1 ,f- '-H5 if MK' X TT:---v ,sr- DAVID PETERSON, Lemmon, South Dakota Pete is a fellow who has earned for himself a place of responsibility in the student body through a consistent demon- stration of steady dependability. Four years a member of the choir and four years a member of the varsity basketball team, he is always there to do his part. This year, the student body entrusted him with the office of vice-president, and he ends his chorale career as president of that group. He has served as chairman of the discipline committee, and has been a member of the literary society. His ability as a public relations man made him a natural for the Ambassadors gospel team in l960, and before entering seminary this fall, he will travel again with this year's group. Dave is an anthropology major, and looks forward eventually to the pastorate. l LINNIE SHORT, Columbus, Ohio If Linnie's college years were to be summarized in a word, it would have to be music, of course. Linnie possesses a singularly captivating soprano voice, and with such talent has been the soloist for the chorale for her four years. Having traveled with the choir on eight concert tours, there can be little other than consternation at the thought of her graduation. Her major in music received a boost in her junior year with the coming to campus of a music professor, and she anticipates teaching in that field. DAVID WINSCOTT, St. Louis, Missouri In Dave can be found a strange combination of a spiritual quality of quiet gravity and enthusiastic leadership of any worthwhile project. It has been such elements in his personality that have made him a member of the Christian Service Council of the college all three of the years since it was set up, and its president for the last two. He was student council vice-president in his junior year, and then became president of the senior class. Such a list of achievements gives only an indication of the respect which so many students have for his judgment, and of the size of the vacancy which he will leave. He is an anthro- pology major, and after a trip this coming year to Europe and the Holy Land, plans to complete his education at Covenant Seminary.

ROBERT EDMISTON, St. Louis, Missouri Here is personified a case of desirable preoccupation. The fact that Bob's activity on campus has been limited results only from the less lcnown fact that he is so busy with other worth- while things. just one example of his usefulness in the Lord's work is his position with the Youth for Christ organization in greater St. Louis, where he has capably served for some time as director of follow-up work. Bob is a history major, and his plans for the immediate future are somewhat indefinite. ROBERT FIOL, Kanpur, India Bob is an illustrious member of both the senior class and the Fiol trio that has been on the campus scene fon five long yea-rs. Always busy in the school's activities in an unofficial way, he became a member of the gospel team quartet in his junior year, and at the same time quite capably filled the large shoes usually worn by the chorale's business manager. That was the year of the vice-presidency for Bob, a position which he held in the chorale, in the John Knox literary society, and in his junior class. His last year has been the climax, however, for he reached the apex of any aspiring male student's accomplishments when he was narrowly elected president of the student body. A real go-getter, Bob is an anthropology major, and looks forward to serving on the mission iield after completing seminary. BETTE PAPIRNYK, Edmonton, Alberta Bette is a girl with a mind of her own, and as an inde- pendent thinker adds color to her class. She was a transfer student from Prairie Bible Institute and came the 3000 miles to her alma mater as a second semester freshman in the fall of 1958. Since then she has made her way through school with some academic success, while finding for herself a place in the hearts of many on campus. Bette's business-like approach has earned for her the job of class treasurer during her senior year, a. job capably filled, and has made her valuable in various secre- tarial jobs. Bette is an anthropology major. . -sr., we X1-rn 4-in 'T'

SHIRLEY WOODSON, St. Louis, Missouri Shirley has acquired at least two worthwhile things since she arrived 3,5 3, freshman: they are somewhat related, and yet distinct. The first is a husband, Rev. Robert Woodson, a Cove- nant Seminary alumnus, whom she married last june. The other was a missionary vision. Together, the Woodsons will leave this year, according to present plans, for their first term of service in Peru under World Presbyterian Missions. Shirley has been of particular service on campus with her secrctaflal abilities. These she has used for the sophomore class, for FMF, and for the student council in her junior year. An anthropology major, Shirley's trademark has been a refreshing English ac- cent, the result of her late arrival in this country during her high school years. THOMAS WOOLFOLK, St. Louis, Missouri With sufficient ambition to put two fellows through college, Tom has used it eliiciently on his own projects: the grind of studies, the responsibilities of raising a family, and the regular- ity of full-time employment. Tom transferred to Covenant to prepare for public school teaching, and although he will gradu- ate this year, he hopes to do graduate work in his major field of history before entering the teaching profession. PATSY WRIGHT, St. Louis, Missouri Pat is a transfer student from Monmouth College in Illinois, but has done most of her work in anthropology-sociology at Covenant since her arrival there in 1957. In 1959 she married Mr. Ray Wright, a seminary student who will graduate this year as well, and since that time has carried a somewhat lighter academic load. The Wrights have been active in the program of the Ballwin Presbyterian Church, and look forward to similar service upon the completion of their work.. - Jo-- is sr',-F' 51' 5 .nv -in IBN fn rf?
