Dedication

The classes of 1946 and 1947 dedicate their issue of the ETONIAN to the former students and ahnniii of Elizabetht(jwn College who died while in ser\ ice for their country.

Almost two hundred former students of our Alma Mater ser\ed in the armed forces and in Civilian Public Service during World War II, and out of this number eleven were called upon to make the supreme sacrifice.

May we not lose faith uilh ihcse who fought Un our nation's a\owed purposes of freedom and dem()crac\ for all. Let us all strive to understand our brothers regardless of race, color or creed and i)uild together "One World."

Foreword

World War II was not the answer to man's age-long plea for world peace, as some people hoped it would be. Minor wars were being fought for freedom from sup- pression in several sections of the world scarcely a month after V-J Day. If anything, the war left the world in a worse state of affairs than it was previous to hostilities.

Again man is struggling with the problem of building a unified world, this time with the horrible threat of atomic energy confronting him. Scientists tell us that we have one of two choices: co-operation or extermination. We cannot remain an iso- lated nation: we must learn to live peaceably with England, Japan, Russia, Germany and the rest of the nations of the world. We must learn that the peoples of these nations have the same aspirations and feelings as we have. Just as the colonies formed into one united nation so must the nations of the world unify into One World.

Empires, nationalistic patriotism, and cut-throat economic competition are as incompatible with Christianity as they are with our vision of One World.

President's

Message

To the Members of the Class of 1946

Greetings :

I was very much pleased when 1 learned that your class had selected (he theme "One World" for your edi- tion of the Etonian. According to my way of thinking, you could not have selected a more appropriate subject.

Wendell Willkie. as a candidate for the presidency of the United States, never really aroused the people of the country until he traveled around the world, talked with prime ministers and kings, teachers, soldiers, factory workers and farmers in all countries. He came back and wrote his great message expressed in two words. "One World." His message was based upon the conviction that everywhere all races, all creeds, all nations were struggling for essentialh the same things in life. He stamped upon the thinking of the world the great ideal that if peace is to be made secure for any one nation anywhere it must be extended to the whole world and to all peoples everywhere.

Nor was Wendell Willkie's message a new one. Jesus urged His disciples to widen their horizons and broaden their outlook. Again and again Jesus tried to interpret His message in terms of the whole world. In His parting message He said to His disciples. "Go ye into all the world . . .'"

The Apostle Paul also stressed the "One World" view when he said. "God has made the world and all things therein . . . and hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on the face of the earth." Professor Conklin of Princeton Uni- versity said. "Biology and the Bible agree that God hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth."

Sir Frederick Banting, the discoverer of insulin, could have been a wealthy man if he had "cashed in " on his discovery by taking advantage of the patent laws. But he refused to do so. He wanted the victims of diabetes everywhere to have the benefit of his remarkable discover), and so he gave it to the whole world.

There is no American chemistry, no English biology, and no Russian medicine. Electricity belongs to the whole world. Christianity is for all mankind everywhere.

"One World" is the Christian ideal. May your goal

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY

One blight da\ in September, nineteen forty-two. the hves of some fifty high school graduates were changed by the new contacts they made. It's strange how matter-of-facth those green freshmen took the transition. Of course there was quite a bit of confusion until they realized that they were part of a group a new group and must take responsibilities in order to reap the rewards waiting for them. The days of dinks and windsor ties seemed quite novel and passed quickly and the class of '46 was put on an equal basis with the upperclassmen. Our first president was Ben Hess.

When the class returned in nineteen forty-three it was to find that the class was definitely reduced in the male section. The draft boards had played havoc with our class enrollment. Of course, athletics suffered with the decrease of men, but Coach found consolation in the girls' team and our class made great contributions to this cause. Guv Buch was elected president of our sophomore class.

In nineteen forty-four we found our numbers decreased again. Many of the girls who came in with the class of 46 were taking two-year courses. It seemed strange to be so few. Regardless of the changes, the Junior Class adapted itself very well and set about performing the tasks required of it. The big event of this year was the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. The class worked hard to have a nice affair and felt repaid when the Seniors seemed to appreciate it. This year our president was Donald Lefever.

Our senior vear finds the group appearing for the last time as the class of '46. We seemed to ha\e worked so hard and long and \el it didn t seem possible that we were about to lea\ e the hill. Although our class has had several additions, the male section is still in the minority. Florence Seaks served as president of the class in our Senior >ear.

We have had our share of college life now and are prepared to leave hoping to be ai)le to create something worth-while in the world. The most we can hope for in the future is to feel that we have been able to do something to help make our world into a united world One World.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY

Has it really been three years since a group of thirty-four new Freshmen rather timidly, but none the less eagerly, began their college careers? Through the be- wildering process of registration, through the parties and get-togethers planned to make us feel at home, through lectures, formal and informal, on how to behave away from home, we plunged. We survived the harrowing experience of the first week of classes. We even began to remember the names of some profs and fellow students.

Say this college life wasn't bad at all! In fact it was fun.

The long-awaited week of Sophomore initiation arrived, and turned out to be much less fearful than expected. In fact, even that was fun! And it was almost sad to part with those dinks and pins when the initiation was over.

Where did that year get to? Late-hour gab sessions, parties in the gym. mid- night oil burned over term papers, cramming for examinations, basketball games, plays, club meetings oh yes, and the little matter of going to classes May came before anyone knew what had happened.

What a thrill to be a Sophomore to be able to tell the new kids where room 286 is and what time breakfast is served. We hoped the Freshmen were impressed with the fact that we were old hands at this. Now we were really a part of campus life. How in the world did we ever think we were busy last year, when there now was much more work and more responsibilities! Our class was well represented in all the campus activities.

The third year, as Juniors, our number was greatly decreased seven of our classmates were two-year students and left to be lab techs. The rest carried on. with even more responsibilities. Several who were originally in our class advanced through summer work. However, we also acquired some new members who started later than we did.

Now with our last year of college approaching fast, we can't help feeling a little sad aljout the end of our school life. Hard work? Yes, college is! But a won- derful experience! Ask any member of the class of '47.

It was in September, 1944. that the majority of our class gazed upon E"town College for the first time. 1 suppose we appeared shv and backward to some of the upperclassmen who smiled understanding!) behind our backs, but despite the fact that we were in a strange environment we soon learned to feel at ease. Par- ticularly so after we knew that everything was fine if we walked the straight and narrow path. Following the initial social activities, we settled into deep concentration.

We became active in sports with Nancy Bucher, Nancy Forney, Audrey Kopp, Joyce Longwell. and Pat Mahaii assisting the women s team. Tossing for the men were Donald Bohrer. Wilbur Graham. Vernon Bricker, George Weiss, and Charles Whitacre. In the latter part of the year seven of our men were called to serve Uncle Sam. Undaunted, we moved forward with Lowell Zuck, president; Esther Straley, vice-president; Joyce Longwell, secretary, and Dick Wenger, treasurer.

According to the signs of the times and the number of credits, we are now Sophomores actively engaged in all phases of campus activ ity. We find that college life is not all work nor all |)lay but a combination of both and wise is the student who learns to appropriate his time!

Our davs at college have been happy days of innneasurable value to each one of us. From washing dishes to holding places of responsibility as officers, from the social life to semester exams, we are living in a world of experiences that determine our future history. We are making historv every day and we, the St)phomore Class, hope that our history will be such that we can proudly look back upon it with satisfaction, knowing that we have contributed our best of bodv. mind, and soul.

FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY

The third week in September fifty students I that's what we'd like to think we are I arrived at college. Some of us were a little scared and homesick too hut we found everyone so friendly and willing to help that we soon forgot our fright and began enjoying ourselves. In spite of the continual downpour of rain, the upper- classmen succeeded in giving us an interesting week's entertainment. The climax came when we were capped at Commencement. From then, we were to wear those patches of felt called dinks and carry our handbooks.

All of us quickly learned to recognize the three maidens farthest from home: Senorita Buena Machuca of Colombia. South America, and the Misses Marjorie Brower of California and Eunice Breshears of Washington state.

With Professor Haubert as our adviser, we soon organized our class and elected officers. Eugene Witmer was chosen president with Maxine Bowman, vice-president: Kathleen Baugher, secretary, and Marjorie Brower. treasurer.

Surviving initiation with all its tribulations, we became full-fledged Freshmen of Elizabethtown College. The "greenies" were beginning to ripen into something worth-while, at last.

This class proudly boasts three outstanding basketball men, Dick Hivner. Frank Keath. and Bob Shiffer. Their splendid playing was a valuable asset to the team.

Everybody has fond and unusual memories of the skating part\ \\hi(li we spon- sored on December 7. Those of us who attended had a grand time. Every time we see a milk truck we remember the mishap of losing a wheel.

Now that we are accustomed to life on the Hill, it is with great pleasure that we look forward to our Sophomore year. As we proceed toward our goal may we be a profitable addition to Elizabethtown College.

One of the best ways to express one"s soul is through singing, and the A Cappella Choir provides such an outlet through the rendition of the sacred concerts which are given the second semester in various churches throughout the brotherhood of Eastern Pennsylvania.

This year's program has as its theme "An Orison for Peace." The members of the choir feel deeply indebted to Professor and Mrs. Meyer for their faithful service to the choir.

The Student Volunteers is the basic religious organization on the campus. To provide a stimulus for those who are pre|)aring themselves for active Christian duty is the purpose of the group.

Eager to uphold the principles for which they stand, the Volunteers carry on an inspiring program throughout the year. Bimonthly meetings have organized the work among the students, and deputation teams were sent out to a majority of the churches in eastern Pennsylvania and several in the southern district of the state. The programs given by these teams were built around Christian living.

High points in this years activities were : Brethren Student Christian Confer- ence held at Manchester College, North Manchester, Indiana, which was well repre- sented by the Elizabethtown Volunteers; and Christian Emphasis Week, held on the campus.

"Miss Lulu Bett'

"Miss Lulu Bett." one of the best performances the club has given on the Hill, was this year's production. It was presented two evenings and was enthusiastically received by both audiences. The club is planning several trips to see professional actors and to get any tips which might prove helpful to them.

Miss Vera Hackman directed the play and deserves the appreciation of the cast for her fine work.

Last year the club presented "Letters to Lucerne" as its annual performance. It was a timely and colorful play with the action taking place in Switzerland. The cast was largely women since men were not very plentiful: however, that did not lessen the splendid performance which the club gave.

Senior Class Prophecy

The year is 1966. We are now deep in the atomic era. Things are not the same. For ex- ample, let us follow Zatae Beetem as she leaves her school teaching for a week end to visit Louise and Merle Black and family who have recently moved to Mars.

As she approaches the ticket window to purchase her ticket on the "Greased Lightning," a rocket ship designed h\ Carl Myers, soon after h? graduated from E. C, she is surprised to find Maxine Straw selling the tickets.

On boarding the ship, she finds "Jonsie" at the controls, assisted by Laushey who is navigator. Edna Schock takes her ticket and makes a very capable conductor. Beetem settles into her seat, and prepares for one of her frequent naps, but just as she is dropping off to sleep she hears a familiar voice singing. "Off We Go Into the Wide Blue Yonder." Upon investigation, she discovers that it is none other than Madame Doolynsky, nee "Flossie" Seaks, the famous Metropolitan Opera star. Jonsie invites Beetem up to explore the mechanism. Just then they pass over Fairview and Jonsie gives her usual signal several beats on the horn.

On returning to her seat, Beetem hears someone calling "Peanuts, popcorn, chewing gum." Yes. you're right, it's Rufus P. Bucher. IL

Now she gazes out the window and her eye catches a glimpse of a huge sign which reads: "Mid- way between Mars and Earth, the Inter-Planet Co-operative Manager. Don Lefever. "

The doctor and nurse are making their usual rounds and Beetem gazes up into the faces of Dr. Verna Brandt and Nurse Mary Heisey.

Putting on her earphones. Beetem catches the last words of a news correspondent, George Althouse. who was broadcasting an E. C. sports review.

Mars is now in view. The rocket has stopped and Beetem alights. Who does she see but "Porky' Leicht who is now a radar operator.

Time has come for afternoon tea and Beetem enters Skyland Plantation. She is greeted by Hostess Sara Gonzalez who leads her to a table next to Ruth Musser, interpreter between Mars and Earth. "Order, please " is heard and Beetem beholds Irene Groff who relates that Tracey is chief cook and Beetem sneaks into the kitchen and has a little chat.

As she returns to her table, the afternoon entertainers begin their performance. Beetem hears the famous duet. Miriam Forney and M\ron Horst. accompanied bv Virginia Baker.

So now Beetem departs in an atomobile to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Black.

Impossible, you say? Well, perhaps. Perhaps even a bit ridiculous, and yet with a new age before us, the advances of the next twenty years must be great. As college Seniors, we don the robe of dignity and responsibility, after this one last fling.

Senior Class Will

We. the Senior Class of the Elizabethtown College of Elizabethtown. Lancaster County, State of Pennsylvania, having reached the conclusion of our college career, being of good judgment and resounding mind, do hereby make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by us at any time heretofore made. We hereby make the following bequests:

To the faculty: We leave them our sympathy for the past four years you endured and our hope that future classes will not bring you so many problems.

To the Junior Class: We leave them a sincere wish that you may have your deserved happi- ness and the satisfaction of a job well done in your Senior year.

To the Sophomores: We leave them courage and a box of vitamins for the road ahead.

To the Freshmen: We leave them the hope that their seemingly endless supply of energy will last until they are Seniors.

To selected members of the remaining classes we bequeath the following:

Virginia Baker leaves her gift of gab to Jean Young.

Irene Groff leaves her piano playing ability to Ruth Cromie.

Mary Heisey leaves her quiet, demure ways to Anna Kepner.

Ruth Musser leaves her gift in modern languages to William Bosserman.

Frances Tracey leaves her wit to Clyde Shallenberger (he needs some new jokes).

Romaine Nissley leaves her sewing ability to Bev Lay.

To all who have not been definitely mentioned in this will, we extend the invitation to take as your own any qualities, abilities, or interests with which vou may have been favorably impressed in some Senior, and may all our bequests bring only happiness and advancement to those who follow us.

As our last official act, we hereby appoint the president of the Junior Class of the Elizabethtown College as Executor of this, our last will and testament.

AVE you enjoyed looking at the family album that your grandmother cherished? Sure you have.

In the years ahead of you, this school annual will probably be handled by future generations with the same kind of chuckles you gave out when you looked at the pictures of grandma as a girl.

Today Grandma's pictures are old fashioned. Yours are modern. In the years to come yours will be old fashioned too, for new techniques in the printing business will make them so.

Having printed Grandma's pictures in the past and yours today, we hope to print those of your children in the future as they graduate from the schools of Pennsylvania.

They cement many lasting friendships. Soon you and your classmates will take different roads, and it may be years before some of you meet again. School days do not last forever and when they are past, memories are kept warm by the photo- graphs of friends and pals of the classroom and campus.

Your chums should have a "personality portrait" of you, and you will prize one of theirs in return. In a year or so, you will be glad you took this means of keeping alive the memories of your school days.

And the home folks will always cherish a portrait of "the turning point" in your life.

This studio is the headquarters for the best photographic work and the doors are open to the students of Elizabethtown College and their friends.

Why not arrange to come to the studio now and have that photograph taken?
