NUMA 1968

Already skilled in assembling his laboratory board, this student prepares for a career in radio technology.

By coordinating and utilizing available educational resources, Westark's academic program continued to grow in depth. Opportunities are offered in: (1) two year college transfer programs, (2) two year college terminal programs, (3) adult and vocational-technical education programs, and (4) community service programs. Recognizing the need for well prepared students to meet the challenges of a senior college, each department keeps abreast of new developments in its particular field, introducing new programs as they are needed.

Well equipped laboratories characterize the excellence of Westark's science department.

Accurate measurement is the key word, as an architecture major completes the framework of a scaled modern home.

Not only educating inwardly but also outwardly, Westark hosts the annual High School Yearbook Seminar each Fall.

Characteristic of Westark's administrators, Dean Shelby Breedlove takes time out to answer a student's question.

Conceiving and executing the programs for Westark's newData Processing procedure is the job of Mr. Harry Porter.

At a time when higher education is confronted with unprecedented challenges in meeting the nation's needs, Westark administrators face the future with comprehensive, thoughtful plans and an ambitious program for their achievement. Individually and cooperatively, thesedynamic leaders maintain a vital role in the college. Establishing college policies, dealing with student affairs, and solving the insignificant problems incorporate with administrative work are everyday jobs. Through their achievement, Westark has taken on a new look, proud of the past, unsurpassed in the present, but ever-planning for the future.

Directing college policies and recommending actions to the administration, Westark's Board of Trustees include: Back Row: Mrs. Thomas Gallaher, E. R. Beshears, Clyde Randall, Jr., Tom Null, Herman Udouj. Front Row: Chris D. Corbin, Carnall Gardner, E. S. Stephens.

"Out with the old and in with the new" seems to be the theme in Westark's expansion program, as bigger and better buildings rise on campus. The most recent addition was the science complex completed in January. "Old Main," the dominant structure on campus since 1952, has already been demolished to make way for a business administration building, last of a three-phase, million dollar capital improvement project. This three-phase improvement was initiated in 1965 as a result of Westark's transformation from a private to a tax supported community college. Upon completion of the new B-A building, the present structure, housing administrative personnel, will be razed to make way for even further expansion. From a few classrooms under a football stadium in 1928, to a 40 acre educational complex in 1968, Westark is a model for other community junior colleges across the nation.

Soon to fall itself, the present administration building overlooks construction of its replacement.

Serene landscaping is reflected by Westark's Fine Arts Building and Library.

Whether lecturing in class, advising students as to vocational choices, or cheering the Lion varsity, Westark's faculty cares. Even in this myraid of growth the faculty has not lost sight of the fact that the individual makes the college, and they consider student problems their own. Westark's faculty also contributes greatly to community and even national affairs. They serve as executives in fund drives, church workers, contest chairmen, and community civic leaders. They write for national magazines, act as organization directors, and for some, work on higher degrees. A highly diversified faculty adds to the goal of academic excellence in any school, Westark boasts such a faculty.

Adjusting the balances proves to be an easier task with the help of an instructor.

Important communications might consist of a call home or a beauty appointment.

By communication and reaction, we learn, we understand, we broaden our sight. A certain intellectual development is prevalent but the basis for social awareness must also be realized. Social awareness comes from meeting new situations. These situations are hopefully guided by Westark's co-curriculur program. Students are encouraged to join the campus organization of their choice, whether it be a political youth group or an organization related to a chosen field. The Student Board, composed of eight sophomores and seven freshmen, is the main student controlled governing body. Major events planned by the Board are the Fall Mixer, Christmas Formal, Valentine's Dance, and the Spring Prom. An Interclub Council has also been organized to serve as coordinator for all campus clubs.

Typical of Student Board activities, the Halloween mixer encouraged better Student-Teacher relations.

Basketball proved to be one of the most popular intramural sports.

Recognizing the important part physical education plays in a well-rounded program, Westark emphasizes participation. Athletics range from varsity sports, including basketball, baseball, and track, to the newly developed intramural program. The recently divided Bi-State Junior College Conference gave Lion basketball a new look in 67-68. The Lions, coached by Bill Crowder, presented a fine showing in the eastern division of the Bi-State Conference. Under the direction of Miss Brenda Snow and Coach Harry Rinehart, Westark intramurals provide an opportunity for all students to participate in some competitive sports activity. Sports included are flag football, golf, tennis, swimming, volleyball, basketball, archery, Softball, and horse shoes. Earning awards isn't the only reason or even the most profitable reason for participating in Westark's sports program. Self-control, coordination, and discipline are valuable assets acquired. These areas of development help not only on the playing field, but also in other phases of academic life. Ringmaster for the Lions, Coach Bill Crowder serves also as Regiona! Baseball Tournament Director.

Early season scrimmage provided vital practice for an enthusiastic Lion squad.

Complex is the quest for the most complete means to impart knowledge. Westark's administration and faculty rise with dedication and enthusiasm to join in this quest.

ADMINISTRATION 17

Dr. E. T. Vines

1914-1967

Dr. E. T. Vines had visions of greatness for Fort Smith's Junior College. Through the combined effort of dedicated men under his guidance, he saw his visions becoming realities when voters passed a proposal to establish a community junior college in Sebastian County and later to establish a junior college district. Through the appointment of a nine-member Board of Trustees by Governor Orval Faubus, the college was enabled to apply for federal funds to extend the building program. A new science building was dedicated this year, and the E. T. Vines Building, Westark's administration structure, is under construction. E. T. Vines was born in Russellville, Arkansas, graduated from Paris High School in 1932, and graduated from Ouachita College (now Ouachita University) with a B.A. in 1948. He enlisted in the Army during World War II and attained the rank of captain and staff engineerfor the 459th Bomb Group. Vines held M.A. and Ed.D. degreesfrom Peroge

Peabody College, Nashville, Tennessee. His doctoral dissertation was "Community Service Programs in Selected Public Junior Colleges." After serving as combined dean and business manager, he was made president of Fort Smith Junior College in 1952, now Westark Junior College. Dr. Vines served as secretary-treasurer of the Arkansas Department of Higher Education from 1957-1961 and as president of that group in 1962. He served as Vice-president of the Council of North Central Junior Colleges in 1961 and as president of that group in 1962. He was a member of the First Baptist Church, Belle Point Lodge Number 20, Western Arkansas Consistory, the Commission on Legislation of the American Association of Junior Colleges, the American Association of School Administrators, the Arkansas Association for Higher Education, the SertomaClub, the Sales Marketing Executive group, the Chamber of Commerce, Phi Delta Kappa, and the U.C.T.

In Memoriam "What you are doing here in making community college services available to youth and adults is right in step with one of the most important educational movements of our time." Dr. E. T. Vines

Shelby Breedlove named acting president Energy, hard work, and intent dedication are some of the dynamic characteristics that reflect the attitudes of Shelby Breedlove, acting president. Breedlove, administrative dean, was appointed acting president by the Board of Trustees to fill the vacancy created by the death of Dr. E. T. Vines. He will serve through June 30, 1968. He had been the administrative dean since 1965. Prior to that time he served as dean of men. Breedlove came to Westark in 1960 to serve as head coach and athletic director. From 195460, he coached in the Fayetteville school system. He holds bachelor and master degrees in physical education from the University of Arkansas. At present, he is working toward his doctorate through Florida State University. Breedlove is working on his dissertation, a long-range plan for junior college education in Arkansas. After completing his dissertation, he will still have some course work before receiving his Ph.D. A native of Fort Smith, he attended Van Buren High School and Fort Smith JuniorCollege, and he served with the Counter Intelligence of the United States Army.

High ideals plus constant effort achieve administrative results for Shelby Breedlove, Westark's acting president.

Serving ably as executive secretary, Mrs. Eva Pryor proves an efficient, tireless worker.

C. L Brown Dean of Occupational Education

Student achievement is concern of deans Amiable Mr. C. L. Brown gained as his new administrative title, Dean of Occupational Education. Besides filling his administrative position at Westark, Mr. Brown has been elected president of the Sebastian County Association for Retarded Children. "Students should give serious thought to working with the retarded," said Mr. Brown. "It is a large field and even though much is being done to teach the retarded, many more people are needed in both research and teaching." Counseling Westark coeds as Dean of Women remains among the numerous tasks belonging to Miss Lucille Speakman. As a teacher of Western Civilization at Westark, Miss Speakman instills in her students an appreciation for man's civilization through history. Aboveall, herconsistent and sincere enthusiasm is often just the tonic needed to cure a flustered freshman or organize another student orientated project. Ably tackling any task before him, Mr. Claude Yancey discharges the responsibilities of Dean of Instruction. Coordinating Westark's curriculum as to best suit the needs of the students, Dean Yancey works closely with the administration and the faculty for the purpose of elevating the level of instruction in each department. He also serves as head of the department of business. 22

Whether writing out student parking violations or teaching in the classroom, Dean Runner, with pipe in hand, communicates with the people who comprise Westark. In addition to his position as Dean of Men, he is serving as sponsor to the Student Board. He is a member of the social studies department. Mr. Harold Hile handles one of Westark's biggest jobs. His duties as registrar include registering students, recording grades, preparing transcripts, checkinggraduation requirements, and making various academic studies. A friendly smile and pleasing disposition characterize Mr. Hile's actions as he becomes involved in the responsibilities of his position. Jim Bolin, Westark's Business Manager, is known campus-wide for his size and his sense of humor. The job of business manager puts him in charge of all money, both income and expenditures, of the college. Mr. Bolin spends many hours in his office checking figures and details of the rapidly expanding construction program. 24

Three men play vital role Financial aids are administered by Harry Porter to the large number of students in the Work Study Program, to the scholarship recipients, and to the many who receive loans under the National Defense Student Loan Act. Mr. Porter is also serving as the coordinator of all Data Processing. With the Spring semester scheduling by computer, he is helping Westark to move into complete pre-registration. Guidance and counseling director, Harold Cameron came to Westark from the Office of Economic Opportunity. He has expanded the advisory program begun last year and has introduced guidance opportunities for the evening students. Working closely with Mr. Porter, he plays a vital role in the prescheduling ventures. Maintaining good community relations is the responsibility of Jerry Atkinson. He works to see that favorable publicity and meaningful information is dispensed to all members of the community. Much of his time was spent organizing the building dedications and handling student recruitment.

Stimulating interest in Westark is the job of Mr. Atkinson as he addresses a group of prospective students.

Data processing introduced in department "It has made the students as well as the faculty more aware of the techniques of computers use'd in the business world," says Mr. Claud Yancey, Business department chairman, about the institution of data processing into Westark's administration set-up. Along with its role in registration procedures, data processing is the basis for a new course, including complete instruction in programming and machine operation by Mr. Harry Porter. The course was offered to business students for the first time this year. An IBM keypunch and sorter provided the actual machine training. The Business department is now making plans for electronic classrooms for business courses plus a course in cooperative office education. New department members for this year include Mrs. Betty Price (MDTA) and Mr. William Lacewell, head of the newly developed Distributive Education departmental branch. The American Accounting, American Economics, American Marketing, Southern Business Education, and American Vocation Associations are among the organizations in which department members belong.

Miss Bella Ventura filled the position of foreign language laboratory instructor for first semester.

Foreign language lab instructor added

In her first year at Westark, Mrs. Perry instructs Freshman English classes.

The department of English and Foreign Languages offers freshman and sophomore courses in English, French, and Spanish which fulfill requirements of students working toward baccalaureate degrees at other institutions and which meet a variety of needs of students who may, in general, be terminating their formal college training. In addition to eight full time instructors, a foreign language laboratory instructor was added to the department. Miss Bella Ventura of Bogota, Colombia, held the position until December. Miss Sylvie Roselinni, of Cordoba, Argentina, filled the vacancy left by Miss Ventura and remained for second semester. Miss Roselinni came to the United States on a scholarship awarded by the National Foreign Language Teachers Aid Program. As part of the department's continuous reevaluation, several teaching methods were introduced to increase the English program's effectiveness. Two instructors began taping their criticisms of a limited number of their freshmen's compositions, thus approximating the benefit of a personal conference. During the year, two new courses in English for vocational students were developed and two transfer courses in advanced composition were offered in revised forms; also, an honors course for high-ranking freshmen has been planned for the autumn of 1968.

A modern two story brick science structure highlights Westark's academic year with the dedication held in January. It results from Phase Two of a three phase million dollar capital improvement project initiated when Westark became a tax supported community college in 1965. Main features of the structure include a lecture room with seats on a radius so the audience faces the speaker at all times, modern laboratories for science classes, and accoustical tile ceilings. The science building houses the science and math departments with ten math courses and nineteen science courses offered. New sciencedepartment members are Kenneth Duerkson, B.S. Southwestern Oklahoma State College, and John Taylor, B.S., M.C.S., University of Mississippi.

Social studies designed to meet demand The Social Studies Department of Westark Junior College offers courses designed to meet the needs of the students for freshman and sophomore courses in this field of study. The department is limited in the amount of courses that it can offer because most history and government courses for the purpose of majors are upper level courses. The department does offer the first courses in both these areas and basic courses in Sociology, Religion, and Geography. Miss Collett, the government instructor, was on a leave of absence for the first semester for the purpose of working with the Arkansas Constitutional Revision Study Commission. She returned to the campus for the spring semester. Miss Speakman, instructor of Western Civilization, plans to attend a seminar in Europe this year. Mr. Runner, instructor of American History, has traveled in Mexico for the past two summers. The department has seven instructors, all with master's degrees. They belong to many and varied professional organizations, i.e., AEA, NEA, Southern Historical Society. George McAlister is head of the department. 40

Student participation in class is illustrated by Lee Smith, freshman, who explains the make-up of the early newspapers.

program shifted to local administration

Leo Olsenâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Department Head

The control of the Vocational-Technical program shifted in December, 1967, from basically a state governmental agency control status to local administrative control. This gives a greatdeal of flexibility in the development of new programs within the department. In order to accomplish this, advice has been sought from industry, business, and labor in an attempt to identifythe needs of the community and in the establishment of the new programs. A Vocational-Technical citizens advisory committee has been organized and an extensive report of the Vocational-Technical education at Westark has been prepared defining the area served by the college, the Vocational-Technical guidelines to be used in forming new curricula, a discussion of the Manpower Development Training Act and the Arkansas State Plan for Vocational Education. A number of new programs are already in the planning stage which will be implemented within the next few years if the needs remain as they are now, and if it is financially feasible to offer such programs. Among these are office occupations, mechanical technology, wood technology, data processing, instrumentation, and nursing. An effort is being made to provide more adequate counseling services for the students of this department. Remedial classes in a variety of areas are receiving high priority.

To help meet the educational demands, the library provides general circulation books, reference books and audio-visual materials. Last May a gift of approximately 3,000 items was donated. Of these, 1,500 titles were classified and put on shelves. In September, another gift of approximately 6,000 items was received. In addition to the gifts, the library held a $14,000 federal grant for the 1967-68 school year. Max Burns, B.A. and M.T. from Northwestern Oklahoma State College, was appointed assistant librarian and circulation and reference director. Future plans for the library include putting the entire building to library use. "When the expansion program is completed, the rooms which are presently used for classes will be used for reading and listening rooms and as rooms toshow films," explained Mr. Lamb, head librarian.

Head librarian George Lamb synchronizes the many and varied activities linked with the administration of the library and its 12,750 volumes.

Vital personnel manage campus areas Indispensable to the operation of Westark are a number of non-teaching employees who perform a variety of services and who are referred to as the staff personnel. These people work behind the scenes, keeping efficient records, providing food for hungry students, and maintaining a clean, attractive campus. Many staff members have given years of service to the college and all are genuinely dedicated to the aims and objectives of the college. Although students frequently do not recognize the importance of the activities of these people, their services directly affect the daily life of each student. The essential services they render make up a large part of the overall effort to help Westark advance.

STUDENT LIFE 49

Sometimes a conference among the teachers was necessary to straighten out a problem.

Registration proves An industrious person is able to find a writing place almost anywhere.

Advisors were required to check each student's schedules before registration could be complete.

Waiting to be assigned advisors, students waited patiently sometimes in long, long lines.

necessary but arduous task for students Registration...endless lines.. .tired feet... hollow gym... keep on the cardboard mats... forgot my social security number.. .your ACT score?... your have to take gym... please print... do not bend, spindle or mutilate... hey, I became a number... please join our club... tired feet... smile for the Numa ... paid in full... tired feet... registration... One of a student's first and certainly most startling views of Westark is registration. It's long, it's tedious and it's nervewracking to say the least. Registration had its beginning with orientation and advisor assignments Sept. 11. The following week 1,827 students participated in a new registration system that allowed more effective processing by the administration. "We feel the new system was just great," said Shelby Breedlove, acting president. "It took students no longer to fill out the cards than in previous years, and it certainly made administrative registration work quicker and much more accurate." Registration, held in the gym this year, was a series of lines which began with the advisors and

ended with an IBM machineâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;swallowing a student's hand-printed cards. In between were the deans' lines, the draft lines, the car sticker lines, the Numaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;portrait lines, the clubs' "lapel grabbing" lines and fee paying lines.

Orientation gave friends a chance to catch up on who did what during the summer.

Cheerleader tryouts

Cheerleader candidate Marina Barros illustrates the perfect precision required of a Westark cheerleader. Student Board officers for the first semester were Sandra Bartlett, Bill Byers and Janis Pevehouse. Liddy Ann Fitch, Sophomore Class president, promoted the spirit of the student mixer with her version of a Halloween costume.

Hoping to be chosen Lion cheerleader, freshman Glenda Allen leaps to climax a yell.

& board elections occupy time and plans Democracy calls for elections; elections demand candidates; and among candidates there are winners. The student board elections were held on October 6, 1967 with the first semester officers being Robert Byers, president; Janis Peevehouse, vice-president; and Sandra Carson, secretary. On January 8 the second semester officers were named. The new president was Bill Sonderegger with Bill Jester serving as vice-president. The polls were opened again in early February for students to vote on the new constitution for the board. It was overwhelmingly approved. Cheerleader tryouts, held October 3, saw the election of an eight member squad for the year. The girls spent days preparing for the contest which was judged by campus personnel.

Petite Susie Taylor demonstrates the jumping form that won her the honor of being Lion cheerleader. Cheerleader hopefuls for the 1968 year included Sammie Caperton, Susie Taylor, Jan Marshall, Marina Barros, Nanci Allison, Janie Simpson, Phyllis Agler, Marsha Arnold, Glenda Allen and Jean Stanley.

focal point as semester progresses Registration was over at last and Westark students were introduced to the academic side of college - classes. Through enthusiastic instructors, classes became the focal point. Thought-creations from the past were again brought to life, vividly impressing learning and its values on students. Animated discussions and informative lectures were featured in class time. Increased emphasis was placed upon research and experimentation, and visual instruction was seen throughout. Students of the college were exposed to basic training in physical, biological, and social sciences, humanities, communications, and technical courses. To stimulate each student to develop and impart ideas clearly and effectively, remains the purpose of classes on campus, and the goal to which they are striving to attain. 55

The spacious new Science Building is just another part of Westark's long-range expansion program.

Construction becomes familiar sight

To make way for newer facilities, demolition crews were forced to tear down the once serene Old Main.

An aerial view of the Technical Division captures an infrequent scene, that of near abandonment. Looming high into the sky, construction cranes were visible from any spot on campus.

to students Students occupied a new science building, work was quickly underway where "Old Main" had once stood and a study of a new student center was initiated. All this pointed toward rapid completion of phase one of a campus master plan for Westark. The $466,734 science building was put in use shortly after the beginning of the spring semester. Located on the northwest of the campus, the building contains 11 classrooms, five laboratories and five faculty offices. In November students presented to the College Board of Trustees a proposal for the construction of the Thomas E. Fullerton Memorial Student Center. The proposal was accepted and a student-faculty committee began work on center plans. All campus streets were made one way to faciliate more rapid and safer driving. Shortly after school began the technical division parking lot was resurfaced causing students to turn the boys' club football field into a parking lot.

Relaxation sought by weary students When outside the classroom, the '68 Westark students indulged in a variety of extracurricular activities. One of the more popular engagements proved to be playing cards in the student center, as hordes of card players decended on the student center each day. Freshmen were initiated fast. To the joy of freshmen and sophomores who regarded the center as an eating facility, Dean of Men Runner announced that from 11:00 until 2:00 each day, card games were banned from the center. To enforce this ruling, Dean Runner proceeded to raid all card games going on in this time period. For the more athletic minded, the expanded intramural program provided leisure time activity. Men's Intramural basketball reigned as the favorite during first semester, while golf and tennis were available in the spring. Despite opportunities for relaxation, thefondly nicknamed"grinds" (those students famous for setting the curve) continued to spend afternoons in the library â&#x20AC;&#x201D;joined by the card players nearthe end of each semester.

Relaxation means many things to many people, to most WJC students it means cards. Sitting in car, an unidentified student ponders the question at hand â&#x20AC;&#x201D;whether or not to go to class.

Personifying helpfulness, Bill Humble and Barry Pittman aid a fellow student in pulling his car out of the ditch. Informal recreation such as PhysicsEngineers Club football game encourages student participation.

The field of Science creates a strong bond of common interest between student Lawrence Landsverk and instructor John Deaton.

No Homecoming is complete without a pep rally. This year's rally had a different twist as a political rally was incorporated with the pep rally. Student Board candidates and officers were introduced to the students. Although most positions were not opposed for second semester, this phase of the rally enabled students to meetthe nominees. Behind most of the Lions Week activities were the Student Board. Through their careful planning, spirit was aroused for the Homecoming game against Southern Baptist and the presentation of the Lions Week Court.

Heading WJC student government for second semester were Liddy Fitch, sophomore class president, Joe Sonderegger, Student Board president, Bill Jester, Student Board vice-president, and Bill Humble, freshman class president.

Enthusiastic cheerleadersSusieTaylor, JanieSimpson, and Glenda Allen spark spirit during Homecoming Week activities.

Grub Day festivities included instroduction of queen candidates, Leta Overstreet, Marsha Arnold, Phyllis Agler, Glenda Allen, and Sammie Caperton.

Acting President Shelby Breedlove is evidently pleased as he crowns 1967-68 Homecoming Queen Marsha Arnold.

Homecoming climaxs Lions Week A queen and her court, a basketball game, and a dance all spell HOMECOMING for Westark. Climaxing an exciting week of spirit-orientated activities, Homecoming was highlighted by the crowning of Miss Westark during half-time festivities of the Southern Baptist game on January 6. From the bevy of beauties chosen by the Lion basketball players, Miss Marsha Arnold was crowned Miss Westark 1968 by Mr. Shelby Breedlove. Marsha and her royal courtâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Phyllis Agler, Leta Overstreet, Glenda Allen, and Sammie Caperton were honored during the game and afterwards at the Homecoming dance. All activities during the week and the actual Homecoming characterized the careful planning of the Student Board.

It is a crucial moment in the game as Sophomore Johnny Ferryman trys to pull the Lions in reach of Southern Baptist.

The game is over and everyone leaves but the memories of the 1968 Homecoming will not be left behind.

Industrious Bill Humble actively aids Student Board project by making publicity posters for Student Mixer.

Board acts as government for students Activities serve to fill vacant moments of college life and the Student Board worked to fulfill this dimension for students. The Student Board sponsored three dances, Homecoming Week and TWIRP Week. The three dances were the traditional projects of the Board —the mixer, the Christmas Formal and the Spring Prom. The major activity of the Board was the FolkJazz Festival April 5-6 which concluded TWIRP Week. The biggest accomplishment of the Student Board was receiving a voice in the affairs which concern the student—for instance the delegation of the $20 activity fee. The Board gave students a chance to voice their opinions about student affairs by conducting a survey in March to discover what the students would like for extracurricular activities. Whatever the successes and failures of the 1967-68 Student Board, it has set a precedent for coming Boards to follow. All internal streets on the Westark campus we»-e changed to one-way in early November. This presented a temporary problem for confused drivers. Freshman Mike Parris feels it is safer to walk.

As part of a community service, Student Board members collected from students for the United Fund. Bill Ginger, freshman, obligingly donates to Board member Bill Humble. Presiding over Board meetings, vice-president Bill Jester evaluates suggestions to form plans for upcoming projects.

Heralding the semester's end, Mr. Harry Porter uses data processing equipment to finalize grade reports.

Spring plans center around graduation Graduation is the closing of one of the many open doors in life. It is not the end of our search for knowledge, but only a recognition of strife. It is a time one looks back with a smile or a sigh â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with satisfaction or with regretâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;for reflections of passed years and predictions and hopes for the years to come. With diploma in hand, graduates approach the threshold of another door in life, that of applying learned knowledge and career preparation to fit in with the scheme of life. Westark's graduates walked to the threshold on May 30, 1968, and received their diplomas from the hands of Mr. Carnall Gardner, Board President.

The ritual of measuring forcaps and gowns makes graduation seem real for sophomore Anita Tibbits and Dean of Women, Miss Speakman.

Business Manager Jim Bolin showed his ability to handle food as well as money at the graduation reception.

As graduation neared, the last minute rush kept Mr. Duerksen busy as sophomore advisees checked guidesheets.

After his last exam, Bill Lux, Sophomore, heads for home.

Semester ends with swirl of activity The rush of events leaves one totally unprepared for the end of the school year. Finals creep up almost without warning, the Spring prom is hardly over and that summer job has yet to be found. For many of the more organized, life is hardly rippled by the end of one semester and the beginning of another. Summer classes begin June 2, and the pool opens June 4. For those who remain here the campus will certainly not look deserted. The construction goes on, classes as usual and the process of education continues. The Student's life is changed with the passing of a school year. Some will never return to Westark and some of those who do return will not be the same next fall.

Dismal weather fails to alter glad feelings about the semester's end.

Exhilarant Bonnie Adams shares mutual feelings about the end of exams and school â&#x20AC;&#x201D;the beginning of summer.

Lone administrator Jim Bolin bids farewell to the 67-68 year and foresees future registrations.

From those who attend Westark and the numerous activities indulged in, emerge students who set themselves apart by possessing the leadership qualities, scholastic endeavors, or beauty considered admirable by today's standards. A small portion of these students are given recognition and presented as a "personality."

Basketball took on a new look in '68 as the Westark Lions prepared for the season in a newly divided Bi-State Junior College Conference. Westark competed in the eastern division of the Bi-State Conference along with Northeastern A&M, Poteau Jr. College, and Oklahoma Military Academy. Competition in the western region was between St. Gregory's, Oklahoma City Southwestern, Oklahoma State Tech, and Bacone. The Bi-State conference division which was on a trial basis for one year was set up in an effort to solve the conference's scheduling and traveling problems. Blessed with the return of eight lettermen and the arrival of a bumper crop of freshmen, Coach Bill Crowder had a firm basis upon which to plan the 1967-68 season. Completing Crowder's starting five were sophomore cagers, Johnny Ferryman, Greg Davis, David Hoyle, Lawrence Bly, and Jimmy Dunn. However, as the season progressed, Freshman Bodie Finkey and Soph Bob Hamilton offered some stiff competition. Though the game results showed them to be not consistent winners, the Westark Lions represented the school well, proving themselves to be winners in not conceding defeat.

Height disadvantage handicaps Lions After three consecutive losses, Westark's Lions took their first win November 28 by defeating the Poteau Trojans, 77-73. In their opening game the Lions were handed a 50-47 defeat by the free-throws of Oklahoma State Tech's Mike Lewis. Later the Lions were defeated by Central Baptist's Mustangs. In the NEO Basketball Tournament, the Lions defeated Missouri 75-64 to win the consolation championship. The Lions lost their first game of tournament play to Oklahoma Military Academy but won their second game with a 72-65 win over Oklahoma Tech. In front of a home crowd on December 12, the Lions demonstrated their playing ability as they overwhelmed Eastern A&M 77-57. Previously, on November 20, the Lions were handed a 79-64 defeat. On December 8 and 9, the Lions were handed losses by the Cavaliers of St. Gregory and the Shoatsof the University of Arkansas. The Connors Aggies proved too much for the Lions as the Aggies won 62-52 February 13. Possibly the game of the year was the University of Arkansas Freshman â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Lion tilt on February 19, in which the Lions swept to a victory over the Hogs.

Lion Hardballers Spring brings many things to Westark, but to the athletic department it brings baseball. The 1968 Lions' baseball team opened its spring schedule March 12 when they faced Arkansas Tech at Russellville. Before the Spring schedule, the Lions played 12 fall games. The last game for the baseball team was April 30 when they met State College of Arkansas at Conway. The '68 team was composed of six returning players and 13 newcomers. The team began this season with hopes of bettering the 23-12 record of last year. The Lions demonstrated their playing ability to local fans with eight home games at Hunts Park plus the Eastern Region Tournament May 2-4. The winner of the Eastern Region Tournament met the Western Region champion to determine who will play in the national finals. The 19 Lion baseballers were guided in their efforts by Coach Bill Crowder. Coach Crowder is in his third year as athletic director at Westark. OUTFIELDERS.

Though not all men choose to participate in the intramural program, they are given opportunities to exercise individually or as class groups.

Rabswin intramural hoop championship Basketball reigned as the most popular of the intramural sports as seven teams formed to compete for the intramural basketball championship. The teams entered in competition included the Westark Rabs, Double Dribbles, Playboys, Misfits, Mispleasures, Outcasts, and the Losers. Competition ended on December 12 with the Rabs coming out on top for the championship. The teams played each Monday night in the Westark gym. Westark's golfers took to the greens in the spring to play matches against other college teams and among themselves. The five best amateur men bowlers and the five highest women bowlers in intramural bowling, represented Westark at the annual ACU-I (Association of College Unionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;International) Region Twelve Tournament in Dallas, Texas on February 22nd and 23rd. Bowling was inserted as an active part of Spring Sports 2011 and 1011 for one semester hour credit. The class met three times each week, two days a week bowling and one day for lecture with John Taylor as head bowling coach.

Two women's varsity volleyball teams were organized with nine members on each team and a tennis team was organized. The women's volleyball schedule of play included the University of Arkansas, Arkansas Tech, and other state colleges. The season ended November 17-18 with tournament play at State College of Arkansas. Eight women were chosen for membership in Westark's tennis club in early February. Members included Beverly Attaway, Sandra Bartlett, Wanda Bonner, Jan Chaney, Rosie Hartoon, Cynthia Marks, Deb Thomas, and Jackie Wilson. Six matches were scheduled plus tournament play. Included in season play were matches with Southern State, Ouachita Baptist University, Henderson, Hendrix, State College of Arkansas, and Arkansas Tech. Tournament play included the arranged U of A Invitational Tournament and the AiC Tourney which ended the season on May 9, 10, and 11.

Westark cheerleaders spark Lion spirit A school's cheerleaders are the embodiment of that intangible something called school spirit. The Westark cheerleaders, whose chief function is to build enthusiasm and lead yells at Lion basketball games, are present at each home game and are represented at those on the road. Head cheerleader Phyllis Agler led this year's squad with charm and dedication in getting the most out of the other six willing pepsters. The often demanding schedule left the cheerleaders breathless and behind in studies but they were always there, ready to support the Lions with a yell for victory. Miss Brenda Snow acted as sponsor for the '68 cheerleaders and was present at Lion games, adding her support to the cheerleaders. Chosen after four weeks of extensive practice and tryouts in September, the seven girls spent many hours in rigorous practice to acquire the timing and precision needed for each yell. They were rewarded for their efforts by a great year for Lion sports.

Social activities objective of Board One of Westark's most active organizations is the Student Board which serves as a communication link between the students and the administration.

Dean of Men Robert Runner served as one of the sponsors of the active Student Board.

The Student Board has had multi-facet functions in providing for various student programs and activities which have required the coordinated efforts of both students and faculty. Headed by President Robert Byers, the first semester Student Board marked the beginning of its activities with a Student Mixer on October 27. The mixer with Halloween as its theme began with a hamburger fry followed by a dance featuring the Eloquence of Silence. The Fine Arts Auditorium took on a festive air December 15 as the Student Board sponsored their annual Christmas Formal. A queen and her court, Grub Day, and a pep rally represented Student Board activities during Lion's Week in January. The queen candidates were chosen by the Student Board from a field of 13 girls nominated by the Lion basketball team. Second semester brought new officers and representatives to coordinate activities. Joe Sonderegger was elected president and Bill Jester as vice-president, while Sandra Bartlett continued as secretarytreasurer. During second semester, the revised Student Board constitution was offered to the students for their approval on February 21 and was ratified. Board sponsored social activities for second semester included a Folk-Jazz festival, replacing the annual Spring Concert, Twirp Week, and a student-faculty basketball game. 125

Collegian gives students news coverage Keeping the student and faculty informed of campus happenings is the main function of the COLLEGIAN, Westark's bi-weekly newspaper. It also gives an opportunity to students for exercising their journalistic abilities. After the appointment of Marsha Hayden to head the publication, the COLLEGIAN staff began the countless hours of interviewing, writing stories, editing copy, proofreading copy, writing headlines, and meeting deadlines. All of this was carried out under the capable leadership of Marsha Hayden, editor, and Susan Skinner, assistant editor. Faculty advisor Jerry Atkinson aided the COLLEGIAN staff with his experience in the newspaper and journalistic fields. Timely editorials and articles of student interest characterized the COLLEGIAN material, as it set out to accomplish its duties as the voice of Westark students.

Numa '68 records very memorable year Fun filled hours of hard work, writing copy, captions, organizing and reorganizing, results in Numa '68. The yearbookâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a picture filled diary of a memorable yearâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is not only the work of the Numa staff but the students, administration and faculty. Among the changes in the '68 publication, the Personalities section is perhaps the section with the newest look. Instead of the traditional Numa Beauty and Class Beauties, the title Numa Beauty was extended to cover four girls chosen by a panel of prominent Fort Smith citizens. These four were selected from a field of ten contestants, representing Westark clubs on campus. The Who's Who Among Students in American Junior Colleges was instituted to replace the traditional Hall of Fame. Representatives in this honor were chosen by the Student Board and Faculty, best representing leadership, academic, and service qualities. Deadlines, a necessary evil in yearbook work, provided stimulation for accomplishing what had to be done. Editor of Numa '68 was Carolyn Steward, with Larry Green as business manager. Photographer was Susie Garcia with assistance from John Wilson and Steve Dodson. Section editors included Linda Hall, Sue Peevy, Joyce Boyakin, Donna Pearcy, and Sharon Griffin. Brenda Dukes and Edith Morris rounded out the staff for Numa '68. Staff members Edith Morris and Sue Peevy sorted hundreds of pictures to find the best ones.

Always ready to help, Donna Pearcy proved an avid Numa staff member.

Choir performs 'Elijah' with symphony Weeks of practice ended when the Westark choir presented "Elijah" with the Fort Smith Symphony in early December. The program was held in the Civic Auditorium. Six student soloists and one guest soloist performed. Bob Moore, Charles Fortner, Jo Ellen Hambric, Billie Kay Harder, Dennis Fite, and Wilma Jean Hays were student soloists. Myra Porter, choir director at Greenwood High School, was guest soloist. Bob Moore portrayed the character of Elijah. Jo Ellen Hambric sang the part of the Angel and Charles Fortner sang the part of Obadiah. The 46 member choir performed "Elijah" under the direction of Logan Green. "The choir was chosen to present 'Elijah' with the Symphony upon the recommendation of the Symphony Board," said Mr. Green. Because of the long hours of practice necessary for "Elijah," this presentation was the first choral performance as a group. However the choir's quartet, composed of David Tapp, Dennis Fite, Danny Hall, and Mike Parris, made appearances in the early fall. As is the custom of Westark's choir, the group performed at local high schools in the spring. Bob Moore served as president and student director of the choir. Billie Kay Harder accompanied the choir for first semester. New robes were the highlight addition for the choir, as fund-raising projects and donations acquired the badly needed robes.

Ever striving to reach new heights, Mr. Green directs choir with aid of chair.

After long hours of practice, Westark's choir realized success after symphony performance.

One of the Music Guild projects for the year was a variety show to raise money to bring the Arkansas Tech concert band to Fort Smith for a concert. 134

Dr. Hattie Butterfield served as co-sponsor for the Music Guild.

Drama Club promotes dramatic interest Westark's Drama Club provides roles for starting actors and at the same time provides entertainment for the college and community. The club works to further student interest in theater and works of major importance in the theater and to build up student participation. Besides its yearly play production, the Drama Club took several trips to the University of Arkansas to see the University of Arkansas dramatic productions. Officers were Carolyn Burns, president, Jennifer Kimberling, vice-president, and Becky Bray, secretary. Mr. Hoyle Carolan is sponsor of the group. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Carolan, Westark's dramatics fulfills its obligation to the community.

Students achieve academic excellence

Gaining recognition for scholastic achievements, Phi Theta Kappa officers Robert Burris and Albert Quoss participated in the initiation ceremony for new members held in January.

Academic achievement remains the theme of the Phi Theta Kappa, Westark's scholastic honor society. Under sponsorship of Mrs. Barbara Bartlett and Dr. S. H. Blakely, the Phi Theta Kappa members strive for academic excellence in subject material and at the same time interest others to excell. These students have set themselves apart by maintaining a grade point of 3.50 in at least 15 hours of college work. Selection for membership is based on scholastic effort plus character.

The Crest of a wave has been reached ... Events become memories, and May brings an end of this school year. Students begin seeking a new w a v e . . . one which takes them outside the boundaries of this college... in higher education or in professional work. Each student has gained a knowledge which has made the year a worthwhile endeavor. Each student is an individual going somewhere—• each student with his knowledge and his originality striving for recognition in his new wave. Through past achievements and future successes each Westark student will ride the Crest of the Wave. For this year the Crest has been reached ... but the sea goes on and o n . . . another wave begins to rise.
