LAMAR TECHANS
The sometimes forgotten
element in Tech activities,
the Chee rleaders, are
responsible for more than
their title implies.
Lamar's 6 varsity lead-
ers, Camile Buford, head,
Carol Scalco, Don Brent,
Anti one tte Modica, Tom
Chambers, and Linda
Tomlin, first had to be
passed by an official
screening board before
they could be considered
e 1 i g i b le for Spring elec-
t i o n s . Carole Pavlic and
Floyd Trahan, Freshman
lead ers, also prove their
ability before Fall tryouts.
In addition to proving
their quality and ability in
m o t i v a t ing a sometimes
apathetic cheering section
at home football games, the
group usually travels with
the team. Basketball sea-
son also finds them on
hand to boost morale in
the bleachers. Individual
projects, such as the
banners displayed on the
stands at home football
games can be attributed to
the Cardinal leaders.
Apparently, the cheer-
leaders have found time
from their own individual
activities to expend more
energy for Lamar and her
students. The responsi-

One of the most coveted
s c h o 1 arships among col-
leges of America is the

This scholarship entitles
the winner to study at their
choice of any university
in the world for one year
after receiving their
batchelor’s degree. It is
provided by any country

clubs.
"Each district is eligible
for a R otary Foundation
Fellowship every other
year; each club in an
eligible district may
sponsor one applicant "

t i o n a 1 a uthorities in the
various districts con-
cerning- the applicants'
outstanding scholarships, ,
characters, and inter-
national interests.
According to Dean David
Bost, Dean of Student Life
at Lamar Tech and past
Chairman of the Rotary <
Foundation of this district;
#591, "We are always
looking for possible candi-
dates and are very happ y
to see them when we find
them."
P o s s i ble applicants are
recommended by the com-
mittee to the Board of
Directors of the Districts
and, after receiving
e n d o r sement of the club, *
they are given application
forms.
These forms must be
submitted by Aug. 1 of the
year preceding their
commencement of studies.
Not later than Aug. 15,
these*applications are sent
to the district governor
for consideration.
The basic requirements
for these "Rotary Fellows" ,
include: (1) must be an
unmarried man or woman
(2) must be between the
ages of 20 and 29 (3) must
have a batchelor's degree
(4) must be a citizen of the
country of permanent
residence (5) must have
proficience in the language
of the country of study.
Th e f i r st suggestion of
an International Foundation,
to increase understanding
between the many countries
was in 1917. However,
there was little reaction
among the members of the
convention,
Then in 1918 at the Min- 4
n e a p o lis convention, fol- 1
lowing the previous
suggestion, The Rotary
F oundation was estab-
lished. Its purpose was to
foster understanding and
friendly relations between
peoples of different nations
through " tanible and
effective" projects.
In 1932 the first Founda-J
tion committee was formed
and steps were taken to
increase funds to carry out
its objectives. Due to the
war however, it was not
until 1 947 that the first
Rotary Foundation Fellow-
ships for International
Understanding were
inauguarated.
Only one Lamar graduate
has received this much-
desired award. He is Elvis*
Mason, a government
major, who is now studying
at the University of South
Africa.
This Foundation has
greatly helped to increase
the educational privileges
of students all over the
world. Between the years
1947 and 1962, 1320
Fellowships have been
awarded to 1,007 men and
303 women from 67 coun-,
tries for study in 45
countries.
Dr.Edwin S. Hayes, head
of the Biology Department
and present Chairman of
the Rotary Foundation
Committee, is quite pleas-
ed with the accomplish-
ments of the Foundations
and says, "There has been
a 1 o t of good done by this
scholarship and many
students have gained a good
year’s experience."
