President's Message Ten years ago the Regular Baptists assumed the responsibility of operating Cedarville College. These years have been filled with lessons in the life of faith for, in a small measure at least, the Cedarville College family has learned that we walk by faith, not by sight."(2 Cor. 5:7) During this decade of Divine direction, we have seen Him bring into reality that which many observers said would be impossible. The enrollment has been increased beyond all expectations; new buildings have been erected; the faculty has been increased in number; and new facilities have been provided. It is appropriate at this milestone in our history to give special praise to the One who has made all of this possible. Our God has made "all grace abound toward" us that we"may abound in every good work."(2 Cor. 9:8) We gratefully acknowledge that every accomplishment for good on the Cedarville College campus is due entirely to the undeserved blessing of our God. 13

Dedicated To Ruth Underwood t`. ..for she hath been a helper of many .. ." Rom. 16:2 The recognition and honor that God bestows upon women in the Bible gives credence to and a reminder of the place of women in Christian life and work. Numbered among these is a woman who has exercised well her gifts in her ministry at Cedarville College. Having upon her heart the cares, desires, and spiritual needs of the College and the students, she faithfully carries them to the throne of grace. In her years with us, since 1957,she has become known to many as one of God's most precious prayer-warriors. This former Dayton Sunday school teacher has gone beyond the call of duty in making the mail room the efficient service that it is, and in giving the residence hall the spiritual emphasis because of her faithful guidance. To you, Ruth Underwood, we,the Junior Class, are proud to dedicate the 1963 Miracle. In no better way can we express our appreciation for your tireless, ceaseless efforts, and faithful prayers. 1 9
Cedarville College ... a dream ... a prayer ... a reality. The prayer for a liberal arts college where the Bible is believed and honored as the Word of God was answered in 1953 when Cedarville College became a school approved by the Regular Baptists. The purchase of the college, founded by the Reformed Presbyterians in 1894, was the result of fervent prayer, the realization of a dream. Even today carries on its original purpose through its educational program to prepare Christian young people for service so that their work may be Christ centered and their practice Christ honoring. Not only has the Lord blessed in the gift of Cedarville College but has also allowed for area expansion, building improvement, and a student body increase. Cedarville College ... established in the Word of God...a vivid testimony of what He will do for those who honor His word. History God hath provided: in the past... a beautiful campus of 15 acres, for the present...an added area of 80 acres. in the past... nine buildings for classes and dorms, for the present... a total of fourteen buildings. in the past...a faculty of seven, for the present...thirty-four faculty members. in the past ... a student body of approximately 100, for the present...an enrollment of 454.
II 44,IOW 4. ft Faith Hall (1) completed in 1958, providing dormitory space for women; new campus sidewalks (2) and the "face-lifting" of Bethel Hall (3) during the summer of 1961, all show the material advancements which God has bestowed on Cedarville College.
In the spring of 1962 the students of Cedarville College formed an outline of the new student center-gymnasium at the ground-breaking ceremony. In the fall of '62 the building is well on its way to completion. It will accommodate approximately 500 students,and will house a regulation basketball floor,lounge,book room.snack bar,game room,and banquet hall.

Progress is evidenced at Cedarville College in its building program. The Bookstore Dormitory (1) built in 1959 is a men's dormitory and also houses the college bookstore and snack shop. That year also saw the dining hall (2) enlarged and remodeled to accommodate the present student body. Milner Hall (3), formerly Milner Chapel, received in 1959 the addition of a wing of practice rooms for music students plus a brick exterior as opposed to its white one, (4). Now Milner Hall serves for classrooms as the student body has blossomed once again, necessitating a larger building. The New Women's Dormitory (5) completed in 1960 houses 105 coeds, the school nurse, and the office of the Dean of Women.
The purpose of Cedarville College is to communicate knowledge. This communication is to be the student's liberal education from which he gains understanding — that bond of interest and information between the individual and the world. In his education the student tries to cultivate and develop in himself Christian character through the attainment of sound knowledge and gamine wisdom. He seeks to be established in the fundamentals of the Christian faith, and to be led into a continuing, progressive experience of spiritual victory and to a practical expression of the Christian life. He learns to develop the understandings, attitudes, and habits necessary for him to participate constructively in the social and civic life of his community. Wisdom comes from this knowledge; culture, from this understanding.

Division Of Biblical Education Christian Education Practical Theology Biblical Studies
Christian Education The combining of Christian principles with learning and experience is Christian education. The learning takes place in the classroom where the student receives spiritual lessons for himself, valuable information on human behavior, and extensive files of material for future reference. Practice teaching is the utilization of methods taught in class. Such an opportunity arises at Grace Baptist Church in Cedarville, where Christian education students conduct Junior church and youth groups. Here, they find that Christian education is the application of the Word of God. The molding of young minds through the Word of God — Christian Education in action. Visual aids are used to reinforce words and to leave lasting impressions. Jean Fisher B.R.E., M.A. Joy Mackay A.B., M.A. 31
The requirement—diligent study; the result—a useful tool.
Biblical Studies Practical Theology God's revelation to man through His Word has proved to be an inexhaustible study down through the centuries. Man has studied it to understand it, attempted to discredit it, but has not been able to disprove it. He has written books about it, made famous speeches on it, and has even died for it. Here, the Bible is studied that the content may be fully appreciated, learned, and used. Its content is to be the criterion of living, and is to be taught to others. The exposition of Biblical truths. Robert Gromacki, Th. B., Th. M. James T. Jeremiah, A.B., D.D. George Lawlor, A.B., B.D., Th. M. Richard McIntosh, A.B., B.D., Th. M. Arthur Williams, A.B., D.D. Reward for perseverance. 33
Division Of Languages And Literature English Foreign Languages Speech 34
English The words we speak — how are they formed? what do they mean? how are they used? The literature we read — who wrote it? what is its philosophy? for what purpose was it written? Why do we study the English language and its literature? Those students who find themselves possessing a deep interest in English, major in this field and search for the answers to these questions. Their motivation may be skills in applying what they learn, or it may be knowledge, in and for itself. They may find themselves thinking deeper thoughts, setting higher ideals, and knowing the satisfaction of achievements that have lasted through the ages. Raymond Bartholomew, A.B., M.A. Kathi Dempsey, A.B. Richard McIntosh, A.B., B.D., Th. M. Edward Spencer, A.B., B.D. A personal problem solved by the personal approach. Literature . .. recorded symbols . . . communication of ideas. 35
Foreign Language When a student is first confronted with a foreign language, he often wonders how people can think and speak in reverse. But, as he finds English words which equal the foreign ones, sees the similarities and differences in structure, and learns the idiomatic phrases, the strange becomes familiar to him. The beauty of French, the terseness of German, and the rhythm of Spanish, hold a new and challenging world of study and thought for him. He thinks, studies, learns, masters, and then begins to think in a new way. 36 Concentration is required to absorb the elements of another culture. Harmon Bergen, A.B.
Speech Through the aid of various courses, the Speech Department endeavors to help the student know what something means, know how to convince others that certain ideas are right, and know how to demonstrate the power to say accurately and effectively what he means. The right word supported by voice inflection, pitch, timing, and the proper gesture combines to create a mental picture worth a world of meaning. Communication is the purpose of speech — the use of words expressing what the student wishes to say and the listeners perceiving that intended meaning. Speech is the rendezvous of comprehension and communication, each of which is incomplete without the other. Radio communication — a combination of vocal and mechanical skills. Characterization in costume Miriam Maddox A.B. John Reed A.B., B.D., M.A. 37
Art The artist reproduces and portrays that which he perceives. Capturing life in its grandeur and simplicity, he shows the beauty of the commonplace — as well as the ugliness in reality. His tools are the pencil and pen, thebrush and palette, a drawing board, a canvas. Through these handguided instruments he freezes in time that which would otherwise melt from memory. Unity, design, and motion are characteristic of life and must necessarily be incorporated in his re-creation of it. Here, in his course of study, he continues his natural talent with technical study and constant practice. This, he believes, will make him truly an artist. A corrective stroke, a perfected image. As patterns are fitted together, the abstract becomes concrete. James Russell A.B., B.D., M.A. 39
Yesterday's practice—today's perfection.
Music Rebecca Cooke, B.S. Richard Cooke, B.S., M.S. Ruth Smith, B. Mus., M. Mus. William Thornton, B.S., M.A. Warren Webber, A.B., B.M.E., M.M.E. George Zinn, A.B. Even after the music has ceased, the melody lingers on. The sweetest sounds are still inside. The student visualizes notes on the staff, imagines the vibrations in the air, realizes the feelings and depths that lie therein ... he hears the sound. As he studies the works of the masters, he is inspired by the obstacles and handicaps that were overcome in their strivings for immortality. He also has the unique experience of studying the poetic co-ordination in hymns and Christian music, which have been written to express love, devotion and gratitude toward God. He applies form, convention, and the novelty of his own personality to his creations. Music . . . a perspective of beauty . . . an expressive sound . . . another world of symbols. Clarity of tone and sweetness of melody blend into meaning and enjoyment. 41
Division Of Health And Physical Education
Health And Physical Education The program of physical education is one that the student realizes very little use for until he has actually used it. That required hour where his muscles are exercised and the built-in balance and co-ordination of his body are discovered. The hours of constant practice where he tries and tries again to perfect what he attempts. At last the reward is received in the attainment of precision, rhythm and gracefulness. The Cedarville College student discovers that the scope of education includes not only the enlightening of the mind, but the molding of the whole man. Donald Callen, B.S., US. June Kearney, B.S. Joy Mackay,AB.,M.A. Lane Moody,A.B., M.A. 43
Division Of Social Sciences History Geography Political Science Sociology
History Geography Political Science The political science of the past which governs much of the modern political method enables the student to find solutions to present problems in the light of those solved in the past. The facts the student learns in history class influence the way in which he thinks, and thus the way in which he handles a problem. Men come and go; places and dates change. But human nature remains the same, and reacts the same way to political power. A strategic location calls for the correct approach. Ralph Gale,Th. B., M.A. Cleveland McDonald, A.B., M. Litt. 45
Census reports shed light on population problems.
Sociology "What is man,that Thou art mindful of him?" Throughout the ages this has been man's question to God —and to himself. The record of man in his social environment is history. From it we can predict what he may do in the future as he faces various situations. Will he react ethically or unethically? Will he do that which will benefit society as a whole, or will he act purely from selfish motives? Man exerts an influence on those in his society and on posterity. In his role as a Christian student then, he has an added responsibility to his fellow man. His goal is the understanding of man in the light of Christian ethics. Cleveland McDonald, A.B., MLitt Mr. MacDonald points out some opportunities. ... students prepare to meet the opportunities. 47
Division Of Science Biology Chemistry Mathematics Physics
Biology Life — plant or animal, unicellular or multicellular. Does this form of life function as simply as it appears, or is it extremely complex? The leaf is a chemical factory — photosynthesis. The structure of the human body is a masterpiece of architecture — a group of delicate and interrelated systems. How are the emotions related to the physical aspects of life? Biology answers much of this, but leaves much unexplained. The students in this department realize that it suggests more ... a Maker. Inspiration in the study of God's creation. Basic structure is basic knowledge. John Brumbaugh A.B. Austin Elmore A.B. Dale Thompson A.B., M.S. 49
Chemistry Mathematics Physics The mysterious world of the fuming liquid, the test tube, the laboratory coat, and the observing eye and steady hand of a man compose the concept of the scientist to the common man. Yet, this man studies the basic materials of our existence. Numbers which represent the unknown factors, equations and formulae of things provide the practical application for the experiments of science. The identity of the unknown quantity is revealed by finding its relationship to the known ones. In training to become a chemist, a mathematician, or a physicist, the Cedarville College student studies the intricate composition and functions of the universe. Bert Frye. B.S., B.D. Clifford Johnson, B. Ed., M. Ed., D. Ed. Bruce Turnbull, B.S., B.D., M.S. A nswers through the magic of electrons. Never-ending research yields discovery. 51
Division Of Business Administration Accounting General Business Secretarial Science
Accounting General Business Assets, liabilities, ledgers, balance sheets, and a host of other words compose the jargon of the business student — peculiar to his field. He employs such instruments as the Monroe calculator and the adding machines, which provide shortcuts for the duties he must perform. He is adequately prepared for activity in business, church leadership, a financial service to his community. He receives professionatlraining in a Christian atmOsphere for his prospective career in business. Mechanical method of checking human error. Charting progress. Kenneth St.Clair B.S., M.A. Rodney Wyse A.B., M.B.A. 53
Secretarial Science Applied learning. Ardeth Webber, B.S. The secretarial science student upon graduation not only possesses an understanding of his field, but achieves a working knowledge and adept skill in such subjects as typing, shorthand, and business machines. As a result of his studies in this department, he also gains the capacity to understand up-to-date business terms and language. He then is adequately prepared to take his place in the fast-moving world of business. Typing efficiency is speed plus accuracy.
Division Of Psychology Psychology — the study of the man, his mind, and his soul. Why does he act and react the way he does? What are the behavorial patterns which categorize his actions? Is man's behavior controlled by instinct or reason? Where is the thin line which divides the two? Can personality intelligence, and innovations be treated experimentally? The student who works for a degree in this field searches for these answers to these questions. Max Dowell, B.S., M.S. Clifford Maddox, B.S., M.A., Ph. D. 55
Through the years.--rg Entering to learn Going forth to serve Cedarville College 1887 - 1963
In chapel, special meetings, and in Christian service, the student is continually reminded of his responsibilities of living before others as Christ lived and of leading others to his Savior. In his efforts to do this he is constantly aware of his own inability and the limitless ability he has through the Holy Spirit. He finds fulfillment in thanksgiving and adoration of the Holy One who desires his worship. The goal of his Christian life is not a bowed head, a harmonious voice, nor intellectual understanding. It is his effective communion with God, thanksgiving for all He is, and his submission to His will. Spiritual Life Christian Service Chapel Special Meetings
Christian Service Council CHRISTIAN SERVICE COUNCIL: R. McDugal, Miss Fisher, Mr. Lawlor, Pat Shonsheck, Dean McIntosh, Chairman. This is Christianity at work. Impressions — study — find expression in teaching the Word of God and giving testimony of what it can do. Two years of Christian service is required for each student. He may find avenues for his activities in conducting jail services, visiting rest homes, detention homes, organizing youth groups and Bible clubs, and preparing lessons for Sunday school classes. He is one person in the 60% of the student body who engages in Christian service. "For the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ." 61

Special Meetings
Special Bible Lectures Dr. John C. Whitcomb, Jr. Adding to the academic and spiritual training of the students at Cedarville College were the special Bible lectures held November 7-9. The featured speaker of these meetings was Dr. John C. Whitcomb of Grace Theological Seminary, Winona Lake, Indiana. Lectures were delivered by Dr. Whitcomb at the 10 a. m. chapel hour and nightly at 7:00 in the Alford Auditorium. A question and answer period followed the evening services for those who were interested. Subjects of the lectures centered around evolution, the Genesis flood, creation, science, and the Scriptures. These lectures were profitable in adding to the students' scientific background in relation to the Scriptures. With a B.A. major in Ancient and European history, Dr. Whitcomb graduated with honors from Princeton University in 1948. After graduating in 1951 with his B.D. from Grace Theological Seminary, he then received his Th.M. in 1953 and his Th.D. in 1957. He is now professor of Old Testament and Hebrew at Grace Theological Seminary and serves as director of post-graduate studies there. As a world wide traveler, Dr. Whitcomb has journeyed through the Near East and much of Western Europe.In missionary work,Dr. Whitcomb has visited mission stations in Peru and helped in establishing a church in Puerto Rico under the Foreign Missionary Society of the Brethren Church. Dr. Whitcomb has written articles for several theological journals and Bible dictionaries. Darius the Mede: A Study in Historical Identification, a defense of the historicity and authenticity of Daniel, was authored by him.He also co-authored with Dr. Henry M. Morris The Genesis Flood: The Biblical Record and Its Scientific Implications, a defense of the universality of the flood. Commentaries on Ezra, Nehemiah,and Esther were written by him for the Wycliffe Bible Commentary. His chronological charts are used by colleges and seminaries throughout the western hemisphere. 71
72 Rev. Robert L. Sumner Pastor Temple Baptist Church Fall Evangelistic Services The speaker for the Fall Evangelistic Services (September 24-28) was the Reverend Robert Sumner, pastor of the Temple Baptist Church,Portsmouth, Ohio.

Possessing the gregarious tendencies of man, the Cedarville College student finds himself a part of a unique society. He must adjust himself to campus life, to a limited number of people, and he must choose from a certain number of activities outside the classrooms to which he will devote his extra time and energy. For some this is a job, and for others it means channeling his talents in club participation. He thus prepares for social events and in turn develops his own particular society. This leads him into a wide range of roles from a boisterous basketball game to the calm sophistication of an afternoon tea or the formality of a banquet. But in all his activities, it is his goal to perpetuate the testimony of Jesus Christ. He seeks to personify the motto of his school through the practice of Christian ethics in every phase of his college career. Activities Organization Musical Groups

The result of the struggle of editors, advisor, and staff members to combine pictures, copy, and theme into a yearbook which accurately and attractively displayed Cedarville College, was truly the "Miracle," 1963. The race against time to meet deadlines, the brain-searching sessions to create balanced, unified layouts, and all the little flaws that turned up at the last minute, were soon forgotten in the rejoicing which followed the completion of the job. Each year it is the purpose of the Miracle Staff, not only to represent the year's activities, but to continually make the presentation better. To find out how the Miracle rates with other colleges, it is submitted for judging to the Associated Collegiate Press.

The College athletic program is supported by the trustees, faculty, and student body with great vigor. For a small school, the opponents have noted an unusually enthusiastic student-support of our team, win or lose. Cedarville, being a Christian College, we,therefore,emphasize that our athletics adhere to Christian principles. Our primary objective is not building a great team and bhilding the school's reputation as an exceptional athletic power only. Of far greater importance, whether it be intramural or inter-collegiate activities, is to develop the person into a physically sound individual better fit to fight the battle of life. To instill within the individual a determination to win is also an ardent desire of the College. Therefore, it is the sincere wish that the end result of athletics at Cedarville will be that the students learn how to win personal victories .wen when they lose athletic contests.

Coach Callen 11 8 Cedarville's basketball team, backed by experience, school spirit, and excellent coaching, lived up to the "Great Expectations" of its fans from the very beginning of the season. Ten returning lettermen, including all of last year's starters, were the nucleus of the Yellow Jacket cage squad which swept to a 7-game winning streak early in the season, knocking down such schools as Taylor, Indiana Tech, and Ashland and Bluffton of the Mid-Ohio League in the process. Coach Don Callan's charges also finished second in a mid-season tourney at Malone College, where star Dozier Carter was named to the all-tournament team. Outstanding performances were recorded by Carter and Gary Walthall, who placed high among the leaders in league scoring and rebounding. Seniors Norris Smith and Dave Jeremiah backed them up with double-figure point averages each. Dick Spencer and Sam Canine shared the other guard slot throughout the season. Spencer's 41 points at Taylor proved to be the major factor in Cedarville's conquest of the Trojans.
