THE ADMINISTRATORS Within the academic setting of any university must lie a well-organized administrative staff, for upon their shoulders falls the important responsibility of building a greater L.S.U. The Dean of the University is in charge of coordi- nating the academic programs of the colleges and schools, approving appointments of academic per- sonnel, and supervising preparation of Univer- sity catalogues and bulletins. As chief business and financial officer of the University, the Dean of Administration is responsible for assisting the President in preparing the budget, supervising all financial reports, and preparing inventories of University property. The Dean of Men and the Dean of Women are concerned with foster- ing students ' adjustment and development in all phases of life outside the classroom. They also advise student organizations and offer individual counseling to students. Daniel Berth, dean of administration. ADMINISTRATORS Arden O. French, dean of men. Helen Gordon, dean of women. Ik - -- LAW AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY Law students participating in the Moot Courts held twice a year gain valuable experience for their future work. The primary objective of the Law School is to pre- pare students for the practice of law in Louisiana, where the civil system prevails. The students not only are taught the fundamental legal principles, but also are given a broad understanding of the application of these principles in today ' s society. Practical experience is gained twice a year through participation in Moot Courts, that is, mock court cases in which there are hypo- thetical witnesses and incidents. During the fall, law stu- dents, armed with canes and derbies, leave their studies to attend the football games en masse. This year the Capitol House Roof was the scene of the Barristers ' Ball on December 7. The student lounge is an ideal place to relax and enjoy informal discussions between classes. Future lawyers can be found studying in the book-lined Law Library at all hours. OFFICERS: Thomas Tanner, vice president; Glacial Ray Cox, secretary-treasurer; Milton M. Harrison, dean; John Callaspy, president. The Medical School is located in downtown New Orleans, away from the main University campus. The student ' s first two years are spent here, chiefly in the lecture rooms and laboratories, learning basic scientific background, while his latter two years are spent largely in the wards and clinics of Charity Hospital. Following in- ternship, some choose to spend several years studying a particular medical specialty, while others enter general practice. But, there is a lighter side. Football season finds many going to Baton Rouge for the Saturday night game or to private and fraternity parties. The two main social events are: the Cadaver Ball, celebrating the successful (for some) completion of the freshman first semester, and the student-faculty banquet in May. Hansel Janet and Sam Simeone examine a patient, while they are on Accident Room duty. AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY Freshmen study the bones of the foot during anatomy lab. Diligent juniors prepare for final examinations. Dean WUliam W. Frye, M.D. Dr. Spencer performs pediatric surgery. Students observe Dr. Berenson and associates in a medical conference. This graduate student, concen- trating in music, plays a rather unusual instrument, the bassoon. A graduate student in plant pa- thology studies the nature and cause of plant diseases, especial- ly of Louisiana plants like cane. GRADUATE SCHOOL LEFT TO RIGHT: Richard J. Russell, dean; Nathaniel M. Caffee, chairman of the graduate council; Homer L. Hitt, associate dean. AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY Devoted to the pursuit of higher knowledge in the particular fields chosen by its students, the Graduate School of L.S.LJ. is separated from the hustle and bustle of the undergraduate colleges. All graduate courses are planned to develop mental initiative and independent thinking on the part of the students. This is done by lectures and by training in the use ef the library and laboratory facilities of the University; that is, the gradu- ate student spends most of his time working on his thesis and dissertation. As the enrollment of the gradu- ate school is steadily increasing, it seems as if more stu- dents today are interested in specialized training. Dr. Earl E. Klein, the faculty, and students enjoy a tea during the festive Christmas season. The School of Social Welfare was established in 1937 to provide professional education for social work on the graduate level. It also provides, in cooperation wiih other colleges of the University, undergraduate courses for social work and other service-related voca- tions. The professional curriculum of the school is de- signed to provide, through classrooms and field in- struction, knowledge and understanding of the social welfare services, of human growth and behavior, and of social work practice. It prepares social workers for po- sitions in child welfare, family case work, and psychiatric social work. SOCIAL WELFARE Students gain knowledge of human growth and behavior through field work placement. AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY A student social worker helps a housewife solve her problems. Dr. Earl E. Klein, director Sophomore nursing students enjoy practice session in the nursing dem- onstration room. Students in a course for supervisors evaluate a nursing care plan. Students in the nursing program divide their time between the classroom and field experience, the latter bringing them into direct contact with patients and clients in nursing homes, hospi- tals, public health agencies, and a variety of other community agencies. As nurses work with people who have health problems, they must understand people of all ages. Students spend the first three semesters and a summer session on the main campus, after which they transfer to the School of Medicine in New Orleans. The department has headquarters in New Orleans but maintains an office in Peabody Hall and a demonstration room in the infirmary. Rosemary Karse, first graduate of L.S.U. ' s new B.S. in Nursing program, demonstrates a public health nursing home visit. Junior nursing student, wearing the uniform specially designed for L.S.U. nursing students, shows that play is a part of nursing children. Miss Gibbs and an assistant instruct a beginning group in piano. Dr. Everett Timm, director, and Ramon Espinosa, presi- dent. MUSIC AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY The School of Music is a laboratory where students as individuals and groups are guided toward mastery of the arts: as a means of artistic self-expression, as an ob- jective of aesthetic contemplation, and as a mode of in- telligent cultural living. The school, furthermore, aims to provide opportunities to the greatest possible number of students -to share in the heritage of the musical cul- ture of the human race and, in turn, to contribute to this culture. Some of the annual activities sponsored by the school are operas, musical clinics, and concerts. Oscar P. Barnes, assistant band director, leads the varsity band as they rehearse for their annual program of Christ- mas music S3 Thg College of Agriculture is well equipped for con- ducting its research and instructional program, as its farms are provided with barns, silos, milking and feed- ing sheds, and other necessary buildings. AGRICULTURE AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY OFFICERS: Travis Burnett, vice president; Norman J. Ef- ferson, dean; Frank Bonner, president; Cecilia Marks, secretary-treasurer. Students from all parts of Louisiana, from most of the states in the nation, and from numerous foreign countries study on the Baton Rouge campus for careers in the many professions open to graduates in agriculture, home economics, forestry, and vocational education. Sup ported by state and federal appropriations, the College of Agriculture conducts research through the Agricul- tural Experiment Stations and carries information di- rectly to the farm families through the Agricultural and Home Economics Extension Service. The objectives of the College are to give students a well-balanced educa- tion in agriculture and related fields of study, and to provide cultural experiences for the full development of the individual. F. E. Bliss shows one of L.S.U. ' s prize-winning sheep at the Louisiana Livestock and Pasture Festival in Marks- ville. Student in a home economics sewing class stitches the seams in the skirt of her dress. Maybe it will be a chemise. ARTS AND SCIENCES AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY I Student in an advanced sculptor class uses his creative talent to transform a shapeless block into an object of beauty. For students studying such sciences as bo- tany and zoology, a thorough knowledge of the microscope is an absolute necessity. The primary purpose of the College ot Arts and Sciences is to offer students a liberal education. It should give the student some knowledge of the achievements of the human mind; of the historical and cultural back- grounds essential to a true understanding of our world; and, above all, of orderly thinking processes, and of a scale of values by which he can distinguish the im- portant from the trivial. As a human being and citizen, he will find this training of lasting significance. As a member of a profession, he will find here desirable backgrounds for scholarship and teaching in many fields of knowledge. The murals in Allen Hall, which were painted by former L. S. U. students, represent various as- pects of life in Louisiana. Recording tapes in the foreign language lab aid stu- dents in acquiring good pronounciation and diction. OFFICERS: Simone Walker, secretary -treasurer; Tim Mc- Namara, representative; Cecil G. Taylor, dean; Jan Hill, vice president; Jim Guirard, president. In a microchemical analysis lab students study the application of general microtechnics to the analy- sis of chemical compounds. ' H BRITTLE DUCTILE S n ?I S (VB VI V1B Vlj IB [ lit A ' gJMJM MJtU.

Chemistry students do not spend all their time in labs, as lectures are also a necessary part of their edu- cation. OFFICERS: Clifton Hill, secretary-treasur- er; Sam Lott, vice president; Dale Head- rick, president; Arthur R. Choppin, dean. Long hours spent in the aromatic laboratories of Coates and Nicholson Halls enable students in the College of Chemistry and Physics to gain a thorough and practical knowledge in the fundamentals of science. A broad basic background in the social sciences and humanities is also required, as it is necessary for the development of any educated person. This work in class- rooms and laboratories is supplemented by field work and intimate contact with a number of active research programs sponsored by agricultural, industrial, and governmental agencies. The departments strive to give students the fundamentals necessary both for an ap- preciation of modern science and for advanced study. .Students are thus trained to hold responsible positions in industry and scientific research. Charles Burlo, reparing glass equipment for the Chemistry and Physics Department, is one of the few glass blowers in Louisiana. Freshmen gain practical experience in this laboratory course in fundamental chemical operations. This is only the begin- nng of many labs for those who plan to continue their studies in chemistry. CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS AT LOUISIANA STATE COMMERCE AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY Student in a business administration lab studies the practical use of statistics. An essential machine in any business office is the cal- culator. These students in office management learn the proper operation of various office machines. People who always associate lab with science are often surprised to find that Commerce students also must spend long hours in business administration, econo- mics, and accounting labs. Commerce courses are de- signed to allow ' students a wide range in selecting the particular field of business in which they wish to special- ize, though a large part of the work is prescribed. The division of research is organized to study the industrial and commercial resources of Louisiana and to provide training for students in business research. The Louisiana Business Review, a summary of business condi- tions in the state, is published monthly. In the spring t he Commerce Honors Convocation is held to honor outstanding students for their hard work and numerous achievements in academic and student activities. OFFICERS: William D. Ross, dean; Nelda Barnett, secre- tary-treasurer; Allan Kaufman, president; Jim Welch, vice president. Commerce students spend long hours working, checking, and rechecking their accounting problems. , -; - - , c V .

EDUCATION AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY Student teachers are often amazed at the number and kinds of ques- tions their inquisitive pupils can ask. i a popular course for men students in Health and Physical Education. Education is the means of preserving our culture and preparing others to carry learning forward. America is faced with the task of supplying its crowded schools with an adequate supply of qualified teachers. L.S.U. ' s School of Education is striving to overcome this prob- lem b turning out well-trained teachers. Knowing that experience is the best teacher, even for the teacher, directed instruction has become a standard feature of the School of Education ' s technique. Practical experience in the public schools of Baton Rouge is required of all those seeking teaching certifi- cates. Ed School students realize that the education of future generations is in their hands and the quality of tomorrow ' s world depends on how well they perform their task. OFFICERS: Barbara Doherty, vice president; Betsy Ross, president; Edward B. Robert, dean; Carol Deer, secre- tary-treasurer. Student teachers are given the opportunity to gam practical experience in tne university laboratory School. ENGINEERING AT LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY r This Kroma-Tog is the latest in liquid and gas analyzers. A familiar sight to all students on the campus is the tripods and red and white poles of the engineering students, indus- triously surveying the Memorial Oak Grove and surrounding grounds. In die College of Engineering students take courses with such terrihing names as thermodynamics, hydrology, intern- al combustion engine, phase behavior of hydrocarbon systems, and the inevitable calculus. By no means is this an easy field to enter, as the average I.Q. of students in engineering has been found to be higher than that of students in any of the other col- leges on the L.S.U. campus. The College of Engineering strives to provide its students with the best training possible for their future work in respon- ible positions in the engineering profession. The lectures and classroom work are supplemented by work in the field, the drafting room, and the laborato n .

Students in sugar engineering study sugar house operation and control. This cane is going into the sugar manufacturing plant to be pro- cessed. JUNIOR DIVISION The Junior Division provides tor the special needs of students entering the University tor the first time and guides them in their work for this first year. During Freshman Week, L.S.U. ' s freshmen receive a well-planned orientation program of placement tests, convocations, student center open houses and social activities. Freshmen seem to take an optimistic view of life, even though they are go- ing to afternoon classes. OFFICERS: Joan Anderson, vice president; Fritz Miller, president; John A. Hunter, dean; Bill Bradford, representative; Susan Tucker, secretary- treasurer. Happy that dog days are over, treshmen line up to begin the activities of Freshman Day. Close supervision is given the J.D. students, as this is a time of decision for those who have not definitely decid- ed on future plans. On Freshman Day coeds and cadets of the Junor Division run up the freshman flag under the American colors and reign over the campus, while the upper-classmen bear their usual classes. But, oh, how we could harmonize! Wearing pajamas to the first football game doesn ' t seem to affect the enthusiasm of these freshmen boys. STUDENT GOVERNMENT Student government at Louisiana State University plays an important part in the affairs of the Uni- versity community, as it is both helpful and beneficial to our student body in preserving and furthering rep resentative government and in co-ordinating the com- mon objectives of the students and administration. The purposes of our student government are to provide a laboratory of experience whereby students participate in self-government and in the University ' s general commu- nitv affairs, to give students an opportunity to direct certain activities of their own, and to encourage the prac- tice of responsible citizenship. In accomplishing the above purposes, the University has approved the Student Body Constitution, which sets forth the responsibilities, authorities, and procedures of the various aspects of our student government. The legislative powers of stu- dent government are vested in the Student Council and Student Senate: executive powers in the President, Vice President, and Coed Vice President of the Student Body, the Student Council, and Student Senate; judicial pow- ers, in the Honor Council and Election Board. Ed Sylvest, student body vice president. Fred Hartdegen, student body president. Jeanette Pellerin, coed vice president. SEATED: Frank Bonner, Luiz Prado, Fritz Miller, Milan Turk, Betsy Ross, John Gallaspy, Dale Headrick, Merryl Wright, Bob Mclntyre, Tommy Mathieu, Jim Guirard, Tim McNamara, Bill Bradford, Alan Kaufman, Ramon Espinosa. STANDING: Jeanette Pellerin, Fred Hartdegen, Ed Sylvest. Roberta Carroll and Mary Ann Neff decor- ate a bulletin board tor World University Service. The officers and members of the Student Council, a basic unit of student self-government, are elected an- nually by popular vote. It is the responsibility of these students to represent their respective colleges and to di- rect the affairs of the student body in a manner that re- flects the desires of individual students in the college community. The Council makes recommendations to the University Administration and attempts through its program to contribute to the University ' s progress. During the past year the Council supported the Campus Chest Drive, sponsored the Four Freshmen show, and awarded trophies for Homecoming decora- tions. In addition, it improved the Student Insurance plan, changed the Freshman Day program, and revised the Student Body Constitution. STUDENT COUNCIL All college officers except the presidents comprise the Student Senate, a legislative group that serves in an advisory position to the Council. Under the leadership of the vice president of the student body, it attempts to solve student problems and to promote the general welfare of the students in cooperation with the Council and the administration. During the past year the Senate supported the Cam- pus Chest Drive, sponsored a series of all-campus dances, and wo rked to extend telephone hours. Ed S lvest, president, and Peter Quirk, speaker.

STANDING: Ben Mil- ler, Jimmy Taussig. HONOR COUNCIL John Hussey, moderator. The Honor Council, another important branch of student government, is composed of one representative from each college appointed by the president of the student body. The Law School ' s representative serves as moderator. Powers of the Council are to interpret the Constitution, to hear appeals from decisions of the Elec- tion Board, to determine the guilt or the innocence of any student who is charged with actions which would bring discredit upon him or the student body, and to impose a suitable punishment for such violations. Most of these cases involve cheating, theft and destruction of student property, and disorderly conduct. Through the work of Honor Council and its recognized college honor systems, a high standard of conduct and honor is set for University students. INTER-DORMITORY COUNCIL Inter-dormitory Council is a legislative body com- posed of the vice-presidents of each women ' s dormi- tory and representatives from each house council. the central governing group in each residence hall on campus. The Chairman of the Council is elected by all women in the residence halls every fall. Miss Jane Swan. Coordinator of Women ' s Residence Hall Activities, began her work with the group in the fall. The Council is designed to promote the general welfare of women students in residence through continuous study and evaluation of both old and new regulations. The Council recommends to the Dean of Women any changes in residence hall regulations. Serving as a direct line of communication between the Dean of Women and women ' s residence halls, the Council reflects the collective thinking of all resident women. It insures close cooperation and fellowship among the residents of the different dormitories, creates mutual interests among them, and develops projects beneficial to the students.

The Board has the power to hear all cases con- cerning women students diat involve infractions of rules not coming under the jurisdiction of the Uni- versity Disciplinary Committee. It hears any cases involving infractions of dormitory rules referred to it by the House Council or by the Dean of Women. The power to hear such cases includes the power to impose any penalties short of suspension or expul- sion from the University, and also includes die pow- er to recommend suspension or expulsion to die proper University authorities. All members of die Judicial Board must maintain an over-all C average in order to hold their posi- tions as members of die Board. 69 Barbara Thomas, Annie Boyd; Sally Robert, Louise Garig; Jane Quillen, Highland; Jane Swan, Coordinator of Women ' s Residence Halls Activities; Ann Hawkins, Evangeline. FRESHMAN ADVISORS In the eyes of the University, freshman advisors play a vital part in the orientation program for new students, as they represent L. S. U. in a personal way to each freshman girl and familiarize her with its objectives, its opportunities, its facilities, its history, traditions, standards, and customs. To the freshman student, they are hostess, information bureau, leader, and counselor, as they assist her to make a satisfactory adjustment to University life. For these rea- sons the advisors are selected with great care. Each year outstanding women students are invited by the Dean of Women to become freshman advisors, after they have been recommended by upperclass students, deans, and faculty and staff members on the basis of creditable scholastic rec- ords, active interest in campus affairs, and attitudes of ap- preciation for University standards and policies.

PROCTORS The proctor system was inaugurated in the men ' s resi- dence halls during the period of World War II. essentially as a men ' s leadership organization. Proctors are chosen by a special committee from applications submitted by inter- ested junior and senior men students. They are selected on the basis of scholastic rating, character, and interest in the program. Chief functions of the proctors are to provide leadership in the promotion of a high standard of personal conduct, to assist the general administration of the residence halls, and to cooperate with other student groups in the pro- motion of worthwhile all-campus activities. Each proctor is responsible for the personal conduct of students on his floor. Higher standards of personal living have resulted through the system ' s development.

U. was estab- lished to help maintain the finest standards of conduct among women students, to unify the work of various wom- en ' s organizations on campus, and to promote the general welfare of all women students. A. W. S. has the privilege and responsibility of participating in the formation of Uni- versity regulations governing women students. Its member- ship consists of all regularly enrolled undei graduate women with graduate women students and women faculty mem- bers, as associate members. Each year the group sponsors a leadership conference and administers a point system which regulates the number of offices a woman student may hold in campus activities. The executive powers of A. W. S. are vested in the regu- larly elected officers and in the Advisory Board; legislative powers, in the Governing Council; and judicial powers, in the Judicial Board. LATIN AMERICAN COUNCIL Established soon after the Pan American House was of- ficially inaugurated in 1942, The Latin American Council has worked in behalf of friendlier relations between North American and Latin American students by promoting both cultural and social activities that favor the Good Neighbor policy. Selected in the spring of the year by the popular vote of all the Latin American students on the campus, the Council discusses and acts on issues concerning the Latin American students and takes an active part in every phase of campus activities. The President of the Council serves as an ex- officio member of the Student Council. The work of the Council is culminated each year with the Latin American Fiesta. During the dance the queen ' s identity is revealed, and members of the Council escort the queen and her court during coronation ceremonies. The Fiesta is a popular social event attended by a large number of University students.

OMICRON DELTA KAPPA PHIL HABLUTZEL President JAMES GUIRARD Vice President JOHN A. HUNTER Secretary Omicron Delta Kappa, national leadership honor society for men, was founded in 1914 at Washington and Lee University to recognize outstanding achievement in scholar- ship, athletics and military, student government, social and religious affairs, and the fine arts. Alpha Nu Circle was established at L. S. U. in 1933. Twice a year the society taps for membership a select group of men from the stu- dent body, the faculty, and the administration. Not only does ODK constitute the highest honor for men at L. S. U., but it also provides a forum of faculty, adminis- tration, and student leaders for the discussion of University and community problems. FIRST Row: Robert Brooks, Robert Ells, James Guirard.

New York, by a group of delegates from four campuses. At the present time, there are ninetv-cight chapters throughout the United States. The original honor society of senior women at L. S. U. was the Blazers, founded during the session of 1921-22. In 1934. Blazer Chapter was installed as a Mortar Board chapter. This year, as in the past. Mortar Board co-sponsored with Omicron Delta Kappa the annual Leadership Convo- cation. Each year the chapter presents a cup to the girl who, in the opinion of the chapter, is the Outstanding Freshman Girl for the preceding year. As a pan of its program of en- couraging scholarship. Mortar Board gives a Smarty Par- ty honoring junior women who have maintained at least a 2.0 average for their first two years. In the spring comes the Honors Day Convocation, at which time Mortar Board caps the girls who will com- prise next year ' s chapter. These junior women are elected to the society on the basis of their scholarship, leadership, and service to the University and the community.

This has been a busy year for the staff starting last summer when work was officially begun at the Benson Print- ing Company in Nashville, Tennessee. There, the plans were drawn up for each section of the book. In the course of the year there followed many letters and frantic tele- phone calls between Baton Rouge and Nashville to keep everything running smoothly. Dan Eadie, the GUMBO ad- vi sor at Benson, made several trips to L. S. U. to check the progress of the book. In September, the Publications Board selected seven junior editors to complete the staff headed by Cecilia Marks, editor, and Ann Gill and Mary Jane Fuller, associ- ate editors. The freshman staff was appointed and the real job of producing a top notch annual was begun. The next few months were hectic ones for the staff as pictures were scheduled and rescheduled, and copy was written, checked, ANN GILL and MARY JANE FULLER, associate editors CECILIA MARKS, editor and rewritten. Confusion reigned supreme the day some senior pictures were discovered in the graduate section, but everything was straightened out, and the staff breathed a sigh of relief. The Beauty section was handled by Ann Gill, who had to plan the Darling preliminaries, supervise the Gumbo Ball and schedule pictures for all beauties and favorites. The whole staff turned out to serve coffee and cookies to the judges and nominees at the preliminaries. There was a bad moment when it looked as if there wouldn ' t be enough coffee to go around, but more was found, and it all turned out right in the end. After this the next big job was getting Gumbo Ball planned. With the help of Gene Quaw, the stage set and presentation ceremony of Darling, beauties, and favorites turned out beautifully. Again, the entire staff R. H. WIGGINS, GUMBO advisor The staff comes to the office at the L Building every afternoon for hours of hard work. ft GUMBO STAFF - Is it twins ? No, just Tom Harvey, our busy GUMBO photographer. Linda Johnson and Kay Lewis, junior editors, look through one of our exchange annuals. Stan Si clcr, incd school editor, hard at work at his office in New Orleans. put their shoulders together to decorate the gym armory and get all last minute problems ironed out. The Activity section was the responsibility of Mary Jane Fuller. This meant she had to see that the photographer got to all the dances, programs, and other activities that happened to come up and these were many. Barbara Byrd took charge of the Honoraries and Who ' s Who sec- tions, Scheduling these pictures was certainly no easy job. Marian Failor had charge of the Publications and Student Centers, while Linda Johnson handled the Professional and Medical societies. The Military and Class sections kept Kay Lewis busy. Dianne McLeod had the responsibility of the Administration, Colleges, and Student Government. Su- zanne Russell and Bob Sattcrthwaite took care of the Greeks and Athletics, respectively. The freshman staff, composed of Charlie Meriwether, Julie Riffe, Jane Knoepp, and Lee Edwards worked hard helping whichever of the junior cdi- tors needed them. Perhaps our busiest staff member was our harried photographer. Tom Harvey, who took almost every picture in the GL ' MBO. All work was under the able direc- tion of Cecilia Marks. Mr. Wiggins, our advisor, gave inval- uable assistance along with advice and encouragement. At last came the long waited day when the 1958 GUM- BOS arrived and a year of hard, but sometimes hilarious, work was ended. Although there were many headaches along with our good times, none of us would trade this experience for anything.

REVEILLE A laboratory for training future newspapermen and women, the Daily Reveille chronicles campus events four days a week, Tuesday through Friday. The editorial office in Alumni Hall buzzes like any city newsroom from early morning until 1 1 p.m. It is the focal point for reporters, photographers, seven editors, and a cartoonist. Newsgathering is done by journalism students who cover their assigned beats as a requirement in advanced reporting. JIM CHUBBUCK. sports editor The Reveille, in a general staff meeting, plans the semester ' s issues. News editors copyread stories, write headlines, and dummy copy in on sheets which have previously been dummied with advertising copy. Three students get practical experi- ence in selling advertising for the Reveille. The deadline is 4 a.m. on each day of publication. In the L Building are located the linotypes, makeup and handset- ting equipment, an engraving department, and an offset press which prints and fo!ds 12,000 tabloid-sized newspapers an hour. The offset press prints a sharper cleaner page than the old letter press which was replaced last year. Editorial policy is determined by the student staff which enjoys complete freedom of the press within the bounds of responsible journalism and good taste.

JIM CAPEL, editor ANNUAL RING This year ' s Annual Ring is the 20th anniversary edition of the yearbook of the School of Forestry. The format has been changed in this edition in order to show prospective students the practical side of forestry education and work. Circulation has been doubled so that copies can be sent to the career counselors in Louisiana high schools. Words and pictures depict the activities of the forestry students sum- mer camp, field day, lab sessions, parties, and picnics. A section showing graduates at work acquaints students with working situations encountered in the field. It is hoped that this edition will show the accomplishments of the school for the past year, give prospective students an idea of what to expect, and remind alumni of old times. 108 DELTA Delta, the student literary magazine, was first published twelve years ago. In it each year appear the best poems, short stories, essays, and pictures of the student body. De- signed to encouraged creative expression throughout the University, the works included represented all departments The staff, too. being made up of students majoring in Eng- lish. French, government, history, music, fine arts, and edu- cation, represents all parts of the University. From the manuscripts it receives, the staff chooses the works which will be published. In the past, stories first published in Delta have found a place in national publica- tions, and its contributors have become professional auth- ors. The staff, with Bob O ' Brien as editor and Dr. John Vildman as faculty advisor, plans to put the magazine on sale early in May.

HOME EC CLUB SYLVIA HALF-EN President JANICE BREEDEN Vice President RAYMOND RESWEBER Secretary SHELLY JONES Treasurer The Home Economics Club proves to all that there can be a professional spirit in a field that many think of as woman ' s second nature. These girls are doing much more than learning to cook and sew the laymen ' s idea of home economics. They concentrate in fields of foods and nutrition, textiles and clothing, commercial demonstra- tion, merchandising, dietetics, and ap- plied art. They work individually and together for development of them- selves and their art. Various activities of the College of Agriculture help to take up these girls ' spare time the Ag Jamboree, the spring rodeo booths, and the home- coming barbeque. AG.

The Block and Bridle Club was founded at LSU in 1933 with the intention of promoting interest in agriculture, and especially livestock, among college students. This is still the predominant purpose, as is proven by the Little Inter- national showmanship contest and the college-wide fall judging contest. The club also gives financial support to the animal industry judging team, which, incidentally, usu- ally includes several Block and Bridle members. One of the most entertaining activities of the year is the selection of a rodeo queen to reign over the all-student fall rodeo. Here the long hours of field house training the boys get every day finally pay off, as they compare notes and make their difficult choice.

PHI CHI FRANK AGEE President MIKE HALPHEN Vice President CHARLES BORNE Secretary WILTON BERGERON Treasurer Lambda Sigma is one of the fifty-eight chapters of Phi Chi International, founded in March, 1889, at the Univer- sity of Vermont. Lambda Sigma of Phi Chi was established at the L. S. U. School of Medicine in 1932. Included in the annual social activities of the fraternity are the Phi Chi Bougalie Ball, a spring formal, a senior banquet, wciner roasts, and several informal banquets. A highlight of each year is the Urban Macs Memorial lectureship, honoring one of the great men of Phi Chi and the medical profession. 158 COLONEL F. B. ALEXANDER, JR. ARMY R.O.T.C STAFF Professor of military science and tactics, Colonel Fred- erick B. Alexander, Jr., came to L. S. U. from Fort Gordon, Georgia. Following his graduation from Princeton Univer- sity with a Bachelor of Arts degree, Colonel Alexander en- listed in the United States Army as a private in 1940. He attended the Field Artillery Officer Candidate Class at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, in 1941, and was commissioned as 2nd Lt. of Artillery upon graduation. He commanded the United Nations partisan forces in Korea and the famous 2 1st In- fantry Regimental Combat Team which carried out the repatriation of 72,000 Oriental prisoners of war from the Island of Koji-Do in Korea. As evidence of his distinguished career with the Army, Colonel Alexander wears many decorations for valor and service.

Cadet Corps was established on January 20, 1 860, with the formation of the University itself. William T. Sherman, later to become an important leader for the Union forces in the Civil War, was the first president and headed the faculty of five. The historic military post was first locat- ed where the state capitol grounds are today. The ROTC program began, and with it began the University ' s oldest tradition the military heritage which has been part of the institution since its beginning, and which has given L. S. U. the nickname of the Ole War Skule. The Corps is the largest single organization on the cam- pus, with a program designed to produce efficient, well- trained reserve officers, ready for active duty in either the Army or the Air Force. The highlights of this year were the fabulous Military Ball, spotlighting the Glenn Miller Or- chestra, and the well-organized intramural program. Much credit belongs to the able military instructors led by Air Force Colonel Heibert O. Wangeman and Army Colonel Frederick B. Alexander, Jr., the latter being recently select- ed to ODK national honor and leadership fraternity for his outstanding accomplishments with the cadet program. CADET CORPS STAFF FIRST Row: C Col.

Named in honor of Gen. Hap Arnold to uphold the ideals of national defense, patriotism, and de- votion to duty, the Society is affiliated with the Air Force Association. The Frank Hagan Squadron at L. S. U., during winter and spring pledge weeks, initiates outstanding juniors and seniors enrolled in Air Force ROTC. The members must have at least a 2.0 average in air science with a 1.5 over-all. In addition to being a society for the advancement of the ideals of the USAF, the Arnold Air Society provides a fraternal organization which features many varied social activities, climaxed by a formal spring banquet.

Chapter of the Association of the United States Armies was founded on the campus in 1956 by Army ROTC cadets. Goals of the Association are: To instill a better knowledge of the Army and military duties in its members, to educate cadets concerning the Army ' s role in world affairs, and to present a wide, interesting supplement to subjects studied by ROTC cadets. The AUSA is a nation-wide organization, subscribed to by members of the active army, the inactive reserve, ROTC, and interested civilians. AUSA is the only military organization on campus open to all Army ROTC cadets, either basic or advanced. Month- ly meetings usually feature military films and guest speakers of special authority.

Members are basic ROTC cadets who have achieved a B average in military and a C over-all average. This year twenty pledges, or bedbugs as they are known during initiation week, were initiated as active members. On October 7, the Company held its first annual Sponsor Party in the ball room of the Old State Capitol. It was de- signed to give the active members an opportunity to meet prospective sponsors for the coming year. Pat Marionneaux was elected to participate in drill exhibitions and other ac- tivities with the Company. The group marched in the Krewc of Mid-City Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans and in the Christmas parade during Demember in downtown Baton Rouge.

It is an official student post of the Na- tional Society of American Military Engineers whose origin dates back to May 28, 1820. The Society, this past year, has participated in a number of campus and civil activities. Some of these activities in- clude participation in the Campus Chest Drive, Engineering Day, and a trip to the Corps of Engineer ' s Experimental Waterways Station in Vicksburg, Mississippi.

Each member must be a student enrolled in either freshman or sophomore air science. He must maintain a 2.0 average in air science with a 1.5 over-all average. The purposes of the Sabre Air Command are to increase knowledge of the mission and scope of the United States Air Force, to promote American citizenship, and to create a close bond of esprit de corps among its members. Through various projects sponsored and carried out each year by the local squadrons, the Sabre Air Command seeks to fulfill these purposes. FIRST Row: Corbett LcBouef, Harold Mize. Harry Schexnayder.

The purpose of the club is to enable the sponsors to take an active part in the military and help at all military functions of the University. The Sponsors participated in several activities during the year. They were given the task of planning the decorations for the Military Ball. Under the direction of Carolyn John- son with the hard work of all the sponsors, it was a tremen- dous success. To bring to a close a fine year, the Sponsors Club entertained the wives of the officers at a coffee.

Soon he finds himself with many others, cheering at his first Pep Rally, where he meets Mike II. IN THE UNIVERSITY WHIRL The well-dressed frosh wears pajamas. Placement tests are not so bad, but they do take quite a lot of time. With the return of fall, the campus quickly becames re- populated with those phenomenal beings known as college students. Most conspicuous of these is the frosh dog with his new haircut, thoughtfully given to each successive uni- versity generation for a slight fee, of course. For the freshman at LSU the first days are busier than any he has ever known, filled with placement tests, rush parties, new friends, and just exploring his surroundings. So begins the fabled and glamorous four years of college. But with the advent of classes, the freshman soon learns of his responsibility as a student. Social activities are included on the agenda, and for these, every irl has at least two escorts. REGISTRATION At this time of year, everyone feels sure he will never do three things: first, finish registering; second, live with his ter- rible schedule; and third, survive another day of registration. Despite this, the university enrollment continues to rise steadily. There is not another experience (except an occasional snowstorm), that calls forth more united student feeling. All go from one line to another, finally reaching a check- point, where they are inevitably sent back for just one more signature. With the end in sight, meaning nothing more drastic than the fee windows, the five o ' clock chimes of the Campanile break through the clatter, signaling the end of another working day. Posts are immediately abandoned. leaving the students no choice but to pay tomorrow. After it ' s all over, and roommates have commiserated, there is one rav of hope. Next semester, it will be SO easy. But by that time the i-vstem is revised, and again the students muddle through ! This is where it all begins, maybe on the last day of Registration. Yes, even here, there is organization. Freshmen get help in planning their schedules, and find that they must take Saturday classes. Two of the possible reactions to regis- tration: absolute bliss and utter numb- Voting machines arc used for most campus elections. . CAMPUS POLITICS As regularly as the Campanile chimes, the campus blos- soms out with pictures and posters of aspiring candidates. Classrooms, sidewalks, the Field House balcony and any other available space are utilized by fervent campaign man- agers. Since the main idea on a campus as large as ours, is to let people know what your candidate looks like, the bulk of the publicity is done with this in mind. However, there is sound theory behind this type of campaigning: you can ' t expect to get a vote from someone who ' s never even seen the candidate. Many opportunities are available for those who desire the responsibility of an office. Dormitory elections with room- to-room personal campaigns, as well as the all-day-at-the- polls class and J. D. elections attract attention with their spectacular (and abundant) publicity. Since the student- body offices are filled late in the year, there are several months of preparation for these and the results are usual- ly a credit to the planners. But all candidates, victorious or otherwise, feel that welcome relief when the votes are tallied, and the results are known. On the opening day of campaigning, loyal supporters gather to hang signs on the Field House. Signs of the times one way to keep your name before the public. -S UK , G IRL5 l OT - Some of the dormitory reception rooms almost seem to be re- decorated on election day. In the dorms there is keen competition to see who has the most original ideas. Some students have their first experience with a voting machine here. This might well be the deciding vote. Election of J. D. officers is one of the most animated ones on campus. These two freshmen really seem to feel the beat! Although the first weeks at LSU are usually filled with dis- coveries and general adjustment to the university environ- ment, the last big step that really makes the frosh feel special is the custom known as Freshman Day. Tradi- tionally, this is the day when the skin heads discard their identifying caps, and the whole class takes a half -holiday to attend a talent show and dance celebrating the end of dog days. This year a typical thing happened it rained in Baton Rouge. So Queen Patti and King Fritz were crowned in the gym-armory. Other than that departure from custom, the events were typical, with perhaps just a lattle more talent than usual. For some, the day was reminiscent of Orientation, be- cause, for the last time, there was the inevitable two-to- one ratio, resuting from the oversupply (as the boys call it) of male students in the freshman class. As before, this ratio was rigidly enforced by advisors and commanding of- ficers. But here any resemblance to Orientation ceased, for at the end of this special day the freshmen became a real part of the student body. For the last time until that final day four years distant, their class was singled out for uni- versity-wide recognition. There is always that traditional walk through the Campanile. No, this isn ' t the latest Ivy League : this is talent. Royalty wears a smile as the procession to the flagpole begins Jan Pellerin presents a trophy to the Most Talented Freshman Girl. VI ' $fl For their Dietzel Engine and appropriate gravestones, the Lambda Chi ' s were awarded a first place trophy. At work the night before, many discover hidden talents as sidewalk foremen. Getting up for an eight o ' clock may be bad on a weekday, but imagine this is Saturday. HOMECOMING When the excitiment over Homecoming decorations be- gins, there are those few who feel that they have been through all this before. But this year even those sophisto- cates soon became caught up in themes, chicken wire and crepe paper. In fact, it wasn ' t long before those very people were boasting about being the best stuffers around; and every hand was needed. And here we see what ' s back of it all at least it won ' t collapse Early Saturday morning, students were seen piling out of dorms and frat houses to set up their group ' s effort. The next step, of course, was to survey the competition. But there wasn ' t much time to waste, because the day ' s schedule was a close one from that 5 a.m. alarm-clock to the last dance at the fraternity party. Alums, parents and friends began to arrive later in the morning, many of them in time to see the ROTC review. Since no one was burdened with classes, there were also many students in the crowd that watched the army and air force cadets pass in review on the parade ground. Then there was time to really tour the campus and compare the original and sometimes amazingly intricate designs that had been set up by the various student organizations. At the alumni barbecue there were two of the requirements for enjoyment: good food and old friends. This is not, we repeat this is not the meat used for the b arbecue; who would want minced wildcat, anyway? NCE5 Kappa Sig ' s idea was really original and effective, too . This band helped the Homecoming Dance to be a huge success Campaigning at the polls isn ' t just for under- grads, as these alums prove. The Court poses for a picture: Misses Brenda Hague, Pat McLin and Maria DeBeux. For the returning alums, there was a meeting of the Alumni Federation and election of officers for the coming year. Many reunions probably occurred at these events and at the barbecue given in honor of the old grads. During the afternoon there was the Homecoming Show, featuring student talent, followed by the traditional dance. There were also open houses to visit before game time and the rush to the stadium, in time to see Miss Pat McLin crowned 1958 Homecoming Queen, and to hear the results of the decorat- ing contest. After the game, with the Scoreboard proclaiming another Tiger victory, the crowds left the stadium and the University, prouder than ever of the Old War Skule. After the game all are welcome at the fraternity houses even a tiger. One of the acts in the Homecoming ' Show, the Dancing Football Team. A kiss for the queen from the alumni president . Before the kickoff, trophies were presented to the winning organiza- tions.

Although primarily for the en- joyment of students, faculty and staff, the programs are open also to residents of Baton Rouge. This year ' s series was an outstanding one. bringing a variety of well-known lec- turers, musicians and actors to our campus. The opening event of the season was the first of four Audubon Screen Tours. November brought Richard Dyer- Bennett with his program of the world ' s great traditional songs, and the noted sociologist. David Reisman. During February, the gym-armory was the scene of the Canadian Players ' presentation of Shaw ' s Man and Superman. Also that month. Lotte Goslar ' s Pantomime Circus provided en- tertainment for humans only. The Don Cossack Chorus and Dancers were well-received in March, as was the per- formance given by the guitarist. Andrea Segovia. Climaxing the 1957-58 series in April were the Edward Douglas White Lectures, given by Professor Lon Fuller. Richard D rr-Btnnctt ' s folk songs filled the gym-armory with their haunting quality. The Four Freshmen performed for a packed house. Lotte Goslar ' s Pantomime Circus gave a type of entertainment for humans only. TOtt r?M G LSU BAND Imagine a football game without the Tiger Band crashing into the Fight Song at just the right moment, and it ' s easy to see the results of their efforts. But there are really three other parts to the LSU Band. On drill days the Military Band supplies marches for the corps of cadets; the Concert Band gives several performances a year outdoors in the Greek Theatre; and the Pep Band plays for many of the more spirited occasions. Each year the Band and Athletic Departments are hosts to almost one hundred Louisiana high school bands, which perform in a body during the half- time ceremonies at one of the football games. The end of the goal-to-goal show on Band Night resembles an organized invasion. In their new uniforms, the Tiger Band plays during an infrequent performance on the Parade Ground. Although their numbers are not large, their music is tremendous so say the students of the Pep Band. Stirring marches are the specialty of the Military Band Steer wrestling is one of the main attractions of any rodeo, and ours follows this rule. Two rather incongruous means of transportation were seen in the Rodeo Parade. Even the fence-sitters seem to be worried about this horse, but the rider has a good chance of staving on. STUDENT RODEO Beginning with the typical Rodeo Parade around the campus, the LSU Student Rodeo took over the Coliseum for a week. All of the participants were students, but not all were Ag. boys: even girls took part in such events as barrel- racing, and there was fraternity competition in the wild- cow-catching contest. An event as large as this must have a queen, and this year Miss Cecile Morris was crowned at the last performance. For excitement and thrills many claim that this Rodeo, which is sponsored by the Block and Bridle Club, outshines even the professional one given in the spring. Such events as wild horse racing, bulldogging, bareback bronc and steer riding seem to give a sound basis to this stand. This year, Carl Berry won the title of Top Cowboy, which is an honor in any man ' s language, pardner. But sometimes they fall, and when they do, someone has to be on the bottom. Two of the characters in an emotional scene from Box and Cox. ' The First Dress Suit was one of the early productions this fall. CURTAIN CALLS On the average of once a week, the Louisiana Players Guild presents a completely student-produced play in the Workshop Theater. Membership in the Guild is open to all who are interested in any aspect of theater work, but especi- ally provides a realistic lab for students of the dramatic arts. This year, several of their productions ran for longer than one night, but usually each Thursday there are at least two full casts ready to go on stage. A few of the many plays presented during the year were The Bridge at Illyrea, ' The Man in the Bowler Hat, The First Dress Suit, Time is a Dream, Box and Cox, and Moony ' s Kid Don ' t Cry. There was also a special reading of John Steinbeck ' s Of Mice and Men. At the end of February the Guild held its first Beaux Arts Ball on stage at the University Theater. Members and guests came dressed as their favorite characters from well- known plays. The result was a colorful mixture of periods, styles and personalities. One of the quarrels found in Moony ' s Kid Don ' t Cry. The three main characters in Stage Door assume typical poses. Contemplating what? From Time Is a Dream. Once again The Country Girl faces her problem in the glare of the footlights. Four major productions are presented by the Speech Department each year. Unlike the Players ' Guild produc- tions, these are directed by experienced faculty members, have three-to-four-night runs and have very elaborate sets and costumes. The Taming of the Shrew was the first pre- sented, followed by The Country ' Girl. During second semester one of the two scheduled plays was Thornton Wild- er ' s The Skin of Our Teeth. Katherine lashes out in this scene from The Taming of the Shrew. In the planned confusion of glaciers, floods, wars and mammoths, the cast of The Skin of our Teeth ' ' interpreted Thornton Wilder ' s prize-winning play. Petruchio has devised a plan to tame the shrew, and his confidence is appalling to some. OPERA AND A CAPELLA For all of the operas, authentic and well-designed costumes arc a necessity. In this scene from Fidelio, the costumes are shown especially well. The little nightingale charmed the Emperor. The Music School is justly proud of its opera production of the 1957-58 season. Two short operas were presented early in the year: The Fable of Orpheus and The Night- ingale. After second semester began, Fidelio, the major production, claimed the spotlight. For each of the operas, the Symphony Orchestra directed by Peter Paul Fuchs, took their accustomed places in the pit. Another of the opportunities for talented voice students is the A Capella Choir, which gave its traditional Candle- light Concert before the Christmas holidays. Under the direction of Dallas Draper, they also presented an Easter Program, St. Matthew ' s Passion. One of the outstanding events in the area of music is the Contemporary Music Festival which is held at LSU every spring. Not only our own students and faculty, but also other recognized musicians from near-by schools and communities participate. The A Capella Choir provided a musical interlude at the Honors Day Convocation. ll R. E W. With an intriguing theme, our annual Religious Emphasis Week made its reappearance this spring. Sponsored by the University Religious Council, this week was observed by the Protestants, Roman Catholics and Jewish congregations on campus. The program covered many areas in dorm discus- sions, lectures, displays, and was culminated in the Festival of Religion and the Arts, The God Seeker presented in the University Theater. When this telephone pole appeared on the Parade Ground there were various reactions mostlv sheer amazement. All during the week there was a Book Dis- play in the Field Hou se Lounge. William H. Stringer addresses the Religious Emphasis Week Con- vocation in the gym-armory. The Executive Committee for REW: Bobby Thigpen, Don Wimber- ly and Hollis Hayward stand behind Charlotte Tannehill and Skippy Thompson. It takes quite a bit of courage to walk all alone into a room filled with an audience like this but a darling must have poise. All day boys came in to vote for their three choices and the field was narrowed to seven. CHOOSING THE DARLING A tradition of over twenty years at LSU is the selection of one girl to represent the coeds on campus. She is called Miss LSU in the song written for her, but to all who have ever been associated with the University, her official title is Darling of LSU. The Darling has not always been selected as she is now; during her history she has been chosen from a group of campus beauties by the midshipmen at Annapo- lis, by a student committee from Washington and Lee and by outstanding authorities on feminine charm. Even though the girls thus honored were in all rights beautiful, the feeling grew that their fellow students should play the major role in their selection. So it is now that there is a very democratic basis for the contest, with the responsibility of nominating, eliminating, and finally electing the Darling and the Beauty Court placed directly in the hands of the men of LSU. Before they entered the room, the nominees seemed cool and collected. When the girb are as lovely as these, it takes a man time to decide. Gene Quaw, the director of social activities, supervises the building of the Palace of Roses. Nomination was the first step, with the men ' s organiza- tions and dorms choosing the girls they would like to have represent them. Then, at the preliminaries in West Hall Re- ception Room, representatives from these organizations had opportunity to vote for the twenty-five girls of their an choice. This step proved the most nerve-wracking for both nominees and voters. But when the finalist were announced, attention began to center on who would be among the top seven. And of course, interest was at a record high the night of the GUMBO Ball, when the identity of the Darling was revealed in the glamorous setting of A Palace of Roses. And the final act of the production the 1958 Darling and her Court. SORORITIES Sorority Rush Week! Those magic three words have varied effects on girls. If they are new freshmen, the words mean a week of being the honored guests at dozens of parties and the chance of meeting classmates and upperclasswomen. But to the sorority women it means plans and more plans along with late hours of discussions. However, when it ' s over, most agree that it was worth it, for each pledge class seems the best yet. For the new pledge there is much to learn about her sorority, and her enthusiasm is high. As she learns of grade requirements and philanthropic projects she begins to un- derstand that the sorority exists to help her and her sisters become well-rounded students and women; she finds that she must contribute of herself in order to enjoy her college days as she has planned. Rush parties are the time for actives and rushees to learn as much about each other as possible. Actives get together right before Rush Week to plan details and to learn names. Every active turns out to greet each new pledge, as she picks up her bid in Panhellenic and runs to the sorority room which will be hers. For some of the rush parties the actives present original skits com- plete with costumes. Women ' s Panhellenic serves the purpose of drawing together the members of the fourteen sororities on campus. When celebrities such as Tommy Sands come to Baton Rouge, they are usually invited to be luncheon guests of various sororities. Decorating for Homecoming is one of the big occasions for actives and pledges, and the competition is rugged. Some stuff crepe paper, but the music is just too much to resist- and, after all, no classes tomorrow! Belonging to a fraternity means knowing where you ' ll eat the next meal. FRATERNITIES Costumes are fun when everyone gets into the act and some of the creations that turn up at frat parties! For the fraternity actives, September means getting the house in order for the year ' s crop of rushees, and planning a series of parties and dates for Rush Week. Some of the parties are strictly stag, but others are graced with rush girls and every frat knows their value. After the rushees have become pledges, their help is utilized to its best advan- tage around the house. Of course, there are always the tra- ditional pledge pranks which are pulled every year, along with a few new inventions to heighten the suspense. Grades become a topic of conversation; then a matter of grave con- cern as second semester and initiation approach. In the intra-mural sports program there is keen competition among the fraternities. Any excuse for a party is usually a good one, but decorat- ing for Homecoming is one of the best. Nevertheless, decora- tions are finished, finally, and in time for judging, too. But the biggest parties are the formals, which have tangible evidence of attendance, in the form of novel favors for the lucky girls who are invited. Participation in intramural sports and in IFC activities is necessary and helps to build better relations between the many houses on Dalrymple Drive. When it snowed, you may be sure someone knew what to do and so ATO pledged a snowman. Always the most spectacular party of the year, the fraternity formal gives everyone a chance to get out of Ivy-Leagues for one night. Kappa Alpha ' s Old South Ball is a well-kept tradition that pro- vides one of the most glamorous formals. Parties at the fraternity houses are scheduled for most week-ends The Columbus Day Dance at the Pan-American House is held each year. PARTIES AND DANCES Although LSU cannot be called, in undergrad slang, a party school, there are a wealth of opportunities for relax- ation and many chances to have fun. Parties have a way of just beginning sometimes, but generally they are planned in advance, such as the dances (before and after the game) held at the fraternity houses on every football Saturday. A glance at the social calendar for any weekend will give an idea of how many groups are getting together. Each Friday and Saturday night is full of fun for everyone. Wonder if anyone ever told them that music is for dancing? Dancing to jitterbug music can be pretty exhausting stuff. Formats take over the social calendar during the spring semester Besides these smaller parties there are campus-wide dances with name bands. For instance, this year the guests at the Military Ball danced to the music of Glenn Miller ' s Orchestra. The GUMBO Ball always attracts many of the students because of the lovely setting from which the Dar- ling and her Court are introduced. Costume parties, too, where everyone gets into the act are numerous, as well as the comfortable sox-and-loafers record parties held fre- quently throughout the year. The Freshman Day Dance attracts a large crowd, which isn ' t un- usual since it ' s their day to celebrate. There ' s a clown in every party; in fact, he usually helps make it a success. The GUMBO Ball is held right before Christmas vacation, and it is here that the Darling is presented. At the Who ' s Who Tea guests definitely have something in common: national recognition for their achievement. SMARTY PARTIES Mortar Board has the only real Smarty Party complete with mortar-board-and-tassel name tags, but several other honorary organizations honor their prospective, or new members in various ways. The original Smarty Party is for junior women whose averages are 2.0 or above. Alpha Lambda Delta has a party after nine-weeks grades are tallied to which th ' ey invite freshmen women with 2.0 aver- ages; it is called, quite naturally, their B-Average Tea. Another tea given fo r the newly recognized Who ' s Who ' s claims attention. And of course every honorary usually plans a banquet for new members as soon after initiation as pos- sible. There are definitely advantages to studying, and not all are intangible. Well, that really must have been a funny one so now we ' re curious Dominated by the ever-present punch bowl, the Mortar Boards entertain their guests. INITIATIONS Some people react to initation antics with a shrug of indif- ference or so-called disgust. But most initiations, barring the few extreme ones, are fun from both sides of the fence. Those going through it have something in common with all those who have gone before, besides just mutual interests. Also, initiations serve to identify an organization and graphically illustrate its professional interest. As an example of this, the Xi Sigma Pi Fire Tower proclaims to all that its members are Forestry students. Oh, how those cannons shine when the military organizations are initiating new members. - V Do you mean that really is the way to purify water? And y ' all should know. Even if it ' s never used, we must admit that the fire tower adds a certain something to the campus landscape. These new PR ' s stand solemn guard outside the Campanile as night descends. This is a favorite way to identify initiates Two cadets receive instruction on the air-cooled machine gun Observing mortar fire on the spot is one of the many chances for first-hand experience. ROTC SUMMER CAMP As summer approaches, the junior in advanced ROTC begins begging for sympathy he is going to Fort Hood and from what he ' s heard, he won ' t like it. But it is there he learns to put to practical and actual use the skills he has been accumulating in classroom situations. With the facilitif of a large army camp at hand, he be- comes acquainted ith the mechanics of modern warfare. After this six weeks of intensive field training, the cadet returns to the classrooms of his university to complete re- quirements for his reserve commission in the United States Army. And then he joins the other veterans of Fort Hood and adds his vivid description to accumulated knowledge. Cadet Fred Dent received the Outstanding Cadet Award in com- petition with 1324 other students. The machines of modern warfare are used by these future officers. 1957 All American Jimmy Taylor, recipient of the Roberts and Eastman MVP Award, and MVP of the Blue-Gray football game; top SEC scorer with 86 points; a new two-year scoring record at LSU with 145 points; the first to repeat as SEC scoring leader in 25 years; eighth rusher in the nation. - 1.

Billy Hendrix 10 PAUL DIETZEL JIM CORBETT THE LSU COACHING STAFF Head Coach Paul Dietzcl completed his third season with the Bengals this year, compiling a 5-5 record to claim sixth place in the Southeastern Conference standings with a team that was picked to finish last. This year ' s performance in the SEC is the Tigers ' best since 1951. Charley McClendon is chief assistant to Coach Dietzel and an outstanding line coach. He played end at Kentucky and coached there and at Vanderbilt before coming to LSU in 1953. Marty Broussard, the LSU athletic trainer, is one of the nation ' s best. A former Tiger track and baseball star, he was trainer for the U.S. Olympic team in the 1954 Pan- American games. Backfield coaches George Terry and Carl Maddox came to LSU in 1954. Terry ' s teams at Pine Bluff, Ark., High School posted a 49-6 record in six seasons before he moved up to the college ranks. Maddox was one of the South ' s best high school football coaches at Greenwood and Greenville, Miss. Line coach Bill Peterson left a state championship team in Ohio to join the LSU staff in 1955. End coach Abner Wimberly is a member of the LSU Athletes ' Hall of Fame. He was a star lineman both at Tigertown and in the pro ranks before becoming a coach in 1953. Ray Didier and Clarence Pop Strange, better known as the baseball and frosh football coaches, serve as scouts and recruiters for the Bengals. The coaches began building the team in August .

The Rice Owls broke a losing jinx by erasing defeat in the final minutes of play to down LSU 20-14 and earn their first win at Tiger stadium since 1937. The season opener drew 53,000 fans to see the Bengals score the first time they had possession of the ball. Senior Jimmy Taylor leaped over the Owls ' forward wall to score from the one and climax a 67 yard drive. Taylor ' s PAT was good and LSU led 7-0. A second quarter drive of 78 yards ended with Taylor ' s second touchdown and extra point. LSU was the early leader at 14-0. The Rice attack began in the second half as the Owls ran and passed deep into LSU territory. King Hill, second- string quarterback, crossed the goal line for the first Rice score. The extra point kick was thwarted by a fumble but Bobby Williams picked up the pig skin and ran it over for the point. The half ended with LSU leading 14-7. . . And then the crowd came . LSU 14; RICE 20 Rice moved from their own 49 to set up a TD as David Kelly scored from the three. Hill ' s PAT tied the score. Rice continued to dominate the second half scoring by Ray Chil- ton ' s 16 yard run through the Tiger line. The Owls kept ahead of the Tigers for the remainder of the game to win 20-14.

LSU ' s Tigers out-ran, out-passed and capitalized on pass defense to defeat the Alabama Crimson Tide 28-0 before a crowd of 32,000 fans. The Bengals scored on the first series after receiving the opening- kickoff on Jimmy Taylor ' s plunge from the one. Red Brodnax caught a pass from Win Turner in the sec- ond quarter and raced 20 yards for a second LSU tally. Sophomore Billy Cannon ran down the sidelines for 53 yards to score in the third quarter. On a fourth period punt play, Cannon chose to run the ball around left end. He picked up blockers and went 73 yards for his second score of the game. Taylor kicked four successful extra points. Passing was an important factor in the Tiger scoring at- tack as Turner completed three out of four passes and sophomore quarterback Warren Rabb compiled the same record. Bengal players intercepted four Tide passes. Rabb caught a Tide toss in the LSU end zone in the final minutes of the game. Cannon knocked down an Alabama pass in the end zone to help keep the Tide scoreless. LSU 19; TEXAS TECH 14 Lubbock, Tex., Oct. 5. LSU ' s Billy Cannon added a highlight to the Tiger ' s un- impressive 19-14 victory over the Red Raiders by making two long touchdown carries to offset the Bengal ' s first half fumbling. A total of 11 fumbles were committed during the first two quarters of the game. Each team recovered three of their opponents lost pigskins. However, neither squad made any ball handling blunders in the second half. Texas Tech led at the end of the first quarter 7-0 owing to a 75 yard drive climaxed by Raider Floyd Cole breaking over for the tally. Jerry Bell kicked the placement. Win Turner ' s pass to Johnny Robinson accounted for the first Tiger score. Jimmy Taylor ' s kick tied the tallies at 7-7 and the half ended at that score. Cannon ' s first TD run was a 59 yard dash down the side- line after catching a Brodnax toss in the third period. Minutes later Tech regained the scoring lead as they smashed their way to the Tiger three and Bell dove over to tally. The PAT was successful and Tech held a slim 14-13 edge. With the kickoff Cannon sped 97 yards down the middle, picking up perfect blocks, as he scored the Tiger ' s winning touchdown. LSU 19, Tech 14. Texas Tech ground rushers gained a net yardage of 204 yards to the Tigers 147 but the Bengals out tossed their Lone Star State opponents 137 yards to 84. The total offense was matched as LSU collected 284 yards, Texas Tech 286. Brodnax picks up yardage against the raiders Taylor Iraps over the goal line. Tiger Stadium, Oct. 12. One of the Tiger ' s best gridiron contests of the season was their surprise victory over Georgia Tech ' s Yellow Jackets. The entire LSU outfit played great ball in the hard fought game that went without penalties until the final minutes. It was the first time LSU had defeated Tech at Tiger Stadium. The Bengals defeated the team that was ranked third in the nation in over-all defense, ninth in rushing and second in passing by collecting a total offense of 304 yards to Tech ' s 157. A record attendance crowd of 63,000 fans watched Coach LSU 20; GEORGIA TECH 13 Paul Dietzel ' s charges stop their opponents 20-13 as senior Jimmy Taylor scored all LSU points. As often done this season LSU scored the first time it had the ball. Taylor went over in the first quarter from the half yard line to score and later went over the top of Tech de- fenders to tally mid-way in the second quarter. Taylor ' s extra point was good and the Tigers led 13-0. In the same period the Yellow Jackets scored seven on Braselton ' s dive and Gal James ' addition of the PAT. Half- time score LSU 13, Ga. Tech 7. The Bengals opened the second half with a drive to the Yellow Jacket six but were stopped. Tech punted out of the hole and minutes later Taylor bulled over from the four and then booted the extra point. Taylor ' s performance raised his scoring total to 45 for the season. Tech tallied their final points on a short pass from Brasel- ton to Jerome Greene. Smith moves in for a cross-body block . LSU 21; KENTUCKY Tiger Stadium, Oct. 19. A Homecoming crowd of 52,000 fans watched LSU beat Kentucky ' s Wildcats 21-0 for their fourth straight victory. The contest was a bruising battle which ended with a dem- onstration of flying temper. Statistically the Wildcats out numbered the Tigers in first downs, passing yardage and total offense but LSU led in the scoring column. LSU scored twice in the first half and picked up another seven points in the final quarter. The Bengals moved throughout the game in short determined drives which set up two of their TDs. Late in the first quarter the Tigers started moving goal- ward from the Wildcat 37 for their first tally. Brodnax, Tay- lor, and Cannon combined to work the ball to the seven. Cannon proceeded to sprint over for the marker. Taylor made the placement. LSU 7 - Ky. 0. Johnny Robinson, LSU sophomore halfback, turned his jarring tackle of Kentucky quarterback Woody Herzog into another Tiger score. Robinson ' s tackle knocked the ball from Herzog ' s grasp and Taylor grabbed the pigskin and ooum 10 VOS.TO First-and-ten with 3:42 remaining. raced 32 yards to score. Taylor again kicked the extra point to make LSU a 14-0 leader. An LSU drive starting late in the third quarter became a seven point product to start the last 15 minutes of play. The Tiger line and backfield bucked a tough Wildcat de- fense for 81 yards to set up Cannon ' s two yard plunge across the goal line. Taylor added his third conversion. One of the not too often features of this game was the appearance of the LSU second string on the playing field. Dietzel ' s reservists proved fair game for Kentucky as LSU got two scoring chances but bogged down on both occasions. It was the fifth straight loss for Kentucky. Cannon rides high toward the goal. Brodnax is held up by a few tacklers. Taylor is stopped just short of a TD. LSU 14; FLORIDA 22 Gainesville, Fla., Oct. 26. Florida ' s Gators stopped everything LSU had to offer and downed the Tigers 22-14. The big difference in the contest was the speedy Gator scatbacks and the poor Tiger kicking. Taylor goes through for six points. The Gators moved out front early in the game when Can- non ' s punt in the end zone was blocked and Florida recov- ered for a safety. Florida received the kickoff and in six plays Gator back Roundtree stepped over the line for a touchdown. The conversion was missed and Florida led 8-0. J. W. Brodnax, returning the kickoff, sped 99 yards up the left sideline and went over for the tally. It is the longest kickoff return to be recorded by an LSU player. Taylor kicked the PAT and LSU trailed 8-7. A meager punt set the Gators in Tiger territory as they started another scoring drive. Quarterback Jimmy Dunn raced around right end to score from the ten. Bernie Parrish made the point after touchdown to give the Gators a 15-7 edge. Taylor climaxed a 64 yard drive with a plunge from the three to collect LSU ' s last score. Taylor booted the skin through the goal posts for a 15-14 score. A 12-yard punt gave Florida the ball on the LSU 39 and in three plays Parrish scored. Parrish ' s extra point was good. Florida ended the game with 229 yards gained rushing to LSU ' s 98. Punting average for LSU totaled 24 to Flor- ida ' s 37. Dudley Field, Oct. 2. The Commodores over-powered the Bengals and passed at will to down LSU 7-0 before a pleased Vanderbilt Homecoming crowd. The defeat snuffed out LSU hope for the SEC title. Vandy completely dominated the first half with power running and passing that caught the Tiger air defense un- aware. The Commodores piled up 1 10 yards on the ground and 98 in the air. The lone score of the game came early as a Vandy open- ing drive ended in a tally. The Commodore eleven hustled 77 yards to the LSU three. Quarterback Boyce Smith tossed to Tom M oore for the TD and Jim Travis added the point. Vandy 7 - LSU 0. The LSU line hurled back three Vandy marches into Tiger teritory in the second period. LSU threatened to get into the game twice in the second half but got no closer than the three yard line before being halted. Vandy out-rushed LSU 196 to 157 and gained 98 yards in the air to the Tiger ' s 64 for a net yardage of 294 to 22 1 .

Hemingway Stadium Nov. 9 The Tigers scored twice on long runs but failed to add the extra points and were defeated for the third straight game. The Ole Miss Rebels pleased their Homecoming crowd beating LSU 14-12. The difference in the game was two conversions made by Ole Miss second string kicker. Turner Turner comes out with a leg injury. Taylor ' s tackling form makes him a defensive threat. In the first period Jimmy Taylor made the first long run for an LSU touchdown. Taylor raced 60 yards for the tally. He then missed the try for placement and LSU led 6-0. Early in the second quarter a recovered LSU fumble opened a 31 -yard series for a Rebel score. Quarterback Ray Brown scored from the half-yard line and Bobby Khayat added one more to put Ole Miss ahead 7-6. The lead was a short-lived one for the Rebels as J. W. Brodnax took Cannon ' s handoff on a punt and returned the ball up mid-field 53 yards for another Tiger tally. LSU again led with a 12-7 score as Taylor missed the extra point. The Rebels scored their winning TD and conversion in the fourth period. Quarterback Bob Franklin dove over from the two but a penalty called th e play back to the 16. On a fourth down pass Brown connected with Don Wil- liams for the tally. Khayat added the conversion, giving the Rebs a 14-12 edge which they held to the final gun. The Rebels piled up 365 yards and 21 first downs against LSU ' s 175 yards and six first downs. Tiger Taylor accounted for 117 of the Bengals ' total yardage. LSU 12; OLE MISS 14 Coaches Dietzel and McClendon check with the press box . Tiger Stadium, Nov. 30 The 25-6 victory over the Green Wave gave the Bengals their fifth win of the season against five setbacks. It also continued Coach Dietzel ' s record of never losing to a Tulane team and kept the Tiger seniors ' record of never having lost to the Wave. The traditional series between the Tigers and the Green Wave has been dominated by LSU as Tulane hasn ' t captured a triumph since 1948. LSU has allowed Tulane to win only four since the mid-thirties. Jimmy Taylor, the Tabulating Tiger, scored two touch- downs to gain the national and SEC top scoring position and he gained enough yardage to claim the SEC rushing crown. Taylor finished the season with 86 points and a season ' s rushing total of 760 net yards. Taylor will go down in the books as one of the Old War Skule ' s greatest backs and the fourth LSU player to make All-American. Taylor began the game with a burst downfield from 48 yards out in Tulane territory to cross the goal line with only minutes gone in the game. The extra point attempt failed but LSU led 6-0. LSU ' s sophomore center, Duane Leopard, intercepted a Wave pass with 5:35 left in the third quarter and raced 44 yards over the goal for the second Tiger score. Don Purvis added the placement. Warren Rabb ' s pass into the end zone to Billy Smith was fumbled but recovered by Johnny Robinson for the tally. LSU 19, Tulane 0. Tulane scored on a pass from Carlton Sweeney to Gene Newton. The game ' s final score was made when Taylor pulled away from several tacklers and ran 32 yards to make LSU a 25-6 winner. The Tigera drive to within a foot from a first-down . .r. CHEERLEADERS No football game is complete without cheerleaders to lead the yells and to bolster sagging spirits when the team is behind.

FRESHMAN FOOTBALL Coach Pop Strange and his 44 frosh gridders played a three game schedule against Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Tulane. Although they won but one contest, the experience will be valuable when the players advance to varsity competi- tion. The Baby Bengals opened their season at Oxford, Miss., where the Little Rebels stopped the Tiny Tigers 7-6 in an evenly matched game. The Baby Bengals terminated a 72- yard drive, with a 1 7-yard touchdown pass from Don Sessions to Donnie Dave. A blocked conversion cost the LSU frosh the victory. In their second contest the Baby Bengals edged past Miss. State 20-19 at Tiger Stadium. A 25-yard pass play set up fullback Mack Stupka ' s TD. followed by Tommy Neck ' s successful extra point kick. The Miss. Bullpup frosh tied the score on a 74-yard TD move. Tiger Wayne Kozan sped 92 yards from the kickoff to put the home team ahead 14-7 at the half. A Bullpup scatback returned an LSL punt 80 yards to tally, and another scored when given the ball in Tiger territory after a short punt. The visitors led 19-13 until Ken McMicheal. fullback, dived over from the five to insure the frosh a 20-19 win. The Tulane Little Wave squad defeated the Bengals 12-6 at Sugar Bowl Stadium to finish the teams ' seasons. LSU ' s frosh took the opening kickoff and went 70 yards, as Elton Upshaw scored the lone TD. Tulane scored around right end to tie the game, then recovered a third period LSU fumble and went on to score. Clarence Pop Strange, head coach. BASKETBALL The man LSU picked to rebuild its basketball program is hard-working, enthusiastic Jay McCreary, one of the na- tion ' s most successful high school basketball coaches, from Muncie, Indiana. He came to Louisiana State to replace Harry Rabenhorst, who retired last year after 29 seasons. The top scorers gone from the 1957 squad, which finished last in the conference, the new coach faced one of the roughest coaching jobs in the states. McCreary came South with plenty of experience gained from three years ' coaching under Branch McCraken at Indiana, a successful season at DePauw University, and six outstanding years with the Muncie High School Bearcats. Indiana prep school basketball is universally recognized as the best in the nation, and with mentor McCreary, Muncie was state champion one season and runner up another. For five of McCreary ' s six years, his team was rated one of the top Indiana prep teams. McCreary compiled a 134-32 record at Muncie. JAY MCCREARY, Head Coach. Standing: Dom Merle, Kenny Gray, Bob Loftin, Wayne Monson, Tommy Raborn, Tommy Collins. Kneeling: Bill Loftin, Carey Guglielmo, Jim Crisco, Joe Combs and Lynn Moon. Starting from scratch, the LSU rebuilding program had one of its thinnest outlooks in a number of years. Four let- termen, one returning squadman, a junior college transfer, and six sophomores from last year ' s frosh team made up the varsity squad. The team had no height (average 6-1) and no exceptional shooters. The Tigers collected a 7-18 season record and a 3-11 SEC finish. Top scorer for the year was senior Dom Merle, who hit 308 points for a 12.3 average. Merle shared a single game record for field goals scored during the season with Wayne Monson. Both dropped in 10 field goals: Merle in the St. Mary ' s and Lafayette games, Monson in the December 23rd Loyola contest. The team ' s second high scorer was Jim Crisco, who totaled 292 for an 11.6 game average. Crisco led the team in collecting re- bounds by snagging 225. Joe Combs had the best field goal percentage of the regular starters. Combs hit 37 per cent of his shots for 268 points and a 10.7 game average. Monson scored 256 points for a 10.2 average: sophomore Carey Guglielmo collected 108 for a 4.5 average. In 25 games the Tigers scored 1576 points for a 63-point average while their oponents totaled 1848 for an average of 73.5 points per game.

In the past ten years Coach Dub Robinson has produced several near-championship tennis teams, including three runner-up finishes in the Southeastern Conference tourna- ment. Result of the 1957 season was a 2nd place position in the SEC, with an 8-3-1 record. The doubles combination of lettermen Ken Carter and Tom Robinson lost only one SEC match last season, while other lettermen Buddy Gomez and Larry Hammett combined efforts and won the No. 3 doubles championship in the conference tournament last year. Four returning lettermen plus Johnny Robinson, soph- omore, give the Tigers a lineup of potential winners for the 1958 season. Both Tom and Johnny Robinson, Coach Rob- inson ' s two sons, will be playing varsity tennis for LSU this year. Scores for the 1957 season were: LSU 9, Pensacola Navy 0; LSU 1, Lamar State 8; LSU 3, Houston 3 (tie) ; LSU 9, Illinois 0; LSU 8, Miss. State 0; LSU 9, Vanderbilt 0; LSU 0, Miami of Fla. 6; LSU 8, Georgia Tech 1 ; LSU 8, Georgia 1; LSU 2, Tulane 7; LSU 9, Tennessee 0; LSU 7, Florida 2. TENNIS 1958 SCHEDULE Junior. Tommy Robinson.

GQLF With only one letterman returning from LSU ' s 1957 golf team, Coach Mike Barbato is expecting considerable help by some top notch sophomores which may make the Bengals a conference threat. Tommy Wulff, the lone letterman, will be joined on the links by newcomers Don Essig, Bert Burdick, John O ' Neil and Bill Dodson. Allen Credeur, Jack Rivers, Don Sims, and John Spencer, back from last year ' s team will also be playing for honors. Veteran Mike Barbato begins his 16th season as LSU golf coach. His teams have won five Southeastern Conference championships, three Southern titles and two national crowns. Golf dates for 1958 season included the Baton Rouge Open, Feb. 27-March 2; Tulane, March 26; the New Orleans Invitational, March 26-31; the Southwest Intercollegiate meet at Houston, April 3-5; Tulane, April 18, in Baton Rouge; and the SEC Tournament, May 1-3, in Athens, Ga.

AL MOREAU Coach TRACK LSU ' s track squad captured the SEC title in 1957 but will find the road definitely rougher this year. With five outstanding members of the 1957 team gone, Coach Moreau will count upon lettermen Joe Blanchard, John Davis, Bobby Mack, Bob Moore, Jerry Moore, King Mott, Ernest Wall, and Bob Westerman. Mack and Westerman can be relied upon for points in the sprints; Jerry Moore in pole vaulting; Mott, the SEC 440 champ, in his specialty; and Wall in the 880 distance. Add Davis in the high jump and Blanchard in the hurdles, along with soph standouts Billy Cannon in the sprints and weights, Ralph Fabian in the hurdles, Jesse Fartheree, in the pole vault, Wayne Young and Carl See- field in the middle distances and Jack Griswold in the weights, and the Tigers are in business again. The varsity track team also includes Bill Bankhead and Jeffrey Dalton in the javelin. Fabian, soph, hurdling ace.

RAY DIDIER Coach This spring LSU baseball will be working with five letter- men, none of which is a pitcher. The lack of an experienced man on the mound may be to the Tiger disadvantage. Let- termen Redfield Bryan, Ronnie Johnston, Joe Mailhos, Ralph Richoux and Al White return this year. Graydon Kitchens, who played only 6 2 3 innings on the mound last season, will be the only returning pitcher. Coach Didier will look to Taylor Clark, Jim Crisco, Peter Babin, Robert Flowers, Fred Falkenheiner, Bob Loftin, Herb McClung and David McTaggart for pitching duty. Richoux, one of the SEC ' s top catchers, led LSU in hitting last spring with a .308 mark. White and Bryan can also be counted upon for batting strength. The Tiger baseball roster also carries Bill Loftin, catcher, Mike McKeogh and Andy Bourgeois, in- fielders, and Billy Barfield and Sal Bordlee in the outfield. AL WHITE, 2B. JO MAILHOS, LF.

INTRAMURALS Girls stretch oops to return the volleyball Intramural sports play a big part in the campus student activity life. Some athletes on these teams would make good material for varsity competition. The supervised action offers the athletically inclined student a variety of sports.

I sssfisSS N % ALPHA Many young hearts sang the night of September 26 when a highly successful rush week for Alpha Chi was climaxed by our traditional pledging ceremony. To these girls were opened the wonderful times of Alpha Chi. We started our season with a buffet dinner honor- ing our new pledges. Shortly after, Founders ' Day was celebrated along with the initiation of old pledges. The girls soon discovered that work, too, is involved in Alpha Chi, as we all labored on Homecoming Decorations which job was actually more fun than work. All through the year the pledges and actives joined together once a month for a pledge-active dinner. The actives were amazed by the various talents displayed by the pledges at these dinners. After a lovely Christmas party, all interest was di- rected toward preparations for our annual formal which was at the Bellemont, with Rus Papalia and four vocal- ists. Our pledges were presented, and the dance proved to be a huge success. Again this year we turned to our more serious ac- tivity of helping with our national altruistic project- cerebral palsy. As usual, our girls brought many honors to Alpha Chi. We ranked very high on the intramural sport chart along with our many other campus activities. Although this year will be hard to surpass, we are looking forward to an even better one with September of 1958.

Our remarkable closeness seemed to grow as we worked on this year ' s projects. So many of us are active in such varied campus ac- tivities that we find it difficult to recall every individual ' s achievements. ADPi ' s are in honoraries such as Mortar Board and Alpha Lambda Delta, in student government, on planning committees for Religious Emphasis Week; and we participate in WRA tournaments, charity drives, and the songfest. One of our pledges entered the rodeo and placed second in barrel-racing. Another was chosen Most Talented Freshman Girl. Our favorite group ac- tivity is working on projects for crippled children in the Baton Rouge area. Don ' t think we didn ' t find time for social events, though. Besides parties for ourselves, including ban- quets and the Christmas party, we entertained our dates at a pre-football game supper, a hayride, and our crowning accomplishment the annual ADPi Diamond Paradise Formal. In the spring we had a valentine party, skating party, Easter Egg hunt for underprivileged children, and our Founders ' Day Banquet. Spring house- party just before exams ended this successful year, with plans for an even better one to follow.

We are especially proud of our members who are active in various campus organizations. AOPi was repre- sented among the advisors in freshman dorms, candidates for the Gumbo Court, members of honorary organiza- tions, and members of numerous campus societies. Our philanthropic activities included a magazine subscription drive and clothes drive to help support the Frontier Nursing Service, and an Easter Egg Hunt for the orphans. Our year was marked by a whirl of social activities: a fried chicken supper welcoming our new pledges on Bid Day, followed in two weeks by the pledging cere- mony and pledge banquet. Before we knew it, Homecom- ing was here, and actives and pledges turned their at- tention to making Little Lulu, an outstanding contri- bution to the Homecoming decorations on the campus. Among our other sorority activities were a surprise Halloween party for the pledges, Founders ' Day Ban- quet, a tea honoring our alumnae, our annual Christ- mas party, observance of Rose Week climaxed by the initiation ceremony and banquet, our Red Rose Formal, spring houseparty, and senior breakfast bidding farewell to the seniors and marking the close of a wonderful year.

We kept busy, having good time with the sisters whom we had not seen for a whole summer. There is no need to say that loyalty was predominate in preparations for Rush Week, because the great success of our rushing proved that. An active participation in campus life throughout the year added much enthusiasm to the Beta Iota Chapter. Alpha Xi ' s entered many different intramural sports, joined many varied organizations and had a full and happy year . December was a month to remember with the Yule-tide caroling for the alums and the Christmas party for the orphans. It still remains a debate as to who had the better time at the Christmas party the orphans or the Alphs Xi ' s. With the coming of spring, we began preparing for sev- eral trips : first, to Greenwell Springs to present our annual collection of books to the Grace Ferris Memorial Library, and then to the University of Alabama campus for the Omega Province biennial convention. Of course, our Founders ' Day banquet could never be forgotten. It was with reluctant sighs that we watched the Rose Formal bring another year to a close.

Beta Sigma Omicron disregarded the realm of space pioneer- ing and concentrated on a long, long rush season which added a memorable pledge class to the Alpha Rho Chapter. BSO achieved recognition on a down-to-earth sub- ject when we took the first place trophy for Homecom- ing Decorations. In November, we took great pleasure in watching the moon during our annual winter hay ride. In this same month, pledges and actives prepared Thanksgiving baskets for several families. The pledge class gave time and energy during the fall to a series of projects. Founders ' Day was celebrated on December 12 with a turkey dinner, which we all enjoyed. The chapter agrees that the most exciting night of our year was March 15, when we held our spring formal on the Capitol House Roof in honor of the pledges. Rivaling this celebration on our list of favorite events was the delightful weekend that the chapter spent on the Mississippi Gulf Coast for houseparty. As sure as there are stars above, BSO will miss the seniors that we toasted at the senior banquet in May, and we shall also miss the thrilling activity of this year.

White Carnation captured the spirit of our perfume theme, and the ideals of Chi Omega were beautifully expressed in our symphony. After rush week, with thirty-four new pledges, we successfully whizzed through another year at LSU. Every phase of campus activity showed Chi Omega repre- sentationthe Interdormitory Council, Mortar Board, and Honor Council. Athletics got our attention, too, as we eagerly participated in all tournaments. Pump for Polio was the cry among the pledges as they raised money for the March of Dimes by working at a filling station for one of their projects. But Chi Omegas also found time for fun. There was the pledge-active Halloween party, haunted with ghosts and spooks. This year, besides the chapter ' s own Christmas party, the Chi Omegas joined with the Kap- pa Sigs to bring Santa Glaus (and Kris Krinkle) to the orphans. The annual faculty cocoa party was again a huge success. Of course, the most meaningful day of our social calendar was April 12th, for then, our pledges were presented at our formal with music by Dave Bartholo- mew. And so again, after another full year, we say Chi we say Chi- we say Chi O- crossbones, skull, cardinal, and straw.

Those late bridge parties really prepared us for the late hours we kept during Rush Week. We survived, though, and lost sleep was forgotten when we got our first look at our enthusiastic new pledge class. School was only in the back of our minds during Rush, but we scrambled to catch up and had our smarty party as a treat for girls with 2.0 averages. Halloween was never better as we discovered the talents of our pledges in entertaining the members. In November was our Founder ' s Day Banquet, and De- cember brought the spirit of Christmas with our pine party, given by the pledges. Tri-Delta even played foot- ball in the Powder Puff Bowl for the third year in a row. More high points on our social calendar were the chicken fry given by our mothers, our Delta Omega birthday party, Delta Week before initiation, our Delta Formal, and the benefit bridge to raise money for our annual scholarship award. When we weren ' t busy with sorority activities, there were plenty of campus doings to keep us running. We were proud of our many members who were freshman advisors, ROTC sponsors, members of various honor organizations, and leaders in other campus clubs. We feel that a successful year has been brought to a close. LEFT TO RIGHT: Angell Stock well, vice president; Jo Libby Johnston, treasurer; Barbara Doherty, secretary; Sarah Sue Gibbs, president.

Before we could catch our breath, the DG ' s were marching with ROTC, participating in Homecoming Court, acting as freshman advisors, working with the governing bodies of the student centers, competing for Darling, and attending meetings of Mu Sigma Rho, Kap- pa Delta Pi, Alpha Lambda Delta, Mortar Board, and other honoraries. The morning after Homecoming, we honored alums and parents with a coffee. At Christmastime came the annual party for the Brownie and Girl Scout troops at the School for the Blind. After Christmas holidays, the DG ' s managed to capture members of other sorori- ties long enough to entertain them at a Captive Break- fast. Second semester rolled around, bringing with it a memorable formal. Anchor Week took over in March, during which time the fraternity ' s founding, as well as the chapter ' s founding, was celebrated. The week ' s cli- max came when Mrs. Hay, the national first vice presi- dent, spoke to the group during the annual Founders ' Day Banquet. The houseparty and songfest took the reins, after which came the senior banquet. The girls who love the golden anchor then set sail after another eventful and happy year.

Thanks to a successful Rush season with thirty-seven new pledges, Delta Zeta was ready to resume its active part in campus activities. DZ ' s can be found in all organizations on campus, from Mortar Board to Alpha Lambda Delta, as fresh- man advisors, on the drill field, on the student council, and on the pages of the GUMBO Beauty Section. Delta Zeta is especially proud of her president, Judy Noble, a member of Mortar Board, Who ' s Who, and a co-recipient of an award for most outstanding junior Delta Zeta in America. The fall houseparty was a tremendous success, as the pledges presented their rendition of Rush Week. DZ ' s took fourth place for their Homecoming decora- tions. DZ ' s enjoyed the Christmas season with a big party sponsored by the Mothers ' Club and were on hand to provide some Christmas spirit for the Home for the Aged. The Delta Zeta-Lambda Chi Easter Egg Hunt was a tremendous success, providing entertainment for under- privileged children. Delta Zeta ' s annual State Day gave us an opportunity to become better acquainted with members of DZ chapters all over the state. Tommy Ridgley provided the music for the DZ formal in April. Delta Zeta had a traditionally full year, brought to an end with a wonderful houseparty at Gulf Hills Dude Ranch.

Keeping this precedent in mind, we always look forward to September, knowing that it will mean the beginning of a new year in which we will set some new precedents. Following a successful Rush Week which filled us with pride, Dame Politics was good to us. We claim the presidents of two of the main dormitories; the college offices are filled with KD presidents, vice presidents, and secretaries; and the respective house councils are com- posed of many KD girls. Two of our seniors were named to Who ' s Who the same two who were previously elected to Mortar Board. Our chapter was strengthened with the addition of transfer students, coming to us from other colleges in Louisiana and Mississippi. These girls have contributed much to our group scholastically, athletically, and socially. A look at Cupid ' s record reminds us that we have a high social rating on the campus, too, for wedding announcements, diamond rings, and fraternity pins are becoming a traditional part of our room. Perhaps this is the most valid test of all if so, we pass with flying colors!

Our year was highlighted by a number of social ac- tivities. The first of these was a buffet supper honoring our new pledges. This was followed by the Founders ' Day Banquet on October 13th with skits to lit the occasion. The Halloween party, providing box lunches and wild and wooly costumes, was one of the best. We had our Christmas party and Easter party for orphans (both with the Dekes, as usual!) Following, was initiation with a banquet for new initiates, and a tea for the faculty in the spring. During the course of the year, our pledges spent long and tedious hours on special projects. Many Kappas took part in campus activities this year. Our thirty-eight pledges started off the year with a bang-up campaign for J.D. Veep Joan Anderson won, we ' re proud to say. We ' re also especially proud of Zoe, Panhellenic president, and Sally, A.W.S. presi- dent and Who ' s Who. We brought our year to a close with our formal at the Caribbean Room with the Red Tops, where the pledges were presented, and with spring houseparty.

We finished last year with a triumph at songfest by winning the sweepstakes with a portrayal of Les Saisons. Autumn brought Rush, and sixty-one girls soon became ninty-five. We had a Bermuda party with rec- ords, weiners, and boat rides; and active Phi Mu ' s in the shape of ghosts and goblins surprised the pledges at Halloween. The Thanksgiving party and baskets for the needy closed out the autumn. In winter, many of us went to class with battle scars from the Powder Puff Bowl. We and the Phi Gams planned and presented a Christmas program for the patients at Jackson, and Christmastime also brought glittering presents piled high under the tree. Spring began with the Founders ' Day Banquet, which was soon followed by initiation. Spring also meant the Pink Castle Ball with the Eight Tones playing at the Caribbean Room. Houseparty at Gulf Hills Dude Ranch brought the fourth season to a happy close. Through the year Phi Mu had many outstanding members on campus. Six Phi Mu ' s were elected to Who ' s Who, three held AWS offices, seven served as class of- ficers, and six were editor, associate editor, and staff members of the GUMBO. We also had dormitory officers, a GUMBO Favorite, a rodeo princess, and Freshman Day queen. This was truly an outstanding year for Phi Mu.

In the fall we were busy working on Homecoming decorations this year our theme being, Zero Predicted for the Old Kentucky Home. The mother-daughter Homecoming breakfast that followed was a huge success. Will we ever forget all those wonderful times the Halloween party, and Irene as the wild and witty witch; the Christmas party given by the pledges, and the annual Christmas party for the orphans; all the excitement of Arrow week and initiation; the Founders ' Day Banquet honored by our grand national president, Marianne Ried Wild; the basking and splashing of spring houseparty at Gulf Hills; our style show for cerebral palsy; and our elegant Valentine formal. For the fourth straight year Pi Phi donned their jerseys and cleats and fought fiercely in the Powder Puff game. During the year, the Pi Phi ' s have participated in many campus activities. Many were active in honorary and professional organi ations, several were ROTC sponsors, including Scabbard and Blade sponsor, and others were freshman advisors. We had secretary-treasurer of Junior Division, several members on student senate, the presidents of Mortar Board and Panhellenic, and sev- eral girls up for Darling. And so, we culminate another year that all of us will remember tor many a day. LEFT TO RIGHT: Barbara Schuet , treasurer; Martha Green, secretary; Judy White, president; Eddy Kahn, vice president.

After a wonderful Rush season, AEPhi ' s wasted no time in planning a year brimming with activities. Be- sides our monthly pledge-active activities and the scholar- ship banquet at the close of the fall semester, we worked individually in the name of the sorority for campus drives and participated in Delta Gamma Delta and Lambda intersorority activities. We celebrated Founders ' Day with a neighboring chapter of Alpha Epsilon Phi, and as a social service pro- ject we did cooperative work in the rehabilitation ward at the Baton Rouge General Hospital for polio victims. Another group project was to make stuffed animals for Christmas gifts for the less fortunate. AEPhi is really proud of her members, because this year our chapter holds the honor of having the Most Outstanding Transfer, the Most Outstanding Physical Education Major, and many officers of various organiza- tions. We held the highest scholarship average for under- graduates in the spring semester, 1957, and have mem- bers in Alpha Lambda Delta and a member in Mu Sig- ma Rho. 274 FIRST Row: Sallv Bosung.

PHI LAMBDA PI ALPHA CHAPTER ESTABLISHED AT LSU 1935 Phi Lambda Pi was organized to meet the needs of an ever increasing number of married women students on the campus. The purpose of the organization is the stimulation and encouragement of higher education among married women, and the development of friendli- er relations and closer contacts among this group of stu- dents. Phi Lambda Pi emphasizes scholastic achievement, and membership is based on definite scholastic require- ments and character. Alpha chapter maintains a room in Panhellenion where regular meetings, as well as sev- eral social activities, are held during the year.

LOCAL INTER SORORITY Delta Gamma Delta celebrates its twentieth anniversary on campus next fall. During the past years, friendship and fun have been accentuated, but the real purpose of the or- ganization is to unite the sororities in a closer bond of friend- ship by reciprocal undertakings. Each sorority is represented by five members. Initiates are chosen on the basis of char- acter, congeniality, and friendship. Last year a hundred dollar bond went to the new library for the establishment of a DGD shelf in the Louisiana Room. At spring convocation a DGD award was made to the member who had done most during the past year to further panhellenic spirit. LAMBDA ( FIRST Row: Sallv Baleman, Joan Brechtel. Jan Broun.

These girls, five from each sorority, are chosen for their character, friendliness, and ability to get along with others. Lambda has at is goal the estab- lishment of closer and better relations, as well as the promotion of good feelings and friendliness among the nrorities. Evi-r fall the organization sponsors a transfer stu- dent orientation, which includes a lour of the campus and a tea with members of the faculty. In connection with this program an award is presented in the spring of each year to the transfer student who has shown out- standing achievement in her first year at Louisiana State University. At Christmastime the girls get together to sponsor a charitable project in the Baton Rouge area. In the spring, they can be found on the softball field, as they settle the score with the DGD ' s, our traditional rivals.

Cooperating with the university administration, the Council seeks to maintain high social standards and to further fine intellectual accomplishment, as well as sound scholarship. In the field of sorority and inter- sorority relations, it compiles rules governing rushing, pledging, and initiation, and discusses problems arising in sorority and university life. Besides setting up Rush Week this year, Panhellenic gave a trophy to the sorority having the highest average for the past year, continued the Christmas Tree Light- ing Ceremony, and sponsored a workshop for sorority women this spring.

INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL All the social fraternities on the campus are gov- erned by the Men ' s Interfraternity Council. Each frater- nit has two representatives on the council, one au- tomatical lv the president, and the others selected by the fraternitv. AN a group, these representatives set up rules and policies that aid in guiding the fraternities in Mich activities as rushing and pledging. The Kiwanis Club Pancake Festival, all proceeds from which go to an LSU scholarship fund and to sev- eral charities, was avidly Mipported by the 1FC. Other projects in which the IFC is very prominent are Re- ligious Emphasis Week, Campus Chest Drive, and the United Giver ' s Drive. Each year, a Greek Week is sponsored by the IFC to enhance the value of the fraternities on campus and for the benefit of the faculty, administration and the university community. New projects being launched this year are a fra- terntiy Help Week and a leadership convocation held in conjunction with the Student Senate. OFFICERS: Peter Quirk, treasurer; Arthur Green, presi- dent; Charlie Moore, vice president. ACACIA The cornerstone of the Acacia fraternity house, laid but two years after this chapter was chartered, bears these phrases in token pledge of the fraternity ' s purpose: To strengthen the ties of friendship; to seek the truth; and to give light to those with whom we travel. One realizes the power motivating this pledge. Of ultra-modern design, our new house features suite-style living quarters for thirty, and is readily adaptable to air conditioning. Us dining room accom- modates fifty, while the adjoining living room and patio provide spacious surroundings lor dancing or relaxa- tion. Our parties have featured various themes. Among them have been the absolutely informal swimming parties, barn dances, and hayrides; the warm and glee- ful semi-formals at Thanksgiving and Christmas: and the stately elegance of our traditional Black and Gold Formal. Through highly successful informal rushing, we have doubled our membership in one year. Yet, quality has not been sacrificed, for our members hold positions as college and class officers in three colleges. Other mem- bers have distinguished themselves by holding high positions in honorary, service, military, and religious organizations. We are looking forward to next year when, with even better organi ation, we propose to reach for and hold the top rung in sports and other fields.

This new approach at rushing proved to be extremely successful, as shown by our new pledges. Throughout the football season, we all enjoyed parties after each home game. As Christmas neared, the Pi Phi ' s joined with us to give a group of underprivileged children the real Christmas spirit. Then, of course, there was our annual Christmas party before the holidays with comic presents to make each and every person there howl with laughter. We rounded out the second semester with initiation, our Founders ' Day banquet, rush girl party, our annual spring formal in March, and last, but far from least, the biggest party on our social calendar, the Bayou Brawl. At this last party of the year, the house was decorated with moss and other such swampy things to give a deep bayou country atmosphere. Even though we ' ve mentioned some of our grandest shindigs, we haven ' t missed having some great informal get-togethers, and many other parties with top bands to help liven things up. We ' re all proud of the name Alpha Tau Omega, and with the pep and enthusiasm our members have, we ought to make next year better than ever.

This fact can be seen in every phase of campus or off-campus life for in politics, law, medi- cine, sports, and business, we have justified this claim. But when it is time for the more carefree side of life, we seem to have an inside track on fun. The lodge seemed to hustle all spring long with one party after another. The Dogpatch Party, Bowery Party, and the Kappa-Deke Easter Party for Baton Rouge orphans. The party held after winning the Interfrater- nity Athletic Sweepstakes Trophy is one we will never forget. After one of the most successful Rush seasons ever seen on Frat Row, highlighted by Tommy When I Meet My Girl Ridgeley, the 1957 football season blew in with Ole Man Winter and Rain. From the looks of the smiles and swinging couples, the Deke lodge was still the best place to warm-up, dry out, meet old friends, and dance to one of the many bands engaged during the season. With the return of the old grads at Home- coming, the lodge seemed to mellow a little and assume a sentimental, but accelerated atmosphere. The Thanks- giving holidays saw us with many things for which to be thankful, but instead of resting on our laurels, we plan on earning more.

KAPPA The Alpha Gamma Chapter of the Kappa Alpha Order was granted a charter at LSU in 1885. Continu- ing in our long tradition, we started another successful year last fall when KA pledged a select pledge class of twenty-eight outstanding boys. KA defeated DKE 20-6 in the annual Charity Bowl Game which netted $1450, a near record, for the under- privileged children ' s doll and toy fund at Christmastime. On January 19, the Alpha Gamma Chapter gathered with reverence to honor its great spiritual founder, Gen- eral 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-April of this year. The KA ' s dressed in costumes of Civil Wai- era, and their lovely dates, in beautiful dresses of the same period, set about to relive life as it was in the antebellum age. We delivered invitations by mounted, uniformed messenger, then donned Confederate uni- forms and southern gentlemen costumes, setting the stage for our trip back to the last century. At the beginning of the weekend, we proclaimed our secession from the Union, then hoisted the Stars and Bars and spent the rest of the weekend singing Dixie and enjoying ourselves in the delightful southern manner.

For- ty-seven young men were pledged to the Crescent and the Star. Kappa Sigs participated with distinction in numer- ous honorary, military, and social organizations on the campus. Of course, our social activities highlighted the year. We had parties after the football games, and who could forget our annual Christmas party. Also on the agenda was the party with the Chi Omegas for the orphans at Christmastime, the Cabaret Party, the Redhead Party, and our Founders ' Day banquet. The annual Stardust Formal with the presentation of our Sweetheart ranked highly among this year ' s social functions. Scholarship, as usual, was again a bright spot on our fraternity record. Scholarship inducements were pro- vided for superior grades by our national oganization and the local alumni chapter. Kappa Sigma is currently in quest of the Sweep- stakes trophy, and we feel that this is the year for the trophy to come back home. Kappa Sigma National can be justly proud of this, the Gamma Chapter of Kappa Sigma where brother- hood is a reality.

Upsilon, with more than 900 men initiated the largest chapter of the largest fraternity in the world- was established here at LSU in 1914. Lambda Chi has shown the way in many activities at LSU. This includes scholarship, fellowship, athletics, parties, and anything. Lambda Chi brains and brawn constructed the winning Homecoming decorations, and Lambda Chi athleti c prowess was shown in winning the football championship for the third straight year. The Lambda Chi ' s annually sponsor a service pro- ject, and this year Upsilon Zeta chapter sponsored an Easter Egg hunt for unfortunate children. Highlights of Upsilon ' s social calendar were many. Among these events were the football game afterparties, Christmas party, French Quarter Party, Mad Hatter ' s Ball, Jungle Party, Las Vegas Party, and our annual formal. These parties featured the music of Classee Bal- low, the Red Tops, the Eight Tones, the Creoles, Tommy Ridgeley, and Dave Bartholomew. Our Founders ' Day Banquet this year was given in honor of Dr. Houston T. Carnes, professor of mathematics and our faculty advisor. In every phase of campus life Lambda Chi Alpha is there to show the way. OFFICERS: Charles Grace, president; John Greer, vice president; Edward Moore, secretary; James Deaton, treasurer.

As usual, we ranked near the top in intramural sports, as proven by second place in our bracket last year. Our social calendar was full of activities, among which were the parties we gave after each football game, and the rush girl party. The Christmas party was a great success with the comic presents offering much humor to the affair. Later on, there was the Good Ship Phi Party, and then the Blue and White Formal an event which proved to exceed even our expectations. Phi Delta Theta prides itself on its high scholastic standing, evidenced by the large number of brothers holding membership in such honorary organizations as Pi Tau Sigma, Pi Mu Epsilon, Alpha Chi Sigma, Omi- cron Delta Kappa, Phi Eta Sigma, Mu Sigma Rho, and Alpha Kappa Psi. Military, service, and professional organizations also claim much of our time here at LSU. Every year each chapter of Phi Delta Theta has a special day set aside to perform a project of value to the community. Last year on National Community Serv- ice Day, the Phi Delt ' s took a questionnaire survey ask- ing the people in Baton Rouge about the Community Chest. Even though we ' re swamped with activities of all kinds, there ' s always a chance to relax over at the house with other members of the grand old fraternity.

But this doesn ' t mean that we are standing still, for our slogan now is watch us grow. The Fiji ' s are proud of their position on campus as we enter the tenth year of fraternal activity. Phi Gam can look back on ten years of increasing campus activity. For instance, Fiji ' s take an active part in the military, in student government, in debate, and in many pro- fessional, honorary, and religious organizations. The Black Diamond Ball was the highlight of our social season; however, we enjoyed many other informal parties. The best of these is always the Fiji Island Ball, where we get a chance to let our hair down amid sway- ing palms and sweet pineapples. All of this occurs right on the campus, too! Phi Gam ' s also participate in service functions. This year we and the Phi Mu ' s went to Jackson and put on a variety show for the patients there. Also, the Four Fiji ' s Quartet have sung at many churches throughout the city. We have experienced another excellent year, and ex- pect even greater things for the future. With this in mind, we are all watching the Fiji ' s march ahead. OFFICKKS: Art Roberts, treasurer; Pete Woodman, presi- dent; Brother Toler, historian; Richard Barton, secre- tary.

Beginning with a rush season that netted us one of the largest pledge classes on the campus, and certainly one we consider the best, we rolled through the first half of the school calendar. We battled our way through the interfraternity football games and won the championshi p of the gold bracket. We worked hard during election week and were re- warded for our effort by having several boys elected to office. We rocked and rolled through the social calendar with blasts every Saturday before and after the foot- ball games and parties each Wednesday night, honoring the pledge class of each sorority. Mid-way through the school year we could look back on a job well done, but there could be no slowing down, for the future promised even greater excitement. We looked forward eagerly to our annual Roman Party, which is famous, or should we say infamous, around the campus, and also our Founders ' Day celebration, and our annual Dream Girl Formal. This has been a busy semester for the pooped Pikes, but each brother will agree that it was worth the effort, for the fruits of his labor are evident in the pres- tige we have earned on the LSU campus this year. The shining Greek letters on the front of our house are the symbols of the shining glory and honor of Alpha Gam- ma Chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha.

With bands like Sugar Boy, Dave Bartholo- mew, the Red Tops, and the Eight Tones at rush parties; and with social highlights like the Corral Party, Stork Club Party, Beachcombers Ball, football parties, and Black and White Formal; SAE hits a social height un- excelled. Also on the social calendar are our Christmas and Easter parties for local orphans. The fraternity is proud of its scholastic record, too, which was a 1.485. SAE again remained near the top in athletic intra- murals. Our sponsor was Queen of the Fraternity Water Show last spring. As individuals, too, we boast SAE ' s name. Having SAE ' s as Student Council members, Senators, Cadet Corps Colonel, other ROTC officers, members of ODK, Phi Eta Sigma, Who ' s Who, Varsity Sports participants, honor award and scholarship winners, and members with near perfect averages, makes us justly proud of our brothers. Recognition in scholarship, athletics, leadership, charity work, social life, and fraternity doesn ' t just hap- pen. It ' s due to an obsession which can ' t be shaken one which explains why SAE ' s work and win.

September brought rushees to the House of Southern Woods, and with them long active meetings at night. The re- sults of this were evidenced by an excellent pledge class hoping to become actives. After Homecoming, Sigma Chi turned out in force to see the Four Fresh- men. The day the tickets went on sale, Diamond Ed Hill inquired about the Dress Circle seats, of which there were none. The Cadillac clientele just ain ' t fit to sit with the people! The Tulane party at the Bellemont was a mild blast for the Sigs. By December our new vice president. H. D. Salassi, and Doc Phillips were able to shave after G and M initiation. The annual Mother ' s Club Christmas party high- lighted the holiday season. March came to find the Sigs initiating their pledges and electing a new Sweetheart, whose elaborate presen- tation at the Sweetheart Formal was the most celebrated event of the year. April sighted traditional festivities as the ever successful Milk and Doughnut Party drew Sigs and their dates into the most fabulous get-ups imagin- able. The Pirogue Derby and Sorority Field Day was full of excitement, with fraternities and sororities competing for top honors. The pirogues proved useful to prankster Jackie Parker when he turned one of the pledges over in the LSU lake the day atfer the Derby. An all wet Jackie and a not too happy pledge with a water-filled diamond watch, merged from the lakes to the big white house where hardly anything ever happens.

All of the brothers got to- gether before Rush Week and completely redid the in- terior of the chapter house, setting the stage for our success. As usual, the Sigma Nu ' s retained their lofty perch on the LSU social ladder. Highlights of the social cal- endar were the rush girl party, the Christmas party, and our White Star Formal. Topping it all off, of course, was our annual piece-de-resistance, the Taxi Dance. This dance gives us a chance to dress up in waterfront cos- tumes. We always have a hilarious time trying to outdo each other in our loud garb. All the brothers participated in a successful athletic season, too. This was climaxed by the pledge-active foot- ball game and party. The Snakes were quite active in campus activities. We had members in G and M, Beta Alpha Psi, AIME, Delta Sigma Pi, Samurai, AIEE, Block Bridle, and many others. All in all, it was a great year for Sigma Nu one we ' ll be able to look back on with pride for a long, long time.

Xi chapter was established at LSU in 1937 and received its national charter in 1938. Culminating its most successful Rush season, Theta Kappa Phi embarked upon a memorable and gratifying year of fraternity life. The announcement of the top three in homecoming decorations again found Xi in the charmed circle, this time taking second place. The TKP ' s were once again very active in all cam- pus activities. In student government, Theta Kappa Phi is well represented. In the Kiwanis Pancake Festival, TKP was one of the eight fraternities that actively par- ticipated. Another charitable function was the Christmas party given for the orphans. Among the top social functions were the football parties after the games, Christmas party, spring ban- quet, and the South Sea Island Party. Also, of course, was our annual spring formal at the Cypress Room, at which time our Sweetheart was presented. Theta Kappa Phi has enjoyed another prosperous year on the LSU campus, as it has for the past twenty years. As for the next twenty, our members, with the optimism that a close band of brotherhood always be- stows, are looking forward to continued success.

Pre-game buffets and post-game parties were held before and after Tiger football games. On the fraternity level the pledge- active game was a rip-roaring, laugh-filled contest which closed the season for the Zebes. The annual Blue and White Formal took prece- dence as the outstanding social affair of the year. One Saturday as the sun sank slowly in the west, the ZBTahi- tis ' had their annual crayfish supper and Tahiti party. All had an enjoyable time; inclusive were the rep ' s of all frat row. Our pledges play a big part in frat life, too. This Christmas they decorated a Baton Rouge orphan ' s home and gave a party for the children. They also gave a pledge-active party in February before initiation. Once again the scholars of Zebe placed us in an en- viable third place among all frats. Many prominent members of the campus are housed at the white-col- umned structure on frat row. Interfraternity athletics were our pride; the Sweepstakes Trophy now resides atop our crowded trophy case ! ! A number of first places in sports were pulled down by the Pi-men. Yes, it has been a good and prosperous year at ZBT. Hopefully we look forward to a bigger and brighter fu- ture.

Delta Sigma Phi was founded at the College of the City of New York on December 10, 1899. Since that time it has been a thriving organization and is now one of the largest international social fraternities. A progressive program has helped Delta Sig grow to over ninety ac- tive chapters throughout the United States and Canada. Some outstanding Delta Sigs on campus are Dr. Harry J. Bennett, professor of oology; L. C. Cooper, professor of engineering: and our chapter supervisor, Major Jack S. Herrington. Our present housemother, whom we are very happy to have with us, is Mrs. Mary N. Young. One of our most outstanding Delta Sig parties is the Sailors Ball where everyone has a chance to bring- out their ragged costumes. Other annual events are the Carnation Ball, spring formal, and the Founders ' Day banquet. We also select a dreamgirl in the spring of each year.

At the present time our chapter is going through a period of reorganization which we hope will bring us in the verv near future to our proper place alongside the other fraternities on campus. Our annual convention was held at R.P.I., Troy, New York, with the participation of all the active chap- ters in the I ' nited States. It was a real success, and once more it consolidated our ideals of Pan-Americanism. At LSU we have had programs and themes for dis- cussion in keeping with our basic ideal of Pan-Ameri- can union and friendship. Throughout the year this subject has been important to us the role that we. members of Phi Iota Alpha, should play as the economic, social, and political leaders of the Latin America of tomorrow. Within the framework of our fraternity, we have found some of the answers to these questions. OFFICERS: Luis Dutari, treasurer; Tomas E. d ' Escrivan, president; Edwardo Vallarino, secretary.

The wheels of the big machine are beginning to roll again for Alpha Kappa Chapter of Sigma Pi. We started the school year with a successful rush season, and a new ambitious pledge class. Since reactivating less than a year ago, Alpha Kappa now boasts an enrollment of twenty active members and has made plans for estab- lishing a fraternity house in the near future. Homecoming was a big time for us, as we joined together in making a Dietzel Steam Roller. At Christ- mastime we had a grand party getting together with the Teke ' s. Our annual Orchid Ball was a big success once again, and initiation was a solemn experience not soon to fade from memory. After much hard work, we can proudly say that our chapter is on its own again ready to occupy its proper place among the other fraternities on campus. TAU KAPPA EPSILON BETA PHI CHAPTER ESTABLISHED AT LSU 1948 r ' . fc ft Since the establishment of TKE at LSU in 1948, its members have accomplished many outstanding feats. while beinii bound in their fraternal spirit. Outstanding members of Teke on the campus in- clude the president of the student body, the president of the College of Arts and Sciences, and the past president of the College of Agriculture. Two Tekes belong to ODK. and many top ranking officers in the ROTC are also Tekes. Teke ' s chapter advisor, Dr. Philip West, Boyd Pro- fessor of Chemistry, received the American Chemical Society ' s Award as the outstanding chemist in the South- west. The Tekes hold many social events during the year, some of which were the informal parties after the foot- ball games, the Christmas party, and the Red Carnation Ball in the spring, at which time the Sweetheart of TKE was chosen. Tau Kappa Epsilon attained a well rounded sphere of activities including patricipation in interfraternity athletics, homecoming decoratons, songfest, and so forth. The Tekes have also placed first on campus in scholar- ship for the past three years. FIRST Row: Tom Alexander. James Backstrom. Robert Burchard, Kenneth Conly, William Dilks, Crayton Fargason.

Theta Xi Fraternity was founded at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, April 29, 1864. Alpha Alpha Chapter was established at LSU in 1921. Our faculty advisor is John J. Capdeveille, Jr., director of men ' s housing. The purpose of Theta Xi is to provide a college home environment for its active members in which fel- lowship and alumni guidance lead to wholesome mental, moral, physical, and spiritual growth. To that end Theta Xi actively supports and augments college and community efforts to make individual members more mature and chapter groups more useful units of society. Our special project this year was an Easter Egg hunt for the orphanage. Our Shipwreck Party in the spring, as well as our spring formal, was anticipated by all members. Pledges were finally initiated in February with a banquet following for all members. SAMURAI LOCAL INTERFR ATERNITY ESTABLISHED AT LSU 1932 Samurai is an honorary interfraternity consisting of five members elected from fraternities on this cam- pus. Samurai ' s aim is to promote friendly relations among the various fraternities on the campus, and to unit in a common bond men who possess character, in- telligence, integrity, and compatibility. Our social functions consist of parties given through- out the school year, some of which are stag, and, of course, some with dates, too. These parties are well deserving of the reputation given diem a good time had by all. I ' m a Dagger, I ' m a Dagger, I ' m a Dagger till I die . . . can be heard just before initiation as Samurai ' s pledges gallantly open doors for coeds and march around the campus carrying their daggers.

Have you ever wondered just who ran the inter- fraternity sports events, and just how all games were planned as to date, time, and opponent? Pictured on this page are a group of young men, representative of their individual fraternities, who make these decisions with the assistance of Mr. Harry Taylor, head of the Intramural Department of the University. One member from each of the fraternities on the campus is on the council. Each member is responsible for notifying his fraternity when they have an event scheduled. Recently the council climaxed their active year by awarding the two sweepstakes trophies at the annual Fra- ternity Water Show, one to the smaller fraternity league, and one to the larger.

An L. S. U. tradition started back in 1938 was carried on this year when the male populous elected Miss June Pitre to reign as the Darling of L.S.U. for 1957-58. June, the second freshman to be crowned with this honor, was chosen as one of twenty-five finalists from among 137 nominees. The young brunette beauty was presented to the campus in a Palace of Roses, a production staged for the GUMBO Bail by Gene Quaw. Having achieved such fame as a freshman, June can expect many more honors before her college career is ended. 320 I New Orleans . . . Freshman . . . Graduate of Ursuline Acad- emy . . . R.O.T.C.
