Interesting Geography Marks Southeastern Oklahoma TUSC and NASA official enter the Administration Building to attend a meeting in the conference room at Southeastern. NASA Facility Attracts Visitors To Southeastern Campus r The creation of a Technology Use Studies Center on the campus prompted an extra urge of activity and at- tracted several visitors to Durant and Southeastern State College, The new center began operations on the Southeastern campus as a result of a contract between SSC and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The University of Oklahoma ami Oklahoma State University are cooperating in the project. Two full time on-oampus employees, Lee Zink, special assistant to the director; and Robert Dillon, technical director, arc directly involved with the operation of the center. Dr. W. N. Peach, Oklahoma University was ap- pointed as the director and Dr. Richard W. Poole serves as associate director. The mission of TUSC is to gather benefits of space research and pass them on to area residents, primarily industrial manufacturers, who can use these innovations. Another function is to make economic surveys of the area to determine what is needed to increase the economic growth rate of southeastern Oklahoma. Along with inspection visits from James E. Webb, NASA administrator. Congressman Carl Albert and Senator Mike Monroney visited the center early in its existence to assist in its introduction to the area. Dr. W. N. Peach was appointed to the post of director of the local center. With visiting NASA official George Simpson, left, is Dr. A, E. Shearer.

Southeastern Meets The Full Challenge Carolyn Patterson sings un aria from “Die Fleder- maua” at a college musical presentation. The new arena theatre on campus provides a natural setting for such productions. Governor Henry Bellmon talks with President A. E. Shearer before commencement exercises, Oklahoma Governor Speaks At Graduation Exercises Parking meters don't graduate at Southeastern. They merely clock periods of time and flash a “lime expired” naming. When students run out of time, they do graduate. But the parking meters just stay here.

Campus Blends Buildings Seats built into I he front of the new book exchange are both functional and comfortable. Southeastern And Trees I An old bench in front of the classroom building is one of the best-known landmarks on the Southeastern campus. Under one of the campus’ largest trees, it is a perfect place for a meeting or for studying a few minutes between classes. The Library at Southeastern is one of the most attractive and functional structures on campus. Harold Wright and Nikita McKinney meet in front of South- eastern’s newest dormitory for women. It is located just north of Hailie McKinney Hall. SOUTHEASTERN’S ADMINISTRATION BUILDING Year-Old Administration Building Takes On A Dominant Role On Campus A network of sidewalks ties the year-old structure in with ,the rest of the campus.

Shearer assumed the post of president of Southeastern State College in July, 1952. He was promoted to the presidency after serving as dean of die college for 14 years. The physical facilities at Southeastern have grown at an unprecedented rate during his tenure as presi- dent, an effort that should earn him the title of “The Builder. Three new buildings were opened on die cam- pus during a year’s time—at the beginning, in the middle, and at the close of the 1963-64 school year. In addition, several other facilities on the campus have been completely remodeled. Yet, physical facilities relate only one phase of Southeastern’s growth. The standards of ex- cellence that are increasingly demanded hy to- day's technical world are met with enthusiasm hy the veteran school administrator and his staff. Timely projects on the campus reflect the school’s concern for Lhe present as well as the future. Economic Opportunity programs and the campus Technology Use Studies Center, spon- sored hy the National Aeronautics and Space Ad- ministration, are evidences of Southeastern's mul- tiple approach to education. Dr. Shearer’s concern and enthusiasm for these programs stem from his basic approach as an administrator—“I believe a school should solve problems. If inquiry creates new ones, we must Dr. Shearer poses with the first lady of the Southeastern campus, help solve them, too. Mrs, Mildred Shearer.

Election Year Stimulates Campus Politics Senate and Presidential elections held during the fall of 1964 helped stimulate campus activities when South- eastern opened its doors in September. The Goldwater Johnson race was not as controversial as the Fred Harris-Bud Wilkinson campaigns. The Young Democrats Club—orga- nized at SSC in 1958—and the Young Republicans’ Club—organized this year—held organized debates and in- vited guest speakers to the campus. The most popular speaker, according to the number of persons attending, who addressed a campus audience was Jack Ging, television star of the “Elev- enth Hour” series and former football star for Oklahoma University’s Bud Wilkinson. When the votes were counted, die democrats had won a landslide victor)' in the presidential race and Fred Har- ris scored an upset win over the popu- lar Wilkinson, The formation of the Young Republicans Club marked the first effort to gather formal reixignition for the party as a campus activity. Fred Harris, successful campaigner for the U.S. Senate, had the full support of the Southeastern Young Democrats’ Club. Eleventh Hour” star Jack Ging addresses the student body in an appearance at Mont- gomery Auditorium. One of the highlight of the fall semester at South- eastern is electing it. ? Ten Pretty Girls.

After fraternity and sorority teas and smokers, celebrants attended a dance with music by Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs. SPORTSMAN CLUB An event important to the Southeastern student body as well as visiting alumni was the crowning ceremonies recognizing the 1961 Football Queen. The crowning cere monies occurred at the halftime of the Southeastern-Cen- tral grid clash Novemlter 7. Kelly Me Cork Ic and Rebecrah Ann Kilpatrick almost stole the show as the two youngsters led the procession onto the field at the 50-yard line. Kelly served as crown l earcr and Rebecrah was flower girl for the ceremony. Jo Lyn Brandenburg, Oklahoma City, was chosen foot- ball queen by the Southeastern football team. Attendants were Linda Zavodny, Perry, and Barbara Clure, Okla- homa City, Escorting the queen was team captain Clyde Smith, senior linebacker from Carrollton, Texas. Escorts for the attendants were Walter DcPew, senior center from Beaver, and Boh Wilmoth, senior and all-conference end from fdahel. The queen received a traditional crown and also a football helmet from Captain Smith. Earlier iti the day, the queen and her attendants rode in the homecoming parade that wound itself through down- town Durant.

Jerry Shipp, former Southeastern basketball great, was honored December 7 in campus ceremonies sponsored by the college and the Durant Chamber of Commerce, The 6-foot, 6-inch eager was the captain and high scorer for the United States 1961 Olympic team in the Tokyo Games-. His Olympic triumph marked his retire- men! from active playing and capped an athletic careti that dated back to high school at Blue, Oklahoma. Shipp was warned to All- Oklahoma Collegiate honors three tunes at Southeastern Statp College and earned AAU All-American honors twice while playing for the Phillips 66crs. He has been named to the Helms Foundation Hall of Fame. On the SSC campus. Shipp wrote one record into the hooks that still stands. During his junior year in 1958 he scored 54 points in a single game against Phillips University. During the recent Olympics, the blonde ea- ger pushed 112 points through the nets dur- ing the nine-game slate at Tokyo lo lead U5. scoring, He was the game's top scorer in four of the nine games. The former Southeastern eager played a more important defensive game in the finals against Russia, however, than his 10-point of- fensive effort. He was given the assignment of guarding Yuri Voinov, one of the Soviets top scorers. Shipp, with superh defensive ploy, held the Russian ace to two points while the U.S. went on to win the finals 75 59. Campus Honor Even before the Olympics though. Shipp was a veteran of international basketball He has played in 18 foreign countries arid was the leading I ,S. scorer in the 1963 Pan Amer- ican Games and World Tournament held in Brazil. At the banquet honoring Shipp, his high school coach, I. W. Brown, preceded South- eastern’s Bloomer Sullivan and Phillips 66ers Bud Browning to the speaker's rostrum. All three coaches referred to Shipp as one of the most dependable players they had coached in their careers. Henry P. Ilia, coach of the 1961 Olympic team, could not attend the celebration. Members of the Durant Chamber nf Com- merce presented Shipp with a set of matched luggage near the end of the program.

Rival a Circus Added to the academic chal- lenge of campus life is a brand of fun that belongs uniquely to the college student. The Southeastern student pursues his own brand of fun with a gusto and a taste that is as variable as his pastimes. The same collegian who rides a hull on Sunday afternoon may at- tend a community concert program on Monday evening. Regional ac- tivities, such as water skiing on nearby Lake Texoma are as much a part of campus life as an evening session with a textbook or a term paper. And the student is exposed to a good measure of culture. It is natural that students and campuses are attracted to each other. The art department’s puppet show provided some unusual entertainment for Southcasterners. Erie Hawkins dance routines were new, unusual experiences. Excitement was high during this basketball battle between Southeastern and OBU, The Savages went down to the Bisons on their home court in the rivalry game. The cheerleaders take advantage of time outs to lead yells and enjoy the game among other Southeastern fans. Two coeds, Chele Phillips and Jo Jean Jones, began cheerleading second semester.

But most schools are more than willing to take on this extra function while meeting their academic demands. Southeastern State College is no exception. A whole atmosphere that is unique and special in its own way spreads over a college campus. Paint and mor- tar work may look somewhat parchy at times but a col- lege has a thousand ways of looking attractive. Whether it is seen through the eyes of a student, fac- ulty memberj taxpayer, or a child, Southeastern’s cam- pus has this special atmosphere that is the campus’ own. A high-level view of the Administration Building is one of the. prettiest scenes on the Southeastern campus. Two young boys find a Southeastern football workout more ex- citing than scenic. Arctic Blast Chills Southeastern Campus Southeastern State College—-along with several other Oklahoma schools—-finally found out that win- ter had arrived. Only Southeastern Oklahoma’s mild winter failed to show its cold side until late February when an Arctic blast found its way into the country of the Red River basin. Oil the afternoon of February 23, just before the Southeastern-East Central basketball clash, warm southerly breezes met the cold blast of air head on. The resulting freezing rain provided some pretty scenes on the campus as the ice was caught by the trees, fences, and grass. Students wandering between classes the follow- ing morning found some rather slippery walking sur- faces. They also discovered that the beauty of the ice had not melted with the dawn and that many beautiful scenes were available just for the price of a glance in almost any direction. A street light across from he girls’ dorm spins an eerie web of light during the February ice storm. A special translLicence shines in the ice-trimmed trees as ciear skies begin a tha from a late winter storm that made the campus as slippery as it was beautiful. One of the most impressive and mood-setting scenes during the “freeze” was the frigid pecan tree in front of the administration building. Although many area schools cancelled classes due to the ice, Southeastern students were not so fortunate. Studente. buildings tree , and ice form an interesting, though cool, combination during the late winter ice storm that roared through the campus in late February. The freezing weather was the only “bad blast of cold air the campus received in an unusually mild winter.

Head Coach Thomas Coach Boh Thomas’ grid team made its most signifi- cant mark in the conference this season although the Sav- ages faltered as the campaign dosed. A young team, Lhe Southeasterners will field another scrappy team next year and could regain their role as the dark-horse pick in die always lough Oklahoma Collegiate Conference race. Thomas said, as the season ended. “It is regretful that we slumped so haclly in our last game. It should serve to remind us that we must start earlier and play longer if we want to pick up any honors next season.

Jones was the third-ranked in SSC’s individual offense race. He gained 134 yards in 110 carries over the ground and caught 21 passes for 221 yards and three touchdowns. When play began this year, three athletes vied for the starting role at rjunr! back. Bobby Carpenter, junior, landed it hut was pushed hard by freshn Jerry Mitchell and sophomore Mike Barnes.

Curtis Pittman, left, ties a Northeastern eager while chasing a rebound. The Savages avenged an early season loss by downing the Redmen 60-15. As the 1964-65 cage season was in its final stages, the Southeastern basketball team still clung to a remote chance of a berth in the NAIA tournament at Kansas City. Oklahoma Baptist University, after edging the Savages 76-70 in the Southeast- ern fieldhouse in mid-February, had the conference crown tucked away. But South- eastern was in a four team deadlock for the runner-up position with Northeast- ern, Central, and fcangston. Yet, in spite of Southeastern disci- plined play, the ?64-?65 season was a dis- appointing one for the Savages as they finished the year with a 12-12 Tecord. The mark hegan plummeting early in the season when the Southeastern crew man- aged only four wins in its first dozen games. The travel-weary Savages had only twro home appearances in the first half of their schedule. On February 5, the Savages had a brief respite when they dumped the league-lead- ing Central Bronchos 47-45 to remove the Edmond team from the Oklahoma Col- legiate Conference spotlight. The mid-sea- son surge was thwarted the following eve- ning though as a fired-up Southwestern team came from hehind to edge the Sav- ages 63 62 in a clash at Weatherford. Close games such as these made the con- ference race its tightest show in recent yeaTS, Pittman. 1 5, takes a close aim at a free throw in Southwestern’s gymnasium. Brisk Action, Close Play Describe Cage Season Coach Bloomer Sullivan talks strategy with his Southeastern cage team during a time out at Savage Fieldhouse. Gene Wilmoth, 55, leaps high In add a pair of points to South eastern’s score in a conference clash at Weatherford. After leading throughout the game, the Savages were finally overcome by Southwestern who won in the last mioute 63-62. “Now Get Out There and Play Defense” Halftime talks are perhaps the most traditional of institu- tions which revolve around collegiate athletics. Coach Bloomer Sullivan, in his 28th year at Southeastern State College, has done as much to color the halftime talk as any cage coach. Compiling a 62p-202 won-lost record over the years, the vet- eran coach has formed some definite ideas about baskethall— winning basketball in particular. Sullivan, a blunt man on and off the cage floor, says, “Win- ning is the result of hard work. We coach as if our players were only average. If they are better than that, we will be bet- ter because we wTork harder.” “We also operate with the idea that most teams themselves so we work hard to see that we do not defeat our own purpose. But one of the most basic beliefs of Sullivan is the develop- ment of the character of competition. He has often noted that athletic teams, to be successful iu any sport, must possess the character of competition. “It is up to us as coaches,” he said, “to see that our team develops this characteristic if we want to win.” Though he has never been directly involved with the Olympics, two Sullivan-coached players have significantly influenced this event in recent years, Warren Womble coached the 1956 team and was assistant coach in 1960. Jerry Shipp was the captain and top U.S. scorer in the 1964 games in Tokyo. Recognized as a coach of good defensive basketball, Sullivan also implements one of the most versatile offenses in basketball. Southeastern teams can operate from any one of a half-dozen different offenses to constantly change the tempo of the game. A typical moment—Coach Bloom- er Sullivan gesturing toward the court during a halftime discussion in the Southeastern Slate locker room. Southwestern coach Jerry Jobe takes a fast walkout after a heated talk with Sul- livan and an official at Bulldog Field- house. The frustrated Jobe lost the argu- ment hut later won the game, Sullivan’s sound coaching has long encouraged such frustration by rival Oklahoma Collegiate Conference coaches. Coach Sullivan and Assistant Coach James Bowers discuss first half mistakes with the cage team in the Southwestern dressing room at Weatherford. Two-thirds of the Southeastern schedule is always set up to be played “on the road.” Tn play away from home that often, a team must, according to Sullivan, play “heads up ball.” “A winning basketball team must have the ability to change with the times, not only from year to year but from minute to minute as things develop on the floor.” Mike Martin, Southeastern forward, finds two-points hard to tome by in a clash with loop champs, Oklahoma Baptist University. Ai Tucker, OBU’s outstanding pointmaker, puts his shoulder into his defensive effort. The Baptists won 76-70. r Southeastern’s Bid For Conference Honors Slowed By Mid-Season Losses Wayne Cobb.
