Truly these boys can be considered the finest in Bolton. This year John Hazleton, president of the Dramatics Club and Best All-round Senior Boy was elected Big Chief Cumtux.

Although the record in itself is not impressive, there were some bright spots in the playing of gridiron battles. Several times the Bruins defied the sport's writers who had picked them as the underdogs, and came out on top of the scoring column. They were ably quarterbacked by Doody Dinnat and Vic Michiels. The '55 Bears were a comparatively small team in individual man size although they suited out three full teams for every game. Throughout the year the team seemed to play best when the chips were down, this was shown especially in the game against Sulphur Hazleton, Wilmer Lindsley, Jerry Berlin, Ken Ed- wards, and Richard Gunter were outstanding. The aces of the backfield were Doody Dinnat, Bobby Lee, Lester Woods, Jimmy Lacour, Ed Sumner, Vic Michiels, J. V. Feduccia, and Roy Barmore. Scoring for the Bears this season were John Hazle- ton, 36 points, J. V. Feduccia, 30 points, Bobby Lee 25 points, Lester Woods, 24 points, Ed Sumner, l8 points, Doody Dinnat, 7 points, Albert LeBlue 6 points, Roy Barmore, 6 points, Jerry Daniel, 6 points, and Vic Michiels, 2 points.

BOLTON vs. BATON ROUGE The Baton Rouge Bulldogs, led by All- Stater Warren Rabb, downed the Blue and Whites in their first encounter of the sea- son 39-7. Although the Bruins looked bright in spots, the Capitol City boys were lust too powerful. After taking a 13-0 halftime lead they never relinquished it, scoring twice in both of the final quarters. Bolton's lone tally came on a 60 yard pass play from Dinnat to Hazleton, with Michiels adding the conversion. Rabb sparkplugged the Bulldog eleven scoring four times. Bolton was sparked of- fensively by Dinnat, Woods, and Hazleton. The defensive backbone consisted of Haw- thorne, Hazleton, LeBlue, and Luno. Edwards, Dinnat, and LaCour stop Bulldog attack. BOLTON vs. FAIR PARK ln the 1955 home season opener Bol- ton's Bears met the third ranked Fair Park Indians. ln a game in which Fair Park was favored by sportswriters 34-O, Bolton's out- classed and by far outweighed eleven bounced back with wonderful spirit and determination, which has been displayed by many Bolton teams in the past, to be defeated by only one touchdown, the final score being 21-12. There weren't iust one or two outstanding players for the Bears, but there were eleven men doing an out- standing iob. All spectators who watched the game agreed that although the Bruins did not come out on top, they played their hearts out all the way. vmmmwrmnimmursiwm--WMMiirwwmtnm-wwuqii..f--maimwm. . ..-.f. 1 ,... ..-www,ss,w.1..v.s.Nv,s..s,M.if 'wir fyiwsis -1 it U. mama., N . -fs...m...'f ff if., ff f A 1. .s swag sam.,- Bruin invaders p Fair Park Indian 1 end sweep Dinnat tight ropes way down the sidel for a 35 yard gain J.

BOLTON vs. LAFAYETTE Though picked as underdogs by some, the Bolton Bears posted an easy 30-13 win over the Lafayette Lions for their first dis- trict battle of the season. Trailing the Lions 13-6 at the end of the first quarter, the Bears took a halftime lead of 18-13 and were not scored upon again. The Bruins scored almost at will in the sec- ond and third periods and cleared their bench in the final stanza. Sumner was the offensive gun for the Blue and Whites with two touchdowns, while Dinnat, Lee, and Barmore had one apiece. Recognition for line play should be given especially to John Hazleton, Ronnie Luno, Wilmer Linclsley, and Albert LeBlue. BOLTON vs. JENNINGS the Bulldogs by an 18-6 count. good. sparked the Bears to the victory. I35 The Bolton Bears defeated the Jennings Bulldogs on home ground for their second district win of the season. A halftime score of 6-6 showed a well fought game for both teams, but as the contest ended the final statistics gave the Bears an edge over An intercepted pass set up the Bears sec ond score when Dinnat tossed to Hazleton for the T.D. Michiels' attempt for the extra point was no good. The final tally came on a sixty yard iaunt by Lester Woods and again the try for the conversion was no The offense and defense were exception ally good as Dinnat, Hazleton, and Michaels Before a Byrd homecoming BOLTON vs. LA GRANGE ln their third intradistrict clash Coach Guy Carroll's eleven bowed to the La Grange Gators by a score of l3-7. The entire game was Gator dominated as they outgained the Bears 10 to l. The Lake Charles boys got off to a 7-O lead by virtue of a 74 yard run by Don Manual and con- version by Tony Hilton. The Bears came back to tie the score on BOLTON vs. BYRD crowd of 7,000 the Bolton Bears were completely outclassed by a powerful Yellowiacket eleven, 47-13. Though Bolton lumped off to an early l3-7 lead, the boys from Byrd then turned on the steam and rolled to a lopsided victory. Our bears had no ex- cuses except that they were beaten by a great ball club. Byrd, the second ranked team in the state, was a solid favorite' over the lightweight Bears and upheld the pre-game predictions all the way except during the first quar- ter when the boys in blue and white showed perhaps more fight than they had shown all season. '36 a 95-yard kickoff run by Bobby Lee, Din- nat converted. After Bolton lost the ball on a fourth down, La Grange took over and marched 80 yards for the final score with two min- utes left in the game. The entire Bruin forward wall contributed to the holding of the Gators at many crucial moments. A host of Bear defenders bring down a Gator at midfield.

BOLTON vs. CATHOLIC HIGH The Bolton Bruins ousted the Catholic High Golden Bears in a non-district battle with a 27-13 upset victory. Taking the opening kickoff, the Bears marchedkto the two yard line where Woods went over for the tally. Daniel split the uprights for the extra point. The Golden Bears came back and scored on a sustained drive of 65 yards with Scer- oler going over from the one. The Baton Rouge boys failed to convert and the Bears enioyed a halftime lead of 7-6. Taking to the air, the Bears came up with two more T.D.'s as Hazleton and Fe- duccia hauled in the passes from Dinnat, with Sumner racing 35 yards for the final score. The game ended with the Bruins on top by a 27-13 count. BOLTON vs. SULPHUR ln a homecoming thriller, the Bolton Bears were outclassed by a powerful Sul- phur Tornado team l8-7. The Bears' lone tally came on a pass from Dinnat to Hazle- ton in the end zone with but one second left to play. The Tors opened thescoring with an il yard T.D. by Martin in the early minutes of the second period. Two more T.D.'s were added to Sulphur's score when Haynes crashed over from the one and two yard lines respectively. Outstanding defensive play should be credited to Ussery and Woods while the offensive stalwart was supported by Dinnat, Feduccia, Sumner, and Hazleton.

The whole story for the boys from the bayous was half- back Alan Semar who scored 36 points. The recovery of a Bolton fumble accounted for the other Iberian tally. On defense the en- tire forward wall and the backs led by Gordie White seemed to contain the Bears. The scoring on the Bolton side of the fence was done by Woods on a three yard jauntg the other T.D.'s were scored by Feduccia. Le- Blue, Woods, Ussery, and Gunter were the mainstays of the Bruin defense. BOLTON vs. LAKE CHARLES The Bolton Bears suffered a bruising de- feat at the hands of the Lake Charles Wild- cats by a 4l-I2 count. The Wildcats lost no time as they scored in the early minutes of the first quarter. An intercepted pass accounted for their second touchdown of the evening. The Bears came back in the closing minutes of the first half when Din- nat passed 54 yards to Hazleton on the three for the score. Lake Charles tallied four times in the second half to run the margin to 34 points. The Bears' spark had not died out, how- ever, as LeBlue picked up a Wildcat fumble on the 27 and went over for the score, adding another T.D. to the Bruin defeat.

BRUIN BASKETEERS The 1955-56 basketball season saw the Bolton Bears bring back five lettermen and three squadsmen in their attempt to win basketball glory for Bolton. Although the team had no ex- ceptionally tall players, it did have several men of above average height. Maunsel Pearce, John Hazleton, Doody Dinnat, Freddie Bosarge, Donald Friday, and Jimmy LaCour formed the defensive and offensive backbone that the Leismen displayed this year. The B team consisted of Burt Howard, Jim Gunter, Jim Newell, Ed Sumner, Bill Beauregard, Ken Phillips, Louis Dinnat, Harold Cleveland, Wayne Hedrick, and Larry Pitts. From these men Coach Leis moulded a top flight hardwood crew and managed to develop a marvelous spirit of team cooperation and deter- mination. As a team, the Bears lost only three of last year's starters. By this the Bears gained experience and showed good chances of taking district and state titles. The prospects for the '57 season will be bright although four of the season's starters will not be on the boards for the Bruin Cagers. Walter Moriarity was the head manager, statistician, and score keeper, he was assisted by McKinley Mason. I43 ' F ' Q . 1 m X 'Y wx W ,, . M...

SEASON SUMMARY FOR '55 :or the second straight season the Bolton Bears were state runners-up. They were led by their ace hurler, Butch Mc- lum, who won seven and lost one in his season's work on the mound. ln his high school career he compiled a very a record, including several no hit and one hit games. The Bears easily won the District Title from the Lafayette Lions wo games. The winning of this title sent them into the bi-district play-off against the West Monroe diamond aces. The ins won over them in two straight games. This led to the Bears' journeying to New Orleans where they dropped I f r on y game o the season to the St. Aloysius Crusaders. This was the real game, for by a score of 9-O the Crusaders 4 the State Title. Jutstanding performers for the Bears throughout the season were Bill Poe, J. T. Rougeou, and Doody Dinnat out- iers, Lamar Walters, Dade Foote, Freddie Ussery, Brian Jones, and Eddie Lofton, infielders, McCollum, Jim Newell, sty Fowler, and Tommy Henry, pitchers. From this group Coach Raymond Schmolke built a great team and devel- d . . sportsmanship among its players.

'55 CINDER SUMMARY The '55 track season was not what one might call a blazing success for the Bears but the '56 season shows brighter prospects for the Team's ace miler, Dave Michiels, and their ace iavelin thrower and high iumper, Jim LaCour will be back to compete for honors at the meets in which the Bruin thinclads choose to compete. With these two as standouts the Bears can also expect good performances from sprinters Roy Barmore, J. V. Feduccia, Bobby Lee, and Rodney Brister. Frank Fletcher will more than likely turn in some fine broad-jumps, therefore, by the end of the season we should have a fine track record and at least send several men to the State Meet which will be some time late in April. BRUIN GOLFERS BREAK EVEN Last year's golf season was a reasonably suc- cessful one in the light of past years. With a record of approximately fifty-fifty wins and losses, the team was aided greatly by seniors Jimmy Bradford, Walter Fowler, and Rick Wil- kins. Most of the matches were dual meets, however, the Bruins went to two tournaments. In its own sponsored tournament the Bruins failed to place. In the 1956 season, with veterans Douglas Farr and Frank Fletcher, plus newcomers Bobby Jameson, Charles Kahn, Errol Barron, and Buck Sadler, the team will schedule more tourna- ments. When small meets are held, they will be on a triangular basis with three schools par- ticipating. Coach Hans Leis predicts a promising year for the Bolton golfers. s exercls Upper left: Table tennis is expertly exhibited by this gym student.

K- -2.521 M2212 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, exemplifying democracy in action, seeks Through many Worth-vvhile proi- ects to encourage participation in all school ac- tivities and to establish better understanding between student and faculty. Bolton has one of the leading Councils in the state, and its mem- bers attend the state convention, southern con- vention, and various workshops. The new ideas and information they bring back prove invalu- able to the Council. Handling all school elections and sponsoring the Homecoming Dance and the Senior Prom are regular duties of the Student Council. Representatives are elected, one from each homeroom, and the officers are selected by vote of the entire student body. Bolton's Student Council is a member of the Louisiana, Southern, and National Associations of Student Councils. Sending Bolton's greetings at Christmas to other state high schools is one of the Student Council's gestures to promote friendship. tg-pts..

BRUIN EDITORIAL STAFF Cropping and identifying thousands of pic- tures, drawing hundreds of lay-outs, doing countless write-ups, checking copy, and typing, busy BRUIN editors and assistants work at top speed to meet deadlines. Even before school starts the editors plan the theme and begin putting their ideas into action. Encountering endless problems and laden with responsibilities, they strive to carry out this theme from cover to cover. Using pictures and editorials, they endeavor to mingle pre- cious moments and memorable events and to edit an award winning yearbook. Although the editing of the yearbook is a tremendous task, every second of work has its reward. When BRUIN workers breathlessly view the finished product and hear the stu- dents' ioyous cries of UBRLJINS are here, they can truly be proud of the part they played in recording the story of the year. .

With a big bang the yearbook sale, one of their most im- portant operations, is ushered in by a gala costume dance. Haunting downtown business firms to sell plen- ty of ads and advertising space for the BRUIN, in- dustrious Business staffers really know what hard work is. Ironing out many wrinkles and curing many a head- ache in the production of BRUIN, the Business Staff works shoulder to shoulder with the Editorial Staff. Together the two groups carefully and expertly plan the budget and work diligently to produce the best book possible. Arranging for photographers, assisting them in taking class and club pictures, and conducting the BRUIN sales campaign keep this staff on its toes from September to May. And that's not all, only when the BRUINS are delivered swiftly and safely into the hands of eager Boltonites is their work completed.

Besides, the eager beav- er workers perform countless other duties connected with the business side of pub- lishing a school paper. Selling ads is only part of the iob, for they keep financial ac- counts, send out bills to the subscribers, count and distribute the papers as they roll off the press, and collect money from all the homerooms. Clever skits presented on assembly programs boost sales, as they arouse interest in Cumtux.

PRESS CLUB Central Louisiana's citizens reap the benefits of the Press Club, as this organization endeavors to keep them well informed of the latest events and activities at Bolton. The club is composedfof students in the upper classes vvho have a natur- al ability and enthusiasm for iournalistic writing. Each day a member is assigned to collect and to vvrite the latest news. The responsibility of writing the Bolton High Notes that appear in the Alexandria Daily Town Talk affords excellent training to those interested in developing their talents in this field. QUILL AND SCROLL Superior work in the fields of iournalism, edit- ing, and business management qualifies workers on the school paper and yearbook staffs for membership in Ouill and Scroll. Before becom- ing a full fledged member a sample of each pros- pect's writing is sent to the National Quill and Scroll board for approval. Every year Bolton's members enter a iour- nalisnn contest. Thus they have an opportunity to put their writing skill to a real test, to gain in- valuable experience, and to learn by doing. i i :Ago 'Mm-B..

LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE A wealth of valuable experience awaits one who is selected to attend Leadership Conference, held each year on the L.S.U. campus. Juniors who excel in leadership, scholarship, and character and who can benefit from classes in speech, journalism, rec- reation, or library science are chosen from high schools all over the state. Hard work combined with well-planned social activities comprises the busy schedule. At the big talent show climaxing the session everyone stands to sing the Leadership Song, each sad to be leaving his new friends and the good times. However, all return home with treasures of pleasant memories to cherish always and with heads full of knowledge and new ideas to carry back to their school. PELICAN STATE Among the top honors at Bolton is the privilege of attending Pelican State, held each summer on the campus of Louisiana State University. The ob- iective of Pelican State is to educate high school seniors in the rights, duties, and responsibilities of American citizenship. A mythical 49th state is developed with the constitution and statutes of Louisiana serving as the pattern. The delegates actually carry out the functions of government and are thus taught to honor and to revere greater their democratic way of life. Each student attending Pelican State returns a better person, for in him is a new awareness of the magnificence and seriousness of something he once took for granted-his American citizenship. at X ??ff7'.:W' N Vi W N ' f lyv ,J 'Af f FN as L ,- W ,leg ,,H3li QW. r 1 gg nt W4 'S gg W 3 ft Y v H M,f,,.,t.t,1 I tfttgarz- wt W4 3: fftwff tt we ,L s ' .L it -I I E f- t - ig ' I , . NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY One of the highest honors which can be bestowed upon a student of Bolton High School is membership in the Beta Tau Sigma Chapter ot the National Honor Society. This organization strives to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimu- late a desire to render service both to the school and the community, to promote leadership, and to encourage the devel- opment of character. These qualities are used by a special faculty council as a basis for selecting outstanding iuniors and seniors for mem- bership. The new members are initiated at an annual candlelight ceremony which publicly acknowledges their achievement.

The high ideals of this fine organization are 'eflected in the basic aim-to build better leaders, scholars, and citizens. Selling Bolton license tags for cars and ushering at the home football games are two of the many activities affording service to the school. The highlight of the year comes when the Key Club Sweetheart is presented at the annual Valentine Dance, one of the antici- pated events on the Bolton agenda. The Key Club is sponsored by the Alexandria Kiwanis Club as a iunior division of Kiwanis ln- ternational. Outstanding members attend the Key Club District and International Conventions. ALLIED YOUTH Founded to encourage and to promote the fight against alcohol, the Allied Youth is only one of the many such clubs all over the nation. Teenagers, conscious of the damaging effects of alcoholism and concerned with halting its spread, find in the Allied Youth an opportunity to take their stand. In the meetings discussions- enable each student to state his opinions, and an ex- change of viewpoints helps unite the group in its main objective. Conventions held annually in Fort Worth, Tex- as, and in Buckeye, Pennsylvania, give delegates a better understanding of their crusades and further unite them under one banner.

Then followed six short periods during which teach- ers and parents became acquainted, reached a bet- ter understanding of mutual problems, and obtained a clearer picture ot a normal school day at Bolton. After hurrying to the numerous class rooms, get- ting lost in our great halls, and participating in the bustling activities that are a vital part ot our school, our respective parents realized that the educational system ot today is constantly progressing. Perhaps the most welcomed sight to the parents after their hard school day was the sight of the refreshments in our cafeteria.

Q Refreshments are served by Mrs l.aCour to Mr Pate and Mrs. Parker, sponsor of Quill and Scroll. Newly elected members of Quill and Scroll were formally initiated in an impressive candle- light ceremony. The old members expressed to the new, the importance of the ideals of Quill and Scroll, Loyalty, Enlightenment, Opportunity, Initiative, Leadership, Friendship and Truth. Then combining all candles symbolically with Truth, the new members lighted their candles signify- ing the oath of loyalty they were about to take. A highlight of the program was a talk given by Miss Mary L. Thornton, Qleftj who is the founder of Bolton's Quill and Scroll Chapter and whose name this chapter bears. When the ceremony was completed, delicious refreshments were served to all members and their guests. 244 mpressive candlelight initiation Ann Bradford lights her candle from the combined flame of the initiators. 'hc Ann Barron lights the cane dle of enlightenment as others who assisted with the initiation listen atten- tively. it iit tt boifon's full of variety - from finger-printing to newcomers party, to having bruin pictures made ,E Officers of our Student Council, Peggy O'Neal and Judith Babirwgton di- ' rect a game at a party for Bolton's newcomers. It is sponsored by the Student Council each year. Through games, new students become better acquainted with each other. Not to track down crim- inals, but as a part of Civil Defense work, Dep- uties from the Sheriffs department fingerprint every Bolton student. Making this senior boy, Jimmy Neilson, pose just so, is a hard iob for the very efficient photographer, Bones Bardwell. 247 -fA SHg' Our very talented senior boy, Henry Oden, entertains often on Bolton assemblies. Singing 3 5 is iust one of Henry's many talents. Some of our more intelligent senior boys show their wisdom by dressing the part. Miss Cambre is quite proud of these modern day American History students. Our famed Booster Chorus appears on the annual Christmas production given by the music department. -1 ,x alma mater We stand and pledge our loyalty to you, All of our best, we gladly give to you, Fair will we keep thy fine, unblemished name, Bolton, go forth . . . win honor and win fame!
