Math, reading ...

Shreve scores above state average by Jan Rivet

Louisiana has long been ranked in the bottom 6 to 1 0 percent of the nation where education and literacy is concerned. And stardardized tests seem to support that theory year after year accordin9 to many newspapers and so-called authorities in the field.

However , the recent assesse­ment scores for the math and reading tests recently released to the public show how wrong that theory actually is. At least at Captain Shreve High School.

The juniors at Captain Shreve took the assessment tests in reading and math at the beginning of school generally

THE

scored higher than other Caddo Parish schools and the state of Louisiana itself.

When Assistant Principal Sandra McCalla was asked if Captain Shreve had improved enough over last year's scores in reading, she replied that she was satisfied and , of course, hopefu I for more improvements next year . Miss McCalla suggested upgrading the propaganda skills and going over the standard minimum guide­lines given to school officials by the state .

Louisiana public schools didn't take the math test last year; therefore , scores recently released to the state and parish ,

/

in which Captain Shreve ranked way above average for the area, cannot be compared to any last year.

In reading, CS again ranks above the state and parish levels. They even improved somewhat above last year's scores , making them second only to Southwood High School on the parish level.

On the math assessment test, CS ranked higher individually and compositely than any other school in Caddo Parish.

All in all, the school officials , are pleased with the performance of the students on the two assessment tests, even though they expect even higher results next year.

CAPTAIN SHREVE SENIORS Rick Thompson and Jerry Schwarzback display Shreve's solar collector, which Is located on the roof of the school.

Solar collector placed on roof by Thomas Buckner

Captain Shreve 's physic class was assisted by the Shreveport Fire Department on · Feb. 16, in placing a solar collector on the roof of the school.

The solar collector measures approximately six feet by five i'(lches ('6x ' 3x5 " ). It consists o'f two plates of glass in front of a plastic sheet with a network of tubes, much like the back of a refrigerator, through which liquid is pumped and heated by the sun. Located behind the tubes is a layer of insulation.

The dimensions prevented the collector from being lifted up through the roof hatches and the fire department was asked to help hosit it up . What was thought to be a simple task turned into quite a chore when the fire department's platform truck could not extend far enough over the walkway cover­ings to reach the roof. Several of their extension ladders and a large rope had to be used to pu II the collector up on the roof.

David B. Newill, who works for General Motors, and Jack Kidwell, of Solar Energy Systems , Inc., arranged for Captain Shreve and two other local high schools to be given solar collectors. Both of these companies have been doing research with solar energy in the Shreveport area.

As described earlier the solar

collector contains a series of tubes through which liquids are pumped. Water is often used but G.M. was expe.rimenting with peanut oil because of its higher boiling point. This is important because the collector can reach over 200F. The tubes run through a water reservior, which heats the water. The collector could produce enough hot water for up to 3 people a day. If the rate of the liquid being pumped through is decreased, the water could even be heated to boiling, producing steam to drive an electric generator.

As of yet the collector is not in op-eration for lack of a water

reservoir. Otto Sellers , head of the physics department , says that the best reservoir would be an old i nsu Ia ted water heater. Jerry Schwartzbach and Rick Thompson, who made the trip to the G. M . solar experiment station south of town to pick up the collector and water pump, have built an adjustable stand to face the collector toward the sun . When all is completed they will be working on science fair projects with the collector . The physics classes will also be doing several experiments.

Solar energy is the energy of the future. Because of the solar collector Captain Shreve students will have the advantage of first hand experience with the future .

Hardy speaks to students by Laurel Spivey

Paul Hardy , one of several gubernatorial candidates, spoke to the student body on March 12, in conjunction with CS Student Council Week.

Hardy, a former native of Cecilia, Louisiana , has served as State Senator for Iberia and St. Martin parishes and is now serving as Secretary of State for Louisiana, an office he has held since 1976. In 1977, the Louisiana Jaycees recognized him as one of three outstanding young men in Louisiana. In addition , Hardy also holds the Juris Doctor degree from Loyola Law School in New Orleans.

As a part of his plans , should he be elected as governor, Hardy intends to live in his own home rather than to reside in the governor's mansion. According to Hardy, he would rather have his family at home with their own friends. "I want my children to play in their neighborhood and to go to school with their friends, like all the other kids on the block." He stressed that he wants to be I ike any other

father who goes to work in the morning and returns home in the evening .

In addition to his desire to live away from the governor's mansion, he also plans to have the north-south road completed even if he has to "call out the National Guard" to do so.

Hardy also has definite stands on other issues. Among these are his beliefs in the right-to­work law, ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and continued teacher tenure laws.

Shreve students score high on reading and math tests

The reading and math assessment test scores have been released and once again Caddo Parish eleventh graders have been labelled as students who are markedly behind their appropriate levels in literary and mathematical skills.

Nevertheless when one examines the test scores, they should note the fact that both Captain Shreve and Southwood high Schools ranked above the state and parish levels on the reading assessment tests. In addition Captain Shreve ranked highest on the math assessment test in Caddo Parish this year, with Southwood trailing close behind. Despite these promising scores, Captain Shreve and Southwood were still lumped together with the other Caddo Parish schools, which resulted in them being categorized as "slow".

It seems as though the students of these two schools had two strikes against them even before they took the tests this year. The first strike was the fact that they are residents of the state of La ., which has been repeatedly ranked in the bottom 6 to 10 percent of th_e nation in education. Being located in Caddo Parish , which scored slightly below La. 's average this year , is their second impediment .

We feel that such treatment is unfair. Simply because one or two schools in a particular area rate low on a test does not mean the the rest of the area schools are progressing at the same slow speed. Instead of stereotyping a whole area, each schoo·l should be reviewed indivioually.

Furthermore when studying scores from assessment tests such as these one cannot help but wonder how accurate they are in the first place. Apparently others have also contemplated their accuracy because Caddo school officials are now trying to seek the validity of the scores.

In their search for inconsistencies, the Caddo staff is comparing the evaluation of th~ new assessment scores with the evaluations from other standarized tests that have been given in Caddo schools. The purpose of this investigation according to Walter Lee, Caddo School Superiotendent , is to guarantee that the evaluations are accurae indicators of student performance. We feel that this s-tep that the School Board is taking is an important and necessary one.

All in all, atter glvlng the assessment test pfan an evenview we have come to the conclusion that it does have possibilities. If the Caddo officials o~ganize the testing better next year and don 't stereotype areas we feel that they ' ll be able to get a better view of the output of our schools .

GED-Something to think about More and more young people today are quitting school and

taking the General Educational Development Test (GED). This diploma is supposed to be the equivalent of a high school diploma, and is offered by the Caddo Adult Education Center. After reading this article, those persons considering obtaining one of these diplomas will, hopefully, look into the situation a little more deeply.

Before a person can take the GED, there are a few requirements to meet. First, one must take the California Achievement Test. Second, one has to be a Qrade level of 13, and last, one must be 18 years of age. If a person IS under 18 and married..z he take the test; otherwide, he must write the State Department of t::ducation .

Sounds simple enough, doesn't it? Well , sometimes it's not so easy. After taking the California Achievement Test, if you are not on grade level13, you can 't get the GED. You then must go to classes on the subject in w~ich you are deficient. After the classes, you can go back and try agam .

More than just the requirements need to be considered when trying for aGED, though . This is not an "easy way out." There is no easy way out , though there are cases when a GED may be an individual 's advantage.

Take, for example, someone who had trouble coping with schoolwork and dropped out, or possibly someone who was expelled . For some reason or another, they cannot get back into the school system or it would not be worthwhile . Without any kind of diploma, these persons wfii find it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to work at a job at wnicn they can make a living. For people in a situation such as this , the GED may be 90 answer .

Although it appears easier to obtain than a high school diploma, the GED is not always, in fact we believe, is seldom the right st'ep to take. If a student, who is passing and still advancing in his learning, reaches a point where he feels like quitting, let him stop and think seriously about it first. It is so terribly difficult to progress in this world without at least a high school diploma, that to go so far, and work so hard, and then settle for less by quitting and getting a GED, seems a shame. Also, some employers won't even hire people with a GED. They would rather have somebody with a high school diploma. In this case , aGED is not the answer .

If you really think about it, you'll realize that the GED should be taken only as a last resort. After all other opportunities have been exhausted , then maybe the GED is the only chance left . It may give a person one last chance toward some sort of prosperity, but in the long run it pays off to stay in school and get that "not-so-hard-to­earn" diploma.

New detective nDvel full Df many twists, surprises

by Karen Rosengrant The Investigation by Dorothy

Uhnak, 410 pages, Paperback­$2.50.

Kitty Keeler was a beautiful elusive, young women with a plush home and a lovely, story­book family, consisting of a doting husband and two adorable little boys. The family lived in a seemingly dreamlike existence, which soon emerges into a night­mare when the young sons mysteriously disappear from the house during the night.

The District Attorney's Investigating squad immediately embarks on "the investigation" of their disappearance, soon dis­covering that the Keeler boys have been brutally murdered

and cold-bloodedly discarded in a nearby lot. The unraveling of the solution of this horrible double murder is the basis for for the bestseller, The Investi­gation , which has had a sale of over 450,000 hardcover books.

The novel is overflowing with intriguing and baffling characters, such as Kitty, and "as many twists as there is pages" as The Chicago News commented.

It is a captivating tale of murder, detection and passion which should be read by all mystery lovers. As Cosmopolitan magazine stated "The Investi­gation grips like the handcuffs designed for someone's wrists­but whose?"

Basics needed Dear Editors,

Ever since 1 was in the first gratle, teachers have said we need to get back to basics. They say this and do not really do it. Students need to know more about things that are necessary to move up in the world . We need to know less about ab/3z2 and more about balancing check books and writing letters.

Dear Editor,

Should high school students be allowed to leave the school campus for lunch? I believe so. Students these days are not allowed to leave school for lunch unless they have a lunch pass from the doctor. Policemen stationed at the parking lots to catch people that leave anyway.

This system of off-campus lunch has worked in Bossier and I do not understand why it can't work as well in Shreveport.

Anne-Maria Cole

Decisions in life usually don't come too easy for the average high school student. Decisions I ike whether to step out of the way of an in coming diesel truck , when to go to the · bathroom , or whether to cry for help if a madman is about to kill you, usually are easy to make, but a decision for which course to take for the coming year is troubling and most importantly , decisive .

The schedule registrations recently handed out will play a large role in the future of a high school student. This year seniors who have already entered courses they now regret to have put down still have another chance if they plan to go to college. People entering college usually have their career decided on , which is why registering for the right courses is so vital to a person's future career . High school courses that are wisely planned benefit not only the college-bound student but most importantly the student who doesn't plan to go to college. Thus, the long piece of paper that took a full period of school to explain , plays a large part of our lives .

To understand the matter more clearly, a few illustrations might help. There are, I believe, different types of people who sign up for courses . A person can be a sluffer , ignoramous, a doubter, or an aspirer .

A sluffer doesn't mean you walk as if you have a charley horse in both legs or that you bid all your money on a pair of twos '. It's a person who takes just the required amount of credits and doesn't really care what course it is as long as it's easy and not strenuous. I'm not saying that if you don't particularly like math or English that you have a charley horse in both legs.

An ignoramous is like a sluffer except that the importance of registration hasn't really dawned on him . When I say ignoramous I don 't mean that you make F's on every test. An ignoramous just doesn't realize the importance of wise registration.

A doubter is a step above a sluffer or an ignoramous in one aspect; they realize the import­ance of registration but just don't have a single idea of what their career might be. So they end up dabbling at one field and then another hoping to find the right bowl of porridge, as goldilocks would say.

There was a blatant clue to the fact that the character played by actor Peter Finch in the movie "Network" was nuts, when he ordered America to turn off their sets and quit watching television permanently! Speaking for a generation of t.v. junkies , I know that this could never come to pass . At most we can only squirm in the grip of our addiction and long that some aspects of television would change.

One of the nastiest tricks the networks play, is to schedule three "blockbuster" events on the same night to win the ratings race. This usually occurs after a long dry spell of reruns , challenge of the celebrities playing idiot games, or the President dominating all three networks to tell us something no one wants to hear .

Finally, and most importantly , is the aspiring type of person who faintly or assuredly knows what kind of field they would like to pursue. This person knows which type of course would aid them the most in what ever field they plan to follow. Take for example , a person planning to pursue architecture would be sure to take maths and mechanical drawing, a scientist, of course, would take sciences and maths and a commerical artist would want to take art and possibly Commercial Art at the Caddo Career Center.

Over all, your best bet for a successful future (which can mean success money wise or being content in a line of business) is to be an aspirer. You should think twice about the piece of paper with a list of en­riching courses before you commit yourself to a year of unuseful courses.

From the words of a great philosopher, "Second chances don 't always come in pairs!"

Well .. . so much for logic.

March 22, 1979

By Colin Campbell

It is embarrassing to admit you can't make ah eleven o'clock appointment because you have to see "All My Children", or that you arrived late at a party because you had to see what trashy Lucy Ewing was doing on "Dallas". Shows such as "Love Boat" and "Fantasy Island" , tllat have no reedemable value at all, induce a heavy hypnotic trance that prevents you from turning the dial, even though you hate yourself for it!

The best comedy presently on t.v . is in the form of commercials . I wonder how an actor feels when after years of mastering .his craft , he winds up as a bunch of grapes on an underwear commercial. How would you like to play straight man to a sassy tub of margarine, or be the waitress in a dog food diner?

If I ever give up television, it will be during a telethon, where the host begs me to fork over , while subjecting me to a steady diet of third class entertainment. Even our cat , (Adedicatedwatcherfrom the top of the set) goes to sleep when one of these events is tuned in . So think about it before you switch on your set, television could be controlling your life. Now, if you will excuse me I have to go. It's time for "Charla's Angels"!

Parents responsible for attendance by Cathy Thompson

Whose responsibility is it that students come to school from 7:45 to 2:15, the parents or the administration?

That is a controversial question which was put to school board members, Captain Shreve's principal, and parents. Most were in agreement that it is the parents' duty to make sure their kids are in school.

One parent, when asked if the parents are responsible for their child's attendance, said, "We as parents would hope our children would have a desire to remain in school, but if not, I beleive it is the responsiblity of the parent to encourage a child to attend school because kids will be frustrated in our world today without education." Another parent rep! ied, "It is a parent's responsibility to establish a standard . or pattern for life, which should begin in infancy. Poor self-discipline in a high school student has begun much earlier than the high school stage."

When a parent was asked if the administration spent too much time "baby-sitting", he answered, "A certain amount of

attention has to be paid to 'babysitting' because some kids would take advantage if we did not have rules to follow ."

Corinne Taylor, school board member from District 5, also had this viewpoint, which was clearly shown by her statement, "It is important to keep students in school. It is better to take the trouble now or they will go out in the world ignorant." She went on to say that many kids don't know what they are doing and many of their problems are from the lack of parent's counseling."

Also, fellow school board member, Leslie Jones of District 8 said, "It would be wonderful if . students could be self­motivated to come to school ... It's a sign of maturity when they can, but unfortunately, not all students are mature." She continued by saying that when the student isn't self-motivated then it's the duty of the parent to support kids and then the kids tend to do better. She also said, "As a parent, I think some parents have fallen down on their jobs . . . if the parents don't support them and the students aren't self-motivated then we must do something."

What's the answer to the problem of keeping students in school? More regulations? "People should make · the effort to come to school without stricter regulations" commented Powell. Leslie ·Jones replied, "We keep searching for an answer and for a better way." Corinne Taylor said that maybe EXCEL was the answer because "it is to bring teachers and parents together" to help the administration with their load.

Juvenile violence increasing by Leechia Jacobs

In Louisiana , a Caddo Parish high school youth was shot by a classmate as the resu It of a personal feud between the two. Before the end of the school year , some 9,000 students will be assaulted inside school buildings .

In Illinois as expelled fourteen­year-old boy returns to his former school. According to police, he pulls out two guns , shoots the principal to death and wounds the assistant principal and teacher . This year more than 70,000 teachers will be kicked, stabbed or punched in the U.S .

have been the increasing of stronger discipline and school security. Because vandal ism related repairs have become a major budget item , most school districts have taken steps to reduce "targets of opportunity" by hiring special guards , installing detection devices and placing dogs inside buildings to guard against breakins.

Since teenagers spend a great deal of their time in schools, schools have become the setting for much of the growing teen violence and vandalism. Attacks on teachers, shake downs and hall rapes have become common news stories not just in the nation's inner city schools, but in quiet towns and prosperous suburbs.

Are teachers safe? More than 70,000 teachers

are physically assaulted every year in the classrooms and hall­ways of schools. Among the nation's one million secondary schopl teachers 5,200 are physically assaulted every year, 1 ,000 of whom are seriously injured and more than 6,000 are victims of robbies.

A science teacher in a Brooklyn, New York high school was severly beaten by a gang of teenage students and had to be hospitalized . Not long ago, a tenth grader in Long Island quarreled with his teacher, went home, got a rifle, came back and killed her. Incidents such as these and some even worse occur many times each day in schools across the country.

Student selected Senior Hersy Jones has been

selected by the Captain Shreve Student Council as the Student of the Month for March.

Jones is the president of Student Council and has been a senator in preceding years. As a member of Black Studies he serves as vice-president, and also participates in the Fellow­ship of Christian Athletes and plays varsity football. Jones served as Secretary of State and City Attorney at Pelican State.

In California four boys swept all books from library shelves with a fire hose and mashed every instrument in the music room. The total cost resulting _ from school vandalism this year will exceed $600 million, an annual figure that would supply school books for the entire nation.

In addition to vandalism and assaults on teachers, schools are plagued with some 12,000 armed robbies a year, 270,000 burglaries, 204,000 cases ot assaults and even murder. And shocking as they are they are not enclosed incidents. The number of murders that take place on school campuses exceed one hundred a year.

Bright, colorful, sexy and bazaar. These are just a few of the many words which can be used in describing the new spring tine of clothes for 1979.

"Colors that clashed together last year are in style for the season. Teal blue is seen a lot with colors such as deep purple, bright orange or pale grey. It gives everything a whole new look," commented Gaye Steven­son at Goldring's.

Solid colors in your basics (such as your pants and skirts) are usally seen with the bright tops. Stick to the pale yellows, greens, blues, or neutrals in your basics. Yet, if you really want to be wild and crazy they are wearing the varied colored tops to give a whole new dimension to fashion.

Fashions from the 1940's with its big side slits in dresses, v-necks, big belts and two piece suits are seen once again for this season's dresses . And remember the skinny little belts used in the fall have now been replaced with the wide and tailored leather belts.

Fifteen students learn iournalistic techniques

by Karen Rosengrant Conventions can be simultan­

eously fun , frustrating , tiring and interesting as f ifteen Captain Shreve journalism students recently discovered.

The students , accompanied by Gaye Gannon , newspaper staff advisor , attended the seventh annual Southern Inter­scholastic Press Association (SIPA) convent ion at the University of South Carolina ·on March 8-10 in order to learn more about the field of journalism .

The Captain Shreve students primarily attended classes in the newspaper-newmagazine category , but there were also four other categories : yearbook, literary folk magazine , photo­journalism and radio-film­television.

Some of the sessions they went to were on news writing , opinion writing, in depth reporting, graphics and interview ing .

The Enterprise

Price places first in fair; next competition-internationals

Senior Steve Pr ice , whb recently won second place overall and f irst place in the physics division of t he Reg ion I Science Fair held at Bossier Parish Community College , will now advance to the state competition before participating in the Inter­national Science Fair in · San Antonio.

Price , who received top honors for his project , "The Minto Wheel ", which utilizes heat energy to produce motion , received a $25 savings bond and the all-expense paid trip to the international fair this spring . There he will compete with other students from around the world . His first place award on this

project is wnar won him a place at the San Antonio fair.

Out of the many CS students who part icipated in the school­wide and regional science fairs , five rece ived f irst place awards , two won second place , and four captured th ird place honors .

Other CS science students who won in the regional science fair include: First places­EI izabeth Reeder , Behavioral science; Danny Talley, botany ; Sharon Freeman , chemistry ; Robert Robichaud, microbiology; Second place-Pam Davis , physics ; and Anna Latham , zoology, Third places-Janie Black, behavorial science; Murray Allen , engineering ;

The conventioners were Amy Brossette, Karen Coe , Layna Cook, Missy Falbaum , Lucretia Gandy , Shawn Grammer , David Henington, Leechia Jacobs, Christy Jones, LaDonna Morton , Jan Rivet, Karen Rosengrant , Lisa Rothell, Nikki Saxon, and Dan Spivey .

Given a chance to examine the pu bl icat ions of the other schools , the srudents were able to discuss problems and share ideas. A particularly helpful and interesting part of the con­vention was a critiquing session of each of the school pub I ications with Jose Quevedo and Professor Dennis Jones.

Officers, cheerl~ders sought Scott Doyle, engineering; and Cliff Smith , physics .

Faculty sponsors for the school wide and regional fairs were Tom Branim, Barbara Hamilton, Otto Sellers and Tony Kauffman . One of the sponsors will probably accompany Price on his trip to San Antonio.

Between 400 and 600 students attended the convention . Most of these students were from South Carolina and neighboring states, with Captain Shreve and a school from West Monroe as the only Louisiana represent­atives.

At the convention the students participated in many activities . During the mornings and after­noons , each student was required to attend at least two classes .

Besides the classes , the students attended a banquet, where the vice president of CBS studios spoke , and a disco dance the last night.

Another highlight was an unexpected interview in the hotel lobby March 9 with tennis star, John Newcombe, who had played a tennis match the previous evening on the college campus. Newcombe eagerly answered the future journalists' numerous questions and posed for many photographs as he casually ate an apple.

At the closing of the con­vention there was an award ceremony in which many of the schools attending were presented cerfiticates. The Captain Shreve Enterprise was given a certificate bearing the rating of superior for their classes .

This was the second year for journalism students from Cap­tain Shreve to go to the conven­tion . All of the students who attended the convention have or will be a member of the news­paper staff .

Icing on the Wrestlers wanted · cake for Tigers

by Larry Anderson Wrestling has finally arrived

at Captain Shreve and the main question is can it survive?

by Pat Booras As of this writing on Sunday,

March 11, Dale Brown and his LSU Fighting Tigers are sitting pretty in the thick of things at the NCAA Tournament .

How can this be? Granted, LSU has lost 2 great players this season in 6'7" Durand Macklin, and 6'9" Dewayne Scales . Mack I in's year ended after an injury in the second game of the season, while he was averaging some 23 points per game, whereas Scales made his abrupt exit after talking to an agent, Andrew Benson, who offered him a pro contract some­where in the neighborhood of $1 million. No, Scales didn't turn pro. He was suspended by Brown, who felt it would be in the best interest of the squad if DeWayne didn't make the trip to the NCAA Tournament. Besides talking business with the agent, Scales Clllegedly shunned the rest of his teammates in both the Mississippi St., and Kentucky games, so he could show the scout he would be a good ballhandler in the NBA. As a result the Bengals lost for the first time this season in "Deaf Valley" to the Bulldogs, and were completely humiliated by the Kentucky Wildcats in the semifinals of the SEC Tournament . Scales was averaging 22 points per game before his suspension.

The reason I think the Tigers are sitting pretty in the tourney is because whatever they do from now on will be "icing on the cake". After all, how many other teams could lose a superb player like Durand Macklin, whose stats were 23 points and 10 rebounds a game, and still win the SEC.

Dale Brown kept telling every­one during the season that he couldn't understand how the Bengals were playing so well without their star forward, but deep down he must've known LSU was by far the best team in their conference. Now Scales is gone and the Tigers are really dark horses.

The team has been and is made up of a very different group of people . Macklin used to go out on the court and do his talking with his playing ability,

while Scales did it with his abilities, actions on and off the c0urt, and mouth. Scales often­times would laugh at the official when he was whistled for a foul. Then there is Greg "Cookie Man" Cook who has been falsely called by many journalists a "thug", and bald-headed freshman, Gus Rudolph, better known as "Kojak".

AI Green, Lionel Green,

According to Stan Powell, principal, there are 3 things that will determine whether or not wrestling will remain at Shreve. They are, (1) interest, (2) a coach willing to .spend time with the players, and (3) equipment. There is only one piece of equipment used in wrestiing. That being a mat, but according to Powell that mat can range any­where from 3000 to 4000 dollars. Jordy Hultberg, Ethan Martin

and Rick Mattick make up the rest of the Tigers who helped LSU win its first conference crown in 25 years. Their players probably have little unimportant intracacies also, but they just haven't been brought out, yet. Who else could lead these bunch of clowns besides the head clown himself, Dale Brown.

SECOND BASEMAN COREY COSTELLO waits for the ball as an oncoming runner charges ln.

"Wrestling is new to us in this part of the state" said Powell "How far we will go with it I don't know. I just wanted to see if there was interest in the school. I have never had any­body interested in coaching it before and that explains why we haven't had it. Recently however, it came to my attention that there was a high school coach who was interested."

Gators start season slowly

The clown and his clown, no matter what anyone says have one heck of a team, and are only four games away from a national championship.

Another thing for certain is that Dale Brown has done a great snow job on opposing players and coaches for the last 26 games of the season, saying the Tigers shouldn't be winning. If Brown can keep it up for four more games, I say more power to him and his talented squad .

by Pat Booras When the CS baseball team

began this season head coach Albert Leviston knew the Gators would have little experience re­turning to the diamond for the '79 campaign. He hoped Shreve could get a few breaks early in the season that would give his players confidence in winning . Unfortunately, it just hasn't happened, and CS is off to its worst start ever at 0-5, 0-2 in district play.

Following a 7-3 loss to Wood­lawn, CS traveled to play a game against Fair Park in which the Indians squeaked out a 2-1

Tennis team off and running by Larry Anderson

Winning has become a habit for the CS tennis team and anybody will tell you it's not a bad one to get into. The Gators are 6-0 for the season following routs over Southwood, 15-0, Natchitoches, 14-1, Jesuit , 7-2, Byrd, 16-2, Longview, 16-2, and the latest victim of the powerful Gator netters, Neville, 11-3.

Coach Lee Hedges, who hopes the road to victory doesn't get cut short along the way, said this about the tennis team, "We have an outstanding team , and many good players. I am very pleased with their performance up to date." .

Judging from the outcome of the matches with the other

;;chools one has to wonder if the competition is that bad or are the Gators that good. The obvious answer is the Gators are good. Coach Hedges said they had some good matches among the Natchitoches and Jesuit boys, and Byrd girls, but when it comes down · to holding up with CS there doesn 't seem to be a team around that can. After all the girls have won the state championship the last 5 years and the boys haven't been that far behind. Hedges commented on the team's chances of reaching the state tournament, "I think we have a good chance to win the girls and probably the boys if we just put it all to­gether."

Next the Gators entertained Ouachita and were edged, 6-5. Neal Carter laced 4 singles in the contest going 4 for 5.

After CS was no-hitted and lost 7-0 to Bossier, they faced Parkway and were defeated 10-5. Corey Costello went 2 for 4 and broke the all-time hit record of 44 hits in a career with two singles, while Johnathan Muslow banged out a couple of hits, including a long homerun. How­ever, poor fielding led to Shreve's doom .

"The little things that we've done wrong so far this season have cost us our first five ball­games, says Albert Leviston. We've made a lot of physical mistakes, but the mental errors we've committed have been hard to overcome. If we can re­bound, 1 think we'll play well from here on out."

Interested and Knowledgable indeed is James Brown, a new teacher at CS. Having wrestled in a Pennsylvania high school for 4 years, Brown had scholar­ships offered, but never accepted them.

Brown said so far their just trying to get a feel on the level of interest in the school and that he has already had 30 to 35 boys sign up, most of them coming from the football and track teams in the 150 lb. bracket and up, but could always use more, especially below 150 lb. "We encourage anybody who is interested in a good clean in­dividual sport to come and try out," said Brown .

Oil- Real Estate

by Corey Costello Once again Shreve has

produced a really tough tennis team led by two outstanding seniors, Doug Hedges and Lauren Cotter. Hedges, who recently defeated Robert Dunkleman , 6-4 , 6-4 , sums Shreve's team up this way. "Overall we have an excellent team with good depth in the boys and an awesome girls team. The girls will win the state champion­ship and the boys have an excellent chance to win state also . "

It 's no wonder that Doug is

such a good player , for he has nine years of competitive tennis under his belt , and he still practices two hours everyday at Riverside Swim and Tenn is Club. Hedges plans to major in business at LSU-S for his first year of college, but later wants to give college tenn is a shot at Louisiana Tech University or Centenary College .

Cotter , who has been playing tennis for eight years , plays because she likes the com­pet it ion . " I like tennis because it is a challenge for me . I set a goal

DOUG HEDGES AND LAUREN COTTER are two of the top contenders on this year's team. Recently, Cotter accepted a scholarship from SMU.

and I work towards that goal . Also , I am a competitive person and tennis is a very com­petitive sport ."

Lauren , who is in her third year of tennis at Shreve, practices very hard everyday at Pierremont Oaks Tennis Club. She sometimes gets discouraged after playing poorly in a match , but always realizes how much tennis means to her , and works a little harder . "Sometimes I get so discouraged, I'd like to quit , but I know how hard I 've worked and how much time and money I 've put into tennis and I realize how much I really like the sport. "

Although Cotter recently lost a close match to Byrd's Wendy Dehan , she is very optimistic about her play and the team's play . " I think our team is really tough this year. There are some underclassmen who are really becoming strong players . I am also looking forward to playing Wendy again ."

Lauren recently was offered a full scholarship from SMU . in Dallas . " I accepted it and I 'm looking forward to going there. That's always been my dream ."

concerned about their lack of consistency , "We usually have two or three shooting low scores for every match. However, it is not the same two or three players all the time."

If the CS golfers can improve their consistency, it is very l ikely they will do well in the state tournament , April 26-27 , in Monroe.

vocals of Robert Halford. Hell Bent for Lethear surpasses last year's Stained Class in song content, and 1975's Sad Wings of Destiny in production quality. Downing and Tipton work together more than before, giving Priest a more harmonious, intricate sound.

Les Sinks' drumming has improved greatly since Stained Class, his first album with the band. He ventured into more varied rhythms, backing the bass lines of lan Hill with a fine example of power rock drumming . Halford has left the never-ending screams of earlier albums in the past , choosing now to sing a little lower, but still effectively . Tipton has taken on more singing duty than before, and has proven himself a good vocalist and a much improved guitarist .

The lyrics are good, but the music is great. "Burning Up" and "Hell Bent for Leather" drive with conviction seldom before heard on a Priest disc. "Take on the World" brings Queen's "We Will Rock You" to mind with the over powering drum beat and the sing-along chorus, but it is still one of the record's best cuts .

"Hell Bent for Leather " is a product of maturity on the part of Judas Priest. The guitars, vocals, and rhythm section have come together on their fifth album, instead of the more separated sounds of their earlier albums. Now they play together as a team, a necessary element for any band that plans on going anywhere .

by David Hanington The laughter is non-stop when

six women and one minister try to break up an organized crime ring, in the Walt Disney movie, The North Avenue Irregulars.

The Buena Vista release stars Edward Herrmann, cloris Leachman, Karen Valentine, and Susan Clark. As the movie beings, Reverend Mike Hill (Hermann) comes as the new minister of North Avenue Presbyterian Church. Immediately catastrophe begins and doesn't stop until the end of the movie. Reverend Hill has many plans to get the members of the church involved. His first mistake is giving the church's sinking fund to an Old Irish couple he immediately bet the $1200 on a horse race.

rTake Down' lifts spirits

It is a rare treat to see a movie that lifts our spirits like Take Down , which is presently showing at Eastgate Cinema.

Jingo Junction lost in every sport, until enough interest was gathered to start a wrestling team. The co'ach is an English teacher working on his doctorate with a job pending at Harvard. He doesn't know anything about wrestling, and his team members are aware of it .
