i BCTHANI COLLEQB tiBRAHT •l 4: ' iN 0.-f.t; kiH 1 THE 1955 BETHANIAN Presentedby THE SENIOR CLASS Bethany College Bethany, West Virginia RICHARD AHLES Ed for NICK LINN 2 us, ness Manager . ' :A ♦ FOREWORD There is a great deal that goes into the prepara- tion of a yearbook, it is difficult to explain the worry, anxiety and even the pleasure that a yearbook staff receives for its efforts. The 1955 Bethanian has had its full share of anxiety and pleasure, with the former outweighing the latter during the many months of work that went into the book you are now reading. The staff of the 1955 Bethanian, after the long months of toil hopes to achieve the pleasure of producing o yearbook that each student, faculty member and friend of Bethany College will cherish long after we have left the college.

KIRKPATRICK Adjunct Professor of Personnel Management It has been difficult for members of the Senior Class to refer to Dr. Kirk- patrick without using the term Dean before his name. Although he hasn ' t served as Dean of Students since our freshman year, he will always be Dean Kirkpatrick to the Class of 1955. He will also always be known as a great friend and counsellor to the Class of 1955. It is with deep pleasure and personal respect that the Senior Class dedicates this 1955 Bethanian to Dean Kirkpatrick. IN MEMORIAM DR. CHARLES BROWN Professor of Chemisfry i SHIRLEY MORRIS Class of I 955 ■ GEORGE RUSSELL Class of 7 954 i FT CULTY... ■•  .. 1 t ■ i- The President Second year men in baseball have often been known to go through the torments of what is known as a Sophomore Slump. While there are no existing records to prove it, we can assume that college presi- dents have also been known to have had trouble during their sophomore year. This, however, has not been the case with our twelfth president. He has passed through the important sophomore year showing that the promise he displayed as a rookie was real and lasting. DR. PERRY EPLER GRESHAM Pendleton Heights, home of Dr. and Mrs. Gresham. 10 Dean of the Faculty Dr. Weimer has given long and faithful service to Bethany College, and the years have brought to him great ad- miration and appreciation from Bethan- ians. BERNAL WEIMER . . The Deans Dean of Students Dean McAllister has exhibited good judgment in his first year as Dean of Students and has won the respect of the student body. LESTER McAllister 11 Dean of Women In a comparatively short time, Mrs. Webster has become a trusted friend as well as Dean to the women students of Bethany. WINIFRED N. WEBSTER . .

CHANDLER SHAW Professor of History and Political Science and Head of the Department The Library . . . Bethanians can look with pride upon their library, which, due to the fine work of an out- standing librarian, is one of the best small college libraries in the United States. This year ' s senior class is greatly indebted to Mr. Behymer and Mrs. Woolery for having aided so much the pursuit of knowledge undertaken by the class during the past four years. We hope sincerely that their dream of a new and better building is soon realized. E. HUGH BEHYMER Librarian and Professor of Library Science EDNA W. WOOLERY Assistant Librarian THE STAFF.

Bethany College, primarily an educational institution, varies its instruction with field trips, slides, and movies. A major port of the v ork is still done in the classroom, but the classroom can be any- thing from the state legislature to a steel mill. Members of the American History class fake a frip out of the classroom to visit the state capital. Mr. Hettler shows a film strip fo his German class. The English seminar class meets with Miss McGuffie. 19 SENIORS 20 If: . ik ' u? t -. Alfred Adams North Canton, O.

With the exception of being the most difficult doss in the college to photograph, since so many showed up for the picture, the Magnanimous Class of 1957 became an integral part of Bethany in this, their second year. We can ' t think of anything the group did as a unit, except pose for the picture above, but everyone seemed to like them. ED JOHNSON President 38 Freshmen . . .

As the governing council of the five national fraternities, the position of the Inter-Fraternity Council is one of great importance to the campus. This year the group did on excellent job administratively, the main policy being the decision regarding point averages of prospective social privileges . It was social- ly, hov ever, that the organization really outdid itself. The almost-annual Inter- Fraternity Ball not only was held this year, but also was considered by many to have been the best college function of the year. Due to the tireless efforts of John Palafoutas and others, the organization was able to sponsor this excellent dance with Ralph Marteri and his orchestra. Members of the Inier-Fraternity Council and their dates listen to a little Caravan Pan-Hellenic Council The Pan-Hellenic Council is composed of the president and rush chairman of each sorority. This year, under the direction of Mary Hildebrand and advised by Mrs. Webster, the council developed a new program v hereby the pledges of each sorority v orked together in a Help Week . Another important job this group has is to plan and decide rushing policies. A little action at a Pan-Hell tea. 43 r . r I IS First Row, left to right-. W. Weber, G. Frederick, G. Burghard, B.

Alpha Sigma Phi DAVE MOORE President In what many consider the most beautiful house on campus, the members of Alpha Sigma Phi have a well-organized, closely knit group. Under Dave Moore ' s administration, the chapter had a number of informal parties, an excellent open house, and the annual Christmas formal. 44 The one on the left is Herrington.

Pledge training. 45 Beta Theta Pi Nearing the century mark on Bethany ' s campus, Psi of Beta Theta Pi continued its pursuit of high intellectual, social and organizational standards. The loss of the scholarship cup for the first time in many years was the only unfortunate incident in an otherwise out- standing year for the Betas.

Kappa Alpha Kappa Alpha distinguished itself in many ways this year, with the most notable achievement being the acquisition of the scholarship cup at the end of the second semester. With remodeling completed on the house, the KA ' s impressed the campus with its open house early in the year. The usual annual events, the Convivium Banquet in honor of Founder Robert E.

Bob Boyer captained the football team, and had many other members of the chapter in the starting lineup with him. In the intramural leagues, the Phi Tau teams were also very successful. Paul Nielsen was elected to the presidency of the Student Board of Governors, bringing more honor to the chapter. Socially, the highlights were the Founder ' s Day dance at the Pine Room of Oglebay Park and the Novelty Dance in the Spring. 50 Campaign pic ure. The liberal arts. Fifty-dollar iine.

Other activities included the famous Bowery Brawl , and the Spring Formal. Chuck Zilich was Commander, and was succeeded by Skip Bushon. CHUCK ZILICH President First Row, left to right: S. Bushon, F.

Alpha Xi Delta Delta of Alpha Xi Delta, under the leadership of Mary Jane Gast, who now compares with F.D.R. insofar as length of service is regarded, had a year of many triumphs. The proudest single event was the acquisi- tion of the scholarship cup during the first semester, followed by the tragedy of its subsequent loss the following semester. An excellent pledge class, with Carol Kimball as president, did much to make 1955 an outstanding year for the Alpha Xi ' s.

Student Board of Governors By far the most important campus organiza- tion, the Student Board of Governors strives to be representative of each Bethanian, and has had much success in pursuit of that goal. During this school year, the Board proved in many instances its jealous guard- ing of its position as an independent spokes- man for the student body. The Board ' s polite expulsion of Dean McAllister from a meeting early this year was at least the colorful highlight of the year ' s activities.

It is the duty of its members to plan and execute the weekly dances, parties and the like, which go under the heading of all-college events . Each year the com- mittee is criticized for various programs, and this is most unfortunate since anyone who has served with the group will realize the difficulty of planning a good program on a very limited budget. Hank Prehodka served as chairman of the group, with Sylvia Kundig as secretary. Student Board of Publications This group, composed of editors, past editors and business managers of various campus publications, plus SBOG representatives, is responsible for selecting students for major editorial positions on the Bethanian, Handbook and Tower.

The Tower Bethany ' s voice , the Tower, is a four-page, six-column newspaper, published every Fri- doy of the school year — exam weeks ex- cepted. In addition to an expanded circula- tion, the Tower began this year with ex- panded office facilities, moving from Old Main to a suite of rooms in Barracks Four. From here, production was carried on under the direction of Editor Pat Close, ably assisted by News Editors Ann Cochran and Deone Howard, Features Editor Beckie Old- ham, Sports Editor Kirk Avery, Business Manager Robert Hettler, and Circulation Manager Helen Hay.

Very few members of the staff really enjoyed the work, and it is to their credit that they carried out the drab but necessary details that go into the making of a yearbook. It is not very amusing to pound miles of pavement in search for ads, or to type hundreds of letters, and these efforts gain no prestige or reward, except the sin- cere gratitude of the editor and business manager. The 1955 Bethanian is deeply indebted to these people, and especially indebted to Sylvia Kundig, the Assistant Editor who bore an enormous amount of the work and to Businesss Manager Nick Linn, who did the work of ten editors.

International Relations Club The International Relations Club had many interesting discussions during this year of great tension in world affairs. Naturally, their main area of discussion centered around the islan d of Formosa. Future Teachers of America The Future Teachers of Ameri- ca is a name which needs no explanation. Its main func- tion is to arouse the greatest possible interest from its mem- bers in the direction of their prospective careers in teach- ing. 72 First Row, left to right: Miss Mathison, C.

Our impressive Male Chorus, Bethany ' s best P.R. medium, gained recognition and ap- plause from the Ohio Valley television fans in several appearances before their success- ful tour of the Eastern churches and high schools. The college has probably made more friends through the efforts of these men than through any other means. Bethany is indeed proud and fortunate to sponsor this group. OFFICERS D. Richmond, D.

Cap- tained by the aforementioned Kuby, the team stalwarts were Herb Stein and Ira Marks. Bob, the hairiest member pictured above, has recently been dropped from the squad after being beaten by Dennis in two out of three matches. The Band Left to right: H. Stein, K. Tabari, D.

The band ' s most memorable achievement this year was its rendition of the new Bethany Fight Song which replaced the high school style imitation of On, Wisconsin . Written by Director of Admissions Gerry Guild, the song was introduced by the band at a Fall pep rally, and played each time Bethany scored a touchdown. It is hoped that in the future, it will be played more often. Indoor activities included a winter and spring concert, and, according to the college calendar, weekly re- hearsals. Mr. Gatozzi, in two years, has proven to be a very able and extremely popular director. 78 Chemistry Club With Mary Jane Gast as president, the Chemistry Club had an interesting and stimulating year.

The main purpose of the Economics Club is to get people from industry to speak on topics which interest the group and are re- lated to the field of economics. These pro- grams are planned by the executive com- mittee which was led this year by Mac Macolino. Dr. Kyler and Mr. Conklin are the faculty advisors. The group has heard speakers from the Social Security Office and the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company. These meetings are always well attended by stu- dents who are interested in some segment of economic s and also by those who have no idea what economics is. The biggest event of the year is the annual formal banquet which is held at the end of March. The banquet is unique in that it is strictly formal. The speaker this year was Representative Robert Mollahan who was well received by the group.

This is the first year in which the college employ- ees in the Bethany House, Phillips Hall and the Library have been included in the Bethanian. The reason for doing this is obvious, since these students are much more active than members of most of the clubs pic- tured in this section. The Phillips Hall staff is natural- ly co-educational, and has caused a great deal of general comment for being a closely-knit, friendly group. Les Sechler is the man in charge.

With the exception of occasional suspensions for sleeping through breakfast, the staff remains the same at every table for each meal. Dish room crew, left to right: F. Carr, P. Wagner, G.

Coach John Knight, who handled football for the second consecutive year after an eight year lay off, was greeted by thirty-five candidates for the opening practice session on September 9. Although the backfield was intact from the preceding season, with John Palafoutas at quarterback; Archie Pollock at right half; Bob Boyer at left half, and Fuzzy Karr at full, a major rebuilding job was necessary for the line. Action in the Grove City game. MMMS Spenski gefs stopped. The Bethany squad made its record appear more impressive by scoring a total of 1 1 3 points for the season against the combined opponent score of 122. Only four men will be missing from the squad next year, and all four are backs; Boyer, Orlando, Pala- foutas and Pollock. Freshman center Ron Whitt and tackle Lee Irvine, combined v ith returning lettermen Clyde George, Jack Mox, Harry Caldwell, Gerry Frederickson and Ken Richardson gave Bethany a hard-fighting, improving line. To- ward the end of the season four of the starting linemen were freshmen, while the other three were juniors, a situation which may make for a hopeful future. Next season, several good replacements will be available. Sophomore Dick Lash, who has been out for two seasons with broken shoulder bones, hopes to be more fortunate next season. Freshman Augie Losso is ex- pected to enter the quarterback slot, while the aggressive and spirited Fuzzy Karr will continue to be the fine full-back he has been for the past two years. The line will find all veterans, including Gerry Frederickson, who achieved All-District honors, and freshman aspirants will find it difficult to unseat any of them. Irvine, George and LeVine make 52 wish he ' d been born a beautiful woman. t-,- ,va S V Ajir 5-™ fuTHA . Fronf Row, left  o right A. Lenz, R. Daly, D. Blakeley, B. Heftier, R. Yaksich, D. Lash, J.

El Basketball Despite the high pre-season hopes based on the fine showing of freshmen Rudy Yaksich, John Roytos, and Augie Losso, the Bisons suffered through an unsuccessful basketball season, winning but five of twenty-three con- tests and rarely performing to their fullest potential. Senior lettermen John Palafoutos and Bob Hettler teamed with sophomore Ed Johnson and the talented freshman trio to form what appeared to be a smooth working combina- tion, with Dick Lash serving as a capable replacement. Despite a fine showing against Alderson- Broaddus and flashes of fine teamwork in their early contests the Green dropped six in a row before finally breaking into the 93 win column against Fairmont. Three nights later the Bisons played what was undoubtedly their best boll of the year in upsetting Ohio Northern, unbeaten in seven starts, by a 71 to 69 count. A win over Grove City kept hopes temporarily high but the four straight setbacks that followed chilled even the staunchest fans. Bethany managed only two more victories in their eight remaining regular Continued on page 94 JUNIOR VARSITY, left to right. R. Daly, A. Lenz, Coach Zucchelli, J. Wratten, D. Blakeley, R. McCloin.

Despite Rudy Yaksich ' s fine individual performance the Green bowed out in the first round of the state tourney, losing by an eight point margin to Potomac State. Bob Heftier wound up his college career by leading the individual scoring parade with 334 points, trailed by Johnson (301), and Yaksich (290). Roytos, Losso, and Palafoutas rounded out the regulars in that order. A one word description of the season would have to be disappointing. The Bisons played some very capable halves, but rarely were they able to combine two in one game. Hettler reaches for a rebound. Palafouias at the foul line. Mulligan gets set to pass off.

Baseball At this writing, it is impossible to guess the outcome of the baseball season, but the team looks good with impressive showing in practice. Dick Kiefer has proven to be a home run hitter, and Fuzzy Carr, the catcher- third baseman looks as if he will finish the season with a very high average. A new backstop added a bit of class to the general appearance of the field and is greatly appreciated by the team and fans. Veterans Haupt, Kiefer, Carr, Mulligan, Homer and Lash are expected to help a lot this season, aided by newcomer Losso and a few other rookies. Luke Johnson appears to be the number one pitcher, with much expected from Blokeley. 96 Sen or members of the squad, Carr, Haupt, Mulli- gan and Kiefer.

Track The track season was not underway as this book went to press, and it is therefore impossible to give a resume of the season. Coach Hill had a number of veterans out at the beginning of the season. Chin, Boyer, Downes, Baker, Nuebert, Linn, McKee and others were expected to help make a suc- cessful season for the Bisons. Freshmen like Fields, Rehm and Zinter were also expected to help greatly. 98 Coach Hill and if some of his hopes for the future. Senior members of the squad, McKee, Chin, Boyer and Linn.

With four letter men holding over from the 1954 squad and two fast developing freshman additions, the 1955 tennis team promises to be the strongest ever to represent Bethany in this intercollegiate sport. After dropping the opener to Ohio Northern University 4-3, the Bisons posted a record tieing seven straight victories over Bluffton, Salem, Hiram, W J, California, Fairmont and O.N.U. (return match). Five matches remain to com- plete the schedule including two with West Virginia University and return contests with Fairmont, California and W. J., and if the team maintains its present form, a new win- ning record appears certain. Veteran Bruce Robeson has scored eight con- secutive victories in the No. 1 spot and has re- ceived strong support from Robert Syme, James Breen, Stephen Sermon and the two Freshmen, James Davis and Bruce Bear.

Intramurals Fraternity rivalry at Bethany finds its way to the play- ing fields, where the rivals can utilize excess energy while attempting to attain athletic supremacy for the chapter. This season the Sigs won the football cham- pionship in a strong, if unorthodox league. In basket- ball. Beta Theta Pi finished in first place in a very tight race, with a surprising KA team as the spoiler in many instances. Another strong team was the Oglebay Aggies who, despite age and fast living managed to remain a contender during most of the season. At this writing, the softball season has not yet begun, and in the wild and woolly intramural leagues, it is impossible to hazard a prediction regarding the ultimate winner.

Captain JANE CHARLTON Cheerleaders 102 The cheerleaders deserve so much credit that any words of praise seem insufficient. Their wonderful ability and continued en- thusiasm has been taken for granted for so long that few realize how much they do for our teams. It ' s rather difficult to cheer for two hours or more on a cold afternoon, yet these girls do it every week in the Fall, and often in front of a listless crowd. Jane Charlton worked very hard as captain and deserves the appreciation of the college for the fine results she achieved with her her squad. Kneeling, left to right: M. John, D. Botes, F. Phillips.

Big Bull Bales Moo Moo Moo What ' s been said for the Cheerleaders can be repeated for the Ancient and Honor- able Moos. A unique organization, the Moos are the antithesis of any other collegiate group of male cheerleaders. They are not merely cheerleaders, but also s howmen extraordinary, and satirists of no mean ability. Their tendency to mimic the cheerleaders, bands and fans of oppo- nents have outraged those without much sense of humor and amused the more intelligent. Big Bull Bates led the pack, and deserves a great deal of applause for the antics of his boys. CAMPUS LIFE 104 Clew Ask any Bethanian to name the finest religious experience he ' s had in college, and the answer will invariably be CLEW.

Some may think it ' s the excitement of going home, others may say it ' s merely the age-old Christmas spirit that comes over everyone everyv here. Bethanians v ho have spent tv o or more years at the college, hov ever, realize that there is really something special about the few weeks before Christmas Vacation here that would be hard to duplicate anywhere else. At Christmas, we become the family that we try to be during the rest of the year. Faculty and students take on a consideration for each other that can ' t be realized by an out- sider. The night before vacation, of course, is the best of all nights in the school year. While we have pictured the events of that night on this page, it is impossible to recreate the feeling that encompasses the participants. We hope that we have achieved through words what is difficult, in this instance to do in pictures. Faculty and students enjoy a hearty Christmas dinner.

AND THEN SOME He went on: I discovered at an early age that most of the difference between average people and top people could be ex- plained in three words. The top people did what was expected of them — and then some. They were thoughtful of others; they were considerate and kind — and then some. They met all their obligations and responsibilities fairly and squarely — and then some. They were good to their friends — and then some. They could be counted on in an emergency — and then some.
