UNION CU-.-yt LIBRARY MAR 5 1970 noted singing grougNCOLN, will perform at Union by Maria Kelly A live western in concert form will be the entertainment feature on Saturday night, Feb. 28, in the Union College gymnasium. The performers will be the Tuc- son Arizona Boys Chorus. Ambassadors in Levis from the land of cactus and canyons, the Boys Chorus, founded in 1939, has thus far given more than 20C0 concerts to tumultous ac- claim throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, and Australia. The Chorus has re- corded best sellers under the Capitol and United Artists labels; has appeared on such popular network TV shows as the Bell Telephone Hour and those of Ed Sullivan and Mike Douglas; and has given a performance for the President of the United States in the 1963 White House Christmas Tree-lighting ceremony. The Chorus is incorporated as a non-profit, nonsectarian or- ganization administered by a board of directors comprising many of Tucson's most distin- guished citizens. At its headquar- ters in Tucson's Temple of Music and Art, the Chorus numbers well over 100 boys aged 8 to 15, selected through auditions held three times a year. The touring unit is chosen from among those students with the best voices who have earned top grades in their studies and who, by special arrangement with the Tucson Public Schools, are permitted to make up lost school work with tutors when they return home. In summers the boys head for their Little Outfit Ranch in the Huachuca Mountains, where daily rehearsals for the follow- ing season's concert tours are combined with swimming, hik- ing, and plenty of fun on horse- back. The Chorus has repeatedly won the trophy for "best organ- ized riding croup" in Tucson's rodeo parade. The boys travel for concerts by the tourin^them^lves.

Harris centers Week of Prayer on events of crucifixion week # Clock Tower Vol. XLIV Union College, Lincoln, Nebr., February 27, 1970 No^ Stutzman wins "Miss Union" title Aria Stutzman was crowned Miss Union 1S70 last Saturday night at the 1970 Miss Union Pageant held in the college au- ditorium. _ . „.,, Runners-up were: Jam Tikker, first runner-up; Linda Christen- sen, second runner-up; Judy Au- lick, third runner-up; Valerie Stotz, fourth runner-up. These girls were selected from the nine semifinalists which also in- cluded: Debbie Baugher, Miss Congeniality; Anita Folsom; Lin- da Kellie; and Garnet Wiese. Following the evening gown competition, each girl gave her talent. Here the girls were judged upon quality of the talent given and originality. Four vocal solos and five readings were given. Talent was the most important factor on the night of the pag- eant. The score given for talent was doubled so that it would be worth twice as much as the other competition Following this, the Master of Ceremonies for the evening, Dean R. L. Britain, Dean of Men, in- troduced the contestants. As each girl, dressed in a formal evening gown, was announced, she walk- ed down a 30-ft long ramp pro- ceeding from the stage down the center of the gym. On the basis of the accumula- tive score, including the tests given before the pageant to test knowledge of the school and knowledge of clothing selection and social ethics, as well as the personal interview with the judges, where they attempted to judge basic personality and char- acter, the five finalists were se- lected. The only beauty that was judged was the beauty of char- acter. The five finalists, in alphabet- ical order, selected a question which they had never seen be- fore, and then attempted to an- swer it without much hesita- tion. Here they were judged on composure, expression, imagina- tion, and alertness, to name a few. The score they received from this was added to the previous score and the one with the high- est total score was named Miss Union. The distinguished group of judges included: Mayor Sam Schwartzkopf, mayor of Lincoln; Mrs. Adolaid Spurgeon, Minister of Music at the First Methodist Church as well as director of choral activities on the east cam- pus of the University of Nebras- ka- Mrs. Joyce Critchfield, house- wife, former bridal consultant; Mr. Richard Gibson, editor, Christian Record Braille Founda- tion; Mr. Thom McCann, man- ager of the salon at Brandeis. The purpose of the pageant was twofold: first, to create an official hostess and representa- tive for the ASB; and second, to help provide education for Ad- ventist youth through a scholar- ship program. Sunday evening, March 1, marks the beginning of the sec- ond semester week of prayer. Elder James Harris, Central Un- ion Conference MV secretary, will speak for the week of prayer and will start the series with the topic, "We've found the Messiah . . . come and see." The central theme of the week of prayer will be "Behold the Lamb of God ... at the foot of the cross." The opening sermon will lead toward topics dealing with the crucifixion, the resur- rection, and the glory of the cross. The week is to close with a communion service Sabbath morning. As a novel feature for the se- ries of talks, two students will be interviewed at the beginning of each meeting concerning the value of Christ in their life. Stu- dents are to play leading roles in song service, special music, and in the reading of scripture and prayer. "I'm giving this week of prayer because I need a refreshing, springtime experience with Christ," stated Elder Harris. He sophomore nurses to be capped tonight The annual sophomore nurses' capping service will be held at 7:00 o'clock tonight in the College View Church.

James Harris graduated from a ministerial course at Pacific Union College in 1951 and in- terned for two years in Southern California. He then pastored churches until 1959 when he be- came an associate MV secretary in the Northern California Con- ference. He has been in the MV work since that time. In 1968 he came to the Central Union Con- ference as MV secretary. "I've known Christ for 23 years, and every year has been an ad- venture," stated Elder Harris. "He's not let me down yet." Elder Harris will be available for counseling in the afternoons and evenings during the week.

"Even o fool must now ond then be right, by chance."—Cowper time limit, more lines needed A problem exists with regard to the dormitory telephones. It ap- pears that it is quite possible for a very small handful of students to entirely cut off three dormitories from the outside world. Two cases illustrate this point: On a recent Friday night, a friend reports, he dialed the Prescott Hall weekend number approximately once a minute for a full 45 min- utes and got a busy signal every time he dialed. He finally gave up. Another person reported that she was on the receiving end of a 90-minute phone call from Prescott Hall. The precise nature of the call was not disclosed. Of course the root Of the problem is that Prescott Hall has three phone lines for about 150 men and in Rees Hall there are only four lines for about 300 women. South Hall largely lacks the severe con- gestion problems of the other dorms; its ratio of three phones to 110 students seems satisfactory. The preferable solution for another year would be to increase the number of trunk lines to five for Prescott and nine for Rees Hall. It would probably be necessary to add another Rees Hall monitor during peak hours. These additions would give Prescott and Rees Halls approximately the same resident-to-phone ratio as South Hall. However, statements about the advantages of increased tel- ephone capacity do nothing to aid the immediate situation. We suggest, therefore, that the dormitory deans establish a time limit of approximately 10 minutes on phone calls to and from the dormitories during specified peak hours. Obviously, an exception could be made in the case of a dire emergency, but at least the odds for an emergency call getting through would be improved. Most es- sential business could easily be transacted in a 10-minute conver- sation, and those who wish to merely visit would simply have to realize that the dormitory phones are a public, and not a private, facility. The desk monitors would have to enforce the rule, of course, to make it effective. But with the cooperation of the student body, we believe that this could bring about a major improvement in the ful- filment of the telephone's real goal as an instrument of communica- tion. The Editors recommends economy, awareness It is well known that Union College faces financial problems similar to those being encountered by other colleges and universities throughout the nation. The difficulties are threefold: 1) Costs are rising rapidly, both in private colleges and in public universities. 2) Private colleges are not growing at the pace of their state-fi- nanced counterparts. 3) Sources of income are limited for Seventh-day Adventist institu- tions, since, as a matter of policy, they do not accept government aid. (See opinion at right) Some possible solutions to this financial predicament might be to: 1) raise tuition and fees; 2) increase the enrollment; 3) find other sources of income; and/or 4) discover ways to economize. To launch a program of strict economy seems the most fruitful solution at present. The president of New York University recently appointed a 25- member Presidential Commission of faculty, students and adminis- trators to find ways to reduce the estimated budget for 1970-71 by at least seven percent. There are several Items which a similar economy commission at Union might investigate. For example, 65 classes are currently taught to an enrollment of five or fewer students per class. Is there a practicable method of using these teachers' time more effectively? Do the benefits of data processing machines compare favorably with their expense. Do the college industries yield returns proportionate to the investment? Consideration of these and similar questions could lead to substantial economies. Perhaps another advantage that might accrue would be in- creased student and faculty awareness of small economies that might be put into effect immediately. Although small economies will never produce a million dollars for a new administration building, no opportunities for stretching the budget should be overlooked. The expense of picking up campus litter and the cost of re- placing items thrown away, lost or damaged through negligence are expenditures which might be considerably reduced if students and faculty were more conscious of the need for strict economy. JM -FEBRUARY- New Student Center Month DO YOUR PART It all depends on YOU! letters the other side "In a case of dissension, never dare to judge till you've heard the other side."—Euripides rebuts tower foes Dear Editors: Upon reading the letter to the editor in our February 13 issue of the Clock Tower, I must admit I experienced the "fight or flight" reflex. Just what significance does the clock tower have to Union College alumni, and to peoples all over the world? In reading the his- tory of the clock tower, I became aware that the clock tower had already become a distinctive fea- ture of the campus the world around by 1922, at which time the class of '22 had pledged $10 per member (equivalent to great- er than a 40-hour work week) to install the clock in the tower. Can Union College students of 1969- 70 show this much vision and courage in developing a student center of much less world signif- icance and of absolutely no ben- efit to me as an alumnus? (I un- derstand that I'll be asked for a donation toward the student cen- ter as an alumnus, and will I re- member Union College and what it stands for because of its much needed student center? I think I'd rather remember the clock tower.) Frankly, I don't miss the stu- dent center that was redecorated while I was a student at Union, however, I do miss the chimes which sounded every hour, on the hour. (Up here on Halloween there's nothing to listen for at 12 bells.) Is this the first time Union's enrollment has not been on a continuous rise? Tradition has hid no facts. It more than likely will increase again too. The mission field could use the money that is being spent on the new student center to better advantage, I'm quite sure. It was good to hear (even though a donation was asked for) from a friend (another route through which to be contacted for donation) at Union College and I thought the stationery was unique. I noticed it was specially printed for this cause. I'm con- tributing my humble pence hop- ing that it will contribute to the "real" needs of Union College today. Sincerely, Glenn E. Kerr, '68 Soph.

I like to go perhaps-ing around on all subjects."—Frost The cost of operating a college has increased at a greater rate than our economy would Indi- cate. Not only have colleges been faced with the same inflation as have all businesses, but they have had to upgrade once-lagging fac- ulty salaries, acquire greater amounts of equipment and facil- ities with sophistication un- known a few years ago, If they are to keep up with the stand- ards of education demanded to- day. Adventist colleges have the added burden of finding it in- creasingly difficult to operate their industries at a profitable level. At the same time, the abil- ity of students (and their par- ents) and the denomination to financially support the colleges is about reaching its limit. It is at a time such as this that ad- ministrators must take a close look at possible new sources of income. Seventh-day Adventists estab- lished their school system so that their young people might be taught the particular beliefs of their church, so that young peo- ple of like persuasion might asso- ciate together, and so the church might have a source of trained and dedicated young people to fill the needs of its world-wide work. Anything which would subvert this purpose would ne- gate the reason for a separate •educational system. To accept any financial assistance which would restrict the freedom of the church to operate Its schools ac- cording to its own standards is net acceptable. Some funds have such restrictions inherent in them as to make their accept- ance impossible. Even in those funds which do not carry objec- tionable restrictions at the out- set, there may be a latent possi- bility of unacceptable restrictions at a later date. Accepting such funds would be subjecting the college to a chance which is not worth taking. The real purpose of any finan- cial assistance to a college Is to enable it to provide the facilities and programs to its students that they have every right to expect at a price they can afford. A fi- nancial aid program which would enable a student to meet the full costs of his education at the col- lege of his choice should subject neither the student nor the col- lege to objectionable restrictions. It would permit the college to de- rive from the student's enroll- ment his share of the cost of providing his education and would at the same time place the cost to him within his own fi- nancial ability. The administrations of our colleges must bend every effort to operate as economically as possible, but in a way that will not deteriorate the academic programs. This will require more support and sacrifice on the part of the church membership. In spite of its expense, educa- tion is still the best investment— it doesn't cost, It pays. Robert J.

The first of these is a Work- shop in Church Music to be held at Atlantic City, N.J. during the General Conference Sessions. Be- tween two and three hours a day will be spent under the leader- ship of Dr. Warren Becker of An- drews University in a discussion of problems in musical standards, performance of church music, and repertoire for church organ- ists, pianists, and choral direc- tors. Prom June 29 to July 2, Mrs. Grace Nash will conduct a work- shop at Andrews University em- phasizing the Orff-Kodaly meth- ods of teaching music to elemen- tary school children. These ses- sions will be for the the class- room teacher as well as for the professional music teacher. Dr. Guy Duckworth of North- western University will be on the AU campus from July 20 to July 24 in a Class Piano Conference. The special emphasis will be the teaching of keyboard musician- ship as taught in piano classes and in private lessons. All school and private teachers of piano will be welcome. Elementary school and Acad- emy band directors are invited to the Band Director's Workshop, August 10-14, directed by Dr. Max Dalby of Utah State Univer- sity. The band directors will read much new band literature, discuss rehearsal techniques, and be able to listen to nationally famous wind instrument per- formers and teachers who will be guest clinicians during the week. These will include Mark Thomas —flute, Arthur Krehblel—French horn, James Sewrey—percussion, and Robert Mayer—oboe. The Music Camp will be con- ducted in conjunction with the Band Director's Workshop. The Music Camp Band will be direct- ed by Richard Brittain, band di- rector of Vandercook College of Music in Chicago. The Choir will be under the direction of Walter Rodby, famous choral conductor and composer who has over 100 choral compositions published; and the String Orchestra will be directed by LeRoy Peterson, vi- olin teacher and artist perform- er at Andrews University. In ad- dition to the ensembles, instruc- tion will be provided on all band and orchestral instruments plus piano, harpsichord, voice and organ. A complete recreational program will also be provided for the students. One unique feature of the Music Camp will be daily classes in Christian Living taught by theologians of Andrews Uni- versity. The camp will be admin- istered by Mr. Winston Dennis of Loma Linda Academy and Mr. William Cemer of Adelphian Academy, Holly, Michigan. University credit for those who qualify will be offered. One credit may be earned in the Church Music Workshop, and two credits in each of the other workshops. Academy and high school juniors graduating in 1971 and seniors of 1970 may also earn two univer- sity credits in music at the music camp. All workshops will be on the AU campus except the one in church music. Air conditioned housing and classrooms will be provided.

Box 516 University of Notre Dame Notre Dame, Ind. 46556 What do people think about the present dormitory rules on the Union College campus? The Student-Staff Council, in cooper- ation with the Research Office has recently completed a study to answer this question. On every college campus there is a certain amount of dissatis- faction with the rules, and Union is no exception. The Student- Staff Council felt that rather than complain about the dor- mitory policies, they would do some constructive work and de- termine whether there were feelings among the majority of students and also among the col- lege constituency which would give support to some concrete recommendations. A questionnaire was developed covering knowledge of present policies and recommendations for changes in policy. These were distributed to a random number of students, parents, and church members, and to all the members of the college board, college administration and teaching faculty. A good return was received from all groups ex- cept the church members. Many letters were received from mem- bers of this group expressing lit- tle knowledge of present college life and a hesitance to give rec- ommendations due to their feel- ing of being out of touch with current trends. During the planning sessions it was decided to limit the study to five areas of policy: evening cur- fews (weeknights and weekends), dating, use of cars, sign-out re- quirements, and separate rules for freshmen. Members of all groups were asked to state what they thought the present policies were at Union. As expected, most stu- THEN EAT dents were aware of the policies, but there was a sizable number on each question, usually ranging from 20-40%, who did not know what the present policy was. The majority of non-student groups (constituency) did not know the policies. On most ques- tions, between 50-75% did not know what the present policy is. Most of these thought they knew, or at least guessed, but did not choose the correct policy from the choices on the questionnaire. The two policies that the con- stituency were most in the dark on were that freshmen could double date without a chaperone and that the men were not re- quired to sign out of the dormi- tories in the evening. As expected, on all questions the students were In favor of more liberal policies than the constituency. There were four specific areas in which there seemed to be some agreement between the students and the constituency. In these areas, the response most chosen by both the students and constituency was the same. Agreement con- cerned the curfew time for men on weeknights, having different policies for freshmen and non- freshmen, allowing freshmen to use cars under specified circum- stances, and policies concerning women leaving the dormitories in the evening. The primary areas of consid- eration were how late in the eve- ning women should be permitted to remain out of dormitory. Twenty percent of the students responding to the questionnaire felt that upper division women should be required to be in the dorm by 9 p.m. on week night; 40% favored 10 p.m. Parents favored either 9 or 10 by 48%; 35% felt evening worship should be the curfew time. Concerning Saturday night curfew for lower class women, 60% of parents and faculty checked either 10:30 or 11 p.m. as their preference; 60% of the stu- dents preferred 11 or 12 p.m. One third of the responding parents felt that upper class women should be allowed to stay out an hour later than the lower class women or until midnight; an equal number checked 11 p.m. or "same time as lower class women." On the same question, students split their responses al- most equally between midnight and no curfew for upper class women. There was a noticeable differ- ence between the recommenda- tions of the freshmen students and non-freshmen. On most questions the freshmen did not want to have restrictions placed on them and felt that this policy should apply to all students re- gardless of class in school. The non-freshmen felt that there should be restrictions on all stu- dents in most areas and that these should be slightly more stringent for freshmen. Because about 43% of responding stu- dents were freshmen, the results for students tend to be a bit slanted toward the freshman point of view. The specific finding of this study have been presented to the Student-Staff Council and Stu- dent Affairs Committee and rec- ommendations are being pre- pared which will be submitted for consideration to the Adminis- Leon Higgs emphasizes the perils each person faces from drunken driv- trative Council. ers- Higgs won this year's temperance oratorical contest (see story, page 1).

Adoption of such a program would advance registration from the middle of September to the beginning of the month. In voting for the earlier end of the semester, students decisively rejected the idea that the vaca- tion period is needed for study purposes. The majority apparent- ly feel quite capable of complet- ing their work in the weeks be- fore vacation. Faculty members and parents were also invited to participate in the survey, and their prefer- ences closely followed the stu- dent pattern, with one exception. Although faculty members and students both slightly favored extending Christmas vacation until January 12, parents showed a small majority in favor of Jan- uary 5 as the date when students return to school. Dr. Glenn Davenport, director of college relations, said, "I'm sure that this survey will lead to positive action by the college board. There is very little doubt that this schedule will be adopted for next year." The complete student survey results appear below.

In a telephone conversation with the Clock Tower, Roy Ben- son, news director at WGTS- FM, CUC's radio station, said that the four alarm fire which ravaged the building broke out at about 9:30 p.m. on Thursday night. Despite the quick reaction of the Takoma Park fire depart- ment, which, according to Ben- son, "arrived at the scene about two minutes after the fire was spotted," the fire burned until 11:30 and flared up again in the early hours of Friday morning. The frame building, erected in 1905 and scheduled for demoli- tion in the near future, was completely gutted by the fire. Only the outside walls were left standing. Dr. Winton Beaven, president of the college, announced a "business-as-usual" policy in the aftermath of the fire. Most ad- ministrative operations and the classes formerly conducted in Columbia Hall are being trans- ferred to a new student union building on the campus. Arson was suspected as the cause of the blaze, Benson said, but so far no evidence has been turned up to substantiate the suspicion. An investigation into the cause of the fire is continu- ing. The college's student files were duplicated in Staunton, Virginia, and many of the files from Col- umbia Hall were salvageable. Certain staff members, however, Including President Beaven, lost large portions of their personal files, Benson reported. Though the contents of the building were Insured, the struc- ture itself was not. The net loss to the college is expected to run about $350,000. Most of the damage to equip- ment and facilities was water damage, Benson said. The fire department used four water can- non to battle the blaze, and in the course of the struggle poured thousands of gallons of water into the building. Among the items damaged was a leased IBM computer, which was completely ruined by the water. The CUC administration will use the new student union build- ing as temporary headquarters until a new administration build- ing can be constructed. CUC's in- debtedness for the student union, along with the losses caused by the fire, has created some finan- cial difficulties, Benson said. The library staff is presently going through the soaked admin- istration files, trying to salvage as much as possible. "Everything here is a real mess," Benson concluded. dropping Bruce Hieb's team 67- 59. Gill and Phipp each had 14 points for Randy's team, and Jim Aulick added 13 points to the victors' total. The game was strictly a two- man show for Bruce Hieb's team, as he scored 30 points and Strom contributed 20. This scoring spree was simply not enough to over- come Randy's better balanced team.
