Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1952 volume:

■ ' $ m ZUr CcL -— ■«S8.. CHRIST ABOVE ALL To me to live is CHRIST, that is my motto. One is your Master, even CHRIST, to that I have assented. God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of CHRIST, that is my renunciation of worldly ambition. I can do all things through CHRIST, that is my confidence that His grace will always be sufficient. Who shall separate me from the love of CHRIST, that is my challenge to all my foes. That I may win CHRIST, that is my chief ambition. That I may rejoice in the day of CHRIST, that is my supreme desire. To know the love of CHRIST, that is the most precious experience in the life that now is. To depart and be with CHRIST, that is my intense longing touching the better, the very far better things of the life that is to come. —Selected— Onward t Christian Soldiers Sabine Barinfe-Gould Arthur Sullivan erbicemen ' a oll Call ..: 4r w G (0 V Y l -t- :£=£ - -ist— g r- ■ ■ — : aig] sa,C ts - William R.

He faces difficult tasks with faith and courage. He handles delicate situations with tact and understanding. His fellowship is a delight and his leader- ship is inspiring. He loves the Lord, and reflects this fact in his daily walk. He is our friend and to him we dedicate this annual: DEAN DWIGHT W. RYTHER My feelings at this stage in the growth of the Lord ' s work here on Bryan Hill are well expressed by the Apos- tle Paul in II Corinthians 1:10 and 11: Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that He will yet deliver us; ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf. Undoubtedly the completion of our main building will herald the dawn of a new day at the William Jennings Bryan University. Such a large and attractive building will make a tremendous difference to a school that has been making such substantial progress in spite of to- tally inadequate facilities. Thus far we have been challenged to demonstrate that we deserve such a fine building. Now that we have the great responsibility of using this valuable asset to the Lord ' s glory, we must look to Him in the future even more than in the past as we seek to preserve the testi- mony that He has given us. iJ xziLclznt ( h JA Tri£ A. dJL FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Dr. A.

This is a continua- tion of the 1951 project which provided the doors for the north end of the building. A recent, though incomplete, tabulation of alum- ni members indicated that at least one-fourth of them are in full-time Christian service or training. There are 52 pastors, 45 foreign missionaries, 22 home mis- sionaries, 74 seminary students, 24 teachers or staff members in Christian organizations. DR.

The council, composed of two representatives from each class plus two members from the Student Body at large, meets weekly to discuss student affairs. In addition to their weekly meet- ings they have charge of the University Prayer Meeting, conduct chapel programs from time to time, represent various civic campaigns, and appoint members to Faculty-Student Commit- tees.

Each week under the direction of the Christian Service As- sociation Council, approximately 177 students are actively engaged in Christian service. An average of 3,500 contacts are recorded weekly as schools, jails, hospitals, and chur- ches are reached with the Good News of Salvation. Groups also go out to child evangelism classes, for cottage prayer meetings, and on the street meeting work. At the beginning of the year the C. S. A. Council was reor- ganized to direct more efficiently the expanding work in the afore mentioned fields of endeavor. 20 Churches and Youth Centers Schools and Child Evangelism dcuf rfnda44ado i4, Front row, left to right: L.

In Child Evangelism Fellowship those students interested in work among children share the common burden for the little ones that Christ commanded His disciples to forbid not. Their meet- ings are centered around this burden and ways and means of meeting the need of children throught the world. Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. Matthew 18:14 Left to right: J. Enyart, B. Smetters, V. Healan, D. Bunch, N. Sweeney, F.

Mr. Toliver was the first Bryan graduate to go out as a missionary. Mrs. Nina Van Vleck, who spent 25 years in the China Bible Seminary of Shanghai and is now working in the candidate office of the China Inland Mission, told something of the new fields they are entering and the qualifications of a missionary. Rev. and Mrs. E. J. Pudney of the Unevangelized Fields Mission gave us an account of the Lord ' s working in Haiti, B elgian Congo and New Guinea. A vivid and heart stirring picture of Europe ' s need in this hour was told by Mrs. Bess Cornell of European Evangelistic Crusade. HAVE YOU HEARD? God marvelously answered prayer in our F. M. F. Conference held January 18-20. We praise Him for the speakers He sent to us and the challenging messages brought in word and pictures. Great blessing and heart searching was evidenced by all of us as we faced the challenge anew to look on the fields for they are white already to harvest. 25 foteicn Dlissions Each morning before classes, various students meet and share the burdens of a world wide vision.

With a fall program of football, a winter program of basketball, a spring pro- gram of softball and field day, and all-year schedules in minor sports, the stu- dents are kept busy, healthy, and enthusiastically happy. A high point in the Spring Quarter is the awarding of the Intra-mural trophy to the winning class. 42 ' 51 Track The Lions enjoyed an unusual measure of success for their first full year of intercol- legiate track competition. In a triangular meet at Rome, Georgia, Bryan placed a close second to Emory Un- iversity, nosing out Berry Schools. Bryan placed fourth in the Milligan Re- lays with Randy Maycumber setting a meet record in the mile run. The Bryan Distance Medley Relay team also smash- ed the meet record in their event. Several Bryanites took part in the State A.A.U. meet taking second in the mile and fourth in the two mile run. B Lettermen, pictured with Coach Vos, are B. Monn, D. Walker, R. Maycumber, D.

Under the direct supervision of the head waitress and head busboy, meals are served platter style, with seconds served later. In the winter months the Saturday even- ing meal features candlelight and special music. During the first quarter of the current school year 53,783 meals were served. Occasionally, special groups are entertained. 62 BANQUETS Thanksgiving Day is Bryan Family Day— a sort of Homecoming, when many of the faculty and Vetsville families and many former Bryanites join the students to partake of the traditional turkey dinner. Tables are decorated by assigned groups and prizes awarded the three judged to be the best. The Christmas Banquet is carried out in a friendly but more formal atmos- phere under the auspices of the Social Committee. The decorations and program are integrated with a special motif which emphasizes the Christmas spirit. Spe- cial music and a visiting speaker highlight the evening. The Bryan banquet is observed in the Spring on the Monday nearest the birthday of William Jennings Bryan. It is also formal in character. Sponsored by the Social Committee, a program fitted for the occasion is carefully planned and carried out. The Alumni Banquet, held the Saturday before the Commencement exer- cises, is the occasion of many happy reunions as graduates and former students come from near and far to see what great things the Lord hath wrought upon their beloved Bryan Hill. Usually, a graduate who has been actively engaged in the Lord ' s service is chosen as the speaker of the evening, bringing encour- agement and inspiration to those present.

Kitchen Busy, busy, busy! Yes, that is the right word to describe the Universtiy kitchen. From early morning, when the cooks and expediters arrive to prepare break- fast, until late at night, when the last dish has been put away and the kitchen thoroughly cleaned, there is a continual round of activity. Valuable practical experience is gained by the students employed in the Boarding Department, this year numbering 96. Under the supervision of the De- partment Director and the more experienced students, supplies are purchased and stored, meat processed, foo ' d prepared and served, dishes and utensils washed, equipment maintained and the rooms kept clean. An atmosphere of cheerful cooperation and a personal interest in the task at hand combine to bring about a fellowship worth more than the monetary returns and to make the Bryan kitchen a precious memory when college days are over. 64 65 Boiler Crew Front row left to right: J. Cox, R. Shaffer, B. Christy. Back row: C. Hanham, R. Mcintosh, D. Wisthoff, R. Meznar, E. Harshbarger. In the cold months university buildings are kept warm and cozy by the faithful ministration of the Iron Firemen of the Boiler Crew. This year, during Christmas vacation a brand new Kewa- nee type C boiler was installed in the administration boiler room. Keeping the steam at the proper pressure requires skill and a sound knowledge of the workings of the boilers, besides many long hours of hard labor. 66 University Bookstore Mrs. Addleman, David Franklin, David Kribbs, Ted Payne. Package from home . . food The University Bookstore in its new location has enlarged facili- ties for serving the student body. Books, school supplies, sweat- shirts, jewelry, and many other items offer a complete collegiate shopping service for the Bryanite. 67 Allen Jewett, Supervisor of University Dairy, Farm The farmer boys take care of Bryan ' s milk herd of about 25 cows, and perform other gen- eral chores. Besides cows, the farm also raises pigs and chick- ens. The rich pastures are aug- mented by a large crop of hay raised each year, and straw- berries enhance the school diet every spring.
