VOCATIONAL EDUCATION FOR
NATIONAL DEFENSE
^
The Vocational Education for National Defense pro-
gram at West Georgia College is doing a vital job
for the war effort. All the property and equipment
owned by the former N. Y. A. project has been
leased from the government, and the Georgia State
Department of Education is now providing funds
through their V. E. N. D. program for operating the
war production training program here.
For its contribution to war effort, the college program is now producing bomb
boxes. College students are allowed to register for part time work in the shops. In
addition to this, the project is equipped with a Wood Shop, Aircraft Sheet Metal
Shop, Machine Shop, Electric Welding Shop, Power Sewing Shop, and a general
sheet metal shop.
Such a program as this offers vast possibilities for the post-war world. A voca-
tional trade school on a college level with college standards can be established, thus
giving adequate and thorough training to instructors and supervisory workers for in-
dustry. Plans for such a program are now being considered by the Georgia Board
of Regents.
W. Parker Bedingfield is supervisor of war production training with John W. Foun-
tain as War Production Engineer; Mrs. S. P. Craven, Bookkeeper, J. B. Stallings, Wood
Shop Instructor; James W. McNeely, Machine Shop Instructor; and James M. King
and Thomas L. Boyd, Welding Instructors.

Even though the Fall Quarter began with few sophomores, there is no evidence that
the beginning was bad, because the few sophomores seem to have had things pretty
well in hand well, as much as possible anyway. In a time of crisis such as the
one we are passing through, the student has a big job to do. He must prepare him-
self for this critical period and for the post-war world to follow.
As a tired child lays away his toys at the end of a day toys which have served
well but are still unforgotten we shall soon lay away many happy memories of our
two years at West Georgia. Gee! But these have been short, and it seems in-
credible that many of us will soon be stationed at points all over the globe.
Many of those whose pictures you see here will be serving on foreign fronts,
sacrificing much of their comfort and possibly even their lives for those freedoms
which we believe to be God-granted and which men must preserve.
These will be brave persons who love their country and fellow men; they are the
ones to whom we shall owe our sincerest gratitude, but there will still be many others,
just as brave, who will carry on here at home in the various essential jobs for which
they are fitted, helping to build morale to back up the boys over there. God give
them strength to exert themselves for the best.
There are those who will carry on in their respective fields of education here and
in higher institutions of learning. These deserve the utmost respect and every con-
sideration from the rest of us, because they will be the truest foundation for the world
we must have in that great tomorrow when the world is free of tyrants who try to
dominate all races and bring them to slavery. We must never let such tyrants rule
again, and our people who have the opportunity of training in schools to prepare
themselves to meet the greater domestic and international problems are working to-
ward this necessary objectives.

On September 21st many new faces began to appear on the campus . . . Some of
these had that intellectual look which invaribly comes with graduating from high
school . . . Some appeared lost in their new surroundings -shy, timid, puzzled. A
few with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge were eager to begin classes . . .
The Freshmen Class had arrived.
The boys were outnumbered two to one but not one complaint was heard from
them.
The first few weeks were tough ones for these new arrivals. The Freshmen
the chlorophyll of the campus were taught what college life is . . . the hard way.
They had to enter buildings and climb stairs backwards, bow down to the Sophs and
shine shoes for them, and learn the Freshmen Creed. Then to top all of that came
the Rat Parade. "Debs" and "playboys" donned their good looking clothes all of
them at once and paraded to town where they entertained the Sophs with songs,
dances, speeches, races and everything else imaginable.
It is a far cry from those timid, green boys and girls who entered West Georgia
last year to the confident, intelligent, progessive young men and women who now
have behind them a year of outstanding work and progress.
The future of the Freshmen looks bright . . . With all the brains and talent pos-
sessed by this group, how could they be anything but successful!

THIRD YEAR
The third year students have really accomplished things this year "in a big way. '
Learning to be teachers has proved to be a great experience and fun for all of us.
Of course we have had our ups and downs, but now we feel that we are ready to take
our places among the already long lists of school teachers.
At the beginning of each quarter we set up purposes, not only as teachers in
training, but also as professional assistants. And we feel that to a great extent these
purposes have been accomplished, or at least a good beginning made.
Among these things we have worked with are:
painting, washing windows, playground equipment, and general beautification of
school buildings and grounds;
planning for and assisting in carnivals, festivals, and community fairs;
attending community meetings, helping with recreation, and writing community
histories;
home nursing classes, health promotion in schools, making health posters, and as-
sisting in health clinics;
making charts, maps, photographs, writing news article and radio skits, and doing
dramatizations to tell the story of community education;
attending seminar, where we discussed real problems we face as teachers;
making trips to other schools and state departments of health and education;
"occasionally" we did do a "little" reading in addition to practice teaching,
nature study, music, art, and interne teaching.
As we look back at these things typical of our year, we find many wonderful
memories attached to them. So as we give up the third year room to the .next
third year students, we wish them a year equally successful.

The CHIEFTAIN staff has enjoyed collecting and organizing this material, which you have been so kind in
helping to gather. We present this volume of the CHIEFTAIN with some pride because we believe it typi-
fies the life and enthusiasm that have permeated the campus during the 1943-44 school year. It has been
our desire to picture life on the campus from all angles. We hope that this book will aid you in remember-
ing many happy events.

The WEST GEORGIAN has, since its first publication in 1933, won four First Class
honor ratings, thus placing it among the best junior college newspapers in the south.
This paper is published by the staff members who are seeking to promote the in-
terest and welfare of the student body and faculty.
The WEST GEORGIAN'S monthly publication is made up of the important events
and happenings on the campus that are of interest to the students as a whole.

One of the most active or3anizations on the campus is
the Women's Athletic Association. The purpose of this
club is to help bring to us a fuller and happier life through
recreation of mind and body. It tries to promote interest
and skill in athletics, and to develop good sportsmanship. Its
motto is: "A girl for every sport and a sport for every
girl." In order to fulll its purpose the W. A. A. sponsors
the activities of the sports clubs, various games, and tourna-
ments. We hope to bring some degree of enjoyment to
every woman at West Georgia College.

In 1964:
As you turn the pages of this proud Chieftain of 1944 . . .
As you hve again in fond memory the scenes so graphically
pictured herein . . .
As you ponder over names and faces of classmates and
faculty . . .
As you wonder where a certain friend is today, or, are re-
minded by a photograph that you knew a certain brilliantly
successful man or woman as a classmate . . .
As you reflect upon final examination worries, now en-
gulfed by time; or, the activities of campus and dormitory,
enriched by the intervening years, come to mind . . .
As in 1964 and years to come you relive the happy hours
of 1944 . . .
. . . May some of the hours spent with a friend
or classmate at our theatres be among your
happiest retrospections!
NOW;
To the staff: We offer hearty congratulations for a splendid
record of class and college activities and achievements in this
noble Chieftain!
To the members of the Sophomore Class who may leave
Carrollton: We extend our heartfelt wishes for success and
happiness in your chosen fields, and the hope that our paths
may cross again!
To those members who remain in our beautiful county,
students and faculty: We say that it is nice to know you so
well, and may our present congenial relations continue as
time marches on!
