1977 Livingstonian Livingstone College Salisbury, North Carolina C Livingstone, my Livingstone, Thy dear old name we sing, While memories cluster thick and fast, And closer to us cling.

With willing hearts and that true Livingstonian Spirit, they published another first yearbook, the 1927 LIVINGSTONIAN. Since then over forty yearbooks have been published, reflecting the past years at Livingstone College. This year the 1977 LIVINGSTONIAN Yearbook Staff would like to salute all of the young men and women of past yearbook staffs for their initiative, enthusiasm, and accomplishments in publishing yearbooks for Livingstone College. In this volume, we have tried to capture moments of happiness, success and victories, as well as sadness and defeats. Remember Livingstone as it used to be from the past fifty years to the present. Help us celebrate our Fiftieth Anniversary, our accomplishments and our failures. This is your 1977 LIVINGSTONIAN. May it bring you as much happiness as it brought to those who have worked so industriously to present it to you. Here are your Reflections of 1977. Dr. F. George Shipman The President ' s Message One definition of REFLECTION is consideration in the mind of ideas, purposes and goals. Reflections by students in attendance at Livingstone during the last fifty years are recorded in part in the yearbooks published within that span of life. This year represents the fiftieth anniversary of the publishing of a yearbook. It chronicles the broad spectrum of reflections by students. Students in 1977 are just as concerned with the nature of REFLECTIONS as were the students in 1927 — Consideration in the minds of ideas, purposes, and goals. That ' s what getting an education is all about. Education in its deepest sense is the improvement of man so that he wi: be a thinking individual, a person of ideas, who is not afraid of the validity of his conclusions. Education fails unless the student reflects productively on purposes and goals. These purposes, says the writer, Norman Cousins, must be translated into preparation for understanding, preparation for earning, preparation for living and preparation for participating in the problems involved in making the world better. I congratulate the current yearbook staff on its theme, REFLECTIONS, and it is my hope that the yearbook will record for posterity those student reflections of 1976-1977 that will be viewed with pride in the years to come. Dedication Of The 1977 Livingstonian For her services to Livingstone College, for her interest in the students, for her competence as a teacher, and her willingness to help in a variety of situations, the Livingstonian Yearbook Staff has unanimously selected Mrs. Abna Aggrey Lancaster for the dedication of the 1977 Livingstonian. Mrs. Lancaster is a native of Salisbury, North Carolina, and the daughter of two former teachers of Livingstone College. She is a graduate of Shaw University of Raleigh, North Carolina and holds a master ' s degree in English from the University of Connecticut of Storrs, Connecticut. Her professional career includes teaching positions at Fourteenth Street School of Winston-Salem, North Carolina and at Price High School in Salisbury, North Carolina; in the latter school she taught English and served as senior advisor for twenty-eight years. At Livingstone College, Mrs. Lancaster has served as associate professor of English, and secretary of the English Department. She has served as chairman on the following committees: Library Committee, International Day Committee, the Admissions and Retentions Committee, and the Inauguration Week Committee. She is the author of the historical pageant Links in the Legacy of Zion and Livingstone that was presented during the inauguration festivities of President F. George Shipman. Mrs. Lancaster also serves as faculty representative to the Livingstone College Board of Trustees. She has taught one semester at Hood Theological Seminary. Mrs. Lancaster has been honored by dedications from THE BEAR ' S TALE and the LIVING HARP and she has received two plaques for service to the college. She is married to Mr. Spencer W. Lancaster, a retired teacher and athletic coach, and they have three daughters, Mrs. Raemi L. Evans, Dr. Carol Meeks, and Mrs. Harriet L. Graves. Mrs. Lancaster is a member of Soldiers Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church. Again, Mrs. Lancaster, the yearbook staff as well as Livingstone College as a whole would like to thank you for your dedication, enthusiastic involvement, and leadership in all phases of Livingstonian life. 6 Special Appreciation To Patty Gale Collins From the city of Madisonville, Kentucky is attractive Patty Gale Collins, the reigning Miss Livingstone College. Born under the Zodiac sign of Virgo, Patty is a Dean ' s List Student, and an Elementary Education Major. Miss Collins holds membership in many organizations at Livingstone College, and they include the Prayer Meeting Choir, Senior Choir, Julia B. Duncan Players, Women ' s Home and Foreign Missionary Association, Tucker Hall House Council, Student National Education Association, and the Student Government Association. Her hobbies include singing, modeling, cooking, traveling, meeting people, and acting. After graduation, Patty plans to attend Atlanta University for her master ' s degree in Speech Pathology. Later, she wants to attend a dramatical arts school to become a professional actress. Beneath the maples and the oaks are memories and past to u moments, precious moments of how life was at Livingstone College. thin There is a mighty, old oak tree, whose colossal height towers high com above the buildings that surround it. Its enormous diameter widened days and expanded as each year passed, until decades were written down. Many years have passed; people have come and people have gone, fresl but they were never aware of the many secrets and dreams that they bene left behind. This antique of long standing has stories to tell, secrets to utter, past events to whisper to the winds. To us, it is a taciturn thing, reversed, silent, and mute. But as the leaves tremble, they converse quietly, whispering to each other the news of that day and days gone by. Yes, this Old Methuselah remembers the arrival of the new freshmen, the examination you worried about, and the time you sat beneath it meditating about your future. You are like the tiny tree that grows beneath the breast of that grand, old oak tree. Your roots plunge deep into the rich soil of Livingstone College, and as each day passes, you grow in wisdom and grace. You knock upon the door of knowledge, and it is opened. Together you and I learn, and we are not discouraged. Like a plant we stand straight and tall. Yet we are flexible and our minds are opened to grasp all that is within our reach. We each grow differently, possessing different dreams and ambitions, and looking forward to different goals. We depart, each in his or her own direction. Silence. For a brief moment there existed throughout the campus of Livingstone College — silence. Like a restless, mute spirit, it moved across the campus, into the hallways and classrooms, yearning for the sounds of campus life. It was not satisfied with the occasional conversations of those working in their ad- ministrative offices. Neither was it contented with the repairmen ' s hammering of nails and swishing of paint brushes. This spirit longed for the laughter of young voices, the blaring of stereo speakers in windows, the thunder of musical instruments in concert, the ringing of harmonious voices from choir practices, the scream- ing and yelling, cussin ' and fussin ' , and cheering and whispers, the total sounds of campus life! Slowly voices emerged from the buildings along the campus, as each member of the faculty, administra- tion, and staff returned, a little reluctantly from their short vacations. Like the spirit, they, too, waited, looking forward for the arrival of the new freshmen, Class of 1980! bulging suitcases, crisp twenty dollar bills, and new names. K They broke the silence with their questions, comments, compliments, and — complaints about good, old L. 3 C. Eleven o ' clock curfew?!!! You ' ve got to be kidding! Check out the ' ham ' in the blue jeans. Well, I ' m «f just a little homesick! Four hours in this line and this class is CLOSED?!! Hello? Mom? I think you ' re go- J ing to have to send me a ' care package ' . Yeah. Send some cans of pork and beans, two loaves of bread, ten cans of sardines, and some crackers.  - Administration F.

They spend many hours preparing themselves for a successful academic year, and many of them become involved with the students totally by par- ticipating in extracurricular activities. They attend sports events, participate in con- certs, fashion and talent shows, and some are advisors to the college ' s many clubs and organizations. Livingstone College is proud of the excellent choice of custodians, doctors, professors, secretaries, instructors, administrators — the entire staff, and their dedica- tion to this institution. i In The Bicentennial Football Classic ST ,™i 5 commEmoRflrEs the first nEGRo V ' .inTER-CCLLEClflTE FOOTBALL CflulE as. a in DECEmsER PLflyED 1892-BIDDLE • aOmm csmiTHiumuERsiTy u°.Ljyincs TO nE tRECTED p H OFi OR 0 P P E 5 • ' D E n T uj. iffif : 1898 ? 5a ,Ju.R CFTHE PLAYERS. ' . CLASS Or !9oG ERECTED JUnE 5 !956 - There are many exciting activities and events going on at Livingstone College, and the 1976-77 school year got off to a successful start with the thrilling event, the Bicentennial Football Classic! Re-enacting the first intercollegiate football game ever played between two black colleges, the football teams of Livingstone College and Johnson C. Smith University met again on October 16, 1976, at Charlotte Memorial Stadium, and in a see-saw, ex- citing contest, the Livingstone Fighting Bears were victorious over the Golden Bulls with the final score — Livingstone College 24, Johnson C. Smith University-19. Eighty years ago, on December 27, 1892, the first game was played on the campus of Livingstone College. Johnson C. Smith, then Biddle University, won this game, with the final score — Biddle University-5, Livingstone College - 0. A spirit of friendly rivalry was continued intermittently down through the years, and the Fighting Bears will look forward to future games with the Golden Bulls. The Second Annual Halloween Party Kids! They come in all ages, shapes, and sizes, especially during Halloween! As a community project, the Student Government Association and the Student National Education Association planned the second annual Halloween Party for the children of Salisbury and Rowan County. On Thursday, October 28, 1976, Old Trent Gymnasium was transformed into a haunted house, and suddenly, out of the cracks in the walls came ghosts, gobblins, witches, pirates, clowns, and queens ready to bring laughter into each child ' s voice. The party was a successful one, and every kid enjoyed it. The Coronation of Miss Livingstone College Homecoming 1976!!! After the Homecoming Parade, the Livingstone Fighting Bears met the Virginia Union Panthers on the soil of Livingstone ' s Alumni Stadium. Throughout the game and during halftime, the crowd was entertained by the fantastic Marching Band of Livingstone College, and the energetic voices of L.C. ' s cheerleaders and pom pom girls. Miss Livingstone College, the Class queens, Miss Alumni, and other queens were introduced during the halftime festivities, and then it was back to the game! With much disappointment, the Fighting Bears were defeated by the Virginia Union Panthers; the final score being — Virginia Union-13, Livingstone College-0. But Homecoming was certainly not over. Even though the game was lost, the students, alumni, faculty, and citizens of surrounding cities got back into the spirit of jamming and partying , as they danced to the great sounds of Anglo Saxon Brown and Trussel. Despite the final score of the game, Homecoming 1976 was definitely a success! Founder ' s Day Perhaps the most celebrated event held during the 1976-77 school year was the 123rd Anniversary observance of the birth of Dr. Joseph Charles Price, the founder and first president of Livingstone College. The observance, known as Founder ' s Day , was held on February 10, 1977. It brought hundreds of Livingstonians back home, and during their stay, they were greeted by the campus ' s hosts and hostesses under the direction of Mrs. Doris P. Jones. During that day, a formal academic procession made its way into Varick Auditorium, followed by the formal convocation. Guest speaker was Mr. George L. P. Weaver, consultant for the World Organization for Rehabilitation and Training located in Washington, D. C. Honorary Degrees were given to Miss Julia B. Duncan, Rev. Sim- mie W. Schultz, Rev. Richard L. Fisher, Mrs. Josephine P. Sherrill, Rev. Paree Porter, and Rev. Kermit DeGraffenreidt. After the con- vocation, a procession of Livingstonians and friends marched to the mausoleum of Dr. Joseph Charles Price, and a short ceremony was held honoring him. To end the activities of Founder ' s Day, a special dinner was served in Aggrey Student Union for the entire Livingstone Family. There were many other activities and happenings going on dur- ing the 1976-77 school year at Livingstone College. Among them were the First Mr. Livingstone College Contest, the Miss Babcock Pageant, and Christmas Disco ' 76. Dr. Albert Chaffoo, the Choral Union, and the Livingstone College Concert Orchestra presented The Messiah , by George F. Handel, during the Annual Christmas Vesper, and in Ovens Auditorium, in Charlotte, North Carolina, Mr. Henry Duncombe directed the Livingstone College Symphonic Band in concert during the month of May. Mrs. Mattie T. Lakin and members of the Bears ' Tale sponsored the Second Annual Poetry Festival, and Mrs. Elizabeth Stroud and students from the various dormitories entertained the parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends of Livingstone students with a talent and fashion show during Parents ' Week. Annual events on the college calendar included Martin Luther King Day, Week of Prayer, Black History Week, Class Day, Inter- national Day, the Fine Arts Festival, and Samuel E. Duncan Honors Day. The Student Government Association sponsored several ac- tivities for students to attend. They included discos, movies, dances, talent shows, and many other programs. All of this, and more made Livingstone College an exciting and interesting place to be. Horatio Miller Nationally known pianist Dr. Joseph C. Settle, director of Student Ser- vices and the Cultural Enrichment Series, and his staff, sponsored a variety of guest speakers and per- forming artists to come to Livingstone College dur- ing the school year. Among the guests were Dr. Alvin Poussaint, Dean of Student Affairs and a psychiatry professor at Harvard, Don Shirley, a well known pianist, composer and author, and many others.

Miriam Mimi Thomas, a native of Montogomery Alabama, was named First Runner-up in the Miss Salisbury-Rowan Pageant, held in February at Catawba College. Kathy Johnson was chosen Miss United Negro College Fund by members of her class. This class, Class of 1978, raised over one thousand dollars for the United Negro College Fund Drive this year, and this class has sent representatives to the national con- test since its freshman year. Indirectly connected with Livingstone College, two graduates have done quite well in their chosen fields. Emma Lilly, a 1975 graduate of Livingstone, is presently working in Washington, D. C. for Congressman Bill Hefner of the 8th Congressional District of North Carolina. Jylla D. Moore , a 1976 graduate, was elected as the National Third Vice-President of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, In- corporated. In the November issue of EBONY magazine, the A. M. E. Zion ' s Board of Bishops appeared in an article about the History of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. These men are also members of the Board of Trustees for Livingstone College. Under the direction of Mr. Coleman Freeman, the Julia B. Duncan Players gave a splendid performance of the well-known drama, Ceremonies in Dark, Old Men . Other plays, poetry readings, and skits were performed successfully by the group. Mrs. Victoria P. Yates coordinated a series of dance routines unique to the Pan- American countries during the Fine Arts Festival. She had guests from Puerto Rico, Argentina, Ecuador, Mexico, Cuba, Panama, Africa, India, The Gambia, Brazil, Hon- duras, and Costa Rica, as well as students of Livingstone College participating in the many dance routines. As community projects, the Drug Abuse Program, under the direction of Mr. Walter Jones, sponsored a poster contest for the young citizens of Salisbury and Rowan Coun- ty. Also, after an enjoyable, and interesting trip to parts of Africa, Dr. Willa Bryant, Mrs. Eliza Miller, and others presented the highlights of their trip through a slide presen- tation, an art exhibit and a fashion show for Livingstone College, and the surrounding area. These and many other special people and events have made this year of 1976-77 a totally enriching one. Barbara Mclver and Aminah Faal, models of African dress. Patty G. Collins, Miss L. C. Jylla D.

Holman, Jr., has wound up a season with less than seven victories. The Bears opened the season on a successful note by stomping Virginia College by a 44 to 0 score at Lynchburg on September 11. They followed on successive Saturdays with a 38-6 loss at Bethune-Cookman, a 29-14 win over Maryland-Eastern Shore a 20-9 loss at Virginia State, a 6-0 loss to Winston-Salem State, a 24-19 victory over Johnson C Smith in the Bicentennial Classic at Charlotte, a 15-0 victory at Fayetteville State a 41-20 trouncing of St. Pauls, a 10-3 triumph over Kentucky State, a 13-0 Homecoming loss to Virginia Union, and a surprising 56-10 loss to Shaw University in the season ' s finale. Virginia College Livingstone used an awesome defense to smother Virginia College 44-0 in the Fighting Bears ' season ' s opener. The Bears held Virginia to a minus 52 yards total ' offense while rolling up 240 yards themselves. Six different Bear players scored touchdowns with Andrew Cooney making good on four of five extra point attempts from placement. Bethune-Cookman The Bears were able to score only one touchdown, an 18-yard pass from James Jackson to Sammy Harris, in their 36-6 loss to Bethune-Cookman at Daytona Beach Florida. A host of Bear fans made the trip. Maryland-Eastern Shore Running back John Lucas carried the ball 40 times for 110 yards to lead the Livingstone Fighting Bears to a 29-14 victory over Maryland-Eastern Shore but the scor- ing honors went to William Williams who caught two touchdown passes, one from James Jackson of 27 yards and one from Randy Nichols from one-yard out. Virginia State The Bears had to wait for a driving rainstorm to subside before the start of Virginia State ' s Homecoming contest and then went to a third quarter, 9-0 lead on a nine-yard touchdown run by John Lucas and a 28-yard field goal by Andrew Cooney. John Marshall Jr., son of a former L. C. Bear coach, caught a 14-yard pass for the Trojan ' s first score as the Virginia eleven came from behind for a 20-9 win. Winston-Salem State Curtis Jones caught a nine-yard pass from quarterback Kermit Blunt to lead the Winston-Salem State University Rams to a 6-0 victory over the Bears in Alumni Stadium John Lucas paced Livingstone with 73 yards on 20 carries. Johnson C. Smith Livingstone got revenge for the 5-0 loss at the hands of Johnson C. Smith, then Biddle University, in the first intercollegiate game played between black colleges in 1892 In the replay of that game at Charlotte on October 16, in what was touted as the Bicentennial Classic, the Bears were victorious, 24-19, in an exciting, see-saw contest. With the Johnson C. Smith Golden Bulls leading 19-17, and with 10 minutes left in the contest, Billy Roseboro raced around right end (on a fourth and three situation) for a 21-yard touchdown to put the Bears ahead for keeps. Fayetteville State Quarterback Tino Bell passed for one touchdown and Andrew Cooney kicked two field goals to lead the Bears to a 15-0 victory over Fayetteville State. Livinestone hnltpH ahead by 10-0 at halftime and added a field goal and safety in the last half St. Paul ' s Billy Roseboro rushed for 143 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Bears to a 41-20 victory over St. Paul ' s. The Bears held the Tigers to 27 yards on the ground? but -allowed them 24d yards via the air lanes m the contest. Kentucky State Livingstone made it two in a row over the Kentucky State Thorobreds « the teams met for the second time ever during the 1976 season. The Bears won 10-3 this time and posted a 27-0 victory in the initial meeting in 1975. Virginia Union The Virginia Union Panthers spoiled Homecoming for the Fighting Bears, 13-0. Shaw University The Shaw University Bears surprised the Livingstone College Bears 56-10 in the season s finale i for both teams. The Livingstone Bears suffered a letdown following the nam tought Homecoming contest and allowed the inspired Shaw eleven to riddle the aetense with passes to gain the lopsided victory. 79 Football Lettermen Bell, Tino Sophomore-Quarterback 6 ' 0 -175 Goldsboro, NC Bowser, Samuel Sophomore-Center 5 ' 11 -195 Union, SC Branson, Joseph Junior-Line Backer 6 ' 2 -190 Winston, Salem, NC Caldwell, Henry Junior-Defensive End 6T ' -205 Salisbury, NC Campbell, Cris Junior-Tight End 61 -180 Jacksonville, NC Connor, Gregory Sophomore-Defensive Back 6 ' 0 -196 Richmond, VA Cooney, Andrew Junior-Punter 6 ' 3 -180 Hialeah, Fla.

However, if one would look at the records, certainly there is no indication of success as far as the win-lost column shows. There are many reasons for the number of games lost this year. The team was young and had not fully developed working together as a whole, and the coach was new; therefore, time was needed for adjusting to new techniques and procedures. The team and Coach Thomas feel there will be great improvement next year, and they anticipate a winning season.

They got off to a slow start, but as the season progressed, the ladies improved tremendously, and ended the season with a 5-5 conference record and 5-7 overall. This won them their first trip to the women ' s division of the C.I.A.A. Tournament in Virginia. The girls did not come home with the C.I. A.A. championship, but they did return with several honors. Miss Patricia Lawson was named Coach Of The Year and Beverly Downing was named to the A1I-C.I.A.A. Team for the year.

Ponder. With two former ALL-C.I.A.A. players, Ray Barlow and Ronnie Harris, two veterans, Henry Davis and Bruce Woodson, and two strong freshmen, Albert Fergueson and Tony Hewett, the team spelled nothing but trouble for the unfortunate opponents. Finishing with a 18-3 overall record, the Tennis Team won second place in the Southern Division and Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association Championship. Women ' s Softball Team For the first time in the history of Livingstone College, sixteen young ladies under the coaching of Clevell Roseboro, participated in Softball on the collegiate level. Opening the season with a tough schedule, the Lady Bears were facing champion teams from Winston-Salem State University, the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and Catawba College. As strong as any team, the young women won their first three games with Roberta Home and Carol Cook providing a strong com- bination up the middle, and Beverly Downing, Alice Gibbs, and Janice Gaither leading the team in hitting. Felecia Harrell was the strong pitcher for the league. Unfortunately, because of injuries, the ladies lost several games, closing the season with a 10-12 record. There were some bright spots for the Softball team, however. Beverly Downing led the league with 438 runs. She batted in 42 runs, and made twenty-two home runs, seven of them being grandslams. Alice Gibbs, playing with a broken finger, finished second as the Best Defensive player in the league, and Felecia Harrell made the Second Team All-Star Team twice. Awards were given to Beverly Downing, Most Valuable Player; Patricia Mclntyre, Most Improved Player; Alice Gibbs, Most Consis- tent; Felecia Harrell, Most Dedicated;and Most Coachable, Jeanette Hooker. t Tf W C rj- OS K 5 ca pqeawcoocoKOJiBcocaH CO to CO t- CO 00 CO CO U CO OOB5paE-03f H[a j nap oa I C Q cnccccccccc 2 3 3 3 3 ° S ° ° ° c OlUltCl lOlMKllBlllKlr ) tuDb£bCb£i BbDbXiMbX)tH)b£ CCCCCCCCCCC 3 Ji ft , g c I J m M E- ed C 0 T - ffl M S .2=S5.S , CSSl§ i l SO -c g « £ B o i.s § £ |2 1 § Q _°l §« ill l li ll |s2 £3 S.2C Q S«ffl -is ' ! | .a ?2| £ £ ,5o i 1 C CO f be J §.= G a §2 £-.2 .2 3 y;s o o«JiSi:= a a £ c -g2« g C a; C 3 a 13 . 3 O Z o 3-- 3 S « ca a a-SJ Ba s o.a o g g-3 ° g ls-e 0 = SsS ' 5 .2 --S — £2 24 g Se §o| U%n tin ii g c K o a a.

Smith University at Charlotte, in the school year 1956-57. The program began primarily for the purpose of providing instrumental teaching techniques for music majors. A natural outgrowth of such a program was a band ensemble, which made oc- casional appearances at college programs and at football games, what was then A. and T. State College at Greensboro, joined the Livingstone music department staff as a part-time instructor. An increase in instrumental majors and perforn ing students enrolled in the college m ade possible the organization of the first marching band and concert bands, under the enthusiastic leadership of Carlson. Instruments were obtained by gifts and or at minimum cost from Dan Nicholas, owner and manager of Maynard Music Store, who remained a patron of the Livingstone College Music department until his death in 1970. As a result of the growth of the college ' s music program, the increase in instrumental students made it necessary to add a full-time instrumen- tal band instructor. In 1966, James E. Evans, a former student of Carlson ' s at A. and T. State, joined the faculty. Rapid program development under Evans and an increase in the number of college owned instruments, again largely due to the generosity of Livingstone ' s friend, Dan Nicholas, was realized. During Evan ' s second year, the band was uniformed and this added a new deminsion of enthusiasm for the work of the band on the par t of the students as well as that of the spec- tators. Evans remained with the program until the fall of 1972, at which time he joined the music department staff at Fayetteville State University. During the interim, Waverly Camp, Jr., a senior instrumental major, assumed the responsibility of providing leadership for the band until a replace- ment for Evans could be found. In October 1972, Henry A Dun- combe, Jr., joined the Livingstone music department faculty. He inherited 15 musicians, five majorettes and 10 color guards. In 1973 the membership increased to 60. After an intensive recruiting program in the spring of 1974, Dun- combe fielded a 124-piece dynamic marching band. Ivies Of Alpha Kappa Alpha 112 113 115 Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship A Unity. Togetherness. Culture. Scholarship. Achievement. Friendship. Service. These are only a few of the many words used when one speaks of the sororities, fraternities, and social fellowships established on the campus of Livingstone College. Since the early 1900 ' s Greeks and Social Fellowships have existed at Livingstone. Greeks are divided into two main categories; fraternities, for men, and sororities, for women. The same is true for most social fellowships. These organizations are established to promote scholastic achievement, develop unity and lasting friendship among men and women, and to be of service to mankind. Many of the projects these organizations execute are geared to help people financially, mentally, emotionally, physically, or spiritually, and much dedication and work is involved. To become a Greek or a member of a social fellowship, one must maintain a certain average, and go through a pledging or initiating period. After one has become a member, he or she will participate in block shows, visit other campuses, go to Rush parties, aid the community with their services, and have a great time being brothers and sisters.

They published the first LIVINGSTONIAN, a 28 page yearbook which covered the major aspects of Livingstone College, including the administration, faculty, and staff, sports, clubs and organizations, and the senior class. This publica- tion was more of a booklet than a book, and instead of being classified as a yearbook, it was called a sketch book . There are no records of any sketch books or yearbooks being published between the years 1902 to 1927. In 1927, another group of Livingstonians designed by and produced another first yearbook, known as the ELL CEE. Since then over forty year- books have been published, reflecting the past years at Livingstone College. This year the 1977 LIVINGSTONIAN Yearbook Staff would like to salute all of the young men and women of the past yearbook staffs for the initiative, enthusiasm, and accomplishments in publishing yearbooks for Livingstone College. The following pages are reflections of Livingstone College from 1927 to 1967. We have chosen the volumes 1927, 1947, 1957, and 1967 because they reflect the progress of Livingstone College in decades. Because of the depression in the 1930 ' s the 1937 LIVINGSTONIAN was probably not published. Therefore, the 1939 LIVINGSTONIAN will take its place. To all yearbook staffs of Livingstone College, we salute you for your accomplishments in yearbook publications, and we admire you for your true Livingstonian spirit! The 1927 LIVINGSTONIAN, known as the ELL CEE, was dedicated to W. J. Trent. Surprisingly, the book was a hard- back publication covering many features of Livingstone College which included all classes, from first year high school students to seniors, the staff personnel, organizations and clubs, faculty and administration, and sports. The President of the institution was W.J. Trent and Miss Livingstone College was Ruth Odell Bowling. Bishop John W. Wood was a trustee of Livingstone College at that time. During the 1920 ' s approximately 22 faculty members were employed at Livingstone College, and approximately 143 students attended the institution. These young men and women were active in organizations such as the Twentieth Century Knights and the Young Women ' s Christian Association. Participating in sports as well as in academic areas, they had a successful football and baseball team. Most of the yearbook was dedicated to the seniors. It contained the Senior Class History, the class poem, its motto, and nicknames, quotations, grapevine rumors, and gossip about various members of the senior class.

IW r.raa ■ . a a- .i, Published in 1939, The LIL ' ACORN was a successful attempt to revive the Livingstone College yearbook, which had been discontinued because of the depression in the 1930 ' s. This book was dedicated to William H. Goler, and the editor was Harlee Hoover Little. Jr., who is now the Development officer for Livingstone College. Also, president of the Class of 1939 was F. George Shipman, who is presently the president of the college. This publication covered the organizations, the administra- tion and staff, and it, too, was dedicated to the seniors. It con- tained senior class pictures, the class will, its superlatives, and the class prophecy. In 1947, the editor of the LIVINGSTONIAN was Joseph W. Thomas. He and his staff dedicated this yearbook to Professor Isaac Miller. President of the college during this time was Dr. William J. Trent, and approximately 392 students attended Livingstone College. The 1947 LIVINGSTONIAN covered the various classes, the administra- tion, faculty, and staff, and the many organizations established on campus. These clubs included the Booster Club, the Veterans ' Club, the Alabama Club, the Beta Kappa Chi Honorary Scientific Society, the Natural Science Forum and the Archonian Club of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority.

Harris, Faculty A beautiful yearbook, the 1957 LIVINGSTONIAN was called the Jubilee Edition. The editors, O ' Leta Williams and Peggy Mills dedicated this publication to Mrs. Victoria Prince Yates. During the 1950 ' s approximately 507 students attended Livingstone, and the faculty increased from 32 members in 1950 to 66 members in 1960. President of Livingstone College was Dr. W. J. Trent and Miss L. C. was Joelyn Sinton. Members of the faculty and staff included Mrs. Lois Reeves and Mrs. Eliza G. Harris (now Mrs. Elisa Miller) who are still employed at Livingstone College. The college grew swiftly in the 1950 ' s. It had a dynamic athletic department, and numerous clubs and organizations. The 1967 LIVINGSTONIAN is probably one of the finest yearbooks ever published for Livingstone College. It was dedicated to Mr. Grady Nelson, then a mathematics and physics instructor, and Mr. John D. Marshall, II, head football coach at that time. Samuel E. Duncan was president of the institution and Dean of Students and college minister was Rev. Edgar French. Many attractions were added to this publication to make it an excellent yearbook. The editors, Robert S. Hickey and Muriel Cauthen included in this publication all classes, the administration and staff, athletics, organizations and clubs, and events during that year. Though the years have passed with many changes for Livingstone College, the yearbooks have basically remained the same. They have grown from 28 pages to 256, Edgar N. French ft Livingstone College Historical And Descriptive Livingstone College, located in Salisbury, North Carolina, is an institution of higher learning and it is regularly chartered by the state of North Carolina. Incorporated in 1879, its first sessions were held in 1880 in a room of the parsonage of the late Bishop C. R. Harris, who was then a minister in Concord, North Carolina. The idea of instituting an educational enterprise for the training of Negro youth was the result of a conference of Negro ministers who wished to promote a type of education which would make for self-reliance in their race In 1882 the institution was moved to Salisbury, where work began the first Wednesday in October with three teachers, three students ' and a matron Chartered as a four year college in 1885, Livingstone College has operated continuously ever since, and many ' of its students come from many states in the United States, from Canada, Central America, the West Indies, South America and Africa Named in honor of the great Christian missionary, philanthropist, and explorer, David Livingstone, Livingstone College opens its doors to all qualified applicants regardless of race, color, or creed. The campus of Livingstone College includes about 75 acres of land and 21 buildings. Its maple and oak trees, expansive lawns and carefully planned design make the campus one of the most beautiful to behold. On the east end of the campus are the lovely Poets and Dreamers Garden and the mausoleum of the founder of the institution, Dr. Joseph Charles Price. Taking a pictorial tour of Livingstone College, from the east to the west end, buildings include the administrative building, Price, Heritage Hall, Old Hood, Robinson Health Center, and two dormitories for women, Babcock Hall and Tucker Hall. Coming up from Tucker Hall, one is likely to see students congregating in front of Aggrey Student Union and Old Trent Gymnasium. 155 i— Located across the L C. Horse Shoe is a men ' s dormitory, Goler Hall, and down from it are Carnegie Library and Dodge Hall. Varick Auditorium and Ballard Hall are across from Dodge, and situated on the left are New Trent Gymnasium and two men dormitories, Harris and Dancy Halls. Classes are held in Duncan Science Building and Tubman Building located on the west end of the campus. Other places of interest are Hood Theological Seminary, the Alumni Stadium, the canteen, the tennis and basketball courts, and the many historical maimers located around the campus. ■■Blum I Freshmen Adair, Samuel Capricorn Alexander, Carl Pisces Alexander, Phyllis Scorpio Alexander, Vincent Taurus Allen, James Aquarius Allen, Ronald Gemini Anderson, James Pisces Arrington, Michael Pisces Avant, Sharon Gemini Baccus, Katharine Pisces Bailey, Dexter Scorpio Baker, Rochelle Sagittarius Bannister, Vernon Aquarius Barber, Andrea Scorpio Barnes, Lynette Leo Barnhill, Robbin Libra Bennett, Blake Bennett, Carolyn Capricorn Best, Brian Aries Bost, Jacqueline Leo 4 Freshmen Guion, Ronald Sagittarius Hall, Johnny Pisces Hamilton, Willard Capricorn Hargrove, Derrick Virgo Harrison, Rudolph Sagittarius Hart, Clay Taurus nl r Hasty, Anita Virgo Hester, Timothy Pisces Holmes, Edmond Capricorn Holt, Sharon Gemini Hooker, Jeanette Leo Home, Roberta Aquarius Howard, Levetia Aries Howard, Floyd Aries 163 Freshmen Jackson, Larry Aquarius Jeffers, Cecelia Gemini Jenkins, Floyd Libra Johnson, Carl Leo Johnson, Sandra Taurus Johnson, Tyrone Sagittarius Jones, Millicent Aquarius Kizer, Debra Capricorn Lewis, Mark Libra Lewis, Roderick Cancer Freshmen Meningal, Seth Gemini Mills, Hozell Cancer Mills, Sherria Virgo Mitchell, Roy Taurus Moody, Tony Cancer Nivens, Billy Sagittarius Odom, Curtis Aries Parker, Annjeanette Aries Patterson, Gregory Sagittarius Payne, Angela Sagittarius Perry, John Pisces Poe, Marzetter Aries i Freshmen Rankin, Ruth Cancer Rivens, Rhonda Gemini Roberts, Marilyn Aries Robinson, Joseph Rogers, Lillian Gemini Rollins, Alonia Capricorn Sadler, Vickey Gemini Sanders, Mertice Sagittarius Sheppard, Jose Capricorn Simmons, Harriett Pisces Smalls, William Aquarius Smith, Marvin Scorpio Freshmen Snuggs, William Leo Spence, Willie Capricorn Stanley, William Sagittarius Stitt, Eugene Gemini Tatum, Joan Aries Thomas, Jay Aries Tucker, Ronnie Libra Thomas, Jimmy Taurus Turner, Larry Scorpio Wagner, Marvin Aquarius Washington, Lawrence Capricorn Weatherless, Joe Scorpio West, Lofonza Aquarius Wheeler, Oliver Libra 168 Sophomores Adams, Renderal Summerville, GA Sagittarius Aidool, Ernest Kumasi, Ghana Sagittarius Allen, Sheila Farmville, VA Scorpio Ardrey, Peggy Charlotte, NC Taurus Atkins, Arnetta Chicago, IL Virgo Atkinson, Milton Chicago, IL Bell, Tino Goldsboro, NC Scorpio Belton, Jonathan Charlotte, NC Bennett, Jacqueline Mount Vernon, NY Taurus Berry, Greg Pilot Mt., NC Aquarius Bingham, Gregory ' Chicago, IL Capricorn Bland, Maria Bolton, NC Capricorn 170 Sophomores Bookhart, Phyllis Salisbury, NC Libra | Brooks, Paul Hickory, NC Virgo Bowser, Samuel Union, SC Scorpio Butler, Juliette Goldsboro, NC Leo Carthens, James Raeford, NC Aries Cohen, Patricia Newark, NJ Taurus Collins, Melvin Charlotte, NC Capricorn Daggs, Maudine Schenectady, NY Libra Dancy, Elaine Chicago, IL Sagittarius Dark, William Pittsboro, NC Capricorn Davenport, Darel Raleigh, NC Capricorn David, Anginetta Bennettsville, SC Leo 171 Sophomores Freeman, Lurlene Concord, NC Leo Gambrell, Anita Troy, NY Sagittarius Garrett, Alfred Charleston, SC Sagittarius Gibbs, Allison Washington, NC Scorpio Goldsborough, Michael Mt.

Walls Center 800 West Thomas Street Salisbury, North Carolina 28144 215 History Of Hood Theological Seminary Old Hood Hood Theological Seminary was established as The Zion Wesley Institute in 1879. The fathers of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, nurturing the dream of the Reverend James Walker Hood, did establish and build that dream of an institution that would provide motivation and training for all qualified Negro youth. In 1882, the institution which was first established in Concord, North Carolina, was moved to Salisbury, North Carolina. In 1904, the General Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church appropriated the necessary finances for the construction of seminary housing that was to be named after Bishop James Walker Hood. In 1906, the cor- nerstone for Hood Theological Seminary was set in place. History Of Hood Theological Seminary New Hood In 1965, after an intensive fund-raising drive by the AME ZION CHURCH, Hood Theological Seminary moved into new construction that was built on grounds donated by the late Bishop William Jacob Walls. The William Jacob Walls Center, named after the late Bishop, and his surviving widow, was erected. Hood Theological Seminary maintains the original Hood Theological Seminary facility for campus religious life activities of Livingstone College. Hood Theological Seminary is one of America ' s grassroots institutions. Its uniqueness lies in its history of becoming one of the authentic examples of the Negro Black man ' s capacity to create and sustain institutions to serve his needs amidst his peculiar circumstances of existence in this country. Hood Theological Seminary is just such an institution. Dr. Walter L. Yates, Dean Reflecting Back One of the most vital experiences that a person can have, is to be committed to Christian Ministries and to be connected to and with a viable, growing theological education program, where young men and women are in preparation to serve the larger com- munity as a Christian Witness. As I reflect upon the growth and development of Hood Theological Seminary, I am made aware of the tremendous con- tribution made to the stability and growth of Hood Theological Seminary by the late William J. Trent, Sr., President of Livingstone College, and promoter of the first budget for Hood in the forties. With the new budget, Dr. John H. Satterwhite, then Dean, was able to expand the faculty and staff. The new W. J. Walls Center and Heritage Hall, is the result of hard work and sacrifice on the part of Zionites and friends across the nation. This movement was led by Dr. S. E. Duncan, then President of Livingstone College, and the Late Bishop W. J. Walls, then Chairman of the Board of Trustees. Based upon these foundations, President F. George Shipman, has been able to push Hood further and further forward, with the strong leadership of Bishop Herbert Bell Shaw, now chairman of the Board of Trustees. And as I remember our roots and their depth into history and tradition, It doeth not yet appear what we shall be ... But, as I remember the past, I am persuaded, that the future will become better and better, It matters not how dark the night, I believe in the coming of the morning. 1 Administration, Faculty, and Staff Mrs. Phyllis L.

In Memoriam Miss Julia B. Duncan Miss Julia B. Duncan was born in Springfield, Kentucky, on January 28, 1906. She was the daughter of Samuel Edward and Lena Jordan Duncan. She was educated at Shaw University, Raleigh, North Carolina, and Livingstone College, Salisbury, North Carolina. Her years of employment at Livingstone date back to 1924, when she was appointed office assis- tant under the administration of Dr. William J. Trent, the college ' s fourth president. From that time until 1973, she served in the capacities of registrar, treasurer, business manager, and director of admissions for a total of 49 years. During some of these years she worked under the administration of her brother, the late Dr. Samuel E. Duncan, president of the college. In those 49 years, she helped thousands of students with their problems. Organizations and operations on the campus of Livingstone College bear her name. The college dramatic organization was known as the Julia B. Duncan Players in her honor. Miss Duncan was a member of Soldiers Memorial A. M. E. Zion Church, the Ritz Club, Dragonette Club, Livingstone College Women ' s Club, the College ' s Athletic Committee, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, as well as numerous professional and civic organizations. On April 4, 1976, Miss Duncan died in Rowan Memorial Hospital, in Salisbury, North Carolina. Because of her 49 years of service to Livingstone College, Miss Duncan was honored posthumously with the Doctor of Humane Letters Degree on February 10, 1977, and Livingstone College has proclaimed that the records and accomplishments of the late Julia B. Duncan be made a part of the archives of Livingstone and Hood Theological Seminary. Miss Duncan will be sorely missed by all who knew her. Her spirit will forever linger with all beneath the maples and oaks of Livingstone College. ' Excerpts taken from THE IVY LEAF MAGAZINE, 1976 Fall Edition and THE BEARS ' TALE LITERARY MAGAZINE, 1976 Edition 229 The 1977 Livingstonian Yearbook Staff Barbara Mclver Editor-in-chief There were times when I honestly believed the 1977 Livingstonian would not be published! But with a spirit of determination, the staff and I knew it was possible, and we have spent many, many hours, work- ing diligently to make our dream a reality. Our major objective was to make the 1977 Livingstonian a good yearbook, and though there are many mistakes, we ask your indulgence and forgiveness for them. Hopefully, if what you see on these pages bring a smile to your lips, then we will know our efforts have not been in vain. My sincere thanks go out to the entire yearbook staff, especially to Marian, Vickey, Brenda, and Mary. I want to thank Ronnie for his humor and jokes which kept us laughing, Curtis and Roy, for being so cooperative, Phyllis, Barbara Ross, and Carol for their efficient typ- ing, and Beverly, Derrick, and Greg for working so faithfully with me on — . the sports section. Special thanks are also extended to Helen, Marc, Chris, and Barbara Lide for their dedicated services and work. One can I not forget Donald and Debra for the beautiful job done in photography. ; The yearbook staff and I hope you will enjoy Reflections ' 77 and f . .V 1 . . we hope it will bring pleasant memories for you in the years to come.

My branches sway gently in the winds, reaching for goals, grasping for unknown truths, searching for life ' s hidden treasures. Tall, Dark, and Beautiful, I am. I have grown. There is a calmness within my soul; a quiet peace. Yet the spirit is restless. It is time to fly, To discover all that Is. To create all that Can Be. Yes, I have grown. But, I am still growing, Constantly reaching, searching dreaming, Being Me.

Yes, there will always be Hope. II t i ! In your journey through life it is your task to find the true and real meaning of life. It is your responsibility to improve the quality of life. It is your privilege to enjoy all of the blessings bestowed upon you by your Creator. As you depart from the gates of this institution, may the memories you recall be bright and pleasant ones, bringing a smile upon your face, and if you should ever pass this way again, remember, you will always have a home at your dear old alma mater, your Livingstone. 255 Bags packed? Yes, and I ' m ready to go. Oh! I almost forgot my graduation robe. It ' s silly to save stuff like this, but it will bring back a memory or two. Memories . . . mmmmm . . . Homecoming wake-up mornings, a game of spades, Dr. Horrington ' s Biology exam, and dances in Old Trent gym. Four long years I ' ve been here at Livingstone. How short they seem now, and I ' ll never forget them. I ' ve complained about the bad times while being here, the changes I ' ve gone through, but I ' ve known a lot of good moments, too. You know, I love you Livingstone, and there are tears in my eyes as I depart. Perhaps I ' ll take one last walk, alone, beneath the maples and the oaks. ivingstone, my Livingstone! Upon thy campus wide. In numbers many students roam- Some from the other side; And still they love; we can but hope that they may e ' er be true To both thy names and colors too- The modest black and blue.
