LH I L8 P676 1928 •J 7  f FOREWORD In the old days the winds whispering through the pines caught the war-whoop of the Indian; the song of the pirate; the love and romance of the Spaniard; the debonair nature of the French; the Rosary of the Nun; .... yes, even the familiar songs of the Plantation Mammy. Then came the College .... Today these same Pines are swayed by the joy and song of college students . . . The old order has changed and yielded its place to the new. To acquaint you better with the history of our Cam- pus, and to present the Student Activities of our College . . . this volume of the Potpourri is offered as a rec- ord of Life upon Normal Hill.

Autographs POTPOURRI -:s— The Theme of Our Book THE 1928 Potpourri has for its theme the history of the Campus. The staff in selecting this theme did not stop at the date of the founding of the Louisiana Normal in 1884. They went even farther back than the archives of the old records of St. Denis, founder of Natchitoches. They have traced the history of the Campus from the time the peace-loving Natchitoches Indians hunted the fleet- footed deer and built their wigwams on the ridges of the picturesque Pine Hills, in which the college is nestled. Nor in their tracing have they forgotten the pirate who scoured the shores of the muddy Red in those days before the hand of civilization had rested upon sunny Louisiana. They have traced the French headed by St. Denis, that gallant Frenchman who built a fort here in sight of the college campus in 1714, the first white settlement in the original Louisiana Purchase. The Spanish, too, and their bartering with the Indians have a place in the book along with the French. The pleasant, carefree plantation days are also depicted by the plantation mammy who sings the favorite spirituals of the Old South, as she cheerfully labors for ole Missus and Marster. Then came the days of strife and of war between the states when the old plantation home was sold to the Sacred Heart Nuns who established a convent on the present site of the Campus. Many gray clad wounded soldiers of the Battle of Mansfield were nursed back to health by the nuns at the old convent. As the state prospered after the Civil War, the Convent was purchased by the state in 1 884 and the State Normal School of Louisiana founded. To portray vivid- ly the forty-four years history of the college during which time more than six thousand students have been graduated from the Normal, styles in dress of the last four decades are being used. In order to depict all these stages of history, the staff of the annual has elected the most typical co-eds of the college who will introduce various sections of the book. Co-eds depicting various stages of history on the Louisiana State Normal College Campus are Eva Firestone, Indian Princess; Hazel Cooper, Pirate; Minnie Griffin, French; Alice Johnston and Ellene Cook, Spanish; Lily McKnight, Negro Mammy; Gladys Wasson, Nun; Frances May, Co-ed of 1888; Helen Cain, Co-ed of 1898; Neva Knighton, Coe-ed of 1908; Cecil Singleton, Co-ed of 1918; Mabel Callender, Co-ed of 1928; and Marion Dormon, Snap Shots, Today. ir 1928 POTPOURRT Those Friends of Long Ago By Kearnie Keegan, ' 27 When you re sittin ' in the evenin As the quiet shadows fall, An the birds in the tree tops, Are a-chirpin their soft call.

An it starts its daily journey From East toward the West, There ' s a question you ' d be asking; The answer you ' d like to k n °u) ' Where are ' those dear ole Normal friends, Those friends of long ago? 1928 ADMINISTRATION Grand Ecore LOUISIANA! The land of sunshine and flowers— The land of legends and folklore— The land of love and romance. Dear old Louisiana. How we love her. Just three miles from the home of State Normal there is a spot of such exquisite beauty as to inspire the meekest to become bold; such as to arouse within one all the finer desires of life. This spot is a high bluff which overlooks Red River and is called Grand Ecore. As one stands upon the top of this bluff, he is filled with awe at its beauty— a true masterpiece of the Creator, whose very soul seems to have planned the beauties of the spot. It is to Grand Ecore that the artist takes his canvas and brush— the violinist his violin. There in utter silence, but for the gushing of the water against the banks of the bluff, or the murmur of the pines as the soft wind passes through them, or the song of some bird, calling his mate— there in such a spot the world ' s master- pieces are created. So it is that when the truck, full of Normal girls, winds its way slowly up the curved path— a hush comes over the group. Each girl is reminded of the legend of Grand Ecore and of the Indian Princess whose romance was not a happy one. It is a beautiful though pathetic story— one which always causes a tinge of sadness. It was toward the close of a bright Sunday afternoon during the moon of strawberries; the brightness of the sinking sun vied with that of the luscious fruit. A canoe, steadily advancing, was a growing speck in the distance. Nothing was heard save the rhythmical dipping of the oars and the gentle lap of waves. Don Fernando sat at the bow. He was gazing pensively at the ominous hue of the bloody stream known at this day as th e Red River. The canoe shot quickly around the curve, bringing its occupants in view of the steep, clear-cut bluff rising majestically it 1928 m over the surrounding plains. Sombre pines on either bank loomed up against the crimson sky. As the evening zephyr passed through the tops of the stately branches on the summit of the bluff, it emitted a low, melancholy moan, answered now and then by a bird ' s good-night call as he hurried homeward to his anxious little ones in a dell below. Such was the afternoon when Chief Quigualtauqui and his three hundred Chetimachas warriors returned from a glorious chase in the far region of the friendly Comanches. Don Fernando was moody for awhile. Early on the morrow he was leaving this dreamy, solitary land. He was going to bid Quigualtauqui and the beautiful Princess Ccfachiqui adieu. The shy, graceful manner, the sprightly step, and the large shining eyes of that queen of the wilds had often given him sorrow and joy, for they brought back the image of his own patient Juanita, waiting for him ' neath the sunny skies of Spain. After the evening meal of venison and broiled fish, all sat around the fire and smoked the pipe of peace. The sable goddess threw a pale shadowy light on the orators as each in turn rose to deliver his promise of friendship and faithfulness. When Tchioumaqui ' s turn came, Don Fernando noticed a strange gleam in his eyes. The profuseness of his language and a seeming hollowness of tone could not but arouse the paleface ' s suspicion. The Spaniard rose to leave. The good luck wishes were exchanged around the circle; but Princess Cofachiqui and Tchiou- maqui ' s places were acant. The Don thought little of the absence of the brave, but he longed to see again the sylvan beauty. f P TP V Don Fernando stooped to cut the fibre which held his boat. The snap of a twig broke the stillness. A shadow darted from behind a tree. The nobleman asked a little anxiously, Tachte cabanacet? ( Is it thou? ) As the soft tremuous Manatte (Yes) was breathed, the figure stepped before him. In homage to this dryad of the mournful pines, the Castilian lord kissed Cofachiqui with the respect due his own Empress. As Cofachiqui turned away with a sad, longing heart from the retreating craft lightly drifting with the current, the gleam of fiery eyes, aglow with hatred and jealousy riveted her to the spot. The flash of a conchas lately stained in the chase, filled her with terror. Up the hill she flew, sparks flying from her feet. Slowly but surely Tchioumaqui gained upon his prey. Don Fernando climbed quietly over the stern of Las Flores. Turning, to imprint in his memory one lasting image of that weird, moonbathed land, he stood spellbound. The figure of a woman stood on the top of the bluff, dangerously near the edge. A brave was advancing quickly toward her. The warrior skill- fully brandished his conchas, its smooth surface glistening in the white light. The weapon was poised in the air for a moment, but before it could descend, a shrill, despairing cry rose to the heavens, echoed and re-echoed down the glens. The wcman leaped into the air, fell down, down; struck the water with a heavy splash, and was received into the bosom of the river. As the Las Flores glided down the stream the gentle ecstatic motion of the waves told her that the spirits of the water were holding a revelry over their newly found queen. !

' FACULTY  ag: PO TPOURRI isfstffj A Message To The Normal Student Body From President V. L. Roy THIS is a message of good will and one that, I trust, may prove a source of inspiration to many of our students. But if this message serves merely to extend the vision or kindle the ambition of a few, I shall feel that it has been worthwhile. I would have every student in the Louisiana State Normal College realize that the profession he has chosen is the most important in our great democracy. This is true because the education of the masses of our people is the foundation of our civilization of today and tomorrow. When all American teachers shall be qualified for their work and shall undertake to discharge their duties with the zeal and spirit of the missionary, there will result so united a people in America that every reasonable achievement will be possible. Then will come the true heroic age of our country. But if you, as the on-coming teachers of our state, are to do your duty by Louisiana and the United States, you must have vision as well as ambition; train- ing as well as zeal. The training, we are seeking to give you— but the vision that may lead you to the mountain tops of achievement must come to you through spiri- tual channels, as came the song of the herald angels to the shepherds. If the Louisiana State Normal College is able to continue sending out leaders of consecration and vision as it has in the past, its mission shall continue to be fulfilled, but I am hopeful that the faculty and staff of the institution will be able year by year to set better examples cf teaching, to train you better for your life work, and to inspire you to nobler accomplishments in your chosen field. I base this hope on the fact that this school has been gi en an A-l rank by the American Association of Teachers Colleges, and is a full member in good standing of the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States. These facts alone should lead you to take pride in the Louisiana State Normal College and to inspire you to strive to your utmost to prove worthy of your profession. Superintendent T. H. Harris has said somewhere that the establishment of this school is the greatest one step ever taken in connection with public education in Louisiana. My hope is that the quality of service rendered by the school in the training of teachers, its growth with the years, and the type of leadership that it develops now and in the days to come, will always make it more and more worthy of the confidence that our State Superintendent places in the institution and those that labor for its welfare. 1928 tos:- POTPOURRI fi Message of H. L. Prather, Dean of Men, to the Stu- dent Body of the State Normal College My sincere wish for the students of the Louisiana State Normal Col- lege is that they may find now and after leaving college that true hap- piness which can come only to those who daily have the consciousness of a life devoted to high ideals and noble purposes. The preservation of our com- munities, state, and nation, together with the civilization which has made them possible, is in no small mea- sure, in your hands. And it is the duty and purpose of this college to furnish you, so far as may be pos- sible, with the physical development, mental poise, and moral courage which will enable you to measure up to the high calling you have chosen. This high and well nigh holy duty can be performed with any degree of satisfaction, only in an atmosphere of mutual understanding and sympathy; and to develop this spirit to the highest possible point should be regarded as the solemn obligation of student body, president, faculty, and deans of the college. My message, then, is one of good will. Good will does not necessarily mean identity of views. It, however, is not put in jeopardy by candid, but ever friendly exchange of views, even though differences of opinion may arise. But let us not harbor suspicion and distrust, let us not be too ready to assign wrongful motives, but let us join minds, hearts, and hands, in an honest endeavor to advance our mutual interests. H. L. Prather, Dean of Men 1928 1 k ' Ml Message of Mrs. Ethel Hereford, Dean of Wo- men, to Louisiana State Normal College Student Body My message to you is one of love. Love is the pathway of all righteousness; it is the cornerstone upon which all good is laid. Love is the shining meteor that lights the traveler safely home through the blackness of the night; it is love that scothes the babe as its mother clasps it tenderly to her breast. Love is like a flower garden— with the proper care it may be made a sweet scented joy that permeates the atmosphere in which one daily walks. Without the proper culti- vation of love, one ' s life may be- come as withered as the flower shut off from sunshine and rain. Mrs. Ethel L. Hereford, Dean of Women In my association with you I have attempted to influence your lives with the same love a mother shares with her children. My sincerest hope is that you will carry this same message of love with you as you enter the class rooms of the public schools of the state and that you will instill into the hearts and minds of the youth of Louisiana the love of true citizenship and upright lives. il i 1928 3n fHemoriam Mrs. Eva Browning White Milwaukee, Wis. Died February 20, 1928 The Grim Reaper waits not to be beckoned, but stalks into the sacred circle of family hearths, treads upon hearts, and severs the threads of friendship, or the chords of love. Before him, even the kingly knee must bow, and the Caesars bend at last to his will. He deserves not, however, his title, ' Grim, ' for beneath his cloak of somber hue, lies light and love, — and peace. And the hand which reaches out is not icy nor cold, but glows with warmth and understanding. For this Silent Spirit is but the messenger of God, sent to guide and direct lest human feet, unexperienced in the path of Death, find not the road. Normal students have only recently suffered the loss cf an instructress and friend — one whom, as the days slip by, they will miss, and will revere the memory of. m K H. LEE PRATHER A.B., LL.B.

PERRY Vice-President Margaret Corona Secretary HI 1 1 1928 Freshman Days FOR the first time in the history of the Louisiana State Normal College Fresh- man Days were observed at the beginning of the fall session 1927. The first year students were required to enroll three days before the upper-classmen sc that they might be given instruction pertaining to the rules and regulations of the college. Mere than 300 matriculated on Saturday, Sepetember 1 7. The program of the first day included a series of addresses by President V. L. Roy and other members of the faculty, mental tests, and physical examinations. A reception for the freshmen was held in the Social Room Saturday evening at which all new students were introduced to members of the faculty. On Sunday morning, September 18, the new students attended the churches of their choice in Natchitoches, and Sunday afternoon they were treated with trips to Grand Ecore Bluff on Red River, and other historic points of interest in the sur- rounding country. In commenting upon these trips a freshman said later in the year, By the way, I believe those are the only rides we get during our four years on Normal Hill. ' On Monday, September 1 9, the freshmen were classified by special faculty committees who exercised considerable care in selecting curriculums which were desirable for the students to pursue. Then came the sophomores, juniors, and digni- fied seniors on Tuesday, September 20; but the Freshman Days had worked wonders; for the Freshies were not so fresh and could not be fooled into going to the laundry for lunch or to C dormitory for classes. President Roy in commenting upon Freshman Days at the State Normal last fall said, This is the first year during my administration of fifteen years here that a student has not been sent home on account of homesickness. Faculty and students alike have declared Freshman Days a success, and there is little doubt that Freshman Days will be a part of the program each year from now on. ■M EFFIE ABSHIRE CROWLEY Mathemalics-Science HAZEL MAE ABSHIRE CROWLEY Home-Economics VERNA ADAMS NEW ERA Intermediate LOIS ADDISON NEGREET Intermediate JAMES ALEXANDER NATCHITOCHES English-Social Science LEONA ALEXANDER WELSH Biology-Chemistry NARVIS ALMAND ..

The institution at first was little better than a standard high school of those days, but the movement had been made to train teachers; the torch of higher edu- cational standards had been lighted,— a torch that was to grow brighter every year and that was finally to illuminate every nook and corner of the commonwealth of Louisiana. The first years of the State Normal School were, in a way, uneventful ones. But twenty-seven students attended the school the first year, and only three were graduated. During the first ten years ' history of the school only 1,145 students attended and 167 were graduated. But the sons and daughters of the Normal of Yesterday were loyal; they were the missionaries who carried the message of higher education into the schools of the state. Then, unlike now, there were not the magnificent structures on the campus. There was no Education Building, no Caldwell Hall, no fireproof dormitories, no Infirmary, no Gymnasium. Then, as now, from classroom, literary society hall, religious organization room, auditorium, and campus there came the joyful voices of young men and women bent upon a single purpose— to train themselves as efficient public school teachers. Then the faculty and student body were small, but the same zeal and determi- nation that exists today was evident— that something that has made the Louisiana State Normal College outstanding in the State and Nation. 1928 mmmmFmw — ■ onven ion Lono Aoo vjToverno D lane ham P esident A swell oYy anSlove bo t the men oh old, tneiK sc ns may copy tneiY virtues bold! m ite ary Society . m L ■■mmIi ■- ■ ' %: ' ■ ' ..

TODAY POTPOURRI --«g Normal Today PROGRESSIVENESS has e er been the watchword of the Louisiana State Normal College and it is with much pride its alumni look today at the progress of their Alma Mater. Since Normal has been ranked A-l college in the American Association cf Teachers ' Colleges, it remains for the students ever to uphold the high ideals set forth by the college— Yesterday-— a Normal school —Today—a college cf the highest rank— Tomcrow— -Our Alma Mater will reflect just the things that we as students offer it for reflection. The old order has truly changed and today finds that Normal has many new activities, buildings, and interests. The building program of the college is one to be justly proud of. There are now under construction two buildings, the Warren Easton Building, a training school, and the President s new home. A Girls ' dormitory has just been com- pleted. Sororities and Fraternities, adding the closer bonds of friendship among students always so eviednt in such organizations, have become prominent on the Campus. School spirit, always a dominating factor in college life, has been fostered this year by the Purple Jacket Club and the Freshman Commission. These two organizations are made up of representative young men and women, and it is to them that the Freshies give their thanks for such loyal help during Freshman Days. Journalism in the College has received a great impetus in the installing of Iota Chapter of Alpha Phi Gamma, National Honorary Journalistic Fraternity here. It is the only chapter in the South. The Fountain, and the Columns will remain at Normal to watch the procession of Youth as it enters and leaves the gates of our Alma Mater. In after years it will be these two that will rejoice with students as they sing so proudly . . . Steadfast and true, our watchword e ' er shall be. To Thee, Our Alma Mater, Loyalty. TODAY — Normal stands in all her pomp and glory — a friend and a chal- lenge to youth, higher learning, and finer ideals. 1928 unns Senior Day Det fcDeW dtj S t on DeliJious Leaders on bhe H rVeshmdn Lo mmission Potpou i Best (Musician trileen Omich cMosb G acef ul Lydid Hdddman Best Actress oVVosb Handsome cr lizabeth Laza u cMosj- Stylish -Vd rowle Done cMosb Fof cNgirna CVa Grand nd c ilosc ' n t:e 1 1 i o e n r cMosc Typical ■ ■■■a Dofis Compton cM.ost, Popula ■.;.%:■■. ■■ ■■ ■ ZilphdWi son ete Edri c Viken best lAtlil ete J b.

R. Brown, Mansfield), Miss Sallie Dixon (Mrs. James Hamilton, Dallas, Texas), and Miss Emma Oswalt, Boulder, Colorado. As the sessions passed and the school grew in size and usefulness the number of graduates increased until by the close of the ninth year of its existence the alumni of the State Normal School numbered 1 33. On May 30, 1894, a few of these graduated held a meeting in Natchitoches looking toward the organization of an Alumni Association and appointed a committee to draw up a constitution. At a later meeting in Ruston, July 21, 1894, plans were perfected and the Louisiana State Normal School Alumni Association came into existence. President T. D. Boyd, State Normal School, presided as chairman, and Professor R. L. Himes assisted in the meeting. A constitution was adopted which provided for the usual corps of officers, president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. The first officers elected were: President, Miss Bessie V. Russell; Vice-president, Miss Emma Oswalt; Secretary, Mrs. J. E. Read- himer; Treasurer, Miss Mollie Kearney. In such manner was organized an association which was destined to become a vital factor in the educational growth of the State. Beginning with a membership of about one hundred, today the State Normal College Alumni Association has a membership of over six thousand. According to the charter of the Association, The objects and pur- poses for which this corporation is established are disclosed to be to advance and strengthen the tie of affection and esteem in school days and by or- ganized effort to further the interest and improvement of the Louisiana State Normal School and to found scholarships and other means of encouraging education, and to establish, maintain, and administer loan funds for the assistance of worthy students of the Louisiana State Normal School of Natchitoches, Louisiana, and in all and any ways to further the interests of the students and alumni of the said school. 1928 if POTPOURRI is B The objects and the purposes so expressed have been carried out in large part by the members of the Association. The scholarship established by the Alumni Association June 1 , 1 897, was named the Alby L. Smith Scholarship in memory of Mr. Alby L. Smith, the beloved training teacher of the Normal School under whose direction so many students served their apprenticeship and to whose training is due much of the loftiness of purpose and devotion to the ideal that first won permanent recognition for the Normal graduate as a trained teacher, and made him a power in the public schools of Louisiana. This fund later merged into the Alby L. Smith Loan Fund has made it possible to assist more than five hundred students since its estab- lishment. The Fund now amounts to $15,000.00 from which an average of thiity five students per term receive financial aid. It is only necessary to say in the passing that the alumni of the State Ncrmal College have all had a part in the development of the Louisiana public school system. Many of the most responsible positions in the syster have been filled by alumni of the school; while thousands of them have proved industrious and successful in the class rooms of the public schools and in the communities of Louisiana. h l KM 1928 Potpourri Staff Eva Fowler Editor-in-Chief Mable Callender Assistant Editor Anthony Buttittia Business Manager James Alexander Assistant Business Mgr.

Bfc POTPOURRI -: Normal Press Association THE Normal Press Association was organized at the Louisiana State Normal College during the fall session of 1925 as the Normal Booster Club. The name of the club was changed in 1926 to the Normal Press Association. The purpose of the organization is to disseminate news concerning the activities of the State Normal College throughout the state in the weekly newspapers of Louisiana. The membership of the club totaled seventy-five the first year, and a membership of fifty has been maintained since. The club is representative of nearly every parish in the state, and the members are personally ac- quainted in most cases with the editors or managers of the papers they write for. Meetings are held every Thursday evening, and news notes pertaining to the college are discussed, as well as fundamental points in journalism and news writing. A news writing and special feature contest held by the club during the fall and winter quarters was won by Miss Chlotile Thompson, of Mans- field, correspondent for the Mansfield Enterprise. Miss Ora Garland, of Minden, is president of the club this year with Miss Bessie Fitzgerald, of Alexandria, vice-president, and Miss Erla Easley, of Goldonna, secretary-treasurer. 1928 i POTPOURRI Religious Organizations Presidents Hi 1 !

Miriam Beary President, Nervman Club Religious Leaders TO develop that spirit of brotherly love so evident in the life of the Creator has been one of the primary aims of the religious organizations this year. Campus life presents a challenge to each wide awake youth — a challenge to seek the higher, the finer type of living. Some have attained the goal because they have given more ; others are yet seeking. There is a song which is a challenge to youth to seek the beautiful in life! May it inspire you as it has hundreds of others. Unto the knights in the days of old, And We who would serve the King, Keeping watch on the mountain side. And loyally him obey, Came a vision of Holy Grail, In the Consecrate silence fcnott , And a voice through the watching night, That the challenge still holds today. Follow, follow the gleam, Follow, follow the gleam. Banners unfurled, o ' er all the world. Standards of worth o ' er all the earth. Follow, follow the gleam.

A. was first organized at Norma! in 1913. It has been an active organization ever since that time. The great objective which it has is to lead students to become disciples of Jesus Christ and to train them for useful christian service. Some of the aims of the Y. M. C. A. are to bring students face to face with his character and career in the full claims of Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour; to assist in developing the loyalty of students to their church; to create a college consciousness favorable to a vital and reasonable faith, and to recognize and utilize their college consciousness in religion in a way not unlike its utilization in the social life, athletics, and other activities; to afford the benefits which come from organic union with similar bodies of students in other colleges; to represent a thoroughly inter- denominational spirit, and to train men of all denominations to work together; and to afford to Christian students the training given by summer conferences held each year. The Young Men ' s Christian Association of the Louisiana State Normal College is one of the best organized student associations in the state. It has been represented at all the conferences, conventions, and council meetings held all over the state. The Normal Association sent two men to Blue Ridge, North Carolina last year and plans to send that many if not more this year. A student Association of the Y. M. C. A. is primarily a movement of students, for students, and by students. The student Association at Normal is making its presence felt, and has proved a wonderful inspiration for all its members. 1928 ftg - POTPOURRI ' Newman Club Cabinet LEFT TO RIGHT: GENIUS, BEARY, LANDRY, MARKS, BUTTITTA, BOURGEOIS, COMPTON, BECNEL, P1COU, QUINA, O ' NEAL, EDWARDS, S.

This club is a national organization cf Catholic men and women in non-sectarian schools, having for its purpose the uplifting of the religious life of the students and the creating and the fostering of a feeling of fellowship amcng them. The Apostleship of Prayer, a similar organi- zation which exerted a wide influence durng its nineteen years of existence was re- placed by the Newman Club. This was dene due to the fact that broader interests and inter-collegiate affiliations could become more prominent in associating with a national Catholic organization. The Newman Club at this college is one of the strongest clubs. Due to the efforts cf seme of the leaders here, a Gulf State Province of Federation of Catholic Clubs was organized. Several of the members of this Club became officers in the Gulf State Province— Miss M ' riam Beary is program chairman of the Gulf Pro- vince and Miss Doris Comptcn is a member of the Advisory Council. The conven- tion was held in Baton Rouge this year and the Newman Club here was represented by a large number of its outstanding members. Every year there is a National Convention held. This past year the Convention was held at Pittsburgh. Misses Aline Marks and Dorothy Picou were the dele- gates—bringing back inspiration, enthusiasm and new ideas— -to make the Newman Club at Normal a potent factor in the life of every Normal student. 1928 Freshman Religious Organization Council LEFT TO RIGHT: DEAN, MARLER, FITZGERALD, BRADFORD, BURRIS, BOGAN, COMPTON, BUTTITTA, WINTERS, CASON, WHITE, GENIUS, HORNSBY, DRAKE. 1928 The Freshman Religious Organization Commission ON April 16, 1927 the first Freshman Religious Organization Com- mission was instituted at the Louisiana State Normal. The mem- bers of this commission were selected by the religious organizations from their Freshman membership on a basis of service to their respective or- ganizations and to their college. No Freshman was eligible who failed to meet the high scholarship average required by the organization for member- ship in the commission. The student body met on the Academic Quadrangle in front of the historic Columns; and at the close of appropriate services, the officers of the respective organizations, with lighted torches, came forth and called the names of the Freshmen elected and with earnest address gave to the Fresh- men the lighted torch, symbolic of the light of high endeavor and attain- ment that each must keep burning throughout his college life and later in his work in the great field of service in the state and nation. Throughout the remainder of the year the Freshman Commission was occupied with perfecting the organization and cooperating with the religious organizations in promoting the realization of the great aims fostered by them. Complete plans were made to assist them in the orientation of the Freshmen in the fall during the Freshman Days and the following weeks. The work of 1927-28 was largely one of organization and program building. Commissioners of each future year will find the work of the Commission well begun and theirs will be only a work of carrying forward the program. 1928 Student VolunteerConvention Detroit, Michigan  STUDENT VOLUNTEER f MOVEMENT LEFT TO RIGHT: GATES, FOWLER, GARLAND, WEBSTER, HOUGH, MARLER, BRADFORD, PULLIN, WOOLEY, MCCAIN, TARLTON, BRYCE. 1928 taB POTPOURRI 31 Student Volunteer Convention [i T HE Tenth Quadrenial Convention of the Student Volunteer Move- ment for Foreign Missions met in Detroit, Michigan, December 28, 1927 to January 1, 1928. Although the work and aims of the Student Volunteer Movement are ever changing to meet the demands of the day, the general purpose is to keep before the younger generation of the United States of America and Can- ada, the needs of the world from the Christian ' s point of view. It also aids prospective Missionaries to keep in touch with the movement. At the convention held in Detroit the students were brought in contact with some of the great thinkers of the country, John R. Mott, Sherwood Eddy, Robert E. Speer and others. Many returned Missionaries and representatives of Y. M., Y. W., and various churches were present as advisors. The greater part of the group was composed of college students some of whom were prospective Missionaries. Present also at this con- vention were reprsentatives of twenty-seven nations, Chinese, Japanese, East Indians, African, Danish, German, Russian, Poles, Scotch, Bulgarian et cetera— who were able to give first hand information concerning their re- spective countries. Each of the Student Volunteer Conventions has a particular emphasis. At the Detroit Convention the emphasis was The Christianization of every phase of life. This convention gave evidence that the undying spirit of Youth is awake and on the march towards a new age. Those representing Normal were : Agnes Bryce, Alexa McCain, Verna Webster, Zula Pullin, Ora Garland, Chelsea Gates, Eloise Hough, Eva Fowler, Leo Marler, Luther Bradford, J. B.

In order that the B. S. U. may be more closely related with the Southern Union and thus know and study all problems with students on the campus, it sends delegates to all state and inter-state conferences. The B. S. U. was represented last spring at Birmingham by Eioise Hough, A. A. Robinette, Chelsea Gates, Sybil Geoghagan, and Mary Braddock. Delegates who attended conferences at Rustcn and Minden and who contributed to the program at these places were: Agnes Bryce, Eloise Hough, and Louise Martin. All Baptist students of the Normal automatically become members of the Union upon entering the college. 1928 1g POTPOURRI - Purple Jacket Club — Sk 1 LEFT TO RIGHT: THOMPSON, WILLIAMS, CALLENDER, HAWTHORNE, DYSON, C.

Z?p Ross Maggio ' The Purple Jacket Club is Normal ' s liveliest organization. Organized at the suggestion and under the personal supervision of President Roy, the Purple Jackets have maintained a position of leadership, trust and respect on the campus through their work as an organization. Honored with membership in this splendid club are: Mabel Callender, student body secretary, who as leader of the Purple Jackets, has been dauntless and persistent in her efforts to make Normal ' s most esteemed organ- ization all that it should be; Mary Jane Carter, Normal ' s typical co-ed; Doris Compton, Normal ' s most popular and peppiest student; Thompie Thompson, presi- dent of W.

Normal students, these are the leaders of every activity,— journalistic, athletic, social and religious. Supreme loyalty to Normal everywhere at all times, integrity of character, attributes of leadership, and a high scholastic status are the requisites these girls met in becoming one of Normal ' s Purple Jacket girls, a title of honor and confidence. These are the reasons that on Purple Jackets ' shoulders is placed the chief responsibilty of keeping high Normal ' s status; of keeping stainless her record; and of making permanent her recognition as one of America ' s A-l colleges. These are the reasons, too, that every Normal student should give every Purple Jacket girl his loyal support, his utmost confidence, and a degree of respect that Purple Jackets should, in turn, not neglect to command. ir 1928 POTPOURRI -«« Delta Sigma Epsilon Sorority LEFT TO RIGHT: FOWLER, GUILBEAU, CALLENDER, MARKS, DEAN, HUGHES, DAVIS, THOMPSON, DUBUS, KING, BEARY, MAY, BECKETT, GRANT, EDWARDS, DYSON, SINGLETON, CASON, THIBODEAUX, SMITH. 1928 £iii Phi of Delta Sigma Epsilon Sorority Founded, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, 1914 Established, L.

THE Iota chapter of Alpha Phi Gamma, national honorary journalistic frater- nity, was established at the Louisiana State Normal College, March 14, 1927, when twelve students were made charter members of the organization. The State Normal College is the only college south of the Mason Dixon Line that has a chapter of Alpha Phi Gamma. Alpha Phi Gamma is the only national honorary journalistic fraternity in the country that admits both men and women. The requirements for admittance are that a student must have served on the staff of his college paper for at least a year in an efficient manner or that he must have served at least two terms on the major staff of the college paper or annual. The fundamental aim of Alpha Phi Gamma is to promote journalistic en- deavors. The members of Iota chapter have organized a Press Association at the State Normal College which has for its purpose the dissemination of news pertain- ing to the college throughout the state in the weekly press of Louisiana. Matters pertaining to the building of school papers are discussed in the meetings held twice a month, and high ideals in journalism are advanced. Charter members of Iota chapter are: Pauline Olmstead, Monroe; Una Ruth Earnest, Houma; Frances Griffin, Monroe; Mary Ann Alleman, Napoleonville ; Irma Robinson, Bastrop; Floyd Garner, Shreveport; Aimee Andrews, Alexandria; Vivian McDonald, Junction City, Arkansas; Fon Belt, Monroe; Audrey Quina, Shreveport; Mercedes Champagne, Breaux Bridge; and Sara Lyles, Bunkie.

Its purpose was to establish a more intimate relationship and brotherhood among its members and to serve in every way as an uplifting factor in the lives of the members. Because of the standard which it demands only the best men can become one of its members. It is necessary for them to reach a moral and scholastic attainment before being accepted. Its members have been of the very best men who have attended Normal since the Fraternity was organized. Not only were they leaders at Normal but they are now leaders in their professions out in the state. The six charter members were : Leroy S. Miller, Overton Roy, Walker Teekell, Charles Webb, Joe Webb, and P. E. Wilson. The first constitution and by-laws was written by a committee composed of P. E. Wilson, Chairman, Joe Webb and W. Teekell on June 27, 1921. The Fraternity has grown rapidly from the number of six in 1921 to one hundred forty-five in 1928. A total membership of one hundred forty-five means besides the twenty six resident members one hundred nineteen out in the state, many of whom hold very influential positions. The Frat is proud indeed to claim the two officers of the Alumni Association as members— namely Superintedent G. O. Houston of Shreveport, President and L. S. Miller, Vice-President. For years the Sigma Delta Tau has been setting the pace and among the ac- complishments of its members are practically all the outstanding athletes in all sports; many of her best Debaters; all of her Student Body Presidents and many others. It has been a common thing for teams to be made up entirely of Sigma Delta Taus. For example the Simmons-Sigler combination in basketball of ' 24 and the basketball teams of the winter ' 25- ' 26, and ' 26— ' 27 which made a won- derful record for Normal were members of Sigma Delta Tau. Sigma Delta Tau continues to grow and progress always with purpose in mind for which it was organized. The fellows can always recall with pleasures the memories connected with the initiations, banquets and other events. 1928 Lambda Zeta Fraternity m LEFT TO RIGHT: SANDERS, MARLER, MAGGIO, FOIL, PROUDFIT, ALLDAY, BOYD, LEE, BAILEY, 0.

Lee Vice-President Leo Marler Secretary-Treasurer Bert Boyd Master of Ceremonies ROSS MaGGIO .... Editor of Zigzag ON July 15, 1925, five young men of the Normal College met and organized a social fraternity. This fraternity was given the name of Lambda Zeta fraternity, and the five young men who organized it were: A. B. Davis, B. B. Buatt, C. L Madden, L. B. Rusheon, and O. L. Wyble. O. L Wyble was elected President, and A. B. Davis was elected Secretary-Treasurer. The fraternity is entirely a social one, and the primary purpose was to create an organization of fellows bound together by fellowship and brotherly love. From this small beginning the fraternity has grown until it has at present an en- rollment of between fifty and sixty members, of which twenty-two are in residence. In the spring of 1927 the fraternity realized the need of a faculty advisor. This matter was discussed in a meeting of all the members and it was decided that the bond between the member selected and the fraternity should be more than that between a fraternity and an advisor, so it was moved and passed that the member of the faculty who should be selected was to become an honorary member of the fraternity. Mr. George C. Proudfit was nominated and unanimously elected, and the fraternity is realizing more every day that it indeed secured a Prince of Good Fellows when Mr. Proudfit became one of its members. In the fall of 1927 the members of the fraternity decided that there should be some means by which the old members of the Fraternity who were not in residence could be kept informed as to the doing of the fraternity at college. The result of this was that The Lambda Zeta Zigzag was established. The Zigzag is a weekly news sheet, made up and hectographed by members of the Lambda Zeta fraternity. Ross A. Maggio is editor-in-chief. Lambda Zeta Fraternity is and has been represented in every kind of activity at the college. The members of the fraternity and the years in which they were admitted are given below: Members in residence: James Alexander, ' 27; Beverly Allday, ' 26; Jack Bailey, ' 27; Leonard Beard, ' 27; Bert Boyd, ' 26; Jesse Burris, ' 28; Hugh Foil, ' 27; Leonard Fowler, ' 27; Gene Franks, ' 28; William Hall, ' 28; Guy Harkness, ' 25; Harry Hawthorne, ' 28; Clark Jack- son, ' 27; J.

It was organized by students to give an opportunity to prepare programs, to become familiar with the art of speaking before an audience, to learn the general rules of parliamentary law practice, and to acquire the art of dealing with their fellow students. Although other societies have been organized S. A. K. still holds the position of one of the strongest. During the year contests of various kinds are held, and the members of the society find keen pleasure in competing for the honors. Many of the honorable laurels have been won by the enthusiasm and loyalty of S. A. K. Always loyal to the Yellow and White, the members are striving to make S. A. K. one of the foremost organizations on the campus. Each year there is a parliamentary law contest held between the various societies.

E. L. S. is one the strongest societies upon the campus to-day. Steadily and loyally its members have striven to make it the outstanding organization which Nor- mal fosters. Many of the contests which E. L. S. entered have been won by them. This society has been particularly active in athletics. For four years E. L.

This medal is the gift of a former graduate, Mrs. Mattie O ' Daniel Rinsland, of Tishomingo, Okla., who became interested in this work during her course at Normal College. In the parliamentary law contest the decision is based on knowledge of the fundamentals of parliamentary law, ability to conduct a procedure in which the opposing class attempts to call the chair class on points of order. The Seekers After Knowledge have for the past three years ably carried away the honors. This year, however, M. C. C. came back in her old glory.

Mr. Lorimer Storey, Parliamentarian, was presented with the medal. 1928 fe POTPOURRI Freshman Literary Society IN the Fall term of 1 926 the Freshman Literary Societies were formed. The pur- pose was to coach the new students in literary society work so that they would be trained for effective work in the Eclectic Literary Society, the Modern Culture Club, and the Seekers After Knowledge Society. All freshmen are required to have one year of this work for three consecutive terms with meetings coming semi-monthly. The freshman group is divided into sections, each section being under the direction of a member of the college faculty. The nature of training in these societies consists of parliamentary law procedure, elements of program building, dramatics, stage presence, and the widening of the field of information. The Freshman Lite rary Societies this year are divided into six sections of ap- proximately seventy-five in each division. The societies are under the direction of Miss Annie Laurie Pujos, assistant professor of English at the college. The work accomplished this year has been of a high type, and it is believed by the authorities in charge of the literary society work at the State Normal that the training the new student receives in the Freshman Literary Societies is worthy of commendation. 1928 Freshman Literary Society Basketball Team GORDON, BLACKMAN, WILLIAMS, JOHNSON, CAMPBELL, LEWIS, CARSON, PEACOCK, PEAK, SANDERS, K1RKLIN, JONES, PARKER, WRIGHT, MIMS, THIGPEN, SIKES, WHITE. @£8 aat z o Q 0£ UJ 8 K U H J 2 S I to UJ OS ' PI I Mr 1928 Freshman Literary Society Group One Officers 1927-1928 FALL TERM C.

The Club was organized to give those students who drive to the college every day from a distance an opportunity to take literary society work required by the college authorities for graduation without staying late in the evening for meetings in the regular literary societies. The average attendance is forty-five. Each student receives training in public speaking, preparing programs, and in general stage presence. In addition the student is given an opportunity to take part in a play sponsored by the Club each term. w 1928 I POTPOURRI Euthenics Club NEWTON, THICPEN, COLE, WREN, I.

In fact, it is a determining factor in the moulding of character. With this in view, the Euthenics Club was organized. On November 17, 1926 a group of girls, among whom were Mary Braddock, Mary Ena Dean, Lester Mayfield, Elizabeth King, and Chelsea Gates, interested in Home Economics, met and organized the Euthenics Club at the Louisiana State Normal College. A constitution was drawn up by a committee of three and was accepted by the group. It held as the object of this club three primary factors. First and foremost among these is to promote a professional spirit. It also cultivates and fosters sociabilty and develops culture. Mary Braddock was the first president with Mary Ena Dean, secretary, Eliza- beth King, treasurer, and Chelsea Gates, press reporter. Miss Dexter was chosen the faculty advisor, and her splendid cooperation with the girls acted as an incentive to spur them on. This club belongs to the National Home Economics Association at whose conventions we send delegates. Our first representatives were Gertrude Dalton and Shirley Wren who attended the convention held at Ashville, North Carolina. Euthenics Club endeavors to prove its worth in that it promotes a scientific know- ledge of and inspires a deeper love for the home and the art of home-making. The significance of the organization may well be summed up in the meaning of the title, Euthenics. It stands for better environment and right living. 1928 Contemporary Life Club J.

Secretary and Treasurer THE CONTEMPORARY LlFE CLUB was founded at the Normal, December 4, 1913. It is composed of those students who have elected social science courses. Its purpose is to develop qualities of leadership among its members; to fit them for efficient service in civic movements; train them for matters that make for public progress, for proper educational development, and for social growth. Current topics are discussed and students are interested in reading papers and keeping pace with the events of the day. Numerous debates on national problems stimulate an interest in these and also keep the student informed as to what is happen- ing in world affairs. 1928 ill OQUINN, MARTIN, BLADES, LOWERY, JACKSON, FOIL, ARBUTHNOT, GAMBLE, BAILEY, PUGH, BERNARD, BRUCE, WHITE, HUGHES, BOND, KING, WAGNER, NORSWORTHY, BANKSTON, SHARP, EDWARDS. 1928 Rural Life Club Officers FALL TERM, 1927 Coleman Martin President ELVINA KlLLINGSWORTH Vice-President Elsie Merritt Secretary Jesse Burris Treasurer Hugh Foil Critic WINTER TERM, 1927-1928 Jesse Burris President WlLMA BANKSTON Vice-President Irma Bruce Secretary Jack Gamble Treasurer THE RURAL Life Club was organized in 1910. It was one of the first clubs to be formul ated at Normal. The purpose of the club is to develop a more general and vivid interest and knowledge of rural life. Problems and social conditions of rural life are studied, and solutions to these problems are suggested. Demonstrations of rural education in Louisiana and other states are made, investi- gations and surveys of rural communities are analyzed and discussed. Comparisons are made of conditions in Louisiana with those found in other states. The club also endeavors to build up in each member the ability of leadership. Parliamentary Law is introduced into every meeting in which Robert ' s Rules of Order are observed and carried out very carefully. All the members are given an opportunity to participate. The membership of the Rural Life Club is composed chiefly of students from the Department of Agriculture. We do not hesitate to say that for those pursuing this type of work nowhere within the lines of human endeavor are life ' s opportunities greater than in the fertile lands of our native state— Louisiana. 1928 fes POTPOURRI «« Science Club i SCIENCE CLUB TISON, WILLIAMSON, DOUCOURNAU, DYSON, ROBINETTE, GAUDIN, LAWRENCE, EDMONSON, CLOUTIER, CHAMBERS, MADDOX, HARKNESS, SILLS, THOMPSON, GUNTER, FOURNET, WOOLEY, SCALIA, BRADFORD, SHARP, JOHNSON. 1928 g§ POTPOURRI Science Club THE SCIENCE Club was organized in order to in- crease interest in scientific investigations and to acquaint better the students with the field of Science, its problems and their solutions as proved by authorities in this field. This club is a great aid to the students of the Science Department in supplementing the class work with other scientific knowledge— thus broadening their field. It is evident that this organization has proved not only an inspiration but also an asset to every student who is a member. The members of the faculty of this department are always present and gladly advise and gladly help the students in their investigations and offer valuable sug- gestions. The training which is gained in these clubs is such that will make the students better teachers and citizens. 1928 gi POTPOURRI - w j sffi Spanish Club LEFT TO RIGHT: F.

The club is under the able direction cf M ' ss Mary Frances Davis, assistant professor of English and Dramatic Art. The purpose of the club is to put on plays for the enter- tainment of the student body and the public at large and to develop that talent in dramatic work which may appear among the students from time to time. In the past, the Dramatic Club has sponsored at least one play every term for the students, and has taken its most outstanding plays to many of the smaller cities of Louisiana. Some of the most significant plays which have been given are: Midsummer Night ' s Dream, Twelfth Night, If I Were King. Who ' s the Manager, Green Stockings, and A Lucky Break. In addition to the four term plays, the Dramatic Club has also produced each year three original plays, written by students of the Normal and entered in the Lesche Annual Playwriting Contest. The outstanding performances of this kind occurred during the summer session of 1926, and consisted of The Enemy, La Voudaux, and Marguarita de la Varga. 1928 Scenes from Lucky Break ii„n MM 1928 jg POTPOURRI May Day Festival 1 wi H lBKMrSQ 1928 mm- POTPOURRI «M May Day Festival 1928 Spanish Club Play 1928 Women ' s At hletic Association Bessie Thompson Mabel Callender Officers 1927-1928 , . . .

It remained a local organization until the winter term of the next year, when under Miss Bessie Thompson it became part of the National W. A. A. The purpose of the organization is to develop the individuals mentally as well as physically and socially. It tends to build up high health standards and create general efficiency of the members, giving chances for the development of leadership and special abilities. Through the swimming, track, field, and tennis meets and the soccer, hockey, basketball, and volley ball tournaments it is possible to earn points toward an N sweater. Since the beginning of the organization fourteen sweaters have been awarded. Miss Mabel Callender of Haynesville has been the high point girl of the W. A. A. for two consecutive years. At the last meeting of the W. A. A. last year Miss Zilpha Willson was chosen the Honor Girl for the organization. Each spring it is customary for the officers and the N Club, which consists of those girls that have won N sweaters, to go on a week-end camp. Last spring this camp was held on the picturesque banks of the Cane River where the girls enjoyed many happy hours of swimming .boating, and fishing. Mrs. Keyser and Miss Melba Bounchaud, faculty sponsors of the organization, declare the camp to be unequaled by any if the basis of classification is to be pleasure that was derived. One of the most interesting events on the Hill each year is the annual ap- pearance of the Barndoor-Bailhay Circus. It is anxiously looked forward to by the student body and faculty alike. Many moments were spent in training the ele- phants to do the latest local dances, and teaching Catherine the giraffe manners. The Cotillion Club is a means of entertainment to many. During the Carnival season it sponsored a masquerade ball that was voted a huge success. W. A. A. is open to all girls who wish to join. The scope it covers is large and one is sure to find the sport that she likes best. 1928 potpourr i ' mt W. A. A.

The Choral Club offers an opportunity for training the voice and a pleasure to those who enjoy music. At Christmas, Easter, and in the spring special Cantatas are learned and pre- sented. Normal boasts of one of the finest choral clubs in the South. The director, Mr. George C. Proudfit, works untiringly for its success, and through his efforts and the ability and cooperation of the students, performances of excellence are given each year. 1928 Agricult :ure REALIZING that students learn through actual experience, the Agriculture department at the Louisiana State Normal College is training its students to become efficient in their chosen profession. Scientific farming and all matters which are a part of better farming are stressed. None but the best methods are used, experiments being used to illustrate these methods. The farm is the back-bone of the nation. To have better farms is to have better homes, better schools, better conditions for living in general. Thus with a view toward progressiveness, the students of agriculture are daily striving to learn how to live and work more scientifically, economically— and bring prosperity to that phase of work. 1928 ATHLETICS iSb- POTPOURRI -mi Cheer Leaders LEFT TO RIGHT: THOMPSON, CALLENDER, CORNISH, DORMON, COMPTON We ' ll be loyal to you L.

How they flood my thoughts as I sit and ponder upon the care-free days of my youth; childhood hours, high school days, and, more vividly than others, college years, when inspiring friends were discovered, ambitions formed and new vistas of interest opened. I wish for a power which could bring those hours back and cause me to live again those fleeting, happy years. I long for an opportunity to stroll again along the paths that I trod with light and hopeful step. Alas! I can neither relieve those hours nor walk again among familiar scenes. Indifferent Time, ever revolving, heeds not those pleas for a return of blissful moments. Uncanny distance, never changing, remains unaltered and divides me from the haunts of youth. Only one solace remains, a comfort which is with me at all times serving to revive my spirit and quicken my love of old comrades and bygone surroundings. Potpourri! A panorama which brings to my view the faces of old companions, revered teachers, and scenes of past labors and pleasures. An assimilation of all those ideals and ambitions toward which the college strives. A compil- ation of all those interests and goals which the students uphold. A treasure whose value cannot be estimated except in terms of bound- less joy which it brings to all those for whom it holds fond re- membrances; for, through it, ties of bondage are maintained be- tween students and their Alma Mater which years cannot efface nor distance dim. I prize that volume which can alleviate all my sordid cares and turn my thoughts to gay and eventful youth; I treasure that book which symbolizes all my memories of college years — that crystalliza- tion of youthful joys and sorrows, triumphs and disappointments - Potpourri ! 1928 Wn jj g POTPO URRI - Autographs 1928 rail m zr PO TPOURRI - m Autographs 1928 Autographs 1928 r M B PO TPOURRI - M Autographs 1928 POTPOURRI Autographs 1928 Autographs 1928 1 1 ' iii to- ill 1 1 fe POTPOURRI - H CORONA The only portable with a real variable line spacer like the large office machines — all the other operating features of the big machines, too.
