SPIRIT FLARES ACROSS CAMPUS As C ougar f orce Hits opponents hard, iiZekf lights up and all cheer iiBig Red,i S pirit is something indefinable. It is just there . . . everywhere . . . all over the campus. Spirit makes college. It is the campus by day and by night. It is the events and activities. It makes ilBig Redl, a distinct campus in a metropolitan area. It offers much that is good; the laughter and warmth of spirit and another touch of fulfillment to college years. ilBig Redil is so many things . . . her spirit is felt and seen in so many places . . . the faces of the campus queens, the graduating seniors, the cheerleaders, the athletic teams. She is the tradition, ever present at the Bonfire, Homecoming, Songfest, and Frontier Fiesta, plus the big weekends . . . all these lend meaning to the living and vital expression, iispiritfl At Big Redli there is so much; the days are filled. Spirit is visualized in the stage-struck freshman, the pledge feverishly seeking to please, the author-to-be of the ligreat American novel? the shy young co-ed who is happiest in that realm that is called college life? As the seed of this university was once planted and nourished with care and grew strong through the years, so the spirit of liBig Redil reached new heights and flour- ished within the student body of the University of Hous- ton in the year of 1956-57. Because of this flare-up of spirit which had lain dormant so long, We of the 1957 HOUSTONIAN staff wish to acknowledge this growing, glowing flame by using as our theme iiSchool Spirit on the iBig Redl Campus?

Administration With policy set by the Board of Governors, and plans co- ordinated by the Chancellor and the President, administrators begin to manage University development and growth. Faculty members spend their time teaching both practical and tech- nical knowledge. C lasses The student body elects officers for the graduate, senior, junior, sophomore, and freshman classes. Here is individually pictured the student body of the University. Associations Here we record the achievements of organizations on ttBig 9 7, ' Reds campus. Among them are students In student govern- ment, religlous, social, service, and professional groups. F eatures In this section we relate that bit of ttBig Redh known as the extracurricular; and feature Miss Houstonian, the Vanity Fair beauties; also, those ttwheels, the ten Outstanding Students. Athletics The last section brings forth the triumphs and tragedies of ttBig Redtsh athletic glory; and follows the Cougar athlete from gridiron to tennis court. T0 HIM: A GRIDIRON DEDICATION It took a man with deep integrity, strong perseverance and a progressive attitude . . . a man whose life centers around what he teaches, who is willing to unselfishly sacrifice extra hours to build a good team and to build character as well. Amid confusion, he made calm. From despair he made light and from mediocrity he created a winner . . . he led the way to the glory of a Missouri Valley football championship. In the two short years he has been at iiBig Red, he has brought big-time football to the University. For once the city of Houston has been forced to admit that there are two college football teams in this booming metropolis. Because of the hard work and effort on the part of this young head coach to produce a team worthy of acclaim, the attendance at the first two home games more than doubled last yearis attendance for the same two games. Who else is more worthy of being the dedicatee of this 1957 HOUSTONIAN whose theme is school spirit. In our opinion William M. tBilD Meek is the epitome of this spirit that flared across the Cougar campus this year. rw yr?!

OLE, AND NEW BECKON STUDENTS TO BIG RED At left is the Roy Cullen Building where classes range from the very practical marketing on the main floor to piquant French on second. The first building to be built on the University campus, the Roy Cullen Building, was erected by the Cullen family in memory of their son. At top right are our engineers busily planning the inventions of tomorrow and studying the principles involved while in the modern Engineering Building on the north side of the University campus. At middle right we see the Home Management House where University co-eds live in ultramodern surroundings. Here, across from Law Hall, a group of home economics majors cook, plan meals, and learn through experience to be ideal housewives. On the bottom right is the tthubh of student activities, Cougar Den, a familiar sight to all students. On the main floor coffee, cards and talk are always available to students. Upstairs is the Religious Center, the lost and found, and the all-important Fiesta Association, Student Government, Pep Club, APO, and Student Activities head- quarters. LEARNED ATMOSPHERE PREVAILS OVER ALL At left is the gym where energetic students play intramurals and during registra- tion harassed students try in vain to successfully complete the big struggle that is known as registration. At bottom left is the Architecture Building. Here the architects form their unique plans from their combined imagination and ability. While plans for inventions and skyscrapers are being formed here. the psychology students who study the whys and wherefores of what makes people tick, busily compile case histories in the modern Psychology Building in the second picture. At the bottom right, the large Vocational Building, built because of local indus- tries, interest in future industrial students, trains would-be industrial scions. WEIR WWW amt?

The chancellor, the president, the deans, the professors. the studentSvthese are the focal points. The administration reaches out to handle the multitude of duties and situations . . . The chancellor, the president and the other administrators join with faculty and students in guiding the Universityis destiny . . . Theirs is an insight born of true understanding and delight in human nature and their job. Every position requires tact and understanding as part of the everyday routine. And these two qualities are an inherent part of their make-up. As the Board of Governors meet, as President Williams confers with the deans . . . The signals are called and the work of a great university is co-ordinated. Theirs is the responsibility for today; theirs must be the plans that will create tomorrow,s achievements . . . Beneath all the activities and excitement, these people make Houston 3 great University. More and more the academic aspect of the University is being stressed . . . And as the excitement of academic growth continues, the University of Houston is making an ever growing contribu- tion to the intellectual life of the state and the country . . . BELOW: Uri. W.

PRESIDENT WILLIAMS CALLS THE PLAYS 44 . . . . . N0 institution of higher learning has ever come so far so fast as has the University of Houston. As the story of the future unfolds. that statement will continue to hold true. l'During the relatively short time that it has been my privilege to be a party to this phenomenal development, I have watched this university grow in stature in every respect. Its faculty steadily has trained prestige in academic circles. Its student body has continued to make such strides in scholarly achievement. in athletic standing. and in general cultural attainment as to make fully justified the pride which its members feel in their alma mater. thhen one pauses to ponder the significance of the statis- tics involved as this institution continues to educate the tens of thousands of determined young men and women of this vigorous section of our nation. he begins to realize the enormity of the impact this University is exerting upon the cultural. educational, professional. and economic circum- stances of this area. t'When in the future old grads will thumb through this 1957 volume of the HOUSTONIAN: each may doubtless say. hi was proud of the University of Houston then.

Combining imagination with continued learning, the students in architecture are heading toward posi- tions as outstanding members and leaders in their profession and community. Students are instructed by persons active in the practice of the profession of architecture. This faculty is supplemented from time to time by outstanding architects serving as visiting critics. 27 Arts, Science Teach Readin9 Writin9 and 9Rithmetic Regarded as a basic unit of the University, the College of Arts and Sciences stresses broad and liberal education. From radio, English, and foreign languages classes and the areas of math and science come students well-prepared in their chosen profession. The program of the College includes extension of the studenth general and cultural education, pre-professional education, and preparation for advanced work on a graduate level. The Arts and Sciences seek to prepare a student not only intellectually in his chosen profession, but also for life itself. The CollegeTs end result is to develop a think- ing citizen for tomorrow?s world. The University is a member of the Southern Associa- tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the Associa- tion of Texas Colleges. The chemistry department is approved by the American Chemical Society. DR. R.

Located in the downtown Houston area, the School offers courses in business, English, psychology, sociology, history, and drama. Short courses in basic principles in managing commercial institutions are also offered. JAMES C. TAYLOR, Dean 34 Education Pro vides T0m0rr0ufs Teachers The youth of our nation are entrusted to their care and guidance. The responsibility is a heavy one. At the University. the degrees which may be obtained are the Bachelors. Masteris, and Doctor of Education. The College of Education gives its students experience in practical training, as well as theory. One of the features of the College is its teaching internship program in which the student spends a semester of his senior year in the actual classroom. Provision is made by the College of Education staff for the counseling of individual students to assist them in planning a systematic program of studies that contributes to their personal and cul- tural growth and prepares them in the professional field of their choice. Assistance is given students in helping them plan for a teaching certificate. Each student is able to plan a well-balanced program of studies suited to his personal requirements and competence in the profession of education; there- fore, his selection of courses may be drawn from the several departments of the College of Educa- tion. Graduate students have the additional oppor- tunity to enrich their studies with practical experi- ence gained through services and facilities of the College. DR ARVIN N. DONNER. Dean 36 Slipstick Squad Surveys University Campus Many University students associate the College of Engineering with the handful of potential surveyors who scatter their tripods and equipment over the University campus on sunny days; but the students enrolled in this college give intensive study to many phases of engineering. Students learn everything from measuring an electrical current to building a bridge. The curricula is designed to insure thorough training in the fundamental principles underlying engineering practices. Engineering is a creative profession contributing to the improvement of our social and economic order through technological advances and development. The strength of any nation and its continued prestige is wholly dependent on its ability to maintain leadership in science and technology. On entry into the undergraduate program, two years are spent in developing a fundamental mastery of mathematics and science. F. M. TILLER, Drnn 37 Curriculum Requires Serious-Minded Grads The modern trend is toward advanced education. advanced even beyond the bachelor degree status. Profes- sional degrees in education. engineering. and pharmacy are gained with stress on basic academic preparation upon admission. DR. H. J. SAWIN, Dean The development of scholarship and the achievement of a critical attitude toward the literature, as well as the contribution of original work competently presented in the form of a thesis, are objectives of the traditional graduate degree. Graduate students do intensified study in the field of their choice, and many of them find it is a big step from casual college courses to serious-minded graduate study. mrm 40 CHARLES F. HILLER, Dean Junior College Offers Both Liberal, Technical Education The University boasts one of the largest junior colleges in the state. To provide pre- professional courses and training for students desiring to limit college education to two .. ull':: u .ulw years and to make it possible for students to complete two years of training at home is the College,s purpose. One division of the College offers academic and pre-professional courses in Arts and Science, Engineering, and Business; while the other division offers courses in the technical and vocational schools. Each student is allowed to select his own program of study within the range of his capacities but is assigned to a guidance officer before registration. Special interest, aptitude and intelligence tests are adminis- tered. Although the student is primarily re- sponsible for the selection of his program, the Junior College requires in general educa- tion some prescribed courses in the humani- ties, sciences and social sciences. 4l Lawyers Administer I ndividual E thics The College of Law has an enviable record and operates with the full approval of the American Bar Association. Most im- portant among the Collegek accomplish- ments is the practicing of individual ethics by law students. The Law College occupies a wing of the air-conditioned M. D. Anderson Library, constructed in 1951. The location provides the College comfortable, stimulating and adequate accommodations. The method of instruction is designed to enable the graduate to practice law wherever the Anglo-American system of law prevails. NEWELL H. BLAKELY. Acting Dean 42 Skill Needed in Optometry Classes Precision and skill are needed in the delicate area of the human eye. These can only be learned through expert teach- ing on the part of the instructors and through diligent effort on the part of the student. Students at the University are privileged to be a part of the only College of Optometry in the Southwest. A two-year pre-professional program is designed to include the general course re- quirements for a bachelofs degree at the University, as well as the basic sciences required for the study of optometry. The professional program provides the theoretical and practical knowledge needed for general practice in optometry. 46 I- IN! Pharmacists Prescribe In Collegegs Labs The University,s College of Pharmacy was opened in 1947. Since then it has served its purposes well, supplying Houston and the surrounding areas with qualified pharma- cists. The graduates leave the College with the vast knowl- edge which only superior teaching and guidance can give. The College of Pharmacy holds membership in the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy and is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education as a Class A College. The prescription laboratory will accommodate fifteen students at individual, completely equipped prescription stations. In this, as in all other laboratories, the students receive individual instruction. The laboratory in operative pharmacy is completely equipped, and laboratory sections are kept below twenty in order to improve instruction. DR. N. M. FERGUSON, Dean 47 Be-low: A. RAY SIMS, Dean Technology Promotes Southwest Progress Training of highly skilled mechanics and technicians is more important than ever before because of the rapid indus- trialization of the Southwest. New develop- ments and higher standards of service go hand-in-hand with progress and change. For the welfare of the citizens of this region and for the successful development of business and industry in the Southwest, it is imperative that adequate training he made available for positions requiring high degrees of skill and technical knowledge. Technology is a vast field, covering Subjects from air-conditioning to wood- working. ART-FRONT: F. Browne, B. Lemmel, B. J. Duncan. BACK: J. W. Boynton, L. Collins, G. Schackelford, J. H.

The living spirit at t'nllego days guest quivkly 'ihl' interim hetwwn freshman bewilderment and m-nior sevurity is gone before one realizes it . . . Much is crowded intn college days at Big Rwi'hefmm fun at Fiesta to sleepless pre-exum nights . . . The senior has had experiencen lhut haw- given his life pu rpose. Being away from home has taught him to stand on his own-to make decisions and stand by them. The juniors and sophomores are a little wiser-both having passed from youth to maturity. How does it feel to be a senior? Surely each class thinks its feelings are peculiarly original as it takes that last walk toward the stage . . . The mellowed senior recalls registration-when the poor freshman was shocked by his lack of acquaintance with that mile-long form and his fumbling attempts to under- stand the cards incidental to education . . . The departing senior will make the freshman feel at home. but he knows that the real orientation of growth and thought is something subjective and cannot be com- municated. So the freshman is taught additional philoso- phies through four years of hard work-poiished by experience and guided by wise minds . . . He is the universityha reason for existence.

W N V xv; QWW A F ifteen Minute Show Doesn,t Tell the Whole Story Spectators see the Universitfs Cougar Band snap out on the field, work out the routine of a show, play the Alma Mater and march off. The appearance lasts up to fifteen minutes which doesn,t seem like a very long time; but for that length of time, or even less, it takes quite a hit of work and time on the part of many individuals. The idea of the show must be thought up, formations worked out and music chosen for the performance. The music must be played until it is known well enough to be played while marching. That,s no small task. The show must be walked through, marched through and finally done with music until it is letter-perfect. At the beginning of the season the band works hard to get the musicians marching, thinking and playing together; for each new season brings a partially new band with a tradition to up- hold, that of putting on a colorful and unique show and synchronizing precision movements with good band music. Thath quite a tradition. I32 Bobby Limh'r sc-rw's as drum major for the Cougar lmml. M a jorettes Twirl During Rallies FRONT: Jane Hendricks. head twirler. BACK: Kay Trimble. Melvaline Anderson.

Not so at the University. whose walls are too new to boast ivy. but whose mascot still is in her prime. One of the very first projects sponsored by Alpha Phi Omega Service fraternity was a fund raising drive to purchase a mascot to inspire the newly organized football team. Students, who chipped in coins and, oc- casionally, folding money for the project, also went into action when time came to name the newly-acquired Cougar cub. The winning entry observed in part that: She has to be fed. She hasta be watered. Shi hasta be cared for. Say the first three words fast and there is her name, SHASTA. That was October of 1947. Since then, Shasta has brought three cubs, Tom Jr., Shorty tnow de- ceasedi, and Haste into the world to help inspire Cougar gridders. She has attended nearly every University football game since 1947, traveling a total of nearly 35,000 miles. Members of the Cougar Guard, Alpha Phi Omega volunteers, who have cared for the hikittyh from the start, estimate that she is one of the nationis most traveled mascots. 7 3 Panhollenir Sets Policies to Avoid Chaos Realizing that when a large number of women try to do something simultaneously, chaos is inevitable. the sororities 0n EBig Red-SE campus formed the Panhellenic Coun- cil to determine over-all policy and to handle administrative matters of common concern to member organizations. Every sorority is an active member of the council, sending two delegates from the chapter. The presidency, a rotated affair, is held by Mary Beth Blasdel of Alpha Phi this year.

A Letter F rom Your Chi Omega Dear Mom and Dad. What a fabulous year with my Chi Omega sisters. So much to do and so little time. Started out the football season with three of our members as cheerleaders. Homecoming was wonderful with Norma Brady tsister Chi Oi as Queen. Thanksgiving was fun but work as we fixed baskets for those less fortunate. We really went old-fashioned this year. Had our tree decorated with popcorn balls and strings of cranberries. Everyone brought a toy which we later gave away. Our Owl Hoots tget togethers where every- body has a chance to talk things overt proved valuable and fun. Not all play, we kept up our usual high scholastic standard. The senior class chose our presi- dent, Barbara Hinson, as their vice president. Barbara was also one of the ten outstanding stu- dents this year. Spring arrived and we brought our can-can costumes so we could sing and dance in the Silver Moon Saloon. Wish there was time to tell you more, but have to rush now. Send money. Your loving Chi Omega Chi Omega and SAE trim their tree in the old-fashioned way. I46 gs J b t ' :9. k .7 J L .

Kappa Phi The Pi Kappa Phi fraternity was founded at the College of Charleston, in Charleston, S. C., on December 10, 1904. Since then it has grown to its present size of 51 active chapters. The active chapter was repre- sented at the National Convention in Philadelphia last August by Charlie Massey. Anthony Romeo, charter president of the Beta Nu chapter and recent graduate, rep- resented the alumni group. A fall feature of the Pi Kapps was the house parties after every home football game. The fraternity also placed three persons on the fraternity AIl-Star football team. They then closed out the season with a very successful Founders, Day Banquet. The annual Christ- mas party at the Rice Hotel, plus the much talked-of annual New Yeafs Eve party at the fraternity house, sent the old year out in a grand finale. The Pi Kapp brothers started the spring semester by jumping right into work on their Frontier Fiesta show, the French Quarter. They closed out the school year with a bang by having their second annual Rose Ball, and naming the TTRose of Pi Kappa Phi. Among the members of the fraternity is Lyn Del Davis, presi- dent of the Interfraternity Council, delegate to the National Interfra- ternity Conference in New York last December, and a leader in the Student House of Representatives.

THETA SIGMA PHI Inez Robb Took Reporting, T00 T heta Sigma Phi, national professional fraternity for women in journalism, was organized April 8, 1909 at Washing- ton University. Its aims are to unite women engaging in or planning to engage in journalism, to confer honor upon women who distinguish themselves in journalism or letters, to achieve definite standards in journalism and letters, to im- prove working conditions for women in these fields, and to inspire members to greater individual effort. Theta Sig greeted prospective members during the fall at a reception; six of the guests were invited to pledge. Four professional programs were held in the spring, in addition to the annual publicity clinic held in February for campus organizations. Other activities the group engaged in were stamping studentst names on yearbooks and donating books to the city detention home. Theta Sig also chose the ttOutstanding Woman of the Yearh at the University and presented a trophy to her. The highlight of the year was the Matrix Table, Theta Sigma Phits traditional banquet. Sponsored by women of the Press, this affair honored women of achievement in all professional fields. I95 Phi Delta Phi Encourages Scholarship ' ' ' ' s Cumminns.

PUBLICATHHS Editors Direct Operation, H OUSTON I AN Twenty-three years ago, the HOUSTONIAN was a yearly scrap- book. Today the HOUSTONIAN is not only read by 14,000 students at the University but is sent to numerous high schools and col- leges throughout the nation. Directing operation 0H0 for 1957 were Wilma Hartman of Houston and Gaye Zucht Seward of San Antonio. Editor Wilma Hartman started on the staff as a transfer from the University of Texas in her junior year, instituted the format in a magazine style for the 57 HOUS- TONIAN, drew layouts, wrote copy and headlines, and issued hundreds of photo assignments. Ability to-cope with work in each department made Associate Editor Gaye Zucht Seward a wel- comed asset. Staff member for three years, she co-ordinated the exacting details which lent to smooth operation in the feature and organizations, section. 209 HOUSTONIAN Art wnl'k by Staffer NiCk Lamne sparkwl the nlix'ision pages of the book. Art work carrying the yearbook theme changed to design; Lela Abravanel worked out the details. News Service photographer Bob Collins did all the shutter snap- ping on the administration and faculty; also, spent time shooting the color division page in the athletic section. Sports editor Richard Brumley contacted photographers for action shots. At midyear, he completed the section on winter sports. M agazine Style F eatured in HOUSTONIAN Petite Barbara Vann checked and 111arked more than Freshman Virginia Walker helped class editor. Staffer Sallie Darwond filed photos for the 1600 Indrvldual photos for the class sectmn. Barhara Vann, in typing and layout for this editors. helped to clear up many odds and sectron. ends. The 1956 Publications Banquet had hardly ended when plans began for the 1957 HOUSTONIAN. Research in the yearbook library plus trips to two other universities created some ideas for the yearbook. There were long hours of hashing and rehashing of ideas by the editors; finally the format and theme emerged, something dif- ferent for ttBig Red? The new book was to express a greater emphasis in photography and less on copy and art work. All efforts began to bend in this direction. Registration called for taking Class pictures. When it was all over, more than 1600 pictures had been snapped. A new building was erected next to the Journalism Building for the HOUSTONIAN during the year. In the fall, staff members took time out from the production side of their work to co-ordinate the Vanity Fair judging and carry out the details of the Out- standing Students, selection. As the final deadline in April drew near, the HOUSTONIAN Staff spent many long evenings preparing final copy and page proofs. The work was not over even after the book had gone to preSS. Arrangements had to be made for distributing the HOUS- TONIAN when it made its appearance in May. 2Il 1 x HOLISTONIAIXN HHHI HHI. -!

David Green, Cougar advertising manager, saw to it that the Cougar carried a large percentage of ads. Feature editor Charles Aycock wrote and edited copy for all sections 0f the paper, gathered more data than many realized. Aleene Rednick of the advertising staff sketched many of the mats for ad use. THE ClilICA-Xli Staffers work at news desk checking headlines, doing page makc-up. Photographer Gene Yee was kept busy shooting all the major student activities for the paper. Cougar staff reporters made the typewriters chatter in the paper's newsroom. The clicking typewriters forced desk men to hold their ears while telephoning.
