The centennial celebration was the most extensive promotional program the Church had ever ventured. lt leaned heavily on the school to again supply the needed leadership and talent to success- fully accomplish its objectives. l-leading the vast machinery was Seminary President John Kromminga, who led the synodical com- mittee and delivered centennial messages around the continent. The Calvin Oratorio Society was joined by local church choirs to provide the music for the Grand Rapids cen- tennial rally. And in Chicago, the A Cappella Chior appeared for a rally audience of over 'IQ,OOO. Former Calvin Thespian Ted Andriese narrated the local performance of the centennial pageant. Most members of the effective speaking choir were also students or alumni. I We , -x 9 , Y The mailing of posters, banlcs, and place mats was a formidable taslc in itself. The centennial oFFice, staffed by Calvin people, was then Filled by extra student volunteers. Sight-sound projects helped bring the centennial message to the churches. Back of the scenes in their production were Calvin faces Syd Youngsma, George Werkema, Ananda Perara, and Casey Wondergem. ft if E I J , r
