He and his of Seventh-day Adventists wife and four lovely daughters attended the meetings we were holding in Salon 007 7710 Carroll Avenue in that large port city. And when the first call for surrender was made, Cirilio and his Takoma Park, Maryland 20012 Telephone: Code 301, 588-0650 family responded and joined the class to prepare for baptism.

And truly, Ohio, Charles Beeler; Pennsylvania, Louis Canosa; every time heaven comes close to earth there is joy, thanksgiving, and song. Potomac, John McGraw; West Virginia, Douglas Take, for example, the story of Creation.

"The morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted COLUMBIA UNION CONFERENCE for joy."'

"Fear not," said the A. B. Butler Secretary-Treasurer angel, "for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. Edgar Bradley Assistant Treasurer E. F. Willett Auditor For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Donald Walker Assistant Auditor .

But then, as the disciples looked forward to the fourth great event, the second COLUMBIA UNION CONFERENCE coming of their Lord, they went forth to preach, "filled with joy, and with the Holy ASSOCIATION Ghost." Now they fully understood Isaiah's great prophecy: "And it shall be said in Alva R. Appel Secretary that day, Lo, this is our God; . .. we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation."'

The Atlantic Coast Conference is THE BEST BASKETBALL CONFERENCE IN THE NATION, PERIOD. And we intend not just to play, but to compete and win. Our motto for the season is: ACC ACCept the challenge, ACCept the opportunity. This season, Virginia Tech will have the toughest and most attractive home schedule in school history. With games against Duke, Virginia, Maryland, Wake Forest and our first-ever ACC game, against North Carolina on Dec. 19th. There is a pretty good chance that the Hokies will entertain the top- ranked team in the country several times during the season. We finished our run in the Big East Conference on a very positive note. advancing to the quarterfinals of the Big East Tournament after winning our last five home games to complete a winning season. To compete in the ACC will take a lot more from our players, our coaches, our fans and our entire program. The 2003-04 season saw Virginia Tech fans return to Cassell Coliseum in droves. As a school, we ranked sixth nationally in increased attendance. With this season’s schedule, we can surpass that stat. Sellouts will rule! The most satisfying aspect of my first season at Virginia Tech was the support and enthusiasm demonstrated by the students, fans and Commonwealth.

  • The Presidency of Warren Daniel Bowman 1949-1964
    x The Presidency of Warren Daniel Bowman 1949-1964 The Choice of a New College Head When Charles C. Wright was Bridgewater's acting president (1948-49), the search for a president of the college continued. In the fall of 1948, the institution's board of trustees, upon the recommendation of its search committee and of its executive committee, offered the presidency to Forrest L. Weller, a Manchester College graduate (1925) and a Ph.D. (1945) of the University of Chicago.1 Professor Weller, the Department of Sociology head at the University of South Dakota, accepted the appointment, but shortly thereafter resigned. 2 On December 31, 1948, the trustee board's executive committee, upon a motion made by John C. Myers, voted to consider Warren Daniel Bowman for the presidency of the college,3 and on February 21, 1949, the members of the board, by unanimous vote, elected Dr. Bowman president (his term to begin on July 1, 1949), and set his salary at $6,000 for the first year.4 The college's alumni association endorsed the trustees' action and assured the president-elect of its wholehearted support.5 ' The New President Warren Daniel Bowman (1894-1987), the son of Benjainin F. Bowman and Mary E. (Miller) Bowman, was born near Dayton, Virginia. He was educated at Bridgewater College (B. A., 1920) and at the University of Chicago (M.A., 1922; Ph.D., 1930). He was instructor at the State Teachers College, Farmville, Virginia, 1923-30; head of the Department of Education and Psychology at Juniata College, 1930-37; and a teacher in the summer sessions at George Peabody College for teachers (1923, 1924), Emory University (1925), the University of Virginia (1930), and Duke University (1936,1937).
