E THE 107th COMMENCEMENT OF BELOIT COLLEGE The Commencement Exercises and The Conferring of Degrees upon The Class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-seven THE COLLEGE CAMPUS, BELOIT, WISCONSIN SUNDAY, JUNE THE NINTH A.D. NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN 3:30 P.M. AIMS' Beloit College seeks to make her graduates at home in the world of thought. Through the study of the history of ideas and by quicken- ing the interest in creative thinking, she equips young men and women to solve more completely the ever changing problems of everyday life. Beloit College trains her students in accurate survey and inquiry. She would have them be scientific in the sense that they learn to understand and to face squarely the facts of the world, and respect intellectually all truth in so far as we now know it. Beloit College aims to inspire her graduates with noble ideals. In the sense that religion is deeply involved in the organization of life into the whole and that many truths include not only factual content but great hopes and faith, Beloit College would have her students know religion. TENETS In an attempt to phrase the meaning and motives of Beloit College, and to make articulate the faith and purposes of her early founders to which we of today subscribe, the Board of Trustees and the Faculty of the College have authorized the following Declaration of Principles: Tenet I: A Christianity uncontrolled by nationalism or sec- tarianism. Tenet II: An integrity of purpose and performance steadfast against expediency or exploitation. Tenet III: A tolerance of spirit that will perpetuate freedom whether of work, worship, speech, press, or academic research. Tenet IV: A government by consent of the governed, constitu- tionally expressed.

Kilburw . . . . William B. Old: 178 Now the rose has come again, my heart sings a glad refrain While the valley lilies bloom, and the violets shed perfume; As young hearts now trembling stand, enthring life,s new promised land, Full of hope against their foes, I deck them with Junehs fragrant rose. Second Stanza tLeroy J. TschetteU When the sky is overcast, and with toil and care have passed Years of wandering, years of pain, as you come to me again, Reapers in broad harvest fields, soldiers bearing dinted shields, Sailors tossed on tempest wave, I crown With olive wreath the brave. Third Stanza tPaula M. Every When your work of life is done, under eastern, western sun, When the rose has lost perfume, and the almond tree shall bloom, Gaining joys more honored far, than the victories of war Palms at last for you I see, palms of peace and victory. Chorus: tThe congregation, :eatch To her children dear, Beloit imparts Thoughts in wreaths, the rose for brave young hearts, Olive leaf for manhoodhs victory, Palms of peace for crowned eternity. -William F.

The College was established by a group of New England Congregationalists and Presbyterians, but has always been non-denominational in character, and a clause in its charter guarantees that it will remain so Beloit College seeks to make her graduates at home in the world of thought. Beloit College trains her students in accurate survey and inquiry. Beloit College aims to inspire her graduates with noble ideals The cornerstone of Middle College, which still serves as an administration building, was laid June 24,1847.

To succeed in their endeavor, they have provided a special section in the spectator's stands which is reserved explicitly for members of this group. In addition, the club sponsors special trips to nearby towns during the football and basketball seasons. This year's officers were Bob Wetzel, president; Bill Domm, vice-president; Ann Wetzel, secretary; and Connie Ziemer, treasurer. 84 pre-med club The PrerMed Club is composed of students who are interested in the general field of medicine. Its purpose is to stimulate interest and to acquaint the members with the medical profession and allied areas. This goal is accomplished through movies, student lectures, viSIting speakers, and trips to nearby medical schools.

The activities of this years group were directed by John Freeman, president, and John Polsedge, secretary-treosurer. Mr. Bradford ot the Physics Department serves the organiza- tion as faculty advisor. satyre Once again Beloit has on olI-compus variety magazine. The former campus humor magazine was discontinued in 1949 when it appeared under the name of The Goldfish. Be- ginning last year with four issues, Sotyre has established itself on a status equal to that of the older and more illustrious campus publications. With the idea of providing the student body with a diversified magazine, Dick Gre- Iecki and Joan Byrne have edited the quarterly with an eye on versatility. Featuring poetry, short stories, cartoons, essays, and photographic work, Sotyre has developed so greatly that its subscriptions have been placed within the student fees similar to the Round Table and Gold. During the past year, Bob Myers has served as business manager and guided the publication through difficult financial problems. First row: Gates, Glover, Grelecki, Schwartz, Myers.

This can be said of the house at 726 Church Street. Within its four walls, Pratt House has seen ice skating in the living room, CI flood from some broken water lines, and o constant cof- fee pot. The girls will never forget their Mouer Reunion, the martyr cross, and 'lMutt's marine corps application. These were good times and will always linger with the coeds who lived there. Even the French House pauses for a coffee break. french house Pledged to improve their knowledge of the French language, the residents of French House look down upon anyone who speaks English in their dorm. As this is the only significant difference, La Maison Francoise has, like all the other dorms, created many lasting impressions Upon the individuals who lived there. Maison Francoise is located at 627 Church Street. Mary Ellen and Donna study their French in a Parisian atmos- phere. They will always remember the mysterious locked door in the basement, Monsieur Le Oui-Oui who breaks wash- ing machines and leaves dirty dishes, and the unique but charming gorret. Regardless of the amount of French that was learned, the girls will always recall the year that they spent with Miss Phillips at 627 Church Street.

All the work done by the members is confidential, and in large part individual, but the aim of the organization is to be constructive to the school as a whole. Few know who the members are each year until the Gold comes out, and no one knows exactly what they have done during the year to gain entry into the organization. The society is one of secret origin. It has derived its name from the Turtle Mound on Observatory Hill. The mystery of its story lends the air of secrecy that the society commands. President Dr. Upton, ond Vice-President Wood ore honorary members. They act in an advisory capacity and are ovlso advised by the society. The organization was founded on the Beloit campus in 1901.

This honorary, by constitution limited to the twenty Senior women with the most outstanding qualifications, cooperates with Delta Omicron Pi in attempting to create an attitude or way of life in which everyone can be happy. Delta Omicron Pi is composed of Senior men chosen specifically for this purpose by the women of Rho Omega MUJ A selt-perpetuoting group, Rho Omegc'Mu takes a very active part in campus affairs. Aside from a contribution to The Campus Chest Carnival, the members like to keep their deeds as secret and inconspicuous as possible.

They are picked and se- lected for this distinction by the members of Rho Omega MU, the distinct Senior Women's group. The purpose of this honorary group is to further good inter-traternity-sorority relations and feelings, both on the Beloit campus and in and around the surrounding area. Delta Omicron Pi has no leadership. That is to say the group has no officers. Any member may call a general meeting of the group at any time. However, Delta Omicron Pi accomplishes more when it holds its meetings in coniunction with Rho Omega Mui It might be noted that while the membership of Rho Omega MU is limited to twenty women, they always elect more than twenty men to Delta Omicron Pi. 123 coaching staff Beloit's competition in nine intercollegiate sports is guided by a coach- ing staff of five men. Former athletic director, Dolph Stanley, who has brought a great deal of national prestige to the campus with his winning basketball teams, completed his twelfth year as coach of the Beloit cogers Carl T. Nelson, who doubles as wrestling coach, piloted another fine Betoit team to a successful season HPill, as he is better known, came to Beloit after having coached the Beloit high school gridders. The coach of both cross-country and track is Herb Hodges. Cooch Hodges, who joined the coaching staff in 1946, has built the running teams into mid-western powers. In addition to his coaching, Hodges is the coordi- notor of the annual Beloit Reloys, a favorite attraction for the top small col- lege trockmen in the midwest. Bob Nicholls, who has been of Beloit since 1952, is the director of the swimming and tennis teams. A most versatile man, he also serves as back- field coach of the football team.

Losing only to Monkato State and Stevens Point, the Buc squad won their remaining games despite iniuries and bad breaks. A fine backfield of Dick Endsley, Dick Shonohon, Pete Somuels, Phil Thompson, Joe Muscori, Lynn Redding, and Ken Monson gave the Beloiters the depth and speed necessary for that vital scoring punch. Preceeding the backfield was a big, strong line led by Captain Ed Hoerr. Other moin- stoys adding their bulk and brown, were Mike Cosentino, Nick Karris, Bill Mack, Don Puter- baugh, Al Stone, and Gary Kuhnen. Beloit's passing attack was endowed with ends Jim Langley, Ed Jakob, Perry Newport, Steve Niemon, and the accurate toe of John Perles. Though losing only five regulars, next year's team will have to work hard to attain the spirit and fight which typified the team of l956. don puferbough dick endsley perry newsporf ioe muscori BELOIT OPPONENT 13 Lake Forest 6 7 Mankato Sf. 27 27 Indiana Cent. 6 3 DePauw 0 14 Albion 7 I4 Stephens Point 17 20 Milwaukee St. 0 14 Macalester 6 The HFour Horsemen loosen up Bucs pursue enemy on an end sweep The fans rise to their feet as the Beloit squad rushes onto the field.

The 1956-57 school year is history. But the memories of all the hustle and bustle remain in one bound pock- oge, the 1957 GOLD. Ten months of toil, several gallons of coffee, and 0 wonderful stuff, again, produced another top yearbook for every Beloit student to keep as his own memoirs. Starting with the top brass, there are many people to whom I owe a hearty thonks-Mr Rummler and the Myers Yearbook Co., who did a marvelous job for us, seeing this is the first time the GOLD staff has worked with them;Mr. Mason ot the Public Relations Department, who proved invaluable in providing me with many a pic: ture; Robert Sharpe of Sharpe Studios for his undying patience and beautiful work on the Queens and the sen- ior section; and Mr. Art Johnson, school business advisor, who assisted me wisely throughout my negotiations. An oddity tor Beloit College publications is to have a financially successful publication. Many thanks to Bob Horsch, business manager, Lynn Redding, advertising manager, and the rest of the business staff for putting Lee 130100910 the 1957 GOLD in the block. Editor of the 1957 GOLD The mainstays of this years staff were Barb Rokow and Jon Worehom, design and layout editors, Head Photographer Lloyd Morgan with Dick Berg and Bob Stone assisting, Non Kuplic on the senior section, Jim Frodin and Sue Peterson setting up picture appointments, Jim Evans, copy editor, and Wayne HWhitey Hultburg, who designed the GOLD'S beautiful cover. Also deserving a special thanks are Bill Strong and Roy Romsing for contributing photography work via Dove Mason's office. Rounding out the very co-operotive staff were Harry Worth, Bob Cullum, Bev Ostrico, Joy Crondoll, John Heuer, Sandy Mock, Doug Williams, Burdette Joeston, Ruth Ann Kornish, Lenore McCord, Rich Dodge, Steve George, Norm Lopez, and Andy Koehler, my private secretory. It has been said that HExperience is the best teocherfl and rightly so. Many thanks to Dick Diehl and Nancy Boutelle for their elderly advice. A few people had to put up with my annoyances during the year. I hope all the gals in the Middle College offices forgive me for my bothersome daily visits, and maybe Nancy and Phil lot the ROUND TABLE will forget all the copy paper I Hborrowed from them. lHoh, I really conserved on the budgetl Last spring, the Publications Board stuck out their necks when they selected me, o sopho- more-elect, to edit the 1957 yearbook. Their confidence in me has served as o morole-booster and unerring guiding light. As for the Beloit College Family, you are the very substance, the invigorating life, of this book. Your warmth, appeal, sparkle, and color form the HSpirit of Beloit. From the bottom of my heart, I thank every one of you. J? .v ., .. .sua: r: . anl'xhdnnx a?
