"We After the house was moved closer

to the heart of campus, it became a quarantine house for some students

who contracted smallpox. Later it became a shoe repair shop. Once again, the Doll House was relocated. At the current location of

Daniells Hall it was used as a dormitory for a few of the women.

Next, it served as a small prayer room for the students. During the 1924-25 school year, the house served as a music studio which was affectionately known as

the "Grafonola." J. Lowell Butler, a voice and piano teacher, used the building as his studio. According to Dr. Edythe Cothren, former curator of Southern College's Heritage Mu- seum, "Professor Butler coined the name Grafonola, which he derived from the gramophone and pianola instruments." To make the building resemble a gramophone, Butler installed a crank handle on the side of the building, and on the front he painted several measures of music and the words "Brighten the corner where you are." The playhouse then moved just beyond the site of the old Tabernacle,

where it was used as a storehouse for

Wood Hall. There it was used to store old furniture. In 1958 the miniature house was purchased by a gentleman in the Collegedale community for use as a bathhouse near his pool. The college and Student Association made arrangements to buy back the yellow doll house in 1960. In 1973 the education department used the Doll House for recruiting.

It was transformed into a little red schoolhouse and placed in the college mall for display during Helen Dunchtck, jssocwfe VP for finance and firit lokcr editor, looks back over a collection of student College Days. publications. Later, in 1978 it housed the microwave relay for the college's radio station, WSMC-FM. On December 4, 1980, the Alumni Association voted to restore the Doll House to a central place on the Capturing campus. "I had known since 1960 about the Doll House," said William Taylor, now retired. "I thought the college needed a landmark for the Memories institution, something to remember the old days." The committee designated $5000 by Sherrie Piatt from the Alumni Loyalty Fund for the restoration. "I found pictures of the original Doll House and drew up

He begged us to accept the plans to enter the paper in two name 'Eccos' which is Greek for contests: one for design and writing, 'There they are, look at them.'" and another for cartoons. Two years later, in 1968, both names appeared on the cover. Says editor John Lauer. "None of the students liked the name Eccos." In 1970 the joker came out about two weeks after registration. "We planned the Joker all summer," says 1970-71 editor Jim Gress. This year's editor came close to that record. A 124-page volume with 24 pages of color was released 20 days after registration. In 1979 a multi-media slide show started on campus. "Throughout the year, my roommate, Keith

Langenberg, and I had taken a lot of slides," says Don Keele, one of the producers. "One night in March we realized we had enough to do a year in pictures. We then received permis- sion to do a show at Strawberry Festival which then consisted of games, ice cream, and strawberries. It was meant to be a stress relief before finals." Keele and Langenberg spent the next several weeks getting the production ready. Their room, Talge 216, became their office. They used two projectors and six slide trays to produce the 45-minute show.

"Several Graysville teachers and church members were arrested, however, and served time in jail previous to the Chain Gang arrests," he said. Pettibone also found the pub- lished date of the very first day of classes at Graysville School, Southern's predecessor, in doubt. "It was said to have started on Feb. 20,

1892," exclaims Pettibone, "but it couldn't have been then. That was a Sabbath!"

Sending a Message With Roses

by Shawn Wickham

What does staying up all night, getting wet, and sleeping in the streets of Pasadena have to do with witnessing? A lot. This year 855 church members spent 14,000 hours on the Seventh-day Adventist float for the Tournament of Roses Parade. Then on January 1 after a night on the streets, many of them cheered and screamed with pride as "their" float came by in the parade. This was the second year the church has had a float and the second year they have won a trophy.

Southern College is holding its tuition increase for 1992-93 to 5.6 percent—while public colleges raised their tuition in the current year by 12 percent and increases at four-year private colleges came to 7 percent, according to a College Board survey. Tuition will be $3750 per semes- ter, or $7500 per year (12 to 16 hours From left, David Dentoti, as SJC business manager A. N. Atteberry; James Appel and T.

The average scores are 8.79 and 8.6 respectively. "Students who take the MCAT before enrolling in General Physics at Southern are at a considerable disadvantage, on the Physics portion of the test," said Dr. Hefferlin. Their average score is 8.21. These results are based on an analysis of MCAT test scores from April 1976 to October 1990 and apply to students who sat only once for the MCAT.
