£«..,■  F ' •-• ' ■- - - S i ji r K Sr; - ; : w % £$ feJl| To Andrew Leitch, As a meagre but heartfelt trib- ute to bis zealous scholarship, his earnest and constant efforts in behalf of his students, his exemplary moral bearing and ennobling Christian character, this book is respectfully dedicated. To recount and reflect briefly, simply, and interestingly Beth- any ' s life for the past year has been the earnest intent of the staff. Joy and bitterness have mingled to close another chap- ter of incidents in our lives. Jn those after years, when recollec- tion (bless ' d jovial spirit ' ) shall turn his face to none save the gladsome scene, may these pages. kind reader, conjure up soft remembrances of the delectable associations and imperishable ties which shall serve to bring us oft into rapport with the spirit of the college among the hills.

Those of us who are privileged ?«|g fpy| to be about the campus each day take a special pride in the appearance and con- tents of the college annual. In these days when a bigger and better Bethany is being planned — better in that it is to be equipped for more thorough service to those who come this way for their college course — it affords me real pleasure to extend greetings to all interested alumni, students, and friends. The norm of a good strong college has been changing: hence, Bethany is face to face with the need for added and adequate living quarters that will accommodate one hundred and fifty additional stu- dents. This demand explains our effort to secure more dormitory space which we hope to make mod- ern, comfortable, and attractive. Brick and mortar cannot produce a college; they simply house one. Certain recognized equip- ment must be at the disposal of a keen, well-trained faculty and a thoroughly interested student body. Personnel will ever remain the outstanding equation in a college of liberal arts. Men and women, there- fore, both in faculty and student body, must remain our first concern. It is believed that this issue of the BETHANIAN indicates one feature of the merit of Bethany College. — Cloyd Goodnight. Cloyd Goodnight, A.M., D.D.

It means teaching them to behave as they do not behave. It is not teaching the youth the shape of lcttcts and the trick of numbers, and then leaving them to turn their arithmetic to roguery, and their literature to lust. It means, on the contrary, training them into the perfect exercise and kingly continence of their bodies and souls. It is a painful, continual, and difficult work, to be done by kindness, by watching, by warn- ing, by precept, by praise, but above all — by example. — John Ruskin. i (ZT-diSPC ' l. i ru -J R 1 m QlntHafc?

Pa. W. S. WILKINS . . . Wcllsburg. W. Va. God wills it. Come! — This, the cry of the Crusaders of old, rings out to the friends of Bethany College to-day. A Crusade for $1,000,000 is now under way. Its success will make possible the hope of years. All this is a part of a gigantic program for the building of a greater and finer Bethany. The crusade grew out of a direct and urgent need for new dormitory facilities here, and when the matter was presented to the Board of Trustees in a special meeting last August 11, it was decided that the program should be undertaken and the goal set at $1,000,000. Expressing their confidence in President Goodnight, the Board of Trustees selected him to head the Crusade Executive Committee. The work of the Crusade was turned over to the Department of Promotion of the Board of Education of the Disciples of Christ. Dr. H. H. Harmon, who heads that department, was named director of the Crusade. He selected as his associate director, S. R. Bradley of Lincoln, Nebraska. A staff of Crusaders has been employed and for the past several months the machinery has been in motion. (Continued on the next page) ( B? ,(3 3§§ mm Bethany College Crusade (Continued from previous page) It is the plan of the Crusaders to present this great program for Bethany to all of the churches of the Disciples of Christ in our area of West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and southwestern Ohio. It is also planned to present the program to the alumni and former students of the College as they can be gathered together in strategic geographical centers. All of this work is already well under way. The actual Crusade Headquarters is in Pittsburgh, where the College has opened an office on the sixth floor of the First National Bank Build- ing. The statistics, records, and reports are all filed there. At Bethany the main task is to supply information and material to the Pittsburgh office and to the Crusade staff. President Goodnight is giving unceasingly and tirelessly of his time and energy to this important task. His presence at the various places where set-up meetings arc held is almost essential to their success. He carries the message of Bethany direct and is thus able to command the confidence and respect of those who hear him. When the Crusade moves into a new section, the first step is to have a fellowship dinner. Here the people join in singing Bethany songs. The purpose and the program for Bethany is presented. If possible the Crusade Booster Girls are present to sing. This type of gathering is intended to atmosphere those present and to prepare them for a personal visit of one of the Crusaders which follows in a few days after. As soon as the work in one section has been completed, the Crusade team moves on. The sedulous efforts of the directors and workers assure ultimate success to their endeavors and a glowing future for Bethany. THE MEN ' S DORMITORY ■• sxs s sx s The Bethany College Crusade On the Campus Pledge total from students and faculty $31,000 The unexpected success attending the drive for student and faculty pledges is traceable to the skillfully devised program of propaganda preceding the receiving of pledges. This campaign, conducted under the direction of the Student Board of Governors, succeeded, as is obvious, in generating a full measure of enthusiasm for the crusade.

Members JOSEPH LA SlTIS President WARD STALNAKER Editor of Belhanian DWIGHT STEVENSON Business Manager PAUL WHITE Editor of Collegian OTTIE COCHRAN Advertising Manager MARK RE1GARD Circulation Manager hAcuLTY Advisors Mr. Hickman Mr. Woolerv Mrs. Bourne The 1928 Bethanian Volume XXVII HE Bethanian of 1928 is presented by the staff with a sense of its incompleteness. We now keenly realize that so elusive is the spirit of college life that it can never be mirrored satisfactorily within the pages of a mere book. It has, however, been the aim of the staff to suggest as accurately as our finances, time, and powers have allowed, the main currents of Bethany ' s multi-varied activity. We have thought pictures the most effective of all media in realizing our aim. and thus have endeavored to gather for the book a larger collection of snaps and photos than has ever appeared in a Bethany annual. We shall not enumerate our handicaps, financial and other- wise, in an attempt to rationalize our myriad mistakes. These errors, unfortunately, cannot be retrieved and you, kind reader, must needs suffer them. Though the experience has seemed painful many times, the editors now feel that their work has been a great education. Too. the nature of our position has drawn us into close contact with the entire student body and has led us to a broadening of our asso- ciations not likely to have been gained otherwise. The expression of deep appreciation will be the final word from the editors. Beside the fine aid from the regular department edi- tors, invaluable aid has been lent by Guy Moore who spent great time and painstaking care in his mounting of our snaps and photos: by Ned Bryan who likewise expended this time and prac- tical powers freely. The closing token of appreciation we pay to that perfect gentleman, Mr. Danford, who throughout the period of compilation gave willing assistance so constantly that truly it seems he has been the sine qua non of this year ' s book.

Its program was such that it must surely have recalled to our alumni fond and pleasant reminiscences. The whole effect was enhanced by the two special features of the program: the staging of sorority tablcux posed in response to fraternity screnaders. and the introduction of the Bell Song whose rendering was so beautifully aided by the projected slide of our beloved tower.

During last Commencement week it presented Twelfth Night and this fall the popular and delightful comedy. The Patsy. This spring it intends to give Tarkington ' s The Trysting Place as well as a commencement play. The club has been most generous with donations to worth-while college projects. It gained the honor of being the first organization to make a contribution to the Crusade fund. It further evinced its liberality by making a gift of one hundred and fifty dollars to aid in the purchase of tracks for the new cyclorama which so effectively enhances our stage possibilities.

S. Bennett, this was the most successful season in the debating history of Bethany. The home debates were much better attended than those at any of the other schools; commendation is due the college for its unpre- cedented support of these forensic programs. The question for boys ' debates was chosen by the newly formed Tri-State Debating Conference, consisting of Geneva, Waynesburg, Grove City. Westminster, and Bethany colleges: Resolved that the United States government, except after formal declaration of war. should refrain from the use of armed force for the protection of the foreign investments of our nationals. The schedule consisted of seven debates as follows: March 1 Geneva, dual March 8 Waynesburg, dual March 12 Western Reserve March 15 Westminster, dual Following is the roster of those active throughout the season: Affirmative Negative John Berry Dwight Stevenson Michael Kasarda Ennis Bailey Clinton Davidson How ard Horner Virgil Elliott Ward Stalnaker Clarence Schnars Elton Behm Henry Shallenberger The team loses Berry, Elliott, and Stalnaker by graduation, but an adequate number of able men remain to carry on. Those who have debated this year are sensible of the value of their training and practice, and feel themselves indebted to the college and students for this invaluable privilege. nty-four cr Qjv .■■.jf ssttji I a Girls ' Debating The long attempts to inaugurate debating for girls in Bethany College culminated in the formation this year of two teams whose work, in view of their lack of previous experience, has elicited the enthusiastic commendation of all who have heard them. The question debated is one that has confronted students of government as a prob- lem for years, namely. Resolved: that the direct primary method of nominating state and national officers should be abolished. In the dual debates with Geneva. Waynesburg, and Westminster Colleges, our girls ' teams were unusually successful, winning all but two of their contests. At home, our student body evinced its hearty appreciation by its splendid turn-outs for all debates. The fine showing made by this year ' s teams points to the success and permanency of girls ' debating in Bethany.

S. alone yet survives the attacks of the virus which put the several flourishing literary societies of Bethany ' s history out of existence. The society is an elective organi- zation purposing to be a medium for the developing and the expression of literary, musical, annd forensic ability, especially for freshmen and sophomores. Close adherence to its motto, Neglect not the gift that is within thee, would signify the worth of Adelphian ' s intent.

On Monday evening, March 26, the presidential p os- sibilities were assayed and angles of the campaign from a personal standpoint were viewed. A straw vote by the members present resulted in an overwhelming preference for Secretary Herbert Hoover. Issues of the coming political campaign formed the chief subjects until the end of the college year. The problem of farm relief was taken first, on April 16. Unusual interest was dis- covered on the part of students in the economic basis of politics, and attendance at the club ' s meeting mounted with each session. To a great degree the problems selected for discussion are the same as those of the World ' s Youth Conventions and are met in the same free, democratic style of open forum examination. On Wednesday. March 28, the club placed before the Student Board of Governors the proposition of taking a vote of the entire student body on presidential favorites. This suggestion was adopted and a poll was made, with preliminary short talks on candidates, during the chapel hour. The Current History Club meetings are serving not only to introduce subjects of practical importance in the affairs of nations, but as well, to draw out student opinion. There is a prevailing tendency on the part of the average undergraduate to depreciate his information, to hesitate in advancing his views, and the oppor- tunity to overcome this backwardness is made available in these informal discussions. Knowledge gained in courses in the class room is given an application, and views which otherwise might remain bottled up are expressed and defended. Ministerial Association w.

One of the members attended the Student Volunteer Quadrennial Convention at Detroit in December, and two attended the Student Volunteer Conference at Geneva the week end of March 2. at which time Ann Barnett was elected Vice-President of the Student Volun- teer Union of West Virginia and Western Pennsylvania.

NUSS Coach. Director of Athletics 4 ' R M — Ruggedness A quality college must have every department in such a condition that no excuses are offered for the lack of equipment or adequate instruction. With this in mind we arc working to reconstruct the department of physical education at Bethany. To train both athlete and student by physical educa- tion is only one of the important duties of our insti- tution. The lessons there learned by the athlete and student arc. we believe, just as important and needful as the other knowledge imparted by the various heat ' s of our college. A strong body gives the individual an additional lever for his present and future work. For this reason, wc aim to make our exercises and care of the body habit forming, that they may be used in after years by those who take our courses. We hope to teach the players and student body to place the game and sportsman- ship above the win at any price attitude. The win and lost column means nothing unless you deserve to win. The Athletic Department should instill in our teams and student body that never say die spirit; should crea te a more enthusiastic atmosphere which makes participants in the games give their utmost; should develop an Esprit dc corps, if you please, to be used in every phase of our academic, social, and civic endeavors. In fact, we want each player, each team to ' play to win not pray to win . Wc must also learn to live if wc expect to learn to play. We will fed we have accomplished very little unless we leave those with whom we come in contact better than wc found them. After all wc arc only in a great inventive process of making the future American men and women better physically, morally, and religiously. Fur wan L. Nuss, Coach and Director of Athletics.

Basketball Tri-State Honorary Athletic Board Every year, to one senior of each college represented in the Tri-State Conference, a gold medal is presented as a token of superior achievement both in the class room and on the athletic field. Upon Alfred Carey, of last year ' s graduating class, was bestowed this enviable honor for 1927. Alf has thus become third in the lineage of the Honorary Athletes of Bethany College: Hubbard Sboemakc and Ronald Crawford arc his noble predecessors. Alf left, upon his departure from his alma mater, an imperishable record as an outstanding all-round athlete and as an excellent student. In all three major sports: football, basket- ball, and baseball he earned the Bison B . His wonderful ability as captain and end of the football team elicited, prob- ably, the greatest admiration, but the same athletic prowess was evinced in his performances as running guard and as second baseman. In track, too. he displayed unusual talent, particu- larly in the pole vault, broad jump, and high jump. Besides touching success in matters matrimonial. Alf is progressing in great shape as coach of high school athletics in glorious Florida. Alfred Carey. ' 27 COACH NUSS: An Appreciation The Bethunian staff has wishes to express an appreciation of the influence and accomplishments of Coach Nuss during his three years ' incumbency as the leader of athletics in Bethany. Finding his department in a rather serious degree of disorganization, he has since placed it upon a stable basis, and has successfully revived and maintained an interest in the sports which was once dying. During the present year, he has served as athletic director as well as coach ol all sports. In spite of the illimitable duties which have devolved upon him in the discharge of his capacities, he has proved his efficiency by managing finances in such a way that there has already been made possible a considerable reduction in the troublesome ath- letic debt. As a builder of Bethany teams, he has stressed clean play and Bethany spirit as more essential than the winning of victories. And while the victories have not been scarce, these finer qualities have not been lacking even in defeat. Women ' s Athletic Association The Women ' s Athletic Association has found its field of activities wide and varied. Last spring three rummage sales were held at McKinlcyville and a Mardi Gras at Bethany; from the proceeds a sum of one hundred dollars was donated to spring sports. A tennis tournament for the girls sponsored by the club was enthusiastically participated in by the lovers of this game. An interclass basketball tournament likewise found support in this association. Aside from these more definite accomplishments it is felt that this organization does promote among Bethany students a real interest in the all-round girl . Though limited to a membership of fifteen, all the co-eds are enthusiastic about its work and welcome whatever sports it promotes.

Guard Senior Carl was captain of the Bison quintet as well as the football team. He proved to be a very fine and capable leader, and played a great game at running guard. His floorwork and ability to pass have seldom been excelled by a Bethany bas- keteer. Carl was second in scoring honors for the season. John Tinson . . (Joint Captain) Guard J unn Tinson was not able to play with the team this year due to an injury which kept him out of the game for the entire season. He will be available for service next winter, and from past experience we know that he will be a valuable man to the team. TINSON IIAMILL KENNETH Baker (Captain-Elect) Forward Sophomore Ken played his first year as a regular on the Bethany five and proved that he is capable of holding a berth on the best of teams. Swiftness, accuracy, team work, and determination are all combined in this one mans floor performance. MALCOM Rush Forward Freshman Rush came to Bethany with a reputation as an excellent basketball player. His record for this, his first season in collegiate basketball, more than justifies the good reports that heralded him. Though measuring high as a willing team worker, he managed to cop individual honors in scoring. This is a rare record for a freshman — may his tribe increase ! Oscar Crumm Guard Freshman Oscar did not see action until late in the season, but enough of his playing was viewed to realize that a man who knew the game was on the floor. His knowledge of the game combined with his eager- ness to mix assure him a promising college career as a basketeer. .verity Peyton Telfair Center Freshman Telfair is another freshman who stepped into a varsity berth and held it down in a very credit able manner. Too-tall showed a little shyness at the beginning of the season, but ere the schedule advanced far. he had won the admiration of all bv his clean, hard, and stellar brand of basketball. DAMSCHRODER Ballard Damschrodlr Sophomore Though Dammie has been Guard ... Bethany since a ,car ago, nothing very certain had been known of his prowess on the court. It took but a short time. however, for this tall blond to convince the coach that there was a place for him on the team. His adversaries found in him a man who was well able to keep them covered and to snatch from the very back board, it seemed, their erring shots. Walter Harsh Forward freshman Another freshman. With so many displaying excellence in this sport, the golden age in Bethany ' s basketball seems approaching. Pete always gave the opposition plenty to worry about when he became one of the quintet. Pete is forbidden by heredity to otfer size to the team, but any gap here was more than bridged by his speed and spirit. Wayne Jenkins Forward Freshman Jenkins is another freshman who shows promise of becoming a valued varsity man before he leaves the college. Wayne was seen in action several times and each time gave an excellent account of himself. Jack Addy Forward Senior Jack has always been a faithful member of the squad, and this year has been no exception. He has demonstrated enough abil- ity to make the regulars work hard for their posi- tions. Arthur Markley . Forward Junior Though Art was a little off color in comparison with his splendid form of last year, he. nevertheless, proved that he can play the game. The energy and sincerity which he puts into his action made him one of our most dependable performers. Edward Green . . Guard Sophomore This is Ed ' s first year with the squad, but he has a natural ability which, lent to development, will surely gain him a varsity berth soon.

The complete schedule called for twelve games and was divided into two halves in order that teams not getting off to a good start might revamp their line-ups and thus make competition stronger during the second half of the season. The Sophs found little opposition during the first half except from the Freshmen and romped off with the championship. The Juniors, although not winning a single game during the first half, completely re- arranged their line-up and lost but one game in the second half, thereby cinching highest honors. In the play-off for the league championship the Juniors defeated the Sophomores 22-14. George Dice, freshman, won individual scoring honors with a total of 32 points. He was closely followed, however, by Ottie Cochran and Bill Kelly with 31 each, and Jim Imel who had 30. Kermit Espey with 28 and Ennis Bailey with 25 complete the list of the league ' s leading scorers. Two all-star teams were chosen, representing the best performers of the league: First Team Kelly (C) Imel . Fiers Tinson J. Sigwalt Fresh Second Team .F. _. Buston (C) -F.____ _ G. Dice C.

With baseball material more equally divided among the fraternities than among the four classes, it was decided to have interfraternity baseball. At a meeting of the Interfraternity Council the following committee was appointed as director of the league: OTTIE COCHRAN Chairman.

Handicapped by injuries at the time it went to the annual relay carnival at Ohio State, the team, nevertheless, made a distinctive showing. Their marks of 4 3 4 5 seconds for the 440 and 1 minute 34 seconds in the 880 are seldom surpassed by any college team. In both events they won second place. The team, which is together again this year, is composed of Elliott. Neel. Morris, and Tarr. four of the fastest men ever to represent Bethany on the track. Shivcs. the fifth man. was able to fill in in a creditable manner when needed.

Virgil Elliott, National Decathlon Star 3rd place in Nat. Decathlon Contest (6672 points) — 1926 3rd place with 6712 points — 1927 So did Virgil Elliott, of Bethany College, the institution that lies on the mountainside of West Virginia, battle like a Titan. Indeed, he swept to victory so early and so easily that those less intrepid might have been conquered and wilted in the first flush of the mountaineer ' s mam- moth efforts — thus ran the account, in the Phila- delphia Inquirer of the performances at the Penn Relays of Bethany ' s most scintillating athletic star. Similar words could be borrowed from the lines of any large daily from New York to San Fran- cisco. Into every portion of the country, the name of Elliott has carried with it that of Bethany. News- papers, magazines, news reels — all have been the organs through which these associated names have been proclaimed. Virgil has been the most prolific scorer of any track performer ever to don a Bethany uniform. During his period of participation in track at Bethany, he has averaged a sum of twenty-seven points for all dual meets in which he has been a contestant. In the meet with Carnegie Tech in 1926. he scored thirty- two of Bethany ' s sixty- five points. It is accurately ascribed when this pacing Parson is designated as a one-man track team. It is a fitting climax to his college career that he becomes the first man of Bethany to try for a posi- tion on the Olympic team. Records Held Decathlon 100 Metre . .112 5 sec.

A ■ ■ f otrnniB Tennis, 1927 The Bison tennis team last year was not as successful as Coach Cramblctt expected it to be. Regardless of the fact that every mc-tch was lost, the Bethany men fought nip and tuck battles and were always in the running. Meets were lost to W. B J., Westminster. Carnegie Tech. Duquesne (2). and Geneva. Return engagements with Westminster. Theil. and W. K J. were cancelled on account of rain. Last year ' s squad included Captain Ryan. George Kirby. Hugh Mutchler, Jack Addy, Ottie Cochran, Ren Runk. Ward Stalnakcr. and Nelson Ward. The graduation of Kirby and Ryan left Coach Cramblet with only a small nucleus around which to build his team for this year. However, the ability of Clinton Davidson. William Erskine, and Arthur Nelson, freshmen, considerably strengthened the Bison chances in the Tri-State competition. ; thirty COLLEGE) LIFE Calendar September 19 — Bethany invaded by ambitious throng.

Eeprranttatto tutonta sstesi Mf? f W-GIGC-RT STARN Bethany ' s Representative Students ARRIVING at the conviction that beauty in itself is but a hollow commendation of its possessor, a feature intending to honor the more worth-while attributes of personality and to replace the beauty section of last year was sought. In pursuit of the determination of such a feature, it was thought that a few pages should be devoted to those students who have most con- tributed to the realization of the true aim and spirit of our school — the progress of man through those channels which elevate and dignify him. The selections appearing on the preceding pages were made by a faculty committee, the members of whom have, more than any others, daily opportunity to come into contact with practically all students; members, too, of trusted judgment. The committee made a thorough and conscientious study of every student on the college roster, measuring each with respect to his compatibility with the bases of selection enumerated below. Its decision is not, could not be in view of the intangible nature of their task, perfect and entirely satisfactory; but it does represent an honest conviction shared unanimously by the members. It is the hope of the committee and the editors that this sec- tion will be continued in the next volume of the yearbook, thereby honoring those younger students whose worth shall have more fully evinced itself with the passing of another year. Bases of Selection Character. Constructive Contribution to the College. a. Leadership of organizations. b. Participation in debating, dramatics, publications, athletics, control organizations, etc. c. Contribution to the realization of the college pro- gram through influence exerted in a fraternity. d. Evincing of school spirit and co-operation. e. Any other constructive contribution to the social, religious, intellectual, or physical life of the college. Scholarship — emphasis to be placed upon original and creative thinking. Lack of Destructive Influence. Examples of destructive influence: a. Insincerity. b. Lack of school spirit. c. Self centeredness. d. Unreliability. e. Conscious effort to gain popularity. i eat Irtljattg lags Bettys J5 College BlcJg. rreshiyap (Dranjatics Kl Ji •J v 1 .. s g ■ ; Z?L+ v.. : ' ■ ' f O 1 i mui -— : M v. . i Ef i % i mi—I 1 - ? %iL ■ ■ Mjifni il UU X Ro s UNDER lAlES— AIHM TWMML, Mock Chapel . ■ ADVERTISEMENT.
