Special Nurses' Edition a Ut C V Week of Prayer October 8-15 VOLUME XXVIII UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, OCTOBER 7, 1954 NUMBER 2 Devotional Weele Commences Friday with Elder T.H.J emison President Hartman said today that Elder T. H. Jemison, UC's fall week of prayer speaker, will arrive Thursday, October 7. Elder Jemi- son, whose theme for the week is "An Adequate Message," is the as- sociate secretary of the Ellen G. White Publications. He received an M.A. in religion at the SDA Theo- logical Seminary. His position as chairman of the religion department at Washington Missionary College was preceded by a place in the Pacific Union Col- lege Bible department. The Gen- eral Conference asked Jemison to write or compile a textbook on the gift of prophecy which will prob- ably be ready for use in SDA col- leges next fall. Tomorrow afternoon a staff group and the speaker will meet to Variety Program Features Newcomers The program season began last Saturday night with a new-student talent exhibit in the college audi- torium. Mr. Leno, band instructor, opened the program by introducing the MC for the evening, Jerry Wiley, a senior from Texas. Jerry then proceeded to announce the various numbers on the program. Barry Siebenlist sang a bass solo, "Big Bass Viol." followed by a piano solo by Joseph Ryan and a girl's trio consisting of Donna Chambers, Myrna Clevenger, and Beverly Thompson. Lou Ann Kiley from Minnesota then played a marimba solo. A comical reading was given by Helen Tynar, and a flute duet by Bonnie Bortel and Colleen Julius. Phyllis Hein, a so- prano," sang "Let All my Life be Music." Eleanor Brend, a student from Massachusetts, played a Ryhiner Team Is First Lyceum Peter and Mercia Ryhiner, big game hunters who have never car- ried a gun on any of their safaris, will come to the Union College auditorium Saturday night at 8:15 to present their exciting all-color motion picture, "Gondar." "Gondar" is an action-packed film that takes its viewers deep into the heart ot Assam in the north- east corner of India to track down the massive beasts of the jungle, the elephant and the one-horned Indian rhinoceros. There are many scenes of captur- ing wild elephants in a jungle cor- ral, weeding out the desirable ones and putting these through an inten- sive course of training to serve as useful beasts of burden. COMING EVENTS The concluding feature of the Soturday night talent program was "Alexander," sung by a Missouri quartet of Weldon Fletcher, Jack Hartley, Bob Scott, and Jim Blackburn. The boys are all former students of Sunnydale Academy, Centralia, Missouri. piano solo called "Galloping Horses" after which three girls from Iowa: Erma Crofoot, Sally Crozier, and Sandra Nelson, sang "Little Ike." Following these were several instrumental: Jim Dietel, piano; Harold Reeder, baritone; Bob Rom- ans and Bob Fillingham, a trumpet duet; and a violin solo by Jonathan Nail. Art Dick, Byron Moe, George Newmyer and Harold Reeder, known as the Statesmen Quartet, then sang "Shortnin' Bread" after which Eddie Field from Colorado gave a reading, and Jim Gilbert and Carl Olsen played a trombone duet. The program was closed with another quartet by four boys form- erly of Sunnydale Academy: Jim Blackburn, Weldon Fletcher, Bob Scott, and Jack Hartley, singing "Alexander."

There will be a 6:40 meeting each eve- ning; the morning meetings will be in the church at 9:45. Elder Jemison commented on his week of prayer theme that he will emphasize practical, workable Christian experience and growth. President Hartman said, "My hope and prayer is that this week will set the pattern and the mold for the spiritual phase of our educational program at Union College. This is one reason why the week of prayer should come early in the school year. In SDA schools the spiritual program is the very foundation of all other programs. If we fail here —we have failed in all else—there would be no need for our colleges." The Statesmen quartet prepares with Elder ing tour of small Nebraska towns. George Art Dick solicited musically. More than half the student body of Union College assembled with faculty members and Nebraska con- ference officials for the annual In- gathering field day, Tuesday, Sep- tember 28. Thirty-five bands went out with sixty-seven cars to farms and towns in southeast Nebraska. Nearly $2700 was totaled from cash solicitations, labor donations, and pledges. The project was sponsored by Elder A. V. Wallenkampf, head of the religion department. Territory varied in difficulty, he said, and some bands had more members than others. The following list in- cludes the bands with their leaders, number of cars, and only the cash solicited.

The amount netted from this sale, with Kenny Dietrich and Mr. Cul- ver as auctioneers, was $32.37. Students Elect Officers Eleven students were elected of- ficers in five Student Association groups on the campus in the Thurs- day and Friday chapel periods. The following were elected to of- fices on the staff of the school paper, the CLOCK TOWER: associate editor, Ruth Sutter, a senior from Nebraska, assistant editor, Sally Nugent, a sophomore from Louisi- ana; advertising manager, Bill Weitzel, a sophomore from Colo- rado. Joyce Zummach, a senior from Minnesota, was elected secretary- treasurer of the Student Associa- tion, a group which includes all of the students at Union. The college Sabbath school also gained some new officers. They are: Virginia Durichek, a sophomore from Minnesota, secretary; and Bob McClendon, a senior from Texas, assistant chorister. Joan Norman and Wanda Butch- er were elected as associate and as- sistant editors, respectively, of the Golden Cords, the school yearbook. Joan is a senior from Texas, and Wanda is a junior from Nebraska. The literary editor for the annual is a senior, Texan Jon Owens, and the roster editor is Irene Gilbert, a jun- ior from Minnesota. Norma Jeana Draper was elected to the social committee, the group that plans a part of the school rec- reation and entertainment. She is a sophomore from Nebraska. Committees Receive Additional Members The members of the Nominations and Elections committee chosen last fall were supplemented recent- ly by several new members to com- plete the committee roster. The complete list of officers and mem- bers of this committee as provided for in the Student Association con- stitution are as follows: chairman, Dr. E. M. Cadwallader; secretary, Virginia Randall; members, James Gilbert, Diane Johnson, Wallace Specht, Robert Rentfro, Ronnie Cornelsen, Kathleen Prentice, Charles Sims, Norman Woods, Georgia Strieker, Douglas Hill, Gene Johnson, Billy Robinson, Phil Reiswig, Joyce Zummach, Joyce Tornow, Gene Stafford, and Joyce Sivertson. This committee meets on call as the need arises. The Student Staff Council roster was also filled by recent elections. This group, consisting of four staff members and sixteen students, meets every third Wednesday at 9:35 a.m. in room 210 to discuss mutual student and staff problems and foster a closer relationship be- tween these two groups. Two items on the agenda for the first meeting, October 27, are (1) a student lounge in the new women's dormi- tory and (2) the parking situation at the school. Committee officers and members are: chairman, War- ner Ewing; secretary, Darlene Kirchner; members, Dean M. S. Culver, Miss Hilda Fern Remley, "Anticipation ran high as the twenty-one sophomores gathered at the Boulder church on the night of September 30. This was the night they had eagerly been awaiting, and at last it was here, the high light of the nursing profession- capping," Miss Mazie Herin, School of Nursing director, announced to the CLOCK TOWER. Seniors and juniors in full uni- form, followed by the new class, marched in and took their places, and the invocation was given by Dr. A. L. Moon, medical director of Porter Sanitarium and Hospital. Marian Lincoln played a clarinet solo entitled "Opus 72, Andante con Moto," and Dr. Jerry Smith ac- companied her at the piano. Har- vey C. Hartman, president of Union College, was the guest speaker. The theme of his talk was "An Under- standing Heart." "The Lord's Pray- er" was sung by a trio consisting of Elvenia Prowant, Jannie Belz, and Millicent Odegaard, after which the new class was capped by the juniors. Mrs. Verna Johnson, assistant professor of nursing, acted as Florence Nightingale in the lighting of the small lamps which had been presented to the sopho- mores. "It was a very impressive sight to see the class take their Nightingale pledge in the candle- light," Miss Herin said. "They rev- erently knelt while Dr. Donald Page offered the consecration pray- er. Rising, they sang their consecra- tion song. 'Have Thine Own Way. Lord,' and still humming softly, slowly marched out to receive their congratulations." Immediately following the cere- mony, the faculty and students, ac- companied by their parents and guests, gathered in the gym to par- ticipate in a handshake and recep- tion given by the School of Nurs- ing staff. The capping program is an an- nual affair which initiates the new sophomore class into their begin- ning role in the nursing profession. The white nursing caps are sym- bolic of purity and devotion, their consecration in their chosen career. The Florence Nightingale lamps are lamps of service; the pledges are further announcements of serv- ice for God and humanity.

This sensible say- ing is used primarily by couples, but perhaps an appropriate carry- over can be made to apply this maxim to a condition that exists at Union College. The majority of the UC nursing students' education is gained on campuses in Colorado some 500 miles from the liberal arts col- lege. The result of such a set up is a very good nursing school with excellent facilities, equipment, and personnel for training these con- secrated students who have followed in the footsteps and spirit of Florence Nightingale. Unfortunately, however, the plan is not without its blemishes. Union, the school that never forgets her own, sometimes neglects her students in white in the Rockies. The nurses, on the other hand, sel- dom feel a part of what goes on at Union College and even consider themselves left out sometimes or perhaps not even a part of the UC family. The situation is not ideal. A spirit of unity is lacking. The inter- vening 500 miles do not make relations any more intimate. There needs to be more of a feeling of cooperation, unity, one- ness, and team play in our set up. This can only be established by a clear cut understanding on the part of everyone on all campuses that this is a school where we are all working together for a common cause, preparation for a life of Christ-dedicated service. Who could be bet- ter preparing for such a goal than the students of the Union College School of Nursing? Hats off to Miss Herin, and her co-workers on the Boulder and Porter campuses. The CLOCK TOWER salutes the School of Nurs- ing for its high scholastic standing and Christian ideals in REAL nurs- ing, not merely an institution where young men and women in starched uniforms dispense pills and give shots. This column would also like to crush the common false notion held by many that nurses are a hard and calloused lot. Nowhere can be found a more sympathetic, Christ-devoted, and tender hearted group of young people than the neat, polite, efficient professional corps of young men and women who are graduated from the Union College School of Nursing. These are true nurses in the highest sense of the word! Nuffsed ^ewied from the heads of the Eds Bouquets to. . . All nursing students—those previously capped, those recently capped, and those still planning to be capped.

CLUBLICITY Kappa Theta SEPTEMBER 23 Kappa Theta swimmers, divers, and spectators entered the college pool for an aquatic program Sep- tember 23. Interviewing the per- formers, lifeguard Wanda Butcher emceed. Norma Jean Draper and Boni Pemberton teamed for diving. M ar- lene Harrop and Bev McBee, a Red Cross swimming instructor, syn- chronized with recorded back- ground music. Darlene Kirchner as "Maggie, the comic" was on hand with her inner tube to assist the divers and res- cue anyone who should happen to fall in. While Wanda was interviewing the swimmers, Wendy Owen at- tracted everyone's attention by screaming for help. A lifeguard quickly got her to safety. Later Wendy was seen swimming with no trouble. SEPTEMBER 30 Friends and treasures were themes at the September 30 Kappa Theta gathering. Musical "Friends" was played up by trumpeters Louie Johnson and Don Madison. Kenny Dietrich gave a humorous reading about Axel and his friend Lars who could only succeed in get- ting Axel into trouble. Alberta Greene gave instructions for a treasure hunt in the dormitory. Groups of girls were seen hurrying from the worship room to fifth floor and back to the basement until they found the treasure in the form of candy bars containing the name of their friendship sister for the first semester. Sigma lota Kappa SEPTEMBER 23 Baseball-minded Sigma Iota Kappans saw a film of the 1948 World Series between the Cleve- land Indians and the Boston Braves at the September 23 club date.

We have appointed our prayer band leaders for the first semester. These are Neil Addington, William Aso, Francis Bivins, Jim Blackburn, Melvin Campbell, Ronald Coon, Don Cunningham, Don Dirksen, Doug- las Eddleman, Marvin Frishman, Weldon Fletcher, Jim Gilbert, Charles Gilliam, Kenneth Dedeker, Roy Harris, Harry Hartgrove, Robert Johnson, Elmer Lampson, Ronnie Nelson, Gary Nowlan, Dale Palmer, Harlan Peck, Loren Prange, Leo Rein, Joseph Rhyne, Jack Robison, Bob Scott, Charles Sims, Jay Sloop, William Soper, Wally Specht, Ed Stacey, Marvin Ste- phens, Norman Wagness, Glenn Wheeler, and Ralph Williams. We have also elected our officers for Sigma Iota Kappa. During one of the early club meetings Loren Prange was informing us of the college's policy regard- ing holding hands. "We should not hold hands," stated Loren. Then a wee voice, after a long pause, squeaked, "On the campus." Many of the men brought back several interesting items from their Ingathering work. For example, Hu- bert Watkins and Ronnie Nelson were given two live chickens as a contribution. It seems that someone neglected to tell them that a closed car trunk is not the best place to keep chickens. Somehow, there's not an overabundance of air in a car trunk. A disas- trous result ensued. However, Warner Ewing and Charles Sims fared much better. Warner solicited a lady in a hotel who invited him to stay for dinner. "We're having ox-tail joints," she said. "I know people think they are just horrible, but really they are quite delicious." It prob- ably called forth all of Warner's will power, but he refused the invitation. Charles Sims probably came out a little better though. He was offered a dollar to buy his supper. One of the most interesting aspects of the Ingather- ing field day was the auction sale held that night in the chapel. By means of the auction South hall was able to hold the first fashion show we have had in some time. It seems that Dale Palmer just couldn't resist buying a dress and a pair of high heels. Dale was certainly a very lovely model that night. A letter was received this week from one of the women solicited in a small town. After the ingathering boys had left her home without her contribution, she located some money, but couldn't catch them, so she sent it in. "The youngsters were so courteous," she said, "that I wanted to give something. They said any amount would do." This is the spirit that makes Ingathering campaigns and Union College training by Estelle Krasko Walking to and fro in North hall—looking—listen- ing-laughing. With the opening of a new school term comes the usual adjustments and problwns of getting the room settled, curtains hung, clothes pressed, and getting acquainted with the new room mate. The returning students notice the various changes and improvements. The new draperies, freshly ap- plied paint, and the planter in the lobby-all have added a bit of personality to the dormitory. South 5th is pretty lonesome these days, and so are the rest of us without Kathleen Prentice. Kathy was taken to the hospital with a slight case of polio. We hope her condition remains favorable and that she will soon be back with us again. As per usual, Kathy, no one suffers alone. Hence comes North hall's 20th Century version of "Charge of the Light Brigade." (With due apologies to Tennyson) Shots to the right of them, Shots to the left of them, Shots in back of them, Into the claws of Drs. Norman and Smith. Reluctantly strode the three hundred. Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do or die. . . Then to add to the already cautious situation, the next day was Ingathering. The very word suggests an experience. Darlene Kirchner really topped them all! It seemed as though most of the folk she called on in- vited her in and asked her to have a chair while they got their donation. Ouch! How were they to know? Jennie Moore, from Panama, has in times past so- licited in Spanish. This year for the first time she at- tempted to do it in English. Can you imagine the amusement of her partner, Virginia Simmons, and her prospective donor, when she said, "I'm out in the in- terest of farewell work"? In first aid the tourniquet is used to cut off circula- tion temporarily. In the social world there is something that cuts olf circulation too. What is it, Dorla Roberts? Can it be a watch on the right arm? Our prankster, Barbara Oliver, is on the stir again. She got a bottle of disappearing ink and dumped it unexpectedly all over Ellen Holt's cluster. Ellen was quite disturbed. When she noticed it had suddenly vanished, poor Ellen thought she was ill or, to say the least, going crazy! The girls on north 2nd have some droll experiences inasmuch as the hair dryer is at their end of the hall. Lupo Torres was nearly snatched bald when she ac- cidentally turned it on in reverse. As for the rising bell, we're glad morning comes only once a day. You'll be hearing from us again, so keep watching and don't be surprised. 4 CLOCK TOWER, JANUARY 20, 1955 Acad-o-gram Health, Wealth, and Gamma Globulin 1 2 3 5 10 22 24 STAFF Editor-Marilyn Harper Asst.

The academy had their own handshake this year. After the last person had gone through line, everyone attended a program prepared for them by their Student Association officers. Presi- dent Arlo Krueger introduced Har- old Reeder as master of ceremonies. Mr. and Mrs. McClendon sang "A Little Bit of Heaven" and used as their encore, "With a Song in My Heart." "Serenade" by Victor Her- bert was played by Byron Moe on his trumpet. Mr. Lickey, the new choir director, sang "The Hills of Home." This was followed by Shir- ley Wasemiller's piano solo, "I Love Life." Leila Rausten gave us the humorous musical reading, "I've Got a Pain in my Sawdust." Her encore was "He Met Her in the Meadow." The ex-academy quartet sang "Dry Bones" and brought the program to a close with their en- core, "Old MacDonald." Yvonne Mcllwain, Marvel Jen- sen, June Robinson, and Carolyn Kuehl served punch and individual cakes decorated with the academy's colors, blue with white trimming that spelled out "Welcome." IN SYMPATHY We wish to extend our sympathy to the Johnsons who were called to Britton, South Dakota for the fun- eral of Mr. Johnson's 99-year-old father. White — (tapped... Old friend, I miss you. I miss our friendly visits, when I sat at your feet and listened while you taught me of our heavenly Father. When my heart was heavy with worldly cares and discouragement pressed down upon me, you told me in a thunderous roar that made man seem frail and powerless by comparison of a Greater Power above who can cleanse our quaking human hearts of their burdens if we will but blend our lives with His. When I was weary and tired, you drifted gently about my feet, car- essing each tiny grain of sand and leaving behind your own specially- borne sea treasures for my pleasure and wonderment. Your softly whis- pered words of a greater, a hea- venly rest comforted me. And when, at evening, the flam- ing sun kissed your silvery waves goodnight and set them to blushing in shades of red and gold, you told me of a heavenly city with hues far lovelier than these and set me to longing for that land beyond the sunset where Jesus and His re- deemed ones will dwell in the per- petual beauty of holiness.

Students and staff members await their turns ot the Tuberculosis X-ray unit across the street from the campus. The health program made itself felt in more ways than one and in several places last week. In addition to the hundreds of immunization shots of "Immune Globulin" dis- pensed to all the ladies of North hall and the men of South hall who desired them, the Union College family had its chest X-rayed. Kathleen Prentice fell before the onslaught of the monster, polio, on Pollen Victims- Therapy is Here If you have hay fever, you have about 19,999,999 fellow sufferers, says Lillian Louella Ayers, writing in the September issue of Life & Health. With an ever-increasing army of sneezers and wheezers, Miss Ayers says, it would be necessary to "strip the earth of all vegetation" if the techniques of eliminating the cause of the discomfort were followed. Those who figure on escaping the pesty microscopic enemy by change of scenery are probably only kid- ding themselves: "Pollens are car- ried by the wind for hundreds of miles." Even in the Rocky Moun- tain area, free from hay fever until the 1930s, the writer warns, "symp- toms may start as early as January and last intermittently until the first freeze," which in recent years has tended to press later into the fall months. But don't give up the ship! Miss Ayers has some comforting reas- surance: Pollen therapy, she says, most common avenue of relief sought today, is "simple, affectual, economical, and safe." Hay fever victims can take fresh courage from Miss Ayers' remarks on those who have tried pollen therapy. "Most of the victims," she says, "after being treated success- fully for three successive seasons, did not have any more symptoms." They may even be one step ahead of their nonallergic relatives and friends! "Many," she says, "report that they never have colds after re- ceiving pollen therapy for three successive seasons."

She was immediately taken to the Lin- coln General Hospital as soon as her illness was diagnosed. Dr. Russell T. Smith, M.D., the college physician, reports that Kathy's temperature returned to normal shortly after she was placed in isolation at the hospital. When this edition went to press, Dr. Smith informed the CLOCK TOWER that no paralysis had set in and that Kathy was in "good" condition and doing well. On Monday, the morning after the night before (before Kathy came down with polio), school offi- cials announced that gamma globu- lin shots would be given to all wo- men in the dormitory and all others who had come in contact with Kathy recently. The shots were given at the health clinic from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. Wanda Butcher acted as traffic- director and steered the trembling victims to the proper places. The first of the proper places was the scales where Joan Bitzer reported the weight to Evelyn Saulsbury who recorded it on a "3 x 5" white slip of paper under the patient's name along with the dosage in cubic centimeters. The amount of serum given was in proportion to the weight of the individual with a maximum set at 30 cc's. At the next station as one sat down and opened his mouth, La- Dean Frederickson or Millie Hall popped in a thermometer and in- formed the reluctant volunteers that they should keep their mouths closed for five minutes. When the thermometer had been thoroughly incubated and the read- ing had been recorded on the little "3 x 5" that fidgity fingers had curled, rolled, folded, rumpled, or crushed by now, Mrs. A. Hilde be- gan a short interrogation. When her record of such things as medical history, age, and name was com- plete, all that remained was a peri- od of waiting and the transforma- tion to pin cushion at the hands of Drs. Smith or Norman assisted by Mrs. Russell T. Smith, Mrs. E. E. Zellmer, Betty Curtis, and Tommy Ellis. Others who assisted in the wholesale immunization plan were Mrs. R. Firth, Janice Morgan, and Frances Jewell. All the men of the college were given opportunity to get gamma globulin shots Wednesday night. The serum was provided free of charge by the National Foundation for the Prevention of Poliomyelitis. Many students saw and felt the first tangible evidence of their con- tributions to the March of Dimes. The State of Nebraska chest X-ray mobile unit was in College View last Thursday, Friday, and Monday to complete the physical examinations of UC students. Dr. R. T. Smith, college health director, said that the primary rea- son for the visit of the mobile X-ray unit was to detect tubercu- losis in its early stages. Many pe- culiar ailments other than TB are revealed by the X-ray unit. Among them are swallowed safety pins, extra ribs, etc. The Davenport Barber Shop "It Pays to Look Well" 4744 Prescott MUST SHAVE YOU CLOSE- m YOUR MONEY BACK!

Rice Pharmacy 4 CLOCK TOWER, OCTOBER 7, 1954 JZunyan -Note* Melon Killiri on Saturday Night INTRAMURALS There are so many and varied things to report on the happenings around the Music hall that to in- clude them all would take, not a column, but an entire issue. The increased enrollment has re- sulted in a proportionate increase in the music department. TH Gold- en Cords Chorale is larger tms year than ever before. The enthu- siasm and spirit of this group was shown by the number "Let Thy Holy Presence," given in their first performance, by memory, after only two rehearsals. Quartets, trios, and sextets, are coming into evidence from all quar- ters. This is a healthy sign of per- sonal initiative. Mr. Harold Lickev has been appointed as sponsor of these groups. Nor has the activity been con- fined to the students. Miss Betty Ann Christensen, in addition to ber theory classes, has taken on the responsibility of teaching the ad- vanced piano students. Mrs. Mary McClendon, a new member of our music staff, has renewed the prac- tice of teaching elementarv music fundamentals to the grade school students as a part of the regular school curriculum. The music de- partment of 1959 is really going to be sensational, if this is any indi- cation. Mr. Harold Lickey, formerly a member of the Faith for Today quartet, has organized the vesper choir. This will be a regular feature of our Friday evening vespers. Mr. Lickey has charge of the Academy choir in addition to teaching voice. Gladys Davis, a junior music ma- jor from Iowa, is kept more than busy with organ instruction in ad- dition to her regular class load. Mr. H. Lloyd Leno completed his Master of Music Education degree this summer while attending Co- lumbia University (Teachers Col- lege at New York). The degree will be conferred early in December. Congratulations! The head of our music depart- ment, ]. Wesley Rhodes, studied conducting and choral technique at Columbia University in New York this summer. He was associated with Mr. Robert Weedy, one of the leading Metropolitan baritones and a noted concert singer. This is just a small fraction of the things that have happened and are happening to make the music department a better servant to the student body and the community. DON RUNYAN Having Cor Trouble?

Students Express The Roster of Late "An Adequate Message," — its practical, workable Christian ex- perience and growth is being pre- sented to students this week by Elder T. H. Jemison. Several stu- dents have voiced their opinions of the coming week of special spiritual emphasis. Clifton Reeves states that he looks upon this week as one to re- new our consecration and to take us one step closer to the kingdom. Edward Stacey expects this to be a stepping stone in his experience. He recalls the various times he benefited from previous weeks of prayer. Wanda Butcher said that she was looking forward to a well-planned, well-organized week in which all of us would not only be drawn closer to Christ, but also remain that way. Ellen Holt thinks that it is very easy to get into a rut as far as our Christian experience is concerned. With so much going on we forget God and religion. Ellen thinks a week of prayer is necessary. Lee Thompson seemed to voice the opinion of many students when she mentioned that she felt the need of something like a week of prayer in her own life. Richard Culbertson shares the same sentiment as others when he says, "The week of prayer is the most inspiring week at Union Col- lege. I am looking forward to it."

Just 3 Doors West of the Post Office READY TO SERVE YOU Pressing While You Wait Open Sundays -PRICES RIGHT- EFFICIENT The greatest interest in flag foot- ball at Union College for many years is manifested this season by the increased number of partic- ipants. Ten team rosters have been turned in at the physical education department office. This means that over ninety boys are taking part in this ran intramural activity. Many of the teams have com- pleted their rosters and chosen names for the season's football bat- tles. Mr. Robert M. Reynolds, phy- sical education director, reports that the game schedule has been partially made up and will be com- pleted for the whole season shortly. The team rosters for flag football arc as follows: Team 1—The Goofers Don Cunningham Bill Edwards Harlen Peck Bob Scott Jack Hartley Jon Rosenthal Alan Seltman Leo Rein Team 2 Steve Berschied Harold Beierle Ken Dietrich Howard Utsey Bob Nash Joe Rhync Dick Neil Billy Reeves Erling Schroeder Team 3 Ronald Nelson Robert Johnson Clyde Kinder Adrian Zytkoskee Doug Hill Howard Nies Marvin Stephens Walter Edwards Kenny Mayes Team 4—-Koshers Lloyd Bonjour Norman Woods Glenn Wheeler Ronald Cornelsen lerry Wiley Jim Blackburn Ralph Watts Don Vixie Tom Hicks Team 5—The Flying Horsemen Harry Hartgrove Elmer Thompson David Lea Clyde Higby Richard Culbertson Bob Payne Sidney Jackson Bob Potter Ronnie Coon Dale Allen Richard Moyer Team 6—The Nine Knights Stafford Morisset Jack Robison Sonny Wurl Wally Speclit Carrol Knauss Tony Latessa Bill Simpson Neil Addington Team 7—Philadelphians Merlin Reeder Harold Reeder George Newmyer Walter Newmyer Arlo Krueger Calvin Krueger Art Dick Don Dick Vern Thompson Rodger Thompson Team 8—Hawkeyes Tom Hinde Jon Sornson Arlan Caviness Byron Moe Robert Wreed Charles Chambers Doug Ferguson Lowell Britain Carlos S*vanson Team 9—UC Cubs Philip Williamson Theron Morley Larry Duffield Larry Winters Wesley Welch James Syfert Rodger Thompson Carlyle Welch John McArthur Team 10—The Liberaces Bob Renlfro Melvin Campbell David Priest Ed Owens Kenny Dedekf" Allen Miller Carl Bauer Dick Milks Bob Kinder Koshers—6, Philadelphians—0 With a charging line, saving the game, and a sharp Watts-to-Woods pass to win the game, the Koshers bumped the Philadelphians, Sun- day, September 26, 6 to 0 to win the season's opener. The first half went scoreless with both teams charging hard on de- fense and running fast on offense. Seemingly, both were looking for the soft spots and also trying var- ious tactics. Then early in the fourth quarter, with the Philadel- phians' pass defense down, Watts rifled a pass to Norm Woods in the end zone for the first and only tally of the game. The try for the extra point failed, and the score stayed 6 to 0. In the waning minutes of the final quarter the Philadelphians marched down the field on a return punt to terrorize their opponents. With seconds to go and a penalty in favor of the Phillies, the ball set on the Kosher's one yard line. Then the Koshers set their defense, and, with time for one play, turned back the Philadelphians, leaving the score 0 to 0. Liberaces—48, Academy—0 A heavily outweighed Academy team was handed a loss by the "heightv" Liberace team, Sunday, October 3. In a duel for the air, the Liberaces smothered the voting UC Cubs, 48-0. With Owens and Rentfro passing for the victors, a steady scoring at- tack was maintained throughout the entire game. A marathon of TD's were counted up by the Lib- erace teammates: Milks, Miller, Priest, Owens, and Dedeker. Albert's Jewelry J. B.
