BEAUTIES

The  annual  beauty  revue  was  held  in  Broom 
Auditorium    Tuesday,    November    2,     1965. 

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

From  26  candidates,  10  Beauties  were  chosen 
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 
Point. 

Photographs  of  the  1966  Beauties  were  taken 
by  Robert  Pickenpaugh  of  Jackson.  One  beauty, 
Pat  Kelley  was  not  pictured.

DELTA 
DELTA 
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.

KAPPA 
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."

PI 

KAPPA 
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.

PHI 

KAPPA 
TAU 
COLONY 


Phi  Kappa  Tau  Colony  was  organized  on  Delta  State's  campus  in  the  spring  of 
1965,  after  first  being  established  as  Phi  Tau  Delta,  a  non  connectional  social 
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.

SGA 


The  purpose  of  the  Student  Government  Asso- 
ciation is  to  deal  effectively  with  all  matters  of 
student  affairs,  to  organize  the  student  body  in 
order  that  it  may  work  collectively  toward  the  bet- 
terment of  the  college,  and  to  uphold  the  best 
traditions  of  Delta  State  College. 

The  SGA  is  divided  into  three  branches  of 
government.  The  Executive  branch,  which  con- 
sists of  the  President,  Vice-President,  Secretary, 
Treasurer,  Social  Vice-PresidenJ^  Publicity  Chair- 
man, and  Attorney  General.  The  Branch  meets 
twice  a  month. 

The  Men's  Judicial  Council  and  the  Women's 
Judicial  Council  investigate  disciplinary  cases,  fix 
penalties,  and  consult  with  the  advisory  com-

"™^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.

THE  WESLEY  FOUNDATION  is  the  specialized 
ministry  of  the  Methodist  Church  fulfilling  a  min-

seeks  to  make  the  meaning  of  the  Christian  faith 
more  real  to  a  student  during  his  college  years

into  confrontation  with  the  Living  Christ  so  that 
he  may  commit  his  life  more  completely  to  Him,

HARRY  BALLARD 


Harry  Ballard,  of  Brevard,  North  Carolina,  won  the  highest 
athletic  honor  presented  at  Delta  State  College  last  spring  when 
he  was  recognized  as  last  year's  recipient  of  the  Freddy  Black 
Award. 

This  trophy  was  dedicated  to  the  memory  of  Freddy  Black, 
former  Delta  State  student  and  Statesmen  Quarterback,  who  was 
drowned  during  the  Christmas  holidays  in  1953. 

This  trophy,  awarded  primarily  on  the  basis  of  sportsmanship, 
is  presented  each  year  to  a  member  of  the  football  team  and  is 
engraved  with  his  name.

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.
