Starting the season slowly, they gained momentum and strength, climaxing the season by breaking the two year conference win- ning streak of Kansas Wesleyan. Bethel also gained the distinction of placing three men on the All-Con- ference: Clayton Kaufman, quarterback; Larry Pen- ner, end; Virgil Penner, guard. Named to the second team were Myron Goering, tackle and Arlo Buller, guard. Receiving honorable mention were Loren Kuehny, tackle; Randy Schmidt, fullback; Kenny Stucky, halfback.

For several weeks the Health Center was filled to overflowing and many were confined in the dornnitories Luckily, the epi- demic passed with no more serious consequences than a few days of class work to make up and a very tired hangover feeling for most students. Health Center I Mrs. Anita Buterbaugh, School Nurse OCT.- Myron Schrag, Sports Editor; Melvin Schmidt, Editor; Winona Waltnar, Assistant Editor; Paul Wiebe, Assistant Editor. This year, many students and faculty members were seen over the medium of television. In this relatively new method of public relations, Bethel participated in a series of TV programs entitled This is Bethel College. In this series, the various departments of the school were viewed. On the opposite page are shown some of the students who par- ticipated in this program. Bi-weekly the Bethel Collegian opens a new window overlook- ing the campus. Through each window students can survey the various departments and activi- ties of their campus, and school supporters con look into the functions of the college. Tlie ed- itors have tried to interpret the threefold purpose of the paper — to inform, to express student opinions, and entertain. This year the paper received a one rating from the National Rating Association. Virgil Penner, Robert Rupp, Helen Schroeder, Art. COLLEGIAN Zona Piatt, Poetry Reading.

A challenge for every senior Every scnool year, during the win- ter quarter, the senior begins to fearfully scan the bulletin board to find out when his Comp is. At the appointed hour, he tremu- lously enters the conference room of the faculty lounge. One hour later, he emerges — pale, visibly shaken, but still breathing. What happened? He just finished his Oral Comprehensive Examination. In this exam, a board of four fac- ulty members tries to determine the senior ' s maturity and what he has gained from Bethel College. They question the senior on the assigned book he was supposed to have read and also ask other questions concerning his habits, beliefs, and philosophy of life. Pictured above is a sample oral comprehensive board with Karin Muehlin as the student.

With many students living in one large group on the campus, various types of school problems arise. The Student Council has the complex job of coping with these problems while integrating the students to work for a united school spirit. The council Is directly responsible for school projects, school activities, and student body elections. It also acts in an advisory capacity for student organizations. The student council ' s overall purposes are to promote democratic Christian living, secure co-operation of students with the faculty, and foster a dynamic school spirit. The represenatlves of the council must know the students and must be ready to face student problems. Student representatives ore elected from each class every year. The faculty representatives act in an advisory capacity for the benefit of the Council. SIUDENI COURT Tlie Student Court, in its third year of operation, again handled student disciplinary cases. This year, the court made a thorough study of its constitution, and proposed several amendments which were passed by the student body. In these amendments, the court tried to distribute the power of handling disciplinary cases to the men ' s and women ' s dorm councils. In this arrangement, the court would handle the cases lying out of the jurisdiction of the respective dorm councils. MARCH 15 APRIL 29 Usherettes at Mem Hall Series BEIA KAPPA Beta Kappa is the girls ' pep and service organi- zation at Bethel.
