Advertising Manager Dedication When the last bell ring to closc this semester, when the last sheet of papcr has fallen to the ground, when the last footstep sounda in the dusty liall. our building will be quiet. Its soul will be gone; only the skeleton will remain; a skcle- ton that will come alive again in three short months. This is just like the end of any school year. Yet, it is different; for as the 1959 1960 school year comes to an end, it brings with it the termination of another Golden Era in the history of Byrd. Something that has been a part of Byrd since its beginning, something very real, but intan- gible, will leave Byrd. Few will real- ize it, few will miss the completeness of Byrd. Although our student tiody will be small- er next year than it has been in some time, we are being rewarded a hundred timos over in the reali- zation that a part of that spi’rit and determination that has moulded the lives of the students who have come in contact with it through the years will go with these students who are leaving our City. l)ur- ing the past era many people, large and small, studious and athletic, have walked through the doors of Byrd to take their place in life. These ycars saw many important events and honors bestowed on Byrd, its pupils, and faculty. The prestige, the memories of liappy times, the spirit and en- thusiasm of Byrd will live forever. The memory of Byrd ' s mighty era will remain with us always as the future comes forward to greet us. However, with the conclusion of one era, there comes the dawn of a new onc. And so it is with Byrd; a new giant takes its place beside Byrd to grow, to prosper, and to be loved. Construction of a third public high school will aid in the progress of our City of Shreveport, and it will also aid our Gty of Byrd as she gets some of her huge everyday burden removed. But as the people removed from Byrd take their place in a new school, they will also take with them a part of Byrd that will never die. These pages will hold forever the memories of these cherished years we shared together. As this stage of our growth comes to an end, we pause to salute it and all that has come with it. We, the GUSHEH staff, do deem it a great privilege to dedicate this book to the end of a glorious era and to the beginning of a challenging era. Through the years Byrd High School has existed be- cause Shreveport has existed. Shreveport exists because of the industries which thrive around it and operate out of it and because of the wealth of the land on which it is built. This year we have sought to honor these in- dustries and the land by using pictures of various ones on the division pages, making this the theme of our book. Only by the realization that the rich land, with its products, around Shreveport make our city what it is can we see how much this background of Shreveporl supports and strengthens all our efforts. Every year Byrd graduates enter into the industries around Shreve- port and make them grow with our city. Here they are —the strength of the land—oil, agriculture, lumber- ing; the strength of the people—the military reserves, the air bridges of the sky; the beauty of the land—quiet lakes and flowing rivers; the heart of the people—play- ing fields for recreation and the new civic center.

And with its start a great period was ended in Byrd’s history — the period when freshmen attended our school. The fresh- men were missed for a short time, hut tlieir places were taken hy a tremendous sophomore class. A record 2225 attended Byrd for the 1959-60 term. Starting at the first of the summer, many of these students worked hard to make tliis year the hest yet. Conferences . . . workshops . . . summer school . . . football, hand, pep squad practice . . . issuing ROIC uniforms . . . student council work — these are examples of some of the pre- school activities that the citizens of Byrd partici- pated in. As the date of Septemher 9 approached, activities increased in numher and frenzy and centered closer and closer to the City of Byrd. Then on that day the huhble of suminer hurst, and the Heart ol Byrd hegan to heat, and the work, fun, and fellowship of the school year hegan in earnest. 6 1959 At left: These students are trying to crowd into the office on the first day of school to have scheduie mistakes corrected.

FALL Gusher slaff seniors pul on a liilarious skit in assemhly to ac tion for the staff. ivertise applica- the Temperature Dro] ps | As tlie year moved into full swing, the citizens of Byrd inet with the realization that summer was actually over, and they had to really get down to work. Classes hecame almost drudgery, until the weekend at last arrived, hringing with it the ex- citement of a football game and the carefree at- mosphere created by two whole days of leisure. We thought the cold weather would never get here, but it arrived in full force the night of the Ouachita football game to thorougldy chill every- one there. From then on the wardrohe of sununer disappeared and winter sweaters, jackets and coats came into the picture. About this time the circle pin made its appearance and this fad became the love of the girls, while the boys reaffirmed their loyalty to the ivy league tradition. The ROTC put on their “O.D.’s.” and the parking lot got a fresh coat of paint to he in keeping with the first touch of winter . . . the frenzy of the first six weeks was capped by the first report card . . . homecoming came and went and then we eagerly began to look forward to the Thanksgiving holidays and the tra- ditional Fair Park game. During the fall, many aeniors were counseled on college choices. Uere Miss Davidson gives advice to Walter Cailleteau. Ronnie Gardner, state winner in Livestock judging, is grooming a steer during the Louisiana State Fair. The Victory on Thanksgiving Day Ended Shirley Coward, Gretchen O Steen, Joyce Hamrick, Marie Sto ddard and Sandra DeArmand, HOTC sponsors, draw their uniforms and brass from Miss Malone. 10 On Thanksgiving Day, our cross-town rivals, the Fair Park Indians, were beaten decisively by a 19-0 count. Here Alton Thomas picks up ten vards on a “counter” play. a Wonderful Fall As the last leaves fell from the trees, we left hehind a fahulous fall and moved into the whirl of winter. But we could look hack on the many good times we had this fall and rememher things we would cherish for- ever. The sophomores had finally learned their way around and felt as if thev were a part of the school. while the seniors realized that this was their last autunm in the City of Byrd. There were some high points in this wonderful fall. Surely the seniors and juniors will re- memher the start of their research themes . . . the band worked furiously to complete the fund for the Rose Bowl trip . . . the moon always seemed just right for a levee party . . . the first hig dance of the year was held at the American Legion Club—Cookie and the Cup- cakes played . . . the ROTC held their annual spaghetti supper . . . the Jackets stomped Fair Park 19-0 in the traditional Thanksgiving Day game. Suddenly the win- ter wind reminded us that the haskethall season had started and Christmas was almost here. Another page had heen written in the ever-widening history of Byrd. Iva Nell Hilburn and Azelea Baird constructed the new “Jack the Jacket which they presented to the student body on “Go West” day. II David Stone, Betty Henderson, Brenda Johnson, Inez Lamb, Tobin Grigsby, and Don Brewer begin gathering information for their research themes on British authors. r These students held a mock governor’s election in their American History class. The results are on the board. Christmas and 1 Mid-Term Tests Cl limaxed 1 a WINTER World History projects were due in January. Paul Duncan, Shiela Hyde, Tommy Clancey and Janet Mount dis play their work to their class. ontlerful Semester As the cold North wind ushered in the winter scene, our thoughts turned to basketball, Christmas holidays, and research papers. The “big team” started off the season with a bang, winning 13 of their first 16 games as well as their own tournament. About the middle of December the long awaited Christmas holidays arrived to the joy of all. Everybody came back to school with an attitude of determination to pass the mid-term tests and try to forget the five hard months of uninterrupted work left. The Red Cross Student Directory finally came out, and our band got back from a fabulous trip to the Rose Bowl. January brought the military ball with permanent officer appointments and a corresponding victory for our sponsors over the Fair Park lasses, as well as the state governor election where Jimmy Davis emerged victorious. “Beargrass” Williams outmaneuvers a North Caddo defender to attempt a shot in the first game of the Fair Park toumey. Williams paced the Jackets to a decisive victory. To raise money for the Junior Prom, the Junior class held a cake sale. Terre Lee, Elaine Cantrell, Bonnie Clark, and Patsy Hagood have just made a sale. 13 The ROTC officers proudly review the Corps of Cadets during a Tuesday morning parade. Teddy Boddie attempts a jump shot in a conference game against Fair Park from which the Jackets emerged victorious. Byrd beat the Tribe fivesome four straight times this season. Bill Blackman and Broocks Greer prepare to show that the graph of the function on the board is a parabola. Though the weather outside during the months of January and February was bleak and cold, the activity and enthusiasm inside the City of Byrd was tremendous. The seniors began thinking of graduation and the corresponding social events. Then came the big day when they ordered graduation invitations and soon after that were mea- sured for caps and gowns. The basketball team wrapped up an excellent season, and baseball. aiong with the other spring sports, started.

City This Year The victory climaxed a very successful Basketball Day. Many colleges require College Entrance Examinations. These students take the College Boards in the library on a Saturday morning. 15 SPRING Enthusiastic students enjoy autographing their friends books at the annual Gusher sign ing party held in the gym after school on the day the GUSHERS are distributed. Commencement exercises for graduating seniors are held at the municipal auditorium and climax Senior Week. These graduates listen intently to sound advice that will help them in the future before receiving their diplomas. The Enci of School VVith the return of green grass, blue skies, and halmy weather, our hearts turned to the great outdoors; but our desire to en- joy Nature had to wait for weekends and holidays, for the most important weeks of school were coming up. The inost pressing things were the coming final exams and pro- jects and research papers that were due. The various elections—pep squad, cheerleader. Student Council, Red Cross, Pelican State —added eolor and enthusiasm to spring. The spring sports were in full swing—hase- hall games, track meets, golf meets, football spring training. Many social events high- lighted the closing of school—the Junior Prom. senior parties, and the excitement of graduation. itli the closing of school Bvrd sliidenls spread in all directions—jobs. summer scliool. vacations. and just plain loafing.

Aceelerated Classes Provide Providing the opportunity for gifted students to delve deeper into their subjects, cover more material, and re- ceive a wider variety of information through field trips and lectures is the purpose of our accelerated classes. For the second consecutive year, Byrd is participating in a nationwide program for “rapid-learners.” These classes are offered to students of all classifications in American History, biology, chemistry, English, math, and physics. Results of tests and previous grad e averages are the bases for selection of students for the enriched program. Pupils may not take more than two accelerated courses per year, and those who qualify have the choice of participating or declining. Miss Lurline Allison teaches the American History class, which studies in several textbooks and does exten- sive research. The biology students, under Mr. Leonard Conover, study their subject more intensively and com- pletely than do the regular classes. Major Cyrus Lar- moyeux instructs the enriched chemistry class, which includes deeper subject matter and more experiments. Sophomore, junior, and senior English courses devote much of their time to studying and analyzing literature as well as learning the finer points of grammar. The teachers are Mrs. Nancy Lonnegan, Sophomores. Mrs. Bettie Davis. Juniors, and Mrs. Sadie Yarbrough. Seniors. Three different math courses are offered this vear. Plane Geometry, taught by Mrs. Lucille McClendon, covers more material and includes an introduction to Solid Geometry; Advanced Algebra, taught by Miss Neva Norsworthy. includes an introduction to trigonometry, as well as the regular material; Math IV, taught by Mrs. Zelda Gardner. includes trigonometry. solid geome- try, and an elementary course in calculus and analyti- cal geometrv. In physics. which Mr. Sam Davis teaches. the students’ course is enriched by lectures from physi cists and deeper penetration into the subject. Through participation in this accelerated program. stu- dents have the opportunity to increase and enrich their educations. and thus better prepare themselves for the future. Plane Geometry students draw figures at the board and study drawings and pictures on the bulletin board which illustrate the practical application of plane geometry in everyday life. John Wilson demonstrates to his physics class the fact that light rays have mass. Leaming to dissect is an important part of Biology.

Greer Lawson, Dorothy White- hurst, and Sharon Moore are showing their class the posters they made on famous early Americans. In the accelerated sophomore English class the students studied the works of George Eliot. They read Silas Marner and Adam Bede , and then wrote a theme analyzing the two novels. 21 Councilmen of Mr. J. H.

Right: In second year Latin Caesar’s Gallic Wars are studied. Carolyn Mathews points out Helvetii, where the famous Helvetians lived, to Steve Yancey, Linda Wardell, and Sherry Colb. Reciting je parle, tu parle, il parle . . . are familiar to all first year French students in leaming grammar. Conjugating verbs at the board is one of the best drills to leam verb forms. Citizens of the city of Byrd may benefit from three years of French and Spanish, enabling him to communicate with the citizens of the world. Besides learning the funda- mentals of a language, a stu- dent may join clubs for each department which create in- terest in the mores and customs of the land. The clubs are di- vided according to the different level reached. Every other week these clubs meet and have some form of entertainment such as skits, movies, and g u e s t speakers. Each department in the spring gives a banquet to climax the year’s work for the cosmopolitan of the future. Ready to answer the review questions at the end of a lesson are these eager French students. They know that before the end of the period they might have a dictee.

Hoine Economics Teaches Practical Skills Learning good grooming habits, discovering the essen- tials of being a good hostess and having a well rounded personality, and stressing the importance o f a neat ap- pearance are all a part of the home economics course. The main objective of this department is producing skills that are put into practice in later life. Each year a style show is held in which the girls model the dresses which they have made. Of course, cooking and learning recipes for tasty dishes are part of the usefulness of this course. Byrd offers the perfect place for girls to learn to be good homemakers. So, in rooms 310, 311, 214, and 211 the first links of the chain of a better life for all Shreveport are forged; the girls, who have learned new skills and techniques of homemaking, have collected a file of re- cipes for tantalizing dishes old and new, have acquired improved taste in decoration and furnishing, will leave the city of Byrd to create comfortable and orderly homes in the city of Shreveport for themselves, their children, and their children’s children. Learning the skills of sewing is one of the phases of home Whipping up tasty dishes, cookies, and cakes is a useful skill to leam and an economics. The outfits will be modeled later in a style enjoyable one. show. VIRGINIA T. KtNC Havinit praduated from La.

Mathematics is a wonderland of questions, numbers, and answers tangled in a maze. The teacher is the guide through this amazing world, but often the stu- dent goes on excursions of his own. Eight courses in math are taught at Byrd, two years of these being required for graduation. Three or four years prepare our graduates for college work in prep- aration for careers in engineering, teaching, architec- ture, etc. Some of these are plane geometry, a study of squares, circles and other figures and solid geome- try, a study of figures with three dimensions. Busi- ness math is a course in which advanced arithmetic is REPPY RHODES This algebra I teacher is n graduate of Northwestern Statc and the Univeraity of Texas where she received her B.A. and M.E. degrees respectively.

Kenny Gibson and Tom Lemly are leaming to sketch different types of the parabola. This is a part of the study of quadratic functions in second year algebra. 38 Measurement, and Evaluation applied to business. Advanced algebra is a study of logarithms and quadratic equations, and, finally, trigo- nometry, which will probably end a student’s study of high school math, brings algebra, geometry, and arithmetic into use. Byrd’s fourteen mathematics instructors are proud of records made by its “math” majors. Many of those% starting out in their first struggle of algebra will go on to find the field of higher mathematics fascinating and rewarding, not only in their professions but also in the solutions of daily problems.

Miss Richmond graduatcd from Northwestern State College with a B.S. degree. Techniques of Discovery Since an entire new age began, the age of space, there has been a growing need for and importance placed on science. Even as it began, young students everywhere turned their eyes to the most promising of new professions, nuclear physics. Four sciences are taught at Byrd. General science, which is a study of elementary principles of science, is offered to sophomores and juniors. Biology, the science taken by almost all Byrd graduates as one of their required sciences, is the study of plant and animal life. In chemistry one studies the nature and composition of matter and of their Growing chickens is an example of some of the projects done for the final semester in biology. Those that show extra good work are entered in the science fair. relation to one another. Laboratories are provided where students observe laws at work and carefully collect facts to be used as the basis for accurate deductions. The most advanced science course offered at Byrd is physics, a study of changes in matter and energy that happen without changing their form. Only the best of students will make their way through preparation for the profession of nu- clear physics and others requiring his specialized knowl- edge, but when they’ve accomplished their goal, the re- wards will be limitless. Microscopic study of such things as leaves, insects, and blood help in answering questions that arise in biology. 43 BERNICE PHIPPS Teaching American History in room 119.

She holds a B.A. from Centenarv College and a Master of Arts de- gree, Peabody College. One of the largest departments of Byrd, the Social Science section, offers four courses, two of these being required for graduation. Civics and American History are both very important and necessary for each student. World history, although not required, may be an en- joyable study for those interested in the ancient history of our world. World geography deals with international problems as well as geographical places. Through these courses students gain appreciation of our past history and increase their interest of our present and future history. One also learns of the human endeavor through the ages to imprint man upon the universe. Social sciences are a benefit in any vocation and aid in making us better citizens of tomorrow. Social Science Broadens Our Part of the year’s work in world history is making a project portraying something studied. Marian Donovan is holding two mummy cases in which the ancient Egyp- tians were buried. Mimi Couch holds a replica of a guillotine once used for be- heading people. Sharon Kennedy, Judy Givens, and Catherine Smith have been admiring some of the various posters made depicting places and people in history. Besides the credit they eam, posters serve as a teaching aid to others. 44 Polly Outlaw adds to her report in American History by showing the class a poster depicting the struggle over extension of slavery. Debating and having panel discussions on questions and subjects is only another part of American History. Participating in one of these are Joyce Hamrick, Lewell Ricord, Kathy Beazley, Dennis Beckman, and Regina Hadley. Understanding of World Affairs Reading the history of our nation in different textbooks helps in understanding our own text. Those taking advantage of this are Stanley Feldman, Nathan Brener, Bob Noble, and Paul Goodwin.

From 8:00 until 11:00 every day, a number of Byrd students have the advantage of going to the Shreveport Trade School and attending Byrd in the afternoon. At the trade school the boys are taught the fundamentals of various trades, and in Byrd they pur- sue the subjects required for gradua- tion. At the end of a four year per- iod they are graduated from the trade school and from Byrd, ready to begin their chosen profession. The trade school offers such courses as auto re- pair, body and fender work, welding, radio and television repair, and bar- bering. Kenneth Burson puts sealer on a truck door after a leading-in job. Johnny Dumose completes a repair job on a worn distributor. William McGraw washes lead fragments off a repaired door before repainting it.

ONORS In every society there are a few who mark themselves as outstanding . . . They are students so named because of their far above average leadership, scholar- ship, or service . . . To produce, to progress, to advance—these are the ideals sought and the incentives that push them on . . . Always busy accomplishing some- thing to benefit Byrd, these students have won and maintained a high standard . . . It is their desire to uphold this standard . . . Honors exemplify the high- est summit to- ward perfection . . . In school life these honors attempt to mold and strengthen the character of the individual. .. Built upon this character, each student sets an example for others to follow . . . Although this path seems endless and uncon- querable at times, the bridge to suc- cess lies along the road to honor. Recognition Through Hard Work LEADERSHIP [j CHAWCTERf oi; Many exceptional chemistry students find fun in doing a project. Here Susan Franks displays hers. In the National Honor Society assembly, one member speaks on each of the four cardinal principles, before the new members are inducted. At every school there are those students who help to make the school a better place. Through their many hours of hard work, these people bring honor to the school. In return they are hon- ored by the rest of the student body and faculty by their election and selection to various honor organizations and posts. A big ceremony climaxing a hectic cam- paign is the induction of new Student Coun- cil officers.

Candidates are selected from those Juniors maintaining a ‘B” average and Seniors who are in the upper third of their class. Eligibility for membership is based upon the four cardinal principles of Character, Scholar- ship, Leadership, and Service. The National Honor Societv strives to recognize the students who give time and effort to better the school. The members of the National Honor Society have various projects throughout the year. The first duty comes in the spring of their junior year. when they serve at the Baccalaureate and Graduation Exercises. The National Honor Society named Will Rogers as its nominee for a new addition to the National Hall of Fame of Great Americans. The society reminded the school throughout the year of the various scholastic requirements at Byrd. Faculty sponsors of the National Honor Societv are Miss Ber- nice Phipps and Miss Virginia Chadick.

Teaches Delegates Fundamentals of Government Last spring twelve girls and eleven boys and their alternates were elected by their Junior class to attend Pelican Girls’ and Boys’ State, held on the L.S.U. campus during the latter part of the summer. Each student, elected on the basis of outstanding character, leadership, scholarship, and cooperation, was spon- sored by a local civic organization and, during the ten days at Pelican State, followed a program planned and supervised by the American Legion. The citizens of the State of Pelican are taught to honor and respect the United States Constitution and the ideals for which it stands. They learn how the state government runs and the duties of the local, par- ish, and state officials. Pelican Staters actually ran for and held these offices, experiencing the problems of the actual government officers. Our representatives came home with many honors. At Boys’ State Byrd High students were elected to five of the eleven state offices, including Governor and Lieutenant Governor. Byrd delegates to Girls State came home with one state office, Secretary of State, as well as the “Outstanding Citizen.” FIRST ROW: Donna Simmons, Mary Martin Wallace, Judy Nicholas.

After retuming home, Martha Neff, Diane Blane, Jimmy Levy, Amy Dowty, and Robert Gillan share their ideas they had gained from their ex periences. Betty Jean Campbell, Lois Wray, Rose Lane Lawhon, Bill Crain, Bucky Ogilvie, and Raymond Burroughs went to the Florida State University School Press Conference, held in Tallahassee. The purpose of the two week conference was to improve high school newspapers and yearbooks. in Scholastic Awards Often overlooked are the scholastic awards for which students work long and hard. The name of Byrd High has been recognized in this area because of the efforts of athletic teams and marching groups. Yet, through the industry of its outstanding scholars, its name is spread throughout the United States. As each student leaves Byrd, the knowledge which, during these years Byrd has imparted to him, is taken away and transplanted into a better future for America. Where will its fame end? No one knows; as long as each person takes with him into life the things he has learned, its glory can never end. Byrd is always proud of its straight 4 A” students. During their four years at Byrd, Rose Mary Hoye and Gordon Allen have maintained this high average. John David Stewart and Jimmy Lemer attended Northwestern Institute in Evanston, Illinois, this summer. Jimmy was the recipient of a key for his outstanding work during the course. Jimmy Maranto attended the summer course offered at Louisiana Polytechnical Institute. Attending Louisiana State University this summer was Gordon Allen. John Wilson, Nancy Walker, Rose Lane Lawhon, John Carpenter, Gordon Allen, Bill Clark, Jimmy Maranto, Joe Pharis, and John Embry were the National Merit Scholarship Finalists. These students rank among the highest in the nation scholastically. “We Shook the Family Tree” Talented drama students were responsible for the successful performance of k ‘We Shook the Family Tree” on November 12 in the Byrd High auditorium. This humorous situ- ation comedy involves a bewildered teenager with more than the usual amount of prob- lems and frustrations, the main one being to find a date for a school prom. When her parents try to help, things become more and more complicated. Due to hard work of the cast and back- stage crew, under the capable direction of Mrs. Alice Richardson, the play was enthusi- astically accepted. After more than a month’s hard work, the cast found portraying the various parts not only enjoyable but also informative. Worried because he has heard his daughter has broken into a house, Mr. Dolson berates sons, Bob and Jimmy, as their friend Ellie May Fortson listens. Those in this scene are Charles Laenger, Judy Walker, Allen Shaffer and Richard Meece. THE CAST: FIRST ROW: Nanine Carney as Sally Dolson, Charles Laenger as Bob Dolson, Dee Ann James as Paige Mason.

Timm Petersen, our exchange student from Bremen, Germany, resides with Dr. and Mrs. Benfield, whose son, Bili, is a senior at Byrd. Bill and Timm enjoy playing ping-pong in the playroom of the Benfield s home. Susan Hilton, to the left, came to Byrd from Aber- deenshire, Scotland. She is showing her collection of stamps to her American sisters, Gail and Suzanne Hanks, with whom she is living. AFS Strives for World Understanding At the American Field Service assembly, Susan Hilton gave a very interesting talk comparing the governments, customs, and relations of Scotiand and the United States. i ii iiiii jm ' i m :m PEA Furthering understanding and good-wili among the peoples of the earth is the purpose of the American Field Service, a private non-profit, educational organization. It carries out this purpose by bringing teen-age students from abroad to study in American high schools and to live with American families for a year. The Shreveport Chapter was reorganized in 1959 and is now jointly sponsored by the Rotary Club of Shreve- port and the Student Body of Byrd High School. Six finalists from Byrd were selected from approxi- mately thirty five who applied for the exchange student program. The selection of these six students was based on their academic record, character, and poise. The AFS Office in New York will select one, or possibly two, of these students who will spend this summer abroad with a European family. The goal of the AFS program has become a reality in the daily life as our exchange students “walk together, talk together,” and hence build for world peace. On “Go West Day” Timm Petersen joined the rest of the school and dressed in westem attire. The six American Field Service finalists from Byrd are Stanley Feldman, Flora Fogel. Susan Franks, John Watson, Carolyn Wilkerson, and Steve Yancev. HIGHLIGHTING THE GROWTH OF THE CITY, the Greater Municipal Airport exemplifies the “spirit of progress” within Shreveport, as these Seniors: Bill Hubbell, Head Cheerleader; Mary Alice Foster, President of the Red Cross: Bob Brown, Governor of Pelican State; Donna Jean Simmons, Co-Editor of the HIGH LIFE; Rose Lane Lawhon, Sec- retary of the Officers and Sponsors’ Club; and Pete Seale, Editor of the GUSHER are examples of the progress of their organizations within the City of Byrd. ENIORS 64 How does it feel to be a Senior? Surely we think our feelings are pecul- iarly original as we take that last walk toward the stage ... Before, we could experiment by trial and error to find our place . . . now, we linger on the flight of life recalling our accomplishments and imperfections . . . We search for the key that in- dicates our choice among occupations, colleges, or the service . . . We, as seniors, won- der if we are adult enough to recognize what the decision is to be .. . Our last and best year, we are the school’s reason for existence ... From this existence we want to truvel the jour- ney alone, but the road frightens us . . . Yonder lies the world before us . . . The prospect of success and the desire to lead a full life beckon us on as we “Look for the Silver Lining.” ENIORS Anticip ate JOHN WILSON President BETSY PAYNE Vice-President Sony: y ou r eoer L)a 7l one J oa er: Rose THotto: Jt matters not iow ony a e tue, 6ut ion .

Sponsor; Officers and Sponsors Club; Yarbrough Yoimg Youngblood Zeidman Mr. and Miss Gusher Mr. and Miss GUSHER, Jimmy Williams and Betty Brandon, were chosen by the GUSHER staff in honor of the many worthwhile contributions they have made to Byrd High throughout their years at the school. Betty has been a member of the Student Council for four years, serving as chairman of the Recreation Committee her senior year. She is a member of the National Honor Society and Drum Corps of pep squad, a prayer group leader, and consul of the Upper Latin Forum. Queen of the Track Court and serving as a delegate to Pelican Girls’ State are among the honors this popular girl has re- ceived. Jimmy has been a mainstay of the athletic department during his years at Byrd. Basketball is his outstanding sport as this senior has earned All-District honors for the last two years. Jimmy also plays first base on the baseball team. A two year letterman in each sport, Jimmy is a member of the Var sity Club. Being elected delegate to Pelican Boys’ State is one of the top honors Jimmy has received. There he was elected to one of the eleven state offices, State Custodian of Voting Machines. The GUSHER staff is proud to have two such outstanding students present the 1960 Senior Favorites. 116 Present the 1960 Senior Favorites In order to proniote a greater and more even distrihution of offices and responsihilities in a school the size of C. E. Byrd, the major-minor system has been adopted. Under this plan, a record is kept of each student. and every office or honor he receives is recorded; he is limited to holding three minor offices or one major and one minor office. A major office is one that a student is elected to and is considered to be very time consuming and to require dedication on the part of the student. A minor office is one that a ■ Cj) ■ T - ' 4 student is elected to. but does not involve as much work and time as a major office. to display his talents in such fields as dueling, acro- batics, and poetry reading. This method of electing Mr. and Miss GUSHER is entirely different. They are elected by the GUSHER staff. The requirements for the persons considered for this honor are these: each student must have at- tended Byrd for at least three years, have contributed woithwhile service to the school each year, and def- initely not be on the GUSHER staff. The following section is the Senior Favorite sec- tion. Tixis section contains only the sixteen seniors who are considered by the Class of 1960 as the best- Hlection o.f the Senior Favorites is cfone the kiiown people. If it were possib ior Class a a special assemEkin the audi- be pictured liere but in a ela tomHt JL.! t. o torium. lis is lmr vorite is considered an bonorary sible.

This assembly, held on February 26, con- other again, there will always be fond memories of “that boy who sat next to me in algebra. 117 60 Senior Favorites ’60 Senior Favorites ’60 Senior Favorites ’60 Senior Favorites SHREVEPORT, “THE PIPELINE CAPITAL,” owes much to the oil industry.

Departmental clubs give their members the opportu- nity to meet leaders in their fields and dis- cuss happenings in their areas . . . Service to others is stressed through the Red Cross and Student Council . . . This gushing flow of activi- ties keeps the school’s heehive buzzing with challenges to individual talent, initiative, and intelligence. Sponsoring the dance after the Homecoming game is the principal activity of the Varsity Club. Before the game in assembly Leonard Morgan and other members of the team give their opinion of our opponents, the Bolton Bears. At Right: A familiar sight at activity periods each week during the first semester are the various clubs having their pictures made for the GUSHER. Here Anne Vetsch and Bill Crain take identifications of one of the clubs. Members of the organizations often exhibit their works at conventions and the like. In this case Bobby Young, a 4-H member has displayed a prize steer at the State Fair which is actually a lively affair. Some of our organizations present entertaining productions to promote a worthy cause. “Colonel Beauregarde,” alias Chat Reed, and “Wong,” Walt Amacker, discuss the next act on the Student Council Talent Show. Our Activities Are a Unique 128 ’ f k j |l 1 ff f f I ' i ' J rAimJ 1 ' mm pp lgp f ' 1 ' m WM Some of our activities have educational programs as does the Gayarre History Club. In their studies of history Kathy Gates, Sara Patterson, Peggy White and Sheri Kal- stone portray their idea of a slave Christmas in the old South. Each fall in order to raise money the pep squad sponsors the “peep show” in which members of the football team masquerade as girls. The shapely beauties shown here are Terry Cadenhead, Eugene Smith, Jim Harper, and Brian Par- The Military Ball is one of the biggest events in a cadet’s year. At the ball the officers learn their ranks and their sponsors pin their brass on them. Jimmy Maranto smiles approvingly as he receives his Lt. Colonel diamonds from Ginger Grady. Several times a year an assembly is held in the gym. Most of the time there were pep rallies which were held to boost spirit before an important game. 129 Combination of Fun and Hard Work The Heart of Byrd Dwells ADRIANA BORRAGINE Italy Through the Foster Parents Plan, sponsored by Miss Irma Robinson, Byrd High School is able to play a small part in helping people in other countries. Each year we have sponsored three orphans. Not only do we send the required amount of money but also food and articles of clothing. We are proud of Eva Malkiewicz, a Polish girl living in Germany whom we no longer sponsor because she has won a scholarship to a government controlled school. After orphans reached the age of eighteen, the Plan feels that its help is more beneficial in other homes. Because of the encouragement and financial help of Byrd students, Shin Jong Ja from Korea, who is now eighteen, can begin making her way in life through her efforts. Adriana lives in an extremely poor village not far from Rome with a brother and sister and her parents, who are in very poor health. “Home” is a one room log cabin. Sweet, gentle, shy, often sad due to environment, with excellent manners, this thirteen year old girl is in the fifth grade. Her abiding dream is to continue her education in a vocational school and become a teacher of dressmaking. Inasmuch as there have already been two cases of cancer in the family, the child needs an abundance of nourishing food and medical care. Kim Hak Soo from Korea is now fourteen years old. Being a normal, healthy boy, he enjoys football, baseball, and other outdoor activities. In school his work is above average. His home has been much improved due to the help of the Plan during the past years. KIM HAK SOO Korea Gethsemane was bom in Goniman, Greece where her father was killed short ly after the family’s evacuation from their native village. Now the three chil- dren and their mother have returned to their home, which is a small house that they own. A good daughter to her mother, she is a tremendous help in the home and in her spare time, Gethsemane likes to read and embroider. She is eleven and a very good student. Gethsemane closes all her letters to her foster parents with, “I kiss your hand and pray with great faith to God to keep you from harm.” GETHSEMANE TOPOUZID Greece Leaving the school to speak during Brotherhood Week are Jimmy Levy, Jimmy Lerner, Judy McClenaghan, Mary Martin Wallace, Bobby Diebner, Pete Seale, Buck Ogilvie, and Ginger Grady. Delivering the message to chapel members is Jimmy Lankford as Walt Amacker and Jimmy Bumett listen attentively. Within Each of Us What is the Heart of Byrd? It isn’t the football games we attend or the bus trips we take. It isn’t even the assemblies, Tuesday activi- ties, or the parties which we share with our friends. No, the Heart of Byrd finds its way deep into the soul of each student where its worth is individually known. Devoted work of prayer group and chapel leaders form the head which is needed to reach out and operate on the school-wide scale. Because of these workers’ time and effort, we are able to increase our faith. Prayer groups began several years ago when a group of students decided to meet once a week for the purpose of growing in Godlikeness. These meetings help to remind us to “take God to school with us.” Discussing problems in Christian fellowship give young people the chance to learn about religious beliefs of others and how they have used their beliefs in daily life. Chapel each Wednesday and Friday moming is attended by many Byrd students. The quiet meditation and devotional help to start off the day in a better frame of mind. During Brotherhood Week, outstanding students from high schools are chosen to speak to junior high students and to civic organizations. In this manner the Heart of Byrd reaches out into the community. Meeting and working together in preparation for Youth Week in- creases the bond of friendship between Fair Park, Byrd, and Bos- sier. This year, March 7-11, Byrd acted as the host school as Shreve- port and Bossier worked together to influence their youth toward a richer life with God. In charge of this year’s chapel program are Jimmy Bumett, Chapel Leader; Carolyn Dunmire, Publicity Chairman; Suzanne Scarbrough, Pianist; and Walt Amacker, Chapel Leader. Closing prayer group meetings with a friendship circle seems to create a singular bond between its members. Youth Week workers from Byrd are Walt Amacker, song leader; Jimmy Burnett, moderator; Chat Reed, speaker. The Core of Byrd Athletics B. Brown B. Crain J. Madison P. Seale Pres. V.-Pres. Sec.-Treas.

Those who come and go in the library dayafter day may never realize the numerous and necessary jobs which are required for it to run as smoothly as it does. Members of the Library Club form a much needed crew. The purpose of this club is to stimulate a reading interest as well as to teach the staff to work more efficiently together. Programs consist of book reviews and discussions on topics of interest. Working with other club members in the library creates a growing desire to become a librarian. Included in the year’s events were a Christmas party held in conjunction with the Audio-Visual Club and a Mother and Daughter Tea held in April. At the close of the school term in June eligible students who have completed their junior year are allowed to go to the Leadership Conference in Baton Rouge. This year the Library Club, which was organized in 1948, has been sponsored by the librarians, Mrs. Hanks and Mrs. Daughtery. These girls willingly serve in the� library.

Student Council, an Active Byrd High School’s Student Council provides an introduction to the principles and practices of a democ- racy and allows the students to have direct participation in the schooPs activities and policies. Organized in the fall of 1940, the Council has steadily grown in its accomplishments and prestige. Composing the Student Council are the following committees: the executive committee, consisting of six officers elected by the whole student body; eleven com- mittee chairmen. appointed by the Student Council President; and eighty-three representatives, chosen from home rooms. Some of the major projects undertaken by the Coun- cil this year have been: a Faculty Luncheon. Leader- ship Day, Youth Week, Go West Day, Basketball Day, and the annual talent show. As a member of the National. Southern, State. and Northwest Louisiana Association of Student Councils, the Byrd group is an active leader among schools. Delegates were sent to the National Convention at Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania, June 21-25, 1959; Louisiana State Workshop at Natchitoches, August 9-13, 1959; National Workshop at Estes Park. Colorado, August 17- 23. 1959; and Southern Convention at Corpus Christi. Texas, October 28-31, 1959.

At the beginning of each fall term new students are shown around the building as a part of orientation. Guide Carolyn Pratt points out the school store to incoming sophomores. Voting machines are used to promote citizenship in the annual Student Council election of officers. Commissioner Bill Benfield gives voting instructions to Gary Holst. Junior Red Cross officers, committee chairmen, and members are kept in a continual. busy whirl of activities all year long. The major project of the year is the publica- tion of the Student Directory. which serves as a ready in- dex to the addresses and telephone numbers of all Byrd students. Filling Red Cross gift boxes, which are sent overseas, and giving baskets to needy families at Thanks- giving and Christmas are other projects included in this service organization’s activities. After school energetic Red Cross members hold a workshop at which favors and decorations for the Veterans Hospital are made. The high- light of the year is the Junior Red Cross Banquet, which is an annual affair. During this year’s school term the Junior Red Cross has been supervised by Miss Mary Ferguson. while Mrs. Margaret Shilub has been in charge of the First Aid Room. Active in the City-wide Association of the Junior Red Cross, Byrd is represented well by Joe Abendroth, who is the President of the city group.

Members Eam Wages Distributive Education strives to prepare high school students for a place in the business world. Spon- sored by Mr. C. A. Self. D. E. is composed of interested students working in some business estab- lishment while in their junior or senior vear of high school. Posi- tions filled by these students are those of office worker, sales peo- ple, clerks of various kinds, and many other equally interesting jobs. D. E. held its state conven- tion here Feb. 5 and 6, during which time, many businessmen were invited to speak to the mem- bers. Some of the many activities of the club include participating in the state and national conven- tion, giving the Faculty and Busi- nessmen’s Coffee, viewing business films, visiting various business es- tablishments, inviting business- men to speak to the students, and attending the annual Employer- Employee Banquet. Going to school the fi rst half of the day and gaining experience plus wages the second half is one advantage of membership in the club.

J Latin Is the OFFICERS Tribune _Steve Yancey Consul _Betty Brandon Scriba _Sandy Phillips Tribune _Donna Young Scriba _ Lee WlldbM Quaestor _Margret Quinn Consul _John Devereaux Upper Latin Forum One of the oldest organizations at Byrd, the Upper Latin Forum, was founded by Miss Hetty Ecker, a former Byrd Latin teacher, in 1925. Its members are second. third, and fourth year Latin students. The plan of officers is copied from the Roman form of government, having two consuls, or presidents; two scribae, secre- taries; a quaestor, treasurer; and two tribunes who act as par- liamentarian and sergeant-at-arms. These officers are elected by popular vote each year. The sponsors, Miss Irma Robinson and Mrs. Ruth Anderson, work together to see that the organization is run properly. Also the Forum is an active chapter of the Junior Classical League, a national organization composed of local classical clubs in senior and junior high schools throughout the state-wide J.C.L. It also sponsored trips to the state conventions held in other Louisiana cities. Each summer the Forum sends delegates to the national convention. Last summer, a Byrd student, John Devereaux, was chosen to be a workshop committee chairman at the conven- tion in Northfield, Minnesota. This was considered a very high honor. Judy Jones, a former treasurer of the Forum, held the office of Vice-President in the state Junior Classical League in 1959. At past conventions many members have received honors and will probably continue to do so in future years. To carry on activities which encourage its members to learn more about the life and customs of the ancient Romans and acquire an interest and appreciation for their civilization, language, litera- ture, and art, is the purpose of the Upper Latin Forum. The Forum has attempted to make its members realize, by following a Roman plan of organization, the great debt of our own culture to that of the classics. rv Iw 11 K. § X ;l k- iJ 1 1 1 mhQ , i I FIRST ROW: Nancy Owen, Carolyn Causey, Jennifer Victory, Pat Richardson, Regina Hadley, Lou Ann Wright, Helen Kremers, Mary Lou Briggs, Linda King, Frances McCarter.

Le Cercle Fran ais, la plus vieille organisation a Byrd High School, fut fondee en 1921. Sous la direction de Mlle. Marie Therese LeBlanc, les re- unions ont lieu le deuxieme et qua- trieme mardi du mois. Ce jour- la les membres portent un drapeau fran ais et parlent fran ais dans les corridors. Les programmes consistent de jeux, de chansons, et de petites pieces amusantes. Le but du cercle est d’aider les eleves a mieux parler et a mieux comprendre la langue fran ais et aussi les coutumes et la culture de la France. L’annee se termine au printemps par un banquet auquel on invite un Frangais de la ville qui fait un discours. While learning the French language, it is often necessary to refer to the map for geographical locations as, on the left, Kathryn Keller, Rose Lane Lawhon, Suzanne Hanks, Susan Goodwin, and Flora Fogel, on the right, first row, J. Bailey Adger, Nancy Bickham, Nancy Daspit, second row, Donna Erickson, Pam Tuuri, and Patsy Malloy are doing. 147 Le Cercle Frangais Studies Browsing through hooks which Le Cercle Frangais has access to and which add to the interest of programs are, first row, Mag- gie Schlubach, Janet Sibley, Madge Wood, Isla Middleton, second row, Charlotte Lowery, Cathey Woltz, Lyn Yarbrough, Allen Shaffer, Marguerete Steen, and Margaret Ogilvie.

The Future Teachers of America devote much of their time learning about the teaching profession, including its opportuni- ties in many areas. F.T.A. members strive to cultivate the qualities essential to a good teacher by participating in pre- vocational activities which are exploratory and developmental. They not only render service to the school but also to the com- munity. Chartered by the National Education Association on March 16, 1948, the F.T.A. is sponsored by Miss Lurline Alison. Students also give special recognition to the Faculty on National Teachers Day and on the birthday of Horace Mann. Each year the club members serve as pages at the Caddo Teachers Workshop. Repre- senting Byrd well at their annual State Convention, Jean Walker served on the Executive Board as representative of the Fourth Conventional District. An all day trip to an elementary school always proves interesting and educational. Everyone enjoys the Christmas Party and the packing of a box for a needy family. To close the year’s activities a supper is given honoring the graduating seniors in the club. Shown above are three of the F.T.A. members, Carolyn Causey, Mary Holden, and Bonnie Clark, who were responsible for office material during the Caddo Parish Teachers Workshop.

Each meeting a costume program connected with some historical event or emphasizing the influence of a country upon the Lnited States is presented to the club members. Through a television appearance, the Gayarre History Club represented Bvrd well. Trips to Natchez, Mississippi, the battlefields at Mans- field, and old Indian villages climax the year’s activities. Becoming acquainted with the state’s historical places and developing interest in civic affairs has helped many history students. Meeting every second and fourth Wednesday, the Gayarre History Club is the oldest and one of the largest at Byrd. All junior and senior American History students having a C average are invited by Mrs. Mattie Gray Brown, sponsor, to join the club. Presenting to the club the origin of familiar Halloween characters are Betty Bounds, Elizabeth Mays, Diane McCov, Karen Caldweil, Sandy Quin, and Sally Dennis.

The 4-H Club Is Progress OFFICERS Lou Johnson- President Lynn Thompson_ Historian Judy Parish - Secretary Mack Teer- Treasurer Ronnie Gardner_ Vice-President Milton McClure_ Reporter Tim Murrell displays his prize possession which is this horse that he has raised from a colt. “To make the best better” is the motto of the 4-H Club. Club members are required to be ten years of age, carry out the minimum project and keep a record of it and to submit a 4-H Club Record Book to parish agents by the end of every club year. Not only at the livestock shows are the members active, but also throughout the year each one participates in many activities. There are executive meetings to attend, livestock meetings, canning work- shop, officer training meetings, Achievement Day, live- stock shows, and others. Chosen as the Outstanding 4-H Senior Club of the year, the Byrd chapter of 4-H has represented us well. We are also very proud of our representatives to the Caddo Parish Executive Council, Carol Lindsey and Mack Teer. Carol is president and Mack is treasurer. Ronnie Gardner and Carol Lindsey won a trip to Club Congress which was held in Chicago. In the Short Course at Baton Rouge, the Girls’ Demon- stration Team, consisting of Carol Lindsey and Lou Johnson, placed third. Ronnie Gardner and Milton Mc- Clure placed fourth in the Boys’ Demonstration Team. Lou Johnson went to the Educational Course in Chicago. Delegate to the State Executive Council was Carol Lind- sey. In the State Fair Lou Johnson won the Champion Fat Lamb and Reserve Champion Fat Lamb division, and Ronnie Gardner won in Beef Showmanship.

Organized in May of 1959, it is an honor service club. Members are chosen from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes and consist of no more than sixty. The objects of the Z club are these: to serve the school and the community, to develop better citizens, to cooperate with the school principal. to prepare and provide the young women in high school with a sense of leadership, and to promote through fellowship better understanding among all peoples of the world. Meetings are held after school the first and third Tuesday of each month in the home room of the faculty sponsor, Mrs. J. B. McGraw. During the Safety Convention held in October, Linda McGaw, Sally Givens, Kathy Adcock, Linda Michwich, Marjorie Kid ' w ell, Theresa Rosse, Carolyn Causey, Patricia Wilson, Sheron Kennedy, Bonnie Clark, Linda Thompson, and Ann Ray, members of the Z Club, served as pages and ushers.

Teachers Appreciate the Visual Aid Cluh Audio-visual materials are administrated as a part of the library and are housed on the second floor of the main building of Byrd High School, op- posite room 208. Record players, sixteen millimeter projectors, combination film strip and slide projectors, sound equipment, globes, a comprehensive collection of maps, and other audio-visual aids are available for the use of students and teachers. Sponsored by Mrs. Tindol, who organized the Visual Aid Club in 1957, these trained student operators have given up their study rooms to take the materials to class rooms for the use of enriching the teaching program. The librarian orders the films and schedules their showing at the request of the teacher. Aside from checking with Mrs. Tindol daily, the club members hold a regular monthly meeting during activity periods. Anyone interested in audio-visual material may join by contacting Mrs. Tindol. Visual Aid officers are Vice-President, Roger Wilson; Secretary, Larry Garrison; and Treas- urer, John Hobby. Not shown is the Presi- dent, Kenneth Gates.

Composed of first, second, and third year Spanish students, the Pan-American Forum is a newly organized club. Monthy meetings are held by the club, and pro- grams are designed to create more interest in and better understanding of the Spanish language and Spanish- speaking peoples of the world. For the Christmas meet- ing, the club met in the Youth Center for a Pihata party. One of the activities of the spring term is the banquet held at E1 Chico. A Spanish atmosphere is created by the serving of Mexican food, and a presentation of a Spanish skit. The club sponsors are Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Knapp. The Pan-American Forum Don Thompson and Bill Rains stage a bull fight for the entertainment at the Spanish party held in the Youth Center.

Students of first year Latin compose the membership of the Lower Latin Fomm. Through various monthly pro- grams they are introduced to such things as Roman life and c ulture, word building and deriviation, and Greek and Roman mythology. Through these, club members extend and enrich their understanding of the Latin language and the people who spoke it. The Lower Latin Forum is affiliated with the National Junior Classical League and so takes part in state and national activities of that organization. A state convention held in March at Fair Park was attended by many Lower Latin Forum members who learned about many phases of the state chapter. The annual spring hanquet of the combined Upper and Lower Latin Forums is always a delightful affair antici- pated by all.

Through the study of Latin from which the majority of Eng- lish words are derived, one can gain a better understanding of our language which will be of use throughout life.

Byrd High School Science Club three years ago was to promote interest in science and to provide a place for the displaying of proj- ects. The organization creates an atmosphere conducive to an alert inquiring mind. The stimulating programs include guest speakers, field trips. and project demonstrations. Often the club membership includes participants in the various science fairs, and past members have distinguished them- selves in our foremost universities. The club shall continue to seek, through fellowship and competition, to understand the nature of our surroundings. Tom Lemly gets help from Dr. Hammar of the U. S.

It was organized in 1927 and since then has been one of the most helpful and important clubs of the school. Not only does this club encourage the membership of debaters, but also of anyone interested in improving his speaking ability. Tuesday nights are reserved by club members for an extracurricular meeting at which practice in all forms of public speaking, debating, and parliamentary procedure is provided.

Service to Gusher %V v Much of the responsibility of the yearbook depends upon the efficiency of Lois Wray, Associate Editor and Pete Seale, Editor. Checking the accounts with the records on file are Alice Richard, Margaret Colon, Anne Vetsch, and Broocks Greer. Annette Maranto, Violet West, Pam Pressley, Margaret Quinn, and Bill Crain are preparing to check the lists of names of students in the class sections with the completed pages so that no person will be omitted; the pages will then be mailed to the publisher. Right: Ginger Grady, Nancy Bickham, Joan Anderson, Susan Strother, Carolyn Ross, and Jimmy Jett distribute GUSHER subscription blanks in the teachers’ boxes. Symbolic of activities, organizations, and honors in the “City of Byrd” is the GUSHER. Our yearbook is the school diary of events for one year—our accomplishments and failures. It’s a long time from September to March, especially when you’re preparing the GUSHER for publication. Compiling the GUSHER requires many hands, talents, and personalities. The editorial staff draws the pages and assembles your yearbook. Selling ads and distributing the finished product is done by the business staff. All art work throughout the book and the cover design is done by the art staff. The editorial staff receives invaluable help 168 Carries Its Own Reward These cheerful members of the GUSHER staff, Bill Peatross, Susan Franks, Susan Bronson, and Buck Ogilvie, are on their way to deliver students pictures after receiving them from the photographer. At last, after many months of hard work, the job is finished. Here Annie Nail, Business Manager and Holly Metcalf, Ad vertisement Manager leave to mail the final copy. from our photographers. The 1959 GUSHER competed with yearbooks from schools of two thousand or more enrollment. In the Col- umbia University Yearbook survey our annual won the rating of Medalist, and from the National Yearbook As- sociation the GUSHER rceeived an “A+”. Both these rat- ings are the highest awards that can be given, and only the superior yearbooks of the nation receive them. It is the sincere hope of the 1960 GUSHER staff that the members of the student body will keep and treasure their GUSHER as a key to pleasant memories of past days.

These People Make It Sponsors of the GUSHER, Miss Harris and Miss Sanders, take a few minutes out of their busy schedule of supervising the yearbook to talk over some unfinished details. Lois Wray, Alice Richard, Comell Cowles, and A1 Chambliss talk with the sophomore applicants for the GUSHER staff at a party given by the staff in early autumn. During thc skit announcing the Senior Favorites, Carolyn Ross, Ginger Grady, and Annette Maranto changed the cards which announced the different acts. 171 Here, Carolyn Wilkerson, Barbara Dean, Tom Lemly, Nancy McFarland, and Dot Whitehurst select pictures for use in the next issue of the paper. “Read all about it” really does typify the HIGH LIFE. Published once every three weeks. our school newspaper does a wonderful job in informing the students of the latest news around campus. It is operated by two main staffs, the Editorial and Business. Composing the Editorial Staff are the Art Staff, journalism classes, and the page editors. Somewhat more complex is the Business Staff, which consists of business, advertising, and cir- culation managers, an exchange editor, and the salesmen of advertising space. These two staffs, working together, have put out a most outstanding paper through the years under the guidance of Miss Betty Lynn Harrel, Planning the pages of the paper is a hard job. Doing make-up work are Paula 1 All A1 T • Shapiro, Bill Clark, Betty Kalil, Merilee Streun, and Stuart Tumer. AiX)llt J-t 1H Old newspapers are used for reference and for finding different ideas. Getting out some of these old papers are Donna Simmons and Betty Jean Campbcll, Co- Editors-in-Chief of the High Life. Editorial Adviser, and Miss Zachary Breazeale, Business Adviser. Also cooperating with these two sponsors is Miss Betty Lawrence, Art Ad- viser. Anxiously awaited by all are two contests sponsored by the High Life. These are the “Friendliest” and “Mr. and Miss Mistletoe” con- tests. The “Mistletoe” election is the only school- wide popuiarity contest held during the year. In 1959 the High Life was judged Louisiana’s best AA-AAA high school newspaper and re- ceived a rating of All-American from the Nation- al Scholastic Press Association. It received the Quill and Scroll International Honor Rating in 1957-58. Julia King, Business Manager; Jean Hollowell, Exchange Editor; and Raymond Burroughs, Business Manager, get ready to sell the new issues to the first period classes. The Byrd High Life This is one of the joumalism classes which constitutes the reporters for the High Life. Here. the other class is busy writing features for the next issue. Here, Stan Dry, member of the Ad Staff, puts up a poster to remind students of the next issue. B e i n g elected the “Friendliest’ boy or girl of your class is a great honor. Seniors who have received this honor are John Wilson, 58; Ken- ny Gibson, ’59; Frances Bain, ’59; Betty Jean Campbell, ’58; Pete Seale, ’57; and Mimi Couch, ’57. Winners in 1960 were Maggie Schlu- bach and Bob Brown. The High Life Wins 174 The election of Mr. and Miss Mistletoe is anxiously await- ed each year. This year’s win- ners, Mimi Couch and John David Stewart, are being con- gratulated by Jo Ann Stewart and Bill Rutledge. Issues of the High Life are sold during the first period. Here, Anne Bell makes a purchase from “newsboy” Buzzy Tallant. Each year staff members talk to the sophomore English classes to encourage the taking of joumalism. Merilee Streun is showing a newspaper during one of her talks. Margaret Little, Dorothy Amold, and Winnie Nail, journalism students, look at a model of the perfect paper. Two Top Ratings in ’59 175 NUMEROUS LAKES IN THE SHREVEPORT AREA are suggestive of fun. adventure, and a deep contentment, all of which are contagious through music. Outstanding seniors in Byrd’s music department are: Helen Kremers, Orchestra soloist; Walt Amacker, President of the Choir; Sylvia Chambless, Assembly pianist; Roger Box, Band Captain; Dennis Beckman, lst Lt. of the Military Band; and Dorothy Patterson. Band Oueen. M 176 Let the air be filled with music! . . . These magic words turn work and time on the part of many indivi- duals into the re- sounding brilliance of music ... Only the musician, however, sees the full relationship . .. He knows the prac- tice, the butterflies that go into making the perform- ance perfection ... Those color- ful half-time shows with precision movements that bring their problems . .. But, these are ironed out and the Band is invited to the Tournament of Roses . . . At Christ- mas the harmonious voices of the Choir fill the auditorium with exalting music . . .

Whatever the show, long hours of practice make it letter-perfect... That’s no small task, but that is music ... Music in its richest tra- dition. The wonderful trip of the band was preceded by excitement, anticipation, and campaigns for raising money. Both the cities of Byrd and Shreveport did a great deal to send the band to Pasadena by supporting the group with such projects as pennies for Pasadena; pancake breakfast; candy, chocolate, peanut, and rum- mage sales; tag day and license plate sale. On tag day Bill Causey and Cynthia Dennis sell a tag to this cheerful customer. Byrd Band Goes --T Jqxsi Mr. Watson, the band director, gives last minute instructions, as the band anxiously awaits the great trip ahead. Excitement is high as the buses pull off the Byrd parking lot on Decem- ber 26, for the twelve day excursion. While stopping at Grand Canyon, southem members of the band, Gary Goodrich and Bill Pampee get their first look at snow. This was certainiy an excited moment for all the band members. Home, Sweet, Home! After the long trip and wonderful experiences, everyone is always glad to see the familiar sights, friends, and relatives. The hand returned home on January 5th. Mayerick, a favorite of Byrd’s Band, pauses for a moment to be pictured with our band. While in Califomia the band had many oppor- tunities to see very interesting and enjoyable sights as they toured Warner Brothers Studios and Disneyland as well as Los Angeles.

Dorothy has been in the “A” Band four years at Byrd, and she plays the string bass. This year she served as secretary of the band. Besides being a member of First Chair of America, she attended All-State-Band at L.S.U. Roger has also been a member of the band for four years, playing the French horn. He has served the band as Band Captain this year. Highlighting his year, he was chosen a member of First Chair of America. GEORGE SHORTER has served as DRUM MAJOR of the Byrd band for one year. While not acting as Drum Major, he plays the baritone. Also, he is Sergeant First Ciass of the ROTC Military Band. As Drum Ma- jor, George has the responsibility of leading the band through their ma- neuvers, and also of keeping the mus- icians under disciplinary control at all times. “B” Band Is Very Enthusiastic Lookin forward to being promoted to the “A” Band are these hard working members of the “B” Band. Through many hours of hard and enthusiastic work come great rewards and self-satisfaction. The same pieces are played by both “A” and “B” Bands. Individual attention of the Choir Director pro- vides the Band with extra help. Because the “B” Band spends their money on music instead of uniforms, they have no special uniforms. The progress of the “B” Band shows outstanding ability among the Band mem- bers. If at any time during the year a member merits the promotion, he may be placed in the “A” Band. It is this competitive spirit that is necessary in creating a good musical group. By ardent interest and earnest work members of the “B” Band can be sure of a place in the “A” Band the following year. From the many pieces of music availa- ble for their use, Bill Rains, Jimmy Patterson, and Ken Thompson are choosing ones they would like to play. Above: The band librarians, Cheryl Pam- pe, Sherry Beede, and Dorothy Patter- son are responsible for seeing that the music is properly stacked and filed. Members of the “B” Band are from left to right Jimmy Patterson, Denny Beck- man, Ken Thompson, Freddy Gaudchaux, James Lupton, Bill Rains, Billy Hamel- back, Dickie Dunn, and David Swearingen. 183 The “A” CHOIR Is a The officers of the “A” Choir are Kenneth Luker, Vice-President; Linda Hope, Secretary; Patricia Wilson, Librarian; Larry Thompson, Sergeant-At-Arms; Nancy Rhodes, Assistant Librarian; Walter Amacker, President; Gina Smoak, Robe Custodian; Stanley Whitlow, Assistant Robe Custodian. “A” Choir is composed of a select group of students who represent the vo- cal music department in concert work.

RAY BURROUGHS—Senior Guard—Letterman II Jackets Open Season Byrd 12 Sulphur 7 In their first game of the season, the highly rated Byrd Yellow Jackets eked out a 12-7 victory over’the underdog Sulphur eleven. Sulphur proved to be surprisingly tough and threw quite a scare into the Jackets in the second half of the game. The Byrdman received the opening kick-off and marched 60 yards downfield for the first counter behind the fine running of halfbacks Tex Williamson and Tommy Gay. Sonny Parnell capped the drive with a 4-yard sneak over right guard. The try for the extra point went wide. In the second quarter the Byrd offense stole the show a gain, although the Tornado proved considerably better defen- sively. Byrd’s second touchdown was racked up in this quarter by Tommy Gay, on a 30-yard off-tackle jaunt. Again the extra point try failed. In the second half Sulphur was the offensive power, driving to a touchdown upon receiving the kick-off. But the Byrd defense, led by Raymond Burroughs, Jimmy Caskey, Jackie Beason, and Bob Brown, tightened up to stalemate the rest of the game and give Byrd the victory. Byrd 6 Minden 13 Capitalizing on two first-half touchdowns, Minden’s Crimson Tide fought off a last half Byrd rally to upset the Jackets 13-6 in the season’s first home game at State Fair Stadium. A crowd of 6,000 watched the small Tide line manage to open holes in the powerful Byrd forward wall at the right moments to let their backs through for smali gains during the first half. Minden poun ced on a Jacket fumble on the Byrd 19, which easily led the way to their first touchdown in the second quarter. Down by their own goal the Byrd defense toughened, but on a crucial fourth down play, the Tide scored from the 5. The second enemy score came on a 40-yard pass play with four minutes left in the half. The conversion was good, and the score stood 13-0 at the half. The second half was all Byrd. The Jackets took the kick-off and marched 60 yards behind the excellent quarterbacking of Bookie Shillcutt, who scored the T.D. on a beautiful bootleg around the left side. The remainder of the game was a passing stalemate. TOMMY GAY—Senior Tex Williamson breaks loose from one tackler while Bob Brown and Vernon David throw Halfback—Letterman II key blocks.

CALVIN HINTON—Senior Center—Letterman II With in Over Sulphur Byrd 7 Baton Rouge 14 Byrd 6 West Monroe 21 Playing on a wet and humid field, Byrd’s Yellow Jackets dropped their second game of the season to the Baton Rouge Bulldogs by a 14-7 count. The Jackets, with four first-string players si3elined because of injuries, played a much better game than the score indicated as they outgained the Bulldogs 216 to 149 yards. The Jacket touchdown came early in the game as Tommy Gay broke through the left side of the line on the sixth play from scrimmage and rolled 57 yards to paydirt. Freddy White kicked the ball squarely through the up- rights to boost the score to 7-0 with seven minutes left in the first quarter. The Jackets kept the ball throughout the rest of the first quarter as the Bulldogs ran only three plays. In the second quarter the tide changed as Baton Roiige scored twice on a drive-capping 6 yard jaunt and a 60 yard punt return with 30 seconds remaining in the half. The second half proved a scoreless defensive battle as the tough Jacket wall, spearheaded by Sammy Hilburn, Jackie Beason, Buck Ogilvie, and Ronnie Conner, held the downstaters to practically nothing. Leading 6-0 going into the fourth quarter, the Byrd Yellow Jackets could not overcome the heat and a tire- less. West Monroe offense as they dropped their third straight game, and first conference game, 21-6. Through- out the first half the Jackets pushed the smaller Rebels all ovef the field. Four times the Byrdmen were in scoring position, but three of those times penalties and missed assignments cost the loss of the ball. Tommy Gay, swivel-hipped Jacket halfback, scored the lone Byrd touchdown on a 20-yard counter play through the left side of the line. Freddy White’s conversion attempt went wide, and the rest of the half was a stalemate. The hometown Rebels came back on the field determined to compensate for their poor first-half showing. Although the third quarter was scoreless, the dogged West MonrOe offense weakened the strong Byrd defensive line. And in the fourth quarter the dam burst as three enemy touch- downs poured across the goal line. It was the first time that the Jacket defense had collapsed and the fourth straight time the Jackets had played only one good half. SONNY PARNELL—Senior Quarterback—Letterman III The Jackets roll to another touchdown. JACKIE BEASON—Senior Fullback—Letterman II Byrd 14 Bossier 0 Tex Williamson tries to break loose from the entire Bossier defensive line. Jackets Roll Past Kats, Byrd 20 Bolton 13 Riding on a three-game losing streak, Byrd’s fired-up Yellow Jackets threw together a stone-wall defense and a clicking offense to defeat the highly favored Bossier Bearkats 14-0 for a much-needed conference victory. The Jackets could do no wrong, as they held the powerful Bearkat offense to 30 yards rushing in the first half and only 143 yards in the whole game. Tommy Gay and Tex Williamson led the Jackets on the ground, while a Sonny Parnell to Ronnie Conner passing combination kept the ’Kat defense honest. Byrd’s first score came late in the first quarter as Jackie Beason, full- back, banged over from the 4, after Williamson had car- ried the ball that far on consecutive long runs. Butch Beach converted to give the Byrdmen a 7-0 half-time lead. The second half was the same story as the stout defense held Bossier to only one sustained drive, and the home offense drove deep into enemy territory repeatedly. The second touchdown came in the third quarter on a 35-yard run by Tommy Gay. Beach again converted. “A tremendous team effort” was responsible for the victory Coach Lee Hedges said after the game. The entire defense sparkled, but the boys that were really tough were bruising line backers Ray Burroughs and Calvin Hinton. Keyed up over their recent victory with Bossier, and also because of the Homecoming activities, a fired-up band of Yellow Jackets stung the Bolton Bears 20-13. The Jackets dominated the first half of play, scoring three touchdowns. Tex Wiliiamson started the attack in the first quarter with a beautiful 67-yard punt return that put the Byrdmen ahead 6-0. Charles Beach converted the extra point, and the score stood at 7-0. Shortly after the start of the second quarter, Jackie Beason bulled over from the three-yard line for the Jacket’s second tally. After the ball exchanged hands, the Byrd offensive machine, led by Tommy Gay, Sonny Parnell, and Williamson, set up Byrd’s third and final touchdown. Beason toted the ball into the end zone from the 1-yard line, and at the half, the score stood at 20-0. However, a determined Bolton crew came back after the half and really made a game out of it. The Bears scored two touchdowns and with the score 20-13 and only 50 seconds left in the game, a Bolton back broke loose and except for a magnificent save would have scored. The Byrd defense held up the remaining moments and pre- served the game. Standouts for the Jackets were Robert Gerst, Jack Bond, and Bill Burns. Outmaneuvering two Bolton defenders, Tommy Gay sets his sights for the goal line. BUCKY OGILVIE—Senior End—Letterman I RONNIE CONNER—Senior The clock shows three seconds remaining in the cold, muddy game with Springhill. End—Letterman I Bears, Tumble to Inclians Byrd 13 Istrouma 26 Byrd 0 Springhill 0 With the prospect of knocking over the number one team in the state, Byrd journeyed to Baton Rouge to play the powerful Istrouma Indians. The first half of play was dominated by Istrouma, and their fine running backs who chalked up two touchdowns. However, the Jackets came back after the half and gave the Indians a real scare. Tex Williamson started it off with a 55-yard touch- down scamper that made the score 19-6. At the start of the fourth quarter, Bill Crain intercepted an Indian pass and the Jackets’ offense started moving. Jackie Beason heaved a 29-yard pass to end Ronnie Conner who carried it to the Istrouma 12-yard line. Then Bookie Shillcut rolled out on a bootleg and, with perfect blocking from the left side of the line reached paydirt. Charles Beach kicked the extra point, and the score stood at 19-13. However, the Jackets received several bad breaks, and with only a few minutes left in the game, Istrouma scored again. The entire Byrd defensive line, consisting of Ronnie Conner, Butch Beach, Raymond Burroughs, Elton Brown, Bill Burns, Bucky Ogilvie, and Calvin Hinton, played a great game. Playing in a steady downpour that had the football field resembling a lake, the Byrd Yellow Jackets and Springhill Lumberjacks battled to a 0-0 tie at State Fair Stadium. The contest was marked by numerous punts with each team losing the pigskin three times. The Ltimber- jacks, a 2-AA power, weren’t able to get their vaunted passing attack started in the ankle-deep water that covered the field. Byrd took the opening kick-off, and on the first play Tommy Gay slithered 24 yards to the Springhill 39. The Jackets lost the ball on a fumble; however, several plays later, Charles Beach recovered a Jack fumble. The Jackets marched to the visitor’s 14-yard line where a fumble stalled the drive. After that both clubs decided on a play-it-safe kicking game, trying to keep the ball away from their own goal. In the third quarter, a desperate drive by the Lumberjacks was stopped on the Byrd 6 when Calvin Hinton scooped up a loose ball. Raymond Bur- roughs also picked up a fumble near midfield for the Yellow Jackets. Byrd repulsed Springhill twice inside its own 10, with the Jacket attack built around Bill Burns, Charles Beach, Ronnie Conner, and Raymond Burroughs. Several Byrd players take a badly needed rest.

JOHN MADISON—Senior End—Letterman II Byrd 0 Jackets Cop City Championship Ouachita 12 Byrd 33 Bastrop 7 Losing 12-0 to the tough Ouachita Lions, the Yellow Jackets saw their hopes for the District 1-AAA champion- ship fade away. If Byrd had won the game, which was played in a cold, stinging wind, the Jackets would have been strong contenders for the district crown. Ouachita scored late in the first quarter after the touchdown was set up by a deflected ball that bounced into one of the Lion’s open arms. Byrd drove inside the Lion’s 20-yard line twice in the second stanza, but failed to score. The first Jacket threat stopped at the 15 after a touchdown pass from Sonny Parnell to end Ronnie Conners was nullified because Conners was out of bounds when he caught the ball. Tex Williamson and Tommy Gay plugged the ball deep into the Lion’s territory, but Ouachita took the ball on downs. Parnell put the spark back in the Jackets with three long runs totaling 43 yards. This drive was halted when a Ouachita defender intercepted a Yel- low Jacket pass. The Lions’ second touchdown was scored late in the fourth quarter from the two-yard line. Calvin Hinton, Jello Brown, Butch Beach, and Alton Thomas were defensive demons for the Jackets. For the first time this year, Byrd displayed their offen- sive power and crushed the Bastrop Rams 33-7 in a District 1-AAA contest. Byrd gained a total of 339 yards as compared with the Rams who were held to a meager 86 yards. The Yellow Jackets completely dominated the first half of play, scoring 20 points, and holding Bastrop to a scant 30 yards. Sonny Parnell scored the first Byrd touch- down midway in the first quarter, and Charles Beach kicked the P.A.T. End Bucky Ogilvie pulled in a 35-yard Parnell pass for the Jackets’ second TD. Before the half ended, the Jackets, behind the running of Tex Williamson and Alton Thomas, drove to the Bastrop four. Thomas cracked over guard for the touchdown, and Beach made the con- version. The Rams scored a quick TD after the half, but Byrd bounced back with Tommy Gay scoring on a ten- yard run. The final Jacket tally was set up by Williamson and Thomas who ground out the yardage. Parnell scored his second TD from the two, and Beach kicked the extra point. Leading defenders for the Jackets were Calvin Hinton, Charles Beach, Brian Parsons, and Ronnie Conner. BOB BROWN—Senior Guard—Letterman II LEONARD MORGAN—Senior Tackle—Letterman II VERNON DAVID—Senior Guard—Letterman I By Crushing Fair Park Byrd 19 With their hopes for winning the District I-AAA Cham- pionship gone, Byrd went all out to defeat their cross- town rival, Fair Park, in the 28th edition of the annual Thanksgiving Day classic. In the most bitterly contested game of the year, Byrd showed its superiority from the opening whistle, only once letting Fair Park get inside its 20-yard stripe. The afternoon was perfect for the game, although there was a slight wind that helped the Jackets stop the vaunted Indian passing game. Byrd took ad- vantage of a fumbled punt to set up their first touchdown late in the first quarter. Sonny Parnell, Jackie Beason, and Tex Williamson worked the ball to the Tribe one, and Parnell carried it over for the TD. In the closing seconds of the first half, Byrd marched to Fair Park’s two-yard line, however, time ran out before the Jackets could get the pliy off. Fair Park 0 The third quarter was mainly a defensive contest as neither team could move the ball. However, Byrd finally got a drive started early in the fourth quarter; Parnell hit Ronnie Conner on the 29-yard line, and he raced into the end zone. Late in the final quartqr, Byrd’s offense again picked up steam and marched to the Fair Park 5. Parnell, who was playing his best game of the season, carried the ball over for the TD. Butch Beach made the conversion, and the final score stood Byrd—19, Fair Park—0. The tough Byrd defensive line was one of the main reasons for the Yellow Jacket’s decisive victory over the Tribe. Byrd walked off the field with possession of the Watchmaker’s Trophy and the City Championship for defeating both Fair Park and Bossier. Fullback Jackie Beason rambles to the one-yard line before ne is stopped by an Indian defender. The tough Byrd line, nicknamed the ‘Tron-Curtain Eight,” was one of the major reasons for Byrd’s success Thanksgiving Day. Butch Beach and Tex Williamson converge on a Fair Park back to make the final stop.

The Byrd Bees completed one of their most successful campaigns in several years by dumping the Fair Park Pa pooses 13-0. Coach Scotty Robertson led his young charges to a perfect sea- son of nine victories and no defeats. The “B” team amassed a total of 227 points and their opponents were only able to score 14 points. One of the most important victories of the season was the 34-7 rout of the Haughton Var- sity which won its district champion- ship.

In compiling a 19-9 mark. the Yellow Jackets downed some of the top teams in the area. Defending state AAA champ De La Salle was toppled early in the season to boost the Stingers’ morale and encourage then to victory. The Jacket cagers barelv missed entering the state playoffs, as they mustered a 64 district slate, which placed them third in the standings. Aside from suffering two setbacks at the hands of Bossier and being upset by Ouachita once again, this was a very successful season. Fair Park was the victim of the Jackets four times. to bring the five-year record to 15-1. The annual basketball banquet was held March 14, at which time the seven lettermen received their awards and Joe Abendroth was named the most valuable player. Teddie Boddie fights for a rebound, as Gordon Gibson applies football tactics. Five Returning Lettermen Byrd basketball began in grand style. The Yellow Jackets unveiled a potent offense which rolled to a 65-50 victory over Texarkana, Texas. The Tigers from Texarkana stayed within 6 points of the Jackets until the final five minutes, when, led by the scoring barrage of Jimmy Williams, Byrd built up a comfortable lead. Williams emerged as the game’s top scorer with 22 points. Meeting with an unexpectedly tough North Caddo team, Byrd again relied on a fourth-quarter surge to register their second win. The Yellow Jackets showed a flawless offense which forced the Rebels into a zone defense to hold the score to 62-49. Jimmy Williams canned 20 points, and Joe Abendroth 16, to lead the scoring. The Byrd roundballers played their best game of the season by trouncing Texarkana by a 72-43 margin. The Yellow Jackets were never headed, and a 24-point output in the second quarter left no question as to who the victor would be. In compiling a 61% team shooting per- centage, Williams and Seale hit 16 points, Gibson 15, and Boddie 12. The Jackets began a South Louisiana Road trip with their first defeat of the year. A red-hot Bolton club clawed the Byrdmen 64-61. The game was very close, but the high percentage Bolton hit from the floor was too much for the Jacket defenders. The Bears led all the way, however, their lead was cut to 1 point in the final quarter. The Byrd offense, led by Joe Abendroth’s 23 points, once again scored over 60 points. A sterling Istrouma defensive team held the Jackets to their low score of the road trip. However, when the buzzer sounded, the Jackets were ahead 44-41. Abendroth again hit 23 to lead the scoring before fouling out in the last quarter. Although the Istrouma team was much taller, the Jackets out-rebounded them greatly. Boddie and Williams came through with clutch rebounding as the Indians threatened the Jackets’ lead in the closing minutes.

The Jackets, hitting 64% of their field goals, beat the defending state champs, De La Salle, 62-52. Abendroth, Williams, and Seale hit 14, 13, and 13 points. The Cavs were 3 points ahead at the half but a fired-up Jacket team came back to outscore the New Orleans men by 13 points. This was the first time in 9 years that De La Salle had had 60 points scored against them. Powerful Thomas Jefferson of Dallas, last year’s state AAAA runners-up, dealt Byrd a stinging 80-68 defeat. A game, but outmanned, Jacket squad played well on offense but were well below par on defense. Teddie Boddie hauled in 14 ricochets to show his city-leading rebounding form. Abendroth led the Jacket scoring with 19 points, followed by Boddie and Seale with 14 apiece. The Dallas teams made it two out of two against the Yellow Jackets as South Oak Cliff beat the Byrdmen 60-51. Finding themselves behind 12 points at the half, the Stingers came back to outscore the Golden Bears in the last half but could not make up the deficit of the first two periods. Williams popped in 14 points to top the Jacket scoring, followed by Farr with 12, who played a good all-around game. Pete Seale fights hard to free himself from a Fair Park de- fender and drive in for a quick bucket. Byrd Jimmy Williams pops in two of his many points to help bring the BIT trophy to Byrd. Before an enthusiastic home crowd, including the Bas- ketball Queen and her court, the Byrd Yellow Jackets defeated cross-town rival Fair Park, 67-56. The Jackets dominated piay in the first half and then coasted home for this always-sweet victory. Abendroth once again showed fine form as he led the Jacket attack with 23 points, 18 of these in the first half. Coach Scotty Robertson cleared his bench in an effort to hold down the scoring, as the Byrd Yellow Jackets humiliated a Jennings fivesome 64-43. The Byrdmen held a commanding lead throughout the fray—outscoring the South Louisiana team in every quarter except the last. A 27-point splurge in the second quarter was the highest total registered by the Jackets in a single frame this year. Pete Seale, who played a great all-around game, was the game’s top scorer with 18 points, followed by Williams with 17. In one of the most exciting games in North Louisiana basketball, the Jacket roundballers upset the highly touted Lake Charles Wildcats 55-54. A spinning jump-shot by Joe Abendroth in a sudden death overtime put this valu- able wi n away. After leading for the entire first three quarters, the Yellow Jackets saw their 10-point lead sliced away in the fourth period. The Wildcats, led by prep All- American Charles Nash, then stayed even with Byrd in the first overtime. In the sudden death chapter Abendroth became the hero, after Nash had spoiled Lake Charles’ hopes by missing one of his free throws. Jimmy Williams turned in one of his most sparkling performances of the year as he meshed 25 points. Left: EUGENE FARR—Senior Letterman II Right: TEDDIE BODDIE—Senior Letterman II Wins Own Toumey In the opening round of the Byrd Invitational Tourna- ment, the Yellow Jackets stormed past hapless St. Johns 63-48. The Stingers were just too much for the Blue Flyers in every department. Abendroth and Boddie gave Byrd complete domination of the boards, while Williams notched 17 points in just 3 quarters. Jacket reserves played the fourth quarter, and, led by Charles Beach’s 7 points, finished well. To reach the semifinals, Byrd used a fast-breaking of- fense to crush a fine Springhill club 57-42. A great first half, sparked by Williams and Boddie, enabled the Jackets to coast to the victory. Although Williams with 24 and Boddie with 14 led the scoring, this was a team effort. Abendroth, Farr, and Seale hit many driving shots, which helped to break the ’Jack’s backs. With dead-eye shooting and fleeting feet the Yellow Jackets reached the finals of their own tourney by down- ing Pleasant Hill 77-50. The Jackets’ game was never better, as once again the starters weren’t needed in the final quarter. The boys from Pleasant Hili stayed in the game for the first half, but after that they couldn’t keep pace with the quick-scoring Jackets. Williams, red-hot in this tourney, hit 29 to lead the Byrd barrage. Seale with 13 and Abendroth with 12 followed in the scoring attack. With a chance to win their own tournament for the first time in the four-year history of the event, Byrd turned on the steam in the final half to defeat an under- rated Fair Park team 63-44. The game was close for the first quarter, but then the Jackets consistently pulled away. A 20-point output in the fourth quarter gave the hosts this long-desired trophy. Williams hit his season’s high of 30 points, which along with Abendroth’s 17 was enough to outscore the entire Indian team. Boddie also hit double figures with 10 points, and as usual led the team in re- RONNIE CONNER—Senior Letterman I bounding with 11. Williams and Bodd ie were named to the Ail-Tournament team, but actually the whole team should have been. The Byrdmen opened the district campaign with a 69-36 defeat at the hands of the Bossier Bearkats. The YeIlow T Jackets couldn’t find a flaw in the Bossier defense, while they found their own rather ragged. The game was fairly close for the first quarter, with the Bearkats owning a 16-11 lead, but after that the Jackets weren’t in the game. Abendroth led the scoring with 13, followed by Boddie with 11. Gordon Gibson grabs a de- fensive rebound and prepares to pass out to Joe Abendroth to start a fast-break against Coushatta. Joe Abendroth is fouled while driving for the basket, as Farr and Beach await the re- bound. Speed, Hustle, and Desire Bvrd basketball took a turn for the worse as the lightly- regarded Bastrop Rams upset the Yellow Jackets 59-54. This was a tight contest with the lead changing hands 14 times. The final quarter proved to be the downfall of the Byrdmen, as they missed numerous shots. Abendroth hit 19 points to lead the Jacket scoring, foliowed by Gibson with 10. With everything pointing to a Byrd defeat, the Yellow Jackets swarmed onto the court and out-manned a wild group of Fair Park Indians by a 52-50 decision. Sparked by Pete Seale’s playmaking, the Jacket offensive pattern GORDON GIBSON—Junior Letterman I never worked smoother, fojr at one time they kept the ball moving for a full two minutes. The game was close for the first quarter, but a scare was put in every Byrd fan in the final 3 minutes, as the Indians started a quick rally. The Jackets found their once-secure lead of 17 points cut to a mere 9 with a minute to play. Even then the Indians could not be stopped, but the Jackets held on and emerged weary, but happy winners. Abendroth, who meshed 21 points, was the game’s top scorer, and Williams was next with 14. Jacket hopes for winning the Bossier tournament were quickly erased, as an inspired Marthaville crew topped the Byrdmen 50-45. The Yellow Jackets led until the final quarter, when the men from Marthaville staged a fan- tastic rally which netted them 17 points to only 4 for the Jackets. The only bright spot for Byrd was Joe Aben- droth with 21 points. A decisive win over the North Caddo Rebels in the opening round of the Fair Park Tournament put Byrd back into the victory column. The Yellow Jackets started out slow and ended up slow, but in-between they poured it on the hapless Rebels. The Jackets hit only five points in the first quarter, but after catching up at 11-11, they were never headed. The sharp-shooting of Jimmy Williams enabled the Byrdmen to walk off with a 56-44 victory. Williams was high in the game with 17 points, followed by Abendroth with 13. The Coushatta Choctaws pulled a major upset in knock- ing the Yellow Jackets out of the Fair Park Tournament by a 43-40 count. The Byrdmen actually out-hit the Choctaws from the floor, but the ability of the Coushatta ballhawks to hit from the charity line proved to be the difference. The Jackets led for the first three frames, but faltered in the end. Abendroth grabbed scoring honors with 15 points, and Williams also hit double figures with 11. Characterize the Jackets The Byrd roundballers found the range once again as they swept past West Monroe 68-35. A big first quarter splurge gave the Jackets a comfortable lead, which they never relinquished. The Yellow Jackets completely domin- ated every phase of play. They played an outstanding defensive game, keeping the Rebels from notching a field goal for the first nine minutes, and out-rebounded the vis- itors by a 43-27 margin. The scoring was well divided, as three men hit in double figures. Williams canned 19, Abendroth 16, and Boddie 12. For the fifth time in as many years Quachita upset the Yellow Jackets in the Lions’ den by a 62-58 score. The game was evenly played throughout, except in the second quarter when the men from Mbnroe outscored the Jackets 21-11. Joe Abendroth was the only bright spot in the Byrd attack, hitting his season’s high of 27 points. The Byrdmen pulled within 2 points of the Lions in the closing seconds, but just couldn’t quite catch them. With Abendroth having a hot night. the rest of the scoring was well divided among 9 players. In a test of determination as well as ability, the Byrdmen leaped past Fair Park by a 69-53 score to leave the Jackets in contention for district honors. The game was tense and exciting for the first three quarters, but a 23 point outburst by the Jackets in the final chapter sewed it up. Four Byrd players hit in double figures in winning this very vital con- test. Williams led all scorers with 20 points, while Boddie notched 15, and Abendroth and Farr both got 14; Seale also contributed some sparkling playmaking and hustling defense. Jimmy Williams steals the ball from a surprised trio of Texarkana Tigers. In revenge for an earlier season loss, the Byrdmen swamped the Bastrop Rams by a 68-55 count. The Jackets found the zone defense set up by the Rams to their liking and grabbed an early lead which they never gave up. With the team hitting only 36 percent of their shots, Jimmy Wil- liams turned in one of his best performances of the year in hitting 57 percent of his shots and 26 points. While Wil- liams was getting the points, Abendroth grabbed most of the rebounds. Two other Jacket cagers crashed double figures, as Gibson meshed 12 and Boddie 10. Jackets Compile 4-0 With two of the starting five on the disabled list, the Yellow Jackets relied on teamwork to belt West Monroe 68-37. Gaining a quick 19-3 lead at the end of the first quarter, the Stingers consistently poured it on the out manned Rebels, while maintaining a stout defense. As the Rebel defenders were trying to corral Joe Abendroth, the district’s leadins: scorer, the rest of the team drove in for many lay-ups. The loss of Williams and Seale via injuries was more than offset by the other four starters. Abendroth was brilliant in notching 20 points and grabbing 19 re- bounds. Farr followed closely with 18 points, while Boddie hit 12, and Gibson 10. At left: ROGER BRILEY— Jr. At right: Freddie Brown drives in to lay in a quick two points, much to the amazement of the West Monroe oppon- ents. Record Against Fair Park With their backs to the wall in the district race, the Byrdmen ran up the biggest score in the school’s history in trouncing Ouachita 85-55. Joe Abendroth tied the school record for an individual, as he bombarded the basket for 32 big points. Abendroth was easily the game’s most out- standing player, but Eugene Farr played the finest game of his career in notching 20 markers. For the first quarter the Lions from Monroe kept pace with the Yellow Jackets, but from the second chapter on, it was a run-away. Farr hit 16 of his points in the first half to spark the team to a big lead at the intermission. The Stingers continued the onslaught in the third quarter, and the reserves finished up in the last chapter. With Abendroth and Farr carrying the brunt of the attack, Jimmy Williams, used only sparing- ly because of a sprained ankle, was the only other one to crack double figures, as he hit 12 points. District champion Bossier City demolished the Yellow’ Jackets’ hopes of gaining a berth in the state playoffs by squeezing by the Byrdmen 59-50. The Jackets led through- out the first half and through seven minutes of the third quarter, but after the Bearkats took the lead at 39-38, they were never headed. The first half was a battle of defenses, with the Stingers getting the advantage, but the second half was a complete reversal. Both teams opened up their offense. and Bossier hit unbelievable shots from every angle. The Jackets tried to keep pace with the big Bear- kats, but this just wasn’t the year for the six-year long string of defeats to be broken. The Jacket cagers hustled until the final buzzer and actually out-rebounded the much taller Bossierites by 34-26. In this season-closing game Abendroth and Farr were the keys in the Jacket attack. as Joe hit 20 points and Eugene netted 10, all in the first half. Other seniors playing a fine game for the last time were Pete Seale, Jimmy Williams, Teddie Boddie, and Ronnie Conner.

The 1959-60 basketball “B” team compiled an excellent 10-5 record, while being groomed for the future. In dis- trict play the Baby Jackets managed to beat every team, except Bossier, at least once. Most of the members of the “B” team were able to be used sparingly in the varsity scraps, thus gaining valuable experience. Johnny Nolan and Freddie Brown were the team’s leading point pro- ducers, while Alton Allen was the chief menace to the opposition on the boards. Johnny Nolan goes high to hit another bucket and spark a Jacket victory. WE iu SCHEDULE .... Texarkana . THEY . 30 4Q North Caddo _ .. 52 S1 _Texarkana .. 50 54 ....

After passing through one of the most successful seasons in its his- tory, members of the Byrd track team journeyed to Baton Rouge and the state AAA rally. As the shadows began to fall on Tiger Stadium, a difference of 40 points between Byrd and the nearest competitor made it apparent that there could be no controversy concerning the victory.

W. Turner produced three unbeaten relay teams. One, the mile relay team, bettered the previous state record by almost six seconds. Byrd also held the record they broke. Each of the other relay teams, and most of the all-staters, set at least one meet record. This year for the first time the team and the student body elected a Track Court, which was presented at the Bvrd Relays on Saturday, March 12. It was the duty of these girls to present the awards to the victors and they possibly inspired some of the excellent performances. Another group of girls to whom the track team is indebted is the track sponsors. These girls, chosen individually by the lettermen, have the job of selling programs and concessions at the local meets. _ | I [• ' jfi ' f — O BlfWiiM V 1 t « K-, G � � � UCf ' ..I UJ.. � : t 1 1 - v SIXTH PERIOD, FIRST ROW: Bobby Bond, Gaylon Wamble, Tex Williamson Mal- come Graham, Gene LaForge.

Cox, the Byrd High diamondmen finished the 1959 baseball campaign with a 12-8 record. The Jackets opened the season with a bang, winning 9 out of their first 13 games, including five dis- strict wins in five starts. However, the boom eventuallv fell. and Byrd was toppled from the ranks of undefeated in Dis- trict 1-AAA play. The Jackets ended the season in third place in the district with a record of seven wins and three losses. This year the Byrdmen look forward to a winning sea- son with nine returning lettermen back to bolster the squad. Those who have previously earned letters are: Bill Hancock, Eugene Farr. Pete Seale, Bill Rutledge, Bill Crain. Jimrm Williams, Tommy Gay, and Ben Dawkins. Other players sure to see plenty of action are A1 Chambliss, Kenneth Luk- er, Jackie Beason, and Phil Woodall.

Every year Byrd has had an excellent “B” team. with last year no exception, as the young Jackets racked up a 6-0 record against many tough opponents. Rahid support is given the team by the student body. Several of the games were played against the other school’s varsity team, which helped to season our players and give them valuable experience. Among their wins. the Byrd boys notched victories over Minden. Benton. and Bradley, Arkansas. A1 Chambliss and Phil Woodall were very instrumental in the “B” team’s great record.

The double handstand, which these boys are trying to perfect, is one of the more difficult gymnastic maneuvers. 266 Developing the timing and coordination necessary to per- form difficult gymnastic stunts is the purpose of the gym team. The team was organized because of a rising interest in gymnastics in the fall of 1957 by Coach Turner. Members of the team are chosen by competition among pupils of the various gym classes, and each has a special talent in which he excells. The team doesn’t compete with other schools, but it provides excellent preparation for boys who plan to try out for college teams.

FRANCES BAIN BILL HUBBELL SAL SCARPINATTO Head Cheerleader Vivacious Cheerleaders Boost Spirit Backing the Jackets all the way, the Byrd cheerleaders for 1959-60 boosted Byrd’s spirit to the top. Whether at football or basketball games, the cheerleaders were always there. Representing Byrd well, they tied for first place honors at cheerleading school in Huntsville, Texas, this summer. While there, they competed with other groups and took lessons in such things as tumbling. Here at Byrd the cheerleaders were always creating enthusiasm by making hoops for the games, conducting pep rallies and assem- blies and making posters and banners for the halls. One of the biggest highlights of the year was “Go West Day” to raise spirit for the Thanksgiving game. Looking back on the year, we can say that our 1959-60 cheer- leaders truly boosted Byrd spirit. Byrd cheerleaders worked very hard on their yells this summer. JOHN DAVID STEWART MIMI COUCH BILL MORRIS 1 W ' - T§|fla m ■.

Spurred on by the outstanding playing of Rob Franks and several other equally fine players. the Jackets finished fourth in the Tri-State meet. the first tournament of the season. As the season pro- gressed, the Jackets progressed with it. taking third place honors in the Bastrop match. The Golf team placed number two in the district play- offs. second only to the victorious Neville linksters. From there the Jackets went on to the state playoffs to take fourth place honors in Louisiana. Although only two returning lettermen, Tommy Smith and Gerald Fordham. remain out of the six of 1959. the prospects of the Byrd High Golf team in 1960 are brijrht.
