Two world wars. A depression. The coming of mechanized, instantaneous travel. The invasion of outer space, putting the moon, for which man has so long reached, almost at finger's touch. The rapid development of communications media. The birth of most of the people now inhabiting the earth .... The list is endless, and too well known to be of value here. But they've been eventful, these 75 years since 1892.

For Millsaps they've included . . . Growth, populationally and physically. Buildings burned and replaced, ideas born and abandon- ed. The coming and going of faces, student and faculty. Names: George C. Swearingen, J. Reese Lin, J. M. Sulli- van, G. L. Harrell, M. C. White, A. P. Hamilton - - but here one runs into trouble, for the list is too extensive and too subjective to be included whole. And, at long last, national recognition of Millsaps' quality through the awarding of a Ford Foundation "regional center of excellence" grant. The years have come and gone and each year has had its own achievements and disappointments. Multiply these by 75 and one sees why a 75th anniversary is worth celebrat- ing. As long ago as 1850 Millsaps became a gleam in some- one's eye. The idea of establishing a good Christian college within the reach of every young man desiring an education, located in the state of Mississippi, was born in the mind of 17-year-old Reuben Webster Millsaps on a long and arduous journey to Indiana in search of his own education. Forty \, years passed before he was able to implement his idea, but the day came in the late 1880's when the desire to establish -,*«<*:> ' <>.-> a Methodist college in Mississippi became manifest. Reuben Webster Millsaps, grown prosperous through the years by his own sense of business and entitled to the rank • ^ ..-. « V»^ ^, .'.,; --IV: V '-- %- ' : - w;. of major through his participation in the War Between the States, offered to give $50,000 toward the establishment of such a college if the Methodists of the state would give a like "-SJ^rfll amount. And so, on February 21, 1890, a charter was granted for Millsaps College - - for the name Millsaps had been chosen despite the Major's protests. Jackson was selected as the site, and that year workmen began construction of the build- ings which would house the new school. The times change. The site chosen was not even in the city limits when construction began. Fields of corn and cot- ton separated the business district from the school. Jackson's population was 9,000, compared with its present 165,000. The campus itself occupied only the western part of the current holdings. Adjacent was Jackson College, a Negro school which occupied the Elsinore Plantation home and a classroom building. Tales abound, propagated by who knows

By Mack B. Swearingen Major Reuben Webster Millsaps, for whom this college is named, would have been remarkable in any human context. My favorite memory of him is one of looking out a front upstairs window of our old house at 1501 North State Street, and of watching my father walk down the steps to the street and step up into the trim little buggy of a trim old man. This would be just after daylight, and the weather would be cold, and I could see my father's breath, and the old man's breath, and the horse's breath, and the breath of Doc, my father's English setter, who was as near- ly human as any four-legged organism could be. This, of course, is a hunting scene. The trim old man in the buggy was Maj- or Millsaps, and he and Father were up to their favorite pastime. They were going out early on an autumn morning to shoot quail, and I can not even guess how many mornings I heard Father get up and get out, and then - - after he

had passed my door - - how many times

I went up to the front of the house to watch him start out towards the north. He would come back in the afternoon with a dozen or more birds, and that night we would have a feast. If you have seen the portrait of the Major in the Library you will know what he looked like, for the portrait is almost photographic in its accuracy. The little buggy in which he would call for Father on those chilly mornings was a kind of trademark for him, and I'm certain every person in Jackson knew it at first glance. It was always drawn by a small bay mare, and it was hard to decide v.hat gave the sharpest impression of Major Millsaps "belongs to every age of man, as this college attests. elegance - - whether' the Major, or the He was aware ot the chronic need in all men, and his need to face it." .

beautiful little mare, or the slick little vehicle - - but together they made an unforgettable picture. But this hunting scene may give a wrong impression, in that it suggests a warm, close friendship between the Maj- or and Father. This is not the case. The two remained friends from the time that Father joined the first faculty of this college until the Major died in 1916, but they were never really close except in hunting season, and there is a story be- hind this. The Major once heard that Father had the best bird dog in town - - that is. Doc - - and asked to borrow him. Father told the Major that Doc would not hunt for anybody except him, but Major Millsaps was not accustomed to having his authority questioned and said he could handle Doc all right. He returned later, of course, without a single bird, and reported that Doc had absolute- ly refused even to get out of the buggy, let alone hunt. So the Major had no option but to take along Father, as the price of Doc, and thus was born a part- nership of many years' standing. The Major drove himself everywhere in the little rig that I have so lovingly described, and I do not remember ever seeing him in an automobile. He was a man of means and could have had any number of cars, and I feel fairly certain that he must have had one at some time or another. But what is most revealing in this situation is that my memory fixes him in that buggy, and that I cannot see him anywhere else. He belonged in that era, and for me he will stay there, where The turn-of-the-century faculty included, from the he fits. But he belonged in another way left, (standing) James Adolphus Moore, G. W.

Once when one of my friends was having trouble finding the money he had to have in order to remain in college, my father said to me, "If Major Millsaps were alive there would be no problem; he never once refused to help a student in a case like this." The Major knew from his own experience what it meant to feel a need for knowledge, and feel at the same time the stinging pain of not having the means to get it. Let us be grateful that he had the vision to trans- late what he could feel into what we could use. . . . and the others of the triumvirate

It was probably Bishop Galloway, more than anyone else, who stimulated and directed the moral drive that brought the college into existence. Major Millsaps supported him all the way, and gave the largest single gift of money towards getting the college under way.

Because the y remembered . . they - 1,576 alumni and numerous friends - gave to

Millsaps College in 1965-66. They gave for a variety of

reasons — but they gave to keep Millsaps strong. For

the most part the money went into the operating budget of the College; in other words, it helped to keep the lights burning and the heat going, the grass cut and the build- ings swept, the teachers teaching and the typewriters clicking. For other needs, the ones mentioned by President Graves on the previous pages, additional funds, and great amounts of them, must be forth- coming.

On these pages, however, Millsaps College wishes to send a thank-you note to those who have helped to make

it possible for her to celebrate her 75th birthday; apolo- gies are offered to those who may have been inadver- tently omitted. The gifts are acknowledged through the Report of Giving, 1965-66

Special Alumni Fund Projects The concept of annual giving by alumni to the nation's colleges and universities is one of th cornerstones of support for higher education. It has been called the "bread and butter" money whic keeps these institutions in business. At Millsaps, annual giving by alumni began in 1956 under th Alumni Fund program and has grown steadily since that time. Each year a number of non-alumi direct their gifts through the Alumni Fund. This giving takes many forms. Most contributions recei\ ed are unrestricted in nature and can be used to meet the most pressing needs of the College. Man gifts credited to the Alumni Fund are restricted in nature, however, and directed to a project i which the donor is particularly interested. Both kinds of gifts are needed and greatly appreciated. Special projects which were aided through gifts credited to the 1965-66 Alumni Fund are liste below: ;

One way of thinking about it is to try to imagine a^ United States of America without these institutions of higher education, and without the graduates they havej —and produced.

Not an egghead and not a meathead,

Weller is a good example of a fine mixture of brains and brawn.

Lonely end receives pass.

Ted's father died when Ted was ten years old. His mother, Mrs. Neal O. Weller, of Chatham, Mississippi, had the responsibility of rearing him and his older brother and sister. The result in Ted's case is a 6'2, 190-pounder with charm and person- ality to match his good looks, with modesty, with no trace of snobbery, and with consideration for others. This summer Ted, who just turned 21, is getting some practical experi- ence in geology by working for Delta Exploration Company. He'll do his graduate work in geology, doesn't know yet just what he'll do. "I'll get my Master's and then see what the job opportunities are," he says. Ted is an officer in his fraternity, lives at KA house.

8 Weller, far left, carried flag in KA march prior to Old South Ball.

Last year's game with Sewanee was the highlight of Ted's sports career. It was a dramatic game, with the Majors pulling an upset victory over an old, powerful rival. Says Ted, "We had lost to them for several years and were trailing badly at the half. Then we beat them 40-28. It was something to remember."

Ted thinks that what hurts the Millsaps sports pro- gram most is "an inherited attitude that sports just aren't important at Millsaps, that scholastic ability is all that counts."

Then again there's the financial aspect. Ted is an advocate of the training table. "Some people who have to buy their own food don't eat as much as they should, as much as they would at a training table. I think what we need most is a training table.

"There is an idea around that Millsaps is too hard.

I think some very good athletes are lost because they think they can't pass the work at Millsaps and that ath- letics aren't emphasized enough.

"But the hardness is over-emphasized.

"There's an advantage to having smart athletes, and they can be smart athletically without being scholastical- ly inclined.

"I don't disrespect people who are sports-minded, the big-time enthusiasts whose major interest is sports, or the so-called meathead. They're showing interest in a field that they are most capable in. Some people like to distribute their interests; others are most suited to keeping their interest in one field." Where do athletics fit in?'

Many students have part-time jobs.

10 and some are heavily involved in extracurricular activi- ties and campus social life.

Simply maintaining good health and emotional sta- bility in the face of all these demands requires strength, stamina, and intelligent personal habits. Regular exercise also produces desirable psycholog- ical results. It develops grace and economy of move- ment and improves posture and overall appearance. It also develops the ability to perform skillfully in sports, dance, and other activities, yielding satisfaction and self- esteem.

According to Robert Sorani (Circuit Training), "In years past, the activity required by an individual and his specific performance of daily tasks was often ade- quate to maintain a desirable level of fitness. This is not so today, with the machine rapidly replacing man in the performance of energy-expending tasks. More and more, man must rely on some form of 'extra' recreational ac- tivity to meet his basic needs for exercise." The emphasis on physical fitness in recent years has given rise to numerous and varying definitions of the term. In the Handbook of Physical Fitness Activities Donald Casady has pointed out some of the variations in definitions given by physicians, physiologists, and physi- cal educators. He himself concludes that fitness is "the ability of the body to accommodate efficiently and ef- fectively a variety of vigorous physical tasks." But a physician and researcher has said that "phy- sical fitness implies that the body systems are capable of carrying on their activities satisfactorily." And anoth- er has defined physical fitness as "the ability for respi- ration and circulation to recover from a standard work load."

Another definition is that "the fit person is one who is free of limiting and debilitating ailments, who has the stamina and skill to do the day's work, and who has sufficient reserve of energy not only to meet emergen- cies but to provide zest for leisure time living." Recreational skills should be used to help attain physical fitness. Sorani points out that the common cry concerning physical activity is lack of time. "The diffi- culty of fitting regular periods of activity into an already overcrowded schedule must be recognized," he says. But, he adds, "the habit of adequate exercise is as im- portant to good health as one's sleep, one's work, and one's food." Sorani concludes: "If you are to be totally prepared for the tasks that lie ahead, to enjoy that quality of fit- ness that will allow you to live most effectively within your potentialities, the key lies in the nature of your daily living. There is no magical formula for fitness, no intensive six-week program guaranteed to last a life- time. Fitness is transitory; it must be worked for con- tinuously, and the only program of real value is a life- long one. If a total fitness is to come at all, it must be a product of total living and result from a clear under- standing of a broad concept of fitness and an acceptance of the idea that fitness is important."

". . . the college or university cannot ignore its obligations to provide for physical well- being as an important element of total fit- ness."

The fact that the course was intended to increasej strength and endurance, improve motor skills and health: practices is somehow overlooked—and often not accom-j plished.

I If this is true of Millsaps graduates, it's not because; Department Chairman James A. .Montgomery and his; staff haven't tried: Nobody spends longer hours on the THE MILLSAPS PROGRAM: Millsaps campus than Dr. Montgomery, and probably nobody gets to know the students as well. According to one expert, the physical education pro- gram should "provide each student with an opportunity: Somefhing to develop skill and understanding in a variety of sports; activities that will serve him throughout life. In a broad' view of education, physical education has unique oppor-j for Everybody tunities in developing desirable character and social! traits as well as defined responsibilities toward the phy- sical development of the individual." What this boils down to at Millsaps is a four-sided program: intercollegiate competition, physical educa-j

tion, recreational sports, and the intramural program, j Millsaps is a member of the National Collegiate Ath-j letic Association. Teams compete on an intercollegiate; A four-sided program' involves basis in football, basketball, baseball, tennis, track, golfj intercollegiate competition, and archery. physical education, recreational The intercollegiate football and baseball programs; are guided by Head Coach Harper Davis, with assistances sports, and an intramural program. in football from Assistant Coach Tommy Ranager.

To use a well-worn expressionj (how many ways can you say you expect to win?), th^ outlook is good. Dr. Montgomery adds the duties of head basketball coach to his many others. Here again losses have out- numbered wins in recent years. According to one local sports writer, the problem goes farther back than the; college level. "There just aren't many good basketball players in Mississippi," he says. And of course the oneS; there are are promptly snapped up by universities which: can afford more remunerative scholarship assistance. But, again, hopes are high in this game, too. For the; past few seasons the losses have been by remarkably: close scores. If the Majors can just manage to get on, the other side of the close score, things will look rosy.

unless he thinks he'll have an opportunity to display it or them—a fact which is true of any ability, whether it's acting or singing or writing or whatever. Can you imagine what would happen if all the ath- letes in this country suddenly went on strike? What would the millions of armchair sportsmen do? Wives would be harassed by husbands and sons on those Saturday and Sunday afternoons when they could ordinarily be depended upon to be glued to the television screen. Customers would suddenly find themselves faced with a surly salesman who hadn't been able to vent his emotions and tensions on the umpire during the week- end. Many whose only hours in the fresh air are gotten at sports events would never feel the sun. With all the spectators suddenly turned loose on the world, with noth- ing to occupy their time and attention, chaos would en- sue. So spectatoritis is not so bad as it's sometimes made out to be. Many college athletic directors would like for it to become more infectious and contagious, especially when they view the small crowds which turn out for some events and the sometimes apparently indifferent attitude of many of the college family. All this may seem somewhat paradoxical, to say that so many people are enthusiastic spectators and that yet crowds are often small. Perhaps, to be perfectly hon- est, what we should be saying is that Millsaps crowds are often small; we're sure that almost any small col- lege could say something of the same thing.

"has to be able to communicate his interest in his field, and in order to do this it would seem that he would need to have an interest in his students as individuals, as people, as fellow participants in the whole process of becoming fully human."

The Good Teacher:

"must certainly know his field, must be up to date in his field, but more than this he must be able to communicate his enthusiasm for the field as well as his concern for his students."

A Good Teacher: DR. ROBERT E. BERGMARK

The occupant of the J. Reese Lin Chair in Philo- sophy is a fine illustration of the type of teacher

Millsaps hopes to assure for the faculty with its academic chairs. His words on this and the next few pages give some idea of his philosophy of edca- tion. ii I c

"I feel that it's not so much tangible rewards which influence teachers as a climate within which free inquiry is made possible. The teacher needs to be able to feel that he will be sup- ported in the free search for truth. The level of morale in a student body, in a faculty, related to salary con- siderations, is also related to the feel- ing that the school is being well ad- ministered as an institution of higher learning, that the persons who are making the decisions are up to date on what's going on in the academic world and are bringing about im- provements Ln the structure of the educational institution.

"I guess I've adjusted myself to living with a good bit of chaos ....

Life is a constant battle against chaos, and nothing ever stays fixed. No class stays prepared for, you never get to the time when there isn't something else to do."

25 MEMORIAL GIFTS Persons who wish to memorialize or honor a loved one or friend may give through the Alumni Fund. Support of Christian higher education at Millsaps is a fitting tribute. Names of those in whose memory- gifts were received last year appear below:

E. L. Caldwell J. W. Lipscomb L. K. Carlton Mrs. J. B. Long Mr. and Mrs. Julien G. Carpenter Miss Susan Long Paul Chambers Rod Murray Percy Clifton Miss Ann Newell Countiss Family Memorial J. B.

DESIGNATED GIFTS FROM ALUMNI The concept of annual giving by alumni to the nation's colleges and universities is one of the corner- stones of support for higher education. It has been called the "bread and butter" money which keeps these institutions in business. At Millsaps, annual giving by alumni began in 1956 under the Alumni Fund program and has grown steadily since that time. Each year a number of non-alumni direct their gifts through the Alumni Fund. This giving takes many forms. Most contributions received are un- restricted in nature and can be used to meet the most pressing needs of the College. Many gifts credit- ed to the Alumni Fund are restricted in nature, however, and directed to a project in which the donor is particularly interested. Both kinds of gifts are needed and greatly appreciated.

Special projects which were aided through gifts credited to the 1966-67 Alumni Fund are listed below:

Daniel T. Anderson German Scholarship Wilma Susan Long Memorial Scholarship Fund Challenge Grant Campaign Millsaps Club of Mississippi Conference Ministerial Daniel Lobby Fund Scholarship Fund Diamond Anniversary Scholarship Fund Millsaps Scholarship Fund Hopkins Scholarship Fund Music Department Kimball Student Aid Fund Sigma Lambda Scholarship Fund Alvin Jon King Fund Wharton Scholarship Fund Library Book Fund

DESIGNATED GIFTS FROM FRIENDS AND ORGANIZATIONS Joining the alumni and the church in recognizing the superior contributions of Millsaps College to society by giving of their means to meet her serious and increasing needs is a growing number of friends, businesses, foundations, and other organizations. Their gifts were designated to the following areas of college operation and development:

Chair of Business Administration H. F. McCarty Scholarship Fund Kate B. Clark Scholarship Fund Millsaps Scholarship Fund Diamond Anniversary Scholarship Fund Mississippi Chi Omega Alumnae Scholarship Fund Ford Foundation Special Scholarship Harvey T.
