Class OfficersThe juniors returned to thecampus conscious that theirwork was half done - thatthe foundation sketchinghad been made, and that it was time tobegin filling in the details on the canvasof their college lives. They picked uptheir pens with more determination,and perhaps with more fear, as well,choosing sharper, more sensitive quillsand brushes. Care and accuracy wereessential at this point.After two years, the backgroundwas set. A major, a group of friends, aclub, a cafeteria, a favorite chapel seat- these had already formed permanentparts of the sketch. Now thejuniors were becoming aware of therole they would play on campus - ofthe mark they would leave on <strong>Harding</strong>.People other than the friends oftheir freshman year began to influencethe juniors' quickly-forming paintings.Junior Class Officers. Front row: Park;back row: Jones, Finley , Williams. - photoby John Radcliffe.Favorite teachers made their marks onthe canvas, with advice, examples, andencouragement. Heavier, more seriousand thoughtful lines began to color thesketch, as old friendships eitherdeepened or faded, and as the futureloomed more immediately ahead -exciting, but sometimes ominous.Far into their major fieldrequirements, the juniors were interestedin what they were learning,and their awareness of their developingspecialization and professionalismstrongly influenced the lines theydrew. They began to look ahead and togrow excited, eager to meet thechallenges that faced them as they feltmore and more competent to succeed.Bold, sweeping, conquering linesreflected this self-assurance, yet,paradoxically, hints of hesitantquestioning colors still existed behindthe flashy painting. Working hard, thejuniors prepared their canvassescarefully for their final year. .l1t- Sherry DanielPatricia Ann Abern - Searcy, ARRobert Alan Abston - liltl~ Rock, ARBernard Seth Adams - Jilmaica, NYCynthia Ann Adams - Germantown, TNMary Beth Aebi - Vin«nt, OHDebra Dee Akin - Washougal, WAKevin Stevenson Akins - Devon, PABlaine Grady Alexander - Delight.

Juniors 21.Cramping from the pain, werested in the starlit, openarea, and struggling toregain composure despitethe unnerving event, collapsed intoside-splitting laughter again.As I looked around from my site ofcollapse, I noticed the moon. The fullcircle, eery-white, illuminated the openarea almost like day in stark contrastto the dark, wooded, overgrown areawe had just fled.I felt fine, here, laughingespecially after that! About six of us,five of the nicest men I know and I,had come out here to experience thenew-found <strong>Harding</strong> adventure.In a scattered rural area, about sixmiles out of Searcy, stands a peacefulcemetery. The front part is clear, wellcared for, and peaceful. But, just pastthe open area's single, tall oak tree,towers a dark, menacing legion oftwisted trees. OUf destination was justFur ball of fearbeyond the bare front line.We slowly approached the smallwinding path that led beyond the treesentinelsto the tombstones which,jutting out of the ground at all angles,dated back as far as 1857. Walkingpast the now-green, weather-beatenmarkers which rested against the sidesof trees which they had watched growup from saplings, our group grewtighter and tighter. Just ahead waitedthe fenced plot which marked the endof our adventure. So far, so good.In the middle of the plot, guardingall the smaller stones, loomed a tallspire-like marker. Huddled in themidst of five upperclass males, I feltsafe enough to suggest we read thatmarker in particular.One of the braver men of the groupopened the rusty old gate; it squeakedin protest and, I thought, warning. Wecontinued on. Just as we approachedthe old, guardian stone, lined with age,a twig broke - behind the stone! Wefroze. .-The night fell strangely silent. Westood motionless . We listened. Just aswe were about to relax, the flashlightdimmed. It brightened. It dimmed. Itwent dark. Another twig broke. Theorganism of which I was the nucleusbegan to move backwards. There wasa bump against the side of the group. Afrightened gasp broke the silence.Suddenly the organism divided andscattered. I grabbed a hand at random.I ran.Branches slapped my face. Rootsgrabbed my feet. The hand drug metoward the opening in the dark maze.As we burst through the edge of thedark terror, I glanced back.Scampering after us came a tonguelolling,furry, little puppy.

Again this year, Skotiaplayed an important role inpromoting understandingbetween blacks and whiteson campus. The club, which derived itsname from the Greek word fordarkness, was begun two years ago tohelp educate students about blackculture and black contributions toAmerican society. It was also designedas a support group for blacks whomight feel isolated on <strong>Harding</strong>'s mainlywhite campus.The brain child of Richard King andShiela (Harper) Allen, a formerstudent, the club grew mainly out ofthe observance of Black HistoryMonth, which was designated asFebruary. Skotia has helped organizeand support a program which bringsblack lecturers to <strong>Harding</strong>. In pastyears this has included suchdistinguished speakers as Alex Haley,Marva Collins, and Eldridge Cleaver.This year students heard fromClarence Pendleton, a leader in civilrights. "I think it's very important forpeople to take pride in who they are,"said King (who is co-sponsor of theclub along with Paul Pollard), "andblacks have made a lot of importantcontributions to American society."Through the lectures, King hopes thatstudents will realize this and be proudof their rich heritage. Besides 'aspeaker, the club also has organized asinging group which shares some of themusical traditions of black AmericansThis group, named the "CelestialSingers," takes part in the program andhas become an institution in its ownright.The main goal of Skotia, though,was to provide fellowship and socialcontact for blacks as well as whites. Ithas sponsored meals, parties, andother activities, including a hayridethis year. It hopes to educate all<strong>Harding</strong> students about what blacksreally are; to eradicate stereotypingthrough increased knowledge, contact,and awareness. Also, it wants to showthat a ll people, regardless of skincolor, have the same needs, wants andhopes. It was opened to all interestedstudents and was not at all a "blacksonly" club. 'W e don't just sit aroundand talk about 'black' things and whatit's like to be black," said King, hintingthat if they did, Paul Pollard - whiteco-sponsor of the club, would feel leftout. Instead, they discuss pertinentsocial issues which affect all students,as well as any day-to-day problemswhich arose.While it was met with some hostilityin the past both from on campus andoff, it seems that Skotia has finallybeen given some of the acceptance andrecognition it deserved. 'There aresome things we're trying really hard toforget about," said King speaking ofthe earlier incidents. "People arealways opposed to what they don'tunderstand . . . but the administrationhas continued to be very helpful andsupportive, and we appreciate that."Skotia, now' firmly established,looks toward the future. Ithoped that through it, some ofthe longstanding walls which haveexisted between blacks and whiteswould be broken down. King evenventured to look farther than that. "Ilook forward to the day," he said,"when there won't be any need forspecial clubs. When the whole story istold, both black and white can appreciateeach other's contributions."But until that day is realized, Skotiacontinued to help us to see that aboveaU, we are brothers. 1Jlt- Sherry DanielAoyd Timothy Hicks - l-o ..... ling Green.

"~I 've been lookingforward to this for a longtime ... Now it looks asthough ererything's comingtogether. "- Bill RyanUniting families around the worldThisyear <strong>Harding</strong> expandedboth its assets and itsopportunities with theacquisition of a ' short-waveradio. The set, located in the MissionsPreparation Lab in the basement of theBible building, was used in a numberof ways. With it for instance, studentsand faculty members were able to talkto missionaries who had been licensedto operate short-wave systems. Thisprovided for the exchange of currentnews, as well as a "link with home" formany in foreign lands.The main body of the equipment,which included two receivers, twotransmitters, and a low frequencyamplifier, was donated by Mrs.Carroll Leonard, the mother of aformer student. To this, $1,500 wasadded by the Ezell Foundation andvarious congregations so that theschool could purchase an antenna anda linear amplifier. The amplifierboosted the power of the set to the1,000 watts necessary for global range.The station was dedicated at theraising of the antenna on January 11.The project was also seen as acommunity service. In the case of anAntenna. Bill Ryan leads the way by constructingthe antenna for the short waveradio. With this radio, foreign studentscould talk to family members and studentscould talk to other students who were awayat HUF. - photo by P.R. Office.emergency, the set could be used as alink to information which wouldotherwise have been inaccessible. Itcould also be used to contactauthorities if other forms of communicationhad been incapacitated.The set was available to all interestedstudents and faculty throughthe HAM Club. The club, which wascomposed of both licensed operatorsand those "just learning," organizedclasses and set up times when the radiocould be used. The classes met twohours a week for roughly ten weeks,and ,-taught students the threerequirements for FCC licensing: Morsecode, electronic theory, and FCCregulations. There students alsolearned how to operate the systeIpwhich was given the call sign ofK3RDX-Portable 5.Dr. William Ryan, under whoselicense the set is authorized, said thatthe concept of a short-wave facilityhad been discussed by the administrationfor some time. Unfortunately,neither enough interestnor enough money was available to getthe operation established. With thedonation of equipment, however, theother obstacles were overcome rathereasily. 'Tve been looking forward tothis for a long time ... Ever since I gothere," he said . 'Now it looks likeeverything's coming together." 1llt- Bill RankinKaren Ashley Keeth - Crossett.

A foregoing fad"Giveme friedchicken;" "Black is back; ""Go for it; " "Make myday; " were just a few of theslogans across campus.A button is worth a thousand words. Wornon everythillg from blue jean jackets tofish ing hats, buttons swept the campus il11986. - photo by Jerry Traughber.Almost every student oncampus" would have to bethe answer to the question,"Button, button, who's gotthe button?" during the 1985-86 schoolyear. Button-mania hit the studentbody with unprecidented impact aswearing buttons spread over the nationas a means of self-expression."Make Your Own Button Day,"sponsored by the Student Association,freed students from the dictates ofcommercial button manufacturers, andlet them, for a mere 50 cent fee, saywhatever they chose to say to theworld.Button messages were as varied asthe individuals who created and worethem. Of course, the ever-popular "Ilove (heart) " (Fill in the blank) styledominated the scene, especially whenthese buttons were made available tosocial clubs in mass quantities byFindley-Traughber, Inc.The average student wore only onebutton or maybe two at a time. Otherswent all out, presenting impressiveassorttl)ents of many and variedsayings. Jay Lockhart, a prominentbutton connoisseur, gave his reasonfor wearing buttons: "It lets you expressyour feelings without actuallyhaving to say what you feel." (Perhapshis reasoning is made much clearerwhen you consider the flavor of hisparticular expressions. "Don't tell mewhat kind of day to have," and 'Tmnot deaf, I'm ignoring you" are onlythe beginning.)Other buttons communicated morepositive messages, such as, ''I'msomeone special,""Be a friend," andeven scripture quotations.

"~V au meet people Inother clubs - It breaks downthe club barriers. "- Jamie Knapp On the ballRich Weaver, Jamie Knapp,David Stevens and MarkHolderbaum were paid todo what they loved -watching ball games. As assistants toCecil Beck, the director of intramuralsports, these four students supervisedgames almost every night of the week,during all seasons.According to Knapp, the assistantsjobs included getting the games startedon time, keeping track of intramuralequipment, making sure the playingareas were in order, and keeping score.'We kind of run the show at night," hesaid, though Beck was in charge of theactual scheduling of the games.Intramural Assistants. Front row; Weaver,Knapp; back row: Stevens, Holderbaum.- photo by Janet Lawver.The assistants were in the workstudyprogram, but their job was morespecialized than most. Beck handpickedhis assistants based on theirbackground and knowledge of sports.The job was time-consuming. On anaverage night, each assistant wouldsupervise about three games, andperhaps four or five on Saturdays.Knapp found that having his eveningsfull helped him to organize his time,however, and did not believe that itinterf~red much with his studies.Self-discipline and money were twobenefits of the job, according toKnapp, but he stated that the greatestbenefit was in getting to know themany people involved in the program."Y ou meet people in other clubs - itbreaks down the club barriers," hesaid._ Sherry DanielKelly Layne Samuel - Roge~vi1le, MOJay Douglas Sanders - Cedar Vale, K5Michael Gregory Sansom - Pensacola, FLMichael Kyle Savage .

As the courseworkgrew tougher and more demanding,the desire to savor every free momentalso grew, and priorities seemed toshuffle and refocus. Somehow, suddenly,an hour in a swing with a goodfriend seemed more important thansleep, or study, or anything else. Andso geqtly, neatly, the seniors sketchedon their own a nd on one another'ssketches - line of excellence.

Netter ranks nationallyAthletic, intelligent andtalented, Kim Wilkinsmanaged successfully tojuggle her academic life andher position on the Lady Bisonsbasketball team, proving herself to beone of <strong>Harding</strong>'s outstanding scholarathletes.Kim began playing basketball in thefifth grade, and later played for herhigh school and for North ArkansasCommunity College, until she transferredto <strong>Harding</strong> at the beginning ofher junior year.At <strong>Harding</strong> she was not only anexcellent forward post for the team,but also found time to obtain a B.A. inoffice systems. '1 usually try to studyin the afternoons and when I get in atnight, when we don't have ball games.That's about all I can do," she said.She admitted that basketball interferedsomewhat with her studies. "Ithink maybe if I didn't have basketballthroughout the year I might do a littlebetter," she explained. "But I didn', dothat bad, so I don't worry about it."Kim appreciated the Lady Bisons,but saw room for improvement. "Ithink that our team in general is youngand still learning," she said. 'We'vestill got a lot to accomplish - we're farfrom being a good team. That couldchange. But right now we're stillgrowing. I think we can have a goodteam in the fu ture."She thought that more schoolsupport would greatly benefit girls'basketball. She stated, "It's kind ofdepressing when the guys play first,and then we play, and everyone getsup and leaves." She added, "If youwin, people want to come and watchyou. If you lose, they're more apt tostay at home."Although she majored in a businessfield, Kim did not want to leave sportsout of her life. 'Tve thought aboutgetting a minor in P.E.," she said. 'Tmscared I'm going to miss sports, andthat's why I think I'd enjoy getting aP.E. degree and trying to coach some."Concerning her immediate plansafter her graduation in May, shestated, 'Til probably look for abusiness-type job, and if I decide that Iwant to do some coaching, I'll go backto school and get a degree in that."llIt- Sherry DanielIiIthink that our teamis young and still learning.We've still got a lot to accomplish." - Kim WilkinsAll the right moves.

In 1985 he was voted <strong>Harding</strong>'sMost Valuable Player andBatting Champ. He also was named tothe All-AIC team and the NAIA All­Area V team. He received the NAIADistrict 17 Co-Player of the Yearaward, and to top off an outstandingyear, Thompson received NAIA All­American Honorable Mention.Humility is as much a part ofThompson as ability is. When askedabout his titles and records, he had tothink for several moments. He knew helet 'er rip. Stmior Greg Thompson from Decatur,Illinois, prepares for all upcomillg double-headerheld the school record 'for RBI's, butafter that he finally gave up and said hejust didn't know what his awards were.W ith his im pressive ability,Thompson could have gone to .otherschools with more scholarship money,'but I thought I'd be happier here thanat a state school ... and I'm glad Icame here."Thompson has managed to find timefor activities other than baseball, too.He is a member of TNT social club andis beau for his sister club, Zeta Rho."Baseball has limited me sometimes,but I have a pretty active social life ...I do most of everything -exceptsleep. That's one thing I don't get muchof!" Thompson is also active in the BigBrothers program.Thompson viewed his involvementin baseball as only a part of a greaterdestiny in life, that of serving andreaching out to others to share Christ.'Tm glad I came to <strong>Harding</strong> to play ...Baseball is another good way to meetpeople that you can reach out to -people who wouldn't be reachedotherwise." lllt - Sheila Underwoodlawrence David Cole - Searcy, AR.

He flashesyour identification card and yourealize you've just been eliminated.Better luck next time.The <strong>Harding</strong> Invitational TerminationTournament, better knownas H.LT.T., is a new, action-packedgame for thrill seekers at <strong>Harding</strong>.Prospective, survival-orientedstudents were sent invitations throughcampus mail from an unknownconnection, alias the Rose. Theoriginal 20 began the game in mid­January as a sort of trial run, beforeexpanding and including many morestudents.The select group of people met indisguise for ID photos, instructionsand weapon dispensing. Several dayslater, each member received a targetassignment through campus mail, andthe game had begun.The object of H.LT.T., besides funand excitement, is to eliminate theother participants, one at a time, byshooting your target with a rubber dartfrom a regulation gun. Once you haveshot your target, you exchange IDcards, and stalk your new assignmentuntil there are only two left. After theensuing shoot-out, the sole survivor isthe victor, and the game begins again.Never fear, rules do govern theaction of the game. Strike zones areabove the waist, except for the faceand hands.

-Goodbye to YesterdayLike a great flock of birds wefloated out of the Benson inour billowing caps andgowns, and my eyes stungin the hot May sunshine. At least, Iblamed it on the sun. Standing ontiptoes, I strained to see over the headsof those who surrounded me inalphabetical order - strained to findthe six special and familiar headsamong the swarm of generic caps andtassles.Only two hours earlier we haddressed together, all seven of us in oneroom. We seven friends. We had puton the heavy, musty black gowns andpiled on someone's bed for a picture -all of us laughing and being silly, andready to kill the first one who wouldsuddenly become sober-faced andbegin to say, 'Tm really going to missyou . .." No time for that. Our heartswere too full , like brimming cups. Onedrop, one lopsided, half-sad smile orone quick hand squeeze would send allthat bottled, excited sadness sloshingover the rim. So we were rough witheach other, pushing, tickling, makingfun, but lovingly handling the wornjokes as we mouthed them perhaps forthe last time.I had looked at each one of you inturn, there as we were getting dressed,and had had a hard time keeping upthe facade - laughing with the rest ofyou. I couldn't stop remembering thoselate nights at the end of last semester,when we were all delirious from lack ofsleep, and "borrowed" a residentassistant's key to steal someone'sprized shower thongs, and stood onchairs to rearrange the Christmasdecorations in Stephens lobby. I hadlooked at you six, and seen your facesaround a table at Mazzio's - ourMonday night tradition.I wanted to be excited aboutgraduation, the summer, a job. Butthere in that dorm room I had onlybeen sad because we'd never again getto fight about whether or not to changecafeterias en masse, or what to do on aFriday night, or whose turn it was tosit on whose lap, since we all had tosquash into one car.You six. You had been such anenormous part of my life here; andafter today you would be just a bunchof fond memories and funny stories totell my children. After today youwould be six parts of me, scattered allover America; six parts that, whentorn away, would leave me bleedinginternally, I knew.So as we streamed out of the Bensonin alphabetical order, I hopped up anddown trying to find your six individualyet, somehow, corporate heads. Onlytwo hours earlier we were laughingand touching, but suddenly I felttrapped in a plastic bubble, alreadymiles and miles away from you. Panicmade my pulses pound until I glimpsedyou, clustered on the steps. Mumblingapologies, I pushed my way rudelythrough the flock of gowns until Itumbled into your circle and stoodthere: panti~g and relieved.We were serious then. It was over.OUT parents hovered in thebackground, anxious to get us packedup and on the road. Assorted kidbrothers and sisters fluttered aroundthe perifery of our circle, but we barelynoticed. My eyes stung - not from thesun. We didn't say much, till one ofyou made a stupid joke - one we'dtold each other thousands of times, tillit had lost all humor except by connotation.Funny I that joke never mademe cry before. 1l!I:- Sherry DanielJohn Paul Goodspeed ~ Pine Bluff, AR .Alison Gore - Texarkana, AR.

<strong>Harding</strong> Hunters: Back to nature, 'Hunting? I'm sure," shesaid. "You're getting upat four a.m. on a Saturdayto stand in freezingwater all morning just to kill ducks?Why would you want to do that?" Theavid hunters of <strong>Harding</strong> often hearreactions like this as they sit in thecafeteria talking about their upcominghunting trips, and they ususally answerwith something like, "Well , I don'tknow why, I just like it." That is aboutthe most definite reason that <strong>Harding</strong>hunters will give you for leaving theirbooks and worries and heading out tothe flooded White River to do someduck hunting or going west of Searcyto look for deer. But if you went withthem some morning you might find outon your own that hunting means muchmore to them than just killing a duckor a deer.I think there is something in thewoods that draws these guys out oftheir beds and into their coldcamouflage coveralls before the sunhas even thought about coming up.You can sense their excitement as theyleave the warm dorm. As the skybegins to glow orange through the baretrees in the east and the chilly airsteams your breath, you begin to feel alink with the hunters and trappers thatroamed these Arkansas forests yearsago. You feel the spirit of real rawhidemen like Natty Bumppo anq DavyCrockett, men who blazed trailsthrough unknown woods and ate onlyas well as they could shoot.And as you watch the first deer glidethrough the thicket or the ducks flyingin a "V" over your head, yesterday'Schapel program and next week's termpaper seem far away. You feel closer toGod's creation; you sense His designand power. Unlike the painter orbackpacker who try to observe Naturefrom a distance and remove thepresence of man, you are there as ahunter, as an active participant inGod's chain of dominion and a respectfulmaster of the lesser creatures. Youtherefore come away from the huntwith a renewed confidence in God andman's place in His universe.I guess that's the reason thesestudents keep hunting. It comes downto the emotions they feel while hunting:the feeling of being in nature andbeing involved in it. 1llI:- Brent Baldwin, ,,,/'I au come away fromthe hunt with a renewed confidencein God ...

"Tm glad that I was able tohelp the team, because that was alwaysmy first priority."Help the team he did! During his twoyears of competition, Quinn recorded242 tackles, including 140 solo stopsand set a school record of 23'1,quarterback sacks. He stopped 13runners for 27 lost yards, recoveredfive fumbles and blocked a kick.Also, in addition to the nationalrecognition, Quinn was selected to theAll-NAIA District 17 and All­Arkansas Intercollegiate Conferencefirst team units, was named NAIADistrict 17 Player of the Week twiceand selected Player of the Week by theArkansas Democrat. Five times duringthe 10-game schedule Quinn earnedBison Defensive Player of the Weekhonors for his outstanding play.'ll's a really big honor to have beenchosen All-AIC and All-District.Those are the kind of things you canusually only dream about," Quinnsaid. "So you just hope and pray andgo out and play your hardest."Harold Horton, head coach of thetwo-time NAIA national co-champion<strong>University</strong> of Central Arkansas team,had words of praise for Quinn, whorecorded 12 solo tackles against hisoffense while fighting a lower backinjury."Dump was the premier downlineman in our league this year. He's asuperb player who couldn't be blockedin a one-an-one situation," Hortonsaid.The hard-nosed, yet low-keyed,competitor, who will graduate with abusiness degree in December, 1986,after using up his eligibility, will besorely missed on the <strong>Harding</strong> defensivefront.''No doubt about it.

When 1came to <strong>Harding</strong> I wasn't sure what Icould do, but people gave me a chance,and 1 can do a lot!" Many of us did nothave the chance to get to know ChipJohnson personally while he was at<strong>Harding</strong>, but we all knew the familiarsound of his three-wheeler zoomingdown the sidewalks rarely without afriend on the back. Chip was born withcerebral palsy, an incurable anddebilitating disease. He came to<strong>Harding</strong> in the fall of 1980; not verysure of himself or his abilities butgraduated in May with a wealth ofknowledge, self-confidence, and excitementabout the future.According to Chip, most of hissupport and growth came through hisclose relationships with the guys inTNT. 'They really believed in me. 1played flag football, softball, and evenvolleyball with the club."His closest friend, Donnie Carey,who also graduated in May, not onlywas a great help to Chip, but was alsoa real spiritual support. 'We've reallyhelped each other grow closer to God,"said Chip. 'We always kept each otherin check. Donnie is one of the greatestfriends I've ever had." Donnie andFriendship factorChip were practically inseparable at<strong>Harding</strong>, and they're making plans tofind a job in the same city and roomtogether in the fall.Campaigns Northwest have played alarge part in his spiritual developmentat <strong>Harding</strong>. '1 never thought 1 couldeven go on a campaign. It was scary totry, but after the first time 1 knew 1would do it again." Not only did he goback twice more, but he even becamethe campaign leader!Reaching out to others was toppriority in Chip's life. He hoped hisdouble major in special and elementaryeducation would help him share hissuccess with countless children afflictedwith cerebral palsy and manyother diseases. He hoped to work inLouisiana, but was not sure yet whereGod would lead him. "Sharing Christis the most important thing to me," hesaid. "I really want to be active withkids in church work, and someday," hepaused and laughed, "1 really want tocome back and be a TNT sponsor."<strong>Harding</strong> will miss both Chip andDonnie, zooming ar~und on thatthree-wheeler together. 'Tve learned alot about myself in the past six years,"he smiled and sighed, "'but 1 know thatGod will help me share what I'velearned with many others."' 1lll:- Laura DanielGoal setter.

"TAT -V Vhatever we do, we dotogether. If I'm raking leavesor painting the house, she'sright there in the middle of ithelping me. "- Roger RedSay Cheese. Roger Red, a studio photographerfrom Little Rock, snaps a shot of Jamie Nanneyfrom Bel/s, TN. , while taking class pictures for thePetH Jean. - photo by John Radcliffe.Portrait of Service<strong>Harding</strong> kids are not averagecollege students.They're special; they'redifferent, and you justcan't find another college like <strong>Harding</strong>."Does that sound like a member ofthe admissions staff? Or an administratorpromoting his school?Actually it was said by Roger Red, aman whose name may not befamiliar to many students, but whosework with <strong>Harding</strong> is one of the mostwidespread services rendered tostudents.Roger Red and his wife, Mary, arethe couple who make the portraits forthe Petit Jean and have been doingthem for years. Ben Red Studios ofLittle Rock began doing business with<strong>Harding</strong> in 1954, when the entireprocess was handled by Roger's father,Ben Red.Roger himself began working withhis father before that time. "I wasgoofing off at what is now UALR,majoring in campusology and notreally getting anything dorie," he said,"and one day it hit me that I waswasting my time going to school whenI had a spot in my dad's business if I'djust jump in and take it." So he did,and he's been a part of the businessever since.The older Mr. Red died of cancer inJanuary of 1982. This was when Marycame into the picture. She had retiredfrom 31 years at Westinghouse, Incorporated,where she had attained atop position. Said Roger, 'Well, I wasstuck now with all this work. And Idecided if my wife was smart enoughto handle her job at Westinghouse, shecould learn how to handle a camera."So the lessons began, and Mary Redbecame a partner.But, Roger pointed out, shewould've learned how to do it eventually,anyway, simply because"w hatever we do, we do together. IfI'm raking leaves or painting thehouse, she's right there in the middle ofit helping me. That's just the kind ofwife she is."They do indeed do a lot of thingstogether. They own a 26-foot trailer -the same one they live in while they areat <strong>Harding</strong> for the two weeks ofportrait-making - and travel as muchas possible. 'We like to get out and seethings; that's the way you learn aboutso many things." 1l!I:- -Sheila UnderwoodFrank Jeffery Sholey - Memphis, TN. Computer science.

Senior Ai Bates from NashvilleTN., pulls ahead early in the Ale competition . ....:...photo by 10"" Radcliffe. ."~I want to do the best Ican in my training."Al Bates.242 SeniorsGoals reached through dedicationAl Bates became a runneralmost by accident, goingout for track in ninth gradebecause he didn't want toplay baseball. Before long, though, herealized that running would be morethan just a pastime for him."Gradually I started becoming prettydecent at it," he said. "In eleventhgrade I saw I could possibly obtain acollege scholarship, so I started puttinga lot more effort into it."His efforts paid off. Bates was offeredseveral generous scholarships tovarious schools, but he chose to cometo <strong>Harding</strong> because he wanted to go toa Christian school. and because he wasimpressed with <strong>Harding</strong>'s academicprogram. An accounting major, Batesstated, " I liked the accountingprogram, and I really liked the campusand the coach."Maintaining a consistently highgrade point average was a challengefor Bates. "It's a full time job runningtrack and cross-country," he said."You're up in the morning at 6:00running five miles, and you have to bein bed at 10:30 so you can wake up."In addition to his morning runs,Bates spent three hours in the afternoonsrunning distances, doingspeed work, and lifting weights. Thisleft him little time for studies or sociallife, but he learned to make good use ofhis free time during the day and in theevenings. 'Tm at the library at 7:00o'clock and stay there until it closes,"he said. "I try to get in some good,quality time - I'm usually hiddenaway upstairs somewhere."Although he made good grades,Bates admitted that his runningsometimes detracted from his academicsubjects. '1t takes away from the gradepoint average - that's definitely a bigproblem, because with cross-countryI'm gone about every other week."The team took long trips to 51.Louis, Mississippi,' and evenWisconsin, and, as Bates pointed out,'1t's impossible to study on the busbecause you have six or seven jamboxes going at one time ."Bates didn't grudge the time hedevoted to running, however. ''I'mreally competitive, especially in track,"he said. '1 want to do the best I can inmy training."Because he was so highly selfmotivated,Bates' workouts were moreindividualized than were most of theteam's. He explai~ed , 'Tm really independentabout my running. I set outwhat I want to run a month in advance."He added, "Right now I'm justpushing myself."Although he planned to work in theaccounting field, Bates wanted tocontinue with running, possiblythrough community work. 'Td like toget involved in a summer program,helping the kids run," he said.Bates did not simply run to fulfil ascholarship; he believed that the sportwas a significant part of his education."By running I think I've made myself amore well-rounded individual." hestated. '1 can relate to people inathletics and academics. I don't have a4.0, but I think I have other qualitieswhich could make up for that." 1lIt- Sherry Daniel

Seniors 24Committment name of the gameWhen Kenny Collins came to<strong>Harding</strong>, he thought it wasgoing to be difficult tojuggle his basketball, hisstudies and his girlfriend back home,but after a couple of semesters helearned how to balance them in a waythat has brought him success in allthree areas. By making it one of hisgoals to be well-rounded, Collins madea comfortable place for himself in thegym, the classroom, and the NewMarried Student Apartments.Kenny began playing basketball inValley Springs, a town which supportedhim in his college basketballcareer through the sports page and thesports fans. Kenny's basketball career,a full 13 years, brough t him severalawards and honors, includingAcademic All-American and All-AlCfor last year; however, one of thehonors that Collins also mentionedwas representing <strong>Harding</strong> and thepeople of Searcy in the best light thathe could. While he considered thisprivilege, Collins remarked, 'Tm surethat the people of Searcy are lookingforward to turning to the sports pagewithout seeing my picture." Collinsstarted as a Bison forward all four ofhis years at <strong>Harding</strong>, and scored morethan 1500 points.Academically, Collins was also ahigh scorer, maintaining nearly a 3.5 inundergraduate work at <strong>Harding</strong> as abiology major. Kenny faced severalchallenging classes and late nights ofstudy, which had to be strategicallyscheduled around late nights ofbasketball. He completed his undergraduatework in the scheduledeight semesters.As for that girlfriend back home,who became Melissa Parker Collins,she graduated as a three-yearsenior after completing her elementaryeducation teaching block this spring.Melissa managed her time, too, so thatshe could attend Kenny's games andmaintain a 3.5 CPA. Kenny admittedthat "time and management gets easierafter marriage because you reexamineyour priorities and see the responsibilityof supporting a family."Exhibiting leadership qualities on thecourt, in the classroom and at home,Collins seemed to find success in hisability to participate as part of a team.Illt- Carla CrouchGoing for the gold.

<strong>Harding</strong> offered mastersdegrees in two areas: educationand accounting. Thegraduate program in educationwas the larger and older of thetwo, and not only included <strong>Harding</strong>graduates, but many practicingteachers returning for post-graduatework. Because of the large number ofteachers in the program, many of thegraduate-level classes were held in theevenings.Lorene Pagcaliwagan, a graduate ofthe education masters program, saidthat she enjoyed the program's format,in which the graduate students takemany classes together with theundergrads. "It's well-blended," shesaid. "You don't feel conspicuous."Although the graduate andundergraduate classes were often combined,students working on theirmasters were generally required to doan extra paper, project, or class presentationto earn graduate credit. Independentstudies in research also formed avital part of the curriculum. "They'remore challenging than in a regularclassroom setting," noted graduate stu-Striving for higher educationdent Brent Alexander.The two-year old accountinggraduate program was cond,-!cted onsimilar lines, with the graduatestudents sharing many undergraduateclasses, but also having several strictlygraduate courses. "It's kind of informal,"said graduate accounting studentLinda Benton. "You've got a chance toexpress your opinions and what youknow. It's more discussion-oriented."Jayne Knapp, another accountingstudent in the masters program, gavethe program rave reviews. ''I'm basicallyvery satisfied with the courses," shesaid. "I like the atmosphere in agraduate class - there's mOTe discussion,more back and forth between thestudents and the instructors. There ismOTe work, obviously, in a graduateprogram, but you have a chance to domore research on your own, if you'reinterested in that kind of thing, which Ithink you should be in a graduate program.I find it very rewarding."Knapp agreed with Benton in enjoyingthe graduate format. "Usually theclasses are smaller with just thegraduate students, and I like that."She added, ''I'm very glad I stayed. Istudy a lot more, but I do like it, and Ifeel much more prepared to go out intothe business world."Not all of the graduate students,however, were involved in either of thegraduate programs. Some studentswere able to take classes in their fieldfor graduate credit, which would betransferable to another school later.Eddie Madden, one such student, enjoyedhis graduate-level courses. "Thegrad courses I'm taking are definitelyworthwhile," -he said. ''The classes inEnglish are ones an undergraduate cantake, but there's enough extra work fora graduate student that makes themworthwhile." And he added, "It's niceto have the interaction of theundergrads."For graduates of <strong>Harding</strong>, the advantagesof doing post-graduate workhere were obvious. ''They stress Christianprinciples here," said Benton."You really need that out in the workingworld. I don't want to be aYuppie." 1111:- Sherry DanielAnna Karen Kroencke - Gr~nfitJd , INFranklin D.

A greater Biblical understanding and trainingThe most intensivecurriculum and strenuousprogram at <strong>Harding</strong> wasnot a regular degteeprogram,but was the School ofBiblical Studies. T his two-yearprogram was designed "to meet anobvious need to furnish an intensivepractical training program in learningto preach," according to L. V. Pfeifer,director of the program.The school. which stressed Biblicalknowledge and practical field experience,was designed to train men tobe preachers. Most of the 48 studentsthis year were married businessmenwho decided to quit their careers toenter the ministry. Since these studentsneeded to finish school quickly forfinancial reasons, th e four-yearcurriculum was compressed into twoyears. The students took classes 12months per year, with a three weekbreak in August. "It's a very concentrated,fast-moving program - avery tough program," said Pfeifer .Because of the strict, serious natureof the program, potential students hadto meet high standards to be admittedinto the school. These standa rds includedreading, psychological andphysical exams, a personal interview,recommendations, and a high schooldiploma. The enrollment was alsorestricted to 80 students each.In addition to a heavy curriculum,students were required to be activelyinvolved with a nearby congregation,to participate in a domestic campaigneach year and in a foreign campaign atleast once.Classes were held separately from<strong>University</strong> classes, although manycourses required in the school werealso offered in the <strong>University</strong>. Classesmet four days a week, and the studentshad four 90-minute classes in successioneach day.Pfeifer noted two main problemsencountered by the students of theschool. First, many had trouble findingsupport. "It's so demanding that theycannot work," he said, "so they haveto be supported." He added, 'Thesecond problem is the pressure andstress that comes with the program."James Grayson, one HSBS student,concurred with Pfeifer's evaluation."My first eight weeks I was ready tohang it up," he said. "But after I learnedhow and when to study, I began tolike the prografu more and more."Grayson was very supportive of theSchool of Biblical Studies. "I think its avery good program," he said. "Before Ibegan I looked around for other programs,and I was convinced that thisprogram was the best. It gives you anindepth study of the Bible, it has a lotof freedom w ithin it, and it has a lot ofbenefits that go along with it."Grayson especially appreciated theplacement benefits offered by theschool. 'They have a good area searchfor jobs," he said.Pfeifer was happy with the results ofthe program. " We're pleased about thesuccess of our men who graduate," hesaid. "A very low percentage do notcontinue preaching. Most do, andbecome very successful." .lllt- Sherry DanielTod Earl Jones · Flo Carson. COJohn George Krivak . Searcy.
