To you, SAMMY BRAKE, we dedicate this 1958 Mabico. The few short years you have spent in the halls and classrooms of Manhattan Bible College shall be unforgettable years for your fellow-classmates, as undoubtedly they will be for you also. That something which lies deep within you, which has enabled you to overcome language barriers, fit into an entirely new society, and become victorious against terrific odds, is a quality which has captured the admiration of ail who know you. You continue to thrill us by your courageous plans for the future. Those plans which, if the Lord makes the way, will carry you back to your homeland, Syria, where you will be Christ's representative among people who, for the most part, do not know Him. Yes, Sammy, we are proud of you, and we rejoice in the assurance that, wherever your field of service shall be, the Lord has a good man. This page sponsored by: FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH Herrington, Kansas President Lown To be acquainted with W. F. Lown is to be acquainted with a personal friend of the Master. One needs only to observe him at his work in order to draw this conclusion. His concern for individual souls as detected in his preaching, together with his concern for the entire world—made known by his endeavors to train men and women for Christian leadership, are obvious bits of evidence which depict President Lown as a man who has corresponding interests and aims with the greatest Friend of humanity, the Son of man. His alert mind coupled with total dedication create an atmosphere in the classroom which is both enjoyable and conducive to learning. The glow on the faces of the students as they leave his classes is frequently the reflection of the light which continually glows within him. President Lown's entire life is simply an expression of his convictions. The serenity of his nature; the firmness with which he speaks; the unreservedness with which he ap- plies himself to each task; all are indications that the seed has fallen on good neat This page sponsored by: CHRISTIAN CHURCH White Cloud, Kansas an LARAMIE STREET GROCERY Dean Johnson As Dean of Students, it is the re- sponsibility of Dan Johnson to admin- ister any situation which concerns student welfare. To the Dean, how- ever, this is more than a responsibility; it is a duty to the Master. His direct manner coupled with his concern and love for the people of God makes his services as a counselor to the students and field representative for the school of inestimable value. Whether direct- ing the athletic program of the school, supervising housing or serving as Pro- fessor of Christian Education, he strives earnestly to forward the work of the Lord whom he serves. The teaching of Dan Johnson is not confined to the classroom for perhaps his greatest les- son in Christian education is rendered in the life which he lives “in Christ . Dean Lackey Words, because of their limi- tations in transmitting thoughts, are frequently found to be an inadequate means of accurately describing. They do not lend themselves well when one attempts to narrate the nature of Jim Lackey, Dean of Ed- ucation. The most affectionate words fall far short of actually de- scribing his genuine interest in, and love for the souls of men. To mere- ly say that he is energetic , does injustice to his manner. The pre- cision which Dean Lackey exercis- es, both in the classroom and out of the classroom, is representative of his very nature. Always the source of illumination, wnether from his desk, the pulpit or in the halls, the tremendous impact which Dean Lackey has upon those around him can be measured only by the Christ whom he serves.

This page sponsored by: Dorm life is the result of warm, family-like experiences of,., FRESHMAN CLASS Memorial Hall Life in Memorial Hall is crowded moments filled with rushing about and waiting in line, hurrying to classes and forgetting the text book, rapid conversations and long gab sessions, bed- lam in general.....and then come those quiet moments--lifted out of the bustling day by the nature of their closeness in communion with the Father. It is the quiet, reassuring Chris tian example of Harriet Irwin--an understand- ing friend and advisor to every girl. It is the sympathetic roommate, the cheerful neighbor next-door, and the long nights of studying. It is forgetting self--realizing that others come before oneself and that the Christ is above all, through all and in us all uniting us to himself and to one another in a common bond of love and service. Gathering around the piano a few moments before lunch... And then there are those private phone calls... Relaxing and sharing the experiences of the day. Christine House When the freshman man enters Manhattan Bible College, he finds a mem- orable experience awaiting him--life at Christine House. Here he enters into a lively round of housekeeping, practical jokes, and of course, home- work. Arich devotional life, strengthened by the family-style devotions which are held each evening during the week, is also his. Students learn, at Christine House, the give and take of living with other dedicated young Christians. Ready to lend a sympathetic ear and word of encouragement and advise to her boys is Mrs. Pearl Johnson, widow of the late T. H. Johnson, founder and first president of the college. Long after the student has left Manhattan Bible College, he will remember Mother Johnson and her gra- ciousness. This page sponsored by: DISCIPLES STUDENT FELLOWSHIP Manhattan, Kansas 32 Hudson House, located at 1200 Bluemont, is a home away from home for five Manhattan Bible College students, as well as the home of Professor and Mrs. Ben Duerfeldt and Danny. The experiences in this happy family which take place during the course of a school year will be the source of many fond memories throughout our lives. The congenial jesting, the family decisions, the evenings of devotion- all become factors which have their role in making us what we are. Appreciation for others becomes greater when one actually gets to know them--their ideals in life, the goals they have set for themselves, their abil- ity to reach these goals. Living together as fellow-workers for the Master creates a situation whereby we really get acquainted with one another, and develop an appreciation for our comrades which would be impossible in any other circumstance. This page sponsored by: WESTSIDE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Wichita, Kansas 33 Sundoulai is an organization which fulfills the need to offer the single and the married women of Manhattan Bible College an oppor- tunity to become better acquainted, and its membership includes all the women of M.B.C. During the course of the year each member serves on either the program or the refreshment committee for one meeting. The meetings are held in the homes of the faculty wives and are of an informal nature which is otk educational and spiritual. In content, they are geared to meet the practical needs of women in the min- istry, and are presented under the guidance of Mother Johnson and Mrs. Nadine Lown. Soundlai provides valuable experience in pro- gram planning, but more important it furnishes an opportunity for inspiration and service-- projects for this year nave been purchasing a mixer for the dining hall and sending finan- cial support to Haldor Heimer, missionary to Belgium Congo.

T. A. These three Greek let- ters stand for hope, honor, and fruth; these high ideals are the watchword of the soci- ety. The main project of E. T. A. is the programming of the annual M. B. C. Day, through which hundreds of young people have been inspired with the Christian ideal. This year, under the leadership of president Leland Griffin and M. B. C. Day Chair- man, Bob Hammond, E. T. A. hopes to make the Day more effective by giving those who attend a well-rounded look at the school life which prepares young men and women for a more complete service to Christ. 35 This page sponsored by: LOOK OUT Standard Publishing Company This page sponsored by: JACK AND JILL SHOP Ss) Junction City, Kansas and ENZOR'S MARKET Junction City, Kansas 36 There is no greater occupation than that of bringing the Gospel to men. One of the best ways of learning to present this Gospel, whether musically, artistically, or verbally, is through actual ex- perience. The Gospel Teams Organization affords this opportunity. Its members not only learn to serve more effectively, but in serving receive a rich blessing. Under the competent leadership of its sponsor: Professor Carr and president, Sam Nichols, the organization has been able to serve many congregations within a two hundred mile radius of Man- hattan. Gospel Team members are striving to study to show themselves approved unto God and obeying the command to GO!

Many of our smaller churches are unable to obtain a resident minister, either for financial reasons or be- cause of the shortage of Christian preachers. Churches in these circumstances are kept alive by student ministers. Perhaps we should define a student preacher. When we refer to a student preacher, we are not referring tosomeone who is half-preacher. Rather, we are re- ferring to someone who is all-preacher, but in a limited capacity. Our student min- isters are given Saturday, Sunday and Monday to devote to the Church. Twenty-five men students and two lady students supply churches in Kansas, Ne- braska, and Missouri.

Anyone interested in missions or any who are planning to become missionaries are in- vited to become members of this organ- ization. It meets to discuss missions, hear missionary speakers, and to have a special time for prayer for those who are serving on the mission field or will serve in the future. 4 “ wv Se 2 oe Ss a a ee EEE eEE— EES eS eee eee Each year this group sponsors a Sacrificial Banquet at which offerings, money which would be used to pay for the evening meal, are given to a missionary.

They have banded together in their new outfit the Christian Veteran's League with the purpose of improving school facilities in mind. The C. V. L. has undertaken many worthwhile projects of details in moving and remodeling. The prayer room in the chapel was one of these projects. The fine work they did is shown in the worshipful atmosphere one always finds on entering the prayer room. Under the leadership of Dan Johnson, sponsor and Gene Snyder, commander, the organization has made a commendable contribution to the work of the Lord in this place.

C. and everyday several pages of history are turned over in the library of M. B. C. Students not only wander through the pages of history, but also fhraugh philosophy, Greek, the Apostoli c writ- ers and their writings and even adventure with great men of Old Testament times. The library is a haven from the hub-bub of busy school life, where the student can study and meditate in somewhat of a quiet atmosphere. With the help of an efficient library staff, the students can easily avail themselves of the facilities of the library. Martha Amlong is the courteous, capable and friendly school librarian. Her will- ingness to lay aside whatever she may be doing to aid the perplexed student makes for her a host of grateful friends.

A team will multiply its efforts when it is assured of the in- terest and support of others. The Coeds, Manhattan Bible College's, Pep Club, is composed of the sports -enthus- iasts from Memorial Hall. The girls add plenty of sparkle and cheer to home games cis well as games away from home that are in easy traveling distance. No small portion of the suc- cess of M. B. C.'s team can be attributed to the splendid contribution of the Coeds. The M-Club is an organization of the men students who have earned their Letter in varsity competition. The M-Club elects its own officers and functions in a manner similar to our other organizations. It provides for the closer association of those who are adept in the realm of physical activities. Manhattan Sunday School Much of the energy which is displayed by our basketball boys on the hardwoods is gen- erated by three lively dynamos, better known as Cheerleaders. Right to left they are: Misses Pat Funnell, junior from Junction City; Pat Moore, freshman from Blunt, South Dakota; and Anita Fox, sophomore from Wichita. Their loyalty to the team, both at home and away, deserves much more than mere mention. If the Crusaders conclude 1957-58 with what we call a successful season, a major contributing factor will be the splendid per- formances on the part of Pat, Anita, and Pat. This page sponsored by: TROY CHRISTIAN CHURCH Troy, Kansas and COUNCIL GROVE CHRISTIAN CHURCH Council Grove, Kansas Under the competent leadership of Professor Duerfeldt, the choir has become a very effective witness for the Lord and for Manhattan Bible Col- lege. Long hours of practice each week have resulted in a group of var- ied and well-presented numbers. The Choir has presented concerts con- sisting of anthems and spirituals to numerous churches throughout the sur- rounding area. Another valuable service which the choir renders is lead- ing the singing and presenting special numbers in the worship service on Chapel nights. They have also sung on various occasions at the college such as the Johnson Memorial Lectures, M. B. C. Day, the Sunday School Rally, Christmas and Easter. Professor Duerfeldt and the choir are to be commended for the fine work which they have done. The Men's Quarrette is composed of four singing preachers who witness for the Lord in a fine way. Though each one has a church which he serves in a week-end ministry, the boys find time to spend in practice and in singing en- gagements throughout the state---cli- maxed by an Easter Revival engagement.

MABICO STAFF Miss Pat Funnell, editor of the 1958 Mabico, with the aid of Gene Warner, assistant editor, has done a magnificent job in preparing our yearbook for publication! Unless one has held the post of Chief Ed- itor, he can hardly realize the various involvements of time, thought, gathering and delegating, which are prerequisites to a success- ful production. This year's Mabico Staff consists of sixteen students who are willing to devote their time and talent to what they consider, a worthwhile endeavor. The efforts which they have expended together with their fine spirit of cooperation can best be realized by an examination of their product, the 1958 Mabico.

This can not be realized on the basis of our won- lost record alone; but by a close scrutiny of the total endeavor, we have framed our opinions. There are a number of ingredients which must unite in order to produce a basketball team. A team consists of much more than five boys with an eye for the bucket. Although victory is a desirable dish, we can sometimes learn greater lessons by eating humble pie. The most inspiring feature of this year's ball club is to know, while watching them in action, that they are putting everything that they have into every minute of the game. This is a characteristic which, if learned well, will prove to be invaluable throughout life.

Since the body is a gift from God, we must respect it and take care of it--hence physical edu- cation. Our program is set up to meet the needs of both men and women students. Our primary concern is for the welfare of the student himself, and secondly, for the value which it has for him with relation to others. Students who do not partici- pate in varsity sports are en- couraged to take part in MBC's intramural program. .. who have made M.B.C. and this annual possible, we extend our most sincere thanks. Whether a student, a professor, or a sup- porter of the school, each of you has exerted an influence which has affected our paths. This is a book with purpose. It has been prepared with the hope that young people will be challenged to go, preach, and teach; that their par- ents will be encouraged to send them; and that churches and in- dividuals will see that which they support--the growth spiritually, intellectually, and socially of the leaders of the Church of tomorrow. This book has tried to mirror that of which you are a part; we sin- cerely hope that it has done so. May the God whom we worship together and His Son Jesus, the Christ, bless you and give you peace. in _ � CaN) vie
