IRVINE SULLIVAN INGRAM PROLOGUE jii f'^^ r*; i J !>i lill.lj V-i i-m i 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. 10 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. 12 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. 14 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. .mwfmm-msm'A ji 9Kr Wf ja^^*'^''WB(^ w "t * 1 w 1^ R k"^' \ \ ^ 1^ MISS CHIEFTAIN 1960 CECILIA UPTON Prefty-as-a-plcture, Miss Cecilia Upton was the unani- mous choice of the judges for the title of "Miss Chieftain of I960."

J^HHi^^Si^ 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.

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.

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. 36 mnvrsnss: ^ V ^ --/ BRENDA DOLLAR The May Court included Brenda Dollar, May Queen: DIanne Eblen, Maid of Honor; Diane Dixon, Vi Harn, Dottie Sullivan, Nona Wood, Linda Lee, Ennily Ivey, Teddi Rob- inson, Charlotte Mozley, Betty Arnall, Carole Hale, Cecilia Upton, Ann Mitchell, and Ruth McAfee.

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. 40 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 backstage crew is an integral part of any pro- duction. Pictured below are Emil Sutton, Arthur Dee Moore, Jerry Stud- dard, and David Bynum the stage crew for The Hasty Heart. 41 mmmmmmmmmm Lachie and Yank (Eldrid Wood) are pictured In a highly dramatic scene from the play. The Colonel (John Teet) has a serious talk with Lachie, concerning the Scot's future. Tommy (Wesley Blalock) and Kiwi, played by Maurice Shaver, battle with fly swatters during their stay at the army hospital in a lighter moment of The Hasty Heart. Henrietta Barrett, a younger sister of Elizabeth Barrett, is reprimanded by her father, Edward Moulton Barrett (Wallace Buice) from "The Barretts of Wimpole Street." w in a scene 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. 43 . mPr'- Members of the choir are: S. Burke, J. Scoggins, B. Berry, E. Causey, C. Hale, G.

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. 44 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.

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. !*> ^ R?W .

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. 47 ACTIVITIES \\*. > 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.

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.

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 President 94 ADMINISTRATION President I. S.

E. / ATLANTA 24, GEORGIA (ac^kA/>tea^ Editors Epitaph Emil Sutton! did you get those golf pictures made this morn- ing? What do you mean, half of the team didn't appear and you had to postpone it? These pictures don't fit these layouts! They'll have to be re- drawn. Did you really think that a 5x7 horizontal picture would fit into a 3'/2x5 vertical space, Jerrie? Butch, none of the 30 people in this club picture are named. Will you or Linda please get them listed within the next ten minutes? hias anyone seen Nat? He has to take a picture right this minute, and I can't locate him. The preceding conversations are familiar ones indeed. They are representative of many of the problems that were bravely met, handled, and conquered by the I960 Chieftain staff. The I960 Chieftain staff had Its trials and tribulations. There were many times when Sylvia and I both felt despondent about the whole thing. This was especially true at mid-term when I checked my grades . . . and when Sylvia discovered that she was behind In all of her classes. The week we went to press was a week of mass confusion and the only way we could do anything about it was to work our way out of It. Tommy Pike, Ruth, Sam, and Sylvia all can testify that many hours were spent in the stu- dent office, long after everyone else had retired from the day's activities. On these pages, another year in the history of West Georgia College is recorded. It is you the students, the faculty, and the administration who have made this year the success that It has been. Each of you has played your part, no matter how small, in the progress of West Georgia College. West Georgia has long since made a name for itself as a junior college; now it is taking Its first steps forward as a senior institution. Each year offers proof of its progress, this past year especially. There was a greatly increased enrollment, and to facilitate these additional students, more classroom and dormi- tory space was provided In the concrete form of a new Educa- tion Building and an ennex to Mandeville Dormitory. Also ap- 151 pearing on our campus this year for the first time was a new maintenance warehouse, a modern clinic, and a much improved library. Many changes and additions were made in the curriculum. They came about as an outgrowth of West Georgia's entry Into the four year classification. The school now offers degrees In Mathematics, English, Social Science, and Education. We (Sylvia and myself) are pleased that we had the oppor- tunity to edit your yearbook. Never would I be able to express what editing the 26th volume of The Chieftain has meant to us. We trust that the edition which you now hold In your hands meets your expectations. Because then we will know that none of the endless hours we have spent In its preparation will have been in vain. Your yearbook constitutes a resume of all of the scholastic, athletic, and social events that were Integral parts of your li*e on the campus of West Georgia, this year. To those on the staff, who worked so diligently In the prepa- ration of their Individual sections, I would like to express my gratification. Especially to Tommy Pike, Associate Editor, who was In charge of the second annual beauty review. Much thought and many hours of preparation were Involved In this production, as its success attested Joyce Pike bravely accepted the job of Business Manager. The task of selling advertisements is not always an easy one, but it is necessary as a means of helping to defray the expenses in- volved in the publishing of a yearbook. To those faculty members, especially our sponsors, who have given us their understanding sympathy and advice, we are grate- ful. It's all over now the worries, the frustrations, the seemingly endless hours of toll. We hope that \ou are pleased with the product which has been our privilege and pleasure to prepare for you.
