Dr. D. W. Holbrook, president of Home Study Institute and for- mer College Relations director at Union College, will be the speaker at the Sunday morning commence- ment service, May 29. A staff and senior devotional will be the first meeting of grad- uation weekend. It will be held in Rees Hall Assembly Room. Seniors, bodi spring and summer, and staff members and their families are in- vited. Friday evening the Consecration Golden Cords To Give Full Year's Coverage "Next year's Golden Cords will, for the first time, cover a full year of activities," according to Bob Haddock, editor-elect. Work on the yearbook for next year is already well under way. Activities from April of this year to April of next year will be included in the book. "Many colleges are now giving a full year of coverage in their yearbooks," says Haddock. By in- cluding April and May of this year, we will be able to cover some of the most important activities of the year such as alumni weekend, the picnic, and graduation, which would otherwise be left out. Pa- cific Union College's yearbook, which received an Ail-American rating from the Associated Col- legiate Press last year, followed die full year format, along with South- ern Missionary College, and many other colleges and universities." Staff Meets The Golden Cords staff for next year met last Friday for its first meeting. Most of the staff has been selected, but a few positions are yet to be filled. There will be two associate editors next year: Sherry Trammell, who worked as literary- editor on this year's GC and Glenn Sackett. The literary editor for the book will be Ron Hixson. A new position on the staff, that of office manager, will be filled by Sandy Bayliss whose primary duties will be in picture scheduling for the book. Secretary will be Dussie Maier. Several portions of the book will be under the supervision of section editors. In charge of the faculty and departments section will be Dave Johnson; organizations editor will be Mike McGuckin, and por- trait editor, Bettina Strickland. Ad Manager Assisting business manager Low- ell Chamberlain will be Don Dron- en who will be in charge of ad- vertising. Dronen hopes to explore the possibilities of doing more per- sonal contact work among potential advertisers. Bids have been received from six companies for the printing of the book, according to Chamber- lain. Final arrangements on this and the portrait photography are being made this week. 'Operation Come' Promotes Union The newly inaugurated ASB of- ficers will launch their first pro- gram today and tomorrow at chap- els. Labeled 'Operation Come' it will promote Union College to the academy and high school seniors by letter writing and campmeeting visitation. Students will be encouraged to write letters to their academy friends—"not promotional letters, but just casual letters," says Jack Krogstad. ASB President. "These letters are just to remind the seniors of our interest in them," explained Krogstad. The second part of the promo- tion program will be personal campmeeting contacts. Student rep- resentatives from each state have already been chosen, and will work widi the faculty representative for that state in planning the camp- meeting activity. This is a new concept for die ASB. Krogstad commented, but he feels it will become an important part.

CT Editor Kermit Nette- burg, with the First-Class honor rating certificate in his hand, leads the staff in a windy celebration party atop the other clock tower. Staff members Beverly Beem, Sherry Liggett, Bob Haddock, Eldin Ehrlich, Kermit Netteburg, and Earl Cree all express thanks that the bell is not ringing. Clock Tower Rated First-Class Paper The CLOCK TOWER has received a First-Class rating, the highest ever achieved, from the Associated Collegiate Press, a national college Johnson Named Associate Dean Mr. Dale Johnson, present as- sistant dean of men, will become the associate dean next year to fill the vacancy created when Robert Schneider accepted a call to La Sierra College. Johnson, a 1964 graduate, will complete his Master's degree in guidance this summer at the Uni- versity of Nebraska. He has been assistant dean in the courts since September, 1964. Dean Schneider will join the physical education department at La Sierra. Schneider came to Union Col- lege two years ago from Ozark Academy. He is a La Sierra grad- uate. newspaper rating service. "The First-Class honor rating is comparable to Excellent," the ACP says. The CLOCK TOWER may be "justiy proud of its achievement." There is only one higher rating. All-American. The CLOCK TOWER received 3410 points. An All-American scor- ing was 3800 points; First-Class started at 3300. The rating is on a curve determined by the com- peting newspapers. Firs t-Class newspapers are among the top third of the college newspapers. The ACP especially commend- ed the CLOCK TOWER on its news coverage, make-up, and editorial page. In each of these areas the CT received the top number of points. In two areas, editorial page, fea- tures, and headlines, the CLOCK TOWER was commended with above superior rating. Last year's CLOCK TOWER re- ceived a Second-Class honor rating with 2560 points. This year's honor rating represents a 40% increase in quality. Clock Tower Weekly Finalized; To Be Published at UC Press The '66-'67 CLOCK TOWER will be published every Thursday ex- cept during vacations and semes- ter examination weeks. This became final on Monday when the CT and the Union Col- lege Press signed a printing con- tract for next year. "Because the contract terms were better than we had hoped, the editorial staff has decided to mail all 27 issues to all subscrib- ers," said Gerry Kennedy, CT busi- ness manager, who replaced Ben Trirnm. Trimm has accepted a call to work for the Review and Herald and attend Columbia Union Col- lege in Takoma Park, Md., next year. In explaining the change of mail- ing each Issue, editor Dan Paulien said, "The editorial staff discussed possible problems and came to the conclusion that CLOCK Towsn sub- scribers are interested in knowing what Union College students think as well as what diey do." Major editorial positions for next year have already been filled. Helping to oversee all phases of die production of the CT will be man- aging editor Boverly Beem. Asso- ciate editor specializing in makeup of the paper will be Karla Kramp- ert. With the additional issues there has been a need to enlarge the means of obtaining copy. About six staff writers will be appointed in addition to the regular reporters. "The staff writers will receive the top news stories and will write fea- tures. They will be people we can rely on when we need good copy," said Bill Bliss, who as news editor will be responsible for assigning news stories. Ric Green, feature editor, will sample student and faculty opin- ion and be responsible for arrang- ing a weekly book review column. Green will also oversee the work of the departmental editors. Judy Nelson. Denver Campus editor, promises a number of fea- tures on different aspects of nurs- ing student life. Painting by Union College artists will be featured next year. Donna Bietz, art editor, will oversee diis area. Jeff Baker, an art major cur- rently at Colorado State College, will do most of the cartooning and will write a column on art hap- penings in Lincoln and Omaha. Norman James will edit a col- umn dealing with areas of theology which vitally affect UC students. Allen IIopp, sports editor, will report on each intramural activity as well as writing semi-regular fea- tures on sports. "We are also planning a weekly world news summary as well as opinion columns on world affairs," said Ric Green. Holbrook Will Address Record Number of Union College Seniors in My Room in Here? trunk. Of course he may change his con- ccrns in a couple of days. How Can I Ever Arden Hagele worries about exams, but his bigger concern at the moment is how to pack eighteen large boxes in one small service will feature Elder Erwin Gano as the speaker. The senior class sponsors, Dean Robert Britain and Dr. Eugene Cascay, will par- ticipate in the proceedings. Klaus Forster, senior class pastor, will re- spond to Elder Gane's sermon. The senior class president. Jerry Lake; vice-president, Mary Harp; secretary, Beth Christensen; treas- urer, Eldin Ehrlich; sergeant-at- arms, Loren Greenman; pastor. Klaus Forster, and the other mem- bers of the class have chosen as the theme of graduation weekend and as their senior aspiration: "Not I But God In Me." The Baccalaureate service will be the 11:00 church service and will be in the auditorium. The speaker is Elder E. E. Cleveland from the General Conference Min- isterial Association. Saturday night is a class night which will be held in the audito- rium. Kit Watts is in charge of this special memories night. A reception for parents and graduates will fol- low in the Rees Hall Assembly room. Miss Marie Anderson, registrar, will participate in the conferring of degrees for the twenty-second consecutive year by awarding de- grees to approximately 130 sen- iors, the largest graduating class of Union College. A receiving line will be formed on campus after the ceremony. Music for graduation weekend is being organized by Mr. E. U. Tcs- terman and will be presented by the Golden Chords Chorale. Miss Marvelyn Loewen will be the or- ganist for the entire weekend. Welch Named Director of Admissions Dr. L. W. Welch has accepted the position of director of admis- sions for Union College. The new administrative position replaces the present system of a registrar's office. As director of ad- missions. Welch will have the power to act independendv on ac- ceptances or in consultation. Routine acceptances will be act- ed on by Welch. Applications re- quiring consultation will be han- dled by the director of admissions, dean of students, and if necessary, a full academic council. According to President Fowler, the clean of student affairs vacancy is not yet filled. Welch left this position to accept diat of director of admissions. Miss Marie Ander- son. present registrar, will con- tinue her work in the registrar's office on a part-time basis. Schlotthauer Cited For CT News Reporting Twyla Schlotthauer, junior Eng- lish major, has won the CLOC K TOWER'S award as best reporter. Several odiers were cited for their contributions to the news- paper—Kathy Nielsen. Glen Sack- ett, Linda Brennan. and Ron Hix- son. The award was based on quality of the writing, meeting deadlines regularly, and initiative. Twyla was always willing to do extra work, and this was a large factor in her selection as best reporter, according to the editorial staff. "Of course, she wrote good news stories which was the first con- sideration, but many others also wrote good stories," said editor Kermit Netteburg. Twyla's extra work can be seen in the special election issue. She wrote every story about the newly elected officers—almost all of pages 1 and 4. Twyla will receive $15, and the other four $7.50 each for their work this semester. The awards were part of a plan initiated this semester by die CLOCK TOWER staff. In order lo interest more students in journal- ism and the CLOCK TOWER, the staff voted to pay the better re- porters. The plan has worked well, ac- cording to news editor Earl Cree. A regular corps of reporters has worked hard all semester. 9 3-3 I CLOCK TOWER May 19, 1966 The End of It All Sophomores Win You're First Class, Too At ASB Picnic With this final issue the editor completes his work for the year. It has been fun as well as richly rewarding. But the time has come for him to yield his office key and pica stick to able and progressive editor-elect Dan Paulien. Like most college newspapers, the CLOCK TOWER has in the past year experienced both turbulent and calm waters. However, such is necessary if a newspaper is to make an honest attempt to satisfy the principles of truthful and objective journalism. Such turbulence, when it has occurred, we hope may have stimulated some debate, discus- sion, re-evaluation, or at least reflection. It has been the goal of this year's CLOCK TOWER to give a well-balanced, accurate image of college life at Union College. There have been those, of course, who have at times felt that the scales were tipped a little too far to one side or the other. Then again, there have been those who did not think there should be a balance at all. In effect they said: "Swjjig the pendulum all die way over and hold it there!" The extreme "be-nice" wing has asked: "What makes you think a college news- paper should have any criticism in it at all?'' And we have replied: "Should we consider our readers, both on campus and off, gull- ible enough to believe that everything is perfect at UC? Would not such an implied assumption on our part be an insult to their intelligence?" On the other hand, the far-extreme "scream-forth" wing has cried: "The very idea that our newspaper should have col- lege public relations in it! Why doesn't it strike out viciously for what we want re- gardless of the college?" Of these we have asked: "What makes you think the students and college are always on opposite sides of the fence? Don't students and college alike want what is truly in the best interest of all? How then can we be so vicious?" Needless to say, the great majority falls between these two extremes. It is, how- ever, true diat those of such far-flung phil- osophies more often speak their minds on the subject. Students of UC have been learning to ex- press themselves publicly through the CLOCK TOWER. We are glad for the letters to the editor which we have received throughout the year, and we hope that UC students will continue to speak in the fu- ture. It is important that students leam to take an active interest in their college so- ciety, for the interest they learn to manifest there will be somewhat comparable to the interest they will display in their environ- ment throughout life. The editor would not have enjoyed his work to the extent that he did were it not for the help and encouragement of those persons listed below on the masthead. Es- pecially does he pay thankful tribute to the ability and dependability of both copy edi- tors Beverly Beem and Sherry Liggett, make-up editor Bob Haddock, and news editor Earl Cree. Editorial advisor Veme Wehtje, fair, insiring, and generous with his time, cannot be overlooked when thanks are given out. by Stan Hardt Flying water balloons, swinging bats, vicarious surfing, swift track stars, one liquidated car, and 500 dirt)', sun-burnt picnickers all char- acterized the annual ASB spring picnic. It was a burning day for the occasion, although gusting winds kept contact lens wearers crying and girls griping as the annual event proceeded with unprecedent- ed success. The sophomores, who won last year as freshmen, continued their "Be Tough" policy as they took it all, much to the dismay of compet- ing classes. The sophomores racked up 92 points for the day, with the freshmen taking a second with 51 points. The juniors collected 27 points, and the seniors can thank Kit Watts for the major portion of their 17 points. Prizes were given at random throughout the day, compliments ot the surrounding Lincoln business firms who contributed over 40 prizes. A special thanks to the business firms for their generosity. The picnic was under the aus- pices of the Health and Recreation Committee of the ASB, widi Dean Schneider as advisor. Chairman Stan Hardt with committee mem- bers Lary Taylor, Jan Schultz, Gene Greeley, Judy Dahl, Mary Pruett, and special advisor Terry Dietrich did a grandiose job in planning and producing an excel- lent picnic. Thankless Jobs Thanked Two groups have often been the subject of campus jibes— and consequently two people. Now we wish to publicly an- nounce our gratitude for their almost thankless job. Joshua Turner and Ruth Whitfield deserve a large bou- quet of roses for a job well done this year. Miss Whitfield plans three tasty, balanced moals each day of the year, and receives such thank you's as "Not potatoes again!" "I hate mixed vege- tables!" and "How come there's no small spoons?" Real state- ments of gratitude, aren't they? And how many people have said, "Thank you," to Mr. Turner for the tulips that brighten the walks, or for the new water system. His year-long program of keeping our campus beautiful is often unnoticed—except when the water pipes are changed. But many of the recent visitors to our campus have remarked about the lovely campus. Such good deeds must not go unnoticed. Thank you Miss Ruth Whitfield and Mr. Joshua Turner for meeting our phys- ical and aesthetic needs so well. And while bouquets are floating in the air, we have one more to toss. Last Friday at chapel the CLOCK TOWER was thanked, the Golden Cords and die ASB were thanked; we clapped for everybody—except Linda Mclver, ASB vice-president. Linda has tackled a job much larger than those of previous ASB vice-presidents—quite a project for the smallest vice- president. But she has performed the many roles of the vice- president effectively. And what more can be asked of a leader? If your hear anything now, Linda, it's an ovation from the CLOCK TOWER.

In a day and age where there is music for everything to accompany almost every activity, seldom does one give music that is performed in the church a second thought, especially music that the congrega- tion participates in. But why should we bother to sing a hymn? To answer this let us explore the purpose it fulfills. In a worship service, the hymn can contribute to the meaningful- ness of the entire service. It can be a hymn of praise. This is only natural since one of the purposes of worshipping together is to praise Cod. This is one way each individ- ual worshiper can join together with others in lifting their hearts to the Lord in an audible form of worship. The hymn of preparation and the hymn of consecration are re- lated in that the heart must be searched. The hymn of preparation or meditation prepares the heart of the worshiper for the message that is to follow. The hymn of con- secration renews the heart in ded- ication to his Maker. Then, to sing a hymn meaning- fully, it would be essential to fol- low the words and endeavor to place oneself in die spirit the com- poser intended. Mrs. White admon- ishes us to sing with the "spirit and understanding." This does not mean that all mus- ical knowledge should be dis- pensed. If a person is blessed with musical ability, this would enable him to better understand and con- tribute to the spiritual blessing. Since one of the purposes of hymns is to prepare the heart, it seems that one of the first requi- sites of singing a hymn in the con- gregation would be to sing with the whole heart. Would this mean that a person with no musical back- ground, singing with his whole heart, would have a more accept- able offering to the Lord than a musical person, not having pre- pared his heart, but presenting a more pleasing sound to the human ear? No. The worth of a hymn is in- creased by the stature of the words. Often a verse of a hymn is as thought provoking as a ser- mon. They provide much material for private devotions. We are fortunate to have the privilege of participating in an au- dible form of worship through hymns, and the students at Union must realize this by the way they sing. Each one of us can share with the other worshipers in the congregation and gain the blessing die composers intend. Mono no . . . Monona by Kit Watts y o u old t o w e r are our stoic emblem. Chisled into the skyline your rude sculpture defies the sloped prairies and prongs its point above the treelined patterns of the campus. You old time- keeper embelish the hours with your metalic strokes— the hours that have yielded to a mosaic of experience. Upon each fragment is the stamp of your image. Those transcampus dashes to class; those sunflecked autumn strolls; each bears the indelible press of your presence. And how many are the fogged nights we have sought your etched face, from the darkness even from the tears? Through every hour we trace your design in bold relief as we unconsciously pause from the textbook, from the practice period, from the game, and count like raised dots embossed in marble, one, two, three, four, five. . .and when some moment we discover your voice is silent your face still, we wonder how unob— trusively you infused our reflex of living, cementing the mosaic into place. Your are the unplanned motif, the artless squared bust we crown with undestined laurels your name is cast in song and mounted on annual memos and from your framed portrait drape the golden cords.

The common possession of all until at last your carved features have become the strange incarnation of a spirit. The spirit of Union College. "Tomorrow" is the Word (ACP)—What is the "art" of procrastination? The Mount Mirror of Mount St. Seholastica College, Atchison, Ken- tucky, explains it this way: The setting is a college library and you are a student. Your comps are in a week and you haven't begun to study. You have four big papers to write before you can even think about studying for the test. The time is ripe. The hour is at hand. And it's spring! You look at the stack of refer- ences in front of you. You open a book, pick up your pen, and place it on the blank paper. Then you look out the window. And you keep looking out the window for a long time. An almost evil smile comes to your face. From whence has come the inspiration? But you have made the decision. You will waste the whole afternoon! You put the cap on your pen— the pen that will not again see the light of this day. Then you plan, not detailed planning, but enough to keep the afternoon from having any direction whatsoever. You pick up your books and walk into the magazine section of the library. On the way, you sar- donically convince that apprecia- Senior Placements Barros, Ruth, Teaching Elementary Grades 3 and 4, Weeping Water, Nebraska Beatty, Charleine, Secretary, Kettering Hospital Brenneise, Lloyd, Teaching, Junior Academy, St. Louis, Mo.

Together, you leaf dirough mag- azines. keeping in mind not to read anything assigned for class. Mag- azines such as Horizon, Holiday, Travel are good. They seem to have little to do with you, now. Then, if the weather is agree- able, go outside. Find some place you'd like to be and sit there. Or better j et, just amble or ramble or mingle or wander, whichever you and the weather are in the mood for. Say it is a warm spring day and you and your friend decide to ramble. Now rambling, too. is an art. To truly ramble you must have no fixed goal whatsoever in mind. You just walk slowly, or skip slow- ly. and look at things, turning a corner occasionally. At some time during your ram- ble, you will find yourself back where you started. This probablv means you are dirough rambling for die day. The next thing to do is sit down and rest. You are no doubt vers tired. Go to some quiet place near- by and get some liquid refresh- ment. Then tell someone what you did. If you happen to have sadistic tendencies, tell someone who was working all afternoon, but didn't get anything done. These are the people less apt to respond to the tales of your escapades with cut- ting remarks. Then comes the worst part of procrastination—the hangover. But remember, it is an art. The onlv trouble is that all artists, except those who were born rich, have to do other work for a living. The artists of procrastination are not well-paid people. I May 19, 1966 CLOCK TOWER Golden Cords Dedicated to Hauck, Wilson The 1966 Golden Cords was in- troduced to die students of Union College in convocation May 13. The editor is Deana Harper. The joint convocation followed its usual agenda, until Mr. William Rankin, the speaker of the morn- ing, was rudely interrupted by Rob- in Simmons and Earl Creel After repeated attempts to continue his talk, Mr. Rankin surrendered the microphone to Simmons while Cree found a suitable speaker, Deana Harper, to utilize the time left for Mr. Rankin. She introduced the 1966 Golden Cords to the students and then presented Dr. R. W. Fow- ler with the first copy of the book. The literary editor, Sherry Tram- mell, presented two copies of the new annual to the two men to whom it was dedicated. She first called Mr. Arthur Hauck, head of the speech department, to the mi- crophone to accept the honor. She next presented Dr. Leland Wilson of the chemistry department with an edition of the 1966 Golden Cords. Charles Smith, president of the 1966 Golden Cords, then acknowl- edged the contribution of the busi- ness staff. Mr. Eugene Kilgore, the financial adviser, received a copy of the annual from Mr. Smith. Miss Harper returned to thank Mr. Rankin, the literary adviser, for the help and advice given to the staff. She announced that the yearbooks for the students had ar- rived with defects in the printing. Miss Harper explained, "We had the choice of keeping the books as they were, or sending them back to be corrected. We wanted the year- book of 1966 to be the most accu- rate for you, so we sent it back to be corrected." The books are expected to be returned by May 23. Six Baptized After Evangelism Class Effort Arthur Hauck Leland Wilson Six people indicated their desire to be baptized into the Seventh- day Adventist church as the result of a crusade conducted by the pub- lic evangelism class of Union Col- lege. Under the direction of Floyd Bresee of the religion department meetings were held in the North- side Adventist Church, Apr. 15- May 7. Myron Voegele is the pas- tor. 329 UC Men Take SS Qualification Test Opening night, approximately 200 people attended. The sermon was entitled "The Bible in the Space Age—inspired or expired?" The largest audience was estimated to be 225 during the second week. Non-Adventists attended everv night, according to Donna Gibson, crusade hostess. For audience appeal, a nature film was shown each evening and the Bible messages were illustrated with "black light." The fourth and final test in the current series of the Selective Serv- ice College Qualification Tests will be administered on June 24, ac- cording to Lt. Gen. Guy N. Hen- ninger, state director of Selective Service. Applications for the test can be obtained at any Selective Service local board or from the registrar of Nebraska University or from the student affairs office at Union Col- lege. Applications must be post- marked no later than June 1, 1966. Last Sunday some 329 Union College men plus a substantial number of other Nebraskans took the test. Union College had vol- unteered to be a testing center for Lincoln to provide space for the over-flow which was expected at the testing center on the Univer- sity's campus. According to a report from Science Research Associates, the Chicago educational publisher ad- ministering the tests, more than 800,000 applicatioas for the first diree tests had been processed, in the eleven years between 1951- 1963. the Selective Service Col- lege Qualifications Test was given to only slighdy more than 600,000. The criteria concerning placing student registrants in class 11-S in- clude the following: (1) High School seniors must have been accepted by a college or university and have scored 70 or better on the CQT. (2) Freshmen must have a 2.00 average and have scored 70 or bet- ter. (3) Sophomores must have a 2.11 average and have scored 70 or better. (4) Juniors must have a 2.00 av- erage and have scored 70 or better. (5) Seniors must have a 2.91 average and have scored 80 or bet- ter. (6) Those wishing to enter grad- uate school must have fulfilled the senior requirements for GPA and have scored the same, plus be ac- cepted by a graduate or profession- al school. The GPAs stated in the above represent those for Union College only which are based on guide lines set by the SSS. According to a local newspaper, the group of Nebraskans that met in front of UC's gymnasium Sat- urday morning, were "hopping mad." But Dean Welch, dean of students at Union College, denied the stated atttitude. "The men were conceivably disappointed, some having traveled some dis- tance, but the majority were re- sponsive, agreeable, and courteous. None were "hopping mad." Those who assisted Dean Welch in administering the CQT were Dr. Laurence Downing, Dale Hepker, Don Moon, Louis Torres, Linda James, Thelma Gibb, Pam Ballard, fudy Limerick, and Bob Miller. The tests and the unused tests were sent to Science Research As- sociates in Chicago. They will be Didah dahdididit dahdidahdit by Twyla Schlotthaur "Frustrated" is the adjective thai could apply to me. Last week I attended a meeting of the recently- reactivated Megacycle Club—an organization for interested radio amateurs. I felt as if I were a permanent resident of that often jeered at "left-field." Enthusiastic talk about a new Heathkit "single sideband receiver," "antenna rotor," "selectivity," and a "phone patch" drifted over my head. Con- tinually, the initials F-C-C were referred to-FCC regulations, FCC tests, FCC licenses. Sensing my confusion, a "ham" (licensed radio amateur) in the club offered to explain. "The FCC (Federal Communi- cations Commission) regulates all radio communications. An amateur radio operator must have an FCC license to operate his 'rig.' I'm working for my license now," vol- unteered my friend. "The require- ments for a license aren't really hard—sending and receiving Morse code and a knowledge of radio theory and FCC regulations. Then you'll have to—" He broke off as a series of short, sharp sounds pierced the air. "Didah dahdididit dahdidahdit dahdidit dit - -" The pitch sounded like it was in the near vicinity of B flat—the one above middle C. Sh—Listen •"Is— Is— th-that Morse code?" "Un-huh. Every Tiam' knows the code. It—sh—I want to listen." Club president Bud Gooch opened a dis- cussion on a club project—the pur- chase of a new sideband receiver. I learned that the old receiver was •one of the earliest sideband mod- els made. After it was traded in, -$150 would still be needed to pur- chase a new one. The new receiver would have more "selectivity, sen- sitivity, and stability," (Whatever that meant). Also another current problem was discussed. It seemed that the "5-element Tri-Band Beam antenna" lacked a rotor; conse- quently the signals transmitted were going only in one direction- west. Of course if one wished to stand on the roof of the ad build- ing and turn the antenna by hand —A motion was made to investi- gate the purchase of a "non-hu- man" rotor. A phone patch to con- nect a telephone to the rig would also be a much appreciated im- provement of the "ham-shack" (Room 517). Worldwide Is Next In the last month, UC operators have worked 15 states, including Alaska. Soon they hope to be on the air with 300 watts, single side- band on 80 meters to 10. This will make worldwide coverage possible. Almost all Adventist colleges have amateur radio stations and regu- larly check in on the Adventist Amateur Radio Net, Thursday af- ternoon, 20 meters. On Schedule "WA6NVN, This is WB6DFW, portable, Lincoln, Nebr., calling on schedule." The La Sierra College station returned the call and through Nebraska's blizzard, news and greetings were exchanged with "sunny California." A CQ (general call) from California was answer- ed by our Union College station. A Sacramento resident was quite shocked to learn that Lincoln had 50 degree weather on Mar. 2— Sacramento, capital of "sunny Cal- ifornia," was freezing at .30 de- grees. Jim Gilbert, club sponsor, turned the conversation to MegaCycle Club activities when he was a UC student and a member of the club.

Current plans for the Peanut Hill are pos- sibly a change of format making a larger book, using more color, bet- ter pictures. "Another tentative plan is to have the Peanut Hill more actively involved in dating instead of just being a directory," stated Dietrich. "This will be a first on the UC campus and if the students co- operate it should be a success." A deadline of less than two weeks for the production of the 1966 Peanut Hill is the staffs aim. All faculty pictures and Denver students pictures will be taken be- fore registration. A second semester addition to the book may be run in the CT. This supplement will be printed in a form that can be clipped from the CT and added to the Peanut Hill. The staff positions for the 1966 - > Mayor Dean Peterson of Lincoln, Elder J. L. Dittberner of the Northern Union, Union College President R. W. Fowler, Arch- itect Steve Cook, Dean of Men Robert Britain, and Chairman of the Board R. H. Nightingale break ground for the new high- rise men's dormitory. Ceremonies were held May 1, and the basement hole is almost completely excavated now. Peanut Hill are as follows: Earl^j^OiA/ Cree, assistant editor; Don Sauser, art editor; Kathy Swanson, roster editor; Lana Tusken, layout editor. The positions of typists and the Denver campus editor have not been filled. IBM Computer Will Aid In Instruction and Accounting Doctorate Party J Honors Maxwell | Dr. C. Mervyn Maxwell, new head of the religion department, was guest of honor at the Doctor- ate party last Tuesday night. The tradition at Union College is to hold a party for the professor who has most recendy received a Ph.D. Dr. George P. Stone, chairman of the psychology department and last year's guest of honor, was emcee at this party. President and Mrs. Fowler per- sonally drove to the Maxwell home and chauffeured Dr. and Mrs. Maxwell to King's restaurant for a smorgasbord and party. The din- ing room had tables decorated with Greek symbols. The English translation of the guest table said "There is a wise and learned man among you." The admonition on the speaker's table had a slighdy different connota- tion: "knowledge puffs up." The Union College data pro- cessing department is scheduled to receive a new battery of elec- tronic equipment. The IBM 1401 Processing Unit, 1403 Printer- Model 2, and the 1311 Disk Stor- age Drive are to be installed for second semester use. Elder P. C. Jarnes gave a life sketch of Dr. Maxwell. Dr. Max- well gave a summary of his thesis including selections from "Cliryso- stom's Sermons against the Jews" which he translated from the Greek. Dr. Maxwell stated that the part of the program which he enjoyed most was the tape recording Dr. Stone had secured from each of Dr. Maxwell's brothers and sisters and a letter from his father. Mr. Arthur Hauck had recorded these on one tape with music between each one. Dr. Fowler then presented the traditional gifts—a desk pen set for Dr. Maxwell with his name en- graved on a brass plaque, and a bottle of perfume for Mrs. Max- well. 71 Attend Campout Held By Ministerials by Dave Jarnes A campout, designed to promote Seventy-one students spent both fellowship among ministerial stu- dents and their friends and to stimulate thought on theological and practical subjects, was held at Camp Calvin Crest near Fremont, Nebr., for the weekend of May 6-8. Activities such as waterskiing on near-by Fremont Lake and swim- ming, badminton, volleyball, and Softball were available as soon as the students arrived. That evening Elder C. M. Maxwell had the ves- per service. The Sabbath school classes were taught Sabbath morning by three ministerial students, Jerald Hurst, Walter Nuessle, and Bill Chamber- lain. Elder Roy Harris spoke on "The Voice of God" during the 11 o'clock service. Two discussion groups met on Sabbath afternoon, one on the 144,000, conducted by Elder P. C. Jarnes, and one on the minister's home life, conductcd by Elder W. F. Bresee. After a short vesper service, conducted by Wayne Vorhies, a short hike was taken to the camp's lookout tower which overlooks the Platte River and Fremont. While tho group was at the tower, Dale Culbertson and David Jarnes led them in prayer for the evangelistic meetings being held in Lincoln by the evangelism class. A bonfire, a marshmallow roast, and group games finished the eve- ning. nights at the camp and approx- imately 100 attended the Sabbath morning services. All of the religion faculty were present at the camp. The students attending the campout considered it a success and a similar activity is being plan- ned for next fall. The tentative date is Oct. 7-9, and the officers of the club are planning on the same campsite. Plans Laid For Tennis Courts There may be new tennis courts ready by next school year, says Mr. George T. Gott, business man- ager. The site of the future courts is situated north of Stockwell and east of the furniture factory. The plans include three courts with a possible curb encircling the courts for ice skating season. The school is now pricing con- crete and macadam to determine which would be the cheapest and best suited for the prospective courts. The problem with size is die main concern of Mr. Ned Saun- ders, who is foreman of the job. He says that 51st street presents a problem. The plans for the courts run into the ditch at the side of the street. by Sherry Liggett The 1401 Processing Unit per- forms all the arithmetical, logical and control functions; contains 8,000 positions of alphameric core storage; each position addressable and usable. This unit contains the program instructions and data stor- age units which provide informa- tion necessary for all communica- tions within the system. The 1403 Printer-Model 2, pro- vides the printed output for the IBM 1401 Processing Unit. This remarkable machine utilizes an ad- vanced concept of printing which allows it to print 600 lines per minute with character selection numbered at 48 including 12 spe- cial ones. This installation facil- itates a faster and more efficient preparation of reports, records, and operating documents. The 1311 Disk Storage Drive provides high-speed, random ac- cess storage for the 1401 Process- ing Unit. A single disk pack stores 2,000,000 characters, expandable to 3,000,000. The pack contains six rotating disks and provides the necessary arrangement to allow data transfer at a rate of 77,000 characters per second. This also allows any information to be found within 250 milliseconds. This system utilizes a flexible combination of transistorized com- ponents which will automatically perform entire accounting and data processing procedures. It is among the more advanced equipment in the electronic data field and is be- coming a necessity to insure ac- curacy, efficiency, and depend- ability in establishing, recording, and maintaining business records. These new machines will pro- vide many services for the entire school plant. The registrar's office will use them for grade processing, registration, and transcript making; while the accounting office can utilize the equipment in maintain- ing student accounts, industry ac- counts, and in payroll preparation. This new system will also be used in instruction—data processing, 61, 62; and computer programming, 103, 104. Both of these classes have been offered this year, but students in computer programming have had to go to the University to check the accuracy of their prob- lems. Students in the chemistry de- partment will be required to gain familiarity with what a computer can do. Many of the courses will include problem and laboratory as- signments in which the computer can be used to great advantage. With this equipment students can devote more time to creative work and less to tedious computation. The machines will also be used in faculty or student research proj- ects. A remote installation may be employed in the cafeteria to aid in billing students for their food. Mr. Edwin Eivins, who will be manager of the data processing department and the instructor for the various classes involving these machines, is currendy a systems and methods analyst in the State of Iowa Comptroller's office. Eiv- ins is a graduate of Simpson Col- lege, Indianola, la., and began working for the state in 1954. Be- fore this time he was employed by the Des Moines Transport Com- pany.

Science Building Nears Completion The new addition to the science building is scheduled to be com- pleted by the time school begins this fall. The addition will almost double the size of Jorgensen Hall, as it will contain nearly 12,000 square feet of additional space. The outside portion has been entirely completed and windows installed, except for the loading dock at the rear. The plastering of die interior, one of the major jobs, according to Mr. Ned Saunders, construction supervisor, is approx- imately three-fourths finished. In another week the building elevator will be made operative. Each of the three science de- partments has its own plan for the use that the new space will have. In the physics department die first floor space will be used for a radioisotopes laboratory, a gen- eral physics office, and an ad- vanced physics laboratory for spe- cial research. There will also be a new physics library with an ad- joining conference room with cal- culators and a single-concept film projector. The basement is to be an open laboratory for physical Changes Revealed In History Tour A change in personnel is the major switch in plans for this sum- mer's Union College history tour. Elder Wayne Olson, Bible teach- er at Campion Academy and who has spent 17 years in the Middle East, will replace Mr. and Mrs. Dale Hepker, original tour leaders. Mr. and Mrs. Hepker will be mov- ing to Middle East College in Beirut, Lebanon. Mr. Hepker will be the chair- man of the English department and Mrs. Hepker will teach English and sociology. In addition to the previous tour plans, Luxor, the old capitol of Egypt, will be visited. sciencc students. An open lab is a lab to which a student comes when he has free time. On second floor the chemistry department plans to set up two staff offices widi connected lab- oratories and reader's room, a large student laboratory, an instrument laboratory, a new stockroom, and a chemistry library. The biology department is plan- ning for two animal storage rooms, one for preserved animals and one for live animals, a new stockroom, three complexes each composed of reader's room, faculty office, and laboratory, and a biology library. G. C. Band Organized The first General Conference band in history will be directed by Dr. Melvin S. Hill, chairman of the Union College music depart- ment. and Mr. Norman Krogstad. chairman of the Andrews Univer- sity music department. The band will perform the first Friday night and Sabbath after- noon of the General Conference session in Detroit. Dr. Hill said he hopes to have a 100 piece band, but at the pres- ent time there are only 80 mem- bers. He and Mr. Krogstad have been working on the project for about six mondis. The members will receive their music in die mail this week or early next week for practicing since diere will be a very limited time for practice at General Conference. During the week Dr. Hill will help with the music and on die second weekend he will be assist- ing widi the orchestra.
