Hare Is Honored  
At Radio Convention  
Professor Milton D. Hare, head  
of the department of physics of  
Union College spoke at the general  
session of the Second Annual Tech- 
nical Conference of the Kansas  
City section of the Institute of Ra-  il  
Milton D. Hare  
dio Engineers on Friday, Novem- 
ber 3. Professor Hare gave a paper  
on "The Developments and Appli- 
cation of Traveling Wave Tubes."  
Through the influence of Pro- 
fessor Lester M. Fields of Stanford  
University, Professor Hare was re- 
quested to speak. Since the autumn  
of 1947, Professor Hare has been  
associated with a project headed  
by Professor Field of the electron- 
ics laboratory of Stanford Univer- 
sity. This Office of Naval Research  
project deals with traveling wave  
tubes and associated problems. The  
work at Union Collere concerns  
measurements on high density elec- 
tron beams.  
The general session held in the  
morning was divided into two parts  
which included Professor Hare and  
Dr. C. N. Kimball of Midwest Re- 
search Institute of Kansas City,  
Missouri. Approximately 150 elec- 
tronics engineers from all over the  
United States attended the insti- 
tute.  
BIETZ, BECKER, BERGHERM  
APPEAR IN SYMPOSIUM  
Returning from Fall Council,  
Elder R. R. Bietz, president of the  
Southern California Conference,  
Elder Carl Becker, president of the 
Northern California Conference,  
and Elder W. H. Bergherm, di- 
rector of the Medical Cadet Corps  
overseas for the General Confer- 
ence, were speakers at a recent  
vespers service here.  
Elder Bietz, a graduate of Union  
College said, "Union College has  
helped me to understand five texts  
which are very important to me  
now. They are John 3:16, Matt.  
7:12, 2 Tim. 2:15, 2 Cor. 4:18, and  
Rev. 14:6. These contain the most  
vital spiritual values of our life to- 
day."  
Elder Becker, also a graduate of  
Union, followed with a challenge  
to the young people. He stressed  
that God wants consecrated youth  
to enter the waiting mission fields  
where the message has not yet  
penetrated.  
Elder Bergherm, the third speak- 
er, told several experiences that  
occurred while he was a chaplain  
in a Japanese prison camp. He em- 
phasized how the Holy Spirit is  
working in a mighty way and that  
by letting the Spirit fill our lives it  
will give us the power to do His  
bidding.  

Nearly five-hundred College  
View Church members participated  
in the field adventure day, "Oper- 
ation Doorbell," last Sabbath after- 
noon, and approximately 2000 
homes were contacted.  
Elder M. W. Deming, pastor of  
the church, led out in the plans  
for the undertaking. Serving as his  
assistants were: J. A. Mayer, liter-
ature, E. M. Cadwallader, territory,  
A. J. Wearner, college bands, E. R.  
Maas, community bands, and L. W.  
Welch, cars.  
Band leaders for the college  
groups were: Arthur Opp, Earnest  
Oliver, Bobby Roberts, Harry  
Sharp, Carl Heft, John O'ffill, Wes- 
ley Green, Nina Engman, Kenneth  
Eager, Andrew Colvin, Vernon  
Furgason, Gordon Mays, Don Sulli- 
van, Clifford Ortner, Orlin McLean,  
Elwood Boyd, Paul Curtis, Warren  
Zork, John Jensma, Norman Sharp,  
Thomas Thompson, Melvin Baker,  
LaVern Opp, Palmer Wick, Lor- 
raine Fuller, and Dean Culver.  
Junior, Senior Classes Eled  
Lehman and Wick  
SENIOR CLASS  
Joseph Lehman, ministerial stu- 
dent from Lincoln, was elected to  
serve as president of the senior  
class for the school year at the  
organization meeting of the group.  
"Bill," as he is known to his friends,  
was one of the nine seniors recently  
selected to be listed in "Who's  
Who." He has served as pastor for  
tho junior   jun i  	 t   c, 1.,.:i-lcnt of the  
ministerial association, pastor of the  
York church, and church elder.  
Dorothy Dixon from Portis, Kan- 
sas, is the vice-president; Joan  
Sharp from Beemer, Nebraska, the  
secretary; Jack Jester from Lincoln,  
the treasurer; Norman Doss from  
Denver, Colorado, the pastor; and  
Tommy Thompson from Lincoln,  
the sergeant-at-arms.  
The sponsors of the Senior Class  
are Drs. Ray W. Fowler and II. G.  
Reinmuth.  
Our apologies to Presi- 
dents Lehman and Wick for  
the omission of their pic-
tures. Due to mechanical  
difficulties during which one  
cut was ruined it will be nec- 
essary to omit them until a 
later  issue.  —The Editors.  
JUNIOR CLASS  
The junior class chose Palmer  
Wick as its president. Palmer, who  
claims Loveland, Colorado, as his  
home, is majoring in religion. His  
present extracurricular activities  
include the positions of advertising  
manager of the CLOCK TOWER and  
Central Union leader in the present  
campaign. Before coming to Union  
he was a paratrooper in the army  
during which time he spent two  
years in Japan.  
Other officers include: Mareta  
Jensen from Corpus Christi, Texas,  
vice-president; Beverly Blost from  
Pine City, Minnesota, secretary;  
Dean Johnson from Grass Valley,  
California, treasurer; Franklin  
Moore from Panama City, Panama,  
pastor; and Bob Britain from Lin- 
coln, sergeant-at-arms.  
Mr. Robert E. Cleveland and Mr.  
William H. Taylor are sponsors of  
the Junior Class.  

M. C. C. Director is M. V.  
Speaker  
Elder William Bergherm, who  
has charge of the Medical Cadet  
Corps overseas and has spent sev- 
eral years as a chaplain in the U.S.  
Army, brought hope and comfort to  
the young men who face induction  
next spring as he told of the way  
in which God has used war and  
those in uniform to advance His  
cause. He spoke to the Senior M.V.  
Society, Sabbath afternoon, No- 
vember 4.  
Elder Bergherm highlighted his  
talk with the story about the Ad- 
ventist church getting a start on  
the island of Guam. Adventist  
preachers and colporteurs were not  
allowed on the island, and it  
seemed as though it was impossible  
for the message to reach the in- 
habitants. But Uncle Sam sent an  
Adventist soldier to the island who  
was entirely ignorant of the fact  
that there were no Adventists there.  
Suddenly rain started pouring  
down, and a lady invited him to  
come into her house to keep from  
getting wet. When he was inside,  
he asked her where he could find  
the Adventist church. She told him  
that she had never heard of such a 
thing, asking him what they be- 
lieved. He took his Bible from his  
pocket and started teaching her.  
Today that lady is a good member  
of the Seventh-day Adventist  
church as well as a large group of  
her neighbors, and it all started  
from a G.I.'s getting caught in the  
rain.  
Seventy-five Attend  
Master Guide Rally  
The second Master Guide rally of  
the year was attended by approxi- 
mately seventy-five students Sab- 
bath afternoon, November 4.  
Music was furnished by Andrew  
Sainten on his electric guitar and  
Muriel Meister on the accordion.  
Elder Robert Osmunson, Mis- 
sionary Volunteer secretary of the  
Nebraska Conference, was guest  
speaker at the rally. He declared  
that only four per cent of the  
world's population are leaders.  
Master Guide classes train for lead- 
ership. He urged that all Seventh- 
day Adventist youth, especially col- 
lege students, do all they can to  
qualify themselves to lead others.  
Often the young people in small  
churches find it diff icult to find  
something worth while to do on  
Sabbath. A Master Guide will be  
able to direct worth-while activi- 
ties for such a group. Osmunson  
said he was pleased to find so many  
attending the Master Guide class.  
A familiar campfire scene at jun- 
ior camps was directed by Miss  
Myrtle Maxwell, third and fourth  
grade supervisor, and Everett Fish- 
er, Master Guide leader. The scene  
depicted a night's story hour around  
the campfire with Miss Maxwell  
teaching a nature lesson on insects 
to the group of children sitting  
around the fire. Among the things  
she emphasized was the fact that if  
all the people in the world could be  
placed on one side of some great  
balances, and all the world's insects  
could be placed on the other side,  
the insects would weigh the most.  
There are more insects in College  
View than people in the whole  
world, Miss Maxwell said.  

Miss Pearl L. Rees  
women at Atlantic Union College  
starting in 1917. In 1920 she be- 
came the dean of women at Union  
College, where she remained in  
that capacity until 1937, returning  
at that time to Atlantic Union Col- 
lege to spend another four years as  
dean. Then in 1941, Miss Rees was  
asked to return to Union College  
where she served faithfully until  
1948. Her most recent position was  
at Glendale Sanitarium and Hos- 
pital as dean of women for the  
nursing school.  
She now lives in Lincoln and is  
working on a handbook for deans  
that will be used in denominational  
work. In a recent chapel talk to the  
students of Union College, Miss  
Rees stressed living the Christian  
life on the campus, in Lincoln, and  
at home in such a way that the  
people of the world may see the  
Spirit of Union College and of  
Christ.

First Missionary fo China  
Tells Needs of Far East  
pp r,r   R  T .  
missionary from China with forty- 
five years of experience, spoke in  
vespers on Friday night, November  
10. He talked about what a poten- 
tial missionary should know in or- 
der to become successful and win  
souls for Christ.  
The speaker was introduced by  
his brother, Elder J. N. Anderson,  
professor emeritus of the Bible de-
partment, who has also given many  
years of his life to China.  
Elder Anderson said there are  
more than eighty mission societies  
operating in China, and that there  
are from 6,000 to 10,000 foreign  
missionaries in China during nor-
mal times.  
DOCTORAL THESIS  
PUBLISHED  
Educational Principals in the  
Writings of Ellen G. White,  the  
doctoral thesis of E. M. Cadwalla-
der, chairman of the Department  
of Education and Psychology at  
Union College, has recently been  
published in mimeographed form.  
This 508-page volume is available  
through the author. It is offered in 
two editions—a looseleaf binding  
and a regular cloth-bound volume.  
A review of the book appeared  
recently in the  True Education  
Journal.  

MISS REES HONORED  
The honor of having the title of  
Dean of Women Emeritus was  
bestowed upon Miss Pearl L. Rees,  
former dean of women of Union  
College, at the recent Fall Council  
at Grand Rapids, Michigan.  
In beginning her career, Miss  
Rees, who is well known for her  
pleasant disposition and sympa- 
thetic understanding, was dean of  

The CLOCK TOWER campaign under the leadership of Bob Raitz is  
well under way with subs pouring in from all unions.  
The Central Union "Buffs" define the meaning of central as chief.  
Webster defines chief as "the top,"  
so they can't lose. At any rate the  
WITH EMERITUS STANDING  
campaign is being pushed and  
pushed hard by its able leaders,  
Palmer Wick, Don Woodruff,  
Naomi Reynolds, and Bonnie John- 
son.  
The "Longhorns" from the South- 
west declare in their stock market  
report that "the bottom has dropped  
out—for moose that is, due un- 
doubtedly to the open season de- 
clared on all moose. Buffaloes for  
November are off, way off, com- 
pletely out of running. Longhorns,  
however are in great demand and  
will be stampeding in the lead by  
November 27." Elmer Jordan, Jim  
Forcher, Jean Rodman, and Mareta  
Jensen are determined to make  
this prediction a true one.  
Promoting the Northern Union  
"Moose" are John Ruffcorn, Merle  
Christensen, Phyllis Carlson, and  
Dale McCune. They say that there  
will be a blizzard of Northland  
subs that will freeze out all com- 
petitors. One of their slogans advo- 
cates, "Now is the time, without  
delay, to get five subs and have a  
skip day."  
Several chapels have been given  
over to the campaign leaders in  
order to prorriote letter writing  
a n d campaign spirit. Buffalo,  
Moose, or Longhorn??? Only time  
will tell!  
Are we going to reach the goal by November 27? Are  
we going to win our skip day for Christmas vacation? As yet  
these questions remain unanswered as far as the "books"  
are concerned, but in the minds of every loyal Union College  
booster the answer is a definite YES! The subs are steadily  
coming in, but the final answer will depend on YOU, the  
individual student. Have you done your share in getting that  
skip day? Thanksgiving vacation is a good time to get those 
subs while you're home, or to write letters if you're going to 
stay here at school during the holiday. Let's all get out and 
boost the CLOCK TOWER campaign. OVER THE TOP BY  
NOVEMBER 27!!  	 The Editor

THIS IS YOUR PUBLICATION  
This is YOUR paper! But is it saying what YOU want it to say?  
Is it covering the news that YOU are interested in reading? The staff  
is anxious that the publication be one that gives an unbiased and  
unprejudiced coverage of all items of interest to its readers, so we  
are inviting anyone who has any suggestions to present them to  one  
of the editors. We're especially anxious that we get news about the  
smaller events—News Notes and College Days—so a CLOCK TOWER  
box has been provided on the second floor of the administration 
building for all contributions. Has anything worthy of mention hap- 
pened to you or any of your friends? Write it up and drop it in the  
slot, and we'll give every contribution consideration. There is just  
one stipulation: the deadline for all material is the Sunday noon be- 
fore the next issue comes out. Anything that comes in later than  
that is held over for future publication. We'll be looking for YOUR  
contributions to YOUR paper!  	 V.J.  
Hospital or Home!  
Thanksgiving—yes, it's here again. Vacation . . . home . .  
pumpkin pie and all I can eat . . . free! No rising bell . . . 7:15  
worship . .. morning classes ... assignments . . . getting in at night.  
Ah, yes, on my way with not a care. Must hurry before—. My, I  
wish the roads were better so I could drive faster and get home sooner.  
Well, what's the hurry? Life's short already; why make it shorter?  
That's right. Are we all going to spend our vacation as planned,  
or will some of our number be forced to spend Thanksgiving in a  
hospital or worse? If we as students will remember to obey all the  
traffic rules as we leave for our vacation, how memorable this Thanks- 
giving will be for everybody.  
So remember, fellow traveler, that the warnings and light signals  
are for our protection and not necessarily to slow us up. Let's make it  
known that Union has safe and sane drivers.  	 E.M.

INDEPENDENCE OF PRIVATE  
COLLEGES STRESSED  
Lewisburg, Pa. (I.P. )—Declaring  
that "it would be tragic if higher  
education became completely de- 
pendent on the state," President  
Horace A. Hildreth of Bucknell  
University points out that the pres- 
ervation of private colleges will not  
he an easy task.  
"The role of the independent col- 
leges must be to do fewer things for  
smaller and more selective student  
bodies than the ever expanding tax- 
supported universities do, but to do  
those fewer things better than any- 
body else," he said.  
Turning to the subject of who  
should go to college and who 
should pay for the education, he  
emphasized that mere ability to do  
college work is not enough. "There  
must be a willingness on the part  
of the student to sacrifice and ex- 
pend energy to obtain the best the  
college has to offer," he continued.  
"There is an obligation on the  
college to screen applicants more  
carefully and also to see that what  
financial assistance is available is  
given to those who have the great- 
est ability and will pay the price in  
devotion to work."  
"We find ever increasing num- 
bers of people who are saying that  
everyone who has the abilit7 to go  
to college should be 'given a col-  

lege education. The implication is  
always that this education should  
be given at somebody else's ex- 
pense," he said.  
"I believe that there are many  
people who have the ability to go  
to college who should not do so be- 
cause they lack the proper attitude.  
Certainly they should not go at  
somebody else's expense," he re- 
marked.  
"The handout is as objectionable  
in education as in other fields," he  
added, "both from the point of view  
of getting results and destroying  
character. In our zeal to give every- 
body a higher education are we 
not limiting the best results by not  
calling for enough sacrifice from  
those who seek it?  
"In these days of old age assist- 
ance, unemployment compensation,  
and social security, all tending to  
leave a young person free to paddle  
his own canoe rather than support 
his family, is it too much to ask a  
college education be earned, rather  
than given?"  
"The question facing an inde- 
pendent college is not whether we  
shall provide mass education at a  
high level, but whether we will  
provide quality education. Inde-
pendent private colleges and par- 
ticularly the church related colleges  
are in the best position to bring 
about an increased recognition of  
the importance of moral and spir- 
itual leadership and character," Dr.  
Hildreth concluded.  

SOPHOMORE - FRESHMAN  
CLASSES ORGANIZE  
On Friday, November 10, the  
freshman and sophomore classes  
met to organize. The officers elect- 
ed to serve during the school year  
Joe Simpson  
for the sophomore class arc as fol-
lows: Joe Simpson, president; Betty  
Reynolds, vice-president; Ray Her- 
ber, secretary; Helen Stuart, trea- 
surer; and Gordon Bissell, sergant- 
at- arms. Their sponsors are Dr. D.  
M. Brown and Elder J. J. William- 
son.  
Duane Bockman  
The freshman class was unable  
to complete their election, but those  
chosen were Duane Bockman, pres- 
ident, and Jean Wilmot, vice-pres- 
ident. Elder Wallenkampf and Mr.  
Carl Watts are their sponsors.  
The Little Touches  
Sometimes they arc questions  
such as "How about a loan of five  
until payday?" Sometimes they are  
final delicate brush marks on an oil  
portrait. Sometimes they are the  
changing of words or sentences in  
a play. Sometimes they are pokes 
and pats in garden soil. Sometimes  
they are the last acts of a barber  
when working on a customer.  
Sometimes they are the powder puff  
techniques of a lady before a mir- 
ror.  
Yes, and often they are the small  
acts that are the determining fac- 
tors in a man's relationship with  
others. We all know how sensitive  
we are to the little things which  
provide the basis for impressions  
and opinions. A soiled shirt may  
completely black out pages of cre- 
dentials. A crude act may abruptly  
stop a social climber. A careless  
sentence may ruin a political cam- 
paign. A biased opinion may upset  
a sale. A questionable story may de- 
stroy an excellent speech. A  
thoughtless act may he the cause of  
an unsent invitation.  
Culture is the sum total of little  
things—little touches that are indi- 
cators of attitudes, habits, thoughts,  
and desires. One cannot present a  
claim for culture through charts,  
outlines, statistics, and character  
references. By his acts one reveals  
himself and provides the material  
for judgment.  
Build well your inner self castle  
and through the little touches your  
name will be placed high upon the  
scroll.  

Elder R. R. Bietz, president of  
the Southern California Confer- 
ence, was guest speaker at the  
eleven o'clock service in the Col- 
lege View church, November 4. In  
his sermon he outlined the task of  
today's Christians and how to ac- 
complish it.  
Elder Bietz pictured the world  
in a crippled, helpless, and dying  
situation. Most people, he said, do  
not understand the cause of the  
present world crisis.  
According to Elder Bietz, the  
world needs something other than  
"talk about peace"; it needs the  
Prince of Peace—something other  
than man's ideas; it needs God's  
ideas. The divine commission for  
Christians today is to give the  
world what it needs—the gospel of  
Jesus Christ. "Go ye therefore, and  
teach all nations .  	 ," Bietz quoted  
from Matthew 28:19.  
Elder Bietz outlined a threefold  
plan for Christians to teach all na- 
tions the message of God:  
"Live as though you  believe  
the message you have."  
"Speak as though you believe  
the message you have."  
"Work as though you believe  
the message you have."  
Student Association  
Directs Campus Picnic  
To make school life a bit more  
interesting, a fall picnic for all col- 
lege students took place on the  
campus, Monday, October 30. Class  
periods were shortened which al- 
lowed school to be dismissed at  
11:00 a.m. Miss Whitfield served an  
"extra-special" lunch which was  
eaten on the front lawn of the  
campus.  
In the afternoon students partici- 
pated in various activities which in- 
cluded baseball, football, ping- 
pong, badminton, volleyball, horse- 
shoes, tennis, and croquet.  
The beautiful weather, which  
was uncommon for October, gave  
an atmosphere of genuine pleas- 
ure. Students were overheard to  
comment, "It feels so wonderful to  
be away from routine so we can  
relax." Others said, "The Student  
Association certainly used their  
heads when they thought of this  
idea." And still others said, "I hope  
all the members of the Student As- 
sociation aren't seniors."  

r  
Author Believes That  
'World War III Is Here!'  
"World War III is here." These  
were the words of Dr. Merlin Neff,  
book editor of the Pacific Press  
Publishing Association, as he began  
his lecture Wednesday night, No- 
vember 1, to the College View  "./  
prayer meeting audience.  
Elder Neff said he was not being  
sensational; he was only being real- 
istic. "The United Nations was or- 
ganized to keep peace between the  
nations, but it has failed in what it  
set out to do," he said.  
After reviewing important world  
events during recent years, Elder  
Neff said that, like the beginning of  
World War II, international rela- 
tionships are getting strained as  
time progresses.  
Elder Neff claimed the present  
Korean situation was only another  
Communistic attempt to see how  
far it could go. "Even though we  
have crossed the 38th parallel, we  
are not through with Korea. This is 
a strange war; it is different than 
any we have ever been in before,  
but it is here now."  
Elder Neff finished his lecture by  
saying his greatest appeal was for  
Christians to help others find their  
way to God.  
w litud  
If I should try to thank you, God,  
For all life's preciousness,  
For all the blessings I have had  
To bring me happiness—  
For sunshine fair, for starlit night,  
For clouds of endless joy,  
For fragrances of nature bright,  
What means can I employ?  
For pen, nor tongue, nor poet's  
word  
Can e'er begin to state  
The things I wish to say, 0 Lord,  
All seem inadequate.  
And since you know the very  
thought  
That lies within my heart,  
Let thanks be what my thoughts  
have wrought  
Though humble be my part.

MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION  
* A greater preparation for the  
ministry was urged by Warren  
Zork and Ernest Oliver, speaking  
at the Friday night meeting of the  
Ministerial Association on Novem- 
ber 3.  
Warren Zork, whose subject was  
"The Fire Within You," stated that  
ministerial students must not un- 
derestimate their preparation which  
is just as important as being out on  
the firing line. He said every stu- 
dent needs to be fired with respon- 
sibility now and not wait till he is  
on the conference pay roll.  
Ernest Oliver, whose subject  
was "Passion for Souls," made a  
plea for more heavenly fire in the  
heart and making it our business  
to win souls for Christ.  
"To gain the zeal needed for this  
time. Christ's love must fill the  
heart. To become a mighty soul  
winner for Christ, the Holy Spirit  
must take complete possession of  
one's life," said Mr. Oliver.  
* "What time is it in your Chris- 
tian experience?" asked Norman  
Haas as he opened his discussion  
before the Ministerial Association  
meeting, Friday night, November  
10. He emphasized the fast that  
even as the disciples were left on  
this earth because there was a task  
for them to do, so we are still on  
this earth because the task has not  
been finished.  
Clyde Newmeyer, the second  
speaker of the evening, warned his  
listeners regarding the devices  
Satan uses to bring about the clown- 
fall of the Christian. He must be  
on guard at all times as "Time is  
short, and slippeth quickly away."

Needs the Prince of Peace"  

Natural Science Club Members Go On  
Excursion to Waubonsie State Park  
Sixty members of the Natural  
Science Club left Friday afternoon,  
November 10, in cars loaded with  
sleeping bags and other camping  
equipment for a two-day excursion •  
to Waubonsie State Park. Prepara-
tion for the Sabbath claimed the  
first attentions of the campers as  
they prepared the camp and laid  
in a supply of fire wood.  
Dr. D. M. Brown introduced his  
companions to the park layout  
through his orientation talk given  
during the vesper hour, followed  
by subjects of interest to every na- 
ture-lover—"Birds" a n d "Stars."  
Mrs. Jones and Bill Lehman were  
the speakers.  
"In the morning I see His face,  
in the evening His form I trace, in  
the darkness His voice I know; I  
see Jesus everywhere I go." This  
melody played by John Ruffcorn  
on his trumpet from a distance and  
followed by "Taps" bade the camp- 
ers goodnight, as they dug deeper 
into their sleeping bags, for the  
temperature was well below freez- 
ing.  
The warm stones which were put  
into the sleeping bags proved a real  
comfort—at least for several hours.  
However, Mareta Jensen's became  
almost too warm as it caught her  
sleeping bag on fire, necessitating  
that she procure another one for  
the rest of the night—that is until it  
caught fire, too.  
Early Sabbath morning the bird  
lovers went on a hike before  
breakfast.  
Ronald Cotham was in charge of  
the Sabbath School and Bill Leh- 
man was the speaker during the  
worship hour.  
Spending the day right out in  
nature made the members feel very  
close to God. Many interesting  
things were seen as they explored  
some of the unfrequented trails of  
the park.  
The next outing which is being  
planned for next spring is being  
eagerly anticipated by all.

We Thank Thee, Lord...  
BY NORVEL ROLYAT HARVSON  
It was one of those warm, sunny  
days that are typical of Indian sum- 
mer when Frank and Bill started  
on their Thanksgiving vacation.  
They had several days off from  
school, including the week-end fol- 
lowing Thanksgiving Day. Since it  
was before the last world war when  
money was not so plentiful, the  
boys, in order to reach home, had  
to hitchhike. However, for young  
fellows in their second year of col-
lege, they did not mind the incon- 
venience to which they were put.  
Sometimes they were very fortun- 
ate in getting rides from school to  
their home or vice versa.  
On this particular Thanksgiving  
week end they were happy to be  
offered a ride that took them all  
the way home. They arrived home  
safely and greeted their mother,  
who was anxiously awaiting their  
arrival. She did not like to have the  
boys hitchhike, but, since the fam- 
ily was not very well off, she could  
not do much about it. She was  
happy to have them home for  
Thanksgiving.  
During the Thanksgiving holi- 
days the boys ate all those things  
for which their mother's cooking  
was noted and then some. Of  
course, mother's cooking was al- 
ways different from the fare at  
school, so they relished the change.  
Father was glad to see them also,  
and he, in showing his pleasure at  
having them home, gave them five  
dollars apiece to spend when they  
got back to school.  
The next Sunday morning, Frank  
and Bill, intent on saving the five  
dollars that had been given each  
of them, determined to thumb a  
ride back to school. They walked  
out on the highway to a corner  
where they had always been suc- 
cessful at catching rides. Their suit- 
cases were plainly marked with the  
name of the city to which they were  
going. They hoped that they might  
catch a ride that would take them  
all the way through without a stop.  
The first ride was with an old  
farmer, who, although they did not   

know it at the time, was only "go- 
ing down the road a piece.' The  
farmer took them about fifteen  
miles and let them out in the coun- 
try where there were not too many  
opportunities for getting a ride.  
They hailed car after car, but it  
seemed as if everyone was in a  
hurry to return home from the  
Thanksgiving holidays. Frank and  
Bill were very distressed because it  
would not be long until night, and  
they were anxious to get back to 
the school before it was dark.  
At last a Dodge convertible  
slowed down as it passed them and  
stopped about a hundred yards  
down the road. Frank and Bill  
raced to take the ride. They were  
tired from standing on the side of 
the road, and they thought that  
this ride might take them to their  
destination.  
As they ran to the car, they saw  
that two men were in it.. They were  
so anxious and overjoyed to get the  
ride that they hardly noticed the  
appearance of the two men. The  
Dodge was an old model, and the  
boys were told to sit in the rumble  
seat.  
The boys stowed their suitcases  
under their feet and settled back to  
enjoy the pleasant breeze that  
swept by the convertible. The top  
of the car was down and the wind  
was strong on their faces as the  
car sped along.  
It was not long until Frank whis- 
pered to Bill: "Don't you think that  
something is wrong with this man's  
driving?"  
Bill answered excitedly, "Yes, I  
think he's drunk."  
The boys, realizing the driver of  
the car was drunk, tried to plan  
what they would do in case of an  
accident. Bill, becoming alarmed  
as the driver swerved more and  
more, said, "I think we ought to  
get out of the car, but how in the  
world will we get him to stop?"  
Frank answered, "Tell him to let  
us off in the next town."  
So Bill, summoning up all the  
courage, yelled through the wind  
at the driver: "We want to get  
off in the next town!"  
The driver took his eyes off the  
road and looked around at Bill.  
"What did you say?" he shouted, as  
the car swerved maddeningly  
down the road.  
Frank cautioned Bill: "If you  
keep talking to him, he is going to  
pile us up in a ditch somewhere.  
We ought to think about what we  
are going to do in case the car  
turns over."   

of speed. They breathed a word of  
prayer as the driver went into the  
curve. The Providential hand of  
God must have been protecting the  
boys, because the rear wheels of  
the car could not endure the strain  
of the sharp turn, and the wheels  
were wrenched off over the lug  
nuts. The car dropped down on  
the rear axle as one rear wheel left  
the car and bounded along the  
pavement and disappeared over  
the embankment. The other wheel  
went off the other side. The car  
skidded down the road, side to 
side on the axle. If the wheels had  
not been torn from the axle, the  
car would undoubtedly have  
turned over several times and  
plunged down the embankment.  
Finally the car came to a stop.  
The men in the front seat had  
sobered up completely. They con- 
gratulated each other on their tre- 
mendous luck, but Bill and Frank  
looked at each other, knowing that 
luck was not involved, but that the  
hand of God intervened between  
them and certain death.  
Frank, whose complexion was  
naturally tan, looked yellow, and  
Bill's face, ordinarily ruddy, was  
startlingly white. They both felt as  if  they were living on borrowed  
time, and they thanked God for  
their deliverance.  
fianki ,9 (Ting  
Upon this glad Thanksgiving Day,  
While in my thoughts I wend,  
My throbbing heart o'erflows with  
thanks  
Because of some dear friend.  
Then as I sit and retrospect  
To find this friend obscure,  
Who now supplies such sweet de- 
light  
I've never felt before,  
My thoughts reflect the words  
you've said  
To cheer my life along;  
The deeds you've done from day to  
day  
To help my joys prolong;  
The smiles you've shed to brighten  
life;  
Which far surpasses words, indeed,  
And exiles loneliness.  
You may not know, dear friend  
o'mine  
How much you mean to me,  
But you're to me the very thing  
That leaves are to a tree.  
So then, dear friend, a million  
thanks  
For all you've done to me;  
God bless you richly, endlessly,  
With grand prosperity.  
Claude Chan,  '49  
What Are You  Most  
Thankful  For?  
Ann Tolliver—That I can be here  
at Union.  
Norman Doss—I'm most thankful  
we still have peace in our country.  
Alvida Brand—That all my nine  
weeks exams are over.  
C. Rex Heft—I am thankful for  
answered prayer.  
Nickoli Nelsen—I am thankful for  
peace of mind and my ability to be  
pleasant.  
Lorrinda Wagner—That vacation  
is here.  
William Goble—For the Bible.  
Vernon Chase — For Christian  
parents.  
Marilyn Brown—I am thankful I  
live in a country which permits me  
to get a Christian education, and  
also that I am a Christian.  
Everett Fisher — .I am thankful  
that there is a plan whereby I  
might have eternal life, and that  
God has called me apart from the  
world to tell others of this plan.  
Kenneth Lee—I am most thank- 
ful for getting a Christian education  
and for being a Christian.  

Bill answered hurriedly, "We  
should duck down under the front  
of the rumble seat to avoid being  
killed!"  
Frank agreed that that was prob- 
ably the best plan; however, he  
told Bill to ask the driver to let 
them off in the next town. Frank 
thought that the driver would be  
able to hear Bill when they had to  
slow down to go through the small  
town ahead.  
But the driver did not slow down  
as he approached it. The two men  
in the front seat turned and  
laughed at the boys, because they  
understood all along that the  
young fellows wanted out of the  
car. One of the fellows opened a  
bottle of beer and handed it to  
the driver, who drank as he drove.  
The other one opened a bottle for  
himself and started drinking it.  

The boys realized that the men  
in the car were not going to let  
them out, that the men were pur- 
posely scaring them as much as  
they could. Every once in a while 
the two men in front turned  
around and laughed at the boys 
and took another drink from their  
bottles.  
Frank said, "There is only one  
way we will get out of this alive.  
Our Heavenly Father will protect  
us if we call upon Him!" Bill  
agreed with Frank and reminded  
him of the S curve that was not too  
far down the road.  
It seemed as if the closer the car  
got to the curve, the faster the reck- 
less driver drove. The boys, sliding  
down under the front of the rumble  
seat, prepared to protect them- 
selves as they approached the  
curve. There was a deep drainage  
ditch on one side of the curve and  
a steep bank on the other. The  
curve was very sharp and the boys  
knew that the driver could not  
make it at such an excessive rate  
George Washington has perhaps best captured and  
given words to the spirit of this day in his Thanks- 
giving proclamation of 1789.  
"Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the  
providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for  
His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor;  
and whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint Com- 
mittee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United  
States a day of Public Thanksgiving and Prayer, to be observed  
by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal  
favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an oppor- 
tunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their  
safety and happiness;"  
"Now therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the  
twenty-sixth of November next, to be devoted by the people of 
these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who  
is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that  
will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our  
sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of  
the people of this country, previous to their becoming a nation;  
for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable inter- 
positions of His providence, in the course and conclusion of the  
late war; for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty,  
which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational  
manner in which we have been enabled to establish Constitutions  
of Government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the  
national one now lately instituted; for the civil and religious  
liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of  
acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general. for 
all the great and various favors, which He has been pleased to  
confer upon us." "And, also, that we may then unite in most  
humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord  
and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national 
and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or  
private stations, to perform our several and relative duties pro- 
perly and punctually; to render our National Government a  
blessing to all people, by constantly being a government of wise  
just and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed  
and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations( es- 
pecially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them  
with good governments, peace and concord; to promote the  
knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the  
inc rea,   of science, among them and us; and generally, to grant  
unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as Hc  
alone knows to be best."

OPEN NIGHT PARTIES NEWS NOTES  FAMIDIUS UILUIPS  
HAYRIDE  
"Giddy-up, Clippity Clop, Clip- 
pity Clop, whoa!" A team and wag- 
on was the means of transportation  
Saturday night, November 11, for  
this particular group of Unionites.  
After winding their way through  
the streets of Lincoln, the group  
came back to the college cafeteria  
where they found waffles and cocoa  
awaiting them. After eating, every- 
one played games. Elder and Mrs. 
J. J. Williamson accompanied the  
party which included: Karl Whee- 
ler, Blanche Schick, David Freder- 
ick, Beverly Canine, Ray Hymer,  
Fern Nelson, Ray Herber, Lovina  
Tibbets, Bob Rait7, Lois Johnson,  
and Nilda Sherman. The group  
gives the credit for such good food  
to Mr. and Mrs. Leo Herber.  
PIERSONS ENTERTAIN  
Grace Robinson, Muriel Meister,  
Fern Pierson, Gerald Healzer, Rus- 
sell Hines, Dwight Taylor, Tedd  
Snyder, Wesley Green, and Mr.  
and Mrs. Gene Sorenson, were  
those present at the home of Mr.  
and Mrs. George Pierson. Every  
one had a lively evening playing  
"Fruit Basket Upset," "Charades,"  
and other games. Ice cream and  
cookies were served to bring an  
enjoyable evening to a close.  
POPPER BREAKS, POPCORN  
F LYS  
Betty Jo Coddington, jack Chris- 
tenson, Betty Marlys Horn, and  
Leon Kurtz had their party in the  
kitchenette. They popped corn, had  
ginger-ale, and enjoyed a race be- 
tween the fellows to see who could  
eat the most popcorn. It was hard  
to tell who spilled the most pop- 
corn on the floor—the fellows or  
the popper. It seems that the lid of 
the popper came off several times,  
letting the popcorn fly in all direc- 
tions. Betty Jo's hobby is collecting  
short stories, so she read several of  
them by candle-light.  
STUDENTS IN MAZE AT MAYS  
Prizes were won at the home of  
Mr. and Mrs. Gordon B. Mays for  
being able to identify objects that  
were passed around in the dark.  
After trying their hand at this and  
other games, such as "Buzz" and  
"Charades," everyone gathered  
around and ate refreshments of  
sandwiches, Postum, cake, and ice  
cream. A lively game of "Pass the  
Scissors" ended a very enjoyable  
evening for Richard Swena, Shirley  
Duren, Mardian Blair, Marilyn  
Dart, Rex English, Edwina Facun- 
dus, Laurie McLaughlin, Franklin  
Dupper, Clifton Taylor, Bill Mc- 
Laughlin, Mr. and Mrs. Robinson, 
and Mr. and Mrs. Mays.  
GRAB A SPOON!  
Who's a "pig"? George Kypri- 
dakis, Doris Dygert, Don Wood- 
ruff, Velma Johnson, Lois Dygert,  
or Sterling Wallace might know  
because that's the game they  
played at Mr. and Mrs. Melvin  
Baker's home. After playing games  
they had refreshments of cheese  
sandwiches, cocoa with marsh- 
mallows, popcorn, peanuts, and  
apples.  
PARTY FOR NINE  
Mary Day, Jean Wilmot, Doris  
White, Elnita Johnson, Archie Huff,  
Norman Prussia, and Merle Chris- 
tensen spent Saturday evening at 
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jay John- 
son. Several games were played,  
and cake and ice cream were  
served.  
"SHARP" PARTY  
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sharp  
showed motion pictures of their  
recent honeymoon trip to Norman  
Sharp, Virginia Fenton, Joan Sharp,  
Gordon Bissell, and Jean Sharp.  
Afterwards all ate grilled cheese  
sandwiches, popcorn, cookies, and  
home-made ice cream. The party  
was held at the home of Mr. and  
Mrs. Harry Sharp.  
GUEST SERVES AS COOK  
Vernus Shecldy, Einar Berlin,  
Naomi Reynolds, and Ellis Olson  
were those present at the home of  
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Quance.  
"Pit" and "Touring" were played.  
We hear that Einar cooked the  
food, but everyone still looks hale  
and hearty, so it must have been  
pretty good.  

BEYERS ENTERTAIN  
Charles G. Davis, Ruth Doggett,  
Lewis Brand, and Eula Mae Lind- 
quist visited at the home of Mr. and  
Mrs. Darrell Beyer on open night.  
Games including "Pit" and "Twenty  
Questions" were played. Toasted  
cheese sandwiches, cake, root beer,  
and cider made the evening a com- 
plete success.  
SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY  
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Hinton had a  
surprise birthday party for Mrs.  
Hinton's sister, Marjorie Newmyer  
with Irene Denny, Clara Mae  
Campbell, Velma Lancaster, Bar- 
bara Cameron, Marion Hanson,  
Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Newmyer,  
George Newmyer, and Mr. and  
Mrs. Arthur Loignon present.  
Games including "Pig" and "Con-

the remaining part of the evening.  
AT THE NORMAN HAAS HOME  
Mr. and Mrs. Norman Haas enter- 
tained a small group in their home  
on Saturday night. After listening  
to the radio and playing games,

time.  
BRINLEY FETED  
"Surprise! Surprise!" Mary Ann  
Brinley did not know the party  
in the library was in honor of her  
birthday. Those who were there to  
join with Mary Ann in playing  
"Follow the Leader," "Who's Next,"

Fudge, popcorn, punch, and ice  
cream were the refreshments  
served to Melvin Lyon, Betty Ger- 
main, Clive Johnston, Sandra  
Prange, James Hornbacher, and

Smith had a party in the faculty  
room of the library. "Pig," "Fruit  
Basket Up-set," and table games  
were played. Refreshments of cake,  
candy, and punch made the eve- 
ning complete.  
TACKY PARTY  
If you could have peeked through  
the window of Engel Hall on open  
night, you would have thought  
some people, judging from appear- 
ance, were sacrificing their last pen- 
nies for an education. As it was a  
- hard times" party, the guests, Ar- 
dythe Juhl, Virginia Winn, Beatrice  
Hartwell, Beverly McCown, A. J.  
Bennett , William Neptune, Frances  
Sundine, Warren Hallock, Marvin  
Peterson, and Floyd Vipond, came  
dressed in old clothes. Games were  
played and refreshments of dough- 
nuts, cookies, and punch were  
served. Mr. and Mrs. George Burg  
were the chaperons.   

Dr. E. B. Ogden and several  
students spent the week end at  
Maplewood Academy in Minnesota.  
Alice Tyler, Bergitta Peterson, Lo- 
vina Tibbets, Velma Johnson, Nor- 
man Doss, and Gerry Thompson  
assisted with the meetings that the  
group held.  
In the interest of public welfare,  
the Student Association sponsored  
the Community Chest drive at  
Union College. The students were  
given an opportunity in their chapel  
exercises, October 31 and Novem- 
ber 1, to participate in this impor- 
tant event. The faculty and students  
reached an amount of $159.81,  
which exceeded the goal by 25 per  
cent.  
Miss Mercedes England, a for- 
mer Union College student, will  
leave the States early in December  
to accept an appointment as cash- 
ier-accountant in the Columbia- 
Venezuela mission.  
Several members of the depart- 
ment of education have been  
attending elementary teachers' in- 
stitutes as follows: Miss Myrtle  
Maxwell, the Minnesota Institute,  
October 8 to 10; Mrs. Winnie Tur- 
ner, the Kansas Teachers' Institute  
at Wichita, November 2 and 3; Dr.

President and Mrs. Hartman  
visited Sunnydale Academy the  
week end of November 10. With  
them were Dorothy and Kay Dixon,  
Ann Hazelton, and Mr. and Mrs.  
Wilbert Dale. The group was given  
charge of all the week end meet- 
ings.  
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Davis of  
Manhattan, Kansas, were in College  
View the first week end of Novem- 
ber visiting their son, Charles E.

Charles Davis and Paul Penno  
appeared with the Nebraska Uni- 
versity Symphony Orchestra in a  
concert on Sunday, November 12.  
The orchestra was conducted by  
Emanuel Wishnow and the visiting  
artist was Ossy Renardy, violinist.  
Many former Union College  
students and graduates attended  
the teacher's institute for the  
church school teachers of Iowa and  
South Dakota held in Sioux City,  
Iowa, recently. Paul Whitlow, '39,  
acted as moderator. Former stu- 
dents and graduates included:  
E. A. Robertson, '34, H. R. Keh- 
ney, '36, 0. C. Durham, '18,  
( author of "Through My Binocu- 
lars") M. E. Smith, '30, Mrs.

Van Horn.  
The voices of twelve students  
from Kansas City were recorded by  
Professor Milton D. Hare and taken  
to the Central Church on his visit  
to Kansas City, November 4.  
During the Missionary Volunteer  
meeting the recordings were played  
for parents and friends. Professor  
Hare then gave opportunity for the  
church members to send their  
greetings back to Union to the stu- 
dents. Elder Charles Keymer pre- 
sided as master of ceremonies while  
Professor Hare recorded their  
voices. Many of them expressed  
their appreciation for his thought- 
fulness.  
President and Mrs. Harvey C.  
Hartman visited the Wichita church  
and LaCrosse, Kansas last week  
encl. With them were: Dorothy and  
Kay Dixon, Ann Hazelton, and Mr.  
and Mrs. Wilbert Dale.  

AGRICULTURE  
The Union College Agriculture  
Club met Monday night, October  
30, to view a motion picture,  
"Feeding Farm Animals." The Ag  
Club will meet every fourth Mon- 
day night for the remainder of the  
school year.  
Officers presiding at the meeting  
were John Haffner, president, and  
Bill Goble, secretary-treasurer.  
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS  
Dr. George Underwood was  
IRC's guest speaker for club day  
November 3. His topic was "Japan- 
ese Balloons and Their Use During  
World War II." He explained how  
they were operated and how they  
were made and equipped. The fact  
that most of these balloons landed  
along the western coastal states was  
kept entirely confidential until the  
lives of the people were endan- 
gered, as each balloon held a bomb  
that was very easily exploded. Dr.  
Underwood examined many of  
these balloons during the war and  
had a number of parts from them  
to display to the group.  
IRC's club officers for 1950 are:  
President  	 Charles Green  
Vice-president  	 Ed Macomber  
Secretary  	 Virginia Reynolds  
Treasurer _  	 Ernie Phillips  
Publicity Manager Keith Wiseman  
Chairman of Program  
Committee__ Lincoln Underwood  
A replica of official registration  
for voting was sponsored by the  
International Relations Club, No- 
vember 1 and 2, to determine the  
political views of the school and to  
stimulate interest in national polit- 
ical tendencies. The results showed  
that out of the 356 registered, 57  
per cent were Republicans and 43 
per cent Democrats.  
KAPPA THETA  
Vice-president Irma Heiser pre- 
sided over the Kappa Theta meet- 
ing of November 9. The decision  
was made that each village girl  
who applies for membership with  
Kappa Theta will be considered  
separately and will be either ac- 
cepted or rejected as determined  
by the members of the club.  
Under the direction of Joyce  
Spears, cultural secretary, a skit  
was presented illustrating the  
change in the life of a new student  
under the influence of her Christian  
associates. The leading role was  
portrayed by Muriel Meister and  
the script was read by Joyce Spears.  
SIGMA IOTA KAPPA  
Two films were shown during  
the November 9 meeting of Sigma  
Iota Kappa. They were "The Role  
of the Navy in World War II" and  
a documentary historical film of  
the Lewis and Clark Expedition of  
1804 to explore the newly acquired  
Louisiana Territory.  
TEACHERS OF  
TOMORROW  
On November 3 the Teachers of  
Tomorrow Club met for the first  
time as a group during the present  
school year. The sponsor, Dr. E. M.  
Cadwallader, told them that they  
would spend the first period in  
choosing officers for the club. The  
results of the election are as fol- 
lows:  
President 	 .Kenneth Kaiser  
Vice-president ... _. Nina Engman  
Secretary   	 Beverly McCown  
SHINING LIGHTS  
Miss Mazie Herin, the club's  
sponsor, showed colored slides of  
the Boulder and Porter Sanitariums  
at the November meeting. After  
seeing these pictures, the members  
are more anxious than ever to enter  
the clinical division.  
This year the Union College  
School of Nursing plans to become  
a member of the Nebraska State 
Nurses' Association.  
The officers for the first semester  
are as follows:  
President  	 Shirley Duren  
Vice-president ..___.._...Dorothy Hill  
Secretary-treasurer  
	 Blanche Schick

MU EPSILON DELTA  
Dr. Harold Shryock, dean of the  
College of Medical Evangelists,  
was the guest speaker for the Pre- 
Med Club Monday night, Novem- 
ber 13. The main topic of his talk  
was on medical education and 
what the different possibilities are.  
Recently he attended a meeting  
in New York for the deans of all  
medical colleges, and their main  
problem was found to be the draft  
question. As the result of the con- 
vention a document was submitted  
suggesting draft revisions. A plan  
is being provided whereby students  
entering college to take the pre-med  
course will be given a test to see if  
they are adapted for the course.  
Dr. Shryock gave some interest- 
ing data on the number of appli- 
cants that applied for the medical  
colleges last spring. From the  
eighty colleges where pre-meds  
may receive their training there  
were 22,000 applications, 7,253 of  
whom were accepted. On the  
average, 16 per cent of this number  
drop out before the end of the  
year. In C.M.E. this rate is 5 per  
cent.  
Each year the admissions com- 
mittee of C.M.E. convenes and  
selects from the applicants of our  
eight colleges the students who  
will be accepted for medical school  
the coming fall. The dean has con-
tact with the pre-med students be- 
ginning with the first year, and as a  
result he can tell the student their  
relative chances for entering and  
give the student some helpful in- 
formation. A student must have a  
1.5 grade point average of science  
and non-science separately. Other  
qualifications the committee works  
on are: status in the college, loyal- 
ty, letters of recommendation,  
score on the medical admissions  
test taken during the senior year,  
active cooperation with the faculty, 
and a commendable spiritual atti- 
tude. Another very important as- 
pect is the student's ability to take  
responsibility and leadership in  
important positions. As a result of  
t h e admissions committee of  
C.M.E., ninety-seven are accepted  
each year.  
The remainder of the meeting  
was devoted to individual ques- 
tions from the group.  
SPEECH  
Elder Williamson, instructor in  
evangelism and speech, acted _as  
chairman during the organization  
meeting of the Speech Club which  
was held November 3. The follow- 
ing officers were elected:  
Mark Dickinson, president  
Perry Pederson, vice-president  
William Hinton, publicity sec-  
retary  
Ann Hazelton, cultural secretary  
Eula Mae Lindquist, secretary- 
treasurer  
Don Sullivan, program chairman  
Lloyd Austin, parliamentarian  
Naomi Hopkins, reporter  
It was unanimously voted that  
Elder Williamson and Mrs. Fowler  
be co-sponsors of the club.  
BUSINESS  
"Keys to Electri-conomy" was  
the title of the film shown at the  
Business Club meeting on Novem- 
ber 3. The picture humorously por- 
trayed the advantages of modern  
business machines in a typical  
office setting.  
John Ruffcorn officiated during  
the election of the officers for this  
semester. Due to the shortage of  
time, only two were elected. They  
were: Rex Walters, president, and  
Velma Holder, secretary.  
HOME ECONOMICS  
The Home Economics Club held  
its second meeting on November 3  
in the home economics department.  
Discussing club business matters  
and reading the club constitution  
occupied the first part of the meet- 
ing. During the remaining time  
games were played, two Thanks-
giving poems and a story were read,  
and refreshments were served.  
The members of the club have  
elected the following to serve as  
officers for the first semester.  
President  	 Carol Ellis  
Vice-president  	  Betty Hopkins  
Treasurer  	 Marilyn Berner  
Secretary  	 Roberta Blum

CLOCK TOWER, NOVEMBER 22, 1950  	 5  
•  "The Myrtles  
11  
"If you call everybody Myrtle"  
And everybody calls you "Myrtle,"  
too,  
It's just a game we're playin'."  
Perhaps you do not know Myr- 
tle's background, but she has been  
on the campus of Union College  
for three "generations" and has  
brought a host of descendants.  
The Myrtles first came to this  
campus in 1947. They are com- 
monly known as Joyce and Joan  
Leonhardt. Every greeting seemed  
to be "Hi, Myrtle," or "Hurry Myr-
tle," or often in the privacy of their  
room it was "Pick up your clothes,  
Myrtle," or "Get ready for bed,  
Myrtle; the lights are going out in  
a minute." Hence, they received  
the official title, "The Myrtles."  
The following generation (1948)  
several Myrtles were adopted into  
this family. These included Deloris  
Christenson, Carolyn Grubbs, Wil-
ma Jean Conquest ( who since this  
time has become Mrs. Bud Meric- 
kel), Juanita Waugh, Marie Dow- 
ney, and Eloise Tyrer. "In these  
days," the title "Myrtle" stood for  
the non-gossipers. The Myrtles  
boldly upheld their standards and 
never were heard to say anything  
behind anyone's back unless it was  
something good. (Usually it was  
rea-1-1-y good!)  
By the following year Myrtle  
Conquest and Myrtle Grubbs un- 
dertook the responsibility of school  
teachers while Myrtle Downey and  
Myrtle Waugh skipped off to  
Boulder to find their places among  
the sophomore nurses. This left the  
original Myrtles Christenson and  
Tyrer to carry on the title of Myrtle  
to the next generation which they  
did without hesitation.  
Anyone who rooms with a NIyr- 
tle automatically becomes a Myr-
tle, too. Of course, Alta Bassham  
became a Myrtle in this way be- 
cause she roomed with Deloris  
Christenson, but does anyone  
know if Richard Randolph has be- 
come a "Myrtle" since Alta Bass- 
ham has become Mrs. Randolph?  
During the school term of 1949  
several girls who found themselves  
confined to the infirmary might  
have found it much more lonely  
had it not been for the frequent  
visits of the Myrtles. Thus a few  
more Myrtles, Helen Stewart, Ann  
Toliver, and Martha Shelton, were  
added to the family. Each Myrtle  
proudly bears the title and takes  
the responsibility of spreading it  
to the next generation.  
Not to be forgotten are Eunice  
Olson, Betty Larson, Bebe Kal- 
dahl, Virginia Fenton, Donna Rae  
Bidwell, and Lillian Vreine, who  
became members of this noble  
family during this same year.  
Since Myrtle Conquest has be- 
come Mrs. Merickel she is living in  
Mapleton, Minnesota. D el or i s  
Christenson is working in Des  
Moines, Iowa, while Myrtles Tyrer  
and Larson are teaching school.  
Some of the Myrtles have slipped  
out of sight for a while but they  
are undoubtedly loyal to their  
titles.  
The present school year brought  
the return of a few Myrtles to  
North Hall. The title travels like  
wildfire and although nearly every- 
one in North Hall this year is  
Myrtle, Norma Miller and Billie  
Wright are among the special  
Myrtles of "this" generation. Billie  
doesn't appreciate the name "Myr- 
tle" but she does appreciate the  
sentiment behind it.  
It does come in handy when you  
need some one right away. All you  
have to do is yell for Myrtle and  
she is there with bells ringing.  
An offspring of the Myrtle fam- 
ily is the Josephine family who  
occupy the south side of North Hall.  
Undoubtedly this family will grow  
rapidly until there will only he  
too names, besides Mrs. Jones', for  
the fellows of South Hall to re- 
member. However, this might be  
confusing, but very amusing you  
can be sure, particularly on Satur- 
day night.  
Just in case you are wondering  
who it is that has recorded this  
history, it is Myrtle.  
It is a pleasant thought that when  
you help a fellow up a steep hill,  
you  get  nearer the top yourself.  

PRETTY SHARP (Jean)  
COLLUM (Harold)  
By  CAROL GRUBBS  
After the Summers (Isabelle)  
over students come all the way  
from the far 'West (William) to  
places even farther than Britain  
(Bob) to enter Union College.  
They Dart (Marilyn) from Hill  
(Dorothy) and Dale (Wilbert),  
Towne (Carl) and country; but as  
yet no one has come from the Moon  
(Allan) or Neptune (William).  
Some came by Day ( Mary), while  
others came by Knight, (Eugene).  
Some drove their Austin (Lloyd);  
some came by train or bus while 
still others merely Strode ( Frank)  
from the near-by Rhodes (Larry)  
in the village and have traveled  
them Dealy (Carolyn) ever since.  
It's hard to tell which state sends  
the Most (Dorothy) students, but  
all have come to the Wright (Billie)  
place. Many are the Greene  
(Charles) freshmen who soon  
change their colors as they get ac- 
quainted a n d discover Moore  
(Frank) about the rules and regu- 
lations. However, it takes an inti- 
mate Friend (Leland) to put some  
wise, but all is Bliss (Betty) when  
the right Guy ( Jane) comes along.  
In some cases it doesn't take long  
for a striking Courtney (Bill)-ship  
to be in full swing.  
For those who are too Eager  
(Kenneth) it takes more than the  
first Bill (McLaughlin), which  
amounts to well over a Nickel  
( June)—and that's no Lyon ( Mel- 
vin )—to settle some W i s e man  
(Keith).  
Sometimes it takes more than a  
nine-weeks English (Rex) test to  
Marcum (Jessie) down. However,  
the deans can Cook (Rosebud) 
their goose by sending them to their  
Chambers ( Mary) to look at noth- 
ing but the Wall (Verdell). This is  
usually the Case ( Marvin) after  
they have been on the Green ( Al- 
berta) carpet. Since there is noth- 
ing to do but Waite ( Marvin) for  
this DeLay (Fred) both must be  
patient and not get in a Huff (Art)  
over it  but  simply. "keep your Chin  
(Rose) up."  
Somehow its harder to Reid  
(George) lessons and it isn't know- 
ledge that Spears (Joyce) his heart.  
She Saunders ( Mabel) through the  
Hall (Pearl) while he has visions  
of Graves (Clifford) since he can- 
not see Herr (Lloyd). In fact, many  
students are in sympathy over their  
Pickel (Harriet).  
At least the Horn (Betty Marlys)  
seems to Blair ( Mardian) and faces  
Beem ( Jerry); walks seems to shine  
like Glass (Hallie ); and the wor- 
ship Bell (Bill) can scarcely be  
heard, because the sentence has  
passed. No sooner had the time  
dragged by than Downey (Marie)  
came to seek his lady fair. No one  
needs to Crane (John) his neck as 
he Lenz (Bette Jewell) his hand to  
assist her. He has told the faculty  
—in his Longhorn, Texas accent,  
"Sirs," he said, "I believe you have  
been Abel (Harlyn) to Pearce ( Jo)  
my brain and Pound (Bob) into it  
a lesson that I shall never forget  
until next spring."  
A Scotchman heard of an Anti- 
Tipping Society and made applica- 
tion for membership. When told  
that the dues were 25 cents a year  
he changed his mind about joining,  
saying, "It's cheaper to go on tip- 
ping."  
The absent-minded professor  
drove up to the door of his garage,  
looked inside, blinked, and then  
leaped back into his car and drove  
at breakneck speed to the police  
station. "Sergeant!" he gasped, "My  
car's been stolen!"

Whether the student desires per- 
sonal enrichment or aspires to high  
professional attainment, biology  
furnishes one of the broadest fields  
from which to choose. There is an  
impelling attraction in learning  
about living things. For the student  
to understand nature and natural  
law and to learn something of the  
history of biology and its achieve- 
ments is to be motivated to become  
a part of that history and to achieve  
for himself and others. The biology  
courses are , aimed to stress scien- 
tific methods and to discipline the 
mind in rational and logical think- 
ing. Along with the teacher the  
student learns to appreciate the  
mystery of life, while his attention  
is turned to the Author of Life.  
In the past almost every grad- 
uate of a denominational school  
was assured a position in the organ- 
ized work. Students aspiring to be  
professional wage earners were  
not hindered in their plans. The  
situation that exists at the present  
time is somewhat different. Con- 
ditions brought about by world  
affairs have made it impossible for  
the denomination to place all  
graduates. Professional schools are  
able to accept only a limited num- 
ber of students. This is not an in- 
surmountable barrier for a student  
of biology. Opportunities do exist  
for a Seventh-day Adventist in the 
field of biology. In addition to the  
teaching profession, opportunities  
exist in the U.S. Government for  
students trained in bacteriology,  
botany, conservation, entomology,  
forestry, horticulture, nutrition,  
plant pathology, parasitology, phar- 
macology, and zoology. In the  
fields of soil conservation, forest  
conservation, and animal conserva- 
tion, men and women trained in  
zoology and botany are needed.  
Trained bacteriologists may find  
openings in local, state, or federal  
health agencies.  
The department of biology be- 
lieves that in order for students to  
enjoy their subjects and to be in- 
terested in them, efficient and ade- 
quate equipment must be available  
at all times. Often valuable time is  
lost by the students and teachers  
in dealing with some mere mechan-
ical difficulty that could be reme- 
died only by new parts or entirely  
new equipment. In keeping with  
this idea, the department has or- 
dered twenty-eight new three  
power objective microscopes for  
the bacteriology laboratory. When  
these scopes arrive they will be  
equipped with mechanical stages.  
Additional dissecting scopes have  
been ordered also. New slide   

boxes, which are large enough to  
contain fifty slides, have been ob - 
tained for the botany laboratory.  
Distribution boxes have been  
placed in the' northwestern corner  
of the hallway to eliminate the  
need to use valuable class time in  
the distribution of graded papers  
and lab manuals. A new sink has  
been installed in the stock room.  
Dissecting boards, to be used in  
protecting the tables, have been  
available for physiology and ana- 
tomy as well as for comparative  
anatomy students for their use  
when dissecting cats. Other items  
of equipment have been received  
and are now being used in the  
successful completion of the var- 
ious experiments necessary to per- 
form in this field of learning.  
At the present time eleven stu- 
dents are working in the depart- 
ment, eight of whom are aiding the 
three teachers as lab assistants in 
the following courses: introduction  
to botany, physiology and ana- 
tohy, and advanced botany. This  
policy gives the individuals who  
are lab assistants aid not only in  
defraying their expenses, but also  
in giving them valuable experience  
and broadening their knowledge of  
the subject in which they are inter- 
ested.  
About 225 students are pursuing  
courses in the department of biol- 
ogy. In addition to the course men- 
tioned above, instruction is being  
given in genetics, parasitology, and  
microtechnique. Of those students  
that are majoring in biology seven-
teen are seniors, fourteen juniors,  
sixteen sophomores, and seven  
freshmen.  
For a major in biology specific  
courses are now required with  
additional study in the fields of  
chemistry and physics.

Across from Campus  

Excitement filled the women's  
dormitory as rumors of falling snow  
spread from room to room last  
Sunday night. However, it proved  
to be more than just a rumor. Some  
students saw for the first time in  
their lives a soft blanket of snow  
across the campus. Typical of Ne- 
braska weather, students enjoyed a  
picnic on the lawn one day, then a  
few days later, out came scarfs,  
winter coats, and mittens.  
When the news of snow got  
around, Shirley Krupsky flew up to  
Sumie Umoto, who is from Hawaii,  
and broke the glad tidings. They  
raced downstairs to the second floor  
veranda and Sumie experienced  
something very new and exciting.  
Girls questioned Sumi about her  
opinion of the snow and she replied,  
"It hit me right in the face!" Later  
that evening Sumie busied herself  
by sewing in an inner lining for a  
coat and getting her boots in readi- 
ness for the following day.  
However, Sumie is not the only  
one at Union who had not seen  
snow before. Muriel Meister, who  
is from Florida, was overhead to  
say, "I'm freezing, and this is the  
heaviest coat I have."  
Students Organize  
Volley Ball Teams  
Ten teams have been formed  
with eight men to a team. Each  
team will have a chance to play all  
organized teams during the season.  
The time set for the playing  
of games is Wednesday nights.  
Three courts will be used in the  
gym with three games playing at  
7:30 and two games at 8:45, giving  
each team a chance to play.  
Realizing the need for organized  
recreation, the college carefully su- 
pervises good, clean sports played  
within the school. At the beginning  
of the year touch football is played,  
followed by volleyball, basketball,  
and basketball respectively. This  
tends to develop a better school  
spirit and relieve the monotony of 
school life.  
It is said a wife with horse sense  
never becomes a nag.  
No man is too big to be kind

On Kansas Day At Union  
November 17 was Kansas day on  
the campus. Each student from  
Kansas wore a "sunflower" in his 
lapel. The chapel program was  
under the direction of Professor  
0. L. Heinrich, principal of Enter- 
prise Academy, master of cere- 
monies.  
The audience was taken on an  
imaginary trip across Kansas in a  
musical narrative given by Mr.  
Francis Knittel. Elder D. R. Rees  
then told of how many workers  
of the Kansas Conference were  
graduates of Union. Each of their  
names were printed on cards  
which were displayed by this  
year's students from Kansas. These  
cards formed three rows across the  
front of the gymnasium.  
At the close of the program Pres- 
ident Hartman informed the aud-
ience that December 8 will be Mis- 
souri day at the college.  
* The election of officers and or- 
ganization of the men's volleyball  
teams was accomplished Tuesday  
evening, November 7.  
The officers were elected for the  
purpose of organizing the sched- 
ules and stimulating an interest in  
volleyball. The president of the  
teams is Earnest Van Scoy, assisted  
by Duane Higgins. Richard Scott  
is the secretary with Howard Runck  
acting as publicity agent.  
It is amazing how much God can  
accomplish through an imperfect  
person who has put all his imper- 
fections completely at God's dispos-

North Hall  
So you're looking for some fun?  
Well, high up on south fifth of  
North Hall live two very lively  
people who can furnish you with  
entertainment, day and night.  
Perhaps the crisp Colorado air  
is responsible for their wit and  
energy, or it could be that these  
talents were just born in them.  
Either way, they have charms that  
are like a magnet and will draw  
you to them in such a way that all  
the cares of the world will dis- 
appear.  
You will find the older and taller  
of the two is planning to become  
a nurse and the other a medical  
doctor. Both are lovers of music  
and each is in the U.C. band, the  
former playing the bass clarinet  
and the latter the flute. The point  
which has about the greatest effect  
on their happiness as roommates is  
their common interest and ability  
—talking. This might be called a  
favorite vocation, hobby, or pas- 
time; just ask the other occupants  
of the fifth floor penthouse.  
Good fortune made it possible  
for them to meet last year at Cam- 
pion Academy where they were  
enrolled as seniors. During that  
year a friendship began which all  
of us can enjoy. You just join them  
sometime when they are on one of  
their escapades or during one of  
their conversations. They can make  
you happy to be alive; they can  
make you laugh, and they can  
"thrill and chill you a little."  
To describe these roommates  
individually is a difficult task, for  
both girls are incomprehensible at  
times, making it impossible to  
accurately portray them.  
The home of Marilyn Dart( the  
flutist) is in Denver, Colorado. She  
came to Union because of its out- 
standing science department, for 
she is majoring in chemistry. You  
can tell by talking with her that  
she is a scientific person. Listen to  
her tell a story; every detail is  
accurately organized and told. She  
takes great pride in stating pure  
facts, but people, who over em- 
phasize facts are her pet peeves.  
When these peeves rouse her  
wrath, shell come forth with  
strong words. Yet on the other  
hand. she'll "give the shirt off her  
back" to those who she feels are  
worthy. Her winnino smile you'll  
find warming, and like her room-

mate, she has the "do unto others"  
attitude that all true Christians  
have.  
From La Junta, Colorado, comes  
the other conversational genius,  
Bette Jewell Lenz. All people who  
come in contact with her are  
charmed by her vibrant personality  
and bounding air. She is a person  
who loves the beauty that has been  
provided for her in the great out  
of doors, and oftentimes you'll  
find her on an early morning walk  
or an afternoon stroll in the soft  
breezes. Better still, she might be  
sketching or painting a scene that  
particularly attracts her attention.  
Since early childhood she has  
had the secret ambition to be a  
medical missionary and is working  
toward that end today.  
Bette and Marilyn are just a  
pair of roommates, typical of many  
others in North Hall with high  
ideals and standards.  
Castle  
Living way up on the fifth floor  
in the "castle" are the "tall and  
the short" of the campus. These  
roommates who are well known for  
their friendly smiles, came to Union 
this year after being graduated  
from Southwestern Junior College  
at Keene, Texas.  
The "short" of the pair is Frank  
Moore, a junior theology major  
from Panama City, Panama.  
Frank with his three sisters, who  
are at the present time enrolled at  
Southwestern Junior College, came  
to the States from Panama where 
their father is the industrial super- 
intendent of the Panama Indus- 
trial Academy.  
Since Frank has been in this  
country, he has spent several sum- 
mers doing colporteur work among  
the Spanish-speaking people of  
New Mexico and Texas.  
He is looking forward to being  
a dean of men, and he is now ob- 
taining experience along this line  
as "King of the Castle."  
It is said that underclassmen  
look up to the seniors, but that is  
not entirely true this year because  
the seniors have to look up to a  
junior.  
He is the the "tall" of the pair,  
who is six feet five and a half inches  
tall. He comes from Bristow, Okla- 
homa. He began to compete for  
height in the spring of 1929 and at  
the age of seven started his student  
career. In 1946 he enrolled in  
Southwestern Junior College in  
Keene, Texas, where he spent the  
next four years.  
During his junior and senior  
years in Keene, George was an  
active leader in extra-curricular  
activities and at the time of grad- 
uation he received his diploma  
with high honors.  
George has the ambition of be- 
coming a dean of men. He is inter- 
ested in music and enjoys singing.  
His major field is history, but his  
friends appreciate his knowledge  
of mathematics.  
The bigger a man's head gets,  
the easier it is to fill his shoes.  

Book Reviews  
The bookshelves of new books in  
the library offer a facinating diver- 
sion from routine studies and a  
chance for broadening your back- 
ground pleasantly. The following  
are reviews of several of these  
books.  
Windows Open To the World  
by Dorothy Gladys Spicer.  
This book will meet the needs  
of recreation leaders in churches,  
settlement houses, camps, youth  
organizations, and clubs of all  
kinds. It presents a new collection  
of program materials of both  
European and Latin-American ori- 
gin, includes folk festivals, long- 
term and short-term club projects,  
international parties for small and  
large groups, inter-faith worship  
material and camp suppers with an  
international angle. The author has  
given very specific directions for  
parties and projects to enhance the  
experience of world fellowship.  
The elements of planning, the spe- 
cific directions for making inexpen- 
sive "accessories," menus, recipes,  
and games are set forth in detail.  
A comprehensive table of signifi- 
cant festival dates and a classified  
bibliography are included.  
How Can You Help Other People  
by Samuel NI. Shoemaker.  
Never • was it so important to  
know how to help others as it is  
today. In a friendly, sympathetic  
manner, Mr. Shoemaker shows how,  
in these times of great moral and  
emotional strain, you can gain the  
necessary understanding and  
strength to help others, and your- 
self, in meeting the problems of  
life.  
There is good and bad in every- 
one, and most of us can be remade.  
To help people we must not be dog- 
matic, but suggestive, and try. for  
the trust and confidence of those  
we wish to help—for everyone has  
a secret in his life which he is  
yearning to confess to somebody.  
To help people we must love  
them, in the larger sense, and we  
must understand what life is all  
about. We must be cheerful and  
intelligent; we need flexibility and  
moral integrity, patience, persis- 
tence, and genuine humility. These  
things can all be attained, and Mr.  
Shoemaker shows us how.  
* Mr. and Mrs. Peter Beck, James- 
town, North Dakota; Mr. and Mrs.  
Jacob Beck and daughter, Corrine,  
Bowdon, North Dakota were week  
end visitors on the campus Novem- 
ber 11. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Beck  
are the parents of Reuben who is  
now attending Union.  
* Wesley Green (in American  
History) was seen waving his hand  
enthusiastically.  
Mr. Maas: Yes, Mr. Green? 
Mr. Green: Oh, I was just chas- 
ing flies.  
The speaker announced: "To- 
night I am going to give a talk on  
`Fools' and I trust that a great many  
will attend."  
A penny will hide the biggest  
star in the universe if you hold it  
close enough to your eye.

without preparation on Zaccheus.  
He said in part: "In many ways  
I am like Zaccheus. I am a little  
man; I am up a tree; and I'm com- 
ing down out of the tree."

Power Plant  
As winter approaches, we as col- 
lege students begin to appreciate  
more fully the steam radiators in  
our rooms. But did you ever won- 
der how the steam gets to our ra- 
diators?  
Oh, yes, it comes from the power  
house. But how? Under our campus  
are tunnels—approximately half a  
mile of tunnels. These tunnels are  
about four feet high and two or  
three feet wide. Yet no one could  
crawl through these tunnels, for in  
them are large steam pipes origi- 
nating in the power house and ter- 
minating at the various college  
buildings. If these pipes were taken  
out and put end to end, they would  
extend from the college to the op- 
posite section of Lincoln, a distance  
of seven or eight miles.  
But how is the steam made?  In  
the power house are three large  
boilers containing 1,800 gallons of  
water. When a boiler is "fired" the  
steam inside reaches a pressure of  
125 pounds per square inch. Steam  
under this pressure is 350 degrees  
Fahrenheit.  
If the outdoor temperature is be- 
low zero, oil is used in the burners.  
This oil is kept in two large storage  
tanks, each holding 15,000 gallons  
of fuel.  
If one had a car that would travel  
fifteen miles on a gallon of gasoline,  
then this person could circle the  
earth at the equator seventeen and  
a half times on the amount of gaso- 
line that could be stored in these  
two storage tanks.  
Or, the average five-room house,  
heated with an oil furnace, could  
survive twenty-two winters with the  
oil needed to fill these storage  
tanks.  
However, if the temperature  
outside is above zero, the city per- 
mits the power house to burn gas.  
On some days, over four hundred  
thousand cubic feet of gas are con- 
sumed. This amount of gas would  
heat, serve for cooking purposes,  
and heat water for the average du- 
plex four-room unit for two years.  
Until within a year ago, coal was  
burned exclusively in the power  
house. The fuel change-over is  
proving to be a great financial sav-
ing for the college. It is expected  
that during a one year period  
around eight thousand dollars will  
be saved in fuel expense. Besides  
this, labor expenses have been  
slashed considerably. And the new 
system is very much cleaner.

WINTER WARMTH  
"Mom, get de longies out; cold  
weather has set in!" Yes, the first  
y snow, an extra blanket, the heavy  
overcoat, a pair of golashes. Is that  
all it means? Or is it something  
deeper, perhaps hidden under the  
few inches of snow that covers our  
fair city?  
Do you remember that saying  
about "heaping coals of fire?" In  
my estimation, it was meant  
eactly for winter. When we are  
all tucking our woolen scarfs in and  
pulling our caps down low, a  
cheery word or an unexpected  
smile would do much to push out  
the frostbite that might have pene- 
trated to the inside.  
And remember; it is impossible  
to be thinking of yourself when  
you are thinking of others.  
Well—the thermometer has gone  
up several degrees already!  
Run SUTTER  
What Are They?  
Everyone has them, has had  
them, or will have them. They can  
be washed, brushed, rinsed and  
, they don't even need drying. In  
fact they are quite durable. They  
don't rust, mold, or mildew. People  
are not unique in having these won- 
derful contraptions; some toilet  
articles, garden tools and farm  
machinery have them, too. Of  
course, some of these inanimate  
objects are subject to rust. Wild  
and domesticated animals own  
them also.  
Some varieties are removable.  
Varying in size from a fraction of  
an inch to six feet or more in  
length, they are obtainable in met- 
al, plastic, wood, minerals, rubber,  
bone, ivory, and perhaps other  
materials. Some are so worthless  
you can throw them away when  
broken, while others are, or should  
be, very precious, and we spend  
most of our lives taking care of  
them.  
They come in many different  
colors; however, pure white is  
probably the most highly prized.  
The variety most valued cannot  
be bought. However, very accept- 
able substitutes can always be pur- 
1   chased. George Washington sent to  
England for one kind even in his  
day. So you can see that it isn't  
something new.  
The type young people possess  
have been compared to pearls. I  
wouldn't trade my teeth for pearls;  
would you? 	 LORLE DICK.

ACADEMY NOTES  
Lewis Johnson's parents, Mr.  
and Mrs. Jay Johnson, left Lincoln  
on November 19 for Oregon, where  
they will attend the 50th anniver- 
sary of Mrs. Johnson's parents.  
Lewis is a sophomore at U.C.A.  
Seventeen U.C.A. students en- 
joyed a Halloween party given by  
Wanda Versaw, October 31. Two  
chairs gave way under Donna  
Chambers and Calvin Krueger.  
Were these folks heavyweights?  
Maybe Wanda knows a better  
answer.  
Would you like a rat terrier  
puppy? Choose from a litter of  
eight. For further information see  
Frank McArthur.  
Jeanne Niswonger, a senior of  
'50, is returning home from Col- 
legedale because of ill health.  
Ramona and Barbara Zehm,  
students of Platte Valley Academy,  
visited their parents at Lincoln,  
November 3 to 5. Both girls are  
former U.C.A. students.  
Marlene Bauman and her room- 
mate, Virginia Roberts, were on the  
campus November 5 to 7. Marlene,  
a junior at Ozark Academy, at- 
tended U.C.A. for two years.  
Seniors' pictures for the  Golden  
Cords  were taken on November 2.  
In Old Testament class Mr.  
McLean asked Wilbur Dale, "Were  
we here at creation?"  
Wilbur replied, "No, we started  
with Abraham."  
Two volleyball teams have been  
organized. The girls play on Tues- 
day nights and the boys on Thurs-
days.  
Following Miss Smith's program  
on November 6, fifteen students  
indicated a definite interest in the  
nursing profession.  
Spencer Gordon evidently likes  
to climb. Mrs. Maas had lost her  
keys and asked Spencer to go  
through the transom in order to  
unlock the door from the inside.  
This he did, but to the onlookers'  
surprise, he came through the door  
and slammed it shut. His second  
climb was successful.  
The films, "The Declaration of  
Independence" and "Once Upon A  
Time," were shown in chapel, No-

Students are preparing a prayer  
scroll for prayer bands. Already, 
definite answers to prayer have  
been experienced. These devotional  
periods help to continue the week  
of prayer victories in the lives of  
the young people.  
Students appeared very studious  
from November 1 to 3. You ask  
why? It seems that nine weeks  
examinations were in order.  
Jackie Milham, Elaine Dale, and  
Katheryn Helmendach, sang for  
Sabbath school, November 4.  
Mr. Ellis Maas, principal of  
U.C.A., explained to students the  
two party system in chapel, No- 
vember 10. Now we understand  
how Mr. Dekker was elected state  
superintendent of public instruc- 
tion.  
While Mr. Maas was deciding  
which lunch box to buy, he said,  
"I'm counting my cents and I don't  
have any!"  
Wednesday chapels for acad- 
emy students are set aside for 
inspirational talks and prayer  
bands under the leadership of Elder  
Ralph Carter. Theology students,  
Norman Doss and Wilbert Dale, '  
gave talks on November 1 and 8.  
Youth Fellowship  
Leader Jane Woicinski was in  
charge of the "Share Your Faith"  
program of November 11.  
Mr. Vernon Green told how  
much sharing the faith has meant  
to him, for he became a S.D.A.  
through the interest of a fellow- 
workman.  
Phyllis Larson, Rollin Ellis,  
Margie Bucholz, Barbara Herzer  
and Jon Andrews told how to meet  
obstacles in sharing your faith.  
Marilyn Harr and Joyce Hanson  
sang solos for the special music.

Sabbath School Party  
A spooky time was had by  
U.C.A. students, Thursday night,  
November 2.  
As the gaily costumed young  
folks entered the door, they were  
given a number, a piece of paper,  
and a pencil. The race of identi- 
fying one another then began. The  
prize for getting the most names  
went to LaVonne Dirksen.  
The prizes for the best costumes  
went to Ann Dunlap, Phyllis Lar- 
son, and Spencer Gordon.  
After going through the "devil's  
den," some games were played, and  
then Mr. Carl Watts conducted a  
little Halloween fun in which Mary  
Henklemann "lost her head," and  
several people had some of their 
secrets revealed.  
At the close of the evening, re- 
freshments of apples, popcorn,  
cider, and candy were served.  

BOX SUPPER  
"Fifty," called one. "One dollar."  
Dollar thirty-five," came the loud- 
est call.  
"Sold to Myron Robertson, the  
highest bidder," replied the auc- 
tioneer.  
The occasion was a box supper  
on November 9, sponsored by the

8  	 CLOCK TOWER, NOVEMBER 22, 1950  
College Days  
During study period one eve- 
ning Helen Sullivan asked Norma  
Miller what "e-d-u-c-a-t-e" meant.  
"I don't know;" replied Norma,  
"look it up in the dictionary." Helen  
not only hauled out the dictionary  
and looked up the word but also  
read aloud the definition to Norma  
before she realized what she was  
doing.  
The students of Union College  
have learned how to be thrifty.  
Take for instance Lincoln Under- 
wood. He has discovered honestly  
by secret code, a way of saving the  
nickels he would ordinarily spend  
for phone calls. This is how it  
works: He makes arrangements  
with those whom he frequently calls  
that if the phone rings only twice 
the party is to call him back im- 
mediately. Lincoln makes the call,  
lets the phone ring twice, hangs up  
the receiver and gets his nickel  
back. In a few moments the phone  
rings and Lincoln is right there to  
take the call.  
When it comes to cold weather  
who do you think are the tougher,  
the boys of South Hall or the girls  
of North Hall? According to the  
Natural Science Club statistics only  
three girls voted not to go on the  
outdoor trip to Iowa when the  
weather turned cold the previous  
Wednesday morning, while four- 
teen of the boys feared frost bitten  
ears and chattering teeth.  
While the members of the child  
psychology class were discussing a  
trip to the state hospital, Richard  
Randolph walked in late. Mr.  
Straight turned to him and asked,  
"Would you like to go to the State  
hospital?"  
"Yes, but I've been there before,"  
replied Richard.  
"Patient or observer?" asked Mr.  
Straight.  
"Observer!"  
Donna Rae Bidwell was more  
than a little surprised the other  
morning when she nonchalantly  
strolled into History class in Room  
210 through the front door feeling  
very confident that she was on time.  
Her first surprise came when she  
realized that Mr. Maas was well  
along in his lecture for the day,  
but that was nothing compared  
with her amazement when the stu- 
dent she was sitting next to asked  
her if she knew that class would 
be over in just four minutes.  
Mary Ann Brinley to Helen Ty- 
nar at the dinner table: "Now,  
Helen, you know you will never  
grow up to be a big girl unless you  
eat your asparagus."  
Helen: "Oh, I don't know about  
that."   

Lindy Woicinski  would  have to  
go to bed early the night a surprise  
birthday was planned for her, but  
since she couldn't go to the party,  
the party came to her. Pat Louns- 
berry, Carol Coleman, Helen Stew- 
art, Ann Tolliver, Joan Bryant,  
Betty Reynolds, Blanche Schick,  
Marge Wagner, Jane Woicinski,  
and Mary Henkelman were those  
who rudely awakened her to wish  
her a happy birthday. Chocolate  
cake, Lindy's favorite, and pop  
were served, and Lindy received  
gifts from her friends.  
Doris White, could you have  
been a little sleepy early Sabbath  
morning ( one o'clock to be exact)  
when you tried to make Audrey  
Bascom and Marge Davis get up  
and go to church?  
Students had finished calling  
their numbers off for the roll in 
methods in evangelism when Mark  
Dickinson stepped in the door.  
Elder Williamson turned to Mark  
and asked, "What's your number?"  
Someone in the class quickly an- 
swered for him, "666."  
Elder Wearner ( dictating notes  
to his class) : "Do you have that  
down?"  
Voice: Yes.  
Elder Wearner: "How did it  
taste?"  
While giving a true and false  
test in methods in evangelism,  
Elder Williamson stated, "A preach- 
er should always take his wife with  
him when calling on new people:  
true or false?" Kenneth Lee in puz- 
zled bewilderment looked up from  
his paper and asked, "What if you  
don't have a wife?"  
Nina Engman sometimes has a  
hard time remembering her Eng- 
lish words. One day she was ex- 
plaining what "study period" was  
like when she was in the dormitory.  
"I could hardly breathe before the  
janitor came to tell me to be quiet!"  
she exclaimed. Of course after a  
moment everyone knew she meant  
"monitor" instead of "janitor," but  
that was just a trivial matter,  
wasn't it, Nina?

Ardythe Juhl was singing very  
lustily during Sabbath School when  
her roommate noticed that she was 
holding the book upside down.  
Verlene Wall told a group of stu- 
dents who were talking that a very  
good friend of hers teaches English  
to Spanish speaking ambassador's  
wives in Washington, D.C. Soon  
the subject turned to the White  
House, and Marvella Anderson  
asked, "Is that where the ambas- 
sador's wives live?"  
A group of students were talking  
last Friday about the overnight hike  
that was being enjoyed by the brav- 
est members of the Science Club.  
Earl Brenneise was overheard to  
say, "A person doesn't have to be  
crazy to go on an overnight hike in  
weather like this but it sure helps a  
lot."  
Mrs. Jeurink to class, "A pin- 
head is a person whose head does  
not grow out, but grows to a point.  
There are probably none around  
here because they are usually con- 
fined to an institution."  
Bob Widener: "This is an insti- 
tution."  
During the International Rela- 
tions CLUB'S mock registration  
Joyce Zummach could not make up  
her mind whether she was a Repub- 
lican or a Demociat. Finally she  
asked, "Well, what are most people  
from Minnesota?"  
On the card used to record phys- 
ical fitness rating for the physical  
education class, Joan Peters put for  
her height 12531 inches and her  
weight 65% pounds. Joan's growing  
to be a big girl now, but, Joan,  
don't you think you had better  
drink some Ovaltine?  
Merle Campbell received a  
Spanish paper the other day on  
which Miss Hall had written,  
"Where is you?" Merle wrote, "I is  
in South Hall; where is you?"  

Miss Shull (before the literature  
test): "If I notice you looking at  
your neighbor's paper, there will be  
only one conclusion  	   
Voice: That we don't know our  
literature?  
Gertrude Degering in the library  
the other evening: Can someone 
tell me where I live?" No, Gertrude  
wasn't exactly lost; she just could- 
n't remember her address to put on  
the call slip.  
The early morning breakfast at  
the College View park in honor of  
her birthday came as a complete  
surprise to Helen Stewart. Those  
who helped her enjoy the pancakes,  
eggs, and cocoa in spite of the cold  
weather and smoky fire were: Lin- 
dy Woicinski, Pat Lounsberry, Jane  
Woicinski, Ann Hazelton, Shirley  
Sorenson, Mary Henkleman, Don- 
na Rae Bidwell, Velma Johnson,  
Marge Wagner, and Ann Tolliver.  
The beautiful cake, which was  
presented to Helen, was saved for  
dessert at supper in the cafeteria,  
when all the girls ate together.  
Velma Johnson gave Russell  
Strom, editor of the  CLOCK  Tow- 
ER  for the '48-'49 school year, a  
most hearty welcome when he  
dropped by the CLocx  TOWER  
office. She tried her best to get him  
seated at the desk, but Russell said,  
"Oh, no, this is just a social call."  
In Mr. Taylor's freshman compo- 
sition class the was telling the stud- 
ents that most of their tests were  
graded and that on the whole the  
class had done well. Just then a  
timid, small voice came from the  
far corner of the room and said,  
"Are you sure that you have graded  
my paper?"

Nearly every city in America has ,  
at least one corner drug store; Col- 
lege View is no exception. Forty  
years ago the corner drug store of  
College View, now known as the  
Rice Pharmacy, was established by  
Dr. Lyman, dean of the University  
of Nebraska College of Pharmacy.  
It was later purchased by  T. R.  
Everett and in 1945 Paul Rice,  
present owner. acquired the phar- 
macy from Mr. Everett.  
Mr. Rice, a native of Nebraska  
and a graduate of the High Park  
College of Des Moines, Iowa, has  
been in the drug business since he  
was thirteen years old. Before com- 
ing to College View, Mr. Rice  
operated a drug store in Burr, Ne- 
braska, for eighteen years and  
another six years at Crab Orchard,  
Nebraska.  
E. N. Dart, a licensed pharma- 
cist and a graduate of the Univer- 
sity of Nebraska, assists Mr. Rice in 
serving the College View commun- 
ity in prescriptions and druc store  
needs. Mr. Rice says, "Like all  
pharmacies we like to run a purely  
ethical pharmacy."  
The Rice Pharmacy also has  
fountain service for the conven- 
ience of its customers.  
If you would have long friend- 
ships, cultivate a short memory.
