It is an indefinable combination of buildings, people, spirit, fun, work, and prayer. In the pages that follow you will find some of the dements which arc our school. But to know the real Mercer, it is necessary to be a Mercerian — and it is with pride and humility that every Mercer student and faculty member says, “I am a Mcrcerian.” This book is a souvenir of the years we spend at Mercer, but it cannot contain the inner feeling of Mercer as a family and an institution, Look, Mercerian, and look, visitor, for what lies beyond the pictures and the words , , , Now turn the page , , , f THE CAMPUS ow many tames . have you left the ad building . . . worked on a term paper in the library for 15 hour or two . . then labored over an unknown in the chemistry lab , . , the hamsters you dissected in the biology lab . . a a a 9 Q i amo w€ 11 ove em Lotii But now we kave two A Menii of spin DR. 5PRIGHT DOWELL Prr ude tl tlmeriln DR MALCOLM LESTER Dean of tbt College of Liberal Arts THE ADMINISTRATION MR CHARLES H STOK'E MRS LlfCJLE JOHNSON.1 Libuutan Treasurer DR.

PIERCE Superintendent of Buildings and Maintenance MAJOR CONNELL The year 1956-57 will be long remembered in Mercer's history. Corner- stones bearing that date will mark the completion of facilities and buildings about which students have dreamed for years The record of the year will include dedicatory programs for the Humanities Building, the Student Center, the Camille Dowell wing on Mary Erin Porter Hall, six new faculty homes, and the completion of Shorter Hall. Jt seems fitting to me that the present Mercer student body who partici- pated in these dedicatory ceremonies should m gratitude to the friends who made possible these new facilities reded itate themselves to the high purposes and ideals of the institution: 'the fullest development of men and women of solid learning, unquestioned integrity, and full loyalty to the highest.'

Srunc THE DEDICATION To a true scholar, a thorough gentleman, a devout Christian, and a beloved friend, we dedi- cate this, the 1957 CAULDRON. As instructor in Christianity and Church His- tory, he had led many to a further quest for truth and knowledge, He. like those in the preceding pages, has labored diligently to build us into mature men and women, and likewise has influenced the physical progress of Mercer. A bulwark of the Faith and of the Church on our campus, he has shown himself always seek- ing to grow spiritually and to help others to grow with him. Always ready to counsel, to sympathise, yet nor to coddle, he has endeared himself to us as a warm and sincere friend. With all these qualities in mind, we, the Class of 1957, dedicate in love and gratitude the 1957 CAULDRON ro . Dr Harold L.

December 7, 1956 STUDENT GOVEJWffiJiT ASSOCIATIO!! REPORT 0? THE PP£3WT’r, It la a difficult indeed, dangerous task to attempt now to evaluate the work of this Student Goverment Aaaociation, with nearly half the adBi.nistra.tive year at ill before us. So one can determine fully the algniritano of that which has already been done, nor predict with much assurance the outcome of our plans for the future. Taking these things into consideration, I am nevertheless firstly convinced that Mercer students are well on their way to another year of success- ful eelf-goverraser.t. The record of your achievecenta will, I think, bear me out. One of the cost pressing needs of our student body for the past several years has been the need for a revised constitution. The one under which we now serve is obviously out of date, and practically obsolete. The Constitution Revision Com- mittee has been working diligently for several weeks, and at the tics of this writ- ing a completely new constitution is nearly ready for your approval. This document will clearly define the duties of the various student officers and «ecittaes, and will recove the contradicttons and ambiguities of She present constitution. From the cultural standpoint two important contributions have been nade this year. The establishment of a record library on carpus will provide much entertain- sent for all members of the Mercer family”, and should help thee to a greater appreciation mt only of good music, but also of the realms of poetry and drams. In addition, the lecture series has been expanded, due to an increased appropria- tion from the Student Activities Committes, Throughout the remainder of this year several nAilomUy recopt ized, fL xree will share with us their Insights on varlouo subjects. The high fjaHty of these speaker a should help greatly to reduce the criticise to which chapel programs have traditionally been subject. The most important phase of student government at this time is the honor system. Its establishment at Mercer three years ago will retrain as one of the boldest advances of students in self-government, This year the Honor Council has worked unceasingly to ieprove Li a procedure and to emphasise to the student s their responsibility for the academic level at Mercer. While their contribution can neither now nor ever be fully evaluated, 1 believe it is safe to say that the honor system has grown and will continue to grow in influence and prestige as a result of the labors of this group, lest any should feel left out, may I hasten to say that «any other things no less significant have been done. The work of the Cluster and the Cauldron staffs should be mentioned, as well as that of several other committees which have worked on various problems of the student body. I am aure I speak for the whole student body in expressing appreciation to these people for the work they have done. If this has been a successful year—nnd I believe it has—you have only your- selves to thank, for the responsibility for progressive student government lies in the hands of all the studente. And because this is true, the future of eelf-govem- men . of students at Mercer rests in your hands. May you continue to accept this responsibility as willingly aa you have done this year. ,, . -Of—- Buddy Moore 55A President Mercer University S.G.A. Officers, left to right Buddy Moon.

On this occasion, such gymnastic events as rope-climbing, peanut races, wheelbarrow races and free throw competition take place. The winner for the girls organizations was Phi Mu Sorority. Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity copped fust place among the boys’ organizations. Friday night the action is resumed with the IFC dance and the presentation of the Homecoming Queen.

The judging of the floats was based on uniqueness and carrying out the theme which was comic strips this year. Pre-game activities consisted of a bar-b-q held on Mercer's campus and a bonfire and pep rally. The spirit and enthusiasm of the day, coupled with the strength of the basketball team made victory inevitable for the home forces as Mercer downed Howard in an easy victory ...

COACHING STAFF DEVELOPS FINE ATHLETES Wilder replaces Cowan in mid-season Mr. Zeb Vance, head of the physical education department The athletic program at Mercer includes intercollegiate competition in basketball, track, baseball, cross country and tennis, Under the capable leadership of Athletic Director Zeb Vance, the Mercer coaching staff is continuously trying to produce winning teams and in doing so their aim is also to develop fine athletes and men of high character. The teams vary in proficiency with some being close to national champions and others not faring so well. But one thing can be said; the teams have always represented the School well and have given Mercer a good name in the south because of their conduct and sportsmanship. This is a tribute not only to the individual players but to their coaches as well. Miss Lucille Pollard, Director of Physical Education for girl . Bobby Wilder, former Mercer Basketball star and coach at Bass High School in Atlanta, has been named head coach at Mercer to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Jim Cowan. Wilder assumed his duties at the beginning of the winter quarter. Cowan, who wras basketball and track coach at Mercer since 19 16. resigned to accept a position with a local business, He left the team after the Christmas holidays trip to Memphis, Term., on December 19 The Mercer Bears celebrated Jim Cowan Night at Porter Gymnasium by walloping the Bisons of David Lipscomb College. 82 62. In ceremonies just prior to the game, Cowan, was honored by the college president, faculty, alumni, student body, and former Mercer hoopsters. His Mercer Bears, open ing their home season of 1956-57, showed more fire and desire to win than they have all season. A native of Fort Valley, Georgia, Wilder was an outstand- ing guard on the Mercer hoop squads of L ?5l and 1952, making the All-Dixie Conference teams both years, He was named to the All-Geotgta team one year He received his bachelor of arts degree from Mercer in 1952 and a master of arts degree from Peabody College in 1955. Zeb Vance, athletic director at Mercer, commented. Al- though Bobby didn't receive the recognition some players have. I feel that he was one of the greatest players we have produced in the 15 years I have been at Mercer Wilder's wife, formerly of Oak Ridge, Tcnn,, is associated with the physical education department here at Mercer.

BEARS' QUINTET COMPLETES 8-13 SEASON This year's Hear team made a big change midstream as Coach Jim Cowan retired as basketball coach in the middle of the season. When Bobby Wilder took over as Bear coach at tire be- ginning of the Winter quarter he put Ins court men through their paces. Tire- icam never played without a long and hard fight to the very end. Even though the Mercer hardwood five met with bitter defeats more than their share of the time, they never quit. Outclassed, perhaps but not outplayed. Mercer's season started off with two defeats but then hit a two game winning streak, The Bear quintet continued in this manner throughout the entire season.

The Mercer cheerleaders deserve recognition for helping to improve the spirit at the games All in all the Bears had a good season dispitc the many hard defeats they met along the way. Our c.igers seem to be partial to the borne court because it wasn't until the end of schedule that Mercer ever won a game while on a rcud trip. One of the most exciting games was the Mcrcer-Gcorgia game as Mercer showed perfect teamwork throughout the entire game. The cagers sparked again in the Howard game. A tribute is due to Bobby Graham who was chosen out- standing player of the year. Bobby is Jn old timer with an outstanding record.

CHEERLEADERS DIRECT SPIRIT IN RIGHT PATH The cheerleaders headed by Captain Algy Carbonei I sparked Mercer's Bears to an impressive season. The rah-rah rew. who are chosen for grace and gymnastic prowess in addition to their cheering ability, enlivened the Bears’ home games as well as the Presbyterian, Georgia Teachers, L‘. of Ga., and Stetson games, With their usual brilliance they recorded a variety of flips and twists which added to the spirit created by them on campus this year. The Pep Rallies, posters, signs, special cheering group, pre-Howard game bonfire, and other coordinated efforts of the cheerleaders all added up to a good season and an unusually spirited student body. The Cheerleaders lead student body in yells at hanging of Howard effigy THF. 1957 SEASON March 16 March 2 6 March 29 - March JO April 2 April 5 April 6 April 9 April 11 Aptil 13 April 17 April IS April 19 April 30 May 2 May 3 May 7 — May 10 May 1 .1 May 14 U. of Tenn ............Wofford U of Ga U of Ga.

A TEAM IS MADE OF MORE THAN PLAYERS Most of the time when we think of a team we think of the players only. It takes much more than just the me misers to have a successful team Everyone associated with the players determines their success or the failure. These net in the spotlight” people include the capable coach, managers and cheerleaders, hut most of all the support from friends, fatuity alums. This support is not often found as it has been this year on the Mercer campus. Perhaps it took many people m other years working toward better school spirit” to produce it now, but all who attend Mercer know of the hud work and great effort put forth by our I95d«57 cheerleaders under the di- rection of their captain, Algy Carbondl.
