Some- times we seemed to be climbing a mountain that con- tinually grew higher. Now that we have reached the top, we invite you to pause with us as we review the climb. We invite you to rejoice with us in the satisfac- tion of having attained this height, with the expecta- tion of greater achievements as we go onward, still serving our Lord. The limb I.

For it is in Him that all the fulness of Deity continues to live embodied, and through union with Him you too are filled with it. Col. 2:8-10a fWil- liamsj The Greeks had a notion that one who exercised his powers of reason and developed a system of pagan thought had reached the fulness of life. Paul, in his epistle to the Colossians, warned against the influence of these persons who held views that were disparaging to the person and work of Christ. Some would like to have made spoil of them, taking them away from Christ to the kind of fulness the Greeks claimed to have attained. It was a vain deceit, a form of teaching that was blown up with the winds of human reason. The substance of their error is pointed up by the phrase not according to Christ. They had accepted Christ according to a heathen system of thought instead of conforming their be- liefs to Christ. There is great danger that people will consider Christ in the light of other things instead of considering the issues they face in the light of Christ. The answer to the desire to know is to be found in the fulness of Christ. His incarnation demonstrated the indwelling of Deity personally, really, and sub- stantially. By Him came Divine grace and eternal truthg in Him we have a completeness that satisfies every longing of the human heart. We participate in the fulness of Christ by the power of a continuous faith in Him, and by constant obedience to the Spirit of God. Through Him we have the forgiveness of our sins, power to gain victory over evil, a Light to show the way of eternal life, and a Hope to deliver us from the presence of sin. Knowledge and ex- perience of this sort yields the deepest satisfactions in human relations. May you grow through the years in your appreciation of the Bible, for Thy Word is Truth. --fofm R.

In a large sense they represent you through the Virginia Conference, by whom they are elected. They are the men who are largely responsible for gathering in the money needed to construct new buildings on the campus. Their outstanding work of the past two years has been the construction of the commodious Women's Dormitory and a central heating plant adequate for FELLOWSHIP LUNCH: Board of Trustees and Faculty the needs of all the campus buildings. At present the heating plant operates for the Administration Build- ing and the two completed floors Qbasement and sec- ond floorj of the new dormitory. These men are men of proven business ability who are concerned not only for the financial, but also for the spiritual needs of the school. They need your support and prayers. Eleven ean. is Wneaaage Dear Graduates of the Class of 1951: Congratulations to you' on the completion of the strenuous tasks leading to your diplomas. I am very happy for the privilege of giving you a parting mes- sage. Perhaps you would expect me to paint a rosy picture for you, showing an easy road by reason of your present achievement, with nothing especially hard to face in the future. You may even feel that there are no longer any challenges to be faced by youth. If you had only lived in the days of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Paul, Menno Simons, or J. S. Coffman, life would be worth living. To some former classes I keyed my message to the note of the then present time of crisis. A crisis is still with us, its issues carry the possibility of world- wide chaos. In the face of this we dare not become insensitive to present peril or to the demands for endurance in a time of testing. Your commencement could be the beginning of a baptism of suffering, In .iZ5irecfor 0 .Mg Dear Class of 1951- You will soon be leaving the campus. You have been with us for four years or less during which time you were subject to our influence, teaching, guidance and daily living. You have been an in- spiration to us, we will miss you. In a sense we have sheltered and protected you. Eagerly you look for- ward to the new experiences of entering into life free and unrestrained by your teachers. You are fac- ing a cold and unsympathetic world. Areyou pre- pared? Wliat preparation have you received here? Have we met the challenge of your mental curiosity, your social emotions, your physical vigor, and your spir- itual needs? Have we failed? Have you responded? Have you seen in our lives and living more than Twelve a time that presented just this sort of outlook, jesus braced His followers with these words, By your en- durance you will gain your lives. With a few bold strokes Christ had given a graphic picture of the future. It contained nothing of optimism, only false Christs, wars, earthquakes, famines, pestilences, ter- rors, great signs from heaven, and persecution. jesus' warning pointed to a way of life in the presence of death. This way of life is achieved only by patient endurance, by a brave holding out under most ad- verse conditions. To suffer for Christ, yes, to die for Him may seem like losing one's life. Let us learn that what is lost is transient, what is gained is eternal. As our Lord's triumph was by way of death so may yours be if God chooses thus to be glorified. An affectionate farewell, Clrerler K. l.ebma1l, Demi A Sckoofji meddage mathematics, science, language, history, Bible in- struction and business? Have our lives made a con- tribution to your life through our effort to exemplify Christ, to do and to say what He would, and to be interested in the cause He is? Our chief concern is not what we may have done to help you earn more money, or to be more cultured, or to become more popular in your community. We are concerned with your spiritual preparation and armor, we want to see in you a good soldier of the cross, valiant, bold to speak, fearless to defend, and courageous to press forward conquering more ter- ritory for Christ. Our hope lies in you, our prayers follow you, and your Alma Mater is confident that you will be true to your class motto. May God bless you. D.

In fact, they are so busy that they are unable to End time to do all that needs to be done. For this reason we have on the administrative staff of the college a number of faculty assistants. These assistants do just what their name suggests, they assist the faculty by teach- ing or being in charge of laboratory periods. Each of these assistants fills an important place, whether it be in the biology lab, the classroom or on the gym floor directing a physical education class. Most of these faculty assistants are taking either a full or a part time college course in addition to their work. This means doing two jobs at once. Fortunately, in a number of cases there is a Mrs. Faculty Assistant to be the assistant to these busy assistants to the busy faculty! -Amie Frey TOP CENTER, LEFT: Faculty Assistants.

Many of them take over Mother's or Father's jobs as housekeeper, cook, nurse, spiritual counselor, disciplinarian, or friend. Others help in offices such as the Business, Information, and Registrar's Offices, in the Library, and in maintaining equipment and services. Many of them work with little notice from most of us, but we would quickly notice them if at dinner time no meal appeared in the dining room, or if the maintenance men failed to stoke the furnace. The Ofhcieaux are helpers of large importance in keeping the machinery of life running smoothly at E.M.C.

In the limb Upward we climb with resolute steps Forward we look with hope To life's great Climb. Our guide is the Guide of the Agesg With Him to lead the way Gladly we face the years. mgkfy jkru goo! Commitment to a cause gives direction to life. For the Christian, devotion to service for Christ makes life meaningful. Today our vision of service remains somewhat idealistic and theoretical. Within the com- ing years we are expecting to make practical our theory, to try our ideals in the crucible of the world. We have no proof now of the worth of our ideas. We only know the worth of our message. It will demand the strongest faith to act in this age, in the face of the mighty machinations of evil. It will require the finest ways of presenting the gospel of Christ that we can muster. With our ultimate aim to glorify Christ and having our faith in Him, we have a source of comfort in knowing that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but 'Mighty Thru God' to the pulling down of strongholdsf' With a consciousness of this truth, may we make our commitment even more complete. A -Daniel M. Krady, Clan Prerident Kfarifi oem -mgdfg jhru goo! ANNA, FREY Lord, make us strong, The world has need of strong souls for this hour When fear and hate are choking out the light Of love and understanding sympathy. When might of arms or threat of crashing blows ls silencing the truth: ' When men decry the wrong but stand Like pitiful strawmen powerless to help Because fear keeps them weak And lack of faith has robbed them of the strength Lord, teach us to be strong By breaking us Until, bereft of every strength of self We turn to Thee And claim Thy Spirit's power. Teach us the secret of that hidden strength Thy Spirit's fulness brings When losing self we find ourselves in Thee, Resting in faith, and by that faith made strong To conquer sing valiant for truth Men gain from Thee to battle sin. Standing like unhewn rocks or sturdy oaks Against the thunder crash of fear and doubt That shakes our world. Teach us to be strong souls, Mighty through Thee to conquer in Thy power.

There were not many of us, but we learned to know each other better and to work with each other in the various activities of the year. During the evening of our social as we played, ate, sang, and worshiped around the fireplace in the Park afternoon we spent helping our adviser, Brother Charles Hostetter, to grade his lawn was a pleasant one, and then Brother Charles did his part-a de- licious meal! The Junior-Senior outing afforded us the privilege to share with our upper classmen. It was our pleasure to entertain them before they leave the halls of E.M.C.

No, we have not been burdened with freshman tests, nor are we preparing for graduation, but we have broken an old tradition by selecting our class motto this year instead of waiting until we are seniors. It was our conviction that our motto should go with us through college, as well as life. Under the competent guidance of our sponsor, Brother Mark Stauflfer, we have chosen Forward in Faith as our motto. Its full implications were given to us by a panel discussion in one of our class meetings. The pleasant evenings we spent in fellowship around a glowing fire in the home of our sponsor helped to foster among us a spirit of goodwill and cooperation. This spirit has been very evident as we worked together in behalf of the dormitory, and in the many other capacities which opportunity af- forded. Although we represent seven states and Canada, Holland, and Germany, and have a diversity of interests, our prayer is one: that we may exalt Christ as we go Forward in Faith. -Alice Marlin COLLEGE SOPHOMORES-FIRST ROW: Mark Staulfer, Sponsor: Hazel Miller, Alice Martin,Paul Shank, Clarence Rutt, Charles Pellman, Ruth B.

We were initiated with a legion of tests, we survived these to enjoy the overnight hike in the mountains and the tour over Skyline Drive to Luray Caverns. After wading through registration and sev- eral days of wandering through a maze of unknown rooms and lobbies to class, we were full-fledged col- lege students. We new students chose Brother George R. Brunk as our adviser. We elected officers as follows: president, Rowland Shank, vice president, Eugene Herr, secretary, Anna Mary Augsburgerg treasurer, Alice Longeneckerg business manager, Vernon Glick. We are entering into college life with much en- thusiasm, and we have already received much from it. E.M.C. has ninety-nine more pilgrims on the trek toward a place among her alumni. -Iobn Denlinger FRESHMEN-FIRST ROXV: I.uke Horst, Marie Detweiler, Robert vDetweiler, Ruth' Martin, Carl Rudy, Dorothy Lehman, George Brunk, Sponsor: Anna Mary.Augsbprger, Claude Good, Miriam Hollinger, R.owland Shank, Alice Longeneckerg SECOND ROXV: Lois Martin, Lois Miller, Elma Riehl, Mary Riehl, Sylvia Mast, Ethel Yoder, Esther Peachey, Lucy Vance, Ruth Brubaker, Jean Riehl, Catherine Roth, Emma Martin, Ruth Qantzi, Doris Jantzi, Esther Gehman, Margaret ,Iantaig 'IHIRD ROW: Beland Schlabach, Aquilla Riehl, Anna Videman, Myrtle Brenneman, Alma Buckwalter, Sadie Renno, Jolyce Frey, Pearl Schrack, Ruth Birlfy, Ada Kin , Dorothy Hoge, Verna Graham, Sadie Mast, Ruth Hackman, Ver in Proctor, Kenton Brubaker, FO RTH ROW5: Theodore Trmoshtchuk, Lydia Burkhart, Louise Croyle, Catherine Mumaw, Gecirigra Helmrck, Avinell Ketterman, man Good, Ethel Mumaw, Martha Wagner, Ruth Mohler, llean Stutzman, arilyn Stutzman, Rebecca Zook, artha Mann, julia Yoder, Helen Althouse, Edna May: FIF H ROW: john Overholt, Ezra Peachey, Wilbur Lentz, Jonas Christner, David Swartzentruber, Luke Stoltzfus, Carl Byler, Robert johnson, jay I.andis, John Lapxpa Robert Shetlcr, Clare Schwartzentruher, Floyd.Zehr, gpseph Diller, jacob Frederick, james Bender: SIXTH RO : Virgil Stoltzfus, Addona Nisslsy, Leroy Nissley, oy Burkholder, Clyde Rohrer, David Herr, Eu ene Herr, Paul Frey, Vernon Glick, Irvin eaver, Carl Metzler, john Martin, Wesley Ropp, Henry Wilfong, jgohn Denlinger, Elmer Miller, john Horst: SEVENTH ROW: Dean Shetler, Robert Lollins, James Gingerich.

Thirty-five gdridfian mr era, ourde As the doors of E.M.C. again opened last Septem- ber, the Christian Workers' Course found its place within its walls for the first time. Fourteen of us, with eager hearts and willing minds, were happy to have the privilege of enrolling for this course. We were under the guidance of capable teachers, and through them we were led into a dawning of new knowledge and understanding. We chose Broth- er Ernest G. Gehman as ,our class adviser and appre- ciated his willingness to lead us. We were thankful to have opportunities for Chris- tian service under the Y.P.C.A. We shall not forget the enjoyable times we spent together in the prayer circles, week-end conferences, socials, and many other activities. We feel we have been benefited by our year here in the many experiences that taught us profitable things. Our prayer is that with these experiences He will grant us the wisdom and strength to use them for His service. --Rmb Tbomar CHRISTIAN WORKERS-FIRST ROW: Lena Beachy, Betty Leatherman, Gladys Baer, Vice-President, Mary Miller, Mary Histand, Secretary, SECOND ROW: Sadie Stoltzfus, Ruth Thomas, Edith Amstutz, Fannie Myers, Treasurer, Edna Zookg THIRD ROXV: Ernest Gehman, Sponsor, Douglas Kennel, XVilson Derstine, Jesse Zook, President.

Their stay on the campus has helped all of us to appreciate more fully the international scope of Christianity. -Daniel Herlzler Hans XViehler. we flncfarkiihecloli e Variety expels monotony. What an interesting ad- venture is the life of the unclassified. There is 'no need of traveling to and from class meetings, no-need of class dues worries. One saves both time and money in being unclassified. We learn to l-:now and appreciate not only our fellow unclassifieds, but we sit in class with Fresh- men, Sophomores, juniors, and Seniors. We have more time to enjoy our courses: we can relax be- tween our few classes rather than rush to our next class, for chances are we don't have two in consecu- tive order. Of course for all these many privileges we do for- feit trips to Washington with the juniors or outings with the Seniors or taffy pulls with the Freshmen and Sophomores, but that again saves time and money. We not only study, but our extra daily hours allow us to catch up on letter writing, outside reading, and housework ffor the married unclassifiedsj. Perhaps you're content where you are. If not, do join us-we welcome new members any time into our happy unclassified circle. -Belly King COLLEGE UNCLASSIFIED--FIRST ROXV: Katherine Hallman, Ellen Shearer, Mary Florence Shenk.

The total enrollment for the summer was hfty-five. Courses were ofiered in social sciences, language, Bible, mathematics, literature, natural sicences, and teacher training. Most of the classes were small, so we got well acquainted with one another. The summer was not without social activities. There was a program and weiner roast in Park Woods. There was also a get-acquainted social at Park Dorm and a party at the Suters. The biggest event was School Day Out at Nat- ural Chimneys. There were also opportunities for Christian service. As we left the school at the end of the summer, we took with us many pleasant memories. -Helen Altbofue SUMMER SCHOOL-FIRST ROW: H. A. Brunk, Ivan Magal, M. T. Brackbill, Mrs. Ruth Brackbill, Mary F.

Wie have undergone many changes since that time. I am sure that none of us has regretted the happy times we have spent at E.M.C. As we go forth into our various fields of service, we will often remember with joy the many blessings that we re- ceived in our Alma Mater. We will have many opportunities to serve our Master in the future years. Our days spent at E.M.C. will provide us with confidence for these tasks. Then we will go on trusting Him, believing in our motto ln Christo Stamus f In Christ We Standnj. -fame: Herfzler, Clan Preriderzl Cfadd oem - Qu 6Ari5f M12 gan!

When earthly gain does not remain, When we no good can seeg When we've no rest and foes molest, Let this our comfort be: We cannot lose if Christ we choose And on Him stand. Then, shall we say until that day When we shall see His face, And rest upon His tender breast And feel His kind embrace: Oh! let us be, dear Christ, in Thee, And on Thee stand!

We are fifty-seven people who have come to E.M.C. from eight different states we found a person who was somewhat of an intellec- tual. Quite frequently we would meet someone with an abundance of humor. The juniors, like any other class, have many plans for the future. We are all looking forward to the time when we too shall receive our diplomas. To fill well the place God has planned for our lives is our noblest ambition. -Twila Yoder HIGH SCHOOL ,IUNIORS-FIRST ROXV: Daniel Suter, Sponsorg ,Ioan Weldy, XVilhur Maust, Vice'Pi'esidentg Twila Yoder, Secretary, Samuel Nveaver, Presidentg Doris Detweiler, Treasurerg Robert Hertzler, Business Man- agerg Mona Basye, Mark Rohrer, Lois Steiner, SECOND ROXV: Melba Kiser, Dorothea jacohs, Rosalie XVyze, Mary Ellen Stutzm'an, Shirley Schrock, Ruth Smucker, Eunice Kauffman, Gladys Lehman, Letha Miller, Marilyn Ruth, Ruth Showalter, David Burkholderg THIRD ROXV: Clarence Kratzer, Sara Stahl, Caroline Zook, Martha King, Rosalie Harman, Mary Lapp, Vada Yoder, Ella Coffman, Carol johnson, Louise Brenneman, Margaret Wenger, Esther Hcatwole, Joanne Kratzg FOURTH ROXV: Martha Risser, Marie Kuhns, Neil Gamber, lrvin Coffman, Glen Steffen, Harold Heatwole, james Rhodes, jewell Marie Gross, Grace Shenk, Keith Esch, David Milllerg FIFTH ROW: Paul Gamber, Harlan Steffen, Clyde Bergey, David Brunk, Frcd Shank, joseph Hertzler, David Allen, Robert Eshleman, Sanford Shank, Robert Mast. to receive the required number of wrinkles in our gray matter.

This year in our campus duties we have met new opportunities and responsibilities which will be strengthening to our spiritual and physical lives in the future. There are yet many more obstacles and opportunities which can be met only by our own willpower, the guidance given to us by our parents at home, the advice given to us by our friends and teachers, and above all the grace of God working through us. Our sponsor, Brother Henry Weaver, has treated us most kindly and generously in his home. For this and for his advice to and interest in our class this year we again thank him. We appreciate the patience shown us by our teachers in classes and wish to ex- press our thanks to them. --john Gebman we Scdoof jl 05Al'Yl8l'l SOPHOMORES-FIRST ROW: Edward Collins, Lila Basinger, Lois Burkholder, Faith Shank, H.

There are eight girls and five boys in our class, also eight dormitory students and five day students. The reason for our small freshman class is the new eighth grade that E.M.C. included in its high school for the first time this year. We elected Brother john T. N. Litwiller as our class adviser.

If you happened to be one of the fortunate few who were not classified you were proud to reply that you had no classification at all. Some folks would say, Ohl So you are one of those persons. It may sound as though we were D.P.'s, but we really were not at all. We took part in most of the activities that the classified students did. The only real difference was that we did not belong to any one class. This was of great advantage to us. --Ruth ll'fi.rmer UNCLASSIFIED-FIRST ROW: Doris Souder, Ruth XVismer, Rhea Hartman, Ruth Kindy, Velma Cookg SECOND ROW: Esther Graber.

The Special Term friends who come to us from various states and conferences are as much a part of our student group as the most important graduate student or the youngest eighth grader. From the moment they arrived on the campus each one of this year's one hundred thirty-two Special Bible Term students became busily engaged in a variety of activities. First on the list was enrolling for their major interest, the short term classes. Added to the instructors of these classes this year was Brother Richard Weaver, son of our Business Manager, Brother H. D. Weaver. With us again this year were Brother Milton Brackbill and Brother Irvin Lehman yaecia! The Special Bible Term program is so arranged that courses of three or six years lead to a diploma. In this way students can come each winter for six weeks and in a few years can get a well-rounded course of Bible study without having to spend a full year at one time. This enables many who could not come otherwise to yet enjoy the privileges offered in Bible study. Eight of these students have shown their interest in a Bible education by coming year after year until as instructors and Sister Anna Showalter as matron. Members of the regular school faculty also tookxpart in discussion groups and special lectures. Literary societies also played an important part. Whether Berean, Victorian or Mennovian, each found satisfaction in the worthwhile and interesting programs given weekly. Spiritual blessing gained in our winter revivals and in our special week-end conferences gave new spiritual experiences and a new vision. To many the challenges received here gave new impetus both for taking part in the Christian service activities under the Y.P.C.A. and for service in their home communi- ties. -Amza Frey EPM! gI'6l0!lfLafeJ they have completed the prescribed courses and have been awarded diplomas for their faithful work.

In order to reach this goal we- must continually climb higher and higher. But in order to make this progress we need One who knows the way and has traveled the road before. Jesus Christ is our traveling companion and guide. He lifts us up when we-fall. He chooses the right path when we come to a divide. He holds us in His arms when we are faint and weary of travel. Yes, jesus Christ is the One who held the pre- eminent place during our fall and spring revival series.lEvangelists George R. Brunk and A. J. Metzler were continually teaching us how to make a success- ful climb hand-in-hand with our risen Lord as guide. Revival meetings are high-lights on our school program. All of us are conscious of the boost they bring to our spiritual climb, which is alone possible through the grace of God shown to us in the person of jesus Christ our Saviour. The revival series help to strengthen and condition us for the rugged and trying circumstances which we are continually facing on this climb. We can cross the seemingly insurmountable steeps with the aid of the strong arm of Christ. With our hands in His no obstacle is too great. May revivals live on to help us on this climb. -Eugene K.

In accordance with this aim, there are held each year the faculty-sponsored Short Story and Oratorical Contests on the twin emphases of non- conformity and nonresistance. These contests are open to all college and high school students. This year's stories were on the subject of noncon- formity. Rhoda Peachey's story, based on actual ex- periences in the life of Conrad Grebel, took first prize. Nancy Burkholder won second prize for her story, Louella's Cap. Evelyn Landis and Rosanna Yoder were the other two contestants. Five college men participated in this year's ora- torical contest, which was on the pertinent and timely theme of nonresistance. Herbert Minnich took first honors, while john Overholt took second prize. The other three college men taking part were Clarence Rutt, Robert Detweiler, and Paul Gingrich. One of the major values of these contests is the part.they play in crystallizing the convictions not only of those who take part in the contest, but also of those in the contest audience. In the truest sense none of the contestants loses, for all have gained a keener conviction and a clearer understanding of our faith and practice. --Azura Frey TOP, LEFT: A. J.

Fifty-nine e OUR? 00,0 2 If UZ f ' Perhaps you have wondered whether college train- ing truly does train one for life, and whether a study of theology prepares one for Christian service. If a person is isolated on a college campus, is he ready to meet the practical problems of Christian living or of mission work? This very practical problem is part of the reason for the Y.P.C.A. on our campus. Not only does the Y supply Christian fellowship and challenge for spiritual growth on the campus, but its purpose is to help the student to understand the heart-cry of the individual without Christ. To chat with men con- quered by liquor and sin, or chained by irons and Satan or satisfied by pleasures and self causes one to realize his need of experience and training to work effectively for Christ. However, the motive for witnessing goes deeper than what it alone does to the Christian worker's life and experience. For the love of Christ constraineth us to give the good news of eternal life to others. 34. Young people have energy and ideas. They want to do things, many different things. Christian young people want to serve the Lord. For this reason we have the Y. P. C. A. But young people sometimes need guidance. Sometimes their ideas go too far afield and need retrieving. Other times they fail to Clzrid fiom Mocia fion And this inner compulsion sends out into the byways the person training in school as well as the person training in life. Students have often discovered that they lose ap- petite for book knowledge when they are stagnant and not witnessingg whereas that appetite grows when they are giving out what they have taken in, and are facing new problems. A vital, fresh-water river becomes a dead sea if that sea has no outlet. Therefore, students have been testifying for Christ by tract-giving or personal contact, in homes in Staun- ton or on the street in Mt. jackson, to boys and girls at the Children's Home or to the aged at the Con- valescent Home, in the prison of Harrisonburg or the church at Elkton, or Gospel teams to the marshlands of Louisiana or the snow-country of Michigan, to colored or white, to jew or Gentile. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to Himself by jesus Christ, and balk given lo nr lbe miuirlry of 1'evom'iliafi0f1. -Paul Sruarr uid em realize all the possibilities of the work. So we have the Y advisers to give a push here and a pull there and to add stability to the work. May God bless them for their interest in us and their consecration to His work. -Daniel Hertzler Y.P.C.A.

They are the result of hours of prayer, thought, planning, and preparation. Under the di- rection of the Religious Life Commission four stu- dent committees are at work regularly to arrange and promote weekly religious services that will both meet the spiritual need of the students and provide op- portunities for student participation in the public worship services. ' This commission is, to a large extent, responsible for providing mission inspiration and information, devotional experience, and doctrinal instruction. .It may well be considered one of the major factors rn the promotion of religious education among us. The Friday Morning Devotion program reaches the entire student body and seeks to promote enriching devotional experiences for all. The Mission Prayer Meeting held each Sunday morning offers missionary information and provides an opportunity for united mission intercession. The Intermediate Bible Meeting seeks to give doc- trinal instruction to the high school students, and the programs of the Young People's Bible Meeting are designed to establish and strengthen doctrinal con- victions of the college students. There is no way of determining the amount of help that is received from the service of this com- mission each year, but there is much to give evidence that it has been a deflnite blessing to many students and has brought glory to the Father. In so much as God has been glorified, so much has the Hnal ob- jective of the Commission been met. -Evelyn E.

The peace they seek is indeed not to be found outside of God, for the Word of God tells us there is no peace to the wicked. Realizing this great need, the City Evangelism Com- mittee of the Y.P.C.A.. is working through three mis- sions in the city of Harrisonburg. There are two white mission churches-Chicago Avenue and Ridgeway, and one colored-Broad Street. Each one sponsors Cottage meetings in the homes of neighboring fam- ilies, evangelistic meetings and regular Sunday Services. One of the newer developments is the work at Staunton. At the present time regular cottage meet- ings are being held in homes, and souls have found the Lord. There is much demand for an enlarging of the work, and many homes are asking for groups to hold meetings. The work of street meetings has gone forward in great strides. Elkton seems to be the most receptive, and approximately 15 persons have been saved in meetings held there. Meetings are held weekly in Mt. jackson and New Market, with many contacts being made there. In answer to Christ's call, it is imperative that we go and tell the story of salvation, not only to the utter- most part of the earth, but to our own cities also. -Grace 1JC'l'.l'lfIll!

The commission members, perceiving the value of one soul, have endeavored to lead lost and wandering sheep to the Prince of Peace. Work of the commission reached out a number of miles from school. At Elkton the work continues to grow. In addition to helping with the work of the Sunday school and church, mid-week meetings and street meetings on Saturday evening are held. With a beaming face one worker said about a street meeting, There were so many opportunities for personal work . . . a lady was saved. Praise God! The Timberville Committee contacted a number of new homes where the Gospel was taught. They were instrumental in leading Mrs, Lamb to the Lord, and continue to help her and other babes in Christ to grow spiritually. The Cottage Meeting Committee is active in wit- nessing in a number of homes. Each Sunday after- noon invalids, old folks, or those who did not go to church are brought the Gospel message in work and song. The Sunday School Committee supplies personnel when a congregation has such needs. It also reaches out into the McGaheysville area where cottage meet- ings are held weekly. Valiantly through Christ, the Rural Evangelism Committee goes forth with an enlarged vision, seek- ing to draw many more into a richer, fuller fellowship with the Christ of Calvary. -Erfber Becker RURAL EVANGELISM COMMISSION-FRONT TO REAR: Mark Lehman, Commissioner: Marilyn Stutzman, Secretary: Elkton: Henry Gamher, Elsie Witmer, Victor Dorsch: Cottage Meeting: Xllfillis Fath, Arlene .Hess, Ina Snyder: Sunday School: Harold Shearer, Esther Becker, Martha auffmang Timberville: Robert Wxtmer, Naomi Graybill, Salome Snyder.

By witnessing a Christian reaches the unsaved and strengthens the saved. The Institutional Work Com- mission provides many opportunities for Christian witnessing throughout the year. Many Sunday afternoons are enjoyed at the Chil- dren's Home. Those living there are delighted with the interest shown by the visiting groups. The chil- dren sit on their little chairs while a quartet sings, and their sympathetic response to the storyteller, their willingness to recite a verse or learn a new song makes all the effort worthwhile. The workers at the Almshouse are indeed faced with a challenge in bringing the gospel to poor people, many of them illiterate, but who represent those of whom Christ said, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. At the Convalescent Home we can always expect WMM-L Commidaion a hearty welcome. These people, spending their last days in the world here, look forward eagerly to Sun- days when young people who care for their souls will come again to talk and sing to them. At the jail we have a unique opportunity of meet- ing with those who because of sin are separated from the world. Many of these are hardened to the gospel: nevertheless the work is fruitful. Similar to this work is the prison camp where chain gangs are kept. It is very encouraging to see those who have been saved testify to the others in -the camp. To all of us comes the responsibility to pray, not only for ourselves and our fellow-Christians, but for every soul. lf we are to follow Christ's example, we will find ourselves witnessing among the poor, the helpless, the sin-burdened. We will also, like Christ, bring to them the Gospel, peace, and the love of God. -foyce Frey INSTITUTIONAL XVORK COMMISSION-FRONT TO REAR: Paul Gingrich, Commissionerg Joyce Frey, Secretary: Prison: Elmer Grove, Ephraim Gingerich, Lester XVeber: Convalescent Home: Norman Hockman, Katherine Hallman, Grace Mumawg Children's Home: Fern Maust, Gladys Landes, Betty jane Martin: Alms- house: Homer Myers, Hazel Horst, Esther Stover.

Many who have had this opportunity looked forward to the glamour of the trip, and have been surprised to find that the lasting impressions are those of souls born into the kingdom and of far-flung missions strengthened. The Evangelism Committee seeks to send gospel teams with these aims foremost. The service of the Tract Committee has- been felt by nearly all students, for it sponsors duistributzon of The Way and the purchase and packing of tracts. Fresher, more attractive Gospel literature has filled no small place in the expanding evangelism work of the College. Seek ye the Lord. These words have stood boldly beside the Valley Pike to provoke to thought the travelers who may see them. Have you prayed that they will see them and be blessed? Bus placards and small signs are also used as a means of spreading the Good News. Putting the Word where it can be seen is a unique ministry of the Wayside Evangelism Committee. jewish Witness, one of the newest service areas, has for the past several years been stirring up interest in jewish evangelism. At college, study classes glean facts about jewish religion and customs, the Holy Land, and mission work. jewish Prayer Meeting has backed up the workers with prayer support. To the home communities in Pennsylvania and Ohio, gospel teams brought the challenge of preaching Christ to the jew. I The Extension 'Commission performs a seryice sto the student body by keeping up with alumni mis- sionaries, putting up correspondence, qmaps, and posters to keep us aware of the work of the church. If the need burns its way into the students' hearts, the work of this commission and its committees is well repaid. May you have enjoyed these service opportunities this year! ' -Daniel M.

You went only because the long distance lines were busy. That night you decided to wait until the next clay to call home. That was only the beginning. Scattered through- out the year were a hay ride, a trip to Natural Bridge, a Thanksgiving social and a Christmas social, a taffy pull, open house, and several evenings of playing records before a dreamy fire in Oakwood Cabin. When you were in the infirmary for five days you received a potted chrysanthemum from the Good Cheer Committee. Upon receiving this your health was so greatly improved you were able to attend the festively beautiful college formal the next evening.

There are five committees in this commission who engage in service and help to make it possible for others to do so. These committees are the College Membership, High School Membership, Music, Employment, and Property. It is the task of the Membership committees to so- licit and receive college, high school, and Special Bible Term applications for membership in our Y.P. C.A. In cooperation with other members of the As- sociation, they are encouraged to lead every unsaved student to Christ and into the Association. They also recommend to student leaders the organization of prayer groups. The Music Committee encourages and promotes the organization of singing groups, espe- cially quartets, among the studentsg thus they assist other Y.P.C.A. committees by providing music per- sonnel for various areas of Christian service. The Employment Committee stands ready to aid students in Ending employment and helps to furnish satis- factory labor to employers of the community. The maintenance of all the property owned or rented by the Association is the responsibility of the Property Committee. They are to some extent responsible for personnel using the property of the Y.P.C.A. Thus they aid in the work of the Association, and en- deavor to lead all students into active participation. -Stella Yoder SERVICE PROMOTION COMMISSION-FRONT TO REAR: Glen Good, Commissionerg Stella Yoder, Sec- retary' Music.

We all think we are busy, but we would open our eyes if we realized their re- sponsibilities. Often they feel the need for relaxa- tion and spiritual stimulation. For this reason E.M.C. has been sponsoring the annual Ministers' Week. In recent years there was added to this a special short course for ministers in connection with the Special Bible Term. Finally this was changed to a short course of only three weeks during the first half of Special Bible Term. Ministers are busy men. So the ministers came. There was Brother Gin- gerich from Nebraska, Brother Detweiler from Fran- conia, and the brethren from Lancaster. There were others from Pennsylvania, Virginia and Ohio. They moved in with usg they lived, studied and worshiped with us. We believe that both students and minis- ters profited from their three-week stay on the cam- pus. May God abundantly bless their ministry. -Daniel H erlzl er MINISTERS: Raymond Richer.

You can see the men and the women who are en- trusted with the intellectual and spiritual training of the young people of our church, of your children and friends. You can meet the products of this train- ing as they have completed their courses. You can observe the faculty in their homes and the students in various informal activities. You can get a glimpse of the societies and organizations among the students which give opportunity for practical exercise of class- room learning. You can also read accounts of their work. As you read, read thoughtfully, realizing the immense poten- tial which this volume represents. Read gratefully, remembering the contribution which it has made, either directly or indirectly, to your own life. Read prayerfully, knowing the tremendous challenge of the age which faces this strong and growing child of the church. As we enter the declining half of the great twen- tieth century, our desire is that the husky, active, growing institution which the SHENANDOAH rep- resents may uphold the faith of her founders as emblazoned upon her seal, Thy Word ls Truth.

They are opposed in that the editors sometimes get in each other's way since they share the same office. They are opposed because the finished products are radically different in form and price tag. Each one has its own special publication dates, whether many or few. Yet they are not so very different. Each faces many of the same problems. There is the problem of dead- lines, weekly for the Weather Vane, monthly for the journal, and yearly for the Shenandoah. There are the problems of misspelled words, typographical er- rors, and pure boners. There is the overwhelming problem of attempting to please the gentle reader. They are mutually attracted also by the mutual satis- faction of publishing something which people reach for and read. When people show even a mild in- terest in their respective brain children, all of these editors begin to feel rewarded for the hours spent with a weary pencil. -Daniel Herlzler BOTTOM: Student Publications Editors: Sally NVQ-ber, Margaret jantzi, Daniel Hertzler, Anna Frey, Doris Good.

Music is a universal language. Three times a week the auditorium is filled with this language as approximately one hundred voices are blended to- gether in harmony and in heart adoration of Christ. The duties of the day vanish as we follow the direct- ing of our capable conductor, Bro. Mark Stauffer. To begin the day with music puts a new spice into the day. A hearty Good Morning, a pleasant smile and a deep appreciation for the best in music spurs us on as we diligently practice for each program. During the Christmas season our hearts were thrilled as we gained a new glimpse of our Saviour in singing various choruses from Handel's Merriab. Not only did we think of Ch'rist's birth, but we gained a new appreciation of His suffering, death, and glor- ious ressurrection. We realized anew that like as Christ arose even so in Christ shall all be made alive. We also became acquainted with the early music of the Mennonite Church as we sang several songs from the Harmofzia Serra. It was interesting to con- trast those hymns with the hymns we use today in our worship service. Of course, the highest of every spring season is the rendition of Gaul's Holy City.

Ze udldef OFU6 Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of His. One of the most versatile music groups of the col- lege is Vesper Chorus. The year started off with a Christmas program. Two of the most outstanding songs we sang were Hark, What Means Those Holy Voices and a newly composed spiritual, New Born. We ninety members unite hearts and voices which overflow in chords of harmonious praise to God. The desire of each member is to glorify and honor our Lord. Monday and Friday mornings as our director, Earl Maust, enters the door we are always greeted with a cheery Good Morning and a pleasant smile. We spend many willing hours in the rehearsal of our pro- grams. The aim of each member is to witness for our Lord through song, to deepen our love for Him, and sing from the depth of our hearts. We learned to enjoy and appreciate good music, and we looked forward to our rendition of the can- tata, David the Shepherd Boy, which each year is given the Friday evening before Commencement. Present chorus members as well as the ones who have participated in past years are invited to unite their voices in praise. The life of the shepherd boy, David, is presented in song. Yes, the Vesper Chorus has added a very bright spot to the list of the year's musical achievements. -Mary Beyeler VESPER CHORUS-FIRST ROW: Mary Riehl, Catherine Roth, Lila Basinger, Mary Ellen XVa ler, Esther Stover, Eunice Kauffman, Joan Esch, Rosalie XVyse, Shirley Schrock, Lucille Hoover, Pauline Zlgehr, Violet Yousey, Ruth Wismer, Ruth Smucker, Earl Maust, Director: SECONDROXV: Faith Shank, Lois Martin, joan Yousey, Martha Risser, Doris Souder, Mclba Kiser, Loretta Burkery, Edith Amstutz, Edith Miller, Ruby Graber, Shirley jantzi, Mary Ellen Stutzman, Sara Stahl, Mildred Heatwole, Louise Ilrennemang THIRD ROW: ,Ioan Weldy, Doris Detweiler, Esther Graber, Carol johnson, Mary Lapp, David Miller, Richard Martin, Merlin Har- man, Lowell Tressler, James Martin, Marie Kuhns, Miriam Saun ers, Martha King, Twila Yoder, Rosalie Har- man: FOURTH ROVU: Margaret Wfenger, Vada Yoder, Betty Ebersole, Grace Shenk, Mary I-Ielmick, Robert Mast, Glenn Stoltzfus, james O.

Seventy tive 340 l'lZ5 CAOFUJ With a prayer for blessing and a song in our hearts, we sought to make each chorus period accomplish something. Two mornings a week we met in the chapel to sing. Brother Maust with his excellent mu- sical ability taught us and directed us untiringly. We learned to sing and appreciate beautiful mu- sical selections. Bach's Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light was a special Christmas favorite, as well as the Christmas spiritual, Go Tell It on the Mountain. We learned to -like Moore's plea for blessing in Invocation, and we assuredly sang from our hearts, My Shepherd Will Supply My Need. Throughout the year we gave programs at various churches in the community, and also at the College. The most remembered high-spot of the year was the tour we enjoyed through Pennsylvania, New York, and Ontario. The fellowship we had among our- selves and with other Mennonite people was a rich experience. Thinking back over the year, we feel that that early period every Tuesday and Thursday plus all those extra practice periods did not cost us too much for the satisfaction we received. I believe that all seven- teen of us, from the tallest to the shortest, found this year's Men's Chorus a blessing to our souls. -jay Laudir MEN'S CHORUS-FIRST ROXV: Elmer Miller, Robert Shetler, Elmer Grove, Dean Shetler, Earl M.

Because we believe that the text of a song is equally as important as the harmony, emphasis is placed on careful pronunciation of each word. Frequently we hear, Open your mouths wide or Sing that word more, distinctly. We want to get this message across to our audience. These practices are scheduled to prepare us for coming programs, but more than that, we receive a definite blessing each time we sing. Then, too, we tend to go throughout the entire day with a song of praise in our hearts. We have been convinced by our director that la- dies' voices are in no way inferior to men's voices. Therefore, with confidence we can use the talent which God has given us to bring honor and glory to His name. -Gladyr Lander LADIES' CHORUS-AFIRST ROW: Carol Johnson, Ruth Hackman, Hazel Horst, Lois Mumaw, Eunice Kauff- man, lzsther Peachtgy,.TwrIa Yoder, Dorisvgantzi, Jean Riehl, Marijke Schutteg SECOND ROW: Lois Martin, Alma' Buckwalter, hxrley jantzi, Rosalie yse, Kathy Wyse, Joyce Frey, Ruth Wlismer.

The truth of Brother Stauffer's early remark that one never re- turns from a chorus tour the same as one left was realized even before the tour as we practiced, prayed, and laughed together. Seeing the blind chil- dren at their school in Staunton when we gave a program for them did more for us than our singing could have done for them. To blend our voices into a one voice effect in a unison section, or to sing in perfect harmony in a four part section reminded us of the necessity and possibility of harmonizing our lives as Christians through the unity that is in Christ. Our one desire was to fulfill our purpose of crea- tion, that of glorifying our .Creator and Redeemer through singing hymns of praise and testifying to His goodness. The desire to sing every word mean- ingfully from a true heart drew us into a close com- munion with Him of whom we sang. Our deep ap- preciation goes out to all who made this opportunity possible. -Alma Bllckufalfer TOURING CHORUS-FIRST ROXV: Rhoda Peachey. Helen Mumaw, Betty Shue, Fern Maust.

This Fellowship was born out of a feeling of lack in our missionary training of knowledge of intimate problems, temptations, and difhculties in our mission work, and the most suc- cessful ways of meeting them. Through the use of posters and banners the con- stant challenge keeps the missionary emphasis alive, The ''penny-a-prayer-a-day-for-missions'' will be a powerful contribution both materially and spiritually to our present mission program. The Literature Com- mittee keeps us posted concerning up-to-date anticles which prospective missionaries should read. At the monthly meetings some of the specific qualifications for prospective workers are discussed. Fresh messages from the field are brought by returning missionaries. It is the prayer of the Missionary Fellowship that in this crisis we as youth might rise to answer the cry of the spiritually destitute with the Bread and Water of Life. May God make us dynamic soul- winners! fresh and growing. A large world map acquaints us with needy areas and gives us a world-field vision. --Roy H.

Although it is com- paratively small in size, its reach in activity is ex- tensive. The Theosebian Fellowship fills an important place in the life of the student, a place that college upper classmen will not want to miss. It is here that we dis- cuss religious, ethical and doctrinal questions that are not answered by the other places of college life. Those who took time out from their studies this year on the hrst Thursday of each month were chal- ian jefzzufd ip lenged by the timely topics discussed. Typical pro- grams treated such subjects asl The Divorce Prob- lem in Missions, The Relation of the Mennonite Church to Contemporary Protestant Churches, and The Christian and Civic Relations. These are just a sample of the current issues we had the privilege to think through under able leadership, before getting off to the field of service where such problems must be faced. Upper classmen, take advantage of this unique opportunity and join us next year. --jefre Byler THEOSEBIANS-FIRST ROW: C.

I believe it was for this reason that the Deovenarian Fellowship was begun, and that it has continued to be an anticipated part of the month's activities at Eastern Mennonite College. The Challenge of the day in which we live calls for young people whose minds are free from uncer- tainties. It calls for strength of conviction and beauty of character. The Deovenarian Fellowship is, I be- lieve, helping us to face the challenge of today by providing talks concerning the Christian and his part in the community, by discussing with us doctrinal issues such as that of closed communion, and by pre- senting other subjects of interest. The monthly meeting is especially planned for Col- lege Freshmen and Sophomores. It is the thought of Christian fellowship and relaxation that makes it easy for us to forget lessons and enjoy an evening at the Deovenarian Fellowship. -Doris Good DEOVENARIAN-FIRST ROXV: Rosa Yoder, Catherine Roth, Esther Hockman, jacob Frederick, George R.

We listened closely as our sponsor, Miss Wenger, read the contributions. Then we talked. Wasn't that a fresh way of expressing that idea ? Wasn't this line a bit wordy ? Soon we had heard them all and it was time to guess who wrote them. Did jo write this? No? Then it must have been Nancy. Of course! And the next one clearly bespoke Dan.

When one is made to realize, however, that the facts of history were one- time realities and that the fathers of our church were ordinary men facing problems as realistic as those we face today, then history liver. The Mennonite Historical Fellowship has endeav- ored to re-live the past that we might avoid the pit- falls of this present day. We gave particular atten- tion to Mennonite history in the Shenandoah Valley, this year. After a few interest-stirring lectures, we toured several communities rich in Mennonite lore. The sites of the Rhodes' Massacre, the White House Fort, and the Massanutten Monument to early Men- nonite settlers aroused our historical imaginations. Once the society met in the Historical Library view- ing and handling large old parchment-bound Ger- man Bibles, hymnbooks, and other volumes. Visiting churchmen with a vital interest in our church's future have brought before the society challenges from the past for the present. Our spiritual and theological origin and development were discussed in other monthly meetings. Witnessing the past has enriched our appreciation for the present and challenged us concerning the future of the church. -E-zferell Melzler' MENNONITE HISTORICAL FELLOWSHIP-FIRST ROXV: Paul Martin, Sponsor, Arlene Hess, Everett Metzlcr, Laban Peachey, Rhoda Peachey, Wfeldon Martin, SECOND ROXV: john Horst, Wfilbur Lentz, Carl Keener, john Overholt, Amos Yoder, john Shank. a ocieclavf giilaano a The Spanish Society is an organization functioning and serving in the interests of students and friends of the Spanish language. It is designed chiefly to give information concerning Spanish American ways of life, at the same time to afford a practical means of the use of the Spanish language. Brother john Litwiller, Spanish instructor, is sponsor of the group. At a regular monthly meeting one would find the program opening with devotions conducted partly in Spanish and partly in English. An interesting feature of many meetings is a quartet singing Span- ish songs, or even a solo by el proferor de maxim, Earl Maust. Happily, the efficient program committee of La Sociedad has steered clear of triteness in its features. In December we lunched on hot rbile mn raffle and peppery e11.mffm'a prepared by Ann Maniscalco. A more informal meeting found us playing Spanish games. In estimating the worth of an organization such as this, one finds that it is not just another function at which attendance is a secondary matter. If the glimpses we are given by these meetings into the way of life of our southern neighbors served no greater purpose than to broaden our knowledge of and appreciation for these people, the society would have fulfilled its purpose. But the value does not end here. This society should create in the hearts and minds of each of its members a missionary in- terest in Latin America. By formal lecture or in- formal games we learn better the ways and thoughts of a people who need the Gospel of Christ. -famer Herr LA SOCIEDAD ESPANOLA-FIRST ROW: Jay Landis, Marie Kuhns, john Litwiller, Sponsor, Esther Lit- willer, Secretary: Harry Hertzler, President: Ann Maniscalco, Vice-President, james Hess, Business Manager, Beatrice Hess, A uilla Riehl: SECOND ROXV: Rosa Yoder, Stella Yoder, Genevalffomer, Joan Nisslcg Shirley Showalter, Fern qlvfaust, Anita Purugganan, Eunice Kauffman, Miriam Kuhns, Violet Youseyg THIR ROXV: Ruth Jantzi, Esther Becker, I.ouise Crovle, Lucy Vance, Lucille Risser, Dons Prripst, Grace Shenk, Joanne Kratzg FOURTH ROXV: Harold Heatwole, Kathr n W se,Vloan Yousey, Rosanna oder, Emma XVagner, Dorothy Lehman, Arlene Martin, Rosalie Hartman, FIIFTH ROX : David Hostetler, James D.

Once a month we Asteroids, Astralites, Novae, and Super Novae met together for a program in which we became acquainted with the starry heavens. Some- times we had a talk by Brother Brackbill or a num- ber of talks by Astral members. Several evenings were spent on Vesper Heights, where Brother Brackbill and cluster leaders pointed out stars for us. Through the telescopes many spectacular phenomena could be seen, again reminding us of the finite earth. We were especially privileged this year to have the honor to present the December public literary program. In order that we might have a more organized study, we were divided into star clusters, grou s of five. Each one worked hard, for the middle o jan- uary marked the end of the contest, at which time the cluster who learned the most stars was eligible for a treat at Starrywood. Learning the stars is like making new friends- the more we know, the more we want to know. Each star has its own striking qualities which draw us closer to it. -Rmb Sbzze ASTRAL SOCIETY-FIRST ROXV: Vera Stauffer, jesse Byler, Esther Gehman, Charles Pellman, Hazel Miller, Alice Martin, Marjke Schutte, Freda Wagner, Emma Martin, Ethel Yoder, Ada Clemens, Margaret Detsrineg SECOND ROXV: Mar Gotwals, Naomi Moyer, John Shertzer, Nevin Horst, .Gladys Landes, Ruth Shue.

There isn't a cloud in the sky, so come along. Brother Hostetter, our capable adviser tells us that the ducks will soon be flying North. That's why we are going to Silver Lake rather than the woodlands today. The Avian Society holds meetings monthly to ac- quaint students with birds' habits. Hikes are sched- uled several times a month. Here we are at Silver Lake, and it's covered with ducks. Blue, green, brown, red, white, all colors dipping and splashing through the chilly waters while we shiver a bit in our coats. Notice that shoveller duck, Brother Hostetter calls with en- thusiasm. 1 Where ? we quickly reply, adjusting our binocu- ars. He's over by the boat house. Now he's passing the mallards. He has caught up to the coots-he's passing right by the buffie head. He's gaining on the ruddy ducks. He's almost up to the pin tails. Now he's passing a ring neck. Not even a horse race could have been more ex- citing as Brother Hostetter described this glow by' glow description of the ducks at Silver Lake. - It's all a part of being an Avian, but more than the fun and excitement is the pleasure of appreciating what great concern God has shown in making our world 'pleasant and beautiful. -Ama Fager AVIANS-FIRST ROW: Gladys Landas, Floyd Zchr, Verna Kauffman, D.

The programs vary interestingly. At one of our meetings during the year we are privileged to hear an encouraging address from our sponsor, Brother Daniel Suter, who is intensely in- terested in the field of medicine as a means of giving a Christian witness to our world. This same emphasis is supplemented by an occasional visit of a Christian doctor or medical missionary. These visits provide for us an acquaintance with up-to-date requirements for medical training, and a greater appreciation of the principles and practices of the Great Physician. Other programs are given by members of the so- ciety. Topics include recent developments in the field of medicine and the related sciences. An annual feature, which is always looked for- ward to with eager anticipation, is a visit to the Army Medical Museum in Washington, D. C. We are grateful for these privileges of stimulating and strengthening the driving motive which must always be present in our current studies and in the more difficult work in the future. -Donald Martin PRE-MED.

Eighty-three we ZKGMQGI1 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Many times I have wondered if Tennyson ever dreamed that some day a distinguished literary so- ciety would choose a quotation of his for its motto. This striving and seeking society finds much en- joyment in the monthly meetings. Those loyal ones who make up the society put bQoks aside, call down pencils from perches on their ears, close all notes, and carefully tuck them into their lockers. This is a real time of relaxation and enjoyment. Because of the various talents represented the programs are al- ways different. Sometimes a program of favorite music selections is enjoyed. There are other times when members give readings. Quartets, trios, and solos are vital parts of esliferarg ociefy the society. Literary would not be complete without those original folks like the Zelatheans who are capa- ble of writing poems and stories. There are other phases, too, which cannot be neg- lected. The Zelatheans furnish strong competition for the other literary societies in basket ball, base ball, soft ball, and foot ball games. One of the highlights of the year is the time when the traditional hatchet is burned and Zelatheans join hands with the Smith- sonians to give a public program. The spring marks another highlight when both societies join for a good time at an outing. The Zelathean society extends an invitation to others to join her ranks, but she wants only those who are Zelathean at heart. -Rhoda Hoflelrer ZELATHEANS-FIRST ROW: john Litwiller, Sponsor, Mary Miller, Kenneth NVeavcr, Catherine Alger, Edgar Clemens, President, Rhoda Hostetter, Secretary, Robert Detweiler, Vice-President, Mary jane Monska, Elmer Miller, Alice Martin, Vernon Glick, SECOND ROXV: Rhoda Peachey, Mlfilffl Derstine, Virginia Richl, Kath- erine Hallman, Ruth Birkyi, Anna Stover, Esther Hilty, Helen Frey, Elma iehl, Catherine Roth, Doris jantzi, Rosa Yoder, THIRD RO : Lena Beachey, Esther Becker, Arlene Hess, Edna Macy, Naomi Graybill, Betty Leatherman, Marilyn Stutzman, Betty King, Verna Graham, Sarah Yoder, Pearl iood, Florence Cressman, Hazel Miller, FOURTH RQXV: Joyce Frey, Pearl Schrack, Irene Benner, Verna Kauffman, Ruth Hackman, Glad s Baer, Ada Nancy King, Anna Mary Augsburgzer, Dorothy I-lege, llla Mae Homsher, Marike Schutte, Martlia Gingrich, Lucille Mayer, Emma Wlagner, Fl TH ROXV: Martha Mann, Avinell Ketterman, Fannie Myers, Ruth Thomas, Myrtle Brenneman, Rhoda Graybill, Dorothy Lehman, Nancy Burkholder, Ruth Martin, Miriam Hollinger, Marie Detweiler, Ruth Mohler, Alice Longenecker, Elsie Cressman, Greta Albrecht, Ruth Wenger, SIXT ROXV: Jonas Christner, Kenton Brubaker, David Swartzentruber, john Denlinger, john Drescher, Paul Swarr, Roy Kreider, Addona Nissleyi Laban Peachey, Leroy Nissley, Robert XVitmer, Amos Yoder, john Horst, John Shenk, Herbert Weaver, SE ENTH ROW: jesse ler, john Hostetter, Daniel Hertzler, David Kauffman, Carl Rudy, james Gingerich, Aaron Hullinger,.

There are many good -things that a literary provides for a student. One of these is the fellowship with other students. Often in the grind of studying we tend to forget our classmates and pay heed to them only when we need their help for a difficult problem. Along with this fellowship comes much needed re- laxation. The old saying that goes All work . . . makes jack a dull boy is very true. After a hard week in the classroom and the laboratory nothing refreshes the mind quite as much as an enjoyable literary program. Although a literary is a good place for relaxation and fellowship, it is also a good place to learn. As you well know, all learning is not received from books.

Not only had we finished another week's lessons, but the Armerians were meeting with another entertaining program. No, not all of us just listened, because this was the place a lot of us took part. Practically all of our members were given a chance sometime during the year to exercise their talents. Many buried talents were brought to the surface. Here was the place we learned. Our programs were not only a means of finding talents and developing them, but also of providing en-tertainment. Our programs were varied. Some- times we listened to music in Park Cabin: sometimes we had a program of poets and poetry, or even an impromptu program. In the coming years we can all look back and say, lt was in the Armerian Literary Society that we learned for life. -form Nirrley ARMERIANS-FIRST ROW: Neil Gamber, Vada Yoder, Robert Mast, Carol johnson, Ragph Martin, President: James Rhodes, Vice-President: Marolyn King, Secretary, Harlan Steffen, ,Ioan Nissley, arl Maust,' Sponsor, SECOND ROW: Ruby Graber, Violet Youse , Velma Cook, Esther Yoder, Gladys Shaddinger, Caroline Zook, Grace Shenk, Ruth Smucker, janet Shank, lilazel Horst, Geneva Comer, Joanne Kratzg 'IHIRD ROW: Ella Coffman, Ruth Kindy, Ruth Wismer, Doris Souder, Elizabeth Souder, Miriam Saunder, Margaret Wenger, Martha Risser, Lois Mumaw, Miriam Kuhns, Edith Miller, David Burkholder: FOURTH ROW: Joan We dy, Esther Graber, Marie Kuhns, Lois Steiner, Betty land Martin, Lois Miller, Naomi Stoltzfus, Fern Maust, Gladys Lehman, Melba Kiser, joan Yousey, Lowell Tress erg FIFTH ROW: james Martin, Glen Steffen, Merlin Harman, Fred Shank, Robert Eshleman, Donald Heishman, Isaac Oberholtzer, james D.

This word brings with it the thought of a large group of loyal Philomatheans that have had many happy and interesting times together through- out the year. Approximately two times a month the Philo- matheans assemble at 7:00 on Friday evenings. At these meetings the group of staunch, wisdom-seeking Philomatheans get a sip of the sparkling spring of knowledge, through the varied and interesting pro- grams that are presented. Impromptu programs teach us to think quickly but sensibly on the spur of the moment. We laugh and cry, think pleasurable and sober -thoughts, form new ideas and opinions, ever striving to live life at its best. Originality and grow- ing talent are expressed in all meetings. The Philomathean motto, Training for Service, has challenged and will continue to challenge us all to nobler service for our Master. Bearing this motto in mind then, Philomatheans, let us grasp hold of Christ's outstre-tched hand and continue training for His service. Thankful that we have received of the best in literary performance, we are glad to be members of the renowned PHILO- MATHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY. -Glemz Stoltzfur PHILOMATHEAN-FIRST ROW: jewel Marie Gross, Samuel Horst,'Sponsorg Sally Weber, Samuel Wleaver, Gladys Landes, Josegh Hertzler, Shirley Showalter, Kermit Derstine, Ada Clemens, Mark Rohrer, Anita Parng- ganang SECOND R W: Martha King, Esther Heatwole, Doris Detweiler, Ruth Showalter, Sara Stahl, Eunice Kauffman Lucille Hoover, Esther Stover, Pauline Zehr, Mary Ellen Waglerg THIRD ROW:ATwila Yoder, Caro- lyn Kauffman, Kathryn Wyse, Rosalie Harman, Dorothy henk, Louise Brenneman, Marilyn Ruth, Dorothea Jacobs, Rosalie Wyse, Shirley Shrock, Shirley Jantzi, Mary Ellen Stutzmang FOURTH ROXV: Mona Basye, Mary Gotwals, Eunice Ruth., Lucille Risser, Rosalie Hartman, Esther Litwiller, joan Stutzman, Mary Lripp, Letha Miller, Doris Propst.

Eighty-seven CGZKCMQA-fafldefrf Each fall when the leaves are crisp and rustling, and each spring when summer is just getting to her feet, a group of merry college lassies who term them- selves the Highlanders set out for the mountains. Bundling into cars or perchance into a truck, the girls are prepared to spend the night and morning in a forest. This year we went to Hone Quarry. After downing the catsup-doused hot dogs, we followed the moun- tain trail. It wound stonily through the moonlight- splattered trees and brought us at last to the peak. Here above the moon-lit valley we held our informal prayer circle. The greatness of God, the peace of LEFT AND RIGHT: Highland Lalssies in the High ands. God-how pressingly real are these in the mountains. Descending to the valley again we huddled around the fire telling stories until by twos and threes we retired to our blankets, where we lay gazing at the stars through the gently swaying pine boughs. The morning brought the sun on our cheeks and the call Breakfast's ready. Immensely grateful to our Chief Lassie, Ruth Kurtz, we packed our last minutes at Hone Quarry with fun, including softball and stream splashings, and immensely grateful to our Heavenly Father for providing such a wonderful setting, we returned, refreshed, to our studies. -Nancy Bmzlebolder e..a,. Ja When books get stale and thirty-four bells a day set up an unpleasant reaction in College fellow's ears, the Pathfinder and his assistant get their heads together over a forestry map. A College Hike is being born! Plans are placed before the hikers for approval, and on Friday afternoon a truck hikes them twenty- five or thirty miles to the mountains. Mountain air and terrain give one a vigorous ap- petite, and the hotdogs, potato soup, celery, and other food sent along from the school kitchen is eaten with great relish. Prayer circle around the campfire always serves to draw us closer to each other and to God. Things of the world seem easier to leave behind as we worship. After prayer circle the night is spent under the stars. fNo specified amount of sleep is guaranteed lj. The main hike of the trip takes place on Saturday morning, and after a noon nieal we return to school. For a week Hikers greet each other. Were you stiff this morning ? However, now the books are fresher, and the bells have lost their harshness. -Rowland Shank CENTER: College Hikers: LEFT: It's Il Toss-up, RIGHT: At Ease. .740 Wafure .sjocielg The Nature Society was organized again this year, after a few years of rest. The society is under the direction of Brother D. R. Hostetter. All high school juniors are eligible for membership. Monthly meet- ings are held in which we study various points of interest in illustrated lectures. This year's lectures were on caverns, national parks, birds, wild life, trees, wild flowers, and American Indians. Besides our monthly meetings we take time out to visit places of interest which are close by. Some of the places which we visited this year are Mole Hill, Rawley Springs, Brock's Gap, Sparkling Springs, Tide Springs, and the beautiful Skyline Drive. We have no opportunity to visit any real volcanoes, but we did visit Mole Hill, which is be- lieved to be an old volcanic neck. We wish at this time to thank Brother Hostetter for sponsoring a Nature Society again this year. -Mary Lapp BOTTOM-NATURE SOCIETY-FIRST ROXV: joan XVeldy, Doris Detweiler, Twila Yoder, Secretary: Letha Miller.

If you have not, you have missed one of the finest types of athletic com- petition. You do not know the satisfaction that comes from serving a ball with precision and accuracy. You do not know the thrill of returning a hard-hit ball with ease and good placement, or of driving a fast ball past your opponent to make a score. You do not know . . . but then you may not be a student either. Students often build up excess energy that must be worked off. In tennis one finds excellent opportunity for re- leasing energy and keeping physically fit. The game of tennis requires coordination and alertness. It requires stamina, and yet it is relaxing. To do your best in -tennis you dare not be tense. Several tournaments are held among the E.M.C. family each year. There are such contests as the annual spring and fall singles tournaments, and the doubles tournaments, which give students opportu- nity to work together. Whether in tournament or just in friendly bout, students find tennis to be a most satisfying game. -David Hortetler OFFICERS OF THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION-CENTER: tMen's3 Ralph Martin, Assistant Manager, Harold D.

It may be too windy to play tennis and too wet for soccer. We want to talk to the boys or to the girls, but they are too busy and we hate to bore them. We might try team, losing and winning with the team, learning to take and give, and individually, to sharpen the senses and develop an agile mind. Needless to say, socially through the activities it sponsors we see a colorful side of our classmates' personalities.

At least, that is what some did.

Both leagues had evenly matched ball teams on the field. H-igh but close scoring was typical of -the A team. In this league eleven contests were waged and of these four were decided by one-run margins. An example of our high scoring was the 16 to 15 tri- umph of the first-ranking Eagles over the fourth-place Ravens. The Owls and Hawks placed second and third, respectively. The champion Eagles had gotten a good start with the 15 to 5 defeat they gave to the Ravens. Such a pace could not be continued in this tournament, and no team finished the tournament with a perfect record. In the B league the story was a bit different. The Orioles, playing high class ball, came through with a perfect record. The Bluebirds, Robins, and Wrens followed. Several interesting statistics gathered from the tournament were these: Both leagues: 473 runs scored in 19 games. A league: 254 runs scored in 11 games. B league: 239 runs scored in 8 games. -101112 A. Lapp TOP AND CENTER LEFT: Men's Softball Champions: Charles Pcllman, battingg Mark Lehman.

'NKH1 ., , OCCEI' al'lJ Cab Have you ever watched a soccer game? Few games give the observer such a sense of watching a great struggling sea of humanity. To the uninterested the game may seem childish. When eighteen or twenty- two boys and men pursue a ball to the extremities of a fair-sized field, there must be found some explana- tion. Either they are badly in need of exercise, or else they are lured by some ruling fascination which grips them and forbids their remaining passive when the crisp days of autumn and the physical education teacher jointly beckon to the soccer tournament. The 1950 tournament was small, but the title was hotly contested and no teams showed a very great superiority. Soccer teams at E.M.C. usually have vicious names. Accordingly there were the Wildcats, with Kenneth Weaver as captain, the Bobcats, with Homer Myers, and the Bearcats, w-ith Harold Beyeler. The Wildcats started vigorously with a seven to nothing victory over the Bobcats. The worst is yet to come, thought the Wildcats as they contemplated the coming encounter with the Bearcats. Their fears were well grounded for after much struggling and some discussion the score stood at two-two. A continued game by game description might en- tangle the reader in a confusion of cats so a brief summary must take its place. The NVildcats had trouble and came out last. The Bobcats collected a few successes, but the Bearcats fought their way to the top although not so high a top that they could forget what a great struggle they had to get there. Have you never played soccer? Try it sometime. --Daniel H erfzler TOP: Soccer Champions: FIRST ROW: james D.

' joofda! The last robin had scarcely finished packing for his trip south when joe Pigskin bounced his erratic way across the north field of the campus. joe was in for a rough season. Due to lack of raw material the tourna- ment this year was divided into three teams. Captains were Donald Heishman, Carl Metzler and George Townsend. The absence of player resources, however, did not dampen the spirits of Uncle joe. Under his experi- enced supervision the football tournament this year looked more like a tournament than ever before. For obvious reasons games were played on the North Field instead of the front campus. Boundaries and yard lines were marked off in line before every battle. joe finally got the tournament under way with each team playing the other three times. The games were well played with good football talent and ef- ficient rehearsing displayed. Carl Metzler's Huskies appeared with top honors after the smoke had cleared away. There was one thing that brought tears of happi- ness to old joe's eyes. In spite of being badly bruised and battered after each game, Joe knew that this year the tournament was one of the cleanest ever held on the campus. Congratulations to all partici- pants. -Robert Delweiler Ninety-live en 3 gaaLefAa! ' . If you are acquainted with the gymnasium here at E.M.C'., you know that we give it a compliment mere- ly by calling it such. The basketball floor just isn't, in mild language, the most modern in the South. But we have learned that the imperfection of our gym does not in any way take away the thrill of a clean swish, or lessen the hushed tenseness while a foul shot wanders hesitantly around the rim when the pressure is definitely on, or take the zest out of winning, or the sting out of losing. No, it's not primarily the gym that creates a love for basketball. It is the thrills of the game and the spirit of competition. The keenest competition is between the literary societies. This year, in the college, the Smiths played the Zels four times and the Smiths won all four of the games, including the annual Lit- erary Contest game. In the high school, the Phillies and the Armerians met six times, with the Armerians winning four of the six games, including the contest game. It's a good thing that the basketball nets know how to relax between shots. Otherwise they'd be nervous wrecks by November, because at E.M.C. they're being shot at from October to March. -Bill and Bob Defweiler TOP: Smithlsonians Win Over Zelatheansg CENTER, LEFT: Philomatheans vs. Armeriansg RIGHT: Women's Champions in Actiong BOTTOM: Women's Champions: FIRST ROW: Mary, Ellen Stutzman, xgoan Nissley, Sara Stahl, Crigtaing Epnice Kauffman, Ellen Slabaughg SECOND ROW: Lois Steiner, Janet Shank, sther Graber, Mona Bayse, azel Miller. 9 Omen 5 One of the favorite sports among the girls at E.M.C. is basketball. It is often chosen for a physical education class instead of any of the other sports. We play basketball all during the year, but this sport is at its height in the middle of the school term. At this time we are obliged to seek some sort of indoor rec- reation, and basketball is usually at the top of the list. W'e girls prefer a game of more action on cold days. During the basketball season the girls have a tour- nament. Those who want to play in the tournament are divided into teams which play each of the other teams. The two teams with the best records compete Ninety-six gaalefdaf for the championship. The winners are the basketball champions for the year. Of course there are other games of basketball be- sides the tournaments. Literaries compete with lit- eraries and classes with classes. One time during this year some alumni girls came back to their alma mater for a good game with the high school girls. They proved that they had not forgotten E.M.C.'s basket- ball games and the way to win them. - When school seems dull and studies are hard, there is refreshment in a good basketball game. Al- most any E.M.C. girl is eager for a good game of basketball. -Sara Slab! e ,,-,Q I 'fi- M 4425 W- ,.nc. ull 09' gc li' .4 mm Q xiii f 'N A , ' x u ,gi H aa- ,QQ f L nv v . .,, ' Q 11 I.
