The ENTERPRISE has a new look this year.

Staff members voted to adopt the new style, called Total Design Concept (TDC), in iJn effort to make the paper more readable.

In TDC, stcries are arrang­ed in verticle and hor1zontal blocks on the page. Tradition­al layout arranges stories 1n

columns of varying lentgh. Artwork, which a:tracts the

reader away from print, is minim1zed. The new ENTER­PRISE flag on page one rep­resents the progress1ve art look that goes with TDC. Lab­els of regular features will carry out th1s new design.

Phasing proves valuable Phn:;ing first appeared in the ENTERPRISE in the

September. 1970, issue. The front page story announced phasing as .. an inno­

vational program tailored to meet the. needs of \·arious groups."

By phasing. students are placed in one of four classi­fications. In Pha::;e I, basic skills are stre::;sed. Pha::;e II contains simplified regular study courses. Phase III i:; for "ayeragc .. and Phase IY for ··academically talented · stu­dents.

Phasing is recognition of the fact that not all Hu­dents are equal academic achie\ ers. nor have the~· all had the same educational opportunitie:s.

By placement in classe:s with their academic peers, students are allowed to work with material they can master.

If the program was eliminated, a "mean curriculum" would be established for all classes. This \\:ould not be satisfactorv. Some students. for manv reasons. would not be able to master the material. For: others, it woula be elementary and unchallenging. Neither group would re­ceive the education thev deserve.

Some persons urge. phasing be discontinued in Caddo Parish high schools.

THE E~TERPRISE feels phasing of classes should be continued. Although it is not a perfect system, \\'e ieel it works to the ad\·antage of most students.

Psychology discussed By Tommy Murov

"Say, 'I am flitting about many years from brain unto brain of Feeble and restless youth born to inglorious days'."

·-Clough Why in these so-called inglorious days, would Mr. Greg Cofer

want to teach high-schoolers psychology? Many people would probably th1n:.- it is not necessay until college.

Cofer says, "Well, this is basically a college prep course. What we're trying to do is tell what psychology is. We also wanted to create a new area of vocational interest for Captain Shreve students. Our third goal was to g1ve the students a good oppor­tunity to discuss problems of the youth of today."

Cofer said his approach to teach ng the course 1s of prac­tical application. He dOdeci- it is how peop e use psychology in their everyday lives.

"The de€pest we'll go into the course is how the surface mater al we cover affects the individual's ~eelings," said Cofer. He sard the classes will also cover a little of sociology and anthro­pology.

When talking about speci!ic branches of psychology tha• his classes would be covering, Cofer included perception. He added, "Obviously different people perceive things in d1fferent ways. Everyone has his own concept of what something looks like ."

Cofer said an cxemple of perception is when a gro~:p of people look at a transparency for one minute. Th~ transpdrency is one half red and one half black. After the projector is 1urned off, the colors will switch sides for most people. "Percept;c-n of colors and percept•on of everything depends on the ir.dividual, and that's how we 1udge on 1h1s rn psychology."

Cofer said we use psychology every day, whether we know it or not. "When you ask somebody to do someth:ng fo1 you, you're usmg psychology. You're approaching them in 3 way that they would respond."

Black Studies may be answer

by James De Bouse In a school wr·o5e h!ask-white

rat1o 1s about hatf dnd ha r, there must be a certa:n degree of cultural understa"ld•ng, the area m wh1ch most students agre€ Captarn Shreve Is weak­est. " Black ~tudres" can a.:• as a means to ach1eve th1s under­standing.

Research has shown that Black Stud1es can mohvate in­terest 1n school and remove in­fenorlly complexes from blacb. Educator Leona ferrer wrote in a 1970 Elementary School Jour­nal that exclusion of Black His­tory and accomplishments logic­ally st•mulates black inferiori ty. Express•ng a s1mrlar view, Emily G1bson staled m Social Educa­tion that once a child accepts in­ferionty it results m d~tach­ment. Th1s means he is unable to overcome the myth of wh te supenority, W1thout tactual re­inforcement of black d1gnity he feels worthlessness.

Black. Studies has shown to breed racial tolerance. In a 1969 Journal of Negro Educat1on. J. Roth researched the effect of Negro student pride and Black Stud•es, using a Self Concept and Mot1vat on Inventory (SCAMIN). Blacks exposed to Black Stud•es developed on at­ll:ude of posrtrve racial pride, and thts rs done without devel­oping a hate for whrtes.

Black Studies •s needed to educate whites as wei! as blacks. Professor's Beyer and Hrcks at Carnegte Mellon Uni­vers ty, through Projec: Africa, surveyed select se ~enth through twelfth grade stude!lts m 24 states. These 841 s:u:Jents were given 90 words to identify their tmages of Afnca south of the Sahara . Results showed both seventh and twelfth grade stu­dP.nts assoctate Atnca wllh wild ammals, jungl~s. bacl.:wardness and strange people with exotic customs. Thrs "'as true two and th·ee hund~ed years ago.

Black Studies does not :ry to doMmate what is white, but rn a school such as ours, rt could possibly add our misstng demin­sion: understanding.

lull rocks coliseum By Ray Waddle

Suspense was almost unbearable as the spot on the ~creen grew and grew with every heartbeat until the ballerina finally appeared. As the prelude to ''A Passion Play" reached its climax, the band that Shreveport had hoped to see for severa m,....nths flew onto stage in a cloud of smoke. Jethro Tull, one ot the most innovative rock groups to come out of England, p11 t on per­haps the greatest produc11on that has ever hit the area:

This concert, performed September 17 was unlike any othe r rock show ever seen here. The five member band kept a1most everyone on the edge of his chair from the first pow~rfu note to the last second of the encore w1th their stage antics and dyroamu:; music. All five musicians were jumping up, down, backward~ and forward like madmen, but the leader lan Anderson was the one to watch, dancing and carrying on like a real wizard witl-o his flute.

Anderson, the only original Tull member (the group has been around since 1968) is the genius who composes !:>oth mus1c and lyrics for the band He demonstrated his variety of talents by frequently changing instruments - from acoustic guitar to flute to electric clar;net and back to gu1tar. Constantly drdmatoz,ng the power of their music wtlh h1s dancing and body and hand motions, Anderson and the rest of Jethro Tu ll tru ly delighted the b•g crowd at Hrrsch Coliseum.

Judging from the people around me, the gener.,l reaction to the band's stage show was one of awe, bafflement or hilarity - due to the seemi"lgly irrelevant dialogues between band mem­bers. Stranqe movtes(flashed onto a large screen behind the stage) showed the " Pass•on Play" epic.

Tull's mus1c consisted of the entire " Passion Play" (their la test album) and segments of their earlier masterpiece, "Thick As a Brick." These two were especially well-produced live. They also performed most of their "Aqualung" album. Show lasted over two hours.

Playing "backup" for Jethro Tull was Livingston Taylo~ Hi~ voice and style of singing sounded very much like his famous brother, James. He was backed up by an able pianist and hass player.

Deafening throb of over-amplified music was, fortunately, absent this night due to Tull's own qual ity sound system. Also, the lrght.ng corresponded well with the music, adding a special effect.

ground gamer with 49 yards on nine carries.

Wide receiver Rodenck Foppe cleared the way for the fourth and final touchdown as Thomas scampered seven yards around left end, past the fal:en Kmght cornerback.

Deepest penetrat1on by Wood­lawn all n1ght was to the Gator 32 yard line. Their dnve ended when defensive guard Joe Mc­Kmney recovered an .A.Iexander fumble.

Woodlawn could only man­age f1ve fi~sT downs, one •n the firs. ha f anci 70 yards total of­fense aga nst a stingy, gang tacK mg defense full of heroes.

As the gume progressed into the fourth quarter man r' stuters coL ,d be seen on the sidelines as Coach Lee Hedges began to substitute freely.

Coach Hedges used 12 play­ers in his offensive backf1eld dunng the game. Nine running backs ran through a porous de­fense for 170 yards. ~edges used Joel Thomas, Dunny But­ler and Larry Brazzel as quarter­backs.

Shreve ' , passes by Ruston 27-7 Ruston s Bearcats found out

who quarterback Joel Thomas was after he r1adled the1r de­fens•ve secondary for tour touchdown passes 1n the Gator 27-7 VICtory.

Rece1ver::; Roderick Foppe and Carlos Pennywell comomed to carch all four touchdown passes. Foppe caught three or the pass­es wh1ch covered 60, 48 and 27 yards, respecTively. Pennywell's

ca'ch was gooa for seven yards. Ruston defenders were caught

star ing at the backs of Foppe and Pennywell as they outran all defenders on the1r touch­down runs.

Statist1cs ·ndicate Thomas had by far h1s best night as a quar­terback. He completed eight of ten passes for 229 yards. The t1ght offenstve line Qlay allow­ed Thomas plenty of time to set, pick out a target and pass.

For the second week in a row the defense forced the Of:posi­tlon to play a Capt~in Shreve kind of garne. Ruston was forc­ed to punt six times and only allowed to pass for 64 yards.

It was a long night for ex­Airline coach Jack Gray as he watched h1s defense give up 375 yards total offense while his offense lost the ball four t1mes. The closest h•s Bearcats got to wmnmg was when Rus­ton tied the score at 7-7 in the first quarter.

No glory for offensive linemen

Week tn and week out, the Gator offensive line IS g•ven very 1tlie .:redit for their part m Gator victor;es.

Our ng pre-season, there was o3 worry that the inexpenence of the offens ve line would hinder the offensive sconng powers. This seemed to be true as Gator fans sat in disbe11ef watching Booker T Washington·~ defense trap quarterback Joel Thomas many times at the Caddo Pamh Jamboree Offensive line coach Tommy Powell is not working W1tr the b1ggest or heaviest line in the district. His tackle$ weigh­ed over. 200 pounds while the center and guards weigh under 200.

Captain Shreve opened the season in just the oppos1te way

from the Jamboree. Tackle~ Cal­vin Beasley (245) and Eric May­eux (225), guards Gene Lewing (1 70} and Marshall Crenshaw (170), center Chester Grigsby (175) and sw1ng m3n Hilliard McNeese 1200) opened huge holes in both Woodlawn and Ruston's defense.

i31ock•ng ass,gnments are not hurt by the 1ack of weight in certain spots on the offensive !ine. In the Gator 'pro-type' of­fense, play action passes, roll­outs, sprints and sweeps are used.

A friendlv surprise ct this ear­ly stage will be the continued improvement of the offensive line week by week. If Captain Shreve continiJes at this oace its opponents had better loo'< out.

"People trust us"

by Craig ·"'iller and Ray Waddle

You may n~ver want to kno·.v where t0 g0t an abortion, or be deoressed enough to kill yourse f, or need to know who to call when a friend 0 D.'s.

But if you do, Satori and Shire House are here to he p.

1029 Da zell is in the center of Shreveport's once fashionab,e Highland area.

No longer as stylish, two years ago it became Satori House.

The House is run primarily as an abortion, drug, and suicide counseling service. It is managed hy a man and woman, known to everyone who '=Ome~ as Dicky and Joyce.

"We're mostly a telephone service for tl,e area," says Dicky.

The staff has been trained by local psychiatrists to counsel people with emotional problems.

"Mostly we just talk"

"Mostly, we just talk," he says. "A lot ot proba­b le suicides call, especially on weekends. We also do a lot of abortion referral."

"We do help people who come by, if we can, but we can't do anything for runaways 1f they're under 1 7 because of the laws," he says.

The second floor is used to board those whom the y can help.

Satori House is not equipped to treat drug relat­f'd cases. Thei1 primary role is to get persons in <.on­t"lct with those who can help with their specific problem.

SATORI'S MAIN FUNCTIONS a re counseling and referring people to2 other age ncies, such as Shire House, CODAC or Ope n Ear. (Photo by Miller)

Operating funds come fr'Jm benefit conce rts, b1 'rnper sticker drives, and donations.

A concert IS tentatively scheduled for November 26 v.h,ch they hope will offset the current financial deficit.

Satori House number is 425-7196.

An old, brown two story ~tucco house several blocks awoy has become the most successful drug treatment center in the area.

Sh're House, at 1 ~40 Irving Place, is ready to handle OD's, "flip outs/' and attempted suicides. Shire is able to handle alr'1ost anythmg from pumping stomachs to ta:..ing blood •ests to performing rninor surgery in their makeshiit, but adequate emergency room.

'Dopers listen to dopers"

Also in the room are two medicine closets (bolt­ed and locked) and a file cabiner containtng informa­tion about patients. All informalion in the r:abiner is confidential. One staff member claims the Supreme Court couldn't see the records.

Any emergency case that can't be handled at Shire is rushed to the emergency room at Confederate Memorial.

SENIOR STAFFER BOB NOBl E is trained by local doctors to admini ster emergency medication and to he lp patienls w ith emotional and drug-related prob­lems.

Senior Staff Counselor Bob Noble outlines three reasons why Shire House has been so succe<;sful

First, "People trust us more than doctors and clergymen because we have all expenenced dope in some form or another. I mean, how many doctors and clergy have been on drugs 7 It's s1mple. Dopers listen to dopers.''

Second, Bob says that one of the basic principles of Shire is not to preach about dope, but to relate to their patients who are having problems and let them make up their own minds about drugs. "I know I did," Bob says.

Finally, Shire observes a strict "No-Heat" policy. No police ever interfere with house operations. If a person comes to the house, hts name will never be given to authorities. This policy follows a patient if he is admitted to a hosp1tal.

They also offer a "pick up" service. If a r"Jerson is in need of their help but can I get there, all he needs to do is call the house. Staff members will come in an unmarked van to bring persons to the hou;e.

September 28, 1973

Shire House participates in a cooper"ltive drug statistic pool. The pool keeps other places like Shire House informed on what kinds of drugs are being used.

For example, a new acid called "baby l::lue" started being used in Arkansas. Shire was i:1formed what its symptoms and effects were:, so wh~n it came to Shreveport they already knew how to treut it.

SHIRE HOUSE se rves as a community refuge for people w ho don't know w he re to tu rn .

In the tw,o years of it's existence, Shire House has seen over 800 patients. Almost 500 came last year, and the staff say they expect more this year.

The house is staffed by trained medical rersons. In addition to senior medical students and registereq nurses who work regular shifts, medical doctors and psychiatrists are on call around the clock.

Shire House project was started by Dr. Paul Ware, a local psychiatrist. Dr. Ware realized that an increasing number of people were getting int0 trouble with drugs and had nowhere to go. He and Dr. Peter Pearson supervise the operation.

There are approximately 100 peoole being counseled regularly at Shire Hou~e as a 9art ot the "long term counseling after crisis" program. The staff say th? t they feel getting a person over an O D is only getting them over half the problem. "Use of drugs," Bob says, "is usually a sign of an emotional problem. We have to get rid of that before they can get off drugs."

Bob points out, "of the 825 people we've see n, there have been no deaths. Actually, I know for sure 40 people would be dead now if the y had not come to Shire House."

"Drug use is a sign

of emotional problems"

There are four levels of counseling o n the staff, all with different responsibilities. Positions ;:~re d eter­mined by experience. Minimum age to apply for a position on the staff is 16.

Shire House is funded primarily by CODAC
