"But  what  of  his  work?  Shall  it  end  with  his  death  or  shall  it  continue? 
I  ask  you  the  question.  You  know  it  is  sometimes  said  that  the  youngest 
child  is  the  most  loved  of  all.  Union  College  was  the  last  and  youngest 
of  all  his  works; and  so, we  think  the  dearest  to  his  heart. What  shall  be 
its  history?  Shall  it  be  dear  to  us  because  loved  by  him?  Let  me  answer 
the  question  for  you, for  I  think  I  know  your  minds  in  this  matter. I  say 
no, it  shall  not  die;  it  shall  live  and  shall  continue  to  grow  and  shall 
add  luster  to  his  name."

In  1879,  thirty-five  local  Barbourvillians  purchased  20,000  of  capital  stock  to  provide  funds  for  the 
founding  of  a  college.  This  was  done  at  the  urging  of  Mr.  Abraham  H.  Harritt,  a  school  desk  salesman  and 
Mr.  James  T.  Gibson,  a  local  dry  goods  merchant.  The  formal  opening  was  held  over  Mr.  Gibson's  store, 
now  the  Western  Auto  Associate  Store.  Judge  James  D.  Black,  who  would  later  become  the  College's 
fifth  president  and  a  Kentucky  Governor,  gave  the  opening  address.  It  was  he  who  named  the  college 
"Union"  with  the  hope  that  it  would  serve  as  a  unifying  force  in  the  Barbourville  community,  regardless 
of  religious  or  political  beliefs.  It  was  in  a  room  above  this  store  also  that  the  first  classes  were  held  until  a 
suitable  building  could  be  erected.  In  October  1886,  the  College  became  affiliated  with  the  Kentucky 
Conference  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  through  the  foresight  of  Daniel  Stevenson,  a  well  known 
educator  of  the  period.

The  first  Administration  Building  was  erected  in 
1880.  In  1905  fire  destoyed  this  building  and 
it  was  replaced  by  the  new  Classroom  building. 


The  Classroom  Building?  with  its  gracious  tower, 
was  erected  in  1907.  It  is  now  on  the  National 
Register  of  Historic  Buildings  and  is  undergoing 
extensive  renovation.  This  is  a  strong  contrast 
to  when  the  classes  were  held  in  James  T.  Gib- 
son's store  back  in  1870-1880. 


Domestic  Science  in  the  Chemistry  Lab  as  it  looked  in  the  1910-1915  period. 


Fanny  Speed  of  Louisville, 
Kentucky,  wanted  the  girls 
who  attended  Union  College 
to  live  in  a  warm, home- like 
atmosphere.  With  this  in 
mind,  Speed  Hall  was  built 
in  1905  with  no  expenses 
spared  to  insure  the  girls ' 
comfort.

Pictured  at  the  Centennial  Banquet  is  the  197&  recipients 
of  the  Colonel  Harland  Sanders  Honor  Scholarship. To  Colo- 
nel Sanders  and  many  others,  Union  College  owes  an  im- 
mense debt  of  gratitude. Through  the  scholarships  and  oth- 
er gifts  offered  by  these  wonderful  people, count less  stu- 
dents have  been  able  to  complete  their  education  who 
might  otherwise  have  been  unable  tc>  attend. 


In  preparing  the  Centennial  Section, I  have  discovered  much 
to  be  proud  of  as  a  member  of  the  Union  College  Community. 
The  100  years  history  of  service  of  quality  Christian  Ed- 
ucation is  an  enviable  one.  I  gratefully  acknowledge  the 
help  of  Mr.  Milton  Townsend  for  his  guidance  and  good  will 
and  the  special  help  of  Janet  Rose.

ers' Day  Address  in  the 
Conway  Boatman  Chapel  on 
October  5.  This  well-known 
radio  commentator  received  a

gree preceding  his  address ,-

ceived a  Master  of  Arts  De- 
gree, honoris  causa. 


Sect  i  on  Three

Administration 


Union  College  was  founded  the  year  Albert  Einstein  was  born,  1879.  Both  had  obscure, 
unpretentious  beginnings.  Although  told  as  a  young  student  that  he  would  never  amount  to  anything, 
Einstein  in  his  lifetime  achieved  universal  acclaim  for  his  insights  into  the  nature  of  the  physical  world. 
Because  of  his  stature  as  an  intellectual,  his  voice  was  heard  in  high  places  when  he  spoke  on  social  issues. 

Similarly,  although  Union  is  still  a  small  college  and  is  likely  to  remain  such,  its  humble  beginnings 
and  early  failure  were  hardly  an  obvious  precursor  of  the  college  as  it  is  today.  It  was  founded  by  citizens 
of  a  tiny  Eastern  Kentucky  town  and  the  immediately  surrounding  rural  community  who  were 
determined  to  provide  for  the  educational  needs  of  local  youth.  But  bankruptcy  was  not  far  away  and  the 
college  was  sold  at  public  auction  in  1886.  Immediately,  however,  it  began  a  new  under  the  auspices  of 
what  was  then  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church.  Now,  as  this  is  being  written,  a  group  of  foreign 
graduate  students,  young  educators  on  leave  from  their  positions  in  the  Ministry  of  Education  and  the 
public  schools  of  Liberia,  are  high  over  the  Atlantic  ocean,  flying  back  to  their  African  homeland  after 
earning  Masters  Degrees  at  Union  College.  As  the  college  matured  through  the  years  it  attained 
recognized  academic  stature,  and  grew  in  size  and  scope  to  become  a  respected  institution  with  a 
substantial  graduate  program.  Its  influence  is  now  felt  in  distant  places,  a  role  that  doubtless  far  exceeds 
the  exemplary  vision  of  its  founders. 

Union  College  has  changed  dramatically  through  the  years  in  keeping  with  the  changes  in  the  society 
around  it.  As  it  moves  into  Century  II,  it  does  so  with  a  continuing  commitment  to  academic  quality  and 
community  service,  its  goals  based  on  Christian  principles,  Academic  integrity  and  societal  needs.  Now, 
as  in  the  past,  Union  College  seeks  to  nurture  dedication  to  Christian  ideals  and  sound  learning  from 
which  will  emerge  creative  intellectual  activity  and  spiritual  qualities  that  foster  breadth  of 
understanding  and  the  love  of  all  people.  While  the  commitment  to  academic  quality  remains 
unchanging,  the  academic  program  itself  changes  and  can  be  expected  to  continue  changing.  Thes 
changes  are  a  necessary  response  of  the  college  to  the  expansion  of  human  knowledge  and  the 
modification  of  the  priorities  and  the  needs  of  society.  The  challenge  is  to  effectively  serve  by  making  the 
right  changes  at  the  right  time. 

A  Centennial  celebration  is  a  time  for  reflection  as  well  as  for  anticipation.  We  need  to  ponder  our 
heritage,  giving  thanks  for  the  contributions  of  so  many.  Union's  friends  have  been  legion  and  much 
support  has  been  at  the  level  of  sacrifice.  Others  will  follow  during  the  years  ahead  —  friends, 
benefactors,  and  those  loyal  in  their  labors.  Perhaps  the  greatest  support  of  all  will  be  from  someone  in 
this  Centennial  graduating  class. 

It  is  a  privilege  and  joy  to  salute  the  Centennial  Class.  Many  people  have  worked  hard  to  contribute 
to  the  fulfillment  of  your  educational,  religious,  and  social  needs.  The  faculty  and  staff  are  proud  of  you, 
and  we  hope  you  have  been  pleased  with  us.  All  graduates  and  continuing  students  have  our  very  best 
wishes.  For  my  part,  I  assure  you  that  Union  College  moves  into  Century  II  firmly  committed  to 
continuing  as  a  Christ-directed  enabling  influence  in  the  lives  of  rising  generations.

Philip  Vacanarat  Saywrayne 
March  24, 1936  March  30, 1979 


IN    MEMORIAM 

Phillip  Saywrayne,  a  graduate  student  from  Liberia,  died  on 
March  30,  1979.  Phillip  was  widely  known  throughout  the 
Barbourville  community  and  on -the  Union  College  campus.  He 
was  a  quiet,  friendly  man  who  always  wore  a  smile. 

Phillip  was  the  author  of  Anthology  of  Original  Poems, 
Poetry  and  Speeches,  Folk  Tales  of  Liberia  and  a  manuscript 
entitled  Saywrayne  on  African  Culture. 


People  who  were  touched  even  briefly  by  Phillip  Saywrayne' s 
friendly,  thoughtful  presence  regret  that  he  has  passed  so 
suddenly  from  us.

The  Lighthouse  Singers  are  a  voluntary  group  of  Christian  students  from  various  denominations  who 
visit  churches  and  colleges  to  sing  and  share  their  faith  in  Jesus  Christ. 

This  year,  the  Lighthouse  Singers  were  invited  all  over  the  state  of  Kentucky  to  share  their  lives  with 
others.  They  provided  worship  through  song  for  some  congregation  almost  every  weekend  of  the  school 
year.  A  lot  of  moaning,  groaning  and  complaining  seemed  to  go  on,  but  every  singer  braved  Rev.  Gibson's 
driving,  the  winding  hills  of  Kentucky  and  the  many  self-sacrifices  to  find  new  meaning  in  their  lives.

ORANGE  AND  BLACK 


This  year  the  Orange  and  Black  had  two  editors.  During  the  fall  semester,  Dena  Newman  headed  the 
publication  and  Kathy  Giles  took  over  in  the  spring.  The  Orange  and  Black  provided  students  with 
articles  on  events  happening  in  and  around  the  campus  community.  The  articles  were  written  by  both 
students  and  faculty  members.  Artist  Charlie  Akins  and  photographer  Steve  Rose  added  their  talents  to 
round  off  the  newspaper  material. 


Pi  Upsilon  Beta  had  a  good  year  of  fellowship  and  brotherhood.  Although  this  year  was  a  slow  year  for 
activities,  the  brotherhood  of  the  organization  grew  closer  together  under  the  leadership  of  president 
Rick  Hill,  vice-president  Earl  Grover,  secretary  Arnie  Bradway,  treasurer  Dave  Pease  and  advisor  Larry 
Inkster.  PUB  had  a  small  pledge  class  of  four  in  the  fall  semester,  but  pledges  and  members  all  had  a 
good  time  and  the.size  of  the  fraternity  increased  by  four. 

The  major  spring  activity  was  a  slave  sale  which  raised  money  for  a  few  of  PUB's  favorite  activities, 
PARTIES!  The  end  of  the  year  meant  the  loss  of  four  members  due  to  graduation,  but  the  remaining 
members  wish  their  brothers  luck  and  success  in  future  endeavors.

SIGMA  CHI 


Sigma  Chi  Delta  is  a  social  and  service  organization  open  to  all  girls 
through  a  two  week  pledge  period. The  main  goal  of  the  organization  is  to 
promote  unity  and  sisterhood  within  the  sorority  and  to  spread  that  feel 
-ing  throughout  the  campus  with  their  projects. 

Sigma  Chi  Delta  celebrated  her  first  birthday  this  spring  with  15  mem — 
bers.  The  girls  were  quite  busy  this  year  sponsoring  dances,  bakesales  , 
hot  dog  sales,  and  an  ice  cream  social.  The  girls  also  helped  with  the 
Special  Olympics,  served  at  the  Homecoming  Banquet,  placed  second  in  the 
Centennial  Exhibit  Contest,  had  two  pledge  classes,  held  a  worker-for-a- 
day  sale  and  bought  their  first  jackets. 

This  active  group  was  sponsored  by  Gayna  Akillian  and  Dick  Glasser.

S.N.E.A.  -  Alive  and  WeU  at  Union 
This  year  the  student  National  Education  Association  of  Union  College  participated  in  many  campus 
functions  as  well  as  in  state  association  events. 

On  Campus,  S.N.E.A.  held  monthly  meetings  at  which  speakers  from  on  and  off  campus  discussed  issues 
that  are  facing  the  educators  of  today.  The  organization  also  participated  in  functions  that  had  a  special 
emphasis  on  education  such  as  a  special  chapel  service  for  education  majors  that  was  conducted  by 
S.N.E.A.  And  the  group  helped  host  the  Upper  Cumberland  Valley  Teacher's  Associational  Conference. 
At  Honor's  Day  S.N.E.A.  presented  an  award  to  a  senior  member  that  had  exhibited  a  true  dedication 
toward  education.  Off  campus,  the  Union  College  Chapter  of  S.N.E.A.  participated  in  state  association 
events  such  as  the  Fall  Leadership  Conference,  the  State  Convention,  and  meetings  of  both  the  state 
Executive  Committee  and  the  State  Task  Force  Committee.  All  in  all  S.N.E.A.  at  Union  College  is  alive 
and  well  and  is  expecting  another  great  year  of  activities!

Bringing  back  an  all  but  forgotten  tradition,  Student  Center  Board  sponsored  Snowball  King  and  Queen 
elections  for  the  Snowball  Dance.  Each  campus  organization  was  given  the  opportunity  to  nominate  one 
male  and  one  female  to  represent  them  in  the  court  of  candidates.  The  penny-a-vote  elections  were  held 
the  week  prior  to  the  dance.  When  the  counting  was  complete,  Sigma  Chi  Delta  representatives  Brad 
Thompson  and  Emmy  Taylor  emerged  as  victors.  The  other  candidates  were  Becky  Houghton  and  Aaron 
Works  representing  Phi  Mu  Alpha,  Melissa  Boswell  and  Mike  Brothers  for  Circle  K,  Rita  Bryan  and  Don 
Jones  for  Eta  Pi  Sigma,  and  Dena  Newman  and  Bob  Beck  representing  the  Orange  and  Black. 


MOB 


Mu  Omega  Beta,  sponsored  by  Dr.  Lester  Woody,  is  a  social  fraternity  dedicated  to  life-long  friendship, 
brotherhood  and  service  to  the  community.  The  members  of  MOB  helped  with  the  activities  at  Parents' 
Weekend  and  participated  in  the  Daniel  Boone  Festival.  As  a  money-raising  project  in  order  to  buy  new 
shirts,  and  also  as  a  campus  and  community  service,  MOB  members  sold  ads  which  were  printed  on  desk 
blotters.  The  desk  blotters  were  given  away  throughout  the  campus  and  the  community.  The  members  of 
MOB  also  sponsored  several  parties  and  dances  for  their  fellow  students,  plus  a  few  private  parties! 

Pictured  above  are  Mike  Vizoco,  president,  Den  Rigling,  Bob  Beck,  Secretary,  Dwayne  Peters,  Bob

CIRCLE  K 


A  service  organization  associated  with  the  Kiwanis  Club, 
Circle  K  was  one  of  the  more  active  organizations  on  camp- 
us. Circle  K  sponsored  community-oriented  activities  such 
as  a  Christmas  party  and  Easter  party  for  the  children  of 
the  Pentecostal  Children's  Home  and  a  Walk-a-thon  for 
Cystic  Fibrosis.  They  also  contrbuted  to  campus  enhance- 
ment by  painting  lines  on  the  DAC  parking  lot. 

Circle  K  advisors  Dr. Jan  Finkel  and  Charley  Dibble  help- 
ed the  group  which  was  headed  by  President  Cindy  Ammerman,

The  main  activity  sponsored  by  Playlikers  was  a  night  full  of 
"gambling  and  drink"  called  Monte  Carlo  Night.  No  real  money 
was  used,  but  the  gambler  in  all  of  us  was  brought  out  as  we 
attempted  to  win  as  much  as  possible!  Refreshments  were  de  - 
voured  and  a  disco  dance,  put  on  by  Union's  own  Ron  Harrison 
added  color  to  the  evening. 

The  small  crew  of  workers,  who  were  headed  by  Allan  Green,  had 
almost  more  than  they  could  handle.  However,  at  the  end  of 
the  evening  the  completely  exhausted  crew  had  another  success- 
ful Monte  Carlo  Night  to  their  credit.

FROM  THE  COACHES 
COACH  POOLE: 

The  women's  volleyball  team,  beset  with  youth  and  inexperience,  managed 
only  a  1-10  record  during  the  fall. 

First-year  coach  Anjela  Poole  says  that  "Volleyball  requires  that  the 
six  players  on  the  court  must  know  and  fullfill  their  responsibilities. 
We  lacked  this  ability  because  the  players  are  young  and  have  not  play- 
ed together  before." 

Coach  Poole  was  impressed  with  beginning  players  Teresa  Guth,  Isabelle 
Spriggs , Lori  Rodriguez  and  Sandy  Hall  who  she  said  were  "willing  to  hit 
the  floor  and  get  the  ball. "Senior  Barb  Fleming  was  cited  as  the  team's 
best  spiker  by  Coach  Poole.  She  will  be  the  only  member  of  the  1978-79 
team  not  returning. 

An  experienced  squad  will  return  to  the  volleyball  court  in  the  fall  in 
an  attempt  to  better  last  season's  record. 


Like  the  women's  volleyball  team, the  basketball  team,  also  coached 
by  Aniela  Poole,  is  losing  only  one  senior. That  senior  is  the  same 
one  that  the  volleyball  team  will  be  missing, Barb  Fleming. 
The  1978-79  team  finished  at  8-10  despite  youth  and  inexperience 
Coach  Poole  said  that  the  team  relied  on  quickness  and  excellent 
outside  shooting  to  win  those  eight  games. 

Coach  Poole  added  that  things  look  great  for  next  year  because  of 
the  large  number  of  returning  players  and  the  fact  that  the  new 
players  this  year  responded  well  to  inheriting  leadership  from  the 
veterns. 


COACH   MOORE 


Union  College  basketball  fans  will  have  an  interesting  team  to  watch  next  season  because  the  1978- 
79  squad  lost  no  players  to  graduation.  In  fact,  only  one  player,  Durkee  Davidson,  will  be  a  senior. 

The  last  squad  posted  a  9-19  record  which  Coach  Pete  Moore  felt  could  have  been  improved  upon 
with  better  defense.  "Inexperience  was  the  key  factor  in  the  weakness  of  our  defensive  game,"  he  said. 

Coach  Moore  was  especially  pleased  with  the  Bulldogs'  offensive  output  of  80  points  a  game.  He 
credits  accurate  shooting  as  the  reason  Union  is  such  a  high-scoring  team. 

Overall,  Coach  Moore  feels  that  rebounding  is  where  Union  improved  most  over  the  season.  "We 
began  to  work  together  as  a  team  under  the  boards  as  the  season  progressed,"  he  said. 

Forward  Durkee  Davidson  was  named  a  member  of  the  All-KIAC  team  and  the  All-NAIA  District 
32  team. 

The  Bulldogs  made  a  long  winter  trip  to  Salina,  Kansas,  in  January  to  play  in  the  Marymount- 
McDonald  Classic.  Union  emerged  from  the  round-robin  tourney  with  a  1-2  record. 

Coach  Moore  is  confident  that  the  coming  year  will  be  as  successful  as  possible  with  a  still-young 
team.  "We  must  improve  our  defense  considerably  before  we  will  do  much  better,"  he  says.  "We  should 
begin  the  year  with  more  confidence  since  the  team  has  played  a  full  year  together." 

Coach  Moore  hopes  that  Union  will  be  able  to  dominate  some  games  while  relying  on  the  potent 
offense.  "I  think  we  will  continue  to  score  well  and  I  hope  that  our  rebounding  will  improve  to  where  we 
can  dominate  a  few  teams." 


COACH  BOGGS 


Although  the  tennis  team  had  a  number  of  experienced  players  in  its  ranks,  the  squad  was  not  able  to  win 
a  match  all  year  against  the  tough  competition  in  the  conference  and  in  the  districts.  First-year  coach 
Sharon  Boggs,  a  Barbourville  resident,  took  over  a  team  that  was  counting  on  three  seniors.  Charlie 
Yazell,  Mike  Goss,  and  Ron  Harrison,  one-two-three  on  the  team  respective  were  not  able  to  yield  the 
kind  of  year  expected  of  them.  The  most  successful  of  the  three  was  Yazell,  winning  two  singles  matches 
and  one  doubles  match  over  the  year. 


COACH  RAQUET 


The  internationally  popular  sport  of  soccer  has  been  recognized  as  a  varsity  sport  at  Union  College, 
but  the  school's  players  have  been  practicing  and  playing  patiently  for  quite  a  while  in  anticipation  of  the 
moment. 

Ed  Raquet,  who  worked  for  Union  in  the  computer  science  department  before  leaving  the  campus 
during  the  spring,  coached  the  soccer  team  through  its  last  season  as  a  "club"  sport  in  the  fall.  It  was  the 
best  season  to  date  for  the  Bulldogs,  who  posted  a  2-6-1  won-loss-tie  record. 

Coach  Raquet  noted  that  the  team's  strength  lies  in  determination,  enthusiasm  and  hustle.  "The 
defense  had  periods  of  greatness,"  he  said.  "However,  as  with  most  young  and  inexperienced  teams,  we 
had  trouble  generating  any  offense." 

The  high  point  of  the  season  for  the  Bulldogs  was  a  crafty  2-1  victory  over  Georgetown  that  saw 
Union  put  together  a  strong  defensive  and  offensive  game.  "With  every  game  we  seemed  to  improve  and 
develop  better  ballhandling  skills,"  Coach  Raquet  stated.  "We  were  able  to  put  it  all  together  at 
Georgetown." 

The  Union  squad  is  a  member  of  the  Kentucky  Intercollegiate  Soccer  Association.  At  the  9th 
Annual  KISA  tournament  late  in  the  fall  at  Berea  College,  the  Bulldogs  were  beaten  twice.  The  Western 
Kentucky  Hilltoppers  topped  Union  5-0  in  the  first  round.  The  Cumberland  College  Indians,  victims  of 
the  Bulldogs  earlier  in  the  season,  won  the  consolation  round  over  the  Union  team  3-2. 

All-KISA  fullback  David  Pease  of  Summit,  New  Jersey,  and  All-KISA  halfback  Tom  "J.C."  Lawson 
were  the  strongholds  of  the  team.  Lawson  and  halfback  Ron  Harrison  of  Englishtown,  New  Jersey,  are 
lost  to  the  team  due  to  graduation. 

Fullback  Carl  Castell,  Bloomfield,  Kentucky,  forward  Basaam  Tabeekh,  Tehran,  Iran,  and  halfback 
Andy  Woodward  of  Lexington,  Kentucky,  will  not  be  on  next  year's  team  because  they  are  transferring. 

Coach  Raquet  feels  that  the  prospects  are  good  for  next  year  when  Larry  Inkster,  instructor  of 
physical  education  and  Union's  championship  baseball  team  coach,  will  take  over  the  helm.  Dr.  Judi 
Jennings,  instructor  of  history  at  Union,  organized  the  team  for  practice  games  in  the  spring. 

Coach  Raquet  says  that  special  thanks  should  be  given  Dr.  Jean  Shelton  of  Dallas,  Texas,  the 
founder  and  patron  of  the  team.  Without  her  support,  soccer  could  not  have  existed  as  a  club  sport  on  the 
Union  College  campus.

Five  candidates  were  nominated  for  the  Athlete  of  the  Year  Award  at  the  annual  Union  College 
Sports  Banquet  held  at  Dishman  Springs  Monday,  May  14,  with  Henry  Wayne  Steele,  Lexington, 
winning  the  top  honors. 

Steele  a  member  of  the  Union  College  baseball  team  for  four  years  and  has  had  a  batting  average 
over  300  for  each  season,  Larry  Inkster,  the  baseball  coach,  called  Steele  a  strong  defensive  player  who  in 
the  catcher  position  made  him  a  leader  of  the  team.  The  winner  has  led  the  team  in  hitting  for  two 
consecutive  years. 

The  winner  of  the  Danny  Drinkard  Award  which  is  given  to  the  runner-up  for  the  nomination,  went 
to  Barbara  Fleming  of  Sergeantsville,  N.  J.,  for  her  participation  on  this  year's  volleyball  team.  "A  Union 
College  senior,  Miss  Fleming  was  the  outstanding  spiker  and  most  accurate  server  this  season,"  Anjela 
Kay  Poole,  women's  athletic  coach,  stated. 

The  other  nominees  included  Durkee  Davidson,  Louisville,  Ky.,  who  was  co-captain  of  the  Bulldogs 
this  past  season.  Davidson  was  selected  to  the  ALL-KIAC  team,  the  ALL-NAIA  District  32  team,  and 
was  selected  in  March  to  play  for  the  District  32  team,  and  was  selected  in  March  to  play  for  the  District 
32  All-Stars  against  the  Mexican  National  Team,  in  Berea,  Kentucky.  Sandy  Hale,  Lebanon,  Ohio,  was 
listed  as  the  women's  basketball  nominee.  She  played  as  a  5-6  guard  freshman.  Miss  Poole  called  Miss 
Hale  a  person  "who  can  play  either  guard  or  forward  positions.  The  fifth  nominee  was  Chrrles  Yazeel, 
number  one  tennis  player  from  Paris,  Kentucky.  Yazell  who  is  a  senior,  has  had  four  years  of  varsity 
action  with  the  Union  team. 

Tennis  Coach  Sharon  Boggs  called  Yazell  "a  senior  whose  leadership  qualities  have  been  an 
inspiration  to  the  entire  team.  He  is  a  dedicated  player. 

Union  College  Athletic  Director  Dr.  Pete  Moore  presided  at  the  banquet  with  the  coaches  of  the 
varsity  sports  making  the  presentations.  These  included  Larry  Inkster,  baseball;  Mike  Goss  substituting 
for  Sharon  Boggs  for  tennis;  Anjela  Kay  Poole,  women's  basketball  and  volleyball;  and  Dr.  Pete  Moore, 
basketball.  Miss  Frances  Patridge,  Chairman  of  the  Division  of  Applied  Sciences,  read  the 
recommendations  for  the  top  sports  honor  at  Union  College. 


There  is  a  long  history  of  sports  here  at  Union. 
We  thought  you  would  like  to  look  back  on  some 
of  those  moments  so  we  dug  up  some  old  shots  for 
you  to  look  at.

that  because  he  has  always  been 
the  yearbook  photographer, he  has 
never  had  his  own  picture  in  any

like  to  change  that  by  dedicating

There  are  many  people  who  deserve  credit  for  the  publication

There  are  many  people  who  deserve  credit  for  the  publication 
of  this  1979  Stespean. First  of  all  thanks  go  to  President  Mil- 
ler for  his  support.  Also  thanks  go  to  Mr.  Milt  Townsend  who 
donated  his  time  and  his  files  of  negatives  for  our  use. Thanks 
go  to  Mary  Alice  Lay  for  her  contribution  of  editing  the  Home- 
coming section  and  the  Alumni  Centerfold. Also  Thanks  go  to  Dr. 
Jan  Finkel  for  his  help.  To  our  advisor, Mrs.  Saddler  and  Becky 
Culp. Thanks  go  to  my  assistant  editors, Janet  Rose  and  Steven 
Rose.  The  Section  editors  were, Donna  Dobo  and  Dave  Ditillio  , 
Sports jSherrie  Hurst, Students; Rita  Bryan, Cenntenial  Section  . 
Thanks  go  out  to  all  of  those  who  sold  the  yearbooks  especial- 
ly Pat  Broadbeck.To  my  photographer, who  turned  into  a  dark- 
room technician,  Bob  Malone.  But  I  would  like  to  extend  a  very 
special  thank  you  to  Donna  Dobo  because  she  helped  me  more 
than  any  other  single  person. Thanks  Mom.  One  last  thought,  it 
seems  like  this  staff  is  big. But  however  big  it  seems, we  never 
have  enough  help.  The  editors  of  any  publication  never  have  e- 
nough  help. So  if  the  yearbook  dosen't  seem  good  enough  for  you 
than  get  involved, work  on  the  next  one. 

Steven  Marshall 
P.S.  Thanks  to  Mike  Goss  Editor
