Men's Reception Has Irish Theme Shamrocks and green hats formed the background of the Men's Reception, given by the dormitory and single village men for the single ladies of the campus on Tuesday night, March 23. The banquet, in the new South hall dining room, was attended by over 250 people and was under the primary direction of John Westerberg. The program was built around "The Wearing of the Green, with "Irishman" Jerry McGiil as Master of Ceremonies. Irish music was presented by Richard Randolph, the Ambassadors' Quartet, Millicent Ode- gaard and Bennie Brown, the Western Trio, Daina Ramey, Ted Jones, and the Acad- emy Quartet. Shirley Burton gave a reading, "Homecoming." The banquet was held in the newly refinished dining room of South hall. Jerry Beem is president of Sigma Iota Kappa, the boys' club. y m 4 1954 UNOOLN.

"What's My Hobby?" Stumps Faculty Experts The Home Economics club was in charge of chapels on March 22 and 23. With Robert E. Cleveland, history professor, as moderator, the club presented a quiz program, "What's My Hobby?" Panel mem- bers who identified (or failed to identify) the hobbies of various students were Elder J. J. William- son, Elder A. V. Wallenkampf, Miss Margaret Pederson, and Wil- liam H. Taylor. At the close of each quiz the panel was blindfolded and asked to identify the mystery guests, Miss Pearl Rees and Dr. G. C. Jorgen- sen. Students on the programs were: Lou. Etta Craddock, Ted Jones, Marilyn Dart, Darlene Kirchner, Daniel Gerst, Maxine Rogers, San- dra Joyner, and Louise Jameson. CME Medical School Accepts 13 UC Seniors Thirteen Union College students were among ninety-six who re- ceived letters of acceptance last week from CME's School of Medi- cine. Among those to be enrolled in the denomination's medical edu- cation center at Loma Linda on August 29 are: Norman Baughman Delbert Brown, William Cavin, Ar- rah Curry, Marilyn Dart, Samuel DeShay, Wayne Dunks, Harold Fei- kes, Roy Jones, Alan King, Robert McCorkle, Ronald Moore, and Al- bert Wick. They are part of CME's 46th class in medicine, four of which are women. The ratio of students accepted or not accepted this year was not equal on all denominational col- lege campuses, but UC students were given the same consideration granted all of the approximately 200 applicants who qualified. As to the meaning of the term, "qualified applicants," the commit- tee said it meant that (1) a student must have completed a full four- year college course ending in the spring, (2) evidence must be es- tablished of the applicant's Chris- tian loyalty, maturity, stability, and personal suitability, and (3) a GPA for the complete college course of not less than 1.5—"A" equaling 3, with science and non- science subjects computed separ- ately. John Westerberg, Sonya Woicinski, and Marieda Bfehm are first prize oratorical, poster and essay winners. They stand beside the whisksy bottle which has been "proved, tried, and hanged." MV Skit Is Trial Scene Joe Church (Laurie McLaugh- lin), hypothetical member of the College View Seventh-day Advent- ist church, was tried and convicted of violation of the Fourth Com- mandment of God's Decalogue March 19. This MV program was written and directed by Miss Shir- ley Burton in consultation with Bud Christensen and Bussell Strom. The court suspended the defend- ant's sentence and instructed the defendant to do the following: at- tend morning and evening worship, attend mission bands, study the Bible fifteen minutes every day, and meet the Master every day in daily devotions. OC Delegates Mend PE ^eel Mrs. Gladys Jeurink, assistant professor of biology at UC. and Jean Stevens, UC sophomore, are representing Union College at the eight-state University of Nebraska Physical Education Convention which will take place, April 7 to 9. Jean Stevens is chairman of the housing committee and will assist in greeting guests. Mrs. Jeurink is a member of the hospitality com- mittee. She will be in charge of two delegates to the convention and will introduce them at the opening meeting. Speakers for the convention will include three men from Washing- ton, D.C., and others from pedia- tric and orthopedic fields of medi- cine who will discuss various topics including "Why Physical Education is Beneficial to the Child." Drills and new methods will be taught. A highlight of the meetings will be the banquet Thursday night, April 8. Clock Tower Will Pay Cash To Readers Who Find Errors The CLOCK TOWER staff will pay $1.00 for each misspelled word found bv a reader in this or any of the next three issues of the CLOCK TOWER. The purpose of this cam- paign is to promote more readers, to make people conscious of correct spelling of words, to assure people of a nearly if not absolutely perfect CLOCK TOWER, and to somewhere, sometime give someone a little mon- ey (although we hope not). The rules are as follows: Mistakes found must be in spell- ing of words and names only (not in punctuation, grammar, or capi- talization since not everyone is ac- quainted with the CT style sheet). The first person to find a mistake and show it to the editor-in-chief, or the earliest postmarked letter to come to the editor's desk will be awarded $1.00 in cash. Reinmuth Explains "Meaning of Meaning" Dr. Harry G. Beinmuth, profes- sor of modern and Biblical lan- guages, was chapel speaker for March 25 and 26. His topic was "The Meaning of Meaning." He presented a similar discussion on television several weeks ago. Speaking of education, Dr. Rein- muth said, "The greatest lack in the college student of today is that he doesn't know how to read—not that he doesn't read well mechani- cally but that he doesn't under- stand the meaning of words." The winner of the annual tem- perance oratorical contest spon- sored by the Union College Chap- ter of the American Temperance Society Saturday night, March 20, was John Westerberg, Sioux City, Iowa. Other contestants won sec- ond, third, and fourth, namely: Don Dick, Lincoln, Nebraska; Jer- ry McGiil, Wichita, Kansas; and Maurice Bascom, Des Moines, Iowa. Prizes awarded were: first— $40, second—$30, third-$15, and fourth—$5. Over-all chairman was Elder D. E. Reiner, Central Union director of the ATS. Judges were: Elder E. T. Gackenheimer, Missouri director of the ATS; Mr. Robert E. Cleve- land, history professor at Union College; Elder E. E. Lutz, pastor of the SDA church in Wichita, Kansas; Police Sergeant Herman Vander Griend, Lincoln; and Elder R. E. Spangle, secretary-treasurer of the Nebraska conference. First prize winners of the ATS essay, poster, and jingle contests were: essay, Marieda Blehm, Okla- homa, $20; poster, Sonya Woicin- ski, Texas, $20; and jingle, John Westerberg, Iowa, $10. Second, third, and fourth prize winners of the essay, poster, and jingle contests were: essay — Ray Bailey, Rosalie Haffner, and Alice Schoun; poster—Ray Bailey, Rich- ard Burton, and Wayne Hays; jingle - Ardell Rouse, Bill Cavin, and Virginia Durichek.

Pre-Med Club Banquets At Cornhusker Hotel Doctors' bags, nurses' caps, and hospital charts helped to create an appropriate atmosphere for the an- nual banquet of Mu Epsilon Delta, the Pre-med club, Wednesday night in the Georgian room of the Cornhusker hotel. Over eighty people, pre-profes- sional students and their guests, were present to hear Bill Cavin em- cee the program which included the Hub of Harmony quartet singing "Dry Bone s" and "M a g i c and Mirth," a magician's antics, two of the highlights of the evening. The theme was strictly medical with miniature hospital charts for the programs--and doctor bags for nut cups. Other contest winners included winners of the ATS academy ora- torical contest for representatives of the states of Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska, and Wyo- ming. Winners were Shirley Leep- er, first, Sunnydale Academy, Cen- tralia, Missouri; Ted Wick, second, Campion Academy, Loveland, Col- orado; Phyllis Larson, third, Union College Academy, Lincoln; Patsy Gustin, fourth, Platte Valley Acad- emy, Shelton, Nebraska; and Jay Dirksen, fifth, Enterprise Academy, Enterprise, Kansas. First award was $40; other contestants received $15.

HEINRICH Optometrist 4735 Prescott Avenue Lincoln, Nebraska MA Seminar Supplies Sreaking Experience Because of the lack of oppor- tunity for ministerial students to gain experience speaking before an actual audience, the Ministerial Association has been carrying on a different program this year. At the seminar meetings, which are held every other Friday night, any- where from two to five students speak. Each sermon is about five minutes long. At the close of the meeting constructive criticism is given from the audience. There are over 100 ministerial students at UC, and it is planned that all will be given an opportunity to speak before the year is out. Everyone is invited to the meet- ings at 7:00 p.m. in the chapel. cQryi'zll Suitcaded Addail lAG "Be sure your sins will find you out," and "Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap" were the texts of Elder Oswald's chapel talk March 22. The truthfulness of these texts was shown by several illustrations. What Gcut A Pio-Jjeldo-i Pio.jje.dd? There are three possible answers. Ho may refrain from saying any' thing that he believes, in which case he is worthless. He may hon- estly and frankly state his conclu- sions on the problems he has stud- ied and win the disapproval of the pseudo-patriots. Thirdly, he may state only part of his conclusions (those which will offend none of the controlling interests in society), which is misrepresentation and dis- honesty. This places the poor professor in a terrible predicament. The first alternative is not only unworthy but impossible; even when an in- structor selects a textbook, he is stating his belief that the book is worth reading, and he must give his opinion of it. The second posi- tion is the most desirable but ap- parently the least practical. The only thing left for him is to present tactfully only part of his views. Students should be aware of this and co-operate with their instruc- tors .... When a professor does have courage, we should be careful not to misinterpret or misquote him. We need also to determine which of the three possible posi- tions the instructor is taking and evaluate his teachings accordingly. The Davenport Barber Shop ' It Pays To Look Well" Ajjtel QlCl&uatfa Alden Jensen, director of music in the public schools of Willmar, Minnesota, spent Sabbath, March 27, renewing old acquaintances on the campus. Attending the college and acad- emy temperance contest held last week at the college were Floyd Eccles, '50, of Platte Valley Acad- emy; Gilbert Bader, '50, of Enter- prise Academy; and Felix Lorenz, Jr., of Sunnydale Academy. They were the sponsors of the temper- ance societies at their academies. Also in attendance were Ben J. Lie- belt, '45, of Colorado, Elmer E. Hagen, '35, of Kansas, and Morten Juberg, '48, of Wyoming, temper- ance secretaries in their confer- ences. Mrs. George Stacey (Mary Mc- Comas, '28), of Effingham, Kansas, recently spent a few days with her son and daughter who are second generation students attending Un- ion. Mr. and Mrs. W. Y. Zork, '51 and '52, district leaders of the Wil- low Springs district in Missouri, and Mr. and Mrs. William Wiist, '49, teachers at Sunnydale Acad- emy, have received calls to the mission field. The Zorks will go to the African field while the Wiists go to the island field. Mr. and Mrs. Glenn D. Johnson, both of '52, of Sheyenne River Academy; Sandra Anderson and George Fisher, '53, both on the fac- ulty at Ozark Academy, spent their spring vacation visiting relatives and friends at the college. Francis Knittel, '47, dean of boys at Campion Academy, recently suf- fered a broken leg and dislocated ankle while skiing near the acad- emy. He was brought down the mountain by means of a toboggan and the ski patrol. He is carrying on his work with the help of crutches. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Cole, '49, who have been working in the Tex- ico conference, are en route to Cen- tral America where they are to be teachers at the Central American Training School in Costa Rica. Mrs. Daniel Gerst (Aletha Mc- Girr), '47, is teaching an evening class in intermediate typing at the University of Nebraska. Perhaps the greatest detriments to life, limb, and the pursuit of happiness on the college campus are the portable bookcases, sta- tionery supply warehouses, and general carry-alls that are grouped under the misnomer, "brief cases," and. scattered thither and yon to be tripped over. The time was when one could tell, a married student, usually a ministerial prospect, from the foot- loose and fancy-free student mere- ly by noting that the former car- ried his portable land mine or booby trap with him everywhere. Of late, however, even this has become a futile method of ascer- taining the difference between the "moon-eyed" and the "honey- mooners," because I have noticed some of the younger set—simple, gullible, non-ministerial, single bucks—falling before the onslaught of these insidious suitcase salesmen and supporters. And what are the advantages of having one of these carry-alls? They have an adaptability and car- rying capacity second only to a lady's handbag. The following is a ("typical"?) list of the contents carried in one of these monstrosi- ties: 1. Six school books 2. Unabridged dictionary (Web- ster, of course) 3. The complete writings of Mrs, E. G. White 4. One volume of the SDA Bible Commentary (so far) 5. A notebook 6. One-half dozen spare pencils 7. Three-fourths ream of wide- lined 8'2': x 11" paper 8. Four colors of ink 9. A pitch pipe 10. A UC bulletin 11. Volume 17 of Compton's En- cyclopedia "borrowed" from the reference room of the UC Library for a special class report 12. One polished apple—this is the last of six purchased earlier in the morning 13. One-half copy of the CLOCK TOWER, (Nov. 5 issue) In systematic theology class last week, Elder Wallenkampf, after explaining the fact that he had giv- en fourteen incompletes, said, "As soon as you get your term papers in, we will remove your I's" (eyes). 14. Golden Cords (1953) 15. Sheaf of returned papers 16. Copy of Listen magazine (last quarter of 1953) 17. Nine sheets of stationery from dormitory campaign (1953) 18. Bottle of aspirins and a small glass 19. Two candy bars 20. One tithe envelope 21. Forty-nine green stamps 22. Temperance pledge card 23. Senior Recognition Day pro- gram 24. Two empty envelopes (print- ed Internal Revenue Service, and Selective Service System) 25. A bent skate kev (stamped "UC") 26. One airmail and four three- cent stamps 27. A band-aid 28. Six Bibles, one each of the following versions: King James, American Revised, Douay, Stand- ard Revised, Goodspeed, and Mof- fat The contents of this one brief case gives you just a glimpse of the useful purposes to which they are being put. I do not object to their capacity, convenience, color, weight, texture, or bulk in general except where by any or all of these virtues the afore mentioned arti- cles (brief cases) become a stum- bling block to the intellectual and physical development of the owner and. his classmates. The intellectual malnutrition is the result of the student's almost complete lack of familiarity with the library—and why shouldn't he? Almost any freshman, properly out- fitted with suitcase and the afore- mentioned list of contents need never set foot inside the library even to gather material for a fresh- man English research paper. Be- fore many moons the sophomores won't even know what the Dewey Decimal System is, let alone that historv books are found in the 700's (or is it 900's?).

AMERICA'S MOST POPULAR ELECTRIC SHAVER 4 CLOCK TOWER. APRIL 2, 1954 N*>ait eMail chattel My jjigrgfcre Band Visils Lincoln Homes "Oh, if I only knew how to pin on a boutonniere!" and "Aren't these flowers just gorgeous?" were famil- iar words that were heard coming from rooms of North hall Tuesday evening, March 23. Believe me, fel- lows, the girls were equally as ner- vous as you, even though this was your banquet! Even the few tiny raindrops didn't hinder the evening from becoming one of the most memorable of the year. <4 Wanted: A pair of bifocals for Shirley Duren who rushed into the dorm exclaiming she had seen some chocolate chlorophyll toothpaste at the store. Investigation showed that she had mistaken Colgate for cho- colate. Shirley Martindale was a wee bit embarrassed Tuesday evening on the way to the banquet when her shoes, mostly soles, kept falling off her feet. Oh well, her escort was patient and understanding—all turn- ed out well. * Credit goes to Mildred Horn- bacher for discovering a new sponge rug in the dark—or was that Maxine Rogers, who had fallen out of bed and was peacefully slumber- ing on the floor? How does it feel to be tread upon, Maxine? <4 Bette Jewell Lenz and Dorothy Rasmussen got into a cooking no- tion the other day and called B. J.'s father long distance for a good rec- ipe. They ended up making "Knip- fla," a sort of doughy mixture of "stuff." Gayle Rhoads, the victim, said it tasted like bubble gum and potatoes. During the cooking ses- sion Dot decided that the only way to remember the name of the reci- pe was to think of "conniption fits." Later, when Dot's roommate asked her what they cooked, after think- ing awhile with a puzzled look on her face, Dot replied, "epilepsy." <4 Yvonne Arvidson and Bebe Kald- ahl were lamenting the fact that supper wasn't being served at the regular time the night of the boys' banquet. Bebe, afraid of starving before eight o'clock, was encour- aged by Yvonne's statement, "Oh, well, let's go to worship; maybe Miss Remley will hand out Life Savers!" <4 Bells are confusing, aren't they, Gloria? Awakened the other morn- ing by a bell, Gloria Scott rushed down to the worship room trying to be prompt for morning worship. Curious as to why the room was empty, she made inquiries only to find out it was the first class bell. <4 KDL, upper division girls' club, had as a guest speaker the evening of March 17, Mrs. Charles Watson, supervisor of nurses at St. Eliza- beth's hospital. Her talk was on the subject of better grooming for col- lege girls. Three girls illustrated the proper dress for several different occasions. Many helpful suggestions are being carried out. Thanks, Mrs. Watson, very much for the informa- tive program! Last Saturday night Herman Guy was bringing his wife home from work at Saint Elizabeth's when they saw and picked up two senior nurs- ing students from Union College who were standing on the corner waiting for a bus. One of them, Mollie Hudson, was gingerly hold- ing a child's broom. Because it look- ed a little out of place for her pro- fession, Molly soon explained, "Oh, don't mind me, I work in the psy- chopathic ward and one of my pa- tients just gave this to me."

Real interest is being aroused by the tracts which are distributed weekly by the band. The tracts are in a series of twelve issues. The band meets in the Science hall at 1:30 o'clock each Sabbath afternoon, and Mr. Walter Page transports the members to the se- lected territory.

The boy who is just tak- ing the course for credit. The sleep- ers don't count unless thev snore. Born to: Mr. and Mrs. Gene Gilbert (Maurine Griffin), Linda Maurine, 8 lbs., IK oz., on March 20. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Dupper, '50 (Velma Lorenz, '49), Lvnnatte Jean, 7 lbs., on March 4. Mr. and Mrs. Donald E. Wood- ruff, '51 (Velma Johnson, '52), Roger Dean, 8 lbs., 12 oz., on March 3. Spring is bursting out all over! At least that is the impression one gets on Friday afternoons when doors all down the halls start pop- ping open and furniture is hurled out into the halls. The scrubber, waxer, and buffer hops from room to room, leaving those behind with a bright, mirror-like finish on the floor. <4 If spring house cleaning gives evidence of the official and unoffi- cial arrival of spring, other very noticeable indicators are softballs and baseballs that whiz from hand to mitt on the lawn. Boys are prac- ticing for the ball teams that play later on spring evenings just before worship and for the games at the all-school picnic. Several days ago second floor was honored with an art show put on by Robert Woods and Neal Danielson. The two had painted similar pictures of a Dutch scene (at least I think that's what they were). The pictures had a few minor imperfections such as green houses with lovely blue tile roofs, skys that have fallen into the sea, and people with blue faces. But, all in all, they were quite satisfac- tory and hung one evening at the corner where the two wings con- verge for the enjoyment of all those that passed by (and out)! <4 Sigma Iota Kappa extends thanks and gratitude to Miss Whit- field for her part in making their banquet the success that it was. Miss Whitfield planned our plates for us and assisted greatly on the decorations. Thanks again, Miss Whitfield. 4 One day when the weary backs of Don Nelson, Joe Eyman, Theron Ware, Russell Hoffman, and Ron- nie Nelson were bending over the shamrock that formed the back- ground for the stage at the ban- quet, a new knock-knock joke was born. Want to hear it? Knock- knock! Who's there? Irish! Irish who? "Irish" this shamrock was done. This was an original joke by Joe. Anyway it brought a laugh and eased the work for a few min- utes. And anyone who thinks punching little pieces of crepe pa- per through chicken wire is an easy job ought to try it sometime. 4 Visitors who were here in the dormitory in connection with the temperance orations for the acad- emies were Don and Jay Dirksen from Enterprise and Jim Black- burn from Sunnydale. Don and Jay were accommodated by a friend of theirs from last year, Ed Stacey. Ed was on tour with the band and did not get to see very much of his guests. Jim was a guest of Wel- don Fletcher. Of the three only Jay gave an oration, the others were visiting with those who did. Doug Hill was heard the other clay saying, "I don't like thin wo- men! Why I know one girl who is so thin that if she sat sideways in her seat in class she would be count- ed absent." <4 Well, so long, folks. This is just about all the small talk, compli- ments, slams, and general "clatter" that I can think of. See you in the next issue.
