FRANCES CHOP NINE TEEN E N OUR PRESIDENTS DR EDWIN O. WARE Dr. Edwin 0. Ware, one of the founders of Louisiana College, was elected first president of the school June 4, 1908. He was a member of a committee ap­ pointed by the Louisiana liaptist Convention to locate and found the school. He resigned after one year. Later he was professor of English and also financial agent while the institution was in the formative years. He was a member of the Board of Trustees until his death. DR. W. C. FRILEY Dr. W. C. Friley, second president of Louisiana College, was elected April 15, 1909 and resigned April 26. 1910. He was a native of Mississippi and came to Louisiana as state evangelist in 1878. Louisiana College became coeducational at the insistance of Dr. Frilay. DR. CLAYBROOK COTTINGHAM Dr. Claybrook Cottingham, third president of Louisiana College, was a Vir­ ginian. He had been a member of the faculty at Mount Lebanon, and also was president of that institution when il was merged with Louisiana College in 1906. He came to Pineville with the College and was one of the three first faculty members. He was elected president June 10. 1910, and he served a total of thirty-one years. Under the statesmanlike leadership of President Cot­ tingham the College grew steadily from a small, insecure beginning to a well established institution. When Dr. Cottingham resigned in 1951 the school was out of debt. The property was valued at 8750.000.00 and the endowment was $325,000.00. DR. EDGAR GODBOLD Dr. Edgar Godbold, fourth president of Louisiana College, was elected in 1942 and resigned in September. 1951. Dr. Godbold's first connection with Louisiana College was in the position of financial agent to raise $100,000.00 endowment in 1912. Godbold Hall was erected with funds raised by Godbold in a whirl-wind campaign in 1917. World War II was going on when Dr. God­ bold became president. During the difficult days of the war the new president led the College in an inspiring manner. In 1948 Louisiana College had the largest enrollment in her history. A campaign for increased endowment raised it over a million dollars. Many of President Godbold's plans for enlargement were carried out after his retirement. AND PRESENT PRESIDENTS MESSAGE We all want to remember our friends and to be remembered by them. With the passing of the years your yearbook will increase in value. I extend warm congratulations and ap­ preciation to the editors of the 1957 PINE KNOT for their services in preserving for us in such an attractive volume photographs of our associates, .scenes of the campus, and high­ lights of various college activities. Sincerely, G. EARL GUINN THIS IWAS LOUISIANA COLLEGE Louisiana College had its beginning in the hearts and minds of heroic and determined Baptist pioneers. The idea of a Christian college arose out of the dire need for trained Christian leaders both lay and ministerial. "A new day would arrive in Baptist affairs in Louisiana." they said, "if this great need could be met." Thus the underlying need prompted the declaration of purpose as stated in Article III of the Charter of Louisiana College and which reads in part: ''The objects and purposes of this corporation shall be to own, oper­ ate and conduct a college or colleges, in or near the town of Pineville. Louisi­ ana, and to foster Christian education, in all of its branches, in the State of Louisiana, under the auspices of the Baptist denomination." YESTERDAY LOU L SI ANA COLLEGE TODAY As Louisiana College celebrated its fiftieth anniversary this year, the laying of the cornerstone of Tudor Hall, the new boys' dormitory, symbolized the present state of the institution. Louisiana College is a growing college, and the administration and faculty, with the support of Louisiana Baptists, will develop the Institution to university status by 1970. Louisiana College continues to offer its students the Christian education needed in the modern world. Every year, hundreds of its graduates find their places of service in our society. $71 r • \ < ••" •%: - . -> ' of1*--' LJL ff '4? •? *$ wtm* m •9*3.'^'** '^•••"•••'••••h _ • . OURS I D GREAT HERITAGE Although its establishment was fairly recent, the roots of Louisiana College are grounded in antiquity. Louisiana College was founded in the humanistic tradition of Christian education, and the institution owes a debt to early Christian educators and reformers. The founding fathers of this college held to the ancient idea that education and Christianity arc compatible, that knowledge makes it possible for man to lead a more noble life, that Christ's servants must be thinking, creative, and imaginative human beings. Louisiana College is justly proud of its Christian heritage and of its leaders through the years. AND CONFIDENTLY WE LOOK TO THE FUTURE PROFESSOR PIERRE VALMONT BLANCHARD The staff of the 1957 Pine Knot assumes a great amount of pleasure in dedicating this yearbook to Professor Pierre Valmont Blanchard. Professor Blanchard came to Louisiana College in 1936. During his tenure here, he has been a very real asset to the college and to the community. tic has promoted the advancement of cultural activities in the Alcxandria- Pineville area, and in recent years he has been responsible for the success of the "Louisianians." As a teacher. Professor Blanchard possesses qualities which have endeared him to several generations of students. He is superb as a musician. He is kind and patient and always demonstrates an under­ standing of the students' point of view. He has been a true friend to all of us. The lives that have been touched by the beneficient influence of Professor Blanchard are an enduring monument to his work among students. "irsf Row. Left to Right: Ward, Heaver, West, White, Walker.

Secretary I SUNDAY SCHOOL BOARD OF THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE FOREWORD Southern Baptists have made history in the collection of data on churches during 1950. For the first time since the Department of Sur­ vey, Statistics, and Information was formed in 1920, a report has been received from every association for work done in the churches during the current year. This record involves work done by multiplied thou­ sands of organization’s secretaries and church clerks. Primary credit must go to the work done by the associational clerks and the state statistical officers. Reports received from Southern Baptist churches are classified in four different groups: open country churches; churches located in villages of less than 500 population; churches located in towns with Copyright, 1951 500-2500 population; and churches located in cities with more than BROADMAN PRESS 2500 population. These classifications are also separated according to Nashville, Tennessee the number of preaching services held each month, since experience has shown that there is a positive correlation between the number of service, the location of the*church and the record reported.

The tenninal dates of the study are 1893, when interest in a centrally-located Baptist college under control of the Convention first developed, and 1956, when Louisiana College completed its first half­ century. Primarily a study of Louisiana College, which was the focal point of the Convention's educational enterprise, the project also in­ cludes consideration of Acadia Academy, a high school organized in 1917; Dodd College, a junior college for gi;c:ls, which ope;rated from 1927 to 1942; and two older institutions, Mount Lebanon Baptist College and Keachie Female College, both of which ceased to exist by 1912. No at­ tempt is made to cover educational activities, such as Sunday School or training programs, which are operated directly by churches. l would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the assistance and guidance given me by the following members of my advisory committee: Dr. Theodore L.
