Foreword All the ivorld ' s a stage . . . This statement can easily be applied to our years of formal schooling. Bethany College has been the stage and setting of events for 122 years, since 1840, 22 years before West Virginia ' s charter. The times have changed, the direction is in different hands, and the cast has been altered. Although the script has been revised and improved, the main theme of a dis- tinctively good liberal arts education has remained undamaged. Open the curtain on the 1962-63 pro- duction of Bethany College. It contains a few laughs, some tears, several fond memories, and forgotten promises. A poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage . . . ;w.i t Ori h ..

RmHM BffiBriSHl T « Producers and Directors — 10 The Times — 62 The Play — 162 Mr. John J. Knight Dedication ( i :d X Give me sixty minutes of hard football, is a phrase well-known to Coach Knight ' s players. The emphasis is not so much on winning, but rather on maximum indi- vidual effort and sportsmanship. By daily exemplifying these high ideals, Mr. Knight has inspired athletes to strive for more noble ends. Coming to Bethany in 1930 after receiving his A.B. degree at West Virginia Wesleyan and his A.M. degree at Ohio State University, Coach Knight has directed foot- ball, baseball, basketball, and golf teams to success. He is a past president of the National Association of Inter- collegiate Athletics, which represents about 460 college and universities around the nation, and he has been picked by the Pittsburgh Press as the Ohio Valley Coach jf the Year. After leading the 1962 football Bisons to a second place finish in the President ' s Athletic Conference, Coach Knight announced his retirement from football coaching ifter 29 years of service. He will devote the remaining oortion of his time to the physical education department and his responsibilities as Athletic Director. Therefore, with appreciation and pride, the class of 1963 dedicates this Bethanian to Mr. John J. Knight, whose conscientious efforts to develop the complete ath- lete have been an inspiration to both players and students alike. President of the Student Board of Governors, Nick Sarap, presents a plaque to Coach Knight which reads: To Coach John J. Knight, one of America ' s great coaches, for his leadership and continuous effort on the athletic fields of Bethany. PRODUCERS AND DIRECTORS r Without sound backing and special direction no play will succeed, and even the best planned ones fail. Bethany is justifiably proud of its effective administration and its excellent faculty. Each one deserves his own curtain call and grateful thanks from an enlightened cast. Dr. Perry Epler Gresham, President Dr. Perry Epler Gresham is completing his tenth year at Bethany amid the college ' s greatest period of physical growth and achievement of academic excel- lence.

The sororities, although not vying for any trophies, each did a superb job with their two song selections.

Inter-Fraternity Council The Inter-Fraternity Council, composed of the presi- dents of Bethany ' s five national fraternities, works to maintain harmonious relations among the organiza- tions. It governs all inter-fraternity business, and sees that established rush rules are not flagrantly violated. Highlights of this year ' s I.F.C. activities were the ALL Greek Dance, held during rush, and the co- ordination of Mother ' s Day Week-End in May. The president is selected on a rotation basis with the new officer assuming his position at the beginning of the second semester. This year the council has petitioned for earlier rush dates and less restrictions on rushing procedures. Mr. Joseph Kurey.

Innovations included a floating head, modern layout, and improved copy. SANDY BLISS, Tower Editor-in-Chief 142 BILL MOYER, Copy Editor DAVE PERELLE, Sports Editor o Improve Student Publications, a three-credit hour journalism course, was offered to persons with a desire to work on the Tower.

It is an attempt by its editors to reproduce accurately events that have occurred within the past school year. In truth, this Bethanian is not too different from books of previous years. There are no startling changes or added pages for the sheer sake of bigness. The pride of this book is in its honest reporting. It is not a flowery, double-talk, soft-soap type of writ- ing. There has been no conscious effort by its authors to offer excuses for failures or apologies for mistakes. Editor-in-Chief, BRENT P. WENTZ 144 Sports Writers, BRUCE KEENAN and TOM LEWIS Features Editor, RUTH CAINE f a Few Thanks should be extended to Mr. James W. Carty. r.. Director of Publications. Without Mr. Carty ' s help nd encouragement, this publication might never have isted the press ' ink. A word of gratitude also to Mr. Bill Ruschel. our rofessional photographer, and the faculty and the dministration for their unwavering support. Individuals will criticize the 1963 Bethanian because f a misspelled word, a left-out name, or an incorrect ict. But these critics might justly be attacked for not nswering the anguished pleas for help shrieked by le Bethanian ' s tiny staff of seven.

Bethany threw a scare into perennial powerhouse West Virginia University on May 6 when the Moun- taineers had to overcome their cockiness to squeek a 4-1 victory. W.V.U. ' s record at that time was 23-1. Freshman Peter Weber was the pitching workhorse for Bethany and was credited with four wins and five losses. Charlie Coss earned the other two victories in relief. Dick Stuck led the team in hitting with a .333 average, and Buddy Mauger finished second with .300. Senior Captain Jim Compagnone added the needed moral support to the squad.
