In recognition of the sixteen years of devoted service which you have given to McMurry College, we dedicate the 1957 Totem to you. You came to McMurry as academic dean in the fall of 1941, and you became administrative vice-president of our college in 1953. During these past sixteen years, you have rendered outstanding service to the college in promoting high academic standards, good fellowship and Christian ideals. VVe know that thousands of McMurrians who have been associated with you through the years bear the utmost respect and love for you. Your soft-spoken, easy-going nature, your sincerity and service have rubbed off on many of them. As teacher, counselor and friend, you have helped us reach a better understanding of ourselves and our fellow students. You have shared your knowledge with us in the classrooms, and your loyalty and sportsmanship at the stadium and gym. We know that your service to young people did not begin at McMurryg it extends back to 1921 and includes public school teaching, coaching, and the dcanship and presidency of VVeatherford College. . Your fellow faculty members have found in your com- radeship the spirit of McMurry College. We know that the city of Abilene and the state of Texas hold you in high esteem for the service you have rendered in civic and professional activities. Your active part in the work of your church is a worthy example and inspiration for us all. Because of these things, Dr. McDaniel, we are honored to bestow this honor upon you, on behalf of all McMun'ians who have profited from knowing you. - The Totem Staff Eewm-:aw ...Page5 ...Page13 74e 7:24a 'fzddec . . . Page 22 F OREWORD In the 1957 Totem we have attempted to record the day-by-day activities of McMurry students as they move in the circles of college life on the Reservation. McMurry has progressed in recent years until it is hardly recognizable to returning alumni. Styles have changed during these past thirtz -four years since the founding of our Metllodist college, but life at McMurry in many ways has not changed. That long line for lunch. . .The work and fun of a club banquet. . .Those resolutions to stud early this,' semester, followed weeks later by llzst-minute cramming. . .Class and chapel periods that inspire us to serve others - these things do not change. When you have advanced past the uncer- tainties of your college days and reach that secure place in life, we hope this record of events of the school year 1956-57 at McMurry will stand the test of time and bring you many happy memories. This is the purpose of the 1957 Totem. If this goal is achieved it will be for the Totem staff - as this year has been for McMurry and her students - truly a dream come true. - The Editors. P . . . .

They constitute the receptacle of the past, the guardian of the present and the conveyor of the past and present to the future. The college is the repository of the past. In the volumes of its libraries, in the knowledge of its faculty, in its process of education it becomes the reservoir of knowledge, expe- rience, wisdom, ideals, spiritual concepts and culture as they flow down as a great river from the past to the present. If it were not for such institutions these values would be for- ever lost. The college is the guardian of the incalculably rich heri- tage of the present. Only as we interpret and impart this knowledge to those of our own day, only as we develop skills, President cultivate imagination, generate ambition and discover new truth, can We possess this inheritance. This is the business of the college as the guardian of the present generation. The college is the conveyor of the world's richest values to the future. It keeps its eyes on the future, both the near look and the far. Through the college the mature generation injects its best and noblest and most valuable into the lives of the young, that they may use it, improve it and in turn pass it on to the future. The horizon is the constant concern of the college. It envisages the possibilities of the coming generation in the impartation of knowledge of the youth of today. The col- lege is the greatest assurance of a nobler race and a better day. - Harold G. Cooke DR. HAROLD G. COO 1 DR. GORDON BENNETT Executive Vice-President I As always, the advent of this publication marks the end of another academic year. Each year, it seems, becomes more and more important in the life of Mchlurry College. Again, you students are to be commended on the fine man- ner in which you have conducted yourselves and the affairs of the student body, in your co-operation with the Admin- istration and in your handling of the responsibilities placed upon you. This devotion to duty and carncstness of purpose will stand you in good stead when you leave the institution. At the time of writing, we have under construction a new dormitory and a new classroom building. Both have been badly needed for some time. By the time this is published the air-conditioned classroom building will have been in use one semester and the air-conditioned dormitory ready for oc- cupancy for the smmner session. VVe are rapidly building an institution to which you as graduates can point with justifiable pride. In keeping with this program, the construction of another donnitory and a science building will begin immediately. This steady expansion of the college in buildings and student enrollment places on you, as students and graduates, a growing responsibility. As graduates and students you definitely have the greatest influence on prospective students who may enroll in Mcklurry College in the coming years. I would like to appeal to you to select carefully those to whom you recommend the college, so that our student body will continue to be the high quality scholastically and moral- ly it has always been. - VV. B. McDaniel ,470ozd7MmDz.3 The many relationships ou the campus of McMurry College culminate in three ideals. Each association should contribute to the fulfillment of one or more of these and embrace some of the elements of all of them. The first ideal is the growth of the'Christian spirit in our hearts. It is inconceivable that any program of educational dc- velopment should be complete that does not inculcate a nearness of spirit, a sense of peace, and an active awareness of the presence of Cod. ' The primary goal of every teacher in Mchlurry is to make real the love, the grace, and the redeeming strength of the Holy Spirit. Not only do the teachers typify this feeling, but the many Christian organizations on our campus under the leadership of our students reflect this ideal. Second, the cultivation of life-long friendships is an important phase of our educational program. Every student is an important personage on this campus. It is essential that we know each otherg that we come to appreciate one anotherg that we see the whole- somcness in our associates and that we enjoy our companionships. Friends are our strongest assets, and the educational pro- gram of each life should include the purposeful developments of broad friendships which is most successfully done by being a friend. Finally, our educational ideal includes the accumulation of knowledge, the acquisition of skills, the development of tech- niques, a sensitiveness to beauty and culture, the establishment of definite goals and a broad intellectual background to aid us in meeting problems and making decisions. This academic activity must be of the highest order on our campus if our education is to be complete. It calls for dedication on the part of teachers and application on the part of students. It demands sacrifice, grinding labor, cooperation, imagination, but most of all a firm dctcnuination and constant vision. It is my privilege to wish that each of you may experience the full realization of the ideals of Mchlurry College in your educational development. - Gordon H. Bennett DR. W. B.

The judging followed the traditional Totem Beauty pres- entation program in chapel, in which the fifteen nominees for the honors were pre- sented to the student bod . The seven judges and the fifteen beauty nominees are pictured on these two pages, as an introduction to this section of your yearbook. In the top photograph on this page are pictured ffrom leftl beauty nominees Ian Osburn, Margaret Sealy, julie Smith, and Mickye Ward, and judges Charlotte Coff- man, student secretary at ACC, Hal Haral- son, student president at H-SU, and Les Sabo, KWKC news and sports announcer. In the photo at left, Totem co-editors Donna Culwell and jane Lackey, who di- rected the contest, get a smile from nominees Becky Affleck, Pat Baker and Biddy Bartlett. The fifteen girls who participated in the beauty contest were those who received the most nominating votes from the student body in a campus-wide nominating election in October. .Wkdmetk lwelmziqalz-7 At ' ht, two more of the judges talk rig with four more of the beauty nominees The judges are Mel Thurman, Abilene pho- tographer, and Steve Cowan of KRBC-TV. The co-eds are Pat Bennett, Sandra Cross, Sue Corley and Yvonne Caldwell. In the photo below, four of the girls are d d b two more of the judges - surroun e y jim Ridgeway, KRBC disc jockey, and Clara ' -N Bethe Coats of the Abilene Reporter ews women's staff. The four girls are Betty Haines, Ioan Harris, Karen Hopkins, and Io Ann Killingsworth. The seven judges spent an hour and one- half with the fifteen beauty nominees at the end of the beauty presentation chapel pro- gram. They interviewed them as a group and individually. Each judge rated each girl on such qual- ities as beauty of face and figure, smile, poise, persona ity, charm, graciousness, and conversationability. Score sheets of the sev- en 'udges were added up and the eight l girls scoring the most pomts were declared McMurry's eight most beautiful girls for 1956-57.

This organization is the link between Baptist stu- dents at McMurry and their church. It is one of the best proofs that McMurry, a Method- ist institution, recognizes and respects all other Christian denominations and faiths. McMun'y is glad to have an organized group of Baptist students on its campus, for it is true: We all believe in one God, one Christ, and one Holy Spirit. The club looks forward to greater activity and Christian service. ' ,xv ,I1 if i 'E' Z?

Organized in 1923, the Chanters make two singing tours each year in Texas and New Mexico, in addi- tion to many one-day trips to nearby cities and appearances in Abilene. They perform a complete church worship service through song. An- other of the Chanters' specialties is a program of secular and folk music, designed to appeal to school and civic audiences. Their concerts in- clude numerous vocal solos and ensemble numbers. Within the Chanters this year were four vocal ensembles - the Indianaires, mixed quartet, the Mel- ody Maidens, girls' sextet, and a freshman girls' trio and a freshman men's quartet.

The Indian Band, with its special groups, is in constant demand for concerts and pro- grams in this section of the country. The band has a fourfold purpose: to pro- vide an effective public relations organiza- tion for those students who play band in- struments to continue their performance at a high artistic level, to provide opportunity for those who wish to become band directors to further their training through band par- ticipation, to nurture school spirit, and to foster a love of good music in the student body and friends of the college. Since reorganization, the band has played in Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Old Mexico. In addition to its secular program, the McMurry Band has an unique church wor- ship service that provides inspiration wher- ever it has been presented. 98 MCMURRY BAND OFFICERS Willis Giddens .................

The Galleon is an important factor in the literary life of McMurry Col- lege. Between its covers, opportunity is given McMurry students to publish poetry, short stories, character sketches, features, articles, essays, book re- views, art, photographs, humor, one-act plays, and other literary compositions. After a two-year trial run on a larger page size, the Galleon went back to its original 6 x 9, digest-size foremat, with the traditional Galleon on thecover. The Galleon strives to strike a balance between traditional and modern magazine practices. It is hoped that the pattern set by the 1956-57 edition will be further perfected in future years, to give McMurry one of the best college literary magazines in the Southwest.

Weldon Brevard powered over the middle for the last four yards, and Baker kicked his first of three successful extra- point efforts. from its own 47 to the double stripe, mainly on two big McCrary passes.

Scoring for Texas A811 were Cal Hutzler, on a nine-yard rung Bob Green, on a 76-yard rung and joe Holcomb, on a pass from Green, with the play covering 41 yards. Green kicked three out of three conversion efforts. Don Flippin and Kirby Lackey recovered enemy fumbles for the Tribe.

G-The lXlcMnr1'y College Indians thrilled a capacity homecom- ing crowd of 4,500 tonight with a 33-26 vie- tory over Midwestern University. john Mt-Crary was the big gun of MciXIurry's many-barrelled offensive barrage. Big john scored three touchdowns, passed to Ezra Corley for another, completed 5 of 7 aerial attempts for 63 yards, gained 197 yards rushing, and kicked two extra points on two chances. MeMurry's other score came on a three-yard plunge by Ernie Davis. Robert Baker kicked one out of three extra point tries.

Redskin runners who wielded vicious hatchets in carv- ing out the Trihe's 392 ards rushing were Davis C60 yardsl, Vifelclon Brevard f50l, Richard Toliver t45J, james Boyd t25l, and Fred Sehkade, Tommy McAdams and Baker. In spite of this fine offensive perfonnanee, the Indian cause would have been lost but for 7ft2fS MIDWESTERN 26 and Houston and Corley captured one enemy fumble each. Other defensive rocks for Mc- Murry were Tommy XVatkins, Charlie Davis, Gus Wilson and Tommye Parker. Midwestem, trailing one TD with only a minute and a half remaining in the game, was storming the five-yard line when Houston made his timely recovery. Scoring for the visitors were Gene Aldridge ttwo touehdownsj, Jackie Weldon, and Rich- ard Parten. NVeldon got two extra points. The victory gave Mclvlurry five wins in the nine-game rivalry with Midwestem, which announced in December that it was dropping football.

McMurry had a great opportunity to make it 13-12 with four minutes left in the game. Ernie Davis and Weldon Brevard powered the Tribe 51 yards to the Yellow jacket 30, but the jackets threw up an iron curtain and took over on the 28. The final Jacket score came with only 45 seconds left in the game.

Both of the North Texans' touchdown passes in the first half came on fourth down, after the Indians had apparently stopped Eagle drives on the 10 and 4-yard lines. They were thrown by Bay Toole, with john Darb and jerrell Shaw catching. North Texas stretched its lead to 17-0 in the third quarter on a field goal by Mickey Koonce. Robert Baker intercepted an Eagle aerial on the McMurry 45 to start the Indians on a 55-yard drive to their only touchdown. A 29-yard pass from Bob Hayworth to Ezra Corley moved the ball to the NT 32. Toliver blasted over from the one- yard line and Baker kicked the point. In the final frame, Toole intercepted a Hay- worth pass and returned it to the Mcltiurry 26. Six plays later he sneaked over from the one-yard ine to wind up the scoring at 23-7, with 2:56 left in the game. Toliver, the only Indian able to gain against the Eagles, picked up 100 yards on 19 carries. james Boyd got 16 on seven rushes. Ezra Corley hauled in three passes for 84 yards, Tommy Watkins caught one for five, and Toliver had one for a 24-yard gain. Tuming in top defensive performances for the Indians were tackles Bill Gorman and Tommye Parker, center Bill Houston, guards Floyd Wuth- rich, Gus Wilson and Charlie Davis, and ends Wylie Wise and Don Flippin, plus those mentioned earlier.

McMURRY 14, CHATTANOOGA 19 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Nov. 16-McMurry's Indians spotted the Moccasins of Chattanooga Uni- versity a 19-0 third-quarter lead and then un- leashed a torrid ground attack to pull within five points of the Mocs before the final gun stopped it at 19-14. On the ground the Indians had a wide edge of 251 yards against 161 for the Tennessee team, but the Mocs ruled the airlanes with 116 yards against 45 for Mclviurry. The Moccasins, who rank nation's small colleges in passing offense, hit nine of 14 aerials, one for a TD. A fumble on the Tribe,s first series of downs gave Chattanooga the ball on the McMurry 26. Five plays later john Green hit Bill Brown in the end zone with a colorful 10-yard touchdown pass. james Boyd blocked the extra-point try. Gus Wilson recovered a Moc fumble on the enemy 18, but two plays later jack Archer i t ed 11th amonlg the . n er- cepted a McMun'y aerial and raced 87 yards down th ' ' ' e unguarded sideline for Chattanoogas second score. jim Lindsey converted.

The victory gave McMuny a season record of five 'wins and five losses, and continued a string of victorious seasons dating back to 1951 for the Indians. Southem State jumped to a 6-0 lead early in the second quarter, with fullback jerry Daniel romping 59 yards to score. Lloyd Gardner missed the extra point. Halfbaek james Boyd, starting for the Indians in place of the injured Ernie Davis, put McMurry bac' in business with a sparkling 44-yard touch- down run with four minutes remaining in the first half. Robert Baker converted and Mclvlurry lcd 7-5. With five minutes gone in the second half, fpiarterbaek john MeCrary went to the right on tie option play, turned the corner and zig-zagged through the Southern secondary on a 69-yard sprint to the double-stripe, Baker missed the mark and it was 13-7. ur-M Qpg- 14.4.44 , ' n '. . t:-,4 ' 1. il' Q' I-i'l11a's'l1X53v.f4 fxisi 'iii .1 ..-' 1. . , Iames Baldwin, Seymour, So.

As the Totem went to press on March 1, the Tribe had won 9 games and lost 16, with four more games to be played against the Petroleos M exicanos of Poza Rica, Mexico, March 8-12 in Poza Rica fVeracruzl and Mexi- co City. Results of those games will be found in the season record, Page 142. The Tribe's won-lost record was the best compiled by a McMurry basketball team since the 1952-53 season, and but for a few bad breaks and hair-close defeats it could have been one of the best in local basketball history. Coach Burnham's Braves faced a rugged schedule minus four veterans lost from last year's quintet. These included all-conference selections Bobby Harris and Don Taylor, and regulars Boyd Sylestine and Bill Easterling. On hand for the opening practice were four letter- men, five squadmen, two transfers, and six freshmen, and on schedule were SMU, TCU, and other top college teams loaded with veterans. Coach Bumham installed a new ball-control, weav- ing offense, and instilled a new spirit into McMurry College basketball. It took a while for the Indians to leam and perfect the new offense, and they were ham- poiered in early season by the giant powers on the sched- u e. This year's basketball team will be long remembered, not for the times they won or lost, but how they played the game. They were humbled and outclassed on oc- casions, but they never stopped hustling and trying and working and improving. By mid-season the results of th.is never-say-die spirit began to show up in a smoother offense, a great defense, and more accurate shooting. Veterans Winn, Shelton, Anderson, Boyd, Williams and Gothard were bolstered by fine work of newcomers Turner, Looney, Senterfitt, Barnett, and others, and it became evident that these men will give us the nucleus next year for a brighter future in McMurry basketball. The Papoose squad, coached by Bill Alexander, also gave a good account of itself, and some of its members will be top candidates for varsity berths in the years ahead. We're proud of these Indians, and all we ask of them is Keep up the good work! The McMurry Indian basketball varsity for 1956-57 included ffront row, from leftl Tommy Boyd, Bobby Williams, Clarence Winn, Ray Senterfitt, Eric Looney, Q back rowl George Barnett, jerry Turner, Carl Anderson, Paul Gothard and Bud Shelton. bs!!! 5 is 1 L0 x' 4. , 5 Q 1 -'sr ' 4 if 'A ,ff , - ,.

MCMUHY hit a dismal 20 per cent of its field goal attempts, with the red-hot Mustangs hitting 52 per cent.

Stanley Owen hit the winning bucket for HPC. The Tribe, bearing little resemblance to the team which dropped its opener to SMU, held a three-point lead with two minutes remaining, and a 66-65 margin with 25 seconds left, McMun'y, led by joe Vick with 18 points, hit 50 per cent of its shots in the second half, and out-rebounded the jackets. Next in the Tribe's scoring column were Tumer and Williams with 14 apiece, and Winn with 11. LOSE TO TCU, SWTSC The Indians journeyed to Fort Worth Dec. 10 on another giant-killing expedi- tion, but the giant, TCU, handed them their third loss 97-52. Winn was the T1-ibe's'top pointmaker with ll, but it was no match for Dick O'Neal's 28 for TCU. On a road trip to central Texas dur- ing the Christmas holidays, McMurry lost two games to the powerful Bobcats of Southwest Texas State, 88-56 and 97-59. In their first game in Ianuary, the Indians outscored Howard Payne in field goals, but lost an 87-71 decision at the free-throw line.

Gene was president of the McMurry Press Club. He was elected parliamentarian of TIPA at last year's con- vention in San Angelo. Gene was a member of the McMurry College Band during his freshman year, and was in the Chant- ers, mixed choral group, as a sophomore. He was a member of FOI'lll11, men's religious organi- zation, Wesley Players, religious drama group, the Span- 165 ish Clubg and Ko Sari men's social club, which he served as Scribe. Gene had served on both the Mc- Murry Student Senate and the Student Council. Even though Gene's great and beautiful life was shared with us for only a short time, we have become bigger, better and fuller because we can say we knew and worked with a true Servant of the House of the Lord. May each of us take the example of this life and seek a higher and nobler life, that each of us might come to the end of life and it might be said, as we say now about the life of Gene Davidson, that the battle was fought, the race was won, and it was good. ifew7 2 chasm if Winners in the three divisions of the beard-growing contest display the results.

' 77544 EMORI Ns., WILLIE MAE CHRISTOPHER Miss Willie Mae Christopher, Professor in the English department at McMurry College, died unexpectedly of a heart attack on Saturday moming, April 6, 1957, at her home in Abilene. Miss Chris, as we knew her, belonged to McMurry, or McMurry belonged to Miss Chris. You couldn't be sure which. She joined the McMurry faculty in 1926. She was a great teacher. Her favorite courses were Life and Literature of the Southwest, advanced gram- mar, American literature and sophomore English. She was a wonderful leader, having served as spon- sor of Wah Wahtaysee, TIP, and a number of classes. The Totem was dedicated to her in 1934 and 1954. Miss Chris typified McMurry, and'the following lines of one of her favorite poems typified Miss Chris. Life is sweet just because of the friends we have made . . . And the things which in common we share . . . We want to live on not because of our- selves . . . But because of the people who care . . . It,s giving and doing for somebody else . . . In all, that the glory depends . . . Arul the joy of it all, When we've summed it all up . . . Is found in the making of friends. QSSSXNQKXXQQKKRRXK kwkkkkkki EM 1,-'ft .mimi . -.Asll .- f.1i.?
