We came to the little town situated among these picturesque foot- hills of ' est Virginia for our college initiation, and bj ' that we do not mean hazing alone, but to take on new customs, to learn and to see things differ- ently. Just as the true initiation in secret circles is preceded by the rough, so is our true college initiation. Our testimony will stand the test, for we speak from bitter exi)eriences. Our days of initiation began, when, on a chilly fall day, the Sophomores and Freshmen came together for their tug of war. We must admit that the pride of those sixty-four wearers of the Gold and Black was somewhat shaken when we were forced to walk through the chilly waters of the Buffalo by the strength of those haughty Sophomores. I )Ut notice, if you please, that we said shaken and not overcome, for the defeat of that day spurred us on to greater efforts, and from that day to this we have held our own. A few weeks following revealed the unusual darings of 1920. Days and nights passed which were filled with visions of burning caps, scissors and fl} - ing hair, ' e were not ashamed to admit it, for wc had the consolation of knowing that we were not without company, for we did unto others as others did unto us. The last few months of our Freshman year were filled with excitement and anxiet} ' , but not of the usual type, for in the spring of that college year Uncle Sam sent out his S. O. S. call. This call to arms rang in the ears of the true, noble manhood of our class and they answered the call, some enlisting , others going to the farms, and still others into the factories, until only a few were left to keep the home fires Inirning. In the fall of 1917 our class returned, but we missed many of the familiar faces. That year we bade farewell to others and still others, but we wouM not ha e had it otherwise. ' e are ])rijud of all of llicm for the sacrifices they made and the service they rendered. Amid the bidding of farewells and the singing of patriotic songs, llu)sc of us who were left behind did not forget that we were here for a purpose. We were not only successful in the classroom, 1nit also in the other activities, such as debating and athletics. At last we reached the third mile stone of our journey. This indeed was a trying year. Words fail to express the aried experiences that were ours. Instead of the familiar signals of the football squad, came the strange tramp, tramp of a passing company of khaki clad soldiers. lUit with the coming of peace, came the removal of these strange sounds. During the winter term the school was restored to its normal conditions and one by one the boys returned to complete their college course. What Junior will forget that night in January when for the first time in his college career he orated from the chapel platform? What a task it was to DE atgaoE •B- SO prepare and give those speeches, but how free we felt after the last one was over. Little did we know at that time, that these would be the last. Like our Freshman year, this too had a very unfortunate ending, but for quite different reasons, one of which was the death of our College President, who had toiled and given his all for the benefit of the college. September found us back again at dear old Bethany. Our work began to take on a more serious tone, for we began to see our stay at Bethany draw- ing to a close. Our last year has been one of continuous joy. Our relations to the members of the Faculty, who have guided our feeble efforts towards obtaining a higher education and who have assisted us in preparing to meet the great battles of life, have been pleasant and profitable. To them we owe many thinks. We leave this last year at our dear Alma Mater with heartfelt regret. But whatever we lose of pleasure or advantage will be but gain to our successors and therefore we bequeath to the class of 1921 our robes of seniorhood and our earnest wishes that old Bethan3- ' s fostering care ma_y bring to them the joys that have been ours.

And sing we, too, from hearts true-blue. Of thy best, noblest son ; The class that ' s strong and brave and true. The class of twenty-one. Soon will have passed the one swift year ' e ' ve yet to spend with thee. And we must say, with a tender tear; Farewell, dear flethany!

D19Z0 DE III Be Dt DE DO DO D£ BILL LATTO From the writhing mass of florid humanity there emerges a comely association of brain (?) and brawn. and baby complexion wreathed in conqueror ' s grin, which ensemble is Old Bill. He janits Oglebay Hall; wears the B for athletic prowess, and the C.O.D. (Doctor of Cows) for agronomic skill. Though he outwardly frowns on the fair sex of Bethany, we know that beneath the austere bark there dwells, indestructible, a spirit of honey-sweet devotion which prompts frequent wander- ings of mind to the temple of .Aphrodite, in Wheeling. RUTH LESLIE South America calls our Ruth to a life of service. Ruth is an unselfish, talented girl and we are proud that she is a member of ' 21. She is a leader in all the school activities and was chosen by the student body as a dele- gate to the Des Moines convention. . ' re you in trouble? Go 10 Rutli. CHARLES NOVEL GWINN Charlie came to Bethany from Marshall College in the fall of 1917. Besides being an excellent student, he has been a pillar of strength on the Var ity eleven for tlie ijast three years. .-Ml in all the class could not afford to be without such a representative. 3l9 o Jl Dt DE Be go :3a iZDD EVA NEVILLE One of the first girls the new girls meet when tlicy come to Bethany is Eva. They meet her early, love her at once, for she is a girl who can laugh and be seriously sympathetic with any one at any time. This year Eva is much interested in the chemistry laboratory department. Biz is one of her majors and in this, as in all her other college activities, her motto is. perseverance always wins. JOSEPH REEVES There is not a great amount of material between Joe ' s head and feet, even though the distance between these parts of his anatomy is more than in the average indi- vidual. However, Joe is able to use his long, slim body with telling effect on the football field. Joe also goes in for debating. He is an amiable fellow and well liked by his fellow students. 3D Df - nn MARY HELPHREY Thou are a jolly las ie, Pretty golden art thy curls. For friends thou lackest not Of either boys or girls. Thou are a student, too. Thy duties thou wilt never shirk. Bethany is glad to have thee. For her. may ' st thou ever work. 3 19E0 3a I DE Be FRED HELPER Who is Fred? Well, listen! President of the V. .M. C. A., member of the Student Council, one of Bethany ' s delegate to the Des Moines Convention, youngest chap- Iain in the A. E. F., the minister of the Warwood Church, and. withal, an interested worker in every movement for the betterment of Bethany. In point of service at Beth- any, Fred is class among the veterans, a stump on the campus. he says, but we hasten to add if every stump were as valuable as he there would be no need for stump pullers. IIEDD DE IHDD ELIZA EDWARDS O ' er the hills and far away. Now don ' t tell her what I am going to say. She ' s a good student in every way, And in biz, why. she always gets an A. ID Dt iiJ DE ERASMUS LINDSEY BEMIS Judging from the postmark on Pete ' s letters we would say that his home is in Ohio, but we are told that his folks live in the Keystone State. His greatest ambi- tion is to be a doctor and we would predict that he will rival our village physician both in profession and in size. However, at present he is engrossed in his favorite study of church history, and will soon turn out the greatest work of his pen. THE LAWS OF ECCLESIASTICAL POLITY. b 9Z0 I DE DE i □I DE DD DD i B 3n DONALD L. BOYD Pee Wee, as vc know him, is small in stature, but this by no means hinders his capabilities. He is a backer of every student organization, which means that it pros- pers. In literary circles he has shown his worth, first as President of Neotrophia. and next as Editor of The Col- legian, in which capacity he has never been excelled. It is Pee Wee ' s aim in life to be associated with news- paper work, and we forsee, in him, a second Horace Greeley. ROBERT SIDNEY TUCK If 3 ' ou see a tall, slender, serious-looking young man, with a wistful look on his face, walking the corridor alone you may know it is Bob. who hails from the Empire State. There is a reason for the wistful look and the alone- ness. However, when Bob conies to himself he is a jovial fellow, well liked by all. He is a ministerial student and we predict a great future for him in his chosen calling. GAYLE JOHNSTON This little girl is so quiet that few of us know her, but she is so obliging that once known she is always liked. She lias become quite popular as an artist, and you ' ll find proof of this statement on many a page of this book. 3i9ao BD o J DE DE DO Be BD MARGARET McCOLLAM Energetic little Margaret comes from the Buckeye State. Her loyalty to Bethany prompts here to take part in all the activities of college life and if necessary she will take the other fellow ' s part, too. One of the boys remarked the other day, She is the busiest girl in Beth- an} and one has only to hark back to some of her ac complisliments to appreciate the truth of that statement. SADIE CROUCH Sadie is the school teacher of our class. Her sweet smile is omnipresent, and fortunate are the students who shall bask in its sunshine. lEDD FRANKLIN PAUL JONES We have with us tonight The Little Jew Boy. who hails from Banning. Pa. He is noted for his flat feet, good looks, graceful movements, and energetic disposi- tion, his favorite expression being, Snap out of it! Jones has no inclination towards biz (except when the Wheeling schools are closed). His future ambition is to make money, and incidentally to be a mining engineer and go home and help his dad dig coal. 3i9ao 3Q Be 3D WALTER BYRON LACOCK This dainty Junior, whose coat and trousers are ever of the same hue (?). strolls listlessly about the corridor and campus with eyes modestly lowered and no girl has ever won a tender smile from his sombre face, nor has he ever been known to go on biz in his three years ' resi- dence here. On account of his strict attendance to duty he has acquired a vast store of information, so if you want to know anything about the Junior Class, Chemistry. Masonry, or. in fact, anything in the world, just go to Little Walter and he will give you his weighty opinion. MARIE HOLLOWAY Marie is another of our Junior lassies who hails from the old Buckeye State, of which fact she is more than proud, holding this as a valuable asset for entrance re- quirement for receiving her degree. Marie is interested in all college activities and is never known to shirk her duty. MILTON A. HANNA Milton, better known to Bethany folk as Salty, claims Millersburg, Ohio, as his home. .-Xs a debater he has no peer. . s an executive he has served the Class of 1921 faithfully both as President and Vice President. .As a member of the 1919 basketball team he showed that he was also something of an athlete. His serious views of life, we believe, will help him greatly in the study and practice of law. al9E0 F=E I 3D T B- HELEN DAY Tilly Day? She ' s true-blue, all wool and a yard wide, etc., etc. Her Bethany history reads like this: En- tered in the fall of ' 17, pursued the regular academic course for two j ' ears; last fall decided to devote herself exclusively to English and Music, all the time frowning on that illusive creature, called man. With the opening of the second term her cold northern heart was touched by the chivalry of tlie South and today when a roll of Bethany ' s stricken ones is read. Lo! Helen ' s name leads all the rest. DAVID ROBERT DAVIES Have } ' ou gathered around and heard the story of Goat ' s life?

This class passed through all its Freshman and Sophomore trials nobly, and stands today with armor on, ready to meet any further trials. Just a word about this splendid class. Walter Lacock, our President, is Assistant Chem ' stry Professor, and also installed a wireless station in the College. Fred Heifer is President of the Y. M. C. A., Chaplain of the . meri- can Legion here, was one of the delegates to the Des Moines convention, and is a member of the student council. Eliza Edwards, Margaret McCollam, Fred Heifer and Walter Lacock teach in the High School. Marie Holloway and Mary Helphrey carry oiY the girls ' athletic honors for the Junior Class. Eva Neville is President of the Y. W. C. A., and Ruth Leslie is Vice Presi- dent. Ruth was also a delegate to the Des Moines convention. Gayle John- ston possesses all our artistic ability. Bill Latto was captain of the ' 19 foot- ball squad. Salty Hanna is chairman of the Pep Committee. Frank Jones is a member of the student council. Robert Tuck is President of . del- phia. Don Boyd is editor of The Collegian. Charles Gwinn is our football star, Joe Reeves our naturalist, and Pete Bemis our physician. Our class would not be complete without someone who could furnish the eats. This honor we ascribe to Sadie Crouch, our Domestic Science student. Would that more could be told you of what the Juniors do in P)ethany, and of our outlook for the future. But enough of that. As Abe Martin says: We ain ' t got many, but we ' ve got a good bit of luck, and, what ' s more, we ' ve got a good bit of loyalty, and it ' s this luck and this loyalty which will carry us triumphantly through our Senior year, and help us build a bigger and better Bethany.

From the higher altitude gained he muses long over the difficulties encountered and is able to follow the land- marks of his trail from the beginning. Like the climber, we, the Class of 1922, have reached one of the high points in our college career, and are now able to look back over some of the •familiar spots, when we, as a class met stern difficulties face to face and tri- umphed. As we look back we see we are very fortunate in having nearly three-fourths of our original band with us. We have put forth every effort to do our part in college activities and have been rewarded by having the sat- isfaction of knowing we have not only upheld our share, but that we have actually become leaders in all branches of these activities. W ' e have proved our mettle in the classroom, we have taken the lead in social functions, and we have become the undisputed leaders in athletics. Our class is represented in nearly all affairs of the school which go to make college life worth while. We have taken care of our proteges, the Freshmen, ' ' in a very competent manner, and have set a fine example before them, and seldom has one of our members shirked a duty. Through our college career we have excelled those who have gone before us, and we leave a shining example for those who must climb the weary trail after us. But we must not dwell too long upon our past victories. We are looking far into the future, and are already searching for the higher peaks we must mount. Now we are setting higher standards, and in the two remaining 3 ' ears of our college life we intend to acquire those at- tributes which will make us THE PERFECT SENIOR. A. R. W., ' 22.

The gloom was perhaps a little disheartening; however, it made no change in the ex- pectant spirits of this promising group. Considering the new conditions caused by the war the membership of the class was remarkable and these students had truly come from the corners of the earth because of their jour- neyings in the service of the government. Promptly the Sophomores began plans to make the Freshmen see their place. pjut alas! to the ruin of their dignity the Freshmen showed them- selves unwilling to fill the assigned place and hearty resistance was given. A practice skirmish was staged in the corridor with no certain victory for either side. No regulated contest was ever held. The Sophomores immedi- ately decided that something must be done to hide the beautv of the members of our class and so, suddenlv one morning, the men appeared in tiny caps of a bright, emerald hue and the girls came with hair in rags. Perhaps this act of the girls upset the men ' s choice, for afterwards the Freshmen boys bizzed no more until the Sophomores decided that long acquaintance made it fitting and proper. It was to the hilarious joy of the upperclassmen that each Freshman made a mad rush for a lady after the Christmas vacation. To prove itself a helpful addition to a College a new class must be able to produce material which is worth while and this the class of ' 23 has done throughout its first year. Good, steady students are not lacking among this number, who truly delight the hearts of their professors. To athletics we have made an indispensable contribution. Thomas, Roark, Walter, Coller and Mason, all from the Freshman Class, were numbered among our football men who earned letters. On the varsity basketball team. Blue, Coller, Allen and Roark proved themselves. A Freshman basketball team, which did good work, was organized with Thomas as its efficient captain. On the Freshman calendar are listed two social functions which proved enjoyable. The opening party was held in the library and proclaimed by all a success ; a novel picnic afforded sport near the close of the year The class has its representative in the Student Council — Frank Helme; and is thus recognized as a working factor in the College life. The members of this class are proud of their brilliant record made this year and it is their aim to always keep their members prominent in college activities and they look forward, eager to render service to P.ethany, which has grown dear in this one year. iisao r - o DC T B d m ral Olnll g Artttiittf s STUDENT COUNCIL Officers President _.J James Garfield Hurst Vice President Frederick ' il am Heifer Secretary Audrey Primrose Springer SENIOR MEMBERS James Garfield Hurst Clarence Neighbors Chapman Walter ' illiam Tilock JUNIOR MEMBERS Franklin Paul Jones Frederick William Heifer SOPHOMORE MEMBERS Ehvood Strobel Audrey Primrose Springer FRESHMAN MEMBER Frank Helme I -— it9aoE -B- atgaoE EID B Antf rirau IG gtoit ' hat does America think of her sold ' ers and what does America care for ex-soldiers? Although America hates war she loves her soldiers and does not forget to whom she owes her life, ' hen a great war break-; upon us and the call comes to the strong manhood to rise and protect our homes, our in- stitutions and our ideals, then the very life blood of the nation responds. Then we idolize the American soldier — nothing is too good for him. But when the war is over, what then? Do we drop back into our serene self-satisfaction and forget? Do we forget what we owe to them — in our mad rush for wealth? Americans do not forget. Lest we forget: Every man who answered his country ' s call stepped out and took his stand between } ' Ou and tlestruction. No matter what part he played in the actual conflict he was ready — he was there. Lest ' e forget, re- member the man who is still over there — never to return. Mothers never forget! The only bonus for that fellow whose life was as dear to him as that of any other, is a poor wreath of flowers, and even maybe that is denied him in an unknown grave. None there to take note of his departure. HE DIED FOR YOU AND iME!. ' hat more has anyone ever done for us. That was the fortune of war. Others were ready to do as duty and fortune called. I salute the man who wears the button. Be he the tottering old man who fought at Gettysburg and A ' icksburg, or the strong young man in the prime of life who went over the top at Belleau ' ood and St. iMihiel, or the man who merely said, flere Am L and obeyed his country ' s call. The American Legion not onlv stands as our- savior in this the greatest of world crises. ])ut these 5,000,C)00 }-oung, strong, hopeful men stand for the best in our American life today and constitute our hopes for the future. The membership of the Legion is at this writing more than one and one- half million. Our college ranks among the first in the per cent of ex-service men who are members, a fact of which we are proud, as we are proud of the Monor Roll that adorns the old chapel hall. And we due re •erence pay to those who went but did not come back — and to the noble mothers who can never forget. The Legion ' s potential power and influence are even greater than things already done. The record of the Legion to date and my acquaintance with the individual soldier leads me to believe that this influence will be for the good. For the good of the nation every soldier should be a member of the Legion. What 5.000,000 men ask for that ' will be given. With the memory of great deeds on the field of honor, or the preparation and being ready for the conflict and the call, with a tie of brotherhood that time will only bind the tighter, with a steadfast purpose to serve our great ideals of democracy and Christianity, we will strive on and the nation will fear no evil. Bolshevism, L A ' . ' ., iiacifism. corrupt politics, strikes, profiteers, slack- ers and all the unwept, unhonored and unhung, will never stand before this mighty army of truest manhood and womanhood that answered the call to the greatest task the pages of history record. A nation so guarded and so loved shall not perish from the earth, so we salute the man who wears the button.

Since the establishment of the Stylus, Bethany ' s first newspaper, in 1833, it has ever been an uphill pull for the publishers. Students and advertisers have always been loyal, but the dif- ficulties encountered in the printing have been in past years almost insur- mountable. During the long and eventful history of The Collegian it has been printed in many forms; from book to newsprint; from hand set to macliine set. Its wa_y has been a difficult one and. although much progress has been made in the past few months, it has been only a beginning. To deal with Bethany iniblication now, is dealing in futures. The Stu- dent lioard of Publications, which was established by the Student Council will find ways and means to overcome many of the difficulties of the past. This board will in the future handle all of the business end of Bethany stu- dent jniblications, and it is thought that The Collegian has passed the critical days of its career and that in the future it will occupy a regular jilace in the long list of undergraduate activities. It is the [lurpose of The Collegian staff ' to make the sheet of real news value to Alumni and students alike and to be a real feature in Bethany life. DE 3i9aoE B ' = MF 3a 31920 E .

Bethany College received her charter in 1840 and opened her classes in 1841, with the founder, Alexander Campbell, as the first President and with the following Faculty: W. K. Pendleton. Andrew F. Ross, Charles Stewart, and Robert Richardson. These men have had many distinguished successors, such as the well-known author, James Lane Allen, who taught Latin, and Charles Louis Loos. Some of t he more prominent Presidents since Mr. Campbell have been W. K. Pendleton, W. H. Woolery, A. McLean (who served for one year, before he gave full time to the work of the For- eign Christian Missionary Society), and T. E. Cramblet. whose administration of eigh- teen years was closed by his death in June, 1919. The influence of P ethany ' s sons and daughters has been felt around the globe, . mong her graduates, she counts preachers, missionaries, business men, educators, and statemen, among them: W. P. Bentley. of China; W. D. Cunningham, of Tokyo, Japan: Hon. Champ Clark, of Missouri; Hon. M. M. Cochran, of Pennsylvania: George Darsie, of Kentucky: C. P. Hedges, of Africa; J. T. Hundley, of Lynchburg College, Virginia: Miss Emma Lyon, of Nanking, China; President E. O. Lovett. of Rice Insti- tute, Texas: Justice J. R. Lamar: President John W. McGarvey, of the College of the Bible, Kentucky; John G. McGavran. of India, and the College of Missions; Mrs. Bes- sie Farrer Madscn, of India; Earl W. Oglebay, of Ohio; the late Senator George T. Oliver, of Pennsylvania: Herbert Smith, of Africa; G. L. Wharton, of India; W. H. Woolery. one of Bethany ' s Presidents, and E. V. Zollars, for some time President of Hiram College, and founder of Phillips University. Recent years have witnessed a notable development in Bethany ' s physical equip- ment and financial status. The administration of Dr. Cramblet. especially, added to the college many important assets, such as a considerable endowment, electric transporta- tion to Wellsburg, electric lights, and several new buildings. The curriculum has been extended and strengthened, and the scope of the work enlarged by the addition of the Agriculture Department, prospected from the very first, but realized only in recent years. This department is well provided for and exerts a large and increasing influence. Its location, environment. e(|uipment. ,-ind support indicate a still greater usefulness in prospect for it. Under the leadership of President Cloyd Goodnight, who was elected last sum- mer and began his work at the opening of the fall term, the morale and enthusiam of the student body and the strength and organization of the Faculty have been wonder- fully improved; and the academic standing of the college is being continually strength- ened and fortified. The new President recognizes that the college owes its existence and continued support to its fidelity to the religious movement which called it into being and its persistence in training and sending forth preachers and missionaries. At the same time, he evidently believes in providing a complete educational environment for this work, so that students in other departments may be able to receive a thorough training in their cho -en fields under the influence of the distinctly religious courses, and with access to them as elective and required courses, while the preachers and mis- sionaries likewise receive their Bible and professional training in a practical, and not a monastic, atmosphere, and with access to such other courses as may be of benefit in preparing them for their life-work. Under such leadership, with the conlidence of the student body itself, and the continued loyal support of her great constituency, old Bethany rejoices today in the most promising future which she has ever faced throughout her history. : H.

The Association is made up of students who are preparing themselves for the Christian ministry. Meetings are held every other Tuesday night in the Memorial Church. These meetings are addressed by men who have had a wide experience in the m ' nistry. During the year such men as W. R. Walker, W. J. Fields and Charles Darsie from outside fields have addressed the Association. Besides men from outside fields President Goodnight and Professors Calhoun and Carpenter have brought inspiring and instructive messages on the practical problems of the ministry. A symposium has been inaugurated in which the Senior members lead in the discussion of vital problems and doctrinal subjects. This feature prom- ises to be of great worth to the entire membership. A friendly co-operation exists between the Association and its sister or- ganization, the Mission Band. Members of the Association are doing a constructive work in pulpits of Ohio. West ' irginia, and Pennsylvania. Students are heard at Paden City, Warwood, Chapel Hill, Bellsville, Glen Easton. and Colliers in ' est Vir- ginia; Columbiana, East Liverpool, Somerset, Toronto, Irondale, Hammonds- ville, Smithfield, Stockport, Unionport, Clarington, Lowell, Coal Run.

Vice Pre.sident and Treasurer, and Louis Perry, Secretary, the Young Men ' s Christian Association of Bethany College has had a most prosperous year. Mr. Heifer ' s rich experience both as chaplain and as Y. AI. C. A. Sec- retary in the United States . rmy enabled him to organize the work, to intro- duce new methods, and to instill a fine spirit into the members. The President of the Association represented the boys at the Student X ' olunteer Convention at Des Moines, Iowa. Upon the return of the dele- gates, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. held a joint meeting. All present were inspired by the reports of the big things that are being contemplated and done by the present organization of Student ' olunteers. A pleasant social hour followed the program. The Social and Program Committee, consisting of Clififord Bucy. Ray- mond Ellis, L. L. ' agoner, and Finis Dunn a ' med to make every man real- ize that each was a part of the college life, and to create a feeling of fellow- ship and goodwill. The Pep Committee, Milton Hanna, William llerbster. Samuel . llen, Horatio Pease, and Karl Lutz caught the vision and conducted the chapel pep ' meeting and other pep ' meetings in such a way as to send our athletic teams off with a confidence that won many a game for the Green and White. One of the most helpful and inspiring features of the year ' s work was the helpful addresses given to the boys. President Goodnight made them feel that he was one with them in every effort for the uplift of their members and for the advancement of their cause. Professors Bourne. ' orkman, Calhoun and Car|)enter spoke in a sjiirit of fellowship that assured the members of their hearty co-operation. Professors Taylor and Balch. former members of the Faculty, spoke in a cordial v2.y that told of their continued interest and sym- pathy in the acti ' ities of the college jjoys. The successful work of the Y. M. C. A. during the past year has created an atmosphere of fellowship, and spirit of pep that will help start ofif the opening days of the coming year with a boost for a bigger and better .Associa- tion and College at Bethanv. L C.

To become a member in the Volunteer Band the student signs the declaration that reads, It is my purpose, if God permit, to become a foreign missionary. During Vhe year of iy- ' 20 a special eiTort has been made by the organ- ization to have the co-operation of the Ministerial Association and the two have studied together missionary topics of interest both to prospective foreign missionaries and local ministers.

B ' MA- DE 3t9aoE ' B ' CARL V. MILLER, Athletic Director With the revision of ljethan ' ' s athletic policy came the necessity of selecting an Athletic Director. The Alumni Committee, after careful consid- eration, chose Carl V. Miller, of Xew Martinsville, W. Va., to fill that impor- tant position. Carl Miller is one of the best known athletes in this section. He is a grad- uate of West Virginia Wesleyan, where he took part in all athletics during his four years in college. He was the quarterback of the famous iMelliodist leam that won the state championship in 1917. It is in baseball and track, however, that the new director is best known. Both in college and semi-professional ball he has made a name throughout this section. He holds the state records in the 220 and 440 dashes and has proved himself a competent coach in these branches of athletics. Director i Iiller assisted Coach Bec kelheimer last fall in coaching the football team and proved himself a competent and efficient man at the task. HERMAN R. BECKELHEIMER, Coach - After the trying days of 1918-19, the Coach of Bethany ' s athletics was doomed to a difficult position. The available football material was good, but there was not enough for more than one good team. Alany diffi- culties were also experienced in obtaining material with wdiich to equip the team. The schedule was the heaviest attempted by a Bethany team in _years and the time and facilities for training were inadequate. Beck, however, whipped the team into shape and met every opponent and made a creditable showing. Coach Beckelheimer, while a student at Morris Harvey, was chosen as all-state tackle. From Morris Harvey he went to Vanderbilt, wdiere he holds the distinction of being the only man to have ever made that team in his Freshman year. He was assistant coach for two years under our former Coach Chambers at Alarshall College. ; 1 iigao t ■ - ca Be DR. WILBUR H. CRAMBLET Doc. was virtually .Athletic Director during the season of 1919. In spite of the numerous other duties which claim his attention he shouldered this added re- sponsibility cheerfully and did his best. Doc has always been in favor of greater athletics in Bethany and has spent a great deal of energy and time in attaining that end. 3a 3a MISS GOLDIA BUTZER For some years wc have felt the need of a coach for girls ' athletics. The new gym and compulsory physical training made this an absolute necessity. 1 hough the girls have no varsity, class games are staged in varioi;.s gym sport; which serve to greatly stimulate the interest of the co-eds in athletics in general as well as contribut- ing to their physical and mental health. Miss Butzer is to be congratulated upon her success in this work. 130 LANE McCAMMON, Football Manager When the matter of electing a manager for the 1919 football team came up. Lane .McCammon, ' 20, appeared as the logical man to hll the bill. A great man duties evolved upon a Bethany student-man- ager that do not usually fall to such a dignitary, . ' fter a year of service with the United States forces overseas Lane had come back to resume his studies. However, without a complaint of the extra work and true to the Bethany spirit, he undertook the job and performed it in a manner creditable both to himself and his .■ lma Mater. OE Be 3:j 3S= 3D J. ROANE LUMPKIN, Baseball Manager Lump is another stiulent-niaivager wlio has proved himself worthy of the honor accorded him. He first won his B in football several years ago and has contributed to the success of all branches of Bethany inter-collegiate athletics in some capacity or another. He has performed hi-i duties well in every capacity and Bethany will -uffer a loss when he goes from our halls. WILLIAM T. LATTO, Football Captain Bill says that rigorous training is the secret of foot- ball success and by his own example leads his teammates. Bill was elected Captain of the 1918 squad and acting captain in 1919. He is known as a clean sportsman, a li.ird player, and a good leader. HARRY F. RANDOLPH, Basketball Captain Randy, our big center, came to us in the fall of 1918 and made a place on the team as center in his Freshman 3 ' ear, His playing was consistent throughout the year and in the spring of ' 19 he was chosen as team leader for the season just passed. He is a splendid ath- lete and clean sportsman and his aggressive work on the Hoor has done much toward carrying his team mates on to victory. 319E0 i ncr. B ' Jofltball Late in the afternoon of September 20, 1919, there gathered together on the gridiron back of the college building, some of the best athletes that Beth- any has had in years. The purpose of these men was to build up a man- power machine that could defeat any college football team in this part of the country. All these men realized the importance and benefits of a strong training program which would condition them for the gruebng contests of t he 3 ' ear. They gave to the game all that they had, and each day showed the results of the previous day ' s work. Although it was impossible to procure equipment, some thirty men were on the field every day in such football clothes as could be found. Bill Latto, captain of the team, stood before his men a daily example of what the clean sportsman should be, and aided much in leading his men to victory. Coach Beckelheimer, by his earne. ' t labors, developed a team of which I our Alma Alater may well be proud. The showing that the team made against I such teams as West Virginia I ' niversity and Washington and Jefferson is a great tribute to his ability. Doc was, as ever, an enthusiastic booster of the football team and assisted with the coaching during practice hours. He deserves much credit for the way in which he has handled the athletics of the college in the cajiacity of graduate manager. Eighteen men won their B this year and of these, si.xtcen will be with us next fall, which assures Bethany of another team of which she may justlv be proud.

The totals show a one hundred and twenty-eight point lead over her opponents. Only three of the men who played varsity ball last year were on 1he squad this year, and Coach Beckelheimer deserves a vast amount of credit for whipping into shane a quintet such as Bethany ' s out of men who had never played together before and ha -ing them turn out real winners. The Bethany squad ran up against some of the stififest opposition in the tri-state district and the score-book shows the splendid way in which they handled themselves. Bethany College is proud of the way in which her representatives of the floor game fought and won, and we look back on this year ' s team as one of the most successful teams Bethany has ever turned out.

The inter-class games, howe cr, ga -e each girl a chance to play on her respective class team, and, as a result, much good play- ing was witnessed by the student body. The Sophomore Class won the inter- class championship by defeating each of the other classes. The Sophomore- Freshman game was the most interesting of the inter-class series, resulting in a ' ictory for the Sophomores. Each team had its tpiota of good players, which helped in making the game interesting to all. Through the excellent playing of her girls. Miss Eutzer has established her reputation as a coach of basketball. Let us hope that the team will show still greater improvement next year, and that it will get a chance to demonstrate its abil ' ty before all.

When the coaches issued the call for baseball in the latters days of March, about thirty men appeared. From these were picked a team of which any col- lege in the country could well be proud. To the tune of this writing they have almost a clean slate, and bid fair to be the West Virginia State cham- pions of 1920. The team is strong in every department. With Bromley of the 1918 scpiad and Randolph of the 1919 squad and Lewis, a Freshman southpaw, on the pitching staff, there were few worries on that score. Even this was not the extent of the staff. Marshall, who played left all season, pitched with remarkable success on the 1918 team. Cook, whose regular position is third, also proved a good man in the box when he pitched the varsity to its hard- earned victory over Concord Normal. Behind the plate there was Roark. who caught a great game all of the time. Reynolds, the hard-hitting little outfielder, was ready to step into this position if needed. Never was a Bethany battery better fortified. On the infield, McConnell played a good game at first and Callahan filled the second base position in an acceptable manner. Cook at third cannot be excelled in college circles. Rezzonico played a finished game at short and left nothing to be desired in that position. However, he was out of the first five games, due to the injury of a finger in practice. Wolfe filled the gap and showed that he was able to take care of anj ' infield position as utility man. The outer gardens were well taken care of by Marshall in left, Reynolds, center, and Weyman, right. The Eastern-Southern trip taken 1.)y the team was one of the longest e ' er attempted by a Bethany squad. On April 28, they left for Pittsburgh, return- ing eleven days later by way of Parkersburg. Two games on this trip were cancelled, due to wet grounds. Of the remaining eight played seven were won. In the game with V. P. I. at Blacksburg, the Bethany jinx got busy and caused Lewis and Roark to run together on an attempt for an infield fly. Lewis was hurt so badly that it was impossible for him to continue the game, which was the only game lost on the trip. 31920 I - ■ G □c B- ®If ® am Marshall Left Field Reynolds Center Field Weyman Right Field Cook Third ]!ase Callahan Second l!ase McConnell First Base Rezzonico Short Stop Wolfe Utility Roark Catcher Bromley Pitcher Randolph Pitcher Lewis Pitcher April 24 at April 29 at May 1 at ] Iay 2 at May 4 at May 5 at May 6 at May 7 at May 8 at May 14 at May 15 at May 18 at May 19 at GAMES PLAYED Bethany U.

So in the latter part of January a men ' s glee club was organized and a little later a chorus for women. Later in the year it was decided that by combining the two an efficient mixed chorus would be the result. This was done in February of the same year and the coml:)ined chorus was called the Choral Society. Clififord Bucy was made President and Elton Schwinger, Secretary. On March 26 a concert was given and a fine program was rendered, num- bers of which included songs liy both glee clubs and also solos Ijy diliferent members of the Choral Club. On October 24 the first meeting of the society for the year of 1919- ' 20 was held in the college chapel. Elton Schwinger was elected President, and Ethel Burdette, Secretary. It was planned early in the year to give a Japanese operetta, The Yoko- hama Alaid, Commencement week, Tuesday, June IS, 1920. Arch Oldaker was elected general manager and he has proved himself an enthusiastic and efficient worker in this responsible position. A concert was given by the glee clubs on April 16, 1920, the proceeds of which went toward the operetta. Members of the men ' s glee club have good voices and are enthusiastic workers. Many things are expected of them during their stay in college. The girls ha -e also been enthusiastic workers and have given generously of their time in preparation for concert singing. Plans are now under way for a road trip, for both Ijoys ' and girls ' clubs, for next year, and with the availalilc material it is assured that they will be successful. It is to be hcjjied that the Sinfonian Choral Society will continue to grow and each year become more successful in making a splendid record for itself and the college. M. M.

The lerrv Mas(|uers. the dramat ' c club of Bethany College, was organ- ized on Oclober 17, 1913, by twenty members of the second year English class, and with the exception of one year, that of ' 18- ' 19, has had a cont ' nuous his tory since that time. The chil) was organ-zed for the purjjose of dramatic study and presentation and for social intercourse. Membership was open to Sophomore, Junior and Senior students, and in cases of marked histrionic ability to Freshmen. The Presidents of the club have been Maude Shultz, Lyrel Teagarden, Malcolm Xurment. Hugh l)w:ght Darsie, Adelaide McCol- 1am, and Lane McCammon, the present incuml)ent. In their six years ' his- tory the Merry Masquers have staged some excellent productions, such as Midsummer Night ' s Dream, Raloh Roister Doister, Everyman, As A ' ou Like It, and several old English Chri ' stmases. Among the bright stars of past Merrv Masquer fame are Jimmy Pearson. Roberta Tener, Ruth lUoom. Ernest Wray. Cw ' ght Darsie. Charbe Moore, ' ' rgin. ' a Netting, Ileleii Ir -in, Simon David. ' an, and many others whose names space will not perm:t of in- dividual ment ' on, but whose wo: k will be recalled by the older generation of dramatic fans. The wor ' .c this year has been particularly successful and a great deal of enthusiasm has h een manifested 1) ' both the members and the students out- side. The club was verj ' wise in its election of President, and he in his ap- pointment of committees, and as a result a number of programs have been given which have reflected much credit on the organization and wdiich have brought into the limelight some young talent which bids fair to rival the bril- liant galaxy who ha e quitted this small school stage for the larger stage of the world. Perhaps the most outstand ng production of the year was the dramatization of Longfellow ' s famous ]ioeni. Iliawalha. which a critic pro- nounced the best entertainment which P.etlianv people have been firivileged to enjo} ' for a long time. ' i ' he I ' .urns |)ri)gram in January and the Wooing Scene from King lienry ' were also well received. However, the big- event of the entire year will be the Conimencement Play, The Tempest, which, following the custom of other Comn-iencement pla ■s of Bethany, will be staged on the campus on the evening of June 14. This brief re -iew of the club ' s history and activities would not be com- plete without the mention of its greatest [promoter, Mrs. Anna R. Bourne, who has given so much of her time and thought to its interests. To her above all others are due the past achie -ements and the bright future of the Merry Masquers. c- i t920E 5=S3H!

In the years of Old Bethany ' s history, there has been a band of loyal workers who have toiled ernestly together to upbuild the literary standards of our Alma Mater and to prepare the young people who are going forth year by year from this institution into the world ' s activities to be better able to meet the battle of life. Th ' s society was first organized to meet the demands of the class of young people who were being educated for the ministry. It was not long, however, until the old ])olicy of a sermonette society was put aside, and the members adopted a broader policy that included a wider sphere and began to touch the life of all the students of the school and to assist them ■ ' n their work. The great aim of the Adelphians from that day to th- ' s has been to take the young, bashful, frightened, and green Freshman into I heir midst and there, by means of a rigid course of training, to take away the rough edges, develop his talents, and gi -e him a greater confidence in him- self until this diamond in the rough is developed into the sparkling gem able to meet and to- lead his fellowmen and to be of service in this great world of activity. It was on the Adelphian platform that the Freshman made his oratorical debut, the Sophomore declaimed his high-sounding and ornate phrases, the Junior painted his picture of hope, and the Senior pointed his hearers toward the serious and grave responsibilities of life. Thus it has been a real training school for all college students along literary lines; not a social organization! although Adelph ' a has her social times), or a figurehead o f the institution, but a real, live, active organization, fulfilling its mission in the program of a school with the lofty ideals of Old Bethany. In carrying out her plans and ambitious aims Adelphia has never failed, but is ever going onward and upward to better things, while holding her position of The Honor Society of the school. Words of praise are useless as all Adelphians wish that they be known not because of their much speaking, but by their works. Therefore, to know Adelphia, look at her glorious and successful past and judge her bv the fruits of her efforts. Emerson said, Low aim, and not fail- ure, is crime. To live with a high aim and to do all in your power to reach that aim is to live indeed and to be a success in the work undertaken. This is the spirit of Adelphia. R. T. DE alQaOE 1.

But, as a wanderer returns from his wanderings to the joy and contentment of h!s youth, the splendid traditions and sincere purposes of the long-ago welcome us with guiding arms of consolation and advice. It is in this spirit that we refer to the exalted history of our society. The Neotrophian Literary Society was founded on November 5. 1841, the first year of our college. For a number of years it enjoyed a jjrestige and influence as one of the leading literary organizations of the section. A library of some twelve hundred volumes was collected bv the society, making it a center in the college for literary culture and development. During these early years Ntotrouhia enjoyed helpful collaboration with the American Literary Institute. Misfortune came to test the vigor of the societ} ' in 1859, when all the property, including its fine library, was destroyed by fire. This was re- peated in 1879. Numerous as the obstacles were, Neotrophia climbed on toward her ideals in loyalty to truth, experiencing hardships with the college and enjoying with her the eras of prosperity, always endeavoring to furnish for the student a field where he might try to measure the growth of his abili- ties being cultivated in the classrooms. In th ' s service Neotrophia has con- tributed men of leadership to the political, rel ' gious, and commercial realms of our own great country and of foreign lands. In 1918, after a brief rest, Neotrophia was invaded by the co-educational spirit and opened her membership to the ladies of the college. This move was welcomed by the young ladies, since they were very glad to be honored by membership in the historic society, and they have excellently demonstrated their ability and enthusiasm in holding up Neotrophia ' s standards. May the spirit of our grand old traditions and the enthusiasm of former years burn in the heart of each Neotrophian, and in unison of spirit may we sing: Onward, upward, ever marching, Toward the Truth we richly prize. ' Light descends, ' but genius soars Where her constellations burn, And the stars of Neotrophia ' s glory rise. 31920 i - Z I G DC (II B ' OFFICERS President ' J.

Since the majority of students from both departments were not connected with any social organization, the idea was conceived of uniting the two departments into one society, thus affording an opportunity for intellectual as well as social development. Late in the fall, accordingly, a joint meeting of the two departments was called and Professor Workman presented the plans for such an organization. The purpose of this organization was not only to provide for social inter- course, but to afford a place where we could meet together and study the problems pertaining to rural and home life, and discuss the current topics of interest to Agricultural and Home Economics students. The plan was enthusiastically accepted and a committee was appointed to draw up a con- stitution. When the constitution was completed, a meeting was called and we pro- ceeded with the election of ofificers. Mr. Hanson was chosen to be our leader. Under his leadership the organization has grown and prospered. Monthly meetings have been held, in which wer discussed topics of interest to boys and girls alike. We are sure that we express the sentiment of the whole society when we say that this year has been one of great interest and inspiration to all who have attended the meetings of our little group. And the hope of those who go out this year, is that the next year may be even more prosperous than the last. B. P. . B ' ' ' ■ imiriijiiL .

DE B ' Ms K ounJi (gutltg Verdict Rendered By Special Session of Bethany Circuit Court At a special meeting of the Bethany Circuit Court, held on the night of May 3, 1920, R, T. Wells, a Freshman, was found guilty of violating the laws and ancient customs of Bethany College. Judge Cooper, before whom the case was tried, sentenced the prisoner to be put off bizz for seven days and to wear a Freshman cap for fourteen days. Wells, who entered Bethany on March 25, hails from Oxford, Indiana. Since arriving h:s attitude has been rather Fresh, ' even for a Freshman. Finally his violations of rules and customs became so flagrant that he was taken into custody by Sheriff Buck Dunn and Deputy Seely. He was taken to the court room in the basement of the library, where the entire male popu- lation had assembled to witness the trial. The prisoner was tried on the fol- lowing indictments: R. T. ells is hereby cliarged on th ' s third day of May, nineteen hun- dred and twent} ' , with the following high crimes and misdemeanors: ( 1 ) Said Vells has violated the law defining the limits for bizz walks in the following instances, towit: (a) On Aprd the 10th the aforesaid Wells and his accomplice. Miss X — , were seen strolling far beyond the westerly limit, namely Point Breeze. (1)) Again on April 17th the same offense was with criminal intent and malice again perpetrated. (c) Furthermore that on April 24th the aforesaid Wells and the afore- said accomplice, Miss X — , in continued defiance of the law, did meander far beyond the legal bounds, and did visit the Lone Grave and Campl)ell Ceme- tery. (2) Said Wells has been entirely too vociferous for a sod-buster from the wilds of Indiana. The strident tones of his harsh voice ha e ever been an outstanding feature on the campus. (3) Said Wells, with unsurpassed arrogance and unparalleled vanity, has continually mouthed forth his pretended excellence as an athlete, which claim has no foundation in fact. (4) The demeanor of the said Wells on the gy m floor is ungentlemanly and unsportsmanlike, being characterized by lack of proper respect for upper- classmen and bv a lack of chivalrous treatment to the fairer sex during con- tests on the floor. (5) Said Wells is conceited in such matters as musical ability, social position and personal appearance. {(■ } Said W ells conducts himself in the dining liall in a maimer unl:ie- coming a gentleman and a student of Bethany College. The case was ably handled by the prosecuting attorneys, Sweeney and Mdey. An effective defence was made by Attorneys Hughes and Anderson. The final appeal of Attorney Anderson to the jury for leniency on account of the extreme youthfulness of the defendant was very touching. However, the evidence was so clear that the jury rendered a verdict of guilty after only one minute of deliberation. ' itnesses for the prosecution were: McCormick, Mason, and Donald- son. ' itnesses for the defense were: Hyatt, Blue, and Marshall. DE ■iX DAYS OF YORE ' THE WELLSBURG, BETHANY WASHINGTON RAILWAYS CO. NOTICE 1.
