Cross, Edwards, and Strahle Depute Students at Colporteur Institute The annual Colporteur Institute held at Union College February 26 to March 4 was climaxed yesterday in chapel with the film "How to An- swer Objections." The three union publishing department secretaries from the Central, Northern, and Southwestern Unions directed the week in the following capacities: instructor, Elder C. G. Cross; chair- man, Elder C. A. Edwards; and co- chairman, Elder J. J. Strahle. Each day there were instructional sessions held after each chapel pe- riod, and special worship periods for those who desired to gain more knowledge of good salesmanship. The Colporteur club sponsored the Thursday and Friday chapels, February 25 and 26, with a facsimile of the Faith for Today telecast. The script, written by Lydia Schander, Naomi Henkelmann, and Loicen Gabbert dealt with the experience and success of a young colporteur.

Members of the cast were Jerry McGill, Eula May Lind- quist, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Stev- ens, Naomi Henkelmann, Curtiss Dale, Lydia, Terry, and Garry Green; Ivan Knopp. Leslie Bietz, Leland Fisher, and Lester Leno. NU Dean Calls for Greatness As He Emphasizes Lateness An even 100)seniors were presented as potential 1954 graduates of Union, College Wednesday morning by Marie Anderson, registrar, to President Harvey C. Hartman. The recognition program occurred at joint chapel. Dr. George W. Rosenlof, Dean of Admissions at the University of Nebraska,, addressed the staff and student froun on the topic, "A Time for Greatness." He presented these points: (1) this is a time for sac- rificial spending of all capabilities, (2) a time for concern for fellow man, (3) a time for courage of con- victions, and (4) a time for ac- ceptance of God and His Son, Je- sus Christ.

Hartman, Registrar Marie Anderson, Treasurer Franklin Dupper, Sponsor Monte S. Culver, Parliamentarian Ann Hazelton, Secretary Joan Peters, and Pastor Jerry Coyle discuss Senior Recognition Day program. SWJC Seniors See UC Luther Tally, president of the senior class of Southwestern Junior College, said, "We certainly re- ceived a warm welcome when we arrived at Union College for a visit, and we want you to know that, al- though we had some preconceived ideas about Union, we now have reversed ourselves and are com- pletely sold on Union College. Most of us plan to be back next year for school." Thirty seniors, sponsors, and oth- ers from Southwestern Junior Col- lege were welcomed to the Union College campus Wednesday eve- ning, February 24. Thursday, the Southwestern visit- ors attended classes and toured the campus. That evening they partici- pated in dormitory club activities, watched a basketball game between Nebraska and Latexoma, and at- tended a welcome program given for them in the Music hall. Friday, the seniors attended more classes and met and discussed their plans with various faculty members. Friday afternoon was spent in a sight-seeing tour of Lincoln. Regular Sabbath services were held Friday evening and Sabbath morning with a special Southwest- erner sunshine band Sabbath after- noon. The program for Saturday eve- ning was the annual Amateur Hour and, following that, a special recep- tion was held in the Music hall for the visitors.

Lieutenant Rhoads Receives First Merit Medal of MCC's The first MCC Aaron E. Oswald medal of merit ever to be given was a w a r d e d to Lieutenant Gayle Rhoads by Captain C. C. Blackburn last Saturday night, February 27. Captain Blackburn is commander of the Medical Cadet Corps at Southwestern Junior College, Keene, Texas, where Lieutenant Rhoads was an outstanding member of the corps before coming to Union College. The presentation of the medal was prefaced with the read- ing of the general orders from the MCC National Field Headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska, which author- izes the medal. The official citation from the office of Major W. A. Howe, Fort Worth, Texas, was read and the medal pinned on its winner. The general orders and the cita- tion stated that the medal was pre- sented in recognition of outstand- ing service, devotion to duty, lead- ership, and achievement.

School starts September 16. (That was subtle, wasn't it?) The evening daily Lincoln Journal is just as caoable of creat- ing as many boo boos (mistakes in journalism) as we are. The banner headline in their last Monday night's edition was, "Five Congressmen Shot in House." As Paul Rees would say, "The house must be just below the fracas." There is a special feature in this issue which, of course, you have noticed already—we hope. We wrote the two-bank headlines to rime—anything to get out of the rut of the same old thing—which reminds us, the other night Mr. Ralph Cleveland, campus policeman, on his regular rounds, stopped in the CT office to talk to us. He said, "How's everything." We said, "In the same old rut." He said. "The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth." That awaken- ed us! If you have ever reached the place where you felt »'ou could not stay awake a minute longer, even though it be in chapel, this advice is for you. Don't stand books end to end from your lap to your chin to support your head while you are dozing. The books mav collaose suddenly, and you will awaken to find all the men on the platform looking directly at you and laughing. A word to the wise . . . A We've nearly broken our arms patting ourselves on the back. Cecil Coffey, while here for a press conference workshop, gave the CLOCK TOWER some nice compliments. He said the CT ranked very high among our SDA papers in format, style, editing, etc. We'll soon find exactly how high, for the Adventist Collegiate Press Association plans to judge the papers from all our colleges this year. "And furthermore, don't any of you come into this room again to- night!" Poor Mr. Brown in Room 220 was upset again. He was a serious cardiac and was to have his pulse checked every two hours, but how could I even get inside his door with him in that kind of a mood? it was my first night charge duty on medical floor and though a cou- ple of hours had passed, I was exhausted. As I sat down in the nurses' station to start my charting, a seemingly forever, haunting phrase began to pound at my brain. "Why, oh why did I ever take nurs- ing? Just to push pills and carry bedpans? No. that was hardly the answer. Could it h:.ve bsen the pay I would reccive when I be- came an R.N.?" Then I answered myself outloud unexpectedly, "Are you kidding?" The nurse aid on with me looked at me in astonishment. "What are you talking about?" she questioned. "Well," 1 began, "First I get up at six a.m., take a quick shower, find out I don't have a clean uni- form, rush to the laundry, miss breakfast and get on duty a couple of minutes late to find out it's my day off or I'm on th° wrong floor. If it isn't that, I've prepared the wrong class assitrmnenh or maybe pulled a trick like I did last we^k —drink a glass of juice out of th° medical fleer refrigerator. How did I knew it had a potent laxative in it for Room 212?" The nurse aid smiled and looked at me straight in the eve. and stat- ed with a sternness in her voice, 'Seems like you're feeling sorry for yourself." My first reaction was the thought, "What does a nurse aid know about professional nurse's training?" My only comment to her was a deadened, "Maybe so." GAUEL GATHERINGS Kappa Theta Thursday evening, February 25, Kappa Theta was called to order by Vice-president Daina Ramey. After scripture reading and prayer, there was as the program a mas- querade party with Arkansasans, bunny rabbits, clowns, etc. A panel made up of students from Keene was chosen to guess the masquer- ade™ who were Mr. William H. Taylor, Jerry Wiley, Lou Etta Crad- dock, Warren Lovett, Betty Fast, and Carrleen Anderson. Natural Science Club Dust or Destiny, a technicolor film, was presented by the Natural Science club Saturday night, Febru- ary 20, in the chapel. At their meeting February 27 in the biology department two films were shown entitled "This Vital Earth" and "Limestone Caverns." Sigma lota Kappa The men of South hall are hasti- ly preparing for the banquet they are to give the North hall women on Tuesday evening, March 23, in the South hall dining room. Fine Arts Guild The Fine Arts Guild program- med a vesper service on Sabbath evening, February 27, for its mem- bers and the week-end visitors from the Southwest. Bette Jewell Lenz read stories of well-known hymns; Fred Speyer sang parts of the songs with Gladys Davis accompanying on the organ. Mu Epsilon Delta The members of the Pre-med club are putting all their efforts into plans for the annual banquet com- ing March 31. The banquet for all pre-professional and nursing stu- dents will be at the Cornhusker Hotel. Liberal Arts Lewis C. Brand Doris S. Carter Joe H. Engelkemier Naomi H. Henkelmann Lvdii B.

Hudson Loma Saville Betty Sherman Gavle Whitsell She continued, "Have you ever realized what those conversations meant to patients as you gave them their baths? Did you ever realize what your sympathy and kindness meant to relatives of a patient of yours that had expired? What about your patience with Mr. Smith when he vomited in his bed? Or did you feel the comfort you gave that little boy who came in the other day with a crushed hip? When you prayed with your pa- tients tonight, did you detect emo- tion in their voice, a tear in their eye? Yet there was a peace of mind that will help them to feel secure and to sleep tonight with a feeling of God near their side." As the nurse aid was talking to me, I noticed her calloused hands, her unprofessional uniform. She must have been about sixty—no ap- pearance of a scientific, profession- al nurse—just a general "flunky." But as her words sank into my mind. I could see a light of hope and kindness shine from her face. Those calloused hands begin to ap- pear to me as hands of beauty and sympathy. Her twisted gray hair could have been angel down as far as I was concerned. I felt she knew what emotion, love, conflict, sym- pathy, security all meant. I could see why the patients loved and ."drrcd her. No, not a pretty wo- man bv errthlv standards, but a heart of gold she had. Yes, everything the nurse aid said was true. There were great dividends in helping suffering hu- manity—dividends that I was be- ginning to notice would draw manv sou's near to God. Why did I take nursing? Words sometimes cannot express a feeling of satisfaction. All I know is, I would not trade my experiences and training for all the pleasures of the world.

"Off he started with the speed of the wind. The war-whoop and yell immediately arose behind him; and looking back, he saw a large com- pany of young warriors with spears in rapid pursuit. He had run half the distance when his strength be- gan to fail and the blood to gush from his nostrils. At every leap the red stream spurted before him and his limbs were growing rapidly weaker and weaker." Did the Indi- ans catch John Colter and kill him, or did he escape?

One of the most interesting char- acters on the Union College cam- pus is Masachika (Ben) Mori. He was born near Osaka, Japan, a little over twenty-five years ago. When he was only twelve years old, he entered high school where, for six years, he took jujitsu, Japan- ese art of self-defense, as an elec- tive for his physical education re- quirements. Ben studied and trained in this school for eight years, and by that time he had earned the Black Belt. The Black Belt signifies an attain- ment of first degree expert rating. Ben can tell many interesting stor- ies of how his knowledge of jujitsu has saved his life in Formosa. In his modest way Ben will tell vou that he was verv luckv while wrestling. He's only had a few bones broken. Instead of giving luck the credit, I would credit this to his skill and knowledge of the sport. Since becoming an Adventist in 1948, Ben has not used his knowl- edge and training to any extent, but he treasured two awards of his years of study and labor. His cere- monial robes and his Black Belt were his prize possessions. They were because Ben was among the number who lost everything they owned except what they had on their backs during the Christmas Eve fire. I'm sure that many would gain a lot from being around Ben and witnessing his hanpv. courageous life KENNETH MAYES Neaxi fetiejji luf (leel Editor . Beilly Price Sports Editor .

Whereas most groups have live animals for mascots, we here at Porter have a somewhat inanimate one. I say somewhat inanimate, be- cause our darlin' little car may be of rather ancient vintage—surely she was acquainted with this world be- fore most of the members of the sophomore class were—but she has her own winsome personality and ways of endearing herself to us. Elder and Mrs. Johnson bought her to be the "missionary car" for the Porter nursing students, to transport them to and from Bible studies. With the wind in our favor, and all leaning forward simultan- eously, we find ourselves barreling along at a breakneck 30 m.p.h. and really enjoying the expressions we see on people's faces as we breeze along beside them. Bearing in mind her stronger points, we find it in our hearts to forgive her mischiev- ous trait of spouting high in the air a perfect "Old Faithful" when the brakes are applied without a full block's advance notice; and her coy way of cautiously pulling across an intersection two car lengths behind every other car when the light turns green. Then there was the night that she took a group of us to an important meeting, where we met students from seven other Denver schools of nursing. Enroute we tried to buy a dollar's worth of gasoline, but the service station attendant only shook his head and told us he couldn't get more than forty-eight cents worth in! When we left the meeting that night, we noticed two of the girls from another school getting into a beautiful red convertible. So we hung back and walked more slowly toward the lot where we had parked our little friend. Very short- ly however, we realized she is everv bit as worthy as any 1954 converti- ble, for she is not only our mascot but also is a very active participant in the Lord's work. She is our Mis- sionary car. Feb. 27 Henry W.

BEHIND THE SCENES Bouquets to the following who worked behind the scenes to make the talent program successful: Mrs. Deming, Miss Ramey, Mrs. Rhodes, Mrs. Multer, Mrs.' Duffield, Mr. Wagner, and Mrs. Welch, the pro- gram committee; Don Dick, student director of the play; Mr. Johnson and Mr. Griese, and Launnie Rein- holtz, who built stage sets; Clair Johnson, hair dresser; Earl Johnson, Roland Jensen, and Leland Kaiser, who arranged lighting and micro- phones. A temperance play, The Sen- tence, was given by Mary and Kathy Howell, Monte Morris, and Norman Winton for Youth Fellow- ship, February 27. In the story, a youth who caused a death because of drunken driving promises five years of his life to teaching others not to drink. Carolyn Rhodes was recently awarded $25 for writing a first prize jingle in the 1953 temperance con- test. The jingle was: "If you drink And try to drive, Don't expect To stay alive." Congratulations to the Academy Quartet for winning the grand prize in the Amateur Hour last Saturday night, and to Natalie Deming for winning first prize in the Instru- mental I section. And so it goes—our life here has its spiritual side, its "booklearnin" side, and its recreations. Our Sat- urday night's Valentine party was a regular "homecoming," with jun- iors who are out on affiliations back "home" for the evening with the rest of the juniors and us sopho- mores here at Porter. There were good music, games of all sorts, and luscious refreshments. The biggest laugh of the evening was provided by the fellows and their musical- chairs-type of race with women's hats. It was so good, in fact, that the ovation commanded a repeat performance. Such good sports! Lynelle King, who was emcee at the Valentine party, learned recent- ly that life in the nurse's dorm at Porter has its own peculiar hazards. It seems that nothing is safe when left unmarked within reach of our "dorcas-loyal" housemom. Mrs. Cor- nell. Lynelle came up missing her good gray skirt and conducted a frenzied search for it—only to dis- cover it in Mrs. Cornell's Dorcas box. It seems she laid it on Mrs. Cornell's bed! What a likely story! But it just goes to show what an active Dorcas society we have here in Denver! "The Y'outh Rally" was sponsored by the youth council from the Den- ver area Friday and Sabbath after- noons, February 19 and 20. Elder John Hancock, from the Lake Union conference, was guest speaker. Spe- cial music was provided by students from Campion Academy and young people in Denver. Song service was accompanied by Elder Hancock on his accordion. The Davenport Barber Shop " It Pays To Look Well" 4744 Prescott March lived up to its reputation of coming in like a lion. The weath- er turned cold here in the Midwest, but in Washington, D.C. fireworks were popping. A group of Puerto Ricans shouting, "Free Puerto Rico" opened fire with pistols in the House of Representatives. As the bullets rained down, the represen- tatives fled, but five were wounded in th melee. ( Just under the fra- cas ). In San Francisco the police tried to serve a Ted Martin Sr. with a summons for six traffic charges. The wife informed the officers that her husband was not at home. At this time Ted Jr. announced, "Daddy is in the front room." They checked, but no daddy was to be seen. So Junior chimed in, "Look under the sofa." Sure enough, there was fath- er. Dad took it in stride, and said he had trained the boy to be honest. The list of known elements has reached 100.

We certainly thank Miss Myrtle Max- well for the fine program. Do mice have bugs? Sally Nugent must think so, for Tuesday night she caught one in her room and im- mediately gave it a bath to remove them all. Speaking of animals, Barbara Nash has quite a dislike for squir- rels. Twice she has come home to find one in her room nibbling her crackers. What's more, she says it actually sat outside and laughed at her. To make matters even worse, the window was open and the cur- tains had blown out on the ledge, and what did that squirrel do but sit on them! We were very happy to have some of the seniors from South- 'western junior Colic g e w'th us last week end. Wednesday lr'ght. February 24, twenty-one of them arrived in their bus from Keene. It seems Yvonne (Fluff) Arvid- son, in the joy of just getting her cap and gown, couldn't w.iit vo nut them on. But like the neat girl that she is. she went to press the gown first. Imagine her surprise to dis- cover that the sleeves struck her at about the elbows and the hem came to about her knees! Really Fluff, you did a beautiful job of pressing Carol Grubb's gown.

I'ly Opinion Since there has been much dis- cussion lately about a student fo- rum at Union College, the editors thought that it would be advisable to run some more comments from the student body. Carleyn Mock, senior education major, Nebraska: I believe this could be made an important part of a democratic school system. By hav- ing forum meetings in which every- one can participate, anyone's opin- ions, gripes, and so forth, could be voiced. Ma 17 Cagnolatti, senior elemen- tary education major, Louisiana: In my opinion, a student forum would be just the thing for making the students feel that they are part of the school organization, instead of robots. Then we could feel that this is a democracy. Lamoine Pearson, sophomore busines major, Kansas: Student for- um meetings would be a good idea. It would give all the students a chance to voice their opinions on any matter they have. If ideas can be promoted rather than killed there, many things can be accom- plished. Gene Johnson, junior ministerial major, Minnesota: This idea of stu- dent forum strikes me all right. In the past we have neither had much of an occasion to express our opin- ions nor have we felt free to. We should have a period of time for this purpose only and have a couple of faculty sponsors. INTRAMURALS Table Tennis The ping pong tournament is well into its second week and there have been many close games this year. However, the field is narrowing down and the experts are beginning to stand out. The race appears to be among Doug Hill, Jack Jester, and Carl Bauer with Curtiss Dale and Phil Rowland as possible dark horses. This next week will see a new champion crowned and well deserving of the title "king of the bouncing ball." Badminton The next tournament to be play- ed will be that using the racket and shuttlecock. All prospective badminton players who are inter- ested in entering the tournament in either the "singles" or "doubles" di- visions should register in the physi- cal education office not later that March 14.

MOST POULAR E:.:?.7?.fC SHAVER RICE PHARMACY "You have taken a drink from a wild fountain Early in the year; There is nowhere to go from the top of the mountain But down, my dear." But the music department has been doing its best to disprove Sara Teasdale. With programs for the community, personal appear- ances for local organizations, radio and television shows, and plenty of etceteras all through the year, the department has remained in the light—light partly generated by its own brightness. Among its more il- lumined achievements is the choral concert presented by the Golden Cords on KFOR and KFOR-TV Sunday night, February 21. The program was favorably recognized by local musicians, Professor Rhodes r e p o r t e d from Omaha where he, with Miss Betty Ann Christensen and Mr. Charles Wat- son, piaiio teachers, attended a music teacher's convention last week. «««««« At the senior class recognition proeram a week ago, several "ma- jor" discoveries were made. One was that there are only three gradu- ates this year with B.S. degrees in music education. Checking, I found that last year there was only one; next year there may not be any. Where does this dearth begin? More important, where will it end? Without teachers, few students are inspired; without students, no ulti- mate teachers. Education in music should begin early; and, if parents aren't able to teach music to their children, schools must supply the instruction. Few parents are able; ppparently few schools are! But the cycle must start somewhere. »»»»»» Manv students have both inter- est and ability in music. Knowing 'his, 1 started a small inquiry: "Why . . . •, r l l 'l poi major in it: Oil, i cumuli L teach anything!" "I'm not good enough!" What's wrong, students?—afraid of yourselves? We hear and read that the Midwest is "notoriously uncultured." You're a part of the Midwest. Moreover, those who enter the Kingdom of Heaven will be those who have taken advantage of, de- veloped, and used their talents. South eMail GlatU* The conversation in South hall these days seems to run along one of two lines, in most cases. Either the fellows are discussing our recent visitors from Southwestern Junior College or they are discussing the financial crisis that will extend for the next few months. Young women are fine inventions, but the same as for all other good products, one is obligated to pay for them. We enjoy showing a girl how much we appreciate her, but as hosts for a number of the banquets we fellows must take the long range view of things. There is Sigma Iota Kappa's banquet, the Pre-med ban- quet, and the Junior-Senior banquet yet to come; and a good proportion of the fellows feel responsible for all three. That reminds me of a proverb: "Money is like promises, easily made, but hard to keep." Seems as if some of the fellows were kiddin' the guys who were here from Keene about watching the water fountains as if there were no water in Texas. That's all right, some of us, like Harold Feikes and Alan King, can remember this sum- mer when there was barely water to shower in for a number of weeks. "A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion." FRANCES BACON, Of Atheism "I speak truth, not so much as I would, but as much as I dare; and I dare a little the more, as I grow older." MONTAIGNE, Of Repentance PR Meets are Tops as Coffey Holds Workshops A two-day Press Relations Work- shop for students and faculty was directed by Cecil R. Coffey of the General Conference Press Relations Bureau on February 23 and 24. Mr. Coffey spoke in lower divi- sion chapel on February 22 and on February 23, Elder I. R. Ferren, head of Press Relations Bureau, told how the gospel is being spread in the newspapers and mag- azines of the world. Elder Ferren aho presented the press secretaries of the Southwest, Central, Northern, and Lake Unions who were in Lin- coln to attend a Press Relations Convention at the Cornhusker Hotel February 22 and 23. Mr. Coffey, who has had experi- ence as a newspaper reporter and editor of the College of Medical Evangelists' publications prior to his present position, introduced the pamphlets and other material the Press Relations Bureau has pre- pared and made available to the minister and the layman. In addition to pointing out ele- ments of newswriting and report- ing church news, Mr. Coffey show- ed a film strip to bring out many of the more important factors in writing a good church news report. The workshop was designed to aid particularly ministerial, journalism, and other students who will face the problem of spreading the Ad- vent message by way of news- papers, radio, and TV. 32/ In GOLD'S Men's Store...
