Why does a college begin? Why and how does a college grow? In its stages of growth, what is the institution to itself and to its students? . . . What is Birmingham-Southern College?
The above questions could strike you as a trite series of essay-prompters or as prodders to serious thought. They can be, too, the reasons for a year- book.
After orientation, any freshman could tell you that Birmingham-Southern was begun with the genesis of Alabama education — Southern University, founded in 1856. The merging of Southern University and Birmingham College in 1918 occurred in a nationally turbulent period; the new college felt strongly and obviously its tenacious roots. The years between that frail beginning then and your particular now tend to haze into vague history. But that history has a cycle of vigorous innovations, secret doubts, admin- istrative bogging-down, impatient reactions ... all the emotions and pressures that are not the atmosphere but the sustenance of a college.

Often in its history the college proper, motivated by either a fear of strangling in mossy traditions or by administrative ambitions, seems to lose itself in a building program. The administration speaks incessantly of expansions, additions, renovations, budgets, bidding programs ... the campus resounds v\/ith an eight-to-five hammering, drilling, bulldozer- chugging ... the student, confronted by plank-and- brick blocked pathways and classes moving from room to room in o harried effort to escape the noises of nearby construction, wonders when the emphatic purpose of his school is going to be purely academic again ....

Along with building construction, the most obvious signs of administrative self-consciousness are a sudden appearance of markers, signs, and documented procedures. Not only are the faculty and college officials often frustrated and irritated by this collegiate red tape, but also the students - especially the student leaders. It is comparatively easy to slip into a state of muttered rage, open defiance, or errant non-chalance against these new rules rather than to accept their significance. Like the pompous speeches of the neophyte politi- cian or verbose prose of the amateur author, the abundant administrative mandates indicate a renewal of the original search for college excellence. The mundaneness and awkwardness of this renewal is sometimes ridiculous and often misunderstood. Probably the beginnings of the college were, too.
10
With his peers and like his administrative superiors, the student may engross his days here in his own strange sort of building pro- gram and regulation procedure. You build a carefully patterned campus image; a busy schedule of meetings, classes, dates; a record of grades, credits, hours, honors . . . you put a regulatory limit on introspection, personal involvement, solitude.
There is here a deceptive ease in laying hour on hour, day on day in a veritable wall of activities. Eventually, you find that you are only building the pressure higher and higher within yourself until your very brain is exploding with too much cramming of fact and not enough thought . . . until your hands constantly clench and unclench in a futility of empty anger . . . until you are smoking too much, laughing a little too loudly, finding the minutes of dormitory and library quietness unbearable . . . and nervously searching for someone besides yourself to listen to the sound of your words.

Breaking through the meaningless, you learn here something a little more than merely bettering your existence: the essentiality of individual absorption in a world of group motivational activites. When there is realization of this collegiate world as an all-too-brief chance for self-discovery, there is a definition of "college" or more specifically "Birmingham-Southern". Admittedly, this is an idealized viewpoint, but one purpose of a college is based on the highly idealized principle of man's innate drive for self-fulfillment. Idealized or not, the inner search was never unmarked by long stretches of loneliness, despair, or doubt; no maturity was ever fully attained without the sting of momentary defeat or the manna of equally momentary success. The campus, the carrel, the classroom are minute battlegrounds for the emergent individual and the emergent college.

DEDICATION
Scholar — Gentleman — Friend ... in these three words are contained a brief but accurate description of Dr. Henry Randall.
As a scholar, receiving his Ph. D. in 1963 at the University of North Carolina, Dr. Randall compe- tently possesses the expected requirements for a college professor. But beyond his academic study, diversified reading and extensive travel make a class under Dr. Randall a genuinely educational ex- perience. It is not in expecting, but in receiving a high quality of work from his students that Dr. Randall, the scholar, excels.
As a gentleman, Dr. Randall the person emerges. His third-floor Munger office is open to students for conversation as well as consultation, while frequent meetings with students around cam- pus serve to lessen his professional distance but not his personal dignity.
As a friend, he frequently participates in the more slapstick student affairs ... a pie eating con- test, barking a slave auction, winning the May Day "legs" contest ... all initiated with the quiet good humor that also characterizes his lectures. In ad- dition to the novelty of the unusual, however, his interest extends solidly in other, more permanent directions: SGA, Student Congress, Publications Board ... to name only a few. Through individual contact, through interest and helpful suggestion, his value is felt subtly throughout the student body.
Scholar, gentleman, friend ... Dr. Henry Randall.

ADMINISTRATION
In effect, the administration of a college community is a service organization concerned with smooth and efficient operation. Considering the student as the ultimate determinant of edu- cational policy, the administration must not only cope with physical realities, but must delve into the intangible realm of attitude and atmosphere. This, then, is the most important but the most challenging aspect of administrative functioning.
Progress must be their goal, but comprehen- sive insight must be their method.
President Completes Third
Year:
Academic and Physical Progress
Evident.
Cynicism and negativism were the prevailing cam- pus attitudes in 1963. Accepting the implied chal- lenge, Dr. Howard M. Phillips instituted a progres- sive program that has begun to operate on both the educational and physical level.
In an effort to maintain top efficiency in every area, a reorganization of administrative offices was effected, and the acquisition of superior personnel in every position has been an object of major con- cern. In conjunction with his progressive develop- ment, the building and renovating program is an answer to the necessity of providing facilities equal to the greater stimulative challenge which higher
education is providing.
Aware that progress could too easily be instigated at the expense of the student. Dr. Phillips is con- cerned with maintaining the small campus atmos- phere of educational excellence and interpersonal relationship between educator and student. Wishing to avoid the critical appellation of "administration- ism," he must insist, however, that academic free- dom cannot be maintained without self-discipline. To combine discernment with firmness is his objec- tive in realizing his goal of maintaining and surpass- ing the academic excellence which belongs to Birmingham -Southern.
"The role of a college president is not faced with problems, but with challenges."
"The administration is a service organization — a service to both the faculty and students."
"The student is the central purpose of the college."
Chancellor Snavely: The Beginning of a Search for Excellence
Dr. Guy E. Snavely served as President of Birmingham-Southern College from 1912 through 1937 and also as interim president in 1"955. He has often been introduced as "Mr. Birmingham- Southern" for it was during his first administration that Birmingham-Southern began her continuous search for excellence.
First a professor at Allegheny College, then Dean and Director of Development at Converse College, he became President of Birmingham-Southern Col- lege, and later of Lafayette College. He has served as a consultant to the U.S. Information Agency, and has received from France the decoration of Officer of the Legion of Honor. Dr. Snavely has known all of the U.S. Presidents from Theodore Roosevelt to John F. Kennedy, and such international figures as Nehru and Hammarskjold. He is the recipient of numerous honors; he has received twenty-three honorary doctorates and has served as a Senator of Phi Beta Kappa, and as national president of Omicron Delta Kappa.
Dr. and Mrs. Snavely now reside in Birmingham, and at eighty-four he is anything but retired, al- though he has, by count, "retired" four times. Pres- ently, in addition to serving as chancellor, he is a consultant in locating competent persons for ad- ministrative positions in the college world.

Board of Trustees
Birmingham-Southern's reputation for achieve- ment in the academic community is a direct reflec- tion of the prominent men and women who serve on her Board of Trustees. The North Alabama Con- ference and the Alabama-West Florida Conference each elect twelve trustees, six of whom are minis- ters and six who are laymen in the Methodist Church. One-third of the trustees elected by each Conference are elected for a term of one year; one-third are elected for a term of two years, and one-third for a term of three years. There is also a group of six trustees who are elected jointly by the two Confer- ences without geographical and denominational restrictions. They serve terms of three years each.

Dr. Abernethy Responsible for the
Academic
Planning
Zi
Known as an idea man. Dr. Cecil Abernethy has completed his second year as the college's Academic Vice President. His competence as a scholar and an executive and his service to the school have been demonstrated in many areas. After graduating from 'Southern in 1930 and completing work for his Ph.D. at Vanderbilt in 1940, he returned to Birmingham-Southern as on instructor of English. He has served the college for twenty years as professor, college theatre director, dean, and Academic Vice Presi- dent.
Dr. Abernethy is responsible for the academic affairs of the college, and in this capacity he is chairman of the Edu- cational Planning Committee.
Dr. Weaver Serves as College and Faculty Dean If II t
Before his appointment as Dean of the Col- lege, Dr. O. C. Weaver served as professor of religion and philosophy for eighteen years. His administrative competence is shown in the orientation program and the class schedule, for which he is responsible.
An indication of his close connection with the college is his co-authorship of Birmingham- Southern College, I856-I956, which is an offi- cial history of the College published in honor of its centennial.
Dr. Weaver completed his A.B. at Birmingham-Southern in 1935, his B.D. at Gar- rett Theological Seminary in 1939, and his Ph.D. in philosophy at Northwestern in 1952.
22
Mrs. Cothran in Tenth Year as the Dean of Women
One of the best-known campus personali- ties, Mrs. Robert AA. Cothran, is completing her tenth year here. Besides being responsible for all women students. Dean Cothran acts as ad- visor to the Women's House Council and the Panhellenic Council. Among her community activities, she is instrumental in the selection of Miss Alabama every year, and is former presi- dent of the Birmingham Branch of the American Association of University Women.
Mrs. Cothran received her B.S. degree from Huntingdon College in 1924, and her M.A. de- gree at Teachers College, Columbia University, in 1926. She came to 'Southern in 1942 as a sociology professor.
Dean Greaves Guides Residential Program
After having served as former assistant to the Dean of Records and Admissions at the University of Alabama, Dean John A. Greaves came to Birmingham-Southern in 1964. As Dean of Students he is responsible for evaluat- ing and creating a truly distinctive program of residential life, extracurricular activities and social events for Birmingham-Southern students. Dean Greaves is presently completing work toward his dissertation for his Ph.D. The thesis will be an analysis of administrative organiza- tion at certain state supported colleges and universities in the Southeast.
He received his B.S. in secondary education in 1950, his M.A. in school administration in 1957, and his advanced professional diploma in education at the University of Alabama in 1960.

FACULTY
The stimulation of an inquiring mind into the search for knowledge is the ageless challenge of the teacher. To the college professor dealing in areas which may range from the extremely prac- tical to the totally theoretical, this is a challenge which must involve not only meticulous grasp of the subject matter, but dedication to the principle of education.
A teacher or an educator? This must surely be the ultimate standard judgment.

GREEKS
"The new administration thought these orders were of great service to the management of the College in helping to maintain discipline and in holding up the standards of scholarship."
W. D. Perry History of Birmingham- Southern College 1856-1931
Undeniably, the Greek influence permeates social, as well as academic, life on the Hilltop. The decision to go out for rush, hopefully to receive "the bid", is one of the most important ones a stu- dent can make; he is selecting those who will share his successes, failures, and companionship for the next four years. At a time when Greeks across the nation are being challenged to justify their existence, the various brotherhoods and sis- terhoods at 'Southern have replied with outstand- ing campus leadership and consistently higher scholastic rating than the non-Greek average. Even the anti-Greeks and the "other five hundred" must agree that fraternities and sororities daily prove their worth by making a college out of a hilltop and providing 'Southern with students. Greek ties have caused many to say: "I'd leave if it weren't for my fraternity."

The Panhellenic Council works primarily to co- ordinate friendly relations and policy matters among the Hilltop's six sororities. This "all Greek" council is composed of the president, the rush chairman, and a representative from each sorority, with the Dean of Women, AArs. Robert M. Cothran, serving as advisor.
Rush, which can mean life or death for a sorority, is the constant item of concern. Panhellenic, there- fore, serves as the agent where rush regulations and rules are formulated. Despite the cramped and heated rooms of Stockham, Panhellenic manages to guide more than one hundred girls through rush week with amazing effectiveness.

The Interfraternity Council serves technically to promote a workable relationship among the six fra- ternities and to set up rush rules and regulations; realistically, it provides the needed meeting ground for Greek leadership on campus. The I.F.C. is com- posed of the president and two members of each fraternity, with the Dean of Students serving as advisor.
In 1965-66, I.F.C. may be applauded for two achievements: first, for co-operating with Panhel- lenic in the planning and production of the initial Greek Week; and secondly, for the abolishment of the questionable quota system, somewhat forcefully inaugurated two years ago.

AXO: Games and Gambling a' Go-Go

From that year, the group developed into the sixth national Greek-letter fraternity for women. At 'Southern, Alpha Omega of Alpha Chi Omega displays not only the musical but academic and social facets of campus life. Especially outstanding in intramural sports, the Alpha Chi's this year repeated their highly successful venture onto the stage and their Casino Party again proved to be another Hilltop favorite special event, More exclusively, the AXO's social season highlight was their January dinner dance. Sister of the lyre are members of House Council, Student Congress, the debate squad, KDE, Triangle Club, Alpha Lambda Delta and choir. In addition A Chi O's claim the Senior Manager of Intramural Council and membership in Who's Who.

AOPi: Everything's Coming Up Roses
Tau Delta is one of 79 active chapters of Alpha Omicron Pi and was installed at B.S.C. in 1925. The sisters of AOPi are generally credited on campus with the majority of beauty honors. In past years, Miss Southern Accent, along with several members of her court, have been girls of the red rose. AOPi is proud to claim Miss Alabama, 1966, as their sister plus distinc- tive sisters who serve as presidents of Andrews House Council, the freshman class, and the Baptist Student Union. AOPi is also represented in the Student Congress and Mortar Board. The warmth of sisterhood sparks a happy social life: the traditional pledge dawn-wake-up by actives, the highlighted annual dinner dance, and impromptu room parties. Nationally, the sisters are holders of the National Philanthropic Award and recipients for the second consecu- tive year of an AOPi national scholarship.

DZ: The DZ Lamp Burns Brighter
Delta Zeta sorority began nationally in 1902. Theta Beta was colonized on the Hill- top in the fall of 1962. Since that almost obscure beginning with nine charter members, DZ has worked admirably to a 34-member status. Their laudable rush efforts this fall resulted in seventeen prospective Delta Zetas. Their sister Greek groups are not only admiring but pleased with this phenominal growth — a fact which speaks highly for the DZ spirit. Presently holding the Birmingham Panhellenic Philanthropic Trophy, softball and volleyball trophies, and the B.S.C. Intramurals Sportsmanship Award, DZ also holds forth well in campus organizations. Among the sisters are found secretaries of Panhel- lenic, Amazons, Newman Club, the debate honorary, and Canterbury Club. Delta Zeta is also represented in the choirs, debate team, and volleyball all-stars.

Dink turns Devil for rush
KD:
Little Bit of Heaven, Little Bit of Hades
The now annual Heaven 'n Hades Party joins the list of Kappa Delta campus innovations as one of the best good times a Hilltopper can enjoy. The KD's, a traditionally Southern sorority, were founded in 1897 in Virginia. Alpha Upsilon chapter was organized at B.S.C. in 1 930. Striving for "that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest", the white rose sisters support the Crip- pled Children's Hospital with Easter egg hunts for the patients and monetary donations. Not out of the campus limelight, the KD's claimed the honors of AAay Queen, freshman class treasurer and secretary. Mortar Board member- ship, and three campus beauties. While especially stressing scholarship this year. Kappa Delta sisters still found time for their hilarious slave auction, the pledge kidnapping, and pledge-planned room parties.

Pi Phi Girls: Tiiey're Proud to Be
Although they are no longer the "studious angels" of past campus stereotype, the Pi Beta Phi's of Alabama Alpha still strive to maintain their admirable campus leadership in scholarship. Alabama Alpha received the National Pi Beta Phi scholarship award for 1965. Study is not, however, a full-time occupation for the exuberant and dynamic sisterhood. The Pi Phi's originated the candlelighting ceremony of 'Southern's sororities, and their mysterious "Cookie Shine" is still a much-speculated-on enigma. Pi Phi's are presidents of Mortar Board, Panhellenic, and the American Chem- ical Society, secretaries of the Activities Council and S.G.A., and cheer- leaders. They are found in Triangle Club, Who's Who, Publications staffs, S.G.A., Student Congress, K.D.E., and the AAiss Southern Accent Pageant.

ZTA: Looking for the Zeta Tau Man
The enthusiasm and spirit of Alpha Nu of Zeta Tau Alpha first bounced onto the Hilltop in 1922. Theirs is the distinction of being the first national sorority on campus, and their activities continue to place them among 'South- ern's foremost "pioneers". Winners of the Pledge Scholarship Trophy in 1965, the Zetas also achieved runner-up position in the 1965 women's intramurals. The traditional Zeta initiation day revenge which gives pledges full rein in sophomore dorm rooms reached unprecedented humorous chaos this year. The blue and grey shield is the symbol of many a sister in such campus activitiesas cheerleading, Panhellenic Council, Mortar Board, Who's Who, S.G.A., publications staffs. Triangle Club, Amazons, and the Miss Southern Accent Pageant.

ATO: Three Cheers for Alpha Tau
Alabama Beta Beta Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega entered the Southern University campus in 1885 and has figured actively in campus life since. The Taus pride themselves on a close union among the Brothers and on their scholarship achievements; they have led the campus six of the last tv\/elve years in scholastic average. Men of the Toga hold key campus roles, such as presidents of the I.F.C., Alpha Phi Omega, and Newman Club. Taus figure in O.D.K., Student Government, and Triangle Club. After a good, hard rush, the ATO's pledged thirteen men. Rushing equally hard in intramurals, the men of the Glazebook Creed placed first in volleyball and third in football. Miss Marcia Flood is the Sweetheart of the men who claim "a bond as strong as right itself and as lasting as humanity."

KA: The House That Finagle Built
Versatility and unity — these are prime characteristics of one of 'South- ern's first four fraternities: Kappa Alpha. The brothers were especially out- standing this year due to their move into the long-awaited KA house on fraternity row. The Southern gentlemen did not let their blasted budget mar their love of a "blow-out" however, and the T.J. parties became grist for the Hilltop legend mill. The Lee Boys serenade on the slightest provocation — always accompanied by the pledge-designed lighted badge symbol; the Brothers claim this continuous song fest as an obvious appreciation of 'Southern females. With the '65 pledge class rated first in scholastic averages, the KA's boast of their men who are vice-presidents of the student body and the IFC; president of Eta Sigma Phi, ODK treasurer, and members of the Honor Council, and Who's Who. Miss Pat Graybill is the Kappa Alpha Rose.

LXA: The White House on Party Corner
Resounding their newest chant "Bim-Bam", the Lambda Chi Alpha's partied their way through fall rush to the successful pledging of fifteen men. The traditional carrying of purple, green, and gold coconuts by the Crescent pledges is a show of the strong and friendly spirit between active and pledge. Remembering their social obligations, the Lambda Chi's annually "kidnap" sorority presidents for a food basket ransom to be donated for charity. A favorite LXA pastime is partying and their white two-story home was the scene of many an after-the-football-game party this fall. On the campus scene, the men of LXA hold positions in S.G.A., Student Congress, Eta Sigma Phi, and are presidents of Triangle Club and Touring Choir. Miss Su Lockett is the Lambda Chi Crescent Girl.

PiKA:
Calendar Men Mark
'Southern Time
The Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity was founded nationally in 1868 at the University of Virginia and has since grown to a 132 chapter membership. Delta Chapter was the first fraternity to be established at the old Southern University and is equally distinguished in its claim as the fourth oldest chapter of PiKA. The men of Delta Chapter are a credit to PiKA: they built the first house on fraternity row, elected the first pledge class sweetheart, and will publish the only fraternity calendar for the campus. Striving to regain former campus prominence, the men of Garnet and Gold placed second in football intramurals and received a national PiKA award, the Harvey T. Newell Award for the most improved chapter. Pikes serve as assistant editor of the News, president and vice-president of Caduceus, vice- president of the Pre-Law Society, and are active in Theta Sigma Lambda and Theta Chi Delta. Miss Audrey Ann Prude is the Dream Girl of Pi Kappa Alpha for 1 965-66.

Miss Sally Argo Sweetheart of SAE
ill m
Stressing excellence in character, personality and leadership, the SAE's hold the key roles in the influ- ential BSC organizations. After the founding of Signna Alpha Epsilon at the University of Alabanna in 1856, Alabama Iota was the second Greek group established at Southern University, and the Sig influence still remains a primary one on the campus. Among these are: presidents of the student body. Circle K, OKD, and the senior class; editors of the college newspaper and annual; chairman of the honor council; and mem- bership in Phi Eta Sigma.
The "E's", however, seem to have trouble follow- ing the calendar, as New Year's Eve is annually celebrated in November, except for this year when the Brothers joyously rang in the New Year in December. Patio parties, creek banks, and the antics of Brother Bud are all part of the fraternal life enjoyed by the Men of Minerva. At the '65 Sweetheart Party, Miss Sally Argo was chosen as sweetheart of SAE. The closely-knit brotherhood of the Purple and Gold selected 16 men from fall rush and later captured the coveted intramural football M;~s0 championship as the fraternity entered
one of its greatest years on the Hilltop.

TX: Rally 'Round the Flag, Men
The youngest chapter on 'Southern's campus, Theta Chi is one of 135 active chapters strengthening the "high ideals of God, country, and the College." While intent on the mean- ingful college experiences, the Brothers of Beta Xi do not discount the social aspects. A matter of pride to the pledges and actives was the valiant defense by the pledge brothers Littleton and Weed of the new Theta Chi flag by seven rival fraternity men. Hopefully, the men of Theta Chi will soon have a home on fraternity row where they can permanently post their new flag. The Beta Xi men sparked the Hilltop S.G.A. elections with a vigorous campaign; their return- ing number of actives is the largest in their history and optimism has rightly become the keynote. Miss Maizie Griffith is the TX Sweetheart.

Since beauty is usually defined in terms of man in appreciation of woman, the need early grows within a girl to be told that she is beautiful.
If she is among the very lucky, the need is fulfilled by not one but several someones; there are accolades, bouquets of long-stemmed roses, beauty walks, trophies, shining moments when the applause and the audience are solely hers ....
Whether she bears an official title like Miss Alabama or Miss Southern Accent, or merely walks in beauty to the one person who shall always see her in that way- long after the roses fade and the applause dies into silence — the truly lovely girl is not forgotten at 'Southern.

Miss Alabama
The qualities of gracious beauty, of quiet charm ore traditionally Southern. Since 1925, to the special credit of our coeds, Birmingham- Southern has been the academic home of nine Miss Alabama's. Of the past seven consecutive winners, six have been 'Southern students.
Miss Linda Sue Folsom, having been crowned Miss Alabama for 1966, earned the added distinction of placing among the top ten contestants in the Miss America Pageant. Overnight the girl who sat next to us in music class, trudged the same winter-weary Quad, stood in the same endless registration lines became a state celebrity. She was transported from Munger stage and the choir to an operatic solo on national television. Her gestures were photographed and her comments quoted to be seen and read in our hometown newspapers.
Linda Folsom carries on a Birmingham-Southern tradition. Throughout this year, she has managed to assume the duties of official hostess for the State of Alabama with a capability and charm belying her twenty years. We can only applaud the excellence of her representation.

SPORTS
Athletics on the Hilltop is the same as athletics anywhere: sweat soaking through a jersey, feet pounding up and down on the hardwood, turned ankle, dirt in scratches, blood, cheers, the grimace of one more step. It reaches into the dorm, into the fraternity house, into the snack bar, into the letters home. It reaches — for one result: the crush of defeat, or the inner, unconquerable feeling of victory. Athletics is the same as life. For the player and the spectator, there is no satisfaction in mediocrity.

Panthers Boast Best Hardwood Record in a Decade
90
This is the finest season to be realized by a Pan ther basketball squad in the past decade. 'Southern owes its success to three important faculties: the team, the coach, and the energetic fans. The latter of these factors is bright and new on this campus. A winning team, and one with such an impressive record of 12 wins against 5 losses, will undoubtedly bring high re- wards to Birmingham-Southern.
As the season began, the mighty Panthers seemed rather meek in losing their first two home games. The first loss was a 90-85 defeat at the hands of an ex- perienced St. Bernard team. Following this loss was a memorable one-point defeat at the paws of the La- Grange Bears on an unbelievable three-fourth's court shot at the buzzer.
New life was pumped into the team as the fans stuck by them; before the Christmas holidays, they bounced back to defeat both Alabama College and the Sewanee Tigers. In the Sewanee game, the crowd, entertained by Tiger Coach Varnell, clamored for 100 points, but the Panthers fell two short. However, these shouts were not to go unanswered for long.
The century mark was posted against Alabama Col- lege and four other opponents throughout the season. After trouncing the Falcons at Montevallo, the Cats returned home to defeat Georgia State 80-67. In- vading Mississippi for their next road trip, the Pan- thers made quick work of both Mississippi College and Millsaps. Against the Choctaws, the Cats, led by Mike Luther and Don Lundy, set o school record with 127 points; Luther had 39 and Lundy 31. The contest with Millsaps was more reserved in scoring, with 'Southern roaring off with a 91 -79 victory.
A chance for revenge came with the Panthers traveled to Cullman for a return match with St. Ber- nard. Surprised at the improvement in 'Southern's squad, the Saints never recovered from the initial shock. The Panthers, with high scorers Luther, Lundy, and John Whitworth doing a tremendous job, ran the score to 1 17-97.
With seven straight wins under their belts, the team prepared to take on traditional rival Huntingdon. This game will remain in the memories of many 'Southern students who traveled by charter bus or by car as a battle against the officials. Sports fans are likely to complain for little or no reason, but the exhibition dis- played in Montgomery was ridiculous. As the story goes, Childers and Self of Huntingdon scored the points and the Cats lost 98-87 in a frustrating match.
Staying on the road, the Panthers moved on to Atlanta, meeting LaGrange and Georgia State in re- matches. State proved once again to be a menace to 'Southern despite its poor record. The Cats led by 1 1 points at half-time, only to trail in the third quarter by a free throw. Closing the third period, however, the Panthers roared back to take the victory by a ten-point margin. LaGrange has long been a tough foe for BSC and again as in the beginning of the year, the Cats bowed to them 89-80.
Coming home, perhaps to have their well-traveled tires changed, the Panthers met Millsaps, Mississippi College, and Huntingdon in succession. In the first two
games it appeared that the team once again had its winning ways, but to the disappointment of over 1 ,200 people they dropped the homecoming game to the Hawks. Leading by as much as 13 points, the Pan- thers saw their lead slowly dwindle away until, with 50 seconds on the clock, they had fallen behind by 3 points. Final score: Huntingdon 82 — 'Southern 81.
In three years Harold Pickel has built a basketball powerhouse at 'Southern. Determination, hard work, nothing short of perfection are his demands. Sleepless nights, constant worry, unending planning are the prices. The product; a winning season.

Throughout the season the Panthers yyere led b/ out- standing scoring and rebounding play fronn Junior Forv/ord Mike Luther, who averaged over 21 points and 10 rebounds per game. Don Lundy and John Whitworth, Sophomore Forward and Guard, averaged over 17 and 16 points respectively per game. Dependable ball-handling from Sophomore Guard Jim Humphreys and awesome rebounding ability displayed by Junior Center Walter Garrett, rounded out the starting five places. During the entire season. Coach Harold Pickel relied on back-up men Doyle Newby, Kirby Sevier, Mike Parker, Walter Donaldson, Bill Burch, Butch Wessel, Gary Leeman, and Ed Harbin. Without the aid of these experienced courtmen, the team would not have been as successful. Next season Hilltop students and Coach Pickel can look forward to the return of 14 experienced varsity players, including freshmen Don Krup, Lew Mitchell, and Tom Yeilding, who saw limited action.

The art of cheerleading is unique and not captured easily by all who endeavour to master it. And yet, 'South- ern's cheerleaders, led this year by Pat Graybill, have successfully inspired many students to display a boisterous spirit not always found at an academic college. Leading the "Give 'um hells" and the "Go-Go-Go" is the enjoyable task these feminine symbols of spirit perform at each of the basketball games.

Last year's golf team, with two wins over
Alabama College and Saint Bernard, compiled o
5-4-1 record. One of these losses was at the hand
of Middle Tennessee State, which has not lost a
match in three years. In spite of the mediocre
record, the '65 season was a little more successful
than expected — both for Coach Ben Englebert and
the team. Two year letterman Don Meyer
will lead 'Southern's linksmen in
'66, along with returning lettermen
Mike Callahan, Mat Johnson, and
Billy Moates. Freshman Howard
Donovan is expected to be a
welcomed addition to the team,
coached this year by Jack Haley,
which faces an expanded schedule
and a hopefully much improved
season.

LEADERSHIP
Leadership is a composite of many qualities, all of which may be discussed to the point of becoming amusing dialogue. The individual who can handle himself is not terribly rare. But the person who can handle both his temperament and human nature is the one who aggregates positive leadership qualities without being made himself into a hackneyed leader. In the position of chairman, editor, or president, one exposes himself to criticism, satire, and blame. Elevation which always abounds in the moment of election, for some rarely extends beyond that moment into the daily tasks. Nothing environmental inspires extraordinary leadership; chance and circum- stance usually determine the ascension. This detrimental network can trap some would-be B.M.O.C.'s, but it is the ladder-work for others. At 'Southern, the leadership positions are many — whether or not leaders fill them is annually a moot question.
Phi Beta Kappa
The Key of the Phi Beta Kappa scholar marks the highest scholastic honor that a college student can attain. The Phi Beta Kappa scholar is nationally recognized for his achievennent, since only those institutions which meet cer- tain requirements of excellence can maintain a chapter. At 'Southern is chartered one of the two chapters of Phi Beta Kappa in the State of Alabama. The scholars must have a 3.4 average or above, must have resided in a Phi Beta Kappa institution for two years, and must be within the upper 15 per cent of the graduating class. Members of Phi Beta Kappa for 1965 were:

Omicron Delta Kappa, the national leadership honorary society of college men, was established at 'Southern in 1924. In selecting students for member- ship, ODK taps in recognition of achievement in scholar- ship, athletics, student government, social and religious affairs, publications, speech, music, drama, and the other arts. One faculty member is also tapped each year to promote mutual interest and understanding and to create an honorary organization representing all members of the collegiate community. This year's membership continued the ODK tradition of presenting the campus with a student directory and sponsoring an alumni banquet in the spring — proving again that campus leaders ac'tually do lead.

At Birmingham-Southern, AAortar Board is the highest honor that a senior woman may receive. Membership is gained through on excellence in scholarship, faculty recommendation, and a unanimous vote of the AAortar Board chapter. Pre-requisites are loyalty, leadership,

Striving to render some service, and not to just exist, AAortar Board this year sponsored a graduate school forum for seniors which proved surprisingly informative and helpful with the participation of eleven faculty members. Along with the inauguration of this forum, a file of graduate school catalogues has been placed in the library for interested students.
1965-66 also saw AAortar Board reluctantly give up sole management of the book ex- change.

Student Government Association
The name Student Government Association is in itself an adequate summation of the activities of this group. 'Southern's SGA is composed of four officers, eight Upper Division representatives, and eight Lower Division representatives. It is excellently aided by Dr. Henry Randall, who serves as faculty advisor.
The year 1965-1966 was full of SGA surprises. One such jolt was that the SGA showed itself to be an amazingly effective force on the Hilltop. This display of initiative was generally thought to be impossible. We are slightly awed to learn that SGA can actually do something besides make budget allocations and add to the collegiate prestige of its members.
Another surprise was the SGA success in submitting its budget request on time this year, after first finding out that budget requests do exist. A pri- mary reason for this scattering of dust from the SGA tomb is not only pleasantly surprising but also relatively simple; the 'Southern student body finally elected a president who was dedicated to developing the creative potential that an SGA can harbor. Such directive leadership in a student body president is a 'Southern Phenomenon.
Of course, this does not say that all mediocrity was removed from its deep entrenchment in the SGA. Such revolutions are not accomplished in one year. Perhaps with another good election, plus a little bit of luck . . . but this peroration must be left to the future.
We rejoice there is — at last — a basis on which the future can build.

This Council is charged with a specific respon- sibility—"to acquaint all new students with the terms of the Honor Code, with the 'extreme importance of the Honor System', and with the investigation of any reported offense."
One could easily imagine the atmosphere of an aca- demic society that supported no code of honor and nurtured cheaply competitive students instead of scholars. Realizing that carelessness and self-deception may prove to be the Achilles heel of even the most promising student, the Coun- cil this year has sponsored the much-needed publication of an honor system handbook. It is a credit both to the Honor Council and to the College that academic integrity and ethics have become the norm rather than the exception.

Publications Board
The Publications Board was organized at Birming- ham-Southern for the purpose of governing and supervising the three campus publications ~H///top News, Quad, and Southern Accent. The Board is composed of the editors and the business managers from the three publications; the president, the secretary, and the treasurer of SGA; the Dean of
Students; and the chairman of the faculty com- mittee on student publications. For the first time in its recent history, the Board has attempted to draft by-lavi/s and standards for its publications. In this endeavor, the Board has correctly discovered that "responsible and effective journalism" is not pro- moted by censorship, but by responsibility.
The Hilltop News for 1965-66 conformed in many v^ays to the guide lines heretofore established for the weekly campus media. Stories ranging from freshman impressions of the "rolling green Hilltop" to an exclusive expose of Parents' Day could be found from pages one to four, with the usual recap
of campus athletics. This year's Hilltop News, how- ever, will probably be remembered best for its questionable non-editorial policy. In refusing to "rock the boat", the newspaper offered no sounding board for criticisms of either administrative or student actions in the Hilltop community.
Assuming the role of the intellectual magazine of the campus. Quad this year claimed to present "the best student literary efforts in keeping with the high standards set forth by the Publications Board." Surprisingly enough. Quad fulfilled its commitment, finding more varied content, careful editing, and sound business management — a successful forr"nula for gaining student approval.
With the acquisition of a permanent office. Quad has firmly established its place among campus publications. It only remains to be seen whether Quad will continue to seek the approval of diversified interests or return to court the flustered feelings of misunderstood intellectuals.
Seeking to capture the year 1965-1966 with realistic photography and copy, this year's Southern Accent makes no claim to be the perfect year- book. The right and "unvoiced duty" of the Accent to offer a creative resume of the school year became firmly secured by the publication of the 1964 product, but was somewhat weakened by rosy sentimentality in 1 965.
In continuing this legacy, the 1966 staff has worked a full year in an effort to present a publication which is, in tone and in appearance, both creative and collegiate. Yet, whether or not the 1966 Southern Accent has achieved this admittedly difficult goal depends upon individual reaction.

Fred Maulden Editor
This year, for the first time, the Hilltop News operated under a new system of "overlapping" editorships. The new editor was elected in the winter quarter and served with the previous editor's advice during the spring, before managing the newspaper alone the next fall.
All campus news was considered for publication. No attempts were made to patronize or discriminate against any organization, religious, departmental, or social. Nominal attention was given to any national news believed to be of importance to the student body.
Considering its financial situation, with a subsidy from the SGA of approximately two-thirds operating costs, the Hilltop News attempted, successfully, to end the year "in the black". Added to its financial stability, the acquisition of a new office further strengthened the production of the 1965-66 Hill- top News.

'66 Southern Accent
BIRMINGHAM-SOUTHERN COLLEGE

EDITOR • Chips Bailey BUSINESS MANAGER • Jim Tripp
"The Southern Accent, published annually, is the student yearbook," according to the 1 965-66 college catalog. Although somewhat more help in deter- mining the role of the Southern Accent is offered to each year's staff from Publications Board, a few in- terested faculty members and administrators, end non-apathetic students, it falls squarely upon the un- wary shoulders of each editor to determine the proper role. Idealistically, the Southern Accent should be a publicity medium, a reference book, and o record of the school year — all in one.
This year's annual, however, is an attempt to capture and interpret the true character of the period from Spring Quarter 1965 through Winter
Quarter 1966. In presenting, for the first time a full three-quarter yearbook we have made no at- tempt to whitewash nor to criticize bitterly or unjustly. The Southern Accent for 1966 is indeed a student publication, as we have sought the assist- ance of interested students outside our own staff whenever the case has warranted it.
Birmingham-Southern College has been and continues to remain rich in tradition and prestige. It has been a welcomed task to record 1965-1966 for the Hilltop.

QUAD
David Vest Editor
Maurice Gilbert 6us/'ness Manager
Quad is a magazine produced by students with general student reader interest in mind. With this creator-responder relationship firmly established, such secondary roles as that of a showcase for visitors and alumni take care of themselves. Ideally, the writers and artists represented in Quad take as their primary source the intel- lectual enlightenment and human involvement offered by a liberal arts education.
We presented two issues during this academic year. Our edi- torial machine consisted of a six-member advisory board and an editor with power of final decision; numerous others participated in both routine labors and the more nebulous task of criticism. We believe that the amount of material offered us for considerotion was the largest in Quad history, which dates back a quarter- century.
The existence of Quad is justified only by an interested reading audience; an energetic reaction was our primary goal.

ORGANIZATIONS
As on all campuses everywhere, organizations on the Hilltop when viewed as a collection can, only at best, be seen as a conglomeration of units, each aiming with varied intensity at a goal. Perhaps that goal is no more than post-college recognition of having "belonged," acknowledge- ment from others of one's potentials and achieve- ments, or a search for acceptance. For a fev/, however, the organization is a means whereby one may further develop his talents and interests by work through and with others of like-nature. Because of these few, the many otherwise pur- poseless organizations are allowed to exist and perpetuate themselves. For it is generally true in society, the strong sustain the weak.

B.S.C. Choirs Superior in Performances
The choirs of B.S.C. are divided into three distinct groups of which all are noted for their excellence in per- formance and laudability in talent. Jim Tripp is president of the three-year-old "Southern Singers", the all-male chorus which performs extensively throughout the South. Locally, the Singers entertain for civic organizations, participate in the Christmas Carol Service, and perform with the Birming- ham Symphony.
Harry Mueller presides over the business affairs of the Concert Choir. Members of this choir study choral literature of all periods and represent the College on tour and at Christmas and graduation functions.
Although not as well-traveled as their singing 'Southern brothers, the Women's Chorus is no less blessed in talent. Under the direction of Miss Daphne Grimsley, the girls sing at various civic functions, the Pops Concert, and other such events.
The credit for many a favorable impression of Bir- mingham-Southern students must be accrued to the chorus
members and their superior performances.

Unique to this campus is the fact that musical students make up fourteen per cent of the entire student body. In the Young Artists auditions spon- sored by the Birmingham Music Club, 'Southern maintains an outstanding record. The winner of the piano division is customarily a BSC student; the organ category is annually won by a BSC student and in voice competition the vast majority of winners come from the Hilltop.
This year the choirs were distinguished by an un- precedented appearance with the Birmingham Sym- phony Orchestra. The first such performance by a college choral group, the honor was well-matched by the BSC choral renditions of "Requiem" and "Carmena Burana".

In an effort to challenge the student to a mature response to Christianity, the ministry of the AASM for 1 965-66 was developed to move in three directions — directions which the coun- cil felt were the natural ones of movement for the Church regardless of denomination. The three directions were (1) periodic programs of interest and worship services, (2) several small independent study groups, and (3) a program of service which was participation in the Co- operative Tutoring Service for culturally deprived children in the surrounding area. Participation was encouraged, but not pushed, in any or all of these directions which created student interest and concern.

STUDENT LIFE
Isolated in a severely limited atmosphere, the 'Southern student must, of necessity, limit his energies to participation in solely campus affairs. Involvement in the mainstream of political and social unrest, so evident among students in larger universities, is reduced on the Hilltop to total immersement in a range of activities that is nar- rower both in scope and ultimate significance. However, the almost interminable procession of committee meetings, ball games, and fraternity parties are conducted in a unique aura of kinship which manages to breathe a degree of meaning into endless motion.
The campus police are never here when you need them.
Talent and Beauty
Greek Week "Tests" Greek Participation
Spring quarter 1965 saw the initiation of Greek Week — a Greek sponsored activity replacing over- worked Catspaw. Beginning with a faculty-student tea, activities continued throughout the week with each fraternity in cooperation with one sorority sponsoring an event. Despite an annoying check to the merriment produced by a surprising number of unexpected tests, many students managed to tran- scend the setback, and participation was active.
Among the week's activities, a non-competitive fraternity sing was revived, and Dean John Black- burn from the University of Alabama was guest speaker at the Friday night banquet. Ending the week was an all campus street dance at which Sharry Baird AAackin and Ronnie Lucky were intro- duced as Miss Venus and Mr. Zeus.

Spring Things on the Hilltop
Spring has always been a time for 'Southern students to celebrate events other than those listed on the academic calendar— patio parties, creek banks, and houseparties, to name a few. Yet, during Spring Quarter, '65, the attention of the college was also focused toward new visitors who, through in- vitation or unquenchable desire, decided to view the Hilltop.
The second annual Spring Visit allowed over two hundred prospective high school students to sample 'Southern's liberal arts education and campus life, while strangely enough, the weatherman co-
operated. Later in April, the male segment of the campus invaded Stockham to welcome the reigning Miss America, Vonda Kay Van Dyke, who was visit- ing the campus on her tour through the South. Fol- lowing beauty came politics as the Young Demo- crats hosted a visit by Alabama's United States Senator John Sparkman the next week, as he spoke to a large crowd of students, faculty, and adminis- trators.
Spring quarter always brings welcome relief from our winter of discontent.
Senator Sparkman comments on national political issues and his thirty years' experience as Representative, Senator, and Vice-Presidential nominee.
"Oh, come on Bill. Wouldn't you like to go with a Miss America?"

F.L.O.P.'s Go-Go Girls
Independents Sponser Campus- Wide F.L.O.P.
The first campus-wide function of spring quarter was the Independent-sponsored F.L.O.P., or Funny Looking Outfit Party. As suggested by its title, costumes or old clothes were the order of dress for the evening, and a prize was awarded for the most original ugliness. Stretching its theme to almost unbelievable lengths, a hairy chorus line comprised the major portion of the intermission entertainment. Acting as Master of Cere- monies for the party were Jim Cobb and Gary Klotzman. The Independent-sponsored function was the first of its type and provided an excellent opportunity for sly but appreciated cuts against the "other half."

'65 Sees May Day in April
Recognizing the official advent of Spring, 'South- ern's annual May Day celebration, with its Greek sponsored booths, barrel races, and egg throwing contests, again found its place among the quarter's activities. However, due to scheduling difficulties on the college's infamous master calendar, April 30 claimed the unique distinction of stealing the spot- light from its sister month. As the football field was being resodded, the quad provided the center of festivities for the '65 rite, allowing serious scholars to gaze disapprovingly from the library windows.
Defeating opposition of the traditional "Prettiest Legs" contest was Dr. Henry Randall; but moving from beauty to beast, A Phi O's "Ugliest Man On Campus" contest was gloriously captured by Ian Sturrock. Climaxing the day's activities was an all- campus dance at which May Queen, Sally Argo, and her court were presented.

Just as sure as spring is the Zeta Po' Boy supper. Red bandanas and mascara freckles provide a colorful backdrop for a late afternoon supper of baked beans and Po' Boy sandwiches. Scattered bales of hay create an authentic hillbilly atmos- phere—along with varying degrees of corn.
Proceeds for the event, which also includes a Po' Boy chorus line as well as professional and campus entertainment, go to the Zeta philanthropic project.

'Can you hear the clams?"
Why does everybody look forward to houseparties?!
Three Days in May
Reminiscent of the Dionysian festivals of the ancient Greeks ore the houseparties of the Hilltop Greeks. Twice during spring quarter, packed corfuls of screaming couples exit en masse for the site of the traditional festivities. However, like the rites of our famous ancestors, there is an element of per- sonal risk involved in these week-ends of hilarity; for three days of sharing blankets, suntan oil, and peanut butter can make or break a relationship. The outcome of the week-end can usually be guessed from these cars that reluctantly pull onto campus late Sunday night, or those that brusquely arrive early Sunday morning.

Hopefully, graduation is the presentation not merely of men and women with degrees, but men and women with educations.
The beginning and the ending of study is with these — the graders, advisors, lecturers, and pro- fessors of knowledge.
Graduation is good-by.
Pomp,
Circumstance, • • . and Farewell
Graduation, until June of one's senior year, is an abstract term. With that final spring, however, the haze begins to solidify. The hours and quality points pile up more on the plus than the minus side, job interviews and GRE suddenly stand importantly in your world and not, as before, in someone else's.
For the undergraduate, senior nostalgia, plans and even fears are somewhat inexplicable. But pomp and circumstance, speeches, processions, caps and gowns are the outward symbols of an inward ceremony. For all — senior, parent, professor, and administrator- graduation is the acknowledgement of the academic maturing of a group, the recognition of a constant search given an initial direction.

'Southern Honors Mr. Yeilding
Once called "the toughest man with a dollar in America", Newman Manly Yeilding — "Red" to all his friends and adversaries — was tastefully honored and praised into retirement after directing the financial affairs of the College for four decades. Uniquely enough, a "chosen forty", composed of male and coed summer school students, served as waiters and hostess- es to the limited audience of B.S.C. faculty. Board of Trustees, the Yeilding family, and several close friends of the College.
The July evening in the Student Center was appro- priate indeed to praise a man synonymous with the word Hilltop itself. "Red" was presented with several memorable gifts — a key to the city, a bound volume of one hundred letters from elected friends, and the wooden chair which he occupied as Bursar, Treasurer, and Financial Vice-President. The eloquent Master of Ceremonies, Bishop W. Kenneth Goodson, probably bestowed the highest honor in saying, "Think of Birmingham-Southern and you think of two names: Dr. Guy E. Snavely, first. And I rate Red Yeilding second." The guest of honor made no speech, but concluded typically . . . "And thanks for feeding all the Yeildings tonight."

Orientation: New Faces and Spirit
. il
Orientation for the 1965-66 Freshman class began September 1 6 upon arrival on campus. Despite the mass of information bestowed during orientation proper, classes were extended for the first time this year to Thursday convocations for the Freshmen.
A trip to Blue Lake climaxed the week of tests, classes, convocations, and resulting confusion. Freshman camp is an activity designed to instill a sense of unity among the freshmen and to delineate the particular spirit of the class. (However, the false assertion on the part of several seniors that the freshman spirit appeared outside their windows during the night is to be forever disregarded.) On September 28, the Freshman bubble of orienting by morning, partying by evening and talking by wee hours of the night, was popped by the harsh reality of CLASSES!

Fraternity Rush 97% Effective
Remembering names, late rendezvous both in the dorm and fraternity houses, and formal rush parties are all part of the fraternity program during rush week. Yet, in spite of a new requirement that Greek- interested freshmen report on campus four days before orientation, the fraternities conducted the most competitive and surprisingly successful rush in 'Southern's history. Working under a new system, every rushee was given an equal chance to meet each chapter during the hurried but memorable week. It is a credit to the fraternity system that rush resulted in not only full but dispersed pledging.

Sorority Rush Hectic Weeic
Despite the overwhelming heat of late summer, sorority rush proceeded in the overcrowded and unventilated rooms on the top floor of Stockham. An unusually difficult period, resulting from a greater number of interested women and last- minute changes due to the orientation schedule, the rush period was nevertheless fair and generally co-operative. Considering the ugly reality of simple acceptance or rejection implied in the Greek system, it is significant that the 1965 women's rush was 94 percent effective.

No longer does the phrase, "Every week has its Wednesday," opply to 'Southern.
Beginning foil quarter, Birmingham-Southern instituted a concept of co-curriculum programs to replace the former mid-week "convocation." Titled QUEST, the new student assemblies are concerned with the essential business of education: searching for the significance of human experience. Almost as meaningful to the student as the program theme and varied ideas was the offer for mature choice and independent decision. This measure of adminis- trative respect for student self-knowledge created a reciprocal respect and a responsive eagerness to truly "quest."

Miss S. A. Pageant: Beauty + Entertainment
Any long standing acquaintance can mold with- out the occasional fresh air of innovation. The seven-year old Miss Southern Accent Pageant, though still an interesting and notable campus event, stood this year in danger of assuming just such a staleness. It is to the credit of a dedicated and hard-working coterie of students that the eighth annual campus beauty contest became the 1965-66 AAiss Southern Accent Pageant. Procedure for selection remained the same: the nominations, the tense Beauty Walk, the unnerving interviews, the strained banquet, the final voting, the anxious preliminaries, the applauded coronation. But the
special additions to the framework of these cus- tomary procedures resulted in a new emphasis.
"Good entertainment" — the original purpose of the contest— became, with the contracting of "The Lettermen," standing-room only entertainment. Both the stage and the program were artistically dis- tinctive. Even the Beauty Walk was decorated to full recognition of its purpose; a gracious setting for a pretty group. Something special, something more, something close to perfection — these were the key- notes and mottoes for the revival of a fading tradition.

Once each year Santa Claus finds his way to the Hilltop, spreading good cheer to all the spirited souls who ore beginning to wonder seriously about their fall quarter point average. That/ ingenious mathe- matical plan known as the quarter system does al- low the joys of no academic indulgence during the Christmas holidays, but it dampens much jubilation at 'Southern due to that olways-looked-forward-to chance of taking final exams. Nevertheless, the Yuietide spirit is yearly injected into the campus by the superb McCoy Carol Service, the SGA Christmas Dance and various fraternity house drop-ins, proving that Christmas is indeed a special season.

Student Congress Offers an Answer
Seeking to inaugurate o non-legislative, opinion-gathering student governmental body, the idea for this type of organization developed directly fronn 1965's spring quarter SGA elections. This proposition proved a major and winning plank in the platform of this year's student govern- ment president. Bill Hogan. A committee of twelve worked intermittently for six months to construct a feasible framework for 'Southern's first Student Congress.
The Congress, composed of both commuter and resident representa- tives, is designed to supplement and not to supplant the SGA. It is indeed to the credit of the organizing committee that the Congress' creation and function is not the work of any single person or faction but has found es- tablishment mainly through the diverse forces of Hoganism, hlowingtonism, and Conwayism.
In essence, this new adventure in student government allows more students to have a voice in campus affairs and in SGA governmental procedure. More important is the fact that campus leadership can now offer a firm reply to that petty, recurrent administrative question, "Is this what the students really want?"

Casino Party Outstrips Tiiem All
The first week of the popular winter quarter featured an unexpect- edly large crowd traveling to Monte- vallo to cheer on the never-before- exciting basketball team, and the always expected "exotic" atmosphere of the Casino Party. With visions of a Hilltop Playboy Club dancing in their heads, the AXO's take over the anti- septic ballroom and provide a swing- ing band, supervised gambling, and a torchy floor show directed toward the male tastes of the campus. This party should be remembered as the first to prove that an all-Greek group could successfully host the entire campus.

Blizzard-like weather could not deter the Alpha Omicron Pi sisterhood from presenting their traditional Mr. Hilltopper. Planned as annual recognition of 'Southern's most outstanding nnale student and as a fund raising program for the AOPI national philanthropic project, the show went on with a hardy crowd of 450. Grady Clarkson was a skillful M.C. with the show theme of "LUV". So determined were the girls of the rose to defy snow and ice that not even the chorus line faltered. Bill Hogan, the president of 'Southern's S.G.A., received the 1966 title, and thanks to Mortar Board the cool audience was rewarded for its loyal attendance by late permission.

Snow: "Would You Believe It?"
With its characteristic awkwardness, the Alabama weather defied oil predictions and chose to snow on the one January weekend out of three that the weather bureau had not forewarned the populace. Although the snow only lasted the weekend, it wrecked havoc on the AOPi plans for AAr. Hilltopper and on the mid-quarter study plans of most students. Those who had journeyed safely down the hill sat in the snack-bar and watched fellow students picking their way down treacherously icy walks . . . and the cafe- teria tray supply was strangely deplenished after amateur and veteran tackled the campus slopes with tray-sleds. Fraternity house drop-ins were rewards for the hardy snow lovers who eventually felt the zero-degree temperatures. And despite the fears of the -4 degree night, the AOPi's had a good crowd for AAr. Hilltopper. It was one weekend that everybody was "snowed" on the Hilltop.

Dating: The Memory Always Remains
Even here, even in a "study school", the individual need for communication grows beyond the casual snack-bar conversation, the between-classes dialogue. The need takes form and is extended through the study date, the fraternity party, the downtown show, the ten p.m. dorm lobby visit, the campus theatre. Like dancers in an ancient ritual, the coed and collegiate go through the traditional paces of dating, lavaliering, and pinning. It is often difficult in the pressures of the campus world to determine whether the steps are motivated by a desperate search for someone to share the burden or by an uncompromising honest affection. With the various academic interludes, pause may lead to introspection, and introspection to realization. The beginnings may then become the sudden endings. But the change in partners is not usually permanent.
For some, the dating custom is merely a rank in the social grading system; for others, it is a meeting and an eventual apprecia- tion of another personality. Only the lucky or the wise find themselves in the latter category. For them, there is a part of the Hilltop that is especially fine, particularly beautiful . . . and happily lessened in frustration. Like every aspect of 'Southern, the various attempts result in exactly what one's ingenuity and patience make them.
Beginning, continuation, ending . . . the memory always remains.

SRA: The Church in a World Come of Age
For the first time in several years, the student body was presented a religious speaker who could appeal to those on campus not specifically interested in the discussion of religion and who spoke in the vernacular on the college layman — not of the grad- uate school curriculum. This welcomed change was accompanied by still another change.- the mythical Religious Emphasis Week became the more sophisticated Student Religious Association Lectures.
This appealing guest lecturer was Dr. Claude Evans, Chaplain of Southern Methodist University, who spent a full three days in organizing a search for the modern church and a relevant meaning for its participants in 1966. For those who participated in this safari in religion, the involvement offered a far more honest insight into the nature of the Church in a world come of age. For those who didn't, despite the several lectures and open discussions held by Dr. Evans and our College Chaplain, Don Shockley, the week of January 28th probably proved insignificant.

The 9 O'clock Panic
According to the faculty, the last week of every quarter is the time of truth when each student is called upon to display his abound- ing knowledge or lack of it. To the student, finals represent that unique period when the ever-popular "hello" may be heard but not welcomed and when the study room becomes a nurtured companion.
Short tempers and tired nerves are the conditions of the majority of Hilltop scholars, who blatantly declare that it is inconceivable how anyone could get so far behind, with their companions in knowledge nodding in i agreement. For the many students who try to cover a quarter's work in a few days, the week before finals may often prove the hardest of all. All in all, finals are the end of everything — including student life.

It has been said of 'Southern that, "Everybody studies, so it's not so hard to do." True enough, that term papers, afternoon labs, and the ever- prevalent tests do require a large majority of stu- dent time; but excluding extremes, is this not as it should be in an academic community devoted to ambition and serious intellectual achievement? As one progresses from that "color me green" gul- lability of a first-quarter freshman, through the sophomore slump, to the know-it-all junior, and finally to the battle-scarred senior, he finds that his studies have not immuned him to the rest of the world but rather have helped him to understand it.

EPILOGUE
Volume 25 — the '66 Southern Accent— is now completed, recording another year in the contin- uous history of Birmingham-Southern. For the editor and staff, this year has not been typical in the preparation and production of this volume. Specifically, a new publishing company was con- tracted in an attempt to make available within our budget the various modern printing tech- niques employed in the best college yearbooks. Another rarity this year was the fact that the staff received full co-operation from the S.G.A. and even a somewhat concerted effort by its mem- bers to understand the problems involved in a student publication.
On the technical side, a new design in division pages was adopted instead of the standard "symbolic" picture — in order to capture the full meaning of FACULTY, ADMINISTRATION, or STU- DENT LIFE. Coupled with new page layout designs has been an abundant use of Langford photo- graphs. A full four months was spent re-working and producing the GREEK section which has been unintentionally ignored in the past. Unnecessary
pages were dropped where possible for the pur- pose of enlarging the STUDENT LIFE section and creating 'Southern Accents, a four-page photo- essay. Spot color has been used where most effective, along with a full-color double page breaker for the BEAUTY section. In compiling these 244 pages, more than 3,000 frames of film hove been exposed to bring you an accurate, yet
thoughtful. Southern Accent.
The job of covering three full quarters — Spring
and Fall, '65, and Winter, '66 — has been a diffi- cult but challenging experience. For this endeavor
into the realm of publications, special thanks are due to Howard Cruse, for help with the cover design; Jan Brooks, for the art drawing of the Quadrangle; Gil Rogers, in supplying certain needed photographs; Ernie Crates, representative for Inter-Collegiate Press; Sally Alexander, for an excellent job as Copy Editor; the S.G.A. , for timely financial support; and to some fifty stu- dents, faculty, and administrators who were interested enough to ask for a truly distinctive yearbook. The editor and staff hope our attempt will be judged accordingly.

ADVERTISEMENTS
The publication of the Southern Accent depends heavily on the ADVERTISEMENT section. Without this source of income, it would be impossible to publish the yearbook. For this reason the business staff of the '66 Accent has included interest photo- graphs within this section to further channel the reader's attention. We ask that each student look not only at the interest photographs but also at the copy. After doing this, patronize our adver- tisers at every opportunity. They have helped us; now you help them.
