T jir y-fii( From The Pen Of The President These ure d.iys of r.ipid strides in higher educuion. Colleges .ire .isklng m.mv questions concerning their own curricuLi requirements, purposes, and place. The college student is to be a more conspicuous feature in higher education. In days past the materials of a college have been measured and colleges have been rated upon such inspections. The new day is to give more attention to the measuring of students. The achievements of each college year will be considered and the final product of the college will be the chief item by which the college will receive its final rating. Bethan ' College is making a strenuous effort to keep abreast of the times. Th ■hifting emphases are being noted and the college curriculum, the campus procedures, the equipment needed, are all being studied with the changed conception in mind. The Bethanian for 1931 undertakes to portray something of the campus life that is prevalent at Bethany College. An honest effort has been made to give an idea of th .ictual enterprises that have to do with the training of individuals. And after all, it is human life refined, chastened, and ' ound, that constitutes the hrst concern of Bethany College. (UU- , x£.vJ_rJ 7 i -7l Thirty- Miidilcii, Citunin l.iiini , Ltui l. rcy.

It is believed, and rightly, that onK ' by the proper appreciation of American governmental institutions on the part of the people can our republic survive. Thus education during the formative years should instil into those who are to be the future-citizens an understanding of the nature of representa- tive government, as well as a recognition of their resposibilities. To this end the Student Board of Governors was organized, thereby adding to the precept of the classroom, practice in directing the destin ' of a social group. But more than providing a labratory, the Board fills a definite place in college affairs. If an educational institution is to be more than a factory where products are turned out, fitted and equipped according to the specifications of the producers, there must be an opportunity for self expression. This is best secured by the intercharge of ideas be- tween faculty and students. The Board, therefore provides a medium for this mutual exchange. The organization of the Board of Governors is not complicated. Each of the major societies on the campus elects a representative. These serve one year, the entire representation going out of office at the same time. The officers are a president, a vice- president, and a treasurer elected from the representatives. In addition there is a salaried secretary, not a member of the Board, who keeps the records and takes care of the members ' correspondence. Among the organization ' s more important duties are those of apportioning student fees and directing the personnel of the student publications and faculty-student com- mittees. Functioning thus, the Student Board of Governors undertakes not only to consider and organize student opinion, but also to put into effect that cooperation be- tween faculty and students which is essential to the welfare of an educational institution. Thirfy-nhic W Bctli.in) College li.is ahwns been the home of friendship. Young men and oung women have here learned to know one another and so to know themselves. Here the faculty and trustees have found the companionship of unselfish tasks and the union of .1 common service. Here student and professor, youth and maturitv, have had the opportunity for a mutual understand and a kmdly respect. Sometimes we have felt that its sheltered life of play and study has not always seemed a very efficient preparation for the larger and more active society, biit we would ardently testif ' that it has nourished worthy intimacies, happy memories, and enduring affections. Whatever other lessons Bethany has inculcated, whatever has been its guidance in the wav of good living, it has ever taught true friendship. Richest friendships grow out of common ideals and interests. The activities and enthusiasms of the college campus make for common ideals and interests among all students. Athletics, dramatics, musical concerts, forums, stunts, and dances, all com- bine to translate our personal ideals and interests into the ideals and interests of the college group. W ' e are lifted out of our narrow and selfish ways and in the midst of colorful activities and generous enthusiasms we attain a self-forgetfulness. And self- forgetfulness is the key to friendship! Extra-curricular activities have a worthy place in the program of a forward looking college. It has even been suggested that their right to existence antedates formal education and finds its birth certificate in human life needs of young men and young women. The various extra-curricular activities on this campus have prospered through this academic vear. Their values to the college and to each of us are fully recognized and genuinely appreciated. They are like mirrors in reflecting the problems and the opportunities, the joys and the disappointments, the virtues and the vices of life, as it must be met when college days are over. But above and beyond these there are higher values than those ascribed by professional educators. The wider contacts, the specific responsibilities, the quickened initiative and the abounding spirit have immersed and captivated us. W ' e have lost ourselves. And in that process we have found a newer, a bigger, and a finer self. We are a part of all that we have seen, of all that we have done, and of all who have shared our life. Our college has trul) ' become an Alma Mater, the iostering mother of self-forgetfulness and friendship. irni Forty-one officers of Administration W. H. Cramblit, T nil surer Harrutti; p.

Sixty-nine ,r When we c.ime to Bethany four years ago. Miss Kemp had her Chevrolet; Prexv leaned over his pulpit and told the youngsters that chapel was not a place for bedlam , and Kirkpatrick would give chapel speeches on the principle Do as I say, but not as I do , and Aunt Pearl had her necking problems. Durmg our Freshman year the Sophomores invited us to run the gauntlet — we did — on the second mvitation we did not. That diplomatic group plead with us, saying Its tradition , — Let us paddle you this year and then you can paddle the Freshman next year — we did not choose to run, but fought it out and won! In our class were Hartley, Pehonskey, Yocum, Carson and Kasarda, who were exceptionally good at throwing water bags — ask Happy to verify this. Mock chapel was in vogue then — that being the day when the poor sports on the faculty cut — there were some real take-offs. Freshman Day was another thorn in Prexj ' s side — it did burn him up when the Freshman acted natural. (You see we were never stricken with this higher education fever). We realize now that those alarm clocks should not he allowed to ring during the chapel services, but then we were only Freshmen. Dancing was immoral — had some supernatural effect upon one ' s libedo, so Kemp said. The Moo Moo Moo had our campus decorated very similar to that of the campus ' s of College Humor . At the begmning of our Sophomore ' ear the administration adopted a hazing plan very similar to that of I.C.S. We don ' t mean to be bragging or boasting but we easily won the Tug-of- V ' ar from the present Junior class by dragging them through the Buffalo Creek. On the morning following Hallowe ' en the sole saver of the Bethanians in the form of a big green sedan with air brakes belonging to the Bethan ' Traction Company was noticed in front of John Huff ' s old store, decorated with the furniture from the Z.T.A. House. We had in our class a number of violent lovers who had that inert desire to put their laundry together — more problems for Aunt Pearl. During our Junior year the Wellsburg jail was supplied with books b) ' the college students — we never heard how those inmates got along with organic chemist) ' and calculus. The Phi Kappa Tau house caught fire again — Mai Rush, ver - absent mindedly put the fire out. Dancing became legitimate — or more legitimate. The Alpha Pi ' s went national and now the ■ can get board and room at twenty nearby colleges for a grip on the wrist. The faculty proved that they were human in their pla ' The First Year. Schwartz died — a sad affair, but can ' t stop here to mourn the dead. The last few high spots that we can recall are that the Alpha Xi ' s were smoked out. (with rags and pepper and not tobacco smoke — this time). The K.D. ' s considered building booths on the bridge, below their house for rainy nights. There were a few shins going through the back window of the Zeta House on the nights of September, October, November, etc. Now that we are to leave Bethany- we find that Miss Kemp still has her Chevrolet, Prexy leans over his pulpit and tells his youngsters that, chapel is no place for bedlam, Kirkpatrick continues to give speeches on the principle Do as I say, but not as I do , and Aunt Pearl still has her necking problems.

Even when, at their Sophomore party, they danced their few scared steps, they felt that thev sinned in the name of a great cause. But what changes have they not seen in the college on the hill. Their boys were the last sufferers of Sophomore raids in Cochran Hall, authority putting an end to that and emphasizing it with a kick. Their girls were the last hardy ones to come to school expecting to live out the year in the old dorm. Their bovs were the last ones to ride on the old trolley — whose very tracks have at last disappeared. In the fall of their Freshman year Bethany saw its first Arbor Da -, and with it the pas mg of the sore thumb which had been annoymg aesthetic minds so long. Thev have watched the nature trail grow from a wilderness to a May Day setting. They have seen dancing grow from a possibility to a fact. Before their eyes many traditions of the school have vanished — no longer do the boys parade in their pajamas, no longer do they broadcast from the tower, no longer does the student body sing on the corridor, or build bon-fires and have pep meetings that are real pep meetings. In place of these things we now have the new Phillips Hall, whose praises have been sung enough else-where. Buck, college dances, a first class basketball team, and John Huff ' s hotel. But though all the vicis- situdes and changes that the college has known in the three years these students have been here, they have stuck together with a unity remarkable in Bethany, where class spirit is so lacking. As a group, they have proved themselves students who can keep well out of the deep water, workers who can plant a tree as well as the next, etficient and successful hosts and hostesses, and bizz-ites not unversed in the gentler social arts. For their Senior year let us wish them all the success possible, that they may finish their college course here as well as they began it.

Not only was it outstanding in numbers but much talent was also shown for they were soon noticed on the campus and active in athletics, journalism and social activities. It was to this class that the honor for having the best party for the 1929-1930 school year was given. The class also contributed much to athletics and certain of their number demonstrated exceptional promise for the coming year. Four of their number won varsity B letters, two in basketball and two in foot- ball. The track and tennis squads also received their share of this class. The men of the class were not the only ones who made a good showing for the girls had one of the best basketball teams of the inter-class league. Musically the class was also very prominent, for a great manv of them were chosen tor the varsity band and treble clef. A fine example of their talent was shown in the class party, A Tour in Musicland, in which the freshman male and string quartet were prominent. Freshman talent was also outstanding in the various dramatic productions, home- coming and May Day programs, which were given during the year. This group as a whole maintained a high scholastic standing and eighty per cent of this group were pledged, seventy-five percent were Initiated into the several Greek letter fraternities on the campus. Several members of the class became active in journalism and were on the staff for the Bethany Collegian and Bethanian. Early in the year the class organized and selected as their officers Henry Jones as their President, Kathryn Mauery Vice-President, and Myron Kauffman, Secretary-Treasurer. These able officers carried through a successful vear which ended only by vacation. Despite the business depression of the year only a few of the class die! not return, and so with the new life after the summer vacation the class began to carry on the good work and reputation it had established in the previous year. Early in the fall they reorganized and chose as president George Tarr, Vice-President Neil Cashman, and Secretary-Treasurer Elizabeth Juergens. With these officers the class has been successful in all its undertakings. This year the class again showed much interest in athletics, and we ftnd four letter men on the football team and three on the basketball team. Track and tennis again claimed goodly share of the class, and the men on these squads made good the promise they had shown their freshman year, and proved themselves to be valuable assets to the squads. Although the sophomore men ' s and women ' s basketball teams did not come out victoriously in the inter-class league, they made a splendid showing, and due credit must be given them. Not only has the class carried on its good work in the field of athletics but it has maintained Its reputation in journalism, and music, and other activities on the campus. There are some members of the class doing work for the Collegian, and many more for the annual. Ahxiut half the college band and orchestra are sophomores, and there are five sophomore men on the varsity debating team. There were many important roles in the homecoming. May Day and various dramatic productions held by members of the class. Besides all this many important positions in the various organizations on the campus will be held by members of the class next year. However we must not forget to mention the success our class party was this year. The class entertained with a formal Christmas Party Saturday evening, December 13, 193 0. Again it was said that the class proved an excellent host. Looking back over the two years we find promises made and fulfilled and are ooking forward to conquering new flekls in the coming years.

Johnston Wilbur Sumpstine ir i n Eighty-ji Freshman Class History We came to Bethany early in the fall of 1931 and at once proceeded to fall in love with the place. The impressive old buildings, the beautiful setting of hills and trees, coupled with the wonderful treatment during Freshman Week and the realization that we were soon to be a part of all that went on here, served to charm us into a feeling of con- tentment and to remove whatever pangs of homesickness we might have been exper- iencing. Our first experiences of Bethany were indeed pleasant, and as the year has pro- gressed, we have found that the pleasure has in no way decreased. With the advent of the upper classmen we entered upon a very busy season. The next two weeks were one continuous round of visits to this sorority and that sorority, this faternity and that fraternity. At the end of the rushing season the great majority of us were pledged to one fraternal organization or another and we were ready to settle down to serious work. The posting of Sophomore Rules did not disturb the peace of our lives; we smiply ignored them. Dinks were generally worn — we were proud of them — but to the rules we paid no attention. There were no open hostilities between the two classes until late in the fall. Then one afternoon, after an excitmg football game, the safety valve blew off. A few enterprising Freshmen raised the class flag above the tower of the main building and succeeded in keeping it there until evening. In the battle which took place that night on the lawn about Cochran Hall, we proved that we were not only masters of the art of self-defense, but that we could carry it beyond defense and inflict a little punishment ourselves. The sophomore flag was down in less that five minutes. In keeping with the general depression and poor conditions throughout the country, we entertained with a hard times party, given in the basement of the library. Everv- one who attended was supposed to wear clothing in keeping with the theme of the evening. A play and ukulele soloes featured the evening. Throughout the remainder of the year we have kept step nicely with the rest of the college and have contributed much to the various activities on the campus. Especially is this true in a musical way for we have thirteen members in the band and sixteen in the orchestra. We also produced a saxophone soloist, two cornetists, two violinists, and a xylophone soloist who is also an excellent drummer. Their renditions in chapel have brought erect many a nodding head. In athletics we seem to reign supreme. Many of our members were on the football squad, three of whom won their letters. The basketball team was ably backed up a number of Freshman substitutes. There have been times when every man on the floor was a Freshman. A six foot-three center and his four flashy companions, two of whom won their letters this year, should be able in the future to keep Bethanv ' s standard for basketball up where it is. That there are others in the class who can play although they were not out for varsity this year, may be seen when we realize that the Freshmen won the inter-class basketball series. The inter-class track meet also went to the Freshmen, several of the members showing much promise for future vears. Seen throughout the year, the record of the class in athletics is remarkable. Much of the success of the Bethany debate teams for both men and women has been due to the ability of three of our members whose clear logic and forceful, polished Ninety _j;peaking have overwhelmed opponents time .uid again. lew Freshmen ever attain to these teams and we wish to give full credit to these members of our class who were able to bring this honor to us. ' e have made a good start; we have found our niche in Bethany ' s life and we have tilled it ablv. It is with a feeling of mingled satisfaction for the past and eager anticipa- tion for the future that we close this chapter of our history.

WOOLERY Faculty Members William Latto Members Kenneth Cowdery Ruth Cunningham B. R. Weimer John Knight The Athletic Board of control is one of the most important and vital organizations on the campus. It has final authority in all affairs athletic of the college. This Board is one of the few organizations that is composed of both members of the student body and the faculty. As it now functions the student body is represented by one student chosen from the Senior Class, one student from the Junior Class, one student from the Sophomore Class and one representative from the Women ' s Athletic Association; and four members of the faculty. Coach Knight and President Goodnight are ex-officio members. Student members hold the offices, with the exception of treasurer. Students and faculty members are equally active in determining the action taken on matters which come before the Board. It is the duty of the Athletic Board of Control to approve all schedules, advise the director of athletics, award letters on the recommenda- tion of the coaches, select the student managers for all sports, supervise administration of athletic funds, and in general to determine the athletic policy of Bethany College. In addition, it functions as the intermediary between the college and the Tri-State Conference. Nmcly-fix ' e S wt ' niilke, Knight. The Bethany footb.ill team suffered .1 disastrous season on the gridiron — disastrous in games won and lost but highly successful in the way the boys played the game with all they had in glorious efforts to bring victory to their Alma Mater. Coach Knight and his team played a fighting game against some of the most powerful teams in the country. When the Knightmen started their campaign on the basketball court the book- keeper was kept busy marking up victories for the Buffalo Creek team. The record of games won and lost in basketball «erved to remove entirely the bad taste of the un- successful football season. NS ' ithout doubt the team that represented Bethany on the hardwood floors this year was the most powerful ever to go through so duflicicult a schedule in the history of the school. The team earned a total of 748 points in eighteen games, to average 42 points per game. The defensive power of the team was shown by the fact that the opponents only accounted for 545 points, or an average of 3 points per game. Good sportsmanship and fair play characterized the team in all its appearances. But, after all, the success of Bethany ' s athletic program does not depend upon the number of games won and lost. Athletics exist at Bethany for the good they can do those who participate. Athletes play for their love of their Alma Mater and for the game itself. It is Bethany ' s policy to be represented in contests by stude nts, not profes- sional athletes. Coach Knight was very efficiently assisted in training the football team by Hubbard Shoemake, former Bethany football star. He assisted generally, and coached the linemen in their part of the work in the Knight system of football. He worked day and night for Bethany, and the line he developed was at times impossible to gain through. At the close of his first year as the head of athletics at Bethany Coach Knight has made a great stride toward making Bison teams examples of sportsmanship in the tri- state district — equally clean and fair whether winning or losing. Such a policy of fair play will undoubtedly take Bethanv to the top in athletics in the future. Ninfty-5 x W ' lsoii.

Peyton Telfair Vm ' ulciit Varsity B Club Dormancy overtakes many a vital organization, and that is jus t what happened to one of the best clubs on the campus this year. Last year there was organized a group of men each of whom had won the varsity B in some athletic participation. A band of different types of men, yet having something in common — welded closely together by a bond that no other organization could have. Men who have exerted themselves in upholduig the name of Bethany m athletics! They knew what it meant to win and lose. They had a kindred spirit that was bound together under the name of the Varsity B Club! Last year there were many wearers of the varsity letter and under the leadership of Peyton Telfair they got a good start. Unfortunately, many members of this club were lost by graduation. This left it in a weakened condition for 1931. However, it is still here on the campus and we hope that with the new recruits of this year it will again grow strong and keep alive the spirit underlying the winning of a varsity letter.

One hiinilrcJ aiul st ' icii Summary of the 1930 Football Season Coach Knight took up training activities for the 1930 squad on the first day of Freshman week and kept the boys playing football until the last. This training period before the first game clearly demonstrated that the team would be ine xperienced, but would fight to the finish and give its best for Bethany. Their first opportunity came on September 17 when the team journied to Washing- ton, Pa., to start oft their campaign against Washmgton Jefferson college. The Bisons fought a stubborn fight agamst the Presidents, one of the strongest teams of the east. It was to no avail, and they lost their initial contest 74-0. Captain Kasarda and Dice showed that their last year would be their best by the way they played that game. Colgate at Hamilton, New York, was the second opponent. This team took high scoring honors of the east for the season with its powerful team of giants. Result of the Bisons ' effort : Colgate 99, Bethany 0. The third game away from home was at Huntington with Marshall college. In this game Bethany got her first opportunity to cope with x team near her own class. The men played fine defensive football for the first two periods, holding Marshall almost scoreless. Then they weakened and lost again, 37-0. On October 24 the Bethany team had its first experience under the fiood lights in a night game. It met W. Va. Wesleyan in Wheeling for this affair. The team played as if possessed, and completely outplayed the Bobcats for nearly two periods. Dice and Kasarda ran, passed and kicked the ball all around to have the best of things. Finally at the close of the second period Weslejan scored on two fine passes. The men had played themselves out during the first half, and the final score gave Wesleyan a 25-0 decision. vrv Kasarda, Captain Senior Mike completed his tour years of foot- ball at Bethany by leading the Bisons in their 1930 campaign. He made this last year the greatest of his career, directing the team at quarterback. The expert open- field running and fine defensive work of this midget were real treats to watch, and gained for him left half position on the all-tri-state second team. Jenkins Senior Jenks finished his v.;rsic)- football as fullback. His work on the defense was outstanding, and his blond head was to bp seen m nearly every play. He did his share of plunging the ball on line plays, but was most efficient in running inter- ,- ' • -■ ference. ' . ' i Ejuttermore Junior . Ralph has. been, .one of the_b.uiwarks of X the line ' a ; - tackle post for three years. , He plays football with.a ' H he has, and it V.! ' , lakes a good team to gain ground through him. He is due a big season In 1931, from all indications. McQuown Junior Kr -jnt was one of those boys who pla ' a guard as it should be played. Few gains were made through his side of the line b ' opposing teams. On the other hand, he was responsible for tearing holes m other lines large enough for the whole backfield to get through. Result: one of the best offensive linemen to wear the Bison colors. Dice Senior George showed that being idle all during the 1 929 season due to injuries could not ruin his ability as a fast and brainy back. From the first game he showed himself to be one of the best all-around backs in the district. He shared high-scoring honors with Kasarda, as well as doing most of the kicking and passing. Dodrill Sophomore Allan .was one _of the most enthusiastic linemen of the squad. Prom his end or ; guard position his spirit was obvious in every game, and tended to raise the morale of the team when the odds were against Bethany. A -7 One hunJrCil and fight Bethany scored for the first time against the Waynesburg Yellowjackets on Novem- ber 1. The team was pretty well battered up from the Wesle) ' an game, and their play !;howed it. In the second period they showed their potential strength by advancing the ball 6 5 yards on fine offensive football. The drive was completed when Kasarda took it over for a touchdown. Final score: Waynesburg 37, Bethany 6. The Bisons once more rose to the heights the following week when they met Thiel at Bethany in their hrst home game. This was one of the best games ever played on College Field. A 42 yard drive enabled Dice to score early in the game. The hne was almost invincible and the backheld worked perfectly. Fate once more ordained that Bethany lose, and a blocked punt recovered behind the goal Hne gave Thiel a touchdown. They made their attempt for the extra point, which Bethany had failed to do. Score: Thiel 7, Bethany 6. Grove City was the last team met away from home. This was one of the hardest fought games of the season. The team gave all they had, but again the score was against them. Result: Grove City 48, Bethany U. W estminster brought a squad of giants to Bethany for the last game on November 22. This game was played on even terms throughout. Once more L.uck decided the outcome. The Titans scored two touchdowns as direct results of Bison fumbles. Thus the season ended with a 14-0 loss. Fisher Junior Carroll again went through a full season at the center of the line without a single bad pass to his discredit. It was his third year of varsity football and his best. Find- ing a competent center will not give the coaches any trouble at all in 193 1. LcNvis Sophomore Despite tlie physical handicap of a par- alysed hand Don proved himself a fighting guard of the first estate. He saw little service during the first half of the season, but played nearly every quarter of the last half. His submarining defense work made him the hardest man on the team to make yardage through. Dupke Junior Emil showed his versatility and real worth as a football player when he was shifted from a guard post to an end posi- tion in the middle of the season. He played both in an unusual way. His ex- traordinary work on the line gained him a guard position on the all-tri-state first team, Dopko Sophomore Big Dan was the strong part of the other side of the line opposite Buttermore. Although he has had only one year exper- ience in college athletics, he was easily one of the outstanding tackles of the squad in his second year. Bethany will have his services for two more years yet. Behnke Senior Bob finished his fourth year as a member of the Bison squad this year. He played a number of games at tackle. He is heavy, steadv while in the game, and a hard tack- ier. Grynaviski Junior Id W.IS one i [he ..-M.M.in ends u !ui h.ul a great deal of bad luck due to injuries this year. He was not able to play part of the season, but showed his worth to the team while he was in the lineup. Vorassi Sophomore Fritz is another back who is hard to stop. He has weight to gain through the line and speed to run the ends, well enough to make a first down when it is needed. With two years of varsity experience next year should be his big one. Greskovich Sophomore Frank broke into the lineup enough to show that he is a fullback who can plunge the line with enough power to make that needed yard or two. He gained quite a bit of experience in this part of the game, and looks like the potential varsity fullback. McVeigh Junior Sammy was understudy for the quar- terback job. The fact that he was the smallest man on the squad didn ' t keep him from being a fine field general. His speed enabled him to have some of the longest runs of the season to his credit. Ir i ' ' One hitnjred and nine Vl After the dust had cleared away from the gridiron we began to ask ourselves just why many people thought our football season so unsuccessful. Now we wonder whv even that was necessary. After a little clear thinking we can see readily that the team did all that anyone could ask of a football team, and had a comparatively successful season. There were many things that one should consider before one criticized the bovs who gave so much of their time and energy, or the coach who worked day and night for nearly three months to develop some semblance of a football team to compete with some of the best teams of the east. Opposition out of their class — numerous injuries — lack of experienced material to start with — a new coaching system — lack of support by the student bod ' itself — these are some of the things they had to contend with which we can think of without much concentrated thought. The boys played a schedule which was easil ' the most difficult ever attempted by a Bison team. They played the game with all the ' had to give. Compartively speaking, they were a better team than Notre Dame. One of the newspaper sports writers of the district has very accurately figured by comparative scores that Bethany is two touch- downs better than Knute Rockne ' s champions. We did place men on an all-something team. When the various coaches of the tri-state district met to select the all-conference team Bethany placed one man on the first team, one on the second team, and seven others of our varsity received honorable mention. Emil Dupke, for his work at guard and at end, against other member-teams of the conference, was placed at right guard on the first team. Captain Kasarda was selected as right halfback on the second team. Vorrasi, Dice, Buttermore, Fisher, Grynaviski, Jenkins and Lewis received honorable mention. It looks like the Bethan ' Bisons were a success as far as the Tri-state Conference was concerened! rr George Freshman Rl ' J wjs one of the few to make his li .iniong the freshmen un the squad. As .1 back he was among the best. He runs the ball, passes and kicks some. An- other year ' s experience in intercollegiate competition will make him one i the most outstanding in tlic district. Mann Sophomore Ike hlled J guard post pan of the season. Later he was shifted to center, where he was Fisher ' s understudy. He is a man who says little but does much. His experience at both positions make him a valuable man to the team. Pollard Freshman Dan iuun showed tlut a freshman caa excel upperclassmen as football players. He did the bulk of the passing for the 1930 season. Once under way with the ball he was good for a first down when he took the ball, and usually it was the sec- ondary defense that got him. He is con- sistent from the first whistle to the last. Still Freshman Malvern was the only freshman end on the squad. He is big and rangy, goes down under punts and is a fine tackier. With such a start in his first year of col- lege athletics he is certain of making a n.ime for himself next year. A -1 Our hunJrcJ auJ d-u Basket Ball Pr iif . ,i;r..

Wesleyan 3 5 J4S On, ' hii}hhiJ tin J iwtlfi Malcolm Rush Forivard Senior Mai brought his collegiate basketball career to a grand climax in the 193 1 season, when he shared the honors of co-captaincy with Telfair, counted enough field goals from the floor to rank as high scorer for the season, and earned a berth on the mythical All -conference team of the tri- state district. During the last four years Mai has been one of the most valuable members of the Bison team. His expert and accurate passing, his uncanny ability to shoot from practically anywhere on the court, and his fine sportsmanship have made him one of the indispensable cogs in the Bethany bas- ketball machines that have established such fine records. Mai is one of those boys who Just doesn ' t get worried when the game is fastest and the going hardest. His effortless playing, fast passing and accurate shooting many times were the very things that turned the tide of the game from defeat to victory. It is a rare treat to see him in action. His very ability made him a marked man by all the teams met. It is that much more to his credit to say that he was at his best in his last year when every man on every team had instructions to stop Rush! Coach Knight will develop several gray hairs before he finds a man to take Mai ' s place in the 193 2 Bison machine, and fill it as he has done! Wayne Jenkins Guard Senior Qy might be compare d in one wa ' with a lightning bug — he came, burned brightls ' for a season, and then went out in the world. In other words, Jenkins played his first and last year of varisty basketball this season. While he did that he showed himself one of the most wiluable men on the team. Jenkins is one of those bo s who likes to spend his time teasing the boys who are playing on the other team. He let them come down close enough to shoot, and then took the ball away from them to start a Bethany offensive drive which would end with a field goal most of the time. He plays a purely defensive game that is one rare treat to watch. He is a very accurate passer and dribbles well. However, his greatest asset is his ability to see in advance where the ball is going. Then he proceeds to get there himself and keep the score-keeper from marking up two more points for the other team. While Cy is at his best when about three men are coming down the floor toward him, he does his share of the offensive work. His speed and passing ability enabled him to alternate with Flading in working the ball up the floor. He is an especially fine floorman. He also came through with fields when they were really needed. Bethany students will watch with regret the passing of this guard who said little, but kept the opponents from being able to say anything. Ir i One hi lit! It ' ll aiiJ thirteen VI Peyton Telfair Center Telly showed up liis collcgiatL- basketball cnm- petition against W. Va. Wesleyan as the outstand- ing man on the floor in more ways than just standing head and shoulders, above the other players. This tall boy from Wilmington proved himself a basketball player of the first order in every game the Bisons played during the 1931 schedule. For four years he has been the pivot man and the ke ' to the entire offense. He is tall enough to take the tip-off from most of the opponents and thus start the Rush-Lackey forward com- bination to working. His offensive value didn ' t stop there. He was so important in the passing attack that his absence was most marked when forced out of the game at times. Telly was invaluable on both the offense and defense. He was tall enough to take a pass abo ' e a guard ' s head and drop it in for a tield goal. It was a real pleasure to watch that one- handed back shot with which he gathered so many counters. His size made it almost impossible to pass through his position on the defense. Many times he converted what were apparently sure shots for the opponents into an offensive drive tor Bethany by intercepting a high pass. This type of work gained him a place on the second all-conference team. Co-captain Telfair ' s pi ' ot post will be another place hard to fill for the 1932 Bisons. Senior rcLT at Bl- Arthur Nelson Guiird Art completed his basketball ihan ' as a member of the varsity squad that made (tne of the best records in the history of the He served as a member of the reserve team that went into the intercollegiate contests hen It was needed, but which was of invaluable aid m developing the combination that was usualh ' known as team A ' , or the varsity. Few people realize how much of a team ' s winning ability is due to the type of opposition given it in thsoe daily practice sessions that only the coach and a few especially interested followers see. All kinds of luck, Art! One biiHilnil iiiiJ fourteen Guy Lackey Forivard Junior The 1 93 1 season was Lackey ' s first as i mem- ber of the Bison varsit) ' . He early in the season proved himself the man to work opposite Rush to make that otfensive combination that was such a sensation eNerywhere the team played this year. The lack of experience in intercollegiate basket- ball did not atfect his playing in the least. He fitted into the machine, and held his forward berth against all opposition on the merit of his excellent floor work. Lackey did nor score as many points as some of the other forwards, but a part of the credit for their scormg rhem goes to him. He covered the entire floor, both on the offense and defense- It was his height and pure basketball ability alone that made him this year, not a star, but an indis- pensable part of the Bethany machine of all- stars . His specialty is lung shots, when he does add to the scoring. Many times he came through with two-pointers just when they were most needed. The victory over the C est Virginia Mountaineers was due in a large measure to this boy ' s long-range ability. The experience gained this }ear will be in- valuable for him next year when he will form the nucleus for the offensive power of the 1932 Bison. v ' e ' re looking for bigger things next year. Lackey! Emil Dupke Guard Junior Hmil helped Flading. Bruhn and Giesey hold up the honor of heeling in Bethany basketball this ear by proving himself a real asset to the fast-stepping Bisons as either a guard or forward. He showed his past experience of two years as a member of the varsity squad in the games in which he played. Dupke usually served as leader of the shock- troop rive Knight used in the second and fourth quarters of most of the games during the early part of the season. He worked with this combin- ation at both forward and guard posts, and proved himself a fine utility man. Ill luck overtook this always-cheerful basket- ball pla er late in the season in the form of a rerious illness of his mother. This required that Bethany lose the services of this promising man for the last few games. However, he will be back with twice as much energy next year and show how to play that guard post Jenkins will vacate when he graduates this vear. Irni One hiiudrcii and Hitccn vr Irvin Flading Guard Sophomore Gov ' s second ycLir of varsity basketball for Bethany was even more spectacular than was tht season in which he made his B as a Freshman, and proved himself one of the most valuable men on the team. He played basketball just well enough this year to gain state and conference re- cognition as a defensive man at a guard positions, and still score a total of 155 points to add to the high total of 748 counters for the season. His diminuti e size proved to be an asset, rather than .1 liability, this season. He was often tiie smallest man on the floor, but at the same time one of the hardest to score on. His natural basket- ball ability coupled with his humor made Flading a drawing card for all his Ohio Valley friends who followed him through a most unusual high school court career, terminating in natioEial re- cognition. Flading ' s unusual dribbling and defensive work in breaking up other dribbles as well as passes. combined with his fast footwork, made him the man into whose territory other coaches didn ' t want their plaj ' s to go. Gov is another man win will help make the 19. 2 season a success, when that time rolls around. Daniel Pollard Forward Freshman While Dan was a newcomer to Bethany basket- ball this ear. lie proved himself most valuable as a member of the team all during the season. He gave great evidence as to his worth in the opening game by breaking into the scoring, and ac- counted for several points during the season. Per- haps the most obvious witness to his basketball prowess is the fact that he was the only Freshman to win his varsity B in the 1931 campaign. He is one of those men who plays the game with all he has, and fits into the team like a cog in a machine. He was a general utility man for the 1 93 1 Bison, and worked as well at a guard as at forward. His eye for the basket enabled him to rank fifth in individual scoring. It is such men as Pollard coming on in the Freshman class that makes living anything but misery for a coach when he loses such men as Knight will lose this year. Consequently, Dan will be one of the veterans around which to build the 1932 Bison basketball team next year. We ' ll hear more from you next year, Dan! Om- nii liiJ iiuii siyfccti Coach Knight directed tlic 1931 Bison courtmcn through one of the most successful seasons in the history of the college. The team defeated ever) ' college met during the season at least once, with the exception of the Ceiling-scraper five from Westminster. When the schedule was completed it was found that Bethany had gone through eighteen cf the hardest kinds of basketball games, and had won fifteen of these. Four lettcrmen were available to Knight at the beginning of the training season. Co-captains Telfair, center and Rush, forward; Flading, guard; and Bruhn, guard were the veterans of 193 who formed the nucleus for the present season. Prospects were bright for a championship team from the ver) ' start. These lettermen were hard pushed for their permanent positions by a large group of other candidates, most of whom were Freshmen. By the time the schedule was initiated some of these men had proved themselves varsit)- material. The first squad then consisted Rush, Lackey, Telfair, Flading, Jenkins, Polland, Funk, Geisey, Dupke, Nelson and George . By the time the team started otf the season two teams had been developed that were at times unbeatable. The daily practices were as good to watch as some of the intercollegiate competition. At times there was no distinction between team A and team B. At that time a knee operation on Bruhn took the Bethany stock down some. He was lost to the team until the last few games. The Knightmen initiated their 1931 schedule with a trip into eastern Penns ' Ivania to meet Juniata and Penn State. Both these games were easy Bethany victories. Four games at home were next in line. The boys took W. J., Thiel, Allegheny and Geneva by decisive scores, to run their total to six victories. The Mountaineers of West Virginia University were the next victims for Bethany at Morgantown. The eighth victory was over W. J. in the return game at Washington. It was a stiff battle, but was finally won after a hectic struggle. An overwhelming victory over Waynesburg at Waynes- burg was the ninth consecutive win for the Bisons before the - returned to Bethany for a two-game stand with two of the most powerful teams on the schedule, Westminster and W. Va. Wesleyan. The giant Westminster Titan team was the first team to dampen Bethany ' s cham- pionship hopes. Bethany matched speed and basketball brains with Westminster ' s speed and basketball brains plus the advantage of having the entire team well over six feet tall. Result: Bethany 29, Westminster 31. The Bisons once more got the winning way the following Friday when they met Wesleyan. However, their second defeat came three days later when they played Westminster again at New Wilmington. Two more victories were marked up when Bethan ' defeated Thiel and Allegheny in the return games. Neither of these were especially difficult for the team. Waynesburg furnished the greatest upset of the season in the next game. The Yellow jackets flashed a careful and determined offense that wore the Bisons down. Final score: Waynesburg 3 5, Bethany 33. This was the fourth game in five nights, and the team was in poor condition for such a pace. In order to finish in the winning column the team took Geneva, Fairmont and Wesleyan in the final games away from home without any great trouble. Irni One hiDnlvfil aiij sci I ' lifcnt ihA Under the direction and supervision of Coach John Knight Bethany athletic teams tasted their share of both victory and defeat during the season of 1931. Mr. Knight came to Bethany from the position of head coach at Wheeling high school. During his one year here he has already won a high place for himself in the respect of all the students and faculty members with who m he has worked at Bethany, but also has he gained the iighest respect of the other teams which his Bison teams have met during the year. Coach Knight believes that sportsmanship and fair play arc the first essentials of any team. His policy in all sports is to have his men well trained physically, thoroughly versed in the fundamentals and the rules of the game, and filled with the desire to plav the game square and hard — win or lose. This policy is reflected in every game that the Bisons played this year. Of c- hmulrcil . . cighli ' cn Intra-mural Champs Tho liitra-mur.il basketball program was divided this year equally between the inter-class league and the inter-fraternity league. It extended from the first of January until the first of March, keeping a large percentage of the men in the student body in active athletic competition for two months. The emphasis in athletics has shifted from only a few playing the game and the mass looking on to the point where the mass also plays. A well-rounded intra-mural pro- gram is carried on at Bethany under of the students themselves to give every student in college an opportunity to take part in athletics. In consequence the student body as a whole gains the psychic profit that comes from playing the game — giving one ' s best for the good of the team, win or lose. The natural result is a better spirit of sportsmanship and cleaner living. Inter-class League The first half of the season was given to the playing of the inter-class league. This circuit was composed of a team to represent each of the four classes. From the first game to the last the competition was keen and bitter. However, by the time the schedule was well under way it was obvious that the Class of ' 34, the present Freshman class, had the strongest combination. The team that gave the winners their most trouble was the Junior five. These boys fought tooth and nail, and the fact that they got off to a bad start possibly accounted for their not forcing the Frosh to a play-off to decide the final outcome. The defending champions of 193 0, the Sophomores, were out of the running from the start.

This team scored a total of 148 points in four games. The Betas so had a strong team, and lost only to the Sigs. A great deal of credit is due to Sigs, for thev had to have a real team to rake over all opponents in a league as fast as was this one.

The fact that Bethany has no baseball team has given track the most prominent place in the spring sports program. The candidates trained informally for some weeks before the first practice, and were in the best of physical condition when the practices cfficiallv started under the direction of the coaches. The first event on the 1931 schedule was the annual Inter-Class Meet. When the officials got this affair under way there were just forty-two entries from the four classes. These men included nineteen upperclassmen. All of them took part in the 193 meet, and some were the chief pomt-getters in the intercollegiate meets. The other twenty-three participants in the inter-class meet represented the Freshman class. All gave promise of deveh)pmg nito real track stars m the future. Coach Knight is placing his greatest hope in the veterans of last year. Among these experienced men are Co-captains Dice, Yocum and Owen; Espey, the fastest quarter- miler to wear the Bison colors in the past few years and winner of that event in the invit- ation meet at West Virginia University in 1930; Tarr; Bruhn; Buttermore; Hartley; Mann; Hopkins; and Dopko. Among the other promising upperclassmen who took part in the interclass meet were Dupke, Gilson, Greskovich, Hodgson, Houston, ZmTmerman, .ind Hoffman. The burden of gathering points in the field events will fall upon Field Captam ociim m the broadjump, Bruhn in the javelin and shot put, Buttermore in the hammer, Jenkins in the discuss, Hartle in the high jump. Captain Dice will carr the burclen in the dashes, along with Zimmerman. Hartle ' and Yocum show the greatest promise in Out ' j mdrvd ,iriil t willt -l no the hurdles. Espey will be the fl.iih to worry the opponents in the qu.uier mile run, as well as the 220. Distance Captain Owen and Mann will be counted on to take Bethany ' s share of points in the distance events. All these men will be strengthened by the new men in the Ircshman class. While none of these men have had any experience in intercollegiate competition a few of them looked good enough in the inter-class meet to win a number of points for Bethany before the season is over. Among these are Silvis, ten-second dash man; McCune, flashy low hurdler; Philips and Horner, who will represent Bethany in the pole vault; Snedager and Furguson, de- pendable distance men; Hostetter, fast middle distance runner; Sowers; Waugh; Weiss; Wilkins; Bramhall; and Potter. All of this promising talent under the coaching of Knight will unduiibtedl) continue Bethany ' s high standing on the cinder path during 1931. The Boys have an enviable record to maintain, as Bethany has not lost a dual meet in the last five years. Great luck. Bisons! Summary of the 1930 Season Espey, Dice and Owen flashed through as wmners in events at the West Virginia University Indoor meet in March. In the first dual meet, the annual meet with W. J. the Bisons took the decision by a comfortable margin. Duquesne at Pittsburgh was the next victim, by a close score of 68-67. The schedule was terminated by the Tri-State Conference meet at Geneva College. Schedule for 1931 y pnl IS __ Inter-Class Meet April 2 5 _„.. ...„ . _. W. J.

Tennis Bethany ' s tennis prospects jre bright for the most successful season of the history of the school for the 1931 season. The squad that played through a successful season last year is still in school, intact. In addition to the veterans there are a number of promising netmen in the Freshman class. Among the lettermen of 1930 are Dallas and Cowdery, the men who were most consistent winners. Both theve men are in the best of form, and it is a toss-up which one will play as number one. Nelson, Barclay, Sala, Bailey, Brand, Darr and Hrskine are the lettermen available. These men should make Bethan ' s strongest team. In addition to these veterans of intercollegiate battles. Beck- man of the Freshman class looks to be one of the outstand- ing tennis players in school. Although the team will have its roster almost entirely m.ide up of letterm.n, the going will be far from eas ' . The Director of Athletics has scheduled some of the strongest teams in this part of the country. However, we are looking for the Green and White to win a majority of their matches.

Cramblet W. K. WOOLERY All student publications of Beth.in)- College .ire directed by the governing body known as The Student Board of Publications. This body is composed of the Editors of the Bethanian and Collegian, while managers are selected to look after various depart- ments. The Board is advised by the faculty advisors who aid considerably in directing .;nd exercising control in matters relative to all college journalism. Paul Carlisle serves as chairman of the Board and as Editor of the Bethanian. This IS one of the most outstandmg positions on the campus and the Editor has proven his worth by publishing a book which is far superior to many others. Paul Carlisle meets all the requirements of an Editor and has not been found lacking in any respect. Thomas Dailey has done much the past year as Editor of the Collegian to improve the publication, striving to express student opinion and make it appealing to all under graduates. Mr. Dailey has introduced a great of new material and worked hard to make it successful. Thomas Carson managed the executive part of the Board and has overseen the business affairs in a capable manner. Herald Monroe has worked hard in the circulation depart- ment and has built up an acceptable field in making contacts with alumni. Harold Detman has worked wonders in view of the economic situation and has turned in a fine piece of advertising work. The Board is composed of only members of the Senior Class and is managed as a large corporation would be operated. This affords ample opportunity for experience in work of this type and the Board is appreciative of this fact. Also, the confidence placed in the organization for it is an important phase of student activities. Oni ' }iiiitlr,il iinj lluriy-nttt ' ■il A The Bethanian Paul A.

In keeping with that theme we have respectfully dedicated this current number to those men then, down through the decades, and now, who have faithfully served, and devoted their lives to this — our Alma Mater.

Without their self-giving cooperation the publishing of it would have been a failure. To those who have given of their time and thought, although not connected with the staff, we wish to give due thanks.

This Near we are somewhat proud in the celebration of our golden Jubilee. Few publications in the country can point to such a past as ours. The Bethany Collegian has struggled through three of our national conflicts. It has so established itself in the life of the college that we hope and believe that it will be a permanent part of campus life in Bethany Today the Collegian reaches Bethanians at home and abroad. It is subscribed to by a large number of our alumni and friends and is kept in the exchange files of man) ' of our sister institutions. It is our hope that some day Bethany College will have a department of Journalism and so will be enabled to publish a paper which will measure nearer to the ideal. We are not apologizing for the past for we feel that this year has been for the most part a favorable one in the light of reactions which we have received. With Bethany ' s new program we trust that the Bethany Collegian will grow and improve. We hope that next year will be the best ever.

The Bison Serenaders vr Organized in 192 8, the Bison Serenaders is merely .1 group of musically inclined young men whose purpose was to amuse themselves; then, upon the request of Prof. Sumpstine, they began to furnish the musical accompaniment for Friday night shows. Soon the) ' were m demand for practicalh ' all college functions such as teas, parties, and later, in 193U, for dances. Since that memorable year, this organization has been ever active, consisting of six men, namely Mendel Hirst, George Newell, John Baxter, Ray- mond Silvis, Ted Eldridge and Edwin Johnson. The last three men named here be- came members of this orchestra at the beginning of the present year, following the graduation of Lorenzo Runk, Paul Arrow, and the transfer of Gardner Peene to U. of Penna. at the close of the 1929-1950 term, all of whom were actively connected with the orchestra during its earlier stages. It is a most peculiar, although amazing fact that these musicians never use music of . n kind, all of their musical arrangements being original, or taken from victrola records. There has never been a rehearsal preceeding an engagement, and the entire supply of music consists of a sheet of paper upon which is written the names of the selections which they ha e chosen to play for any function. The Serenaders have at times presented excellent vocal numbers, the most popular number being an arrangement of fraternit) ' songs which has been on the program at least once for every occasion. Their programs are always well selected, composed of blues, stomps, waltzes, .ind luw, dream numbers which have always made such a hit at the close of an evening when the lights were low. The theme song of this orchestra is ' T Love No One But You and this selection marks the beginning and the closing of each aftair. 0 t ' hiniJrcJ iiiij forty The College Orchestra Each succeeding ycM finds our college oi ' chcstr.i stronger .ind better eciuipped th.ui the year before. The students composing the orchestra all have talent and abiht - unusual for a college orchestra. This year the orchestra presented several very fine Chapel programs. However, we might say that the musical presented at the Bethan ' Memorial Church bv the orchestra, April 19, at which time Schubert ' s Unfinished Symphony in B minor was beautifully rendered, merits the appreciation and esteem of everyone. Much of the credit for their expectional work goes to Dr. B. R. W ' eimer.

The meetings are well attended, and offer inspiring programs planned to promote and develop musical, literary and forensic abilitA-. At various times during the year the meetings were conducted as Forums and speakers were obtained to lead the discussions.

Bethan - could never have a peppier group than these nine girls, chosen each year, to go about and sing her praises. During the year the girls under the direction of Mr. F. H. Kirkpatrick enter- tained with their songs in Wheeling, W. x., Bellaire, Ohio, and other near-by cities, and made Bethany live in the hearts of all who heard them. As they go about and sing the song of the Bell and others just as dear to us, they create an interest in Bethany and Bethany ideals and thus fulfill their real purpose. The Pep Girls not only arouse an interest in people out side of Bethanv, but the with their songs of praise make every one of us proud to be a Bethanian. One hiiihlri ' il iiiiJ forfy-jiit [■ ,r fviVl ' Men ' s Debate The men ' s dch.ite squad started the 1931 season with a distmct scarcity of veteran material. Earl Owen and Wayman Parsons were the only whe had had collegiate debate experience, although a number of the other boys had done some excellent work in high school debating. The opening debate saw Bethany ' s afHrmative team arguing the Unemployment Insurance question with a team from Baldwin-Wallace College. In spite of the fact that the decision was given to the team visiting from Ohio, Bethany ' s three men, Opper- man, Hopkins and Parsons, acquitted themselves well. Our negative team, Cadwell, Lunger and Lenhart, then travelled to Alliance, Ohio, to meet Mount Union and to Berea to meet the same Baldwin-Wallace team that had debated at Bethany. The decision at Alliance was two to one in favor of Mount Union, while at Berea, the single judge voted for Baldwin-Wallace. These two teams were the most seasoned ones met by Bethany throughout the year, the Mount Union team having won its last twenty debates. The tariff debates opened more auspiciously, when Bethany ' s affirmative team, Mus- grave, Mann and Lunger travelled to Waynesburg and the negative team, Owens, Hopkins and Lenhart, entertained the Waynesburg affirmative group. Both negative teams won. The next debate was against Hiram College, on unemployment insurance, the negative teams travelling. Bethany won both of these debates, and also the two debates agamst Westminster on the tariff question. One of the Westminster contests was held at New Wilmington; the other one at the First Christian Church of Canton, Ohio, under the auspices of the Bethany Class. The two final debates were on the tariff question, against Thiel College affirmative at Greenville, Pa , and against Thiel negative at Bethany. Once again, both negative teams won. In addition to the boys mentioned above, Hodgeson, Moos and Lemert served as alternates. With six out of the eleven contests won by Bethany, and a wealth of good material developed for next year, the season may be considered a successful one.

On April 2 3rd the same team met the Hiram team at Hiram, Ohio, and scored a second victory, making a perfect record for the season. The negative team composed of Ruth Cunningham, Margaret Laughrey and Mary Crum lost to the Waynesburg girls at Waynesburg, Pa., on April 20th. They met and defeated the Hiram team at home on April 2 3 rd. Marguerite Arnold was manager of the girls debate team this ) ' ear, and Professor O. T. Booth coach.

The members are chosen from among those who have taken part in any college plays and have shown real dramatic ability. The purpose of Merry Masquers is a very unselfish one ior the- members attempt to create an interest in dramatics throughout the entire school, and not merelv within their own small group. Although the club lias sponsored only one plaA ' this year, the clever one-act play Rehearsal well presented at the Mid-Winter Elomecoming entertainment, the members have been awake and active throughout the year. This is shown by the questionnaire devised by Merry Masquers and presented to the student body in Chapel for the purpose of determining the number of students inter- ested in dramatics and in favor of more in Bethany College. It is through the Merry Masquers that the real talent in this field existing among the students can be developed. Mrs. Bourne, Faculty advisor for the club, has inspired the members by her tireless efforts to make Merry Masquers a real, worthwhile dramatic club.

The Ministerial Association The Ministerial Association is one of the important adjuncts of Bethany. The pur- pose of this group is to keep aUve that divine spark that kindles the hearts of men, and makes them willing to give their time and effort to Christian services — to keep it aglow, amid the studies and activities that absorb so much of the student ' s attention. Its aim is to foster a spirit of brotherhood among the ministerial students, which will grow and continue after they are out of school, and to create a lasting group consciousness. It endeavors to offer advice and suggestions, and to brmg before the ministerial body able speakers from time to time. Nearby pulpits are filled and efforts are made to give every man some experience in active service in the field. Faculty Members Osborne Booth F. H. Kirkpatrick Andrew Leitch E. L. Perry F. R.

Inni One hundred attd fifty-one m ' Young Women ' s Christian Association The Young Women ' s Christian Association, composed of all the young women in the college, is now one of the foremost organizations on the campus. The Association is growing steadfast in its purpose which is to promote fellowship among all the young women in Bethany and their associates in life, to create the spirit of friendship where young women are bound together by spiritual ties and enjoy together the beauties of friendship and sweetness of worship. The Y.W.C.A. has grown and developed until it now includes all the young women on the campus, and is a constant inspiration to every member. The friendly feeling among the girls Is fostered by weekly meetings held every Thurs- day night in the recreation room of the beautiful new Phillips Hall, at which times the girls are addressed by women faculty members and Y. W. girls. The meeting always offer attractive programs and are very well attended. One of the most worthwhile duties of the Association is that performed in the Big and Little Sister plan whereby all new girls coming to Bethany as freshmen are wel- come by a Y.W. big sister, who helps and advises her in matriculation and in the adjustment to College life as well as proving herself a real friend at all times. One of the happiest and most enjoyable features of the year ' s program was the retreat held at Oglebay Park for the new and old officers and cabinet members, held for the purpose of making plans for the coming year. The Y.W.C.A. everywhere signifies progress and Christian fellowship and for these Bethany Y.W. is constantly working.

Acting as an executive nucleus, this group endeavors to furnish a program to the student bodv both tor their benefit and their participation, thus establishing a definite and vital bond between the students and the Church. Conducting forums with such leaders of American thought as Dr. Sidney Fay, Dr. Alva Taylor and Dr. R. Baenton and others the Board in cooperation with Mr. Beck has attempted to stimulate thought on contemporary world problems. Private discussion groups, religious dramas, social investigations along with a considerable amount of individual work makes up their program. The aim of all their activity consists in the attempt of instilling into the student body the Christian viewpoint on the problems in life. The Board plays an important role in the life of Bethanv.

College Women ' s Church Council The College Women ' s Church Council, although the organization has only been on the Bethany College campus for two years, has a real purpose and is doing a real work for the college and the church. The Young Women ' s Church Council has for its purpose the forming of a closer contact between the church and the young women of the college. Student problems concerning the church are given consideration, and an attempt is made by the members to improve on any undesirable conditions. To Mr. Beck is due much credit for the organization of the College Women ' s Church Council and for his untiring efforts to make it a worth while organization. During the year this group brought to the church such outstanding women as Mary E. Austin and some who were interested in vocational education. Open Forums and also discussion groups with the young women of the college were conducted by these women.

The general term fraternity means an organization of brothers — members of the same famiU ' — living together — bound as one for a common end. As small groups go together to make up society — so a fraternity is but a unit, a small division of a universal fraternitv in which we are all brothers. A fraternity teaches one to associate in a brotherly way with his fellow members. Necessarily there is cooperation and thus one learns sooner and perhaps in a more friendly way the proper step in participation with his brothers in the big fraternity. May fraternities be eternal — with their separate yet similar ideals. Each one is good because of its high aims, perhaps Utopian in aspect, but only as such can it do the best good. Because the unattainable ideal when sought, brings forth the finest traits man possesses, then a fraternity is performing its work successfully as a cog in the greater brotherhood of Life as long as it continues to achieve its aims. We are indeed fortunate in Bethany to have five national fraternities, four national sororities and one good local. When there is such organization as is here shown, there can be nothing else but close bonds. In a small student body there is necessarily close acquaintance but this heightened by fraternity links pulls us even closer together. This common feeling and friendship is manifest by Pan-Hellenic and Inter-Fraternity gatherings. Problems that otherwise would grow are easilv met on the common field that we have in Bethany.

Throughout the years it has functioned, and now the type of work being done by it cannot be under- estimated. During the school year 1930-31 the council has taken such steps as to create an harmonious interfraternity feeling. For some unknown reason the annual smoker sponsored by this group was eliminated, but at the present writmg plans for an Interfraternity Dance and a Minstrel are under way. The council sponsors intra- mural sports and interfraternity scholarship competition. The officers and members of this organization deserve credit for their efforts to create good will among the frater- nity groups. Oirc hinijy.

Each group is represented by three members, the ofHces are held in rotation by the fraternities in the order of their installa- tion as nationals on the campus. Regular meetings of the Association are held once a month at which time rushing and pledging rules and questions of local Panhellenic interest are discussed. The Panhellenic Association has always inspired a feeling of friendliness among the various groups.

Our purpose is to stimulate PEP . Well we have it — in boxes with the name on it so as not to mistake it for cornflakes. Our meetings, both of them, were short and disgustmg, and the dues — well who knows? In seriousness we did give a couple of good programs. We will admit tlie - were good so give us credit.

One can get so much more meat and so much more easily by eating a drum stick or other piece. Dean Morris claims that chic- ken meat is fattening. She de- sires all ot her girls to be of that clinging vine type and hence get more pleasure out of life. Miss Morris says that she is glad to allow others to profit by her slight miscalculations as to the nature of thmgs. PRESIDENT RETURNS FROM CONVENTION and on my my lap sat Mayor Thompson of Chicago The student body of Bethany should appreciate President Goodnight who travels here and there over the entire country just for them to get the latest, newest, best methods available to mee t the varying needs of know- ledge in their cerebellums. Prexy reports having a very enjoyable time at Ososh; the highlight of the trip was the banquet held the last night of the convention. The President himself describes it vividly. On my left sat Calvin Coo- lidge, on my right sat Harry Langdon, on my — in front of me sat the emporer of Jana, in back of me sat Al Capone, about as far away as I could spit sat Charles Lindberg, and on my lap sat Mayor Bill Thomp- son of Chicago. Prexy we are all for you — but does the Mayor wear a four- in-hand or a bow tie? Does he have halitosis or athletics foot? Student interest in the intimate touches of this trip is consuming the campus in a great flames of envy. LEITCH ADVANCES BIG RUSHING QUESTIONNAIRE Because we are living in a questionairre age it is only fit- ting and proper that fraternities should have the low down on Freshmen in order to know who to rush and how and why.

It is used for wash- ing the feet, stimulating the sale oi surplus collegiate slickers and on rare occasions Is used as a beverage. (Editors note— This practice is very dangerous as there is great probabilit)- that it will rust your pipes. ) It is this very obstacle which prevents ambititious engineers from con- structing a macadam road from New York to London.

If you are of the masculine sex, you undoubtedly would like to know the un- derlying character of the co-ed with whom you are affiliated. The solution is simple. Ask her what month she was horn in. Should she say, January, she will be majoring m religious education, wear red flannels and name her first child- Aloysious. If she was born in February, she will be moody, fickle, marr ' three times, twice in Wellsburg and once legally. If she was a March child, she is likely not to be intelligent but very attractive, yet will graduate with a B average. Watch her-she ' ll flirt and elope with a Phi Beta Kappa. If born in April, she will take )ou too jerious. Beware of this type. They dote on fraternity- pins — cr ' — talks — (bab) ' talk). We ' ve warned you! If she was born in May, she will insist in carrying an umbrella if there is a cloud in the sky. Her type never skate home. A June born child is discreet, affable and popular. She has been known to pet. And if she was born in Julv, she will be a chatter-box-frivolous, and drink it straight. She believes in companionate marriage. If born in August, she will be the secret passion of ever ' man who sees her, but she will know it, and Miss will appear on her tombstone. A September born girl, after adolescence will drink, smoke and tell dirty jokes. If she was born in October she will be pure and innocent until she goes to col- lege. She will become very popular — ??? If she says she was born in November, she will teach school all her life, be presi- dent of the Parent-Teachers Association and all because she never used Llfe-Buoy soap. If she was born in December she will be amiable and practical and will likely marry a prince, duke or a beer baron. Her children will have air-cooled teeth.
