Time Is Relevant Potomac State College
of
West Virginia University
Keyser, West Virginia
1973-1974
To all those who helped in the production of the 1974 "Time Is Rele-
vant" Catamount.
To Mr. Yancy Overby, Delmar representative, who made many a trip
from Virginia to explain some facet of printing. To Mr. Dennis Carpenter
who helped insure that the yearbook had top quality pictures. To Miss
Irene Brown and Mr. Elwood Layman who lent the use of their typing
rooms. To Dr. Elizabeth Atwater who gave some much needed moral
support. And a Special thank you to Mr. William Gallier, the Catamount
sponsor, who helped do anything that had to be done — from the typing
of masters to the mailing of pages.

Time phases out of the mind many names and faces and experiences. Only a yearbook
remembers.
The lengthening shadows on the face of a dial, the darkening streaks down the sides of
a building, the ticking of a clock, the sound of the hour bells, the running of sand in the
hour-glass and the age lines on the faces of those we see are all outward signs of the
passing of the hours. Time is not only the measure of life but its medium. "An hour
wasted is existence; used is life."
On these pages are the Relevant Times we will savor in the afterglow of tomorrow
when faces and events long since have ebbed into the shadows of memory. For us at
Potomac State College to be used not wasted for our Relevant Time is now.

MESSAGE FOR CATAMOUNT — 1973-1974
The past year I have been proud to be a part of Potomac
State College and the traditions which surround it. I am
encouraged that students, faculty, and staff have worked
together as a team, and the results of this effort are re-
warding.
We are in an age of accountability, as well as an age of
inflation, but I am confident that if we continue to work
together as a unit, we can build an even better Potomac
State College, and in turn be better prepared for the
challenging future in the years ahead.
Congratulations to the Catamount staff for an excellent
publication.
A. G. Slonaker
Dean of the College
Prof. James T. Handlan, associate dean
Aside from being a nostalgic record for students at
Potomac State College, each yearly issue of the Cata-
mount carries an important history of this college.
The changes that have been made, the advances in
knowledge, new attitudes, and the way each class
faces the challenges of its year are found within the
covers of the yearbook. The tempo of the time is here,
and how each class searched for solutions to the
problems of its day is written for all to see. The
students and their faculty sponsor who worked to
produce the yearbook are to be congratulated for the
excellent results which are set here for a record of
1974.

PHI SIGMA NU
Phi Sigma Nu, founded in 1922, has been an outstanding social
group on the campus of Potomac State College. The fraternity
was granted a National Charter by the National College Panhellenic
and has been designated Beta Chapter.
The fraternity began its year with a successful and entertaining
pledge party during the fall "Rush Week," which netted them
several members. In the autumn activities the fraternity sponsored
a candidate for Miss Homecoming. Miss Deborah Brady reigned as
princess at the Sigma sponsored "Sweetheart Ball."
The Fraternity demands college spirit, interest in all college ac-
tivities, high moral standards, individual development of character
and leadership, and scholastic achievement from all its members.
Men who are now away from the college but often return to
visit their old fraternity are indications of the fact that the bonds of
friendship established in Phi Sigma Nu provide lasting memories in
future years.

in order that a closer relationship between the administration and
the student body could exist. Although the council's main objec-
tives are of the administrative nature, it also promotes school spirit
and fellowship.
Throughout the school year the Student Government promoted
many important events. They planned the Homecoming Parade and
other Homecoming events and sponsored the Wednesday Night
Movies at the Church-McKee Art Center.

time activities. This organization is open to all women enrolled in Potomac State and provides sound

The purpose of the DHDC is to represent the views and attitudes held by the residents of Davis Hall
Dormitory; to provide activities and functions for the residents of Davis Hall; to represent Davis Hall
Dorm as an institution on campus working for the bettermen of college community life.
Members of the council, including two representatives from each floor, as well as a set of officers,
all meet every other Tuesday to discuss ideas for the Dormitory. Activities have included purchase and
construction of the new volleyball court located in front of Davis Hall, several open dorms, purchase of
game room equipment, and the sponsoring of coffee during finals week.
The council has overcome a few of the many problems of dormitory life and hopes to conquer many
more, especially the problem of destruction of the property in the dormitory; to overcome this problem
is perhaps the greatest goal or project for the council in the future.

DEFENSIVE STANDOUTS: Linebackers Ray Marshall, left, of Clairton, Pa., and Randy Noel of Covington, Va., were standouts on defense as
Potomac State's Cats won their opener, 21-13, over Harford on the road. Marshall a standout here two years ago before being injured and
missing the second half of the season, had eight unassisted tackles, four assists, and sacked the quarterback four times. Noel, all-Coastal
Conference linebacker and perhaps the best in the league last year, had seven unassisted tackles and six assists in the game. The State
coaching staff from head coach Cecil Perkins on down believes both are worthy of All-American consideration.

"Sports teaches everyone who is a part of it to be

victory — to master themselves before they attempt
to master others. To learn to laugh, but not forget
how to weep. And most important, it teaches the
dominance of courage over timidity."

Ancient Statue is Origin of PSC Newspaper Title
When Potomac State became a junior college in
1921, the staff of the former publication, The Pre-
paratory Herald, wanted a new title for the college
newspaper and chose the name Pasquino from one
of the famous "talking" statues of Rome. The statue's
origin was derived from a hunchbacked tailor named
Pasquino, whom Romans feared and respected be-
cause of his biting, but amusing, sarcasm. After Pas-
quino's death, the neighborhood people erected an
antique statue in his memory. This statue became a
target for sharp commentaries on the life of the
period — safe because anonymous. The statue
proved so effective an agent to secret protest that it
and similar statues began to "talk."
Carrying news of the campus to students, faculty
and a wide public is the college newspaper, the
Pasquino, a fortnightly publication staffed by stu-
dents majoring in journalism assisted by a group of
volunteer staff members.
The Pasquino's press run of 2200 copies is distrib-
uted to students, faculty and staff on the campus.
In addition, a mailing list of well over 1000, contains
the names of parents of all non-commuting students,
alumni throughout the world, hundreds of other
colleges and high schools of the tri-state area,
friends of the college, and advertisers.

The Catamount Staff with completion of the thirty-
sixth edition of the Catamount, Potomac State's
college yearbook, hope that we have included all the
activities and highlights of the school year that
you will want to remember. Once again we read
the theme and were reminded that "Time is Rele-
vant." We hope that each of you realize time has no
end because yesterday is experience and tomorrow
is hope. And no matter where you journey you will
prosper, find success, and use this book often as a
means of reliving your days at Potomac State Col-
lege.

Designing a layout
Catamount is the folk name given to the mountain lion
and sometimes to the lynx. A savage catlike animal, a
large fierce wildcat, as in ancient Rome is the Potomac
State symbol of liberty. Two bits of folklore surrounded
the life of a cat; the first, being clever, and the second,
having "nine lives."

Good Witch Chris with a ghoulish friend
A time.
Of leaving home and being thrown
into a different world. Alone.
Registration. Waiting in lines. Closed classes,
wrong professors, 8 AM classes. Waiting
only to wait some more.
The best of times.
The worst of times.
Phantom parties, dances, weekends.
Finals, term papers, 3-hour labs.
A Time of adjustment to dorm life.
Streakers, panty raids, sloe-gin.
Pulling all-nighters.
Making friends to be always remembered.
Joking at the dinner table. Wasting
time in the Union. Partying at the Attic.
Open house.
Wondering how the year has gone so fast.
Parting with friends you will never
see again.
Our time at Potomac State for 1974 has ended
But the relevance remains forever.
