Major Boyd
Epsilon Zeta Chapter of the
Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity is
looking into the future and is
planning the activities for the
coming school year. However, at
this time, it is appropriate to re-
viewf and evaluate the activities
that were held during the past
year.
To begin things off we will eva
luate our special activities which
included a dance entitled the
“Crazy Hat Dance.” At this dance
Mr. Charles Click won first place
with a well decorated hat and all
who attended the dance said it
was just “wonderful.” Brothers
Jimmy Cummings, Eugene Hunter
Lewis Bullock, Calvin McDonald
and Luther McKeithan along with
pledges John Smith and Charles
Click made a very impressive
showing in the intramural basket
ball.
During the second portion of the
school year we participated in two
chapel programs. For our Found
ers’ Day Program, we invited Bro
ther Ross E. Townes, Professor
of Physical Education at North
Carolina College at Durham, to
speak. This program was followed
by a tea given at the Recreation
Room of Smith Dormitory. The
next program was the Crowning
of our Sweetheart, Miss Hilda
Davis. She is a graduating senior
of F. S. T. C. and a member of the
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.
Brother Jimmy Cummings ad
ventured down to Columbia, South
Carolina, to the Annual Southern
Regional Convention. He reported
that his trip was very informative
as well as enjoyable.
As five brothers pass through
State’s halls with graduation. Ep
silon Zeta promises a long life as
it is remaining in such capable
hands as Calvin McDonald and
Lewis Bullock. Those brothers
being graduated are Major Boyd,
Jimmy Cummings,' Eugene Hun-
-terj -dlyde McDaniel an6 Luther
McKeithan.
None of our goals could have
been attained were it not for hav
ing such outstanding personalities
as Dr. Bradley, Mr. Williams, and
Mr. Bacote to direct our activities.
As a token of appreciation, our
“hats are off” to these persons
along with Mrs. Bradley for her
fine hospitality.
During each week we were able
to entertain many fellows who
were interested in joining a fra
ternity but this entertainment
would have been impossible if it
weren’t for the help of our active
pledges. They are Roy Collins,
Charles Click, Melvin Thompson,
John Smith, and Cephas Spaulding.

Sigma
Round-Up
The Pi Chapter of Phi Beta
Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated,
has had a very thrilling and event
ful year. One of the long-to-be re
membered events on campus was
the Crowning of our charming and
beautiful sister, Fannie Tyson, as
Sigma Sweetheart, 1960-61.” The
Sweetheart was brought into fo
cus when Little Brothers Donald
Taylor and Nathaniel Marshall es
corted the rocket Cresnik #1 down
to earth.,
In* observance of “Bigger and
Better Business Week” we climax
ed its celebration with a dynamic
program on March 27, 1960, in the
J. W. Seabrook Auditorium. Bro
ther Attorney J. Lewis, President
of National Finance Corporation
Washington, D. C., spoke to the
college family and guest on the
theme; “Business’s Challenge to
Youth.” A reception was given in
his honor immediately after the
program in the Science Building
Sisters Martha Green, Ada Alston
and Cherridine Birt of the Zeta
Phi Beta Sorority served as hos
tesses.
The fraternity has participated
in and sponsored many activities
this school year and is planning
for even more next year.
Congratulations to the graduat
ing class of 1960 and especially to
our eight graduating sisters. We
are wishing for you much success
and happiness; and to the other
students, we will be looking to
see each of you in September, after
a prosperous summer vacation.
OPPORTUNITY
An Indian Princess, on coming
of age, was given a basket and
told she might pick the finest ears
of corn in a given row. The only
condition was that she was to
choose as she went along. She
could not retrace her steps.
She admired the fine quality of
the corn before her; and as she
felt ane oar aftor aneth-er she left
them on the stalk, always thinking
what better ears lay ahead. Sud
denly, and to her dismay, she
came to the end of the row—and
she had gathered none of them.
DELTA DOINGS
Greetings, everyone, from the
scores of Delta Xi Chapter. We
are hoping that your Easter va
cation was pleasant and that you
had no after effects from eating
so many eggs.
Now let’s take a bi'ief look into
the Delta Doings of the past and
present.
On April 1, 1960, April Fool’s
Day, the Deltas were hostess to
the college family and friends at
their second annual spring dance,
“An Affair to Remember.” For this
occasion the gymnasium was beau_
tifully decorated with streamers
of red and white crepe paper; to
give the effect of a curtain to set
off the tables from the dance floor.
The beautiful music was furnished
by the “Happy Jacks” from Fort
Bragg.
In conjunction with our annual
library project, Soror Doris Goss,
President of the Delta XI Chapter
of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, on
behalf of the sorority presented a
book to Miss Alice Jackson erl-
titled, “ The Problem of Delin-
guency.”
Now that we are nearing the
close of another school term, seven
sorors must break from the chain
of sisterhood and venture out into
the unknown. They are Sorors
Lorraine Manley, Doris Goss, An
nie Edmonds, Shirley Langston,
Constance Anderson, Pearl Coun
cil, and Flora McLaurin. With
mixed feelings of gladness and
sorrow in our hearts we will say
good-bye. Not only to our sorors
but to other Greeks, friends, class
mates, teachers and our wonderful
Dean and President. We say a
fond farewell with dear cherished
memories of the happy years we
have been together here.
Constance Anderson, Reporter
Miss Doris E. Goss, President, Delta XI Chapter, Delta
Sigma Theta Sorority, is seen presenting: a book entitled “The
Problem of Delinquency” by Sheldon Glueck, to Miss Alice A.
Jackson, Librarian. In acceptinff for the Library, Miss Jackson
said that a Librarian is never happier than when accepting' a
book for the Library’s collection. She commended the Deltas
for this worthy projfect. The gift of a book to the Chesnutt
Library is an annual project of the Delta under-graduate chap
ter and is usually presented during National Library Week.
Miss Goss, a member of the Senior Class, is from Durham
N. C.

Alpha Kappa Mu
Convocation
Velma Street, Reporter
On February 18, 1960, four neo
phytes were inducted into the Rho
Beta Chi Chapter of Alpha Kappa
Mu Honor Society at the Annual
Convocation which was held in
the J. W. Seabrook Auditorium.
The newly inducted members are
Catharyne Butler, Nannie Crosby,
David McNair, and Levi Mont
gomery.
The Convocation Address was
delivered by Dr. J. W. Seabrook,
President-Emeritus of Fayetteville
State Teachers College. Dr. Jones,
President of Fayetteville State
Teachers College, presented certi
ficates to the new members and
congratulated them on their a-
chievement.
Alpha Kappa Mu members par
ticipating on the program were
Evelyn Boone, Robert Q. Gordon,
Doris Goss, Clyde Oliver Mc
Daniel, Jr., Frederick Rodgers,
and Velma Street.
The college Instructor one fine
June day was startled to learn
from an exam paper that the
"American Revolution wrote nasty
letters to the French Revolution.”
It seems that the student’s text
book at one point stated that the
“American Revolution correspond
ed roughly with the French Re
volution.”

KAPPA IN A WHIRL
As Third Quarter tip-toed into
existence, we found sixteen Alpha
Kappa Alpha sorors still overflow,
ing with that old “AKA” spirit",
they refuse to think of the May
29th graduation and loss of Sorors
Hilda Davis, Evelyn Boone, Bar
bara Hankins, Velma Street, and
Lillie Allen. Although there will
be a loss of these faithful Sorors,
AKA will always be embedded in
their hearts.
With hands joined, the Sorors
successfully celebrated their an
nual Founders’ Day Program. The
impact of the address delivered
by Soror Sylvia Payne of Saint
Augustine’s College left an im
print on the minds of everyone
in attendance.
Along with the social whirl came
the “Top Ten Dance Contest”
featuring higti school students in
the city and county. The thought
' of a dance contest brought smiles
to these young faces but even
more joy to Washington Drive
Junior High School which was a-
warded the trophy for winning
the contest.
The Hot Dog Contest was an
other social event that was very
enjoyable. Benefits from these
events will go to the scholarship
fund which the Sorority contri
butes to yearly.
Sorors Eve Cordon and Gertina
Keyes, along with’ some other
Sorors, attended The Regional
Conference which was held at A
& T College, in Greensboro, North
I Carolina, April 22-24. Soror Gen
ieva Holmes, former Dean of Wo
men of this Institution, was hos
tess.
With the inspirational guidance
of our beloved Advisor, Soror
Mary Terry Eldridge, Delta Alpha
Chapter of Alpha Sorority has had
a very fruitful year.
