Where the Akchin Is ... Graduation is almost here. And
wiflh graduation comes a flood of graduation presents, follow.ed by a trick le of thank you notes. The hardest part abou~ writ ing thank you notes is thanking people (tha.t you hardly .know) for things flhat you hardly want. I've been holding back my real thoughts for a long !lime, but now I've decided to print the notes I would LIKE to write.

Fitzpatrick, Goza, Art Classes Receive Appreciation forWork
· Not a hand shake, not a plaque, or any awa rd could ever express the deep appreciation !llhat should be given to Mr. Charles Fitzpatrick, Mr. Fred Goza and their art classes. They, together with the Shreve Audubon Ar.t Club, have put forth much effort and time in helping to beautify Captain Shreve with their works of art.
Because of their unselfish work t1hey have Sl)ppl ied the office, cafeteria, library, and auditor ium wi~h enjoyable pictures .throughout the year. The Coat of Arms was probably the most most va luable gift from the art classes considering it was a Captain Shreve first. Art classes have also made such contributions as des igning scenery for the talent show, prom, dances, assemblies and plays.
Sen ior Ginger Clark designed the car decal , Kathy Pr ice helped wi.th t,e football certificates and NFL certif icates, and Sharon
,George helped with the Qu il l and Scrol l cert ificates.
Mem bers of the art classes entered in the parish-wide arJ show that was disp layed in the Pierremont Mall. Sen iors Don French , Gordon Ki ssinger, and jun ior Paul Kethley represented Captain. Shreve in the Hol iday-inDixie Art Show, winninq places of first, second and third . Also,
the Shreve Aud u.bon Art Club en.tered a banner in the ShreveWoodlawn Banner Contest.
Th is year's art department has slanted a permanent collection of students' works. Th is collection w iJ.J. be used for exh ibits and demonstrations by the school. Outstand ing contributing work this year were sen ior Pam Lew is,

Art II ; sophomore Fred Ga inforte, Ant II; and sophomore Bobby Graef, Art II.
Besides all their other efforts the S1h reve Aud ubon Art CIJ.; b has found time to make ceramic gator banks to be sold to any student who w ishes to buy one for $3.00 each.
What's the Solution? Did you know that 6,700,000
students attend the nat ion's 2,500 colleges and fewer than 2 per cent are destructive radicals? This 2 per cent, however, amounts to perhaps 1 00,000 activists which is enough to carry on a guer illa war. There have been d isorders leaf-ing from campus to campus, but student violence didn'•t orig inate in this day and age. It has a recurrent problem throughout history. In 1•825, the University of Virginia's faculty requested police protection against "personal danger" from billigerent ~tudents. Other professors of the 19th century on U. S. campuses were shouted at and pelted with refuse.
There is supposed to be an antidote for violence. At least it is what the '14th century colleges did. Their solut ion was in-
tellectual fu lfil lment - d iscover· ing knowledge under a teacher one truly admired. Ear ly 20tr century colleges forestalled vio· lence by offering elect ive course! and extravagant athletics, say· ing education was salvation.
All this knowledge was derived from Time magazine.

As Ma y 23 approaches, this senior sees the Golden Gator becom ing more and more a memory. It is a memory of exce llence and achievement , mainly because of the leadersh:p of one man.
When Capta in Shreve High School f irst opened its doors on September 4, 1967, one man assumed the position of sculptor and trail boss. From t•he very beg inning this man's !hand guided and molded .the growth of his work of art . He added to his mold and took from it, and when he had finished , a round building was filled wi.th a thriving student body with the sculptor at the helm.
But even after his sculpture was completed, ~here was more· work to do, so this rl'fan assumed another role . He became the trail boss of a young, wild .herd, eager to grow and expand . He was a cautious leader, and felt

that the herd should know where .the authority lay. He established a respect for his leadership, and he then ruled wi~h a just and steady hand.
Th is man grew fond of those under his leadership, and he d id whatver he could so that they could be happy. He protected them when they needed protection; ihe pushed them when they needed encouragement; pun ished them when they wa rranted punishment, and he pra ised them when they we re deserv ing of it. That leader, that sculptor, that trail ·boss was, of course , Mr. Stanley Powell, principal at Captain Shreve.
The ENTERPRISE wiSihes to say only rhankyou to a devoted man who has made possible a brilliant future for the Golden Ga-tors.

It was a sincere privilege, as well as pleasure, for me to serve as your Student Council President during this period. Opportunities such as this seldom come along, and it is not often that one is as for.tunate as I was in being cJble to work in such close contact for ~he past two years with l>he administration, tne raculity, and especially, you - ,fihe heart crf Captain Shreve -ttie students. I persona lly gained many insights and bits of knowJ.edge during my term of off ice, and I realize now, in looking back,. lttat it is an experience which I shall always remember and shall oflen recall. in the future . ,
:f believe that we, the Student Council, as an organization, acx:omplished many objectives dur ing the past two mon~hs, and, more importantly, laid flhe groundwork and set the goals for which many of you, w ill strive in the future. It is up to those of you who will silep into the pos itions held during the past year by "Seniors '•69," to carry on and to improve 11he traditions and customs established by the first two gradualting classes at Captain Shreve. And frankly, it is my bel ief that the heritage crf "Gatorland" is in good hands.

When in dire need of locating this young man, one might look for a bfond-lia ired·, blue-eyed male in a green '·67 Mustang at the Sub and Ale room in Bayer's Red Coach Inn ~by the way that wC!S not a plug), or one might run upon him sailing smoothly around the lake after the sun .has gone down.

Skipper concludes his years at C. S. by saying, "I had a great time at Cap'tain Shreve for thepast two years and I am really glad I transferred here ." His summer plans include working for his father at Hycalog, Inc. He plans to attend L. S. U. in the deep South this fall.

Folklore concerning alligators comprises a variety of exaggerations. and outright inaccuracies, mainly relating to the strength of these reptiles and their langecity.
One alligator farm in Florida advertises that some of its anc_ient _ inhabit~nts may approach 1,000 .years in age. This is simply advertising enthusiasm. Both alligators and crocidiles aotually grow more rapidly than people realize . l:he maximum age definit~ly known is ..56 years, a rec
ord · recorded tor ~he American Alligator.
A frequently encountered tale· cqm:erns how alligators and crocidiles c.an be distinguished by the exclusive way each opens its mouth . According to this yarn, the alligator opens his mouth by moving the upper jaw, while the crocidile is reputed to open its month by raising the lower jaw. Both open their mouths in the usual way moving only the lower jaw.
But d id you think that alligators came as only four-legged, man-eating creatures? Well, you are wrong. They can also be found as flies, apples, ffsh, gars, lizards, turtles, pears, trees, belts and cities.
The alligator fly (Dobson) is common all over North America. It is dull brown in color and has a wing span of four inches.
As for alligator apples, you can grow that green ish or darkbrown fruit from New York to Texas.
To catch an alligator f ish of rhe Agonidae species is to capture a 12-inch slender body armored by large bony plates. If

Breiffeilh Throws Midnight 'Orgy'
For anyone to see a gray, pre-aged Lenny Lyle stumbling up the stairs one Thursday and Friday, would be enough to know that Capt a in Shreve's in: terpretation of "Our Town" was on stage.
lihirty days of late rehearsals and bad grades culminated into two, two-hour shows as the troupe performed May 8 and 9 to substantial aud iences.
A cast party held at Andy Breffe ilh's house the night of May 9, allowed exhausted players to let off the .tension of bot-h n ight's performances. Highlights of the evening included a spellbinding game of miniature pool and an almost too-close dip into the lake for one unsuspecting Larry Williams.
The play and crew were under the able direction of Mr. John "Rock" W.alters . Beverly Egan, president of Drama Club, gave her time to assume the assistant director's position.
The backstage crew included Peggy Cummings, Yarv.a Green, Peggy Hartsell , Linda Jue, Stan King, Bonnie Leonard, Lenny Lyles, Daryl Muslow, Susan Nicholson, Linda Riggins, and Teresa Slaugh~er.
