To Lydia McNichols, wife, mother, and instructor whose Christian example and radiant personality enriches the spirit of campus living. Yes, and to Melvin McNichols, a first-grader, who, although just beginning his formal education, has experienced four years of college life on George Fox college campus. His animation and extensive vocabulary have added enjoy- ment to students and faculty alike. McNichols — to you as a family— our campus family, the L ' Ami staff dedicates their 1954 edition. Administrative Committee to R: Donald McNichoIs, Chairman; Paul Mills, Harlow Ankeny We have come to the close of the second year in which we, the Adminis- trative Committee, have worked together in forming school policy. These two years attest to the possibility of unity within planning and executing a program. These two years have proven to be one of life ' s rich experiences. God ' s grace has been revealed through the supply of those things necessary for the successful operation of the college. At all times we have sensed the full support of the trustees; we have been free to work closely with them, with the faculty and the students. We express our thanks to God and our deep appreciation to these groups for their loyalty, cooperation, and Christian spirit of devotion. The Administrative Committee College Board Meeting quarterly to set general policies and transact college business is the Board of Directors of George Fox College. President of the Board is Ivan L. Adams, now in his fourth consecutive year of leadership. The board works closely with the three-man administrative committee in promoting work toward accreditation of the college. Gervas A.

WLeL to -Af, rica Throu gh word from the mission front and prayer, Alice Wheeler, ma- tron at Edwards Hall, felt a definite calling to work in the Leper Colony at Nyan Kanda, Ruyigi Ruanda-Ur- anda, to fill in as relief nurse from April to August. Robert Adams, FMF president, pre- sented this concern and the need for funds to the George Fox College stu- dents Wednesday, February 18, 1953. The needed $2,000 was raised and sent in from various sources under the sponsorship of the GFC students. The final payment arrived April 1 and Mrs. Wheeler left the United States April 5. Her date of arrival was April 11. Mrs. Wheeler returned from a very successful mission to Africa in August. Each situation and new problem in the leper colony had been faced and won.

The inexperience is evident from a look at the 21 man roster which included only seven lettermen and thirteen freshmen, many of whom had played no football previously. The most damaging of the injuries was a severely twisted knee re- ceived by stellar guard Ted Eichenberger. Center Earl Tycksen, quarterback Steve Ross, tackle George Andrews, and end Fred Newkirk all sustained injuries which limited their action. When Reed college discontinued football and cancelled both GFC games, and when the Portland State junior varsity was unable to play a scheduled pair of contest, Coach Geo rge Bales was forced to arrange games with superior opposition. Three were played against a strong Linfield JV squad. The football season saw 200 pound junior fullback Dick Zeller establish himself as one of the all-time greats at George Fox college. Zeller punted 35 times for a phenomenal 41 yard average per kick. He completed 26 passes in 54 throws for 415 yards and six touchdowns. In addition, the husky Salemite, who was co-captain with Clint Brown, led the team in rushing with 198 yards in 62 for a 3.2 average. The experience gained in the 1953 season should serve the Quakers well in coming years. Only one senior, Verne Martin, and three juniors, Ted Eichenberger, Clint Brown, and Dick Zeller, were in the squad. Improvement was apparent throughout the season. Especially improved was the center of the line, held down by tackles Ralph Cammack and George Andrews, and guards John Adams and Ted Eichenberger.

But a second quarter TD put Pacific JV ahead at the halftime 6-2. The Forest Grove team scored twice in the second half to win 18-2. GEORGE FOX— 25 LINFIELD JV — 26 Dick Zeller threw two touchdown passes to Don Lamm as the Quakers were edged by Linfield JV 26-25 October 16. Zeller gained 84 yards on six aerial completions in ten throws, and set up one TD with a 76 yard quick kick. Bob Chess scored once on a line back and again on a 37 yard pass play from Steve Ross.

A fumble on the initial play gave Linfield its first TD. A 25 yard pass from Dick Zeller to Don Lamm brought the GFC score. GEORGE FOX— 12 OCE JV— 6 Dick Zeller and Don Lamm teamed for two touch- downs via the air lanes as the Quakers tripped OCE junior varsity 12-6 on the local gridiron October 31. The Zeller to Lamm throws were for 49 and 20 yards. The game ended with GFC on the enemy three yard line threatening to score again. GEORGE FOX— 13 LINFIELD JV— 25 On Homecoming Day, November 7, the Balesmen again fell to Linfield JV, this time 25-13. George Fox took the lead late in the first quarter as a 16 yard pass from Dick Zeller to Don Lamm scored a touch- down, and Lamm threw to Bob Chess for the con- version. But a determined Linfield offensive gave the McMinnville squad the win. The other Quaker score came late in the game when Dick Zeller crashed to paydirt for his first touchdown in college football. 64 Die 1 Zeller hits the line. Part of Homecoming crowd.

Cheerleaders at work. 65 GEORGE BALES After six years at the George Fox College athletic helm, George Bales resigned. Bales came to GFC in 1948 as athletic director and coach of football and basketball. His six years here have seen many accomplishments. Among these are consistently successful athletic squads; a well-managed athletic pl ant; a minor in the physical education curriculum; and one of the best conditioning rooms of any college or university athletic department in the Northwest. The Metropolitan Collegiate Basketball Conference, a six-school league of colleges in the Portland area, was organized by Bales and other cooperating coaches in 1949. Coach Bales had an enviable record in all sports, especially basketball. His cage squads won 71 and lost only 51, including a 31-17 record in Metro- politan Conference play. The Quakers won the MCC championship in 1952, ended third in 1953, and finished in second place every other year. Bales attended Newberg high school and starred in athletics as a state champion wrestler. He graduated from George Fox College with an A.B. degree in 1943 and the next year received a Th.B degree at GFC. After some pastoral work, he took a full graduate course in physical education at Spring- field College in Massachusetts. During his stay at George Fox, Coach Bales won the respect and admira- tion of all whom he influenced. He has been widely heralded as depicting the finest in Christian coaching. 66 Kneeling: Verne Martin, captain; George Bales coach. ... u r| , t Standing: Russ Pickett, Don Lamm, Dick Zeller, Orville Winters, Cub Grimm, Roily Hartley, Clint Brown, Steve Ross. Coach George Bales led the basketball team to a rec- ord of 15 wins against only 6 defeats. In Metropolitan Collegiate Conference play the Quakers deadlocked with Reed for second place with a 7-3 record. Highlighting the season were a pair of wins over defending champion and pre-season favorite Reed. The Balesmen dumped the Griffins 82-77 and 68-56. Guard Verne Martin, team captain for the second con- secutive year, was awarded the Robison trophy, for the senior having contributed most to basketball at George Fox. Darwin Cub Grimm, forward, scored 216 points in 10 conference games, to break the record of 212 he set in 1953. Two wins, 85-73 and 83-71, over the highly touted Greenleaf town team in the Greenleaf Academy gym climaxed the season.
