President  to 
Move  in  April 

This  April,  President  Paul  R.  Beall 
and  family  will  move  into  the  former 
Alex  Smith  home  at  3407  Tuxedo 
Road. 

The  president's  new  residence  was 
bought  by  the  college  as  an  endowment 
investment. 

The  house  and  its  seven  acres  of 
land,  built  in  1925  and  located  17 
minutes  from  the  campus,  was  formally 
purchased  on  February  23  through 
trust  officer  Harvey  Hill  and  the  Citi- 
zens and  Southern  Bank.  Oglethorpe 
took  possession  on  March   1. 

Dr.  Beall  is  considering  giving  the 
two-story  residence  a  name  connected 
in  some  way  with  the  history  of  General 
James  Edward  Oglethorpe.

While  the  basic  structure  is  sound, 
some  redecorating  of  the  house  and 
grounds  will  be  done.  The  kitchen  will 
be  remodeled,  an  elevator  removed, 
and  other  minor  rennovations  will  be 
made.  Outside,  the  wash  house  wUl  be 
converted  to  a  small  guest  house,  the 
formal  garden  will  be  tended,  and  a 


Rear  view 

circular  driveway  may  be  built. 

The  already  existing  guest  house  he- 
hind  the  President's  new  home  is  fully 
equipped  and  has  three  bedrooms. 

Real  estate  experts  and  member  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees  described  the 
entire  purpose  as  "extremely  wise"  and 
a  "real  bargain."

Humanics  Program 
to  Close 

The  American  Humanics  Foundation 
has  decided  to  eliminate  the  Humanics 
unit  at  Oglethorpe  College  at  the  end  of 
the  spring  quarter. 

Mr.  H.  Roe  Bartle,  executive  leader 
of  the  foundation  made  the  announce- 
ment recently  in  Kansas  City,  home 
office  of  the  Foundation. 

The  small  number  of  students  en- 
rolled in  the  unit  was  the  main  reason 
for  the  cancellation. 

The  college  plans  to  continue  similar 
training  so  those  students  akeady  en- 
rolled in  the  program  can  complete 
their  study  with  a  broader  emphasis  on 
the  area  of  social  work.  The  continua- 
tion of  the  training  will  be  offered  by 
the  Division  of  Educational  and  Be- 
haviorial  Sciences. 

The  Humanics  program  was  de- 
signed to  train  young  men  and  women 
who  choose  professional  youth  work  as 
their  field.

Georgia  Educational  Association  Convention  was  held  this  year  in  Rich's  Magnolia 
Room  March  26,  1965.  It  was  attended  by  almost  100  alumni  and  was  termed 
most  successful. 

Gov.  Cari  Sanders  was  the  guest  speaker  and  gave  a  very  exceUent  and  informa- 
tive message.  He  was  presented  with  the  School  Bell  Award.  The  School  Bell 
Award  is  presented  only  to  persons  who  have  shown  an  outstanding  interest  in 
the  field  of  education. 

Another  distinguished  alumna  was  also  presented  the  School  Bell  Award    She

member  of  the  teacher  profession  and  was  the  seventh  grade  teacher  of  Gov 
Sanders.

Oglethorpe  to  Revise  Curriculum, 
Double  Enrollment 

Three  areas  of  Oglethorpe  College  life  will  undergo  changes  beginning  with 
the  fall  of  1965.  Dr.  Paul  Beall,  president  of  the  College,  has  announced  that 
decisions  to  offer  a  revised  curriculum  to  an  increased  student  body  on  a 
trimester  system. 

The  trimester  system  is  a  division  of  the  year  into  three  academic  units,  each 
being  sixteen  weeks  long.  The  decision  to  change  from  the  present  quarter  system 
to  tlje  trimester  system  was  made  after  other  schools'  experience  with  trimester 
programs  were  studied. 

Changes  in  the  curriculum  were  made  in  order  to  add  "new  scope".  Students 
wUl  be  able  to  major  "in  any  field  in  which  one  would  expect  a  fully  progressive 
liberal  arts  school  to  have  a  major." 

Under  the  new  plan,  required  courses  are  to  be  taken  during  the  first  two  years 
and  this  core  program  will  be  offered  in  each  trimester. 

Enrollment  is  to  be  doubled  by  the  beginning  of  the  fall  term.  Of  the  eight 
hundred  expected,  four  hundred  are  to  be  freshmen.  Enrollment  is  to  be  progres- 
sively increased  until  1967-68  when  two  thousand  students  are  expected  to  be 
enrolled.  Of  these.  Fifteen  hundred  are  to  be  campus  students  and  500  commuter 
students. 

New  dormitory  construction  is  scheduled  to  begin  this  summer.  The  present 
dormitories  are  being  renovated  and  filled  to  capacity. 

A  new  catalogue  will  be  issued  outlining  the  new  courses  and  requirements  for 
major  study.

Language  Laboratory 
to  be  Built 

As  part  of  the  expansion  plans  of 
Oglethorpe  College,  it  is  announced 
that  building  will  begin  this  summer  on 
the  construction  of  a  modem,  fully- 
equipped  language  laboratory  to  be 
used  beginning  in  the  fall  term. 

"The  laboratory",  according  to  Dr. 
Arthur  Bieler,  Chairman  of  the  De- 
partment of  Foreign  Language  at  Ogle- 
thorpe, "will  be  as  advanced  as  anything 
in  Atlanta  or  the  Southeast." 

Consisting  of  twenty-four  student 
positions,  there  will  be  eighteen  posi- 
tions which  will  be  for  recording  and 
playback  and  six  positions  for  playback 
only.  A  console  in  the  control  room 
will  make  possible  the  constant  super- 
vision of  the  students. 

The  major  use  of  the  laboratory  will 


Faculty  Grants-in-Aid 
Program  Instituted 

Dr.  George  C.  Seward,  Dean  of 
Oglethorpe  College,  announces  three 
receipients  of  grants  in  a  nenwly  estab- 
lished grants-in-aid  program  at  Ogle- 
thorpe for  faculty  research. 

Dr.  Martin  Abbott,  professor  of  his- 
tory, will  further  investigate  the  history 
of  the  southern  negro  during  the  re- 
construction period  of  the  South.  He 
wUl  approach  it  from  a  social,  cultural 
(continued  on  page  4) 

be  on  a  library  basis  as  is  used  in  most 
colleges  equipped  with  recording  tapes. 
It  is  planned  for  first  and  second  year 
students.  Foreign  language  is  learned 
more  easily  and  as  a  tool  the  laboratory 
is  as  important  to  the  language  student 
as  a  library  is  to  a  history  student.

Swing,  c4t  3t  ,  ,  , 

Recently  Atlanta  opened  its  new  18 
million  dollar  stadium.  It  is  a  tremen- 
dous arena.  It  was  built  on  faith  in  a 
great  city.  They  started  building  with- 
out money  and  without  a  team.  The 
important  step  was  getting  an  enthusi- 
astic start. 

Many  baseball  players  will  step-up 
to  the  plate  in  the  years  to  come.  Some 
wiU  strike-out  without  even  swinging  at 
the  ball  with  the  bat.  They  will  have 
the  bat  resting  on  their  shoulder.  Other 
players  will  get  two  strikes  and  swing 
at  the  third.  At  least,  they  will  have 
done  their  best. 

So  it  is  with  our  Alumni  Association, 
we  must  continue  to  "swing  at  it"! 
Much  progress  has  been  made  at  Ogle- 
thorpe in  a  short  period  of  time.  With 
continued  support,  hard  work,  and  re- 
newed interest  our  ahna  mater  will  con- 
tinue to  move  forward. 

Many  thanks  to  those  who  have 
helped  make  this  year  a  progressive 
one.  Let's  all  keep  "swinging  at  it"  and 
keep  the  bat  off  our  shoulders.

Oglethorpe  Sports 


Oglethorpe  College  baseball  coach 
Billy  Carter  believes  one  thing:  His 
Stormy  Petrels  will  win  more  games 
than  last  year. 

"We've  got  more  schedule," 
laughed  Billy.  "That's  one  reason,  es- 
pecially if  you  think  in  terms  of  per- 
centages. But  there's  another,  more 
logical,  reason  we  should  win  more  this 
year.  The  team  is  in  better  shape,  posi- 
tions stable." 

For  review,  the  Petrels  were  5-12 
last  year.  Anytime  a  change  had  to  be 
made  in  a  game,,  it  could  easily  effect 
four  or  five  positions.  As  a  result,  the 
team  could  never  hold  an  edge. 

However,  when  Carter's  call  to  in- 
vade Anderson  Field  for  spring  practice 
went  out  this  season,  a  number  of  eager 
young  freshmen  (with  talent)  and  a 
couple  of  capable  transfers  answered. 

This,  then,  is  how  it  lines  up  for 
Oglethorpe's  22-game  schedule. 


Up  the  middle  (catcher,  second  and 
shortstop  and  center  field)  is  definitely 
strong.  Freshman  Larry  Freeman,  a 
5-9,  165  pounder  from  Chamblee,  is 
behind  the  plate  and  he  may  be  the 
most  genuine  performer  there  in  almost 
a  decade.  Good  arm,  good  hands  and  a 
good  thinker. 

Out  at  second  is  Larry  Shattles,  a  re- 
turnee. He  is  expected  to  team  with 
transfer  Jerry  Brown  (a  campbell  of 
Smyrna  graduate  who  spent  two  years 
at  Rollins  College  in  Florida)  to  make 
a  great  shortstop-to-second  and  vice- 
versa  combination.  Brown's  ability  to 
hold  down  short,  with  Shattles  on  sec- 
ond, takes  pressure  off  other  men  who, 
in  the  past,  have  been  forced  to  pull 
double  duty. 

Centerfield  is  the  sole,  undisputed 
property  of  Larry  Abner,  team's  lead- 
ing hitter  last  year  at  .324,  a  fine  defen- 
sive man  and  a  pitcher  of  credit  when 
the  occasion  demands  it.  Little  worry 
there.

Right  and  left  (first  and  third  lines) 
will  also  be  manfully  handled,  but  will 
switch  according  to  the  pitching  opposi- 
tion— right  or  left  handers.  The  mere 
fact  that  Carter  can  do  this  indicates 
his  reserve  program  is  strong. 

Jimmy  Tumlin,  transfer,  is  a  leading 
first  baseman  and  will  be  available  for 
the  mound.  Ben  Hargrove  is  a  tough 
glove,  good  arm  at  third  and  wdll  also 
pitch.  Wayne  Johnson,  another  trans- 
fer, could  come  strong  in  the  outfield, 
where  Charles  Steppe,  Bob  Moreland, 
Aubrey  Whitaker  and  Roy  Cowart 
(also  a  pitcher)  will  be. 

Pitching — the  must  of  baseball — 
might  well  be  the  "most"  for  the  Petrels. 
At  least  it  has  maturity,  depth  and 
ability. 

Hargrove,  Cowart,  Timilin  and  fresh- 
man lefthander  Dick  Davis  are  the 
names  for  pitching  responsibility.  But 
primarily  it  will  be  the  first  two. 

Cowart,  in  his  fourth  year,  is  no 
Bob  Feller.  In  fact,  he's  more  like 
Blaze  Starr.  He  teases — slow  curves, 
changeups,  aggravating  little  drops. 
You  just  find  it  hard  to  hit  him.  Har- 
grove has  a  little  more  zip,  but  is  not  as 
frustrating.  Davis  is  good  control  and 
will  be  used  as  a  long,  middle  and 
short  reliefer. 

"We're  going  to  have  to  play  all  our 
games  the  hard  way,"  said  Carter. 
"Though  we've  got  more  on  schedule, 
none  are  easy,  and  every  man  will  have 
to  give  completely  to  give  us  a  good 
season.  Really,  I  think  we  might  do 
well.  Weather  hurt  us  in  early  practice 
and  the  boys  are  just  now  rounding  out 
in  shape.  So  you  can  never  tell.  We're 
giving  it  everything  we  can." 

In  other  sports  news  around  the 
Oglethrope  campus,  the  tennis  team 
which  had  played  a  fine,  competitive 
schedule  for  the  last  few  years,  did  not 
get  enough  reporting  for  practice  to 
merit  forming  a  squad,  and  there  was 
no  schedule  made.
