Their good ideas and ability to carry them out were shown in many ways as the year progressed and they have proved themselves capable of step- ping into the places of leadership next year as seniors. Early in the year the iuniors all piled on a hay- rack for an evening of fun. At their destination they were greeted with pizza and a good film. Later the juniors and seniors enjoyed a roller-skating party to- gether. The iuniors worked hard planning the Junior- Senior Banquet and it proved to be a success. Althought they did study a little on the side, the juniors were always ready for a good time. How did they do it? was the question asked by many as they watched the waterfall in action. This realistic display by the juniors was admired by all. ,Q 15' an army -' , X Cds! I QQ in qw. bf Alex Gbayee Chicago, Ill. Wendy Geurkink Wheaton, Ill. Chuck Gieser Wheaton Ill.

Al- ready their determination to win has been seen in the way they won second place with their homecoming display. The sophomore hayride got off to a good start in spite of the fact that the iuniors accidentally took their bus. However the rest of the evening proved that all's well that ends well. Roller-skating at an Arlington Heights roller ring started off the big party given by the sophomores to the fresh- men. After skating everyone returned to the gym for a good time playing games and filling themselves with Bar-B-Ques. Time will reveal all of the potentialities that lie in the class of '58 as they continue to call on the abundant reserves in Christ. oh Vs These sophomores were relieved when Biologys Big Bugaboo Mr Js famous leaf fest WCS OVBI' Gerald Gedde Chicago Ill.

Whatever the activity, the freshmen turned out in full force to enioy the fun. At the freshman party held in the Oury's barn, thirty-eight out of a class of forty- two showed up for the games, and of course, the refreshments. With Miss Everett and Mr. Swanson as sponsors, they took in their stride all the problems of being a freshie. Not only have they adjusted well to Academy life but they have also been active in almost every organization and activity, showing interests as diverse as the places from which they come.

Matt. 7:25 CYF Every Tuesday as we saw Gary Card or Merold Westphal get up in chapel we learned to expect the announce- ment of an interesting program. Whether it was a film like Light in the Jungle or a guest speaker from the college or a musical program by Academy students, Chapel Youth Fel- lowship was the place for a blessing and Christian fellowship. CYF also sent out gospel teams to churches in the area. This year teams went out to twenty-six churches representing Christ and Wheaton Academy. :I Charlotie Wescofi and Bruce praises of theur lord es R Van Kompen 3 Gale slngmg 3 31 F Dr Cole answering the many questions that puzzles today's teenagers. Red Available Harper, I am always available for God's work , autographs Bible for interested students. CHAPEL Dr. George Cole in the first sem- ester evangelistic services in- spired us to live better Chris- tian lives by pointing out the ingredients of a mature Chris- tian. Saved Separated Studies the Bible Seeks God in prayer Steadfast in the church Spends Sunday properly Stewardship Saved to serve He dwelled on prayer as one of the most important of these. Prayer starts out with confession which through faith brings for- giveness which leads to restitu- tion and then we have unity with God. These messages taken to heart helped many to live a better and more mature Christian life. Zandt, ,l , J. l SPEAKERS Rev. Bob Murfin speaking from Romans 7 and 8 gave us very inspiring messages at the second semester evangelistic services. His talks were spiced with his experiences in the Pacific during World War II. He brought the Holy Spirit out of the theology books into our understanding. Every Christian has problems which the Holy Spirit solved through Christ's Death and Res- urection and it's accepting this victory that brings blessing. As we accept Christ into our life we must also let the Holy Spirit come in. It's not how much of the Holy Spirit we can have but how much of us He can have. Paul Riemann gave several interesting and practical messages on the Christian life. Rev. Bob Murfin won a place in everyones hearts with his quiet and friendly way of talking with you.

I .L STUDENT COUNCIL Student Council members were usual- ly thought of as lucky kids who got out of one class a week, but when they did so, they really worked. The Talent Revue and the Honor Study Hall are two new things which the Council planned and presented. The second annual Student-Teachers' Day and C-Day were held after planning and preparation by the Council. Ful- filling President Chuck Walles' cam- paign promises was another iob. This included the painting of signs around the Academy and fixing up the Conservatory with new lights and paint. With the Lord as their guide this years' Student Council accom- plished a great deal for the school.

Meeting every other Tuesday after school, Gamma Sigma Chi learned about such things as dating, person- ality development, traveling, college. Miss Springer and Mrs. J were sponsors this year and worked dil- igently with the girls. For each meet- ing, a girl from the dorm would ioin with a town girl in the planning and serving of refresments to the group. Expenses for each ot these affairs was limited to five dollars. The girls went Christmas caroling to- gether and later in the spring gave a shower for Mrs. J , The big event ofthe year was the annual style show which, this year, was named Col- legiate Classics. At this event, the girls demonstrated some of the things they had learned. Ruth Seely models the dress which she made in Col- legiate Classics, the Gamma Sigma Chi style show.

Thinking up new cheers, making posters, planning pep rallys, and prac- ticing through out the year wasn't always easy but these girls kept it up and certainly made the school proud of them. The Frosh-Soph cheerleaders also worked hard this year and by keeping the games lively and peppy the attendance to these games increased. For all their time and energy these girls too deserve our applause.

GIRLS' ATHLETICS Besides presenting an opportunity for girls to participate in various sports, the G.A.A. also afforded fun and relaxation at num- erous hikes, outings, and parties. Starting out the year with the annual get acquainted bar-b-que, the ,Girls Ath- letic Association continued with a breakfast hike and slumber party. After a day of initiating the newcomers, all the G.A.A.ers went out to Herricks Lake for a steak fry. In December the girls collected and re- paired toys which they gave to the Mex- ican children at a Christmas party. The year ended with the unforgettable over- night. Tournaments in soccer, volleyball, bad- minton, and softball filled the sports schedule for G.A.A.ers every Monday and Wednesday throughout the year. Student Leaders is an organization of iunior and senior girls interested in acquir- ing and developing additional skills in various sports. Miss Rust as sponsor also helped to give the girls practical experience using the fundamentals taught in the gym classes. Volleyball and basketball were the principal sports played on Thursday eve- nings. Several trips were made by the Student Leaders to the Geneva State Train- ing School for Girls in nearby Geneva to present a Christian testimony through active play. This year saw the formation of a new pep club known as the Girls' W Club. This consisted of a girls who were both seen and heard at Academy athletic events. The Girls' W Club was evident with their waving pom-poms of maroon and white accompanied by their enthusiastic encour- agement. The spirit which these girls added to the games was greatly appreciated by the Academy teams. It is hoped that from this beginning, the Girls' W Club in fu- ture years will be equally as enthusiastic at the games and through further organ- ization sponsor additional activities.

BAND Under the direction of Mr. Beniamin the band performs in its Homecoming Concert. 50 Under the direction of Mr. Beniamin the Band had a very successful year. Their first performance was at Home- coming where they presented a peppy concert for the alumni. For their Christmas concert the Band decorated the chapel with evergreens beauti- fully which added to their excellent music. They also took part in the Second Annual Academy Music Festi- val. The Annual Spring Concert of the Band was a concert which will be long remembered by all when again the combination of good music and decorations made the concert unfor- gettable. Taking a week from school the Band toured the East giving con- certs between Wheoton and Roch- ester, New York. The Band for the first time in its six years entered the state contest. Though a small group of only 32 pieces the Band gave the best con- certs possible and were used mightily for the Lord. i 4 5 .- - . X N Bible Quiz Team: Seated, B. Vander Molen, Glazier, G.

During the second semester they sang almost every Sunday evening in some Chicago area church. The two week spring tour took the Choir through twelve states and as far south os Texas. The Annual Spring Concert was the finest ever given During the sacred portion, while the choir was robed, a reverent silence came across the audience. For their secular numbers the members wore formals and tuxedoes which under the lights made the scene a riot of color. The day after graduation, as the plans were at Com- pass deadline, the choir would leave for New York City giving several concerts on the way. Then on June T4 they would leave on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines for London. After a tour of England and Scotland the Choir will travel in Holland, Switzerland, Germany, and France giving concerts in praise of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. On July 31 they will leave Europe for the United States where they will give the last concert of the tour at Pierce Memorial Chapel on August 3. Mr. Benjamin and his songsters again walked away with high honors at the State Music Contest in Peoria. X 1?

FOOTBALL With five conference wins and one loss our Warriors placed second in the Red Division and defeated the second place team in the White Division of the Private School League. Senior Dick Kay and Juniors Chuck Gieser and Dave Socash were named All-Con- ference. The whole team fought hard and provided a good season of football this year. Against St. John's Military Academy, in their first game the Warriors got off to a slow start. The score at the end of the first' half was 20-O, but the fellows fought back. Halfback Gardziella scored the first touch- down by running around end from 30 yards out. After a beautiful 40 yard pass from Quarterback Carlson, Gardziella went over for the second TD. The game ended 20-12. In the Immaculate Conception game the following Saturday a week of hard work was noticeable. l.C. was the champion of their own league last year. Wheaton got the first TD as Carlson threw a pass to Halfback Duddleston. ln the next two quarters l.C. scored. CPA A.. Gardziella eyes a Harvard man as Sosach carries The ball close behind.

Duddleston started the ball rolling as he went 45 yards for a TD in the first minute of the game. The team kept the score moving and at the end of the half the score was 25-O. In the second half Nanfelt and Huffman completed the scoring with the reserves helping. North Shore, later to become 1955 Conference Champions, was the toughest opponent for the War- riors. We had the team to beat North Shore, but we just didn't have the fire that it takes. The game ended 28-12, with Kay running 70 yards on a kick-off return and Socash on a line plunge for the two touchdowns. Luther North was met the next week with all the more determination. The Warriors beat them 31-18. Three of the 5 TD's were scored by passes from Quar- terback Bob Carlson. Two of the passes were to Dud- dleston and the other to Gardziella. Socash plunged over the line and ran for the other two touchdowns. Luther South, a team that tied North Shore, was determined to win their home-coming game, but this did not discourage our team. The Warriors went onto that field all all fired up and came off with a 20-7 win. The first TD was made by the team marching 99 yards down the field with Socash driving over the goal line. Then Luther South scored. Kay received their kick-off and went to the 41 yard line. The team plowed for the second TD from there. After the half Gardziella completed the scoring.

Socash and Gardziella also scored. The game ended 37-0. Harvard was in the second place in the White Division and the Warriors second place in the Red Division as the conference season closed. The Warriors and Harvard played an unofficial playoff in a mud bowl. The final score was 18-13, Wheaton on the top. The first TD was made by Socash as he went 42 yards off tackle. Next came a thrill- ing run by Gardziella as he returned a kick-off 80 yards for a TD. In the third quarter End Kay caught a pass from Carlson. He was almost down when he lateralled to Van Kampen, and Van Kampen went on for our last touchdown. Harvard had a first down three yards from a touchdown when the final whistle blew. Batavia High School was our last game and we were defeated 26-7. Dave Socash went around end for our TD. He also ran over for the extra point. With one-half of the first string Juniors, a good founda- tion has been laid for next year's team. l '36 lv .

BASKETBALL A winter with a lot of thrilling games was provided by our varsity basketball team who through much practice and hard work earned a record of nine wins and eleven loses. The warriors started off their conference basketball season on a victorious note as they downed Glenwood 74-44, with all- conference Dan McCarrell scoring 24 points. Having lost three non-league games, the team then traveled to Delafield, Wisconsin, to face St. John's Military Academy. Wheaton got off to a slow start but came up to trail by 2 points at the half. McCarrell's 22 points helped them pull away to a 64-5'l victory. The following Tuesday North Shore played host to our Warriors and handed them their first con- ference defeat 74-57. After Christmas vaca- tion Walther Lutheran, newest member of the PSL, became an easy victim, 62-32. The next night in the College Alumni Gym we handed Lake Forest a 50-38 loss. Bob Van Kampen sparked these two wins with good defensive play while collecting 30 points. Next the Warriors had three nights of hard luck. The Luther South conference battle was lost in the first quarter as the Braves outscored Wheaton 17-4. The rest of the contest saw very even scoring but the Warriors failed to make up their early deficit, losing by 13 points. Playing their best game of the season, McCarrell and Kraft brought the Warriors to within six baskets of upsetting the powerful Colonels from Francis Parker. Christian then set the Warriors back with a 7'l-45 shellacking as Wheaton failed to score a basket in the third quarter. The following night in the Academy gym, an inexperienced and small Timothy Christian team lost 68-47, with Wheaton getting their fifth win of the season. W Batavia 34 I.

Facing North Park the next Friday, we fell to their tremendous scoring punch 70-41, with the two Johnsons, Lael and Ralph scoring over 45 points for the Vikings. North Shore's Raiders, who went on to win the champion- ship, took the floor against Wheaton. Our Warriors, who had lost earlier to the Winnetka team, got sweet re- venge as they left the court with a sparkling 18 point victory. Kraft led the way with 21 points followed by McCarrell with 15. University High playing its usual stall offense was beat at their own game 44-27, as the Warriors held the ball for as much as four minutes. Wheaton then fell upset victim to the hustling Luther North team losing by four points. Immac- ulate Conception followed getting their second win of the season over the Academy, 61-48. Smith lets fly with a iump shot against Timothy Christian. In a very exciting game the Warriors lost to Havard 58-54. Wheaton closed the regular season with two easy and unimpressive victories over Elgin Academy 69-41 and Latin 74-40. Getting a bye for our first tourna- ment game Wheaton moved into the quarter finals without any action. The Warriors were then pitted against Walther Lutheran whom they had badly beaten early in the season. An- other easy victory, 63-40, resulted in sending them into the semi-finals against North Shore. Despite I4 points by Duddleston North Shore had a 20 point lead at the half and maintained the lead for a 59-41 final score. In the third place play off game with Christian the big battle was in the fourth quarter which started at a 36- 36 tie. Dan McCarrell's 'I8 points and hard fighting by his teammates was not quite enough as Christian won 52-50. Timothy Christian stands in awe as McCarrell makes another layup.

Winning two and losing seven of this year's matches the young wrestling team gained valuable experience. With only two varsity men from last year returning the team lacked the knowledge gained by doing. The Aurora West match provided the first victory for our grapplers. Pins by J. Oury and McCartney and wins by Spangler, M. Getty, Rockness, Nystrom, and Gieser provided a 27 to 21 win. Our wrestlers then lost to Riverside-Brookfield 26-22, Elgin 27-16, Palatine 24-11, and Oswego 35-18, despite pins by J. Oury and good hard wrestling by his teammates. In the Palatine Wrestling Tournament Jim and Bob Oury each won three matches to receive first place in their weight classes. McCartney and M. Getty each received third place by winning two and losing one. With six pins, two wins, and a tie our wrestlers beat Elmwood 38-11. Ken and Marv Getty, Jim and Bob Oury, Rockness, and Gieser pinned their men. The Warriors lost to Hinsdale 37-8, Downers Grove 30-18, and Oswego 37-6 to complete the dual matches. In the State Sectional Wrestling Tournament Jim Oury pinned his first two opponents. He won 2-0 in the semi-finals but lost 9-2 in the finals to place second in his weight which gave him the opportunity to go down-state. McCartney pinned his first two men but lost his next match on a referee's decision and placed fourth in his weight. Bob Oury won up to the semi- finals but there lost and place third.

Duddleston carries the baton a Starting out their season in the Oak Park Relays the track team took fourth place in their class. This year's relay teams made a better showing in the Relays than the Academy has ever done before. With Duddleston's new school record in the 220 and Kay's record in the low hurdles, the track men beat Oswego, 65W-40M, for their next match. They ran over Luther South beating them 77-27 with Duddleston, Smith, and Nanfelt each taking more than one first and five firsts by their teammates. Then they met Marmion Military Academy and suffered their first defeat losing by 71M-56V2 despite the record breaking relay team. ln our Annual Invitational Track Meet our team took second place with 56 points los- ing to Lake Forest Academy who had 92. An- other big meet was with University High, Luther North, and Leo Catholic High. This time we took first place with a 'I7 point lead over second place Leo Catholic. At the end of the season came the biggest meet and the high light of the whole season. This was the Private School League Meet. The Academy walked away with the first place trophy breaking the sixteen year monopoly of the trophy by University High. Our men were paced by triple winner Duddleston and record breaker Smith. ., M 'CMM l cross for another relay team win. 8 Smith, Meyer, Bob Oury, and Munsell tie for first in the 880 yard run against Luther South. Through the season several rec- ords were broken. The 100 yard dash record was broken by John Duddleston who ran it in 10.3. Also he broke the record for the 220, his time being 22.7. The 180 yards 'low hurdles record was broken by Dick Kay who ran it in 21.2. Wes Smith broke the PSL meet record in the one mile run by running it in 4:41.4. The two lap relay team consisting of Kay, Duddleston, Nanfelt, and Gbayee, broke the record by running it in 1:17.6. Another first place is on its way as Socash put the shot. ,gf-fs .. .Wi -..

Van Kampen, C Walles J Joransen McCarrell D Hanchett J R Carlson, Coach Nyquist. Back row, Manager Crane, With an overall record of nine wins and five de- feats for a .643 average and a league record of five win and five losses, the team did not have as much trouble with the cold weather losses this year as they have had in previous years. They had a good number of hitters this year with nine fellows batting over .200. Mc- Carrel was the leading hitter of the team in league play having a batting average of .385 and Gardziella was right behind him with a .346. Hanchett and Geurkink were also above .300. The pitching was good for there was depth in the string of pitchers. Hultgren had the best record with four wins to one defeat. Carlson had a record of four wins and six defeats. lt is in- teresting to note that the team did not do ex- ceptionally well in the league but they won all five games they played outside of the league against supposedly better teams. ln the first three conference games we beat only North Park and that was by one run. We then won two non-conference games and league Glen- wood. The Warriors then suffered two defeats at the hands of Luther Walther and Luther South. At this point we really got hot and won five in a row, beating Parker, Latin, Batavia, Oswego, and Christian. We ended the year losing the last game but all in all the baseball team showed a great improvement.

Marching into the Wheaton Bible Church for Baccalaureate was the last step before Graduation for us and was a fitting close for our high school education. Rev. Malcolm Cronk, Pastor of the Wheaton Bible Church, delivered the Baccalaureate sermon. BACCALAUREATE As we marched into Baccalaureate with Mrs. J. Foster Oury and Mrs. Alice Oury Mortenson playing the processional, we realized how soon our high school days would end for we were wearing caps and gowns for the first time. The service, held in the Wheaton Bible Church, was an inspiring close to our high school education. The special music was pro- vided by graduates Mary Novak on her flute and Bruce Gale who sang Psalm 9'l. Several fathers of graduates also participated in the service. The Baccalaureate sermon given by Rev. Malcolm Cronk, the pastor of the Bible Church, encour- aged the Seniors to plan their lives so that they could say with the Apostle Paul, l have finished my course. fi Jlgfb, Playing our processional and recesslonal Pilllm 91 WO! the Solo 5U '9 bY BV'-'Ce Q, ,he o,.ga,., was Mn J Fone, Qury Gale who graduated with us the fol lowmg day 'M' Sherrill Sanders Arlington Massachusetts Math Choir 3 4 Gamma Sigma Chi 3 4 Pre 4 Footprints 4 Girls W Club4 GAA 2 3 4 Student leaders 4 Transferred from Arlington High School in sophomore year WWW Iii Betty Short San Pedro Sula Honduras Social Studies Girls Glee Club 3 Gamma Sigma Chi 3 4 Footprints 4 Photography Editor 4 Pep Club irs u 3 4 Stu Leaders 3 4 Sharon Slater Chicago Illinois Social Studies- Gospel Team 4- Choir 3 4- String Ensemble Accompanist 4- Dorm Council 3 Sec. 3- Gamma Sigma Chi 3 4- G.A.A. 3 4 Student Leaders 4- Transferred from Englewood Christian Junior High School in sophomore year.

Except for the oversight of forgetting to have the Seniors change their tassels as practiced, the program moved along fine. The Seniors marched in on Pomp and Circumstance played on the organ by Wilson Augsburger. We were honored by the presence of the President of Wheaton College, Dr. V. Raymond Edman, who presided. In her valedictory address Beverly Vander Molen ex- pressed the thoughts of the whole Senior class as she revieved our stay at the Academy and what it now meant to us. Senior Charlette West- cott and the Senior Brass Trio of Bob Van Kampen, Bob Rasera, and Chuck Walles furnish- ed special music. Rev. Edwin S. Johnson in his address to the graduates urged them to stand stilI long enough to find out God's will and then go forward in His will. After Mr. Swanson awarded the honors, Mr. Melvin Johnson stood up and the moment we had all been waiting for was here. From the first one, Dan Volle, to Bob Rasera at the end of the line by handing out the diplomas, Mr. J graduated the largest Academy class - seventy-one. the exercises. GRADUATIGN E Dr. V.
