Willie Spreen played the part
of the clown and did a great job.
As we left all we could hear was
“Bye, Dodo. Bye, Dodo. Bye.” A
hard job, well done, Willie. Here

THANKS, GROWL STAFF!
After long hours of hard work and much planning, the yearbook
staff has completed the 1957 Growl. I would like to express my
appreciation to the staff members who have carried through their
duties so faithfully.
Special recognition is due the following people who worked long
hours developing ideas and many more hours carrying them through
page by page: Betty Jo Miles, Tim Van Antwerp, Dick Smith, Gene
Dippel, Dorman Schmidt, Kermit Westerholm, Prof. B, C. Baumbach,
and Prof. Francis Burke.
To all the staff members and members of the faculty who
assisted, a most hearty thank you. Without your support, the annual
would not have gone to press.
This staff not only made the 1957 Growl a review of this year’s
activities, but it will remain a highlight for all TLC students in
the many years to come.
Dr. E. B. Everitt, sponsor, commends the staff for a job well done.

1957 Growl

The Players are really treading
the traditional old boards. They
have two plays in rehearsal, the
children’s theater production of
“The Clown Who Ran Away,” and
the three-act play, “My Three An-
gels.”
In “The Clown” there are seve-
ral girls who play the part of
walking and talking dolls. The
other night several of the “dolls”
were absent from rehearsal, and
George Helmcamp, who is cast as
the dollmaker’s assistant, decided
to act out the part of the dolls.
You should have seen George do
the part of the “hip-swinging” si-
ren. Real George!
Friends of the newspaper audi-
ence, you should have been at the
F. C. Weinert Elementary School
last Thursday, March 14, when
“The Clown” was presented there.
It just thrilled me all the way
down to my little pink toes the
way they responded to Dodo the
clown and the mechanical dolls.
There have been several date
changes in the spring theatrical
productions. The date of “My
Three Angels” has been moved up
to March 30 and April 1. April
15 is the new date of the Easter
play. The Easter play is “The
Bishop’s Candlesticks.” The date
changes were made so that extra
baseball games could be added on
the dates originally scheduled for
these productions.
The “We-Cut Razor Company”
gave me a good offer the other
day, but I couldn’t take them up.
The patch of growth on my upper
lip and lower chin is for the part
of Henri in the “Angel” product-
ion. Gotta keep it.
noticed the work
that is going on in back of the
Kennel. The arena theater is get-
ting over-hauled for the “Angels.”
The overhead lighting area is be-
ing shortened and a new control
panel is being put in. Lynn Welch
is in charge. Nelson Klar is also
lending a helping hand.

“We always ‘suspicioned’ that
there were some tricky maneuvers
pulled by professors about exam
time, but Goshen College confirms
our worst fears. It was overheard
from the faculty that there is a
national conference at which there
is emphasis on ‘How to Make
Trick Questions Trickier.’ Topics
under discussion were listed too:
‘The Art of Covering the Contents
of the Complete Book in One Easy
Question’, and ‘What to do if the
Student Actually Understands the
Question.’ ”
A poll of students at the U. of
California concerning registration
brought this comment from one
student. “I can’t say much about
registration. I always register late.
I think it’s much easier.”
In anticipation of nine-week ex-
ams: (Lamar Tech Redbird)
When to study our honest intent,
With furrowed bows our heads
are bent,
With firm resolve not to relent . .
“Let’s all go to the Union.”
We must not yield to the temp-
tation;
Must spend our time in contem-
plation.
All too soon—examination!
“Aw, let’s all go to the union.”
From the Trinitonian “Letters to
the Editor.”
“Trinity students were again
made the victims of vandalism.
This vandalism pertains mainly to
students’ cars. This was the final
straw: A graduate student, who
has just been on campus for two
weeks, had both the front tires
stolen from his car which was
parked on the campus.”
It seems that nine-weeks had arrived (whatever
J ; that means), and many of your scholars were in-
tently bent on absorbing some of the knowledge
- which had been ineffectually poured upon them for
the past half semester by their patient superiors.
One young lady seemed especially cognizant of the better arts
of studying. She was comfortably dressed, propped up in the middle
of her bed, surrounded by pillows, magazines, apples, empty coke
cups, letters from home, stationery, an empty cracker box, bobby
pins for setting her hair while studying, and a few textbooks.
I was so amazed I did not stay to see the outcome, but 1 do
know this. When we were in Yukcul school, learning how to fly
right, we couldn’t possibly have learned Calculated Navigation under
such circumstances.
But perhaps that is the difference in the intelligence of humans
and Yukculs. For her sake, I hope so
The Student Senate has ar-
ranged tentatively for a contest
for the words and music for an
alma mater song, set down a rul-
ing on the wearing of school let-
ters, and passed a proposed con-
stitutional amendment to elect
cheerleaders in the spring.
In further action the senate has
laid plans for sending five repre-
sentatives to the annual state con-
vention of the Texas Intercollegi-
ate Student Association and nomi-
nated two members to sit in on
meetings of the Library Commit-
tee.
Details of the song contest will
be announced in the near future,
the goal being an
hymn of student
Plans call for a screening commit-
tee of qualified judges with final
adoption of an appropriate hymn
by the student body.
As a step toward preventing
confusion, all organizations which
issue, letters to outstanding mem-
bers are to signify on the letter
the activity in which the letter has
been earned, with the exception of
the legally recognized athletic or-
ganization on the campus.
The proposed constitutional a-
mendment which will be brought
to student vote soon calls for the
election of all five cheerleaders in
the spring with the designation of
the two candidates receiving the
next highest number of votes being
declared alternates.
The TISA convention will be
held at Lamar Tech, March 28-30.
Five representatives from the sen-
ate, including a press delegate,
will attend the three-day meeting
of student leaders from through-
out the state.
The two members chosen to
meet with the Library Committee,
Roy Neumann and Charles Pe-
derson, are to aid the committee
in the selection of periodicals and
with such other problems which
affect student use of the library
facilities.

Constitution Revision Underway
The constitution for community government under which student
government now operates has been outgrown. The need for a more
adequate constitution has been recognized, and a committee of Student
Senate members is now at work revising and rewriting the consti-
tution.
Ironing out such things as indefinite wording in some of the
articles, evasiveness, incompleteness, and even contradiction, together
with the inclusion of provisions which seem necessary for the efficient
working of community government is the goal of the committee.
In a larger sense, however, the work which is being undertaken
is not the work of the committee alone or even of the Student Senate.
Better student government does not spring up overnight. It grows
as the result of the conscientious planning and work of interested
people. The rewriting of the constitution is but one step toward
a better student government. The student body leaders need YOUR
help and YOUR interest.
The suggestions, ideas, and criticism of evey member of the
campus community are worthy of consideration. Should there be a
provision which you believe should be included in the new consti-
tution, or, conversely, a provision in the old which needs revision or
exclusion, let the constitution committee know about it.
Heading the committee is Charles Pederson. He, the student
body president, or any other member of the senate will be glad to
listen to your suggestions.
DEAR EDITOR:
Although I realize it is neither fitting nor
dignified for a Yukcul to become so interested in
I human affairs, I found my insatiable curiosity
getting the upper hand the other night as I was
flying over one of your student domiciles. I was
i baffled by what I saw and heard.
