— Briefs of Epsilon Zeta
By Major Boyd
Alphas of Epsilon Zeta Chapter j
of Fayetteville State Teachers Col
lege kicked off in what one Bro
ther calls “high gear.” During the
first meeting the plans for the
Fall quarter were laid on the
table.
During the introductory pro
gram, 'Brother Eugene Hunter sat
with other Greeks and declared to
freshmen that Alpha’s place in the
world could not be filled by an^
substitute.
At the All-Greek social affair, it
was said that the “Alpha Phi Al
pha Fraternity was well repre
sented by Brothers in attendance.”
The remark.=^ and songs were stiff
competition for other organiza
tions.
During the celebration of Edu
cation for Citizenship Week, the
chapter invited the Reverend Bro
ther Franklin Wilson, pastor of the
Bethany Presbyterian Church of
Lumbcrton, to speak to the student
body. This challenging and in
spiring speaker helped the Alpha’s
program 'to rate high among
chapel programs.
During the first quarter the Ep
.^ilon Zeta Chapter selected Miss
Hilda L. Davis,' Alpha Sweetheart
of the Year at a regular campus
dinner. Brother McDaniel, presid
ing at the gathering, said that Miss
Davis “displays Alpha’s ideas of a
sweetheart — possessing outstand
ing character, ebouesent beauty,
exuberant friendliness, and high
scholarship.”
Miss Davis is a native of Kin
ston, North Carolina, and the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leo T.
R. Davis. At the college, Hilda is
a senior and a member of numer
ous organization which include
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. Miss
Davis will be crowned in the early
spring at a special Alpha Sweet
heart Program.
The Brothers of Epsilon Zeta
would like to extend a hand of
welcome to our new brother, Cal
vin McDonald. The Fraternity
would like to congratulate him for
in American Colleges and
Universities.
Brothers Eugene Hunter and
Luther McKeithan played their
last season of football with the
Fayetteville Broncos. They were
two of the outstanding players of
this year’s team and with them
the Broncos shared the glory in
their victory over Johnson C.
Smith at our annual Homecoming
game.
A New Day
Ralph Waldo Emerson held no
brief with those who cry over
spilt milk. And though he had no
notion of the turmoil to face those
who would live in the 20th cen
tury, his philosophy is particularly
apt: “Finish every day and be
done with it. You have done what
you could. Some blunders and ab
surdities no doubt crept in; forget
them as soon as you can. Tomor
row is a nev/ day; begin it well
and serenely and with too high a
spirit to be cumbered with your
old nonsense. This day is all that
is good and fair. It is too dear,
with its hopes and invitations, to
waste a moment on the yester
days.”

Briefs Of
Williams Hall
J. F. Cummings
The men of Williams Hall Dor
mitory, directed by Dr. Joseph
Knuckles and Professor William
King, had their first meeting early
in the school year to formulate
plans for the year’s activities. The
group chose strong men as officers
to lead their activities. These men
included:
President, Luther Whitted; Vice-
President, James Ebron; Secretary,
Nathaniel Davis; Treasurer, Har
vey Daye; Representative to the
Student Council, Melvin Thomp
son.
These men pledged to uphold
the ideals and standards set by
the dormitory association, and to
render services to the best of their
abilities,
Williams Hall has begun to
work. We have sponsored two open
house activities, which called for
much planning and preparation on
the part of the members. Future
plans include a Christmas project,
a Sunday School and Chapel pro
gram, and entertainment for the
girls of the campus. Also, the
mighty basketball team of the
dormitory is practicing for an “all
winning” victory.
Bickett Hall News
The Bickett Hall Dormitory As
sociation was organized during the
first quarter of this school year.
The following officers and coun
selors were elected:
President--Dawn Gloria Diggs
Vice President Ernestine
Thompson
Secretary Dorothy Smith
Assistant Secretary Beulah
Brown ^
Treasurer Mrs. Gannoway
Counselors:
Irene Downey, Jerusha McCoy,
Everlina Foye, Elizabeth William
son, Katie McNeill and Edna Glas-
pie.
A number of girls from Bickett
Hall attended the Charm Clinic
which was held at the E. E. Smith
High School. New and various
ideas presented have developed a
more courteous attitude among our
group. The feeling that you
“Look” as well as you can is the
smallest courtesy that you can
show yourself.
One Friday night before the
holidays, the girls surprised our
counselor, Mrs. Gannoway, with
a birthday party. Delicious re
freshments were enjoyed. Mrs.
Gannoway received many beauti
ful gifts.
Our Christmas party was given
on Dec. 14, 1959. We are hoping
everyone enjoyed a very merry
and enjoyable holiday.
We are anticipating a continued
prosperous and successful school
year.
