UNION COLLEGE LIBRARY SEP 19 1943 .INCOLN, NEBRASKA tor cr VOL. XIX UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, AUGUST 31, 1943 NO. 3 VOICE OF PROPHECY HOLDS MEETING HERE EVANGELIST VENDEN BEGINS WORK IN CITY As part of its publicity pro- gram, the Voice of Prophecy radio group conducted one of its broadcasts over the loud speaker system in the Union College Audi- torium at 7:45 p.m. on August 23. Although the program did not go on the air to the country as it does every Sunday evening, yet it was held with the same measure of earnestness and attendant suc- cess that has characterized the the regular hemisphere-wide lioad- casts. At the present time the religious group broadcasts over 250 sta- tions in this country and by means of another 50 stations is heard over the western hemisphere. It is the second most popular relig- ious program in this country, stated Elder F. W. Detamore, manager and announcer, in his remarks during the Union College broad- cast. Elder Detamore was pastor of the Kansas City, Missouri S. D. A. church before he joined the well-known religious broad- cast. Elder H. M. S. Richards, form- erly union evangelist for the Pacific Union Conference, heads the gos- pel organization. He conducted public meetings in many states including California, Arizona, and Oregon before beginning his radio work. The King's Heralds, well-known radio quartet which has been with the Voice of Prophecy since its beginning, thrilled the more than 800 persons with their presenta- tion of gospel hymns. The quar- tet sang professionally for many years before joining the gospel- spreading company. "America is destined by Bible prophecy to be the leading nation (See Voice page 3) Former Music Head's Score Published (Printed by courtesy, Camp Barkeley News, Camp Barkeley, Texas, August 20, 1943) One of the happier company clerks in MRTC last week was Mu- sician Perry W. Beach, T-5, Co. D, 53d. Med. Tng. Bn. The glow was caused by reception of the first printed copy of his two-piano arrangement of Mendelssohn's "Rondo Capriccioso." Two years 0' after sale of the manuscript to one of the big music publishing firms, Corporal Beach could show the (See Beach page 4) Women Give Old Fashioned Party Do you remember the styles long ago? 'Long, long ago—long, long ago." Bustles and basques! Skirts from waist down to toe! Yes, they were long—long ago. A band number directed by Darleen Lenz opened the Old Fashion Lawn Party given for the men of South Hall by the women of North Hall on the evening of August 15. The Mistress of Cere- monies, Mercedes England, read "The Old Wooden Tub," and then introduced a vocal duet and encore by Marcella Schmidt and Madonna Lacy. Two musical readings were given by Janette Kemper. Continuing the evening enter- tainment, "The Gibson Girl Trio" composed of Darleen Lenz, Betty Bruntzel and Helen Tarasenko sang a medley of old favorites. A vocal solo by Delphia Dufloth, "Come to the Fair," accompanied by a pantomime followed. Audra Wood and Loretta Loewen played a selection on two pianos. "The Four-story Flat Sextette," Dor- othy McConaughey, Betty Brunt- zel, Loretta Loewen, Darleen Lenz, and Evelyn and Helen Tarasenko sang "Can't You Hear Me Calling, Caroline?" The fellows then called their "Carolines" to a march while the band played on. Thoroughly exhausted by the snappy march all were refreshed by punch, served on the North Hall porch. (See Party page 4) New Registration Process Explained The college which never intro- duces anything new into its pro- gram is at a stand still and is not progressing enough for today's world. Union College is bringing something new into the old regis- tration procedure this year. Registration for both semesters will take place at the beginning of the school year. Arrange- ments are being made for new, im- proved "registration books," con- taining class cards and program cards which have been revised to simplify registration. Included in the book will be an instruction (See Registration page 2) Suture Sept. 3, Friday 7:45 p.m., First meeting of regional campmeet- ing 7:57 p.m., Sunset Sept. 4, Sabbath 8:00 a.m., Morning devotion 9:30 a.m., Sabbath School 11:00 a.m., Sabbath Sermon 7:55 p.m., Sunset Sept. 10, Friday 7:45 p.m., Vespers 7:45 p.m., Sunset Sept 11, Sabbath 9:30 a.m., Sabbath School 11:00 a.m., Sabbath Sermon 7:43 p.m., Sunset Sept 12, Sunday 9:00 a.m., Registration, f o r both semesters, of all students on the campus, except freshmen who have not taken place- ment tests.

Robert was born in Brazil, South America, January 26, 1925 while his parents were missionaries in that country. He returned to this country with his parents and studied at the Sheyenne River Academy, North Dakota, having graduated there this past spring. Having been baptized at the age of 15, Robert showed through his living that he was a Christian and ready for what God permitted in his life. He was an appreciative and home- loving boy. Left io mourn are Robert's parents, brother Delmer who is a sophomore at Union Col- lege, a sister, two grandmothers, two aunts, two uncles and two cousins. Elder J. W. Rowland. in- structor in religion and Biblical languages at Union, spoke com- fortingly at the services in the College View church on July 26. He was assisted by E. M. Cadwallader, assistant pro- fessor of education and psy- chology. 'Interment was in the College . View cemetery. All dormitory students met in the college administration building and marched over to the church as a group for the service. English Department Head Accepts Call Mr. L. W. Cobb, head of the English department at Union, has accepted a call to connect with the similar department at Washington Missionary College, Washington, D. C. After his graduation from Union College in 1913, Mr. Cobb ob- tained his first advanced degree from the University of Nebraska. Since that time he has taught at Canadian Junior College and at Pacific Union College. During the administration of W. E. Nelson at Pacific Union College, Mr. Cobb (See Cobb page 3) Elder D. E. Venden, evangelist- pastor of the famous Venden brothers team, has arrived in Lin- coln to conduct a series of public meetings. He preached his first sermon in the College View church on Sabbath, August 21 at 11 a.m. For 20 years the Venden bro- thers have teamed together in the work of evangelizing New York City, Philadelphia, Detroit and other large cities of America. They are one of the outstanding evan- gelistic teams in the country. Until accepting the present call to Ne- braska, Elder D. E. Venden was associated with his brother in Flint, Michigan. According to Elder W. H. Ho- ward, president of the Nebraska conference, a call has been -sent through the General Conference of S. D. A. to Elder M. L. Venden, the other brother of the team. If this call is accepted, the two Ven- den brothers will begin evangel- istic campaigns in Lincoln in the near future. Both Venden brothers have al- ternated in using their talents of singing and speaking the gospel during their 20 years of ministry to thousands of persons. They have devoted their lives since graduation at Walla Walla College, Washington, to saving souls for Christ. Elder D. E. Venden's family has also arrived in Lincoln. Two of his daughters will attend the Union College Academy and the other daughter will he a freshman in college. VolunteerCrewWorks In Processing Food The processing of corn means "work" and "fun" at Union Col- lege. Especially, when the product is measured by the ton! Tuesday, August 17, was a big day in the kitchen. Any visitor who happened in would have been greeted at the doorway by President Cossen- tine, wearing a big white apron and with butcher knife in hand. His was the first job in the line of production. which consisted of chopping off the shucks. Shucking, cleaning, cooking, cutting, packing and shipping made up the steps in the process of production that brought the total up to 2780 pounds of frozen corn.

But we will! The youth today who have the will to win—will win. What do you desire to win for yourself? The answer should be, "to win a better way of life for myself—my country—the world, and its posterity." Just as Pearl Harbor aroused our nation to immediate action with limitless preparation, it should have aroused you to the realization that now is the time for you to launch out in an all out program. A program to win the preparation you need in accomplishing that which you desire to win. You can- not sit on the sideline saying "Remember Pearl Harbor" or "Keep 'em rolling" while you are accomplishing no more than you had before the day of December 7. The first step in the will to win should include a college education. It is an educated world today and we must be educated to keep astride with the rapid moving events and to meet the world on its own ground. "Times are changing but God and the world still need workers who have the proper preparation and training to take their places in the massive panorama of man's mighty endeavor to better him- self and his world." If you determine to get the preparation you need, the will to win, will win! M. E. Should I Qv to College? Hundreds of young people are asking themselves the ques- tions: Should I start to college under the world conditions which exist at the present time? Would it pay to begin when I may have only one semester before going into the army? Since there is much work available and wages high, should I take a good job while I can get one? How much will college mean to me with the program accelerated as it is? My answer to such questions is, Yes! Get all the education possible before the depression which inevitably follows a war. During a depression there is not as much work available as there is during the war, and this also means that there is not as much money for school expenses. The need for better trained workers is increasing, so by all means get this training at a good school now. Come to Union College. We are proud to help our country and glad to be called Americans, but until Uncle Sam points his finger at you and says, "Come," do all you possibly can to enter school and make the most of the opportunities offered so you may he able to serve more efficiently in whatever line of work in which you may be engaged. Union College will soon open its doors to new students and old students and there is no reason why this shouldn't be one of the very best school years in the history of the school, so we are planning on YOU and YOU to be here. S. R. CLOCK TOWER, AUGUST 31, 1943 Nebraska's Newest Linotype at Union In the Union College Press, at the north end of the type-room, stands one of its most important peices of machinery—the Linotype. It is a composing machine re- placing, to a great extent, the laborious task of setting type by hand. Through the manipulation of a keyboard similar to that of a typewriter, matrices, or small brass units having characters indented in their edges, are released from a magazine. These matrices are as- sembled into justified lines which are "sent up." "Sending it up" in- cludes the automatic processes of pouring hot type metal into the indented characters, re-distributing the matrices to their proper places in the magazine and returning a metal slug with the raised letters on it ready to be composed into pages. The Union College Press has the distinction of owning the newest Linotype machine in Nebraska. It was purchased in the latter part of 1942. In spite of the large in- itial cost of the machine it is one which will pay for itself in a com- paratively short time in speed of operation and in improved work- manship. Its present operator, Miss Laura Jaynes of Minneapolis, Minnesota, joined the Union College Press working staff in July and will con- thue to work at the Linotype along with her studying during the school year. She received her training at the College Press, At- lantic Union College, South Lan- caster, Massachusetts. College Library Favorite tt Haunt 11 The library is situated on the northwest corner of our spacious campus. This building has been the favorite "haunt" of the stu- dents this summer. The cool, quiet surroundings are conducive to con- centration and study. The Rees Browsing Room is a popular place. Many students spend their leisure time browsing through the books to catch up on their hobby, or just for a few min- utes of relaxation. This room is a miniature library containing the latest books of interest. The Reference Room contains several sets of encyclopedias, year- books, bound magazines, current magazines and newspapers. It is an ideal place to study because of the reference material that is avail- able. Several new books have been added to the library. Among these are books of science, travel, and literature. The most popular new hooks are those about the daring bravery of men in the service of our country today. Now is the time to become better acquainted with the library and make the books there an asset to your education. South Hall News Delmer "Dink" Holbrook is visit- ing m Colorado for a few days. Guess whom? Stanley Jensen spent week- end of August 1 and 2 at his home in Iowa. He was recently given a medical discharge from the army. Richard Carter, Milton John- son, Ed Nordstrom, Burt Parker, Bill Spanos, Alan Albertson, Stan- ley Kirk, John McIntosh, Simon Roehl, and Paul Shakespeare have been accepted at the College of Medical Evangelists. Merlin Woes- Der and Glenn Wiltse have already begun their studies at Loma Linda. A number of former Unionites have visited South Hall recently. Among them were Dick Wilmot, Pfc. Victor Zimchek, and Pvt. Dan Greene. Dais is completing medi- cine in Omaha and will receive Isis 1st Lieutenant's commission soon. Pre-nurses Enter Training Schools You remember the prenursing students, don't you? They were the girls who suffered through cat lab and hunted for microbes under the patient supervision of the lab as- sistants. Some of them are just vacationing this summer, getting ready for the strenuous three years ahead, others have been working or taking additional school work. Ruby Ramesbothom is at her home in Iowa, this summer, look- ing forward to entering training at Boulder for the first of Septem- ber. • The Loma Linda School of Nursing will welcome the follow- ing girls next fall: Dolores Wiltse, Evelyn Sherrig, and Eileen Cobb. Jaunita Lamb and Toshiko Chi- nen will take their training at the Washington, D. C., Sanitarium. Across the continent, Betty Ky- nell and Sarah Jane Goelitzer will attend White Memorial Hospital School of Nursing. Desa Bonjour, who has been at her home in Iowa during the summer, will be a student in the Glendale School of Nursing, Glen- dale, California. After completing chemistry in the Union College summer session, Darline Lawson will enter the Boulder School of Nursing, Colo- rado. Pat Miller will also begin her nurse's training at Boulder this fall. Registration . . . (Continued from page 1) sheet which will help each student to fill out his book correctly. The form of the class schedule is also being changed somewhat, to make registration for both sem- esters easier. Every student will be able to see at a glance just how many conflicts he might have. Seniors Work in Various Fields Adel Kougl is working in the Health Food Store in Denver as dietetic advisor and clerical worker. Claude Turner is doing evangel- istic work in Sterling, Colorado, in a district of five churches and one Sabbath School. He Was coun- selor at Junior Camp. Claude says "I thought I was busy at college, but I believe I had it pretty easy." Jack Bowers is working in Law- renceburg, Kentucky, in a series of public meetings with Elder H. D. Colburn. His first work as an intern in the Kentucky-Tennessee Conference was that of counselor and swimming instructor at the Junior Camp. He likes Kentucky and his work. John Boyd is enjoying his work very much in connection with meetings in Fort Worth, Texas. J. Franklin Ashlock is at South- ern Junior College in Tennessee where he will teach Bible. Glenn Davenport is in Okla- homa City getting ready to teach in its junior academy. Esther Groom has begun her work at Loma Linda Dietetic School. Gideon Haas—ministerial intern in Wyoming.

Jim Stevens—ministerial intern at Joplin, Missouri. Ruth Wightman—taking treat- ments at Boulder-Colorado Sani- tarium. Ernest Rogers—ministerial intern in Tennessee. Visitors Conduct Sabbath Services In his sermon on August 7, Elder T. S. Copeland, Educational and Missionary Volunteer Secre- tary of the Nebraska Conference, stressed the importance of having our own church schools. He point- ed nut the necessity of our teach- ers teaching church schools rather than teaching public schools. Elder Copeland was formerly the Edu- cational and M. V. Secretary of the Georgia-Cumberland Conference. Elder J. 0. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson stopped over the week-end to visit their sons John and Harold, students at Union College. Elder Wilson spoke at the church ser- vice on August 14, telling some very interesting experiences they had while missionaries in Burma. The Wilsons are on their way to Atlantic Union College where he is to teach Burmese as a part of the "Spirit of Missions" program.

MILLER PAME CLOCK TOWER, AUGUST 31, 1943 3 New Faculty Members Arrive U. C. Academy One of the Best Sometimes a son gains promin- ence and glory because of the achievements of the father. The son's record may or may not be deserving of merit. Union College Academy is closely affiliated with Union College. Unlike the son in the above illustration the Academy is easily passed by unobserved, just as a brilliant light may seem dim when in close proximity to a still more brilliant light. Union College Academy has a history of more than fifty years to its credit and a record of no mean accomplishments. This academy advertises "Standards of Excel- lence" as a slogan. It has the high- est possible rating with the educa- tional department of the State of Nebraska and the North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. This same rating is also accorded by the Educational Department of the General Con- ference. It may interest our readers to know that the Academy gained recognition and accreditement with the North Central Association sev- eral years before the college was so recognized. What academy can boast the excellence found in our modern library, our large well equipped gymnasium with its large skating floor, and our newly equipped furniture factory and broom shop to say nothing of our many other industries? We profit from our close affiliation with the college and are proud that we are part of the "College of the Golden Cords." Furthermore, the academy is still growing and we belive that the history of each succeeding year will be better so that the College will be justly proud of the Aca- demy. Food... (Continued from page 1) kitchen crew and President Cos- sentine were: Mr .Hartman, Dr. and Mrs. Blue, Dr. Marsh, Mr. Christensen, Miss Stoddard and her aunt, and representatives from the library, business office, regis- trar's office, furniture factory, and chemistry laboratory. The group made up a theme song to the tune of the college pep song. It went like this — Slinga' de corn and pusha' de knife along! Full-Time Worker Tells Her Story R-r-r-ring! That was the alarm clock sounding 6:32 and the full- time worker sleepily and wearily gets out of bed, tries hard to wake up, and gets ready for 7:00 break- fast. She is firmly resolving, on this nice Sunday morning that she must get in her full quota of hours this week. After breakfast she steps more lively now to her place of work wherever it may be: the book- bindery, library, kitchen, laundry, office, or one of the other indus- tries on the college campus. Once there, she greets her boss with a cheery good-morning and immedi- ately proceeds with her work. At first the time goes by slowly, but before long it is noon and she gets a wholesome dinner at the dining hall. There she meets her room- mate and calls in a whisper, "Any mail?" and as is usually the case she sadly answers, "No." At one o'clock she is again at work until 5:30 when she comes to her room to do a few hurried necessities and then leaves again for supper. After supper is the wor- ship period in which she receives fresh courage to meet another day. She tries to spend the evening profitably by writing letters, meet- ing with the church choir, going skating, or other activities that may be scheduled for the evening. So goes the week, day by day, as she patiently labors on, still keeping before her the goal of her full quota of hours. At last, Fri- day afternoon is here and her supervisor calmly states that it is time to quit. The full-time worker gathers her time sheets to- gether and anxiously counts the hours she has put in. To her dis- may she finds that she is exactly thirty minutes short of her goal! Rather dishearteningly she sighs, but beneath her breath says, "I'll surely get it next week!" Cobb, . . (Continued from page 1) served as business manager there. During the three years that Mr. Cobb headed the English Depart- ment at Union, he revealed in his actions and his teaching that he pradtised true Christianity. His living exemplified his teaching. To Mr. Cobb, with his wife and daughter, Union College extends wishes of God's most bountiful blessings in their new field of labor. Mr. W. Fletcher Tarr comes to Union College as head of the de- partment of English. Mr. Tarr was born in South Africa where he taught for several years in Helder- berg College and Witwatersrand Technical College. Later, he was dean and professor of English and speech at Bethel Training College. He received his B. A. from Pacific Union College and also the Uni- versity of South Africa and his M. A. from University of Red- lands, California. Voice . . . (Continued from page 1) of earth in these last days," de- clared Evangelist Richards during his radio address. "But under no circumstances," continued t h e speaker, "should we permit our liberties of thought and religion to be taken from us in order to make our country great." Announcer-manager Detamore declared during the evening's pro- gram that about 3,000,000 persons hear the Sunday evening broad- casts. These 3,000,000 persons arc not the same every week, which means that the actual audience is much greater than this figure represents. Every day brings to the radio group with headquarters in Glendale, California, the oppor- tunity to read an average of 1,000 letters of appreciation for the broadcasts and requests for the Bible correspondence lessons. Nation-wide broadcasts of the Voice of Prophecy programs began Sunday evening, January 4, 1942. During one and a half years this religious radio organization has been successful to a degree far greater than hoped for by even the most enthusiastic of its supor- ters. Mr. Winton Beaven becomes in- structor of Speech at Union College. Mr. Beaven graduated from Atlantic Union College, South Lancaster, Massachusetts, received his M. A. from Clark University, Massachusetts, and is now doing graduate work at Michigan Uni- versity, Ann Arbor. At Atlantic Union College, Mr. Beaven was dean of men in addition to his duties as instructor of speech. Regional Meeting Commences Sept.3 A regional camp meeting for the members of the southeastern part of Nebraska will be held in the College View church over the weekend of September 3-5. Be- cause of the difficulties in travelling and a desire to comply with gov- ernment requests to do only ne- cessary travelling, the Nebraska Dr. E. M. Hause, '22, returns to his Alma Mater as instructor of history. Dr. Hause received his A. from the University of Ne- braska and Ph. D. from North- western University. Dr. Hause has served as head of the depart- ment of history at Broadview College, Atlantic Union College, and recently* at State Teacher's College, Mayville, North Dakota. Conference is holding regional campmeetings throughout the state instead of the customary general campmeeting at one location. Elder E. E. Andross of the Gen- eral Conference of S. D. A. will be present through the session. Elder C. Wilson, president of the Central Union Conference will also attend the meetings. Other visitors will include Elder R. E. Crawford, manager of the periodi- cal department of the Southern Publishing Association. (Fold Here) 0 a. co CD co co 0 a ,.,. r " :,.

But I've be'n hearin'--have you? 'At Jean Rees is back from California. She's workin' as sten- ographer in the Christian Record 'cross the street. The ol' sander's buz'n in the Ad buildin.' Goin' to have some beautiful floors 'fore long. Un' that's not all—someone upset the paint can on fifth floor and most all the rooms down to the base- ment have be'n brightened up by a splash of paint. Elsie Mae and Bill Taylor ar- rived in town. Bill's workin' in the furniture factory and will be in school next year. Mrs. Taylor will be remembered as the former Elsie Mae Dennis. Virgene "Westie" Westermeyer had a birthday and the Registrar's office force had ice cream (per of- fice style—that is, cones) in cele- bration of the e—vent. The DeVices treked off to Can- ada for a vacation. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Little have be'n 'round most of the summer. Mr. Little teaches English at Walla Walla. After finishin' summer school in Chicago, Miss Floda Smith, our librarian, has be'n vacationin' in South Dakota. I've be'n hearin' she'll be back August 17 or 18. Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Martin will be among our students this fall. They have already moved in the village. Be'n hearin' that the girls wish they had a croquet set like the fellows. ( But they wouldn't tell them.) There's hardly be'n an hour this summer when the game hasn't be'n runnin' neck 'n neck. Anyone on the campus can see the "long 'n short" of the game at a glance. Maynard "Long" Loewen and Tom "Short" Oshiro are ardent fans. Darleen's purty happy 'bout the whole affair! Her parents Mr. and Mrs. W. 0. Lenz and sister, Betty Jo, have moved here to stay. Mr. Lenz is employed by the college. Ea 'n Russel Hagen slipped 'way from their duties to take a week- end visit in Iowa with Ila's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Nelson. The army has called another Unionite, Norman Krogstad. Mrs. Krogstad, the former Eleanor Cowles will continue as music in- structor at Enterprise Academy. Vacations! We're all takin' our turns, but 'bout now we're all kinda' anxious for school to begin. Be'n hearin' bout the new reg- istration procedure. Miss Lea says the new plan is much more mod- ern. Dr. Dick is writin' a new book— I've be'n hearin' it'll be down t' earth 'cause he's be'n experimentin' as a dirt farmer in his victory garden this summer. And that the girls of North Hall enjoyed havin' Miss Cowdrick as their guest a part of the summer. "I just had to come back to Union once more," said Gertrude Watson, as she returned for a visit with all her friends before going to California to start her nurses training course. Union should have a fine orches- tra this year—due to all the new talent that's comin' in, I've be'n hearin'. How terrible to have mumps! That's what Betty Hiedemann and Marcy Hartman say. They both have reasons for their belief. Miss Lea had a supper for her office force one evenin'. ( But, 'course, Betty had the mumps.) The apple pie was three inches thick. "Happy Birthday, Miss Rees!" went ringing through the halls for a big surprise as Miss Rees walked into the lobby, the evening of her birthday. While she was yet in- quiring why her girls were up so late, and how did we find out, a gift from all was thrust into her arms. (We dood it!) The number of applications that are in from Inter-America indi- cate that we are going to have a large group from the southland. The first wedding ever to be held in the chapel of Maplewood Academy was that of the former Miss Anna Magdanz to Mr. Carroll Hershey. IN THE ARMY I still haven't forgotten old Un- ion. I look back many times to the days when I was a student there and someday I hope to resume my role as a student again. I invite any of my friends in the service or at Union to correspond with me.

Jim earned a full scholarship can- vassing this summer and will be working at the college awaiting the opening of school. Etna Rose, who has been work- ing in the library this summer, left to teach school in Colorado. (That'll be another "Unionite" in the field to write to—'bout time for a Clock Tower campaign).

Sorry, But We Have To Raise the Price This announcement particularly concerns students ( especially mini- sterial and medical) and the fa- culties of our colleges and aca- demies who are subscribers to The Ministry magazine. Due to the war and rising costs, nearly every journal in the denomination has been forced to raise its price. We are glad that we have not been compelled to increase our rates until the present. The regu- lar published price has been $1.50 a year. However, we have for years made a special club rate of 50 cents to students and teachers in our colleges. The new regular rate, effective September 1, 1943, is $2.00 a year, but we are still making a heavy discount to our institutions, and the new price will be duly 75 cents a year. You will doubtless be notified of this change in rate when the Ministry club is arranged for by the head of the Theological Deparment or Field Evangelism Department of your school. Possibly there are others who are not acquainted with this journal of worker methods, who would like to see a sample copy or subscribe. We would gladly send a sample copy, or such may be obtained from the head of the Theo- logical Department in your school. Young men looking toward the ministerial or medical pro- fession ( even of academy age), and young women looking toward the Bible instructor work or nurs- ing, are especially invited to join the large family of Ministry readers. If you are not already receiv- ing it, order this journal of worker interchange today and keep abreast of the times. THE MINISTRY MAGAZINE General Conference Building Takoma Park, Washington 12, D.C.

Beach's first sale, the arrange- ment is not his first effort at com- position. When he graduated with an MA from the University of Rochester Eastman School of Mu- sic in 1940, he could look back upon the playing of his first major composition, "Jericho Suite," by one of the east's leading orches- tras, the Rochester Civic. Although wartime rationing held up publication of the two-piano arrangements of the rondo, it was heard earlier this year at the Fifth Street USO when Beach and a fellow company clerk, Cpl. Harry B. McClure, then with Co. B of the 61st and now at OCPS, played it from a copy of the original which is in the files of G. E. Schirmer, Inc. A soldier 11 months, Beach gave up his post as head of the music department, Union College, Lin- coln, Neb., to join the Army. Visitors About Union's Campus
