DEDICATION

We have grown to love his vivacious personality, his gallant walk, his friendly smile, and his words of praise, because they are so characteristic of him. His warm interest in each individual student, his deep sincerity in his work, his unselfish desire to share his

knowledge with others, and his willingness to help those in need are a fine tribute to his profession. To show our deep respect, appreciation, and love we dedi- cate the 1963 OLIVE LEAVES to . . .

DARKLY

we viewed our surroundings during the first few weeks of this new experience of ours called "college life." We came, amateurs in the art of education, with our vision impaired by lack of knowledge and lack of self- confidence. We were received into the open arms and open hearts of our faculty and administration whom we have come to view . . .

GETTING AC- QUAINTED as they unpack and get set- tled in their new "home" are Judith I pock, Carolyn Stocks, Ethel Smith, and Shirley Garris.

FACULTY ADVISERS

help ease the many prob- lems that confront new students. Mr. Michael Pelt, adviser to this group, answers questions con- cerning various phases of college life. Left to right are Winnifred Averett, Judith Dudley, Adrian Grubbs, Lee Jernigan, Randall Jones, Carolyn Fitzgerald, and Barbara Becton.

NEW STUDENTS listen intently to Miss Melton as she gives directions on how to take their place- ment exams.

REGISTRATION for the fall semester presents problems for students and faculty alike. Here Profes- sor Joseph Vann and George Harrison strive to find a satisfactory sched- ule for George.

CONVOCATION SPEAK- ER Dr. Leo Jenkins (cen- ter), President of East Car- olina College, is shown with Dr. Roy O'Donnell (left), Dean of Mount Ol- ive Junior College, and Dr. Burkette Raper, President of the College, just before the Convocation exercises on September 17. Dr. Jenkins opened his ad- dress by congratulating the College on its rapid and meritorious progress in the field of education. He challenged the stu- dents to learn to think for themselves in order that they might gain the most from their college ex- perience.

PING PONG CHAMPION

George Mozingo displays the skill which helped him to win the championship in the Ping Pong Intramural Competition. Each year the College's intra- mural program is commenced by this competition among our students. Although the College does not as yet offer an inter- collegiate athletic program, our students are not deprived of participating in a whole- some recreational program. STUDYING is an important phase in any student's life. Time and place do not seem to be important as Lois Brinson listens attentively to Howard Bryan's explanation of a gram- mar rule.

THE STUDENT GOVERN- MENT ASSOCIATION, now in

its tenth year, has earned the loyal support and trust of the student body, because of its successful endeavor to actively represent the individual stu- dent.

Under the leadership of its ex- ecutive committee, the Student Government Association dis- charges a variety of discipli- nary and administrative func- tions and is responsible for the distribution of funds provided for student activities. These duties are effectively adminis- tered through a number of smaller bodies.

PRESIDENT— Howard Bryan

S.G.A. OFFICERS were instal- led by Dean Roy C. O'Donnell during a special chapel pro- gram. From left to right are Dean O'Donnell; Howard Bry- an, president; Lois Brinson, secretary; Pat Barefoot, treas- urer; and Adrian Grubbs, vice- president.

S.G.A. FUNDS are desig- nated to be used by the various clubs and organi- zations on campus by the Finance Comm ittee (above). The solution to the problem of finding a workable and balanced budget is not an easy one as can be testified by committee members (be- ginning left) Adrian Grubbs, Howard Bryan, Pat Barefoot, and Lois Brinson.

CLASS SPEAKERS are Sophomore Anne Harri- son (right) and Freshman Frances AJbertson (left). The class speakers are elected by popular vote of their respective classes and act as official repre- sentatives for their classes at all formal occasions. FACULTY ADVISER Professor Joseph M.

HONOR COUNCIL members are, seated (left to right), Lois Brinson, Pat Barefoot, Anne Harrison, Joan West- brook, and Carole Malone. Standing are Billy Troutman, Adrian Grubbs, Earl Cowan, and Howard Bryan. Mount Olive Junior College operates on the principle that growth in character and personality comes only through self-direction and self-control under Christian guidance. Our Honor System is designed to place moral responsibility upon the individual student. The Honor System is enforced by three bodies the Honor Council, the Men's Judiciary Council, and the Women's Judiciary Council. The highest of these judicial councils, the Honor Council, is composed of the executive officers of the S.G.A. and representatives from each class, elected by the members of each class and apportioned on the basis of one representative for each twenty-five students or part thereof. All serious offenses concerning the in- fraction of the College Constitution, its rules of conduct, and the usages of the Student Government Association come under the jurisdiction of the Honor Council.

COLLEGE MARSHALS are chosen by a faculty committee upon the basis of evidence of natural leadership, agree- able personality, attractive appearance, sincere attitude toward studies, at least a "C" average, and a whole- some attitude toward college and classmates. They serve at Convocation, Founder's Day, Commencement, and other school functions which need their assistance. Those honored by the faculty committee to serve as Marshals for 1962-63 are beginning left (seated) Judith Dudley and Marjorie Herring. Standing are Lois Brinson, Chief Howard Bryan, and Melissa McCoy.

EUREKA SOCIETY new

members are (seated) Mary Lois Neel, Ann Pugh, and Linda Worth- ington. Standing are Me- lissa McCoy and Howard Bryan. Not pictured are Ruth Cotton Clark, Faye Dutton Carter, Douglas Outlaw, and Mrs. Anne Mozingo Waters. Eureka Society membership is by election of the society and is limited to liberal arts students. The Eureka Society is an honorary scholastic society com- posed of second-year stu- dents who have an aver- age of 2.0 with no grade lower than a "C" and whose leadership and service to the Col lege merit special recognition. The name of the Eureka Society commemorates old Eureka College, a Free Will Baptist institution which was destroyed by fire in the early nineteen thirties.

DEAN ROY O'DONNELL, adviser to the Eureka So- ciety, explains to new members the purpose of the society and the honor of membership.

CUBAN CRISIS causes intense concern and anxiety among these students. They keep well abreast with the latest developments in the tense world situa- tion by watching the news on television. Ray Fisher and Billy Creech lie on the floor to avoid blocking the view of their fellow students. ALUMNI OFFICERS, during a November meeting at the College, make plans for raising $1,000 for the College building fund. Pictured from left are Edward Miles, vice-president; Andrew Hill, president; Margaret Turner, cor- responding secretary; Deanye Lee, treasurer; and Linda Cherry, re- cording secretary. BASKETBALL has charmed Craig Albert- son, James Hunnings, Ed Jones, Jack Cox, Thomas DuPree, and Randall Callahan from the warmth of the in- side into the brisk cold of the November air. They keep warm, how- ever, as they all jump for the rebound.

M. 0. J. C. STARS OF 1963 is the theme of the float sponsored by the Student Government Association of the College in the Mount Olive Christmas parade. The "stars" are (left to right) Pat Barefoot, treasurer of S.G.A.; Lois Brinson, secretary of S.G.A.; Joan Westbrook, president of Youth Fellowship; Judy Dudley, president of the French Club; and Melissa Mc- Coy, co-editor of OLIVE LEAVES.

SCIENCE LECTURE speaker, Dr. E. A. Haseley, is a research scientist for DuPont in Kin- ston. A program of science lectures is sponsored each year by the Henderson Science Club and the Eastern North Carolina Section of the American Chemical Society. High school stu- dents from the immediate area joined our science students for this special four-hour pro- gram on November 5. A group of enthusiastic young "scientists" appear to comprehend Dr. Haseley's explanation of a diagram which aids his discussion of "The Nature of the Chem- ical Bond."

MUSIC SCHOLARSHIPS are awarded by the College to students who have outstanding mu- sical abilities. Recipients of voice scholarships for 1 962-63 are (seated) Melissa McCoy and (standing, beginning left) Howard Bryan, Adrian Grubbs, and Linda Worthington. Miss Mc- Coy also received a piano scholarship in recognition of her outstanding services as accom- panist to the College chorus.

FOUNDER'S DAY SPEAKER,

Dr. Arthur D. Wenger, had no big problem getting acquainted with students. He must have made some witty statement to students Carolyn Fitzgerald, Joe Moses, Adrian Grubbs, Thomas DuPree, Virginia O'Quinn, and Flora Hines. DR. ARTHUR D. WENGER (left), is introduced by Dr. Bur- kette Raper. Dr. Wenger, Pres- ident of Atlantic Christian Col- lege, spoke on the topic "The Distinctive Role of the Church- Related College" in observance of the eleventh anniversary of the founding of Mount Olive College.

AN INFORMAL TEA is given, following the Founder's Day ceremonies in honor of the wives of the College Board of Directors. Clockwise, Mrs. H. L. Spivey, Mrs. R. N. Hinnant, Mrs. Leopold Grantham, Mrs. E. H. Holton, Mrs. Ralph Mor- ris, Mrs. J. C. Moye, Mrs. C. L. Patrick, and Mrs. Burkette Ra- per seem to be thoroughly en- joying the tea and the com- pany.

STUDENT LIFE comes inside dur- ing the cold weeks just before Christmas. Students congregate around the book lockers, the coat racks, the bulletin boards, and in the lounge. If you are looking for someone, just search out these places and you'll be sure to find him. Reading the announcements on the bulletin board is Linda Price, while Joan Yelverton and Shirley Lamm carry on a conver- sation with Ed Jones. On the other side of the hall Mary Lois Neel looks on as gentleman Joe Moses assists Linda Pringle with her coat.

THE FACULTY CHRISTMAS PARTY is held in the home of Dean and Mrs. Roy C. O'Donnell. With Dean and Mrs. O'Donnell are Mrs. Burkette Raper, serving punch, Mrs. William Boyette and Mr. Boyette, Mrs. Douglas Bar- nett and Mr. Barnett. CHRISTMAS TREE ornaments are carefully placed upon the Christ- mas tree by Tanya Kelly. Tanya is helping in the busy prepara- tions for the dorm Christmas Par- ty and for all the other many ac- tivities which bring in the Yule- tide Season.

CHRISTMAS PRESENTS from friends and classmates bring to these girls many different emo- tions. Back row beginning left, Delores Askew seems surprised, Gail Blanchard happy, Faye Tay- lor pleased, Faye Britt tickled, Judy B o s t ic appreciative, Pat Barefoot excited, and Anita Wal- ker purely delighted. The scene of this merriment is the annual Christmas Party in the College Dorm.

CHESS swept the col- lege before Christmas. Engrossed in this game (beginning left) are George Zaytoun, Ray Fisher, Bill Futch, Larry Justice, Jimmie Sanders, Mary Lou Reynolds, Judy Bostic, Barbara Wilmer, and Elaine Phillips. CHRISTMAS SHOP- PING results in full hands, empty pockets, and glad hearts. Jo Ann Kelly, Pat Barefoot, Shelton Price, Helen Steele, and James Ray Weeks return home laden with wonderful surprises for their friends and loved ones. CAROLING is a tradi- tional activity of the Yuletide Season. Mem- bers of the College Chorus visit various homes sharing with these families their me- lodious voices and cheerful spirits.

CHRISTMAS PARTY GUESTS

wait with anticipation as Joan Westbrook, one of the five can- didates for Campus Queen, is e s c or t e d to the stage by Hughes Little.

EACH CANDIDATE is asked a question prior to the crowning of the new Campus Queen. It seems that Master of Cere- monies Howard Bryan has presented candidate Melissa McCoy with a very thought- provoking auestion. CAMPUS QUEEN, lovely Joan Westbrook, beams radiantly as Linda Pringle, Campus Queen for 1962, places the crown on her head. The title of Campus Queen is bestowed upon the lucky girl who is selected by a popular vote of the entire stu- dent body.

QUEEN JOAN'S COURT possesses an air of serene royalty and graciousness. The charming members of the court are (left to right) Patricia Barefoot, Anne Harrison, Queen Joan Westbrook, Melissa McCoy, and Lois Brinson. ENTERTAINMENT for our Queen and her Court is provided by her many talented classmates. With Queen Joan are (beginning left) Thomas Harper, Larry Malone, Howard Bryan, and Jimmie Sanders. These "artists" pre- sented a skit about Christmas for the pleasure of her Majesty. SINGING a duet is not what Anne Harrison, a member of the Campus Queen Court, and George Harrison, her escort, are doing. They're just posing for the photographer who forgot to tell them to say "cheese".

ROUND TABLE DIS- CUSSION GROUPS are

often formed by stu- dents as they put their knowledge together in hopes of learning more when exam time ap- proaches. Shown in an earnest discussion of English Literature are a group of the sopho- mores.

PRIVATE STUDY finds an ideal setting in the library. Engrossed in learning the difference between "mitosis" and "meiosis", S h e I t o n Price concentrates on his Botany notes. Be- hind She 1 1 o n, Anne Heath uses the una- bridged dictionary to aid her in her search for a more adequate understanding of vo- cabulary.

STUDYING comes easy for some people. All they have to do is spend the night with their books. Ann Pugh (below) does just this. On the eve of a big French test, she takes her books to bed with her!

GRADES are the meas- uring sticks which eval- uate in q.p.'s and se- mester hours how much we have reaped from our earnest ordeals with our books and our professors. Many stu- dents regard the small white report slips with disappointment and shame while others view them with satis- faction. Beginning left, Hilda Tyndall, Jimmy Smith, Benny Smith, Larry Thornton, Billy Tadlock, and Virginia Miller share their suc- cesses and failures.

RADIOLOGICAL MON- ITORING techniques are taught to members of the chemistry class through the courtesy of the Local Civil Defense Department. Mrs. Lo- relle Martin, instructor, explains details of the monitoring equipment to (beginning left) Lar- ry M a I o n e , Bobby Goodrich, Bill Rogers, and Clay Scott.

A SCHOOL TRUCK is a gift of Mr. Carlyle Taylor of Snow Hill. Upon learning that the College was in need of a truck, Mr. Taylor gave this one. This act of benevolence is deeply appreciated by the College, especially Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, Mr. Ed- ward Miles. Above, Mr. Miles is getting ready to take the truck on a test run. LIBRARIANS Mrs. Mildred Councill (left), Mount Olive College, and Miss Emily Barks- dale, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, confer on methods of raising the base's library standards to meet junior col- lege requirements. Mrs. Coun- cill has nursed the Mount Olive College Library from a few hundred books, none of which were catalogued, to a 9,000 volume library in a period of only eight years.

NEW STUDENTS for

the spring semester re- ceive a warm welcome to Mount Olive College from Howard Bryan, (extreme left) president of the Student Govern- ment Association and Lee Malpass, (extreme right) co-editor of the Yearbook. With How- ard and Lee are (begin- ning left) Victor Man- nio, Lloyd Arneach, Shirley Lamm, and Walter Cannon.

CANDID CAMERA visits the Annual Staff. Members of the staff spent their semester break at school working on their pet hobby, the OLIVE LEAVES.

Lois Brinson (left) tries to write copy in spite of the annoy- ance of Lee Malpass. Lee is always telling jokes that aren't really funny, but they're so unfunny that you just have to laugh.

Melissa McCoy and Judith Bissette (below left) pull off their shoes and get down to some real work. Judith shows Melissa one of her more amusing creations. "Judith, you know you can't put that in the Yearbook!" "Let me out!" is the cry of the Annual Staff (below right) after four long days and nights of work, work, and more work. Mrs. Martin seems to have forgotten and left a crack in the door. Escapees (beginning bottom) are Lee Malpass, Judith Bissette, Linda Pringle, Lois Brinson, and Melissa McCoy.

BASEBALL has come to Mount Olive College mainly through the efforts of Ray Scarborough, citizen of Mount Olive. This outstanding athlete has shown an active in- terest in getting a good baseball program for the College. Beginning left Bill Rogers, Mark Godwin, Lee Jernigan, and Victor Corbett are shown with Mr. Scarborough (front right) as they begin work on the new baseball diamond for the College.

HARD WORK will be

rewarded by many hours of fun and enjoy- ment for these students who are helping to clear a site for their new baseball diamond.

BILL FUTCH, social science ma- jor, is a ministerial student, active in the Men's Judiciary Council and Kappa Chi.

MELISSA McCOY, a primary ed- ucation major, is a member of the Eureka Society, a Marshal, and Co-Editor of OLIVE LEAVES.

ANN PUGH, elementary education ma- jor, is a member of the Women's Judici- ary Council, Yearbook Staff, and the Eureka Society.

MARY LOIS NEEL, a primary edu- cation major, is a member of the Eureka Society and the Yearbook Staff.

36

OUTSTANDING SOPHOMORES are

chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, citizenship, and partici- pation in extra-curricular activities. OLIVE LEAVES '63 honors these eight sophomore students. Their services to the College and their character have gained for them the respect and admiration of their fel- low students and of the College Fac- ulty and Administration. We feel that the indelible imprint these stu- dents have made has created a wor- thy heritage for future students. All students worthy of this honor can- not be recognized in this space, but we do honor these eight.

LARRY MALONE, a political science major, is a member of the Honor Council and the As- sistant Editor of OLIVE LEAVES.

LINDA WORTHINGTON, tal- ented soloist, is a member of the Yearbook Staff, Women's Judic- iary Council, and the Eureka So- ciety.

JUDITH BISSETTE, is active in Mission- ary Prayer Band and Youth Fellowship as well as Business Manager of OLIVE LEAVES.

HOWARD BRYAN, President of the SGA and Chief Marshal, is a member of the Eureka Society and the Honor Council.

37

YOUTH FELLOWSHIP

includes many interest- ing people and activi- ties in its weekly club programs. The Crafts- man Quartet, a group of gospel singers, en- tertained the club members with a splen- did musical program. This was perhaps the most popular program of the year. Following the program Shirley Garris and James Spell enjoy each other's com- pany over punch and cookies as other mem- bers in the background socialize.

PHI BETA LAMBDA sponsors delegates to the state convention of Future Business Lead- ers of America held in Durham each year. To finance their delega- tion, members of the club sell College stationery and College emblems. Patronizer Jasper Cowan buys a box of stationery from Betty Jo Bennett as other club members Glenn Fields, Gayle McClenny, and Nellie Waters take note of the business trans- action.

STUDENT GOVERN- MENT ASSOCIATION meeting is led by vice- president Adrian Grubbs. The S. G. A., whose membership in- cludes the entire stu- dent body, holds monthly meetings to allow the students to voice their opinions on matters concerning them or the College, to transact the business of the organization, and to make announce- ments of general inter- est to the students.

FRENCH CLUB members view scenes of France shown to them by Diane Serotta. As is evi- dent by the entrancement of the students, the programs pre- sented at the monthly meet- ings of the club are always in- teresting and educational. CAMPUS IMPROVEMENT CONFERENCES under the leadership of Dr. Raper are held with different groups of students to give them the op- portunity to air their griev- ances and make their sugges- tions for making Mount Olive College a better place in which to live and study. Dr. Raper has expressed his desire that Mount Olive College make the greatest contributions possible to the fullest development of each student. Discussing the social life offered by the Col- lege with Dr. Raper are lone Newton, Betty Jo Bennett, Anne Harrison, Jo Ann Kelly, and Helen Steele, residents of the Carroll House. BOOKSTORE SUPERVISOR Ed Miles (left) instructs assistants Bill Rogers (center) and How- ard Bryan in the act of selling dictionaries. The stu- dent assistants explain to Mr. Miles that the law of supply and demand (the supply of books to students and then the demand of their money) gov- erns a business such as this and that a sales talk is really not necessary.

VALENTINE PARTY proves to be the riot of the year as campus "he-men" portray the rolls of beautiful con- testants in the "Queen of Hearts" contest. Escorted by petite females, the contestants certainly put forth everything they had to be success- ful in the contest emceed by Jimmy Webster. A most hilarious program was presented for the pleasure of the Queen and her court.

STAGE FRIGHT (above) certainly isn't a problem with these "beauties." Mr. Perret (extreme right) expresses his appreciation of the original beauty of "Queen of Hearts" contestants (beginning left) Ed Jones, Huey Little, and Gordon Gibbs.

THE LINE-UP of "beauties" con- sists of beginning left Erick Min- schew, Gordon Gibbs, Ed Jones, and outgoing Queen Carlton Col- lins. Escorts are beginning left Linda Pringle, Ethel Smith, Anne Harrison, and Barbara Davis "LOVER'S BY NIGHT, strangers by day," Ben Joe Staton and Ath- el Stone pantomime to the nar- ration of Kirk Cutler as lovelies Carlton Collins and Billy Creech look on. "Miss Staton" has to re- move those sexy sunglasses to see how to light her lover's cigarette.

40

"JOHN" (Barbara Wilmer) consoles the grief-stricken "Marcia" (Larry Malone) in a pantomine skit performed for Queen Carlton. We wonder if "Marcia's" grief re- sults from the fact that "she" ran out of Gillette Blue-Blades just before the show. THE CAN CAN is ably performed by out- going Queen Carlton Collins and "her" chorus line of dashing "belles" (beginning left) Victor Corbett, James Raynor, Floyd Brown, and James Spell. "Miss Legs" Lit- tle, Queen of Hearts contestant, is spell- bound with envy of all those beautiful legs. "HEY PAULA," the popular song about young lovers, is appropriately pantomimed by Carole Malone and Ronnie Oliver who did an outstanding job.

REFRESHMENTS served by Marcia Webb and Elaine Phillips are a welcomed relief for Ronnie Oliver and Bobby Goodrich after an hour of hard laughing.

A SCIENCE FIELD TRIP to the

Laboratories at N. C. State Col- lege is enjoyed by members of the Henderson Science Club. One of the many activities of the club is making trips suchas this one to different places of special scientific interest.

SPIRITUAL EMPHASIS WEEK had Rev. Charles Wil- liams, Presbyterian minister, who produced many thought- provoking questions among his discussion group, using as his topic "Movements in Protest- ant Theology." This group is one of three which discussed many vital questions concern- ing religion in our modern world.

CLOSING SERVICES of Spirit- ual Emphasis Week are held at Daly's Chapel Free Will Bap- tist Church. Following the morning worship service, a de- licious picnic-style lunch was served by the ladies of the host church. Although the rains came, the students attended the religious services and en- joyed lunch that followed. They are seen boardinq the activity bus to travel to Daly's Chapel Church.

FRESHMAN SOPHOMORE BANQUET was held at the Goldsboro Country Club. Dates with lovely party dresses, new hair styles, and beautiful cor- sages were picked up by their formally attired escorts to at- tend the annual affair. Left, James Ray Adams picks up date Judy Bissette. The Fresh- man-Sophomore is an annual affair given by the Freshman Class in honor of the Sopho- more Class. The theme of this year's banquet was "The Big Top." The club was decorated in the manner of a huge circus tent with many balloons and clown faces. At the door we were greeted by a papier mache elephant. Entertainment was in the form of circus and side show acts.

RING MASTER, Bob Tillman, presides over the "Big Top" ac- tivities including jokes, enter- tainment, and special guests. The delightful program was thoroughly enjoyed by faculty and students alike. Bob and other members of the "circus" are to be commended on a job well performed.

GUEST SPEAKER for the Fresh- man-Sophomore Banquet was John A. Wilkinson, an attor- ney from Washington, N. C. Mr. Wilkinson presented a most enjoyable and entertain- ing address to the banquet guests. With Mr. Wilkinson (standing) at the speaker's ta- ble are (beginning left) Dr. Roy O'Donnell, Acting Presi- dent of the College; Mrs. O'Donnell; and Howard Bryan, Freshman Class Speaker. THE KENNEY KIDS, Joyce Kenney, Sue Kenney, and Mal- colm Duff, gave their version of "That Little Feeling Called Love."

MOUNT OLIVE COLLEGE'S in- terpretation of Ferrante and Teicher are Professor Joseph Vann and Professor Donald Becker. Mr. Vann at the piano and Mr. Becker on the sax dis- played their musical talents gracefully with their rendition of "Concerto in B-Flat." We didn't know we had such tal- ent among our faculty! "MAKE YOURSELF COM FORTABLE" was the name of the hilarious skit enacted by Ben Joe Staton, Athel Stone, and Norman Russell. "Romeo" Stone appears to be anything but comfortable as "Janie" Russell confronts him with those forward passes. CHARACTERS in the "U. R. Stuck Housebuilders' Co." skit are Jarrell Overman, Mike Powell, and Jimmy Webster. This skit was a satirical take- off on the modern "dollar down" home building compa- nies. Shown at hard labor are "Clovie" Overman, "Hammer- head" Powell, and "Snoozie" Webster.

OUR TOWN, a three- act drama concerning the daily life of ordi- nary people, is laced with humorous touches. Behind the scenes of Thornton Wilder's Pu- litzer Prize winning play, college students busily prepare for cur- tain time. Malcolm Griffith (seated) under- goes a transformation by make-up artist, Lois Wilcox. Baseball play- er Athel Stone is amazed at what make- up can do. The play was directed by James Collier, member of the College's English De- partment, and student d i rector, Wa I lace Wood. The first act of the play is con- cerned with the daily life of characters. The second act deals with love and marriage, and death is the theme of the third act. CHILDHOOD SWEET- HEARTS George Gibbs ( N e e I Overman) and Emily Webb (Sue Thompson) stop by the corner soda shop to have a soda and chat with Mr. Morgan (Kirk Cutler).

THE MARRIAGE of childhood sweethearts George Gibbs (Neel Overman) and Emily Webb (Sue Thompson) is viewed with some apprehension and mix- ed emotions by mother of the qroom. Mrs. Gibbs (Mae Trouble- field) and father of the bride, Mr Webb (Lee Malpass).

WEDDING GUESTS wit- ness the departure of the happy newly weds. Mrs. Soames (Lois Brinson, ex- treme left) is utterly over- come by the sight of such a beautiful wedding. On Mrs. Soames' right are other members of the cast E r i c k Minschew, Mae Troublefield, Jean God- win, Malcolm Griffith, Lee Malpass, Hugh Bar- nett, Joan Yelverton, Bill Rogers, Ruth Ellen Pette- way, Darby Whitman, and Marcia Webb. DEATH reigns in this scene. Umbrella - clad mourners for Mrs. Emily G i b b s (Sue Thompson) gather around her grave while the spirit of Mrs. Gibbs leaves her mourn- ers behind to approach the Kingdom of the Dead. Here she is received by her friends and relatives that have died before her. A RECEPTION in the Stu- dent Center immediately following the play honors cast members and their guests. Serving punch are members of the cast Car- ol Byrd (right) and Mae Troublefield. While wait- ing in line, other cast members and guests talk about the huge success of the play.

MAY DAY 1962 presents Queen of May, charming Miss Stelle Flowers, crowned by Hugh Barnett, President of the Student Government Association. The many hours spent in fervent preparation for the May Day Festivities are well rewarded by the beautiful results achieved. OUR LOVELY MAY COURT, presenting an aura of gran- deur and majestic beauty, consists of (left to right) Bob Tillman, Sandra Beddard, Louvenia Bunn, Jo Ann Kelly, and Mack Whitley. Second row: Sue Thompson, Glenn Jones, Maid-of-honor Joan Yelverton and Ben Joe Staton. Third row: Erick Minschew, Queen Stelle Flowers, and Ron- nie Parker. Heralds are Mae Hall and Anne Harrison. WINDING OF THE MAY POLE is a traditional event in any May Day festivities. Mount Olive College students harmon- iously intertwine their gaily colored streamers for the pleas- ure of their Queen and her Court.

THE MAY DAY program was written and performed by College students depicting "A Day in the Ole South." MORNING (top right) begins with "hard working" farm hands Jimmy Webster, Bill Futch, and Bill Rogers tak- ing one of their frequent and lengthy "coffee breaks" from their chopping and hoeing. As is quite evident, someone has told a joke and Bill Rogers is making the most of it.

NOON (top left) brings us to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Rochester (Eddie Mann and Ruth Ellen Pette- way) for a delightful lunch of humor and wit served by Liza Jane and Sylvester Brown (Huldah Jernigan and Jimmy Webster). Although Liza Jane and Sylves- ter are laughing, Mr. Rochester flinches under the se- vere glare sent across the table by Mrs. Rochester. AFTERNOON (above) continues with Floyd Brown, Jimmie Sanders, Malcolm Duff, Charles Adams, How- ard Bryan, and Jerry Elmore pausing on their way to the "Old Mill Stream" to sing the song by that title for the entertainment of her Majesty and her Court. Equipped with melodious voices, high spirits, and fish- ing poles, these boys are well prepared for an after- noon of fun and fishing.

EVENING (left) ends a "Day in the Ole South" with soft melodies sung by Sue Kenney, Joyce Kenney, Me- lissa McCoy, and Linda Worthington.

HENDERSON SCIENCE CLUB members leave the Science Building at Wake For- est College where they attended the state meetings of the North Carolina Academy of Science and the Collegiate Academy. While in Winston-Salem they visited the Wake Forest School of Medical Technol- ogy, the Bowman Gray School of Medicine at the Baptist Hospital, and the Hunter Publishing Company, where the College yearbook is printed. Members attending are (left to right) Mrs. Lorelle Martin, lone Newton, Phyllis Wooten, James Ray Ad- ams, Neel Overman, Mack Whitley, Joyce Potter, Jo Ann Kelly, Jimmy Brock, and Wanda Johnson.

JAMES RAY ADAMS brings honor to him- self and to the College with his election as historian of the Collegiate Academy of the North Carolina Academy of Science at the state meeting.

A SPIRITED RALLY in soccer oc- curs on the College playing field be- tween two teams of boys, who seem to be more interested in having a good time than in winning the game. Games such as this are typical of our fine intramural program.

CAMPAIGN POSTERS

decorate the building with "vital" information about candidates and their qualifications for the sought-after student of- fices. Candidates Judy Bissette and Bill Futch are the personifications of nervousness as they pass through the poster-hung hall on their way to the political rally. Candidate Larry Malone hands out last minute campaign in- formation to voters Ken- neth Braswell and Sue Thompson as Mrs. Tan- ner looks on. CANDIDATES make a fin- al appeal for votes in their campaign speeches during the rally. With forced smiles and worn notes in nervously folded hands, the candidates cre- ate an atmosphere of ex- pectancy and excitement. Beginning left are Melis- sa McCoy, Judy Bissette, Marian Shivar, Ann Pugh, Linda Pringle, and Lois Brinson. Second row are Howard Bryan, Bill Rog- ers, Lee Malpass, Larry Malone, and Bill Futch. POLITICAL RALLY spec- tators witness the climax of a spirited campaign at a rally held on the front campus. Candidate Lar- ry Malone, better known as "Granny" Malone, ap- proaches the campaign speech from a new angle and proves to be a roaring success in his chic cos- tume and sporty limou- sine.

MELISSA McCOY AND LEE MALPASS, CO-EDITORS of the

yearbook, discuss plans for the 1963 edi- tion. Lee reads a note from Mr. J. B. Ed- wards, representative of Hunter Publishing Company, publishers of the yearbook, while Melissa listens and of- fers her comments on the corrections. LARRY MALONE, as sistant editor, looks through magazines to find interesting "col- umn" layout ideas. It seems that he has found one.

LOIS BRINSON, literary editor, finds the aid of Webster and Roget very useful in trying to find just the right word to de- scribe a picture. JUDITH BISSETTE, business manager, counts her blessings oops! money in the Busi- ness Office. Judith has learned a new scientific phenomenon this year the stretching of money.

LINDA PRINGLE, advertising manager, checks through her receipt books to see just how many more city blocks she must walk to bring in those ads. The ads solicited by Linda and her committee help fi- nance the yearbook.

THE 1963 OLIVE LEAVES STAFF, under the capable co- editorship of Melissa McCoy and E. Lee Malpass, set out to do the impossible. Our goal was to top the results achieved by the staff of the first place prize-winning 1962 OLIVE LEAVES.

We began, our minds in a hazy state of utter con- fusion, to discuss ideas for a theme, layouts, division pages, pictures and copy. Under the capable guidance of our wonderful adviser, Mrs. Lorelle Martin, for the first time we began to visualize our ideas a little more clearly, "Through the glass darkly" our minds struggled to see the end product, but it was only through our endless trials and mistakes that we began to see "through the glass clearly" the completed 1963 OLIVE LEAVES. In this year- book we have tried to depict the every day scenes and activ- ities in a student's life at Mount Olive College as they really are. We, the staff, sincerely hope that we have produced a yearbook that will recall the wonderful days spent at Mount Olive College to each student who picks it up. If we have succeeded in this, then we have seen "through the glass brightly."

ADVERTISING COMMITTEE chairman Linda Pringle gives ex- plicit directions "to sell those ads" to committee members (be- ginning left) Larry Malone, Bill Rogers, Carole Malone, Judith Bissette, Jo Ann Kelly, Ann Pugh, and Jasper Cowan. These stu- dents sacrifice a part of their time to solicit ads for the yearbook from merchants and business firms in the surrounding areas. Armed with friendly smiles, pens, receipt books, and a worthy cause, they demonstrate to the business world their excellent salesmanship-

LAYOUT COMMITTEE members face the difficult job of planning each page in the yearbook. Words such as "balance," "bleed," "margin," and "copy space" become an important part of their "annual" vocabulary. This year's committee employed a new and very different layout style officially known as the "column." Before the yearbook went to press, it had unofficially been dubbed the "impossible" by committee members. Mrs. Martin (seated), adviser, listens to Larry Malone's explanation of his "column" layout. Beginning left of Larry, other committee members Me- lissa McCoy, Lee Malpass, and Lois Brinson listen in hopes of understanding.

A ROCK COLLECTION given by Harley Hines, an alumnus of Mount Olive College, is just one of the many outstanding collections of scientific speci- mens to be found in the Col- lege science department. Mr. Hines points out an interesting rock to Mrs. Lorelle Martin of the science department.

A FAMILIAR SCENE on

any college campus in the spring is boys and girls talking and laughing. Mount Olive College stu- dents enjoying each other's company are (beginning left) Athel Stone, Ann Pugh, Linda Pringle, Billy Troutman, Bill Futch, Lin- da Worthington, Jo Ann Kelly, and Hughes Little. DEDICATION of the 1962 OLIVE LEAVES is made to Mrs. Lorelle F. Martin by Wayne West, Editor of the yearbook, in a special cere- mony held before the distri- bution of books to the stu- dents. Dedication is a closely guarded secret of the yearbook staff, and this was especially true this year since Mrs. Mar- tin is faculty adviser to the staff. No one was more surprised at the announce- ment than was Mrs. Mar- tin. Assisting in the dedi- cation ceremonies are (be- ginning left) James Adams, Doug Latta, Ruth Clark, and Eugene Sumner. AUTOGRAPHING year- books is a traditional fol- low-up to the dedication ceremonies and distribu- tion of the books. Students spend many leisure hours in the student lounge auto- graphing the yearbooks of their friends and fellow classmates.

DURING COMMENCEMENT ACTIVITIES a lovely gift of lawn furniture for the campus is presented to the College by the Sophomore Class. Wanda Johnson, Sophomore Class Speaker, presents the set to Dean Michael Pelt, who accepts the gift on behalf of the College.

THE ANNUAL AWARDS PROGRAM recognizing the ac- complishments of outstanding students was held on May 27 preceding the Commencement Exercises. The happy recipients of awards are (left to right) the W. B. Sutton Scholarship, Lois Brinson; the Spivey Music Medal and the Daughters of the American Revolution Prize, Ruth Cotton Clark; the Stroud Memorial Scholarship, Ann Pugh. Second row (left to right) Business and Professional Wom- en's Prize, James Ray Weeks; the McWhorter Scholarship, Howard Bryan; the Jordan Medal and the Southerland Medal, Wayne West. Not pictured is Billy Stevens, win- ner of the Johnson Business Medal.

MEMBERS OF THE 1962 GRADUATION CLASS display mixed emotions as they prepare to march down the aisle for the last time as students of Mount Olive Junior Col- lege. It is with eager anticipation that they look forward to firmly grasping in their hands that thin bit of parch- ment, the tangible evidence of measureless thought and effort- Yet, as the first strains of "Pomp and Circum- stance" beckon to them through the solemn atmosphere, it is with sadness and tears that they realize that their days at Mount Olive have ended.

THROUGH A GLASS

WARMLY

It was through the guidance, interest, and warm under- standing of our faculty and administration that as time passed we learned and we grew. The misty vales of ignorance and apprehension were gradually lifted from our eyes and with the aid of our professors we came to see things more clearly.

W. BURKETTE RAPER,

President of Mount Olive Junior College, has ably led the College since it came to Mount Olive in 1954. Under his guid- ance emphasis has been placed on a quality edu- cational program and thus the College has gained full accreditation in record time. This year Dr. Raper is faced with the problem

of evaluating the location of the College to deter- mine where it can best meet its objectives. Presi- dent Roper has recently begun a series of campus improvement programs in an effort to evaluate the overall needs of the Col- lege, both academic and physical, and to deter- mine how the College can better contribute to the full development of each

of its students both spiri- tually and mentally. In all his endeavors, Dr. Raper has made a signif- icant imprint upon the educational life of North Carolina. Regardless of how busy he is, he always finds time to listen to students. To us, he is a shining Christian in- spiration. His warmth and friendliness have made him loved by all.

BOTANY LAB STUDENTS are intensely observing higher forms of plants believed to be descendants of those which ex- isted millions of years ago. EXPERIMENTS IN CHEMIS- TRY are designed to help the student reason and apply knowledge. Gerald Hill (right) tests a solution for basicity while Lee Malpass calculates his results of an oxidation- reduction experiment. MICROSCOPES enable Zoology lab students to study Amoebae, Paramecia, and Euglena dur- ing the first few weeks of the course. Great excitement oft- en occurs when the students discover a less common species of Protozoa.

MR. DOUGLAS A. BARNETT (far left) is the capable director of the College Chorus and a member of the Religious Activities Committee. Mr. Barnett not only directs the Chorus but also teaches Music Apprecia- tion, Private Piano, and Class Piano. His wonderful sense of humor helps the students enjoy his music classes and learn new jokes at the same time. MRS. KATHLEEN B. WARREN (left) is the well-trained instructor of Private Voice. She is an excellent voice teacher as well as a friendly and understanding coun- selor to her pupils. Mrs. Warren is well known in this area for her outstanding soprano solos. CORRECTING Elaine Phillips is an occasional neces- sity which confronts Mr. Barnett as Elaine "plays" one of Bach's "Two-Part Inventions."

EXERCISES for strengthening the diaphragm are de- lightfully demonstrated to Adrian Grubbs by Mrs. War- ren. This daily ritual is a familiar "breath-taking sight" to all voice students.

MUSIC APPRECIATION students enjoy the strains of Requiem Mass by Victoria as Mr. Douglas Barnett ex- plains the history of this composition. According to his students, Mr. Barnett uses his "Tee Tee Turns" as well as records to help them remember important works. This course helps students understand, interpret, and appreciate music more fully.

PENS IN HANDS (top), these students are ready for Mr. Becker to begin his American Government lecture. They know that with his "speedy lectures" they must be prepared to start when he does.

PARALLEL READING

plays an important part in determining the success or failure of history students. Mr- Becker offers a variety of interesting selections to choose from in his notor- ious sixty-page syllabuses.

MAP DRAWING (below) is an ability which comes in handy for Judy Dudley. Mr. Becker strives to incorporate geographical facts into his history lectures, and students strive to keep up with his ade- quate knowledge of such facts.

MR. DONALD E. BECKER,

instructs courses in Amer- ican History, Western Civ- ilization, Sociology, and American Government. He also serves as chairman of the Libra r y Committee. Mr. Becker will always be remembered for his jolly laugh.

SHORTHAND SIMPLIFIED (above) is the name of the textbook used by Mrs. Boyette in her shorthand class, but the students seem to have a different opinion of the matter.

BUSINESS MACHINES (below) is a course in which students learn the basic operations of office machines. Student demonstrators Pat Barefoot (front) and Margie Herring (back) show Rhayna Arliss and Faye Britt oper- ational procedures-

MRS. LOIS P. BOYETTE, Head of the Business Department, teaches a variety of business courses. As adviser to the Phi Beta Lambda and member of the Publications Commit- tee, Mrs. Boyette demonstrates her efficiency in business. TYPING (top left) students battle against the forces of Mrs. Boyette's time clock and those evasive typing keys in a desperate struggle to pass a 10-minute timed writing. OFFICE PROCEDURES (below) teaches prospective sec- retaries the right way to run an office.

.

MRS. JANIE S. ARCHER, Head of the Athletic Department, instructs classes in Golf, Soc- cer, Speedball, and Volleyball. Her classes offer a welcome relief from the monotony of long hours of lectures. Mrs- Archer serves as chairman of the Social Committee, a mem- ber of the Executive Commit- tee, and adviser to the Ath- letic Association. VOLLEYBALL requires that the players keep their eyes on the ball. These teams demonstrate that they are good "ball- watchers."

GOLF is one of the most pop- ular sports offered by the Phys- ical Education Department. Hughes Little receives instruc- tions from Mrs. Archer on the correct way to hold a golf club. SOFTBALL, a game enjoyed by both boys and girls, receives enthusiastic support from this boys Physical Education class. SOCCER, a sport offered for male students, is enjoyed by Gerald Hill, Victor Mannio, Larry Malone, Earl Cowan, and Gerald Evans.

MRS. MARTHA W. KING (top), instructor for non- credit evening business courses, tests her students' typing ability by giving them a timed writing. Mrs. King teaches classes in Typing, Shorthand, and Bookkeep- ing for those students who desire to acquire business skills but are unable to attend a regular class schedule. Members of the class are (first row, front to back) Myatt Adams, Ellen Davis, Mildred Hall; (second row) Betty Joe Smith, Sandra Lee, Jo Ann Stroud, Linda Sutton, Betty Mozingo; (third row) Glenda Cook, Mary Ann Sautter, and Virginia Hassell.

RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING classes (left) are taught for the Mount Olive Community by Mrs. Lo- relle Martin, Head of the Science Department and Chief of Radiological Services for the Mount Olive Civil Defense Department. Ray Roberts (left), princi- pal of Calypso School, and L. Mac Edwards, science teacher at Mount Olive High School receive pointers on monitoring techniques.

MRS. MILDRED S. COUNCILL (above) Librarian, Mount Olive College, and Mr. Wendell W. Smiley, Li- brarian, East Carolina College, discuss plans for an ECC extension course in Library Science which Mrs. Councill is teaching in Mount Olive this spring. Bill Futch holds some books Mr. Smiley brought to be used with the course.

S2

EDWARD W. MILES, Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings, is a familiar figure around campus. Mr- Miles is indispensable and is in constant demand to fix something. He does a fine job keeping everyone sat- isfied.

CAFETERIA MANAGER, Miss Pattie Davis (seated), dis- cusses the menu for the week with the other members of the kitchen staff, Mrs. Leurah Reaves (left) and Mrs. Rose Michael. These women have the job of preparing meals for students who patronize the cafeteria daily.

We soon learned that one's outlooks on life had to be keen in order to properly play his role as a stu- dent of Mount Olive Junior College. In our classes our minds were sharpened, and we began to think and to choose for ourselves. It was then that we began to see . . .

THINKING becomes an integral part of our experiences. It is at college that we have the opportunity to really be- gin to think for ourselves. For the first time in our lives we are set free from the confining chains of prejudice placed upon our minds by the beliefs of our parents, rel- atives, and friends. Our minds have the opportunity to grow and develop of their own accord. We become think- ing persons, acting in accordance with our thoughts. "We think; therefore, we exist," and our existence is a much better and happier one as a result of our capability to think for ourselves.

FRIENDSHIP is also a very important aspect of college life. In today's world it is an utter necessity to be able to meet people and get along with them. Everyone likes to have friends and be popular- It is at college that we learn the true meaning of the statement, "To have a friend, you must be a friend." "To be a friend" be- comes our goal. Now more than ever before, the phrase "boy-girl relationship" takes on new meaning to us.

We learned many rewarding things this year. One of the most important was learning that we, the students of Mount Olive Junior Col lege, have many wonderful and loyal friends who will support us. We in turn know that it is only wise to patronize them. We thank our many friends and sponsors who have placed their ads in the following pages and who have aided us in look- ing .. .

FROM THE EDITORS . . . After months of planning and hard work, the 1963 OLIVE LEAVES has finally been com- pleted and sent to press, leaving us with mixed emotions of relief, wonder, anticipation, and thankfulness. We sin- cerely hope that as you read the book, you will glean from it the meaning that we have tried to portray. Our theme portrays the idea that after a year at Mount Olive College the student views the College in the light of its true values.

In retrospect we realize that we have come a long way from where we were in September. It was then that we shared the mental anguish of producing an idea worthy to serve as the theme of the yearbook. With a workable theme, we reached definite decisions concerning the cover, the type of layout, style of type, division pages, etc. In January we discovered that the work had really just begun. Giving up our semester break we plodded from "sunrise to sunset" through idea after idea, layout after layout, and copy sheet after copy sheet. February, however, proved to be the month. February 15 was our deadline and we had to work day and night to meet it. We can truthfully say that working on the yearbook has been hard work, but the reward has been great.

With the ever-present help and advice of our won- derful adviser, Mrs. Lorelle Martin, we conquered the dif- ficulties. Our deep appreciation of Mrs. Martin's unselfish sacrifice of her time, energy, and patience cannot be ad- equately expressed in words. Without her inspiration and guidance, the 1963 OLIVE LEAVES would never have be- come a reality. We do thank you, Mrs. Martin.

Without the co-operation of students and professors, our tasks would have been much more difficult. To them we also express our appreciation for their patience when we asked them to be in pictures.

We wish to thank each member of the Staff for his willingness to help and his loyalty even when the going got rough and the deadline was arriving too fast. Larry Malone was a great help to us in originating and drawing layouts. Lois Brinson worked diligently to fill those glaring spaces on the layout sheets known as "copy space " Under the guidance of Miss Gayle Melton, our proofreaders strug- gled to make those words fit in the space and to correct and revise the copy. Judy Bissette not only kept the year- book out of the "red," but she also produced a fine class section. Linda Pringle did the advertising section, and under her leadership the advertising committee did a won- derful job of selling ads and bringing in the money needed to pay the bills. The typing committee, headed by Ann Pugh and directed by Mrs. Lois Boyette, did an outstanding job of typing copy. Bill Futch and the circulation committee headed a very successful Christmas card sale.

Miss Davis, College Cafeteria Manager, was always there to pep us up with ice cream and cookies when we thought that surely this time we had reached our wits' end. Mrs. Bertha Martin was also very kind to us. She, too, gave up her holiday during the semester break to stay at the Carroll House with the female members of the Staff.

We would like to express our gratitude to Mr. J. B. Edwards, our adviser from Hunter Publishing Company, through whose help and advice we have created what we feel to be a good yearbook. His visits and phone calls were of great value.

Mr. Kraft's excellent photography has provided us with an array of pictures portraying our College and its students. His perfection in his profession and his inex- haustible patience helped us immensely.

Although it is impossible to list all those persons who deserve our thanks, we would just like to say to each of you who has helped us, thank you!
