All the activities of man are divided into two large divisions —
work and play. This fact is apparent in our school life, for we
may classify all that we do either as curricula or extra-curricula.
We feel that one division supplements the other and that the
well-rounded college life must include active participation in
each. With this in mind, we have divided our annual into two
distinct sections — curricular and extra curricular.

The theme of the 1943 LION is "Holding higher the torch of
learning," and its purpose is to stress the importance of higher
education in war-time. Higher education means the thorough
application of our time, skill, and energy in the classroom,
coupled with diversion in the various clubs and student organi-
zations. By placing proper emphasis on each, we hope to be
able to create a clear picture of the college year that will be of
value to you in the years to come.

We, the members of the annual staff, as a visible evidence of our
appreciation of one who has furnished us with inspiration, made us
conscious of the highest values, and given us nobler aims, dedicate this
edition of the LION to Miss Loris Shipman.

Because we have had the privilege of knowing her and being influenced
by her great life, we are proud to say with Tennyson that "We are a part
of all that we have met."

I want to congratulate the Annual Staff on the selection of the Theme "Educa-
tion" for this Annual. It is one indication that the students of this institution are
thinking about the essential things of life.

As we come to the close of this session I want to thank the members of the
student body for their fine cooperation and for the splendid attitude maintained
throughout this year. We have labored this session under the most trying
conditions ever to face a student body but you have pursued your task
each day with a determination to accomplish that which you set out to do at
the beginning of this year.

As I write this the Reserves of our student body are leaving to be inducted
into the Armed Forces of the United States. I know that they will go forth
with the same determination to make good in the Army as they have in this
school. There are other members of the student body who will never have the
opportunity to be inducted into the Armed Forces of their country but each,
I am sure, will do his best in Civilian Life to bring victory for the American
Cause. Education has been the vital force that has made America what it is
today. Our forefathers handed down to us the rights and opportunities that
we enjoy and I have every assurance that the students of the East Mississippi
Junior College will make whatever sacrifices necessary to protect these
rights and liberties for future generations.

Your friend

Since the beginning of the school year, each
class in the East Mississippi Junior College has
been called upon to give many of its boys for
service in the Armed Forces. These boys have
dutifully given up their school careers and gone
to answer their country's call for help. It is here
that we remember them and the noble cause
which they serve.

During this time of world crisis, the International Relations
Club has taken on a new and vital meaning for its members. Its
purpose — to fix the attention of students on the underlying
principles of world conditions — has been carried out during the
year by meetings held twice a month at which members join
in round-table discussions of latest world developments.

The annual banquet, carrying out a Washington's Birthday
theme, was one of the most outstanding activities of the Club
this year.

The greatest work of the Club has been the selling of war
stamps and bonds.

Throughout the year Le Petit Theatre, sponsored by Miss
Loris Shipman, has been active in the successful production of
a one-act play once a month. Not only does the Club endeavor
to develop whatever dramatic talents — whether as directors,
stage managers, electricians, or actors — the membership may
have, but it also helps the student body as a whole, before
which all performances are given, to become more appreciative
of the qualities of good drama.

The climax of the year's activities was a one-act folk comedy,
Cottie Mourns.

The Sock and Buskin Society is one of the two dramatic
clubs in school. The plays which it has given in chapel and at
the regular bi-monthly meetings have displayed very good
talent. The society has endeavored to give experience in acting,
directing, and stage management. This has been one of the
most active clubs in school and has proved to be a real enjoy-
ment for all who have taken part.

To increase the student's appreciation of the language,

Cercle Francais. Through bi-monthly meetings the members
have given programs contributing to a better understanding of
the French people and a more extensive knowledge of their

This club, organized to carry on scientific research in the

its members who are intensely interested in this school subject —
which steadily grows more important — to improve their manipu-
lative skill, perform experiments which are not prescribed by
the regular laboratory manual, and become better informed on
modern scientific developments.

The Baptist Training Union resumed its activities at the begin-

was to develop the quality of church leadership among the
students in order that they might be fitted to lead in church
organizations. Through the study of Christ and his teachings,
members of the B.T.U. have striven to exemplify Christ in their
daily activities and measure up to His standards of life.

The B.T.U. is one of the factors on the college campus that
has contributed directly to a spiritual influence.

The Commercial Club, sponsored by Mr. Dilts, has served
effectively this year as an aid to those studies which deal with
and are related directly to commerce. This club seeks to add
width to the alert student's knowledge of the business world and
to develop a personality for each person that will be a valuable
asset in the field of work that he has chosen.

The Home Economics Club was organized with the aim of
giving supplementary nutritional education. "Nutrition for De-
fense" was accepted as the theme of the club. Occasional pro-
grams were given to the public to help emphasize the impor-
tance of well-planned meals in the building of strong bodies.

Attention was also given to clothing. Members of the club
learned that being well-dressed is being appropriately dressed.

From time to time throughout the year, the members have put
into practice things that will enter into the making of the better
homes of tomorrow.

QJootoatl

Although we cannot claim a wholly victorious season from the standpoint
of scores, we can claim victory won by the spirit of the cooperation and good
sportsmanship our boys have displayed. We are proud of them. They have
won recognition as players who have fought hard; ones with ability to lose
without becoming discouraged and ability to win with an humble spirit.

Much credit for the fine spirit of the players goes to coach Childres who has
given his best of time and effort to the players.
