We were starting a life that seemed new and im- portant, though as yet unfamiliar to us. We were thrilled by the very idea of be- ing in college. Still, there was a disturb- ing sense of insecurity that made us try to show how clever and mature we were. Gradually, we began to realize that college meant more than we had expect- ed. We learned of the traditions that are Houghton's-the dream of a few men of faith, the time, the energy, the prayers that had gone into her foundation as a school, High in Standards, Low in Ex- pense, Fundamental in Belief. Hough- ton had meant much to herifounders, and to those administrators and teachers who had carried on the work and had furthered her growth. We saw that college had given the old- er students an easy mastery of situations which appalled us. We saw sportsman- ship that we admired, talent that we coveted, maturity that we despaired to achieve, We hoped that someday we might approximate thet-r capabilities. Time passed swiftly. With each succeed- T9 us college has meant intellectual stimulation ing year we felt more and more that we were a part of Houghton, that Houghton was a part of us. Then came Pearl Harbor and war. Each month numbers of our men were called into their country's service. As we saw them go, as we saw the cost of living soaring, as we heard rumors of other small liberal arts colleges being forced to close, we wondered. We won- dered if Houghton would 'be able to maintain her standards, if the college of which we had become so much a part must cease to function. We felt the spir- it of Houghton in the choir, in the bas- ketball games, in the publications offices, in our bull sessions, in our associations and even in our clandestine pranks. We felt it in chapel, in church, and in our class devotions. Houghton and Houghton atmosphere meant more to us than we made any attempt to say. With the war, the spirit which has al- ways distinguished Houghton became even stronger in order to keep alive, not only the school itself, but also the activi- ties and the ideals of 'the institution. When we returned this fall, we found a I Houghton, which, though changed, still preserved her standards, her principles, 'her faith. We saw her strong spirit ex- emplified in our faculty who, diminished in numbers, carried heavier schedules that we might enjoy college as usual. We understood a little of her spirit when we heard our president say, But for God, the existence of Houghton would be im- possible. We realized, when we heard from our servicemen, how great was our responsibility to deserve the opportuni- ties we had in Houghton. We felt that we should maintain and improve her qualities of scholarship and spirituality. Grown from an insignificant semin- ary, grown to a distinctive college, grow- ing to a fuller, wider influence, ,Hough- ton symbolizes not only scholasticism, but also idealism, not only intelligence, but also maturity, not only knowledge, but also spirituality. So it is to Houghton College, for her past accomplishments, for her present vitality, and for her future potentialities for service, to her teachers, her students, to her Christ, to the intang- ible spirit of Houghton we dedicate this, the l9-44' Boulder. .. . and social maturation.

We see it standing at the right of the platform in our chapel. We see it at our banquets, symbolizing the spirit of the effort that has gone into our bond drives. The American flag is a part of our everyday lives at Houghton. - The war with its accompanying calls to armed service, its demand for wealth, talent, and labor has jogged our inert imaginations into realizing that the country for which that flag stands cannot be ours without watchfulness, without sacrifice. Thus, we have become familiar with war-loan campaigns, Red Cross drives, blood- bank donations, special war courses, and letters to servicemen. In the morning church services we have prayed ,silently and sung reverently Our Father's God to Thee for our men in the armed forces. We have seen the numbers on the service flag in chapel increase to above three hundred. Already some of the blue stars have given place to gold.

He had a certain gaiety about him, a mischievous glint in his 'blue eyes, a merry grin, a friendly 'Hi for everyone. We used to see him wrestling with trays and kettles at the kitchen sink, or thrust- ing the latest Star at us as we passed down the hall from Thursday's chapel. He lent his talents to Houghton's musical organizations, booming away valiantly on the baritone in the college band, raising his voice with the basses of the chapel choir. Some of us remember him as a classmate, for he would have graduated this year. At times his levity seemed irresisti-ble. We recall his propensity for making nonsensical replies in Soph Lit. He wanted to be a teacher. He even wrote about that when he was overseas, manning a tall-gun that he had named Little Joe, --for luck. He was one of us, a cheerful, likeable kid, a sin- cere Cfhristian. Warren Dayton won't be coming back when the war is over. He is one of the American 'boys who nas made the supreme sacrifice. No, he won't be back, but to those who knew him, Little Joe represents a youthful zest, an eager- ness, a joy in living, a spirit that neither war nor death can ever quite extinguish. l3 Dlsmvc Tl ve FOR ITS' BOUZDL7? x., A X v aiu W,-N, 1 .wi 1 ,gr ,v J': :J-f .

The God-directed life that is characteristic of our school is a result, largely, of the work of the Houghton church in its cooperation with the college. ln its pastor we have found a warm and understanding friend, an energetic and compe- tent leader, a worthy example of a spirit-filled ministry. From its pulpit we have heard stirring and challenging messages. At its altar we have sought solace and consolation, the power and the mercy of a loving and redeeming Savior. We have heard the voice of God in the hush of the bendiction at the close of Thanksgiving Vespers. We have felt His presence in the solemnity of Good Friday's communion service. Distinctive for its Boulder, Houghton is a college where we have found a faith -a way of life, an institution where we have discovered a source ot guidance and of service.

But college with only buildings and green lawns would not be college. The Music Building, the Dorm, and the Li- brary without students and teachers would be lacking in purpose, in life, and in importance. To us, college means seeing one class leave and greeting anotherg retaining old friend- ships and making new ones. We love Houghton for the fellowship and the friendship we find there. Yes we know it well - little Christian community - ivy ' covered Old Administration Building - Music Hall, source of discords and of harmony +- snow-covered plateau, beautiful even on cold mornings.

Remembet -the circus party they gave in their frosh year, the '43 Boulder, the Junior-Senior Southern Banquet. ? The class is smaller this year, tor many who would other- wise have received their diplomas are serving Uncle Sam. But in spite of the fact that their classmates are in Alaska, in the South Pacific, and in Europe, the class has held its position of leadership on our campus in a manner that should make II their boys proud.

We admire his energy and his unfail- ing devotion to thetask of interesting a widening range of ,groups and individuals in Houghton College. 'We respect 'his executive ability, we stand in awe of his thor- ough and uncompromising scholarship. n To Houghton students, however, Doc Paine is not only a leader and teacher, he is a 'beloved friend. We remember him for his genuine concern for us as individuals, his friendly greeting as we dash to our eight o'clocks. We are delighted by the wealth of inspiration and knowledge, we derive from his Tuesday morning chapel talks-talks made spicy 'by bits of dry, often pointed humor. We find in Doc the epitome of what is fine in Houghton-competence, intellectual ability, understand- ing and spirituality. 54 Stephen W. Paine, Ph.D DEANS Friendly guides, interested in our problems, our progress, and our success, the Deans have given unstintingly of their time and abilities in order that Houghton students' may develop integrated Christ-centered personalities. ln personal conferences, in campus activities, in church, we have felt their concern for us. We appreciate their patience, their consideration, and their Christian leadership. Philip F. Ashton, Ph D Dean of C ollege George E.

Behind each successful war bond campaign, each advance in student autonomy, each outstanding class pro- ject, there is an integrating organization chosen 'by the students to direct the course of college functions. War years mean additional responsi- bilities for both student body and faculty. College nearly as usual entails many activities which make their payment toward the debt which we owe our boys. Target for Tonight with its ac- companying formal banquet in the fall, the spring war program, war courses, bond drives-in everything we have tried to work hard for our Flag. wa' Planning, organizing,.working, the War Council has been the sponsor of all our campus war activities, Dr. Luckey as its chairman has enthusiastically pushed toward the CounciI's goal, that Houghton become war conscious. Larger and larger bond quotas have been met with a tri- umphant over the top. Houghton provides us with experience in student government in far more ways than the a c t i v e support of a war. Through our campus politics we learn in miniature the advantages and the fallacies of democratic rule. More than that, we practice the cooperation that is essential to success-, and submerge our private riv- alries in the spirit'of our group. So it is that with experience in student govern- ment, Houghton 'builds toward a mature adulthood, ' F. 5 War Councll -1 4- Grandy l R. Luckey F. Gillette P. Woolsey Scoitt M.

As a staff we have assumed our responsibility and withstood anxious months of headaches, calculations and correspondence. But to us, our greatest achievement lies in visualizing a yearbook molded by many personalities into a com- posite of understanding, cooperation, and dependability. The publication of a Boulder has meant concentrated effort, long hours s-pent in a drafty office, and inevitable periods of des- pair counteracted by satisfaction, a sense of achievement as write-ups are completed, as sales are increased. Getting off to a late start, feeling the pressure of war prices, facing an early deadline, the staff has not found the going easy. To Ruthie, Bill and Ray, the Boulder has meant almost full time spent in evolving plans, carefully laying out dummy pages, dictating innumerable letters to New City, striving to balance the budget. To most of us-to Marcia composing letters designed to 'bring in advertising contracts, Marilyn busily typing them, Dave startling the American Ballad Singers with his flash bulbs, Helen, Leola, ,and Scottie convincing reluctant subscribers to feather their nests with a dollar down, Glenda becoming in- volved in glue, Betty compiling lists of sen- ior activities, Peg mentally groping for the inevitable word, Ina bringing order out of chaos, turning scram'bled notes into legible copy-the Boulder has consisted of intermittently casual and zealous contribu- tions climaxed in a mad maelstrom of ac- tivity just before the deadline. ln the back- ground, Prof. Smith has stood ready to serve us with his puns, his camera, and his advice. The work has been arduous, the prob- lems perplexing, but we have gained in ex- perience, we have received enjoyment from working together- giving and taking to produce a book of memories.

'43-'44 Season t N Artist Series We have heard skillful- musicians play and sing great music, and our lives have been the richer for if. Margaret Speaks Benno Rabinof Felix Salmoncl and Abram Chasins American Ballad Singers Lois Bannerman and Duo Singers Ray Lev ERCY GRAINGER, the Don Cossack Chorus, Albert Spaulding, the Westminster Choir, Ephrem Zimbalist- down through the years since the season of i937-38, outstanding musicians have been visiting our campus, adding steadily to the quality, the prestige, and the in- fluence of the Artist Series. At first the ambitious programs did not pay tor them- selves, 'but gradually attendance has grown, outsiders have acquired the 'habit of attending regularly, and students have realized the pleasurable and cultural po- tentialities of the concerts. To us 'here on the campus, the Artist Series is a privilege not only in the-fact that we can hear immortal music played by great musicians, not only in the tact that we received from the programs a special impetus to graceful social con- duct, but also in the real enjoyment which we receive from each program. More than any other entertainment on the cam- pus, the Artist Series is valuable in the development ot an appreciation and an enjoyment of the esthetic. ' The Artist Series 'has meant the cultur- al enrichment of our lives. lt has meant a deepening of our taste for good music. It has been one more factor in the build- ing of wholesome personalities. ASPING sounds of violins being tuned, the deep plunk of a bass viol, the shrill shriek of a clarinet, the subdued thumping ofa piano, the rumble of a kettledrurn-a din of dissonance, a chaos of discordant sound,-yes, orches- tra rehearsal is beginning. Several sharp thwacks upon the music rack from Professor Cronk's baton, and silence reigns for a moment. Out of this cacophonous melee, out of a com-bination of instrumental music majors and merely fn interested novices, out of a small mem- bership, and a necessarily limited variety of instruments, Prof. Cronk, the orches- tra's indomitable conductor, has develop- ed an organization capable of presenting concerts worthy of high commendation. To those who participate, the orchestra offers a means of joining in cooperative recreation, of encouraging music as an avocation, of applying the principle of learning by doing.

As the strains of Sing We All Now With One Accord breaks forth, individuality fades and the dominant harmony epito- mizes our privilege to serve. 1 1 .7446 Smuice W. Y. P. S.

Athletic Association IELD hockey and 'touch football on rainy autumn afternoons giving way to basketball games on Friday nights in the long winter season, followed in the spring by volleyball, 'baseball, and tennis,-the athletic program in Hough- ton has admitted little change in the quality of ball played in spite of the de- crease in the size of the student body. Much of the credit for the mainten- ance of a high standard of performance should be given to Coach McNeese and to the Athletic Association. lt is this group of eight popularly elected students, presided over by Forrest Gearhart, to whom falls the responsibility for planning the sports schedule, for making decisions upon controversial issues in the realm of athletics such as the question of letters for Frosh men, for sponsoring movies that enliven otherwise dull evenings, for mak- ing the preparations which are essential to the crowning event' of the athletic year-the annual banquet. The Athletic Association is the executive agency for all sports in a school where individual par- ticipation by the greatest possible num- ber ot students is encouraged. The Purple-Gold series in touch foot- ball consisted of four contests packed with action and excitement. First the Gold men were victorious, then the Purple. The third game ended in a tie. In the fourth, the Pharoahs shattered their opponents' prospects of a sensa- tional last minute victory, when Pritchett succeeded in halting Baldy's spectacular Varsity Football Ostrander Earl Campbell W.

Varsity Hockey y lt is for field hockey that the first recruiting in athletics is done every year soon after we return to school, and in past years hockey has served merely as a pleasant way to exercise and train for a rigorous basketball season. This year, however, it has gained classification with other interclass athletic competition in Davis, Schuster, Scott, L. Hoag, Baker, Avery, Hazelwood, Burt, that the first varsity team has been se- lected from its participants. Through- out the season, the seniors have proved themselves worthy of their champion- ship title by winning every game with a team which was capable of both fast and intelligent playing.

The day had been full, but no more so than usual. There 'had been three hours of classes, several hours of work, a little time snatched for recreation or study. Jim was dead tired, but he was up again the next morning to ring the breakfast bell. To us Jim typifies the Life that Houghton builds-conscientious, dili- gent, ready to serve, Jim was always ready to serve his school whether it was by banking fires late at night or by shoveling snow early in the morning. He was ready to serve his classmates by slee-ping in a blanket on the floor of the darkroom as he caught short naps be- tween long stretches of work so that the 1943 Boulder could meet an early dead- line. He was always ready to serve his Christ by extension work, by prayer, and by living one of the most consistent testi- monies on the campus.

UNion 7-2400 ---vm :za max.: germ mmezwf The advertising manager came wandering, be- wildered down the hall. Say, she said to the associate editor, who was emerging from the dark room where Prof. Smith was making some prints of the unphotographable Purple and Gold athletic teams, is steam supposed to come shooting out gof the radiators in the Boulder office? . . . Heavy clouds of steam through the room . . . puddles of water washing away the scraps of paper cut from 'the edges of photographs in the last minute scramble . . . a very, very damp feel- ing to everything in the room . . . NO, said' the associate editor, still in a daze from the news that the Purple Girls' basketball team picture had to be retaken for the third time, I don't think that radiators are supposed to do that. It was the last night before the deadline, and all copy was supposed to be mailed out the next day. Of course, there were three pages with only remote hopes of being completed within the next week or so, but the Boulder staff felt cheerful. Everyone had cooperated beautifully with all of our vagaries. ln fact, no one had even obiected too strenuously to our fsales department propaganda! Prof. Smith had spent 'hours helping us when we were in a jam with our photography. Doc. Luckey and Doc, Paine had lent us their camera equip- ment. Miss 'Burnell was swell about letting us have passes for work at night, and we might have failed without Dr. Ashton's plugs in chapel .... So the associate editor turned off 'the radiators and replaced the valves, which had been removed about an hour before in the 'hope that some heat might lose its way and come to the office. The advertising manager returned to her task of trying to find that quarter page which she had misplaced somewhere. She was down in the third layer of rubbish under the table when Charley came and kicked us all out because it was lO:30. The staff locked. the door and went home to bed . . . They had Feathered their nest , and now they had to lie in it. . . .
