% ovum 9 With hearts full of hope and divine inspira- tion, we have taken many vital steps in our lives this year at W. M. C. The influences that we leave behind us stand firm, perhaps to help mold the motives of those who follow us. Our sincere hope and desire is that we have contributed some- thing of value, that we have not left unprofitable “footprints” to mar the remembrance of our having been here. An uttered prayer, silent periods of meditation—these have been import- tant factors in guiding our intentions and desires in the paths of wisdom. We have attempted to comprehend the fact that this is our day and that what we accomplish now will determine the foot- prints which we leave behind in the shifting sands of time. We have lived this year at Central with a consciousness of Christ going before us, leading us gently by the hand, both through the shadows and o’er the sunlit hills.

Hilson has guided the school through two and one-half years of growth—planning, building, and financing. He bears the heavy load resting upon his shoulders with the calm assurance of one who seeks wisdom from an all- wise Father, knowing that through Him all things are possible. Competent and efficient, Mrs Frances Allred, secretary to the presi- dent, kept in proper running order the machinery that makes a school go. rjCocal koard o VjanayerS PRESIDENT J. B.

We leave behind us footprints; not only scars on the worn floors of the Ad building, the tangible evi- dence of our feet having passed this way, but also imprints of the way we walked in such intangible, but lasting things as character and faith. School of 0Uon Arvle Parker, Theological Special President Fred Hughes, Theological President Responsibility rests heavily upon the shoulders of our ministerial stu- dents, for they ore the future leaders of our church, guiding the sheep of His pasture aright. Their lives must be consecrated wholly to the Divine Guide—spirit-filled and prayer-filled. Our theologs , as they are af- fectionately called, area vital part of W. M C, which is above all else a Christian school where young people may receive training for the Master’s work. They are the mainsprings in the religious activities, but they also have a part in other extra-curricular activities. The warm smiles they radiate as we meet them on the campus day by day—their sportsmanship—the sound of their earnest voices rising in prayer—these characterize our preacher boys and girls who have laid aside all weights and are pressing toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

C haractcr. scholarship, partici- pation in extra-curricular activi- ties, and personality—these arc the factors which determined the choices the faculty and student committee made for Who’s Who. 1 liirdie Dav is Sophomores Hundreds of steps — sometimes faltering—over a seemingly hopeless trail of heavy books, hard exams, and long parallel assignments—are sud- denly at an end. Before us lie many new paths. The road signs confuse us, for they signify numerous walks of life. However, we do not take into our hands the problem of choosing which to follow, for before us walks a Guide whose wise and loving hand will pilot us safely through the confusion of a restless world. Is it possible, after years of toil involving a much-chewed pencil, that our English and trig books are closed We recall our arrival here — frowning at Teter Hall, smiling at McDonald, giggling at Smith, and quaking as we entered the Ad building And now, as we realize that we will never enter these familiar halls as students again, our hearts are filled with unspeakable sadness. Our freshman hayride (that turned out to be a haywalk ); the banquet we gave the sophomores in the impressive private dining room of the Ottaray”; and above all, our own wonderful sneak and the banquet given us as grad- uates—all these will bring smiles to our faces, and perhaps tears to our eyes, when in future years we thumb wistfully through our albums labeled “W. M. C.” But now before us lies a vast expanse of opportunity as we lift our eyes and face the distant horizons. Prof. G. R.

College Freshmen We freshmen are still dazed from the shock of finding our first year in college such a drastic change from high school days. Ever our lament would be What, oh what, can I write my theme on for Friday Nevertheless, we experienced emo- tions varying from pride to pathos, de- pending upon whether we were giving the banquet, or wondering in puzzled amazement where the sophomores were when they took their sneak The year has been fun in spite of all the bewild- erment, and we are smug in the realization that next year we will be lofty upper-classmen.

Are we happy?5 Definitely yes. Be- hind us are four joy-packed years— years of studying, working, playing, worshipping together. There is much to be remembered—picnics and class meetings, returning from our fresh- man initiation in a three-legged walk, damp and mud-spattered. How thrilled we were over the success of the banquet which we as juniors planned for the seniors in “The Carden of Tomorrow. Surprising everyone by not sneaking off on our “sneak was fun; the luxurious hotel was wonderful, then there was our final banquet; class- night; and now commencement. When the school bell rings next fall some of us will be entering college here, while others will be entering upon an en- tirely different life But wherever our steps may lead, of one thing we are certain—if we humbly and faithfully follow in the footprints of Jesus, the ways we choose will be right Black-robed, smiling-faced, hurrying eagerly out the chapel door, diplomas clutched tightly, the future before us.

A cry of sandwiches, donuts ringing through the dorms after study hour, or a line of students waiting to be ad- mitted to the dining hall after a liter- ary program meant that the Juniors were on their toes for opportunities to swell their class treasury. Their efforts were rewarded by the gratified oh’s ’ and ah’s of the Seniors as they entered a candlelit dining hall for a lovely Junior-Senior banquet Dear to the hearts of the juniors is the thought that next year they will be the feted upper-classmen.

Octopus, Davis version In the development of our spiritual and social lives, a wdi as of our talents and physical culture, were made through ther medium of extra-curricular activities. Yes, our days we e filled with instructive lectures and our nfgh homework, but we took time f6roVher equally ™por£dnt things One could seldom approach tWe campus witHout hearing prayer being offered audply from a dormitory or the strains of a familiar hymn floating stt dn the air in strong, clear notes We served Cod on Canegof H i 11, besides writing up chemistry experiments and translating Spanish. 11 was not an uncommon thing for the Spirit oiShe Lord to break in upon our Tuesday and Thursday evening prayer services, creating in our midst a revival spirit. Without the spiritual the temporal would have been in vain. 11—it’s a long pass down the field1 It’s a touch- down!” Our bodies ne che ercise, too, so we spent some time in clean but hard, rompetytive play. Many took interest in athletics, and out f this $rcup came star players, of whom we were proud, sx The soqalhj on the campus captured the intense inter- st of many otTjs. A Friday evening glance at McDonald Hall or a Sunday evening stroll across the campus teardrop would reveal a sparkle in the eyes of many campus couples. Literary societies also afforded occasions for co-ed social entertain- ments. We are grateful to Cod for a school that provides activi- ties which encourage high morals and properly develop the physical and social aspects of young lives. A spiritual enlargement among the students is the initial activity of the church and school. The chief objective which our college church endeavors to achieve is to aid in the preparation of men and women for the challenge of His universal call. Because of this solemn obligation the student body cherishes the influence that radiates from it. The task of being pastor of a church for both college and community is no mediocre one. It requires a minister who is deeply interested in his people—and just such a man is the Rev. George Failing, We appreciate the fellowship with his family and his warm smile and friendly hello when he approaches us on the campus. His messages are heart-searching and spiritual, yet interesting and especially adapted to our needs. Reverend Georce Failing, Jean, Joy, and Mrs. Failing Fall Revival Reverend O. C. Wilson I Ik Student Body was very fortunate in having as the evangelist for the fall revival Rev. O. G. Wilson, editor of the Wesleyan Methodist Sunday School literature. Being greatly interested in the youth of the church, he proved a blessing to even one. His spiritual and practical messages, together with his laiherty counsel, helped more titan one discouraged student to lift up his head and press forward with new cal to conquer The College Conference The members of the college conference have only two cpialtlnaiions to meet they must be willing workers, and they must have a Christian experience The group meets rvguariy everv Mon day evening, and on Sunday afternoons separate group conduct Sunday Schools for the colored and white children in the village, while other groups visit the stockade, jail. and old folks home Saturday afternoons usually find a group holding street services down town. Leading the l t around them to Christ is the task of the conference members. Y. M. W. B. I his has been a profitable year lor the Young Missionary Work ers' Band.

When Sidney Loggins stepped to throw one of Ins long, spiral passes, or when Bill James reached high to catch a seemingly impossible pass, a thrill ran through the crowd of spectators that ended in a loud triumphant cheer. tivitie K e e w a n i s F d d t b a 11 T earn Eugene Smith Buddy Green George N’altey Sidney Loggins Jimmy Freeman I lerman Latving Lee Newton Norman Pace Football Scores P.L.S.
