THOMAS LANHAM McCAUGHAN. COLLEGE PRESIDENT f%- Talkin ' β Official kind β by President For thirty-eight years he has devoted the work of his life to Northwestern State Col- lege; as instructor of Business Law he proved that college is not all play; as Di- rector of Athletics he stressed sportsman- ship at all times; as Dean of Men, at each assembly during registration he greeted the freshmen with a familiar grin, and a plea to keep both myself and the administra- tion out of jail by sitting in the proper seats during football games; as cage mentor he produced championship teams on the hard- wood; and as president of our college he has secured the confidence of student and fac- ulty member alike. AT NORTHWESTERN Our Coach β Our President Being appointed president at a time which might have discouraged men of lesser determination, he handled the dissatisfied spirit of both faculty members and students with the firm but gentle hand of a knowing leader. He has reached the honored position of President of the college as a result of his untiring efforts to promote the interests of our college in whatever field he could. He has become the most beloved figure on our campus by insisting again and again, Just call me Coach. We proudly and affectionately hail the Coach . . . Our President. JOHN B.

Petrovich, and Vice- President Charles Castaing, the student executive body maintained its honor and prestige with various functions of a more far-reaching nature than just for the present time. Among these attempts toward a more perfect student government for the college was the institution of the new Court to which both men and women might appeal their cases, with representation based on both male and female. The name-band fund was another of the activities which was sought by this body, and though no one thought that there was a good pos- sibility of the realization of the idea, nonetheless everyone on the Council was working toward that goal. Awards from the Student Council were presented to these deserv- ing individuals; and elections were handled in a most efficient man- ner, befitting all the trust put in this group by the students on the hill.

S. C, the Student Senate, continued as a constitutional body with its chief function being that of a legislative body. Under the President for the Fall Semester, James Johnson, the leg is- lation passed was of a more critical nature, be- ing confined more specifically to the improve- ment of the N. S. C. constitution. Of course, these and the many other bills that passed through the assemblies were subject to the ratifi- cation of the entire Student Body. Friends, Romans, and Countrymen . . . β The Spring Semester saw a change of Presi- dents with the graduation of James Johnson, and Marie Tilleux stepped up from the V.-P. ' s office to that of the President. Among other legislation passed during the Spring Semester were the important amendments improving the student constitution on such matters as cheerleaders. At all times during the year a close connec- tion was maintained between the Senate and the Student Council, with difficult problems being worked out in joint committee meetings of both bodies.

WILLIFORD Chief Justice As the disciplinary body for Student Govern- ment, the Student Honor Court has power to act in the event of violations or infractions of the rules which govern the conduct of men stu- dents on the campus. With the purposes of building higher stand- ards of citizenship on the campus among the men students and to equitably administer jus- tice through a student-sponsored judicial tribunal of men, the court, in itself, serves a definite step forward in the trend to a more responsible stu- dent government.

WOMEN ' S L_ I COUNCIL lr β JEANETTE PACE President The Associated Women Students is composed of all the women students registered at North- western. The intellectual, social, and spiritual well-being of the women students is the main goal of the A.W.S. Each year the A.W.S. sponsors two popular events on the campus. Christmas at Home, held at Varnado Hall, is well attended and en- joyed by many students of the college. The Backward Dance, also an A.W.S. achievement which is enjoyed by all, gives many girls the op- portunity to turn the tables on the males here every spring.

T H E PURPLE JACKETS MISS CATHERINE WINTERS Faculty Sponsor An honorary group of girls chosen each year to assist in all functions of the college, the Purple Jackets have maintained their esteemed position on the hill this year with a continued inestimable job, well done. Although their number is only twenty-one, their service seems to be three-fold larger as their colorful purple and white jackets are mingled with each function here at N. S. C. The girls are chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, and loyalty to the Alma Mater. No group has done so much toward making Northwestern a better, and bigger school to attend.

DON JONES Business Managers THE CURRENT SAUCE Under the editorship of J. C. Chuck Tillman, the CURRENT SAUCE continued in the 1950-51 yearto be outstanding. This year ' s eight-page edi- tions covered the entire year from Freshman Day to Graduation, and covered it well. A very good job for pictures was done, even though the school photographer, John A. Moore, joined the U. S. Air Force just before the Christmas vacation. Pic- tures made by Editor Tillman filled in very nicely, and with the good pix came the egually good copy Everyone reads the Current Sauce ' 30 written both by Editor Tillman and his staff. The Letter-to-the-Editor column continued to be the voice of the masses, and contained some interesting notes from the student viewpoint on every sort of issue from administrative problems to world politics. Some of the more serious con- troversy, concerning the prank-death of Kaplan, voiced the entire student body ' s saddened grief about this incident. With not too many ups-and-downs the Cur- rent Sauce may be said to have had just another good year of coverage on all phases of student life on our own campus as well as on other cam- puses. STAFF J.

MOORE Photographer MARY LOU STATHAM Typist MARY LOUISE McBRIDE Typist BOBBYE LOU HANCOCK Typist JANE GAINES Typist DR. JOHN DUFFY Faculty Advisor Every student at N. S. C. has a different opinion as to the subject-matter they want most to be recorded in their annuals. Necessarily so, there will be people who will find great mismanagement, and rightfully so, in this pictorial record of every life led on the campus, in- dividually as well as by group. From the very beginning, the handicap of lack of knowledge on the part of the editor, Ronald Martin β whose name appears on the title page β was apparent. But, this job of making per- manent the deeds of the past for the future is a diffi- cult one, and one cannot hope to fulfill the desires of every student. Yet, here it is. Appraisal is possible, so make the most of it, and may your suggestions aid in the production of next year ' s book. As for the staff, talent for the unexpected was a pre- requisite, and all unexpectations were fulfilled to the utmost. The editor pushed, the business manager, in the person of Robert Popeye Allen, dragged, and Julia McBroom as the associate editor maintained a steady balance with a flow of good copy. Throughout the pro- duction to learn was the aim of all, and learn we did. Whether we learned well or not is for you, as the students at N. S. C, to decide. Actually, the book ' s staff was served a terrible blow with the death of Tom McCaughan, who held the title of Top: There you are, my dear!

But credit must be given because it was no fault of Tom ' s that any part of this book was late, for only of his section may it be said that It was on time. ' Of all the staffs an editor might have, the fol- lowing had what it takes, if only they had not been so reluctant in giving forth: Cecil P. Davis, Organizations; Tom McCaughan, Class; Marie Tilleux, .Features; E. G. Smith, Snaps; John Batten, Sports; Louise Vick, Art; John A. Moore, Photographer, and Mary Lou Statham, Perry Kinard, Mary Louise McBride, Bobbye Lou Han- cock, Jane Gains; Typists. W th Dr. John Duffy as the faculty sponsor for the POTPOURRI, we had wonderful cooperation, critical advice, and steady encouragement which greatly aided the staff in times of trial. In conclusion the editor and staff hope that you enjoy the 1951 POTPOURRI as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to you. Aren ' t staff meetings wonderful? i)) S } WILLIAM SMITH Director of Forensics Under the direction of William Smith, new Forensic Coach, the N. S. C. Debate Squad began to stretch and grow this year. Mr. Smith started the year with only three experienced debators, Luke Petrovich, Jimmy John- son, and Julie McBroom. Soon he had a larger squad with a lot of new blood making a fine showing in their first year in debate. The squad journeyed to Conway, Arkansas for the annual tournament there after successfully participating in the Alabama Discussion Tournament. Luke captured a excellent rating at the latter tourney. The squad expects to journey to Washington, D. C. again this year, and to attend the Pi Kappa Delta Tourna- ment (National Forensic Fraternity Tournament). In addition to traveling about the country, the squad worked with Mr. Smith in staging two forensic meets and a high school debate clinic here at Northwestern. All three of these activities proved successful. Members of the squad are: Luke Petrovich, Thomas Poole, Don Jones, Jim Vorhoff, Cecil Neilsen, Joyce Winn, Jerry Raspberry, Beth Hargrove, Julie Mc- Broom, S. O. Long, Jimmy Johnson, and Beth Cox.

I ' B Cw 34 The 1951 edition of the Demonaires, in keeping with their reputation, furnished all college functions with melodies galore. Led in the Fall Semester by Gene Flores, and in the Spring Semester by Frank Pasqua, they de- livered the goods oftentimes, and each occasion was brightened as they rang out with Sophisticated Swing. Despite the many dates at which they played for everything from All-College dances to a skeleton band for the Shrine Circus, our music-makers pushed into their scheduled dances each Wednesday evening in the effort to get a name-band down to good ole N. S. C. An evening ' s rest is all they wanted, but if they ever shall have that evening off, everyone on the hill will cer- tainly miss their masterful music.

SPEECH The I950- ' 5I drama productions brought thrills and laughs to the students ot N. S. C. Once more Donald Cam proved himself capable of extending this phase of speech to the enjoy- ment of all students. Two major productions highlighted the drama year. They were Cuckoos on the Hearth, a mystery-comedy which alternately thrilled and chilled the audience, and Oh, Suzanna, the Spring musical comedy. The latter was presented with the cooperation of the Music Department. Included in the year ' s activities were several student-directed one-act plays. Couldn ' t be worse! Or could it!

The Northwestern Clinic is outstand- tivity valuable to both speech majors and other ing among the state ' s speech correction work. Watch out! That ' s tough! Β£) DWIGHT G. DAVIS Band Director High-stepping down Front Street THE NORTHWESTERN BAND Continuing the tradition of a good marching band as well as a good concert band, the N.S.C. musicians, under the direction of Dwight G. Davis, provided each and every function with delightful band musicals. Each football game ' s half was brightened with the colorful music and marching of the combined efforts of the 60-piece Band and The Demonettes. State Fair Review Homecoming Half ill! , T Ttl at! ! Β | n t i 1 3 UVliil rs __β β β β Sitting it out! f OT Mr. Davis maintained the prestige of N.S.C. ' s band by presenting at each game a new and in- teresting theme to make the crowd thrill with satis- faction. Cooperation on the band ' s part enabled the student attitude on N.S.C. ' s campus to lag at no time. Playing at every pep rally, concert assem- blies, and athletic contests, the N.S.C. Band was indeed a booster to the morale on the hill. Such results prove to the visitors on the hill that Northwestern has not only a well-rounded music program, but it has the vim and vigor of the pro- fessors to enhance the interest of the entire stu- dent body. The Honor Guard at Homecoming t , ' I L5 fj T H E CHOIR DONALD G. GLATTLY Director The College Choir, under the able direction of Donald G. Glattly, continues to be considered one of the best trained and noted musical groups in Louisiana. With more than a hundred voices it was another of the largest and most active choral groups in the school ' s history, developed since Don Glattly assumed charge of choral activities at Northwestern State, The enthusiasm of the The N. S. C. Choir during the Messiah !f. it - .- β β’β β ' lΒ« J The College Singers at Christmas Time many students who were members of the chorus and colleqe singers this year is tribute to the popu- larity and ability of Mr. Glattly. Presentation of Handel ' s difficult and beautiful oratorio, The Messiah, was again one of the highlights of the Christmas season. Their very creditable performance of the great classic met with the acclaim of students, townspeople and out-of-town visitors and is now well established as an annual event. Nucleus of the chorus is a smaller group of more experienced choristers who form the college sing- ers. This compact and select body serves as the travelinq squad of musical good will for the col- lege. Out-of-town programs and local broadcast have made them well known to this section of the state. The college singers conducted a spring tour in 1950, where they received great acclaim when they appeared in New Orleans before the Northwestern Alumni and for the memorial serv- ice of the state ' s Elk convention. T H E SYMPHONY Barely three years old, the Northwestern State Symphony enjoyed another successful season of progress and acclaim under the capable direction of Professor Val Hill. The year began with a concert before the stu- dent body, which proved of great interest to all. Their next appearance was accompanying the Col- lege Chorus for the magnificent presentation of Handel ' s Messiah, which has come to be an an- nual event of both the College Chorus and the Symphony. Besides their many events on the campus, they have given a great number of concerts in high schools of nearby towns. Another event that is becoming a must is their grade school pops concerts. During these many concerts, can be heard music by such great masters as Victor Herbert, Ferdie Grofe, Richard Wagner, Gliere, Von Weber, and special arrange- ments of show tunes by Professor Carluci of the music department. 42 Same song β 2nd verse Same song β 3rd Verse Consisting of forty members, the Symphony is made up of students and residents of Natchi- toches. Mr. Hill is an accomplished violinist and violist, a graduate of the American Conservatory and Northwestern State College Orchestra Nebraska University, and together with his tal- ented wife, gives many programs for local and radio audiences during the year. He plans ex- tensive tours for the Symphony during the coming year. 43 Demonettes on Parade THE D E N E T T E S LOUISA JOHNSON CARMEN BASCO . ELVA SUE TUCKER .

Performances were the ultimate of precision, and each drill was complete in every detail. A lot of work, some fun, and a great deal of determina- tion to make Northwestern proud owners of such a group were the aims of these cheerful marchers of N. S. C. Directed by Louisa Johnson, both as President and Field Captain, the Demonettes were typical of the type of student participation that every school might be proud to present. We are indeed fortunate to have such an organization with which to color our activities on the gridiron as well as in the parades. 44 R. 0. T. C. LT. COL. JAMES W. BOWMAN Commanding Officer R.O.T.C.

Under the supervision of Lt. Col. James W.

BATTERY B This unit at N.S.C., an anti-aircraft artillery battalion with two batteries in the fall semester and three batteries in the spring semester, trains the men in the technique of handling anti-aircraft weapons, and gives them instructions on basic army tactics and courtesy. Included in this cur- riculum are courses on first aid, training with indi- vidual weapons, drilling, and a summer encamp- ment of six weeks which expected graduates have to attend during the summer between their junior and senior years. At the end of their training R.O.T.C. students are graduated with a commis- sion as second lieutenant in the Army Reserve. Battery B Qener l Shof$ R.O.T.C. DRILL SQUAD that is being given by the R.O.T.C. unit. However, this organization was disbanded during the latter part of the spring semester due to lack of occasions at which time the men could appear, but at the same time drill instruction was carried on to increase the possible size of this organization so that its functions next year might be with an in- creased number of men. This type of activity displays the kind of in- terest that is built in the R.O.T.C. unit here; truly, a compliment to the energies of the instructors. During the fall ' semester and part of the spring semester the R.O.T.C. displayed a fine group of marchers to take part in the various functions of the campus life. A group of eigh- teen men formed the Drill team, which was made up of the best drilling men in the battalion. Di- rected by Cadet Lt. Rudy Berlin, with assistance from the regular army staff, this squad performed at parades and ball games, giving the public and fellow students a brief look at the type of training NURSING SCHOOL ANNIE MAE GREEN Clinical Instructor ELISABETH REVERE HORTON JOSEPHINE RAPPAPORT ANNIE LOUISE THORPE Business Manager Social and Guidance Director Assistant Professor Clinical Instructor GRAHAM PRICE Director, Nursing School With Miss Graham Price as the director, the Department of Nursing was established at Northwestern in September of 1949. Having grown from 188 student nurses enrolled in the fall semester to 208 enrolled in the spring semester the nursing program offers three alternatives: I. A three- year diploma program for high school students who are interested in qualifying to take the State Board examina- tion for the Registered Nurse Certificate. 2. A four-year program for students who are interested in qualifying to take the State Board examination for the Registered Nurse Certificate, and who are interested in earning a B.S. de- gree in Nursing. 3. A two-year program for registered nurses who are interested in earning a B.S. degree in Nursing. So as to give all students in Nursing the required prac- tical experience in the field of Nursing, Northwestern ' s Department of Nursing is affiliated with the Baptist Hos- pital of Alexandria: Highland Sanitarium, North Louisiana Sanitarium, Shreveport Charity Hospital, and Tri-State Hospital of Shreveport; and E. A. Conway Memorial Hos- pital of Monroe, Louisiana. During the Spring semester sixty-three Northwestern students resided in training at these various hospitals.

Beauties for the 1951 POTPOURRI were selected in two campus contests. Various men ' s organizations selected the contestants who were first judged by a group of male stu- dents on the campus. Jack Sarphie, representing Nardis of Dallas, was the final judge and ranked the first six beauties.

She is chosen by the POT- POURRI staff, in conjunction with the editor. Qualifications include school spirit, leadership, and personality. After nominations were made, a vote was taken and MISS POTPOURRI was named. Her name was kept secret until the day of the Ball, and then amid the colorful decora- tions of Christmas time, she stepped from inside her package. Miss Dollie Smith holds this honor this year, and the entire staff is honored to have such an outstanding student bear the title name of N. S. C. ' s yearbook. At the same time a court is chosen, a group of eight girls who bear the same gualifications as does MISS POTPOURRI. We of this year ' s staff are proud to have presented to the school, the court shown below. Small remembrances were presented to both MISS POTPOURRI and her court at the Ball.

My name is Pandemonium, but all my friends call me Pan, so β just call me Pan! The sea- son looked good, on the whole, and with a schedule of ten games I thought my Demon-boys would really get hot and tear this conference up. They began with a bang, and got four wins in a row, but β they failed to tear up the conference. La. Tech did it again, 15 to 7, for our first loss. Boy, did that burn me up. But, Coach Turpin, Brown, and Ledet compiled a pretty good rec- ord nevertheless. A record of six wins and four losses is nothing to be sneezed at, and I was mighty proud when we beat La. College at the Central Louisiana State Fair by the score of I 2 to 10. But then, I didn ' t know what was in store β four straight losses. When we came back and beat Mississippi Southern in our homecoming tilt I felt a little better, for it is always good for our old grads to come back to see a victory. With that brief look, I ' ll start the traveling. Now when we played Central Oklahoma State . . .

STATE Joe Lancaster and big brother, Buddy, crossed the double stripe once apiece after displaying neat running. Elred Red Harp handed my two touchdowns for the record after making 110 yards in five tries. Bobby Davis and Johnny Emmons posted touchdowns, too, wi!h Mr. Davis adding five extra points (Any body who does that deserves to be called Mr. ) Steve Cole played the best game of his career in an all-around performance against the Central Oklahoma aggregation. Merrick Tasso Young and Jack Huckaby showed up well as I tooted away on my horn. Well-done for the first, boys! Two ' s two many Course you know me β Pan β the real spirit of N. S. C, and I might add, the first cousin to Demon-boy. I have bsen present in everything that ever went wrong β or right β at N. S. C. Well, I was there when the Demons wrested a 41-20 count out of a stubborn Central Oklahoma eleven. I exercised vinlen.ly follow- ing the local combo up and down the gridiron, but it was wor.h every sore muscle and victory toot. (You know, that little flute I carry around does wonders for my boys on the field.) N. S. C. coaches were highly pleased with the initial efforts with the T. I couldn ' t help but note the effectiveness of our beef-boys In the line. Many-a-hole was opened by Pharis, Sibley, Carter, and Smith, who played stellar ball. -v- β’ W A Β« n NORTHWESTERN vs. N. W. MISSOURI My boys continued their winning ways by prodding Northwest Misv with their purple and white pitchforks to the tune of 53-0. Wave after wave of clean-jersey subs poured on the gridiron after regulars posted an assuring score. However, the tempo increased along with my blood pressure as tallies rained down on the hapless Bearcats. Five different quarterbacks fed seven various backs on scoring jaunts with Bobby Davis splitting the uprights for 6 out of 8 P.A.T.s. Yours truly tooted the fight song so much I lost a tonsil. A jammed stadium also roared approval of Harry Turpin ' s ' 50- ' 5 1 edition of the Demons as vicious line play by Sibley, Keaton, Huckaby, Young, and Moore stalled all Bearcat thrusts. Jackie Givens fashioned a brilliant defensive game netting 3 pass interceptions while Donald Nation made qoite a reputation for himself as one ' I - t I think someone s follov of the G. S. C. ' s hardest tacklers.. Though definitely one-sided, the game proved interesting be- cause of the variety of backs that scored. Johnny Emmons tallied after a 26-yard jaunt on his beautiful fake-pass-then-run play. James Beck thundered 65 yards to pay dirt and was followed up by Red Harp, who scampered 26 for his TD. James Junior Tur- ner amassed two markers, on a 15-yard plunge and a precision pass-then-lateral play involving Calvert and himself. M. D. Ray clamored over from I -yard out and Tom Broussard slanted off tackle for 15 yards for a score. Frosh Ralph Ezelle concluded the TD parade on a romp covering a quarter of the gridiron.

Q| ELRED RED HARP LEON FULLER CENTRAL LOUISIANA Now La. College was rated this year by some cruds as a top- notch outfit, boasting a rugged forward wall and a neat passing offense, that is ' till my boys played ' em. Though the pessimistic cries of the Demons ' mentors were strong, we all knew that our lads from the Hill wanted to make their 3-0 slate a 4-0 one. Besides, my pitchfork, (traded my flute in on one used fork for this tussel) was itching, and my boys had posted a 120 points scored total to a puny 20 by opponents so far. I joined the long line of Demon-backers that started at N. S. C. and rode atop a convertible, flute in hand, (had girls, too) to the second annual Cenla game. After buzzing Alex we roared to Bolton Stadium and saw Rags and Company taking the field. They took the ballgame (I think), too, 12-10. The demons made no excuse for me to toot my horn (which I β 5 f h %β ' . β w Β n l v vr r y U ARTHUR LANCASTER JOHNNY EMMONS STATE FAIR Court House festivities didn ' t have anyway) until the second quarter, and then I just punched a few by-standers with my fork to satisfy my own greedy feelings toward them boys on the opposing team. Emmons scored on his fade-back-then-run-like-hell play, the one on which he scratched pay dirt in every game so far. With the count 6-0, Demons, we all settled back as the offense and defense teams alternated regularly in a see-saw affair. Tanner ' s and Lancaster ' s toes saw lots of action in booting over La. Col- lege ' s big line. Merrick Young, Tyrus Sibley, Sid Morrell, and Mac Carter added sparkle to the N. S. C. cause by tearing up Wildcat oval-toters, while Jack Huckaby became the fifth man in L. C. ' s backfield. (He literally tore the place up). But I tore my hair and chewed claws as a combination of passes and runs netted a tally for the Wilcats. Adding the extra point they went ahead 7-6. Finally Buddy Lancaster gathered in an Emmon ' s Special from his 45 and swivel-hipped it all the way. Davis ' kick was wide and the score stood 12-7, as the N. S. C. rooters went wild. After the kick-off the Demons got a few bad breaks and were in a hole. La. College shoved over a field goal to nudge up behind the Purple and White, 12-10. I raved and ranted. Coaches Turpin, Ledet, and Brown then pooled abilities to halt do-or-die drives by the game ' Cats. With minutes to play, L. C. was shoved back deep on their goal. Outstanding pass defense on the part of Nation, Davis, and Emmons nipped a final frantic pass attack as the time ran out with the score still for my boys by the wonderful tune of 12-10. Number 60 trying for 06 vidya, says Danos S T A T E Β£ FAIR fiUUitt |i Ittttlttt MAIDS Left to Right: Myrtle Ann Babin, Louisa Johnson, Marie Tilleux, Jo Ann Brantley, Queen Dorothy Olivier, Pat Marmande, Jeanette Pace, Julia McBroom, Marge Wh te (obscured from v.e.v Jinx β or whatever you call nine straight losses set my Demons down 15-7 before a heart-broken, purple and white tinted, east- stands crowd. N. S. C. fought just as hard and long as the Bulldogs but just couldn ' t shove across a TD on a couple of occasions. Your boy Pan, now voiceless from yelling, really strut his stuff for the annual State Fair multitudes. I was there in the Purple and White band and also beside hoarse cheer- eaders. We gave em hell β but it warn ' t ! Did it make? (yes) enough, as that darn Bulldog took me to the cleaners. Turpin ' s T confused the Techsters for three quarters, allowing Johnny Emmons to pass frequently and accu- rately behind good blocking. A see-saw tilt burst into pieces as George Sonny Pharis snatched an Emmons pass and streaked 30 yards for the lone Demon touch- down. Davis parted the goalposts to raise the score to 7-0. I swelled up ten sizes and played my best song on ye olde flute. Tech roared back, however, coming within one point of the Demons on a sustained drive of line plunges. Then with the tension mounting and me sitting on the edge of my seat, the Bulldogs scored again on a field goal posting a 10-7 figure. Woe! Later, after Demon drives fell through, the Techsters hit pay dirt again to sew up an unfortunate contest for an N. S. C. squad, v inner in four out of four previous contests. Maybe next year . . . huh? Run, boys, run! Chalk up a nice block for Mac. LAMAR COLLEGE ' I, l f t- BOBBY DAVIS SID MORRELL and chuckled while Danos, Huckaby, Morrell, Keaton, and company turned the Lamar backs every way but loose. But I brought out the flute again when a Card end snaged a Lamar pass and turned to lateral. He wound up feeding Boby Davis, who paced 45 yards for another marker. Bobby promptly followed up by splitting the uprights for the conversion and I swelled up to the tune of 19-0. After this everyone was in the act. Julius Robichaux smothered a Cardinal fumble. Black Mike Bellipani -shot a strike 23 yards to Cole posted 6 markers for my Demons. The Davis-Cole combo erased the six and posted 7. My favorite team closed out the contest with a 26-0 score and all subs in on the last shuffle. And I ' ll leggo of you! You leggo of me, I blew into Port Arthur astride ye olde flute feeling good. The two wins under my belt were as satisfying as a full N. S. C. meal (so they say). But even I could tell there was lotsa room for a Lamar Cardinal β and guess what β the Demons aerial game provided one of the same, making it three in a row, for me after a 26-0 fracas. I told Emmons to play way back for awhile, just to set the Cardinals up. Of course, it didn ' t surprise me when Johnny faded back, then sped around end nicely, and scored on a little 18-yard sprint. Emmons did it again with a story-book steal of a Lamar pass on our 6 and followed a covey of Demons 94 yards to pay dirt. Boy, was I tootin ' my purple flute then! I settled down Β Β«.Β i BUDDY COPE HAROLD TANNER I JACK HUCKABY A GEORGE SONNY PHARIS SOUTHEASTERN COLLEGE I visited the music department and ordered a new flute as soon as I got back from Shreveport and Tech. Mr. Towns gave it to me as I was board- ing the squad bus to Hammond. ' Course it was stiff β but it did okay. The Little Man with the Big Arm, Johnny Emmons, started the game off with a bang when he tallied on his favorite bootleg play. He had paced off 43 yards before the Lions knew what was happening. (But I saw him all the time even though I was eating Hammond Strawberries.) Davis converted and N.S.C. stood on the good side of a 7-0 count. Four minutes later the Lions piled five deep on a Demon bobble, un- corked two first downs and had a feller called Wilkins step over from the two. (This was very un-polite.) To add insult to injury, they added the extra point, knotting the score at 7-7. I was so mad I spit at the Lion football bench. Emmons, who was playing a swell game at quarterback, poled an aerial to Davis on the two where interference was called. Lancaster lunged at the double-stripe and came up with a T.D. I really tooted the Demon Fight Song as Bobby Davis chalked up the conversion to total 14 points for my N.S.C. lads and 7 for S.L.C. However, my song lasted only a short while as a long punt return plus some real line driving netted a touchdown for the Lions. Score, 14-14. Time was running short and the half was almost a reality. While climbing over a few souls to get a coke, I watched, jaw open, as Campos of the Lions scampered over to put them ahead 21-14. Later in the fourth period S.L.C. scored again to stay ahead 28-14. Standouts for the Demons were Danos, Huckaby and Harper. Get him, Sam! ,1 tJ I , r β I The conglomeration N RTH WESTERN ISS. SOUTHERN Red around end! LANCASTER I was all set for Miss. Southern. The Demons were ready, too, knowing Bubber Philips was Southern ' s mainstay. We also knew N. S. C. had some good boys, too. I was tuning up ye olde flute when I noticed the great crowd. Gosh, the Purple and White rooters were pouring in Demon Stadium. Everything was tense as a win over Southern would really be a feather in Rags ' hat. Davis whanged the kickoff deep in the Yellow and White territory to start the battle. From then on I figited with my flute. Mississippi scored once but a holding penalty nullified the tally. Later, Bobby Davis snatched in a Holmes ' pass during a Southern drive to quell that attempt. And I was rather proud of my boy Tanner, as he kept them Southerners at bay with a terrible toe. Elred Red Harp ignited his fleet feet into a 32 yard drive in the third stanza to start a Demon surge. It stalled on the four. Again my Purple and White men got the oval and Jackie Givens blasted a punt to the Mississippi one foot line. The Purple and White clad boys of mine, led by chunky Bobby McHalfey roared back only to have a pass intercepted and there they halted. By this time lil ' Pan was a nervous wreck. (I oughta know!) Another timely Givens boot and later Art Lancaster ' s runback of Bubber Philips ' return punt set the N. S. C. boys up for a possible play for a tally. sat close to the edge of my seat, anticipating anything. A flurry of passes by McHalfey to George Pharis and Merrick Young, and dashes by Red Harp rested the pigskin on the eleven. Bobby Davis tried an unsuccessful field goal as the ball went over on downs. With less than a minute to play, LeGras cocked back and hurled an aerial to Bubber Philips who clipped off the remaining yardage. Southern added the conversion and the score stood 7-0. It was all over but the shouting. Yours truly thought this to be a real heartbreaker as N. S. C. fought evenly with Southern all the way, down to the last minute and the stinging luck so we call it) of that man Philips. JACKIE GIVENS JL Things are tough up north! I swapped Dr. Duffy my flute for his fur lined ear muffs. Rags Turpin said that it would be cold for the Alabama tussle. True to form, the weather turned out freezing and we turned out on the short end of a heart-breaking count, 28-20. Led by Jolting Jack Jones, the Livingston State Teachers fashioned four touchdowns despite the efforts of freezing rain and a rugged Demon forward wall. Chunky Bobby Davis, Demon left half, almost stole the show as he scored two tallies and converted two extra points. One sparkling 85- yard scoring run was called back, thus ruining N.S.C. ' s bid for a tie ball game. One of Davis ' s scores came on a 35-yard pass from Bobby McHalf- fey. Big James Beck bulled over from the eight for the other marker. DAN POOLE NORTHWESTERN ALA.

I discarded my ear muffs from the Alabama game and settled down to welcome old grads fere for the home- coming festivities. It was swell seeing old friends and fami- liar faces, and they all prodded me tor tips on the N. S. C- S.W. tilt. Of course, I knew that it would be close, but I still gave my nod to ye Purple and Whiters. They came through as expected, taking advantage of 18 Bulldog bobbles, to fashion a neat 12-7 decision. This raised the reason record to five wins and four losses. Starting off slow, neither my Demons nor the Bulldogs could go anywhere. Both teams just felt each other out be- cause potential power was easily seen in the two crews. Little Joe Lancaster finally applied the heat to the Bull- dogs with two searing slashes. On his third stab at the red- and-white lines, Joe Price wiggled twenty-five yards for the initial touchdown of the game. Davis Cole failed in the P.A.I, attempt, so the score stood 6-0, Demons. I felt greai then as my favorite team was putting on a swell show. Again the tempo lapsed into a see-saw stage. South- western backs battered themselves against Pharis, D.

C. forward wall. Bone-jarring tackles (even heard in the stands) by these men from the Hill caused many of Southwestern ' s 18 fumbles. Meanwhile, Bobby Davis and M. D. Ray were totin ' a mean pigskin oftentimes sparking short drives. After the halftime ceremonies, Coach Turpin ' s boys (and mine, too) fought a determined Bulldog outfit to a standstill up into the fourth quarter. After capitalizing on some fortunate breaks, the Bulldogs shoved over a marker and the conversion. Little Pan, as well a s the N. S. C. rooters, perked up to the desperate position of our Demons and really tore our hearts out for a T.D. Frosh quarterback M. D. Ray came through when the chips were down, connecting with three striaght passes. The last one found Harold Tanner on the one foot line. Lightning-fast Bobby McHafey gobbled up the one foot and posted 6 points. At this point church wds out for the Bulldogs as the time caught up with them, and the game ended with my boys victors with the score of I 2-7.

Amid a flurry of passes, con- jured by M. D. Ray, a relatively new face in the line-up, the Demons utterly crushed a baffled Texas team. (I had a lot of chances to show off.) My now weary flute tooted strongly for the pitch- fork ' toters who prodded a 34-6 score from E.T.B.C. with the whole Purple and White squad getting in the fracas. I hadn ' t even warmed up a seat in Demon Stadium when Bobby Davi s paced off 26 yards for our initial marker, only two minutes after the kick-off. Having settled down, I again errupted into cheers as M. D. Ray found Harold Tanner all by himself and connected with a pass covering 40 yards.

As the second half started I rushed back only to see big James Beck and Bobby Davis commencing a drive. ' Course it ended up in a tally β Beck receiving the credit. Davis posted another P.A.T., and then kicked off. The Texans received that kick-off and finally put enough punch together for a T.D. Jackie Givens roared back 14 yards on a neat play to score N. S.

They met a number of different teams from all over the southern part of the country, including fives from Missouri, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and of course β Louisiana. The Gulf States Conference was a dilly this year with three or four powerhouses preying on each other. My Demons preyed on eight, and were nudged by eight crews, thus placing them in the middle of the GSC results. A relatively hot and cold team, they did maintain a 34 percent accuracy mark in the way of buckets.

I tooted on when Johnny Mc- TRACK Conathy and Johnny Buck decided to win! With McCon- athy throwing the discus, the javelin, and the shot β and jumping the high jump; and with Buck doing the vaulting, I really tooted on my horn. These two men really came through in many instances. But to mention them and to leave out such men as Buck Anderson, John Patten, and Dan Poole would be mad, because I tooted for them just as much. (Editor ' s note) This year ' s track sguad will be in next year ' s book, because of the length of time necessary to complete the process of making it ready to put in the book.

But, my boys haven ' t done so badly in conference competition with three wins and six losses thus far. As far as the season has progressed, only one team β Southwestern Louisiana College β has failed to be beaten by the Diamond Demons. Despite the loss of many of the stellar ball players, such as Al Nicosia and Johnny Emmons β who graduated and went to the Air Force respectively β the favorite team of yours truly have done remarkably well. I have seen that Demon Angel del loro hit in every game he has played in thus far to maintain an overall average of close to .500, and an average in conference play of .472. That ain ' t hay, eh? In addition, two other men are hitting over .300 β Bob Weaver who is batting .369 and Sammy Booras who is batting .303. Six of the games have been lost only by two runs or less. That ' s pretty good, but pretty good ain ' t good enough. By the time the rest of the season has gone by I ' m sure that my boys on the diamond will have shown that they can compete with the best of the teams in the conference.

Them Mississippians didn ' t like for ole Alma Mater to take all of those points while they only got 6.7 points. But, the fun began when we went over to Texas to attend the South- western Senior A.A.U. meet at Dallas. There we took three firsts and two seconds with a bunch of thirds and fourths to win that meet from the favored Texas University team, as we garnered 76.5 points. While we were beating them, even Texas A. and M. was left in the cold and the rain with a mere five points. There were eleven teams there, and none of ' em even came close to us!

The purposes of the Foreigner ' s Club are to improve the relations among foreign students, to determine needs and interests of these students, and to select and or- ganize activities by reaching every member ' s attitude toward life on the campus.

LOUISIANA Isn ' t this the best POTPOURRI You ever saw PRINTED BY BENSON PRINTING COMPANY NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE ENGRAVED BY SHREVEPORT ENGRAVING CO. SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA IN APPRECIATION In compiling the contents of the 1951 POTPOURRI many problems arose, and always there was someone to whom the staff could turn. The effort of publishinq this book rests not entirely upon the staff, but rather upon each and every student and teacher on the hill. It is for the many deeds whose sponsors will forever be anonymous that we of the I 95 I POTPOURRI staff wish to give our sincere thanks to, and for those persons who helped us in times of stress we address our thanks directly to them, as follows: The Shreveport Engraving Company β including Mr. P. E. Dozier, Mr. Bob See, Mr. Duck Zimmerman, and the many others of that firm who helped us, pushed us, laughed with us, and lastly, gave of their talent to us; Benson Printing Company β with Billy Benson, Jr., Dan Eadie, and all of their staff, without whose time, and interest, and personal touches this book would have been little worth looking at; Mr. Jack Sarphie, special representative of Nardis Sportswear of Dallas, whose help with the beauty contest insured us of a most delightful section in our book; Mr. J. C. Frog Guillet, Jr., the photographer of photographers, whose ideas and interest made up for many of our shortcomings; President H. Lee Prather and the other administrative officers, who gave us much-needed advice on numerous occasions; Dr. John Duffy, who was at all times the interested sponsor, helping at the right time β and lending us a steadying hand to help us over the mo- ments of doubt; And then to you, the student body, without whose support and activity the book could not have been a reality; And finally, to the numerous advertisers who responded generously, and whose firms or products you see represented on the following pages . . . Again we express our sincere thanks . . . THE STAFF STUDENT CENTE Tob
