Bethany College - Bethanian Yearbook (Bethany, WV)

Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1984 volume:

The Bethanian 1984 Bethany College Bethany, WV 26032 Vol. LXXXllX We invite you to look througil our prism and see tlie different angles of Bethany in 1984 . . . Celebrate Good Times Familiar tunes can be heard througii the outside walls of the fraternity houses, sorority houses, or dorms as people in- side rock with the music. Beer-pong, pool, quarters. Prince of Wales — all of these games are a part of the Bethany weekend. Live through one weekend at Bethany College and see the light through our prism refracted in yet an- other direction. Where are the cups? Are there any cups left? People at Bethany love to party . Get the music going, the kegs tapped, and the whole campus will show up at your doorstep. Buck for a keg? The dollar bills are collected so another trip can be made to ' Joe ' s ' for that special party. The uniqueness of Bethany is reflected through the various social functions which are thrown throughout the year. How many people can experience a Goldfish Party, Bowry Brawl, Perry Gresham Day, or a Fall Ball? Bethany is special in that we are small. We are so- cial people who love to make and create our own fun. Sometimes there ' s a week- end or a Saturday night when Bubba ' s seems too crowded, or when one just doesn ' t feel like getting the Bubba ' s scent on their clothing. At times a quiet evening at home is spent in front of the Movie Channel or doing some of that long overdue laundry. Whatever your choice may be — just live it. Live one weekend in Bethany and experience . . . — RLH The atmosphere of Bethany lends to itself a character all its own. Many stu- dents are drawn to Bethany, and eventu- ally these students will leave. But with them they will take an angle of Bethany which has been so much a part of their lives. Each person will always remember those special places on Main Street. ■ Along this path stands the stores and landmarks which are so particular to Bethany. As I have walked numerous times down this heavily trodden path, the re- flections of old and new have been visi- ble through the character of each of these places. The simple white brick infirmary was quite the commonplace during many of the Bethany plagues. I can still see the bright caring faces of those ladies in white as they gave the small envelopes filled with medications and cough drops to our ailing students. I remember the old red brick house — the Delta Tau Delta founder ' s house, which has represented pride and unity since founding chapter in Bethany in 1858. On various occasions this house comes to life with wine and cheese re- ceptions which set the proper mode. Securely nestled across the street are Chambers ' and Ethel ' s, the two general stores. I recall walking past the neatly stacked shelves in Chambers ' to the meat counter in the back where I bought sausage-links for those many late break- fasts. 1 retrace my steps back through the quaint country store to the cash reg- ister, where Mrs. Chambers patiently awaits my purchase. Mext door I find the simple but inviting competition to Chambers, commonly known as Ethel ' s. In Ethel ' s I have often fumbled through the various piles on the floor, looking for a specific brand of soup or soda-pop. Once my prize was located, I mosey back to the cash register where Ethel awaits, and I place my goods and money on the old freezer. On the opposite side of the street mu- sic plays; a red door opens and closes as people enter and exit. I walk toward the building. I can see cigarette smoke seep- ing through the door. The smell of cheese cubes and other cooked snacks tantalize my taste buds as my throat longs for a cool beer. There will always be memories of the enjoyable nights spent at Bubba ' s. I can walk toward the post office for my daily visit. With anticipation, I reach into my pocket for my key, open that little glass door to my box, only to find a Green Tab! Others leave the post office hoping that tomorrow they ' ll get more than just air mail. Now I retrace my steps, past Bubba ' s, Chambers ' and Ethel ' s, the Delts ' founder ' s house, and the infirmary. I stand in front of the Bethany Memorial Church, a home for the Disciples of Christ, who have supported the Bethany tradition since the college was founded. I see the stain glass windows as a prism; a rainbow of colors reflecting the chang- ing spectrum of our town throughout the years. The Refraction Of Academia Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep and I reach to push the sleep but- ton on my alarm clock, roll over and doze a few more minutes before I get out of bed, only to start another day of classes. Research papers, labs, study- sessions, exams. It ' s a never-ending cy- cle, but it ' s all part of the life of a college student. Academics are a strong refraction from the prism of Bethany. Students can often be found reading under a tree, re- viewing notes in the barn, or studying — (or falling asleep?) in Renner Union. All hours of the day and night there is al- ways somebody somewhere working to- ward that ' A. ' Academics at Bethany mean more than just studying by yourself, however. Rather, the students learn from one an- other, sharing ideas and encouraging creativity. Yet the uniqueness of Beth- any extends even further; students not only learn through interaction with peers, but also with teachers outside of the classroom. This promotes a true learning environment. Bethany College is an institution of higher learning, and quality in academ- ics is a bright shade in the refraction from the prism. — KLT i x % m I Who is Mrs. Aladdin? Who is Mrs. Aladdin anyway? Her name is quite popular among Bethany students, and she is the common subject during light dinner conversation at Benedum Commons. I ' ve never met her before, though I ' ve been at Bethany for four years. I would like to take this mo- ment (as I ' m sure my friends and col- leagues would agree) to commend her on the delectable menu which she has to offer for her guests. It ' s obvious to me that Mrs. Aladdin is a smart business woman. She has man- aged to gain a monopoly over the entire Bethany College Community. At Beth- any there are four places in which one may go out to dinner. They include: The ' Commons ' , which provides the fol- lowing two facilities — The main dining hall, which specializes in Tuna Tetrazzini and Chicken Patties; and, the private dining rooms where only the chosen people may eat the stuffed flounder or roast beef prepared by a gourmet chef. The Barn, located underneath Benedom Commons, provides a variety of ' burg- ers ' ranging from the famous Bison Burger to an English Sunrise. Bethany ' s newest restaurant, Harder Hall, is for the Bethany elite, and if you don ' t have a car or live at Alpha Sig, be prepared to wear your hiking boots. All of these dining areas are run by this Mrs. Aladdin. The only way out of her grasp is to visit Mr. Bubba. But who is Mr. Bubba?! — RLH Foundations , of Bethany Prisms: angles-color. Bethany is an inter- locking network of people, faces, and histo- ry which holds a special place in the hearts of all those who are connected with this home in the woods. The frames which hold the many build- ings together are prisms which contain in them the history of Old Bethany. If these frames could talk, what stories they could tell. The sound of voices, the sight of peo- ple. Those happy smiling faces. Friend- ships. The spectrum is wide when we look at the various paths, views and backgrounds from which each individual from Bethany has come. Our network of people and back- grounds is what makes Bethany so unique. This uniqueness extends to the architec- ture of its buildings. These frames hold within them the personality of the entire college community, for the strength of their architecture is a reflection of the strength of our student body. Bethany College Presents . . . The Dramatic Arts Where ' s the eyeliner? I need more base. Do you know where my tie is? Testing Testing 1-2-3 Testing. I forgot my line! Get that set in place! Gp the ladder. Watch out for the cord! Curtains open in 10 minutes. Susan ' s not here yet? Where is she? Too much light. I need a drink to get rid of this cotton mouth. Where IS Susan? My stomach hurts. Turn the mics down a little bit. Where did I put my other costume? Cur- tain opens in 7. Is there a large crowd? Yes, it ' s a full house. Oh no, I think my stomach hurts even worse now. Did I put on my deodorant? I wonder if my mom ' s here yet. Curtain in 2. Break a leg! And the curtain rises to introduce yet another stunning performance by the Bethany Theatre Department. Bethanians may not realize how fortu- nate they are to be exposed to such su- perb talent in the arts. Directed by Dr. Judy, this group has proven itself to be outstanding entertainers and artists in the community. Their productions for the year included Fantasticks, The Men- aechmi, The Comdey of Errors, Leaving, and The Laurel Mantis which was written and directed by Beth- anian Scott Luckhardt. The second semester brought a series of one-act plays. The first, presented as A Night of One- Acts, consisted of The Lost Kiss, directed by Francesca El- ston and The American Dream direct- ed by Paul Kingman. The second was presented in conjunction with Alpha Psi Omega ' s Dinner Theatre and included The Bear directed by Rory Scultz, A Good time directed by Peter Fitzkee, and Infancy directed by Randy Bailey. They concluded their season with the hilarious musical A Funny Thing Hap- pened On The Way To The Forum. It was a great year for the Bethany College Theatre Department. Congratulations are in order to this fine department for offering yet another colorful angle to the Bethany Prism. — KLT, RLH 12 Homecoming ' 83 A cold, rainy day marked Homecom- ing 1983, but that didn ' t stop Betlianians from partying. Tiiey just put up their umbrellas and had a blast! The band. Three Dog Night, officially started the festive weekend on Friday night when they played their classic tunes in the fieldhouse. On Saturday, many loyal fans consist- ing of not only students, but alumni and administrators as well, braved the down- pours of rain to watch the Bisons give 1 ranked CMC a fight that promoted one local newspaper to liken the game to a Rocky movie. The muddy battlefield was cleared at half-time and the five beautiful Queen candidates walked with their escorts onto the field. Tension mounted as the inevitable delays occurred. Finally, how- ever, the winner was announced; Donna Jean Vorhees was crowned 1983 Home- coming Queen. Expressing their joy, the crowd began to chant Donna Jean, she ' s our queen. Yet nobody could for- get about the lovely court which includ- ed (left to right) Jennifer Popps, Sue Ger- mano, Jennifer Smith, and Elizabeth Warren. Many agreed that it was difficult to choose only one queen, for it was the best court they had seen in years. Saturday night was the time for many private parties before the dance. But when the band Crossover began playing top 40 hits in Benedum Commons, peo- ple flocked to the dance floor. Many hap- py faces, dancing feet, and thirsty peo- ple crowded the Commons. Even some alumni joined in the fun as they celebrat- ed the reunion with their Bethany bud- dies. This was the night that sneakers and bandanas were pushed aside as women dressed in chic attire and men in three piece suits, adding a new dimen- sion to the Bethany scene. Slowly but surely, couples and friends wandered off in the rain, some to more parties and others to sleep, but all with the memory of Homecoming ' 83. r _n : r J y |p H g| 14 Work That Body . . . The fitness craze has hit the campus and put many Bethanians in sweatpants and sneakers. Yes, they ' re exercising all over campus now. I think it ' s the year to get in shape. Good health is very valuable, especially to the college students of today. Many girls gather daily to work off that extra icecream cone they ate for lunch. How do they do it? Joanie Greggains or Jane Fonda ' s Shape- Gp Tape that tells them You grew it, you lift it. Often men and women can be found in the fieldhouse pumping iron and building muscles. Many students play sports year round to keep their bodies physically fit. Still others choose jogging. Early morning jogs, late-night jogs, or even mid-day jogs, it ' s all the same — refreshing! Many jog while listening to music with their walk- man radio ' s. Then, of course, there are the rest of us who simply rely on walking up and down the hills of Bethany. Actually, that should be enough to keep anyone in shape! — KLT 16 17 It - c , y w v y i vV . jpecial Events • j% Live from Bethany . . . Hands were clapping to the beat. Mouths were singing to the music. Bodies were rocking to the rhythm. Lights from the band were flashing. The fieldhouse was packed. People were perspiring. The crowd was wild. And Three Dog Night continued to play. It was Friday night and it was Homecoming weekend. Renner Union Program Board opened the year with an all-time favorite band. What a way to start the year! During the next eight months, Bethan- ians were also entertained by the rek- nowned Alvin Alley Reportory Ensemble, a dance company. They also enjoyed the country tunes of David Bromberg.

Rather, they were entertained at the barn which often rocked with bands like The Other Brothers. Oh! And who can forget those emotion- al Ricky Perlman concerts? Need I say more? — KLT 21 22 Student Activities During the course of the year Bethany students were involved in a host of activi- ties which are traditional to Bethany or are sure to become so. The success of the Blood Drive and Town Clean-up shows that the students care about their community. The Fund Run was a new idea this year, sponsered by Beta Theta Pi Fraternity. Stu- dents paid an entrance fee and then ran the mileandahalf course through town to raise money for Saturday School, another col- lege sponsored activity which gives college students a chance to interact with children from the surrounding area. Oktoberfest is fall tradition which is pure fun for all. Also, a pumpkin carving contest was held this year. This contest, like the other activities, is sure to become a tradition and is just another dimension in Bethany ' s prism. — JMS special Olympics What a difference you ' ve made in my life. Although the rain poured outside, the sun shined inside the hearts of many mentally retarded and physically handi- capped people. Special Olympics 1984 brought tears of joy and smiles of ac- complishment to both the participants and their Bethany counterparts. It was Thursday, April 19th at the Alumni Fieldhouse when over 100 Beth- any students volunteered their time and energy to bring happiness to those spe- cial people. Bethanians chaperoned par- ticipants, organized the events, and gave out awards. At the end of the day every- one walked away with some kind of re- ward. — KLT 24 T -.-r i g The hill rocks again! On Saturday morning, April 21st, the day before Easter, sunsliine brol e through the clouds that had been hovering over Beth- any for weeks. Finally Bethanlans were able to enjoy springtime. It was a time to be outside, playing fris- bee, listening to some good tunes, and spending time with special friends. Spring- time at Bethany spells BLOCK PARTY. This is a day traditionally set aside for the houses on the hill to host their annual out- side party. And party we did with live bands, plenty of food, and more than enough to drink. Here ' s to the tradition. Cheers! — RLH, KLT 26 Bid Day 1 984 Another bright reflection from th e prism of Bethany is the Greek System. And the Greek System would be nothing without Bid Day. The day was February 3rd, 1984. The weather was cold, rainy and muddy. The people were anxious. The time was 4:30 p.m. And it was BID DAY! A day of cele- bration which marks the end of a long week of formal rush, but the beginning of new bonds of friendship. The men were informed Thursday night of where they would be pledging, but they still met in Richardson on Fri- day. They came out of the building to- gether as a pledge class and were greet- ed by their new brothers who were dressed in super funky attire. They ran back to their houses, throwing one an- other in the mud. Then they began cele- brating. Welcome to the fraternal world! The women waited in anxiety until Fri- day at 4 :30. Ms. Nicholson distributed the bids in Wailes Theatre this year. When the girls received their bids, they opened them up, then ran into the arms of their new sisters. After everyone had come out of Wailes, there was a mad rush up the hill where more girls impa- tiently waited to greet their sisters. Kegs were tapped, chants were sung, tears were shed, bonds were formed, and hugs were given. It was celebration time. Although Bid Day is a special day for the greeks, the independents consider it a fun day too. Every year they look for- ward to joining the fun and hosting a huge party for everyone at Campbell. And the celebration continues for ev- eryone through morning. — KLT 27 Challenger: Ride, Sally Ride And so Sally Ride did, becoming the first American woman to fly into space as she astronauts aboard the t couple of satellites ran scientific experi- Tthe robot arm a flexing.

There was a holy war in the Persian Gulf, an American surprise retreat from Beirut, and a diminishing of Soviet relations. Americans saw the first woman fly in space, the beginning of AT T, and the Raiders win the Su- perbowl.

Snow was coming down in buckets and the excitement was grow- ing among Bethany students. Could this mean that tomorrow would be Snow Car- nival? Bethanians went to bed that night dreaming about Snow Carnival tradi- tions: a day off of school to engage in snow ball fights and tray sleigh rides down Bullard ' shill. Excitement filled the air at 7 a.m. Wednesday, February 29th, when the administration declared a StSOW CAR- NIVAL! You ask what is Snow Carnival? It is a day when all of Bethany pitches their books to the far corner of their rooms, sleeps late, and enjoys the snow. S.B.O.G. plans activities starting out with snow sculptures then moving along to tugawar, ending the day with a Snow Ball dance. At lunch there are cups on a table with King and Queen representa- tives names from each housing unit. The ones who collect the most money wins the title of Snow Carnival king and queen. Wow how exciting! The proceeds of $170 went to Multiple Sclerosis. Prizes were awarded after this ex- hausting day of total fun. The Phi Tau ' s won first place in the snow sculpture with Snoopy ' s Doghouse, second place went to McDiarmid and their Rapunzel and her long, snowy hair, and third was captured by Goodnight ' s outdoor snow toilet. Now we move along to the Snow Ball, where Laurie Celona and Jim Pocas were crowned Snow Ball king and queen. This year ' s Snow Carnival was truly a successful day. All the cheering, laugh- ing, and smiling heard and seen was a treat for everyone. 31 Outstanding Bethanians Kathleen L. Taylor, Outstanding Junior Woman, Susan G. Martinez, Outstanding Senior, Richard J. Sage, Outstanding Junior Man Each year the Faculty Honors Commit- tee selects three outstanding Bethanians, two juniors and one senior. These awards are based on the student ' s service to the college, knowledge in his or her field, and overall excellence. At Honors Convocation, April 12, these Bethanians were honored with their awards. Afterward there was a tea at Pend- leton Heights which was followed by a ban- quet in Benedum Commons. Perry Gresh- am, President Emeritus, was the featured speaker at the banquet. — TLK 32 May Morning Breakfast As spring time came, so did the annual May Morning Breai fast. A day when all female Bethanians are invited to honor sen- ior women. It was a day when the seniors reflected upon their past four years at Beth- any and were given advice about their fu- ture by speaker Zoila Airall. Lisa Krady and Bonnie Lorber sang for the women. — KLT J) , - V May the road rise up to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face the rain fall softly on your fields And until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of His hand. — An Old Irish Proverb 33 Merry Perry! It ' s Pe-rry Gresham Day, It ' s Perry Gresham Day . . .! Shouts, screams, laughter, the sounds of horns, people wearing funny clothes. Clothes which definitely seem to stand out in a crowd. And the smiles — Oh those ecstatic looking smiles which extend from ear to ear! Crazy people? No, these people are not crazy they are just charged up to salute to and march with Perry Gresham, our former Bethany President, and his wife Elise. Down main street, parade participants dance after the select convertibles — one carries the Most Honorable, and the other carries the two chosen queens: Lisa Hodg- son and Barb Tatz. At the end of the parade. Perry and Elise alight from their blue chari- ot so Perry may warm the hearts of his followers with a light humored little speech. .N ; iltfl 34 All day long people can be heard singing the song which has evolved to promote this day of good cheer. Singing later is muffled by the sound of more people. And more people. And more people. People who are students ready to join in the celebration of Perry Gresham Day. The celebration is ex- tended to include all of the Bethany College community, which makes for a very festive party at the traditional spot. . . . And so the fiesta continues into the night . . . HAIL TO KIMG PERRY!!! — RLH 35 J ' -u- ' i ' cr .3 Administration Todd H. Bullard, President Robert A. Sandercox, Vice President and Provost for College Advancement Wm. Daniel Cobb, Dean of Faculty I, Vice President and ( ( Out of almost every graduating class since I ' ve been back here at Bethany, there ' s at least one person to whom 1 still send Christmas cards. Tfiere ' s nothing like learning about Tolstoy and Cervantes while sitting in your professor ' s living room, sipping fresh tea, eating homemade cookies, and petting a cat that is nestled in your lap. Ms. Helen Louise McGuffie, profes- sor of English Emeritus and head of that department, is one of those teachers who makes Bethany so unique. She cre- ates a very informal atmosphere in all of her classes, but she never loses the val- ue of true learning. Ms. McGuffie is a 1936 graduate of Bethany College. She then went on to the Gniv. of Pitt, where she earned an M.A. in English. Her first jobs were as elementary and high school teachers. In 1944 she joined the Coast Guard. This was an experience that she loved very much. Then, while still a part of the Coast Guard Reserves, she went to Co- lumbia University to earn a PhD. In 1948 she returned to Bethany as a professor of English, and she has been with us ever since. One only needs to see the smile on Ms. McGuffie ' s face to see that she is very happy here. Why does she like Bethany 38 John Cunningham, Dean of Students Beth Danneier, Associate Director of Financial Aid and Coordinator of F.A.S. John C. Geismann, Director of Housing and Registrar Barbara Guthrie-Morse, Dean of the Leadership Center Joseph M. Kurey, Associate Business Officer Darlene B. Nicholson, Associate Dean of Students and Director of Renner Union Christine Ossman, Assistant Dean of Students Robert O. Seidewitz, Treasurer and Chief Business Officer Ruth Westlake, Director of Public Information and Publications  o much? She answers, because in a )lace as small as this, it is possible to ;now who the students are. The people lere at Bethany are an integral part of ' As. McGuffie ' s life. Living and teaching n Bethany is a good way for a single ivoman to have lots of friends of all iiges, she said. As a matter of fact, out of almost every graduating class since j ' ve been back here at Bethany, there ' s lit least one person to whom I still send phristmas cards. Among her students |iere at Bethany were Todd Bollard, Bon- jiie Thurston, Robert Sandercox, and arry Grimes and his wife. Ms. McGuffie has seen Bethany grow. he remembers when there was no Point Breeze Drive or Logan ' s Court. At that time all of the professors lived in the town. She used to love it when students would walk by her house, see the light on, and drop by to chat awhile. Anyone who has ever known Ms. McGuffie knows about her love for cats. Pictures of all kinds of cats decorate her office, and a cat mobile hangs from the ceiling. In her home she can often be found playing and talking with her two cats, Thomas Gray and Katie Katt. My house would be empty without my cats, she said. Another love of her life is Samuel Johnson, the 18th century critic and lexicographer whom she has been study- ing for years. She has written a book titled Samuel Johnson in the British Press 1749-1784, and is currently work- ing on another book about him. Also contributing to Ms. McGuffie ' s diverse character is her love of travel, theatre and books. She is a very interest- ing woman, one with whom one can sit and talk for hours and never be bored. Although she is known as one of the most difficult professors in the English department, she is still loved and highly respected by the students. Her love for life and for the students generates a warmth, without which Bethany would never be the same. — KLT 39 People watching taught Dr. Kenney how to be a good teacher L. F.

Cayard, Foreign Languages 40 How many professors do you know who take a photograph of every class they have? Well, Dr. Richard Kenney, professor of Old Testament Literature and head of the religion department is one of those rare professors. Voted the most popular teacher on campus, Dr. Kenney knows approximately 90 per- cent of the student body who have passed through Bethany in the last twen- ty years. He has taught them in either R.S. 100 or in one of his Interdisciplinary classes. Talk to him and you ' ll find that he knows your name and probably where you ' re from. To Dr. Kenney, the student body is the college and he makes a point to get to know each one of us. Dr. Kenney loves his work, but he also enjoys playing the piano and reading about history. His interest in history is illustrated by his concern with the total- ity of Bethany ' s past and how its es- sence remains strong regardless of the happening in the outside world. Dr. Ken- ney is a well-rounded Bethanian. He can be found participating in events of all kinds including activities with the Disci- ples of Christ Church, the Alumni Asso- ciation, the administration and the stu- dents. Dr. Kenney said that he decided to be a teacher early in his life. He said that teaching was always on my mind. He always viewed his own teachers intent- ly, noting their methods of disseminat- ing ideas and knowledge. As he calls it, people watching taught him how to be a good teacher. Dr. Kenney said that teaching is ideal. There is nothing like being paid for what you like to do with as much discretionary time as you need. Dr. Kenney first heard about Bethany through church publications. He was then offered a job at Bethany in 1964. He became head of the department five years later, a position he still holds. Then, due to several strange circum- stances, Dr. Kenney served as Dean of Faculty from 1975-1977. Dr. Kenney said that Bethany has provided the context and shape of my life. When asked what the future brings, he candidly replied that he does not know. Because his life is centered around the college, he thinks of himself with Bethany. However, he confides that he would never say that he could not teach anywhere else. Dr. Kenney hopes to stay here in Bethany for a long time. but he admits that the nature of life is possible change. There is no doubt that Dr. Kenney has a close relationship with the student body. He served as an advisor to the Beta Theta Pi Fraternity until 1982. Because of this intimate relationship with the stu- dents and his classroom relationship with many students. Dr. Kenney feels that he knows the students pretty well. Dr. Kenney recognizes a few changes in the students in the past twenty years. These changes include women ' s views of themselves, the computer conscious- ness on campus, and a fear of future employment. However, he considers these changes peripheral. A twenty- year-old of today is pretty much like one of twenty years ago. They have the same basic motivations, drives and inter- ests. Young people are young people re- gardless of what era or country they live in, Dr. Kenney said. Dr. Kenney is a dedicated professor. He said that his greatest pleasure is the sense of accomplishment that he feels when students express their apprecia- tion for his sharing of his knowledge. — MT — KLT R. W.

A brief history of the man is in order . . . Dr. Draper received his Bachelor of Science degree from Franklin and Mar- shall College in Lancaster, Pa. He earned his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry at the University of Md. In January of 1951, Dr. Draper was introduced to the Bethany tradition as a liberal arts college profes- sor. Three years later he was appointed Chairman of the Chemistry dept., a title he maintained for 30 years. His involve- ment with the Chemistry and Math De- partments of Bethany can be described rather simply with one word: Dedication. Dr. Draper is very active in the colle- giate field, and outside curricular activi- ties. He is a member of the Honors Com- mittee and the Allied Health Committee. He has done archive research work for the Circus World Museum during his summers, and has published papers on the circus. Dr. Draper also enjoys study- ing Civil War history. Concerning future plans. Dr. Draper and his wife Rosalie plan to travel with the Carson and Barnes Circus. After- wards, they are considering enlistment in the Peace Corps. To recognize Dr. Daniel Draper and the gratification his students have, I need only to relate a story. Dr. Draper was lecturing in a class on the electron, its relative position in the atom and its quanto of energy. After a long and te- dious derivation of equations, he con- cluded that a couple great scientists knew much about the electron before any experimental evidence could prove their theories. All their predictions were correct as the experiments eventually proved years later. Dr. Draper remarked on this incredible parallel between the- ory and experiment, Truth is stronger than fiction. Dr. Draper is a man dedi- cated to learning and teaching the truth. His philosophy is one to be admired. — RMB G. E. Larson, Biology H. J. Lester, Religious Studies J. J.

Upstairs it ' s O.O.S.O.O.M., till you finally have to say, WTF. With the Cool cube, the Cucumber cube, the Ice cube, and on the rocks, there ' s always some rea- son to put on the party hats. The question of Who ' s she with now? resounds, but a peek in the kitchen might set you straight. You say, Whatta Schmuck , but are really just too TXJ.D.D. to care. Monty the mushroom lived and died his allotted span in the Cool Cube rug, but we should have kept him around as a pizza garnish, since we ' re never so glad to see Lynn as Monday nights. Late night Zone action leads to lots of sleeping through classes, but Over- night has gone the way of Jum Morrison, who is Dead And He ' s Never Coming Back. The Spare Room ' s not just for luggage, but Cannzie enjoys having a single. Bug loves a eunuch, but not when there ' s a doctor in the house. The coffee corner warms up the cube, but the furnace still kicks on, since we all can ' t have a Man in a Uniform. We finally got a handle, on the back door at least, so Newman can get in without a key. It ' s a life of indescribable fun, but of course, I.G.W.S. I 53 Row 1: L. Whalen, B. Cuesta, K. Wright.

Prisms . . . Prisms ... Out my ear with Prisms . . . Roll with the changes! What a turn around we ' ve made for the Bethanian. The yearbook has made a comeback this year, and we ' re proud to be a part of it. in September, we dusted off the ta- bles, swept cobwebs out of the corners, replaced stale chemicals, and got the wheels turning again. It was a big respon- sibility to take over, but the staff worked together when the deadlines rolled around. DEADLINES — Those DEADLINES!!! What about the 32 hours straight of DEADLINES?! Now we know what real deadline pressure is like — but we had you know who watching over us and keeping us company at 5:00am (after the pigeons got tired of flying in and out of the window). Learning new things was a part of the game too! The Dark Room was a new experience, and for some it came to haunt them in their dreams. Quick print- ing lessons were given to the unexpect- ing newcomer (including the co-editors). After printing lessons were adminstered, smiles appeared on the faces of Kathy and Becky, because their trap was final- ly set. Unexpectedly, the new darkroom specialists were to receive unlimited in- vitations from them to return. Many thanks are in store for our sec- tion editors: Lisa Callamero — Special Events; Bill Gavenas — Sports; Peggy Payne — Housing; Michele Berwinkle — Organizations; and Pat Bailey — Sen- iors. A special thanks goes out to our dedi- cated photographers. What can we say? Without your help the yearbook just wouldn ' t be! You guys are terrific! One more sincere thank you to Craig Machnik for designing the cover. Good luck experiencing the prisms of life — Bek and Kath, the co-editors 67 Harbinger The Harbinger is a literary magazine of cre- ative poems, short stories, and photogra- phy written and submitted by Bethany stu- dents.

Stu- dents are assigned to write feature stories about the campus and the interesting citi- zens about Bethany. Photographers are also assigned to take interesting pictures that capture the true life around Bethany. The editor has the main job of pulling all this together for publication.

These reknowned bathers have been all over the world sampling sun- ny spots in Barbados, Maui, Ft. Lauderdale, Ivabelle Harlan, Zeta, and Sigma Nu. But they ail agree their favorite strip is Camp- bell Beach. Mo special qualifications are re- quired, though many members do unself- ishly devote their class time to one special activity of this club. The springtime ritual of throwing books aside to put sunglasses and bathing suits on is a common clue that the Bethany Beach Club is in action once again. Tower The Tower is the campus newspaper that comes out every week.

Renner Gnion 1983-84 proved to be a year of success- ful and diversified programming for the Renner Union Board. The field house rocked with the sounds of Three Dog Night, Lionel Hampton, The Greg Kihn Band, and The Michael Stanley Band while in Wailes Theatre the audiences enjoyed the rhythmic dance of the Alvin Ailey Repertory Ensemble and the clas- sical music for the Mainz Chamber Or- chestra. Dances in Renner Too rocked to the Silencers, jammed to the reggae of S.W.A.M.M.P. and listened to the cool blues of Leon Redbone. The Wednesday night Weimer crowd roared with Blazing Saddles, cried with Officer and a Gentle- man, cheered with Rocky III. The Renner Union Lounge came alive with art and photography while Maxwell ' s stomped to bluegrass and folk. 79 Football Cheering This year ' s fall cheerleadlng squad had the advantage of having cheered togeth- er during the past basketball season and from knowing each other well, which is half the battle. Seven girls and an occa- sional Bison were at the football field every Saturday for the home games and with the team on the away games, brav- ing the first heat in September, then the rain in October especially Homecoming, and finally the cold in November, to cheer on the team, provide spirited en- tertainment and to encourage the crowd to participate. The girls have a lot of fun because they enjoy the responsibilities and benefits of cheerleadlng. The cheer- leaders sponsored an All-Campus dance with the theme Fall Sports . The squad hopes to make this a semi-annual event.

Moitis 86 The 1983 Bison football season was not a particularly outstanding one, with a final record of 4-5. However, one bright star shined through to brighten the sea- son. Bethany College ' s senior Mike Young was named Most Valuable Player in the President ' s Athletic Conference. The Bisons are looking forward to the season next year. v :v : •;•v: ::: :•:• :v:• :v:::::!::::-:: ::W: - :vy!:: 87 Men ' s Soccer Another successful season is put in tlie bool s for the Bison Booters. The fi- nal record was 9-4-2, their 7th straight PAC title. Despite these promising statis- tics and with much controversy, the Bi- sons did not receive a bid to the national playoffs. Hence, the team, in anticipa- tion of going to the playoffs, had to settle for a ranking of 11th nationwide. Nevertheless, the booters continued to dominate the PAC, ending this season without a loss. With their efforts being appreciated, seven players were award- ed All-PAC titles. Sandy Mick, left strik- er, was named Most Valuable Player. Head Coach John Cunningham and Ciinition Graham Ramsey are to be con- gratulated for their efforts. Co-captains Sandy Mick and Tim Fieldhouse deserve recognition for their strong leadership both on and off the field. Considering this was a rebuilding year, the fans can be quite proud of their team. With only three seniors leaving, the ' 84 booters hope to gain a national title. { ' jii- Hpypj ' t ' . • n IP ' V s Mma J 1 88 r ■-I ' Row 1: B. Campbell, M. Hoffman, P. Cerminaro, Q. Birrer, A.

Looking sharp in their new black and green uniforms paid for by such fund raisers as RentA-Date and a basket of cheer raffle, the women booted their way to victories over Geneva, Wheeling Club, Wheeling College, and ICJP. IGP proved to be a fair match by coming back to even the score but defeat the Bisons. Slippery Rock and Pitt challenged the ladies too, but the competition proved to be too much, and the Bisons were defeat- ed again. The team is looking forward to playing them next year. Finally, thanks to the coaches who helped give the women ' s soccer team a winning season. Thanks for a job well done. • IJ ri . , « - y-- 90 Top, Left to Right. M. Barndt, Trainer; N. Tidwell, B.

Volleyball This year ' s volleyball team finished fourth in the PWC Tournament. Bethany outplayed CM(J to enter into the semi- finals. There they lost to the eventual winners of the conference, California State College. The team was led by the excellent hit- ting skills of senior co-captain and MVP, Mary Mazero, and co-captain Laura Para- chini ' s strong serving and defensive play. Accompanying them was impres- sive backline play by freshman Heidi McGuigan and blocking by Stacy Ma- tuliwicz and Jean Coger. Freshman Kim Howe added strength with her serving power. The team w ill be loosing only one starter so they are looking forward to a strong team next year. Women ' s Tennis The women ' s tennis team had an overall winning season with a record of 6-3. Kim Hyde ' s performance was outstanding. Her strong backhand and team spirit were es- sential elements to the success of the team. Rightfully, she was named as Bethany ' s Most Valuable Player. The season ended with a high point when the team captured third place in the Pennwood West Confer- ence.

There were a number of games that were played in rain, downpours and ever annoying drizzles. Sometimes the team wondered if they were really play- ing hockey or were mud wrestling in- stead! Nevertheless, the Lady Bisons won the Penwood West Conference with a 6-1 victory and ended with a 9-2-1 over- all record. There were five all confer- ences players named; Heidi Johnston, Michelle Berwinkle, Monica Maryasz, Ginny Ridgeway and Daria Jackson. The team would like to give special thanks to Nan, Eileen and, of course, Duke. A toast goes out to all who played, to winning the conference again, and to receiving national ranking next year!

The Whalers finished the season with a league record of 8 wins and 10 osses and an overall record of 9 wins and 10 losses. The Whalers finished tied for third in the Greater Pitt Division missing the playoffs by just one point. The team suf- fered many injuries during the season which was the reason for them not mak- ing the playoffs. The team shows great potential for the upcoming years. The team will only be losing 3 players due to graduation; Jack Fisher, Dan Miller, and team cap- tain and leading scorer Dave Keon. Dave lead the team and league in scoring. He finished the season with 50 goals and 13 assists for a total of 63 points. Water Polo Water Polo had a very limited season the past year due to lack of funds from SBOG. Player-coach Dave Tucker looked over the past season as a rebuild- ing year since all players will be return- ing next season. The two games which they played were both against Denison, They lost both games by scores of 7-11 and 5-9. Doug Corella was high scorer of the year with 7 goals. Next year they look forward to a better season as most of the players are returning and they expect a few talented freshmen ant the team.

Black, Kemp, Spragg, and Shelly were all out with some sort of leg or foot injuries. Newcomers Dan Hummel and Jay Weinburg did a fine job, leading the Bi- sons to a season well done. The team will be losing only 2 seniors and expect a few eager freshmen next season. The Bisons are looking forward to next year and a championship season. 95 Women ' s Basketball The 1983-84 Lady Bison Basketball squad battled its way to a third place finish in the PWC tournament. The sea- son was a challenging one with only three returning letterwinners, Robyn Thompson, Lisa Redolphy, and Ginny Ridgeway. Three players were recog- nized through All Conference Selection for their seasons accomplishments. Freshman Diane Hess was elected to the 1st team all PWC, leading the Bisons in scoring and rebounding. Junior co-cap- tain Robyn Thompson was selected to the 2nd team, leading Bethany in assists.

The Bison Baseball Team had only four seniors and was forced to rely on talent- ed but inexperienced young ball players. Therefore Coach Jim Meyer had his work cut out for him when the team headed to Florida for spring training. But when the team returned to Bison Coun- try, Coach Meyers assembled a team that took the PAC rivals by surprise. Senior left fielder Blaze Leonetti lead the offensive hitting with .483 in conference play. First baseman Mark Horan pro- vided a strong bat as he hit well over .400. Both Horan and Leonetti were cho- sen as all conference players. Freshman Zane Beegle received an all PAC Honor- able Mention award and freshman Keith Roth started off the season with a no hitter against PAC winners John Carrol University. Defense was headed by PAC Honorable Mention center fielder Ed Chuba and senior shortstop Steve De- pasqual. The Bisons ended the season at 4th in the PAC with a 4-5 record. 99 Women ' s Softball J: The women ' s varsity Softball team cap- tured the Pennwood West Conference with a record of 6-0 and an overall record of 8-7.

They often battled freezing temps and rain, but through everything the team ' s spirit always remained high. Dan- ny, Chris, and Bob, Bing-Bing-Bing kept their spirits high. Danny and Chris had a great season in doubles and Tim Buxton was the singles player with the most wins. The team ended the season with a 2-6 record.

Four losing effort s evidently allowed the lady sticksters to sharpen their skills and finish by defeating Winchester-Thur- ston and Sewickley.
