There is a time for everything 55.40 There is something that differentiates one college from another, that brings to mind special memories. That something is dorm life. lt is not those seemingly endless nights of study that will stand out in the minds of those who shared in this school year. lt is the lighter times that will be re- membered: the times of finding new and old pranks and stunts to pull or those treasured times of fellowship. Some of the daily activities are the various kinds of hall sports which can be enjoyed providing you participate or stay out of the line of fire, the more or less fre- quent water fights that always end with mopping up and a favorite past-time- throwing people in the Helm. There are some new pranks, though they are few because just about everything has been tried. The bike rack trick had Oak- wood girls trapped on the third floor for a while. ln celebration of his engagement, Dave Pannabecker's car lwith wheels re movedl was filled with cans and decorated for another prank. Not all these incidents can be recorded on the pages of an annual. But, they are recorded in the minds of those who ex- perienced them. 26 .,-.. fre - sw W , 3 ,, was X .

Peace, Love and Mud was the motto of Senior Sneak this year-and plenty of mud there was. Leaving from a progressive supper, the seniors arrived at Camp Friedenswald in Union, Michigan late at night. The rain confined them to one building and in- door games. Late that night, they had testimonies and devotions combined with a communion service. For the com- munion, they shared a common cup and broke off pieces of bread from one loaf. This brought to the sneak a unity in Christ among each who participated. The next day they played games and just enjoyed each other. Also, realizing that this was their last time all together before graduation, they thought about and discussed their future plans. Being under one roof helped create a bond and closeness between each mem- ber of the senior class which made the Senior Sneak a time to remember. s Above left: Seniors enjoy their time together as they sit around a table to eat.
