The year I960 has brought many
changes to West Georgia College.
Perhaps the most prominent among
the material changes was the com-
pletion of a building program.
Through this program, several new
buildings were erected.

The modern Education Building
has proved an Invaluable asset to
both students and faculty.

The annex to Mandeville Dormi-
tory provided housing for 60 girls,
as well as a well-equipped clinic.

Other significant changes were
the extensive addition to the library
and the new maintenance warehouse.

These new buildings are proof of
the ever growing, ever changing
needs of any college, and particu-
larly West Georgia as it continues
to progress and take its place among
the top institutions of higher educa-
tion in the state.

One cannot think of West Georgia with-
out thinking of the stately old Administra-
tion Building with Its gleaming white col-
umns.

The Gunn hlouse, with Its picturesque sur-
roundings, Is an example of many of the
earlier structures still adding their usefulness
and beauty to the campus.

The library, now that it has been enlarged and refur-
bished, provides comfortable and adequate space, which
Is conducive to study and research.

One of the most outstanding events of the year,
especially for Freshmen, is their initiation during
Rat Week.

Many dances are held throughout the year; sig-
nificant among them this year were the Halloween
Ball and the Sweetheart Dance.

These activities give the students an opportunity
to enjoy themselves and to contribute to their so-
cial and cultural development.

Ask any Wesf Georgia student
where the nnost beautiful place In the
sprlngtlnne Is, and his ansv/er v/lll be
West Georgia. The cannpus of
West Georgia Is one of the nnost
attractive In the South.

Assembly progranns are a fanni
part of the student's life.

lar

Graduation is the ultlnnate goal of
the college student.

The student lounge at 10:00 a.m. is one of the
liveliest of places. Students converge for conver-
sations, snacks, cards, or perhaps a break from
studying.

In the classroom, the student seeks knowledge
through constant study and a desire to learn.

An infirmary visit may interrupt a day's activities.

Night time finds the students indulging in varied activities.
Some retire to their rooms for serious study, while others find
dancing in the student lounge a pleasant diversion.

Nathan, the night watchman, is a familiar part of West Geor-
gia, as he faithfully makes the rounds of the campus.

WHO'S WHO IN AMERICAN
COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES

Seven West Georgia Seniors were honored this
year by being named to WHO'S WHO AMONG
STUDENTS IN AMERICAN COLLEGES AND UNI-
VERSITIES. The students recognized by this organi-
zation each year are nominated from approximately
750 colleges and universities. Campus nominating
committees are instructed to consider in making their
selections, the student's scholarship; his participation
and leadership in academic and extra-curricular activ-
ities; his citizenship and service to the school; and his
promise of future usefulness.

The organization awards each member a certificate
of recognition, presented on the campus either at
graduation or earlier in the year. Also, it provides a
placement or reference service to assist members
seeking employment, scholarships, or fellowships.

A HARVEST OF fUN

Homecoming, 1959, was a big success despite the fact that for
the first time in years there was no football game. There was, how-
ever, an intramural soccer game featuring the Cherokees and the
All Stars. The contest ended in a tie and was later played off, giving
the All Stars the trophy.

Various other activities were carried out during the afternoon.
Some of the dormitories held open house, and Mandeville hHall was
the scene of a lovely afternoon tea.

hHighiighting the weekend were a dance and the crowning of the
Homecoming Queen, Miss Georgia Mozley, a Sophomore from Ma-
rietta. The Auburn Knights furnished the music for the traditional
dance.

Miss Dianne Eblen, a Sophomore from Atlanta, was chosen Maid
of Honor.

The Auditorium and the student lounge were decorated appro-
priately for the season with corn stalks, pumpkins, and cornucopias
carrying out the harvest theme.

RAT WEEK

One of the highlights of a freshman's year is his
initiation, usually known as Rat Week. The 1959-60
rats could be recognized by their long red string
tails attached to their clothes which were worn
wrong-side-out. The rat week program was com-
posed of three main days work day, talent day,
and a field day. There was a penalty for any rat
who failed to carry out his orders on work day.

At a special assembly program the rats demon-
strated their talents on a special radio broadcast
over station WGC. The highlight of the field day
was the choosing of Mr. and Miss Rat.

President Ingram crowns Dianne Eblen and Scotty Davis,
King and Queen of Hearts at the Valentine Dance held
February 13.

The Sweettieart Court was composed of: Ruth McAfee and Sam Maxey, Laura McBroom and Jerry Ingram, Sally Stephens and Emil Sut-
ton, Vi hlarn and Arthur Dee Moore, Diane Dixon and Jerry Studdard, and Emily Ivey and Bob Sanders.

SPEECH AND
DRAMATICS

Speech at West Georgia College gives each stu-
dent an opportunity to participate in a variety of
speech activities that enable him to gain poise and
confidence and become a more effective, well-
adjusted person, as well as a better speaker.

Through an introduction to theater, the student
learns the various aspects of planning, organizing,
and producing a play.

The theater production each quarter Is a highly
valuable and enjoyable experience for the cast, the
stage crew, and the audience. This year, under the
capable direction of Wallace Bulce, three outstand-
ing performances were successfully presented The
Hasty Heart, The Barretts of Wimpole Street, and
West Georgia's first musical comedy, Spring for
Sure.

The leading roles in The Hasty Heart were played by Linda
Adams, who portrayed a lone nurse in an army hospital dur-
ing World War I, and Donald Groover, who played the part
of Lachie, a Scotch patient in love with his nurse.

The entire cast and crew is shown in a scene from The Hasty Heart.

The Colonel (John Teet) looks on as Tommy (Wesley Blalock) tries to discover what the Scot (Donald Groover) wears under his kilt in a scene
from The Hasty Heart. Other members of the cast are from left to right, Eldrid Wood, Linda Adams, Ron Ransom, Richard Lumpkin,
W. hi. Smith, and Maurice Shaver.

THE BARRETTS OF
WIMPOLE STREET"

"The Barretts of Wimpole Street" was presented by
the West Georgia Players on March 3 and 4, I960.

Linda Adams starred In the famous role of Elizabeth
Barrett, who lived in constant fear of her domineering
father (Wallace Buice), until she courageously eloped
with Robert Browning, played by W.hl. Smith.

Other members of the cast include Bobbi Thomas,
Sandra McWhorter, Jimmy Todd, Don Reese, Sonny
Burt, Suellen Landrum, Eldrid Wood, and Peggy Fun-
derburk.

"The Barretts of Wimpole Street" is a true story of
two famous English poets, who lived in nineteenth cen-
tury England. It Is a captivating story of a world re-
nowned romance.

Bobbi Thomas pertly portrayed the part of hlenrietta Barrett,
a vivacious member of the Barrett family.

THE COLLEGE CHOIR

"The West Georgia College Music Department pre-
sents" . . ,

These are the words often heard in high school au-
ditoriums throughout the state of Georgia. The West
Georgia College Choir has planned tours on which it
visits high schools and churches. A small group called
the Concert Choir sings at various civic functions.
The programs on these tours include numbers by the
entire choir and special numbers by the soloists.

West Georgia College has the reputation of always
having an outstanding choir. The purpose of the choir
is to provide satisfying experiences for those persons
who are talented and are interested in music.

There are three main concerts given by the choir
each year. The presentation of hiandel's "Messiah"
is the highlight of the fall quarter. The Easter concert
of "The Seven Last Words" Is presented during the
last weeks of the winter quarter. In the spring the
choir presents its annual Spring Concert.

The choir plays a major part in college life and
functions, with the tours, special concerts, singing at
chapel and graduation.

This is a typical scene of the choir leaving for one of its many visits to high schools, churches and civic
meetings throughout the state.

Faye Wright and Earl McClure have won numerous
awards and recognitions for their vocal talents.

Under the superb direction of Professor hiugh G.
Deen, the college choir has achieved the reputation
of being a magnificent college choral group.

Chapel Choir members Include: A. Phillips, F. Wright, W. Griner, L. Bolch, M. Allen, L. Roberts, E.
King, L. Power, B. Garrett, S. Foster, G. Yates, M. FHarden, D. Cole, S. Burke, J. Scoggins, E. McClure,

THE "MESSIAH"

In December, the West Georgia College Music
Department presented a successful production of the
"Messiah," one of Handel's best known and most fa-
mous oratorios. More than two hundred voices joined
In this magnificent presentation. The members of the
chorus were from Bowdon, Bremen, Carrollton, Doug-
lasvllle, hHapeville, Villa Rica, and Newnan. Many other

cities and towns were represented by the members of
the college choir, and the local church choirs were also
well represented. The Columbus Chamber Orchestra,
under the direction of Mr. George Johnson, accom-
panied the choirs during the performance. Prominent
guest artists added the final finesse to the performance.

Two hundred voices joined to present the "Messiah" in conjunction with the West Georgia College Music Department.

ART DEPARTMENT

In the Art Education course students get a chance at
several forms of crafts. The ancient form of the potter's
wheel is a popular tool with the students. To stand still on
one foot while kicking the treadle with the other and trying
to mold the clay with your hands is a difficult feat. The
first attempts usually bring laughs from the observers as
well as the struggling student. Nevertheless some cred-
itable objects are turned out on the potter's wheel.

The class making paper sculpture enjoys watching the
mess of paper, wire, and paste emerge into a sturdy piece
of sculpture of characters from children's literature.

Students also weave some materials, possibly a mat or
table scarf of their own design. Cloth will never look the
same to these students as it did before they began meas-
uring string and yarn in the looms.

The Art Department has recently added three new
courses. Two of these are beginning design courses, that
include a variety of projects entitled Art Structure. The
first one is very much like the first Art Education course.
It is a course covering beginning design and rudimentary
principles of art. The second one is a continuation of this
with more emphasis on projects to give the student a
chance to use the theories learned in the beginning course.

The Art Appreciation course is planned to give students
a good start in understanding some art qualities that have
been important to artists for ages. There is a systematic
study of painting, drawing, and architecture as well as
some of the minor arts.

Art 332 students construct paper sculpture characters fror
"The Wizard of Oz."

Arthur Dee Moore is busily engaged turning out an object
on the potter's wheel in the Art Department.

Mr. Jobson and Mrs. Peggy hlughes look on as Mrs. Carleen
Littlefield works with the table loom.

STUDENT COUNCIL

The Student Council was established to
give the students a means of governing
themselves. To this end, the Council form-
ulates campus policies, acts as the mediator
between students and administration, and
coordinator of student activities.

The membership of the Student Council
consists of representatives of the dormito-
ries, representatives of the day students,
and all elected officers. It is the most rep-
resentative and perhaps most influential
organization on the campus.

The purposes of this organization are to
promote the physical comfort of the stu-
dents; to encourage their physical, intellec-
tual and moral growth; to furnish opportu-
nities for experiencing acceptable patterns
of group living; to give practice In good cit-
izenship based on democratic procedures;
and to promote friendship and good will.

Gus Adair holds the distinction of being the first Senior to serve as President
of the Student Council.

lege yearbook, was printed In 1934. Since then, it has
received first honor ratings several times by the Na-
tional Scholastic Press Association.

staff to produce an accurate account of the day-to-
day life and special events of the campus.

The Chieftain, however, does more than provide a
pictorial recording of the college's activities and prog-
ress. It offers students who are Interested in journalism

THE WEST GEORGIAN

The student newspaper, The West Georgian, is rated
among the best small college newspapers in the South.

It was first published in 1933, the initial year of ex-
istence of West Georgia College. On several occasions
it has received first class honor ratings by the Associ-
ated Collegiate Press.

Appointment of the editor is made by the Editorial
Board following personal interviews with the candidates.
Other staff members are chosen by tryouts which test
their creative writing abilities.

The paper is published three times each quarter, and
it is prepared entirely by the student members of the
staff they write it, edit it, proofread it, and lay it out,
working directly with the downtown firm which prints it.

Working with The West Georgian gives the students
a graphic glimpse of at least one phase of the world of
communications.

My Dear Editors:

Your invitation to address the student body through
your publication, The Chieftain, pleases me. As I have
grown older I have become more sentimental about
West Georgia College, its alumni, its students, and its
personnel. As you know this marks the close of a long
and happy career as the president of this institution.
Through the doors of this college have come hundreds
of young women and young men. In my judgment they
have benefited by the experience here. The institution,
through its staff, has sought to instruct and to inspire
them, not only in subject matter but in acquiring such
characteristics as simplicity, honesty, humility, com-
petency, curiosity, the search for truth, and a healthful
respect for the dignity of every individual. All of us
are human with the frailties of mankind and hence many
mistakes have been made and injustices have happened
but these mistakes were not premeditated or meant to
hurt.

As I see West Georgia College on the eve of my
departure, I hope that the institution will not mean all
things to all men. It seems to me It will be necessary
for this Institution to pursue only a few objectives to
which It Is dedicated. These have been a good educa-
tion which we call a general education; the prepara-
tion of teachers for the public school; and the develop-
ment of all students to take their places in society with
confidence and assurance. Those desiring special edu-

cation or graduate degrees should transfer to the
universities where they are more prepared to do these
services or training and education. Personally, I would
like to see the institution remain a small institution. In
that way we can maintain a friendly campus life and
promote desirable qualities of human concern which
seem to grow out of such a situation. I am conscious
of the fact that all of us like bigness now and the ten-
dency is that way. But sometimes bigness swallows the
Individual.

This letter perhaps is too long, h^owever, it simply
grows out of affectionate concern for all who come
here and a desire that many of the virtues of the in-
stitution will be carried on by my successors in the
years ahead.

You do not know that I came here as a young un-
married man who In off-hours slipped around as you do
to have my dates with one of the young teachers; I
married that teacher here; our only daughter was born
here and became a graduate of West Georgia Col-
lege; and my friends are here.

To the thousands of alumni I send my continued best
wishes and to you who are enrolled and others who are
graduating, my blessings and concern. I think I will like
this issue of The Chieftain. As the College improves.
The Chieftain, which reflects the activities of college
life. Improves also.

Cordially,
Irvine S. Ingram
