In August The Weather Was Warm . . . President and Mrs. Phillips entertained entering freshmen at Baldwin Place dur- ing orientation. Suzanne Owens and Tammie Shepherd smile for the camera while Doug Lunsford, an orientation counselor, appears to have designs on President Jack Phillips ' s punch. Doug Lunsford watches in the background, Chuck Wood sits this one out, and Mike Smith shows his form at balloon bobbling as Jill Garner and Jennifer Van Sickle keep an eye on the proceedings. Lighthouse Singers Mindy Starr, Don Gilbert, and Ann Naglee have a friendly tussle over who gets in the swim first at a retreat at Pine Mountain State Resort Park at the beginning of the fall semes- ter.

■ Tension mounted as the drilling rig (right) bore downward into the earth. Harold Jones and Dr. Deril Mays (above) were frequently on hand to observe progress. Mr. Jones proposed to President Phillips that a gas well on Union College property might be feasible, and Dr. Mays contributed much to the project from his experience in drillin oil wells in the Barbourville area. Wiser Oil Co. officials (below) measure the flow of gas from the well as Marshall Potter, Union ' s Director of Buildings and Grounds (left), and Edward Black, Vice President for Adminis- tration (center) look on in the background. Cecil Wilson (right), Union College trustee, expresses the concern everyone felt at this crucial moment. The gas was there, however! Wiser Oil employees put a control device on the outlet of the well as Milton Town- send and Walter Powell look on.

... But In January Came Snow The snow did not stop the active men in Stevenson Hall, however. (At left) Alvin Bailey moves to intercept Tim Gurran who is carrying the ball as the snow falls with the same abandon the players seem to have. (Below) Several of the men began to roll up a snowball on the front campus that grew bigger and bigger as they toiled to push it up in the direction of Centennial Hall. They finally managed to push it into the dormitory quad- rangle, and what with one thing and another, they added to it un- til the monster in the large pho- tograph was the result. The small picture shows the work in progress with Wally Eccleston, Mike Miller, Mosheer Abdel- Galil, Jason Wick, and master builder Ted Abner who is sculpting the upper part of the creation. In the large photo- graph, Roby Stamper, one of the original snowballers is second from left. 1 I , •Mint ii r
