America Can Lose Freedom
Ian Stuart Tells Students
"America can lose its freedom—it is up to the youth of
today to defend this freedom in the future," said Ian Stuart
in a speech delivered to JC students Wednesday.
The youth of today are the trustees of the American way
of life. They are the primary targets for Communist propaganda, he said,
City Plans To Feature JC
On 1957 Auto Stickers
"It offers something of which
we can be proud." That is the
reason Fort Smith junior college
will be featured on the city automobile sticker in 1957, according to Carl Adkins, city clerk.
"The exact picture has not been
chosen," Adkins said, "but it will
include as much of the junior college as feasible.
The sticker will be rectangular.
The colors to be used in it have
• not been definitely decided upon.
Printed within a circle in the
upper left hand corner will be:
'A Community College.' As a
community college there is no tax
money involved. It is directly
supported by the people in endowments and volunteer contributions.
"In the selection, of junior college for the sticker we are not
only plugging a community and
city service, but also a school
which belongs to the people,"
Adkins explained.
'Visit Your Junior College' will
be printed on back of the sticker
because people are urged to go
out and see what an opportunity
JC is giving young people to get
at least two years of college
right in their home town, he said.
"Whereas," Adkins pointed out,
"it might not be possible for students to go away to college."
"Junior college also serves the
surrounding area of Fort Smith,
giving students in many communities a college opportunity. It has
a sizeable night school enrollment
from Fort Chaffee, too."
Adkins further stated that . .
in the estimation of city officials
the junior college is an important
factor in our community. Through
it the community will grow and
attract people."
Adkins recommended the sticker, with junior college featured,
to the city Board of Commissioners, and they approved it.
Voters Will Select
Four Cheerleaders
Cheerleader tryouts will be

sealed ballot for four of the competitors.

Posts and cables will be used
to mark off spaces in the new
parking lot in the future, according to President Elmer
Cook.
"We don't know whether the
lot is big enough now or not,
but in the future we hope to
have enough space to park all
the cars there," Cook stated.
"This will enable JC to have
a nice campus. A few cars
may be parked near the rail

now, he explained, but in the
future the rail will be torn
down to allow grass to grow
and enhance the beauty of the
campus.
Cook pointed out that fire
laws prohibit parking within 50
feet of the building, and that
this law is being violated.
Parking cars around the
building has also caused the
grass to die there, he added.
In addition, salesmen serving
the cafeteria have had difficulty in driving their trucks to the
rear entrance, because of congestion.
Students are urged to park in
the lot to eliminate the parking
problem.
Two junior college educators
were honored yesterday at the
A r k a n s a s Education association's eighty-eighth annual convention in Little Rock.
President Elmer Cook and
Miss Luella Krehbiel were presented certificates by the department of higher education
for teaching over 25 years in
Arkansas. Mr. Cook has been
engaged in educational work in
Arkansas since 1924. Miss Krehbiel came to Arkansas from her
native Kansas in 1929.
M i s s Margaret Montague
spoke before the speech association meeting on "Ideas
for Programming.''
A former junior college student and a night school student
were in the University of Arkansas—Fayetteville Symphony

the University of Dublin, in 1947,
at the invitation of Princeton

The largest audience he has

He has spoken at Baylor, the
University of Arkansas, University of Tennessee, and other large
institutions.
"If the beanies arrive, freshmen initiation will begin next

"All offenders of the rules

"The only thing we have to
fear is forgetfulness" he added.
"We must remember the heritages handed down to the present generation and uphold
these traditions, this way of
life, for the future."
As trustees of this freedom
youth must work to uphold and
defend it. Nothing important in
life is free, Stuart said. "Instead, the best things in life
cost the most. In this way they
are appreciated more."
In touching other points concerning Americanism, Stuart
told the audience, crowded into
Miss Lucille Speakman's classroom, that teachers are in the
most important profession in
the United States today.
They must do their best to
train students to be ready to
go into the world, ready to
make contributions.
The greatest American freedom is the right to work and
m a k e contributions, Stuart
said. If we can't work freely
we can't develop our talents to
the fullest, he said.
Stuart was introduced by Carl
Wortz, a local business man
who sponsored the speaker in
the Fort Smith area. Stuart is
a member of the Southern
States Industrial council, an organization to promote free enterprize and dignification of
the individual, Wortz said.
Wortz was introduced by Dr.
Elmer Cook, JC president.
Stuart's ideas about students
going out to m a k e : contributions parellels the JC objectives closely, Dr. Cook said at
the close of the speech.
The speaker, in a two-day
visit to the area Tuesday and,
Wednesday speak before several civic clubs, Fort Smith high
school, The Arkoma schools,,
and' the Sallisaw, Okla. schools.
His home is in Birmingham,
Ala. Although he is a U.S. citizen he was born in Ireland.

In 1949, the junior college

JC 'Mural Program ! JC
"Because of the lack of co-operation and interest on the part
of students at junior college, the
total intramural program has
been cancelled for the 1956-57
school year," stated Jim Charles,
director of athletics.
"The badminton tournament
scheduled to begin last Monday
has been cancelled," he added.
"Some 35 students registered for
competition in both male and female divisions, but at playing time
none were present to play.
"Arranging, planning, and publicizing a tournament of any kind,
no matter how few the number
of entries, is no easy task. The
second period methods in physical education class consumed four
full periods making these arrangements, only to have them nullified by non-co-operative students."

Journalism Staff
Begins News Bureau
To supply area papers with
news concerning junior college
students from their community, the journalism department
has set up a News Information
bureau.
Stanley Winford, Lion's Roar
reporter, has been named to
head the bureau. It will be
Stanley's job to send news to
a student's home town newspaper when the student does
something exceptional or outstanding.
When such news is printed,
the stories will be clipped and
kept on file.
Last week such news was
sent to the Press-Argus in Van
Buren; The Alma News in Alma, ,and the Greenwood Democrat in Greenwood.
