CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION Fall Festival at Bethel is always a big event, drawing thou- sands of alumni, students and thek families, and area community members to campus for five fun-filled days. This year ' s Celebra- tion ' 87 marked Betiiel ' s 100th anniversary. The events began on Thursday with registration and historical tours of the campus. A showcase of bands and food fair, Cele- brating a Partnership: Newton and Bethel, was held in downtown Newton. Friday was Thresher reunion Time with special ac- tivities for alumni. The all-day tennis tournament and alumni art exhibit were well-attended. Other activities in the afternoon in- cluded musical performances on the Green, a Bethel men ' s soccer match, a wheat weaving demonstration, and the special centennial drama, House of God, in Krehbiel Auditorium. Saturday ' s fall fair included craft demonstrations, exhibits by academic departments, the German Schmeck Haus, and a country store. Fall Fest provides a variety of entertainment, for music lovers and sports fans alike. A 500-voice oratorio chorus performed as part of the worship service, A host of witnesses, on Sunday morning. Two Bethel choirs and the community choral choir pre- sented the Creation by Franz Joseph Haydn. Special demonstrations are the highlight for many festival goers. The process of wheat weaving - making various crafts from straw - has been adopted as a Mennonite tradition. Lis- tening to good lecturers is a Be- thel trademark, and Dr. Earnest Boyer, president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, disappointed no one as keynote speaker for Bethel ' s centennial program, Launching a second century. § Kazoo salespersons Linda Loflln and Kory Huebert raise monej at Fall Fest, for student senate.
