XVII LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1942 NUMBER 10 President Attends C.M.E. Meeting Committee Discusses Shortening of Course President Rulkoetter attended a con- stituency meeting for the College of Me- dical Evangelists held in Los Angeles on Feb. 1. At this meeting preliminary study was given to some of the finan- cial problems arising out of the war. An- other problem has been caused from va- cancies left by members on the staff who have been called for army service, as is happening to medical institutions all over the United States. The committee also considered the ne- cessity of shortening their course, pos- sibly beginning sooner, which would per- mit them to end sooner. There was al- so discussion of a possibility of entering a second section in the middle of the year. No definite decisions were made and the constituency left the problems for the Board which was to meet Feb. 2 to handle. President Rulkoetter reports that the students from Union who are in medi- cine are doing very well. He saw Le- land Loewen, Ray Lewis, John Krauss, Elmer Wasemiller, and Robert Nystrom. He also saw Arlene Cornell, Ruth Ann Trygg, Loa Love, Dorothy Greene Sey- mour, and Margaret Niemoth. Broadcast Of Speech And Music Given By Students In Chapel The speech and music departments of the 'college presented an informal enter- tainment in the form of a broadcast on Saturday evening, Feb. 8. The audience imagined it was in a studio sitting in on various programs. Mr. Pettis served as narrator, explaining many of the terms used in radio parlance, and telling of happenings in radio land. A program of poetry and meditation with a musical background in which Ei- leen Mayberry, Oscar Torkelson, Arlene Church, and Robert Nordling took part was first. Then came Clarence Duffield, as Dr. I. Q., offering ice cream from the Union college dairy as a reward for cor- rect answers. "Dust of the Road" was graphically portrayed by Oscar Hein- rich, Morine Davis, James Stevens, and Charles Lickey. "Major Blows." who was James Stev- ens, revealed same hidden talent in his amateur program. Madeline Doumas, I Joseph Bergman, Herbert Knopp, Ed- ward Nordstrom, Merle Huston, and Lotus Perkins were the participants. Mr Engle with his orchestra gave the last broadcast. Those who served as an- nouncers for the various programs were Harold Wernick, Oscar Heinrich, Neal Becker, Francis Wernick, Herman Ki- censki, and Reynolds Hoffman. Union College Press Trains Craftsmen Martin Luther once said: "Next to the Son of God, the art of printing with n.c liable type is the greatest gift of our hez.venly Father to man." Printing is not a trade, it is a craft; it is a craft that serves and preserves civ- ilization more than any other. No other t fits so closely to the school curri- culum, with its various divisions, as that of printing. A knowledge of all things pertaining to daily life, is essential to become a success in this craft. It is of- ton called "the art preservative of all arts." The press here at Union has been ex- ;.anding and progressing, under the di- rection of Mr. J. B. Krauss, its manager. He is a member of the International As- sociation of Printing House Craftsmen, and lives up to its motto, "Share Your Knowledge." He believes that students J. B. Krauss in our schools have, and should have the right to learn as much as possible in the graphic arts craft. Last year was Mr. Krauss's first year with the Union College Press. During that time the work increased 33 1/3% over the previous year, and for the first six months of this year, the volume is in the same ratio over that of last. This is a sign of a healthy, though not spectacular growth. Mr. 'Clarence H. Dye, foreman in the Union College Press, connected with the plant about a year and a half ago, and he has shown exceptional ability as a leader. Under his care are about twenty- five workmen, the majority of whom are showing an increased efficiency in their work. This speaks well of the super- vision of the work under Mr. Dye's care. The Union College Press has no pro- duction line, for it feels duty bound to teach young people the printer's art while attending school. Work is done in the various branches of letter press print- ing in order to give the students a ver- satile training in different types of work. Union College Press puts out seven (See PRESS, page 2, col. 5- WORLD EVENTS BY VENOMOUS BEDE II Far Eastern Resistance Reports from Singapore tell of repeat- ed Japanese bombing and shelling of oil storage tanks on the north shore of the island. As the violence of the siege, now in its critical second week, mounted, Lieu. Gen. A. E. Percival, the British commander, acknowledged • some men, planes, ships and supplies had left the island but declared grimly: "We will hold Singapore. There is no question about it." MacArthur Holds Out in Philippines The war department reported Satur- day, Feb. 7, that Japanese heavy artil- lery rained heavy shells on three Amer- ican forts at the entrance of Manila Bay but no material damage was done. Meanwhile enemy artillery fire was heavy on the Bataan peninsula. Some siege shots were directed against Fort Mill on Corregidor and nearby Fort Hughes, The fort's guns returned the fire with undetermined results. Million Wanted for Army Air Force The war de,partment announced that the army air forces would be expanded to a million officers and men this year and double that number later on. As a part of the expansion plan, a number of cadets at the military academy at West Point will be graduated as pilots and thus save a year for air training, now required after graduation.

Almost every in- dividual who was asked to bear respon- sibility has responded. And how these leaders have worked in getting the or- ganization perfected! Then, each individual member of a team wrote and is still writing letters. It is anticipated that there will go out during this campaign somewhere be- tween seven and eight thousand letters. Now then if each individual who re- ceives a letter would respond with something, think of the results. We would easily reach our $4,500.00 goal and quite likely double it. So, students and teachers, shall not each of us continue the good work? Write, write, write. Write to father and mother, married brother and married sister, uncle and aunt, church friend, and business friend. Keep the good work going! Yours for a successful completion of the campaign, H. C. Hartman Students Will Be Able To Pay Tithe On Income From Labor At College Commencing June 3, it will be possi- ble for Union college students to pay tithe on their earnings at the college. Students can sign a voucher as to the amount of tithe they wish paid, and the school will turn over the money to the conference or church, from where a receipt will be sent to the students. Of course this plan is not compulsory; students are invited to take part in it. No Spring Vacation Say Authorities Will Close Week Early In order to accelerate the program of education for young men who face in- duction, it has been decided to eliminate spring vacation and shorten the second semester by one week. The closing date of the college will be May 24 instead of May 31. A twelve-hour summer school, covering eleven weeks will be offered, beginning June 1 and closing August 14. Sbme courses will extend over the entire eleven weeks, while others will close at the end of five and a half weeks when others will begin. A large variety of courses is promised in the summer session. This new plan will make it possible to complete college in three years and three summers instead of three years and four summers, though this is in no way compulsory. Other institutions of higher learning are also accelerating their plan of education. While the opening date of the fall term has not been decided definitely, it is possible that it may be one week la- ter than last year, bringing it to about the middle part of September. V Is Symbol Of Victory In Campaign and War Loyalty to country and school was the keynote of the meeting of the students of Union college which launched the drive to raise funds for a new recre- ation hall at the regular assembly hour Friday morning. The entire group stood at attention while the band played the National Anthem and the American flag was put in place. Then the 'band played the college song and the college flag was placed at the left of the speaker's desk. The leaders in the drive were intro- duced by James Chase, 'chairman of the entire student group. Mr. Chase also set forth the goal and aim of the drive. In the response given by the students they pledged themselves to be loyal in word and deed, first to their country , and then to their school. Mr. Chase suggested that the V for victory symbol has a double meaning to the students at Union college. victory in war and victory in this drive for a new recreation hall. H. C. Hartman, business the college, gave some suggestions on how to carry the drive to a successful finish, and the meeting was adjourned to give the unit leaders time to meet with their groups. CONSIDERATIONS FOR MEN CALLED TO SERVICE In view of the draft situation, the fa- culty of Union college in attempting to work with both the government and the students passed the following resolutions concerning tuition and course credit for those who are forced to leave during the semester: Voted, that the following provisions concerning tuition refund and course credit shall apply in the case of a stu- dent who withdraws during this semester to respond to the call of the draft 'board: If he has attended less than six weeks of the semester, his tuition will 'be refunded and no course credit shall be allowed. For any course in, which his aver- age is "C" or above: Weeks of Must pass Amount of attendance examination credit Six Required One-half Eight Not required One-half Twelve Required Full Fifteen Not required Full For any course in which his aver- tial credit courses may not satisfy the requirements of Boards of Licensure and —or sequence requirements in programs of study and it may, therefore, be neces- sary upon resuming their studies in Un- ion college to complete these credits or subject matter requirements. Campaign Drive For Recreation Hall Fund Begins Student Body Unites In Effort To Raise $4,500 The drive to raise funds for the new recreation hall is on. From the president of Union college to the newest student, each will do his part. And that will keep one busy, for there are letters to be written, projects to be worked out, and visits to be made. But this work will not be done at ran- dom. Just as there is system and order in every successful undertaking, sa there will be system and order in this cam- paign. The students are under the leader- ship of. James Chase, who is general chairman of the entire group. Under him are four vice-chairmen who are chosen according to Unions. Harold Roll is vice- chairman for the Central 'Union; Harold Wernick, for the Northern Union; Rosa Lee Hassenpflug, for the Southwestern Union; and Marjorie Schweder, for the Cosmopolitan group, or all those at- tending Union who do not come from any of the three unions mentioned. Next in rank are the captains or state leaders, and next to them are the lieutenants or team leaders. The number of lieutenants are deter- mined by the number of students from each state: those states having the larg- er number of students, have the larger number of lieutenants. The state cap- tains and lieutenants are as follows: For the Central Union—Kansas: cap- tain, Mercedes England; lieutenants, Morine Davis, Virginia Huenergardt, Charles Seitz and Oscar Torkelson; Col- orado: captain, Dale Aalborg; lieutenants, Mary Bess Johnson, John Boyd, Max Eckert, 'Lloyd 'Pruett, and Eileen May- 'b e r r y; Nebraska: captain: Arlene Church: lieutenants, Curtis Barger, Mavis Betts, Rendall Caviness, Marie Sanders, Vivian Jensen, and Helen Johnson; Mis- souri: captain, Robert Skinner, lieuten- ants, James Carter, Raymond Lunt, and David Rose; Wyoming: captain, Veta Mae Longfellow. For the Northern Union—South Da- kota: captain, Paul Kemper; lieutenants, David Claridge, Avis Erickson, Herbert Hohensee, and June Stiegelmeier; North Dakota: captain, Roy Henneberg; lieu- tenants, Wilbur Bitz, Gideon Haas, Os- car Heinrich, Estella Lang, James Pogue, and Elmer Herr; Minnesota: captain, Bonnie Bowman; lieutenants, Lynette Anderson, Mrs. Jerry Lien, Genevieve Dennis, Rolland Olson, and Willard Christensen; Iowa: captain, Edward Nordstrom; lieutenants, Wilbur Chap- man, Glenn Davenport. Violet Hansen, Frances Miler, Louise Westerbeck, Ro- sella Wiedemann, and Glenn Wiltse. For the Southwestern Union—New Mexico and Oklahoma: captain, Fabian Meier: lieutenant, Edward Wines; Ar- kansas-Louisiana and Texas: captain, Jack Bowers; lieutenant, Fred Moore. For the Cosmopolitan group—East: captain, Neal Becker; lieutenants, Lois Heiser and Vaughn Westermeyer; West: captain, Le Roy Leiske; lieutenants, Ralph Maddox and Gerry Heinrich. The academy has its own unit. Its captain is Lola Jane Rowland and the lieutenants are Gilbert Jorgensen., Billy Bob Widener, Blossom Church, and Audra Ching. Mr. Hartman is general campaign ad- viser; Dr. Ogden and Dr. Woods are also advisers. Dean Howell Visits Oak Park Dean Howell spent the week-end of Feb. 6 to 8 at Oak Park academy, in Nevada, Iowa, where he presented a lyceum number on South American cus- toms. Assisting him were Mr. and Mrs. Bernal, and Hazel and Russel Hagen. North Hall Women Hold Open House For Entire College North hall women entertained the fac- ulty and campus friends at an open house which was held Sunday evening, February 1. Groups began going through the dormitory at 7:30, with the last group leaving the lobby at 8:30. A buffet supper was served in the re- creation room of the dormitory which was decorated to resemble a colonial mansion in the old South. The program of the evening was held in the chapel. The welcome address was given by Gladys Moore, president of Kappa Theta, North hall girls' club. A chorus under the direction of Lou- ise Westerbeck and accompanied by Mrs. H. C. Hartman sang two selec- tions. Lynette Anderson gave a reading entitled "A Negro Wedding," after which a trio composed of Evelyn Sher- rig, Jula Joan Rowland, and Helen Seitz sang. The Evolution of Always Do Wrong was a pantomine in which a girl was shown before and after arriving under the influence of North hall. When the girl, "Always Do Wrong," first came to North hall, she was typical of her name. Her dress, her manners, her language, her tastes, and her customs were not in- deed those of a cultured young lady, but through the reforming influence of "Good Music," "Good Reading," "Good Posture," "Merry Sunshine," and other helpful friends, "Always Do Wrong" was changed into "Loves to do Right" who was a refined young lady that enjoyed her home in North hall. Ella and Viola Schmidt sang a duet and then the chorus returned singing "End of a Perfect Day" with Lotus Perkins carrying the solo part. Group leaders who conducted the tour through the dormitory included 1-laziel Clifford, Mary Ann Johnson, Irma Fay Berbohm, Gladys Moore, Morine Davis, Mildred Schrader, Veta Mae Longfel- low, Virginia Eden, Eileen Mayberry, Gladys Brown, Rosa Lee Hassenpflug, Alice Mae Hadden, Duene Lyon, Esther Schneider, Dorothy Lessley, Emma Beck, Gerry Heinrich, Violet Eastin, Georgi- anna Spanos, Audra Wood, Ruth Mit- chell, Roma Belle Snyder, Frances Pride, Evelyn Halverson, Virginia Lohmann, Mary Bess Johnson, Valerie Ware, Mer- cedes England, Marvel Curtis, Geral- dine Christensen, Helen Bliss, Alma Ol- son, Virginia Huenergardt, Wanda Sat- urley, Eleanor Engeberg, Helen Temple, and Ruby Ramesbotham. manager of UNION USBRAIRY LINCOLN, NEBRASKA Am I A Mental Cipher? Today there are living in the world thousands of individuals who might be called mental ciphers. They neither take anything from nor add anything to the "things" of life which go to make up what we call culture. They have no urge to delve into the vast un- known. They feel no obligation to use their hidden talents in a way which will be beneficial, not only to themselves, but to their associ- ates. Neither adding nor subtracting. They respond like true ciphers. "Am I a mental cipher?" This is a question each one of us should ask himself. Would that we all could answer it in the nega- tive! Do I attend chapel and listen to the proceedings while in a state of mental sleepiness? During class recitations and intellectual dis- cussions do I sit back and wonder why such "dry" subjects are ever considered? Is my attitude toward speakers one of indifference? When taking notes do I fail to grasp quickly new and important ideas? If so, I am a mental cipher. Do informative books bore me? Does the beauty of descriptive poetry escape my interest? Am I content to dream all day about wonderful days ahead while slighting the fundamental subjects of today? Am I a boresome conversationalist? Do my friends go to an- other for advice and help? If I must answer "Yes" to all of these, a zero will be placed as the record of my mental worth. Am I a mental cipher? Are you?

No More Autos America's major industry died in De- troit last week.

Churchill Wins Vote of Confidence On his return to England from his trip to America, Winston Churchill found a House of Commons grimly a- ware that the British Empire was fac- ing one of the greatest crises of its existence. Under similar cirrumstances Another Job for Teachers The nation's public school teachers were given last week the task of issu- ing sugar rationing books to every man, woman, and child in the nation and were directed to crack down on hoard- ers by withholding the sweet from them until their supplies are used up. Books containing stamps will be distributed en- titling each individual to a strictly limit- ed quantity of sugar—probably 12 oun- ces a week. And St. Valentine's Day is just around the corner! MUSIC NOTES In vespers, Jan. 30, a girls' trio con- sisting of Violet Hansen, Louise Wester- beck, and Helen Seitz sang "Living for Jesus," Miss Kiehnhoff at the piano. The same evening, the vespers' string quartet with Russel Hagen in the place of Grace Burke who had left Union, played Shu- mann's "Traumerei." In Sabbath school of the 31st, those present heard James Stevens sing as a bass solo, "The Stranger of Galilee." Norman Krogstad accompanied. The missionary volunteer meeting of the same day offered two specials. Art Lickey, tenor soloist, sang "Blest Be the Tie That Binds," a recent compo- sition of Norman Krogstad who also ac- companied. The academy girls' trio em- bracing Frances Chamberlain, Mary Ka- therine Woods, and Lola Jane Rowland sang "Beautiful Garden of Prayer." Mrs. Hartman accompanied.

Then will you tell briefly—" Patient A disappeared again. This time we had a harder time reassuring him. We tried once more: "Outline the development of the blackout, together with the predis- posing causes and with the after affects of same." "Please don't talk that way," begged A. "You make me think every time that those bombs are falling all over again. And me with an empty head. A person with something in his head might survive an air raid, but not me. You want to know something about the ordeal? Well, it harrows my soul to go over it again, but for the sake of incoming students, I will do it. I'm not very clear on the details—never am. But my general im- pression is that all of my teachers, who have always 'claimed to be my friends— advisers they called themselves—and who are so advertised in the handbook, began all at once to sling regular bombs at me. They did it all week. And I want to tell you that the sound of a bomb is an awful thing. Some of them sound like this; "Trace very briefly Carolingian scholarship, especially in the fields of history and literature and any others that you happen to know about," or "Discuss and evaluate the work of 25 outstanding English authors," or "Present a brief outline of the history of England." Things like that," he sighed, "get you down, and when it goes on all week—." We interviewed other victims who made the same statements as Patient A. Long we surveyed the sorrowful scene and when we could bear it no longer, we told them that everything would be all right now and went on our way. At last report, many of the patients are brightening up, taking a turn for the better, and verging into convalescence. FLASH!!

The nations all Thou dost control; Thou knowest well each heart and soul. Each pain, each woe, and dreadful fear All canst Thou cause to disappear. And just as well Thou knowest me; To Thee I come with humble plea. Oh make me, Lord, so true and pure, That earthly fears cannot endure. Thou knowest the times in which we dwell; The nations' futures canst Thou foretell Our war-sick world is rocked in pain; Sin and destruction seem its aim. But 'midst all this, true I must be, To keep my life prepared for Thee. Make me, Father, courageous, strong, And keep from me, all earthly wrong. Strengthen me, Lord, for trials nigh; Send me grace from Thy throne on, high. If battle-fields should be my share, May I my part with valor bear. It seems so hard to sacrifice, For war does cost us such a price— Our work, studies, and loved ones, too. Must all be left we wished to do? There is another, Lord, with me, Who plans to share my destiny. What of that friendship kept so near? Must all be lost we hold so dear? My future, God, is in Thy hands; I stand prepared for Thy demands. Life seems so dear, I hope to stay, But use me, Father, as Thou may.

For same time now, and especially since the gymnasium was con- demned, the Medical Cadet training pro- gram has been greatly hindered because it has had no place of any adequate size in which to 'conduct its work in in- clement weather. The new building will help to eliminate that problem. It will provide room for formations and for the entire corps to carry one such train- ing activities as litter drill combined with First-aid, bandaging, and military splint- ing practice, and as disciplinary close order drill. It will give room enough for the Medical Cadet physical training pro- gram, including chiefly mass calisthe- nics, which demands a great deal of space, and organized group games. Im- portant also is the fact that the building will make it possible for a number of small groups to carry on different training activities at the same time and still have elbow-room and be able to hear what is being said by the instructors. The Medical Cadet corps, in the pro- cess of its expansion in recent months and years, has acquired a considerable quantity and variety of valuable equip- ment. It now has no place to store this equipment in order to keep track of it and to protect it from dirt, theft, • and destruction of various sorts. This urgent need for a supply office-storeroom may also be filled by the erection of the new recreation hall. Finally, rain or shine, for certain parts of its training schedule, the Medical Ca- det corps needs a large indoor class- room where it may have the privacy and quiet demanded in a classroom and still have room enough to put on ex- tensive demonstrations, and to move about and carry on activities that re- quire the use of bulky equipment. Rosa Lee Hassenpflug • As I sub-consciously strolled from the dining room towards the Normal build- ing yesterday, my eyes automatically turned to the now vacant plot of ground behind South hall. All I could see was an old log which in times past served as a basket ball goal, and a crop of last year's dried-up grass. This didn't seem to me to be a spot becoming to our otherwise attractive 'campus. In almost the same moment I remembered that this scene will change, for soon that portion of our campus will be transformed into a thing of beauty and a joy for the stu- dents now here, and for you who are looking forward to the day when you will enroll at Union college. We now have on our campus two buildings of which we are very proud— the Library and the Don Love Industrial building. Both were planned by Mr. Me- ginnis, architect of Lincoln, and he has also laid plans for our new recreational hall. Let me remind you that this gym will be a memorial to what we as a student body have done. People will not soon forget our enthusiasm and in years to come, as they view the new recreational hall, they will say, "See what the stu- dents did back in 1942!" Then won't you feel proud? ALL'S WELL The clouds, which rise with thunder, slake Our thirsty souls with rain; The blow most dreaded falls to break From off our limbs a chain; And wrongs of man but make The love of God more plain.

J. P. LAURENCE - Students should have relaxation." C. T., 333. This statement is as true today as when written. A place for student re- laxation or recreation has been lacking this year 1941-42 at Union. The future looks bright. A true college education must include the social as well as the physical, men- tal and spiritual. Our young people de- sire to be happy Christians; they want to enjoy life. In their search for this happiness, very often they fail to find that which is good; we must have some- thing to offer them in the way of Chris- tian recreation. Very often I have been asked, "Dean, what is a fellow supposed to do, just sit in the corner and read all the time?" Young people want activity. If we fail to supply that want, which is more than a want, a definite need, I feel that we must stand partially responsible when they look elsewhere for satisfaction. I am not an extremist. I do not be- lieve in wasting time playing at games, but I do know that many of our young people will be lost because they do not find the correct solution to the social phase of their life. Many persons come to Union expecting a solution for this problem. Union must be able to satisfy this quest. Our recreation building will prove to be a means of making young people happy, and happy, satisfied Christians are real workers. Harold Wernick What will the new recreation hall, for which we are working so hard, mean to a future student of Union college? Of course, it will mean much to him. As he plans with eager anticipation his stay at Union college, he thinks of hard work and long hours of study. He pictures himself tired and weary after a busy day or week, but he looks forward to a place apart from the classroom where he can forget his studies nod work for a moment and relax in healthful recrea- tion. If he were to come to Union college today he would be greatly disappointed, for there is no place provided for such relaxation, which is essential to every normal college student. Union college recognizes her need and is determined to provide such a place which is so much needed by her students. This is one of the purposes for which the new recreational hall has 'been plan- ned. Everyone is full of enthusiasm for the prospect of a place large enough to accommodate such activities of the school. It will be a real help in making the school life of Union's future stu- dents more useful and enjoyable. MISS SAMPSON Few people would think of following a diet that was so unbalanced as to al- low the person to eat nothing but fats for the first five years and just carbohy- drates for the next five years, nor, would they countenance a program that required strenuous exercise for the first ten years and complete rest for the next decade. But we are apt, in this day of speed and industry to be quite as un- reasonable by failing to provide for pro- per balance in our daily programs of living. Too often, our high geared study and work program leaves us eventually, without a "favorable balance" in our health audit. Because nature does not mete out her rewards and punishments immediately, we are often inclined to think only of the present. In this case we are quite as superficial in our reason- ing as was the little boy in this story. When Johnny aked his mother for a third piece of cake, she told him she didn't think it would be wise for him to eat any more 'cake as he wouldn't be able to sleep very well on such a sto- mach. "Never mind, mother," said John- ny, "give me the cake, because I sleep on my back anyway." Organized education is the process of guiding the student toward his highest possible development physically, mental- ly, socially, and spiritually. Physical and health education are but two aspects of this great project: Formal class work and informal supervised activities make valuable contributions to this project. With America very defense-minded, schools and communities are being urged to give greater emphasis to physical and health education. Just this week, I re- ceived a letter from a national associa- tion which is urgently requesting all col- leges and universities to do all they pos- sibly can to: 1. Increase their facilities for physical education and to make these available as many days a week as pos- sible. 2. Provide for 'complete medical examination—especially for college men —with follow up work for remedial de- fects found. 3. Increase the number of courses offered, such as, First-aid, Mili- tary and Social Hygiene, Home Nurs- ing, etc. Dr. Thomas Parran, Surgeon General of the United States says, that physical fitness, and moral and mental stamina will determine to a large extent the ef- fectiveness of all other defense measures. "If we fail in these, we can leave our planes unbuilt, and our battleships on paper, we shall not need them." The students and teachers have all missed the gymnasium tremendously this year. The classes in physical education and in Medical Cadet corps are carrying on under considerable handicaps. We are all looking forward to our new re- creation hall for it will mean much to students and faculty alike by offering increased opportunity and room for phy- sical exercise and recreation. "To live is not sufficient. We need also the JOY of LIVING." The joy of living demands health. Harold Roll Many of us used to complain because our gym was such a poor building, but we just did not realize how really swell it was until we 'came to the point of being without it. We used to have times for skating—or maybe it should be called surf riding—because in one time around one would ride more waves than he could in a whole day at the beach. It's sure great to think that our new gym floor will be so smooth that a person skating will think he is on ice, and too it will be so much larger that there will be almost no comparison. This is an ex- tremely worthwhile project for us stu- dents to work on, and I haven't even mentioned the adequate space it will provide for games and large group meet- ings. James Chase Since Oct. 18, 1941, when the "old gym" was condemned to destruction, student sentiment for a new recreational hall has been especially strong. We need a new hall and nearly everyone recog- nizes that fact. Many have vowed that if ever the op- portunity came to assist in the raising of funds for a new hall, they would do their share. The opportunity has pre- sented itself. The results of the chapel question- naire were excellent. Ninety-seven per cent of the students answering the ques- tion, "Are you favorable to a student campaign for the purpose of raising funds for the recreational hall?" answer- ed "yes." And so the campaign plans have care- fully been organized. V re, have pledged our assistance in this campaign. The world will not know who attend- ed college here in '42, but they will not forget what we did here! It is for us to do. Let's do it! MISS PEARL REES Real college life, as every one knows, does not consist entirely of books, study periods, recitations, and work. A well- rounded education includes many inter- esting activities outside the classroom. Union college desires to encourage such activities as will stimulate intelligent. physical, social, and religious develop- ment. Participation in the extra-curricu- lar life of the college encourages de- sirable initiative and expression and de- velops leadership, pleasing personality, acid good citizenship. This year Union college is most de= cidedly handicapped in that the gymnas- ium was condemned early in the school year and there is no place on the cam- pus large enough for whole school social functions and other large extra-curricula, activities. But we are most happy that the college board seeing our great need, has made possible the erection of a new recreational hall which will ade- quately care for all our social need, Here the large social functions of the college will be held and here definite contributions to the life on the campus will be made. The whole college family is looking/ . forward with happy anticipation to tins delightful social times we shall have in the very near future in the new recrea- tional hall. Marjorie Schweder "There's a gym at Union," added one of my friends to the conversation as tc where I should take my pre-nursing course. This suggestion, I can not help but admit, caused me to become a little more interested in this college on the plains, and in the end was one of tine deciding factors which led me to believe that Union was the college for me. Physical education class seemed ilk( real 'class, playing volley ball on a real gym floor, and basket ball games on Saturday evenings was tops to me, t', say nothing of skating and ample room for marches. Fun ended all too soon with the doleful announcement in chapel that, the gym was condemned—but then, most in the same announcement plann were being laid for a larger and better equipped recreation building. Having been out of a school a fey, years, I have observed the need of a cf*-- • finite program of physical education and the importance of a building devoted to this phase. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," is more of the truth than poetry; relaxation in the form of an organized procedure and in the so- cial aspect should be a definite part of a student's program. This makes for ;') well-rounded education. Union has been without a gym for so months and there never will be another such six months.—The campaign - is on and didn't I hear Mr. Hartman, say, "The nails are ordered and have arrived - Let's keep pounding them in with all the dollars you good Clock Tower .reacl- ers are going to roll in.

Union college students who have been accepted by the College of Medical Evangelists are: Norman Campbell, Clarence Hilliard, Alfred Mazart, Roll- and Olson, James Reece, Frances Reis- wig, Vaughn Westermeyer, and James Carter. Teachers Take Class In First - Aid Mrs. M. J. Clark enroutc from Pacific Union college to her home in College- dale, Tenn, was a recent visitor of Misses Hall and Watt, Wilmer Unterseher has been called for army service. The faculty members are finding out what it means to go to school again, and they like their teacher, too. On Monday evening, Feb. 2, Mr. George Stone organized the faculty into a First- aid study group. This class will meet once a week until the Red Cross course in First-aid has been completed, and the examinations taken. As a substitute for the gymnasium as a place of recreation the large room on the south side of the North hall basement —in former years, the Bindery—has been converted into a temporary Student Union room. On Tuesday and Thurs- day evenings, between 6 and 6:30 p.m., students are permitted to gather there and relax by means of marching and games of various types. Quite a large number of students are taking advantage of this opportunity. Dr. J. R. Mitchell from the Dental college in Atlanta, Ga., will interview students on Feb. 13 who are interested in taking the dental course at that col- lege. Mr. Holmes sponsored a group of teacher training students who visited Shelton academy Jan. 28-29, in order to observe actual conditions of secondary school teaching. Those who went were: Clara Gilbert, Rosa Lee Hassenpflug, Maxine Rudy, Margaret Blue, Alice Mac Hadden, Arlene Church, Lois Hei- ser, Ruth Wightman, Adel Kougl, Rey- nolds Hoffman, Norman Krogstad, Fa- bian Meier. GENEVIEVE BRADLEY WEDS IN SEATTLE Genevieve Bradley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bradley of Lincoln, was married on Jan. 30 to Dr. Paul Johnson in Seattle, Wash. The ceremony was performed by Elder Don Spillman, a former student at Union, who is now pastor of the Central Seattle church. The wedding took place at 2 o'clock at the home of Dr. Arnold Johnson, uncle of the groom. A buffet luncheon was serv- ed following the ceremony. Mrs. Johnson completed the grade school and academy here and attended college three . years. Last summer she graduated from a business economics course at the University of Nebraska. Dr. Johnson is interning at the Seattle General hospital.

It is practically bubbling over with mirth and gaiety. Everybody who works there greets you with a happy smile as it she didn't have a care in the world. Well, now, cares and perplexities come I) the best of us; some days must be dark and dreary, you know. Up until about a week ago, the registrar's office svas no exception. But now it looks like it had just read all 26 of the Pollyanna 'ooks and had taken them to heart. "Why," we ventured to ask, "does 3fich sweetness and light emanate from this region?" It wasn't a secret at all, we discovered. The registrar's office was happy to tell me. The story goes like this: For 50 years the registrar's office has c irried on an unsuccessful practice. Un- successful in that it has had to spend most of its time and energy in chasing di..)wn grades. Grades that professors jiatad-naturedly forgot to turn in. May- be you never tried chasing down a grade. The registrar's office, which has had 50 y..;ars of practice at it, assures me that if: is calculated to bring grey hairs at 30. And when you practically earn your sal- ary doing it,—well—you start having nightmares about it. Every 9 weeks the registrar's office got up a little goal de- vice to help the teachers get their grades in. They tried stopping salaries till the grades were in. They emphasized broth- erly love and loyalty to the school. To no avail. "Life." said the registrar's of- fice, "was becoming not worth living." Then all at once something very amaz- io..3 happened. This year on Thursday, the day set for handing in grades, they . came in. Learning had taken place. All was sweet and lovely, after 50 years. We were properly impressed. It was mi item of outstanding significance. "How," we asked Miss Lea, "do you :recount for it? Or do you?" Oh, yes, that's simple," she told us. ' We told them that if everybody got his grades in, we'd have a party." Just a little psychology.

Anderson, Union's "grand old man," held at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Everett Dick on Tuesday afternoon and evening, Jan. 27. Profes- sor Anderson was presented with sever- a(• gifts, the most valuable of which was a deluxe Royal portable typewriter, giv- en by his friends and former students now in all parts of the United States. Among other gift s were a horn cane flom the island of Bali in, the Dutch East Indies, a large "Memory Book of My Seventy-Fifth Birthday Annivers- ary," and a "Diamond Jubilee" birthday book in which the guests registered their names. Telegrams and scores of birthday cards added to the joy of the occasion. One card that appealed strongly to Pro- fessor Anderson was the head of a Chinaman with a real queue, made by the art teacher of Union college. This helped him to recall the years of service lie spent in China. Punch and cake were served to the guests. The climax of the evening came when Prof. Anderson cut the three-tier birthday cake which had been made by the hostess. Assisting the hostess, Mrs. Everett Dick, at the reception were Mrs. A. C. Cornell, I. F. Blue, Charles McWil- liams, F. E. Bresee, and the Misses Ava Covington, Mary Sue Huffhines, Lois Heiser, Marjorie Hight, Gladys Moore, Ferne Jacobs, Marie Sanders, Virginia Huenergardt, Mary Hindmarsh, and Mr. Elwin Dick. After the blackout was over, and the air was filled with the moans of the wounded, the nurses and physicians hastened to give comfort and relief. The group had been unable to retire to a bomb shelter; consequently there was a high percentage of damage done. Many bombs had apparently scored a direct hit. Of the 450 persons involved, not one had escaped injury of some type. Some injuries, naturally, were of a more superficial nature than others; some stu- dents had done all within their power to prepare for the 'bombing; others, appar- ently in a foolhardy spirit, had taken few precautions. After a brief glance at the scene of the tragedy, the nurses went into action. Some patients were suffering from sev- ere contusion of the brain; many had lame arms; and all were suffering from serious shock and prolonged exposure. None of them had slept for a week. Let us, with the physician, observe a typical case. Patient A's brain seems to be paralyz- ed. For over a week that region has been numb. Thus far no sensation has brought forth any response. There is not the slightest vestige of thought ap- parent. It is like an empty house; there is nobody home. But now, the higher processes seem to be quickening; a slight , color is replacing the classroom pallor.1 Now that it is no longer such a supreme necessity, even a dim semblance of in- telligence is returning to the face. Patient A sits up. He looks around vaguely at the outside world, which he has not noticed for awhile. "How do you feel?" we ask him, crowding around sympathetically about him. "0, my head, my poor head!" moans A. "There's nothing in it." This reply puzzles us. Why should an empty head make any difference? We have gotten along all right thus far, and our head has long been empty. We told him so. "Well," said he, "I never thought it any 'cause for alarm either, until that blackout. 0 me. My poor head!" "What is a blackout?" asked we, tak- ing out our little notebook and sticking out our nose for news. "Would you like to discuss it at length?" At this, Patient A gave a wild bellow of terror and disappeared under the covers. "Why, what's the matter, old man?" we said, dragging him out and showing him that there was nothing to be afraid of. "0," said he, "I see.
