PORTER . . . Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us. Hebrews 12:1 ipRION COllEGE MARION, INDIANA Wlien thou goest, thy steps shall not he straightened; and when thou ninnest, thou shalt not stumhle. Proverbs 4:12 They shall run, and not he weary; and they shall walk and not faint, Isaiah 40:31 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, l)ut one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. I Corinthians 9:24 IK .- H ' « ; CONTENTS ?:V- ' ' ■ .y ' .‘ STUDENTS 1 RELIGION ■■■■ ACTIVITIES and ORGANIZATIONS r f ' 4THLETICS ADVERTISING Vr-, ' fyj MRS. W. F. McCONN In ineniory of one wliose life was closely interwoven with the educational work of the church, who was a capable and steadfast leader of the community, a faithful homemaker and mother, a loving helpmate and companion, and one who manifested a deep faith in God at all times, the Marionette Staff respectfully dedicates the 1954 Marionette to the memory of Mrs. Viva E. McConn. Mrs. McConn, the late wife of our President, came to Marion in 1932. She and her husband moved here from Miltonvale, Kansas, where she was grad¬ uated from Miltonvale College with a major in music. She did graduate work at the University of Kansas and Kansas City University. Mrs. VIcConn was widely known in educational organizations. She had served as a leader of Parent-Teacher and McCullough Associations in Marion, and Women’s Temperance Union of Indiana. She was identified with many religious groups of the city, and to her dying day, August 1, 1953, she manifested a consistent, sweet trust in the Lord. “With dignity, virtue, and pureness of heart She strived for the heavenly goal. Her race is run. Her crown is won. Now she reigns as a living soul.” E D I C A T I O N I have fought a good fight, I have finished Illy course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only. hut unto all them also that love his appearing. II Timothy 4:7, 8 William Finney McConn, B.O., A.M., D.D. President Serving Marion College for the past twenty-two years, Dr. McConn has been fully occupied with the task of a college president, yet has never hesitated to take time for some student’s problem or give a word of counsel and advice. Hardships have failed to retard his steady forward progress and consistent spirituality. Because of his time and service given to Marion College, we are being better equipped for life’s race. D M I N I S T R A T I O The services of the Administrative Staff have had a large part in the smooth functioning of our daily college life. Their ever-ready greet¬ ings and smiles are more appreciated when we realize all the work and activity behind the scenes. The office staffs have worked capably and efficiently to keep the business of Marion College in order. GRACE HARRINGT ON, Secreiary lOWARI) NOGGLE, Th.B. Field Representative OLIVE M.

George Failing, our pastor, came to us from Houghton, New York this year. He has very faithfully served as College Chaplain and has frequently brought us very inspiring chapel messages. At the College Church our pastor has encouraged and inspired us as he fed us from God’s word in a warm, tender spirit. The parsonage was always open to anyone seeking prayer and advice, and his understanding ways made it easy for many to seek counsel. Amid the duties of his busy life he still found time to attend many of the College functions; he was never too busy to give that cheerful greeting that can lighten a heavy heart or encourage a discouraged student.

For the experience and spiritual encouragement several religious organizations are actively en¬ gaged in Christian work at Marion College. Each Tuesday evening the Student Conference meets for testimonies and prayer. This group is respon¬ sible for regular services in the jail, factories, so¬ cial institutions, and organization of the gospel teams. The Ministerial Association is made up of those preparing for the ministry and through the purchase of public address equipment has been able to spread the street meetings to outlaying towns.

George Failing, was a time of victory for both new converts and those willing to obey God in His further leadings. Our observance of connectional Youth Week Avas during the last of January with Dr. and Mrs. S. I. McMillen, and song evangelist, Rev. Richard Traver. Miss Carrie Hazzard and Miss Lois Richardson were our Spring evangelists Avhen we again felt the visitation of the Holy Spirit. 44 Rkv. George Belknap Dr. and Mrs. Rufus Reisdorph MISSIONS Various efforts are exerted throughout the year to promote the missionary vision and of these the annual Missionary Convention is the most outstanding. This year our hearts were stirred as Dr. and Mrs. Rufus Reisdorph and Rev. George Belknap renewed the challenge before us. The zeal of the students was demonstrated as they accepted an additional project, the support of Rev. and Mrs. Robert Mattke, missionaries to Austra¬ lia, in addition to Rev. R. S. Nicholson, Jr., in Japan, and Malcolm and Vergie Ellis to leave for Africa this Spring. MISSIONARY PROJECT COMMITTEE Helen Letonek, treasurer; Robert Felton, president; Prof. Carter, sponsor; William French, secre¬ tary. 46 Bob Purdy, Dean Greene, Don Lewis, Walter Rice From four different states varsity quartet mem¬ bers united their voices as singing representatives of Marion College. Traveling through the area in the new Chevrolet station wagon, the quartet has worked to interest prospective students and share the message of Christ. The early morning prac¬ tices of sleepy-eyed harmonaring and the blend¬ ing of personalities as well as the voices of these fellows from Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, and Ten¬ nessee have greatly helped in the work of Howard Noggle, the field representative. Another group assisting the field representa¬ tive is the Trumpet Trio consisting of Allison Weatherhy from New Jersey, Eldine Landis from Indiana, and Dave Robertson from Pennsylvania. The Trio has represented the school at various times throughout the past year and have con¬ tinually used their instruments to sound the praises of the Lord. Their value to Marion Col¬ lege can he seen in the constant demand for their services by those who appreciate good music. V A R S I T Y Q U A R T E T Eldine Landis, Allison Weatherby, Dave Robertson I Tuesday evening Student Conference FIVE GOSPEL TEAMS “To take in spiritual growth one must give forth the overflow.” The gospel teams, under the sponsorship of the Student Conference, prac¬ tice this as they travel weekends, Sundays, and during Youth Week to various cities and states. Under the leadership of one of the team mem¬ bers, combined with prayer, and cooperation, the teams have presented many services in which souls have been challenged to a new relationship with Christ. Chalk talks, musical arrangements, ringing testimonies, and messages from God’s Word have been the means by which the teams have endeavored to exalt Christ and draw men unto Hi m. Albert Sparks.

STUDENT COUNCIL Do you have a problem? Just bring it before the Student Council and it will be given their careful consideration. This council is composed of the four class presidents, a representative from each class, the president of the council, Charles Hood, and the two social deans. Miss Della Waters and Professor Clarence Huffman. A closer relationship between student and faculty and tbe broadening and perfecting of tbe various Marion College functions bas been the main objective of this organization throughout the year. Early in the year the Council made recommendations of candidates for Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities. In De¬ cember they presented a petition before the stu¬ dent body protesting tbe sale of intoxicating liquors on American Army bases, which was then sent to Washington, D.C., for the considera¬ tion of the President of the United States. A special talent program presented at Thanks¬ giving time, under the direction of Stanley Morse, was one of their entertainment features. Shortly before Christmas, a Carol Sing in front of the manger scene on the Triangle added a little Christmas spirit for those busy packing for the holidays. Arbor Day is always looked forward to with eager enthusiasm and backward to with weary bodies and hands, more accustomed to pencils than mops and rakes, for this is the cam¬ pus cleanup when Marion College gets a new polish for the summer and again we see the Student Council at work! 52 COLLEGE ORCHESTRA Four o’clock every Tuesday and Thursday found about twenty-five musicians tuning up for orchestra rehearsal. As a result of diligent prac¬ tice and earnest persistence the group aequired a varied repertoire, with many of the arrange¬ ments done by Stanley More, an orchestra mem¬ ber. It performed at several special occasions this year, including Homecoming, Thanksgiving, and the final Music Recital. rS 1 !• t+Vv 1 February 24. Concert Stanley Morse .Trombone Soloist Ruth Hoover .

COLLEGE CHORALE 53 Hardld Ott and Run Smeege, president; Eldine Landis, vice president; Allison Weatherhy, treasurer; Grace Harrington, secretary. Ill the year’s competition, the Amphictyon Ath- eletic Society has held true to the meaning of its name, “neighbors.” After the bid for members on Rush Day the society spirit remained at a high pitch throughout the year. Rallying from the losses of last year the Amphics pushed forward for an undefeated football season and winners of the Marionette sales contest which began on Homecoming Day. Esther Calhoon was the in¬ dividual high with 41 sales. Less successful in the basketball season, the Amphics remained enthus¬ iastic and the team sported new red and white uni¬ forms which added color to an exciting season against their victorious opponents. One of the winter features was the sjionsoring of the Dixie Four Quartet in a variety program. CHEERLEADERS Sarah Bailey, Mary Dyer, Levetta Rohin.son, Naney Wiiiterherg, Shirley Spargo. Eugene Shaw and Don DeHaven, president; Phil Edwards and Cletus Kramer, vice president; Carol Wiley, secretary; Mildred Britton, treasurer. CHEERLEADERS Betty Calhoon, Gail Newby, Harold Kingdon, Peggy Boardnian, Thom Davidson. Flashing bright green as a token of their loyal¬ ty, a spirited group of students, enforced hy new recruits, emerged from Rush Day for a successful year at Marion College. The Eurekan Athletic So¬ ciety was victorious throughout most of the sports activities. The girls won the fall softball series and during the winter term were again winners on the basketball court, making the second undefeated season. Both the men’s basketball series were won with a total of nine victories against three losses. Mildred Henry was the Eurekan winner of the Marionette sales contest with 31 sales. This atmosphere of friendly competition promotes spirited rivalry among the students and adds life and color to the campus activities. EUREKANS 55 6 6 9 9 The “M” Club consists of the All-Stars chosen jointly from the softball, football, and basket¬ ball teams and the cheerleaders of the Amphic and Eurekan Athletic Societies. It is responsible CLUB for promoting the inter-society athletics and setting up rules governing the winners of the athletic letters. In the spring term a banquet is given to welcome the new members.

The Senior girls anxiously await the time in the spring term when the club entertains them at its annual tea. PARNASSUS CLUB 59 SPEECH CHOIR The fall term choric speech class gave rise to the Speech Choir which practiced diligently to improve the art of group interpretation. A wide variety of choral numhers added to the interest and greatly assisted in the development of the vocal abilities.

COUNCIL OF COLLEGE COEDS 62 EASTER BREAKFAST Early Palm Sunday morning found the fel¬ lows from the hoys’ dormitory husily cooking breakfast in the kitchen at Teter Hall. It has be¬ come a yearly custom for the Senators and Rep¬ resentatives to demonstrate the masculine kitchen ability, for which they have become famous by their scrambled eggs and bacon. The dining room was appropriately decorated and a brief inspira¬ tional program presented by the Congress Hall talent. “Jesus, which was crucified . . . is not here: for he is risen, as he said.” Matthew 28:5, 6. “Unto us a child is born . . . and the government shall be upon his shoulders.” Isaiah 9:6. Rustling skirts, corsages, and mingling odors of perfume and roast turkey are all familiar char¬ acteristics of the Christmas Dinner. The air seems to tingle with Yuletide feeling amid the candle- C H R I S T M A light, sparkling tree and other appropriate dec¬ orations. This dinner, as were the Valentine and Birthday Dinners, was given by the Council of College Coeds, an organization of dormitory girls. S DINNER 63 [ 1 «■ COMMUNITY CHORUS GROUP A group of faithful singers was responsible for the strains of music that drifted over the cam¬ pus each Monday night as they rehearsed for the Community Chorus.

The Music Department of Marion College, under tin direction of Professor Herman Baker, has produced performers of noteworthy merit. In l)oth Junior and Senior recitals tliese persons have demonstrated th eir skill in a program com- j)osed of various types of music: numhers from oratorios, opera arias, sacred, classic and modern in Italian. French, German, and English transla¬ tions. From the first vocalises to the classic arias, much practice is required to jtresent such a recital; however, the experience, applause and a sense of a task well-done is worth it all. 67 William trench, Robert Pelton, Julia Medows, John Cole, Kenneth Brown, Betty Walker Six outstanding seniors were approved to the honor of Who’s Who Among Students in Ameri¬ can Universities and Colleges on the basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and ability to succeed.

The one the editor spent night and day laboring over, the business manager went crazy bargaining over, the photographer got seasick swimming through, and the poor sponsor kept wondering about. Now it is complete! If you had been a frequent visitor of the tri¬ angle this year you would have heard members of the staff asking: “Say have you had your picture taken yet? We’ll make the appointment, but you had better he there.” “Oh, when will I ever finish this article? Inspiration, where are you?” “Say, editor, what do you do if the fellow doesn’t want his picture taken—put him in the obituary column?” The staff has tried to publish a book worthy of your reception. It is our prayer that in the future as this publication reminds you of ’53-’54, you shall he encouraged to “run with patience,” “for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not,” and “receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.” B(dj Wager, Robert Kessler, Barbara Earley, Norma Gray, Peggy Boardman.

The champs hold a ten game victory skein. This was not an easy task, however, for a glance at the records shows that in three of the five contests, the margin of victory was four points or less. The torch bearers averaged 39.8 tallies per game, while the Amphic six combined for a 30.8 aver¬ age. Individual season record holder was Gail Newby, leading the Green and White with the highest point total, 69, and the most markers in one game, 24. Mary Dyer led the Crew with a 50 point total. The interest in track this year was particularly due to the jjresence of a nuniher of capable run¬ ners. Competition was arranged on an individual and society basis. The leading event was Field Day in which the majority of popular track events were held such as the 100 yard dash, 220, 440, half mile, mile, relays, high jump, and standing and running broad jumps. VOLLEY BALL TRACK Adding to the athletic program this year has been the introduction of Volley Ball, a sport that can he enjoyed by both fellows and girls simul¬ taneously. With the provision of an outside court it has given some excellent spring recreation. The school series was played on an intramural basis. • I f ! !l !

It was a difficult task to name the eleven best players for some had to he left out and competi¬ tion was close for every position. The squad was relatively small in size, judging by most football teams. The average weight was 164 pounds—a light, but shifty crew. There was a fair distribution of players; seven were from the Amphic squad and four from the Eurekan. In regard to states, three were from Indiana, three from Ohio, and one from each of the following states: Illinois, Kentucky, South Carolina, North Carolina, and New Jersey. Honorable Mention went to Bob Wilmot and Ronald Smeenge.

Although sea¬ son statistics show that tbe boys squad would combine for a respectable 64.2 average per game, they are capable of exploding for super-sonic scores as was demonstrated by their victorious 110-76 rout of the All-School quintet in a post season classic. The overall height is only 5’11” but the “shorties” are capable of rugged rebound¬ ing and could hold their own against taller oppo¬ sition. All six of the girls chosen for that department have exceptional athletic abilities and were standouts in their respective positions during the season. The three guards were mainstays on de¬ fense and each forward had an accurate eye for the hoop with almost identical scoring averages. The first had a 10.6 average and the remaining two an even 10 counters per contest. SARAH NORRIS Guard Eurekan N.
