A candid appraisal of many institutions reveals grave deficiencies, peripheral offerings, and over-lappings with sister colleges. What, then, are the raisons d ' etre which give our alma mater its life and uniqueness? These cannot be trumped-up, but rather valid conclusions. Not the least is our lovely setting. I question if any part of America is more graciously appealing than the Willamette Valley in Spring. As I have travelled this school year trom coast to coast, I have found no campus more beautiful in its natural environment. This is important. For a college is more than courses and buildings and equipment. There must be surroundings conducive to serenity ana contemplation. Otherwise, a college becomes little more than a diploma mill! I cannot pass by our devoted Christian faculty, for the greatest element in any school is its faculty, and so it is with us. Dedicated as they are to the highest ideals of Christian scholarship, and imbued with a desire to teach and help you, where can one find a more consecrated group? Where can one look to see a great measure of committent to our Christ and His church? But the great reason for our existence is found in our Christian faith and love to the Society which has given birth and sustenance to George Fox College for all of its sixty-five years. We stand, without apology, to proclaim the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ as we prepare select youth for service in all the professions and callings. What we are today casts its long shadow to generations yet to come. What George Fox is today spells the success of evanqelical Quakerdom into all the future. May every student who enters our halls close beside Chehelem ' s Mountain be thrilled with the holy faith of our fathers, and may we prove to all our reason for being. This light cannot die. This must go on and on with greater brilliance to every succeeding generation. For in the words of Woodrow Wilson: The Christian College is the lighthouse of civilization. Pne ident milo 4 5 Chanlei A. Bead Senvei An College Pa ton . .a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth, is true of the untiring service of Charles A. Beals, college pastor. His affiliation with George Fox College is bound not only by the ties of the Newberg Friends Church, but in active participation in campus life. During March, Charles Beals conducted a series of chapel addresses on First Generation Quaker Evangelism. He is a familiar and welcome figure at ballgames, recitals, and prayer meetings and an ever-present and willing counselor in his study where students have worn the path to his desk. 6 Bound Jnanzactik Colleqe Buaineza Back Row, L. to R.: John C.

Education is comprised of those influences which help young people fulfill the unique, particular functions in life which is in tnem to fulfill, and to fit them as adequately as possible for those spheres which as citizens of the world they will share with others. Christian education at George Fox goes beyond this. Our aim is to fit young people spiritually, academically, and socially for that unique function every student is to fulfill as a Christian citizen in this life and to prepare each for eternal life beyond the portals of earthly existence. Just as surely as the buds have sprung into life after this severe winter so has come new life spiritually, educationally, and socially to those who have spent these months together on our campus. In a year which has seen considerable changes on campus students have shown a high degree of willing cooperation and a genuine concern for those improvements which will enhance the educational opportunities of the future. For this we say Thank You!

Staft Wonka Hand 7o Pnoduce Successful l eanUook A L Ami dinner at the home of Editor Quentin Nordyke in Salem highlighted the first activity of the yearbook workers. To the L ' Ami staff goes the credit for the first club sponsorea chapel program in which they presented their ideas for the yearbook. Working behind the curtains of sports, music, dramatics, academics — in class- rooms, laboratory, gymnasium, across the campus— the L ' Ami staff have endeavored towards their goal of unfolding the pages of 1956 in this yearbook. Subscription drives, picture schedules, and steady hours in the L l Ami room mark the external evidences of a yearbook while ideas, disappointments and surprises tell of the inward struggle of the L Ami. For the first time a summer annual has been scheduled in order to por- tray a complete school year of events. Perhaps the symbolizing word of a yearbook stall is Work but the reward is satisfaction of a job well done, towards that hope the 1956 L Ami staff have given their time and energy.

Totaling thirty-one appearances, the George Fox a cappella choir presented a program of early poly- phonic music, numbers from the Romantic Era, music of Russian Derivation, anthems, and a group of Negro Spirituals to Oregon, Washington, and Idaho audi- ences. About noon on March 16, choir members loaded packed suitcases onto a chartered bus scheduled to take them through a rigorous concert tour of three states which included not only the formal concerts, but the humor and surprises that make a trip of this nature so unique. Sprinkled throughout the year were the hours of tedious practice, choir breakfast, election of officers, annual choir banquet in Portland and the many ap- pearances in churches and high schools.

When the season began, pros- pects looked good, but the usual limited man-power and an un- usual rash of injuries put the Qua- kers behind the perverbial eight- ball. After the opening contest, the Quakers were never at top strength until the Homecoming tilt. Once again the Quakers em- ployed the explosive split-T offense, but it seemed as though it lost its fire-power when the Foxians ven- tured into enemy territory. The of- fense looked good and showed the excellent coaching of Ralph Beebe the Quaker head mentor, but the sputterina in TD territory kept it from being too effective. The big- gest weakness appeared in the pass protection department. The best weapon was the aireal attack with Bill Hopper and Chuck Newkirk tossing and Don Lamm, John Lyda and Ed Stark pulling them in. The ground attack was spear- headed by Fred Newkirk, Bob Field and Willie Valech. Newkirk scored the longest TD of the season on a 65 yard gallop. The Quaker defense was solid against the opposition ' s running game, but suffered woefully when the foes took to the air lanes. In the Homecoming fray, PSC gained a -2 yards on the ground. Forming the nucleus of the de- fensive forces were Earl Tycksen, Ralph Cammack, Basil Carr and Jim Houston. Dick Logan although hampered by injuries looked ex- ceptional as defensive line-backer.

Kne eling: Bill Hopper, Neil Pierson, Charles Tuning, Arnie Willcuts, Roily Hartley. The 1955- ' 56 basketball season was by all standards, save one, a most successful one. The one blot being the failure to nail down the conference banner. The Quakers put seven new records in the ledger, three of these being scoring in a single game so that five records were written in at the season ' s end. The first record went into the books when the Quakers bashed Reed 96-50, setting a school scoring record. Not satisfied with such an unimposing mark, Coach Beebe ' s boys up- ped the record again while trouncing Northwest Christian College of Eugene 104-51. Being glory-hungry lads, the Quakers, naturally enough, set the mark on its present pinnacle in a 110-59 rout of W.E.S. The season record of 18-6 and the 76-1 offensive average were also records. Bill Hopper, sophomore forward, wrote two new records into the books by pumping 452 points through the hoop during the sea- son, and collecting 42 points in a single game. Roily Hartley, the great senior guard, closed out his career with 1026 points for a new mark in that department. The entire starting crew came up with individual efforts of 20 points at least once during the season. The team work was outstanding to a point of being brilliant. Each man was a vital member. Arnie Willcuts played very fine ball, being a steady scoring threat, a good rebounder and all-around floor man. Chuck Tuning was very effective on the boards, on de- fense, and in the late stages a good scorer. Neil Pierson, Hartley ' s running mate at guard, was a ball-hawk all season and at times a very good point-getter. Willcuts, Pierson and Hopper are all sophs, Tuning a junior and Hartley the lone senior. Ralph Beebe Coach QUAKER RECORD EIGHTEEN WINS - SIX LOSSES GFC 59 36 W.E.S.

Sporting a starting five containing five frosh, the juniors showed a polished attack with great team spirit. Led in the scor ing column by Don Tuning who swished 203 points, the JV ' s showed a very balanced scoring attack. Follow- ing Tuning in the point parade were Paul Morse and Bob Will- cuts with 164 each, Chuck Newkirk with 144 and Ed Stark with 136 counters. Two highlights of the season were the second Reed game, when the Quaker Babes poured through 82 points for a new JV scoring record, and a game with the Newberg Lakers, an AAU club, which the Qua-babes took in a 54-53 thriller. Ed Stark put the Foxians ahead with less than a minute left. The Lakers missed two free throws in the last 30 seconds and the Qua- babes had their ball game. Another high spot was a home-and-home series with Mac- Laren High School which the clubs split. A top junior varsity is a good indication of good teams in the future, and the Quaker prospects couldn ' t look rosier.

Spninq Qives Qinls Softball level - Quaken Yline ffaa Jain Season Inexperience, ineligibility, injuries and a rough, tough schedule produced a season which showed a considerable bulge on the loss side of the ledger. The Quakers started out in fine fettle, whalloping the Lewis and Clark JV l s 8-2, behind the effective hurling of Cub Grimm, but from there on the trail got more than a little rocky. The two remaining wins came at the expense of the Reed Griffins. The Quakers again engaged the powerful OCE Wolves in a pair of double-headers, and made a very good showing, although they failed to whip the boys from Monmouth. In one contest, the Foxians pushed the OCE rs 10 innings in a scheduled seven frame affair before bowing 7-5. The Quakers were a very erratic ball club, sometimes looking very good and sometimes quite the opposite. There was only one senior on the club, so again the cry rings forth, Wait x til next year. Milt Richey Freshman Third- Outfield Neil Pierson Sophomore Outfield Cub Grimm, Milt Richey, and Niel Pierson led the Quaker nine at the plate, all three checkinq in with a .400 average or better. Grimm led the club percentage- wise with a gaudy .440 mark, while Pierson and Richey each recorded a glitter- ing .400. Richey was the Quakers leading power man as he collected nine doubles and a four-master, and drove 24 men across the plate.

These honors, some with stiped, have been granted in recognition of the capabilities of the student, their willing- ness to cooperate with the professors, and the possibility of their profiting from the experience. The income from a sizeable endowment established by an anonymous nationally- known corpora- tion provides the funds for these allo- cations. This program has already proved its worth both to the professors and to the students, and is being imple- mented for the ensuing year.
