A. £. 9xuiaM President, Olivet College : $ ' - ' ,h ' w Wi 0 iifi  ' QpX On Sunday, November 18, at 2:0 0 a. m., the administration building was destroyed by fire ; but Olivet College lived on. The following morning, church services were held in the tabernacle ; and classes were continued on Monday and throughout the remainder of the year in improvised classrooms. That fatal night did not see the destruction of Olivet ; the real Olivet was not and could not be de- stroyed by lire; for the real Olivet does nol dwell within buildings, but is an in- tangible substance living in the hearts of her faculty, Students, alumni, and friends.

T While this year ' s senior class has the unusual distinction of being the last at the old campus and the first to be graduated from the new campus, its real distinction lies in the fact that every member of the class is a Christian. Among those who are planning to give their full time to Christian service are four called missionaries, sev- eral preachers, and a few song evangelists. Resides its good spiritual record., this class has done well in scholastic activities. Eight of its members are in the Honor Soci- ety, constituting more than one-fourth of that group. In extracurricular affairs, various members of the class have starred. The boys ' basketball team has won the championship in class tournaments three out of four years. In debate, dramatics, and music outstanding work has been done. The accomplishment of which the seniors are most proud is the class unity they have attained. Only by their spirit of amity and unanimity were they able to accomplish class projects such as their trip east in October. Not a little of their success, however, has been due to the wise counsel of their sponsor, C. S. McClain. FRED CHALFANT, Treas. DALE MOORE, Pres. MARY PURINTON, Sec. HAROLD SHROUT, V.

This group has been led in its endeavor by Professor and Mrs. Larsen, and their assist- ants, Gerald Greenlee, Ray Moore, Wendell Wellman, and Esther Schulz. T T iaxto Our school embraces a fine piano department, directed by well qualified in- structors. The piano department affords interested persons the opportunity to study tiu- finest music of the masters, past and present, in an atmosphere of Chris- tian refinement. MdAm ' b fiano Important, not only as a means of instruction in music, but also as a valuable factor in normal training, are the children ' s piano classes, which give music stu- dents an opportunity to observe piano instruction methods and to gain some expe- rience in practice teaching.

Outstanding programs included an old-fashioned closed-class meet- ing, request programs, N. O. P. S. (Nazarene Old People ' s Society), and a missionary pageant, Voices From Other Lands . GAapeC Interesting speakers and talented musicians have added spice and zest to the chapel services. Dr. Howe and Dr. Parrott delivered many interesting, helpful, and witty sermonettes. The Student Council programs each Friday, usually con- ducted by students of Olivet, were especially interesting. Varying the regular chapel routine were many out-of-town speakers, such as Rev. W. W. Tink from Canada; the Wolpe brothers, with their Italian accent and thousand-dollar ac- cordion ; Rev. U. E. Harding, who is seeing the world through someone else ' s eyes ; Dr. Williams, our general superintendent; and a negro quartet from Prentiss, Mississippi. Kesjiv-alb Showers of blessings became a reality to the stu- dents of ( )livet during the two revivals conducted by Rev. Hardy A. Powers and Rev. Harold Volk. Rev. Rowers conducted the last revival service ever held in the chapel, and main times the altar was lined with seekers. Under the forceful, dynamic messages of Rev. Volk many souls also renewed their vows to God, for the insi lime experienced the unspeakable joy of sal- vation, or deepened their resolves to serve Mini. REV.

Financially, the society is in the best condition that it has enjoyed for several years, and in spite of little gain numerically, the spiritual condition is good. During the illness of the president, Marie Oyer, the society was under the leader- ship of Frances Rossman the first semester and of Anna Morris the second semes- ter. Visits from Julia Morris, district president, and from Mrs. Shirley and Rev. Birchard, missionaries on furlough, have inspired the members to greater effort. 9Aajy,eA Wheeling Prayer meetings held each evening at 6:30 have brought together a large group of students to commune with God. These services were a great blessing to all those who attended. Many young people received definite experiences of salvation and others received light and encouragement that enabled them to go deeper and further with Christ. Students and faculty members all cooperated in presenting a Scripture lesson each evening. The regular Wednesday night prayer meetings were also a time of spiritual revival. Here students testified of their blessings and were in turn helped by the testimonies of others. OAqmuqxriiwik Student Qauticit Dale Moore... . President Dorothy Austin..

In this manner thousands throughout the nation were introduced to Olivet ' s finest musical organization, the Orpheus Choir, consisting of thirty-two trained voices under the direction of Walter B. Rarsen. The itinerary of the choir this year included concerts in Dayton, Cincinnati, Richmond, Indianapolis, Danville, Decatur, Springfield, Kankakee, Paris, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Bernice, and Racine. The climax will be reached in June when the Orpheus Choir will make its appearance before the General Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This year ' s repertoire included such anthems as Spirit of God , Nordman ; Go to Dark Gethsemane , Noble; Te Deum in G , Williams; Breathe on Me Mreath of God , Thompson; Beautiful Savior , Christiansen; and others. Among the gospel songs were such favorites as How Can I Help But Rove Him? , For You I Am Praying , A Sinner Dike Me , Softly and Tenderly , and My Savior ' s Rove . Negro spirituals included were Ride on, King |esus , and I ( iot Religion . This year marked the ninth consecutive season for this excellent musical group, winch is rapidly gaining recognition as one of the leading choral groups in the Middle West. The steady improvement in the quality of the work done by the choir may be attributed firsl to the untiring effort of its able director and sec- ond lo the fail that each year the choir numbers among its members more highly trained and experienced singers, each oi whom testifies to a definite experience of salval ion. COMMENDABLE might well be the word with which to describe the work- done by these eight young men during the past year. Their songs, readings, and testimonies have inspired audiences in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wiscon- sin, Missouri and Iowa. Our best wishes go with the Orpheus and Apollo quartets as they enter their summer ' s work in the interest of Olivet College.

Following our usual policy, each member of the squad was given experience in intercollegiate debate during the year. The entire squad or parts thereof par- ticipated in the following tournaments : Normal at Illinois State Normal Univer- sity, Normal, Illinois ; Eastern State Teachers ' College, Charleston, Illinois ; Prin- cipia College, Elsah, Illinois ; Manchester-Huntington, the largest invitational de- bate tournament in the world, Whitewater, Wisconsin; College of St. Thomas, St. Paul, Minnesota ; and the Illinois Intercollegiate Debate League tournament, Fake Forest, Illinois. Out of a total of ninety-nine decision debates for the season on the Pi Kappa Delta question of American isolation, Olivet ' s teams won sixty-six. First place was awarded to Hiram J. McLendon in the discussion contest at the Whitewater tournament. J. William Fee won second place in individual rating in the Normal tournament in a field of over one hundred fifty debaters, and also in the White- water tournament in a field of twenty colleges. Fee and McFendon won an en- graved Certificate of Excellence for placing second in the Championship division of I he Normal tournament. ' I hey were undefeated in four rounds of debate at Charleston and four at Whitewater. They placed second in the Illinois Intercollegiate tournament. Normalee Phillips and Fois Kendall won five out of six de- bates at the Manchester tournament, and duplicated this record at the Illinois state tournament. Fred Reedy and Marvin Taylor won Uvv out of six at Manchester and four out of six in the State tournament. Counting all four teams, Olivet tied Wheaton Col- lege for third place in the State tournament at Fake Forest. Thai the ( )livet debaters were able to win two-thirds of all their debates, in spite oi the fact that our entire library was burned ai the beginning of the season, speaks well for their industry and resourcefulness, and the efficiency of their coach.

WOMEN ' S DEBATE SQUAD Kendall, Albert, Hower ' hillips, Harris, Schwada, Scherrer MEN ' S DEBATE SQUAD Evans, Taylor, Somerville, Steininger Reedy, McEendon, Eee, Moore Bund This organization with its optimistic Never give up attitude, has helped spur the students to a greater realization of school spirit this year. The band has coop- erated with its leader, Mr. Harold Fitzgerrel, in helping to make the season one of the best since its organization. Sousa ' s marches, Goldman ' s On the Mall , Saprauack ' s Atlantic Suite , novelty numbers, and other selections have com- prised the repertoire of the band for the year. OAcheAtka The beautiful, soothing strains of Tschaikowsky ' s Andante Cantabile from the fifth symphony has been the theme and soulful expression of the orchestra this vear. Under the direction of Mrs. H. H. Price, the orchestra was presented in concert, April 9. The programme, rendered with artistic color and style, con- sisted of selections from the works of Beethoven, Haydn, and Tschaikowsky, and was climaxed by the orchestra ' s playing the Poet and Peasant Overture by Franz von Suppe. ft oJL $ ■ pguranasEj n 1  The Women ' s Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Gerald Greenlee and ac- companied by Miss Dorothy Ten Eyck, has enjoyed the singing of both secular and sacred music. They appeared during the spring revival, singing sacred num- bers such as Jesus Has Loved Me , and at the student recital with such songs as An Old Violin and Brahm ' s Lullaby . IMometi ' i, 9£ee 9£ e ft : uxj, - aWi n r f gk .p The Men ' s Glee Club met once weekly and sang under the direction of Ray Moore, with Miss Geraldine Spangler as accompanist. They heartily enjoyed singing semi-classical numbers such as, With a Smile , and St out-Hearted Men ; and aided in the church program with hymns. Mt juA The Art Club evolved this year under the inspiration of Dorothy Austin, who has filled the position of president since its organization. Meeting ' s, held twice a month, aimed both to cultivate a greater appreciation for art and to enable the members to do some creative work. In January a delegation visited the Chi- cago Art Institute and saw the one-hundred-fifty million dollar exhibit of Italian masterpieces, which had been displayed the previous summer at the San Fran- cisco Exhibition. Jsthjt ?Ae,a,cJh£Ab ' KicU The Preachers ' Kids, believing that they could better their grievances more readily as an organized unit, instead of individually, organized this year into the P. K. Club, under the presidency of Ray H. Moore, and the joint sponsorship of Rev. and Mrs. K. S. White. Immediately prior to the Christmas holidays, this group sponsored a taffy-pull at Purinton ' s Cottage on Lake Vermilion. JAe, R iaM, B-and The Brass Band, a tem- porary organization led by Prof. L. H. Howe, helped to solicit donations for Olivet College during the campaign for $10,000, which was carried on in Danville during the latter part of October. 1939. The Campus Ghost, a daily news bulletin, was edited this year by Lois P ' aythe Alexander Kendall. The Ghost serves as a means of bringing announce- ments and campus news before the student body. Thanks go to Mr. Glenn Ames, who built a new home for the Ghost after its old haunt was destroved bv the fire. The Olivet Collegian, a quarterly publication, edited by Prof. Laurence H. Howe, serves as a means of conveying news of the school to the various home churches on the educational zone, interesting prospective students in Olivet, and distributing news of the Alumni Association.

The Trojans were victorious, in spite of the fact that they took the field with two stalwart regulars, Snyder and Buster, missing from the line-up. This season was featured by a few very fat batting averages, close scores, and some good pitching by Spross, Spartan ; Watson, Indian ; and Price, Trojan.

C, New York City, Eastern Nazarene College, Niagara Falls, Hamilton, Ontario, and Detroit. Enjoyable, because it was for all of us a dream come true. An adventure in cooperation, because only by working together harmoniously were we able to accomplish what we did. emx i Xup fymU Ji $ ve,aJlc The juniors called it their sneak ; the seniors had another name for it. At midnight, the juniors slipped out and piled in the cars. After a cheery send-off bv the suspicious seniors, they were off. At Indianapolis they chartered a bus and headed for points south. To the class president, Hiram J., the high point of the trip was seeing Man O ' War at Lexington. The class spent the night at Asbury College. The next day ' s scenes of interest were High Bridge and Mam- moth Cave. Early in the morning of November 18, they returned to Olivet in time to lament over the smoking ruins of the administration building.

Since it was a Valentine-Leap Year party, the girls acted as escorts to their dates , who were determined by drawing the names. Various games and quizzes formed the evening ' s entertainment. XPie uruak ' enLa. ' i Ranquel The Junior-Senior Banquet was held at Hotel Mudlavia, Kramer, Indiana, April 1940. Although an over-cast sky prevented the weather from conforming to the theme of the banquet, Stars, the evening was a very enjoyable one. The out- standing event of the evening was organ music during the meal, played on a pipe organ especially installed for the occasion. The program also included after-din- ner speeches by the class presidents, sponsors, and Dr. Howe ; a reading by Bob Condon ; and musical selections by Vernita Tink, Gerald Greenlee, and a trio composed of Dale Moore, Ray Moore, and Otis Bell, accompanied by Byron Carmony. Qacutty Reception A long receiving line of imposing, dignified professors and their wives did not prevent the student body from enjoying the faculty reception, which was held in the Chapel during the first week of October and served as a grand mixer . The entertainment was provided by the students with Dr. Howe officiating. Even Johnny added his bit by serving ice cream and cookies to the whole group. The reception was a gala event, and even the professors enjoyed it, in spite of having to shake the hands of more than 350 students.
