E. Byrd High School is a tradition in itself. Standing proudly for forty-four years, Bvrd High School has created a tradition which has not heen restrained within its four red- bricked walls. Its spiril is un- surpassed . Traditions, likc weekly assemhlies and ”.Go West Day,” electrify the stu- dent hody with an intangihle feeling of loyalty. Its academic achievement is unchallenged. To Keep on Keeping on and to reach for that unattainahle goal are traditions which stu- dents strive to maintain. All traditions, though, are mean- ingless without those few peo- ple who preserve the old tradi- tions and introduce the new. ACTIVITIES and ORGANI- ZATIONS, the MILITARY and ATHLETICS preserve the old. The FACULTY and CLASSES, MUSIC, and HON- ORS and ADVERTIZING in- troduce a beginning- from which new traditions spring. C. E. By rd High School is truly a tradition which we shall al- ways honor. Classes Faculty Advertising Loval mrmbrrs of ihr R.O.T.C. posted the colors, marking the start ol anoth- er school day. Students and faculty opened each assembly with the Pledge of Allegiance. Homecoming brought together three men, James H. Dunean, Grover C. Koffman and Dr. B. L. Shaw who have given eount- less hours of time and energy to make Byrd the best sehool ever. BYRD, WE STAND TO HONOR THEE What does a Bvrd High student think of when he sees the colors purple and gold? He recalls all the thrill and ex- citement that dominate every Byrd assemhly, pep rally, and game. He remembers the feeling of togetherness and con- cern for the school that made all Jackets feel united in vic- torv or defeat. Echoes of the wild excitement and cheering at the victory flag raisings fdl his ears. He realizes thal peo- ple at Bvrd have something intangible but very real that all other schools seem to be without. This special something can be seen in numerous banners and posters decorating the halls before each game. It is present in the shouts of students attending games, causes Pep Squad girls to yell until they ' re hoarse, and shines in the eyes of supporting fans when the Jackets pull through to win another game. It is evident in the singing of the Alma Mater and in the standing ovations for Dr. Shaw, Byrd’s principal. This spe- cial something is what has made Bvrd what it is today. It is the tradition of lovalty.

He soon distinguishes himself, however, by takinp part in the aetivities of vari- ous organizations. Bvrd has an assortment of organi a- tions, each offering fulfillment and responsibility in a different field. The Stingerettes and Purple Jaekets lead the spirit which is known throughout Louisiana. Inter- act, Key Club, and Leo Club, three service organizations, offer young men an opportunitv to serve their school and communitv, with Z Club providing the same chance for girls. R.O.T.C. trains bright young men to lead our military in the future. Brush and Palette gives those with artistic talent a chanee to display thtdr skills. Foreign language clubs offer an extra understanding of the peo- ple and customs in other eountries. Other clubs further a studenfs skills for tlu profession he mav ehoose to fol- low in the future. There is an organization for every stu- dent at Byrd; one which involves his interest, wherever it may lie. Key Club members Mark Thorne-Thomsen, Noel Be- noit and Jerry Peyton sold purple and gold derbies to Bvrd students and faculty. 6 Susan Hiers and Jimmv Watson sold f ' High Lifes’ ' to students during homeroom. ; • l m.T Vi 1 QUR I I i KIVflL ' S Enthusiasm was instilled in the student hody by the en- lightening music played hy the Byrd Baml at each pep rally. Z Club members Beth Bailey and Laura Peterson served refreshments to students who helped guide at Back-to- School Night and the parents who attended the annual event. Interact meml ers hung a hanner from the gym to promote spirit at the games. 7 THROUGH THE YEARS TO YOU It is only in the dassrooms that onr sees the real potential of a Byrd pupil. Eduealion is the key foundation in life and at Byrd it is the major goal for all. The knowledge that each Jaeket ae- quires at Bvrd can take him to the top once he enters the outside world. Byrd has gained a repulation of having an ex- cellent academie reeord through the years. It has produced National Merit Finalists and Semi-Fi- nalists. Its students have reeeived many other ae- ademic awards through the years and have brought recognition to their school. The knowl- edge that is acquired at Byrd is of lasting value to every student. The 1970-1971 B rd fai ult , administration, and stalf, a verv important part of the srhool, eave their time freelv and whole- heartedlv. 8 Homrroom classrs gavc thc stiulcnts a chancT tci compcHc with onc anothcr.

WITH OUR FRIENDSHIPS HOLD Throughout the year many events demonstrate what goes on at 3201 Line Avenue such as banners along the halls, pep rallies and numerous other activi- ties. Yet it is the individual that makes these things possible and turns 3201 Line Avenue into C. E. Byrd High School, a thrilling city of activities. It is the indi- vidual that possesses and generates the atmosphere one feels while just walking through these traditional halls. It is the individual that excels in academic fields and brings honor to his school. We, the Jackets, are the individuals of Bvrd and it is what we make it. The spirit, warmth and excitement of C. E. Byrd High School is generated by each one of us into the school that can only be called the best. Charles Long stood for a few minutes after the Linear game to review the high points of the Jacket victory. Students stopped for a few minutes in the hall to comment on the decorations for Gator Hunt Week. Students participated in the morning pep rally to build up their spirit for the coming game. 10 Noel Bcnoit rlapp ‘d for thr Pep Squad during thoir perform- ance in the homecoming half-time show. 11 ALWAYS DEEP WITHIN OUR HEARTS Competition is a dominant word at Byrd High School. Bvrd kept its good athletic standing with an excellent bas- ketball and baseball team and a foot- ball team which went to the state playoffs. The debate team won trophy after trophy over the nation, while the tennis team attempted to maintain the state championship title, which it has held for over a decade. The student body of Byrd is known for its spirit and team support. Because of the participation of everyone and the excellence of teams, Byrd High School is widelv admired. Bvrd students stood during one of the manv erueial moments of the foothall season. Nothing speaks with greater truth of the Jaeket deter- basketball players praetieed for their upcoming season. mination than this sign. 12 Brraking th ‘ hoop liefort thr gamr was thr privilege of thr team raptains for that night’s gamc [M r slanitned anothrr hall awa in onc of Bvrcl ' s THE PURPLE AND THE GOLD The keystone of life at C. E. Byrd is contained in one small five-letter word, S-P-I-R-I-T. Byrd High Sehool exemplifies that very word; not just the Pep Squad or Purple Jaekets, hut the whole of Bvrd High Sehool. from the faculty to the fresh- man class. With the coming of students from Valencia and Captain Shreve. Bvrd ' s spirit faced a supreme challenge. The challenge was to ealm ill feelings and unite all into one school body. Jacket Spirit came through when it counted, for as foot- ball and basketball seasons wore on, hardly a person refused to join in the singing of We Are the Jackets or the Alrna Mater. Byrd spirit has been shown for years in one statement. Jacket Spirit Ain ' t Never Gonna Die. It might be said that with the addition of the new students, Jacket Spirit rose from times of turmoil and dissent to forrn a sense of togetherness and pride in the school. C. E. Byrd IS Spirit.

Bvrd High School has an impressive list of aetivities only beeause of the great enthusiasm and conduet of its students. Go West Dav is an event celebrated eaeh year on the day of the Fair Park game. On this special oecasion Bvrd turns into a western town with everyone dressing as eowboys. Then there is Basketball Day when the stu- dents earry out the theme chosen for that year. This year Gator Hunt Week was added. During this week students partici- pated in spirit boosting aetivities for the Captain Shreve game. Jackets are truly for- tunate that they can be a part of the unii|ue- ness of Byrd’s many splendid activities. The football boys awaited their breakfast whieh was an annual eveni for the Woodlawn game and was provided bv the Pep Scpiad A Byrd student took advantage of the coke and candy maehines whieh were provided for the students in their study hall rooms.

Activities are a major part of C. E. Byrd. They are neces- sary in bringing the students together and making high school life more meaningful and worthwhile. Whether a student is musical, athletic, or mathematically inclined makes no difference for there is an activity for each and every stu- dent at Byrd. This wide range of extracurricular activities ex- pand the student’s view of life. They prepare him for facing the outside world. ORIENTATION Filled With the ringing of the 8:10 bell, Bvrd students rushed into the auditorium to see the skit performed by the Student Coun- cil. The skit pictured all aspects of student life at Byrd. Deciding upon which organizations to join was made much easier after the students saw the skit. Ending the assembly with ' We Are the Jack- ets,” the Pep Squad and band fdled the new Byrdites with spirit which would never leave them as long as they lived. The band, directed bv Mr. Shields, en- tertained the students w ith their livelv music. Rehearsing the skit for Orientation Dav, Joe Dover, Steve Culpepper, and Nyle Politz discussed their parts. In answer to Have ya got the spir- it?’’ members of the stage crew sang and danced to ' We Are the Jackets.” With the blowing of the majorette’s whistle and the beating of the drums, the Byrd High Pep Squad marcht‘d down the aisles of the auditorium. 20 Students With Spirit After the assembly, students got their schedule cards and began searching for their classrooms. At Baek-to-SchooI night, parents learned about various school activities and organi- zations, through displays in the front hall. Mrs. Marv McClanahan explained to parents how slu graded papers and tests. Bvrd s mascot, Jack the Jacket, was displaved in the hall for parents on Back-to-School Night. 21 PEEP SHOW Drew Record Crowd Each year at Byrd the students have fun watching iheir friends get water-logged in the dunking booth, skin their legs trying to climb the greased pole, and try other games around the Carnival. The Drum Corps supervised the booths, with help from the Junior and Senior Pep Squad. The Peep Show skit, written by Barbara Ewing, Patti Mullenix, and Fran- nie Norris, was staged in the gym after the Carnival. The Pep Squad dressed the football players as members of the Harri- son and Moody clans, trees, and frogs. The theme was Romiet and Julio , or ff Who Stole the Pigskin?” At the White Elephant Sale. Celeste Ellis sold paper flowers and other arti- cles which students might want. 77 Dr. Shaw and Mr. Rife spent most of the time in the jail during the Carnival. A student reached for the top of the greased pole in hopes that he might get the prize money. During the Peep Show skit, Prince Bilberry checked to’ see Romiet and Julio met the frog in the garden. if Romiet was dead. James Sykes took an involuntary dip in the dunking booth. The Moodys paraded out to meet their rivals, the Harrisons, in an effort to find °ut who stole the pigskin. Carmen Narcolli and Jan Parrish coached John Garner in the art of shooting out candles at the Carnival. 23 PEP RALLIES Boosted Jacket Spirit Pep rallies were an important part of the life at Byrd. They pro- moted the team, brought out the school spirit, and made everyone feel closer to the school. Through the pep rallies students were not just bystanders but active partici- pants in the program. In the Go West Dav Pep Rally, the f ' Loan Fish Darvl Koelemay socked it to Tonto Thomas. Steve Culpepper and Allen Pomeroy en- tertained the student body with witty commercials during many of the pep rallies.

Band. 34 As mathematics is the lan- guage of all sciences, music is the language of all people. The music department of Byrd has excelled and won honors throughout the state. The hand has helped to promote Jacket spirit by playing at all the assemblies and football games. The exquisite world of music can control one’s feelings. Music can raise one’s spirit to great heights or can plunge one’s spirit into the depths of depression. Music is an art that one must learn to appreci- ate; it is the creation of the art- ist — it is an expression of feeling. Music is an important factor in a well-rounded educa- tion. Byrd High School is proud of its music department and of those who work so hard to keep music an essential part of the school. 35 Members Of BAND The 1970-1971 Stage Band Docia Milloy, Jeanette Arnold, and Deborah Richardson helped Bill Thomas was chosen to plav in the All-State Sen- out this year as hand office workers. ior Band. .36 Brought Honor To Byrd Th( 1970-1971 Bvrd Band This year, under the leadership of Mr. Roosevelt Shields, the Byrd High School Band brought many honors to Bvrd.

Unity vvas the key word of all groups, and the members of Byrd’s organiza- tions were unified. Almost every Jacket knew the meaning of working as a team toward the same goal. The main purpose of each club was to help the school, city, or nation. They provided the participants with opportu- nities to understand about life and its purpose. Each Jacket had the privilege of being able to pick the club or organiza- tion that he wished and in the area of interest he preferred. There were also many honor organizations which required exceptional work and excellent achievements for admission. Byrd’s organizations promoted dedicated endeavor, achieve- ment, seriousness of purpose, unity and school spirit. 49 BRUSH AND PALETTE Contributed Mr. Edward Allen and Mrs. Katherine Borden were the new co- sponsors of the Art Cluh this year.

They joined the Junior and Senior Pep Squads in support- ing all school functions. On the morning of the Woodlawn game, the Drum Corps mem- bers honored the mighty foot- ball players with a hearty breakfast. During the early fall, Corpsmen coordinated the Stingerettes’s largest money- making project — the carnival and peep show.

These girls were the Bvrd Stingerettes. Elected in the spring of 1970, the girls settled down to work in the middle of July when they began summer practice. At that time they were taught the basics of marching and operating as a pep squad. They were responsible for making post cards, locker tags, posters, and banners which were placed around the school as spirit boost- ers. On the first day of schooi, the girls made a thundering appear- ance with the echo of drums fill- ing the auditorium. From that day forward, time and effort were unending terms for these girls. Stingerettes formed the tradition- Texas Tucker Pam Mclntosh Treasurer Drum Corps Sgt.-al‘Arms al ' T’ before each game, and exe- cuted a precision performance at half time. A highlight of the per- formances was the one at the Ruston game where the girls demonstrated a different tech- nique as they quickened their steps to coincide with the music of the band. Beginning under the direction and sponsorship of Mrs. Sallie Moody, this year the Stingerettes Enthusiastic Stingerettes escorted each foothall boy from the receiving line to the tahles on the morning of 94 the Woodlawn foothall hreakfast.

Discipline is also applied; every cadet learns how to take orders and carry them out with a sense of duty. After graduating from these varied lessons and expe- riences, the young men of the ROTC are prepared to defend their country and possibly to give their lives for it. 107 “A” COMPANY Instituted In past years, A” Company has been an avvard winning company, and this year was no exception.

Measuring one’s own abili- ties, physical and mental, is an important factor in competi- tion. When a person joins a team, he learns to be a mem- ber of a close-knit group and not a loner. The individual learns to put forth his greatest effort to improve himself and to aid the team. Although win- ning is not everything, it gives the players a sense of self-satis- faction. In means that the hours of training and prepara- tion has paid off. In the face of defeat, a person learns that his confidence must be kept in order to play a better game, and more effort must be put forth to win the next game. It is in the rigors of practice and excitement of the games that a person discovers his capabili- ties and begins to form the basis of his manhood. 121 BYRD NETTERS Captured Climaxing another winning sea- son, the 1969-1970 Jacket netters captured the state championship for the sixth straight year.

The Jackets went for two points on the conversion and made it on a pass from Johnson to junior end Leon ' Thompson. The third quar- ter was scoreless and the fourth quarter was a deadlock until the four minute mark, when the Bearcats pushed across two scores to put the final count at 21-8 in favor of the Bearcats. Al- though they lost, the Jackets showed that they were a team to be contended with in the future.

The Jacket scores came on a six yard pass from James Johnson to Leon Thompson and a thirty-two yard field goal by John Hale.

Charles Ray McCoy exhibited proper form for jumping the hurdle. Tracksters waited for instructions on developing skills. BOYS’ P.E. Encouraged Competition In Boys’ Physical Education, boys participated in football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, and track. Rainy days were spent in the gym playing basketball and various other indoor games. Some days were spent learning the fundamentals of weight-lifting and tumbling and others were spent in the lecture room viewing various films about health, drugs, and other subjects. Each P.E. class took health one six weeks during the year. They learned the proper methods of administering first aid and ways to keep fit. Playing baseball and football encouraged competition and good sportsmanship. Track sports were enjoyed by all, especially the run- ning broad jump and the high jump. After completing the well- rounded course of Physical Edu- cation the students were better equipped to meet the problems of the tuture. In the little gym, one of the many items of exercising equipment was the set of parallel bars. 178 During the year, volleyball was played in boys’ P.E. classes. This sport required skill to hit the ball into the right place so the opposing team cannot return the volley. During an exciting game of volleyball, several of the students were having a dif- ficult time returning the ball over the net to the opposite team. New Uniforms Were Worn In GIRLS’ P.E. Stephanie Bosco, Diane McDow, Amy Dover, Gail Headrick, Bren Carrey, La- necy Turner, and Brenda Ford tap daneed to music in physical education classes. In physical education classes, girls participated in many indoor and outdoor sports such as ten- nis, volleyball, archery, baseball, basketball, and touch football. Girls not only learned the basic skills of sports, but also how to play properly and how to be a good sport. Modern dancing, tap dancing, and the basic dancing techniques were taught, and girls learned dances such as the polka, waltz, and samba. After they learned the basic steps, girls created their own dances to their own music selections. All time wasn’t spent outside or in the gvm. During one six weeks, girls stayed in the class- room and learned health, first aid, and social hygiene. Many heard lectures by doctors and teachers who explained present health problems in Shreveport and the United States. Danita Kottenbrook dribbled around the howling pin as quickly as possible to win a relay for her side during physical education class. Mrs. Mary Burroughs instructed her physical education classes on the proper way to drihble a basketball. 179 Byrdites received many honors this year. Several Jackets who gained honors were: Chuck Knight, President, National Honor Society; Libby Lagersen, Quill and Scroll: Johnnv Armor, National Merit Finalist; Barbara Ewing, Miss Mistletoe; Will McCrocklin, President, Varsity Club; and Karen Homza, GUSHER Business Staff. One’s goals can only he at- tained by that extra effort and to exert this effort re(|uires in- centive. This incentive is honor; not only the praise and fame accompanied with such honor, but also the self-satis- faction. The pleasure of reach- ing the goal leads to the desire to set more and higher goals and to conquer them. In this fast changing world, each one must strive to reach his goal in order to keep this society con- tinually progressing. To walk the extra mile, to do that which is not required,” is the formu- la for the achievement of one’s goals. N.F.L. Hosted Its Debaters worked many hours this year finding in- formation and setting up cases. The N.F.L. at Byrd was composed of student debaters who worked togeth- er under the sponsorship of Mr. Raymond Rodgers. Byrd debaters attended tournaments in Louisiana, Ar- kansas, Texas, Oklahoma and Alabama. During the summer, the N.F.L. worked on the foot- ball programs, and several went to debate workshops. Some of the workshops were attended at Georgetown University, Louisiana Tech, TCU, and Stephen F. Austin. In the fall, debaters Jim Cowles and Jim Shuey took the affirmative side, and debaters Mike Monsour and Mike Stone took the negative side to the topic — Re- solved that compulsory attendance and final examina- tions should be abolished.” The assembly was held to attract new students into the N.F.L. January 15-16, Byrd held its fifth annual debate tournament, and Captain Shreve won the overall sweepstakes.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The Grover C. Koffman Chapter of the National Honor Society, founded in 1935, continued in the tradition of serving Bvrd stu- dents. The members ushered at both the Baccalaureate service and Graduation exercises of the 1970 senior ciass and presented the di- plomas at Graduation. The first project undertaken by the N.H.S. in the 1970-1971 school year was the skit for the Homecoming as- sembly. As in years past, this skit dealt with the many opportuni- ties, advantages, and great spirit existing at Byrd. This year’s skit showed the memories of a dying Jack the Jacket, who recovered through the remarkable healing powers of ' Jacket Juice.” At Thanksgiving, the National Honor Society sponsored a school-wide food drive for a needy family. Among other N.H.S. projects was the Tutor Study Hall in which members assisted stu- dents in subjects that gave them trouble. Following the example set by the 1970 N.H.S., the 1971 N.H.S. held a carnation sale on the first day of spring.

Men and women, since the beginning of time, have taught others what knowledge they have acquired. Through the ages, this knowledge has built up to bring us all the facts we know now about the world and universe. Teachers are a necessary part of our na- tion. Just as parents are re- sponsible for the molding of a child’s character, teachers try to give a child the background in knowledge he needs. Through teachers, children and young adults alike form ideas about everything around them. Teachers open up new worlds of exploration and dis- covery. Teachers have a large responsibility that requires pa- tience and a willingness to serve, for the mind they are guiding today will be the teachers of the world tomor- row. 205 Along with many other changes at Byrd during the past year came a change in principals. Dr. B. L. Shaw, who had substituted as prin- cipal last year, proved that he was quite capable of taking over the job permanently and was appointed to take over the job this year. He brought many new ideas for im- provement. His decision to allow the girls at Bvrd to wear long pants was accepted with much enthusiasm by all the girls. Byrd became the first school in Caddo Parish to have identification cards, with which stu- dents could get into games for stu- dent rates and could have a means of identifying themselves at school and anywhere else. Under Dr. Shaw’s supervision, study halls were moved to two large rooms in the basement, where the students could have refreshments. He also called in an architect to help make further improvements in those study halls. Dr. Shaw proved himself competent in every way to be mayor of the City of Byrd, and his patience and un- derstanding led the school through this year of change in a fine man- ner. New And Old Leadership DR. B. L. SHAW, Principal Dr. Shaw took careful aim at the can- dle-squirt booth at the Byrd Carnival.

The major step for the 1970-71 Junior class of Byrd was branching into new fields of knowledge which included a wide range of subjects. During their Junior year, students were given the opportunity to enroll in such classes as chemistry, alge- bra II, American history, and so- ciology. They also played major roles in such sports as football, bas- ketball, golf, track, and tennis. In the second semester, many Juniors worked hard in preparation for the Junior prom. For several weeks, stu- dents raised money by selling doughnuts and coat hangers. The success of the Junior prom capped off a remarkable year for the Junior class. Junior Jeanne Middleton won the trophy for having the best decorated car These Junior students listened intently to gain in the Key Club parade for the Byrd-Captain Shreve game. more knowledge about English. 276 Carol Holland solved an equation for her Algebra II class. Nominees for the Junior class were: Clay Robinson, Martha McClelland, Debbie Hysell, Mark Thorne-Thomsen, Jerry Peyton.

Le Cer- cle Fran ais; Janey Robertson, Los Vecinos; and Shawn Rachal, Latin Forum Sophomores experienced a new feeling this year when entering Byrd, many for the first time. They began the year eager to participate in school activities, and were willing to accept the challenges a high school offers. Sophomores represented their school well this year. Many were elected to Interact, Key Club, Leo Club, and Z” Club, giving them an opportunity to serve Byrd through service to others. Sophomore girls had the opportunity to join the Purple Jackets, and through this or- ganization, they boosted school spirit. The Sophomore class contributed a letterman to the football team and many other fme players to the basketball, track, and baseball teams. Many Sophomores represented their home- rooms by serving on the Student Council and Red Cross. The rest of the student body was astounded by the displays of spirit by Sophomores. On several occasions the spirit stick was won by this class. Sophomores contributed much to making 1970-71 a successful year at Byrd. Accepted New Challenges Sophomores took part in many spirit raising events such as decorating their cars for Gator Hunt Week. Seen by George Kurz’s car are Debbie Banzhof, Jon North, George Kurz, Charles Tooke, and Brian Homza. i m Sophomores listened intently as Mr. Conover explained a chapter in science class. 293 SOPHOMORES Found Opportunities Riohard Noel Adams Sandra Faye Ailstock Debra Ann Allen Jaquita Anderson Mary Anne Arnold James Walter Ary Sharon Suzanne Axenfield Brian Alan Baker James Augustus Ballard Barbara Bane Debbie Gale Banzhof Delories Barton Rusty Benson Beok Penne Alexis Booras Ginger Bosko Steffanie Yvonne Bosko James David Box Michael Joseph Bradley Debra Suzanne Brainis Gerald Britnell Corky Henderson and James Stewart displayed the uniforms of the organizations of whieh they were members. 294 In Organizations At Byrd Jenny Lucille Buchanan Sydney Elaine Burch Bruetta Burks Fatricia Ann Burnett Larry Robert Burns Bruce Ahraham Busada Gregg H.

Advertising is a form of communication that in- forms each of us about these needs. Advertising also creates competition between companies; the knowledgeable consumer will choose the company with the best products and lowest prices. Any product needs advertising to sell, and every Jacket must learn to evaluate the advertising world. The sale of ads enables the staff to offer the GUSHER to you at a reasonable price and enables the companies to advertise their ser- vices and products. 315 BOBBY L.
