26th Garden<br />

Day Features<br />

Dwight Strickler<br />

Professor Dwight J. Strickler<br />

has been chosen as guest<br />

speaker for the 26th Annual<br />

Garden Day Festival to be<br />

held June 2.<br />

Professor Strickler plans to<br />

speak on "Hydroponics." The<br />

subject of Hydroponics is more<br />

simply stated as "Growing<br />

Plants without Soil" by supplying<br />

nutritive chemical solutions.<br />

Such experiments during<br />

the Second World War in<br />

certain coral reef and atoll<br />

portions of the Pacific provided<br />

"greens" for the U. S. Navy<br />

in those areas. Hydroponic<br />

cultivation of algae is at present<br />

under experimentation as<br />

nutrition for astronauts in<br />

space exploration.<br />

The festivities of the day<br />

will begin with the retirement<br />

of 1960-61 Campus Queen, Miss<br />

Linda Luther, and her court.<br />

The 1961-62 Campus Queen is<br />

DeLee Gemmer. She is attended<br />

by two girls from each<br />

class. The winding of the<br />

<strong>May</strong>pole will take place next<br />

with two winders from each<br />

class. Music will be provided<br />

by the A Cappella Choir.<br />

Following the invocation and<br />

welcome, Associate Professor<br />

of Botany Douglas LeMaster<br />

will introduce the speaker and<br />

conduct the tour of the Arboretum<br />

and Botanical Gardens.<br />

Garden Day exercises, as<br />

usual, are open to anyone interested,<br />

but especially to<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> College students<br />

and friends.<br />

Derby Day And Campus Sing<br />

The first annual Derby Day<br />

of <strong>Huntington</strong> College was held<br />

Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 12, on the college<br />

campus. Sponsored by<br />

the newly formed BSM Club<br />

(Boosters of School Morale),<br />

Derby Day was considered a<br />

success by all who participated<br />

or merely observed.<br />

Events for the women consisted<br />

of tricycle races, a jumping<br />

rope contest, baseball<br />

throw, a shuffle board contest,<br />

and a sack race. The men competed<br />

in a free-throw shooting<br />

contest, hula hoop twirling<br />

contest, a sack race, and a<br />

The<br />

DeLEE<br />

GEMMER<br />

jumping rope contest. Partners<br />

then competed in an eggthrowing<br />

contest, and the<br />

activities of the morning ended<br />

with a leg contest, contestants<br />

being members of the<br />

BSM Club, and judges being<br />

selected from among the<br />

women attending. Points were<br />

awarded for each of the first<br />

three places in the various<br />

events and were totaled for<br />

the winners of the decathlon<br />

trophies. Individual trophies<br />

were also awarded for the<br />

winners of the ping-pong and<br />

tennis play-offs.<br />

The evening activity consisted<br />

of an all-campus sing which<br />

was well attended and enjoyed<br />

by all. The entertainment<br />

began with the <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College Band playing several<br />

selections under the direction<br />

of Professor Schultz. Following<br />

this, the members of the<br />

BSM Club marched from the<br />

rear of Davis Hall onto the<br />

stage, singing the "<strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College Fight Song." When<br />

they had completed their singing,<br />

of Ceremonies for the show<br />

A Note Of<br />

We, the editors, wish to take<br />

this opportunity to thank our<br />

staff of editors and reporters<br />

and our photographer for<br />

their cooperation with us this<br />

past year.<br />

We wish also to thank our<br />

readers who have been interested<br />

enough to write in to<br />

us, thus making our paper<br />

more interesting. We are very<br />

grateful for your many kind<br />

comments as well as your helpful<br />

criticism.<br />

It takes a lot more than one<br />

or two people to make a newspaper<br />

go; and it involves much<br />

W. M. Goode<br />

Appreciation<br />

work on the part of many<br />

people, not the least of which<br />

has been our advisor, Mr.<br />

Goode, without whose active<br />

interest and help we would<br />

have been sunk!<br />

We sincerely hope that there<br />

will be someone interested<br />

enough in keeping the school<br />

newspaper running to take the<br />

editorship for next year, and<br />

that the staff and reading constituency<br />

will be as helpfully<br />

critical, interested in, and<br />

faithful to THE HUNTING­<br />

Our Heart:<br />

Christ's<br />

Kingdom<br />

Religion is not an art nor a<br />

science; it is a life. It is<br />

not the mere learning and following<br />

of a set of rules. It<br />

is the growth of Christlike¬<br />

ness in the heart, spreading<br />

thence into the whole of the<br />

being. It is the setting up<br />

of the kingdom of heaven<br />

within us. This kingdom in<br />

one's heart is the rule and<br />

authority of Christ, owned and<br />

recognized there at the fount<br />

and spring of the life. It<br />

is the rule of love -"the<br />

love<br />

of Christ constraineth me." St.<br />

Paul goes still further, however,<br />

and speaks of it as a<br />

new incarnation. "Christ liveth<br />

in me," he says. A Christian<br />

life is therefore really the personal<br />

reign of Christ in the<br />

heart of every one who accepts<br />

Him. The conquest is<br />

slow-that is, the heavenly king<br />

finds His kingdom under alien<br />

sway, and to get full possession<br />

and to reign supreme and<br />

alone He must subdue the<br />

whole of the old nature. It is<br />

this work of conquest and subjugation<br />

that goes on in this<br />

world, and it is not complete<br />

until the believer passes into<br />

heaven. All earthly Christian<br />

life is therefore, learning<br />

to be a Christian. We should<br />

bend all the energies of our<br />

being toward the bringing of<br />

heart, mind, and will into complete<br />

subjection to our King.<br />

BOOK REVIEW<br />

Alexander Hamilton: Portrait<br />

in Paradox by John C.<br />

Miller is a biography of one<br />

of America's greatest statesmen.<br />

Hamilton rose by sheer<br />

brilliance and courage to high<br />

social, political, and military<br />

position in this country. This<br />

man of vision and audacity<br />

devoted himself to public service<br />

and the cause of American<br />

union. As a proud young<br />

colonel Hamilton thirsted for<br />

martial glory, quarreled with<br />

Washington, starred at the battles<br />

of Monmouth and Yorktown.<br />

He created a party and<br />

-then killed his creation. He<br />

played a vital role in the<br />

Benedict Arnold story. Though<br />

he had little love for the A¬<br />

merican people, he worked untiringly<br />

to make the United<br />

States a powerful nation. The<br />

author of this book explores<br />

Hamilton's thinking and the experiences<br />

and influences that<br />

shaped his attitudes and molded<br />

his policies.<br />

The Past Is But Prelude<br />

To The Future<br />

Another commencement is almost here. For some it means<br />

the last term papers, book reports, and final exams. For some<br />

of us it means the transfer of personnel folders, active for four<br />

years, accumulating grades anecdotal comments, test scores, etc.,<br />

to the inactive files. This is a period of mixed emotions. Seniors<br />

are looking back over their college days, wondering if they have<br />

progressed sufficiently to face the next phase of their lives. Under<br />

classmen and staff are looking forward to what lies ahead.<br />

We can look back over these years with a certain amount of<br />

pride. Not only because of the intangible evidences of progress<br />

but also because of that intangible atmosphere prevailing on our<br />

campus which should make our progress move at a continually<br />

accelerated rate.<br />

Our seniors entered a college of 237 students; they are being<br />

graduated from a college of 440 students. They saw the stacks<br />

completed in Loew-Alumni library and were among the first to<br />

use the main floor. Wright Memorial Hall grew one story and<br />

other residence halls began to bulge at the seams. Forest Glen<br />

Park and the tennis courts became a reality. Contracts have been<br />

awarded and construction will begin this spring on the new science<br />

hall. The curriculum was broadened and deepened and<br />

the staff was increased accordingly. But most significantly,<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> College achieved that long sought after goal of full<br />

regional accreditation.<br />

But what of the future? What new evidence of progress will<br />

the next graduating class add to this list - - and the class after<br />

that? We must move forward; there is no going back, only looking<br />

back from time to time to maintain our bearings. We cannot<br />

even stand still for in this day and age standing still is tantamount<br />

to going back. According to the journals, the demands<br />

on colleges are becoming greater. The high schools are turning<br />

out graduates superior to those of only a few years ago. Business<br />

and industry are joining the ranks of the professions in demanding<br />

not fewer technically trained machine operators but<br />

more men trained in the framework of the liberal arts college.<br />

There is no doubt that <strong>Huntington</strong> is at the threshold of an exciting<br />

period of growth. The Development and Public Relations<br />

Council is outlining an ambitious building and expansion program.<br />

A new womens' dormitory is now in the planning stages,<br />

and a student union building should soon follow. Special<br />

committees including both faculty and students have been appointed<br />

to work on floor plans and designs. Other buildings<br />

in the offing include a fine arts building, an auditorium and possibly<br />

a fieldhouse. These buildings will not come over night<br />

and neither will they come easily, but they will come.<br />

Much has been said here concerning buildings and academic<br />

progress and both are needed. There is however, another aspect<br />

of the college which must always be included in our planning.<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> is a Christian liberal arts college, and if<br />

there is to be true development on the basis of the whole program<br />

of the school it must and will include this Christian aspect<br />

of the college program. As a good liberal arts college <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

is able to serve the young people of our church and community,<br />

but to complete its reason for existing <strong>Huntington</strong> must<br />

also be a good Christian college.<br />

Some will say that maintaining a consistent Christian college<br />

atmosphere will always be difficult because of the very diversified<br />

nature of our student body. Approximately 45 per cent of<br />

our students come from the supporting United Brethren Church.<br />

The remainder of the student body represents a number of<br />

other denominations. This diversification need not detract<br />

from the Christian atmosphere of the College. Certainly the<br />

United Brethren Church does not claim to be the sole possessor<br />

of the Truth. Some of these other interpretations of the Faith<br />

can stimulate more genuine inquiry and study. It is possible,<br />

however, that this diversification could reduce the Christian nature<br />

of the school. In an effort to avoid some of our theological<br />

differences, there could be a tendency to play down some of the<br />

social issues and eventually slip on some of them.<br />

How then can <strong>Huntington</strong> continue to develop in the total<br />

sense? In the first place it is our responsibility to give each<br />

prospective student enough information for him to properly<br />

evaluate <strong>Huntington</strong> as a Christian institution. Our catalog,<br />

handbook, and social regulations all contain this information.<br />

Another approach would be to explain our position on social and<br />

religious matters rather than to dogmatically state them and<br />

condemn those who do not accept. The last point is one that<br />

has been mentioned before but bears repeating. The state<br />

schools exist because of academic and social objectives and are<br />

supported by taxes. Our College exists not only for these reasons<br />

but because it endeavors to present a Christian witness;<br />

otherwise why would our constituency pay taxes and still support<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> College?<br />

Of course, there will be differences of opinion among the students<br />

on various issues, and this is healthy. It seems, however,<br />

that we have too much at stake in working to improve our College<br />

facilities and activities to be split over issues, the changing<br />

of which could undermine our school's very existence.<br />

— Roger Buzzard


What Did We Do This Year At H. C?<br />

We went to church. We looked out for school<br />

property.<br />

We celebrated Christmas<br />

We enjoyed some light-hearted fun<br />

We thrilled to modern religious drama.<br />

We<br />

Registered<br />

Some of us got rather<br />

old-fashioned.<br />

Some of us really got away from it all. Some of us helped the team. And some of us worked.


WE'LL REMEMBER THESE<br />

How Was That Call, Ump?<br />

For<br />

a while, even the Democrats were seeing pink elephants.<br />

Come on in the water is fine.<br />

Come now, George, is that<br />

the proper attire for that sort<br />

of thing?<br />

Next year, seventy-six trombones. But this year, one tuba! Typical Choir Representatives?<br />

Believe it or not, that third pair of legs from the left won the beautiful (?) legs contest. The<br />

face, of course, didn't win anything.<br />

cf <strong>Huntington</strong> College beginning<br />

in September, <strong>1962</strong>.<br />

Dr. Byrne's address, entitled<br />

"Several Secrets of<br />

Success," was based on the<br />

text found in Timothy 2:15.<br />

Study, service, spirituality, and<br />

skill were identified as four<br />

secrets of success that Christian<br />

college students should<br />

maintain as goals. "Know the<br />

best, be the best, and you will<br />

do the best," declared Dr.<br />

Byrne.<br />

Dr. Elmer Becker, President<br />

of <strong>Huntington</strong> College, led the<br />

invocation preceding the dinner.<br />

Following the dinner,<br />

Doyle Clark, toastmaster, introduced<br />

Howard Cherry,<br />

junior class president, who<br />

cordially welcomed and congratulated<br />

all the seniors. Fred<br />

Grogg, senior class president,<br />

responded in behalf of the<br />

seniors in thanking the juniors<br />

for giving a fine reception.<br />

Special tribute was given the<br />

late Professor Fred R. Con¬<br />

kling, in using his favorite<br />

colors, red and white, and his<br />

chosen flower, the American<br />

Beauty rose, as part of the<br />

decorations.<br />

Seniors wills were entertainingly<br />

read by Miss Nancy<br />

Martin. "A Most Unusual<br />

Day," "Dear Hearts and Gentle<br />

People," and "<strong>May</strong> the Good<br />

Lord Bless and Keep You"<br />

were the vocal selections presented<br />

by Mrs. Richard Klopfenstein,<br />

who was accompanied<br />

by Miss Henrietta Brunner at<br />

the piano. In keeping with<br />

the Japanese theme for the<br />

evening, the senior class prophecy,<br />

read by Miss Karen<br />

Brown, was centered around<br />

the <strong>1962</strong> graduates in Tokyo<br />

in 1968.<br />

An oriental theme was employed<br />

in all of the decorations.<br />

Centerpieces were artistically<br />

done with ming trees,<br />

flowers, birds and rickshaw<br />

runners, while oriental pictures<br />

lined the walls. Tiny<br />

Japanese umbrellas appointed<br />

the tables as individual favors.<br />

Tables were lighted by candlelight.<br />

Behind the speakers'<br />

table a backdrop bearing the<br />

senior motto read: "With God<br />

as Guide, We seek the best."<br />

A very memorable evening<br />

was appropriately closed with<br />

the singing of the Alma Mater.<br />

Derby Day<br />

(Continued From Page One)<br />

and vice-president of the Club,<br />

explained to the audience how<br />

the Club was started and what<br />

it hopes to do for the student<br />

body.<br />

A trophy was offered to<br />

provide an incentive for participation<br />

and was presented to<br />

the group giving the best performance.<br />

Nine individual<br />

groups competed for the first<br />

place trophy. Mrs. Buzzard,<br />

Mrs. Klopfenstein, and Professor<br />

Schultz, the judges for the<br />

evening, felt that the "Matchless<br />

Madrigal Singers" from<br />

Livingston Hall gave the best<br />

performance, and the first<br />

place gold cup was accepted<br />

by Janet Harrington, who led<br />

the group from the dormitory.<br />

The YWCA and Gospel Volunteers<br />

received honorable mention<br />

for their performances.<br />

All were pleased with the<br />

response, both participating<br />

and observing, to HC's first<br />

Derby Day and All-Campus<br />

Sing, and are confident that<br />

there will be even greater<br />

participation and keener competition<br />

on succeeding observances.<br />

OH! THOSE<br />

FINALS<br />

By John<br />

Hicks<br />

Final exams are just around<br />

the corner. Very soon <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College students will<br />

be walking around the campus<br />

inaudibly reciting facts to<br />

themselves; conferring with<br />

each other on what this or<br />

that professor might ask; and<br />

running to the bookstore for<br />

outline books, to the lounge<br />

for coffee, or to the library<br />

for that last minute research.<br />

The administration has its<br />

work before finals. The tremendous<br />

task of making possible<br />

over one hundred twohour<br />

exams in a five day period,<br />

with no conflicts for students,<br />

is not envied by this<br />

math major student. Add<br />

to this an effort by the administration<br />

to have no student<br />

taking three exams in a single<br />

day and the task becomes<br />

more complicated. However,<br />

this year a new type of problem<br />

is facing our office workers.<br />

About forty male students<br />

have accepted jobs for<br />

the summer with International<br />

Harvester in Fort Wayne. The<br />

jobs pay well and the school<br />

is happy for each job holder.<br />

The problem is that the last<br />

day of final examinations is<br />

the first day of work for the<br />

new employees. Only at a<br />

school like <strong>Huntington</strong> College<br />

would the attempt be made to<br />

have these job holders' finals<br />

finished a day earlier.<br />

The faculty members work<br />

before, during, and after exams.<br />

The tests must be assembled,<br />

printed, and checked<br />

for errors. The teachers will<br />

he in the rooms at all times<br />

while the tests are being taken<br />

and, at the same time, they<br />

are expected to have the exams<br />

graded as soon as possible<br />

so that the grades can<br />

be posted. This grading is<br />

far more time consuming than<br />

the students can imagine.<br />

Finals week is an exacting<br />

time for all, but only the student<br />

has the opportunity to<br />

lighten his work. Talking<br />

with a senior student, who<br />

wishes to remain anonymous,<br />

I heard the same "square"<br />

story I had heard in high<br />

school. This advice to help<br />

the student face the inquisition<br />

calmly and without panic<br />

has been stated over and over<br />

to each student.<br />

Senior X could not see why<br />

so many students procrastinate<br />

until the week before finals<br />

and then go to pieces worrying<br />

about them. "I never<br />

study right before a final,"<br />

he said laughingly "because it<br />

is impossible to study sixteen<br />

weeks of work in one single<br />

week. Let's face it, if a student<br />

has been negligent, the<br />

going will be a rough one."<br />

The method may cause some<br />

speculation in the minds of<br />

some of our groups at <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College, but Senior X's<br />

study habits have put him on<br />

the honor roll. Commenting<br />

further about planned study,<br />

Senior X stated that students<br />

should not drug themselves<br />

with preparation such as No-<br />

Doze, but should get a good<br />

night's sleep instead. It is a<br />

well-known fact that stimulants<br />

make a person keyed up<br />

and tense, while sleep makes<br />

one alert and refreshed.<br />

Soon the crucial time of the<br />

year for most students will<br />

become history once again. The<br />

grades will separate the victorious<br />

ones from the losers—the<br />

happy faces from the grim expressions.<br />

Resolutions will be<br />

made to follow a plan similar<br />

to Senior X's good study habits,<br />

but when finals come<br />

again, there will be the everpresent<br />

losers because time<br />

Hendrickson<br />

Appointed<br />

evaporated before the effective<br />

study plan was ever started.<br />

Don Hendrickson, <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College sophomore, and<br />

former president of the H. C.<br />

Young Republican's Club, has<br />

recently appointed Treasurer<br />

of the Indiana Young Republicans<br />

Club by the Senior Republican<br />

State Central Committee.<br />

Don will serve on the Ex¬<br />

ecutive Board which is made<br />

up of all the Indiana College<br />

and <strong>University</strong> presidents and<br />

officers of the Indiana Young<br />

Republican's Club. He will also<br />

serve on the Executive Council,<br />

which will set up the programs<br />

for the individual Y. R. C.<br />

chapters on Indiana college<br />

campuses. Don and the State<br />

president will also be in charge<br />

of the conventions and all<br />

financial matters.<br />

YMCA<br />

Rounds Out<br />

Year's Activities<br />

The annual "Y" Retreat was<br />

held at Camp Mack, Milford,<br />

Indiana, Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 19. The<br />

day's activities included a<br />

variety of sports: volley ball,<br />

soft ball, canoeing, and many<br />

others. Everyone had a chance<br />

to try his cooking skills a¬<br />

round a campfire at the evening<br />

meal. To make the day<br />

complete there were three<br />

devotional periods, the last<br />

period being a vesper service.<br />

The special speakers were<br />

Reverends Homer Price and<br />

Marvin Price from San Diego,<br />

California, and Rev. Russell<br />

Hamer of Lakewood, California.<br />

For an occasion less active,<br />

but still enjoyable, the YWCA<br />

members, women professors<br />

and professors' wives attended<br />

the "Y" Tea held in the faculty<br />

lounge of the library Sunday,<br />

<strong>May</strong> 20. The program<br />

featured installation of officers<br />

elected at the <strong>May</strong> 7 monthly<br />

meeting. Next year's officers<br />

are: President, Sharon<br />

Weisman from Van Wert, Ohio;<br />

Vice President, Nondace Campbell,<br />

Hillsdale, Michigan;<br />

Secretary, Pat Cook, <strong>Huntington</strong>,<br />

Indiana; and Treasurer,<br />

Lois Griffin, Toledo, Ohio.<br />

Congratulations to these new<br />

leaders of the YWCA.<br />

East - West Zero<br />

Reviewed<br />

East - West - Zero by Werner<br />

Keller, a German, was a<br />

best seller in Germany, but it<br />

has never reached that height<br />

of popularity in the United<br />

States. Prof. Robert Paine<br />

reviewed the book for the last<br />

Coffee Hour of the school year<br />

Monday night at <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

College Library. The book appeared<br />

in England under the<br />

title Are Russians 10 Feet<br />

Tall? Mr. Keller in his book<br />

of Russian history says that<br />

the Russian people are Khrushchev's<br />

major problem.<br />

If we consider Russia as the<br />

East, the rest of the world is<br />

the West. Keller's thesis is<br />

that Russia has not contributed<br />

anything original to western<br />

civilization. From 860 to <strong>1962</strong><br />

all the great improvements<br />

and contributions which Russia<br />

had came to her by way of<br />

foreigners - chiefly from western<br />

Europe.<br />

According to Werner Keller<br />

we need not fear Russia. However,<br />

other students of history<br />

fear that they may copy from<br />

us and then attack us by using<br />

our own tactics.<br />

Foresters<br />

Claim First<br />

Track Victory<br />

On a day that was overcast<br />

and gloomy, <strong>Huntington</strong> College<br />

scored its first track victory<br />

in school history. Warsaw<br />

was the place where the Foresters<br />

outpointed their Mid-<br />

Central conference rivals on<br />

<strong>May</strong> 12. Grace, Indiana Tech,<br />

Concordia, and the help of<br />

outsider Goshen could not<br />

match the boys from College<br />

Park.<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> scored 77½<br />

points to the 70 points for<br />

Grace. In two previous meets<br />

the Grace team beat <strong>Huntington</strong>.<br />

Goshen came in third with<br />

66 points, Concordia had 27<br />

and Indiana Tech had only<br />

<strong>25</strong>½ points.<br />

Rollo Williams, undefeated<br />

so far this year, won both<br />

hurdle races. His time of 15.4<br />

seconds in the 120 yard low<br />

hurdle race was a new record<br />

for <strong>Huntington</strong> College. Garl<br />

Wetters of <strong>Huntington</strong> picked<br />

up a blue ribbon in the shot<br />

put and John Hicks won the<br />

high jump. The <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

team won the meet on the<br />

strength of the seconds and<br />

thirds that were awarded it. In<br />

sixteen events <strong>Huntington</strong> took<br />

five firsts, five seconds, four<br />

thirds, and four fourths.<br />

Both relays were won by<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong>. The 20 points<br />

gained there made the difference<br />

in the final score.<br />

ISEA<br />

Convention<br />

On Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 5, Dr.<br />

Lange, Pam Gamble, and Sharon<br />

Cox attended the Indiana<br />

Student Education Association<br />

Convention at Ball State Teachers'<br />

College.<br />

After registration, a business<br />

session, consisting of the election<br />

of new officers, was held.<br />

Those present were then dismissed<br />

to attend various discussion<br />

groups.<br />

Following lunch, Mr. Ewald<br />

Turner, NEA president, was<br />

guest speaker. He presented<br />

three responsibilities teachers<br />

have: to know, to tell and to<br />

do.<br />

The installation of ISEA and<br />

IFTA officers followed.<br />

Steve Smith Heads<br />

Young<br />

Republicans<br />

The Young Republicans Club<br />

held a meeting on Thursday,<br />

<strong>May</strong> 3, at 7:30 p.m.<br />

The business consisted of<br />

the election of officers for the<br />

coming year. Those elected<br />

were: Steve Smith, president;<br />

John Holloway, vice president,<br />

Norma Deemer, recording<br />

secretary, Nancy Altman, corresponding<br />

secretary; Larry<br />

McIntyre, treasurer; Naomi<br />

Wolfe, program chairman;<br />

Sharon Cox, publicity chairman;<br />

and Judy Griffin, membership<br />

chairman.<br />

Nancy Altman gave a report<br />

of the Midwest Confederation<br />

Convention held at Indianapolis<br />

on April 13 and 14.<br />

The new president adjourned<br />

the meeting.<br />

Baseball Statistics<br />

How's That Again?<br />

At a recent meeting of the<br />

Freshman Class, Roger Skinner<br />

was elected president for<br />

the coming year. To serve<br />

with him the group named<br />

Roger Skinner as vice president.<br />

After that, they all<br />

went off and soaked their<br />

heads for a while.<br />

After careful consideration<br />

of the problem (the existence<br />

of which some kind soul pointed<br />

out), they decided that it<br />

might be well to name another<br />

vice president, just in case<br />

both president and vice president,<br />

were (or should that be<br />

was?) absent from their (his)<br />

official duties.<br />

Now you've got us confused!<br />

Do let us know how it all<br />

turns out, won't you?<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong>,<br />

Indiana<br />

Ph. 189<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> Humbles Taylor<br />

Thursday, <strong>May</strong> 17, will be<br />

a day long remembered by<br />

Forrester baseball coach Ray<br />

Zimmerman. That was the<br />

day he and his team invaded<br />

Upland, Indiana, to challenge<br />

the highly touted Taylor Trojans.<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> took an early<br />

2 - 0 advantage, but Taylor<br />

took the lead with a big 4-run<br />

fourth inning and held it until<br />

the top of the eighth when<br />

Sophomore second - baseman<br />

Dick Moyer doubled home the<br />

tying and winning runs. Gene<br />

Benner and winning pitcher<br />

Bob Andrews had walked to<br />

open the eighth and Jim Stonebraker<br />

advanced them with a<br />

sacrifice before Moyer's big<br />

Foresters<br />

Chop Down<br />

Manchester<br />

The baseball season got off<br />

to a roaring start as the Foresters<br />

chopped down Manchester<br />

College in both ends of a twinbill.<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> scored 3<br />

runs in the first inning and<br />

led all the way in the first<br />

game that ended 10 - 6 in<br />

favor of <strong>Huntington</strong>.<br />

Right-hander Terry McAfee<br />

started on the mound for the<br />

Woodsmen and hurled two<br />

strong innings, allowing no<br />

runs and just two hits. Bob<br />

Hostler and Bob Briggs followed<br />

him on the hill.<br />

Sam Kreigh, Forrester backstop,<br />

led the attack for the<br />

home team with 3 singles.<br />

Shortstop Lowell Smith collected<br />

a triple and a single along<br />

with a base on balls. Gene Benner,<br />

sophomore first socker,<br />

drove in 4 runs with 2 hits and<br />

a sacrifice fly.<br />

Manchester had at least one<br />

base - runner in every inning<br />

but had only one big inning,<br />

the fifth, in which they chased<br />

three men across the plate.<br />

The second game was close<br />

all the way, but <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

held on for a 5 - 4 victory.<br />

Keller started for <strong>Huntington</strong><br />

and Andrews relieved him in<br />

the fourth inning.<br />

blow.<br />

Glen Fahrnow was also a<br />

standout for the Woodsmen<br />

as he notched 4 hits including<br />

a first inning double. Andrews<br />

went the distance on the<br />

mound for <strong>Huntington</strong> and<br />

pitched a fine game, being in<br />

serious trouble only in the<br />

fourth when the Trojans touched<br />

him for five of their nine<br />

hits. He struck out five and<br />

walked three on the way to<br />

his third victory without a<br />

loss.<br />

The win was <strong>Huntington</strong>'s<br />

seventh of the season in nine<br />

games.<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong><br />

Defeats Grace<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong> opened league<br />

play in a big way as they roasted<br />

Grace College at Forest<br />

Glen Park. When the smoke<br />

had cleared, <strong>Huntington</strong> had<br />

won by a score of 20 - 1.<br />

Kreigh, with three singles, and<br />

Smith, with two round - trippers,<br />

led the twelve hit attack<br />

against a porous Grace defense.<br />

Terry McAfee and Mark<br />

Crain on the hill won the second<br />

game of the year for the<br />

Woodsmen. McAfee gave up<br />

Grace's lone run and two hits<br />

in the first four innings, while<br />

Crain held the opposition<br />

scoreless on five hits for the<br />

remainder of the game.<br />

After the first three games,<br />

<strong>Huntington</strong>'s leading hitters<br />

are Benner - .667; Kreigh -<br />

.583; Smith - .455; Mastin -<br />

.445.<br />
