R History of th V X indispensable' and Joseph During the fall of 1933 an observer might ha faces entering the portals of Morris College Campu inquire he would have learned that we hailed from ah ,.arts of eluding Elloree, Oswego, Sumter, Georgetown, Greenville, Bishop Timmonsville, Kershaw, Hopkins, Hartsville, Eastover, and Spartanburg. Then too, these tw | puzzling questions might have entered the observer’s mind: “Which part of the state was yielding up the best college material? and: “Could these “happy-go-lucky” children ever really becomtl serious students ?” We were bubbling over with such vague questions and answers as these: “What are you going to take?” “How many subjects can we take?” “I prefer teacher-training,” was offered by “Zet”, Mozetta Fleming. “Same for me,” joined in “Lil Ole Girl”, Sadie Smith, “Bill”, Wilhelmena.j Ham and Elizabeth Burton. “We’ll face Trigonometry and American Democracy”, said Brydia Tyndal. Isaiah Boone, and Iris Ladsen. “Mixed this year, straighten up next”, briefly added Gama] Mae Jackson. Well it was soon to be revealed that the Freshmen class of ’33 was to be an part of Morris College and it’s various activities William Muldrow, Wilson Bradley, Davis joined the Quintet and played a major role in representing Morris College during the sue-: ceding years. “Zint”, Henry Zimmerman, Eugene Neal, “Cagle”, J. F. Belton, all gave support to the football team, and later joined the baseball squad along with “Birdie”, Fred Ramsey. Despite the numerous “hard knocks” that come from inexperience, we passed from Freshmen to Sophomores almost before we knew it. Again, had the observer returned he would have noted we began the school term of 1934 with much more thoughtfulness and seriousness. Smooth sailing the first semester—too smooth I guess, for, at the beginning of the second semester Messers Campbell and Chick said. “We are going to change this”. Naturally we became frightened, for, although hours were not altered immediately we knew that it would not be long. However, the tenseness of the situation was relieved somewhat as members from our midst began to play more and more important roles in the school organizations, athletic teams, the Glee Club, Quartettes, plays, and other entertainments. ; By our Junior year—1935 Henry Zimmerman had proven himself the all around man of our class, always puttings his best forward in whatever he undertook. Iris Ladsen sobered somewhat when she changed her name to McLaughlin. “One degree, three hours and five subjects”, shouted Mr. Campbell. “Classes until four and more work”, came from Dean Booker. When our fright finally subsided enough, we looked at the situation seriously, trying to think of some remedy. Logic, ethics, and psychology were all used but to no avail. Five subjects we had to take, and hard work we had to do. Then came our Senior year. From our books we lifted our heads and asked our adviser: “Where do we go from here, Mr. McCain?” He advised us to use every moment of this last year advantageously, and let no opportunity to use our various talents slip by. We must not let this opportunity pass”, said Misses Bradley and Smith as they passed in their applications for membership in the Commercial Club. “Well I’ll contribute m.v little bit to basketball”, said “Pigeon”-Adeline Boatwright. “Get Brydia or Garna to type this off”, said Etehrine Thompson as she placed her article on file for the “Campus Voice”. From time to time our number would increase as a newcomer would join us. and we were happy to welcome as our last addition McCormick Norris from Winston-Salem. North Carolina. Now the curtains are nearly drawn on this four years of college drama. The last scene will be when our degrees are awarded to us, and as we receive them it will be with a great deal of pride— knowing that we are being justly rewarded for our hard work. We hope that we have not only made class history, but that we have added something definite and worthwhile to the history of Morris College. We go out now on the mission on which we are sent by President Pinson and Lis faculty—to show through our speech, conduct, and life work what four years of cultural and intellectual training and contact have meant to us. Thus, on May 26. 1937. it is with heavy—yet loyal hearts that we leave the curricular and extra-curricular activities of our Alma Mater. Reverent ly, with bowed heads we pass to our inevitable destinies. —Garna Mae Jackson .37 PAGK SIXTEEN
