Bio History NoteFrom July 1975 Manchester College Bulletin:

"The tradition ...began as a Lutheran Student Organization in 1966.  The Grandstaffs, Orrel Little and David McCormick (professors in 1966), and the late Rev. H.R. Ogle (Lutheran pastor) began Sunday evening sessions including supper for the Lutheran college students at Manchester College.  The tradition mushroomed as students brought their friends and Mom and Dad Grandstaff welcomed them all."
