Bakersfield College - Raconteur Yearbook (Bakersfield, CA)

Text from Pages 1 - 160 of the 1950 volume:

1963 Raconteur Bakersfield College today is the product of her yesterdays. In fifty years she hots expanded from ink wells to typewriters, from blackboard sketches to teaching machines, from tinker toy interplanetary models to the most advanced planetarium. Sweeping external change jolts only the retiring alumni, for their college is What she was. What she is to the present student is the Campus Center filled With tangled hum of voices, blare of a dance band, ringing of CI telephone. It is the quick squeeze of CI hand in the library, the press of Ct line to CI ticket booth, the smell of spraynet, of chili beans, of rain, of dust, of fog. It is the sound of feet on the pavement during a break, the hush of voices in the classroom, t the stirring of coffee, the lone trumpeteer playing I Left My Heart In San Francisco. Yet the essence of Bakersfield College is not in these, but in ideas. Today, as in the past, ideas are born in the classroom, nurtured in the shower, contemplated on the solitary walk through campus after three on Friday, and developed in the Campus Center over half filled cups of coffee and many cigarettes. In the realm of ideas, BC rests firmly upon her motto, Only the educated are free. F or a college is more than buildings, students, faculty, or even books. It is the perpetuator of intellectual Challenge, of inquiry, of discovery, of ideas. And this is Bakersfield College . . . Published by Associated Students Bakersfield College Bakersfield, California The Bakersfield College student is first attracted to the excitement... He ofcoHegel in moments of contemplation . .. . . . to the significance of ideas. 10 Faculty and Administration Change yields to change in fifty yearse buildings, techniques, courses, faces- but the essence of CI college remains: the classroom and the teacher and the student. In the classroom the smell of chalk and fresh mimeo ink, of raccoon collars and perfume, the low cough, the nervous titter during c1 test, the hearty laugh, pen scratch and the tick of clock, scrawl on the board, the sun through slanted vents, the Flage all the familiar and the everyday here for all, C: world of ideas. From high school teachers part time to 153 full-time college instructors With eighteen Ph.DXse filling the boards with yellow formulate, the test tube With acid and base, ovens With pottery and bottle With formaldehyde plus a frog, the false sky With constellations and purpled ditto With poetry, and all the minds With thought. And if the pupil hears over the stomach's growl at 12: 18, sees beyond the feet Of the lass who fidgets in the front row seat, thinks beyond the eager anticipation of spring vacation, and ignores the tension knarls, recalls the printed page of late night hours and quick last-minute glance at penciled notes, in the moments of examination a new light dawns, cm eye is opened, CI friend is made, and the pupil becomes Ct student. 12 11H 1:11111111 Dr. Edward Simonsen :11; 111 As the fiftieth year of Bakersfield College Closes and you are caught X the whirl of 1111011 examinations, Baccalaureate, the Sopho- more Honor Brunch, Commencement and the many social activities, yo11 Ihqy reflect with pride and satisfaction on the college, its fine eputCItlon and its significant accomplishments. Many of the events of this remarkable year have paid tribute to , fifty ye rs of service to this community by Bokersfie1c1 College and 1 have odded to its stature. Memorab1e among these were the colorful ' Homecoming which was highlighted by the visit of Miss Grace Bird ,- and Dr.Bc11ph Prator, the two presidents who served from 1921 to 1958, the series of concerts and lectures brought by' 'BC Presents, the art 1 1 onvocotion, the student body plays, the Renegade Bond and Choir concerts, and the dedication of the new Mathematics Science -- Building and planetarium. 1 Wht1e these have been the colorful public occasions which en- and are cm integrod port of a full college life, the essence of achmplishments during this year lies in the understanding and knowledge that each of you has gained through contact with instruc- tors. With the 1ibrorry, with textbooks, with 1e1low students, and with the stimulating atmosphere of c: college campus.

Board of Trustees u H H $57 Fifty years ago BC and Bakersfield High School students attended school together on one campus. On March 13, 1950 the Board of Trustees authorized the establishment of Q separate campus for the college. A year later a 153 acre site was purchased. Cornerstone ceremonies for the campus we know today were conducted on April 30, 1955, in connec- tion with Public Schools Week activities. F u11- time instruction began April 2, 1956. The Kern Joint Junior College District became Ct sepa- rate legal entity on July 1, 1961 via c1 special election. Present Board members, who are elected by the citizens of the District, c:11 hold college degrees and are highly respected business and professional men in the community. 11 ' mmu nu Dean of China Lake Evening Division t far 5V Assistant Dean of Evening Division , 'r$ , Omar Scheidt Efficiency in their chosen fields is the goal of the Deans, as well as of the stu- dents of Bakersfield College.

The Division integrates the liberal arts of philosophy, logic, humanities, world religions, mythology, literature, art and music. The creed of the human- ist ise'T am a human being; there- fore, all that concerns humanity con- cerns me. Under this philosophy the Humanities Division attempts to instill a spirit of free thought and individual creativity in all courses and instruction.

The experiences of an instructor Who spent CI year in South America on a Fullbright Grant a few years ago demonstrated how theoretical training is supplimated by practi- cal knowledge in the Social Science Division. . The Social Science Division has grown from a small division offering four courses during World War II, to C: major one today offering over thirty different courses. These courses range from Child psychology to the principles of economics and include classes in the principles of leadership and the history of California.

Four new teachers at BC plus three at China Lake brought the number of instructors in the Division to thirty-five. Out of this number six hold doctorates. The biggest change in the Division was the completion of the new $600,000 Science Building. One of its most out- standing features is a planetarium Where night time conditions are simu- lated during ClCISS hours. Red leather padded planetarium Chairs are tilted forty-five degrees for comfortable view- inqwand sleepy students. A large console makes it possible for an oper- ator to produce sound effects by mere- ly pressing buttons. Also included in the building are three drawing labs, Ct geology lab, the Nursing Department, and all math classes except engineer- ing math. Projected plans included moving two life science classes, CI meteorology class, and two chemistry classes into the building as enrollment increases.

For over thirty years the Physical Education Division shared a gym With Bakersfield High School. It is interesting to note that the first PE classes were composed of high school and college students, but that each group had a different as- signment. Now the Division is housed in a modern building with the most up-to-date equip- ment available. Training .in twenty-two Sports is offered to meet everyone's interests. And Gilbert Bishop Division Chairman in anyone possessing a Student Body Card may take advantage of the facilities. In the Division's first year there was one teacher. Now as- sisting Gil Bishop are fifteen in- structors from states from all over the Union With California Claiming the most. To teach at BC, the Physical Education in- structor needs either a IC, Gen- eral Secondary, or a Provisiona Credential. a Added this year is a Physical Fitness program. Out of the 1549 students tested, 955 placed in the fiftieth percentile or above. Herbert Loken Sybil Kane Physical Education Physical Education .

Fifty years ago instructors from other departments taught the few busi- ides:1 courses offered as part of their daily oa . Although half of the Business instructors are not native Californians, most of them were educated in this state. All of the teachers have actual experience in the business world. Perhaps the most common gripe of stu- dents in the Business Department is that the machines are so complicated. These complicated machines include rotary calculators, a key-driven calculator for math, and ten-key adding machines. . Until the present library building was constructed, it was located in the Business Building along With many of the math classes. As a result of expanded facilities, the Business Department was able to add more typing and accounting classes. One of the Department's instructors has co-authored two books used for reference by graduate students of business eco- nomics and marketing.

The cur- riculum varies from English to Auto Mechanics, Petroleum Mapping, Real Estate, and Home Pest Control. There has been a 600th: increase in enrollment from 1951 to the pres- ent. With nine classes at the start, the division now has eighteen times that many. In 1957etheir most outstanding yeareforty-six persons utilized this department to graduate. Instructors in the Evening Division are either regular day instructors, high school teachers With advanced degrees, or professional experts in the community. The Evening Division employs a trial and error system in Which many of the courses are introduced in the evening program and then later initiated in the day program. Sociology is one example.

In the past his life was the dance in the HS gym, the coke at the Dring-A-Link Drive-inn, the cdl-college picnic in the spring, goldfish qulpinq and bunnyhop, and the formal in the Women's Club.

But modern sophomore life is much more. , A pocket search for pennies for gas cash after Ct weekend at the coast, a Wish for semester break after February finals, and coffee late or ginger beer. And at the end, University, draft or trade or wedding bells and diapers.

From buzz-group politics on the islands in the middle of California Avenue to parliamentary procedure in the student lounge over coffee, from dilapidated boarding houses to brick and steel residence halls, from a borrowed high school band in different uniform to resplendent red and black tassled marching band, from government via administrative dictate to the Associated Students With Ct budget of $166,000. And today student life and the campus center go together. A blue-grey sky streaked With fuschic: after the rain, dust dulling the shiny surface topped with White Wire chairs, the squeak of the phone booth door, the click of heels, and wheeze of patentleather. The chirp of sparrows and the jungle of voices discussing classes and courses, meetings and committees, speakers and debates, concerts and films, dances, t and dates. t So the Center on Friday afternoon With its empty vending machines, bolted-down crsh trays, spilled cokes and grasping clumps of ice, smoldering cigarettes and used napkins, reveals the litter of hours filled With the tangled rush of activity, of idea and experiment, stimulation and joy of the student that Will be filled again. Spirit of progress Spirit is Bakersfield C01- legel It manifests itself not only in the inspired root- ing section but in many other ways. It is more than just the rah, rah, and the yea team of the field, the court, and the dia- mond. It is the will to learn, the drive to under- stand, and the striving to improve the individual and BC. Spirit at BC rises out of the students themselves. Spirit is exemplified through decisive leader- ship in student affairs. It provides motivation in the classroom. And it express- es itself through competi- tion on the playing field. Spirit rises with a new science building and with c: new Christmas tree and if the spirit of BC were to be expressed in a single word, that word would be progress.

Though Homecoming officially began with the Queen's Coronation, its real birth took place during the campaigning before the Queen's election by the Associated Student Body. Duties of Queen Ian Wattenberger included attending the President's Luncheon and reigning over the annual Patrons Barbe- cue. Highlights of the festivities were the Homecoming parade, won by the Residence Halls' entry, the football game, and the after-qame glance honoring Queen Ian and her court, Cheri Slikker and Verda arner. Homecoming was highlighted by the appearance of Miss Grace Van Dyke Bird and Dr. Ralph Prator, former Presidents, who served with Dr. Simonsen as parade marshals.

Board of Representatives In CI legislative capacity, the Board of Representatives has undertaken many projects this past year. Long remembered Will be the illegal campaigning which voided the constitu- tional amendments in an election, the new $15 student body card, the many resignations due to grades Which resulted in an amendment for lowering the 2.3 grade point average to 2.0 Which failed, and the money for Proposition 1A. Never forgotten Will be the Finance Committee's National Collegiate Baby Al- ligator Races, the fight to put the Business Managers of the Renegade Rip and the Raconteur back on the Board of Represen- tatives, the Bunion tree in the Powder Room, Miss Betty Judy, and the loss of the list of poster violations.

And this momentous event Alligator Races Many current events help shape the fu- ture life of today's students. Among them are the shots to the moon, crises in Cuba and the East, uprisings in Africa, labor problems, physical fitness programs, and fifty mile hikes. And never let it be said that BC stu- dents failed to accept these challenges to their stamina, courage, and determination to face the future. For BC has done her best to cooperate and keep students informed. Considering the BC Presents program, the Student Faculty Discussion Series, the in- formed'speakers, and other varied activities, BC has set the pace for her many students to follow. But there is one very unique activity that the BC Student Body alone sponsored. This activity involved such renowned institutions as Harvard, the University of Montana, Yale and the United States Coast Guard Acad- emy. Yes, BC can be proud of her outstand- ing 1963 activity e the National Collegiate Baby Alligator Races. Let's kiss and mctke up Helpefrorn the sidelines And Montana Wins Activities Board The Activities Board of Bakersfield College is comprised of representa- tives from each campus Club. The Board serves as liaison between the Board of Representatives and the in- dividual clubs. The Activities Board approves re- quests for dance dates, book and cake sales, movies: in effect for any activity a club may wish to sponsor. It also clears use of the campus center trophy cases and bulletin boards. At Board meetings problems are aired, sugges- tions discussed, rechartering of clubs initiated, and activities okayed. The Activities Board sponsors a Club conference each semester, a Club day, and co-sponsors the Spring Carnival with the Kraftsmen's Klub. And, most important, the Board is responsible for all BC Homecoming events. Without this Board, many time-con- suminq events would be the sole re- sponsibility of the Board of Representa- tives or would be left to the individual clubs or would not be accomplished at all. The Activities Board has an exact- ing job, but continues to excel in its work.

And the Court can expel students from membership in the ASB or recom- mend disciplinary action from the admin- istration. Quite often individual students or club members may be found washing Win- dows, dusting sills and picking up dishes in the Campus Center to pay a fine ad- judged by the Court. The Court handles all amendments and by-laws to the ASB Legal Code. Through it, all proposed changes are examined and brought With suggestions and criti- cisms to the Board.

Future plans include the addition of two more plays and the presentation of at least one major performance in the outdoor theater. Bakersfield College has one of the finest equipped stages of any junior college in the state. Up-to-date lighting devices and cm electronic switchboard help complete the de- partment facilities. Recently the Bakersfield College Players received national recognition for their premier production of the Chester Mystery Plays.

The assemblies are planned as cm extension of the academic curriculum as well as entertainment for every student. During the fall semester the Rene Revues, the Hom- cominq Queen Coronation, the all-club, freshman, and sophomore class assemblies were among the many inter- esting Friday events. The spring semester tradi- tionally brings the student- faculty discussion series. A1- Ways interesting and well-at- tended, this year's series was based on a central theme of Modern Marriage. Musical and dramatic productions from the BC Madrigcds, the God ,Poly road show and several fine films-such as 1984 and The COW and I , starring Fermandel - gave variety throughout the 50th year assembly program.

A balanced program, catering to the diversified tastes of students and fac- ulty alike, brings well-known artists to the campus and the community at col- legiate prices. Both contemporary and classic mu- sical preference were satisfied in the 82-63 season by the Brothers Pour, a . r folksinging group, and cm operatic Vincent Priceespeaker on art program Of Blum-Schwcqucher, mezzo soprano and tenor. The San Francisco Ballet demonstrated its contemporary 1: H attitudes and versatility during their t presentation of a modern ballet set to jazz. Walter Howe, former ambassa- dor to Chile, speaking on the growth of the Alliance for Progress program, and Vincent Price, actor and lecturer, discussing Three American Voices, provided interesting topics and per- sonalities to their audiences. Advocates t of fine drama were able to attend a UCLA Extension Theatre Group per- formance of Antigone, the greatest Greek tragedy, and A Wilde Evening With Shaw, CI three-act play inter- mingling the lives and works of these two English playwrights. 5.:- Antigoneepresented by UCLA The Brothers Fourefolk singers n- -- Margo Blum-mezzo soprano Dr HoWe-former ambassador to Chile Fine Arts Festival Multi-coiored flags covering the cam- pus heralded the fourth annual Fine Arts Festival at BC. Twenty-five hun- dred people Viewed, examined, and enjoyed exhibits of sculptures, paint- ings, photographs, and ceramics. Many who saw Search, a much dee bated steel and brass sculpture bolted on the outside of the Art Building, used it as a navigation aid for finding the exhibits. The Festival was not limited to ex- hibits alone. In morning programs in the College Theater, students demon- strated their fluency in French, Span- ish, and German, as well as English. In the evenings, Choral, drama, and dance groups entertained their Class- mates and guests from the community. Publications also highlighted the week. Campus Arts, the college's lite- rary magazine, presented its readers with an over-all View, not only of short stories and poems but of student mus- ical composition, cabinet making, and painting as well. The staff of the Rene- gade Rip devoted a special issue of the campus newspaper to previewing and reporting on the Festival. Community interest in the Fine Arts Festival has been strong, and local response to the artistic efforts of BC collegians was an originating purpose of the festival when it was begun four years ago. It was conceived as a way to communicate with the district, to make known what contributions Bak- ersfield College was making in the arts. At the same time, it provided a unique opportunity for students to gain recog- nition for their work.

Between vying for the prettiest girls in the slave sale and being dragged to the marriage booth by these same girls, the men found time to eat Choc- olate cake, lemon pie, divinity, cokes, grape snow cones, buttered popcorn, Cinnamon candied apples and mus- tard-laden hot dogs. In the morning the tired clean up committee waded through the result- ing tangle of streamers, confetti and wrappers-but even they didn't mind because the Spring Carnival was a success. Pie on the fly Graduation From the first graduation as- sembly in early April to the com- mencement reception after the final ceremony, the sophomore wades through endless paper work, runs to conflicting meet- ings, arrives breathless to class, and burrows in the books.

Hence baseball attendance suffers because of inadequate seating for Gode fans who stay home fearing the deteriorated bleachers. These bleachers were temporary when the college moved to the hill, yet they still remain. Their existence is CI blight on the progress of Bakersfield College. The Renegade Rip has supported their removal in an editorial. Students have asked for a change. The athletic department would profit from replacement. But most of all, spirit would rise, as spectators sit. ..comfortorb1y. Green omd brown and sickly gray Should yield to colors bright and gay. New baseball bleachers to watch them play.

What made this game unique was the fact that the men led the Cheers while the ladies toiled on the gridiron. Participants were the Dormies, sponsored by the Women's Resi- dence Hall, and the Renegettes, sponsored by the Renegade Rip. The Dormies captured the title of Queen Football by smothering the Renegettes 13-0, but the Gettes have vowed to even the score in next year's encounter. Dormie halfback Vicki Laverty as of now holds the Nylon Bowl all-time record for points scored in a single game. She tallied 12 of the game's thirteen points on two long touchdown runs. Dorm quarterback Kit Stone is the only other pointemaker in Nylon Bowl history, as she added the 13th point on a conversion run. The Dormie offense was sparked by Laverty, Stone, Linda Jones, a lefty passer, and speedy Emily DeMoss. The Renegette offense, which didn't show too much consistency but nevertheless was exciting, was handled by alternating tail- backs Martha Hunt, the team cap- tain, Iane Vincent, Virginia Brown, and Sheila McCreery. The Gette's main weapon was their defense-led by ends Ianie Eilts and Joan Kahler, and line- backers Marilyn tMad Dogt Nobles and Sharon Houck. The remainder of the line had Dee Rytko and Rose Platzek at tackles and a backfield of Carolyn Wolfe, Irene Whaley, and Brown. The only casualties were suf- fered in practice when Gette Cathy Lajoie broke her arm ahd Dormie Tami Schaffer cracked a finger.

He campaigned in the precinct, cheered for the team and attended plqys, concerts, forums, and films.

The Raconteur, from the French word for storyteller, relates the events of Bakersfield College 1963. The student receiving his Rec sees only the textured fifties on the cover, the vivid greens and yellows and blacks in the rcrin on the feature page, the portraits of his classmates in White jacket and cape. He reads the record of his Classes, of meetings, of discussions and dates and festivals and football games, of contests, carnivals, banquets, and basketball tourneys. To the staff the yearbook is- an unchanged calendar, office bulletin board filled With tangerine progress charts, blue map covered With pictures of NPOC'S and fuschia ink, bright sheets of color broken by class schedules, original drawings, marriage license and or cartoon from Playboy Deadlines; filled With the smell of coffee, the taste of Mexican pastry and stcde donuts, the Clutter and ping of typewriter, the Clonk-creek of papercutter, and the jungle of telephone, jumbled voices and tired laughter. To me the Rec meant grease pencil on my nose, circles and bags in my mirror, layouts that didn't fit, and cigarette smoke from friend, staff, and adviser. I remember arriving breathlessly at class, fighting drowsiness as I ferreted out the meaning of a 3 mm. translation, sitting in the Campus Center and discovering the sun, Checking layout, picture size, headline, initials, galley proof, and pasteup. searching for red pen, blue pencil, sparkling copy, and black magic. And now as I gather up my thesaurus, dic- tio'nary, kle'enex, piggy bank, and Cat, I turn in my key, take Ct last look, and leave. There's much to learn, but I know there is an art to living . . . and I, for one, intend to live. Margaret
