"For each of us, special memories always seem to go back to those very close friendships we formed in our col­ lege days," he says. "It's great to see that so many alumni still remember the col­ lege through donations of their time, talents and resources." He finds the Alumni Involvement Program a particularly exciting idea. Through the program, alumni volun­ teers come back to campus to share their knowledge and expertise with current students, and Jerry promises that trip to campus will be a memory-filled visit. "I drive by campus every day," he says, "but if you don't come back in a while, you miss a lot." Jerry emphaszies the value of "old friendships and keeping in touch." He urges, "Get in touch with the alumni office, let us know where you are and what you're doing, come back t� visit, see your friends again. Those memories form the thread that ties us together as alumni." "I'd like to see the Class Notes section of the newsletter double in size," he says. "Don't just send in news of special awards and achievements. A lot of us are just plodders like me. I'd like to see things in there about what people are doing, where they live, how many child­ ren they have. An old friend might want I to get in touch with you." "Names, faces, deeds and memories" Wampler, '59, Heads are special, he says. "We all do it-see a name, put it with a faceand a deed-soon we're filled with memories of good Alumni Association times."

October, 1983 7 Homecoming 1983

The l 950's provided the theme for the 1983 Homecoming October 8. The classes of 1963, 1968, 1973, 1978 and 1982 met for reunion dinners fol­ lowing the traditional parade and foot­ ball game. Two alumni groups gathered to recreate special times they shared in col­ lege by reliving some of the action. Fourteen former B. C. baseball players challenged the current varsity baseball team in a morning game. Many of the returning players were members of B. C.'s 1978 ODAC championship team. In the evening, an Alumni Stage Band, directed by Dr. Thomas R. Thornely, Jr., earned a standing ovation from an appreciative audience. A vocal­ ist and twenty former Stage Band members representing the classes of 1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982and 1983 returned to participate in the reunion concert.
