BUY A PROGRAM
When you go to the football
game Saturday night be sure to
buy a program. In so doing, you
will be helping the cash fund of
the Scouts who are selling them
and giving the program a good
circulation.
FACULTY
ENLARGES
Seven new teachers have been
added to the faculty for 1950-51
according to Dr. John Gray, Pres-
ident. They are Lee Roy Tunnel,
Joe Williams, and Bruce Wyatt
in the Vocational division, Wr. E.
Holtcamp in mathematics, Dr. P.
B. Williams in social science,
Miss Crystal Canon in speech and
P. W. Latimer in mathematics.
Mr. Latimer is a former mem-
ber of the faculty. He has re-
turned after being away for sev-
eral years and Prof. C. Darwin
Kirsey of the Business division
has resumed his work after a
year's leave of absence for gradu-
ate study.
Three of the faculty members
are on leave of absence for this
year; George Parks, Jr., head of
the Music department at George
Peabody college for Teachers,
Lloyd B. Cherry, head of the
Physics department at Oklahoma
A. & M., and Pete Terwey,
mathematics, at the University of
North Carolina.
Guidance Center Helps
Students Find Jobs
Tests covering English, mathe-
matics, aptitude, ability and gen-
eral knowledge have been taken
by each of the eleven hundred
students at Lamar in the first few
days of the fall semester.
According to W. J. Holloway,
director of veterans advisement
center, the results of these tests
can be of vital aid to student and
counselor alike in mapping a col-
lege program or degree plan. The
use of these test results can guide
them in selecting a college course
that will fit the student’s inter-
ests, background, and ability.
All students, veterans, non-
veterans, new and old are elig-
ible for the services offered by
the Testing and Guidance Center.
The office is located in the Li-
brary, and Mr. Holloway- and
his assistant, Mrs. Dorothy Hayes,
are on duty from 8 a.m. until 4
p.m.
CARDINAL BAND
WELL BALANCED
Waltei*C. Minniear, Mr. Music
on the Lamar campus, has the
college band well under way with
a well-balanced, 43-member or-
ganization. Mr. Minniear said
that he was “more than pleased
with the response.”
At the Thursday morning as-
sembly program the band pre-
sented a menu of march music
and accompaniment for the cheer
leaders; the student body enjoyed
an example of the fine music the
band will produce.
Other of Mr. Minniear’s musi-
cal endeavors at Lamar are the
orchestra, the chorus and sponsor-
ship of the cheer leaders. All of
which adds up to a large job and
many headaches. The chorus
consists of 29 melodious voices,
while the orchestra’s eight mem-
bers are made up of four strings,
three brass, and one woodwind.
Mr. Minniear issued a plea for
orchestra members, with a special
invitation to those who play
stringed instruments.
Two Clubs Elect
The first meeting of the 1950-
51 Revelers Club was held Mon-
day in the Union gymnasium for
the purpose of electing officers.
Those chosen to lead the club
this year were Ann Gray, presi-
dent; Martha Williams, vice-
president; Georgianne Kelly, re-
cording secretary; Jody Taylor,
recording secretary; Ja^klynn
Holland, treasurer; Dinky John-
son, publicity chairman; Loretta
Serio and Libby Reagan, social
chairmen.
A meeting was called for
Wednesday night, at which time
a rush tea was planned and a
sponsor elected.
The Southern Belles, in a meet-
ing held before the opening of
school, elected as their officers
the following girls: Maurine
Brown, president; Jo Anne
Owens, vice - president; Nancy
Wallace, secretary; Beth Ann
Sperling, treasurer; Marilyn
Townsley, publicity chairman;
and Sarah Parker, social chair-
man.
McLaughlin
Instructs Clubs
On Organization
All presidents of campus clubs
and student organizations were
urged this morning to check with
M. L. McLaughlin, administra-
tive assistant, and fill out proper
papers so their groups will be
recognized officially for 1950-51.
Procedures for re-organizing
dormant clubs or organizing new
ones are available in his office.
Official recognition carries
with it the privilege of recogni-
tion by the Redbird and by the
Cardinal, student annual. Groups
not officially recognized will be
denied space in the yearbook and
likely will not be recognized by
the newspaper in the near future.
Mr. McLaughlin asked clubs
to notify him immediaely when
officers for 1950-51 are elected
and faculty sponsors are chosen.
He also desires a membership list
as soon as fall initiations are
completed.
Standards to be met in order
to gain official recognition are
as follows:
1. Must have a sponsor who is
a regular member of the faculty.
2. Official meetings must be
attended by the sponsor or his or
her faculty representative.
3. Minutes of official meetings
and accurate financial records to
be maintained in a permanent
form and available at all times
for examination by club mem-
bers, sponsors, the Organizations
and Activities committee of the
faculty or by the business man-
ager.
4. Any club may be classified
as college sponsored if it has a
worthy objective and meets the
above requirements. Applications
for approval, available in the of-
fice of the Administrative Assist-
ant, are to be submitted to the
Dean of Student Life (Prof. Nor-
ris Kelton).
5. College sponsored clubs are
entitled to use the facilities of the
college, such as meeting places
and bulletin boards. They are
also entitled to recognition by the
Redbird and the Cardinal.
The Club Organizational report
which all organizations must sub-
mit seeks answers to the follow-
ing questions:
Name, sponsor, president, vice-
president, secretary, treasurer,
other officers, whether the group
is a men’s, women’s or mixed
organization, its purpose, when it
was first organized if known, re-
quirements for membership, how
members are selected, the general
type of initiation if any and types
of activities in which the club
engages.
LAMAR AIDS
JOB SEEKERS
Although part-time jobs are not
so frequently available as full-
time ones, the Lamar student
placement bureau makes every
effort to aid students in finding
employment, the bureau director,
W. J. Holloway said yesterday.
Requests for all kinds of work-
ers from baby sitters to insurance
salesmen have been received and
filled by the bureau in past years.
Graduate students have also been*
assisted in seeking and finding
suitable employment through the
facilities of the bureau.
Students interested in finding
temporary employment now or
who need advice in seeking perm-
anent positions upon graduation
may fill out application blanks
at the bureau office which is lo-
cated in the Library.
