LELAND SPEED LIBRARY MISSISSIPPI COLLEGE CLINTON, MISSISSIPPI The 1975 Tribesman Mississippi College Clinton, Mississippi MC— A Study In Contrasts 147483 MC ... is more than a preachers’ school . . . more than a church school. More, much more! Religious faiths are a big part of the school, but MC deserves more than nicknames like “Hebrew Hill,” or the “nunnery.” Mississippi College is alive and moving, and the students prove it by their activities. They do different things different ways, but all of their actions add up to a versatile, dynamic college. This variety shows that MC is . . . A study in contrasts. V, issl p , 2 All kinds and ages come to Mississippi College. Naturally there is a new group of freshmen every year, struggling through registration and wearing beanies. They have talent shows and hikes, and they wear Indian costumes to the first home football game. 4 p mmm But the freshmen aren’t the only ones who do things at MC. Age groups vary from the faculty to the graduate students to youngsters who just come to visit. 5 Then, of course, there are the upperclassmen. They come in all sizes and shapes, interested in all sorts of things. All types are seen— preachers, athletes, scholars, beauties, music fans, Derby Day queens, and those who work hard all four years and never receive enough recognition. 6 The campus is changing and growing too. It is fascinating to watch the new library wing finished or construction on a new Home Ec-Nursing building. It would, of course, be a relief to see construction started on a new gym to replace the “Crackerbox.” The campus without the old buildings like Nelson or Jennings would be strange— but maybe someday they will get air- conditioned. 8 10 §F . ♦ ' Wsm s ill 11 MC-alive? Progressive? Modern? Absolutely! Certainly there are some changes to be made— no school is perfect. But Mississippi College seems to come closer than most. The variety in the interests and life styles of the campus members keeps MC well-rounded. MC— a study in contrasts— thank goodness!

In July of 1974 Terri Forbes represented Mississippi College in the Miss Mississippi Pageant, the state preliminary to the Miss America Pageant. After nearly a week of competition with fifty other girls, Terri was chosen as Third Alternate to Miss Mississippi. The week of competition had definitely been worthwhile. As a result of her winnings at the school pageant and the state pageant, Terri received $1200 worth of scholarships and awards. Mississippi College was proud of Terri for her accomplishments as an individual and was also proud that she shared MC ' s name in this great honor. 24 3rd Alternate— Betty Schmidt 2nd Alternate— Beth Miller 4th Alternate— Paula Box Mississipj . w 25 Library wmmm 26 MC has 22 Who’s Who in American Universities Colleges Winners Right: Rick Courtney; Below: Jan King. 28 Top left: Lee Dukes; Lower left: Claire Trawick; Lower right: Olivia Grant. 29 30 31 Top Right: Rick Wilson; Lower left: Patricia Gilbert; Lower right: Ed Richardson 32 ■ AT RIGHT: Lewis Oswalt; BELOW, LEFT: Floyd Stallings; BELOW, RIGHT: Jay Willis. (•X X X 34 36 W The 1975 Founders Award Is Presented to Jane Reed This award was established in 1 974 by a group of three interested alumni and is conferred annually upon the senior who, in the judgment of a committee, has made the most significant contribution to the college in exemplifying the ideals for which the college was founded— specifically in quality of living, in leadership, and in service. Jane Reed is an elementary education major from Atlanta, Ga. She was a Who’s Who winner and a senior favorite. In the past she has served on SBA committees, (Judicial, High School Day, Food Services, and Student- Faculty), Action Team Committees in BSU, as class officer, and was a member of Laguna, a beauty, and Civitan Sweetheart. MC extends congratulations to Jane, for she is a student to be proud of. 37 Mr. Richard Augustus Courtney Rick has shown his leadership ability in several ways on campus. He has served as president of Circle K and the Pre-Legal Club, and also was on the BSU Steering Committee. Rick has been dorm manager of Whittington, a Who’s Who winner, a member of Sigma Tau Delta, Omi- cron Delta Kappa, and treasurer— coach of Lakissas- wanamoosha. Rick, an English major, has been accepted to Law School. Hall of Fame— 1975 Miss Mary Carol Criss The student body has selected Mary Carol to represent them as Miss MC and as Maid of Honor at Homecoming. She has served as WAB chairman, NT V-President, Cap and Gown V-President, and president of Tri-Beta. Mary Carol also has belonged to Alpha Lambda Delta, Alpha Chi, Alpha Epsilon Delta, and is a Who’s Who winner. She is a chemistry major and has been accepted into Med school. 38 Mr. Alan Lee Dukes Lee is best known for his accomplishments in Track and Cross-Country. He has served as captain on both of these teams, and has led them in great victories. He has also been an officer in the Track Club and the M-Club. But Lee does other things besides athletics. He has been elected as class favorite all four years at MC, and was also a KT beau. He is a member of Omicron Delta Kappa, and was the editor for Arrowhead this year. Lee was a winner in Who’s Who and served as SBA Attorney. Lee, an English major, plans to teach and coach. Miss Patricia Gail Gilbert Tricia has certainly shown a talent for keeping herself extra-busy. She has served as president of LT, Intertribal Council, Alpha Chi, and as Vice-President of Pi Omega Pi. She was a Who’s Who winner. Tricia has also be- longed to SEA, Cap and Gown, and was elected Senior Maid at Homecoming. Tricia is a Business Education ma- jor and also has her Teacher’s Certificate. 39 Cap and Gown Members are MC’s Leaders Cap and Gown was indeed proud of its members this year because of the fine examples they set. Not only did the girls fulfill the club ' s requirements by having a 3.5 °r better, but also these girls were Who ' s Who, favorites, tribal leaders, and in other honoraries Cap and Gown s sponsor was Dr. Louise Griffith, who worked faithfully with the girls.

Football Team Has Turbulent Season The 1974 Football team had a frustrating season due to injuries, an unsettled quarterback position, and an inelegible player. While the Choctaws actually finished with a 4-6-1 record, two wins and a tie had to be forfeited because of the already mentioned inelegible player. The Chocs officially finished 2-9 overall, and 0-7 in the GSC. But the season was not without its bright sides. The Chocs’ defense was absolutely outstanding. Led by such players as Lane Cole, Kirk Landau, Larry Evans, and James Barnes, the defense was number one in the GSC in stopping scores. The pass defense was also a major factor in MC defense, which included tough players such as Anthony Saway and Rufus Gladney 54 1ST ROW Mike Wallis Ike Nixon, Laon Bidley, Mac Barries, Bob Harrison, Lane Cole, Ronnie Roberts, Ross Holleyman, Rufus Gladney, S oSdney 2ND ROW: Barry McCa y , Le?KiX� ugh?M l ckey McMurtry.

Against the University of Tenn. at Martin, the offense gained over 390 yards for a new GSC record. Playing against Baptist Christian College, Don Lofton set a school record by kicking six PAT’S in one game. 57 i The future looks bright for the Chocs, even though seniors Lane Cole, Bob Harrison, Randy Martin, Mac Barnes, and Ronny Roberts will graduate. Such freshmen as Dave Marler and Ezra Tate showed great promise. Next year should prove to be quite exciting. 58 i Under the leadership of second— year head coach Dr. Doug Hines and assistant coach Joel Boone, the 1 974-75 Choctaw basketball season was one that produced many convincing triumphs, but also many heartbreaking defeats. Before the first semester exams, the Chocs had compiled a 5-1 record with wins over Whitworth (1 00-72), Belhaven (in the Magnolia Classic 75-68), Rust (in the Magnolia Classic 91-73), Millsaps(110-61), and Belhaven (in Alumni Hall 81-75). 5 If Ability Chocs Win on Speed, Hustle, a Members pictured below are: First row: Danny Williams, Jimmy Nail, Randy Clemens, John Blanford, Chuck Williams, Mike Nienaber, Larry Bible, Willie Price, Robert Dunlap, Mike Jones, and Mike Cannon. Sec- ond row; Dr. Doug Hines, James “Country” Hearn, Mike Horne, Mark Hampton, Otis Goodin, Scott Crawford, and Coach Joel Boone. 61 I During the months of January and February, the chocs faced GSC opposition. The Blue and Gold had the tallest team in Mississippi, and they were picked to finish sec- ond in the tough Gulf South Conference. But with every- one else in the GSC stronger than last year, every con- ference game that the Tribe had went down to the final buzzer. Unfortunately, the Chocs were on the short end of nu- merous tight contests. A few examples of where the Chocs lost the close ones were Delta State (67-66 and 68-66), Nicholls State (68-67), Northwestern Louisiana (53-50 at NW), and Jacksonville State (84-83). 62 I ? ' I ! The most satisfying triumph that the Tribe savored was a 90-69 licking of GSC favorite Northwestern at Alumni Hall January 27. 6 ' 9” senior Danny Williams, 6’10” junior Mike Cannon, and 6’1 ” senior Randy Clemens led the at- tack which gave the demons their first conference loss. After the Jacksonville game on Feb. 3, Clemens and sophomore Chuck Williams left the team because of “personal reasons.” In the next three games, the Chocs played with more enthusiasm, as they blew off Millsaps, in Alumni Hall 143-80, Freed-Hardeman 119-86, and Liv- ingston 76-69. In each of these games, the Chocs ap- plied full court pressure and substituted freely through- out these contests. i 63 As of February 15, the Tribe had a 10-11 overall record, and a 3-8 in the conference. The remaining games that the Choctaws faced were Belhaven, Southeastern Louisiana, Nicholls State, and the Interdenominational Tournament held at Millsaps. If the Chocs continued to play the ball they had in the last few games, they will have had their third consecutive winning season. 64 Lady Chocs Prove 2 Tries Harder Under the direction of Coach Ed Nixon, the Lady Chocs have experienced another successful season. With all the starters returning from the team that finished 2nd in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women, the Lady Chocs have continued to bring national prominence to Miss. College. At this time, the Lady Chocs have a 22-3 record. They have won three tournament titles— the LSU Invitational, the MC Invitational, and the Houston Invitational. In the Houston Invitational, the girls finished 1st out of 30 teams, winning the championship over Temple (Tex.) College 72-70. Sophomore guard Rita Easterling was voted MVP, Junior Glenda Holleyman was voted 1st team All-Star, and Ed Nixon was voted Top Coach. Squad members are; 1st row: Linda Rasberry, Liz Foster, Rita Easterling, Carol Rogers, Jan Sojourner, Debbie Wiginton; 2nd row: Nell Pickett, Carol Bennett, Tesa Townsend, Connie Smith, Alfreda Craft, Glenda Holleyman, Glenn Schmidt. 65 Other highlights of the season included playing the Australian All-Star Team Jan. 23 at the Shelley Bailey Coliseum at Forest Hill. The Australians had just completed a tour of California, and they defeated every team on an average of 65 points. The Lady Chocs gave the Aussies all they could handle before falling 66-59. 4 The Lady Chocs have also downed rival M.U.W. twice. In the first game, the Tribe won in Alumni Hall 98-85, and won at the W” by eight points in overtime. At the “W , All-Americans Glenn Schmidt (forward) and Freda Craft (center) were responsible for coming up with three-point plays and the rebounding necessary to record that victory. On February 19, the Lady Chocs played their highest scoring game, and also won by the largest margin. This was with a 1 42-58 rout of Jackson State. Other victories have come over such teams as MSU, Unifirst AAV, Belhaven, Southern, NE Louisiana, NW LA, University of New Orleans, Arkansas-Monticello, and Millsaps. 68 At this time, the Lady Chocs are looking forward to winning the state tournament, with the stiffest competition coming from the “W” and Delta State (which had downed MC twice this year). The top 2 teams in the state will go to Region III tournaments in Athens, GA. Jan Sojourner is the only senior on this spectacular Lady Choc Squad. She will be missed, but with al l the starters (Glenn Schmidt, Rita Easterling, Freda Craft, Carolyn Rogers, and Glenda Holleyman) returning, next year promises to be another winning season. ■ m I .. • 69 The 73-74 Striders Shine Led by Coach Joe Walker, the 73-’74 Track Team was an asset to the MC athletic program. The Striders produced nine national qualifers: Tim Wallace (mile), Lee Dukes (steeplechase), Kenny Saul (high jump), Mike Bain (steeplechase), Calvin Holmes (100 yd. dash), Bobby Stewart (100, 220), Jack Wood (3 mile steeplechase), Robert Felton (javelin), and Steve Campbell (220). Along with these nine qualifiers, nine records were broken and one tied. 1ST ROW: Jack Wood; Ike Raley; Larry Blalock; Bobby Stewart; Robert Hill; Terry Blalock; 2ND ROW: Woody Barnett; Calvin Holmes; Johnny Branning; Rollo Wall; Ricky McPhail; Mike Bain; Kenny Saul; Lee Dukes; Steve Campbell; 3RD ROW: Terry Johnson; Robert Felton; Charles Evans; Bobby Waterbury; Tim Wallace; Dale McPhail; David Whiteside; Stan Yates; Mike Brister; Coach Walker. NOT PICTURED WERE: Buddy Shephard; Willie Price; Jimmy Taylor; Webster Vital. Behind every great team, there is a great coach, and Coach Walker was the man behind these Choctaws. Coach Walker, an extremely enthusiastic man, told his runners to, put grades first, health second, and running last. As a man of great character, Coach Walker led his talented team to represent MC in an excellent way. 71 Cross Country Finishes 2nd in USTFF The MC Cross Country team finished the 1974 season by finishing second in the Southern USTFF meet, with a total of 33 points. Much work had been exerted to accomplish an outstanding 31-9 record against all competition. They downed every team in the Gulf South at least one time, including Jackson State, Miss. State, Florida State, Alabama, and Louisiana Tech. Vic Boyles, All GSC in ' 74, served as the Chocs’ 1 runner this season, although there was little difference in the times among the top five runners. Johnson and Evans were the other two to earn 1 positions during the year. Coach Joe Walker, in summarizing this year’s season, stated, ‘‘I am extremely proud that we are capable of competing against and defeating the kind of teams we ran against this year.” KJj am. _ RT ' Jr ■B ' I krWH i V ' , ♦ K W. i ?Jw|y RCV R S .L R r R :7 h Hi ? kS c JOhnny T JOh . n , SOn; jim Crumpler; Jack Wood ' Doug Taylor; David Cox. 2ND ROW: Danny Walker mqr ■ Mike Belzi, Vi Boyles; Charles Evans; Tim Wallace; Tom English; Lee Dukes; Coach Joe Walker. 9 72 73 FRONT ROW: James Knighton, Landry Adkins, Roger Norman, Alan Kilgore, Don Smith, Micky McMurtry.

Although it wasn’t a winning season, the team played much stronger than the record indicated. The Chocs faced several heartbreaking moments, such as the Monmouth doubleheader (lost 13-12, 1 0-7) and the Northwestern game (lost 8-7 in the top of the last inning). But there were great moments also, such as being co-champions of the Belhaven Tournament, and beating over-rated Delta State twice. Other teams falling victims to the Chocs were Southern, William Carey, N.W. Missouri, and Arkansas State. The team will miss seniors Don Smith, Robert Street, Alan Kilgore, and Roger Norman; but there are many returning lettermen. With these hardworking players, the next season looks promising. 74 76 Girls’ Volleyball Wins Some Big Ones Most of the volleyball season’s play consisted of tournaments. Here is an outline of the tourney action: Hinds JC Tournament: MC girls defeated Ole Miss, State, Belhaven, and Hinds to place first. Memphis Invitational: After beating Memphis State, MC lost to University of N. Alabama and Athens College. Southern Tourney: MC girls won first place after defeating William Carey, Southern, and Gulf Coast JC. Belhaven Invitational: The girls logged another tourney-topper by wins over William Carey, Belhaven, Southern, and Hinds. MSU Invitational: Ole Miss and Southern suffered losses to MC girls before MC lost to the “W” and was then defeated by Ole Miss in double elimination. State Tournament: After beating State and Ole Miss, the girls placed third with losses then to the W” and Ole Miss. The season record was greatly improved over last year’s. The volleyball season runs from the first of the fall semester to Thanksgiving. Pictured above, l-r, are: KNEELING: Debbie Wiginton, Susan Grames, Liz Foster, Ginger Gandy, and Cathy Cobb. STANDING. Rita Eas- terling, Carol Bennett, Tesa Townsend, Glenda Holleyman, June Tate, and Glenn Schmidt. The team is coached by Mrs. Moss. 77 i Girls’ Tennis Team Goes on the Move. The Girls’ Tennis Team has started its season, and its first major tournament was held at Millsaps. The girls played teams from Belhaven, MSU, and Ole Miss. Kris Azlin won her round 6-0, 6-3. The tennis team looks forward to the rest of the season, and with the type of enthusiasm they have, it should be a winning one. Team members pictured above are: Nancy Smith, Bev Hubbard, Barbro Ates, Linda Hatchett, An- nette Forsythe, Sherry Norbury, Kris Azlin, Ginger Gandy, and Coach Nixon. l 78 Boys’ Tennis Team Has Good Outlook Jumping the net, I to r, are: Daryl Newman, Steve Yawn, John Barnett. David Newman, Eric Holleyman, and Ed Richardson The 1975 Boys ' Tennis Team met their first competition in the Millsaps Tournaments Feb. 22. Although they did not win this time, the combined efforts of the three returning lettermen (Newman, Newman, and Yawn), senior Ed Richardson, and three transfers (Pennebaker, Barnett, and Holleyman) should produce winning results. 79 MC Soccer Has Strong Record The Mississippi College Soccer Team, with Captains Jimmy Kolb and Roscoe Stribling, posted a season record of 8 wins, 2 losses, and one tie. Under the coaching of Robert Luna, the team finished in a tie with Miss. State for the State Championship with a 5-0-1 record. The Mississippi College team displayed a consistent defense combined with an explosive offense. The offense scored a total of 49 goals, an average of 5.4 goals per game. The defense held the opposition to 19 goals, or an average of 2.0 goals per game. It might be noted that 14 of the 19 goals scored against MC came against two teams, the powerful Miss. State and LSU soccer teams. Rnw R r«lnh T D K W � : | J ° hn o aP P5 n ' ,? ' 11 Waltman ' Anthony Anier, Roscoe Stribling, Edgar Chalderon, Bill McCann, Mike Myers.

Approximately 1 25 girls rushed first semester while around 20 were pledged second semester. Intertribal also backed the Naturals’ spring festival “Naturally Spectacular.” Derby Day was alsc sponsored by Intertribal. Their “tying together” of tribal activities is vital for effective tribal work. To end a productive year. Intertribal held a houseparty during the weekend of May 2-3. All the tribal members attending had fun relaxing at Gulf Shores, Alabama. Intertribal members shown below are: Joy Luebbert, ST Pres., Ruthie Gandy, LT v.p., Loretta Martin, ST v.p., Tricia Gilbert, LT pres, and pres, of Intertribal, Marcia McAdory, NT pres., Jan King, pres, of KT, Ann Rogers, KT v.p.

Girls from the four social tribes vigorously participated in this day of tournaments. The clubs were judged on parade floats and total attendance. Then, the games started— Skin-the- Snake, Limbo, musical ice-buckets, pennies-in-the-flour, sack races, tug-of- war, greased log fights, and egg tossing. After much fierce and close competition, Laguna Social Tribe took the top honors, for the third year in a row. LT’s Derby Day queen, Beverly Hubbard, accepted the trophy. 88 i KT Raises Money For Heart Fund 1ST ROW: Peggy McDaniel (reporter), Jan King (pres.), Marilyn Lewis, Ann Rogers (v-pres.), Sherry Norbury (v-pres), Olivia Grant (sec.)

This project lasted both semesters, and KT’s sold luv pops,” put up road blocks, and went from house to house on “Heart Sunday. Their year had started well, with an exciting rush party, “Reflections of Our Time.” It emphasized individuality, and used shots and music all from Broadway plays such as “Marne, ” Funny Girl,” and “The Way We Were.” There were several other fall activities such as a slumber party at Dr. and Mrs. Nobles’ house. The KT Christmas party was held at Primos Northgate. The Kissimees and their dates were entertained by Gaye Parks of Jackson. The girls gave their guys Christmas stockings and later they all went to a movie. Second semester began with a KT bake sale to raise money for BSU Summer Missions. The Spring Formal was held at the King’s Inn in Jackson, with Mr. B.C. Jones entertaining with impersonations of Mark Twain. KT had a role in Derby Day and the Intertribal Houseparty later in the Spring, and looks forward to another active and useful year coming up. 91 LT Starts Year by Winning Derby Day After winning the Derby Day games for the third year in a row, LT started working on projects for the new year. The first major activity was the Laguna rush party, whose theme was “An Evening in Paris.” The rush party included romantic songs and dances, skits, food, and a French fashion show. For Halloween the girls trick-or-treated for canned goods to be given needy families at Thanksgiving. Then came Homecoming! LT was indeed proud, because Ruthie Gandy, LT’s V.P., was MC ' s Homecoming queen, and Tricia Gilbert, LT’s president, was Senior Maid. Laguna had a tea for parents and alumni, and kept busy with other homecoming spirit activities. Laguna celebrated Christmas with a slumber party, a pledge luncheon, a Christmas party, and a service project (sending clothes to a needy neighborhood in the North). Spring semester was no less busy. The annual Mother- Daughter Luncheon and the McCarty Tea were held, plus a slumber party, a houseparty, and an exciting Spring Formal. Plans for the 1975 Derby Day ended the Laguna girls’ very eventful year. PICTURED BELOW: 1ST ROW: K. Donahoe, L. Hatchett, A. Forsythe, D. Steen, N. Lowery, D. Parten, R.

Much effort was put into their rush party, which was called “The Giving Tree.” Despite its large number, NT managed to keep each of its girls busy with many activities. After a week of making spirit signs, badges, attending pep rallies, wearing costumes, and making displays, Nenamoosha was awarded the Homecoming Spirit Stick. Later there was a slumber party, especially honoring the pledges. The Yuletide season was highlighted by a Christmas party and a Christmas service project. A hayride ended in food and entertainment at the Costas Lodge, which made a lovely Christmas party. But what really put NT’s members in a holiday mood was a party they gave for some Head Start children. This certainly ended 1 974 in a wonderful way for everyone. But 1975 promised good things too. Along with a thrilling Spring Formal, Nenamoosha also had a spring retreat for its members. All this, plus Derby Day ending the semester, kept anyone from getting bored in NT. 94 r T 1 7 it Mi M w wmtKkmtmm • ' « • ' ' ■ •„• %r ‘. , ' : W v v . ‘f. •iV v� _. ,■ ■;• ’. r ' • -., • ' ■Jf ' k fc ' - v £. - Members pictured ABOVE: STRETCHED OUT: Beaus Bill Ireland and David Shirley; 1ST ROW: P.

To start the year off right, the ST’s produced a charming rush party, “Walt Disney Presents Swannanoa.” Laughter and good fun abounded as Disney characters like Winnie the Pooh and the Seven Dwarfs pranced around. Later in the year, ST held a homecoming reception for parents and alumni. They also had a part in the homecoming parade and other spirited festivities. The ST’s Christmas party was patterned after an old-fashioned Yuletide. After caroling, the ST’s and their dates enjoyed decorating a tree, presenting a program, and eating much food. But the tribal year’s activities had hardly started. Under the leadership of their capable officers, a trip to New Orleans, a picnic for seniors and parents, a spring formal, and a slumber party was planned for the spring. Swannanoa, although the smallest tribe, made up for its size through its activities. Officers, L.

It carried out its theme of service by performing many projects of goodwill. The club members ushered for several campus activities and they worked to raise money for the Heart Fund and Multiple Sclerosis. They also manned the phones for the telethon for the Campus Life Enrichment Series. The guys participated in the Clinton Christmas Parade and held a Christmas party for the children from the Baptist Childrens’ Village. One of the club’s favorite activities was a camp-out with the boys from the Village. All in all, Circle K gave the campus an example of what a service club is all about.

Civitan Places Emphasis on Campus Life Civitan, a college division of Civitan International, stresses the building of citizenship while having fun and working on service projects. The highlight of the fall semester was Civitan’s annual Homecoming Spirit Run, this year to Florence, Al. The members ran a marathon to the University of North Alabama to challenge them in a move to build up Homecoming spirits. This year the club ran in record time, even with the sweethearts taking their miles too. For their service projects this year, Civitan members worked at the Crisis Center in Jackson, helping many young people. They also raised money for the BSU New Van Drive.

Pictured at right is Chief Justice Debbie Hodges, Debbie led the Judicial Council, whose members were: Melissa Elliott, Van Lewis, Ross Holley- man, Butch Hood, Ruthie Gandy, Cindy Nowell. 101 SBA Activities Were Many and Varied RIGHT: the SBA was in charge of the Homecoming activities.

Everyone dug up their sweaters, bobby socks, and bottles of hair oil for “Fifties Day” on Friday. Billboards, floats, and displays provided the background and boosted spirit, especially in the Nenamoosha Social Tribe, for they won the 1974 Spirit Awards. 104 105 M BSU Launches Drive to Buy New Van The BSU added a money-raising campaign for a new van to its already- full lists of projects for the year. This project was desperately needed, however, and some of the campus clubs pitched in to help. The BSU, whose director is Bradley Pope and whose asst, director is Darrell Boggs, also coordinated other activities. Tommy Anthony and Mary Bean were chairmen for Religious Emphasis Week, Feb. 10-14. Its theme was “Courage to Care,” and this week featured such speakers as Ken Lyle, Nell Magee, Lewis Myers, and Floyd Craig. Much emphasis was put on the Summer Missions Program during the last part of the year. Many projects were carried out in order to raise money for this important ministry. Eight student missionaries from MC were chosen; Bob Baker to go to Virginia, Eddie Broadhead to Bangladesh, Brenda Hunt to California, Don Dent to Oklahoma, Jennie Harwood to New York, Eric Holleyman to Israel, Barbara Hosey to Arizona, and Mike Lunceford to Florida! These trips present huge opportunities, but the student body also realized the enormous responsiblities. BSU has a great influence on the student body at MC, and its success comes from the hard workers within the organization.

Starting off by providing half-time entertainment at all games played on campus, the Marching Band also traveled to Shreveport, La., for the Baptist Christian College game. There they attended the Louisiana State Fair. In the Hom ecoming Activites the Band entered the float competition and captured first place with a unique assortment of detergent boxes on the back of a pickup truck. The Homecoming Parade was not only adorned by this creation, but also by the participation of the Band itself. During the week preceeding Nov. 2, the Band also vigorously supported all pep rallies and presented a beautiful background for the Homecoming Court. At the annual Clinton Christmas Parade, MC’s band joined with other bands and organizations to heighten the season’s spirit. On Dec. 1 1 , they presented a concert of Christmas selections at Care Inn. The Symphonic Band gave its annual Spring Concert in Nelson Auditorium on March 20. Mississippi College’s instrumental music department has achieved and maintained a quality program of entertainment and instruction. 129 m Dr. Nobles is a Warm and Capable Leader. i . .«r L Few students at MC really know much about their president, Dr. Lewis Nobles. Even though he and his wife are seen at all the basketball games or at many social fuctions, students only see him as an administrator. He’s quite talented, however, and very up-to-date concerning current issues. It is amazing, but Dr. Nobles finds time for varied projects and personal pleasures outside of his busy administrative time. Last year he worked on the research for and gained a fellowship for an MC chemist to work on a project for the Mississippi Heart Association. The purpose of the project is to find a substitute for digitalis, the heart medicine that is so dangerous, or at least find a way to combat its toxic effects. But research projects aren’t all Dr. Nobles does. He knows how to relax, too. He plays golf and basketball, and by the way, averages 8 out of 1 0 free throws. All in all, MC feels proud to be able to claim Dr. Nobles as her president. I • « Iff ♦ A n An accident took the life of Mr. Self on February 16, 1975.

Alice Cox Nellie Smith Rachel Smith mm Ann Weill Faculty Recap To portray the various aspects of learning at MC, anonymous faculty members from some divisions have been asked to tell what they think is the value of that division. This is what they had to say: The purpose of the Division of Science and Mathematics, consisting of the Departments of Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics, is to acquaint all students with the basics concepts of science and math essential for effective functioning in a modern society. For those planning a career in a field of science or math, advanced courses and supervised research are offered to prepare the student for his objective. Emphasis is placed on individual counsel and guidance in assisting in the selection of a field of study and the courses leading to that objective. Biology profs Cox and Gibson conduct a vivisection. 152 f Dr. Hollis Todd, Head of Speech, discusses operation of MC’s long-striven- for radio broadcasting system. The course of study in the Business Division is based on the realization that education for business or office management is a life-long process and that the division can make its greatest contribution to the process by teaching the disciplines which by teaching the disciplines which underlie the practice of business. Details of current business practice, though important, can be best taught by business itself and learned through experience. Therefore, the Division of Business and Economics seeks to provide the basis for life-long learning through actual experience. The Humanities— language, literature, speech, and communicative arts— these are the areas of learning that aid man in communication and in understanding himself and others better. Man ' s culture and ideals are transmitted through his language, and it is the purpose of this division to present for analysis, enjoyment, and adaption those aspects of its discipline which broaden man’s life and give insight into that life. The liberally educated man is the one who appreciates language and its communicative powers. The Division of Religion, composed of Bible, Philosophy, Religous Education, and New Testament Greek, endeavors to contribute toward the intellectual and spiritual development of students at MC, seeking to give to them a deeper appreciation for the value of the Christian faith and a more profound commitment to Christian ideals. Lest such an aim become a nebulous something, practical instruction in various biblical courses are offered, bringing the student face to face with concrete values and ideals. The aim of every instructor is to implant in every students a self-motivated desire for further inquiry into religious and philosophical truths. Whether these studies are terminal or foundational for a student, the Division looks to both types of students with deep concern. The faculty of Mississippi College School of Nursing recruits and selects individuals who demonstrate potentials for learning and express interest in nursing as a career. The faculty provides the individual with a comprehensive program of educational experiences. This basic preparation proposes to develop professional nurses and to prepare the students for advanced studies. The graduate of the School of Nursing will demonstrate a philosophy conducive to personal growth and fulfillment and a commitment to professional nursing as a dynamic role in a changing society. Dr. Sam Gore adds a flair to required chapel with his artwork. 153 Mm w4 ' ' ' ' ■ ' . v p JH ES|i|j3r MV ' - iV! 154 i pggp Wm B||� . .-• , ' V- - ifcilS mMm wmm . pptti feiv, ' • • . • • ; v - .

Remember . . . electricity serves you best when you use it wisely. Nowadays it’s patriotic to be a “watt-wise” consumer . . . and it makes good sense, too, because it saves you money. Here are some things to do to help use electricity efficiently and economically: 1) When you’re buying an electric appliance, choose the proper size for your needs. 2) To conserve on heating and cooling, make sure your house is well insulated, with doors and windows weather-stripped. 3) Use appliances like a dishwasher and clothes washer and drver only with a full load.

Good or bad, I’ll never be the same. It’s too bad that all the students can’t witness the makeup of a book that tries to capture the year at a busy college. They would, undoubtedly, be more appreciative of the efforts made by so many, especially the administrators, to provide them with what they need and want. The staff and I have fulfilled our almost overwhelming job of composing this book. We have tried to put the emphasis on the individuals at MC this year instead of worrying about how “creative” we were. We honestly think that the various characters on this campus are twice as fascinating as a special effect photograph. Some will strongly disagree with our portrait of MC, but we do hope that most will see a part of themselves in these pages. We are grateful to dozens of people; most will never be named. But we have to express our appreciation to the Public Information Office, the Collegian, the Business Office, the Publications Council, Jan Hederman, Mr. Russell Hobgood (for many photographs), and all those who helped us by identifying pictures, typing, writing copy, and giving us encouragement. I personally would like to thank my family and my staff, especially Teresa, Vicki, Peggy, and Marty, for I worked them to death, and we all thank the good Lord, who pulled us through this project.
