School gets attendance recognition A recent look into attendance

at Shreve shows that not only the student body maintains a high attendance rate topping 94 percent, but the faculty as well.

Average student attendance is computed at four-week inter­vals by the Caddo Parish School Board. In the past four intervals, the last ending on Dec. 16, Shreve's attendance rate has been 97.4 percent , 95 .4 percent , 95 .5 percent and 94.9 percent. Though Shreve dropped below 95 percent in the last period ,

it had the highest attendance rate compared with the other eight high schools in Caddo Parish for that interval. Shreve has been among the top four of the eight schools in each interval.

At a recent meeting , Princi­pal Sandra McCalla and other Caddo parish school principals were asked to speak with their faculties concerning the import­ance of attende,nce. Upon checking the records of Shreve 's faculty, Tommy Powell, assist-

ant principal found that they have an average attendance rate of 98 percent. McCalla feels this is partly due to the "high ex­pectancy teachers have of students. They (the teachers) serve as role models, " she added .

McCalla attributes the high attendance rate among students to Lee Baker who is in charge of attendance. Each day Baker makes contact with the parents of absent students .

-Mini-poll------------.

Girls get set for 'Sadie Hawkins' dance (Editor's note- 162 Shreve students responded to the mini­poll. This month' we look at the armed forces in Lebanon).

1. Should the armed forces of the U .S. be pulled out of This year Sadie Hawkins Dance, the annual dance where the "girls ask the boys," will be on Friday, Feb. 24 in Shreve's gymnasium from 8-12 p.m.

Virgil Lacey will provide the entertainment throughout the evening. Sadie Hawkins, which originated from the comic strip ~ Li ' l Abner," was created by

Alfred Gerald Caplin, who is popularly known as AI Capp.

During 1938, in his comic strip "Li'l Abner , " he introduced the Sadie Hawkins Day as an oc­casion on which the "maidens" and "spinsters" of the mythical town Dogpatch could lawfully

School team hits smoking If Shreve's SAPE team has its

way , teachers will be standing in the bathrooms during each five minute break between classes to cut down on smoking at school.

The proposal is one of a week­long drug abuse seminar that took place in Colorado during November . Three of Shreve 's SAPE members, Kathy Hamil­ton, Ruby Powell and Glenda Johnson, chairman of Shreve's team, met with other SAPE members from Caddo Parish and various states to discuss sub­stance abuse and what can be done about it. The representa­tives had to come up with a problem at their school which they felt was related to drug abuse. Hamilton , · Powell and

4 Johnston chose smoking to center in on at Shreve.

"The proposal required a

commitment from the staff' n said Johnston. When the bell rings to dismiss class, teachers who have their planning period next hour will leave their room immediate­ly and go to the bathroom assigned them. "We want to make kids aware, " said John­ston, "we won ' t have teachers in there all of a sudden ."

As of now, students caught smoking in the regular bathroom receive a three-day suspension while students caught smoking in the honor bathrooms receive a more severe punishment. According to Tommy Powell, assistant principal and SAPE team member , if the new pro­posal is enforced, it should cut down on smoking in the bath­rooms a good deal .

The SAPE team is also' plan­ning to organize an anti-smoking day during the Spring.

race . If a male was caught, he was obligated to "marry up" with the female who skillfully caught him. The original Sadie Hawkins day was on Nov. 9, but nowadays, Sadie Hawkins is celebrated on numerous different days. Not only did the date change, but nowadays, the captured male is simply the temporary property of his captor.

Program may help m,any SAPE is a term Shreve stu­

dents wi.ll be hearing more and more often as the year goes on .

It stands for Substance Abuse Prevention Education and is used in reference to the drug teams established in each of the Gaddo Parish schools and to the various programs they organize.

Each year, since the SAPE program began two years ago, four people, an administrator, a counselor, a social studies teacher and a science teacher, have been chosen to serve as the SAPE team from their school. This year, Tommy Powell, Ruby Powell, Glenda Johnston and Kathy Hamilton were chosen by Pr incipal Sandra McCalla to serve as Shreve 's SAPE team.

The purpose of a SAPE team is to help students who are

abusing drugs. One program handled by these teams and set up to help subst;:tnce abusers in the Drug Intervention Program used in many schools including Shreve.

Students or teachers who suspect someone as a substance abuser can contact one of the SAPE team members. If the team finds the suspicion to be true, they will talk with~ the stu­dent about his problem and may set up a meeting with his parents.

With the aid of librarian Zo~ Ramsey, Shreve's SAPE team is making video tapes on sub­stance abuse which can be shown in the classrooms. "We want to try to make the students aware that there are other alterna­tives," said Johnston, referring to the use of drugs.

·1984--fantasy o.r realityt In George Orwell 's 1984, the future is drawn to be a

living nightmare. Thought police keep tabs on everyone and society is made to bel ieve that two plus two equals fi ve. " Freedom is slavery " is a national party slogan . Big Brother watches over all.

As we enter the modern age of 1984, and look back on the novel written in 1948, the obvious question arises -was Orwell right? The answer is yes and no .

In Communist countries today , the government con­trols what their citizens see , read and hear. Soviet citizens rarely know of current world events until the government is ready to tell them . History books , used by the school children, show modern day America with pictures of the breadlines of the 1930's. Deceiving information is the rule- not the exception.

Recent American history also shows times when authori­ties tried to go too far . Senator Joe McCarthy, in the mid 1950's, tried to take America back to the days of guilty until proven innocent and guilt by association. The 1960's brought us Robert Kennedy's misuse of the justice depart­ment. And who can forget Richard M. Nixon in the 1970's?

But as our 208 year history has consistently shown , America has responded in favorable ways to these criminal acts against her . Fortunately, the people of America still believe in truth and justice.

The modern day link to the world shown in 1984 is the computer. It is estimated that Uncle Sam maintains more than four billion files on individuals through 7,000 different record systems. Our lives are not as private as we think .

As we gaze towards the future , we think of optimism, achievement , and freedom - but not such Orwellian terms as newspeak and double think. Although 1984 does not depict our modern society today , it must be kept around in order to remind ours£1ves how we never want our society to become.

Jackson meets the media With the 1984 Presidential

election drawing near, the general public becomes more and more aware of their choices of candidates and the candi­dates ' qualifications . This awareness and realization is due primarily to the mass media . The various news broadcasts across the country dig deeper into the I ives of each candidate every day . But some candidates receive more media coverage than others . Ronald Reagan, of course , is big in the public eye because of his current Presi­dential position , and retired astronaut John Glenn 's media coverage seems to be slowly increasing . But the real "media man " in the 1984 Presidential election is the Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Jackson , the only black can­didate, possesses many traits that automatically draw the media to him. First of all, he is a nationally known religious speaker , noted for his persuasive

nature and effect on the people to whom he speaks . The second trait referred to is the fact that he is a definite racial minority and could possibly (will probably) carry the black vote in the country - the group that Reagan primarily carried in the last Presidential election . The third and most recent event that drew media attention to Jackson is the fact that he, against the will of President Reagan , flew to Syria to conduct negotiations to release American pilot Robert Goodman who was being held "prisoner". The media , natural­ly , is attracted to any national figure, especially if he is a noted speaker and of the black m i­nority, and even more so during an election . But the media had a "hey day " with the fact that Jackson went against the Presi­dent's wishes .

The real clincher, however, came when Jackson was able to actually have Goodman released from Syrian control .

THE ENTERPRISE

And you think you 've got problems

February 14, 1984

Grammar school valentines hassle Remember back in good old

grammar school when everything was so simple and easy-going . . . no research papers or final exams and, above all, tardy policies? Life was wonder­ful and fun-filled , except for the couple of weeks before Valen­tine 's Day.

I recall one year in particular when those pre-Valentine's Day weeks were especially nerve­racking. We were at that tender age when all boys had "germs" and "cooties" (unless one had carried your books home . . . then he was immediately trans­formed into a squeaky clean Greek god!). Th is was the age when you were considered "head over heels in like" with a boy if you received anything larger than a 2x3 Valentine card . A box of candy meant a definite engagement (skip the diamond, candy will do!) , and flowers predicted a wedding in twenty years (to the day) .

But the real clincher that year was the poetic genious who must have spent weeks in preparation for that special day . Albert (name changed to pro­tect the filthy) was the sloppiest, clumsiest, most dim-witted, least clever, most likely to become a garbage dump monitor kid anyone could ever imagine.

And another thing ...

'by Elizabeth Harrison

A black cloud followed Albert and he always left behind him a trail of destruction . He used only leaky pens, causing him to resemble a piece a smudged newspaper print by the end of the day , and he constantly gnawed on a little green eraser which turned his teeth a lovely shade of chartreuse. Albert was the typical " Messy Marvin" of the fourth grade class.

This particular year, however, Albert gave the entire class a Valentine's Day shock. After we had all filed into the classroom , put down our Janet and Mark level four readers and sat in our places with bright, shiny faces (except Albert with the ink smears and green teeth), Mrs. White (another name changed, this time to protect the obese) announced that it was time to deliver Valentines.

We had spent the past week decorating little brown bags for the occasion. Some of the boys had drawn tigers, bicycles, and baseballs. Most of the girls drew

flowers and kittens. Albert drew a trash can and a half-eaten cheese sandwich. Nevertheless , we were soon turned loose to distribute our Valentine cards. When we had completed this long awaited task, we each took our own bag and anxiously tore into it. The first valentine I opened was from Mary Jones. It read: "Sorry I tied your eat's tail in a knot yesterday. Love, • Mary." The second was from Tommy Wilson and it said, "Someday I'd like to play dot­to-dot with your freckles ." Another winner . The th ird valen­tine was from none other than Albert. I could tell before I opened the envelope . . . ink spots. But the contents of that valentine have remained en­graved on my mind since the fourth grade. Albert's valentine read :

"Roses are ugly and Cotton grows in the south, If you ask me nicely I 'II never put another eraser

in my mouth." Well, I , being the 9-year-old

literature buff that I was, changed my entire attitude about Albert. That day, "Albert the zero" turned into "Albert Sand­burg" or "Albert Wadsworth Longfellow • and he was from then on regarded as Poet Lau­reate of the 4th grade.

All-American hero now extinct Whatever happened to the all

American hero? Americans used to believe and

love all sorts of heroes, from the masculine type that wore blue leotards and red capes , to the feminine sort , who wore metal armbands and went around beat­ing up on the bad guys .

Heroes came from all walks of life, ranging from college students to millionaires , and dif­fered in abilities from super­powers to just plain old guts and determination.

Heroes could be might-men that could fly around the world in one second, or a real live person that a lot of people respected.

You don't find many of the old­style heroes anymore. There 's always some jerk who has to write a book saying , Superman 's gay, or Alex Haley is adopted , or Archie Bunker is a card carrying member of the Com­munist party . All the illusions are destroyed.

As always though, the un­daunted American people don ' t give up. If at first you don't succeed, try, try, again. There are a whole mess of places to find heroes. Sports for instance ... well .. . even though a lot

by Ross Smith

of them are addicted to cocaine, we can look up to those that aren ' t ... until they start asking people they don't know how to spell rei ief , or threaten to beat up on bugs with D•Con, or try and sell us tea.

We can look at our favorite politicians , and how they stand up to what is right, and what is . . . let's not look at our poli-ticians . •

Movies! They ' re a good place to lool<. (Superman goes to bed with Lois? He gets wasted?)

Let's look at musicians . . . (Hendricks 0 . D. 's? McCartney gets busted for possession?)

How about Hollywood!?! Lots of heroes there. (Belushi dies of overdose? Harrison Ford goes to court over alimony payments?)

The problem with today's

potential heroes, is that someone is always trying to make them into humans. Everybody knows that heroes and heroines aren't supposed to be like real people , with real problems and every­day human weaknesses . Heroes are supposed to be better than that. Maybe that's why someone created E.T. That individual probably didn ' t want someone to write a book or newspaper article on what a scummy neighborhood E.T.' s home was in, or how E.T. had a rotten childhood . After all, how many problems could an alien have , that Earthlings could relate to?

What this country needs is an irreproachable character of the · utmost moral fiber , someone who represents the American dream , someone who is handsome, and kind, and intelligent. If I wasn ' t ' so humble, I 'd volunteer , but alas, high school and journalism fill my schedule to a point where I wouldn ' t be able to give proper time and attention to my (undoubtedly) numerous ad­mirers. No, I had someone more like Sam Provinsa, or Monty Python, or Gomer Pyle, or . oh what the heck! I volunteer.

------------~------------~--~~------------~-------3-----· 'Cra(kdown' on smokers needed

Dear Editor, I think the teachers should

tighten down on smoking in the bathrooms . When a person walks into the bathroom he can hardly find his way around in there. On the lunch shifts it is the worst in the girl ' s batnroom. They go in there and smoke away wi thout getting caught, because there is always a man on duty. Something should be done about it.

Good paper Dear Editor,

I would like to congratulate you and the staff on the news­paper this year. I think you have done a nice job of select­ing the articles in your paper.

Letters to the Editor

Pictures Dear Editor ,

I would like to make a com­ment ·to the Yearbook Staff and to the principal and vice-prin­cipals of Captain Shreve High School. What I would like to say is that every year for who knows how many years, we've had a

homecoming queen and her court being featured in the yearbook. Well , I would like to say that we should also have the Band and ROTC as well as other clubs feature nomination toward these such things. I don't know about the band , but I do know that the ROTC program at Shreve has elections every year to determine the ROTC queen and her court. And I figure that if the ROTC goes through so much trouble to elect their young ladies why can't they be featured in the year­book . Personally, I think some­thing should be .done.

Signed , Mad!

Student says no more horoscopes for him There was a time when I

believed anything - Nixon was innocent, my dad was Santa Claus, they served caviar in the cafeteria - even horoscopes. But that came to an end the other day when my horoscope pre­diced "business investments would prosper." The next day, my IBM stock dropped 10 points.

I want revenge. ARIES (March 21-April 29) You are a fun-loving person who tends to get in everyone else 's way. People think you are pompous and obnoxious. Most Aries die before they graduate high s.chool. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -You are persistent and have a way of getting what you want.

Happy Valentine's Day to the one I love

and you know who you are.

BACKTALK:-----------.

Foriegn languages What are your feelings concerning the approval of

stricter graduation requirements for those students who will enter the ninth grade in the fall? (These include require­ments in Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Biology, and Chemistry for all students.)

Brian Williams, freshman "Less people will graduate, and the people that do

graduate will have a better education, same as the people who don't graduate , they will be more intelligent."

Lauren Hayes, junior " It will be harder to graduate but .at the same time, the

students will be getting a better education. Even though the curriculum will be harder, the student will learn more be­cause they may not have taken the course in the first place ."

Curt Brandao, sophomore "There will be more drop-outs, the kids won't be able to

handle it. The quality of the course won ' t be as good because the teachers will have to work slower ."

Chris Marrus, senior "The new curriculum will be harder on a lot of students ,

but it won't make that much of a difference."

Angela Hullaby, junior "They shouldn 't require these classes to graduate

because some students are not as knowledgeable in the higher maths and sciences ."

Yentl--stunning, successful The production of "period

films" as well as period theatre productions is quite difficult , as a general rule, to successfully direct, act , costume, and pro­duce. Much of this difficulty is due to the time period in which the story occurs. But Barbra Streisand, better known as "Funny Girl" or "Funny Lady" has brilliantly created , directed, acted and produced a new stun­ning and quite successful period film, Venti.

This long awaited Streisand picture basically deals with the true story of a young Jewish girl (Streisand) who learns from her father that knowledge is the dearest treasure one could have. After Yentl 's father dies, she decides to pursue the great dream that her father has so long impressed upon her - the dream of knowledge and further insight, but she must disguise herself as a young school boy to do so. Once well-disguised and safely away from her village, into a place of learning and schooling, Yentl disposes of her female name and becomes a "him," adopting the name "Anshel."

The remainder of the plot

by Elizabeth Harrison

centers around Yentl (Anshel) studying and learning quite rapidly, falling in love with a teacher who doesn ' t know that "he's" a "she," and eventually marrying another member of the female sex as a favor. Naturall y, humorous situations quickl y evolve between Venti and her new "wife" as Yentl desperately makes excuse after excuse not to have children or start a family right away!

But, on the whole, the acting and musical aspects of the film were dynamic, as well as the scenery. Filming the movie partially in Czechoslovakia was a wise move on the part of Streisand. The beautiful rolling hills and fields added a nice touch to what could have been a drab , dreary, dusty little village . Czechoslovakia also provided a more realistic effect for such a movie .

Fashion Wise

Latest style includes shirts with holes, bold prints WATCH OUT! The latest

craze in fashion includes every thing from t-shirts with holes in them to bold Japanese and Chinese prints .

These rather bizzare styles were started by the music star Def Leppard who first wore the shirt with the British Flag on it. Also, the group Saga began sporting the Chinese rising sun on their shirts. These styles were immediately picked up by de­voted fans. Such designers as Blow-Out , Va-Ho , Bev 's Threads , Plezure , Tokyo , Left Bank , Kudos , Chams and many others have answered the growing demand for these new designs . Not only do these new tops have flags and emblems on them , but they also bear Chinese or Japanese writing on them , it is difficult to tel l which . However, you may need to hire an interpreter to translate the

secret message on your shirt or you may get strange looks from any Orientals you may see . Not only do shirts come with Chinese logos on them , but now ties , vests and hats have them too. What will be next?

Another style that is popu­lar this year is a take-off of the flashdance style . T-shirts with holes in them have been filling the local stores. No, these shirts are not damaged merchandise , they are suppos.ed to be ripped! Of course the designers are charging a little more for the holes in their shirts , so it would be a lot less

expensive if you cut your own holes in an old shirt.

These new fashions are what is known as unisex or made for men and women . Unisex is another of the latest trends. These new fasions are not too girlistr or too masculine. Some­times people get confused or embarrassed when looking at these fashions because they might be found in the men's or women's department ; but rarely in both .

The latest t rend in accessory fash ions this season consists of several ropes of small colored beads twisted together to make one larger necklace.

These new necklaces are a sp in-off f rom the still popular add-a-beads chains . However, these ropes of beads are much more versatile than the add-a­beads because you are free to switch over and over again

creating new color combinat ions depending on your outfit for the day . These various ropes of beads are twisted and hooked rogether by a special clasp that is made speci f ically for this purpose .' Also , a clip-on earring could do the same job as the special clasp . However, if you decide on the cheaper earring clasp you must make sure you get the proper type that would be capable of holding the ends of the twisted necklaces together properly .

This new style in jewelry has several advantages over other types . Instead of having to wear th ree or four add-a-bead chains , you -can wear one chain of these new beads and sti II have the color variations . Also , these necklaces can combine in numerous variations for a large variety of colors that can be worn with almost any outfit.

fdward's Street Grocery offers a variety of food When most people hear

Edward's Street Grocery men­tioned , the first thing that enters their mind is a grocery store on Edward Street, or as the case with most high school students , an exciting place to go with their friends on Friday and Saturday nights .

The long bar that is practically the length of the restaurant itself and the T.V . placed high on the shelf at one end of the room , and the scattered LSU memorandums give Edward's Street the type of atmosphere that might be found in the typical Monday night football

hang-outs . Don ' t let the word "hang-out" fool you though . The high ceiling fans , pictures of old-Shreveport , salad-bar in a tub, and chalkboard menu , give the restaurant a casual but somewhat high-class atmos­phere .

Not only is the food unique, but so is the menu. It is written on a big black board, easily seen by the eye when walking in .

The roast beef po boy, loaded with cheese , tomatoes and let­tuce, ($3 .75) is served on a large bun with potato chips. If roast beef is not your style,

special talents and he really enjoys being with his students in a casual atmosphere , but even his "vacations " have ended up involving students at Shreve. "In the spring, we take Key Club canoeing on the Buffalo River , and last year we even tried a snow skiing trip to Colorado . They ran right over me snow skiing , but I'm an O.K. canoe­ist, " Bogan semi-pleasantly recalls with a roll of the eyes .

After twenty years of teach­ing , Bogan has established himself as a very involved and interested teacher , but with that reputation he has also been called "strongly opioniated " and even " prejudiced " . " I am only prejudiced when it comes to narrow minded people , " Bogan matter-of-factly states. "My biggest irritation is stu­dents who don ' t try to broaden their education , and students who don ' t strive to do their best. n

Because of his built-in instinct to do everything efficiently, Bogan has a difficult time accept­ing laziness. In fact, he simply won't stand for it. " I believe

Donald Duck

there is only one way to do a job , and that ' s the right way. It 's as easy to do the job right as it is to do it wrong," Bogan continues whole-heartedly . "Not everything has to be perfect, but in anything, it should be the best that you can do . I disagree with always looking for the easy, simple ways out. " And he sticks to his word .

During Bogan 's 17 years at Shreve, he has served as the Key Club sponsor , Student Council sponsor , and Debate Coach , not to mention teaching Speech. In fulfilling the duties of these jobs, Bogan has traveled all over Louisiana, Arkansas, and Colo­rado. He has visited numerous care centers such as nursing homes and Northwest State School and has been extremely active in the Poor Man's Supper for which he won the Brother­hood Educator of the Year Award in 1981 . "Sometimes I really miss

the debate . The traveling took away time with my family, but I miss the challenge," Bogan recalls , surve)' ing the debate trophies lining the walls of his room .

Bogan is opinionated Out of all of these organized

and hard-working traits of Bogan 's, the most unique is his ability to combine his opinionat­ed manner with extreme wit and dry humor . "I ' m very opinionat­ed and I believe what I believe, " states Bogan . " But people just have to accept that fact. " It's true , you either love him or hate him , and Bogan is aware of that. But his natural way of making people laugh outweighs any negative aspect. Just take one look at those laughing brown eyes and comical facial expressions , and listen to his "Mama 's Family " back country accent, and you can ' t help buf

smile from ear to ear yourself. When asked about his plans

for the future, Bogan simply sits back, rubs his chin and shrugs his shoulders . "I hope I'm close to retirement, but I'll just go back to work after that. Maybe real estate . I 'd really like to work for a major oil company in Public Relations. But I won ' t stop working ... I 'd starve to death!"

Reeder assists McKellar during break by Elizabeth Harrison Reporter

"Turn up the volume in your hair!"

These words come straight from the mouth of a co-worker and friend of Elizabeth "Tizzy" Reeder, Shreve Graduate, Sarah Lawrence Liberal Arts college student, and, to those who have recently seen her "in action", potenti.al Broadway material.

Not only does Elizabeth work with commercially active in­dividuals such as the "Agree Girl" mentioned above, but she is anticipating future commerical spots herself and on up the ladder. She has already been in the cast of an off-broadway "one-nighter" and Elizabeth considers that "a start". So why would a singer, dancer, and act­ress, thirty minutes from Broad­way and close-to-stardom spend

precious New York time student­teaching during her Christmas break?

"It's certainly not for the pay," "Tizzie" (an old high­school nickname) says, with a toss of the hair. "I came home for Christmas to ask Maleda McKellar if I could possibly student teach for a couple of weeks, and, well, here I am! I had no idea it would be this much fun, or work, for that matter!" And when Tizzie said work, she meant it.

Among the everyday class­room tasks Tizzie performed while working with McKellar were selecting and locating new plays and poetry for Tournament Class to use "on the road", teaching improvisation to Mc­Kellar's Speech II (Drama) Class, and simply talking and carrying on about her antics in New York. But when the bell rang at 2:15, Tizzie had only just begun. "I would run home and try to psyche up for the chaos," laughs Tizzie. The chaos referred to was Tizzie's coach­ing tournament-goers on new and original material . "I invited anyone who needed help over to my house one afternoon and the turnout was greater than I expected. This just became an everyday event, but we did get some work done and it saved McKellar a lot of unnecessary gray hairs," says Tizzie.

All of this speech and Drama knowledge that Tizzie possesses is due to her excellent past and present schooling. From her freshman through junior year in college, Tizzie attended Hollins College in West Virginia where she was elected president of the school "Drama Club" and was extremely active in college theatre. She then decided that New York was the place for a young, hopeful actress and she packed her bags and moved to Bronxville, New York to Sarah Lawrence College . . . only 30 minutes from Broadway. "It was tough to switch," Tizzie explains. "Hollins was a cute, preppy girls' 'school and Sarah Lawrence has a lot of extremely genious and creative weirdos! In some ways, I guess I fit right in! But I never could 've come nearly this far without Maleda's training right here at Shreve."

While attending high school here from 1977 to 1981, freshman through senior· year, Tizzie was cast in such shows as "Guys and Dolls", "Night Watch", and "Johnny Belinda". Since then , she has worked literally hund­reds of shows from musical comedy to melodrama. Her latest at Sarah Lawrence was "Ain't Misbehavin" , and Tizzie regards that as "another step up". "Theatre is my life, and I've come along way so far . . . got a long way to go, but I'm willing to give it a shot!"

7--

Sarah Lawrence College student and Shreve graduate Elizabeth "Tizzie" Reeder was quite active in past Shreve theatre productions such as "Nightwatch" in 1980. Reeder student taught for Maleda McKellar during her few Christ­mas weeks home from New York, and she spent much of her time home traveling with the Shreve speech team. Reeder also assisted in coaching and preparing many students for the 1984 tournament circuit. r---

--8 Gua_rds spark Gators SPORTS Smith leads ladies

Once again Davia Boydston has added a new dimension to his coaching style . This new style includes the ability to take a less than average team and guards that looked to be anything but promising and turn them into a 20-8 team and much better than average guards.

Boydston's solution to this unfaulted blunder was to move Daryl Henson, regarded as one of the best athletes in the city, to guard and use his fantastic ball handling ability to bring the ball up the floor . The other guard spot is filled by junior Scott Heno (a crowd favorite).

The guards are joined by college prospect, George Jones, whose uncanny ability to domi­nate a game could inhance his bid for a major college

scholarship. Boydston says, "I think he could play for a major college if he can put it all to­gether. n

William Young, who according to Boydston, is now playing his best ball, is averaging 12.4 points and almost , seven re­bounds per game.

The last spot is filled by the 6' 6" center-forward Kelly Smith, who has vastly improved since the start of the season. Smith is now averaging over seven points per game and four rebounds, but his helpfulness to the team is not just in his stats, but his presence on the court.

The Gators next match-ups will be against Green Oaks, Parkway and Airline.

Gators close in on title

The Gator basketball team has an excellent chance of advancing into the state playoffs if they can keep their momentum.

The entire regular season has Jed up to the past season action, which the Gators will look for­ward to. Center George Jones, who recently broke a school record by canning 41 points in a game, is on a hot streak that will hopefully, for Gator fans' sake, extend a few weeks longer.

With the Lady Gators sitting at a comfortable record and heading into, possibly their toughest district game, it is obvious to all that lady's basket­ball at Shreve is more than "just exciting . n

The Lady Gators are led by Senior team captain, and four year starter, Jennifer Smith, who averages 14.5 points, al­most 12 rebounds, and 7 blocked shots per game.

Smith is joined by Terry Bush, Sonja Prim, Wendy Horton, and Anita Hor,ton.

-----------------------9--· College football playoffs in futurel

by Fred Holland Reporter

"We will never see it happen in my lifetime," says University of Arkansas athletic director, Frank Broyles , in reference to a college playoff system.

These are the thoughts of several coaches and athletic directors throughout the nation.

However, while most are decided that a playoff system is needed to decide the national championship, (and not a board of overrated, underworked sports writers (alias AP) not all are decided on how to go about making a fair system, while still keeping the bowls in the picture.

Lou Holtz, who was a coach at Arkansas under Frank Broyles, and is now at the University of Minnesota, has devised a system.

Holtz designed the system early in 1978 following the bowl games when the Razorbacks, Texas, Notre Dame, Penn State, and Alabama all finished with identical 11-1 records. The championship was given to #4 Notre Dame after knocking off #1 Texas in the Cotton Bowl. (Does this sound familiar, Nebraska?)

Holtz's system contains a point system based on victories, and strength of schedule which would determine the four best teams at the conclusion of the bowl games. For each victory a team has against an 1-A op­ponent , it receives 10 points . It receives five more points every time the team defeats another 1-A foe. There are no points for ties or for wins over teams in a lower classification such as 1-AA.

In the semi-finals (which would be played a week before the super bowl) No.1 would play No. 4, and No. 2 would play No.3.

Before the Bowl games this season the leader would have been Auburn (405 pts.), fol­lowed by Nebraska (390 pts . ), Brigham Young (370), and Texas (350). Miami and Illinois follow up with 340 pts.

100 points for starters. The beaten teams and their final records were Southern Miss (7-4), Tennessee (8-3), Florida State (6-5), Kentucky (6-4-1 ), Georgia Tech (3-8-, Mississip­pi State (3-8), Florida (8-2-1 ), Maryland (8-3), Georgia (9-1-1 ), and Alabama (7-4). That's 65 victories by Auburn's opponents , but four of those were against 1-AA teams, throw those out and you have 61 victories multiplied by five for 305 additional points . Total 405.

Texas - The Longhorns won 11 games, but one of their vic­tories was over 1-AA North Texas . That is thrown out to give Texas 100 pts. instead or 110. The other teams that lost to Texas were Auburn (10-1 ), Oklahoma (7-4), SMU (10-1), Baylor (7-3-1 ), Arkansas (6-5), Texas A&M (5-5-1 ), Houston (4-7), Texas Tech (3-7-1 ), TCU (1-8-2), and Rice (1-10) . That's

Texas fans would wonder . 54 victories, but four were over about fairness, considering the 1-AA teams . The Longhorns add Longhorns beat Auburn in 250 points . Total 350 points . September. Holtz says that this "A lot more could be done is where the schedule begins to with what I proposed," says tip the scales. Holtz, "someone a lot smarter

Take a look at how Texas and than me could refine it. I just Auburn's point totals were built. want to add something to college

Auburn - The Tigers beat 10 football, not take anything fellow 1-A teams, giving them away from it."

The Oakland, excuse me, the L.A. Raiders, dominated the Washington Redskins 38-9 in what was supposed to be a super bowl, pardon the pun.

Analysis For the Raiders it was a super

bowl but for the Redskins it was a humiliation bowl. The 'Skins didn't appear to be the "world beaters" that the media bu i It them up to be. I think the game would have been much closer had the media not built up the game so much. The Redskin organization was more than happy to hold press conferences that should have been live on

Johnny Carson. It seems as though they made the Super Bowl a big comedy, but the joke was on them and the Raiders had the last laugh .

Perhaps the media plays too big a part of the game. The two weeks preceding the game were filled with nothing but promos, previews, and gentle quotes such as "I'd run over my mother to win this game." It is enough to make you go insane. What happened to the good old days when Packers, Bears, Colts, and Giants played in the NFL Championship game rather than Hogs, Smurfs, Darth Raiders, Steel Curtains, and Fun Bunches .

Next year I hope the NFL will dispose of the two week interval between the playoffs and Super Bowl and maybe the game won't be built up so big.

Baseball prepares for season by Scott Pohlkamp Sports Editor

The 1984 Gator baseball team will be much different from last year 's team which qualified for the state playoffs.

Gone are the likes of Robert Martina, Floyd and Lloyd Thomas, David Clary, Mike Magner, and Kevin Pickens, all of whom contributed to a team that went to the state play­offs two straight years. How­ever don't write this young team off. Returning starters include Carl Jackson (first base, pitcher), Woodus Humphrey (outfield), and Steve Gouthiere (pitcher, outfield). Other veterans are Donnie Powell (shortstop), Bubba Roark (third base), Bobby Nolte (catcher), Lenny Wells (outfield), and Derick Douglass (second base). As usual, AI

Fear explained by pSychologist by Elizabeth Spaht Feature Editor

Fear - a nerve-racking emo­tion that holds, halts, and even haunts many on a day-to-day . basis. People have consented to outrageous extremities simply to avoid a particular fear. But why? Why do people fear?

According to Dr. Joe Carlisle, psychology teacher at LSU-S, we learn our fears, which are molded by socialization, exper­iences and other peoples' traumas and accidents. "There are probably cues for us to be fearful just as there are cues for us to be aggressive," he says.

He explains that the capacity for emotional responses, like aggression, have some genetic components, but it finds expres­sion in the way that we interact in our environment, in the way that we are given cues to be ag­gressive and cues to be fearful. For example, if a rattlesnake was thrown at the feet of a 2-year-old, the infant probably would not display any sign of fret; he would simply be in­trigued, whereas, anyone older would be conditioned to run from the reptile. "It makes sense when we think that there were periods in our life when we were not afraid of things that we now fear," Carlisle says .

ing to Carlisle, -at one point in their lives, are afraid of mon­sters, the dark and separation from loved ones.

While the majority of fears are considered burdensome, some are considered good, normal and even genetic. Falling is one of these fears. A study was done in which infants were placed on plex·y glass tables and given a perceived vision of a cliff which would cause them to fall if moving forward. Their mothers stood before them, coaxing them eagerly to come forth. Although many did obey their mothers , enough refrained to provide statistically significant informa­tion that there may be some genetically organized fear of falling from high places.

A person is more I ikely to "get over it" if he is prepared, educated and helped to relax · while in the presence of his feared stimulus. In this way, Carlisle says, "they will grad­ually come to appreciate that they have control" and when that happens "the fear goes down." Carlisle gives an example of a "turtle phobic" he once knew, of whom he describes as "well-educated, intelligent and creative." They don't know where her fears came from, but they made an assumption that somewhere along the way she experienced an intense fear and an association of a turtle was made. To cure her they de­cided to use a psychological technique in which she would learn to control her anxious, irrational response to turtles while she was presented with Even though the fear of falling more and more of them. First may be genetic, most fears are she had to face a picture of a determined by the environment. turtle, then a turtle shell' and, The reason why some people finally, a turtle itself, little but may be more afraid than others real, of which she was required may be because of terrifying to touch.

Being alone in the house, dying in a car accident, losing a friend to death, cats, exams . . . and people sneaking up behind you, as in the case with freshman Deidre Garner. All of these and more make people afraid.

Why do people fear? People fear basically because they are taught to fear, because they have had horrifying experiences and because they are insecure. Some fears are normal if not taken to

drastic degrees, and if fears do become serious, tiresome prob­lems, one must learn how to conquer and control it, step by step, just as he learned to fear it in the first place.

But the fact is that people do have fears and they do either one of two things about it: fight it or run from it. Carlisle calls this the \tight or fright response." Most people run from it by avoiding it, while others go so far as to deny the reality of their fear, and those who deny it are destroyed by it," says Carlisle. He believes the best thing to do is isolate and target the feared stimulus, then, face up to it. "Avoidance only reinforces the fear," he stresses. Those who do finally face -up to their fears are the ones who have become exhausted and tired from having to avoid it. "They just want to get over it," says Carlisle.

Franklin Roosevelt told the nation, "We have nothing to fear except fear itself." Well, that's not exactly true - at least not to the typical Shreve student. Most Shreve students fear more than fear - namely snakes, intersections and death, just to name a few. When randomly selected students were asked "What are you paranoid about?" the answers ranged from the ordinary to the bizzarre.

Logically, many teenagers have a fear of driving. Freshman John Petty says his particular paranoia is of intersections. Petty explains that he once ran a stop sign and has flashbacks to that time whenever he drives now. Junior Davie Lewis is para­noid about having a wreck while being intoxicated. Lewis says, "I'm really paranoid when I drive drunk. I try to ride with somebody else or I'm real careful when I drive." Freshman Chad Cooper fears motorcycles, but not the bike itself. "I get in odd situations - like when the bike gets turned or something like that," says Cooper.

Junior John Childress doesn ' t fear driving, but does fear locking his keys in the car again. Last year, Childress locked his keys in the car and called the fire department to school to help him . His mother, dressed

in a nurse's uniform, came up to Shreve to look for him. As you can imagine, the whole scene caused a great commotion. "The tennis team thought some­one had died," Childress said.

Death and its cause, is also a popular paranoia of Shreve students. Senior Caron Reddy says she's paranoid about people dying, "I would rather die myself instead of someone else. I just can't handle death," says Reddy. Senior Denise Winchester wor­ries about exactly how she will die. Winchester says she wants to die of old age rather than to be killed. Junior Matt Vance makes the assumption, "Every­one's afraid of death."

Senior Ken Cunningham and Freshman Tracy Chandler fear drowning because they believe it would be the worst way to die. "I think it would be a lot of suffering because you would know of your certain death," says Cunningham. Marla Greenberg, junior, says she is afraid of getting cancer. "I've heard all those horror stories," says Greenberg.

Some Shreve students fear being attacked. "I'm scared of walking through the park in the day because there may be a weird man who will grab you," says junior Deborah Dallas. Senior Denise Winchester is afraid of being alone in her house and receiving prank phone

calls . When this happens, she calls one of her friends to talk and turns on all the lights around her.

Probably, some students would have paranoias about school, Steve Gouthiere, senior, fears being called to the office without knowing for what rea­son. "There is always something I've probably done," says Gou­thiere. Junior Jeff Abney fears taking exams. "I'm afraid of finals. I just try to keep in perspective. I try to remember that it is just a test." His sister, freshman Melissa Abney has a fear of just flat out failing her exams. Freshman Patrick Lam has a paranoia of making a "D" or lower on his report card. "If that happens, I might not get my license," says Lamb. Senior Keith Taylor is afraid of exces­sive tardiness while Junior George Mayliocca is fearful of being caught sneaking off to lunch .

One Shreve student fears her own abilities. Sara Benecke, sophomore, says, "I'm scared that I ' m going to be on the life­guard stand and somebody will start drowning and I won't be able to save them . I'm scared I ' ll freeze up," said Benecke.

Senior "Animal" Ashley Hullet perhaps had the cutest fear . Hullet is paranoid of people who have paranoia . "They make me paranoid, " said Hullet.
