The colorful program which began at 7:30
was Co-sponsored by the Student Government

by judges, a decision initiated by the Broom staff
this year. In the past a celebrity has made the
choice from photographs.
Theatre majors Wayland Clifton and Teddy
Solman served as masters of ceremonies. The
events of the evening were designed around two
Broadway shows. West Side Story and the Sound
of Music. Entertainment was furnished by vocalist
Candy Busby of Etta and Kathy Thompson of
Columbus playing continuous piano accompani-
ments throughout the show.
Colleen Kinney of Dermott, Ark. was the ov-
erall chairman. Sets were designed by Duane
Harrison with lighting by Buddy Melton of Friars

DELTA
On Thanksgiving Eve, 1888, four young ladies at Boston University founded
Delta Delta Delta. The pansy, the pearl, the pine and the colors silver, gold, and
blue soon became known as the symbols of this bond of sisterhood. There are
now 107 active collegiate chapters with over seventy-one thousand members.
Phi Phi Chapter was established at Delta State on November 10, 1962. Since
that time the Tri Deltas have produced leaders in all phases of campus life such
as Faculty Scholars, DSC Beauties, members of the Homecoming Court, Delta Belles,
Class Favorites, and many other girls who are active in campus organizations.
The purpose of Delta Delta Delta is to establish a perpetual bond of friendship
among its members, to develop a stronger and more womanly character, to broaden
the moral and intellectual life, and to assist its members in every possible way.
Delta Delta Delta is a sorority devoted to the principles of friendship, love, and
sisterhood, as is expressed by its open motto, "Let us steadfastly love one another."

KAPPA
DELTA
Kappa Delta Sorority was founded at Longwood College in Farmviile, Virginia
in 1897. Since that time Kappa Delta has become a vast sisterhood of over 100
collegiate chapters with over 55,000 members.
Kappa Delta came to Delta State's campus in the form of Gamma Psi Chapter in
1962. During Gamma Psi's short history its members have done much to further
the traditions and ideals of the sorority.
In ways of social service. Gamma Psi makes "good morning cards" for all patients
at East Bolivar County Hospital; gives an annual Thanksgiving basket to a needy
family; adopts a child each Christmas; helps with the Easter Seal drive; and along
with PiKA members, collects money for the Heart Fund every year.
Kappa Deltas are represented among campus beauties, favorites, homecoming
maids, class officers, various honoraries, the Senate, and other campus organiza-
tions. Gamma Psi is especially proud of its three Student Government Officers,
four cheerleaders, and to have "Miss Delta State" as one of its members.
Social events held by Kappa Deltas each year include informal date parties, an
annual spring formal, a Mother-Alumni Tea, and an officers banquet. This year
Gamma Psi held a reception honoring DSC's faculty, which will become an annual
event.
Kappa Deltas are united by common bonds of loyalty and sisterhood, and strive
to excel in scholarship, gracious living, and understanding of those without as
well as those within their circle.

ALPHA
ORDER
Kappa Alpha Order was founded at Washington and Lee in Lexington, Virginia
on December 21, 1865, by a group of Confederate soldiers. Kappa Alpha's founders
chose as their spiritual father General Robert E. Lee, who was president of Wash-
ington and Lee at the time. It is to General Lee that many ideals of Kappa Alpha are
traced. Kappa Alpha now claims eighty three active collegiate chapters, all located
in the South, with over 50,000 members.
On November 14, 1964, what was Delta Alpha Omega Fraternity became Delta
Beta Chapter of Kappa Alpha. The men of Delta Beta are active in all phases of
campus life. The KA's are proud of their many Senators, class officers, and SGA
Officers, among which is the Student Body president.
Delta Beta has many social functions each year. Among these are several date
parties in the fall, a Christmas party, and the annual Rose Ball.
The aim of the Kappa Alpha Order is "to train young men to cherish the southern
ideal and protecting pure womanhood, practicing courtesy and self control, and
preferring self respect to ill-gotten gain."

ALPHA
The Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity was established on March 1, 1868, in Room A7 ,
West Range, University of Virginia, by six young men who desired to form a
fraternity "for the establishment of friendship on a firmer and more lasting basis
..." In its 97th year. Pi Kappa Alpha ranks as one of the oldest national fraternities,
with over 130 active collegiate chapters and 65,000 duly initiated members.
The Zeta Beta chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha was chartered on December 15, 1963.
With the establishment of the Delta State chapter, PiKA became the first fraternity
in the state to have collegiate chapters at all the colleges which have social Greeks.
The men of Zeta Beta chapter strive to excel in scholarship, leadership, and
service. The "Pikes" have won the coveted Inter-Fraternity Council Scholarship
Award for four consecutive semesters. In campus leadership, PiKA has produced
the senior class president, the SGA treasurer, the vice-president of Delta Play-
house, the president of Beta Beta Beta, and several SGA senators. The "Pikes" are
indeed honored this year to have "Mr. Delta State" among their ranks.
With the coming of the 1966-67 academic year, the men of Zeta Beta look
forward to an even better year.

fraternity in 1963. The group is now working toward full initiation into Phi Kappa
Tau fraternity.
The Phi Taus have made many outstanding contributions since their organization
at Delta State. Their members have been outstanding in Delta Playhouse. They have
also ushered at plays and concessioned at ballgames.
Through their many contributions and purposeful efforts, the Phi Taus have
certainly become an asset in the promotion of academic and social achievement
at Delta State.

"™^A DELTA
DELTA STATE COLLEGE — CLEVELAND, MISSISSIPPI
1965 was the year of Vietnam, the Selma March, the death of
Churchill, the Gemini flights. Hurricane Betsy, "Thunderball," and
"the better-have-your-cake-and-eat-it-too deals."
It was the year that found more pedestrians surrounded by even
more vehicles between the cafeteria and Doolittle; it was the year
that the flying saucer landed (somewhat unassembled) at Delta State
bearing ungotten gifts to the students; and it was also the year that
street names were proposed and proposed and proposed and still re-
mained just streets.
It was the year that found the Miss Delta moving from the old
Hill Building into Doolittle; having a change of heart and a change of
editorial staff; reading the Kama Sutra and appreciating its literary
worth.
1965 was the year that Wilma Blackmon came and left after two
previous editors had come and gone— at the loss of Delta State.
The year found Delta State consumed in a catastrophic "mascot"
question: that is, to be or not to be decisive— that was the question.
The editorial staff waved the grand-glorious, much-forgotten patriotic
banner in favor of the Vietnam controversy; it scorned, scoffed at,
and coolly banished any and all draft card burners, and it did not
support the ban on Playboy at LSU.
The war continued, the mascot remained free for some other school
to claim, the draft card burners received the gnonymous support of
"anti-demonstrationist" Cassius Clay, and, well. Playboy remained
Playboy.
Paul McCartney remained, for those who were interested, de-
bugged and de-lightful.
All in all, the Miss Delta (less puzzles and poetry, less 8X10 color-
photos of Sheldon and Quill suitable for framing, and less axes to
grind) continued its publications "o'er the land of the free" and
with a slight concern of laissez-faire with regard to the printer.
Yes. God save the printer.

BUILDING DEDICATIONS
Resulting from a long-range plan by President James M. Ewing,
the construction projects at Delta State are becoming a reality
through recent appropriations from the state and national gov-
ernments.
A $2,500,000 building explosion has been inaugurated to fur-
nish facilities for the expanding student body.
DSC's new cafeteria named for Dr. A. L. Young, emeritus Professor
of Education and Psychology, and for Miss Katie Mauldin, emeritus
Registrar, was finished in January and opened in the summer
session. Costing upwards of $650,000, the completely contempor-
ary designed structure has four dining rooms with four serving
lines which can accommodate 1000 at any one time.
Another part of the recent construction projects is women's dor-
mitory, Fugler-Hammett dedicated to Madge Quinn Fugler, first
Board of Trustees member, and to Evelyn Hammett, emeritus of
English.
Another structure devoted to the housing of men is Bond-Car-
penter, named for Willard F. Bond and Harry G. Carpenter, both
members of the Board of Trustees.
Better than $800,000 is being used for these two facilities and
some six other dormitories to supplement the present six men's
and eight women's dorms.
With these additions to the physical surroundings of Delta State,
this institution promises to be one of the instrumental educational
leaders of the future.

FELLOWSHIP OF CHRISTIAN ATHLETES
The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is a non-denominational organization
founded in 1955 by a young Oklahoma college basketball coach who thought if
athletes could endorse material things, why couldn't athletes who were Christians
endorse Christianity? He found many who were anxious to do just that. From a
very humble beginning, FCA has come to be very strong and influential organi-
zation throughout the country. Scores of professional and college athletes and
coaches, many of them top names in sports, are active in FCA telling what the
Christian way of life means to them. In the last few years many college chapters
have been formed.
FCA has three main purposes: (1) Find fellowship together for individual
growth in the Christian life; (2) To serve the cause of Christ through the church
of one's choice; (3) To render service by witnessing others.
The FCA strives to help athletes strengthen their faith in God, to realize the
spiritual side of their lives is the most important part, to be more acive in their
churches, and to realize the opportunities for influencing and witnessing.
The Delta State chapter meets twice a month and participation is open to all
athletes and other interested students.

Delta State broke several long standing records this campaign and it will take something extra
to break them in the future. Lead by Coach Horace McCool, who has compiled an outstanding
35-1 1-1 record since taking the helm in 1961, the Statesmen marched through the 1965 campaign,
posting a final 8-1 record. That single loss came by a mere point to Jacksonville (Ala.) State,
10-9, ruining all hopes of a perfect season, something the Statesmen haven't done since 1954 when
they were 8-0. In rolling up seven straight victories without a loss, the Statesmen bounced back
after the Jacksonville State loss to end the season on the winning note with a victory over Lou-
isiana College, 30-7. Other victims of the Statesmen were Tampa University, University Martin
Branch, Samford University, Troy State College, Northeast Louisiana and Arkansas State Teachers
College.
Offensively, records were broken, too. McCool's teams of bygone years have been more of a
running outfit with the slogan being "three yards and a cloud of dust." This year saw the States-
men come out of that shell and start throwing the pigskin more than ever before. In throwing
the football the Statesmen compiled 1627 yards and 16 touchdowns, completing 109 of 208 pass
attempts. By throwing the football, the Statesmen running game suffered, but still turned in a
good effort. Delta rushers gained 1459 yards the fall on 357 runs from scrimmage, a decrease of
455 yards since the 1964 team rushed for 2072 yards, but that was on 504 carries. Coach
Horace McCool gave much of the credit for the line season to the returning lettermen and Sen-
iors.

The fighting Statesmen of the hardwood could not get the magic combination to produce the
great ball team during the '65-'66 campaign. This year the Statesmen Frosh produced a great deal
of excitement for the fans while coming through with a hardwood record of 8 wins and 6 de-
feats despite the loss of two key players who moved up to the varsity. Having great ability and
desire, these boys should see much action next season.
Although, the Green and White were not nearly as successful as in past years, they came up
with some brilliant games. The highlight of the season was the 127-79 smashing of Mississippi Col-
lege which broke the school scoring record. This, plus the victories over such teams as Southeastern
La., Christian Brothers, and a third place finish in the traditional strong Oglethorpe Tournament gen-
erates the belief that this young ball club can be expected to be much stronger in the coming season.
Despite the loss of key players. Hunt, Hanes, and Hughes— Little, Young, Parker, and Kirk can
be expected to fill up any gaps left on the team. These Freshmen, plus a group of young soph-
omores who developed into experienced performers as the season ended, should provide the nu-
cleus for a strong club in the '66-'67 season.

Coach Dave (Boo) Ferriss' Delta State baseball squad finished the year with an outstanding
15-8 record.
Junior righthander Joe DiFabio of Cranford, N. J., provided the season's top mound work
as he compiled a perfect record of seven wins against no defeats.
In working 65 2/3 innings, the Delta ace struck out 97 hitters and walked only 17. He fin-
ished the year with an 0.54 earning run average, good enough to rank in the top five of the
nation.
DiFabio also aided his own cause during the course of the season with his bat, collecting 1 1
hits in his 31 trips to the plate for a hefty .355 batting average.
Catcher Ronald McMinn of Batesville, Miss., carted off the individual batting crown with a .353
average. His 24 hits tied third baseman Dixie Walker of Crystal Springs, Miss., for most hits.
Walker ended the season with a .273 average as did right fielder T. J. Byrd of Lumberton, Miss.
Not to be overlooked is the slugging of first baseman Raymond Morgan, a sophomore from
Grenada, Miss.

WILLIAM M.. _.;
KETHLEYLID. / i^'-^-^
PRESIDENT -• . -, >
926 ^
DR. WILLIAM MARION KETHLEY, scholar and educator, was pres-
ident of Delta State College from September 1926 to September
1956— thirty constructive, progressive, and active years.
When Dr. Kethley assumed his duties, there were only three
buildings and three trees on the campus. With his great faith in
God, in his country and his state, in mankind, and in the eternal
cause of education, he pursued for the institution the allusive goals
of growth and expansion.
Under his judicious counsel and sound management, and assisted
by a faculty made zealous by the multiplicity of the character of
their commander called "Bill," the college grew.
Now Delta State College stands as one of the outstanding institu-
tions of learning in our state and the South.
The Kethley Memorial Sundial was presented to the college by the
Alumni Association in 1965 after the death of Dr. Kethley in 1964.

"h takes great souls to make great schools,
Else all our walls were laid in vain."
