Text from Pages 1 - 168 of the 1958 volume:

Foreword : am OMA GE a a a ie x . Phil Workman, Editor: With this page, which should be a foreword — we look back. And in looking back, we want to thank the administration, the faculty; the staff for the fine cooperation we received as this book grew from first draft to final printing. Without that cooperation there could hardly have been a yearbook at all. So between these covers are their contributions, their splendid help, and our thanks. Dedication Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety ——Shakespeare It is with great pleasure that we‘dedicate the 1958 Pine Whispers to Professor May Pyle Andrews. Founders Hall % ¥ , % ON ENAY . Pati� oe “a é es ety ; eee Sage é i 1 gi any 0 This modern building was constructed in 1954 and was first occupied in September of that year. Founders, occupying the site of the original campus building which was destroyed by fire in 1952, houses the departments of education, art, speech, home management, physics, and a number of others. Founders Hall also contains the Little Theater, which is fully equipped and seats 236 people, and the radio broadcasting station, WACC. Mem orial Chapel Dedicated in 1952, Ashland College’s Memorial Chapel has been a valuable asset to the campus. The main auditorium, which seats over 1000 people, contains a large speaking platform complete with organ and piano. In the basement, there are var- ious classrooms, meeting rooms, and a small prayer room which enables the student to be alone for a few minutes. Myers Memorial Home Since 1940, the Department of Music has had the use of the stately, four-story Myers mansion at the corner of College Ave- nue and Center Street. This building was given to Ashland College by the children of the late Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Myers and has had all of its twenty-five rooms adapted to meet the needs-of the department. These rooms, providing for studios, classrooms, practice rooms, and a large recital room, have made the building equal to any modern college music department. In August 1957, the home of the late John C. Myers officially became part of Ashland College. The building now houses the Theological Seminary, the graduate school of Ashland College. On the first floor are the administrative offices, the library, two lounges for all the gatherings of the seminary group, and a dining room fully equipped to serve seminary parties. On the second floor are the faculty offices and four large classrooms. Each class- room has beautiful carpeting and conference table for informal discussions. ‘The seminary chapel is located above the library. Allen Miller Hall ASASBANK This red brick building, constructed in 1923, serves many functions on the Ashland College campus. The first floor is given over to biological; geological, and chemical laboratories and classrooms. The second floor contains various admuinistra- tive offices and classrooms. The seminary library and the college library, with its study room and its reading and conference rooms, occupy the third floor. The libraries contain complete reference works, modern fiction and non-fiction, newspapers, and monthly periodicals. Gymnasium The present gymnasium, constructed in 1927, was built to re- place the old gymnasium which had burned to the ground the previous year. The gymnasium houses the offices of the Physical Education and Athletic departments in addition to a basketball court of larger than average size. The floor is adapted: to intra- mural games as well as intercollegiate sports and the gymnasium seats more than 1000 spectators. North of the building is Red- wood Stadium, where football games, May Day festivities, intra- mural games, and a number of other events are scheduled. Jacobs Hall aati tea one ie NA ia aa Sea ee erent na wee iS a A th a RBINNE aae Nin tails ea ie Nat i tk i, SEH. ese son stasasae q This modern dormitory was dedicated to a former President of Ashland College, Dr. Edwin E. Jacobs, and was first occupied in January 1956. The building is over two hundred feet long and was built to provide housing for 145 students. As of now, the building houses men on the east side of the second floor, the third floor, and the fourth floor. Women are housed on the first floor and the west side of the second floor. The building also provides a large dining hall for both men and women. Allen Hall In 1890, Ashland College’s second building was built to ac- commodate students at the college. It was built from bricks made from native clay on what was then an extension of the college. It housed all students and family units, each room being heated by a pot-bellied stove. Since then, the building has been re- modeled to house some sixty freshman and sophomore girls, be- sides accommodating the college nurse and the alumni office. In the near future, a new girl’s dormitory is planned and the old one will then be converted to other uses. Student Union %; ‘ ' a ah 8 we This modern building, completed in 1953, is the center of student campus activity. Bowling, table tennis, and checkers are the principal activities shared by the students. The lower floor contains the Eagle’s Nest or snack bar, bowling alleys, juke box, and the ping-pong tables. A modern lounge, complete with. tele- vision and record player, occupies the upper floor along with the Collegian, Pine Whispers, and Brethren Youth offices and var- ious meeting rooms. 14 i VOHCHSMUMIpY pue 4ypmoey John, Mrs. Clay ton, Dr. Clayton, Lennie President Glenn L. Clayton In 1948, Dr. Glenn L. Clayton became pres- ident of Ashland College. Shortly after he took office, the ten year expansion program for the decade 1950 to 1960 was announced. The main point under this program was the expansion of the Ashland College campus through the construction of new buildings. Under the leadership of Dr. Clayton, four of the proposed six new buildings to be con- structed by 1960 have been completed. In ad- dition, he has been working and making plans for Kate Myers Hall, a new dormitory to house over 100 women students. Under the leader- ship of Dr. Clayton, Ashland College has as- sumed more and more responsibility for the training of young people in the area around the city of Ashland.

This active class has created a “busy buzz’ on campus this year, not only by its size of 224, (which incidently is the largest freshman class ever to enroll at A. C.) but by its attendance and participation in activities on campus. Several parties were sponsored by the class, which kept the class officers and the social committee on their toes. They traditionally decorated the Grant Street entrance to the college during Homecoming. In conjunction with the sophomore class they sold Ashland College Rugs.

The choir this year was one of the better choirs on campus in recent years. The choir tour, which lasted from February 16 to February 23, included Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. In these states they presented a religious program in Brethren churches and a lighter program at high schools and various service clubs. The choir presented their annual home concert March 2, with guest artist Miss Elizabeth Pastor, Instructor of Piano at Ashland College. An almost capacity crowd filled the Chapel for this very fine concert. The choir was under the capable direction of Mr. Calvin Y. Rogers, Head of the Department of Music at Ashland College.

Funds used in these various projects are raised by the club members working as a group. The bulk of the financial resources are derived from ushering at all home football games and operating the concession stand at the sectional high school basketball tournament held at the college. 89 90 Collegian SEATED, left to right: Sonnie Casper, Chuck Ritter; Tom Warner, George Russ, and Paul Srnis. STANDING: Marlene Schelling, Martha Petty, Bill Yosa, and John Flora. The Collegian Staff is composed of all full-time students interested in working on the campus newspaper. Since the college has no journalism department, the work is done out of interest and service rather than as a course assignment. The paper was frequently honored with the philosophies of such anonymous journalists as Louella and Walter, Jay H. Blume, and Peter Penman. This year’s staff has done a remarkable job and should be congratulated. Particular praise should be given to Editor Tom Warner, who spent many hours of time and labor in making this year’s Collegian one of the best in recent years.

Several times during the year dinner meetings are held in foreign restaurants; the foreign food and atmosphere lend much to make the nationality being discussed at that time more realistic. 91 Allen Hall Council The governing body of Allen Hall met twice a month to discuss dorm problems, pass legislation, and handle matters of importance for its resi- dents.

All men living in the dormitory automatically become members of the Dorm Council and are entitled to its privileges and should assume its responsibilities. All men in good standing have voting rights. Council members elect three officers each year. These three officers, plus an elected representative from each wing of the dorm, the House Director, the dorm counselors, and the Dean of Men form the Dormi- tory Court. Cabinet meetings are held weekly and all phases of dormitory activities are formulated. Special committee chairmen are also invited to attend these meetings to report their group’s activities. Meetings for all residents are held monthly. These meetings usually include some social as well as business activities. SEATED, left to right: K. Bennett, D. Hall, R. Lepre, and J. Decker.

Together they plan Homecoming decorations, a Christmas party for dorm residents, Mother’s Weekend arrangements, and May Day activities. Senior House Council Senior House is a residence hall for junior and senior girls. At the beginning of each year the girls elect officers to represent them. ‘These officers, along with the housemother, Mrs. Thompson, and the Dean of Women, compose the house council. Activities throughout the year consisted of decorating for Homecoming, participating in campus organizations, and participation in the different social activities held by the residents of Senior House.

A scribe should be the epitome of tolerance, the personification of intelligence, the essence of leadership, and the height of morality. The scholarship requirement for Scribes is a cumulative grade average of 2.8 or above. Coupled with this scholarship requirement is a literary ability which may be either creative or interpretive. Two meetings are held monthly. One is devoted to the business activities of the Scribes and the second meeting is formal, in which the traditional dress of white shirt, black tie, and dark suit is worn. This formal meeting is devoted exclusively to the reading of papers prepared by the members or to the listening of a guest speaker. Aero Norge...

Approximately 600 American schools are represented in this organiza- tion, and its purpose is to provide a list of top-notch leaders from each of the college campuses. Those chosen for this honor are compiled on a list by this organization and the list is then published and made available to businessmen and educators, Information and literature pertaining to jobs and job oppor- tunities are sometimes offered to those who have received this honor. Ashland College’s personnel committee makes selections and voting takes place at the beginning of a Senior’s college year. He is chosen on governmental leader- ship, extracurricular activities, scholarship, future promise, attitude or citizenship, and service to the college. Paul H.

The Westminster Choir Concert-Lecture Series Adele Addison Miss Addison is one of our finest young American so- pranos. Her recital in New York’s famed Town Hall last January 27 brought the following comment in the New York Times: “The recital by Adele Addison in ‘Town Hall last evening proved one of the most interesting, as well as satisfying, of the season. For variety, length and quality the program certainly must have had few like it in several years.” 121 122 Concert-Lecture Series The LaSalle String Quartet The LaSalle Quartet was organized in New York in 1946. Since then it has served on the faculties of Colorado College and the Cincinnati College of Music as the quartet-in-residence. In addition to nation-wide tours each year the quartet has won international acclaim through its world tours in 1954 and again in 1956. Faculty-Student Banquet Although the Faculty-Student Banquet is only two years old, it has been a success and will probably continue for many years. ‘The banquet is another way of showing the excellent relationship between the faculty and the student body. Tuesday evening, November 26, 1957, 255 students and faculty enjoyed a delicious turkey dinner at the First Christian Church. Entertainment for the evening included Mr. and Mrs. Leo Jones of Ashland, who sang duets from musical comedies, and Mr. Mack Sauer, author, radio commentator, traveler, country newspaper editor, and publisher, who captivated the audience by his never-ending humor. 123 124 In Memoriant KATE MOORE MYERS 1880-1957 TO THE MEMORY OF KATE MOORE MYERS, A MOST GRACIOUS FRIEND WHOSE UNWAVERING INTEREST IN THE CIVIC DEVELOP- MENT, THE CULTURAL GROWTH, AND THE HUMANITARIAN ACTS OF THE COMMUNITY WHICH WAS HER HOME WAS CONSTANTLY MANIFEST, FOR HER KEEN AWARENESS OF MUSIC, ART AND DRAMA AND HER DREAM OF THEIR AVAILABILITY FOR THE ENJOYMENT AND EDIFICATION OF ALL WHO WOULD COME, FOR HER KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROBLEMS OF HER FELLOWS AND HER ANXIETY FOR THEIR WELFARE AT ALL TIMES, FOR HER FRIENDSHIP FOR YOUTH AS THE HOPE OF THE COM- MUNITY AND HER ENCOURAGEMENT OF THEIR EDUCATION AND OPPORTUNITIES, FOR HER LONG ASSOCIATION WITH ASHLAND COLLEGE AS A LIBERAL ARTS INSTITUTION IN THE COMMUNITY AND HER READY ENTHUSIASM FOR THE CAUSE OF HIGHER EDUCATION EVERYWHERE, FOR HER FAITHFUL DEVOTION TO HER GOD AND HER CHURCH AND HER GENUINE CONCERN FOR ITS EFFECTIVE MINISTRY, IN APPRECIATION OF HER LONG YEARS OF SERVICE AS AN ACTIVE TRUSTEE OF ASHLAND COLLEGE, AS A PERSON OF UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE AND VISION IN FACING THE ISSUES RELATIVE TO THE COLLEGE, AND AS A GENEROUS AND CONSISTENT FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTOR OVER THE YEARS, WE NOW HUMBLY AND GRATEFULLY DEDICATE THIS MUSICAL TRIBUTE.

This, the beginning of the big Homecoming week-end, was a very successful venture by the dramatics The play centered around an immature girl, who had married a promising young architect. Janet Klingensmith played this part, with Dave Rothel, co- starring as her husband. Janet is quite attached to her mother, Sarah Emswiler, known as Mrs. Brown. Nancy Stentz, as Berta, the maid, and Keith Evans, as handy man, played interesting roles. Willa Ringler, Frank Goldsmith, and Abby Hossler played the following roles re- spectively: Madame Daruschka, Jerry Seymour, and Julia Naugh- ton. They too had outstanding performances. “Dial M For Murder” This play, presented Dec. 13 and 14 by Footlighters, takes place in England. A husband, played by Dick Crawford, tries to have his wife, Mona Lou Wissinger, murdered so that he can get her money. In self-defense she kills the hired assassin and then goes on trial for his murder. Her American boyfriend, Bill Ralston, investigates the murder, to find that her husband hired the assassin. He tries to convince the police of her innocence, and the husband is finally found guilty. The police were played by Ted Selby, Lyle Whitmeyer, and Phil Scott.

The team’s record of 3-1-1 is not truly indicative of the squad’s ability. The Eagles scored 88 points while holding their league opponents to 44, lowest in the MOL this year. In as much as Ashland only loses 9 men through graduation, and the fact that almost fifty percent of the roster was composed of freshmen, coaches Bob Brownson and Bruce Schmidt have high hopes for the Ashland elevens during the next few years.
