Thus lives the memory of Miss Louise Leonard, who gave as only the very finest have given. Un- selfishly and untiringly, with only the hope of aiding the wel- fare of our students and education in general, as her goal, Miss Leonard was always ready to take on any problem which might come to her attention. Her love for the students and her interest in their problems was so great, that her name is still on their lips. No student, even today, attends Fairmont State without hearing over and again of her work on this campus. No student misses hearing of the richness of her life, or of the kindness and sincerity of her deeds. Thus lives the memory of Miss Leonard, who gave as only the very finest have given. Eight Miss Louise Leonard Nine Ten The Faculty Eleven , ... ... -, , • „. - .. ■ «,, ..    ,, - Dr. George H. Hand This year, along with the graduating class, Dr. Hand looks back upon four active and pleasant years at Fairmont State. To him go the best wishes due any Senior . Twelve DEAN PENCE Known as the schools foremost faculty member Dean Pence re- spected for the use of his extensive knowledge for the betterment of the school, its administration, its students, and its friends. His efforts and achievements in the field of education have not been in vain, a fact that is made plain by the admiration that he receives in any group. He is not only honored by his fellow faculty members, but he is held in high esteem by the student body. MISS BAYLEY She can easily be classified among the old-timers on the hill, although she has only been here three years. Her assistance and advice in the reor- ganization of the Womens Pan-Hellenic placed her tops with the girls ' organizations on the hill. Her efforts in organizing the Freshman Counsellors won her a place in the hearts of still more of the students. By now, the mere mention of her name will bring statements reserved for those who are held in the highest respect by any student body. DEAN TURLEY Without the patient and steady efforts of Mr. Turley, the efficient operating standards of FSC would never have been maintained. Although the many small details such as veteran affairs handling, or assistance with the many problems which confront the students on the Hill never really make headlines , they are important to the welfare of the college. When small but important problems must be dealt with, Mr. Turley can be depended upon to carry them out with a precision and definiteness that is his nature. The Deans John W. Pence, Dean of the College Eleanor R. Bayley, Dean of Women George H. Turley. Dean of Men Thirteen No school, no graduating class, no student body is ever any better than its faculty. When proud parents see their offsprings as grown men and women receive a diploma, when a young man or woman takes his or her first step towards a successful career, then they should stop and think of, and give thanks to, the members of the faculty who assure such successes.

From some- where they had picked up an air of confidence, sometimes tritely called the American spirit. Somehow that doesn ' t quite fit. It ' s simply the fact that they know what they want, they know that they will have to work hard to get it, and all they ask is an even crack at the world. If the rest of the world can turn out citizens such as those who wore the Mortar boards this year, the coming generation can easily outshine their predecessors. Dot McCord, President Henrietta Owens. Secretary Twenty-two The Graduating Class on their way to their degree: the climax of four years of hard work. A normal scene of the traffic between the Ad. Building and the Science Hall.

RALPH INGRAM Sgt.-at-Arms With three-fourth ' s of the battle won, most of the class of ' 50 is in its glory. As one ex-Junior was heard to say, Look Ma, only one more year to go . And they have good reason for their exuberence. They have a good year behind them, and a good one to look forward to. To them will fall the duty of holding up traditions of FSC. It ' s up to them to break in the new Freshmen. It ' s their job to see that Fairmont State continues to turn out men and women of the truly fine Fairmont State caliber. A quick glance around shows no one who is worried about how things are going to be handled next year. They ' re not only following in the Seniors ' footsteps, they may be just a few strides ahead of them. Thirty-four Class of 1950 Marguerite Louise Andrick Shinnston JOHN C.

Ask those who saw it from the inside, and you ' ll hear them all agree that it was an honest to goodness bang-up affair. To those who were in on the thing, step up and take the credit that is yours.

Is it even necessary to state that her name is Betty Cole? We think this picture speaks for itself. Forty-ei°ht Freshman Class Freshman Officers They were a good group, last year ' s Freshmen. They did their duties as they were presented. The proper number of bird cages were worn in the proper manner. The brass rail in the auditorium was kept well shined. The victory bell was polished, and the sandwich signs were worn correctly. They even carried out the punishments given to them by the Freshman Court. And now that ' s all over. The students of the old Freshman Class are now full-fledged members of the student body, with all rights and privileges thereof. They can sit back and tell the tail stories that are always told of what a horrible thing it is to be a freshman. Now that they have proved their worth, they can turn their efforts to making their mark as an upper-classman, and take a more active part in the events that make Fairmont State College a school that has a right to be proud.

The Student Council has worked diligently this year to attain their goal; that is to make Fairmont State a better place to re- ceive an education. In addition to carrying out their regular duties of assuring cooperation between administration and the student body, the student council has brought to Fairmont State a number of important events. Among these was the student mix, held early in the school year to help the incoming students to know our school. On December 13th they sponsored the Santa Claus Shuffle in Colebank gym. It was with the coopera- tion of the student council that Mr. William L. Shirer, well- known speaker, was brought to Fairmont. In May they topped the social season by bringing to this campus Hal Mclntyre and his orchestra, one of the most popular orchestras in the country. It goes without saying that the student body sincerely appreciates the efforts of this hard working group. Leading the Council in their work were Jack Haugh, Presi- dent: Yvonne Richards, Vice-President: Dot Horton, Secretary; Hilda Roberty, Treasurer; and Flint Ballouz, Sergeant-at-arms.

One Hundred Athletics One Hundred One JASPER COLEBANK Director of Athletics The unexcelled conduct of good sportsmanship has been a dominate feature of the athletic code on the Fairmont sports scene for many years. This has come about largely through the tirelss efforts of Mr. Colebank who has guided the destiny of Falcon athletic teams since 1924. His name has become a by-word throughout the state for his varied accom- plishments and capable leadership. One Hundred Two WILFORD Squib WILSON Head Coach of Football, Basketball, and Baseball Succeeding Mr. Colebank as head coach of the three major sports in 1 940, Coach Wilson has continued the process of turning out power- ful athletic teams. This season, one of the most successful in the history of the college, was climaxed when Squib directed his basketball charges to an impressive victory in the West Virginia Intercollegiate Conference tournament. This was the first time that Fairmont had ever captured the tourney, and it reflected the ability and increased the prestige of its deserving coach.

One Hundred Five One Hundred Six As It Happened The opening of the ' 48 football season came off in brilliant fashion as the Wilson coached machine capitalized on the first play from scrimmage for a touchdown and went on to down the Pioneers of Glenville, 19-7. The West Virginia Techmen came to town the next week and a terrific defensive battle ensued throughout the entire game. Late in the final stanza, with State leading, 3-0, Tech climaxed an 80-yard drive to down the fighting Falcons, 6-3. Local fans witnessed football at its spectacular best when the Maroon and White tangled with the West Virginia Freshmen at East-West stadium. Featuring sixty minutes of intensified play, the Frosh finally put the game on ice in the fourth quarter to capture the verdict, 12-7. The next game brought Bethany to town and the Falcons displayed a sterling offensive and defen- sive performance to brand the northern panhandle Bisons, a 27-7 defeat. On the road for their next encounter, the Fair- monters suffered a heartbreaker to the Wesleyan Wild- cats, 20-14. Playing in a continuous downpour of rain, both teams were amazingly effective with their scoring thrusts, and the outcome of the game was mere speculation up to the closing moments. Unleashing a powerful ground attack, the F.S.C footballers regained the victory road by trimming the Concord Mountain Lions 18-13. Entering the enemies lair as the underdog, the local combine dis- regarded press notices and quickly tallied a field goal, two T.D.s., and racked up a safety in the second half for good measure. The Falcons bucked the Shepherd Rams all over their own pasture but fell victim to penalties which nullified several scoring opportunities. Though the Wilson men led the statisticians column by a lopsided margin, the best they could garner on the scoreboard was a 7-7 tie. Facing the Salem Tisers in the years final, a hard charging Falcon aggregation treated a Dad ' s Day fol- lowing to a raging duel that swept up and down the gridiron for four quarters. With crazed fans stand- ing on their seats, and only seconds left to play, the Falcons clawed to within striking distance and took to the air, but the whistle sounded giving Salem a one point verdict, 7-6. One Hundred Sex en R A S K E T B A L L Dressed in Tommies and PJ ' s , the Morrow Hall girls rushed from the dorm and rang the Victory Bell seventy-six times. Once for each point the Falcons scored in defeating West Virginia Tech to gain the West Virginia Intercollegiate Conference champi- onship. Registering first round and semi-final wins over West Virginia Wesleyan and Alderson Broaddus, the Falcons took on the Techmen with the precision that only comes from twenty-six previous games of coordinative effort and decided the issue, 71-62. The splendid cooperation and ability of the players and the coach were obvious and extremely impressive during the tourney play. 1st Row: Ike Owens, Bill Blosser.
