mtfcr Vol. XXIX CLOCK TOWER, LINCOLN. NEBRASKA, OCT. 27, 1955 No. 3 Typist Taps Rhythm, Sp mi, in U. C. Chapel .Cortez Peters, world famous speed typist, captivated Union College chapel attenders Friday, October 21, with a delightful sense of humor and a tremendous typing ability. His amazing "Royal" reached the un- believable speed of 140 words per minute before our very eyes. LATEST SCORE CLOCK TOWER SUBSCRIPTION CAMPAIGN TOTAL TO DATE 594 LACK 1006 GOAL 1600 INDIVIDUALS having two subs 209 LACK 464 GOAL 673 SIK Banquets KT with Bewitching Theme Cortez Peters Two hours a day was set aside tor typing practice during Mr. Peter's high school days. As a result of this determination not to be the worst typist in his class, he won the first diamond medal ever awarded a high school student. Preparation for a one-hour typing- test requires practice all day for three months. Mr. Peters has at- tained the speed of 141 net words per minute with 99 per cent accu- racy in one such hour contest. This chapel presentation was not only interesting, but it was also in- formative. All it takes to become a champion typist is the ability to use "one finger at a time and strike one key at a time." "Don't chaperon your carriage," was some helpful advice which means don't keep your hand on the carriage while it re- turns to position. Mr. Peters holds many records which include the Amateur Champi- onship of the World, the World's Accuracy Trophy, and the World's Portable Typewriter Speed Champi- onship. Becsven Begins ATS Program Dr. Winton H. Beaven, associate secretary of the American Temper- ance Society, with headquarters at Takoma Park, Washington D. C., will visit the Union College campus October 27 to 29. Dr. Beaven will address the students on temperance at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, October 27, and at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, Oc- tober 28, in the college chapel. He will also have charge of the Friday evening vesper service October 28 at 8:00 p.m. in the College View Seventh-day Adventist Church, and the morning church services Sab- bath, October 29, at 8:30 a.m. and 11 :00 a.m. in the College View Sev- enth-day Adventist Church. Dr. Beaven was a member of the staff of Union College from the be- ginning of the school year in 1943 to the close of the school year in 1949, and was on leave of absence during the 1945-46 school year, at which time he received his doctorate from the University of Michigan. During his connection with Union College, he held the rank of profes- sor of English, and later, when the speech department was organized as a major department, he was made professor of speech. From the be- ginning of the school year in 1946 to the close of the school year in 1949, he was assistant to the presi- dent. Dr. Beaven is also associate secre- tary of the International Temper- ance Association of the Seventh-day Adventist Church organization, and recently visited fourteen European nations in the interests of temper- ance. While in Nebraska Dr. Beaven will also lecture at Platte Valley Academy, Shelton, Nebraska, Thursday evening, October 27, and at the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Omaha Sabbath after- noon, October 29. MC Jim Griffen and SIK President Rob Jo Wallace and Carolyn McMurphy. Jonson receive boutonnieres from Betty Panel Suggests Tips and Tests The College View Missionary Volunteer Society presented a panel discussion Friday evening, October 21, on the subject "Association". A panel of six members and the moderator presented to the volun- teers "tests to administer to friends and friendships." A few of the thoughts presented were the following: "we must select those who will elevate, ... a Christian friend must be one that convinces others they are important, . .. does this take up too much time .. . we will only have friends as good as we are, . . . we will become like them, . . . are the friends we have now the ones we want in heaven?" Mr. Hauck, head of the College Speech department, acted as moder- ator for the panel. The panel con- sisted of Russell Strom, Jay Sloop, Loren Dickinson, Elder P. C. Jarnes, Diane Johnson, and Mrs. Billie Peckham. The meeting was closed with this thought: "The only way to have a friend is to be one." Selective Service Test Is Announced Young men on the campus are currently being reminded by L. W. Welch at the Student Counseling Office of their responsibilities to the Selective Service System. Notices were posted two weeks ago announcing the Selective Serv- ice System College Qualification Test for those students wishing to establish or maintain an educational deferment and who have not taken that test. The dates for the test are November 17, 1955, and April 19, 1956. Applications for the Novem- ber test must be postmarked not later than November 1 and those for the April test may be made now or not later than March 5. 400 Participate in Field Day; Ingathering Funds Total $2500 Calendar of Current Events-October, 1955 Chapels November 3. 4—Music Dept.

Women's Club Meets At Engel Hall The initial meeting of the Campus Women's Club for 1955-56 was held in Engel Hall Sunday evening, Oct- ober 23. After refreshments, Presi- dent Ardys Brown conducted a short business session. New mem- bers were introduced and presented with flowers. Members of the coll- ege music department were the guest entertainers of the evening. Their program included a violin solo by Mr. Arthur Howard, a two- piano duet by Mr. and Mrs. Neil Tilkens, and a vocal duet by Mr. and Mrs. J. Wesley Rhodes. In a short talk, Mrs. E. N. Dick revealed that the Campus Women's Club was organized in 1939 by Mrs. A. Rulkoctter, and has been a grow- ing organization since then. Club members for this year have chosen "Friendship" as the theme of their meetings. ^ "Martin Luther" Maurice Bascom turns money in to Mr. Keene as Lynn Baerg looks on. ^^ • ^ ^ After joint worship in the collegc auditorium October 19, 400 stu- dents and teachers, divided into 34 bands, began the 52nd year of de- nominational Harvest Ingathering with Union's annual field day. Par- ticipants netted $2500 to be used for world missions. Program or- ganization for the day was by the Ministerial Association. Elder C.T.J. Hyde, director of the Bombo training school at Ugan- da, East Africa, spoke to those gathered for worship. Pie empha- sized the needs of the missions and talked of the use and importance of the money obtained from Ingather- ing. At approximately 9:30 Wednes- day morning the bands left in 34 cars for communities, rural areas, and towns in the area surrounding Lincoln. I'art of the net total was contrib- uted by students who remained at home and gave their day's wages. Many who could not go with a band on the field day pledged cash dona- tions. A film, "When I Grow Up" was shown in the auditorium at the end of the clay's ingathering activities. Refreshments were served to the re- turned participants and produce and other objects donated were auctioned. The Home Missionary secretary of the Nebraska conference, M. Donovan Oswald and Elder M. W. Deming. pastor of the College View church assisted the Ministerial As- Continued to page 4 Martin Luther, a film portraying the life, deeds, and experiences of the great reformer will be shown Saturday night, October 29, in the college auditorium. The picture emphasizes Luther's convictions of the freedom of con- science and his unwavering defense of it before the Diet of Worms. Convinced on a scriptural basis that "The just shall live by faith", Luther's life-long concept of a furi- ous God was altered. This led him to a deeper study of the Bible and consequently, a radical change of the whole pattern of his life thereafter. Luther's Ninety-five theses launched him on a controversy against the papacy which dominated the remain- der of his life. Annual Club Fete Is ''Halloween Nocturne" The men of Sigma Iota Kappa last Wednesday evening October 26 presented their biannual reception and banquet to the women of Kappa Theta. The autumn season being well underway again, Halloween Nocturne was the theme used for this traditional occasion. Dinner was served in the college cafeteria which was decorated with corn stalks and pumpkins. Each table was watched over by a small paper spook that was used as a place card. The menu following the seasonal theme was none other than Grand- ma Witch's specialty. The meal was started with witch's brew as an appetizer, and goblin tidbits to nib- ble on. Following was monster's bludgeons (entree), spook's toes, goon's gold, witch's sunshine, harv- est salad, couldron bubbles, and ghosts' delight. The meal was eaten in the relax- ing atmosphere of soft dinner music by Leroy Schultz, Dick Neil, Joe Rhyne, Jim Deringer, Lynn Wick- ham, and Van Knauss. The dry humor of Jim Griffin, master of ceremonies, also contributed much to the scene. Robert Johnson, president of the men's club of South Hall, boomed the welcoming address in his deep bass voice. Presenting the response in a most pleasing way was Pat Gordon, representing the women of North Hall. Through the dining hall, the smil- ing faces of students contrasted mar- velously with the corsages of beau- tiful orchids and sweet-smelling car- nations worn by the ladies. Among this and the scene of dim candle- light were the distinguished who attended : notably, President Hart- man, Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Ogden, Dean and Mrs. Culver. Miss Hilda Fern Remley, and Mrs. Wilma Cowan. Helping to create the scene of fall was the huge pumpkin which covered the entrance of the gymnas- ium where the after entertainment was given. The cool clear evening showed signs of approaching winter. Miss Ruth Whitfield was pre- sented a bouquet of roses by Rob- ert Johnson in appreciation of the time and effort spent in preparing the meal and cafeteria. The club officers Ed Owens, Hubert Wat- kins, Doug Eddleman, Melvin Campbell, Jim Griffin, and Phil Reiswig were also given a vote of thanks for the time spent in plan- ning and making arrangements for the occasion. Highlighting the program was the performance given by the magi- cian Sam James who had the crowd gasping with fire-swallowing and "hide-and-go-seek" tricks. The male chorus under the di- rection of Mr. Harold Lickey gave two favorites, "Where, Oh, Where in America" and "Dear Old Union." The grand finale to an activity- packed evening was a motion pic- ture "Tundra," depicting man's fight against the savagery of na- ture in the wilds of Alaska. SA Campus Day Campus Day activities, sponsored by the Student Association, began as the bell in the Clock Tower sounded at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, October 26. Classes were dismissed for the program which included volleyball, t e n n i s, badminton, football, and rollerskating.

Thus school spirit is equated by many with rah-rah pro- grams with confetti flying about profusely, pep bands playing rousing tunes, the act of standing at attention with one's hair standing on edge while the school song is being sung (but alas! standing on one leg with hands in pocket while the doxology is being sung in chapel), taking time off for marshmallow roasts, pancake fries, skiing, or even basking in the sun, bull sessions of all types where individuality and in. dependent thinking is stifled, wearing the college letters on one's sweater, or even descending to the spirit and level of many high schools and grade schools, (where scores of hours are spent by students who are in school to learn how to read and write and add two and two), in twirling batons, practicing sports, attending entertainments galore, blowing um-pa-pas on tubas and other monkey activities. Some of these pursuits may be unobjectionable and even legit- imate. If, however, they are conceived to be the sine qua non of school spirit, then school spirit becomes a "tinkling symbol and a sounding brass." School spirit involves enthusiasm for study, for learning, for books. It includes interest and zeal in acquiring new ideas and facts. It is characterized by eagerness to tackle difficult problems and assign- ments in the various branches of learning and manifests a sense of joy in the mastery of such tasks. In the broader sense, school spirit im- plies the developement of right attitudes—right attitudes toward life, fellow students, religion, rules and regulations, marriage, court- ship, and in fact towards every phase of human experience. Harry Reinmuth & There has been much talk lately upon the lack of reverence in church, chapel, and other religious meetings. Do you suppose if the church business was carried on in a less spectacular manner, there would be a more reverent attitude among the congregation? Tin cans and papers seem to be competing with the rocks at the "rock pile." The shrubs along the front of South Hall are also having competition from the papers and cans. Union has a very good campus. Let's keep our campus looking "collegiate." E. M. One Man's Opinion: Will Eisenhower Run In '56? White House aides are hinting that President Eisenhower might he persuaded to run for a second-term if the office of the Chief Executive could be reorganized so that its responsibilities are divided and not centered in one man. On the other hand, it is felt that Mrs. Eisenhower is opposed to a second term, and has been all along. Moreover, few poli- ticians in private express any doubt that the President will decide to retire after his first term, and in that opinion this column concurs. At any rate, the nation will undoubtedly know the answer to this question by, or shortly after, January 1, 1956. "Geneva Spirit!'' Remember the jubilation over the "summit meetings" held in Geneva, Switzerland, last July? The cause of the rejoicing at that time was threefold. There was a public state- ment, at the "summit," that neither the Soviet Union nor the United States, Great Britain and France intended to wage atomic war. There was a definition of the basic prob- lems of the cold war. There was a pledge to seek solutions for these problems at the working level of the foreign ministers at a later date. That date is close at hand. Gone, however, is all the optimism about the world's future. Instead, many top Western officials insist that the "ostrich act is over." "We are pul- ling our heads out of the sands of Geneva to see what is left of the cold war." It's still there, and in fact, appears to be more insoluble than ever. Portraits Khrushchev: An uneducated, pleasure-loving peasant, but highly intelligent. He impresses foreigners with his strength and vitality, and has convinced the Western world that he is the top man in the Soviet Union. Bulganin : Looks like a doctor or minister from a small town, cour- teous, experienced in administration, but his speech can be brutal. Of the German prisoners he said: "Your German soldiers have come to Rus- sia, and there they lie buried under the Russian earth, all of them." Malenkov: His photographs are deceiving. He seems to those that have met him to be a man of great charm. He is reserved, intelligent, but he is a sick man. Though de- moted from the premiership, he still seems to be held in high respect. Dr. And Mrs. H. G. Reinmuth, Dr. arid Mrs. Otto Haiberg, Mrs. R. A. Johnson, and President Hartman partaking of refreshments. Dr. Otto Haiberg, Associate Pro- fessor of Sociology and co-ordina- tor of the University of Nebraska Extension Division, was the guest speaker at the faculty social in Engel Hall Sunday evening, October 16. Mrs. R. A. Johnson, chairman of the faculty social committee, had charge of the program. Refresh- ments were served, followed by a piano solo, "Chopin's Etude in E," by Mr. Neil Tilkens. President Hartman i n t r o duced the guest speaker. Dr. Haiberg has spent several years in Germany, the first time for three years as a Protestant member of a Religious Affairs Branch of mil- itary government set up to educate the people and help strengthen the religious system in that country. During this time Dr. Haiberg met and worked with Dr. PI. G. Rein- muth in Berlin. Dr. Haiberg stated that he had grown up in a denom- inational institution such as Union Late Roster Allen, Dale (S) Lincoln, Nebraska Eleanor Anderson (F) Sioux Falls, South Dakota Iienkleman, Naomi (PG) Lincoln, Nebraska Fuels, Evelyn (PG) Lincoln, Ne- braska Schwartz, Daniel (PG) Lincoln, Nebraska A+iCfl&l The voice department is offering a unique experience to the liberal arts student that perhaps is little realized as yet. But according to Mr. Rhodes and Mr. Lickey, more and more students are availing themselves of this opportunity. Ordi- narily, John Q. Student thinks to himself on registration day, "Nope, 1 just won't go near that music building this year. I just can't af- ford it." But John Q. doesn't realize what has taken place behind the in- viting walls of Engel Hall. Now he can get a voice class that meets once a week for a full fifty minute period and get one hour credit, and believe it or not, pay for one hour credit only. This is a boon for the ministerial student, speech student, home eco- nomics student, anyone who likes to sing, thinks he can sing, or wishes he could. In speaking to Mr. Rhodes, the writer gathered that these classes fulfill a vital need in the liberal arts course of any stu- dent because of the emphasis placed on tone production, diction, and in- terpretation. Another desirable as- pect of these voice classes is the added poise and self-assurance gained by having to sing in front of a small class. That deadline beckons again, but before signing off, just a reminder that the first appearance this school year of our Union College Concert Orchestra will he Sabbath after- noon, November 12th. The orchestra will present the vesper service in the church. Newly elected officers of this growing organization are: Ted Wick, president; Nancy Lou Cross, secretary-treasurer; Byron Moe, social chairman; and Charlotte Leh- to, publicity manager. College and also taught in one in his later years. lie stated that in East Germany the Russians are teaching the young- sters Communism and that the West German people and the West Ger- man government are trying to teach them a democratic way of life. Dr. Haiberg said, "We are under a word obligation to help strengthen the movement that these oppressed people are trying to carry out." The whole atmosphere is against any- thing religious and "the people in East Germany are living under a government where it is hard to pro- fess a religion." In West Germany the adults are organizing a training school course with programs of religious nature. The three things that they profess most strongly are unity, freedom, and democracy. To summarize his speech Dr. Haiberg stated that the churches of Germany constitute the only con- crete bridge between East and West Germany. Ajftel QtaduatioH, Marie D o w n e y '52; Carolyn Dealy, '55; Elsie Schlup, '55; Al- thea Rea, '55 ; and Miss Alice Smith, a teacher at the Clinical Division of the college, spent the weekend of October 14-17 on the campus. They were en route to the Porter Hospi- tal-Sanitarium in Denver after va- cationing in New England and eastern Canada. Irene Denny, '55, a secretary in the Missouri Conference, recently spent a few days with former class- mates at the college. Gaines Partridge, '47, former principal of the Los Angeles Acade- my in California, has returned to Oakwood College in Alabama, where he is professor of education and dean of academy boys. George f. Gantz, '47, a minister in the Oklahoma Conference, has moved to the Michigan Conference where he will pastor a district with headquarters at Sturgia. Kenneth Yanhof, '50, a former teacher at Adelphian Academy in Michigan, joined the teaching staff at Shenandoah Valley Academy in Virginia at the beginning of the school term. E. B. Blair, '53, is enrolled at Pacific Union College in California, where he has begun study on his Master of Arts Degree. OVERHEARD By Wendy Owen Do you ever wake up in the early morning hours to find that the heat has just been turned on? Although the radiator is making a gallant ef- fort (you know that by the knocks and rattles it is emitting!), the room is still cold, if you have this problem, and it is quite certain that you do, a marvelous method has been invented by a contemporary genius living in North Hall. Merely place a large bath towel on the radi- ator before you go to sleep at night, and the next morning it will catch the first warm radiations. By taking the towel and wrapping it around your shoulders, you will soon be warm as toast! A better idea is to jump out of bed and try a few cali- sthenics, but I won't suggest that- due to the age-old proverb, "Prac- tice what you preach." This suddenly cooled weather has brought the falf colors to the campus in a beautiful array, but have you noticed one little thing? The yellow cat with the green eyes that wanders around the dorm is the same shade as the leaves of the cotton-woods. If you don't believe it, catch him lying in a pile of leaves. His camou- flage is perfect. The weather has also brought on an epidemic of colds. They range all the way from the little sneezy ones, which most seem to have, to the attack of laryngitis that Betty Collingsworth seems to have picked up. Her worst complaint is that when people say "Hi", she can't answer them, but tries to manage a quick smile before they pass by. She hopes people won't think she is stuck-up or bashful—she just can't talk. What is this we hear about Jane Westin going to sleep on her knees beside her bed and not waking up until one-thirty in the morning? It may be that she was just very tired, but it docs seem as if one of her friends who were in the room might have awakened her or at least put her to bed! Onions to the girls who amuse themselves by twirling the combina- tions on the mail boxes as they walk- by. When you frantically try to get at that all-important letter, it pre- sents quite a delay! By Bob Romans Overheard : Marvin Waite ask- ing Dean Culver, "Did you miss my car when you checked?" Dean : "No." Marvin : "Good, then no one has stolen it!" Overheard: The throb of ap- proximately four Hi-Fi sets throughout the dormitory, the blare of trombones and tubas and numer- ous other instruments of torture- er-culture. There has been some uncertainty as to which side of the campus the music hall is oti, but really, anyone with an ear for music may notice a distinct difference in quality. A coaching session in boys' club by six girls, Sharlene Wood, Wendy Owen. Bonnie Logan, Joanne Ros- enthal, Sally Nugent and Jan Zem- ple, as to treatment young ladies prefer on dates and formal occasions turned out to be very interesting and informative. The fellows learned that girls like being treated with courtesy and respect. It all boils down to one standard—The Golden Rule. If interested in buying a corsage the place to glean all information on whom to see, price, color, etc., is the bulletin board in South Hall. Two advertisements were seen at one time on it; both referring to room where Phil Reiswig would graciously take your order.' ft takes a good business man to think of two notices on one bulletin board. The shining waxed floors in South Hall certainly looked fine. It seems like shiny floors befit a new dormi- tory, and we want all who are re- sponsible to know that the rest of us give you a hand of thanks.

Contrary to some people's belief, criticism can be very constructive and helpful. Of course, used in the wrong way it can also be destructive, damag- ing, and harmful to one's outlook on life. It seems to me we should all follow closely the advice of Abraham Lincoln when he said, "He has the right to criticize who has the heart to help." Instead of merelv saying "What a horrible chaDel period," or protesting that our Student Association is not as astive as it should be, make your- imorove our academy. I'm sure self a committee of one to help that our academy teachers and officers are all ready and willing to listen to any suggestions we might have—provided that we are ready to stand behind them and help in any way we can. Carol Runyan Ingathering Exceeds Last Year Field clay was a success for the Academy. Eight bands went out and came back with $226.76. This is compared with $170 of last year. Thanks to all those who went out and did their share. Freshman Frolics On the evening of October 9. twelve of the freshmen met at Laurette Fletcher's home to help her celebrate her birthday.

They did ! The summer following gradua- tion they were married on August 4, 1930. Mr. Johnson was superin- tendent of a consolidated high school and Mrs. Johnson learned to coolc and be a good housekeep- er. Always together in everything they do, they completed their Mas- ter's degrees while teaching at Southern Junior College, now known as Southern Missionary Col- lege. Twelve years were spent in dormitories of three schools where Mr. Johnson acted as dean of boys. The snap taken on "The John- son's" fifth anniversary in Atlanta, Georgia, reminds them of a—at the time unnoticed, but beautiful gar- denia garden. We enjoy having this happy cou- ple with us, and we hope they'll stay for a long, long time. Lee Rausten Youth Fellowship One chapel period last week was devoted to Youth Fellowship with Elder Deming as chairman. After a half hour of discussion, we reach- ed a decision. We are planning to have a regular meeting each Fri- day night. On Sabbath afternoons, literature bands and sunshine bands will be organized. The Youth Fel- lowship officers believe this plan will be satisfactory and are urging each one of the students to join and be an active member in these missionary activities. Ting-a-ling! Ling! "Clock Tower Office, Ed Macom- ber speaking." "Oh I've got the wrong Clock Tower. I mean there is a phone up at the Clock Tower. Sorry, Ed." "That's all right, Dean Culver." Hauck Interrogates Union's Travelers "Where are you going?" asked Elder Arthur Hauck in chapel Thursday, October 20, as he made his debut to most of the students at Union College. Elder Ilauck, who came to Union ibis year from Campion Academy as the head of the Speech depart- ment, compared our experience at Union with that of packing a suit- case for a journey, for here we arc packing our suitcase for life. For some, the trip through life is a planned trip with careful thought given to every necessary item. For others it is just a tossing in what- ever lies nearest with little thought or consideration for the needs on that journey. Said Elder Hauck, "Sometimes sad, sometimes amus- ing, but always of interest to me is the experience of watching young people packing their suitcases for their journey through life." Where are you going? You had better check your suitcase to see what you are taking. He went on to say- that our habits, our hopes, our ideals, and our standards determine where we are going. What we have in our baggage tells us where we are going. If we were taking a trip and our luggage were filled with swimming suits, sun-tan lotion, and other items for swimming it would be very unlikely that we were leav- ing for Canada in the middle of winter. So it is in life, if we take only the purest things in our suit- cases, then we are traveling to the summer home up above. We should all check our suitcase and answer once more, "Where are you going?"

To begin the entertainment a ping-pong table was set up with each guest taking a turn at the game. Betty Carlisle and Larry Duffield proved their playing abil- ity by defeating all contenders. After cracking nuts for some chocolate fudge, the entertainment turned to pumping and playing the pump organ. While Carlyle Welch pumped, the girls took turns play- ing the organ. Fresh popcorn and apples were used to supply energy to the musicians.

NURSE'S CLUB An old fashioned hay ride, a marshmallow roast, and stories of the "good ole' days" was the mood set by a club of pre-nursing students sponsored by Miss Mazie Herin and Miss Hilda Remley. Traveling by the out-moded hay rack to Union's south farm, more than 30 guests en- joyed the seclusion of country life for an evening, highlighted also by a song fest with Hobby Berg and La Vonne Blehm. Refreshments were served following the songs and the occasion ended with the return ride to the campus. MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION Club night found the auditorium alive with activity from the Min- isterial Association's members and guests. A pot luck supper began the evening for the 75 in attendance, which set the pace for volleyball, ping pong, and shuffle-board to fol- low. ( Hlier guests of the association included members of the local and union conferences as well as par- ticipation from the auxiliary. Ralph Watts directed the party, whose club is sponsored by Religion De- partment I lead Elder Wallenkamp. BUSINESS CLUB The Business Club began its year with an outdoor event, that of going to the south farm, where just across the way. were the party goers of the pre-nursing club. I Icre, by the light of the silvery moon, Mrs. Everett Dick entertained with stories from frontier days. Vein Thompson led in a round of games, "music" was was played by the Uncalled Four, and refreshments were served for for two dozen gathered, including sponsor R. E. Firth and president Duane Huey. Richard Scott headed the committee for the special event. TEACHERS OF TOMORROW A fall mood prevailed at an oc- casion of the Teachers of Tomorrow Club, when last Saturday night, a giant scavenger hunt was staged by club president, Minnesotoan Dick Sletwick. Locks of red hair to '54 license plates were on the roster for the eager hunters to secure. Games then were played in the church an- nex where refreshments were served after the fashion of true Halloween habit. Sponsoring the future teach- ers is Mrs. Joshua Turner. rr "Prayer is the key in the hand of faith to unlock heaven's store house, where are treasured the boundless resources of omnipotence." S.C. 99. A scientist is said to have declared that prayer is the greatest power in the universe, but the Christians do not use it. "Power Hour" brings the individual another opportunity to receive the help that Christ so willingly offers him. "Power Hour" has been organized and meets each weekday at 12:15, so that the student who is looking for peace of mind and a chance to relax may draw nearer to God. There are many who think that religious life is perpetual motion. That it is set in motion by conver- sion, and from then on one does not need to give it any more thought, but this is not so. One needs a daily walk with God. "Power Hour" will help supply this daily spiritual need, and help one to grow in his Christian experience.

Think it must have been Mark Twice who said; "The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug." Must be true. Maybe that's why some of these CT writers never draw fire . . . ? What was that you said, Ed? Well, save it: I just resigned anyway. And By the Way, it says here that "everybody is as big as the things that make him mad." So the next time you get mad, make sure it's something you'll never meet again. Hog-Buyers Help Heathen The outstanding Missionary con- tact of Field Day was made by Har- old Heath, sophomore theology ma- jor from Portsmouth. Ohio. This is his story. "We canvassed a small town and received only $14 for our effort. We couldn't help but be a little discouraged as we began to drive out of town. Just as we were leaving, I noticed that many cars and trucks were coining into town, and parking beside a large shed. Some were walking hurriedly along the road. The rest of the band mem- bers decided to investigate, so we stopped and entered the shed. We discovered that there w as to be a hog sale that afternoon. 1 prayed for guidance, and then proceeded to ask the man in charge for permission to s]>eak to his audience. He gave me the microphone and three minutes. 1 made a brief appeal telling the people the burden that was on my heart. They responded by passing the hat. At the end we had $31 more for the Lord's work. So we left that small community with $45 and a great spiritual blessing." President Elmer Lampson "stirs the soup club members. By Doug Eddleman Take two days and nights spent in the open, add huge meals con- sisting of the tastiest of foods, throw in fun and fellowship with a group of congenial campers of similar in- terests and top with worship periods and songs sung to the glory of the Lord, and the result will he the most enjoyable week-end possible. At any rate, thirty-five Natural Sci- ence Club members will agree with this claim as they recognize the foregoing as being a suitable, brief description of the annual fall outing. Leaving the Union College cam- pus Friday afternoon, the club set out, caravan fashion, on a northern route which would lead to the camp- ing spot for the outing, Ponca State Park. The park was reached after sun- down. As the Sabbath evening's breeze brought with it a chill and an air of excitement, camp was hastily pitched by campers who re- fused to remain far from the warm, beckoning flames of the fireplace. Soon, the air was filled with the delightful aroma of food, and the week-end explorers were partaking of the first of five delicious meals. After supper, all members par- ticipated in a worship service. Ves- pers was ended with taps which sent Ingathering (con't. from page 1) sociation with organization of the Ingathering program. Both college and academy stu- dents were divided into forty bands with a sponsor for each group. A list of tl.c college band lenders fol- lows: Slier rood Jones, I'hil Groce, Lynn Baerg, Roger Heinrich, Char- les Washburn, Maurice Bascom, Harold Heath, Bob Chase, Ralph Williams, Jim Owens, Frank Hurd, Don Nelson, Cliff Reeves, Norman Woods, Glenn Farnsworth, Ivan Morford, Leslie Bietz, Charles Cook, Loren Dickenson.

Activities for the Sabbath includ- ed Sabbath School, a preaching service, and nature hikes. While hiking, it was interesting to come upon a spot on the river bank where Lewis and Clark, early American explorers, had forded the muddy currents of the Missouri. The inspirational highlight of the entire trip came Sabbath evening as the group climbed to the top of a high point to commune with the Creator. As the sun sank behind a distant ridge, its last Sabbath rays seemed to flood the autumn-garbed trees in a golden brilliancy which was somewhat indicative of the glory and majesty of God. Saturday night the serious gave way to lighter moments as the group enjoyed games, folk songs, and stories around a campfire. Camp was awakened early Sun- day morning by a light rain which forced the members to re-make their beds within the shelter house. Later in the morning, while loading equip- ment for the return journey, the rain turned to sleet. By the time the caravan had reached the highway, the sleet gave way to snow. Thus, Old Man Weather was a bit slow in his attempts to ruin the outing. It was a complete success and shall long be remembered by the many satisfied persons who attended. All religious services were planned and conducted by the club pastor, Herman Washington. Miss Myrna Wiltse and Miss Louisa Peters were in charge of food serv- ice. The entire outing was coordi- nated by Elmer Lampson, club president, and Mr. Walter Page, faculty sponsor. Ralph Watts, Charles Sims, Joe Rhyne, Ronald Nelson, and Jerry McGill. Academy teachers served as leaders for the younger groups.

The first half score found the surprising prep boys leading 12 to 6 on pass combination of Duf- field to Rossow and Thompson to larvis. The Villagers having scored once in the first half on a sweep around right end with McArthur carrying, pulled up to a tie in the final period with a bullet pass from Shockey to Niswonger, leaving the final score 12 to 12. The rampaging Koshers now holding a 5-0 slate, rolled over the Maple Leaves 49 to 0 and over- powering strong first half resistance from Team 4 went on to rack up a 54 to 12 final tally. Scoring punch for the Koshers was furnished with sharp passing by Watts to George and Walt Newmeyer and Woods and running by Nelson and Wheeler. Another game found the Koshers taking a 2-0 decision from the Maple Leaves. Team 4 bowed to the Academy in a action-packed afternoon which saw the preps unleash a flashing display of well-organized plays. Final count found the Academy on top of a 26 to 6 score. The Maple Leaves picked up a win over Team 4, 2-0, as the Acade- my made it three in a row by down- ing Team 4. 2-0 and shutting out the Maple Leaves 40-0. Friday, the highly touted Koshers slipped by the spirited village team 25 to 15. The running of Ron Nel- son and the passing of Ralph Watts accounted for the Koshers four tal- lies. The receiver of the passes was George Newmeyer. In the village attack it was the running of Ed Owens that accounted for most of the yardage. Niswonger scored once on a sweep around the right end. The other village tally came when Frank McArthur passed from the Kosher fifteen yard line to Larry Plenderson in the end zone.

By Bonnie Logan The girls' volleyball tournament ended Sunday with the sophomore team in first place and the junior team in runner-up position. With the arrival of cooler weath- er, attention has shifted from out- door sports to table tenn's. trampo- line practice, and other indoor ac- tivities. Basket ball practice will begin November 1. and, according to Miss La Verne McClatchey, gym instructor, unusual enthusiasm has been indicated for the debut of this sport. The gym is open Sunday morn- ings from 7 to 8 and Sunday after- noons from 4 to 6 for girls who wish to participate in these varied activities. Miss McClatchey stress- es the fact that these practice per- iods are for those who want to learn game fundamentals as well as those who want to polish up their technique.
