Take A Second Look! During the summer you may

rhave traveled to cities in the nat1ion and noted with amaze­ment the tremendous amount of new. construct ion and land de­velopment as compared to Shreveport. Before you decide that Shreveport is not really "A City on the Grow," let's ex­amine some of the city'·s plans for the futt.J.re. In all fairness, you should at least become aware of the following mea­sures before dra-wing a con­clusion.

T•he Industrial Relations De- · part.ment of th:e Cha-mber of Commerce has been most active in securing industry for the city . These indust-ries, such as Ba ffi eld Industr ies, Ford Motor Company, AMF Beaird, and Western Elect.ric are significant in that they provide b ig payrolls and employ thousands of local residents. To meet t.he ever·in­creasing dema-nds for s(<.illed .....Crkers, a trade school is un­der consideration.

The Shape of Things To Come

"Nothing can change the shape of things to come" go the words to the song from "Wild in the Streets." How much truth really lies in these words? Is mankind doomed to svMer at the hands of fate, u:1~ble to set goals and achieve ~hem t-hrough labor instead of luck? Or is Lad y Luck the almighty ·ruler of all men, dictating the sequence of events that comprise thejr· lives?

Many men spend · their entire exis·tences searching for the cor­rect theories concerning life in order to save the world, but they never find t.he all'Swers, for each man must discover t•he tru·ths for himself. Thus, the. only road to success ·is e a c h· man's personal search, investi­gat ion, and discovery.

Foreca5ters predict that the hi.Jiman race will destroy itsel.f unless it takes quick action to establ ish communK:ation a n d· cooperation between men of d itferent nations. T·herefore, it is apparen-tly up to this gener­ation to preserve the world for

those who are to follow -. T h e high school students of today bear the burden of ~he preserv­ation of mankind. T-hey cannot wa it for fate to c h a r >t their course . Now is the lime· to act! Th is generation has an obliga­tion to prevent the ominous forecast from being corre-ct, to not only after the course of Fate, bur to guide the w or I d itself.

Fate is the hand of humanity, not of some r.uliing force, and so its course will 'be dete,mined by the "NOW" generation. It is t •h e responsibility of today's high school students to establish new communication and cooper­ation between men of d ~Merent races, colors, creeds, a n d na­tional-ities in order to se-cure la sting peace in this world .

Can anything change the SHrAP'E OF T1HINGS TO COME?

The Nerve of Some People

llf urba.n renewal is favored by the local taxpayers in an up­comiing election, then downtowp Shreveport w ill change consid. erably in appearance. Old dilap­idated · buildings w.ill be replac­ed with modern structures. Not onl.y will hotels and motels be in abundance, but also a great­er variety of stores, possibly in.

Tlie city has recent~y acquir, ed prb-perty along the Red River to be developed for the benefit­of area citizens. Supplementing the Civic Theatre and Conven­•tion Hall will be botanical gar­dens and multi-storied apart­ment houses . Also included in the plans are recrea-tional fadli­ties and a parkway. Wa,ter trans­po,tation along the ri·ver will be encouraged when it is dredged, and among the benefits will be cheaper shfpping ra-tes for local businesses. Thus, Shreveport en­ters into competition with other. ports across the nat.ion.

Where the Akchin Is ... •11r IS pretty easy for teachers to stand up and hand out lec­tures on cheating - too easy. They are not swea-ting out that all important grade on the next report card . Worrying about par­ents reactions and college boards are the farthest thiings from teacher's minds. T.hey were not busy nights wirn clubs and dates - coming in a little too late to do ._mvch studying. Of course, they could probobly care less 1ihat a student will be dropped from the team if his grades go any lower. How sim­ple it is for them to talk about our che~at-ing, when WE ha.ve. all the pressures.

Rule of the Party

It is a worlti of the .future a socie~y founded on hatred an age of self-deception, perpe­tual war and mass ignoraoce, ruled by the ultimate tota.litar­ian regrme of Big Brother and the members of h is Inner Party. Th is is the world George Or­well depicts for us in his novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four.

The story takes :place on the continent of North Aomer.ica known in that year as Oceania, one of the three powers that control the world, . The people live in rotting, 19th century houses watched over by a tele­s.creen which observes every movement, hears every word, diy,ines one's thoughts, and feeds a constant stream of prop­aganda to a physically and emo­tionalhy sta.nving pdpulation.

The Party, whose only pur­pose is more power, - has suc­ceeded in controlling the past. It has destroyed all records and a-ltered the past to fit its own needs. Thus, in the ir irrsanity , the memlbers of the Party have c~eated a society in wh ich the people know nothing of what caome before them - in which people existed, content because they have never known any­thing better.

George Orwell has built up a horri-fying picture which is all the more terrible because it is all too possible . He opens the mind so that one can clea-rly see the warning he conveys to the whole of the Western World . Nineteen Eighty-Four staggers the imagination and of,f.ers its readers something that they w ill never forget ..

In keeping ab;-.east of the times, the plans for air travel in­clude a new ainport to be built on the same site as the present structure, which will be co(')vert-

Sophomore ... Left Out? Dear Sophomore,

Right now you are probably feel ing somewhat left out and discouraged because you have. 'been called a "stupid sopho­·more" so many trmes. Don't worry about it! It doesn't mat­ter if you walk around tohe third floor five times looking for the lib rary . I bet no one even not­ked when you threw away your plate and pu~ your napkin and m ,i I k carton on the revolving belt.

The thing that does count !~ that you are part of our school. You have good class leaders; you're well- rapresented, pLus there are twenty more sopho­mores this year than there were last. You're larger in number, so why not be better?

Many of yo ur friends are .a little disappointed with their. first few weekS of S'Chool. Their hopes and antidipations h ad builil up so much that there was. a real letdown when ~hey f o u n d out Captain Shreve would not be the answer to all the.ir visions, social as well as educa tiona I. Perhaps y o u r dreams were deflated.

Captain Shreve is a typical high school composed pf 'typi· cal students, with threet .ex.,cep­tions. We h a v e great SIChool· spirit and a fine faculty, along wi1h an excellent student body - which really makes a good· school the best ..

Next time we have a pep rally and the cheerleaders ask for ~he sophomore bCJttle cry, stand up and be heard. After all, you are the seniors of '71.

Young GOP's Elect Officers The young ReplJiblicans held

the ir first organizational meet­ing Wednesday, September 11, at the res idence of Diane Fer­guson. On the agenda was the election of this year's oMicers, who are the fol.lowing: Dia ne Fe rguson, pres ident; Tim Aben­droth ,vice president; Mona Youngblood , treasurer, and Ub­by McCalla, secretary.

The teenage Republ.icans will

At the meeting slides were shown by Tim Abendroth, show­ing everything from balloon, popping to the acceptance. speeches of the di~ferent nom-. inees.

By DON AKCHIN Note: A I r the situations

written about in this colum'n actually took place. Only the names have been changed to keep everybody wondering. IBotoh this year and last yea-r

l'•ve overheard some classic 'omments, and I think the Nm e nas. come to recognize and en)· <;ourage one of 11he- least 111ppre­ciated of art fonms, the wise­crack. So here to take their places, on the same shelf as the OSICar, .the Bmmie, tfhe Granny, and the Alfie, are the Akkie awards:

BeSII Insult Award. Winner: Jo~ Carte-r. Dur ing an informal tain police suspect confessed to speech, Joe stated that a cer­a crime be<ause he had only a J.O.. I. Q. T<he minute Joe fin­ished an arrogant heckler stood up and c-hallenged, "I didn't know anyone who had a 30 I. Q. could talk!" Joe snapped back, "You're doing it."

Outstanding Self-lncruminat-ing Remar·k. Award Winner: Rdbert Charles . Robert is a huge, slow fellow . He walked into Eng•lish class holding up a b o o k and asked the teacher, "Aren't we gonna read outa this P<>ok today?" "No, Robert," she replied. "I told you, not until Friday." Rdbert stood nhere for almost a minute with his jaw hanging out, think·ing . Finall.y, he said, "You mean I stole this from that lit.tle punk for noth­Ing?"

Best Unrehearsed Witty in Classroom Situahion. W1inner: Dave Cooper. The Engl is•h teach­er was saying, "In her later ltfe Emily Dickinson became ob­sessed with death . She bel ieved that death would be l·ike falling down a deep p ~t, like falling through a trap door."

"How did she die?" a girl I!Sked.

"flushed down the drain!" Dave replied .

Best Pun Award . Winner: Gr.eg Taylor. A guy walked into sfudy hall and infonmed us that a beal'tiful blonde was in the libr-ary. ~mmed·iately, one of the guys got up and asked for a libra-ry pass to check out a book.

Best Bluff Award . Winner: Ru!.Sell "Fox" Mills. Russell be­gan his first day of follow ing his s.chedule in the g y.m, but when he realized that his first period was in the dass of a coach notorious for weight-lift­ing and running, he got a little nervous. "Coach, there must be zome mistake," he said. " I think I'm supposed .to get a trans­fer." "There's no mistake, son," the coach sa id with a 9mile. Russell shuddered . But two days later he got his trBn&fer to oa di·Merent period gym and a dif­ferent coach. (They don't c a II him "Fox" for nothing .) The of­fice now has a record of the fad that Russ.ell has "severe asth~tic condition in morning onl.y.

Teachers just do not realize that certain students are smarter than others nnd for some, cheat­ing is the only way ou-t. Oh sure, they say, " I know you can get that 'A' if you work .ha.rder," but no one has tohe amount of time they demand. An'f'N'Cly, it 'is our lives and mdrals, not theirs.

(Editor's comment: We have rarely seen such a fine ex­ample of a one-sided argu· ment. It supported such out­standing characteristics as laziness and irresponsbiility, but ma.st impressive was its total lack of right and wrong.)

Personalities Journey Into· the New Year

;rhe 6NT5RPRISE editor ial s~aff proudly presents its September personal ities, D a n Goodwin,

• Debbie Ladymon and ScoM Pen­der, who were chosen because they t.ypi,fy g o o d citiienS!h ip. Th is· is a new column which will appear in every issue during the 1968-69 school year.

Li~es Firecrackers and Rockets BrOIWn- haired Dan Goodw,in

is our sophomore personali~y. At Youree Drive Junior Higth, Da!1 served as Chaplain of the Stu­dent Coui')Cil. He played line­backer and guard on the school's foo1fball teaom a n d is now on Captain Shreve's "B" team.

One of t.he main. reasons Dan likes Captain. Shreve is because it's •air-conditioned. "It's differ­em because it's round," Dan says with a smile, "and it has so m'a.ny diiiferen't poSislbi.lities for all types of people." He al.so remarked that he liked working with the coaches.

tDan says he likes Captain Shreve as it is, but he would add Russian an.d Ge~man to OU'I'

curriculum if he could cha.nge an'{thing.

Though a little embarra'Ssed to admit it, Dan says ,t,hat his main holbby is making firecrack­er·s and rockets. He likes· any fbrm of chemist.ry a11d enjoys horseback riding.

Ou1r sophomore personali1y tmveled this summer with New York, Pensacola, Florida, and Baton Rouge on his agenda.

Oan wis~es he could be a little kid again because "it would he fun living in a world that was bu ill for adults." He dis­likes noise and going to sleep wifh the radio on. He likes ice tea and going to summer school in Lake Charles.

Oan is an. al~laround, likab.le person, wiho is pleasing to talk, to a.nd has a good many friends . When he graduates from Cap­tah1< Shreve, he plans to attend Massachusetts Institute of 1ech­nology.

If you e v e ·• ~.::e a blonde, blue-eyed girl bounci111g down the hall, all smiles·, it's probably our junior personality, Delbbie Ladymon.

Cftocolate Chip Cookies For Breakfast?

Del:::lbie is an active member of the French and Latin Clubs, ,

the Footba.ll Ad Staff, the Gym­nastic Team and she's an -En, sign of Pep Squad.

1ihere's nothin.g tha·t De'bbie. would change about Cap~air. · ShretVe . "I I ike it just the wary · it· is," she remarks, "everylbody's· friends and just about everyone knows everyone else.'' '

Oelbbie loves mountains, -trav­eling, and meeting people.. Her one wish is to go to Europe ber cause the people are so d~ifer­ent and she wants to f<incl' out what fhey think about us.

Can you ~magine eating choc­olate chip cookies for break­fast? DeCibie hesftantly recal•ls an episode at ca,mp, "when we. took an ' overnight ·horseback· ride and it rained and rained' and rained. We had 400 choco.. late ohip cookies for breakfast!''

Deibbie, an extra-friendly and outgoing pe.rson, likes Rep Squad beilter than any1ihing els~ at school and S:he strongly dis-o tikes crude people and people who fhink themsoelves superiof to others.

·After leaving Captain Shreve, she is looking forward to fur­thering :her education at L. S. U. in Baton Rouge. Spends Time In The Air

Scont Pender, our senior per. sonafity, spends much of his time in the air, as ihe received hus flying license for his 17th bir:thday.

'Sco1t is a hard worker f o r LOG busines·s staiif and' was a Pelican Slate alternate.

When asked what he ~hought of Captain Shreve he stated, "I have e n j o y e d the year here, and ft held a lot of good memories for me."

Some of Scott's 'hobbies are water ski'ing, flying lhis fa~her's plane, pla.ying .the guillar and sailing . The la.tter didn't lhold .too much enjoyment for him this summer because in one race he capsized and his glasses, a pa ir of s.hoes, and his senior r i n g were lost.

T-hough a little shy, until you get to know h~m, Scott is a good studen·t and a fine person to be friends with. He pl·ans to go into medlicine and hopes to a.ttend l. s. u.

To Have A 30c Coke Plarlez-vous frai')Ca is? Two

Capt a in Shreve students, Anne Williams and Renee Lieber, ~pent their svmmer in Europe primar­ily to learn French.

Anne and. Renee went to Grenoble in southem France and spent four weeks a.t Do­main Uni.versita•ire, taking two hours Olf Frenc'h every day. . · Grendble, the home of the

1967-68 Olympics, is a beauti­ful ci~y surrounded by .moun­~ins. "It wa.s as if we could reach out of our window and t,out:h o•ne," Renee recalled, ~ighing.

Mter their two hol)rS of French, the girl'S were free t.o 90 shopping or sightseeiflg. "Bu-t," Anne remarked, "we spent half of our free a-fternoons in the bank cas'hbng more and more checks for spending money."

On weekends the group· of students took different s i d e trips. Anne and Renee reca lied one trip to ltaty where they· went into a restavran<t in wh ich there was no one who spoke English or !'trench, only Italian. Mter eating, they went .to the cashier and p a i d .her French money. The old fat Italian wom­an could do nothing but shake her finger ·a111d shou-t v.iolentty at them. "She got so mad, her face turned red, and she just kept rattling on in her heavy accent,"· laughed Anne. lihey finally had to go · to the bank a•nd have the'ir francs exchanged for !ires.

Another interesting •rip was to Ca mbridge Unfversity where tihey too:k a punt (canoe) ride down the cam (narrow water­way) behind the school.

They also went to the Riviera and found it to be just as most Americans picture it, a crowded beach full of girls in bikin'is and men · and women who dress on the beach in front of everyone. It , was her ethat they enjoyed thei·r frist typical Frenoh meal and had their first swrm in the MedMerranean.

!Paris was as beautiful a n d exciting as expected. T.hey visit­ed the Eit.fel Tower and the Lo.uvre, and both had portraits made . They found that the Par­isiem are off in a world of their own. One of Anne's fcworite pa&tJimes in Paris was eoting th~ famous Frenoh pancakes oand pastries.

One catastrophe of the trip was the bus ride from London to Dover. The bus broke down, "and we were without every­thi ng but clothes for three days," Renee said, shaking her head. "SR,me of the girls even washed their hai.r in resJtaurant.s r e s t rooms with soap," added Anne.

Also, by cus~om, the Frenoh always drink wine and they get ins·ulted if you ask for water instead of wine with ·a meail . That brought to mind another thought f.rom both girls.

Co.kes were 30c apiece! 1Anne and Renee brought back

many happy memor ies and sou­venirs, incl.uding clothes from Carn2by Street and Paris, Swiss clo:ks, and Parisien perfume. They wish to re~ate some vital informa.tion to all Qirls w ~ o plan to go to F:rance. "M-ench bovs exiOect a ll American. girls to have long blonde ha•ir, to be tall and slim, and to have long te.etlh !"

Unsung Hero One of the hardest working,

but leag,t pvblicized football. players, is the defensive line­man . He ge,ts no headl•ines, no touchdowns, no glory, but he has as much p-ride as any othe.r player . He has pride in himself hi-s team, and his school,

Our 51ports personality of this issue is defensive lineman Doug Smith. Doug st.ands six feet one, 185 pounds, and is a tackle on the Gil'tor defensive unit. Last year, his firS>t year playing foot­ball, he was an offensive end. The change ~his year was not easy for Dovg, but, 1.mder the gentle guidance o'f Coach Ta.lton, he has developed into an O!Jt-: standing player. Doug dr¢-'«. special attention aoo pra.ise frqn;,\ Coac'h Hedges for his per.fortr(l­ance in the West Monroe ga-me, where he recovered a flJirrlble and made nlJimerous tack·les. Ac­cording to Coach Hedges, "Doug has made the chai)Qe from of­fense tci defense very well. He is standing up well under 11he pressure."

When he is not p\ayfing foot­ball, Doug enjoys lhunfoing, fisb· ing, and most other outdoor g,ports He is also a metmlber of the FeiiOW'3hip of Christi'an Ath­letes and ran for senio.r class. treasurer last year.
