Thank You!

This is a brid but sincere word of appreciation to the superintendents and principals over the East.

Revolution Explodes .

Oh yes! The revolution. They usually occur in July but tilis time, with the Communists trying to Lake over, it was much rougher than usual. For three weeks fighting went on, most of it between 5 and 7 p. m., and many were killed and wounded.

Occasionally at night, grenades exploded in the area and shook the houses. After 9 p. m. curfew, anyone outside was shot by the troops, without question.

Vicki's first knowledge that it was "revoluti.on time" came when she and he r associates staying in the Aguilar home were sitting in the patio in an evening. Suddenly bullets began flying overhead and tear gas drifted in to make' their eyes water, so they hurried to their rooms and closed the doors. ,--------------:

This year the general theme is "Around the World." Already some organizations have' been looking over suggested float ideas and have begun sketching floats that will, in the short time .from now to Oct. 8, be transformed into. masterworks featuring either cleverness or staeer loveliness.

RedJne.u Plan Comeback

Northeastern State, two years ago the small college national champions, are aiming to rebound after some seebaeks in the 1959 season - the East Central Tigers Jast year came back from a 14-0 halfWme deficit in one of the thrilling rallies of the season to turn the Redmen back 27·14.

1'his year both teams are shooting for a high place in the Oklaborna Collegiate Conference and the resulting conflict promises to be another stirring fall aftel'lloon spectacle,

Gridders of 1914, and 1915 will be special 'reunion' guests of the college. ,

Several orgamzations are eonsidering arranging for get-togethers of their present and former' students, but the Homecoming Day itself is an annual delightful mingling of students of other days returned for a sentimental visit to a beloved school and the crop of oncoming stu den t s who are making East Central of today and tomorrow.

Message from the President

Another school year has begun, and some 1800 of you young men and women are here on the campus. Each of you is the most important person in the worId-to yourself. Despite the problems that you as an individual face, you would not trade your individual identity for that of any other person on earth--or anywhere else. You would rather be you than anybody else.

You--each of you-John, Mary, Jane, Jim--a r e young and running over with energy and vitality, seeking for self-fulfillment,

You are sustained by hope, but you are beset with fears and doubts. You hope for a good life of service with your own home in a decent world, but you see turmoil and tragedy in many places.

I want to urge you--quietly--not to be too much disturbed by the confusion and doubt about you. The universe--and man-s-are not the result of blind chance. The Creator does not work by blind chance.

There is purpose in the apparent madness in the world today. Light and knowledge are penetrating the dark places today. The "man with the hoe" is beginning to stand up like a man. People of color bere and abroad are demanding recognition as the full-fledged human beings which they are. Coolies, peons, slaves and serfs are challenging the power and position of their "bettel's," and are demanding the right to strive for the good life.

Most of these peoples who are revolting against wrong have little education and little experience in managing their own affairs. Small wonder that we hear of excesses of various kinds in China, in the Congo, and elsewhere--even in the United States.

But "the mills of the gods grind slowly." I have confidence that this is not the end of an era of dernocracy and human rights, but the opening of a new era in which we shall achieve in due time more "liberty and justice for all."

These college years are precious years in your lives.

Most of you still have the protection, support and encouragement of parents and other loved ones. Use these years to the full for their intended p!lrpos~s: To c~me to understand yourself and the world in which you live, to develop an adequate philosophy. of life based on a vital faith, to prepare to make a Iiving for yourselves and your dependents, and to fit your~elve~, t? fu~chon as free men and women in a free SOCIety with liberty and justice for all."

Things happened to some of Don Gant's tentative trombone section just before enrollment but at the end of Tuesday's enrollment he jubilantly announced that the band had reached a pre-school goal of 60 members.

Band matters are picking up in other areas, too - already 16 bands from over the area have agreed to come in and add their color and music to tlJe impressive pageant of floats and bands on the morning of Homecoming Day.

East Central Makes Home Debut Against College of the Ozarks

East Central Tigers blow oli the lid of their home football season here Saturday night at 8 when ~hey and the College of the Ozarks eleven take the field.

Enthusiasm is already a-building over the campus ~ after all, last season's series of thrilling home games has carried over in the feelings of those who were student and are fans in 1959.

The Tigers have already provo ed their mettle in a stirring 14-7 loss to powerful Howard Payne at Brownwood, Tex., last Saturday night, battling one even turns a highly rated Lone star Loop member.

They figure to be at almost full strength ~ Bob Green got a knee injury at Brownwood hut the others came with only hard-nosed scratches.

Coach Elvan George's charges are in excellent spirits, eager to

start a new suing of victories, and promise sound, exciting football.

The East Central Band will be ready ~ it is rushing at a mad pace through short hut i n ten s e practices sessions of playing and marching, will appear splendid in new capes added to an already striking uniform, and will have pre-game and halftime performances ready.

As for the Ozarkians, no word has come to coach or school about their team !!his year but no one in the Tiger camp is taking them lightly.

A year ago, at Clarksville, the Tigers bumped into a finely conditioned team with a crack passer and in a stern struggle managed a 19-6 victory. Coach George says that the Ozarks team is always about the best conditioned of all Tiger rivals and are always 'ready to play.'

All of this adds up to an exciting night that will bring Tiger fans out in full force and win new ones among new students here.

The facilities there can take care of 80 or more bandmen and Don Gant, enterprising director, i5 likely to fill 'er up one of these not distant days.

New Scholarship Makes Big Boost

VICKI WARD wears a huipil and displays a wicked locking machete and its se abbar-d, some of the items she brought back after spending most of two months in archaelogica I study and excavafien in Guatemala City, Guatemala. Vicki l1ad exciting experiences in her summer expedition between her freshman and sophomore years at East Central.

Vicki found in Guatemala City acquaintances of Kenneth Campbell, head of the Art Department, who worked there some summers ago.

Daughter of Mrs. Ireta Ward

and the late J. W. Ward, Vicki hunts, fishes, helps her mother with the farm, has driven tractors since she was a small girl.

She got interested in archeology when she and companions found many Indian relics on a hill on her father's farm.

She returns to East Central for a sophomore year to take up tundamentals of art, general psychology, intermediate Spanish, English, voice and piano.

Archaeology? "I love it," says Vicki, who hopes to return to Guatemala City next summer for more digging- and maybe another revolution,

BSU Olfers Home Away Irom Home For EC Students

Baptist Student Union's slogan of some years now ~ A Home away from Horne ~ continues to serve pa r t i a II y for the studen ts attending East Central State COllege.

But that slogan falls far short of covering the program of the BSU here. The East Central BSU is one of the most active in the state, with an outstanding and varied program tha~ serves students with occasions for worship, service, spiritual growth, happy social life.

The BSU was open Monday and Tuesday for visiting by new students here in an informal Open House. Next Monday night from 7 on the BSU will have Open House to which :;-JI students are invited for refreshments, to see the facilities here and get acquainted with the BSU 'bounch',

Moonday services, 12:30-12:50, daily Mondays through Fridays are student-arranged and directed; vespers each Thursday at 6:30 are also under direction of the Student Council.

There is participation in local church activities, a jail service once a month, visitation of shutins. There is social activity, and an informal atmosphere t hat makes a student feel quickly welcome and a part of t:hings during hours of feHowship when there is no program going on.

The BSU here is mission-minded; last summer six of the twelve summer student missionaries going from Oklahoma to work in several states were East Centralites; in 1959 EC·BSU furnisbed two of four.

Rev. nay Quiett, director, for the BSU invited students to drop by and visit, to attend services and social events and find out what BSU has to offer in social and religious Iile and development.

Harbin, the chief city of Central Mancnuria, was once a small village and market for nearby wheat crops. Today a cit y of 500,000, it has a population of many nations. Largest groups are Russian, Japanese, Koreans and Chinese.

Daniel Webster served as secretary of state in the cabinets of three different presidents - WilHam Henry Harrison, John Tyler and Millard Fillmore.

EAST CENTRAL bant/men will be snappier than ever this fall when the marching band steps smartly down Norris Field. What makes the difference? A dazzling white cape with orange black-outlined letters. This, with the school's orange and black uniforms already in use, makes for a rea lIy smart outfit. Don Gant, director, smiles as he contemplates what the band uniforms will mean when around 60 musicians hit the public's eye ..

enrollment is completed. Students interested in joi~ the EC band still have time to do so, but deadline for joining is September 30. Interested students should see Donald Gaot, band director.

Students are reminded that no fee is charged for the hour ol band credit.

Plans for the band this year include trips to four out of town football games, but these plans de-pend on how ehe hand shapes up this week. Plans include .a trip to the next week's game at Weather· ford.

Twirler try-outs will be held at 4:30 p.rn. today (September 14) to fill the three twirler vacancies. There is also a vacancy for drum major. Band officers will be elected later in the year.

A lot of people on the campus are busy this week, bot few are as busy or rushed as members of the band.

With their first performance only three days away, the band must meet for the first time 10- day, organize, practice music and marching in preparation for Saturday night's football game with College of the Ozarks. The band will he presenting pre-game and half-time activities at the first borne game, garbed in new orange and white capes.

EC still wasn't finished, bowever. With the use of effective-ly planned time-outs, the Tigers gained possession with 40 seconds left ill the game.

E. C. Goes ','Unit" System For Sat. Home Debut

To platoon or not to platoon .•• that was the question.

East Central's Elvan George took the "ironman" route at How. ard Payne last week and wound up one touchdown behind. Prior to the game, the E, C. staff didn't definitely decide on a system of substitution and the Tigers found themselves tiring long before their platooning foes from Texas in the openi n g tilt.

The problem was simply deciding on how to use two-way standouts such as Jim Malone, Lew McGill and Joe Hyden, Would it be wise to play those three linemen on defense and not at all on offense? Not lik el y ,

Packed Activities Begin in. Morni,ng

There's no other day just like it-Homecoming Day at East Central is packed with activities that will explode into a flurry of excitement Saturday morning and con-

tinue into the night. .

A tide of excitement has been rising all week as dozens and dozens of students, with some instructors taking a hand, worked hard to transform float ideas into the beautiful reality that helps make the parade the thing of beauty it annually becomes, The band has been working overtime for its parade and afternoon part. The football squad has been sharpening its attack for the visiting Northeastern Redmen,

The parade this year is on a truly big scale. There will be 22 bands, headed by East Central and Northeastern's, with the 90-girl Cherokee Maidens, Northeastern Drill team, and 20 area high school bands, There will be 22 queens, all at their charming best And the floats-14 of them.

At noon, three members of the reunioning 1914-15 football teams will speak at the Former Students Assoelation Luncheon, climaxing the getting-together of former classmates.

At 2:.30 the football game will launch an hour of sizzling action and the Homecoming Queen-to be announced at hall-time-will be crowned, After the game, former members of Pi Kappa Theta and Pi Kappa Sigma will be guests at a coffee in the Student Union Lounge, and the busy day closes with a students-faculty dance In the ballroom from 8 to 11, sponsored by the Lettermen's '0' Club,

EAST CENTRAL JOURNAL

Only foor answu:s to our first Quiz Box have come in so far. We want to draw your attention to the fact that we have to get our Quiz Box to the editor at least a week before you get the Journal. Therefore it will be necessary to recognize those of you whose solutions come in kite the following time.

We were well pleased with the fact that every one of the four students who sent jn a solution was able to glve the name of Miss Kate K. Knight, who was head of the math department at E a s t Central for many years and who was certainly a person who was highly respected and loved by all who knew her.

Now that you have shown that you can handle numbers to the base five, we have decided to give you a chance to do some more numbers to various bases. Some number bases are of practical importance besides helping students to understand numbers better. The binary base (base two), for instance, is used by the large computers. Then tt is easy to change a binary number to a number base eight. The base seven is 0[ some interest due to the fact that there are seven days in a week.

Problem: Change all of the following numbers to the base ten: 125 (base 7), 10101 (base 2), 374 (base 8), 84 (baSe 12), 11101 (base 2), and 604 (base 7l. For good measure, see if yoo can change 324 (base 10\ to a number base 5.

Solutions to our last Quiz Box were sent in by Kent Marrit and Gary Elmore, Sulphur, Ruth Ann Flsher, Okemah, and Paw Le e NaB, Seminole.

jor and strong supporting roles, and has worked on costumes and sets. Last year he was a member of a debate team. He has done judging for forensic meets and play festivals.

Add to these his membership in Pi Kappa Delta, debate fraternity; Alpha Psi Omega, dramtic fraternity, and vice president of that frat last year; Who's Who last year, and the English Club, and some idea of Ron's versatility develops.

Each month of the regular school year, the Student Honor Court selects a student of the Month. omlnatlons for this award must be submitted to the Court prior to its first meeting of the following month. The final selection will be based on some outstanding contrlbution the student has made to the College, a campus organization, or an off campus organization, but the contribution sbould be of such a nature that it represents the spirit of E a s t Central.

The act or contribution should also be of the type that would promote a better understanding and a more harmonious relationship between the college, and those who are no" directly connected with it, between faculty and students or between students and students.

Nominations for the student of the Month award can be made by any member of the {acuity, any student, or any campus organization, but specific information must be included showing why the nominee should be considered for the zward. The nomination shall be anonymous and shall be turned into the Dean of Student's Office.

Civic clubs and other' "off campus" organizations may recommend the nomination of an individual, and if the Court approves the recommendation by a majority vote, the individual will automatically become a nominee for the award.

Any nominee must have at least a "C" grade average in the semester in progress, and or in the preceeding semester.

NO. 3:

Those E.C. fans who are planning on attending the Homecoming game this year will probably witness one of the most thrilling games played for this occasion in the past few years. This year's game will .see the East Central Tigers taking on the Northeastern State College Redmen of Tahlequah. The game will be played at Norris Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 8 and is slated to be a thriller.

Northeastern coach Harold Stratton, in 1958 led the Redmen to a national championship but last year found the going a bit rough and Won only two out of eight games. Tbis year, "However," he is fielding a much stronger and experienced team in hopes of gaining back a portion of their former football prominence.

The Redmen will have several returning lettermen this year and are resting their hopes on these. The only returning lineman this year is Joe Kiger, a 210-pound tackle, who was ranked among the league's best in both

'58 and '59.' ,

Another returning letterman and a mainstay in the backfield is Robert Jackson. Jackson is from Sulphur and is in his third year with the Redmen. Bob also played on the 1958 National Championship team.

. Coach Elvan George this year hasthe Tigers playing a different type of ball. The unit system which the Tigers are playing this year was chosen bec~use as Coach George says, "it fits the team's personality better." This must be true because the Tigers are playing

a good brand of ball this year. .

The outcome of this year's game remains to be seen. E.C. has won one and lost one in conference play. Northeastern has lost both of their conference games by close scores. One thing is sure, any Tiger fan who wants to see a thrilling game shouldn't miss this one.

'Harvey' Set For

Production Nov. 21-22

Dates for the presentation ~ of "Harvey," the three-act comedy now being readied by the speech department, have been moved to November 21 and 22. Curtain will be at 6:00 oth nights.

The play concerns the adventures of one Elwood P. Dowd, a man of independent means. He has escaped reality by spending his time being "pleasant" in local bars in the company of his companion, Harvey. an Imaginary, invisibile, six-foot rabbit

When Elwood's sister a n d niece attempt to put him in a mental hospital. there are some intel:esting developments; as well as some interesting comments on the nature of reality.

Rehearsals are being held nightly in the auditorium under the direction of Dr. Dorothy Summers, associate pro f e s s 0 r of speech.

Members of the technical crew, or at least those who are diligent. are at work on the two sets for the play. The use of more than one set presents considerable challenge, since there is a space problem both :Ill-stage and backstage in the auditorium.

The back-stage crew will have to shilt scenery quickly in cramped quarters. and helpers are ia demand'. One set will have to be set up inside the other, a ticklish business since . cannot be lowered from above.

Anyone who wants to assist in constructing or moving scenery and getting a look behlnd tbe scenes should see Dr. Summers in Science Hall 316.

"Harvey" won a Pulitzer Pri7J8 for its author, Mary Chase, and has been one of the most popular plays in recent years. Frank Fay starred in the original Broadway production, and Joe E. Brown took the lead in the road company. The movie version starred James Stewart, and Art Carney played Elwood P. Dowd in a recent televiston version of theplay.

In tbe campus production Car. rol Thrash. Ada ~ni()r, will play Elwood, and Ellen Ewing, Lawton junior, will play his sister, Vela Simmons. Martha Howell" Wewoka senior, has the role of Myrtle Mae Simmons, Elwood's niece. Judge Gaffney, friend and legal advtsorfo the family, will be played by Lowell Brannon, Byng senior.

The staff at Chumley's Rest, the mental hospital to which EIChumley, played by Roy Cross- 00, Holdenville senior; Dr. Sanderson.played by Jerry Hickey. Ardmore junior: Miss Kelly, a nurse, played '->y Nita Lee, Me-Alester sophomore, and Wilson, an attendant, played by Russell Rutledge, Lindsay junior.

Other members of too cast Include Rebecca Osmond, Henryetta sophomore, as the socially important Mrs. Chauvenet: Sara Milam, Antlers junior. as Mrs. Chumley; Jobn Reddish, McAlester senior as Lofgren, and Pat Huff, Eurala sophomore. as M.iss Johnson.

Doodle Woodson Chosen Student Of the Month

Chosen by the Honor Court as Student of the Month for October is Layoid "Doodle" Woodson, a senior from Claremore. Woodson is majorlng' in general business and minoring in economics.

He is well known on campus as president of the East Central Stu· dent Senate and a member of the Tiger football squad. He is also active in various other campus organizations including the Baptist Student Union, Alpha Honor S0- ciety, Circle K and the 0 Club.

He is the son of Mr. and Mrs, O. M. Woodson of Claremore.

C Home Ec Students Help edecor ting Food Lab

n

'I'hl} newly rederorated foods laboratory holds special meaning and interest to Loday's home ecmomics students at East Centra1 and will continue to have meaning for them because they had a hand in selection :f ideas for redecoraJ.ion. Several years from DOW, • when these same students are out teaching, they can use this experience in redecoration, in teaching their own classrooms or in decorating their own homes.

The Iace-lifting of the foods

laboratory began last summer when the walls were painted a light green, an improvement over the previous gray color. A faint touch of pink can be seen when cabinet doors are opened as the inside of the cabinets were painted very pale pink. The pale pink which can be seen through the glass doors o~ thr china cabinets breaks the continuous green color and makes the dishes show up very plainly.

WYNEMA WALTERS, Pernell sophomore, and Carol McMillan, Ada senior, home ec: students, are peering into the deep freeze to select foods they will prepare in their foods class. The newly decorated foods laboratory is furnished with modern up·to-date appliances to help in prep'aring the

Students in tile Foods and Meal Planning classes made suggestions for redecoration and chose the green color to be used in the lab. This selection gave them actual experience in redecoration. Students selected cotton material for the cottage style curtains in the lab and dyed them to match the color of the walts. The same curtains were used in the newly painted, white faculty office to tie the cOlor of the two rooms together. Home Economics students made the curtains.

The foods lab is up to date with the latest appliances, for new applianee models are received as they come out each year. Besides having a large deep freeze, washer, dryer and ironer, the lab contains seven food preparation centers, consisting of sink, stove, refrigerator and cabinet space. I

Students in the. Foods class I actually prepare and serve foods, 1 but don't cook full meals - only special dishes that fit into the overall family food. Thro.ugh class discussion, students learn th'e evaluation of foods nutritionwise as well as budget-wise.

Mrs. Delia Majure, assistant professor of Home Economics, explains that the foods classes are not just cooking, but learning ~he whole aspect of family life.

The prepared meals are served i in the recently redecerated Iiving-<Ji.ning room of the home economics department. The redecoration began with lowering of the , 'ceiling and providing all acoustic ceiling of beige eelor. New light. lng Ii: x tures were provided and new French provinineial furniture was acquired.

The new Iurniture has a fruit wood finish' and consists of a china cabinet table and six chairs, butler's chest, coffee table, two end tables and a side table. The rosy beige carpet and cream-beige walls can]' out the color scheme, as do the drapes which cover the entire east end of the room to give the room width. The drapes were made by home economics stu-dents ill their spare time.

Selection of furniture and color scheme for this rom was done by Mrs. Majure and Mrs. Grace George. both assistant professors in the East Central home ceoJ)(')Dlics department.

Kangaroos' Last Half Rally Overcomes EC Lead, 38-28

The East Central Tigers suffered their fourth loss of the season October 22 at the hands of the Austin College Kangaroos of Sherman, Tex. It was a rough

- and tumble game that saw the Tigers ahead at the half 21-12. In the last half Austin displayed a wild offensive and came out

ahead 38-28. The Tigers now stand at three wins and four losses lor season play.

At halftime it looked as if it would be Tigers all the way, after a 21-12 lead on touchdowns by quarterback Woodson and halfback Ward. WoodsOJ1 went over for the first score from the 35 and Ward scored the next two on straight handoffs from the 6 and 11 yard lines. Tom Erwin kicked the three extra points for the 21-12 lead.

In the third quarter Austin started rolling.On the kickoff, the Kangaroo kicker elected to try an onsides boot. It worked as E.C. fumbled and Austin's Joe Reed recovered at the Tiger 33. Three plays late!" quarterback Miller passed to halfback Glen Kirk for the touchdown and a 21-18 score. -The conversion was good and the score went to 21-19.

The Tigers came back with a drive of their own but gave up the bail at the Austin 32 on fourth down.

In nine plays the Kangaroos moved to the Tiger 2-yard line, where Miller went over for the goahead touchdown. The f 0 u r t h quarter ended with Austin out front 25-21.

Early in the fourth quarter the Tigers suffered an unfortunate mishap. The Tigers had started another long drive and bad moved the ball to the Austin 9-yard line. Halfback, John Cooper, hit the line on a handoff but fumbled the ball, Steve Burkett, Kangaroo defender, picked up the ball at the lO-yard line and sped 90 yards for the surprise touchdown and a lead of 31-21.

The last E. C. score came when the Tigers took a Kangaroo punt at their own 20. They mosed to the 33 where Woodson rolled out and hit halfback Larry Ward in the flat. End Bob Green cleared the path with a timely. block and Ward raced 67 yards for the score. Tom Erwin's kick was good for a score of 31-28 with 7:10 left to play.

After the kickoff the !:earns exchanged punts but the wind held an E. C. PUI1 short and set up the final Austin touchdown.

Austin moved the bail to the Tiger's 15-yard line where Baker took a quick pitch and went around end for the score. The conversion was good and Austill went further ahead 38·28 with only 48 seconds left to play,

E. C. h-ied a desperate aeri.al attack but time ran out before a score resulted.

Revisions Made for Instructors

The Northwestern Rangers' dream of a conference crown was shattered as the East Centra] Tigers literally ran wild and dump ed the Rangers by an incredible score of 34-7. The Tigers staged their finest game of the year both offensively and defensively. E.C. gained 410 yards on offense and at the same time held Northwest. ern 1:0 only 129 yards.

The fit,st Tigel' touchdown came in the second quarter after an exchange of punts. E. C. took the ball on their OWl' 4O-yard line and actually drove 105 yards t~ pay dirt. Three IS-yard penalties added 45 yards to their total. A. crucial pass from quarterback Woodson to halfback Ward placed the ball on the 8-yard line. Halfback Watson plunged over Ior the touchdown with 9:51 to go J[) the half. The kick was wide but the Tigers held a 6-0 lead.

Two minutes later, C. T. Bronaugh of E. C. jumped on a hobbled bali at his own 36-yal·d line to set up the second Tiger tally.

East Central again displayed their power as they rolled to the t-yard line where Woodson went over fOI' the score and a 12-0 lead. Tom Erwin added the CODversion and E. C. left the field with halftime lead of 13-0.

Early in the third quarter E.C. began 1:0 show its defensive strength. After snowing under two of Northwestern's drives the Tigers were forced to punt. E.C.'s Jerry Bettis went back 1:0 kick but lost control of the ball. A Ranger picked it up and went 1:0 the 5-yard line before Donnie Crownover stopped him.

In the plays that followed East Central displayed the finest defensive stand of the season. Fourth down found the ball moved only to the 4-yard line. Northwestern grew desperate and John Bell attempted a rollout pass. He was snowed limier at the 3 and E.C. took possession at that point.

The fourth quarter found

Northwestern in possession of the ball only to be again stopped by

the Tigers' brick-wall defense, E. C. took over at its own 25-yard line and started a drive. Inches short of a first down at the 35 E. C. elected to punt. Ranger guard, Gordon Crowdis, broke through to block the kick and set up the only Ranger score of the game.

The Rangers took over then and quarterback Bell took to the air. His first two trys were knock. ed down by the Tiger defense. On third. down he hi,t halfback Chrrold Epp at the 2-yard line and from that point Bell went over for the score. Lerou W-:ymon's conversion kick was good and the score was 13c7 with only 8:35 to go in the game.

Then the tide turned. Taking the ball at their own 33 the Tigers moved the ball 67 yards in nine plays for the touchdown. Watson turned in the big run, a 34 yarder to the ll-yard line where he also went in lor the touchdown. Tom Erwin's kick was good and E. C. 's lead increased fa 20-7.

Then, things really went wild.

E. C. 's Tommy Redman intercepted a Bell pass but the Tigel's were unable to move and the Rangers took over. On first down BeU again tried to pass. This time Redman intercepted again and ran the ball back to the 1&yard line and set up the fourth E. C .. score. Jooes rammed 9 yards to the 4-yard line, then Watson broke over for his third touchdown and E. C. led by 26-7. Erwin made it '}:f-1 with ofloo ly 1:07 remaining in the game.

Just 48 seconds were left when Bell tried another pass from his own st. This time, it was Jimmy Jones who carne up with the interception. Jones headed down the sideline and was stopped just short of the goal line on the 5. On first down reserve quarterback Dick Davenport hit Jones .on a short pass in the corner oJ the end-zone, Erwin's kick was good and the Tigers left the field 'l:l seconds later with an- overwhelming score of 34-7.

Louisiana College Humbles East Central Tigers, 27-0

The East Central Tigers for the first time this year were unable to score on an opponent and were beaten by Louisiana College 27-0 Saturday, November S. It was the first time this year that the Tigers were completely stopped; the) gained only 125 yards during the game. The Wildcats, taking advantage of their own power and two EC miscues punches across a score in each quarter.m

It seemed that everything backfired Ior the Tigers. Early ill the first quarter the figers were foreed to punt but the ball was fumbled and Louisiana recovered 00 the Tiger 15 yard line to set up

their . first touchdown, Halfback Bob Corley went over for the score but the kick was wide, giving the Wildcats a 6-0 lead.

The secon.:lLouisiana score came in the second quarter when, after an exchange of punts, the Wildcats marched 52 yards for a tally. Fullback Billy Horn carried over for the touchdown from 2 yards out and Corley did the honors on the kick for a halftime- lead of 13-0.

Tbe last half saw the Tigers still unable to get rolling. The Wildcats took the ball and marched 63 yards for another tally and a lead of 26-0.

The rest of the third period saw the Tigers with the ball several times but unable to move it.

The fourth period looked as if the Tigers might come to liCe after th~y displayed a great defensive stand within their own 15- yard line. The Tigers recovered a fumble and started a drive of their own. Unfortunately, another fumble, this time by the Tigers, occurred and the fourth Loulsana touchdown was set up at the 25. Maillet's aerial to Darnell was good for the score and a 27-0 lead.

The Tigers put on one last burst as tbey plunged y5 yards but they were forced to give up the ball on a fourth down play.

Louisiana rao out tbe remaining minutes of the clock and left the field with a defensive 27·0 victory.

A dozen East Central debaters are back from Fort Wo·rth. Tex., and the TeU speech tournament that was tbeir first for the year.

D. J. Nabors, speech coach, says he is well pleased with their showing-tbey won about half of their debates in a field that included 109 teams from 33 schools including Baylor. Notre Dame, U. S_ Air Force Academy, Arizona State and many southwestern schools.

He reports that be is encouraged by the individual ratings of his debaters this early in the year. After judging a Baylor-Notre Dame debate, be concluded that the more experienced debaters he heard were more fluent than tbe East Centralites but had no better command of argument.

Tbe East Centralites stopped at North Texas State, Denton, last Thursday and in a practice workout with NTS unofficiaUy won two, tied one and lost one debate, That night they heard North Texas and a team from Oxford, England, in a stimulating debate.

Next comes the Central State meet at Edmond the coming weekend and on beyond is East Central's own big college tournament Dec. 1-3.

Students were ready for produetion 00 tile original date of November 16 and 17, but this date was changed to November 21 and 22, and students felt their acting became nat in the extra time, But with the first laughing response from the audience, the cast members were delighted and put forth their best efforts, with nothing at ali flat about the performance.

Dr. Summers explains that of~ ten students feel discouraged before play presentation, but with a good responsive audience, such as the response to "Harvey". crew members members feel their efforts and devoted time were worthwhile.

A1so this play was an indication of how students pitch in when needed. One member of the cast bad been ill and it was uncertain as to her appearance in the play, The afternoon preceding the fit·st performance, an u n d e r stu d y learned the ill girl's line sand would have .appeared in the play without the benefit of prsoticing had it beell necessary.

Finale to !:be comedy was at curtain call, when the cast parted in the middle of the stage to make room for the in vIsible Harvey to take his bow,

The reponslve audience at both performances of "Harvey," a three-act play bv Mary Chase, helped reward the drama students partlcipatlng in the comedy speech production.

Carroll Thrash portrayed the humorous Dowd, Elwood P., that is, who saw Harvey, an invisible 6-foot pooka rabbtt. Ellen Ewing's portrayal of Mrs. Simmons, sister of Dowo, brought many chuckles from the audience. All of the characters were very well cast and extracted frequent laughter from the audience.

For six weeks students in the "Harvey" play case and members of back stage crews have given up many activities in order to devote more time to the preparation of the play for presentation. The students, and director, Dr. Dorothy Summers, associate professor of speech, have sacrificed club meetings, patties, and sleep, as well as studying time.

Ai; is the case of aU plays, students spent untold hours in the "dungeon" building sets and scenery. And the time spent ill pl'eparing scene changes was evident, because the set was completely changed five times, each time in a very few minutes and in a very limited space.

Mummy, Chinese Food Highlight Art Field Trip

Seeing a "real" mummy and eati.ng Chinese food helped make the recent art field trip significant to 13 art majors and minors.

The field trip November II took the students and their sponsor, Kennt!th Cam pbell , to St. Gregory's Q)llege in Shawnee, where they toured the museum, rut gallery, monastery and chapel. Highlight of the field trip was visiting the museum, which contained the mummy of Egyptian Princess Menes, who was embalmed about 300 B. C.

The Art Gallery features the Renaissance paintings of masters' paintings collected by Greer and the museum contains articles ranging nom sluffed wild animals to ancient articles of Grecian, Egyptain and Mesopotamian cultures.

The !!roup visited the monastery, where monks of the Benedictine order (): the Roman CathDlic ehUl'eh are trained. In the chapel the art students witnessed a servic(> in which Gregorian chants were SUIlg, The chapel contai,ns many stailled glass windows by great artists and an out- 5tan<ling We mosiac of tbe Virgin Mary,

From Shawnee, the group traveled to Norman, where they ate Chinese food, many of them for the first time. At Oklahoma University, they visited the Art Gallery ilnd School of Art Building. At the art center in Oklahoma City, they saw displays of graphic arts which coincide with tM:ir eunent act wOI·k.

Students participating in the field trip were Carol OJilders, Dick Davenp<lrt, Dew Davidson, Shirely Davis, Martha Dunham, Donna Harrod, Glenda Kidwell, Tom Nevills. Frank icbols, AJbert Patton, Deanna Patty, Oleta Perry and Bill Roach.

The club, as indicated above, is corn posed o.f students takin g languages and has something of an international flavor this year with several Pan.a.mamall members.

There are 180 students taking foreign language this year, which is an increase ewer the past.

O'fieersreceotly elected include David Maduro of Panama City, Panama, and Gme Newman of Robles, Paoama City, viee-president; Tom 'Thompson ,Ada , treasurer; and Bette Max berry , Ada, reporter. Dr. J. Chalmers Herman, head 01 East Cootial's foreign language department, is sponsor of the group.

It's going to be a celebration of Christmas around the world when the club marks the Yule with a party at the Frank Dot, son's 1616 South Broadway Boulevard in Ada, OIl December 12. The party will begin at 7 p.m. and members can bring date.s jf thev wish.

The club has been rather active this semester with three meetings to its credit Members have visited Spain via David Brewer's color lides, Panama via a movie by Dr, BaTtIeU: of E.

The members are required to wait until they receive o£ficial notice of Ule snook before rushing out to chase the fleeing pledges. The word finally came with a knock 00 the door; and away went the members, clad in levis and Pi Kap sweatshirts, the uniIorm of the chase.

Woe unto the unheppy pledges.

They had sent a carload of girls back to the campus to scout and find the whereabouts of their missing member, who, unbeknownst to them, was sick and had been excused from the sneek. Tbey ran right lnto. t.he eager annada of members, and their carefully engineered sneas had failed,

The penalty fur failure was very evident at school the next morning. The pledges all wore signs advertising their ill-fated atl.empt at out-smarting - the memo be rs a nd admitted to all tha.t they were "dumb pledges" and proIessed Jove and admiratioo lor their smarter "Big Sisters,"

The East Central mathematics department was host to college mathematics students and to high school students and teachers Dec, 2. The visiting lecturer was Dr. R. D. Anderson, professor of mathematics, Louisiana State University. He was on a lecture tour of Texas, Oklahorna. and Kansas, which was sponsored by the Mathematical

Association of America. .

At 8 in the morning, a general assembly for college mathematics students was held in the Horace Mann Auditorium. Mrs. Bernice Mowdy of Ada H i g h School brought over a large number of her students to hear this lecture. The auditorium was almost filled,

In this lecture Dr. Anderson discussed in an understandable and interesting way, the laws of operation that apply to mathematical fields, and gave some interesting illustrations of modulo systems.

During the rest of the day Dr.

Anderson visited informally with students and the mathematics faculty.

Friday night at 7 Dr. Anderson talked to area high school teachers of mathematics and to school administrators who had been invited. In this lecture he discussed the mathematics curriculum of the ·secondary school, its present weaknesses, contemplated changes, and the work of various organizations, especially the School Mathematics Study Groop, which are active in improving the secondary school curriculum. About a hundred people were present for this meeting, and from all indications the leoture was very well received by the teachers.

Dr. Anderson is himself a member of the School Mathematics Study Group and knows its program in detail. The mathematics faculty of the col leg e feels that the "visiting lecturer" was a very helpful event and looks forward to rdpeatlng the affair next year.

Wesley Members Attend Workshop On OSU Campus

Several students from the East Central Wesley Foundation attended a World Christian Community workshop in Stillwater last weekend. The worship was sponsored by the Oklahoma Methodist Student Movement.

The platform speaker was Miss Ruth Harr-is 01 the Student Work Staff 0: ~he Board of Missions of the Methodist Church.

The workshop had a two-fold purpose; (1) It informed those in attendance as to some of the critical factors in the world situation of which they should be aware (2) U gave them practical guidance as to the work of the committee. It did not go into the mechanics 01 WCC so much as it was informative and enlightening.

Discussion groups were conducted on mission opportunities, race relations, summer services, and ecumenical movement of the church.

A buffeteria was held at the Foundation Saturday night, followed by a panel of international students.

East Central students attending the workshop were Janice Frederick, Norma Hamilton, Lea h Moody, Richard Swink, Guy Langston. They were accompanied by the i r director, Don Nobles and Mrs. Nobles.

In the novice class, superior ratings went to Southwest Missouri ,Stephen F. Austin and Texas Southern.

The meet was conducted in crisp, sunny weather, with teams and speakers from some 20 schools taking part.

Hugh Norris; head of the Industrial Art Department for EC for many years and now retired, was featured in The Ada Evening News recently, a~ng with his wife.

Nords, with EC 37 years beginning in 1919, says he enjoys retirement - but he keeps busy, as longtime treasurer of the Ada Kiwanis Club, Chamber of Commerce, as session clerk of the First Presbyterian Church for many yars, making things for the grandchildren, etc.

His years of activity have always been loaded with extras - from auctioneering pies at school houses to gi«ng unnumbered commencement addresses over the district.

He came out of East Texas, married "Haha" at Shennan, Tex. and they set up housekeeping at Emporia. Kan., where he made fhe furniture-they still have part of it in use. After coming to EC, he completed work on his first degree here.

During his years, the departmem here grew from two instructors to six, and £rom $7,000

A sure-fire red dress for thesocial season is the choice of Janice Bradley. Her dress, cotton ribbed fa i lie, is one of many which would be short for evening or long for occasions. Janice has also learned careful use of cosmetics required' for red outfits.

Carol McMillan's i a eke t iust grazes the hip, slim skirt; both are in 100 per cent wool plaid. Her calm blouse in dacron blend picks up its color in her plaid. This outfit is one from wh i ch a we 11 0 rgan ized wardrobe might stem diredly.

Pat Cooley, Wilburton senior, wears fashion's popular color this season, royal purple. Her completely lined dress is the versatile type which goes anywhere and the colors in the plaid, purple and black, create a smart winter costume.

GLENDA MORRISON, as The Juggler, beseeches the Virgin Mary, Julia Rogers, to accept the juggler's only poor gift, his juggling art. These are two among the Modern Dance Group students who presented "The Juggler of Notre Dame," as part of the East Central State College Christmas program, Wednesday morning.

What vs. How.

That's the title ri an extensive article by Dr. Melvin Self in the December issue of The Oklahoma Teacher, publication of the Oklaboma Education Assofia tion.

Dr. Self has been since June 1 chairman of the Department of Education and Psychology at East Central.

The article tabs three groups of citizens in their attieude of "what should OUI public schools be doing for our children?"

There are those who are satisf4ed "to leave it all to the educators; those who denounce today's practices as ignoring basic needs for fads and frills (although tiJ.ey cannot agree as to what should be taught), aod the small group aware of both shortcomings and strengths.

Satisfactory solutions will be found, Dr. self feels, through hard work, careful planning, and intelligent bIljnking that will supply the "bow" and bile "who" to answer the question of "what" oW' schools should be doing.

Dr. Self also. adds a warning that the school public will accept an educational program only w.hen the community understands it .and that to succeed, such a program must be understood by the public it serves.

Caroling Party Starts Holiday Season for BSU

Baptist student Union membars ushered in the Christmas season with a. caroling party Sunday night after church, The carolers gathered at the BSU center for the traditional caroling event.

Nearly 35 students boarded the BSG bus and caroled houses along North Oak street and 15th Street. and ended the caroling party by singing at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Charles F. Spencer.

After the carolers returned to I1h BSU, hot chocolate and cookies were served.

students gathered last week at the BSU to decorate the towering Christmas tree in the living room of the center. Popcorn, colored marshmallows and cranberries were strung and along with lights and other ornaments and placed on the tree.

The tree, standing in front of tbe large picture window, when lighted, can be seen across the campus and gives a holiday atmosphere.

Themes of the BSU noonday program this week have been in keeping with Christmas. Friday's program is to be the model program for the annual student Night at Christmas, which is the program given by BSU members in their home churches. Students give talks on the functions of BSU and its importance in their college lives.

Outwit m.i:

·A well-executed sneak December 7, contrived by pledges of Phi Delta Zeta Sorority, caught members unaware and resulted in a reversal of the usual outcome of s n e a k s. It is almost tsaditional that p l e d g e s get caught on their sneak, and wear signs the following day signify. ing their failure to succed, However, it was the members who appeared in classes Thursday wearing siggs denoting the i r failure to capture pledges who "outsmarted" them.

Most members were unaware that pledges could sneak on Wednesday night but due to the congested schedule of activities, pledges were given permission to sneak on any Wednesday night in addition to Thursday nights.

Pledges carefully made alibis as to w her e they were going Wedne~.:Iay night and gradually vacated the dorm, with members unsuspectingly watching. Finally, members noticed a conspicuous absence of pledges in the dormitory. A quick check confirmed the suspicions of members, and word spread of the situation. Nothing, howe v e r, could be done until members received the note left by pledges giving clues to the j r whereabouts.

When the note was delivered to members at 8 p.m., members tried to decipher meanings from the clues. The note read as follows: "We are long and far gone. A close friend's sympathy helps us now. Shades of World War I!!! Yesterday is a clue. Ask the sophomores for another one. Happy Hunting. Remember, this is the last month of leap year. You'll have to look high to find us."

:rhe reference to World War I led members to such places as the armory. One groep figured that pledges had gone to Sulphur to Veteran's Lake. In checking this clue, car loads of members were statloned at highways leading into Ada from Sulphur. But' this effort was in vain.

Actually, the 29 pledges, their

mistress, Junelle Williams, and a "kidnaped" member, He len Jane Dos s, were h a vi n g a "black-out" party at pledge Ellen Ewing's second story apartment. The clues about "high" had referred to the second story and "shades of World War I" referred to when shades w ere pulled during black-outs, The location of the apartment, 6 blocks away, was given in the reference the "yesterday," which was December 6.

Twice members went to the apartment, but after knocking and seeing and hearing no one, they left. As the members knock. ed at the front door the I a s t time, pledges crept down the back stairs and away from the apartment to another location where they were picked up in cars and returned to the dormitory.

Members returned to campus to be greeted by their "smart" little sisters. Many hours of the night were spent by pledges making clever signs for their big sisters. The signs ranged in size from small ones to a Jarge "three-tiered" sign. Signs were tied around members necks with string, strips of towels, or strips of plastic. At any rate, members wore signs flapping in the brisk wind Thursday morning.

The big sisters, in repaying the pledges for their evasiveness, aroused them at an early hour Thursday morning and treated them to a "come as you are" breakfast in Ilhe Union snack bar. Members arose at ,4:3() giving them time to dress, comb their hair, etc., but the pledges were invited at 5 a.m. to come as they were, pajamas, pin curlers and all.

A picture was taken of the pledges and their plight wil! forever be remembered in this way in the club's scrap book.

Historical Society Is Newest EC Club

While most of East Central students will go to their homes for the Christmas hol.idays there are a few students who will remain on the campus.

David Maduro, son of Mike and Esther Maduro, Panama, hasn't finished his plans for the holidays and just doesn't know what he is going to do. The 2().. year-old sophomore was hom e last summer.

Francisco Sanchez plans to visit in Philadelphia with his married sister and ber husband. His mother is making a trip from Panama City to also spend the holidays with her son-In-law and daughter. Francisco is the son of Francisco and Ida Sanchez. At East Central he is associated with the Newman Club, Foreign Language Club, "0" Club, and he plays first base on the E.C. baseball squad,

The purpose of this new club is to further interest in historical study, to give history students a chance to present results of any research they might do, and to get history students and the history faculty acquainted,

Students working to organize the society are Gus Wallgren, Sherry Wood, Nancy West, John McCoy, and Henry Wells. The sponsors are Dr. Droze and Dr. Boeger,

Meetings of the new organization will be held once a month in tile student Lounge.

'rnIe East Central Tigers basketlDallers lost two games to Texas schools on their first road trip of the year, November 29-30,

On November 29 they lost to Texas Wesleyan in a return match at Ft. Worth 81-66, and the following night dropped another to Arlington State College, Arlington, Texas, 7S.{i8.

The Texas Wesleyan Ram s gaiJ'!ed sweet revenge for the earlier sacking given them hy the Tigers by returning the favor with a 81·66 decision. It was the Tigers first loss 0{ the season.

The first ball was almost a repeat of the Ada game with the Rams ahead at halftime 34-30. The second half, however didn't prove to be the same. The Tigers weren't able to turn on the steam and come from behind. In the closing minutes the Tigers fell to some unfortunate fouling and the Rams capitalized on these. When the final horn sounded the Tigers were behind 81-66.

Since the National Defense Education Act went into operation 21 months ago, East Cerxral State College has received $134,417 for loans to students. The total for Oklahoma schools is $2,945,508.

Most of the loans were made 10 students who had already started their college careers and needed financial assistance, but about 75 first year students received loans this year. Under the act, loans have been made to some 4()()"500 students here.

At first the loans averaged $112 per student per semester. Last year the figure advanced to $150 and this year it stands at $200. The loans are based on economic need and superior scholastic standing. They enable students to cut down on their outside working load and devote more lime to their studies.

The first loans were made to seniors and many of these former students are coming in now to work out a schedule ol repayment with Oscar Parker of the Finance Office. Some pay ahead of schedule with one or two payments rather than over the allowable lo-year period. A student doesn't have to start repayIng tbe loon until a year after the college work is flrashed, The 3 per cent interest also does not begin until that tirr Loons are limited to ~l,OOO a year and to $5,000 foe a student's fui! college

Band Goes Following

Many Miles Tiger Team

Tigers Down Arlington 66-56 To Avenge Defeat

The EC Band may have been the travelingest college band in Oklahoma this fall.

When the band returned from the Rice Bowl game at Stuttgart, Ark., its members could count up 2,400 or more miles traveled by bus, to five games.

And some figure that the miles they put in in practice, in pregame and hall-time performances afoot would almost match their bus mileage,

The band was an important part of the fan support at games at Wea,lherford, Edmond, Sherman, Tex., and Pineville, La., and then at the Rice Bowl game.

The musicians, directed hy Don Gaol, really stepped out for the Southeastern game here, marching down Fourteenth Street HHi with lights sparkling and instruments going, serpentining across the stadium, putting on excellent pre-game and half-time performances, and winding up with a joyous caps-reversed Victory March as they wheeled about the playing field after victory.

The band's contributions at the Corpus Christi game wound up the regular season, then came the 'bonus' opportunity of the Rice Bowl and almost 800 moi miles for their record. And at Stuttgart the Oklahomans gave a fine account of themselves before the

largely Arkansas crowd.

Gant is already laying out plans for months ahead, including a concert in January.

He invites students wbo play instruments but haven't been able to take full part in the band to come in for two or three sessions a week, to take part in the concert development.

He'd particularly like to have an oboeist and a bassonist, but the invitation is open to others, too, to enjoy taking part and at the same time give the band a boost for its programs ahead.

Football Fans Receive Awards For Attendance

Fan-faithluls t his fall h a v e been numerous among East Centralites and some managed to show their attachment by attending all Tiger games, at home and away. Others would have done so if they could have arranged it.' .

The College Bookstore recognizes the following for all-game attendance and has an award for each of them, kt be presented a.t a coming assembly: Judy Ruhle, Ikey Denman, Joy c e Coursey, Mary Redman - and Mr. and Mrs. E.

Tbe East Central Tigers avenged an earlier defeat by the Arlington Slate Rebels by downing them 66-56 in a home game on Decemher 5, It wall the Tigers second win of the season in four starts.

The game was a combination of hot and cold shooting. rough rebounding and a near riot. The trouble started over some shoving on the court but was quickly smoothed over and play resumed,

The Tigers jumped oIl to an early lead when the Rebels missed their first shots of the game. The Tigers didn't however, and sprinted into the lead,

The Tigers got cold late in

the first half but D(Jt cold enough tor the Arlington boys to catcb up and by halftime the scoreboard read 37-30 in favor of EC.

Footballers With Fine

Despite losing s 0 m e close games this season the East Cen~ral Tigers' football team finished «be year with quite a record.

Last year the close ones seemed to fall the Tigers' way but they wound up with only second place in the conference on a 4-2 record. This year the same conference record yielded a tie for second place.

Perhaps the most satisfying win this year was the one over Northwestern then tied with Langston for the league lead. After the Ti· gers defeated themLangston d.id also and EC and NW tied for second place in final conference standings.

Speaking of Langston, the Tigers sure scared the daylights out of them as they led the Lions for Iihe first haM of play. In the last half bhe Lions came up with some mighty unbelieveable plays though and won. Langston also won the conference this year as they were pimked to do but their elose call with the Tigers surely dimmed their views for a while.

Central State was another close ODe this year which was lost in idle olosing roLnutes of play, The

Season Record

Bronchus were picked at the be-. ginning of the year to finish in second place but were out of the running by late season,

For the second year in a row the Tigers received an invitation to play in a bowl game. This yea!' saw the Tigers finish their season with a cronwing touch by defeating the Henderson State Red die 25·7 in the annual Rice Bowl game at Stuttgart, Ark. '

The Tigers wound up the sea· son including the bowl game with a 7·5 record but as was earlier mentioned lost several close ones,

Apparently many sources recognized that the Tigers had some good material in their ranks as two prominent Oklahoma newspapers named the Tigers predorninantly on their All-Conference polls.

The Tiget·s lOOe some very important players to graduation this year but have some promising newcomers to take over,

Next season the Tigers take on a new opponent in Arkansas State Teachers of Conway after College of IJhe Ozarks was dropped from the schedule when they dropped their football program. Other additions may come to the schedule later in the year.

East Central's basketball coach, Mickey McBride, has been named as one of the top ten basketbal1 coaches in the nation, according to totl.l victories during their. carriers.

McBride is in his 31st season with the Tigers. Among his outstanding tea m s, perhaps the most outstanding was the 1950 Tiger team which he piloted to the NAIA finals, where they lost to Indiana state, 61-57. That same year the Tigers swept the Oklahoma Collegiate Conference titIe with 14 straight victories.

McBride in his 30 years at East Central has won some 511 games while losing only 214. This

is a .706 win percentage. '

Oklahoma placed more coaches on this poll than any other state. Oklahoma coaches named were Henry ilia, Oklahoma State; Zip Gayles, Langston; Mickey McBride, EC; Bloomer Sullivan, SE, and Rankin Williams, SW.

thing was in favor of the Reddies. That was the 105 yards the Tigers were penalized during the game.

The game was a clear case of the Reddies bel'ng a good club but outmanned and outplayed by the Tigers.

The game was mostly a hard sharpshooting and rugged defense. At one point in the game some added action saw tempers flair and an exchanging of blows occurred. The Iraeus was quickly subdued and play was ressmed,

Southeastern, sparked by 6-5 Max Yarborough,. jumped Into a 6-1 lead to open firing in tbe first half. However bhe 'tigers came right back to tie it up and thea go ahead 8-7 with 11: 54 left in the haH.

Southeastern finally regained the lead with 8 : 2ll left in lhe game when the Savages' Denvel' Bearden hit to make it 46-45. The score then changed back and forth until only one minute was remaining in the game.

Southeastern plunged ahead 52- 50 with 24 seconds remaining but . with 9 seconds on the clock the Tigers tied it up with Cotton Davis' two free shots and the game was sen into the first overtime.

The Savages jumped into the lead early in the first overtime hut EC's Ed Brown stepped up and hit two free throws to tie it up and the game went into the second overtime- tied 57-57.

Stonewall High, Fitzhugh Reign As Girls Champs

Preceding the East Central and Arlington State game the annual Ea-st Central All Girls Basketball Tournament drew to a close with Stonewall defeating Vanoss for the Class A championship and Fitzhugh defeating Tupelo for the Class B title.

Both were very exciting games and displayed some very fine highschool basketball.

In the fi rst game of the night Tupelo was behind from the beginning but never gave up. Fitz· hugh was, however, the stronger team and the final score read Fit!lhugh 30 - Tupelo 22.

In the Class A finals it was a much closer contest as things were tied 34·34 when the final horn sounded and the game was sent into overtime. In a sudden death situation, Kay Bullard, Stonewall forward, hit two free shots to give Stonewall a 30-34 victory over Vanoss. .

Teams taking part in the tournament were: Class A - Konawa, Bowlegs, Moore, Vanoss and Stonewall; Class B - Strother, McLish, Paoli, Aher, Fitzhugh, Tupelo, Tribbey, Vamoosa and Roff.

-Students Cram For Final Exams

It hasn't been exactly the quiet before bhe storm, for the last few days on oarnpus, but here and boore students have been seen studying with an inJteoo.ity missing during the earlier part of Iihe semester.

There's logic back of It, of' OOW'se, as final exarniniations begin Thursday and that matter 01 making the best impression on instructors becomes important in ·the clo~jng class ll'Ieebings of the term, along with being able to

[meet Ilhe finals with some assur-

arsee.

As most studeras are well aware, Iour days nave been set aside for bhe finals - Thursday and Friday of this week, Mooday and Tuesday of next week.

For the students, there'll be a time lag before enrollment for undergraduates takes place Monday and Tuesday, January 30-31. Instructors will be plowing t'ilrough grading 0; fiDal examination papers and reeordlng grades. Class· es for the spring term begin February 1.

Night enrollment dates have been set for grad aDd undergrad night classes.

For a sizeable number, however, enrollment is already getting attenl;ion.

This involves ad v anced sel1liors and other students who pkm to enter ~he 'block' for the spring term, for both groups have to undergo moore consultation than obhers in wo,rking out their hours and schedules.

, And - the impending semesters change will see familiar persons leaving bhe campus, some to teach and some to enter other occupations. There will be 60 perSOIlS completing tl.eir bachelor degree work. Many of these will remain for the second semester to get a start on a m-aster's degree before heading out to teaching or other work in summer or next fall.

The problem about Mary and her' box of candy had many answers; not just one, as some students seemed to think. So there were several Incomplete solutions. On the other hand, there were also some very nlce explanations of this problem. One student said I!OOt. he had to assume that each student took only one piece at a time, and also bhat the answer wasn't one because two girls' names were mentioned. We might have added that the teacher did IliOt take any because she was on a diet,

TIl solueion was that i!f there had been two fewer students In the room each would have gotten Ilhe same number- of pieces of candy. So there could have been any number that exactly divides 48, or ·2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 12, 16, 24, at" 48 students.

AHen Wins Election

Ever want to do something daring and exciting? How about jumping out of an airplane and then floating to the ground with only a parachute on your back.

Early in bhe fall semester there was a meeting for all EC students interested in sport parachuting. Bill Freeman, ex-test jumper for the Marines called the meeting.

Freeman spent 8 years rigging and jumping all types. of parachutes and now holds the highest riggers license that is given. Bill said that he would be willing to give his time and knowledge for aU who would be interested in making jumps ..

Officers were chosen at the first meeting. Lewis Watson, local attorney was chosen president, Bill Freeman as safety officer, Jim Kee as secretary-treasurer and Tal Barr in charge of .publicity.

Jim Kee has written a constitution to be approved by the Parachute Club of America. All jumps in ehe locality of Ada must be approved by the. Federal Aviation Agency.

After making preparations at meetings every Tuesday night, a jump was scheduled for November 20, 1960 in Shawnee. Some of. the members who are ex-paratroopers began showing the other members how to make PLF's (Parachute Landing Fall) _ and to protect themselves when landing.

Letter To The Editor

"LINEBUCKING" IS FAIR

Following is a tongue-in-cheek comment on one campus situation:

In the last few weeks there have been a lot of complaints about people who "buck" the supper line in the cafeteria. It is time that someone said something in favor of "linebuckers."

After all, why should we wait in line when it is easier to just "buck" the line. It is actually unfair to those of us who can't make it to the cafeteria early, or can't wait for our turns in the line. It is unfair for other people to be first in line just because they happened to get there first.

These monitors I've been hearing about are an example of discriminatory practices, of favoritism. They

are just spies and tattletales. .

If someone wants to let his buddy in Iront of him that's his business; what right has anyone else to say that it is letting someone in front of him, too. Just one person being allowed in front of you isn't bad-s-it rsn't like

letting in half a dozen or so. . .

Finally, if a guy or girl can talk his or her way In, or if a guy can shove his way in, he should?e allowed to stay in line ahead of the others. After all, It takes talent to 'do this, and if someone bas ability> be should be allowed to use it, so long as it doesn't hurt other neonle,

and "linebucking" does not hurt anyone. JVR

First, a suggestion box will be placed in the administration building and one in the Student uru.OIt in lobe near future.

The Student Senate encourages an'}' student or faculty member to pI-ace any suggestion that he may have in one of the boxes.

The Senate will remove all suggestions- each week and consider each one equally. Suggestions considered Impraotieel will be discarded. Tho3e considered good will be given further consideration and placed for adoption 01' rejection by the Senate, Any sugge_;tion relating to student and' faculty matters is welcome.

The second idea is one of a devotional service for students and faculty.

With the approval of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Taff, the Student Senate decided to place prayer cards on '··e napkin holders in the cafeter-ia, Each prayer card will have a Catholic, Jewish and Protestant pl·ayer on it.

National Teachers Emblem

Printed below is the main content of a letter received recently from Dan F. DeLoache, EC BA History-'57:

. "Recentl:r I conducted a study of the education professl.on and discovered that despite the long history and high status the profession has achieved, professional educators have never adopted a national emblem to connotate their profession. Medical doctors, accountants, and lawyers nave done so-hut, for some reason teachers have never accomplished an emblem approval. This WaS a. shocking announcement to me for I had always con~ldered the teachi~g profession as a unified agency roragmg our great nation's future. Thus I decided to do my part to alleviate the situation.

"I wrote the NEA in Washington concerning the matter and they encouraged me to endeavor to establish a national educational insignia, or caduceus. They stated tbey would take official action on emblems presented tbel!' providing it was representative of the unified profession.c-cand acceptable to the official board.

"Consequently, I have been soliciting emblems from every source I can, trying to get a good cross-sectioned opinion to what would constitute an appronriate insignia. Thus far, I have received about six suggestions, hardly enough to warrant NEA approval.

"Would you encourage those interested at EC to take part? The faculty, students, art department and Future Teachers should be able to contribute. If they will mail their suggestions to me with their names and emblems defined they will receive credit for it should it be adopted."

Mr. DeLoache has pretty well stated his purpose in writing the letter and the editor is sure Mr. DeLoache will extend his invitation not only to those interested at EC but also any persons interested in gaining a national emblem for the teaching profession.

Mr. DeLoache's address is: Mr. Dan F. DeLoache, Conners State Agricultural College,. W.arner, Oklahoma.

Stegall is asking that students who plan to do student teaching in the first semester of 1961-62 (that's next Fall) make application with him. This started Monday and continues until April 4. After that time, his office hours will be from 8 to 8:30 a.m. only.

Those who apply early get first choice of the best of available practice ·teaching situations, StegaU suggests.

2. Surround ourselves with reo laxing influences - great music literature, art, a hobby, fellowship with nature.

For a college student past the freshman year, there must be grades o[ C or better in all courses taken at East Central and the eq ui v alen t for all courses transferred from other colleges.

Further, a student who drops any grade under C for a term or semester cannot thereafter benefit from such fees except under highIy extenuating circumstances.

And, in all cases, the students must need the assistance provided by the scholarships.

The dean of instruction of the college will check grades of all student, on these scholarships and at the end of each semester will report to the superintendent of schools on all such students from his district attending East Central.

The new student-teaching scholarships, added to those already available at East Central, widen the field of tuition aid to capable, deserving students and also recognize in a tangible way the contribution made by teacher supervisors and their school districts.

Player On 1909 E.C. Tea m Dies

Who, What, Where, Why, When Of Former Students

Death recently reached into the ranks of earlyday East Centralites and plucked a popular fellow who was a member of the first 09(9) football team.

M. B. IMaud] Donaghey, died suddenly at his home in Ozona, Tex. He retired about 1'h years ago after being affiliated with the Sinclair Oil Company 25 years.

Funeral services and burial were at Ozona March 15.

The Donagheys were closely tied in with East Central in those early days.

The lather, the late M. B. Donaghey, saw to it that part of the original campus o.f East Central was made available for the new two-year normal school back in 1909. The late Dan Hays contributed the other part of the original campus.

Sunrise Addition in Ada is a part of the Donaghey Indian allotment, and the big Donaghey borne at Tenth and Mississippi where a service station now stands was for years a landmark in northeast Ada. Later, under other ownership it provided rooms for many East Central students over the years.

"Chief" Donagbey, active in the Church of Christ, was helping with a building program of his church at Ozona at the time of his death.

He leaves the widow; four sons - Bill, well remembered as an outstanding independent, semipro and pro baseball pitcher, now at Sinton, Tex.; Col. Jim Donaghey, Ft. Benning, Ga.; Gene Louis Donaghey, Houston, Tex., and Tommy, Los Angeles; daughter, Lou Marje Harris, Charlotte, N.

Now that spring has moved in, summer isn't far distant - and with it, planning by many teachers {or full semester or workshop attendance.

East Central has lined up an attractive array of workshops for ]961.

Hundreds Here For Music Meet

For four days the campus was a musical spot as the annual East Central District Music Eliminations Meet moved through its big

schedule. .

Quantity was there, for entries ran into the hundreds in vocal and instrumental.

And qua1ity was there, too. for many vocalists, bands, instrumentalists and small ensembles met the stiff standards required for that raLing of 'superior' that means II trip to the state finals meet in April.

The junior high entries came througit' in fine fashion, too, although state rules this year end their competition at the district meet level.

Careful planning had the gigantic meet so well coordinated that seldom was any section of the contests behind schedule; daily, the competit.ion was over and everybody on the way home by late afternoon. Also, spreading the meet over four days took off some of the time pressure. '

Fourteen judges were required for the meet.

Many of those who took part will be back next years, and a goodly number of those who, still short of experience, came out with ratings of excellent or good, will be after 'superior' with more experience and training.

High Number Affiliated With

Of Students Churches

Approach of Religious Emphasis Week, scheduled April 10-14, brings a natural query as to what religious affiliations or preferences East Central students list.

Dean Mildred Ridling 'ran' the cards and came up with the information that of 1,393 undergraduale day students this spring, 1,239 have an affiliation or preference and only 104 are unspecified.

The Baptist lead out (in accompanying table all Baptist groups are included in one total) , with Methodists next and Church of Christ third.

The range is wide in denominational adherence and in numbers,

The list follows:

Affiliation Number

Assembly of God 20

Baptist (all groups) 659

G enn Miller Band Scores Big Success a Appearance

"J knew T might never get such • chance again, so I made the most of it - and it was an experience to remember happily in years to come."

Such was only one of the many cheerful comments among students following the Glenn Miller Dance Band's appearance on the East Central campus Mooday night.

The music alone was a delight.

Tigers Lose Two Games To Dolles U.

East Central baseball season got off to a slow start as the Tigers dropped two , games of a doubleheader to Dallas University basebailers at Dallas, March 15.

The game saw the Tigers uopre-] pared for the Dallas boys who because of warmer weather were more adavanced in their spring practice.

Both games were alike in that the Tigers seemed unable to get started. In the first game the Tigers almost held their own but in the second Dallas completely dominated play. The Tigers lost the first 10-6 and the second 17-4.

The Tigers play Austin College, Sherman, Tex., March 28 and then host Dallas March 30.

Tiger Tracksters Come in Fourth At Shawnee Meet

In their first match of tbe year Tiger tracksters didn't fare so well. In a four school meet that included EC, OBU, Southeastern and Langston, the Tigers came out in fourth place. The event was held at Shawnee and as in the case early in ~he year no really good times were turned in.

Despite the poor showing of team efforts several Tigers turned in some good showings in their separate events. Bob Martin was second in the 120 yard high hurdles and also won a second in the 220 yard low hurdles. Other Tigers placing in events included John Cooper, third place tie 220 yard dash; Mickey Via, fourth place javelin; Charles Burchell, third' place discus; Cahrles Burnett, second place tie high jump; and in the mile relay Bob Martin, Mike McElroy, Wayne Estes and Bill Trousdale came in third.

The next meet on the Tiger Track schedule is March 28 at Southwestern.

Golf Team Loses Season Opener ToO.B.U. Team

.A new sports event has been added to the sports curriculum of East Central this semester and it already has gained a footing. The new sport is golf and already the competition has become stiff. Under the coaching of Pat O'Neal, Tiger golfers are improving steadily.

A golf team consists of four members and the positions are gained by play-offs, much as in tennis. This year's team consists of Don Collier, first man; Jim Howe, second man; Jerry Wood, third man; Bob Cait, fourth man. Others competing for positions are Jerry Pearson and Vernon Landrith.

In their first match of the season with OBU, Tiger golfers lost the first three matches but won the last. Don Collier shot an 80 but was beaten with a 74, Jim Howe lost 84-78 and Jerry Wood lost by a 91-90 score. Bob Cail was the only Tiger golfer to win his match and his score was 89~98.

Popular tunes from another era when Glenn Miller himself had brought his band to a peak proved as appealing nowadays as when they first struck the happy fancy of millions of Americans.

The "name band" venture brought to East Central a considerabJe number of former students from the business and professional world. They entered into the dancing and the listening with pleasure obviously equalling that of the students.

BaJJ Room Overflows

The spacious Ball Room was unable to handle the swarm of dancing couples, and some of these moved into the adjacent Terrace Room.

Those who weren't dancing were in the Terrace Room, seated

about tables (and some of the earlier ones enterprisingly moved their chairs to the edge of the Ball Room for a full view of the band and of the dancers).

As for the band itselI, the or-ganization was tremendously successful, giving out with delightful music in full measure, until 11:30.

One indication of how attractive was the music was the way those attending stayed right 00 until the last note floated into the distance.

The musicians. everyone of them, were topnotchers and the vocalists superb.

Director Master Emcee

As for Ray McKinley. the director turned out to be a master emcee and, on the drums with which he originally built his way to fame in the dance band world, he was simply terrific.

One of the featured moments of the evening came when he invited everybody to 'gather around.' Two saxophonists staged a cleverly performed duet, then Bob Jones, one of the pair, stepped up and, with McKinley alternating and supporting with the drums. performed for five minutes with musical skill so remarkable that it brought a storm oC applause.

Townspeople, students, faculty members w ere unanimous in rating the coming of the band as an outstanding campus event, provldlag smooth blend of music that echoes yet to make it a memorable occasion with "I hope they come this way again" sentiment strongly felt,

Coach Names 12 Lettermen

Phillips Holds WRA Sports Day

Those earning letters are Don Archer, first year to letter: Jerald Barton, second; David Bass, first; Floyd Blair, second; Zane Bowan, third; \Jotton Davis, first; Buddy Kessinger, first; Gerald King, second; David Lee, second; Bill Mole, third: John Smith, second; and Morris Goodrich. third.

Blair, Mote and Goodrich are seniors and have completed their playas college cagers,

Archer, Davis and Kessinger are transfers completing their first yaaron the Tiger team.

David Bass was the ohly freshman to letter this season.

Only Five Show ForTennis Team

According to tennis coach, Lelanel Newton, only five boys have reported for the tennis team. This is quite a drop from last year's stiff competition on the courts. Coach Newton says, "1 can't understand why more of the boys haven't taken interest in playing. I know there are a lot of qualified players on the campus."

As it stands now Virgil Tipton, Moe MCKeel, Bob McCurley, Don Ables, and James Ross are the only boys to report. No positions have been designated yet but playoffs are to be held this week.

The Tigers are scheduled to play their first match April 1 against East Texas State College.

'Anne Frank' Staging Poses Many P oblems

Students working in the fortheoming East Central production of "The Dairy of Anne Frank" are finding it is just about the "busiest" play ever staged at the college.

First of all (and most important) are the nightly rehearsals. A east of 10 characters is tackling the task of making the trials of the Frank and Van Daan families come to life for their audience.

The s tor y depicts the experiences of the two Jewish families and a single man as they hide in three small rooms and an attic during the Nazi occupation of Holland during World War II.

All the eight people in hiding are on stage throughout almost the entire play - and all of them show the strain of- confinement and fear as time passes. The whole range of human emotion is present and changes in mood and temper come quickly.

Next - there's the stage crew. faced with the job of constructing one of the most complicated sets ever built on the East Central stage.

New members fo the Alpha Honor Society are selected by a separate blank.

Only one per cent of the student body is selected for Alpha Honor.

In genera] the feeling is that awards should be made on academic achievements rather than society.

Stimulating excellent I'C-

sponse - deep interest - thought. ful questions!

These are some of the phrases that came out of Religious Em· phasis Week on the East Central campus thi spring.

Attendance was good and grew; it grew at the three morning group meeting sessions and at the evening question and answer periods; and it grew from the Monday morning opening assembly to the Friday morning closing program.

Ministers who assisted said that OICY felt that the response was excellent and praised the students for the deep interest they revealed In thir close attention and in the kind of thought-provoking questions they asked.

So the new system in general seems to have brought favorable reaction, say those who were in charge.

Numerous students and a number of faculty members aided in carrying out the presiding, prayer, music and other portions of the programs.

Further, the very response of the students indicates that they were ready to recognize and to have their knowledge expanded

of the relevance of religion, to daily life and to world crisis.

Ministers taking part included Rev. Ralph Crawford, Ada Trinity Baptist: Rev. J. Glore Reneau, Ada First Methodist, Rev. Amos Myers, Ada First Christian; Rev. Frank Jones, Ada Assembly of God; Rev. Russell B. West, Ada Pentecostal Holiness; The Rev. John Ashby, Ada st. Luke's Episcopal, Rev. John Paul ICing, Ada Asbury Methodist; Rev. Dorvill Tabb, Ada Oak Avenue Baptist:

Math Quiz Box

If yo.u couldn't find a Quiz Box in the last issue of the Journal, you were right There wasn't any. Somehow the time slipped up on us and we didn't get one in the Journal on time. That is too bad. too, because we haven't much more time this year. We will let this be our last problem to be solved and then we will have one more Quiz Box to announce the winner o( the contest tor

, this year. It is a close race and 'the last Quiz"Box may decide it.

The response to our geometry problem was gratifying, to say the least. We were afraid that it was too difficult, but a lot of students worked it. What was even more surprising, was that the problem was done in so many different ways. Stonewall High School, which hadn't been participating in our quiz box this year haf three students send In solutions and they were very Interesting solutions, too. They were also. the first to come in. Those sending in solutions were: Jerry Toney, Pat Toney, and Charles Oakley, Stonewall; Gary Emo.re, Sulphur; C. G. Allen, Paul Nan, Joe Joseph, Seminole; C. M. Tho mas, Wynnewood, James King, Haskell; Keith Eaton. Stroud; and Luther Cowan, Okemah. Late solutions of the previous problem that have not been reported come from from David Roberson, Seminole.

Since our geometry problem went so well, we will end up the season with another geometry problem. This will be a construction problem. You don't get much construction work in high school geometry, but maybe you can do this one anyhow. Here is the problem: Construct a circle that will be tangent to a given cirle and to a given line a t a given point rm tbe line.

The 'Peace Corps'

The Peace Corps, first proposed by President Kennedy in a campaign speech last November, was formally created by Executive Order the last of February with the President's brother-in-law, R. Sargent Shriver, serving without pay as its director. Recently the President, in a televised interview, and Mr. Shriver, at a news conference, filled in details on the corps' objectives and its prospects.

The objective is to send young Americans to work in the newly developing areas of the .world-in Africa, Asia and Latin America-where there is a tremendous shortage of trained and skilled manpower. Peace Corps volunteers will be sent only to nations which request them. They will be engaged in five programs: teaching, health projects, rural development projects, construction and industrial projects, and government administration. The initial emphasis will be on teaching. They will live with the people they are helping, "in modest circumstances, avoiding all conspicious consumption."

Administration policy will prohibit any use of the Peace Corps for religious missionary purposes, or by the Central Intelligence Agency. The program is not designed as a propaganda operation or as a means of spreading American influence on the local political scene.

The work of the Peace Corps will be coordinated through colleges and universities, U. S. Government, United Nations and voluntary agencies, and through programs with host countries. They will onerate only at the invitation of the host countries and they will work largely under their authority.

Most workers will be young college graduatesv although there will be no rigid age or educational reouirements. People with trade skills-in construction or home .economics, for example-are just as welcome as those with college degrees.

In addition to a minimal living allowance workers will receive $50 or $75 a month, probably at the end of service which will be two to three years. In t.he case of the iiving expenses, if the worker is a teacher be will get enough money to live as do the 10~al teachers. . .

Although there will be no automatic draft exempt~on for Peace Corps duty, it has been stated that barrmg some national crisis the corpsmen would prob,ably be able to get indefinite deferments if they ~ork 10 . s?1ne occupation "in the national interest." These occupations would presumably include government service or teach-

DR. BILL J. TILLMAN

Bill J. Tillman, East Central graduate and, since September of 1958, a member of the college faculty, Department of Geogra-

- pby, recently completed all requirements for a doctor of education degree at Oklahoma State University.

Dr. Tillman is a 1947 East Central graduate, received his- master's from O. S. U. in 1948, and taught for ten years at Murray State College, Murray, Ky., hefore coming to the faculty here. He is a veteran of Wodd War n.

At the end of the present semester, he will become dean of students, succeeding T. K. Treadwell .•

Tillman's doctoral dissertation was the result of "Investigation of the Campus Role of the Married Students.

He found that these students, as a group, have a higher grade average than the non-marrieds, that they score better on achievement tests in entrance examinations than the others with the same ability. that more of them are selfsupporting (here working wives add a lot); however, most of them sacrifice a lot in having to give

EC'Nine Splits Double Header At Southeastern

Tigers Split Another; his Time With OBU

The Tigers added another win to their record as they split a double header with the Southeastern Savages on the Savage's home field April 22.

In the first game the Tigers couldn't seem to make things go right and were unable. to tally a single run during the whole seven innings. . .

The Savages meanwhile had taken advantage of the Tiger's slow start and by the end of seven innings had managed to accumulate a 3--0 lead for the win.

What the Tigers lacked in the first game they made up for in the second. They started things off with a bang by going ahead 2-0 in the top of the first inning.

SOutheastern came right back in the bottom of the first inning and tied It up at 2-2.

This was short lived, however, for the Tigers came up with six more runs in the second to take the lead 8·2 and added one more ill the top of the seventh.

However, Southeastern was still alive aO(1' with a Tiger lead of 94 in the bottom of the seventh started a big rally scoring four runs, but it wasn't enough to surpass the Tiger lead and the Tigers won the contest 9-8.

Degree Candidate Worked But Never Quit School

Summer Session Begins June 5

In 1945, Betty Bingamon was graduated from Ada High School.

This month, 16 years, a husbano, two sons, regular employment throughout and 18 semesters of college attendance later. Mrs. Betty Ely will complete work far a degree at East Central State College.

As is evident, those intervening years have been busy ones, but Mrs. El~ after one year in college following IUgh school, and picking up how's credit in night classes, afternoon classes, morning classes - whatever fitted her working schedule - is finishing with an admirable 3.5 grade average.

In the summer of 1946, she was employed in the credit office of Montgomery ward and planned III return to full college study in the fall. But therr she met Richard Ely - and they were married in December of that year.

In Novermber she called Louis Long, then owner of the Retail Merchants Association, and h hired her over Ule phone. She worked fulltime there until 1953, when Richard Wayne was born; 15 months later, Stephen was adde{' to the family. Since, Mrs. Ely has worked regularly but parttime in her dialy schedule. Five years ago Mr. Ely bougbt the Retail Merchants Association, but shr continued with Long, who established a loan business a 1 that time.

She chuckles that "it took me owr ten years to get out of pub· lic $C~~I! .and the rest of my life

to ~pt out. Of college'." .

"In iii way, ioiBll to sclIo9l aIId

looking after a husband and two small boys has been my hobby," she continues. "I've had to forego a lot of other things, of course."

Howevt'r, she has a new hobby already set out for her. She will be president of Washington Grade Schoor Society next year, and as the society is setting up plans for a lunch room at the school, she is already "up to her ears" in planning for that.

She graduates with a degree in business education, with a minor ~n mathemathcis, and with a teachmg certificate, but doesn't plan to teach unless circumstances alter so as to make such a chru.~e advisable.

Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W.

A. Bingamon, live at 1418 Arlington Drive, Ada.
