Faculty Members Picnic On 'Fruitful Hill' Lawn

The college faculty met on the lawn of "Fruitful Hill," home of Dr. Gervas Carey, for a picnic supper, May 22.

Other guests included Rev. and Mrs. Carl Byrd, and the families of the faculty members. The pot-luck supper and entertainment was planned by Miss Helen Will-cuts, home economics instructor, and Mrs. Lydia McNichols, music instructor.

Scribblers Publish Original Anthology

"The Scribbler", an anthology of original verse written by GFC students will be on sale by the Scribblers, English majors club, early next week.

Culminating the activities of the club for 1950-51, publishing the anthology was the Scribblers' major project of the year. The poems published in the book were selected by a committee compos­ed of two members of the club, along with their faculty adviser, Dean McNichols, from the many which were submitted by creative writers of the student body.

The covers for the book were designed by Ruth Mills and print­ed by the Carter Press, Portland. The cost of the anthology, which will be on sale in the main hall of the administration building, will not exceed 50 cents, it was re­ported by the executive commit­tee of the Scribblers.

L'Ami Will Reach Student Hands Soon

The L'Ami, student published yearbook, was sent to the bind­ers last Wednesday for the final step toward its completion. It was announced at that time by Margaret Stattuck, assistant edi­tor of the publication, that the 116 page annuals will arrive a few days before school is out for dis­tribution to t;he students.

"The book will have padded covers, but its color- and design remain a secret," Miss Shattuck added.

The printers of the yearbook have used their new press in re­producing the photographs, which they reported are of a high cali­bre. The photographic work was done by Riley Studio, Newberg.

Dick Beebe, business manager for the L'Ami, announces that since 200 books were ordered, a very limited number will be for sale to outsiders.

Wyman Discusses Winning Subject

Larry Wyman, junior, and Jim Higgins, freshman, were chosen by the judges, Rev. Carl Byrd, Paul Mills, and Gervas Carey, as first and second place winners, respectively, of the 1951 "Old Pul­pit Sermonette Contest", May 18. The finals were held during the chapel hour.

Forensics chairman, Florene Price, introduced the speakers and their topics.

First prize winner, Larry Wy­man, in his discussion of "Our [Best for Christ", read Malachi 1:6-14 and mentioned the differ­ent reasons why God was angry with the people of Israel. Two of the causes, Larry said, "could be applied to our lives today; God was displeased because the people brought their offerings as a duty alone, forgetting the One they had once loved. Second, they did not give their best." In conclusion, Larry added, "People, God de­mands your best, are you giving your best now?"

The first place winner received $5.00, and will have his name en­graved upon the bronze plate which is mounted on the first pul­pit ever used in Newberg, the pulpit from which these sermon­ette contestants spoke.

Jim Higgins referred to Mat­thew 7:15-20 and Psalms 1:3 for his topic, "Our Life Is as a Tree." "As with trees, we as Christians must have our roots an­chored to withstand the storms of life. If we are anchored in the Rock, Christ Jesus, we need never fear the storms. . . . Let our lives bear fruit for the Lord." This sec­ond prize winner received $2.50.

Juniors Paul Puckett and John­ny Williams also competed in the contest. Paul's topic was "Obed­ience" taken from I Samuel 15:22, and Johnny's "The Greatest Com­mandment" was found in Mark 12:30-31.

Summer School Plans Receive Small Response

There has been little response in the way of application for en­rollment, to the decision of the board of trustees for a summer session this year a t GFC, it was announced by President Parker this week.

If, however, enough students are still interested in attending summer school at the end of this semester, courses will be offered as previously planned.

Alumni Association '51 Graduates Will

A "Spring Round-Up a t George Fox College" will be held this year as the alumni banquet on Friday, June 1, at 7 p. m.

Let Us Give Thanks! With only final examinations ahead of us, another

school year is rapidly drawing to a close. It has been full of unforgetful moments, decisive, formative moments, times of relaxation and enjoyment. Before we separate for sum­mer vacation may we take time to thank God for His helping us to use these precious moments in a way pleasing to both God and man.

God has answered prayer in the way of encouragement, and even miraeles. May we never forget to ascribe honor where it is due!

yThat They Have Not Died in Vain . . / This year we pause for a day in the busy week of

exams to pay honor to the dead. Memorial day has special meaning this year. Not only the dead of two wars will have tribute payed to them but also the recent fallen in Korea.

A day when hundreds throng to the graves of those who have been dear and bring flowers, some wreaths ftom the corner florist, some bouquets from gardens. Out in the military plots overseas the natives bring their personal tributes to place below the white crosses. All come, rich and poor alike to share in the one common bond, that of set­ting aside a day in remembering those dead.

As war approaches, we pray that the number of those men who represent the Unknown Soldier will not be soon increased.

It is our hope that our tribute to these who have given all is as earnest and sincere as the spirit in which they gave it.

—B. Barnes

Approaching Commencement Brings Memories of Achievements in Past

By Marjorie Larrance As Commencement approaches,

most of us feel that this year is unwinding entirely too fast. It seems only a few days ago that the student mixer, formal recep­tion and other activities were ushering in the new school year. Yet somehow the year has stolen by when we weren't looking and we awaken to find ourselves on the eve of graduation.

The four years since the seniors of '51 entered George Pox college have been good years. They have seen the college take many steps up the ladder of scholastic achieve­ment as well as much spiritual advancement.

Shower Honors Senior Bride-to-Be

In Kanyon hall parlor, decor­ated with white wedding bells and a miniature bride and groom, Miss Norma Dillon, senior, was honored with a bridal shower May 17.

Misses Martha Lemmons, Mar­garet Shattuck, and Elvera Cole­man, seniors, and Betty May Street, junior, were hostesses.

Miss Priscilla Doble, junior, sang "Till the End of Time," ac­companied by Miss Lucy Clark, GFC instructor. A humorous reading was given by Miss Marie Williams, freshman.

After the program, three-year-old Miss Sheryl Piersall entered the room, pulling a wagon-load of gifts in a red wagon, decorated with white crepe paper. After Miss Dillon had opened the gifts, refreshments were served. The bride's cake and punch, with candy and nuts, were prepared by Mrs. Violet Brown, Miss Leona White, and Mrs. Crittie Knight.

Approximately 60 guests were present at the shower.

Wedding Bells Begin to Ring

By Florene Price "Dearly Beloved, we are gath­

ered together" . . . so a hush falls over the audience as the minister begins with the familiar words of the wedding ceremony. The at­tendants are smiling proudly and a bit nervously as they listen to the vows. The groom shifts his feet restlessly and swallows hard as his part approaches. He glances at his bride-to-be as she stands close beside him.

The bride coughs a little and tries to smile as the happiness wells up in her heart. Her eyes are shining; her white satin gown and train make her as an angel as she stands with her husband-to-be.

Dad pulls out his handkerchief as he sees the happy tears of Mom well from her eyes. Aunt Sue whispers to the youngsters to please be quiet and listen as Grandma bows her head in sweet remembrance and a secret prayer ascends on behalf of these young people.

Outside there is restful hush over the church lawn. A faint summer breeze whispers in the trees and peeks down at the long tables of wedding gifts.

The couple kneels by the flow­er-banked altar and "The Lord's Prayer" is sung by Brother Jim, his young tenor voice faltering now and then.

Then its all over and the new couple hurry down the aisle to the reception outside. Pictures are taken, cake and ice cream is pass­ed out, gifts are admired and as the rice descends, the pair departs for their honeymoon.

Relatives brush away any re­maining tears and begin to start home as Lucy and Andy, Norma and Dick, Betty May and Gene, Nigel and Pat, Nadine and Gene, Al and Martha, Jack and Mai*y-nette, or any of the other hun­dreds of summer wedding couples start their lives together.

There's something about a sum­mer wedding that's different. Don't you like them? . . . I do!

The concluding four years are filled with memories that will never be forgotten as the seniors leave their alma Mater halls and launch into their life's work.

What happens after the senior receives his "sheep skin" ? For some it will mean the beginning of a life's vocation; for others, simply a breathing space before graduate study is begun; for all it means the continuation of the educational process which never ends.

There is a certain amount of ex­hilaration that naturally comes with the completion of a job well done. One also experiences a mo­ment of hesitation before he takes the final step up the mountain of college education and stands over­looking a valley of countless op­portunities and goals that may be reached if the right decisions are made. Whether life proves suc­cessful or not will be determined by the type of "star" the individ­ual "hitches his wagon to."

Someone has suggested that a fitting commencement address would be: "Ladies and gentlemen, life can be very lovely or very sad. I t will probably be a mix­ture of both—Goodbye, and God go with you."

Music Department Presents Program

The music department present­ed a chapel of light-opera and semi-clasical music on Monday, May 21. Featured were Marilyn Barnes, alto soloist, a gills' trio composed of Jeannette Saucy, Marilyn Barnes and Priscilla Doble, and Bud Mardock and Pris­cilla Doble singing tenor-sopra­no duets.

Mjarilyn, who was appropriately dressed in an old-fashioned blue party dress, sang "Alice-Blue Gown" accompanied by Marvin Baker, voice instructor, and as­sisted by Harry Ryan on the trumpet.

The trio, accompanied by Beth-lin Harmon, were costumed in pastel-colored formals. They sang "Waltz of the Flowers" from Tschaikovosky's "Nut c r a c k e r Suite", "Serenade" from "The Stu­dent Prince", "Stardust", "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes", from "Rober­ta", and "Summer-time" from "Porgy find Bess".

Fred Littlefield accompanied Bud and Priscilla who sang "Night and Day" from the production of the same name, which is a bio­graphy of the life of the composer, Cole Porter, "Memories", "Want ing You", "Play Gypsies", "Dance Gypsies", and "With a Song in My Heart".

Hal May Directs Original Drama

"Cross Roads," an original Bib­lical drama written and directed by Hal May was presented Wednes­day evening at Wood-Mar hall.

The one-act play was based up­on the story of Abraham and Lot Their servants were quarreling over the pasture land. As a result. Lot chose the good plain toward Sodom and Gomorrah and left Canaan for Abraham.

Dick Zeller portrayed Abraham while Lot was played by Jim Higgins. Lot's wife, Zipporah was played by Lucy Edmundson; her handmaid, Bethmeal by Margaret Weber.

Bob Saucy, Woody Fletcher and Gerald Lemmons were the herdsmen. Cliff Ralphs read the scripture setting.

Stage lighting managers were Harold Magee and Ted Eichenber-ger while Marilyn Barnes was in charge of properties. Margaret Shattuck and Martha Lemmons directed the costuming, and Gladys Engle and Arleta Wright did the make-up.

This play is the second Biblical drama to be presented. Betty May Street previously piesented "Such As We Have."

Dear Gremlin Friends: My, here it is the end of the

year already. Seems just the oth­er day that the PEOPLE came to register. Just a few more term papers, exams; then they will all go home and we gremlins will have fun.

This has been a good year. So many things have happened. Say, didn't THEY have the times!

REMEMBER: When the freshmen were shy

little creatures . . . when Marlon Ciarkson made that famous touch­down . . . and when Arleta Wright's car turned up at the most unusual places . . . the time that you forgot that assignment and the teacher called on you for the first time.

When the boiler was installed . . .the days when Cliff and Howie were still free men . . . when Jerry (shoot-the-ball-from-the floor) Carr, Bob (lover-boy) Saucy and John Wood were still surveying the field . . . the pep-band becoming a reality . . nut-picking and the liniment that fol­lowed afterwards . . . how Poo-cnie Perry got sheared the first time.

Remember Homecoming and that famous Reed game and Abe (Nigel) Lincoln? When the "Who's Who" selections were Margaret Shattuck and Louise Ralphs . . . the packed high school auditorium for The Gospel Quar­tet Festival . . . when Gene Mul-key and John Wood took that "long walk" . . . when the "Mes­siah" was presented and later the four soloists paired up: Robison, Barnes; Zeller, Doble . . . Edwards —the meeting place of the cam­pus eligibles . . . how Glen Liv­ingston had his birthday celebrat­ed once a week in the dining hall . . . when George came to visit.

Remember the two revivals with Fred Baker and Donald A. Spitler . . . the good chapel speakers and the lighter Friday chapels . . . when the formal receptions came off smoothly under the supervi­sion of Arleta, especially that Jan­uary "Snow-theme".

Remember the freshman issue of The Crescent . . . business man­ager Walter Lee going to Bolivia . . . the fire-watcher brigade of Hoover turning out for water sports . . . when Bill (William Meadows) Field was disclosed as the What's Bruin man . . . the com­munity chorus singing "Olivet to Calvary" . . . Spring vacation with the Idaho choir trip and en­gagement of Smith-Snow; O'Brien-Clark; Fodge-Mulkey combina­tions.

Remember the all-school birth­day dinner . . . the junior sneak . . . the times you've been in hot water for some reason (class skips) and ended up in the dean's office. Remember the Missionary Conference and that say-so chapel service . . . the beautiful weather on May Day . . . Queen Margaret and Cardinal Gerald . . . May pole winding . . . the musical.

Not so long past—remember these announcements ? Norma Dillon to Dick Beebe and Betty May Street to Gene Hockett . . . Lucy Clark (the woman with a gopher trap) and her Andy?

Recitals, old pulpit contest, the choir banquet . . . Cascade choir chapel this week and as this goes to press I see Roger Smith and Joyce Peck sunning themselves.

Remember the wonderful times the PEOPLE have had this year? I do.

Have a nice vacation. Sincerely,

SAMMY, Chief of the Gremlins

This project, financed by the Class of '49, is one that will great­ly add to the beauty and distinc­tion of our campus.

The markers will be made of brick, similar to that of which the administration building is made. Each column will be two feet square and ten feet high, with the words, "George Fox Col­lege", in glazed tile. The letters have been designed by Howard Royle, GFC instructor.

Cascadians Sing In Chapel Concert

On Tuesday, May 22, the Cas­cade college a cappella choir, di­rected by William Keith Macy, was presented in concert during the morning chapel hour.

Following the senior class ex­odus, junior prexy Howard Har­mon exhorted to the sophomores, as they became upperclassmen, to "take time to pray."

Bob Saucy, sophomore leader, praised the freshmen for their shouldering of school respon­sibility after the juniors marched forward to the senior section.

When the sophomores had seat­ed themselves in the junior seats, Nigel Shockey replied for the freshmen, that they had "learned to pray more intellegently as a class after a year at GFC."

Dr. Parker gave the previously announced "Who's Who" presen­tations to Margaret Shattuck and Louise Fivecoat Ralphs. He then saluated the class of '55 that will fill the seats the freshmen had just vacated and concluded with prayer.

Senior Class Prophecy . . .

Shatfuck's Champs Enjoy Dill on Pickles by Beebe May 16, 1981

Dear Diary: We left home at 6:33 this morn­

ing on our way back to Plymouth Rock, Massachusetts, to take over Roy Lawrence's chicken farm and museum while he goes to his fam­ily reunion. On our way, just out­side of town we stopped for gas and who did we see, but Wllma Harris. She said she had just spent a week at the Don McNich­ols' home in hopes that Don would still give her an "A" for that course she didn't pass in college. She told us about Don Bowers who goes to Harvard. He plays quaiterback on the football team and still thinks he's a refund. At 7:17 tonight we stopped at the hotel only to discover that Hal May was the elevator operator there. Further on down the hall we saw Gene Smith carrying his brooms and mops. We understand that he is the hotel janitor. Good night, dear diary.

Juniors Sponsor Chordsmen Concert

Sponsored by the GFC junior class, the Chordsmen from the Portland Hughes Memorial Meth­odist church presented a concert at George Fox college on Satur­day, May 19.

The Chordsmen are composed of nine negro men who are of high school and college age. The church pastor, Rev. Ennis Whaley, is their director.

The forty-five minute program featured negro spirituals and folk songs, ranging in style from reg­ular arrangements to extreme modern chord arrangements. Also the group rendered two popular ballads.

A fun night is sponsored each year by the junior class to raise money for the class projects. Howard Harmon is the junior class president.

We watched the baseball game this afternoon and who was the star but Bill "Babe Ruth" Delapp. They announced that his batting average for the season is .467. We stopped at a hotel again.

May 18, 1981 Dear Diary:

Early this morning we saw Wayne Piersall who is in the navy again. He informed us that he is stationed at a dirigible base, but there is only one problem•— he has to wear his hat all of the time. They got him mixed up once and the helium didn't set so well with him. In town we heard a loud speaker advertising the old fashioned tent meetings being held there. Louise Ralphs was ad­vertised as the musician-evangel­ist. She plays nine different in­struments and her husband accom­panies her. When we ate lunch today we discovered that Pete Fertello and Lloyd Lyda were the chief chefs of the restaurant. They do the heavy work of the kitch­en, making pies, cakes, biscuits, and jello. When we went into the department store we ended up in the millinery department. There we saw Gladys Engle exhibiting her exclusive millinery designs un­der the name of Madame el Chap? eau. Good night, dear diary.

May 19, 1981 Dear Diary:

Today as "we were looking through the latest edition of Pop­ular Mechanics magazine, we no­ticed Norma Dillon's picture. She's lovely; she's engaged; she uses Duz. It finally lived up to its name. Now Duz has done everything! In the bookstore we noticed Littlefield's Learner, the new primary text for first and

second graders. Fred has made quite a fortune by starting the little kWs out on reading Shake­speare's greatest tragedies. Sev­eral miles south of Chicago wo visited Dickson's Dairy. While Margaret was showing us her live­stock, which consisted of four cows, a rooster, and a rabbit, she told us about Oilman Bland. It seems that he is now a famous brain surgeon at the Mayo Broth­ers clinic in Minnesota. He told Margaret recently when they met that the best part about his job was that he could bury all of his mistakes. As we went through town we noticed a sign pointing to Martha's School foV Mental Midgets. Martha Lemmons really took her college class in abnormal psychology to heart. On the other side of town we passed Gene's Golf Gardens. Gene really sym­pathizes with those who can't break 100 because he never could himself. Gene informed us that Harold Magee is now professor of English at Vassar college -for women. Also he is currently help­ing Wilma on her fourth novel. We hope to arrive at Plymouth Rock tomorrow. Good night, dear diary.

Don't miss a final exam! A complete test schedule is posted on the adminis­tration building bulletin board.

By Ralph Becbe The 1950-51 school year proved

to be a very interesting one in athletics.

After winning the first football game, George Bales' gridders just couldn't find the punch it takes to be a consistent winner. The outstanding game, from the angle of publicity, was when the Quak­ers made national news by losing a 13-7 game to Reed. The Grif­fins had a much publicized 17 game losing streak before the game. George Fox ended the sea­son with a one win, six loss rec­ord, for the first losing season since George Bales took over the helm in 1948.

Basketball was a different story. Coach Bales molded a team com­posed of a few veterans and sev­eral freshmen, none over 6 feet tal), into a fast, smooth-working unit which won- 14 games and lost only seven. The squad dead­locked with Reed for second place in the Metropolitan Conference with six wins and four losses, be­hind Oregon Dental.

Baseball season rolled around in the spring, as usual, and Bar­ney (Mac) McGrath took over the coaching duties. Inability to get games delayed the campaign, and then, when they did get started, the Quaker nine dropped its first two games, but came roaring back to make it a very successful sea­son.

The softball team, under the guidance of DeForrest (Woody) Fletcher, won three and lost five. The team was a little weak with the stick, but played great de­fensive ball most of the time.

The girls were also active in basketball, volleyball, and soft-ball, and won quite a number of games. Shortly after the basket­ball season ended, three represent­atives of the team went to Lin-field college and won a free throw tournament, participating against girls from several of the colleges of this area.

So, the athletic picture was bright for the most part. The type of sportsmanship maintained throughout the year was one of the highlights. In victory or de­feat, the Quaker athletes always had a smile on their faces and a word of praise for the opposition. In the light of this, we hail Chris­tian athletics as a vital part of education.

One realizes what a. great thing it is to play ball for a college such a s George Fox, when he con­siders the recent basketball scan­dal throughout the nation. George Bales can do a t GFC, on a very minimum, what large universities and colleges fail to do with hun­dreds of thousands of dollars. That is, to develop the lives of the athletes, and help them to become morally strong, unswayed by the evil influences about them, and having a never-dying desire for fair play at all times.

* * * The Portland Beavers, after a

strong start, finally had that long expected leveling off. The Bevos are still in the thick of the fight, however, and may continue to sur­prise the sports writers from the big California cities, who think of the Beavers as "poor little Portland" which can't ever seem to turn out a pennant conten­der. But this seems to be the

Quakers Win Final The baseball team won its

fourth straight in the final game of the season yesterday, beating Concordia 5-2. Gene Smith pitch­ed his fourth complete game, and gained his fourth win without a loss.

Neither pitcher issued a walk. Smith struck out eleven, and Roy Streufert, or? the hill for Con­cordia, fanned two. In 38 innings this year Smith whiffed 38, and gave 38 hits in 163 times at bat, giving the opposition a .233 "bat­ting average against him. He gave up only nine walks.

Jim Clayton scored in the third on two errors. Triples by Cliff Ralphs and Sammy Andrews, plus a single by Kenny Magee, gave the GF'ers two more in the fourth. Another was added in the fifth when Verne Martin lined a home run blast to right center. The ball rolled to the football goal

post, an estimated 375 feet from home plate.

In the seventh Ralph Beebe doubled, and Martin singled for

) the final run. Luke Kriefall hom­ered in the seventh, and scored again in the ninth on a triple and an infield out. Smith had re­tired 17 of the 18 preceding bat­ters when Kriefall connected in the seventh.

Hard luck man was Harry Ma­gee, who banged out three liners to left center, all of which were caught on great catches.

After the game, the Concordia players visited the campus and were dining hall guests of the col­lege. A double quartet of Con­cordia fellows sang "Beautiful Saviour".

year, and if they could regain their early season form, the Port-landers might surprise a lot of people.

As the major leagues near the one-quarter mark, the New York Yankees are leading the American league and the Brooklyn Dodg­ers are holding first place in trie National. In the latter, only six games separate the first and last teams, indicating the extreme closeness of the race. The first six teams in the American are also close, with the surprise team being the Chicago White Sox who are in second place.

Before the next issue of the Crescent, George Bales will have dragged out the football g e a r ^ n preparation for another grid sea­son. So goodbye until next fall.

Overtime Thriller Finishes in Ninth With Quaker Victory Over Concordia

The Quaker Baseballers made it three in a row Saturday, beating Concordia 7-6 in the ninth inning of a game scheduled for seven. The winning run scored as Cliff Ralphs hit a long triple after Verne Martin had singled. The game was played at Concordia.

Gene Smith went the route, chalking up his third win against no losses. The slender righthand­er struck out seven and walked three. In 29 innings, Smith has fanned 27, walked only nine, and given up 33 hits and ten earned runs for a 3.10 earned run aver­age.

In the top of the first, Ralph Beebe doubled, and scored on singles by Verne Martin and Dick Zeller. Five more were added in the top of the second on singles by Sammy Andrews and Cliff Ralphs, two walks, and three er­rors. Concordia got one back in the fourth and one in the sixth, making the score 6-4 as the Port­land school came up in the do-or-die seventh. A single, a bunt with all hands safe, and a double by Kellerman tied the score with Kellerman going to third on the throw in.

This put the Quakers in quite a hole, with the winning run on third and none out, but Smith set­tled down and pitched masterful­ly. Krueger popped a fly to short center that was too shallow to enable the runner on third to score. W. Visser struck out on a sharp breaking sinker which hit the dirt and got past the catcher. Zeller recovered in time to tag the runner coming in from third and two were out. Visser stole second but was out stealing third to end the inning.

In the top of the ninth, with one away, Martin singled. Then, after two were down, Ralphs hit a long liner to right, his opposite field. It went for a triple and Martin scored easily.

Smith retired the side one-two-three in the last of the ninth and the game was over.
