Without minimization of the place of extracurricular activities, social functions, and group living in-the rounded development of the student, one cannot ignore that e heart of the college educational process is the faculty. Without faculty mem- gers dévoted to quickening the growth of its students, with resultant inevitable changes in attitudes and horizons, a college cannot serve its proper function. To select and build a faculty of the necessary stature is the most important problem of the college administrator. What are the major qualities which identify the ideal instructor? First, he must have intellectual capacity and insight. Knowledge of the subject he teach- es, basically essential, must be supplemented by breadth of learning and by under- standing of the interrelationships of his subject and other fields. Secondly, he must be articulate, able to communicate his ideas to his students. Thirdly, he must have deep interest in his students as individuals, concerning himself with their variations in ability, background, and motivation, anxious to learn their needs and to fulfill these insofar as he may. Fourthly, he must have enthusiasm for teaching and for his subjec t. This enthusiasm is the surest motivation for the hard work and continued study that underlie all good teaching, for the con- stant search for more effective methods of presentation, for the continual re-evalu- ation of one’s teaching. ‘Too, the enthusiasm of the student can seldom be engendered except by the enthusiasm of the instructor. Finally, the instructor must have personal integrity. Honesty, fairness, and justice must be engrained in his being. At every grading period, for example, he faces a test of his ethical standards; only if he successfully passes this test of fairness and justice can he merit the respect of his students and aid to instill in them a similar ideal of person- al integrity. Inherent in these essentials, or entwined with them, are other estimable qualities which might be named. Cooperation and institutional loyalty can scare- ly be absent in a man of intelligence and personal integrity, or human sympathy and tolerance in a person deeply interested in his students. Where the five essentials are combined in a teacher the college administrator can be confident of the growth of his students under his warm and kindly light. With a faculty composed exclusively of men and women of such stature, details of curricula and course organization would become relatively insignificant. Education — in its truest sense — would be the end-result. ye A ies ee Ret He ae Evangeline Roberts We feel that Miss Evangeline Roberts ze Instructors) )_ PMO Hina sais Was RY oe TLL. 7 — ad ‘ exemplifies the ideal type of spoken of in the dedicat ting the first half of the 1952 AGRICOL to Miss Roberts. ion.

There are the events which are unfor- gettable—the last minute touchdown that won the game on that cold November night, the big dance-with the “name” band, our own per- sonal achievements, and finally graduation. Moreover, there are the little things—the little unimportant things such as the Coke in the Techionery, the conversation and cigarette between classes, the lazy afternoon in the Spring, the walk to the Dorm from the Library on a warm moonlight night, and the friendly dormitory life. All these things, the big and the little go together to give the real sematical meaning to that which we call “campus life.” It is the college atmos- phere which we have tried to portray in the 1952 AGRICOLA.

ANATOLE FRANCE 14 PND AVIA IR TE (G TAN TE 1 CQ) iN Although one would not disparage the contribution of the multitudin- ous non-academic experiences to the growth and development of the college student, the heart of college education lies in the quality of the faculty, in the knowledge, ideas, and attitudes imparted in classroom and personal conference. In building the faculty required by the growth of the College and its expansion to a degree-granting institution, ‘Tech has sought, as a primary consideration, to retain or add men and women of the stature essential to a strong educational program. Today, less than four years since Tech made its transition to a senior college, Tech has a faculty of which it and the state of Arkansas may well be proud. Measured by the objective criteria which accrediting agencies consider most important—amount of graduate study, preparation for their specialized teaching fields, master’s degrees, and doctor’s degrees—the Tech faculty takes second place to that of no other Arkansas college. Indicative of this strength, the faculty today averages two and one-half academic years of graduate study, almost twice the average graduate preparation of our faculty four years ago. More important, in the unmeasurable intangibles requisite to the best teaching the Tech faculty is, I believe, comparatively even stronger. Degrees and long graduate study will not, in themselves, insure fine teaching. Added must be sincere purpose, willingness to work, enthusiasm for teaching, and genuine interest in students as individuals. ‘These vital qualities the Tech faculty, as a whole, has to a degree unusual among college or university faculties, as students who have gone to other schools have frequently com- mented. The teamwork and loyalty of the faculty played an important part in the accreditation of Tech’s senior college program in the minimum amount of time. The strength of the faculty points inevitably toward a greater and greater Arkansas Tech of the future. A. J. CRABAUGH John R.

It appears that Mr. and Mrs. Rollow, Mr. Faulds, and Mr. and Mrs. Medley are staying within a rather short radius of the refreshments. —By the way I don’t see any Freshmen around, do you?

Mr. Hughes and Mr. Tucker are very interested in the food at one of the gatherings in the Green Room during the fall semester. At this particular gathering the student workers of the Dining Hall served a buffet snack to approximately two hundred high school football boys and band members. 16 H. W.

At the high school football and band boys “get together” in the Green Room, Mr. Witherspoon and the coaches were busy being friend- ly. Mr. Watson and Mr. Bynum seem to be very interested in the con- tents of Mr. Croom’s cup, but it looks as if they are not going to get any.

His football team plagued by more than their share of injuries and less than their share of returning lettermen had just been subjected to a stunning defeat by the underdog—College of the Ozarks. Caught in a moment of reflection, we wonder what the Coach’s thoughts are. 18 Charles Jones Assistant Professor of Psychology B. A., Galloway College, 1922; M.

Mr. Merrill and Mr. Crabaugh are caught in the act of drinking coffee out of their own special mugs or steins. ‘here is a certain group of faculty members that make several trips to the Techionery every day for coffee and conversation. It seems that these particular individuals did not prefer to drink coffee from a waxpaper cup, so they took up a collection and raised enough funds with which they could buy mugs. A student (Felix Dunagan) then graciously painted their names on their respective mugs — free of charge of course. Charles E. Reed, Jr. Assistant Professor of Speech B.

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION STAFF Recognizing the needs of large groups of young men for training in skilled trades, the Division of Vocational Education at Arkansas Poly- technic College offers courses in woodworking (both carpentry and cabinet making), auto mechanics, and machine shop. These non-credit courses, terminal in nature, are designed to enable the student to progress individually to gain the necessary proficiency as quickly as possible so that he may take his place in productive industry. Arkansas Polytechnic College has complete and modern workshops for training students in woodworking, auto mechanics, and machine shop. Through donation and purchase of machines and equipment released by the United States Army, the College has been able to expand greatly its training facilities in those fields. Equipment in the various shops is valued at more than $200,000. While the College does not guarantee placement of its vocational graduates, it maintains an employment advisory service to assist in placing such graduates in suitable employment. FAULDS, VINCENT R. Chairman of the Vocational Education Program Mr. Faulds is Assistant Professor of Industrial Edu- cation. He holds degrees of: B. A. E., University of Florida, 1939; M. Ed., University of Missouri, 1949; additional graduate study, University of Missouri. 2 y y Lovett, Elmer Woodworking Instructor Hamm, Elmer H.

DESCARTES 3111 West Pr esident John Rollow Class Sponsor ONS James C, Bohannon Marjorie Williams Hilda Presley Sherry Sherman Vice-President Secretary Reporter Treasurer I suppose every member of the faculty has, at one time or another, been faced with the realization that it might become his privilege to serve as a sponsor of some student group. It is really quite a nice feeling to know that some organization or class has, after careful consideration, decided it would have you as its sponsor in preference to anyone else. It was early this Fall when I was informed that I, in preference to all the rest of the faculty, had been chosen sponsor of the Junior Class. THE JUNIOR CLASS! ‘The class that finances the Junior-Senior Banquet, the class that finances the Junior-Senior Prom, the class that buys a float, the class that . . . I broke out in a cold sweat. That night I tried to put myself to sleep by counting Juniors instead of sheep — there were fifty-six. I went to sleep counting Seniors — there were ninety-six. At the time this is being written we are still looking desperately for finances, but I have confidence that the Junior Class will come through. In fact, I feel sure that any faculty member would be more than pleased to be the sponsor of this fine group of students next year because of their wonderful spirit of cooperation and unfailing dependability — besides Soho 8 Btbeer they'll be Seniors next year!

A very familiar sight — people going through one of the many doors on the campus, one of the many doors leading to a classroom or a lab. The reason is the same though the year or individuals might differ. There are doors such as this one on every campus in the United States, and although their outward appearances may not be the same — though one might be ivy covered marble and another modernistic steel and glass, they all lead to halls of learning. There are students such as these going through them day after day, month after month, year after year, with the intention of attending a lecture or taking an examination. It all adds up to the same result— happier, more complete lives, and a stronger America.

Hickerson, and Earl Chandler (back left to right) are shown in the general repair department where everything that other departments can’t take care of is sent. Vocational training at Tech has been carried on since the College was established. In 1935, the National Youth Administration launched a vocation- al training program, and Tech was selected as one of the centers for this work. NYA students were housed in a newly constructed group of buildings, and vocational work was carried on from 1935 to 1942. At the conclusion of the war, the shop was opened to train veterans, and a large amount of new equip- ment has been added. Arkansas Polytechnic College has always tried to meet needs in the educational training of as many people as possible in Arkansas and especially in this section of the state. To do this Tech is now, as in the past, giving training to many people who are not regular college students. Many of the students are disabled veterans, but a number are not veterans. They come to Tech because it offers something they cannot obtain elsewhere. The Auto-Mechanics course has usually had the largest enrollment of the three courses offered in the Vocational Training Program, This course complete- ly covers general Auto-Mechanics and also allows stu- dents to get special training in parts of the course where they want and need it. These specialized areas include such things as body and fender repair, radi- ator repair, engine rebuilding, brakes, tune-up, ig- nition, etc. The auto shop is equipped with the latest machines and auxiliary equipment, and _ is completely departmentalized. Jesse Lee Cassey and John Stewart are shown upstairs in the upholstery department above the auto shop. These men specialize in all types of auto upholstery. B. D. Stracner, Tester Whitley, O. C. Marlar, and S. G. Reed are in the body and fender repair shop. ‘This shop has done some of the finest repair work seen anywhere. M. D. Nichols, A. L. Carter, J. E. McGuire, Morris Morgan, and G. M. Womack are gath- ered around a rebuild job. They are grinding the crankshaft on this one. Sloan Youngblood, J. U. Wooten, Eugene Smith, R. D. Newsom, and Fred Furr are pic- tured in the engine rebuild department. They are giving a valve job to this motor. W. C. Smith, Lloyd Rudder, and H. E.

The machine shop is one of the largest and most complete in this section of the country. Here the student finds himself working with nearly a quarter of million dollars worth of equipment, and he may learn to use practically any kind of a machine com- monly employed in industry. Students in this course learn to set-up and operate all of these basic machines usually found in industrial plants. Since the enrollment in the Veterans Training f=) Program is steadily decreasing due to the cut-off date for training under the G. ‘ Bill, plans are being made to utilize the equipment and seh of the Voca- tional Department. A plan to set up an area trade school in conjunc- tion with the high schools of this area is being worked out at the present time. The proposal is to include Jr. and Sr. students who desire this type of training. ‘They will attend shop classes at Tech for half of each day. The other half day will be spent in the regular high schools in which they are enrolled, taking the other courses which are necessary for graduation. This plan is still tentative, but should be definite- ly decided upon before our next school year. The proposed plan has the whole- hearted support of all the superintendents in this area and the State De- partment of Education as well. Several other proposals for utilizing our equip- ment and personnel are being considered, but are too tentative a nature to warrant a definite statement at the present time. This is a view of the south end of the machine shop. The men running the machinist lathes are W. A. Murphy, Grady Harris, Harvey Severn, Vernon Ruble, W. L. Penner, and Lawrence Edwards. From left to right are Grady Wait, Hollan Worth, Perry Seward, A. L. Davis, and V. A. McCabe. These are large machinists lathes and are used for more intricate metal tooling. The two men in front are Lawrence Wooten and H. F. Summers. ‘They and the three in back (Willie Gos- wick, James Poynter, and Floyd McClain) are shown run- ning a large surface grinder. Much welding is done in the repair or manufacture of metal parts. ‘These men are shown doing some acety- lene torch work. From left to right, they are J. D. Wil- liams, E. G. Horne, and J. T. Hood. Beautiful examples of fine workmanship are produced everyday in the woodworking de- partment. Surrounding the fine chest that has just been completed are: Wilburn Hern, Curtis Bishop, Paul Raley, Don Hudson, and Archie Miller. The College has three shops, all equipped and staffed for different fields of training. ‘The program requires two years to complete, but many of the stu- dents find that they are ready to take a job in private 66 industry long before they have finished the prescribed course. General education as well as technical edu- cation is an important part of the Vocational Pro- gram. Students who have not finished high school are given training in English, math, and drawing, lead- ing to a high school diploma. Those students who have a diploma are allowed to take any courses in college which they need or want. The Woodworking course, like the Auto-Mech- anics course, offers general training and the chance to get special training in several areas. ‘These areas include building construction, millwork, cabinet mak- ing, upholstery, finishing, etc. As the shop is depart- mentalized, the trainee moves from one department to another as he learns different phases of the work. At the beginning of the course, he spends his time with rough work, gradually progressing to finishing and upholstering on some of the finest furniture. % Eldred Lee is shown turning some woodwork- ing tools in to Lee R.

Leon Goddard, Willie Wheeler, Joe Dixson, and Joseph Phillips are shown pausing a moment from their work in the finishing department. The men in the woodworking department have the privilege of actually designing their own particular project on the drawing table with the able assistance of Mr. Hale and then car- rying it through every step of manufacture to the completion. ‘Thereby they have a work of original craftsmanship which they can call their own.

S. spon- sored “Open House,” which was held in Cara- way Hall. Every girl was introduced to every boy, dancing and singing were encouraged, and refreshments were served. In October, the A. W. S. sponsored a very informal “Pajama Party,” held in the lounge of Caraway Hall. Every girl enrolled at ‘Tech was invited to attend. Parker Hall and Faculty Dormitory each presented a stunt, and Cara- way Hall presented one stunt from each floor. The Executive Council, encouraged by the Administration, put into effect a program to en- courage better scholarship for those girls who did not have a 2.00 grade average. A. W. S. President Susie West was elected to ride the A. W. S. convertible in the Home- coming Parade. The convertible was decorated by the girls in Caraway Hall.

This show is composed of requested Hit Parade ‘Tunes, fan mail, wild sound effects, and take-offs on anything from soap operas to commer- cials. ‘The boys have done considerable original script writing, but usually the program is strictly ad lib. “Mood Time Melodies’ (formerly “Holland’s Holiday’) is a nightly Tech request program featuring dreamy music. “It’s forty minutes of the best on record!” according to Bill Holland who was emcee of the program when it was known as “Holland’s Holiday’. Since Bill left the program is now being handled by George Crosby and Jim Wood. The Tech newscast, a fifteen minute weekly program ,is presented by Dave Shaw and Pat Jordan.

In retro- spect one will notice many hard-fought games most of which were stunning defeats and a few which were victories. The most notable victory of the season was the happy win over ASTC. The majority of us will, I think, remember the the response of the administration in giving the student body a holiday on the first Monday after the game. In addition, there were a few indi- vidual standouts of the season—notably Billy Bob Elliott, Sammy May, Fay Pew, I. E. Turner, Lloyd Koontz, and Jimmy Cooke. There were a few notable plays including the touchdown re- turn of the initial kick-off by Paul Pugh against Little Rock J. C., the forty-three yard field goal that won the game against ASTC from the toe of Jimmie Cooke. However, the outstanding thing of the season was the support that our losing team received from the student body. This in itself is proof that football can be played as a clean, exciting sport win or lose and that students of Arkansas Tech will stand behind their team if it is on its way to a sixth straight championship or when it is losing, as long as it is a tair and hard fought game.

Arkansas ‘Tech boasts quite an impress- ive coaching staff in the person of Ray- mond (Rabbit) Burnett, head coach; Fir- man (Nig) Bynum, assistant coach; and Fred Croom, assistant coach. These three men are caught by the camera in the last moments of the Ozarks’ game when defeat was a certainty. It was late afternoon and this was the last game of the season and the Wonder Boys had been plagued by in- juries and defeats throughout the year. Yet we do not see defeat in the faces of these three men, but rather a determina- tion. Their eyes are focused on the action, but their thoughts seem to be focused on the future. | | ; | Billy Bob Elliott, powerful 205 pound senior guard, was Tech’s only all-stater this year. His terrific line play, on both offense and defense, was a decisive factor in many games this year. ‘Tech will remember Billy Bob as one of the all time linemen to wear a Wonder Boy uniform. A Henderson Reddie hits a stone wall as I. E. Turner (54), Albert Benight (62), Bobby Gray and Fay Pew pile him up. Hugh Parker (82) is following the play and Joel Muse (57) is coming in to help. Oh, oh, it looks as if there is a penalty on the play — see the handkerchief that the referee has just thrown. The hundreds of faces registering various degrees of emotion at a football game are, paradoxically, rare- ly ever seen by an observer. The reason is simply that at a time when such tension is in the air all the possible observers are themselves a part of the crowd and are seeing only the thrilling run or tackle and never think of looking at the people surrounding them. If some interested person could achieve the detachment necessary and take the time to look around himself he could not possibly see more than a mere Albert Benight, fraction of all that was taking place about him. However, with a camera in our hands we can record the panorama of a crowd packed with emotions. We can preserve one moment ol the crowd’s expressions and movement with the aid of the emotionally de- tached lens and film. ‘Then, later on at our leisure, we may see more than we could possibly have seen if we had taken time to look around at the scene near us, rather than at the perhaps less spectacular one occurring on the field. from Little Rock, Lloyd Goontz, 230 pound junior from Blythe- played under Coach Burnett in high school.

THE SEASON 1951-52 Only eighteen lettermen greeted coaches Burnett, Bynum, and Croom when football practice began on Buerkle Field last fall. Four 1950 squadmen and twenty-four freshmen rounded out the Tech roster. The Tech mentors worked hard preparing the green crew for the opening game with Arkansas State, September 29. This was the first meeting of these two Arkansas football powers since 1922. The Indians, who became the only team in the nation to accept two Bowl bids at the close of the season, proved too much for the inexperienced Wonder Boys, 41-6. The second game on the slate was with mighty Southern State, who eventually won the AIC title. The Techsters journeyed to Magnolia and were turned back 27-7 by the Muleriders. Then on October 13, came Dad’s Day, and the only out-of-state opponent the Wonder Boys faced this year.

He holds letters in Edmond, Okla., did their best to break the Tech tra- dition of never losing a Dad’s Day game. It looked as if they had succeeded until Bobby Armitage tallied to overcome a 20-19 deficit with only four minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. The Wonder Boys won, 25-20. Next for the Techsters was a trip to Conway to battle Tech’s arch-rival, State Teachers. The terrific rivalry between these two schools reached its height in the pep meeting on the Teachers campus Saturday afternoon. ‘The underdog Wonder Boys did not let the many Tech students and supporters who followed the team to Conway down. They won, 16-13, in a terrific battle climaxed by a forty-three yard field goal from the toe of freshman half-back, Jimmy Cooke. The Wonder Boys were redeemed for any former de- feats. Any season when the Techsters defeat the Bears is a successful one. Voris Johnson, senior end from North Lit- tle Rock, is rated as one of the best pass re- football, basketball, baseball, and track. Al- though a knee injury kept him sidelined for several games, he was on the all-state third team. Three big ole Indian boys from Edmond, Oklahoma, ride down the Tech ball carrier in the Dad’s Day game. That is one ball carrier with lots of interference. Those Indians sure are affectionate, aren't they! % On Thanksgiving the day was dull, the Wonder Boys were a little dispirited, the student body was disappointed — the score was Ozark, 34-TVech, 26. At this point in the game the cheerleaders are getting to- gether and deciding on the next yell to encourage the boys in efforts to stave off what turned out to be a very painful defeat. However, it looks as if Perkie and Footsie are having a little conflict over the choice of the next yell, and it seemed as though Tech was having trouble deciding on which goal to run at — a bad, bad, day! | THE SEASON (Continued) y On October 27, the Tech clan went to Arkadel- The Wonder Boys made their annual visit to War phia to play winless Ouachita Baptist College.

Well, we won the game making our season successful. Jimmy Cooke’s field goal did the job. Score—Arkansas Tech 16 — State Teachers 13. The cheerleaders are putting their all into it, but the rooters responded with troubled expres- sions — that one in the middle is Susie Fullerton doing the back-bend while suspended in mid-air.

Ten boys, just out of high school, stepped into the ranks of the team and filled vacancies left by such greats as Dopson, Tabor, Carmack, and Massey and ran over every op- ponent in the State. Wallick, Baker, and Ruff were the only veteran ball players on the team, yet these three and ten freshmen out-played, out-fought, out- faked, out-scored, and out-classed teams which had lost no important men from their squad. This team coached by Sam Hindsman fought and played its way right into the hearts of the students and faculty of Arkansas Tech. They were indeed Wonder Boys. The results of the superb coaching of Mr. Hindsman is evident in this victory shot taken immediately after the team had won the NAIB playoff tournament in Little Rock. Coach Hindsman does not over- look much in the making of a champ- ionship team. He is constantly en- couraging team spirit which has been the deciding factor in the winning of a great many games. Left to right are: Donovan Horn, Danny Ruff, Bill Grant, James Hudspeth, David Sacrey, Burlin Hefley, Kenneth Keeling, Don Rempel, Bill Stanley, E. C. O'Neal, Gene Wallick, Billy Bert Baker, Paul Martin, Willard Smith, and Dayid Camfield. Kneeling in the center are Sam Hindsman, coach, and James Bohannon, trainer. Freshmen members of the team. The pre-season crystal gazers could see nothing oO 2 better than third place in the AIC basketball race for the Wonder Boys this year. The names of Dopson, Tabor, Carmack, Massey, and Collier, the men who had brought the title to Russellville for the last three years, were absent from the Tech roster when the cur- rent season opened against the Leslie Independents in Marshall, December 1. However, the Wonder Boys led by Baker, Ruff, and Wallick, the only returning lettermen, trounced the former college stars, 73-72. The Techsters followed up this victory by defeat- ing Beebe Junior College twice, and opened AIC play by rolling over Hendrix, 61-64, and College of the Ozarks, 58-31. Much to everyone’s amazement, Coach Sam Hindsman used a two platoon system in almost every game during the season. ‘The second platoon was made up of five freshmen, but these youngsters more than held up their end of the work. On December 15, the Wonder Boys had _ their first real test, a game with the Bears of ASTC in Con- way. The Bears were easy for them, 55-50. Arkansas State, the team rated as a sure title winner, came to Russellville the night school let out for Christmas va- cation, but most of the student body stayed to see the Wonder Boys edge the Indians 52-50. Pint-sized Dono- van Horn and big E. C. O’Neal, two freshmen who broke into the starting line-up, were too much for the Indians, and the Wonder Boys were on their way to another AIC title. During the Christmas vacation Tech entered the Enid Invitational Tournament. Here they suffered their first defeat, losing to Ft. Hays State, 74-59. They split two more games at Enid. The Wonder Boys opened 1952, by knocking off Monticello A. M. and Little Rock Junior College with no difficulty. Then came the second game with the Arkansas State Indians, and another two-point victory, 61-59. They were over the hump now, and _breezed through victorious games with Henderson, Arkansas College, Southern State, Henderson again, Ouachita, Little Rock, J. C. Again, Arkansas College again, Hendrix and Monticello A. M. without trouble. In every life some rain must fall, and it fell on the Wonder Boys when State Teachers invaded the Tech Armory, February 16, and trounced them sound- ly, 74-59. This was the only conference defeat the Wonder Boys suffered. The rest of the regular season was anti-climactic with the Tech clan breezing through the three remain- ing games on the schedule without difficulty. ‘The representative from Arkansas to the NAIB Tournament in Kansas City, was decided by a tourna- ment in Little Rock this year, and the four lead- ing teams, Tech, State Teachers, Southern State, and Arkansas State were invited. The Wonder Boys downed Southern State 66-56 in the first game, and gained sweet revenge by rolling over State Teachers in the finals, 50-39. The trip to Kansas City and the NAIB was cut short by powerful Southwest Texas in the first game, when they overpowered the Techsters, 97-54. All in all, the Wonder Boys played twenty-nine games and won twenty-five of them. In conference games, they won nineteen and lost one. Gene Wallick, the only senior on the squad and Billy Bert Baker, a junior, were selected on the All-State team. The person that belongs to the helpless looking hand protruding from the mass of humanity is Dono- van Horn, being embraced by five team mates after the astonishing victory over Arkansas State. Hundreds of painful tensions were released instantaneously at the final gun and everyone looked at the scoreboard again to make sure that the Wonder Boys had actually won. In fact, of all the people present there was only one person that appeared nonchalant and very much at ease. That person was Donovan Horn, who during the entire game, no matter what the pressure, was cool, calm, and collected, commanding at all times the very obvious respect of the Indians. The veteran Indians were noted and feared through- out the State for their fast brand of floor play, but the Wonder Boys beat them at their own game. Horn ex- hibits here the style of dribbling which left them gasp- ing, bewildered, and beaten. After dribbling around his guard and manufacturing an opening by out- maneuvering his opponents, Horn rises off the floor for another of his un- believably casual but accurate shots. E. C. O’Neal, freshman from Coun- Danny Ruff, a junior from West- ty Line, stepped into the difficult Gene “Foxy” Wallick is the only Billy Bert Baker, a junior from ern Grove, is recognized as the best ienior of the squad this year. He was thosen as the most valuable player n the conference, the second time he las won All-State honors. “Fox” is a sreat rebounder, an outstanding floor nan, and a consistent scorer. He was ‘econd in scoring this season with . 9.8 points per game average. Gilbert, was selected on the All-State five. He led the Wonder Boys in scoring this year with 299 points in 29 games for a 10.3 point per game average. Bill is a great scrapper and never quits hustling. Next year’s team will: probably be built around this top performer. ball hawk in the Conference. His hustle and drive earned him a _ posi- tion at guard on the third team in the All-State selections. He averaged seven points per game this season, but his floor play was his outstanding feature. He'll be back next year un- less he is drafted. task of filling the spot left by Deward Depson, and did a great job of it. Big E.

He im- proved continually during the sea- son, and should be a great asset to ‘Tech’s athletic program for the next three years. Boys! Fellas! That’s no way to act! The ball is over a-way. Willard Smith, freshman from Clin- ton, was the sparkplug of Coach Hinds- man’s second platoon. His jump shot contributed to many ‘Tech victories. While playing less than half the time, he averaged 8.3 points per game. Wil- lard will be a top candidate for a start- ing berth next year. this- Donovan Horn, pint-sized freshman from St. Joe, won a guard spot on the first five and proved that basketball is not a big man’s game by consistently showing up taller opponents. He was picked on the third team in the AIll- State selections. Horn averaged 9.1 points per game, third among the Won- der Boys. He celebrated his eighteenth birthday during the basketball season. Kenneth Keeling, freshman forward from St. Joe, is a good rebounder and defensive man. He led the Wonder Boys in shooting percentages by mak- ing 53 per cent of his field goal at- tempts. Bill “Sachmo” Stanley, gangling center from Fort Smith, earned his} first letter this year. Bill is a gooc} rebounder, a great hustler, and a con stant scoring theat. He made mor¢ than 50 per cent of his shots this year He will be a big factor in ‘Tech’ basketball program for the next thre¢ years. One ball—six arms are grasping for it, thousands of eyes are looking at it, and one camera stops it to preserve its omnipotence for posterity. It’s mine, you two guys can’t have it — it’s mine and I’m aimin’ to keep it. That’s it Danny, plead with it and it'll come back. Say! That’s a sneaky thing to do. Can’t you fellows see that Dave’s head is a lot fuzzier than the ball? You can’t scare Billy Bert, he’s too cool. Watch him go right on up and make that basket. That ball is certainly an illusive sort of a thing isn’t it? % 122 Paul Ray Martin, freshman from James Hudspeth, guard from St. Joe, , Marshall, is a hustling guard with a shows a lot of promise. James is a great eye for the basket. He is a good floor man and hits the basket good defensive man and handles the consistently. He played a lot of ball ball well. With three years left to go, in the “second platoon’, and will be he could develop into a great college around three more years. player. Isn’t it amazing and amusing what the camera will see that the crowd and referees will completely miss. For instance, every eye on the court and in the stands was probably focused on the ball and those reaching toward it, and the chances are that the over- anxious Southern State boy in the foreground who is engaging in la- shove was not seen by the crowd or refs. Camfield, freshman Siloam Springs, was used a lot at guard. He is a heady, alert ball player, and developed into a fine floor man. David Sacrey, freshman center from Russellville, joined the team late be- cause of football, but came along fast. Dave has a good hook shot, and will undoubtedly see more action next year. 124 Gene Wallick backboard all season long. there “‘firstest’” with O’Neal were standouts around the Here they are seen preparing to be the “mostest’’ if that shot bounces off. Don Rempel, freshman from Ber- ryville, didn’t see much action this year, but has now made the change to col- lege ball. Don will be here three more years, and could develop into a starter next season, All-Staters: Gene Wallick, Billy Bert Baker. James C. Bohannon is a busy man at Tech. Besides being a full-time student, he is Athletic Trainer for all athletic teams at Tech. Bo’s job is full of many little jobs that take a skilled hand to perform. In addition to doctoring the team, his duties are multiplied when the team takes to the road. Equipment must be packed, balls properly aired, and if the team leaves early he has to make sure everyone wakes up. He usually drives a vehicle to and from the school that Tech is playing and during the game “literal- ly sweats out the score.” Bo’s objective is to be a good coach, which he certain- ly should achieve after being in such close contact with the various athletic teams and coaches.

Very few of the dependable point- getters have been around in the last couple of years. The only mainstay to return was Arnold Bowden who has been very serious in his aspirations to take the State 880 and one mile run. There are, at this time, quite a few freshmen out for track, and ‘Tech’s chances for a place in the State Meet are very much increased by a few of them. Dave Sacrecy and Sammy May, according to this pre-season calculation, will run the opponents ragged in several track and field events. David Embry is promising in the one-half mile run, and Guy Lisenby is showing up well at the pole vault. Track is coached by “Nig” Bynum. Arnold Bowden, a consistent point winner for Tech in the 880 and mile runs, works out early in the season. Griffin Duncan, Billy Ash- more, Charles Rose, and Russell Dahl are shown taking a few laps while the air was still a little bit chilly. WAL) eSB PRR NCP OBESE PALAU PPT Bob and Merle Briley are two boys that hope to carry the weight for Tech in the com- ing season. Griffin Duncan whose specialty is the broad jump is getting ready for a start. Griffin is one of the returning lettermen on the track team this year. Sammy May sets the pace around the curve as Guy Lisenby, Bill Davis, and Gerald Goff follow up. All these boys are freshmen and we are expecting great things from them. Shown in the starting position are Fay Pew, Dave Sacrey, David Embry, and James Mayhugh. Much of this season’s success will depend on freshmen such as Dave Sacrey. Charles Robinette who is active in Intramural sports is trying out for the varsity team this season. Charles Manus is another of the few returning track let- termen. Manus runs both the high and low hurdles. TRACK |B CHEERLEADERS The crowds yelled long and hard for these peppy cheerlead- ers who added much spirit to the season.

Pee erry tl ES “Monsieur, les autres personnes qui habitent cet hotel protest- ent contre ce bruit insupportable.” — LOUIS XIV 133 134 The Tech Marching Band, under the direction of Gene Witherspoon, was one of the most active organi- zations on the campus during the fall semester. Pa- rades, fairs, and rodeos throughout the Arkansas Riv- er Valley called for the Tech Band to help enter- tain the thousands of spectators. Band pageantry was presented in all of its splen- dor during the football season as the band presented six original halftime shows. Highlighting these presen- tations were: “The ‘Tech Circus” — The “Circus” contained the three traditional rings, the circus march- es, the ringmaster, clowns, acrobats, dancers, a lion tamer, and a variety of lighted formations that amazed and amused the public; “The Red Feather” — a fif- teen minute salute to the Community Chest Drive in the Greater Little Rock area, contained six forma- tions and nine musical selections; ““The Tech Sc rap- book” — the Homecoming show, turned the pages of Tech history to “spotlight” the best remembered events of the past; and “Here Comes Santa” — the opening of the Christmas Season for the Russellville area. The Tech Band is acclaimed to be one of the finest “‘show-bands” in the state and the past season serves to sub- stantiate such opinions. Hats off to the drum major and majorettes this season. Many envious eyes were turned our way when they saw our majorettes and band.

This year their rendition of such numbers and the quartet is continually on the go at Christmas time meeting their tight schedule. Aside from the fact that the group has a very de- lightful repertoire and a capable director, one is im- pressed with the personality of the boys. This, we feel, has contributed much to the success of the group. Mr. Medley and the boys have fun as they work out on one of their lighter numbers. —_ “I Choir Roll Ist Row: Jimmie Fenn Peggy Wiseman Emma Jo Carothers Bob Cash Dean Hudson George Crosby Anna Reasoner Darlene Jones Jerry Caveness 2nd Row: Betty Owens Laura Lee VanMeter | Jane Skidmore Don Crosby Hosa Lee Shepheid Susie Joe Peggy Williams Retha Nelle Garrison 3rd Row: Maxine Martin Jennie Niederlander David Shaw Jerry Hines Boyce Bishop Suzi Lewis Erma Bassett 4th Row: Sherry Sherman -atsy Clark Kent Rice Griffin Duncan Alon Athey Mirl Bartlett Julia Caldwell Frankie Denton Lest Row: Patsy Lawrence Warren Hook Grady Hall 3111 Nichols Bob Casey 3111 Cockerham Phillip Jacobs Phyllis George C) “UO “UO m [mes C) eI] O 7,8) Membership in the Tech A Cappella Choir is limited to those students whose voices are approved through try-outs held during the first two weeks of the school year. All students accepted are admitted to the class, but only forty voices are used for per- formances. Each year the choir makes a tour appear- ing at many towns and schools in the state. Single ap- pearances are made in Russellville and surrounding ee towns. The choir has become a vital part of campus ac- tivities, performing at assemblies and other school Se eet functions such as the Dad’s Day program and _ the Christmas Vesper program. This year the choir is under the direction of Miss Virginia Sue Williamson, acting chairman of the Fine Arts Division. The choir is an outstanding campus organization and is well- known throughout the state. Miss Virginia Sue Williamson has done a commendable job with the choir. The snap shows the choir at one of its regular afternoon rehearsals with Miss Williamson directing. Members of the Choir not pictured are: y Betty Jo Jones, Bill Holland, Bobby Hicks Moore, Ginia Parton, Bill Vaughn, Carroll Moseley, Louan VanDover, Bob Cartwright, Bobbie Holland, Polly Lefler, and Richard Dedman. 139 4 H i j i| i i 140 OR @ iE Saiaes The Arkansas Tech Orchestra under the direction of Gene Witherspoon and one of Arkansas’ most popular musical organizations, is sponsored by the music department. The dance band plays for almost all of the engagements on the campus—formalls, stu- dent dances, and music for banquets and other social functions. Boasting a library of several hundred selec- tions, the orchestra varies its style to meet the demand of the students. Outstanding numbers this year in- clude: Sherry Sherman’s version of ‘Melancholy Rhapsody” and “Say It Isn’t So,” Don Crosby’s vocals on “Loveliest Night of the Year” and “Cry,” the Dixie- land group’s version of “Down Yonder’ and “When the Saints Go Marching In,” and the complete or- chestra on “Lover,” “Blues from American In Paris,” “My Ideal,” “Fishmarket,’’ and “Boogie Blues.” Newsum is taking a little ride on the brass at the Freshman Reception dance.

The ‘Tech Theatre Guild players under Mr. Reed’s direction have presented two plays this year, and rehearsals are in progress for a third production. [ The first Guild production was a six-day run of | Christopher Marlowe’s “The Tragical History of Doc- tor Faustus.” The plot of the play centered around Dr. Faustus’ decision to resort to magic and the black arts in order to achieve his goals. The difficult role of Faustus was played by George Crosby. Mr. Reed accomplished his usual dramatic effects with the | | | | lighting and the set. “Dear Ruth”, a delightful comedy followed Dr. Faustus. Rehearsals are now in progress for Shakespeare’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream.” Mr. Reed plans to use the original incidental music, “Midsummer Night’s | Dream” in the production. This composition by Mendelssohn was the first incidental music to be at- tached to the presentation of the play. This play will have a cast of about eighteen students. Charles E.
