Faces ot 'Friends will recall warm triendships ot campus days and strengthen the golden cord which gives the only real meaning to lite, Buildings and campus shots ot events will bring again the strong sense ot satistaction in belonging to a place like OBU. And beyond all memories ot the past, this bool: will serve as a sharp spur when days ot lethargy tend to descend as the responsibility ot the middle years adds burdens to the bouyant step ot youth: tor the achieve- ments ot college friends are stimulating points to us all and add tuel to our own tires ot hope.

ITIES Getting to know you, learning to like yon was given as great boost by the annual faculty reception at the beginning of each school year. First There Was . Faculty members made a great Sacrifice to the student body the warm September morning they came dressed in their long hot robes for formal introduction in chapel. Mr. Jerome Ziokriek helped Roy Bnokalew with his pre-enrollment. Peggy Gunn, Linda Fording, and Gay Goodwin found the expense and excitement of new books all in Bison book store. 4 fl f ff, , QS' zat:m3ue, . mum z ,.xsewW,,w 'WW 'f 'M 1 ' Practice, Practice, Practice, and then there is more practice! Inter-club council members found out as they prepared for the Inter-Club Party. The Siamese twins joined at the nose? No, it was only a game at the BSU party. HK members really came out in full force for home coming decorations. Here is the Old Woman in The Shoe, their contribution. Winning first place on home coming decorations was Mistress Mary, made by the YE social club. Hanging of the Green, the Christmas party eieryone looks forward to brings vacation time at little closer and deepens the true meaning of Clirist s birth Year Jim Esely, playing the role of satan, tempts Eve played by Diann Harris, to eat the forbidden fruit, This was the first Sock and Baskin day at OBU. Uses of drama and College Player neo- phytes were introduced. To a student this is the ideal rfhapel program. Two hours a week, eight hours a month, and no over time pay! A good leap year aetiirity is eating, and here some of the girls bring the other half to Mem- orial dining hall for a special dinner. John Casey seems to be having difficulty directing his play even though he has all the facilities in the drama studio, Plays were a class project. An hour that's free, they are few and far between, but Peggy Langley and John Hamrick find time for enlarging some OBU friendships. Weaving was offered for the first time as a class this year, and girls will soon be wearing material they have made themselves. Charlie Poor finds the library is the easiest place to study and tries to make it a daily stop. There may be another Einstein in this room! If there is he will have had a good class lab. Looks! like nine weeks test are just aronnd the corner, or is this the real thing? Day Every night Mr. Firestone, the night watchinan, begins his nightly rounds of the cainpns, He keeps the night watch for the entire cainpns, Here he locks one of the doors in Shawnee hall. Anne Bolt experienced the thrill of being Yahnseh editor when she was presented flowers at the Yahnsh Queen contest. Boots', Lee has produced hundreds of student publications at the OBU Press. Three gangsters from Mrs MCThing Jim Poage, Gaylon Dighton, and James Craig make plans to call a meeting. You say Jimis foot itches! Extra The study of art has brought many students to OBU, We see Arlene Noble studying some drawings as captured by our photographer. Theta Alpha Phi presented a Christmas play that will be remembered for the love it created. This sene shows Merris Bunyard and Darrell Baergen telling Kenneth Fountain about the big bad robber. Diann Harris, Dick Brand, Miss Mary Long, and Mr. Granville Mays look with great admiration at some books in OBU's special collection. W H .v Extra curricular means different things to different people. This young man is studying. But I imagine Don Tibbetts can tell you the score between the Giants and the Yankees. Curricular Teachers find their families fun to be with and use the spare moments they can in happy activity. Don't know what Jack Frost said, but must have been a real leg slapperv to make Mary Ann Hunter laugh so much. Making big plans to live in Kerr deormitory in September, Kathy Speak describes her room to Mary Ann Hunter. The caps they proudly earned were presented in a capping ceremony. Those priu- ileged to wear their caps are: Gail Jackman, Naoini Cole, Carol Hardiinan, Carol Ragland, Elaine English, Dawn Bryant, Glenda Foster, Ruth Ann Worthington, Mary Ellen Witherspoon, and Ruth Eudaley. Ladies In White Music is a quiet way of relaxing and proves good entertainment to these girls at Wesley. Do you really think I could someday be a nurse? Is the question each girl thinks as she looks at the clean starched caps and uniforins. Nursing takes paper work also, as these girls found out. -wmvm NwW.M--- M..

It's Christmas and Fourth of July all year round in the offwe of Memorial dormitory, that is when the postman comes, Mr. Walter Niles, is easily recognized by the girls and he always has a welcoming committee. As can be seen he has many a helping hand this Saturday morning. Letters from home and food are the life lines of any college student. Mr. Niles must know this for he makes two trips a day to the campus. The kindness is greatly missed when he is on vacation and there is only one delivery. Joan Roberson, Mary Sue Dur- ham, and Barbara Sanders from three different social clubs 'work on wreaths for the Hanging of the Green. The wonderful night your crown- ed queen, Sue Bilbrey will re- member this night, the night she was crowned KL football qu-een. Messiah soloists rank high in the opinion of those who heard the Messiah presented this year in University Auditorium.
