The mandate is ours to take the sacred wisdom, and struggle on in the relay of life to a deeper faith ■in the power of the spirit, and a greater service to our fellow men. ft is the purpose of this book to catch a glimpse of that forward looking spirit of life as it marches onward. ■ • - - _ .- « ■--- — - s — r . ' ileiucattmt To that Spirit of Youth tuhich hears the high call and answers without hesitation; which, bold beyond its strength and ■venturesome beyond its better judgment swiftly undertakes whatever is determined upon ; which shrinks at no cost, but freely sacrifice ' s the fairest offering in its power to give ; which believes that -valor is greater than victory, and truth more abiding than triumph ; which, spending its all in high endeavor sees the best unrealized, but admitting no defeat carries on the work begun: ' To that spirit, which is personified in Albert D. Helser, we, the Junior Class, dedicate this book.

It is the task of the Student Council to formulate student opinion and an- nounce college laws. It meets weekly for business and has charge of chapel once every month. Frank Brower has shown himself a very able President of the body, and under his leadership the Council has attempted to formulate student opinion on such subjects as effect the moral and social life of the College. The student organization is a new experience for Manchester College. Its real testing will come when the newness has worn oft 7 . It is to be hoped that it may have sufficient support from the student body to win a permanent place in the college. , el Page Nineteen M l.A H m p Jordan, Keller, I). Dickey. Brower (Pres.). Wolfe, H. Royer, H. Yoder -- ' A (Ehr Stuhntt (Court Most people will agree that the person who is not a good citizen while in college will not likely be such after school days are over. Acting on this as- sumption, the Student Court has honestly sought to interpret college laws en- acted by the Student Council, and has likewise dealt with violations of these accepted college regulations. Its purpose has not been to hunt for offenders of college regulations, but to help those who have come under its jurisdiction to a better understanding of real citizenship. Since this is a new organization on our campus, and its members are inexperienced in this type of work, the Court has spent many hours in trying to make decisions which would be for the great- est good to the greatest number. We feel that its wisdom, justice, and firmness in dealing with students has won the respect of those who have most severely felt its power. m m I i £ jev 7 Page Twenty Sfkntlty Page Twenty-one Otho Winger, A.M., LL.D.

Burt. Stauffer m Athletic Bnarh of (Control Robert Stauffer, Basketball Coach Carl Burt, Football and Baseball Coach The board has been striving to place athletics in proper proportion to other activities at Manchester. Their endeavors have not been confined to one field, but instead have been divided among four sports, thus giving a chance for a greater number of students to participate. They have given us a good schedule in all four sports during the past year. Their success in keeping athletic work up to what it should be, and avoiding its ever-emphasis is noteworthy indeed. u OUR PEP ARTISTS Kri Edith and Bob Page Scven ' y-six u i 5 Mancliester for the first time in her history had a football schedule and coach. Due to the fact that experienced players were few among the students, only four games were scheduled. The first game was played at Adrian, Michigan, October 10, with a score of 2S-7 in favor of Adrian. Playing against an experienced team seemed to bewilder our players, and it was only in the last quarter that they played with a fighting spirit. The second game was played at Indiana Central, October 17, in a sea of mud. It was a game of errors and fumbles of which Central took advantage. The final score was 12-0 in favor of Indiana Central. The Home- coming 1 ' game, October 3 1, was played here with Muncie Normal. Muncie outplayed us by making a harder fight, and went home carrying the heavy end of the score of 13-7. The last game scheduled was with Danville Normal, here on November 7. Due to continued rain, the game was cancelled, and Danville went home winner by forfeit. Coach Burt, assisted by Prof. Cordier, made a creditable showing by taking inexperienced men and developing players who will make up a good team next year. Loren Snow Evans, outstanding player of this year, will be Captain of the 1926 squad. -J j k v Page Seventy-seven EVANS Snow was our outstanding player. He will captain the 1926 squad.

We were unable to secure a strong schedule until the Golden Boys administered Butler ' s only defeat. Games with Franklin and Wabash were then secured. The Franklin game was played during the Christmas holidays. At the end of the half the score was 12-22 in favor of Franklin. However, the downstaters started to stall too early, and Manchester taking advantage of this, started a rally which gave us the big end of the score of 3 7-39 at the close of the game. In the Wabash game, the jinx of the thirteenth game seemed to prevail, as our boys were unable to find their usual form, and lost, with a score of 22-29. We have secured a stronger schedule for next year, and with the same squad back, Man- chester will have one of the leading teams in the state. Tan. SUMMARY M.

The team had no coach due to the absence of Mr. Burt. There were two games each, with Concordia and Muncie. The first game was played here with Concordia on May 2. M. C. was outclassed and lost by a score of 12-7. The second was also played here, with Muncie. This was the only game won by the brave team, but the grand score of 1 9-5 balanced the losses. The third game was lost to Concordia on May 9, and the last to Muncie on May 16. The lack of coaching was evident, and the opponents were able to turn the tables heavily against us. This spring, with Coach Burt at the helm, and several games scheduled, we are expecting to pile up victories for M. C. and make up for our losses last year. w m m m is 3 fcTrry K Hendrix, R. Winger, Byeriy. 1 ' . Winger (Lcnitis The tennis schedule this year was a good one, anil it was unfortunate for M. C. fans that all the games were away from our campus. The team, composed of Byeriy, Hendrix, P. Winger, and R. Winger, went to Terre Haute for the first game, but lost with a score of 5-1. Then came a two-day trip, first to DePauw, where Manchester came to the top with a score of 4-2, and the following day duplicated this record by defeating Wabash with the same score. This was the outstanding trip of the season, and it showed the strength of the team. The next venture was a three day trip to Muncie, Indianapolis and Terre Haute. At Muncie the boys showed their skill unequaled, and came out with flying colors, the score being 6-0. They met, at Indianapolis, the V. M. C. A. te am, which was composed of three members. This match ended with a tie score, 2-2. In the final lap of Terre Haute, the boys were not able to hold their stride, and lost 2-+. Terre Haute seemed to be a jinx of the season as our defeats were at their hands. On May 27, Manchester entered the state meet at Muncie. In the doubles Byeriy and R. Winger defeated Muncie but were then defeated, after a hard contest, by Purdue. In the first round of the singles Hendrix lost to Nisbit of DePauw, P. Winger defeated Xoll of Indiana Central, and R. Winger defeated Thompson of DePauw. In the second round P. Winger de- feated Nisbit of DePauw and R. Winger lost to Jones of Earlham. In the third round P. Winger lost to Williams of Terre Haute. K-3 n) Page Eighty-five IWs ' (Sttfraimtral gasket IBall s As basketball is the leading sport at Manchester, a good intramural tournament was possible. There were ten teams entered, each team playing two games with each other team. The stand- ing was allotted on the percentage basis. As the season drew to a close the Pirates and the Speedboys were tied for first place. The final game was played as a preliminary to one of the varsity games. The Pirates came out on top, winning the cup and medals. Janus ' Jithnor IBase Ball During the fall term the intramural activities were confined to indoor baseball.

Every Affirmative team that the Negative met in our state fell in confusion when the Unlucky Thirteenth Amendment was brought forward to expose the fact that there was no need for a constitutional amendment to protect our children from the ravages of Industrialism. February 20, the Negative team met Heidelburg University ' s champion team on the home floor, and after a hard struggle placidly took the rear. Profiting by the sad experience, the Affirmative contenders of Purdue were vanquished on February 27. After they had mustered up enough courage to make an attack, the Affirmative team of Indiana State Normal made an un- successful stand against the Negative, and accepted defeat. The judges for the first two debates were, Professor Brigance of Wabash, and Professor Seifert of Butler respectively. The last debate was a three judge debate. AW I ft Page Ninety s i m: rv, Landis, E. Royer, ( ' . Byerly, D. Dickey (Cant.) ' Affcmattfre Brhate (Leant The burden of proof for the question, Resolved, that the Child Labor Amendment to the Constitution be ratified, was bravely and sincerely undertaken by the Affirmative Team. The widespread amount of child labor in the United States, the inability of the states to adequately remedy the evil, and the need of national legislation for a national problem, caused the affirmative to build a strong case in favor of ratification. In spite of the fact that there is much opposition to the amendment, they contended that the amendment was inherently sound and desirable, and that the opposition was based on false propaganda, spread by those who would use chikl labor in industry to a selfish advantage. The Affirmative had two combats, in which they fought fiercely, spurred b Coach Conkling, whose time and ability were given unselfishly for both teams. On February 27 they journeyed to Butler College at Indianapolis and met defeat against the scholarly and experienced Butler team. The defeat was in reality a stimulus to harder effort and finer constructed argument, so that on March 5, on the home floor, they defeated the negative team from Indiana Central College. iv Ninctv-onc L- E Paul Kendall Benjamin Stoner (§ratnru STATE ORATORICAL CONTEST Manchester places a high premium on good oratory, and ever strives to make it a vital part of the school ' s activities. This year Manchester had the privilege of entertaining the State Oratorical Contest, and was represented by an able man with an able oration. Mr. Benjamin Stoner spent an untold number of hours perfecting his oration on Nationalism. 1 ' It proved to be a very beautiful and scholarly production. We are glad that Mr. Stoner has two more years in college in which to make a contribution to the forensic activities. STATE PEACE CONTEST For several years Manchester has sent an orator to the State Peace Contest. This year we were represented by Mr. Paul Kendall at the contest which was held at Purdue University. Mr. Kendall ' s oration was loaded with logic, and was made up of an unusually fine choice of words and phrases. The title of his oration was When War Shall Cease. It was a production worthy of Mr. Kendall ' s presentation, and was a credit to the college which he represented.

The Men ' s Glee Club of Manchester College is one of a number of permanent organizations connected with the school. Business is brought before the club by its President, Ernest Boyer. It has a constitution and regulations. Last year, on its various trips, the Club traveled approximately fifteen hundred miles, singing to a large number of churches and schools in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan. This year a ten day tour is planned, aiming to give messages in song which are both entertaining and inspirational. Professor Roy Dilling is the Director.

Professor Bover, the able director, who through his untiring efforts and great enthusiasm to make the Society a success, planned three programs for the year. Just before Christmas a cantata The Coming of The King, very rich and beautiful in music and dramatization, began success- fully tlie season for public programs from the Choral Society. On March 26, the Society gave a program consisting of Old English and German songs, all of the best grade. These were rendered in a way that showed the good work of the Society. Two cantatas, Pan and Lochinvar, marked the close of the year ' s programs. These were very pretty indeed, and were given with much pleasure by the members of the Society.

The paper has a conservative policy, and only articles which show evidence of high idealism are published. The editor is chosen from and by the student body, from a list of names submitted by the Student Council. The system of election only proves that the paper is a fair and reasonable vox populi. The paper is very newsy and readable, and alumni and former students are constantly giving voice to the opinion that homes of Manchester graduates and students are complete, only, if a copy of Oak Leaves is always in sight.

Each year Manchester College has entertained and upheld the highest ideals and standards of humanity through her dramatic department. The great influence of dramatic productions can never fully be realized, but our lives are somehow touched by the humor and pathos presented, and we are inspired to ever keep pushing forward toward the goal of our dreams. The class of 1925 awakened within the hearts of everyone the realization of the unconscious influence of our lives on others, through the presentation of the play The Passing of the Third Floor Back. As a fitting close of three years ' work in the Expression Department, Miss Lois Forney, Miss Mary Gilbert and Miss Gertrude Book each gave an interpretative Reading Recital of the follow- ing books respectively, Red Pepper Burns, by Grace Richmond; The Following of the Star, by Barclay, and A Singular Life, by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps. During commencement week of 1925, the Expression Department entertained a large and appreciative audience through the presentation of three short plays, namely: Overtones, Spreading the News, and the Greek play Pygmalion. Tile Senior Class of this year admirably presented the Old English Classic, The Rivals, by Sheridan, a comedy of the highest tvpe. - 4 • M n ORGANIZATIONS _., .

It has become an indispensable part of the college activities, and has many times shown its usefulness. The programs are devoted to ardent discussions on current events, research work, reports, special papers, and informal talks on social conditions. The programs have less entertainment and more scholarly training. The club has an enrollment of nineteen members, each having met the required amount of History or Social study.

Truly one ' s education is not complete unless he has a taste of the course in Dormitory Life. The Men ' s Student Government ingrains in the lives of the students the principles and the rules of a democratic government which are helpful to proper environment and essential to proper college discipline. It is only natural and right that man should strive to become self-governing, for he makes his own moral choices.

This group is composed of students who are preparing themselves for active Christian work, either in the homeland or abroad. During the period of their stay at Manchester they meet weekly to study problems and discuss various phases of the work that awaits them. The group at Manchester is made up of three divisions: the Foreign Volunteers, the Home Volunteers, and affiliated with these two, the Student Ministerial Association. Meetings are held each Monday evening. On alternating weeks the three divisions meet as one, and on the inter- vening week the sections meet separately. During the school year members of the group go out in teams to carry missionary informa- tion and enthusiasm into the churches of Manchester and surrounding territory. These activities help to keep the constituency of the college in touch with the work done here, and at the same time helps the students to develop their spiritual life and talents.

Manchester College is proud to have in her student body some young men who have responded to this call, and are preparing themselves for it. These students make up the local organization, which has for its purpose the fostering of the educational needs of young ministers, and the supplying of active workers for some nearby fields. The Association has not had such an extensive program of its own this year, as previously, since it lias been merged with the Volunteer Group and is functioning with it. It is still busy in the field, however, and several churches are enjoving ministerial and pastoral help from its members. I m : h 81 B B aBU Ku fi I 4 ' K Jy ' , !

W. Shultz, Religions Activities Com. Adviser The College Sunday School, led by an able corps of teachers and officers, is striving earnestly to promote the great cause of Christian education. Believing that the greatest inspiration and help can come from direct study of the Bible itself, the Bible is used in the classes. Thus the student has a continuous and unbroken teaching from the books of the Bible chosen for study. The Sunday School is doing a very definite missionary work in the support of Sister Laura Shock on the mission field in China. The students are not only given the opportunity to develop a missionary spirit by contributing to missions through the regular Sunday offering, but also through letters which are being written to Miss Shock every two weeks. The West End Chapel also is supported in part by the College Sunday School. The Sunday School is affiliated with the county, district, and State organizations; support being given in a financial way as well as in the sending of representatives to the various con- ventions held. t 4 ;c m Page One Hundred Sixteen m t z A W k m 1 mm J 1 1 MmJm s s H| • ■- «5B P IH I H iH k. jH F ! 1 1M HL , E h itt b (8 I ■ ®he ,JMtsstmt (Ulmpel OFFICERS Clarence Shockley, Pastor Virgil Kindv, Sunday School Superintendent Velma Clannin, Chorister The work at the West End Mission this year has been under the direction of Clarence Shockley as pastor, and Virgil Kindy as Superintendent of the Sunday School. The Mission has filled a very definite need in its section of the town. There has been a ' great deal of practical work done in administering to the sick, of whom there has been a large number. Many have been given an opportunity to attend regular services, which they would otherwise not have had. The work is fostered by the college, and students have spent much of their time to make the project a success. The greatest credit should be given to the two leaders who have so willingly given themselves to the work, and who have in turn received much help from the experience. Much is to be hoped for in this field of work in the future. Page One Hundred Seventeen -A (Elje Clollcgc BUmum ' s (Elitli During the past year, this organization, whose active membership includes the lady teachers, and the wives of the men of the faculty, held its joint and sectional meetings each month, as usual. Mrs. M. M. Phcrrick, President of the club, conducted the work of the year in a very creditable manner. Some of the outstanding features of the joint meetings were, a trip over the Frances Slocum Trail, talks by Miss Vogt, who spent several years in Ceylon, on Education in Ceylon, talks by R. H. Miller on his European travels, and talks by Mrs. Elizabeth Daughertv, the State Representative. The social side was in evidence at the teas given to the lady students, the Lady Guest Party, when each member invited a lady guest, and the annual C. W. C. Banquet, when the men of the faculty and others were guests. At the latter function the club was fortunate to have Dr. D. W. Kurtz present, who spoke on The Philosophy of Art. These meetings, where teachers, homemakers, and students mingle, create a bond of closer friendship, understanding and purpose. | gfy i2 k e Page One Hundred Eighteen f- ' A faritente ' fflfa (Club rvl OFFICERS Mrs. Emmf.rt Florv, President Mrs. Russell Sherman, Vice President Mrs. Lloyd Markuv, Secretary-Treasurer Mrs. Li ich Freed, Assistant Sec ' y-Treas. m There were Societies tor the girl students and a Club for the College Women, but there was no place for the wives of the students in the social life of M. C. In the fall of 1424 the wives met and organized a club of their own. With Mrs. Robert Winger as first president, the club was well founded and a movement started which has been continued to the present time. The membership has steadily grown, and this year there were thirty-one who enjoyed this social activity. Each month meetings were held in the various homes where a committee ni four furnished the entertainment. With this splendid foundation, the club should become a permanent organization of the school, and furnish interesting and individual entertainment for the wives of the students of Manchester College. 1 k 1 Page One Hundred Nineteen Page One Hundred Twenty Page One Hundred Twenty-one Page One Hundred Twenty-two § d if } A 1 Wc t Rummer Hjantlty It is in summer when all the earth is singing with the joy of developing life, that students and faculty alike, are permeated with the spirit of growth, work, each one in his own sphere, not for reward but for the joy of learning. Then it is that we learn to know the faculty, not as professors, but as men and women, as friends and comrades. We regret that so many of the 1925 faculty are no longer with us. Some have gone to other fields of service and others are away, we trust only temporarily. i w M Page One Hundred Twenty-three v i ZJ m 4 m m m m X-A 1 i fc-y Stump Stebbms a I M vHl f n 9 -5 (9 h Sarqent York Cochran Leckrcme Sp ' ma. a wsl m in K3 I M.

Her weekly programs furnished literary education, social development, self-expression and entertainment for her members. The high ideals of Emersonia cause us to value fellowship, and instruct us in understanding, sympathizing with, and appreciating our fellow students. Our obligation to the society calls forth our extreme resourcefulness and gives practice in clear thinking and forceful speaking. Our faculty adviser, Miss Bennett, was exceedingly helpful and capable of filling her position ably.

Though among the younger insti- tutions of the state, it is one of the most virile. Unknown and unheralded fifteen years ago, it today occupies an enviable position in the higher educational program of Northern Indiana, and among the constituency of the Church of the Brethren in the Middle West. The alumni now number in the thousands and are occupying positions of trust and honor in many sections of the world. Their influence is international. The Alumni, not unmindful of the debt they owe, are always interested in the well being of their Alma Mater. Many are the anxious eyes and ears directed Manchesterward. The Chimes and the Winger fund were fostered by that body. Just now they are entertaining a program looking forward to a new gymnasium-auditorium. It is their desire that funds may be obtained, so that in the near future a building may grace the campus which will be sufficient to house the growing physical program for years to come. All hail to the Greater Manchester College! (Alumni editor ' s note — Owing to the growth of the Alumni Association, we are unable to give space to the entire list of graduates.

The lovely and gracious Queen wends her way to the college woods where the Queen of the preceding year places the Royal Crown upon her head. Then, surrounded by her royal attendants, Maid of Honor, and the whole retinue of her train, begins her short but absolute reign.

Old friends and class mates renew friendships with some they have not seen for years. The first homecoming day was October 31, 1925. Hundreds of Alumni and visitors will remember the foot-ball game with Muncie, the big dinner and the happy reunions of that day. Homecoming Day is to be celebrated each fall.

It is the day when our Seniors, who have worked together for four years and who are soon to separate, ditch their studies, cares, husbands, wives, and sweethearts, and go to spend the day together in some quiet place. Here they learn to know each other much better, and strengthen friendships which, because of this day, may last a lifetime. Thus all receive a very rich and valuable experience on Ditch Day in addition to a well earned good time. y m Slant Hall (Contest 7 M m An event in which the differences between the Freshmen and Sophomores are settled is the Slam Ball Contest. It is an event every fall which tests the mettle and sportsmanship of each class. Last fall the old athletic field was wet and muddy and rather a slippery time was experienced by the contestants. The slam ball itself is a large ball three feet in diameter filled with air and this is slammed back and forth by the players to make a goal. Different teams of Freshmen and Sophomore boys took part in the contest which ended with the score 8-0 in favor of the Freshmen. u M One Hundred Forty-nine m % PL ttxmt £2 Si p I m m m The retreat of the Y.
