It begin s w ith a shock ... not always w hen yo u first arri ve . . . but it comes to you . Yo u are alone. M ore so than ever befo re in you r life ... yo u are re sponsible for your success or failure . You r spirit soars wi th the successes and plu m足 mets w ith the failures. Then it happens; you meet those sp ec ial people w ho genuine ly care about t he stranger inside you all t hese years . W it h their help and with fear of the unknown you move into t he territory o f your inner self. What do you like? What do you rea lly w ant out o f life? A nd w hy? A lways ... w h y? You ma y not know it yet, but that is the reason you came. Not iust to learn t hat special knowledge in your f ield of study t hat usually comes w ith a sh eepsk in in fou r o r fi ve years . .. b ut you f ail o r suc足 ceed at college and at life by a talent o f knowing and controlling yourself .

By the second year everything has changed The buildings aren't so bewi ldering and profes­ sors aren't the ogres you had thought the y w ere ... or else they are that bad and worse, but any­ way ... now ... you know for sure, you aren 't just guessing. Your outlook on the future has reversed from last year. You are cer­ tain 'low o r you are no longer cer­ tain . The buildings, the administra­ tion, the professors, and your fu­ ture haven't changed at all. It's you .. . you've changed. You join organizations and frater­ nities . You are less afraid to state your opin ion, and there are people on campus w ho know you ... and who will listen .

You beg in to develop a pattern in study habits. You choose your pro­ fessors carefully and with more con­ fidence in your choice because now you know them, o r at least, you know someone who does. The general courses in your schedule are about gone now in this second year. By the third year it's going to be hard to change your maior . You always wanted to go in­ to that field ... and now you real­ ize that you didn't even know what it was all about. It'll take you lo nge r to graduate if you change ... and that may mean delaying marriage, more worry about military service, money problems, and a million other little details ... but even so, a switch now only means an extra year, rather than a lifetime of un ­ happiness.

You burst into the third year with enthusiasm. The Course of action you decided on in you r first two years wi ll become perma nent by the third. The clubs, fra ternities and sorori足 t ies you joined earlier have either become a big part of your life ... or you've dropped them. You're run足 ning for office, being appOinted to t he important committees, and in general, taking more responsibi lities.

Experiences you're receiving wi th these new responsibilities are begin足 ning to rub off. You studied about depreciation in business ... now, w hen you have to come up wi th t he money to replace the ice box in the fraternity house, the memo machine for the club or redecorate the religious center . .. it becomes real. You find out that leadership is a real burden, as well as a pleasure. Others are watching you, looking up to you. Now you're known to the facult y and the administration ... the y know somet hing about you , what type of person you are. You've picked out your favorites, too. You drop by their office occas ionally and just talk or maybe join them for coffee in the CUB. lifelong, valuable friendships are developing here that wi ll enrich your life permanently.

Finally it comes ... you're a sen足 ior. Years of hard work and plan足 ning are about to climax with the honor, prestige, social and financial rewards that usually come with a college degree. You begin to feel differently about your place at NLSC as your senior year begins ... you fee l less a part of the surroundings than in your junior year. You se nse the loss that is soo n to come. Lit!le things like the college song, the motto ... they are not quite .as corny as you used to think. You get many tempting o ffers now from a continually expanding job market w ith a voracious appetite for college graduates .. . they come in multitudes, offering an unbeliev足 able variety of ca reers. Decisions come hard now ... you must first decide on wh ethe r an advanced degree would fit your goals better.

15


As a graduate student, you can remain within the protective atmos足 phere of the home that replaced home ... your alma mater. Again it wi ll involve sacrifices of valuable time .. . but the dividends paid by that advanced degree are consider足 able. But the day finally comes when you must part company with the in足 stitution that nurtured and broad足 ened you from an unprepared high school senior to a prepared college graduate who will soon make his niche in the most dynamic society that the world has ever known. As you leave the campus for the final time to meet you r destiny and first Bayou DeSiard passes out of sight, then Olin Hall shining in the distance also fades away, perhaps the three words found on the motto of NLSC pass through your mind .. . Seek the Truth ... and you add, seek the truth about yourself.

Registration : Innovations Made On the great, expan­ sive Northeast campus, only finals are dreaded more than the nightmare of registrat ion. But tha t was last yea r. Ste ady im­ provem ents ha ve cut the average registration time to less than an hour . A student now picks up his packet in Brown Gym, goes to his department head for checking, and fi ­ nally. to Brown Annex where fees are paid . Further simp lifications are a one-ca rd packet and pre-registration for grad­ uating seniors. P.S.... Saturday cl as­ ses are slowly on the way out.

Miss La . Pageant: Miss Northeast Captures Title Susanne Saunders, an 18-year­ old from Shreveport, brought honor to NLSC when she was crowned Miss Louisiana of 1969. Miss Saun­ ders entered the pageant as Miss Northeast . She is the fifth NLSC co­ ed to b ecome Miss Louisiana in sev­ en years . Among her prizes were an all­ expense paid trip to Atlantic City, a Miss America car and a $ 1200 scholarship. Other Northeast co-eds in the Miss Louisiana Pageant were Sandra Lynn Garner, Joyce Lynn McGuire, Cheryl Patrick and Pal Trudnak.

Homecoming: Victory Over USL Climaxes Activities Homecoming, the height of the football season, is a family occasio n . .. NLSC's family. The students, their families, professors, adminis足 trators, staff, and the alumni are gathered for one huge family re足 union.

There are giant displays showing the "enemy" in complete defeat. USL, the victim this year, went down 20 to 7. NSLC's last homecoming bonfi re o n campus was burned this year. A city ordinance will prevent future displays , but bonfires may be held beyond the stadium out of city limits.

25


Controversy: Bookstore Bill Ends Student Apathy Normal Student indifference to campus affairs van足 ished last fall following an administration proposal to change the student book purchasing system. The usually quiet S.G.A. meeting found an audience of some 500 students at its November 12th meeting. The meeting, a heated but orderly one, lasted for over 3 hours . Vice足 President James Nicholson and other administrators were present to discuss the bookstore bill. Earlier the Pow Wow had incorrectlv stated the bill and had endorsed it. It later retra cted 'its endorsement. Opposing the bill, which was referred back to com足 mittee and later changed, was the NLSC chapter of the American Association of University Professors.

26


"News" and "Reachout": Additional Publications Appear on Campus The 1968 bookstore bill of the administration stirred up a hornet's nest, eventually bringing up questions of free enterprise, student rights and administration cen­ sorship, to name a few . This protest took two different ma jor forms . Reachouf an underground newspaper (al­ though the names of the paper staff were on it) came into sight on campus. The front page of the paper car­ ried a picture of President George Walker . News a cam­ pus recogni zed publication of the NLSC Young Republican Club also appeared , taking a similar view on the book­ store bill . Reachouf did not come out with a second edition, but News w hich claimed to be a second vo ice for the students continued. It carried campus news, political infor­ mation and club news of the YR club.

Christmas : Many Parties Are Held The Christmas season is probably NLSCs most festi ve occasion. The men's dorms have long practiced an open house at each dorm to which the men may bring dates. The wom­ en's dorms had individual parties in­ stead of the group party that they have had in the past.

Union Board: Concerts and Dances Presented With funds coming from the stu­ dent acti vity fund, the Union Board attempts to spread their events into as many offerings as they can which are as varied as possible. This year the board presented the Excuses for a registration dance, the Platters in Concert at the Civic Cen­ ter, the Cheques for a Wreck Tech dance, Paul Anka in Concert at the Civ ic Center, Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Lettermen in late spring, and co-sponsored the Globetrotters and James Brown at the Civic Cen­ ter.

Construction: Many Additions Made At NLSC The amazing growth of NLSC con­ tinued this year in spite of severe ;tate-wide financial problems. Brown Hall, NLSC's oldest building, unde.­ went extensive renovation.

Acros:.:

the bayou, a large physical educa­ tion and gymnasium center was be­ ing constructed. But the college's biggest proiect was the giant ad­ ministration-classroom building cost­ ing some $3,000,000. The structure features a 103 foot emphasis tower to become the central foca I point on campus. It was "christened" in February by the old European cus­ tom of planting a tree at the highest point.

Campus Productions : ROMANOFF AND JULIET, TOM JONES Presented Plays and theater productions were numerou s and varied in 1968­ 69 at NLSC. The variety of plays of­ fered was increased by the addition of one-act plays, directed and pro­ d uced by NLSC stud ents . Last summer, the Speech Depart­ ment rented the Strauss Playhouse and staged two children's plays, The Unwicked W itch and Heidi . In the fa II, the Wesley Foundation " Faith and life Forum" was the scene of nine one-act productions in­ cluding, RaiSin in the Sun, Warrior's Husband , Summer and Smoke, No Time for Sergeants, Bald Soprano, M ira cfe Worker, Of Mice and Men, Pair of Lunatics, and The Women. Biedenharn Auditorium was the site of two major campus produc­ tions, Romanoff and Juliet, in the fa ll, and Tom Jones, in the spring .

Mardi Gras: Event Held at Civic Center "Mardi Gras in the French Quar足 ter" was the theme of the 1969 Mardi Gras Ball. Sponsored by Phi Delta Chi pharmacy fraternity, the event is a masquerade ball and is one of the major social functions of the year. Cou ples in weird costumes mi xed and gyrated among couples in formal dress, as the music of the " Dynamics" filled the room. After the queen was crowned, authentic New O rleans parade favors were tossed in large quantities to the audience . Then a parade of gaily attired couples foll owed , with three coup les chosen and awarded prizes for the best cos tumes. The Civic Cen足 ter, site of the ball, was elegantly decorated with standa rd R and X pharmacy symbo ls, 400 of which had been cut out, painted and hung by the fraternity from the ceiling .

Military Boll: Annual Event Features Civil War Theme The Military Ball brought March in like a lion, with what was proba­ bly the biggest formal dance in the college's history. Ove r 1400 persons attended the event at the Civic Cen­ ter, w hich w as sponsored by Scab­ bard and Blade military honor fra­ ternit y. Bill Butler's Combo and the Ex­ cuses, two to p regional bands, played alternately. Silhouettes o f fighting men , both the Blue and the Gray, were suspended from the cei l­ ing and ringed the walls, developing the event's Civil War theme . Confed­ erate flag s hung fro m the ceiling and each table was crossed by a red, w hite, and blue ribbon and a se pa­ rate battle scene. Midway in the ball, the Queen, Christy McClelland was crowned by Col. Alton Taylor, PEMS of NLSC. The eighteen ROTC sponsors and their officers were al so presented.

Dorm Life: An Education in Itself The average college student (if there is any such thing) lives behind those great, gray bastions of college authority. It is w ithin these wa ll s that he o r she lives and dies a thou足 sand times. Students share the constant grind of study ing, the frustration of exams, and then the waiting. They get half of their education here, much of it in the famou s "bull sessions ." They learn that some frogs can walk on land, aphrodisiacs weren't quite what they thought the y were (pharmacy majors) and that their girl friend or boy friend isn't completely the irs.

Off Campus Students: Freedom Involves Extra Responsibility When students manage to move off campus, a feat that's not easy, they have much more perso na l freedo m. Unfortunately they also have many more responsi bilities. It's great to have a big weekend party, but, ah, then there comes the clean­ ing up. Getting to class o n time can pre­ sent a problem . StudYing too, be­ cause of the ma n y o ther pleasant possibilities, may be hard. But there's always living off cam­ pus with fa mily or relatives. In which case you can usually forget abou t the parti es, late classes . . . and ex­ tra freedom.

Reserve Officer Training Corps: Men Prepare for Military Leadership The Reserve Officer Training Corps is a system by which students learn the basic procedures of military operations. It consists of classroom instruc­ tion as well as weekly drill periods. A ll men stu­ dents are required to take at least two years of basic R.O.T.e. training; however, advanced train­ ing is available for those cadets who are interest­ ed and who meet certain requirements . A cad et graduating in Advanced R.O.T.e. automatically re­ cei ves a commission as a second lieutenant in the United States Army. Working in coordination wi th the R.O.T.e. cadets is the Sponsor Corps . It is the respon sibility of these girls to appear at all military functions and drills. Each spring a girl is chosen from the Sponsor Corps to reign as the Military Ball Queen.

Student Government Association: S.G.A. Is Challenged by Bookstore Incident The NLSC Student Government As­ sociation is the political representa­ tive of Northeast students. Elected once every year by pop­ ular vote, representatives are grouped within each school accord­ ing to the school's enrollment. The SGA, in attempts to represent phases of student life, met weekly in the CUB auditorium or SGA office and w restled with problems of stu­ dent life, and growth of the college. This year the student senators dealt with a worsening state-wide fi­ nancial crisis. In addition , the "book­ store incident" created new pres­ sures, but brought masses. of stu­ dents to the realization of SGA im­ portance to them.

Union Board: U.B. Granted an Office Organized last year to assume the problem of arranging entertain­ ment for the student body, the Union Board experienced much re­ organ ization this year. The board is now open to_ all stu­ dents who w ish to join, with no lim­ it on the number of members. With the hope of making better publicity available the board bought a poster-making machine w hich can produce posters for student organi­ zations for a small fee. About the middle of the semes­ ter, the Union Board got its own of­ fice, next to the SGA room. Hard work ing student volunteers put in many hours try ing to get we ll­ known speakers and entertainer s, as well as provide dances for the stu­ dents.

POW WOW : Largest Campus Paper in State The Pow Wow, NLSC's student newspaper, is the only single link between the administration, the fac足 ulty and the students. Often contro足 versial, but rarely boring, the Pow Wow is a weekly disseminator of campus news and a history of it. Much late night typing and lay足 out drawing account for the success of the Pow Wow w ith its readers. The September 20th copy of the campus paper this year was th e largest campus newspaper, copy足 wise, in the history of the state.

CHACAHOULA: Staff Works Hard to Meet Deadlines The Chac staff's aim is to pro­ duce for the student body a photo­ graphic memory of the school year. What does thi s mean? It means a staff with endurance, imagination , creativeness, and above a ll , pa­ tience. It means he adaches, frustra­ tion, dedication , determination . It consists of unorganized organ­ ization, confused staff meetings, scheduling pictu res, rescheduling pictures, and much , much more. When the fina l deadline is met, the staff thinks back over the year and wonders how it all cou ld possibly have gotten done. " No, it wasn't a miracle-iu st a lot of hard work!" Then-they a ll smile .

Dixie Wh ite, Head Coach

Ralph Lane, Defensive Backfield Coach

Bill Dolson, Offensive line Coach

Football: A Young Team In Search of a Championship Northeast went into the 1968 foot­ ball season with the longest w in­ ning streak among Lou isia na col­ leges and universities. This w as prob­ abl y the factor that made the team the pre-season pick to w in the Gulf States Conference champions hip. Th e conference battle later took a sudden turn with the upsurgin g of­ fense of the University of South­ western Louisiana and the nation's leader in offense, Louis iana Tech. As the season came to a .close the North east In dians found themselves in a ti e for second place in the con­ ference standings. Alter th e se ason coach Dixie White expressed hi s eva luat ion of the season by say ing, " We w ere proud of our squad. They hu stled , they worked hard, and we had a good season."

l ynn LeBlanc, Defensive Line Coach

Texas at Arl ington: A Tough Opener Northeast opened its football sea足 son by facing one of the nation's highest rated teams in small college football, the University of Texas at Arlington. Tribe halfback Joe Profit estab足 lished himself as one of the biggest threats in Gulf States Conference play in the 24-1 4 opening loss . Prof足 it hand led the ba ll four times in the game, picking up 82 yards, including a 71-yard touchdown jaunt for the first score of the season for the Tribesmen. AI Miller, ali-<:onference end, hauled in a Steve Mansur pas s for the other Indian tally.

Stephen F. Austin: An Offensive Surge For Indians Another Texa s opponent provid­ ed the competition for the Indians' first home contest of the 1968 sea­ son.

With the aid of four sprinters capable of running the 100-yard dash under 10 seco nds , Stephen F. Austin was a dangerous foe. Bouncing back from the loss only a week before, the Tribesmen turned the tide on the Texans by a surpris­ ing margin of 42-0. The young de­ fensive unit of the Indians, pre­ viou sly considered of doubtful qual­ ity, proved itself effective in the shutout. The offensive unit played its best game of the season with the aerial circus of Steve Mansu r' s passing and the running of Joe Profit and com­ pany .

Northwestern: A Game Of Defense Northwestern began the season as a top team on the passing of Don Guidry and the running of Vic Nyvall. The Indians' clash with the Northwestern team was picked to be one of the highest scoring games of the season. The predictions were wrong as the game turned ou t to be the lowest scoring game of the season in the GSC, a 7-3 loss for the NLSC squad. The game was a tough defeat for the Indians as they d rew first blood on the kicking toe of Clark Blake. The Demons came back later in the second quarter with a to uchdown , and defense was the name of the game for the remainder of the battle.

Quantico Marines : A Long Victory Trip Northeast took its longest road trip in hi story to play the Quantico Marines, their fir st non-college op足 ponent, in Quantico, Va. The game proved to be a rebound for the Tribesmen as they came up with a 13-0 victory, with the help of the kicking toe of ex-Marine Clark Blake, who kicked two fie ld goa ls and a conversion point . The young defensive backfield al足 so proved themselves as reco rd set足 ters by intercepting four enemy aer足 ials in the game alo ne.

Brashe r

McNeese: A Last Minute Win Northeast's Indians got a long­ overdue assist from the law of av­ erages to beat conference opponent McNeese and vault back into the title race. The Tribesmen took a 21-14 vic­ tory in the last 45 seconds of the game by converting an intercepted pass into a touchdown. Mansur and Profit kept the In­ dian offense rolling as Mansur com­ pleted 8 of 17 passes for 75 yards and Profit remained the leading rush­ er in the Gulf States Conference by picking up 149 yards.

Southeastern: A Win Interceptions

by

Dan Brewer was back at Sou th 足 eastern for another season and that cou ld mean another season of pass足 ing records for the GSC, since he was voted as "Most Outstanding Back" last year. Northeast's young defensive unit again proved to be victors over the dynamic Dan by spoiling the South足 eas tern homecoming and bringing a 13-0 win back home to the North足 eas t reservation.

USL: Greatest Win Of the Season Homecoming has always been a specta cular event at NLSC and is alwa ys a more exciting event w ith a football v icto ry of great impor足 tance . Such was the case fo r the 1968 season. The victory o ver Southwest足 ern was one of the most ou tsta nding o f the season for the Tribesmen. Wi th th e powerful running o f half足 back, Joe Profit, and fullback, Van Lambert, Northea st knocked USL out of the conference lead with a 20-7 victo ry . This made the Indians sole possessors of first place in the con足 ference wi th a 3- 1 reco rd.

After taking the back-seat role for a few weeks, the Northeast de足 fense had to polish up for former He isman trophy winrer Roger Stau足 bach of Pensacola Navy. As coach Dixie White put it: " It's like getting ready for the Dallas Cowboys." The defensive uni t proved its poi nt in the game by intercept ing three of Jolly Roge r's passes and ro il足 ing to a 31- 14 victo ry. As for the offensive side of the game for the Indians, Rubin Jones ca me off the bench to set up the first Indian tally with a 44-yard re足 ception and later caught a 35-yard TD aerial from Steve Man su r.

193


Delta State: A Disappointing Loss Still riding on top of the Gulf States Conference, Northeast trav足 eled to Cleveland, Miss., fo r the fi足 na l road game of the season against Delta State. By showing a weak defense and sluggish offense the Indians dropped a 10-3 decision to the Sta tes men , labeled as "our worst game since I've been here" by head men足 tor Dixie White.

194


Tech: A Defeat That lost a Championship A "must game" was the only way to describe the final game of the seaso n for the Indians. The stage was set fo r possibly the first Gulf States Conference Championship in t he his足 tory of the school. The opponent was a traditional rival and the na tion's leade r in offense, Louisiana Tech . The powerful offense of the Bull足 dogs proved to be too strong for the NLSC defense by scoring a 25- 10 victory for the Bul ldogs and earn ing a trip to the Grant la nd Rice Bow l.

Northwestern : Indians, Demons Even in Two GSC runner-up Northwestern seemed to have a championship in mind as they came on strong to hand the Indians a 69-88 loss in Natchitoches despite the 18 points and 16 rebounds by Steele. When the two teams met in Indian territory the story was changed somewhat as the Tribe set a school record by dumping in 46 field goals and run足 ning away with a 107-80 victory. Larry Saulters was the pacemaker w ith 27 points.
