The harmony of the bells, a gray silhouette through winter trees, the strength and grace of enduring stone — these are elements of Oglethorpe that are timeless. These form the thread that unites the past and the future. f • .„ 0KKHm- A flower is also a timeless thing, and spring, although it passes quickly, has its place in the permanence of the seasons. At Oglethorpe, spring comes with the first dafi ' odil, a branch of dog- wood, and then the glory of everything in full bloom. The changelessness of nature at Oglethorpe is also reflected in the stillness of Lake Pheobe. We see it in the woods that line its shores, the tran- quility of a solitary boat, and in the placid sur- face of the water as it mirrors an ageless sky. ' ? -¥ ' 12! ' ' i ' ?

Their beauty, solidarity, and strength symbolize an ideal that has already lasted more than a century. tt « , t : !- Not all permanence at Oglethorpe is tangible, however. Were it not for the dynamic leader- ship and determination of Dr. Samuel K. Tal- mage and Dr. Thornwell Jacobs the realization of Oglethorpe would never have been met. What we know as Oglethorpe dates from 1913, but Oglethorpe University actually began in 1835. Our past history is an ever present reminder of the Oglethorpe tradition and proud heritage that has been left to us. 12 tw i 13 Oglethorpe has come a long way, through Civil War, Reconstruction, and financial hard- ship. Still it has retained from the past the per- manences of its ideal. In order to assure these in the future, growth must be and is one of the most vital permanences at Oglethorpe. Change is everywhere as the Oglethorpe of today stretches to reach the heights of tomorrow. 14 15 Yes, like the city of Atlanta Oglethorpe has and continues to change and grow, for Yesterday is but today ' s memory, and to- morrow is today ' s dream ... Kahlil Gibran 16 x Today is life and vibrancy; change is in the air and there is an aura of excitement. Inevi- tably, turmoil comes with rapid growth. But today Oglethorpe, as well as each individual student, has been given the opportunity to con- vert her dreams into realities. Yet amid this dynamic background the everyday things continue to be much as they were yesterday and as they will be tomorrow. Students still rush to classes, learn, argue, en- joy the world outside four walls, and fall in love. :, M..: 1-- .

The bright vitality of autumn, the grey- ness of a winter that only occasionally sparkles in white, the budding green and warmth of a long-awaited spring . . ■h ' i V S '  •  , ,. ' -ii-rt ' -:%m 22 As they stand in the shadows of night and day, our campus buildings, in their Gothic tra- dition of solidity and strength, are a tangible symbol of the Oglethorpe Ideal. As we stroll in these shadows, muse on these steps, or pause to gaze at the softly illumined tower on a misty night, we are part of this Ideal. 23 Today is people — people playing cards, chat- ting between classes, waiting in the cafeteria lines, cheering at games. These things and many more we will remember, and know that among the richest rewards of our Oglethorpe years were our friendships. ju k i . 1 .k i i ' t ' n «  _ «tt i 25 26 Today is a myriad of beginnings. Outwardly our year ' s beginnings concerned the mixed ex- citements and frustrations of orientation, regis- tration, and, for the freshmen who have more claim to beginnings than anyone, the rigors of rat week. Inwardly, however, are occurring more pro- found and significant beginnings the awaken- ing of minds, as each of us is shaped, made aware. 27 As today ' s year progresses, beginnings grow to involvements, and students become ab- sorbed in a constant, often behind-the-scenes, flow of activities. Nearly everyone at Ogle- thorpe works hard at something, and those who give themselves with dedication find some of the most wonderful experiences Oglethorpe can offer. N { m 29 30 Perhaps most of all, today is learning: the long hours of study in the library, the cram- ming, the frustrated yet determined grappling for facts. To be moved by a poem, struck by the logic of an equation, wonder at a past era, discover a truth — this is w hv we came. 31 Reflections are glimpses into the past, each thought bringing the shadow of yesterday clos- er to the realness of today. Now our today is already becoming a mem- ory; it ' s realness is already becoming shadowy and dim. But we will remember and our mem- ories of Oglethorpe will enrich all our todays to come. L..

Of particular import are his artistic, literary, and architectural tal- ents. The Division of Humanities emphasizes man ' s essential humanness and seeks to devel- ope these human qualities. Through the study of Art, English, Foreign Languages, Literature, and Philosophy, each student may fulfil his im- portant place among his fellow men. Wendell H. Brown, A.B., A.M..

Igp ORIENTATION Students Participate in Fall Activities As fall comes to the Oglethorpe campus, stu- dents find themselves occupied with all the ac- tivities necessary to starting another school year. Excitement fills the air as one finds him- self running here and there, going to new classes, attempting to find that all-impossible parking place, older students befriending new ones, re- ceiving that first letter from home, or spend- ing a quiet moment of solitude or loneliness — All of this is part of orientation at Oglethorpe. % i 50 ' 5 ' .

Rats are lowly creatures who answer any and all demands, from. Tell where the O.C. swimming pool is to be found. to. Hey Rat! Climb that treel Though the rats seem to stand alone at the beginning of the week, by the end no such situation will exist. 54 FALL DANCES Informal Dances Give Break from Studying As students begin to get down to serious studying the social committee makes sure that they also get down to some serious fun at their fall dances on weekends. Held on campus, at the B B Ranch, or the American Legion with bands pouring forth their favorite music, the students indeed find the much needed relaxa- tion and fun. GHOST STORIES Witches and Goblins Haunt O.C. Auditorium Ghost Story Readings are a traditional part of the witching season at Oglethorpe. Under the sponsorship of the Players, faculty and students are invited to participate in reading spooky stories on Halloween Eve. The audi- torium becomes the home of ghosts and goblins, terrorizing all who enter with their haunting screams and grumblings. 56 58 FALL PLAYS Players Begin Year with Medieval Plays The Players, an integral part of the force which provides entertainment for the Oglethorpe cam- pus, started their season with two Medieval plays in the fall. Everyman, a morality play, delighted the audiences with its sincere message to mankind, while Johan, Johan, a bawdy comedy, humored them with its winning slap- stick. SPRING PLAYS Play and Movie Close the Successful Season The Players finished up their season with another play, The Silver Cord, and one of their excellent movies. The play charmed the audiences with its peculiar situation and wit. The movie, using the talents of many students, rates as one of the finest achievements of the players. ' 60 61 62 BOAR ' S HEAD The Christmas Spirit Fills The O.C. Campus Like the first winter snow the traditional Boar ' s Head Ceremony was held at the begin- ning of the Christmas Season. It was the occa- sion for the initiation of the new members of the Boars Head Honorary Fraternity for 1967. The program included a presentation of the new members, carols sung by the chorus, read- ings of Christmas Literature, and placing the boar ' s head before the yule log. 63 Miss Gretchen Von Muller 1967 Homecoming Queen HOMECOMING Pretty Girls Vie for a Most Queenly Title An intregal part of the homecoming activi- ties at Oglethorpe is the traditional crowning of the Homecoming Queen during halftime of the basketball game. The candidates are nominated by the various campus organiza- tions and selected by student vote. This year the girls represented the many-faceted person- ality of Oglethorpe.

In ad- dition to these informative presentations the fine Arts Committee recognized Student talent to complete this stimulating series. 72 • ' Fine Arts Awards Instrumental Jacqueline Stark Vocal Martha Ernst Acting Pamela Grossman 74 SPRING ENTERTAINMENT Lettermen, Shirelles, Varieties Highlight Spring As the Second trimester begins. Students find new entertainment an enjoyable break from studies. This year Spring Varieties proved to be a fine expression of the talent on campus. Con- certs by the Lettermen, the Tarns, and the Shirelles livened the spirits of all who attended these two pleasureable evenings. 75 BLACK AND WHITE Frosh Entertain with Traditional Formal The Black and White is sponsored annually by the freshman class. They have projects such as car washes, candy sales, and slave sales to make the necessary money for the dance. This year the students were entertained at the American Motor Hotel where music was sup- plied by Doctor Feelgood and the Interns. 76 77 SPRING FORMAL Spring Formal Brings the Year to a Close The Spring Formal is the last dance for Ogle- thorpe Seniors before they graduate. This year they enjoyed themselves at the Marriott, decorated with red and black daisies, and music provided by Jimmy Fuller and his Or- chestra. The dancing and gaity of the evening lasted far into the night and will be a lasting memory to Oglethorpe ' s 1967 graduates. 78 - PH 79 GRADUATION 1967 Commencement — an End and a New Beginning Graduation 1967 brought to a climax a long and arduous struggle for those seniors in the graduating class. But as is oftimes stated it was also a Commencement. This year the Commencement speech was delivered by the new President of Oglethorpe College, Dr. Paul K. Vonk. June 4, 1967 will long stand out in the minds of the graduates who received their diplomas and capes for as they look back on their lives ti V will remember Oglethorpe and the alma ma r to which we all owe our allegiance.  81 Dr. PaulK.

This governing organiza- tion is designed to serve as the unifying and coordinating body for all student activities and events. As our student body has grown larger over the past few years, each successive Student Government has found the job of providing activities for these students more difficult. This year ' s Student Government has lived up to the challenge and provided activities for all stu- dents ' interests.

The treasurer of each of these organizations is responsible for the money allocated for its use. The Board of Treasurers was organized to insure close co- ordination with the Student Government, and to help the treasurers keep proper and uniform records. John Sims, Bored of Treasurers?

The letters S.U.S.G.A. stand for the Southern Universities Student Government Associations, which means just what it says and which pro- vides student governments with a common meeting ground at periodic meetings to com- pare their work and exchange ideas. Oglethorpe was fortunate this year to have had Bill Weber elected at the annual meeting to represent the Georgia colleges and univer- sities and to coordinate their work during this year. His fine talents have served S.U.S.G.A. well and given our college prestige. Bill Weber fc? Tom Port and Steve White Student Union Tom Port and Ste e White head the seldom heard of Student Union, which is responsible for maintaining our Student Union (consisting for the moment of the Pit ). This year their efforts have been directed toward arranging for facilities to go into our new Student Union Building to be completed and opened during the next year. 87 Social Committee The Social Committee is a committee of the Student Government whose function it is to arrange for all social activities that come directly under Student Government sponsor- ship. This year ' s Social Committee was headed by Bill Weber and was very active. They arranged for two on campus Concerts, four formals, a number of small dances at the Legion Hall, the B B Ranch, and the Pit ' and free movies almost every weekend. 88 FRONT ROW: Rusty Cutler, Tim Marx; BACK ROW: Mark Mulligan, Aubrey Whitaker, Doug Alexander ■«• w «r rf ■ ' Intramural Council The men and womens Intramural Council are responsible for providing intramural ath- letic competition for interested students and organizations.

The Honor Committee also considers amendments to the Honor Code, and submits the proposals it approves to the stu- dents and faculty for radification. This year ' s Committee was composed of Grafton Biglow, Ginger Anderson, Nikki McCoy, and Stuart Levenson. The Honor Court hears all cases of alleged violations of the Honor Code and has the au- thority to recommend punishment for those found guilty subject to the approval of the Dean of the College. The Court is composed of two elected members from each class as the Committee is composed of one member from each class, and both groups have a chair- man appointed by the previous chairman, and a faculty advisor. This year ' s Court was composed of Lee Ann Goenne, Terry Robinson, Tom Cone, Richard Schanen, Judy Ponturo, Ronald Binkney, Tom Reilly, and Bill Weber.

People to People People to People is based on the principle that world peace can best be achieved by per- sonal understanding among people of the world. An example of People to People ' s sincerity in working toward their goal is the close alliance between them and the International Club for Oglethorpe ' s foreign students. As part of their efforts over the past year. People to People have sponsored many films and guest speakers on foreign topics. PRESIDENT: Linda NewMark 100 Yamacraw Gun Club The Gun Club was organized to encourage organized rifle and pistol shooting among mem- bers of the College community with the goal of developing broader knowledge, safer handling, and the proper care of firearms, and to de-el- ope expert marksmanship and sportsmanship. It might be well to add that the club is under the guidance of Chief Edwards. Head of Campus Security, who once shot himself in the foot. ■ -v ■• ' I Chief Edwards.

As a result of this need three church affiliated student groups have renewed their old charters with the Student Government. The Baptist Student Union was the group to renew its charter last year. This year both the Canterbury Association, for Episcopal students, and the Newman Club, for Roman Catholic students, renewed their charters. The next step as outlined by Dr. Nishimuri. who serves as the College chaplain, is the revival of the Interfaith Council which would try to in- tegrate the efforts of these groups. 103 r m.- ' ' FRONT ROW: Peppie Miller, Mrs. Agnew, SPONSOR; BACK ROW: Nancy Keenan.

Intramural Picture The Raiders arid Sigs each did an about face in Intra- murals this year with the Raiders, defending football champs, and the Sigs, runners-up in basketball last season to the now-extinct Tigers, each snatching the crown from the one in the favorite ' s role. The Junior Raiders, highly favored to regain the football crown which they won as sophomores, were upset in the first round of the play-offs for their first loss ever, and the powerful Sigs went on to cap the crown. In basketball, the Sigs got off to a great start; the Raiders started sl ow, but came on strong to edge the Sigs in the playoffs. The Studds, a Freshman team, dominated the B League in basketball, and were also outstanding in the football season. Next year should be an interesting one as the two top powers, the Sigs and the Raiders, battle it out again. Schanen looks for an open receiver as Sigs roll.

Coach Bill Carter and Assistant Coach John Guthrie did a creditable job in boss- ing the 1966-67 team, in Carter ' s first year as head coach. The Petrels were at a height disadvantage all year, but their desire to win was unequalled, and they were an exciting team to watch, as proved by the opening game against Shorter, the Ar- kansas State battle, and the Georgetown victory in the Christmas Tourney. Doug Alexander led the team in scoring with 15 points a game, with Jim Hoggarth and Roger Littell not far behind. Alexander, in the last game of the season, set two records in pumping in 43 points against Chattanooga. The Petrels played such powers as Providence, with its AU-American Jim Walker, Murray State ' s Thoroughbreds, and Valdosta State ' s Rebels. Next year the schedule should be even tougher with N.Y.U. and Southern Illinois included, but with the entire team returning, we are looking forward to an even better season.

Coach Tom Norwood took over for departed Coach Guthrie midway through the season and led the Oglethorpe nine to a fine finish. At one time, the Petrels had amassed a seven-game winning streak, and ended the season winning seven out of the last ten games. Season ' s Results O.C. 7 Earlham 1 O.C. O.C. 2 Hillsdale O.C.

TENNIS TEAM Big Three, Combination for Success The Oglethorpe tennis team has concluded the 1967 season with a spanking 14 — 3 record, thanks to glittering play by Robbie Smith, Joe Dennie and Byron Walbeck. The Oglethorpe College Big Three combined to win 45 out of 51 singles matches including 90 sets won against 18 losses. In doubles, the Smith-Dennis team won 15 of 16 matches and 30 of 33 sets. Walbeck teamed with Robbie Ban- ner in the number two doubles for 13 out of 14 wins including 26 of 28 sets. Against major college competition, Coach Bill Carter ' s team won three of four. They de- feated William and Mary, Vanderbilt and Fur- man while losing to a strong Georgia team. Og thorpe ' s first female varsity athlete, Sharon lleason, held her own against the male players s_ faced, compiling an even .500 mark. Coach Carter enjoys change of scenery in Spring sports — trading spilces for tennis shoes. 140 Seasons Record Kalamazoo 2 6 L Appalachian 7- -0 W Vanderbilt 5- -4 W William and Mary 8- 1 W West Georgia 9 -0 W Georgia 1- -8 L Chattanooga 9 W West Georgia 6- -3 W Erskine 7- -2 W Chattanooga 8- -1 W Georgia State 7- -2 W Emory 5- -4 W Furman 6- -3 W Tennessee Wesleyan 6- -3 W Erskine 5- -4 W Emory 4- -5 L Georgia State 8- -1 W Won— 14 Lost— 3 Dave Bonham Pete Butler Joe Dennis 141 i Byron Walbeck Rusty Jones i J A k fV L Robbie Danner Sharon Gleason 142 RIFLE AND PISTOL TEAM Gun Teams Take Aim on Another Successful Year The Rifle and Pistol teams experienced diffi- culty this year when the construction of new dorms interfered with the rifle range.
