The Students of Cedarville Colleqe-Ccdamlle.Ohio ‘Pieaideat 'Wte uzye IRA D. VAYHINGER Cedarville College has come through a depression and the war in splendid shape. During the war years the current operating budget was balanced; this year it will be over $ 100.000. Our faculty has been en- larged to 15. Our student body has grown until we have 240 different students during the year. Our athletic program has been given wide publicity and attracted many students. During the war it was impossible to make repairs, renew furnaces or build buildings. Since 1945 we have spent $10,000 to replace 7 furnaces, paint the buildings and repair our property. Our need was to house students and provide equipment. Dur- ing this period we purchased the Rife House. We received a building from Patterson Field which has been dismantled, brought to our campus and erected into a splendid dormitory for 65 men. We also received a building from the Federal Works Agency for study and recreation. Two laboratory build- ings from the Federal Works Agency re- main to be erected. War surplus equipment in the amount of approximately $50,000 has been received. 2 3 — CEDAP.VILLE COLLEGE «Tilt ; � rt of ths card i not to b« tiled oaf by tht itudtat) jJ'c� a; pfovrd by f.id Ffd f.matt'i with Tr� ««uter 'CLaMSChMlE Ool'n.

Under the capable direction of Miss Carrie Rife, the Dramatics Club has completed a most entertaining season. The culmination of many weeks’ rehearsals was the night of December 11, when the players presented the American comedy, “The Man Who Came To Dinner , a merciless car- toon of Alexander Woollcott’s bad manners, shameless egoism, bountiful mischief, and widely assorted friendships. Arthur “Curly Harkins did a magnificent impersonation of the eccentric “Man . A cast of twenty-eight appeared in the pres- entation. Class room time for the Dramatics Club is spent in the discussion of plays currently appearing on Broadway, record- ing excerpts from these plays, and discussing the techniques of play production. J.

Creswell gave several public performances during the year 1947-1948. It sang at the Men’s Bible Reading Contest, the Girls’ Bible Reading Contest, Baccalaureate, and Commence- ment. A special sacred concert was given in the spring at Cedarville and at churches in two other towns. A splendid group of students enjoyed the activity this year, and the audiences who heard them sing were warm in their praise of the quality of sing- ing done. Officers of the Mixed Chorus during the first semester were: Arthur Harkins, presi- dent; Charlotte Collins, secretary; Kathleen Evans, librarian. THEORY 14 tZuaitette . ... in chapel The college quartet was revived in the fall semester and a large repertoire of classical, romantic, and humorous num- bers was developed. Besides participating in chapel services, the quartet made frequent appearances at high schools and churches in neighboring towns.

A. are especially proud of their organization this school year of 1947-48 for a number of rea- sons. First, and very important, is the fact that the Cedarville College Y.W.C.A. be- came affiliated with the National Student Y. W.C.A. Through this the members have re- ceived such privileges as corresponding with foreign students, taking part in state and nationwide conferences, receiving a great variety of religious literature, and contributing to the World's Student Christ- ian Federation. In October, the Y. W. sponsored a candy sale in the administration building. Home- made candy was brought for sale by each of the girls and was purchased by the faculty and student body. On November 4 the group sponsored a Tag Day. Each individual donated some time during the day for sell- ing the tags in the down-town district. They felt sure that their time had not been wasted when a total income of $45.50 was reported. The annual CommittalService was pre- sented on November 9 in the Methodist Church with Miss Marie Fisher serving as president and leader of the devotional pro- gram. Rings and pins were purchased by some of the members. The triangular shaped pins were of sterling silver with a fire-blue bar reading “Y. W. C. A. across the top. The triangle is the symbolic emblem of the organization. The rings were similiar in appearance. During December the Y. W. girls were busy selling Christmas cards. On December 16 the annual Christmas party was held at Harriman Hall. The evening be- gan with the group singing carols at differ- ent homes in the village and was climaxed with a gift exchange and chili supper at the dormitory. A Valentine dance was sponsor- ed in conjunction with the Y. M. C. A. Spring activities were successful and the group is looking forward to another active year. 16 First row; John Hawker, Carl Wiseman. Ray Mullen, Robert Warner, Con- ner Merritt.

Traditionally one of the most active of Cedarville's student groups, the Y. M. C. A. returned to its former place of promin- ence during the school year of 1947-48. Under the sponsorship of Professor Fred- erickCarlson the local chapter was revived after the inactivity of the war years when there was not a sufficient number of men on the campus to continue the group. A chapel service each semester has been presented by the Y. M. C. A. Social activities included dinners, parties, and a dance sponsored in cooperation with the Y. W. C. A. Arrangements were made to en- joy the facilities of Y. M. C. A. centers in near-by cities. James Rowe has served aspresident, Conner Merritt as vice-president, Wendell Cultice, secretary; and Adolph Maslar. treasurer. 17 First row; Harkins.

They have demonstrated so by appearing at various churches und schools throughout the county and state. They func- tion as a team and their program is de- voted wholly to carrying the message of Jesus Christ in song and story. When the semester of September, 1947 commenced, the nucleus for a gospel team was a meager one indeed. There were exact- ly four members from which to inaugurate a team. Past president Conner Merritt con- ducted a person-to-person program to in- crease the number and did not cease action until he had formed an entourage of some twenty members. At the next meeting officers were elec- ted and a new name, THF. CARAVANERS, was suggested. It is not difficult to deduce reasons for such a title when one considers the caravans of old. In those days, great ensembles of camels and drivers treked across the deserts of Arabia and Egypt bearing the priceless gifts, incense, myrrh, and rare metals of merchants and kings. Today the Caravan of Cedarville College treks across highways and crossroads bear- ing the Word of Jesus Christ to all who will listen. The Son of God is very often the only ray of hope to which a tired and bewildered people may turn. The Caravan carries this ray of light and in so doing feels a sense of gratitude for the opportunity . There are no outstanding members of the Caravan. Each person contributes his share. Someone reads a portion of the Sc rip- turcs, another sings a hymnal solo, still an- other reads a religious poem, another leads the group in prayer. Always one of the Car- avan prepares a brief message which en- hances the milieu of those attending the pro- gram. 18 'putccie 7cac enA fiaie Uaz First row; J. Dryant, Conner, Flannery, Rine- hart.

The Cedarville chapter was named for the late Professor Hostetler, director of the depart- ment of education, whose ability and skill re- main an inspiration to future teachers. During the period of organizing the group much interest was aroused and fifty students from the education department became mem- bers. It is expected that all future teachers will join the chapter and gain its benefits. Meetings are held once each month with an interesting and educational program. Well known speakers and educators are invited. Interest in teaching is maintained by reading and discussing articles in periodicals each member receives. Professor Beattie, who encouraged the formation of the local chapter, is faculty ad- visor for the group. Officers are: Rollie Bar- ton, president; Conner Merritt, vice-presi- dent; KathlecnEvans, secretary; Marie Fish- er, treasurer; Robert Impson, librarian; Will- iam Troute, historian; Kenneth Huffman, par- liamentarian; Eleanor Weismiller, song leader.

The Chi Mu Delta Fraternity is in one of its most prosperous and active years at Cedarville College. Officers were elected at the beginning of the school year and plans were made for the pledging of new members shortly thereafter. After a pledge period six new brothers were officially sworn in at a fete held in their honor at the Old Mill Camp on November 3. A Halloween party was the first social event provided by the fraternity for the en- tertainment of the entire student body. Dancing and cake walks were enjoyed and a new, popular recreation was introduced in the Hit Little Ernie game with Earnest Foster as the target. An effort was made to establish contact with fraternity members who have grad- uated and left Cedarville. To continue the relationship after school days, the fratern- ity initiated plans for purchasing or erect- ing a house. The house will provide a room- ing place for members in school and a meeting place for alumni who return to see the progress made by the fraternity and Cedarville College 20 (? u, Styrtta P i The Chi Sigma Phi sorority, only soror- ity on the campus at present, was organized in 1935. The sorority holds several social activities during the year. One of the most important of these is the pledge party. Girls are pledged each semester. Once a year the sorority sponsors a dance for the entire student body. At the beginning of the second semester Donna Watkins resigned as president and was succeeded by Kathleen Evans. Helen Tannehill is vice-president; Ellen Hawker, secretary-treasurer, and Patty Grieve, news reporter. J. Oryant, H. Tannehill, Evans, Grieve, Hawker, Knecht, Flannery, Watkins, U.

Another organization to resume activity during the school year of 1947-48 is the Student Council. Each class elected repre- sentatives to the Council in September, of- ficers were picked, and plans for the annual Homecoming were begun. A parade, presen- tation of the queen and attendants at the Homecoming football game, and a semi- formal dance were sponsored by the Coun- cil for the day’s program. To determine the functions of typical student government groups, a survey was made of the work done by them in other Ohio colleges. One new responsibility ac- cepted by the Cedarville College Council was to sponsor each Monday’s assembly. A committee prepared a calendar of pro- grams to be presented by the student or- ganizations and the plan was followed suc- cessfully. The Student Council was also instrumental in reviving the Cedrus by poll- ing the student body for prospective pur- chasers. Carl Watkins served as president, William Troute as vice-president, and Mar- garet Sheley as secretary-treasurer. 22 'Pcwtdif F ton I row: HuyJcn, Johnstown: Strick, Johnstown; Machaiccr.

Thirteen Pennsylvanians attending Cedorville College met during the second semester of the school year to form a new campus organization, the Pennsylvania Fraternity. One of the main objectives of the group is to help new students from Penn- sylvania adapt themselves to college life. Meetings are scheduled twice each month. The state’s insignia, a keystone, has been selected as an emblem for fraternity pins. Professor Jurkat was elected faculty advisor, Professor Beattie, an honorary member, and Harold Machamcr, president of the group. Other officers are: Lou Hrk- man, vice-president; Park King, secretary- treasurer; Dick Brown, chaplain; Bob Kit- ting, sgt. at arms; andJayCheck, publicity agent. 23 I 7 e SecOtcu Sta The '48 Cedrus marks the return of Cedarville’s annual re- view after an absence of six years. Although past editions were consulted, the staff attempted to modernize the book and produce one “new and different. Every step was care- fully considered in the light of journalistic value, entertain- ment merit, and economic advantage. It is the sincere de- sire of all those who have worked on this annual that it shall be a storehouse of memories to be appreciated in the future. � s us- EDITOR........................................Edwin Ryan ASSOCIATE EDITOR...............................Carl Watkins FEATURE EDITOR................................James Rowe SPORTS EDITOR............................................Don Barger ADVERTISING MANAGER..........................Adolph Maslar ADVERTISING STAFF .

' (yathzlt SEASON’S Cedarville-0 - Findlay-51 The Yellow Jackets opened the 1947 Football par- ade in Ohio at Cox Field and were, (badly) out- classed by the Findlay Oilers, one of the State’s top teams. Cedarville-13 - Georgetown-13 A last minute touchdown by the desperate George- townTigers gave thema tie after the yellow jack- ets had led from the first quarter. Earnest Fos- ter, Cedarville quarterback, highlighted the game by his spectacular 104 yard return of akick-off. In the second quarter Eldon Grothwohl scored on a reverse around right end and Don Barger con- verted. Cedarvillc-13 - Canterbury-0 Earnest Stanley recovered a Canterbury fumble in the end zone and Don Barger converted to give the Jackets an early lead in their homecoming contest. Ben McNulty’s line smash from the six yard line increased the margin over the Knights from Canterbury, Indiana. Cedarville-9 - Bluffton A Dad's night victory for the Cedarville eleven who capitalized on their opponent’s errors to cinch their second win. Richard Pratt, Freshman quarterback, was outstanding in this contest. Cedarville-8 - Detroit Tcch-6 The Jackets defeated a powerful Detroit eleven RECORD for the second year in succession. Playing on their home field, Detroit led 6-0 at half time. In the third period Forrest Moler tackled a Tech halfback in their end zone for two points. Late in the final quarter Shorty Foster snared a pass in the end zone for the winning touchdown. Cedarville-0 - Ferris Tech-12 The hard driving Ferris Tech eleven from Big Rapids, Michigan snapped the Jackets winning streak with a plunge from the seven during the second quarter and an intercepted pass in the final period. Cedarville-0 - Rose Poly-0 Fumbles plagued the Jackets in their scoring attempts against the heavier Indiana team. Rose Poly threatened repeatedly in the second half. Cedarville-0 - Ashland-18 The Jackets ended their '47 season at Ashland on a muddy rain drenched field. The Cedarville backs were unable to break away while Ashland capitalized on their superior weight. This was the final game for “Chink” Jewell, selected as an all-state guard AP newswriter. Ben McNulty also won a place in the back field on the mythical eleven. I 1918 YEI.LOW JACKETS FOOTOALI.

During the early season in-door work-outs in the gymnasium helped to get the players in shape for the season. The 47 record was five wins in eight games. The 5-1 victory over Xavier University with Marcus Townsley on the mound was one of the season high- lights. Townsley also threw a one hitter against Findlay in the opener. With the climax of the season, Virgil “Birdie McNulty closed his illus- trious athletic career at Cedarville.

Pleasant weather, a beautiful queen, and a football victory combined to make the day a success, A parade from the college to Cox Field began the pregram. During half- time cf the homecoming game the queen, Mrs. Jay Check, and her attendants, Mrs. Carl Watkins and Miss 3eatrice Knecht were introduced to the alumni. An alumni banquet was held in Alford Memorial Gymnasium in the evening and the annual homecoming dance ended the day’s fes- , i tivities. The queen and attendants were elec- ted by student votes. Mrs. Check is a freshman in the education department and Cedarville’s only woman veteran. Mrs. Watkins is a senior, Miss Knecht a soph- omore. 2uem ‘Tftent utUK A. J. HOSTETLER “None of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord: so then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living. Rom. 14:7-9 Professor and Mrs. A. J. Hostetler met their death in an automobile accident on Feb- ruary 13, 1948. Professor Hostetler was Dean of Education at Cedarville College for the past twenty years. He taught many classes during that period and influenced hundreds of students. His failure to pass an examination for certification as a teacher when he was seven- teen may account for his later success. He was in turn a class-room teacher, principal. county school supervisor, director of a normal school, and finally dean of education at Cedar- ville. At his death, he had completed nearly fifty years of teaching. Many school superin- tendents eagerly sought graduates of Cedar- ville College, confident that they would have good character and a sound basis of scholar- ship. One of his colleagues paid him a remark- able tribute when she said he was one of those rare teachers who can lift a student to heights of which he did not know himself capable. She congratulated the students who had been privi- leged to study with him. Long ago, two pupils said, “Did not our hearts burn within us, while he talked to us by the way and while he opened to us the scriptures? 50 John W. Bickett, D. D. Karlh Bull . . . . R. W. Ustick, D.
