THE
"America the Beautiful" has been chosen as the theme for
the 1959 Homecoming at Savannah State College, The College-by-
the-Sea.
The theme is particularly appropriate since Savannah State
College boasts one of the most naturally beautiful College campuses
in the entire United States. Visitors from near and far have ex-
pressed the fact that SSC's natural beauty is breath-taking. More-
over, beautiful, modern buildings and lovely co-eds embellish the
natural beauty of "Dear Old SSC." Yes, SSC is truly a part of
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL!

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
GENERAL INFORMATION BULLETIN
SAVANNAH, GEORGIA
The college is located in Chatham County, adjacent to the town of
Thunderbolt and to Savannah, Georgia's oldest city and chief seaport.
The campus, comprising one hundred and thirty-six acres, presents a
setting of matchless natural beauty. Among the more outstanding are the
attractively designed and modernly constructed Camilla Hubert Hall,
housing one hundred and seventy-five women; Adams Hall, the dining hall,
serving five hundred students at a time; Meldrim Hall, consisting of admin-
istrative offices, the auditorium, and some classrooms; Willcox and Wiley
Gymnasiums, headquarters of the Physical Education Department.
More recently completed structures are the central heating plant and
a men's dormitory. The heating plant, powered by three individual auto-
matic oil burning units of 575 horsepower, generates heat to meet the needs
of the entire campus. Wright Hall, the new dormitory, is an ultramodern,
fireproof structure which comfortably houses 210 men. An air-conditioned
library, a million dollar technical and science building and a modern
laboratory high and elementary school help to make Savannah State one
of the best.

riMpwea (mL Objects
Savannah State College, a unit of the University System of Georgia, is a college of
applied arts and sciences, teacher education, business administration, and industrial
technology.
The college has two main purposes. It affords students an opportunity to acquire
an education that will enable them to live effectively in a democratic society. It provides
continuing educational and cultural services for the people of Georgia.
A worth-while education, as the faculty conceives it, demands the full, rounded
development of the individual. Consistent with this large purpose the institution has
several major objectives. Specifically, the total college program is designed to help
students:
1. To gain basic preparation, personal qualities, and skills which are essential
alike to further study, earning a living, and personal well-being;
2. To understand the nature of mental, emotional, and physical health and to
practice habits conducive to sound personal and community health;
3. To attain a sharp awareness of social and civic responsibility and live daily as
good citizens;
4. To understand the common phenomena of man's physical environment and
use scientific advances for human welfare;
5. To cherish a discerning knowledge of man's cultural heritage, respect for
foreign peoples and cultures, and aesthetic appreciation of the creative artistic
expressions of the human spirit;
6. To know and live by those moral and spiritual values which refine and exalt
human life.
To attain these objectives the college (a) offers formal instruction organized within
seven divisions — Business Administration, Education, Humanities, Natural Sciences,
Social Sciences, Technical Sciences, Home Study; (b) selects and upgrades teachers,
counsellors, personnel workers, administrative and auxiliary services personnel; (c) gives
students due responsibility in making their own educational decisions and performing
work-aid duties, participating in government of the college, extra-class activities, campus
life, and religious services; (d) draws upon all available intellectual, cultural, techni-
cal, and spiritual resources to enrich the lives of students.
Briefly then, every teacher, every facility, every arrangement here serves two main
purposes. It is that boys and girls may develop into mature men and women who live
effectively in the community, the state, and nation. It is that life may be made richer
for the people of Georgia.
Savannah State College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools and by the Department of Education of the State of Georgia.
a3^o
X)vmion of
Students expecting to major in Business should be-
come as proficient as possible in Mathematics and Eng-
lish. Thus, prospective Business majors should take as
much Mathematics and English as possible at the high
school level. While not essential, students may also take
such courses as Bookkeeping, Typing, Shorthand, and
other General Business subjects offered in their respec-
tive high schools.
One of the advantages of majoring in Business is
that one is preparing himself for a wide variety of
employment possibilities. Business majors may not only
teach but they may operate their own business estab-
lishments, work in private industry, and work for the
government — national, state and local.
More specifically, Business majors may work as
bookkeepers, accountants (public and private), sales-
men, secretaries, stenographers, typists, economists, busi-
ness managers and executives. They may also own and
operate their own business establishments.
To realize the aims of a person desiring training in
Business, Savannah State College's Division of Business
offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of
Business Administration, and a terminal, two-year pro-
gram leading to a certificate of proficiency.
A student in Business Administration may pursue
a major in one of four areas: (1) General Business
Administration, (2) Economics, (3) Secretarial Science,
and (4) Business Education Major.

The formal instructional program of Savannah State
College comprises the general curriculum, areas of major
and minor concentration, and terminal curricula. The
program is organized within these seven divisions:
The Division of Business Administration
The Division of Education
Department of Elementary Education
Department of Secondary Education
Department of Health. Physical Education, and
Recreation
The Division of Humanities
Department of English
Department of Fine Arts
Department of Modern Languages
The Division of Natural Sciences
Department of Biology

The Division of Social Sciences
The Division of Technical Sciences
Department of Home Economics
Department of Industrial Technology

T?iahaIovi of Educfllm
The Division of Education at Savannah State College
is organized around the concept which conceives that
teaching is a distinctive and definitive profession. In
common with the other great professions of our culture,
teaching, to be worthy, involves acquisition by the
practitioner of fine, highly developed sensitivities and
specialized knowledges and competencies. Such an in-
dividual must also possess a genuine, practical philo-
sophical and psychological approach to learning within
the framework of the culture in which the educational
program exists.
The Division provides programs for preparation of
teachers, within the frame of reference described above,
in the following areas:
( 1 1 Elementary Education,
(2) English,
(3) General Science,
(4) Industrial Education,
(5) Mathematics,
(6) Music Education.
( 7 ) Social Studies and
(8) Health, Physical Education and Recreation
The Division maintains constant contact with the
Division of Certification of the State Department of
Education and makes every effort to be assured that
successful completion of any of the programs by a
student is tantamount to satisfaction of certification
requirements.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH
Basically. English major has a practical purpose. It
seeks subtle values. It aims, in a word, in producing a
broadly-educated human being. // seeks to develop the
mind, to make it more flexible and more perceptive. It
acquaints the student with the great literary works of
our culture and reveals the operation of the human
spirit in our civilization. It cultivates an interest in
books and reading which can give him life-long satisfac-
tion. Although the study of English gives the student a
first-hand knowledge of literature and the related arts,
its ultimate aim is a quality of mind rather than any
mere accumulation of information. It seeks to provide
a solid educational foundation on which the student
may later base the specialization required for any busi-
ness or profession. Students of literature believe that
the cultivated mind is the best guarantee which educa-
tion can offer to ultimate success in life.
If the student who majors in English wishes to con-
tinue his education in graduate or professional school,
he has a wide variety of opportunities open to him. The
SURVEYING
CHEMISTRY
PHYSICS
ARCHITECTURAL DRAFTING
following list comprises only a few of the areas an
English major is prepared to enter:
M.A. and Ph.D.: He may pursue graduate degrees
in English, Comparative literature. Foreign langu-
age, linguistics, history, and other subjects.
M.B.A. He may enter a graduate school as a candi-
date for the degree of Master of Business Ad-
ministration.
PROFESSIONAL DEGREES: An English major is
regarded as sound preparation for specialized
professional training in LAW . THEOLOGY,
SOCIAL WORK, HEARING AND SPEECH
CORRECTION. LIBRARY SCIENCE, and— by
a number of Medical Schools— MEDICINE.
Some idea of the applicability of English to a variety
of vocations may be gained from the following list of
positions often held by men and women who have
majored in this subject:
ADVERTISING: Copywriter. research worker,
editor, executive.
BUSINESS: Personnel counselor, advertising copy-
writer, advertising manager, salesman (particu-
larly in dealing with specialized and often highly
educated customers), executive.

DEPARTMENT OF
FINE ARTS
As for opportunities for employment in the field of
Music, perhaps the greatest demand is for teachers in
the public schools. A Music teacher can also find open-
ings in parochial schools, colleges, universities, con-
servatories, private schools, and music studios. Instru-
mental and vocal ensembles, concert soloists, supervisors,
and consultants are also drawn from the ranks of
teachers.
Music Therapists are growing in abundance in
civilian and veteran hospitals, in clinics for the handi-
capped, and in corrective institutions.
Instrumentalists have opportunities in the bands
and orchestras of the Armed Forces, in symphony
orchestras, concert bands, dance bands, night clubs,
radio, television, motion pictures, small ensembles, and
as concert soloists.
Vocalists can be employed as church soloists, in
church choirs, in community choral groups, on radio and
television, in motion pictures, in dance bands, in night
clubs, in concert choral groups, in opera choruses, as
opera stars, and as concert soloists.
The area of church music, consisting of opportunities
as minister of music, organist, or choir director, is in
need of good musicians in both the Christian churches
and Synagogues.
The composer, arranger, the orchestrator, and the
copyist all have opportunities as teachers of theory and
composition. In addition to educational and art music,
openings also exist for them in commercial music such
as in popular areas, motion pictures, radio, and tele-
vision.
The conductor can be a teacher in a college, uni-
versity, conservatory, or church, and can find additional
employment in radio, television, dance bands, concert
bands, symphony orchestras, opera companies, or choral
groups.
The tuner-technician of pianos and other instruments
pursues a related career. He may engage in private busi-
ness or in a factory or as a dealer, or he may become
a teacher in colleges, universities, conservatories, or
private schools.
In music industry another facet of a music career
embraces the publishers of music and musical periodicals,
the manufacturers of all kinds of musical instruments and
phonograph records, the managers and booking agents
of musicians, the producers of musical shows, salesmen
of music, instruments, records, and artists, and editors
and critics of newspapers and periodicals.
Music Librarians have opportunities in colleges, uni-
versities, conservatories, public libraries, motion picture
studios, orchestras, bands, and radio and television
stations.
All in all, for the serious, ambitious music students
there are several opportunities for a career in music.
It is the primary responsibility of the student, however,
to seek guidance in the area of his interests and
capabilities, and once having decided on his particular
direction, he is charged with the supreme challenge and
duty to become the best person available in his area.

DEPARTMENT OF
MODERN LANGUAGES
Outside of the field of education, a person with a
major or a minor in a foreign language can find em-
ployment in several areas. First, there is the area of
organizations of a more or less international character.
Because of the nature of its work, there is almost a
constant demand at the United Nations Headquarters
for men and women who are proficient in foreign
languages. They may find employment as interpreters,
translators. U.N. guides (women only), clerks, typists
and stenographers. Two other organizations more or less
international in character where linguists are needed
are the World Health Organization and the International
Monetary Fund. In the former of these organizations
there are opportunities available overseas for young men
and women who have college degrees and who know
French or Spanish. The latter organization reports that
it is interested in economics and secretarial personnel
and that, although a knowledge of a foreign language
is not always essential, it is considered useful. The
second area is that of government employment. Some
positions are available with the government of such
states as New York, Texas and California, but most of
the openings are found in the various agencies and
departments of the Federal Government. For example,
a student with a major or a minor in Spanish may find
employment with the Immigration and Naturalization
Service of the Department of Justice. The Department
of State needs translators and escort-interpreters. It also
needs linguists for its Foreign Service. In the National
Library of Medicine, connected with the Department of
Health. Education and Welfare, there are openings for
young men and women with degrees in library science
who are also competent in one or more foreign langu-
ages. This library also has positions available in its
indexing operations for persons with college degrees
with a knowledge of foreign languages plus education
and experience in the medical and biological sciences.
The Department of the Army would like to have some
secretaries for duty overseas, who are able to speak the
language of the country to which they are assigned and
who are also able to perform research work. Then, in
the Library of Congress, the Personnel Director will
accept applications for the position of sub-professional
librarian. Those applying for this position must have
two or more years of college, some knowledge of a
foreign language and, in many instances, ability to type.
There are positions available also with the National
Security Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency, the
U. S. Information Agency, and several others.

The Division of Natural Sciences is one of the major
areas of instruction at Savannah State College. This
division is staffed by well qualified personnel; as a
whole, people who have had long experience in the teach-
ing profession, and graduates from some of the best
universities in this Country. All of the staff members
are very well acquainted with the problems of our
present-day youths. They realize that the young people
of today are frustrated; they know that young people
need help in making decision in a world in which there
are many, many opportunities.
Savannah State College, through its Division of
Natural Sciences, is ready to continue helping young
people to prepare themselves for living. With the large
science-technical building near its completion, the Col-
lege is better prepared to render a greater service in the
area of science than heretofor. Some of the offerings
are (1) PREMEDICAL WORK. In this age when health
is being given priority in our thinking, the need for
well trained doctors of medicine cannot be over stressed.
WE NEED TRAINED DOCTORS TODAY. We also
need other health personnel: dentists, nurses, pharmacists,
etc. (2) WE NEED TRAINED CHEMISTS. We need
the trained chemists to help us live better; develop new
products for human consumption; work in our defense
plants, and in many other ways. (3) WE NEED
TRAINED BIOLOGISTS. We need the trained biologists
to help others to understand the living organisms with-
in our environment; for research work in medicine,
dentistry, and other areas including health. (4) WE
NEED TRAINED MATHEMATICIANS AND PHYSI-
CISTS. The Space Age, the launching of satellites,
preparation of machines for defense purposes, are only
a few reasons why we need men well prepared in
mathematics and physics.
Graduates from Savannah State College who prepared
themselves in the area of the Natural Sciences are doing
well in various jobs. Some are engaged in research
work in health; some in industry; others have entered
medical schools and are now practicing medicine,
dentistry, or nursing; some are medical laboratory
technicians; and still others are in the teaching pro-
fession.
11
The Division of Social Sciences offers two major
programs for persons interested in the social sciences.
Curriculum I leads to the B.S. degree in the social
sciences with a concentration in history. Curriculum II
leads to the B.S. degree in the social sciences with a
concentration in Sociology leading to the professional
study of social work.
Persons who plan to teach social studies in the sec-
ondary school should enroll in the Teacher Education
Program and pursue the B.S. degree in Education with
a concentration in the social sciences.
Curriculum I is designed for persons interested in
careers in: law, government service, diplomatic service,
general research. Young Men's Christian Association, and
Urban League work. Curriculum II is designed for
persons interested in careers as: social workers, proba-
tion officers, vocational counselors, camp counselors,
employment interviewers, juvenile court workers, wel-
fare fund workers, and immigration service workers.

UUHAVWl of
There is urgent need for people with special skills
and training — people who are able to help translate
scientific ideas and discoveries into useful products and
services. This is the role of the technician.
The technician is a special kind of person, and in
certain fields he assists in planning and development
work, estimating, research work, and is ofteji called
upon to perform jobs ranging from simple testing
projects to tasks requiring a high degree of creative
and technical talents.
Of one thing we can be certain: We will need more
technicians on the research teams, in the laboratories,
in the factories, on the assembly line, in the installing,
upkeeping and promotion of sales. All of these will re-
quire many different types of trained technicians.
The following fields offer a great opportunity for em-
ployment as technicians:
1. Automotive Technology
2. Building Construction
3. Electric Power
4. Diesel
5. Chemical
6. Instrumentation
7. Air Conditioning
8. Aviation
9. Electronics

About This Issue
The College has the distinction this
year of haying a son moved up to the
presidency of the Georgia Teachers and
Education Association and a daughter
being selected as "Georgia Teacher of
the Year."' These two positions are the
two highest in their respective categories
and it is indeed unique for any College
to have both a son and daughter to hold
these positions concurrently.
It is also a distinction to have many
of our graduates in the various counties
to be selected as "Teacher of the \ ear "
by their local school organizations.
Do you wonder about commencements
of the past years? As a special treat to
vou. we are running a picture of the
Class of 1900 and the complete Com-
mencement Program. This incidentally
was the first co-ed class and only one
member survives today. This person is
Mrs. Florance Fields Law who is the
mother of Leonard D. Law. our Na-
tional President. She was given special
recognition and honors at the Alumni
Banquet, June 4, 1960. We know you
will want to congratulate Mrs. Law. so
you may send your congratulatory mes-
sages to her at 521 East Henry Street.

Have you ever imagined what a beau-
tiful picture three N-ational Queens make
when the camera catches them all at
once? Wait until you see Miss Louise

Teachers and Education Association
Convention in Savannah.
The Maceo Homes had the distinction
of receiving their. Master degrees from
Butler University together at the same
Commencement, "1959."
We were able to add another Doc-
torate to our growing list when Carlton
Moss received his Ed.D. from the Uni-
versity (jf Oklahoma.
Do you remember the children of Dr.
and Mrs. W. K. Payne? Most of us re-
member them as "Little Rosalyn" and
William Kenneth when they used to run
around the campus. Recently, Rosalyn
returned home for a few da\s with her
husband and two children. As a very
special treat to you, on this inside cover,
we are running two pictures of this
wonderful "homecoming ' so you can see
how much "Little Rosalyn" has accom-
plished since you last saw her.
As you go through this issue, you
will find many other surprises.

1960 Graduates Pay 1960-61
Scholarship Contributions
James Nevels and Lillian W. Wright re-
ceived their B.S. degrees about 12:15 p.m. and
were inducted into the Savannah State College
National Alumni Association about 12:25 p.m.,
June 8, 1960.
About 3 p.m., June 8, 1960, Mr. Nevels and
Mrs. Wright found Prince Jackson, Jr., Col-
lege Alumni Secretary, and paid their $5
Alumni Scholarship Fund dues to become the
first donors to the Fund for 1960-61. The
Alumni is glad to see this kind of spirit.
Perhaps some of this spirit will rub off on
other alumni and we can realize that $5,000
Scholarship in one year. We have been trying
for more than 4 years without success.
Ocilla, Douglas and Fitzgerald
Areas to Form Alumni Chapter
William Witherspoon, Lee Mark Daniels
and Clarence Lofton of Fitzgerald, Ocilla and
Douglas respectively will organize an alumni

A FOREWORD

?■■*
*
We art? such stuff as dreams are made. on,
and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
— Shakespeare
*
Ours is a world of dreams — of ambitions, aspirations, fancier, hopes, suppositions. We dream
that this 1960 Savannah State College Homecoming Celebration will be uncommonly meaningful
to every one of us (alumni, students, members of the staff, and well-wishers) spiritually, morally,
and intellectually, lie hope that, looking back years from now. we shall all entertain heartwarming
memories of our experiences during this all important weekend.
Members of the alumni, your alma mater has been especially ambitious as to this particular
Homecoming. It has worked diligently to make you know and feel that you actually are a! home.
We want you to feel that way, to act that way. We urge you to be evernundful that together we
constitute the Savannah State College family, together we share our World of Dreams.
Ours is a Jet-Age world of lightning-swift changes. Returning from your various cities across
the state and the nation, you will find that Savannah State is directly in step, and on the march
with the Jet Age. Looking over the campus, you will find major changes in the curriculum, the
staff, etc. You will find that some neiv buildings are under consideration, that some new buildings
are already completed, and that renovation is going on well-nigh everywhere. This, of course, may
cause you to experience some inconvenience; we hope, not too much. We rest assured that you will
remain ever mindful that, after all, ours is a World of Dreams. Hence, we simply must continually
aspire for a growingly superior Savannah State College.
Meet your former classmates and schoolmates; talk with students and staff members; learn
what's going on here at S.S.C. Share experiences. Thus rejuvenate yourself and live again those
almost-forgotten S.S.C. days that we should like to remember not to forget as the inevitably on-
coming years insist upon reminding us that "we are such stuff as dreams are made on."
We are proud to have you as our house guests. We count ourselves fortunate that you liave
come back again. We are glad that you are here. Getting together periodically like this, observing
this time-honored tradition of Homecoming, helps us all to realize the increasing necessity of
striving unceasingly for an ever greater Savanna li Stale. Noticing the physical changes in those
we meet after the passing of a few years, we realize that we, loo, are much farther advanced along
the nay of life. Yes, suddenly we realize that "our little life is rounded with a sleep. '
So, let us remember S.S.C. meaningfully. Let us cooperate with our alma mater — contribut-
ing lime, labor, and money Ion aid the achievement of its dreams. Let us never forget that an
institution of learning is no greater than its alumni, for
A house is built of bricks and stones, of sills and posts and piers.
But a home is built of loving deeds that stand a thousand years.

MESSAGE
*
Savannah State College is glad to observe Animal Homecoming each year. The greeting of alumni, former students,
and interested friends is one of the highlights of I lie academic year. Since it comes in the Fall, it furnishes inspiration and
drive to reach higher standards and new achievements.
ind friends of long standing, we are conscious of two vital processes.
As we greet our alumni, new acquainlanc<
On the one hand, there is always something to sec; while on the other hand, there is something to feel. Each year friends
and visitors returning to the College are able to see a number of additions to and improvements in the physical plant. The
College is continuing to upgrade its physical facilities and to construct new facilities in the light of present day needs and
programs.
Evervone who experiences homecoming understands that there is something to feel. In most instances it is not possible
to touch it with the body. This group of items is communicated through the academic atmosphere and tone of the institution.
One discovers this as he moves among the students, faculty, staff, and members of the college community. This feeling is
an index to the developments which are taking place in the teaching and learning activities developed in the institution. The
recognition of rising academic standards provides the other side of the picture which one sees on the physical side. The
historical view of Savannah State College, which observes its 70th Anniversarv this vear. indicates that the College has con-
tinued to grow in strength and service to the youth of this state. It is desirable that at some time during the day of cele-
bration, a moment of thought may be given to the things seen and felt.
Along with greetings to the Savannah Slate College alumni, we extend greetings to our visitors from Morris College.
The long record of fine relationship in college athletics with the faculty and student body of Morris College heightens our
enjoyment of this occasion. The football teams representing the two colleges will furnish a contest which contributes toward
the high aims and ideals of each institution. When the shot is fired for the end of the game, we wish to sav that the contest
was a displav of the finest quality of sportsmanship.

Tf there were dreams to sell.
What would you buy?
Some cost a passing bell:
Some a light sigh.
That shakes from Life's fresh crown
Only a rose-leaf down,
If there were dreams to sell
Merry and sad to tell,
And the crier rang the bell.
What would you buy?
A cottage lone and still
With bowers nigh,
Shadowy, my woes to still,
Until I die.
Such pearl from Life's fresh crown
Fain would I shake me down.
Were dreams to have at will
This would best heal my ill-
This would I buy-
But there were dreams to sel
111 didst thous buy;
Life is a dream, they tell,
Walking to die.
Dreaming a dream to prize.
Is wishing ghosts to rise;
And if I had the spell
To call the buried well,
Which one would I?
If there are ghosts to raise,
What shall I call,
Out of hell's murky haze
Heaven's blue pall?
Raise my loved long-lost boy.
To lead me to his joy.
There are no ghosts to raise
Out of death lead no ways;
Vain is the call.
Knowst thou not ghosts to sue.
No love thou hast.
\he lie. as I will do.
And breathe tin dasl
So out of Life's fresh crov
Fall like a rose-leaf down.
Thus arc the ghosts to woo:
Thus ace all il reams made true,
Ever to last!

A WORLD OF DREAMS
WHAT CAN I DO?
Making our World of Dreams a reality requires all of us (alumni,
students, staff, well-wishers) to do the very best we can with whatever
resources we have at our disposal. Some can do one thing; some can
do another. But each one of us can do something.
Limitations as to time and space prohibit an elaboration upon
many things that we can do. Following are a few that deserve pains-
taking consideration:
1. We can contribute books to the library thus strengthening the
entire college.
2. We can direct worthy students to the College.
3. We can help worthy students remain at the College. ( Many of
us would be shocked to know how many excellent students who
should be in College are not able to attend, and how many who
do enter College are compelled to drop out because of in-
sufficient funds. I
4. We can support all S.S.C. projects, on and off-campus.
5. We can contribute regularly and substantially to the Savannah
State College Scholarship Fund.
6. We can maintain a kindly attitude toward S.S.C, realizing that
an institution of learning is no greater than its products.
7. We (each of us) can resolve that
I am only one,
But I am one.
I cannot do everything.
But, I can do something.
What I can do, I ought to do,
And what I ought to do,
By the grace of God,
I will do.
Thus, every one of us (alumni, students, members of the faculty,
well-wishers, et al.) can contribute toward making Savannah State
College's World of Dreams a heartwarming and lifegiving accomplish-
ment.

The Griffin Chapter is the
youngest among the twenty chap-
ters of th e National Alumni Asso-
ciation but has already exhibited
a "spirit" that should make it one
of the strongest in the alumni
structure.
The members are meeting regu-
larly and one of the first official
actions of the chapter was to pay
their scholarship contributions for
the year. They have already set
up their constitution and everyone
regularly attends the meetings on
the fourth Sunday of each month.
Plans are underway to sponsor
several affairs for next year and a
study is being made to find ways
to make Savannah State more wide-
ly known in that area. Mr. Lewis
Banks, President of the Chapter,
is to be congratulated and com-
mended for the tremendous job he
has done in just four short months.
If graduates in the non-chapter
areas would do half as much as
the Griffin group, there would be
very few alumni problems.

Miss Matella Maree, 1936 Grad-
uate of the College, was recently
named "Georgia Teacher of the
Year". She follows Mrs. Nancy
H. Walker, who followed Mrs. Sadie

in the state. No other college can
claim this distinction.
Miss Metella W. Maree, teacher at
John W. Hubert Elementary School,
was named "Teacher of the State
of Georgia" at the annual banquet.
Teachers from al I over the state
were feted by the Georgia Chamber
of Commerce and the Georgia Tea-
chers and Education Association
at Thomas Healthe Slater School.
Mrs. Sadie D. Steele, teacher of
Johnson Elementary School, was
"Teacher of the Year" for the
term 1959-60. Mrs. Nancy Walker,
Special Education Teacher at

"THIS IS YOUR LIFE" FAMILY
The Norman B. Elmores pose for a family picture after Mr. Elmore re-
ceived the "This is your Life" plaque from the Savannah Chapter. Mr.
Elmore was honored for the many outstanding contributions he has made
to his Alma Mater and the Community of Savannah.
Columbia University where she re-
ceived her Master's Degree. She
is a product of Savannah Public
Schools and Spelman Sr. High.
She earned an A. B. Degree from
Columbia University. She has
done advanced work at the Uni-
versity of Southern California. She
has done advanced work at the
University of Chicago and Colum-
bia University also.
She is widely known for her dyna-
mic leadership in school, civic
and community activities. Recog-
nition has been given her service
by numberlesscertificates, awards
and other honors.
A few of her affiliations are as
follows: Carnegie Library Board
of Directors, Savannah Mental
Health Board, Charter Member,
Savannah Youth Museum, Vice-
President of Frank Callen Boy's
Club Board of Directors, Troop
Consultant - Mamie George Wil-
liams District, Charter Member -
Chatham County School Employers
Credit Union, and West Broad
Y.M.C. A., and Board of Manage-
ment - Chairman U. S. 0. Commit-
tee.

Chatham County teacher) are the only living members of the class.
Fictured to the left is Miss Lula Smith, '01, one of four living
members of the 1901 class. Miss Smith has worked untiringly
as an alumna of the College for sixty years. She is still active
in the meetings and has not missed showing up on the fourth
Sunday for the Savannah Chapter meeting in many years. If
love for the institution was ever shown, she has shown it. Pre-
sently serving as Treasurer of the Chapter, she keeps the books
in perfect order. Whenever someone is sick or has received an
honor, she never forgets to send the appropriate message for the
Chapter. As a result of her unselfish services to the College,
she has gained the love and respect of all who have had the priv-
ilege of being in her presence. It has often been said that if
one-fourth of the alumni were doing as much as Miss Smith, the
College would have no kind of problem in alumni affairs.
As in any growing organization, the Alumni Association depends solely upon the graduating classes to
furnish the future leadership. The Class of 1961 is indeed fortunate to have among its members, offi-
cers and leaders of the kind that are pictured on this page. They have not only displayed outstanding
leadership ability but are anxious to join the ranks of the alumni and work for the building of a greater
Savannah State.

SiATE COLLEGE ALUMNI
ASSOCIATION
The Athens Chapter of SSC Alumni
Association, with an eye cast to-
wards the immediate future and the
new frontier, is planning another first
for alumni chapters in the North
Georgia area. Preliminary plans are
now being made to bring to Athens
and North Georgia a scholarship
benefit basketball game featuring
the champions of S.E.A.C. and Dis-
trict 6 N.A.I. A., Savannah State Col-
lege Tigers and another worthy op-
ponent.
The Chapter held a limited number
of meetings during the 1960-61 school
year. All of these meetings, how-
ever, were devoted to the develop-
ments of new methods to strengthen
the organization and increase its
sphere of influence.
Many graduates of Savannah State
College, now living in the Athens
area, are not members of the Savan-'
nah State College Alumni Association
nor do they participate in any manner
in alumni affairs. The enrollment of
the participation of these individ-
uals in alumni affairs is sMll the
number one problem confronting the
Athens Chapter.
During 1960-61, members of the Ath-
ens Chapter have remained active.
Hattie Marie Patman , Miss Savannah
State Alumni Queen from the Athens
Chapter, along with Ellie Gay, local
chapter member, served as represen-
tatives of SSC at the Annual Career
Day Program held at Athens High and
Industrial School. Emma L. Brown-
ing, Treasurer of the Athens Chapter,
was elected "Teacher of the Year"
for Oconee County. Homer T. Ed-
wards, Principal of Athens High and
Industrial School attended the meet-
ing of National Association of Secon-
dary School Principals held in De-
troit, Michigan. Rowena B. McCree,
Counselor at the Athens High and In-
dustrial School, attended the American
Personnel and Guidance Association
Meeting in Denver, Colorado. Miss
McCree is also the writer of a thought
provoking article on "Departmental-
ization in the Elementary School,"
published in the Atlanta Constitution.
Willie E. McBride served as a di-
vision leader in the Annual Member-
ship Drive of the Samuel F. Harris
Y.M.C.A., Athens, and as chairman
for Men's Day at Ebenezer Baptist
Church. Mr. McBride. was elected
permanent chairman of the residental
division of the American Cancer Fund
Drive for Athens and Clarke County,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees of
Ebenezer Baptist Church, and Chair-
man of Leadership Training for the
Northeast Georgia Division of Boy
Scouts of America. Homer T. Ed-
wards, Ellie Gay, Frances McBride,
Georgia Browning and Willie E. Mc
Bride served on numerous occasions
as speakers for church, civic, social
and professional organizations.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CHAPTER
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
NATIONAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
The D. C. Chapter of the Savannah
State College Alumn i Association
held its Annual Banquet for the sec-
ond time at the beautiful Northeast
Westbrook's Drive-In and Restaurant
on Benning Road in Washington,
D. C, March 11, 1961. This banquet
was attended by one of the largest
groups of Savannahians seen around
town in a long time.
Rev. Amor Davis, an alumnus
and Assistant Pastor of New Bethel
Baptist Church, 9th and S Streets,
N. W., Washington, D. C, opened
the festivities with prayer, after
which the Toastmaster and Chairman
Dr. Julius Gooden, introduced all
members of the local Alumni Asso-
ciation and their guests. Among the
many guests were: Mrs. Vera R.
Trappio, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Robin-
son, Mr. and Mrs. Albert S. Bacon,
Sr. and Dr. Gordon.
Mrs. Rosa Moore, former secretary
of this Chapter, introduced the dy-
namic, charming an d capable speaker
of ths i evening, Mrs. Jewel R. Mazi-
que, who recently returned from an
extensive tour of Africa, sponsored
by the Department of State. The sub-
ject of Mrs . Mazique's remarks was:
"Can Education Meet The Challenge
In A Declining Civilization?" The
speech, which wa s very timely, was
enjoyed by all. It gave us some in-
centive to face the many challenges
we encounter daily and to be more de-
termined to do everything in our pow-
er to meet our obligations and make
plans for the future whereby we can
be assured of a more beautiful world
in which to live.
The Annual Project, which was
the "Candy Project" for the year
1960, goes on record as being one
of the best and most successful pro-
jects that we have undertaken. Al-
though we decided to sell dollar cans
of candy at first, it is well that we
had Mr. Trappio, who suggested that
we sell "Katydids" by Katherine
Beich, an even more expensive candy
for $1.50, but whose net results
proved to be to our advantage by
about one-third of the total receipts,
as reported by that committee, con-
sisting of Mr. William Weston, Mr.
James 0. Thomas and Miss Juanita
Florence. We congratulate the com-
mittee for a job well done.
We especially want to commend
Mrs. Velma Zeigler and Mr. Ellis
Trappio for having been the high sell-
ers in the Candy Project, and awards
will be presented at a later date for
their most cooperative and outstand-
ing work in out-selling everyone else
who partook in this project.
Mr. Ledbetter has been elected
the new Chairman of the Activities
Committee for this year, and he so-
licits your suggestions for future pro-
jects and activities for this Chapter.
The D. C Chapter congratulates
Dr. Julius Gooden and his committee
for a splendid job done as Chairman
of the Activities Committee for the
year 1960.

gree in Secretarial Science at Savan-

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
December, 195<J
The Savannah State College Alumni Newsletter
The Savannah State Newsletter is published quarterly by
Savannah State College through the Office of Public Relations
and Alumni Affairs.
Dr. William K. Payne President
Prince Jackson, Jr ^ Editor
James Nevels Student Assistant
Wilton C. Scott ! Advisor
Notes From the Editor's Desk
The publishing of this Alumni Newsletter is another step in
Dr. W. K. Payne's plan to make our alumni the best in the country.
It is just another one of the many investments he has been making
in the alumni of our College. I am sure you will agree that this
investment will return handsome dividends to us in the forms of
scholarship aid for the College and renewed interest in the total
College program by the alumni. Congratulations for his fore-
sightedness are certainly in order.
The fact that white business firms donated more than 69 per
cent of the $4,600 (this is the largest amount ever given to the
College by the alumni in a single year), given to the College by
the alumni should cause many of our alumni to have insomnia.
It is estimated that we have a potential of 7,000 alumni and we
are reaching about 3,500 of these. If only 50 per cent of those
we are reaching had given the $5.00 tax deductible contribution
asked for in the National Alumni Association Constitution, we could
have given the College $8,750 plus the $3,250 from the firms for
a total of $12,000. As it now stands our contributions averaged
about 20 cents per alumnus. Since only Negro boys and girls benefit
from the fund, "race pride" should inspire those who have never
given anything to wake up and help the "faithful few." After all,
State belongs to all of us and all of us must share in the financial
burden of scholarship aid to the less fortunate Negro boys and girls.
It was very enjoyable talking to some of the grads in Athens
lately. The chapter is on the ball and has never faltered in its
obligations to the College since its organization four years ago.
It seems that my old classmate, W. H. McBride, has the organiza-
tion so busy until everyone looks forward with anticipation to
attendance at the next meeting. I can remember how hard Miss
Wilhelmena Hardeman worked to get things going and the ball has
kept rolling, apparently picking up speed. Mr. Law has said on
many occasions that if the "spirit" of Athens could be transported,
our alumni problems would be solved in record time.
I had a recent opportunity to talk with Charles DuVaul and
Eddie Lindsey in Columbus. Judging from their enthusiasm, the
reorganization of the Columbus chapter is going to be the best
thing to happen to the College in 1959-60. The chapter has invited
me to come up in the near future and help them complete the
reorganization and I am looking forward to this meeting. The
chapter's potential is more than seventy. Congratulations, Colum-
bus. State appreciates what you have done.
There are still too many areas in the state and country with
huge concentrations of grads and no chapters. New York, Chicago,
Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Miami, Kingstree, Greenville, New
Orleans, New Haven, Tallahassee, are just a few of the out-of-state
cities that should take note of what Raymond Knight and the
Washington, D. C, grads have done. Waycross, Griffin, Bainbridge,
Sylvania, Springfield, Yidalia, Rome, Millcdgcvillc, Sparta, Greens-
boro, Hogansville, LeGrange, Newnan, Millen, Americus, Woodbine,
Thomson, Swainsboro, Thomasville, Jesup, Ludowici, Blackshear,
Sandersville, Louisville, Ocilla, Douglas, Cuthbert, Quitman, Lincoln-
ton, Vienna, Forsyth and Cairo are some of the cities in the state
that should have alumni chapters. Many of the cities mentioned
could easily consolidate their efforts into a single large chapter.
Lyons and Vidalia, Forsyth and Barnesville are ideal for combina-
tions. If you need information about organizing, please let us
hear from you.
I would like to say thanks to our faculty and grads on the
faculty for contributing so generously to the National Defense
Loan Fund at the College. As a result of their generosity and the
alumni who sent contributions, the College received $16,804 from
the Federal Government and was able to set up a fund of almost
$19,000 for worthy but needy students to borrow from this school
year. (The government provides 90 per cent of the fund.) With
the same cooperation this year, we can get the same from the
Government again. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Owens (both grads) con-
tributed $50 to the fund.
The deadline for news appearing in the February issue is
January 20, 1960. Please send your chapter and individual news
as soon as possible.
Please send us the name and address of any graduate or former
student who is not hearing from us. We are doing everything
possible to locate all of our alumni and you can be a big help to us.
PRINCE JACKSON, JR.,
Alumni Secretary
Dr. W. K. Payne delivers Annual Alumni Address at Homecoming Luncheon. Mrs. Payne,
"First Lady of College," "Willie H. McBride, "49", and L. D. Law, "31", Vice President
and President of National Alumni Association, respectively, look on attentively. Mr.
McBride is also President of Athens Alumni.
Prince Jackson, Jr., "49", College Alumni Secretary, congratulates Johnny Owens, "50",
on his receiving Master's Degree from Columbia University. Mr. Owens is currently
organizing Sylvania Alumni.
President Payne Speaks
It is a pleasure to greet the alumni and former students of
Savannah State College at this time. The year 1959 has been one
of special significance to the College. Some of the most important
developments planned over the past decade are becoming a reality.
On September 1, 1959, the New College Library was turned over
to the Institution by the University System Building Authority. The
need for this facility has been recognized as essential for a sound edu-
cational program for many years. Effort has been made to increase
the number of books, periodicals, and other materials that make a
good college library. Through special assistance from the Board of
Regents, the College has increased the staff, removed obsolete and
useless materials, and provided more than $20,000.00 for additional
books and other materials. A similar program to be followed for a
period of several years will further enhance the educational program
of the Institution.
In the second place, the year 1959 has brought into reality a
modern science and technical building. This facility will provide
adequate housing and equipment for the physical sciences— chemis-
try and physics, and the most up-to-date technical education center
on the college level in this section of the United States. The building
is in the final stages of development and it should be released to
the College during the early part of the coming year. In addition to
new facilities for the physical sciences, there will be new facilities
and equipment for the biological sciences and mathematics. The
complete renovation of Herty Hall will provide laboratories, equip-
ment, and space for these latter fields.
In the third place, the College is proud of the interest and
enthusiasm of the alumni. Savannah State College is fortunate to
have a growing and vital organization. The extent to which the
alumni have shown their interest may be noticed by their frequent
visits to the Institution, the increase in alumni scholarship funds,
and the willingness of chapters and individuals to assist the Insti-
tution in recruiting promising students. These activities and many
others make us feel that the year 1959 has been significant in the
development of Savannah State College.

Dear Mr. Law:

The College is proud that the

the world. You are to be com-
mended for your special effort
and success in this major under-
taking.
Appreciating your loyalty,
financial assistance, and con-
structive interest in the develop-
ment of the program of the
College, I am
Sincerely yours.
W. K. PAYNE.
President
Columbus Alumni
Reorganizes
By Eddie T. Lindsey
Payne, Colston, Hubert, Wiley,
and Wright were names that
figured in the chatter at a re-
cent reorganization meeting held
by Columbus graduates of Sa-
vannah State College.
The meeting was held in the
conference room of the Fourth
Avenue Library on October 26.
C. W. DuVaul, principal of
Spencer Senior High, served as
temporary chairman.
There was surprising enthusi-
asm exemplified by the group,
and steps toward reorganization
began promptly. The group held
an election which resulted in Mr.
DuVaul being named President.
Other officers include Mrs. Eddye
Moss Blair, Vice President; Mrs.
Edith James McCray, Secretary;
Mrs. Dorothy Jackson Thompson,
Assistant Secretary; Edward
Robinson, Treasurer; Melton J.
Allen, Chaplain; Mrs. Ethel Jones
Ashe, Parliamentarian; Eddie T.
Lindsey, Chairman of Publicity.
The meeting was held only five
days prior to Homecoming which
was celebrated on October 31.
Plans are now underway for
a proposed dinner meeting with
Mr. Prince Jackson, Alumni
Secretary, being the guest
speaker for the occasion. This
meeting is expected to draw
every alumnus within the city
of Columbus and also nearby
cities. Thomas L. Vann, class of
'52, is chairman of the committee
on preparation.
Curtis P. Harris, also of the
class of '52, has been given the
responsibility of arranging a
basketball game between Sa-
vannah State College and Ala-
bama State College to be held
in Columbus Municipal Audi-
torium.
Other anticipated projects in-
clude the sponsoring of the Sa-
vannah State College Choral
Society in a concert at Spencer
High School and the granting
of an athletic scholarship to a
worthy senior athlete of Spencer
High.
The chapter is striving to at-
tain a total membership of
Atlanta Chapter Initiates
Membership Drive
The Atlanta Chapter under
the presidency of Arthur Rich-
ardson, "40", principal of Samuel
Howard Archer High School be-
gan its current year with a mem-
bership drive dinner in Atlanta.
The speaker for the occasion was
Prince Jackson, Jr., "49", Col-
lege Alumni Secretary, who was
masterfully introduced by
Charles Hubert, "42".
Mr. Jackson's address centered
mainly on the obligations of the
graduate to his Alma Mater and
the importance of organizing
alumni Chapters in the various
cities. He challenged the mem-
bers and potential members of
the chapter to make it the
strongest in the National As-
sociation. In attendance at the
meeting and giving challenging
remarks were L. D. Law, "31",
National Vice President, and
Wilton C. Scott, Executive Secre-
tary of National Alumni Associ-
ation of Colleges and Universi-
ties and Public Relations Di-
rector of the College.
Athens Chapter
Sets 1960 Plans
By Willie H. McBride, "49"
Athens Chapter President
Recently, the Athens Chapter
gave a dance for the teachers of
GTEA Region 4. This was an-
other one of the many great
achievements on the mounting
list of achievements of the
Chapter.
In the Spring, a Scholarship
Benefit Banquet will be held and
it is hoped that Dr. W. K. Payne
and other College dignitaries will
be present. Plans are being made
to have John Lawton, "38", Vice
President of the GTEA appear
as speaker for the occasion.
All members and prospective
members have been asked to pay
$1 per month from September,
1959 to June, 1960, making a
grand total of $10. This amount
will be divided as follows: $5 for
National Alumni Association
Scholarship; $1.50 for National
Alumni Association membership;
$1 for Homecoming; making a
total of $7.50 to be sent to the
National Alumni Association.
This will leave $2.50 for the local
Chapter.
The present members of the
Chapter feel that a monthly
payment of $1 will be more con-
venient for most people than a
lump sum payment of $10. If
you cannot attend the monthly
meetings and wish to pay your
dues, you may send them to the
president, W. H. McBride, 284
Plaza or Mrs. Emma Browning,
267 Plaza, Athens, Georgia.
The College is now publishing
an Alumni Quarterly and any
news that you have concerning
marriages, deaths, civic and pro-
fessional achievements of gradu-
ates and former students of the
College should be sent directly
to Prince Jackson, Jr., Alumni
Secretary at the College.
seventy (70). If that number is
achieved, the Columbus Chapter
of the Savannah State College
Alumni Association will become
one of the strongest organiza-
tions in the city of Columbus.

Contribute to Alumni Scholarship Fund
Ryals to Organize
Dublin Alumni
Timothy Ryals, "54", brilliant
business graduate has promised
Prince Jackson, Jr., College
Alumni Secre-
tary that he and
Roscoe Brower,
"53", will organ-
ize Dublin
Chapter of the
Savannah State
College National
Alumni Associa-
tion. Ryals
stated that there
were about 30
alumni in Laurens County and a
chapter there would work fine.
While at Savannah State,
Ryals established himself as one
of State's most outstanding stu-
dents. He was 1953-54 Student
Council President, 1954 "Man of
the Year," a member of the
Choral Society, p. member of
Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.
and a member of a host of other
organizations.
Since leaving State, he has re-
ceived the M.A. degree from New
York University in 1958.
agent
Knight President of
Washington Chapter
Raymond Knight, "53", is em-
ployed as an internal revenue
the Audit Division,
Baltimore Dis-
trict, of the U. S.
Internal Reve-
nue Department.
For the past
three years and
from Its in-
cipiency, he has
served as presi-
dent of the
Wash i n g t o n,
D. C. Chapter.
Under his administration, the
chapter has grown in member-
ship and has succeeded in carry-
ing out an active program for
the benefit of the College.
Among the many things accom-
plished by the Chapter were the
Alumni Banquet featuring Dr.
W. K. Payne as principal speaker,
the playing of host to Prince
Jackson, Jr., Alumni Secretary
and the hosting of L. D. Law,
National President. The chapter
has also contacted the Coca-Cola
Bottling Company through the
Moss Kendricks Public Relations
Organization for a scoreboard-
clock for the College's Athletic
Field.
The chapter has never failed
to send its share to the Alumni
Scholarship Fund. This past
June, the chapter gave $100 to
the College for securing National
Defense Loan money from the
government. As a result, the
government matched the $100
with $900 making $1,000 avail-
able to students at the College.
He has been succeeded as
president of the chapter by
James O. Thomas, "56", brilliant
chemist-mathematician of the
U. S. Patent Office. This insures
the chapter's continuous growth.
SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
fa wmm anopsia
Volume 1 — No. 2
SAVANNAH. GEORGIA
April. 1960
SSC Grad Awarded
National Science
Foundation Grant
Clifford E. Hardwick, III, "50",
has been awarded a National
Science Foundation award to
study Radiation
Biology at How-
ard University
this summer.
Hardwick has
taught at Ef-
fingham Train-
ing School, Guy-
ton, Georgia,
Savannah State
and is now
teaching at Al-
fred E. Beach High School in
Savannah.
He has been notified by the
University of Pittsburgh that the
degree of M. Litt in Biology will
be conferred on him this June.
* * .<
Grad Promoted
To Captain
The U. S. Air Force informed
Thomas Turner, "59", that he
had been promoted to the rank
of captain. The
promotion came
six months after
Captain Turner
received his
Bachelor' degree
in June.
Captain Turn-
1^- er entered Sa-
i . £Sji vannah State in
WsmSEBmsm September, 1948
as a freshman.
He played varsity football on the
great SSC team during the
Slocum-Harris-Turner era and
received great recognition for
his rough line play.
After entering the service be-
fore graduation he attended OCS
and was awarded the rank of
second lieutenant. In January
of 1959, the Air Force extended
him six months leave with pay
to complete his work at the Col-
lege wnere he graduated "cum
laude."
Captain Turner is married to
the former Emma Mayo, "52",
and is the father of two daugh-
ters. He is presently stationed at
Mountain Home Air Force Base,
Idaho.
Alumni to Present
"Get Acquainted Day"
The Savannah chapter will
present its annual "Get Ac-
quainted Day" program Sunday,
April 24, 1960, at 6 P.M. in
Meldrim Auditorium. This pro-
gram is designed to give current
students a working knowledge
of the Alumni Association and
make good alumni out of them.
Savannah State College to Participate
In National Defense Loan
Savannah State College will
participate again this year in the
National Defense Loan. Last
year, the College received $16,804
from the Federal Government to
match $1,867 the Colleg raised
from the alumni, senior classes
and firms in Savannah.
Each College can set up a loan
fund based on $20 per student.
On the basis of current enroll-
ment, Savannah State can set
up a fund of nearly $19,000. Of
this amount, the College will
have to raise $51,900 by June 30.
The College is relying heavily on
the alumni to assist in this
project. (Read "Notes from the
Editor's Desk" for further de-
tails.)
A Close Look at the Vice President
Willie H. McBride, Vice Presi-
dent of the Savannah State Col-
lege National Alumni Association
is doing a great job with the
Alumni in the Athens area.
Elected to the presidency of
the chapter from its incipiency,
he has never ceased to keep his
fellow alumni busy in carrying
out the non-glamorous but ex-
tremely important work for the
benefit of the College. Member-
ship in the Chapter has con-
tinued to grow and participation
in the Alumni Scholarship Fund
has always been above average.
The Chapter sponsored Miss
National Alumni" in 1957 and
was more than adequately repre-
sented by the beautiful Miss
Francie Howard, Miss Georgia
Brown and Mrs. Evelyn Wright.
The first alumni chapter
Banquet was started under his
administration and featured Dr.
W. K. Payne as principal speaker.
Several chapters are now having
banquets as a result of the
colossal success of the Athens
banquet.
While attending College, Mc-
Bride was active and vociferous
in his participation in many Col-
lege organizations and affairs.
A well known graduate of the
1949 class he has continued to
make great impressions on those
who know him.
With the constitution ending
the great administration of L. D.
Law, incumbent National Presi-
dent, the alumni is fortunate to
have a man of McBride's energy,
ability and experience to con-
tinue the great work of L. D.
Law.
He is married to the former
Frances Eberhart, "45", graduate
of SSC.

The Savannah State College Alumni Newsletter
The Savannah State Newsletter is published quarterly by
Savannah State College through the Office of Public Relations
and Alumni Affairs.

Prince Jackson, Jr., "49" Editor
Mrs. Lillie Allen Powell, "58" Editorial Assistant

Notes From the Editor's Desk
Recently, I have had the opportunity to talk with many
graduates throughout the State concerning the lack of interest
shown by many alumni in contributing to the Alumni Scholarship
Fund. The answer I received from most of them was, "I paid my
way. No one helped me and I do not feel obligated to help anyone."
I have thought about this and would like to submit the following
facts and figures to give you a picture of just what you paid for
your education.
According to the Annual Report of the University System of
Georgia submitted by the chairman of the Board of Regents of
the University System to the Governor in accordance with the pro-
visions of Section 32-129 of the Code of Georgia, it cost $523 per
full-time student per year during 1955-56 at Savannah State Col-
lege. Of this amount a full-time student paid $90 which is about
17.2% of the total cost. In 1956-57, it cost $584 per full-time student
and of this amount a full-time student paid $90 and this as about
15.4% of the total cost.
In 1957-58 it cost $708 per full-time student and of this a full-
time student paid $135 and this is about 19% of the total cost.
(Matriculation fee was raised from $30 to $45 per quarter 1957-58.)
You will note that student activities, health and other fees are not
included in the figures because the State does not provide for this
part of the College program and must be paid for by the students
directly. The above figures reveal that almost 85% of the cost of
a Savannah State grad is the taxpayer's responsibility. No one has
ever paid all of the cost of his education and should feel more than
glad to be able to help the unfortunate students who cannot pay
that 15-20% that the State requires for attendance ot our College.
Most of us today would not be College grads if the taxpayers were
as selfish as some of us.
If you really want to know whether you should contribute to
the Scholarship Fund, ask yourself the following questions:
1) Would I have my present job if I did not have my college
training?
2) Has my college training hindered me in my progress to
attain a higher living standard?
3) Am I more ignorant today than I was before I got my
college training?
4) Am I sorry that I went to Savannah State College?
If your answers to these questions are all "NO," then you are
obligated to send a contribution to the Scholarship Fund.
A recent conversation with Arthur Williams, "49", and Martha
Rawls Smith, "53", was most stimulating because they are going to
organize a chapter in Jesup on the second Wednesday in April. A
chapter in Jesup will be of much benefit to the College because
there are a number of grads there and should influence more Jesup
students to come our way. With Arthur and Martha (one of State's
greatest female athletes) paving the way, Jesup should become
one of our strongest chapters.
It is very encouraging to see a young grad push forward to
organize a chapter. Isaih Isom, "58", is doing just that in Valdosta,
Georgia, where more than 50 graduates are residing. Can't you
imagine how great that chapter could become if everyone co-
operated? Of course with Charles Hall, "49", and Maceo Home,
"50", backing Isaih, I know that Valdosta will be well represented
at the annual June National Alumni meeting.
Waldo Anderson, "49", of Woodbine has promised to reactivate
the chapter there. There are quite a few grads in Camden and
Charleton counties and an active organization would do the College
tremendous good. I do hope he will be successful.
Johnny Owensfl "50", is working toward reactivation of the
Screven County Alumni. Five years ago, this chapter was one of
the strongest in the state. If the grads in Screven County cooperate,
Johnny will have it back among our top chapters. I am looking
forward to a report from them in June.
Charles "Lump" Driskell, "47" (all SEAC fullback of 1946), and
Wilson J. Bryant, Jr., "51", brought greetings from Benjamin
Graham, "55" (President of Albany Chapter), and the Albany
Alumni. They said everyone there was not receiving news from the
College. I know this is true not only of Albany but of many other
place too. If you know anyone who did not get this newsletter
please send me his name and address and I will be glad to put it
in our files.
I represented the College recently at Tompkins High School in
Savannah. There were several other State grads on the program
and I must say that the manner in which Sadie Davis Steele, "47"
(Georgia's Teacher of the Year), presented "Teaching as a Career"
to the high school seniors will bring us many of those students
because anyone would be interested in a college that produced a

grad of her caliber. James E. Luten, "38", is principal.
Please remember that part of our scholarship money is used
in the National Defense Loan. For every dollar we provide, the U. S.
Government puts up nine dollars to match it. This means if we
can put up $2,000, the government will match it with $18,000 to
provide the College with $20,000 to lend to poor students. This is
one of the best opportunities Negroes have had since the emanci-
pation of our forefathers.
Please help by sending a $5 contribution to the Alumni Scholar-
ship Fund. If you can't send $5, send whatever you can because
each of your dollars will bring $9 from Uncle Sam. Pay your con-
tribution to your chapter. If you do not have a chapter in your
town, send it to the College. This contribution is deductible.
John Lawton, "38", will become president of GTEA this April
at the convention in Savannah. I believe he is the first grad to
become president since Homer Edwards, "31", of Athens. Let us
not spare the applause when he takes the gavel. He will need our
backing in the years to come. Let us give it to him.

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
Page 3
President's Message
Before the beginning of the next academic year Savannah State
College will occupy its new science and technical building. This
building representing a capital outlay of over $1,000,000.00 will pro-
vide for a new phase of education. Technological education on a
college level will be provided for students interested in entering
the field of industry. With the traditional fields nearing saturation
points, it is desirable that training and opportunities be provided
in the areas of demand and expansion. Students trained in the
various fields of technology will provide for the development of our
country and for higher individual income. Both of these are essential
to our national and personal welfare.
Alumni of the college are among the most important people to
assist in developing the program. They are in position to know and
contact the students who are able to do such programs. In every
community will be found boys who have the ability to do the
sciences, mathematics, and technological studies. The discovery
of students who can profit by such training represents a true
contribution to the country, the college, and the student. Con-
tributions of this type have many values that increase from year
to year. There are no limits to the increase in such values.
It is important that students for such a program be discovered
early enough for them to develop the proper background. They
should start preparing for such a program no later than the be-
ginning of their first year in high school. Along with English and
social studies, they should concentrate on mathematics and the
sciences. With programs including the above studies, they will
not be discouraged when these are extended, expanded, and ap-
plied in their college programs. Proper background and guidance
will make the pursuit of education in this area enjoyable and
rewarding.
Savannah State College is proud of the manner in which alumni
have increased their interest and contributions. Their records of
achievement, their financial contributions, and their good will have
been encouraging and challenging. It is to be expected that their
assistance in the development of this new program will be equally
as outstanding.
IBM Appoints SSC Grad
To $7,600 Position
Immediately after an inter-
view with Mr. R. L. Jerue, Jr.,
Experienced Recruiting Manager
of International
Business Ma-
chines Corpora-
tion of Pough-
keepsie, New
York, Clarence
Johnson, "53",
Math graduate
of Savannah
State College
was given a
$7,600 position.
He was given a choice of work-
ing as a Programmer in the Ad-
vanced Computational Systems
or as a Programmer in the De-
sign Automation. Mr. Jerue fur-
ther stated that IBM would
benefit from Johnson's associa-
tion with the corporation.
After leaving Savannah State
in June, 1953, Johnson joined the
Air Force where he attended five
schools in IBM programming. His
work in the Air Force was so
well thought of that Major Gen-
eral K. K. Tibbetts of the U. S.
Air Force wrote to General
Acheson, ". . . Also particularly
appreciated is the machine room
type assistance provided by your
Air Material Area to Tapeka Air
Force Depot during the data
processing period. The willing-
ness of A/3c Clarence Johnson
to assist at all times in the
operation of the computer was
most commendable."
"It is requested that all per-
sonnel of your Air Material Area
who participated in Project UAL,
especially A/3c Clarence Johnson
and the key Supply and Statis-
tical Service personnel who
assisted at the Tapeka process-
ing center, be appraised of this
letter of appreciation."
Basketball at Savannah State
Lawton Addresses
Statesboro Alumni
Addressing a packed room of
forty Savannah State graduates,
John Lawton, "39", principal of
Willow Hill Elementary School
and Vice President of the Geor-
gia Teachers and Education As-
sociation, stressed values in re-
lationship of graduates to Alma
Mater. Holding his audience
spellbound, Lawton drove home
the point of graduates' obliga-
tions to the College. He urged
each graduate to live up to these
obligations and work together
for a greater Savannah State.
Lawton was masterfully in-
troduced by Robert E. (Baldy)
Ellison, "50".
SSC Tigers Upset Favored
Florida A & M— 95-89
Savannah State's Little Davids
cut down the Goliaths of Florida
A and M 95-89 in a thrill-choked
seesaw ball game, which had the
geyser-belching tumult of a
volcano in Yellowstone National
Park. The Tigers in winning
played Jack In the Beanstalk as
they cut down the towering
Rattlers to their size in a
brilliantly played game in the
Morehouse College Gym.
It was vindication for the Sa-
vannah State quintet, which
had been aroused by charges
that it was an unworthy foe.
Pumped with go-go as a result
of press notices that SSC was
traveling in fast company, the
explosive Tigers made their
critics eat bitter crow.
Playing for keeps and with
fearless fortitude, SSC proved
that good little men can chop
down the largest Redwoods in
the forest. This they did with an
axe sharpened with moxie and
guts, in tumbling the favored
Rattlers from their lofty summit.
SSC had come to Atlanta
direct from the SEAC tourna-
ment at Albany State, where the
Tigers, defeated Claflin 72-70
and raced past Florida Normal
102-76. Florida A & M had
turned back Morris Brown 74-65
in the finals of the SIAC tourna-
ment at Tuskegee Institute.
Unawed by the Rattler prestige
the Tigers moved into combat
with an eagle-eye, springs in the
heels with a rebounding trade-
mark and clutch-savy which
paid off in dividends with gilt-
edge coupons.
Savannah State led Florida
A & M 26-24 with 10 minutes
gone and although the Tigers
trailed 49-43 at halftime, the
chant was already echoing the
toll for the Rattlers. The differ-
ence was the Rattlers could
never pull away, and were on
the embarrassing end of a 74-69
deficit with 10 minutes to play.
The outcome by then was never
in doubt. With eight minutes to
play Savannah State led 78-71.
The Tigers were ahead 84-78
and 3.53 on the clock and with
1.41 to go it was 91-85.
It was nip-and-tuck all the
way. The score was knotted at
14-14, 16-16, 18-18, 20-20, 22-22,
24-24, 26-26, 33-33, 34-34, 36-36
and 54-54, before Savannah
State made its winning bid. It
was Redell Walton and Ira Jack-
son, the All SEAC gamesters who
put the whammy on the Rattlers
with 13.0 to play in the second
period. Walton put the Tigers
ahead 55-55 with 13:20 to go
and his sizzler fired the oven
and put the sign of calamity
on the Rattlers.
Ira Jackson took scoring
honors for Savannah State's
climb the mountain to thriller
over FAMU with 31 points. Redell
Walton had 27 for second place
honors. Willie Tate was credited
with 17 points to take third place
in the scoring freebee.
Steve Kelly, Elijah McCrow,
Bob Rollins, and Al McLean were
the targeteers who muzzed the
skyscraper of FAMU.
Melvin Johnson was second with
13. Ruben Young was third with
12. Nat Barnes had 12.
James Stanley took high point
honors for the Rattlers with 27.
Savannah State Tigers Defeat
Morris Brown Wolverines
76-70
Savannah State, the Cin-
derella team of the first annual
District 6 NAIA Eastern Division
Play-off, rode a missile-style
chariot loaded with the com-
pulsion of desire, in racing over
Morris, 76-70, Saturday night in
the Morehouse College Gym-
nasium.
The victory gave the Tigers a
round trip ticket to the March
7-12 NAIA Championships in
Kansas City, Mo.
Savannah State, the Cin-
derella team from the South-
eastern Athletic Conference, had
proved its mettle in the opening
round by toppling the skyscrap-
ing Florida A & M Rattlers,
champions of the Southern
Intercollegiate Athletic Confer-
ence basketball tournament, 95-
85. This giant-killing feat, which
electrified a screaming crowd,
was vindication for the Sea-
siders, who had been charged
with being an unworthy foe.
Morris Brown went into Satur-
day's fray with a 22-5 record.
Two of these victories were
chalked up at the conference
tournament at the expense of
Alabama A and M, 91-68 and
Benedict, 76-65.
Savannah State turned back
Claflin 72-70 and Florida Normal
and Industrial Institute 102-76
in the SEAC tournament at
Albany State. The Lilliputian
SSC team came to Atlanta with
blood in its eye, and the fury
was quickly spent on Florida
A & M.
Angered by accusations that
SSC had been impotent against
SIAC quintets, the Tigers who
fired back that they had beaten
BMethune Cookman and Clark
College in visitation play,
charged Atlanta newspapers
with bias reporting in pinning
up clippings of stories that they
had lost each of the SIAC en-
counters. SSC had bowed to
Benedict 98-95, and 98-87 and
Allen University, last place
finisher in the SIAC, 110-107.
Edged on and playing with a
chip on their shoulders, the
SEAC haymakers were in the
mood for a whole lot wind-
milling and flailing against the
SIAC treetoppers. Against
Florida A & M, the Tigers
achieved this end by pulling the
Rattlers out of their full court
press and then jumped on a
fire engine and stampeded goal-
ward as though on a five alarm
castatrophe.
SSC 88 — Southwest Texas
College 101
Kansas City, Mo. (SNS)— Sa-
vannah State College lost a
heartfelt game to Southwest
Texas College 101 to 88. Savan-
nah State scored 19 points more
than any team Southwest Texas
played this season. The previous
nigh was Southwest Louisiana
65, Southwest Texas College 69.
Southwest Texas was compelled

It was nip and tuck all the
way. The halftime score was
Southwest Texas 49, Savannah
State 45. Led by their tourna-
ment hero last year Charles
Sharp, Southwest State found
Savannah State only two points
behind them in the closing
minutes of the game.
Savannah State College lost
their two aces, Redell Walton
and Ira Jackson, then Sharp was
able to find his mark. According
to most sports writers at the
game the game was an example
of a big good man beating a
very good little man. Southwest
Texas average height was six
foot four while Savannah State
is five feet 11%. This was South-
west Texas College's fourth ap-
pearance in the NAIA Tourna-
ment while this was Savannah's
first. Southwest Texas is com-
posed of an all senior team
against Savannah State's all
sophomores. The high point man
for the entire game was Redell
Walton of Savannah, 32, but he
was followed by Charles Sharp
with 31.
Southwest Texas forced to
alter their tact against Savan-
nah State College and Willken-
ing doing spectacular outside
shooting.
Southwest Texas is rated as
the second best team in the
NAIA against Tennessee State,
the NAIA champs. Last year
Texas only lost by 64 to 62 there-
fore Savannah State College sur-
prised its audience by keeping
within range of the fast moving
Texans. The previous night
Southwest Texas defeated Wis-
consin State College while Sa-
vannah State defeated Willa-
mette University of Oregon,
another highly regarded team.
During the past season South-
west Texas won 21 and lost three
and won the following cham-
pionships, the AAU Cotton Bowl
Tournament at Dallas, Texas,
and the Lone Star Conference
Championship.
In looking over the NAIA
records since 1951, Southwest
Texas has won eighteen tourna-
ment games and lost four.
Savannah State College fans
should be proud of their sopho-
more team which made its spec-
tacular showing in their first
NAIA National Tournament ap-
pearance with a one and one
record. Savannah State College
season record is 27 to four.
Savannah State Rips
Williamette, 85-71
Savannah State, shaking off
the early jitters of its first Na-
tional Tournament appearance,
stormed past Williamette Col-
lege of Oregon, 85-71, in the
opening round of the NAIA
Tournament Monday. Ahead by
two at the half, the Tigers broke
the game wide open after inter-
mission as Redell Walton and
Ira Jackson triggered a speedy,
sure offensive.

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
October, 1960
Homecoming Plans Set
Savannah State College will
square off with Morris College of
Sumter, South Carolina, October
15, Homecoming. It is hoped
that all alumni will return to
their alma mater that day to re-
new old acquaintances and cheer
the team on to victory. Many
activities are being planned. As
usual, the day will begin with
the parade, followed by the
game, the alumni meeting and
the Alumni Dance at the Coco-
nut Grove.
Dr. W. K. Payne, president, will
speak to the alumni and "Miss
National Alumni" will be pre-
sented along with the new slate
of officers. Willie McBride, na-
tional president, will preside at
the meeting. Prince Jackson, Jr.,
alumni secretary, will read some
very interesting letters to the
group that he received during
the past few months. Refresh-
ments will be served.
According to Frank Tharpe,
Chairman of the Homecoming
Committee and Marshal of the
Homecoming Parade, "A World
of Dreams" is the theme for this
year's homecoming celebration.
The theme was selected because
of its broadness and flexibility.
The parade will begin promptly
at 10 a.m.

Plans Complete For
Columbus Classic
Savannah State College will
clash with Fort Valley State Col-
lege, Saturday night, October 8,
1960. at 8 p.m., in what is hoped
to be the beginning of an Annual
Columbus Football Classic.
The game, originally scheduled
to be played in Savannah, was
transferred to Columbus because
of scholarship reasons (see Notes
From the Editor's Desk on Page
2). After learning of the Col-
lege's scholarship plight from
Prince Jackson, Jr. and Wilton
C. Scott, the Columbus Chapter
decided unanimously to put on
the game and pack the Colum-
bus Municipal Stadium.
Making lightning plans under
the leadership of Charles Du-
Vaul, Columbus Chapter Presi-
dent, it was not long before the
magnificent efforts began to
take shape. Committees were
formed and began to work im-
mediately. At this writing, a
"Miss Columbus Classic" contest
was being sponsored, a souvenir
program was being solicited,
alumni in other cities were being
contacted to assist in the distri-
bution of tickets, motorcades
from nearby cities were being
planned, a big dance after the
game, a great half-time show
featuring the Army Sentry Dogs
of Fort Benning, and weekly
planning meetings were being
held. Mr. DuVaul has requested
every graduate in the state to
converge on Columbus and make
this effort a gigantic success. A
parade will be held that after-
noon at 1:00 p.m. and if anyone
should get to Columbus on Fri-
day, October 7, Vernon Mitchell
has rented Club 837 to entertain
that night. Let all of us meet
in Columbus to back this effort.
Other officers of the chapter
are: Vice-president, Mrs. Eddy
M. Blair; Secretary, Mrs. Edith
J. McCray; Treasurer, Edward
Robinson; Chaplain, Milton J.
Allen. Edward Robinson is chair-
man of the Steering Committee;
Charles Thompson is chairman
of the Souvenir Booklet; Vernon
Mitchell is chairman of Housing
and Entertainment; Eddie Lind-
sey is publicity chairman; and
J. H. Smith is Parade Marshal.

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
October, 1960
The Savannah State College Alumni Newsletter
The Savannah State Newsletter is published quarterly by
Savannah State College through the Office of Public Relations and
Alumni Affairs.
Dr. William K. Payne President
Prince Jackson, Jr., '49 ...'. Editor

Mrs. Lillie Allen Powell, '58 Associate Editor
Wilton C. Scott Technical Advisor
Notes From the Editor's Desk
Several alumni have asked, "Why was the Fort Valley State-
Savannah State College Football Game transferred from Savannah
to Columbus? I will try to answer this question by giving some
information most alumni do not know but should know.
In 1953, after having the most disastrous football season (total
score, 452-6), the alumni of the College met with Dr. Payne and
promised to give more assistance to the College so that our football
team would never have another season like 1953. As a result, the
Alumni Scholarship Fund was born. We promised to raise $10,000
but were only able to get $2,400. Although we fell short, this $2,400
was $2,300 more than the alumni had given the year before. When
I returned to the College as a faculty member and Alumni Secretary
in 1955, the Alumni Scholarship Fund produced less than $500 that
year. It was that year we began to request businesses and industries
to contribute to the Alumni Scholarship Fund. In 1956, they gave
$2,150 of the $3,300 we gave to the College. In 1958, they gave $2,500
of the $3,600 we gave to the College, and last year they gave $3,500
of the $4,600 we gave to the College.
As of this writing, we have received less than $1,500 from busi-
nesses and industries this year. We have also received less than
$600 from our alumni. The reasons for this sudden collapse of aid
from businesses and industries can not be explained in this news-
letter but should be obvious to the reader if he is abreast of national
events. However, it should serve to tell most of us to wake up and
shoulder our responsibilities as graduates of Savannah State Col-
lege. Although apathy on our part is not the biggest reason for
businesses and industries deserting us, it must be looked upon with
great concern. Would you continue to help a poor mother whose
rich sons and daughters refused to help? Don't you think the above
figures should have been reversed? Do you think the above figures
justify the existence of at least 7,000 employed alumni? Do you
think that the meager amount of scholarship aid we have been
contributing to the College is adequate?
There are many graduates of our College who have never given
a dime to her upbuilding yet have used the name of the College to
reach the top. Somewhere, there are over 6,000 of these sons and
daughters. Yes, there are really less than 1,000 graduates who work
to push the College.
The answer to the question then is, the game has been changed
from Savannah to Columbus because of vastly inadequate scholar-
ship funds. It has been changed because most of Savannah State
Alumni have not grown to the point where they are willing to
support their alma mater. It has been changed because the College
must maintain a strong scholarship program in order to attract
top notch students. It has been changed because $5 per year is
too much money for Savannah State grads to give to help other
Negro boys and girls receive a College Education. But most of all,
it has be°n changed because we have pot GROWN UP as alumni.
I hope the question has been answered adequately.
The biggest reason for the desertion of the Alumni Scholarship
Fund by businesses and industries will be explained at the Home-
coming meeting.
Tigers Open Against
Edward Waters of
Jacksonville, Florida
With highly talented freshmen
who have been called by Robert
"Nancy Hanks" Slocum, the
"cream of the crop" and the vet-
eran players from last year, the
Savannah State Tigers are rated
to be 7 to 5 over a strong Ed-
ward Waters College team that
is virtually unchanged from last
year. The Tigers will roam in
Edward Waters territory, Jack-
sonville, Florida, October 1, 1960.
Showing improvement each
minute over last year's stellar
performances are Captain Elijah
McGraw, a powerful, fleet, sure-
handed end who has been called
the best since Curtis P. Harris,
and John Strong, one of the
leading ground gainers in the
Southeastern Atlantic Confer-
ence last season.
The forward wall has enough
beef to stop a freight train. Av-
eraging better than 200 pounds,
the line will be led by tackles
Floyd Walker, 270 pounds; Wen-
dell Mcintosh, 206 pounds; Eddie
Bell, 180 pounds; Charles Gaines,
191 pounds; guards, James Bow-
ens, 195 pounds; Duke Cum-
mings, 205 pounds; Eddie Tol-
bert, 190 pounds; and centers,
Calvin Roberts, 178 pounds, and
Benjamin Spann, 202 pounds.
The -h a If b ac ks average 180
pounds and the fullbacks aver-
age 190 pounds. All of this spells
TROUBLE for the Tigers' foes
this season.

An overflowing crowd packed Beach Hiah School Auditorium recently to witness
the "stepping down" of Wilton C. Scott as Supervisor of the Beach High Adult Center.
Scott has been succeeded by Robert Young, a 1938 graduate of Savannah State who was
also named principal of the Negro Vocational School in Savannah. Under the leadership
of Scott, the Center grew from a few to one of the largest Negro Centers in the South.
Under the leadership of the dynamic Robert Young, the continued growth of the Center
is a certainty. In the picture above, Young congratulates Scott.
Mr. Young holds a B.S. degree from Savannah State College and an M.S. degree
from Cornell University.
He entered the Chatham County school system in 1940 as an Agricultural teacher
ot Haven Home School and remained in that position until 1959, when he went to Alfred
E. Beach High School, assuming duties in the same capacity.
His early administrative offices included, Principal of the Pin Point Adult Night
School, Principal-teacher of the Arlington Vocational High School, Arlington, Georgia,
and Supervisor of the O.S.Y.A. National Defense Program.
Other affiliations and awards include: the Founding of the Montgomery Community
House. The project was dedicated in 1949. Awarded the Delaware Trophy by Savannah
State College Alumni Association in 1949 for outstanding achievement; Elected President
of Theta Chapter, Phi Delta Koppa Fraternity, Cornell University in 1952; Is listed in
Who's Who in American Education; Served as Chairman of Advisory and Planning Council
to Superintendent of Chatham County Public Schools; President of Chatham County
Teacher's Association, 1956-58; and in 1958 was chosen Chatham County Teacher of
the Year and Region 11 Teacher of the Year. Mr. Young is a member of the Montgomery
Baptist Church and Chairman of the Trustee Board.

Savannah State Alumni
In Sandersville to
Organize Chapter
Reverend Gilbert Dean and
Eddie Scott assured Prince Jack-
son, Jr., college alumni secretary,

The two grads stated that
there were more than fifty grads
in the area and the need for a
chapter was great. All alumni in
the Sandersville area are being
urged to watch for the call to
organize which probably will be
sent out in the next few weeks.

should be highly productive since

Desk.)

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE
May, 1961
SSC Math Gratis Receive
Key Appointments
Leroy Brown and Willie Eunice,
recent graduates of Savannah
State College were appointed to
key positions as
mathematicians
i n Washington,
D. C, by the
U. S. Depart-
ment of Civil
Service. Mr.
Brown's position
pays in excess
of $6,300 while
Mr. Eunice's position pays in ex-
cess of $5,500.
While at Savannah State both
men distinguished themselves as
outstanding students, not only in
the field of mathematics and
the physical
sciences, but
made great con-
tributions to
student life at
the College.
Both returned to
study the im-
mediate summer
following their
June graduation in order to take
advantage of math courses they
were not able to get as under-
graduates. As a result of having
so much mathematics on their
transcripts, the U. S. Govern-
ment was very interested in
giving them key appointments.
Prior to their new jobs, Mr.
Brown was a faculty member of
Tompkins High School, Savan-
nah, and Mr. Eunice was a
faculty member of Center High
School, Waycross.
Pictured above are (left) Miss Lonnye
L. Adams and (right) Miss Deiora Dean.
Both are 1956 Business Administration
graduates of the College. Hailing from
Cordele, they are employed on the staff
of the Florida A & M University, Talla-
hassee, Florida.

Prince Jackson, Jr., College Alumni Secretary, has disclosed that Robert E. Blakeney,
principal of Waynesboro High and Industrial School ond o member of the Class of 1931
will deliver the Annual Alumni Banquet Address on Saturday, June 3, 1961 at 8:00 p.m.
Mr. Blakeney has distinguished himself as one of Savannah State's most outstanding
alumnus and is recognized as a key principal in the State of Georgia. He has played
an important role in soliciting Alumni Scholarship Funds in the Waynesboro area. As a
member of the Alumni Roads Committee, he was instrumental in getting the State Highway
Department to look upon the College favorably.
Campbell Is President of
Elementary Principals
R. W. Campbell, 1938 graduate
and principal of Edward John-
son Junior High School, Brooklet,
Georgia, is now
serving as Presi-
dent of the Ele-
mentary Princi-
pals Association.
He recently at-
tended a na-
tional conven-
tion in Atlantic
City, New Jersey.
Mr. Campbell has always been
outstanding in all of his en-
deavors. As vocational agricul-
tur teacher, he worked tireless in
developing the young farmers of
Bulloch County. All of his spare
time was spent outside working
with the youth of Statesboro to
help them develop into fine men
and women. He organized the
Bulloch County Negro Chamber
of Commerce and the swimming
pool, telephones, recreation
center and many other improve-
ments for Negroes in Bulloch
County were direct results of his
work in the Chamber as Execu-
tive Secretary. As an athletic
official over the years, he always
instilled good sportsmanship in
young people. In 1954, he became
president of the Bulloch County
Negro Teachers Association and
immediately made it into one of
the smoothest working organiza-
tions in the State.
Since becoming principal of
Edward Johnson, his work-day

Rev. William T. Parker
Honored in Princeton
The Reverend Dr. William T.
Parker, this past October,
marked 30 years as pastor of the
First Baptist Church in Prince-
ton, New Jersey.
Before going to Princeton, Dr.
Parker was pastor of Mount
Ararat Baptist Church at
Rutherford, N. J. for four years.
Prior to that, he was pastor of
the Second Baptist Church at
LeRoy, N. Y. for six years.
In a tribute to Dr. Parker, his
members said, "Rev. Parker has
been a wonderful pastor and a
great leader. He has won the
recognition as serving longer
than any pastor called to this
Church, which is a great credit
to him. His many accomplish-
ments will always be remembered
for many years to come. He has
proven his love and devotion
with a great desire to do what
was best. His quiet and unassum-
ing way in which he has con-
ducted himself in the church and
community has been very im-
pressive."
In a tribute to Mrs. Parker, it
was said, "Congratulations and
best wishes to our pastor's com-
panion, Mrs. Daisy Parker, who
has shared with him thirty fruit-
ful years.
"We extend to her our ap-
preciation for her many years
of service and wish for her many
more happy and prosperous
years."

Notes From the Editor's Desk
Alumni Scholarship Fund in Dire
Need of One Thousand Donors
In 1953-54 a group of Savannah State College graduates set out
to raise $10,000 for scholarships at the College. The plan was simply
to get at least 1,000 graduates who loved and cared enough about
the College to contribute $10.00 each to the Alumni Scholarship
Fund. The plan was only 24% successful since only 240 graduates
contributed $10.00 for a total of $2,400.00. The following year, the
number who contributed was only 70 and at a meeting of the Na-
tional Alumni Associatipn in 1956, it was decided to ask each gradu-
ate to contribute $5.00 instead of $10.00 because it was the prevailing
opinion that more graduates would participate. Since that time,
we have only been able to get an average of 200 graduates per year
to participate. The rest of our scholarship funds have been given
by the white merchants and business men of Savannah. However,
their contributions dropped significantly last year. After reading
several letters from the merchants, I have reasons to believe we
can expect even less support from them this year.
All of this simply means that more of us must give in the future.
Is $5.00 per year for scholarship too much? From inquiries I receive
from the U. S. Department of Internal Revenue, I can only say that
I wish we were getting one-tenth of what some of our graduates
claim on their income tax forms. Apparently, $5.00 isn't much by
today's standard. It costs a student $234.00 per school year just for
metriculation and fees. It would take 47 donors just to award a
student one year's fees. That is why it is important that more of
us must give.
Beginning with this issue of the Newsletter, names of persons
who contribute will be published. If there is an alumni chapter in
your city, make your contribution through it. If not, make your
check or money order payable to Alumni Scholarship Fund, and
send it to Prince Jackson, Jr., at the College. All persons who con-
tribute through chapters will be listed in the June issue right after
chapter reports are in. The list you see on this page are those who
have contributed for this school year. Please send your contribution
early in May so that your name may be listed in the May issue of
the Alumni Bulletin. Please give us your assistance in this matter.
It is of vital importance to the Alumni.
THE ALUMNI SCHOLARSHIP FUND IS IN DIRE NEED OF
1,000 DONORS.

Alumni News
The Statesboro Chapter of the
Savannah State College National
Alumni Association has been
very active during the year. Mrs.
Etheleen Tolbert, president, has
had fine cooperation in carrying
out her broad program.
A "Stay At Home Tea" has
been planned and according to
the committee, Mesdames Mabel
Garbett, Gertrude Everett, Julia
the program should be a smash-
ing success.
The keynote in the Chapter's
success, however, has been in the
individual efforts put forth by
the members. Mrs. Grace Sim-
mons has been more than dutiful
in getting out the programs.
Mrs. Frankie Stevens and Mrs.
Pearl Bellinger have done a
wonderful job in providing the
music for the meetings. Mrs.
Geraldine Campbell has been
ideal in handling the programs
and Mrs. Mary Jackson has been
a great Secretary.
Mrs. Pearl Bellinger was in
charge of the choral students in
the Student Day meet held at
Lyons, Georgia.
Mrs. Pricilla Tremble is on the
Resolutions Committee of the
Bulloch County Teachers Associ-
ation.
Mr. Crawford Talbert was a
delegate to the GTEA State
meeting in Atlanta.
Behind the alumni in Bulloch
County and pushing hard in the
background is Mrs. Marie Martin,
Jeanes Supervisor. In every en-
deavor, she has been the power-
house. This alone has been re-
sponsible for much of the
Chapter's success. Mrs. Martin
is also serving as secretary of
the Savannah State College Na-
tional Alumni Association.
The most widely known mem-
ber of the chapter, John Lawton,
president of the Georgia Teach-
ers and Education Association,
presided in a most forceful
manner at the recent State
meeting in Atlanta. Mr. Lawton's
name has been mentioned as a
possible successor of Mr. L. H.
Pitts, Executive Secretary.
