Description
An account of the resource
The Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) Photograph Collection consists of photographs and negatives of students, faculty, and events at EKU. Subjects range from individual faculty headshots and classroom pictures to commencement and candid everyday student life photos. Organizational pictures, shots of campus in general, athletics and other official photos taken from the university photographer are also included. Many of these images were taken for publication in marketing materials or for use in the school newspaper, yearbook and alumni magazines. The collection also includes snapshots taken by employees attending events.
The collection may be used for all types of research, keeping in mind that individuals are often unidentified, so search broadly. All images available have been described here, but not all are scanned. Photographs with only a description can be requested by filling out a duplication request (see the link in the menu at the top of the page).

�EASTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSITY
In his inauguration address six years ago, Robert R. Martin
laid the foundation for one of the largest expansion programs in
the country. "Make no little plans," he said, "for they have no
magic to stir men's blood. "
This philosophy, generated by
Eastern K entucky University's
sixth president, molded a
small teachers' college into one
of the fastest growing institutions of higher learning in
the United States.
With ,o rder as its watchword, and beauty its beacon,
the leaders of Eastern have
directed one of the biggest expansion programs in the country.
Located in the famed Blue
Grass region of Central Kentucky, Eastern is engaged in
an almost overwhelming building program, with concentration on the three maj.or aspects
of the University in the physical plant, the student bond ,
and the academic offerings.
Since 1960, construction at
Eastern has totaled more than
$50 million . Completed are:
nine dormitories, Combs classRobert R. Martin
room building, Parke Observ atory, Alumi Coliseum, Model Laboratory School. Presently under
construction are two dormitories, an addition to the John Grant
Crabbe Library, and Moore Science Building. Also numerous
projects still are in vario us stages of planning.
Enrollment at Eastern has climbed to 7,972 on-campus students.
In all, Eastern trained some 10,000 person s including those enro lled in correspondence courses, extension courses and adult edu cation courses.
With University statu s came an academic reorganization of
the institution into five colleges and the Graduate School. The
colleges are: the College of Applied Arts and Technology, the
College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business, the College
of Education, and Central University College.
Founded in 1906 as one of two normal schools in Kentucky,
Eastern has earned a reputation as an outstanding teacher-training
center with a varied liberal arts curricula. Nearly 75 per cent of
its 15,000 graduates have entered the teac hing profession, as
Eastern annually leads the state in the production of teachers.
Eastern offers four -year curricula leading to the bachelor
of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree in teacher eductaion and
general and professional areas. In addition, there are various
Master of Arts degree programs in education, English , and history.
Also offered is a thirty-hour curriculum beyond the Master s l evel
in education , qualifying teachers for the top rank in Kentucky.

�DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS
GLENN E. PRESNELL
Glenn Presnell, former Nebrask a All-American halfback and
long-tim e E astern football coach , became the Unive rsity 's first fulltime director ,o f athle t ics in Nove mber , 1963, when he resigned
his grid coaching posit ion to accep t his new ass ign ement.
In ten years at the Colonel helm ,
he guided his team s to 42 w ins, 49
losses, a nd three ties, winning one
OVC title outright and gaining a fourwa y share of the crown in 1962, the
only Kentucky coach ever to claim
m ore than one OVC h a lo.
Hi s first year as head coach, 1954,
was his best. His Colone ls went unde feated in season play and lost to Omaha
University 7-6 in what is still regarded
by m any a s the greatest T angerine
Bowl game ever played in Orlando, Fla .
Born at Gilead , Nebraska, Presn ell
was an All-American hlfback at Nebraska, and played in the East-West
All-Star ga me in San Francisc o at the
end of his college career in 1927.
Later, w ith t h e Portsmou th Spartan s and the D etroit Lion s of t he NaGlenn E. Presnell
tional F ootball League, he was an
all-league perfor mer.
Against G reen Bay in 1934, the popular Presn ell kicked a 54y ard field goal, which stood as the N. F. L . record for 19 years,
and still is the second lon gest in the L eague's history. The N . F. L .'s
1964 yearbook cited Presnell as one of t he key m en in Detroit's
1935 championship.
Presnell began his collegiate coaching career in 1937 a s b ackfield coach at the Univer sity of K ansas. In 1938 he returned to
Nebraska as backfield coach, and in 1942, he was named head
coach there. Nebraska p layed Stanford in the Rosebowl in 1941 ,
w hile he was backfield coach of the Cornhuskers.
In 1943 and '44, Presnell coach ed the backfield at North Carolina Pre-fli ght , w hile serving as a naval officer. H e returned to
Nebraska in 1946, before coming to Eastern in 1947. H e was named
head coach in 1954.
H e was p layer-coach of the pro I ronton ( Ohio ) T anks fr om
1928-30, h e also coached the Russell, Kentucky, H igh Schoo l football, b asketball and baseball teams, and the girls' basketball team .
Reports indicate Presnell, up for induction once previously,
may soon be inducted into the P rofessional Football H all of F ame.
H e married the former Lizbeth Geh r ling of Iron ton, Ohio, in
1929, and found in her the most faithful fan and supporter. They
h ave one son , Da nny, 24, who teaches a t Madison Centra l High
School in Richmond . His chief h obby is golf, and he coaches the
E astern linksmen, but he takes an interest in all spo rts.

�THE COLONEL
Howdy.
Allow me to introduce myself.
I, suh, am the Eastern Kentucky University Colonel. I hail
from a state bordering the Mason-Dixon line. Surrounding this
vast institution which I represent, you'll find (in my opinion)
the most beautiful country in the
world ... Rich in tradition and steeped
in the history that founded this great
land.
It wasn't too far from here that ol'
Daniel Boone blazed the Wilderness
Trail.
In fact , just a few miles away is th e
Cumberland National Forest. And
down the road a piece, yo u'll find acres
of ro llin g Blue Grass field s. That 's what
this country's noted for y.ou know ...
Blue Grass. We also ha ve a reputation
for fast horses, beautiful women, Basketball , and mint julips. (Not necesarly in that order, either. But that
Blue Grass . .. just let that ol' Kentucky sun peak from behind a cloud
and sm ile on those fields . . . with
those bl ue-blooded thoroughbreds grazing . . . framed by white fences
why, it's a sight to behold!
I've been around for quite some time .
~
You know, the Kentucky Colonel?
You 'll be seeing more and more of me
now. Our athletic teams are both
Colonels and Maroons. It's something
new, but "new" seems to be the theme at Eastern. It's growi ng and
now I'm part of that growth.
Well suh, sorry if I got carried away with that i ntrod uction .
. hope you'll stop by for a visit sometime.

�The Ohio Valley Conference
In 1941, foresighted men had visions of an Ohio Valley Conference. Sports writers speculated about the impending division
of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Atheltic Conference. Virtually all
agreed it was just a matter of time until the division took place
and a new athletic conference was formed.
Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and America was
plunged into World War II.
Seven years later, after the hostilities had ceased, a pre-war
dream became a post-war reality. The "Big Five" of the K.I.A.C.
withdrew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.
Making the move were Western Kentucky State College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray State College, Morehead State
College and the University of Louisville. They were joined by
Evansville College and, shortly thereafter, by Tennessee Tech and
Marshall College.
Purpose of the O.V.C., as set forth in its constitution, is "to
regulate, control, and promote all the recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics in institutions represented."
Through a gradual process, the Ohio Valley Conference was to
become a league of Kentucky and T ennessee state colleges. Middle
Tennessee State College joined the rolls in 1952, East Tennessee
State University in 1957 and Austin Peay State College in the
spring of 1962. They replaced Louisville, which became an independent in 1949, and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in
1952.
In 1963. the league took another step forward by appointing
Arthur L. Guepe, former football coach and athletic director at
Virginia and Vanderbilt Universities, as the OVC's first full-time
commissioner.

�A TRIBUTE
To Eastern's Athletic Progran1
The Ohio Valley Conference All-Sports
trophy is presented each year to the
school with the outstanding athletic program in the conference. Eastern won the
coveted award last year via consistency
in all phases of the intercollegiate program.

�ALUMNI COLISEUM
HOME OF~ THE COLONELS
�COLISEUM ATTRACTS OVER 400,000
IN THREE YEARS OF EXISTENCE
Years ahead of its time, Alumni Coliseum stands proudly on
a southern slope of the Eastern campus. This massive physical
plant, a great triumph in architectural design and a new concept
in combination structures, announces the general theme of this
rapid-growing institution of higher education.
The culmination of years of planning and construction, this
athletic -education palace attracted nearly a half million persons
inside its confines during the second full year of existence. This
number include more than 150,000 basketball enthusiasts who have
watched the Colonels compile a 28-5 worksheet there, and others
who attended conventions, workshops, seminars, and cultural programs. It does not include most of the nearly 18,000 students who
participated in regular physical education classes and those recreational activities using its facilities the past three years.
The Coliseum is a tribute to the 15,000 alumni who have graduated from Eastern and to the thousands who will be trained by
Eastern in future years.
Since that historic day on June 1, 1961, when Dr. Lyndon B.
Johnson, Vice President of the United States, pitched the first
spadeful of earth near the College dairy barn, the world has been
aware of the construction of this great building. Technical aspects
of Alumni Coliseum are truly amazing. The laminated crossarches of the world's largest roof of its kind span over 309 feet and
provide for outstanding unobstructed viewing of a variety of events
which will be held in the main auditorium. A total of 626,276
board feet of lumber form the 170 beams and ro.of decking which
arch gracefully 81 feet above the floor level. The warmth of southern pine, finished in its natural beauty, provides a perfect atmosphere in this great arena.
In addition to the main auditorium, the physical education-athletic plant contains four basketball eourts in the auxiliary gymnasium on the east end; eight classrooms; twenty offices; both
indoor and outdoor swimming pools; shower and locker rooms; a
propection room, and many other multi-purpose facilities.
The main arena seats more than 6,500 f.or basketball games and
approximately 8,000 for other programs. Ultimate seating capacity
for basketball will be 10,000, and for other programs, about 12,000.
A hydraulic-operated stage is located at the east end of the
arena.
Alumni Coliseum forms the nucleus of a rapidly-evolving,
thoughtfully-planned sports center. The 1,300-car capacity, multipurpose paved parking area in front of the building also serves as a
marching area for the College band and the R.O.T.C. unit and as
recreation and physical education area.
The compact sports center also includes a new nine-lane, allweather rubber-asphalt track, which encircles a oractice football
field: a women's hockev field: 12 all-weather tennis courts, lighted
for night play; and the "Turkey" Hughes Baseball Field. Future
plans envision a new football stadium in the immediate vicinity
of all other athletic facilities.

���JAMES E. BAECHTOLD
HEAD BASKETBALL COACH
Quiet, mild-mannered Jim Baechtold builds character. He also
coaches basketball. But either way you look at it, Jim Baechtold
is a success. Operating under a no -non sense philosophy of dedication, Baechtold is noted for getting that extra ten per cent from
his basketball players. Along the way, he's also built a reputation
of frequenting the win column. Entering his fifth year as head
coach at Eastern, the young strategist has won 65 games while
losing 39. His record in the OVC is 43-20. In the past two seasons,
the Colonels have defeated 35 of 50 opponents for a percentage
of .700.
The former Eastern All-Ame:-ican-who looks every bit the
part-was "Coach of the Year" in the Ohio Valley Conference
two years ago. Last season he guided the Colonels to a secondplace finish. But with the big names absent from Eastern's roster
this year, Baechtold faces the task of re -development. His ingredients inc.Jude only two seniors, three juniors, and nine green
sophomores.
Succeeded His Teacher
Baechtold is carrying on a winning tradition at Eastern. A
tradition handed down by his predecessor and personal tutor, Paul
McBrayer. It was under McBrayer that Baechtold gained AllAmerica honors two years in a row. A regular for four seasons(Eastern was not limited by the NCAA to three years of varsity
competition at the time) he was an All-OVC selection his last three
years.
The soft-spoken Pennsylvania ranks as the third leading career
scorer of all time at Eastern. He trails Eddie Bodkin, a Baechtold
product who graduated last year as the top point-producer in
Eastern history, and Jack Adams, the Colonels assistant coach.
Baechtold calls his greatest thrills in his brilliant athletic
career, which includes five years of professional basketball, two
victories over the arch-rival Western Hilltoppers in Bowling Green .
The first came as a player when, in his freshman year, he led the
Maroons to a 42-40 win. The second came as a coach when, in 196263, his first Eastern team whipped the 'Toppers 79-69 in their last
meeting in the "Red Barn."
About the win as a player, Baechtold recalls, "We were behind
18-12 in the first half, and I was able to score three quick baskets
to tie the score. That seemed to get us rolling for that big upset
and it snapped a long home court winning streak for Western."
Baechtold Came to Eastern "by Accident"
The strapping Pennsylvanian actually happened to come to
Eastern by accident. It was the influence of two former Eastern
football players from his hometown and a big red-faced Irishman
named Paul McBrayer who influenced him to change his mind.
So, instead of reporting to the University of Alabama as a football
candidate, Baechtold remained at Eastern, where fate was to be
kind to him .
15
�Following his graduation from lastern in 1952, Jim was
drafted by the Baltimore Bullets of the National Basketball Association, where he was named "Rookie of the Year," in his first year
of competition. He averaged better than 17 points a ga m e after he
gained a starting position early in the season.
He joined the New York Knickerbockers after B a ltimore left t he pro
leag ue, and h ad four highly successful
seasons with the Knicks. His best year
was his second, when he scored 1,003
points as a starting guard.
Calcium deposits on h s knee forced
Baechtold to give up pro basketball.
By attending school during the offseasons, he received the Master 0£
Science degree from the University of
Indiana in the summer of 1957.
He retired to his Alm a Mater the
fall of 1957 to become the first full time assistant coach for Paul McBrayer
an d remained in t hat capacity until
his appointment in sprin g, 1962.
He was born December 9, 1927, to
W alter 0 . and Emma B aechtold , who
a r e both of German ancestry, at McKeesport, Pa. Because of his father's
work in the stills for the Gulf Oil CorJim Baechtold
poration, at Nevelle Island , where h e
worked for 35 years, the family moved to Moon Township, w hich
was closer. Moon Township is 14 miles northwest of Pittsburgh.
Starred in B oth Football and B aske tball
There he starred in both footba ll and basketball for four years .
He was a leadin g scorer on the basketball team his last two years,
and a high-scoring pass-catching end on the football team.
Upon graduation, Jim stood only sli ghtly over six feet and
weighed but 170· pound s.
Baechtold entered the ser vice in 1946 a nd served as a corporal
with the 1st Cavalry Division , 61st Field Artillery, at Ota, Japan.
He went to Division Headquarters in Tokyo when baseball season
began and was on detached service to play baseball, basketball,
and football.
When he was discharged in June, 1948, Baechtold stood 6-4
an d weighed 215 pounds.
J im married his college sweetheart, Shirley Spires, in Sep tember, 1954. At Eastern, Shirley was queen of the Mili tary Ball,
an attendant to Miss Eastern, and sh e reigned as queen of the 1951
J un ior Prom, with Jim as king of the Prom.
S he prese ntly is teaching in Eastern's English Depa rtment, and
has taught part-time in Richmond's Madison H igh School. Shirley
has also sung professionally in Cincinnati, Dayton , and New York.
The B aechtolds have no children .
A Presbyterian, J im's hobbies are golf, boating, and swimmi ng.
" I would h ave to say that basketball, thou gh, is my favorite hobby,
because I still like to keep active on the court whenever I can. "

�JACK ADAMS
ASSISTANT BASKETBALL COACH
It's been t en years since Jack Adam s became a basketball
legend at Eastern. As a player, he practically re-wrote the record
books. Now, in his fourth year as assistant coach, he's continuing
his reputation for point production. Adams' b asketball savvy has
been a big asset in recruiting prospective college material. In his
role as coach of the fre shman team, he has molde d th e foundation
for Eastern's basketball suc cess.
Until last season , Adam s and
Baechtold ranked 1-2 in alltime career scoring at Eastern.
But together, they helped
erase this standing by developing Eddie Bodkin into the most
prolific sc orer ever.
After earning Ohio Valley
Conference honors three consecutive years, Adams' famo us
No. 40 jersey was retired, making him the only play er to be
so honored at East ern.
An AAU All-American in
1959, when he made the AllArmy team and participated in
the Pan-American Games in
Chicago, Adams was known a s
the world's travelingest ba sketball player" three years ago
when h e toured the U.S .S.R.
with the State Departmentsponsored American team, and
Jater journeyed to Turin, Italy,
to p lay in the World Tournament there with the Denver
D-C Truckers.
Jack Adams
Four years ago, Adams made world headlines again when h e
scored 56 points and pulled off 28, rebounds in a single game w ith
the Cleveland Pipers against Seattle in the AAU National Basketball Leagu e.
His performance established three records and tied another.
His point-production topped the Cleveland team record of 42
points, held by teammate, Dan Swartz, and bettered the leag ue
mark of 54 set by Dick Boushka, of Wichita. His 20 fi eld goals
( of just 24 attempts) and 16 of 18 free throws were also team
records.
H e was elected Most Valuable Player for the Pipers that year
and also was named the Most Valuable Player of the AAU Tournament at the close of the season. He was with the Pipers from
June 1960 until ,January 1962.
Before then, Adams played two seasons with the Peoria Caterpillars, with whom he scored 42 points in a single gamee for a team
record there.
17
�In 1962, when the new professional American Basketball
League was formed, Adams was traded to t he New York Tapers,
where he averaged about 18 points a game. He was one of the
highest-paid players in the league.
Individ ual game records include (1) most points, 49; (2) most
rebounds, 27 ; (3) most field goals, 17 ; (4) most free throws attempted , 28; and (5) most free throws made, 21.
Upon graduation from Eastern in 1956, he served three years
as a Regular Army officer in the field artillery. After completion
of the officer's basic field artillery course at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, he
served at Fort Ord, California, from S eptember, 1956, until April,
'58 , when he was transferr ed to Ft. Lee, Virginia. It was at Ft.
Lee that h e made the All-Army team and later the Pan-American
team.
A native of Pittsburgh, Ky ., a little community near London,
he played high school ball a t Hazel Green.
Jack is married t o the former Barbara Ball, of Har lan, a
cheerleader and classmate of his in college. Their son, Gregory
Sullivan , six, was a n a tional fi g ure at the age of three weeks when
he was awarded a n Eastern Kentucky basketball scholarship by
Paul McBrayer.
DAVID HUFFSTETLER
ATHLETIC TRAINER
David Morton Huffstetler joined the Eastern staff last fall
as the University's first full -time athletic trainer.
A native of Maryville, Tennessee,
Dave received the B. S. degree in
education at Maryville College in 1964,
before going to Indiana University
where he earned the M. S. degree in
athletic training in August.
An all - sports athlete in high
school, Dave had his college football
career ended in an automobile accident in 1960. He served as stud ent
trainer at Maryville d uring the 1962-'63
seasons and was named head trainer
t here in 1963-'64 while still an undergraduate.
While at Indiana, he was a graduate assistant under head trainer Warren
G. Ar iail and aide Dwayne "Spike"
Dixon.
At Eastern, Dave will also serve
Dave Huffstetler
as an instructor of first aid and training in addition to his training chores for all varsity sports. An
avid sports fan, he enjoys huntin g, fishing, hiking, and camp craft.
Dave is single.
18
�BILL WALTON
GRADUATE ASSISTANT
After three seasons of diagnosing the opponents as a player,
Walton moves to a similar position this season in the capacity
of graduate assistant coach. A s a player,
Walton earned a reputation for coming
up with the clutch plays. After directing the Colonels' attack last season, h e
was honored on the first team All-Ohio
Valley Conference team. Speed was his
forte and Baechtold and Adams decided
the Charleston , West Va ., n ative's leadership could be carried over to benefit
this year's squad. Walton's chief assign ment will be the development of the
Colonels' guard position. He averaged 14
points a game last season and earned
three letters, two of t h em as a Colonel
reg ular.

THE YEAR OF THE NEW LOOK
This is the year of the New Look at Eastern and basketball
Coach Jim Baechtold is contributin g his share to t he trend. But
t he chan ge on the basketball court wasn 't on the drawing board
to begin with. Baechtold's new look is out of sheer necessity.
To begin with, he had to replace the nucle us of last year's
squad that finished with a 16-9 record and second place in the Ohio
Valley Conference. That nucleus includ ed the most prolific sc orer in
Eastern history. Eddie Bodkin, a
6-7 forward scored 1,587 points in
t hree years, for a career average
of 21.2 points per game. A side from
Bodkin , 6-8 Jerry Bisbey and 6-9
John Carr are missing from th is '
year's squad , completely erasing the
Colonels' rebounding strength. In
a ddition, All-OVC guard Bill Walton
is gone, leaving an obvious hole in
th e backcourt.
Thus, th e New Look.
For example, w hat once was Eastern's forte- reboundingnow is p ractically gone from the lineup. That problem falls .solely
on the shoulder s of one, Mr. Garfield Smith. Baechtold expresses
confidence in the 6-7 junior but stresses the fact that he must live
up to his potential of the Colonels are to be considered title cont enders.
To counter the lack of size, Baechtold plans to employ a
strategy unfamiliar to Colonel fa ns in recent years. Namely,
SPEED. Hand-in-hand with this new look will be a pressing
defense.
"We' ll pick them up when they get off the bus," said Baechtold
jokingly .
Those two vacated forward spots also posed a question mark
for Baechtold and a ssistant Coach Jack Adams. Dick Clark,
although only 6-3, appeared to have an inside track for one of the
slots. Clark utilizes an a ccurate jump shot to its fulle st and his
quick ness and jumping ability make him a natural for the New
Look attack.
" Dick is ,a n explosive baH player with plenty of hustle," according to Baechtold.
Clark is one of only two seniors on the squad. The other
ve teran , Doug Clemmons, saw some starting duty last season at
g uard and must be r eckoned with a full -time assignment this year.
"C lemmons has the speed and desire for playing defense, and
should fit in real weH with our plans this year," Baechtoid said.
20
�Compounding Eastern's experience problem is the fact tha t
there are only three juniors on the team. Jerry Jones, 6-7 , will be
used as a backup man for Smith.
The New Look becomes obvious with a glance at the current
Eastern roster. In a lineup of 14 names, there are nine with the
designation, "Soph." That represents sophomore but it also stands
for inexperience, the biggest problem confrontin g the Colonels
this season.
"Nin e sophomores, that doesn't look like much to start th e
season with," moans Baechtold.
Notice he said, "doesn't LOOK like much." But it should
be pointed out that the sophomores are an impressive bunch.
Especially (and here's where the smiles come in) Bobby Washington . Baechtold doesn 't have to search to find accolades for
the young left-hander.
Adjectives like "tremendous . . . excellent . . . wonderful"
flow freely when Baechtold talks about Washington.
"Washington is a better passer than Bob Cousy ,'' he says flatly .
Granted, that's saying a lot, but one look at Washington crossing the opponents would agree. The 5-11 Lexington Dunbar standout can thread a needle from his guard slot, either by shooting or
passing.
But Washington isn't the only bright spot arriving from Adams
freshman unit. Battling for the other forward position is Clenantt
Arnold , Jerry Godbey and Gary Paul.
" All three of these boys are capable of breaking into the lineup ," Baechtold says.
For a better picture, here's the New Look in capsule form:
Center: Smith appears to have the pivot spot nailed down.
He's big, (6-7, 215 pounds) rugged and possesses a good package
of moves around the basket. Capable of earning a starting spot
is Jones.
Forward: Clark will be flanking Smith on one side, but the
other position is wide open. It's been narrowed down to Godbey
and Arnold with both expected to see plenty of action.
Guard: Washington and ? That's what it amounts to. Top
contenders are Clemmons and Joe Prats. Baechtold calls Prats
the best outside shot on the team and has indicated he and Washington could provide a sophomore flavor in the backcourt.
The Season: "Our lack of experience may be evident in our
early games but the potential is there and the team should be in
good shape by mid-season." Look for plenty of speed, a pressin g
defense and a well-balanced offense.
It's called the New Look.

�MEET THE COLONELS
Clenantt Arnold
Sophomore . .. Forward ... 20 .. . 6-4 .. . 200 ... N o Letters .
Wy oming, Ohio.
42
A definite candidate for
a starting position, Arnold
played at both guard and forward on the freshman squad
last year . Singled out for his
defen sive ability , Arnold is quick and
has excellent timing. A good outside
shot, he has the strength and a gility to
move under the boards when n eeded.
The ru gged sophomore h as de ceptive
moves and is at his best when driving
toward the basket. A good ball-handler
and passer, Arnold should fit in well
with the Colonels fast-break attack.
One of three sophomores competing for
a forward spot, he has the physica l and
mental tools for greatness .
John Bleidt
Sophomore ... Guard . . . 19 . .. 5-11 . . . 152 . .. N o Letters ...
Louisville, K y.
53
A non-scholarship player,
Bleidt was advanced to the
v arsity this season because of
his desire to succeed. Baechtold calls him a definite asset
because his spirit and cooperation are
contagio us. Sa w limited action a s a
fr eshman. His attributes include quickness with good over-all speed, in a ddition to a ccu racy a t long r an ge. A good
team player, Bleidt pa sses up many
scoring opportunities t o set up his teammates. Baechtold feel s he h as the
tale nt to de velop into a sound gu a rd.
Size is h is bi gges t disadva ntage.
28
�Paul Bryant
Sophomore .. . Guard . . . 19 ... 6-3 ... 200 ... No Letters . . .
Irvine,Kentucky.
14
In high school, Bryant was
tabbed for football stardom.
But the Eastern coaching
staff felt he had the potential
to develop on the basketball floor. A good competitor and
rugged rebounder, Bryant is noted for
his aggressive st yle wh ich should b lend
well the Colonels' plans this season . A
good outside shot, Bryant is learning
to utilize his tremendous strength under
the boards. He has surprising speed
for his size, a nd could be a key man
in the fa stbreak offense. His best offensive weapon is the jump shot but
he's showing rapid improvement in
every phase of the gam e.
Dick Clark
Senior . . . Forward .. 22 . . . 6-3 . . . 185 . . . Two Letters . . .
N orthBal timore,Ohio.
•1
32
One of two seniors who
will be called on to lead
the squa d , Clark is a key
player in the Colonels bid
'for a successf ul season
The fastest forward to play under
Baechtold, Clark is at his best when
driving for the basket . . . An occasional starter last year, Clark has the
ability to develop into a fine scorer .. .
After averaging W.4 p oints per game as
a freshman, the likeable Colonel was
red-shirted during the 19 63 -64 season
due to a back ailment. Deadly from
the outside, Clark also is a good rebo,mder for hi s size. With a gr eat desire
to succeed, Clar k should Prove to be
the leader of the Colonel team this
season .
29
�Doug Clemmons
Senior . .. Guard . . . 22 .. . 6-1 . . . 180 . . . Two Letters . . .
Edmonton,l{entucky.
24
The other senior, Clemmons will be called on to
supply leadership on a team
accen t ed by youth.
His
biggest problem so far has
been the fact that he won't shoot
enough.
An
aggressive
defensive
player, Clemmons will be inserted
when the opponents have a high-scoring guard. An inspired athlete, he
gives 100 per cent effort every game.
Whil e possessing a good outside shot,
the senior guard is at his best w hen
driv ing for the basket. Could be the
driving fo,rce behind the Colonels pressing defense . . . when you see the ball,
yo u 'll probably see Clemmons.
Tom Crotty
Sophomore . . . Guard ... 19 . .. 6-2 . . . 182 ... No Letter . . .
Wyoming, Ohio.
Io
One of three players on
the varsity who will be playing w ithout a scholarship this
sea son. Crotty has impressed
the Eastern coaching staff
with his desire and hustle. His top suit
is d efense but has the makings of an
offensive threat. He must improve on
his outside shooting to become an effec tive gu ard. Crotty is big and agile and
p ossesses deceptive speed which he
utilizes to t he fullest. Most dangerous
on the fast break. His desire and det ermination set the theme for this year's
t eam.
30
�Jerry Godbey
Sophomore . .. Forward ... 21 ... 6-5 .. . 190 ... No Letters . ..
Eubank, Kentucky.
12
A fine attitude and a
desire to play have made
Godbey a candidate for one
of the startin g forward slots.
. . . The growth of one inch
an d the addition of twenty pounds h ave
aid ed the native Kentuckian in his
bid for a starting berth. Continued
improvement in his rebounding and defensive game could find Godbey excelling on the hardwood before the
current season r uns its course.
Jerry Jones
. 22 . . . 6-7 . . . 212 . . . No Letters . . .
Junior . .. Center
Richmond, Ii:entucky.
41
Strong and agressive, J ones
should be ready to make
his mark in the Colonel
scorebook. The second leading scorer on t he fres hm an
squad two years ago, Jones has pl::lyed
in the shadow of boys w ho are now
gone from the Eastern campus. A local
product, Jones started in two season s
of play for former Colonel cager Buddy
Roberts at Madison Central High School.
Th e burly youngster led the Indians to
the semi finals of t h e Eleventh Regiona:
Tournament. Impressed w ith his desire
and improvement, Baech t old feels that
Jones is ready realizing his potential.
31
�Gary Paul
Sophomore ... Forward ... 19 . .. 6-5 ... 195 ... No Letters ...
Louisville, Iientucky.
34
Possessing good speed and
jumping ability, Paul is expected to see considerab le action at the forward slo t. The
sophomore forward has a
good outside shot and is developing a
good driving game . . . Although showing flashes of brilliance on numerous
occasions, Paul needs to develop consistency to become a threat to OVC
opponents . . . Baechtold fee ls that the
Louisville yo uth will add greatly to his
squad after he gains confidence and
experience in varsity competition.
Joe Prats
Sophomore ... Guard . . . 20 ... 5-11 ... 175 ... No Letters ...
Mansfield, Ohio.
52
Baechtold calls Prats the
best outside shot on the team.
The Ohio native counters his
lack of size by shooting over
the opponents. Could carry
the offensive load when the Colonels
face a zone defen se. A master with the
head and sho ulder takes, Prats can
leave a defensive man standin g and
drive in £or an easy layup . Speed and
quickness are his forte and he could
give the Colonels a sophomore combination at guard a long with Washin gto n.
A good ball-handler and excellent
passer, he provides an excellent hub in
a fast break situation.
32
�Garfield Smith
Junior .. . Center .. . 20 . . . 6-7 . . . 215 . .. No Letters .. .
Campbellsville, K entucky.
4
Smith could be the link
between mediocrity and sue- ~,cess for this year's team.
The rebounding load will fall
almost entirely on his sho ulders. At 6-7, Smith must supply the
board strength and defense against
taller opponents. Baechtold feels Smith
has the tools, too. He's big, stron g and
has exceptional jumping ability. Good
moves make his a definite threat under
the basket. Smith was impressive as a
sophomore but must attain a degree of
consistency. He has the confidence to
become an outstanding center. Assured
of a starting berth.
Bobby W ashiugton
Sophomore . .. Guard . . . 19 . .. 5- 11 .. . 156 . . . No Letters ...
Lexington, n:entucky.
44
With
q uickness,
speed,
jumpin g ability, and natural
savvy Washington is the key
to the Colonels offensive
attack ... "The finest guard
prospect that I have had the pleasure
to coach," says Baechtold of the untried sophomore. An all -state perform er with Lexington Dunbar, Wa hington possesses treme ndou s ball handling ability when leading a fast break
or when setting up an offen sive play .
. . . The ability to know play situation s,
to be able to cope w ith all problem s,
and to shoot from the outside a re othe r
attributes that Washingto n has at hi s
command . "This boy is headed for
greatness," Baechtold adds.

An account of the resource
The Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) Photograph Collection consists of photographs and negatives of students, faculty, and events at EKU. Subjects range from individual faculty headshots and classroom pictures to commencement and candid everyday student life photos. Organizational pictures, shots of campus in general, athletics and other official photos taken from the university photographer are also included. Many of these images were taken for publication in marketing materials or for use in the school newspaper, yearbook and alumni magazines. The collection also includes snapshots taken by employees attending events.
The collection may be used for all types of research, keeping in mind that individuals are often unidentified, so search broadly. All images available have been described here, but not all are scanned. Photographs with only a description can be requested by filling out a duplication request (see the link in the menu at the top of the page).

non-school personnel, bu siness administration, music education and biology.
A J·o int Doctoral Program in Education, sponsored in c-ooperation with the
Dr. Robert R. Martin
University of Kentucky, permits students to continue in residence at Eastern for one academic year beyond the master's degree.
Founded as Eastern Kentucky State Normal School in 1906
by act of the State Legislature, Eastern was created to educate
teachers for the school of the Commonwealth. The institution
annually produces more teachers than any other Kentucky college
or university.
The physical plant has undergone building and renovation programs totaling over $50 million since 1960. During this p eriod
every existing major campus facility has been remodeled or completely reconstructed.
But perhaps the most striking growth has been in the student
body. E ast ern 's enrollment (8,309) has more than tripled in the
last eight years.
A well-rounded sports program, both intercollegiate and intramural, is sponsored and encouraged by the University. Eastern is
represented in intercollegiate competition in baseball, basketball,
cross-country, football , golf, rifle, swimming, tennis and track.
Eastern is administered by a Board of Reg en ts, of which Dr .
Harry M. Sparks, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, is
ex-officio chairman. Sixth president of the institution is Eastern
alumnus Dr. Robert R. Martin.

�DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS
GLENN E. PRESNELL
Glenn Presnell, former Nebraska All-America halfback and
long-time Eastern football coach, became Eastern 's first f ulltime ath letic director in No vember, 1963, when he resigned his
grid coaching p osition to accept his new ass ignment.
In ten years at the Maroon helm,
he guided his teams to 42, wins, 49
losses, and three ties, winning one OVC
title outright, and gaining a four-way
share of the crown in 1962., the only
Kentucky coach ever to claim more
than one OVC halo.
His first year as head coach, 1954
~
was h is best. His Maroons went u ndefeated in season play and lost to
~
Omaha University 7-6 in what is still
-,- ...
regarded by many as the greatest T angerin e Bowl game ever played in Orlando, F1'orida .
Born at Gilead, Nebraska, Presnell
was a n All-America halfback at Nebraska, a nd played in the East-West
AU-Star Game in San Francisco at the
end of his college career in 1927.
Later when the P ortsmo uth Spartans and the D etroit Lion s in the National L eague, he was an all-league performer.
Against Green B ay in 1934, the popular Presnell kicked a 54yard field goal, which stood as the N.F.L. record for 19 years,
a nd is still the secon d longest in the L eague's history. T he NFL's
1964 yearbook cited Presnell as one of the key men in D etroit's
1935, championship.
Pres nell began h is collegiate coaching career in 1937 as backfield coach at the University of K a n sas. In 1938, he returned to
Nebraska as bac kfi eld coach, and in 1942 h e was n am e d h ead coach
there. Nebraska played Stanford in the Rose Bowl in 1941, while
he was backfield coach of the Cornhuskers.
In 1943 and '44, Presnell coached the backfield at North Carolin a Pre -Flight, while serving as a naval officer. H e returned to
Nebraska in 1946, befor e comin g to E astern in the fa ll of 1947.
He was named h ead coach in 1954.
H e was player-coach of the pro Ironton (Ohio) Tanks from
1928--3 0. In 1929, and '30, h e also coach ed th e Russell, Kentucky,
High School football, basketball and baseball teams, and the girls'
basketball team.
Reports indicate Presnell, up for induction once previously,
may soon be inducted into the Professional Foot ba ll H all of Fame.
He marired the for m er Lizbeth Gehrling of Ironton, Ohio, in
1929, and found in her a most fa ithful fan and suppor ter. They
have one son, Da n ny, w h o teaches at M adison Central High

The Ohio Valley Conference
In 1941, foresighted men had visions ,o f an Ohio Valley Conference. Sports writers speculated about the impending division
of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Ath1etic Conference. Virtually all
agreed it was just a matter of time until the division took place
and a new athletic conference was formed.
Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and America was
plunged into World War II.
Seven years later, after the hostilities had ceased, a pre-war
dream became a post-war reality. The "Big Five" of the K.I.A.C.
withdrew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.
Making the move were Western Kentucky State College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray State College, Morhead State
College and the University of Louisville. They were joined by
Evansville College and shortly thereafter, by Tennesssee Tech and
Marshall College.
Purpose of the O.V.C., as set forth in its constitution, is "to
regulate, controI, and promote all the recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics in institutions represented."
Through a gradual pr,ocess, the Ohio Valley Conference was to
become a league of Kentucky and T ennessee state colleges. Middle
Tennessee State College joined the rolls in 1952, East Tennessee
State University in 1957 and Austin Peay State College in the
spring of 1962. They replaced Louisville, which became an independent in 1949, and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in
1952.
In 1963, the league took another step forward by appointing
Arthur L. Guepe, former football coach and athletic director at
Virginia and Vanderbilt Universities, as the OVC 's first full-time
commissioner.

�ALUMNI COLISEUM
HOME OF THE COLONELS
�COLISEUM ATTRACTS NEARLY A MILLION
IN FOUR YEARS OF EXISTENCE
Years ahead of its time, Alumni Coliseum stands proudly on
a so uthern slope of the Eastern campus. This massive physical
olant, a great triumph in architectural design and a new concept
in combination structures, announces the general theme of this
r a pid-growing institution of higher education.
The culmination of years of planning and construction, this
athletic-education palace attracted nearly a million persons inside
its confines during the fourth full year of existence. This number
includes more than 200,000 basketball enthu siasts who h ave watch ~d
the Colonels compile a 31-12 worksheet there, and others who
attended conventions, workshoos, seminars. and cultural programs.
It does not include most of the nearly 26.000 students who n articipated in regular physical education classes and those recreational activities using its facilities the past four years.
The Coliseum is a tribute to the 17,000 alumni who have gradu ated from Eastern and to the thousands who will be trained by
Eas tern in future years.
Since that historic day on June 1, 1961 , when Dr. Lyndon B.
J oh n son , Vice President of the United States. pitched the first
spadeful of earth near the Coll ege dairy b arn, the world has been
aware of the c-o nstruction of this great building. Technical aspects
of Alumni Coliseum are truly amazing. The laminated crossarches of the world's largest roof of its kind span over 309 feet and
provide for outstanding unobstructed viewing of a variety of events
which will be held in the main auditorium. A total of 626.276
board feet of Imber form the 170 beams and roof deckin g which
arch gracefully 81 feet above the floor level. T he warmth of southern pine finished in its natural beauty, provides a perfect atmosphere in this great arena.
In addition to the main auditorium, the physical education-athletic plant contains four basketball courts in the auxiliary gymnasium on the east end; eight classrooms; twenty offices; both
indoor and outdoor swimming pools ; shower and locker rooms; a
projection room, and many other multi-purpose facilities.
The main arena seats more than 6,500 for basketball games and
a pproximately 8,000 for other programs. Ultimate seating capicity
for b asket.ball will be 10,000, and for other programs, about 12,000,
A hydraulic-operated stage is located at the east end of the
arena.
Alumni Coliseum forms the nucleus of a rapidly-evolving,
thoughtfully -planned sports center. The 1,3 00-car capacity, multipurpose paved parking area in front of the building also serves as a
marching area for the College band and the R.O.T.C. unit and as
recreation and physical education area.
The compact sports center also includes a new nine-lane, allweather rubber-asphalt track, which encircles a practice football
field; a wo men's hockey field; 12 all-weather tennis courts, lighted
for night play ; and the "Turkey" Hughes Baseball Field. Future
plans envision a new football stadium in the immediate vicinity
of all other athletic facilities.

���GUY STRONG
HEAD BASKETBALL COACH
Guy Strong is a winner. Pictures and trophies in his Alumni
Coliseum Office imply it, but his record in basketball coaching
proves it.
In five years as a collegiate coach, his teams have won 87
games while losing only 31 , a percentage of . 737. This year, his
first at E astern, he is faced with rebuilding the University's basketball program. Eas tern suffered it's worst season in history last
year with a 5-18 record.
But he's accustomed to challenges such as this. In fact, h e
h as conquered them before as a player and coach on all levels
of competition.
Excellent examples are championships in the Southeastern Confere nce, the Ohio Valley Conference and the National Collegiate
Athletic Association as a player. And then there's the NCAA
college div ision title and n atio nal "Coach of the Year" honors as
a coach.
It was back in 1948 that Strong, a spindly guard from Irvine
High School, received his initiation into championship basketball.
Irvin e, a small t own located just 12 miles from the Eastern
campus, reached the heights a ll communities in basketball-concious
Kentucky dream of in 1948.
It w as then that Strong guided Irvine's Golden Eagles to a
berth in the State High School basketball tournament. Since then,
Strong's name has been synonomous with winning basketball.
From Irvine, Strong w ent to the University of Kentucky and
received another taste of victory under Coach Adolph Rupp. Strong
was a member of Rupp's 195,1 team that swept to the SEC t itle and
t hen captured the coveted NCAA trophy.
Ee later transferred to E astern and took a partial load while
wor king toward an Army Commission. After a stint in the service,
he came back to Eastern , played one more year , and received his
B.S. degree in 1955. E astern won the OVC his senior year.
Strong compiled a 3.4 standing at Eastern and is a charter
member of OAKS, senior men's campus honorary society. He ret urned to Eastern during summers and received the M.A. in Princi palship three years ago.
Following his graduation from Eastern , Strong took over head
coaching duties at Richmond's Madison High School for one year
l:iefore goin g to Louisville Male.
13
�His best season at Male came in 1961 when the Bulldogs compiled an 18.3 mark.
Strong broke into college coaching at Virginia Tech. He tutored
the Tech freshman team to an 11-1 record before being named head
coach at Kentucky Wesleyan College in Owensboro.
In his first year, the P anthers registered a 16-8 reeord. The
following season , Wesley a n slumped to a 10-12 record, but it merely
supplied incentive for the dedicated young coach.
In 1966, Strong shuffled his young team, came up with a winning
ccmbination , and stepped into the national spotlight.
The Panthers won 24 of 30 games that season. And one of those
victories was heard throughout the basketball world. Wesleyan
defeated powerful Southern Illinois, 54-51 , to capture the NCAA
college division championship.
Strong calls that victory his greatest moment in basketball.
' has been quite a success in
He also
other sports. He has two golf trophies
for "Holes-in-One" and shoots consistantly in the low 80's. In baseball,
he was a pitcher and first baseman. He
had a lifetime hitting average of .325
and once hit .385 while playing at
u. K.
But one of his favorite memories
came in semi-pro baseball. He outlasted Steve Hamilton, now with the
New York Yankees, in a 6-5, 15-inning
pitching duel.
Strong played with
Irvine in the Bluegrass league and the
(Louisville) Pleasant Pats of the Metropolitan Amateur Baseball A ssociation.
The Pleasant Pats won two Kentucky
Amateur Baseball titles behind his
pitching.
Guy Strong
Strong married his high school
sweetheart- the former Aleen Noland.
They have two daughters, Mina, 13, and Nancy 3.
Now 19 years in athletics and hundreds of winners' circles
la ter, the 36-year-old Kentuckians carries to Eastern one of the
most impressive records in college basketball. And it all boil s
down to one simple fact:
Guy Strong is a winner.

�JACK HISSON
ASSISTANT BASKETBALL COACH
Jack Hissom and football coach Roy Kidd have been on the
same athletic staffs before. T hey were both employed by the
Richmond Independent Board of Education and Kidd, head coach
at M adison, asked Hissom to coach the junior high football team
at Richmond Elementary School.
Today they are on the same athletic staff again-b u t Hissom
has a new boss. Coach Gu y Strong recruited the 1958 E astern
gradu ate as his assista nt basketball coach.
Hissom , a former head coach at Lees Junior College a nd
McCreary County High School , has a lifetime coaching record of
116 wins against 87 losses .
While at L ees Junior Coliege, the Portsmo ut h , Ohio native
compiled a 51-41 won-lost record against the best junior college
competition available. Hissom was voted the Kentuckiana Ju nior
College Conference "Coach of the Year" in 1960- 61 and ser ved on
the United Press International All-America Board.
His 1962 team played in the
16th Regional Play-offs of the
National Junior College Tournament. That year, Hissom's
explosive offensive unit aver,aged 93.6 points per game,
third best amo n g n atio nal
junior colleges.
Following the 1962 season ,
he went to McCre ary Cou nty
H ig h School and built one of
Kentucky 's high school powers.
H e groomed such collegiate
prospects as Roger Cordell,
who la ter starred on S trong's
small college n ational champions at Kentucky Wesleya n.
He guided McCreary County
to t he Kentucky High School
State T our n ament as champions of the Twelfth Region in
1964. In overall prep tournament competitio n, his teams
were 22-8.
Hissom is a former Marine
and a veteran of the Korean
Jack Hissom
W ar.
He is married to the former L a ur a Elli s, who was an Eastern
cheerlead er in her collegiate days. T hey have four children, Terry
J ill ( 10) , John Steph en (9) , J erry Rucker (8) and J amie Lynn ( 1).

�DON HARVILLE, GRADUATE ASSISTANT
Donnie .Harv ille assumes a new r•ole
in the E astern basketball program this
year as a graduate assist,a nt coach. He
has served as varsity manager the past
four years.
A complete student of the game, his
first love has always been basketball.
Height prohibited him from purs uing a
college career as a player, but Harville
has a reputation in the Alumni Coliseum
as "the best sho t in the building."
He was a star basketball player at
Harlan High School and led his school to
several 52nd District Championships and
berths in the 13th Region. He also led his
school to district and regional baseball
championships and one trip to the Ken tucky High School Baseball Tournament.
Yet, he found time to be a valuable member of H arlan's football program as the
Don Harville
manager.
Coach Guy Strong will utilize Harville as a scout and as an
assistant to freshman coach Jack Hissom.
Harville's brother, Bobby, is E astern's offensive football coach.
DAVID HUFFSTETLER.) ATHLETIC TRAINER
Since David Huffstetler became E astern's first full -time ath letic trainer in 1965, the number of Colonels missing games with
injuries has been reduced to a minimum.
Huffstetler's journey into athletic
training was partially a result of misfortune.
As a wingback at Maryville
College in 1960, he was forced to cut
short his athletic career because of injuries suffered in an automobile accident.
He volunteered to serve as a student
trainer at Maryville in 1962-63 and was
named head trainer there in 1964 while
obtaining the B. S. degree in education.
Huffstetler entered the University of
Indiana graduate school in 1965 and
earned the M. S. de gree in athletic training. He obtained excellent practice experience
under Warren Ariail and
Dwayne "Spike" Dixon, Indiana 's high ly
respected training team.
His interest in athletics began at
Maryville High School, where he was an
All-Blound County football player. He also participated in basketball and baseball.
In addition to directing the Colonels' conditi,oning program
Huffstetler serves as an instructor in first aid.
He holds professional affiliations with the National Athletic
Trainers Association and the American College of Sports Medicine.

�Prospectus 1967-68
Happiness is a "Strong" Basketball Team
Eastern 's bask etball progr am will tak e a "n ew-look'' this
season under the direction of first-year coach Guy Strong.
Strong, who guided Kentucky Wesleyan to the Na tional Collegiate Athletic Association college division championship in 1966,
returns to his alma mater to carry on a winning tradition he helped
establish. He led the Colonels to an Ohio Valley Conference
championship as a seni•o r in 1955.
He inherits a team that posted a
5-18 overall and 2-12 league record ,
the worst won-loss total in Eastern 's
history. But Strong isn ' t ready to
call it quits- he returns eight varsity
athletes and six prospects from a
freshmen team called by many the
best in Eastern history.
Lost via graduation were Dick
Clark, who averaged 17.4 points per
game and signed a professional contract with Minnesota of the American Basketball Association , and
three-year letterman Doug Clemmons.
The mos t talked abou t men in the Colonel camp are junior
guard Bobby Washington, who earned a berth on the All-OVC
team in his first varsity season, 6-7 senior center Garfield Smith
and sophomore guard Fielding "Toke" Coleman.
Co-Captain Washington, the 5-11 floor-leader and passing-whiz
from Lexington Dunbar, was the league's fifth leading scorer with
a 17.5 average. He also was selected to the OVC Christmas Tournament team and was mentioned on several All-Am erica checklists.
Smith was possibly the most underrated player in the conference last year. He was Eastern's leading scorer with a 17.8
average, fourth in the OVC, and was second in league rebounds
with a 13.4 average per game.
Coleman is one of the most discussed sophomores ever to play
in the league. The 6-5 jumping-jack, a three-time all-starter at
Harrison County High School, led the Colonel frosh in scoring with
17
�18 points and in rebounding with 13 per game. Although he is
one of the tallest men on the sq uad, Strong w ill utilize his speed
and quickness in t he back court.
However, Colema n hasn 't won the position yet. Junior co-captain Joe Prats, who was a part-time starter last year , has the edge
with experience. He averaged 7.1 points per game and was usuall y
assigned the opponents top outside scoring threat.
Also returning from last year 's first-five is forward Jerry
Godbey, who was red-shirted until the final nine games of the
season. He has made noticeable impressions on the coaching staff
defensively and showed signs of offensive potential last year averaging 7.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.
That leaves one forward position without a na me at the top
of the depth chart. Junior Gary P aul, 6-2 j unior Paul Bryant,
6-8 Boyd Lynch , 6-5 sophomore Chester Rose and 6-3 sophomore
Willie Woods a ppear to be the top nominees. Rose and Wood s
are former K entucky prep All-Staters.
Other sophomores slated for duty are 6-1 Leon Bailey , 6-3 Ed
Hare, 6-2 Dan Jordan and 6-0 Larry T runnel l.
"I think we'll be an improved ball club," said Strong. "But
our success will lie with t he development of our young players.
We're play ing outstanding teams in our first three games (East
Tennessee, Dayton and Marshall) and our kids will ha ve to come
on strong to be rea dy for this type of competition.
"Offensively, we're looking for more balanced scoring," said
Strong. "We'll run a disciplined offense a nd an aggressive manto-man defense. "
Eastern meets East Tennessee, a definite pre-season contender
for conference honors, in the Ohi,o Valley Conference Tournament
in Nashville, Tennessee, December 1.
In addition to Dayton and Marshall, other top non-conference
games are scheduled with Tampa , Miami of Florida , Ball State,
St. Francis, Virginia Tech and Miami of Ohio.

Title
A name given to the resource
EKU Color Transparencies
Description
An account of the resource
This collection includes some of the earliest color images of Eastern's campus and faculty and students. Subjects include homecoming, classroom activities, student life and campus scenes. Most of the collection consists of 2x2 and 3x3 mounted slides, but also includes some film that was never mounted as well as some large format slides. The University seems to have used color transparencies for the color images that appeared at the front of the yearbook.

An account of the resource
This collection includes some of the earliest color images of Eastern's campus and faculty and students. Subjects include homecoming, classroom activities, student life and campus scenes. Most of the collection consists of 2x2 and 3x3 mounted slides, but also includes some film that was never mounted as well as some large format slides. The University seems to have used color transparencies for the color images that appeared at the front of the yearbook.

What's the
University
Gd Key plan?
for
senior
men
only
The University Key Plan is one of the brightest new
ideas to reach college campuses in a long, long time.
It's definitely an "in" plan--a plan that ties in
perfectly with all of the other ambitious plans college
students are making for the future.
We're talking particularly about the male elite on
our campuses: college seniors and graduate students
- - the group that's on the threshold of good jobs,
marriages, raising children and buying homes.
If you're a member of this elite group, you owe it
to yourself and your future to find out about the
University Key Plan. It can show you how to safeguard your good future with a sound life insu rance
and savings program.
Developed by Kentucky Central Life Insurance
Company after more than two years of research,
the University Key Plan makes it possible for you to
start your life insurance program today and not pay
any premiums until you begin your business career.
And don't worry about military exclusions. There
aren't any.
For more information, write or phone the University Key Division, Kentucky Central Life Insurance
Company, Lexington, Kentucky.
(And if you'd like to represent Kentucky Central
as a University Key man, let us hear from you, too.
It's a great career.)

�EASTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSITY
P erhaps one word best describes Eastern Kentucky University.
Growth.
Over $60 million in construction, the tripling of the student body and complete reorganization of the academic structure has taken place since 1960.
That was when Dr. Robert R. Martin assumed the presidency of Eastern, becoming its sixth chief executive.
With university status effective July 1, 1966, Eastern was reorganized into five colleges and a graduate
school. Curricula in the College of App lied Arts and Technology, Arts and Sciences, Business and Education lead
to the Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts or Associate of Arts degree.
Central University College offers preparatory curricula for the first two years of the student's college career,
providing a liberal base for a major in one of the advanced col leges.
The master's degree is offered in education, English, history, guidance and counseling for non-school personnel, business administration, music education and biology. A Joint Doctoral Program in Education, sponsored
in cooperation with the Un iversity of Kentucky, permits students to continue in residence at Eastern for one academic year beyond the master's degree.
Founded as Eastern Kentucky State Normal School in 1906 by act of the State Legislature, Eastern was created
to educate teachers for the schools of the Commonwealth. The institution annually produces more teachers than any
other Kentucky college or university.
Since 1960 every existing major campus facility has been remodeled or completely reconstructed .
But perhaps the most striking growth has been in the student body. Eastern's enro ll ment- exceeding 9,000
this fall - has more than tripled in the last eight years.
A well-rounded sports program, both intercollegiate and intramural, is sponsored and encouraged by the
University. Eastern is represented in intercollegiate competition in baseball, basketball, cross-country, football,
golf, rifle, swimming, tennis and track.
The university is administered by a Board of Regents, of which Wendell P. Butler, State Superintendent of
Public In struction, is ex officio chairman.

questions not answered in this brochure, feel free
to contact the Office of Public Affairs, with offices
located in the Coates Administration Building
(Telephone 62,2-2301 and 622-2302) .

�EASTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSITY
Growth-in quantity and quality- has been the
theme ,a t Eastern K entucky University.
The
quantity speaks for itself. With an enrollment
of 9,450> students, the university's student body has
more than tripled since 1960. As a result, new
dormitories and large, well-equipped academic
structures are being built.
But the quality of Eastern can be measured only
by its students. Today, the Eastern student is provided with a firm ,a cademic background. More
research facilities are available. The quality of
its faculty continues to grow.
The total growth began in 1960 when Dr. Robert
R. Martin assumed the presidency of Eastern, becoming its sixth chief executive.
With university status effective July 1, 1966,
Eastern was reorganized into five colleges and
a graduate school. Curricula in the Colleges of
Applied Arts and Technology, Arts and Sciences,
Business and Education lead to the Bachelor of
Science, Bachelor of Arts or Associate of Arts
degree. Central University College offers preparatory curricula for the first two years of the
student's college career, providing a liberal base
for a major in -o ne of the advanced colleges. The
master's degree is offered in education, English,
history, guidance and counseling for non-school
personnel, business administration, music education -a nd biology. A Joint Doctoral Program in
Education, sponsored in cooperation with the University of Kentucky, permits students to continue
in residence at Eastern for one academic year beyo nd the master's degree.
Founded as Eastern Kentucky State Normal
School in 1906 by act of the State Legislature,
Eastern was created to educ-ate teachers for the
schools of the Commonwealth. The institution annually produces more teachers than any other
Kentucky college or university.
The physical plant has undergone building and
renovation programs totaling over $60 million
since 1960. During this period every existing
major campus facility has been remodeled or completely reconstructed.
A well-rounded sports program, both intercollegiate and intramural, is sponsored and encouraged by the University. E astern is represented
in intercollegiate competition in baseball, basketball, cross-country, football , golf, rifle, swimming,
tennis and track.
The university is administered by a Board of
Regents, of which Wendell P. Butler, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, is ex-officio chairman.

�GLENN E. PRESNELL
Director of Athletics
Glenn Presnell, former Nebraska All-America
halfback and long-time Eastern football coach,
became Eastern's first full -time athletic director in
November, 1963, when he resigned his grid coaching position to accept his new assignment.
His first year as head coach, 1954, was his best.
His Maroons went undefeated in season play and
lost to Omaha University 7-6 in what is still regarded by many as the greatest Tia ngerine Bowl
game ever played in Orlando, Florida.
Born at Gilead, Nebraska, Presnell was an AllAmerica halfback at Nebraska, and played in the
East-West All-Star Game in San Francisco at the
end of his college career in 1927.
Later, with the Portsmouth Spartans and the
Detroit Lions in the National League, he was an
all-league performer.
Against Green Bay in 19,34, the popular Presnell
kicked a 54-yard field goal, which stood as the
N.F.L. record for 19 years, and is still the second
longest in the League's history. The NFL's 1964
yearbook cited Presnell as one of the key men in
Detroit's 1935, championship.
Presnell began his collegiate coaching career in
1937 as backfield coach at the University of Kan sas. In 1938 he returned to Nebraska as backfield
coach, and in 1942 he was named head coach there.
Nebraska played Stanford in the Rose Bowl in
1941, while he was backfield coach of the Cornhuskers.
In 1943 ,and '44, Presnell coached the backfield
at North Carolina Pre-Flight, while serving as a
naval officer. He returned to Nebraska in 1946,
before coming to Eastern in the fall of 194 7. He
was named head coach in 195-4.
He married the former Lizbeth Gehrling of
Ironton, Ohio, in 1929, and found in her his most
faithful fan and supporter. They have one son,
Danny, who teaches at Madison Central High
School in Richmond. His chief hobby is golf,
and he coaches the Eastern golfers, but he takes
an interest in all sports.

In 1941, foresighted men had visions of an Ohio
Valley Conference.
Sports writers speculated
about the impending division of the Kentucky
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Virtually all
agreed it was just a matter of time until the division took place and a new athletic conference
was formed .
Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and
America was plunged into World War II.
Seven years later, after the hostilities had
ceased, a pre -war dream became a post-war
reality. The "Big Five" of the K. I. A. C. withdrew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.
Making the move were Western Kentucky State
College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray
State College, Morehea d State College and the
University of Louisville. They were joined by
Ev,a nsville College and, shortly thereafter, by Tennessee Tech and Marshall College.
Purpose of the 0 . V. C., as set forth in its con-
Valley
Conference
stitution, is "to regulate, control, and promote all
the recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics
in institutions represented."
Through a gradual process, the Ohio Valley Conference was to become a league of Kentucky and
Tennessee state colleges. Middle Tennessee State
College joined the rolls in 1952, E ast Tennessee
State University in 195-7 and Austin Peay State
College in the spring of 1962. They replaced
Louisville, which became an independent in 1949,
and Marshall and Ev,a nsville, which departed in
1952.
In 1963, the league took another step forward
by appointi ng Arthur L. Gu epe, former football
coach and athletic director at Virginia and Vanderbilt Universities, as the OVC's first full-time
commissioner.
Annually, the OVC presents an a ll-Sports Trophy
for over-all excellence in the entire athletic program. The past three years, Eastern has won the
trophy once and finished second twice.

�ALUMNI COLISEUM - Home Of The Colonels
Years ahead of its time, Alumni Coliseum stands
proudly on a southern slope of the E astern campus.
This massive physical plant, a great triumph in
architectur,a l design and a new concept in combination structures, announces the general theme
of this ra pid-growing institution of higher education.
Since that historic day on June 1, 1961 , when
Dr. Lyndon B. Johnson , Vice President of the
United States, pitched the first spadeful of earth
near the College dairy barn, the world has been
aware -o f the construction of this great building.
Technical aspects of Alumni Coliseum are truly
amazing. The laminated cross -arches of the world's
largest roof of its kind span over 309 feet and
provide for outstanding unobstructed viewing of
a variety of events which will be held in the main
auditorium. A total of 626-,276 board feet of lum ber form the 170 beams and roof decking which
arch gracefully 81 feet above tb.e floor level. The
warmth of southern pine finished in its natural
beauty, provides a perfect atmosphere in this great
arena.
In addition to the main auditorium, the physical
education-athletic plant contains four basketball
g
courts in the auxiliary gymnasium on the east end;
eight classrooms; twenty offices; both indoor and
outdoor swimming pools; shower an d locker
rooms; a projection room, and many other multipurpose facilities.
The main arena seats more than 6,50.0 for basketball games and approximately 8,000 for -o ther
programs. Ultimate seating capacity for basketball will be 10,000, and for other programs, about
12,000. A hydraulic-operated stage is located at
the east end of the arena.
Alumni Coliseum forms the nucleus of a rapidlyevolving, thoughtfully-planned sports center. The
1,300-car oapacity, multi-purpose p aved parking
area in front of the building also serves as a
marching area for the College b and and the
R.O.T.C. unit and as recreation and physical education area.
The compact sports center also includes a new
nine-lane, all-weather rubber-asphalt track, which
encircles a practice football field ; a women's
hockey field; 12 all-weather tennis courts, lighted
for n ight play; ,a nd the "Turkey" Hughes Baseball
Field. Future plans envision a new football stadium in the immediate vicinity of all other athletic
facilities.

�GUY STRONG
Head Coach
Victory, that fickle yardstick that unequivocally
measures the success of a coach, has been a
frequent visitor for Guy Stron g. But an accurate
profile of E astern's basketball coach must go far
b eyo nd the simple statistics that state flatl y: Gu y
Strong is a winner. There's much, m uch more.
Flowing adjectives that paint a colorful picture
over a fact u a l story would be a simple solu tion
but totally ina dequate.
P erh aps a one-word d escription is the best
place to start. Sincerity. If anything, Guy Strong
is sincere. He's a man who believes firmly in his
convictions; a man who asks llQ, per cent and is
willing to give 111 per cent. He once said in
private that he asks only that his player s put as
much into a game as he does. Anyone who h a s
seen Guy S trong in action gets the picture.
He sits on the edge of his chair, shoutin g plays,
twisting a towel, leaping in the air as if h e's helping to rebound a missed shot. He's constantly in
motion.
But his antics are not showmanship. They 're
part of that one-word description. Sincerity.
That's why he's in constant demand at basketball camps and clinics throughout the country.
That's why he speaks at numerous high school
basketball banquets each year.
10
�He has served on the staff at the All-Amerioan
Basketball Clinic with Texas Western's (now
Texas at El Paso) Don H askins and Babe
McCarthy, coach of the New Orleans Buccaneers
in the American Basketball Association.
He has appeared at camps in Cincinnati,
Paducah, Evansville, Somerset, Delta State in
Mississippi, the Kentucky Mountain Basketball
Camp, and ,a t Earlham with Dayton's Don Donoher
in a clinic attended by more than 300' coaches.
Strong also will serve on Jack Kraft's prestigious
basketball camp in Philadelphia in August. Kraft,
coach at Villinova, has enjoyed great success with
his tutoring of high school talent.
Last year, Strong initiated the annual Eastern
Kentucky basketball camp as part of the university's new Summer Sports Camp.
But of perhaps even more importance is Strong's
work in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He
takes great pride in his membership and, along
with his family, attended the FCA's annual conference at Black Mountain, N. C., las t year.
The fact remains, however, that Strong's national prominence stemmed from his statistical
success.
That story began back in 1948. It was then that
Strong, a spindly guard from Irvine High School,
received his initiation into championship basketball. He guided the tiny school to Kentucky's
most coveted prep honor-The Kentucky High
School basketball tournam ent.
From Irvine, Strong went to the University of
K entucky and received another taste of victory
under Coach Adolph Rupp. Strong was a member -o f Rupp's 1951 team that swept to the SEC
title and then captured the coveted NCAA trophy.
He later transferred to Eastern and took a
partial load while working toward an Army Commission. After a stint in the service, he came
back to Eastern, played one more year, and received his B.S. degree in 1955. Eastern won the
OVC his senior year.
Strong compiled a 3.4 st::mding at Eastern and
is a charter member of OAKS, senior men's campus honorary society. He returned to Eastern during summers and received the M.A. in Principal-
ship four years ago.
Following his graduation from E:ctstern. Strong
took over head coaching duties at Richmond's
Madi son High School for one year before going
to Louisville Male.
Hi s best season at Male came in 1961 when the
Bulldogs compiled an 18-3 mark.
Strone: broke into college coaching at Virginia
Tech. He tutored the Tech freshman team to an
11-1 record before being named head coach at
Kentucky Wesleyan College in Owensboro.
In his first year, the Panthers registered a 16-8
record. The following season. Wesleyan slumped
to a 10-12 record. but it merely supplied incentive
for the dedicated young coach.
In 1966, Strong shuffled his young team, came
up with a winning combination, and stepped into
the national spotlight.
The Panthers won 24 of 30 games that season.
And one of those victoriP.;; w as heard throughout
the basketball world. Wesleyan defeated powerful Southern Illinois, 54-51 , to capture the NCAA
college division championship.
Strong calls that victory his greatest moment in
basketball.
The following s ummer, Strong and his squad
were invited bv the State Department to take a
seven-week bas.ketball swing through West Africa.
Stro ng called it "a most rewardin g experience."
He also has been quite a success in other sports.
He has two golf trophies for "Holes-in-One" and
shoots consistantly in the low 80's. In baseball,
he was a pit~her and first baseman.
He once hit .385 while playing at UK and helped
lead the Wildcats to the Eastern Division title in
the SEC •a nd a berth in the NCAA tourney.
Strong played with Irvine in the Bluegrass
league and the (Louisville) Pleasa nt Pats of the
Metropolita n Amateur Baseball Association . The
Pleasant Pats won two Kentucky Amateur Baseball titles behind his pitching.
Strong married his high school sweetheart-the
former Aleen Noland. They have three daughters,
Mina, 14, a cheerleader at Model H.S., Nancy, 4,
and Marla, born just two weeks prior to the current season.
11
�JACK HISSOM
Assistant Basketball Coach
J ack Hissom is ample proof of Guy Strong's
basketball genius.
Strong recruited Hissom last season when h e
assumed the head coaching duties at Eastern . And
the -first task of his new assistant was to develop
a freshman team that incltcded only one player on
full scholarship. Th e fact that Hissom molded
the m into -a n effective unit is a tribute to bo th he
and Strong.
HisBom, a 1958 Eastern graduate, already had
shown his worth as a baske tball coach before
coming to Eastern. He ha s a lifetime coachin g
record of 116 victories and 87 defeats.
H e gained respect on the college level at L ee ·s
Junior College. The Portsmouth, Ohio, native
compiled a 51-41 won-lost record against the best
junior college competition available. Hiss om was
voted the Kentuckiana Junior Coll ege Conference
"Coach of the Year" in 1961 and served on the
United Press In ternational All-Americ-an Board.
His 1962 team played in the 16th Regional Playoffs of the National Junior College Tournament.
Th at year, Hissom's explosive offensive unit averaged 93 .6 poin ts per game, third best among natio n al junior colleges.
Following the 1962 season , h e went to McCreary
Coun ty High School and built one of Kentucky 's
high school powers. H e groomed such collegiate
prospects as Roger Cordell, who later starred on
Strong's small college national ch ampions at Kentucky Wesleyan.
H e guided McCreary County to the Kentucky
High School State Tournament as ch ampio n s of
the Twelfth Region in 1964. In overall prep tournament competition , his teams were 22-8.
Hissom is a former Marine and a veteran of th e
Korean War.
He is married to the former L ai.;ra Ellis, who
was an Eastern cheerleader in her collegiate days.
They have four chil dren, T erry Jill (10), John
Stephen (9) , Jerry Rucker (8) and Jamie Lynn
(1).
12
�Chuck Eckler, Graduate Assistant
Eastern 's graduate assistant coach alrea dy has two years under
his belt as a high school coach. Eckler was in char ge of th e orogram at B erea High School for the past tw o years and left to
pursue a masters d egree. H e played fo ur years of varsity basketball at Will iamstown High School a nd then went to Berea College
w h ere he was a standout for fo ur seasons. Eckler, 24, was graduat ed from Berea in 1966 with majors in Phys ical Education and
Business Administration. H e plans to continue coaching after
receiving the M.A. in June .
Bob Pleva, Student Manager
Coach Guy Strong calls Pleva " anoth er member of the coaching staff." Indeed, the Army ve teran possesses a wealt h of b asketball savvy and is a diligen t stud ent of the game. H e h as ser ved as
head manager for two years. Pleva played four year s of varsity
basketball in high school and t h ree years in th e Army . H e coached
the 7th Army championship t eam which won the Germ an S ports
Conference title in 1964. A seni or , h e plans to coach basketball
aft er grad u ation.

�. - - - - - - - PROSPECT U S - - - - - - -·
A Hint of Optimism
It's downright paradoxical, but last year's losses
are a point of optimism this season.
Confusing?
Not really.
Here's why:
The Colonels suffered eight ;osses in the Ohio
Valley Conference last season. The last five were
by ,a total of 11 points. Granted, "sob" stories have
a way of sounding like those proverbial ill-tasting
grapes. But this is just a simple way of pointing
out the optimism.
There are four starters returning from that
team, which unquestionably, had to be considered
one of those hard-luck types.
Coach Guy Strong probably takes a more realistic viewpoint, striking the losses off as a result of
inexperience.
But the fact remains that the
Colonels did play 11 of their first 16 games in
enemy territory. That's demoralizing, to say the
least.
Eastern managed to win seven of its first nine
games, including such victims as Nationa l Invitational T ournament champion Dayton and M ars hall,
another N IT participant. The high point was an
impressive 99-69 victory over Western . At halftime, the Colonels led 56-19 (honest).
14
Soon, however, fieldhouse ro ofs began to fall
in.
It started at Virginia Tech , then -a t Marshall ,
East Tennessee, St. Francis and Morehead. The
Colonels finally returned to the friend ly confines
of Alumni Coliseum but then came those narrow
losses.
That's a brief re-cap. Missing from last season
is Garfield Smith, the nation's second leading rebounder Iast season with an average of 19.7 grabs
per game . Smith was a second round draft choice
of the NBA champion Boston Ce ltics and a fir st
round draft pick by the ABA's Oakland Oaks and
a September draft choice of Uncle Sam. Garfield
signed with th e Oaks but currently is servin g a
two-year tour of duty with the Army.
Now , what to expect this season. For an inside
look, let's ask t h e man who knows, Coach Gu y
Strong:
Q: Coach , who will be shooting for that , pot
vacate d by Smi t h ?
A: " Carl Greenfie ld, a transfer from South
Carolina State, was a red-shirt last season and
learned a lot scrimmaging against Garfield. C arl
is a big (6 -7, 230 pounds) strong boy who plays
a very intelligent defensive game. He's a good
jumper and his strength comes in handy under
those boards. He's also a consistent scorer. Ches-
�ter Rose is our other center. Chester can score
most any time. He'll have to improve on his defense, however. Boyd Lynch , a forward also can
play the pivot."
Q:
What abotlt the forward situation?
A: "We've got depth. And, of course , Willie
Woods is back for his junior year. Willie is one
of the most complete basketball players I've ever
coached. He's probably one of the shortest forwards in the country ( 6-3) but he can rebound
with anyone. Last season, he averaged 10.4 per
game. He scores well (14.5 ppg) and employs his
quickness to its fullest. And he's a tremendous
defensive player. He ,a lso can go to guard if
needed there. The other forward is a toss-up.
Gary Paul is looking good. He's lost some weight
and it's given him added quickness. Boyd Lynch
and Jerry Godbey also have shown a lot and will
see a lot of action . Ron Young, a transfer, is a
sleeper."
Q:
A Capsule Analysis
And the guards?
A:
"Potentially-and I emphasize that-we
could have one of the finest guard combinations
in the country. A lot will depend on Bobby
Washington and Toke Coleman. They started last
season and gave us 30 points a game in the backcourt. They have all the tools for greatness.
Bobby is ,a great floor leader and comes on strong
when we're in a hot streak. His passes keep the
defense off balance and his shooting has improved
greatly. Toke is a good shot, he climbs the boards
well for a guard and plays strong defense. If they
produce like they're capable of, we'll be a team
to reckon with. We do have a depth problem
there, but Beecher Hale, another transfer, could
come along after adjusting to our style of play
and Woods is capable of moving back there."
Q: In a nutshell, what can we expect?
A: "Well, I know it's there. We had some bad
breaks last season but the experience gained by
our starters was invaluable. Frankly, I'm optimistic. We've got a good starting unit and I think
you can watch for a much-improved defense.
Depth will be a problem but if we stay healthy
our potential is unlimited.

One of the most pleasant surprises in early drill s,
Arnold a pparently has found his home at guard after
bein~ red -shirted l ast season. He was a starting
forward two years ago but failed to develop accordi n '! to p'an s. This year, Strong expects Arnold to see plenty of
acti on. He's bi~ and strong and one of the best defensive players
on the team. Improved outside shooting will make him a natural
at gu ard.

his test weapon is the jump shot. He's not at all shy when it

Toke Coleman
Combines with Washington to provide one of
the finest guard combinations in the South. Coleman
has all it takes to become a great college guard.
His biggest problem as a sophomore was the adjustment to the backcourt. During high school days at Harrison County

�Charles Elza
One of onJy two sopohomores to move up from
the freshman team, Elza showed in early drills he
'.vas ready to play. Hustle is his forte and his workin g attitude moved him into contention as a first-line
subs tit ute. Elza's agg ressiveness, coupled with good quickness,
make him a va luable defensive player. H e must improve his
outside shooting if he is t o be a topflight guard. Drives for t ht
basket well a nd has proven effecti ve on the fast break. G ood p asser.
No Varsity Experience.

Jerry Godbey
Definite contender for starting forward berth.
Godbey, a strong eft-hander, has yet to pay a complete season. As a sophomore. he was scheduled
to be red- shirted. How ever, with nin e games remaining he was moved into competition and immediately took over
as a starting forward, averaging 7 rebounds and 7.5 rebo unds per
game . In p re- season drills last year, Godbey was injured one week
before the Colonels opened. Slowed by the injury, he never quite
regained the poise he showed as a sophomore. Godbey is an excel lent defensive player and goes to the defensive boards well. Has
good speed.

Carl Greenfield
Much of the Colonel's success will rest on Greenfield's broad shoulders. H e replaces Garfield Smith
at the pivot and must take charge under the boards.
Strong says he will. Greenfield is a smart defensive
player and rebounds with authority. He has a good jump sho t
and adequate hook and has made the adjustment to major college
l:;asketball with little problem. An All-State end in football, he
suffered a knee injury during drills last season. He appears to
have r ecovered from surgery during the summer. A good competitor, Greenfield has strong hands and is a dangerous passer from
the high post.
Transfer from South Carolina State College.

�Beecher Hale
Hale averaged 34 points a game last season at
Prestonsburg Community College. He is an excellen t jump shooter a nd possesses good basketball
savvy. He is exp ected to help erase the depth problem at guard. Should see plenty of action after adjusting to
Strong's brand of b ask etball. Not as quick as starting guards but
overcomes this with deceptive moves and ability to shoot from
lon g range. A real scrapper.
Transfer from Prestonsburg Community College.
42
Boyd Lynch
Lynch, w ho saw only limited ac tion in high
school, start ed his first game ever last season against
Dayton. Responded with 28 points as the Colonels
upset the Flyers. An excellent outside sh ot, Lynch
has sh own remarkable improvement since b eing red-shirted two
yea r s ago. Averaged 8 points and 5.4 rebounds as a part- time
st arter last season. Willin g worker but must be more aggressive
under the boards. Has good speed and h andles ball well. Bl ocked
numerous shots last season. One of fi ve forwards shooting for a
starting berth.

giving him added quickness. Very aggressive . Im proved .a ttitude h as b een one of high points in early practice ses sions. Good competitor who hits both boards well. Paul has a
good jump shot and has improved his passing considerably. K n own
as " Cool George" by teammates b ecause of his poise under fire.
Won two games by hitting two free t h rows in the final seconds of
play. His improvement this season h a s provided the balanced
attack Strong was looking for.

Av eraged 12.8 points a nd 10.1 r ebounds as a freshman but defen sive weakness kept him out of lineup
as a sophomore . Switched from forward back to more familiar
pivot, spot, he should be a good backup man to Greenfield if he
can improve defensively. Appear s to have whipped weight problem. Rose was an All-State performer at Hazar d High School an d
scored 31 po ints in a quarter -final game in t h e state tournament
as a senior.

which show ed up only in the sc ore box. Con sistency is his format.

�Willie ·woods
Woods may well be the most underrated player
in the OVC. Although small for a college forward ,
he still managed to average 10.8 rebounds per game
as a sophomore, 7th best in the conferenec. H e averaged 14.5 points a game, which was 10th in the league and was
second in fiel d goal p ercentage, hitting 50.9 per cent of his sh ots.
And to top that off, he's a tremendous defensive player. That's w h y
he's called a com plete bask etball player by his coach. And that's
also why he w ill be u sed at guard if n ecessary. The most consist en t
player on the squ a d , Woods is one of those "unnoticed" players
until the statistics are released .

excellent jumper, he has impresse d the coachin g staff
with his aggressiveness an d desire. Needs only to
learn the offen ses and d efenses to b e a contender fer ,a startin g
j ob at forw ard. H as nice tou ch on medium-range jump shot and

Played in t he sh a dow of Bobby Washington in high school but
developed well in junior college.
Transfer from Northeast (Okla.) Junior College.

Gary Holbrook
Holbro ok is a fierce competitor who does a good
j ob und er both boards. He's a good jumper a nd
very agile w h en going for position on a rebo und. A
so und d efen sive player, he also is effe ctive in pulling
of a d efensive rebound and starts the fast break. An adequate
shooter from medium range with good moves under the basket.
Strong h ands are an asset he takes full advantage of. His aggressiveness p ays off when pitted again st a t aller opponent. Still needs
polish , ho wever, a nd will see only limited duty.

�BOBBY
WASHINGTON
All Americans are hard to come by.
Ask any coach . The requirements are
explicit. Today's All American must
possess equal finesse a t both ends of
the floor . He must mesh his natural
talents with a burning desire to compete. He must be better than anyone
else on the floor in virtually every
phase of the game.
Bobby Washington is a 6-foot guard
gifted with a beyy of natural talents.
His basketball savvy-at both ends of
t he floor- is unmatched.
On offense, h e can destroy a zone
with his deadly one-hander. He guarantees two points any time he's the hub
on a fast-break attack. He drives with
authority,
employing
a
deceptive
change-of-pace for an easy layup or
whipping the ball to an open man
while the defense stands flat-footed.
He's 7th in career scoring at Eastern
with a full season yet to play.
On defense, he'll come up with three
and four steals a game.
During his varsity career, he has
a ccounted for an average of 42 points
a game 08 scoring a nd 14 passing) .
He was OVC Sophomore of the Year
in 1967 and All Conference twice. He
is the team leader ( elected captain as
a junior ,a nd senior) who picks the
team up when it's down and keeps
it up in tight situations.
He's awesome in a fascinating sort
of way. Well worth watching.

An account of the resource
The Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) Photograph Collection consists of photographs and negatives of students, faculty, and events at EKU. Subjects range from individual faculty headshots and classroom pictures to commencement and candid everyday student life photos. Organizational pictures, shots of campus in general, athletics and other official photos taken from the university photographer are also included. Many of these images were taken for publication in marketing materials or for use in the school newspaper, yearbook and alumni magazines. The collection also includes snapshots taken by employees attending events.
The collection may be used for all types of research, keeping in mind that individuals are often unidentified, so search broadly. All images available have been described here, but not all are scanned.

�The
Ohio
Valley
Conference
In 1941, foresighted men had visions of an Ohio
Valley Conference. Sports writers speculated
about the impending division of the Kentucky
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Virtually all
a greed it w,a s just a matter of time until the division took place .aind a n ew auMetiJc ccmfre r ence
w as formed.
Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and
America wa,s plunged i,n11Jo Wro dd War II.
Seven years ~ater, ,after the hos,tlilri.ties had
ceased, a pr,e -war dream became a post-war
r eality. The "Big Five" of the K. I. A. C. withd rew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.
Making the move wer•e Western Kentucky State
College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray
State College, Morehead State College and the
University of Louisville. They were joined by
Ev,a nsville College and, shortly thereafter, by
T ennessee T•e ch and Marshall College.
Purpose of the 0. V. C., as set forth in its con-
stitution, is "to regu1ate, control, and promot,e all
the recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics
in institutions r,epresented."
Through a gradual prncess, the Ohio Valley
Conference was to become a league of Kentucky
and Tenness ee s t at.e colleg;e. Mtiddl1e Te111,nessee
State College joined the rolls in 1952, East Tennessee State University in 1957 and Austin Peay
State College in the spring of 1962. They replaced
Louisville, which became 1an independent in 1949,
and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in
1952.
In 1963, the league took another step forward
by appointing Arthur L. Guepe, former football
coach and athletic director at Virginia and Vanderbilt Universities, as the OVC's first full-time
commissioner.
Annually, the OVC presents an all-Sports
Trophy for over-all excellence in the entire ath1eUc program. Eastern has won the trophy once
and fin:ished second twice in the last fi01Ur yeaTS.

�ALUMNI COLISEUM - Home Of The Colonels
Alumni Coliseum stands proUJdly on a sourtlhem
slope of the Eastern campus, forming the nucleus
of a rapidly evolving, thoughtfully planned sports
center. The hub is a 1,300-car, multi-purpose
parking area in front of the coliseum.
The coliseum is ,a massive physical plant, a great
triumph in arch~tectural design and a new concept
in combination structures. In addition to the main
auditorium, the physical education-athletic plant
contains four basketball courts in an auxilirtary
gymnasium on the east end; eight classrooms;
twenty offices; both indoor ,a nd outdoor swimming
pools, shower and locker rooms ; a projection
room, and many other multi- purpose facilities.
The main arena seats more than 7,500 for basketball games and approximat1ely 8,0,00 :£or other
programs. Ultimate seating capacity for b 2sketball will be 10,000 and for other programs, about
12,000. A hydraulic-operated stage is locate d at
the east end of the arena.
The parking area ,a lso serves as a marching
1
8
field for the univerS'ity's band, 1:!he Macr-chiing Maroons, and the R.O.T.C. unit, as well as a recreation and physical education area.
The compact sports center also includes a new
nine-line all-weather grasstex track; a women's
hockey field; 12 all- weather tennis courts, lighted
for night play; the Turkey Hughes Baseball Field;
two fully equipped football practice fields, and
Eastern's new, 20,0,00-sea!t stadium, a1s,o designed
for combination academic athletic accommodations. Ground for Alumni Coliseum was broken
June 1, 1961, by then Vice President Lyndon B.
Johnson. Technical a spects of the coliseum include a laminated cross-arched roof- the world's
largest of its kind-spanning 309 feet and providing an unobstruct ed view of t'he variety of e\nenrt:s
which are held in the main auditorium. A total
of 626,276 board feet of lumber form the 170
beams and roof, which arches gracefully 81 feet
above the floor level, is southern pine finished in
its n :i.tural beauty.

�GUY STRONG
Head Coach
It can b e said, without fear of contradiction,
that Guy Strong is a winner. Ninety-nine times
in six years, as a ma,t ter of fact. The~·e are other
matters of fact, too. But more on that later. What
must be explored first is the how and why of
Guy Strong's success.
The best place to start is an E ast ern bask etball
practice. The true impact can only be felt by
watchi ng St ren g in action. H is assista nt coaches
will confide that h e has uncanny savvy. He's able
to watch a scrimmage, splice it into five separate
units, -a nd a nalyze all five in a single play. There's
just no room for error in a Guy Strong practice.
If it exists, h e spots it and erases it.
Then there's the game itself. A ge ntleman's
gentleman off the floor, at tipoff h e b ecomes a
fiery competitor completely enveloped by his own
will to win. But t his leads to still another side
of t he Guy Strong story.
It tells of a man with lofty goals; a man who
refuses to settle for second best. H e is impatient,
but realistic enough to know that his target oan
come only through bacrd work a nd dedication. This
philosophy, if it can be called tbat, has been slow
in catching on. But it began to find expression
in the latter stages of his second season at his
alm a mater.
The Colonels won n ine of their last 13 starts in
1969 ,and by season's end was on a par with any
team in the league. Wi th four double- figure starters r,e turning from t hat team, Gu y Strong's goal
moves closer to reality.
~or these reasons, it's cli!fficuilit tJo be assooi:aitJed
with Guy Stron g without a feeling of optimism.
Some other matters of fact include his selection
to coach the Kentucky team in the annual Ken10
�tuck y-Indiana Collegiate All-Sta r series last year.
Strong's team won both games.
In six seasons, he has coached five players who
went into professional basketball. They werie:
Sam Smith, Kentucky Col1onels; Danas Thornton,
Miami Florid,~ans; George Tins 1ley, W1aslhington;
Garfield Smi<t'h , Waslhingto1n , and Bobby W•a shington , Kentucky Colonels.
One of Strong's gveatest sources of pride is his
wor k with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
He anually takes hiis family -to bh e FCA's
conference at Black Mountain, North Carolina,
and he was one of the founders of an FCA Huddle
Grou p on the Eastern campus.
H is sincerity and his knowledge of basketball
are two of the reasons he's in constant demand at
cam ps and clinics throughout the country. A
raconteur of note, he speaks ,a t numerous high
sch ool basketball banquets each y,ear.
H e has served on the staff at the All-American
Basketball Clinic with Texas Western's (now
Tex as at El Paso) Don Haskins and Babe McCar thy, coach of the New Orleans Buccaneers in
the American Basketball Association.
He has appeared at camps in Cincinnati, Paducah , Evansville, Somerset, D elta State in Mississippi, the Kentucky Mountain Basketball Camp,
an d at Earlham with Dayton's Don Donoher in a
clinic attended by more than 300 coaches .
Strong also served on Jack Kraft's prestigious
b asketball camp in Philadelphia in August.
Last year, Strong initiated the annual Eastern
K en tucky basketball camp as part of the university's new Summer Sports Camp.
The fact remains, however, that Strong's nat ional prominence stemmed from his statistical
success. It goes back to Guy Strong, the winner.
That story b egan back in 1948. It was then that
S trong, a spindly guard from Irvine High School,
r eceived his initiation into championship b asketb all. He guided the tiny school to Kentucky's
most coveted prep honor-The Kentucky High
School basketball tournament.
From Irvine, Strong went to the University of
Kentucky and received another taste of victory
under Coach Adolph Rupp. Strong was a member
of Rupp's 1951 team that swept to the SEC title
and then captured the coveted NCAA trophy.
He later transferred to Eastern and took a partial load while working toward an Army Commission. After a stint in the service, he came back
to Eastern, played one more y,e ar, and received
his B.S. degree in 1955. Eastern won the OVC his
s,e nior year.
Strong compiled a 3.4 standing at Eastern and
is a charter member of OAKS, senior men's campus honorary society. He r,e turned to Eastern
during summers and received the M.A. in Principalship four years ago.
Following his grnduation from Eastern, Strong
took over head coaching duties at Richmond's
Madison High School for one year before going
to Louisville M ale.
Strong brok,e into college coaching at Virginia
Tech. He tutored the Tech freshman team to an
11-1 record before being named h ead coach at
K entucky Wesleyan College in Owensboro.
In 1966, Strong shuffled his young team, came
up with a winning combination, and stepped into
the national spotlight.
The Panthers won 24 of 30 games that season.
And one of those victories was heard throughout
the basketball world. Wesleyan d efeated powerful
Southern Illinois, 54-51, to c,a ptm,e the NCAA
college division championship.
Strong calls that victory his greatest moment
in basketball.
Strong married his high school sweetheartthe form er Aleen Noland. They have three daughters, Mina Lindon, 16, a cheerleader at Model
H .S., Nancy Jane, 6, and Marla, born just two
weeks prior to the 1968-69 season.
�JACK HISSOM
Assistant Basketball Coach
Versatility is the best gauge for measuring the
effectiveness of Jack Hissom. In his two years at
Eastern, he has worn the many hats demanded
of an assistant col1ege basketball coach. He has
been freshmen coach, recruiter, and scout. And
in each endeavor, Jack Hissom h as been a success.
H~ssom, Strong's immediatie choice as his assistant, lays the foundation for Eastern's future
success. His first year as fre shman coach was one
of the most demanding of his career. He had only
one scholarship player, but molded an effective
unit against top competition. Last season, with a
small, quick, high-scoring outfit, he won 12 and
lost six. The team averaged better than 90 points
a game.
Hissom gained respect on the college level at
Lee's Junior College. His 1960 team finished
fourth in the national junior co11ege regional tour-
12
nament. And in 1961, he was voted Coach of the
Year in the Kent uckiam,a Junior CoUege Cornerence. H is 1962 club also appeared in the nat~onal
tournc,ment, averaging 93.6 p0,int,s per game during the season, third besit among jurnior colleges
in the country.
He also enjoyed a highly successful stint as
baseball coach at Lees. In 1960, his team finished
second in the national junior college regional at
Iowa Falls, Iowa. He lost to only one junior
college team the entire season.
In addition, Hissom served on the United Press
International All-Amerioan Boar d .
Following the 1962 season, Hissom went to
McCreary County High School and built one of
Kentucky's high school powers . He guided McCreary County to the Kentucky High School State
Tournament as champions of the Twelfth Region
in 1964. In overall prep tournament competition,
his teams were 22-8, including five championships
and six runners up.
An excellent indication of Hissom's ,a bility is the
fact that 21 of his former players are now in the
coaching profession, two on the college level.
A former Marine staff sergeant, Hissom is a
veteran of the Korean War and traveled extensively during his tour of duty.
He is married to the former Laura Ellis, who
was an Eastern cheerleader in her collegiate d ays.
They have four children, Terry Jill (12), John
Stephen (11), Jerry Rucker (10), and Jammie
Lynn (3).
�TOMMY HARPER
Assistant Basketball Coach
Guy Strong didn't have to look too far in his
search for a new assistant coach this season. His
top choice was just 15 miles away.
In t h ree years as a varsity coach at Clark
County High School, Tommy Harper had gained
statewide respect of his coaching ability and success.
Actually , success has been with Harper since his
high sch ool playing days at Clark County. Playing under Letcher Norton, Harper was a firstteam All-State se1'ection and still rianks as the
school's all-time leading scorer.
Harper , 27, played four years under Coach
Adolph Rupp at the University of Kentucky. He
then served two seasons as an assistant high
school coach in Indiana.
In 1966, Harper returned to his alma m ater and
enjoyed immediate success.
H is teams won the Mid-State Conference championship all thre e years, went to the 10th Region
finals each year, and made two trips to the State
High School Tournament, advancing to the quarterfinals in 1968 ,a nd 1969.
H ar per was Coach of the Year in the rugged
Mid- State Conference twice. In 196.9, he received
the high est honor in Kentucky high school coaching w h en ··he was named Kentucky Coach of the
Year in a statewide poll of coaches by The Lex-
ington Herald-Leader. He was runner-up to Central's Robert Graves in The Courier-Journal poll.
His three-year record at Clark County was
75-19. His composite record on all levels is 171-32.
Harper coached three All-State players and five
of his former students are cunently on full bask etball scholarships.
In signing Harper, Strong said he possessed
"one of the finest basketball minds anywhere.
He will be a tremendous asset to our program.
Young men of Tom's ability are hard to find.
We're very fortunate to have him join u s."
Harper is married to the former Bobbie Ann
Strong of Williamsburg. They have two children,
Kim ( 4) ,a nd Kandi (2) .
�PROSPECTUS
HIGHER HOPES
It is, by no stretch of the imagination, a time
for optimism at Eastern Kentucky University.
It's a nice feeling, too. For the first time in four
years, the starting lineup has a veteran flavor .
Assets include good team quickness, excellent
offensive potention, and a well disciplined de:£ense. And, for the first time in ... well . . . in a
long time, there is depth. Guy Strong will b e able
to turn to his bench for help. For that matter,
he can oall on several different starting lineups
to meet his n eeds.
The progress of Strong's building program is
evident. He inherited a 5-18 team, won 10 of 24
his first year and last season went 13-9.
There are four double-figure scorers returning
from last year. Leading the way will be Willie
Woods, Mr. Consistency, who averaged 16.2 points
and 10.3 rebounds last year. And he's only 6- foot3. Then there's Toke Coleman, 6-4 ½ guard w h o
improved a great deal after midseason. He fin ished with a 13.9 scoring average. Coleman, a
fantastic (pardon that word) leaper, has been
called upon to jump center on occasion. And
Boyd Lynch also is back. L ynch, 6-9, came to
Eastern without a schola rship after w atching high
14
school basketball from the bench. He averaged
11.5 points per game, including a 33-point p rformance in the season finale , which accents his
vast improvement. The other starter is Carl
Greenfield, deceptively quick and obviously
strong at 6-6 and 235 pounds . He a~eirag,ed 10.4
points and 11.8 r ebounds as a sophomore.
That leaves one vacant spot, and a big one at
th at . Last yea r it belonged to Bobby Washirngitio n,
a three- time All-Ohio Valley Conference guard
and an hon o·rable m ention All-American as ,a senior. H e was drafted by the Kentucky Colonels
and was the only rookie to make the 12-man
squad.
The search for a replacement helps em phasize
a pleasant problem called depth. At least three
players-all sophomores-will see considerable
a ction at that guard slot. They are George Bryant, an ambidextrous type who averaged 24.5
points per game ( 19th among freshmen scorers
in the nation), and a pair of 6- 3 scramblers, Billy
Bur ton and Char lie Brunker. Aliso, senior defensive specialist Clint Arnold is back.
F or a closer look, let's talk with th e man who
knows, Coach Guy Strong:
�Q: Offensively, how will we compar,e with last
season?
A: "We will definitely miss Bobby (Washingt on). He made our offense click last year. My
main concern this season is coming up with a real
fl oor lea der; someone who can take charge when
t he going gets tough and ,a lso carry the moment um w h en we have a team on the ropes. We must
have that leadership. Experi,e nce, better team
speed and those sophomores will help, of course.
We should be effective with the fast break and
our outside shooting, the best since I've been here,
will discourage zone defenses against us."
Q: W hat about on defense?
A: "The experience and team speed should help
th ere, too. We can count on a good, aggressive
defense for more extended periods of time. The
fu ll court press-both zone and man-for-manw ill be a trademark of the Colonels. We also will
employ a hustling, hard--nosed half-court pressure
m an-for-man defense. Experience is necessary if
our t y pe of defense is to click, especially in a
league as strong as the OVC."
Q: How about an overall picture of the Colonels' prospects?
A: "There are several things to consider when
evaluating our chances. First of all, Murray and
Wester n both finished ahead of us last year and
they r eturn most everyone, too. We're shooting
for t he championship, and I think we can do it if
we h old our heads up and get the leadership we
need. Also, there's that non-conference schedule.
It could be the most demanding schedule in the
school's history. We open at Michigan State, then
play Western Carolina before traveling to Philadelph ia to take on LaSalle. After that, it's Dayt on. So our work is cut out for us. E.arly success
can m ean national exposure. Right now, I can
prom ise a good team, a really exciting team, and
a very interesting season.

The Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) Photograph Collection consists of photographs and negatives of students, faculty, and events at EKU. Subjects range from individual faculty headshots and classroom pictures to commencement and candid everyday student life photos. Organizational pictures, shots of campus in general, athletics and other official photos taken from the university photographer are also included. Many of these images were taken for publication in marketing materials or for use in the school newspaper, yearbook and alumni magazines. The collection also includes snapshots taken by employees attending events.
The collection may be used for all types of research, keeping in mind that individuals are often unidentified, so search broadly. All images available have been described here, but not all are scanned. Photographs with only a description can be requested by filling out a duplication request (see the link in the menu at the top of the page).

�EASTERN I(ENTUCI(Y UNIVERSITY
Growth-in quantity and quality-has been the
theme at Eastern Kentucky University. The quantity speaks for itself. With an enrollment of
nearly 10,000 students, the university's student
body has more than tripled since 1960. As a
result, new dormitories and large, well-equipped
academic structures are being built.
But the quality of Eastern can be measured
only by its graduates. Today, the Eastern student
is provided with a firm academic background.
More research facilities are available. The quality of its faculty continues to grow.
The total growth began in 1960 when Dr. Robert
R. Martin assumed the presidency of Eastern,
becoming its sixth chief executive.
With university status effective July 1, 1966,
Eastern was reorganized into five colleges and
a graduate school. Curricula in the Colleges of
Applied Arts and Technology, Arts and Sciences,
Business and Education lead to the Bachelor of
Science, Bachelor of Arts or Associate of Arts
degree. Central University College offers preparatory curricula for the first two years of the
student's college career, providing a liberal base
f or a major in one of the advanced colleges. The
master's degree is offered in education, English,
history, guidance and counseling for non-school
personnel, business administration, music education and biology. Specialist's degrees are now
offered in technology, physical education, and
education. A Joint Doctoral Program in Education, sponsored in cooperation with the University
of Kentucky, permits students to continue in
residence at Eastern for one academic year bey ond the master's degree.
Founded in 1906 as Eastern State Normal School,
Eastern was envisioned as a teacher preparation
institution. In 1922, Eastern became a four-year
college known as the Eastern Kentucky State
Normal School and Teachers College. The progression continued in 1930, when "Normal School"
was dropped from the na1ne, and in 1935 when
the first graduate degrees were offered.
The physical plant has undergone building and
r enovation programs totaling over $75 million
since 1960. During this period every existing
major campus facility has been remodeled or
completely reconstructed.
A well-rounded sports program, both intercollegiate and intramural, is sponsored and encouraged by the University. Eastern is represented
in intercollegiate competition in baseball, basketball, cross-country, football , golf, rifle, swimming,
t ennis and track.

�GLENN E. PRESNELL
Director of Athletics
Glenn Presnell has been associated with Eastern
athletics for 23 years, serving the past seven as the
university's first full-time athletic director.
In ten years as Eastern's football coach, he
guided his teams to 42 victories, 49 losses and
three ties. During that time, the Maroons won one
OVC title outright and gained a four-way share
of the crown in 1962. Until one of his students,
Roy Kidd, won the 1967 and 1968 championships,
Presnell was the only Kentucky coach who could
claim more than one OVC halo.
His first year as head coach, 1954, was his best.
His Maroons went undefeated in season play and
lost to Omaha University 7-6 in what is still regarded as the greatest Tangerine Bowl game ever
played in Orlando, Florida.
Born at Gilead, Nebraska, Presnell was an AllAmerican halfback at Nebraska, and played in the
East-West All-Star Game in San Francisco at the
end of his college career in 1927.
Later, with the Portsmouth Spartans and the
Detroit Lions in the National League, he was an
all-league performer.
Against Green Bay in 1934, the popular Presnell
kicked a 54-yard field goal, which stood as the
N.F.L. record for 19 years, and is still the third
longest in the League's history. The NFL's 1964
yearbook cited Presnell as one of the key men in
Detroit's 1935 championship.
Presnell began his collegiate coaching career in
1937 as backfield coach at the University of Kansas. In 1938 he returned to Nebraska as backfield
coach, and in 1942 he was named head coach there.
Nebraska played Stanford in the Rose Bowl in
1941, while he was backfield coach of the Cornhuskers.

�ALUMNI COLISEUM - Home 0£ The Colonels
Alumni Coliseum stands proudly on a southern
slope of the Eastern campus, forming the nucleus
of a r apidly evolving, thoughtfully planned sports
center. The hub is a 1,300-car, multi-purpose
parking area in front of the coliseum.
The coliseum is a massive physical plant, a great
triumph in architectural design and a new concept
in combination structures. In addition to the main
auditorium, the physical education-athletic plant
contains four basketball courts in an auxiliary
gymnasium on the east end ; eight classrooms;
twenty offices ; both indoor and outdoor swimming
pools, shower and locker rooms; a projection
room , and many other multi-purpose facilities.
The main arena seats more than 7,500 for basketball games and approximately 8,000 for other
programs. Ultimate seating capacity for basketball will be 10,000 and for other programs, about
12,000. A hydraulic-operated stage is located at
the east end of the arena.
The parking area also serves as a marching
field for the university's band, the Marching ~v'Iaroons, and the R.O.T.C. unit, as well as a r ecreation and physical education area.
The compact sports center also includes a new
nine-line all-weather grasstex track ; a women's
hockey field; 12 all-weather tennis courts, lighted
for night play; the Turkey Hughes Baseball Field;
two fully equipped football practice fields, and
Eastern's new, 24,000-seat stadium, also designed
for combination academic athletic accomn10dations. Ground for Alumni Coliseum was broken
June 1, 1961, by then Vice President L yndon B.
Johnson. Technical aspects of the coliseum include a laminated cross-arched roof-the world's
largest of its kind-spanning 309 feet and providing an unobstructed view of the variety of events
which are held in the main auditorium. A total
of 626,276 board feet of lumber form t h e 170
beams, and the roof, which arches gracefully 81
feet above the floor level, is southern pine
finished in its natural beauty.

��ATHLETICS AT EASTERN
The School of Health, Physical Education,
Recreation, and Athletics, under the College of
Education, sponsors twelve intercollegiate sports
f or men and a variety of intercollegiate sports for
w omen. Extensive intramural programs are sponsored providing varied participation opportunities
f or all men and women students, and faculty.
These programs are an integral part of the
t otal program and development of Eastern students. They offer experiences which contribute
immeasurably to the preparation of young people
as citizens and for their leadership contributions
t o the youth in our nation's schools and elsewhere.
The intercollegiate programs are designed and
conducted in such a manner as to provide experi ences of value to the participants in both vocat ional and recreational pursuits.
The School of Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Athletics offers a variety of degree
programs at the undergraduate and graduate
levels. The coaches of athletics are among the
more than forty full-time faculty members, representing more than a score of the finest colleges
and universities in the nation, required to produce
the academic, intramural and varsity athletic programs.
The extensive indoor and outdoor facilities are
used interchangeably for instruction and athletics
as is the faculty. The School which is organized
under a single administrativ e unit, includes four
academic departments under which there are
twelve undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Such organization contributes significantly
to successful coordination of program, faculty,

�GUY STRONG
Head Coach
Guy Strong has a tradition of winning. In
seven years of collegiate coaching, he has won
one hundred and eleven times. That averages out
to an average of 16 victories a year. Not a bad
average. Let's explore the how and why such
an average has been built.
The best place to start is an Eastern basketball
practice. The true impact can only be felt by
watching Strong in action. His assistant coaches
will confide that he has uncanny savvy. He's able
to watch a scrimmage, splice it into five separate
units, and analyze all five in a single play. There's
just no room for error in a Guy Strong practice.
If it exists, he spots it and erases it.
Then there's the game itself. A gentleman's
gentleman off the floor, at tipoff he becomes a
fiery competitor completely enveloped by his own
will to win. But this leads to still another side
of the Guy Strong story.
It tells of a man with lofty goals; a man who
refuses to settle for second best. He is impatient,
but realistic enough to know that his target can
come only through hard work and dedication. This
philosophy, if it can be called that, has been slow
in catching on. But it began to find expression
in the latter stages of his second season at his
alma mater.
The Colonels won nine of their last 13 starts in
1969 and by season's end was on a par with any
team in the league. Eastern also finished strong in
the latter part of the 1969-70 season by winning
seven of its last nine.
For these reasons, it's difficult to be associated
with Guy Strong without a feeling of optimism.
Some other matters of fact include his selection
to coach the Kentucky team in the annual Ken12
�tucky -Indiana Collegiate All-Star series 1n 1969.
Strong's team won both games. He has also
coached the Kentucky team in the KentuckyIndiana High School All-Star series three years.
In seven seasons, he has coached six players
who went into professional basketball. They were:
Sam Smith, Kentucky Colonels; D allas Thornton,
Miami Floridians; George Tinsley, Kentucky;
Garfield Smith, Boston Celtics; Bobby Washington, Milwaukee Bucks; and Boyd Lynch, Seattle
Supersonics.
One of Strong's greatest sources of pride is his
work with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
He anually takes his family to the FCA's
conference at Black Mountain, North Carolina,
and he was one of the founders of an FCA Huddle
Group on the Eastern campus.
His sincerity and his knowledge of basketball
are two of the reasons he's in constant demand at
camps and clinics throughout the country. A
raconteur of note, he speaks at numerous high
school basketball banquets each year.
He has appeared at camps in Cincinnati, Paducah, Evansville, Somerset, Delta State in Mississippi, the Kentucky Mountain Basketball Camp,
and at Earlham with Dayton's Don Donaher in a
clinic attended by more than 300 coaches.
Strong also served on Jack Kraft's prestigious
basketball camp in Philadelphia in August of 1969.
Last year, Strong initiated the annual Eastern
Kentucky basketball camp as part of the university's new Summer Sports Camp.
The fact remains, however, that Strong's national prominence stemmed from his statistical
success. It goes back to Guy Strong, the winner.
That story began back in 1948. It was then that
Strong, a spindly guard from Irvine High School,
received his initiation into championship basketball. He guided the tiny school to Kentucky's
most coveted prep honor - The Kentucky High
School basketball tournament.
From Irvine, Strong went to the University of
Kentucky and received another taste of victory
under Coach Adolph Rupp. Strong was a member
of Rupp's 1951 team that swept to the SEC title
and then captured the coveted NCAA trophy.
He later transferred to Eastern and took a partial load while working toward an Army Commission. After a stint in the service, he came back
to Eastern, played one more year, and received
his B.S. degree in 1955. Eastern won the OVC his
sen10r year.
Strong compiled a 3.4 standing at Eastern and
is a charter member of OAKS, senior men's campus honorary society. He returned to Eastern
during summers and received his M.A.
Following his graduation from Eastern, Strong
took over head coaching duties at Richmond's
Madison High School for one year before going
to Louisville Male.
Strong broke into collegiate coaching at Virginia
Tech. He tutored the Tech freshman team to an
11-1 record before being named head coach at
Kentucky Wesleyan College in Owensboro.
In four years at Kentucky Wesleyan, Strong
guided his team to the NCAA twice.
In 1966, Strong shuffled his young team, came
up with a winning combination, and stepped into
the national spotlight.
The Panthers won 24 of 30 games that season.
And one of those victories was heard throughout
the basketball world. Wesleyan defeated powerful
Southern Illinois, 54-51, to capture the NCAA
college division championship.
Strong calls that victory his greatest moment
in basketball.
Strong married his high school sweetheartthe former Aleen Noland. They have three daughters, Mina Lindon, 17, a cheerleader at Model,
Nancy Jane, 7, and Marla, 2.
Strong's hobbies include golf, handball, and
bridge.

�JACK HISSOM
Assistant Basketball Coach
Versatility is the best gauge for measuring the
effectiveness of Jack Hissom. In his three years at
Eastern, he has worn the many hats demanded
of an assistant college basketball coach. He has
been freshmen coach, recruiter, and scout. And
in each endeavor, Jack Hissom has been a success.
Hissom, Strong's immediate choice as his assistant, lays the foundation for Eastern's future
success. His first year as a freshman coach was
one of the most demanding of his career. He had
only one scholarship player, but molded an effective unit against top competition. In 1968-69,
with a small, quick, high-scoring outfit, he won
12 and lost six. Last season, led by Eastern's alltime leading freshman scorer, Charlie Mitchell, the
frosh posted an 11-7 record.
Hissom gained respect on the college level at
Lee's Junior College. His 1960 team finished
14
fourth in the national junior college regional tournament. And in 1961, he was voted Coach of the
Year in the Kentuckiana Junior College Conference. His 1962 club also appeared in the national
tounrament, averaging 93.6 points per game during the season, third best among junior colleges
in the country.
He also enjoyed a highly successful stint as
baseball coach at Lees. In 1960, his team finished
second in the national junior college regional at
Iowa Falls, Iowa. He lost to only one junior
college team the entire season.
In addition, Hissom served on the United Press
International All-American Board.
Following the 1962 season, Hissom went to
McCreary County High School and built one of
Kentucky's high school powers. He guided McCreary County to the Kentucky High School State
Tournament as champions of : the Twelfth Region
in 1964. In overall prep tournament competition,
his teams were 22-8, including five championships
and six runners up.
An excellent indication of Hissom's ability is the
fact that 21 of his former players are now in the
coaching profession, two on the college level.
A former Marine staff sergeant, Hissom is a
veteran of the Korean War and traveled extensively during his tour of duty.
He is married to the former Laura Ellis, who
was an Eastern cheerleader in her collegiate days.
They have four children, Terry Jill (13), John
Stephen (12), Jerry Rucker (11), and Jammie
Lynn (4).
�TOMMY HARPER
Assistant Basketball Coach
Guy Strong didn't have to look too far in his
search for a new assistant coach last season. His
t op choice was just 20 miles away.
In three years as a varsity coach at Clark
County High School, Tommy Harper had gained
statewide respect of his coaching ability and success.
Actually, success has been with Harper since his
high school playing days at Clark County. Playing under Letcher Norton, Harper was a firstt eam All-State selection and still ranks as the
school's all-time leading scorer.
Harper, 27, played four years under Coach
Adolph Rupp at the University of Kentucky. He
t hen served two seasons as an assistant high
s chool coach in Indiana.
In 1966, Harper returned to his alma mater and
enjoyed immediate success.
His teams won the Mid-State Conference champ ionship all three years, went to the 10th Region
fi nals each year, and made two trips to the State
High School Tournament, advancing to the quart erfinals in 1968 and 1969.
Harper was Coach of the Year in the rugged
Mid-State Conference twice. In 1969, he received
t he highest honor in Kentucky high school coachi ng when he was named Kentucky Coach of the
Year in a statewide poll of coaches by the Lexington Herald-Leader. He was runner-up to Central's Robert Graves in The Courier-Journal poll.
His three-year record at Clark County was
75-19. His composite record on all levels is 171-32.
Harper coached three All-State players and five
of his former students are currently on full basketball scholarships.
In signing Harper, Strong said he possessed
"one of the finest basketball minds anywhere."
Harper's main duties for Eastern consist of
scouting and recruiting.
Harper is married to the former Bobbie Ann
Strong of Williamsburg. They have two children,
Kim (5) and Kandi (3).

�PROSPECTUS
BRIGHT FUTURE
If y ou were a college basket ball coach and t h r ee
of your starters were drafted by the pros, wouJ.d
y ou 'throw in the towel' and forget about having
a winning season?
Certainly most coaches w ould concede a y ea r
to rebuilding, but not Eastern h ead coach Guy
Strong.
Strong, beginning his fourth year at the helm
of the Colonels, has posted a 35-33 record while
at Eastern and each year has moved the Colonels
closer t o an Ohio Valley Conference championship.
In the last three seasons, Eastern has finished
sixth, fourth, and third, respectively.
He hopes that the upcoming season will b e n o
different.
Backing up Strong's contention is the return
of three top-notch players from last year's squad
that finished 12-10 overall and 8-6 in the OVC.
Returning for his senior year is Carl Greenfield,
a muscular 6-6, 235-pounder who averaged 12.6
points and 11.8 rebounds last season. Greenfield
has led the Colonels in rebounding for two straight
y ears now.
Also back are guards George Bryant and Billy
Burton. Bryant, a deadly long-range shooter,
averaged 11.1 points per game last season, while
Burton, a very aggressive defensive player, scored
at a 9.5 per game clip.
16
Tw o promising sophomores w ill b e bidding for
startin g r oles.
6-10 Dan Argabright had a recent bout with
hepatitis and if he fully r ecovers should provide
t he Colonels with much needed height.
The other sophomore is 6-3 Charlie Mitchell 1
who has to be considered one of the top first-year
men in the nation. The former Louisville Seneca
High School star averaged 30.2 points and 17.0
r ebounds a game fo r the freshmen.
Senior Tim Argabright and juniors Daryl Du nagan and Chuck Worthington will also be pushing
for starting forward jobs. Argabright, a 6-7
Anderson, Ind., native averaged 4.2 points l ast
season, while Dunagan, a 6-5, 200-pound forw ar dcenter, scored 4.7 points per game. Wor thington ,
a 6-5 junior with uncanny jumping ability, will
be playing his first year for Eastern.
Guard support will come from senior Charles:
Elza, junior Charlie Brunker, and sophomores.
Wade Upchurch (19.8 ppg for the freshmen ), Phil
Storm (17.9 ppg) , and Vince Mrazovich (11.5 ppg) ..
For a closer look, let's talk with the man w ho,
knows, Coach Guy Strong:
Q : Offensively, how will we compare wit h l ast.
season?
A : "We will definitely miss Boyd (L y nch ) r
Toke (Coleman) , and Willie (Woods ). These t hree
�represented something like 45 points to our off ense. It will be tough to find replacements for
s uch outstanding players but we believe we have
ome men that are capable of filling their shoes.
C arl Greenfield will be our most experienced
p layer and we are expecting him to have his
f inest y ear. We are looking to Bryant (George)
and Mitchell (Charlie) to carry the bulk of our
s coring load. As a team, we will not be as big as
l ast year, but what we lack in size, we should
m ake up in quickness. Overall, we should have
better team speed and the potential to score a
1ot of points."
What about on defense?
A: "Our team speed should help here. Although we will basically be a man-to-man defensive
ball club, we will also employ the zone and press
when needed. We will have to concentrate on not
g iving our opponents the second and third shots
at the basket on the same trip down the floor.
Our lack of size could work to our advantage on
defense. It should enable us to be quicker and
•our defense should improve because of this."
Q:
Q : What about an overall picture of the
·C olonels' prospects?
A: "Once again we have scheduled some very
r ough non-conference teams. Our first road game
·of the year takes us to Big Eight powerhouse,
K ansas. We have Howard Payne, who finished
second or third in the small college rankings last
season. Over the Christmas holidays, we are in
the Evansville Tournament with Weber State, who
participated in the NCAA tourney last year. Virginia Tech, Dayton, and St. Francis (Pa.) are
other outstanding teams we have to cope with
again this year. In the OVC, of course, Western
will have to be the favorite. After that, the rest
of our league is balanced and we are pointing
:fnr a high.er finish this season than we have ever
..achieved while at Eastern."

Brooks led his team with 128 points for the tournament, the second
highest total in its history. Brooks averaged 27.8 points per game
his senior year for Madison. His main assets are: good size, good
quickness, adequate strength, an ability to score inside, and outstanding jumping ability.
Mike Haremski . . . 6-5 . . . 182 . . . forward . . . Saginaw,
Mich . ... Haremski averaged 15 points and 15 rebounds per game
as a senior in high school and made all-area first team. He has
average speed, but is an outstanding jumper for his size. Haremski
is very dedicated and hard working and will play forward for
the freshmen.
Kevin Kok ... 6-7 ... 225 ... center ... Louisville, Ky . ...
An All-District 22 and Region Six performer at Pleasure Ridge
Park High School, Kok averaged 12 points and 12 rebounds a game
his senior year, Kok was honored by being selected for the AllLouisville Invitational Tournament squad. Kok has good speed
for a boy his size. He is also big, strong, and aggressive and
should develop into a fine rebounder.
Richard Stansel . .. 6-6 ... 175 ... forward . .. Dayton, Ohio . ..
He was a first team All-City performer from Dayton Belmont
High School and averaged 17 points and 18 rebounds per contest
his senior year. Stansel is very fast, a good driver, and a definite
outside scoring threat. He moves well around the basket and is
excellent on tip-in shots.
26
�Bobby Newell . . . 6-2½ . . . 168 . . . guard . . . Winchester,
Ky . ... Newell was a first team All-State selection last year. A 6-3
guard from Clark County High School, he averaged 24.9 points
per game as a senior and was the leading scorer in the Mid State
Conference. An All-LIT and All Ashland Invitational Tournament
performer, Newell scored over 1,700 points in his high school
career. He is an excellent shooter with good range and a soft
touch. He played forward in high school and should have no
trouble making the conversion to guard this season because of
his excellent quickness.
Bob Wiegele . . . 6-7 . . . 228 . . . forward . . . Cincinnati,
Ohio . . . A first team All-City forward from Roger Bacon High
School, Wiegele averaged 20 points and 14 rebounds per game in
leading his school to the No. 2 rating in the Cincinnati area. He
has better than average speed and will probably divide his duties
between the forward and center positions. Wiegele is a good shot
and is also good on tipping the ball in the basket.

Top Returning Players: Dennis Grant (13.0 ppg.), Jim
Hairston (15.0 ppg.).
Series Record: Eastern leads the series, 28-16.
The Mountaineers should have one of the better teams in the KIAC, according to Berea head
'Coach W. C. Sergeant. Lack of height could present a problem, but Berea hopes to counter this
with the ability to fast break. Last year, Berea hit on 51 per cent of its field goal attempts and
it will be hard to accomplish this mark again with three sophomores breaking into the lineup.

seasons, coach Ted Owens has led the Jayhawks to two championships and finished second four
times. Robisch, the 6-9 southpaw who led the Big Eight in scoring at 26.5 ppg. last season, goes
into his senior year with an outside chance of becoming the league's all-time career scoring leader.
Other starters back besides Robisch are Pierre Russell (13.4 ppg.), Bud Stallworth (12.7 ppg.), and

Coach John Hiller returns seven lettermen, five of whom were starters last season. Of the ret urnees, Kevin Porter (23.6 ppg.) and Mike Copeland (12.1 ppg.) stand out as the ones to watch.
Hiller plans to capitalize on the team's speed and quickness in an effort to organize a strong defense. The Frankies should be able to press very effectively and utilize good overall height to
control the game under the boards.

Coach Chuck Noe returns three top-notch players and hopes to improve on last season's
record. Virginia Commonwealth has once again scheduled a number of major-college opponents
and the task of having a winning season will be rough. The Rams are more experienced this
year and should be better on defense, but still lack height and rebounding could be a problem.

The Dayton Flyers will return five lettermen from last season's 19-8 squad and several of last

Ohio
Valley
Conference
In 1941, foresighted men had visions of an Ohio
Valley Conference. Sports writers speculated
about the impending division of the Kentucky
Intercollegiate AthleJ ic Conference. Virtually all
agreed it was just a matter of time until the division took place and a new athletic conference
was formed.
Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and
America was plunged into World War II.
Seven years later, after the hostilities had
ceased, a pre-war dream became a post-war
reality. The "Big Five" of the K . I. A. C. withdrew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.
Making the move were Western Kentucky State
College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray
Stat e College, Morehead State College and the
University of Louisville. They w ere joined b y
Evansville College and, shortly thereafter, by
Tennessee Tech and Marshall College.
Purpose of the 0. V. C., as set forth in its constitution, is "to regulate, control, and promote all
the recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics
in institutions represented."
40
Through a gradual process, the Ohio Valley
Conference was to become a league of Kentuck
and Tennessee state colleges. Middle Tennessee
State College joined the rolls in 1952, East Tennessee State University in 1957 and Austin Peay
State College in the spring of 1962. They replaced
Louisville, which became an independent in 1949
and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in
1952.
In 1963, the league took another step forward
by appointing Arthur L . Guepe, former football
coach and athletic director at Virginia and Vanderbilt Universities, as the OVC's first full- tim ecommissioner.
Eastern ranks second in the league in confer ence
play in basketball with a 158-106 composite wonlost record. The Colonels have won three regularseason titles outright (in '53, '59 and '65) and
shared one title in 1961. Eastern has also won
OVC Tournament titles in 1950 and 1955.
Annually, the OVC presents an all-Sports
Trophy for over-all excellence in the entire athletic program. Eastern has won the trophy onceand finished second t w ice in the last five y ears_

Description
An account of the resource
The Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) Photograph Collection consists of photographs and negatives of students, faculty, and events at EKU. Subjects range from individual faculty headshots and classroom pictures to commencement and candid everyday student life photos. Organizational pictures, shots of campus in general, athletics and other official photos taken from the university photographer are also included. Many of these images were taken for publication in marketing materials or for use in the school newspaper, yearbook and alumni magazines. The collection also includes snapshots taken by employees attending events.
The collection may be used for all types of research, keeping in mind that individuals are often unidentified, so search broadly. All images available have been described here, but not all are scanned. Photographs with only a description can be requested by filling out a duplication request (see the link in the menu at the top of the page).
