ALMA MATER By LLOYD FUNCHESS and HARRY DOWNEY Where stately oaks and broad magnolias shade inspiring halls, There stands our dear old Alma Mater who to us recalls Fond memories that waken in our hearts a tender glow And make us happy for the love that we have learned to know. All praise to thee, our Alma Mater, moulder of mankind, May greater glory, love unending, be forever thine. Our worth in life will be thy worth, we pray to keep it true, And may thy spirit live in us forever, L.S.U.

Who have changed somewhat through rhe years in dress and manner, but whose spirit has always remained the same. In 1860 the young men came, little realizing the future scope of this new path to knowledge. Later, came the women, our first coeds, daring to accept the challenge of a man ' s world. And after these, the flapper and sheik, who even in the midst of that gay, mad era could not quite forget their responsibilities toward themselves and later generations. And so, the student has evolved, as do all things which must progress, into these that we see on the following pages. Certainly they have changed in many respects, but the spirit of seeking has not changed; it burns per- haps now more brightly than ever. In these confused times as never before, they realize the part they must play in unlocking the door to a better world and that education is the key to that door. To all these men and women who have made our university not only what it is today but what it will be to- morrow, this yearbook is respectfully dedicated. ls?64 t J V . - ' HISTORY ACTIVITIES TTT ADMINISTRATION IV PUBLICATIONS GREEKS ATHLETICS VII MILITARY VTTT CLASSES A university is a great mass of concrete and steel . . . the seemingly eternal sound of an air drill . . . naked girders silhouetted against a sunset . . . progress . . . building for the future. But a university is more, much more than this. It is people who breathe life into the empty buildings ... a boy who rushes from classes to a part- time job ... an English professor at the football game ... a rushee with an obvious attack of nerves ... a graduate walking into an oral exam. Because of these people, a university feels every mood . . . the tension as the prof hands out a final exam . . . the roar of excitement that sweeps across the stadium on a chilly autumn night . . . waiting for a stubborn phone to ring ... a candlelight church service . . . opening a faded, crackling manuscript to find, living, vibrant ideas. To these people, a university has a voice ... a bell ringing ... the twelve o ' clock whistle . . . laughter filtering down the hall . . . the crash of cymbals when the Alma Mater is played. These are the faces, the voices, the spirit of L.S.U. These are the mem- ories which will linger in future years. This is L.S.U. % -f- A CENTURY OF ACHIEVEMENT FOUNDATION OF THE FUTURE . . . where the principles of truth and honor may be established, and a noble sense of personal and patriotic and religious duty inculcated; in fine, to fit the citizen to perform justly, skillfully, and magnanimously all the offices both private and public of peace and war. From the Charter of the University GENERAL WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN CENTURY OF ACHIEVEMENT The time-- 1860; the event the planting of a seed of knowledge in the fertile soil of central Louisiana a seed which is destined to blossom into a mighty oak, casting its shadow over the entire state. One hundred years ago die Louisiana State Seminary of Learning and Military Academy, die insti- tution which today is one of the greatest centers of learning in die Soudi, began its classes in a small 3 -story building in the pinewoods of Rapides Parish widi a total enrollment of 73 boys. Its founding was audiorized by die State Constitution of 1845, and made possible in 1855 when the legislature appropriated the funds for die purchase of 438 acres of land and buildings. But it was not a reality until late in 1859, due to poor construction and yellow fever. The first classes began on Janu- ary 5, 1860. The character of die Seminary was fixed as a literary and scientific institution under a military system of government on a program and plan similar to diat of die Virginia Military Institute. Five professors guided die course of die institution in its early years. Heading die faculty as superintendent and professor of engineering was William Tecumseh Sherman. Francis W. Smidi was commandant of cadets and professor of chemistry. David French Boyd taught ancient languages and English; Andiony Y alias a native of Hungary tutored die cadets in madiematics and natural philosophy; and E. Berte St. Ange, a Frenchman, taught modern languages. When enrolling, die cadets had to promise not to marry while a student, nor to make debts or re- ceive spending money from home. This would seem radier drastic to present-day college students, as would an average day of die college student of 1860. The cadets rose at daybreak, cleaned dieir rooms, studied until breakfast at 7 A.M. Classes began an hour later and lasted until 4 P.M., when they drilled for an hour. Supper was at sundown, and diey studied again until 10 P.M. The only recreation available was in die form of literary exercises, fishing expeditions or such games as chess and backgammon. The second session began on November 1. 1860 with a total enrollment of 115. It was during diis The few free hours left to the cadets after classes were spent in their rooms studying by coal- oil lamps.

Sherman had previously made his position clear: he didn ' t believe in abolition or secession and he would not remain at the Seminary or in the state if Louisiana seceded. The United States Arsenal at Baton Rouge was seized by the state forces on January 10, 1861, and the ordinance of secession was passed on January 26th of that same year. Sherman resigned and re- entered the Union army the next day. Professor Vallas was named acting superintendent. Smith, Boyd. and Clarke also resigned, but to enter the Confederate service. Most of the cadets left as soon as the war broke, but the institution continued to operate until 1863, when Banks army invaded the Red River Valley. Following the war in 1865 the Seminary re-opened with Colonel David French Boyd as superintend- ent. When he reported to the Seminary, he found the grounds and buildings almost in ruin. Scientific equipment, books and furniture had all been taken by the Federal troops. The Seminary was fortunate in securing favorable legislation for several years immediately following the war, in spite of the chaotic political and governmental conditions. From 1865 to 1869 the Seminary had a nominal income which seemed large enough for its needs. However, in 1867 the Reconstruction Acts were passed which almost resulted in the destruction of the school a few years later when the State The old iron kettle lying west of the Audubon Sugar School was used by Etienne De Bore in 1795 when he granulated sugar for the first time. There is still a great deal of mystery regarding the absence of the Penta- gon ' s fifth side, which some people believe may have been swept into the Mississippi River. . - . . ' T : V. The cluttered appearance of our laboratories has changed little since 1900, when chemistry classes were held on the old Army Post. Home of L.S.U. presidents, 1886-1931. Legislature became openly hostile. The race question was the conflict. The 1868 Constitution required that Negroes be admitted to any public school in the state. The University consistently refused admis- sion. Fear of trouble caused several of the best professors to leave and made parents reluctant to send their sons to the Seminary. In October of 1869 the Seminary building was destroyed by fire. As a result of this the institution was moved to Baton Rouge and located in the building housing the School for the Deaf. The name was changed the next year to Louisiana State University. The most precarious period of the University ' s existence was during the time it was located in these quarters. A disinterested state government caused numerous problems. Professors frequently were not paid. The superintendent himself seldom got use of his salary after 1869 and loans to students, pro- fessors, and employees absorbed much of what he drew out. In fact, had it not been for the foresight and perseverance of Colonel Boyd, the institution might have failed miserably. Boyd ' s guidance during the long and bitter controversy over the support of the University during these years was climaxed by its merger in 1877 with the Agricultural and Mechanical College, which was at that time located in New Orleans. This union absolved the violent conflicts which had been arising because of the competition for funds between the two schools. Three years after the merger of the two institutions Colonel Boyd resigned as president because of certain animosity and political pressure from the state Legislature. Colonel William Preston Johnson was named his successor; but Colonel Johnson served for only three years before he submitted his resig- nation, after which Colonel Boyd was re-named to the presidency. In 1886 the location of the University was again changed. This new site, the final before moving to the present location, was on the army post on the north side of Baton Rouge where the state Capitol building is currently located. Finding that there was considerable opposition to his administration, Colonel Boyd again resigned, and Colonel J. W. Nicholson, a distinguished mathematician, became president. Colonel Nicholson guided the institution for a period of eight years. During this period the courses of study were enlarged and improved, particularly in agricultural work. It was also during this period 18 Football rules have become considerably more complex since this 1902 LSU-Auburn game. ( ' w ' mm T. 1 This early veterinary science class was an important stage in the development of L-S.U. ' s agricultural pro- gram. that the first football team was organized under two of the professors, Dr. Charles Coates and Dr. H. A. Morgan, and the first in the LSU-Tulane grid classics was played. The purple and gold colors were chosen because the local merchants happened to have an abundance of those colors in stock for the impending carnival season. Early losses caused the administration to decide to enlist the services of a professional coach; therefore in 1894 A. P. Simmons of Yale was hired. LSU ' s first home game against Ole Miss on December 3, 1894, was a 26-6 loss, even with Coach Simmons playing in the backfield. In the following year it was a different story, however, as this Simmons-coached team, was the University ' s first undefeated team. Since various teams around the country were adopting the names of ferocious animals and since purple and gold looked tigerish enough, the University team in 1896 became the I SU Tigers. The first undefeated and unscored upon team came in 1908 with E. A. Chavanne, left tackle and captain of the Tiger team, as head coach. For the next 50 years the 1908 team was the one by which all the teams were measured. Until 1958 it was the only undefeated and untied team in the history of the University. Colonel Nicholson, being primarily interested in the writing of textbooks, resigned the presidency in 1896. He was succeeded by Thomas D. Boyd, the brother of David Boyd. Under this younger Boyd ' s administration, which lasted for thirty-one years, the University grew from a small institution of less than 300 enrollment to a well-financed University of nearly 2,000 students. Thomas Boyd had to cope with many problems ranging from low student morale to lack of funds. Systematically and effectively he solved these problems and parallel to his accomplishments the University took on a new life. With greater financial support the University grew, resulting in a need for the replacement of the out-moded structures built nearly 100 years before. It was during this period that several contributions The members of this 1907 squad are the rugged ancestors of our present-day Fighting Tigers.

The 1907 Coed Club was the first women ' s organization on the L5.U. campus. were made which made the financing of certain construction projects. Notable among these were the William Garig gift of 10,000 for the construction of an assembly hall and the John Hill donation of $33,000 for a library. These beginnings marked the start of a period of construction that was to result in almost a totally new University plant. During this physical expansion courses were being added, and the academic standards were being im- proved. The Law School was established u $d6 and two years later the University was reorganized into schools and colleges. The year 1904 marked the intrusion of co-education on the LSU campus when Miss Olivia Davis was permitted to enroll in a calculus class taught by Dr. Nicholson. Two years later the first freshman class of women, numbering seventeen, were enrolled. The number of women students increased rapidly and new courses were organized to meet their needs. In 1910 the University marked the end of a period of broad expansion by commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the institution. The celebration was followed by another period of expan- sion of the institution from a departmental standpoint. The departments of Forestry, Speech, Journal- ism, Music and Home Economics were established. The Department of Geology, which had been ex- tinct for several years, was re-established. An emphasis was placed on the new Department of Agricul- tural Extension bringing about a revival of interest in scientific agriculture in the state. These enlarged agricultural facilities were largely responsible for the construction of the Greater University on the present campus. It was realized sometime earlier that the University site was too small and that adjacent property could not be bought. It was found that the Gertness Plantation, a krge tract about three miles south of Baton Rouge, was for sale. After much discussion in the legislature the bill appropriating the money for the purchase was passed. Thomas W. Atkinson was president of the University at the time and saw the institution through the major part of the move. Construction of the first building, a dairy barn, began on March 29, 1922, and classwork was begun at the new plant in September of 1925. The cadet corps was moved from the old barrack to the dormitories of the new campus in 1926; however, the classes for freshmen and sophomore women were conducted 23 The Boyd Literary Society was named for Thomas Duckett Boyd, outstanding presi- dent of L.S.U. in the years 1896-1927. on the old campus until 1932. The campus was dedicated officially on April 30, 1926, the anniversary of the admittance of Louisiana into the Union. Several important changes in the schools and colleges were affected in 1931 giving new life and emphasis to the life and progress of the institution. The swelling enrollment comprised not only of stu- dents from Louisiana, but from other states and abroad as well created a demand for many new courses. As a result in a short period of only four years the Schools of Geology, Medicine, Library Sci- ence, Journalism, Forestry, Music, Dentistry, and Pharmacy were established as well as the College of Pure and Applied Science, the Institute of Industrial Research, the Graduate School, and the Depart- ments of Fine Arts and Religious Education. During the period immediately preceding the depression the enrollment almost doubled. This growth can be properly attributed to the wholesale enlargement of the University ' s program, the broadening and improving of the courses of study and the greater use of its facilities in promoting the educational welfare of the State. During this period the University expanded its program of activities to include almost every community in the State. And through extension work it has made its vast facilities available and useful to the professional, the business and agricultural groups of the state. During the administration of James Smith in the mid and late 1930s the Legislature generously ap- propriated funds and approved a constitutional amendment, subsequently ratified by the voters, provid- General Robert Lee Bullard de- livered the address at the formal dedication of the new campus April 30, 1926. The beginnings of modern dancing at L.S.U. can be seen in this Grecian tableau of 1928. The famous Huey P. Long, staunch sup- porter of L.S.U., joins the cheerleaders at the sidelines. . In an effort to forget the impending war, students of the late JO ' s kicked up their heels to dances like the Big Apple. ing for a small insurance tax for the support of the University. This additional revenue made it possible for additional construction which included a large dormitory for women (the first ever des igned for women at LSU) , a Music and Dramatic Arts Building, a building for the School of Medicine in New Orleans, and a practice house for home economics students. The 1930s were years to brighten the hearts of any sports-loving alumnus and memorable ones for students. The spectacles included the 200 piece LSU band, the purple-clad women ' s cheering section, the football specials led by LSU ' s No. 1 fan, Huey P. Long and the coming of LSU ' s best-loved tradition, Mike the Tiger. By 1933 the Tigers had made the big time. They ranked second to Alabama in SEC, and fifth and sixth nationally. Under Bernie Moore the 1935 team was the conference cham- pions for the first time since 1908, tied for second place nationally with TCU and placed their first All-American Gaynell Tinsley into the ranks. The 1935 Tigers were the first to play a bowl game. On January 1, 1936, they were defeated 3-2 by TCU in the Sugar Bowl. Until the 1958 Tigers defeated Clemson 7-0, LSU had never won a Sugar Bowl game. Mike the Tiger came to the University November 21, 1936, and was welcomed by a student strike and a gigantic parade. Named in honor of Mike Chambers, who originally suggested the purchase, he was bought by student contributions. Mike the Tiger served the University as a mascot faithfully for almost 20 years before his death on June 29, 1956. The presidents of LSU in the early 1940s, Paul M. Hebert and Campbell B. Hodges, saw the be- ginnings of such structures as the new Arts and Science buildings, the French House, and several addi- tional residences for men and women. By this time enrollment had sky-rocketed to the 6000 ' s, creating even more expansion problems. The tenth man to serve as president of the University was William B. Hatcher. His appointment to the presidency in 1944 came as a recognition of his administrative abilities, his scholarship, and his years of devotion to public education. During his administration he faced the problems o f veterans re- turning from the War, physical problems of housing and classroom space, academic problems of ad- missions and credits, and problems arising from a greatly increased enrollment and a large proportion of students who were more advanced than usual students in experience and maturity. Hatcher, having to retire because of ill-health, was succeeded for a very short time by Fred C. Frey who acted as president for a period less than one year. He was replaced by Harold W. Stoke who remained for a period of four years before leaving the position. Normal life at the university was interrupted by the sudden advent of World War II. s In commemorating LSU ' s centennial, a color film was produced depicting the university ' s progress. Stoke was followed by the current president, Troy H. Middle ton, who had previously served the Uni- versity as commandant of cadets. General Middleton has worked to stress the importance of maintaining the high educational stature of the institution and to increase academic standards on all sides. Under General Middleton ' s guidance the University began a building program in the early fifties, the weight of which is just now being totally felt. Since 1950 many new structures have been completed on the main campus alone, including 5 new dormitories for men plus an addition to the stadium dormitory, Highland Cafeteria, the University Lab School and Gymnasium, a number of new fraternity houses, a golf club house, an addition to the Mili- tary and Air Science Building and a large new library. This period of building brought to a close the Century of Achievement. The foundation for the future of progress is being laid on the solid foundations of even more con- struction and expansion. Currently being built are buildings for feed and fertilizer laboratories and the electrical engineering, industrial education, and home economic departments. So with this spreading of the institution to two additional campuses, one in New Orleans, the other in Alexandria (the founding sight) , and the plans for such structures as a new student union, a physics and astronomy addition, and an addition to the administrative, Boyd Halls, the University is preparing for the projected enrollment of 20,000 by 1970.

S. U. L.S.U. began as the Louisiana State Sem- inary of Learning and Military Academy, which opened its first session on January 2, 1860. Gen- eral William Tecumseh Sherman was the first president and headed a faculty of five. Today the school, faculty, and number of students has redoubled itself, yet L.S.U. is headed by another general, Troy H. Middleton. Our president has been a member of the Louisiana State University administrative staff for thirty years and has held the positions of Dean of Men, Dean of Administration, Acting Vice-President, and Comptroller. President Middleton has shouldered the problems and re- sponsibility of supervising the education of the students in the University and he has proven his abilities as both an educator and an administra- tor. Members of the Board of Supervisors, seated left to right: Margaret Dixon, C. V. Dugas, Minos H. Armentor, President, Troy H. Middleton, Theodore F. Cangelosi, John J. Doles, Joseph C. LeSage, Jr., Samuel B. Thornton, John A. Hickman. THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS The Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University is com- posed of sixteen members who are appointed to their position by the governor and who serve for a period of fourteen years. The mem- bers include citizens from all parts of the state who serve as repre- sentatives for the University in the State Legislature, from which operational funds are obtained. In any university as large as L.S.U., the burden of supervising the education of the students is a tremendous responsibility. Our Board of Supervisors plays an important role in maintaining our university as one of the outstanding in the nation. MINOS H. ARMENTOR THEO. F. CANGELOSI, Chairman MRS. J. MUNCY DIXON JOHN J.

FRYE Dean of School of Medicine EVERETT TIMM Dean Director of School of Music EARL E. KLEIN Director, School of Social Welfai Dr. George Hamlett, instructor, dis- cusses a problem with two of the stu- dents in the microanatomy Labora- tory. A group of sophomore students in the pharmacology laboratory work on their assigned problem for the day. SCHOOL OF MEDICINE The School of Medicine in New Orleans has become the proving grounds for many young men aspiring to be doc- tors. Whether they be in the classroom, experimenting in the laboratories, helping in the wards of Charity Hospital, or studying long hours into the night for exams, these medical students are trying to prove themselves worthy to enter their chosen profession. Realizing the problems before them, these doctors-to-be are in constant search of explana- tions to the dilemma of life. On location of a scene of a movie being made of the Louisiana State University Medical School. Graduate nursing stu- dents learn Red Cross teaching methods in home nursing. Caring for a patient in a respirator is demonstrated by a few of the graduate nursing students. The members of the Louisiana State University Nursing Associa- tion are gathered with Sister Henriette to discuss plans for their next meeting. DEPARTMENT OF NURSING Since 1931, the Department of Nursing, in New Orleans, has been an active section of the School of Medicine. At- tending lectures, assisting in the hospital, reading to the patients, and the attaining of patience itself all lead to one outcome positions in professional nursing in hospitals, public health agencies, or other organized nursing services. The student nurse finds a curriculum designed to equip her with a thorough knowledge of the fundamental human re- lationships as well as a broad understanding of their appli- cation in our society. The future lawyers of Louisiana face problems in Moot Court which they are likely to meet in their anticipated fields. No law student will deny that he spends most of his working hours studying for the degree which will enable him to practice law. SCHOOL OF LAW Looking from the Campanile across the parade ground, one envisions the hive for many young men who are pre- paring themselves for the practice of law in Louisiana where the civil law legal system prevails. From dawn to dusk, the law library to an exam, the Law dorms to the Lawyers Ball, each student equips himself with a knowledge of the prin- ciples of law which he will apply to the society in which he lives. These aspiring young lawyers spend several years working and learning before legal responsibility is thrust upon them. After a day of torts, contracts, and government, the Law student leaves his home away from home thinking about the long hours of studying to come. Surrounded by books containing great knowledge, the graduate student burns the midnight oil hoping to transfer some of this learning from the books to his mind. To all graduate students, the most familiar s etting is that of rows and rows of books in the graduate school library from which material for a final thesis is gathered. GRADUATE SCHOOL Listening to the professor in seminar classes, pouring earnestly through old books, working constantly on the final thesis, and studying into the wee hours of the morning con- stitute a normal day of the graduate student who is in con- stant search of the answer to questions. Several semesters and many books later, with a finished thesis, a B average, and his armor of knowledge, the graduate student enters the competitive world of today to take his place in society and business. Extractions in the Bio-chemistry Laboratory are demonstrated by a graduate student at the medical school. The career of a person interested in so- cial welfare begins with the group and teacher assistance. SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WELFARE The School of Social Welfare, one of the younger schools on the L.S.U. campus, presents work both on the graduate and undergraduate level for the would-be social worker. The aim of the school is to provide knowledge and understanding of the social welfare services, of human growth and behavior, and of social work practice. As tnc_ student progresses in her work, sne moves into the area of individual interviews the importance of which is stressed by an able instructor. A climax to the students training and instruction is the visits to homes, offices, and areas in dire need of the social welfare services. i A music student ' s day consists of classes, voice lessons, piano lessons, chorus, and band practice. At night the stu- dent practices all that he has learned during the many long hours. His second home has become the Music and Dra- matic Arts Building. For his long and hard work, the music student is rewarded by his mastery of an art he has learned to appreciate a cultural heritage which has been handed down to us in the form of great music. Practicing for long hours every day helps the music major to de- veloping techniques which she will put to use at the end of the semester when she gives a recital. SCHOOL OF MUSIC Constant practice on the stadium field, in the music auditorium, and in the private practice rooms results in the form of the fine music of the L5.U. Tiger Band. Dallas Draper drills two of the sections of the University Chorus. The chorus is pre- paring for a program which will be given in the spring. Many days of frenzied activity culminate in the livestock- shows, which arc of special interest not only to the agricul- ture students, but also to 4-H clubbers and breeders through- out the state. COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE In sewing class, this co-ed learns an art that will be used over and over again now and in later life. Home of the rodeos here at L.S.U., basketball games, the scene of gradua- tion, and the symbol of the College of Agriculture, the coliseum is known to all students here on the campus. The College of Agriculture is one of the major units of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Me- chanical College, the institution designated by th; l;gisla- ture as the land-grant college of the State of Louisiana. From the practice house to the stock barns, it is th; coor- dination and cooperation among the three major divisions of service research, resident instruction, and agriculture extension that give this college its character and force in making its contributions toward the betterment of Louisiana agriculture. 98 While working in the Louisiana State University Museum, these students learn to stuff the animals whi ch are used for display, make the background for the display, and make such intricate things as the leaves which appear on a tree in a certain setting. Silence reigns until the bell rings for classes to end. Allen Hall then becomes a clamoring, mass confusion of students hurrying to their next class. The College of Arts and Sciences presents the student with a liberal education, which by its very nature is broad rather than narrow, and devoted to intellectual development and discipline rather than an acquisition of technical skills. From the clamor in the halls of Allen Hall to the quietness of a final exam, die student is working toward the end of familiarity with historical and political studies, the sciences, and die arts. I ! t COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES Most students who fre- quently go into Allen Hall will recognize man and various aspects of his life which decorates the wall. ' ..: Bewildered by the vast amount of homework, a harried accounting student appears to be loaded down with books. The future business leaders of Louisiana may be found working with ledgers or learning to use the business ma- chines in Himes Hall. The College of Business Administra- tion offers the student a highly varied program in the busi- ness and economic fields and maintains a division of research for the purpose of studying the business conditions in the state. Upon graduation from this college, the student is prepared to take his place in almost any status of the busi- ness world. COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION The student in secretarial science easily recognizes the tools of her trade and through study learns to use them accurately. A student in accounting carefully studies his assignment for the day before he begins work on the adding machine. Atoms, molecules, neculi, and electrons invade Coates Labora- tory in the form of a display for the open house given by the College of Chemistry and Physics. COLLEGE OF CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS Upon entering Coates Chemical Laboratories, one enters a world of equations, test tubes, and scientific questions. The College of Chemistry and Physics is composed of the Audubon Sugar School and the departments of Chemistry, Agricultural Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Physics and Astronomy. In their various fields of study, the students are trained to hold positions of trust and responsibility in industry and scientific research. ' To know the answer or not to know the answer ' is the question that this Physics student asks himself as he attempts to work his assigned problem for the benefit of the class. The proper use of the analytical balance is an important phase in the knowledge of quantitative chemistry. Here a graduate student carefully weighs an unknown substance. This prospective school teacher checks the bulletin board in Peabody Hall to see where she will be doing her practice teaching. These first grade students rush back to class from a much needed and much welcomed recess on the part of both the students and the student teachers. Whether the student in the College of Education is in a psychology class, playing cat and rat, in a student A.C.E. meeting, or practice teaching in the Laboratory School he is preparing himself for the moment when he will one day take his position as a molder of the minds of tomorrow. Realizing the great responsibility which lies before him, the student prepares himself to meet his challenge with the desire to help others learn and become the tomorrow of our nation. COLLEGE OF EDUCATION Practice teaching in the University Laboratory School gives the student teacher confidence and practical experience in the handling of children. Problems, problems and more problems are con- fronting the engineering student daily in his preparation for work in his chosen field of study. A course which every prospective engineer must take is Machine Shop. Here the students learn the use of various machines with which they might someday come in contact in their career. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The College of Engineering, one of the older colleges on the campus, offers students the best training possible in the fields of engineering and related areas. The classroom work is supplemented by work in the drafting room, the field, and the laboratory. From the Geology lab to a sum- mer spent working in the oil fields, the engineering student enters into a curriculum which will prepare him to one day take his place in the field of engineering. A survey in architectural design and an insight into the work ahead have been provided for students studying architec- tur e by the renovation of the buildings on the campus. A part of every freshman boy ' s life is the experience of wearing pajamas to the first home football game. The attire of the day is the loudest pajamas that can be found and the hated freshman beanies. The rush and bustle of lining up with the R. O. T. C., the heat of the sun pouring down or rain as the case may be, the march across the parade ground, the crowning of the King and Queen, and the raising of the Freshman Flag this was Freshman Day. JUNIOR DIVISION The chance of a lifetime, the fun for a lifetime, the dreams of a lifetime, and the change for a lifetime this is Junior Division. It is at this time the student meets a broad and liberal education which will enable him to view the various facets of the University. In Junior Division, the freshmen are aided in their journey down their various pathways of life to tomorrow. Another part of being a freshman is the elections of the Freshmen officers and the scrimmages at the polls to get the favorite son into office. STUDENT GOVERNMENT STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION The establishment of the Student Government Associa- tion was made in 1958 when the Student Body Constitu- tion was revised. All legislative powers have been placed in the hands of the Student Council. Whether in the confer- ence room, at a meeting with the faculty, in a meeting with the Deans, these people represent you, the students of L.S.U. DAVID WALKER President ROBERT McCALL Vice-f resident LORETTA RIVERS Co-Ed Vice-President STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, which holds the legislative power of the S.G.A., is headed by the vice-president of the Student Body.

At the present time, there are one hundred and one chapters throughout the United States. Blazer Chapter of Mortar Board was established at L.S.U. in 1934. Its members chosen on the basis of distinction in leader- ship, scholarship, and service, are capped at the Honors Day Convocation in the Spring. With Omicron Delta Kappa, the Chapter sponsored the Honors Day Convocations and Homecoming information booths. In December, Chapter members entertained junior women with a 2.0 average at a Smarty Party. Highlights of the year for members of Blazer Chapter were the visits of the section advisor and participation of the Chap- ter in a section meeting at the University of Alabama.

Gamma Upsilon Chapter was found- ed at L.S.U. on May 10, 1934. The Chapter ' s present member- ship numbers close to 90 students and faculty members. In order to accomplish its end, Kappa Delta Pi invites to membership such persons as exhibit commendable person il qualities, worthy educational ideals, and sound scholarship. It endeavors to maintain a high degree of professional fellowship among its members and to quicken professional growth by hon- oring achievement in educational work. 125 KAPPA KAPPA PSI OFFICERS SYLVAIN TAUZY President RONALD BEVELIN V ice-President GORDON JOHNSON Secretary JOHN BRUCE Treasurer Kappa Kappa Psi, national band fraternity, strives to main- tain a high degree of spirit and performance among its mem- bers and to promote greater musical achievements.

The GUMBO is honored to have the task of recording the campus life of this celebrated centennial year. Compiling a book of this sort is not easy, and has presented many problems to its editors, who have been busy organizing it since last summer, when work officially got under way at Benson Printing Company, Nashville, Tennessee. To begin with, the over-all plans of the book had to be formulated. Numerous visits were paid by Dan Eadie, the GUMBO advisor at Benson, in order that he might guide the progress of the book.

I THE REVEILLE JIM GRAIN, Managing Editor CHARLES LENNOX, Sports Editor JANE GOLDSTEIN, Editor Clanking typewriters, clanging telephones, empty coke bot- tles, hurried feet, deadlines, late hours these are a few of the sounds, sights and objects that somehow become involved in the production of the University ' s student newspaper, The Daily Reveille. Organized and produced like a city newspaper, The Reveille is published four times weekly, except for holidays, and is written and edited entirely by students. Editorial offices are in Alumni Hall, and the advertising department operates from the L Building. Before the editorial staff begins work on the paper, adver- tising salesmen solicit ads. The volume of advertising on a particular day determines the size of that day ' s newspaper. Reporters, for the most part, are recruited from an advanced reporting class offered by the School of Journalism. Each re- porter is assigned a beat or a certain segment of the campus for which he or she is responsible for covering in order to obtain news and feature stories. Once written, the stories are edited by paid news editors who are selected by a Student Publications Committee each semester. News editors correct the stories and arrange them as they will appear in the paper the following day. Usually a news PFTER HOL ' CK. News Editor ANN PIPPEN, News Editor NANCY ALLENBAUGH, News Editor editor ' s job is completed by midnight. The stories are taken to the print shop which is housed in the L Building where they are set in type, corrected and put into page form. Other editorial staff members include the editor, who is in charge of the paper ' s editorial policy and is responsible for the editorial page; the managing editor, who assigns stories to reporters and pictures to photographers; and the photogra- phers, whose duties are evident. A faculty adviser who con- sults and guides the editorial staff, is also important to the production of The Reveille. ED ST. LOUIS, BOB LEDBETTER, PHIL MASSEY, advertising staff.

THE ALUMNI NEWS The LSU Alumni News, the official publication of the LSU Alumni Federation, is one publication that the average student on the LSU campus knows little or nothing about. This magazine is for graduates and former students who have joined the Alumni Fed- eration. The purpose of the Alumni News is to keep the alumni actively interested in LSU by showing them the programs and the problems of LSU. It is through the Alumni News that the former students hope to cope with University problems by getting a united action by the alumni. The Alumni News helps former Tigers keep in contact with each other because the magazine reaches over 20,000 alumni. The Alumni News covers every phase of the University such as articles on research, resident instructors, athletics, and campus ac tivities of general interest. Some of the articles are written by prominent LSU graduates. One such article is the one to be written in the April edition by Hubert Humphrey, hopeful Democratic presidential can- didate, on Soviet education vs. United States education. A keynote to this year ' s edition has been the LSU Centennial. There are two standing sections in the Alumni News. One is clannote, which shows in pictures as well as in words what the former Tigers are doing. This is by far the most popular section. The most important section is the second, which is devoted to the activities and programs of the Alumni Federation itself. 150 ANNUAL RING STAFF, left to right: Arnold Smith, Bill Echols, Lonnie Aliley, Allen Bedell, Cesar Por- tocarrero. CESAR PORTOCARRERO Editor THE ANNUAL RING The Annual Ring, official yearbook of the School of Forestry, is in its twenty-first year of publication. T his year under the fine leadership of Cesar Portocarrero promises to be better than ever. The Annual Ring will be bigger than any previous issue. The main theme of the Annual Ring will be immediately evidenced by the centennial emblem on the cover. The A nnual Ring has many purposes. One is the showing prospective students the prac- tical side of Forestry. The second and most important purpose of the Annual Ring is to show the activities of the Forestry school in the past year through pictures as well as words. The Annual Ring provides a permanent record of past experiences and fellow- ships with less emphasis on educational topics. The activities pictured as such events as summer camps, field trips, lab session parties, and picnics. In this way the Annual Ring helps enhance the fond memories of the alumni. The book is paid for by the cost of individual subscription and mainly through adver- tising. The advertisers bear the biggest expense and thus enable the Annual Ri ng to keep making progress equal to that of the school. 151 DELTA STAFF, left to right: Elizabeth Coleman, Rick Forester, Robert Cardwell, Rex Reed, Susan Weidman, Bill deGrummond, Ted Dameck, Ann Landau, Paul Chatelain. DELTA Delta, LSU ' s student literary magazine, was composed of one Editor and eight Asso- ciate Editors. Dr. C. S. Watson was the faculty advisor for the 1960 issue. Guest con- tributor Robert Penn Warren ' s poem Do You Agree With What I Say? Well, What Did I Say? was a highlight of the 1960 Delta. Delta publishes the best poems, short stories, essays, photography, etchings, and art work of the student body.

THE LAW REVIEW The Louisiana Law Review this year begins its twentieth annual volume. Many thou- sands of pages of print have been filled with scholarly essays coming from the pens of Louisiana State Law School students. The Louisiana Law Review is a scholarly journal devoted to the analysis and exposition. It was established to encourage high legal scholar- ship in the Law School student body, to act as an incentive to the more outstanding stu- dents and to provide a method of training the law student in research. The articles are written by lawyers, notes and comments are written by law students. It helps judges, attor- neys and law students by publishing information on current legal subjects. The four issues each year are edited by a staff of student editors with faculty co- operation and supervision. The student editors are chosen from the top ranking students in the Law School The two requirements are a high academic average, which is deter- mined primarily by grade distribution on the individual in his class, and secondly, by aptitude scores and pre-legal academic records of die individual 153 TIGER RAG STAFF, Seated, left to right: Bob Rivet, M.

THE TIGER RAG The Tiger Rag is published by the students of the LSU School of Medicine. Its basic purpose is to encourage individual thinking among the medical students who, as future physicians will live a selective and rewarding life that for the most part requires individ- uality. The Tiger Rag has a large circulation, which is distributed to the entire faculty, stu- dent body and is mailed to all graduates interning throughout the country. The Tiger Rag works closely with the Student Government in order to reach all the students and express their opinions or suggestions to the Dean and faculty. Conversely, we work closely with the Dean and faculty to convey opinions and suggestions to the students. The Tiger Rag, like all periodicals, has its problems, but the old proverb, You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can ' t please all the people all of the time, is still with us and we, the staff, live by it. Lastly the Tiger Rag reaches a select medical group and this is one of the few schools that gives the students a free hand in their publications. Censorship is nil, simply be- cause our Dean and faculty know that in the past, present and we hope the future, the Tiger Rag is for the most part a representative of the students and their way of thinking.

INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL OFFICERS CLAYTON MITCHELL President TOMMY HAYDELL Vice-President PADDY SMITH Secretary PHILIP SCHAEFFER Treasurer The Medical School Interfraternity Coun- cil functions in much the same way that other interfraternity councils functio n, in that we lay down the rules for rush, co-ordinate the fraternities ' rush parties, and assist in any way possible when any member so desires. Rush season extends over a period of ap- proximately three months, rather than a per- iod of one week during registration. The fra- ternities have a total of three rush paries each, which are interspersed in this 3-month period. These allow the student to become more familiar with the fraternities represent- ed and help him to make a decision in choos- ing a fraternity.

The local chapter was established in 1951 when a local group, the Caducians, petitioned the national fraternity. At present, there are chapters in almost all major accredited medical schools in the United States and Canada. Nu Sigma Nu provides a well-rounded social calendar which gives its members a means of relaxation from the scholastic and didactic aspect of Medical Schol life. More important, it provides its members with fellowship and stimulates mutual advances in the study and practice of medicine. In addition, it is a common place for the student members to meet the faculty and alumni to the benefit of all concerned. 197 PHI CHI First Row: Joseph Abadie, Frank Anzalone, Tuney Arceneaux, Arnold Barker, Rogers Bellow, William Bernard, Charles Ber- trand, Marshall Bice, Andrew Biles, James Blackburn, Robert Ble- reau.

OFFICERS TOMMY HAYDEL President GORDON BOWERS Vice-f ' resident JOHN DAVIS Secretary HUGH KING Treasurer Phi Beta Pi is one of the oldest and largest national medical fraternities. It was established at the University of Pittsburgh in 1894. Beta Zeta Chapter was established at LSU Medical School in 1933. Since that time its aims have been to promote better understanding and study among its members, to encourage good companionship, and provide relaxation from hard work encountered in a medical education. Among the planned social events of the year are three rush parties, the Christmas Dance, the Mardi Gras Masquerade Ball, Deep Sea Fishing Trip and a Steak Supper for Seniors. Much of the success of the social events can be attributed to the assistance of an active Wives ' Club. 200 SORORITIES INTERSORORTTIES HM Mrn.oru.1 L.kr y. Bu.ll 190} PANHELLENIC L F.

After a fun-filled workshop at the Oak Manor Lodge, Alpha Chi ' s entered Rush Week with enthusiasm. Alice In Alpha-Chi Land, our costume party, was a great success with the rushees. It climaxed Rush Week and was followed by the pledging of the greatest pledge class ever! On October 15, Beta Gamma chapter celebrated the sorority ' s founding atDePauw University in 1885. Highlighting the year was the spring formal at the new Holiday Inn. Music was provided by the Jokers, a popular local band. Alpha Chi was represented in many campus activities. Fraternity sweethearts in- cluded the Dream Girl of Phi Delta Theta and the White Rose of Sigma Nu. Alpha Chi ' s were in the courts of Phi Kappa Theta and Sigma Nu fraternities. In the military, the sorority was represented with sponsors and an officer of Angel Flight. With a member of the Morale Commission and Secretary-Treasurer of the College of Arts and Sciences, Alpha Chi had an active participation in student gov- ernment. Another honor for our sorority was the nomination of several members for Darling of L.S.U. An achievement we are proud of is the third place award for the best poster advertising the homecoming show. Profitable and quite enjoyable, the year was properly accented with the enthusiasm of the Centennial celebration.

When bid night finally came, the Pi ' s had their quota filled with 45 of the greatest girls on campus! Activities began there was the Bidnight Supper, the Chinese Bandit Party, the annual hayride to Camp Istrouma, the Big and Little Sister Christmas Party, the Formal at the Bellemont with the music by the Playboys, the Founder ' s Day Banquet, and the Banquet for the graduating seniors. Alpha Delta Pi ' s took part in the Sigma Chi Pirogue Derby, and also competed in the annual Song Fest. They presented the story of Sleeping Beauty in the Homecoming Decoration Contest, and held their annual Homecoming Tea on the same day. They were again asked to sing in the Homecoming Show, this one being very special, for it was the Centennial show. The pledges worked diligently on our National Project for Crippled Children, and our alums made the year complete with the fabulous ADPi Guides for Brides show at the Bellemont. Among ADPi ' s members are such outstanding persons as: President of WRA, SGA committee members, R.O.T.C. sponsors, Fraternity sweetheart court members, a GUMBO favorite, and 2 GUMBO beauties, the President of the Home EC Club, mem- bers of Alpha Lambda Delta, 2 Junior Editors of the GUMBO, some REW committee members, a member of the Freshman Day Court, a nominee for Homecoming Queen. and a finalist in the Freshman Cheerleader contest as well as 6 Freshmen Advisors. The Pi ' s ended their prosperous year with Houseparty, and the anticipation of a great year to come, their minds filled always with their open motto We live for each other.

Here we completed our rush plans, which were well underway at the beginning of the summer, and had lots of fun trading our summer experiences. This year our traditional Pie Party was replaced with our new Indian Pow Wow party, complete with giant teepees, Indian costumes and the Indian Love Call dance. After bids were extended, we welcomed twenty-one enthusiastic Pledglings into Alpha Omicron chapter. Pledging and the scrumptious supper which followed it were held at Monte Vista, beautiful plantation home of Mrs. Horace Wilkinson, III, of Port Allen. Time flew, then we were planning and soon building our homecoming decoration, which brought us our second straight First Place Trophy. A hilarious skit entertained actives and pledges at our Halloween party. On December 8, we marked our Founders ' Day with a banquet at the Capitol House. We had a Philanthropic Party at which we wrapped Christmas gifts for a needy family in Baton Rouge. We had two Christmas parties, one at which big and little sisters exchanged gifts, and another for members and their dates. Winter brightened into spring and we found ourselves having a grand time at our spring formal, at which we presented our new initiates. Then we left the campus to enjoy our spring houseparty. At our last social event of the year, we honored our graduating seniors and members ' mothers. Among the AOPi ' s are the Panhellenic President, freshman dorm president, Dar- ling contestants and members of campus honoraries, professionals, religious organi- zations, and publications staffs.

Everyone met to ex- change experiences from their summer vacations and to work together on the last minute details of formal rush. Rush week was really a rushed week. The week was climaxed by the pledging cere- mony and a pledge banquet for our new sisters. The banquet gave a big and little sister a chance to make plans for the coming year ' s activities. October was an important month for L.S.LJ. because of Homecoming, and Home- coming was important for Alpha Xi because we won the third place trophy for our decorations. Hardly had the Homecoming excitment subsided when the Christmas rush began. Christmas caroling, attending parties, visiting the orphanage, sending cards, and other activities kept us busy right up until the holidays. The second semester passed in a rush too. There was the Senior Breakfast, our Valentine party, Initiation Ceremony, Song Fest, Founder ' s Day Banquet, Province Convention, and the Rose Formal The pledges officially ended their pledge life when they were presented as new actives at the formal. It was almost unbelievable that the school year was over so soon. Much had hap- pened and many memories had been made. We all hated to see the year end, but we had our compensation; it had been a good year for Alpha XL ALPHA RHO CHAPTER BSO Gayle A.

We started off our stellar birthday year with two presents to ourselves, a newly decorated chapter room and a great pledge class. And with that flying start the year just naturally went right. We copped fourth place in the sorority swim meet; we had girls in every area of campus life; we held a pizza pie supper for our pledges. And then December 12th brought Founders ' Day. The banquet was a gala success with sisters from all over the state coming to say Happy Birthday! Betas celebrated Christmas with a traditional tree and a delicious turkey dinner served by our Mother ' s Club. The next major event was our spring formal. It was held at the Capital House on April 2, with the Redtops supplying our music. It was nothing less than sensa- tional! Soon after that the last intramural softball game was played, the last meeting was held, and finals began. The year ended. Happy Birthday, dear Alpha Rho, Happy Birthday to you.

And with that, the Tawny Grey Owl winked his eye and showed me the Chi Omegas of 1959. Their pride and joy, he reported, are 45 outstanding pledges. Together with the active members they have made a worthwhile contribution to LSU ' s 100th year of progress in its scholastic, athletic, governmental, and social life. Dorm presidents, college presidents, AWS officers, GUMBO favorites, fraternity sweethearts, and Who ' s Who are positions which show you that Chi Omegas haven ' t idled. Mary Mills Hawkins, Miss Louisiana, makes Phi Gammas extremely proud that she is one of their very own, added the owl with a nod. This year Chi Omega service projects have included UNICEF, Pump for Polio, Christmas and Easter parties for orphans. Among the other activities were a get- acquainted party with LSLFs foreign students, the annual faculty cocoa party, Par- ents ' Day, senior banquet, and the social highlight of the year, the Spring Formal. After the Tawny Grey Guide told me these things, he knowingly winked again and said Chi Omega the symbol of sisterhood, It is much more than just a club. It ' s something undefinable, intangible, Chi Omega bound by love. MSB! DELTA OMEGA CHAPTER 218 AAA Lady Pal Patterson, Presi- cent; Marv Merle Pugh, Vice President; Kathleen E. Walker. Secretary; M.

Preceding rush, the mates attended a rush workshop at Silliman College, Clinton, La. In November, Delta Gamma was honored with a visit from the Fraternity ' s Na- tional Council. At the L.S.U. Honors Day Convocation, D.G. ' s received the cup for outstanding scholarship. At the Delta Gamma Province Conference, Delta Gammas of L.S.U. came home with the trophy for excellent scholarship. Delta Gamma is proud to claim members of the crew as a cheerleader, as Out- standing freshman Woman, as a fraternity sweetheart, as an S.G.A. secretary, as members of Alpha Lambda Delta, Freshmen Advisors, Mu Sigma Rho, Mortar Board, Who ' s Who, and Morale Commission, as R.O.T.C. sponsors, as members of Angel Flight, as associate editor of the GUMBO, as news editor of the Reveille, and as class officers. A highlight of the 1959-60 voyage was the crowning of a Delta Gamma homecom- ing queen. Delta Gamma was also represented by the 1959 Pan American Fiestat Queen, and in the GUMBO beauty court of 1960. At Christmas the D.G. ' s gave a party for the Brownie and Girl Scout troops at the School for the Blind. In the spring were held our annual Captive Breakfast, our Founders ' Day Banquet, and our memorable formal which was held at Holiday Inn. With a houseparty on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, the girls who wear the golden anchor closed a very successful year. SIGMA CHAPTER 222 Keen, President: Nancy Ligon. Vice-Presi- dent: Mary Wooldridge.

Then both active and pledge chapters settled down for a year of scholastic and social honors, a year of sisterhood and friendship. Homecoming decorations evidenced much ingenuity with the successful Tigers sharing a place with the Centennial celebration theme. Pledge Orientation was high- lighted by the beat re-writing of Shakespear ' s Hamlet. The active and pledge chap- ters were honored by the active Mothers ' Qub at the Fall Party and at a Christmas Celebration. On the more serious side were the charity projects of the Sigma girls. Spring saw an elegant Greek Ball, honoring die pledges and die Delta Zeta Man of the Year. Delta Zetas were active in scholastic honoraries such as Alpha Lambda Delta, Mor- tar Board, Phi Kappa Phi, and members were named to Who ' s Who. Among Sigma girls were ROTC sponsors, GUMBO beauties, die GUMBO editor and GUMBO staff members. The social activities of die chapter were topped by a gay week-end at Gulf Hills Dude Ranch in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. EPSILON CHAPTER i 224 Carol Rufty. President: Kathlyn Thames.

In April, after much practice and preparation, the KD ' s won first place in the sorority division in the annual songfest. Then to the delight of all members and pledges, we were awarded the Sweepstakes Trophy. Continuing our winning streak the KD ' s took first place again, this time in the Sigma Chi Pirogue Derby. We entered all the events, from the cow milking contest to the Miss Venus contest. Then in the fall, 45 wonderful new pledges were added to die chapter and another school year began. In October was Founders ' Day and homecoming decorating. The Christmas party with the SAE ' s for die orphans was held in December, and then in February, our lovely White Rose Formal. Again widi the SAE ' s and for the orphans we held an Easter egg hunt. To conclude our busy year we all dressed in our very best and went to our Garden Party. There all die girls who had won recognition for dieir activities and leadership, bodi in die sorority and on campus, were honored again. Then it was off to Gulf Hills for a wonderful weekend of fun and relaxation before leaving for the summer. Through our past year as in all the years to come, Kappa Delts strive for that which is honorable, beautiful and highest.

The group participated in the Founders Day Banquet, donned masks for the surprise Halloween Party given by the pledges, and saw the excitement of the Orphans at our Christmas party. After hours of work and play, our Home- coming decoration Who wouldn ' t be afraid of a spirit an hundred years old was a winner. The spring schedule of parties included a Big-Little Sister Banquet, an Easter party, and the Kappa Formal. The spring was climaxed by the proudest moment of a pledge ' s life initiation. This fall a first was made for Kappa when our Grand National President, Mrs. Joseph Campbell, came to the L.S.U. campus. She was entertained at a tea given in her honor. Kappas participated in every phase of the school life GUMBO favorites, several R.O.T.C. sponsors, a member of Freshman Day court, and the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi. Many Kappas distinguished themselves as leaders on the campus freshman advisors, president of the College of Education, Class president, members of Alpha Lambda Delta, officers in W.R.A., members in various college honorary fraternities, GUMBO Junior Editor, Vice-president of Junior Division, and a co-chairman for Religious Emphasis Week. The work we did, the fun we had may all be summed up by ... Kappa Kappa Gamma, nobody knows how happy I am!

Spirit was high after our chapter received three awards at the District Convention held during the summer in Austin, Texas. We received the Fraternity Education, Scrapbook, and Achievement awards. Fall house party held in October began our year of events. The Phi Mus donned masks and costumes to give a Halloween party in honor of the pledges. This was followed by the annual Bermuda Shorts party. With fall, came football season, and to complete the Homecoming celebrations was a second place trophy for decorations. The Phi Mus were once more the hostess of the annual Kiwanis Club Pancake Day, a charity drive. For Thanksgiving and Christmas, the chapter sent baskets to our adopted needy family. We joined with two fraternities in giving a Christmas parry and an Easter Egg Hunt for Protestant and Catholic orphanages. Phi Mus are to be seen in every phase of campus life; college class officers, dormi- tory and AWS officers, Angel Flight, Mortar Board, and Who ' s Who. Other mem- bers are to be found among the GUMBO favorites, fraternity sweetheart courts, hono- aries, as freshman advisors, ROTC sponsors, and on publication staffs. Spring began with the Founders ' Day Banquet, which was soon followed by initia- tion. One of the biggest events of the year was our annual Pink Castle Ball, at which the pledges were presented. September through June were busy, happy months for the Phi Mus and to bring the year to a close was our house parry at Gulf Hills Dude Ranch. LOUISIANA BETA CHAPTER 230 Katherlne Conger.

With arrows and spirits pointing high we met the exciting challenge of rush, and now, with the addition of a grand pledge class, we are eagerly anticipating the months ahead of us. On homecoming day, in honor of our number one football team and the centennial, we displayed a very superior tiger leaning on an hour glass with caption, ' ' We ' ve been sifting them through for a hundred years! Then on with the plans which included a big and little sister party, Christmas festivities, our annual spring formal and house party. Also, no doubt you have seen numerous Phi Phis vying for political offices and social honors. In addition, we are all proud of our first place trophy for the Jambalaya Jamboree, and also our placement in the song fest and swimming meet. Pi Phis participated in all phases of university life. Among our members is the President of West Hall, SGA Co-Ed Vice-President, President of Lambda, President of AWS, Mortar Board members, Little Colonel, and two Cheerleaders. With much accomplished and more ahead, we are looking forward to the comple- tion of a memorable year in Pi Beta Phi.

On April 17th four transfer Zetas had their dream come true when L.S.U. gave permission for a Zeta colony. December 5th was the date that Delta Kappa officially became a chartered chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha. Between these memorable dates Zeta grew from the four original members to a sisterhood of thirty-three. No greater reward could have been given to the enthusiastic, hard-working Founders. The Zeta ' s first year on the L.S.U. campus was a rewarding experience. The Cen- tennial year found Zeta ' s participating in many campus activities as well as getting the new chapter started. WRA, Homecoming, service projects, Song-fest, Spring Formal, and Panhellenic Workshop were some of the activities Zeta took part in. Zeta was proud to have freshman and transfer advisors, freshman GUMBO staff mem- bers, members and an officer in Alpha Lambda Delta, a Tigerette, a member on die L.S.U. Debate team, and participants in L.S.U. Drama productions. It was a wonderful Centennial year for L.S.U. and Founding year for Zeta Tau Alpha. Alpha Epsilon Phi ALPHA THETA CHAPTER Alpha Epsilon Phi started the year with House Party, and a happy rush season. Newly initiated members and a fabulous pledge class looked forward to the coming year with high hopes and mighty ambitions. It has been a year of fun, highlighting our spring formal pledge-active parties, and our Founder ' s Day Tea. And a year of work with charity organizations such as our stocking cam- paign to make dolls, in coordination with the Red Cross. Alpha Theta girls have copped many honors this year, among them the 1958-59 winner of the Freshman Talent Show, Fresh- man Advisor, members of Alpha Lambda Delta, dormitory council members, and the Vice-President of Lambda Intersoror- ity. School spirit, sisterhood, memories of fun achievement, and scholastic honors have made the Alpha Epsilon Phi ' s proud of their twenty-second year on the L.S.U. campus.

The purpose of the organization is to encourage higher education among married women and to develop friendly relationships and closer contacts among this group of students. Phi Lambda Pi emphasizes scholastic achievement. Member- ship is based on definite scholastic requirements, ability and character, and is invitational. Phi Lambda Pi has several social activities yearly for all mar- ried women on campus, as well as its own social and cultural gatherings. Highlights of the year are the Founders Day ban- quet and an elaborate tea honoring the graduated in June. Many Phi Lambdas are in Phi Kappa Phi and other honor fraternities, as well as other places of leadership in professional and religious groups in the community.

Throughout the year beneficial and interesting projects contribute to the chief goal of fun and friendship. Membership is composed of five girls from each sorority chosen on the basis of character, congeniality, and leadership. Each spring, when pledging takes place, the new candidates may be seen about the campus sporting the sign of their pledgeship, the red devil ' s cap with the Greek letters of the intersorority on the front. After a week of initiation fun, the new initiates are allowed to wear the gold devil ' s head pin. The climax of the year ' s activities comes in the spring with the annual softball game played against their arch-rivals, Lambda.

Five girls are chosen from each sorority on a selective basis according to their leadership qualifications and their contributions to their sorority. Lambda provides the opportunity for sorority girls to expand their friendship beyond their particular sorority group and es- tablishes good relations among sorority women. In the fall they sponsor a program of orientation for the transfer student, and later honor them with a coke party. An award is presented in the spring to the outstanding transfer girl. Lambda also helps a needy family in the Baton Rouge area at Christmas time. To end the year Lambda plays an annual Softball game with Delta Gamma Delta, which is followed by a chicken dinner.

The offices are held by the senior delegates in rotation, in order of the founding dates of their sororities. Cooperating with the university administra- tion through its faculty advisor, Dean Gordon, the Council seeks to maintain high social standards and to further fine in- tellectual accomplishment, as well as sound scholarship. In the field of sorority and intersorority relations, it compiles rules governing rushing, pledging and initiation, and discusses prob- lems arising in sorority and university life. Panhellenic set up Rush Week this year and gave a trophy to the sorority having the highest average for the past year. First Row: Carolyn Asbury, Jane Bcttcs, Barbara Bourgeois.

Membership consists of two representatives from each fraternity. The council is responsible for setting up rules and policies by which the member fraterni- ties are governed. The main duty of the council is the drawing up and enforcing of regulations pertaining to rush week. The council also affords the fraternities a means by which to jointly support such activities as the Campus Chest Drive, Ki- wanis Pancake Day. Religious Emphasis Week, and Greek Week. Being a member of the National Interfraternity Conference and the southeastern Interfraternity Conference and having the vice-presidency of the latter, the council is in a position to work closely with other councils in the area.

The Louisi- ana State University Chapter of Acacia was established on this campus on February 1 1, 1956. Since our beginning here, Acacia has grown rapidly and expanded steadily in aspect of fraternity life. We started our greates year, 1959-60 with rush week. We proudly pledged 41 of the best boys going through rush. Things have been going great for Acacia since then. Our intramural program began with a bang as we won first place in football and both the singles and doubles championship in handball going undefeated. Home- coming was quite a big success for Acacia as we won first place in the fraternity competition of decorations and second place in the Sweepstakes competition. Also, our nominee for Homecoming Queen was elected. As social life is a very real part of college life, Acacia makes sure that its social activities are successful. Our parties began with the after die game ones. Then an informal dance and barbeque followed. The annual parties which follow during the year are the Christmas Party, Nite on the Nile, Black and Gold Formal, and Founder ' s Day Banquet. Acacia ' s well-planned and varied social calendar has provided the chapter widi many pleasant interludes throughout the college year. With our marvelous start and the quantity and quality of men, we are going to make this year and years to come really great onces for Acacia on die L.S.U. campus.

Even though we lost our original house by fire with the aid of cooperative alumni and our housemother we were able to keep going and to build the beautiful house we now occupy. Throughout the year, the Tau ' s showed spirit and enthusiasm participating in many campus activities. The Taus took an active part in student government and proceeded from there to other activities. Alpha Tau Omega was well represented in ROTC, and other military organizations as well as many honorary, professional and religious groups. After a successful rush season, we embarked on a whirl of social activities which included the Christmas party, the after the game parties, and the Spring Formal. As usual we rounded out the year with the Bayou Brawl, the last but biggest party of the year. At this party, the house is decorated in a bayou atmosphere with Spanish moss and the dress is back country style. The Taus will always remember 1959-60 as a memorable year in our fraternity lives. The only thing left to do now is look forward to an even greater year in 1960-61. ZETA ZETA CHAPTER 244 ARE of Delta Kappa Epsilon H. G. McDonald, Presi- dent; F. P. Jones, Vice President; M. C.

Delta Kappa Epsilon was founded in 1844 at Yale University; Zeta Zeta chapter was founded fourteen years later at Centenary College in Jackson, Louisiana. The Civil War brought destruction to the school as well as the chapter. It was not until 1923 that the present chapter was revived at L.S.LJ. by the Friars Club. Since that rime, Zeta Zeta has been outstanding in every phase of campus life. The Dekes are known throughout the nation for their ability to have a good time and to give the best parties. The L.S.U. Dekes are no exception. The high spirits which the Number One Tigers have brought to the campus weekend after weekend have been doubled at the DKE house. However, the Dekes don ' t need football vic- tories to have a good time. Give us a free weekend and we ' ll find a reason to celebrate. Thus we have such festivities as the Christmas party with the Kappas, the Bowery Party, the Dogpatch Party, and the Covington Picnic with the Tulane Dekes. Of course, we can ' t forget the annual formal which is a big event. But life at the DKE house is not all one big party. We are active in many other fields. For instance, we have the presidents of the three interfraternity organizations among our members as well as three members of the varsity baseball team. We also stress the importance of scholarship. Proof of this is the number of Dekes who are found in honorary organizations on the campus. We also assist in many philanthropic activities and each year treat the wards of a local orphanage to Christmas and Easter parties. The L.S.U. Dekes will be a powerful force on the campus for many years to come. ALPHA GAMMA CHAPTER --(Pfc ! M 9 B 246 ]. Schwab, President; R. S. CaldwelL, Vice Presi- dent; J. P. Miller, Secre- tary; J. L.

Worden. of Kappa Alpha Order Kappa Alpha Order was founded at Washington and Lee University in 1865. Alpha Gamma chapter at Louisiana State University was granted its charter in 1885. After rush week was over, we were happy to announce that Kappa Alpha had pledged forty-five of the best boys going through rush. On January 19, the birthday of our spiritual founder, Robert E. Lee, we celebrate with a banquet in his honor. At this banquet, the best pledge of the year is presented and he gives a speech on Robert E. Lee. Each year we hold our annual Charity Bowl football game in Tiger Stadium. The proceeds from this activity go to buy toys for the underprivileged children at Christ- mas time. Each spring, the warmth, charm and gay splendor of the Old South is recaptured at our Old South Ball. At the beginning of Old South weekend, we pro- claim succession from the Union and formally raise the Stars and Bars of the Con- federate States of America. This is the beginning of a gala weekend of singing Dixie and enjoying ourselves in the delightful southern manner. As a climax to this exciting weekend the new Kappa Alpha Rose is presented. Many Kappa Alphas are active in student government serving as college officers. We also have members in positions of responsibility in other phases of campus life. Kappa Alpha is looking forward to many more great years on the L.S.U. campus. GAMMA CHAPTER 248 V. R. Bryant. President: G. V. Cagle, Vice-Presi- dent: R. J. Herpin. Secre- tary: M. F. Hill.

The outstanding pledge class of select boys is already beginning to realize its great poten- tial. In having parties, the Kappa Sigs have never been excelled and this year was cer- tainly no exception to this rule. In fact, they seem to get better at it each time. The beautiful buffet suppers before the football games, decorated by Mom Parker, and cooked by the best cooks on Fraternity Row, paved the way for the really rockin ' parties following the games. Other memorable social events this year were the Home coming party, the Kappa Sigma-Chi Omega Christmas party for orphans, the Bour- bon Street party, the Pirate party, the Christmas party and many others. These al! served as mere warm-ups to the Stardust Formal with Ivory Joe Hunter at which time the new Kappa Sigma Dream Girl is presented. Kappa Sig as usual played an active part in many phases of college life with par- ticipation in sports, student government and many other organizations. The highest ideals of honor, scholarship, and brotherhood are in evidence every- where as Kappa Sigmas work together for more rewarding associations. The brothers, in the highest traditions of Kappa Sigma, continue to bring honor and glory to the University of which we are a part and to the name of our beloved fraternity.

The Lambda Chis proved their versatility by winning the Athletic Sweepstakes trophy and the Inter-Fraternity songfest. In addition, our Crescent Girl, Mary Ann Adcock, was crowned Queen of the water show and swim meet. The fraternity is well represented in various campus activities and positions of responsibility and leadership this year. Bob McCall is vice-president of the Student Government Association, Alan Eris is the president of the Latin American Council and Ralph Newman is division commander of the Army ROTC. Following the most successful rush week in several years, we embarked happily on the new year. The fall semester provided many entertaining social events. The ones that will be remembered are the after the game parties, the Rush Girl Party, and the two Christmas Parties. During the spring, the Jungle Party and the Beatnik Party are on the social calendar. Rounding out the year, we have the Founder ' s Day Banquet and the Easter Egg Hunt held for the benefit of deaf children. The climactic event of the year is always the Spring Formal where the new Crescent Girl for 1960- 61 will be presented. We realize that this eventful year will be fondly remembered and hate to see it end. Yet, at the same time, we are looking forward to next year which promises to be even bigger and better for Lambda Chi. LOUISIANA BETA CHAPTER 252 OA0 W. R. McQueen, Presi- dent; V. L.

A highly successful rush week brought a rousing pledge class and actives and pledges have worked together with great enthusiasm all year. Many Phi Delts were seen in positions of honor and leadership on the campus this year. They were seen in all phases of student life including student government, mili- tary, religious and professional organizations. Phi Delta Theta as a group also proved itself equal to any of the other fraternities proving the old axiom that a group is only as good as its members. Because of this the Phi Delts have no problems. The social calendar was filled with many delightful events during the year and life was never dull for a Phi Delt. Some of the enjoyable events were the after the game parties, the Rush Girl party, the Christmas party, the Good Ship Phi parry, and the annual Spring Formal. The Phi Delts have enjoyed a very successful year and expect even more success and expansion in the future years. Phi Delta Theta certainly has a bright future here at L.S.U.

During the past years since we have been on the L.S.LJ. campus, the Fijis have been seen in the fields of student government, scholarship, and in honorary, religious, and military organizations. The chapter is the proud possessor of the Owen Cup, a trophy received from na- tional headquarters for achievement in competition with other chapters. After a very successful rush season, the Fijis entered into the year with our usual great spirit. Many successful social events were held during the year. Some of these were: the Fiji Island Ball, the White Owl Formal, and the annual Pig Dinner which is a tra- ditional Fiji dinner honoring alumni. The Fijis were, of course, active in all phases of campus life this year. We partici- pated in athletics, and many other inter-fraternity and all-campus competitions. This year the fraternity also participated in helping to promote our national head- quarter ' s plan for rededication in service to the University and other goals. It has been a good year for Beta Rho chapter and we are looking forward to an even greater one next year. XI CHAPTE1 256 of Phi Kappa Theta J. C. Arceneaux, Presi- dent; F. J.

This change in name was the result of the amalgama- tion of two national fraternities; the union of Phi Kappa and Theta Kappa Phi produced a new national fraternity, Phi Kappa Theta. This new group claims Brown University as its founding place and 1889 as its founding date. The Phi Kapp ' s are quite proud of their achievements this year. The chapter won a 7-0 victory over Kappa Alpha in the annual Charity Bowl, it won the Purple Bracket Football Championship, and it tied for first place in the basketball competition in the same bracket. Socially speaking the Phi Kapp ' s have had a Dogpatch Party, a South Sea Island Party, a Christmas Party, an Awards Banquet and a Sweetheart Formal. In March of this year the Chapter honored Mrs. Frances Gallagher with a tea and open house. This tea was in recognition of Mother Gallagher ' s 20 years of loyal service to Xi Chapter.

The vitality and spirit of a growing organization make the Pikes stand out in any endeavor they undertake. Even our pledge class, composed of many fine young men, rapidly learned the en- thusiasm and brotherhood of the men of Pi Kappa Alpha. Pikes took part in almost every campus and interfratemity activity. Pikes shone in student government, ROTC, and athletics to mention just a few. Pikes worked to- gether and won together. The social life is never neglected at the Pike house. This year was seemingly cli- maxed time after rime by uniquely successful social events. The after the game parries started the year off right and it has been rolling on ever since. Two of the outstanding parties of the year were the Roman Orgy and the annual Pike Ball. These will not soon be forgotten on the L.S.U. campus. As you can easily see, this was an outstanding year for Pike. We have worked hard and brought honors to our fraternity and our school. We are now looking forward to an even bigger and better year in the falL LOUISIANA EPSILON CHAPTER 2AE F. W. Gagliano, Presi- dent; H. R. Buckley, Vice President; J. W. Greene, Secretary; M. E.

Eleven years later, in 1867, the Louisiana Epsilon chapter was estab- lished at L.S.U. This year the SAE ' s started off excellently with a pledge class of forty-six fine young men. The year has certainly lived up to expectations. In extra-curricular activities, Sigma Alpha Epsilon brothers were seen in many honor organizations such as Omicron Delta Kappa, Phi Eta Sigma, and Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities. Other loyal Sig Alphs were serving the uni- versity and its students as President of the Student Body, Moderator of the Honor Council, Pershing Rifle Drill Team Commander, cheerleaders, and participants in such varsity athletics as football, track, tennis, and golf. In athletic competition we constantly remained near the top. The Sig Alphs showed up strong in the major sports particularly in track and Softball. SAE also remained, as usual, at the top of the social calendar with parties before and after the football games, the Christmas party, Orphan parties for charity, the Corral party, the Stork Club party, the Founders Day Program in New Orleans with our Tulane chapter, the Red Head party, the Patty Murphy party and the fabulous Beachcomber ' s Ball which climaxed the year. A glorious history and pride in past accomplishments explain why SAE ' s work together and win together. We can really look back on our past with pride and look forward to our future with enthusiasm.

We had a very successful rush and were able to pledge fifty-six of the top young men in the university. The fraternity did well in intramurals, participating in all phases of the program. Many actives and pledges also took part in athletics such as football, track, tennis and handball. One of the favorite activities of the year was the annual pledge-active football game. There is never a dull moment around the house of the southern woods. Some social events on our calendar are the annual Milk and Doughnut Party, the Beatnik Party, the Pirogue Derby and Sorority Field Day. One of the main events of the year is the Sweetheart Formal where the new sweetheart is presented. The fraternity has also introduced the Playboy Party to the campus, with pajamas as its costume. Needless to say, this party has proved a great success. Since scholarship is one of the main objectives of Sigma Chi, much emphasis has been placed on it. This year Sigma Chi again won the trophy for having the highest grade average among the large fraternities. Many Sigs have been accepted in honorary scholastic fraternities. Sigma Chis are also leaders in campus politics, many being class presidents. Many provide leadership in the military program. We of Sigma Chi hope to continue our leadership in bringing honor to the name of our fraternity and our university. PHI CHAPTER 264 N. L. Davidson, Presi- dent; R. L. Suhrbier, Vice President; S. M.

White. of Sigma Nu Sigma Nu got off to a tremendous start this year by planning and carrying through an outstanding rush program which gained us a large group of fine young men as pledges. Not content to rest after this success, the Snakes pushed onward in achieve- ments. The Snakes were very prominent, as usual, in campus activities. Several mem- bers were officers in advanced ROTC, Sigma Delta Chi, AIME, Pershing Rifles, Delta Sigma Pi and AIEE. Others were members of many honorary and religious groups on the campus. The Snake social season was not one easy to forget. We had many outstanding social events throughout the year. One of the year ' s best parties was the Taxi Dance. The dance is Sigma Nu ' s annual masquerade party and members dress themselves as waterfront characters and dance to exotic French music. Other big events of the year were the after the game parties, the Christmas party and our beautiful White Rose Formal. Interfraternity athletics allowed us to show our skills and athletic talents in foot- ball, basketball, softball, swimming and many other sports. A good time was had by all as the Sigma Nus worked, studied, and played their way through the 1959-60 school year. It was a year that the Snakes can look back on with pride. At Delta Sigma Phi BETA ETA CHAPTER Delta Sigma Phi was founded at the College of the City, New York, on December 10, 1899. Beta Eta received its charter at LSU in 1930. The last year has been one of the most pros- perous for Delta Sig. Many high honors have been received in the past semester in athletics and scholarship. Numerous activi- ties filled our social calendar for the past year, a few of which have been the Sailors Ball, our Carnation Ball, and the Found- er ' s Day Banquet. A Dream Girl of Delta Sig is elected in the spring to reign at the ball. Beta Eta has members in many honorary, professional, and social organizations on campus. As predicted, Delta Sig has improved on last year ' s fine record with an increased member- ship close brotherhood, and record high spirit. First Row: J. L. Henry, President; J. V.

We concluded the fall semester with a grand Christmas party. In the spring semester an all out effort was put forth to make the annual Orchid Ball a huge success. Some people say it ' s the Alumni that actually keeps the chap- ter going and this is very much true about Alpha Kappa. We would like to thank Mr. and Mrs. Normand Edwards, Mr. and Mrs. Greely, and Mr. and Mrs. Hoque, for their fine work and cooperation this year.

Our social calendar included informal parties after the foot- ball games, a Christmas party, and the Red Carnation Ball in the Spring, at which time our sweetheart was chosen. We also helped the Kiwanis Club with their Pancake Day. Last fall the TKE Victory Bell made its debut at the LSU- TCU football game. The bell contributed greatly to school spirit. Our faculty advisor is Dr. Philip West, who has won world- wide recognition as an outstanding analytical chemist. The future looks bright for Beta Phi chapter for a chapter house should be ready for occupancy by next fall. TKE is the biggest national fraternity in terms of chapters, with over 160. First Row: W.

After a most successful Rush Week, the Pi men began another outstanding year. For our charity project, we participated in several functions held for the benefit of local orphanages. Our social year was one of our greatest. The Tahaiti Party was, as always, a tremendous success, and the social calender was climaxed with a fabulous Spring Weekend, highlighted by a banquet and formal. Our accomplishments during the past year have made it a great one, but we Pi men look forward to an even greater fu- ture. First Row: H. Friedman, President; R. A. Lipsey, Vice-President; D. W.

LSU looked like anything but the best team in the coun- try in the first half. Poor timing, missed blocks, and inept tackling highlighted the Tigers ' play, while Rice just coasted along. Gordon Speer and Roland Jackson had a 48 yard punting average in the first half, and Speer booted a spec- tacular 46-yard field goal to give Rice a 3-0 halftime lead. The Tigers began to click at the start of the third quarter when they marched 67 yards in nine plays to score. All- American Billy Cannon circled the end on a 17-yard option play for the touchdown. Wendell Harris added the extra point, along with a 33-yard field goal at the start of the fourth period. Merle Schexnaildre intercepted an Owl pass, and four plays later Tommy Neck scored from the three. With 40 seconds remaining Rabb passed 32 yards to Schexnaildre for the final touchdown.

Louisiana State, the nation ' s top football team, played heads-up ball to beat the massive Horned Frogs of Texas Christian University 10-0 to win their 14th consec- utive football game. The na- tion ' s longest winning streak shifted from Auburn to LSU, as Auburn was beaten while the Tigers used key defensive plays to halt TCU. A capacity crowd gasped as Warren Rabb fumbled the opening kickoff, and Jack Spikes, TCU ' s great fullback, recovered on the Tigers ' 37. The Frogs moved to the 12, but Mangham, one of the Tiger defensive stars, dropped Dawson for a 20-yard loss to halt the threat. With a fourth down situation presenting itself, Wendell Harris booted a 29-yard field goal to give the Bengals a 3-0 lead in the second period. Rabb fired a 45-yard touchdown pass to halfback Johnny Robinson with 4:24 left in the first half to climax the scoring. TCU marched back to the LSU six. Two plays carried the ball inside the one-yard line, but the Frogs failed to score. Late in the final period Cannon intercepted a pass on the 15 and raced 77 yards to the TCU seven to halt an- other threat. Putting the Tigers ahead 3-0 is Wendell Harris ' field goal in the second period. II M- L. S. U. 6 16 22 BAYLOR YARDSTICK Baylor First Downs 8 LSU 16 228 79 7 2 1 83 36 Rushing Yardage..

It was the third victory in as many weeks for the Tigers over Southwest Conference foes, and extended Baylor ' s record of never crossing LSU ' s goal line. Billy Cannon was the Tigers ' big gun, as he gained 74 yards in 8 carries. Early in the first period he raced 35 yards to the Bear 25, and two plays later Donnie Daye caught an 8-yard pass from Rabb for LSU ' s first score. Before he sat out almost the entire second half, Cannon raced 50 yards with an intercepted pass for another touchdown. Wendell Harris kicked a 26-yard field goal after his con- version followed the Bengal ' s second tally. Mel Branch re- covered two Baylor fumbles, one of which led to the Tigers ' final score. Six plays after the fumble recovery Durel Ma- therne hit Don Norwood with a 5-yard pass to climax the 37-yard drive. Branch and Fugler were the defensive standouts for the Bengals, as each of them broke up numerous passing and running attempts. Ronnie Stanley and Ronnie Bull were Baylor ' s standouts offensively. Touchdown-bound Billy Cannon (20) follows Manson Nelson (62) to run back an intercepted pass for 50 yards and a touchdown. Wendell Harris (30) follows Monk Guillot (68) and Billy Bootli (64) for a short gain. Bandit halfback Hart Bourque (32) twists his way through the Bear line.

Big Billy Cannon was again the Tigers ' mainstay, as he ran over would-be tacklers, racked up 90 yards rushing, scored once, and caught a 34-yard pass to set up another touchdown. He ran over four Miami defenders to score from the Hurricane four after the Tigers had driven from their own 44. Then Al Dangel booted a 30-yard field goal after a fumble recovery to make the score 7-3. Five plays after Duane Leopard recovered a Miami fum- ble on the 27, Johnny Robinson skirted left end for 1? yards and a touchdown. Mel Branch knocked the ball from McClain ' s hands, and Winston recovered on Miami ' s 18. Don Norwood hauled in Durel Matherne ' s 12-yard pass four plays later, and LSU led 12-3. Rabb later smashed over from the 8 to climax a 39-yard drive. Strange, Fournet, Winston, Kinchen, and Langan led LSLTs defense. Markans, Novak, Crawford, and Rein- hardt stood out for Miami. No team has scored a touch down against the Tigers in six straight games. Purring the ball into play is Miami ' s All-American Fran Curci (15).

The Wildcats had pre- pared themselves well for the Tigers ' offense, and a good defense was the only thing that saved the Tigers. Johnny Robinson was the Tigers ' leading ball carrier with 47 yards gained in 14 attempts, while Billy Cannon was held to only 1,1 yards rushing. The first scoring took place in the second period with the Bandits, who limited Kentucky to only 12 yards in 24 plays, facing a fourth down situation. Gus Kinchen punted out of bounds on the Wildcat one. Kentucky tried to punt out of the hole, but the boot was partially blocked. Darryl Jen- kins grabbed the ball on the 15 and ran back to the ten. The White team entered the game, and on third down Warren Rabb shot a six yard touchdown pass to Robinson. In the last period the Bandits put the game on ice for the Bengals. Andy Bourgeois intercepted a pass on the Ken- tucky 45 and ran it back to the 21. The Go team failed to gain, and on fourth down Wendell Harris booted a 39-yard field goal. Trapped by Gus Kinchen (81) and Tommy Lore (61) is Wildcat back Bill Ransdell (28). Slipping away from one tackier is Darryl Jenkins, who is about to be caught by Bob Hunt (70).

Louisiana State inarched to its 18th consecutive victory with a 9-0 triumph over a hard-fighting Florida Gator team to win their second con- secutive conference game. No team has crossed LSLTs goal in the last eight games. Bobby Green, the Gator ' s great punter, averaged 57.6 yards per punt, but the only one he was unable to get away helped the Tigers to their initial score. Mangham, Strange, and McCreedy smeared him on the Florida 47, and nine plays later Billy Cannon climbed over from the two to score. The Tigers again found the range when Gus Kinchen intercepted a pass and returned it to the Gator 45. The Go team marched to the ten. On fourth down Wendell Harris kicked his fifth field goal of the season, a 27-yarder, which hit the goal post before going over. The Gators weren ' t through, however. Dickie Allen took to the air to move them downfield twice in the final period to the Tigers ' 10, but the defense of the Bandits and White team was too much for them. Donnie Daye played his best game of offensive football, as he churned through the middle of the line and caught two passes. Being stopped by a host of Gator tacklers is Donnie Daye (44). Riding high, but being stopped short of the goal is Billy Cannon (20). L. S.

TIGERS TURN BACK LSU handed Ole Miss five scoring chances in the first half. The Tigers contained the Rebels in every drive except one, when Bob Khayat kicked a 23-yard field goal. Ole Miss had the tables turned in the third period when LSU moved the ball repeatedly well, but they lacked the necessary scoring punch. At the start of the fourth quarter the Rebels ' field goal began looming larger and larger. However, that was before Jack Gibbs, a tremendous Rebel quarterback, was forced to punt from his own 42. Cannon hauled in the ball on his 1 1-yard line, smashed right through five tacklers, slipped off the last man and sped Top prize in the decorating contest was taken by Acacia Frater- nity. Cannon rests after his great run. The Chinese Bandits replace the White Team. REBELS 7-3 IN HOMECOMING BATTLE down the sidelines for an 89-yard touchdown run. Wendell Harris booted the extra point with exactly ten minutes re- maining in the game. The Tigers had to put up a spectacular goalline stand, though, to gain the victory. The Rebels marched from their own 32 to the Tiger seven, where they made a first down. Three plays carried the ball to the two, and on fourth down Cannon and Rabb stopped Elmore inside the one to halt the threat. Eighteen seconds remained when LSU took over. Cheering fans mobbed the team as it left the field after Rabb ran out the clock. Larry Grantham barely misses a pass.

Tennessee, breaking LSU ' s 19 game winning streak, be- came the first team to cross the Bengals ' goal in ten games. Tennessee, trailing 7-0 after Billy Cannon ' s 27-yard scor- ing jaunt in the second period, suddenly got into the thick of battle. Jim Cartwright intercepted a pass in the flat and raced 65 yards untouched to even the score. Two minutes later Earl Gros had the ball wrestled away on LSU ' s 29 to set up the fatal touchdown. On third down Don Leak caught a 19-yard pass to put the ball on LSU ' s 14. Neyle Sollee ran for the touchdown on the next play. LSU had another chance, though. Billy Majors fum- bled Cannon ' s punt, and Ed McCreedy recovered on the Vols ' two. Two plays later Durel Matherne scored. Officials ruled Cannon was stopped an inch short of the goal while trying for two points. Several decisions by the officials were questionable, and two open infractions apparently went unheeded. Johnny Robinson, who gained 115 yards during the contest, skirts left end behind Emile Fournet (65). Fpurnet (65) again leads the play, as Warren Rabb (12) reverses his field. Gaining eight yards through the middle is Billy Cannon (20), who gained 122 yards against the Vols. Mickey Mangham (86) and Scotty AlcClain (83) are identifiable Tigers.

Louisiana State displayed a brilliant team effort to crush Mississippi State ' s Maroons 27-0 before 65,000 freezing fans. The Tigers clearly domin- ated play from the opening gun. Gus Kinchen recovered a fumble on State ' s 13 in the first period. On fourth down Darryl Jenkins passed six yards to Hart Bourque to open the scoring, and Tommy Neck kicked the extra point. In the second quarter Donnie Daye intercepted a State pass on LSLFs 41. Billy Cannon caught a screen pass and raced 34 yards to the Maroons ' four to set up the touchdown.

In the fourth period the Go Team drove 80 yards for a score, with Earl Gros, who gained 56 yards, leading the way. Don Purvis scored from the 14 and added the extra point. Driving 83 yards for their final score, LSU counted as Robinson caught at 21 -yard pass from Madierne. Cannon had a 52.5 punting average for the Tigers, who were outweighed as usual in the line, and Robinson caught four passes for 50 yards.

The Tigers displayed little spirit and enthusiasm as they managed to generate just enough steam to gain the victory. After a scoreless first half, LSU drove 76 yards for its first touchdown in the third period. Billy Cannon, who set a new Louisiana State rushing record by pushing his career total to 1867 yards, dashed 45 yards to score. Wendell Harris, an All-SEC Sophomore Team member, kicked the extra point. Later in the period the Go Team tallied the second touchdown. Starting from their own 37 yard line, the Tigers used eight plays to score. Earl Gros, All-SEC Sophomore fullback, ground through the middle of the Greenies to hit paydirt on a 22-yard scor- ing burst. Tulane also scored in the third period. Cannon punted to the Green Wave 41, and Tom Mason scooted down the sidelines 59 yards for the visitors ' lone score. Being stopped by the White Team line is Tom Mason (20) .

Another sell-out crowd witnessed the hard-fought contest, as Tulane outplayed the Tigers. The Tigers, fighting to regain their number one national ranking, just didn ' t seem to be able to get under way. By winning the game, however, the Tigers gained an invitation to return to the Sugar Bowl on New Year ' s Day. They beat Clemson there last year, and they will be matched with Ole Miss, whom they cic feated 7-3 in regular season play. The Rag, symbol of victory, once again remains at LSU.

Khayat booted the last two con- versions. LSU, meanwhile, had trouble against the Rebel line. The Tigers occupied Ole Miss territory only twice during the game and were forced to fight off four Rebel drives deep in their territory in the first half. Warren Rabb (12) calls the signals in the White Team huddle. The Baby Bengals run an end sweep against the Mississippi State Frosh. FRESHMAN FOOTBALL The Baby Bengals swept through an undefeated season by beating three teams they will face in coming years. Quarterback Lynn Amadee brought the Bengals from behind against Ole Miss. He threw a long pass to John Campbell with 56 seconds remaining to give LSU a 1 3-8 victory. The f rosh also roared in the second half against Mississippi State. Tommy Thompson, first unit quarter- back, and Pete Ascani, halfback, led the devastating attack, as LSU tallied 25 points in the last half. The team gained 318 yards rushing and 65 yards passing, and State gained only 111 yards rushing and 107 in the air. Thompson and Ascani each tallied twice, and Danny Neumann scored the final touchdown. The first undefeated freshman season since 1956 closed when Tulane fell, 14-0. Neumann ' s kickoff returns and Ascani ' s power drives wrecked the Baby Billow. The Bengals kept Tulane inside its fifty most of the game but failed to cap- italize on several scoring opportunities.

To live up to die title of cheerleader re- quires work, skill, desire, and guts. An exceptional cheer- leader is set apart from an ordinary one by die radiation of his desire to attain perfection in his work. Without skill, however, a cheerleader is lost. No one can stand before a large crowd of people and expect to act unless he possesses some degree of skill. Occasionally cheerleaders are faced widi difficult problems whedier or not a particular yell will be peppy-enough, clean-enough, or easily-learned by fans. The great leader thinks before he acts and decides what is best for all concerned, even if his decision registers against his personal feelings. The great cheerleader is an inspiration and guiding light to die fans and football team, as well as a credit to his school. Leading one of the many pep rally parades are some of the LSU cheerleaders.

Dick Davies (25) strains as a Texas guard tries to block his shot. Jumping to shoot is Carey Guglielmo (51), while the players shift for position under the basket. A sophomore-studded basketball squad took the court this year for the Bengals. The relatively inexperienced club started the season in great form, winning its first two games. However, some experienced teams caught up with them then. Although the Tigers scrapped all the way, they were unable to gain more than two additional victories at the time of publication. George Nattin, a sophomore stand- out, was injured early in the season, and his absence left the team without any fire for several games. Tom Conklin, 6 ft. 10 in. sophomore, hauled down rebounds, but he couldn ' t find his shooting eye. Veterans Carey Guglielmo, Dick Davies, Tommy Raborn and Phil Raisor led the Ben- gals the rest of the way. Where is the ball going? RAY HINES JOHN HUDSON PHIL RAISOR CAREY GUGLIELMO Tom Conklin (50) watches another field goal attempt. Joe Clune has tallied the most points, 194, but Dick Davies follows closely with 184. George Nattin, with a 13.9 team-leading average, has scored 167 points, and Tom Conklin has 130. dune ' s 27 points against Texas is the individual high, and he also scored 1 1 free throws. Davies ' ten field goals and Hines ' 16 rebounds led individual sta- tistics in those departments. The Tigers ' team high marks include 33 field goals against Florida State, 39 free throw attempts against Tennessee, 29 free throws made against both Texas and Tennessee, and 29 personal fouls against Mississippi State. Clune also leads in rebounds with 131, followed by Conklin ' s 112. Conklin also holds the lead in personal fouls with 72, followed by Hines ' 68. Tapping in the ball is Dick Davies (25). TENNIS Sparked only by veterans Richard Crowell and Howard Dumont, the Tigers ' tennis hopes appear slim in the SEC race. However, the young players may receive enough ex- perience to post a good showing in the conference meet. Two fine newcomers, Leslie Nicholson and Jimmy Wal- thall, head the list of other players. LSU ' s netmen face one of the greatest challenges any team could have, and it will take some scrappy playing to compile a a winning season. s, W. T.

Interfraternity sports drew more participants and specta- tors this year than ever before. Two potential bracket cham- pions have emerged in competition so far. In the Purple Bracket, Phi Kappa Theta ranks as the overall leader, and Acacia leads the Gold Bracket. Phi Kappa Theta took the football crown with a 7-1 record. Sigma Chi came back to win both the singles and doubles in handball, and Lambda Chi copped the basketball crown. They defeated Phi Kappa Theta after two overtimes in the playoff game.

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 the first located 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 LSU the nickname of the Old War Slcule. The Corps is the largest single organization on the campus, 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, and the well-organized intra- mural program. First Row, left to right: C SR Col. James E. Yeldell, Little Colonel Linda Hill.

HALL Sponsor The Association of the United States Army is a national military organization. A company was established on the LSU campus in the year 1956. Promoting an interest in the Army and Army ROTC is the association ' s aim. Membership in the organization is a definite help to the student of Military Science. He benefits by receiving the monthly magazine, Army, which contains valuable information on die military- aspects of our national defense. In addition, military topics are discussed at die mondily meetings of die association. Each year AUSA members accept an average of forty cadets, who have shone by their actions in the classroom, on the drill field, and by dieir character, intelligence, and leader- ship, that they are worthy of membership in the Association.

Pershing, the P R ' s have enjoyed excellent reputation on the LSU campus since their chartering in 1940. Company D-6 here at LSU is one of 13 companies located throughout Mississippi, Louisiana, Flor- ida, and Puerto Rico. The 1959-60 school year has proven to be the most suc- cessful in the history of D-6. Approximately one hundred freshmen cadets were pledged to the unit, making it the largest in the Sixth Regiment and one of the largest in the National Society of Pershing Rifles. The company participated in numerous campus and civic activities such as the Freshman Frolic, the Homecoming game, Centennial celebrations, and Freshman Day celebrations. The company also appeared on television in conjunction with Vet- eran ' s Day activities and marched in many parades such as the Baton Rouge Rodeo parade, the Christmas parade, and the Mardi Gras parades.

U 328 SCABBARD AND BLADE Scabbard and Blade is a national military honor society with local chapters, called companies, located in 1 3 1 leading colleges and universities which have ROTC programs. The organiza- tion was founded to promote military education, to recognize and develop leadership, and to provide a closer relationship among military departm?nts of American universities. The LSU chapter, Company E, Fifth Regiment, was found- ed in 1923 and has always been one of the outstanding chap- ters in the organization. Membership is open to cadet officers who have maintained a 1.5 scholastic average and a 2.0 aver- age in Military or Air Science. During the traditional Dumbjohn Week, new initiates are put to a severe test of physical stamina and emotional con- TO! which culminates in the famous cherry pie ceremony in front of the girls ' dormitories. A banquet and formal dance celebrates the end of the school year. First Row, left to right: Donald S. Bergeron, Robert R. Blanchard, Thomas Jerry Boliew, Francis G. Bourque. Second Row: Louis A.

FERGUSON President The Society of American Military Engineers was founded in 1920 to increase the engineering potential of the United States for national security. It also advances the knowledge of the science of military engineering needed in national defense and in warfare. Since its founding in 1956, the LSU Chapter of SAME has been an active part of the national society. Members of the society are engineering, physics, geology, and chemistry students from the Army and Air Force advanced cadets. Lec- tures by prominent men in the field of engineering and films of engineering importance are part of the program. At a special ceremony held each spring, the society awards a gold medal with a gold replica to one outstanding senior and junior engi- neering student in the Cadet Corps. Special events this year included the Engineering Day ac- tivities and a tour of the Corps of Engineers Experiment Sta- tion in Vicksburg, Mississippi.

All praise to thee, our Alma Mater, moulder of mankind, May greater glory, love unending, be forever thine. Our worth in life will be thy worth, we pray to keep it true, And may thy spirit live in us forever, L.S.U.
