We take this opportunity to salute them for a task performed in an excellent manner. Savannah State College had much to be proud of in 1967-68. Substantial progress was made in many areas of endeavor. Hardly a week passed without signaling some new achievement or some new accomplishment by members of the faculty, staff, and student body. We can truly say that Savannah State College has indelibly stamped its name on the roll of great Institutions of higher education, More important, however, is the wonderful spirit of enthusiasm manifested by our wonderful student body, faculty, staff, and alumni. This spirit of enthusi- asm and determination will certainly carry us to higher educational heights. We congratulate the Class of 1968 and we wish them God's finest blessings as they leave us to go to their various endeavors. loward Presides Administration THE PLANNERS OF STATE'S PROGRESS ' "i ; .

The technique for realizing this aim is that of seri- ous study of the human heritage as it has been recorded in literature, music, art, and philosophy. In this manner the student deepens his apprecia- tion, sharpens his intellect, enhances his critical powers, and incorporates himself in the main- stream of the best that has been thought and felt.

The present facilities provide space for classes, organizational rehearsals, practice periods, listening room and offices. Pianos are provided for practice, and band instruments are pro- vided. The musical organizations are each directed by a full-time faculty member and provide ample opportunity for students to receive ex- periences in public performance which range from programs on the campus at assemblies, church services, vespers, and concert tours in several states.

If one has the desire, then he can progress at State. The Department is located in new quarters, es- pecially designed and equipped with modern studios and lecture rooms being brought up-to-date, making it possible to teach the latest use of books and methods in lithography etching, sengraphy. ceramic, sculpture and painting. Students who have studied art at State have reaped many rewards. Some have won large sums of money in art competition. Some are enjoying the success of exhibiting their art at qualified galleries. Others have successful careers as teachers of art. Art students at State occasionally have opportuni- ties of getting first-hand experience, as a number of art jobs of short duration come into the Art Depart- ment. Phillip J Hampton Mrs. Farnese H Lumpkin 3 ms j mm UC Miss Christine Oliver Mrs. Susan B. Waters Department of Modern Languages INSTRUCTIONS ARE OFFERED IN THREE LANGUAGES: FRENCH, GERMAN AND SPANISH THE DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAGES of- fers instruction in French, German and Spanish. The primary aim of the members of the Depart- ment is to teach the student to understand, speak, read and write these languages so that he may communicate with others who speak them. This instruction is carried on in daily recitations in the classroom and also in a modern twenty booth laboratory where the student can increase his proficiency by listening to and repeating exer- cises of various types especially prepared for this purpose. Outside the field of education, a person with a ma- jor in a foreign language can find employment in several areas. First, there is the area of organiza- tions more or less international in character. Be- cause of the nature of its work, there is almost a constant demand at the United Nations Headquar- ters for men and women who are proficient in foreign languages. DR. HOWARD JASON. Department Head DR. EUSEBIO VALLE 42 THE STORY OF MAN: THE DIVISION OF SOCIAL SCIENCES To gain a wide range of knowledge of men who have shaped and are shaping their countries is one aim of students in the DIVISION OF SOCIAL SCIENCES. Students also examine the various so- cial problems which have beset man since his existence on earth. To gain an insight on how well man has adjusted and is adjusting to his environ- ment, students pursue courses in sociology. To assist students in realizing these aims, THE DIVISION OF SOCIAL SCIENCES offers two major programs for persons interested in the social sciences. Curriculum I is designed for persons interested in careers in: law, government, diplomatic service, general research, and Urban League Work. DR ELMER J DEAN.

The Department has been quite successful in obtaining funds from Chemical Societies and the National Science Foundation to sponsor sev- eral significant programs. Many research projects are carried out by stu- dents in cooperation with the department's active research program. The Department feels that re- search projects serve as good preparation for more highly developed and specialized research that the students will encounter in graduate school. The research program serves as an out- let of expression of the student's scientific inter- est and capabilities other than in the classroom and gives him experience in employing the scien- tific methods in problem solving.

And a large part of this change has been geared toward better faculty-student relations. Occasionally the SGA is invited to President Jordan's home to discuss problems and future development and expansion at State. At the first President-SGA meeting, President Jordan previewed State's 10-year campus development plan. SGA members were delighted over renova- tions and expansions which are to take place at State. President Jordan, no doubt, reminded SGA members that as students, they too will be affected by the development plan. The proposed student union, for instance, will include new facilities for the student newspaper, yearbook and the SGA. The completely air-conditioned structure will also include meeting rooms for fraternities and sororities. At the first meeting: the food was delicious. The President's guest: they were delighted. The 10-year plan: "Change affects all of us." 86 Refreshments: the first lady served The final session: this ended the beginning.

A series of lectures are presented through the Li- brary Lecture Series to aid in this academic process. These lectures are important in the quest for broad educational horizons. They also serve as a valuable stimulant to the student. The Library Lecture on "The Meaning of Poverty" by Dr. Oscar Handlin, (extreme right), stimulated many students to question the ideas of the noted historian. Dr. Handlin (center) contemplates a question asked him by a student. W W. Law's assembly address captivated the audience.

The "Talk-in" SSC STUDENTS JOIN THE BANDWAGON One advantage of living in a democratic society is to have the freedom of expression. In the spring of 1967, SSC stu- dents exercised this freedom more than ever before. As a rising tide of discontent swept across many of the nation's colleges. SSC students found themselves joining the bandwagon. Unlike many colleges, however, SSC stu- dents manged to reason with the administration in order to prevent serious misunderstanding. The "talk-m", as it was called, was an invitation to both students and faculty members to attend a mass meeting to hear grievances of the former. Students directed provocative questions to the moderator. He, in turn, directed the questions to the proper authorities. Radicals, too. were present. This group urged the student body to sign a petition and to form a mass demonstration in front of Meldrim Hall, the administration building. Amongthe young radicals were what someone called "academic bums." It was felt that the "academic bums" were characterized by Utopian ideas. They attempted to persuade the students to accept their ideology. But the majority of students failed to yield to their philosophy. Two "talk-ms" and a week later the grievances of the students were met. The next day saw the students and the administration working in cahoots again. SGA President tells the student body that their rec- commendations have been approved President Jordan answers complaints Graves voices his opinion A student verbalizes I 19 WITHIN A CITY.

Over the last sixty years Alpha has been striving to maintain and uplift their aims of manly deeds and love for all mankind. It was more than sixty years ago at Cornell University that one of the most important meetings in Negro History was taking place. Seven valiant Negro students, drawn together by their mutal feeling for the need of an organization which would bind Negro students to- gether, organized Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the first Negro Greek-Letter organization. The park shown m the picture was built by the chapter and dedicated to the two deceased charter brothers, Toland J. Collier and Elijah J.

On January 16.1908, a young woman named Ethel Hedgeman envisioned an idea that has now become the pride of many young college women. Ethel Hedgeman, a junior at Howard University, loved her people and wanted to do something to raise their standards. In her room in Minor Hall. Ethel Hedgeman. Lucy Slowe, Beulah Burke, Margaret Hagg. Marjone Hill, Mane Woolford. Anna Brown, and Lavinia Norman met to draw up plans for the organization. Lucy Stowe was elected basileus.

In the midst of the affair, music is temporarily discontinued and the atmosphere becomes very tensed. Girls become excited. Contestants running for the coveted title, "Miss Mardi Gras", are brought to the stage, and the winner is announced. This year Wanda Shelley was crowned "Miss Mardi Gras". Aside from social activities, Omega placed two additional members in honor societies. Fleming Golden was inducted into Beta Kappa Chi and Harvey Jones became affiliated with Alpha Kappa Mu. In 1911, three young men, Edgar A. Love. Oscar J. Cooper and Frank Coleman, conceived the idea of founding a Negro national fraternity. The young men discussed the matter and concluded that they should have some guidance. They contacted Professor Ernest E. Just and he consented, having a keen appreciation for the problems of youth. On November 17, 1911. at Howard University, the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity was born. From that one undergraduate chapter at Howard, the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity now has a roster of more than 270 chapters. From a membership of three in 1911.

PORTS TIGERS END SPARKLING YEAR The Savannah State College Tigers closed out is best season since the early 1950's and topped it oft by going 3 in conference play to capture the Southeastern Athletic Con- ference Championship. The Tigers defeated conference rivals Edward Waters 136. Albany State 148 and won their first game on the road by slip- ping by Morris College 2014. to clinch the title. In pre-season picks it was thought SSC would possibly go undefeated with the experienced players on the squad including four all- conference players in tackle Bobby Carter, linebacker Henry Betts. halfback Carlos West- more and defensive halfback Vaughn Ford. But after making a 15 6 debut against Livingstone College, the Tigers traveled to Alabama two consecutive weeks and suffered two consecutive beatings. Defending SEAC champions Alabama A&M stopped SSC 230 followed by Alabama State 228. A three-game home stand saw the Tigers sweep three big games from Lane, 20 6, Edward Waters, 138, and Clark College, 16 7, raising the record to 42 overall and 1 in conference play. After an open week the Tigers traveled to Fort Valley for the Wildcats homecoming, only to have their winning streak cut, set- tling for a debatable 6 6 tie. With only two games left, SSC returned home to defeat conference rival Albany State 14 7, for homecoming and moved a notch closer to the crown, with only Morris left. SSC's stingy defense, going into that game was following only 10.5 points per game with the secondary picking off 20 stray aerials. Offensively, rookie flanker David Truell captured SSC's title, edging out fullback Frank Bell by two points. Truell scored five touchdowns and a two- point conversion and Bell had five tallies. Despite going through most of the season with key injuries including Bell, Carter, McDowell, Adams and Handy, who missed the last two games the Tigers managed to come from a once 2 1 rec- ord to a 621 slate and captured the much honored SEAC crown for the first time in a decade. 132 - FRONT ROW: Johnny Abrams, Willie Mathews.

Betts, a 5-10, 170 pound stature is a native of Pascagoula. Mississippi. He joined the Tigers last season as a center and linebacker but proved to more effective at the latter and has been in the linebacker slot thus far, being named all-conference his two years on the squad. In addition to his defensive chores, Betts handles most of the place kicking, booting 1 1-14 extra points, but failed to connect on a few long range field goal attempts. Defensive Coach Richard Washington stated. "Betts is one of our finest players; he has an outstanding personality. He is always ready when called upon and is always trying to do a good job." When asked how he felt about being named recipient of the annual award, Betts com- mented, "It's a real honor and I'm grateful to our entire coaching staff and my fellow players for making it possible."

TRUELL GET TIGER TOUCHDOWNS Victory-hungry Savannah State satisfied its appetite in Grayson Stadium by picking up its first conference win of the season after dropping two straight games on the road with a narrow 13 8 victory over Edward Waters College of Jacksonville. The game brought SSC's record to 2 2 for the season and 1 in conference play and put Waters also with a 22 over-all slate and 1 in conference play. Neither team managed to start a substained offensive drive in the first period but SSC didn't waste any time in the second stanza as quarterback Felix Bell found flanker David Truell open in the end zone and sailed a five-yard pass good for six points. Henry Betts booted the extra point. SSC's hard hitting line caused several fumbles throughout the game but failed to score on numerous occasions. Defensive end Willie West jarred toe 'skin away on the losers' 31 yard line and linebacker Fred Sipp landed on the ball, giving the Tigers good field position. Waters managed to contain the Tigers, forcing them to try a field goal which failed with :29 seconds left in the half. Fullback Frank Bell, lending a big hand defensively, intercepted a Waters' pass on the losers' 40 yard line and returned it 20 yards to the 15. Tailback Isreal Randall, who racked up 49 yards rush- ing and caught several passes, razzled-dazzled to the end zone from there, giving SSC a 13 margin. From that point on Waters came to life and Fullback Roundtree capped a drive that covered 42 yards with a one-yard plunge, cutting the score to 13 8. The scoreboard tells the story.

It was sweet, Saturday afternoon about 4:30 p.m. when the Tigers won over the highly-regarded Clark College Panthers, 16 6. It was an upset, but the Tigers won the hard way in the fourth period. Willie West tagged Clark College's Eugene Rhodes for a safety to ignite a Tiger Rally. After battling to a half time deadlock, the Panthers came to life in the third period. Clark was faced with a fourth down and two yards to go for the first down on their own 29 yard line. Quarterback Dwight Ellison gave the skin to Rhodes and the speedster raced 71 yards to pay dirt. The conversion attempt failed. Both teams had several scoring opportunities but the strong defenses stiffened on each series of plays. SSC tried two field goals but both failed. Clark had a drive killed when SSC defensive back Fred Sipp intercepted a pass. The Tigers unable to get their offensive clicking until the latter part of the closely fought battle managed only 83 yards rushing but picked up a 133 passing including 70 yard pass from Freddie Mosley to flanker David Truell in the final period. The Tiger last tally came with less than two minutes left in the game when full back Frank Bell scored from the 10-yard line.

In the opening minutes of the second period. SSC advanced to the Rams' one-yard line, but the visitors' strong defensive line proved too much for the Tigers. Ram quarterback Robert King ran the ball on the first play moving it to the 17-yard line. Arthur Bell rambles 75 yards to pay dirt for the losers' only touchdown. SSC's linebacker Henry Betts picked off a Ram aerial and raced 66 yards before being hauled down from the rear, giving the Tigers a first at the Ram's 19, but once again the visitors' rugged defensive unit clicked and SSC lost the ball on downs on the 30-yard line. With 1:02 left in the first half, reserve quarterback Henry Bell sent flanker David Truell on a long pass pattern, and an interference call on the Ram's 11 yard line put the Tigers in scoring position. On a halfback option play Felix Bell hit Truell with a pass covering five yards, good for the touchdown. Betts converted and the score was seven-all. SSC marched 71 yards in 11 plays for their last score with Mosley passing to Truell for 25 yards and to end Willie Matthews for 13 en route. Felix Bell /^/i j& jA * plunged over from the one. Lawrence Oliver ran the PAT to put SSC ahead to stay, 1 57.

During the march, Williams connected on four of six passing attempts and picked up three first downs. SffifS The Tigers were well supported Run Frank! A few more yards means a first down. SSC STOPS LANE, 206 Savannah State's Tigers staged a fourth period rally, scoring two touchdowns after inter- ceptions, to come from behind and win their third game of the season with a 20 6 romp over Lane College. Fired up Lane, out for revenge from last year's 52 13 beating handed it by SSC, scored in the first five minutes of the first period with freshman halfback Willington Jenkins racing 53 yards on the visitor's third play of the game. The Tigers crossed the mid-field stripe several times in the first half but failed to get on the scoreboard as Lane's linebacker Charlie Jones picked off a Tiger aerial to kill a drive that reached the Dragon's 37 yard line. Defensive halfback Vaughn Ford picked off a Lane pass on the visitor's 18-yard line and moved to the losers seven but again failed to score and Lane took over on downs. The half ended with Lane's lone score posted. SSC's stiff defense manged to hold the Dragons, forcing them to punt. Halfback Isreal Randall returned the kick 43 yards, to Lane's 13 and with the aid of two penalities, SSC was at the h>%A one-yard line. There halfback Frank Bell bulldozed his way in for the six-pointer. Henry Betts booted the PAT giving the home team a 7 6 lead. The Tigers really came to life in the fourth period with first year quarterback Freddie Mosley directing the attack. Mosley ran three plays on the ground, advancing to the 22. Mosley then hit Willie Matthews with a toss good for six points. Once again Betts kicked the extra points. Defensive back Lawerence Oliver later galloped 55 yards to pay dirt for the winners' last tally. Earl Brown Randall makes the touch down.

THE STUDENTS COME TO STATE SEEKING AN EDUCATION AND THEY PUR- SUE LEARNING WITH VIGOR AND ZEST. FOR A STUDENT, THOUGH. STATE IS MORE THAN BOOKS AND COURSES AND CREDIT AND, IN THE END, A B.S. DEGREE. STATE IS ALSO AN ACTOR IN THE PLAY, A SOPRANO IN THE CHOIR, EDITOR OF THE NEWSPAPER OR THE YEARBOOK. STATE IS A STUDENT ART SHOW. A CONCERT BY DON SHIRLEY. STATE IS A DATE FOR THE CHRISTMAS BALL. STUDENTS ENJOY LIFE AT STATE. IT IS A FRIENDLY CAMPUS WHERE EACH INDIVID- UAL IS RESPECTED AND WHERE A COLLEGE BODY STUDY. WORK AND PLAY TOGETHER. 2J TU DENTS Gee!

The great battle They would rather fight than switch It was a normal night, except tor the "fanatics" who kept hollering, "it's going to snow tonight!" Who ever heard of a "big snow" in Savannah anyway? Nobody really worried and nobody really cared. Most students put in the usual evening of study and went to bed at the usual time. Four a.m. saw a room mate ask, "hey room, what's all that white stuff?" By 5 a.m., almost everyone, dressed in their sleepers, was walking up and down the corridor. "This must be a bajama party," somebody joked. At the other end of the hall, a phone was being used. "Calling your girl kind of early, heh, man?" "No. calling the lady at the local draft board, was suppose to be inducted today. Unfortunately, it snowed," he answered ironically. Out went the lights! "The lights! Who turned out the damn lights!" "Don't worry, man, I have some candles in my room." Then the hall lit up with candles like a group of choir members singing Christmas carols in candle light. Finally, day broke, cold and dull, exceedingly cold and dull. Before long, though, things spiced up. Students turned out for snow battles. The top of Wright Hall was like a fort as students fired snow balls at cars, faculty members and other students who dared to pass by. By 3 p.m., the "big snow" was nearly a thing of the past as sunshine melted most of the snow. And the next day was a normal day of class. Nevertheless, the "big snow" was a memorable day. It was almost unreal. The "fanatics" slept through it all. !67 Buried alive Seniors William Alderman Alfred Allen Marie Allen Etrenda Anderson FINAL YEAR FILLED WITH Geraldine Austin r t~ Frances Bazemore Seniors Anie Simmone Bell Halloray Benjamin Dons Bennett Charles Boney VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES Christola Bordens Raymond Bostwick 169 Carol Brennan Constance Brennan Seniors Cora Brown Dorothy Benetta Brown Kenneth Brown Rosie L Brown MANY SENIORS PLAN FURTHER STUDY Shirley Brown 170 Margie Bryant Paulette Butler Seniors / y \ Helen Capers Bobby Carlyle Leroy Carson George Cobham IN DIFFERENT FIELDS Laura D.

Many a late evening. I would sit and envy those who had leisuretime while I labored at editing a yearbook. During that time I was tempted to escape into the world of many of my peers who seemed, at that ime. to have it made. But I found that life is not having it made. It's getting it made. And with the completion of each page, something within me was strengthened. That something gave me the patience and fortitude to run until I reached the finish line. And that I did. ROBERT L JOINER. II. Editor-i n-Chief This is not to say that the credit for producing this yearbook is due to one person. If I had worked alone, this task would still be incomplete. Margaret Dukes, my associate, deserves to be thanked. So does Cynthia Doach. Lavon Love, Mary Milam, Raymond Hightower, and Dorothy Brown. It is through the efforts of these people that the yearbook is now in your hands. Thanks, too. to those who stopped by the office to smoke all of my cigarettes and to drink all of my coffee. I trust that our efforts will inspire you to have patience and forti- tude in whatever task you undertake. Again, the going was sometimes rough and everything seemed more glamorous than producing a yearbook. But the final rewards have been far greater than the rewards re- ceived from the completion of any task undertaken by me. It was a helluva job or so it seemed. Robert L.
