Second Performance Of Play Slated Tonight

Would-be Santa Causes Mishap

Miss Donna Gail Schreier 's role as a female Santa Claus caused more than a broken hear t last week.

When her six-year-old nephew, Mose Maurice Howard, noticed Santa left all the neighborhood children skates, he asked, "Mo-ther , I wonder why Santa brought everybody skates but me?"

Thinking she would ease her nephew's pain of disappoint-ment , Miss Schreier promptly went to town and brought him a pair of bright, new skates.

Young Mose responded just as quickly—he broke his leg!

Classes Meeting In New Building

Although the open house a t the new fine a r t s building h a s been postponed, dramatics, speech, music and a r t classes are meeting in the new class rooms.

The classes began in the new building J an . 2. The choir met for the f i rs t t ime in the build-ing Jan . 3.

The open house, which was scheduled for J an . 4, was post-poned until doors coming from Brooklyn, N. Y. arr ived. The new date for the dedication will be announced la ter , Elmer Cook, president , announced re-cently.

Free Period May Be Moved JC Journalist

Covering Trip To Washington

The advantages and d isad-vantages of changing the f r e e period f rom 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock and cutting the period to 30 minutes were discussed a t a faculty meeting last Wednes-day.

No definite decision was reached on the mat te r , as f u r t h -er consideration by the facul ty is necessary. If the change is made it will take effect next semester .

Several member s of the facul -ty expressed the opinion that moving the f ree period to 11 o'clock would enable students to eat lunch during this time, since there is no lunch period.

Among newsmen covering the presidential inauguration Jan . 21 will be a JC journalism student, J a m e s Newton.

Newton will represent the Southwest American and the Por t Smith Times Record on the trip. He is an employe of the Southwest American and is a junior college student.

The For t Smith high school band, which will m a r c h in the inaugural parade , is ta rge t for Newton's coverage. Daily stories of the band 's activities on the t r ip to Washington and during its four day stay there will be wired back to the For t Smith papers .

Newton will also write a fea-ture article concerning the t r ip for the Feb. 15 issue of the Lion's Roar .

Photographs of band members taken on the way, and of the entire band during the parade , will be airmailed back for pub-lication in the two papers .

Motion pictures of activities will be made by the reporter-

photographer for possible TV use later . P a t Por ta , p rogram director of KFSA-TV, has indi-cated that he is interested in using the f i lms following the tr ip.

Five candidates for Homecom-ing queen have been selected by the basketball squad to reign over the Homecoming game Jan. 24. The queen will not be an-nounced until the ceremonies preceding the game with Okla-homa A & M.

The candidates are Maxie Moore, Carol McKinney, Joyce Phillips, Karen Bowling, and Carol Caldwell. After the queen is named, the other contestants will serve as her court.

Captain Howard Patterson will crown the queen and escort her to the Homecoming party, which

will be held after the game. The queen and her court will reign, at the party, which will be in-formal. Tentative plans include dancing, according to Mrs. Billye Bumpas, president of the FTA, which promotes the Homecoming celebration.

The Homecoming committee which has charge of plans for the night include Mrs. Bumpas, Miss Mary Ray, and Miss Shir -ley Anderson.

Last year the queen was Bar-bara Thompson.

Final per formance of "Oh Men, Oh Women," a Broad-way comedy by Edward Cho-doror, will be presented tonight a t 8 o'clock by the Jacque and Jes te r club.

The cast includes: Miss Shir-ley Windsor portraying "Miss Tackey" ; Roy Law, "Allan Coles"; Bob Hendren, "Gran t Cobbler"; Miss Carol Caldwell,

"Myra H a g e r m a n " ; J i m m y Cooper, "Dr. Krauss" ; Miss Shirley Anderson, "Mildred Lu-m e n " ; Mack Angel, "Arthur Turner"; Charles Law, "Stew-ard," and Miss Betty Harvey will serve as prompter .

The play has to do with a psychoanalyst who accidentally learns about his fiancee's past through a patient. In one scene a movie s tar gives a tipsy re-telling of the plot of Ibsen's "Doll 's House." It is a light sa-t ire.

Stage manager for the pro--duction is Jack Schoeppey. Miss

Donna Cail Schreier is in charge of properties and Char-les Robertson heads the house

committee. A s s i s t i n g Miss Schreier a re : Miss Elizabeth Britt , Miss, Joyce Phillips, Miss Betty Jo Dobbs, Miss E m m a Jo Brown, Johnny Pitcock, and Pat Todd. Helping Robertson are: Miss Judy Curtis, Miss Elea-

nor Carter , Miss Sammie Lou Vyles, Miss F rances Tiley, Ter-ry Harr is , and Tommy Ver-trees.

Other members of the d r a m a -tic club serving on committees were: lighting, Ralph Sanders; publicity, Miss Judy Curtis and Miss Phoebe Speer; tickets. Miss Sammie Lou Vyles; print-ing, Miss J ean Secrest; cos-tumes, Miss Sally Slack and Miss Mary Allyn Hensen, and make-up. Miss Phoebe Speer, Miss Gail Ann Robinson, and Miss Verna Lou Lloyd.

The play is being presented by the Jacque and Jes ter club and is under the direction of Miss Margaret Montague, dra-matics and speech instructor.

Pre-enrollment Sessions Held

Pre-enrollment sessions were held in junior college class-rooms during second period to-day so that students could make tentative schedules for next semester .

Dean E . T. Vines explained the purpose for the pre-regis-tration was to determine the textbooks needed for next se-mester and also to find con-flicts in students' schedules so that they may be eliminated before enrollment.

"Fo r ins tance," he pointed out, "somet imes courses, both of which are required, might be scheduled at the same period."

Names of students who intend to drop out of school will be taken at the sessions so that the college will know how many textbooks to order, Vines said.

Art Guild Schedules Series of Art Films

Vol. IV - No. 7 Fort Smith Junior College — Fort Smith, Arkansas Fri., Jan. 11, 1957

After moving into new quar-ters in the fine ar ts building, the a r t depar tment and the af-filiated a r t guild have pur-chased easels, and they plan a series of ar t f i lms to help pay for them.

The f irs t f i lm is slated for J an . 29. "Birth of a Nation" is expected to be the opening feature , according to Miss Mar-tha Burrow and J im Newton, student directors of the pro-grams.

"Birth of a Nation," based on a best-selling novel of the early 1900's, was directed by D. W.

Griffith. This Civil War story introduced many photographic effects not seen in movies be-fore its presentation in 1915.

Other f i lms slated during next semester include "Duck Soup," a Marx brothers fi lm, "Morocco," with Gary Cooper

and Marlene Dietrich, "Blood and Sand," with Rudolph Val-entino, and "King Henry V."

The six fi lms slated by the Art guild film society are f i lms which movies producers recog-nize as having artistic meri t .

Pr ice for the entire series will

be $2 per person. Tickets may be bought f rom Art guild m e m -bers or Harold Keller, guild sponsor.

Each program will be pre-sented at 7:30 p. m. in the fine ar ts theater , according to the student directors.

Proceeds f rom the fi lms will be Used in pa r t to pay for the eight easels recently purchased for use by the a r t students, ac-cording to Keller.

The easels, which cost $14 each are adjustable for various sized pictures. They will be used in the classrooms but not in exhibitions.

P a r t of the money for the easels will be taken f r o m pro-ceeds of work done at a local service station yesterday. Art students worked at the station all day, and profits went to the art department, Keller said.

Art guild members plan to serve as guides at the official opening of the fine a r t s build-ing, Keller said. In conjunc-tion with the opening, the group will sponsor an a r t exhibit in-cluding student paintings and work f rom the University of Arkansas.

A great deal of attention has been and is being given to the shortage of teachers and lack of proper facilities, but another educational problem, just as important, receives com-paratively little publicity.

That problem involves the fact that each year thousands of high school graduates of outstanding ability do not go to college because of financial reasons. Only about six of every ten of the top five per cent of high school graduates receive a higher education.

"This is an appalling waste of individual opportunity and of the nation's most valuable resource—the brainpower of its youth," Marion B. Folsom, secretary of health, edu-cation, and welfare, said in a address given before the American Council on Education.

Many young people who have the potential to become leaders in industry, government, science, and other fields do not receive a higher education for financial reasons and in effect waste their intelligence by lack of proper educa-tion.

"We know that today only about one-half of the ablest 25 per cent of our high school graduates go on to college. . . Of every 20 children who set out in life together," Folsom said, "only 16 enter high school, only 11 graduate from high school, only four enter college, and only two graduate from college."

Of course, lack of motivation is also responsible for keeping many from attending college.

If the thousands of youth who do not attend college for these two reasons received a higher education, it is only reasonable to assume that this would alleviate somewhat the critical shortage of teachers and engineers, for some of these students would enter those professions.

". . . young people are the nation's most valuable asset— the promise of a better future, of a growing economy, of even better social conditions, of a durable peace," Folsom said.

"Something must be done about this problem, and quickly. Youth are the hope of the nation, and they must be educated to achieve their potential. Upon the answer to this problem could very well hang the fate of a nation.

Editorially Speaking

The Lion Roars The theme of the National Foundation of Infantile Pa r -alysis fund campaign this year is "Let 's finish the job. ' ' I t is an apt expression.

Great strides have been made in the last few years in the fight against polio. Only 16,000 cases were reported last year ; to say ONLY 16,000 seems strange, yet that is a smal l number in comparison with the 27,000 to 57,000 cases reported in preceding years .

This progress is due largely to the Salk vaccine which in 1955 alone kept an est imated 1200 children f rom becoming victims of polio.

Ideally, for a polio-safe Am-erica every person between the ages of six months and forty five years should get the pro-tection of the vaccine.

Though the number of polio cases decreased about 50 pe r cent in 1956 over the 1955 total, the proportion of severe respi-ra tory cases has been rising in the last few years . Continued research is necessary so that a drug may be discovered which will stop paralysis even if injected af te r the polio virus has at tacked the nerve centers. The Salk vaccine will not do this.

The care for paralytics, the inoculations, the research, all cost millions of dollars. E a c h citizen can do his par t in con-quering this dread disease by supporting and giving to the March of Dimes.

Fullerton Discusses Teaching as Profession

' 'The rewards of teaching are probably greater than those in any other profession, because a teacher is building citizens of tomorrow, and it's good to see the results of your efforts many years in the future. All this is worth much more than material rewards one might receive in some other work," Dean Tom Fullerton said in a discussion of the op-portunities and rewards in the teaching profession.

There is a greater shortage of teachers today than there is in any other profession, Fullerton said, with science and math teachers specializing in elemen-tary education at a premium.

He said that it will take many years to overcome the teacher shortage because our public school population is increasing at a much greater degree than young men and women entering the profession. In fact, if some-thing isn't done to encourage more men and women to enter the teaching profession, he said, there will be no end to the short-age.

"In order to be a good teacher, one must have an expressed in-terest in the teaching profession and must demonstrate ability to master subject material," Ful-lerton explained.

"A successful teacher should have interest in every pupil, be sympathetic, stimulate thought, show good judgement, and prac-tice self-oontrol; so before enter-ing the profession of teaching, a person should take an inven-tory of himself to see if he has all of these traits.

Qualifications for a teacher are broad, Fullerton continued. It is necessary to have a general edu-cation which covers all the arts and science fields, plus majors and minors in specific fields in which a person expects to teach. He said that a well qualified teacher can get a position in any section of the country.

"I chose teaching as my pro-fession because I had some good teachers who impressed upon me the importance of the profession, and because it is interesting and lots of fun to work with people,

for no two are alike," Fuller-ton added.

"A successful teacher needs: the education of a college presi-dent, the executive ability of a financier, the humility of a dea-con, the adaptation of a chame-leon, the hope of an optimist, the courage of a hero, the wisdom of a serpent, the gentleness of a dove, the patience of Job, the grace of God, and the persistence of the devil," according to The Syracuse Bulletin, a college pub-lication.

The proposed schedule change —moving f ree period to 11 o'clock—seems to be a step for-ward and a benefit to nearly all JC students.

The main reason for the pro-posed change is to provide a lunch period for those students who can now only "grab a bite" between classes. Since there is now no lunch period, and 10 o'clock is too early to eat lunch, the idea seems to be a good one.

Faculty members also discussed cutting the time for the period from the present 40 minutes to 30 minutes. When the 40-minute period was introduced last year, it was put on a trial basis, and now several faculty members feel that a ful l 40 minutes is not needed.

"I would like to hear any sug-gestions f rom anybody as to whether we should make this change or not," Dean E. T. Vines said.

still hot f rom their seven game winning streak, the For t Smith junior college Lions will meet Texarkana J C, whom they have never beaten, tomor-row night at Texarkana .

In the last two years Tex-a rkana has beaten the Lions four times, twice scoring over the century mark .

The Lions scored their sev-enth straight win by beating Okmulgee A & M Tech Wednes-day night at the Okmulgee high school gymnasium by 79-66.

Howard Pat terson, Lewis Bennett , and Ed G r a h a m com-bined their efforts to score 63 points of the 79 point total for the Lions. Pa t te rson held high point honors with 24, followed closely by Bennett with 23. G r a h a m came in third by swish-ing the nets for 16.

Fo r the losing Okmulgee t e a m Wade Er lbacker netted 16, followed by Howard Fr iend and John Rollings with 14 each.

Neither t eam seemed to hit the bucket in the opening min-utes of the game, but the Lions finally found the range and at the end of the f irs t half led Ok-mulgee 38-33.

As the Lions lined up for the second period tip a new menace appeared on the floor in the fo rm of "Rosie" Wallis, 6'5 1/2" center for Okmulgee. Accord-ing to the Okmulgee coach, Wallis was preaching at a local church during the f i rs t half.

As the second half progress-ed the Lions ran into a s t reak of bad luck, allowing the Ok-mulgee t eam to tie the score, 51 all.

The Lion's began a fast-mov-ing offense and point-stingy de-fense. Howard Pat terson broke the ice by hitting a swishing set shot to put the Lions ahead 53-51.

College Gets Tall Transfer

Rebounding ability will be found in J immy Wilhite, a 6'4" center t ransferr ing to junior college from the Ouachita Bap-tist college next semester .

The tal1 center will begin regular workouts with the Lions January 30, according to Coach J im Charles.

Wilhite played high school ball a t the Greenwood high school. He was a t e a m m a t e with Charles Angeletti and J im McGee, who are presently play-ing with the Lions.

"I think Wilhite will prove an asset to the t eam because of his height and rebounding abil-ity," said Coach Charles. Basketball Schedule

JC Downs Bacone Before Small Crowd

Though both t eams showed brief f lashes of good form, the junior college Lions defeated the Bacone college five 65-54 before a small crowd Wednes-day night at the Boys' club.

Both t eams got off to a slow s tar t in the game, but with ten and a half minutes left in the f irs t half, JC had built up a 20-12 lead. The Lions continued to dominate play over the slug-gish Bacone t eam until, with about two minutes left in the f irst half, the Lion second t eam entered the game with a lead of 30-19.

Bacone came alive and quick-ly narrowed the gap; when the f irst half ended, the Lions led by only four points, 30-26.

A f i r ed -up Bacone squad roared back af te r intermission and quickly tied the score a t 30-all. In the next ten minutes the lead changed hands eight t imes, with neither t eam able to pull away from the other. J im Goud-reau, who scored 12 points in the second half, sparked the Bacone quintet during this period. Lion hopes were kept alive by the shooting of Howard Pat terson, E d G r a h a m , David Ross, and Lewis Bennett .

With the score tied a t 48-48, Ross sank a field goal that put the Lions ahead to stay.

With about five minutes left in the game, For res t Khilling hit for two points, and the Lions began to pull away f rom Ba-cone. Khilling hit two more field goals, and Graham sank two to put the Lions ahead 63-52.

Bob Dowell made a charity toss, and Pa t te rson ended Lion scoring with a field goal. As the final seconds came, Bacone added another f ree throw to end the scoring.

Pa t te rson took scoring honors for the game with 18 points, followed closely by Graham with 17. Goudreau sank 15 for the losers, and Don Overton added 13. J i m Delso made 12 points, all in the first half.

when Wallis ripped the nets for Okmulgee on a driving lay-up, but not to be outdone, Lion guard Graham put the Lions on the leading end again by connecting with a net-ripping set shot.

The score was tied for the last t ime in the game when John Rollings, Okmulgee guard, hit two out of three attempts on technical charity tosses.

The turning point of the game came when a technical foul was charged against Coach J im Charles for disputing a decision by the referee. This was all the incentive the Lions needed, for the fired-up squad roared f rom behind and quickly took the lead.

As they came into the home stretch, Lew Bennett and How-ard Patterson led the Lions to

victory in the closing minutes of the game by a sudden burst of sensational scoring.

The Fort Smith junior college Lions became champions of the sixth annual Christmas Holiday tournament by beat-ing the favored Dodson Avenue Pharmacy 87-65 at the Boys' club last New Years eve.

At the close of the tournament, base line shooter Lewis Bennett and crafty Ed Graham were among the 10 chosen for the All-Tournament team.

The Lions played against terr if ic odds to capture the championship. Arnold Short,

6'4" former Oklahoma City university All-American, ac-counted for 25 of Dodson's 65 point total to hold high point honor.

L I O N ' S R O A R College To Receive Bids On Curtains

Friday, January 11, 1957

No date has been announced for receiving new bids on cur-tains in the fine a r t s building theater , according to Dean E .

T. Vines. Previous bids received on the

curtains by JC officials were too high, Dean Vines said.

A committee of Miss Ed Louise Ballman, Vines, and Mrs. Ralph Speer has been ap-pointed to select the fabr ic and colors of the curtains.

More than $2,425 in equip-ment has been added to the agriculture depar tment since its beginning in September of last year .

Several teaching aids, a min-eral collection, a 1956 seed test collection, a lantern slide pro-jector, a soil test kit, and a complete agriculture l ibrary are among the equipment added.

The animal science class, with the instructor, Wayne Anthony, has visited the University of Arkansas twice. The week be-fore Christmas the class studied Angus cattle at the Circle R ranch, and also visited the OK Feed mill, the only push-but-ton feed mill in the South.

Those attending were: Bill Johnson, Bill Home, Bill Mc-Bride, Raymond Sharum, Bob Por ter , Benny Blevins, and C. J . Havens.

Since its beginning the agri depar tment has been expanded to include forestry, agr i eco-nomics, horticulture, and bo-tany, according to Anthony.

"There are three t imes as many jobs open in Arkansas in economics and agriculture as there is in any other par t of the South," Anthony said. Smithson Speaks To Psychology Class

As a public service to freshmen who have not been through the tragedy of the age, a final exam, the Lion's Roar staff presents the following suggestions for studying for the tests:

First of all begin digging through your notebook and find all of your notes for one class. This in itself is a chore which usually ends with one conclusion—what the heck happened to those notes you diligently took in class.

If your notebook doesn't yield all of the notes, an impossibility incidentally, i t 's t ime to begin a systemat ic search through books and desks. One good habit , is keeping all of your notes in a spiral notebook. Then you can lose all of them at one t ime. Convenience is the word. This is also a neater way to lose your notes on the bus or s treet corner and you won't be as much of a "Litterbug."

Arrange the Notes When all of the notes, un-

earthed by the t reasure hunt, a re ar ranged a s they were taken, it's t ime to begin leafing through and finding where the gaps are . Ten-to-one you'll have all the unimportant details of the court life of the Sun King, Louis XVI, and won't be able to find anywhere the eight reasons for the Hundred Years War. But then don't worry too much. Whatever you don't have will be covered thoroughly on the test .

Another annoyance most note t ake r s find is tha t at the bot-tom of page 48 you have writ-ten in a bold hand, "The six ways not to use gerunds." Then you find tha t page 49 is lost and so you haven ' t the faint-est idea about the correct use of gerunds. Now you are so con-fused tha t you don't exactly know what a gerund is. Writing Becomes Illegible

And most note takers find that whenever you reach a point marked "know for final" the writing suddenly becomes illegi-ble.

When you have all of your notes collected—all you could find, that is—you are ready for

a most important step. That is analyzing the notes for content and importance. Study them carefully, trying to remember outstanding events of importance.

Now comes the hardest step in studying for a final. That 's be-ginning to learn the notes. Very often you will find a list that has to be memorized. This may range f rom the four outstanding Guate-mala composers to uses for alphamethylnaphthalene.

In such a case it's time to re-sort to a favorite of many—a memory device. Suppose, for ex-ample, you have to know four English poets: Fletcher, Eliot, Raleigh, and Pope. Simply take the first letter of each name, FERP, and compose a sentence with each word beginning with the f i rs t letter, in order. Illustra-tion: "Father Eats Raw Potatoes." The only catch is that when you get ready for the English litera-tu re test you may forget the names and remember only, "Father eats raw potatoes." Poor

fellow, he's liable to get indiges-

tion that way too. By this time you are probably

slightly confused. But don't worry about it. You need to re-lax. This is a good time to pick up the evening paper and see what movie looks the best. After all, almost all teachers say that it's good to relax before a test.
