Large Turnout At
Booster Banquet

With a record number of tickets
sold, a large number of people from
Bluffton and surrounding community
attended the Bluffton college booster
banquet, featured with an address by
Ohio's lieutenant governor, Paul nj.
Herbert, at the Bluffton High school
gymnasium Friday night.
Plates were served to 264 people
but ticket sales reached the record
total of $50, according to final
check-up by Paul Detwiler, toast
master and chairman of the booster
committee.
The lieutenant governor was intro
duced to the audience by Mayor w.
A. Howe. Speaking in deliberate
conversational manner, the speaker
indicated that the small church col.
lege has definite role to play in q
period of national crisis.
When the soldier is through the
war is not won. The country must
also win the peace and the small lib
eral arts college has a function tx
train the leadership necessary fol
this function.
After the last war a period o
moral decadence set in because tn
leadership of the country was incar
able of meeting the crisis. Corrup
ton set in and demagogues captures
the popular fancy.
The nation, indeed, was fortunat
to get through this period without I
radical change in the social system
At this point the small denomination
al school with its emphasis on ideal
can play an important role.
Preceding the address were musica

Ramseyer with the proceeds of th'
banquet.
