' I ' he Hall will long he I ' cmembered foi ' its beauty as well as for the scai ' city of men. The class had lost some of its men. They had been induc ' ted into the ai ' Uied forces. Another September found tlujse among the class, who had diligently applied tliemsehes. re- tiu ' ning as Sojjhomores. X ' etei ' ans retin-ning from war duties found themselves gladly welcomed into the class. Altliougii the class had dwindled in num- ber the I ' reshman year, the ktss was made u]) the .So|)homore year l)y retm-ning etei ' an students. This was a year in which the class ' s activities were at a minimum. I ' erhaps one can say with some degree of truth that the lag was due to the intensive study program followed by most of the members of the class. There is e i(lence to show tii.-it tiic st ' ]iolarsbi|) of the class began to moxe u|jward tiiat year. The girls of the Sophomore class upheld their class in an inter-dormitory competitive Christmas Sing and weie awarded first ])rize by Dr. A. L. Turner, former Acting-Dean of the college. The So|)homoi ' e yeai- came to a close with a dance at which individual sophomores. ho had done su])erior work were recognized pulilicly. The year llt j was a great year! The class re- turned and assumed an air of dignity fur tiiis was the .lunior year. The war ended and more veterans joined the ranks of the class. Football returned to the campus. The Junioi- in sponsoring a gala -la class aided the Senior Homecoming Day. Realizing the dire neetl for a representative student council, the class appointed a committee to formulate a constitution for the proposed student government. The committee along with faculty advisors worked diligently on the constitution, which was later ])resented to the entire student body at the beginning of the school term Ii)-K -1! 47. The .Junior-Senior att ' air s])ons()red by the .Jun- ior class was the first of its type to be held on the campus. It was termed a Dinnei ' -Dance by the .Juniors. It had all the trimmings including a mis- tress-of-ceremonies, a guest speaker, and presenta- tions of both Senioi ' and .Jimior class pi-esidents. It was an affair to be long remembered. As .Senioi ' s. the class returned in September l! 4(i to find that its number had steadily increased with moi-e eterans. ' I ' he school term stai ' ted with the Senior Class launching the student government |)rogram. which ])roved successful, and has resulted into a functioning student council.

The outstanding features of the book are a Court of Reauty with the selection of the (|ueen by Miss Hazel Scott, star of stage and screen, and a detailed aerial view of the college campus. The class has de ()te l its time to the production of a class play. ' I ' he I ost Horizon, under the di- rection of Dr. Helen Ci. Kdmonds, the class gift and Class Day Activities. Individual membei ' s of the class have distin- guished themselves during the four years at Xorth Carolina College. .John Rrown, the All-Ainerican athlete, has acce|)ted an offer to play professional football with the Los Angeles Dons. Ethel l d- mundson. a Social Science major. i ' ecei ed the (ii ' aduate Teachers ' .Scholarship to the l ' ni ersity of Chicago where she will study for a .Master of Arts degree in Kuropean History. Willi definite symptoms of nostalgia, the class of 1!)47 walks through the gates of North Carolina College, turning around for one last look. ' I ' he place seems to have taken on an ancient, time hon- ored air or perhaps it was never noticed before. Thus ends one |)hase of the life of the class of ' 47. A new, startling and exciting world challenges it. Will the class meet the challenae? Junior Class Our college career began liaek in ]!)44 as a multitude of over one hundred typical freshmen, green, disorganized, and not knowing what college was all about. We did our part in withstanding the assaults of the upperclassmeii and rode the goat as well as any class of fresh- men ever em-olled at State. Our accomplishments for the year amounted to more than an adjustment to our new environment. In this the sophomores played a cons])icu()us j)art. ' llen wc hecame sophomores, we approached somewhat nearer to civili ation. Harold Kp])s molded for our class a spirit of cooper- ation which won the admiration and supjjort of the faculty and other student organizations. We have still another year liefore graduation, and wc may be heard from before that time, and for e ermore afterwards. Tor ' • •• ' ' ■ ' ' i-iu ' ' ' : i,.ST )N H., Social Science.

This groui) of yiiuiif) ' men and women, showing an exceptional amount of initia- tive and spirit for newcomers, is interested in maintaining high standards in scholarship and athletics. The most lucid and vivid exhibitions of school s]nrit are seen in athletics, and especially in intramural events, therefore it might be interesting to note tliat the class has identified itself actively in athletics at the school. They realize that through virtue and integrity, their highest ideals can l)e accomplished, and with this in mind have attempted to make an honest and speedy adjustment to college conditions, so all of the activities of the school: musical, social, athletic, literary and civic have had their share of freshmen, who sometimes with hesitance, but always with curiosity and willingness, have tried to get themselves into every ])ossible activity on the campus. The class wisiies to thank those .Juniors and Seniors, who. giving up a poi ' tion of their vacation week returned early in the fall to induct them into N. C. College life, to point out the obstacles to success, and in all cases to encourage and sustain them during a trying pe- riod. .( I„ rhjht: tlarita, Gk. Paiik.:r, CiKRAi.u, Durllam, N. C Whitakers, N.

C. in 1940 was higli- ligiited with several colorful games. The team completed the season with 7 wins and 3 losses, the most spectacular win being over Tennessee State College 14-(i in the Cajjital Classic game in AA ' ashington, I). C. Captained by Co- Cajjtains John Hrown and Carl Cialbi ' eatli the Eagles got off to a great start with an 8.3-0 win o er a Fort .Jackson army team. An mi- defeated season seemed to be in the making as the Eagles rolled oxer Delaware State 29-0, liluefield State 19-0, Winston-Salem Teach- ers 27-0 and Virginia l nion 13-0. On Novem- ber 1, the Eagle Domain was honored by the sponsors of the Capital Classic with an invi- tation to particij)ate in this annual event, labeled by many as the Little Rose Howl. Going to Washington as the underdogs, the boys had to reallv Key themselves for the game. AN ' itb I ' eerman and ANHiittield playing some of their best brand of football at the end positions, while Uritt and Galbreath displayed some of their fancy ball carrying, N. C. Col- lege surprised 27,000 fans with a stunning up- set over the Xo. 1 football team in the country. Lawrence Perry, one of the best defensive men on the Held, combined his talents with l?ig Hrown, the center, to hold the Ten- nesseans to one tally. Playing superb ball against a superb team, the proilucts of Coach Herman Riddick handed the men of Coach Kean their first and only defeat for the 1946 season. Rritt accounted for the first tall} ' on a 10-yard spi-int off tackle that climaxed an 8()-yard drive, (ialbreath darted 37 yards for the second score on a beautiful end run. Oiu ' dro]) kicking sjiecialist and (|iiartcrl)ack, James Jimmie Lineiiei-ger, accounted for both extra points, in the ganie that was said to be the greatest ever played in Griffith Stadium. The boys from Durham received their first set-back from X. C. College ' s greatest rival, A. T. College. Lafayette, Roberson, Robin- son, Brown, Whitfield and others were play- ing their first game against the Aggies since Dr. ' illiam (ins Ciaines ( All-iVmerican 19-H-1942) kicked :i field goals and 1 extra l)oint against A. T. in 1942. These men received their first taste of defeat from an Aggie aggregation since 1940, when Richard Dick ftlack, one of N. C. C. ' s greatest run- ning backs, was at his best. A. T. upset this great 1946 team 17-0 just as they did in 1940. In our Homecoming Day game with an- other of our traditional rivals. J. C. Smith I ' niversity, the men of Maroon and Gray car- ried on in grand style. Defeating J. C. Smith 20-0, the boys rouiided out one of X. C. C. ' s greatest Homecomings. With gahi floats, class and organizational queens, homecoming was . the greatest in Kagle liis- tory. Miss Beniice Fos- ter of Durham, reigned as Miss Honiecoining in honor of the men of Eagledom. Miss Foster was crowned at the half- time by C ' ()-C ' a]jtain Carl Galbreath as Co-Captain John Brown looked on. Her attendants were Misses Pauline Marsh. Margaret Stewart and Mable Dupree. The game was highlighted with a spectacular 8()-yard run by Galbreath which set off the tire works that en- abled the team to march on. In our most important game of the season with the Trojans of Vir- ginia State, tlie F agles. still gunning for a top ])lace in the conference, fell to the tune of 14 to 6. In a game that was bitterly fought, the Eagles line received its greatest jjraise as the Sons of Troy took to the air to outscore the team. William Huck I ' eerman accounted for our lone marker on a beautiful pass from William Lafayette, one of the best passers in the C. I. A. A. Conference. In our last game against Shaw l niversity. the entire s])orts world was surprised as the Bears defeated the Eagles for the first time in over 10 years l- ' J-f!. In this traditional Thanks- Galbreath In Action Against J. C. Smith giving Day game. X. C.

Conference, his plans at this writing include a tryoiit with the I.,os Angeles Don Professional football team. Hubert Butch Robinson, ending three years in an Kagle uniform, was chosen on the second team All-C. 1. A. A. at the guard position to bring another conference honor to this school for 1946.

SliiiHliiio. Irfl I Dougal, Chicago, 111.; Kiissell Willi.i In the winter time at X. C. C. all the eye.s are turned toward the e()llei ' e fivninasimn and the ever-Hying Kagle ha.skethall team. Foi- the jKist .seven years the P agles have always finisiied first or second in the eonferenee and again the C. I. A. A. erown was taken hy this school for the 1047 season. X. C. College was kept in the limelight in the haskethall world as Coach McLendon ' s hoys won 1.5 out of 18 conference games to maintain the hest offen- sive record in the C. I. A. A. o er an eight year period. The Eagles led hy Ca])tains John JJrown and Auhrey Stanley ])laye l ])rohal)ly the toughest schedide in the conference. Ke- ceiving their stiff est competition from A. T. College, Howard l ni ersity. Union I niver- sity, Virginia State College and Morgan State College, the sons of Kagledom lost one game to each of the three latter- teams. Stanley, the team ' s highest scorer in li)4.5, 1940 and llt-17, 1 HiKkii.-r, Kan.sas Citv, Mo.; cttivilU-, N. C; Frank Har- irisas Citv, Mo.; Elmer Mc- AriMour, Indianapolis, Ind.; Ind., Co-Captain. was one of the greatest threats in the confer- ence. In many games, coaches used two men to attempt to stop this shooting artist. The team, losing all three games away from home, always gave their foe a great, hard game and ])rovided the fans with the color that goes with e ery sports attraction. Prohahly the most spectacular game of the season was against A. T. College. It was in this game that X . C. C. trailed in the last three minutes of play and had everyone on edge until the Aggies ]ilew-U]) ' and the Kagles took advantage of the sitii.-ition. N ' ith IJrown directing tlie team from tiie floor in his cool manner, the team caught up with their opponents and went on to (lefeat them. Another of our most pressing- games, was against Howard I ' iii ersity. Kven though the team did not trail Howard at any p((int (liu-ing the game, the Hisoiis stayed within four points of the Kagles and allowed N. C. C to will liy one point, ■i-l-ia. The season vv;i.s finislitd with this school liol(lin ' many records, in fact holding more records in basketball than any other school in tile C. I. A. A. and possibly in the nation. The end of the 1947 sea- son left this school with 131 wins against 30 losses for an .884 iiercentage over a ten year ])eri()(l. The national record for highest game jjoint aver- age of ()(! |)oints made in 1944 still holds; also the C. I. A. A. all-time scor- ing record, which is 119- 34 made against St. Augustine College in .ATHLETE OF VE. H Stanley In Action Against Morgan Bears JoH.v E. Broun 1944, still stands and is one in which we have much ))ride. To mention a few more of the records that are held by this school. I relate to you these that I consider most significant: (1) con.secutive games won, 26; (2) first team to win a C. I. A. A. Tournament; (3) more championships and runner-ups than any team in the C. I. A. A. and (5) ranked as the No. 1 basketball team in the country four times. It is with pride that we ended our 1947 conference season on top and continue in the spotlight in conference competition. In the ])ost season C. I. A. A. Tournament, (. oaches McLendon and Leroy Walker took their conference champions to AVashington, 1). C. with every team in the tournament out to trip the high-flying Eagles. Dela- ware State was a j)usli-over for the boys from Durham as they defeated this fighting team 71-(iO in the first game of the tourney. The second tournament encoun- ter was not an easy one for the boys. Howard Univer- sity was the foe and a mighty foe the Bisons were. tlie score see-sawing through the entire game, the At the time of year when recognition is given to members of various athletic teams for outstanding performances, it was only fitting that North Carolina College, this year, selected its first Athlete of the Year. The recipient of this Iionor for the year iyi.6 and 7 is Jolin Big Bro,vn, 6 ' t . -JSl lb. senior from Gary, Indiana. Having excelled in North Carolina College ' s two major sports, football and basketball, and captained the teams out of his four years of play. Brown climaxed Iiis collegiate career in athletics in a blaze of glory. An honor student, student leader, and a team leader, the selection of this gentleman could not liave been better. The Maroon and Gray is liappy to commend this well known Eagle and member of Coach McLendon ' s All-Time Basketball and Football Teams for North Carolina College for being the first recipient of this high honor. We are happy to add his name to those of George Mack and Reginald Ennis listed in our imaginary Hall of Fame. Eagles Depart For Tournament men (if .Manidii anil (;ray etlned ,,ut over the men from the capital city -H to i:i. In the finals, the highly favored p agles met tlie un- flerdof; |eam of the tonrnament. A ' irgima State. Tliis seventh ])laee team scored one of the greatest npsets in C. I. A. A. history as they defeated X. C. College .54 to 47 to ' win the tournament erown and leave X. C. College in second place. The second place P agles could not l)e denied the recognition that was due them. The newspapers exemplified this when they placed three sons of Kagledom on their all-tournament teams. Receiving the honor to he jjlaccd on this mythical team were Jf.hn -Hig Erown. Richard Miller and Roh- ert Herring. All three men were jjlaced on the first team. In addition to these men bringing All-Tournament honors to the school, and in addition to heing the runner-ups in the tournament, the Eagles returned to their nest with the greatest trojjhy ever to grace a Xorth Carolina College troi)hy case. This trophy. the one of which we are all ])rou(l. was given tn the team for Outstanding Team Sports- manship and Team Decorum. The greatest sportsmen in the C. I. A. A. haskethall confer- ence had finished another great tournament and proved that men can he great losers as well as great winners. At the end of the season. Coach .McLendon announced his list of most vahial)le players on the S(piad. Re])eating ficmi last vcar was Au- brey Stinkey Stanley who was accompanied by John Big Rrown and Richard Mice Miller. Hrown. considered by many to be the 1 est general ever to i)lay in the conference, was the mainstay of the team. An All-American guard in I ' M-J. he was the sjiarkplug of the 1!)47 team. Miller, a .5 (i jufiior from Kansas City. Kansas, was considered by many tn be ihe most aggressive, best defensive and most sportsmanlike player on the team. The per- formance dis])layed by these three men during the 1047 season would merit them a place on any person ' s valuable jjlayer list. To comidete my sunnnary of the 1947 bas- ketl)all season, I again doff iiiy hat to a great s(|ua(l and a great coaching st ' aft ' . The .squad, with three semors, was one of which any fol- lower of basketball would otter highest respect. Elmer McDougal. a steller center and holder of the conference free-throw record ( 19 out of 20 in three games) contributed his talents to the develo])ment of the team. The whiz kids, Moreland Huckner, Frank (ialhreath, Richard Miller, and Robert Herring, have earned a place in the pages of C. I. A. A. history. They received the highest resjjccts from every teaiii encountered and became the most feared com- bination in the conference. Each of these midg- ets, standing under .5 ' ( was a constant threat and each was a ball hawk. Other mainstays were Harvey, the first jilayer to score in a (Ciinliiiind mi Pac c Hi;) Graduate School Of Science Shirley Curnwaij. B.S., Johnson C.

I. A. A. conference. North Carolina College ' s cindernien have won the respect of every coach and team in the conference. With nieager facilities and few- men. Coach AValker took his track team to the C. I. A. A. track meet at Hampton, ' irginia. and won fourth place honors in the 19-Ki meet. Along with fourth place honors for the team, individual honors were taken hy memhers of our sijuad. Rudolph Rocky Roherson, one of X. C. C ' . ' s first three-letter men, estahlished a new record for the discus. Hurling the dis- cus 136 ' , he completely outclassed all other participants. In addition to estahlishing a new record for the discus, Roherson threw the jave- lin 172 ' 10 to become the 10-i() champion jave- lin thrower in the C. I. A. A. In 1947 more interest was shown in the track activities. The 19-17 sipiad, under the captaincy of Earl Lover Foster, had such talent as Charles S. Harrison, Charles AVhite, (irady Rethel, Samuel R. Whitfield and Sanuiel Villianls. These men nn ler abnormal conditions gave their hearts and souls to the task of putting North Carolina College on top in the track world. In our first 1947 track competition, a dual meet Mas staged with Shaw University. Shaw won the meet after oui- men had staged an exhibition of determination. Earl I ' oster won the one and two mile events in this meet. The team prepared for stiff er com- f VICTORY BOOSTERS Captain Earl Foster |)(.-titi()ii by participating ill tlie North Carolina Re- lays in Greensboro. X. C .. witii A. T. College as liost. The men really pro e(l themselves at this meet by winning the meet with a 40 point margin over the other teams. Fos- ter won the one and two mile events. Harrison won the one-fonrth mile and AVliitfield was sec- ond. Williams won the shot-])iit and White won the 22()-yard dash. At this writing the 1!)47 team has just com- pleted particijjation in the Second Annual Xorth Carolina College Inter-Collegiate, Inter- .Sciiohistic Tiack and Field Carnival. This annual event under the direction of Coach I eroy K. Walker ])roved to be of great significance to both the scholastic and collegiate entries. In the scholastic division. .Second Ward High School of Charlotte, N. C.. walked away with to|) honors and many individual honors. Our great track team composed of ten men put on one of the greatest exhibiti ins of determination ever witnessed on a track in many years. Howard l niversity with thirty men was favored to win over Shaw University. A. T. College, J. C. Smith University. AVinston-Salem Teachers College, St. Aiigustiiie College and Xorth Carolina College. Howard was able to enter two and three men in every event and thereby were at a greater advantage for winning the meet. However, the fleet-footed Kagles. with 1 . ' 5 as many men is Howard, proxed that ([uality is better than quan- tity by tieing with Howard 48-48 for first place honors. The s]jortsmaidike men from X. C. C. gave the team troj)hy to the Howard team since the Eagles were hosts for the meet. How- evei ' , many honors were taken by individual members of our team. Again Foster was the winner of the one and two mile events. He proved himself to be one of the top milers in the conference and has become one of the most feared. White accounted for five points on the cinders as he burned the track in a 0.8 seconds 100- yard (lash. Five more points were also accounted for by A niite as he won the 220 yard dash in 22.8 seconds. In the field events, the champion javelin thrower of the C. I. A. A., Riidoljjh Kober- son. threw the javelin and the discus to win another first place and 10 points. Samuel Williams and Hilbur Sparrow brought two more top positions to this school as AVilliams tied with a Howard contestant for first place in the shot-])ut and S])arrow high jumped .5 10 to win this event. The track team and coaches deserve highest praise for their work and their efforts in trying to place X. C. College on top in the track world. This 1947 track s(|uad will go down in the pages of X. C. College History for the part they contributed to North Carolina College athletics. Track Stars HAij)niN Whitfield Nn Charles Harrison Women In Sports Women have taken a place in onr intramural sports program. They have aroused keen competi- tion among themselves and look forward to com- jteting against each other for top intramural hon- ors. Guided by the Physical Education Lajors and Minors, an active and interesting program con,sist- ing of basketball, softball, archery, swimming and other sports took the spotlight in the 1047 activities. The to]) featin-e of the program for 1947 was the basketball tournament which caught the atten- tion of the entire student body.

Assigmneiit.s had to be made. Advertising space had to l)e sold. AVrite-ups were due. Seniors were slow in iiaving their pictures made. Letters from the engra er were sometimes good, sometimes had. Picture mounting was often done until ■ ' wee-hours ' in tlie morning. The laroon and Gray was on the way. We have worked long and hard oxer her. we have sweated and toiled, l)ut tinallv, our l)rain ciiild has lieen completed. The adxisors, the staff, the ])hotogi-aplier. the printer and engraver — all have adiled their liit. We have striven arduously to make this the hest yearl)ook. Never before have so few done so much for so little. The hours were long, the work was monotonous; the credit is given here. Kditor: Clifford Jenkins. Associate Editors: Artinise Marie Woody.
