THE BETHEL UULLEGE 1960 GRAYMARUUN NUIITH NEWTUN KANSAS Foreword The doors of anticipation and expec- tation are swinging wide as they heck- on to the enthusiasm of our youth. We long for the unknown exciting future which their entrance will gain for us. Yet, we close the door to the past with sadness and hesitation, for we have learned that we can never regain the past to the present. We cling like a young child clings to his parents to past memories of defeat and elation, to images of joy and despair, to tasks which we did well and those which lack of understanding prevented us from accomplishing. At last we are fully aware that it is this past that has re- moved the lock from the future's door. It is this past that has taught us the lessons of experience which will enable us to march forward with confidence. yy, A' 'ArgpAa:':njAQq'mAi? :gps X ,QA :A , ' ik.: ' ' ijt aids-' ' a'f.wum',T7J,m,'.,,g, gym' QA 4. , ' .

Our hearts waited with impatience for our feet to carry them to the strength and confidence which were waiting within its doors. The days of trouble were many and we often searched unsuccessfully only to rediscover our own inadequacies. How peacefully and securely we once again opened the heavy doors to its sanctuary. Those old steps, pitted, dented, cracked, unattractive . . . those very same steps which always tripped our feet as we rushed to chapel are a part of home to us. The big heavy doors, the same that became more enormous with each prairie breeze are like the entrance to our own homes. How often have we stretched our necks to follow that chalky-white tower as it climbed skyward. Will time slowly erase? Perhaps, but only until we return for another glimpse. We can ne'r forget a part of home. .-LQ., 'L K 7 'gjyuafqjgiw .5 V ' Lf' '- jiwiliic, .far . - W . ' .. .1 .. ...sf . . KR r rbi? 1-1 x ' ax at .. 7 - ' vm r M' , W 5. . . .

Bllilllll UF DIREUTUR The aims and objectives of the Board of Directors of Bethel College are reflected in the functions of the vari- ous committees in which their responsibilities are met. These committees include a planning committee, finance committee, and teacher's committee. The planning committee strives to plan the program of physical development of the campus for the next twenty-five years. It is the duty of the finance committee to discover ways and means of raising funds to finance the development program, and to make necessary decisions concerning endowment funds and other financial matters. The hiring of new teachers and other faculty concerns are the responsibilities of the teacher's committee. WIIME 'S ASSUUIATIU The association has contributed greatly to the development of Bethel College through the many projects which they have undertaken. These projects include kitchen equipment for Memorial Hall, and a contribution of more than 350,000 for the Women's Residence Hall. Current projects include the establishment ofa fellow- ship for Bethel College faculty women to complete their doctoral degrees, and partial refurnishment of Carnegie Hall. The organization presently consists of 191 women, nearly half of whom are life members. From row, leff to rigfalz Mrs. David H. Suderman, second vice-president, Mrs. W.

Fl Il ARTS MEMUIHAL HALL ERIE November 23-Nelson and Neal, an Australian-American husband-wife piano team, rendered the first number of the Memorial Hall Series for this year. They presented a delightful concert which included original four-hand music by the Classical as well as the Modern masters. This famous piano duo is hailed by the National Artists Corporation as being among the greatest contemporary musical artists. Their wide acceptance among their listeners is explainable only in terms of their universal success with artists and audiences alike. The Neals are on tour from October through April, presenting concerts all over North America. Since their marriage eleven years ago, they have traveled more than a quarter of a million miles, giving nearly eight hundred concerts in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Mr. Ncal has recently written a book entitled, lI rzz'e Ai' Yon Pius. an autobiography on himself and his family. january 21-Dr, Martin Luther King, jr., famed integration leader from Montgomery, Alabama, presented the second number of the 1959-60 Memorial Hall Series. His forceful lecture, in which he stressed the importance of love and nonviolence in the future of the Negro movement toward equality and justice, was well received by a full house in Memorial Hall. Dr. King has served as president of the Montgomery Improvement Association, the organization which guided and directed the bus boycott in Montgomery. He is the author of the famous book, Slride Touura' Freedom, in which he explains the developments of the integration movement in the city of Montgomery. In 1957 the Gallup Poll revealed that he was one of the most admired religious leaders of the world. In the same year Time magazine selected him as one of the ten outstanding personalities of the year. February 4AThe Concordia Choir of Moorhead, Minnesota, under the direction of Paul Christiansen, was featured as the third number of this year's Memorial Hall Series. Singing a cappella, the choir presented a well-verigated program ranging from the sixteenth century classics down through the Bach era to the contemporary masters. Several favorite selections by the director's father, the distinguished F. Melius Christiansen, were included in the repertoire. The concert was well received by an audience who felt they had witnessed a great accomplishment in the realm of choral music. This famed group of sixty-five singers has toured the nation several times in recent years, and won wide ac- claim on a tour of Europe in 1958. In its years of concertizing, the Concordia Choir has been lauded from coast to coast as one of the foremost contemporary choral groups in America. The reception of the choir by musi- cians and laymen alike has been overwhelming. April 2-As the final number of the Memorial Hall Series, the New York Brass Quintet, of the Pryor-Metz Con- cert Service, was featured. They presented a refreshing, sophisticated concert of the fading art of brass ensemble music. Organized on 1953, this Quintet was the first organization of its kind to sign a long term exclusive contract with a major recording company. Recordings, concerts, innumerable television appearances, and one educational movie are already among the distingiushed accomplishments of these fine young musicians. 5 . 9 Left fo rigbl: Dorothy Harms Caccompanistj, Carolyn Friesen, Ruth Ewy, Leon janzen, Loren Weirmbrenner Shirley Unrau, Donna Albrecht, Charles Flowers, john Zergcr, Judy Fairchild, Arlo Kasper, Marvin Thieszen Donna Froesc, Lois Peters, Harvey Harms, Gerald Leinbach, Ruth Eitzen.

It was written by May- nard Shelly and musically arranged and compiled by Harold Moyer. The pageant was presented originally at the 1959 Centennial session of the General Conference in Bluffton, Ohio. It depicted Mennonite history through a number of incidents and illustrated the theme of faith and its mean- ing in human experience. The cast was composed of Bethel and Freeman College students, ministers and laymen of General Conference churches. The presentation at the festival constituted the begin- ning of an extended pageant tour into Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota, and Manitoba. Memorial Hall was filled to capacity for both performances in Newton. It will long be remembered by all who attended. Arms and the Manf a play written by George Bernard Shaw, was presented by the drama department of Bethel College on February 19 and 20. The play demonstrated remarkable achievement in that it was produced and direct- ed entirely by student volunteers. Helen Voth and Dianne Waltner served as co-directors. In the absence of a dra- matics instructor this year, the drama students organized and made a fine contribution to the cultural life of the cam- pus. They are to be commended for their fine work.

Anonymour W PPERTAL EXCHANGE Pllllllllilll For the past number of years Bethel College has participated in an exchange program with the Paedagogische Academie Qaboz-'el in Wuppertal, Germany.

It has long been realized that there is a need for improving relations between various races within our own country. This program has helped to meet this need in that it provides for a closer understanding of American brothers, white and dark. Elizabeth Bradshaw and Willa Mae Gardner are representing Spellman on the Bethel campus this year. Anna Marie Peterson from Wayland, Iowa, and Martha Thiessen from Leamington, Ontario, are attend- ing Spellman in Atlanta.
