Westark-Vniqtie and Friendly

Here's Looking At You, We stark.

Westark Community College, a unique and friendly insti-tution large enough to provide a comprehensive curriculumto meet the needs, interests, objectives and capabilities ofIts area residents; yet small enough to radiate an atmosphereof student concern, friendliness, and loyalty.

It's a college that has grown from a modest, temporary,post high school facility to a new, exciting, and evergrowing permanent campus.

The progress and excellence in recent years of Westark hasbeen due to its fine staff of highly capable, concerned, anddedicated individuals who believe in the institutional andphilosophical program reflected by the college.

Westark ranks as the largest community college in the stateof Arkansas, and places fifth largest among all the collegesand universities in the state.

Arkansas and the surrounding area can be very proud ofWestark, one of the leading community colleges in thenation.

The Spirit of Bogartlitgers on campusThe "Here's Looking at you" theme forthe '78 NUMA came about as a result ofthe October 7 Dinner Theatre appearanceof Robert Sacchi performing his "Bogey'sBack " one man show.

His performance so captured the essenceof Humphrey Bogart and the imagin-ation of the audience that it appearedBogey was indeed reincarnated andstrolling the Westark campus for thatday.

Our memories of Bogey, stimulateby Sacchi's performance, left tImage of Bogart on campus and fspirit remained to observe us.

We know what Bogart was like, but <doesn't know about us.

The J970's are unfamiliar to him aihis spirit lurked through our halls ttacademic year to give him a chancelook at life in these times as comparto his.

Here's looking at you, Westark, throu^the eyes of Humphrey Bogart.

At times, if one visited the Presidenoffice while he was away the spiritBogey could be seen filling his chao verseeing the campus and its activity

The President may not always be <campus, but Bogart is.

Here's looking at the highlights of themany student activities available toWestark which play such an importantrole in making the campus atmosphereas fulfilling as it is.

The start of fall classes in August isushered in by the setting up of a stu-dent booth in front of the Union.

The booth is an anchoring point wherestudents can go to receive answers toall those questions that come upduring the first few days.

The beginning of a new school yearalways means an icebreaker dance, orin today's lingo, a disco.

September greeted Westark with anew student feature, the "nooner."

Special types of entertainment arepresented in the union during the lunchhour to help students (faculty andadministration, too) relax.

The first nooner was a concert of blue-grass music by Silverhawk.

The Student Activities Council par-ticipated in a raft race representingthe school in a United Fund function.

In reference to their finish in the race,let's just say they worked hard andhad fun.

October brought lots of talent to campus

October brought the comedy team, Edmonds and Curly,to Westark for a nooner.

Their college age humor met with the approval of theoverflowing union crowd.

Their two hour show was a fast paced laugh a minuteaffair.

A former Westark student, Jerry Sallee, gave a Kuk-SoolWon Karate demonstration in a nooner performance.

It caught the eye of the viewers as intensely as it did theeye of the camera.

Student Unionis always alivewith action

A real treat for Westark and the com-munity, and the event which triggeredthe theme for this book, came in theform of a Dinner Theatre performanceby actor Robert Sacchi in "Bogey'sBack."

Sacchi completely captivated theaudience with his remarkable presen-tation of Humphrey Bogart.

The show was sold out and received atremendous reaction from the audi-ence.

The steak wasn 't bad either.

November offered new "Cafe Plus" and...

November came and brought with it a new feature to thecampus.

Cafe Plus, a coffeehouse, was premiered by the appearanceof popular singer John Hiatt.

The evening featured John, his music, coffee, popcorn,and other assorted ingredients of the coffeehouse atmos-phere.

Popular during the late '50's and early '60's, the coffee-house concept is coming back strong on the college cam-pus.

A traveling Russian folk ensemble, Tziganka, visited West-ark and captivated the union with a program of Russiansong and dance.

The nooner show gave us the opportunity to see and hearand learn about a culture and way of life quite differentfrom what we are used to here in the United States andArkansas.

Return trip to HJCAAnational tournament

highlights recordbreaking year at WCC

Here's look in' at the basketball program at Westark, awinner and still champ.

The Lions gained their second consecutive berth in theNJCAA national basketball tournament by doing whatthey do often, winning the Ozark Conference title andsweeping through the Region II tournament.

They won their fourth consecutive Ozark crown, secondconsecutive Region II crown, and shared a second Bi-Stateconference title.

At the NJCAA tournament, the Lions opened with a 47-40victory over Baltimore Community College.

Baltimore entered the tourney with a lofty seventh rankingin the national polls.

The Lions took care of them.

In their second game, the Lions lost a tough match toThree Rivers, Mo., 79-74.

Three Rivers eventually finished third in the tournament.

Finally, after leading all the way, the Lions dropped aheartbreaker to Casper, Wyoming, 76-75.

Casper went on to finish fifth.

Lions sweep to second consecutive Region II title It was quite a thrill to sit home and watch the Westark basketball Lions on television representing the school at the national tournament.

In commenting about the return trip^ Assistant Coach Jim Wyatt said: '1 was very pleased with how we represented the school . . . when you get on the level that we are on^ everyone is a winner."

The Lions earned their way to Hutchinson, Kansas, by sweeping old nemesis Oklahoma City Southwest two straight games in the Region 11 finals.

Taking the opener, 76-74, at home, the Lions traveled to Oklahoma City (where they had never won before) and promptly clobbered OCSW, 90-76.

The Lions had previously defeated ASU-Beebe, 87-58, and Phillips County Community College, 80-70, in Regional action.

Entering postseason play with a 21-8 regular season record, the Lions were 25-8 as they headed to Kansas.

Getting to 21-8 was no cakewalk, however, for the Lions.

At times, it looked like a conference crown was not going to be won by Westark this season.

Playing only two games at home during the fall semester, the Lions struggled to a mediocre 9-5 record at the holiday break.

Included in that was a disappointing 80-75 opening game defeat at home to Connors, the team the Lions had beaten the year before to get to go to Hutchinson for the first time.

Following the new year, however, the Lions roared to a 17-3 record which included a nine game winning streak at one point.

Add that up and it comes to 25-8.

It was a season of records, and honors, and awards for the basketball program.

Dell Bray, Arthur Banks, Elton White, Warren Patten, and John Stewart were all named to the AH-Ozark Conference team.

Arthur Banks and Dell Bray were named to the AH-Region 11 team.

Arthur Banks, Elton White, and Dell Bray were named to the All-Bi-State team.

Arthur Banks was invited to play in the East I West All-Star game in San Antonio, Texas.

Even the coach got in on the act.

Head Coach Gayle Kaundart, in only four seasons, won his 100th victory as the mentor of the Lions.

He stands 107-29 overall, and that averages out to better than a 26-7 seasonal record average.

He also was presented with the pres-tigious Governor's Award, one of the highest awards given by the state for excellence in athletic achievements and community service.

Lady Lions striate to

two victories In their second year of existence, the Lady Lions didn't improve upon their first year record of 2-10.

In fact, they finished with the same slate.

They started the season slow and never really got it going in high gear.

Their coach, Marl-Ann Ray, gave birth to twins midway through the season and that didn 't help.

Because of her recent additions. Coach Ray resigned at the end of the season and the ladies will miss her.

A new coach, new enthusiasm, and another year's experience make the Lady Lions look forward to their new upcoming season.

Here s look in' at you, ladies.

Baseball L ions win Ozark title Thanks to a 10-game winning streak during the second half of the seasdn, the baseball Lions, who won 13 of their last 16 games, finished regular season play with a 20-14 record.

They entered the post-season regional tournament on a hot streak with credentials of being the Ozark Confer-ence champions and second place finishers in the Bi-State league.

The season, however, started slow for the Lions as bad weather cancelled their early spring games.

But, as the play ended, the Lions had hustled to another winning season and had, in the process, handed Coach Bill Crowder his 400th Westark victory in only thirteen years at the helm.

Eventually, the Lions finished third in the regional tournament thanks to an impressive 5-1 showing.

They opened by defeating Connors State College, 8-3, then outslugged Eastern State, 14-10.

Their only defeat, which dropped them out of the winners bracket, was a 9-1 loss to tourney favorite Seminole.

The Lions came back, however, and landed the third place finish by defeating Murray State, 8-4, Northark, 3-1, and Oscar Rose, 5-3.

Add it all up and here's looking at a 24-16 overall record.
