IN DEDICATION
TO
DR. JOHN S. WRIGHT
. . . a patient, painstaking, unrelenting passion for fact ... the ability to separate
truth from the fiction of confusion and misunderstanding ... an uninhibited curiosity
and unique enthusiasm . . .
Delving into the records of man's past and by careful analysis interpreting history
in contemporary language and thought is the modern historian's demanding and
often frustrating task.
Dr. John S. Wright, possessor of an enigmatic grin and a sly wit, shares his vast
knowledge of the past with his admirers, the young men and women of Nevada
Southern University. His vital interpretations are the result of arduous research,
prompted by a sincere appreciation of the value in defining and teaching the history
of man.
A community leader, as well as an outstanding faculty member, John Wright was
named 1962-63 "Optimist of the Year" by the Thunderbird Optimist Club. During
the Second World War he became a Captain in the United States Army and was
awarded the Bronze Medal for meritorious achievement in connection with military
operations in Italy. Dr. Wright was a member of the history and political science
faculty of Illinois College, Jacksonville, Illinois and is listed in Who's Who in the
Midwest. He is a recognized authority on the Civil War and is presently involved
in research and writing about this period.
For his academic contribution to the University and for his individual accomplishments,
we dedicate this book to Dr. John S. Wright, professor of history and head
of the Social Studies Division at Nevada Southern University.

"Progressive" best describes the
1963-64 CSNS. Activities were
geared toward bringing more
community recognition to the
campus and providing stimulating
on-campus activities. Peter, Paul
and Mary, as well as The Modern
Folk Quartet, were a result of
CSNS progressive planning.

A function of coordination is the purpose assigned the Associated Women
Students. This organization, directed by Mrs. Jeffers, is a service club comprised of
all women students at N.S.U.
AWS is active in the annual Orientation Week program and the University
Days celebration, and sponsors the Sweetheart Dance and the Yearbook Party.
This year they had the Sugar Shack at the University Day celebration and
operated the refreshment stand at the basketball games. For the first time in
NSU's history, the "Rebel Rollcall", a student directory was published by the AWS.

President John F. Kennedy
"Event of the Year" is an appropriate description of President
Kennedy's visit to Las Vegas September 28, scarcely
two months before his tragic death. Nevada Southern displayed
unbridled enthusiasm, as did all of Las Vegas. Fifty
students and an enormous "welcome" sign decorated the
section of the convention hall occupied the N S U representatives.

Robert St. John — Lecturer
Who is out of step? One million people in the tip of Africa or the
rest of the world?" Correspondent Robert St. John, world traveler
and author of numerous books on the Middle East and Africa, explored
racial tension in Africa as the second lecturer in the Campus
Lecture Series. Mr. St. John described Black Africa as a world of
terror and hopelessness.

T.H. White - Lecturer
The late T. H. White, novelist and authority on the middle ages, was the
first speaker in the Campus Lecture Series. Whimsical, wry, and glowing
with Joie de vivre, novelist White charmed a capacity audience with his
animated discourse on "The Pleasures of Learning."

Halloween
A gathering of the delightfully demented occurred at the Halloween
Dance. The gruesome and gory were represented along
with the hilarious and ridiculous at this October orgy. Music,
by the Crossfires, spooked the gathering sponsored by the Sigma
Gamma Fraternity.

University Day
- 89 -
A very "upper class" prison
gave an interesting atmosphere.
The bonfire highlighted the day. It was guarded
by as many upperclassmen as frosh, though the
idea is to make the freshmen fight to defend their
woodpile. All photographs of the bonfire in full
flame are, unfortunately, in ashes.
Occasionally, there were quieter moments
of meditation, organization,
drinking . . .

FALL PLAY
"The Queen
and the Rebels"
Few writers in the twentieth century have come to grips with moral
issues more forcefully and imaginatively than the late Italian playwright,
Ugo Betti (1892-1953).
In many modern plays moral issues are psychologidly explained,
but Betti believed in self-responsibility. He once wrote in a newspaper
that "it is not very popular these days to attribute responsibility
to oneself; the general practice is to blame others, history,
law, parents, etc. The fact is, that vast picture of our life has an
author which carries a signature: Our own! We are responsible
for it."
The Little Theater's Fall Play, in a realistic framework, projected the
importance and dignity of the individual, a philosophy in which
Betti profoundly believed.

Athletic Director
Even though the Rebel's 19-7 record did
not equal last year's 21-4 mark, the Nevada
Southern basketballers were one of
the finest teams during the 1963-64 cage
season.
The rebels were ranked two weeks in a
row by the Associated Press small college
poll in the top 27 and 31 teams in the
country. They were also ranked once by
the United Press poll as among the top 26
teams in the nation. This year's cagers
scored more points than any other previous
team (2016 for the season) and became
the "basket a minute" Rebels with
an 80.1 average per game.
Las Vegas saw a different style of play
that combined cool deliberate offensive
play with a tight man-to-man defensive.
The Rebels did not depend entirely on
defensive ball playing, as a fast break
pulled the Rebels out of many a slump.

SNO-BALL
Suggesting a white winter yet effervescent with
color, the annual Sno-Ball was representative of
traditional holiday spirit. Nevada Southern's winter
formal was held in the Gold Room of the Las
Vegas Convention Center and sponsored by the
IK's.
Her majesty, Diane Ruffino, reigned at the festivities
as Sno-Ball Queen. She was elected by
NSU's matriculated male students and escorted by
Frank Jakuski. Attendants of the queen were
Nancy Smith, escorted by Karvel Rose, and Marolyn
Davis, escorted by Mike Gordon.
The music of the Guy Sanderson Five set the tempo
for the occasion.

An unusually perceptive view of today's Communist China was presented
on February 10 by Felix Greene, author of "Awakened China." Mr. Greene's
1957 and 1959 visits to China, including an internationally televised interview
with Prime Minister Chou-En-Lai, provided the background for his
lecture on the present conditions in China.

Margaret Mead — Lecturer
On February 6, Nevada Southern was visited by one of the world's most esteemed
women anthropologists, Dr. Margaret Mead, who lectured on "The Dilemma of
Modern Day Youth." Dr. Mead, in her speech before capacity crowds, stressed the
relationship of modern youth to his times, an unusual new era of rapid social change.
SWEETHEART BALL

Center. A red and white Valentine motif provided the background for
the crowning of the Sweetheart Couple, Karvel Rose and Nancy Smith, with
Ron Hamilton and Ginger Cavanaugh as attendants along with Dave Gartenberg
and Sharon Fisher. The popular Crossfires provided music for the
Valentine's Day celebration which was sponsored by the A.W.S.

United Nations Committee
This year the Nevada Southern United Nations Committee represented
Italy at the Model United Nations of the Far West Convention
at Spokane after having participated in the regional convention
at Claremont, Calif. The main purpose behind the U. N. Committee
is to give the students in the field of political science a working
knowledge of the structure and function of the U. N. along with its
purpose and possibilities. As a part of the committee's intense
study of Italian foreign policy and internal policies, the committee
invited the Italian Consul General, A. Savorgnan, to lecture on
campus. Not only does the U.N. Committee provide an insight
into the U. N. but it also provides an opportunity to glean ideas
from other university students.

A sorority unique in its structure, Nu Sigma Upsilon is open to all matriculated
women students at Nevada Southern. The purpose of the organization is to provide
its members with the incentive and opportunities to better themselves and their
school through social service, active school participation and maintenance of a high
scholastic standing.
- 138 -
"Glamorous" is certainly not the word for a new pledge of Nu Sigma Upsilon during
rush week. Clad in pajamas and hair rollers or incongruous costumes, these girls
endure unspeakable agonies. Such hardships, however, prepare them for many
aspects of service: dance coordination, ushering at university functions, the annual
spaghetti dinner, the dinner and giftgiving for the girls at the Good Shephard's
Home, and promoting school spirit.

ENGINEER'S CLUB
The Engineer's club is an organization for the promotion
and study of engineering. The club's structure
is patterned after the model outlined by the
National Society of Professional Engineers with
which the student club hopes to affiliate at a later
date. This has been the first year as a recognized
campus organization and it is expected that the

CAPABARA
. . . and it came to pass in the hallowed halls of
the science-tech building that the bearded ones did
descend upon us and, forsooth, did speak among
themselves, nay, verily each unto the other of the
BEARD; for unbeknownst to the erudite scholars
there has crept amongst us a most outrageously
social and unrecognized group that do verily call
themselves by the name of CAPABARA . . .

St. Patrick's Day Dance
Green lights and decorations created the atmosphere for the St.
Patrick's Day Dance this year at the Convention Center. The dance
was climaxed by the crowning of Dean Amaru as the most prefered
man on campus. The Very Irish Cross-Fires supplied the music for
the dance which was sponsored by the Newman Club.
