AWARD CDF THE GCLDEN SWORD Glenroy Shedd receives the Golden Sword pin from Martyn Eggough. The award of the Golden Sword-the highest honor a student may receive at Evangel College - is based an outstanding ability in scholarship, activities, leadership, and Christian character. This year, any student who had been at Evangel for one year and met the above standards, qualified for this award. This was a change from the previous year when only juniors and seniors were eligible. Another change was the decision to award this honor monthly rather than bi-monthly. Presentation of the Golden Sword was made by Martyn Eggough, chair- man of the Awards Committee. The student was entitled to wear this pin for a month, after which it was relinquished to the next recipient. ln addi- tion to this, the names of those receiving this honor were engraved on the Golden Sword plaque which will be placed in the trophy case. The committee is making plans to give individual pins to the receivers, in the future.
