UCA Awarded Youth Safety Council's Traveling Trophy Union College Academy has re- cently been awarded the traveling trophy of the Lincoln Youth Safety Council. The Safety Council is composed of five members (two seniors, two juniors, and one sophomore) from each of the high schools in Lincoln. The trophy was held last year by Pius X high school. The trophy was awarded UCA as a result of a vehicle safety check conducted around the school and promotion given safety in the academy. The academy students made a notebook in which was re- corded their different activities that sponsored the safety program. UCA council members this year are: John Klaren and Sharon Smith, seniors; Janet Wasemiller and Galyord Klein, juniors; and Frank Delhi, sophomore. Last year's winners of the Council's Prince and Princess of Safety contest were John Deming and Myrna Howe, both UCA seni- ors. They were chosen on the basis of their written essays and ora- tions. Sports Social To Provide Varied Games Sat. Night Excitement for the spectators and spirited activity for the play- ers will be provided by the broom hockey game at the sports social Saturday evening, Nov. 7. An exhibition basketball game the tumbling teams' performance, and a volleyball game will be packed into the evening's enter- tainment. The events are being sponsored by the ASB Recreation- al committee. Except for using brooms, a rubber ball, and dashing around on skates, broom hockey is played with the same rules as ice hockey Monte Burns and Evan Swanson will head up the two teams. Breaking an old tradition, the basketball game will not be played village vs. dorm. Two teams will be chosen with Len Colson and Bud Pollard as captains. Both boys' and girls' tumbling teams will make their first appear ance that night. On Nov. 18 they will leave for Colorado on their first tour of the year. Out on the volleyball court faculty and student teams will battle for victory in a timed match. Chairman and sponsor of the Recreational committee, Evelyn Byrd and Mrs. Dorothy George feel that an enjoyable and lively program is being planned.

After the agenda is completed at Atlantic Union College and Emman- ual Missionary College, the Writers' Conference, sponsored by THE YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR, will be held at Union, Nov. 20-22. Last year three west-coast schools were picked as hosts. Along with the twenty-two Eng- lish majors here at Union College, the surrounding conference acade- my teachers of third and fourth year English classes, college teach- ers of writing, and free lancers are expected to attend. Miss Shull, the Union host, says the sessions will begin at 7:30 a.m., Friday, Nov. 20. Crandall Will Be Featured Guest The guest speaker at this con- ference of writers is Elder Walter T. Crandall, former teacher of jour- nalism and dean of men at La Sierra College, and the present edi- tor of the 107-year-old periodical THE YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR. Elder Crandall was born in Mil- ton Junction, Wisconsin. He grad- uated from Washington Missionary College and later completed ad- vanced studies at the University of Southern California. He was direc tor of personnel and public rela- tions at the Glendale Sanitarium and Hospital when called, Septem- ber 9, 1952, to be the editor of the INSTRUCTOR. Arriving early on the campus, El- der Crandall will address the vari ous English classes Nov. 18-19. One of his main points of discussion during the week-end meetings will be the challenge of writing for church publications. Concerning those people interested in prepar ing manuscripts for denomination al publications, Miss Shull feels this conference "holds promise of real help." Arthur While To Be UC (ampus Speaker Elder Arthur White will be on the Union College campus during the week of Nov. 8. He is the grand- son of Mrs. Ellen G. White and the present administrator of her estate. Plans are for Elder White to speak during the chapel hour on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Evening meetings are also planned and will be held in the College View church at 6:40. The general topic of the meet- ings will be the influence of Mrs. White's writings on Adventist edu- cation. Staff Committee Makes Final Nominations Eleven Union College seniors have been named to be listed in the 1959-60 edition of Who's Who Among American Colleges and Uni- versities. The final selection, made by a staff committee of ten mem- bers, was based on nominations by the entire student body and faculty. Candidates for nomination to Who's Who were required to have a B average for their college work. The seniors were also judged on citizenship, participation in extra- curricular activities, religious char- acteristics, and promise of future usefulness. The maximum number of names that Union was allowed to to submit was fourteen. The following seniors were select- ed to represent the college: Robert Bockmann Robert Bockmann, son of Mr. and Mrs. John E. Bockmann, Aurora, Nebraska, is at present completing his fourth year at Union. Bob, a music education major, has been active in several music organiza- tions on the campus. He is a member of the Golden Chords Chorale and the Unionaires, and has served as a reporter for the Clock Tower and as a roster editor for the Golden Cords. Bob also served as a member of the Promo- tions committee in his sophomore year. Sharon Chatfield The current ASB secretary- treasurer, Sharon Chatfield, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Chatfield of Crowell, Texas. A social science major, Sharon is now in her third year at UC, having attended Southwestern Junior Col- lege in her freshman year. While at SWJC Sharon served as treasur- er of her dormitory club. Last year she was chairman of the ASB Social committee,and in her soph- omore year served on the Promo- tions committee. David Dennis Business Administration Major David Dennis is the son of Mrs. Sam G. Dennis of Lincoln. He was the winner of last year's ATS oratorical contest. He also served as Sabbath school superintendent last year. Currently David is the president of Beta Kappa and con- test co-ordinator for the ATS. This is his third year at Union.

NEBRASKA 2 CLOCK TOWER NOVEMBER 20, 1959 What Js School Spirit? What is school spirit? Do the majority of students on this campus have school spirit? How do we compare with other schools in this respect? How may our school spirit be improved? We asked three people on the campus \yhat they thought school spirit was and they answered as follows: 1. "Taking full advantage of all educational and spiritual opportunities that a Christian school offers, so as to better serve mankind." 2. "Participation in school ac- tivities." 3. "Taking an active part in all activities of school and sup- porting them to the best of your ability." Members of the faculty also gave their opinions. They said it was the spirit of searching for knowledge or to study for the love of learn- ing rather than studying just to obtain a grade. They said if you had school spirit, nobody could keep you away from your studies, because you would enjoy studying as much as anything you do. We have considered these different ideas of school spirit and have concluded that it is a combination of all of these. It is expressed in loyalty to your school, to your studies, and to God, most of all. In observing the students on this campus we would say that all of us have some school spirit, but few are outstanding in this charac- teristic. The majority of our number can improve in this respect. In comparing our school spirit with other campuses we think Union excels in the spiritual part and also competes favorably in the scholastic part of school spirit. However, when it comes to our school spirit, which in- cludes participation in school activities, being friendly, and standing for your school at all times, we think Union has sadly failed in com- parison with other schools. This should be corrected and can be cor- rected if we wish it to be. Our school spirit can be improved through practice and desire to change. If you will try improving, the ones around you will catch the fever and pass it on to their friends and associates. E. S. Behold your Surroundings It is barely distinguishable when you open the first door of Jor- gensen Hall. By the time you open the second door you may not have noticed it. However, as you climb the steps, there is no mistaking that peculiar chemical odor. Your sense of smell is offended and were it not for class attendance you would be tempted to leave this unpleasant situation. And yet—within minutes you become accustomed to the distasteful odor, and soon you no longer even detect it. The color of a plant is its main characteristic. Suppose a newly- cut flower is placed in a bottle of ink. As osmosis takes place, the stem slowly absorbs the writing fluid and the stem becomes the same color as the ink. To become less distinguishable the chameleon also conforms to the color of his surroundings. Though on the ground he may be a brown color his skin pigments change to green as he climbs onto a plant. Surroundings make a difference not only to our sense of smell, but also to the color of the plant and the chameleon. Even as we become rapidly accustomed to an odor until it is no longer offensive, so we can become accustomed to wrong influences if we stay among them. If we abide in a tainted social atmosphere, it will affect our sense of values the same way. Should we allow ourselves to stand in sin, it will soon creep into our system as the ink crept into the flower. Perhaps you are chameleon in habit, and your actions are governed by your environment. Do you laugh only because others laugh? Do you study only because others study? Do you attend wor- ships only because you1 are in a Christian school? Do you change colors off campus? By beholding we become changed. So behold what you're changing into and, if necessary, change what you're beholding. P. S.

By Ernest Lundin K-V-U-C are the call letters of the station, but O-U-C-H is what the broadcasting director of Union College radio station, Mr. Ar- thur Hauck, said last week when he scratched his back while work- ing in the "utilities" tunnel of Rees Hall. It is not unusual to find Mr. Hauck working either underground or high aloft, sometimes even in the Clock Tower, because in these out- of-the-way places are located the electrical connections that bring the carrier current radio voice of KVUC, 620 on the A.M. dial, into virtually every building on the Col- lege campus. KVUC, which was formerly known as KUON, had its beginning about 1954, but was operated only spasmodically until 1957. Since then, under the direction of Mr. Hauck, it has enjoyed a seasonal operation on a regular weekly schedule. Some of the programs featured are news by John Zollbrecht, music by Rae Campbell and Reuline Her- manson, religious programs b y Gene Hermanson, sports by Gary Grimes and reports and special features by Janet Tucker and Gen evieve Dickerson. The program manager is Betty Bell. The control room and the broad- casting room, which are located ad- jacent to room 403 in the Admin- istration Building, were designed and built by Mr. Hauck as was much of the operational equipment.

Feature Focus Weeping Water Work Is Well Worthwhile By Wayne Judd "They're rascals, but you can't help but love them!" is the remark of anyone who goes to the Weep- ing Water, Nebraska, story hour band each Sabbath afternoon. Union College's oldest story hour, the Weeping Water story hour, has grown for several years under the leadership of John Zollbrecht, De- lano Gillham and other former students. Anyone walking by the Legion Club Hall at 3 o'clock Sabbath afternoons in Weeping Water will probably hear twenty-five voices singing: "I've got a home in Glory Land that outshines the sun," or "Are we downhearted? NO, NO, NO!" After the song service, the chil- dren are divided into two groups. While those six years old or under are coloring and hearing stories, those children who are older study MV classes and work on crafts. Each week special music is given, and often science majors give de- monstrations with a religious les- son. Every two months college stu- dents have a party for the story hour children on a week-day even- ing. The last party was on Thurs- day evening, October 29. At 7:00 sharp, goblins, skeletons, witches, and all sorts of spooks filled the Legion Hall. And if the children weren't "rascals" enough on Sab- bath afternoons, they certainly were that Thursday evening! The first game was "Drop the Hanky," in which Marlene Ell- strom collided with a "goblin." Al- though the "goblin" was complete- ly uninjured, Marlene's glasses were smashed, and her eye was bruised. After a few more games, two films, and refreshments, the children left the party as full of vigor as they had come; the college stu- dents left completely "wrecked"! Each year projects have provided funds for Weeping Water children who have gone to junior camp. This year the leaders of the story hour are planning to send several chil- dren to junior camp, and also are planning to have a Missionary Volunteer investiture service for the older children next spring. Parts and Departs By Don Bunch Every year, without fail, there seems to be the same old crusade for the renovation of our dear school song. In fact, the yearly crusade is becoming more of a bogged down tradition than the song itself. We, therefore, have a solid wall in front of us which can only be removed by a solid com- pany. I wish to introduce a voice of student opinion concerning the problem. As guest columnist this issue, Rex Turner, pre-law student, speaks out in a way which repre- sents a trend of thinking of many, and, may I venture, the majority. The following, then, is by Mr. Turner. The bus grinds to a halt and a wizened old man steps heavily to the ground. He finds a familiar path and is soon on his way to the administration building when his ears pick up the old famihar refrain of the college school song. He stops suddenly and finds that his eyes have moistened and a peculiar lump is welling up in his throat. Happy memories of yester- years come floating back, and once again he is enjoying blissful youth and carefree college days. The music swells to a climax and then gradually dies away leaving the old man with a warm and glowing feeling. But you out there!! Five, ten, or even twenty years from now when you revisit your alma mater for "Alumni Homecoming Week- end" or any other, will the strains of our college song bring memories flooding back to you, or will an unknowing gaze creep across your face. Let's be serious!! Just exactly what does our school song mean to each one of you? Many students have been here four years and hardly know the melody, let alone all the words to the first stanza. You ask why. There is really one reason, although some worthy ones could create a list that would frighten you. We simply do not use it enough!! Sure it's too dif- ficult, but perhaps that's because we seldom sing it. If we sang it once or twice a month, there isn't a lowly freshman on the campus who shouldn't know it by the close of the school year. Not only that, but he would be willing and able to sing it with great enthusiasm. But there is another school of thought prevailing, too. Many stu- dents who are acquainted with the school song simply do not like it. Can it be that it is obsolete? If so, what shall we do about it? Apparently we have two alterna- tives and both require action, and action now! Number one, either we bring into regular use the school song we now have; or number two, abolish the present school song and develop a new one, a song that will promote school spirit and lend itself to easy mastery. Think it over and decide for yourself. And when you have decided, please don't dismiss it from your mind. Register your feelings with others and let your decision be known. Then and only then will we have a college song that will be asso- ciated with the happiest part of your life and mine. . . . Our col- lege days.

Jane Coming Soon UC Amateur Hour 'Foggy London Town' November 21 8:00 p.m. NOVEMBER 6, 1959 CLOCK TOWER Sigma 3ota Kappa By Monte Burns Contrary to the feminine trend of thought, men are sometimes interested in fashions. Men's fashions, that is! The last meeting of Sigma Iota Kappa earmarked the beginning of progressive better- ment in male dressing on the campus, as representatives from Gold's department store came to display the latest fall trends in clothing. No more green socks and purple ties! At least not worn at the same time! Nine weeks exams are upon us. The stillness of the night air is punctuated by ringing alarm clocks as they awake not only their owners but everybody else within reasonable hearing distance. Purpose ? To cram for finals, of course. One look at the men when they come dragging through the breakfast line will verify this. A cartoon I once saw best illustrates our plight. A fellow was sitting on the edge of his bed with his legs crossed and a just-removed sock hanging from his hand. His expression was one of deep thought as he said, "Now lesh see. Was I getting up, or was I goin' to bed?" I can't help but think back to the time when asked by our parents to take a nap, we revolted and proclaimed loud and long that when we were of age we'd never take naps and we don't go to bed until we are good and ready. I guess our predictions came true. We don't get to take naps and we don't go to bed until we are good and ready—for tests. Oh, for the good old days. Last Saturday night was the scene of many varied forms of enter- tainment. Progressive parties were held and the groups qould be seen madly dashing here and there 'over the campus to the different points of interest. Everything went "according to Hoyle" until groups started arriving at the science department. As the physics room door was opened, a skeleton's head was seen hanging as though in mid air. It not only hung there, it talked and gave directions to those coming through the door. As the different groups groped their way through the darkness they saw a mummy, had jets of wind blow down their backs, and all the while electric eyes were tripping buzzers, horns and every other type of device you could imagine. The chemistry ana biology departments came next in turn with explosions and weird scenes of skeletons suspended in mid air and cat-eyes staring out of the darkness. Taking all into account, it was a pretty ghostly experience. I've been waiting two weeks for something exciting to happen in this dorm, and right now it just happened. The fire alarm has gone off and every body is up tearing around. Dean Culver just came madly flying up the stairs, checked th^ fire alarm box on second floor and then went flying on up to third. No luck there either. Finally the light dawned—the alarm box down at the cafeteria entrance! Ah, he found it. And with that the deafening ring of the fire bells finally stopped. No, dean, I didn't do it! I'm pretty desperate for some excitement in the dorm at times, but not that desperate! Well, now that everything is peaceful and everyone has gone back to bed, it's a good time to make an end to this column for now. See you again, next issue! Nutrition Representative Speaks to Home Ec. Class Miss Virginia H. Marx, Field Nutrition Representative for the American Institute of Baking, Chicago, 111., was a guest speaker on Thursday, Oct. 15 at the 8:20 Foods and Nutrition class. Some of the high points of her talk were the recognition of impor- tance that enriched and whole- grain cereals play in providing certain minerals and the B-complex vitamins. She also pointed out that at the present time consideration is being given to enriching grains with essential amino acids as a partial solution in providing better nutrition in many countries of the world, which at the present time do not have adequate supply of the right type of food.

The meetings which have run consecutively since Sunday, Octo- ber 25, have been concerned with "God's Glory Unfurled," "Does the Letter from God Need Revising," "Security from What," "Angels and the Balm of Gilead," "Russia and the Middle East," "And They Shall Be Filled," "Lost When They Said I Was Saved," "Home and Love," "I Want to Live Young," "Go Down D e a t h," "The Value of Church Membership," and tonight's meet- ing brings "It's Closing Time." Elder Henry from Santa Rosa, California, states his aim of these meetings is "To Build Us All Up" by showing the importance of the message to the details of our lives. Elder Henry uses his singing ability in some of his services to combine with his spoken effort. Oratorical Contest Announced by ATS The Union College chapter of the American Temperance Society has announced its plans for the annual oratorical contest. The system of awards has under- gone definite moderations in accor- dance with the counsel given by the large temperance convention in Denver earlier this fall. It will follow the same general plan of arrangements as will the national contest. An airplane trip to the North American Youth Congress in Atlan- tic City, New Jersey, will be awarded to the first prize winner. The next four prizes will consist of $20 each. Preliminaries will be held on December 6. Rules governing the contest may be obtained from the co-ordinator, David Dennis, or the society president, Ed Lamb. Temperance contests will also be conducted for essays and musical jingles. KUEHL'S GROCERY MILK 77f( gal. ICE CREAM 351 qt.

A DRY-CLEANER SOUTH SIDE CLEANERS TWO DOORS WEST OF POST OFFICE SPIKE LYON K appa Z)heta By Stella Ramirez First of all, a word of congratulations to the senior women of Rees Hall who made it on "Who's Who". Your all-around excellent record here at UC gives the rest of us something to strive for. Now, should the administration feel the need for another list of outstanding stu- dents, may I suggest a "What Is It?" I even have a couple of names to suggest. People have birthdays all the time. Why just take Audrey Krueger, who had one not so long ago. Of course a party was in order, a nice one too, I heard. But take a day when a teacher has a birthday; and the situation changes, especially when the day happens to be a lab day. Dr. Rene Evard was surprised to find that instead of busily test- ing out the properties of alcohols, his Organic students had a coconut cake (decorated with bunsen burners) and ice cream party—for him, of course! Since all those attending the party are still alive and kick- ing, it is presumed by the author that the crucibles, in which the ice cream was eaten, and the filter paper, on which the cake was placed, were quite clean and had little, if any, trace of cyanide on them. Every time I hear our baby grand going in the lobby, I sneak up to see if perchance one of the deans is playing; but so far, I have had no luck. I have, however, discovered a number of girls who can play the piano very well. It'll be nice when the Christmas season arrives, and I can play my piece—Silent Night. Tell me, Mr. Turner, does it help to plant tulips in the dark; or did it just happen that you and your crew were working late last Thursday evening? In either case, may I thank you for the beautiful flowers that you keep growing in front of Rees Hall? They add much to the beauty of this side of the campus. Have any of y'all been down to the club room recently? You'll find that it's getting all "knotted", with knotty pine that is. Speaking of club, our officers are really presenting fine programs. The style show was really a hit with all. Not only did it make us all want to write home for bigger allowances; it also made many wish that Spring would hurry and come, so that they too could try a white gown, such as Bethel modeled for us. Ah, well ... the winter months must come first. I'm happy to report that Susie Crowe is back with us; but I'm sad to say that Rees Hall has given the hospital some more business in the person of Bonnie Harr. Hurry and come home, Bonnie, we miss you! The biggest event since the last column was, naturlich (as the Germans would say it), the ASB banquet. Nothing makes a girl feel lovelier than a corsage on her shoulder and a gallant young man at her side. However, I'd like to know what the girl who received the vegetable corsage thought; or did we talk you out of sending it, Jerry? . . . well, speak up! Before winter really comes and the snow covers the ground, do take time for a walk—a leisurely walk—and enjoy the autumn season. And before you take the walk read Bryant's "Thanatopsis;" you'll be glad you did. Dorm Defeats Village 13-12, Finishes Football Season By Don Berglin One of the hi-lights of the foot- ball season and one of the campus day events was a hard fought game between the teams of the dorm and village. The dorm team emerged as the. victors by a score of 13-12. The one touchdown in the first half was scored by the dorm team. The extra point was made which event- ually became the winning margin. The first half score was 7-0 in favor of the dorm. In the third quarter the village team climaxed a drive scoring a touchdown on a pass from Dick Pollard to John Uhrig. In the fourth quarter Clinton Buchmiller of the village team intercepted a dorm pass and went for a touch- down, making the score 12-7 in favor of the village. With three minutes left in the game the dorm made good with a touchdown pass that went from John Ridpath to Gary Grimes. The final score was 13-12 with the dormitory winning the second consecutive year. In the football league only a single round was played this year. The teams showed good spirit and leadership. Two teams seemed to have just a little more strength than the others, one of these teams going undefeated. This team was the Bears. They showed that they had both a good offense and de- fense, allowing only three touch- downs to be scored against them and scoring a total of 132 points. The second place team, the Gladi- ators, also showed good offense, scoring a total of 111 points. Outstanding players in the league this season were Don Nico- lay and Larry Duffield. Here are the final standings and the scores of all the league games played: Bears Gladiators Burn's Big Bad Team Colts Won Lost 4 0 Eagles Bears Colts B.B.B.T. Gladiators Bears B.B.B.T.

By Bill Swan Through the dioramic view from my room here in South Kali, I can see for miles over the multi-colored landscape of autumn leaves, fail flowers, and golden fields of corn. These physical changes of nature tell us that fall is here, and soon we can expect the now silent winds of winter to unleash their fury of snow and ice upon -us. When these changes of fall come, we know that winter is intimately near at hand and that we must make prepara- tions for it. To the householder autumn is the time when he must "winterize" his home so that his family will be protected against the vicious winter weather. To the farmer autumn is also a time for hard work, for he must gather all of his perishable produce into the safety of his barns. To all, autumn is a time to get ready for the inevitable. To the Missionary Volunteer the coming of autumn should be a reminder that just as autumn is a sign of the coming winter so the events of our times are a sign of Christ's second coming. Do we have our spiritual houses in order? Have we gathered all of the produce into the safety of the spiritual barns? Will we be ready, or will we be sleeping on guard? Union's Education Dept.

CHAT-N-NIBBLE Library Arranges For More Shelves Because ,of congested shelving conditions in the library, quite an extensive shifting program is un- derway. The college administration is studying the possibility of adding shelves in the Reserved Reading Room, the Seminar Room, and the Faculty Room. The 600's and 700's section, namely applied science and fine arts, are being moved from the top floor in the stacks to the second floor level, just off the charging desk. It is hoped that it will be possible to shelve bound period- icals on the top level and gradually expand their shelving as space and additional shelving permit. Mr. Evans, the Golden Cords photographer, has framed the painting which was given to the library last year by William Clemens, a former student. This will be hung in an appropriate place in the library. Who's Who (Continued from page 1) Rhodes of the college music depart- ment. In 1958 Carolyn was the winner of the Lincoln Symphony auditions.
