For each one of us this year has meant many things — new experiences, new friends, new ideas — with every day a vivid page from the book of our lives. There has been pleasure, romance — yes, and tragedy too, with each of the eight-hundred plus of us experiencing all three. This volume is an attempt to capture some of the highlights of the year, some of the myriad activities which make attendance at college the unforgettable adventure that it is. And so, we present — the story of a year. Don Durnbaugh, EDITOR Ed Butterbaugh, BUSINESS MANAGER . y i i f ' - ' - ' - . - This is the story of a year — to be explicit, the story of the school year beginning on September 5, 1947, upon the invasion of the campus by the frosh, and reaching a conclusion on May 31, 1948, with the rite of bestowing into the hands of the departing seniors their diplomas, one-way tickets to the future. The list of characters includes the not-so lowly freshmen, smack-dab in the middle of a spanking-new experience; the sophomores, confident in the knowledge that they are all-knowing and all-seeing; the jun- iors, just learning how terribly much they still have to learn; the seniors, monarchs of the campus, readying themselves for the on- slaught of the bright unknown; the faculty, whose staggering task it is to instill somehow into this heterogeneous mixture the nebulous spark called education. Here we are, from many states of the union, from fertile farms and bustling urban areas, some of us fresh from high school, some via the service. But as varied as we are, we have but one purpose, and that is to acquire the elusive education. For each of us, the word different connotation; for some, it means facts, statistics, booklarnin , for others, the discovery of a 0 carries a statistics, booklarnin personal potentials and adequate ways of adjusting our lives to make for harmonious relationships with others. Here at Man- chester we find the happy medium, the environment where ade- quate knowledge may be acquired, and, moreover, where there is sufficient opportunity for developing socially. Not the least important of Manchester ' s advantages is the personal interest shown by each professor for each student, resulting in the enrichening friendships between faculty mem- bers and students, so lacking on the campus of the large university. ■ ■ ■■ H A cross-section of these eight-hundred plus reveals a wide variance in reasons for attending Manchester College. The two main divisions are possibly those who come for thorough techni- cal training, perhaps in education, music, science, or pre-profes- sional pursuits, and those who are seeking a broad, general, cultural education, in the Christian environment of this church- affiliated institution. And this very disparity of interests, plus differences in personalities and concepts, provides the catalyst which stimulates the interplay, the mental battles that lead to _ _ _ __ a genuine education. Through class-room discussions, skillfully guided by alert professors, the interchange of opinion goes on, resulting in mutual benefit. The old college bromide exhorts that one shouldn ' t let his studies interfere with his education, and M. C. students assuredly take this maxim to heart. In accord with college regulations, every student must affiliate with at least one club or activity per term, while the average student surpasses this minimum require- ment easily. With no paucity of choices, there being musical, religious, dramatic, forensic, athletic, and departmental groups to choose from, the d ilemma of which to limit oneself to usually is in store. Thus through all the multitudinous activities that spell college life . . . bull-sessions . . . clubs . . . social life . . . class-room discussions . . . programs . . . committee work . . . the complicated machinery labors and brings forth, with all its fine connotations — a Manchester student!

September 5, 1947 . . . and some 281 freshmen arrive from the corners of the nation, take a long look around and a deep breath, and plunge into the event-crammed program of Fresh- men Daze. They first congregate in the chapel, which they are to become very familiar with in the months to come, hear Presi- dent Schwalm welcome them in his address, are introduced to faculty members, led on a quick tour of the campus conducted by some upperclassmen, have their first meal picnic style on the lawn in back of Oakwood. Then they return to the chapel for an introduction to By The Kenapocomoco and Manchester College, Hail to Thee, meet some student leaders, hear an address by Dean Bollinger, then spend the first night in the strange surroundings. And so the first days go, with tests and addresses rampant, with conferences, wrestlings with trial programs, social events and mixers, the first trip to a local church, the first box lunch! And then it ' s Monday, with matriculation and practically pain- less extraction of any surplus money needlessly bulging a wallet. And throughout all these hectic moments, the continual process of meeting and striking up of friendships with roommates, fellow dorm-dwellers, and simply kindred souls goes on, making of these first few days at Manchester ones always to be remem- bered. The upper-classmen begin returning, greeting friends with joyous calls, quickly getting back into the normal routine, making themselves comfortable in their rooms, looking over the new crop of freshmen, generally enjoying their long-awaited return to college life. In the meantime the class of ' 51 has been thoroughly orientated , and except for a faintly bewildered look in the eye, has become virtually undistinguishable from the other classes. Cliques have already formed, with a quick gathering of like- minded students, perhaps to endure throughout the year, perhaps to be broken up in time. ■■■■ ■■i H H lHI H Page eleven ke counieling Set-up under tlte direction of Jjean vJoltlnaer, assisted t u iVliSi oDorottiu Aones, was active in aidinq students to evatuate tlteir abilities tlirouqii extensive use of ttie testinq proqranu Page twelve The decision of the cour ses to be taken led naturally to the trip to the book store, where the student exchanged quite a few- pennies for some crisp, new texts. Again standing in those long, long lines was the order of the day. Then the hour arrived when the stude wandered into his first class, looked around at his classmates, eyed the prof specula- tively and said inwardly, Here I am; educate me. The first meeting of a class, always exciting, becomes more so when the individual wonders if he is going to like the course, the prof, the pretty blonde two seats ahead. He found his seat in chapel, making a whole row stand up, only to discover that he was in the wrong one. He made his first pilgrimage to the newly opened cafeteria, commented about its spaciousness, began the nightly habit of dropping over to the Oaks for a coke and a conversation. Our h ero took in his first horse opera of the season at the local cinema, got the first malt at Wayne ' s, and tiring of other amusements, adjourned to the abode for a big feed and bull session. He swapped stories of summer adventures ' till late into the night. And so the year of 1947-48 began.

WAMPLER The 1948 AURORA staff takes pride in dedicating this annual to Mrs. Sadie S Wampler in recognition of her devoted service to Manchester College. Connected with the college since 1907, at which time she was secured as the head of the Department of Arts and Expression, Mrs. Wampler holds the distinction of having tenure over any other person actively connected with the college. A person with wide and varied interests and talents, Mrs. Wampler had difficulty choosing between the fields of art, music, and drama. She finally chose to emphasize drama, since it encompassed the other two and thereby had the greatest opportunities. Mrs. Wampler has, in the past forty years, made dramatics a vital part of campus life and established a high quality in her productions which has received wide acclaim. On each one of her plays she has spent long hours of seemingly thankless devotion so that it might uphold the traditional high standards of a Wampler production. She constantly kept this in mind: The play ' s the thing! Under her capable sponsorship, Tri Alpha and Alpha Psi Omega, campus dramatic organizations, have flourished. For this complete and unsacrificing service which has endeared her to students, alumni and friends alike, we wish to dedicate this AURORA to Mrs. Wampler. Page forty-five ORGANIZATIONS a Page forty-seven STUDENT PRESIDENT CARLTON STODDARD Carlton Bud Stoddard, readily recognizable by that cheery smile, friendly greeting, raucous ties, determined chin, comes under the spotlight as the biggest B.M.O.C. of all, our student prexy. Way back in 1941 Bud matriculated at Manchester as a green rhinie, winning a varsity letter that year as a harrier. Listening to Uncle Sam ' s plea that the army could not get along without him, he had to leave school before September rolled around again, spending four years in the infantry, where he made captain, served as platoon leader and company commander. Upon returning to M.C., his army credits and performance on the G.E.D. tests boosted him to the junior ranks. His stellar emoting in the Tri Alpha Servant in the House and Barretts of Wimpole Street brought him into the campus limelight, with his true histronic talents being displayed on the A Cappella choir tour last spring. During his incumbency. Bud has contributed much toward smoother student- faculty relations, handling efficiently the major and minor tasks of his office. He has been deservedly elected to Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities. While still interested in voice, art, and dramatics, his major is in education. He plans to obtain his M.A. degree in education, with a principal ' s office as the objective. Being a loyal Buckeye, he plans to enter the teaching profession in Ohio. To Bud Stoddard go our plaudits for a difficult job well done. Page forty-eight STUDENT COUNCIL GOVERNS Mark another one up for the Student Council. They initiated a tradition this year by awarding a baseball bat to the class winning the athletic events at the all-school Camp Mack outing, the bat this year being engraved with Class of ' 51. The outing, sponsored by the Student Council, is but one among a host of events including Homecoming, Breakaway, Valentine Banquet, May Day. Printing the programs for the gridiron and court contests, having charge of the manifold elections, listening to the current student moans were more of the tasks of our august body. Amid the cries of Gestapo, the members assumed responsibility for enforcing the rules newly set up for conduct in the social room. Prexy Bud Stoddard ably presided over council meetings, attained the reputation of a facile phrase-maker with his chapel announcements, including the famous reference to the Hatchery. Student Councilers sojourned to I.U., attending a Student Government Clinic, worried about where the money from the general fees went to, toyed with the idea of changing the archaic AURORA setup, presented a new scheme for community government, embodying several sweeping changes.

Providing those interesting displays in the library each week is only one of the myriad duties of the hard-working library staff. With their quiet efficiency some of these twenty students are always on duty taking care of periodicals, cataloguing, ordering books, doing secretarial work, relieving the students of their spare change for overdue books, checking out tomes. They are always willing to help anxious students find material on obscure topics. Parties are usually held four times a year — outdoor parties in the fall and spring, a Christmas party, and a party honoring the graduating seniors on the staff. Librarian Miss Ruth Coblentz and her assistant Mrs. Don Garber call frequent staff meetings to give information and instruction regarding current problems.

Book Fair, under the general chairmanship of Ruth Hilbert, was a highlight enjoyed by the whole student body. F.T.A. also sponsored a team composed of Donald Schlatter, Vivian Blanchard, Rose Ann Daugherty who visited neighboring colleges giving panel discussions. A library of about 300 books was collected for the Piney Woods school in Mississippi. Page sixty-three CIVIC SYMPHONY GIVES CONCERTS Behind the scenes — behind the exquisite music — the flowers — the formals — what do orchestra members remember? They remember their first rehearsal with the orchestra — the intro- ductions, the welcoming applause, the new music, learning the conductor ' s signals, meeting new friends, recognizing old ones. After that there are more rehearsals, taking music home to practice, group rehearsals, practice with soloists, business meetings, the ten minute intermissions, paying dues. But the love of music makes all this seem unimportant. Before each concert the type of dress must be decided — formals unpacked and pressed, suits brushed, white collars starched. At the last big rehearsal held at Central High School on Saturday night, Dr. and Mrs. Fueckiger treat everyone to ice cream bars. The rehearsal lasts until late, for the concert is next day.

Page sixty-four WITH A CAPPELLA CHOIR, QUICK Promptly at three o ' clock on Sunday afternoon the symphony members take their places, the concertmaster comes in, and everyone is seated. A final check on the tuning and then the president of the North Manchester Civic Symphony Society, Miss Mary Louise Little, introduces the conductor. Dr. S. L Flueckiger. The baton is poised — the orchestra alert — the audi- ence tense. Beautiful music fills the auditorium and the concert has begun. Perhaps the short prayer backstage helped to give the players their poise and confidence. The solo group for the fall concert was Manchester College ' s ovirn A Cappella Choir, directed by Prof. Clyde Holsinger. Mr. Robert Quick, violinist, and the high school winner of a Talent Quest were soloists at the winter and spring concerts respectively. DR. S. L. FLUECKIGER, conductor.

The 36 piece orchestra is rehearsed twice weekly by Prof. Vernon Stinebaugh. Activities for the year included two chapel programs, a concert at the Wabash County Choral Festival, a concert at the Teachers ' Fall Clinic at Fort Wayne to demonstrate string methods and materials. Executive duties were filled by Lois Bagwell, prexy; Carl Shultz, vice presi- dent; Corlyle Drake, treasurer. The String Symphony was started just last year.

Fleuckiger, Ehrmin, The open-air concert by the hallowed fountain with the audience lounging on blankets in the soft twilight air listening to the melodious melodies, harmonic harmonies, and airy airs highlighted the spring activities of the Manchester Band. Throughout the pigskin season, the band members marched, marched, then marched some more, learned new forma- tions, memorized music, bravely froze to death while performing during the half- times. Two sections under student directors alternated efforts in catalyzing the enthu- siasm for the cage battles. Bill Eberly was the people ' s choice, with Corlyle Drake as vice president, while Ed Hollenberg was drum major, with Mary Adine Eley the secretary- treasurer. MAJORETTES Highstepping Lela Joseph, Ruth Cumminb and Winona Swope were the three major- ettes who added snap to Manchester Col- lege ' s band. The coeds made their new out- fits from old band uniforms. Page sixty -seven CHORAL SOCIETY GIVES HANDEL ' S 4 JOHN BECHTELHEIMER, president. Early this fall, one of the largest groups on the campus met for its organization. This was the North Manchester Choral Society, better known as just Choral Society. Under the capable direction of Prof. Clyde Holsinger, the society was composed of the Women ' s Glee Club, Men ' s Glee Club, A Cappella Choir, all other interested students and people from North Manchester and vicinity. John Bechtelheimer was elected president of the group, with Betty Butler the vice president. Holding the respon- sible positions of secretary and treasurer were Dorothy Blicken- staff and Joe Penrod respectively. Each year, Choral Society presents two major productions. The first half of the year was devoted entirely to preparation for Handel ' s The Messiah , the traditional production given at Christmas. Regular Tuesday evening rehearsals were held, during which Director Holsinger usually displayed the patience of Job. K Page sixty-eight MESSIAH HAYDN ' S SEASONS Early in December, a forty-piece orchestra, part of the Civic Symphony, began practicing with the singers. Practices were lengthened. Final rough places were ironed out. The Messiah was presented on Sunday evening, December 14, to a capacity crowd. Singing the solo parts were Marilyn Palmer, soprano, of Chicago, Illinois; Martha Stinebaugh Yohe, contralto, of Pitsburg, Ohio; Kenneth Henriksen, tenor, of Park Ridge, Illinois; Wilson Jones, bass, of New York, New York. Prof. Max Allen was the organist. The combination of the 300- voice choir, the guest soloists, orchestra, and organ was thrilling as the oratorio progressed from the peaceful beginning to a climax in the mighty Amen Chorus . After taking a well-deserved rest. Choral Society started work in February on Haydn ' s The Seasons , presented toward the end of the year. A handsome portfolio was presented to Director Holsinger by the group as a token of appreciation. PROF.

Directed by Prof. Holsinger and prexied by Virginia Priest, the Women ' s Glee Club mode several changes, the size being decreased from 90 to a more selective 60. To make the club more eye-appealing as well as ear-appealing, Barbara Stutsman headed a committee which selected uniform Gibson girl blouses with voluminous black ties. Their fall appearance for the Indiana Musicians ' Association was complimented when the dean of Jordan College praised the group ' s singing very highly. The group sang in chapel, at local churches, par- ticipated in Choral Society and the spring concert. Vice president was Mary Esther Brown; treasurer, Betty Lou Hershberger; and secretary, Pauline Anderson. WOMEN ' S TRIO The women ' s trio, Mary Kathryn Cooper, Ruth Mary Halladay, and Miriam McGuire, made numerous appearances during the year, furnishing entertainment and worship for the whole college area. Janice Hoff ac- companied this group. Page seventy MALE SONGSTERS ORGANIZE FIRST ROW: L. Bollinger, Klepmger, Burke, R. Kelly, Kenneth Miller, Brightbill, F, Priser, Silvius. SECOND ROW: Wort, E.

Under college supervision this year, the Men ' s Glee Club might well be called a young but hearty infant. The fall te rm organization found Prof. Holsinger taking over its directorship, Glen Campbell the presidency, Wilson Lutz acting both as vice president and accompanist. Simultaneously, Roger Kelly and Charles Voorheis tucked the secretary and treasurer ' s books under their arms. Although the group was heard singing off-stage at the Christmas concert, its formal debut was not made until the Cupid ' s Holiday program. The glee club also appeared in the spring concert, in addi- tion to participating in Choral Society. MEN ' S QUARTETTE Charles Klingler, John Bechtelheimer, Cal- vin Early and Jack Hartman sang throughout the year, appearing at near-by high schools, churches, clubs, alumni meetings. Spring found them touring Michigan with the wom- en ' s trio.

President Roy Miller steered the group through the year, with assistance from vice president Gretchen Gierman, secretary Mary Adine Eley, and treasurer Harold Yost. In addition to its regular chapel appearances, the group assisted the Civic Symphony in its fall concert, gave programs in Wabash, LaFontaine, Warsaw and other surrounding communities, was a unit group of Choral Society, gave a spring concert. Immediately preceding Easter, an extensive spring tour was taken throughout Illinois. Page seventy-two VARSITY DEBATERS WIN PLAUDITS FIRST ROW: Prof. Lefforge, Phil Parker, Elsie Rossmanith, Jerome Wait, Wayne Miller. SECOND ROW; Joe Ablett, Ellis Hays, Glen Crago, Bill Gorden, Roger Sappington. THIRD ROW; Ray Summers, Eugene Lenker, Irvin Hoff, Dwight Smith, Ralph Yaney, Dick Speicher. Resolved: That a Federal World Government Should Be Established. Only a varsity debater can fully appreciate that statement, for to him it represents hours upon hours of research and work. Manchester ' s forensic teams made trips to Illinois Normal, Purdue University, DePauw, Indiana State, Indiana University, University of Wisconsin, Goshen College during the year in addi- tion to playing host in the winter to a small tournament which included Goshen College and Ball State. Discussion trips were also taken to Purdue and Indiana University, the question for discussion being: What should be done to insure peaceful relations among the nations of the world? The team, faculty advised by Prof. Lefforge, won honors, garnered forensic glory. Page seventy-three JUNIOR VARSITY REMAINS ACTIVE FIRST ROW: Prof. Lelforge, Stan Bittinger, Jane Benner, Mary Nichols, Vivian Swihart; Wayne Miller, coach. SECOND ROW; Herb Williams, Don Miller, Sidney Spencer, Kenneth Miller, Dean Van Tilbury. The Junior Varsity Debate is an organization designed for those of the better intramural debaters who wished to go further in debate. Each term the best debaters from the Communications 107 classes were given the privilege of entering Junior Varsity, there to increase their ability in debating and public speaking. Acting in the role of student advisor was Wayne Miller, with Prof. Lefforge supervising the group as faculty advisor. Programs during the year included practice debates, extemporaneous speaking, after-dinner speaking, discussions on various subjects, parliamentary drill, just good times. Actual situations were simulated as far as possible, such as the actual banquet held in the winter for the junior varsity members, followed by after-dinner speeches. Page seveniy-four T. K. A. FETES FORMER MEMBERS Prof. Lefforge, Ralph Yaney, Elsie Rossmanith, Wayne Miller, Glen Crago. Tau Kappa Alpha, national forensic honorary fraternity, had only four student members at the beginning of the year: Elsie Rossmanith, Glen Crago, Wayne Miller, and Ralph Yaney. But, differentiating between quality and quantity, the group insisted that members excel in speech, be of high scholastic standing. Leading the group through the year was President Wayne Miller and Secretary-Treasurer Glen Crago. Homecoming found the local chapter playing host at a tea for former T.K.A. members and their families. Prominent among forensic activities this year was a discussion trip to Purdue. Spring marked the pledging of new members, characterized by the wearing of T.K.A. ribbons, recitation of Mark Antony ' s funeral oration, bizarre activities — soap- box orations and the pledge ' s compliance with all wishes of T.K.A. members.

Ably directed by Mrs. Wampler, with Mary Kathryn Cooper, Barbara Stutsman, Louise Bollinger, Mary Denlinger and Betty Lou Hersh- berger the assistant directors, the cast of eighteen was headed by Susan Riggleman as Portia, Craig Cameron as Antonio, Jim Overholt as Bassonio. The presentation of Norman Krasna ' s two-act comedy Dear Ruth wowed the campus on December 1. Louise Bollinger as Ruth, Jim Overholt as Bill provided the romantic interest, with Barbara Dickey as the younger sister. Dean Lehman as the Judge adding to the humor. Prexying the Tri Alphians was Otho Wolfe, assisted by vice president Tex Weldy, treasurer Ed Butterbaugh, secretary Mary Ellen Sparling, correspond- ing secretary Mary Denlinger. Page seventy-six EIGHT IN ALPHA PSI OMEGA Dick Hossler, Carlton Stoddard, Merlin Shull, Sue Riggleman, Otho Wolfe, Howard Uhrig, Gilbert Weldy. Being elected to Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatic fraternity, is the highest honor which an aspiring actor can receive on Manchester ' s campus. After first becoming a member of Tri Alpha, one can achieve member- ship in the local chapter by obtaining a specified number of points, earned by participation in dramatic events, serving on various committees, writing scripts, working on stage, costumes or advertising. The local cast, designated as Iota Psi, had eight members on campus at the beginning of the year: Mrs. Sadie S. Wampler and Mr. Howard Uhrig, of the faculty, and Otho Wolfe, Dick Hossler, Gilbert Weldy, Susan Riggleman, Carlton Stoddard, and Merlin Shull, the latter filling the presidential chair. New members were pledged in the spring.

THIRD ROW: Tony Gonzales, Ray Bowman, Richard Shonk, Bill Clarke, La Dean Dick, Pedro Seda, Tom Riethof, Gilberto Claudio. Newly organized this year, the Club Espahol was formed because of the increasing number of Spanish students and foreign students from Spanish- speaking countries, because of the growing emphasis placed on inter-American relations. Tony Gonzales was found holding the presidential gavel following the fall-term election, with Richard Shonk in the vice presidential position. Marion Fleming, as secretary, was faced with translating the minutes into Spanish, and Shirley Younker was treasurer. Richard Shonk headed the organziation the winter term, with Pedro Seda, Marion Fleming, Mary Esther Brown filling the positions of vice president, secretary, and treasurer respec- tively. Featured during the year were speakers who had traveled in Spanish- speaking countries, movies on related subjects. A Christmas pihata was enjoyed by the group sponsored by Dr. Illes.

A free translation indicates that the new name of the German Club is the Katzenjammer Kinder. The fall term found Ernie Barr in the key position, with John Karns, vice president; Ruth Mary Halladay, secretary-treasurer. Jerome Wait assumed presidential responsibilities in the winter, assisted by Roy Valencourt as vice president, Esther Rinehart as secretary-treasurer. The activities were varied, including a study of conditions in Germany, singing from the new German song books, sponsorship of a relief project, talks by students who had been in Germany, studies of German art and music. In the spring a valentine ' s party was held, German Club cooperated with the other language groups in presenting a special all-school program, a German-written constitution was formulated by the club.

THIRD ROW: Dale Blough, Craig Cameron, Rich- ard Shonk, Gilberto Claudio. Starting the year with a bang , Cercle Francois inflated and sold one hundred balloons at Homecoming, walked off with honorable mention for its realistic dis- play, supervised by Stan Bittinger. The group followed the French tradition in celebrating the holiday season, singing French carols and celebrating the fete des rois , over which Craig Cameron reigned as king. A ploy was given in the spring and a French banquet culminated the year ' s activities. Dorothy Garver was president. Bob Honey and Richard Shonk successive vice presidents, Kathleen Rar- ick and Guenevere Strycker, the secre- taries, Craig Cameron, the treasurer. BUSINESS CLUB FIRST ROW: Phyllis Neher, Doris Wall. SECOND ROW: James Fenstermaker, Bill Boyer. THIRD ROW: Phil Fawley, Keith Miller, Leon Dolby. The business with which the Business Club concerned itself was, logically enough, to further interest in business. Early in the year Bill Boyer was named president of the club, with the titles of sec- retary and treasurer awarded to Phil Faw- ley and Clarence Mark respectively. Bob Haney and Leon Dolby, as program chair- men for the first two terms, were respon- sible for a variety of programs, including outside speakers, films, panel discussions. One of the social highlights for this year ' s club was the Christmas party held at Leon Dolby ' s near-by home. Page eighty FROSH PUBLISH BARKS, ACORN THE BARKS Assuming that a freshman is no worse than his BARK (BARK meaning fresh scandal sheet) it seems appropriate to mention these winter- term BARKS. Dana Hartong headed one staff, abetted by Swihart, Shultz, Porter, Norman, Peterson, Sherburn and Harmon, rocked cam- pus with indictments. Graydon Snyder edited the rival LITTLE BARK, bossed Kayser, Ander- son, Robison, Jordan, Early, Bechtel, Teeter, Kramer, Barnhizer, Walton, scorned other cam- pus publications. n ABOVE. FIRST ROW: G.

Asso- ciate editors were Barbara Townsend, themes and poetry; Dale Blough, student activities; Joan Landes, features; Alice Mae Priser, fresh- man pasts; Cora Childs, profs; and Gladys Doerschuk, humor. Veva Crumrine and Carolyn Cripe were typists, while LaDean Dick and Carolyn Cripe provided the artistic element. Page eighty-one OAK LEAVES Shirley Younker, edi- tor; Warren Garner, business manager. Stan Bittinger, circu- lation manager; Ar- lean Ott, news and proof editor; Dorothy Earl, feature writer. Bill Pettit, Carole Shultz, reporters; Phil Werking, Virginia Royer, reporters and proofreaders. Taking her position as editor serious- ly, Shirley Younker decided four pages weren ' t enough for Manchester ' s offi- cial weekly, added two more. Business manager Warren Garner complained of too few ads, complained of too many ads, complained. Stanley Bittinger, as circulation manager, with considerable wear and tear on his bicycle, conscien- tiously saw that the 1200 papers reached the ir destination each week. Dividing her time between filling the position of news and proof editor and playing her drum was Arlean Shorty Ott. Handling the spot of sports editor was Dick Miller. Lucky enough to have by-lines were columnists Ray Sideline Reboundmg Miller, Betty Tatertown Talk Sheets and Dorothy Under the Oaks Earl. Delving into the four cor- ners of the campus to cover beats and assignments were the fifteen reporters, aspiring journalists. Proofreader was Virginia Royer. The entire staff boasted of its scoops, pointed with pride to the office door newly decorated this year, complained about the difficulty of get- ting out of self-same door during mail rush, worried about such things as get- ting the paper out on time after vaca- tion, but yet had a grand time.

Page eighty-two 1948 AUROR Students walking past the library never suspected that turmoil raged within the basement, for there the AU- RORA staff huddled behind its closed door and secretive drapes struggling to get this year ' s AURORA out per sched- ule. Knee-deep in rubber cement and rejected copy, Editor Don Durnbaugh tore his hair, wrung his hands, pleaded with staff members, wished he were a freshman again. Copy Editors Mary Ellen Mow and Kathy Rarick produced copy spasmodically, with apparent un- concern about deadlines. Dave Ard and Nell Phillips, handling the art, usually worked when called upon. Gilbert Weldy, responsible for sports copy, was entirely dependable. Photography Edi- tor Carl Kime wondered why he had ever accepted his position, flunked his fall term classes. Denny Rohrer was se- cured to help him. Class Editors Mary Emma Miller, Virginia Royer and Caryl Rundquist and Secretary Mary Ellen Sparling were kept busy. Heading the business staff, Manager Ed Butter- baugh appeared efficient, thought about the coeds, promised to clear his desk — some other time. John Miller and Jim Overholt, advertising managers, and Ruth Mary Halladay and Merlin ShuU, circulation managers, were gen- erally dependable. We have done our best!

Page eighty-three FTP ATHLETICS Page eighty-five FOOTBALL Walton eludes Indiana Central ' s Bob McBride The coaching duties were divided this year, and last year ' s assistant football coach, Harold S. Swanson, was assigned to lead the 1947 Spartans. Coach Swanson assumed his duties in the spring practice and introduced the T formation to a Manchester team for the first time. When fall football time rolled around, Coach Swanson was greeted by some ninety eager candidates, among them 55 frosh. There was a large group of holdovers from last year, as only three men graduated from the team. Coach Swanson, the team, and the followers were optimistic for a much improved team and a successful season. However, as the season rolled by (or should we say over), the Spartans found that their opposition was loaded as well. MANCHESTER 0, ANDERSON Their first surprise came early when the Anderson Ravens, playing the first football game in the history of their school, held the Manchester aggregation to a scoreless tie. The result was a disappointment, true, but was not so disheartening, since the Spartans had threatened often and played superior ball in every department.

MANCHESTER 19, EARLHAM 6 This first setback, however, did cause the team to assume a little more serious attitude and take inventory of their ov rn strength in light of the forthcoming opposition. Consequently, against Earlham the Black and Gold went all out and played a quality of ball which later proved to be their best of the season. They also showed their ability to come back, as Josh Brown in the opening minutes made the Manchester boys sit up and take notice with a forty yard T.D. scamper for Earlham. Final score, 19 to 6. MANCHESTER 12, INDIANA CENTRAL 14 The team was at home for the first time against Indiana Central ' s Grey- hounds. Confident after their first impressive win, the Spartans didn ' t take I.e. seriously until they were two touchdowns behind. Again they retaliated after being on the short end of a score to score two second half touchdowns against the conference champs-to-be. Points-after-touchdown proved decisive in this game and Indiana Central took home a victory, 14-12. Page eighty-seven ' mtmi b V ;-- A. V nv. - JC ' i fear!

COACH SWANSON Coach Harold Swanson took over as head football coach this year after having served as assistant in 1946-47. He immediately commanded the respect of the squad with his superior knowledge of the T formation. Coach Swanson had a lot of green material, but he went to work on the squad, soon had a smooth-working T machine. Since the T was so new to many of the team, we feel that our coach did a superior job, and we expect great things of our teams in the future. ELLIS LEHMAN, CAPTAIN Captain Ellis Blackie Lehman rounded out a full four years of foot- ball activity for Manchester this year. He exerted his steadying influence and leadership at the quarterback position for the Spartans. Page cic htij-clght MANCHESTER G, HANOVER 14 On Homecoming Day, Hanover brought its highly regarded passing duo, Peterson to Klein, to Spartanland. The confident Panthers found the Spartans alert and aggressive and not at all impressed by Hanover ' s press notices. They had to go all out to win 14-6. Again the Swansonmen allowed the opposition to score first and couldn ' t find the do or die to capture the lead. Johnny Krieg climaxed the one sustained M.C. drive by slashing off tackle for the lone Manchester score. MANCHESTER 13, CANTERBURY 6 On October 25, the boys travelled to Danville to meet the winless Canterbury team. On the hot, dry day and hard field the Spartans were listless and only by the strength of a couple staunch goal line stands did they ward off an inspired Canterbury team before the Homecoming fans at Danville. This was the Black and Gold ' s second and last win. MANCHESTER 0, BALL STATE 19 At home again the Spartans awaited the visit of the undefeated Ball State Cardinals. With the last year ' s humiliation fresh in many minds the boys were pointing for this one and counting on an upset. The Spartans, always the perfect hosts, however, naturally let the company win. The Cardinals were almost all they were reported to be and ran through and passed over the Spartans at will. There were flashes of football brilliance by the Black and Gold, but the Ball Staters proved to have too much of everything. So the downstate target for the Spartans ' popguns rode home high and mighty, victorious 19-0. Regardless of the Ball Jar Boys ' bigger school, the Spartans still consider them our greatest rival and will be aiming to rack up a victory in the near future. We hope. COACHES ABBS, KAMMERER SWANSON The student managers who ably aided Coaches Kammerer and Swan- son throughout the football, basket- ball, and baseball seasons were: Russ Leazenby, Marion Knisley, and Dean Lehman. STUDENT MANAGERS Page eighty-nine 9 Howard Johnston Verlin Jackson Phil Enyeart Wendell Beck John Howard Earl Erbe Wendell Maupin Dewey More Herb Wertman MANCHESTER 0, FRANKLIN 6 At Franklin the M.C. gridders again found themselves winning everything but the ball game. On a cold and fumbly day the boys gained ground con- sistently only to bog down when in the shadow of the enemy goal posts. The Spartans ' best scoring opportunity (among many) came when a pass to Deacon Johnston had put the ball on the Franklin six yard line. Four plays later the ball rested on the ten, possibly proving that Franklin wasn ' t quite the soft touch they had appeared to be. MANCHESTER 0, OTTERBEIN 33 The less said about the trip to Ohio, the better. Otterbein of Westerville, Ohio, closed the Spartans ' season with a decisive 33-0 victory. The game was played in a sea of mud, but the Otters were in their element evidently, as they passed successfully for several of their touchdowns. The Swansonmen started strong, but after the initial score, several injuries, and four intercepted passes their spirit was pretty well broken. The real highlight of the game (to us) was the tremendous punt gotten away by John Krieg. The terrific boot covered 90 yards. Page ninety-two In the first active year of the Hoosier College Conference, we can be proud of the players from the Spartan squad who received special recognition for their performance this season. At the season ' s close, Amzie Truck Miller was named as a first team All-Conference guard. Considering that this year was his first real year of intercollegiate competition it is a singular honor indeed. Also named in the vote by the conference ' s coaches were three M.C. gridders, placed on the second All-Conference team. They were John Krieg (back), Verlin Jackson (tackle), and Tex Weldy (end). Johnny Krieg was selected by his team mates as the most outstanding and most valuable member on the squad this year. Johnny can best be remembered for his hard tackling, deceptive open field running, and his terrific kicking. Verlin Jackson, our beefy right tackle, was also named on the second team of the Little State conference. This being a larger conference including larger schools, proves that Verly was in there smashing a good share of the time. Not to be forgotten are our graduating seniors. First, of course, is Captain Ellis Blackie Lehman, plus scat back Brenton Otto Graham and Verlin Jackson.

They were Phyllis Bechtel, Jo Hershberger, and Leota Penning. Joe Callahan served as a cheerleader during the fall term. Otto totes that pigskinl Page mnety-txvo Krieg skirts right end against Hanover. Johnston scores with a sensational shot on Rose Poly. The boys in the Black and Gold were not quite able to bring home a fifty per cent season this year, but they did play spots of brilliant basketball. In this on and off season, the boys seemed to find the away-from-home games a particular jinx. Of their seven wins, only two were taken on the road. The team was more successful before the home crowd (who, incidently, gave very good support this yea r) where they won five out of eight gomes. Coach Kammerer made many changes in the varsity roster as the season progressed. With an abundance of talent, the starting five was never set, and different boys carried the load in each game. By using his most experienced men, Beck and Weaver, as a nucleus. Coach Kammerer produced flashes of excellence that threw scares into many highly rated teams. The outstanding performances of the season came against Western Michigan, Anderson (twice), and Ball State. Against this more rugged opposition the Spartans proved their mettle and showed an ability to compete with the best. Only once this season, at Ball State, were the Spartans humiliated. That black mark was definitely eradicated, however, at the second meeting of the two teams when the keyed-up Spartans deflated the Cardinals in an overtime thriller.

COACH KAMMERER Coach Phil Kammerer com- pleted his third year as head basketball coach and athletic director here at Manchester this year, his biggest problem, cut- ting his talented squad to size. Even though the season could not be called successful with 7 wins and 11 losses, Coach Kammerer maintained the squad morale and was always in there fighting with the boys. BRENTON GRAHAM Brenton Otto Graham, spark-plug of the team, was elected honorary cap- tain by his teammates this year. A graduating senior, Otto is finishing his fourth year as the most spirited and energetic member of the Spartan varsity.

For the second straight year, Wendell Beck led the Spartans in the scoring department. He improved on his 261 points of last year and finished the season with 271 counters. This total made Beck 15th high scorer in the state. However, he played in only 18 games, so his game average of 15.1 was the 6th best in Indiana. Manchester ' s steadiest and most dependable player this year was Jim Weaver, who played a heads-up floor game while contributing 138 points to the Spartan cause. His total was second only to Beck. The remainder of the scoring was very well balanced with the next four players scoring in the nineties. Johnston hit 96, Windmiller netted 91, Spencer and dinger both counted 90. John Kreig, Otto Graham, and Dean Whitehead supplied plenty of fire to support these stalwarts. Don Hostetler, our push-shot specialist, was slow in developing, but in late season he proved a valuable member of the starting five. Coach Kommerer brought several players from the B squad during the season. Outstanding among these was John Fruth, who won a starting berth with his scrappy defensive play and rebound work. Manchester ' s record of seven wins and eleven losses gave them a fifth place standing in the new Hoosier College Conference.

As has been customary, the basketball boys not quite good enough for the varsity squad were given positions on second teams. This year a B squad and a freshman team made up the Manchester version of the feeder system. These boys are groomed for immediate action on the varsity and several were tapped for varsity play this year. Those moving up to the first team this year were John Fruth, Don Martz, and Corky Doran. Both teams this year enjoyed very successful seasons. In their Thursday night contests and varsity preliminaries they competed with independent outfits and B teams from other schools. The B team, made up largely of upperclassmen, was coached by Harry Kelley. In their ten games they were defeated only twice, once by a Blufftcn independent team and once by the Manchester freshmen. The Frosh, coached by Bill Abbs, were a scrappy outfit and had a season ' s record of nine wins and six losses. On several occasions they traveled with the varsity to play preliminaries.

Surprisingly, there were more aspirants for the baseball squad last spring than for either of the other major sports. Approximately one hundred men turned out at Coach Kammerer ' s call. The candidates were organized into intramural squads which played daily games while the coaching staff surveyed the material. What they saw was rather heartening, and it turned out to be a major task to pick a varsity team from the many outstanding players. The final roster proved to be an aggregation of sure fielders and hearty hitters. The Spartans won their first six games before meeting defeat at the hands of the conference ' s baseball school, Indiana Central, winding up their season with a healthy seven wins to three losses record. Probably the best showing of the season for the Black and Gold was on May Day in a double header with Anderson. Before a large crowd of May Day fans, the Spartans slugged their way to a double victory, swamping the Ravens, 11 to 4 and 10 to 2. The standout performance of the day was turned in by first baseman, Vern Babe Hoffman, who poled two homers his first two trips to the plate. One of the shoulder high pitches sailed into the corn field and the other rode over the bleachers onto the football field. The squad ' s most consistent hitter was left fielder, Al Shultz, who hit around .400. The team ' s most dependable pitchers were fire-baller Don Hostetler, steady Dean Ford, cool George Bock, Pedro Seda, Bob Wysong, and left- handers Dick Shoemaker and Warren Garner.

Page one hundred one TENNIS Dean Whitehead, Lehman, Bob Bergstrand, Harold Bhckenstaff UuT PiCTURED Booge Weldy, Bud Being a minor sport, tennis was not given the attention accorded to the major team games. How- ever, the 1947 team had the mo st successful season of any of Manchester ' s teams. The racquetmen brought to Manchester a perfect season as they won easily from three different oppo- nents in six matches. In the home and home series with Anderson, Huntington, and Taylor, the top two men lost only one match during the entire season. Bob Bergstrand, sophomore number one man, lost only to Huntington ' s number one man, and Booge Weldy was undefeated. Playing in the rest of the meets in the third, fourth, and fifth positions were Eldon Bud Lehman, Harold Blickenstaff, and Dean Whitehead. The boys were handicapped by lack of equipment and they missed the services of a coach. However, they held regular practices and directed their own activities. Bud Lehman was designated captain. Bergstrand in action. Page one hmnlred two CROSS COUNTRY Paced by the long-striding Dick Sellers, the Spar- tain hill and dalers enjoyed a very successful season in the fall track sport. They defeated Anderson 24-31, Indiana Central 26-29, and were nosed out at Earl- ham and Canterbury by one point margins. Captain Dick Sellers ran first in each of these dual meets. Other front runners were Bill Bohs who ran second or third and Wilbur Yohn who ran sixth or seventh in the dual meets. In the Hoosier College Conference meet Dick Sel- lers was nosed out of his front spot the only time during the entire season. In the field of seven teams in the H.C.C. meet, the Spartans finished fourth with 87 points. Bill Bohs ran fourth and Wilbur Yohn eighteenth. Sellers ran his best race of the year at Indiana University over a four mile course and led the field to take first place in the Little State meet. This per- formance, probably the best turned in by any indi- vidual Spartan this year, was noteworthy due to the competition with runners from Ball State, Butler, and DePauw. He is the first Spartan ever to win this annual meet. Bill Bohs placed eleventh and Wilbur Yohn twenty-third. They were not given a team rating as only four Spartans participated.

MEN ' S INTRAMURALS The Pirates, softball champs. The Eagles, gridiron victors. A well-attended intramural game. A hectic bit of intramural action. Competition was keen in the men ' s intramural program this year as scores of sports enthusiasts paired off in softball, touch football, basketball, tennis, horseshoes, and volleyball. The program, under the direction of Coach Swanson and Ellis Lehman, began in the early fall when eight teams entered the softball competition. Emerging victorious were the Pirates, captained by Dick Hosteller. Soon after the softball season, intramural players were hard at each other in the touch football league. Many of the games were finished in the dark and even rain, but the hardy athletes carried on undaunted. The Eagles were victors in touch football after a play off with the Rockets. The Eagles were captained by Mark Weaver. In another of the fall minor sports Gene Smith and Charles Voorheis finished in that order on top of the horseshoes playoffs. With the coming of basketball time, some two hundred men organized twenty teams to compete in the great Indiana sport. Every week for three months league battles were fought. They were usually games involving cracked skulls and low scores, and a referee ' s life wasn ' t worth a nickel. Two teams came through undefeated in their respective leagues, the S-Birds, led by Jerry Brubaker, and the House of Hippy, headed by Leo Crabbs. Playoffs were conducted by a single elimination tournament involving the top four teams in each league. After a week of torrid play with every game close, the House of Hippy emerged unscathed. They downed the Ramblers in the finals, 39 to 35. The spring program continued with volleyball, tennis, and handball. Page one hundred four WOMEN ' S INTRAMURALS While the men compete in intercollegiate activity, M.C. coeds find their athletic enjoyment in intramural competition. This year the Women ' s Athletic Association sponsored a varied program of sports and games that held the interest of a large group of girls. Included in their program were archery, tennis, Softball, badminton, volleyball, and basketball. The highest interest centered about the basketball league which was organ- ized for competition between seven teams. The teams were tagged with these unique names: Brown Threshers, captained by Iraleen Stoffer; Comets, Sarah Alice Shafer; Mighty Mites, Colleen Duff; Black Widows, Louise Fox; White Streaks, Ruth liilbert; Scared Crows, Jean West; and the Blue In-de-goes, Fern Pegg. In the round robin tourney the Scared Crows topped the league with four wins and two ties. Climaxing the basketball season was the game between two all-star teams which were elected from the teams in the league. A Black team was made up of Louise Fox, Frances Castleman, Dottie Deak, Colleen Duff, Sarah Alice Shafer, Marilyn Sellers, Dorothy Garver, and Pat Alger. The White team consisted of Louise Holl, Iris Neff, Jo Hershberger, Sue Robinson, Jean West, Carolyn Holl, Glenna Stoner, and Iraleen Stoffer. In a very well played game which was witnessed by some 75 spectators the Blacks won out in a close one. The W.A.A. also sponsored several outings for sports for which we have no facilities here at Manchester. They traveled to Warsaw for a morning of bowling and to Huntington for a swim in the Y.M.C.A. ' s indoor pool. A play day for high school girls of this area was also in the year ' s program. Frances Castleman finished the year with the highest number of participation points.

Showing a constant devotion to duty and never shirking the tremendous responsibility which is his as the chief college executive, he has worked tirelessly, often far into the night. His intelligent planning and capable administration are recognized by students and faculty both. Page one hitiulred eight ABOVE: Pres. Schwalm dictating to his sec- retary, Mrs. Graybill.

DEAN HOLL As we pass him in the halls or on the campus, we recognize that Dean Roll ' s genial greeting signifies a true friend. Yet he is more than a friend; he also fills the role of an understanding counselor to the innumerable students who seek his advice each day. With a genuine interest in the success and welfare of each individual student, he is ready to cope with any problem, no matter how trivial. We like this man ' s drollness and friendliness; we appreciate his good sense and helpfulness. Page one hundred ten ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS Occupying the nuclear position of the college are the administrative officers. Not to be underestimated because of their number, they have a multitude of duties to perform. They formulate the policies of the college and strive toward upholding its traditional high standards and ideas. They regulate student activities and are vitally concerned with the welfare and progress of the college. This year they were faced with the problem of limiting the enrollment and providing adequate facilities for taking care of the large number of students. Comprising this group are Alice A. Doner, dean of women; Russell Bollinger, dean of students; A. R. Eikenberry, assistant business manager; Howard Book, director of teacher education; Edward Kintner, secretary of the faculty; Dale Strickler, business manager; Maxine Heath Domer, registrar; and Cole S.

Page one hundred eleven A vital part of any college is a well-trained faculty. Undaunted by the 850 assorted students who appeared on campus this year defying anyone to educate them , this year ' s faculty accepted the challenge handed them. As instructors, they sought to direct each student ' s thinking and to share a part of their own vast supply of knowledge. They have given some faltering student a boost, inspiring him to greater heights. They maintained dignity in the classroom, at the same time adding the necessary spice of occasional humor. Yet their work did not stop in the classroom. They performed many other diversified tasks, such as counseling, serving on various committees, heading student activities, lecturing, writing books and furthering their own education. Each Tuesday morning found the faculty in session, interested in making college a worthwhile experience and the classroom a delight and challenge rather than a struggle.

We had seen the enrollment at its lowest point in our first years, and now we watched it make the jump from 400 to 800. Veterans joined us and the class became a heterogeneous group of varied personalities. But did we make our mark! AURORA . . . Out by May and Here to Stay, and it was!

Those majors had to be straightened out and requirements fulfilled. We attended speeches we had never thought of attending, because we realized that we had little time. Campus leadership was definitely ours with the student prexy and head of the U drawn from the ranks of the senior class. We were busy seniors . . . ditch-day to Chicago in the fall . . . senior recitals . . . student teaching . . . job-seeking . . . more committees . . . class gift . . . senior recognition day . . . and finally May 31 . . . commencement . . . the final step.

Yes, we ' ve had three years at Manchester — three busy, joyous, fruitful years. We are writing a chapter in our lives never to be forgotten. During our years in college we are becoming adults, the men and women of tomorrow. At the end of our junior year we can rejoice in many deep friendships, a more satisfying faith, three years of toil and fun behind, and a challenging future ahead. Somehow we feel able to meet that future. Manchester has given us a good general backlog of information, a training for specialized work, a consciousness of current problems, better adjusted personalities, and that feeling of belonging so necessary to all of us. As juniors we have done the conventional things, but in a bigger and better way. The pretty May Queen Susan Riggleman and her Maid of Honor Vivian Blanchard were members of our class. The Queen ' s attendants from the junior class were Anne Winger and Frances Castleman. We planned and gave the traditional Junior-Senior Reception on May 21 at the Fort Wayne Women ' s Club. Ed Butterbaugh, the capable chairman, was assisted by Dean Lehman and Walter Bilbrey, transportation committee, and Tex Weldy and Dorothy Garver, invitations committee. Of course the junior flag came forth on Senior Ditch Day, and at 5:00 p.m. was mournfully lowered to the accompaniment of Taps . Our class party was held jointly with the sopho- mores. President Bob Bergstrand placed Bill Gnagey in charge with Hugh Fisher and Bill Clarke ably assisting. RAY WIELAND Treasurer BOB BERGSTRAND ED BUTTERBAUGH President Vice President ANNE WINGER Secretary Page one lumdvcd thirty-six CLASS OF 1949 eJ f - ■ ' The AURORA staff faboring. The juniors battle the sophs. Of course, we cannot forget the biggest junior project — the 1948 AURORA, edited by Don Durnbaugh with Ed Butterbaugh as business manager. This year ' s AURORA, which, of course, had to be the best yet, gave many a junior (particularly the editor) headaches and momentary mental relapses. We can ' t begin to mention all the activities in which juniors participated. Some juniors were club presidents, some represented the college on deputation trips, some performed musically as soloists, or members of musical organiza- tions. We had several talented debaters, and many husky juniors on the varsity squads. It was two of our number who entered the State Oratorical Contest for Manchester College. Gilbert Weldy won first place in the Men ' s Division with Sick Behind Bars and Elsie Rossmanith won fourth in the Women ' s Division with America ' s Forgotten Children . Our class has done well the usual tasks of juniors. We are pleased with the past, but anxious to become seniors and tackle new problems ahead. We are confident that we will be able to finish our last year and face up to a challenging future with the necessary background and requisite faith. Page one hundred thirty-seven JUNIORS . . .

Upperclassmen no longer peer at us (as lowly rhinies) through their shell rims but come to us seeking advice and companionship. A few of our number have fallen by the wayside, but we still have quantity as well as quality! No one can say we have not contributed our share to the collection of big and small events that make up an enjoyable and worthwhile school year.

Without our talent, the school just couldn ' t click. Classes and profs have also claimed some of our time. We had passed through the maze of freshman requirements and were eager for advanced learning. Calculus, American poetry, zoology, keyboard harmony, intercolle- giate debate, nutrition . . . these are no longer mystifying, but everyday language . . . understandable and challenging. Page one hundred forty-eight CLASS OF 1950 Though we are glad for the passage of time that, together with those many cups of coffee brewed at midnight, has made us what we are, we will always look back to the myriad of happy experiences which made the days pass with such speed that we hardly noticed them fly. It all started with the arrival of the freshmen . . . our first days as upperclassmen . . . then the Camp Mack outing when our favorite lost the boat race only because of a broken oar, sophomore AURORA pictures, caroling, The Messiah , Christmas parties and gifts for needy children, VACATION, open houses with much scrubbing and polishing, lyceum programs, sophomore tests, rushing to the post office for mail that always came two days late . . . and just plain talk ... all kept us from being bookworms and broadened our education. Suddenly, we realize that our sophomore year is drawing to a close. Unnerved, we cast about for tangible evidence that it was ever real. With our college experiences has come a greater seriousness of purpose and also determination to do our best to develop and realize our goals. We can look back over the past year and say that we are proud to have been sophomores of Manchester College. Page one hwidred forty-nine SOPHOMORES...REVELING IN NEW SUPERIORITY..

However, during our Freshman Days of orientation we became better acquainted with the campus ' surroundings. The first day after receiving a hearty welcome, we attended our first meeting in the chapel, with which we were to become very familiar as the school year progressed. We made a tour of the buildings including the outstanding features of the college, eating a picnic lunch to end the day. In those first few days we took aptitude, personality and I. Q. tests galore; we met with the deans; had conferences with our counselors. Everybody, faculty, students, even the uppermost upper- classmen, offered us their friendly and usually helpful advice. As we adjusted ourselves to college life we were introduced to various types of campus work and campus activities. Freshmen completing last minute work on options and term papers, cramming for exams, devoting time and effort to lab work, were typical sights throughout the year. We made ourselves known, participating in the numerous and varied campus activities, religious . . . musical . . . dramatic . . . scientific. Our many talents in these fields were displayed in church leadership, dramatic productions, participation in choral and instrumental trios, quartets and combined groups, in school publi- cations, in scientific organizations. We upheld the traditions of the college by taking an active part in the fall Camp Mack outing where we came through with top honors in t he competitive sports and by going all out for Breakaway, May Day, formal banquets and student programs. WESLEY SIMMONS HERB ERBAUGH LYNN BOLLINGER CAROLE SHULTZ Secretary-Treasurer President Vice President Secretary-Treasurer f Page one hundred sixty-two CLASS OF 1951 For the Valentine banquet in February, a lovely freshman girl, Phyllis Bechtel, was chosen as queen for the evening and reigned over the program in the evening. For the outstanding May Day celebration, our class was proudly represented in the attractive court of the May Queen by Ruth Layman and Barbara Helser. About midway through the first term when we were better acquainted, we elected as class officers, Herb Erbaugh, president; Lynn Bollinger, vice president; Carole Shultz and Wesley Simmons as co-secretaries and treasurers. Ruth Layman and Elmer Bowers capably represented our class on the Student Council. We were ably guided under the direction of Prof. Conkling, our class counselor. In continuing to uphold our traditions as the freshman class, we published the newsy, enjoyable Big and Little Barks and the very successful Acorn. We also came through with a terrific frosh party, which proved to be one of the best mixers of the year. This took place on April second in the gym. It was really a hard-times party with a variety and talent show, square dancing, refreshments, plenty of fun for all. By rendering our faithful support to the football, basketball and spring athletic teams, and to the regulations and principles of the College, we have pledged our loyalty to Manchester. And, as the up and coming class of ' 51, we intend to continue to do so in our college years to come. Page one hundred sixty-three FRESHMEN... FRESHMEN DAZE... THE NEW LOOK.

To Ed, for bearing the financial worries brought on by the editor ' s eccentric brainstorms; to Dave, for the layout and those wonderful etchings; to Kathy and Mary Ellen, for their sparkling copy; to Carl and Denny, for triumphing over the thousand photography headaches; to Tex, for the sports angle; to Caryl, Ginny, and Mary Emma, for their dependable editing of the classes; to Nell, for the many hours spent mounting photos; to Mary Ellen, for decipher- ing and typing the editor ' s hieroglyphics; to Merlin and Ruth Mary, for their superb circulation work, and to Bud and Jim, for digging up all the ads in spite of prevailing difficulties, go a heartfelt Thanks from the editor ' s desk. Credit is also due to the representatives of the publication firms who aided us greatly through the planning and production stages. These include Fred Noer of the Indianapolis Engraving Co., Ed Kase of the S. K. Smith Co., Tom McConnell of Benton Review Publishing Co. Inc., and Howard Uhrig, our photographer. Bouquets go to the top winners of the photography contest, comprised of Dorvin Shank, with photos on pages 35, 37; and Dick Steiner, on pages 29, 36. Finally, to Ben Honey, Joe Ebbinghouse and the staff of the 1949 AURORA go the keys to the office, the troubles and triumphs, and our very best wishes for a successful book.

In the pages of this book are recorded some of the activities of the year. For you the dreams of yesterday have become the realities of today. I hope they are even better than you had dared hope. The Manchester to Vifhich you came was long in the making. It is the repository of the ideals and purposes of heroic souls who have gone before. The distilled quintessence of their life blood is crystallized in the traditions and the conventions of the institution. These aims and ideals of our predecessors and of the present faculty can only have significance for us as we make them ours and as we consciously shape our lives by them. If truth, beauty and goodness become the ends we seek for ourselves as we leave college halls, the college will have had meaning for us. The times are confused, life is difficult. May I wish for every one of you success in finding the narrow gate and the straight way that lead to abundant life. Sincerely, t Page two hundred fourteen
