The Ambassador Quartet, composed of Jack Proctor, Keith Powell, George Baker, and Ted Griffin, will be the school ' s representatives at the Iowa District Camp Meeting. They will tour several districts and visit some of the assemblies. Summer Representatives Under the supervision of J. W. Swearengen, Field Secretary, Olivet promotes an extensive program of stu- dent recruitment. During the summer months faculty members and musical groups travel over the entire edu- cational zone representing Olivet. This summer Rev. Swearengen with the help of four faculty members and three musical groups will attend youth conventions, tour various districts, and visit district ass emblies. They will present concerts and school serv- ices and will talk personally with prospective students— a most important part of the student recruitment pro- gram. As college representatives they enable pastors and laymen to see and hear what the college is doing and how it is progressing in various ways. The Carolaires, Beth Hatcher, Marilyn Kremer, Roberta Cosner, and Lee Bolland will be singing in several assemblies and youth conventions and various churches. The Crusaders, Ovid Young, Darel Grothaus, Roger Kennedy and Roger McMurrin will be youth work- ers at the Central Ohio District Camp Meeting. This group will also tour districts and visit youth con- ventions and district assemblies. 26

France After two days at the Brussels World Fair (below, right), the tour crossed into France, for four days at Paris. What a variety of activities to keep one busy— the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, the Sorbonne, the Metro! With home base in the Latin Quarter on the Left Bank, the group ventured forth to conquer the city. Memories: the 140 franc cup of coffee, warm cokes, the sunlight in the Sainte Chapelle, Dr. Bangs ' fractured French, LeCorbusier ' s unconventional chapel at Ronchamps, some unconventional signs, continental break- fasts (coffee, roll, marmalade). This is not an Olivet student. It is a gargoyle overlooking Paris from the tower of the Cathedral of Notre Dame, one of the Parisian attractions on the tour. Italy The Italian portion of the tour included Milan, Pisa, Siena, Rome, Florence, and Venice. The weather was warm, the men were friendly, and the food ivas good. The art treas- ures were unsurpassed. Venice was beyond expectations. Na- zarenes in Florence provided a warm welcome to their city. The group found in Assist, Italy, a 12th century atmos- phere reminiscent of the times of its hero, St. Francis. 25

Fall Before autumn ' s first leaves fall, Olivet ' s campus is alive with activities. From the first September days on through spring, the student is caught in the inevitable whirl of college life. Class elections, football under lights, adjustment to studying, and social activities color the busy days, creat- ing in the student various moods and emotions. The student enters the new school year anticipating the best, but the outcome realized is contingent upon the student himself. 27 L
