EDITION Vol. 45 Published by National Oglethorpe Alumni Association. October. 1962 No. THE SHAPE OF THE FUTURE Definite phases and steps in the Oglethorpe University development pro- gram have been completed and the artist's rendering shows how the campus is to look several years hence. We should all be encouraged at the con- tinued evidence of progress. Monies received and "on the way" will make it possible for us to think about the time when we will actually break ground. However, Dr. Agnew feels, and correctly so, that we must get the endowment picture strengthened as a necessary first step toward the realization of our goals.

Graduate Of 1925 Awarded Diploma In 1962 Dr. Agnew with M. V. Braddy Class of '25 A diploma was awarded 37 years late to Mr. M. V. Braddy, a graduate of the class of 1925. The event took place at the summer commencement exercises held at the University on Friday, August 17. Dr. Donald C. Agnew, President, presented the diploma to Mr. Braddy explaining to the audience that rules governing the awarding of diplomas in 1925 required that a graduate must have been present to receive the certi- ficate. As Mr. Braddy had been of- fered a teaching position in another city, he had to leave the campus before he was to participate in the graduation exercises. In August, 37 years later and hav- ing retired from active business, Mr. Braddy received his diploma as Bache- lor of Arts in Education Date: May 21, 1925. The Flying Petrel -STiumni rJurivc K^/j-j-ers i^halleneie With the unprecedented response of nearly 829,000.00 and 97 1 donors to the Forward Oglethorpe Fund drive of last year, the 1962-63 campaign lias a real challenge ahead. The goal is S40.000.00 and 1100 donors. With the growth of the alumni the 1 100 donors represents nearly one third of all known alumni. This year, there has been added a new category to which alumni may contribute Endowment. In addition to the library and Women's Residence Hall, this new category will represent another permanent project for the Alumni to help build for Oglethorpe. With the help of interested alumni for Oglethorpe, we can make this year one of the biggest and best that the school has ever had. We can show that the alumni are interested in the growth and development of a great institution. We can show that Oglethorpe alumni are strong in spirit and support of their school. Mr. Cohen Authors Book Of Poems Mr. William Cohen, Assistant Pro- fessor in English and Human Under- standing at Oglethorpe University, has had a book of poems published by the Southern Illinois Inc., located in Cartersville, 111. The book is entitled "A House in the Country-Poems From Southern Illinois." The jacket of the book contains a statement by Peter Viereck in which he calls Mr. Cohen "a poet of life and ever renewing himself." Mr. Cohen, whose poems and Rilke trans- lations have been praised at the Li- brary of Congress by Peter Viereck, is completing his Ph.D. courses at Emory University in Atlanta. In addition, the library at Ogle- thorpe University will display the original manuscript along with letters of comment from leading modern American writers. OGLETHORPE TO HAVE ART FESTIVAL Plans are underway now to hold the first Art Festival at Oglethorpe University. Areas to be included will be theatrical performances, mu- sic, an art show, poetry and dance. It is hoped that lectures, readings and performances can be obtained by outstanding persons in the area. The Festival is tentatively slated to begin the last week of February and run into the first week of March, 1963. The next issue of the FLYING PETREL will contain more defin- ate and detailed information. University Marker Is Gift of Class of 1962 Inspired by President Jack Warren's determination to open Oglethorpe's striking campus to view from Peach- tree Road, the class of 1962 recently dedicated its unique gift to the Uni- versity. The handsome granite and marble entrance marker, pictured be- low, replaces an unsightly transit shelter and a tangled and overgrown clump of shrubs. Class members moved the transit shelter to an unobtrusive location and. incidently, improved its appearance; cleared away the shrubbery, graded and curbed the area. Class member Bob Olsen was a leader in accomplish- ing the physical work involved. The marker, with its gold lettering in polished marble surrounded by a granite frame will stand through the years not only as an asset to the Uni- versity, but also as an enduring re- minder of the thoughtfulness and originality of the Class of 1962. BOOSTER HOMECOMING GAME DECEMBER 8, 1962 OGLETHORPE VS. CARSON-NEWMAN FIELD HOUSE 8:00 P. M. July, 1962 Page 3 Reminiscing With The Wendell Browns We remember the first year of our life at Oglethorpe the pathetically small class of twelve entering fresh- men. We remember one freshman trailing across the campus (we were then still in the country) with a gun under his arm, his coon hound Cinna- mon at his heel, the two followed by what looked to be a faithful colored retainer to bring in the game. This squire of the Old South lent a great deal of color to the campus even though he turned out to be only six- teen years old and the faithful retainer only Fletcher, the janitor, who, as usual, was dodging real work. But the spirit was genuine enough, and in the years this freshman was with us, he led the campus in memorial cele- brations of Robert E. Lee on the gen- eral's birthday and master minded the battles against the Yankees (we had and have many) determined to keep the stars and bars off the flag staff. As time went on, he became active in school affairs as diverse as design- ing the crowns (still in use) for the Lord and Lady of the Oglethorpe Ball and helping to start a rival newspaper to the Stormy Petrel called the Men's Free Press in order to show the ortho- dox sheet what a paper should really be like. He was invited into Boar's Head, and in his junior year, 1947, was elected president of the student body and chosen for Who's Who in Ameri- can Colleges. In spite of his age, he tried for and made professional option. That is, he entered professional school after his junior year at Oglethorpe and did his first year of law and last year of col- lege at the same time, a feat only accomplished by a superior mind and strong determination. Even at this time he was certain of the way he would order his life. He would earn a law degree, practice for experience, and go into politics. This he did. And now, after a hard race, Charles Longstreet Weltner, '48, stands ready as Democratic nominee to Congress for the Fifth District to battle his Re- publican opponent in the general election. P. S. Just to keep it somewhat in the family, that opponent, Jim O'Callahan, is the brother of Mrs. Ben Lorenz (Catherine 'Cuz' O'Callahan. '48). What Are We Waiting For? Some of you may be asking at this point, "What are we waiting for?" Well, the fact is, we're not waiting! More gifts are being received some challenge, some with strings. Definite plans for what's first and what's next are taking shape. A fine artist's drawing of the proposed cam- pus has just been completed, and you will be seeing more of this. Sometime within the next few weeks you will receive a letter outlining plans whereby you can make contributions to the University and yet retain the equity of your gift in your estate plus receiving substantial tax advantages. Many are saying there is a wonder- ful new spirit of progress at Ogle- thorpe, both on and off campus. Our "image" is emerging in a constructive and truly positive light. Heads are turning at what we're doing at Ogle- thorpe. And this is only the beginning. Dreams are nearer reality than they have ever been. And we will keep you informed, for you will have a big part in the total development picture. 2*VW> Jkvntljs Mrs. C. J. McElheny (Anne Dye), '31. Mrs. McElheny received her bachelor's and masters degrees at Ogle- thorpe. She was a retired school teacher. Mrs. William O. Pierce (Madye Forrester), '28 died recently in At- lanta. She had taught biology at Ogle- thorpe for several years after her graduation. Dr. Frank McCormick '25, Dr. Mc- Cormick had made his home at 4815 Highpoint Road, N. E., in Atlanta and had been engaged in the practice of dentistry. C. Ort Jenkins, '27 died at his home August 25, 1962. Mr. Jenkins was a retired executive of Sears, Roebuck and Co. at the time of his death. He has been with the firm for 36 years. Faculty Member Donates Subscription In Memory Of O'Donald A subscription to the VIRGINIA REVIEW QUARTERLY has been given to the Library at Oglethorpe by a faculty member who wishes to re- main anonymous. The publication is in memory of George Marion O'Donnell, former English professor who died recently. Dr. Abbott's Essay To Be Published By Fulbright Commission During 1962 the Fulbright Com- mission plans to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Fulbright Program in Germany by the publicaiton of a volume of essays written by certain elected contributors who have served as Fulbright lecturers in Germany dur- ing the last ten years. Dr. Martin Abbott of the Ogle- thorpe faculty was asked to contribute. Dr. Abbott spent the year 1960-61 at the University of Mainz in Gerner- sheim, Germany. The title of Dr. Abbott's essay is: "Ferment of American Freedom: So- cial Reform and Reformers, 1820- 1860." In this he has undertaken to show how and why the tradition of social reform developed so early in America, and to treat some of the more and significant of these: the tem- perance movement; women's suffrage; better care of the insane; the various Utopian communities that were estab- lished; and of course, the drive to rid the nation of the blot of Negro Slavery. The volume is scheduled for publi- cation sometime this Fall. Page 4 The Flying Petrel Notes From The Athletic Department The intramural program is off and running again at school, destined to be the most successful in the history of Oglethorpe University. Spearheaded by Coach Billy Carter, this program has attracted the enthusi- asm of a majority of the students, offering each student some sort of sporting competition in which he or she can compete. With the beginning of the new year, the intramural touch football league started. Other activities planned in- clude volleyball, basketball, softball, tennis and ping-pong and badminton tournaments. "We think the success of the pro- gram last year," Coach Carter said, "has created a warm climate for an even larger program this year. And we further feel this interest will be shown in the larger participation by the students." It's also time for the soccer team to get underway. Again Coach Carter is the bossman of the operation. Ogle- thorpe plans to play six matches this season, with one trip being considered. The schedule will be more ambi- tious than last year, the first season for this new sport. "We expect to have an excellent nucleus with our returning players," Coach Carter said, "and then add sev- eral new players from our freshman class. We hope to make soccer a major sport on the campus. We have games with Emory, Berry, Emory at Oxford, Maryville Tennessee, and plan to schedule one trip to Florida to com- plete our schedule. The matches with the two Emorys and Berry are sched- uled on a home-and-home basis. Last season, a get-acquainted year for soc- cer at Oglethorpe, we played three matches and they were well received by our students. We anticipate a large increase in that interest." Coach Garland Pinholster has signed for 21 basketball games with the hopes of adding two more before the start of the season. The Petrels will defend their Christmas tournament title against three strong opponents Georgetown, Newberry, and Valdosta State. Both Georgetown and Newberry were ranked high among the small colleges in 1961-62. Valdosta State won the GIAC championship, capi- talizing, we might add, on the Ogle- thorpe Wheel offense, the invention of Coach Pinholster. July, 1962 The Petrels will also travel North, playing St. Peters in New Jersey and possibly one more team in that area. Other clubs scheduled include Carson-Newman, Georgia Southern. Murray State, Belmont Abbey, Cen- tenary, and New Hampshire. The New Hampshire battle will undoubted- ly be the highlight of the home slate. Freshmen signed by Oglethorpe are Ronnie and Donnie Owens, twins from Kentucky; Pasco Tilson, Jr., of Forest Park, Georgia; Walker Heard, of At- lanta; and Bill Garrigan, an Air Force veteran from Pennsylvania. "Our main question mark is at guard," Coach Pinholster said. "We have two big guards returning from last year, senior Darrell Whitford and sophomore Ray Thomas. But we have no third guard in sight. If we are plagued by illness or injury at this position we could be hurting. Our top five boys are potentially as strong as the top five last season. Of course, we will have to sacrifice whatever in- tangible qualities Tommy Norwood supplied our team. "We hope Garrigan will develop fast enough to give us a No. 3 guard, or possibly challenge Whitford and Thomas for a job. Garrigan is 22 years old. We also hope Billy Parker will develop into a No. 3 forward and that Heard will come along to be our No. 2 pivot. Our fall practice will be dedi- cated to the development of these three boys and others who must im- prove so that we may have adequate bench strength to play a schedule that is probably our toughest of the last seven years. We have to play Murray State, Centenary, Belmont Abbey, St. Peters, and others like these on the road." The Booster Club has started its financial drive for this year and Presi- dent Steve Schmidt feels confident of reaching the goal. "I think we have the finest group of Boosters we have ever had," Presi- dent Schmidt said. "And I think we have a group of officers and directors who will dedicate themselves toward the fulfillment of our goal and will do whatever work is necessary to reach this target. Furman Bisher Authors Book Fur/man Bishop, who has featured our Stormy Petrel basketballers several times in his popular Atlanta Journal sports column, has written his first book, entitled "With A Southern Exposure." The book, with an introduction by Bing Crosby, is a collection of the many humorous, dramatic and heart- warming columns written by the eru- dite Bisher. The book is published by Thomas Nelson & Sons. Mr. & Mrs. William B. Christian, Jr., '59/62 announce the birth of a daughter, Jacquelyn Ann last Feb. 20.
