ADRON DORAN Since 1954 seventh President of Morehead St.ate University Mor ehead State Univer sity F ounded in 1922, Morehead State University is a state-supported, multi-purpose university with a 455-acre campus. There are five Schools within the Univer­ sity-Applied Science and Tecnology, Educa­ tion, Humanities, Science and Mathematic3 and Social Studies. The Bachelor of Arts and B achelor of Science degrees are offered, while various graduate programs lead to the Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Music, Master of Higher Education and Master of Arts in E du­ cation degrees. Additional work may be earn­ ed beyond the Master's degree. There are more than 50 major structures on the campus with a total value estimated at more than $5,5,000,000. A $15,000,000 expan­ sion program currently is nearing completion. Five new buildings were completed in 1967. 2 The most spectacular of these is Mignon Tow­ er, a 16-story cylindrical residence hall for women, which houses 300 co-eds in 75 suites. Built at a cost of $1,540,000, the lower dom­ inates not only the campus but a complex of four residence halls for women named in honor of Mrs. Mignon Doran, wife of the president. A lso completed last year was a $1,676,000 building to house the health and physical ed­ ucation program. Named the Robert Laughlin Health Building in honor of the University's athletic director, the building features an ac­ tivities room of more than 20,000 square feet of floor space, adequate for four basket­ ball games to be played at the same time on regulation-size courts. Another $7,000,000 in construction is in fi­ nal stages. Soon to be completed will be a $3,005,000 P rofessional Education Graduate Studies Building and a $1 ,289,000 addition to Baird Music Hall. Completed earlier in the year was a $2,040 ,- 000 addition to Lappin Science Hall and a $1,200,000 Art Building, the only building of its type on a K entucky college or university campus devoted exclusively to art and ar t education. Construction also was started recently on two additional residence halls-a 19-story, 512- bed dormitory for men and a 10-story, 400-bed residence hall for women-with a total cost of $5,087,000. Both are scheduled for com­ pletion in 1969. More than 6,200 students currently attend the University and there are about 8,500 alumni. The faculty numbers more than 300 and 40 states and 23 foreign countries ai-e represented among the student b ody. All athletes on scholarships at Morehead are housed in this 132-man athletic dormitory near the Breathitt Sports Center. It was completed in 1967 at a cost of $425,000. There are 33 air­ conditioned suites, housing four men each. 3 Press - Radio - TV MOREHEAD The Morehead News ...................... W. E. Crutcher The Trail Blazer (School Paper) ....

The Eagles' most pressing concern is the lack of depth. This must be offset by rapid development of the largest group of freshmen ever signed by the University if the team is to make a noticeable bid £or the conference championship. One of the biggest gaps to be filled will be at tailback, a position left vacant by the grad­ uation of the explosive Tommy Gray. Expected to step into the breech is Lewis Rogan , a hard-running, 190-pound sophomore. Much of the Eagles' 1968 ground attack will be built around Rogan and senior fullback Otto Gsell. R ogan ath·acted considerable attention in the final 1967 game with Eastern by carrying the ball 39 times for a new OVC "times car­ ried" record and a total of 134 yards, including jaunts of 14, 10 and two of 16 yards each. Ob­ servers believe he has the potential to become one of Morehead's all-time great ground gain­ ers. Gsell, although hampered early in the '67 season by injuries, was second only to Gray in total offense with a seasonal average of 4.8 yards. The defensive unit is expected to be strong with All-OVC tackle Dave H averdick on one side and 230-pound, seasoned Jim F isher on the other. Leon Wesley, 180-pound senior and one of the fastest backs in the conference, will be at safety, in addition to occasional duty with the offense. Many question marks, however, dangle over t he gi·aduation-riddled offensive line. Of the '67 starters, only 230-pound guard Dave Moore, 205-pound end Marvin Hicks and Cen­ ter Bill Wamsley are returning, indicating dou­ ble duty for some of the more experienced Eagles, including sophomore end Gary Lister­ man, senior guard Terry H offman and sopho­ more center Steve Ward. Junior quarterback Bill Marston is expected to open the season as the Eagles' field general with help from freshman George Malone. 6 The Coaches and Team Personnel HEAD COACH J.ohn J .
