BALLY Dean of Instruction During this school year of 1958-59 Northeast ern has been cast in a double role—your institu tion of higher learning and your "home away from home." The student cooperation has been excellent in making for the success of both roles The faculty has striven to give good instruction and to make you feel at home. It is our hope and our prayer that you will cherish the mem ories of this year among your best. DR. WESLEY A. DENEKE Dean of Personnel As the Dean of Student Personnel, Dr. Deneke is sincerely interested in helping students to solve their problems so that their college career might achieve the greatest results. He is anxious to assist prospective students in se curing the proper housing. His office compiles a lot of personal data of each student relative to the student's background, former school experience, results of standardized tests, and any other information which might assist the faculty to better understand students. He is always interested in counseling with students about their extra-curricular activity program, about the work of the Student Senate in attaining its object ives, and helping students with whatever problems that might arise. His office is always open to students for counseling. MISS MILDRED RANDELS Dean of Women i HELEN AINGWORTH RUTH ALLISON Assistant Professor Assistant Professor Biology Art RUTH ARRINGTON L H.

The purpose of the Student Senate is to promote student participation in government; to further the spirit of unity and cooperation by unifying the student body; to interpret to the student body the regulations of the college; and to act as an intermediary between the student body and the administration. It has been a very busy year for the nineteen senators of the Student Senate. Some of the major activities in which the Senate participated are: Freshman Orientation Week Homecoming Activities Supervision of Freshman Week Parents' Day Sponsoring of College Mixers Sponsoring of Sadie Hawkins Week Pre-Christmas Activities March of Dimes Easter Egg Hunt Those who have the privilege of working in the Student Senate receive training in leadership which is not given in any course. They assume responsibility that is not assumed in any other manner. They render «il I services of a type which is unequaled. The work of the Student Senate is extremely im BATTENFIELD MUNCY OGDEN BETTIS portant.

This year we cannot complain of the "old Civil War press," for our college paper is now being printed on a Harris offset press. Mr. Jack White is in charge of the printing of the paper. We hope that you have noticed the change. We also hope that you have enjoyed the contest of the paper which is supervised by Miss Irene Morgan, director of public relations and of the journalism classes. Miss Morgan worked throughout the year to impress into the minds of the reporters the need of a "nose for news'"; we hope that we have satisfied your curiosity about the events on the campus. The first semester editor was Kenneth Ham- mons, who resigned to do his practice teaching. Associate editor was Charlene Sullivan; and Freddie Nell Jayne was the feature editor. Despite the change in some offices, two students retained staff positions throughout the year: Don Eidson was sports editor and Nancy Hogan was the staff artist. With the arrival of second semester, Barbara Masterson assumed the duties of editor and Micki Farmer became the associate editor.

A graduate of Texas Christian University, Dr. Lander played college ball in two states before transferring to the Texas school. After graduat ing from Texas Christian, Dr. Lander went to the University of Indiana where he received both his master's degree and his doctorate. At Northeastern, most of Dr. Lander's work has been with the Redman line, where he has produced some of the finest linemen in the Oklahoma Collegiate Conference.

Although Moore was on the receiving end of all of the scoring passes, Hood caught repeated tosses that added huge chunks of yardage to the Redman drives. Bob Jackson, versatile right halfback, led North eastern to the second victory of the season when the team defeated the Pumas 25-14. Jackson scored two touchdowns and passed for another in bringing Coach Harold "Tuffy" Stratton's crew the victory. Charles Moore caught Jackson's scoring toss and added six more points to the giant end's impressive scoring record. _- •i^M-rja .Hi CHARLES MOORE JIM ELLIS LYNN BURRIS End Guard Center NORTHWESTERN Long runs and lightning-quick scores were the rule of the day, and Frank Phelps set the pattern for the rest of the crew by rambling 80 yards on the first play from scrimmage for a touchdown. A few minutes later halfback Dan Smith showed his heels to the Rangers on a 70-yard punt return. Fullback Deloyd Reed scampered 42 yards in the final stanza of play for a touchdown, and Robert Jackson intercepted a pass and sped 50 yards to pay dirt in the final quarter. The Redmen romped 40-12, giving notice to Oklahoma Collegiate Conference contenders that they were out to win the conference title this year. SOUTHEASTERN The Redmen played their first home game of the season at Gable Field before 3,500 cheering moms and dads, and pleased the Parents' Day gathering by over whelming a fighting but outclassed Southeastern State College Savage team 34-0. ~x JAMES BARRETT Tackle EAST CENTRAL Northeastern went on a scoring spree in the first half that put the Tigers 27-7 in the hole at the midway point. Halfback Bob Jackson passed 15 yards to end Fred Hood for the first tally in the initial period. Phelps turned in the longest scoring jaunt of the game when he ran 48 yards in the third quarter to cross the Tigers' goal. Fullback Deloyd Reed made the longest run of the evening, however, on a spectacular 58-yard sprint that put the Northeastern eleven on the Tiger 10-yard stripe. The 33-7 conference win gave North eastern its fifth victory. SOUTHWESTERN Homecoming was the setting of Northeastern's sixth game of the season as 6,500 students and alumni gathered to watch the nation's No. 1 NAIA team wal lop a rugged Southwestern crew 34-14. sir DELOYD REED ROGER WICKERSHAM ROBERT JACKSON Fullback Guard Halfback Behind the running-passing combina tion of halfbacks Smith and Jackson the Redmen used both the airways and the ground route in blasting across the goal marker five times, passing for three TDs and running for the other two. Allen broke into the scoring column in the third quarter on a flip to end Willie Smith. Ray Judkins, alternate fullback, ran 33 yards in the closing minutes of that stanza for another score. The Red- men's last touchdown was a "grand fi nale" to their last half scoring spree. DICK GENTRY DON IRVIN WILLIE SMITH End Halfback End The first four times the Northeastern boys had the ball in their possession they fumbled and on the open ing kickoff the Langston Lions recovered one of these fumbles and crossed the Redman goal line in three plays to take a shocking early game lead. The lone second half tally came after Lynn Burris blocked a Langston punt and Willie Smith recovered on the 4- yard line. Reed bucked for 2 yards and then Jackson ran the last 2 yards to pay dirt to end the night's scoring. CENTRAL STATE For the first time since 1953 the Redmen won undis puted, clear-cut title as champions of the Oklahoma Col legiate Conference by defeating Central State College of Edmond 28-8 in a game that wasn't settled until a blistering last quarter. Skvv : MM rs3F PAUL BELL EUGENE McGIll RAY JUDKINS Guard Tackle Fullback The first quarter of play was a bruis ing defensive struggle that ended with out a score. In the second quarter, the Redmen made a "bread and butter" drive from deep in their own territory that ended in a well-deserved score by Deloyd Reed. The third quarter belonged to the Bronchos. Late in that period, the Edmond team slashed down to the 6- yard line where quarterback Jim An derson hit end J. W. Lockett for the score, giving the Broncs a later third period lead over the No. 1 rated Redmen. In the fourth quarter it happened. The Redmen pushed Central all over the field and before the closing whistle blew had added 21 more points to their side of the scoreboard. r. M t ^ M JOHNNY ALLEN WOODY NORWOOD LYLE BURRIS Quarterback Guard Halfback PITTSBURGH The final game of the 1958 season was played with a Holiday Bowl invitation in mind, and the Redmen proved that they wanted to make the trip by defeating Kansas State Teachers' College at Pittsburgh in the most decisive win of the season 40-3. Everybody had a hand in the scoring. Allen hit Willie Smith for the first score on a 6-yard pass play. Then Jackson tossed a 9-yard strike to Smith for the second tally. Phelps kicked both extra points. m **~ BOB ROBERTS PAUL STABLER BOB ROBERTS End Halfback Fullback JOE STANSELL JIM SMITH JAY POTTIGER Tackle Tackle Center Following the kickoff, the Redmen recov ered the ball and Allen hit alternate halfback Don Irvin from 25 yards out for another counter. In the fourth period little All-American guard Claude Billingsly recovered another Gorilla fumble on the 17-yard line and on the next play Smith darted through the line and swivel-hipped his way into the end zone to score. The last TD came on a Smith-to- Moore pass from the 21-yard line, and ended the 1958 Redman regular season with a 40-3 win over last year's Holiday Bowl winner.

Williams was a professional boxer for 12 years and seven of those years he held the featherweight championship in the Midwest. Williams is extremely proud of the impressive record amassed by the Redman gridders, and is doubly proud to be a part of the top rated organization. What part did he have in the team's achievements?
