' aaSS 111 DEDICATION A woman of profound scholarship, gracious charm, and splendid Christian character — a humanitarian in the fullest and finest meaning of the word is Dr. Katherine Jackson French, professor Emeritus of English at Centenary College. Before Dr. French joined the faculty at Centenary she was already known as a leader in the cultural and religious life of the community, one of the founders of the Woman ' s Department Club of Shreve- port, a perennially popular lecturer, and an inspiration to all those with the good for- tune to know her. For many years Dr. French served as lecturer in the Shreveport Department Club and brought to its audiences the inspiration and intellectual challenge which distinguish her understanding interpretation of the world ' s great literary classics. In 1924 she brought that genius for teaching to the faculty of Centenary College. Hundreds of students have known, loved, and respected the value of so gifted a woman and would well appreciate the tribute of the student who recently said, Dr. French transforms the tasks of educa- tion into a challenging adventure in learning. It is to Dr. Katherine J. French that we dedicate this volume of the Yoncopin. DR. KATHERINE J. FRENCH £FAe Shebulent. I Once again it is my pleasure to greet you through the medium of the college yearbook. Its publication signifies that another school year nears completion. Through its pages we may view a record of the activities, achievements and events of the graduate 49 ' ers and their associates. Here is a record of the year ' s activities, but the real value must be measured by the intangible qualities of heart and mind. The Christian college has as its main purpose the enrichment of its students with something fine, sub- stantial and dynamic in mind, body and soul. Such gains as these cannot be recorded in the pages of a yearbook or in the college bulletin; these gains can only be judged by the young men and women who are a part of the college. It is the hope of the faculty and administration that while here you may be thus endowed to realize the demands of a changing world and to accept the challenge which it presents. Joe J. Mickle.

These Student Body officers serve also as offi- cers of the Student Senate. This year Diz Dun- can assumed leadership of the Student Body upon resignation of Charles Laing who was elected president in the spring of 1948. During the school year, the officers have attended stu- dent government conferences at Lafayette, Baton Rouge and Hammond. At these con- ferences these students were instrumental in es- tablishing the newly organized Student Federa- tion of Louisiana Colleges and Universities. Marjorie Bogue Jack Gibson Mantha Caraway Troy Harris Tommy Ellis Wilbur Hirsch Lenny Fant Bob Young STUDENT SENATE The student body of Centenary College is gov- erned by the Student Senate. This governing body is composed of the student body officers, the president of each college class, and repre- sentatives at large from the Inter-Fraternity Council, the Pan-Hellenic Council, non-fraternity men and non-fraternity women. Outstanding among its contributions to student government and campus activities is the work which the senate contributed to the establishment of the Louisiana Student Federation of Colleges and Universities. Representatives from the senate were active in drafting the constitution and lay- ing the ground work for the establishment of this Federation. At class meetings held in the spring the student body ratified the Federation constitution. With student funds, the Senate has provided two dances for the student body, one in the fall and one in the spring at which time the new officers of the Student Body were introduced.

Evan Campbell, Co-Editor Before Evan Campbell Publishing a yearbook calls for more than photo- graphs, high-powered filing systems or endless al- teration of lay-outs and copy. It calls for patience, sleepless nights and devotion to the proposition that the Yoncopin will mean something to the students of the college. This year we present a yearbook of which we are proud. We present a publication which has demanded the expenditure of time and energy. Such an expenditure the staff does not be- grudge if the results of our labors mean a great deal in alumni years. May this volume mean a great deal to you now and in post-college days. After YONCOPIN Barbara Thomas Barbara Thomas and Evan Campbell served as co- editors of the Yoncopin this year. With those of the staff who are pictured here, they have cracked the whip of authority to meet deadlines and other crises of publication. The editors and members of the staff should like to thank the members of the faculty and student body for their cooperation during the past year. Special appreciation is in order for faculty sponsors, Katherine Turner and S. D. Morehead. Among the pages of this book may you find the record of another great year in the history of our college and by its presence be reminded of those things which make college life such a worthwhile thing.

Gaining national recognition with a repeat perform- ance for the Lions International Convention, the Centenary College Choir returned to Shreveport to increase local recognition by frequent trips to cities in the Ark-La-Tex area. The immensely popular Shreveport Serenade was presented in November to an appreciative Shreveport audience. In December the choir began a 13-week series of radio broadcasts over station KTBS. The 47-voice choir began the current school year with their annual trip to Lake Bistineau to rehearse for the strenuous concert season. The International Night Program at the Lions International Convention featured the girls of the choir dressed in the native costumes of one of the countries represented at the convention. Each had as her escort the delegate from that country.

Under the capable leadership of Director Bill Causey, the boys and girls of the band have made a definite contribution to the college scene. Every year the members of the band elect a Centenary Co-ed as Band Sweetheart. This year the band selected Miss Barbara White, pictured at left. A freshman this year, Barbara comes to Centenary from North Platte, Nebras- ka. She has been active in dramatic, intra- mural and organizational activities.

Three girls from each social sorority and the non-Greek group are selected for their qualities of leadership, scholarship and character. These girls are on hand at college functions to serve student and visitor as a friendly and charming emissary of the college tradition.

OMICRON DELTA KAPPA- Beta Pi circle of Omicron Delta Kappa was founded at Centenary on February 18, 1949, with ten stu- dents and five members of the faculty initiated as charter members. Nine new members were initiated at the same time to bring the total number to twenty-four. Before its installation as a circle of Omicron Delta Kappa, the local organization was known as the Laurel Society. The primary purpose of this group was to act as official hosts of the college. Members were expected to preserve the most worthwhile of campus traditions, to assist in freshman orientation and to promote cooperation among student groups. The primary purpose of this group was identical with the precepts of ODK, as it acted as a service group to the college. The Laurel Society had its be- ginning in January of 1948 when twenty-one outstanding young men were chosen by the faculty as charter members. The ultimate purpose behind this move was affiliation with some national service group that would gain prestige for the college and the men who became members. Membership in this society is the highest honor that a man may receive in college life. It is hoped that membership in ODK as an added incentive for recognition in leadership, scholarship and character will prove its worth as an inspiration to the men of the college. Officers of Omicron Delta Kappa are: Raymond Gibbs, President; Gaius Hardaway, vice-president; Robert Moody, secretary and Julian Hatcher, treasurer.

There were four presen- tations, each complementing the others in technique and appeal, while adding its own inimitable to a theatrical gamut. The productions were received enthusiastical- ly. Life With Father, a popular Broad- way play was the initial performance, set- ting a precedent for fast-moving, scintillat- ing dialogue. Then came Thornton Wilder ' s Our Town with its usual lack of realistic setting and props and its use of ladders in place of stairways. The next presentation was the bewitching comedy drama, Claudia, using an all student cast. The last produc- tion, The Valiant, combined the attri- butes of the first three. The performances of the guest stars deserve a special ac- knowledgment.

The purpose of the work- shop is to stimulate and encourage the study and presentation of serious vocal music, oratorio and opera. The workshop meets every Tuesday evening in the Music Hall of the college. The first project of the year was The Music Master. In December the work- shop presented the Christmas Oratorio, then in the spring Hansel and Gretel was presented. The last production was Casi Fan Tutte. The results of the year ' s work has been a keener interest in good singing, individual achievement and the breaking down of self-consciousness to those possessing fine talent.
