P1-.xNS, nEsir:Ns, Plioros, copy, type, time, effort, and discouragement are a few of the ingredi- ents which go into the publishing of a school's yearbook. Those members of the 1959 Tartan -staff who shopped for these elements, and then stirred them in the proper proportions learned more in the process than they ever would have claimed they knew at the first. Led by editor-in- chief Neal Cooper, who also was responsible for the photography work, assistant editor Darlene Rhyne, layout artist Jeanne Morris, copy editor Den XVallis, and business manager and typo- grapher ,loel llelz worked far into the summer in an attempt to adequately describe Covenant life. llr. R. Allan Killen was a most helpful faculty adviser. XVe must leave room for improvement next year, was the excuse always offered to a difficult problem, VVhile the staff's best efforts were even- tually expended, it was constantly their hope that this year's annual should only be a stepping stone to better things ahead. THE BAGPI PE STAFF AFFORDING PRACTICE IN WRITING to members of a freshman English class, as well as in- forming Covenants large public constituency, the Bagpipe performs a double purpose. VVritten with the uninformed reader in mind, the paper assumes nothing. Its duty is to acquaint hundreds of friends with the way of life at Covenant. XVith VV. Ben Wiallis jr. as editor, the class of writers attempts always to bring the most interesting news and opinion from around the Campus. Gebb, Relz, Ht-yes, Mainland, Sanderson, K Smith, Bader, R.

DISCUSSION CLUB 'vm pgs ESIGNED TO Give practical answers to practical questions, the seminary discussion club last year delved into three problems especially bothersome in the ministers life. Under the chairmanship of Xllill Barker, the group discussed the principles of canonicity of the New Testament, and discovered widely divergent views on the issue of the relationship of worldliness and the life of the Christian. In the final gathering, Father Columba Cary-Elwes of the St. Louis Priory addressed R a large audience on his views of fundamentalism and Roman Catholicism. A lively discussion followed. The club's adviser was Professor Vvilber B. XVallis: assistants in programming were John Sandri and VVerner Mietling. M ?

With the start of the second semester this year came also the beginning of Covenants first student- published, onecampus newspaper. .Xttempting tu mirror in accurate focus the various activities in the life of the college family, the new Tl11'.yt!t'also expresses editorial views on current campus issues. The bifweelcly lniltlicatioii derives its name, of course, from Scotland's famous flower. litlitor for the first year was XV. lien XX':1llis -lr., and .loel llelz was associate editor and publisher. Pro- fessor lflmer Smick was chosen as faculty adviser. DISCIPLI E COMMITTEE Bd, D, ,.,,,,, Gel, Ttr ILRR may be human, but the Christian must real- ize the absolute necessity of conforming to the rules of society. To see, lirst of all, that laws are obeyed, and to show, secondly, that when disobedience occurs crime does not pay, the discipline committee has been set up as a suborganization of the student council. With council vice-president David Fiol as chair- man, committee members Arlo Johannes, Miriam Malkus, Dorcas Gebb, and Joel llelz heard of the mis- deeds of ogending Covenanters, and passed down judgment upon them. The committee has the power to administer the two lesser forms of discipline: for minor wrongdoings the campus is inflicted, and for those more grave, the delinquent may be restricted.
