DEDICATION

In these trying times of sudden change and inse- curity there is something comforting and inspiring about a tradition. Birmingham-Southern is a tradi- tion, and the lives of dedicated men may be found throughout its pages of history.

Dr. Abernethy's long period of continuous service is a tribute to his abilities. His love for his alma- mater came to life in him when he was an undergrad- uate at 'Southern. He was a member of the class of 1930, and as a student he took an active interest in the affairs on the Hilltop. He served as President of the Dramatics Club, President of his social fraternity, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and President of his Sopho- more, Junior, and Senior class. His participation as a student stimulated the interests in him which were to carry over into his later life.

To a brilliant man who has graced our campus with his intellect, his writings, and his guidance . . .

to a dedicated man who has given a wealth of serv- ice to his alma-mater as an undergraduate, as a faculty member, and as our Dean . . .

we dedicate this volume, the 1959 Southern Accent.

FACULTY AND STAFF OF OVER 100 . .

The highlight of the Alabama Methodist confer- ence session in 1854 was a sermon by the Reverend Archelaus H. Mitchell, one of the church's able de- fenders of religious education. His inspiring sermon created a great enthusiasm and began a movement toward the founding of old Southern University.

A charter was obtained in 1856, and after three years of preparation, on October 3, 1859, old South- ern University opened its doors officially. Five pro- fessors including the president were on hand to wel- come the small number of students.

Since the merger with Birmingham College, indus- trial Birmingham has been kind to Birmingham- Southern. Our annual budget has increased from $15,000 to over $800,000, and our faculty has in- creased from five to a faculty and staff of over one hundred.

In the opening year in 1859, fifty young men reg- istered for classes. The faculty had intentionally set high scholastic standards for the University. Dr. Wightman, the first president, felt that these stand- ards were "not too high for a career of public use- fulness and reputation which awaits the University if they are adhered to with firmness".

The next school years, however, opened without promise or enthusiasm. The war between the states occupied the attention of most parents and students. Only thirty-three students enrolled, and then a num- ber of them withdrew to join the confederate forces in Virginia.

In spite of the wars, depressions and epidemics, however, the school thrived, and the enrollment has increased from fifty to over one thousand.

REVEALING A FAMASYLAND

OF BEAUTIFUL GIRLS . . .

THE BEAUTY PAGEANT FEATURES A FRENCH THEME

Master of Ceremonies TOM HEARN

Atmosphere from Bill Nappi's band adds enchantment to the Beauty Ball.

This year, under the leadership of Pageant Directors Connie Boze and Bob Lester, and the help of a staff of forty students, the Beauty Pageant was presented by the 1959 Yearbook. The Pageant, in its second year of existence, featured the fifteen finalists with a beautiful French theme and announced the yearbook queen Miss Southern Accent.

The girls who were in the upper division were eligible for tlie title and from these, the judges. Miss Lily Mae Caldwell, Miss Elberta Gibbs, and Mr. Bill Ozier chose our Queen. She was crowned by the 1958 Miss Southern Accent, Miss Barbara Neely, and honored at a ball following the Pageant.

Sponsored by Mortar Board

This year one of the highest honors which Southern can offer to a girl the title of Miss Southern Accent was awarded to a beautiful, blue-eyed brunette Miss Margie Mills.

Margie is a senior, majoring in Religion and Philosophy, and is treasurer of Kappa Delta Epsilon educational sorority, vice-presi- dent of the Methodist Student Movement, and president of Mortar Board, the women's hon- orary leadership-service organization.

Her soft graciousness, quiet reserve, and vivacious beauty have won for Margie the title of the most beautiful Miss Southern Accent.

For the third consecutive year a Southern co-ed has won the title of Miss Alabama. Reigning this past year as Miss Alabama, was beau- tiful Lee Thomberry, our 1958 May Queen.

Southern is especially proud of Lee, because her beauty and talent, not only won for her the Miss Ala- bama title, but also enabled her to be chosen one of the finalists in the Miss America Pageant.

Lee is crowned May Queen at Southern by Lucretia Giattina, the May Queen of 1957. Attending is a former Southern co-ed, Anna Stange Miss Alabama of 1957.

With autograph hound in hand, she says goodby to friends as she leaves for the Miss America Pageant in Atlantic City.

REVEALING A HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL

YEAR FOR THE GREEKS . . .

On October 28, 1859, just twenty-five days after the opening of Southern University, a number of stu- dents met for the purpose of organizing a literary society, the Belles Lettres. The next day another group organized the "Clariosophic Society of South- ern University", which later merged into Phi Kappa Sigma. These two groups competed with each other in exciting challenge debates. Although both of these societies now are mellow pages of the past, they pre- pared the way for the social fraternities and sorori- ties at Southern University.

Greeks at Birmingham-Southern now have entered a prosperous era, which is budding with opportuni- ties for advancement in co-operation and understand- ing. Many of these greeks have philanthropic pro- jects in which they help some worthwhile organiza- tion, needy family, or children. Activities such as intramural sports, Catspaw, and Interfraternity Sing have helped build a spirit of friendly competition between these groups. This year has proved to have been a very successful advance in greek relations.

Alpha Omega of Alpha Chi Omega was founded in 1926, and this year was one of our best. Our chapter was chosen by our Province President as "Carnation Chapter of the Month" during the month of September. This honor was based on punctuality in turning in reports and chapter activi- ties.

The lyres of Alpha Chi were seen in Intramural Council, College Thea- ter, Amazons, Choir, Wesley Players, Water Ballet, Religious Organizations, and musical activities.

Alpha Chi's philanthropic work in- cluded providing a basket to a needy family at Christmas and various money-making projects for contribu- tions to Cerebral palsy.

The girls of A. Chi 0. also had a full social schedule this year which included an all-campus reception in honor of all sorority and fraternity pledges, songfest, coffees, and parties. The year was brought to a close by a weekend of fun on a houseparty.

DELTA CHAPTER

In 1871 Pi Kappa Alpha granted a charter to Delta Chapter, the first social fraternity at 'Southern.

Talent was the feature which marked the 88th year for the men of Delta chapter. The main reason for this was a talented pledge class unequaled in the past, joined with talent already present in the chapter. This astounding tal- ent was seen in College Theatre where every event was dominated by Pikes and the choir and theatre had Pikes as presidents.

ALABAMA IOTA CHAPTER

In 1878, Alabama Iota received its charter and was the first fraternity at old Southern University to own a house. This year, the second in our new lodge, opened with the pledging of nineteen men.

Throughout the year brothers participated in every phase of campus life, and held the presidencies of the following organizations: The Student Government Asso- ciation, Honor Council, Men's Dorm Council, Phi Eta Sigma, Triangle Club, Baptist Student Union, Theta Sigma Lambda and Eta Sigma Phi. Also a "Sig Alph" served as editor of the Southern Accent.

The membership of ODK included brothers, Hearn, Mitchell, Braswell, Smith, Donahue, Price and Tatum, while Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities picked brothers Hearn, Braswell, Smith and Mitchell.

The Scholarship Trophy was captured in the fall by Alabama Iota.

A crowded social calendar including the Christmas Dance, Red and White Ball, Rebel Reunion, Alumnae Reunion, and a house party in Florida accented this most successful year.

MEMBERS

Theta Chis took part in all phases of student govern- ment some of which are: ODK, I.F.C., Phi Eta Sigma, Theta Sigma Lambda, Executive Council, Triangle Club, and various religious organizations.

REVEALING AN EXTENSIVE

0 f

SYSTEM OF ORGANIZATIONS

From the beginning the administration was ex- tremely concerned with the discipline of the students. No cuts were allowed in class, and absence from church was strictly forbidden. With this strict super- vision, most of the faculty looked with scorn on the idea of self government for the students, or any kind of extra-curricular organization. They favored only those organizations which advanced the academic side of education.

Gradually the administration began to realize that these organizations would be an advantage to the stu- dent— providing a workshop for good citizenship. In the early 1900's students organized the honor council to "carry out the honor system more effectively." All kinds of clubs were formed; even an anti-tobacco league to discourage the use of tobacco came into being during this period.

The organizations at Birmingham-Southern now have grown, under the active support and participa- tion of both students and faculty, into an extensive system.

They also sponsored a Christmas concert and dance featuring "The Hilltoppers." Other activities of the Legislature in- cluded issuing a monthly Student Calendar and improve- ment of traffic regulations.

A Student Cabinet, which works in the field of Student Activities, consists of four permanent members and other appointed members from various areas of campus activity. This representative group plans such campus events as Cat's Paw and May Day and regulates Campus Elections and functioning of organizations.

This year, after a lapse of 16 years. Quad, the lit- erary magazine for Binningham-Southeni students, was revived. Two issues were published and were well received on the campus.

There is a need on every college campus for me- diums of expression for students. It is the hope of the editors of Quad that this magazine will adequately fill this need and that it may continually expand its scope and always maintain a high level of quality.

REVEALING A WELL BALANCED

ATHLETIC PROGRAM . . .

During the greater part of the history of the institution, students have had little restrictions as to their games and sports, hut in the early days, just as it is today, intercollegiate football was con- sidered impractical. The major emphasis was placed on baseball and tennis at that time and strict regulations were imposed.

Since then many changes have been made in both the varsity program and the intramural program. With the development of fraternities and sororities, our intramural program grew into a program in- volving a variety of sports such as football, base- ball, volleyball, basketball, and swimming. And this eventually gave birth to our school-sponsored individual sports program.

In the course of years, the baseball team and tennis team died away as our major sports and basketball has grown into their places. Depending on interest shown each year, the school has sup- ported various varsity teams, such as a tennis team, a swimming team and finally, the wrestling team.

Instead of imposing restrictions on sports, the school's ultimate aim now is to maintain a well balanced athletic program which provides ample opportunity for student participation.

PANTHERS 1958-1959

This year, with seven returning lettermen, the Birmingham-Southeni Panthers did not achieve the record that was expected of them. The cagers, how- ever, were almost unbeatable on their home court and finished with a 13-12 record.

In spite of the long, tough schedule that the team faced, the players gave it all they had, and this year eleven men were awarded a varsity basketball letter.

Returning lettermen Andrews, Pickel, Yelverton, Stooke, Thompson, Clem, and Light got letters again this year, and Bryan, Waggoner, Hines, and Ro- chelle also received a 1958-1959 letter.

With five lettermen leaving, the prospects for next year look uncertain, but we will be able to depend on the six remaining lettermen to do their best. They may surprise us.

A word of encouragement, and Coach Burch sends the team out with determination to keep their lead.

Several of the team members won their own matches and will be returning lettermen next year. Those who received a varsity wrestling letter were Jack Phillips, John Putman, Elvin Hilyer, Eddie George, Martin Kite, John Culverhouse, Dan Kitch- ens, and Bob Gay.

With the interest at 'Southern building up as it has this past year, we can soon look forward with a brighter out- look.

REVEALING A CAMPUS LIFE

FILLED WITH ACTIVITIES

Students through the years have not been without their activities. Many tales could be told to lighten our history. A system of espi- onage prevailed in the early years of the school which was partly responsible for a lack of fellowship between faculty and students. Any surplus vitality which the boys had was worked off at the expense of the faculty.

The hiding of professors' buggies was a stock joke and occasionally professors were locked in rooms by promising young students.

Our early history is full of hair-breadth escapes from professors, foot races, vengeful pranks and April Fool escapades.

Since that time, however, better faculty- student relations have stopped the persecution of professors. Although even now our student still has his pranks, imagination is used more frequently in our well planned all-campus activities.

RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS WEEK

This year a favorable impression was made on 'Southern's stu- dents by The Right Reverend George M. Murray, a young, out- standing, and heartwarming Bishop of the Episcopal Church. They found him completely aware of the problems which confront a college student, and his sermons during the week, "For All of Life," "With All Thy Mind and Strength," "To Love and to Cher- ish," and "And Who Is Thy Neighbor," were well received.

The Catholic and Jewish students had services of their own con- ducted by Father Eugene Mueller, and Rabbi Stamfer.

The services, devotionals and discussion groups created sincere interest and increased ties of fellowship among students.

Under the direction of Mr. Raymond Anderson, Southern's choir is a very necessary part of campus life. The beautiful anthems during Religious Empha- sis Week, the entertaining convocation programs, and the annual Christmas program are a few of the activi- ties which make the campus proud of the choir and the choir members.

Because of its fine reputation the choir is enthusi- astically received by churches and schools on its an- nual choir trip. This year the choir toured north Ala- bama and southern Tennessee.

In England it would be called a "spoof"; here the "Boy- friend" is better known as a "take-off" on the music, com- edy and life of the roaring Twenties. The scene is a fash- ionable girls' school in Nice. The story is about a poor little rich girl, Polly Browne, who finds her Prince Chamiing, Tony Brockhurst, disguised as a messenger boy. During a musical romance, Polly and Tony overcome various obsta- cles and all ends happily.
