'Concordia Senior College was once a dream, once an ideal. Older, it is true, than most of us: but only by a few years. One man stands out above all others in devotion and sincerity, and in determination to accom- plish this ideal, this dream: fitting it is that this man should then be chosen president of Concordia Senior College. We should be less than grateful were we to fail to take recognition of him. To you. then. Dr. Neeb, wr' respect- fully dedicale this hrs! volume of The Spire. 50' 2-:fit r ' ' ' ' ,i riff!

Dr. Neeb as moslr of us see him Dr. and Mrs. Ne-eb af home. foreword The theme of a yearbook is its purpose. The theme should then reflect some aspect of the school or cc.mmunity. or should be logically connected with it in some way. Beginning from this premise. we set Otlt to determine which aspect of the school might serve as a theme for us. lt is only when one begins systematically to ex- amine student life that he discovers how varied it may be. I-'ttrtliertnore, he is besieged with doubts concerning the validity of any one aspect aclecpiately to express for even to suggestj all that seems to belong in a y'earbook. From this point it is one short step to doubts about the validity of the premise itself, and only a little lzirther to doubts about the purpose of year- books in general and this book in particular. XVell, you say, why do we publish a yearbook? It must glorify God. But this is an answer more of motive than of purpose. That is to say. granted that it must glorify Cod, how may we accomplish this most effectively? Perhaps if we could tell the story of Cloncordia Senior Col- lege we would have accomplished our purpose. Thus our purpose has become our theme. I-'irst let ns tell you how Concordia Senior ficil- lege came itito being. 6 n june, lSl5O, at Milwaukee, XVisconsin, the forty-first regular convention of the 1.11- theran Cliurcli-Missouri Synod approved the basic proposal which ultimately gave the Church the completed Concordia Senior College eight years later. The idea, involving the largest single construction project in Missouri Synod history. had been brewing in the minds of some progres- sive educators since lSlfl5. when it was thor- oughly discussed by the Cleveland convention of the Cliurch. In 1947, the Centennial Convention of the Synod finally authorized and directed its Board for Higher Iiducation to incorporate the upper two college years into the ministerial training program of the Churcli. .-Xt that time, Dr. Mar- tin Neeb was lixecutive Secretary ofthe Board which developed the basic plan for the Senior College. The H1525 Houston, Texas, convention was the site for final approval of the plan aticl for the decision to locate the new school at Fort Hlayne, Indiana. The new campus is located five miles north ol downtown Fort XVayne. Its beautifully lands scaped lfll acres slope gently toward the eastern hounclary, the St. Qyloej River. The site is framed by twenty-five acres of wooded area along its western border. A small lake Cl acresj enhances the beauty of the college campus. C 1. F H .

First through an emphasis on worship in morning and evening devotions: second, through community living: and third, through formal instruction. The faculty numbered twenty-one on opening day. September 10, 1957. In addition to President Neeb and Professors W'alle, Bredemeier, Otto, XVente, and Jesse. the following fifteen men had joined the staff: Paul Harms. John F. Meyer.

They marvel at the beautiful loca- tion, the type of architecture, the decidedly modern classrooms, the unique arrangement of dormitories, the beautiful chapel, in fact the rather exceptional complex of buildingsf' In keeping with the admonition of his chosen text, the President emphasized the fact that all of the splendid facilities provided by the Church could achieve their full potential only if faculty and students conduct all their ac- tivities and studies on this campus in accord- ance with the eternal truths they have learned from God's inspired XVord.

The other side of the coin is just as real: we do some things that no other students do anywhere else. From one perspective perhaps none of the things we do seem importantg to the individual who does them they are each important. At any Tate, these are some of our activities. 59 Reliqioua Life The Religious Life Committee is a permanent committee of the Student Senate. Its function is to initiate and coordinate student religious activi- ties both on and off campus. The committee is organized on a dormitory level and on an all- campus basis. The various dormitories elect their own RI.C chairmen. who serve in a two-fold ca- pacity: as dormitorv religious activitv chairmen and as representatives to the all-campus Religious Life Committee. The larger committee is responsible for all-campus religious activities, and is divided into four areas: Division of Field XVork. Division of Missions, Di- vision of XVorship. and Division of Student Infor- mation and Fducation. These four divisions are further divided into sub-committees as needed. The DFXV provides students with opportunities for Christian service to others in local congrega- tions and institutions. The DM provides the stu- dents with local and foreign mission projects. The DNV is responsible for student-con ducted chapel services, special services, care of chapel. dinner prayers, etc. The DSIE provides the student body with useful religious literature, unique re- ligious displays, seminars and lectures. as well as Religious Life Committee pub- licity.

As a result, news coverage was expanded to include more current events, and the paper hit the stands every three weeks. Gene Holtz headed the capable staff as editor-in-Chief: Mel Murray was in charge of production: Tim Timmer- mann kept his eye on the finances, and Bob Kuhn saw to it that you received a copy.

The process of producing a single volume which is to be an adequate record of the people and events which make up a school involves many details of organization and investi- gation which were little dreamed of at the outset. But somehow they eventually fall into place, and the book is born. The Spire is no exception. 0f course there were casualtiesg luckily they have been minor. Notable among them is the failure of the staff to agree on a time when all could make it for a picture. he Above: Business Manager Don Muchow and Circularion Manager Dick Rada drop in on Assisfani' Edi'l'or Dave Yarringron +o check on ediiorial progress of The Spire.

I-iroin the intricate intramural program directed hv Coach Roland Haas. to the more widely known instruction of carry-over sports and intercollegiate athletics, the purposes of the Sen- ior College sports program are pointed and definite. Its ohiectives aim at providing diver- sion and recreation for us students, but also at developing skills and interests which will later he profitable for us. Borslce tb all Persistence does pay eff. Witness 'UQ' the accomplishments of the basket- ball Saxons. We Seniors can recall - the 1957-58 season, when nine per- .ztl .F il ' 5 e .X i te' Q XXUNEQ X - S 5 sistent classmates struggled through the long nights and cold winter on - '.'?,3,S T their way to a dearly bought 6-l3 H osx record. With the coming of the Junior class and its several lprom- Tom Faszholz-54 ised stars, plus the confidence gained by the experiences of that first year, optimism bristled at the Senior College. The Saxons entered the pre-season City of Richmond Tournament brim- ming with confidence. Then came defeat. After clinging to a narrow lead over high-ranked Taylor University through the first three quarters, the Saxons saw their star, Tom Faszholz, retired on his fifth personal. With him the slim lead, as well as their confident hopes for victory, also went to the bench. The second game was more trying than the first. Facing Marion College, who had twice been our victims in that other- wise lean first season, the Saxons were thoroughly beaten. This did not bring the end that might easily have come, however, for their dauntless quest of victory was at last successful. The formula had begun to work. The composite season record, 12-7, offers the final proof that persistence pays off. For the past two seasons success for the Saxons has borne the initials T.F. Tom Faszholz, looked to as leader by his team- mates and spectators alike, often single-handedly brought vic- tory to the Senior College corner. His selection to the All Tourney team at Richmond only foreshadowed one of the outstanding individual seasons in Indiana basketball. In ad- dition to his size and amazing touch, Torn's leadership on the floor usually guided Saxon maneuvers. This fact only adds prestige to his winning of the state's individual scoring honors. Above all, however, the thrilling 69-66 victory at Defiance in which Tom netted eight points in the electrifying overtime period, and -the dramatic 40-foot buzzer shot which brought a 58-56 win over Earlham will be remembered as two of the thrilling highlights of our years at Concordia Senior College. lmz4:. .T-:vrmf wr-nz, -.--1 - nr -.- ---1 v A ' D ,ze ' 'Nt P -1 ,Vg af 4, I, ,NX I4 I Q 34 ., H r r, A ', 'aw f D'iU?ae:1e-e 4' No. 33 Jim Albers if No, 50 Bob Benson No. I3 I , ' ZrJf3fr'5f wfa 'T Nc. 30 L Joe!

Often overshadowed by basketball, the budding Spring weather-good or bad-or just ordinary warm- weather attractions, baseball has not achieved the stature of importance on the Senior College campus which basketball holds. This does not mean, however, that baseball is unimportant. From the clutch pitching of Vern Gunderrnann to the dramatic steal of home by Don Winterrowd, the baseball Saxons provided us with many thrills and exhibitions of skill. These have also been very much a part of our life and experience here at Concordia. Below: The Baseball Saxons are under the direction ol Coach Roland l-laas. ' a J v. I 54+ .ff ' kiwi' J n..

Now you've seen it allg you know the facts and figures, the statistical report on Concordia Senior College. We haven't told you our value in dollars and cents, that's true. On the other hand, how should we measure it-in devalued dollars, in net manpower-hours, in potential purchasing power? And you don't really know the people Qunless you've met them personallyj, or the places Qunless you've been herej, or the spirit of Concordia Qun- less you've lived itj. In other words, why are we-individually and col- lectively-here? We could give as many answers as there are peo- ple. We could give more answers if we could pun them all into words. Everyone must ask himself Why? at least once in his life. We hope the next few pages help to answer the question for you. You are the judge. 91 If-an 1' ,Ti .fb , , r I. -l I The Kite Above the trees Beyond the hill, Awing on the breeze, Alive and athrill, Rippling and tugging, Swooping and shrugging, Then placidly sailing Aloof and aloft and unfailing Up.there, Somewhere, Enveloped in the bare And brilliant sky, Lofting and dancing Sun colt prancing: herea- loneonthe hillam GWT A small boy bought a dozen violets and planted them next to the alley in the clay where the sun fell most of the day. He watered them in the morning, again at night, surprised to find the ground dry like that. And they lost the green, they withered. He grew angry and stomped on them. Crushed them into the clay. One bloomed that night, with flower toward the ground: But the boy did not see it. One who had scoffed at beauty all his life became for a time less cynic, and with high hopes and a spark of love for them, he planted flowers in clay, beneath a searing sun. And when there was no bloom, and the leaves began to fade even as he watered them in anger Qfalling a tearj he crushed them to the ground beneath his heel and went away. But had he known, even in that barren spot, a broken stem had born a blossom for one short day, head toward the ground, for a tear had fallen on a parched bud.

DL A Teen-ager's Ode to Love Now as I ponder my sad, hopeless plight Of loving fully, but without return, I'd gladly give all senses, yea, e'en sight, For that dear one for whom I daily yearn. But how can one as commonplace as I, E'er hope that blessed angel to deserve? Unless God should decree it best I die, This unborn love I ever shall preserve. I must myself endeavor to improve, And make this lowly worm more worthy. Oh, In this meek way to show undying love, Unless I needs alone through life must go. And yet although it seemed my heart must break, Tomorrow I to new love may awake. RJW She sat upon the platform, moving now and then to make herself sit straighter, and looking at him. She smiled, and her eyes would change. He would say-if their eyes would meet, Turn your head And he painted. Each day the large canvas was covered, and she would want to see, but he would tell her to wait. Then when he laid down his brush after only an hour's time, She knew that it was finished. She came down from the platform with a smile, and looked at the picture. And there were white waves, leaping at immobile cliffs, and hereawhite flower with pink edges blooming on the moss, and another on the branch ofadead tree. A bird sang from a scarlet throat just above. Nowhere was her faceg but he said, You're there as much as you could be.
