Jureumr When these happy hours have hastened into the midnight of our memories, And in more placid pensiveness we pause to ponder. Then, If passing epochs would pilfer the effigy of a friend, If recollection should refuse us the sanctuary of the safer seas, We shall turn to thee, 0 Yearbook, to so lively lend A lantern for our longings and memories sweet to seize. This is the deep desire of the entire staff: that this, the 1960 edition of the Belmont Yearbook, will furnish you many moments of pleasant meditation, during which you will be able to recapture the joys of your college days. Through the written word and the faces of friends, we believe this yearbook can serve its purpose as a fortress to the memory of the days beyond recall.


Little more than a century ago the most brilliant social life in Nashville was found at Belmont, estate of Joseph and Adelicia Acklen. Today known as Acklen Hall, Belmont is the symbol of the old south and gracious living to students of Belmont College. The grounds, which have formed the campuses of three colleges, are still graced by worn statues brought from Venice by the Acklens and are still guarded by the old water tower, used as a lookout by Union Troops during the Civil War.

BY

In 1890 Miss Ida E. Hood and Miss Susan L. Heron established a girls' school, Belmont, in the Acklen mansion. The union of this college with Ward Seminary in 1913 formed Ward-Belmont, a junior college for girls. On February 28, 1951, Ward-Belmont was acquired by Southern Baptists, who added the Arts and Science Department of Cumberland University and founded Belmont College. Under the leadership of Dr. Warren F. Jones, interim president, and Dr. R. Kelly White, who served seven years as first president, development was begun toward a college of accredited senior rank under the direction of the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges.

OF

TOMORROW

Belmont seeks through balanced academic, social, and spiritual life to make a contribution to the leadership of our nation by producing Christian graduates who are able workers in the intellectual and economic world. Standing high on a hill overlooking the city and steeped in academic tradition, Belmont is the perfect place to study, to meditate, and to grow-mentally and spiritually.

Belmont means many things to many people: ... a panorama of the smoke-covered city seen from the hilltop as the sun comes up .. . . . . magnolia blossoms which appear at graduation time ... . . . quaint Italian summer houses covered with wisteria vines heavy with purple flowers and busy honeybees ... . . . dormitory life-call downs--roommates-the thrill of hearing your name called over the intercom for your first college date-bull sessionspractical jokes . . . . . . and parties! The President's Reception, when Acklen shines almost as brilliantly as it did in the days af Adelicia Acklen . . . the Christmas Banquet with the hanging of the green ... the Sweetheart Banquet.

AND PROCEED TOWARD HIGHER PLATEAUS Accreditation-the magic word which meant the fulfillment of all our dreams. At 12: 30 on December 3, 1959, we assembled in the auditorium to hear the Chairman of our Board of Trustees announce: ''It is an honor and privilege to be able to announce on this occasion that Belmont College has been accredited as a four-year, senior institution, by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools." What we had hoped for and hardly dared to expect was a reality. We could only cheer and then say a prayer of gratitude. In the days and weeks which have followed we have come to realize that accreditation was not the end of our work, but merely the beginning. From the pinnacle of rewarded effort we catch a glimpse of the tasks for the future.

Dr. Gabhart has written: "Tomorrow: fascinating, uncertain, inviting, challenging, a day of opportunities as bright as the faith and devotion of mankind and as sure as the promises of God." What does our tomorrow hold? We need no magic crystal ball to tell us part of the storymany more students, a new gymnasium and library, better dormitory facilities, a student center-and maybe one of these days a football team. Our future is in our hands-limited only as our own minds, imagination, and faith are limited.

Beicatiun We cannot hope to repay; we cannot hope even to thank appropriately Dr. Roy A. Helton for the kindness and understanding that he has given so freely to the students of Belmont College. Nor can we hope to evaluate properly the benefits that our College has received through the . tireless efforts of this person. But because we do appreciate so deeply his love, and because we shall cherish his memory so long, we want to say "Thank you" in some small way ... Here is your book, Dr. Helton; our humble dedication to you.

Dr. Gabhart begins his presidency at Belmont College in this our finest year-our year of accreditation. In the short time he has been with us he has gained the faith and respect of the student body. We are assured that under his leadership and by virtue of his guidance we shall continue to grow toward that which God expects of a Christian college.

CHI ALPHA NU

Service with a Smile

"Spirit" is the secret of the Chi Alpha Nu Society, and certainly this spirit has been shown this year as it has overflowed and engulfed the campus to bring us one of our best years. This spirit displayed itself in our slumber parties, hayrides, Christmas party for orphans, Twirp Week and many other activities. Not only has the year been filled with fun and parties, but there also has been work-work to help us realize our goals and purposes which are to develop friendship, to create a wholesome social life for its members, and to uphold the high spiritual ideals of Belmont College. The influences of our society are deep-rooted and far-reaching.

PHILATHIAN

W omanless Wedding

The Philathian Society began a busy year with a successful rush party featuring a womanless wedding. Rush week was highlighted by a picnic with football and softball games. Another memorable event was the hayride with the XAN'S. The Philathian motto is "Clasped hands and pure hearts mold lasting friendships.'' The spirit of this motto was manifested in the co-operative efforts of the society in sponsoring after-game parties and in promoting the spirit of Belmont.

Other parties, including the annual week-end party, were enjoyed by members and friends.

THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT As our National Government is composed of three branches, so is our Student Government. The Executive Council, made up of the President 'and six members, discharges administrative duties in cooperation with the office of the Dean of Students. The Legislative Council, or lawmaking branch, consists of nineteen members. Four associate justices and the Chief Justice compose the Judicial Council which interprets the laws. The Student Government Association forms the link between students and faculty which is necessary in order to maintain such policies as benefit both. Student Government sponsors and organizes activities and projects, coordinates the work of other campus groups, and gives students experience in accepting responsibility.

PEP CLUB

An effort was made to organize a Pep Club this year. A foundation has been laid and leaders of the club hope to have a working organization complete with a pep band by the beginning of the 1960-61 basketball season. It is with the cooperation of the student body that the functions of the group can be carried out. This year has experienced a good start, thanks to those whose aid and interest have brought forth a smooth-running, well organized group which does much to induce greater pride in Belmont. 95

The Studio Players make an effort through creative dramatics to offer to the public their interpretation of the ideas of life. This year the group has presented two major productions and a variety of student-directed one-act plays-and through these media the student plays not only the part of able actor but director and interpreter as well. To me it seems as if when God conceived the world, that was Poetry; He formed and that was Sculpture; He colored it, and that was Painting; He peopled it with living beings, and that was the grand, divine, eternal Drama." -Charlotte Cushman

of their opponents. This type of spirited play led the Rebs to a third place finish in the V.S.A.C. Tournament. By an invitation to the N.A.I.A. Tournament the Blue and Gray faced David Lipscomb, who again proved a thorn in the flesh. Despite this loss the Rebels finished with a creditable 13-11 seasonal record. Leading Belmont were guards Captain James Ringstaff, who made the V.S.A.C. all-tournament team, and Boots Kirby. Lending able support along with Seniors Charlie Fentress, Jerry Vradenburg, and Cliff McClendon was Malcolm Julian, a Junior. Doug McMahon, Louis Robeson, Ronnie Sharer, Irwin Tussey, and Roger Verhoff furnished fine bench strength, a sore spot for Reb teams of the past. Though this team had its ups and downs it certainly proved itself a formidable opponent to all of its competition. This was a team that played together as a team and whose spirit and hustle were a credit to the school. Truly this was a great Belmont basketball team!

In September there were many who believed that the 1960 edition of the Belmont Rebels would be the best the school has fielded in several years. Their faith was justified, for this year's team accomplished what no other Belmont team has done -a second place finish in the VSAC, The Rebs opened the season in December with a second place finish in the Carson-Newman Invitational Tourney. Successive losses to Florence State, David Lipscomb, and Austin Peay were followed by a close win over Bethel. After a loss to U.T.M.B. a win over Union started Belmont on a victory streak that was to extend for six games, quite an accomplishment against tough competition. The streak was ended by David Lipscomb. Losses to Austin Peay and Florence State followed before an earlier defeat was avenged at the expense of U.T.M.B. A loss to Lambuth came before the regular season ended on a happy note with victories over Union and Howard. Proof of the team's potential was shown by the fact that they scored over 100 points a game against four 113


Belmont Takes 3rd Place In Tournament Jerry Vradenburg, making one of his few starts for the Re bs this season, hung up five field goals, Jim Ringstaff four, and Boots Kirby three, along with his jumping-jack rebounding that kept Carson-Newman empty handed. Charlie Fentress scored another three goals and added three straight free throws in the early pull-away. Belmont ran out 37-16 at the half, after which subs played most of the way.

Belmont Blasts Bethel 107 · to 96 Boots Kirby and Jerry Vradenberg came off the Belmont bench to lead the Rebels to a wild 107 to 93 basketball victory over Bethel at the East High gymnasium. Kirby scored 29 points, 15 of them in the first half, when Belmont was forced to fight for its life to stay in contention, and Vradenberg connected for 17. Captain Jimmy Ringstaff took over in the second half, scoring 20 points. He was able to account for only one basket in the initial session. Every point was needed, as Levern Garner, the nation's third leading scorer among small colleges, had a blistering evening, connecting for 38 points, and Paul Newman, a demon on the boards, pushed in 28.

Rebels Clip Lambuth For 6th Straight Belmont College is snowballing along on one of its hottest streaks in the school's basketball history. Monday night the Rebels rolled over Lambuth College, 103-78, picking up their sixth straight win and their seventh in the last eight games. The surging Rebels meet Lipscomb College Thursday night at McQuiddy Gym and it's highly possible the Belmont snowball will be disintegrated. In a December meeting Lipscomb won, 80-70. Against Lambuth the Rebels hit an amazing 48.9 per cent of their shots. Forward Ronnie Sharer, who played his finest game of the season, was the hottest Reb of all. Sharer hit 14 of 19 from the field and finished with 30 points. Captain Jimmy Ringstaff was next with 21. It took a great show of marksmanship by the Rebels to offset the sizzling performances of Lambuth's Bill Henry, brother of former Vanderbilt star Jim Henry.


Rebels Clobber Howard 93-64 Birmingham, Ala.-Belmont College ripped into an inaccurate Howard College basketball team and came away with a one-sided 93-64 victory to even its season record at 5-5. The Rebels posted an 18-point halftime lead behind Charlie Fentress (17) and Jim Ringstaff (10), and the second team played the second half, inflicting even more damage. Louie Robeson, former Cohn High star, canned 15 points in the second frame, hitting seven field goals in 10 tries.

Rebels Rally, Halt UTMB 62-60 In VSAC Belmont College broke a two-game losing string at the expense of the UT Martin Branch Vols, winning a 62 to 60 second-half verdict at East High School. Jerry Vradenburg, who came off the bench to tally 16 points, posted the winning margin with a minute left, after the weststate Vols had tied the score at 58-58, and Boots Kirby put it out of reach at the 40-second mark with two free throws. The Vols missed five free throws, which turned out to be a critical factor in the low-scoring game. Their 17-point guard, Ed Jones, had a bad night, and they were not nearly as sharp a team as when they clipped the Rebels by five points earlier in the season.


Belmont Blasts Win-Starved Birmingham Five Coach George Kelley's Belmont basketball team tasted white meat in the form of win-starved Birmingham Southern and treated itself to an 81 to 60 feast in the East High gymnasium. The Rebels were 6-5 for the season, and had won four in a row. The loss was the 12th for Birmingham, which had won but once. Kelley wasted little time in emptying his bench. His charges zoomed to a 30 to 16 lead with approximately five minutes left in the first half, and he removed all his regulars. For the rest of the game the second string performed, and before it was over Kelley had his 11th and 12th men in the fray. The starters never returned, and there's no way of knowing how many points the red-hot shooting Jimmy Ringstaff might have amassed, had he been allowed to play longer than he did.


Experience Tells In Rebs' Slim Win Over Union, 85-82 caromed off a Belmont player's hands and went out of bounds.

Experience was the difference in Cohn High's gymnasium as Belmont College's basketballers clawed their way to an 85-82 Volunteer State Athletics Conference triumph over Union University.

Union bobbled the throw-in, Belmont grabbed the ball and Boots Kirby drove in for a layup. That gave the Rebs the momentum they needed.

Union rallied from a 34-30 halftime deficit to a 57-50 lead midway in the second half, but couldn't hold it. Belmont fought back to tie the score at 61-61 with eight minutes to play, then took the final lead with only 30 seconds to go on Jim Ringstaff's field goal.

Ringstaff paced the Belmont attack with 21 points, 19 of them in the second half.

Belmont

After working their way to the seven-point lead, Union went into a semi-stall offense. The Bulldogs opened up the area around the free throw lane and drove for the basket only when they had a chance for the cinch twopointer. The strategy worked for a while, but Belmont slowly shaved the advantage, with Ringstaff and Cliff McClendon doing most of the damage. After the Rebs caught up, the lead changed hands intermittently until the final minute of play.

With a well-rounded squad composed of veterans and experienced new-comers, Coach Bobby Bradley is leading the Rebels to the best season in Belmont's history. At press time the team is in excellent position to grab the V.S.A.C. title. This sudden rise in fortune might be attributed to excellent play on the part of a determined and spirited team. Lettermen, Captain Boots Kirby, Co-Captain Carl Bailey, Charlie Fentress, Jess Cabler, Bergen White, Herman Knox, Jim Ringstaff, Tommy Frensley, Federico Odreman, Jim Crowe, Ray Hogan and Don Farrar all returned to form the backbone of the club. Paul McCarter, a transfer student, Ervin Tussey and Bill Hamel were the new-comers who have come through in magnificent style. The new hustle and ability to eliminate the mistakes which had been disastrous in previous years carried the team to four straight wins at the first of the season after dropping the first game of a double-header with Howard College. No matter how the remainder of the season goes this Rebel nine will be remembered as one of the finest of all time.
