Figuhrr Ochs are  
Guests of College  
Elders B. B. Figuhr and W. B.  
Ochs were guests on the college  
campus Monday morning March  
11.  
President of the General Confer- 
ence of Seventh-day Adventists,  
Fighur spoke to the student body  
and staff during the chapel period  
in the College View Church.  
In the brief moments he spoke,  
Figuhr commended Union College  
for the large number of graduates  
that have gone from this institution  
to find their places in the work of  
the Lord throughout the earth. He  
stated that he was happy to greet  
the student body in behalf of these  
young people all over the world 
and that they, with us, are march- 
ing forward in the cause of God, 
dedicating their lives to the finish- 
ing of His work.  
Figuhr and Ochs were attending  
meetings of the Central Union  
conference committee.  

A Christ-like life has been the  
focal point of attention during the 
spring week of devotion, conducted 
by the Barron brothers.  
Elder Richard Barron, speaker  
for the week, emphasized the 
Christian's need for Christ in his  
life. "Only when we keep our  
eyes fixed upon Christ," he said, 
"can we gain victory over sin and 
really enjoy life to its fullest."  
The Man Who Knew Men, The  
Man Who Enjoyed Life and The  
Secret of Partnership With God 
were a few of the topics considered  
throughout the week.  
Highlighting the meetings were  
the vocal solos of Elder Henry Bar- 
ron. At the end of each evening's  
talk he sang Jesus, I Come. Alumni  
of La Sierra College, the Barron  
Brothers are now working together  
as an evangelistic team in the Tex-
as conference.  
Students told of their religious  
experience, the way that they be-
came Seventh-day Adventists, and 
their plans for the future in inter- 
views with Elder Henry Barron at  
the beginning of each morning ser- 
vice.  
Testimonies were given in groups  
of approximately twenty students  
each in contrast to one large ser- 
vice. These "prayer circles" met  
each morning at various locations 
over the campus following the  
meeting.  
Practical thoughts on personal  
experience in Christian living were  
discussed each evening in an after"  
meeting.  
The Barron Brothers will also  
conduct the church service here to- 
morrow.  
Four Pre-dents  
Accepted At C.M.E.  
Four Union College pre-dental  
students received their acceptances  
to the College of Medical Evange- 
lists School of Dentistry this past  
week following the first meeting  
of the Admissions Committee.  
Students included in this group  
are Lloyd Johnson, William Soper, 
Richard Thompson and former  
student, Estol Pruett, who attended  
Union in 1951.  
M. Webster Prince, Dean of the  
School stated that the entire 1957- 
58 freshman class has not yet been  
selected and that others of the  
class will be accepted at the April  
meeting of the Admissions Com- 
mittee.  
Recognition Services Honor Eighty-Eight  
This ycor's eighty-eight seniors march to the auditorium for the annual senior  
recognition  service held on March 8. Dean Ogden presented  the class of '57 to

Pre-Professional Clubs Hold Annual Banquets  
\MM  
Near the mailbox several heads turned as the desk girl read from a  
letter the name Enna TestihwP ? ? P and the address: the empty box  
club. Whether it was signed Kcuhc Nomloh was not disclosed by the  
recipient.  
Alsc along the theme so dear to the hearts of all dorm residents,  
the mailbox, is the sad saga of Flossie Powell, slaving away over a very  
local letter. Roommate, DeLauna Keith, demanded some mail and 
Flossie proceeded to carry out the order to the letter.  
Girls who hear the latest are undoubtedly the pizza addicts, Sue  
Woodard ond Anna Jane Camp, who have a difficult time getting to  
sleep without their favorite supper snack of the sizzling pastry (ex- 
cluded by New Deal.) / # „  
The Kappa Theta pie fling of recent program, "I ve got a Secret,  
seemed gauged to discourage participation of KT panels and encour-
age the wearing of raincoats or some missile barriers on front rows.  
Take a beautiful pie, add a skeptical panel member with accu- 
rate aim, a shaky pieman and they spell free-for-all pie in the eye (or 
in some other strategically unfortunate spot if you're an unlucky  duck- 
er ) Emcee for the evening was Don Nelson; time keeper, Carlos Swan- 
son; contestants, Elder Howe, Ted Wick and Phil Freitas. Panel mem- 
bers were Floyd Herberts, Judy Frederick, Sally Saturley and Sam Arm- 
strong. Singing the commercials was the quartet of Ted Wick, Jim 
Wilmot, Jay Cline and Jerry Patton.  
Enthusiastic Nancy McPhail bubbled in praise of a recent TOT  
banquet: "We had a delicious menu at the banquet." Squelcher Alice  
Mae West replied:  
"Oh, did you eat your menus?"  
Which is almost competition for a typical Dave Copsey statement  
in regard to some historical dragons:  
"Drag-ons? They must have smoked a lot."  
In the North Hall basement a room has been designated for a  
prayer room. An almost wall-to-wall shag rug of dark green sets the 
scheme for drapes and recliner in a fabric of pale green and pearl. 
There are chairs, a bookcase and a cupboard for vases and candle- 
sticks. Here one  can go for undisturbed private devotions and a quiet  
time alone.  

Holiday Scenes Themed  
The Teachers of Tomorrow Ban- 
quet given this year on the theme  
of St. Patrick's Day was held at 
7:30 p.m. in  the college cafeteria.  
Wayne Smith, the master of cere- 
monies, gave a few introductory 
remarks which were followed by  
the welcome given by President  
Delano Gilliam.  
The program consisted of a va- 
riety of numbers. Fuss On a Bus, a  
reading presented by Helen Tynar,  
followed by Mvrna Wadsworth  
who sang A Little Bit of Heaven,  
and An Underhand Pass, a reading  
by Betty Chase. George Fisher, a  
guest from Nebraska University,  
sang When Irish Eyes are Smiling.  
Guest speaker Elder W. A. Howe  
told the banqueting teachers of  
tomorrow that no one goes into the  
teaching field for money but rather  
to fulfill an ideal. "We are looking  
forward to having each one of you  
in the teaching profession or at  
least in some part of it," he stated.  
The presentation of club pins to  
new members was done by G. C.  
Williamson and Mrs. Autumn Mil- 
ler. "To do something for the world  
is to do something for the children,"  
was a statement made by Mrs. Mil- 
ler just prior to the handing out of  
the pins.  
Following this Verlene Nesmith  
played Without a Song on her  
marimba.  
To close the program there was a  
sixty-minute film A Desk for Billie.  
This was a story of a little girl,  
whose parents were gypsies and  
how she came out of filth and ig- 
norance to become one of the high- 
er educated women in the world  
today.  
The honored guests of the even- 
ing were Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Turner. 
Dinner music was played by Lil- 
burn Underhill on the organ.

By Bob Scott  
Pre-med, prc-dental, and nursing  
students enjoyed a very successful 
banquet the evening of March 3 
in the Georgian Room of the Hotel 
Cornhusker.  
Upon arrival everyone w a s  
served punch until time to be  
seated. When those present looked 
for their proper place at the tables,  
they were guided by place card  
programs in the form of a "very,  
very revised edition" of Gray's  
Anatomy. The nut cups were small  
doctor's bags.  
Seated at the speakers' table were  
Kenny Dedeker, president of Mu 
Epsilon Delta; Melvin Campbell, 
master of ceremonies; Dr. D. K.  
Brown, sponsor of Mu Epsilon Del-
ta; Dr. Chester Norman, campus 
M.D. and their wives.  
A delicious dinner was made  
even more enjoyable with dinner  
music by the "Ivy Quintet." This  
instrumental group is composed of  
Cecil Christensen, trumpet; Van 
Knauss, piano; Ted Wick,  bass;  
Jim Wilmot, guitar; and Larry  
Schmidt, drums.  
As everyone was finishing des- 
sert, Kenny welcomed all to the 
banquet and introduced the M.C.  
for the program, Mr. Melvin Camp- 
bell.  
A ladies' trio, Dixie Marcotte,  
Wretha Griffin and Jeannie Rogers,  
sang "Tip-toe Through the Tulips"  
to open the evening's entertain- 
ment. Sally Saturley paid a trip to 
Richard Thompson as patient to 
dentist, ft is not hard to understand.  

Ncrmon Wogness, Leah Spickard,  
Ncrmajean Jamss and Ernest  Lloyd  
share one of the banquet tables at the 
Teachers of Tomorrow banquet described

"Why Dentists Go Goofy." Jim 
Dieringer of Hastings played a  
violin, solo, "Ah, Sweet Mystery of  
Life." Bob Kelly helped us brusl'  
up on our history research with  
"The Inside Story" about Cleopa- 
tra. Gary Anderson sang "Old  
Shop," a song about a faithful dog.  
Then as a special treat the group  
was allowed to watch Dr. Can U. 
Curem and Dr. I. Haftee Cutt per- 
form an operation on Ernest Zieg- 
enbalg. It was all in fun and Art 
Dick and "Shorty" Reeder did a 
swell job.  
Chuck Holman played "In the  
Still of the Night" on his mellow  
cornet to cap the evening's music.  
The film, "Dr. Jim," was shown  
to the group as a reminder that a 
doctor's life is made up of work and  
service for which his best reward 
is the love and gratitude of his pa- 
tients.

Whether we like it or not we have come to the month of March.  
Along with this  month come also the beginning days of spring. Spring  
produces many changes in people and their attitudes; it gives us new 
hope and determination to make everything we do worth while. How 
fortunate we were to be able to begin this season with Elder Asher  
and the Week of Prayer. If we remember what he has brought to us 
and keep it in our minds it will give us that spring feeling all year long.  
D.C.  
BOUQUETS TO:

Prayer and for the personal help which he gave to a number of our

tion for the splendid job which our judges did in selecting a winner for  
each section.

Elder Asher Conducts  
UCA Week of Prayer  
The Academy spring week of  
prayer was held during the first  
week of March. Elder G. W. Asher, 
pastor of the Omaha church, was 
guest speaker.  
Elder Asher told the students  
that God has set high standards for 
His people and it takes hard work- 
to live up to them. He emphasized  
the fact that "it is not easy for any  
person to live a victorious life, but  
through diligent effort and contin-
uous surrender to Christ it is pos- 
sible for all.

CLOCK TOWER, MARCH 15, 1957  
Overheard- 
South  
by Dick Milholm  
The other day as Clyde Peters entered his humble abode he could  
tell at a moment's glance that the picture of his sweetheart was mis-
sing from the position it was in the habit of occupying. Looking around  
the room in the customary manner—under the bed, in the closet, 
etc.—Clyde finally found the portrait in a tennis racket frame. Pre- 
suming that the person who did this misdeed to him was the usual  
prankster, he called to Alan Seltman (next door neighbor) "What's  
the deal, Seltman, framing my girl's picture?" In a slow drawl Seit- 
man answered, "Well, I was just thinking that it was becoming quite  
the racket." He said that, I didn't!  
Some fiendish jester had a holiday with Bob Kelley and Jerry Nelson  
this past week. A can of juice was "accidentally" placed in the path  
of Jerry, and he being one who is always after something for nothing  
(who isn't) picked it up and examined it suspiciously. Not wanting tc  
be the subject of a joke he took the can of juice to Bob and they both  
looked it over. The cover was perfect and when they shook the can it  
scunded as a good jug of juice should. Finally deciding that Jerry 
had hit the jack-pot, they prepared to divide the contents. Upon open- 
ing the can they found to their amazement not juice, but plain water.  
The prankster had punched two minute holes in the side of the can,  
drank the juice, filled the can with water and soldered the holes. Some  
people will do anything to get the last laugh.  
They say the criminal always returns to the scene of his crime and  
Bob and Jerry are beginning to believe it. This time the culprit left  
as his calling card a hydrogen sulfide generator. And as hydrogen sul- 
fide when released in the air smells just like rotten eggs, you can ima- 
gine their dismay. Last seen those poor fellows were airing their room. 
You have one consolation, men, the third time is the charm.  
When Gerald McMillen came calling on his brother, he found  
Gilbert waiting with open arms. The only thing was that the open  
arms were for the food that Gerald held as he came from home.

CLOCK TOWER, MARCH 15, 1957  Afte* QicMaiiou BREWER WINS FIRST IN ORATIONS  
The other evening, {he annual question arose among a group of  
students, "Why don't the Union College students have more to say 
about the rules and the running of student affairs?"  
Upon thinkir.q over the question, there arose in my mind the  
question, "Are the majority of Union College students capable of 
self-government to a very large extent?" True many of the new and  
progressive ideas the students have would quite possibly help to 
improve some things, but just what percent of the total number of  
ideas would the truly good and practical ones represent?  
A very large number of Union's students are graduates of the  
academies within our three unions. At the age when students first  
reach the  secondary level, no doubt few individuals are capable of  
much self-government. For this reason, it seems  that most academies  
are justifiably run almost completely by the faculty, with student  
paiticipation in administrative affairs either lacking or a mere  
formality with little real power. Hence, after the four years of second- 
ary school the student is little farther ahead in the responsibility of  
personal thinking that when he first entered academy.  
Then he comes to college and similarly must be led along. But here  
too, the tendency is not to promote personal responsibility, but with  
students from freshman up to seniors, to set up rules under which  
the student must abide. At the end of the four-year stay in college, 
the individual is out of school and is suddenly faced, not only with  
new surroundings career-wise,  but also with the personal responsibility  
of thinking for himself. Here, decisions are different. Not just deci- 
sions in a sheltered group as it was at school, but those of being one  
of a small minority group and living up to certain positive standards.  
Would it not be better, as has been advocated by other college  
papers of the denomination, to somewhere in the academy start to 
ease into somewhat more responsibility and let this responsibility  
progress proportionally as the person progresses in school, so that 
by the time of college graduation, he will be a well-rounded indi- 
vidual, not only in educational knowledge, but also knowledge and 
experience along the lines of personal behavior?  
Possibly if these ideas would be thought over and perhaps brought  
into practice, in the future a responsible student type of  partial  
self-government could be experienced. C.S.

but in the final minutes were able 
to move into the lead and win by 
a score of 43-38 giving them a per- 
fect season's record with no losses.  
Tournament for Trophies  
A double elimination tournament  
will soon be underway in both the  
A and B leagues. The tournament 
winners will be the trophy recipi- 
ents this year.

Students Conduct Branch Sabbath Schools  
Sabbath school superintendents  
this year are Melvin Campbell at  
Douglas and George Sharpe at  
Bennett. They are working under 
the supervision of Elder P. C.  
fames and Mr. R. E. Firth, both of  
the Union College faculty.  
Line Shows Adventists  
in Monument Valley Film  
The film, "Monument Valley Ad- 
venture," was presented by Francis 
Line on Saturday night, March 9, 
in the college auditorium. Mr. and  
Mrs. Line spent two years in Mon- 
ument Valley, filming this section  
of the Southwest.  
Although Monument Valley ap- 
pears to be mainly desert land, it  
offers many scenic attractions such  
as the totem poles, arches of var-
ious heights and shapes, and the?  
rock formations.  
No medical care was available to  
the Navajos until seven years ago  
when land was donated to the Sev- 
enth-day Adventists for a clinic.  
Marvin and Gwen Walters now  
operate this clinic, as well as an- 
swering emergency calls to the ho- 
gans of the Indians and sometimes  
making several weekly trips to the 
nearest hospital for medical care.

Among the activities sponsored  
by the MV Society of the College  
View church are two branch Sab-
bath schools that are conducted 
for isolated members of the church 
as well as a soul-winning endeavor.  
The branch Sabbath schools play  
an important part of the Sabbath  
activities for many students at  
Union College.  
In assuming the responsibilities  
connected with a branch Sabbath 
school students are receiving an  
education that can be found only  
at a Christian school. The experi-
ences gained through these activi- 
ties would be valuable to anyone  
as a worker in the cause of God.  
Presently, branch Sabbath  
schools are being conducted near  
Douglas and Bennett. Every Sab- 
bath afternoo n students from  
Union College join with the Sab- 
bath school members to share the  
blessings in studying God's word.  
The meetings follow much the  
same pattern as the meetings in the 
church. A brief song service is con- 
ducted and following the opening  
prayer the mission story is pre-
sented and then the Sabbath school  
lesson is studied quite thoroughly.  
After the closing song and prayer  
a brief devotional talk is given.  
Approximately fifteen to twenty  
students take part in the branch  
Sabbah schools each week. Oc- 
casionally they distribute literature 
and form singing bands, hoping  
that they will find someone that 
would like to join their group in 
the study of the Bible.

PIONEER STORIES RETOLD, 
Compiled and Edited by II. M.  
Tippett.  
The sacrifices and resourceful- 
ness of the men and women who  
founded the remnant church and 
later organized it into a great evan- 
gelistic enterprise should be a part 
of every believer's information,  
young or old. No one who loves the 
advance of God's work can read  
these stories, some details of which  
are not too commonly known, with-
out recognizing providence at work- 
in a large way as organization was 
effected and institutions founded. 
Faith, fortitude, humility, and res-
olute following of heaven's leader-
ship characterized the men and  
women whose biographies are in- 
terestingly recounted. This selec- 
tion of stories will inspire many a  
youth in the church to new exploits  
for the kingdom of God. A member

We regret to announce the death  
of Dr. W. D. Kinney of Village  
Creek, Iowa, on February 25, 1957.  
He is survived by his wife, one sis- 
ter, nieces and nephews and many  
friends. Dr. Kinney was a true vet- 
eran in the Lord's army, a tower of  
strength to those about him.  
Dr. Kinney attended Union Col- 
lege during the first three years of 
the school's existence. Here he re-
ceived an inspiration to become a  
medical doctor. He attended the 
University of Illinois where he re- 
ceived his medical degree.  
He visited our campus on several  
occasions and always took pleasure 
and pride in the progress made and  
in the preparation of young men  
and women for service to mankind.  
As of Hezekiah of old, it can be  
said of Dr. Kinney, ". . . in everv  
work that he began he did it with 
all his heart and prospered." said 
President Hartman who gave the  
funeral address.

Dear Editor:  
Recently this little dittv appeared  
on the bulletin board of the Busi- 
ness Administration department:  
Roses are red and violets are  
blue,  
But this hall's no hang-out for  
your girl and you.  
Moon-eyes and debits don't mix  
very well;  
This is a learner's path—not a  
lover's dell.  
Students and friends we welcome  
here.  
But for courtin' your gal. please  
go elsewhere.  
—The management.  
This little bit of  foolishness at- 
tracted a considerable number ot  
interested and amused readers.  
From the standpoint of poetic com-
position, it may be justly criticized.  
Yet it points to what is becoming  
a growing problem on our campus.  
You can be sure this little sign was 
intended for what educational val- 
ue it might have.  
Have you ever watched a couple  
with that moon-struck look ex- 
changing familiarities in public?  
Disgusting, isn't it? That is what  
you look like when you arc doing  
it. Familiarities between couples  
in public is just simnlv bad man- 
ners, and is considered so any- 
where, whether it be in the halls,  
the campus, at a Saturday night  
nro<zram, downtown, or in vour  
^ome in the presence of others. 
The young man who will do it  
doesn't have much respect for the 
young lady he is supposed to  be so  
fond of. Might I suggest that if yon 
are concerned about the respect of  
that special friend and your manv  
other friends that you take some  
pains with developing acceptable  
pub'ic social behavior?
