reception which followed. Also

the faculty elected on the basis
of the four cardinal principles of
~ociety plus a 3.0 average . rMrs.
Gale Bridger, senior Engliah
teacher and NHS sponsor says ,

active in many ~chool p rojects
enyway." The purpose of the

Enthusiasm, Hard Work
And Never Say Die
Beh in d every great newspaper there m u s t be money,
and the Enterpr ise is no d ifferent. Without the hard working
business staff the Enterprise
would not be . It is t i m e the
proper recogn ition were given
to these brave individuals. Business •M anagers of the staff are
Sandra Brazzel and Diane !Ides.
Advertising Managers are Cla ire
Huhn and Martha Crenshaw .
The managers were selected on
basis of salesmanship abilities
and the number of ads sold for
the school year. Salesmen are
Jane Campbell, Martha Colquitt,
Margaret Elsey, Kay Kunkle,
Susie Nelson , Mark Lytle, Wanda Warner, Susan Wibker, Pam
ConraQ.; and Paul Klinger.
Major duties of these students
are to circulate among the local
b0siness pecple and solicit ads
for the paper. Other responsibilities include keeping up-todate records of ads sold, and in
which issues they appear, laying out galley sheets for prirV-er, keeping up with the bills and
money, and mailing copies of
each issue to every advert iser.
The procedure for selling ·an
ad involves quite a bit of finesse. Usually the businesses design their own ads, but man.y.
solicit the staff's suggestions.
Mrs. Loretta Gill ia m, business
staff sponsor, says, "The staff
has worked extremely hard and'
under difficult circumstances.
Sales may make the paper go,
but enthusiasm, hard work, and
o never-say-die attitude of staff
m em b e r s is what make the
sales!"
SETTING UP ADS for the next issue are members of the ENTERPRISE ad staff Wanda
Warner, Jane Cambell, Mark Lytle and Margaret Elsey.

Students' Vehicle
Of Communication
By ROB BENNETT
At different times during the
school year a student feels that
he has something to communiCpte to his faculty and fellow
studen ts.
The communication
may take several forms and have
several purposes . The student
would perhaps like to register
a complaint, offer a suggestion,
show prai se or gratitude, or start
a new project. In ~aving such
an idea it is possible that he is
represen ting others who share
h-is f~el ings with him. N.ow, if
this stude nt feels strongly about
h-is proposal for the common
good; he w ill want to voice it .
He will want his words to fall
on active, influential ears .
The student has now brought
his thinking to the point of asking an important question: where
can the student go to have his
feel ings on any pertinent issue
heard? A representative, active,
student organ ization not dealing
in trivia would be the student's
vehicle of communi<:ation. Such
an organization is the Student
Co ~:~ncil The Student Council is
Intended to be the most import~nt organ ization on campus . It
IS the only one specifically designed to represent each student.
The Student Council could
have enough power to become
instrumental in improving the
well being of the school. In order to attain this active in·
fluence, the organization has to
be in demand. The students and
faculty must use the Council.
W ithout t h i s use the Council
and its members will become
rusty and the organization will
~oncern itself with unimportant
mterests.
The importance of a Student
Counc il lies in its potential to be
a vo ice between teacher and
student and between student
and fellow student. This potent ial can be developed into a
very useful thing. Th is usefulness
and rmportance can be carried
on from year to year. Those students who are active in their
new school should be concerned
with making the few important
organizations truly important.
8ew11re!
The time draws near! A n d
Tuesday, February 20, marked
another minute in that fatal hour
of departure. On this day the
seniors were measured for the ir
caps and gowns b y Yearwood
Dry Goods. Graduation exercises will take place May 29 in
the Civic Center.
n/'11 Tell You Why"
By DONNA DAWKINS
"I have wept in the night
For shortness of s ight
That to somebody's need made
me blind;
But I never have yet
Felt a ling of regret
For being a little too· kind."
I guess we all have felt that
little tinge of regret sometime
or another in our lives. "If only
I'd known!" or "If he had told
me!" or " I would if I could." If
is a mighty big word these days
- too big, I'd say. It's used a
little too often. Many a time we
sit back and let Joe do ol.Jr job
for us. Bu t what happens when
it's too late? What can you do
the•1? Not much more than you
did before - Noth ing!
What's all th is leading up to,
you ask. What's the catch? Oh,
not m uch. We figure it's time a
littl e bit of praise and recognition was given to the service
cl ubs in the school - Interact
Z Club, and Key Club . Just what
are these clubs and what do
they do? Just another excuse
to get out on a school night?
Or another merit put beside yol.!r
name in the yeanbook? Or a
pin that ornament$ your clothes?
NO - not qu ite . Bel ieve it or
not thes.e clubs do something ;
some thmgs many of us would
not do on our ow,n .
Have you ever sat up late at
night and dyed Easter eggs for
children who won't be able to
run and find t hem? Or gone
Christmas caroling for people
who are so old they can hardly
hear? What's the use? Why
should I do that? Well, have you
ever considered that these people are constantly reminded
Did You Know?
That Shreveport or ig ina ll was
Shreve Town?
That the Federal Government
pu~chased the land from the
Caddo Indians for the sum of
$80,000?
That Fort Hu.mbug got its name
from a Confederate so ldier
return ing to Shreveport who
said, "This is no real fort but
merely a humbug?"
That on January 18, 1838', the
F'arisfi of Caddo was created
as "a new parish" of the state
of Louisiana?
That the Sabine River which constituted our western boundary
was named as The Boundary
Line of the United States? For
at that time Texas was a republic.
That Caddo is a popular name
contracted from Kadoadacho
mea ning "our own people"? '
that they are different? Do you
think it makes them happy · to
be different? Don 't you imagine
they apprecate someone who
treats them as a normal human
being? It's not always easy to
smile aild be cheery while performing these service duties. It
wou ld be so much easier to turn
away and ·hide. It's very depressing to watch a little girl (just
about the same age of your little sister o r brother) try to walk
and play ball.
What about the reward?
There's no reward - except
maybe the smi le t h a t returns
your smile or the h a n d that
takes your hand or the laugh
that matches you r laugh. No,
there's no reward. So why do
1t; why think of others besides
yourselif?
Why spend thar time y o 1.}
cou ld be with your boY'friend or
working on your car helping an
old man smile again? Why - I
don't kn ow why; I only know
that everywhere I look there's
11 hand re aching out to me with
a pair of pleadi ng eyes . . . If
you can tell me how to tell these
eyes no, then I w ill tell you
why.
Reflections
By DONNA DAWKINS
And God looked down upon me
here
Striking me very near to fear
Asking me although He knew
"Tell me, ch ild, who are you?"
Looking ahead wh il e looking
behind
Causing turmo il in my mind
With a sadness I whispered low
"I'm sorry, Sir, but i don't know ."
Now I am a lone
And without a song
What do I know?
Where do I go?
Questions are like a cancer
There are no answers
So how do I live?
Do I continue to give
Only to be taken
And then forsaken
Have . I no rights?
Are there any lights
To shine in this dark
And show the mark
That is left on me ·
For all to see?
Db I contirue to cry?
W ill I find out why?
I can no longer . run
And hide from the sun
Hut must stand in the light
And do what is right.
If you have written any original material that you would
like to have printed in the "Enterprise," please submit it to
Room 201 .
Before I go into my speech
today I'd like to share a little
incide,lt that took place at my
house recently . The fam ily was
siiting at the table eating supper when my little brother
Brian went into one of his famous tantrums . He refused to eat
his baked potato. "·Eat it!" D ad
ordered. Brian yelled back, " I
hate baked potatoes!" " Did you
taste it?" Mom asked him. "No,"
he said, "but I know I don't like
·it!" "How do you know if you
.haven't tried it?" Mom asked.
"You eat fried potatoes, and.
mashed potatoes . Just try one
bit1;1 of this before you m<~ke up
your mind ."
I don't remember whether my
brother ate thP. potato or not,
that's not really the point. If
you think about what he said
and did, though, I think you'll
realize what I'm trying to get
across: Brian had never tried the
'f:iaked potato, yet he had already
made up his m i n d that he
wouldn't like it. In other words,
he was prejud iced against t h e
?Otato.
Now you may laugh at t h e
idea of being prejud iced against
a potato - and it does sound
:ather silly - but it's prejudice
JUSt the same: it's not a bit different from pre judi'Ce against certain kinds of people; the kind
of pre1udi::e that is dangerous
in a free country like ours; the
kind of prejudice that is the
enemy of brotherhood and
peace.
Look ing at this incident closely, we can see that it teaches us
a lot of things that are tr·ue .for
people as well as for potatoes .
The first point was that my bro·ther are fr ied potatoes and
mashed potatoes but he claimed
that he hated the ba.ked potato.
Sound a little ridiculous? It is.
A. potato may be prepared In a
dff,ferent way, but it's still a potato underneath. Different types
of potatoes may look different
on the outside, but they're all
basically the same. And it's the
same way with people. All men
- like all potatoes - are created
equal. Different men, too, have
different outer appearances; but
each is still a man if one looks
deeper. Does it make any more
sense, then, to bl.indly hate certain types of men than it dQes
to blindly hate certain types of
potatoes? Of course not.
Let'.S look on. My 'brother had
a lready decided that he hated
the potato, before he tasted it.
"Just try it," N\am insisted.
"Give it a chance ." Some of us
are this same way with other
people. Do we let e a c h man
prove himself, do we let him
try, or have we already made up.
cur minds before he can be
gin? Do we judge every man
for what he is, or on the basis
of his color, or his religion? Too
many of us are not giving peo·
pie a fair chance an¥ more than
my broth er offered a fair chance
to that potato. When we don't,
we are being just as childish
as he was .
But we can't afford to be
childish . This tense, troubled
world
needs
brotherhobd and badly - lbut there just does
not seem to be much of it lyin.g
around . In nearby Jackson, Mi~
sissippi, nate groups bombed a
Jew ish temple several months
c:go, then bombed the home of
the Rabbi. In the ghettos of our
cities black power advocates are
stirr ing up a war in the str~ts
to "kill Whitey ." In the Middle
E'ast Jews and Arabs squint
down gun barrels at each other.
In South Vietnam, Buddhists and
Cathol ics are locked together in
a bitter power struggle.
Ye~ , if this world is ever to
progress in peace there must b~
understanding between men·
tnere must be an elimiantion of
the prejudice and hatred that are
prime causes of war . That
sounds fine and dandy, but you
may ask, 'What can we do about
it ?" To rid the world of hatred,
we have to begin on a personal
level. -Here are some things each
of us can· do:
·First, we can try to gain a real'
understanding of those who are
different from us; we can seek
to learn of their beliefs and · respect them, just as we dem<~nd
respect for our own beliefs.
Second, we can keep in mind
always that all men - like all
potatoes - came from the · same
Source. All are equal in the eyes
of God .
F.inally, we can judge every
man - like every potato on his own merits. Don't judge
a man according to what ne berieves; that's due to his background. Don't judge a man according to color of his skin · this
is due to God's will. Judge a
man only as a man; take each
man for what he is, not what
you think he should be. Give
every man - like every potato
- a fair chance .
Because that is what brotherhood all boils down to: only by
re51pecting all men full, and g.ivmg each man a fair chance, can
you truly "Love thy neighbor as
thyself."

Where the Akchin Is . • •
By DON AKCHIN
The prophets of doom have
beer! saying "Radio is dead" ever
since television first made the
~. cene .But it would only take
them one look al my· house to
see how influential radio really
is.
There is a telephone sitting
peacefully in the .hallway. That
is, it sits peacefully MOST of the
time .. But once every hour that
hone looks more like the Washir.g'lon-Moscow hotline. Just yesterday I was walking calmly out
of my room on my way to the
refrigerator when I overheard·
those terrifying words over the
radio: "Name it and claim it!" .
My blood turned to ice! I tried
to run, but not in time! Bam!
The door to my sister's room
flew ope[l! S¥/oosh! Out flew
Debbie in a mad dash for the
telephone! Slat . . . !
r must have regained consciousness just after the disc jockey announced "No more calls,
please, we have a winner," because Debbie b a n g e d the receiver so hard the phone kept
ringing for a solid minute and
a half. She g ingerly trampled
over me on her way back to
her room, shouting, "If you
hadn't been in the way I would
have won it!" Then the door to
her room slammed shut.
Of course, it doesn't always
happen like this. More often
than not, the telephone is safely behind the door to Debbie's
royal bedchamber when the
tragic momen.t .arrives. W h e n
this is the case, the extension
cord is stretched across the hallway, neatly camou{laged in the
rug so that everyone trips over
it. Since Debbie can't keep the
phone in her room all day, she
worked out tPme charts for each
disc jockey. At two minutes before the time for a "name it and
cia im it" according to her probability chart, she drags the
phone in, tries for the contest,
and returns the phone . The
charts haven't helped her to w.in
any records, but her m<~th grades
are improving tremendously.
And speaking ·o f charts, she
also keeps a recor,d of all the top
forty tunes for each week, so
that she can compare these local ratings with the nation.al top
twe ;1ty. The comparison comes .
ever·1 Sunday morning, usually
in that long period between the
time I get out of bed and the
time I w<~ke up. Last Sunday I
was sitting at the breakfast table
minding my own business, and

newspaper into focus Debbie.
walked in and gra!)bed the magazine section. "Hey! Guess what's
number one!" she shrieked.
''Hgmmhgrphf."
"No, 'Love is Love' by the

"Gre.a.t"
"I think so too! Oh, look! Th is
song by the Leapin' Lizards is
number three! T h a t ' s the one
that they never even play here.
Hey! Here's a surprise - yo u
know that n e w one by Alan
Olive and the Pitstops?"
"Do ·whaa . .. . ?"
"Sure you've heard it. It goos
'Mmmmm, mmm baby, mmmm ,
So fine, mmmmm.' Remember
now?"
"I dou'bt it. What's the second

"I .already did that. You missed
it. We.ll, anyway, it's number

And so it goes. But now I've
discovered ~hat my nine-year-old
brother is getting hooked on this
stuff. He has his own transistor
radio, knows the lyrics to thirteen songs, thinks he can buga!oo, and wants to hang pinups
of the Mookees on his wall. It
should be only a matter of days
before he memorizes the number of the "magic fun line" and
starts racing Debbie to the telephone)QJ11tt)e "name it and claim

To be born on February 29
means to be born on a day that
only occurs once- e y, e r y four
years. Leap year has 366 days,
or one more day than an ordinary year. A leap year occurs in
every year which can be divided
evenly by four except the years
that mark the centuries.
The- name is due to the fact
!hat the year "leaps forwarcf' a
day. Julius Caesar added this
day every 4 years to arbsorh the

out over the 4. year span . The
extra day was originally inserted after February 25, the 6th

The Contemporary Girl
By CAY LAY
Romance and gagsters, wh ich
w ill I be today? Shall I be th e
fickle, femin ine Scarlet O'Hara
or shall I live for life and court
deat~ with Bonnie Parker? Those
are the questions th<1t enter the
mind of the sixties g irl. There
is no look today that is not tied
to the past, and why shou ld
there be when the past is so
enchanting and so easily adapted to the fickle but frank, tough
but vulnerable, town and country girl of today.
e Bonnie and Clyde
(Middi vs. Mini)
A new look has been flashing
in the background unla-beled
for a long time, but now Faye
Dunaway and Bonl'lie Parker,
have claimed it and it's the big-.
gest fashion influence since
Qreta Garbo's slouch-hatted Ninotchka loo·k. It's a mixture of
the arrogant thirties and the reverberating sixties.
When the movie "Bonnie and
Clyde," starring Faye Dunaway
(natu-rally) and Warren Beatty",
came out it was a success inmore ways than one. The gangster look, wide lapels, wide tie,
wide brimmed hat, wide pinstripes and all, crystalized into
the new look ever'f!Where for all
escapades.
But with the great phenomen.
on came the "MIDI" and only
a real "-Bonnie" can wear it and
only a "day after tomorrow girl"
will. Fashion plates around the
world are we.3ring it everyday
and eventually it will be common. If I may allow myself to
be a fashion influet)(;e for a paragraph or so I'll tell you how I
see it. Elasticity, my friends,
elasticity anc:j practicality are the
basics of any fashion. If every
fashion designer in the world
created a certain style, if it were
uncomfortable no one would
wear it. Fashion has already become more realistic, with t h e
mini and t.he midi sharing prominent fashion influence. Tomorrow's designer will create the
midi for fall wear, floor or ankle
length for winter, knee length
for spring and the miini for
summer. Of course, formal wear
then would .also be designed
with the individual in mind. After
all, what woman doesn't want to
be an. individual to be an ind ividual in her own way, isn't
fickle in fashion with the desire
to change frequently and create a certain image - her image? Z e r o x machin-es ml.}st

Taoism.
Tao - (pronounced Dow) has

God, Enlightenment or the Absolute. None of these is aqequate.
The Tao Teh Ching, "The Book
of Tao and How to A'ttain It," is
at least 2,500 years old in written form. The book is full of

CAPTAIN SHREVE ENTERPRISE
Gymnasts Debut
During Halftime
By TOMMY ARCENEAUX
The roundballin' Gators ended their season with promises ot
prosperity in the coming years. The team, which started three sophomores and two juniors, completed the twenty•.five ga.me gr~nd
with a 15-10 record, the best ever for a first year school in Louisiana prep basketball. Led throughout most of the season by lanky
Mike Harrell, the varsity team proved aga in and again that although
they were a first year team, they were also a first-rate ball club .
Although they were unable to beat slJ'ch tea-ms as Byrd and
Woodlawn, they continually out-played the senior powers they
played, holding them to below average scores wthen .they faced
them. In one of the last games of the season the:1 held the powerful Byrd Yellow Jackets to a 69-62 win and even led the Jackets
for a good portion of the game . In the final game of the season,
the Gators mopped up on the North Caddo Rebels and ·really
proved their superiority and potential for next year, downing the
Rebels by 20 points. It appears from their performance this year
that this year's freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will have a
spectacular team to support riext year.
Although the season. officially closed with Nor~h Caddo, the
Gators had a grand final~ as they were successfully contested by
their fathers Thursday, February 22, in the Dazzling Doubleheader,
sponsored by Key Club, the second game cf whrch was the Captain
Shreve coaching stamf versus the Fair Park coaching staff. The
fathers were g iven 20 points before the start and ma;1aged to
maintain a lead with the aid of six men on the court and fen men
ih tbe fourth quarter . The young giants were unable to gain the
twenty points .and fell to their fathers, wh ich is as it should be .
In the second game of the dolJ'ble-header, the coaching staff
went absolutely cold in falling to the Fa ir Park coaches by almost
10 points . Unfortunately, Coach Billy W iggins was not able to
repeat his 31-point performance in t.he prev ious week's win over
Fair Park.
By my errors last issue, there were several matters to clear u·p .
a:irst, four additions should be made to the list of football lettermen - seniors Chis Snow, Stvart Smith, Steve Muslow and J . C.
Broome. Secondly, actual results in the Pretty Legs Contest were:
bang Wedgeworth, Shelby Houston and Mike Harrell .
Football spring training began and ended quickly, but witt
begin again in May when once again this sport will ocwpy !lhe.
m inds of Capta in Shreve s·tudents.
Since the end week in December, twenty-1wo girls have been
working and developing the first
gymnastic team ever formed at
Captain Shreve.
The names of these students
are Ka.thy Price, Bonnie Land,
Martha Marrs, Arax Tefanstion,
Debbie Thomas, Gigi Zelinsky,
Diane Remopolis, Srb ile Pardue,
Susan Wibker, Debbie Kimpler,
Julie Loughran, Ma.rsha Hinkle ,

Barham-Captain, Lonny Rimelco-captain and Sue Crooks, Secretary-treasurer . All of the girls
are sophomores except Julie who
is a Senior and Cindy Wood and
Arax Tefans.tion who are jjuniors.
"The purpose of the team is.
to give the glrls a chance for
competitive experiences in women's all around gymnastics," says
Mrs. Deana Knight, physical education teacher and coach for the
team. "All around," exclaims
M.r1s. Knight, "means tha:t the
grils work the four even-ts that
are required for Olympic makeup which are the balance beams,
free exercise, side horse vaulting and uneven parallel bars."
Women's gymnas.tics is an
Olympic sport which is considered on.e of the most skillful and
feminine sports of all as it requires great strength, g race,
flexalbility,
endurance
and
rhymthmic ability to perform all
fou revents.
Captain Shreve's team showed
mvch ski-ll whe nthey performed a hallf-time tumbling exhibition at ·on·e ·o f our heme basketball games. They have a meet
scheduled with Fair Park f o r
Marckl 30 on Saturday morning.
They are also hoping t h at a
meet will be s'c heduled with Boss ier High School.
The team woriks out ,t wice a
week on Tuesday and Thurshay,
after school for an hour and a
half. They show much promise
and s·kill and the ENTERPRISE
staiif wishes them the best of
luck in the upoomi·ng meets.

Formal practice began Monday, Felbruary 26, when all the
