Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1945 volume:

a 7 Published by the Students of CENTENARY COLLEGE Shreveport, Louisiana VVHEN the com placent existence of peace is shattered by war, man must summon all his knowledge to cope with the inevitable problems which arise. Wisdom, his tool in re- building the world and molding a better civilization, must be practical and scholarly. Centenary, as other colleges throughout the land, has modified and reshaped its curric- ulum so that its students, who are to take their places in the life of a na- tion just a few years hence, will be ready to shoulder the task before them. The training of cadets for the Army Air Forces, the preparation of young women for the nursing pro- fession, as well as the training of men and women for technical posi- tions in war industries — these con- tributions are small as compared to the accomplishments and sacrifices of those engaged in actual combat. In tribute to a year of service and fidelity, the 1945 Yoncopin presents a record of Centenary ' s achieve- ments as seen thru the camera ' s eye. Order of Books The College The Activities and Features The Organizations I Below: • Smith • French • Phelps N RECOGNITION of the years of service, generosity, courage and fidelity of Dr. Katherine Jackson French, Professor W. G. Phelps, and Dean R. E. Smith, the Centenary College Board of Trustees voted these three beloved professors the rank of Professor Emeritus. Dr. French, Professor Phelps and Dean Smith have engraved their names upon the hearts of all con- nected with Centenary College. To the great and adventurious search for truth they have brought those qualities of heart, mind and spirit which are the essence of education. Because of their paramount pop- ularity, sound advice and profound interest in student affairs, we salute these three who are the epetomy of those ideals and principles which characterize Centenary College. jjkere Uknstian Ooucation 3s a C raait ion Annie Haynes Hall, beautiful academic building, a memorial to the late Mrs. James Buchanan Haynes of Shreveport whose family during recent years have been outstanding benefactors of the college. President Joe J. Mickle, A.B., M.A., a Texan by birth, as- sumed the Presidency of Cen- tenary College in May, 1945. A graduate of Southern Methodist University, he took his masters degree at Columbia University and also studied in the Colum- bia School of Business Admin- istration receiving a certified public accountant ' s certificate in New York State. He has been prominent in educational work for twenty years. For eleven years he was business manager of Kwansei Gaquin University, an American sponsored institution in Kobe, Japan. Since 1941 he has been executive secretary of the Foreign Missions Conference of North America, with headquarters in New York City. President Mickle is a member of the Speakers Group of the United Nations Association and has lectured in many col- leges and universities. Original cornerstone showing date oi the founding of The Oldest College West of the Mississippi River, then known as College of Louisiana, later named Centenary College of Louisiana in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Methodism. Centenary is today one of the outstanding educational institutions affiliated with the Methodist Church. For more than twenty years, Dean John A. Hardin has aided and encouraged the students of Centenary and has been an inspiration and a guide to the finer things of life. To him each student is an in- dividual, with a distinct VISITING personality and initiative, to be cultivated and directed. He has demonstrated his ability to in- spire students to the best ef- forts of which they are capable. The annual Commencement parade oi faculty, honored guests, and Seniors.

Modern methods of instruction used at Centenary include motion pictures, as demonstrated by Dr. Otha King Miles, di- rector of visual education. The Arts building houses the Administrative de- partment and one of the college libraries. ON THE CENTENARY CAMPUS Centenary maintains a main library and two depart- mental libraries; each has spacious and attractive read- ing rooms and modern stacks for the more than twenty- five thousand volumes available for student reading and research. A collection of rare, original Audubon prints is available to art students, and a number of special collec- tions on religion and history are maintained for research. Along the beautiful campus walks, students meet new friends and quickly sense the traditionally friendly spirit of Centenary. A piano quartet at practice. Don Brown, head of the Art department, paints a Southern scene. Centenary ' s departments of music, art, speech and dramatics with their affiliated organizations, the choral clubs, orchestra, band, and art club offer unusual oppor- tunities for students of music and the arts. The Department of Music is a member of the National Association of Schools of Music. Students chart business progress. Centenary ' s School of Aeronautics in cooperation with Badgett Flying School offers a complete, government approved, course in aviation, including both ground school and pilot training. Commerce and Economics are studied against a background of business op- erations carried on in metropolitan Shreveport. Small classes assure each student the individual attention which is needed to help him attain the fullest development of his special abilities in his chosen field of specialization, whether it be accounting, statistics, ad- vertising, or banking. Centenary ' s modern Home Economics department offers thorough training in home management, food selection and preparation, clothing and textiles, in- terior decoration, nutrition and health, and teacher training. IN THE CLASSROOMS AND LABORATORIES The departments of Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Math- nical positions in industry. The excellence of the pre- ematics, and Physics and Engineering include in their medical, pre-dental, pre-engineering and nursing pro- programs courses leading to graduate study and tech- grams are recognized by leading professional schools.

Technical Courses Attract Many Jackson Hall, newest campus building, houses the science department ' s well-equipped laboratories, modern class rooms and the excellent scientific library. Students of accounting, candidates for C.P.A. cer- tificates, are guests of the Shreveport Chapter of the Louisiana Certified Public Accountants Society at their annual banquet held on the campus. Cadet Nurses (right) have received 18 weeks of training at Centenary and are ready to report to one of Shreve- port ' s hospitals for clinical practice. Centenary ' s evening school technical courses, offered by the College faculty and university trained technic- ians drawn from local industries, attract business women, business men, recent high school graduates, and veterans from the armed services. All requirements for a degree may be met through evening courses. Truly reminiscent of the Old South, so interwoven with the history and traditions of Centenary, is Colonial Hall, the girls dormitory, where culture, refinement and beauty prevail. IN THE Students who live in the women ' s dormitories are un- der the sponsorship of Mrs. A. R. Campbell, Dean of Women, and the resident hostesses, who assist the girls in planning -wholesome, well-rounded social, recrea- tional, and study programs. . ... . . -,,. «....„.,„; ,„,.,„ ,. The spacious, home like par- lors of the college dormito- ries provide an ideal setting for receptions and other so- cial affairs which make up an important part of college life. Here at Shreveport Hall, another modern dormi- tory for girls, are held many delightful social affairs for the resident girls and their friends. COLLEGE DORMITORIES Meeting new friends — enjoying pleasant informal gatherings in the recreation rooms — chatting with your roommate — going to the Sub for the mail — all of these go to make a happy day at the dorm. ' ■ _ : _ _ -i ; : ; yMMi ] §3i 1 Iff n Sports For All The Physical Education building, center of athletic activities at Centenary, houses separate departments for men and women, with modern equip- ment for physical education classes and games. Centenary is justly proud of her physical education and intra-mural sports program for men and women students. Designed to make sports available for all, under trained supervisors, it has been most successful. Contests and games between classes, fraternities, sororities, and other college groups provide healthful recreation and entertainment for the students. Archery, basketball, football, golf, tennis, volley ball, and other games provide a year around program of sports to meet the needs of all students. . £ •. ' ' .

Campus Activities At Centenary College life on the campus, as pictured on these pages, embraces dramatics, honorary scholastic and professional societies, choral clubs, student publications, public speak- ing, orchestra, six National Greek letter fraternities and sororities, and other student activities. The attractive sorority and fraternity houses, shown on the opposite page, and the Student Union Building provide the setting for many interesting social activities. Students of many religious faiths belong to the Centenary Religious Association, an or- ganization having as its pur- pose the promotion of religious activities on the campus. 1944- ' 45 officers shown at the left are: Miss Melba Loveall, secre- tary; Miss Mary K. Johnson, vice-president; Miss Dannie Duerson, president; Andy Fore- man, treasurer; Miss Doreen Eachus, reporter. CENTENARY TRADITIONS The Senior Day chapel ser- vice, a tradition of many years standing at Centenary, features the President ' s ad- dress and the announcement of honors and awards. Centenary is proud of the accomplishments of its sons and daughters, and through the years has watched with pride as members of many families have returned to the campus to carry on the traditions of their fathers, grandfathers and other members of the college family of generations ago. Representing one of the school ' s distinguished families is Miss Elizabeth Houston, ' 44, (left) with the violin and Centenary diploma which belonged to John Houston, a member of her family who attended Centenary in 1843. John Houston, a first cousin of the great Texas general, was a descendant of the Carters of Virginia, who figured prom- inently in early Centenary history as alumni, trustees, and a college president. The Co Centenary College, in cooperation with the Army Air Forces Training Command, carried on a program of pre pre-flight training from March, 1943 to June, 1944. During this period of 16 months, more than 1500 aviation cadets received academic and technical training under the direction of the College fac- ulty. General N. B. Harbold, Army Air Forces Training Com- mand, presented the Air Forces Certificate of Service to Paul M. Brown, Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Professor W. G. Banks at the conclusion of the program. BOARD OF TRUSTEES Officers Chairman Paul M. Brown, Jr. V ice-Chairman J. B. Atkins B. H. Andrews J. B. Atkins Lamar Baker Chris Barnette M. L. Bath S. H.

Hardin, A.B., A.M. One of the fondest memories in the college life of every Centenary student is the genuine interest and deep understanding of Dean John A. Hardin. Possessing all those qualities characteristic of a dean, his years of service and wise council have won the affection of all those who come in contact with his quiet, yet magnetic personality. Civic and religious leader, faculty mem- ber and educator, Dean Hardin is primarily the stu- dent ' s friend. DEAN OF WOMEN Mrs. A. R. Campbell, A.B., A.M. One of the truly prominent members of the faculty is Mrs. A. R. Campbell. A lady of charm and graciousness, her every effort is to aid the students as they tread the path of learning. As Dean of Women and Associate Professor of English, her interest in the welfare and success of the stu- dents has won their respect and admiration. Assistant to the President Well-known to every student on the campus is Professor W. Gerard Banks, who now holds the responsible posi- tion of Assistant to the President. Hard-working and efficient, Mr. Banks has been missed in the classroom since he has been forced to devote all his time and energies to the business af- fairs of the college. Through his ver- satility and fidelity, Mr. Banks has con- tributed to the outstanding record of Centenary College this year.

Gracious hostess of the new girl ' s dormitory, spacious Shreveport Hall, is Mrs. Clara Cox. Well-known to all students are the charming secretaries, Miss Jo Woody and Mrs. Brown. Miss Amanda Wilson holds the position of Reg- istrar and instructor in shorthand. Jackson Hall has been the scene of much ac- tivity this year, for in addition to the regular courses and labs, the installation of the Cadet Nurse Training Program on the campus has made it a beehive of activity.

LANGUAGES BIBLE ART Don Brown, assistant professor of Art, is a mem- ber of the Southern States Art League and the New Group of Southern Artists. His work is shown in many important galleries in the United States and in several private collections in Europe.

DRAMA Those students who wish to go further in the field of drama are under the expert instruction of Margaret Mary and John Wray Young, in- structors in Drama. Mr. Young has long been recognized as a leader in his field, currently directing the activities of the Shreveport Little Theatre, which has been acclaimed as one of the more progressive of the Little Theatres of this country. HOME ECONOMICS Centenary maintains a thorough and complete Home Economics department, featuring courses in Home Making, Dietetics and Clothing.

Activities dncl Features Centenary College, in cooperation with the five Shreve- port hospitals, launched the first college-hospitals Cadet Nurse training pr ram in the Nation in September, 1944. More than two hundred and thirty Cadet Nurse trainees completed their eighteen weeks preliminary college train- ing and entered the hospitals for clinical practice during the year.

Joan Gibbons STUDENT SENATE Each year the Student Senate at Centenary becomes more and more efficient in its task of handling student body matters, and this year ' s group proved no exception to the rule. Being formed from a group of unusually con- genial officers and members, the Student Sen- ate of 1944-45 has been able to make rapid progress in many fields. Their prime project, and the one of which they are most proud, is the campus beautification program, which they sponsored, working in cooperation with the faculty and college. The long-hoped-for idea of a workable and success- ful honor system was discussed many times. Dr. Moreland, President of Randolph Macon Men ' s College, met with the group when he vis- ited the college and was most helpful in his suggestions and information. The Student Senate also greatly contributed to the continu- ance of school spirit and friendliness by plan- ning monthly dances. Under the able leadership of President Bill Roberts; Vice-President, Reggie Harris; Co-ed Vice-President, Betty Blaxton; Secretary, Joan Gibbons, and Treasurer, Forbes Morrow, the twelfth session of the Student Senate has proved itself very successful. Though its ranks were broken many times by the call to the Colors, it has traveled far in reaching its ulti- mate goal. Alvord, Babington, Blaxton, Clay . . .

Bursting with pride and chuckling fiendishly in re- lief, we, the staff, thrust into the eager hands of the students of Centenary College this year ' s volume of the Yoncopin. Through endless days of copy paper, shortages and priorities, followed by nights of worry, work and wit, the noble band of students bearing the impressive title of staff members have strug- gled to complete their task. The office in the Student Union Building, Commerce Building — any spot where copy paper might be spread, have been the scenes of meditation, relaxation and hibernation. Seriously, it is the sincere hope that you get as much pleasure from the results of our labor as we have gained in its publication. May this record of your life at Centenary be a constant reminder of those things which unite to make college life such a worthwhile thing. The . . .

Breathlessly (at least that is the belief of the staff) the Centenary student body awaits the news and gossip published bi-monthly in the issues of the Conglomerate, the college newspaper. Under the able and consistent editorship of Carolyn Ciay, the copy beat the deadline — and the students are seen sighing around the campus in agony and relief. Staff meetings are called for every Monday, the attendance being extremely varied with a ratio of 40 to 3. Vance Mason, with his efficiency as business manager, kept the Conglomerate out of the red and on the press. To create more college spirit the Conglomerate sponsored polls conducted by Bonneau Peters, Jr., which resulted in such streamers as — Donkey Brays As GOP Elephant Sobs and Dirt, Davidson, Der Bingle Win Poll. Features appearing in the editions of the paper are Sporting Highlights written by sportsman Lonard Wells; Casts and Forecasts, the opinions of Danny Lincove; Harriet Schram ' s One View ; and such columns as Conglomeration, Letters To the Editor, and Dorm Dames Dish Dirt of which, for various and sundry rea- sons, the authors remain anonymous. The MAROON Betty Blaxton Carolyn Clay The Maroon Jackets have just completed their fourteenth year on the Centenary campus, and through the .years have maintained a shining record of service and integrity. Founded in 1931 with the aid of Dean Campbell, the or- ganization limits its membership to twelve. Three girls are chosen from each sorority and the non-Greek group, Aufait, on the basis of scholarship, character, leadership, and appearance. Membership in the organization is a goal toward which every Centenary girl strives. These twelve girls, known as the official hostesses of the school, may be recognized instantly by their white uni- forms topped by the familiar maroon and white jackets. The duties of a Maroon Jacket are many. They serve as guides for bewildered freshmen on Registration Day, and on Fridays they may be seen acting as ushers at student assembly. They form an official body for all visitors to the college, and serve at every college function. Greeting new arrivals on the Campus. Donning the Jacket. Front oi the Sub. JACKETS Centenary ' s official hostesses — Our Maroon Jackets. Being a Maroon Jacket is not all work, for there are always several social functions given in their honor during the year. In the fall, the girls were entertained with a barbecue on Cross Lake by their honorary member, Mr. Ray Williams, and in February, Mrs. Campbell entertained with a luncheon.

Centenary College is justifiably proud of that group of boys and girls composing the College Choir. Under the capable direction of A. C. Voran, the choir has been most popular this year, filling many engagements in Shrev e- port as well as nearby cities. Alvin Voran, Director Ever in demand, the choir found itself very busy giving performances both locally and out-of-town. Included in its numerous local engagements were several appearances on the Chapel programs at the College. Highlighting these is the beautiful and impressive candle-lighting service which is held each year in commemoration of the Yuletide Season. This program is one of the most impressive of all those traditions which embody those things which typify Centenary at its best. Last year, the members of the Choir gathered at Camp Caney Lake the week preceding the opening of school for seven days of relaxation and work. Most any hour of the day the warb- lings of the Choir could be heard across the lake punctuated by the familiar voice of Director Voran giving instructions. All have agreed that the week spent eating, sleeping and working was so profitable that they plan to make it an annual affair. The members of the Choir would like to take this opportunity to thank Cheesy Voran for his loyalty and inspiring leader- ship which has made the group the organization it is today. This year was an eventful one for Cheesy, with the arrival of Cheesy, Jr., and his happiness and pride is shared by all the members of the Choir. Each and every one of the group is looking forward to greater things in the future under the expert guidance of their director. The CHOIR DORMITORY COUNCIL The executive powers which regulate the lives of the girls of Shreveport Hall are vested in the Dormitory Council. This body, composed of the executive officers, a representative from each class, and the advisors, Mrs. Arthur Campbell, Dean of Women, and Mrs. Clara Cox, hostess of the dormitory. The Council meets quite frequently at the dormitory to discuss any problems or business affairs arising which concern the occupants of the dormitory. It is the purpose of this organization to promote good conduct, transact business pertaining to its members, pro- mote the interests of its members, and decree and enforce those rules composing its government. Always it will endeavor to uphold the ideals and traditions of Centenary College. The complexity of the change of dormitories at the beginning of the year as well as the intricate system of trans- portation and ever changing bus schedules have presented interesting questions before the council. The building on Haynes campus which now is the home of the dorm girls has been the scene of much activity and pleasure. This year, the Council was very active in social affairs, having several open houses for friends of the college, the faculty, and officers of Barksdal e Field. The traditional Christmas party was a great success. The gifts ex- changed by the girls were later given to one of the city ' s institutions, that way giving others pleasure. Such func- tions as these add greatly to the friendliness and happiness which prevails in Shreveport Hall and the Alma Mater.

Organizations Z E TA TAU ALPHA ] AT This year has been an eventful one for Zeta Tau Alpha. Beginning its existence as the first national sorority on the campus in 1927, and maintaining its position as the only international sorority on the campus, Beta Iota chapter joins the Fraternity in celebrating its forty-seventh anniversary. This fall, seventeen wonderful neophytes were added to the roster and immediately they claimed prominence in campus affairs. Lei Hamner and Mary Jean Fauria were elected to Alpha Sigma Pi, while Gretchen Elston and Babs Lyon were initiated into Alpha Sigma Chi. In the annual class elections Joan Gibbons was elected to serve the Juniors as Vice-President and Marjorie Jones as Secretary. The Seniors chose Dorothy Viosca Hall as their Vice-Prexy, and Mary Smith New as Secretary. Mary Smith New served Pan-Hellenio as Secretary, and claims membership in Who ' s Who, Student Senate, the Spanish Club, CenCoe, and Maroon Jackets. Rising to unmistakable campus prominence in just two years, is Katherine Turner— winning such coveted honors as Editorship of the Yoncopin, President of Alpha Sigma Pi, membership in Who ' s Who, Student Senate, Pan- Hellenic Council, Intramural Council, and the Conglomerate. Zeta is particularly proud of Martha Stevens, President of Chi Sigma Nu, Vice-President of the Maroon Jackets, campus beauty for three years, this fall chosen by the faculty to represent Centenary at the Harvest Festival; and Joan Gibbons, Secretary of the Student Body and Intra-mural Council, member of CenCoe, Student Senate, Chi Sigma Nu, Pan-Hellenic and Interfraternity Football Quee.

CHI OMEGA • •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• As Chi Omega celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in its 97 chapters throughout the country, Iota Gamma chapter proudly acclaims its record of achievement for the past year at Centenary. First concern next to studies of the girls was doing their part in the war effort. The girls spent many hours in Shreveport ' s hospitals as Nurses ' Aides, Red Cross Motor Corps, bandage rolling, entertainment at the U.S.O., and visiting wounded soldiers at Barksdale Field. The chapter started off by pledging sixteen girls who ' ve made a record of which to be proud. Betty Faye St. Clair and Wanda White were elected Vice-President and Secretary of the Freshman class, while Betty Lou Porter was chosen as Kappa Sigma Sweetheart. Five Chi Omegas, Betty Blaxton, Carolyn Clay, Carolyn Rigby, Eleanor Brown, and Elizabeth Ann Hudson were among those selected to appear in Who ' s Who. Among Student Senate members were six Chi O ' s, while chapter president, Betty Blaxton, was elected Co-ed Vice-President of the student body. In the sophomore class, Mary Katherine Johnson was elected Vice-President, Jane Riggs as Secretary. Of prominence in the journalistic field, Carolyn Clay, Editor of the Conglomerate, along with Marilyn Miller, one of Centenary ' s representatives on Mademoiselle ' s College Board, Assistant Editor of the Conglomerate, write collegiate columns for Shreveport ' s daily papers. Claire Tinnin served as Business Manager of the Yoncopin. Iota Gam gals proved versatile in all campus activities — Mildred Tippett was President of the Dramatics Club, Claire Tinnin, President of the Psychology Club; President of CenCoe, Mary Earle Texada; Carolyn Clay, Presi- dent of Pan-Hellenic; and Iris Connell headed the Dormitory Council. Iota Gamma is justly proud of the fact that they have maintained the highest scholastic average of any of the Greek organizations on the campus this year, a record which they have held for the past three years.

ALPHA XI DELTA i ' ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Leading the campus in pledging nineteen girls at the close of fall rushing, Beta Gamma Chapter of Al pha Xi Delta began the school term in true style. These girls began to follow in the footsteps of other Alpha Xi ' s and devote a great deal of time to the war effort. Afternoons and evenings found them rolling bandages, serving as Nurse ' s Aids, or entertaining the boys at the U. S. O., climaxing all their services by a bond-selling drive at Barksdale Field. The national organization of this sorority has purchased five Mobile Units for the Red Cross. These include a Blood Donor Ambulance, a Clubmobile for the African Campaign, a Utility Unit to transport men and messages in Hawaii, a Mobile Canteen for Ski Troops, and a Truck Ambulance to assist in disasters and in the Blood Donor Center at St. Paul. Aside from the war activities, the girls of Beta Gamma still continued to fill their place in campus activities. The chapter claimed two officers in the Junior class as Helen Weaver was elected president, while Kappa Sigma sweetheart, Eliose DeMoss served as treasurer. Helen was also a member of the Intramural Council, Student Sen- ate, Maroon Jackets, CenCoe, and vice-president of the sorority. The petite president of the girls of the golden quill was Doris Finley. This outstanding junior was a member of the Student Senate, president of the Maroon Jackets, vice-president of Pan-Hellenic, vice-president of Cenhomec, and a member of CenCoe. Treasurer Martha Yancey, a member of Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities, is outstanding in the field of music. These are only a few achievements of the girls from the Little Brown House, for this does not reflect the true friendship and sisterhood that can be seen at all times among the girls of Beta Gamma.

PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL Officers President Carolyn Clay Vice-President Doris Finley Secretary-Treasurer Mary Smith New Betty Blaxton Myrtle Canon Carolyn Clay Eloise DeMoss Members Doris Finley Joan Gibbons Betty Ann Green Mary Smith New Carolyn Rigby Mary Earle Texada Katherine Turner Martha Yancey The Pan-Hellenic Council is the central governing organization among the sorority women at Centenary College. Its primary purpose is to regulate rushing and maintain a cooperative spirit in both the work and play of the three national sororities located on the campus. For the year 1944-45, Pan-Hellenic accomplished its goal in a greater degree than ever before. To begin the year, Pan-Hellenic allowed the Greeks to have open summer rushing featuring open houses at the chapter lodges as well as personal rush dates. The formal rush season was begun by the traditional Pan-Hellenic Tea, where rushees and members were able to get acquainted with each other and with the rules governing rushing activii- ties. The annual style show highlighted the affair at which time fall fashions for campus and evening wear were modeled by members from each Greek group. The Council found that at the close of the season their diligent work was rewarded by one of the largest and most successful pledgings in many years. Pledging day was a great event climaxing the well laid plans drawn up by the council, including nine informal parties at the sorority houses and one formal party for each group. Mid-term rushing, although on a much smaller scale, was also exciting. Each sorority entertained at one night party and ten girls were pledged which also was a record group for a mid-term season. The Pan-Hellenic Council enjoyed a most profitable year, and each member trusts that by such cooperation and friendship, another step has been taken toward greater friendliness and understanding among the Greek groups on the campus. AUF AIT Beginning their sixth successful year on the campus with increased interest and renewed zeal, Aufait, the popular social group for non-sorority girls, has contributed greatly to campus activities. Under the able leadership of President Gloria Haygood, who is also treasurer of the Maroon Jackets, the members took an active part in college life. Doreen Eachus was a member of the Spanish Club, Dormitory Council, Fea- ture Editor of the Conglomerate, Secretary-Treasurer of the Ministerial Club, and a member of Alpha Sigma Pi; while Bobbie Roberts, treasurer of the group, served on the Dormitory Council, and reigned in the court of the Intra-fraternity Queen. Following the tradition of alternating their weekly meetings with business and social gatherings, great benefit has been gained by each girl. Hightlighting their pleasant social functions was a lovely luncheon and an impressive tea honoring the student nurses on the campus. Through work and fun, the girls have found this another year of success. Officers President Gloria Haygood Vice-Presideni Ruby Mae Richey Secretary Susan Dickey Treasurer ' . . .

Epsilon Chapter of Kappa Sigma, oldest chapter on the campus — established in 1885 — started the year with three members in school and 100 in the armed services, out of a total of 106 initiated since November, 1939. A new- campus lodge, dubbed Duration House was opened early in September. This new lodge was the scene of an impressive ceremony at the close of the Fall rush period, when President David Freeman, members of the chap- ter and alumni, home on leave from the armed services, conducted pledge services for thirty-one men. This group, the largest number pledged by any fraternity on the campus, included such outstanding students as Clack Erickson and Buddy Kincade, president and treasurer, respectively, of the Freshman Class; Dan Monroe and Billy Martin, honor students; Teddy Broyles, outstanding debater; Dan Carroll and Robert Smith, football players; Carl Brown, Dick Carleton, and Bill Johnson, members of the College basketball team. Inter-Fraternity football claimed more attention than ever this year. The championship game, between Kappa Sigma and Kappa Alpha resulted in a to tie. The stone wall defense of the Kappa Sigs led by Dan Carroll, fullback and coach, was a feature of the game. A series of enjoyable social affairs, including a barbecue, Founders ' Day banquet, and the Sweethearts ' Dance brought the first semester activities to a close. Basketball, dances, and picnics featured the second semester. The basketball team composed of Albert Huffman, Stewart Burris, Dick Carleton, Don Brown, Carl Brown, Joe Smith, and Bill Johnson, won the Inter-Frat championship by defeating the Kappa Alpha ' s in three straight games. David Freeman, student manager of Kollege Kapers, and the Kappa Sig chorus contributed much to the success of the show this year. As the year draws to a close the chapter can point with pride to many outstanding accomplishments: In the field of athletics — won or tied for the two major championships. In number of pledges — a record number of outstanding men. In service to the college and future generations of students — the establishment of a student loan fund of several hundred dollars. In service to the chapter and the college — the substantial increase in the house fund, now invested in War Bonds. This fund is to be used to build a permanent chapter house when the war is won. Epsilon has truly upheld the 76 year record of Kappa Sigma and its 110 chapters in service to education and its members. • •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• • KAPPA SIGMA Officers President David Freeman Vice-President ....

For the fifty-fourth consecutive year, Alpha Iota Chapter, under the capable leadership of Forbes Morrow, again registered a banner year. Following the excellent examples set for them by the founders of the chap- ter in 1891, members and pledges of Kappa Alpha have overcome both the changes wrought by war, and increasing fraternity competition to maintain their tradition of scholarship and excellent character building. The boys across the street have loyally answered the call to the colors. Into the Army went Glenn Graves, Carl Jones, Thomas Colley, Emmett McGovern, Harry Marks, Stuart Lunn, Bob Mayo, Sidney Williams, and Joe Sedberry. Those now attired in the Navy blue include Harris Darwin, Don Loper, A. B. Morris, Bob Corser, Charles Randall, Alvin White, Jimmie Best, Richard Jarrott, Bob Sullivan, Albert Bicknell, and Dur- wood Huckaby; while Donald Ellis donned the uniform of the U. S. Marines. These are but a few who serve their country as loyally as their fraternity. Again this year, the K. A. ' s came through with many honors and officers on Centenary campus. Listed in Who ' s Who are Forbes Morrow and Russell Rigby, the only two fraternity men included. As proof of this honor, Forbes was elected Treasurer of the Student Body, and Student Senate, President of the Sophomore Class, Vice-President of Alpha Sigma Pi; and Secretary-Treasurer of Pi Mu Sigma. Russell Rigby was chosen President of both the Intramural Council and Pi Mu Sigma, and Vice-President of Alpha Sigma Chi. Presiding over the French Club and Pi Kappa Delta is Lonard Wells, Student Senate member as well as Sports Editor of the Conglomerate. Powell Joyner is Treasurer of Alpha Sigma Pi. In the Senior Class elections, Horace Alvord and Ned Prothro were elected President and Treasurer respec- tively, while in the Sophomore Class, Forbes Morrow and Glenn Graves merited these same offices. Such is the record these loyal sons of Kappa Alpha have maintained — a record of which each is justly proud. • ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••a- KAPPA ALPHA Officers President Forbes Morrow Vice-President Ned Prothro Secretary Russell Rigby Treasurer Lonard Wells Members Dale Adams Horace Alvord Terrill Baker Clarence Barlow Richard Barry Whitney Boggs Robert Clifton Harris Darwin Willard Ent Billy Fowler Glenn Graves Maxwell Hanna Hill Harris Bill Harwell Wayne Holt Willis Hunter ■ Harold Jarred Charles Kalmbach John Langlow John Leopard Don Loper Emmett McGovern John McKee Bobby Mitchell Forbes Morrow Glenn Myers Raymond Padden Bonneau Peters Truett Pilgreen Kneeland Phelps Ned Prothro Charles Randall Russell Rigby John Rust Dan Sawyer Wilton Summers Lonard Wells Billy Gene West Pledges Boyd Dunlap Raymond Gibbs Charles Harlan Gene Ludlow George Plaxco W.

Founded at Boston University, November 2, 1909, Lambda Chi Alpha now has 101 active chapters in the United States, Canada, and South America. Although relatively young in the fraternity world, Lambda Chi Alpha ranks among the largest in size of National Fraternities. In February, 1941, Theta Rho Zeta Chapter was reorganized on Centenary campus with the initiation of five boys at the chapter of Ruston Tech. Under the capable leadership of William F. Roberts, Jr., the fraternity has prospered. Bill is also President of the Student Body; Secretary-Treasurer of the Spanish Club; President of the Ministerial Club; Treasurer of the Dra- matics Club, and member of the Student Senate. Jimmie Hill Cline is Vice-President and Pledge Master, Charles W. Kramer, Secretary, and Eddie Hughens, Treas- urer. These officers have faithfully served during the past year, and deserve credit for placing the fraternity on a sounder footing. As in other organizations, the Armed Forces have taken their toll this year. Charles Kramer doned the olive drab of the Army; while the Navy claimed Tommy Cox. Nevertheless there have been several social functions during the past year. One of the most .enjoyable was a Christmas party at the fraternity house. Gladden Harrison, prominent local alumnae, has entertained the fra- ternity several times, and Fall Rushing was highlighted by a banquet at the Caddo Hotel. Here Lambda Chi would like to thank several of our alumni whose service has been an inspiration to Theta Rho. Theta Psi Alumnae of Tech, Hines Tubby Rogers and Lt. Roy Hayes have rendered invaluable aid to t he rest of the fraternity. Frank McAneny and Marshall Kesling, graduates of last year, are two whose unselfish service cannot be overestimated. Also to Dr. William G. Phelps, Faculty Advisor, we give our heartfelt thanks. • ••••••• •••• • ••••••••• ••• • ••• • | LAMBDA CHI ALPHA Officers President Bill Roberts Vice-President Jimmie H.

Since its founding, Louis- iana Alpha chapter has played a leading role in campus activities. A signal honor, the group is small since its members include only those of Junior and Senior standing who have shown scholastic excellence in their studies throughout their entire college life. With records of 39.7 honor points or above for all their college years, the members of Alpha Chi are given that recogni- tion so richly deserved by those who excell scholastically. Sponsored by Dr. E. L. Ford, Alpha Chi extends invitations to membership to eligible students at the beginning of each new semester and following a period of pledgeship holds initiations soon afterwards. Starting the fall semester with only five members, the organization swelled its ranks at mid-term by the initiation of new members, making a total of nine for the year. Under the leadership of President Eleanor Brown, the activities of the club, though limited as a consequence of the war, were gratifying and bountiful. The principal project of the society is the sponsorship of an assembly program and the presentation at the honor chapel of an engraved leather notebook to the freshman selected by the members of Alpha Chi as the most outstanding scholastically and the most deserving member of his class. This is indeed a great honor to which Freshman may do well to aspire. Alpha Chi stands as a goal for upperclassmen who have consistently main- tained creditable academic standards and as an incentive to underclassmen in their pursuit of knowledge.

That those freshmen and sophomore students who main- tain such a commendable record should not go unrewarded, Alpha Sigma Pi was founded in 1932 by its present sponsor, Mrs. A. R. Camp- bell. This year, thirteen freshmen met the requisite of thirty-seven points scholastic average set by Alpha Sigma Pi. Though all social activities were discontinued for the duration of the war, once more the fraternity joined with the other honorary organizations on the campus in the presentation of its members at the Honor Chapel. The object of Alpha Sigma Pi is the stimulation and recognition of scholarship, leadership, and character. Membership in Alpha Sigma Pi is a goal for which every freshman strives and thereby learns to appreciate the merits of scholarship and wisdom. Members Alvin Gardsbane Powell Joyner Patricia McNicol Katy Oxford Ned Prothro Louis Smith Sarah Jane Stephens Sigma Pi Sigma, the national physics society on Centenary Campus, has chapters in many of the colleges and universities of recognized standing. It was founded as a local honor organization at Davidson College in 1921 by nine physics students and faculty members who felt the e was a definite need for an organization which would bring those persons particularly interested in this science into closer association for mutual benefit. In a short time that local society proved so successful that a movement to establish chapters in the leading colleges was launched in 1925. Today the organization of Sigma Pi Sigma numbers thirty-six chapters and more than 2,000 members. Because of its rapid expansion and outstanding achievements, Sigma Pi Sigma was recognized by the American Society for Advancement of Science as one of its members in the Physics Division. Delta chapter at Centenary was the fourth chapter to be founded when the movement first began to gain momentum nationally. In 1941, under the spirited leadership of Dr. F. E. Lowance, then the head of the Physics Department and an alumnus of the society, the chapter was reorganized after a brief period of inactivity. SIGMA PI SIGMA Officers President . .

The society tends to promote interest in research and the advanced study of physics. One of its chief aims is to popularize interest in physics in the general collegiate public by having many of its meetings open to the public.

Alpha Sigma Chi, honorary chemistry frater- nity, under the able guidance of Dr. Entrikin and Dr. Thayer, has stimulated much student interest in chemistry this year. To be eligible for membership in the fraternity, a student must possess a C plus average as well as a C plus average in at least one of the advanced chemistry courses, and share a genuine interest in chemistry. Upon meeting such requirements and with the unanimous approval of the organi- zation, the future member must prove himself worthy at a somewhat unique initiation de- signed to test his physical and mental en- durance. By the circulation of the Science News Teller, written and published by the science profes- sors, all former members are informed of the activities of the Club. It is the desire of the or- ganization to make a definite contribution to the great roll chemistry is now playing in our everyday life.

Russell Rigby Vice-President . Gwyn Hargis Sec ' y-Treas. . Forbes Morrow Pi Mu Sigma, an honorary fraternity for premedical students, is one of the oldest organizations on Centenary Campus. Its purpose has been to promote interest and increase the knowledge in the field of medicine. Since its found- ing in September, 1925, the fraternity has flourished, and from its membership have gone large numbers to take their place in the medical profession. To be eligible for membership, a student must have a sincere desire to follow a career in the several fields of medicine. Also necessary is a high scholastic average and the unanimous approval of the members. Each initiate undergoes a solemn ritual as part of his acceptance into the fraternity, and upon presenta- tion of a fifteen hundred word theme on some phase of medicine, becomes a member. Pi Mu Sigma is honored to have on its roll many who are now serving as doctors in the armed forces. Interesting and timely talks by such alumni have highlighted many of the meetings. Medicine has made great advancement in this war and by such first hand information, the organization may attain its goal of keeping up with new trends on various battle fields. The members of Pi Mu Sigma take this opportunity to thank Dr. Mary Warters for her untiring efforts in behalf of the fraternity. Under her guidance as fac- ulty sponsor, the club will continue to remain a real help and true incentive to those who have dedicated their lives to aiding mankind. Beychock, Ent, Gray, Hargis . . .

Rosalie Yancey For over a decade, the Commerce Club, com- posed of commerce and economic students, has been one of the outstanding departmental or- ganizations at Centenary. One of the primary purposes of the organization is to familiarize the students with practical business operations, and thereby apply those principles he is study- ing in the class room. Leaders of business and industry in the Shreve- port area have contributed much to the pro- gram of the organization. Talks and round table discussions by local businessmen give the student an opportunity to learn first hand what businessmen expect of a college grad- uate. Several local firms have been studied whereby great benefit has been derived from actual observation of such enterprises. Since 1938, the Commerce Club sponsored by Professor Robert S. See has met with gratifying success. Because of the definite need for those men and women in this field, the Commerce Club feels that the future will hold greater op- portunities and achievements.

Meetings are directed by the President of the group, Jimmie Hill Cline, and are conducted in Spanish, and do much to enlarge the Spanish vocabulary of the members. Isabel Guzman, Mexico ' s gift to Centenary, has devoted much time to the activities of the club. She is the first student to attend Centenary under ar- rangement with the American Foundation School of Mexico. Miss Guzman has done much to familiarize the students with the customs, languages, and people of Mexico and Central America. Several former members, who since gradua- tion have traveled in Mexico, returned to tell of their experience in these Spanish-speaking countries. Before Christmas, the organization enjoyed a fiesta supper featuring typical dishes. In the spring the traditional picnic and final meeting was held once more, bringing to a close a year of great benefit and pleasure. It is the desire of this organization that much time in the future be devoted to the Spanish-speaking countries. Through the time and energies of Professor R. E. White, the Spanish Club has done much to further the interest and ap- preciation of all things Spanish. SPANISH CLUB Officers President . . Jimmie H.

Ford, the French Club added one more year of suc- cess to its records — dedicated to problems con- cerning relations with all French speaking peo- ples. In addition to such a study, the social and political difficulties and traditions and cus- toms to be encountered in post war negotiations were discussed. The purpose of the French Club is to furnish opportunities for the students to increase their knowledge of French through conversation. Members of this modern language group are re- quired to maintain a C average in French. At monthly meetings conducted in French, guests included member s of the contingent of French soldiers stationed at Barksdale Field, and by this opportunity the members gained an insight into the life of both metropolitan and rural France. In tribute to the French fighters the club spon- sored a dance in the Sub during the Christmas holidays to which the French soldiers and Cen- tenary students were invited.

To qualify for membership, one must be above sophomore standing and main- tain a B average in college. The candidate for membership must also pass the unanimous vote of the chapter before a bid can be extended. As the num- ber of members is limited, those wearing the gold key of Chi Sigma Nu are justly proud. The purpose of this fraternity is to promote high standards of scholarship among students of education who contemplate teaching as a profession and to foster an interest in contemporary educational problems. Speakers scheduled for the meetings include outstanding educators of both city and state. These educators generally discuss the classroom problems of the prospective teachers as well as the latest trends in education, thereby lending invaluable advice to those college students who will soon enter the educational field. By such timely talks and by actual experience gained in work at the Demonstration school, each member is greatly benefited. The fraternity is assisted by the staff of the Centenary Demonstration School. CHI SIGMA NU Officers President . Martha Stevens V. -President, Dorothy Viosca Sec ' y-Treas. . .

Cenhomec, the Home Economics Club, was or- ganized and directed to provide an opportunity for the personal development of its members for service to school and community, and for participation in improving home and family living. This year, meetings were highlighted by united Red Cross work, and discussions of domestic activities vital to the winning of the war. American Beauty was the theme selected for this year ' s programs, and great benefit was de- rived from the interesting talks presented on American literature, art, furniture, and fashion. Mary Lou Slay was chosen to represent Cen- tenary as a delegate to the Province meeting held at Jackson, Mississippi, and was there selected State Officer. Mary Elizabeth Achee, the state president of the La. Home Economics Council, was Cenhomec ' s representative at the State meeting held at Alexandria in November. June Hetherwick was selected as Cenhomec ' s representative to the Province meeting held in Jackson, Mississippi.

Watson Marion Wisdom Ye are the light of the world — Go! — Shine for me. These challenging words were the motto chosen by the Ministerial Club this year. The group is com- posed of both boys and girls who have dedicated their lives to full-time Chris- tian work. This organization, founded in 1921, by the late Dr. George Sexton, has spread its Christian influence ever the Centenary Campus for twenty-four years. Since its founding the club has been fortunate in having as its spon- sors Dean and Mrs. R. E. Smith. This year the club has been under the capable leadership of Bill Roberts, President, outstanding ministerial student and former member of the U. S. Marine Corps; Jane Lee Cook, Vice President; and Doreen Eachus,- Secretary- Treasurer. It is the object of the Ministerial Club to promote religious activities on the campus, and in the Dormitory. The project chosen for this year was the sponsoring of a drive for funds for the World Student Service. A committee composed of members of the Min- isterial Club led by Wally Babington conducted the drive in which the entire student body participated. Several members of the club were active in the formation of the Centenary Religious Association, an organization composed of all students interested in promoting religious activities on the campus. This year as in years previous, several of the members served as pastors for rural communities and as leaders for the religious assemblies. The Ministerial Club has completed yet another year of service, emphasizing that its members cooperate with other organizations. Ministerial Club Officers President . . .

Organized in February, 1937, the club grew from a need for some sort of inter-sorority activity, for the creation of a friendly spirit and understanding among competitve groups. Composing the membership are ten outstanding girls from each sorority, the only requirement being that they be upperclassmen. Meetings are held the first Sunday afternoon of every month alternating among the three lodges. Each year the CenCoes have a Christmas luncheon for the members, and one in the Spring in honor of the senior members. It is the custom of the CenCoes at the end of each year to award a trophy to the most outstanding senior member of the organization. Selection for this coveted honor is based upon loyalty to her sorority, CenCoe and the College. Members Frances Audrey Ilona Curtis Charlotte Dupuy Jessie Mae Dykes Amy Goldman Sunshine Norris Harriet Schram Jean Smith Sybille Spurlock Rose Mae Stuart Claire Tinnin Betty Jean Waldron Of prominence in campus affairs this year is the newly organized Psychology Club. Inaugurated this year under the capable leadership of Dr. O. K. Miles, the organization has met with gratifying success and already several new members have been added to the roll. The purpose of the group is to further interest in Psychology through lecture, discussion, and reading. Membership is open not only to students majoring or minoring in Psychology, but to all interested in learning more about the subject. Various interesting lectures have highlighted the many programs planned by these psychology students. Through the efforts of Professor Bryant Davidson, several noted speakers appeared before the members at their monthly meet- ings. Among these were Dr. Polgars and Dr. Orris, former students of Sigmund Freud. Dr. Orris presented interesting facts regarding Hitler and the Germany of today. Local psychiatrists have also attended the meetings of the club, and through these interesting discussions, the purpose of the club has become a reality. The nine charter members are: Claire Tinnin, Frances Audrey, Harriet Schram, Jean Smith, Ilona Curtis, Amy Goldman, Charlotte Dupuy, and Rose Mae Stuart. Psychology Club Officers President . .
