1970 KUMI-ORI volume 24 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. (Isaiah 60:1) “Kumi-Ori” is the English transliteration of the Hebrew words, “arise, shine.” Chosen as the name of the Baptist College yearbook in 1947-48, these words indicate our goal in commitment to Christ: that we might be witnesses for Him throughout the world. Baptist Bible College 1001 East Beltline Ave., N.E. Grand Rapids, Michigan 49505 All aspects of college life feel 2 the impact of Christian commitment In Matthew 16:25 is recorded one of the most profound state- ments known to man: Jesus said, “Whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it.n This terse statement summarizes the simple requirement of the Christian Faith: total commitment to Christ and His gospel. The message of Christianity and its demands upon the disciple are antithetical to the wisdom of man. The world’s adive is to accumulate material things, to establish a secure future, to pro- mote the self. By contrast, Christianity says don't make the mate- rial world your major concern, submit the self to God, lose your life in commitment to Christ and you will find true satisfaction in the process. One of the concepts emphasized at Baptist College is that Christianity is not a religion; it is a way of life. Our goal is to integrate our Christian Faith into every aspect of col- lege life—the classroom, sports activities, social events and inter-personal relationships. For the Christian studying at Baptist College, as for Christians everywhere, com- mitment to Christ must affect every element of life. 3 At any given moment, students can be found at the extremes of physical and emotional stability 5 CONTENTS Academics 8 Student Life 22 Sports 68 Classes 82 Appendices 120 6 7 8 ACADEMICS The motto of Baptist College is “ac- ademic excellence and Christian commitment.” The faculty and cur- riculum here are distinctive because they are tempered by Christian com- mitment. The spiritual maturity of the faculty member becomes as impor- tant as his intellectual prowess. Like- wise, the integration of a Christian world-and-life-view into the curricu- lum is the factor which makes an education at the Baptist College so valuable to the individual who desires to make his education relevant to his Christian Faith. The new additions that have been made to the faculty and curriculum in the past year have been directed towards the ideals of “academic excellence and Christian commit- ment.” 9 Tempered by Christian commitment, a progressive W.

The words of Tennyson’s Ulysses seem almost to echo back the erudition and wide travel of Dr. Milford Henkel.

Campus events are keyed to provide for the exercise of mind as well as body, and seek to stimulate social, cultural and intellec- tual improvement. Drama, chorale, publications and the annual Bible Conference are examples of activities designed to involve the student outside of the classroom. Viewed from a unique, Christian perspective, they are oppor- tunities to relate Christianity to the many facets of a Christian’s life. 23 ' ‘Ihe Impossible Dream , played by Larry Jansen at the Frosh-Soph party, portends the future for freshmen as they strive to reach what may often seem to be the unreachable star. ” With a determined set to her jaw and a conquer- The first member of this year’s freshmen class to ring the victory bell is Lanny ing gleam in her eye, sophomore Sally Master DeWitt, plunging daunllessly into the future of the first year college student, serves to the routed freshmen in the Frosh-Soph girls’ volleyball contest. 24 Sophs initiate freshmen with tortures and fun “Power-mad sophomores had their three days of glory, freshman initiation, Wednesday through Fri- day, September 10-12. “Fashion Day,” Wednesday, began the fun. All freshmen had to conform to the new “dress code.” All clothing was worn backwards. Men wore mis- matched socks and greased-down hair. Women were required to wear nylons rolled down around the ankles and rollers in the hair. All had to fulfill any demands made on them by upperclassmen, and to begin acquiring the prescribed signatures on their beanies. Thursday was “National Defense Day.” Each freshman had to carry all books and supplies in a big brown bag. Whenever any sophomore blew a whistle the bag was emptied. Putting it over his head, the owner bad to fall to the ground shouting, “Air raid! Air raid!” The final day of initiation was “School Spirit Day,” which entailed wearing the school’s colors, blue and gold, and singing the school song when- ever it was requested. Faculty members received a bow or curtsy whenever met by a freshman. Friday night’s Frosh-Soph party reunited the opposing factions. The party was ended by the cere- monial ringing of the victory bell by each freshman. This signified that the class of 1973 had officially become part of the Baptist Bible College.

The drama department opened its sea- son with Edmond Rostand’s immortal “Cyrano de Bergerac”, presented in three evening performances and a matinee, Nov. 13-14, in the music auditorium. The unusual facilities necessitated many adaptations and original touches in pro- duction, the most notable being entrances through the audience and modified sce- nery. The most exciting scene was an actual duel on stage between Cyrano and Valvert. These modifications gave the production a lively originality and polish that never failed to please the audience. Exceptional performances were done by Jerry Sheveland as the intense poet with an abnormal size nose, and by Carol Ward as his unwitting love. The demanding lines and detailed action of the play presented a real challenge to the drama department. The maturity the stu- dents evidenced in the quality of acting and interpretation testify that this chal- lenge was well met. Its efforts again distin- guished the drama department as out- standing. 26 Sarcastic and bold, Cyrano challenges his enemy's mockery of his oversize nose.

Miracle Worker boosfs drama department here The portrayal of deaf and blind Helen Keller by blind student Lynn Wiggins made unique the production of “The Miracle Worker” by Baptist College students. The spring presentation further developed the relatively recent rise of dramatic art on this campus. Under the direction of Mrs. Eli- zabeth Osbeck, “The Mircale Worker” gave practical experience and technical know-how to students who plan to teach or who can use drama as a method for dispersing the gospel. Though hampered by inadequate facilities and equipment, “The Miracle Worker” deepened the experience of the whole student body in quality drama.

Mr. Bubar en- couraged students to set up personal and organizational purposes and goals, and emphasized the need to drive toward the accomplishment of them. Monday night’s mass symposium revealed that those attending the retreat possessed the basic quality of leadership—desire. Listening to the aims of S.M.F., A.F.G., Campus Herald, and student council, leaders evidenced their desire for a unified, progressive school in 1971. As criti- cisms and alternatives were suggested, students became increasingly honest in their responses.

Good meats are one aspect of touring enjoyed by all the members, liven on short week-end tours the students are not disappointed by the fare promded by the host churches. To touring chorale members the theme of the 1969-70 season seemed to be “concern.” Students were con- cerned that their actions as well as their music would honor Jesus Christ. Their effort was centered in a clear presentation of the gospel message and the realization that they were repre- senting Christ above their representa- tion of Baptist College. Spring tour took the students south and west to sing in churches interested in the school. They saw the Indiana- polis Speedway, and toured the Air Force Academy in Colorado, where they sang in the Academy chapel. All were duly impressed by the trip through the Rocky Mountains. The home area was not neglected as the chorale sang in local churches and in such campus events as the Christ- mas Artist Series and Bible Confer- ence. 49 mm Trio of Triumph sees shift in members Their tail year together, the Trio of Triumph, Donna Squires, Jeanie Bush, and Pris Marquardt, furnish a musical package during an S.M T Spiritual Emphasis Week.

Singing at the J969 Honor's Breakfast are Donna, Jeanie, and Pris, with Carolyn at the piano. These young women have translated their personal sincerity and ability into the aura that is the Trio of Triumph in the minds of Bap- tist College students in general and their fellow members of the junior class in particular. Formed this year, the Tones of Truth trio in- cludes sophomores Valeta Brown and Carol Ward with freshman Betty Lutke. Accompa- nied by their accomplished pianist, freshman Linda Shawback, the girls will go on a ten-week summer tour through the Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota areas. They will travel with various faculty members, repre- senting Baptist College to its constituent churches. 51 Women's chorus sees Below: Going over a score with Mr. Osbeck are officers Nancy Harper, secretary; Pam Irish, president; and Kathy Timmer. vice-president. Right. Women’s chorus member Paula Matte also plays clarinet in the orchestra. The purpose Baptist College stu- dents seek to fulfill through women’s chorus is that of praising and glorify- ing God by the musical talent He has bestowed upon them. In addition to a part in the Christ- mas Artist Series and a presentation during the Bible Conference, the women’s chorus, directed by Kenneth Osbeck, sings in churches in the Grand Rapids area. During a three-day tour in April the students ministered to churches in the Chicago area, with a half-day permit- ted to them for touring downtown Chicago. Encouraged by their warm reception in churches and the homes in which they stayed, the girls con- cluded a short but profitable tour.

Touring for ten weeks this summer in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, and West Virginia, the Conquerors Quartet will be joined by speaker Ted Christ- raann, of the Grand Rapids Baptist Seminary. The group is composed of junior Dave Slagg, sophomores Larry Fogle and Don Zwyghuizen, and freshman Dick Winne. The group’s accompanist is pianist Dennis Weiler. 53 Creating the perfect moody Or. Taylor verbally and musically guides the audience's reactions during Royalty weekend. Pep bond and orchestra add spirit, Performing as well for their one-man audience as for a large crowd, the orchestra carefully follows each cue from their director. 54 “Tiger Rag” is a familiar theme to Baptist College basketball fans because of tbe work of Dr. Gaylord Taylor in the organization and direction of the pep band. Composed primarily of wind ensemble members, the pep band adds atmosphere and enthusiasm to the intensity of feeling pervading the new gym during basket- ball season. The personal verve and vitality with which Dr. Taylor directs is allowed full expression as the pep band fills the gym urilh the Comet-sound. quality to events at Baptist College Directed by Dr. Gaylord Taylor, the Baptist College “brass choir” has matured into a wind ensemble. The addition of a set of tympani has made the organization equivalent to a small con- cert band. Under consideration for the orchestra’s near future are plans including a concert music presen- tation and an organized tour to various churches. Currently, the wind ensemble plays for churches in the Grand Rapids area, and for such school events as Royalty Weekend and commencement. The organization and development of the orchestra have added considerably to the stature of the Baptist College music department. The quality of the music and its performance are well in keeping with the high standards propounded by the school. Adding to game excitement and enthusiasm, pep hand's development indicates the increasing respect- ability of Baptist College Above Ai the first-term missionary, t arry Fogle, adjusts to his new surroundings, he is accosted by an unexpected visitor.

Marked by organization and expanded goals, Student Missions Fellowship has increased its influence upon Baptist College student life. The cabinet has written a new constitution and added by-laws concerning election procedures. A proposed amendment will allow sophomores as well as juniors and seniors to hold elected positions. S.M.F. held its first all-school social activ- ity this October, called “African Hallow- een. Creativity in pumpkin carving and portrayal of costumed roles motivated a posi- tive student response. Support in the amount of approximately $500 was raised for students working as summer missionaries. Five students went out in 1969. Five missions emphases were conducted, each featuring an executive member of a G.A.R.B.C. approved board. These men presented the opportunities for missions today and the role that their mission is ful- filling in meeting these opportunities.

In 1969-70, this goal has been approached through such means as a nursing home program and regular witnessing and passing out tracts at the airport, the bus sta- tion, and on the streets of Grand Rapids. The most widely publicized event spon- sored by Ambassadors is the annual Florida beach evangelism trip. Thirty-eight students and guest Mrs. Dorothy Casner travelled to the Bibletown Resort in Boca Raton. Baseball spring training and a conference featuring speakers Dr. Robert Cook, president of King’s College, and Rev. Bill McKee of Overseas Crusade, drew students from several other Christian colleges. Both of these men had profoundly practical messages for the hearts of all the students. The Baptist College and Cedarville College groups spent the afternoons on Ft. Lauderdale and Boca Raton beaches witnessing to the truth and power of Christ. When sunburns became intolerable, such places as the Chris- tian Science Reading Rooms came into the students’ sphere of activity. The personal spiritual growth and experi- ence gained, as well as the people who received Christ, made the trip abundantly greater in worth than the work and cost expended by the students to go.

Headed by editor Luke Wilson, the paper reached new heights in standards of writing and journalism. Editor Wilson resigned at mid- year, and the top-staff position was assumed jointly by sophomores Mike Hostetler and Jerry Shcveland. The new co-editors main- tained the Herald’s literary quality, coupled with the attempt to put it on a firm financial basis. Assistant editor Linda Ruedger, who re- ceived the Most Valuable Staffer Award, was among those involved in publishing the nine issues of the paper. Page editors were: Julie Ackerman, News; Luke Wilson, Opinion; Jack Wisener, Feature; and Bob Rogers, Sports. Layout work was done by Wendy VanZegeren, and Sylvia Rodgers was Business Manager. Faculty and student interest in the Herald has steadily increased. The publication of an efficient, effective student newspaper with improved standards and greater student in- volvement attests to the high quality in educa- tion being attained by Baptist College.

Kati Christensen works on page layouts. With the 1970 Kumi-Ori, its staff strives to meet a goal. That goal is not merely to publish a yearbook, but rather to make the annual a memory book of which its producers and the entire college can be proud. Seeking to produce a book of high quality without over-sentimentality, the Kumi-Ori attempts to depict Baptist College within the bounds of reality. By reason of day-after-day contact, the student authors of this book are not blind to the school’s weaknesses. The staff, nevertheless, is of the realistically optimistic opinion that this college is one of which stu- dents may be justly proud, in numerous areas including music, academics, sports, and Bibli- cal integrity. Ours is a peerless faculty—intel- lectually, spiritually, and in personal concern for students. Baptist College is maturing into a sophisti- cated institution of higher learning with the singular distinctive of being untnoveably rooted in the Person of Jesus Christ. 1970 Kumi-Ori staff: Thelma Prince, editor- in-chief; Tom Siefert, layout editor; Diana Wallis, literary editor; Jef Patterson, business manager; Sue Gehrett, photography co- ordinator; Linda Alfrey, Kati Christensen, Diane Thompson, Judy Vine, layouts; Grace Arkema, Cindy Butler, Bruce Hackworth, Luke Wilson, writers; Jerry Clum, Ron Crosser, Hershel Janes, Dave Slagg, photographers; Judi Baker, Tom Bevans, Cindy Hudeck, Ray Johnson, Debbie Shafer, Treila Townsend, general staff; Starr Eglinsdoerfer, Pam Irish, Lora Olin, Donna Squires, proofreaders and typists. 63 Conducting the polling for the election of 1970-7i Council Morrissey, secretary Jean Hush, and sophomore doss rep- officers are junior class representative Dooc Cage, Larry resenlative Daum Jameson.

Sponsoring the traditional social functions and acting as liason between students and administra- tion were the tasks grappled by Student Council during the 1969-70 year. Student Council’s Abundant Life Committee, headed by vice-president Bill Kellaris, brought Mr. Wendell Kempton from Baptist Bible Sem- inary, Clark’s Summit, Pa., to be the speaker for the fall Spiritual Emphasis Week. In April, a second Spiritual Emphasis was sponsored for the first time. Rev. King Butler of Kalamazoo conducted chapel, class, and dorm sessions. Doors to better communication between the student body and the administration were opened with the realization second semester of the goal of student representation on the College’s Student Affairs and Educational Policy committees. The hope of the Council is that the voice of the Student Association will be more readily heard through these channels. 65 1969 European study-four confronts students with At the parliament building in West Berlin's John Kennedy Square, touring students meet with three West German government leaders.

GcU‘. Two walls, tank traps, barbed wire, well-trained dogs, and towers manned by armed guards combine to form the worst propagan- da East Germany could produce—■the Berlin Walt. The sight of forever-separated relatives and friends waving across the in- surmountable barrier, and a cross silently marking the death- site of one who dared to attempt an escape made freedom a valued possession to members of the tour. Congratulated everywhere they went on the United States’ first moon shot, sobered by visual confrontation with Communism, and taught many lessons about life’s realities, members of the 1969 European study-tour returned with a broader outlook on life. Vague concepts— the oppression of bondage, the despair of poverty—became stark reality. While studying man’s greatest achieve- ments in drama, literature, and the arts, students also saw the worst man had to offer, represented by servitude, anguish, and the suppression of man’s ideals, goals and spirit. Tour members in 1969 gained far more from their trek than a firsthand knowledge of Europe’s physical appearance. They received an education in life itself. From the quiet peacefulness of the Lake Country to the gaiety of frolicing in the streets of Venice, each student returned with changed ideas and broadened views of the world and mankind itself. Students, faculty and their families packed the student center for a Japanese banquet in May. Inspired by Expo !0 in Osaka, the dinner was capped off by sukiyaki.

Five varsity sports— cross country, soccer, basketball, baseball, and track—allow for parti- cipation by both spectator and athlete throughout the school year. The commitment of the Baptist Col- lege athletes has been readily apparent in some of their outstanding perfor- mances in competition against larger and more experienced schools. As the athletic program continues to expand, it will provide an even greater and more rewarding outlet for energy and talent in the student body. 69 Above: Co! Co!

A firrn foundation is formed by freshman Shari Baker and Sally Babbitt, and sophomores Laura Mead, Linda Hoskins, and Marilyn Wood. “Go Comets—Fight!” echoed throughout the gymnasium as forty coeds began, training for cheerleading tryouts. As the training rou- tine toughened, the number of cheerleading hopefuls decreased. At the tryout, six girls were chosen to form the 1969-70 squad. First year cheerleaders, Sally Babbitt, Celeste DeRoin, and Barb Fields joined returning members, Kathy Rehn? Marilyn Wood, and captain Linda lloskins. Among the girls’ dreams for this season was that of new uniforms. Several faculty members made these a reality by their financial assis- tance. Mrs. Leon Wood willingly volunteered her services as seamstress to make the new outfits. Second semester changes on the squad saw four new girls drafted, bringing the total to seven. These were 'Yesbmen, Shari Baker, Carol Button, and Betty Lutke, and sopho- more Laura Mead. The squad’s spirit of unity, cooperation, and determination resulted in several new stunt-filled cheers, utilizing pompoms and the mini-tramp. These, with the aid of the pep-band, closed a spirited bas- ketball season. Leading women athletes in the college were chosen in fall Many of the girls left at the end of the semester, and tryouts fur the new squad Among them were Linda Has- tryouts were held again at the beginning of second semes- kins, Sally Babbitt, Marilyn Wood and Celeste DeRoin ter. 71 Cross country and soccer teams Cross country team First row.

Nine determined men com- peted against older and more experienced teams on the three and four-mile courses. The team lost all four season meets, but made a good showing for the first year of competition. Nine new runners were out for the 1969 season though no members of the previous team returned. Intense labor enabled them to win three out of the eight regular season meets. Baptist also took tenth place in compe- tition against thirteen other colleges at the Malone Invitational . Expecting several freshmen to join them, and encouraged by the second season results, the five returning runners anticipate a win- ning third season. Opponent B.B.C. G.R.

Twenty-five candidates tried out for the team. Out of a background of little experi- ence and minimum of practice the team plunged into the season with a first game loss to Montcalm Com- munity College. But when the season ended the total was seven wins and six losses. The top three batters were: John Shick, .372; Jess Burton, .295; and Kerry Kirkley, .293. Pitchers were: Larry Scharer with four wins and three losses, with a 2.18 E.R.A.; Bruce Van Antwerp with a 1-3 season and 3.12 E.R.A.; and relief pitcher Jess Burton threw 2-0 with a 2.45 E.R.A. The team’s batting average was .226. The encouragement of this season’s record and of the new baseball field to be completed by next year makes the future look bright for baseball as a varsity sport at Baptist College.

Juniors prominent in campus leadership In every aspect of student life here at Baptist Bible College, juniors are found in leadership positions. Student Council officers, Norm Kaddatz, Bill Kellaris and Jean Bush, are members of the junior class. Student Missions Fellowship president Hershel Janes and all other elected S.M.F. officers are juniors, as are many of that organization’s most active workers. The Resi- dent Assistant staff is composed almost entirely of members of the junior class. Beyond positions of campus leadership, juniors are church leaders. Several men have had opportunities to preach in various churches or at mission and jail services.

Sophomores promise strong contribution to After giving the freshmen their traditional three days’ of abrasion during initiation, the sophomores settled down to the business of making their second year at Baptist College a worthwhile one. Conversely to the idea of a “retreat,” the Sophomore “Advance” advocated a positive attitude toward the school year currently in progress. Aimed at renewing and maintaining class unity, the Advance speakers were faculty members Dr. Beals, who taught a Bible study method, and Dr. Clark, leading a study in Ecclesiastes. Sophomore ingenuity was brought to bear on raising Student Project funds. A basketball game between freshmen and sophomore girls was complete with rather masculine-looking cheerleaders and a very professionally-done concert starred The King’s Three and Steve Troyer. The unique contribution of the class of 1972 to Baptist College has been a number of refreshingly imaginative approaches to college life here. 100 Class of 1972 officers: Jerry Sheveland, president: Len Cane, trice-president; and Juanita Sweeney, treasurer.

Freshmen amass largest project contribution The freshman class this year began with the excitement of initiation and an air of the unknown for the 284 new students at B.B.C. In October the class produced a very suc- cessful hayride under the competent leader- ship of its officers. As the students became accustomed to the study routine of college life they began to explore the social atmosphere more closely. Seeking to expand social activities, the freshman class again produced a party for the entire student body with comic films of W. C. Fields and “Charlie Churchman’’—a serious comment on Christianity today. The freshman class was also very aware of their roll in the Student Project, and its members gave approximately $650, the largest contribution. The class collected this amount through a series of offerings in the class meet- ings along with concessions at basketball games, and penny tosses. The year ended with a picnic which was disturbed by final exams and rainy weather. The first year of college experience was a very rewarding one for the students of the freshman class at Baptist College. 108 Ken Adams Linda Alfrey Dave Allen Angie Andrus Grace Arkema Paula Averill Sally Babbitt Bob Rabcock Judy Baker Shari Baker Kathy Balbach Steve Balbach Debbie Barres Paul Beadle Jim Bcarup Bruce Beckett Martha Beglin Roger Belknap Helen Benson Carl Benton Senior R.A.

GL 9-7247 Editors offend hearing on student rights In mid-April, an open meeting of the Spe- cial Committee on the Total Citizen Partic- ipation Student Rill of Rights was con- vened in Michigan’s House chambers. Five editors from the two school publica- tions attended the Lansing hearing with students from high schools and colleges throughout the state. Representative Jackie Vaughn (D., Detroit) presided over the hearing which provided an opportunity for students to express their views concerning several proposals. Attention centered on the often-discussed constitutional amend- ment which would extend voting rights to IS year olds. In an afternoon of testimonies, only two or three students opposed the lower voting age. 130 Controversial V.P. Agnew at Vandenberg Center Several Baptist College students were among the crowd of approximately 4,000 people who gathered in Grand Rapids' Vandenberg Center on September 30th. Speaking at the Center’s dedication ceremonies was Vice-President Spiro T. Agnew. Concluding his prepared speech, Mr. Agnew chose to acknowledge the presence of the less than fifty SDS demonstrators who had caused some disturbance earlier and were ogain growing restless. Saying, ''Everyone wants peace, but we cannot have it until all men are free from murder and nutssacre —a polite attack on the SDS concept of obtaining peace only through iholence—the Vice-President ended by stating that the United States must extricate itself from our commitment to mankind ' (Vietnam) only in such a way os to retain our honor and dignity. ” 131 Faculty members participate in school Above: Austerely ending her predictions, Mrs. Virginia Sisson strides past her husband at the junior-senior banquet.
