Brown and Rhodes Accept New Positions Two department chairmen have resigned their Union College posi- tions to accept positions in other colleges. Dr. J. Wesley Rhodes, chairman of the department of music, will become academic dean at O s h a w a Missionary college. Rhodes holds a Doctor of Education degree from Columbia University and has been at Union since 1951. Dr. Douglas K. Brown, chemistry department chairman, will be head of the chemistry department at Emmanuel Missionary college, Ber- rien Springs, Michigan. Dr. Brown received his doctorate in chemistry from the University of Nebraska and has been on the UC faculty since 1948. Other Staff Members Leave Also leaving this year will be sev- eral other faculty members, some of whom are leaving to accept other teaching positions and others who will be doing graduate work. H. Lloyd Leno, who came to Union in 1953, is leaving to accept a position on the faculty of Walla Walla College. Among his other duties in the music department, Mr. Leno has been director of the college concert band. Mrs. Darrell Lang, also of the music department faculty, is leav- ing after having spent two years at Union. Her husband is to enter medical school this fall. Leaving his position in the physics department is Jim Spauld- ing. He has been on faculty for the past two years. Spaulding plans to continue his graduate work. H. L. Caviness, who joined the faculty on a two-year basis to re- place Mr. Firth and Mr. Joice while they were on leave for graduate study, will be accepting a three- year grant for work on his doctor- ate degree. Caviness has been teaching in the business adminis- tration department. Entering the College of Medical Evangelists School of Medicine this fall will be Wayne Boyd. Boyd has been teaching this year in the bio- logy department. Alfred Watt, who has been teach- ing in the physics department this semester, will be joining the faculty of Southern Missionary College, Collegedaie, Tennessee. Resigning his position as acad- emy English and history teacher and college public relations head is Jerry Wiley. Wiley, who has been at Union since 1957, is joining the public relations staff of the College of Medical Evangelists. Two teachers from the Helen Hyatt Elementary School are leav- ing to accept other teaching posi- tions. Mrs. Lottie Warren has been at Union since 1956, and Mrs. Mabel Pacheco has been on the staff this past year. Academy Graduates Twenty-seven Seniors Graduation for some twenty-seven Union College Academy seniors took place Thursday evening at 8:00 p.m., May 26. Senator Carl T. Curtis was the guest speaker for the Commence- ment exercises. The other speakers included: Elder Arthur Hauck for the Consecration on May 20, and Elder W. A. Howe for Baccalaureate services held May 21. These Seniors of 1960 chose red and white as their class colors. Mr. Jerry Wiley was their sponsor. "The big week end is still ahead," says Senior Class President Darrell Lang. As graduation nears, 84 seniors are writing last minute term papers, finishing class projects and mailing announcements. "The biggest responsibility of be- ing president," Lang stated, "is making decisions that are repre- sentative of the whole class." During the year blue and white posters announced the senior re- citals. Class secretary Iris Ghaly was one of the five music majors performing this year. A large bou- Union College, Lincoln Nebraska quet of roses from her father in Egypt was a pleasant surprise at her recital. Sometimes a senior becomes so associated with his job that it is difficult to imagine the next year without him. Vicc President Gail Emde is one of these. She has been secretary to Miss Remley for four years. No senior plans to leave a lot of study for the last semester, but it usually ends up that way. Have any questions about the National Debt? Rex Turner, class treasurer, is pre- pared to answer them. Glen Farnsworth, class pastor, is one of the 15 religion majors grad- uating. Several will attend the sem- inary in Michigan next year. Glen plans to teach in Amarillo, Texas. But not all of a senior's time is used for study and work. Sergeant- at-Arms Jim Sasser takes time out for golf. In mid-August he will be going to California to begin his medical studies at CME. Graduation will not be the end of classes and studies for many. Already several seniors have made definite plans for graduate work. May 27, 1960 for Seniors Graduation ceremonies will honor Union College seniors May 28-30. Elder Theodore Carcich, president of the Central Union Conference, will speak at the consecration ser- vice Friday evening. Accepting his challenge for greater devotion to the Master's service will be seniors, Connie Wells and Glen Farnsworth. A senior trio, Iris Ghaly, Carolyn Rhodes and Bob Bockmann, will sing. The baccalaureate service will be held Sabbath morning. Associate Secretary of the General Confer- ence Missionary Volunteer Depart- ment, Elder E. L. Minchin, will speak. "Oh, Divine Redeemer" will be sung by the Golden Chords Chorale. Saturday evening has been desig- nated as class night. At this time the graduating class will honor their parents. President F. O. Rittenhouse of the Andrews University (formerly Potomac University) in Berrien Springs, Michigan, will deliver the commencement address Sunday morning. Musical features will be an instrumental ensemble and a vocal duet by Dr. J. W. Rhodes, chairman of the music department, and his daughter, Carolyn. Union Plans European Tour The forty-four members of the Union College European Tour Group will leave Lincoln by bus on June 10 for Montreal, en route to Europe. They will return on Aug- ust 16. Aside from crossing the Atlantic by ship, most travel in Europe will be by private charter bus. The members of the group come from sixteen different states and one foreign country. Most of them will be earning college credit in history and literature while they travel. The history will be taught by the tour director, Dr. Russell K. Nelson. Miss Merlene Ogden, of Emmanuel Msisionary College, will teach the literature. Mr. Dale Hep- ker, of Ozark Academy, will be the financial manager of the tour and Mrs. Wilma Hepker will be in charge of housing. The Hepkers are both experienced in foreign travel. One of the many outstanding features of this tour will be its ec- onomy. Dr. Nelson toured Europe last summer making preliminary plans. The average cost per night for rooms in Europe will be only $1.46. The following European countries will be visited: Scotland, Wales, England, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Yugoslavia, Italy, San Marino, France, and Belgium. The Union College stu- dents will have the opportunity to meet S.D.A. youth at schools in seven different countries. Several places of interest to students of the Reformation—such as Rome, Gen- eva, Worms, and the Waldensian Region—will be visited. The following is a list of the per- sons going on the European tour: Mrs. Christine Beyer, Miss Shirley Burk, Mr. Itoscoe DunJap^ Mrs. Roscoe Dunlap, Miss Sherry Eich- mann, Miss Anna Eisenman, Mrs. Nfjllie FritiiSCPMd P$g(JJill, Mrs. Pat Gill, Mrs. Inez Grossman, Mrs. MargEget^Gunderson, Mr. Kenneth (Continued' Five U (Departments i Announce New (lasses The home economics department is offering two new upper division courses in the field of interior dec - orating, both to be taught by Mrs. Higgins. Interior Design, three hours, will be a study into the var- ious periods of interior decorating and how they lend to contemporary living. Store experience will be a minimum of 100 hours of work in one of the Lincoln' stores under the direction of a trained interior dec- orator. The education department is of- fering two new courses. Both are two hour upper division. One is Counseling and Guidance and the other is High School Administra- tion. A two hour sophomore - junior class, Business and Professional Speaking, is to be offered by the speech department. Tho religion department an- nounces that the classes in Public Evangelism, Pastoral Work, Homi- letics and Practicum in Homclitics are being combined into a two sem- ester, six hour course called Intro- duction to the Ministry. A new course, Appologetics, is to be taught also. A three hour upper division course, Public welfare, is to be taught in the history department. Hill, Burke, Holbrook Will Join UC Faculty Announcement has been received from the president's office of the appointment of three new faculty members for next year. Doctor Melvin S. Hill, who is now at Pacific Union College in North- ern California, is to be the head of the Union College music depart- ment. We will also see him filling the position of director of the band and orchestra. Doctor Hill received his B.A. de- gree at La Sierra College and his Master's and Doctorate degrees from the University of Southern California. He has previously taught at New- bury Park Academy and Lodi Acad- emy, and since 1957 he has been on the staff at Pacific Union College. Mr. Kenneth Burke, a graduate of Southern Missionary College with a major in chemistry, is to be a part time teacher in the chem- istry department. Mr. Burke has been on our campus during the last semester working in our research department, and in addition to his teaching will continue working as the research assistant. Joining the religion department on a half-time basis will be Elder Delmer Holbrook. Elder Holbrook will be taking work at the Univer- sity of Nebraska toward his doc- torate. An alumni of Union, Hol- brook has just returned from mis- sion service in Peru. UC Alumni Called To New Positions Several Union College alumni have recently been called to hold new positions. Elder Reinhold Bietz, who has been serving as president of the Southern California confer- ence, has been elected president of the Pacific Union Conference. Elder Bietz has also served as president of the Southern New England con- ference and Missionary Volunteer secretary of the Michigan confer- ence. Elder Cree Sandefur is replacing Elder Bietz as president of the Southern California conference. Elder Sandefur has been serving as president of the Hawaiian Mission. The new principal of Maplewood A c a d m y will be another UC alumni, Elder Boyd E. Olson. At present he is the Educational and Missionary Volunteer secretary of the Northern Union. Elder Olson's position in the Northern Union will be taken up by Wisconsin Academy principal, F. W. Bieber, brother of the Union College president. 2 CLOCK TOWER May 27, 1960 farewell Address There comes a time in everyone's life when he realizes that he doesn't fulfill his duties all alone. This realization comes many times in the life of an editor of a school newspaper. She realizes that some- one else sells the ads, still another person makes out the budget, some- one else sets the type and many others write the articles themselves. To all those who have lent then- aid in the publishing of this volume of the CLOCK TOWER I wish to say a public thank you. First, I must say if nothing else, college has taught me to appreciate sponsors. They take the blame, while we students are given the bulk of the praise—if something turns out well. So, to our two spon- sors—Miss Virginia Shull, our edi- torial advisor, and Mr. H. L. Cavin- ess, our financial advisor—we say a special thanks. Then, to my associate editor, Penny Shell, and my assistant edi- tors, Evan Swanson and George Fischer, I want to say thank you, not only for the humor and fun they've added to our "dummy-past- ing" sessions, but also for the hours of work they have put in on the CLOCK TOWER. Our business manager, Rex Turn- er, has done well his part in figur- ing out the finances that keep the paper going. Selling ads isn't the easiest job on the staff, but it was capably handled this year by Monte Morris, first semester, and Calvin See, se- cond semester. Margie Cleveland, Pat Johnson, and Violet Evens have been a big help to business manager Turner by faithfully taking care of the cir- culation and secretary-treasurer's duties. A special big thank-you should go to our reporters and columnists whose responsibility it has been to turn in copy twice a month. The pictures this year have been taken and printed by our staff photographer, Kenneth Head. This has taken a great deal of time and we appreciate his help. Also, a most special vote of thanks goes from our entire staff to the College Press whose workers have worked so hard to get the CLOCK TOWER out on time. To Beth Wells and her staff, our staff for this year wishes the best of success as they continue our work next year. A.T. Opened and Closed Cases Probably the month of May opens and closes more chapters in the lives of Americans than any other month of the year with the excep- tion of December. Some are opened and closed actively with anticipa- tion or passively with apathy, others with mixed emotions of regret and a certain twinge of uncertainty. While the world will remember closed doors, May, 1960, for Caryl Chessman, the lawyer criminal, who lost his most important case with the state of California in a clash of desperation and justice, only a small corner of the world will remember the disappointments of this week at Union College, the clash of wasted moments and compre hensive examinations. The world will remember open doors May, 1960, for a princess and a commoner, a happy romance and the wedding of the royal and the common. It saw the royal yacht Britannia, heading for the open seas, destination unknown, bearing a happy couple on a new enterprise. But a small corner of the world will remember UC and the successful climax of a romance with books and learning. Within Union, as within all colleges, there are these two types of individuals: those who discover their scholastic bouquets to be only wild onions, and those who find their scholastic oysters filled with pearls and roses. Whichever category you fit into, remember the symbolic California gas chamber and the yacht Britannia. One ven tured a failure and the other success. Life is made up of opportunities and uncertainties; what is accomplished with these is entirely dependent upon the individual. And with this—whether the whole world knows, or whether the knowledge is confined to the campus of UC, those who criminally threaten society and those who squander and abuse opportunities in even a small corner of the world reflect the bitterness of some failures in society. The Armstrong-Joneses and those who have succeeded thus far in this small corner of the world—with special emphasis to ,the seniors of '60 on May 29—we offer congratulations and the very best to each of you. B.W. On Zkls Mill By Everett Dick No Seventh-day Adventist college has a finer tradition than that of the Golden Cords. Its fame has reached around the world and has become synonymous with Union College wherever Adventists are found. The class of 1906 was a small one (five members) and its members were at a loss to find an inexpen- sive gift for their alma mater. In a quandary, the secretary-treasur- er, J. P. Anderson, sought advice from some of the faculty members. Professor M. E. Kern, the history teacher, said that he wished some class would leave something that could be put up in the front of the chapel which would remind the students of the world task before them. Mr. Anderson also conferred with Miss Mertie Wheeler, the reg- istrar, and others. From these sug- gestions the class decided on a mis- sionary map of the world with a cord from the spot where the col- lege is located to each point in a foreign field where a former Union College student was laboring. Miss Wheeler and Matilda Erick- son, later a secretary in the General Conference MV department, with Professor Kern, the first head of the Missionary Volunteer depart- ment of the General Conference, helped with the details of the de- vice. Miss Wheeler sent a student down to the store in the village to get a ball of crochet yarn of a golden color and the device began to take shape, The loose end of the cord was tied to the location of Union on the map and the ball was un- rolled to the missionary's station, the cord cut and the end sewed to the map with a big needle. Miss Wheeler sent to Washington, D.C., for a list of missionaries and by comparing it with a list of form- er students, the class discovered for whom the first cords should be hung. At the time of graduation Emil Rosenwald, president of the class, presented the device which was on the chapel wall with cords hung.

Also published once during June end August. Outside I wish I were outside walking Instead of here, inside, Piled high with things undone. Besides I'm tired of walla-and roofs. Electric suns have left me weak; And spring has shown me sneak And rather unreliable, For I'd slip out the back Leaving lessons in unfinished stacks. I can't help it! I'm no clam or Mole to eternally live secure in bounds. I must be up, around! can hardly stand Another minute in this cage. Hot windows can make me to rage- And, Oh, how I wish I could wade That little silver stream by the Road home. And stop to see The early dogwood's blossomed boughs. Gerald Colvin Later a picture of the college and a map of the two hemispheres, one on each side of the building, made a handsomer device. From time to time new cords were hung, but not until the ad- ministration of President M. L. An- dreasen did the college establish the custom of an annual ceremony of hanging cords for those who had gone into foreign service during the past year. It was President Andrea- sen, also, who originated the slogan "Union, the College of the Golden Cords." In the late 1940's when the stu- dent body became so large that the gymnasium was used for chapel exercises, the present device with the clock tower representing the college was hung in the gymnasium. One of the first things many a visitor or new student asks to see is the famed device of the Golden Cords which mean so much to all Unionites. Up to this time 782 cords have been hung, and the annual ceremony is the highlight of the school year. An end of the very Golden Cord which is hung for each Unionite is clipped and sent to him as a reminder that "Union never forgets her own." Once Over Lightly ... ... By Len "Ole" Colson As you notice I've come out in the open. But if you have any notions of organizing a lynching movement, forget it. By the time your eyes are again focusing after tests, I will have flunked my 17 hours (father will be displeased—he always wanted an embalmer in the family), gased up my 78 horsepower bomb and made my escape to the northland. Floats on the breeze the sound of sunset bell, We pray God bless you, one and all! Speed-well, speed-well, fare-well, speed-well, speed-well! During the past few weeks I've been cleaning out my desk and here are some of the things I've come across which I bequeath to the fol- lowing persons: Jim Sasser—An old scorecard from the Chino Country Club, Cali- fornia. May you hit 'em long and true, old friend, and may we hear of your victory in the CME tourna- ment next year. Ann Thomas—Two old 8 x 10 sheets with "I shall pass my column in on time" written 1,000 times. My Teachers—A fortune cookie wrapper which reads: "Have pa- tience and understanding when making out grade reports." Ed Lamb—A book entitled: "How to Pick Baseball Winners." Don and Monte—One bucket of used ohms. Dan Jaramio—A travel catalog listing many secluded spots from which to hide from Uncle Sam. Beth Wells—A large economy size bottle of aspirins for her new post as Clock Tower Ed. Miles Kellogg—A book on how to raise parakeets. Nikita Krushchcv — A winning raffle ticket good for an all- expense, one-way trip to the moon. Dr. Nelson—A sheet of paper I wish he'd sign—"Good for one all- expense paid trip to Europe." The Accounting Office—The May bill. And to all of you, dear friends, I pass on this by Brahe: Fare-well, speed-well, now pales the evening sky, Fare-well, speed-well, 'tis time to say good-bye. J^editor Dear Editor: I dread this time of year! Not because of the term papers that are due, the research papers, or even the tests but because it's time for the students to sell back the books. Does this sound unbelievable? For one day I'd like to invite you to stand behind the counter and listen to the remarks of our students. Really, sometimes I'm ashamed. Don't they realize that these people don't have to come out and buy back their old psychology, trig, and personal adjustment books? Can't they see how they can't ex- pect the original price for a book just because they didn't study it? When the crowd cleared out, ] asked the buyer, "Do students in all schools complain like these stu- dents?" I was expecting him to say "Sure, it's just the way they are." But he didn't say that. He just hung his head and said, "I'd rather not say." You can draw your own conclusion. And so, I plead with you, if you don't feel you are getting enough out of your books, don't sell them or "grin and bear it." Need I sign? Parts and Departs By Don Bunch Rising from your bed, you quickly dress and unhesitatingly walk from your room. The halls are empty and dark for it is yet too early for any to be about. You pause before clos- ing the door to your room. This has been your home for four years. It is then you feel the first tinge of nostalgia. This is it, this is good- bye. Your steps echo in the stillness as you walk down the hall to the stairs. Funny, this time the dis- tance seems longer. Many times you have walked through these halls- steps as innumerable as are the memories associated with this building. The memories are good; yet, there are those that aren't, but you only think of those that are. You walk on down the steps to the front door. Stepping from the entrance to the sidewalk you pull your sweater closer about you, for it rained earlier and the chill of the night brings a slight shiver. Slowly your eyes wander across the freshly worked campus—it is still wet. In the moonlight the grass and foliage are a dark but rich green. The buildings have taken on a deep hue and the air is fresh and pure. This has been your world, and now the realization of the significance of "your college days" strikes you hard. You blink your eyes and walk on. The administration building draws nearer and you look up at the clock in the tower. You smile for you know time goes oil and the vigil of that tower is as sure as time itself. Here also behind these windows are memories. You see faces—old and new. Some are blur- red, others you recognize readily— they are your friends. You wonder when you will see them again. Quickly you walk on. The library brings remembrance of the solitude of the stacks, of committee meetings in the seminar room, of discussions in the brows- ing room, and of the long hours of study. You then realize you didn't spend enough time here, but now it is too late. You didn't know the Music Hall too well, but you know of the prac- tice rooms and you smile as ycu think of the sounds you've heard coming from thern. You begin to retrace your steps for across the campus is the Science Hall and it has been your domain. You're glad you're alone for this is one of those times that loneliness is comforting. This will be the last time you will see those ivy-covered walls. The quietness is deafening as you stand in front of your building. Those lecture rooms have done more than just explain life or de- monstrate laws and you'll meet those laboratory smells again, but not here. You'll hear those terms again, but not here. Here you have been introduced to the sciences of your Maker and suddenly you feel very, very small and insignificant- - you bow your head. Then as you look up you see the rising sun proclaiming a new day. With the quietness following you, you walk away. Zhe College View Question: "What project would you like to see the ASB undertake next year?" Janet Quam: A riding stable. Georgann Kindsvater: A new Ad Building Thayne Hagelgantz: A better dis- play of the Golden Cords in the gym, maybe a new picture. Ruth Ann Hagen: Picnic at Wau- bonsie Park for next year. Clinton Bond: New lawn furniture Milton Erhart: An FM radio station Sammy Roberts: A snack bar on our campus. Sharie Anderson: A prop room in the gym May 27, 1960 CLOCK TOWER 3 —J^uppa ^Jlieta By Betty Bell May is leaving fast. She has brought us her offerings of picnics, sunny days, wedding plans, and spring fever at its worst. But soon May will be no more. Let me reminisce a little. Picnic: For once it seems as if lady luck was with us and the day scheduled for was beautiful enough for the most-looked-forward-to outdoor event of the year. In fact, the day was so nice that a few other schools also decided it would be a nice day for a picnic. Rees Hall is proud of its sports-minded dean. I had been wondering why Miss Remley and Lolita had been out in the back of the dorm practicing ball lately. I hear via the grape-vine that Miss Remley used to be a terror on the baseball diamond in her tomboy days. At the writing of this column our dean is still in the hospital; but we hope that by the time it appears in print she will be walking up and down the corridors of Rees Hall again. Some of us may not pass again this way. This brings me to the wedding plans. For the last few weeks wedding announcements have been arriving to Rees Hall residents daily. It's interesting to hear some of the comments which are made over the announcements of some former schoolmate, who is going to take the leap: "Why, I didn't ever think she would!", "She'll be a beautiful bride," or "All my allowance this month will have to go for wedding presents. You'd think some of these friends would be thought- ful and put off the wedding." But I doubt if any of our right-hand watch people will be putting them off. Not if the happy look on Merritt MacLafferty and Gail Emde's faces upon the receiving of their marriage license is an indication of how all our engaged couples feel. We hate to see all the girls leave dormitory life; but . . . well . . . lots of happiness to you all! These warm days are getting us into the mood for the "ole swim- ming hole." And our annual water show did nothing but whet our ap- petites for the beach. Our mermaids—Sharon Chatfield, Violet Evans, Mary Alice Scott, Raemeda Cornelson, Karene Onstad, and Martha Lunt, captain—did a marvelous job of their formations. But no water show would be a water show without clowns; and Penny Shell and Patsy Gustin clowned us into gales of laughter. It's always nice to be around when traditions start and I do be- lieve that our Kappa Theta officers started one May 12 at our club meeting. Each senior girl was honored by a friend with a rose. The setting was our dim chapel with organ music and candle light. Not very many eyes were dry, especially when Christian sisters honored each other. I always feel sorry for an only child; he or she can't really appreciate the part of life that comes from having a brother or sister. Thank you, Kappa Theta officers, for starting this thoughtful tradition. And to those of you whom we honored: we're going to miss you—and we're not just saying that either! This is it for this year. School is almost over. To the senior girls—we'll miss you! Do come see us next year. To the brides-to-be—the best of everything as you embark on the best years of your life. To those of you returning next fall—hurry back. And to everyone—have a wonderfully relaxing summer. Senior Placements Elroy Axt Teaching, Corpus Christi Albert Beierle S.D.A.

The last paper, the last week of school, the last time we'll see some of our friends in this life. It seems appropriate that we distribute a few bouquets to people who have made this year a success. The Stu- dent Association would like to say a special "Thank you!" to Ann Thomas, Bety Bell and Connie Wells who deftly edited our pub- lications. To Miss Smith who led the Nominations and Elections Committee to their wise choices of leaders for the following school year, and to all other sponsors and committee members for performing their duties so well. May we also take this opportun- ity to extend to the S. A. officers for the '60-'61 school year our sin- cere trust that you will make next year an even better year for UNION COLLEGE! £. N. Dick Writes Review For SHS History Journal Dr. Everett Dick, of the Union College history department, has re- cently written a book review for the Journal of Southern History, a pub- lications; to Miss Smith who led Society, Dr. Dick reviewed the book, Frontier Life, by Edward Everett Dale, former head of the history department of the University of Oklahoma. Dr. Dick has himself written sev- eral books on frontier life, the best known of which is probably Sod- House Frontier. President Bieber Is Sworn To Office Of Grandfather President David Bieber was offic- ially made a commander in the "kiddie corps" during last Friday's convocation exercises. The presentation marked official recognition of Bieber's entry into the grandfather ranks. His son and daughter-in-law presented him with a bouncing baby girl recently. President Bieber vowed to per- form the "duties" of his new office to the best of his ability. Chief Justice Ralph Darrough, who earlier swore in newly-elected Associated Student Body President Gary Grimes, gave Bieber the symbol of his -new office—a pair of leather slippers. appa By Monte Burns Well, this is it. For nine busy months I've been just waiting for the opportunity to take my last tests and write my final dorm column. The time has now arrived and it isn't without a certain feeling of sad- ness that I pack up all my belongings and head for home. We are all inclined at times to think, "dear old Union" is still a pretty won- derful place! One can go a long way before he can match the buoyant Christian atmosphere which pervades this campus! By now most of you are either all packed and ready to leave for home, or are at least in the process of packing. Isn't it astounding the volume of "junk" that one accumulates during a school year? He doesn't even realize half the "stuff" exists until he starts pulling things apart in an attempt to get prepared to commence to begin to start to get ready to leave. Down underneath, way back behind or clear up on top of everything one may begin to pull items out that one lost during the first week of school. Marvelous how they could have stayed hidden so long! Then as one cleans out one's desk drawers he has to read carefully every single paper, pamphlet or letter in order to see whether to keep it or throw it away. Old exams, student activity cards, "Dear John" letters, worship absence slips, an occasional gum wrapper' and dozens of other various pieces of nondescript keepsakes. Am I not right? Or am I the only one in school who has a desk drawer like that? Then there is the glorious and well nigh impossible task of cram- ming, poking, and stuffing in some orderly or disorderly fashion a trunkload of "merchandise" into a trunkful of space. This one thing in itself is a scientific marvel. Another marvel is how there is any room left for people to accompany the overstuffed auto-mo-wreck on its journey home. However you look at it, the whole affair presents a very complicated and delicate situation! Whatever you do, don't forget your toothbrush. It would be tragic to have to retrace a few hundred miles of steps just to retrieve this minor necessity! Well, farewell everyone. Bon Voyage, Auf Wiedersehen and all that sort of noise. To those who will return, we'll see you next year. And to those who are leaving nevermore to walk the campus under the observant eye of the clocktower, keep up the good work begun here and always live up to the standards to which you have conformed and strived to abide by during these past few years at Union College Wherever the divergent paths of life may lead you in your future en- deavors, remember that while you may not now be privileged to be be at the other end of a golden cord there is a day coming when we may all meet in a golden city and be wearing golden crowns. Let this goal reign utmost in your life and may the principles upon which this city is founded be the rod by which you measure your earthly suc- cess.

By Patsy Gustin cepted, and filed in preparation for This week end 96 seniors will graduate, and each of them owes a big thanks to one of the staff whose duties are possibly least understood—Miss Anderson. Each graduation climaxes four or more years of hard work on the part of the graduates, but perhaps unbe- knowns to them it also represents over a year of careful observation and guidance from another source. Probably the majority of seniors would not be graduating were it not for the constant "checking up" of Miss Anderson, College Registrar. This process begins sometime during a student's junior year. Each junior is "checked-up"—How many hours are needed to graduate? Any deficiencies? Does he have enough upper division hours? How many hours in his major and minor fields? Endless questions must be asked and carefully answered doz- ens of time before the senior sed- ately marches down the aisle and receives his Baccalaureate degree. Already this year the current jun- iors have been "checked-up" in preparation for next year, and be- fore May rolls around again the brown jackets containing their check-sheets will be almost worn out. But what does a college registrar do from January to January besides patiently guide (or perhaps push) each class of seniors toward grad- uation day? Let us glance at just a few of the duties Miss Anderson must supervise or do herself. Application blanks pouring into the office must be processed, ac- registration; all transcripts receiv- ed from transfer students must be evaluated and recorded. Miss And- erson is the school's statistician. Dozens of requests pour into the office for surveys ranging from, "the number of students whose par- ents are mechanics," to "how many students dropped out of General Zoo. in 1957." She must see and okay each drop voucher that comes into the office; read each transcript that leaves the office; supervise the keeping of chapel records, grade records, high school trans- cripts, computing G. P. A.'s, and sending out grades each nine weeks. As a little "sidelight" she is the secretary for the Admissions, Ac- ademic Standards, Administrative Council, and Curriculum Commit- tees and Clerk of the Senate. These committees consume the major part of several afternoons a week. Although the job of registrar de- mands a good "full-time," she man- ages to find time to be active in several clubs. She is a regular mem- ber of the Campus Women's Club in addition to being a participating member of several clubs organized purely for social and intellectual pursuits. Despite her busy schedule, she often takes time out to chat with a struggling new student who finds the bulletin hopelessly puzzling, or counsel an "oldster" on a curric- ulum conflict. Her sincere Christian ways and patient efficiency have helped lessen the "pain" of many of our college days. 4 CLOCK TOWER Pipe Organ To Be Installed in Engel Hall Major improvements in Union's campus facilities to be effected im- mediately or in the near future were announced by President Bie ber in the final convocation pro- gram of the year.

Dealy enters the College View church to begin his day's activities. by Betty Bell "Elder Dealy, how does it happen that you and your wife decided to settle down here in Lincoln, after you retired from conference work?" The man to whom I addressed this question is a familiar figure to most of us. We see him often making sure that our College View Church is in good condition, but I had never known why it was that he choose to stay here with us in place of going to some area more popular as a retirement place. Elder Dealy took a copy of The Desire of Ages from the book shelf and read this quotation from pages 224 and 225: God never leads His children otherwise than they would choose to be led, if they could see the end from the beginning, and dis- cern the glory of the purpose which they are fulfilling as co- workers with Him. When he finished, this is the story he told. He came to Union College as a young man in 1902, but because of lack of finances, he was forced to drop out of college after two years. For the next eleven years he taught in public school, with a twinkle in his eye Elder Dealy added that about all he really learned from that experience was how to push a broom. At the end of those eleven years he went back to college; this time at Walla Walla,. It was here he met the young school teacher who be- came his wife. After leaving Walla Walla, Elder and Mrs. Dealy served the Lord in the conference treasurer's work for thirty-one years. They are the parents of three children, two boys and one girl. When the time came for Elder Dealy to retire, he and his wife were faced with deciding where they should live. They both wanted to continue their active service to humanity, and the problem they faced was that of finding a place in which both of them were needed. Mrs. Dealy, who has her M. A. degree, had several offers to teach, but there seemed to be no place where they could both work. Very luckily for the College View community they choose to stay in Lincoln, Elder Dealy as the church custodian and Mrs. Dealy as a school teacher. Now they work together at the church. The unpreten- tious, but very valuable service this couple renders to our community is certainly much appreciated. Elder and Mrs. Dealy are the proud grandparents of eight grand- children. They are a fine, stalwart Seventh-day Adventist couple who are most thankful as they look back, that they have always followed the Lord's leading.
