Boroughs to young people in all parts of Georgia, Mr. Boroughs' past twelve years have been well-spent at West Georgia College. He has served as an assistant professor of social sciences and English, performing a job that would require the abilities and talents of several people. Mr. Boroughs has served well, too, in those additional duties that bring him closer to the students he loves. He coaches the debate team and was faculty advisor to the Press Forum. A Bachelor of Arts degree from Mercer University, a Master of Arts degree from the University of Georgia, and additional graduate studies at the University of North Carolina qualify Mr. Boroughs to execute well any task placed before him, and that is just what he has done, from serving our country in time of war to instill- ing within all students who know and love him the desire to do their very best.

J':^ c%^- on arrival A new student or a veteran of last year arrives with the expectancy of learning and developing into a well- rounded individual. Each looks for happiness and the ability to adapt to college life. The first big job is unpacking things and fixing up the room where the student will spend a large part of his college life. Next comes the information desk to find out where to go and when. Finally comes the long registration line where the student finds out what courses he is to take. The first big job was to get unpacked. Then to the information desk for where to go. Came Monday morning, the lines began. The longest wait and then the money angle. Perhaps an illustration would make things clearer. the professor When a new school year begins, professors as well as students have to accustom themselves to the new surroundings in which they have entered. Like the typical faculty member, Dr. Hendricks has already endeared himself to the college and its activities. Students in his advanced algebra and physics classes are well acquainted with his immense capa- bility and willingness. Characteristic of a good pro- fessor. Dr. Hendricks keeps his lectures colorful, interesting and to the point. Part of a professor's duty is to prepare quizzes. ^yom. 20 A student often learns more by asking questions? the sl-udent Entering upon a life like nothing ever experienced before, the freshman arrives with eagerness, fear and anxious anticipation. Watching with silent and heartfelt amusement, the sophomores see the fresh- man wander around utterly lost and confused; rush- ing madly only to have to stand in line for hours. As we follow a typical freshman, Janice Gosdin, around, we see how she eagerly tries to act like a sophisticated college student when she really feels like giving up and going home; the nervousness she feels upon entering her first college class at the un- earthly hour of eight o'clock and the experience she has yet to face staying up all night studying for the exams for which she has not prepared. Concentration such as this will usually be rewarded with better grades and less study time outside of class. 21 The student lounge provides a place for students to relax, drink a coke, and check the mail. the 9:50 break And some continue to study There's hot coffee for cold winter days. 22 This is an example of West Georgia's evening classes, being offered for the first time this year. Dr. Martin can keep his economics class as interesting in the evening as he can at eight o'clock in the morning. and perhaps an evening class These are just a few of the one hundred fifty students who attend the interesting classes now offered at night. rat GT YEAR One of the highlights of the year in Carroll- ton, as well as on the campus, is the initiation of freshmen, better known as Rat Week. This initiation takes place in the fall quarter and is climaxed by the annual march to the square. The "rats", portraying comic-strip characters, are quite a colorful sight as they parade down Maple street led by a police escort, with sophomores serving as armed guards. The march ends at court which is composed of upper-classmen who represent the judge and jury. There is a penalty for any "lowly rat" who fails to carry out his work assignments or shows disrespect to the authority of his superiors. At the complete mercy of this court, the disobedient rats are tried in front of a crowd which gathers to watch the proceedings. A typical freshman rat. week A special assembly program featuring rats and upperclassmen was staged with a theme of "Russian Invasion by Sputnik" filled with "red rats" to get the week's activities underway. Upperclassmen supervisors were assigned to the rats along with work and dress assignments. The jobs included painting of parking signs on campus, brass polishing, window and desk cleaning, leaf raking, and other campus chores. One of the largest tasks undertaken was the reworking of the park- ing lot around Aycock Hall. Rat Week at West Georgia College, as well as being loaded with fun by all, is a beneficial activity and an event that will be remembered by all students. as he stands before his sophomore judge. And the death blow comes to the "lowliest" rat. 25 welcome A Brave fights his challenger. The Braves played with their usual spirit. Homecoming Queen and sponsor, Joe Shue.

He is aided by vesper services held in the Student Lounge as well as in the dormitory. During the fall quarter Religious Em- phasis Week, sponsored by the Voluntary Religious Association, was observed. The Reverend Forrest Lanier of Rome was the guest speaker during this period of instruc- tion and inspiration. A student's personal devotion plays a large part in his college life. Dr. Henry King Stanford addresses the student body at Convocation Services. rn n Round-table discussions were emphasized by the Rev. Lanier with the boys in Aycock Hall. The Rev.

A buffet supper opened the series of lessons and instruction. ^est georgia players George Moorman and Betty Nichols co-star as Hans and Ondine. Lighting was used to produce special effects. "Ondine" was one of the most elaborate productions of the West Georgia Players. It was the story of a water nymph falling in love with a knight in shining armor, Hans. All sets and costumes were designed and made by the drama department memibers. "Outward Bound", a suspense story of the souls of dead people travelling to their destiny, was presented winter quarter and was the second play of the season. Local talent, the choir and band combined to put on the final show of the year, "Carousel", which was the largest production ever to be undertaken by West Georgia College.

Elections are one of the most outstanding events at West Georgia, for each student has the privilege of running for a class office. Being a candidate gives a nominee a feeling of fair competition, experience in speech preparation and delivery, as well as an op- portunity to really get acquainted with his peer group. Few things are out-of-bounds in cam- paigning and unique posters bearing catchy slogans appear any and everywhere. The election is held and it's all over. The victors celebrate and the losers congratulate; the posters disappear and regulations appear. The student government swings into action. Election is over for another year.

The staff in working on this book has reached the decision that the old saying which follows is very true. If people only knew how many months of planning, weeks of drawing, hours of selling, days of picture taking, weeks of worrying, hours of talk- ing, cramps from writing, days of typing, hours of correcting, months of coaxing, days of straightening pictures, nights without sleep, days of longing, hours of heartache, and minutes of joy that it took to pro- duce this book, they would gladly accept it with its many flaws and be as proud of it as those who planned it.

Two of the mainstays of the golf Braves this year were Jack Slayton on the left and Russell Franklin on the right. The West Georgia golf team from left to right are Bill Gladney, Jack Slayton, Bobby Denman, Billy Joe Roberts, Terry Wynne, Russell Franklin, and Dr. Walker, faculty sponsor. ^k ' *^: '^^ KJr\ cr^ First row: R.

These eight lasses were always there lead- ing the roars on that touch- down drive or that crucial last minute basket. 83 un IT iffi; somen's intramurals West Georgia has one of the most highly developed and complete women's athletic programs in the South. A variety of sports are offered: basketball, tennis, badminton, archery, hikes, soccer, softball, golf, tumbling, and volley ball. This list also covers the major sports in the women's league. Four tribes, which make up the Wa- men's Athletic Association, compete intramurally for top honors, based on the point system. Each tribe is awarded points for winning as well as for participation; and each girl on the winning team is given extra points. Recognition is made to all girls who reach a number of points and pins or letters awarded to them for their outstanding sup- port of the physical education sys- tem. i - , r gjjI^PSt^wtg / "' / I r %^ ^1* I ^*:. Ji...; . * '%*^- ^ ^* ; ^^^^^^'^ ^% f.<^*; iL&Mi the president DR. IRVINE S. INGRAM To the students: It pleases me that you ask me to write for this historic pubhcation. Twenty-four years ago the first annual was published as a junior college edition. The editor was the present mayor of Carrollton, The Honorable Stewart Martin. He said in the foreword: As this, the first year of West Georgia College draws to a close, vivid recollections of past events are recounted. If, as future years come and go, this book causes one to relive his cherished experiences at W.G.C., our work has not been in vain. The edition was small as compared to this edition, but it was prophetic of the future. The pages were full of the pictures of frightened young people destined be- yond our fondest dreams to take their respective places in society and serve that society with credit to themselves and the institution. There were forty-nine graduates. This edition contains some of the fifty-seven four-year people who are expected to graduate at the spring and summer convocations of this institution. This is the first year in the life of the senior college. A quarter of a century hence its pages will tell a story. Master hands have labored to plan, organize, and pub- lish this edition. As your president I congratulate the able editor and his assistants. This issue is a monument to him and a compliment to all of you who cooperated. West Georgia College has great promise. As the first edition was prophetic of the future, this issue one day will reflect the vivid recollections of a once young, am- bitious, and worthy group who faced the future with confidence and courage. My best wishes to you. Irvine Sullivan Ingram 88 DR. WILLIAM H. ROW Dean of Administration Chairman of Division of Education and Vocations KATIE DOWNS Registrar J. E.

In some respects you might say that this book is my tomb- stone and this page is my epitaph. At times I've wondered if it's worth all the seemingly endless frustrations and upheavals; the all night sessions; and the wasted hours in combat with the faculty kibitzers. Needless to say, few will ever know or realize the amount of time, effort and energy expended on this book. Yet without a second thought, I say that every mo- ment was worthwhile. There are several reasons why I so quickly made up my mind. I have met and worked with some people whom I shall never forget. I owe a debt of gratitude to my professors who were so under- standing of my problems on numerous occasions for without their help this book would have been impossible. For the faculty sponsors who spent their week- ends and week days, too, pouring over plans and budget sheets, I have great respect. Their patience and encouragement were inexhaustible. To Mr. McWhorter who had constant patience with our financial troubles and greeted us each day with his cheerful personality, I extend my heartiest thanks. If our feature photographer had not been as kind and efficient in his assistance to us and not spent his nights and early mornings, too, working with me, printing pictures we had made all day, we would never have met our deadline. These many, many pictures and words can't possibly begin to serve as a true history or story of life at West Georgia College. We could only attempt in a small way, a kind of suggestion upon which you could build your own thoughts and memories. It is a great school with a great future with great people making it function. Not everyone could serve on the annual staff but those who did, I feel, did a remarkable job. Without their assistance and encouragement you would never be holding this book now. They are the real "editors" of this book. Polly Keith, Den- nis Connally, David Parkman, Pat Thornton, and Elaine Carnes are the ones who could often be found at a cluttered desk or table in the wee hours of the night. To them and their assistants, my hat is off. Words cannot express how deeply I appreciate the opportunity of "editing" this book. I hope that in some way it will mean as much to you as it does to me.
