Greater Council
Al Holcomb Describes Necessity
Of Teamwork At First Meeting
"Just as any athletic group, you
must work together as a team,"
emphasized Al Holcomb, San An-
tonio senior, as he gave the open-
ing address of the first Greater
Council meeting of the Baptist
Student Union last Monday.
George Mosier, campus BSU
president, presided at the meeting
which approximately 80 students
attended.
Under the direction of the Exe-
cutive Council members, the sep-
arate Greater Council committees
met to plan future BSU activities.
The remainder of the meeting
was confined to a strict time sched-
ule by the ringing of a "cowbell"
wielded by Mosier. During this
time several Executive Council
members reported future plans.
The BSU Convention is slated
for October 14-16 in Waco, Texas.
A goal of one hundred HPC stu-
dents attending the convention has
been set, according to Glenda Yan-
dell, promotions chairman. "It's
only 132 miles to one of the great-
est experiences of a lifteime," stat-
ed Mosier.
Noonday Chairman, Paul Pod-
roza, reported that "last year
Noonday averaged about twelve.
This year we've been averaging
around seventy." Noonday meets in
the Fleming Building every Monday
through Friday at 1 p.m.
The Greater Council meets the
last Monday of each month at 6
p.m. in the Fleming Building. Exe-
cutive Council members meet every
Monday at 6 p.m.
Harvest King, Queen To Be Nominated
Nominations for Harvest King
and Queen will be made in chapel
Friday, October 7, said Jan Daen-
hert, election chairman.
Nominees must be of junior or
senior standing and each should be
a true representative of Howard
Payne school spirit. Names of the
top three boys and the top three
girls nominated will be posted
around the campus.
The Harvest King and Queen will
be elected from these six people
in chapel October 14.
They will be crowned at the
Harvest Festival at 7:30 p.m. Oc-
tober 21, which is also Freshman
Dress Up Day.
Last year's Harvest King and
Queen were Beth Jones and David
Gilger.
Senate Members Unanimously Favor
Regulations For Definite Patterns
Freshmen candidates for class offices attending the Tuesday
evening session of Student Senate were attentive spectators in the
gallery as the legislators approved a set of regulations governing
freshmen initiation activities.
Two of the freshmen women there were pointed out as examples
as to how beanies are not to be worn.
Senator Jan Daenhert questioned the use of "etc" in a couple of
the rules.
"We left it that way on purpose," stated Traditions Chairman
John Gill. He further explained that he felt confident that upperclass-
men had enough taste and judgement to leave the "etc." unlisted.
"Just as sure as we tried to list everything, we'd leave something
out," he said. """"
Daenhert later questioned Gill about statement No. 2—the squar-
ed beanies-and asked, "Does this apply to the girls?"
"This was specifically designed for the girls," answered Gill. He
said that most of the freshmen women were wearing the beanies far
back on the head and few beanies-much less names-could be seen
from the front.
Listening Party
Is Scheduled
A "listening" party is schedul-
ed for students remaining1 on
canipns this weekend during the
HPC-A&I game, according to
Miss Martha St. Clair, director
of student activities.
Students are to gather in the
college cafeteria at 7:45 p.m.
Saturday to listen to the game
broadcast over KlfPC. Fresh-
men yell leaders will he on hand
to add to the spirit of the oc-
casion.

down and don't go hog-wild."
The Friday evening meal is
designated for such activities for
out-of-town games while the Satur-
day evening meal is specified for
home games.
Treasurer Ric Condra reported
that material explaining in greater
detail the actual functioning pur-
poses of the Student Banking Pro-
gram is to be sent each club presi-
dent, in anticipation of more cam-
pus-wide participation.
Senate Sponsor Francis Miller,
dean of students, explained that
the Student Association is opera-
ting under an appropriation of 25
cents per student per semester

FRESHMEN RULES
Many adjectives could aptly de-
scribe the word "Spirit," but this
penetrating word enhances more
than just common words.
Spirit is truly exemplified in the
treasured motto, "For Howard
Payne, My All." When you, as a
student, think of Howard Payne
from a point of giving your all,
you think of enthusiastic loyalty
beyond any shadow of a doubt.
Spirit on the campus is a heart-felt
loyalty, expressed verbally and
held in high esteem.
Dr. Logan Wilson, president of
the University of Texas, once said1,
"Bricks and mortar are not un-
important, but any worthy uni-
verse is above all else a place of
the mind and the spirit."
Freshmen, our school spirit de-
pends on you. Are you doing your
part?
