F. , Indianhead Co-r-ditor, Emeritan, Alpha Psi Omega, Dramatics BELIEVE ME IF ALL THOSE ENDEARINc ' YOUNG CHARMS. The dignity of a princess, combined with beauty and cheer- fulness. When there is work to be done, a part in a play to be acted, a speech to be made, a meal to be cooked, a yearbook to be edited, typing to be done, a baby to be rocked, or fun to be had, Loleta is ready to do her part. Her philosophy is Few things are impossible to diligence and skill.. Her personality and charm have made for her an indelible im- pression on all our hearts. LILLIAN F. LOCKLEAR FRESHMAN: B.S.U., Y.W.A., Pontiac Society, El Arco Iris, Dramatics. SOPHOMORE: B.S.U. , President of Y. W.

SENIOR: Y.W.A., Choister for B. S. U. , Alpha Psi Omega, Co-Editor of Indianhead. THERE ' S A ST5NC IN MY HEART. We might cal l Lillian the Lily Pons of Pembroke. Of course, music is her love, business her vocation. In addition to the prominent part which Lillian has had in many extra- curricular activities, she has always maintained a high average in scholarship. We will miss her soprano voice for awhile, but, it won ' t be long before we can look in and hear her melodious voice on TV. 34 GtUt D, efficAJja PAULINE LOCKLEAR FRESHMAN: Pfeiffer Junior College.

F. , Math Club, Y.W.A. , Social Club, Assist- ant Business Manager of Indianhead. THY BEAMING EYES. Pauline is always bubbling over with something to say. Such a vocabulary would silence Marder. A transfer student from Pfeiffer, she quickly entered into the spirit of P. S. C. A wide trave ler, she always holds us spellbound with her Tales of Adventures , especially those of Cuba. Her childlike voice has become a part of us and we will always remember her for it. MARVIN RANSOM FRESHMAN: w. F. , Pontiac Society, Veterans ' Club.

Marvin is one of those more fortunate souls who started earning while the rest of us, poor parasites, were still learn- ing. If success depends on serious and faithful application we predict for our former class president a successful teaching career. 35 PATRICIA C.

Quiet, studious, dependable, generous, Patricia goes about her study of flowers and insects. She left the loving arms of the girls ' dorm to establish her own home. Our sincere wishes go with you, Pat. ' c yfoP (-C jLasLiiiX. JJeSMi a .- CLEARCIE LOCKLEAR FRESHMAN: W. F. , Emeritan Society, Dramatics Club. SOPHOMORE: W. F. , Emeritan Society, Dramatics Club.

Petite, vivacious, talkative, enthusiastic, talented Clear - cie. Due to a special interest in the Freshman class, we feel that your concern about P.S.C. will not be on the wane during the next few years. Your racing footsteps will be missed in the halls, but will resound in our hearts. FORAGE OXENDINE FRESHMAN: W. F. , Emeritan Society, Football, Basketball, Baseball, Social Club, Veterans ' Club. SOPHOMORE: W. F. , Emeritan Society, Basketball, Baseball, Social Club, Veterans ' Club. JUNIOR: W. F. , Emeritan Society, Basketball, Base- ball, Social Club, Veterans ' Club, Student Council. SENIOR: W. F. , Emeritan, Basketball, Baseball, Social Club, Veterans ' Club, Class President, Indianhead Staff, TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL, GAME. Forace, our only major league baseball player, joined our ranks this year after having served in the ranks of Uncle Sam. His capacity for leadership was quickly recognized and captured by the members 6f the Senior class. Remember us, Forace, when you are placed in the Hall of Fame beside Marilyn ' s Joe. 0 lA L.

Quiet, modest, warmhearted, generous, sweet, smiling, and sophisticated --all these qualities and more belong to our elfin Evie. Quite a talented reader she is too. We wish for her the very best in life. MK HELEN E. HAMMONDS FRESHMAN: Pontiac Society, B.S.U., Y.W.A. SOPHO- MORE: Pontiac Society, Corresponding Secretary of B.S. U. , Y.W.A., Class Treasurer. JUNIOR: B.S.U., Emeritan Society. SENIOR: B.S. U. , Emeritan Society, Feature Editor of the Indianhcad. CHARLIE, MY BOY. Once a tiny girl who played Little Sunboimet Jane , now Helen, has her own little tots to don sunbonnets. Not only has Helen dramatic ability, she has a lovely voice and a wonderful personality. There ' s something very likeable about her; maybe it ' s her twinkling brown eyes and mischie- vous smile. MARY LOUISE CUMMINGS FRESHMAN: Band, B.S. U. , Emeritan, Y.W.A. SOPHO- MORE: Band, Emeritan, Social Club, B.S.U. Council, Y. W. A. Council. JUNIOR: Social Club, Devotional Leader of B.S.U., Program Chairman of Y. W. A., Emeritan Society. SENIOR: B.S.U., Emeritan Society, President of Y. W. A. , Secretary of Student Council, Secretary of Senior Class, Home Economics Club. YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE. We readily associate the name Louise with Y. W.A. ,and with Lou Henry. Her dependability is emphasixed by the many secretarial offices which she holds. Louise is one of those rare individuals who has the distinction of being Miss Sharpe ' t little girl. She has won a place in the hearts of everyone by her gentle and wholesome manner. 38 PRESTLEY LOWRY FRESHMAN: President of Emeritan Society, Art Editor of Pine Needle, Veterans ' Club. SOPHOMORE: Publicity Chairman for W. F. , Emeritan Society, Veterans ' Club. JUNIOR: Social Chairman of W.F., Emeritan Society, Vet- erans ' Club. SENIOR: Social Chairman of W. F. , Emeritan Society, Veterans ' Club, Art Club. I ' M ONLY PAINTING THE CLOUDS WITH SUNSHINE. Prestly ' s our artist --always laughing, spreading sunshine, and enjoying life. Who spread paint all over Miss R ' s best paper? Who painted the signs that dangled across the high- way? Why, the artist of our class, Prestley. He not only spreads paint but cheer, and good will. He has mastered the art of making friends. His merry laughter will long re-echo through our memories. LOU HENRY LOWRY FRESHMAN: Band, W. F. , Y. W.A., Emeritan, ElArcoIris. SOPHOMORE: Band, W. F. , Y.W.A., Emeritan Society, El Arco Iris. JUNIOR: W. F. , Emeritan Society. SENIOR: Art Club, Corresponding Secretary of Y. W. A. , Emeritan Society, Home Economics Club. LITTLE THINGS MEAN A LOT. Who is the baby of the class ? Why, Lou Henry, of course. But her smallness of stature does not prevent her from keeping pace with her classmates in scholarship and college activities. Most noticeable characteristic is that genuine smile. Lou Henry and Lou-ise go tegether like peaches and cream. We predict big things for our baby. 39 Jf,.

Let it be a wedding cake or a simple steak, Katie can do it. So many are her domestic talents, we can say of her; A mistress of that hidden skill, she makes herself her wants fulfill. f A_ IvJju JL SARAH NEIL BULLARD FRESHMAN: .

Sara has gained many friends in Pembroke. She is one of the most attractive girls in the Senior class. Her carefree dis- position and sportsmanship unite to form a distinct personality. £).

JUST ADOLPH AND ME AND THE BABY MAKES THREE. A quick brain, an independence, and a friendliness char- acterize Dorothy. She is a bundle of vivacity with mischief in her eye. She is jolly, witty, and always ready for fun and frolic. Her cheerfulness in the face of many obstacles will always be remembered by those who worked by her side in many activities.

SENIOR: Emeritan Society, Y.W.A. , Program Chairman of El Arco Iris, Reporter for W. F. , Glee Club, Social Club, Library Staff, Indianhead Staff. GONE ARE THE DAYS WHEN MY HEART WAS YOUNG AND GAY. If you want to find Joyce, just look in the Spanish room, her second home. But Spanish is not her only love; she received her M. R.S. a few days after having completed her B. A. Joyce is always a faithful and loyal member to both her ideals and her class. RALPH HUNT FRESHMAN: B.S.U., Basketball, Baseball, Pontiac Society, Math Club, Vice-President of Class.

Ralph nas the rare distinction 01 Deing the only bachelor of the class. In scholarship he is tops and his popularity is shown by the many offices which he heads. He is the one on whom we can depend to solve all our problems. He is quite studious and yet he has a fun-loving and frolicsome nature when occasion demands. 42 BERTHA L.

SENIOR: Emeritan Society, Y.W.A., W. F. , Marshal, Library Staff. ONLY A ROSE. Those who know Bertha love her for her friendliness, her cheerfulness, and her sympathetic spirit. Those who do not know her are attracted by her charming personality. She is studious but never fails to get her share of good times. OdJiko Xc ovum.

She is a dependable girl, one who is not only honest, but honorable, having a sterling character. 43 NANCY ANN LOCKLEAR A former teacher in the public schools. IF YOUR HEART K EEPS RIGHT. Just a few of the many characteristics of Nancy Ann-- quiet and unassuming, always smiling, the same to everyone, and ever ready to be a friend. Nancy, we wish you the great- est of success.

F. through a beautiful year of activities. We are mighty p.-oud of you young fellow. V MARY LEE GOINS A teacher in the public schools. IT ' S BETTER TO LAUGH THAN BE SIGHING. She ' s an unusual combination of wit and humor md there ' s always fun when she enters the conversation. Mary Lee has the kind of sunshiny disposition which one reads about, for there are always smiles on her trail. We ' ll never forget you. JESSIE BELLE CHAVTS A teacher in the public schools. SMILING THROUGH. A steady, conscientious, and hard working person is Jessie Belle. We are happy to count you as a member of our class. CLAUDE SAMPSON A teacher in the public schools. FOR HE ' S A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW. We haven ' t seen as much of Claude as we would like, but judging by his grades he would put most of us to shame. Reports are that he is an excellent teacher. But, we think of him as the boy who had to stay after school--in extension classes. DOROTHY C. OXENDINE A teacher in the public schools. BEAUTIFUL DREAMER. If you want to know anything about Texas, ask Dorothy-- the Lone Star state is only second to the Tar Heel state which she chose some years ago. Dorothy has managed to rear a family, teach and get her B.A. all at the same time. Some work, Dot. We admire you for it. «■ 46 CALLIE J.

Wellons who, that same year, had been elected president of the college. The officers of the club consist of a president and a secretary -treasurer. The pres- ident appoints a program committee, and this committee selects speakers from the fac- ulty who express a willingness to share their experiences and research topics with the group. The club meets the first Saturday of the month. Refreshments are served after the talk of the evening and a social hour follows. Enthusiasm for the club and its activities has grown with the years. 129 The purpose of the student council is to encourage and promote the development of personal honor, integrity, scholarly achievement, and a genuine sense of civic re- sponsibility in all those who matriculate at P.S.C. Past presidents have been Fred Lowry, Cleo Maynor, Barto Clark, Henry Smith, Thadis Oxendine, Elrie Locklear and Martin L. Lowry, Jr. The student council was organized in 1948.

Be a person, not a problem. Be a voice, not an echo. The wrong way up is down. ' You don ' t have bad memory; you have bad attention. The more 1 belong to Christ, the more I belong to myself. Every self-centered person is off- centered. Everybody obeys something; I shall obey Christ. My life is my own; the only thing I own. He who talks and runs away may live to talk another day. You won ' t have a hang over from being a Christian. Jesus will never let you down. If you go around with a chip onyour shoulder, it is probably from the block above. If you fall; stumble forward in His arms. The Christian belongs to Christ and then the world belongs to him. Turn your impediments into in- struments. Turn sorrow into song. We are just one breath away from death. It is not who you are but whose you are. There cannot be love without self- surrender. Every s elf -c entered person is automatically unhappy. Make life kick you forward. Get interested in someone beyond yourself, In Jesus everything is opportunity if you know how to use it. DR. R. D. WELLONS DR. E. STANLEY JONES REV. ROGER E. GARLAND 187 Religious Emphasis Week has become a tradition on the P.S.C. campus. We were particularly fortunate this year to have as our leader, Dr. E. Stanley Jones, world- wide evangelist. The Wellons 1 and Jones ' were associated in their work in India. The coming to us of Dr. Jon es was a result of the outgrowth of this friendship. We teel that this week was the highlight of this school year. •v 3C- tC : Si t -£ € JLz Ct £ « , f £t lu-. jt -£ 7 • «. r- %. ? - VX t- 1 - ft -t t ilj j£ £ au di f - a u ZL f+ C 189 My God and I My God and I go in the field together, We walk and talk as good friends should- - and do.
