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 />

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 />

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 />

honored at the <strong>Huntington</strong><br />
College Junior-Senior Reception<br />
on Friday, <strong>May</strong> 11th at<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 />

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 />
