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 permanent 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 Bethany Peniel College of today is striving to achieve in the lives of its students a fourfold 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 futures 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.

Dr. C. A. McConnell, Dean Emeritus of Religion, was a confirmed atheist until he was thirty-five. 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 became 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 Church, but he was one of the seven men who met to establish Peniel College. At the age of fifty-seven Dr. McConnell accepted a professorship in Bethany-Peniel College. For twenty-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 Floy9 history, and Professors McClung, Snowbarger, and Shannon were in his classes of religion . More than twenty Nazarene chaplains in the recent war had Dr. McConnell for a professor.

. . . Sunday School teacher . .. faithful laxman

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 General Board and served as Chairman of the Department of Foreign Missions. Even though he has passed his eighty-fifth birthday, Dr. McConnell is still active in Christian service as Sunday School teacher of the largest class in the local church a:nd treasurer of the Western Oklahoma District.

The students and faculty affectionately call him "Uncle Charlie.:' Wherever students of his day an<1 today are found, the influence of our beloved friend is calling men to Christ. As long as BethanyPeniel College shall last, the name of Dr. C. A. McConnell will have a prominent place on its roll of honor.

Preparation of youth for life in Christ-that is the highest earthly task. In the training of growing persons for fellowship with God, for the achievement of Christlike character, and for a life of exalted and sacrificial service, our Christian teachers must be "taught of God" through a victorious faith in Jesus Christ. As teachers they finj:} 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 con~rol groups for the achievement of definite objectives. In dealing -with Christian education, our leaders organize the work; classify and emphasize the aims or goals that should be sought; outline the methods that should be used; plan and carry forward the curricular agencies; teach and direct the classes; cooperate with other leaders; and secure united and progressive 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 govern with strength and graciousness, and guide.with wisdom.

The divine service and the sacred privilege of Christian religious education find here their inspiring initiative and their s_ublime culumination.

BOARD OF TRUSTI:I:S 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 路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 reveals 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 member is B. F. Neeley, who was first elected in 1908.

Rev. W. A. Carter is completing his fourth year as chairman 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.

DR. 0. J. FINCI-I, President Behind every worthwhile endeavor there is always a man and a vision. On Bethany-Peniel College .campus Dr. 0. J. Finch is that man. With his leadership the College is making rapid strides in increased usefulness through a $300,000 Expansion Program, the development of a thorough and effective curriculum, and a more fervent spiritual emphasis.

Having been born 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 only 16,000 members, in a number of important positions. Following pastorates in the First Churches of Grand Rapids and Lansing, Michigan, and Wichita, Kansas, he was elected to the Superintendency of the Kansas District. He has served on the Boards of Trustees of Olivet, Bresee, and Bethany-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 made possible the kodachrome photography in this ARROW. Although 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, physical, spiritual, and cultural development Bethany Peniel College marches ahead!

FACULTY ·Students and faculty alike agree that PROFESSOR E. C. HALL Dean of Student Life, is the "man for the job."

In spite of the fact that he has handled this unsavory job for six years, he is one of the most popular profs on the campus. He can say, "No," and make you like it.

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.

"Extra-curricular 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 University of Texas and is now working on her M.A. in Speech at the University 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 interprets poetry with a characteristic uniqueness. She has clever ideas, is charming, and is a lovely person to know.

With his many achievements, his innumerable capabilities, DR. WILSON LADUE gives a never-ending contribution 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, photography, good classical music, and reading. One of •his chief delights is his family.

B.P.C. is honored to have on its faculty Dr. LaDue, who belongs to Phi Kappa Epsilon and is recognized in "Who's Who in Chicago and Illinois," and "Who's Who of American Scholars." He is editor of "A Bible Scholar in Bible Lands."

20

FACULTY PROFESSOR W. HARPER WELCH, one of the new-comers, says, "You can't accomplish anything by wishful thinking!" Aside from teaching the theology classes and debate, preaching on week-ends, sponsoring the Junior Class, giving direction to the Young Married People's Sunday School Class as its president, and playing ping pong in the "Drag," Prof. Welch has nothing to do but enjoy his family, and fly, or golf, when he gets the chance.

He has inherited a catchy sense of humor and an intense sincerity and feeling for religious implications from his revered grandfather-"Uncle Bud" Robinson. A scholar in his own right, Prof. Welch is a member of Phi Epsilon Theta.

MRS. ALICE CRILL 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. Crill edited the yearbook, and won the sportsmanship award all four years. She graduated with majors in music and education.

On B.P.C. campus she is one of the favorites in the classroom as well as in extra-curricular activities. With her husband she has been co-sponsor of the Class 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 philosophy, member of the Administrative Council, and sponsor of the Revielle 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 served 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 favorite 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 PROFESSOR C. HAROLD RIPPER. His wife claims that he is slow-never in a hurry; he has not been slow, however, in gaining prominent recognition on the campus in the tour years of his professorship. At present he holds membership 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 instructs the Christian Doctrine classes.

He has an aversion to onions, but he will eat them when he can not gracefully refuse. The Student Council has found in him a very 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 nationally 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, Kansas. Since coming to B.P.C. in October, 1944, she has directed various vocal groups and taught private voice lessons. She is also very active in the local church work, directing the Junior Church, teaching a Freshman 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 County, Texas, attended Bethany-Peniel Academy and later received her B. A. degree from B.P.C . and her degree in Library Science from the University of Oklahoma.

After eight years as librarian in the Amarillo Public Library and three in Ada, Mrs. Willis was selected by the administration to supervise the College library.

Besides her duties as librarian, she is treasurer of the Bethany Church of the Nazarene and the Oklahoma Library Association. She has made many friends here because of her ability to get along with everyone. You may recognize her by her "little girl smile."

One of the most popular members of the faculty is our typical "man about town," PROFESSOR CHESTER C. CRILL-Dean of Fine Arts and teacher of private voice lessons. Each year he conducts the mass Christmas Chorus and directs the A Cappella Choir. His students say that the funny 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 accomplished in an ever cheerful manner forms a pattern his students desire to follow.

Professor Crill's outstanding ability has recently been given unusual recognition by his being selected to membership in the National Association of Teachers of Singing, in which there are only 150 members in the United States.

MRS MYRTLE THOMPSON GREER began teaching in the Home Economics Department as instructor of Color and Design, in the spring of 1945. Her artistic ability, however, is not present -just in her classwork, but carries over into home-life. Every meal is brightened by a clever centerpiece of "various and sundry things." In class, as well as at home, she is frequently heard to say, "The way to get things done is ... " Mrs. Greer is active in religious work. On Sundays she faithfully 路fills her place in the local church choir. _She is also Chairman of the Distric.t Committee of the Western Oklahoma Y.W .F .M .S.

23

FACULTY A cherry, "Howdy, brethren," in a marked southern drawl will greet you 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 personality." You witl find him to be vitally interested in the religious organizations 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 H istory Department.

Although MISS MARIANA SEARS was born in Bethany, she went to Tulsa University for her college work.

D uri~g her undergraduate days, she taught piano lessons on the side, and was president of Sigma Alpha Iotawomen'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 accomplishments.

PROFESSOR D . R. DANSKIN, Chairman of the Commercial 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 hair on the top of his head- without much success.

Having inherited a "business-turn" from his storekeeper father, Prof. Danskin has continued his interest in figures through years 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

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 superintendent, 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 considerate 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 Navy.

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 by 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 during 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 served the Church of the Nazarene as missionary to Japan; Assistant General Secretary, Department 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 many delightful entertainments 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 year as music instructor at B.P.C. When she does not have the opportunity 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 Beresford, 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 ate divided between the English and Speech Departments.

While attending B.P.C. in his under-graduate 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. "Singspirations" are his specialty. His vibrant personality and consecrated 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 Louisiana 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 theology, 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

FACULTY PROFESSOR BOYD SHANNON, Chemistry instructor, 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 service received two years ago, Mr. Shannon resigned his position as General Superintendent of the Rock Island Refinery in Indianapolis, Indiana, and came to the campus as professor in the fall of 1945.

While 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 offered a scholarship to the Kansas City Conservatory of Music while in her senior year of high school, Miss Bolerjack preferred to make B.P.C. her Alma Mater, and she received her B.F.A. degree in 194 3. 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 rowing, 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 his appearances with the Oklahoma Symphony Orchestra and his solo work on the campus. Volumes of applause greet his every appearance. When any one needs some one to "tickle the ivories" Prof. Spalding is the man.

Not only is he an ardent follower of music, but Prof.

Spalding is an enthusiastic sports fan . His appreciation of quality in all fields is an inspiration to his many admirers.

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 expounding daily on the intricacies of college geometry, "trig," al~ebra, and calculus, he manages to find time for a five-hour course in zoology each semester.

Strangely enough, Prof's secondary 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 Department, 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 lessons and playing 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.

The Athletic Director of B.P .C. is PROFESSOR VERNON A. SNOWBARGER. His untiring efforts in promoting the sports program and in building the prestige of the Redskins have greatly emphasized the importance of physical development on the campus. He also teaches courses in Social Science and Mathematics.

An active member of the church, he is General President 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 when she says, "He's a wonderful man!"

FACULTY "I路 have come to tell you ... " Yes, meet DR. C. B. STRANG ... college pastor, Post Chaplain of the Putnam City American Legion, member of the General Board of the Church of the Nazarene, Trustee of B.P.C. He 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."

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 "never 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 interest in high scholarship, by choosing her as sponsor for the year.

MEDIC CAPTAIN LESTER DUNN rejoined the B.P .C. faculty in February 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 commanding officer of a collecting company, Captain Dunn participated in the Battle of the Bulge. The last six months of his overseas service was spent in the vicinity of the world-famed city of Nurenberg, where he studied voice four months with Alex Miltschinoff, leading German Opera singer.

B垄fore entering the armed service, Mr. Dunn was principal of Bethany 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.

30

FACULTY For the latest word on etiquette see MISS EURELA BROWN-the campus "Emily Post." Everyone enjoys being invited to the Home Ec "coffee room," because something 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 classroom theories.

Miss Brown has many interests. Before coming to Bethany she had time for participation in horseback riding, golfing, swimming, and tennis. While in Springfield, Missouri, she was director of the Junior Art Museum. Her hobbies "dre collecting antique furniture (most of it is in the attics of various friends) and glassware.

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 Boy Scouts and his supervision of the Intermediate Department of the Sunday School. He is an accomplished pianist and an unusually well-informed and widely-read person .

With him in Texas 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 any other faculty member, which makes us feel that, whether here or away, he belongs to us.

Canada's "good-will ambassador" to B.P.C . campus is MISS ELIZABETH NELSON, sponsor and director of the Treble Choir, teacher of private voice and church music classes. Her education inch.1des 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 combination of rich contralto and soprano, make her a favorite among the students.

31

CAMPUS FRIENDS There are always a few indispensable persons on every college campus. At B.P.C. Mrs. Katie Drewry (top), Mrs. Mary Sears (center), Mr. and Mrs. Paul Simpson (lower left), and Mrs. Nettie Bracken (lower right) claim that distinction. It is

their responsibility to make an enjoyable "home-life" for the dorm students and to satisfy the ravenous appetites of 250 stpdents 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 successfully filling the place of "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 schoolteacher, 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 Society 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 teaching 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."

32

OFFICE ASSISTANTS Some "poor, misinformed people" think that the officials keep the school ticking. No-the official's assistants "run the college." Let us introduce them to you. Your college career starts in the Registrar's office where you will meet MRS. LEONA McCONNELL, returned missionary, who has served faithfully for three years. She, with her helpers, records grades, handles registration files, works out class schedules, and prepares transcripts.

In the business office the radiant smiles of MISS FLORENCE LUNDY and MRS. ROXIE ANN WESSELS make you feel at ease. These ladies are always ready to help you with your financial problems, and they are happy to "take" your money.

Miss Lundy's tenure of service has been nineteen years.

A very important personage is MISS BERNICE DAWSON, the secretary to our esteemed President. Her main duties are the handling of Dr. Finch's correspondence and keeping his appointments straight.

Throughout the entire Administrative Building you will find countless secretaries and assistants who keep the professors straight. They are doing a magnificent job.

THE STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT for the school year 1945-46 has been Mr. Don Beaver. After coming to B.P.C. in the spring of 194 3, he early won recognition by being elected Secretary of the Sophomore Class the following fall. During that year the President of his class resigned and Don was elected to succeed him . In his Junior year he served as Vice-President of the Student Council and in his Seni-or year he has taken over the gavel.

Don is a champion of democratic student government and feels that the Student Council should represent the entire student body in its program. He has sought to encourage the closest cooperation between the students and the faculty. To further demonstrate the breadth of his vision, Don has endeavored to make the student body program contribute to the fullest extent in developing a well-rounded, four-fold life.

Mr. Don Beaver, the students of Bethany-Peniel College salute you!

34

Carl lngersol, STUDENT DIRECTOR OF RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES, has led the student body to a greater participation than ever before in the campus religious organizations .

The high type of leadership given by Carl this year is a culmination of a number of years of Christian service. Converted at the age of seven, he was called to preach in October of 1942 and enrolled in B.P.C. the following year. In his home church at Stillwater, 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 W ynnewood, 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, Secretary-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 Hamilton, Joy Beaver, Carl Ingersol, Helen Faye Moore (Senior), Delene Stockton (Junior), Ted Hollingsworth (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 both faculty members and students. Of course, there was the traditional solo by Prof. Crill-"The Green-eyed Dragon," and the suit-case race. In October Clean-up Day was observed 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 College 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 particularly new feature -Prof. Wayne Thorne was Santa Claus. Before passing out the many exchange gifts, Santa brought gales of laughter from thefrolicking students by 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

the Santa Claus suit home to its owner in Oklahoma City, but it didn't get there. Someone stole the suit! However, a small boy found it discarded in a near-by alley, 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 February 22 Rev. Claude A. Beesley gave an interesting "travelogue 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 receducation 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 pay 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, Marvin Stockett, Robert Corley, and Carl Newsome.

The work of the Student Council has been very successful, and its high type of leadership is appreciated by everyone.

BOOK TWO

Dim library corners and tallow-drops from the midnight light ... the noise of many typewriters, rattle of old bones, the rise and fall of dramatic tones ... lines of figures that dwindle to pluses, zeroes, minuses . , .

There are the surface ramifications of a student's college career. But beneath the maze of term papers, vocabulary cards, and semester exams is a purpose. The scientist, the minister, the missionary-physician, the wise, the good, and the great often are concealed in the plebeian and may only be discovered by a proper education.

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

FRESI-IMAN CLASS The largest Freshmen class ever to glorify the BethanyPeniel College campus, was initiated into college life in the fall of 1945. They came as the first peacetime class in Four Years. Much of the increased enrollment is due to the large number of returned servicemen 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 unharmed but infinitely wiser; second, that they are the largest class in the history of the school; and third, that they are the golden anniversary class.

These frosh haven't been idle during their first year on our campus. They had a big party at Lincoln Park early in the fall, and in the spring, on March 28th, they baqqueted at the Biltmore Hotel in Oklahoma City. 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 activities moving at a fast pace, setting a good example himself by being active in basketball and debate. The freshmen have a large majority of the servicemen, vocal and instrumental groups, and members on the ECHO and ARROW staffs, and members on both the all-school baseball and basketball teams. Curtis Horn, businessman extraordinary, 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 reality . . . 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 birthday present to our college on its Golden Anniversary in 1949.

SOP~OMORE CLASS

Neil Hightowei, President Lewis Thompson, Vice-President Tommie Johnson, Secretary-Treasmer

The Freshmen of 1944 arrived at B.P.C. one hundred and sixty strong, along with Dr. Finch, the new president. They prompt!y 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 Bethany-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 immediately reelected the Crill;s as their sponsors. The sophomores 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 Hightower 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 Crills at a big party in the Youth Center.

Second semester brought some new class members and many plans for spring. Mary 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 championships.

The Sophomore Banquet on March 28th was a gala affair with laughs for everyone. 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 ir 1948.

We must admit those Sophomores are a brainy class to budget their finances for the years to come; so their expenses 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!

JUNIOR CLASS Jim Hamilton, President Virginia Couchman, Secretary

Our Junior Class, as the Freshmen of 194 3, came breezing into Bethany-Peniel College with the traditional bigger-than-ever 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 interpretation of poetry, oratory, radio speaking, and afterdinner speaking, and Delene Stockton in debate.

This year has been the most exciting of all for this, our Junior Class. In the fall they had a party at "Roger Haven," which is bound to make all history books. Immediately the class started working on their Junior Play. It took hours of grueling work, but when In His Steps was persented for the public, it sold out completely, and two performances were given to packed houses.

The spiritual 路 and high moral tone of the play made it very popular op. 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 Biltmore in Oklahoma City and followed a nautical theme. George Moore with his dry pointless jokes kept everything sailing, and Prof. Welsh, 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.

He, with Tommie Johnson, were rated the No. 1 mixed team in the midwest. We mustn't forget the Junior Trip .. . three days of leisure and furr, ' followed by a sunburned, tired, but happy class returning home with many memories of what had been . . . and looking forward to their last year of this great adventure of college life.

SENIOR CLASS In the fall of 1942, one hundred nineteen enthusiastic freshmen enrolled at B.P.C. along with three hundred thirty-two upperclassmen. 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-Or. A. K. Bracken, Dr. S. T. Ludwig, and Dr. 0 . 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 Service 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 "fgur year loaf" the Senior elected two exservicemen, 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'~ romped away with the softball 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.

M~MORIAM

PFC. REGINALD CARTER, a member of the Class of '46, died of wounds on December 17, 1944, while a prisoner of war of the German government. Carter paid the supreme sacrifice in an attack in Hurtigen 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 very much by everyone.

He made a good account of himself."

Pfc. Carter, who was twenty-two years old, was a member of the infantry. During the three months he was overseas, he was stationed in England, Scotland, France, Belgium, and Germany.

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 Bethany-Peniel College, and the Huntsville .路 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, by his unusual bravery and action beyond the call of duty, distinguished himself 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.

SPECIALS The Specials Class was organized for the first time this year.

Feeling that they should have equal recognition with the other classes, approximately 115 specials met and selected Bruce Wade, popular evangelistic singer from Texas, as their president.

Rosey Hollingsworth, red-headed Fine Arts Special who hails from Enid, Oklahoma, took over the responsibilities of secretary-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, shuffie boards, checkers, carom, and several group games, the hungry 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 are not taking enough hours to be classified as a full-time students. They contribute a vital influence to the college life.

Included in this section are the pictures of part of the scond semester students. A large percentage of this group are World War II Veterans who have come to Bethany-Peniel College under the G. I. Bill of Rights. Already they are taking a very active part in all phases of the campus activities.

SEME STER

REGISTRATION "Old Sol" did his best to encourage heat-conscious students to sign up on registration day by hiding his face behind a layer of cooling clouds. One hundred fifty-nine brave-hearts took courage and signed their names on the d0tted 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 registered. The final verdict of everyone was that Summer School was not so bad after all.

WIMAN ANNIVERSARY More than 300 faculty members, students, and friends met in Bud Robinson Hall to pay honor to Prof. and Mrs. C. H. Wiman on their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. Appropriate vows were exchanged as Dr. C . B. Strang read the ceremony, "Uncle Charlie" McConnell gave the bride away, and Mr. and Mrs. Emery McReynolds, their daughter and son-in-law, acted as- groomsman and brides-maid. Adding importance to the occasion, Rev. Wiman's family was reunited for the third time in twenty years.

GET ACQUAINTED PARTY The second occasion on the Summer Social Calendar was the Get-Acquainted Party, Friday evening, May 25.

Prof. Snowbarger, Prof. Thorne, "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) .

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. Thorne revealed secrets of the Scriptures to his Old Testament students.

SUMMER SPORTS The summer sports program was, for the most part, very informal, but that did not keep the fellows from getting a great deal of enjoyment and relaxation from it. 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 revived, and minds were cleared for the next 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 necessary to defeat the number three man before one was eligible to play number two, etc.

Louis McMahon, Maurice Hall, and Eugene Verbeck 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."

IMPROVEMENTS-A LA STUDENTS Each afternoon about one o'clock any one passing the open door of the campus workshop would have seen Paul Simpson priming eight or ten fellows for that day's improvement program . 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 instrumental 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 wallfinish and paint. Space does not permit us to tell of plastering, sealing floors, calking, removing trees, cleaning the campus, building partitions, preparing organ rooms . . .

IMPROVEMENTS-A LA COMMERCIAL One day Rev. McGraw called Paul Simpson aside and advised him of the necessity 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 buildings had to be completely recovered. The Consolidated Roofing Company was called to the rescue, (upper left) and the student work crew was happy again .

In conformity with the policy of the Business Office to keep everything in proper repair, a "steeple-jack" was obtained from Oklahoma City 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 meteorology students supposedly "studying the clouds." He, however, was speedily disillusioned when he followed their gaze to the top of the flag-polethere 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 entertainment on their way to chapel, for no one will get stuck any more.

The old, bumpy, country roads adjoining the College have become smooth, beautiful, city streets (lower center) . They are truly a credit to the school and the city.

Of major importance to l\1rs. 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.

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 difficulty in finding the proper mill work and finishing stones caused delay in actual building till October 1. However, all preliminary work, such as digging ditches, 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. There are three stories with forty-four rooms, parlor, and supervisor's apartment.

Summer Tent Meeting .. . Revs. Ellis and Ruth Teasdale, evangelists.

RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Those who participated this year were : Talmadge Stands, Elizabeth Hale, Geraldine Courtney, Herbert Scott, J. Russell Smith, Vivian Beckel, and Glenn McArthur.

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 fasting services.

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.

Miss Alice Lewis and her assistants did a grand job of supervising the Vacation 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 assisted her were enriched by their association with her.

College students help form the parade line.

SUMMER COMMENCEMENT Eleven students received their diplomas at the Third Annual Summer Commencement Program August 14. Rev. W. L. 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 sidelight that in every summer commencement so far the pastor at Norman has given the address.

Rev. French pointed out to the graduates that "The secret of every great victory is getting good and ready. 'J?e 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 ofthis 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.

BOOK THREE

When shouts are heard again, and the campus comes to life with school-spirit each September, one knows that it's baseball season. There may be a tennis or a basketball tournament, for the balls are 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 tune of the gymnasium-floor whistle, brightened by Jamboree colors, enlivened by the excitement of track day. They are thinking and willing with energy 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 with firmness.

P~YSICAL

DEVELOPMEN T 108

BOYS' ATI-ILETICS Although Bethany-Peniel College does not participate 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 intellectual pursuits. Therefore, a definite program of physical education classes has been worked out along with an extensive intra-mural program .

Competition in softball, basketball, and track is arranged between the . class organizations. Tennis, ping-pong, and horseshoes give ample opportunity 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 membership in the Redskins-better known as the Warriors 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 performance and a keener spirit of competition.

Another factor contributing to the success of the athletic organization this year has been the remodeling of the gymnasium. During the summer 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.

The 1945 softball season had more than its share of thrills and spills. A surprisingly strong aggregate from the Freshman Class scared ev~ryone, but, although more than half the All-stars were selected from this group1 the Frosh landed in the cellar. The Juniqrs, last year's pennant grabbers, made a real bid, but the Seniors, behind the stellar pitching 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 homerun with the bases loaded. The Seniors won 7-6.

Two clays laler the Juniors again seemed to have things their own way ?gainst the Seniors, keeping a 2-0 lead throughout the entire gaine. In the last half .of the last inning Willie Marsh connected for a long home-run into right field with two men on bases.

In mid-season the Juniors came back with wins of 5-4 and 13-12

over the Sophomores and Freshmen respectively. Smith and Hudson drove in the winning runs in these con~ests .

The Senior's pennant hopes were jeopardized when the rejuvenated Freshmen team came up with a surprise win of 3-2 on October 16. Further consternation gripped the upper-classmen when a few days later the Sophomores again turned the trick, and with the aid of the spectacular fielding of M. Parrish eked out a 5-4 victory. 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 diamond on October 23 to decide the championship. Both teams played good ball, and very 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 sponsors-made the noise which is always necessary for a good ball game.

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, ODIS BROWN, first base, was one of the classiest fielders on . the diamond. He played the full season without commiting an error and ended with a .3 33 batting average. He was always full of zip.

STANLEY LEDBETTER, a freshman , was given the second base berth althoueh he played the infield around besides taking one pitching assignment. No matter where he played he was the mainstay of his team. During the season he committed 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 .4 38.

He was very quick on a pickup, and his peg to first was excellent. He had a particular knack of playing 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 baserunner in the tournament. His batting average was a healthy .440.

JIMMY HAMILTON, utility, played catcher, short-stop, and rover for the juniors. Outstanding

in keeping his eye .on the ball, he committed but one error and numerous times threw runners out who were attempting to steal bases.

The "best throwing arm in the league" is possessed by EARL RIGGS, left field, who played third base for the freshmen . 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 championship with a sizzling .500. He was adept at throwing a runner out and was alawys found backing up a play.

One of the best fielders this season was EUGENE PLEMONS, who placed as rover. He made many brilliant stops, and what he lacked in size he made up in hustle. His average was .333.

The freshmen found in ERNEST CONRAD,

JAMBOREE GAME 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 King's Laundry team.

This year Coach Vernon Snowbarger put one of the best teams in the school's history on the floor. Captain 0.

Basketball enthusiasts who saw the class teams play in clean, sportsmanlike contests are well pleased with the 1946 season. 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 watch . Thirsty 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 excitement the Sophomores trounced the Freshmen 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 determined teams met for the play-off. In spite of the masterful playing of the senior ace, Lewis Andrews, who gathered 16 points, the Juniors managed to come out on the long end of the score, 27 to 23. In the main match t~e Frosh and Sophs played neck to neck throughout 路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 Sophomores pulled out in front. Having secured sufficient lead, the five in gold and black stalled the game. When ~he final whistle blew the Sophs found themselves the victors by a margin of 33 to 26, and the possessors of the coverted basketball pennant.

Louis McMahon Champ

Louis "Twig"- McMahon breezed through the single tennis tournament and took the championship in veteran style, Having 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 plenty of ability and a style all of his own, Serving 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 accurate cuts, together with an occasional drive, made competition hot for the best His distinctive ability to play the net was partially offset by Baldwins lobs, After a hotly contested match McMahon came off with the victory to the tune of 6-3; 6-2; 7-5; 6-L Following the new "perpetual" tournament system the winner was not declared champion until November L 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.

GIRLS' ATI-ILETICS 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 percentage 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 Department this year. An athlete in her own right, she has lettered in three sports in her two years at B.P.C. The fact that she can handle the ball as easily as she can maintain a 3.00 average in her studies has contributed immeasurably to her outstanding success.

SOFTBALL REDSKINS In softball the sophomore girls proved to be the best of the three teams which competed in the tournament. The frosh and junior-seniors had good material, and enough of it, but what they lacked-and what the sophs had-was cooperation.

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 softball players of the campus. As second baseman for the upperclassmen, Jo scarcely let a ball pass, and it seems that catching flies was a habit with her.

BO N NIE COPPOCK is off to a nice sta.rt 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 catching 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 opponents regard her as a one-man team . Her deadeye gauge and poise are a combination that enable her to play her position top notch.

A little on the noisy side, VELMA . REED plays an interesting game with an open eye for everything. With her quick, sprightly 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 W ILLIAMSON, 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 efficiency at first base and for her good batting average. She plays her position with constant energy. Her cheerful attitude under all circumstances makes her one of the most popular players on the diamond.

An invaluable member of any team, because of her "playing attitude," is RUBY 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 upperclassmen.

TERA JANE MASTERS is one of the best allround players of the league. She is equally good as pitcher, fielder, and batter.

Charlotte McGill, Champ

TENNIS

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 defeated 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 opponents strong serves and excellent returns and won in the last few games. In the final set Charlotte was at her best and exhibited a good backhand and fast footwork. Proving to be too much for Gregg, McGill took every game of the last set.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL to 27. The sophomores then defeated the frosh and came out in the lead, only to be tied again when the juniorseniors 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 f()rward for the sophomores, became a junior and joined the upper-class.mens team. This gave the junior-seniors a definite advantage, and it was hoped by them, and feared by the sophomores 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. The score of this game was destined to be decisive. After an intensely exciting contest the sophomores 路emerged the victors by a score of 27 to 22. Nevertheless, the junior-seniors did not give up.

They were to have one more game with the sophs. If the upperclassmen 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 an路d struggled through the needed 路victory. 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 tliis, however, they were disappointed, for the papooses went down to a 40 to 25 defeat and the sophs took the tournament.

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. Shakespeare 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 Bethany-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. This intensive training culminated in a decisive 30 to 16 victory over an independent Bethany team in the Jamboree game.

The relative strength of the various 路 class teams began to show up early in the season and it soon became evident that the nine-week intra-mural tournament would be extremely interesting. Competition promised to be keen, especially between the Sophomore and Junior-Senior Teams. The prospects for the sophomores seemed to be slightly better than for the others, for they won all the pre-season games.

The 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. Their luck did not last long, however, for they met the sophomores the next week and lost 22

The fall term always starts 路out with hopeful students waiting in long lines (often the wrong ones) in the halls.

Pauline Dockery and Arleen Kent (top left ) head the first line where Marceline Thompson (back to camera) gives instructions on how to register . . . Albert Green is always eager to be in the picture.

At the other end of the line (top right ), Mabel Ball and Marjorie Babcock turned around just in time.

First stop in registering is advising with your major professor . .. Arleen Kent and Prof. Shannon (upper center) talk over the inevitable conflicts and problems of required courses and desirable electives.

James Hudson, Garrett Wilson, and Alvin Roberts have gone as far as the library ( lower center, left) where comfortable chairs and adequate tables ease the un路 pleasantness of filling out the numerous cards which Lee Donna Kerr and Myrna Close present to them.

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 Arleen's money and pronounces her Registrant No. 1 of 1945.

In the main hall an excited group are collected around the student council booth (bottom ), supervised by Don Beaver and Jim Hamilton, where they receive their student activity cards and new Student Handbook. Marion Edwards and Peggy Doing are not very camera-shy.

132

The first social activity of the year was the Faculty Reception for the Freshman Class in the Drag. As the timid Frosh entered the door, they were confronted by the august faculty members (top) Miss Lewis, Prof. Hall, Mrs. Finch, and Dr. Finch are seen welcoming Audie Lynn, Juanita Nye, Peggy Clay, Peggy Bohannon, and others.

Having lived through the ordeal of their first receiving line, Dale Marie Mizell, Peggy Bohannon, and Peggy Clay (center) are seen getting their soft drinks and cookies from an adequate supply"on the faculty."

Feeling more at ease and somewhat happy over their new experience of " the first day at Bethany-Peniel College," the Frosh " un-lax" (bottom ) and get acquainted.

Norman Howerton seems to have attracted the attention of the three young ladies in the foreground, while Albert Green, Virgil Taylor, Herman Brewer, and Fred Cason look on . Herbert Scott prefers to turn his back. In the background on the left 路 Beulah Perdue and Maxine Engleman observe with amnst'ment the Howerton tactics.

Freshman Recognition, September 27, started the night before. In Bud Robinson Hall the girls enjoyed a slumber party in which entertainment was furnished by the upper classmen-at the expense of the Frosh ___ Helen Jones, Alma Jean Lunn, Eva Mae Harper, Mary Jo Horn, and Virginia Moore pose (top) around the "gypsy campfire."

Early next morning the unlucky Freshmen were introduced to the value of physical exercise in the wee morning hours. Curtis Horn, Prof.

McClung ( Frosh sponsor), and Marion Edwards warm up on a "body-twist" (upper left center), while Neil Hightower has Norman Howerton, vociferous and unruly Frosh, demonstrate (upper right center), while Odis Brown looks on.

To help work up an appetite, an early morning "hike" proved appropriate.

Earlene Harris, Virginia Hoag, Russel McCollom, Audie Lynn, and Peggy Clay still look happy (lower center) as they pass Bresee Hall.

Preceding breakfast is the proper time to clean your room, so Ed Hadduck, Frosh prexy, makes his bed (bottom left) while Leona Steel, Dorothy Rhodes, and Betty Nash, who have already arrived at the dining hall (bottom right), get their " warpaint" applied.

134

In true "papoose style" the 路Frosh sit on the floor and eat breakfast (top) as "papa" Leonard Akin keeps a fatherly eye on his charges. After their morning work-out the "greenies" agreed that anything, 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路 gram, featuring "memories of the past" was arranged and presented by the sophs. Earleen Johnson and Richard Thompson (center) played the leading parts as "Ma" and "Pa." One of the most exciting numbers路 was the old-fashioned 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路 by's "bare-foot beau."

Good feelings were resumed around a " banquet table" where ice cream and cookies were served as long as they lasted .

All of the first week was not just fun for the incoming class. On Thursday evening they hesitatingly wound their way to one of the assigned classrooms to take the Psy路 chological Tests. Although frightened by the imposing name of this particular activity, the group pictured (top) were disillusioned by Miss Brown, their erstwhile professor, and all are busily re vealing the quality of theii I.Q .

To fini sh the week in good style, the Student Council sponsored the Annual AllSchool Party. The excitement engendered by welcomes in French, German, and Spanish by Dr. LaDue, Prof.

Spalding, and Prof. Wiman; intensified by vocal numbers

by Prof. Smith, . Prof. Crill, and the 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 "suit-case race" (center) which was won by Noble Hathaway and Charlotte Hargraves, who defeated George Moore and Rubena Messer; was cooled off by the generous helpings of ice cream, ice cold pop, and pie served by Albert Gamble and Almeta Mizell (bottom ) while Don Beaver bossed the job.

Douglas Meador and Terry Lambert (top lett ) believe that "all work and no play make Doug and Terry dull boys."路 The girls have their lazy moments too! Eileen Dawson, Dale Mizell, Norma Lee Hess, and Hilda Friesen (top right) take it easy on Cleanup Day as Don Beaver toils away in the background.

At noon weary bones and muscles were rested and hunger-pains were relieved by a fine out-door meal. Lee Donna Kerr, Juanita Gregg, Phyllis Hendricbon, Alma Jean Lunn, Mary Ellen Herrin, Vangie Hale, Marcella George, Rosy Wllliams, Mary Lou Langford and Kittie Jane Stockton smile their approval (center) .

"Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home!"

The girls of Bud Robinson Hall agree that their "college home" is the very best.

Taking time out from their many activities, Neta Brummett and Eunice Cloud (top left ) pose for the ARROW photographer.

"Screened" by numerous "personal" pictures, Algree Thompson's profile (top right) lends interest to the picture.

"Snack-time" finds Juanita Gregg, Phyllis Hendrickson, Ruby Wilson, and Esther Marie Land troop (center ) enjoying some Sunshine Krispy Crackers, Heinz Green Pea and Tomato Soup. This is a tasty way of getting their daily vitamins.

Sandy Faulkner (bottom left) looks up from the picture on her bureau as the ARRO\V "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 HanIon (bottom right ), takes advantage of her opportunities. No wonder she is a topnotch student.

138

On November 8 the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors laid aside their intellectual responsibilities to further their 路 social development . Finding one truck inadequate to supply transportation for the entire group, a large number of the 路freshmen forlornly waited around (top ), hoping they 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 \Vill 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" enjoying a scrumptuous meal prepared by Harriet Adams, Helen Jones, and Mrs. Rogers (center ). Jim Hamilton again proved his versatility by demonstrating his ability to overload plates with the delicious chili, potato salad, and "mansize" steaks. Wayne Siege looks mighty pleased with the prospects (bottom) as Tillie Ware, Wilma Blake, Joyce Pigg, Virginia Couchman, and Ellen Rogers discuss the eating problem . in the background.

139

The Annual Thanksgiving Banquet was held in Bud Robinson Hall November 27, with Don Beaver as Toastmaster. Prof. W. Harper Welch proved to be an ideal after-dinner speaker, specializing on his "J. Walter Hall, Jr., joke!" Some two hundred seventy-five guests enjoyed the delicious turkey and trimmings as ':per usual."

Following the banquet, a giant Pep Rally was staged around the bon-fire in preparation for the Jamboree the next evening. Charlotte Hargraves, "Pill" Roeber, Nan Fugita, and Jo Horn (center) lead the enthusiastic crowd in some school yells. Several of the outstanding players (Maurice Hall, Olen Riggs, Glen Little, and Deward Finch) are seen in the background .

In the Jamboree game the Bethany Redskins routed the King's Laundry cagers 45 to 32. 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 19 points; Finch ran a close second with 14 points.

The College Girls' team proved at the annual Jamboree that the boys are not the only ones who can play basketball. Playing a team of Bethany town girls, the College won the opening game.

Jo Hom, Ruby Wilson, and Velma Reed have a tense moment ( top), the town girls gasp, and Hampton Anderson prepares to call the play.

Much excitement was created by an exhibition wrestling match (center ) between "Pee Wee" (Bob Troutman) and "The Giant" (Maurice Mahannan ) m which Referee Boyd Kifer was declared the winner.

Norman Howerton,_ John Hathaway, Lively Crawford路, and Glenn Little stand by as seconds.

Between the girls' and boys' games a new feature for the Jamboree was initiated. Olen Riggs (game captain) crowned Luna Ruth as Jamboree Thompson Queen (bottom) . The Queen was escorted to her throne

by Suzanne Welch, flower girl, and Howard Vernon Snowbarger, crown bearer.

Her attendants, who were nominees for queen, were Wana Walker and Stevie Hope. Glen McArthur and Deward Finch escorted the attendants.

She is a member of the Honor Society.

Someday she hopes to receive an A.B . in Speech.

CLESTER PULTS had been pastoring at Hennessey, Oklahoma for three months. In December the church discovered the need for a pastor's wife. Ora Lee Woods oblingingly answered the call, and everyone seems well pleased.

B.P.C.'ers will never forget Clester'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

One of the intellectual leaders on the campus is RACHEL BELCHER from Forest, New Mexico. A trip to Chicago with the 4H Club, which she won as an award for her achievements in the organization, was perhaps the most outstanding event of her freshman year.

Her talent in writing was displayed in her junior year when she was editor of the Reveille Echo. 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 member of the society. A major in psychology and a warm personality will aid Rachel in realizing her ambition-to do personal counseling.

156

The popular Vice-President of the Senior Class is CHARLES EDWARD TAYLOR, ex-serviceman with thirty missions over Germany to his credit. When asked how many semesters he had been in the Honor Society he said, "Ncit 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 has 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 something.

158

An imposing list of secretaryships is worthily accredited to JOY BEAVER. Her election as " jot-em-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 Cappella 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 the "Miss" in front of her name with "Mrs."

160

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 Vice-President 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. Roxie Ann, however, will assure you that "Dean can't be beat anywhere."

162

When something needs to be done, one is tempted to say, "Let ALMET A MIZELL do it!" There is no question whether or not it will be done right-and on time. She is known as the "Home Ec girl." As could be expected, her hobbies are centered around costume design, home decoration, and art.

In her senior year she has contributed a valuable service to her school mates as treasurer of her class and Associate Editor of the ARROW. Her love for ping pong and her interest in football has not kept her from membership in the Honor Society for the past two years.

164

"Where is that fellow going m such a hurry?" "Oh-that's PERRY TUDOR-he's always going on the 'double quick'."

Perry has been a member of the Phi Delta Lambda Honor Society for three years. He is the only member of Who's Who possessing two All-School letters-track and softball .

For four years Perry has been a member of the Oklahoma Symphony Orchestra in which he plays the French horn. His major is philosophy. He was elected editor of the Reveille Echo in the spring of 1945.

BOOK FOUR 168

Acquisition of culture and development of intellect are as sounding brass and tinking cymbal without religion in the heart. 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 have 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 benevolence 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

CHURC~

Bethany-Peniel College is a Christian institution. The ideals and standards of holiness are of prime importance. Therefore, the College Church is cherished as the center of religious emphasis on the campus. Each service is planned with great ~are so as to give the maximum of spiritual life md 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 Jf stuc1ents, faculty, and members of the comnunity, lends dignity and inspiration to the sertice with the singing of hymns and anthems as t is led by Prof. Crill, the Bethany ·"minister >f music."

Dr. C. B. Strang guides the destiny of the :hurch with ease and poise. His intensely pracical messages are effective guideposts for "meeting ife's situations." His vital concern for each one .s an individual personality and his desire to de·elop a sound religious experience in the heart of 'ach student makes us feel that he is our own •ersonal friend.

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Rev. A. LeRoy Taylor, Sunday School Superintendent.

One phase of the 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 training in religious education.

The Young People's Department is under the capable direction of Mrs. Vernal Dodds. It is significant that duringthe Six Weeks Sunday School Emphasis Campaign this department was the only one in the entire school which went over its quota. The cooperation that she has received this year demonstrates that the college students are fully conscious of the genuine interest that Mrs. Dodds has for their spiritual welfare.

The Activities of the College Department have been characterized 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 College, the Church, and the town- Rev. A. LeRoy Taylor, member of the Board of Trustees, Sunday School Superintendent, and Superintendent 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.

AUXILIARIES The College Church offers many opportunities for acquiring experience in the different departments of church administration. 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 different age groups better. Of particular interests to the College students are the Navigator and the Yokemate Societies. Rev. Raymond McClung has served very effectively as the chairman of the Navigators, assisted by Willis Flick, vice-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 by 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 leading 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, vicechairman; Evangeline Hale, secretary; Danford 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 Program," pictures of South America, and "The Alphabet in Questions and Answers."

The General N.Y.P.S. Executive Committee, which correlates the activities of the different groups, has been Prof. Vernon Snowbarger, President; Harper L. Cole, VicePresident; Eugene R. Verbeck, SecretaryTreasurer; and the committee chairmen.

Another important activity which furnishes excellent training possibilities is the Sunday morning "youth work." During the Morning Worship service in the main auditorium, the Junior Church and the Youth Church meet for their own individual services. 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

CI-IAPEL SPEAKERS During the school year the students of BethanyPeniel 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. Early in the fall Dr. D. Shelby Corlett, editor of the "Herald of Holiness," conducted revival services in the College 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 character that enables us to face life with manhoodto 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 HastingsSmith, 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 Chaplain 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. D . Shelby Corlett, Fall Revivalist.

Rev. Mack Anderson, Spring Revivalist.

Dr. Roy Cantrell, Superintendent of the Minnesota District, was Aycock Lecturer in the fall.

His messages were characterized by a dynamic love for the cause of Christ and a practical application from his many experiences.

One of the most interesting and popular chapel speakers of the year was Chaplain Wilson Lanpher, who came to us four different times. During the winter three representatives of our Nazarene works in foreign countries roused our missionary zeal. Re'{S. Lyle Prescott and LebronVelasquez told of our new works in Cuba and Puerto Rico, respectively. Following the General Board meeting in January, Dr. George Frame, Superintendent of the British Isles, spent several days on the campus. His keen intellect, his fervent spirit, and his zeal for the cause of Christ will not soon be forgotten.

174

Dr. Roy Cantrell _ . . Aycock Lecturers ... Rev. Lauriston DuBois

In February the College Board of Trustees met on the campus and in their annual chapel service presented Dr. G. B. Williamson, pastor of the Kansas City First Church and former President 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 interesting and profitable lectures on the subject "The Psychology of

Rev. Charles Smith

Holiness." The attendance was so large that it was necessary to have the lectures _in the Fine Arts Auditorium.

Climaxing a great year of spiritual blessings, the spring revival 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.

Thestudents of Bethany-Peniel College appreciate the effort of their leaders to give them the best in religious leadership.

PRAYER AND FASTING LEAGUE The PRAYER AND FASTING LEAGUE is the largest student religious organization on the campus. Each Friday noon between 150 and 200 young people meet in the College Church to -spend an hour in communion 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 prayer 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.

GOSPEL TEAM 'f.he GOSPEL TEAM ha_s a two-fold purpose: ( 1 ) to foster among the students a greater interest in personal evangelism; and ( 2) to send out groups or individuals for Christian service during the school year.

During the first semester the main activities included revival services in Marlow, Oklahoma, and Fort Worth, Texas, conducted by the McMahon Quartet Group; a District Young People's Convention by the Married Men's Quartet; and several tours with Dr. Finch by the Sophomore Quartet. Second semester gave major emphasis to week-end meetings and N .Y.P.S . services in near-by churches.

Other activities of the year were centered in personal visitation 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.

MISSIONARY BAND The MISSIONARY BAND meets once a month to create and develop interest in missionary endeavor. Although the group of approximately 75 students who attend are not all called to the foreign fields, included in the membership are young people who at present are preparing for service in Africa, India, Australia, 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 A. D. Grim, Dr. C . A. McConnell, Prof. C. H. Wiman, and Chaplain E. E. Hale. In one service of particular interest one of B.P.C.'s war veterans, Lively 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.

One of the most popular and interesting speakers of the year was CHAPLAIN WILSON LANPHER, who appeared in chapel four different times.

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.

THE LIBRARY On the second floor of Bresee Hall one finds the college library. Here are reading materials for all purposes: for classwork, for spiritual aid, and for pleasure.

When approaching the entry way to "ye reading room" a newcomer is impressed by numerous signs warning one not to talk too loudly or hold detailed conversations 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 conclusive to study.

Just inside the library doors is the desk where books are checked in and out, fines are charged and collected, and information 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 are the stacks . They contain books on every possible subject.

In 1944 the Student Council sponsored a book drive which brought the total number of books to nearly 15,000. 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 supervision of Mrs. Willis, whose office is conveniently located at the east of the stacks.

She has spent a number of years in public library work and holds her degree in Library Science 路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 periodicals 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, commentaries, and other general reference materials. In conspicous racks, conveniently placed, are current newspapers, magazines, government and other official reports, and "bestsellers."

Beautiful paintings adorn the walls of the library and give one a greater appreciation for the finer things of life. The students of Bethany-Peniel College are proud of their library. 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 enlightenment, food for . his soul, and books of laughter for a lonely hour.

HOMI: I:CONOMICS DI:PARTMENT 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 meeting 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 serve 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 style and color of possible additions, the students master techniques 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.

The department offers some forty-eight hours of work-thirty-eight of which are required for a maror. Those receiving their degree in Home Economics are given a formal tea at commencement time as a fitting climax of their successful college career.

189

SCI~NC~ D~PARTMENT The Bethany-Peniel College department of science touches nearly every student on the campus sometime during his college career, because several science hours are required for almost any recognized 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 cam路 pus critic has remarked that the only people who really 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 disection of a cat.

Numerous colored charts and enlarged models of various organisms have been added to the equipment this year. Maurine 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, consequently Mr. Parrish's knowledge 路 froiJl 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 evidence of his efficiency in teaching a large class of gen~al chemistry students all about molecules and atoms, and their reactions. Virginia Moore; Don Beaver, and Ann France provide excellent assistance in mixing those mysterious "unknowns" and answering many questions for the newcomers.

Prof. Hall makes you feel right at home in the physics class. From his ample instruction one learns the whys and wherefores behind the electric light, the radio, the combustion engine, and the laws of physical science. In this class, Prof. Hall passes all of the questions that he cannot answer on to his assistant, Calvin Rainbolt, who invariably knows where to find the solution-See Prof. Hall.

SCIENCE. Prof. Shannon and Herman Parrish try a new experiment with a complicated apparatus.

191

COMMERCIAL. Prof. Danskin looks on as his typing class "beats out its assignment."

192

COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT One of the newest departments on the campus is the Commercial Department.

Professor D. R. Danskin has efficiently organized and co-ordinat~d the subjects offered, thereby making a strong department. The courses in business education 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 TwoYear Secretarial Course. Those interested 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 certificate for teaching in the public schools 路 of Oklahoma.

The Business Law class is one of the most interesting. It affords one an opportunity 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 Oklahoma City for路 observation.

Most of the other courses in the Commercial Department are on different phases of stenography. Shorthand is offered, and practice is given in' taking dictation 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 p.ut 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 notebooks have a far more pleasing , appearance 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 everyday li(e. One learns how to make out a personal budget and put it into practice, as well as the more complicated procedures of commercial bookkeeping.

BOOK FIVE

It may be elevating symphonic strains; the inspiration to follow "In His Steps," motivated by the challenge of a dramatic presentation; or the recital on ENOCH ARDEN that deepens appreciation for the expression of. 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 ARROW salesman, write copy, interview "characters," or develop films, he is enriching himself by the versatility of his campus experiences.

The Honor Society pin wearer realizes that knowledge must be "worked for, studied for, thought for, and prayed for."

True cultivation is that which gives us sympathy with every form of human life, enabling us to work most successfully for its advancement. Then it is that the common and the uncommon things are etherealized and animated by the sheen of true appreciation.

FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT The Fine Arts Department is one of the fastest growing departments of BethanyPeniel College. During the second semester of this year 380 students were enrolled. 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. 0.

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. Mus. 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.

The two most important vocal groups on the campus are the A Cappella 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 Cappella Choir are: President, George Moore; Vice-President, Carroll Harville; Secretary, Elizabeth Hale.

The A Cappella Choir sang one Sunday evening of each month at the local First Church. It has also presented programs 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' organization 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 outstanding 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 Christ in Oklahoma City.

ORC~ESTRA

Willis Flick, instructor

and BAND

The Band was organized this year for the first time and was directed by Prof. \ Vayne Thorne. 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 the 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 professional 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 Egyptien 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 precussion instruments. It has played three successful concerts and made appearances at the Oklahoma City First Church and at a student body assembly. Prominent among their selections are : "Triumphal March," "II Bachio," "Valse Triste," "In a Persian Market," and "Minuet in E Flat."

QUARTETS Students with outstanding vocal talent are grouped together for quartet and trio work. This year there have been nine ladies' organizations and five men's.

Prominent among the girl's groups are the Abilene and Cleo Trios and the Aeolian Quartet. During the year they have contributed music for chapel programs, church services, and college tours. A trio of prospective missionaries includes Vivian Beckel, Daurthyq~arie Faulkner, and Goldie 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.

One of the five male quartets sang in. cllapel on Monday of each week. On Sundays these groups

TRIOS participated in services in neighboring churches, and often took time out to hold revival meeting. Revivals have been conducted in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas during the year.

The Sophomore Quartet made two tours with Dr. Finch in Kansas and Texas. The McMahon Evangelistic Party kept busy in week-end services, young people's. rallies, and largescale 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 endeavored to make a lasting contribution to the spiritual welfare of the churches where they have sung. The main purpose has been to win the youth of our Educational Zone to Christ.

SPEEC~

DEPARTMENT

The Speech Department deals with four phases of expression : public speaking, debate, interpretation, and dramatics. There is a total enrollment of 225 in the department and five teachers.

In the annual dramatics presentation a series of four one act plays were given . These were: "The Confessional," directed by Delene Stockton; a comedy, "Thursday Evening," directed by Helen Faye Moore; a 路tragedy, " Hearts Enduring," directed by Blanche Andrew; and a religious play, "The Challenge of the Cross," directed by Ruth Parham.

Three students presented graduate speech recitals. On November 2 Blanche Andrew gave "An Evening With Tennyson," featuring a condensation of the famous poem "Enoch Arden."

A male quartet sang "Crossing the Bar" and "Sweet and Low." Mariana Sears provided background music on the organ.

Wana Walker featured "Poetry Written in America's Three Greatest Wars-the Civil War, World War ,1, and World War II." Patriotic decorations gave an appropriate setting, and favorite 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 scripture and poetry the various phases of the life of Christ. The outstanding part of her program was a portion from the famous book, "The Robe,"

by Lloyd Douglas. She w~s assisted by Carroll Harville and Virginia Hoag.

DEBATE The Debate squad, under the direction of Prof. Harper Welch, had a very profitable year. Participating in several tournaments, the Bethany teams came out on top in competition with leading colleges and universsities 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 l to 3, the teams made a good showing. Deward Finch and Tommie Johnson were undefeated 路 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 victory." However, George Moore came through with a second in oratory.

The whole debate class was privileged to participate in a practice tournament at the University of Oklahoma at Norman . Bethany-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 during the first week of March at Durant, Oklahoma. In this event eighteen states were represented by their leading universities.

Competition was keen. After "sweating out" the preliminary rounds and pulling through to the final s our team of Deward Finch and Tommie Johnson defeated a crack team from University of Louisiana 路 to win the trophy in the senior mixed division .

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 College, a script with a definite spiritual emphasis-"IN HIS STEPS" - was chosen.

Mrs. Talmadge 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 sepal'ate 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 Ha~ilton, and the Sponsor, Prof, Welch .

DELTA LAMBDA

The Phi Delta Lambda Honor Society is not necessarily made up of the "brains" of the college. As Pre~ident 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 Iccorded those students who have a four-year 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 .vas presented in chapel in which the new members, elected 1t the beginning of s·econd semester, were officially taken into :he society. Those receiving ·reeognition in this program were: "'ova Baker, Howard Bynum, Melva Jean Karns, Colleen Karns, ::laude Northcutt, Loretta Oakes, Marieta Snowbarger, Bob froutman, and Eula Merle Simpson. The year's activities :losed with a banquet in March.

The officers of the Chapter are Eugene Verbeck, President;

::;.eorge Moore, Vice-President; Grace Horst, Secretary; and Vliss Ruth Fess, Sponsor.

ARROW Work on tht:: 1946 ARROW began last spring soon after the student body elections.

Plans were laid on the basis of not only publishing 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.

When plans for production were completed . an enormous task loomed up before the staff-the preparing of at least 100 pages more than ever before, the inaugurating of a subscription camp'aign, the contacting of all the churches on the Zone for advertisement, 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 very successful. The Seniors won the class competition with sales equalling 58 % of the membership of their class. Curtis Horn and Mary Ellen Herrin won individual honors with 43 and 36. sales respectively.

Louis McMahon, assisted by Dean \V es.sels, did a grand job as Business Manager, formulating the largest advertising section ever to appear in an ARROW. The credit for doing all of the "dirty work" and supervising the make-up of the book goes to Almeta Mizell, the Associate Editor.

There was never a task too hard for her to undertake.

STAFF Elizabeth Hale, Literary Editor, is the girl who always knows the right word to use at the right time. The 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 Secretary. Many others shared in writing, make-up, photography, and selling ads to help make this book what it is.

Our ever-faithful sponsor, Prof. Thorne, was always on hand when problems were to be worked out, when major decisions of policy were formulated, and when refreshments were served.

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 advantages in being "boss."

Several innovations are included in the 1946 ARROW-infra-red photography, increased number of pages, more literary material, student index, kodachrome pictures, and, most of all, the lithographic process of reproduction.

We hope that you will be proud of your '46 ARROW! Louis 0 . McMahon, Business fv!anager

REVEILLE

EC~O

STAFF

The work of the Reveille Echo staff was highly efficient this year in making their publication a complete and accurate report of 路all happenings on the campus. Realizing that the college newspaper is but a mirror, every !Zlews 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. Failure to take this into consideration would indeed be a. fallacy and the Echo would fall short of its own purpose.

During the first semest~r, under the editorship of Perry Tudor, the paper was changed from four to eight pages. This gave the publication a more attractive appearance, and provided room for more advertising 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 equipment for the staffroom. Two portable typewriters, beveled-edged glass desk tops, fluorescent desk lamps, a metal filing cabinet, a Meriam-Webster unabridged dictionary, several large waste baskets, and a gas stove were purchased . .

At mid-semester Alma Jean Lunn, popular junior co-ed, was selected to' guide the fortunes of the Echo for the remainder of the year. She endeavored to edit a paper that would have 'public appeal with the students, the faculty, and the college constituency. Alma Jean's right-hand-man and Associate Editor was her 'kid' brother, Mervel. It seems that the Lunn's are "naturals" in the publishing business. Together they have done a grand job of presenting an Eclw which was enthusiastically received by everyone.

Seven departmental editors assisted in the 194 5-46 production: Charlene Moore (News), Elizabeth Hale, (Religion) , 路Grace Horst (Feature) , Olen Riggs and Mary Ellen Herrin (Sports), and Lee Dona Kerr (Make-up) . Bonnie Coppock, cartoonist, gave sparkle to the paper and also to the sraffroom by her interesting drawings. One of the most important members of the staff, Prof. J. W. Moore, sponsor, worked quietly behind the scenes, but his advice and counsel were major factors in giving the paper' its high quality.

In . recognition of. outstanding service, honor keys were given to the departmental editors as a permanent recognition of their fine service in journalism 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 succeeding classes an opportnuity to view the highlights of the past terms with a bound volume of his publication.

The Reveiiie Echo has efficiently served its purposestudents found outlets for creative expression, the spirit of cooperati.on was generated in working to meet bi'-monthly deadlines, interests of the college were unified and promoted, and the leadership qualities in the various editors

were developed.

THE DRAG "THE DRAG" is without question the most popular place on the campus. 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 atmosphere 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 th<1t 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 installed 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.

Up through 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.

Through these progressive years, natural gas has played a vital part in the development of your state. The contributions made by natural gas are hundred-fold ... and we in the gas industry take pride in presenting to you the record of accomplishments made by natural gas in your state during the past several decades.

Back in the early days before Oklahoma became a state, the only peo路 pie using natural gas were those living close to sources of supply.

This was largely due to lack of pipe line facilities.

e By

1910 natural gas pipe line facilities 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 Oklahomans.

e

Today, nearly everyone in Oklahoma enjoys good, efficient gas service to heat their homes in winter, to cook their meals 365 days in the year, and for dozens qf other household uses .

e

The fact that natural gas is used so nearly unanimously by Oklahomans contributes greatly to keeping Oklahoma cities clean and healthy. In your city there is neither smoke nor soot to mar the sparkling beauty of your modern buildings, schools, churches and parks.

f:lze Printer

THROUGH countless centuries of time, from pyramid building to cathedral building, civilization limped along, dragging one foot wearily after the other, unmindful of passing years, ignorant of the thought world, and not suspecting the possibilities of the common man.

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, romping through the years, scattering new ideas with a prodigal hand as seeds into the fertile soil of human minds. Today, 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.
