QAilien Qjou QAM Qipcm a Qtat “Everywhere water is a thing of beauty, gleaming in the dewdrop; singing in the summer rain; shining in the ice-gems till the leaves all seem to turn to living jewels; spreading a golden veil over the setting sun; or a white gauze around the midnight moon.” J. B. Gough The fourth annual Golden Trident swim show followed in the tradition of greatness which was established by its predecessors. The show was presented during the first week in May and the five performances were a brilliant display of this group’s many months of hard work. The script for “When You Wish Upon A Star,” the 1960 review, was written by Bev Broehm. The planning of the costumes and choreography for this story of a little girl named Eloise was the work of the swim club members, themselves. For the show this year, the synchronized swim club directed the Campus School students in one of the numbers. The Diving Club appeared in the show and presented the most entertaining in clown diving and also executed the finest in exhibition diving. Added to the spectacle there were varied, special lighting effects and beautiful music which were used throughout the show and when combined seemed to be a dream come true.

Convocation “There is but one virtue—the eternal sacrifice of self” The season of Spring is traditionally the time for convocations and honor ceremonies. Among the many in OSC history, one of the most outstanding was held in the Spring of 1959. At a convocation ceremony, Forrest R. Polk, President Emeritus, was honored. President Polk was presented with gifts by his faculty and a portrait of the president was presented to the college by members of the faculty and the student body of OSC. The President’s many years of service were recalled and a tribute was paid to the man who served OSC for so many years and steered it onward into so many new fields — playing a unique role in its expansion. The portrait now hangs in the Little Theatre with those of other past presidents. Pr.sid.nl and Mrs. Polk goi 0 t|OJ. ,ook whiU OSC looks on — forever. Dr. Doncon pr.s.nl.d »h.
