GREER .if . fOh€ A small group of holiness educational pioneers hewed from a blackjack grove their ideal of a Nazarene College. The prayers and dreams of yesterday were incorporated into the frames of two small buildings. Today, the results of these efforts may be seen in the seven perma- nent buildings and numerous temporary structures of our campus. Monuments to our forefathers, however, are not chiseled from material structures but are moulded from the character of young lives . . . Following the pattern set by Christ as He increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man, our Beth- any Peniel College of today is striving to achieve in the lives of its students a four- fold purpose— mental, physical, spiritual, and cultural development. Thus, clues to the real riches of well-rounded living are in the possibilities of campus activities. Guide-posts that point to successful fu- tures are in the words that fall from the lips of professors and in the principles which were ingrained into this school with the first brick laid. mono KILLED IN ACTION Carter, Reginald Corley, Robert Hicks, Robert Newsome.

Today he is the grand old man of Bethany-Peniel College. For fifty years Dr. McConnell lent his talents to journalism. During this time he established a religious paper which later be- came the Herald of Holiness. Dr. McConnell ' s autobiography has been published only this year— the seventh book he has written. The Church of the Nazarene has found in him one of its most faithful laymen. Not only was he one of the charter members of the Churcli, but he was one of the seven men who met to establish Peniel College. At the age of fift} ' -seven Dr. McConnel! ac- cepted a professorship in Bethany-Peniel College. For twenb,-five years he helped to mold the lives of Nazarene youth. He taught religion, English, history, and logic. Professor Dobson, Miss Lundy, arid Mrs. Lundy were English students of his; he taught Professor Floyd histon, ' , and Professors McClung, Snowbarger, and Shannon were in his classes of religion. More than twent}- Nazarene chaplains in the recent war had Dr. McConnell for a professor. Dr. McConnell has been a member of every General Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene. For a number of years he was a member of the Ceneral Board and ser ed as Chairman of the De- partment of Foreign Missions. Even though he has passed his eighty-fifth birthday, Dr. McConnell is still active in Christian service as Sundav School teacher of the largest class in the local church and treasurer of the Western Oklahoma District. The students and faculty affectionately call him Uncle Charlie. Wherever students of his day and today are found, the influence of our beloved friend is calling men to Christ. As long as Bethany- Peniel College shall last, the name of Dr. C. A. McConnell will have a prominent place on its roll of honor. friend of youth a 9 I 10 DR. C. A.

In the training of growing persons for fellowship with God, for the achievement of Christlike character, and for a life of exalted and sacrificial ser ' ice. our Christian teachers must be taught of God through a victorious faith in Jesus Christ. As teachers they find their rich reward in their obedience to the Great Teacher. Our leaders are men and women who have the ability to assemble and guide and control groups for the achieve- ment of definite objectives. In dealing with Christian education, our leaders organize the work; classify and em- phasize the aims or goals that should be sought; outline the methods that should be used; plan and earn, ' forward the curricular agencies; teach and direct the classes; co- operate with other leaders; and secure united and pro- gressive effort in all departments of the educational enterprise. Following humbly in the footsteps of the Great Leader and Commander of our most holy faith, our leaders gov- ern with strength and graciousncss, and guide with wisdom, llie divine service and the sacred privilege of Christian religious education find here their inspiring initiative and their sublime culumination. LEADERS IN DEVELOPMENT 16 BOARD OF TRUSTEES Bethany-Peniel College is governed by a Board of Trustees elected by the ten districts of the West-Central Educational Zone. Although this group is seen en masse only once each year by the student body, yet it would be impossible for any student to fail to sense their great concern for the spiritual and material welfare of the college. It is these men who have labored diligently to find the best administrative officials and faculty members possible to give the necessary Christian leadership to our Nazarene young people. One of the most recent actions of the Board has been the authorization of the $300,000 expansion program that will add six new buildings to the present campus. The outstanding manner in which these men have encouraged their home districts to meet their apportionment of this great program has been ample demonstration of their sincerity of purpose and resolve to give Bethany-Peniel College students the best in Christian education. A look at the personnel of the Board of Trustees re- veals some interesting facts. Seventeen of the members are Alumni of this College. Four members, B. F. Neeley, G. M. Akin, J. F. Roberts, and W. A. Carter, have served on the Board for twenty years or more. The senior mem- ber is B. F. Neeley, who was first elected in 1908. Rev. W. A. Carter is completing his fourth year as chair- man of the Board. He has been a pastor and superintend ent on this Educational Zone for twenty-five years, and a director of the college since 1926.

Finch is that man. With his leadership the College is making rapid strides in increased usefulness through a $300,000 Expansion Program, tlie development of a thorough and effective curriculum, and a more fervent spiritual emphasis. Having been bom in a log cabin in Ohio, and having enjoyed the rigor of the homestead life of Nebraska. Dr. Finch journeyed to Illinois and then to California to gain his education. He graduated from Pasadena College with both an A. B. and B. D. degree. At Pasadena he served the student body as President of the Student Council and editor of the La Sierra— student year-book. In 1941 B.P.C. conferred on him the Doctor of Divinity degree and in 1945 he was elected to the Who ' s Who of America. Dr. Finch has served the Church of the Nazarene, which he joined when there were onlv 16,000 members, in a number of im- portant positions. Following pastorates in the First Churches of Grand Rapids and Lansing. Michigan, and W ichita. Kansas, he was elected to the Superin tendency of the Kansas District. He has ser ' ed on the Boards of Trustees of Olivet. Brcscc. and Beth- any-Peniel Colleges, and for four years was a member of the General N.Y.P.S. Council. Dr. Finch ' s hobby, photography, is a source of great enjoyment to him and in turn has nuidc possible the kodachromc photog- raphy in this ARROW. .Mtliougli he has been our President for only two years, we feel that he is really one of us. He joins in our work and our fun, our joys and our sorrows. As President Finch leads on to greater mental. |)hysical. spiritual, and cultural develop- ment Bethany Pcniel College marches ahead! [namsfir; 19 y FACULTY students and faculty alike agree that PROFESSOR E. y . HALL Dean of Student Life, is the man for the job. k ' A Vi spite of the fact that he has handled this unsavory job ' for six years, he is one of the most popular profs on the j campus. He can say, No, and make you like it. jy The Science and Education Departments claim all of his teaching time. However, his classes, sprinkled gen- erously with the student ' s every day problems, keep his life from becoming routine. _,„.tiEStf?burricular activities, such as Mayor of Bethany, Secretary ' of the Western Oklahoma District Advisory Board, and teacher of the Junior-Senior Sunday School class, keep him from having too many idle hours. A Texan by birth and heritage, MRS. CAROL LUNDY has an outstanding frankness found lacking in most Texans— she admits that there are other states in the union. She received her M.A. in English from the Universit} ' of Texas and is now working on her M.A. in Speech at the Universib, ' of Oklahoma. She has taught at B.P.C. for seven years. Her three children, her hobby, fill most of her leisure time. In her idle moments, however, she loves to read books of poetry, to travel, and to write short-stories, some of which have been published. Mrs. Lundy inteqjrets poetr)- with a characteristic uniqueness. She has clever ideas, is charming, and is a lovely person to know. m -ti With his many achievements, his innumerable capabil- ities, DR. WILSON LaDUE gives a never-ending con- tribution of brilliant mind and fine judgment to our College. His duties as professor of French and Spanish do not limit his extra-curricular life. He loves to occupy his leisure moments with gardening. photograph -. good classical music, and reading. One of his chief delights is his family. B.P.C. is honored to have on its facult) ' Dr. LaDue, who belongs to Phi Kappa Epsilon and is recognized in Who ' s Who in Ciiicago and Illinois. and Who ' s Who of American Scholars. He is editor of A Bible Schohi m Bible Lands. 20 PROFESSOR new-corn wishful classes an the [ui i People ' s pi but cha se his scholar Epsilon MRS. ALICE GRILL says that she can sympathize with Bethany collegians, for she too had Dr. and Mrs. LaDue and Prof. Spalding as instructors. While attending Greenville College, Mrs. Grill edited the yearbook, and won the sports manship award all four years. She graduat- ed with majors in music and education. On B.P.G. campus she is one of the favorites in the class room as well as in extra-curricular activities. With her husband she has been co-sponsor of the Glass of ' 48 for the past two years. Her piano students are always prepared for her frequent question, Well, how ' s the practice this week? However, they are convinced that she is really not so tough when they see her on the ball diamond supervising the Girls ' Athletics. In his first year on the campus, PROFESSOR JACK MOORE has distinguished himself as a teacher of philos- ophy, member of the Administrative Council, and sponsor of the RevieJJe Echo. Starting out life as a citizen of Danville, Illinois, Prof. Moore received his education in Canada, Massachusetts, Illinois, and North Carolina. In May of 1946, the Divinity School of Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, will confer on him the degree of Bachelor of Divinity. Before taking up the duties of a professor, Mr. Moore sened capably in pastorates in Lawrenceville, Illinois; Bennettsville. South Carolina; and Greensboro and Raleigh, North Carolina. 21 FACULTY Having found that her husband and her four daughters —her Little Women — did not take all of her time, MRS. RUTH TAYLOR has taught private piano lessons for the past fifteen years. Her charming personality and genuine interest in others has made her a fa orite in any group of which she is a member. Aside from her teaching, she gives valuable leadership in such religious circles as: Sunday School teacher, First Vice-President of the Western Oklahoma District W.F.M.S., and President of local Business and Professional Women ' s Chapter of the W.F.M.S. She is assistant organist of the College Church and for five years has been organist for the Merritt Funeral Home. Acting Dean of Liberal Arts this year has been PRO- FESSOR C. HAROLD RIPPER. His wife claims that he is slow— never in a burn, ' ; he has not been slow, how- ever, in gaining prominent recognition on the campus in the four vears of his professorship. At present he holds memoership in the Pi Gamma Mu, Honor Society in Social Science, and in the Oklahoma Academy of Science. His main field of teaching is psychology, but he also in- structs the Christian Doctrine classes. He has an aversion to onions, but he will eat them when he can not gracefully refuse. Tlie Student Council has found in him a er - enthusiastic and inspiring sponsor. Whether at a chess board, in the City Council, on the street corner, or in the classroom. Prof. Ripper is a favorite. • To know MISS ALICE LEWIS is to love her. She began her vocal career in 1915 by taking private voice lessons in Chicago. From 1916 to 1942. .she was a member of the nationallv known Aeolian and Edward ' s quartets. Following a tragic automobile accident in the latter year, which caused the disbanding of the quartet. Miss Lewis became Director of Music at First Church in Hutchinson. Kan.sas. Since coming to B.P.C. in October. 1944, she has directed various vocal groups and taught private voice lessons. She is also ven active in the local church work, directing the junior Church, teaching a FreshuKui Sunday School Class, and singing in church services and revivals. In each detail of her busy, useful life she is truly Christlike. 22 FACULTY MRS. ELIZABETH WILLIS, a native of Cherokee Counh ' , Texas, attended Bcthany-Peniel Acadeni ' and later received her B. A. degree from B.P.C. and her degree in Librar}- Science from tlic University of Oklahoma. After eight years as librarian in the Amarillo Pnblic Librar} ' and three in Ada, Mrs. Willis was selected by the administration to snper ise the College library-. Besides her duties as librarian, she is treasurer of the Bethany Church of the Nazarene and the Oklahoma Librar - Association. She has made man ' friends here because of her abilit to get along with everyone. You may recognize her by her little girl smile. ' ■■■A One of the most popular members of the facult ' is our topical man about town, PROFESSOR CHESTER C. CRILL— Dean of Fine Arts and teacher of private voice lessons. Each ear he conducts the mass Christmas Chorus and directs the A Cappella Choir. His students say that the funn - faces he makes in directing give them added inspiration to sing. As co-sponsor with Mrs. Crill of the Sophomore Class, his aptitude for getting things accom- plished in an ever cheerful manner forms a pattern his students desire to follow. Professor Crill ' s outstanding abilitv has recently been gi en unusual recognition by his being selected to member- ship in the National Association of Teachers of Singing, in which there are only 1 50 members in the United States.

Mrs. Greer is active in religious work. On Sundavs she faithfully fills her place in the local church choir. She is al so Chairman of the Districi Committee of the ' estern Oklahoma Y.W.F.M.S. w 23 FACULTY A cherry, Howdy, brethren, in a marked southern drawl will greet vou as you enter the office of the man from Georgia ' -PROFESSOR FRED FLOYD. In his classroom you will be sure to hear about the continuity of history and the five types of personal it} ' . You will find him to be vitally interested in the religious organiza- tions of the campus— especially the Prayer and Fasting League of which he is sponsor. His coast-to-coast education, consisting of a B.S.E. degree from Mercer University in Georgia; an A.B. from Pasadena College, California; and a B.D. from Vanderbuilt University, Tennessee, enables him amply to qualify as Chairman of the Histon, ' Department. Although MISS MARIANA SEARS was bom in Beth- any, she went to Tulsa University for her college work. During her undergraduate days, she taught piano lessons on the side, and was president of Sigma Alpha Iota- women ' s professional music organization. Her teaching activities at B.P.C. combine a generous portion of private piano lessons and English classes. One of her favorite pastimes is writing birthday jingles for members of her family, but she doesn ' t show them to anyone. She also has an intense interest in photography —when she can find the time and equipment. Being a very industrious person. Miss Sears plans to add an A. B. degree in English to her intellectual accomp- lishments. I f. • i Sk . • PROFESSOR D. R. DANSKIN, Chairman of the Com- mercial Department, is especially fond of chocolate, calls his wife Bird, feasts on the news, prefers making out plans for his classes to eating, and tries to grow h air on the top of his head— without much success. Having inherited a business-turn from his storekeeper fatiicr. Prof. Danskin has continued his interest in figures througii vcars in State Colleges in Nebraska, and for more than a decade of teaching in Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Everywhere he has been he has contributed to the leadership of the local religious institutions. At present he is Treasurer of the Bethany Navigators Society. 24 .-xiiei ' FACULTY REV. W. D. McGRAW. JR., Business Manager and Christian gentleman, is known best on the campus for his pleasanat smile and graceful knack of saying, Money please! Following a number of years in the ministry of the Church of the Nazarene as both pastor and district super- intendent, Rev. McGraw was elected to his present position in February of 1945 . The Senior Class has expressed its sincere regard for the man of ten thousand jokes by electing him as its sponsor. It has found in him one who is kind and con- siderate and an inspiration in all of the varying activities of a graduating class. MRS. MARY FLICK, a home-town girl who made good, teaches in the piano department, likes to feed people — especially her husband—, enjoys gardening, prefers to play duets with Willis, and appreciates an opportunity to take care of little kiddies. Following her graduation from B.P.C. with a B.F.A. degree in 1940, Mrs. Flick taught music in the public schools in Spencer and Ringling, Oklahoma, for four years. In 1945, during the commencement season, she was married to Mr. Willis Flick, who at that time was an orchestra leader in the Na y. Mrs. Flick started taking piano lessons when she was only seven years old. Her interest in music increased to the extent that many times her mother would have to make her stop practicing. Having been influenced bv his older sister to follow a musical career, PROFESSOR DUANE SMITH began studying do, re, me, fa, sol, in high school. Later he was privileged to study voice under the private tutorage of three outstanding men: George A. Murphy, noted author and opera singer in Grand Rapids, Michigan; D. A. Clippinger, author of numerous textbooks and former President of the Chicago Council of Teachers of Singing; and Stanley Baughman, dean of Michigan organists. Following ten years of voice teaching in Grand Rapids, concert and radio work (he was a research engineer dur- ing the war), Mr. Smith came to B.P.C. last fall to super- vise the men ' s singing groups and give private lessons. 25 FACULTY After having ser cd the CJliurch of the Nazarene as nilssionan, ' to Japan; Assistant General Secrctar ' , Depart- ment of Church Schools, and Director of Leadership Training; as missionary to Peru; and as pastor, REV. C. H. WIMAN returned to Bethany to become registrar of our College. Last year he received recognition in Who ' s Who of Religion for his outstanding service. Professor Wiman, connoisseur of Spanish foods, mixes a dry humor, hot pepper, tortillas, American cheerfulness, and Peruvian hand-work to make manv delightful enter- tainments for students and friends. His home reflects a Japanese neatness, a South American friendliness, and an all-American hospitality. Having started her public career at the age of twelve by playing the piano for a revival meeting in San Antonio, Texas, MRS. WILLO MAY BERESFORD is continuing her interest in music by completing her sixth ear as music instructor at B.P.C. When she does not have the op- portunity to play the works of Chopin and Beethoven, she prefers to work crossword puzzles. In 1938 she climaxed a very successful romance by correspondence by marrying a B.P.C. alumnus, Dan Beres- ford, who entered the Navy in 1942. When the duties of taking care of her young son, Kenneth Wayne, decrease, she plans to start a collection of recordings. PROFESSOR RAYMOND McCLUNG won the hearts of the Frosh, whom he sponsors, on initiation day by participating in all of the unpleasantries dished out by the important sophomores. His teaching duties are divid- ed between the English and Speech Departments. Wliile attending B.P.C. in his undergraduate days, Prof. McClung worked in the library and edited the ARROW. His favorite sports are hunting, fishing, and tennis. He is an ordained minister, and previous to returning to his Alma Mater, he served as pastor of the First Church of the Nazarene in Fort Worth, Texas. On Sundays he takes opportunity to preach in neighboring churches and directs the Navigators Society in Bethany. 26 FACULTY Last September MRS. MARY WATSON LaDUE came to our campus and immediately won a place in the hearts of her students with her bright, sincere smile. The members of the Sophomore Sunday School Class, of which Mrs. LaDue is co-teacher with her husband, are always thrilled to be invited to the LaDue home for an evening of culture. One who knocks on her door at opportune moments sees the entire LaDue family studying around the table; or sees Mrs. LaDue on another of those dates with Dr. LaDue— having candle-light tea in old English style. Mrs. LaDue knows how to make the common happenings of life surprisingly colorful events. PROFESSOR WAYNE THORNE, the new band in- structor and the highly esteemed sponsor of the 1946 ARROW, rightfully deserves his title, The King of the Trombone. Early in life his musical talents became evident, and in high school he directed the school band. However, Prof is not a one-talent man. Preaching is one of his main interests. Churches over the Educational Zone have learned to love and appreciate his ministry in week-end meetings and youth conventions. Singspira- tions are his specialty. His vibrant personality and con- secrated life have endeared him to all who know him. The Class of ' 45 is honored to have one of its number, MISS GOLDIE PHILLIPS, on the faculty this year. After receiving her A.B. degree from Southwestern Louis- iana Institute— with honors, she came to B.P.C. where she received her Th. B. last summer— with honors. Besides her duties of teaching the special students English, history, and theol-ogy, she has served as a member of the Faculty Committee on Social and Extra-Curricular activities. It seems that she has threatened several times to start a column in a newspaper giving advice on love affairs. Although she is generally very modest, she likes to have her picture taken. Her only aversion is having to live on the third story of a building. 27 k . - dJEt 099 , ff FACULTY Professor BOYD shannon, chemists instruc- tor, was the first to receive an A.B. degree in Chemistry at B.P.C. Following his graduation in 1932, he had a very successful career as a commercial chemist. As a result of a definite call to Christian scr ice received two years ago, Mr. Shannon resigned his position as General Superintend- ent of the Rock Island Refiner} ' in Indianapolis, Indiana, and came to the campus as professor in the fall of 1945. Wliile teaching at Mangum, Oklahoma, he received distinction by coaching the girls ' basketball team, which won the State Championship. Sunday School work is his hobby. He preached his first sermon at a Youth for Christ rally in Indianapolis. Early in the morning or late at night are the most ideal times for practice according to the opinion of MISS IVALEE BOLERJACK. piano instructor. Although of- fered a scholarship to the Kansas Cit - Conservator, ' of Music while in her senior year of high school. Miss Boler- jack preferred to make B.P.C. her Alma Mater, and she received her B.F.A. degree in 1943. She received her Master ' s Degree in piano, with a minor in organ, from the University of Oklahoma in the spring of 1945. Miss Bolerjack ' s extra-curricular interests include the strenuous activities of bicycling, playing tennis, and row- ing, as well as the more quiet pastimes of crocheting and reading. One of the most interesting characters on the campus is PROFESSOR WAYNE SPALDING, Chairman of the Piano Department. Following two years study in France and Germany, Prof gave recitals in Munich and Paris. Returning to America, he received Master degrees in both music and language. Prof. Spalding is one of the faculty favorites. His superb playing has gained recognition through Ins ap- pearances with the Oklahoma Symphony Orchestra and his solo work on the campus. X ' olumcs of applause greet his everv ap] earancc. W ' licn anv one needs some one to tickle the ivories Prof. Sjjalding is the man. Not only is he an ardent follower of music, but Prof. Spalding is an enthusiastic sports fan. His a])prcciation of c|uality in all fields is an inspiration to his many adnnrers. 28 FACULTY The mathematical mind and the teacher of problem students is PROFESSOR E. V. GREER. In 1934 the University of Illinois conferred on him the M.A. degree, and he is continuing his graduate work there. Besides ex- pounding daily on the intricacies of college geometr, ' , trig, algebra, and calculus, he manages to find time for a five-hour course in zoology each semester. Strangely enough. Prof ' s secondar - interest, aside from playing pranks, is music. He is an accomplished pianist, a violinist, and a member of the church choir and men ' s octet. Since Prof is a member of the Bethany Fire Depart- ment, his classes may expect him to disappear suddenly, even in the middle of a sentence, if the fire alarm blows during class. MRS. MARGARET DUNN ... a Kansan. and proud of it ... a Republican, because her father is ... a collector of elephants; she has over one hundred to date. Although being a house-wife is her main interest, Mrs. Dunn finds time to devote to her favorite subject, music. Her duties on the campus are teaching private piano les- sons and pla ing for special religious services. She says that her most enjoyable experiences are those in which she accompanies her husband in evangelistic meetings. Mrs. Dunn ' s teaching experience has been varied. In 1940 and ' 41 she directed the Junior Choir in the local church; from 1942 to ' 43 she taught music at the high school, and since 1942 she has added her bit to the college fine arts department. w ITie Athletic Director of B.P.C. is PROFESSOR VERNON A. SNOWBARGER. His untiring efforts in promoting the sports program and in building the pres- tige of the Redskins have greatly emphasized the import- ance of physical development on the campus. He also teaches courses in Social Science and Mathematics. An active member of the church, he is General Presi- dent of the Bethany N.Y.P.S. Prof. Snowbarger ' s ability to keep up with all of these activities may be credited to his quick actions and brisk walk. We agree with Mrs. Snowbarger wheQ-,,she savs, He ' s a wojiderful man! ZiJ, jAvi 29 W - l FACULTY I- have come to tell you ... Yes, meet DR. C. B. STRANG . . . college pastor. Post Chaplain of the Put- nam City American Legion, member of the General Board of the Church of the Nazarene, Trustee of B.P.C. lie is also listed in Who ' s Who. Nazarenes everywhere know him as the author of Meeting Life ' s Situations and the editor of the Young People ' s Department of the Sunday School Quarterlies. But the people of Bethany appreciate him particularly for his rich messages. On the campus and in his classes of Major Prophets and The Life of Paul, his sense of humor, his friendliness and optimism make all students feel that he is their own individual parson. m 4 MISS RUTH FESS. Acting Chairman of the English Department, graduated from college as valedictorian of her class, with majors in both English and Greek. There is ne er a dull moment in any of her classes, because she has a new method for each session, making it novel and colorful. When visiting in the cozy apartment of Miss Fess. one is introduced to Hansel, Gretel, Aunt Phoebe, and The Bookworm which are a few of her rare collection of pictures. She adds lustre to campus banquets and dinners with her decorations of beautiful Old English lettering. The Honor Society expressed its respect for her in- terest in high scholarship, by choosing her as sponsor for the year. MEDIC CAPTAIN LESTER DUNN rejoined the B.P.C. faculty in Februan, ' after three years of service with the Army Medical Corps, thirteen months of which was .spent overseas. Having been attached to the 99th regiment as com- manding officer of a collecting company. Captain Dunn participated in the Battle of the Bulge. Tlie last six months of his overseas service was spent in the vicinity of the world-famed city of NurenlxTg. where he studied voice four months with Alex Miltschinoff, leading Ger- man Opera singer. Before entering the armed service, Mr. Dunn was principal of Bethan high school and also a professor of voice here in the college. When you think of Dunn, you think of the army, singing, and sports. 1 30 FACULTY For the latest word on etiquette see MISS EURELA BROWN— the campus Emily Post. Evervone enjoys being invited to the Home Ec coffee room. because some- thing good is sure to be served. As head of the Home Economics Department, she gives her students plenty of opportunities for practical experience in working out class- room theories. Miss Brown has many interests. Before coming to Bethany she had time for participation in horseback rid- ing, golfing, swimming, and tennis. While in Springfield, Missouri, she was director of the Junior Art Museum. Her hobbies -are collecting antique furniture (most of it is in the attics of various friends) and glassware. w ! - We have missed PROFESSOR WILLIS B. DOBSON, who has been on a leave of absence at the University of Texas where he is working on his Ph. D. degree. Not only is Professor Dobson a favorite of the College, but he has contributed greatly to the town and church work through his activities with the Bov Scouts and his supervision of the Intermediate Department of the Sundav School. He is an accomplished pianist and an unusually well-informed and widely-read person. With him in Te.xas is his wife, Mrs. Naomi Dobson, a former teacher of Voice in the College, and Billy, their best and only child. Professor Dobson has taught here longer than anv other faculty member, which makes us feel that, whether here or away, he belongs to us. 1 i f Canada ' s good-will ambassador to B.P.C. campus is f MISS ELIZABETH NELSON, sponsor and director of ' the Treble Choir, teacher of private voice and church music classes. Her education includes diploma in voice from Canadian Nazarene College, studies under Dr. ' Henry of the Henry School of Music in Saskatchewan, Canada, an A.B. degree from Northwestern Nazarene College, and an M. A. degree from Boston University. Miss Nelson ' s love of music, zest for life, enjoyment of association with people, and her voice which is a com- bination of rich contralto and soprano, make her a fav- orite among the students. 31 L CAMPUS FRIENDS V There are always a few indispensable persons on even, ' college T V ( campus. At B.P.C. Mrs. Katie Drewry (top), Mrs. Man, ' Scars % ' ' {center). Mr. and Mrs. Paul Simpson (Jower Jcft), and Mrs. v Nettie Bracken (Jowcr right) claim that distinction. It is heir rcsponsibilit} ' to make an enjoyable home-life for the o V_porm students and to satisfy the ravenous appetites of 250 V. ' students daily. In her early days MRS. MARY SEARS was a natural at teaching school. Having gained much practical experience in raising her own four children— two professors of B.P.C, and a Nazarene pastor, Mrs. Sears is today successful] filling the place f mother in the lives of hundreds of girls on the campus. With the advent of the new girls ' dormitory ' unit this year, there was need for an additional girls ' counselor. MRS. NETTIE BRACKEN, who spent a number of years as school- teacher, business woman, and pastor ' s wife, was chosen to direct this new venture. She likes young people, but it troubles her that she is getting old. Although the problems would tend to be greater than ever for the Perceptor of the boys ' dorm by having the fellows scattered in different houses around the campus, MR. PAUL SIMPSON has gone quietly about his duties and has provided a happy home-life for the boys. He has taken an active part in basketball and softball and gained membership in the Honor Societ ' for three semesters. The captain of the college mess-hall, better known as MRS. KATIE DREWRY, graduated from the Arkansas State Teacher ' s College with a major in mathematics. After teach- ing for five years, she traveled with her husband— a piano tuner and collected the best recipes from the chefs of the hotels in which she lived. Today she is trying out those favorite recipes on the Bethany dining hall gang. .:j ' ■I .

After coming to B.P.C. in the spring of 1943. he early won recognition by being elected Secretan- of the Sophomore Class the following fall. During that vear the President of his class resigned and Don was elected to succeed him. In his Junior year he ser ed as X ' ice-President of the Student Council and in his Senior year he has taken over the gavel. Don is a champion of democratic student government and feels that the Student Coiuicil should represent the entire student body in its program. He has sought to encourage the closest coopera- tion lx;tween the students and the faculty. To further demon- strate the breadth of his vision, Don has endeavored to make the student bodv program contribute to the fullest extent in developing .1 well-rounded, four-fold life. Mr. Don Beaver, the students of Bethany-Penicl College salute youl 34 Carl Ingersol, STUDENT DIRECTOR OF RELIGIOUS ACTI ' ITIES, has led the student body to a greater participation than ever before in the campus religious organizations. The high t)pe of leadership given by Cad this year is a culmina- tion of a number of years of Christian service. Converted at the age of seven, he was called to preach in October of 1942 and en- rolled in B.P.C. the following year. In his home church at Still- water, Oklahoma, he began his religious activities as Sunday School teacher. President of the Hi-N.Y., and member of the Church Board. Since coming to Bethany he has served as President of the Gospel Team, Vice-President of the Prayer and Fasting League, and student pastor at Wynnewood, Oklahoma. A fervent spiritual atmosphere among the students, and a vital interest in the religious organizations stand as a worthy tribute of the success of Carl ' s work this year. 35 STUDENT GOVERNMENT The student government of Bethany-Peniel College is centered in a Student Council consisting of a President. Vice-President, Secretar -Treasurer. Student Director of Religious Activities, and one representative from each of the four classes. This year the respective members of the Council have been: Don Beaver, Jim llanulton. Joy Beaver, Carl Ingcrsol. Helen Faye Moore (Senior). Delene Stockton ( iinior), Ted HoUingsworth (Sophomore), and Norman Howerton (Freshman). Prof. C. H. Ripper has been the sponsor. The activities sponsored by the Student Council have been varied and intensely interesting. During the first week of the fall term the new Student Handbooks and the student activity cards were issued at the Council Booth in the Administration Building. The All-School Get-together was on the first Friday evening. Much excitement was generated by comic numbers presented by botii facultv members and students. Of course, there was the traditional solo bv Prof. Crill— The Green-e ed Dragon, and the suit-case race. In October Clean-up Day was obser ed with plenty of good, hard work. When dinner time arrived, the campus had received a real face-lifting. The fencing around the tennis court was given a coat of silver paint, windows in all of the buildings were washed, the parkway along the new Col- lege Street pavement was smoothed down, and the leaves were raked up and given a wheelbarrow ride to the incinerator. The night sleep came easy! The Annual Christmas Party had a particulady new feature —Prof. Wavne Thorne was Santa Clans. Before passing out the many exchange gifts, Santa brought gales of laughter from the frolicking students bv taking Jim Hamilton on his lap and asking him if he had been a good boy this year. Everyone went home to enjoy a happy vacation— everyone but Don Beaver. Don sent JIM HAMILTON, Vice Prcsidtnt JOY BEAVER, Secretary-Treasurer REPRESENTATIVES: Norman Ilowcrton, Helen Faye Moore, Dele ne Stockton. ed HoUingsworth. PROF. C. H RIPPER. SPONSOR 36 the Santa Claus suit home to its owner in Oklahoma Cit ' , but it didn ' t get there. Someone stole the suit! However, a small boy found it discarded in a near-bv allev, and his mother, having read of the incident in the newspaper, notified Don in time for him to enjoy the New Year. During the early spring months several Lyceum numbers were given. On Februan,- 22 Rev. Claude A. Beeslev gave an in- teresting tra elogue through New Mexico. His subject was The American Nile. Rev. Beesley is Rector of the Church of the Good Shepherd at Wichita Falls. Texas. In March the Little Symphony of Oklahoma City gave a very profitable concert. One of the most captivating, although new, features of the year was the World Student Service Fund Drive. This project is for the purpose of contributing to the re-education of the youth of the war-torn countries. Elton Wood was selected to direct the Drive and was assisted by Jim Hamilton from the Student Council. A well-planned program was arranged and amid much enthusiasm the project went over with a great success. With the coming of peace to the world, the Council sought in choosing a gift for the College to pav tribute to the war heroes and at the same time to point to greater days ahead. Therefore, two gifts have been selected— a memorial plaque honoring the five B.P.C. men who paid the supreme price, and a sound-silent movie projector and screen which will be used exclusively for visual education purposes. The bronze plaque is 18 x24 and will bear the names and pictures of: Reginald Carter, Robert Hicks, Mar in Stockett, Robert Corlev, and Carl Newsome. The work of the Student Council has been ver)- successful, and its high type of leadership is appreciated by everyone. Victor AUessandro. Symphony director The sound-silent movie projector. Dr. C. A.

Learning is the apprenticeship of life. But the student is to be educated not only because he is to make shoes, hammer nails, draw blueprints, and guide the tractor, but because he should know the laws of God in nature and revelation that he may fashion his affections and will in harmony with those laws. MENTAL DEVELOPMENT 40 FRESHMAN CLASS The largest Freshmen class ever to glorify the Bethany- Peniel College campus, was initiated into college life in the fall of 19-15. They came as the first peacetime class in Four Years. Much of the increased enrollment is due to the large number of returned ser iccmcn who have started back to school under the G. I. Bill of Rights. The freshmen are happy over many things; first, that they emerged from the sophomore initiation completely un- harmed but infinitely wiser; second, that the ' arc the larg- est class in the history of the school; and third, that thc} ' are the golden anniversary class. These fresh haven ' t been idle during their first year on our campus. They had a big part} ' at Lincoln Park early in the fall, and in the spring, on March 28th, they bari- queted at the Biltmore Hotel in Oklahoma Citv. Gov. Robert S. Kerr was their guest speaker, and a magician from Norman, Oklahoma provided entertainment. The president of the class, Ed Hadduck, has kept the class acti ities moving at a fast pace, setting a good example himself by being active in basketball and debate. The freshmen have a large majoriU of the ser icemen, vocal and instrumental groups, and members on the ECHO and ARROW staffs, and members on both the all-school base- ball and basketball teams. Curtis Horn, businessman ex- traordinary, won first prize in the ARROW sales contest. These freshmen have a mind of their own that runs in definitely new and interesting channels. It was none other than the yearlings who instigated the idea of starting a college Post Office for the student body. This has met with great success, and a plan is going to be worked out very soon to make this dream a realitv . . . Thanks for good ideas from freshmen brains! We aren ' t worried about the outcome of this Freshman Class. In spite of the much-dreaded and longed-for orientation into college life, the frosh have made the proper adjustments and are already quite at home on the B.P.C. campus. They look forward to the next three years with happy hearts, for they expect to present a fiftieth birthda present to our college on its Golden Anniversary in 1949. m Ed Hadduck, Prcsidciif Fred Cason, Vice-President Raybum Jones, Secretary Lawana Loughmiller, Treasurer Prof, McClung, Sponsor Norman Howerton, Representafive 41 FRESHMAN CLASS Babcock, Dorothy Babcock, Lois Babcock, Margie Baldwin, Gan, ' L.

Secrefan-7 ' reasurer The Freshmen of 19+4 arrived at B.P.C. one hundred and sixh- strong, along with Dr. Finch, the new president, lliey promptly elected the Crill ' s as their sponsors and immediately became a forward moving class. They elected as their president Ted Hollingsworth, the first student to enter Bethanv-Peniel College under the G. I. Bill of Rights, Such a good year was 1944-45, that about two-thirds of the freshman returned this past fall as sophomores. They im- mediately reelected the Grill ' s as their sponsors. Tlie soph- omores started the year right by giving the freshmen a hectic week of initiation— Indian style— ending with a big party to honor the papooses. Neil High tower became president of the Sophomore Class, and he led them very ably in their activities which included a picnic at Will Rogers Park in the early fall, and winning the prize for having the best decorations at the Jamboree. At Christmastime the entire class was entertained by the Grills a t a big party in the Youth Center. Second semester brought some new class members and many plans for spring. Mar Ellen Herrin won second place in the ARROW contest. Tommie Johnson and Elaine Sanford brought back honors from the Savage Forensic Tournament at Southeastern College— Tommie in debate and Elaine in poetry. The greatest thrill of the year came when both the boys ' and girls ' basketball teams captured the tournament champion- ships. The Sophomore Banquet on March 28th was a gala affair with laughs for even,one. The laughs were provided mostly by their after-dinner speaker, W. D. McGraw, genial college business manager. The banquet was held at the Y.W.C.A. again this year in accordance with the class budget plan. This budget provides for a Junior-Senior Banquet next year, and a Senior Trip the following year, and their gift to the school in 1948. We must admit those Sophomores are a brainy class to budget their finances for the years to come; so their expen.ses won ' t be too high at graduation time. Not only that, but the Sophomores are already making plans for next year and their Junior Play which they expect to begin early next fall. Watch out for this class of ' 48!

Secrefan ' Our Junior Class, as the I ' rcslinicn of 1945, came breezing into Bethany-Pcniel College with the traditional bigger-than-cver Freshman Class. As sophomores they took all the athletic crowns of the year, except track. It seemed as if those Sophs just couldn ' t be kept down. At the speech tournament at Ada two of them brought back outstanding awards: George Moore, in interpreta- tion of poetry, oratory, radio speaking, and after- dinner speaking, and Delcne Stockton in debate. This year has been the most exciting of all for this, our Junior Class. In the fall thev had a party at Roger Haven, which is bound to make all history books. Inunediatcly the class started working on their Junior Play. It took hours of grueling work, but when In His Steps was per- sentcd for the public, it sold out completelv, and two performances were given to packed houses. The spiritual and high moral tone of the play made it very popular on the campus and in the community. The Jr.-Sr. Banquet was the highlight of the year for the host Juniors. Rev. L. J. Du Bois was the after-dinner speaker. The banquet was held at the Hotel Biltniore in Oklahoma Citv and followed a nautical tiicme. George Moore with his dry pointless jokes kept everything sailing, and Prof. Weksh, sponsor of the Junior Class, took honors with his poetic little missile which he tossed the seniors as a farewell toast. Deward Finch came back from the Savage Forensic tournaments at Southeastern State in March with debate honors for his school and class. Me, with Tommic Johnson, were rated the No. I mixed team in the midwest. We mustn ' t forget the Junior Trip . . . three davs of leisure and fun, followed by a sunburned, tired, but happv class returning home with many memories of what had been . . . and looking forward to their last year of this great adventure of college life.

This year thirteen of the original class are graduating, having completed the four years together. The distinguished thirteen are: Blanche Andrew, Joy Beaver, Rachel Belcher, Betty Classen, Wilma Haley, Ester Marie Landtroop, Almeta Mizell, Virginia Moore, Mildred Russell, Lewis Andrew, Clester Pults, Howard Bynum, and William Marsh. The class of ' 46 has seen many changes take place in the world in general and also on our own College Campus. Having enrolled shortly after Pearl Harbor, many of the students left to answer the call of our country. This partially accounts for the small number of the original class members graduating this spring. With the first B.P.C. class to graduate in the postwar world, four ex-servicemen. Dean Wessels, Ed Taylor, John Harper, and Herman Parrish, have returned to the campus to receive their diplomas. One third of the class has been under three college administrations— Dr. A. K. Bracken, Dr. S. T. Ludwig, and Dr. O. J. Finch. Recovering sufficiently from the air-blitz initiation accorded them as freshman, the seniors showed some signs of settling down in their strenuous sophomore year. The Selective Ser- vice draft depeleted the man-power until the girls commanded a two-thirds majority by the time their junior year rolled around. In spite of the war time shortages, their Junior Play, The Barretts, was a smashing success. It was said to be one of the best plays ever given on the Bethany-Peniel College campus. Both their Junior-Senior Banquet and their Junior Trip to Price ' s Falls were major activities of the spring of 1945. Climaxing their four year loaf the Senior elected two ex- servicemen, Dean Wessels and Ed Taylor, to lead their class this year. Dean Wessels, President Rev. W. D. McGraw, the business manager of the college and sponsor of the class, started the year off right with a steak dinner. Feeling in good spirits, the ' 46er s romped away with the soft- ball pennant and the first prize in the ARROW sales contest selling a number equal to 58% of the enrollment of the class. In the spring the seniors sponsored the Departmental Plays, struggled through their comprehensives, eased off with four days of horseback riding, skating, hiking, and eating at Prices Falls, on the Senior trip, and sighed with relief as they received their Sheep-skin from Dr. Finch in May.

REGINALD CAR lER, a member of the Class of ' 46, died of wounds on December 17, 1944, while a prisoner of war of the German gov- ernment. Carter paid the supreme sacrifice in an attack in Hurtigcn Forest. The Germans tossed a hand grenade, and Reginald threw himself on the projectile to save the lives of his buddies. S Sgt. Robert A Johnston wrote, I am sorry that it had to be Reginald because he was one of my best men and was liked ery much by everv ' one. He made a good account of himself. Pfc. Carter, who was twenty-two vears old, was a member of the infantn, ' . During the three months he was overseas, he was stationed in England, Scotland, France, Belgium, and Ger- many. He was graduated from Okmulgee high school in 1941 and attended a business college there a year before he enlisted. After he entered the army in September of 1942, he attended Bethanv-Peniel College, and the Huntsville State College at Huntsville, Texas, for one semester, under an army training program. Pfc. Carter ' s father is Rev. W. A. Carter, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of B.P.C. and pastor of the First Nazarene Church in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. Reginald ' s sister. Ruth, has been a member of the freshman class here for the past year. The Class of ' 46 is proud to have had as a member one who. bv his unusual braver ' and action beyond the call of dut) , distinguished him- self in World War II. His spirit and his example have .set a pattern of service that shall ever inspire his classmates as they leave their Alma Mater to face the battles of life. Civiliiin Carter and brother.

Feeling that they should ha% ' e equal recognition with the other classes, approximate!} 1 1 5 specials met and selected Bruce Wade, popular c angciistic singer from Texas, as their president. Roscy Iloilingswortli, rcd-iicadcd Fine Arts Special who hails from Enid, Oklahoma, took over the responsibilities of secre- tar -treasurer. Two ministerial students, Jerald Locke and Lillian Northcutt were elected as student council representative and athletic director, respectively. By unanimous vote Miss Alice Lewis was chosen as faculty sponsor for this group. One of the main activities of the year was a party given at the new Bethany Youth Center. Following some exciting games of ping pong, shuffle boards, checkers, carom, and several group games, the hungr,- classmen filled up on hot dogs and pop. Members of the Specials Class are students registered in Fine Arts, Theology, or regular college classes who arc not taking enough hours to be classified as a full-time students. They con- tribute a ital influence to the college life. Included in this section arc the pictures of part of the scond semester students. A large percentage of this group are W ' odd War II Veterans who have come to Bethany-Peniel College under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Already they are taking a very acti c part in all phases of the campus activities.

One hundred fiftv-nine brave-hearts took cour- age and signed their names on the dotted line. Professors Ripper and Snowbarger were on hand to give direction to the first and second semester respectively. Fifty-six new students were among the number who register- ed. The final verdict of every- one was that Summer School was not so bad after all. Dr. Finch, President; Prof. Snowbarger and Prof, Ripper, Directors.

Appropriate vows were exchanged as Dr. C. B. Strang read the ceremony, Uncle Charlie McConnell gave the bride awa}-, and Mr. and Mrs. Emery Mc- Reynolds, their daughter and son-in-law, acted as groomsman and brides-maid. Adding importance to the occasion, Rev. Wiman ' s familv was reunited for the third time in twentv vears. Prof, and Mrs. iniin exchanging vows. GET ACQUAINTED PARTY The second occasion on the Summer Social Calendar was the Get-Acquainted Party, Friday evening, May 25. Prof. Snowbarger, Prof. Thome, Twig McMahon, and Wana Walker were on hand with a bag full of games. Shouts of laughter greeted the boys ' dirty feet in shoe-less, sockless, male relay race. Hardly less amusing was the girls ' pie-eating contest. Rev. McGraw furnished the most excitement of the evening when he entered a pillow-fight with Boyd Kifer (picture at right). 97 (First TOW) W C LaDue C H Ripper. K. C. Hall. D. R. Danskin.

While some of the august faculty were sweating-it-out in Bethany classrooms, others were cramming-it in in Universities in California, Wyo- ming, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan. Oklahoma, Texas, and North Carolina. Over half of the entire teaching staff were engaged in this improvement campaign. Meanwhile, B.P.C. was welcoming two new profs to the Summer Session. Dr. LaDue expounded on the values of language, and Prof. Thome revealed secrets of the Scriptures to his Old Testament students. I ' Blow hard. E. C.

In the evening hours the gang would gather for some rough-and-tumble games of football, softball, and volley ball. Weary muscles and drooping spirits were revi ved, and minds were cleared for the ne.xt day ' s tasks in the classroom. By popular demand a tennis tournament was organized and a new system of elimination was tried. The three best players were rated and it was necessar)- to defeat the number three man be- fore one was eligible to play number two, etc. Louis McMahon, Maurice Hall, and Eugene Ver- beck had little trouble winning the top spots. Just as competition was promising to be quite keen, McMahon and Hall were placed on the hospital list. From there on out they had to enjoy the tournament from the sidelines in company with their cane and crutches. Verbeck easily defeated all the remaining contestants and won the tennis crown.

Various activities, which helped to face-lift the buildings and grounds, were completed by student labor. One of the main projects was the remodeling of the gymnasium. Eugene Scroggins shouted the orders while the others tore down the old platform and in its place erected a lovely combination mstrumental rehearsal room and stage with fluorescent lighting and sliding doors. Two music studios, an instrument room, and a music library rounded out the job. All of the buildings were treated to a coat of fresh wall- finish and paint. Space does not permi t us to tell of plaster- ing, sealing floors, calking, removing trees, cleaning the campus, building partitions, preparing organ rooms . . .

McGraw called Paul Simpson aside and advised him of the necessih ' of undertaking a most unpleasant job — tarring all of the roofs on the campus. While the work crew was in the process of dreading the inevitable, the sky clouded up, the winds blew, and the hail descended . Fortunately for everyone, except the insurance company, the damage was sufficient that the build- ings had to be completely recovered. The Consolidated Roofing Company was called to the rescue, (upper Jeft) and the student work crew was happy again. In conformity with the policy of the Business Office to keep even, ' thing in proper repair, a steeple-jack was obtained from Oklahoma Cit}- to paint the flag-pole (upper right) and hang a new cable. As Prof. Hall emerged from the Ad building, he was cheered to see a number of his meteorolog}- students sup- posedly studying the clouds. He, however, was speedily disil- lusioned when he followed their gaze to the top of the flag-pole— there wasn ' t a cloud in the sky! Probably one of the most appreciated improvements of the season was the paving of the streets (center) to the west and east of the campus. The only inconvenience suffered from this project is that of doing away with the winter mud-puddle in front of the Fine Arts building. No longer can students enjoy free entertain- ment on their way to chapel, for no one will get stuck anv more. The old, bumpy, country roads adjoining the College ha e be- come smooth, beautiful, city streets (Jower center). They are truly a credit to the school and the city. Of major importance to Mrs. Drewry and her kitchen assistants was the extension of the kitchen ( bottom ) to include room for a walk-in refrigerator, ample room for washing kitchen utensils, and enlarged storing space. M 101 I r t i v I •• NEW DORMITORY UNIT The first phase of the $300,000 Expansion Program was begun this summer. After the Board of Trustees ' final approval of this new unit of Bud Robinson Hall, efforts were made to purchase materials. The contract was let to Mr. L. C. Cherry (left) on July 18, but difficult} ' in finding the proper mill work and finish- ing stones caused delay in actual building till October 1. However, all preliminary work, such as digging ditciies. pouring foundations, plumbing, and laying the first sub-floor, was completed during the summer months. The building, as far as possible, matches Bud Robinson Hall in every particular, lliero arc three stories with forty four rooms, parlor, and supervisor ' s apartment. 102 The ditch digger (top) saved much back-breaking work. Kenneth Hull, Charles Harri- son, and Wesley Meek put the finishing touches on the ditches, (center). The first sub-floor (lower right) was laid in August. Mr. A. S. Mersch, foreman, (lower left) watches the pour- ing of the first cement for foundations. m£. -W- ' . ) i i ,,- y; mia? F.?rT -. ' -] r r_j 103 Summer Tent Meeting . . . Revs. Ellis and Ruth Teasdale, evangelists. RELIGIOUS The spiritual interests of the summer student body were well taken care of by Chapel services, Vacation Bible School, revival services, and Friday noon prayer and fast- ing services. Miss Alice Lewis and her assistants did a grand job of super ' ising the N ' acation Bible School in the local church. Not only did the 323 children who registered profit by the talents of Miss Lewis, but the college group who as- sisted her were enriched by their association with her. ACTIVITIES Those who participated this year were; Talmadge Stands, Elizabeth Hale. Geraldine Courtney, Herbert Scott, J. Russell Smith, Vivian Beckel, and Glenn McArthur. Initiating a new program, the College Church erected a large tent on the northeast corner of the campus and conducted a summer camp meeting, July 26 to August 5. Revs. Ellis and Ruth Teasdale were the evangelists. This young couple is unusually talented— they both preach, and together they play twelve different musical instruments.

French, pastor of the First Church of the Nazarene at Norman, Oklahoma, was the guest speaker. In introducing the speaker, Dr. Finch called attention to the interesting side- light that in every summer commencement so far the pastor at Norman has given the address. Rev. French pointed out to the graduates that TTie secret of every great victory is getting good and ready. The battles are won, not on the battle fields nor locked in deadly combat, but on the campuses of college and universities . . . Education within itself is not enough to meet the demands of this age. You must be armed not only with facts in your head— you must have God in your heart . . . Great tasks create and challenge a great people, and the task which is before you is a task that will call out the noblest activity; in doing it you will build the loftiest character possible. Honors were presented to Una Wright, Billie Ann Jones, and Goldie Phillips. Rev. W. L. French, speaker Dr. Finch shows the graduates the plans for the Expansion Program. (Front row) J. C.

Tliere may be a tennis or a basket- ball tournament, for the balls arc flying. And, if the question is, Why are the men all up in the air? the answer is Ah-h-h, it ' s pole-vaulting time! The students, who seem to have forgotten the sedate college gait and have started running to classes, although they may not be tardy this time, are working up speed for the spring sprints . . . College days include self-discipline to the tunc of the g}mnasium-floor whistle, brightened bv Jamboree colors, enlivened by the excitement of track dav. Thev arc thinking and willing with cncrg and accuracy. Rhythmic motion and ability to go one ' s limit are cultivated, and health is preserved as a religious moral duty. Promotion from first base on the campus ball-diamond to first base in the sphere of mature progression will be for the individual who has been well-instructed in the art of deliberating with caution, yet acting with precision, yielding with graciousness, or opposing w ith firmness. PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT 108 Prof. V. Snowbarger, Director BOYS ' ATHLETICS Although Bethany-Peniel College does not par- ticipate in inter-collegiate sports, this important phase of physical development is by no means overlooked. Starting with softball in ' the fall and winding up with the annual track-meet in the spring, there is never an idle moment in the athletic department. The College administration fully appreciates the need of sufficient physical exercise for students who are giving the major part of their time to intellec- tual pursuits. Therefore, a definite program of physical education classes has been worked out along with an extensive intramural program. Competition in softball, basketball, and track is arranged between the class organizations. Ten- nis, ping-pong, and horseshoes give ample oppor- tunity for individual participation. To encourage outstanding performance and good sportsmanship, letters are awarded to those showing unusual ability. Those receiving a letter in any one of the sports are eligible for member- ship in the Redskins— better known as the War- riors and Squaws. The sports program this year has been enhanced greatly by the return of a number of war veterans. This has made possible a better quality of per- formance and a keener spirit of competition. Another factor contributing to the success of the athletic organization this year has been the re- modeling of the gymnasium. During the sum- mer months a new bandstand was built at the west end of the building. Also the entire interior was ceiled with celotex and new bleachers, capable of seating 800 persons, were installed. Lewis Andrews.

SOFTBALL The 1945 softball season had more than its share of thrills and spills. A surprisingly strong ag- gregate from the Freshman Class scared everyone, but, although more than half the All-stars were selected from this group, the Frosh landed in the cellar. The Juniors, last year ' s pennant grab- bers, made a real bid, but the Seniors, behind the stellar pitch- ing of Andrew, came through on top. In the first game of the season the Juniors started out with a bang and rolled up six runs in the first inning. However, they were unable to rally again, and in the fifth Hull tied up the game for the Seniors by hitting a home- run with the bases loaded. TTie Seniors won 7-6. Two days later the Juniors again seemed to have things their own way against the Seniors, keep- ing a 2-0 lead throughout the en- tire gafne. In the last half of the last inning Willie Marsh con- nected for a long home run into right field with two men on bases. The Seniors seemed always to have what it took just at the right time. In mid-season the Juniors came back with wins of 5-4 and 13-12 110 over the Sophomores and Fresh- men respectively. Smith and Hudson drove in the winning runs in these contests. The Senior ' s pennant hopes were jeopardized when the re- juvenated Freshmen team came up with a surprise win of 3-2 on October 16. Further consterna- tion gripped the upper-classmen when a few days later the Soph- omores again turned the trick, and with the aid of the specta- cular fielding of M. Parrish eked out a 5-4 victor}-. This Senior loss placed the Seniors in a three-way tie for first place with the Juniors and Sophomores. Excitement ran high as the two upper classes took to the dia- mond on October 23 to decide the championship. Both teams played good ball, and ver)- few errors were made. However, the Seniors were not to be beaten, and they emerged on top with a 7-5 score. This Softball season was one of the most exciting and evenly contested in several years. The games were well attended, and the spectators— including class spon- sors—made the noise which is always necessary for a good ball game. SOPHOMORES (Front row) L. Thompson, Hall.

Little Andrew SOFTBALL REDSKINS GLEN LITTLE, catcher, practically ran away with the batting championship, being first in total hits with twelve. He was very alert, made but two errors during the season, and provided plenty of chatter. LEWIS ANDREW, pitcher, a senior with his own peculiar delivery, won four games and lost two. Lewis ' s control, along with his fast ball, caused much grief for the opposition. He was the workhorse of the league, several times pitching two days in a row. The sophomore flash, GDIS BROWN, first base, was one of the classiest fielders on the dia- mond. He played the full season without com- miting an error and ended with a .535 batting average. He was always full of zip. STANLEY LEDBETTER, a freshman, was given the second base berth although he played the infield around besides taking one pitching as- signment. No matter where he played he was the mainstav of his team. During the season he com- mitted but two errors. His batting average was .375, and he was second in runs scored. PERRY TUDOR, third base, played brilliant ball afield— only three errors at the hot corner were marked up against him— and hit a hot .438. He was very quick on a pickup, and his peg to first was excellent. He had a particular knack of play- ing the impossible skinners. The most versatile member of the junior team was DEWARD FINCH, who could play the hot spots of the infield as well as pitch. In this, his second year to make the all-school team, Deward led in number of runs scored and was second in number of hits made. He was the smartest base- runner in the tournament. His batting average was a healthy .440. JIMMY HAMILTON, utility, played catcher, short-stop, an d rover for the juniors.

He is an excellent fly-catcher and his ability at the plate is exhibited in his .375 batting average. GLEN McARTHUR gained the center field berth and was runner-up for the batting champion- ship with a sizzling .500. He was adept at throw- ing a runner out and was alawys found backing up a play. One of the best fielders this season was EU- GENE PLEMONS, who placed as rover. He made many brilliant stops, and what he lacked in size he made up in hustle. His average was .33B. Tlie freshmen found in ERNEST CONRAD, right field, an all-round ball player. He hit a long ball whenever he connected, and he connected quite often, as his .480 average shows. In the field he was always on his toes. Scroggins is out by a foot . . . in McArthur, O Riggs, Brown, Hall, and Finch rest at quarter time. JAMBOREE 6AME Olen Riggs, Captain Friday night, November 23, at nine o ' clock, referee Withee tossed the ball into the air, and the boys ' game of the annual B.P.C. Jamboree was under way. The Bethany Redskins were pitted against the Kings Laundr) ' team. This year Coach Vernon Snowbarger put one of the best teams in the school ' s history on tlic floor. Captain O. Riggs connected with only six points, but from the sidelines one could easily sec that the opposition rode him hard. Hall was high point man for the Redskins with 19 points, followed by P ' inch with 14, O. Riggs 6, Brown, McArthur. and Andrew with 2 points each. I Siabs led the scoring for the King ' s Laundry team with 10 points while Sharpe followed one point behind. In the first half Hall connected for the Redskins with 10 points, missed one free throw, and had two personal fouls. Finch made 8 points, missed ore free toss, and did not foul. O. Riggs hit for 3 points, missed 3 free throws, and had 3 personal fouls. In that same half Irwin, Siebs, and Slagle hit one bucket each for the King ' s Laundry, while Loveless slipped in 3 points and Sharpe scored 5. The score at half time stood at 21 for B.P.C. against 14 for King ' s Laundry. In the second half Hall came through with 9 points for the Bethanyites while Finch hit 3 field buckets and made one personal. O. Riggs sunk 3 more points and added another foul to his list. Brown got 2 points and 2 fouls, while Andrew and McArthur grabbed one field bucket each. The boys from King ' s Laundry hit better in the second half, but their cause was hope- less. Miller added 5 points, while Siebs was hitting 8, Sharpe 4, and Thuringer 1 . The final score: B.P.C. 45, King ' s Laundry 32. Name Pos FG FT PF TP Hall G 9 1 4 19 E. Riggs G 4 O.

Each of the teams began the tournament with a fiery determinination to have its class finish at the top. Although it just doesn ' t come out that way, it gives an enthusiasm and a tingling enjoyment to each tilt. From the very start it was evident that the Freshman and Sophomore teams were the boys to w tch. Thirst}- for revenge after a somewhat disasterous softball season, the lowerclassmen effected strong organizations and left nothing undone to give them the victory in this major sports event. In the first round the Frosh rallied around Joe Bean, Glenn Little, and Ed Haddock to come through with five wins and no loses. At each of the games the yearling ' s Pep Club was on hand to make plenty of noise for their aggregation. The second round had all of the vitality and eagerness of the preceeding round, and more. Anything could happen. Right at the start the Seniors eked out a win over the once powerful Juniors, producing a tie for the cellar position. To heighten the excite- ment the Sophomores trounced the Fresh- men in a thriller, which threw these two teams into a tie for first place. The Frosh came back the next week and again won over the Juniors and the Seniors. This gave them seven wins and one loss. The Sophs, increasingly eager for the championship, won their next two games hands down to retain their tie in the pennant race. On the final evening of the season the four determ- ined teams met for the play-off. In spite of the masterful playing of the senior ace, Lewis Andrews, who gathered 16 points, the Jun- iors managed to come out on the long end of the score, 27 to 23. In the main match the Frosh and Sophs played neck to neck throughout the contest. At the half time the Freshmen were trailing 18 to 11, but they had plenty of fight left. During the second half all ten players were going at top speed. In the fourth quarter the Sopho- mores pulled out in front. Having secured sufficient lead, the five in gold and black stalled the game. When fhe final whistle blew the Sophs found themselves the vic- tors by a margin of 33 to 26, and the pos- sessors of the coverted basketball pennant. FRESHMEN (Front row) Bean, Little.

Hav- ing featured in tennis for several years. McMahon was runner-up to Dave Sharp last year and reached the finals in the doubles tournament with Verbeck as his partner. The final match saw McMahon pitted against Baldwin. A newcomer to the campus, Baldwin displayed plent} ' of ability and a style all of his own. Ser ' ing from the south-side, he follows up right-handed and deals out a polished, accurate drive. Another of his specialties is that of placing high lobs in the extreme corners of the court. However, all of this was of no avail against McMahon, whose blistering serves and ac- curate cuts, together with an occasional drive, made competi- tion hot for the best. His distinctive ability to play the net was partiallv offset by Baldwins lobs. After a hotly contested match McMahon came off with the victor ' to the tune of 6-3; 6-2; 7-5; 6-1. Following the new perpetual tournament system the winner was not declared champion until November 1. Under the new set-up the four top players may challenge the one immediately ahead of them in an effort to displace him. McMahon retained his place and came off with top honors in the 1945-46 season. The doubles tournament was not run off until after the ARROW went to press.

Cnh ' Diict.t ji GIRLS ' ATHLETICS The Girls ' Director of Athletics. MARY ELLEN HERRIN, a distinguished member of the Sophomore Class, came through with flying colors. One of her main aims has been to encourage increased interest in girls ' athletics and to attract a larger per- centage of participation. The success of Shorty ' s endeavor, through endless talking and voluminous writing, is shown in the large number of girls enrolled in the Physical Education Depart- ment this year. An athlete in her own right, she has lettered in three sports in her two years at B.P.C. llie fact that she can handle the ball as easily as she can mamtain a 3.00 average in her studies has contributed immeasurably to her outstanding success.

The frosh and junior-seniors had good material, and enough of it, but what they lacked— and what the sophs had— was coopera- tion. There were no particularly exciting games— the closest score being 7 to 4— but there were plenty of outstanding players. JO HORN is still listed as one of the top soft- ball players of the campus. As second baseman for the upperclassmen. Jo scarcely let a ba ll pass, and it seems that catching flies was a habit with her. BONNIE COPPOCK is off to a nice start in her athletic career at B.P.C. Although definitely undersize, she proved to be very efficient at second base and rolled up a batting average. Third baseman, pitcher, excellent batter, star of the sophomore team— that ' s NITA GREGG. As a third baseman she can ' t be beaten for catch- ing ground balls and whizzing them to first. When it comes to batting, there are few that can compare with Nita. She is one of the exclusive group of home-run sluggers of the season. SHORTY HERRIN is efficiency plus. She builds a blockade around first base. Her op- ponents regard her as a one-man team. Her dead- eye gauge and poise are a combination that en- able her to play her position top notch. A little on the noisy side, V ' ELMA REED plays an interesting game with an open eye for everything. With her quick, sprightlv actions Velma is always at the right place at the right time. She never loses interest, but plays a good hard game. Her team work is one of her main points. B.P.C. ' s star pitcher from Montana, LOIS WILLIAMSON, dazzles her opponents by her wind-up and the swiftness of the balls she pitches. When her team is at bats, she lends inspiration to her teammates with her powerful yells. JO ANN HEAP, another one of the frosh, is outstanding for her left-hand batting. Although swinging from the south side, she connected many times and drove in several runs during the season. TURP LANDTROOP is noted for her ef- ficiency at first base and for her good batting average. She plays her position with constant energy. Her cheerful attitude under all circum- stances makes her one of the most popular players on the diamond. An invaluable mcnilKr of any team, becau.se of her playing attitude. is RUB ' i ' WILSON. Calm under all circumstances, she is not easily defeated, yet she doesn ' t foolishly try to out-play herself. She capably defended third base for the upper- classmen. TERA JANE MASTERS is one of the best all- round players of the league. She is equally good as pitcher, fieldcrj and batter. 124 The girls ' tennis tournament was a real thriller with Charlotte McGill upsetting Juanita Gregg, who held the championship for the past two years. A veteran in her own right, Charlotte claims the title for the third time. Gregg and McGill had de- feated Wanda Baker and Lois Williamson in the semi-finals. In the first set of the final match the score ran close. The tally showed a tie of four games each, but McGill took the next two and the set. Starting strong on the second round Gregg gained a two game lead. However, again McGill overcame her op- ponents strong serves and excellent returns and won in the last few games. In the final set Charlotte was at her best and ex- hibited a good backhand and fast footwork. Proving to be too much for Gregg, McGill took every game of the last set. Nita Gregg. Lois Williamson.

GIRLS ' BASKETBALL The Softball equipment had hardly been put away when the girls began preparing for the annual Jamboree game which would officially open the basketball season. Shakes- peare has said, All ' s well that ends well, but we do no violence to the statement to say, All ' s well that BEGINS well. Certainly that was true in girl ' s basketball at Beth- any-Peniel College this year. The successful beginning was largely the result of the interest and direction given by Mrs. Alice Crill, who coached the girls during their practices and arranged a preliminary ' game with Putnam City. TTiis intensive training culminated in a decisive 30 to 16 victory over an independent Bethany team in the Jamboree game. TTic relative strength of the various class teams began to show up early in the season and it soon became evident that the nine-week intramural tournament would be ex- tremely interesting. Competition promised to be keen, especially between the Sophomore and Junior-Senior Teams. Tlic prospects for the sophomores seemed to be slightly better than for the others, for they won all the pre-season games. llie junior-seniors got off to a good start when they defeated the freshmen by a score of 28 to 17 in the first tournament game. ' I ' heir luck did not last long, however, for they met the sophomores the next week and lost 22 to 27. The sophomores then defeated the frosh and came out in the lead, only to be tied again when the junior- seniors were victorious over the yearlings for the second time. At the beginning of the second semester Juanita Gregg, who until then had been the high-point forward for the sophomores, became a junior and joined the uppcr-class- mens team. This gave the junior-seniors a definite advan- tage, and it was hoped by them, and feared by the sopho- mores that they would win the tournament as a result of the change. The test came on February 4 when the junior-seniors and the sophomores met for their first game of the second semester. Tlie score of this game was destined to be decisive. After an intensely exciting con- test the sophomores emerged the victors by a score of 27 to 22. Nevertheless, the junior-seniors did not give up. Tliey were to have one more game with the sophs. If the upperclassmcn could win this crucial contest and help the frosh to do likewise there would be the necessity of a play-off. With this in mind the junior seniors practiced hard and struggled through the needed victor, ' . In a final effort for the championship the upper-classmen began coaching the freshmen in the hope that they, too, would be successful against the sophomores. In this, however, they were disappointed, for the papooses went down to a 40 to 25 defeat and the sophs took the tournament. 126 JUNIOR SENIORS: (First row) McGill, Landtroop. (Second ro«) W. Baker.

Meanwhile, Arleen Kent is in the Business Office {lower center, right) last stop — where Miss Florence Lundy is figuring out her bill. A moment later Miss Lundy cheerfully collects Arlecn ' s money and pronounces her Registrant No. 1 of 1945. In the main hall an excited group are collected around the student council booth {bot- tom ) , supervised by Don Beaver and Jim Hamilton, where they receive their stud- ent activity cards and new Studc-nf Handbook. Marion Edwards and Peggy Doing arc not very camera-shy. 132 The first social activity of the year was the Faculty Re- ception for the Freshman Class in the Drag.

To help work up an ap- petite, an early morning hike proved appropriate. Earlene Harris, Virginia Hoag, Russcl McCollom, Audie Lynn, and Peggy Clay still look happy {lower cen- ter) as they pass Bresee Hall. Preceding breakfast is the proper time to clean your room, so Ed Hadduck, Frosh prexy, makes his bed (bot- tom left) while Leona Steel, Dorothy Rhodes, and Betty Nash, who have already ar- rived at the dining hall {bot- tom right), get their war- paint applied. 134 In true papoose style the Frosh sit on the floor and eat breakfast (fop) as papa Leonard Akin keeps a fatherly eye on his charges. After their morning work-out the greenies agreed that any- thing, served anyway, would taste good. They were not disappointed. Following a day of varied activities, the Freshmen and Sophomores met in the Fine Arts Auditorium to bury the hatchet. An interesting pro- gram, featuring memories of the past was arranged and presented by the sophs. Ear- leen Johnson and Richard Thompson (center) played the leading parts as Ma and Pa. One of the most exciting numbers was the old-fashion- ed school (bottom) in which Loretta Oakes starred as school mar ' m. Boyd Kifer was a prissy high brow; Earl Carter, the dunce; J. Walter Hall, Jr., the clown; and Elton Wood was Ruth Du- by ' s barefoot beau. Good feelings were resum- ed around a banquet table where ice cream and cookies were served as long as they lasted. 135 All of the first week was not just fun for the incoming class. On Thursday evening thc)- hesitatingly wound their way to one of the assigned classrooms to take the Psy- chological Tests. Although frightened by the imposing name of this particular acti- vity, the group pictured (top) were disillusioned by Miss Brown, their erstwhile pro- fessor, and all are busily re vealing the quality of their I.Q. To finish thc week in good style, the Student Council sponsored the Annual All- School Party. The excitement engendered by welcomes in French, German, and Span- ish by Dr. LaDuc, Prof. Spalding, and Prof. Wiman; intensified by vocal numbers by Prof. Smith, Prof. Crill, and thc Abilene Trio; brought to a white heat by an instrumental trio composed of Dr. Finch, Rev. McGraw, and Prof. Floyd; and climaxed by the traditional suitcase race (center) which was won by Noble Hathaway and Charlotte Margraves, who de feated George Moore and Rubena Messer; was cooled ofl: by thc generous helpings of ice cream, ice cold pop, and pie served by Albert Gamble and Almeta Mizell ( bottom I while Don Beaver bossed thc job. 136 Douglas Meador and Terry Lambert (top left) believe that all work and no plav make Doug and Terry dull bovs. The girls have their lazv moments too!

The girls of Bud Robinson Hall agree that their col- lege home is the very best. Taking time out from their many activities, Neta Brum- mett and Eunice Cloud (top Jeff) pose for the ARROW photographer. Screened by numerous personal pictures, Algree TTiompson ' s profile (top right) lends interest to the picture. Snack-time finds Juanita Gregg, PhyUis Hendrickson, Ruby Wilson, and Esther Marie Landtroop (center) en- jo nng some Sunshine Krispy Crackers, Heinz Green Pea and Tomato Soup. This is a tasty way of getting their daily vitamins. Sandy Faulkner ( bottom kft) looks up from the pic- ture on her bureau as the ARROW shutter girl walks in. Quite a pleasing picture, don ' t you think? One of the main purposes of the dorm home is to provide a quiet place to study, especially between seven and ten o ' clock each evening. At least one girl, Dorothy I Ian- Ion (bottom right), takes advantage of her opportuni- ties. No wonder she is a top- notch student. n8 On November 8 the Fresh- men, Sophomores, and Jun- iors laid aside their intellec- tual responsibilities to fur- ther their social develop- ment. Finding one truck in- adequate to supply transpor- tation for the entire group, a large number of the fresh- men forlornly v ■aited around (top), hoping thev would not lose out on all the fun at Lincoln Park. Don ' t worry! Prof. Moore and his new truck came to the rescue. The sophomores evaded the photographer and sneaked off to Will Roger ' s Park where they claim they had a great time. We ' ll take their word for it! Meanwhile, the juniors were out at Roger Haven enjoving a scrumptuous meal prepared by Harriet Adams, Helen Jones, and Mrs. Rogers (center). Jim Hamilton again proved his versatility by dem- onstrating his ability to over- load plates with the delicious chih, potato salad, and man size steaks. Wayne Siege looks mighty pleased with the prospects (bottom) .is Tillic ' are, Wilma Blake, Joyce Pigg.

Prof. W. Harper Welch proved to be an ideal afterdinner speaker, special- izing on his J. Walter Hall, Jr.. joke! Some two hundred sc ent -five guests enjoyed the delicious turkey and trim- mings as .per usual. Following the banquet, a giant Pep Rally was staged around the bon-fire in prep- aration for the Jamboree the next evening. Charlotte Har- graves, Pill Roeber, Nan Fugita, and Jo Horn (center) lead the enthusiastic crowd in some school yells. Several of the outstanding players (Mau- rice Hall, Olen Riggs.

Eight hundred eager spectators look on while Maurice Hall (bottom) takes a pass from Glen McArthur as Odis Brown comes up fast on the extreme right. Hall took scoring honors for the evening with a total of 1 9 points; Finch ran a close second with 14 points. 140 Hi The College Girls ' team proved at the annual Jamb- oree that the boys are not the only ones who can play basket- ball. Playing a team of Bethany town girls, the Col- lege won the opening game. Jo Horn. Ruby Wilson, and Velma Reed have a tense moment (top), the town girls gasp, and Hampton Anderson prepares to call the play.

Norman Howerton, John Hathaway, Lively Crawford, and Glenn Little stand by as seconds. Between the girls ' and boys ' games a new feature for the Jamboree was initi- ated.

Her attendants, who were nominees for queen, were Wana Walker and Stevie Hope. Glen McArthur and Deward Finch escorted the attendants. 141 ARROW 142 ES AND COLLEGES ■c:?- -juuia M ' IN MEMORIAM DR.

The voice and ' pen of Dr. R. T. Williams have roused the militant spirit, and rallied the f orces of the Church of the Nazarene ... In every great crisis we have looked to him for wise counsel and challenging leadership. He was richly endowed in qualities of body, and mind, and soul. He was mightily endowed with the power of the Holy Ghost. When the history of the Church of the Nazarene is written, the name of Dr. R. T. Williams will be among those most highly, and most deservedly honored. His contribution to the progress of the Church he loved so well can not be measured— it is greater than we now know, or ever will, ' till heaven ' s books are opened. 144 . ' 145 •QOV DON BEA ' ER. the genial President of the Student Body, was elected to membership in the WTio ' s Who in I ' Hv Truly one of B.P.C. ' s outstanding students, Don has been a leader in all phases of campus life— A Cappclla Choir member, four years; Softball letterman; lead part in the Junior Play, 194 5; song leader of the Young People ' s Department of the Sunday School, three years. Don duplicated his four years membership in the high school Honor Society by earning a place in Phi Delta Lambda during his four years in Bethany. I ' ollowing graduation, Don expects to become an industrial chemist, although he dearly loves the undertaking business. 146 I s HELEN FAYE MOORE, one of the lionie town girls, is best known on the campus for her intense interest in spiritual things. A Senior, she is a member of both the Prayer and Fasting League and the Gospel Team. For five vcars she has served capablv and earnestly as Sunday School teacher in the High Scliool Department. She has been President of the Yokemates ' this year. Helen Faye was a member of Phi Delta Lambda this year and represented her class on the Student Council for the second con- secutive time. She collects readings and poems, enjoys sewing, and is building a fine library. 148 Freshman Class President . . . Vice-President of the Prayer and Fasting League . . .

On Sundays he spends his time in Wynnewood where he pastors the Church of the Nazarenc. Durii ' g vacation he likes to hunt and fish. His nickname is Stack. 150 00 IP A k A . ' . ' A ' i Ko VO o DELENE STOCKTON, another home-town girl, has had plenty of limelight while at B.P.C. She was secretary of her Fresh- man Class, Treasurer of the Sophomores, and Student Council Representative of the Juniors. She is the only memlx;r of the Junior Class in Who ' s Who. Last year she, with Tommie Johnson, won first place in the Junior Women ' s Division at the Ada Debate Tournament. ITiis year she won distinction with an important part in the Junior Play. She is a member of tlic Honor Society. Someday she hof es to receive an A.B in Speech. 152 o  Vcc CLESl ' ER PUL ' l ' S liad been pastoring at Hennessey, Okla- homa for three months. In December tlic church discovered the need for a pastor ' s wife. Ora Lee Woods oblingingly answered the call, and everyone seems well pleased. B.P.C. ' crs will never forget Clestcr ' s characteristic little laugh. It has not yet been definitely established whether or not there is any connection between it and his wife ' s favorite saying, you ' re an old horse! He was the energetic President of his class in his Junior year. Basketball and track are his favorite sports. He plans to be an evangelist. 154 I One of tlic intellectual leaders on the campus is RACHEL BELCH KR from Forest. New Mexico. A trip to Chicago with the 411 Club, which she won as an award for her achievements in the organization, was perhaps the most outstanding event of her freshman year. 1 Icr talent in writing was displayed in her junior year w iicn she was editor of the RevciHe Ec io. In spite of many extra-curricular activities she has maintained a four-year membership in the Honor Society, which entitles her to become a permanent mem- ber of the society. A major in psychology ' and a warm personality will aid Rachel in realizing her ambition— to do personal counseling. 156 . i The popular Vice-President of the Senior Class is CHARLES EDWARD TAYLOR, cx-seniccnian with thirb, ' missions over Germany to his credit. When asked how many semesters he had been in the Honor Society he said. Not a chance! How did I get into this mess anyway? His most enjoyable pastime is singing and directing a choir cantata. This past year he lias been choir director and N.Y.P.S. President at First Church Norman, Oklahoma. He says that his wife calls him Charles Edward when she ' s peeved, but it ' s darling, in the sweetest of tones, when she wants somethmg. 158 An imposing list of sccrctanships is worthily accredited to JOY BEAVER. Her election as jot-eni-down girl for the Junior Class in ' 45 and for the Student Council this year give evidence of her increasing popularity. Aside from Don Beaver, her main interest is music. She has been a member of the A CappcUa Choir and Girls Trio. She has received both a certificate and diploma in voice. In her leisure moments she enjoys trying to recognize the works of different musical composers. Last spring she announced her intentions to replace tlic Miss in front of her name with Mrs. 160 _ . ' : ' ;?;s ; (!:- t In the Navy he was known as Doc. His wife calls him Dean Howard. But the students of B.P.C. know him best as just plain DEAN WESSELS. No one on the campus is better liked or more respected. In his Freshman year he was Student Council Representative, as a Junior he was ' ice-Presidcnt of his Class, and as a Senior he is Class President and Assistant Business Manager of the ARROW. Dean likes baseball and track, but he claims that he is not very good.

Following in the footsteps of the Master Teacher gives depth of purpose to our lives. True religion shows its influence in every part of our conduct; it is like the sap of a living tree, which penetrates the most distant bough. Thus, the religion offered to Bethany-Peniel students has been carried through the years in the lives of those who iiave gone before into the fields of harvest. The foundation of a Christian life is faith; its action, works; its temper, holiness; its aim, obedience to God in improvement of self and Ijenevolencc to men. May we so live, exemplifying the tenets of Christianity, that our lives will be the illustration of His glory. SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT THE COLLEGE CHURCH Bethany-Peniel College is a Christian institu- tion. Tlie ideals and standards of holiness arc of prime importance. Therefore, the College Chnrch is cherished as the center of religious emphasis on the campus. Each service is planned with great care so as to give the maximum of spiritual life and fervor. As one enters the sanctuary on Sunday morning he feels an immediate call to worship extended by the soft organ music. The choir, composed of students, faculty ' , and members of the com- munit} ' , lends dignit} ' and inspiration to the ser- vice with the singing of hymns and anthems as it is led by Prof. Crill, the Bethany minister of music. Dr. C. B. Strang guides the destiny of the church with ease and poise. His intensely prac- tical messages are effective guideposts for meeting life ' s situations. His vital concern for each one as an individual personality and his desire to de- velop a sound religious experience in the heart of each student makes us feel that he is our own personal friend. Dr. C. B. Strang, Pastor The Golden Anniversary Class of 1949 participates in a Convocation Service. 171 ■. ' tt m j lr Re -. A. LeRoy Taylor, Sunday School Superin- tendent. SUNDAY SCHOOL One phase of tlic religious life on the campus that probably has a more personal touch to each student than any other is the Sunday School. Since the attendance in Bethany warrants the organization of more than fifty Sunday School classes, there is abundant opportunity for College students to gain valuable train- ing in religious education. The Young People ' s Department is under the capable direction of Mrs. Vernal Dodds. It is significant that during the Six Weeks Sunday School Emphasis Campaign this department was the only one in the entire school which went over its quota. The coopera- tion that she has received this year demonstrates that the college students arc fully conscious of the genuine interest that Mrs. Dodds has for their spiritual welfare. The Activities of the College Department have been characteriz- ed by a heightened interest in the opening exercises. Each Sunday morning the young people are inspired as they sing hymns and choruses, pray together, listen to special speakers, or enjoy programs sponsored by district groups. Working to a great extent behind the scenes is one who wields a mighty influence in binding together the interests of the Col- lege, the Church, and the town— Rev. A. LeRoy Taylor, member of the Board of Trustees, Sunday School Superintendent, and Super- intendent of the Bethany Public Schools. No effort on his part is spared to give the young people of Bethany the very best in leadership. This year he chose Dr. LaDue, Prof. Hall, Mrs. Sears, Miss Lewis, and Mrs. Strang as teachers of the College classes. Mis.

This past year the N.Y.P.S. has been reorganized in order to give more persons a chance to participate and to serve the dif- ferent age groups better. Of particular in- terests to the College students are the Navi- gator and the Yokemate Societies. Rev. Raymond McClung has sened very effect- ively as the chairman of the Navigators, as- sisted by Willis Flick, xice-chairman. This group consists of young people between the ages of twenty-five and forty. Prof. D. R. Danskin, program chairman, has arranged many interesting and profitable services. One of the most impressive programs was presented bv the College Missionary Band, featuring a candle-light ceremony and testimonies by prospective missionaries. This society has been a very effective means of developing the spiritual interests of the young married couples. Miss Helen Faye Moore, popular senior co-ed, has done an outstanding job of lead- ing the Yokemates. Although in its first year, this group has had a fine attendance and the programs have been of a very high quality. With Miss Moore on the executive committee have been Elizabeth Hale, vice- chairman; Evangeline Hale, secretary; Dan- ford Alger, treasurer; and Goldie Phillips, program chairman. There has been a wide variety of programs, including pageants, the Life of Christ in pictures. Men ' s Night program, Showers of Blessing Radio Pro- gram, pictures of South America, and The Alphabet in Questions and Answers. The General N.Y.P.S. Executive Com- mittee, which correlates the activities of the different groups, has been Prof. Vernon Snowbarger, President; Harper L. Cole, Vice- President; Eugene R. Verbeck, Secretary- Treasurer; and the committee chairmen. Another important activity which fur- nishes excellent training possibilities is the Sundav morning youth work. During the Morning Worship service in the main audi- torium, the Junior Church and the Youth Church meet for their own individual ser- vices. Miss Alice Lewis is in charge of the Junior Church. She has been assisted this year by Mabel Ball, June Beaty, and Helen Faye Moore. The Youth Church is for Junior and Intermediate Department boys and girls. For the past two years Rev. Albert Gamble, prominent religious leader on the campus, has been the successful pastor. N.Y.P.S. OFFICERS: (seated) Helen Fa c . Ioorc.

CHAPEL SPEAKERS During the school year the students of Bethany- Peniel College have the privilege of meeting and hearing many of the outstanding ministers and leaders of the holiness movement. The year 1945-46 has been no exception. Eady in the fall Dr. D. Shelby Codett, editor of the Hera d of Holiness, conducted revival services in the Col- lege Church and spoke in chapel. Many young people found the Lord. Dr. Finch set the tone for the high spiritual quality of our worship periods in the first chapel service of the year. He urged that the greatest thing that we will receive on this campus is that ennoblement, enrichment, enlargement of char- acter that enables us to face life with manhood— to have vision to go into a world of tragic need, to live a life of influence that will count for God. In October we were privileged to hear Miss Geraldine Chappell, R. N., tell of God ' s keeping power in a Japanese prison camp. Charles Hastings Smith, an alumnus of B.P.C., stirred our hearts with his unique message on The Cross of Jesus. On November 5 Dr. U. E. Harding addressed the chapel on Why doesn ' t God stop war? Other noted speakers during the fall season were Chap- lain Mark Moore, an alumnus of the College and a prisoner of war in Germany; and Rev. Elmer Schmelzenbach, who was born in Africa, trained in America, and who has spent the past nine and one-half years as a missionary in Africa. Dr. Roy Cantrell, Superintendent of the Min- nesota District, was Aycock Lecturer in the fall. His messages were characterized by a dynamic love for the cause of Christ and a practical ap- plication from his many experiences. One of the most interesting and popular chapel speakers of the year was Chaplain Wilson Lan- pher, who came to us four diflFercnt times. Dur- ing the winter three representatives of our Naza- rene works in foreign countries roused our mis- sionary zeal. Revs. L lc Prescott and Lcbron- Velasqucz told of our new works in Cuba and Puerto Rico, respeetive ' y. Following the General Board meeting in Januiry, Dr. George Frame, Superintendent of the British Isles, spent several days on the campus. His keen intellect, his fer ent spirit, and his zeal for the cause of Christ will not soon Ix; forgotten. 174 Dr. Roy Cantrell , . . Aycock Lecturers . . . Rev. Lauriston DuBois In Februarv the College Board of Trustees met on the campus and in their annual chapel service presented Dr. G. B. William- son, pastor of the Kansas City First Church and former Presi- dent of Eastern Nazarene College, as the special speaker. This is always one of the most outstanding chapel periods of the year. On the 21st of the month the spring Aycock Lectures began. Rev. Lauriston J. DuBois, General Secretary of the Nazarene Young People ' s Societies, brought some very interest- ing and profitable lectures on the subject The Psychology of Holiness. The attendance was so large that it was necessar) ' to have the lectures in the Fine Arts Auditorium. Climaxing a great year of spiritual blessings, the spring re- vival was a means of genuine spiritual uplift with Rev. Mack Anderson of Ada, Oklahoma, as the evangelist. Rev. Anderson ' s messages were straight from the shoulder and driven home by interesting and forceful illustrations. The students of Bethany-Peniel College appreciate the effort of their leaders to give them the best in religious leadership. Rev. Charles Smith Rev. U. E. Harciiii Rc . Lebron-Velasquez Dr. George Frame 175 Y ' t ' J i I V PRAYER AND FASTING LEAGUE The PRAYER AND FASTING LEAGUE is the largest student reHgious organization on the campus. Each Friday noon between 1 50 and 200 young people meet in the College Church to spend an hour in conununion with the Lord. The main purpose of the league is to contribute to the development of the student ' s devotional life. The services this year have been highlighted by an intense sincerity of purpose. Following an impressive devotional program and opportunities for praver requests, the major part of the hour is spent in prayer. The unusual quality of the spiritual fervor is suggested by the fact that altar services have climaxed many of these noon-tide hours. The leaders have contributed much to the religious experiences of our young people by spending considerable time in personal work. I.,eft: Albert Gamble, President.

During the first semester the main activities included revival ser ices in Madow. Oklahoma, and Fort Worth, Texas, con- ducted by the McMahon Quartet Group; a District Young People ' s Convention by the Married Men ' s Quartet; and several tours with Dr. Finch bv the Sophomore Quartet. Second semester gave major emphasis to week-end meetings and N.Y.P.S. ser ' ices in near-by churches. Other activities of the year were centered in personal visita- tion work. In connection with the other religious organizations the entire town of Bethany was visited during the Fall and Spring Revivals. Several groups were a means of inspiration at the Crippled Children ' s Home near the College campus, where they visited on Sunday afternoons.

' endeavor. Although the group of approximately 75 students who attend arc not all called to the foreign fields, included in the membership are young people who at present are preparing for service in Africa, India, Aus- tralia, South America, Borneo, and the countries of Europe. In the regular meetings this group has been privileged to have a number of special speakers such as: Chaplain . . D. Grim, Dr. C. A. McConncll, Prof. C. H. W ' inian. and Chaplaui E. E. Hale. In one service of particular interest one of B.P.C. ' s war veterans, Livelv Crawford (Freshman), told of the need of missionary work in the South Pacific area. In an effort to increase missionary interest and influence, a number of effective programs have been given in Oklahoma churches. Those who were privileged to see and hear the Candle-light Program will not soon forget the import of its message. MISSIONARY BANII Iv«fl: William MurHh, FTcsldont Above: (First row) Uidd, Wnde.

The emptiness of heathen worship is |)ortrayed by Avis Ilinkle who kneels Ixfore an image of Buddha in the Candlehght Serviec. One of the most popular and in- teresting s|)eakers of the year was CHAPLAIN WILSON LANPIIER, who appeared in chapel four different tinics. 180 ALBERT ' GAMBLE, a leader in religious activities on the campus, helped to initiate organized visitation programs in the town of Bethany and was so successful in his endeavors that the College Church selected him to serve in the capacity of Church Visitor. 181 ARROW - «a m , i€ THE ANNUAL CHRIS 1 MAS CHORUS presented a cantata, ■The Christ Child in the church aiiditoriiini Sunday evening.

When approaching the entry way to e reading room a newcomer is impress- ed by numerous signs warning one not to talk too loudlv or hold detailed conver- sations with his friends. If he has any inclination to studiousness at all he readily appreciates this effort of Mrs. Elizabeth Willis, head librarian, to make the library condusive to study. Just inside the library doors is the desk where books are checked in and out, fines arc charged and collected, and in- formation is given free of charge. To the left of the desk is the card file in which each book and magazine in the library is listed for convenience in locating them. Behind the desk arc the stacks. They contain books on every possible subject. In 1944 the Student Council sponsored a book drive which brought the total num- ber of books to nearly 1 xOOO. Each year new books are purchased from the library fund to provide up-to-date references for the different classes. Much of the success and efficiency of the library is due to the excellent super- vision of Mrs. Willis, whose office is con- veniently located at the east of the stacks. She has spent a number of vears in public library work and holds her degree in Library Science from the University of Oklahoma. To assist in the detail work, Mrs. Willis has thirteen student assistants —eleven girls and two boys. At the west of the stacks is the reference room where one finds bound copies of the outstanding secular and religious periodi- cals covering a period of several years. In the library proper is found a large reading room accomodating approximately one hundred fifty students. Along the walls of the reading room are the reference shelves containing encyclopedias, Bible reference books, connncntaries, and other general reference materials. In conspic- ous racks, convenicnth ' placed, are cur- rent newspapers, magazines, government and other official reports, and best- sellers. Beautiful paintings adorn the walls of the library and give one a greater appre- ciation for the finer things of life. The students of Bethany Peniel College are proud of their libran ' . It is an enjoyable place to study because of the atmosphere, the pleasant lighting, the attractive way in which it is decorated, and because there one finds educational enlighten- ment, food for his soul, and books of laughter for a lonely hour. 186 Mrs. Willis.. ibolt and Ma„c„a U .,„ev ge, cpcre a «a„cc fr„„, R„,, „,„,„„„ ,„, 187 £ HOME KCONOMICS.

Margaret Girard. and bue I ampp. 188 J HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT The Home Economic Department specializes in teaching future housewives and teachers the fine points of clothing, foods, and home management. In the Foods Classes the girls not only bake good pies, but they learn to serve them with poise. Good coffee is also one of their major accomplishments. Visitors to the campus furnish a good excuse for meet- ing class requirements of preparing and serving a luncheon, a dinner, or a tea. One also learns to bake delicious, fluffy, golden-crowned biscuits and light bread. Usually some of the professors and fellow students are called in to ser ' e as official testers and critics. In the Nutrition Class, besides the heavy book-work, dietary needs based on daily campus activities are calculated and special menus are prepared. One of the most interesting courses is that of Color and Design. Here one learns the basic principles of attractive interior decorating and pleasing costume design selection. After a careful study of their present wardrobes and determining the st} ' le and color of possible additions, the students master teclniiques and skills of making and remodeling their own clothes in the Clothing Construction Classes. Upper division work in the department consists of classes in Child Development, Home Management, Home Relationships, and Home Decoration. These courses are made intensely interesting through the use of round-table discussions, guest speakers, experiments, observation, and demonstrations. 71ie department offers some forty-eight hours of work— thirty -eight of which are required for a major. Those receiving their degree in Home Economics are given a formal tea at commencement time as a fitting climax of their successful col- lege career. 189 SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Tlie Bethany-Peniel College depart- ment of science touches nearly every student on the campus sometime during his college career, because several science hours arc required for almost an - recog- nized degree. Some students feel that the time spent in a science class is mere drudgery, while others eat, drink, and talk science from dawn to dark. One earn pus critic has remarked that the only people who reall) ' dislike all the sciences are those who know absolutely nothing or very little about them, for once one really understands what science is about, he can ' t help being interested in some phase of it. Zoology is taught by Prof. E. V. Greer. This year he has instructed the largest class ever enrolled in this subject about the intricacies of life from the anatomy of an amieba to the discction of a cat. Numerous colored charts and enlarged models of various organisms have been added to the equipment this year. Mau- rine Dickerson and Grace Horst are the laboratory assistants. Herman Parrish, an ex-serviceman, is teaching the navigation classes. He is a former army captain and was instructor in an army flying school in Texas, con- sequently Mr. Parrish ' s knowledge from books has been amply supplemented by practical experience. The chemistry department is rapidly developing under the expert direction of Prof. Boyd Shannon. Classroom and laboratory instruction has been greatly aided by the addition of new materials. Prof. Shannon has given outstanding evi- dence of his efficiency in teaching a large class of general chemistry students all about molecules and atoms, and their reactions. X ' irginia Moore, Don Beaver, and Ann France provide excellent as- sistance in mixing those mysterious un- knowns and answering many questions for the newcomers. Prof. Hall makes you feel right at home in the plnsics class. From his ample in- struction one learns the wh s and where- fores behind the electric light, the radio, the combustion engine, and the laws of physical science. In this class. Prof. Hall passes all of the (jucstions that he cannot answer on to his assistant, Calvin Rain- bolt, who invariably knows where to find the solution— See Prof. Hall. 190 SCIENCE. Prof. Shannon and Herman Parrish try a new experiment with a comphcated apparatus. 191 COMMKRCIAl,. Prof. Danskin looks on as Ins typing dass -heats out its assic-nmcnt. 192 COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT One of the newest departments on the campus is the Commercial Department. Professor D. R. Danskin has efficiently organized and co-ordinated the subjects offered, thereby making a strong depart- ment. The courses in business educa- tion are of several kinds designed to meet different needs. The student whose aim is to master the techniques applicable to secretarial positions may follow the Two- Year Secretarial Course. Those inter- ested in business education preparatory ' to teaching in the public schools may follow the curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Education. Students who receive this degree meet the current requirements for a life certi- ficate for teaching in the public schools of OJdahoma. The Business Law class is one of the most interesting. It affords one an oppor- tunity to become acquainted with the intricacies of the law in business dealings. Practical experience is gained through presentation of cases in the classroom and by excursions to the law courts in Okla- homa City for observation. Most of the other courses in the Com- mercial Department are on different phases of stenography. Shorthand is of- fered, and practice is given in taking dic- tation and transcription. The more modern elements of office procedure are included in instruction in the use of the dictaphone. Students who have enrolled in these classes have been able to put their knowledge to use in doing secretary work in the administration offices or for the professors. Typing is a very popular subject. It has been discovered by many students that secretaries are not the only ones who benefit from this class. Term papers, English composition, and note- books have a far more pleasing appear- ance when the author has learned the fine points of typing. Bookkeeping and accounting are also offered. These are subjects which are useful to the average person in his every- day life. One learns how to make out a personal budget and put it into practice, as well as the more complicated proced- ures of conmiercial bookkeeping. r 193 BOOK FIVE • • • increase a in ft iik avor wLtn man I It may be elevating symplionic strains; the inspiration to follow In His Steps, motivated by the challenge of a dramatic presentation; or the recital on ENOCH ARDIiN that deepens appreciation for the expression ot, literature— but it all pertains to the refinement of cultural tastes by aesthetic training. The quickening of the ECHO reporter ' s news-ear in response to unusual commotion indicates a growth of personality and practice in portraying school life. Whether one is enticed to become an ARRO ' salesman, write copy, interview characters. or develop films, he is en- riching himself by the ersatility of his campus experiences. The Honor Socict pin wearer realizes that knowledge must be worked for, studied for. thought for. and prayed for. True cultivation is tliat which gives us sympathy with every form of human life, enabling us to work most suc- cessfully for its adxanccnient. Then it is that the common and the uncommon things are ethereal i .cd and animated by the sheen of true appreciation. CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT 1% t ' l I B if H i i B HfHHIH o n HVv ' 1 y - «%sw i ' ' W ' ' ' ' ' jSh -4 Harriett Adanis plays the practice organ FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT The Fine Arts Department is one of the fastest growing departments of Bethany- Peniel College. During the second semester of this year 380 students were en- rolled. There were approximately 600 private lessons given each week. The entire curriculum has been revised to meet the state requirements for degrees and the requirements of the National Association of Schools of Music. A three manual Moler Church organ has been purchased by the department and will be installed in the near future. This instrument will be known as the H. O. Fanning Memorial Pipe Organ. In order to make organ lessons available this year, an electric practice organ (pictured above) was installed, and seven students have taken lessons. Degrees are offered as follows: B. Mus. in piano, voice, organ, and church music. B. x%. Ed. in vocal and instrumental public school music. The B. F. A. is offered for those who desire a general fine arts degree. English and Speech are included in this latter degree. 197 Peggy Doing, Clestcr Ptilfs, rccifaJists A CAPPELLA and TREBLE CHOIR The two most important vocal groups on the campus are the A Cappclla Choir and the Treble Choir directed by Prof. C. C. Crill and Miss Elizabeth Nelson, respectively. Each group is limited to forty voices selected each semester. The officers of A Cappclla Choir are: President, George Moore; Vice-President, Carroll Harville; Secretary, Elizabeth Hale. The A Cappclla Choir sang one Sunday evening of each month at the local First Church. It has also presented pro- grams at Norman, Guthrie, Oklahoma City First Church, Britton, and the Youth for Christ in Oklahoma City. In the spring a tour of the Western Oklahoma, Eastern Oklahoma, and Kansas Districts was made. Arrangements are in progress for future tours that will cover the entire Educational Zone in the next four years. The Treble Choir is an all girls ' organiz.ation with Doris Waggoner as the accompanist. President is Nova Baker, and the Secretary is Reba West. Dressed in chic uniforms of black skirts and white blouses with a monogramed treble clef, the group makes a very impressive appearance. Some of the out- standing numbers presented by the choir have been The Lord ' s Prayer, So ' s I Can Write My Name, and the old favorite, Were You There, sung as background music for the reading, The Crucifixion, from God ' s Trombone read by Mabel Cooner. This organization has appeared in ensemble programs, church services, and at the Youth for Cbiist in Oklahoma City.

It has become one of the most popular campus organizations, having presented numerous concerts and programs. The first presentation of the band was on Jamboree night, and tlie last appearance of the year was a concert in May, which proved to be the crowning success of the year ' s efforts. With the return of a number of former servicemen, the band has been greatly strengthened both in quality and quantity. Among the outstanding additions is Willis Flick, a former pro- fessional clarinet and .saxaphone artist, who has been a student instructor in woodwind instruments. Numbers included in their repertoire are: Morning, Noon, and Night Overture. Invitation To the Waltz, and Ballet Eg pticn Suite. A small band, composed of ten instruments, has played each week for the basketball games. Prof. Thorne also directs the college orchestra which is a combination of string, woodwind, brass, and prccussion in- struments. It has played three successful concerts and made appearances at the Oklahonia City First Church and at a student body assembly. Prominent among their selections are: Triumphal March, II Bachio. X ' alsc Triste, In a Persian Market, and Minuet in K Flat. 200 PIANO ENSEMBLE: Lois Ebinc Stone, Doris Waggoner. Rosic llollii s worth. Earlenc Hams.

This year there have been nine ladies ' organizations and five men ' s. Prominent among the girl ' s groups are the Abilene and Gleo Trios and the Aeolian Quartet. During the year they have contributed music for chapel programs, church services, and college tours. A trio of prospec- tive missionaries includes ' ivian Bcckel. Daurthymaric Faulkner, and Goldic Phillips. A sextet, composed of Reba West, Mary Jo Horn, Mabel Cooner, Nova Baker, Ann France, Mary Lou Thompson was selected from the Treble Choir.

The McMahon Evangelistic Party kept busy in week-end services, young people ' s, rallies, and large- scale revivals. The Married Men ' s Quartet participated in the Kansas District N. Y. P. S. Convention, and sang in neighboring churches. Each of these groups has en- deavored to make a lasting contribu- tion to the spiritual welfare of the churches where they have sung.

Mrs. Liindy, Prof. McClung SPEECH DEPARTMENT Tlie Speech Department deals with four phases of expression: public speaking, debate, interpreta- tion, and dramatics, ' rhere is a total enrollment of 225 in tiie department and five teachers. In the annual dramatics presentation a series of four one act plays were given. These were: The Confessional, directed by Delcne Stock- ton; a comedy, Thursday Evening, directed by Helen Faye Nioore; a -tragedy, Hearts Endur- ing, directed by Blanche Andrew; and a religious play, The Challenge of the Cross, directed by Ruth Parham. Three students presented graduate speech re- citals. On November 2 Blanche Andrew gave An Evening With Tennyson, featuring a con- densation of the famous poem Enoch Arden. A male quartet sang Crossing the Bar and Sweet and Low. Mariana Sears provided back- ground music on the organ. Wana Walker featured Poetry Written in America ' s Three Greatest Wars— the Ci il War. World War, I, and World War II. Patriotic decorations gave an appropriate setting, and favor- ite songs of the different wars were sung by the Sophomore quartet. On November 30, Helen Faye Moore presented Tell Me the Story of Jesus by giving in scrip- ture and poetrv ' the various phases of the life of Christ. The outstanding part of her program was a portion from the famous book, The Robe, by Llo) ' d Douglas. She was assisted by Carroll Harville and V irginia Hoag.

Participating in several tournaments, the Bethany teams came out on top in com- petition with leading colleges and univers- sities of the middle western states. The question this year was, RESOLVED: that the United States should direct its policy toward the establishment of free trade among the nations of the world. Going to Ada, Oklahoma, for the first tournament December 1 to 3, the teams made a good showing. Deward Finch and Tommie Johnson were undefeated in the mixed division, and Myrna Close and Blanche Andrews placed first in the Junior women ' s division. A trip to Springfield, Missouri, in January netted a world victon,. However, George Moore came through with a second in oratory. The whole debate class was privileged to participate in a practice tournament at the Universit ' of Oklahoma at Norman. Beth- any-Peniel College was honored to have Tommie Johnson chosen as one of four speakers to appear before the Oklahoma Education Association in an exhibition forum. The biggest and most important tourney of the year, The Savage Forensic, came dur- ing the first week of March at Durant, Okla- homa. In this event eighteen states were represented by their leading universities. Competition was keen. After sweating out the preliminarv ' rounds and pulling through to the finals our team of Deward F inch and Tommie Johnson defeated a crack team from University of Louisiana to win the trophy in the senior mixed division. ■ x Gciic Oalalxi Ed Haddock Tommie Jolmson Deward I ' incli Debate Tropliv 205 PLAY CAST: (standing) J.

(Seatct l Harriett Adams, Ann JUNIOR CLASS PLAY The Junior Class Play this year, according to students, faculty, ministers, and friends, would be a credit to any school, anywhere. In keeping with the high ideals of the Col- lege, a script with a definite spiritual em- phasis— IN HIS STEPS — was chosen. Mrs. Tahnadge Stands, a major in the Speech Department, directed the cast in a most efficient manner. Playing the part of Rev. Maxwell was George Moore. A great deal of the credit for the success of the play goes to Paul Simpson, the stage manager, who also played the part of Rev. Gray. The ticket sales contest, won by Don and Joy Beaver, was such a booming success that it was necessary to give the performance on two separate evenings. Those largely respon- sible for the excellent organization of the sales program and fine exhibition of the class project were the President of the Class, Jim Hamilton, and the Sponsor, Prof, Welch. 206 HONOR SOCIETY: (Sfandiiig) Gene Verbeck.

Gene Verbeck, President PHI DELTA LAMBDA Tlie Phi Delta Lambda Honor Societ ' is not necessarily made up of the brains of the college. As President Verbeck pointed out to a chapel group, the members of this group have been successful mainly because they study consistently, work hard, and use their time wisely. Membership in this organization is achieved when one has earned a grade point ratio of 2.50 for two consecutive semesters while carrying a full college load. Permanent membership is accorded those students who have a four-vear ratio of at least 2.40. In the spring two major activities were sponsored by the Eta Chapter. A very impressive candle-light installation service was presented in chapel in which the new members, elected at the beginning of second semester, were officially taken into the society. Those recei ing recognition in this program were; Nova Baker, Howard Bynum, Melva Jean Karns, Colleen Karns, Claude Northcutt, Loretta Oakes, Marieta Snowbarger, Bob Troutman, and Eula Medc Simpson. The year ' s activities closed with a banquet in March. Tlie officers of the Chapter are Eugene ' crbeck. President; George Moore, Vice-President; Grace Horst, Secretary; and Miss Ruth Fess, Sponsor. 207 ARROW Work on the 1946 ARROW began last spring soon after tlic student bodv elections. Plans were laid on the basis of not only pub- lishing a book for the enjoyment of the student body, but of preparing one that could be sent out over the Educational Zone to portray the advantages of Bethany-Peniel College. Ticn plans for production were com- pleted an enormous task loomed up before the staff— the preparing of at least 100 pages more than ever before, the inaugurating of a subscription campaign, the contacting of all the churches on the Zone for advertise- ment, the taking and developing of hundreds of pictures . . . November 16 the Subscription Campaign was launched in a rousing Student Body Assembly. The results of the initial attempt at volume sales for the ARROW was en ' successful. The Seniors won the class com- petition with sales equalling 58 V of the membership of their class. Curtis Horn and Mar) ' Ellen Ilcrrin won individual honors with 43 and 36 sales rcspcctivch . Louis McMahon, assisted by Dean Wes- sels. did a grand job as Business Manager, formulating the largest ad ertising section ever to appear in an ARROW. The credit for doing all of tlic dirh ' work and supervising the make-up of the book goes to Almeta Mizell, the Associate Editor. Tliere was never a task too hard for her to undertake. 1 1.irptr L.

Tlie fact that there are a larger number of write-ups in this ARROW than usual made her job just that much harder. The lonesome job of the staff— darkroom manager— fell to the girl from Minnesota, Ethel Francis. Her patience and good nature helped to balance the crew. In order to keep the Editor and Business Manager straight, Jackie Mizell and Grace Horst were hired as Staff Secretary and Financial Secretan, ' . Many others shared in writing, make-up, photography, and selling ads to help make this book what it is. Our ever-faithful sponsor. Prof. Thome, was always on hand when problems were to be worked out, when major decisions of policy were formulated, and when refresh- ments were ser ed. And what of the Editor? He sat back and cracked the whip while the others did the work. After all, there have to be some ad- vantages in being boss. Several innovations are included in the 1946 ARROW— infra-red photography, in- creased number of pages, more literary ma- terial, student index, kodachronie pictures, and, most of all, the lithographic process of reproduction. We hope that ou will be proud of vour ' 46 ARRO ' ! Louis O. McMalion. Business Manager Elizabeth Ilalc. Ijferan Direcfor Almeta Mizell, Associate Editor Dean W ' essels, Asst. Bus. Afgr.

REVEILLE ECHO STAFF The work of the Reveille Echo staff was highly efficient this year in making their pubhcation a complete and accurate report of all happenings on the campus. Realiz- ing that the college newspaper is but a mir- ror, e ery news report was brought before the public in its own true light. The editor and the staff both desired that the paper be in line with high journalistic standards and at the .same time portray Bethany-Peniel ' s own distinctive spirit. Fail- ure to take this into consideration would indeed be a fallacy and the Echo would fall short of its own purpose. During the first semester, under the edi- torship of Perry Tudor, the paper was changed from four to eight pages. This gave the publication a more attractive ap- pearance, and pro ided room for more ad- vertising and news articles. Bruce Wade, Business Manager, who has a knack for salesmanship, was so successful with his advertising section that, with the allotment from the student council, there was sufficient money to provide added equip- ment for the staffrooni. Two portable t pe- writers, beveled-edged glass desk tops, fluo- rescent desk lamps, a metal filing cabinet, a Meriam-Webster unabridged dictionary, sev- eral large waste baskets, and a gas stove were purchased. At mid-semester Alma Jean Lunn, pop- ular junior co-ed, was selected to guide the fortunes of the Echo for the remainder of the vear. She endeavored to edit a paper that would have public appeal with the students, the faculty, and the college con- stituency. Alma Jean ' s right-hand-man and Associate Editor was her ' kid ' brother, Mer- vel. It seems that the Lunn ' s are naturals in the publishing business. Together they have done a grand job of presenting an Echo which was enthusiastically received by everyone. Seven departmental editors assisted in the 1945-46 production: Charlene Moore (News), Elizabeth Hale, (Rchgioii). Grace Horst (Feature), Olen Riggs and Mar ' Ellen Hcrrin (Sports), and Lee Dona Kerr (. akc up). Bonnie Cop- pock, cartoonist, gave sparkle to the paper and also to the sfaffroom by her interesting drawings. One of the most important niem- lx;rs of the staff. Prof. J. W. Moore, sponsor, worked quietly behmd the scenes, but his advice and counsel were major factors in giving the paper its high qualit -. 210 STAFF: (Fiist row) Grace Ilorst, Chadene Moore, Vangie Hale, Elizabeth Hale, Mary Ellen Herrin.

In recognition of outstanding service, honor keys were given to the departmental editors as a permanent recog- nition of their fine service in journaHsm this year. The entire volume of the fourteen issues of this year ' s Echo was bound and presented to the college library to be a part of the permanent files. It is hoped that each future editor will make it part of his policy to give suc- ceeding classes an opportnuity to view the highlights of the past terms with a bound volume of his publication. The Reveille Echo has efficiently served its purpose- students found outlets for creative expression, the spirit of cooperation was generated in working to meet bi-monthly deadlines, interests of the college were unified and pro- moted, and the leadership qualities in the various editors were developed.

It is here that one can go to play ping pong, pound on the piano, gossip with a friend, eat his meals, buy an ice cream cone, let off steam, or just do nothing. The casual at- mosphere created by Papa Dragon — Albert Gamble— and his helpers contributes in a large measure to the success of the College recreational center. In the spring of 1944 the Drag came into being. At that time there was one large room with a make-shift counter and some game equipment. The Student Council in 1945 took as their project for the year the remodeling of this establishment and in- stalled an A-1 fountain with a separate lunch room. This year the Drag has increased in popularity and usefulness and relieved many otherwise dreary hours for the campus gang. Albert Gnnil lc. Pjp.i ll ' .i.; :!

We cater to the College Trade 243 Up tliroiigh the years, Lady Fortune has laid a favorable hand upon the destiny of Oklahoma. Since 1907 when she was admitted to the Union. Oklahoma has grown from wild Indian territory to the thriving enterprising state it is today. Tlirough these progressive years, natural gas has played a vital part in the development of your state. The contribu- tions made by natural gas are hundred-fold . . . and we in the gas industr}- take pride in presenting to you the record of accomplishments made by natural gas in vour state during the past several decades. Back in the early days before Okia honia became a state, the only peo- ple ii.sing natural gas were those living close to sources of supply. This was largely due to lack of pipe line facilities. TODAY • Today, nearly evervone in Okla honia enjoys good, efficient gas ser ice to heat their homes in winter, to cook their meals 365 da ' S in the year, and for dozens of other household uses. ' By 1910 natural gas pipe line facil- ities had been expanded. Almost every home in metropolitan areas was using natural gas because of its many, many advantages over other types of fuel. Natural gas service, being more dependable, less costly, and more efficient, opened a new era of living for ( Jklalioni.iu ' i. The fact that natural gas is used so nearly unanimouslv bv Oklahomans contributes greatly to keeping Okla- homa cities clean and he;ilthv. In your citv there is neither smoke nor soot to mar the sparkling bcautv of vour modern buildings, schools, churches and parks.

Then came the printer, heaven-appointed prophet of the new ages to be, opening the doors to worlds unknown. Civilization leaped forward, alive and eager, romp- ing through the years, scattering new ideas with a prodigal hand as seeds into the fertile soil of human minds. Todav, thanks to the printed word, the common man, conscious of his powers, may look upon a broader horizon than did the wisest men of old. Tomorrow, perchance, the sky will brighten into an unclouded day of human progress— a day worthy of the cumulative efforts of the ages. ira Y©= iJay r v Qimipaini nmny PRINTING jMUjfJtflfllitllftl LrmoGRAPniNG 408-14 NORTHWKST SIX ' III ST.
