On July 8, l89l, Presbyterian representatives ot Fort Dodge and Sioux City met in Storm Lake and formally incorporated Buena Vista, College. ln its 63rd year the college remains under the control of the Presbyterian Church. It is broadly Christian and among trustees, faculty, and stu- dents are numbered the adherents of a large number ot Christian faiths. 1 tim of if ,xr 6, A, 1 , C ,. i-1 1. n L 'U --Q i,, , lim 2 Li il il lm Es i'ul i'? it fu will N 3 a 1 F w r E 1 Y 5 X X X X X X X X xx TABLE OF CCNTENTS X X X I DEDIfCATION .... .. . . 3-9 HOMEC' MI,NG.'. 36-45 MUSIC ....

What are the qualities that go into the making of a desirable lite? No two people would give exactly the same answer to this question, but l think there would be pretty gene-ral agreement on the following: intellectual achievement and intellectual integrity, professional and technical competence in some one Held, the ability to appreciate art in at least one of its classic forms, kindliness, sympathy, and sociability, good manners, reverence and loyalty to moral ideals in the true Christian sense. Q The varied activities ot the College, both curricular and extra-curricular, give each student the opportunity to attain these qualities l sincerely hope that each one ot you has made the most ot this opportunity.

The United Student Christian Association was established on campus in order to guide and direct Christian activities and promote a development ot spiritual lite by means ot church services, discussions, guest speakers, Elms and chapel services. ln its third year the organization has accomplished many things tovvard promoting a vvell-rounded Christian education. The tree lighting service and the Christmas chapel service are under the guidance ot this organization. Each year they set aside one week, Consecration Week, during which special em- phasis is given to our church services for all faiths. 15 Presfde HfAl1e,, Wirfz Roger Anderson Ben Boldt Charles Bryant Bill Fahan Whois Who Eight Seniors will represent Buena Vista College in the i954-55 edition ot Who's Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges.

Eilers In Recognition Of 50 Years Of Loyal And Effective Service To Buena Vista College. Billy Edson, as he is affectionately known by his friends, became a member of the board of trustees of Buena Vista College in 1904. His connection with Buena Vista, however, was on an even earlier date. He entered as a prep student in December, 1891. He, with ten others, graduated from the prep department in 1894. He continued as a college student and graduated in a class of three in 1896. He then went to Ames College, now known as Iowa State. He graduated from there in 1898. He made the varsity football team at Ames. He decided to take up the study of law and transferred to Iowa University. He graduated in 1901. While at Iowa, he became famous as a football player in the national champion team for the years 1899 and 1900. In spite of the smallness of his physical stature, he became an all-American. He coached football at Buena Vista in the years 1902 and 1903. Now we come to the year 1904 when he tirst became a member of the board of trustees of Buena Vista college. He was also given the dubious honor of being made treasurer of the college. Upon taking up his duties, he found a total of 51.89 on hand. The faculty had not been paid for some time and therefore served an ultimatum on the new treasurer that 51,500 must be raised in a week's time. Otherwise they would quit in a body. At the end of the seventh day, Mr. Edson had raised the necessary 351,500 Raising that sum at the time was easily the equivalent of raising 515,000 today. This was the first time Mr. Edson saved the life of Buena Vista college. Throughout the following 50 years, there was a number of occasions when the college would have folded for the lack of money if it had not been for Mr. Edson. During this long period, he not only gave unstintingly of his time but also of his money. He contributed more money during the 50 years than has any other person. Today Buena Vista college is a great institution and many persons have helped make it so. But there is one person without whom there would be no college today. That person is Willis C. Edson. With total assets of land, building and endowment of less than sso,ooo in 1904, we now have total assets of nearly 351,000,000 From an institution graduating four persons in 1904, we now are graduating 125 persons. To Willis Edson must go the greatest credit for this accomplishment. Incidentally, I am sure he will agree that a by-product of his early connection with Buena Vista has been of greater value to him than he has been to the college. ln the graduating class of 1904 there was a comely young lady named Ethelyn Baile. He married that young lady soon after graduation. She has been his ardent supporter in the progress of Buena Vista for the entire 50 years. If Willis Edson were to appear on the television program This ls Your Life, and he is eminently entitled to be so honored, Ralph Edwards would bring out these facts in his life: a devoted husband, a loving father, a good Presbyterian, an outstanding attorney, a leading citizen, a typical Iowan, a 100 per cent American, a 100 per cent Buena Vista college alumni. Through the program from beginning to end, his interest in Buena Vista college would be interwoven. For a number of years before his passing, Senator Taft was known as Mr. Republican because of his loyalty to that party. Mr. Edwards, I am sure, would end his program by dubbing Willis Edson as Mr. Buena Vista. Billy Edson, in behalf of alumni, students, faculty, friends and the board of trustees of Buena Vista college, and particularly those of the board who have had the pleasure of serving with you in past years, we present you this scroll in recognition of 50 years of loyal and elfective service to Buena Vista college. We, the board of trustees of Buena Vista college, pledge to you that Buena Vista college shall endure. We believe the citizens of Storm Lake in particular and Iowa in general, the Presbyterian church, alumni, students, faculty and President Fisher will ioin us in this pledge. A copy of this scroll will be suitably placed in the institution where it will hang in perpetuity. There it will serve as a motto for generations to come that where there is a will, there' is a way.

Student Library Committee The Buena Vista College Student Library Committee is in its second year of being an organization ot merit on the Buena Vista College Campus. This committee is the liaison group between the student body and the Faculty Library Committee. This group cooperates with the Faculty Library Committee, but they remain a separate and distinct committee. They aid in developing the library in all phases ot library endeavors, as well as in developing the student interest in the library. This is the only committee ot its nature in a college or university in the United States. The members are shown examining the first purchase from the O'DONOGl-IUE - Cl-IRISTENSEN BUENA VISTA COLLEGE LIBRARY FOUNDATION.

Beaver Log Staff Time waits tor no one. Keeping up with it requires a con- tinual forging ahead. Still it's inspiring to look back once in a while and see where you have been and what's been accom- plished. Fond memories otten times give the doldrum pattern of lite a comforting glow of warmth and beauty. For this reason the Beaver Log is published. Possibly this is what-inspired the iunior class to create the Hrst Buena Vista yearbook in l906. They not only edited the book, which they christened The Rudder, but published it as well. its contents were a bit dilterent from the present yearbook in that it featured many poetic quotations and other copy, and con- tained only fitty pictures. The most interesting fact is that the entire junior class consisted of only two members, Miss Mable Luhmann and Miss Lura McLean. Our admiration goes to these two enterprising young ladies. . The yearbook was abandoned during the war years, and was taken up again in T947 under the editorship ot one Donald W. Kearny. It was in this year also, that the name was changed to the Beaver Log. During the course of time the book has been transformed to the point where it now resembles a pictorial history, containing more than 800 photographs which bring the past year to lite more vividly through the candid eye ot the camera. It is our endeavor to re-create the year's activities in a manner you will like to recall and remember as this year passes into antiquity. 71 twig.

Carroll led the club in hitting, total bases, and was tied for the leadership in doubles with pitcher Jim Foell. Carroll, a steady, conscientious competitor was feared by pitchers for his sharp vision and ability to hit in the clutch . . Keith Sawin will be remembered for his mighty three-run swat over left center field wall at Memorial Park during the playoff game against Luther College, Keith led the club with four home runs. 76 Captain Bill Tryon Home Run King IV-l'1f-'3f':3eiiiV.
