Freeborn, pastor of the College Wesleyan Methodist Church, is intent on Widening the horizons of Marion College religious life by making his ministry practical and scholarly.

The climax of scientific investigation has come lately in the application of atomic force. W g The challenge of this age is to utilize this force. For this job men and women with scientific skill and knowledge are 1 Q1 -- A 'P ck needed. They are the ones who will make the horizons l lllt it i it of scientiiic research enlarge. Fine art horizons are widening as new types are introduced and new fields of development W are discovered to give the aspiring fine arts -A student ample field for research and study. Marion College plays her part in the pro- gram of Widening Horizons by preparing A young people to meet the challenge of this age. wil Eight H ARTS AN SCIENCES Leroy Hermann makes a speech record.

I m L- - - Marion College has made -a definite step toward Widening Horizons on a Campus of Beauty this year. Governmental recognition of M.

The original plans called for this building to be erected at government expense, and to contain 6,250 square feet of floor space to be used for the N -by purpose of library expansion and added classroom facilities. ,.P- Another step forward was made by Marion Col- '- - 1, J i lege's Board of Managers when they voted to put ' ' p Ai ,g a full size basement under the building at College N' 144' expense, thus doubling the iioor space and making rooms available for science labora- tories, speech practice rooms and more classrooms.

Officers for the year included James Snow, president, Millie Jacobs, vice-president, Bob Vermilyea, secretaryg and James Judy, treasurer. Dr. Bowman was chosen as class sponsor. The juniors have proudly displayed their scarlet class sweaters with Wednesday selected as Junior Class Day. The junior class girls under the leadership of their captain, Jerry Asplin, came forth with the title of class champs in the basketball tournament. The class also helped to provide a new sound projector for the school. The one big event of the year in the minds of upper- classmen was the Junior-Senior Banquet held on May 16, at the Marion Hotel. Approximately one hundred twenty-four attended. The program and decorations centered aroruid the theme of Stars, and the motto adopted for the occasion was Too low they build who build beneath the stars. Sheldon Duecker and Jim Snow acted as masters of ceremonies. It is with great anticipation that the junior class looks forward to their senior year and beyond, to years of service for their Master.

Their pranks and tradi- tional greenness have given added zest to college life. Every class needs a governing body so Paul Miller was chosen as class president. The other officers were: vice-president, R. S. Nicholsong secretary, Arlene Sheetsg treasurer, John Snider. Dr. Dayton was elected class sponsor. With trembling knees the freshies waited with mingled feelings of anticipation and fear for that eventful day when they would become full-fledged freshmen. That day ar- rived, and President Miller and his royal court were crowned rulers of the class. Each officer was presented with a pail of grass denoting his rank, and the other members of the class were given green caps. The freshmen resembled a grammar school group at recess as they strutted over the campus with their hair parted in the middle or in braids, and wearing reversed clothing. Between classes the West- erners yodeled while people from other sections of the country crowed! As the year progressed their greenness gradually disap- peared as they donned sweaters of gray and scarlet and began to look forward to the time when they could bestow like treatment on other freshmen.

The Student Council of Marion College is organized with the purpose of creating better relations between the faculty and student body. This, the Council has achieved through loyal co- operation of the class presidents and elected representatives, and the two social deans and faculty committees. The Council has had several goals in view which have required much time for study and research. Among these have been the listing and following of the traditions of Marion College, the acting on and following of suggestions from students, making recommen- dations of candidates to Who's Who in American Colleges and Uni- versities, and helping to formulate student opinion on problems of importance and interest on the campus. - I As to projects of all-school interest, the Council has sponsored three, a Suggestion Contest to find ways of improving Marion College, an All-school Project which all students banded together to support, and the annual Arbor Day campus cleanup in the spring. Forty-four P. I TER SOCIETY CCUNCIL Acting as a clearing house for problems arising between the two literary societies, the Inter-Society Council occupies a place of prestige and importance on the M. C. campus. Realizing that uncontrolled and undirected competition often results in disaster, this group carefully and cautiously plans the Way for literary rivalry. The aim of the Council is realized by representative discussion of any existent difficulty. The president of each society is a member of the Council by virtue of his office while two other- representatives are elected from each society. Harmonious society relations this year have attested the good Work of the council and its faculty adviser, Dr. Bowman. Seated: Heavilin, Dr. Bow- man, Duecker Standing: York, B. Shigley, Olander Forty-five . I. .CLUB Organized in the fall of 46 the Veterans organization has fast become one of the largest and most active bodies on the campus. Consisting entirely of U. S. Ex-Service personnel this group has plunged forth with a two-fold objective, that of keeping international peace before their fellow students and promoting friendliness, understanding and school spirit in behalf of all ex-Service men. Under the leadership of commanding oiiicer, Beverly Wilson, this fun loving group sponsored a Wear What You Want party as well as an entertaining yet inspiring chapel program. Perhaps one of the most noticeable features of this organization is the cooperative manner in which they work. After observing this, it leaves little doubt in the minds of M. C. students how America, with these young men and women won the victory. Other ofiicers of the Club include: Y Dept. C. O. James Judy Adjutant Laverne Buell Chaplain Maynard McConn C. W. O.

Of all organizations with headquarters on the Marion College campus, the Alumni As- sociation is the most far-reaching. In many different professions, M. C.'s alumni represent her around the world. Officers of the association are president, Garl Beaverg vice-president, C. C. Deckerg and secretary-treasurer, Mrs. C. G. Lawrence. From the campus come several bulletins each year to keep alumni informed, to publish news of members, and to maintain the spirit of their alma mater. The organization keeps a guest register in the general office for information on alumni returning to the campus from time to time. M. C. graduates are deeply interested in the advancement of their school materially, scholastically, and spiritually. Their active interest in campus improvement is evidenced by the fact that over 518,000 of the assigned iE20,0 00 share on the building fund has been raised to date. For the calendar year 1946, the association had the largest number of paid dues in its history. The annual banquet of 1947 marked the acceptance of another group worthy to join the present members in greater accomplishments in the future. - Forty-seven , 1 MARIONETTE OIF l947 ,-5-,-ffaif , ,Mi-4 Ts., .

Beery Reverend Charles Carter Twice each year special meetings are held in the College Church under the direction of outstanding evangelists. These revival services affect not only the studentebody but the community as well and they are times of untold blessing and spiritual fellowship. This year the church was fortunate to secure outstanding evangelists from its own vicinity. The Rev. J. A. Beery, general evangelist of the Mennonite Brethren in Christ Church, and from Marion, brought the messages in the fall re- vival, September 29 to October 13. His were messages of truth and light, and many were inspired to go deeper in their spiritual life. . The spring revival, March 9-23, was conducted by The Rev. Charles Carter, a resident of Marion and a professor at the College. He has served the Wesleyan Methodist Church as minister, teacher, and as mis- sionary to West Africa for three terms. Rev. Carter's African experiences provided him with Ca rich stock of illustrations to draw from. The Spirit moved upon the campus, and seekers prayed through to definite victory. . , Sixty-eight , STUDE T CONFERENCE Student Conference is a time of singing God's praises, hearing a God-inspired message by a visiting minister or some member of the student body, and a time of sharing prayer burdens and testimonies. During these services, God has met with the student body. They have learned to be Workers together with Him. As the functioning body de- pends on the heart action, so the spiritual life of Marion College centers around the Student Conference. The ministry of this group includes not only the Tuesday evening meeting but also the outworking of the blessings of salvation through the gospel teams and through services in various institutions. The gospel teams have been in Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana and have held services in Wesleyan Methodist, Nazarene, Methodist Evangelical United Brethren Churches, and Salvation Army and Youth for Christ meetings. Through the ministry of these Spirit-filled students, God has saved and sanctified souls and many others have received encouragement. Other groups have held services at the children's home, iniirmary, jail, and Delta Electric Company. God has richly blessed each effort as Marion College young people have come to feel a definite responsibility for the welfare of souls. Officers of Student Conference were as follows: president, Robert Bateman, vice-president, Irene Ipeg secretary and treasurer, Betty Jane Ryan, and evangelists, Byron Tippey, Earl Snider, Harold Johnson, and Wilma Duncan. , Seated Ipe, Tippey Standing Ryan, Johnson Bateman Snider, Duncan W.

They also brought before the society such out- standing speakers as Rev. O. G. Wilson, Rev. S. D. Herron, Rev. I-I. K. Sheets, and Rev. H. T. Noggle. The oiiicers for the year were Robert Mattke, ,presidentg James Judy vice-presidentg and Arlene Sheets, secretary and treasurer. 7 Youth Week, January 25 to February 2, was the highlight of the year's activities. The Workers were Rev. E. E. Reiber, chalk artist and evangelist, and Rev. and Mrs. Kenneth Knapp, song directors. These devoted and talented Workers conducted the chapel services each morning and night services throughout the week. New determination to go through with the Lord was evidenced by many in keeping with the motto As for me and my generation, we will serve the Lord. Hallelujah for the Cross was chosen as the theme song. Left to right: Duncan, Mattke, Judy, Sheets The Bread of Life to the hungry multitudes might well be said to be the purpose and goal of the college S.M.W.B. Each monthly meeting has been definitely characterized by the special presence of the Lord. As a itting climax to the year's activity, a Missionary Convention was held April 18-20 in which many lives were challenged to a deeper consecration and received a greater missionary zeal. Dorothy Comingore has very efhciently served as president, Harold Shigley as vice-president, and Doris Powell as secretary. Seventy S. M. W. B.rF.M f 'Q' The missionary appeal has been echoing and re-echoing down through the years from the halls of Marion College. Many young people have answered the call to home and foreign missionary fields, and Marion Col- lege proudly displays her graduates on almost every continent. In December, Harold Johnson, president of the Foreign Mission Fel- lowship, and Dorothy Comingore, vice-president, represented Marion Col- lege during a missionary convention at the University of Toronto, Canada. , Seventy-one .F.

The personnel of the quartet: Blaine West, first tenor, Glen Traver, second tenor, Fletcher Spaulding, baritone, and Robert Vardaman, bass. Doing their part to Widen horizons in the religious field, the Marion College A Cappella Choir, under the capable lead- ership of Professor Herman Baker, is spreading the gospel in song and testi- mony over a Wide area of the country. The choir enjoyed an unusually busy season this year. Its two long tours were taken into the states of Michigan and Ohio. Special numbers were rendered by the choir in the Christmas and Easter cantatas.

It is the home of my soul, the altar of my devotions, the hearth of my faith, the center of my affections and the foretaste of heaven.
