Coys Cop Cup for Keeps as 3960 Subs Smash Goal by |ANICE MORGAN Chapel-time oil Wednesday, No- vember 17, saw the annual CLOCK TOWER campaign come to a close as the COYS emerged victorious 24 subs ahead of the MARTINS. The over-all goal of 3700 subs was reached and even exceeded by proudly bearing their gold cup— this time for keeps. After the long hard struggle for the cup, the COYS are rightly proud; the MARTINS made them work for it. The goal of 2200 subs was reached and even exceeded by 261 subs and everyone is antici- pating a longer Thanksgiving va- Thanksgiving Vacation Starts November 23, 12:15 p.m. cation, the choice of the majority of the student body. The COYS of North Hall held a small drive for subs in their own dormitory. On two nights during the second week of the campaign the lights were left on longer to give the girls a chance to write for more subs; the idea proved to be very profitable; many letters were written. The floor writing the most sub letters, which was third floor, received a prize of cookies and punch. To encourage the student body and put enthusiasm into the cam- paign, a skit was presented on Oc- tober 28 and 29. The MARTINS and COYS, along with some faculty members, combined forces to por- tray a small country school. Those in the skit were Tommy Ellis, Bev- erlee McBee, Phyllis McCollum, Joan Bitzer, Wendy Owen, Arlene Pieha, Miss Anderson, Miss Smith, Carl Bauer, Doug Eddleman, Bob Scott, Cliff Reeves, Mr. William H. Taylor, Dean Monte Culver and Mary Zummach. The campaign proved beneficial for the individuals who placed among the winners, and they were rewarded for all their work toward the campaign. Don Dick captured the $50 gift certificate from Ben Simon and Sons as first place win- ner; coming in with a close second and third were Ardell Rouse ancl Dean Culver who will now be writ- ing with a beautiful Sheaffer pen and pencil set. Also rewarded were Kathy Westermeyer, Mr. Taylor, Wesley Welch, Virginia Simmons, Ray Bailey, Dale Palmer, and Emily Nick. They were given $10 gift cer- tificates. The leaders in the campaign were Barbara Oliver ancl Carl Bauer. Their assistants were Anna Reut- ting, Verlene Nesmith, Janice Mor- gan. Phyllis McCollum, Betty Lou Foy, Coriena Lowry, Ellen Holt, Beverlee McBee, John Westerberg, Jon Owens, and Melvin Campbell. The village and academy leaders were Norma Jean Draper, Louis Johnson, Natalie Deming and Har- old Reeder. The COYS would like to thank everyone who helped in this cam- paign, to commend the MARTINS for being such good sportsmen, and to thank all the subscribers who made it possible for them to win. The gold cup will find its perma- nent home in North hall, and next year will see another CLOCK TOWLH campaign. 0 ut rr Thanksgiving Vacation Ends November 28, 6:30 p.m. Vol. XXVIII UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, NOVEMBER 18, 1954 No. 5 FORMER UNION COLLEGE PROFESSOR LECTURES ON TEMPERANCE AND GIVES CONTEST PRIZES Dr. Winton H. Beaven, associate secretary of the International Tem- perance Society, presented $100 in prize money to three Union College students', Marieda Blehni, Wayne Hayes, and Ernest Chan at Novem- ber 11 and 12 chapels. In his talk on temperance, Dr. Beaven em- phasized a program against tobac- co. First prize in the national poster contest, $"0, went to Ernest Chan; second prize in the nat;o:ial essay contest. 35, was awarded to Marie- dr Blehm; and third prize in the national poster contest, S15, was presented to Wayne Haves. "E\ ery Seventh-day Adventist whc believes his Bible should not bc merely a signer of a temperance pled'/e but an active worker for th? temperance cause," challenged Dr. Ber.ven. He revealed how the tem- perance work has served ss an on- Jpv v-i rr (r\y fVio "v> tvion\' foreign countries and concluded with the statement, "Is this the work of the gospel? I think it is!" On the platform with Dr. Beaven were Dean E. B. Ogden, Elders M. D. Oswald and D. E. Reiner, local and union ATS leaders and the UC temperance society officers. The lo- cal ATS officers are: president, John Westerberg; vice-president, Warner Ewing; secretary, Lola Cleveland; treasurer, Betty Krueger; publicity secretary, Melvin Cambell; and sponsor, Elder J. J. Williamson. "If people are more interested in tobacco than alcohol at this time, then let's give them a tobacco cru- sade," was the idea expressed by Dr. Beaven. He told of a film made to discourage use of tobacco; the first day of the production, the pro- ducer stopped smoking; the second ci v the camera man stopped; the thYrl the actcr and actress gave it Sixty SA Delegates Close Workshop at SWJC Dr. Beaven is welcomed a1 the c'rp r" by SA Presidsnt Raloh Wat'.s, MV Leader Buddy Clark, Union College ATS Sponsor J.

This same program was present- ed by Dr. Hare last spring on the local television program Capsules of Knowledge. It has already been presented at several academies in the Central Union and will be given at Oak Park Academy this coming Saturday night, November 20. Discussing the various secMonal meetings are Union College delegates Curtiss Dole, Dean E. B. Ogden, Martha Gist, Ralph Watts, Don Dick, and Alberta Greene. The Fifth Annual Inter-collegiate Student Association Workshop of the nine eastern Seventh-day Ad- ventist colleges convened at South- western Junior College, Keene, Tex- as, November 3-6. Union College was represented by five students and Dean E. B. Ogden, SA sponsor, making a total of six delegates. Ralph Watts, SA -president; Cur- tiss Dale, vice-president; Don Dick, editor of the CLOCK TOWER; Martha Gist, editor of the Goklen Cords; and Alberta Greene, Kappa Theta president; attended the four sec- tional meetings of the workshop in addition to the three general ses- sions. SWJC Student Association Presi- dent Franklin House presided at the general sessions, and the host col- lege representatives acted as chair- men in their respective sectional meetings. The majority of the time at the workshop was devoted to the four sectional meetings: administra- tive officers, financial and business officers, editors of student papers, and editors of student yearbooks. Dean E. B. Ogden, Professor P. de F. Henderson of Washington Missionary College, and Elder W. A. Howe, MV and Educational Sec- retary of the Southwestern Union, gave devotionals at the general ses- sions opening each day's activities. Professor Leif Kr. Tobiassen of Southern Missionary College and Dr. W. M. Schneider of Emmanuel Missionary College delivered key- note addresses at the third and four- th general sessions respectively. Their subjects were "Preparation for Democratic Leadership and Democratic Followership," and "T raining College Students to Handle the Financial Affairs of a Student Association." Atlantic Union College will be host to the Sixth Annual Intercol- legiate SA workshop next year. Jorgensen Reads Paper At Chemistry Convention Dr. Guy C. Jorgensen, head of Union College chemistry depart- ment, was among those attending the midwest regional three-day con- vention of the American Chemical Society in Omaha during the first week in November. This meeting included chemistry professors of colleges and universities from Ohio to Colorado. The doctor lectured in the divi- sion of chemical education on No- vember 5.

Caucuses both large and small, votes, discussions, differences, parliamentary procedure, sectional meetings, rump sessions, resolu- tions, and leaders from nine eastern SDA colleges mixed generously with good will in Christian fellowship, brought unity to the Fifth An- nual Inter-Collegiate Workshop. There were conflicts between the centralized and the decentral- ized systems of SA organization. There were differences over parlia- mentary procedures and time of meeting and many other things, but in the end we found unity. The SA of each College will not be changed radically, but there may be some modifications and improvements sparked from ideas shared at the workshop. Probably nowhere else could the denominational leaders of to- morrow be seen in action—learning, discussion, giving, receiving, and through the democratic process always unifying and strengthening. Funds used in sending delegates to Workshop are well spent. Time devoted to this instruction is worth twice the time in the class- room. These are the benefits we found at the Workshop. The CLOCK TOWER does not publish national and international news items because, as we see it, there is plenty of opportunity to obtain such information in newspapers and magazines. In addition, these papers and periodicals are in a better position to cover and write the news of such events more adequately than we. We will, however, in view of our conviction that good citizens are well informed citizens, attempt to bring to our readers all matters of national and interna- tional importance which would alter their status here at college. We would like to commend the International Relations club for reviving "Spot News, 9:40 news" which is heard at that time each Thursday and Friday chapel. We consider it a way of helping those who will not help themselves. It is a step in the right direction toward creating and maintaining a well informed and thinking student body. There has been considerable discussion on the campus to the effect that the MV activity bands are not being as well attended this year as in years past. True, some of the bands are suffering from a lack of members. On the other hand, consider the sunshine bands. Last year there were three or perhaps a maximum of four. This year there are ten regularly functioning sunshine bands. Some of the less popular bands are not faring so well. One week the Bible study group consisted of three members. The TV band has averaged about six members per week. The Bible correspondence band could use more members to good advantage also. The program recording group is in need of members with portable tape or wire recorders. The fact that a person attends one of the MV bands does not insure a starry crown or prove that a true Christian experience exists. Christ did not come down to earth and join the most popular band or go along with the crowd. He chose to labor where he could be of the most service. E.

Council Outlines New Ministerial Internship Policy Eight new recommendations con- cerning the seminary ministerial training program were made at the 1954 Autumn Council of the Gen- eral Conference. The basis for the new provisions lies in the change of plans which, as a result of the 1953 Council, required graduates of theo- logical courses in SDA senior col- leges to come directly to the Semi- nary for a fifth year of training be- fore being appointed to a minister- ial internship. Such graduates are now (1) eli- gible to appointment as ministerial interns upon graduation; (2) to be sent by the employing local confer- ence to the Theological Seminary for the completion of the fifth year of the ministerial training after re- ceiving an internship and upon com- pletion of the first year of service in the field, provided that his serv- ice is satisfactory and that he gives promise of developing as a minis- ter; (3) to receive during the year at the seminary regular allowances under the Internship policy grant- ed by the General Conference, an equal amount to be granted by the employing conference, also receiv- ing the regular travel allowance for Seminary students as provided in the 1953 Council Ministerial Train- ing Policy; (4) to be accepted as meeting the requirements of the sec- ond year internship after the com- pletion of the fifth year of the min- isterial course in the Seminary; (5) to be under obligation to return to labor in the sponsoring conference following completion of the fifth year; (6) if not appointed to an in- ternship upon completion of the four years in the college course, to be eligible to be taken into confer- ence employment, and to be sent to the Seminary for the completion of the fifth year of ministerial train- ing the same as those appointed to internships; (7) to be eligible for appointment to internships if they do not receive appointments to in- ternships upon graduation from col- lege but corac to the Seminary on their own and they shall upon com- pletion of the fifth year (upon ap- pointment), receive salary at the second year internship rate. The eighth provision stated that the General Conference Committee be asked to bring into line the sec- tions of the 1953 Autumn Council action regarding ministerial train- ing which are affected by this re- vision.

The damage to the car at the right has been esti- mated at $300.00. Such pictures cease to startle us when we remove ourselves from scenes such as this in our minds. We think—this couldn't happen to me. You're wrong. This can and may happen to you if there is no change in pedestrian and drivers' attitudes on our campus. Kathy Prentice, like many complacent faculty members and students, thought—Polio? This couldn't happen to me! But it did. Kathy faced her problem and overcame it. The drivers of BOTH of these cars, no doubt thought—Accident?—this couldn't happen to me! But it did. When polio struck in our midst did we stand idly bv and wait for someone else to succumb? We STOOD, yes, but it was because of the Gamma Globulin we had absorbed in the backs of our laps. Was any preventive medicine dispensed to college drivers when this metal rending incident took place in the shade of our elementa- ry school? Put yourself in the driver's seat and imagine that instead of crushed metal and broken glass the results of your accident was a crushed body and the broken bones of some elementary school child who had chosen the wrong moment to step out into your path. THINK! Think in terms of YOU and the child you have just KILLED. Next week the majority of the Union College family will pack up a few belongings, board their v-8s and straight 6s and be on their way over the hills to grandmother's house. Nobody wants to spend Thanksgiving in a hospital or a mortuary, so keep a few of these things in mind. 1. Condition of the car 2. Condition of the driver 3. Special weather conditions 4. Speed 5. Obstruction of vision Two drivers participated in a road test on a 295-mile stretch of highway in Kansas. Their performance figures, under typical driving conditions are enlightening: Top Speed Average No. Cars Elapsed Reached Speed Passed Driving Time Driver "A" 65 46 126 6 hrs. 25 min. Driver "B" 50 43 62 6 hrs. 50 min. Driver A saved only 25 minutes in nearly 300 miles; he passed twice as many cars (each passing being a potential accident), used 11 per cent more gasoline, and 50 per cent more oil. Was it worth it?

The Developmental reading class, which is offered to all college students for a fee of $5. will meet the first week after Thanksgiving with class periods being twice weekly on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at S:40 a.m. The class will last for a period of five weeks. The following student testimon- ials from those having completed the class show the value former students place upon such a reading improvement program. "1 have gained at least 100 words per minute, and I enjoy reading much more." "This course has definitely helped me in reading with more speed and confidence." "I believe this class is very val- uable, and I highly recommend it to any college student if his read- ing rate and comprehension are low. The student could do his col- lege work much better as a result of this class. I only regret that I did not take this class earlier in my college work." Extra Tender Pie Crust Makes 2 two-crust pies.

Coys vs Martins On November 5, the Academy CLOCK TOWER campaign leaders and their assistants put on skits. Participants were Natalie Deming, Marilyn Harper, Nancy Howell, Glenna and Gloria Lewis, and Betty Carlisle. The boys were Harold Reeder, Clair Johnson, John Mc- Arthur, Calvin Mcllwain, James Retry, Lamont Hill, Bill Jarvis, and Roger Simpson. The girls were all gathered at Granny Coy's, working on a quilt- plus all the gossip of the valley and mountains. They received a letter from "Hephzibah" who was away at "Arnion College." Hephzibah was telling about the Martins and how the Coys were beating them. She wanted to be sure that Granny Coy got a "superscription" to the "Watchflower" from all the rela- tives. Bill Jarvis and Roger Simpson (who was dressed as a woman), got a letter in the mail but couldn't read it. It seems they had a son Homer (Shorty Reeder) who had been in school for ten years. The next scene was a school with La- mont Hill and several pupils who were studying their poetry lesson. Just then Bill and Roger strolled in with their mail and a live chick- en. Homer read the letter which asked for their school paper sub- scription with the assurance that the Martins would win. News Notes Mr. Griese is a lifesaver!

The sun has a sinking spell every night but rises again the next morning. by Jon Owens O Last Thursday night one of the high lights of the Sigma Iota Kappa social season took place during our regular club meeting. This eagerly anticipated event was the formal announcement of the officers of South hall's most exclusive social organization, the Bachelors' Club. These illustrious die hards turned out to be the following: president, Chapman Gillham; vice-presi- dent, Elmer Lampson; secretary, John Lindo; treas- urer, Charles Russell; circulation manager, Joe Eyman; and financier, John Westerberg. © One night not so long ago Bill Robinson needed an alarm clock. Since he didn't have one himself, he asked Russell Owens if he could borrow his clock for the night. Russell gave him permission, and told Bill just to go oil up and get it when he needed it. When the time came, Bill went up to third floor where Russell lived. However, he soon discovered that he didn't know just one little detail, Russell's room number. Undaunt- ed, Bill picked out a likely looking room and went in. Sure enough, there was an alarm clock, but an alarm clock with several feet of wire attached. Bill was prob- ably puzzled for a brief moment; but since the wire wasn't doing anything, he took the clock anyway. Next morning he asked Russell what the wire was for. "I don't know, that's not my clock," said Russell. "You must have been into the wrong room." © Three students (names withheld) in Marriage and Family class found out that consent was necessary on the part of both participants to make a marriage legal. They then promptly came to the conclusion that the union of Adam and Eve was not a legal mar- riage because Eve didn't give her consent.

The first number refers to the page on which the particular person is found, while the second number refers to his position on the page, counting from top to bottom. For example, 23/37 is really Theron Ware. (? Some of you may have wondered why such things as this are included in a column of this nature when they aren't particularly humorous.

Home Ec Heads Meet Mrs. Anne Dunn, head of the home economics department, at- tended the annual meeting of the American Dietetics Association, held in Philadelphia from October 26 to 29. This group is composed of those in the profession whose training and experience enable them to meet the standards of the associa- tion. The total membership is over ten thousand and includes repre- sentatives of colleges, hospitals, and research laboratories. Two of the Seventh-day Advent- ist denominational colleges have heads of home economics depart- ments who are members of this group. Mrs. Anne Dunn has taught at Union College since 1937, and has been head of the department since 1944. Mrs. Alice Marsh, head of the home economics department at Emmanuel Missionary College, and former teacher in the department at Union College, renresented her college at the Philadelphia meeting. Present also were Seventh-day Ad- ventist dietitians from three Ad- ventist hosnitals and sanitariums. Among the objectives of the as- sociation is to provide a medium for the exchange of information, es- pecially new theories and discov- eries in the rapidly-developing fHd of nutrition. INTRAMURALS WKW r Professor Jorgensen pions a chemistry test question on nucleus of the U235 atom, shown here on his desk. by JOYCE TORNOW Protons, Electrons, Neutrons. Lend me your ears— 1 come to tell you of a man, a good man who works for you, with you, among you—a man who has lived his life studying you and fol- lowing your characters. It is time now that you met this man and learned to know him as a friend. Look at him now—Dr. Guy G. Jorgensen, head of Union College Chemistry department—a man hap- py in his home and his work teach- ing others of the work that you do. Now I'll take you back to a little- town in Wisconsin where young Guy Jorgensen was growing up. building a character for a life of service. Follow him as he goes through grammar school with his brother and two sisters; to South Lancaster Academy where he first met vou, where you took hold of his interest and led him to Walla Walla College to deepen that interest. Student Jorgensen found many uses and new forms of you in the books lie carried to his studv room every evening. He discovered a use for you that wasn't in the physics or chemistry books the night he chose to wire his roommates' beds and send messages to them on a telegraph key. The reverse of the situation wasn't in the books either. A young business major held part of your young scientist's inter- est these years at school (a case of chemical affinity?), but even here you were a help to him. With the lab on the same floor as the typing room, early morning practice ses- sions became convenient. Even the atoms in cobalt chloride hexahy- drate (invisible ink) lent their properties to a good use in pro- moting this interest. But graduation found the gradu- ate headed for his first teaching job at the Hutchinson Theological Seminary, now Maplewood Acad- emv, with his new decree neatlv folded under his hat. Here he met. as one of his students, the young lady lie married following a vear in the army. Together they came to Union College. It was quite a different Union College when Guy C. Jorgensen became head of the chemistry and biology departments located in the south half of the basement of the administration building. And it was a young happy Mr. Jorgensen who grew with the college as he earned his M.S. and his Ph.D. degrees at the University of Nebraska and continued as head of the new chem- istry department in the new Science hall which was a dream come true for the doctor—a new home for you—well equipped, larger, and so much better in so many ways. Tragedy entered the life of your friend when his wife was taken from him. and again soon after when he was injured in an auto ac- cident and spent a month in the sanitarium at Loma Linda which kept him from teaching that semes- ter. 1951. 1952. Dr. Jorsensen was back in his lab at Union Colleie—once again lecturing in his own special way and keeping students informed of the work that you were dohig. Spring—1954. Dr. Guy C. lorgen- sen married Mrs. Hazel B. Sevrens. the business major from Walla Wal- la College. Today you will find Dr. Jorgen- sen on the second floor of the Sci- ence building telling his chemistry class about his intelligent dog Neon (he's a mixture, of course) whose 10 is K-10 (atomic number of Neon is 10) while most dogs are just K-9; or at his home playing the oiano for his wife; or you may even find him practicing a duet with his friend Dr. Reinmuth. Look him tin sometime and talk to him. You'll find as I have said—he is a good man and a friend of vours. r - DR. E. P.

The fact that none of the games has been a close battle makes it difficult to rate any of the teams. A percentage standing may compare a team to the other teams, but per- centage alone is nothing by which to rate a team. With the last games of the sea- son coming up, it will be interesting to see the teams fight for top places. Only eleven games remain yet to be played for the season. Right now the Koshers, Nine Knights, and Philadelphians are out for the first place berth.
