D E D I C A T I O The Marionette Staff takes pride in dedicating the 1957 yearbook to Dr. Donald H. Porter. Dr. Porter is an alumnus of the Marion College Class of 1929. He graduated with both the A.B. and the B.S. degrees. While in school he was business manager ol the Marionette in 1928 and editor in 1929. These positions furnished practical experience applied to the annual now. H is M.A. degree was obtained from Indiana University. Dr. Porter then taught at Marion College. Later he again went to l.U. to work on a Ph.D. and it was completed in 1950. He was the thirteenth person to obtain this degree from l.U. Dr. Porter remained at Bloomington until 1952 and was an instructor in the department of mathematics. Then he returned to the staff of Marion College. Under his expert guidance the science and mathematics departments have experienced an increased yearly enrollment. Science and math may be his major interests but playing tennis and following baseball are next. When asked about the field of chemistry. Dr. Porter replied, “1 do not like to wash dishes.” He is one of very few men who really understands the theory of the fourth dimension. This knowledge is always applied to spiritual values. A few claim contradiction between science and the Holy Scriptures, but Dr. Porter is a staunch believer in the fact that there is no disagreement between the two. That he is a God¬ fearing man can never be mistaken. As the advisor of the Marionette, Dr. Porter is always ready to lend a listening ear. Much of his time is spent in conferences with printers, photographers, engravers, staff members, etc. Without him there would be no Marionette. Dr. Porter and son, Terry, at the Faculty Smorgasbord. WILLIAM FINNEY McCONN B.O., A.M., D.D. President Serving Marion College for the past quarter century, Dr. McConn has been fully occupied with the formal task of college president; yet he has never hesitated to take time to open the door of his office to all students seeking counsel — both academic and spiritual. No one has been a greater influence toward drawing Marion College and its constituency upward than our president. His service has been tireless, selfless and indispensable. Be¬ cause of his time and service given to Marion College, we are better able to open new doors to leadership, scholarship, stewardship, sports¬ manship, friendship, and salesmanship.

In these words were found the significance of the activities of the class as a group and also as individuals. The school year began early for the seniors because they returned early to plan the activities for freshmen orientation. On Oct. 6 the class sneaked to Detroit, Michigan, and Windsor, Ontario, Canada. A Christmas party was a festive occasion. The Junior-Senior Ban¬ quet and then the Alumni Banquet concluded the activities before graduation. Funds were raised for a class project to buy some library equipment. Pledges were taken for the Student Foundation Fund. The choice to attend Marion College was important but the impact on the lives of her graduates is endless. First Row: Anna I.ou Andrews .

Deisler, Vice-Pres.; J. Bruening, Treas.; M. Marsh, Sec.; K. Fraker, Student Council; J. Rowe, Pres.; G. Clark, Chaplain. The Sophomore year started with a bang! The freshmen were duly initiated with the chapel hour being devoted to the installation of class officers. They compensated by entertaining the freshmen at a party that night. The Sophs, realizing that this is their second year at MC, set¬ tle down to more serious study, finding this year’s subjects require more work. Class colors- royal blue and gold—were used for jackets. The motto was Forward, higher, and stronger. The scripture chosen was Phil. 3: 13, 14. The girls basketball team was the class tourney champ for this year. The bright highlight of the year was to be found when the Taylor Univer¬ sity Sophomores were invited here for a fellowship party. Elements like these make the Soph¬ omore of today the Junior of tomorrow. 36 SOPHOMORES First Rou Charles Abarr . Laurel, Montana Siiaron Allison . Fort Wayne, Ind. Stella Anderson . .

Although it took a while to get used to being called Frosh” again, the Freshman Class ol ’56-’57 eagerly entered college life. Coming from many parts of the nation, they found from the very beginning a welcome and friendly spirit at Marion College which helped them to quickly adjust to the new life. They chose as their class officers these qualified members of the class: Julius Strand, Pres.; Dean Kring, Vice-Pres.; Charles Adkins, Sec.; Beverly Sheets, I teas.; John Clifford, Chaplain; and Judith Kerschner, Student Council Representative. During this year the Freshman Class has endeavored to grow intellectually, spiritually, and socially, in order that it may ever uphold the ideals of the school which it has chosen and now considers as its school. 41 FRESHMEN First Row: Rita Abraham .. .

What is so special about this address? it is the home of Rev. and Mrs. Carl Beaver and David. Rev. Beaver came to us from Lalayette, Indiana, 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 inspired us as he presented God’s word to us. Although his responsibilities were many and his time limited, he was never too busy to give a cheerful greeting or lend a word of encouragement. 48 •V Y v iP j MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION STUDENT CONFERENCE This organization is made up of students prepar¬ ing for the ministry or any type of full time Christian service. It might he said that the purpose of the organization is to “...Seek” the lost men and women by going through the door to service at home. Spread¬ ing the gospel message by means of a public address system at the street meetings held in Marion and the surrounding community is one of the various means by which this organization spreads the good tidings of Christ. “Knock and it shall be opened to you.” The Student Conference meets each Tuesday evening for singing of favorite gospel hymns, sharing of personal victories in words of testimony, and fervently praying for campus as well as world wide needs. This group is responsible for regular services in the county jail, factories, social institutions, and organization of the gospel teams. The students who attend the mid-week prayer meet¬ ings elect the leaders for these various services. Dr. Dayton, Sponsor; B. McChesney, Jail Evangelist; H. North, President; S.

The five gospel teams, sponsored by the Student Conference with Professor I itus as Director, have shown Christ the Door to many people in various states and denom¬ inations. Talented and consecrated ministers, musicians, and artists under the guidance and leadership of the Holy Spirit have presented the Christ who is waiting admittance to every heart-door, in such a way that many souls have been greatly challenged to a new relationship with Christ. i J.

The core of these weekly meetings consists of prayer and discussions to promote a missionary vision and spirit on the campus which will inspire Marion College students to pi ay lor, send money to, and go as leaders to open the doors to the needy souls in foreign lands. The high¬ light of the year’s activities is the joint sponsorship of the annual Missionary Convention. WESLEYAN YOUTH The Wesleyan Youth Organization of the C.ollege Church is closely associated with campus life although it is not a campus organization. This organization is composed of college youth who hold their meetings each Sunday evening prior to the regular church services. This group assists in making the arrange¬ ments for the Missionary Convention. The officers work in co-operation with the other Wesleyan Youth leaders in Marion to sponsor the annual Youth Week Services. The vital importance of a completely surrendered life to Christ is given special emphasis when opening the door to Christian service. Sealed: A. Paine, Program; M. Fowler, Sec.; B. Mitchell, Pres..

VARSITY QUARTETS Winter Quartet: Len Deters, 2nd tenor; Don Carlson, 1st tenor; Keith Fraker, bass; Jim Blackburn, baritone. The Varsity Quartets of Marion College are organized lor a twofold purpose. “...Let us sing, sing, sing,” expresses the purpose to carry the gospel message in song. Secondly, the group travels with Howard Noggle, field representative, to encourage prospective students to attend Marion College. Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Tennessee are represented in the quartet for the school year, 1956-57. Whether from north or south they have blended their voices to sing the praises of the Lord throughout the Marion area. The summer quartet travels during the entire season from June until September. Besides sing¬ ing in churches, many appearances are made at youth camps and Bible conferences. Here again, many young people become enthusiastic about atten ding Marion College.

REVIVALS Evangelists: Misses Carrie Hazard and Lois Richardson Truly the vision of Marion College students has been enlarged by the special services ot this school year. The Fall revival was con¬ ducted by Rev. V. A. Mitchell with Prof. Herman Baker, head of the College Music Department, in charge of music. For our workers during the connectional Youth Week, we had Rev. Quentin Everest and song evan¬ gelist, Rev. Orville Butcher. The Spring re- t ' .ong Evangelists: Rev. and Mrs. Kenneth Knapp vival was under the leadership of Misses Carrie Hazard and Lois Richardson with Rev. and Mrs. Kenneth Knapp conducting the music. These were times of gracious victory for those willing to obey God in His command to open the door of our hearts so that we might win others for His kingdom. “When fesus comes in, He will save you from sin; but YOU must open the door”.

Harold Johnson. “The Whitened Harvest Field” was the theme of the Missionary Convention held October 10-14. Mission fields in Japan, Mexico, Israel, and South America were represented by Rev. and Mrs. Harold Johnson, Mr. Nate Scharff, and Miss Erma Steinacker. Our hearts were greatly stirred during the consecrated messages of these spiritual door-open¬ ers. Our vision was lifted upward and outward to the people whom we can see through Christ’s open door to missions. This was not just anoth :r annual Missionary Convention, but a time of blessing and great challenge to every Christian. Missionary Project Committee: R. Mitchell, Treas. H. North, Pres. I .

If anyone had that kind of thought in mind, they could have dispelled it after the most thrilling basketball season Marion College has ever known. With the series tied at three games apiece, the Eurekans squeaked by in the final game by one point. The Eurekans’ talent-laden team had four returning starters and a powerful group of freshmen that coidd put out a second team nearly comparable to the first string. Bruening was the Eurekan high scorer with 105 points for a 15 point average, but was edged in aver¬ age by Burket who netted 15.25 in five games. Captain Harvey, Huber, Crim and sharp shoot¬ ing Brunner rounded out the first team with Leech, Chrispell, and Griswold to fill the holes. SCORES Eurekan 51 . 60 . 75 ... 67 . 65 . 53 ... 58 .

AMPHICS The Amphics, pre-season underdogs, made an admirable showing by grasping the first two games, taking a three-two lead in the series, and demanding that the Eurckans fight for the trophy. Anchored around an excellent shot and rebound man, Kaiser, who tallied 126 points for a 19.3 average, the Amphics took the 1957 season to the wire. Carlson, Landis, Carter, Baker, Bardsley and Captain-Coach Killian made np a team that had height, speed, and shooting ability. NOTE: Neither team loses a player by graduation.

FOOTBALL The Amphic football team won the opening game of the five game series by a close score of 7 to 0. The Eurekans won a close 6 to 2 victory in the second game. The third game proved to be even closer than the two previous games. Neither team’s defense allowed a single score and the game ended in a scoreless tie. The Eurekans went ahead one game in the football series by winning the fourth game 12 to 6. The Eurekans won the final game by a score of 14 to 0, giving them the champion¬ ship for this year.

SOFTBALL Even though spikes touching home plate meant runs lor the Eurekans; it meant more runs for the Amphic crew. The Eurekans got off to a good lead with a score such as 9 to 0, but the persistant, hard-hitting Amphics came back from these seemingly unsurmountable leads to win the majority of games and cap the 1956 softball series. Other Amphic wins included scores such as 17 to 14 and 8 to 4. AMPHICS: Row One: W. Nuckols, CL Landis, C. Killian, M. Huflaker, C. Brown. Row Two: A. Mimnaugh, H. Brown, I). Baker, L. Deters, K.

He outran Don Carlson; J ulian Bruen- ing, the defending champ; and Dale Harvey in that order as the first four finishers. With only Carlson on the Amphic squad, the Eurekans were the winning team. The 1955-56 season was a large success for the track teams since they used the Marion High track. The Eurekans won the season meet with a score of 73-54. There were three letters awarded for individual honors with more than 10 points in the three week meet. Bruening won 4 individual events and re¬ ceived 23points; McKinley won 3 individ¬ uals with 18 points; and McIntyre 1544 points in two wins.

AMPHICS MC’s first hardball season was a huge success—especially for the Green and White the 1956 season series by 2 games to 1. The scores were 7-9, 5-0 and 3-1. The outstanding performer was Eurekan pitcher, Brunner, who struck out 17 batters in a possible 21 in the second game of the series. Weatherby was the only hitter and he knocked three solid singles. Although the Amphic crew put up a gallant offensive, the Eurekan’s strong attack led them to a final score of 3-1 to capture the series.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is our council. It is the voice of the student body to secure a closer relationship among the students and between the faculty and the students. Meetings are held twice a month to discuss student government and to plan other activities for us. Funds are raised annually for a project to pur¬ chase something that the school needs. The council can only function as they have the support and cooperation of the facidty and student body. Suggestions to them are always in order. No organization can rise any higher than its membership and the leadership is chosen from that. So affirm your democratic rights by helping the Student Council open the door to the future. P.

MARIONETTE The MARIONETTE for 1957 is the school year in pictures. It is not only for the present but it also preserves our memories tor the future. The staff has worked diligently to produce a book worthy of the name MARIONETTE. Plans were laid in the summer of 1956 in order to get an early start. The finished book is the prize after a year of seemingly endless effort. When the MARIONETTE is put into your hands, remember that it is the reflection of another year at MC and that the images are not behind closed doors, but are the rays of light to shine through the doorways to to¬ morrow.

CHORUS A group of enthusiastic singers was responsible for the strains of music that drifted over the campus each Monday night as they rehearsed for the Community Chorus. This group of people, composed of students, faculty, and neighbors, sings special praises to the Almighty at His special seasons — Christinas and Easter. Under the direction of Professor Herman Baker, the Chorus sang the traditional Handel’s MESSIAH dur¬ ing the Christmas season. This oratorio, Handel’s most successful and best known, was composed in the year 1741, in twenty-four days. During the Easter season the group presented Mendelssohn’s ELIJAH. This was the first time in four years that this great oratorio was presented here. Hearts were blessed and spirits were lifted as the beautiful rendition turned thought upward t o the resurrected Christ. 78 Up Madelyn Marsh, Accompanist Row One: R. Cox, E.

CHOIR I his year the Choir travelled beyond its usual boundaries into the states of Wisconsin and Kentucky, bringing the message of hope, peace and joy into the local churches of the Marion area. All members of the Choir have sung their way into the hearts of those who have heard this ministry of praise to God. I he twenty-two voice Choir, under the direction of Prof. Herman Baker, and accompanied by Madelyn Marsh, seeks to present the Christ to those who come under the sound of its voice, while at the same time representing Marion College. The memories of wonderful Christian fellowship and spiritual blessings overshadow the memories of aching feet, heavy eyelids, and burning throats. The experience gained from being in the Choir has made a definite imprint in the hearts and lives of all those who have participated. 79 JUNE DIXON RACHEL ENYART GEORGE ROBINSON RACHEL COX ELEANOR BAKER BEVERLY SHEETS KYUNG CHAI CHUN THOMAS ROUGH ROGER BUDDE nancy McGinnis MADELYN MARSH JOHN BLAINE ANN GLENN DORIS MURPHY ETHEL YOUNG OBERT HEAVILIN CHARLES HEAVILIN LOUEVA PRUITT Row One: J.

BRASS ENSEMBLE I he Brass Ensemble, directed by Mr. Franklin Shannon, was a new organization on Marion College campus this year. It was organized for those who play wind instruments and to provide music for school activities. The fifteen members were really the members of a band. As new members join in future years, it is hoped that a band will finally result. Regular band music, both original and transcribed, was in the repertoire. New music just published for wind ensembles was also included. Several concerts were presented for the student body and the group participated in the final Music Recital. Calls were accepted to play for other special occasions outside the school. On Commencement day the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance” were heard from the Brass Ensemble. A Men’s Chorus harmonizes.

I his group is chosen by the faculty after the sub¬ mission of candidates by the Student Council. These students were chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and ability to succeed. May the Lord bless these four as they open doors to the many fields of Christ¬ ian service. fust two years! Yes, Jim Blackburn has only been with us for two years, but in that short time has added his “spark to the campus. Originally hailing from Rockwood, Tennessee, Jim came to Marion from Central College where he was active in choir, quartet, as business manager of the Centralian and many other activities. Continuing his ac¬ tivities here at Marion, Jim has actively worked in Student Council and Spanish Club. He has represented the school in gospel team work and the Varsity Quartet. As Senior Class president his leadership abilities have been evident. His consistent Christian life and liv¬ ing testimony have come to be appreciated by his friends and classmates. With confidence he has been given this place in Who’s Who. A quiet contributor to the campus, Doris Murphy from Dayton, Ohio, has been active in both cultural and religious activities. All four years she has faithfully served in gospel team work with her musical and speech ability. Presenting speech recitals, giving readings, and teaching child evangelism have all become second nature to Doris. She has served on the Journal Staff, as president of the Forensic Club, and as president of the German Club. In her class she was sophomore secretary and junior treasurer. Parnassus Club, F.T.A., I.R.C., C.C.C. presidency, and Student Con¬ ference have all added their load to her heavy extra-curricular schedule. Doris has proved herself as a sincere Christian and well deserves a place in Who’s Who. ■B - Mi WHO Hailing from the Buckeye State, Priscilla Kuhn is found here and there on the campus —always doing something. Energetic and cap¬ able, she has manifest her leadership ability in F.M.F. as president, and as secretary in both the Ministerial Association and Missionary Project Committee. One of the highlights of her school life has been the Bahama Crusade in December of ’55. The after-effects weren’t so pleasant though, were they, Pris? (Remem¬ ber the mumps?) Between evangelistic meet¬ ings, Priscilla has also found time to work on the Journal Staff, and be an active mem¬ ber of Musicae and French Club. As she con¬ tinues to let God direct her life, we are sure she will be a blessing to those with whom she comes in contact. Vice-President of the Senior Class, Jerry Terrill of Page, Nebraska, came to Marion alter spending two years at Miltonvale College. While there, Jerry was a member of the quartet and music ensemble, and actively parti¬ cipated in other school activities. In his first year at Marion, Jerry represented the school in gospel team work. Whenever there’s a party or some work to be done, Jerry is always ready to lend a helping hand. His friendliness and willingness to work have earned him the place of Senior class vice-president. Whether blend¬ ing his tenor voice in a group, singing a solo, or just being helpful, Jerry has contributed greatly to school life. SENIOR CHRISTMAS PARTY IT TAKES CONCENTRATION GRANDMA MOSES????
