Tuition Charge Monthly Next Year;  
Wages And Charges Increase Also  
Tuition charges will be back on  
the monthly basis and slightly in-
creased next year, reports Mr. 
W. 13. Higgins, assistant business  
manager.  
Entrance fees, wages, room rent,  
and food prices will also be 
changed, according to recent 
Board of Trustees action.  
The tuition charges for full work  
(1.3-16 hours), will be $700 per  
year as compared with $650 this 
year. The increase amounts to 
about $3 per semester hour, said  
Higgins. Tuition will be charged  
in eight monthly payments.  
"So many felt that the heavy  
charges three times during the  

year worked a hardship on them," 
Higgins explained, "that the Board 
felt it best to change back to the 
old system."  
A $200 entrance fee will be  
charged next year. One hundred of  
this amount will be the advance 
deposit, and the other $100 will 
he applied on the account to cover 
fees, books, room, etc. The ad-
vance deposit will be credited on 
tho final statement as previously.  
The wage ceiling will  be raised  
approximately 5<f per hour. This  
should compensate in part for the  
other increases, said Higgins.  
Room rent will be raised from  
$28 to $30, and the food prices will  
be increased slightly.

Howard Still Unconscious  
After Campus Accident  
As a result  of a campus  accident  last  Thursday, Jerry  Howard is  still unconscious.  Although at  the  latest  report  liis  condition  is  slowly  improving, and physical  responses are near normal,  he has  not yet regained  full  consciousness.  
Howard, a sophomore pre-med  
student from Missouri, was playing 
center field for Everett Sehlisner's 
team in the intra-mural softball 
league when the accident occured.  
He and right fielder Dean Dowdall  
collided as they tried to field a  
fly ball. "Both men were running  
to get the ball, and neither ap- 
parently called for the catch," 
said Wayne Flemming, instructor 
in physical education,  who saw the  
accident.  
"As Howard and Dowdall neared  
each other they went low to get  
the fast falling ball. They collided 
with such force that Howard was  
knocked unconscious immediately,"  
said Fleming. The top of Dowdall's  
head and the temple region of  
All Extension Class  
Here This Summer  
An extension class from Andrews  
University is to be held  here this  
summer in conjunction with the 
applied theology class to be held 
in Minneapolis.  
Elder P.  C. James, professor of  
religion, will teach the class of-
fered in eschatology which runs  
June 10 to July 12, with registra- 
tion June 8. Elder E. C. Banks, 
chairman of applied theology at 
AU, will be present part of the  
time.  
Four hours credit will be earned  
by those who participate in the 
applied theology class. Those hav-
ing a B.A. can have it applied as  
graduate work, and upper divi-
sion collegc students will have the  
credit applied toward their theo-
logy requirements, said Elder Jar-
nes.  
Elder R. M. Whitsett, Northern  
Union evangelist, assisted by the 
pastors of the Twin Cities area, 
will direct an evangelistic cam- 
paign in a modern airdomc tent,  
according to James. Those taking  
fjip course will assist in the Min- 
neapolis campaign.  
Thomas Neslund, sophomore,  
Ronald Christensen, junior, and 
Don Burgenson, senior, ministerial  

Howard's head met with such  
impact that, according to hospital  
reports, Howard suffered a frac- 
tured skull.  
Fleming, who was supervising  
the game, summoned aid for the  
injured player. "Jerry seemed to  
be having a hard time breathing  
and was shaking all over," said  
Fleming, "so I called the College  
View fire department for a re- 
suscitator and Bryan Memorial  
Hospital for an ambulance."  
Other than the initial blow, and  
shock of the collision, Dowdall  
suffered no serious injury and 
was not hospitalized. 
Visiting Scientist  
Lectures May 1,2  
Dr. Richard Byerrum, assistant  
provost and professor of chemistry 
at Michigan State University, visi-
ted Union Collegc last Tuesday 
and Wednesday.  
Professor Byerrum visited Union  
as part of the "Visiting Scientist" 
program sponsored by the National  
Science Foundation and the Di- 
vision of Education of the Ameri-
can Chemical Society.  
"The purpose of the Visiting  
Scientist program is to promote in- 
terest in chemistry in the smaller 
colleges," explained Dr. Rene  
Evard, chairman of the chemistry  
department. "This is done by send- 
ing instructors from the large uni- 
versities to the smaller schools to 
help them keep pace with the 
progress of science."  
Dr. Byerrum's visit was to pro- 
mote and develop interest in chem- 
istry. He spoke to the General  
Chemistry and Biochemistry class-
es, and addressed a special meet- 
ing of chcmistry majors Wednes-
day afternoon.  
students, have signed up for the  
classes, James said.  
Elder Whitsett and his assist- 
ants will continue to work with  
those who become interested in  
joining the church during the  
campaign.  

ASB Committee Discuss  
Campus Social Problems  
Campus day activities and Sat- 
urday night programs have been  
reviewed by  a special committee  
of the ASB, according to Don Tan,  
student body president.  
The committee, under the chair- 
manship of Roger Davis, junior 
history major, submitted a report  
to the executive officers of the ASB  
agreeing with the faculty decision 
to discontinue campus day.  
One suggestion made by the  
committee was that there be more  
play periods during the week to 
encourage better school spirit and  
allow more students to take part 
in group activities.  
It was pointed out that "worship  
is usually out by 7:10 and twenty  
minutes are wasted before study  
period begins." The suggestion was  
that worship start at 7 three nights  
a week to provide for "better and  
more lengthy social and sports fea-
tures."  
In discussing the Saturday night  
programs and socials, committee  
members recommended more so- 
cials and programs planned and di-
rected by students. It was felt that 
this would "be more conducive to 
making the students feel they are  
a part of the school program."  
In the opinion of the committee,  
"the Saturday night programs were  
usually of less than top quality." 
They suggested that "fewer good 
programs would be better than  
many below average programs."  
House, Senate Combine  
In Government Revision  
The House of Representatives  
is busy completing plans for re-
vising student government.  
Buddy Borris, vice president of  
the ASB and speaker of the House, 
said that the new system action 
would be streamlined. He said  
that many existing committees  
would be eliminated and that  
remaining ones should be able to  
work more efficiently.  
"The proposed changes would  
include faculty in the House and  
eliminate the Senate," Borris  
stated. Class and club presidents  
and heads of ASB committees  
would also be House members. 
Therefore much more finalizing 
could be done in council meetings, 
thus facilitating student govern- 
ment operation.  
With less referring through  
other channels and less red tape  
in general, it is hoped by the  
present House that future repre- 
sentatives can enjoy more ef- 
ficient action on proposed mea- 
sures.  
Although the "due processes of  
law" are, as a rule, time consum- 
ing, they can become so bungle- 
some as to discourage rather than 
encourage government, law, and 
order, Borris explained.  
Borris said that the problem of  
the exact powers which the stu- 
dents have will still exist. He said 
that some students feel they 
should be able to try anything in  
the House, others don't realize  
what could be done, but no one  
really knows for sure.  

atmosphere of spring flowers and 
newly budded trees, accentuated 
by a colorful water fountain, stated 
Dan Fausset, junior class presi- 
dent.  
The Harmonettes and a saxo- 
phone quartette from Union Col-
lege and one or two groups from  
the University of Nebraska will  
be featured on the program. The  
shopping center will provide a 
piano, said Fausset.  
The menu, to be served buffet  
style, will include punch, salad, 
garlic bread, spaghetti and "sewer-
pipe" (a special kind of Italian  
macaroni), pistachio ice cream  
and Italian cookies. A nearby caf-
eteria will do the catering.  
"We are anticipating favorable  
weather," said Fausset, "but in  
the event of bad weather, a re- 
ception hall seating some five  
hundred people will be available 
in the shopping center."  
In charge of arrangements are  
Steve Gifford, entertainment; Ross  
McClain, tables; Virginia Eichen- 
berger, leave permits from Rees 
Hall; and James Pastor, printed 
programs and menus.  

The inauguration of the associ- 
ated student body officers for 1962- 
63 will take place at the regular 
convocation period May 11.  
President-elect Steve Gifford  
will be administered the oath of  
office by Mitchell Tyner, chief  
Library Receives  
Columbia Records  
Sixty long-playing Columbia  
Masterworks records have been  
given to the Union College library  
by Columbia Records Company.  
According to Librarian Floda  
Smith, most of the library records  
previous to this addition consisted  
of those purchased for speech and 
English work, Sabbath music, and 
some classical records received as a  
gift.  
The records are being arranged  
by type—band, instrumental, piano,  
strings, concertos, sacred, sympho-
nies, vocals, ctc. There will be a  
composer card for those albums of  
music by one or two individuals.  
Cards will also be made of the title  
of the album, the major performer, 
and the orchestra playing.  
Miss Gertrude Huygens, assist- 
ant librarian, is cataloguing the 
new records. "This summer all our 
other records will be catalogued 
into our new system," Miss Huy- 
gens said.  

justice of the supreme court.  
President Donald Tan and Steve  
Gifford will each give a speech.  
The devotional will be under the  
direction of the college president,  
D. J. Bieber, who will also make 
some remarks on the role of the 
ASB in collegiate life.  
The MCC color guard will bring  
in the flags, after which there will  
be the pledge of allegiance. The  
"Star Spangled Banner" will be  
sung by freshman Beverly Keith. 
The color guard will also escort  
the president-elect to the platform.  
The entrance of the student  
body supreme court is a traditional  
part of the annual program. The 
court is comprised of Chief Justice  
Mitchell Tyner, junior; Dan Duff,  
junior; seniors Erling Schroeder,  
Mary Harlan, Brenda Bradley; and 
faculty members Dr. H. G. Rein- 
muth, professor of modern and Bib-
lical languages, Mr. Kenneth Spaul- 
ding, instructor in physics, and Mrs.  
Irma Minium, professor of secre-
tarial science.  
The retiring officers, Buddy  
Borris, vice - president, Darlene 
Zempel, treasurer, and Bernelda 
Johnson, secretary, will also be 
seated on the platform.  
Gifford and the other new ASB  
officers, vice-president-elect James 
Pastor, secretary-elect Mary Nell 
Roper and treasurer-elect Jo 
Eskildsen, will assume their re- 
sponsibilities June 1.  
'It#s Hard To Leave/Says Dean Culver  
As He Considers His17 Years At Union  
"We have enjoyed it here at  
Union. It's going to be hard to  
leave," rcflccted "the dean" as he 
sat behind the large desk in his 
office.  
"Seventeen years in one place- 
well, your heart is buried there," 
said M. S. Culver, dean of men, as  
he reflected his past experiences  
at Union. This year is the last year 
at Union for the Culver's since he 
has accepted a call to be dean of 
men at Walla Walla College in  
College Place, Washington for next  
year.  
After graduation from Union in  
the spring of 1928 Culver was dean 
of boys at Oak Park Academy in  
Nevada, Iowa for seven years and  
principal of the Academy for the 
following three years. From the  
fall of 1938 to 1945 the Culvers  
were at Adelphian Academy in  
Holly, Michigan, where he served  
as principal for seven years. While 
at Adelphian he earned his M.A. 
degree in Secondary School Ad-
ministration from the University of 
Michigan.  
Many Changes  
"There have been quite a few  
changes at Union since that first  
day when we arrived in 1945," 
recalled Culver as he thought back  
over the past 17 years spent here. 
When we came to Union they were  
just finishing the science building.  
During our first year here they  
moved the science department 
from the administration building  
to the new science hall.  
"Next on the list of campus im- 
provements was the music building.  
Then work began on the new South  
Hall. After part of the new men's  
dormitory was finished the build- 
ing program shifted to the con- 
struction of Rccs Hall. It was a 
welcome sight to see the new dor- 
mitories taking shape," said Culver.  
Old South  Hall  
When the Culvers came to Union  
both the men's and women's resi- 
dence halls were old frame build- 
ings. "I'll never forget old South  
Hall," commented Culver with a  
smile. "We had quite an apartment.  
It consisted of four rooms along  
ono hall. One room was the living 
room, the second room was sub-
divided into kitchen, dining room 
a n d bathroom. The other two  
rooms were bedrooms. Our pre-
sent apartment with six rooms and 
bath is a real improvement over 
that."  
Although South Hall was in use  

in 1953 it was not finished until  
last year when the north wing was 
added and the worship room com-
pleted. From 1946 to 1961 there 
was no regular South Hall worship  
room. Students met for morning  
and evening worship programs in 
the auditorium of the administra-
tion building. 
Worship  Room  
"One of the most welcome im- 
provements on the campus was the 
completed worship room in South  
Hall," Culver pointed out. "We  
have been looking forward to a 
new worship room since 1946, and 
we are proud of what we have  
now. It is a real relief to have our  
own worship room," he said. One 
of the most gratifying experiences  
that came to Dean Culver during  
his stay at Union College has been  
to have dedicated to him the 1957  
GOLDEN CORDS; an  honor he  
treasures very much.  
There are other things that have  
impressed Dean  Culver in the last  
17 years. One of these is the early  
morning worship service on Sab- 
bath. The idea of  a voluntary early  
morning worship on Sabbath morn- 
ing began in the second year of  
Culver's stay at Union.  
Early  Worship  
"We began the early Sabbath  
services in the school year of 1946- 
1947," he recalled. "The main idea  
of the service was to get a good  
start into the Sabbath."  
Although the program starts at  
7 a.m. and is a strictly voluntary  

worship service many have attend-
ed over the years. According to 
Culver. "Response of the men to  
this program has been one of my  
main satisfactions here."  
Official duties end here June 10  
for the Culvers. They plan to take  
a little vacation before going to  
Walla Walla where Culver will  
rcplace Jack Upchurch as dean of  
men at Sittner Hall. Assisting Cul- 
ver in his work as dean of the 410  
occupant dormitory will be Nor- 
man Woods, a 1958 graduate of 
Union. There has been no official  
release of who will replace Culver 
as dean of South Hall next year.  
When asked about what he  
thought of dean's work after 24 
years of experience Culver said,  
"Dean's work is probably as fine  
a work as any person can find";  
then with a quick smile added, 
"there are no dull moments when  
you are a dean."  
Most  Important  
The most important thing about  
the work of a dean? "Trying to  
live a consistent Christian life 
before those with whom I as-
sociate," said Culver. "That is the 
one thing that is most important 
about the work of being a dean.  
"If there is one thing I want  
for the men of South Hall more 
than anything else it is that they 
develop a sincere trust in God, 
one that can help them find the 
solution to any problem," said the 
man who has spent the last 17  
years of his life working toward  
that goal.  
With the symbol of Union in the background, M. S. Culver, dean  
of men, recalls the last 17 years of dormitory work in South Hall.  
Next year, when he begins as dean of men at Walla Wolla College,  
will be his twenty-fifth year as a dean.

Rowland Guest Speaker  
At Nemaha High School  
Dr. Neil Rowland, professor of  
biology, was the guest speaker at 
the Nemaha High School, Nemaha, 
Nebraska, for science day, April 18.  
The program consisted of stu- 
dent exhibits and Dr. Rowland's  
lecture on the "Symbiotic Rela- 
tionship of Plants" in which  he  
used results obtained by senior  
Evan Hagelgantz in his research on  
various effects of nitrogen levels on  
soybeans. The final event was 
student demonstrations and lectures  
on different subjects in science.  
"There were about 200 students  
at the program," Rowland said,  
"and the students seemed very in-
terested and responded very well."  
These visiting science programs  
are sponsored by the Nebraska 
Academy of Sciences, of which 
Rowland is a member. The Na-

Union Plans World Tour;  
( Hours Credit Offered  
by Dr. R. K. Nelson  
A nine-weeks' around-the-world  
tour is being planned for the 
summer of 1963 by the Union 
College History and English De- 
partments.  
Most of the travel on the ex- 
pedition will be by regular air-
lines. Short-distance travel within 
various countries will be by train, 
bus, boat, taxi, or perhaps mule-
back, camel, or elephant.  
The trip will include visits to  
Seventh-day Adventist schools, 
hospitals, and mission stations 
wherever possible. In a number of 
places missionaries will serve as  
guides.  Points  of Interest  
Some of the points of interest  
to be seen include; London, Paris, 
Switzerland, Venice, Rome, Athens, 
Turkey, Russia, Egypt, Jerusalem,  
Damascus, Pakistan, India, Bang- 
kok, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo,  
and Honolulu. Wherever possible  
Saturdays will be spent at a  
Seventh-day Adventist institution. 
There will he no travel on Sab- 
bath.  Side Trips  
Several side trips will be taken.  
Those who desire may go by ship  
from Istanbul, Turkey, across the  
Black Sea to southern Russia for  
a visit to Yalta and Odessa. In  
Europe, the students will be able  
to take a chair lift to the top of  
a mountain peak in the Swiss Alps,  
ride the canals of Venice in a 
gondola, and visit St. Peter's in 
Vatican City.  Mule  Or Camel  
In Egypt the group will visit  
the pyramids and the Sphinx. 
Those who wish may go by camel.  
Events connected with the life  
of Christ will become more real 
by walking the streets of Beth- 
lehem and climbing the Mt. of 
Olives while in the Holy Land.  

Several days will be spent in  
India. Tourist attractions tliere in- 
clude both the world-famous Taj 
Mahal and the Hindu holy city of 
Benares. The Union College group 
has already been invited to a  
private Chinese home in Singapore 
tor a real Oriental dinner. Never- 
to-be-forgotten sights will include  
Hindu fire walking, the death- 
houses in Chinatown, and a visit  
to a Malay village.  
Moderate  Expenses  
Expenses for the tour will be  
kept moderate by avoiding luxury  
hotels and allowing each person 
to choose his own food. A total  
of six hours of college credit will 
be available, half in history and 
half in literature. Dr. Russell K. 
Nelson, professor of history and 
sociology, will direct the tour and 
teach the history class. His as-
sistant will be Mr. Dale Ilepker, 
instructor in English, who will  
teach the literature.  
The group will leave Lincoln on  
June 11, 1963, for the nine-weeks'  
flight around the world.  
People from eleven different  
states have already joined the  
group. Anyone interested in be- 
coming a  member of this traveling  
class should contact Dr. Nelson  at  
Union College in the near future.

Allen Visits Chicago;  
Hears Barth Lecture  
Elder Sydney Allen, assistant  
professor of religion attended lec- 
tures by Karl Barth at the Univer-
versity of Chicago April 23-27.  
Barth is a noted protestant theo- 
logian who is retiring from his pro-
fessorship at Basel, Switzerland. 
Visiting the United States for the  
first time, Barth was giving his  
series of lectures on the "Good  
News about the God of the Gos-
pel."  
Barth says that "every Christian  
has to be a theologian. All minis-
ters that say they are administra- 
tors and not theologians are dere-
lict in their duty."  
Allen believes that "Barth is the  
foremost proponent of Christianity  
as defined by the prophets of the  
Bible. Of all the modern leaders  
in theology, Barth is certainly the 
closest to our point of view, even  
though there are many points of  issue."  
Commenting on his impression  
of the American people, Barth felt 
that they have a inferiority com- 
plex toward Europeans, when they  
really have nothing to be ashamed  
of. Also, Americans tend to have  
a false feeling of superiority to  
Asians and Africans.  
Before going to Chicago, Allen  
spoke at the central states youth  
congress on "How to know your 
Life's Work." While in Chicago,  
he attended several concerts. The  
rest of his time was spent in study- 
ing and listening to Barth's lec- 
tures.  
Reds Push Atheism  
By Using Movies  
In an effort to further stamp  
out interest in religion, the USSR  
is scheduling anti-religious films at 
motion picture houses in areas  
where television docs not vet 
reach.  
Two films now making the  
rounds are "Ivnnna," the story of  
a Catholic Ukrainian girl, who

2 Musical Groups 
Give Denver Benefit  
An exchange  ASB program to  
the Coloradao campus is being  
planned for this week end.  
Don Tail, ASB president, re- 
ports that the trip has a two-fold  
purpose. "We are giving a pro- 
gram to help  raise funds for send- 
ing a representative from the Den- 
ver campus to the National Nurses'  
Convention, and secondly, we  
wish to create a stronger bond be- 
tween the Denver ASB and the 
ASB on the main campus."  
Future plans are that the Den- 
ver campus students will give an  
exchange chapel program some  
time next year.  
Representing the ASB in Denver  
will be two musical groups from  
the Lincoln campus and several 
guest artists. The Harmonettes, 
under the direction of senior Ruth  
Ann Hagen, and the Men of South  
Hall, directed by junior Bob Tan,  
will leave Union Friday after the  
new ASB officers are sworn in 
at the chapel program.  
The musical groups will be pre- 
senting a secular program Saturday  
night at Denver Junior Academy 
as well as other appointments on 
Saturday. During Saturday morn-
ing the groups will split into  
several small groups in order to 
provide special music for the var- 
ious churches of the Denver area.  
At three in the afternoon they will 
put on a special MV program at  
Denver Central church.  
Those on the promotional trip  
are Marlene Ellstrom, Mary Harlan,  
Jane Zcnonani, Nancy Cachero.  
Edwina Jay, Evie Bird, Bobbie  
Brown, Doug Anderson, Joe Stock. 
Dennis Schlisner, Arlie Fandrich, 
Rodney Burbach, Vernon Usher,  
Everett Schlisner, Richard Stim-

Student Leaders Discuss Problems,  
Map Future For ASB Government  
by Pat  
"Young people of today are loo  
conservative," Professor Leif Kr.  
Tobiassen of Andrews University  
told the 41 delegates at the 12th  
a n n u a 1 Eastern Intercollegiate  
Workshop. "If changes are needed,  
the youth must make them," he  
urged.  
Held at Southwestern Junior  
College April 25-28, the work- 
shop was attended by delegates  
from the eight Seventh-day Ad- 
ventist colleges east of the Roekies  
;ind the two editors-elect from La  
Sierra College. Representing Union 
College were: Steve Gifford, James  
Pastor, Linda Peyer and Pat Phil-
lips.  
In the keynote address, Tobias- 
sen urged the student leaders to  
"take time" for and invest energy  
the Associated Student Body  
problems. The most rare talent in 
America today is delegating, he  
said, emphasizing the importance  
of more participation in ASB func- 
tions. Student leaders should not  
he afraid of carrying responsibil- 
ity, though it be heavy, he con-
cluded.  
Professor George II. Akers, dean  
of student affairs at La Sierra Col- 
lege, described the profile of a 
student leader. "If a student does 
not see a vision, he shouldn't run 
for office," Akers believes. The  
apathy regarding student govern- 
ment exists because the faculty and 
students don't work as partners, 
he said.  
"Student leaders play marbles  
when there are mountains to be  
moved; let's make some changes," 
he challenged.  
The workshop was divided into  
four sectional conferences for sepa-
rate discussions. These were the 
administrative, social, newspaper, 
and yearbook sections.  
The publications section recom- 
mended that the editors of the 
two publications on campus have  

Phillips  
a seat in the top legislative body  
of the student government. It was  
felt that this is important since the  
publications spend two-thirds of  
the ASB yearly budget.  
Also suggested was the election  
of the yearbook editor earlier in  
the year so that he might have  
more time to plan and select staff 
for the coming year. The recom-
mended minimum wage for annual  
editor was set at $100 per year.  
The social secretaries discussed  
plans for more supper dates with  
programs during the year.  
A leadership course to be held  
at the beginning of the school year  
for committee chairmen and other  
officers of the ASB was advised  
by the administrative section.  
A majority vote decided that the  
present workshop plan, with im-
provements made where necessary,  
be followed next year. Columbia 
Union College at Washington, D.C.  
will host the 13th annual workshop  
to be held in the spring of 1963.  
Collegians Discuss  
Church And College  
More than 500 representatives  
from some 300 Christian colleges 
will meet June 17 through 21 at  
St. Olaf College in Northfield,  
Minnesota. Major topic of dis- 
cussion will be the relationship 
of the Christian college to Church  
and State.  
Other main themes of the con- 
ference will be the question of 
freedom and the Christian col- 
lege, and the college's claim to  
be both an academic and Christian  
community.  
The five-day Quadrennial Con- 
vocation of Christian Colleges is 
sponsored by the Council of Pro-
testant Colleges and Universities, 
which is related to the National  
Council of Churches' Commission  
on Higher Education.

Freshmen Advised, "Play The Field  
While Senior Coeds Set The Date  

##

Although some people think that old-maids  are the authorities  
on marriage, it has been discovered that there are some authorities 
on campus who will never be old maids. Or at least if they don't  
have all the answers now, they soon will.  
by Jane Nowack  
"The perfect formula for college  
social life," a wise friend once told 
a young uninitiated coed, "is this:  
date everybody your freshman  
year, start choosing your sopho- 
more year, go steady your junior  
year and get engaged your senior 
year."  
Some girls must have accepted  
that advice because there are now  
a few couples on our campus who  
face the dual dilemma of grad- 
uation and marriage. Interviewing 
each person individually, I asked 
which event dominated their think- 
ing. The girls looked at mo in- 
dignantly and gasped, "Why, my 
wedding." But  the fellows were  
not so resolved and their majority 
vote was cast for graduation.  In The Bag  
One matter-of-fact fellow said,  
"Graduation isn't in the bag; the  
wedding is."  
From behind a mound of books  
another urgently remarked, "If  
I don't graduate there won't be  
a wedding, there'll be a funeral."  
It is often interesting to learn  
how such devoted male scholars 
can be persuaded to propose mar- 

tra- 

riage to a young lady. Apple  Pie  
Being well aware of the  
ditional engagement watch, one 
senior girl became quite excited  
during the past Christmas vaca- 
tion when she read this message 
on a Chinese fortune cookie, "The  
near future holds a fine gift of  
jewelry." Unknown to her and  
1,600 miles away her friend pur- 
chased a slender gold watch that  
same vacation. He carefully re- 
hearsed the important question  
and planned to give her the watch  
on Valentine's Day. But  she up- 
set his plans by baking him an 
apple pie and he helplessly sur- 
rendered earlier than was sched-
uled.  
One bride-to-be, who became  
engaged on St. Patrick's Day, said 
she was so excited that the night 
he asked her the big question she 
couldn't sleep, the next night she  
slept only half the night and the 
following' evening she fell asleep  
from sheer exhaustion.  
A problem that faces every  
bride is learning how to cook and 
an equally difficult problem that  
House Report  
House Probes (haperonage Rules; 
Asks Posting of Cafeteria Menus  
At the April 25 meeting of the  
House of Representatives, the dele- 
gates discussed several items of in- 
terest to the student body.  
Suggestions  were given  to  the  
Student  Center  Board as follows:  
1. Have someone to take care  
of the stereo in the student center 
at all times.  
2. Join the Columbia Record  
Club.  
3. Inspect the stereo set to see  
whether repairs are needed.  
4. Have plastic covers on the  
magazines and get a magazine  
rack to put the magazines in.  
5. General check be made to  
make sure furniture, etc., is clean 
and neat.  
A motion was passed to nomi- 
nate a committee to look into the 
present chaperonage rules and 
make suggestions for revision. The  
suggestions made were: 1. Those 
over 21 should not be required to  
have a chaperone. 2. On ministerial 
trips chaperonage should not be 
required.  
A motion was passed to give  
KVUC $100 to join the Columbia 
Record Club.  
A motion was also passed to  
see that the menus posted in the  
cafeteria be made to serve their  
original purpose. The original pur-
pose was to list the kind of soup,  
the kind of entree, and the kinds 
World Record Co.  
Gives KVUC Albums  
World Record Company of Waco,  
Texas, has given KVUC ten long- 
playing albums.  
The albums, worth about $50,  
include such artists as the "Haven 
of Rest Quartet" and Ethel Waters.  
According to the speech depart- 
ment, World is one of the largest  
religious record companies.  
This gift came as a result of  
contacts made by Dave Young 
program director of KVUC, and  
Mr. W. I. Rankin, station manager  
and instructor in speech and Eng-
lish. "These records will add con-
siderable to our programing var 
iety and arc a very welcome addi 
tion." Rankin said.

Golden Cords Tradition Continues 
To Show "Union Never Forgets"  

faces some bridegrooms is learning  
how to eat what his newly ac- 
quired "cook" has prepared. Some  
fellows arc generous in their think- 
ing and believe that as long as 
the electric can opener and Betty  
Crocker are around they can sur- 
vive. One tall, thin senior was so 
optimistic as  to declare, "I might  
even get fat."  
However, another viewpoint is  
held by a very practical minded  
young man. "I'll  give her two  
years to learn, but first I'm going 
to take her to my Mom for a  
month." 
Whose Etiquette?  
The social etiquette which dic- 
tates that the bride completely  
plans the wedding must have  
originated before women began  
attending college. The interviewed  
senior women thought the pres-
sure is too great. Book reports,  
term papers, exams, reading assign-
ments are pushed aside to make 
room for Bride's Magazines, dress  
patterns, invitation lists, showers,  
brochures on silver and china, in- 
terior decorating designs and a  
long shopping list.  
Meanwhile the calm, unexcited  
future bridegroom tells his be- 
wildered bride-to-be, "You tell  
me the time and place and I'll be  
there."  
Scholarships Awarded 
To 3 Honor Students  
Scholarships were awarded to  
three students at Honors Convoca- 
tion last Friday, May 4.  
Dr. W. A. Howe, president of  
the Alumni Association presented  
Ruth Elaine Atkinson with a $100  
merit scholarship for having the  
highest grade point average in the 
junior class.  
Miss Atkinson, an elementary  
education major from Arkansas, 
attended Southwestern Junior Col- 
lege, Keene, Texas, before coming  
to Union.  
Two other awards were given  
on behalf of the Campus Women's  
Club to the "two seniors who have  
shown the most improvement spir-
itually, scholastically and socially."  
Mrs. R. J. DeVice, president of  of vegetables served; not: merely ^"^/aWnled'' $25 each to  
Howard Cash, business adminis- 
student to choose his meal before- Jrahon major 
hand and help the dinner line to  

Howard Cash, business adminis- 
from Kansas, and  
Lolita Clements, dietetics major  
from Texas.  
The golden cords that connect  
Union College to its missionaries all 
around the world have come to 
be Union's greatest tradition.  
The primary purpose of the col- 
lege is symbolized by the large 
painting of the clock tower and the 
balancing hemispheres which hang  
the gymnasium.  
Though these cords may lose  
some of their meaning because of 
the frequency with which they are  
viewed, the "Hanging of the Gol- 
den Cords" each year seems to re- 
new their significance.  
Homecoming is a time for mem- 
ories, not just memories of the years  
spent at Union, but years spent in 
service to a needy world and ser- 
vice for God.  
There are several returned mis- 
sionaries on Union's staff, and 
these, with others from this area 
who have served in foreign lands, 
had part in the ceremony Friday 
evening.  
Cords were hung for Unionites  
who have gone to foreign lands in 
the past year.  
Elder Carl Watts, '49, and Mrs.  
Marian Zummach Bakker, '52, both  
soon to return to missions, gave an 
account of life at the other end of 
a golden cord.  
"Mission life isn't easy," said  
Mrs. Bakker. More than love of  
adventure is required of the person 
who leaves behind those who are 
dear, who leams a new language, 
new customs, and a new way of 
living that is quite different from  
life in America. Such a life re- 
quires a spirit of dedication, she 
said.  
This dedication was called for  
by Elder A. R. Mazat, '40, a re- 
turned missionary. Responding to 
this special appeal were future  

teachers, ministers, nurses, doctors  
and others who will show a willing-
ness to serve if called upon.  
Those honored at Homecoming  
this year were the 50 and 25 year 
classes—1912 and 1937. Graduates 
of these and other years came back 
to gaze at the clock tower, the 
golden cords, and to reminisce.  
Sabbath School was under the  
direction of Dr. Neil W. Rowland,  
'47. Kimber D. Johnson, '37, was  
superintendent; Mrs. Felicia Wright  
Hills, '37, gave the secretary's re- 
port; the mission appeal was  
brought by Elder Carl Watts, and  
the lesson study by Arthur Mazat.  
Elder H. V. Reed, a graduate  
of 1937, and now president of the 
Carolina conference spoke at the 
church service. Other highlights or  
'he day included a sacred band  
concert, an organ recital by Van  
Knauss, '61, and Sabbath evening  
vespers.  
With the departure of the alum- 
ni, the voices of the past fade away  
from Union College. However, the  
tradition of the golden cords re- 
mains, an ever-present reminder  
that "Union never forgets her  
own."  

SMC President Speaks 
At Honors Convocation  
The nineteenth annual Honors  
Convocation was held May 4 at  
the regular convocation period.  
Dr. Conard N. Rees, alumnus  
of Union College and president 
of Southern Missionary College 
gave the address.  
Seated at the front of the  
auditorium, the Honor Students 
were officially presented by  
Dean L. Caviness and recog- 
nized by President David J.  
Bieber.  
Tho students participating in  
the Honors Convocation were  
those who have earned a "B"  
average for the past two semesters,  
excepting freshmen who have 
earned a "B" average for one 
semester. To he eligible, all partic- 
ipants must have taken at least 12  
hours of classwork each semester.  
Fleming Instructor  
At Summer Camp  
Mr. W. A. Fleming, director of  
the physical education department, 
will be on the staff at the MCC  
summer camp August 14-28  at  
Portland, Oregon.  
Fleming related that he does  
not yet know what his position  
will be at the camp. "Usually the 
staff members are each given a 
platoon to instruct."  
"I am looking forward to the  
experience with great anticipation." 
He further added that he  expects  
to gain valuable information and  
experience to help him to provide 
a better MCC program at Union.  
Fleming feels-the MCC summer  
camp should be brought to the at-
tention of the men at Union Col- 
lege. "These two weeks are pat-
terned after the boot training pro-
gram in the service, only it is a 
little rougher," he said.  
"The two weeks spent at sum- 
mer camp would be of more value  
to a person than the year of MCC 
work here at Union." This he felt 
would be due to the opportunity  
to live under the real military dis- 
cipline 24 hours a day.  
Foods Class Hears 
Harvard Nutritionist  
The Advanced Nutrition Class  
attended a lecture Thursday eve- 
ning, April 12, given by Dr.  
Frederick J. Stare, chairman of the  
department of nutrition at Har- 
vard University.  
His appearance at Nebraska  
Center for Continuing Education 
was part of the program for Re-
gional Dietetic Convention, April  
11-13. The topic of his lecture  
was "Common Sense Nutrition."  
In 1942, when Dr. Stare became  
chairman of the department of 
nutrition at Harvard, only three  
persons were employed in the 
department. Today more than 100 
persons staff the department.  
A Los Angeles cancer expert  
says that California school child-
ren begin smoking regularly in the  
fifth grade. He also found that  
between 20 and 25 percent of high 
school freshmen say they began 
smoking two or three years before 
they entered high school.  
Lung-cancer deaths in men are

Jim Gardiner Takes Top Place  
In Religious Liberty Orations  
Jim Gardiner, freshman minis- 
terial student, took the top spot in  
the recent Religious Liberty ora- 
torical contest.  
"We arc the watchmcn of mod- 
ern religious freedom," declared  
Gardiner in his winning oration 
during the chapel period April 27.  
Kent Seltman, sophomore Eng- 
lish and specch major, and Tom 
Robinson, a freshman ministerial  
student, took second and third  
places in the contest. Gardiner was  
Interest Is Growing  
In New England Tour  
Interest in the New England  
tour is growing, said Dr. R. K. 
Nelson, professor of history and  
sociology.  
In a recent interview, Dr. Nel- 
son said that two more young men 
have just joined the group and  
have paid the required $25 de-
posit. This is necessary to reserve  
a seat on the bus. "There are us- 
ually more people wanting to go 
than can be accommodated. How- 
ever," Dr. Nelson added, "there  
is still room at the present time."  
The 5,600 mile tour of north- 
eastern United States and Canada  
is a combined history and Eng-
lish session, with six hours of col- 
lege credit. The term begins June 
10; classes will be held on the  
Union College campus until June 
27. The next 23 days wil be spent  
in traveling by chartered bus.  
This economy tour costs $90  
for transportation. Room, board,  
and tuition will be the same as that  
for a student staying on the college  
campus.  
Tho tour directors will be Dr.  
Nelson and Miss Virginia Shull,  
professor of English. Dr. Nelson  
said that applications may be ob-
tained from Miss Shull or himself.  

awarded $35 for his oration. Selt-
man took a  prize of $25 for sec- 
ond and Robinson received $15.  
Judges of the orations were  
Mr. C. L. Gemmell, associate pro- 
fessor of education and psycholo- 
gy; Mr. William Rankin, instruc- 
tor in specch and English; Mr.  
Verne Wehtje, instructor of Eng- 
lish.  
In his speech Gardiner  said that  
"we need government, but when  
we turn our choice of worshipping  
Cod over to the dictates of the 
Supreme Court, Congress or any  
other judicial body, we are forfeit- 
ing the trust handed down to us  
by the great men of America as 
they founded this nation."  
Certain measures passed by the  
courts have "motives hidden under  
the guise of health and welfare, 
while they are in actual fact reli- 
gious issues," said Seltman. He be- 
lieves that each man should choose 
to worship or not to worship as his  
conscience dictates, not as any  
court or judicial body dictates.  
Robinson illustrated how the  
right of the government to tax does 
not license it to contribute special  
aid to any church or church-sup- 
ported schools. He said, "The 
church and state educational sys-
tems should be independent and  
separate as far as tax supports are 
concerned."  
The campus religious liberty club  
plans to make orations a permanent  
part of the future of the club said 
Dan Fausset, club president. "Next  
year we hope to have more per-
sons actively interested in the pro-
gram carried out by the club," he 
said. Future plans include a move 
to promote more religious liberty 
clubs on other campuses and to 
have a national religious liberty 
oratorical contest each yean

Let's Produce More Writers  
Let us start  teacliing  more  journalism at  Union  College.  
In his  editorial  in  the  May 1 issue  of the  Youth's In- 
structor, Editor  Walter  Crandall  again  deplores  tlie  lack  of writers in  our denomination.  Elder  R. R. Hegstad,  editor  of Liberty, pointed  out  the  need for qualified  writers  when  he visited  Union  College  months  ago. Editor  Arthur  S.  Maxwell, when on our campus  several  weeks ago, spoke on  the same  topic.  
Two years ago, Crandall  held  a writers'  conference on  our campus  in an effort  to stimulate journalism in  the  Union  College territory.  Since  that  time  more  emphasis  has been  put on writing  in  the  academies;  nothing  much  has been  done on the  college  level.  
Editor Crandall  bemoans  the  fact  that  our church does  not have a school  of journalism  and that  many  of our col- leges do not  offer a journalism  major.  No one at  Union  College is  even graduating  with  a journalism  minor.  
It is  true  that  we are offered Freshman  Composition,  Advanced Composition,  one news writing  class  each se- mester, and Creative  Writing  every other  year, but  what  is  this in  view  of the  rising  "cry for trained  writers"?  
It Could Be Worse  
Often we hear complaints  about  our system  of having  to pay $1 for every chapel  skip  beyond the  two  allowed  skips before we can take  our final  examinations.  Naturally  we complain.  It  hurts  our pocketbooks.  But  after  hearing  what regulations  other  colleges are making,  we can be glad  our rules  are not  more  strict  than  they  are.  
According to  an editorial  in  The Sligonian, the  paper  from Columbia  Union  College,  Salem  College  lias  a new  regulation in  regard to  chapel  skips  that  goes into  effect  in the  fall  of 1962.  
The new regulation  states  that  for each extra  chapel  skip above the  allotted  five,  the  total  grade point  average  for the  semester  will  be lowered  one quality  point.  
For example:  John Doe is  enrolled  for 16 hours of  classwork. At  the  end of the  semester  he has a B average.  This gives  him  32 quality  points  or a grade point  average  of 2.0.  
John has taken  two  excess chapel  skips. So we subtract  2 from  32 which  gives  him  30 quality  points.  Divide  30 by  16 and he has a grade point  average of 1.87. This  has cut  his grade from  a B to  a C.  
Salem College's  administration  points  out  that  "These  assemblies should  be, and are the  high  points  of each  week's scholastic  program.  They  are important  factors  in  the development  of character."

Students weren't  the  only ones confused at  convocation  last Friday  when Dr. Firth  announced, "School  is  not  out  yet, please  hold  on to  a good program  over the  weekend.  
It seems  as though  President  Bieber  handed him  three  announcements, one of which  simply  stated,  "hold  on to  your programs,"  meaning  that  students  should  keep their  programs over the  week end because of  a limited  supply.  
Afterwards, Dr. Firth  was overheard saying  to  Presi- dent Bieber,  "Why don't  you make  that  kind  of announce- ment?" It  really  wasn't  meant  to  be so bad after  all.

Intellectuals Organize  
At New Mexico School  
(ACP)—A group of students  
with a composite grade-point aver- 
age of 3.7 have organized the  
Alpha Society to create a more  
intellectual atmosphere on the  
Eastern New Mexico University 
Campus.  
They plan to create a studious  
air through discussion, research 
and scientific projects, says The  
Chase.  
The group proposes that the  
third floor of a campus building  
bo reserved for students who want  
to study. A tutoring service in  
science, math, history, English,  
psychology, philosophy, and music  
will be offered.  
Included in proposed reforms is  
the society's opposition to athletic  
scholarships and complacency on 
campus.

"Good Night, Pol"  
Replaces Display  
(ACP)-Students at North Texas  
State University are finding new  
ways to respond to a recent official 
statement frowning on public dis- 
play of affection in dormitory 
adieus.  
One night about 30 couples were  
congregated in front of a girls'  
dorm, reports The Campus Chat.  
When the lights blinked, signal- 
ing the girls to come in, everyone 
started shaking hands and saying,  
"Thank you for a great evening,  
pal, see ya around."  
Then they all had a big laugh,  
and the men departed.  
L editors  
Dear Editor:  
I know you are always inter- 
ested in your alumni. I also know  
how poor some of them are at  
writing and how modest some of  
them are when they do write. I  
have two sons who are Union Col- 
lege alumni, Robert Eugene Lee  
'50, and Victor Ralph Lee '51. I  
am sure you would be interested  
in their work.  
Robert Lee is a project engineer  
at Texas Instruments in Dallas,  
Texas. He was responsible for  
designing a n d developing the  
Ultra-linear frequency-modulated  
transmitter which was used in the 
space capsules to bring back from  
outer space all the information  
regarding the astronauts such as  
the voice, pulse, heartbeat and  
respiration, and also the general  
condition in the capsule and its  
temperature.  
Robert has been working at re- 
search and development in elec- 
trical engineering since getting his  
Master's degree from the Univer- 
sity of Louisiana in 1952. He is  
also at the present time one of  
the elders of the Dallas Central 
Church.  
Victor Ralph Lee i.s carrying on  
,i medical practice in Mcrryvillc, 
Louisiana. He is .the only doctor  
in the town of 1500 and within  
a radius of 20 miles. There is a  
community hospital under his care  
general practice. He and the hosp  
tcr with a 150 foot tower so he  
and tho hospital can keep in touch 
of fifty miles.  
Victor Ralph graduated from  
Louisiana State Medical School in  
1956, spent three years with the  
U. S. Public Health Service, and  
then went lo Merryville to prac- 
tice. There arc no other Adventists 
in the community so he and his  
wife have been very active in  
missionary work and evangelism.  
Very sincerely yours,

Faith for Today  

Genllenessr A Christian Qualify,  
Shows A Person's Nearness To God  
by Steve  Gifford  
Today I found a text that seemed in direct contradiction to the  
rest of the Holy Scriptures. The text is found in Phillipians 4:5—  
"Let your moderation be known unto all men." At the moment I 
pictured the application of the verse in this manner: Some so-called  
Christians are very proud of themselves, bccause they stay sober,  
don't nm around, refrain from cursing and beating their wife and  
children. Does Paul actually mean that people like this, who are, at  
least on the surface, moderate, have the license and even the  
justification to brag and publish their so-called  moderation?  
Curiosity prompted me to study the text. I found the Greek  
word that was translated "moderation" meant "mildness" in my Greek  
lexicon. If the text is more correctly translated, "Let your mildness  
be known unto all  men," I could see more problems. A synonym of  
mildness is softness, and softness is invariably associated with femi- 
ninity. Is this what the Christian is supposed to display—feminine  
characteristics?  
Few men intend to be a soft, mild individual. Femininity is a  
wonderful attribute for womanhood, but tragically, sometimes as- 
sociated only with the above two characteristics. This interpretation  
of the text subtly indicates that the Christian must be soft, mild,  
and passive, and then proclaim this idea to the world.  
Then I found the answer to my question in the Phillips transla- 
tion of Phillipians 4:5. "Have a reputation for gentleness." One's  
reputation doesn't have to be proclaimed to the world. A reputation  
goes ahead, and broadcasts qualifications and liabilities before a  
formal appearance and introduction. We don't have to proclaim our  
attributes. We don't have to tell the world we're a Christian. We  
only have to develop a Christian reputation, and let reputation speak 
for itself.  
Webster graphically pictures a gentle person as one who is  
"well-born, honorable, and refined in manners." Gentleness is the  
attribute that doesn't sacrifice masculinity or femininity. Mysteriously,  
it adds to either quality. Certainly the  reward of gentleness is a  
well-born, honorable, mannered Son of God. We as Christians must 
be gentle, realize the benefits of gentleness, and then allow our 
reputation to publish a genuine nearness to God.

Bear Stories Not- Blarney  
Confirms Frosh Camper  
by Ardis  Dick  
Bear stories aren't obselete, and  
freshman June Lackey thinks that  
you really should take them into  
consideration when planning that 
summer trip.  
June says, "If Someone told me  
the story, I probably wouldn't be-
lieve them either, but I have the 
scar to prove it's true."  
Last summer June went to Yel- 
lowstone National Park with her  
roommate, freshman Glenda Watts,  
and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bill  
Watts of Lakin, Kansas.  
This was June's first trip to Yel- 
lowstone, so she and Glenda plan-
ned to sleep on the ground while 
the others of their group stayed  
in the station wagon near by.  
"Thank goodness  for the tent,"  
June says now.  
Near the Watt's camp, Mr. Ken- 
neth Boster, of Los Angeles, and 
uncle of Mary Harlan, senior at  
Union College, set up his camp.  
About midnight, he heard the click 
of a bear trap that he knew was 
near by. Overcome by curiosity, 
ho went to investigate. He saw a 
small cub in the trap. His interest 
was interrupted almost immediate- 
ly, however, by the sight of a 
large grizzly bear bearing down  
onto the pup tent in which June  
and Glenda were sleeping.  
June and Glenda were awakened  
when tlie tent fell on them. Glenda 
felt a great weight on her, and 
could hardly breathe, she says. The 
grizzly tore through the tent, and 
both girls looked into the furry 
face.  
June says, "I somehow felt that  
I would be safer if I lay still, but  
finally I turned my head again to 
see. It was then that the bear  
knockcd mc down." Glenda was  
unable to move or speak because 
of the weight of the bear on her.  
Tlie bear appeared very angry,  
tearing through both the sleeping  
bags and blankets. June moved  
again, and suddenly she felt the  
bear tear the flesh on her back.  

The bear also bit her; but she was 
only bruised.  
All had happened so suddenly  
that Mr. Boster had only been able 
to stand and watch. Finally, he 
rushed at the bear, waving his 
arms and shouting. It did not  
scare the bear, but the noise at- 
tracted many other campers. June 
doesn't remember how the ranger  
was called, but feels he probably  
heard the commotion.  
The ranger took June to the  
camp dispensary, but the nurse  
derided that the cut was too deep  
for her to take care of. She called  
the ambulance, and June was taken  
to the hospital in Mammoth  
Springs, Wyoming.  
Six stitches  were taken in June's  
back, and "I felt them all," June  
recalls. "I will always have the  
scar to prove the story,  too," she  
adds.  
The ranger, who identified tlie  
bear as a  grizzly, said that this is  
only the third time in the history 
of the park that a bear has attack- 
ed any of the guests.  
M / I, l' V  
The ranger also explained the  
reason for the trap that caught  
tho cub. The rangers set the traps, 
and every  time a bear is caught,  
lie is marked. If he is caught the  
third time, he is killed. Tlie reason 
for this is that if the bear is caught  
three times the rangers feel that 
he is becoming too friendly and is  
likely to harm park visitors.  
The grizzily that attacked June  
kept returning to the camp until  
they released her cub, and then  
she and the cub went off into the 
woods. "They are probably there  
still," June said.  
The Watts family followed June  
to Mammoth Springs, and camped 
there the rest of the vacation. "It 
sort of broke up camp," June says 
with a smile. "The neighbors all  
moved too."
