Grace Abouriding L'Grace Abounding was the week-long theme for the 51st Annual Freed-Hardeman College Lectureship. lt began with Norman Hogan's Amazing Gracen chapel lesson February 2. It continued throughout the week with many featured speakers including Alan Highers, Juan Monroy, Franklin Camp, William Woodson, Billy Nicks, and Guy N. Woods. Mr Woods is the only speaker who has a standing invitation to speak at the annual lectureship. Each year a student is chosen to speak during one of the chapel services. Each year has brought forth students with a great tal- ent and a willingness to preach the word. This year was no exception as Kelcy Hahn spoke on the topic Here Am I, Send Me. He was chosen by the Lectureship commit- tee. Along with many fine lessons, there were daily classes focusing on The Gracious Womanl' by Mignon Dorang g'Theistic Evolu- tion by Ralph Gilmore and many others. Many long hours of work and preparation by Winford Claiborne, director, made this 20 LECTURESHIP year's Lectureship a success. Because of his dedication and hard work, Winford Clai- borne was honored at the Appreciation Din- ner. While being a member of the F-HC faculty for eight years, he is also known in the area as a preacher. Not only does he conduct several meeting throughout the year, he also holds many workshops regard- ing the Christian home. Many nightly activities were held during the week to allow visitors to become better acquainted with the students. A devotional was held in Scott Dorm with Brother C.W. Bradley, former F-HC faculty, as the speak- er. Also, V.E. Howard brought his annual Sing-Song to the college this year. One of the highlights of the week for the student body was the announcement of Mr. and Miss F-HC. This year's recipients were Brad Camp and Jeanna Massey.

Gloom, dispair, and agony on me!!! Mourning over the rumored death of one of the characters, Tri Zeta girls blow their noses in sadness. photo by Micah Brinkley Mystery Unfolds at F-I-IC!!! At 10:30 A.M. on October 9, 1986, Loyd Auditorium became the scene of a gruesome murder. A man was shot, or stabbed, or both. Who would commit such an act? Who really took the stolen plates? This tangled mystery carried us to Africa, France, a nice little rock with millions of sides in Australia, and even to the meat locker of our very own Gano Dining Hall. Yes, chapel skits took on a whole new dimension during the fall semester. To add a little sparkle to the traditional skits, Dr. Hen- ry Hank McDaniel came up with the idea of using a Cliff Hanger as the theme for all of the skits. You may be asking Where in the world did you get this idea, Hank? Where else but the kiddie matinee serials he used to attend on Saturday mornings as a young boy. From this idea, Dr. McDaniel and Mrs. Pam Brown wrote the first episode of The Shanghai Express. This was enacted by a group of faculty members and was followed up by each club individually. Each club had to use their imagination to continue the plot Lady Liberty!!!

It was quite a challenge for each club to add their own style and creative talents to make their segment unique. Dr. McDaniel felt that this opportunity to spark the imagination was one of the serial's good points. One of the serial's bad points was some of the clubs didn't have a good concept of the whole idea and what they were supposed to do. Although it offered an alternative to the traditional chapel skit where each club used any particular theme they wanted, some stu- dents felt that a serial was too restrictive. lt forced the clubs to be creative but it also limited them, said Shelby Merryman, se- nior. As with any new thing, it had its draw- backs. Whether or not we will see chapel skits as serials again remains to be seen. Dr. McDan- iel would like to try it again but this time have a group of faculty and students sit down and plan the whole series together. It is 11:00 A.M. and the murder remains unsolved. We're still left hanging as we end our ride on The Shanghai Express. W
