1964 Raconteur

This is your book, your story- it covers a span of time in your life which is small but a scope which is large. It is the story of Bakersfield College.

A Raconteur is a French storyteller, and indeed your Raconteur is telling a very important story. A story about an important port of your life. Within its covers lie your hopes and dreams, your successes and failures.

Your life is but in the molding here, you are being prepared for the complicated world which you will enter when you leave Bakersfield College. A life which will be complex, a world of science and technology which will make your hectic days here seem like a moment of brief rest. You will look bock upon your years here and see the preparation that took place, how your classes and teachers used science for your enrichment.

Whether you majored in the Humanities or Physics, art or mechanics your preparation has been scientific, as our world is scientific. This then is a capsule summary of that preparation. A montague look at your life here. Your preparation has been fast and effcient, brief and complete. Whether you transfer to another institution of preparation or go into the world directly, you will fall back on your education here.

The life of science, and the science of life- this is the story of Bakersfield College, and this is that story.

The very fact that st udents ore in college indicates a genuine concern for the future. It also indicates a willingness to accept and achieve change. Future developments with­ in t he preview of college students hove never been more intriguing. College students con be assured that history and the other social sciences, literature, and the arts will continue to be concerned with exom1nmg human values. Surely, science with all its ramifications will be increasingly involved with these some values.

There is increasing evidence that Burns L. Finlinson the thoughtful minds of the future will be more dedicated to analyzing the course of human betterment. I trust that all t hose who ore and who will become port of Bakersfield Col­ lege will read the post with under­ standing, envision the future with on imaginative mind, and act deliber­ ately and wisely as individuals to im­ prove mankind's fortunes.

320 square foot mosaic, which is located on the Science and Engineer- ing building. This multi-colored creation blends with the futuristic ironwork on the Art building some two hundred yards away.

The mosaic was designed and created by Miss Patricia O'Connor, ''Jl who graduated in 1963. She was assisted by about twenty other art students, and together they spent over 240 hours on the project. The finished product is composed of ten 4' x 10' plywood boards Art which were coated with resin and covered with thousands of bits of mosaic tile. It was designed to be pertinent to the subject matter taught in the building on which it hangs. 73 Raconteur

The Renegade Rip is the official weekly newspaper of the Associated Student Body. The paper is put out by a frantic, indus­ trious ond conscientious collection of jour­ ndistic motley moguires. Amid the mod chaos of cutlines, editor­ ials, feature stories, and dummy sheets, there glowed a spark of order and guided effort in the Rip Office-the editorial staff. Editorial llaff: Jim Haynel, Dione Healy. Penny Kellogg, and Virginia Brown. And then there were the deadlines. T ues­ doy and Wednesday nights found the Rip office abound with talk, cigarette smoke, music, coffee cups, impossible noise and late copy. Much to the delight of its read­ ers, the weekly campus tabloid always Alan Audin, businen manager Richard Jones, advisor seemed to meet the omnipresent deadline. Finding parking space in the "B" lot, waging tribal warfare on a local DJ, listen­ ing to their LP collection, and playing in­ tramural football were just a few of the Rip's other activities. Along with the copy each week, the Rip also actively participated in the Student Government. The Rip had· representatives on the Activities Board and the Board of Representatives and participated in the Nominating Convention. All-in-oll the Renegade Rip was able to wrap up another year able to soy that it hod served the students of Bakersfield Col­ lege with a good, well-informed paper.

Bokersf1eld College has long been known for o Drama deportment not only excelling on on educational level, but on on entertain­ ment one as well. Appreciative audiences not only enjoyed the excitement of major productions, but were owed and stimulated by the arresting ideas of "theatre of the absurd." The scope was further broadened by on original ploy of great local interest by faculty director Fronk Wottron. The out­ door theatre presented Shakespearean theatre to the public for the first time and showed that classical as well as experiment­ al theatre was of timely value. The motto that "all the world's a stage" proved to be the theme of this season's dramatic output. It was invigorating and versatile and most important of all, expressed the spirit of the times to the student and the community.

At Bakersfield College the Newman Club par­ ticipated actively in Homecoming by making a float, it sponsored one of the top intramural bas­ ketball teams, and it hod its own booth at the annual Spring Carnival. These and many other things were on the agenda of the Newman Club this year and there ore many more in store for the years to come.

GaYds

The "GoYds" is one of the newest club~ on campus and is also the only YMCA of­ filiated club at Bakersfield College. One of the reasons "GaYds" was organized was to promote interest in student government, which has been woefully lacking in the past few years. Since it was organized in Oc­ tober, 1963, five "GoYds" members hove already been elected to positions on the Boord of Representatives.

In doing these and other activities, "GoYds" is striving to encourage the en­ tire student body to participate in student government. This experience is fun and con be useful in later life. BC Medics

The BC Medics is a new club iust organized on campus this year. The Medics is a combination, special interest-community service club. It caters to those mature students who are planning a future in medicine, and at the some time, it works for the betterment of Bakersfield through various types of community service.

UCCF

The United Campus Christian Fellowship consists of members of the United Brethren, Congregation­ al, Christian, and Presbyterian churches. At the weekly 7:30 breakfast meetings, they hove guest speakers from various churches and religious or­ ganizat ions. During the year, the club participates in the Homecoming activities and the Spring Car­ nival. This year they shared on award in the Home­ coming Float competition with SCTA and the As­ sociation for Exceptional Children.

The purpose of the BC Republican Club is to promote Republican principles, to promote interest in political affairs, and to educate interested peo­ ple in the values of logical and democratic prac­ tical policies. This year the club has been successful and has sponsored such speakers on campus as Joe Shell, Richard Stiern, John Rousselot, and Barry Gold­ water, Jr. The club represented Bakersfield College at the mock notional Republican nominating convention in San Francisco.

Jim Morgan become the first President of the group with Mr. Thomas as advisor and Mr. Garrett as assistant advisor. The purposes of the club ore to inform the student body about the ideals and activities of the Democratic Party, as well as pro­ vide active support to candidates and ideas in notional, state and local governments with which the club is in agreement. In order to further these aims the club sponsors speakers, discussions and campus and community activities. While the club is affiliated with no other organizations, members ore urged to become active as individuals in both political and social activities. Student Forum

The Student ~orum offers students on opportu­ nity to discuss in detail all sides to controversial sub­ jects. The Student Forum does not aim at making specific conclusions or offering solutions, but aims to probe to the very essence of problems. Through these discussions, it is hoped that students will be stimulated to a more lively participation and in­ terest in local, notional, and international issues.

Gades International

In its first year of existence, the Godes Interna­ tional strove to solidify its aims of encouraging travel and school spirit through participation in campus government. Selecting charter members, gathering student travel information, joining the U.S. Student Travel Association, and organizing cor caravans to the out of town football games were some of their many club activities. Plans were also mode to establish branch chapt ers at such colleges as UCSB, Sacramento State, San Jose, UCLA, UCB. Spring Carnival

A whirlwind of fun was created by popping balloons, eggs filled with confetti crushing against the heads of friends, garters falling off the legs of pretty girls, flying pies landing in the faces of ASB presidential can­ didates and other unprepared per­ sons. Men stuffed with chocolate coke, lemon pie, divinity, cokes, grope snow cones, cinnamon candied ap­ ples and mustard Ioden hot dogs. Girls were sold as slaves and aft­ erwords dragged their owners to the marriage booth. The clean-up committee who hod to clean up the remainders of a day full of fun did not mind because the Spring Carnival was o success. Getting their diplomo-o tool for the future.

Graduation

Graduating sophomores step from the shadows of the post into the light of the future. Graduation marks the culmination of a lot of hard work combined with num­ erous activities. For most sophomores, graduation means more than commencement rehearsal, Bac­ calaureate, the Sophomore Honor Brunch ond Raconteur distribution-it means the taking on of new responsibilities. For some students, June 6 designates the end of their formal education and for others it is the beginning of future education. Along with many memories and o brood smile of accomplishment comes the proud feeling of being o Bakersfield College graduate.

Coach Bob Covey, in his first year as Bakers­ field College cross country coach, sow his charges finish a good third in the conference finals behind champion Son Diego and second place El Camino and fourth in conference dual meet competition. The league slate of 4 wins, 3 losses was splattered with numerous excellent performances by Bill An­ drews, the top 'Gode runner, and number two man Keith Dailey. Andrews set several course records before being hampered by a leg injury in the lost few meets. Fan interest, as in most of the sports in 1963-64, was higher than ever before for the harriers, but unfortunately there was only one BC home meet. In that meet, against Long Beach and LA Volley, Andrews was at his best, winning by over 75 yards. Other members of the team, who always gave good performances too, were Bob Scott, Rudy Raimer, Don Cote and Carlos Ozuna.

However, Coach Jim Turner was not alto­ gether dissat isfied. Fan attendance was the highest BC water poloists hove ever en­ joyed, and whereas southland high schools hove water polo teams, none in the BC dis­ trict carry the sport. Boyer led the squad in quarters played with 61, while Mayo scored 70 goals to lead the team in that deportment. Besides Mayo, Prosser, Boyer, and Gal­ lon, lettermen on the '63 squad included Alan Harrison, Richard Howard, John Chir­ rick, Bart Alford, Norm Stanley, Larry Holcomb, John Roth, and Manager Jim Spaulding.

The 1964 BC team also played host to the State meet on May 7, 8, and 9, the best-attended swim meet in recent 'Gade history.

Basketball

Bakersfield College's 1963-64 basketball team, while not t he best in the history of the school, was a highly-spirited bunch of boll players, and they gave several exciting performances, especially at home, where the crowds were larger and more vocal than normally is the case for basketball. Freshman coach Pete Nestonde, who showed himself to be a very capable young mentor, was f aced with the task of making a good team out of one sophomore and a group of freshmen. His troubles were compounded further when the lone soph., center John Rexroth, broke a toe, putting him out of several league games. Lorry Tolliver, Ed Stephens, Roy Ermigorot, Bob Stephens, Ed Newlin, Buster Moten, Paul Green, Ron Adams, and Paul Chrismon took up the slack well, and gave every indication they will be fight ing for the league championship next year.

Honk Pfister, former coach of Dennis Rolston and other fine tennis players at Bakersfield High School, where his teams were perennial South Yosemite League powers, took over the College post this yeor. This year's 'Gode team was led by let­ termen John Von Tonnigon and Richard Terrell, who were returnees from lost year's hot-and-cold squad. Top freshmen pros­ pects were George Wisham, Richard Bruce, and Mike Welty. O ther team members were Richard Wil­ mowski, Allen Snow, AI Adams, Jerry Loy, Gory Kerons, Roy Flewollen, and Allen Hodges. While season results were not available at deadline time, Coach Pfister was con­ fident of a great season.

Ben Laverty also excelled in the triple jurnp. Coach Covey, building his freshman ·studded team, felt the boys would improve and would next year be a Metro power.

142 The Renegade baseball team, under coaches Gerry Collis and Claude Gilbert, was beset by troubles early in the season, but showed promise of a late-season spurt. After 12 games, the team hod a 6-6 record. Lack of hitting and poor fielding were the pri­ mary causes of the defeats, os the pitching was acceptable. John Bryon, who hod two of the first 6 wins, was the ace of the staff, and held a wide edge in strikeout s with 19. Pete Porro and Bob Limi also appeared ready for fine seasons . In the batting deportment, centerfielder Paul Anderson led the squad with a .316 overage, while Steve Rojas, the first baseman, was second with a .310 mark. Ed Means led in runs batted in with 14.

Gory Atkins, John Moore, Ed Bougher, and Robin Mosley. The golfers' home course was Bakersfield Coun­ try Club, and they appeared especially adept at winning there.

146 Intramural The 1963-64 Intramural program was one of the biggest and best in the history of Bakersfield College. Under full-time Director of Intramural A thletics Wid Trussler, who stepped down as tennis coach to accept the demanding posit ion, t he Intramural leagues boosted such sports as flog foot­ ball, golf, table tennis, basketball, volley­ ball, bowling, and softball. The Spanish Club Druryloners were the power in nearly all t he outdoor sports, cop­ ping the football championship by a narrow margin over the Rip-Sophomore C loss Ar­ gos, and displaying remarkable aptitude in basketball and volleyball as well. The Freshman C loss dominated bowling after a poor start.
