u xv cv Vol. XXXVI UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, October 4, 1962 No. 2 Religious Liberty Week Set For October 7-13 October 7-13 has been desig- nated as a week for special em- phasis on religious liberty. Spon- sored by the local chapter of the International Religious Liberty Association, this week-long event will feature special speakers for convocation, chapel, and the week- end services. According to Keith Schauer, who is president of the local Re- ligious Liberty organization, the activities will begin on Monday, October 7, when A. A. (Bishop) Leiske, originator and moderator of the Minneapolis television pro- gram, "Religious Town Hall" will be present to share with the Union College family, not only exper- iences from his vast background of work in the field of religious liberty, but a look at present events that are fulfilling Bible prophecy. Elder Marvin E. Loewen, secre- tary of the public affairs depart- ment of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, will be the featured speaker of the October 13 weekend, starting with convoca- tion on Friday, and continuing on through the weekend services, finalizing with a Sabbath after- noon program. Elder Loewen is Campus Club Fights Closing Ordinance Immediate action was taken by Union College's Religious Liberty Club last September 8, after tlie city council of Lincoln passed a Saturday-Sunday closing ordinance by a vote of 4-3. The club's first move was to conduct a cross-sectional public survey, intending to discover the general feeling toward this or- dinance in the city of Lincoln. The results showed a three-way balance of those in favor of the ordinance, those opposed to it, and those un- decided on the issue. Following the public survey, several interested individuals, iu co-operation with Mr. Russell Strom, a Seventh-day Adventist attorney in Lincoln, worked on the issue from another angle. In order to bring any city council-passed ordinance to a public referendum, allowing the voting population of Lincoln to get its say in the mat- ter, a petition with signatures of 6% of the bona fide voters can be presented to the city council with- in 15 days after the ordinance has been passed. This move was accomplished in the Lincoln closing ordinance case, when a total of 4,500 signa- tures, or about TM of the city's voting population, were collected by Mr. Strom and his associates, and presented to the city council. Word has not yet been released concerning the acceptance of these signatures, but the very act of presenting them to the council has momentarily deplaycd the ordin- ance from going into effect. Musical Meditations Begin This Sabbath Organ Meditations will be pre- sented in Engel Hall this Sabbath afternoon, October 6. Scheduled for 3:00 p.m., the program will in- clude numbers on the organ by Miss Marvelyn Loewen, instructor in organ, and vocal solos by Mr. Lyle Jewell, instructor in voice. "Jesu, Priceless Treasure Chorale With Variations" by Johann Pac- helbel, "Piece Heroique," by Cesar Franek, and "Cortege and Litanie" by Marcel Dupre will be played by Miss Loewen. Elder Sydney Allen of the re- ligion department will narrate for this first program. Musical medi- tation for Sabbath afternoon will be presented twice monthly by the music department. tho father of Miss Marvelyn Loe- wen, who is presently organ in- structor in the Union College music department. "It is my hope," says club presi- dent Schauer, "that as this week of emphasis on religious liberty comes, each student will get a little closer glimpse of what it means to live in this day and age, and will gain a deeper insight into the mission that the Lord has given us." ASB Committee Plans Autumn Sports Social The bi-annual ASB Sports Social, which is scheduled for 8:00 p.m., October 13 in the gymnasium, has been announced by Bob Grosboll, chairman of the Health and Rec- reation Committee. Everyone is welcome to attend, he says. Included in the evening's events will be group games in which student participation is encouraged, he added. Activities consisting of ping pong, volleyball, shuffleboard and other organized games are planned. The special event to high- light the evening has not been announced as yet. Members of the Health and Rec- reation Committee helping Gros- boll, pre-med senior from Colorado, are Bill Patton, pre-med sophomore from Nebraska; Ben Bandy, senior business administration major from Michigan; Marilyn Papenberg, sophomore nursing major from Illinois; Anna Streeter, senior ele- mentary education major from Wyoming; and Virginia Eichen- berger, senior home economics major from Nebraska. Sponsoring this committee is Dallas Simpson, assistant dean of men. Also helping to organize the evening's games will be W. A. Fleming and Mary Mooy from the college physical education depart- ment. Christian Record Builds New Factory & Offices Construction is now under way on the new $416,738 Christian Record factory and offices at 52nd and Locust in Lincoln, according to Elder C. G. Cross. A feature of the building will be a mural on one of the lobby walls The mural will portray the blind people who are given their sight at the second coming of Christ. The scriptural basis of the picture is Revelation 1:7, " . . . every eye shall see him ..." This mural, softened by dim indirect lighting, will be one of the artistic attractions in Lincoln, El- der Cross added. A wide glass front and trian- gular white ceramic tile wall will comprise the front facing of the office section of the one-story struc- ture. The factory will have twelve inch brick facing over the cement block walls. Tho outer structure is planned to be completed so that work can continue inside during the winter. The basement is already poured and the walls are under construc- tion. t The new headquarters will pro- vide about three times as much space as is presently available in their building at 48th and Ban- croft, across from the Union Col- lege campus. In addition, one to three duplexes are planned for housing of blind workers. (Continued on page 2, col. 1) Panel Discusses UC School Spirit The Religious Life Committee under the direction of Stanley Hagen, sophomore theology major, will be in charge of the program in chapel October 15. The discussion, carried on by a panel of six, will focus on the topic of school spirit. Panel mem- bers will be chosen from various faculty and staff departments at the college. Commenting upon the need for such a chapel, Hagen stated that there should be a real emphasis upon what consitutes school spirit. Mr. Spalding demonstrates the new laboratory equipment to Walter Lea. $5r200 Nuclear Laboratory Purchased With Atomic Energy Commission Grant The Union College physics de- partment has recently purchased new equipment valued at $5200, according to Kenneth D. Spaulding, instructor in physics. Tho equipment was obtained with funds made available by an educational grant from the Atomic Energy Commission. A $750 neutron moderator pro- duces gamma rays in the labora- tory. The neutron moderator is a suberitical nuclear reactor which means that the same process occurs in the moderator as in the nuclear bomb but the reaction is of such a small scale that no explosion re- sults. The gamma rays are then trans- ferred to the $1000 combination photomultiplier and gamma ray crystal. This device operates on the Scintillation principle and certain gamma ray isotopes that are pro- duced in the neutron moderator are detected. Finally, the gamma ray spectro- meter, a $3400 machine, forms a spectrum of die gamma rays and the isotope can then be identified. Three basic units are included in the gamma ray spectrometer. They are the basic counter, rate meter, and spectrum analyzer. The nuclear materials to be used in the laboratory are plutonium and beryllium. The materials are loaned from ihe Atomic Energy Commis- sion, which owns all nuclear ma- terial in the United States. The physics department hopes to soon add a class in radioisotope technology to its curriculum for majors in physics, chemistry, and biology. "This will be of especial value to those students who do graduate study, because most scientific re- search today involves the radioiso- tope," concluded Mr. Spaulding. Tan, Schneider Elected As Jr., Sr., Presidents Underclassmen Name / Erickson, Deming Robert Ton Funds Appropriated To Denver Campus Three hundred dollars was ap- propriated to the ASB members on the Denver campus by the student council in their September 26 meeting. Steve Gifford, chair- man of the student council, said that the money, which will be used for recreation, will help to "boost the morale" of the girls and make them remember that they are still a part of Union College. The student council, which takes the place of the now defunct House of Representatives, is com- posed of the executive officers of the ASB, the editors-in-chief of the CLOCK TOWER and Golden Cords, the staff sponsor and fi- nancial adviser for the ASB execu- tive department, the presidents of Sigma Iota Kappa and Kappa Theta, four students elected by the student body, two faculty members appointed by the presi- dent of the college and the chair- men of the following committees of the ASB: health and recreation, nominations and elections, pro- gram productions, social, promo- tions, religious life and student center. According to the ASB Consti- tution, the student council rules on "the legislative and judicial func- tions of the ASB." All meetings arc open to the student body. Leonhardtand Page Honored At Dinner Drs. Walter Page and Earl Lconhardt will be honored Octo- ber 14 at a dinner in the Golden Crown Room of King's Buffet. In- vited to attend are the college de- partment heads, administrators, and others with their doctoral de- grees. This social occasion has become tradition for the staff of Union and is held each year in honor of those who have just completed their doctoral degrees. Dr. Richard Leffler and Dr. Paul Joice, last year's honorees, are in chargc of plans for the dinner. Student Bands Planned For Missions Promotion The final organization of the eighty-five ingathering bands for Missions Promotion Day, October 24, will take place in the October 19 convocation. Each band will consist of a student leader,- staff sponsor, and four band members. Dr. Neil Rowland, co-ordinator of the annual solicitation drive, feels that the program will work more efficiently if the students work with the band in which they are interested. This way they will feel a responsibility to each other and the success of their band. Student leaders have begun their organization now and others will have opportunity to indicate desire for participation at the Oc- tober 19 convocation. "Nominations are now open for the office of president." These words were heard in several places throughout the Union College campus on Friday, September 29. Leading the senior class of 1963 as president is Robert Tan of Singapore. Jean Randolph of Lou- isiana will be assisting him as vice- president. Tlie secretary is La Vonne Rcinhardt from Kansas. The offices of treasurer, sergeant ?.t arms, and pastor have not been elected but will be chosen at a future date. Don Schneider The class second in importance on the Union College campus are the juniors. Their officers are as follows: president, Don Schneider, Louisiana; vice-president, Pat Mar- tin, Oklahoma; secretary, Nancy Cachero, Missouri; treasurer, Nelda Gabbert, Missouri; pastor, Tom Neslund, Minnesota; sergeant at arms, Warren Thomas, Iowa. "Inn" Will Be Shown This Saturday Night A documentary film, "The Inn of the Sixth Happiness," will be shown October 6 at 8 p.m. in the UC gymnasium. Ingrid Bergman Curt Jcrgens, and Robert Donat star in the three-hour cinemascope production, for which a special movie camcra lens has been pur- chased. The story takes place in China during world war II. Gladys Ayl- ward, who was rejected as a mis- sionary in Britain, sets up a mis- sion station of her own in one of the provinces in Japan. Her ex- periences includc brushes with a Mandarin, a gang of mule-drivers, an Eurasian army officer, and one hundred Chinese orphans. Seniors Named Soon To 1963 "Who's Who" As many as seventeen Union College seniors may be named this year for listing in the 1963 volume of Who's Who in American Col- leges and Universities. Within a week the list of seniors with a grade point average of at least 2.00 will be taken to the stu- dent body for nominations. Criter- ia for the decisions will be: 1. The student's excellence and sincerity in scholarship. 2. His leadership and participa- tion in academic and extracurricu- lar activities. 3. His citizenship and service to to the college. 4. His promise of future useful- ness to the church, society, and business. 5. His spiritual life and leader- ship. Tlie names then go to the facul- ty for nominations. The final de- cisions are made by a special com- The students from Colorado are holding three of the offices of the sophomore class.

Christian Record Builds New Factory & Offices (Continued from page 1) The Christian Record employs about seventy-four people. Twenty of these employees work here in Lincoln and the rest work in the field. Eight of the workers are blind. The Christian Record is a Gen- eral Conference institution and is the only such institution in the Union College territory. The Lincoln offices and factory produce and distribute more re- ligious literature for the blind than any other religious organization in the world, Elder Cross notes. This literature is free to blind children and adults and those who are vis- ually handicapped or near blind. The services of the Christian Record are sent to seventy-nine countries in the world. All services are now in English, but the ex- panded facilities present the pos- sibility of work in other languages. The future of the present build- ing is still undecided; it may be made into apartments or rented as office space.

More than 100 students, faculty, and community residents attended this first rehearsal, and Mr. Jewell hopes that another 50 to 100 sing- ers will join. The mass choral group is work- ing on Handel's "Messiah" which will be presented the weekend of December 15 in the college au- ditorium. Also participating in this presentation will be the college orchestra with Mr. Melvin A. Johnson directing. "This will be the most thrilling presentation this year, clue to the grandeur of music and the spiritual content of words," stated Mr, Jewell to the Chorus members. Reader's Digest Views US Foreign Service Collegians seeking a career that offers challenge might well con- sider entering the Foreign Service of the United States. Few careers combine as much challenge with as great an opportunity to serve America, according to an article in the October Reader's Digest. College students contemplating Foreign Service careers should be willing to live in less-than-ideal conditions. Lewis writes, "Foreign Service officers regularly take their families to live for years in places where I would hate to go on a one-day business trip." Language skills are a must. Virtually all FSO's speak at least one foreign language; many speak more than one. In great demand are such "hard languages" as Arabic, Hindi, Thai and Vietnam- ese, among others. Competition for Foreign Service appointments is keen, Lewis writes. About 200 young men and women are accepted each year from the 6000 to 8000 persons who apply. The FSO's are virtually all col- lege graduates, with more than half having some postgraduate work as well. All in all, Lewis concludes, the Foreign service is a place where initiative, imagination and courage are in high demand, and where "striped pants and cocktail parties" aren't nearly as common as work clothes and hard, down-to-earth toil. Dunn Attends Study On College Finance Mr. Vernon S. Dunn, business mananger of Union College, at- tended a committee meeting callcd by the General Conference to study the financial policies of the Seventh-day Adventist senior col- leges in the United States. This was held in Washington D. C. on October 4 and 5. Elder M. V. Campbell, one of tho vice-presidents of the General Conference, is the chairman of the committee.

China Missionary Tells Of His Experiences , Dr. P. E. Quimby, vice-president of Pacific Union College, was a guest on the Union -campus the week end of September 29. Having been a missionary in China for twenty-five years, he related many experiences at the special Sabbath afternoon meeting. Though young and adventure- some when starting his work, he and his wife together dedicated their lives in unselfish service for God. "This was no sacrifice on our part—only Christ sacrificed when He gave His life for us," declared Dr. Quimby. On the contrary, they strongly feel thtat the highest and greatest privilege ever endowed to man is the mission work. It not only benefits others, but it strengthens one's own charactcr. He spoke of his deep love and respect of the Chinese people. They are the most liberal and sincere people on earth he said and their marvelous response to Christianity is very impressive. To end his message, he admon- ished the young people to use every opportunity to witness for Christ for there arc souls in every land thirsting for the truth.

They plan to arrive at the Porter Sanitarium and Hospital at five p.m. Thursday just in time for the evening meal. "The main purpose of this four- day trip to the Colorado Campus is to give the freshman nursing student a glimpse of what her last two years of training will be like, Dorothy Russell, instructor in nurs- ing," says. The group will tour the Porter Hospital where they will be doing their clinical work after their sopho more year. They will meet many of the personnel, visit the class- rooms, and become aware of the hospital facilities available. There will be time for sightseeing in and around Denver, the "mile-high city." Saturday night the Associated Student Body of the Colorado Campus will be sponsoring a talent program. Several of the visiting students from Lincoln have been asked to participate in the pro- gram. "They arc looking forward to a good time," says Mrs. Russell, who is accompanying the group. They plan to bo back in Lincoln Sun- day, October 7. The freshmen nursing students from Southwestern Union College arc also invited to this special visitation day in Denver.

Late morning rains had threat- ened to ruin plans for the target teams. However, by the scheduled leaving time, welcomed sunlight presented itself and continued un- til the mission had been accom plished. "Plans," "mission," "Target Teams"—what do these mean, you ask? First of all, the real foundation of the target team activity lies in the M. V. aim— "The Advent Message to all the world in this generation." To build on this foundation, the lead- ers and sponsors of the Union Col- lege M. V. Society chose a Ne- braska city, Beatrice, as a center of evangelistic activity for first semester, 1962. Then, just as scheduled, on Sept. 29 organized groups of two, known as "Target Teams" entered Beatrice with a religious interest survey—a poll designed to search out persons Dean Clark Addresses Pre-Med Club Members Walter B. Clark, dean of stu- dents at Loma Linda University addressed the opening meeting of the Pre-med Club last Wednes- day. Dean Clark, who has been on the Union College Campus the last three days to counsel prospec- tive students of Loma Linda, launched the Pre-med Club into its activities this year. "The Pre-med Club is actively planning a full schedule of pro- grams this year" announced Bob Grosboll, club president. "We have already contactcd several other outstanding speakers and arc al- ready laying plans for our field trip to Omaha. Other officers leading out in the Pre-med Club are; Melvin Lake, vice-president, and Kristine Swanson, secretary. definitely interested in studying into the Bible more deeply. When such persons were found, one les- son of a Bible Correspondence course was presented to them. Next Week, Too "Is this all, then?" you ask. In- deed not; for next week at the same time the same teams will return to the same city and will follow up the survey with an- other Bible correspondence les- son. In fact, teams will continue returning to Beatrice, so long as interest remains there. Beatrice is a good-sized, friendly city of 12,000 located 47 miles directly south of Lincoln on Highway 77. A Seventh-day Ad- ventist church has been organized there, and it has a membership of nearly 40. Eight weeks following the first target team survey, a week of meetings will get under way. The student-conducted evangel istic speakers, ushers, and musicians will all be Union College students. Following this first week, a full evangelistic series will be con- ducted by Elder Shultz, local pas- tor of the Beatrice district. Consecration Needed Coming down to "brass tacks," several want to know, "can a program of this nature really be sucessful?" Certainly it can! If many souls can be brought to the Lord in India, Africa, or South America, where means are so meager, then how many more we should be able to win here in bountiful America, where we have superior means of transportation and communication to use in God's work. Yet, means alone can in no respect finish God's work. Elder Royce Williams, returned mission- ary from the Phillipines who re- cently spoke at Union College's Foreign Mission Band, deemed CONSECRATION as the number 1 requisite in soul-winning work. Yes, success in the "Target Bea- trice" project will demand many consecrated prayers and efforts on the part of Union students. Somehow, the atmosphere and feelings connected with target team Evangelism brings us to a statement from Mrs. White: "with such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained, might fur- nish . . . how soon might the end come!"

Girl Likes Mechanics? That's What It Says by Jean Randolph Every year UC's testing depart- ment visits the academies of the Central and Northern unions, giv- ing tests that cover different areas from aptitude to interests. It's quite an experience to be a stu- dent assistant who accompanies the testing official to one or more academies to give these tests. Let me explain. When I, another girl, and a test- ing official arrived late one eve- ning on X Academy's campus, we just wanted nice, soft places to sleep. Students and faculty were in a worship service in the chapel, which unfortunately for us faced the main hall. Carefully we tiptoed clown the hall, heading (we hoped) for the girls' dormitory and trying to miss part of the squeaking boards. It was to no avail. Heads craned in the chapel, straining to sec what intruders were rather noisily creaking down the hall past the chapel doors. Helplessly seized with giggles, Judy and I tried hard to compose our faces into what we hoped were dignified expressions befitting col- lege students. That was useless, so we made a grand entrance at X Academy. Later, to our surprise, the actual testing went quite smoothly. Stu- dents followed directions correctly, didn't throw spit balls, and in gen- eral acted as our education books South Dakota Scott, Joan Texas Houghton, James Marinkovic, Roland Peacock, Taylor Hong Kong Lee, Frank Tan, David SPECIAL GET-ACQUAINTED OFFER 20% off on all records with coupon below One time purchase only for any amount of records at the 20% discount.

The only flaw in our test-inter- preting occured when one bewil- dered girl wailed. "But how can that test show that I have a strong interest in mechanics? I hardly know one end of a car from an- other!" I didn't know either, but there it was in black and white on the test score sheet. After quickly packing our test- ing equipment, we left for Y Acad- emy. We arrived there just in time for skating and play period that evening. As the students whizzed around the floor at breakneck speeds, we carefully observed them, wondering who would score high- est on certain tests. Early the next morning the fun began. Freshmen and sophomores were sent to the cafeteria, and the juniors and seniors were packed into the library. Test directions were carefully read aloud by an instructor, and the testing began. For a while all was quiet, but as the morning wore on, restlessness set in among the students. One SPORTS Koob's Team Picked As Favorite The Intramural Football Season started September 23, and if the first week is an indication of future play, this should be the best season yet. With better of- ficiating, better attendance, and less griping, more people will be able to enjoy the game. During the first game Tim Mc- Guire's team got a good break in the last minutes of the game when a defensive back intercepted a Gnadt pass on the five yard line and then ran out the clock to pre- serve a 14-12 score. The second game ended in a 12-12 tie between Ed Story's team and Wayne Longhofer's team. With Ed Story's getting hurt in the quarter, John Ridpath start- ed to run the team and managed to keep from taking a win. With the season just started one wonders how the teams will fin- ish. Here is the way I pick them. John Koobs 1st—John Koob's team. This team has the strongest offense of any in the league. Led by Mr. Fleming at quarterback, they have a strong passing team. Fleming has plenty of receivers with Dean Simpson, John Deming, David Job, and especially John Koobs on the team. Their running game is strong enough to keep the defense from shifting to an all-out pass defense. Blocking is good also. Their biggest problem is picking those players who will remain on the sideline. girl was a confirmed giggler, and she never seemed to cease. Close by were several boys who pos- sessed the dubious talent of break- ing up pencils and accurately aiming them at someone—in fact, just anyone. But my favorite was the marble thrower. Who but a very inventive person would ever have selected marbles as the easiest-to-aim and loudest-to-land missiles available? Yes, with great gusto the stu- dents responded to test-taking. But secretly I must admit that our UC group wouldn't have missed the experience for anything. Notice There will be no convocation on Friday, October 5, the academic dean's office has announced.

This team has some outstanding players, but not enough of them to win the championship. With Longhofer they have a good passer, but he doesn't have enough pass protection or enough top receivers. They do have a fairly good defense anchored mostly around Bob Camp. Their running game is medium but they do not have enough bench support. Jim Ste- phens and Sheldon Anderson will help make them good competitors, but with Wayne Rutland out be- cause of injuries they will not finish any higher. Ed Story 3rd—Ed Story's team. Quarter- back John Ridpath, end Gene Johnson, halfbacks Fulbright and Mattox will be the top offensive players. They have good blocking and plenty of weight. Their main problem is that Ed Story is side- lined for awhile and they need another good player. Ed Connell 4th—Ed Connell's team. If Roger Davis wasn't hurt, this team would be near the top, but with him out this team will have to struggle to gain fourth place. This team has plenty of speed in Wayne Judd and Dave Priest, but they have very little weight. Tim McGuire 5th—Tim McGuire's team. Quar- terback Bob Grosboll, halfbacks Don Nicolay and Gene Thorton, and end Bob Bischoff will be the top players. They have a fairly strong passing and running game and blocking is fairly good. So far no one has been sidelined, and if this team gets a few breaks they could finish much higher. Kiff Achord 6th—Kiff Achord. This team has a strong-looking roster but they do not seem to have enough team- work. With Achord, Ben Bandy, and Huey Anderson they have the speed, but they don't seem to be able to use it. With Bob Arias at quarterback the might be able to move better on offense. Paul Gnadt 7th—Paul Gnadt's team. With Gnadt at quarterback they have a strong passer, but Gerald Perk- eypile and Jac Colon are the only receivers. Also, their pass pro- tection isn't too good. They can move the ball well at times, but they don't have enough good players. Most of the teams are evenly matched, and only as the season progresses will we be able to tell who will win the championship. 0M AW!

Current Events Index Rights One hundred eighty-six years ago our forefathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conccived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Abraham Lincoln stated that this government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth. Yet this could happen in America. You ask how and I say by ignorance; ignorance of the things going on about us in our city, state, and nation. A recent poll on current events conducted by die CLOCK TOWER in conjunction with the history department, divulged a result none of us are proud of, students are not news con- scious. They are oblivious to rulings or events that could effect or change their way of life before they become aware of it. When Governments are being overthrown, who rallies to the side of the dictator? The asset of the dictator is ignor- ance. Ignorance is prevalent in his standard bearers. These people are thus because they have not been aware of happen ings going on about them day aftetr day and so are entangled in the web of deceit and become gullible to his style of propa- ganda. What would we say one morning if we were to awaken and find laws or events had taken place curtailing our privi- leges merely because we had neglected to keep abreast of the news and exercise our prerogatives as citizens. The staff wishes to acknowledge the tremendous good Dr. R. K. Nelson, Chairman of the History Department, is doing in promoting the study of Current Events in his vari- ous history classes. We can see its value when we compare freshman and senior knowledge in the news media as was disclosed in the recent poll. Dr. Nelson's efforts are paying dividends in making students news conscious and we wish to commend him on his efforts. We've Got A Litter Problem A park-like expanse of green lawn, shady trees, and bright flowers, all neatly kept—and ice cream papers, po- tato chip sacks, and other trash strewn here and there. That's the UC campus. The grounds crew spends much time and energy keep- ing the campus beautiful. It seems as if there is always a lawn mower being operated, or flower beds being neatly groomed, or even trees receiving a good pruning. As a result, a tidy, attractive landscape graces UC. But then someone comes along and drops a piece of paper; another discards a paper sack. Still another de- posits a candy wrapper on die lawn. It doesn't take many such Jitterbugs to spoil the beauty of the campus. There are conveniently placed trash cans that can be used to solve the litter problem. Let's try using them. /tfax 30 A visitor to the bookbindery the other day stopped to ask two girls working there what their duties were. "Oh," they replied with a twinkle, "we're the 'cover girls'."

"Its pur- pose is to acquaint the students with the world around us," ac- cording to Elder Sydney Allen, as- sistant professor in religion and evangelism. What do Union College students actually know about current events? In seeking an answer to that question, the CLOCK TOWER conducted a survey on current news items.

What was the name or gen- eral idea of the economic act passed last week by Congress, that is probably the most important legislation passed in this session of Congress? 2. Who are the Republican and Democratic senatorial nominees from Massachusetts? 3. Who has been nominated by the GOP for reelection as Gover- nor of New York? 4. What significant resolution concerning Cuba was passed last week by Congress? 5. What is the nature of the conflict between the Governor of Mississippi and the United States Federal Courts? 6. What is the nature of the "Billie Sol Estes Scandal?" 7. What is the recent local im- portance of the term "SOS?" 8. What was the Presidential Cabinent position that was official- ly filled today? 9. What is the most important country now trying to gain entry into the European Common Mar- ket? 10. What was the event in New York City that caused the eyes of the world to be turned there last week? The average results compiled on the percentage of correct answers out of the ten are as follows: Freshmen Men—23.4% Women—32.5i6 Sophomores Men—56.6% Women—48.3% Juniors Men—63.5% Women—47.5% Seniors Men—83.4% Women 69.7% All men—56.7% All women—49.5% This poll was not as extensive as it might have been, but die reporter endeavored to sample a true cross section of the students on campus. The answers to the questions are: 1. Trade Expansion Act was pas- sed by Congress last week by a vote of 78 to 8 in the Senate. It replaces the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act for five years, and it grants the President near-revolutionary tariff- cutting powers. 2. Democrat nominee is Edward (Teddy) Kennedy, brother of the President. The Republican nominee is George Cabot Lodge. 3. Nelson A. Rockefeller won the rcnomination for governor of New York. 4. By a vote of 86 to 1 the Sen- ate endorsed the use of force if necessary to prevent the spread of Cuban Communism in the Western Hemisphere. 5. Mississippi Governor Barnett rejected the U.S. Court of Appeals' decision upholding the right of James Meredith, a Negro, to attend Ken'i Kampus Kommentary by Ken Liggett My subject for this week is "Dear old Union loyality to thee ..." Of course I am talking about the school song. I was told that the school song was a touchy subject because it has become a tradition. I don't want anyone to get the idea that I go around knocking traditions. There are many, many, many, traditions at Union; human and other- wise. Remember the Friday chapel when the school song was supposed to be part of the opening exercises? Instead of the full-throated roar the chorister evidently expected, he was rewarded for his arm swinging with a muffled bel- low from somewhere in the back row, and a startled sqeal from up front. This may be slightly exaggerated, but I think my point is clear. The audience simply didn't sing. Why? I believe I have at least one answer. With a few changes in the lyrics this fine old tradition would be an iden- tical twin with the renowned fight song of the seventh-grade football team back home. Now before somebody comes looking for me with blood in his eye, may I suggest a course of action. We have on this campus a fine music department. It is headed by devoted instructors and is chocked full of eager, bright, talented stu- dents. Why not hand the problem over to them and see what they can do about this sad situation? Who knows, this may be the beginning of another fine old tradition. Big, Bad Bachelor Classifies UC's Marriage-Minded Coeds by A Staff Writer I first became aware of the menace on our campus last September. While I was serenely eating dinner with a full complement of girls at the table, I heard for the first time an inadvertent hint as to why most of the women living in Rees Hall came to Union College—the men liv- ing in South Hall. They have only one aim, marriage! My fork slipped from nerveless fingers and hit the plate with an awful clatter. I choked on a piece of entree lodged in front of my Adam's apple, and I was excused from the tabic in a fit of coughing which left me gasping for my breath. Since that time, I have made careful observations, and I respectfully submit this report on the basic types of women living at Union College. Type 1. Miss Clinging Vine. This one can be pure poison—ivy that is. This type comes in all shapes and sizes, but she can easily he distinguished from the rest. She is dependent on everyone, especi- ally men. When out on a date, she is so helpless one is almost led to .believe that spreading the butter on her bread is going to be too much for her. This girl should marry a man with a strong arm and a very weak mind. Type 2. Miss Shy and Retiring. This girl is painfully shy—painful to her date, of course. With downcast eyes she stomps on her loved one's feet while pounding him in the ribs with her callused elbow. Sho screams and laughs at his every remark, even, "Please pass the salt." He can be the dullest human alive, but she will never suspect a thing. This woman should be approached with extreme caution. Wear shin guards and toe plates on every date. Type 3. Miss Athletic. This femme fatalc is definitely the type for the sports minded. Anything the man of her choice can do, she can! do better; and she has a trophy to prove it. This girl is unbeatable in every sport except one, smooching. In this field she is a rank amateur, and what is more, this sport does not interest her one bit. She is an ideal partner for one who is anxious to sharpen up his batting, bowl- ing, pitching, and tabic tennis eye; but for those who like spectator sports, she is three strikes and way out. There may be others on campus who do not fit into these cata- gories. If there are, do not bother to introduce them. Women with marriage on their minds frighten me. classes at the University of Missis- sippi. 6. Billie Sol Estes is involved in a vast number of legal matters stemming around the agriculture scene. 7. Sabine Oral Sunday was Sun- day, September 23, and the resi- dents of Lincoln were given the polio vaccine. 8. The Secretary of Labor Wirtz was appointed to replace Goldberg who has accepted a position on the U.S. Supreme Court. 9. Great Britain now wants to join the European Common Mar- ket. 10. The Seventeenth United Na- tions General Assembly began in New York last week. HELP WANTED!
