Langsdorf has been the president of California State College, Fullerton. Prior to coming to CSF he was the President of Pasadena City College (1950-59). In addition, President Langsdorf has been a visiting professor at Havard University and also at the University of California at Los Angeles. President Langsdorf believes that in order to have a fine education system you should have one that excels in many areas. At California State College, Fullerton the academic programs have reached excellence in many areas and will be continuing forward to attain even higher goals. In addition to the other achievements of CSF, the College has made a great deal of advancement in the areas of speech, drama, art, and music. Speech and the Fine Arts have been an integral and necessary part of the college atmosphere here at Cal. State. Athletics at the College have come a long way in the past few years. We now, with the advent of intercollegiate football, have twelve intercollegiate men's sports and four women's sports. President Langsdorf has been a strong supporter of the athletic program here at Cal State Fullerton. Besides his duties here on the Cal State campus, President Langsdorf belongs to many organizations for the betterment of the College and the community. 3 California State College, Fullerton opened its doors for classes in the fall of 1960. The first permanent building erected on campus was the Letters and Science Building in 1963. In the following year, 1964, the Music-Speech- Drama building was completed, and in 1965 the Physical Education building was completed and ready for use. In 1966 the Library was completed as was the Commons in 1967 and the Humanities-Social Science building and the Art Center in 1969. Completion dates on other buildings includes: the Administration building in 1970, Engineering building in 1971 and the Education building 1972. Prior to the time of these permanent buildings, classes were held at the Sunny H ills High School, the administration offices were leased from and operated out of the Fullerton Union High School for the 1959-60 school year. During the first ten years of existence, California State College. Fullerton has grown from 452 students to over 11,000. In the fall of 1970, there will be approximately 15,000 students on the campus. Enrollment is expected to surpass 30,000 students in 1978 and 35,000 students by 1980. The development of California State College, Fullerton has been closely supervised by President William B. Langsdorf. President Langsdorf and the faculty and staff are proud of Cal State's high standard of excellence in the academic field. California State College, Fullerton offers Bachelor Degrees in 30 courses of study and Masters' Degrees in 23 special fields of study. 4 For the past several football seasons I have noted each weekend the well lit football stadiums hosting literally thousands of \he great Orange County football fans andt have dreamed of the time when the Titans would come pouring out from their locker room prepared to play the outstanding teams on their schedule. Finally fantasy becomes reality-the time is now. Orange County, the center of the best schoolboy football in the United States, has its four year team. Fans will now have an opportunity to follow a boy from Pop Warner to Jr. Hig~ to Sr. High to Jr. College and now thru the final pages of his football career. To lead the first Titan team we have been fortunate to bring back one of the truly outstanding coaching names in the history of Orange County football-Dick Coury. After working with Coach Coury for over a year now, seeing his organizational skills, his professional relationship with his excellent staff composed of Joe O'Hara, Dave Jordan, Dallas Moon, Jack Stovall, and Bill Redell and most im- portant, observing his keen sense of integrity and impartiality with his student-athletes, I can only make one prediction to Titan followers in this first season-This team will play representative football I The 1970 schedule is challenging to a first year football program, but the coaches and players know that vou fans are behind them-You have always supported good footballl 5 Dick Coury becomes the first Head Football Coach in the history of Cal. State Fullerton. A 'graduate of Notre Dame University in 1951, Coury began his coaching career at the high school level in 1953 at Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California. In his nine years as the head coach at Mater Dei he won seven league championships, including C.I.F. Crowns in 1957, 1960, and 1965. In addition to his feats on the field, Dick Coury has become one of the most popular and best respected football coaches in Orange County. This has enabled him to do a truly outstanding Job in the area of recruiting throughout Orange County in particular. Following the 1965 season Coury was asked by John McKay to join the Trojan staff as the defensive coach. Coury enjoyed three excellent years at U.S.C. before moving into the professional ranks with the Pittsbu rgh Steelers. After just three months with the Steelers, Coury was sought out by Cal. State, and with the consent and blessings of the Steeler Organization he accepted. Now Dick Coury is home in Orange County where he and his wife Bonnie have reared their seven children. "1 am pleased to be the first head coach at the first four year College in Orange County to have a football program," stated Cou ry. Nbw football fans in Orange County have the oppor- tunity to support and watch a college football team coached by the most successful coach in the history of Orange County. 6 ·flfJe f)'~41t4 (()/lu4Ute ?1ad4 & ~eeeWe'U) Coach Joe O'Hara, who comes to Cal. State via Mater Dei High School, will be coaching the offensive backs and receivers. O'Hara came to Mater Dei in 1959 and coached the freshman team for two years before joining Dick Coury's staff on the varsity. Most recently O'Hara has been the assistant principal and athletic director at Mater Dei, in addition to his teaching and coaching duties. Since coming to Southern California for his education from his native Atlantic City, New Jersey, Coach O'Hara has earned a truly fine reputation as a fine football coach and outstanding citizen. Joe, his wife Lenore, and their eight children reside in Tustin. The O'Haras have made Orange County their home since Joe went to Mater Dei. In addition to his . being a coech and teacher O'Hara has been appointed Assistant Athletic Director and Facilities Coordinator. Coach Dave Jordan is not simply the Titan line coach, but he is the strong man on the staff.
