1964 Numa Dedicated to Hoyle C. Carolan Because of his friendliness, his devotion to his duties at Fort Smith Junior College; and because he has served the school for many years as a faculty member, the Numa Staff and its sponsors dedicate the 1964 Numa to Mr. H. C. Carolan.

With a cup of coffee in one hand and a cigarette in the other, Mr. Carolan trudges back to class in the rain.

HOYLE CLEM CAROLAN

Whether lecturing to his classes or giving helpful suggestions, H. C. Carolan is always ready to give valuable assistance to students.


Experienced caller H. C. Carolan sponsors the FSJC Square Dance Club, a group of interested square dancers who practice every Monday night.

Learning the perplexing square dance patterns and movements as taught by H. C. Carolan is more of a task than most casual onlookers realize.




Board of T r u s t e e s Moves Onward HUGH HARDIN Chairman of the Board.

Unselfishness and diligence characterize the work of the members of the Board of Trustees, the guardians of Fort Smith Junior College. With the best interest of the college and its students in mind, these men have led the school forward for many years.

DONALD FLANDERS Vice-Chairman

The satisfaction of helping education is the reward for these outstanding men, who work in many different fields. Faced with the responsibility of formulating the policies of the college, they strive to make decisions that will benefit the school now and in future years.

President Vines Leader in Junior Colleges Under the leadership of Dr. E. T. Vines, Fort Smith Junior College is becoming a model for community colleges in the state. Dr. Vines has spent much of his time studying the concept of the junior college and its application in the community college. Returning from a summer of lecturing in North Carolina, he began work immediately on an addition to the Technical School and early in 1964 he announced plans for the construction of a fieldhouse adjacent to the Jeffrey Boy's Club. Dr. Vines continues to support actively the trend toward the community college by working to create an atmosphere of Academic excellence and outstanding technical achievement at F. S. J. C.

Concerned with the future of the College Dr. Vines contemplates the wide scope of the Community College concept.

Ready to face any problem squarely and to take the appropriate action, Dr. Vines meets the many challenges of the presidency. 10



College is Served by Three Deans Mr. Thomas E. Fullerton has been everything to Fort Smith Junior College: teacher, counselor, dean, public relations expert-but this year he has been given the official title of Dean of the College. This doesn't mean that he'll have fewer duties, but that he'll have more. Sometime this spring Dean Fullerton will meet and talk to every high school student body in the Fort Smith area, complete a new catalogue, schedule classes for day and night school, supervise registration-What we're trying to say is that F. S. J. C. is a better place because of him. T. E. FULLERTON, B.A., M.A. Dean of the College

Deans Fullerton and Breedlove confer with President Vines concerning construction which is soon to begin on the new student parking lot.


Dean of Women has the sound of dignity. This is true of Lucille Speakman, Dean, of Women, Fort Smith Junior College. In the past, as a teacher, and now as dean and teacher, she is an example for both men and women. Aside from her duties as an administrator, Dean Speakman carries a heavy teaching load, meeting classes in Western Civilization and Sociology each day. It isn't unusual to see a line of students outside her office door waiting to give oral book reports.

LUCILLE SPEAKMAN B.A., M.A. Dean of Women

SHELBY BREEDLOVE B.S.E., M.S.E. Dean of Men

Have you ever seen Coach Breedlove angry? With his team two points behind and ten seconds left on the clock, our Dean of Men exhibits the same self-control he has toward all situations. In the Dean's office or on the basketball court he is the dynamic image of a young man completely in control of himself and his environment. Coach Breedlove also teaches. He instructs classes in Health and Safety and Sports Fundamentals and is presently involved with the problem of erecting a new fieldhouse.


History of FSJC Fort Smith Junior College was organized in 1928 under the supervision of the Board of Education of the Fort Smith School System. Housed originally in the Stadium of Fort Smith High School, the college slowly continued its growth. In 1952, the college moved to its present location with eight faculty members. Today, the college has 29 faculty members, offers courses in 24 different fields, and has a student enrollment of over 1500.

The Administration building is one of the original buildings on this site.


Seen at night, Old Main's lights serenely reflect the idea of study.

Before 1952, Old Main was a part of the Sebastian County Home for the Poor. 15


Remaining one of the most popular buildings on the campus, the Student Center still provides a haven of rest for the biggest student body in the history of the school.

Operating on almost an "around-the-clock" basis, the Student Center's facilities are used by both day and night school students whose enrollment figures are near equal.

Looking East from the Administration building, two of the newer additions to the FSJC plant include the Fine Arts and Library buildings.


Many FSJC students commute to school daily from outlying towns in the Fort Smith area.

Campus Reflects Old Traditions: New Progress

Few people realize the amount of students that attend classes after dark. The FSJC night school program is designed to provide the opportunity for those who work during the day to gain college credits.

Campus Scenery

Reflects "People"

A new addition to the faculty, Logan Green not only directs the FSJC Choir but also gives individual voice instructions. Hoping to glean further information than that which usual classroom discussion provides, Gary Boyd and instructor Robert Amos demonstrate the closer studentinstructor relationship that exists at FSJC.

Each year, the classes of FSJC get bigger and bigger, but determined instructors still take time to give individual attention to their students.

Sooner or later, almost every faculty member stops by Room F-104 to chat with James "Pete" Howard, art instructor (left) This time it happened to be Robert Runner, social science instructor, and H. C. Carolan, speech instructor.

Looking every bit as unfriendly as he isn't, Dean T. E. Fullerton always takes time out to visit the various departments of the College.

A typical FSJC instructor, Robert Runner is always ready to help students learn more about his chosen field.

Demonstrating the i n d i v i d u a l attention given students at FSJC, Mrs. Betsy Altman pauses to clarify an English assignment. 20

Each student who graduates from F.S. J.C. must take courses in the field of English. Basic knowledge in this area is necessary in order for one to understand and appreciate his rich cultural heritage and to communicate his ideas to other people. For the more advanced students there are courses such as Masterpieces of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, taught by Dr. S. H. Blakely. An opportunity to develop skills in writing and editing is given to students who choose to work on the student publications. Miss Bobby Woods supervises the journalism activities.


Earphones provide invaluable assistance to these students who take advantage of the newly equipped foreign language listening room.

Department of Business and Secretarial Science The purpose of the Department of Business is to educate young men and women for positions of leadership and service in private business and nonbusiness organizations. Fundamental knowledge is gained here in F.S.J.C. that enables students to maintain an uninterrupted study at any four-year school. Electric typewriter, rotary calculators, and other business machines are used in the secretarial science courses to give vital training to the student. Mrs. Tom Pryor, who has completed residence work at the University of Arkansas for the Ph.D., is a new instructor this year in business. Mrs. James Winn, a graduate of North Eastern Oklahoma State College, has joined the department this year.

MRS. TOM PRYOR B.S.B.A., M.B.A.

Department of Fine Arts The arts are man's only valid means of self expression. Throughout history, from the cave to the skyscraper, he has, in some way or another, incorporated his art with his living. Art is personal, and the creative urge must have complete freedom. There is this atmosphere at Fort Smith Junior College and it is the purpose of the Fine Arts Department Faculty to perpetuate it. Music, Speech, and Art were departmentalized this year and all activities in these various fields are being coordinated.

Coordination of the fine arts is relatively simple, for the goals of all are basically the same. Logan Green, who is new to the faculty, and teaches Choir and Public School Music, plans, with Mr. Carolan, to present a joint production in music and drama sometime in the future. Drawing and Painting, Art History, Public School Art, and Introduction to Art are taught by James Howard. The latter course is new and is designed to meet requirements of the four year colleges in this area. 29

Green Named New Director Of FSJC Choir Reorganization under the new director and the formation of a Mixed Octet from the members of the choir, were two of the steps necessary for the preparation of Choir programs. Early in October the Choir appeared on local T.V. and later they made a short tour to College of the Ozarks. Several outstanding programs were presented locally. Green proved an outstanding group could be achieved during his first year at FSJC. Members of the Octet were: Janie Carroll, Wanda Furr, Rita Gibson, Mary Massagee, Linda Klober, Paul Stafford, Mark Mankin, Wayne Purdom, and James Hannah.


Department of Education and Psychology Learning to work with people is a challenge. The

Department

of

Education and

Psychology trains students not only to teach but to guide and counsel. Claud Snow, new instructor in this Department, will receive his Ed.D. degree in the Spring of 1964. Shelby Breedlove, in the area of Physical Education, seeks to develop the physical side of the individual and train in sportsmanship and coaching. This Department also embraces such areas as camp counseling, leadership training and physical health. Juvenile Literature, taught by Miss Mardell Christello, is a popular course for those majoring in elementary education. Counseling with students is an important task for Hollis Simpson, Chairman of- the department.

Library Staff Provides Able Assistan

A vital facility of any academic institution is the Library. F.SJ.C. is fortunate to have Miss Dorothy Beck serving as librarian. Necessary to provide

efficient

service is the staff which aids Miss Beck. These girls spend many hours cataloguing, classifying, and shelving the books which are constantly being added to the collection. The Library now houses approximately 9000 volumes and a generous budget is provided for ordering new selections. During the '63-'64 academic year, an emphasis was placed on the acquisition of valuable periodicals.

at FSJC

COACH SHELBY BREEDLOVE Director of Athletics

Basketball is the major sport at F.S.J.C. and it is only logical that there is some emphasis placed on it, but the philosophy of our Athletic department is one which stresses fun and sportsmanship rather than winning and publicity. The Numa staff feels that this is a healthy attitude and credit should be given to Coach Breedlove for initiating and furthering it.

BILL WILSON Chairman of Athletic Committee 39


Fort Smith's J.C. Lions, under the tutelage of Coach Shelby Breedlove, must assume as scholarly an attitude in the class room as they do a ferocious one in their cage contests. Breedlove stated early in the season, that due to a strenuous training program, this is the best conditioned team he's ever coached. "We may not win many games" he stated, "but we'll give 'em a tussle." The Lions haven't let him down. They chalked up an 83-61 score against recent J.C. grads in the Alumni contest, and took Oklahoma State Tech's Technicians by ten points in the first conference tilt.

In the second tilt Oklahoma State Tech was downed 97-73 and the Lions went into the final game with a chance to tie for second place.

The Bi-State Junior College Athletic Conference is made up of four teams: Oklahoma State Tech Technicians, St. Gregory Junior College Cavaliers, Bacone College Warriors, and Fort Smith Junior College Lions. Two other Junior Colleges have been invited to join the conference: Southern Baptist Junior College of Walnut Ridge, and Beebe Junior College-a branch of Arkansas State. Each member school must compete in three sports. Basketball, baseball, and either golf, tennis, or track are mandatory sports. This tendency toward expansion is very much a part of F.S.J.C.'s future, for a new field house will be erected some time in the next year.

It is said of junior colleges that they have the lowest school spirit rating of any of the institutions of higher learning. Reasons be what they are F.S.J.C. suffers this malady. It is understood that a cure can not be bought or forced on the student body, but the fact that our school has had two Ail-Americans in two years, and placed fourth in the nation two years ago, should be reason enough for pride and spirit. There is one solution to the problem which hasn't been mentioned—that is to change our major sport. Change it from basketball to bridge, then school spirit would soar!

Managers and Cheerleaders

Mack Rodgers and Johnny James are sophomores this year, and will leave the Lions after having served as student managers for two years. The Numa staff says thanks for a job well done. We would also like to give credit to our hard working cheerleaders. They accompanied the team to all out of town games, organized rallies, and provided a wealth of spirit here at home.

Big Success—that was the only way to describe the first annual Alumni-Varsity basketball game held Nov. 19. From the standing ovation given former coach John Thompson to the thunderous applause greeting the introduction of Jim Jay, first All-American from JC, the Wheeler Avenue Boy's Club probably held more cheers than at any other time in its history. During the warm-ups the gym rang with cries of "There's Squeaky" and "Hey, isn't that Preach?" as the crowd spotted former players, some just a little heavier with hair going or graying.

Freshmen Learn FSJC Tradition The Freshman class has entered into the spirit pf FSJC helping to "make this a better school year. They entered Junior College bringing with them many new ideas and much enthusiasm. They have worked diligently to make our activities a success and further interest among the students. Scholastically, this year's frosh are well represented on the dean's list and in the national honor society of Phi Theta Kappa.

Freshmen Barbara Angeletti, Pat Tays, and Donna Wakefield, doubt that whomever said Christmas dances are fun, never stayed up the night before making snowflakes.

Freshmen Linda Smithson and Anna Parker finally get to work on those term papers that have been assigned for three months and are due next week.

The growth of Fort Smith Junior College is a matter of record; most of the growth has come about since 1952 when the college moved to its present location. The tremendous expansion of the Technical Division simply points up the increase in facilities and services of our Community College in recent years. Today when industry is seeking to relocate or expand it looks for the area of trained labor or where such training will be available for everyone. The day is past when industry looks only for a surplus of manpower. In modern business and industry there is little room for the uneducated and unskilled. The technical division of Fort Smith Junior College is fulfilling a great and desperate need for adult education.

The girls in the contest were judged only by the portraits they submitted to Miss Burnett. The names of the winners were kept secret to enhance the announcement at the Spring Banquet and Prom. Class Beauties also were selected from the NUMA nominees by Carol Burnett.



NUMA Beauty and Class Beauties are nominated by members of the student body. These girls were nominated for their beauty and the charm of their personality. The nine selections on these pages were selected from the field of nineteen contestants.


One of the traditional features of the NUMA, the Hall of Fame was instituted to give recognition to those sophomores who distinguish themselves throughout their junior college career in one or more ways. Qualities considered include scholastic achievement, exceptional abilities, special service to the school, participation in student government and organizations, and general all around development. Nominations for candidates for the Hall of Fame are made by the faculty who vote for those persons whom they think most worthy of the honor. Excelling in both academic honors and in student government, JUDY ADAMS is a member of Phi Theta Kappa honorary fraternity and was first semester Student Board secretary-treasurer. Judy also participates in various campus organizations.

Variety of Activities Surround Homecoming Homecoming activities at FSJC began at 10:30 Friday morning, February 21, 1964 with a pep rally in the auditorium. Cheerleaders, basketball players and homecoming queen candidates were accorded special honors at this time. A comedy routine featuring members of the team and other organizations hi-lighted this meeting. The Parade began at 3:00 p.m. and proceeded down Grand Avenue to Garrison. Then at 7:30 Friday evening Miss Twania Pound was crowned Queen at the Wheeler Avenue Boys Club. The day was perfect except for the fact that the Lions lost the game.

Miniature floats depicting a Lion victory provided a novel boost to the spirit of Homecoming. The Sophomore's rain dance was unsuccessful.

Bacone was represented in the Pep assembly by these FSJC students, as a team with unusual possibilities for an easy victory however when the basket was raised for the game, the predictions crumbled.


Anticipating the beginning of the Homecoming assembly is an enthusiastic student body.

Decoration of the Homecoming parade cars requires alertness by both drivers and passengers at this tense time.

Homecoming Dance proved to be an overwhelming success as is demonstrated by large turnout.

The objectives of the Young Republican club, sponsored by Mr. Robert Runner, are to promote the two-party system of government and to train young people as effective informed political workers. The organization provides an opportunity for political expression and recognition, while encouraging the activities and promoting the ideals of the Republican party. The Young Republicans at FSJC attended a political workshop at Winrock Farm in October and have met with the State Executive Board several times. Other projects included out of town trips to Republican dinners and meetings and helping with the Republican booth at the fair. Boasting a membership of approximately 85, this club is the largest on campus.


Collegian Staff Informs Students of Campus Activities The Fort Smith Junior College newspaper was actually started so long ago no one really knows when it did come into existence. In 1952 it took the name "Lion's Roar" and this stayed with it until 1957 when the editor at that time changed it to its present title, "The Collegian." The Collegian has always been written by and for the students of Fort Smith Junior College. Due to the endu-ring efforts of past staffs, it has received various awards. In 1963, it won the General Excellence Award at the Arkansas Collegiate Publications Convention.

With editor Andy Byerly are Business Managers Barbara Mclnnis and Twania Pound.

Collegian Staff: (Front Row) Marsha Howard, Lauralee Darr, Kay Buell. (Last Row) Andy Byerly, Mack Pratt, Kenny Pratt and William Owens.

Lorena Goebel makes a last minute check with Miss Woods for possible mistakes before turning in an article for "The Collegian."


NUMA Staffers Planned Bigger, Better Yearbook The 1964 NUMA Staff began your yearbook last September with the purpose of making it bigger and better than its ever been. To some extent we have succeeded; in other ways we have failed. It is said that a yearbook reflects almost every phase of the school's activities; that it is a mirror into which we look and see ourselves at a particular time and place. If this is so the defects you see in yourself will be reflected in your annual. We, on the NUMA Staff, feel that this has been a very fine and productive school term, and that the student body of FSJC is one of the best in years. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the students, faculty, and administration for their cooperation in producing the 1964 NUMA.

Barbara Mclnnis, Twani'a Pound and Susan La Fontaine "hammer" out some pages in a never ending effort to meet deadlines.
