You would ad just your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons. Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing. Yet the timeless in you is aware of life ' s timelessness, And knows that yesterday is but today ' s memory and tomorrow is today ' s dream. And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space. But if in your thought you must measure time into seasons, let each season encircle all the other seasons, And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing. 755346 -• Vi r m.: .

It is also a time for Reflection, solitude, and planning for the next two hundred years. FIX PITT, tiKE B0£1NG FiXcD Tn.c PPT 1 1 1 uTiiTITT Sa One will long remember the rush of the football team onto the field for the first game of the season, the roar of the crowd, the Pitt game, the selection of Mr. and Miss Mountaineer, a brisk walk to classes on a winter ' s morn, the excitement of a skater ' s train, or the peacef ulness of playing f risbee on the Mountainlair plaza. 10 Whirling, rwirling, swinging, singing: They ' ve rediscovered square dancing. In pioneer days dancing played a big part in the lives of the settlers. Square dancing, browsing among the b{X)ths and exhibits, testing one ' s dart throwing skill, and enjoying some good ol ' time f iildling were a few of the events offered during Mountaineer Week. 12 A look at the n ew with an eye toward the old can deliver a provoking message in this year of history. Contrast the clothing habits of present day students with the Priscillas and Zacharys of days gone by. Transportation and pastimes have changed also, and so have dance and music. As a matter of fact, the whole business of going to school has undergone vast changes in the history of our country. Governor and Mrs. Arch A. Moore visit WVU for the Homecoming activities. 13 14 America has come a long way in 200 years . . . from a loosely knit group of 13 colonies carved out of a wilderness to the most prosperous country in the world. And, we ' ve made a lot of contributions to mankind in the process. So what that our forefathers ' Great American Dream has yet to be fully realized. Few dreams are ever completely fulfilled. If they were, we ' d have no reason to keep on striving.

It ' s a time to adjust to the hectic rush of University life. The sophomore and junior years are times to build one ' s self confidence, become aware of one ' s expectations and lim- its, gather new and lasting friend- ships, and sorting out one ' s direction and goals for his life. In the SENIOR year, you have adjusted to your sur- roundings and have created a pattern of living much different from any past or future life style. Now that you know who sells the best pizzas and the coldest beer, have struggled through pre-registration and add drop periods till it ' s no longer a strug- gle, have established a circle of friends who will stick with you through all the partying and the all- nighters, have become involved with your school and know your instruc- tors, know when to avoid the down- town traffic jams, know which courses to take and not to take, know ' about the towing companies, the parking tickets, and the safe places h to park, found the ideal college apart- ment. It ' s time to leave, graduation. ., No more 8 am or 7 pm classes, no longer will you drive to field place- ments, no more all-night cram ses- t sions or finals, not having to move every four to eight months, and the t times of loafing in the Lair, dodging traffic at Grimland ' s Island, and eat- ing at the local hamburger place has ?come all TOO suddenly to an end. .The cloudy realization that your one - long time dream has become a reality. . It ' s a time to say good-bye to friends you ' ll never see again and to seriously begin looking for a job. It ' s a sad happy time filled with hope.

First, the fact that you ' re in col- lege and away from all strings attached at home. You usually go through your wild streak your freshman year and later settle down; but some never do. You must adjust to living in a totally different environment; either a dorm or an apart- ment. You become accustomed to your classes and learn the tricks of the trade of how to get around the rules of the Uni- versity. It doesn ' t take long to learn what classes are cake and which ones that are hard; either by personal experience or by of mouth. It depends if you live within walking distance if you have to cope with the problems of transponation and wonder- ing how to get to class on time. If you drive, you have to get to the Lair early or wait in line for an hour to park your car. If you are not careful, the towing syndi- cate will take your car away when you have collcaed enough unpaid tickets. We are so fortunate that we can depend upon the PRT. It only works, of course, when you ' re late for class and after waiting fifteen minutes, a car finally arrives and you squish on to one of the cars. After classes, one may go to the plaza, rela.x with some friends, throw a frisbee. or watch the dogs chase each other. Morgantown is a winter wonder land. You wonder how to walk down a hill without slipping and rolling down it or how to drive your car on a sheet of ice and snow. Of course, everyone enjoys a good snowball battle and sleigh riding. The more experienced skiers have their favorite weekend hide away. The weekend for ' WVU starts Wed- nesday night to celebrate that half the week has passed. In between all of this you study and cram for tests. Before you know it Finals have arrived. A time for all nighters, crammers, headaches, and saying good-bye to friends; some for the summer and some forever. Last but not least, packing all one ' s belongings and moving out. Funny how much one can accumulate during the year. After the rwentieth trip to the car you will wonder where all of the stuff came from. But such is the life of a WVU student. Anita Weincr, Section Editor 67 Dorm Life Dorm Living; Living in a dorm is quite an experience; some good and others . . . You have to get accustomed to living away from home; adjust to your roommate which is not always an easy process. Your RA can make life comfortable, enjoyable if you have an understanding one or make life seem like hell! One thing for sure and that ' s the dorm is rarely boring. One can always find a water fight, dirty magazines, a broken vending machine to kick and swear at or a friend to kick and swear at. Your friends are around and have something to drink or smoke. If you want to try something risky, bring up a keg and do not invite the RA to participate in the drunken brawl which soon follows. ■J ftl ?.- :.

In Morgantown finding an apartment is always a has- sle. One must cope with landlords and prices that coincide with living in either luxurious or dirt cheap apartments. But, there is nothing better than after a hard day of classes when you go home to your bungalow and head for your favorite chair, prop your feet up on a cluttered coffee table with beer cans, dishes, stale munchies left over from the all-nighter and then you hear your roommate yell, It ' s your turn to cook dinner! Yet, off-campus living has its advantages, quiet place to work, or party and you have your own personal property. Oh! Such is the price of the good life. 71 How to Get to Class . . . 72 The West Virginia University- Morgantown Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) System is the first of its kind in the world — one of the few fully automated mass transit systems that truly gives its passengers a ride into the future. PRT is controlled by a system of computers with no vehicle operators or ticket takers. During rush hours, the cars leave the stations on a computer-arranged schedule. During off hours, they work just like an elevator — push the button and your personal car will arrive. And unlike your private car, PRT vehicles take care of themselves after you reach your destination.

Everybody slips and slides either on wheels or on foot. But that ' s only one aspect of the snow in the university town. There is nothing more beautiful than on a snowy night to walk in the moonlight and see the snow sparkle and glimmer like a sea of diamonds. What could be more fun than to go out with a group of friends to sleigh ride — on inner tubes, garbage bags, cafeteria trays, or if you are lucky, a sleigh. ' It ' s great to regress to your childhood and have a good old fashioned snowball battle. 92 93 94 :. 4 .

The Agency Fair was coordinated by two social work students, Elizabeth Evans and Patricia Horst (pictued left to right in the picture top left on this page) under the auspices of the PDC. The aim of the Agency Fair was to educate the public to the social services available to the community in the Monongalia County area. The Fair was held at the Mountaineer Mall; the booths were manned by agency personnel and social work students doing their field placements at the respective agencies.

There are a variety of different con- certs students can attend, from Wet Willie to Bach concerts performed at the CAC. The sf eakers run the gamut from the white witch, Sybil Leek, to A. J.

Anita Weiner, Section Editor 115 WVU CONCERTS: Fleetwood Mac FLEETWOOD MAC didn ' t enjoy playing at the Coliseum, according to post-concert remarks made by their road manager, but their performance certainly failed to show it as the Brit- ish rock band captivated a crowd of pre-Thanksgiving University concert- goers. The group displayed a thor- oughly professional demeanor throughout their show, although the band felt that the Coliseum ' s size and structure was unsuited to Fleetwood Mac ' s musical style. Eileen Smith OPPOSITE PAGE: AMERICA and ERIC CARMEN: The music of America and Eric Carmen reverber- ated through the Coliseum and a cap- tivated crowd experienced an evening of rock. The Pop Art Committee had a slow start this year in booking top name acts; but near the end of the year they surprised us with America, Eric Carmen, Billy Joel, and The Out- laws. As is typical in university life, one must wait in line for hours to get the good tickets and or just obtain tickets.

He was accompanied by no one other than his fans, several of whom sang along. They knew ALL the words. Prine ' s style lies somewhere between Bob Dylan and Kris Kristofferson, with a helping of country twang added. And like them, his voice will never be called melodic. But it ' s a strong voice and it never faltered; he handled his acoustic guitar masterfully. He sang everything from Paradise, his anti-strip mining song, to Grandpa Was A Carpenter and Everybody, a conversation with Jesus, from which he concludes that everybody needs some- body that he can talk to. His versatility and genius were reflected in his ability to entrance his audience with the moving, pensive Hello In There, a groping poem about old people ' s loneliness, a few minutes after they had laughed along with his raucously humorous Dear Abby. Sidney Bell. CHARLIE DANIELS BAND per- formed at the WVU Coliseum with Wet Willie to an enthusiastic group of cheer- ing students as exhibited in photograph below. Charlie Daniels and the members of his band may claim to be just a bunch of long-haired country boys, but they present some exceptionally fine Tennes- see mountain-grown music that enthusi- asts from the Appalachians to the Rock- ies can appreciate. The group ' s performance reached its zenith when Daniels got out his magic fiddle and the band swung into The South ' s Gonna Do It Again and the per- ennial goodie, Orange Blossom Special.

From the opening strains of We ' re Gonna Have a Real Good Time Together to the final ones of My Generation encore, Patti Smith captivated a sell-out crowd in the Lair Ballrooms. Intensity is the word. Patti Smith performed with a phys- ical, emotional and sexual intensity others could only dream of matching. To the simple, primitive but powerful three-chord rock and roll of her band, she moved around the stage — fists pounding air, hips undulating — diz- zily spinning in an often uncontrolled frenzy. And the energy flowed. It poured forth from her flailing tooth- pick frame and poised lips and viciously thrust itself onto the audi- David Singlenton Wishbone Ash WISHBONE ASH took a few bruises a while back when lead guitarist Ted Turner made his exit in search of greener pastures.

I ' m very versatile . . . says it all for Gypsy. This delightful production, performed at the Concert Theatre of the Creative Arts Center (CAC), is comic, quasi-tragic and a fine evening of musical and dramatic enter- tainment. The story of Gypsy is set in the years 1921-36. It revolves around Rose, a stage mother to end all stage mothers. Rose wants to make her daughters stars. She glorifies her daughter June and pushes the no-talent Louise into the back- ground. When June elopes, Rose turns her attention to Louise. Louise is Rose ' s last hope to propel one of her daughters to the stardom that she always wanted, but never had. Rose refuses to believe that the heyday of Vaudeville is over. When the show falls on hard times, she is forced to book her daughter in what she considers the lowest of theatres — the burlesque house. It is there that Louise makes her monumental decision and takes her first step to fame as Gypsy Rose Lee. Louise was played by Mary Beth Derry and sister June was portrayed by Mary Ann Vingle. In what director J. Mcllwee called most demanding role Nancy Myers played Mama Rose. 123 124 126 126 The Women The play, set in the late thirties, involves the efforts of a clique of women to play respective roles in their high class, artificial society wrought with vain show, comedy, tragedy, hope, and disappointment. After watching Clare Boothe Luce ' s THE WOMEN, one might suspect there is some truth in that old cliche, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. The play depicts the lives of a group of women who belong to the social butterfly class of elite. They are those distinctively known as the pillars of society. Their loves and hates are each other, as they delight in hearing the latest gossip about each other and manipulating each other ' s lives. They are there to help each survive various crises, but somehow they also long for each other ' s destruction. Director Charles Neel chose the play largely because of the opportuni- ties for women it offered; the cast consisted of twenty-one women por- traying a wide range of women.

This is the ques- tion that Erich Von Daniken addressed himself before an overflow- ing crowd at the Mountainlair ball- room. Von Daniken said the reli- gious doubts started him on his searcli to find evidence of foreign vis- itors. Von Daniken believes that these visitors had great influence upon the minds of ancient man, and perhaps the minds of modern man as well. The list, said Von Daniken, goes on and on. In speaking of these vari- ous findings, he was careful to note These are all pure speculations — they have never been proven. But, as he adds, They have never been dis- proven, either. The fact that these visitors left behinds tcK)ls for ancient man is the only way Von Daniken believes the pyramids of Egypt could have been built. George Skandalis 132 BETTY FREIDAN: Terming the women ' s movement the second American revolution, Betty Freidan, feminist leader and founder of the National Organization for Women, outlined the stages of the revolution. Friedan spoke to a large audience in the Lair Ballrooms and was sponsored by the Forum Festival Committee. You have grown up taking for granted that women are people, she said addressing the women in the audience. Twenty years ago, we had to consciously tell ourselves that over and over. Women then recognized that they were being kept in these roles by soci- ety, she said. Once women recognized that they were people, they were made to feel guilty. They were told that they were hurting their husband ' s masculinity or the growth of their children. After women realized who they were, they started to band together. At first, it seemed all we needed was numbers, she said. In those first few years, cries of sex dis- crimination overshadowed race dis- crimination. Changes were forthcoming in the practices of employers. Women vot- ers now outnumber men. Friedan terms the economic powers of women as enormous. Ray Betzner DAVID SCHOUMACHER, for- mer ABC News Washington corre- spondent, doesn ' t have a philosophy of journalism. But, he does have an attitude. Schoumacher ' s attitude toward journalism found its begin- nings in the Washington press corp. Though there are about 4000 reporters covering Washington, the press corp is more exclusive. The business of Washington is not run- ning the government, he explained. The business of Washington is get- ting re-elected. So it is the reporters who cover that process who really make up the press corp. Schoum- acher, the present anchorman of WMAL-TV in Washington, D.C., described this corp as a press estab- lishment. There is no conspiracy, but we do talk . . . almost exclusively to each other. There is also a race among this group of reporters to get the most insignificant things as soon as possi- ble on the air, he said. Ray Betzner OTTO PREMINGER: Producer- director Otto Preminger spent 45 minutes responding to questions with humorous quips, sound advice and educated comments, before he showed one of his films, The Man with the Golden Arm. People don ' t fight censorship enough, said Preminger in his most emphatic statement of the evening. I feel that one of our most precious fights in America is for free expres- sion. If this is ever diminished, then it is only one step toward dictatorship. Preminger explained he had prob- lems with censors trying to cut words from films such as The Moon is Blue and The Man with the Golden Arm. He described Moon as a harmless comedy that used the word virgin. In Golden Arm the word narcotics caused trouble. That was 20 years ago, said Preminger. Can you imagine what would happen if the censors tried that tcxday. ' Hoppy Kercheval 133 A. JAMES MANCHIN, former KEEP Director of West Virginia, vis- ited Morgantown to serve as master of ceremonies in the Pound Your Professor contest. A Volkswagen was demolished as the result of the contest. The professors were not physically assaulted; WVU students were given the opportunity to take their frustrations against their favor- ite professor by hitting a junked car with WVU professors painted on it. DICK GREGORY: Comedian, civil rights worker and former politi- cian Dick Gregory began his career as a comedian working only in black clubs and theaters. In 1961, he was called as a last-minute replacement at Chicago ' s Playboy Club. Gregory spoke before a convention of the Ku Klux Klan. Not only was he allowed to finish his routine, he was a success. Gregory was one of the first black comedians to break through the barri- ers of a white-dominated entertain- ment industry. During the civil rights movement of the ' 60 ' s, Gregory par- ticipated in every major demonstra- tion. He devoted his time and talent to giving benefits for civil rights groups, peace groups and other reform movements. Gregor ' ' s appearance at the Uni- versity was sponsored by the Black Experience Committee. 134 SYBIL LEEK: Writing is my profession, witchcraft is my religion, and the occult is my science. Leek explained that there is a misun- derstanding of witchcraft in the U.S. In Europe, where Leek was born and raised, witchcraft is accepted and is known as a reli- gion. Leek was raised in a family that accepted the supernatural as the natural. She went out at age eight to become a journalist and used her extra senses in her work. In her lecture. Leek described a revolution in the occult. TTiis revolution will take away the limits on the mind. It will allow among other things the reception of knowledge from other sphere. Parts of the Occult science revolution included: astrology; graphology or handwrit- ing study (which is now acceptable in Euro- pean courts of law); yoga; palm reading; tele- pathy and ESP. One of the problems people have with the revolution is that they do not accept and trust their senses. It is incorrea, says Leek, to always associate ESP experiences with nasty events. Sybil Leek refers to her- self as a white witch meaning that she does not use her talents for evil uses. Ray Betzner RALPH NADER: We have learned ev- erything that is inconsequential, Ralph Nader said as he blasted America ' s educa- tional system. Very little education refers to where power is and who has it, Nader added. There are very few of life ' s skills taught . . skills needed if you are going to be a tax- payer and a citizen. The consumer advocate charged that many of the nations problems today could be cor- reaed through more relevant education. He said students graduate from college and can- not write an essay on nutrition, even though it is a problem that faces everyone. They can- not write an essay on chemicals, insurance, banking, petroleum or any company; all of which are relevant to becoming an aware citi- zen. Nader offered three solutions: L applica- tion of one ' s field to specific problems. 2. self-teaching, and 3. curriculum changes. Nader implied through the entire speech that the most valuable education lies in com- munity involvement and citizen aaion. He pointed out that students have an excellent opportunity while at college to receive both a um versify education and a civic education. We have been taught to believe rather than to think, Nader said. We have con- sumed knowledge, but we are not taught how to use it. He said that students are at their peak of imagination and independence. Not only challenging education, the con- sumer advocate related his traditional gripes against industry. What right do industries have to inflia pollution on Americans with- out paying any compensation. ' Why should it be against the law in a state to relieve yourself in a river when there are no restrictions on a faaory doing the same thing. ' asked Nader. Nader said that in many cases might makes right. If you pollute enough, you can get away with it. He added that studies show that over the next ten years it would take only rwo per cent of the nation ' s gross national produa to clean up pollution. Hoppy Kercheval ]35 JACK WHITAKER brought the marriage between television and sports into focus when he spoke to a small crowd in the Lair ballrooms. He was sponsored by the Forum Festival Committee. The CBS sportscaster described what it was like in the early days of television. Two things sold television sets in those days: Milton Berle and sporting events, he said. Television was a lot easier then. Unfortunately, we had too many peo- ple doing radio broadcasts with pic- tures. In those early days of televi- sion, (the 1950 ' s) football was not broadcast nationally. That didn ' t come about until the Green Bay Pack- ers beat the Kansas City Chiefs and the Madison Avenue crowd got behind the game, said Whitaker. Professional football became so popular so quickly that no kid can afford to attend any games, said Whitaker. Whitaker, who has covered foot- ball off and on since 1952, thinks the game is still healthy, but its golden age could be over. Testifying as a witness at the Presi- dent ' s Commission on Amateur Ath- letics last fall in New York, Whitaker said, the trouble with amateur athlet- ics is the administrators are amateurs and the amateurs are professionals. Whitaker isn ' t certain whether any problems were resolved last fall, but he feels the commission is the strong- est of any in past history. The Philadelphia native went on to stress that a power struggle exists among the National Collegiate Asso- ciation of Amateur Athletics, the Amateur Athletic Union, and the U.S. Olympic Committee. All three will have to relinquish some of their pow- ers, said Whitaker, if the amateur pro- gram is to improve. On the subject of government subsidies for its athletes, Whitaker would like the U.S. athletes to remain independent, but still receive some help from the govern- ment.

As sororities and frater- nities gained national acceptance, WVU received its share of distinctive organizations and houses. The Beta Theta Pi house at 225 Belmar Avenue was the first Greek house on campus; now there are over twenty-five. These houses are filled with enthusiastic, bright young people who find their special wants and needs fulfilled by the brother and sisterhood which the Greeks offer. Greeks on campus participate fully in established campus activities, with their own divisions in float and ban- ner contests, intramurals, spirit com- petitions and pageants. Distinctive Greek activities also make their mark on the WVU campus. Greek Week, Sigma Chi Derby Days, and Rush are all part of the system which the stu- dents recognize as truly Greek. Today, and in the future, the Greeks are proud and dedicated — and they are here to stay!

Sports have helped fulfill our desire for competition and recog- nition. This desire is felt keenly by the athlete and the fan. Sports have affected all of us. To some it is a brief respite — relaxing with a game of tennis or cooling off with a swim. To others it is a religion — sitting in 30° weather waiting for the game to begin or standing in line for hours to get seats at the Coliseum. To some sports is a meal ticket to an education, recognition, or fortune. This section tries to cater to all these — the fair weather sportsman, the sportsmaniac, and the fame- seeker. In essence, however, it is dedi- cated to the man and woman who sfjend hours a day, days a week, and weeks a year honing their talents and skills in an effort to satisfy them- selves and their fans. Athletics are a vital part of life at WYU. The dedication and enthusi- asm of WVU ATHLETE 1973-1976 has helped formulate a record of which we can all be proud. While we may have lost some con- tests, the memories of SPORTS WVU 1975-1976 were ones of victory and success.

Predicted by some to finish 0-10-1, the Mountaineers put some mountain magic together to end the season with an 8-3 record. To top off a fantastic football season and to ring in the New Year, they defeated North Carolina State 13-10 in the Peach Bowl. WVU 50 28 35 28 14 10 38 17 31 19 Temple California Boston Col. So.

Fine rushing by Artie Owens, Dwayne Woods, Ron Lee, and Heywood Smith offset Chuck Muncie and the California Bears as the Blue and Gold defeated the PAC-8 runners-up 28-10. 206 Returning to Morgantown the Mountaineers squared off against Boston College. This pivotal eastern game saw WVU come out on top 35- 18 in front of a capacity crowd. 207 Win number four came against Southern Methodist of the powerful Southwest Conference. WVU defeated the Texas team 28-22. r ' . jiirj ' v X. 208 TM The Mountaineers faced a mid-season slump as they were defeated by Penn State, 39-0 at University Park. The team returned to Morgantown to face Tulane in the 1975 Homecoming Game. Once again they were defeated, 16-14. iW a v k nB 209 The Mountaineers got back on the winning track with a 10-7 win over Virginia Tech. Their sixth win came against Kent State by a score of 38-13. The following week arch-rival Pitt invaded Mountaineer Field. In one of the greatest games ever seen in the history of Mountaineer Field, a last second field goal by Bill McKenzie lifted WVU over the Panthers by 17- 14. Cheering and celebrations lasted throughout the week. Buoyed by the Pitt thriller, the Mountaineers defeated Richmond on the road 31-13. They closed the regular season with a heartbreaking loss to Syracuse, 20-19- 210 211 212 Several records were broken during the 1975 season, Artie Owens set a career rushing mark of 2,552 yards. His performance against Southern Methodist gained him the honor of Offensive Player of the Week by Sports Illustrated. Bill McKenzie set a new consecutive extra point mark with 34 straight. Dan Kendra completed 28 passes against Syracuse. A new attendance record for home games was set with nearly 200,000 attending the six home games. 213 jrrsi . ■xr - •i ' w-!_j ' r-..«t -i vw= ' JiS ' 7 ' -a? «aftiLi-«af.: .m.it xstt ' ' 214 215 PEACH BOWL 1975 2)6 ; ' ; J i£ The 8th annual Peach Bowl was played in Atlanta December 31, 1975, in Atlanta Stadium. Both WVU and N.C. State had played in this post- season classic. In 1972 the Wolfpack defeated the Mountaineers, 49-13. In 1975 the story was a little different. Buoyed by an aerial touchdown from Dan Kendra to Artie Owens with four seconds left in the first half, the Mountaineers dominated the second half. The winning score came on a touchdown pass from Dan Kendra to Scott McDonald in the fourth quarter. Kendra was named the game ' s outstanding offensive player and Ray Marshall was the outstanding defensive player. The Peach Bowl was Bobby Bowden ' s final game as Mountaineer mentor as he takes over the reins at Florida State. Frank Cignetti, Bowden ' s offensive coordinator was named head coach. If the 1975 season is any indication, 1976 should be a real fireworks of excitement. 217 BACK FROM LEFT: Head Coach Joedy Gardner, Graduate Assistant Jackie Joe Robinson, Sid Bostick, Russell Chapman, 0 ; J ' i ' Lewis, Mauricce Robinson, Stan Boskovich, Warren Baker, Associate Coach Jim Amick and Associate Coach Bill Rycza).

For the second year in a row the Mountaineers hosted the ECAC Southern Division Tourna- ment. They were defeated by George Washington in the opening contest. In the Consolation Game, they defeated Villanova for 3rd place in the tournament. Four year senior starter Warren Baker was a member of the All-Tournament Team in the ECAC play-off. 220 221 The Mountaineers, under the guidance of Joedy Gardner enter the 1976-1977 season without four seniors from this year ' s team. Gone is Warren Baker, four year starter and fan favorite; Stan Boskovich, leading scorer; Earnie Hall, floor general and playmaker; and Dave McCardle, an experienced letterman. 222 223 An experienced nucleus formulates the 76-77 team. Returning to lead the Mountaineers will be the quick play maker Bob Muggins; Russell Chapman, a strong rebounder and shooter; and Tony Robertson, a fine guard who dazzled the fans with his shooting expertise. 224 Sophomores saw a lot of action on the hardwoods this year. Sid Bostick proved to be an outstanding defensive player; junior college transfer Tommy Roberts contributed with his height and rebounding; and Maurice Robinson continued to improve in all aspects of play to emerge as one of the outstanding young players in the area. Freshmen Junius Lewis and Dana Perno saw action and showed a lot of control and poise against the more experienced players. They should offer three more outstanding seasons for the Mountaineers. y 225 c A C 226 A C T O N 227 The 1975-1976 Women ' s Basketball Team had one of their best seasons as they posted a 13-6 record.

Dodge Jeweler Morgantown Fairmont West Virginia ' dLe eh ' dfw 2)o HISTORY REVISITED The Bicentennial year provides the opportunity for us to relish our nation ' s 200 years of history and to view the life of Morgantown and West Virginia University in the mid 1800 ' s. During 1976, we should reflect upon the rapid changes that have occurred across our nation ' s life span. Modes of transportation have evolved from students riding horses and taking trolly cars to classes to riding inter-campus bus system and the PRT; although horses may be considered more reliable. 289 290 When was the last time you saw chickens and cattle grazing in downtown Morgan town? The horse and buggy was the favorite delight of the Sunday driver in the days of dirt roads and derby hats. Through the week the students had to struggle up the hill to classes in Woodburn Hall; but there was always time to stop and pose for a picture with one ' s best friends in the day ' s hottest fashion. The size of the University ' s graduating classes have increased in size from 17 to more than 3,000 students. The women wore mutton sleeves, starched blouses, and yards of dresses. The men wore narrow ties, vests, watch chains, and parted their hair in the middle. 291 West Virginia University had a burning desire for sports even in the early days of its establishment. The Football team played its first game in 1896 on a clearing near the main campus. The football player ' s uniform consisted of nickers, striped socks, shoes, a jacket, and a helmet resembling a night cap. The first basketball team was organized in 1904. WVU boasted of one of the first baseball teams in 1896. For many years the football games were played on a loose dirt field in front of the now women ' s hall. WVU showed its spirit in creating the huge Mountaineer that towered over the football field, players, and crowd. Many famous sports players have had their start at WVU, Hot Rod Hundley was among this acclaimed group. ,4fiTr 292 1 293 w . )N OF THE MORGAN STOCKADE FORT 177 MorgantowR wis founded fiom ikis site by CKWELL MORGAN IN lit kjs Fliostiff elected jby ONONGALIA HISTORICAL SOCIE 294 J. . The Morgan Stockade Fort was established in 1772 to protect the settlers from Indian attacks. Col. Zackwell Morgan founded the city of Morgan town in 1785 upon this site. One aspect that present West Virginians and the pioneers share in their daily living is the condition of the roadways. There was a time when each household had its separate Out House as compared to modern indoor plumbing. A noticeable change in the landscape is in the increase of buildings that can be seen in each of these pictures; along the Monongalia River, Woodburn Circle, and the country side surrounding the University grounds. 295 The Monongalia Academy was incorporated by an act of the Virginia legislature in 1814. The first academy building was located on the corner of Spruce and Wiley streets. It was divided into two school rooms. In the year 1828, two lots were bought, located on the corner of Walnut and Spruce streets and between ' 1828 and 1831 a two-story brick building was erected for the use of the Academy. During this period the school widened its sphere of usefulness and Morgantown became the educational center of the state. 296 For over Vi a century Monongalia Academy flourished! Congress passed an act on July 2, 1862, donating lands to the states and territories to establish Colleges for the benefit of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts. In 1864 this act was extended to the new born state of West Virginia. WY Agricultural College was founded in 1867; the name was changed the next year to West Virginia University. The Trustees of the Monongalia Academy offered the legislature all the real estate and personal effects of the Academy, including the property known as Woodburn Female Seminary, provided that Morgantown be selected as the seat of the college; the offer was accepted. 297 Rev. Alexander Martin, D.D., was elected first President of WVU. His inaugural address explained the condition of education at that time. It is a most humiliating truth, and enough to make one weep, that the unhappy and illiberal legislature from across the mountains has left us here in West Virginia — an inheritance of lOO ' s and lOOO ' s and 10,000 ' s of our fellow citizens — unable to write their names or read God ' s work. 298 WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY MOUNTAINEER FIELD 299 300 Even should the present generation fail to appreciate, improve and increase its power, it will still live, and coming ages shall build on the foundation which here, by faith and prayer, we lay, a fabric whose majestic proportions may exceed our most sanguine expectations. Dr. Martin first WVU president 301 302 There were 124 people enrolled in the first year of the WVU ' s history. The Graduating Class of 1896 had very dif- ferent ideas about the manner of hair styles and notice the men ' s ties. Many hours of study occurred at WVU ' s first library, now Stewart Hall. In the ' 60 ' s, students enjoyed entertainment and snacks in the old Mountain Lair. During the mid 1800 ' s, people would gather in front of their favor- ite store to exchange bits of news. 303 Being !•: Dc si en in:: f to thank a 1 k.
