VVithin the covers of our yearbook are scenes and descriptive accounts of classroom sessions and extra- curricular activities. Posed and candid snapshots will serve to recall memories of happy hours. Recorded herein are seasonal sports beginning with the championship football team and including basketball, baseball, and tennis. We have depicted the many activities of sororities, fraternities, and the numerous college-approved clubs and organizations. Featured in the IQSI annual are approximately two hundred fifty pictures of freshmen and sophomores. VVe point with pride to the section devoted to Campus Charm, wherein are found the girls who on special occasions have been honored for beauty, charm, and talent. ' The CATAMOUNT opens with the section honoring the faculty whose untiring eiforts will long be remembered: we close this volume with the pages familiarly known as advertisements, but without which this yearbook would be impossible. Volunteer staff members have given freely and unstintingly of their time and talents. Their reward is the satisfaction that their fellow-classmates find in this record of college days. May the memories enshrin-ed here remain treasured forever in the hearts of Potomac State's sons and daughters. MARTHA VVATSON, Editor 0- R b J 'll'-lim wywxxy ' P4 Q, y -ai .-- -gg e Honor -Q Mr. Raymond L. Dennison Growth and development of Potomac State School of VVest Virginia University are achieved by vision, elhcient planning, and tenacity of purpose. As manager of the School Farm since IQKQI, Mr. Dennison has achieved a noteworthy record: acres have been added, buildings have been erected, and the farm Ayrshire herd has achiev-ed national recognition. The faculty of the Agriculture Department. headed by Mr. Dennison, has grown to keep pace with student enrollment. In both the theory of the classroom and practical farm demonstration, Mr. Dennison has always striven to inculcate efficiency of workmanship, integrity of character, and high ethical standards. The Staff takes pleasure in dedicating the IQ-'SI CATAMOUNT to Mr. Raymond L. Dennison. Dr. Ernest E. Church Presidents Message The fact of change is one of the most changeless laws of life. This applies to institutions as well as individuals. From the easy going days of two decades ago, the disillusioning years of the depression, the bitter and trying years of World VVar Il, we have come to the years of constant preparedness, and perhaps undeclared war. Each of these periods has brought its problems to the campus. Iust when we were supposing that college as usual conditions were returning, we find new conditions and new problems induced by the national -emergency. The only sameness remaining is the resolution of students and faculty, on every college campus, to put their country's interest and welfare first. The change d-emanded by the current situation has already been reflected in total enrollment and in the type of enrollment. It has also been expressed in a spirit of uneasiness and unrest. lt is well to be reminded that we serve best when we avoid panic and continue to do well the job at hand. In the midst of these pressing and disturbing problems, we salute those organizations that maintain their excellent service to the college. I-Iigh on the list of these service organizations is THE CATAMOUNT. We salute the sponsor and the staff for perseverance toward their goal of giving us through the pages of THE CATAMOUNT a faithful portrayal of a good year on our campus. ERNEST E. CHURCH, President 4 Zvi-kllaff 5 Q'X'XN:vii5::1,, f f wwf' '61 Z 1 151 T Qclll S fl Sc-1 lf 'M 'Qin' L ' L' k P5 f' lf Tflljlirggsd ' jg 759 S' S lvfsf ylrl ze , It is agreed by those who are planning for the military and civilian defense of our nation, that in order to survive the present and future emergencies, we must continue our developments in the helds of the Physical, the Biological, and the Social Sciences. The first and second of these developments will be provided for in the classrooms and laboratories on our college campuses. The defense of our democratic ideas and ideals depends on teachings in the field of the Social Studies. Classroom discussions must be followed by campus and community practices which will make us mentally alert, physically strong, and spiritually sound. This thirteenth traditional CATAMOUNT has artisti- cally and interestingly recorded for us the social activities, organizations, and the personalities that have made college and you a signihcant part of our nation's plan. For this excellent yearbook, We are indeed grateful to able and loyal staljf and sponsors. the Zhi: the K. S. Mclilili, Dean Q fax Ihean hirklaml S. lVli'hei' Faculty LEONARD G. WITHERS, M.

It is the oldest national junior college sorority in the national College Pan Hellenic. Th-e aims of the sorority are to promote scholarship, to stimulate school spirit, and to enrich and broaden friendship. After a Progressive Dinner and an Informal Party held during Rush Wcrek, fourteen girls became Gamma pladges. In October, a formal pledge initiation ceremony was held for these girls.

Since both scholarship and campus leadership are qualifications for membership, election to this organization is a coveted honor. This year the fraternity resumed its activiti-es with ten members, this number aug- mented later by the addition of Ioan Connelly and Robert Iohnson, who were admitted to membership at the November meeting. The traditional activities of Sigma Phi Omega followed their usual course through- out the year, beginning with the presentation of the eleventh annual Know Your Organi- zations program at the Hrst convocation after the opening of the fall semester. The group again assisted ably in the dining room at the faculty reception to the student body. Prior to the close of the first semester an informal party was held in honor of three members. Donald Harris, Henry Oboryshko, and Betty Shook, who were completing their work at Potomac State School. The second semester is always a busy time for Sigma Phi Omega, for it is then that new members are selected and initiated, formally presented to the school at the Recogni- tion Day convocation sponsored by the fraternity, and finally honored at a formal banquet. This function held in the college dining room is one of the most brilliant events of the school year. In addition to these traditional activities, Sigma Phi Omega holds itself in readiness to serve Potomac State School at any tin.e and under any circumstances.

G. HORSE LOUGH Ioim U. NIAIDIEN It'DsoN Honors One of the greatest football teams in Potomac State's history ended the 1950 season with eight wins and one loss. Under the able leadership of Coach Lough and his competent assistants, Hodges and Maiden, a powerful line and a fast, hard-running hacktield was developed to secure new honors for the Alma Mater. An all-time record was established by scoring 273 points to 61 for the opposition. The Catamounts also shared a three-way West Virginia Intercollegiate Football Championship with Morris Harvey and West Liberty by maintaining a 1.000 average in Conference lplay. Potomac State 14, Glenville 7 The Catamounts battered their way to victory in the last minute of play in the curtain raiser on Stay- man Field September 16. The Pioneers scored first midway in the second period, but the Loughmen countered immediately when Lauer ended a 64 yard drive by scoring from the 3, tying the score 7-7 at half-time. Late in the fourth quarter, an opponents fumble was recovered on Glenville's 26. After Lauer and Matkowsky carried the ball to the 2, Oboryshko smashed off-tackle for the winning touchdown. Lauer ran both of the extra points. Potomac State 33, Baltimore City Junior College 0 The Cats romped to a decisive victory over BCJC September 23 on the home field. Lauer, Oboryshko, Walt Miller, and Burda spearheaded the victory by gaining 180 yards among them. Burda scored in the first q-uarterg -Lauer tallied twice in the second period to .make the score 19-0 at the half. Burda crossed the goal stripe in the third quarter fro.m the 12 after Demarest recovered an opponent's fumble there. Lauer raced across again from the City's 20 in the final canto. Lauer booted two of the extra points: Johnson converted once. Potomac State 14, Shepherd 7 The Hilltoppers avenged the 1949 defeat by out- playing the powerful Shepherd Rams before a large Homecoming Day crowd at Stayman Field Septem- ber 30. The first blood was drawn when De Luca snatched a blocked punt on the Rams' 32 and dashed to pay-dirt. Johnson converted. giving State a 7-0 lead at halftime. The Rams tallied in the third quarter to knot the score. The Cats showed real speed and stamina in the last five minutes of play by driving from midfield to the goal line. Lauer then smashed across on the fourth down for the winning score. Potomac State 44, Newport News Tech 25 In the first road game of the season. the Lough- men proved their ability to fight on foreign soil by drubbing Newport News Tech on the night of Octo- ber 6. The battle was a see-saw one for the first three periods. Burda scored twice, once after a thrilling 74 y-ard run, and Lauer slipped into pay-dirt once. Each time, however, the Techs counter-attacked, and State was on the short end of a 25-19 count at the close of the third quarter. Evidently the Cats became accustomed to the terrain and the bright lights, for they stormed back in the final period and marched through the opposing team as Grant took Richmond. A Newport back almost intercepted a Lauer pass, but Caldwell knocked the ball away and Perkins made a sensational driving catch for a score. Lauer climaxed a 65 yard drive by scoring from 18 yards out. A 30 yard Lauer to 'Caldwell pass added another tally. Allman made the final score by an eleven yard dash. Of the two extra points, Johnson booted oneg Lauer ran the other. Potomac State 53, Montgomery 0 The Blue and Gold eleven administered a crush- ing defeat to the previously unbeaten Montgomery squad from Bethesda, Maryland. The score was 27-0 first quarter and 47-0 at the half. With victory cer- tain, Coach 'Lough used the opportunity to give all his reserves a taste of action instead of trying to establish a new scoring record. Jim Miller, Burda, Sweeney, and Lehew tallied onceg Allman and Mat- kowsky scored twice. Johnson booted the five extra points. Potomac State 30, Concord 0 With vengeful hearts the Cats journeyed to Athens, West Virginia, October 21. They were out to put a damper on the Homecoming festivities of Concord, just as the Lions had on Potomac States celebration in '49 by a l-1-9 victory. The Loughmen took an 18-O lead in the first quarter and were never in danger. Lauer, Caldwell. and Walt Miller scored in the tirst period, and Burda and Caldwell tallied in the second and third respectively. State failed to make any points-after-touchdowns. Potomac State 19, George lYashington JV 22 The dream of an undefeated season was 'de- stroyed on Stayman Iield October 27 in the last three minutes of play. Late in the first quarter. a blocked punt bounced into end zone where a GW man fell on the pigskin for the initial score. Then the Wash- ingtonians received a State fumble on the Cata- mount's -12 and drove across to make the score l-1-0. ln the second period, a Johnson to Caldwell and a Burda to Caldwell pass were both carried across thc goal line. Johnson made only one of the extra points and State trailed 14-13 at the half. ln the third quar- ter, Burda found an opening and dashed 89 yards to put the Cats ahead 19-14. Lauer was then caught behind his own goal to make the score 19-lti. With third down and four yards to go for a score. a Lauer pass was intercepted and carried the entire length of the field. Potomac State 46, Salem 0 The -Hilltoppers snapped back from their first defeat to smash the Salem College eleven November 4. The game was played on a cold, rainy night in a sea of mud at Bridgeport. Matkowsky contributcd two touchdownsg Jim Miller, Burda, Lauer, Scott. and Horney added one apiece. Scott, Caldwell, Allman. and Graurich tacked on the extra points. Potomac State 20, Gallaudet 0 Coach Lough's proteges ended the season by lacing the stubborn Gallaudet squad from VVashing- ton, D. C. The opposing teams battled to a standstill until the latter part of the first half when Allman climaxed an 82 yard drive by plunging across from the one. Johnson added the extra point from place- ment, and State led 7-0 at halftime. In the final per- iod, Allman dashed nine yards around right end for another six-pointer: Johnson again tacked on the extra point. Then Kapushy intercepted a Gallaudet pass to put. State in scoring position. Graurich cov- ered the remaining 7 yards for the final score of the day, and the season. .
