While a freshman at L.S.U. he had the highest scholastic record in his class and received an award for the best average in the university. In his senior year he was captain of his R.O.T.C. company and lettered in football and tennis. He was also president of the Y.M.C.A., member of the Honor Council, vice-president of the Inter-Fraternity Council, member of the University debate team, and of Scabbard and Blade. Such a record led to his membership in Mu Sigma Rho, national scholastic honorary, Tau Kappa Alpha, national debate society, and Phi Pi, na- tional law society. After he received his LL.B. degree from L.S.U. in 1925, he began the practice of law in his hometown, Minden. At the GOVERNOR ROBERT FLOYD KENNON BOARD O F SUPERVISORS FIRST Row: Mr. Theo. F.

Jr. 16 LOUISIANA AND THE PRESIDENT OF age of 23. he was elected mayor, at that time the nation ' s oungestmayor. Governor Kennon attended the Command and General Staff school at Fort Leavenworth. Kansas, and served with the Ninth Army in Europe, where he was decorated by King Paul of Greece. In 1954 he was elected President of the Council of State Government . Since his 1952 elect ' on. Governor Kennon has been resid- ing in Baton Rouge with Mrs. Kennon and their three sons. Kenwood. Charles, and Robert Floyd. Jr.. who is now a fresh- man at L.S.I . Lieutenant General Tr H. Middleton has been a familiar figure at Louisiana State University for almost twenty-five ears. It was in 1930 that he first began a six year term as Commandant of Cadet and during the last two years of this term was also Dean of Men. Since that time he has served L X .U. in four other capacities that of Dean of Administra- tion. Acting Vice-President. Comptroller, and since February 1. 1951. President of the University. General Middleton was born in Georgetown. Mississippi, on October 12. 1889. It was after his graduation from Mi - --ippi State College in 1909. that he became a private in the Army. The first service of his exemplary career was during the Mexican campaigns in 1912. He was the Army ' s youngest full colonel in World War I and kept this rank upon his mil- itary retirement in 1936. But this retirement was not perma- nent since he was recalled in 1942 to command the 45th Di- vision. Later, as commander of the Eighth Corps, he was credited with a stroke of genius by General George Patton because of his decision to hold Bastogne at the Battle of the Bulge. General Middleton ' s abilities have been derived not only from his experience in military and administrative fields, but the teaching field also since he has taught at L.S.I . and several Army institutions. Thus we have a picture of a man who is a soldier, a teacher, and an administrator Trov H. Middleton. L S U GENERAL TROY H. MIDDLETON President of the Vnitrratv A D MINISTRATORS CHARLES E.

TAYLOR Dean of the College oj Arts and Sciences I The primary purpose of the College of Arts and Sciences is to af- ford the student a liberal education, which by its nature is broad rather than narrow, devoted to intellectual development and disci- pline rather than to the acquisition of technical skills. It should give the student some knowledge of the achievements of the human mind, with special reference to the Western civilization of which both the ancient world and contemporary America are parts; of the historical and cultural backgrounds essential to a true understanding of our world; above all, of orderly thinking processes and of a scale of values by which he can distinguish the permanent and the trivial, the substantial and the pretentious, the good and the bad. o R FRANKLIN DeWITT PLATT JEANNE MARCHESSAW CAROLIE ROBKRTSOiN President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE The College of Agriculture. Louisiana State University, was estab- lished by Act of Congress in 1862. The research or experiment station division was established by Act of Congress in 1887. and the agricul- tural and home economics extension division was established by Act of Congress in 1914. The aims of the College are threefold: 1. To train agricultural and home economics leaders in all phases of Agriculture. 2. To conduct a program of scientific research pertaining to Agri- culture and Home Economics. 3. To take this information to the farms and homes throughout the state of Louisiana so that it can be successfully put into practice. So the major aim of the College is to serve the people of the state of Louisiana. The outstanding events from year to year are as follows: 1. Farm and Home Week. 2. The 4-H Club and FFA district and state livestock show. 3. The two convocations held during the year one in the Fall and one in the Spring. 4.

Since the time of its organization, the College has grown steadily. It has a faculty numbering thirty full time people. In addition, there are some 60 graduate research and teaching assistants. The College offers degrees in Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Physics. At the present time, the number of students which we are able to graduate in these fields is less than one-third of the number which could profitably be placed in industrial, academic, and research positions.

GIBBENS Secretary-Treasurer COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The College of Engineering is an integral and a very important unit of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College. Ever since the establishment of L.S.U.. engineering has been taught. Its graduates occupy important positions in Louisiana, in the United States, and in the world, requiring men and women trained in the fundamentals of the various engineering curricula, as well as in the ability to think, to act and to get along with others. During 1954-55. the faculty of the College of Engineering, among other duties, has been cooperating with the Committee on Evaluation of Engineering Education of the American Society for Engineering Education, in studying the various engineering curricula, with the purpose in mind of educating our students so that they will be pre- pared to cope with the problems of the technological world in which we are living.

Before that date it had func- tioned as a department. The school became a member of the National Association of Schools of Music in the same year. The educational purpose of Louisiana State University School of Music is directed toward assisting the individual student to the fullest possible development of his innate musical gifts and helping him to make the musical arts a constructive cultural asset in his own life and that of his fellow men, to the extent that this will be compatible with his own interest and happiness and that of the community in which he will live. The school furthermore aims to provide opportunities to the great- est possible number of students to share in the heritage of the musical culture of the human race and in turn to contribute to this culture. Some of the annual activities the school sponsors are: Festival of contemporary music; opera productions; instrumental and vocal clin- ics; band, orchestra and choral concerts.

The Daily Reveille is a student newspaper, published by Louisiana State University and edited by students mainly for student readers, according to the official Reveille policy book. Yet this is a generalization, and before the staff can turn out its 55 issues a semester for the University community, a number of specifics must be worked out. To prevent duplication The Reveille often works in co- operation with the Baton Rouge papers, the Department of Public Relations and the athletic publicity office. Also, the working hours of the staff must be scheduled around the full scholastic load staff members are required to carry. The work of the student staff must be adapted to the hours of the full-time mechanical staff which operates the $36,000 worth of machinery in the backshop in the South L Barracks.

Most of these workers receive class credit for their work. Even before the reporters are assigned, the advertising staff has been at work selling ads. These ads are drawn in on the dummies, which are blank sheets of paper the size of a Reveille page. When completed these dummies are turned over to the editorial staff. After the reporter turns in his copy it is edited by a paid staff member, and placed on the dummy along with pictures and headlines. The process of making-up and headline writ- ing are usually completed by midnight and the materials are taken to the backshop. I-.-ft lo right: Douglas Menville, Cartoonist: Marvin Hardee, Photographer; Sam Hanna. Advertising: Graham Le Sturgeon. Advertising. The next morning the backshop crew sets the copy into type. The type is inked and a printed image is reproduced. This image, or proof, is given to the proofreader who corrects typographical, grammatical and spelling errors. While the type is being set, cuts of the pictures are made by the engrav- ing department. After typesetting and engraving are complete, all that re- mains is the actual makeup of the page. The metal type and the engravings are placed in metal frames, with each story and picture placed as it was drawn in on the dummy. A final page proof is taken, corrections are made by a news editor and The Daily Reveille is ready for the press. By this time, however, the rest of the staff is back at Alumni Hall at work on the next edition. Left to right: Andrew Zollinger, Reporter: Steve Kennedy.

LILLY Associate Editor DONALD J. TATE Associate Editor SIDNEY B. GALLOWAY.. ..Associate Editor DELTA This is Delta s ninth year, and a year in which Delta came closer than ever to its goal of becoming a truly representative student lit- erary magazine. The editorial staff, and Dr. John Wildman, the faculty advisor, felt that every interested student, regardless of his major, should be encouraged to submit material (poetry, short stories, essays, art, etc.). All too often, students in fields other than English will hesitate to contribute to a campus literary magazine. This tends to give the publication a certain lack of balance. Delta wanted to be a student magazine in every sense of the word. After all, the staff members ranged from English and French majors all the way over to Commerce and Law students. Why not the same range from the contributors? The response this year was gratifying. Students from practically every department sent in material, enabling Delta to achieve that fine balance so much desired. This seems to prove that Delta is meeting its challenge of pro- viding a student outlet for creative expression at L.S.U.

LSU ENGINEER Serving as the official publication of the College of Engineering, the L.S.U ' . E ngineer was born in 1949. It is published five times annually, and is edited by an entirely student staff. Through the medium of semi-technical writing, this magazine provides articles of interest to engineering students, and this year, more than ever before, to all students of the campus interested in the recent devel- opment of this increasingly industrial world. Engineering is not a monopolized or limited pro- fession. The genius of imagination, precision, persis- tency and versatility is not separated by nations or enclosed by natural boundaries. The actual limit to success is contained in the degree to which the appren- tice engineer shows initiative, knowledge, courage, enthusiasm and integrity in applying the aforemen- tioned qualities. It is in an attempt to uphold and foster the deep respect the engineering profession has earned that The Engineer has strived; for, through the progress of his accomplishments and his continually proven ability, the endeavors and exploits of his forefathers, his service to the world, the engineer has become high- ly regarded. He is looked upon for leadership. Through his inventive genius and technical know- how he has become the keystone of society. 152 -HUmnititB ' M .emeries, memories, of Dog Days way last fall: Bewildered looks and aching feet . . . dorm regulations and new roommates . . . meetings at eight and tests all the time . . . and the military marching everywhere, for this is the Army, Dog LeBlanc!

George Farquhar AUK Speech department has served up a wide variety of drama, appealing to all tastes the delightfully zany, the classic tragedy, the philosophical thought-provoker. Against an expressionistic setting Beggar on Horseback was a fast moving fantasy of distortion and exaggeration in dream sequences, a satirization of American customs. MacBeth moved from the familiar witch chant, Double, double, toil and trouble . . . progressing through Lady MaeBeth ' s famous hand washing scene with Out, out, damn spot! As we go to press, controversial arguments still flame over the meaning and symbolism of The Trial. These are the onstage impressions, hut there are also the hack- stage jitters, the tingle of excitement as a stage hand calls up to the dressing rooms, Curtain, five minutes, and that first step before the footlights. These are the actor ' s memories. And then there was the after party . . . )HE ' S a Metropolitan Opera Star now, acclaimed by ail, curtain call after curtain call, bouquets of roses . . . the work is hard, but the rewards are great : a glamorous life before footlights, her name often in the society headlines . . . and where did it all begin? Why in the L.S.U. operatic performances. Thus dreams many a future prima donna of the operatic world, and perhaps some of our young aspirants, as they took their places for the Music department ' s production of Angelique and Romeo and Juliet, built just such airy castles in the sky. Someday a few of these castles may materialize . . . .. w M, LusiC beguilingly reaches out across the footlights and draws in an enraptured audience. The or- chestra, in sophisticated black and white, is the Pied Piper who enchants by a spell of music. Simul- taneously bows move across the strings at exact angles, feet involuntarily beat the rhythm, every stroke spells perfection. Behind the scenes, work has been going on for many weeks preparing for the big occasion, the Concert. Even at the Dress Rehearsal, where no one dresses up, last minute changes are made, and Dr. Stroke urges the partici- pants to put themselves into their playing so the audience will feel the mood. The night of the performance everything must run like clock work this is the end result of much planning and prac- tice. The curtain is raised, the baton descends, music issues forth. 4 G in number, hut strong in the love of their country, the Spirit of ' 76 the fifer, the drummer, the flag bearer inspired American forces in their fight for Independence. From this meager be- ginning, bands have blossomed forth and now represent an ingrained American tradition. The memory of John Phillip Sousa, the March King, arises often as bands all over the country play his stirring marches. And part of this tradition is the 1..S.I . band with colorful performances at the football half-times. In one spectacular show the L.S.U. band followed the prog- ress of light through the ages in honor of the Electric Power and Light Company ' s Anniversary. L.S.U. also played host to Louisiana high school bands one half- time. Another musical element on campus is the military band. I INDERELLA had nothing on the L.S.U. coed. There have been quite a few dances of many and varied descriptions. Prominent among the entertainment was the Name Band Dance with Harry James, whose band includes an L.S.U. grad. Another major event was the Military Ball, taking place amid much flourishing of swords. Ranging from the Latin American observance of Columbus Day to the Freshman Day and Texas Tech dances and even to the newly set-up Dorm Dances, L.S.U. students have had the opportunity to escape the fate of All work, and no play . . . as they moved to the rhythm of music. r V-. i F OR its symbol the U.S. has Uncle Sam of the striped pants and high top hat fame . . . and L.S.U. boasts it Darling, symbol of Southern beauty, charm and hospitality, and in whose honor the Gumbo Ball is staged. Highlighting the pre-Christinas season was this year ' s extravaganza, built around a modernistic decor. Finally the gripping suspense was broken with the presentation of the court and then the Darling, radiantly smiling. The Gym Armory can ' t take many more evasions like that ! The U.

Be- sides being a wholesome physical activity, modern dance helps to improve posture and to develop poise and coordination. While students are learning to move gracefully and expressively, they also find that dance helps them to relax and enjoy themselves. H IGNORING outstanding leaders on campus, the Fall Convocation was highlighted by the tapping of eleven new members by Omi- cron Delta Kappa and the awarding of the Most Outstanding Freshman Girl cup by Mortar Board.

The object of the organization is to unite the various sororities of LSU in a closer bond of friendship and to further the feeling of good will among them. Membership is composed of a maximum of five girls from each sorority, the girls being chosen on the basis of leadership, character, and congeniality. Along about December a very distinctive group of girls could be seen around the campus. They were sporting the red devil ' s cap. This cap was worn as a symbol of their pledgeship to Delta Gamma Delta. After a wrr-k of fun and frolic, these girls discarded their caps and took on the sign of full membership, the gold devil ' s pin. In the spring we will have our annual softball game with our arch rival. Lambda, which we alway- look forward to. Before the end of the school year Delta Gamma Delta has a banquet to round out the year ' s activities.

These three young men had seen and experienced the horror of a civil conflict which pitted countryman against countryman. Upon returning to their col- lege pursuits at Virginia Military Institute, they decided to make an attempt to reunite the young men of the North and South in a brother- hood based on a common belief in the principles of Christianity. Hence the founding of Alpha Tau Omega. Since 1865. the fraternity has grown from a small southern nucleus to a large national fraternity that embraces the entire L nited States and part of Canada. There are 120 active chapters in this area. In addition. 65.000 men hold membership cards, of which a large amount gather every two years at the Biennial Congress of the Fraternity. The Central Office is located at Champaign. Illinois. Louisiana Epsilon Zeta Chapter was established in February, 1940. In September 1951 the Chapter opened its new house on Dalrymple Drive and since then has grown to be an integral part of the Fraternity Svstem at LSI . OFFICERS OF II Tl I-- !

A highly effective rush week was climaxed by our annual Monte Carlo Party and the welcoming of new pledges at the party following the Alabama football game. Throughout the fall, the Dekes gathered at the house for a party following every football game. 1954 was brought to an end on a high key with the Christmas Dance. The new year began in a roaring fashion with the Dog-Patch Party, which was acclaimed by many to be one of the best in our history. With the Formal, the Covington Picnic, the Pledge-Active Party, the Bowery Party, and the numerous Patio Parties, the Dekes can expect a full spring semester. In spite of the active social calendar. Delta Kappa Epsilon managed to perform many civic projects such as the Christmas Party for Under- privileged Children. The Dekes were still able to maintain their high scholastic average and begin defense of their athletic sweepstakes tro- phy by capturing basketball for the third straight year. 5 OFFICERS OF RlCHRD P.

The Stars and Bars of Kappa Alpha rose to its greatest height as we opened this year by pledging fifty-five of the greatest boys entering the Ole War Skule this year. Kappa Alpha ' s own Jerry Marchand and Gary Dildy coached our chap- ter to a 21-1 -t victory over Theta Kappa Phi in the annual Charity Bowl game, which netted a record $1500 for the underprivileged children ' s fund at Christmas time. On January 19 the Alpha Gamma chapter gathered with reverence to honor its great spiritual founder. General Robert E. Lee. at its annual Convivium Banquet. The gay splendor of the old South was recaptured in the form of our Old South Ball held in mid-March of this year. The KA ' s. dressed in costumes of Civil War era. and their lovely dates, in beautiful dresses corresponding to the same period, set about to relive life as it was in the ante-bellum age. The feature events of an extensive social program commences with a fine camp party honoring the girls who did such a wonderful job for Kappa Alpha during rush season this year: a great Christmas Party, starring as Santa Glaus, our perennial pledge. Frank Leonard; another camp party given by our fine pledge class in honor of the active members: as the end of the year rolls around, the scene is set for our annual Apache and Cowboy parties which put the lid on a banner year for the Kappa Alpha Order.

PHI DELTA THETA The Phi Delta Theta Fraternity was founded at Miami University. Oxford. Ohio. December 26. 1848. The chapter on this campus was founded just ten years before the centennial which was held in 1948. This chapter was founded by Jack Bushman. Phi Delta Theta was the first fraternity to cross the Mississippi River. It was also the first international fraternity. Three well known Phi ' s from this chapter are Dale Morey. one of the top amateur golfers of the nation: Jim Gardner, recently elected mayor of Shreveport: and Al Dark, team captain of the New York Giants. We took second place in fraternities for Homecoming decorations this year which was a let-down after winning first place for the past three years. We are planning to build a new house on the lot near the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity house, and we expect it to be finished some time this vear.

SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON Louisiana Epsilon of Sigma Alpha Epsilon was founded on the L.S.U. campus, then in Alexandria, in 1867; it was the first national fraternity at L.S.I . This was only twelve years after the first SAE chapter was founded at the L niversity of Alabama. As in the past SAE again established itself this year at the top of the social calendar. The Sig Alphs ' parties were nothing short of TREMENDOUS. Some of the outstanding parties which were the highlights of the year were the Orphans ' Christmas Party, the Ln- dertakers Ball, the Redhead date night, the Black and White formal, and the Beachcombers Ball. Not only was the fraternity at the top socially, but academically as well. The SAE fraternity house has been the center of activities for many years Homecoming. Christmas, and Easter parties. There is a spa- cious patio in the back yard where barbecues and chicken suppers are held. Members can usually bring their dates over to the House to dance on Friday nights by radio or record player.

James Hopkins, and Greenfield Quarles. were mature men: and. moved by idealistic hopes, they formed a society which would instil honor and mutually benefit its members scholastically. socially, physically, spiritually and morally. In the years following. Sigma Nu grew and increased: today there are 119 chapters. In 1883, through the efforts of David Barrow. R. M. Amacker. and others. Phi Chapter was founded upon the campus of L.S.U. A chapter house was built and later sold. In 1938 the members and alumni of Phi Chapter cooperated to build the present chapter house on Fra- ternity Row. Phi Chapter has gained strength through the years. The chapter is proud, not only of its many alumni who have distinguished them- selves in various fields, but also of its high standing on the campus that it has established and maintained throughout the years.

PHI GAMMA DELTA Phi Gamma Delta is one hundred seven years old. Rising out of the sentiments of a group of six young men who wished to establish their ideals in a fraternity organization, Phi Gamma Delta has be- come an important part in the college life of thousands of Fijis. Beta Rho Chapter at L.S.U. was founded in 1948. The eighty-one other chapters of our fraternity are found in most major colleges in this country and Canada. This past year has found the brothers of Beta Rho working to com- plete the building of our new lodge, which we plan to move into this fall. The lodge, which is to be single story, should furnish a pleasant change in fraternity row. Prominent Fijis on campus include: Joe Don Powell, Speaker of the Student Senate; three other members of the Senate: Jared Evans. Phil Hablutzel, and Oran Ritter; Jerry Beauregard, President of the YMCA; three members of the University Debate Squad; Phil Hablut- zel, Jerry Tarver. and Jack Gilbert. OFFICERS O F JACK C.

Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Xi at L.S.U. was founded in June of 1938. Theta Kappa Phi of Xi started off the school year with a bang, having pledged one of the largest groups on campus this past fall. During the year they consistently fielded top competition in inter- fraternity athletics. To climax the football season TKP was invited to participate in the Annual Charity Bowl. Together with Kappa Alpha they succeeded in raising more money for the underprivileged chil- dren than ever had been done in the history of the classic. Among its achievements during the fall semester Theta Kappa Phi placed first in the competition for homecoming decorations in fra- ternity division, and also won the $1.000 James A. Noe Trophy for the best decorations on the campus. Some of the annual traditions to which the members look forward are the formal, award banquet, hayride, and South Sea Island party. Theta Kaps are active in many honorary and professional organiza- tions and they participate in many extra-curricular activities. OFFICERS OF WILLIAM J. DORAN. JR. President WOOOIE X. BRAID, JR.

After many dark years the fraternity is once more on its feet on the L.S.U. campus. Through the efforts of several local alumni and members of the chapter the house which has been looked forward to for many years is now in sight. The chapter was especially helped by the tireless efforts of alumni A. R. Johnson, J. T. Owen, and Otis Edwards. Many parties throughout the year highlighted the social calendar. Alpha Gamma was also honored by visits from many national officers during the year. Pi Kappa Alpha was founded at the University of Virginia in 1868, with Alpha Gamma Chapter being chartered at L.S.U. in 1903. Through its 52 years of existence Pi K A has graduated outstanding members into many walks of life. Many of these brothers were present at a reunion of Pi K A alumni at the homecoming game last fall.

The purpose of their affiliation was the dissemination of a friendly pirit among the different fraternities on the campus, the bringing into der fellowship of men commonly possessing the attributes of character, intelligence, culture, and the stimulation of a high idealism among these men. The organization today consists of five members of each national fra- ternity which has established a chapter at Louisiana State University. Members of the national fraternities which have not established chapters at L.S.U. may be invited to join Samurai. Samurai is an honorary social interfraternity and functions mainly as such. The social functions of Samurai are well known and eagerly looked forward to.

WEEK OFFICERS ALLAN GREEN President CLARK FORD Vice-President ED BALL Secretary BRUCE EDRINGTON . ..Treasurer Nu Sigma Nu is a National Medical Fraternity, founded March 2. 1882, at the University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Mich. The local chapter was established in 1951 when a local group, The Caducians, petitioned the National Fraternity. At present there are forty-five chapters in almost all major accredited medical schools in the United States and Canada. Nu Sigma Nu provides a well-rounded social calendar which gives its members a means of relaxation from the scholastic and didactic aspect of Medical School life. More important, it provides its members with fel- lowship and stimulates mutual advances in the study and practice of med- icine. In addition, it provides a common plane whereby the student mem- bers can meet with the faculty alumni to the benefit of both concerned. A highlight of the fraternity ' s activities is the annual lectureship which is eagerly awaited by the respective members and the student body as a whole.

ALPHA OMEGA ALPHA To encourage personal honesty and the spirit of medical research among members of the medical profession, Alpha Omega Alpha was organized at the University of Illinois in 1902, and is the only order of its kind in medical schools on this conti- nent. Beta Chapter of LSU was installed at the Med- ical Center in 1949. Our members are those men and women, who, as undergraduates, have given promise of becoming leaders in their professions, or who later have attained any such leadership, and honorary members physicians who have attained distinction in any worthy line of human endeavor and persons who have gained unusual recognition in fields related to medicine. Each year the organi- zation sponsors a lectureship offering addresses by distinguished members of the medical profession on significant trends in medicine. PHI DELTA EPSILON From its founding at the University of Cornell Medical School in 1904, Phi Delta Epsilon has spread to all major medical schools throughout the country. Beta Omicron Chapter was founded at Louisiana State University School of Medicine at New Orleans in 1938. The purpose of Phi Delta Epsilon is two-fold. Functioning on both an under- graduate and graduate level, it serves to encourage scholarship and fellowship among undergraduates, to promote more concrete relations between under- graduate students and practicing physicians throughout the country, and to insure unity and a high grade of medicine among the physicians of today. To a lesser extent, it serves as a social unit, holding joint initiations and social functions with the Tulane chapter. LEFT TO RIGHT, FIRST Row: Dave Kahn. Ted Smith. John Salvaggio.

GAYNELL GUS TINSLEY CHARLEY McCLENDON Line Coach CLARENCE POP STRANGE freshman Coach The 1954-55 edition of the LSU Tigers, under the football-tutelage of Gaynell Gus Tinsley for the seventh straight year, won five and lost six while meeting 11 top-notch foes, one Saturday after another without an off date. This wasn ' t quite as good as their 5-3-3 record for the ' 53- ' 54 season. The Tinsley men lost to Alabama, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Texas, Kentucky and Georgia Tech while posting wins over highly-rated Florida. Southwest powerhouse Texas Tech, Chattanooga, mighty Arkansas, and traditional rival, Tulane. The Arkansas battle really showed Tiger spirit as a bunch of injured and crippled Bengals beat the conquerors of Ole Miss, 7-6. Ole Miss eventually wound up in the Sugar Bowl. The Tulane game was a real thriller. Despite a wet field, LSU won over the Greenies for the fourth straight year, thus keeping the rag. Harsh criticism ensued the rather dismal football season and LSU authorities an- nounced a shakeup in the athletic department, firing head-coach Tinsley and accepting T. P. Heard ' s resignation. Named to succeed Tinsley was Paul Dietzel, assistant coach at West Point. Highlight of the dark season was the naming of Sid Fournet to practically every major All-American first team, and the selection of Joe Tuminello to the second-string All-SEC. 270 Coaching T. P.

SERGEANT JONES Student Manager ALL AMERICAN ALL AMERICAN SID FOURNET Probably one of the greatest tackles to play for the Old War Skule, Sid Fournet, bright light in a dark football at- mosphere, brought fame aplenty to his Alma Mater by being selected on virtually every major All-American team in the country. Only the Associated Press failed to pick him on their first team. The AP elected him to a second- string berth, however. Sid was named to a second-string spot on a host of All- American squads last year, but realized his ambition this year, being hoonred with a first team position on the myth- ical dream teams of Look, Colliers, INS, NEA, UP and others. His line-play was nothing short of terrific. Outstanding as a tackier, his blocking feats were masterful and flaw- less. Opposing ball-carriers thought twice before agreeing to crack the right side of the LSU line. The 225-pound, four-year letterman received the Ruffin G. Pleasant award for being team captain; the Roberts and Eastland Trophy for the most valuable player, and the George M. Wallace Award for the Tiger having played the most minutes during the season. The former Bogalusa Lumberjack star made an ap- pearance in the Senior Bowl Game, leading the South to a 12-6 victory over the North. Fournet, who closed out his LSU playing days with a superb performance against Tulane, made first string on every All-SEC team chosen. 272 4( THE SQUAD A Bunch of Happy Tigers 1954 Edition 273 L.S.U.

Making good the boast that all things are bigger and better and rougher in Texas. Texas ' All-American candidate. Charlie Brewer guided the massive Texas line and alert backs in a splendid performance. Brewer, Don Maroney and Delano Womack scored for Texas, and the issue was never in doubt. The only thing the Tigers had to shout about, in the way of scoring, was Vince Gonzalez ' long jaunt. Al Doggett. faking nicely and calling good signals, had his two mainstays Chuck Johns and Chico Gonzlaez in fine form. On alternating attempts they took well-executed handoffs and romped for sizeable yardage, to the Texas 44 early in the second half. Then Doggett jammed a well-placed handoff into Gonzalez ' chest and yelled go. With hardly any blocking the obliging Gonzalez jack-rabbited to a touchdown. Fumbling plagued the tigers, but their line play was impressive. Gary Dildy stood out among a host of good linemen including Joe Tuminello. Ed Fogg. Bob Reich. Gerald Schwalb and Sid Fournet.

HOLLAND HOOVER I 275 SAL NICOLO LSU ' s Tigers showed shiny cleats and sparkling white jerseys, but nothing more, and as a result Alabama ' s Chrimson Tide engulfed them to the tune of 12-0. An eagerness to get into the Tide secondary, poorly executed plays, miserable tackling and a general lack of effectiveness hampered the Bengals and they spent most of the night in their own territory. Alabama just had too good a passing attack, and when they didn ' t rely on such passing, their running game looked like a million dollars. The Tigers were lacking in both departments. ' Bama ' s ace down-under man. Bart Starr, passed 15 yards to Corky Tharp for the first TD.

STOLL FIELD. Lexington. Kentucky. Oct. 2 Finding themselves in the middle of a tumble-filled football contest, the Kentucky Wildcats decided to re- i .. er one and turn it into a score, beating the LSU Tigers 7-6. and the clock h 63 seconds. LSI lost three fumbles and Kentucky four. Dickie Prescott, who played a fine football game, hobbled in the fourth quarter, after it seemed sure that the Bengals had the game in the bag. Kentucky proceeded to drive down field, score, and make the extra point, with a minute and 3 seconds remaining. Chuck Johns set up the first Tiger marker with a sizzling 59 yard punt return. From the 16. 0. K. Ferguson got 5 yards in two tries and Don Stinson went for 8 to the one-yard line. Ferguson did the honors. For once, Al Doggett missed the extra point. Dick Mitchell scored the Kentucky touchdown. It was the third straight loss for the Tigers whose passing game was way off par. Doggett and Johns combined to throw a total of 8 passes, completing only one. Dickie Prescott looked very good running 15 plays and eating up 61 yards for a 4.0 average. The Tigers ' running attack looked b etter against Kentucky than it has looked all year statistic-wise, as they picked up 158 yards on the ground compared to 168 for the ' Cats. LAST MINUTE TD ENABLES KENTUCKY WILDCATS TO NIP BENGALS, 7-6 277 SPEEDY GEORGIA TECH TOO MUCH FOR LSU, TUMBLE TIGERS IN FREE SCORING TILT, 30-20 AL DOGGETT GRANT FIELD, Atlanta, Georgia, Oct. 9 The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets stung the LSU Tigers with two deadly damages speed and razzle-dazzle here this afternoon to grind out a high-scoring 30-20 victory. The Bengals took a 6-0 lead in the second quarter when Chuck Johns, at- tempting to sneak over from the two-foot line, fumbled and John Wood re- covered in the end-zone. Al Doggett ' s kick was blocked. Al Doggett flipped a 21-yard pass to Joe Tuminello to set up the second tally. Vincent Chico Gonzalez took it over from the one-yard line. Joe Tuminello scored the final LSU touchdown, taking in a well-thrown pass from Al Doggett. amidst two Tech defenders. Doggett converted twice. Billy Teas, Georgia Tech ' s leading runner, peeled off the game ' s longest run, a 77 yard sprint into scoring territory early in the second quarter, follow- ing the first Tiger score. Larry Ruffin, Henry Hair, and Jimmy Thompson scored for the Yellow Jackets on a 8-yard pitchout run, a 37-yard pass play, and a 15-yard end sweep, respectively. Billy Teas and Don Grant kicked goals after Tech ' s TD ' s. Al Doggett received what Atlanta sportswriters called the biggest standing ovation given an opposing player in quite some time, as he jogged off the field in the fourth quarter. Doggett ' s touchdown pass to Joe Tuminello marked the second time since 1950 that an opposing team has scored through the air against the Yellow Jackets. It was also the first time since 1950 that a team has scored thrice on Tech in regular season play. Stellar tackle play by Gary Dildy and Sid Fournet, good defensive gua rd play by Ted Paris, and exceptionally alert end play by John Wood and Joe Tuminello featured the contest. Everything ' s gonna be all right. Trainer Marty Broussard tells injured Enos Parker. BILLY SHEEHV The Red-Raider prances around the turf of Tiger Stadium Vince Gonzalez lightly fingers a Red Raider in an attempt to bring him down TIGERS SHIFT INTO HIGH GEAR IN LAST QUARTER TO SQUELCH RED RAIDERS, 20-13 TIGER STADIUM. Oct. 16 Chuck Johns, who scored a touchdown in each of the second and third quarters only to see Texas Tech tie it up on snazzy lateral plays, took complete charge of the Tiger football machine in the last quarter and almost single-handedly drove it to a well-deserved 20-13 victory. It was L.S.l Ys first win of the season. The winning marker came, after a down to the wire race with the clock, with just 49 seconds left. Sweeping in from the plains of Lubbock and west Texas, the Red Raiders were literally corralled by the stout Tiger defense, but scored twice on a couple of eye-deceiving lateral pla ?. Johns got his first touchdown in the second quarter as he made his way over right guard from the Tech 3. Doggett missed the conversion. Johns had set up this score with a quick smash over right tackle for 17 yards, earlier in the drive. In the third quarter. Johns ripped through left guard from the 3 again. This time. Doggett kicked goal and the Tigers led. 13-0. Lonnie Graham and Jim Sides scored for Tech via lateral plays when it ap- peared as if Tiger tacklers had stopped the Texas ball carriers. Sides ' lateral play covered 71 yards. Rick Spinks converted for the visitors. In the fourth quarter, the Tigers took a short Tech kick on their own 38. Keeping on the ground, they moved down to the one-yard line. Johns skipped over the Raiders ' left side for the clincher. Doggett converted for good measure. 279 Levi Chuck Johns gallops around right end in the Florida game as All-American Sid Fournet and Lou Deutschmann take out the interference. TIGER STADIUM, Oct. 23 The LSU Tigers continued on the comeback trail when they upset the heavily-favored Florida Gators, 20-7, for their first SEC win. It was the first SEC loss for the Gators, who had previously won three con- ference games in a row. The Bengals put on one of their sharpest performances of the season as Al Doggett, with his nifty passing, and Chuck Johns, with his gazelle-like dashes, thrilled a crowd of approximately 25,000. Doggett pitched a dozen times, hitting on six occasions for a total of 98 yards through the air, and set- ting up all three scores. Johns carried 11 times for 61 yards and a 5.6 average. Vincent Gonzalez and Joe May also looked good in the running department for the Tinsley-men. In the first period Doggett passed from his own 40-yard line to the Florida 30, where end John Wood made a nice catch. Gonzalez and Turner alternated in carrying the oval to the enemy 18. At this point Chuck Johns hauled in a pitchout and scooted to the two-yard line. Gonzalez smashed right guard for the tally. Doggett converted from placement for a 7-0 lead. The Tigers continued to play heads-up ball in the second half. They took the kickoff on their own 26, scoring in just 12 plays. Highlighting the drive was a 30-yard heave from Doggett to Chico Gonzalez. Doggett called his own signal from three yards out, plunging over for the TD. He converted again and the Tigers led 14-0. Doggett engineered the final touchdown with a 32-yard aerial to halfback Don Stinson on the Florida 33. Joe May peeled off a 32-yard gain to the one from where Dickie Prescott sneaked over. Florida scored on a 14-yard run by Brodsky. Bass kicked the extra point. Al Doggett holds on for dear life to score in the Florida tilt. Teammate Ted Paris (on ground to right) seems to be patting him on the back.

Bad breaks, along w ith sloppy pass defense, spelled doom for the Tigers, who couldn ' t push across a score until the clock showed only 41 seconds remaining to be played. The usually effective passing of Al Doggett was not to be found as he completed just two of ten passes for 42 yards. Ole Miss left tackle. Billy Yelverton. scored on a fluke play, grabbing a fumble in the air off the arm of Al Doggett who had faded to pass, and racing 14 yards for the 6-pointer. Jimmy Patton sped 14 yards with a pitchout for the final Reb touchdown. Jimmy Patton kicked the trio of extra points. Sub-quarterback Matthew- Burns passed 16 yards to end Sammy Murphy for the Tiger points, as time was running out in the final quarter. Lou Deutschmann and Dickie Prescott were the leading ground-gainers for the Old War Skule. Big Lou carried seven times for 31 yards and a 4.5 effort.

But the Bengals woke up in time to shove across thet game-winning touchdown and best the oft-beaten Chattanoogans. 26-19. in a weird football fracas witnessed by only 11.000 screaming fans. LSU led 19-0 until the fourth quarter barrage put on by the Tennessee boys, who drew the cheers and praise of even Tiger followers, by their courageous and lightning-like play. In the first quarter, LSU moved 62 yards in 10 plays, Al Doggett hurdling over from the one. Dickie Prescott got the second score on a three-yard plow through center. End Sammy Murphy set up the third score by recovering a ' Nooga fumble on the Moccasin one-yard stripe. Don Stinson bull-dozed across from there. The visitors scored thrice in 8 minutes in the frantic fourth quarter. An 8-yard pass from Dick Durham to Bill Slaudenmaier. Jerry Ward ' s 10-yard scoot up the middle, and a short buck by Durham furnished the Chattanooga scoring. Displaying neither pride nor prejudice, the Tigers simply swarmed back. Al Doggett spied Vince Gonzalez in the Clear on the 2 and flipped a long spiral that the swarthy half-back took on the run for the clincher. Dick Young kicked the Moccasin extra point and Al Doggett converted for the Tigers. 282 MISSISSIPPI STATE MAROONS APPLY KALSOMINE JOB TO TIGERS, 25-0 TIGER STADIUM. Nov. 13 A fast moving halfback named Arthur Davis treated the LSU Tigers like cousins, scoring four times in his team ' s 25-0 shellacking of the Bengals before 20.000 fans. LSU just couldn ' t get going. To make it worse. State picked two passes out of the air and turned them into scores. Davis, brother of Harper Davis who also plagued the Tigers while running wild for the Maroons a few years back, scored on runs of two. six. and one-half yards. He also intercepted a Win Turner pass, bringing it back 35 yards for a touchdown. This marked the third straight year the Maroons have bested the Tigers. Early in the fourth quarter. Jerry Adams. Rutland Hoover and Don Stinson pitched in to take the pigskin down to the enemy 8-yard line. The attack bogged down here, however and State took over on downs. Despite the fact that LSU couldn ' t get a sustained drive rolling. Jerry Adams carried 12 times for 62 yards and a 5.2 average per carry. O. K.

FAIR GROUNDS STADIUM. SHREVEFORT. LA.. Nov. 20 A bunch of injury- riddled LSI Tigers forgot how good the Arkansas Razorbacks were supposed to be and played a slam-bang football game, upsetting the favored ' Porkers 7-6 before 33.000 amazed fans. The Tigers just wouldn ' t be denied. They treated the vaunted Arkansas sin- gle-wing with gross disrespect, while enjoying comparatively good fortune with their T. End Joe Tuminello, in one of his best efforts, harassed the Arkansas passers and stopped their famed end runs cold. Big Sid Fournet paved the way for quick-opening thrusts by 0. K. Ferguson. Joe May and Vince Gonzalez, with the latter playing his best defensive game of the year. In short, all the Tigers played great ball. Arkansas scored first early in the second quarter. A fourth-down 12-yard pass from Buddy Benson to Billy Lyons clicked for the 6 points. Benson then dropped back to kick the placement but failed. With just 28 seconds left in the first half. LSL T scored. Fine runs by Joe May and short passes by Al Doggett put the Tigers on the Pig 4-yard line. Levi Chuck Johns then slid off right tackle into paydirt. A bit of suspense occurred on the try for extra point. Don Stinson. holding for the PAT. fumbled the pass from center but recovered it in time to watch Al Doggett sail the ball through the uprights for the extra point and a well- deserved 7-6 victory. The second half saw LSI giving the Razorbacks numerous scoring chances via fumbles. But the keyed-up Tiger line repulsed threat after threat to come out with their fourth win of the season. The gaint-killing Bengals amassed 227 yards rushing and 40 passing, while holding Arkansas to a mere 103 yards on the ground and 58 in the air. JERRY Dl MAS WIN TURNER 285 Look out. Chuck!

But the sun came out in the second half and the Bengals did likewise, pushing across two scores and converting successfully twice for a 14-13 triumph. Earl Win Turner stepped into the QB slot and did a magnificent job for LSU. He threw 14 passes, completing 8 for 92 yards and 2 touchdowns. The Green Wave scored on runs of 33 and 1 yards respectively. Willie Hof, a slight swivel-hipped 130 pounder, scored first for Tulane when he grabbed a pitchout from wave quarterback John Caruso and out-distanced the secondary for 33 yards and a touchdown. Win Turner ' s dive at the speedster on the Tiger 23, just missed. Emmett Zelenka converted as Tulane led 7-0. Min- utes later, Charlie Pittrnan recovered a Turner bobble on the LSLT 18.

Ferguson lost 4 on the next play but Turner hit Joe Tuminello from the seven on the next play, and they trailed. 13-6. Al Doggett calmly converted. Midway in the final period. Tiger strategy came into its own. Vincent Chico Gonzalez took a lateral and dropped back to pass. It was his first toss of the season and a beauty that end John Wood grabbed in on the Tulane 12. The play covered 45 yards. Chuck Johns then knifed off guard for three precious yards to the 9. Win Turner spotted Joe Tuminello on the 2. pegged him with a perfect strike and the big end scampered across standing up. Al Doggett cooly backed up and booted a perfect kick for the extra point and a 14-13 win. JOE TTMINELLO Co, O.K., Co O. K.

But Coach Harry Rabenhorst, in his 29th year as head basketball mentor, with the capable assistance of assistant coach John Chaney guided the Tigers through a season sparked with hustle, determination and spirit, if not with victories. Faced with the return of only nine lettermen including regulars Don Belcher. Ned Clark and Norman Magee. the problem was to find the best five boys for the job. Roger Sigler proved to be the Tiger dark horse. Sigler, sophomore sen- sation and leading scorer, sparked a quintet that boasted such fine personnel as Norman Magee, Ned Clark, Jim McNeilly and Joe Fahey. Sigler was perfection. His rebounding and set-shooting were excellent. Againt the Tulane Greenies the first time, the Bengal ace poured 14 straight foul shots through the hoops, missing not a single one. Ned Clark was shifted to center to provide added height for the locals, who were badly in need of it. Clark ' s rebounding and rough-and-tumble play under the basket showed the fans the reason he is regarded as one of the top players in the SEC. As usual Norman Magee was steady and dependable at the guard position. 288 Magee leaps and it ' s in for 2 points while McNeilly pauses to look JIM McNEILLY Forward DON BELCHER Forward The moment of suspense will it. or won ' t it count ' ' .

His performances against Kentucky, Tulane and Alabama were fabulous. In the ' Bama game, he netted 19 points. Don Belcher, Bill Lee, Troy Rushing, Paul Whitey Zinser, Les Skippy Jones and Charles Whitehurst, all aided the Tiger cause. In one of the most exciting games played in the John M. Parker Agricultural Center in some time, LSU bowed to the kingpins of basketball, the Kentucky Wildcats, 64-62, but not before a packed-house nearly passed into hysteria over the expert shooting, fine ballhawking, and smooth floor-game demon- strated by the home-team. All in all, the sincere will-to-win attitude permeated every contest, and the Tiger hoopsters of 1954-55 were one of the finest-spirited aggregations ever to don the Purple and Gold of LSU.

At the time of this writing, the boxing team was preparing for a road trip with Oklahoma. Wisconsin, and Houston. The culmination of it all was to be the NCAA Tournament slated for Pocatello, Idaho, April 1-3. Beginning with the Sugar Bowl held in New Orleans, which could be con- sidered a home bout, the boxers of Coach J. T. Owen registered successive wins over Maryland. Oklahoma. Virginia, Houston. Idaho State and Wash- ington State. The season was marked by the visit from the Houston Cougars, coached by former LSU boxer, Danny Orsak. The home team treated the Orsak-tutored Cougars like they had a priority on their boxing talents, slapping them 8-0. in their finest showing. Coach J. T. Owen began his ninth year at the head of boxing fortunes here at LSU. The brain behind Tiger brawn was helped along by excellent per- formances from Bobby Freeman, Johnny Stiglets, Johnny Dusenberry, Andy Moo Moo Sciambra, Bobby Pisarich, Bill Clayton. Gary Bowden. and Crow Peele. Freeman continued his steady and popular brand of fighting. Johnny Stiglets earned the title of unofficial 132-pound champion by besting Vince Palumbo. last year ' s NCAA titilist. Johnny Dusenberry, out of Tulsa. Oklahoma, gave the fans a look at a rough-house, fast-and-furious type of boxing. Andy Moo Moo Sciambra put on dazzling exhibitions of ring prowess, bobbing, weaving, and in general fighting his way into the hearts of Tiger followers. Bobby Pisa- rich used the counter-punch to best advantage, scoring six straight victories. Bill Clayton got his long-sought victory and one to boot. He also fought some good draws. Gary Bowden became a TKO artist, getting four. His slow starts climaxed by fast third-round finishes furnished many a thrill in the Ag Center. And Crow Peele well Crow Peele beat two NCAA champs. The literally mur- derous Peele had trouble finding opponents worthy of his talents. And when he did find capable foes, they didn ' t last long. So went the story of LSU ' s pugilists of ' 55.

GOLF Before the start of the current golf season, each one of Coach Mike Barbato ' s linksmen vowed to win a tournament first place. As of now, three of the Tiger golfers have kept their word. Johnnie Pott, junior, was the first Bengal to pick up tourna- ment laurels, grabbing a first place in the Baton Rouge Ama- teur Open. In this tourney, Tommy Beard placed fourth and Scotty Frazier finished fifth. Then Scotty Frazier came through to take honors in the Gulf Coast Open in Gulfport, Mississippi. Finally. Jimmy Mangum picked up a first place in the Shreveport Country Club Invitational Tournament. As if one title weren ' t enough. Pott came back to blast a sizzling 68. new record for the course, and capture the Crayfish Tournament at Napoleon- ville. Twice during the season, the golfers bested Tulane ' s golf- ers by large scores. At this writing, the Tiger linksmen are currently leading the field in the Southe astern Conference Golf Tournament. Though the Bengals lost Eddie Merrins and Tommy Mor- row, two of the best golfers of the South, Coach Barbato can heap nothing but praise on such top-notch performers as Captain Cecil Calhoun, Tommy Beard, Scotty Frazier, Jimmy Mangum, David Rheams, and Johnnie Pott.

Coach W. T. Dub Robinson lost Captain and No. 1 player Charley Pitts. No. 2 man Paul Young. No. 3 player David Rosen- baum. and No. 5 ranked Otto Engleman. However, he has returning veterans Ronnie Fenasci. Buddy Tudor. Benton Preslar. Walter Cockerham and Milton Walker. Fenasci and Preslar are the fourth and fifth ranking SEC players. Cockerham is the 1954 Baton Rouge Men ' s Singles Champion. Walker is a returning service veteran and a former No. 1 Varsity player. Tudor is this year ' s captain. With a little luck. Coach Robinson ' s boys could come through on top and thus end a losing streak to the Tulane Creenies that has plagued them for three years.

B E B JOHN PETTIS Catcher AL KLING Pitcher As we write this, the 1955 LSU baseball team is just two games away from completing one of its most disastrous and win-less seasons. Coach Harry Rabenhorst ' s warriors just haven ' t been able to come up with a winning combination, but they have demonstrated hustle and determination to win in spots. High mark of the season was big Lou Deuthchmann ' s grand slam home run that spelled victory over the Tulane Grecnies and broke an 11-game losing streak. Inspired by this, the rest of the Bengal team went on to take the second game of the Tulane series so things weren ' t so bad after all! Seniors Jimmy Choate.

THE WESLEY FOUNDATION The Wesley Foundation, the organization of Methodist preference students on campus, has a philosophy of administering to the whole student that is, we feel that our first duty is to strengthen the spiritual side of the student, but at the same time, we recognize the importance of the social and intellectual phases of his life. With this aim in mind the Wesley General Council composed of thirty students work- ing with the Director, Rev. Mr. Ray deHainaut. try to provide a program that will fill the needs of the most students. To illustrate a typical week ' s program: on Sunday. Church School for the four college classes, worship service at University Methodist Church, student-prepared supper, ves- pers, Camaraderie fellowship after church; on Tuesday, the Philosophers ' Study Group; on Wednesday, speakers, forums, and discussions with the purpose of inter- preting the Christian faith on the college campus; on Thursday Bible study; on Friday. Guys and Dolls also How-to-Do-It time; on Saturday, Wesley Choir rehearsal. In addition we have: regular monthly parties with themes like, Olympic Party, Circus Party, Skits-o-frenia, and Secret Love Party; cell groups: deputations to local churches : Wesley Wonders, the athletic teams ; dramas by the Wesley Players : the first Wesley yearbook; two annual retreats; the Wesleyan, the student newspaper: and the Student Lounge and TV room for relaxation.

Boasting veterans from the last three major wars, the Univer- sity Veterans ' Club is the newest and largest men ' s organization at LSU. The club was founded to assist veterans with the prob- lems attendant to their return to school and to provide them with an opportunity to participate in organized social, recreational and athletic activities. During the Club ' s first year it was one of the most active groups on the campus. Beside the numerous activities it spon- sored for campus veterans, the club was also instrumental in pro- moting greater student interest and participation in campus af- fairs and in enhancing the reputation of the university. With the anticipated increase in veteran enrollment, it is ex- pected that the University Veterans ' Club will provide an even greater and more varied program of activities suited to the in- terests of campus veterans and will continue to be a constructive voice in campus affairs.
