H. Lovelace HILLMAN E, PROF. M. P. L. BERRY OR over three quarters of a cen- tury Hillman College has served the young women of Mississippi and sur- rounding states, so that today there is hardly a community in this section of the South in which there is not a Hill- man graduate doing her part in raising cultural and educational standards. Hillman began its work in 1853, being then called the Central Female Institute. In 1857, Rev. Walter Hillman entered upon an administration which lasted until his death thirty-seven years later. He was succeeded by his widow, Mrs. Adelia Hillman, and she was followed by Drs. F. L. Riley, George Wharton, J. L. Johnson, and Prof. J. L. Johnson, Jr. In 1892 the school’s name was changed to Hillman College, in honor of Dr. and Mrs. Hillman. In 1906, Dr. W. T. Lowrey became president, remaining so until 1923, when he resigned and was suc- ceeded by the vice-president, M. P. L. Berry, who has held the office ever since. Under Mr. Berry’s presidency the library has been augmented, addi- tional grounds purchased, and the school made an accredited junior college, being now a member of the American Association of Junior Colleges and the Southern Association of Colleges. The present faculty consists of: Prof. M. P. L. Berry, president; Miss Elise Timberlake, academic dean and professor of education and English; Mrs. G. W. Riley, social dean and pro- fessor of Bible; Miss Leska Granberry, French and psychology; Mrs. W. T. Lowrey, social and mathematics; Mrs. Nell Potter, history; Miss Nelly Magee, expression and physical culture; Miss Georgina Palmeter, piano and harmony; Mr. Frank Slater, voice; Mrs. Frank Slater, piano; Miss Emma Smith, matron; and Mrs. Carilla Elliot, chaperone.

He has been aided this year by Coach Stanfield Dick” Hitt, a former passing ace in Choctaw football history, and Coach Melvin Landrum, a former star of the basketball court. Page 79 The Athletic Council Dr. A. E. Wood Coach Stanley Robinson Coach Dick Hitt Coach Melvin Landrum Prof. M. Latimer The Athletic Council is composed of ten members. Four of these men have been selected from among the faculty, three men from among the student body; and the three coaches complete the roll. As is implied by its name, the duty of this group is to act as a governing board for the guidance and control of all policies and phases of Mississippi College athletics. The committee’s services are further re- quired for the judging of the qualifications and achievements of an athlete in making out its recommendations to the student body as to who shall become letter- men during each year of its office. The Athletic Council for many years has been one of the most efficient groups upon the Mississippi College campus. Besides the utilitarian value of the Council’s work, there is great benefit to both faculty and student body arising from a harmonious cooperation of the representatives from both groups. Prof. J. R.

Littlejohn Jodie Lyle Troy Mohon Howard Morris Maxie Nelson Herman Newsome Hubert Sheffield Ike Toler The M CU Membership in the M” Club is the highest local honor that can come to Mississippi College athletes. The personnel of the club is composed of those men who have won a varsity M” in football, basketball, baseball, track, or tennis, also the managers of these activities, and the senior cheerleader. At present there are twenty-five men belonging to this group. In out- ward aspect the M” Club sponsors each year high school basketball tournaments, and the traditional annual M. C. Minstrel and Stunt Night. The club’s real program, however, is to coordinate the various departments of campus athletics, to promote inter- collegiate athletic relations, and to keep alive locally that fine spirit of sportsmanship which has ever characterized the Mississippi College student body. Considering its goals and its accomplishments, the M” Club is the embodiment of Choctaw” spirit. Pace 81 LETTER MEN Hopes for a winning combination of Choctaws for the gridiron season of 1935 looked very dismal at the opening of the season. Even though there were seven lettermen who had returned, there were several places on the team which had to be filled by inexperi- enced men. The Chocs played one of the hardest schedules which they have essayed in several years, and with their exceedingly light team they were unable to conquer the majority of their opponents. Under the direction of Coach Robinson they also fought to a score- less tie with the Millsaps Majors on Thanksgiving Day. The Choctaws opened the season with the Louisiana College Wildcats on Provine Field and were defeated by a score of 7 to 0. In the Wildcats they met a much heavier and more experienced team than themselves. On the next week-end the Choctaws traveled to Meridian to meet the strong Howard Bulldogs. Here they ran into their stiffest oppo- sition of the season and were trounced by the very one-sided score BOBBY JACKSON End Only a Sophomore, Bobby guarded his post like a veteran. ARNOLD HEDERMAN End II is first year of varsity ball bespeaks two more excellent seasons. EARL FORTENBERRY Center Faithful to his post, he seldom needed a substitute. FRED GREEN End Fred’s ability to grab passes appeared to be that of a vet- eran and not a Sophomore. Page 82 of the GRIDIRON HERMAN NEWSOME T ackle Another Sophomore who won himself a regular berth before the season was over. FRED DICKSON Guard Fred, a fighting Senior, was a s tone wall to those who tried to gain over his post. HASKELL JACKSON Tackle Flaying his position well this ' e ar, Haskell shows great promise. BILL FERGUSON Tackle ru gged player who scrapped every minute of play. of 46 to 0. This game gave Coach Robinson a chance to try all his men and give some much needed experience to some of the younger players. On the following week the Choctaws fought in vain throughout a hard game with Spring Hill in Gulfport to lose to the Badgers by the score of 14 to 0. This was the best showing that the Chocs had made thus far and it seemed that their outlook was much better. Very much outweighed, the Choctaws displayed a hard-fighting team against Southwestern at the State Fair in Jackson before a very large crowd. Taking advantage of every opportunity, the Lynx were able to push over two touchdowns to win the game by a margin of 13 to 0. On October twenty-sixth the Delta State Greenies were taken into camp by the score of 34 to 0. In beating the Teachers the Indians displayed a new type of offense which helped them throughout the rest of the season. This was the first victory of the season, and it encouraged the band of Chocs and raised their hopes. L MEN An enthusiastic student body gave the Choctaw Warriors a great send-off when they entrained for Chattanooga a week later to meet the Conference-leading Moccasins. With the odds heavily against them, the Chocs went into the game fighting for every inch and emerged the victors of the fray by a score of 13 to 7. This victory not only added another to the Chocs’ list, but it kept the Moccasins from being the champions of the Conference. With hopes for another victory high the student body spirit soared to a new high when the team left the campus to meet the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs at Ruston. After starting the game on almost even terms, the Choctaws were beaten by a lack of reserve material. How- ever, the Braves were able to push over a touchdown and also make the extra point. At the end of the game the Bulldogs were leading by a score of 20 to 7. The next encounter of the Choctaws was in New Orleans when they met the strong Loyola Wolves. Scoring on long runs, the Wolves drubbed the Chocs by a score of 36 to 0. Even though the BILLY EMERSON Fullback A hard driver, Billy showed fight every time the ball vas snapped. BILL KYZAR Halfback A wiry defensive man who fought with fury on the offense as well. “RED” DUNAWAY Fullback “Red” crashed the opponent’s line every time called upon. A valuable man in the backfield. OTHO WINSTEAD Halfback A Sophomore whose long step ' ping bolstered the Chocta ’ stock several points. Page 84 TROY MOHON Guard A real fighter ; always ready when called upon. JAMES HITT Halfback Another of the Hitt clan who terrorized his opponents with his hard running and brilliant kicking. TERRY HOLLOWELL Quarterback Terry, only a Sophomore, proved his clear-headedness on a number of occasions. DICK EDMONSON Quarterback Directing his teammates mas- terfully, Dick was a sure bet at all times. WARREN FERGUSON Manager “Ferg” proved himself a care- ful and efficient manager. Chocs outfought and outplayed the Wolves from start to finish, they were not able to cross the Wolves’ goal. After the Loyola massacre all thoughts of football were concen- trated upon the oncoming battle with Millsaps on Thanksgiving. Coach Robinson exerted efforts to instill in the team the fact that they were not to be beaten on Turkey Day. Secret practices were held for a period of ten days prior to the game, and when the Chocs went into the game Thanksgiving Day they demonstrated the fact that they really could play football. The game was played before a crowd of around eight thousand people, this being Homecoming Day for the Choctaws, as well as Thanksgiving. After the opening whistle the Choctaws never let up, and they backed Millsaps down the field on almost every attempt the Majors made. The outstanding features of the game were the defensive work of the entire line, the excellent blocking of the backfield for its ball carriers and the kicking of James Hitt. The game ended in a scoreless deadlock, and neither team could say they won. Page 85 Page 86 cJhe Basketball ua FRESHMEN Page 87 Zke LET R MEN With the prospects looking the best in several years, the Mississippi College Choc- taws began the 1935-36 basketball season with a road-trip which took them into Tennes- see and Kentucky. The first game was played in Memphis against West Tennessee Teach- ers, with the Choctaws losing the game by a score of 45 to 39. At Murray Teachers the Choctaws met one of the strongest teams in the S. I. A. A. conference. The Kentucky team won this game by a ten-point margin over the Choctaws. The third game was played at Jackson, Tennessee, against Union, with the Bulldogs winning the game. At Clinton the Choctaws opened their home schedule by playing the Union Bulldogs and again losing to them by several points. At Ruston the Choctaws were defeated in a very fast game by the team at Louisiana Tech. The annual four-game series with Millsaps was then begun, with the Choctaws tak- ing the first two games. The first was played at Clinton with the Choctaws winning 40 to 39. The other was played in Jackson and the Chocs were victorious by a score of 39 to 32. After these games the Indians made a trip through Al a- bama and Tennessee, meeting Howard, Birmingham-Southern, Sewanee, and Chattanooga. At Howard the Bulldogs won over the Chocs by a score of 55 to 27. At Sewanee the Tribe LANE was defeated by a score of 42 to 40, and Chattanooga also de- EPTING feated the Choctaws. On the return trip the Tribe stopped at ANDERSON Birmingham-Southern, winning by a score of 35 to 32. GREEN Page 88 HB of the CO LI RT On their annual tour of the South the Celtics again stopped off in Jackson to meet the Choctaws. The Celtics won the game, 55 to 47. Birmingham-Southern then came to the Choctaw campus to be defeated again. Louisiana Tech was the next foe to invade the Choctaw lair, and the Bulldogs won from the Chocs by a score of 46 to 35. On February seventh the Chattanooga Moccasins visited the campus for a pair of games. In the first game the Chocs won by 7 points, and in the second game the Moccasins won by a score of 38 to 37. At State Teachers the Chocs in their first game won by a score of 42 to 35, and in the second game the Yellow Jackets reversed the score. Howard of Birmingham was the Tribe’s next foe, and they barely eked out a one-point victory over the Indians. In the last two of the four-game series with Millsaps the Majors were unbeatable one night and won by a score of 54 to 41. The next night the Choctaws drubbed them in a very one-sided affair. Closing the schedule for the season the Chocs were defeated by West Tennessee Teachers of Memphis on the home court. In the S. I. A. A. tourna- ment the Chocs drew a bye for the first round and met and were defeated by Louisiana Normal in the second round. This was the most thrilling game of the tournament. At the end of the regular game the score was 41 all. In the extra five-minute period the Normal won by one point, 44 to 43.

LITTLEJOHN Pitcher Hitting and pitching well, E. P. proved himself equal to every occasion. The baseball season opened in a four-game series with Louisiana Polytechnic Institute. In the first game at Ruston the Choctaws were defeated by a score of 5 to 4. In the second game Sheffield was very effective and the Chocs won by a score of 7 to 4. On the Clinton diamond the Bulldogs took the next two games to win the series of four. The third game was won by a score of 7 to 4, Littlejohn pitching for the Choctaws. The last tilt was pitched by Sheffield, with the Choctaws losing by a 4 to 1 count. On April 1, the Chocs opened their annual series with Millsaps by winning the first game by a score of 7 to 1. The second game of this series was postponed because of rain. Next, for the first time, the Choctaws entertained a team from Illinois- Wesleyan for two games. Sheffield started the first game for the Chocs and kept the Illinois team to four runs while the Indians were scoring eleven. In the sec- ond game the Illinois nine avenged themselves by driv- ing Joe Lane from the box and winning the game by a score of 9 to 4. On April 25, the Choctaws again re- sumed their series with Millsaps and won two games. mam of the DIAMOND In the first game Littlejohn held the Majors to two hits and no runs, while the Choctaws were able to score three runs off Assaf. In the other game of this series the Choctaws won a thriller by the score of 7 to 6. Sheffield was the hurler in this contest. On their annual trip to Alabama, Tennessee, and Kentucky the Chocs were the losers of the only two games they were able to play. On the first two days of the trip the Indians lost to Birmingham-Southern in Birmingham. The Alabamans won the first game by a score of 9 to 2. The second of these games was much better. Sheffield held the Southern team to six hits and five runs, but the Tribe could only score three. The other games scheduled for this trip were not played because of rain. Ending the season the Choctaws took two hard-fought games from the Millsaps Majors. Sheffield pitched the first of the games and allowed the Majors only two runs while the Chocs scored eleven. Littlejohn pitched the Chocs to a thrilling win in the second game by a score of 3 to 2. JODY LYLE Shortstop Fast and wiry, Jody let noth- ing go by the shortstop post ; a Sophomore promise.

Page 92 I miviivtitlflililflflcP ‘Che LETTER MEN of More than thirty- five speed merchants answered Coach Lewis Wilson’s call for track practice in the spring of 1935. The schedule of the season consisted of four meets and then entering the district S. I. A. A. meet. The Choctaws’ cinder path artists won two of these meets and lost two of them. Opening the season, the Choctaws were defeated by a very strong track team from Louisiana Polytechnic Institute at Clinton. The Bulldogs from Tech amassed a total of 72 points in the meet, while the Chocs were only able to gather 40 points. Captain Zach Hederman and Hardy Myers were the outstanding runners for the Chocs. In the second meet of the season the Choctaws journeyed to Birmingham to defeat a strong team from Birmingham-Southern. In this meet Captain Hederman led the Choctaw scorers, winning four first places. He was also a member of the winning relay team, his personal score amounting to 21 points. The Braves scored a total of 59% points to edge over the Pan- thers, who had a total of 57% points. On the following week-end the Chocs met with the strongest running group of the season when they encountered the track team of Northeast Center of L. S. U. at Monroe. Here the Chocs were defeated by twenty points, 62 to 42. Several of the Indians showed up very good, but were unable to win their events. The last scheduled meet of the season was held in Clinton, with Mill- saps as opposition. The Chocs were able to eke out a victory over the Majors by staging an extra event. After all the scheduled events had been run the score stood at a tie, 56 points each. An Troy Mohon Zack Hederman William Barbee Albert Drury the CINDER PATH extra event was held in the form of a mile relay, with the Choctaws winning. Several Choctaw tracksters participated in the S. I. A. A. district tournament, which was held in Alexandria, Louisiana. Hardy Myers and Captain Hederman again stood out as the Choc- taw entries in this meet. The Papooses held no scheduled meet on this season, but were given plenty of chances to show their wares against the varsity. From this group of first year men the track team this year will find a host of valuable material. Especially were most of the Papooses adapted for the distance class. The Indians also had an excellent cross-country team, but because of the Christmas holidays interfering with the practices they did not enter the annual road race in Jackson. This team was capt ained by Pearl Butler, a senior, who stood out for his distance runs in his track career at Mississippi College. Both Hederman, captain of the track team, and Butler, captain of the cross-country team, were lost by graduation, but will be long remembered for their records in intercollegiate meets. Hederman ran the hurdles, dashes, and was a member of the relay team. In his college career he set several new marks for future sprinters of the Choctaws to strive to better. R. A. Eddleman W. E.

The Dramatic Club honors Miss Inez Gunter, and the Pre-Med Club has selected as sponsor Mrs. Jo-Mary Knox. It is small wonder that with such inspira- tion as this the Choctaws have acquired fame and prowess and success in their pursuits. ORGANIZATIONS E. P. Littlejohn President L. C.

Page 145 Who’s Who 9 Littlejohn was elected the Most Popular Student, the Most Promising Senior, the Friendliest Student, and the school’s Biggest Politician. ® Willis’s activities on the campus, especially those of literary nature, and his high mark in scholarship won him the title Most Intellectual. Reno has proved, from the day he arrived on the campus until the present, that the students did not err in choosing him Most Deserving. Starring in every major sport sponsored here, football, basketball, base- ball, and track, Hitt deserves the title given him, Best Athlete. A huge stock of anecdotes, a supposed knowledge on all subjects, a genial disposition, and a loose tongue made Lovell Biggest Bullshooter. It was a warm and friendly smile, a carefree manner, and a certain engag- ing air that dubbed Katie Belle Gaston the Most Flirtatious Co-Ed. Fresh Brister, possessed of a famous good nature and an inclination to clown, was the unanimous choice of the students for Greenest Freshman.
