Meyer, Molt Chosen May Royalty; Coloradoans to Rule the Day
Curtain Up on Play Tonight Sally Meyer will reign over May
Day festivities May 3, with Dick Mott as Prince Consort. Sally and Dick, both students from Colorado, were elected in chapel Friday.
Last Friday's chapel was opened by vice-president of the student body, Janice Bishop, who read the proclamation opening the Poet Laureate contest. Candidates for this year's royal court were then presented to the student body and faculty in chapel. Those seeking the queen's crown were Naomi Martin and Doris Pearson representing the senior class, Sally and Phyllis George of the Junior class. These lovely ladies were backed by the candidates for prince consort: Dick Mott and James Mc-Donnel, seniors, and Bob Willcuts and Jim Ellis, juniors.
The royal candidates gave short

speeches portraying the history of May Day on this campus. They gave a summary of its history here on George Fox's own campus, saying that the first May Day celebration was May 1, 1905. The specific topics were: the origin of the first May Day on this campus, May Day breakfast, May pole winding, baseball game, and music for the queen.
Retherford Here For Revival Week
The Spring revival sponsored by the Student Christian union starts Monday with John Retherford, evangelist. The-services will bo held daily at 10:45 a. m. and 7:30 p. m. in Wood-Mar hall auditorium, and will close with the morning service on Friday, according to John Lyda, president of SCU.
Friday night there will be a student-led praise and prayer service. "This service is being inaugurated this year and will be an opportunity for all who gained spiritual victory to testify to it," explained John. "There will also be an opportunity for prayer and group singing."
"Many individuals and groups are carrying a burden of prayer for the services," he stressed, "for there are those on the campus who do not know Christ as their personal Savior, and there has been spiritual concern for them."
He emphasized that the services are open to all.
Poets to Vie for Laureate Honor
"Hear ye! Hear ye! By royal proclamation the Scribbler's Poet Laureate contest shall be opened to all loyal subjects of Foxdom on the 16th day of March, in the Year of our Lord 19581" announced Janice Bishop, ASGFC vice-president, in chapel last Friday.
The scroll from which she read this proclamation further states that "both students and faculty may enter and there will be winners in both divisions."
It states that "All entries must be inr The Scribbler entry box oh the trophy case by April 11. A student may enter as often as he likes, and the poems may be on any subject."
Sally Meyer, vice-president of Scribblers, said that the poems will be judged by a board of five judges, and no names shall appear on their copies but they shall be numbered.
All poems entered will be printed in the official publication of the organization, which is known as The Scribbler. Prose items will be accepted f&r-the anthology.
Sunday the Scribblers held an open sharing hour in Kanyon hall parlor. There were 15 present, and each person had a poem to share. Such topics as spring, northern lights, toads, and love were used. Tea and cookies were served after
the session.
TAKING LEADING ROLES in tonight and tomorrow nights' drama are Jim EUis, playing the blind Gillean, and Jerri Andrews as Mrs. Iain MacDuall, his mother.
Idaho Canvassed For New Students
Mr. James Bishop, director of public relations, returned Monday from a 10-day trip to Idaho where he contacted 123 prospective students.
Visiting 14 high schools and 4 Friends church groups, he spoke about the college and gave each interested young person literature and a prospective'1 student "card."*
He attended a Christian Endeavor rally sponsored by the Boise Valley and Greenleaf quar-. terly meetings at Caldwell.
"In e v e r y instance," Mr. Bishop said, "there was good interest shown on the part of students."
Prayer Room Furnishings Planned The cabinets of the Student
Christian union, Student Ministerial association, and Foreign Missions fellowship met together recently and agreed to a tentative plan for the altar and seating arrangements of the Paul Oppen-lander Memorial Prayer room, according to John Lyda, president of SCU. v

Speakers Sign to Promote College Forty leading citizens of New-
berg met at the student union lounge Monday evening to form a Speakers' Bureau sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce in the interests of the college. A group of 25 enlisted their suport as speakers.
According to information given the community leaders, the Speakers' Bureau is a "resource group of public-spirited citizens willing to speak before civic groups, telling Newberg the story of George Fox college.
"It will endeavor to present GFC as a community college, willing and able to serve this area. It is to set the stage for New-berg's part in the Debt Liquidation campaign. It looks toward early regional accreditation for

the group would not force its way into organizations, but would await invitations for the presentation of their community-college programs.
Those speakers present a t Fri-# the rug» day night's meeting received a sheet of hints for the individual speaker, and a list of 28 suggested college-community topics.
Members of the college administration, faculty and staff will be available as speakers. College classes, dramas, games, and recitals, too, may be used to stimulate community interest.
The public relations literature, film, and window displays used by the college were placed at the disposal of the Chamber of Commerce.
For other information, the civic speakers were referred to members of the State Board of Higher Education and others in the educational world.
The Chamber' of Commerce committee which is over-seeing the work of the Speakers' Bureau consists of Messrs. Douglas, Dent, Kiohn, Halgien, Cullison, and Dun-ston.
between the marble center piece and the side walls, and parallel to them. Kneelers will be positioned on both sides of the altars.'
The altars will provide facilities for seating," John stressed, "for they will be approximately 12 inches wide, and will be padded and covered for both kneeling and sitting. The arrangement will accommodate 14 to 16 people, and will be the only provisions made for seating in the room."
He emphasized that once the room is completed temporary seating, such as chairs, will not be used in the room.
The design of the altar will be left up to the architect, according to President Ross, but he explained that if it has a wood finish, it will probably be grey to match the other woodwork and

'Gillean' to Show Again Saturday
Tonight and tomorrow night George Fox college drama department presents Gillean, t h i s spring's dramatic production in Wood-Mar auditorium.
Directed by Miss Dilla Tucker, assisted by Marilyn Peck, the drama takes place in a Scottish community. The plot, which is a three-way r o m a n c e , centers around the blind boy musician, Gillean, who sacrifices his life for others.
The play production class is in charge of the staging, make-up and programs. Intermission entertainment for the play will be furnished by a bagpiper.
Admission to the play which is scheduled to begin at 8 p. m. is 75 cents for adults and 50 cents for students.

Iain Macduall, Robert Smith; Dr. James Hamilton, Ralph Hof-stetter; Marget, Marilyn Peck; Gavin Dunbar, Edwin Cammack; Davie Maclvor, Larry Houston; Gillean, Jim Ellis; Jennith, My ma Rourke; Robin, Ron Staples; Hugh Dunbar, Gerald Aebischer; Moira, Jerri Andrews; Rev. Coll Macrae, Paul Morse; Bridesmaids, Romma Gilbert, Cathy Lanham, Evon Aebischer, Barbara Hogsett.
Faculty Prefers Enriching Idea
The faculty and administration are in the process of studying the curriculum, and are considering an academic system of "intensified studies," President Ross said this week.
The faculty recently voted in favor of an enrichment program rather than one of acceleration. This will enable superior student to obtain a fuller comprehension of his subject without being held back by slower students, it was explained.
The facultys choice of an enrichment program is part of a long-range plan to develop the individual student, Dr. Ross pointed out.
The grey carpet will be laid at a cost of $300 and will cover not only the floor but the kneelers also, the president explained.
The altar-seats and the carpet will complete the permanent fixtures of the room. Other components previously agreed upon and partially or completely finished are the 16 foot by six inch stained glass window and the round marble slab in the center of the floor on which the lone spot light shines.
The only non-stationary fixture of the place will be a large Bible

The World is Our Campus By Prof. Mackey W. Hill
The Navy finally came through and succeeded in launching into its orbit an earth satellite. It is called Vanguard I. However, some one suggested that it be called "Shamrock I" since it was launched on St. Patrick's day. Others, more scientifically inclined, suggested that it be called "Beta 1958". It removes forever the stigma from the U. S. Navy of inability to orbit a missile. I ts orbit varies from 400 to 2,500 miles from the earth's surface.
In North African affairs, Tunisian officials have bid for a onion with Morocco as a counter measure against French pressure on the one hand, and Egyptian pressure on the other. There are unresolved tensions between Tunisia and both of these powers that could in time cause a shooting war.
The situation in Indonesia is still veiy much in doubt. Sukarno's government forces succeeded in landing and taking over important oil properties in Sumatra, the chief seat and source of the revolt. The rebels are skilled in guerilla warfare and may be able to hold out for months. There are many Indonesians who are sympathetic with the affairs. In a sense Sukarno is battling for the right to keep Communists in his administration. Should any great amount of military aid be forthcoming from the Communist world it will be proof positive of Conmunist interferences in Indonesian affairs.
Both President Eisenhower and congressional leaders are showing great concern about taking some effective action that will get America out of the recession. The farming states are encouraged a bit.

We Need a Field Day Pertinent People: Blind Teacher Enjoys Ham Radio
Originating in the student council recently is an idea for an afternoon of inter-class competition. The plan is to have a field day early in May. If it materializes, the affair would be a forerunner of the all-year intramural program which the council is considering for next year.
On the class-free afternoon, members of each class would participate in such activities as the 3-leg-ged race, baseball throw, tall story contest, egg-catching contest, relays, high jump, and other field events. A banner would be awarded to the winning class.
Next year, the intramural program between classes would be set-up at the beginning of the year. It would include a ping-pong tournament, tennis, and other sports to continue throughout the year. The spring field day would be the climax of the intramural program and the announcement of the winning class.
At first, the council considered a Monday afternoon, but was rejected by the faculty on account of classes. The council still felt that the plan should not be entirely abandoned because of the healthy class competition which needs to be stimulated.
The reason for the council choosing a day during the week was to include all students who might be going home over the week-end. Later it was discovered that there are few classes scheduled on Friday afternoon in order; to make it possible for students to take a long week-end.
Certain members of the council felt it is probable that most of the students wouldTstay on the campus for such an event if it were held Friday afternoon, May 15.
If the plan is favored in studnt body discussion during chapel today, student representatives next / \ Clean HeOft week will seek faculty approval in the matter.
We urge both students and faculty to consider seriously this competition day on which the student council has been working since last spring.
"Teaching- is my business, but hamming is my recreation" might well be the motto of Professor •Evan Rempel of the mathematics department, who has been an amateur radio operator for over 10 years.
Broadcasting almost nightly with 750 watts of power, the blind professor brings the signals of hams into his equipment-filled room from many places.
Often these signals are from strangers, such as the one he received from a ham in Russia in 1949. With these new contacts the conversations usually stick to "radiological" discussions as to what type of set is being used and the like.
But many signals are from friends, and the conversations often tend to the "homey, over the back fence type.
Mr. Rempel's interest in radio can be traced back to a primary fascination with electricity. When he was in the second or third grade he experimented with coils from old Fords. "They were fun to play with," he said, "because you could shock people with them." He made other electrical gadgets in grade school.
When he was 13 or 14 his family took their vacation at Glacier National park and were there the same time that the Waterman-Glacier Amateur Radio Hamfest was being held.
He was invited to some meetings, and got to talk over a walkie talkie, the most powerful sender that amateurs could use during the war.
From that time he started work-
"Create in Me
'id r"-"-'-
I Rise to a Point of Order Order is a God-created phenomenon. Without
some semblance of order in the world, most men would loose their senses. Indeed many do succumb annually to the buffets of chaotic society because they have no order to sustain themselves. They simply become victims of circumstances rather than moving the checkers of their own lives.
As nearly as man can understand, the world was created in an orderly manner. The orbits of the universe operate like clock-work. The laws of science are constantly consistent. How then is it that there is so much confusion in the world? Is it not the failure of men—failure to adopt a cooperative plan based on mutual faith? Isn't it a lack of a common means of communication?
The method which many throughout the world have found effective in conducting business in an orderly fashion is parliamentary procedure. An understanding of the rules of this method by all who are participating, however, is essential to its use. It is the expressed opinion of many that we need more of this in our student body meetings.

By Dave Cox "In the beginning God created
the heaven and earth," Genesis 1:1. As we read this opening verse in t h e Bible we often pass it quickly, not stopping to realize its true meaning.
Our human, finite minds cannot comprehend a time when there was no beginning. We often forget that God has no beginning and has no ending. In this first verse of the Bible, the word "beginning" refers to the forming of our world. This was the time when our earth and the solar system to which it belongs began to take form.
In order to bring these worlds into being, God created them, and at this point we stop to find the real meaning of the word "create." Webster says to create means to cause something to exist, or to produce something out of nothing. It is hard for us to understand how something could be called into existence out of nothing, but God and only God could perform such a miracle.
Often when we as young people become discouraged and try to work out our own problems, we do not stop to realize that this great God who created the universe is the same God who created you and me. He is our salvation. He is so interested) in our lives that He sent His only begotten Son to die for us.
"Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me," Psalms 51:10.
ing with radio, and in 1946, when he was a senior in high school, he got Iris license and call letters, which are W7KAQ.
He first worked with radio telegraphy which, he explained, is the best for long distance transmitting. With it he got signals from places as far away as New Zealand and Japan.
During these first years in radio Mr. Rempel started collecting call cards, which are acknowledgements from other stations that they have received his signal. "It is a matter of pride," he chuckled, "to have call cards from many places, but after you have been collecting for a few years, you don't bother to ask for them unless they are from such far away places as Afghanistan."
Mr. Rempel became dissatisfied with sending in code, and a few years ago switched to AM broadcasting, and then to single side band, which are radio telephony. "With these," he explained, "you cannot send as far, but there is much more personal contact, although I can reach the Hawaiian Islands quite easily."
Mr. Rempel's closest friends, however, are stations mostly in Oregon. "As there are not many single side band senders in Oregon," he said, "we are a rather close group and get together for hamfests three or four times a year."
Besides being a good hobby, hamming has other advantages. Mr. Rempel received a signal from a station in Torrence, California, last week. He asked the ham to phone, a friend of his living in that city. The ham got the friend
on the local line, made a "phone patch," and Mrs. Rempel talked "person-to-person" with nis friend without paying an outlandish telephone fee. Although hamming is a recreation, it can be a business aid.

President Ross explained that progress toward the completion of the room will be halted until funds earmarked for this are received. 'The reason why the other rooms are completed," he stressed, "is because funds designated for them were received. To date no one has sent money to be used for the completion of the prayer room."
He expressed the hope that the various alumni groups will finance it.

Life From Across the Desk Four George Fox students are
finding themselves on the other side of the teacher's desk this year.
Carol Riggs, sophomore, teaches music every Friday afternoon a t Chehalem Center. She has two half-hour classes- -the first through fourth grades and the fifth through eighth grades.
Her younger class is learning songs and the basic nqtes. The upper grades are learning the fundamentals of music.
Joyce Hester, senior, spends her Mondays and Fridays at Orenco where she, like Carol, teaches music to all eight grades. Between 11:15 and 3:15 she has five classes, totaling approximately 100 students.
Joyce teaches an all-around music curriculum. The children listen to records, as well as learning music fundamentals. She also teaches them about different musical personalities, ranging from Beethoven to Elvis.
Every Thursday Janice Bishop, junior, goes to Willamina, where she has charge of the released-time religious education classes. They are held in the Methodist church and are sponsored by the Willamina Ministerial association. The third graders are studying the Old Testament while the fourth graders are learning about the life of Christ.
Blair Acker, junior, teaches industrial printing every afternoon from 12:30 to 2:30 at St. Paul. He has two classes with nine high school students in each class.
Each of the student teachers
says that he enjoys his work very much, and finds it challenging besides providing good experience and an opportunity to serve.

Spike Wields Wild Words
Crescent Editors See Abby
Crescent staff members Lenore Davis and Phyllis George attended a press conference with Abigal Van Buren at the Oregonian Hostess House auditorium Monday.
Mrs. Van Buren told some 40 college and high school reporters how she writes her famous advice column which appears in 200 newspapers daily.
Dissatisfied with other columns, and having majored in college journalism, she began with the San Francisco Chronicle and became syndicated within two weeks. She took her pen-name Abigail from I Samuel 25-33, "Abigail blessed be they advice;" Van Buren from the President.
Happily married, and the mother of teenagers, the columnist likes to tell people that marriage is forever—that young people who make mistakes should make the best of them.
The Crescent members learned that Mrs. Van Buren, who answers some 7,000 letters weekly, was a staff of legal, ministerial and psychiatrical consultants as well as five secretaries.
By Howard Morse, freshman The old pros of GFC have pro
nounced the baseball diamond dry, and so the rookies have donned their rubber cleats and slogged out to join the men. The usual cries of anguish are heard after a long throw, and most everyone is either complaining about his sore arms or else is just braving the pain.
Speaking of pain, Mr. Mott is said to have gone through considerable such in the year last. So impressed was he with his experience that he put forth a hypothesis on the correct form of fly catching.
His guess is that one should wait to place the glove into receiving position until the ball is at a maximum of three feet from the personel. This may seem an
unnecessary precaution, but it seems that gloves that are held between the ball and the nose have a tendency to leak said sphere through to said organ.
Spring not only brings out the musty mitts and crumpled caps, but also nature's glad expression of warmth in the pungent frag-rence of newly-exploded blooms. Excuse the hyperdramatics, but scholars that most of you are, who know how to read, you are no doubt acquainted with these Utopian phrases which well up from one's very proximal being.
Actually, putting this malarky aside, the only reason that I ever noted the blooming little buds is that several of us must needs gather them and smash the an-thocyanins out of them to preserve them for posterity.

Boy's Bids Bay By Don Chitwood
The crowd sat tensely awaiting the final bid. Who would, win the little white box? Ken Kumasawa and Gil Rinard kept bidding -"$110," "$115," and on up. Neither student would yield his ground. Then the voice of auctioneer Dave Wing pierced the sudden silence. "Going, going, gone! Sold to Ken Kumasawa for $151."
This was $151 in cancelled stamps, of course, for this happened at GFC's box social sponsored by the SOEA last Friday.

Juniors Hold Talent Night
President Ross and Dean Kenneth Williams left behind their academic atmosphere and saturated the air with their humor Saturday night while "emceeing" the junior class talent program "The Ides of March," which was held in Woood-Mar hall auditorium.
Besides having ready comments about the participants, they related the comical part of their recent New York tiip, and President Ross imitated a saladizer salesman.
First on the talent parade were: "Moonglow," "Frauline," "Steel Guitar Rag" and other selections played by the musical group of which Dave Burgess and ' Don Bryant are members.
Judi Retherford gave a comic reading, "Ma Peasley's First Train Ride," and sang "Chocolate Ice Cream Cone" in costume.
Blair Acker showed his log burling ability when he dumped Gordie Martin, who was being held by two people. Paul Morse then joined him in a unicycle and comic song act.
The Smith-Johnson t r i o sang "Never Be Afraid" and a cowboy medley. The program was closed by Gil Rinard, who played "Las-sus Trombone" and "Don't Blame Me" on his trombone.

Bountiful Boxes After a few days of collecting
cancelled stamps the men of George Fox entered the gym with one objective in mind - to win a fair miss and a lunch to go with her. A few of the fellows had poor pickings, however, and found themselves eating chicken sandwiches from the dining hall, and with no miss.
As the students finished their meals, John Davis presented the evening's entertainers. G a r y Brown, Doris Pearson, Betty Cur-ryer, and Jerry Pierce sang "Rock Around Mother Goose." Paul Morse and Gordie Martin presented several novelty numbers. Then the mixed quartet sang "I'm Bound for Heaven," and Dale Campbell completed the evening with a short devotional.
As the crowd left everyone seemed to be happy, even the fellows who filled up on chicken sandwiches.
A further sense of satisfaction prevailed because t h e cancelled stamps are being sent to a Japanese mission which sells them and uses the money to print gospel tracts.

Speech Classes Tell Easter Story
The oral interpretation classes, under the direction of Professor Dilla Tucker, will present an Easter program for the Women's Auxiliary meeting March 28.
The program, which will be held in the Kanyon hall parlor at 2:00 p. m., will be choral readings with an Easter theme.
Advanced interpretation students Sally Christensen and Virginia Powell will introduce the three part program. The first part will be Crucifixion, to be given by a class under the direction of Jack Hoskins. Betty Curryer will lead the second group in the reading of the Resurrection. Both readings will be quoted from passages in the Bible.
The third class, under the leadership of Ned Wheeler, will give a reading about the call and challenge to service of a young man in India.
Interspersed in the afternoon's program will be music by Myrna Rourke on her violin and Bob Brown on his trumpet.
This is the third year that the speech department has done a program such as this, according to Miss Tucker. The first one was a Christmas, and the^ second a Mother's Day, program. The purpose of this year's program is to portray the true meaning of Easter and what it can mean in present day life, it was explained.
The Price of an Honor System By Dean Kenneth Williams
In 1871 the Evanston College for Ladies had a Roll of Honor. Students whose names were on this roll had taken and fulfilled this pledge:
"I promise so to conduct myself that if every other pupil followed my example, our school would need no rules whatever . . ."
DEAN WILLIAMS Frances Willard, early temper
ance leader, was president of that school. She so inspired the students that their conduct required very few rules, indeed.
We at George Fox college are working toward a similar goal. We want self-government of our conduct, on an honor basis. And
Four students p r a y e r Room Dedicated to Oppenlander Attend Contest
Four George Fox college students recently competed in the Linfield Speech Tournament along with 600 other students from 37 colleges. Although t h e y came home with no prizes, coach Dilla Tucker announced that she was proud of GEC's showing in the contest.
Eugene McDonald, junior, and Sally Christensen, sophomore, entered the oratory division for George Fox, Virginia Powell, sophomore, and Kay Johnson, freshman, did oral interpetations. This, iB the first contest of college level which Kay and Eugene have entered.
The Linfield contest was held March 6 and 7 with the finalists competing on the eighth.
Eleven types of speaking contests were open to participants. They included debate, extemper-aneous, interpretation, radio, interview, and oratory.
Freshmen and sophomores competed in the junior division while upperclassmen competed in the senior division. The junior sweepstakes trophy was won by the University of Oreon with Stanford placing second. In the senior contest t h e sweepstakes was awarded to Brigham Young; College of the Pacific and Stanford tied for second. The grand sweepstakes award was won by the University of Oregon; Stanford placed second and Pacific Lutheran, third.
Dilla Tucker said the department is preparing students for other contests later in the spring.
The prayer room in the new student union is dedicated to Paul Marcy Oppenlander, class of '57, who lost his life May 13, 1954, by drowning while at a freshrnan party.
Paul had been very active in college, was much respected by his classmates, and is described as "gifted." The 1954 L'Ami states that "He applied himself to develop those gifts for the fullest possible service to God. His life in every respect exemplified the highest nobility of Christian manhood."
A few of the activities and organizations in which Paul participated at George Fox included the Student Ministerial association, a cappella choir, the student body Easter play, "The Vigil," and GF club. He was treasurer of Singing Men, football and baseball manager, and was selected King of Hearts at the Valentine Formal.
As a memorial to her son, Mrs. Lila Marcy Oppenlander, of West Linn, gave gift funds to the col-Jege. With the funds, books were
purchased for the library including a 13-volume New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge.
Last year, according to President Ross, as plans for the student union were being formulated, members of the class of '57 met unofficially with him to see if a memorial to Paul Oppenlander could be put in the student union. President Ross met with the college board on June 1, 1957, and presented the request for a memorial to them. They approved this plan and appointed President Ross to work out the details with Mrs. Oppenlander. She met with President Ross, and approved the proposal for a memorial prayer room now being furnished.

whenever our practice matches our profession of being mature adults, the college can abolish most of the regulations now in force.
Class attendance has improved since students were put "on their own." But incongruous to many is the existence of voluntary class attendance, on the one hand, and required chapel attendance, on the other.
Students themselves instituted the required attendance at chapel. They did it to rectify the former sparse attendance that became embarrassing to them, particularly at such times as some noted speaker appeared a n d addressed only those few students who were really interested.
When each student so conducts himself with respect to his chapel responsibilities that all who follow his example would need no regulation, the rule itself can be dropped.
To supplant this and other rules by an honor system, not only students but the faculty and administration would have to be consistent in practice as well as profession. Only by all of us working together- can we accomplish our goal!

With weather permitting some outdoor workouts the George Fox Quaker baseballers have begun preparation for the 1958 season, which gets underway next Saturday with a home twin bill with Centralia junior college.
Ten lettermen answered Coach Carl Carpenter's beckon-c a l l , along with some promising newcomers. Seniors Dick Mott, Bill Hopper and John Lyda; juniors Neil Pierson, Gordie Martin, Earl Perisho and Mac Corlett; and sophomores Cordell Tittle, Lyle Wilson and Paul Cammack reported for practice and began immediate preparation for the opener.
At this point, it is difficult to
Quaker Diamonders Start Workouts hazard a guess as to who might
be in the opening line-up, but it is safe to say that a few first-year men will dot the roster.
The -only"regulars back from last year's outfit are Hopper, Mott, MaTtin and Cammack. Hopper, last year's leading sticker, is an out-fielder and a spot pitcher, while Mott is a front line flinger, Martin a first sacker, and Cammack a shortstop. Pierson was not in school last season, but was a two-year regular in the outer gardens before that.
Jack Hoskins was on the varsity in 1957, but didn't play sufficiently to gain a monogram.
Rookies who bear watching include infielders John Roth; How-

Baseball season is staring us right in the eye, but basketball is dying a hard death, with the two state high school meets just over or just finishing, and the NCAA putting the finishing touches on the collegiate season.
Surprising Seattle U. and its super-star,. Elgin Baylor, have vaulted into the national spotlight with an upset win over San Francisco in the regional NCAA meet. They then knocked off a tough Cal quintet to rise into the finals a t Kansas City. In their upset 69-57 triumph
over the Dons, Seattle literally rode on the back of Baylor, who pumped in 35 points and pulled down better than 20 rebounds. To top off his performance, he displayed some nifty feeding and ball-handling tactics that helped keep the USF crew honest B m Hopper
In the final against Cal, which ST7 won 66-62 in an overtime, "Rabbit" scored 26 points, again fed off well, and rebound-
• ed like a demon. If Seattle is to go all the way to the national title, it will first
have to get by strong Kansas State and then knock off the winner of the Kentucky-Temple affair. That's quite an assignment for any ball club.
* * • • * Still on the subject of the cage sport, If Carl Carpenter
can keep the non-graduating varsity members for next year's campaign, watch out for the Quakers in 1958-59. Only Bill Hopper and Dick Mott will be lost via the diploma route and with several good prospects on the mailing lists, the GF men should be the team to beat in the Metro conference.
* * * » * George Fox was the only school in the Northwest to place two
men in the first 10 scorers of the area. Bill Hopper, with 527 points, placed fifth and Ron Willcuts, with 442, was on the number eight rung.
Howard Crow, the 6' 4" center who enrolled a t the semester, was one of the key reasons for the late season Quaker splurge, and came off with a neat 14 point average, which included one two-point contest. In the final of the recent tourney, his rebounding and scoring kept the Quakers in the contest, while Willcuts and Hopper were having bad nights.
* * # * * George Fox opens the baseball slate next Saturday, entertaining
Centralia junior college in a double header. Coach Carpenter will be hard pressed to mold a competent unit in the short time allotted him, but he has some capable ball players and is a more than capable mentor, so we feel the Quakers will give a fairly good account of themselves.

career, averaged 18.2 points per game to lead the team in individual scoring. He set a new season's scoring record of 527 points, breaking his own record of 460, set last year. He upper his career scoring record to 1,731.
Ron Willcuts scored 442 points for the season. Both boys finished in the top 10 collegiate scorers in the Northwest.

Multnomah Bible Wins GF Invitational Tourney
FORWARD BILL HOPPER moves out to check Multnomah player in a tense moment of the final game of the tourney.
Concordia Downs Western for Third The Multnomah Bible cagers,
who were fired to the hilt, turned back the cold GFC Quakers 60-55 to nab the trophy in the first annual GF Invitation tourney which ended March 8.
Not letting any grass grow under their feet, the Multnomah cagers got away to a 19-6 lead in the first minutes of the game, and taking advantage of GF's poor shooting and sub-par ball handling, pulled into a 35-26 halftime score.
Carl Carpenter's chargers came boiling out the second half and pulled into a 41-41 tie, then went ahead 43-41.
From that point the game was
a battle royal, until a rash of. fouls by the GF men provided the free throws to put Multnomah out of reach.
Howard Crow led the local offensive thrust, getting 20 counters, mostly on pretty tip-ins and short jumpers.
Milt Packard, Gary McStay and Wayne Zimmers with 16, 16 and 14 points, respectively, led Multnomah in the point parade.
Concordia took the consolation tilt with a 59-49 conquest of Western Baptist. Dennis Shaffert led the Cavaliers, getting 18 points, and got addeded help from Don Dietz, who posted 15. Bob Hancock led the Baptists, picking up 18 counters.
