We feel that Mrs. Mosiman was a saintly woman, whose life was a constant testimony of the love and goodness of God. From her face radiated the sense of joy and satisfaction which was deep in her heart. For many years, she was active as a leader in the college as the wife of our former president, Dr. Mosirnan. Through their efforts, the college grew into an active Christian institution, where the principles and ideals of Christ's teach- ings became the sound basis of higher education. It was with arecrt humility and adoration that we paid our last respects to her on December 17, l953, and though she is with us no longer in person, her mem- ory will be ever with us, and her life will stand before us as a challenge to the highest and finest in Christian living.

This year, there were services by students, ministers ot the surround- ing communities, and others who were on the campus for various types ot meetings. Out- standing in these chapel services was the challenging message ot our President each week. CH PEL College church is a religious organization tor college students by college students. lt meets on Sunday evenings at six o'clock in the Lincoln Hall lobby. Its main purpose is to enrich the spiritual lite here on campus. The executive committee strives to plan a variety of programs that will appeal to different students, but at the same time, be a spiritual blessing to all who attend. COLLEGE CH RCH I3 I CHRI TIA LIEE EEK Another high point in our college career was the Christian Lite Week held from April 30 to May 2. Dr. Harold Gross was the speaker. He is at present the Dean ot Freeman Iunior Col- lege, Freeman, South Dakota. Our lives were enriched and our minds challenged by the thoughts which he presented to us. I4 BIBLE LECT RE A spiritual highlight oi this year was the Week ot Bible Lectures in November, with Edward K. Zeigler, B.D., D.D. as the speaker. Dr. Zeigler is the Director of Evangelism in the Church of the Brethren, Elgin, Illinois. In the evening series at the First Mennonite Church, he spoke on the prophet, Ieremiah. In the morning series in the chapel, his thoughts centered about how Christ Changes Life . PEACE I TITUTE Rev. I. N. Smucker, pastor of the Woodlawn Mennonite Church, Chicago, Illinois and editor of The Mennonite , challenged the student body With messages on the meaning, price and implications ot the pacifist position of the Christian. There were five meetings from February 15 through 17-three evening services and two in chapel. BLUFFTON COLLEGI: l-UNLEKI :mira FOUNDERS HALL ocronxsn ze, 1953 -,-M mini mn. .

The Bluffton College Beavers ended the sea- son With a Mid-Ohio League record of 2-2, tieing Findlay for second place. The over-all record of 3 wins and 4 losses was not indicative of the competitiveness and enthusiasm wit- nessed in each contest. The Mastmen chalked up twelve TD's-nine of them being scored by Reldon Schirch, lim Benroth and Ioe Collingwood. Bluffton was somewhat hindered by the new substitution rule , but the gridder's fine, co- operative attitudes partially overcame this han- dicap. Four varsity men completed their college football careers. They were Ken Bracy, Stan Naylor and our co-captains lohn Bauman and lim Oliver. X LETTERME ,L X X E. Knorr A1 I. Rogers QV? I.

Blutfton's 5-4 Mid-Ohio league record earned us a runner- up trophy, which was presented after the thrill- ing Findlay game. Highlighting the season was the Bio Grande game played before a capacity crowd of 2500 in Founders Hall. Bevo Francis added enthusi- asm and interest by netting 82 points. The Mast men broke the previous College records with 103 points against Cedarville. Topping this record the Cagers scored 111 points when playing Ashland.

Looking ahead in September, 1950, the end seemed a long way oft, but now looking back, our own initiation seems but yesterday. Reviewing the past tour years, we remember the frustrated confusion of orientation, the shock of the first six weeks grades lwe then began to studyj, the scented Riley at Homecoming, numerous sports events and parties. We also remember the many serious moments inspired by Chapel, Bible Lectures, and Christian Life Week speakers. We remember the class play of our junior year- George Washington Slept Here , editing the Ista and especially the sleepless night of September 29. Highlighting our senior year was our memorable trip to Cleveland to see The Robe and the Ice Capades . Now as we step out on the threshold of a new life in which many of us will be scattered over various parts of the earth, we know that we shall never forget the friends at Bluffton College and the many valuable experiences we had here.

The technical director was Addison Myers and stage manager was Gary Sprunger. The three act play has to do with a family of New Englanders who, years before, have given refuge to a great artist. The play opens some years after Bean's death. Dr. Haggett and his family, who have some of Bean's can- vases, suddenly realize their value, and be- corne hard, selfish, and ill tempered. Abby, the family servant, holds them all in her power. She has one of his greatest paintings, which she cannot be persuaded to sell or give away. She is the only one who really understood and appreciated the artist, because she had been married to him-without their knowledge of this act.

Of course We were very anxious to greet the new Fresh- men and give them a proper welcoming. This We accomplished through a live- ly evening of initiation. The following Frosh-Soph party set things aright and we were friends again. Victory was again ours as We pulled the Frosh through the dirty Riley before a crowd of wildly cheering spectators. Now We are all set to fake our places in the various positions of responsi- bility on the campus and to learn God's will for our lives as We seek the truth in our Work and play here at Bluffton College.

FRE HME CLASS .fi in A large group of freshmen have again passed through the stage of orienta- tion and are already an important part of our Bluffton College family. To them things looked confusing, blurred and maybe a bit frightening the first few days, but they soon overcome that and won their Way into the hearts of everyone here. The Student Council, Student Christian Association, Big Brothers and Big Sisters and the faculty tried to help them make these adjustments as easily and quickly as possible. They have contributed greatly to the many aspects of college life-academ- ically, athletically and socially. Our hope is that they will carry on the traditions and ideals of Bluffton College as they pass through these halls of learning and go forth into life to serve God and their fellowmen.

This year there were students from Holland, Germany, Iordan and Puerto Rico. We crre sure that a better understanding would exist among the nations of the world if many others would have the opportunity of real friendship with the people of these lands as we have experienced this friendship here at Bluffton. FACULTY M. ! U 1 AY fs ' V ? ' . Q v 'Q is X xn X: V ,,,,. ,,fW,.1 A x X , e 5 Q Our great need is for a faith, concern for others, and an ethic adequate to meet the problems of this confused age. These are to be found in the Christian faith, in its teaching of love for our fellow men, and in the way of life which Christ taught us to live. While all of us need this faith and Way of life, it is especially important that those gain it who receive an education to fit them to become leaders. Contained in this book is the story of one year of life on the Bluffton College campus, an institution dedicated to this purpose. Words and pictures are in- adequate to fully represent a faith and a philosophy of life which exists in the hearts of individuals. However, it is hoped that those who examine this book Will catch a glimpse of this Way of life, and that students viewing it in future years will be led to re-affirm the faith taught them through Word and experience during this year of college life.

Baumgartner. DEAN There are very few of us who realize the significance of the wonderful service which Dr. Schultz has rendered to the college in the twenty years he has been Dean. His faithful role as administrator and teacher has been a big factor in the continual growth and de- velopment of the school. His days have been filled with seeing that the little necessities of college administration are attended to and yet he has always held high the ideal of Christian training for all, that we might better serve our God. We wish to express our grat- itude to him for his share in making our col- lege days happy and profitable. T T BOARD 0F These seventeen men of many businesses and profes- sions have faithfully dedicated a great deal of their time and efforts to the continuing devel- opment of Bluffton College. Their efforts are often behind the scenes , but without them We could not continue function- ing as an efficient and success- ful institution. TR TEE PAUL R. SHELLY.

The Ohio Oil Company had sent it there, at a cost of 3l,500,000, to find out if there are new sources of oil waiting at depths never before explored. As these words are written, it is not yet known whether or not this well will ever produce any oil. But it's sure to produce something even more im- portant: ltnozvlrdge. .Nrzu knowledge.
