OLIVIER JOSEPH PICCIONE FENNER WADE SMITH WEBB SMITH EDWARD STAGG HENRY STUBBS MILDRED TATE RUTH TILLY GEORGE YOUNG One Hundred Ninety-lwo 1938 VARSITY FOOTBALL ROBERT L. BROWNE Athletic Director Under his guidance and leadership, athletics have thrived at Southwestern for the past 14 years. Yearly S. L. I. athletics have grown and gained national recognition — football, basketball, boxing and track have been put on a basis tantamount to that of any college of similar enroll- ment in the country. This year. Athletic Director Browne has arranged a strenuous 1 1 game football schedule with the leading teams of Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana. Southwestern has growing desires and ath- letics under Director Browne will lead the way into a bril- liant future. JOHN CAIN Football Coach This past gridiron season marked the first year for Coach John Hurry Cain as head football mentor at Southwestern. Before coming to our college, he gained national recognition as an All-American back with Ala- bama. However, those days are gone — Southwestern is looking forward, and it feels that Cain will repeat his past performances only this time from the coaching bench. His initial season, was a marked success. His own version of the old Rockne system proved effective and with returning stars and additional new- comers, S. L. 1. expects him to mold an eleven of champion- ship calibre this fall. GEORGE MITCHELL Line Coach Aiding and serving as assistant gridiron prof to Coach Cain is a former L. S. U. star lineman — George Gee Mitchell. As the first assistant, Mitchell is an in- valuable asset to the S. L. I. football edition. He knows the game — and can transmit his grid knowledge to the ath- letes. Besides his gridiron ef- forts. Coach Mitchell tutored the undefeated boxing team of Southwestern. Browne Cain Mitchell One Hundred Ninety-four This year has seen the be- ginning of a new era for Southwestern, and the band has had a large hand in it. It is by far the best band to ever represent this College, and much credit is due to Colonel Baranco and the band members who have worked so faithfully through- out the year. The band took several trips this year and were highly complimented v henever they appeared. It is hoped that a larger number of trips will be planned for the coming year, as the band will be much larger and bet- ter than ever before. The excellent college spirit shown at all athletic events throughout the year can largely be attributed to the band, whose tireless efforts made the going look brighter at dark moments, and who always were ready to cheer the boys on to victory. For the first time in the history of Southwestern the band mem- bers have received some compensation for the work done. They were exempted from the payment of their athletic fee. Next year it is hoped that a number of Scholarships will be avail- able for band members, or those whose musical ability will warrant one. COLONEL E. BARANCO Director DONALD BARANCO Assistant Director ERNEST McMillan President FRED MIMS SMITH Vice-President PHILLIP SAAL Secretary MISSES MARCELLE AND MARGARET FRANKLIN Drum Majors COLLEGE BAND One Hundred Ninety-five 1938 VARSITY HENRY WILLIAMS Tubby is his nickname and in football he was like a tub of dynamite plunging around. He came to us from the town of Homer, Louisiana. In the beginning of the season he held down the tackle position for the Bulldogs but when in- juries forced Weber from the lineup, Tubby, because of his all-around adaptability, was shifted to the pivot position which he held admirably and ably for the rest of the season. A senior in school, S. L. 1. will be hard-pressed to find a man successfully to fill the positions he has successively held for three years. RALPH WEBER Cowboy Weber, a Texas Bulldog bailing from Hou- ston, whose services to the S. L. I. team have been in- valuable, has ended his grid- iron career at S. L. 1. with an unequalled record. Until in- juries kept him from the game, Weber held down the center pivot position of the team with a skill that made him one of the best pivots the school has ever had. WILLIAM GARTH Billy, from the hills of Mis- sissippi, has been a shining example of what a real foot- ball player should be. His years of service for the team are over; but he has been a field general of the highest type — one of the finest football players of the last season. Williams Weber Garth One Hundred Ninety-six J. Y. DUNCAN For four years J. Y. has been an outstanding athlete on the campus. In track, bas- ketball and football he has shone brightly as an example of a real sportsman. He comes from Alexandria where, in high school days, he handled the terminal post. At S. L. I. he again held down the same important position and has succeeded wonder- fully in this position. He is leaving S. L. I. but he will be remembered long for his sportsmanship and play. GLYNN ABEL Glynn has been one of the most promising backs S. L. I. has had in many a year. His ability as a ball carrier was clearly shown in the many thrilling plays he has execut- ed during the past season ' s games. Glynn was the S. L. I. football thriller, and many people sat and waited pa- tiently until that boy Abel would cut loose with another of those long thrilling runs for which he is famous. With one more year left to play, Glynn promises to be the most out- standing back for next sea- son ' s activities. Duncan Gunter Abel SAM GUNTER Another one of Alabama ' s football sons. Sam is one of the most outstanding triple- threats Southwestern has seen in years. He punts, he passes, he makes end runs. Sam is capable, and proved it many, many times during the games of the last sca3on. FOOTBALL One Hundred Ninety-seven 1938 VARSITY KNOX VINCENT LITTLE Knox comes from Russel- ville, Alabama. He is one of the largest men on the team. His name will go down in Southwestern ' s football his- tory as the most outstanding tackle. With two more years to play Knox shows indica- tions of turning into one of the most spectacular players around these parts. JAMES SANFORD An Alabama giant, run- ning loose on S. L. I. ' s football field might be a good way to picture the power and zip of Sanford ' s performances against the team ' s opponents. Sanford is from Reform, Ala- bama, and has been a bril- liant player on S. L. I. ' s foot- ball squad. He has been in the midst of it all and has out- played all of those who lined up against him the past sea- son. A senior in college — a paver of the road for South- western ' s victories — he will be deeply missed and needed on the field of battle for S. L. I. ' s football fans. ROBERT DeROUEN Last football season saw with opening eyes the flashy ball carrying of this able lad who came to us from New Iberia. With just the right amount of zip and dash mixed with a lot of twist and turn, he exhibited a rare com- bination of what has made him such a valuable player to the S. L. I. team. Filling the shoes of this broken-field- runner will be a hard task for the team of next year. Long will Bobby be remembered as one of the flashiest runners that ever hit the Southwestern campus. Little Sanford DeRouen One Hundred Ninety-eight VERNE WHITE Although not the biggest fellow on the team, Verne was the type of player who could be relied upon to do what was needed during the game. With every ounce of 157 pounds, he crashed through the lines and smoth- ered opponents. With every faculty available he spotted the forward passes of other teams and smothered them before they were completed. He will be badly missed by the team. BARNEY FOREMAN Barney has been one of the stalwart linemen of the Bull- dog team for the past season. Next year, football fans will witness his aggressiveness and determination and ac- claim him as the most suc- cessful and versatile lineman of the Bulldog team. White Rodgers Foreman JOE RODGERS Joe hails from Phenix City, Alabama. He is only a soph- omore, but with two more years left to play, he will surely be a star for the future teams of S. L. I. Already he has demonstrated his ability by his ball-carrying and from all indications it is evident that he will be one of our reg- ular starters next season. FOOTBALL One Hundred Ninety-nine 1938 VARSITY THOMAS RUPERT GAGNET Rupert resides in the town of Plaquemine, Louisiana. A sophomore, playing his first year of varsity competition, Rupert held down the end po- sition like a veteran. With two more years left to play, he will turn into one of the greatest terminals of South- western. JOE HERPIN Last year Joe was referred to as the large, dark man of the S. L. I. football squad. His 220 pounds have smashed into many a rival with terrific force. The Jinx followed him around this year and it was with regret that fans found Joe, unfortu- nately, out of the lineup in some games because of in- juries sustained. A senior, he will be hard to replace in the S. L. I. lineup. JAMES VICTOR RUSSELL Pelahatchie is another of those Mississippi folk who migrated to S. L. I. A junior, Russell has shown valiant aggressiveness and alert- ness, qualities needed by linemen on college football teams. With one more season left to play for the Red and White he ' ll be there fighting with the same old spirit that he has always shown in the past. We are predicting a big season for him next year. Two Hundred OTIS COLEMAN HURST VERNON FRANCIS BELL Hurst hails Iroin Jonesboro, Louisiana. A giant of a man, and very powerful, Hurst should prove in his next two years of football, to be one of the very best linemen to don the red and white. Dixie, as his comrades call him, comes from Pine- ville, Louisiana. In his first year in football Dixie received a serious shoulder injury which kept him from compe- tition that season. Last season he turned out to be a promis- ing prospect for the next year ' s team and in all prob- ability will be holding down the terminal post. Bourgeois Bell ASHTON BOURGEOIS Ashton comes from Plaque- mine, and his sure-footedness and side-stepping ability have made him an outstand- ing player on the Bulldog squad for this past season. With one more season left to play, it is very evident that Bourgeois will be one of our leading ball carriers of the next year. Two Hundred One FOOTBALL 1938 VARSITY WILLIAM FRANCIS STEVENSON Bill calls Bastrop, Louisiana, his home. His start of football, his first varsity year, turned out to be very successful. With two more years ahead he will probably be one of the linemen who will be hard to keep off the starting eleven. ALLEN DOUGLAS TILLMAN Tillman, from Rayville, Louisiana, a tall, rangy man, played good, hard, clean football at a tackle berth. Tilly, at the first of the sea- son, found going hard; but before mid-season he had shoved himself up to a regu- lar position. This is his soph- omore year and there is little doubt that Tillman will be a bright spot on our coming eleven. WILBUR CAMP Wilbur, a sophomore, comes from Haynesville, Louisiana. Playing his first year of var- sity football at a guard posi- tion, he proved to be an outstanding prospect for the future teams of Southwestern. Stevenson Tillman Camp Two Hundred Two FREDERICK DICKEY Dickey has a proniising fu- ture ahead for college foot- ball; but unfortunately before the season had barely got underway he was obliged to leave school. HILERY DOLLAHITE Texas is the home state of Hilery. As a sophomore he showed his ability to handle the guard position of the team. He is adept and skillful in his maneuvering, and next year ' s team should see much of his services. Dickey Ducharme Dollahiie SIDNEY LOUIS DUCHARME Sid lives in Opelousas, Louisiana. A sophomore, Sid handled the tackle post of the Bulldogs ' forward wall. With two more years left to play, we are confident Ducharme will give valuable service to the team. FOOTBALL Two Hundred Three 1938 VARSITY BAXTER SUMMERS A native of Brookhaven, Mississippi, Baxter has been one of the shock troops of the S. L. I. backfield. Being a halfback of abihty and skill, he will be a man valuable to the squad next year. WILSON MONTGOMERY DAN DAVIDSON TEXADA Nigger Montgomery, as he is called by his friends, has a flash of color about his ball carrying. As a halfback on the team he did very fine playing. Next year ' s team will certainly see Wilson as one of its outstanding players. A shifty ball-carrier from Alexandria, Louisiana. A star of that school, he is an ex- ample of fast, shifty, dodging ball-carrier. Small in size and weight he has had to rely on speed and agility to carry him through or around. And he has used his abilities to his advantage in every game this year. A junior this sea- son, with one more year left to play, his stars point to a very successful climax to his football career next year. Summers Montgomery Two Hundred Four WAYNE THEO WELCH Wayne hails from Crow- ley, the Rice City. He is a sophomore who handled the quard position on the squad, and one who saw quite a bit of action in last year ' s games. With two more years left to play, Wayne has a bright fu- ture ahead for Southwestern football. JAMES WESLEY MINNER Another of those Texas ball players from Port Arthur! Minner held down the end post of the forward wall. When injuries inflicted heavy to ll on the team, Minner came to the rescue and played his best brand of ball. With two more years left to play, Minner should be one of the regular eleven for the squad. Welch Catalina Minner PETE CATALINA A sophomore from Port Ar- thur, Texas. Pete was held out all season, but was faith- ful in reporting to the reserves each day. Because of vacan- cies left by graduation, this up-and-coming Port Arthur player should see much ac- tion on next year ' s aggrega- tion.

More than thirty-five men rolled into Lafayette on this date, and every one of them was ready to go. Most of them had worked all summer and were in fairly good shape. The Southwestern Bulldogs opened the 1937 season with a defeat at the hands of Mississippi College, and it appeared then that the Rockne System introduced by our new mentor. Coach Hurry Cain, would not aid the S. L. I. gridsters. But when Stephen F. Austin fell before the charging line and speed- ing backs of the Bulldogs, friends and fans saw the improvement and knew that we were headed for a successful season. It was, for we played over .500 percent football, better than any time in the near past. The 1937 season cannot be called anything but a success, because the team was a great improvement over the 1936 team, and every man was backed by his own fighting spirit and a determination to win. Two Hundred Six Scores Southwestern Freshmen 0 Southwestern Freshmen 6 Southwestern Freshmen 0 Southwestern Freshmen 12 Loyola Freshmen 12 Louisiana Normal Freshmen 0 Louisiana Tech Freshmen 0 Lamar 18 FRESHMAN FOOTBALL 9 Under the direction of Coach Clifford Johnson, our first year men played some of the stronger aggregations of Louisiana, and proved to friends and fans that they have great possibilities. On October 16, they met the strong Loyola Freshmen and were subdued only after a hard fight. It must be mentioned, how- ever, that this game was played shortly after their organization as a team. From then on, they went undefeated until the last game of the season, which was played against Lamar, the strong Junior College from Beaumont, Texas. When this year ' s competition ended, there could easily be seen among these candidates potential stars in men like Bass, Hollister, Houser, Patin, Didier, Woods, Dunphy and Davies. Two Hundred Seven COACH J. C. REINHARDT In Coach Reinhardt, South- western has a tutor who is thoroughly versed in every technicality and angle of the basketball game. Dutch is a well known figure in the S. I. A. A. cage circuit, being responsible for the introduction of the mid-western style of at- tack, characterized by an in- tricate style of set plays. Next year ' s prospects are indicative of the best quintet ever to rep- resent S. L. I. on the rectangu- lar court and a championship contender is expected. DIAMOND SHINE YOUNG For his aggressive- ness and never- say - die spirit Shine proved himself an ideal Captain. Playing in every minute of every game except a few in the Tech game goes to show the ability and en- durance he possesses. Diamond played his high school basketball with Sugartown, Louisi- ana. With two years experience. Diamond should be one of the leading figures next year on the hardwoods of S. L. I. AUBREY BACON Bacon proved to be one of the valuable for- wards on the Bulldog quintet. His speed and accuracy at hitting the basket enabled him to be of great assistance on the Bulldog offense. This year he totalled 122 points in twenty games. He bucketed 56 from the court and 10 via the charity toss route. Ba- con has one year left on the S. L. I. squad and should prove to be one of the main cogs in next year ' s cage club. OTIS HURST Otis, playing his first year for the Southwest- ern cagers, proved to be the most consistent and to have the best eye for the basket. This sopho- more from Jonesboro played in eighteen games; and when the individual scoring was totalled Hurst was found to have scored 161 points for the season, leading all members of the team in this spe- cialty. Otis plays a rugged but smart game, taking advantage of every opportunity, but never giving an inch. Two Hundred Eight LEIGH STEWART Leigh, a Lafayette boy, played a forward position on this year ' s var- sity. In the first part of the season he played the pivot position on the team but when Hurst rounded into shape, Leigh Stewart Stewart wos used as a forward and in that position he proved to be a star. His height and ruggedness was a great aid to the squad in rolling up points via the tap-in route. Leigh will be back with us again next year, and his services as a forward will surely aid our team in conquering op- ponents. Blanchard Sanders BLANCHARD SANDERS Pete was a teammate of Knight- en ' s at Harris High School. Blanch- ard finished the season with a total of 84 points to rank third in individual scoring. Sanders proved to be a bright spot at the forward position by his aggressiveness and deception. His playing in the Loyola game here will be hard to forget, for he scored 16 points from angles while speeding down the court. Pete is a sopho- more and has two more years to serve on the basket ball team of Southwestern. ANDRUS MARTINEZ Andrus is a junior from Carencro, Louisiana. He is widely known for his guarding ability and clean sports- manship. Martinez is of the type that never says an unnecessary word, but lets his action on the courts count all. Being the most agile and speedy of any player, along with exceptional ability to recover the ball off the back- stop, kept him in the thick of the fight throughout the season. His greatest play — a center shot in the last ten seconds of play in the Hattiesburg Teachers game, which gave victory to our team — is hard to forget. When basketball season closes, he steps on the track, where he is even greater in performance. Two Hundred Nine JAMES BERGEAUX Jimmy began his basketball career while attending Elton High School. t3 i 1 1 James Bergeaux Because ot the lack ot experience, Bergeaux was slow to get a start, but within a short while his presence was felt on the hardwoods of S. L. 1. Jim plays the pivot position and seems to do better when the going gets rough. As each game was played he improved and his experience in the past season ' s games will help him a great deal this coming season. ERNEST McMillan Ernest is another Lafayette boy on the squad and an All-District guard during his high school days. Mac is a. fellow who performs his tasks McMillan with the greatest precaution and de- liberation — never letting an opponent get the jump on him in any way. He did not break into the line-up until about mid-season; but when he did, he was found to be hard to replace because of his determination to win and the ability to fulfill this desire. HERBERT SHIRLEY Herbert, a junior in college, is from DeRidder. Shirley has, at many times, shown flashes of greatness, but due to injuries he was unable to see much service. He has one more year, and if the injury jinx doesn ' t Herbert Shirley follow him, he should be hard to stop in the coming season. Two Hundred Ten GAY KNIGHTEN Gay hails from Harris High School, Route 2, Minden, Louisiana, where in 1934 he led that small school to State Championship, and was awarded a center position on the All-State five. In his easy-going way, he has a knack to pile up points via the offen- sive tactic of his famous hook shot. From all indications of his first year of varsity competition, he is going to be a hard one to keep off the 1938-39 Bulldog aggregation. Besides his fine basketball. Gay is an outstanding student leader on the campus. JAMES TROUTMAN A star of the Roanoke High School, Troutman played his first year of varsity competition this year and has shown flashes of being one of the James Troutman best basket shooters on the team. He is known for his ability to take the bumps and keep going and seems to do his best when the going is tough. From all indications, James should be in there scrapping for a first string berth on the next year ' s Southwestern basketball team. WILLIE REEVES Willie measures only five feet six inches but makes up for the lack of height by being aggressive and speedy. A keen eye for the basket and excellent ball handling made him valuable to the squad in many ways. If he were a bit taller and had more ruggedness he would probably have been a regular. Reeves has one more year of varsity competition and from his past performances he should see much service. Two Hundred Eleven VARSITY BASKETBALL Because of the presence of only two experienced men, Leigh Stewart and Diamond Young, Coach Reinhardt ' s hopes were dim at the opening of the 1937-38 season; but before long, under the guidance of their coach and the response of the candidates, the dark and gloomy clouds faded away. In games won and lost the season closed with a .500 percent average; but this does not reveal the true facts, for close scores and hairline finishes lost them more than one game. Our team never once failed to fight it out to the finish and give the oppon- ents a hundred percent of what they had. Losing to teams as Tulane and L. S. U. by five and eight poi nts respectively goes to show they fought gallantly against great odds. In the last game of the season they perhaps showed their true worth, defeating Delta Teachers from Mississippi, a team that went to the quarter-finals of the National Intercollegiate Tournament. A fact that gives a coach satisfaction was experienced by Coach Rein- hardt this year when he looks at his entire squad and knows that every man will be back the coming year. Added to these will be Carl Hurst and Dempsey Young from the Freshman Team, who, together, led their team to an undefeated season. December 2. December 6. December 10. December 18. January 4.

Two Hundred Twelve WALTER BERNIE DAVIES Overshadowing the achievements of the great Red Brown, leg- endary Bulldog heavy- weight, the big lad by the name of Bernie Davies proved to be the biggest success and the biggest attraction of S. L. l. ' s crack boxing club. Weighing approximate- ly 210 pounds, Bernie used his great physical strength in combination with superb skill to blast all but two of his oppon- ents. A majority of his seven victories were via the technical kayo route. One of his losses was to a finalist in the 1938 National Golden Gloves championship. BILL BASS Bill was nicknamed Baby Face by North Louisiana sports writers, not because he was a weakling, but rather for the fact that his inno- cent looking face was only a sham. He pos- sessed a T. N. T. punch in either glove and won several fights via the Towel - throw- ing route. Bass was one of the stalwarts of the 1938 fistic outfit. THURMAN PARDUE Flying the S. L. I. ban- ner for the first time. Freshman Pardue proved to be a sensa- tion in the tiny weight division. When not serving as an under- study to Captain Carlo Listi in the lightweight section, Pardue dished out his kayo punches in the 126-pound class. GEORGE GEE MITCHELL Coach This year marked the second in Coach George Mitchell ' s ca- reer as head boxing tutor at Southwestern. Without a doubt the splendid record made by the Bulldog pugilists may largely be attributed to the excellent coaching of Gee Mitchell. Out of a card of ten matches, the Bulldogs were undefeated, capturing eight and drawing two. Victo- ries were registered doubly over Tech, Northeast Center and Centenary. One team vic- tory was gained over Millsaps and a forfeit match was won from Ole Miss. Deadlocks were fought with the strong Loyola University Wolves of New Orleans. Two Hundred Thirteen CAPTAIN CARLO LISTI Into the annals of S. L. I. box- ing history goes the name of Carlo Listi — former S. A. A. U. lightweight champion. His col- legiate record reads: Twenty- eight victories, four draws and a sole loss. Possessing a duck- ing, weaving and bobbing style of pugilism, the Invin- cible Listi gained many vic- tories as well as much praise from all his opponents. Listi leaves S. L. I. boxing circles but his great record will re- main with the Bulldogs. C. C. MATT A long and husky Bulldog scrapper is C. C. Matt. Without a doubt, he is the squad ' s best jabber and skill fighter. Matt alternated in the 155 and 165-pound di- visions and saw much service in the past sea- son. He stood out as a sure winner every time he stepped into the square ring. WILSON LANDRY Adding prestige to the ever increasing glory of Scott, Louisiana, Wilson Landry showed signs of developing into S. L. I. ' s toughest scrapper in the past year. The Scott pride, flying the Bull- dogs ' trunks for his first season, was victorious in all but one fight. Next year he should be a very important cog iri the S. L. I. Bulldog ring squad. JOE DEVORE Before coming to S. L. I., Joe Devore gained national prestige in amateur boxing cir- cles by winning the Ha- waiian Amateur Cham- pionship. He justly de- served such recognition and authenticated it by showing S. L. I. fight fans that he could dish it out and take it in return. With little doubt, it can be said that at the end of the year, Joe De- vore was the outstand- ing fighter on the Bull- dog squad. His skill, his experience and his will- ingness marks him as a future great in boxing ranks. Two Hundred Fourteen Harlan Willey Cooper Doucet Claude Guidry HARLAN WILLEY Besides his writing abilities, Har- lan Willey developed his pugilistic talents since he enrolled at S. L. I. last year. Willey is gifted with a unique but pleasant style of fighting in which his powerful legs and arms are profitably used. Among the many victories under his belt, is a clean- cut decision over Claude Mason, Centenary ' s S. A. A. U. light heavy- weight champion. COOPER DOUCET From the eastern district of the Lone Star state, comes Cooper Wild- cat Doucet. As a go-getter in the square ring, Wildcat marked up many victories in the square ring. He showed alertness, skill and punch- ing ability against all of his oppon- ents and chalked the win columns very often. This season was his last as a member of the Bulldog squad. CLAUDE GUIDRY The only fighter to represent La- fayette on the boxing team was Claude Guidry, product of Lafayette High School. Guidry entered college at mid-term; however, that failed to handicap him as the record book indicates the numerous victories in his chart. A power-house, he used advantageously his terrific right- hand jaw clip and many of his bouts ended with T. K. O. victories for him. Two Hundred Fifteen 1938 VARSITY COACH R. L. BROWNE Track Coach and Athletic Director Is largely responsible for the great record established by the cinderpath athletes of Southwestern. Last year, the Bulldog light clads annexed the fourth consecuiive District S. I. A. A. track and field championship held at Pine- ville, Louisiana. Another highlight of the track season is the annual S. L. 1. Relay Carnival in which the Bull- dogs play hosts to hundreds of track stars from universi- ties, colleges and high schools of the south. JOE JOHNSTON In the annals of S. L. L track activities is the name of Joe Johnston as the best middle-distance runner ever to fly the local colors. As a senior - letterman, Johnston was voted alternate captain of the Bulldogs and he proved himself capable of this posi- tion. Unbeaten in the half- mile event, he won over rep- resentatives of L. S. U., Lou- isiana College, Normal, Stephen F. Austin, Tech and Mississippi College, being clocked at one time in 1:57.6. Formerly a long - winded trackster, Johnston is credited with the S. L A. A. mile run record of 4:28.2 minutes. RAOUL LANDRY Cow, as his teammates call him, has ended a bril- liant career as quarter-miler for the District Champions. In the course of his competitive years, he established a new S. I. A. A. mark of 49.2 in the one-oval event. His value to the Bulldog club is shown in that he was anchor man on the sensational baton-switch- ing quartet. Last year he fin- ished his track stay at S. L. I. by serving in the capacity of track captain. Two Hundred Sixteen SIDNEY LeBLANC Sid LeBlanc was one of the valuable cindermen on the Bulldog squad. His best events were the quarter mile, the half mile, the mile and the two-mile events. This list appears to be rather elon- gated, yet, it illustrates fully Sid ' s ability to fill a val- uable utility spot on the team. He was also a mem- ber of the famous Bulldog mile quartet. FITZ PHARR The little spike-man with the big jump — that ' s Fitz Spec Pharr. Spec was the high-jumping star of Coach Browne ' s track out- fit. As a first year track mem- ber he showed his worth against strenuous competi- tion; his greatest feat was winning a scoring position in the annual district S. I. A. A. track and field champion- ships. LeBlanc Jackson Pharr DELBERT JACKSON Jackson proved to be of great value to S. L. I. ' s track aggregation by amassing point-winning places in prac- tically every meet with the solid-plate — the discus. Ca- pably equipped with physi- cal and co-ordinating quali- ties, he displayed amazing form and wonderful ability with the disk. TRACK Two Hundred Seventeen 1938 VARSITY HAROLD BROCK This was Brock ' s first year in intercollegiate track com- petition. His best event was the grinding 220-yard low hurdles — one of the sport ' s most fatiguing running and jumping events. He showed great speed and performed capably throughout the past cinderpath season. RENE DOMINGUE A track find — who, for the first time in his career, donned track shoes as a Freshman two years ago. Domingue is naturally gifted with speed and agility and proved to be S. L. I. ' s best bet to gather in sprinting honors. Only a sophomore in college, Domingue has a brilliant track career ahead of him. HORACE ADKINS Little Shorty Adkins — brother of the famous S. L. I. high jump king, Big Shorty Adkins — decided to cast his lot in the dashes and broad- jump. Adkins, one of the campus ' s popular students, gave a stellar performance in his first try at collegiate cin- derpathing. He should prove a valuable asset to the com- ing Bulldog track squads. Brock Domingue Adkins Two Hundred Eighteen THEO ROGER A dark, curly-haired sprin- ter from Carencro. In high school he was among the best quarter-milers in the state of Louisiana. He suf- fered from a leg injury early in the track year; however, he soon recovered and of- fered his much-needed serv- ices to the Bulldogs. Besides starring in the quarter-mile he was a leading figure on the relay team. ANDRUS MARTINEZ A high school teammate of Roger ' s, Martinez is another Bulldog track star who has added considerably to the prestige of Carencro, Louisi- ana. His efforts were concen- trated towards gaining hon- ors for the Bulldogs in the 220-yard low hurdles. Being naturally suited by height and speed he is without a doubt S. L. L ' s best low-hurd- ler in years. Last year marked his first in South- western varsity track. TOM DUCREST As Joe Johnston ' s under- study in the two-oval run, Du- crest finished his first col- legiate track year in brilliant fashion. He possesses endur- ance, speed and timing qual- ities — the essentials of a qualified middle distance spikeman. Ducrest will bear the brunt of the Bulldog run- ning attack. TRACK Two Hundred Nineteen 1938 TRACK TARLTON DAIGLE Some years ago Coach Browne spotted Johnny Mor- ris and played an important part in Johnny ' s subsequent showing in national and uni- versal high hurdling compe- titions. Again, last year, Coach picked out Daigle — a novice in high hurdling — and began tutoring and develop- ing him for the event. Daigle responded slowly but defi- nitely, and looms as an ace on next year ' s Bulldog track team. WOODROW DIXON Leading the Bulldog pole- vaulters is Woodrow Dixon — a long, lanky and powerful athlete. Dixon finished his first year by repeatedly gain- ing winning points for the Bulldogs. IRVIN STIRLING The Bayou Flash who came, saw, puffed and puffed, then conquered — that ' s Stirling. He has the honor of being the most long- winded trackman on the squad — and he certainly had to possess that quality be- cause his efforts were ex- panded in the grueling two- mile event. Very often the first to break the tape, Stirling shows prospects of being un- beaten in the remainder of his track days at S. L. I. Daigle Dixon Stirling Two Hundred Twenty The Red Jacket Club did much to foster the spirit of Southwestern among the stu- dents and athletic fans of Lafayette and surrounding sections last season. When the spirit of the fans seemed to die at football games, the Red Jackets led the cheering that inspired the team with that fighting spirit so typical of Southwestern. At all foot- ball games the Red Jackets, led by the Band, entertained the spectators with fine for- mations on the field. To them goes the credit of being loyal supporters and boosters of Southwestern ' s athletic teams. RED JACKET CLUB Two Hundred Twenty-one WILLIAMSON PRINTING PUBLISHING COMPANY H. L.
