Paranoid students sit clinging to stacks of books as if protecting them from some unknown danger. The cause of these disturbing transformations is none other than the dreaded - research paper, which attacks and corrupts students of all ages like a disease. Symptoms of the so called, "Research paperitus" include loss of sleep, crippling pain in the hands, and a constant shivering of the body from an overdoes of No-Doz and aspirin. However, all of the symptoms are not physical. Juniors and seniors develop a leary, schizophrenic attitude towards anyone who comes near them for fear that they might have the same topic and attempt to take away a needed book or magazine. Freshmen and sophomores suffer from secondary affects of the disease. They are constantly seen staring through the windows of the library or hanging around the doors trying to get in, as they are usually barred from entering when masses of upperclassmen converge on every table and chair available. Not only does this widespread disease affect students at Shreve, but it occurs in every high school in Caddo Parish. Because of a decree by the Caddo Parish School Board, all seniors in Caddo Parish must complete research papers in the third nine weeks of school. During this period of time, books are virtually impossible to find even at public and area college libraries. "Research paperitus" hits hard and has awesome effects, yet the disease can be treated .

Radio One. A slogan often heard on Shreveport's KOKA-AM that not only describes the station's status among the city's broad­ casters, but aiSQ describes the attitude of KOKA's program direc­ tor, Sunrose Ruttledge. Ruttledge, better known as Gay Poppa, pulls the morning drive shift on KOKA. His "laid back" relaxed inflection on the air brings an air of calmness to an otherwise busy morning show. Even in the studio itself, "Gay Poppa" maintains an air of relaxation, while many announcers put full concentration into a show without any diversion of attention . Ruttledge keeps things under control as he performs other tasks such as answering phones or cueing records. Coming from Birmingham, Ala., he has worked full time at Gay Poppa, program director of KOKA radio station, answers listeners' questions ·about the KOKA for 21 years. "When I first came to Shreveport in the fifties, "men in blue" who are out to get those "8:30 folks" on their way to work. I didn't see much here," he says as he lights a long menthol ciga­ rette. However, after 21 years here, he considers Shreveport his hometown after making a home for his family and sending his child through school.
