Spring Semester Finds Mitchell
Assuming New Assignment Here
Dr. C. O. Mitchell chairman of
the Division of Business has hcen
unpointed to the additional posi-
tion of director of graduate stud-
k's announced Dr. Guy D. New-
man IIPC president.
In assuming his new assignment
with the opening of the spring
semester at the college Dr. Mitch-
ell succeeds Dr. Joe D. Hushing
who has headed the UPC Graduate
Division since he joined the col-
lege staff in 1051.
"Dr. Hushing has heon relieved
of the responsibility of the Gradu-
ate Division to leave his time free
for his important administrative
duties at Howard Payne" Dr.
Newman explained. Dr. Hushing is
the college's- administrative vice
president. Ho also teaches in the
Division of Education and will
have two classes this spring.
Dr. Mitchell's two assignments
mean that he will head two of the
college's important academic di-
visions. The Division of Business
is one of the largest in the school
and the Graduate Division estab-
lished in 1952 to offer the Master
of Education Degree is one of the
fastest growing. Current records
show that more students are start-
ing graduate programs at Howard
Payne this semester than in
several years. The Graduate Di-
vision also is expanding its pro-
gram to offer night classes on
three days' Monday Tuesday and
Thursday this spring instead of
twice weekly as formerly sched-
uled. The night classes for gradu-
ate students arc In addition to
classes neheduied during the reg-
ular daytime hours.
Dr. Mitchell joined the Howard
Payne faculty in Soptember 1957.
Ho previously taught at North
Texas State College and East
Texas State College. He holds the
Bachelor of Science Degree from
North Texas the Master of Edu-
cation from the University of Tex-
as and the Doctor of Education
from the University of Houston
and lias done additional work at
New York University.
Dr. Hushing holds the Bachelor
of Arts from Howard Payne the
Master of Arts from East Texas
and the Ph.D from the University
of Texas. Ho has taught in Mt.
Pleasant and Lovelland High
Schools served as principal of
Hodges Oak Park School in Rang-
er served as a teaching fellow at
tlie University of Texas and was
director of adult education at
Wharton County Junior College
before coming to Howard Payne.
"If a majority of the people of
our generation hear the gospel
message It will be only by means
of the twin miracles of radio and
television."
A startling statement but one
believed wholeheartedly by Dr.
Paul Morris Stevens of Fort
Worth director of Southern Bap-
tists' Radio and Television Com-
mission. Dr. Stevens will lead In the
preaching services of HPC's all-
college revival February 2-6. There
will be two services each day in
Mims Auditorium. The morning
services will begin at 9:30 a.m.
and the evening services will be
gin at 7:30 p.m. Dr. Stevens will
be assisted by a Howard Payne
senior student Dickie Denson
who has been appointed general
chairman for the revival.
For five and a half years Dr.
Stevens a native of Mississippi
has headed the commission. Lo-
cated in Fort Worth on a busy
main artery opening doors to the
West the commission Is also de
voted to opening doors the heart-
doors of men around the world to
the good news of Christ. Says Dr
Stevens "The aim of this com
mission is the same as that of
every denominational organization
and activity to preach redemp-
tion and peace through our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ."
The commission is unique among
Southern Baptist Convention agen
cies. It holds on to two great
industries with one hand and a
great denomination with the other
trying to link the two with mutual
benefit for both.
After one false start in which
two 15-minute semi-animated films
were produced for use on tele-
vision Stevens' great idea for tho
use of television came.
His idea was simply to produce
contemporary dramas of life di-
rectly from the parables used by
Jesus Himself in the New Testa-
ment to illustrate life's principles.
Paul Stevens came to head
Southern Baptists' ministry of
radio and television with little
background or experlenco in
either of these two fields but ho
has learned fast. Tho profession-
als in Hollywood and New York
with whom he has become an In
timate acquaintance and a respect
ed colleague say sincerely that
'he's a natural for this kind of
work."
He looks upon this task in
which lie is so ably and busily
engaged as a "divine opportunity."
He has said this many times in
many ways until you know that
behind every move he makes for
the commission there is a purpose.
Also included in the revival
week's activities at Howard Payne
will be the "Buzz Sessions" per-
iods of questions and answers in
tho auditorium following tho
evening services on Tuesday
Wednesday and Thursday; "Coke
Time" a discussion time from 3
p.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday after-
noon in tho Small Dining Room
and a reception Monday night
following the evening service in
Hodge Hall formal parlor honor-
ing Dr. Stevens.
The public is invited to attend
the revival services.
