GiAwri tfii . - T j . — ' iV y ? oCiberti it AS PORTRAYED IN ACTION BY THE STUDENTS DURING THE WAR YEAR 1943-44 AT MARION COLLEGE, MARION, INDIANA. Jhe 1944 1 Vlarioncttc Robert Wetzel, Editor Gordon Kindschi, Bus. Mgr. Pro!. Donald Porter, Advisor Engraving: The Indianapolis Engraving Co. A CTIVITIES in the dining hall begin a long time before the rising bell at 6:00 a. m. Sleepy eyed students arrive for breakfast at 6:30. Every morning devotions are given by one of the students at the request of the Dean of Women. A little more awake after the early morning chatter over cereal and rolls, some of the less fortunate dash to the early morning class at 6:55 while the more leisurely may have some time to study before the two remaining class periods that precede chapel services each day. At chapel they participate in group singing, a short worship service, listen to announcements by the president and faculty. Usually there is an interesting program of special speakers or some other informa¬ tional guide in preparation for life. The health of the students is closely guarded as shown by the picture of the local nurse giving one of the students the patch test for tuberculosis check-up. Four dll ert WITHIN LICENSE O UR repatriated missionary enjoys liberty of spending leisure time in the museum. Liberty is one of the greatest inalienable rights with wh ich we are endowed. It is but one of the many privileges we enjoy. Liberty governed by justice and equality—a motive for democracy. Of course, automobile rides are not as numerous or extensive as they formerly were, but occasionally the students have the privilege of riding in one of the limousines seen around the campus. This is a strictly business enterprise: a gospel team loading for points north. Smiles were free and abundant when service men, former students, returned for brief visits with old friends. Five ■ ■ [J APPINESS is an elusive thing to pursue. It means so many things to so many of us; but because of our heritage, we are welcome to happiness wherever we find. it. The parlor is the scene of many a game of checkers and chess and friendly talk. A joyful event in the fall is the annual Thanksgiving dinner with decorations of fodder, pumpkins, and squashes. Later in the year students delight in the Christmas Dinner and Birthday Banquet. || . Among other activities of course there is the freshman initiation. Three happy freshmen pose with their bright green hair- bows. r Six I CONGAS S JvsiX4 , ITT a ' ' -UJ 4’’asnJv fl ru z ZZ ZZZaZ SZ r A uZ S TUDENT life today is much more intensive than it formerly was—now filled with many experiences, both joyous and tragic as well as the usual routine of classes and extra-curricular activities. To the hid¬ eous monster, War, human life is cheap—is destroyed en masse and forgotten as time goes by. To us, Life remains precious—full of dreams, tears, laughter and has the possibility of making the world sweeter, purer, lighter, richer, and nobler. Marion College life is pat¬ terned after the Christ who said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life” and, “putting first things first,” in that Way we live—knowing we will not have lived in vain. Eight. Jf ' ' . V f ' ■fPy yWlBJBBlLg [(Ji .. ., ADMINISTRATION F OR the past twelve years Dr. William F. McConn has headed the activities of Marion College. He has freely contributed to the life of both the students and the school as a whole. He has wisely guided many of us in our pursuit of happiness. A common phase of the life is here shown where Dr. McConn dictates one of his many letters to Miss Jones, his secretary. Eleven ■ F OR eighteen years John D. Williams has served as treasurer of Marion College. During this time he has been efficient in his serv ice and has added greatly to the happiness and well-being of Marion College. Here we see Mr. Williams and bookkeeper Arney in the treasurer’s office. Twelve Allen Bowman, A.B., M.A., Ph.D. Dean of College History, Social Sciences Blanche M. Goodwin, B.S. in Ed., M. Ed.

Front Row: Prof. Taylor, Zent, Jackson, Mrs. DeVol, Decker, Freeborn, Meddock. T HE Student Council plays an important part in the life on the campus. It is com¬ posed of the president, one additional representative from each class, the dean of women and the dean of men. William Meddock served as president of the Student Council this year. The group sponsored a school project for the construction of a new cement tennis court. The organization usually meets two Monday evenings a month. It acts as spokesman from the student body to the faculty. The council aids in gov¬ erning student life, listens to students’ desires and does much to preserve their happiness. Sixteen SENIOR SAGES . . Huffman, Zent, Jones, Svozil, Higgins. A S THIS class arrived at M. C. in the fall of 1940, it was royally welcomed and initiated by the Sophomores. Each year they very capably displayed talent and entertaining ability in Chapel programs. As Juniors it was this class that gave up the greatest number of its members to the Armed Forces. In honor of these members to these, the Chapel program this year did much in creating patriotism at M. C. Other events of the Junior year were the entertaining of the Seniors at the spring banquet and the detaining of the Senior sneak for about four hours. As Seniors, though decreased in number by war and marriage, this class can boast of an enrollment slightly greater than that of Senior classes of the past few years. For weeks, at the beginning of the year, the Juniors lost much sleep because of them, but all for nothing—the Seniors only went to the Pence farm for dinner. The officers are president, Verdon Higgins; vice-president, Clarence Huffman; sec¬ retary, Virginia Jones; treasurer, Betty Svozil; Student Council representative, Helen Zent.

T HE Junior class is unusually large this year—having a number of transfers from Miltonvale and Central. It has many talented students with great possibilities, and engages in numerous activities around the campus: religious, debate, sports, liter¬ ary societies and departmental clubs. A particular project this year was the sponsoring of the annual Junior-Senior banquet in May. This is one of the biggest undertakings that the class sponsors during its four years at Marion College. The group gave a party for all new students at the beginning of the fall term. Junior officers are president, Forrest Boyd; vice-president, Marjorie Elder; secre¬ tary; Beulah Johnson; treasurer, Loring Peterson; Student Council representative, Twenty 1st Row: JUSTENE ARNETT Cary.

S OPHOMORE class is composed of fifty-four members who represent fifteen states. Having acquainted themselves with M. C. the previous year, the members of this class were able to build their hopes higher in another year at school. As Freshmen they occupied an afternoon raking leaves on the campus and were duly rewarded with apples as a gift from their sponsor. In the first term of this year they contributed toward the welcoming of the new Fresh¬ man class, making the Freshman day a “bright” one for the newcomers. Officers elected for the year were president, J. W. Kiser; vice-president, Maurice Burns; secretary, Ardene Higgins; treasurer, Joyce York Ott; and Student Council rep¬ resentative, Warren Freeborn. Fourteen members of the original number in the class are now serving in the Armed Forces of our country.

After the awe of registration day they settled down to study and fun—not forgetting the realities of war. With fewer fellows, how could they forget? This distinguished group was organized with Jane Decker as president. By this time they were ready for action. One of the outstanding occasions was the Freshman initiation. Then came Rush Day, with the majority allying themselves with the Amphics. When it came to choosing between dignified seniority and unobserved complacency, they decided to be strictly “Freshman.” Other officers are vice-pres., Verma Day; secretary, Larry Cate; treasurer, Francis Ott; Student Council representative, Lois Jackson.

THE HOMES WE LIVE IN . . T ETER Hall is one of the largest buildings on the Marion College campus. It houses most of the women students as well as including the Dean of Women’s office and living quarters, the reception rooms, music studio and practice rooms, art studio, class rooms, library, kitchen, dining hall, Marionette and Journal offices. Because of the increased enrollment of women this fall, it was filled to capacity and a west wing on the third floor was converted into eight rooms. There was still an over flow of girls into Baker House, a nearby tourist home. Thirty-two A N HISTORICALLY quaint brick dwelling trimmed in white and setting well back on a large green lawn is known as Congress Hall, the home of M. C.’s single men students. Located between the gymnasium and the College church, it is surrounded by ever¬ green trees and shrubs. Traditionally a depot for Slave-runners’ underground, it finds its present use a far cry from its past history. Thirty-three CONGY SS JuiX4,i7T6 5tt« s ’ . . V- “• cr w r- ' O UR liberty has been defended through the years by the life blood of American patriots. As a re¬ sult, today we have our freedom—liberty to worship, think, speak, work, live as we desire. We have made use of the liberty to come to the campus and prepare for the way of life we have chosen. Certainly we owe our allegiance to the principles which guarantee these freedoms for all men. Freedom today is more priceless than ever before. Our freedom, our liberty is being fought for, preserved and defended with the very lives of former classmates.

S. F ( ro tec ted “LI ALT! WHO GOES THERE?” might well be the cry of the service man here more than 125 Marion College students and alumni who have an¬ swered the call to protect the liberty we so highly prize. The representatives of Marion College in the Armed Forces have given and are giving today everything that life holds deal for them that the Christian institutions like Marion College might live in the world. We pay tribute to the three men listed to date as “missing in action”: Lt. Charles Mag- gart, missing for over a year in the Southwest Pacific where he had piloted a combat plane; Seaman First Class Raymond E. Hughes, missing in the Mediterranean area; and Sgt. Edwin Ramsburg of the Army Air Corps also reported missing in the Mediterranean area. We shall cherish their memory and dedicate ourselves to the task of maintaining Marion College as a Christian institution for which men might consider it worthwhile to die if such necessity faced them. Second Lieutenant John K. York of the Air Corps here typifies the Marion College servicemen. He has the moral courage and spiritual stamina characteristic of the Chris¬ tian youth whose names here are listed with their respective branches of service as we have it to date.

COLLEGE CHURCH Thirty-eight C OLLEGE Wesleyan Methodist church provides spiritual nourishment and guidance to the young people, giving them a f.rm foundation in the essentials of the Christian faith. The church choir, under the direction of Prof. Her¬ man Baker, is composed mainly of students. The inspiration and enthusiasm of their young lives stimulates the church as a whole in more abundant living. Most Marion College students faithfully attend the College church. The present pastor of the church came from Miltonvale Wesleyan College church at Miltonvale, Kansas. Rev. War¬ ren S. Freeborn and his wife are warm friends of the students a? well as serving as their spiritual leaders. I STUDENT CONFERENCE . . Standing: Day, Klatt, Shugart, Carey, Huffman. Seated: Fisher, Elder. T O MOST M. C. students, the Student Conference means prayer and praise services, and opportunity to serve in the capacity of messengers of the gospel of Christ. In the Tuesday night services and the noon prayer meetings through¬ out the week comes the opportunity for the prayer and praise coupled with exhortation from conference evangelists and testimony in song. Opportunity of service is found as the conference sends teams regularly to the jail, the infirmary, the orphans home. In this service rendered and praise offered, many of the students find the secret of happy Christian living. Paul Shugart headed the Student Conference as president this year, and his staff was as shown in the picture above. Thirty-nine FREEDOMS RELIGIOUS Standing: Kiser, Higgins.

The quartet is made up of selected young men who are ded¬ icated to the cause of Christ and are most able to serve Him in song. Their appearance is the promise of good music and spiritual encouragement with such songs in their repertoire as, “All Hail the Power,” “Shine on Me,” “If You Want Joy.” As far as the rationing and facilities permitted the four travelled for their programs.

Forty-four CHOIR T T NDER the direction of Prof. Herman Baker, the college a capella choir enjoyed a profitable season though again this year its personnel was fast shifting and the extensive traveling limited. Despite the surrounding conditions, the song of the Christian heart does not change in principle. There is always that hope, that faith, that love which blossoms into a full-orbed note of inspiration through the living voice. Some twenty voices uniting to sing such a message is the college choir, interpreters of the thought and then the tone, ambassadors of th e message through that interpretation. CHORUS TV I ARION College Community Chorus under the direction of Prof. Baker, is an appreciated feature of the college music year. Under the press¬ ing war time contingencies, separate groups were forced to practice for the programs at different times through the week up to the time of presenta¬ tion. But the over-all effect was the same as always with its impressive majesty. Handel’s famous oratorio, The Messiah, was presented at the Christmas season this year as usual, and the spring concert was Maunder’s cantata, “From Olivet to Calvary.” Both concerts featured student soloists and the a capella choir.

Most of its members carry history or social studies majors, but all are possessed of a global consciousness. Releases from the Carnegie sponsor are placed in the club library at the disposal of any student. This club is a chapter of the national organization and participated in a regional conference at Chicago this spring. A questionnaire for the student body aroused interest in current events when presented by the club this year. Ruth Bolen has served as its president. SCIENCE CLUB T HE Science club finds its members among those who enjoy or have enjoyed the study of science courses. An evening chapel program featured this year the dissection of a dog. The club sponsor reported in a special meeting on two National chemical conventions which he at¬ tended during the year. Ervin Boone, assistant in the science department, was president of the club which stimulated interest in things scientific on the campus. Fifty RELATIONS . . ..

WESTERNERS ROM the great expanse west of the Indiana border come many energetic out of door enthusiasts to Marion College. Along with them comes the love of billowing wheat and uniquely blue skies or cloud-surrounded mountain country. To regain some of this atmosphere, the club annually takes an early morning hike which ends with a good breakfast in the crisp Indiana air. They, as did other state clubs, gave a chapel program and had a club party as others were doing. A club project was in the process of planning at this writing. HOOSIERS T HE Hoosiers have naturally the largest state club membership. They play an important part, in welcoming out-of-state youth to the “old % triangle in the heart of Hoosier-land.” Lorman Elliott was this year’s president of the club. Through the sponsorship of the club the office of the president was the recipient of a refurbishing, including paper and paint. Soon after the Christmas holidays the Hoosiers enjoyed a “Hobo Party,” donning the appropriate garb for such an occasion, and conducting themselves in appropriate manner. Sixty-one EASTERNERS . . . DIXIES . . EASTERNERS T HE Easterners are the smallest among the state clubs in numbers but their enthusiasm ranks with the greatest when it comes to love of their native states or to support of the alma mater. Leon Barse headed the club this year which gave an inspirational chapel program early in the year and donated additional black-out curtains for the chapel, supplementing those donated by seniors of ’43 to equip the room for visual education films by day. DIXIES A SK a Dixie-lad or a Dixie-lass what they’d like for good eating, and this whole club will vote for shortnin’ bread, ham, black-eyed peas, and grits ’n’ gravy every meal every day. Aside from the fact that they hail from the south of the Mason-Dixon line, they rate a successful girls’ basketball team and group of Central transfers to their credit. Frank Warren was their president. A sunrise breakfast was a feature of the year’s program which they enjoyed at the sponsor’s home. WOLVERINES M ICHIGANITES were credited with an increase in membership this year and were their usual snow-loving, efficient selves. Dwight Zavitz was elected president of the club.

Their organization patterned after the Federal gov¬ ernment with a Secretary of State, Treasurer, etc, is called the Senators and Representatives. Annually they sponsor the Easter Breakfast, trying their hand at pre¬ paring the entire meal and serving it to inquisitive attenders in an appro¬ priate atmosphere. The number in the hall does not vary much from year to year with sixteen as the maximum accommodated in the dormitory and particpating in the activities of the S. A. R.

T HE boys at Marion College play a game of basket ball that is fast and furious. Many a time the sidelines roar with enthusiasm at the players’ feats.

Eurekan Lloyd Linder was the winner over Amphic Paul Shugart in the final stage. First How: Amphic, Eurekan. Second Row: Juniors, Hoosiers. Seventy-four WOMEN ACTIVATE IT . .

More than 125 of her sons and daughters are in the service. Included in the group are nine chaplains and there are more with applications pending, ' these heroic souls have served in Africa, Sicily, Italy, England, New Guinea, Australia, Hawaii, India, the Philippines, Alaska, Panama, the Pacific, the Southwest Pacific, the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and their sphere of service is constantly widening. One is a Japanese prisoner of war, and three have paid the supreme sacrifice. Marion College dedicates herself to the task of carrying the banner of Christian education through the war period, be it long or short. Today, we are overcrowded in both classrooms and dormitories. An increase in student body is forcing us to lay plans for a new building. The board has approved a campaign for a new Administration-Library building to be erected as a post-war project. Ten per cent of its cost is already in the treasury. Will you help Marion College meet this need? Christian Education must carry on. Send contributions to J. D. Williams, treasurer.

It is the home of mv soul, the altar of my devotions, the hearth of my faith, the center of my affections and the foretaste of heaven. I have united with it in solemn covenant, pledging myself to attend its services, to pray for its members, to give to its support, and to obey its laws. It claims the first place in my heart, the highest place in my mind, the principal place in my activities, and its unity, peace and progress con¬ cern my life in this world and in that which is to come. I owe it my zeal, my benevolence and my prayers. When I neglect its services, I injure its good name, I lessen its power, I discourage its members, and I chill my own soul. I have solemnly promised in the sight of God and men to advance its interests by faithful attendance, by reading the Holy Bible, by never neglecting its ordinances, by contributing to its support, by meeting with my fellow members, by watching over their welfare, and by joining with them in prayer, praise and service, and that promise I this day renew, before God my Father, Christ my Redeemer, and the Holy Ghost my Sanctifier.—John Bunyan Smith.
