OUR beloved country and the lib- erties for which it stands, to our men in the Services on the far-flung battle-fronts of the world, to our Allies who fight with us for freedoms we cherish, and to final vic- tory and a lasting peace we of Centenary College dedicate our lives. TUDENTS - The Gremlins were originated by pilots of Britain ' s Royal Air Force. When the bomber ' s wings were covered with ice, doubtless some of the frosty spade- nosed Gremlins were at work, not to mention the harm done by a Gremlin who started fires in the motors. Then, of course, there was a wily Gremlin whose favorite prank was to clog fuel lines, or to turn enemy searchlights upon the planes. These were the bad Gremlins. Others provided convenient cloud banks for harassed pilots, guided their bombs to the target, helped a damaged ship to its home field, or just sat around and wished the Allies good luck. When the United States went to war and some R. A. F. instructors visited this country, their Gremlins accom- panied them, some stopping at Centenary College. Gremlin Sleepy visited all the classes, and Gremlin Fifi brought pleasant memories and day-dreams of that date the night before. However, there were and still are many good Gremlins on the campus aiding in the Scrap Drives, Bond Selling Campaigns, First Aid and other Red Cross work, as well as Centenary ' s Cadets. May Britain ' s best Gremlins like their new home and remain on the Centenary Campus for the Duration. ,-xy «, sopho or o d z III V) At the beginning of the 1943 college year Centenary played host to squadrons of Army and Navy C. P. T. Trainees as well as to the incoming freshmen. The C. P. T. boys were billeted in Centenary ' s Rotary Hall where they studied Basic and Pre-flight Training while the Sen- iors introduced green Freshmen to college life by helping them register and find their classes. jjJI E c EGISTRATION Doorway of Shreveport Hall, Haynes Campus. ■ 1 • ' M.r j IM S .JI IPi.HmiH ■ 1J ..Ji.., m m fffc ij j ffl Captain L.

In December, 1942, Centenary College acquired the Dodd campus. The Air Corps sent its Cadets to learn Basic Flying in Shreveport, and these men were stationed in the lovely buildings, renamed Annie Haynes Hall and Shreveport Hall, on the Cen- tenary Haynes Campus. Here they study English, Physics, Mathematics, History, Geography, First Aid and Physical Training. According to schedule a squadron will graduate every three months. The Cadets were welcomed to Centenary College by President Pierce Cline and Paul M. Brown, presi- dent of the Board of Trustees, at a special chapel program held in the Gymnasium. Speaker for the occasion was Captain L. J. Coyne, in charge of the Cadets. (Right) Paul M. Brown, Chairman of the Board, Dr. Pierce Cline and Captain L. J. Coyne greet students and cadets.

The United States Office of Education has established a nation wide program to provide technical training at college levels for men and women critically needed in war industries. The entire program is under the super- vision of the United States Commissioner of Education and is supported by a grant of funds made by Congress. The work for the North Louisiana area is administered by Centenary College of Louisiana and the Louisiana Polytechnic Institute. More than six hundred men and women have received valuable technical training in the twenty-six courses offered at the College during the year. All courses offered were at college level and of direct value to the war effort. These courses are offered tui- tion-free, after working hours, to men and women em- ployed in war industries or those who wish to prepare for such employment. Louisiana Polytechnic Institute and Centenary College have worked in close cooperation in sponsoring the wartime educational program of the U. S. Office of Education and the Manpower Commission. The faculty of the Louisiana Polytechnic Institute School of Engi- neering has made possible the successful operation of the engineering training courses on the Centenary cam- pus. Instructor Harold Kelley explains operations of gauges to students preparing for work in ord- nance plants. (Above at right).

Last year an important step was taken in the founding of an Honor System based on the Honor Court, Faculty Court, and Proctor plan. This year the tenth session of the Centenary Student Senate has carried out these plans, and the Honor Court has functioned with comparative success. Formed from a group of unusually congenial officers and members, the Senate of 1942-1943 has been able to make rapid progress in many fields. One of the projects was to submit a list of suggested improvements necessary for the beautification of the buildings and campus, most of which where immediately followed by the Business Office. To the students ' delight, a nickelodeon was purchased, by the Senate for use in the Student Union Building. This nickelodeon was used for many dances on the campus, after being presented by the Senate at a social gathering in the S.U.B. The tenth session of the Student Senate has been probably the most successful group of student governors in its history, and though its ranks were broken many times by the Call to War, it has traveled further toward its final goal.

The Centenary Intramural Council, headed by Chairman Gladys Tippett, who was voted Centenary ' s Most Athletic Girl, is composed of two boys and two girls from each of the four classes to act as Intramural Sports Representatives. Each student is given the responsibility of seeing that his class is well represented in every tournament sponsored by the C. I. G, and must announce the new games and form teams. Meeting every Monday morning during Chapel period, this group discusses the progress of the Intramural program and makes adjustments necessary for its success. In cooperation with the Athletic Directors, Mrs. Davidson and Coach Schaal, and with the Girls ' Athletic Chairman and Boys ' Athletic Chairman of the Student Senate, these members schedule the tournaments, the play-offs, set the rules, and announce the winners. Inaugurated only this year, the C. I. C. is proud of its work and is making plans for a larger and more suc- cessful year for 1943-1944. INTRAMURALS... Centenary Co-eds practice a little archeiy. Baseball is part of the Girls ' Intramural Program. ACTION AT THE GYM Since it is impossible for Centenary ' s Athletic Department to continue its activities as in former years and to sponsor football and basketball games in and away from Shreveport, the Physical Education instructors met and planned an entirely new program for the students. Included in this Intramural schedule were games between classes, games within classes, inter- fraternity and inter-sorority games, games for groups, and individual matches, each tournament ending with the announcement of the champion. Featured on the program were football, volleyball, basketball, and field ball games, tennis, shuffleboard, and ping pong matches. Governed by the Centenary Intramural Council, the program proved very effective. Challenges from vari- ous groups raised the interest of the students, and aside from the players, many spectators gathered to watch rival teams on the play-offs. This program will probably be continued for the Duration, and has indeed re- ceived a fine start. Boys form a pyramid in the Gym. Sam shows his prowess. Tumbling is a favorite spoit.

MAROON JACKETS This year marks the twelfth anniversary of the Ma- roon Jackets, a junior-senior Centenary co-ed organ- ization. Sponsored by Mrs. A. R. Campbell, Dean of Women, members of this group act as official hos- tesses for the college. They serve as guides for be- wildered freshmen, helping them arrange schedules, and conducting them to classes. They usher at chapel, accompany the college band on parades, form an official welcoming body for all visitors to the college, and serve at every campus function. Maroon Jackets are selected on the basis of scholar- ship, appearance, and personality from girls of the junior and senior classes, three from each sorority and non-sorority group. The life of a Maroon Jacket is not as easy as it may sound. Members must be present at each college event in uniform in spite of the weather; they must work hard for everything that concerns the college. Nevertheless, the privileges and pleasures of be- longing to this organization are so numerous that the position of a Maroon Jacket is desired and envied on the campus. Hart, Thihodeaux and Hooper discuss the soldiers. Maroon Jackets meet the soldiers at the Gym. Group ot Maroon Jackets leaving the Gymnasium. Meetings are sometimes held at the sorority houses. Peyton, Lunny, Baird, and Skin- ner discuss weighty problems. Under the expert guidance of director J. R. Marcellus, the College Band gained new fame despite the fact that the War has caused an acute shortage of male musicians. This organization was chosen as a welcoming unit to introduce the Centenary Student Body to its fellow-students, the Army Air Corps Cadets.

OUR CHOIR The Girls ' Glee Club entertains the students at the Chapel Program The outstanding musical organization and pride of the college is the Centenary College Choir. Organized last year, its members did not lose their enthusiasm for ensemble singing. From the choir sprang two other commenda- ble organizations: the Girls ' Glee Club, and the Centenary quartet, each of which per- formed at many functions on and off the campus. The quartet, composed of Eleanor Roquemore, June Franks, Hall Lyons, and Carley Fox, was the popular guest of many civic and social organizations in Shreveport. Special praise must be given to Alvin C, Cheesy , Voran for his splendid direction and leadership. His musical taste for re- petoire and ability as director demands the respect and admiration of all who know and work with him. Assisting Mr. Voran as officers of the choir are: Harriett Crawford, president; June Franks, secretary; Sam Papa, treasurer; and George Brown, librarian. Alvin C.

Joe Stephens, Editor This year the Conglomerate, Centenary ' s news- paper, was published bi-monthly instead of every week, and has continued as a five-column edition. The Conglomerate scooped the local Shreveport papers on all important campus events, such as the Who ' s Who selections, the winners of the an- nual Popularity Contest, and the Beauty Contest. Several new columns made their appearance dur- ing the 1942-43 season. Fashion Parade and Sports Review were acclaimed by the students. Editor Joe Stephens handled the paper from mid- term, early in 1942, until Roland Achee succeeded him about the same time this year. Both were aided by John Woods, co-editor.

Needless to remark, many, or may we say count- less, hours have been spent in pursuit of this goal. Many interruptions impeded progress, such as government rationing and priorities of materials, the love-life of the Business Manager, and last and probably the best, the necessity of finding a new Yoncopin Off ice. When the Cadets came to Centenary, an enlarging project for the Boys ' Din- ing Hall was begun, and thus the Staff acquired spacious quarters in the Student Union Building where work was facilitated by roomy files and cabinets. The Staff sends abject apologies to enemies made in wangling for contracts, money for pages, copy, and so forth; and expresses infinite appreciation for those who stuck with them until the bitter end.

Once more the wearers of the Star and Crescent reaped a lion ' s share of campus honors. Despite the war, they pledged a large number of outstanding freshmen and upperclassmen who have made enviable names for the chapter at Centenary. About eighty boys who have left the chapter since the beginning of the war are serving their country in every branch of the service, and every month more are answering the Call to the Colors. On the home front the chapter has had one of the best years since its re-installation at Centenary. Among the highlights of its social program were a number of dances, skating parties, banquets, and a series of in- formal Sunday Night Open Houses. Among the big men on campus, Kappa Sigma counts John Woods, president of the chapter, who served as vice-president of the Student Body and Student Senate, president of the Senior Class, secretary of Alpha Chi, Chairman of the Freshman Rules Committee, Co -editor of the Conglomerate, member of the Student- Faculty Disciplinary Committee, Honor Court, Pi Kappa Delta, and Who ' s Who. Gene Hilliard, second term president, was the campus ' choice for Most Popular Boy, a member of the Inter-fraternity Council and Student Senate, and was signally honored by being chosen for Who ' s Who. His scholastic achievements are shown in his two years ' membership in Alpha Chi and his work as lab assistant for the Commerce Department. Another Kappa Sig who won the coveted honor of Who ' s Who is Quitman Williams, whose outstanding work as a student and as assistant in Physics and Chemistry brought him a fellowship at the University of North Carolina. The Sophomores elected Kappa Sig Foster Hamner president of the class, and he also served on the Senate. Other Kappa Sigmas who added luster to the chapter ' s name this year were George Roberts, Finis Lowe, Allan Durham, Billy Hamner, and Cecil Ramey, all of whom held positions as lab assistants. Brightening the cast of Kollege Kapers were such outstanding entertainers as Sabino Carone, comedian; David Freeman with his boogie-woogie jive; and George Brown, violinist. Scholastically, Epsilon of Kappa Sigma led the entire campus with an extraordinarily high average. Despite the dark days ahead for Greek-letters organizations, Epsilon of Kappa Sigma has laid its roots deep in the Centenary Campus and is looking forward to big accomplishments in the future. kappa Achee, Barton, Bennett, B., Bennett, Z., Bush, Christian, Comegys, Crumley, Dillard, Eatman . . .

Kappa Alphas head lor the fraternity house across the street. Although somewhat handicapped by the loss of members to the armed forces, the Alpha Iota Chapter of Kappa Alpha came through its fifty-second year with banners flying. Under the efficient leadership of President Joe Stephens the chapter was able to maintain the high degree of achievement set by the Kappa Alphas at Centenary for a period of over half a century. The boys across the street had toward the end of the school year, contributed fourteen boys to the Service. To the Army went Burl Sullivan, John Haygood, and Albert Johnson; helping to keep the sea lanes open are Lawrence May, Wilton Guice, and Elmer Maddy; the chapter has two representatives in the Leatherneck corps — Robert Ent and Robert Walker; zooming into the wild blue yonder are James Cotton Robins Centenary ' s Most Athletic Boy, Norman Dillcrrd, and Joe Walters. Two of Alpha Iota ' s favorite sons, versatile Leroy Scott and capable David Barton journeyed last January to the University of North Carolina to become physics instructors. Last May Prexy Stephens, the Centenary Gentleman, and President-elect Roland Achee, Most Versatile Boy, were chosen president and treasurer of the Student Body. Thus began the impressive list of indi- vidual triumphs by Kappa Alphas. In the fall of 1942 Achee was named president of the Junior Class, while James Lee West was chosen to lead the frosh. The four class treasurers were Carroll Goyne, E. W. Harris, James Robins, and Zack Bennett. Stephens led Alpha Chi and served as Editor of the Conglomerate; Bob Eatman was vice-president of Alpha Sigma Pi; Roland Achee served as Master of Ceremonies for Kollege Kapers; Leroy Scott headed Alpha Sigma Chi, was vice-president of Sigma Pi Sigma, and treasurer of Alpha Chi. Leading the band was Drum Major Bob Pugh, who also served as Business Manager of the Conglomerate. In November of ' 42 the KA ' s once again successfully defended the inter-fraternity football championship held by Alpha Iota for nine suc- cessive years. The record of 1943 is one of which all Kappa Alphas are proud. Neither the drastic changes wrought by the Second World War nor the ever-increasing competition among social fraternities was able to dim the glory of the boys across the street at Centenary. lambda chi Biocato, Cline, Collins, Eichelberger, Hardin Owens, R.

Lambda Chi Alpha was founded November 2, 1909, at Boston University. The fraternity now has a member- ship of 19,000, and a total of 1 10 active chapters. Another year of success has been added to the record of Lambda Chi Alpha at Centenary. Although the war has caused much loss in active membership, this has been a year in which Theta Rho Zeta has forged ahead. Under the capable leadership of President Lee Owens, the chapter has gained a good footing. Lee, who is a member of the Student Senate, Chairman of the Inter-fraternity Council, and a member of Who ' s Who, has had fine cooperation and assistance from the other members and officers. With our country at war many loyal Lambda Chis have joined some branch of the Service. Theta Rho Zeta misses Raymond Jolley of the Naval Air Corps, Russell Coleman, also of the Navy, Bill Swyers, Jimmy Bullock, Lt. Gaines Norton, Johnny Brocato, and Lt. Roy Montgomery of the Army. Many prominent Lambda Chis, who are now officers in the Army, have visited the chapter house this past year. All the members are justly proud of Brother Major General James Doolittle, chief of all air operations in the North African thea- ter of war, and commander of the first bombing of Tokyo. At the present, Carroll Osbone is a member of the Navy Reserve, and Lee Owens, Rupert Collins, Dick Norton, Raymon Owens, and Jimmy Cline are in the Army Reserve. In World War I, ninety percent of all Lambda Chi Alphas were in the service of their country. Special appreciation is given to Dr. William Phelps for his help and understanding as Alumnus Advisor. Theta Rho Zeta had a very successful rush week which greatly increased its membership. The social events of the year included a unique Valentine Dance, also various other outings to Cross Lake for boating and fish frys. Among their outstanding pledges is young Richard Norton, Jr., who at the age of four weeks is, they believe, the youngest pledge to wear a pin. He expects to be initiated about 1960.

Peyton Sydney Skinner Norma Stewart Ann Thibodeaux Gladys Tippett Virginia Lil Turner The Pan-Hellenic Council has met with amazing success upon carrying out the Rushing Rules drafted in March, 1941. Due to the necessity of group and individual purchases of war bonds and the scarcity of adequate transportation the Council deemed it necessary to cancel Summer Rushing for the duration of the present war. Though this proved to be a definite hardship, the Council was justly proud of the fact that none of the rules were broken. Serving in its usual capacity of promoting good-will among the social Greek-letter sororities, the Council met many times during the summer and early fall in preparation for the annual Pan-Hellenic Tea held in September, at which the Rushees are introduced to the sorority members. Featured this year was a style show, presenting fall fashions for campus and evening wear. Plans for next fall are already under way, and the Pan-Helleinc Council hopes to have as much success in future years as it has enjoyed this season. PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL The Inter-Fraternity Council, maintainers ol fraternal peace, functioned efficiently this year, planning all rushing rules and recommending to the faculty new rules to aid the fraternities in time of war. Through this organization springs the congeniality and cooperation exhibited by the represented organizations on Centenary ' s Campus. The Council consists of the president and one member from each Greek fraternity on the campus. This year Lee Owens, Lambda Chi Alpha representative, ably filled the position of chairman of this organization.

Later, two more were added to this group as a result of mid-term rushing. Taking active part in Centenary ' s Intramural Sports program were class man- agers Mary F. Peyton, Mary S. New, and Lucille Webb. Lucille also served as secretary of the Sophomore Class while Camille Hendrick was elected secre- tary of the Junior Class. Other honors went to Dorothy Viosca and Martha Stevens, who were selected as beauties, and to Tilly Broussard, who became Miss Scrapheap as a result of Centenary ' s scrap collection drive. Other outstanding Zetas this year were Azalie Webb and Mary Foster Peyton. Beside serving as treasurer for the sorority, Azalie was a member of Who ' s Who, CenCoe, Maroon Jackets, Pan-Hellenic Council, Conglomerate Circula- tion Manager, and Intramural Council. Secretary Mary Foster is treasurer of Maroon Jackets, secretary-treasurer of CenCoe, member of Student Senate, Pan- Hellenic, and Chi Sigma Nu. Beta Iota ' s prexy for the year, Gerry Baird was a member of Who ' s Who, Pan-Hellenic Vice-President, Maroon Jacket member, a CenCoe, and a member of the Student Senate. The Zetas were well represented in honorary organizations and clubs on the campus, having members in both honorary scholastic organizations and in most clubs open to the girls. Beside campus organizations, the Zetas were active in work with the Red Cross, Little Theater, U.S.O., and other organizations of the city. Many roll bandages for the Red Cross and serve that organization as junior hostesses at the U.S.O. Continuing to fill their place on the campus, the Zeta Tau Alpha girls are doing their bit for their country. zeta tau alpha iota gamma Pledges perch on the famous Chi O Bridge. :jft  :  . i. Chi O Cuties enjoy the sun. cm omega As Centenary goes all out for the war effo rt, the Chi Omegas are doing every bit they can to further it. The achievement of which the girls of the X and the Horseshoe are proudest is the purchase of a station wagon for the Red Cross. They have rolled bandages, entertained the boys of Uncle Sam ' s Army at the U.S.O., and served the O.C.D. as air-raid wardens, fire-watchers, and messeng- ers. Last fall fourteen pledges brightened the roster, and with the arrival of mid- term rushing, three more girls went the Chi O way. These pledges wasted no time in setting the pace for the other neophytes of the college, for Henri Horton was elected Kappa Sigma sweetheart, Elizabeth Ann Hudson became vice- president of the Freshman Class, and in January, Jane Pratt was elected Band Sweetheart. Again this year the honor of top campus beauty went to Chi Omega with Presi- dent Ann Thibodeaux adding Miss Centenary of 1943 to her many and im- posing titles. Out of nine girls selected for Who ' s Who, Ann Thibodeaux, Gladys Tippetl:, Jimmye Brown, Betty Gordon Smith, and Charlotte Newsome were the X and Horseshoe, making an enviable record. Scholastically the girls maintained their high average, having Jimmye Brown, Susie Mulkey, Charlotte Newsome, and Betty Gordon Smith in Alpha Chi, and Eleanor Brown, Elizabeth Hudson, and Carolyn Rigby in Alpha Sigma Pi. Chi Omega contributed many honorary and departmental group presidents, such as Betty Gordon Smith, Maroon Jackets; Jeanne Maynard, Chi Sigma Nu; Jimmye Brown, Span- ish Club; Adelaide Dickson, Cenhomec; Gladys Tippett, Intramural Council; and others. Five Chi O ' s were members of the Student Senate, two of this group being executive officers. The office of vice-president of all four classes was held by Chi Omegas, and the girls literally walked away with the Popularity Contest, with Ann Thibo- deaux, Centen ary Lady, Jimmye Brown, Most Versatile Girl, also holding office as Secretary of the Senior Class and Student Body, Susie Mulkey, Most Popu- lar Girl, as well as Chi O Pledge Mother and Miss Kollege Kapers, and Gladys Tippett, Chi Omega Vice-President, Most Athletic Girl. These are but a few of the achievements of the girls of Iota Gamma, but right now they are more concerned with winning the war, so for the duration they will forget the social side and do their part for America. chapter r President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer .

No longer would there be many big social functions, so the secondary purpose of the sorority was in a large measure dis- continued, though the primary purpose flourished as ever. The Sisterhood car- ried on with even greater vitality and directed its energy into more worthwhile channels. Alpha Xi ' s found the Red Cross needing their services, so on Friday afternoons they made a weekly pilgrimage to roll bandages at the local Red Cross Station. To celebrate their national birthday the national organization of Alpha Xi Delta contributed a Mobile Blood Donor Unit to the national Red Cross. Several times during the year they participated on programs for the U.S.O. All this does not mean that there was a let-up in campus activity. Nancy Nance, Nan Dobson, Patricia Harper, Martha Hart, and Helen Jennings served on the Intramural Council, Elaine Henderson was featured in an acrobatic tap dance in Kollege Kapers, and Martha Hart was elected as one of Centenary ' s four beauties. Members elected to Chi Sigma Nu were Sydney Skinner, Nan Dobson, and Kathryn Weems, and Alpha Xi ' s in other honorary organizations were Patricia Harper in Alpha Chi, and Billye Loveladdy in Pi Mu Sigma. One of the most illustrious members of the organization this year was its presi- dent, winsome Martha Hart, who was a CenCoe, a Maroon Jacket, a Pan-Hel- lenic Council member, a Student Senate member, and listed in Who ' s Who. Vice-President Billye Loveladdy, aside from being well-known in the Science Department of the college, was elected as secretary for the Dormitory Council. Jean Gibson, who wrote minutes for the sorority, served as President of the Pan-Hellenic Council, President of the Dormitory, and was a member of the Student Senate and the Maroon Jackets. So wartime has bound the Alpha Xi Sisters more closely together and they have found time for war work, campus activities and the Little Brown House, hoping for a future that contains better prospects for the full college life. alpha xi delta Eagan, Hooper, Sutton, Flanks, Lieber, Breithaupt, Lunny, Riggs, Terry, Autrey.

In giving a Saddle Shoe Stomp, an informal afternoon affair, a new note was struck in dances on the campus. Although their project of decorating the meeting room in the SUB was postponed until apres la guerre, new pins were designed and ordered. Several suppers were given along with the annual installation banquet. In spite of small membership, quality was the word for Aufait. Prexy Kathryn Hooper presided capably while being Maroon Jacket Vice-Presi- dent and a Chi Sigma Nu member. Carolyn Lunny found time between presenting programs to the Aufaits to hold office in Alpha Chi, Sigma Pi Sigma, and to be a member of the Student Senate, Who ' s Who, Maroon Jackets, and the Dormitory Council. Shirley Eagan, secretary, was also an officer in Alpha Sigma Chi and on the Dormitory Council, while Treasurer Aline Breithaupt held an important position in Cenhomec and was a Maroon Jacket. Harriet Lieber was a Kappa Sigma Sweet- heart, on the Yoncopin Staff, in the Student Senate, and in Alpha Sigma Pi. Although the sponsors, Mrs. A. R. Campbell and Mrs. Bryant Davidson, were all out for the war effort, their interest in Aufait did not falter. In wartime or in peace, Aufait ' s high and democratic ideals are a unique part of Centenary.

The organization is composed of Junior and Senior under-graduates who excel scholastically. Meetings are held only for specific pur- poses, such as initiations. This year, as customary, Alpha Chi conducted a Chapel program and presented an engraved leather notebook to the most outstanding freshman of the year, Richard Prindle. Since the installation of the Louisiana Alpha Chapter at Centenary in 1925, Alpha Chi has stood for a goal to the upperclassmen in their pursuit of knowledge, and a beacon to underclassmen, remind- ing all Alpha Sigma Pi members to maintain their high scholastic records throughout their four college years, and others to raise their grades so that they, too, may qualify for a bid to this most honorable of honorary organizations.

The requisites for membership, which lasts through the sophomore year, are that the candidate be of the Freshman Class and that he have a high scholastic average. This year Alpha Sigma Pi, like so many of the other campus organizations, has de- voted less time to its activities in order to help in the war effort. The meetings and initiations in the homes of members and the annual chapel program took place as usual, with the absence only of the par- ties. Alpha Sigma Pi is a goal set for the fresh- man. In striving to attain it, he becomes aware of the merits of scholarship and wisdom. Brown, Carone, Conqueror, Cox . . . DeMoss, Dixon, Eatman, Freedman . . .

After the depar- ture of Leroy Scott, Carolyn Lunny was elected president; Alex May, vice-presi- dent; and Shirley Eagan, secretary. That the war has not been without effect even upon such an organization as this has shown by the commando tactics em- ployed by Treasurer Hamner in collection of dues. A unique feature of Alpha Sigma Chi is its imaginative initiations. The bewilder- ed neophytes, after successfully complet- ing the colorful and strenuous tests of brain and brawn, are formally received into the fraternity. Requirements for mem- bership are that a student manifest a gen- uine interest in chemistry and maintain a C-plus average in his advanced chem- istry courses, as well as general C-plus average. The members attempt at all times to convey to the lay mind the proper physical impression of a chemist — one who smokes a foul-smelling pipe, pos- sesses a strong affinity for black coffee (when available), and who is willing at any time to converse upon any subject, ad infinitum. Sponsored by Dr. Entrikin and Dr. Thayer, Alpha Sigma Chi has increased its mem- bership greatly this year, and several of the members have become student affil- iates of the American Chemical Society. It is the desire of the organization that they shall be able to continue an active exist- ence, as there was never a time in the his- tory of our country when the study of chemistry is so essential as now. PI MU SIGMA Bush, Crawford, Dienst, Harris . . . Hattaway, Jacobson, Loveladdy , Pomeroy. Pi Mu Sigma, an honorary fraternity for premedical students, is one of the oldest organizations on the campus. Founded in 1925, by a group of students who were too impatient to wait for medical school for discussing and delving into medical subjects, it has flourished through the years and from its membership have gone large num- bers to take their places in the medical profession. Any student who plans to enter one of the several fields of medicine is eligible for membership, but to be admitted into the group he must qualify by attaining a high standard of scholarship. Each in- itiate undergoes a solemn ritual as part of his acceptance into the fraternity, and before becoming a full-fledged member he must pre- sent a theme of fifteen hundred words on some interesting phase of medicine. At the meetings, which are held bimonthly, the fraternity may be treated to interesting programs by local doctors who generously give their time to talk medicine with the group, or to the showing of surgical films, or to the presenting of papers or round table discus- sions by the members of the group. Faculty sponsor of Pi Mu Sigma is Miss Mary Warters. OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary -Treasurer MEMBERS Tom Bush Loyce Crawford Frank Dienst Nina Gray John Hardin E. W.

Maddox Alex May Katy Oxford George Roberts Leroy Scott Louis Smith Gordon Wilkinson Quitman Williams Founded as a local honorary organiza- tion at Davidson College, Davidson, North Carolina, in 1921, Sigma Pi Sigma has expanded until now it is truly national in scope and influence, with thirty-three chapters well distributed among the lead- ing collegiate institutions of the country. Today Sigma Pi Sigma is well recog- nized by the leaders in physics for its effective accomplishments of its objectives. Delta chapter at Centenary was the fourth national chapter founded, and continued successfully for several years, after which it became inactive. In 1941, under the spirited leadership of Dr. F. E. Lowance, head of the Physics Department and an alumnus of the society, the chapter was reorganized. Membership is limited to those students taking advanced physics courses. Other qualifications include high scholarship and a manifested interest in physics. This year Sigma Pi Sigma lost six of its staunch members: Dr. Lowance to Georgia Tech; Barton, Scott, and Williams to grad- uate school; and Barre and Destiche to the armed forces. Sponsored by Dr. C. D. Keen, the society has from time to time presented programs open to those interested in physical science. CHI SIGMA NU Middiebrooks, Peyton, Moreneaux, Brown, Franks, Skinner, Stewart, Maynard. OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Jeanne Maynard Jimmye Brown Margaret Owens The purposes of Chi Sigma Nu are to promote a high standard of scholarship and to develop professional interests. This educational fraternity was founded in 1937 for the benefit and the encourage- ment of prospective teachers. To qualify for membership a student must be interested in teaching, be above sophomore standing, and have a B scholastic average in college. The impressive initiation ceremony is symbolic of the search for truth and light. Outstanding educational leaders are invited to meet with the mem- bers and discuss vital issues in the field of teaching. A distinct con- tribution was made to the organization this year by Dr. Otha King Miles who discussed the possibilities of audio-visual aids in the im- provement of instruction.

An effort was made to acquaint the members with certain phases of work that could be done by a home-economist to promote war effort, preserve national morale, and pave the way for an in- telligent solution to post-war problems. This was based upon the fact that the right war job for any woman is the job she can do best. The details of the program took into account the information needed by home-economics trained women. Since local, state, and federal governments are hiring home-economists as teachers, public health workers, nurses, research workers, testers of foods and textiles, radio workers, and various other services, Cenhomec has proved very useful.

Its present sponsors are Dean and Mrs. R. E. Smith. The meetings are held every Friday. To be a member of the Ministerial Club one must be a ministerial student or study- ing for some definite work in the field of the church and religion. In past years, the Ministerial Club has functioned as an organization to promote religious activities on the campus and in the dormitory. Since the Committee on Religious Activities is serving in this capacity, the club has continued as a fra- ternal or professional group, emphasizing that its members cooperate with other or- ganizations. Several of the members have served as pastors in near-by rural communities. Among the honorary members cf the Ministerial Club are President Cline, Dean Hardin, Bishop Hoyt M. Dobbs, Dr. A. M. Serex, Dr. A. M. Freeman, and all the Methodist pastors of Shreveport. Allen, Branton, Crawford . . . Eubank, Harrison, Kilpatrick Oliphint, Pomeroy, Spitzkeit.

The program agreed upon in- cluded the foundation work for a future Commerce Club Library, the outline of periodic round table discussions on topics of interest in the commercial world, and the presentation of at least one speaker during the year. With the splendid help and cooperation of the college and Professor See, advisor to this group, lumber was obtained with which to build the shelves for the library. Members of the club volunteered their time and service to constructing these shelves, and the finished products are on display in the Commerce Building. Speaker for the year was Mr. R. B. Mc- Pherson, Vice-President of the First Na- tional Bank of this city, who presented an interesting lecture on the subject, State- ment Analysis. Members attending re- ceived a new concept of this field of busi- ness. During the year several members an- swered the call to service, among which were John Brocato, William Singlust, Henry Winegeart, and William Eichelber- ger. Others are in various Reserve groups. Because of the definite need for men and women acquainted with the work which is studied by this group, the Commerce Club feels that it can look to the future for many more years of success.

Seated: Meadows, Jones, M., Jones, J., EUwood, Tregre, Peyton, Oxford, Fullilove, Yancey. Not restricted to those students now studying the Spanish language, the Spanish Club has this year attempted to broaden its scope. Its members realize the necessity of a knowledge of Spanish-speaking people, their language and customs, for a stronger alliance with Central and South America during this international struggle for freedom. The aim is, therefore, to strengthen relations with our neighbors to the South. Programs on the Latin American countries as to their present status have been presented by Caroline Fullilove, program chairman. The annual Christmas party had to be discontinued, since many of the officers and members were engaged in defense activities, and since most banquets and parties are being discontinued for the duration. Nevertheless, Mr. R. E. White, the sponsor of the club, presented an interesting discussion of a Mexican Christmas sea- son. Other unusual programs presented included speakers on Spanish and Mexican authors and artists, as Cervantes, de Vega, Goya, El Greco, Rivera, and Orozco. Jimmye Brown presided over the meetings as president, assisted by Martha Stevens, vice-president, and Allan Durham, secretary-treas- urer. It is the desire of this organization that much time in the future will be given to the study of our Spanish-speaking friends of the Americas, in order that the United States have a firmer and more lasting friendship with them.

The name was derived from the first three letters in Centenary and the first three letters in Co-education. Ten outstand- ing Shreveport girls are chosen from each sorority, the one requirement being that they are upperclassmen. The first and most important purpose is to break down the wall of antagonism and create a more friendly spirit among the sororities on the Centenary Campus. The secondary purpose is social, including parties and dances especially during the summer months, thus affording a means of contact for the members during vaca- tion. The annual Reception and Program Dance is a CenCoe tradition, and other note- worthy events sponsored every year are the Christmas Luncheon for the members, the Retiring President ' s Luncheon, an in- formal dance during the summer, and if possible, one social function during each month of the summer vacation. At the end of each school year CenCoe presents a cup to the outstanding senior member. Selection is based upon co- operation with and loyalty to her sorority, to CenCoe, to the Faculty, and to her Alma Mater. m g® 8 ' A.B.COX ' 41 , GL ENN LEOPABD ' 37 30ET.LEW1S.1B.-34 EA BL DAVIS NOLftN CHABLES  0 ■Or e=?- Graduates known to be on active duty April 1. 1943 are listed. FEATURE MAY FETE Centenary ' s May Fete is a tradition sponsored by the Athletic Department. Discontinued this year because of the War, it formerly consisted of a May Court, composed of Junior and Senior girls, and the crowning of a Queen elected by the Student Body. Entertainment for the May Queen and her Court last year followed the Allied Countries theme. Dances by the Physical Education classes dressed in costumes of the various Allied Nations was followed by a military drill presented by girls from Byrd and Fair Park High Schools of Shreveport. May Queen of 1942 was Miss Lou Dell Liston of Shreveport. FOUNDER ' S DAY May 2, 1942, was highlighted by cam- paign speeches and posters. Flattering attention was given to the candidates who presented both serious and comical speeches. Students brought all the comforts of home along with their picnic lunches. In order to celebrate the found- ing of Centenary College, the Student Senate sponsors a pic- nic every year. The school pro- claims a holiday, and students and faculty members alike pack a lunch and hike to a nearby park. The morning pro- gram consists of campaign speeches presented by candi- dates for the Student Body Offi- cers election, and in 1942 the students enjoyed group singing. In the afternoon, a baseball game between the faculty and the senior men is the main fea- ture, followed by inter-fraternity games and inter-class games.

Radio is important to ilyers. Class hours were long. Doubtless, few realize that Centenry College and Badgett Flying School started in the fall of 1939 to play a major roll in the training of pilots for the Army Air Forces. At this time under the Civilian Pilot Training Program flight training was being offered to anyone interested. Centenary acted as Ground Contractor and Badgett Flying School as Flight Contractor, with Claude Hamel as coordinator. Since that time approxi- mately 400 trainees have graduated from the four courses offered, Primary, Secondary, Cross Country, and Instructor. These boys have enlisted in the Army and Navy Air Forces and are now serving as Flight In- structors, Ferry Pilots, and Combat Pilots, and all are playing major roils on the several war fronts of the world. These trainees are housed and fed at Centenary College where they are also given their ground training. Actual flight instruction is received at the Badgett School. Their ground courses consist of mathematics, physics, Civil Air Regulations, Navigation, Radio Code, Military and Physical Training, Aircraft Identification, Military Science and Discipline, Meteorology and General Servicing of Aircraft, and a flight course of 35 to 40 hours. These young men are all anxious to do their part in helping to make the United Air Forces the finest in the world. Instructor explains a turn to trainee.

Speaker for this event was Major General Campbell B. Hodges (R), President of Louisiana State Univer- sity, whose timely advice was especially appropri- ate since ninety-five per cent of the men from this class went into the Armed Forces soon after gradu- ation. Following the address, President Cline, assist- ed by Deans Campbell and Hardin, conferred the degrees and honors. William K. Graham, president of the class, led the Senior Pledge ceremony, and the audience rose as the Centenary Choir led in singing the Alma Mater. Senior Alumni luncheon attracts large crowd. William Graham receives diploma from Dr. Cline. These live Commerce Department grads are now in the service. V SENIOR PLAY, 1942 THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST By Oscar Wilde CAST Butler Clint Teacle Algernon Ernest Carter Ernest George Edwards Gwendolyn Mable Boddie Miss Prism Bobbye Wilson Lady Bracknell Gladys Tippett Reverend Chausable Carl Tastum Maid Dorothy Luse Cecile Jessica Harris Produced and Directed by John Wray Young Technical Director Margaret Mary Young The Senior Play of 1942 was presented in the Centenary Open Aair Theatre, starring seniors Clint Teacle, Ernest Carter, Mable Boddie, and Bobbye Wilson. The theme was a play on words due to confusion of names and had an English setting. Jack, later revealed to be Ernest, loved Gwendolyn and proposed to marry her, but her mother, the severe Lady Bracknell, objected. She interrupted the proposal scene, much to the discomfort of Jack and to the amusement of the audience. Jack told Gwendolyn that he has a twin named Ernest, and discovered that she hated the name. His ward, Cecile, had fallen in love with the name, and wished to marry Ernest. When Algernon, Jack ' s friend, came to visit him, Cecile believed him to be the twin brother, and fell in love with him. Romantic humor was added when the Reverend Chausable fell in love with the elderly Miss Prism. Suddenly Miss Prism found it necessary to reveal that when Jack was a baby, she, his nurse, had kidnapped him and brought him up herself. She also revealed that he was the son of a noble family which had named him John Ernest. The family pleased Lady Bracknell and neither Gwendolyn nor Cecile minded the change in names. Thus the play ended happily. The following advertisers have demonstrated their confidence and goodwill by investing in the Yoncopin.

In past years there was a big parade for almost every home game at Centenary. Of course, after each parade there was a shortage of members attending classes due to blistered feet, aching limbs and shot nerves. Take Carolyn Lunny ' s accident during the lone parade of this season. A stop-sign was placed in the middle of Texas Street. Carolyn decided to ignore it. The stop-sign won. In hopes that the Maroon Jackets will soon be able to present some snappy Yoncopin. drills in parades, we dedicate to them one great big Drink (CCO r TRADE-MARK REG. 1 1. S. PAT. OFF.

Probably the most overworked person on the campus, Brother Woods has found time to aid in many campus activities. The Reverend is very well known and yet is not conceited at all, having only one pet hate. This, we regret to say, is women. With, of course, an exception or two!

As one person, the students of the college held their breath, as the occasion demanded. Only dire results could come from such a meeting, and students gathered in small groups to whisper the situation over. At last the verdict was announced, and two prominent groups on the campus were broken-hearted. The Lambda Chi ' s, in sponsoring a fish fry on Cross Lake, had cooked themselves as well as the fish, and they were rather glum, not to mention the brethren of Kappa Alpha. The Lambda Chi ' s will hence- forth be sporting mourning rags until the college opens in September, 1943, so we send Yoncopins, as they go well with black.

Of the three social fraternities on the campus, they alone escaped without harm. Needless to mention, their beaming faces on the following morning were in direct contrast to those of the Lambda ' s and the KA ' s, and when asked about the situation, they attributed their good fortune to past experiences, to their youthful innocence, and to House- mother Metcalf. Yoncopins to the Kappa Sigs and orchids to their Housemother.

SOUTHWESTERN GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY Now as Ever Quality Is the Outstanding Characteristic of Merchandise from Heame ' s HIARMi-, THE LIFE OF A PLEDGE During Rush Week, sororities and fraternities do not include in their program a blow-by-blow account of pledge life. As though having to muss one ' s beautiful curls with wearing a Freshman Cap were not enough, the social organizations really make their neophytes at home by handing around brooms, mops and dustpans immediately following the pledging ceremony. Nevertheless, they love it, accord- ing to a census taken recently. Little details such as Kangaroo Courts, lemon sessions and Fun Week are forgotten, and the pledges make it their special duty to see that C entenary does not forget that they are on the campus. FEET Every day, every year, every century — well, at least for 119 years — feet have trod the Campus. More feet, going to classes, or more likely to the SUB, stumbling slowly in to see the Dean, or skipping from the Post Office; feet ambling along the brick walk to the Arts Building, splashing down to South Hall in the rain; many feet all doing something important — and someone takes a picture of these four feet doing nothing but holding two people up!

There is nothing like a friendly game of bridge, the Lambda Chi ' s always say. Often not more than three members are maimed during one session — this accounts for the acute shortage of members toward the first of the year. Guns, knives and other implements of destruc- tion are checked at the door. Many students other than the Lambda Chi ' s have taken up the game and, like Fred Flannagan, who frequently admits that he knows absolutely nothing about the game, are slowly learning how to play.
