V ALLEN COUNTY PUBLIC JJBMffl 3 1833017695716 GENEALOGY 977.202 N84CO, 1953 v Vl ins anchester Early on the morning of September 5, 1952 the chimes pealed out the beginning of life at Manchester for some 250 freshmen. This new generation was soon joined by the upperclassmen returning to the campus. Then, for the 64th time at Manchester, students of varied races, countries and creeds, and from all parts of the United States, launched out on an- other year in their preparation for life. Training for particular vocations, learning more about people and the world about them, they lived and worked together in days filled with activity. They gathered in the chapel and worshiped, led by top- notch speakers and world leaders. Here at Manchester, they found intellectual stimulation, spiritual experience, moral uplifting, and personal enrichment. Apart from the more serious pursuits, the students ' days were filled with extra- curriculars . . . clubs, eating, informal get-togethers, outings, or various sports activities . . . but regardless of the activ- ities that filled the many hours, their days were centered around preparation for life . . . for . . .

In the dorm, living with a warm friendly group, students found comfort, good neighbors and activities ranging from bull-sessions to all- dorm parties. Of all the people with whom the collegians lived probably none were more close and in- timate than their roommates. Roommates shar- ed their clothes and books, likes and dislikes, trials and triumphs. Friendships formed in this manner often lasted a lifetime. four For the frosh the memory of those first few days at Ma nchester must remain as a misty whirl of scheduled tests, lectures and planned social events, climaxed by the faculty reception. The especially pre- pared Freshmen Days program did ease the strain, however, and the excitement of entering upon the college experience, along with the wealth of new friends met, compensated for the anxiety. During the trials of registration even the upperclassmen got caught in the snarl of forms and paperwork. Lines sometimes longer than those at the Oaks, and questions comparable to some of the roughest tests, live as vivid memories of the beginning of each term and made the beginning of classes almost a relief. five In the classrooms were centered the students ' scholastic endeavors. Discussions, lectures, dem- onstrations, movies . . . every media of trans- ferring information and knowledge was util- ized by a hard-working faculty to inculcate into the minds of the students the matter to be assimilated. Not all work was done in the classrooms . . . the labs with their opportunity for direct application by students of their knowledge formed a large part of the learning process. gosnell- — standard oil scholarship winner Beyond the confines of the classroom even more sweat and effort were expended over the books. It may have been in the library with its book-lined walls and pervading silence, or in the very informal out-of-doors, but studying must go on . . . and did. ■ :  ■ I As a Christian college Man- chester centers its activities and efforts around Christian ideals and practices. Each Wednesday throughout the year all the stu- dents and faculty meet in the chapel to worship together, and, on Monday and Friday, enjoy educational and enter- taining programs. Across the chapel stage this year walked some of the world ' s most inter- esting people, some of the most famous of our contemporaries. Bob Richards, Elton Trueblood, Dr. Ira Moomaw, Andrew Cor- dier are only a few of the many who were in chapel. Some of the most significant experiences in their lives were in the chapel services which the students performed them- selves. Here was a center of stu- dent life as they sought and began it at Manchester. Each Sunday was a respite, a day of rest and worship, for here in church was the real center of religious life. The College Church School and both the church and Sunday School facilities of the local churches, served the students ' worship needs. The family of Manchester comes from many denominational backgrounds, with wide and varied views. But at MC, each follows the way of his choosing, each was encour- aged to build life about the church and take religious ex- periences into daily activities. In the hurry and bustle of the academic life, the opportunities for the scholars to get to- gether three times a day for their repast was a welcomed and cherished institution. For some it was the family-style table in the dining hall, for others, the casual cafeteria-style of the Oaks, or perhaps a local restaurant. But eating, and the fellowship that went with it, occupied a large and pleasant part of their time. Sometimes recreation took the students away from the books and campus routine. The annual outing at Camp Mack was all-school in fact as well as name. Its well-planned athletic activities attracted the majority of the community in inter-class competitions, as the juniors took the trophy. Again, an outing may have been a small group, perhaps in the college woods around a campfire, where the students caught in the moment of the stillness of the night and the fire ' s bright glow, the deep comradeship and sensitivity they held for others. In outdoor gatherings students often shar- ed in many of the more active sports, a rough tug-of-war or a fast game of volleyball, enjoying the feeling of work- ing with the others around them as a team, or competing in friendly friction. Yet, there were many other diversions that occupied their time, ping-pong, for exam- ple, even some monopoly, or a brainracking game of chess. Recreation was a recognized, utilized and fully enjoyed part of college happenings. twelve Not all their pursuit of knowledge or recrea- tion can be placed into carefully divided areas. For in their activities program they put much of their time and energy. Here they found ex- pression for their creative abilities . . . some- times on the stage of a Tri Alpha set, perhaps in the sharp give and take of a fast debate, in the numerous musical activities on campus and in any of a dozen related fields. When people get together they are sure to have many different interests . . . the results at Manchester may be seen, for example, in more than fifty different student organiza- tions on campus. programs require practice . . . preparing for our town . . . mc vs. ball state thirteen Of .ill the factors at Manchester which influ- enced the students and the lives for which they were preparing, there were none so signi- ficant as that of the people with whom they came in contact . . . people from all walks of life, different countries, religions, denomina- tions, creeds, dispositions, personalities and interests. Here they learned to live with others, respect them, and gain their esteem. At Man- chester they formed friendships that will ex- pand across lifetimes, states, countries, and indeed, the very world. foreign students The students took their work seriously. They enjoyed sometimes a serious atmosphere in their social lives, when they could put on their best clothes, their best selves, and go forth to meet their fellows in a more sophisticated mode. Yet, they generally found their social affairs things of informality, fun, warmth and com- radeship. The gay multi-colored balloons of a costume party might look dull against the rich- ness of the friendship of those underneath . . . at MC girl met boy in the deepest and most beautiful sense . . . they enjoyed Breakaway , when the girls got a chance to do some chasing in the open. Here as they worked together, they played together, and enjoyed each other ' s com- pany. breakaway hallowe ' en party 10:00 p There came, as there comes to each student generation, the inevitable end of the be- ginning. Year followed year ... as term followed term and one day ' s studies an- other ' s . . . until the time allotted for the seniors to learn what Manchester has to of- fer ran out. Then, with pride and ability they faced the life for which they ' d been preparing. But as do all days and all good things, terms come to their ends. The Students organized and re- arranged what they ' d learned in their various courses . . . then on the judgment day attempted to convince their respective profes- sors that they had learned the subject matter put before them. Many new things graced them in their few years at Manchester. Idea upon idea had been presented; ideals, goals, aspirations and pos- sibilities had been put before them. Some they retained: others they missed. They came to Man- chester in the belief and faith that here they could start that foundation which would lead them on the highest road . . . their lessons over, they sought new horizons. To achieve a well-rounded personality, students need to strengthen scholastic development with active participation in campus life — College Catalog community government Keith Kinney, Sue Weaver, Julia King, Gene Fahs, Ralph McFadden, Paul Burkholder, Myron Kennedy, Professor Rieman, Julian Schrock, Gene Plunkett, Kent Moore, Bill Goshert, Don Lloyd, Lois Fike, Professor Merritt, Lloyd Smith, Dr. Geisert, Wanda Foust, Mr. Yeatter, Phyllis Heeter, Mrs. Schutz, Paul Hoffman, Nellie Jarboe, Marilyn Buffenmyer, Dr. Bollinger We ' re charting the course for life at Man- chester. The Community Government has been very active this year in maintaining the campus spirit of one for all and all for one . Their routine duties of coordinating activities of clubs, boosting and supporting campus organizations, sponsoring social activities such as the All- School Work Day and the Camp Mack Outing, and helping to solve financial problems, furnish positive proof that their goal has been realized. Using the general democratic-group method mixed with parliamentary procedure, the Council maintained its reputation of accom- plishing what it set out to do in the weekly meetings of the group. president keith kinney . . . the right word the right time . . . competent . . . business-like . tactful . . . stimulating . . . clever . . . active twenty This year, the Council also tackled honorariums, determined a policy for fund-raising, con- structed a new, modern office, and initiated a CC voting trophy. Serving as a spark plug for reminding students, faculty and staff mem- bers of their civic duties, the Community Gov- ernment succeeded in stimulating a record eighty-two per cent of the college community to cast their ballots for their choice of CC mem- bers. The Community Government representatives devote much of their energy, time, and talent to help make life at Manchester smooth, orderly, and enjoyable. Created in 1949 to replace the outmoded stu- dent council, the newly-chartered Community Government was set up to serve as an integrat- ing body in the campus community, to pro- vide valuable experience for future responsibil- ities of school, church, and community, and to share in making significant decisions regard- ing campus policy. Representatives of faculty, administration, staff, and students came together in the spirit of cooperation and a sense of oneness, to further the goals and solve the problems of the campus community to the best advantage of everyone concerned. Since that time, they have played a valuable part in setting up standards of con- duct, supervising intercollegiate activities, guid- ing student clubs, and maintaining the general welfare of all MC students, faculty, and staff. the council in session twenty-one • alpha psi omega It is with life as with a play ... it matters not how long the action is spun out, but how good the acting is. Membership in the Iota Psi Cast of Alpha Psi Omega, a national honorary dramatics frater- nity, is the reward for those who have attained a high standard of work in dramatics on the campus. Heading this year ' s cast were Ron Walton and Mary Ruth Stong with Miss Alice Jeanette Wintzer and Miss Orrel Little as faculty mem- bers. Entrance is gained in this honorary through a week ' s informal initiation during which all would-be neophytes of the cast perform various menial tasks for their superiors . A twenty-four hour impersonation of some fa- mous character is the final test. Formal initiation takes place at the joint Tri-Alpha - Alpha Psi Omega banquet held every spring. • tka ' To develop in ourselves and encourage in others excellence in responsible speech is the mark toward which we are striving. An honorary fraternity which requires two years of outstanding speech experience and a high scholastic record, TKA claims only three students on the campus who spoke their way into membership. These three members, along with the faculty members, put Keith Kinney, Cloyd Dye, and Bill Clarke through soap box speeches and artificial rainfall as the traditional step into the chapter. To stimulate better speaking in others, the three student members sponsored an intramural debate tournament which was open to the entire student body. A Homecoming Luncheon was held for former debaters and TKA members at which President Jack Bormuth, Vice-President Dick Weick, and Secretary Pat Thomas for- mally initiated Dr. Wayne Geisert into the fraternity. Also, the student members attended the Tau Kappa Alpha Regional Conference at Purdue and the National Conference at Denver.

This youngest honorary fraternity on our campus is ambitiously striving to further inter- est in mathematics at Manchester College, to stud) ' the contributions of that science to civil- ization, and to develop and spread an apprecia- tion for the power and beauty of math. The rigors of writing an essay concerned with some aspect of mathematics didn ' t deter the new associate members who are: Joan Nord, Jim Slabaugh, Don Shafer, Lloyd Johnston, David Newhouser, Max Douglas, Roger Smith and Wade Hall. The} ' were initiated at a very impressive ceremony during the club ' s banquet in January. Officers Forst Dunnuck, John Mack, Keith Davis, and Wendell Plum directed the progress of these future contributors to the world of re- search. • inn pi ki gm a The acceleration of an object is in direct pro- portion to the force producing it. This simple principle of physics is an apt one to apply to any club . . . and especially to a physics club. Enthusiasm of the members for the subject and a capable cabinet composed of Tom Dillman, Bob Black, Keith Davis, and Dr. Morris are the forces which keep this club in a forward motion. Dr. R. H. Miller with his talk on The Ethics of a Scientist and Dr. H. R. Weimer ' s talk on How Physics and Chemistry Meet helped to consolidate the club member ' s ideas of a scien- tist ' s role in the scheme of things.

We ' re striving to be good citizens of the world. The International Relations Club was founded by one of Man- chester ' s most famous alumni and former professors, Dr. An- drew Cordier, now UN Secretary — General Trygve Lie ' s Ad- ministrative Secretary. The members have done a great deal to live up to his expectations. They cooperated in collecting five hundred pounds of clothing for Korean Relief and sponsored a scholarship fund for a worthy student who is studying inter- national relations. They have backed the showing of several movies and sold concessions at Homecoming in order to finance this virtuous project. Discussions, interviews, debates, and lectures provided the food for thought at the regular meetings of this breath of the United Nations on our campus. All of these projects and activities promoted interest and support of the UN on our campus and thus in its small way, the IRC has taken important steps in furthering international understanding between our campus community and citizens in all corners of the world. twenty-six • debate A tournament of speakers is a challenge to clear thinking; so is the contest of life. Quick thinking, hard work, and the will to win are the char- acteristics evidenced by this group. This year the national de- bate topic was: Resolved: That the Congress of the United States should enact a compulsory fair employment practices law. MC debaters travelled to Earlham, Purdue, Western Mich- igan, Northwestern, Ball State, DePauw and the National TKA Conference at Denver. • tri phi We ' re in the club to learn, practice and enjoy forensic activit- ies. Gavels, podiums and microphones are familiar equipment to these Tri Phi members who are living up to this by giving ora- tions, extemporaneous speeches, anecdotes and talking over the radio in their weekly sessions.

Although FTAers are still on the receiving end, they are striving, through their organization, to learn to be the best of givers. This learning process takes place at the regular every other Monday night meetings held in the social room and is helped along by participation in various all-school activities. Outstanding among these activities sponsored by the Future Teachers is the high school FTA conference held on MC ' s campus every fall. This year approximately 250 high school members of the national organization from the surrounding communities attended the general assembly and the discus- sion groups led by MC ' s own members. The club ' s home-made ice cream sold at a social in the early fall and cocoa and doughnuts served the night before term exams helped make FTA a popular group on campus. Officers Carol Honeyman, Peggy Clouse, Lois Ogan, Ann Beauchamp, Margaret Hilbert, Jane Keller, and John Mack, along with various other members, attended the state FTA conference in Indianapolis and the spring workshop at Taylor University. Dr. N. N.

In order to promote more interest in the business world and in the study of commercial subjects, the Business Club of Manchester Col- lege came into being. President Dorothy Cripe, assisted by the other officers . . . Jim Mishler, Helen Lozier and Arthur Gilbert . . . did their best to hold that interest. Prominent speakers who have been successful in the business world appeared before the club, appropriate movies were shown, and field trips were taken to various commercial concerns. A personnel man speaking on vocations and placements gave these future secretaries, executives, and accountants a boost in becoming better assets to the giant, work-a-day world of business.

A cabinet composed of Glenn Miller, Wayne Hershberger, Mary Weick, and Ron Spire, with the guidance of Professor Eikenberry, planned programs which included question panels, lectures, and individual reports based on helpful subjects. A Christmas party in the sponsor ' s home and a trip to the Logansport mental hospital provided enjoyable and interesting variations.

In searching for a name for the chemistry club when it was first organized, it was decided that the Greek name for the early chemists, al kimia , would be appropriate. Even though the early al kimia would be quite lost if they were to hear Dr. Morris discuss Fission vs. Fusion , they would nevertheless enjoy many of the programs given. Quiz programs on chemical definitions and formulas, student-conducted meetings explaining methods of determining molecular weight, a talk about unusual animals . . . these are examples of what this year ' s meetings were about. A field trip to the Anaconda Wire Plant at Marion took the club off campus. Al-Kimia . . . along with the other science clubs on the campus, participated in an all-day science meeting and open house held on February 21.

In order to develop appreciation, interest, and knowledge in all phases of home economics , the agenda for the bi-weekly meetings has ranged from a panel discussion on different fields of work in home economics and a tour of Peabody Home to see how an institution is run, to an exhibition and talk on an antique glass collection. In addition, Col- hecon always has some special projects. Traditional at Homecoming is the Aunt Jemima Breakfast for home ec grads, on May Day the reception for the Queen and her court, and in January the annual Winter Banquet for members and dates.

The Math Club blossomed out with the very important sounding title of Chi Psi this year. This organization is concerned with promoting campus interest in math, showing that entertaining things, as well as useful projects can be done with numbers, creating fellowship among the avid followers of Euclid. To keep pace with the new name, the per- manent officers . . . Lloyd Johnston and Paul Burkett . . . along with the rotating presidents . . .

Anyone who has ever hit a soft ball or steered a volleyball over the net knows that participation in sports provides fun and friendship for all the players. The Woman ' s Athletic Association has done much to promote sportsmanship and to further athletic interest among women. A picnic at Warvel Park and parties to cele- brate Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine ' s Day, in addition to ping-pong, Softball, basketball and volleyball leagues are ac- tivities in which each girl has had a chance to take part. Many of the girls re- member falling in the lake at the Annual Fall Outing at Lake Webster and their frenzied attempts to block the mighty shots of the faculty women in their basketball games. Games with Huntington College and with Ball State also gave the female drib- blers an opportunity to shine on the hard- wood. Our college women were given a chance to sharpen their leadership ability at the College Play Day given for high school girls from surrounding towns. An All-Star Game stimulated the better playing which imported speakers had demonstrated to them. A Spring Awards Banquet was the climax of the year ' s activities for this organi- zation of women ball players, tumblers and acrobats. They were led by Wanda Foust, Muriel Mosher, Barbara Bevington, Joan Overmyer, and Helen Bollinger. forty -one octo rolo Provide us with the peal of the Skater ' s Waltz and a big wooden floor and we ' ll be happy. This is the philosophy of many of the MC students. The large attendance roll of Octo Rolo, their frequent trips to the Columbia City skating rink, and the numerous All-School Skates are living evidence. The members work- ed together willingly in order to create a great- er interest in skating on an all-campus level, to furnish instruction for beginners, and to master new and advanced skate steps. This lively group, under the direction of Laverne Wheeler, is divided into two groups — the Basic and Advanced — so that both novices and the more experienced skaters can accomplish the art of rolling along together . Nellie Jarboe, Arlene Coy, and Jean Childs led the Basic Sec- tion while Bob Kinzie, Madonna Fidler, and Arline Hawn kept the Advanced Section roll- ing smoothly. The Octo Rollerites have the privilege of doing something on campus that no one else can do. Their four wheels allow them to waltz, fox trot, and square dance. Acrobatics and playing hockey on skates make up the rest of their un- usual activities. They even became convicts for a night when they threw their All-School Prison Party and rewarded the exhausted skat- ers with bread and water. This and the other parties provided a chance for the entire campus to take part in the thrills and occasional spills that take place in the lives of those who are lured by the whir of the wheels.

It ' s this organization ' s duty to help you get the best use from MC ' s library. Whether you want last week ' s copy of Life magazine or help in finding the middle name of the 33 rd presi- dent, the staff aims to please. Quite often the head librarians, Miss Coblentz and Miss Hol- combe, are called upon to help in serving you. Among themselves the staff gets together for irregularly called meetings whenever they need to discuss details or procedures of work, and for social events to increase the unity and in- terest of the assistants. At Christmas they treat- ed themselves to an old-fashioned taffy pull in Elizabeth Hall. Leaders this year have been Vera Brower, presi- dent, Herb Domer, vice-president, and Carol Oliver, secretary-treasurer. Sociability contributes to a well-rounded per- sonality. Organized to provide a profitable way to spend an evening away from books, the Allemande Club is one of the youngest clubs on campus . . . only 2 years old. The Allemanders spend their time at the regular meetings learning the basic steps and just enjoying themselves. Several all-school parties sponsored by the club gave the whole school a chance to swing their part- ners and helped liven up the week end activ- ities for many students. The residents of Pea- body Home benefited from the members ' sociability when a demonstration was put on there. Bert Riley, Dick Tomkinson, Ron De- Rhodes, and Shirley Rike helped Miss Wiebe guide these square dancers.

A Click Clique member and his camera have a reputation for being at the right place at the right time. Be it a sports action shot, an attempt to catch a fellow student in an off moment, or a Kenopocomoco landscape to capture the beauties of the Hoosier springtime, the Click Clique member gets his picture. Working hard to improve their own techniques in taking and processing pictures, the mem- bers have held shooting sessions, camera shar- ing get-togethers, and numerous instructional periods in the art of developing pictures and working in the dark room. Lectures with slides and samples of portraits and color photography filled some of their other meetings. In the spring the thoughts of the Click Cliqu ' er turn- ed to the beauties of nature, so he and his fel- low members had a picnic and naturally, their cameras accompanied them. The entire campus benefits from the Click Clique Club. The photos taken of games, track races, May Day, the opera, the plays, and of other special events are largely done by these members. The Funny Fotos which show you how you ' d look if you were fifty pounds heavier or lighter, or how you correspond with the Empire State Building are some of the club handiwork, too. The camera carriers exhibition gave a chance for the community to eye with interest and admiration their work done through the school year. President Henry Eckenrode, Vice-President John Blocher, Secre- tary Marge Culkosky, and Treasurer Beverly Stutzman directed these activities. forty-five Iri alpha Life is a stage — so learn to play your part. In the Amateur Actors Club — Tri Alpha — those interested in dramatics play their part on Manchester ' s stage. Aiming to develop dra- matic talent and interest in drama and to give such talent and interest an opportunity for expression, Tri Alpha produces two big plays each school year. These are usually staged at Homecoming and on May Day. The productions of 1952 presented a challenge to the members in that they were two very different types of plays as far as staging is con- cerned. The set of Smilin ' Thru with its stuc- coed English cottage was quite the opposite of Our Town , with nothing but a stepladder and a couple of rose trellises; but, the produc- tions themselves proved that the members were entirely capable of meeting the situations. The sense of accomplishment when a show is a success and the realization that it is the result of the combined effort of all, gives Tri Al- phians a feeling of closeness and harmony. Meetings held twice a month in the club ' s own Green Room are planned to give help and de- velop further interest in all fields of dramatics. Some of this year ' s most helpful ones have been a make-up demonstration by Miss Wintzer, a dramatization of stage terms, and the playing of some outstanding dramatic recordings. The club ' s sociability spread out to include the whole school at the Hallowe ' en masquerade they spon- sored. The climax of the year ' s activities was the annual spring banquet. Director Wintzer and stage-hands Hilda Studebaker, Edna Steury, Mary Lou Stuckman, and Don Leiter organized the season ' s dramatic ventures.

Men ' s Quartet: August Lundquist, Ralph McFadden, Art Hunn, Ted Whitacre. String Quartet: Sue Weaver, Margaret Brooks, Ron Walton, Priscilla Kester. Music takes up our leisure time. Performing for high school assemblies, church groups, civic meetings, chapels and many other campus functions requires long hours of rehearsal and work. However, those in the quartets feel that it ' s time and effort well spent when working on all types of music together. Supervising the activities of the vocal quartets was Professor Clyde Holsinger, while Vernon Stinebaugh organized the string quartet. forty-seven a cappella scenes from the bartered brid With melodious harmony, we express men ' s thoughts as we find them in the masterpieces of unaccompanied art, both ancient and modern. As a select group of fifty voices, the choir spends many hours rehearsing in order to develop proper techniques of choral singing and to maintain a necessary group rapport, striving always for excellence in performance. Under the capable direc- tion of Professor Clyde Holsinger, they have endeavored to bring to their listeners the best in choral literature, both sacred and secular. Getting off to an early start, the organization trekked to Camp Mack for a week-end in September to rehearse and become bet- ter acquainted. This also prepared the group for its early concert appearances at the Regional Conference in October, and other nearby church performances. The next jaunt took them to Dayton, Ohio, and vicinity on a week-end in January. Climaxing the year ' s activities was the annual spring tour during Holy Week. During the extensive tour, the choir presented more than twenty concerts in Indiana and Ohio. torn scott, famed folk song singer goes over the creation with a ca ppella forty-eight In addition to fulfilling a heavy demand for off-campus con- certs, they managed to find time to participate in various campus activities. Some of these activities were the Messiah in December, the spring choral concert in April, the usual chapel appearances, and working hard on the opera, The Bar- tered Bride , which was presented in February. Sandwiched in between musical activities, the choir somehow won the Homecoming display contest, and held a spring banquet to reiminisce over the year ' s happenings. A Cappella ' s capable leaders for the year were Art Hunn, president, Jim Slabaugh, vice-president, Joanna Smith, secretary, and Bob Stoner, treasurer.

As one of the three choral groups on campus, this club offers the feminine members of Manchester College an opportunity to display their vocal talents in many ways during the year. Besides appearing in their annual chapel, church and com- munity concerts, they shared the responsibilities in the produc- tions of the Messiah , The Bartered Bride , and the spring choral concert. With Professor Holsinger directing, the glee club combined fun with music in perfecting both sacred and secular music. The songsters chose Anna Norman to direct the executive activities of the club, while Alma Morningstar, Dorothy Hummer and Marilyn Buffenmyer were selected to fill the other offices. fifty We sing our praises in voices loud and deep. Even though the men ' s glee club is few in number, they ' re strong in spirit and firm believers in the theory that singing creates friendships. With Thursday night rehearsals under the direction of Pro- fessor Clyde Holsinger, the club worked up a reportoire for their sacred and secular concerts. They also enjoyed shouldering their share of responsibility in the Messiah and the perform- ance of The Bartered Bride , as well as appearing in the spring choral concert.

As one of the largest groups on campus, the Choral Society gives everyone in the college community an opportunity to join with those in the A Cappella Choir, Women ' s Glee Club, and Men ' s Glee Club in preparation for the production of the inspiring oratorio. A unique feature of this year ' s production was that the soloists were either students or alumni of the college. Singing the solo parts were Virginia Smallwood Mart, soprano, of Wabash, Indiana; Martha Stinebaugh Yohe, contralto, of North Manchester, Indiana; Robert Stoner, tenor, of Anderson, In- diana; Ronald Walton, bass, of Elkhart, Indiana. Prof. Clyde Holsinger, director, Mrs. Genita Speicher, organist, the North Manchester Civic and Manchester College Symphony Orchestra, accompanists, the soloists, and the 200 voices of the choral group combined forces to climax the Christmas season with a thrilling presentation of the Messiah. Officers for the year were Stan Felton, Kay Moore and Phyllis Heeter. fifty-two Sweet music to ease the tensions of the everyday world is our specialty, and sweet music is string music to us. This musical organization offered a varied, yet interest- ing program of spring music to those musicians in the com- munity who play string instruments. Appearing in a new setting, in the auditorium of the Winger Memorial Arts Building, they presented their first concert of the year to a capacity audience. Sue Weaver appeared as violin soloist in this Winter Fantasy concert. In the annual spring festival concert, the group provided the evening ' s entertainment for the Mother ' s Day observance on campus. In keeping with the day, Miss Elizabeth Green, noted string clinician from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Michagan, was the guest conductor. Approximately 75 high school string players from Northern Indiana, and the A Cappella Choir assisted on the program.

This year, the annual Winter Concert was presented on January 18th, featuring Phyllis England as piano soloist. Other activities sponsored by the band included the annual High School Band Day, twilight, outdoor Spring Concert, and the annual concert tour between winter and spring terms.

The orchestra, which is unique, in that North Manchester is one of the smallest communities in the United States with a Symphony Orchestra, presents three annual concerts, besides providing the accompaniment for the Messiah . Last spring, the guest artist for the pops concert was Miss Mary Spauld- ing, solo harpist with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. This fall, the symphony opened its fourteenth season by featur- ing the violinist, Voldemars Rushevics, in their first concert of the year. Mr. Rushevics is concertmaster of the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra and professor of violin at Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo, Michigan. The annual youth concert was presented on February 22, with the high school musicians, selected as winners of the Kiwanis Talent show, appearing as soloists.

The student ' s religious life is guided and helped, given opportunity for meaningful expression in service and related areas. It is provided with motivation and stimulation to greater heights, and encouraged and lifted to a dynamic per- sonal faith and knowledge of the Almighty. Each student is an individual, but each one possesses the same basic potentialities for Chris- tian life and experience. Manchester makes pro- vision for a well-rounded growth and develop- ment in all major areas of religious experience. Representative of these areas of the program of religious life on campus are the three spheres of activity portrayed. Reflective thinking and meditation add fresh insights and impart poise and moral courage to the student. Study ren- ders the capacity for effective co-ordination of a balanced philosophy of life. New ideas are acquired, expanded and firmly grounded in the various aspects of the personality. The ex- change of ideas in group discussions promotes a warm fellowship, adds a healthy stimulation to the devotional life and encourages adjustment and contact with one ' s fellowmen. All these are blended together into an educational experience that in many ways begins the religious life here at Manchester. thought and expression cell bob richards korean clothing drive parson bob does it again One of the dominant notes of the religious life here on Manchester ' s campus as life begins and continues throughout the college experi- ence is action . . . expression. We strive to reach ever-higher goals, grow in our awareness and dedication to God, and serve and give vital manifestation of our Christianity in service and leadership. Many and varied are the student clubs and committees used for the realization and co-ordination of the religious life.

In this task we seek to understand Jesus and to follow Him. Each member having pledged himself to the purposes as stated on the membership cards benefited from the activities sponsored by the Association — anywhere from Religious Empha- sis Week with the internationally known preacher, Bob Richards, to weekly meditations. Special programs on Wednesday night were an important aspect of the MCA ' s work among the student body. Included in some of these programs were speakers T. Wayne Rieman, Dan West and Muriel Lester. An MCA reading room has come into being this year which contains all sorts of books, pamphlets and reading matter for use by students. An idea of the further scope of this organization can be obtained from exam- ining its committee work which includes Leadership Training, Service, Cells and Re- treats. The Community Chest Drive was carried out by this group as was the all-school caroling party and the welcoming and Sunday program of Freshman Days. A cabinet chosen by the college community met weekly to carry out the administrative functions of the Association and to bring under one head the efforts of the various sub-groups. Each member of the cabinet was also a member of one of the other MCA committees or cab- inets, thus co-ordinating all religious activities. Wayne Zunkel served as president, Al Deeter as vice-president, Julia King as secretary, and Joyce Snyder as treasurer. Rev. T. Wayne Rieman was the faculty advisor.

The activities for the year have ranged from special speakers, a fellowship breakfast, and a weiner roast, to programs featuring slides on Alaska and Europe, and a square dance. Henry Eshelman as president and Professor Merritt as faculty advisor worked with officers Harriet Newcomer, Kate Shirk, Laura Hawkins, Floyd Click, Laverne Kendall, Dick Tomkinson, Floramae Fisher, Bill Clarke, Pat Haynes, and Ann Beauchamp. Dr. Weimer was the church school leader and Rev. Manifold served as the pastor director. In order to promote the broader concerns of the church with more specific emphasis on the Church of the Brethren and to provide programs for college youth which allow fellowship with other students, the Church of the Brethren Youth Fellowship has held regular Sunday eve- ning meetings the past year. Some special events during the year have been the Salmonie outing, a series of programs on Brethren beliefs, a coun- ty sheriff as speaker, and the sending of forty people by bus to the BSCM Conference at Juniata. The cabinet worked with President Wilbur McFadden and Advisor Claude Wolfe in steering the group. Back Row: Prof Merritt, Laverne Kendall, Henxy Eshelman Dick Tomkinson, Floyd CI ck.

By sending out a variety of Teams to many different churches the committee was able to utilize the talent and the desire for service of the students in numerous ways through wor- ship programs, singing, preaching, acting and panel discussions. Waneta Showalter was chair- man of the committee. The new Winger Recital Hall was the scene of a weekly gathering of students every Sunday morning before church — the College Church School in session. With a varied program of Bible study, group consideration of the basic Christian doctrines, and the review of the life of Christ, the Church School contributes to the religious life of campus by conducting a Sunday School every Sabbath. Headed by President Paul Eiler and under the sponsorship of Miss Wiebe, the cabinet worked with Lois Fike as secretary-treasurer, Paula Shelter as worship chairman, Terry Clingenpeel as the MCA representative, and Clyde Fry and Carl Showalter as co-chairman of projects and publicity. seventy- five Athletics are to make the intellect, feelings, and will, more vigorous, sane, supple, and resourceful — G.

The squad placed seventh in the nation defensively. Lynn Blocher was the top scorer with 26 points, while Burr Wcddle and Jim Minear followed closely with 24 and 18 points respectively. Bill Goshert was elected captain and then given the most valu- able player award from his teammates. He also placed twice on the All-Conference team, as a defensive halfback and as an offensive end. Burr Weddle was elected on the offensive unit at the fullback post, while guard Brooke Doran, was placed on the defensive team. Brooke Doran Bill Goshert seventy -nine MC FRANKLIN 2 The season opened on September 20 when the Franklin Grizzlies turned back the traveling Spartans on what has been the most talked about play of the year. The freak tally came in the second quarter when Burr Weddle unknowingly stepped out of the end zone while kicking a punt, thus scoring a safety for Franklin. In a game that saw the air filled with 21 MC passes, brief displays of brilliance in the running at- tack, and a superb Spartan defense, those small two points became the only overshadowing gloom of the day. MC EARLHAM 13 The Quakers who invaded the Kenapocomoco field literally soared to a victory over the Spartans as they tallied on two passes while the Holfordmen were putting together several good drives on the ground which piled up the yardage, but no score. A fumble or a damaging penalty always seem- ed to stop the Spartans at a crucial time. As usual the de- fensive team sparkled, stopping several Earlham drives with goal line stands. Jack Jarrett Marty Brumbaugh Tom Miller Paul Geiger Bob Hoover eighty Jim Dawson Max Updike Jim Minear Donn Burrows Lowell Studebaker MC 21 ROSE POLY The Spartans exploded for their first win of the season zs Jim Minear broke loose for 12 points, one of the touchdowns being a thrilling 61 yard gallop, and end Bill Goshert snared a 1 5 yard pass from Donn Burrows for six more. Lowell Studebaker topped off the day by kicking three per- fect extra points. As per usual the defensivemen sparkled in a display of brilliant work. MC 38 TAYLOR 6 A large Homecoming crowd saw the Spartans develop the wi nning spark of the previous week into a roaring bonfire as the Holfordmen blazed a trail of six touchdowns. Lynn Blocher smashed over for two of the tallies and Burrows sneaked over for one. Paul Geiger and Dwight Henn each scored on long pass plays while Dale Miller playing alert de- fensive ball picked up a blocked kick and scooted over from the five yard stripe. Studebaker added the final two points on a placement and on a run around right end. The MC defense could not be outdone by the offense and held the Trojan forces to a net total of six yards on the ground. eighty-one y 4 MC 7 HANOVER 20 It was all Manchester for three quarters after Weddle bulled over from the four yard line in the first two minutes of play and Studebaker added the extra point. Then in the fourth quarter the Hilltoppers pleased their home crowd with two fast touchdown passes to topple the Spartans. It is possible that the second quarter cost the Spartans the game when their attack stalled on the Hanover eight, then again on the two and a final time on the five. MC fans rejoiced only in the defensive work of the team which gave up only one first down in the first half. MC 6 ANDERSON 14 The Spartan air defense again cost another victory as the Ravens passed to two TD ' s although their ground game was stymied. Minear was the big gun for the Home forces as he rolled up 1 1 1 yards and the lone score on an 11 yard run to climax a Manchester 92 yard drive. Christ Christon, Dwight Henn, Carl Adams, Lynn Blocher eighty-two Bob Sollenberger, Tom Heery, Chuck Shoop, George White MC 32 BLUFFTON 19 In the most wide-open game of the year, the Spartans poured on the steam to outbest the Beavers in nearly perfect night football weather. Blocher opened the MC scoring in the second canto on a 32 yard jaunt; he scored again in the third period. Weddle smashed over for two TD ' s and Rondeau went 21 yards on a reverse for the final tally. A Thompson pass and a Studebaker placement added the extra points. MC 14 INDIANA CENTRAL 13 The last game of the season was won by the narrowest of mar- gins when defensive guard Brooke Doran blocked an extra point on IC ' s first score. This coupled with the 5 yard score of Weddle, a Thompson to Goshert pass from 10 yard stripe, and extra points by Blocher and Studebaker gave the Spar- tans an even four-four season. eighty-three wolfie In the second year as a coach on the Manchester cage scene, Claude Wolfe gave the fans the style of basketball that is typical in the Hoosier State. Claude learned the game while attend- ing Manchester several years ago. He then graduated from Bethany Biblical Seminary in Chicago before going to Ecuador to open a boy ' s club for the Brethren Service work there. After five years service on the mission field, he is now working on his Master ' s degree at Indiana University.

With eight of the previous year ' s first ten men returning, Coach Wolfe put a team on the court that Manchester could not help being proud of. Only after splitting victories with Taylor, the champs, did the local team settle for second place. The Spartans also played against such topnotch teams as University of Dayton, Indiana State, Illinois Normal and Hope College. The Spartans were led by high scorers, Jake Hoffman and Don Hyde. Senior Bill Gos- hert, the 1951-52 honorary cap- tain, was another outstanding player. the spartans capitalize on a free throw Back Row: Tom Miller, Paul Weaver, Don Hyde, Lowell Barnhart, Kent Moore, Paul Hoffman Front Row: Danny Anglin, Jon Gallipo, Leon Goodmiller, Bill Goshert, Donnie Butts eighty-five Hyde, Hoffman MC ... _ 76 MC _ 6 5 MC - .. 90 MC ... _ 97 MC ... - 82 MC ... - 93 MC _ 76 MC ... -107 MC ... _ 89 MC 82 Wooster .. .60 Dayton .. .105 Ball State .. - 87 Indiana Central ... _ 116 Hanover 90 Hope College 97 Illinois Normal .. 78 Earlham 87 Anderson 74 Taylor .. . 79 pappy goshert lays it up Paced by a terrific shooting percentage of 47.2, the Manchester Spartans opened their cage sea- son with a 76-60 victory over the highly touted Scots from Wooster College. The squad was especially sharp and operated smoothly for an opening night performance. Don Hyde led the scoring with 23 points, while Jake Hoffman scored 16. With that initial win under their belt, the Spar- tans traveled to Southern Ohio to give many of the alumni a view of Hoosier basketball. The towering Flyers, who hold a national repu- tation for their basketball abilities, held the local team to only 65 points. Manchester got a boost when the team was praised highly by the Dayton Press for their spunk and aggressiveness. It was a hard driving, fast breaking Manchester quintet that dumped the previously unbeaten Ball State outfit into the losing side of the ledger. Trailing at half-time by eight points, the Spar- tans came back fast as Hyde scored 12 straight points. The Wolfemen kept their lead and won the game. The first conference encounter brought one of the highest scoring tussles ever to be witnessed on the MC campus. The Indiana Central Grey- hounds rolled over the local men by a 116-97 score, when they poured in 41 points in the fourth quarter. Kent Moore paced the Spartans with 24 points as they fought the uphill losing battle. The Spartan hoopsters dropped their second straight conference game to best the Hanover quintet on the latter ' s hardwood by a score of 92-80. Only Don Hyde was able to solve the mystery of the Hanover baskets as he rang up a total of 22 points to lead the Spartan scoring. eighty -six To keep in shape during the holidays, the Spartans traveled to Hope College where they dropped their third straight game in a tight 97-93 contest. Danny Anglin was the top per- former of the Michigan adventure as he snapped the nets with 22 points, while frosh, Don Butts chucked in 19. On January third, the Spartans continued their vacation jaunt on a trip to Illinois Normal. Manchester jumped off to a big first quarter lead but Coach Wolfe ' s courtsters could not hold the margin and dropped their fourth straight game. Free throws were a costly measure to the MC men as they lost the 78-76 encounter. Manchester broke their four-game losing streak at the expense of the Earlham Quakers as they rolled up a total of 107 points. The score was the highest ever recorded by a Manchester team. The Spartan scoring was well distributed as five men broke into the double column behind Hyde, who led the black and gold with 24 points. Paced by 26 and 24 point efforts by Jumping Jake Hoffman and Don Hyde, the Manchester squad brought home a well-earned 89 to 74 victory from Anderson. The win was the second league victory for the Spartans and their second in a row. In a story book finish, the Spartans upset the league-leading Taylor five 82-79 in a thrill- ing climax during a late fourth quarter rally. With three minutes left in the ball game and trailing by 12 points the Spartans poured in the counters until Don Butts iced the contest with two free throws in the closing seconds. Hyde and Hoffman garnered 25 counters apiece, in the contest that was played before a near capacity crowd. sly hyde hits again as hanover bit the dust MC 67 MC _. 87 MC __ 89 MC 71 MC 75 MC 82 MC 76 MC 64 MC _ 6 8 MC __ 102 Franklin 53 Hanover 64 Anderson 77 Indiana Central 76 Franklin 91 Earlham 73 Indiana State 101 Taylor 71 Ball State . 73 Huntington 56 Kent Moore Dan Anglin eighty-seven Paul Weaver Don. Lowell Barnhart It was Spartan sophomores Kent Moore and Danny Anglin, scoring 15 points each, who led the hardwooders to a 67-5 3 victory over the Franklin Grizzlers. This game boosted the cagers over the .500 mark in their season ' s play. Five straight conference victories and undisputed possession of second place in conference standings were the rewards for the Spartan hardwooders as they pounded the Hanover five 87-64 on the home floor. Hoffman, Anglin, Weaver, and Moore hit for 5 5 of the total points. Playing before a capacity crowd that came out to see the pole-vaulting parson, Bob Richards, go over the bar at four- teen feet plus, the Manchester cagers were not to be overshad- owed by the Olympic champion. The Spartans beat the Ander- son Ravens by an 89 to 77 count and tacked up their sixth straight conference win. Indiana Central ' s underrated cagers sent the high flying Spar- tan five down to its third conference defeat and broke the six game winning streak which had been in existence since the Christmas holidays. The best the Manchester quintet could do was to tie the game up several times in the late stages before they succumbed to a 76-71 defeat. It was a redhot Franklin basketball team that invaded the Manchester gym and handed the Spartans their next conference defeat to the tune of 91-75. The Spartans were simply unable to really get going as the Grizzlies jumped into an early lead and were never headed. For the Spartans it was an especially bitter defeat as it seemingly eliminated them from the title race. eighty-eight Manchester ' s cagers bounced back from a two-game losing streak to hand the Earlham Quakers an 82-73 loss on the lat- ter ' s home court. The game was one of the closest of the year as the two teams matched points throughout the first three periods. Hyde, back in the lineup after being down with the flu, led the Spartan scoring with 1 1 counters. Manchester in going to Terre Haute to play the sharpshooting, fast-breaking Indiana State Sycamores, ran up against a team that boasted a 14-6 record and second place in the Indiana Con- ference. The Sycamores, using their superior height advantage, romped to a 101 to 76 victory over the Spartan five. Any championship ambitions of the Spartan cagers were snuffed out of the picture when the Trojans of Taylor University set the Wolfemen down to a 71-64 defeat. Manchester jumped off to an early lead but could not hold the margin throughout the game. Manchester outscored the Trojans from the field but the 33 charity throws that Taylor dropped through the hoops were enough to stymie the Spartan bid for the conference title. Ball State avenged their earlier defeat that came at the hands of the Spartans, when th; local team traveled to the Muncie college. In a game that was close right down to the final gun, Ball State finally gained the edge in the 73-68 battle. Hyde was again high-point man for the losing Spartans with 19 points. The Manchester Spartans closed out the 1952-5 3 season on a pleasing note as they romped to an easy 102-63 victory over Huntington College. Coach Wolfe flooded the game contin- ually with reserves who tried to keep up the pace that was being set by the fine play of the two seniors, Don Hyde and Bill Goshert. This final victory gave the cagers a .500 season as they won ten games while losing the same number. Tom Miller Leon Goodmiller Jon Gallipo eighty-nine V squad While the eyes of most of the Manchester campus were focused on the Varsity Bas- ketball team, Holford ' s little-publicized but rugged B squad moved steadily along the victory road to an outstanding 10-3 record. Led by Lantz, Robbins, Gregory, and Uline, the squad showed good form in beating such teams as Anderson, Taylor, Indiana Central, Bethany Biblical Seminary, and several good independent teams. The losses came at the hands of Ball State, which gave the squad two setbacks, and Heckman ' s Bindery, an independent team. The Holfordmen improved all season and the campus fans are looking forward to seeing many of the squad in varsity com- petition next year. b team action was rough squad posted a 10-3 record and rugged as the Jerry Carpenter, Roy Stull, Lavon Mann, Dick Harshbarger, John Barnhizer, Jim F ridley, Jim Robbins, Bud Lantz, Wayne Yeager, Gene Downing, Ed Gregory, Dieter Schennepat, Ben Smith, Dick Uline ninety • tennis With the title of defending conference champs hanging over their heads, Coach Bill Sayer ' s 1952 tennis team did a superb job in their season play when they ended with a 3-4 record. Considering the ordeal of playing on all foreign courts because of the new construction on campus, the racketmen are to be commended for their fine play. The team, led by Bob Vore and Al Fike, swept their two opening matches by down- ing Indiana Tech and Taylor, 9-0 and 6-1. Earlham handed the Spartans their first de- feat in a whitewash, 7-0 meet. Anderson and Hanover, seeking to avenge last year ' s rompings, blasted the netmen 5-2 and 7-0. Manchester fought back into the win column by virtue of their besting Indiana Central, 4-3. Vore was the only victor in the last set of matches of the season when Ball State handed MC a 7-1 loss. bernie butt returns a serve on the new tennis court Back Row: Coach Bill Sayers, Joe Frederick, George Miller, Al Fike Front Row: Jim Slabaugh, Shunil K.

It was six straight losses for the Spartan nine before Coach Wolfe ' s men could get into the win column. After dropping games to Indiana Central, Taylor, Earlham, Anderson, Hanover, and Franklin, the Spartans bounced back with four straight wins. Jim Dawson pitched the Spartans to their first victory over Indiana Tech and then Carl Adams followed with a shutout game on May Day against the same team. The Spartans then went to Taylor to avenge their earlier loss and made it four in a row by conquering Tri-State on a grand slam home run by Buddy Butts in the ninth inning. Anderson stopped the win streak and thus the season ended as it started, on a losing note. Members of the baseball team not shown in the picture are Glen Bryant, Brooke Doran, Don Huffman, and Paul Weaver. ninety-two track A fall sport that is fast attaining sports recog- nition is the gruelling cross country encoun- ters. The Spartan harriers won themselves two victories by defeating Anderson and Taylor while dropping their only match to Earlham by a close 29-26 score. The team placed sixth in the conference and Don Shafer ran sixth in the Little State competition. The spring cinder season opened in a quadran- gular meet at Ball State where the thinlies grabbed 34 and one-half points and second place. The Spartans then hit the dual meet path and ran over Taylor and Indiana Central., In the Rose Relays, eight men were good enough to bring in five places for the Spartans. In initi- ating the home season, Rose Poly fell in a close meet 68-63. Ball State on May Day, however, pounded the home forces as they breezed through a 114-17 encounter. An Earlham loss ended the dual season, and the tracksters finished their running in the Little State Meet and in the Hoosier Conference. The thinlies finished fifth in the conference.

These are the boys who are just as regular at practices as the players and who are a benefit to the team, but seldom are mentioned with the team of which they are so great a part. This year ' s managers deserve credit for their fine job.

This year ' s quartet, all new- comers to the Manchester lung pro- fession, did a splendid job in keep- ing the student body behind the win- ning ways of the Spartan teams. Chuck Armstrong, Maggie Bowden, Sabra Bowyer, and Donna Winger, all did a top-notch job during the year. ninety -four • intramural It was Claire Stine and his Spartans who came out champs ahead of the other six teams in the 1952 softball league. A better finish could not have been developed as the winner was not known until the final game. With three teams going into the last week of play with only one loss apiece, Red ' s All Stars dropped their last game and the Spartans edged the Barons (9-8) to clinch the title. The eight-team football league saw the Varsity M Club romp to their second straight unde- feated and championship season. The M boys rolled out 192 points to their opponent ' s 19. The only squeak of the season was their opener, a 19-13 win over the Four-F ' s. December — winter — and 14 teams got the in- tramural basketball season under way in a sched- ule that was to find many a thrilling ball game in the two leagues. With the usual last minute upsets and hard fought contests, the closeness of the races is shown by the fact that four teams came to the wire undefeated, and the league titles were decided on one night. It was Red ' s All Stars who won the eight o ' clock league while the Six Convicts pulled through in the late encounters.

Schwalm when he first entered its doors as a student. Since then he has spent many years of his life here. After graduating from Manchester in the Class of 1913, he went on with graduate work in history at the Uni- versity of Chicago, receiving his M.A. in 1916 and his Ph.D. in 1926. He also studied at both Bethany Biblical Seminary and Columbia Uni- versity. president sehwalm ninety-eight prexy pays a call to the new building professor halladay and presi- dent schwalm discuss the at- tributes of the new building Beginning his teaching career as a high school teacher, Dr. Schwalm returned to Manchester in 1913 as professor of history. Four years later he added the duties of dean to his pro- fessorship and continued in this capacity until 1927, when he then began his fourteen years of service as president of McPherson College. Upon the resignation of president Otho Win- ger, who had led Manchester for thirty years, Dr. Schwalm returned to his Alma Mater as President in 1941. The President is well-known for his genuine concern about the general welfare of the college community, working out administra- tive, fiscal, and developmental policies. He con- tinually strives to maintain the traditional high standards set up by Manchester College and also keep up with the progress in the world today. A great part of his time is spent in travel- ing for donations. Nationally known in the education and reli- gious fields for his many contributions of time and knowledge, President Schwalm serves on two national committees of the North Cen- tral Association of Higher Education and a commission of the Association of American Colleges. An ordained minister, Dr. Schwalm has been very active in directing the activities of the Church of the Brethren. He is a member of the General Brotherhood Board of the Church of the Brethren, serves as chairman of the Foreign Missions Committee, and was chosen to be moderator of the Church ' s National Con- ference for 1953. Another of the highlights of this year was the publication of the President ' s book, the biog- raphy of Otho Winger in which he has shown the power, influence, and character of this great man who played such a large part in the history of Manchester. This year as always, President Schwalm demon- strated his constant devotion to duty. He has maintained a reputation for accomplishing his responsibitities and working tirelessly, and has helped the college in innumerable ways through his intelligent planning and capable adminis- tration. ninety-nine Recognized by both the students and the faculty for his accomplishments on campus is Dean Earl S. Garver. He is known to most of us because of his clever humor and his confident manner. In addition, he is recognized dean garver for his shortness, his liveliness, and his tennis skill. Dean Garver is also a Manchester man, graduating in the Class of 1933 with honors. After receiving his Ph.D. from Yale University, he held numerous teaching positions in other colleges and a university before com- ing to Manchester to head the de- partment of economics. For the past three years, he has served in the capacity of dean of the college. He has won much respect and honor not only for what he has done on campus here, but also for his many accomplishments off campus. Dean Garver is recognized as an analyst of economics and of international affairs, but he is best known to the college community for his marvelous understanding, his counseling, and his sound judgment. one hundred Dr. Holl, Mr. Yeatter, Dean Bollinger, Miss Doner, President Schwalm, Dr. Morris, Eikenberry, Dean Garver Profes • administrative council As an advisory cabinet to the president, the ad- ministrative council formulates the policies of the college and strives to uphold the tradi- tional high standards and ideals. It determines the college policy, sets tuition rates, and gives administrative direction to the college. Regu- lating student activities and being vitally con- cerned with the welfare and progress of the college are also some of its duties. The adminis- trative council may be referred to as having the nuclear position of the whole college com- munity because of its great importance. • trustees To plan, to organize, and to direct the activities which would be for the best interest of the college . . . these are the duties of the trustees of Manchester College. They are also concerned with general improvement on the campus, the expansion of the curriculum in specific fields, landscaping and construction.

Having seen many students begin their college life here, I am con- vinced that a progressive church-affiliated college offers a great challenge to both teachers and students for Christian serv- ice , states Miss Doner upon retiring from the faculty of Manchester College. Miss Doner came to Manchester in 192 5 as an associate professor of education. In addi- tion to holding that position, through the years she has taught sociology and been the director of student teaching. While serving as Dean of Women for the past twenty-six years, Miss Doner has seen the number of girls increase steadily. This fall she expressed her appreciation to her girls by donating two water coolers to Oakwood Hall. She has always taken an active part in community activities and at present is a charter member of the Busi- ness and Professional Woman ' s Club of North Manchester. In tribute to the retiring dean, President Schwalm states, Miss Doner has given twenty-eight years of loyal and effective service to Manchester College. She has been a strong teacher and an efficient dean. Miss Doner is a woman of clear convic- tion, of decisive character, and of great moral courage. As she leaves the college, she takes with her the respect of her fellow teachers and of thousands of women whose interests she has served. The college is deeply indebted to her. We wish her a very happy retirement. one hundred two faculty MAX ALLEN B.S. Mus., B.F.A., M.F.A. Associate Professor of Art, Head of the Department of Art ESTHER M.

Our four years are history now. Those four paradoxical years . . . long and yet so short, full of hard work and yet packed with hours of fun and play, laden with responsibilities and yet running over with plenty of carefree times, too . . . wonderful memo- rable years! It ' s been great being seniors this year. The joys of leadership, the frustrations of working out requirements, the delight of actually sneak- ing away for Ditch Day to Pokagon State Park for fellowship and indul- gence in winter sports, the pleasure of being the ' entertained ' at the Junior-Senior Reception, the mixed feelings over Commencement and the ending of school ... all of these things made an eventful closing year. Manchester has given us a wealth of interests, abilities, and expe- riences with which to face the days to come . . . the days when we will be outside these friendly, comfortable walls. This is a heritage we are proud to have, and will be proud to share. It has been wonderful! But our days at Manchester are over. And now we willingly look ahead and walk into the future to take our places in life beyond the halls of our beloved Alma Mater.

At first the road to seniority looked long and steep, but now the results of many hours of planning and hard work are coming into sight. Far from being paved with gold, this road has had splinters and thorns, rocks and grass, light places and shadows. Even though at times we have sat down to rest, still we are climbing with our eyes on the goal. To the fond memories of our carefree freshman and sophomore days we have added another year packed full of events and happenings . . . high honors at the Camp Mack outing . . . the loyalty trophy for high- est percentage of votes in CC election ... a fine Homecoming . . . outstanding football and basketball team . . . the long, cold, winter stretch . . . the best Junior-Senior Reception ever . . . May Day, with our own queen reigning . . . those last good-byes to the seniors . . . The years have been challenging and rewarding. We have had both failures and successes, but upon these we are growing and building our lives. And now, with eagerness and enthusiasm, we look forward to more and greater achievements to make our final year tops!

Last year the term upperclassmen signified prestige, dignity, and prudence, a desirable but unattainable goal. The evolution of time and space sud- denly brings us close to this unattainable goal for a first-hand look at this state of being called upperclassmen . Suddenly, the opportunity to succeed, to prepare, and to supply campus leadership is ours. College becomes ever more meaningful as we become more familiar with the ins and outs of campus life. No longer do we get in a dither over enrollment day with its endless matriculation cards and • sophomores lines of tottering students, or the horrifying realization that finals are only a week away. Tucked away in our mental files under the heading, Sophomore , are memories of the Camp Mack outing, our most un- usual class party . . . The Depreshun Seshun , the Valentine Ban- quet . . . and oh-so-many others, innumerable but unforgettable! The meeting of new responsibilities, the challenge of new thoughts have helped us to prepare for this opportunity that is ours . . . the opportunity to succeed, to prepare, and to supply campus lead.rslr ' p.

This was the first of our college days! And it proved to be a highlight of the year. Right away there was the welcome in the chapel and the unforgettable first time the singing of the Alma Mater brought a lump to our throats. After being suf- ficiently welcomed, we were shown around the campus, given loads of tests, entertained at several socials, introduced to members of the more interesting sex and given the best meals of the year in the dining hall. freshmen Memories of the year: our girls ' tug-o ' -war prowess at the outing; that first s-h-i-v-e-r-y dunking; the time the chem experiment fizzled; Hail to Thee accompanied by careening chairs; talks with Dean Bollinger about alienation, remedial reading, etc.; our Trojan horse at Homecoming; the sleepless, term-paper nights (and how many foot- notes do you have?); the first notice that an excessive amount of pandemonium was heard from one ' s abode; winning three auctions at lunch; the A above the line in communications; first nap in chapel; our own Valentine queen; the May Day float; and that last terrible decision whether to put it in the waste basket or take it home.

The entire book was built around this idea. In the first seventeen pages, we concentrated on the theme with pictures and words, showing just how life did begin at Manchester. Many people, activities, and phases of life were shown on those first pages. The people shown were like students in any small college. The activities depicted followed the usual pattern. But, nat- urally, we felt that Spartan students were especially capable, compatible and well-fitted to face the world ' s problems. A number of Manchester ' s alumni have done notable jobs in attacking those problems; such people as Andrew Cordier, Roy L. Plunkett (pictured on this page) and Roy Blough can be noted as outstanding examples. Thus, for many people life begins at Manchester College. The 1953 AURORA, with its many photographs and accounts of campus activities has endeavored to portray this theme. . . . the editor one hundred forty-two faculty and staff directory Allen, Max 103 Ashley, Esther M. 103 Baer, Dorothy 53, 56, 106 Begerow, Joan 106 Barnhart, Murl M. 103 Bollinger, R.
