It is with pleasure that I extend my congratulations and appreciation to the graduating class- congratulations for your achievements and appreciation for your cooperation.

Our associations with you have been pleasant, and we feel that the degree to which you have succeeded has been due more to your own efforts and attitudes than to our attempts as teachers and administra­tive officers. We shall be glad to hear of your further progress in higher education or in the business or profession which you have chosen. -

To the students who will return here next year, we extend a cordial welcome, and we look forward with pleasure to our continued fellow­ship and work together.

R E s I D E N T

D

In this year, 1942, events go much more rapidly than the mind of

man. Setting aside anxiety for the future, as we should, the world of action now challenges the world of mentality merely to keep pace

with it. For those who want education, the whole field of interpretation

of the events now transpiring is like untilled soil.

Forgetting what seem to be ominous uncertainties for all and prob­

able insecurity for the individual, and remembering that life is short at best, we can still enjoy the interest created by rapidly changing seer.es on the stage of human life. Our class of 1942 goes out into a world which challenges those who place mind above matter. May !.Uch an attitude always be yours, is my wish.

With only seven of Last yea r's lettermen back, the

Mul erider's 1941 football campaign turned out to be

one of the most success ful in the history of th e coll ege.

The Mul er id ers fini shed the season with eight victories

and only one defeat, a total of r r 5 points aga inst th e

22 points made by th e opposit ion, sco red against by

on ly two tea ms, and no losses at home for th e second

year und er the coaching of A r vil Green.

Coach G reen began hi s fir st yea r at A . a nd M. at

the same time that the school's particip ation in inter­

co ll egi ate sports w as renewed-last yea r. T hat his

coach ing has been doubly effecti ve is shown by the

fact th at th is second year und er him \\;as one of the

best th e team has ever had in spite of hi s being handi ­

capped by sta rting th e first yea r with men who had

not pl ayed together before. ma ny of w hom who had

pl ayed only in hig h school athl etics.

The Mul erid ers were ca ptained for th e second time

by R. C. "Sha rkey" Sh elton until an arm injury in

mid-season ha lted most of hi s p lay for th e yea r. F rom

then on, Earl Parks, passing ace of th e Aggies, led the

team.

A lthough the M ulerid ers p layed only one confe rence

The only defeat of the season was handed out to the

Muleriders by the hard-hitting Paris Dragons at Paris,

Texas, on October 2. Both Pari s touchdowns came in

the last three minutes of the first half. A 35-ya rd pass

comp letion accounted for the first, and an interception

coup led with a run for the same distance was good

The Muleriders showed a greatly improved team in

downing the strong Frosh 6-o on a muddy field in

big ground gainer for the game.

Even their staunchest supporters were startled as the

Muleriders battled their way to a 6-o up set victory over

the powerful Henderson Reddies on a muddy, rain­

swept gridiron at the Columbia Stadium. A spectacular

40-yard return of a punt midway in the second quarter

was the play that decided the issue. The Magnolia

line, outweighed 10 pounds to the man, outcharged the

larger Henderson forwards from start to finish. Offen­

COACH ARVIL GREEN

Coach Arvill Green began the basket­

ball season this year with four returning

lettermen: Wooten, who was soon lost to

the Army, Wayne McMahen, W . L. Starks, and Bill Mashaw, and a lot of un­

tried freshman talent.

The Aggies lost the season's op~ning

game to the Centenary Gentlemen, 58-50,

before by far the largest crowd to see a

basketball game here in two years. The

Gents jumped off to an early lead and

seemed on the way to a lopsided win. Mid­

way the first half the count was Cen­

tenary's, 29-10, but a series of rapid-fire

field goals, brought the locals to within

nine points of the visitors. The Gents

struck back and were out in front, 36-19,

at the half. The last half was a different

story, with "Speedy" Bradley scoring

from every angle to run up 18 points for the Aggies. The Aggie line-up was:

Forwards, Gammill, Bradley, Bell, Copeland; Centers: W. McMahen, Duncan;

Guards: Bloomfield, Mashaw, L. McMahen, Starks.

After Louisiana State Normal had made two wins over the Aggie five, State

Teachers' rangy Bears scored an impressive 53-29 win over a scrappy Mulerider

quintet here in the conference opener for both teams. The Teachers took an

early lead and, with the exception of once in the first half when the Riders

pulled up to within five points of the leaders, were never in danger. The Bears

led at the half, 27 -14. Play was rough and three Aggies, Duncan, ]. Bradley,

and L. McMahen were ejected on fouls. The local five as a whole showed

more spirit than on any previous occasion.

The Muleriders outscored the Lewisville Prides, 49-40, for their first basket­

ball victory of the season. The Prides jumped off to an 8-2 lead and for a

while it seemed that the Riders would be unable to break the tight zone defense

put up by the Independents. A mixture of free throws and long shots soon

brought the Aggies up to 10-10, and from there on they were in the lead. With

the Muleriders out in front by a comfortable margin, the second half was

marked more by rough play than good basketball.

Next, the Muleriders turned the tables on the McMillan Oilers of El

Dorado by handing back the d~feat they had given the Aggies in a previous

game. The 35-28 setback was avenged three days later by the Aggies in a

scoring spree which set the final count at 62-37. "Speedy" Bradley broke his

own record by netting 26 points while Mashaw was next with 17 points.

[ 92]

In the next Independent contests, the Lewisville Prides dropped two games

in a row to the Riders. In the second game, the Prides were bested by the scant

margin of 57-55. Considerably off form in the early part of the game, the

Riders trailed 20-26 at the rest period but soon made up the difference. The

lead changed hands often, and the outcome was uncertain until the very end.

The Aggies won their first conference game of the season by decisively

trouncing the Hendrix Warriers, 48-42. The Muleriders turned in their best

performance in years. The Riders got off to a fast start and after ten minutes

of play led 15-1. A tight zone defense kept the Hendrix quintet back on its

heels. Taking no chances, the Aggies played safe and protected their lead the

last half. A desperate thrust in the waning minutes of play saved the Meth­

odists from a beating that would have been even more severe.

In a practice tilt that turned out to be a tough battle, the Muleriders nosed

our a determined basketball quintet from the neighboring Conscientious

Objectors' Camp, 33-32. The C. O.'s found the Aggies' defense no problem

and took the l'!ad from the beginning. Com­

fortably, but not safely, the visitors stayed out

in front the entire first half, holding a 20-17

advantage at the rest period. The Riders

spurted and tied the count at 27-all, only to

see the opponents pick up three points and

appear safe with three minutes left to play. A

pair of field goals in the closing minutes gave

the Aggies the decision.

The Henderson Reddies ran up a 66-46 vic­

tory over the Aggies. The Reddies were on

from the start and hit the basket with an

assortment of shots from all corners to gain a

big lead. Mashaw headed the Aggies' scorers

with 19 points. With the Reddies out in front

30-17 at the half, the Muleriders took on new

life after the rest period when Wayne Mc­

Mahen sank two from underneath the basket,

and the revived team pulled up to within five

points of the leaders before the onslaught was

stopped.

In a return engagement with the Reddies, the

Aggies led until the last ten minutes of the

L 94 J

game when a sudden rush gave the visitors a

48-36 victory. The locals appeared determined

from the start to stage an upset. With center

Wayne McMahen leading the way, the Riders

kept the upper hand until their score was 32-26

in the middle of the second half. Then, tiring

under the strain of a height handicap and lack

of reserve strength, the Aggies were pushed back

to a 12-point disadvantage when the final

whistle blew. The Aggies were headed for vic­

tory the greater part of the contest, but when

they faded, they faded fast. Six points were

made by the Reddies in the closing 4 5 seconds

of play.

Northeast Junior College's Indians won two

cage contests from the Aggies, 41-37 and 43-30.

In both encounters the Muleriders were notice­

ably off form. The Indians offered a hard­

charging, fast-breaking quintet that would

never say quit. About even in height, the ac­

curate shooting eye of a trio of Monroe for­

wards proved the difference.

In the first game the Northeastern five

jumped to an early lead but were tied at seven­

all. From then on, more than three points

never separated the two clubs. The Aggies

grabbed the advantage after the half, but it

was short-lived. The Indians went out in front

to remain there until the final five seconds.

Substitute center Doy Duncan entered the

contest for the Aggies with only two minutes

of play left and made two field goals that

brought the Riders to within one point of the

Redmen. A foul shot deadlocked the count at

37-37 as the regulation time ended. Two field

goals netted a victory for the Louisianians 111

the five-minute over-time period.

The last game, an afternoon affair, was slow

and again the basket was hard to find for the

Aggies. Boasting an 18-14 lead at the half, the

Indians got completely out of control as the

contest progressed.

In a game with the state champions, State

Teachers' rangy Bears, the Aggies were de­

feated 56-36, although the score was only 22-15

against them at the half. Belote was high man

for the Bears with 19 points, while Bradley

made 13 for the Riders.

Hendrix avenged an early season loss to the

Aggies by beating them, 61-56. Held scoreless

for the first four minutes, Hendrix made ten

points in two minutes and took a lead that it

held through the first half. At intermission

the Methodists were leading, 33-22. Magnolia

came back fast in the second half and made 14

points in four minutes to tie the score at 47.

Hendrix quickly regained the lead and was

never in danger after that. Atkinson and

Harton made 40 points together for Hendrix,

while Bradley and McMahen tallied 3 5 for

Magnolia.

Two games with the Northeast Junior Col­

lege Indians closed the season for the Mule­

riders. Although its record of wins against

conference teams was far from impressive, the

Aggies were good sports in every sense of the

word, win or lose.

* W. G. BAGNALL

Director of Men's Phys­

ical Educat ion Depart­

ment.

W. G. Bagnall, new instructor for men's

physical education, is a graduate of L. S. U.

After his graduation Mr. Bagnall served as

assistant director of intramural athletics at

L. S. U. for a year. The next two years were

spent in Chatom, Alabama, where he was

physical education instructor and coach. There

he built a well-rounded athletic program for a

high school that had never had a physical educa­

tion system of any kind. Mr. Bagnall has been

an instructor in physical education at L. S. U.

the past two summers.

Mr. Bagnall planned an intramural program

co cover the whole year and to include about

thirteen sports. Six teams were organized to

compete in the contests, each team having a stu­

dent manager to direct the team and to sit in

the executive council.

Officers of the executive council were W. L. Starks, president; Chester Moore, vice-president;

J ady Copeland, secretary. Other members were

Managers Billy Thomas, Orris Nipper, and

Reece Phillips, and Assistants Mack Ramsey,

Robert Price, E. B. Jones, and R. L. Cummings.

Jady Copeland was elected as head of the

Eagles for the top floor of McCrary hall and

W . L. Starks, the Trojans from Holt hall and

the bottom floor of McCrary. Howard War­

ren's successor as manager of the Spartans of

the middle floor McCrary hall was Reece

Phillips. The Commodores from the bottom

floor of Cross were directed by Joe Ned Bras­

well and the Jacks of the top floor of Cross

hall by Orris Nipper. The day students organ­

ized their team as the Rebels and elected Billy

Thomas to direct them.

In the first tournament to be played off, the

McCrary Eagles stormed their way through

without a defeat to win the softball champion­

ship. Managed by Jady Copeland, the Eagles

nosed out the Trojans 7-6 in the first game,

trampled the Rebels in the second round, and

then downed the Jacks twice to take the crown.

Lanky Doy Duncan was on the mound in each

of the Eagle victories and deserved much of the

credit, along with the infield combinations of

Dunlap, Bradley, ]innings, and Copeland.

The second-place Jacks were able to beat

every team except the Eagles, and were given

the runner-up berth without a dissent. The

Trojans came in third while the Rebels and

Commodores failed to place.

The No. 1 softball fan on the hill, Professor

*

H. Wilson Young, led the cheer­

ing for the Eagles every time.

This teacher certainly left no

doubt as to which side had his

support.

The team managers elected an

All-Star softball team with Doy

Duncan as pitcher, Bud Phillips,

catcher; Jady Copeland, Troy

Foreman, Speedy Bradley, base­

men; Mack Dunlap, shortstop;

Carrel Barge, Lee Woodall, Joe

Garlington, Joe Gammill, fielders.

: i.:ch football championship for the second

~ccessive year in the annual intramural tour­

-ament. The Rebs opened the tourney by rolling

over the Trojans, 27-6. After that they edged

~t the Eagles and subdued the Jacks in the

semi-finals. Then the Trojans, who had come

ail the way with only the Rebs' defeat to mar

their record, put the standings in a scramble by

Geating the Rebs 6-0 in the play-off. The Rebs

pushed the Trojans back to second place; third

place went to the Spartans, and the Jacks took

fourth.

The Jacks annexed the intramural basketball

crown for the second year in a row by downing

the Rebs, 23-15, in the play-off battle. Some

good strategy by Manager Nipper was probably

responsible for the triumph. Loser to the day

srudents in a previous tussle and trailing 15-9

a: the end of the third quarter, the Cross hall

quintet changed from its customary zone defense

o a man-to-man type of resistance. The result '

was reflected by the score. In the final period

the Rebs were held scoreless while the Jacks ran

up fourteen points. Contributing factors in that

final thrust were Nipper, Woodall, Edward

Cook, and William Drake. Long shots by

Royce McMahen and Otha Beene kept the Rebs

in the running for most of the contest.

Second place consolation went to the day stu­

dents, while third position was awarded the

Trojans and the Spartans landed fourth. Out

of the picture were the Eagles who lost their

only two games.

Other tournaments were scheduled to be

played in soccer, speedball, volleyball, baseball,

tennis, badminton, ping pong, shuffieboard,

horseshoes, and basketball freethrow.

All intramural contests were open to every

one in school and were planned to encourage

more participation in athletics. This was part of

the better health and physical fitness program

planned by the Physical Education department.

Miss Holly Frederick, new Director of the Women's Physical Education De­partment and intramural sports, and sponsor of the W. R. A., received her AB. degree from Brenau College and received her M.S. degree from Louisiana State University. Miss Frederick has spent three summers as instructor at a girl's camp, and while at L. S. U. she taught physical education for two years.

The Women's Recreational Associa­tion planned a sports program for the year to include any athletically inclined girls on the campus. Plans were made to have contests in eight sports: soccer, bas­ketball, volleyball, tennis, badminton, softball, ping pong, and archery. A W. R. A. Council was set up for general supervisory purposes. The council mem­bers were the three club officers: Juanita Lane, president; Frankie Elmore, vice­president, and Mary Margaret Pace, sec­retary-treasurer, and a manager for each dormitory team. Polly Perry was elected manager for Nelson Hall; Pearl Philyaw, Jackson; Frankie Elmore, Cara­way, and Pauline Peace, manager for the Town team.

As part of the program to encourage greater interest in athletics, "Play Pe­riods" were arranged during the week­end for students. At these periods the women's physical education office was kept open for the use of students who wished to check out equipment for bas­ketball, softball, archery, badminton, croquet, bowling, tennis, volleyball, darts, softball, aerial darts, and other games. Also, a well-rounded program of physical education classes was arranged to include individual and team sports,

way.

Following the volleyball tournament ari

elimination tourney was played off in bas­

ketball. Nelson defeated Jackson twice td

play for the championship. Although in the

first game Nelson's lead was threatened

only occasionally, Jackson rallied in the

second game to put up a stiff battle before

being defeated. The Town girls defeated

Caraway in a close game. The Carawa}

basketballers included Frankie Elmore,

ORR OW

Since the founding of the Lion Oil Refining Company twenty-five years

ago, it has been the constant policy of the Company to help build

Arkansas by processing petroleum resources of the state into quality

products.

This policy has proved sound. Lion retail petroleum products are ac­

cepted by the motoring public throughout Arkansas, Tennessee, Mis­

s1ss1pp1 and northwest Alabama, while Lion's wholesale market takes in

almost the entire nation.

In the future as in the past, the Lion Oil Refining Company will continue

to help build a progressive Arkansas so that you-the citizens of

tomorrow-will find greater opportunities for advancement.

Miss Couch might describe a money-lender as follows:

" He serves you in the present tense, lends in the conditional mood, keeps you in the subjective, and ruins you in the future."

f f f

MONEY If you save all you earn, you're a miser. If you spend all you earn, you're a fool. If you lose it, you're out. If you find it, you're in. If you owe it, they're always after you. If you lend it, you're always after them. It's the cause of evil. It's the cause of good. It's the cause of happiness. It's the cause of sorrow. If the government makes it, it's all right. If you make it, it' s all wrong. As a rule, it's hard to get. But it's pretty soft when you get it. It talks! To some it says, " I've come to stay." To others it whispers, "Good-bye." Some people get it at a bank. Others go to jail for it. The Mint makes it first-It' s up to you to make it last.
