The Tower, Belmont College, 1956-1957

The shadow by my finger cast Divides the Future from the Past. One hour alone is in thy hands, The Now on which the shadow stands. Before it sleeps the unborn hour In darkness and beyond the power. Behind its unrelenting line The vanished hour no longer thine.

1957


A year has passed at Belmont College. It has been a split se nd of history, a passing of a shadow across the sundial. But in terms of a generation, or a lifetime, a year expands and takes form into memories of months, weeks, days, hours and even minutes. The tln has arched its course, the shadow has covered the dial. This has been our time ... Our time of learning Our time of leisure Our time of looking to God.

EDUCATION

They came together as freshmen From everywhere, it seems, They soon will leave the hill as seniors Blessed with learning's brightest beams. They've climbed the hill together And their strength is well nigh spent But at last they stand triumphant And their courage is unbent. Helen, thy beauty to us restore Like those Nicean barks of yore! Play us the fiddle, Answer our riddle, And we'll wish that your years be fourscore.

Many seniors said, "Let's you and me go To find our companionable Sego, For he speaks foreign tongues Deep down from his lungs; 'Tis a wonder he'd not suffer from ego.'

Vic's annua! cannot be surpassed But the deadline it almost went past. He threw in a picture, Upset many a fixture, And mirrored the days that have passed.

Now John as a freshman was president For Robert's Rules he never was hesitant. He married Sherry Then all was merry And we'd like to think him a permanent resident.

Some Coats we carried along, too, And these we never can rue. To us he transferred, Nor was it absurd, To be shocked that this should be true.

She made us an exquisite nurse her medicine just right to disburse She uses the dictionary, As she is our secretary; We hope that Fate will fill full her purse.

L. C. Morris labeled carefully his chair, Nor well could he possibly fare, Unless he could rest While taking his test; Now this loyalty indeed is quite rare.

Eldridge Miller was a very fine fatherIn his record need we qo farther? Other colleges were in the picture; His record was quite a mixture, But he'd choose Belmont if he had his rather.

She turned out the registrar's assistant To injustices she's notably resistant. Her accounts she knows, Her records she shows If the seniors prove ever persistent.

Jim Tibbs was a very fine fellow; Not once was there anything yellow, For he fought at Femagen Without entsagen. His conversations exceptionally mellow.

She played the seven ages of woman, Whether under Mr. Eisenhower or Truman: Though Lady Macbeth be her part, And she act with her perfect art, To the seniors she was never inhuman.

For newspaper work we have a nonimationHe can never be a pet abomination. He knows what's good news And follows all the clues, And he is a credit to the Baptist denomination. Mr Lawhon cou!d elucidate history

Billy Chitwood was ever the scholar, And he scorned never his uncomfortable collar. For he liked his work And would not shirk A task for the price of Mammon's dollar.

He could easily report And always retort, And sometimes his remarks were quite blistery.

A radio system keeps his memory alive He worked on it from eight until five. He donated his stock Under key and a lock, And a better set-up no man can contrive.

nto Wordsmiths he injected new life, And he did so without the least strife, For he proved diplomatic Not psychosomatic, A recommendation to find a good wife.

She went on a long summer mission To Hawaii with greatest contrition. She learned Hula dances Ard appealed to our fancies; She thus proved an invaluable acquisition.

Joyce Middleton could think of a feature On a program to interest a preacher. She planned recreation With quiet contemplation; She's by nature a born public teacher.

She knew Spanish so remarkably well That her professor could easily foretell Her most admirable fate, Unless of course she came late, And she natural!y attained many honors pell-mell,

One of the smartest in dress was Beth Cooper In her clothes she always looked super. She managed to passA bonnie fine lassAr,d we acclaimed her our senior super-duper.

Tl! it ceased to be a great mystery.

For a sense of true beauty there was Callis, Who was sensitive, never quite callous To the good and the true, He was ne'er in a stew Because he cou!d never harbor malice.

A Draper we had for convenience His music to add to our lenience. He has a red head. By it we were led And to him we pay our obedience.

Polly Tankersley does all with efficiency; She hopes there can be no deficiency, Nor any dereliction Nor any real friction, And so she guides us with ample sufficiency.

We cannot forget John Love Murray Who never did get in a hurry He did not object, Nor did he reject If he did he always was sorry.

Electron John Stepped a league ahead When the stunts by the seniors he led. He walked a tight rope, He never gave up hope To win out above all, as he said.

When we stumbled and fell very far, It was Ed K. James that drove up his car And rescued us there Ard gave us the air Lest our records we'd essentially mar.

With the Halls accessible it was hard To lose our way, though the roads were marred By hazards and passes, B obstacles in masses From deviations indeed we were barred.

Bill Rutherford reached into heaven His gaiety was to us leaven; He made the basketball goal; He thrilled to our very own soul. We guess his trophies are now six or seven.

With Betty we deposited our money; From Benjamin we hoped for what's funny, To Jeanette we went To Bill we sent, And our days were always sunny.

A Sadler came along gladly, we guess, But the reason he'd never confess. He did a good job With never a sob To keep us from e'er marked regress.

Music has won his undying support, Whether in bass or in tenor he report. He held some meetings, Nor registered defeatings. With dignity Dean himself will deport,

A minister of qood was DeVasher From the coal he could snatch a rasher. He studied his lessons, Could figure the quintessance. Women's hearts were won by this smasher!

Byrns urged us on in our junior year, As we climbed the hill without a fear. He smiled and he grinned, Whether we climbed or we sinned We say good-bye to him with many a tear.

Morris Frank was good at the Vacation School And taught by the most rigid rule. He quoted many a text. We knew not what was next Ard we dreaded his stinging ferule.

His favorite language was French When he studied he climbed from his trench. Raymond had a wreck On his weekly trek, Ard now we see him adorning the bench.

Donnie Gross was very athletic, And we knew he was a friend sympathetic He made all the qoals Thrilled our very souls. Oh, Donny! you're our select Peripatetic.

If you wish someone who'll never you pester, We suggest very proudly Glenn Hester. He tends to his work, Which he never does shirk. We recommend him even to Pearl Mesta.

We salute James Haralson strong, Who could secretly do no real wrong. He loves his alma mater And to it will cater And some day will compose its great song!

Our companions along the way were the Scotts Who carried basketballs, baseballs, and lots OF entertaining things And many such flings As are absorbing to all senior tots.

James Hooper was good in Psychology And not bad at all in Biology. He practiced his art With a sincere heart, From which he spoke when he expounded theology.

A high honor came to Frank Lee As you gladly on the campus could see. He was elected to this And was never remiss Ir: showing his gratitude with great glee.

George Bass climbed the hill with us too, With his humor he could us undo, But he's a gentleman good For the riqht he has stood, And we know how his goals he'd pursue.

Firm confidence was placed in our medic For he could never be found apathetic. He's a good student Never imprudent, Otherwise how could Vandy make him so ecstatic?

For business we hailed Wallace Craig, If we found we had struck a real snag For he knew the solution Fer any pollution, And he could make something out of a mere rag.

Anna Faye is the most sympathetic. She mourns at situations pathetic. She teaches a school Bv the Golden Rule; She'll devise means entirely synthetic.

James Abston knew well his history. To us it was a remarkable mystery How one senior headS much could be saidKnew how in 1666 the sun was quite blistery!

28


Margaret Ashworth can instruct in the graces, In her papers she rarely erases. When it's done It's in fun Of real error you'll rarely find traces.

James Stewart who minds us of Hollywood Would help us fore'er if he could. He has a reputation That never suffers mutation For he does just the things that he should.

It was interestinq to be able to Locke What we treasured in his great sock, When he made the base, And saved our face, We cheered him for seeing such a rock.

Jerry next year continues to climb, Though it's hard indeed to make a rhyme. He is practical He's mathematical And a historian-he knows why every time.

Ray McCall studied hard his literature, Whether firm or weak be his legible signature. He preached from a text And we never were vexed; So we'll vote him to the state legislature.

Charley Taylor surprises you often And your heart he gladly doth soften, He's good at philosophy And knows theosophy. His children will some day him toughen.

tennis our champion's Bill Neblette, Who was never an obnoxius Reblet. He won every match Our hearts could unlatch As we often inscribed on his tablet.

Wayland Mitchum tells us of Greece, His dramatic talent never will cease. He plays Aristophanes Like a Demosthenes, And our emotions find infinite release.

William James Owen was a follower of Davis And we pied that he often would save us. He always could do it For either mutton or suet, And so we nicknamed him our favorite Mavis.

Bob Mulloy with his music hath charm That will stop all our tears and alarm. He climbs to the seminary And uses their library Though he prefers really Tennessee farms.

Doyle Petty was a minister true And a scholar, friend, and companion too. We dub him our best, Surpassing the rest. Don't you think he'll always have his due?

Virginia Overton soon goes to Texas And there the cowboys she vexes. She praises and pleases And punches and teases Until we forget those miserable income taxes.

There's never been a nicer person than James Ray, About whom only compliments we say. He makes every basket And if you but ask it, He's your friend forever and a day.

Ruth Brown brought along her dear child, Whom we found most mannerly and mild. He played and he pranced And he sang and he danced, And never a single complaint against him was filed.

Our president once was Harold Smith. He presided at every meeting with Such grace, as you see, We all were in glee, And so he created a magical myth.

Jean Brantley we found ere we stopped. Sl·e'd been lost ere the hill had been topped. She's a child to behold, As Joe has us told Wait a minute-in he has popped!

Joe Spencer is famous for his wife, For his diplomacy that ends any strife. She is pretty too, Ard he is so true, You can see how happy's their life.

This journey has been very pleasant And so may it ever be, Though the way has been hard And the future we could not see.

Tc climb is the thing that we need, Though the top be never in siqht. The hill is rewarding and steep Our burdens are neglibly light. -IVAR LOU DUNCAN

The Belmont Vision is the official student newspaper of Belmont College. It is produced by a student staff under the direction of a faculty advisor. t seeks to reflect every phase of the college life plus some community news. This year has been a year of advancement for the Vision. Circulation has risen to eight hundred, and advertising was at an all-time high. The Vision was delivered to merchants in the Hillsboro community and was sent to high schools throughout Middle Tennessee. Copies of each edition were sent also to the alumni of Belmont College. The Vision utilizes the journalism department which offers five quarters of news and religious writing. These courses are used for the writing of material and the production of the paper itself. This means that campus events are adequately covered and that the quality of the Vision material is maintained at a high level.

Y. W. A. The Laura Frances Snow Y.W.A. at Belmont was organized by Miss Snow, a foreign missionary to Chile. The emphasis of Y.W.A. is on home and foreign missions and its membership is open to all Belmont girls who are interested in Christian missions. It functions as both a study group and a service band. The theme song for the Y.W.A. is the old song, "O Zion, Haste."

0 ZION, HASTE 0 Zion, haste, thy mission high fulfilling, To tell to all the world that God is Light; That He who made all nations is not willing One soul should perish, lost in shades of night.

Behold how many thousands still are lying, Bound in the darksome prison-house of sin, With none to tell them of the Saviour's dying, Or of the life He died for them to win. Proclaim to every people, tongue and nation That God in whom they live and move is love: Tell how He stoooped to save His lost creation, And died on earth that man might live above. Give of thy sons to bear the message glorious; Give of thy wealth to speed them on their way; Pour out thy soul for them in prayer victorious; And all thou spendest Jesus will repay. Refrain Published glad tidings, tidings of peace; Tidings of Jesus, Redem ption and release.

"Growth" is the most apt description of the Kappa Delta Sigma Society. The society had its fifth anniversary this year, and its membership has increased five times. This has been one of our best years because of the work each member has done. Our rush party was an important event, followed by the annual hayride. The formal initiation, highlighted by the candlelight service, was one of the more solemn occasions. Slumber parties and week-end parties brought fun, too.
