The Sunset Heralds . . . So we come to another measuring point in the history of George Fox College, that of Diamond Jubilee. As we come to a new corner, we pause to look back and see what has gone before. In 1871, William Hobson felt the call of God to found a settlement of Quakers in Oregon. In 1875 he settled in the tiny town of Newberg, and used the new post office to send for his friends. Soon a need was felt for a college, for the nearest Quaker school was Penn College in Iowa. On September 9, 1891, Pacific College opened with President Thomas Newlin, and six other professors. These were the beginnings. The time when Kanyon Hall (now Minthorne) was built and later The Ending of an Era remodeled. When Hoover Hall (now destroyed) was a principal building. When students worked to build a gym. When Mrs. Woodward and Mrs. Martin toured the country to raise money for the building which now bears their names. Athletics came too. The first football game was played with Willamette University in the fall of 1894. Track started in 1895, and in 1902, Pacific won the conference meet at MacMinville. Basketball came in 1898. The outstanding team of 1917 was conference champion, and defeated Oregon State 34 to 25. So we stop to look back. The sun falls on an era, and out of the ghosts of the past come the shadows of the present.

As Darkness Comes to the Campus In the dusk, the lights of Calder Center begin to shine, and quiet comes to the class room. Studies for the evening- prove too much as Barb Murren falls asleep in the Pennington study- room. 6
