Fowler attends fall session of GC committee President R. W. Fowler attend- ed the annual Fall Council of the General Conference, held at Tor- onto, Ontario, Canada, October 9-16. "The main emphasis of the Council was on evangelism," Fowler stated. "It was reported that in two areas of the South American division 10,000 young people were baptized on one Sab- bath." The questions of methods of improving and increasing the evangelistic program were dis- cussed. Attending the meeting were members of the General Confer- ence Committee plus the overseas divisions' presidents, treasurers and secretaries. The annual budget for the overseas divisions was also de- cided at the Council. Dr. Fowler notes, "It was the largest budget ever granted by the General Conference for assistance to the overseas divisions. Over $46 mil- lion was approved." A termination date for publi- cation of The Youth's Instructor, a publication previously geared for Christian young people, was also set at this meeting. Each of the eight mornings opened with a devotional from 9 to 10 a.m. Until noon the coun- cil discussed business matters. After dinner committees con- vened until 4. Then another busi- ness session was held for the en- tire group. In the evenings the overseas divisions gave reports. Nicol Smith will show typicol scenes from the cultures of Chile, such as the above scene of in his travelogue Saturday night in the Union College gym. 'San Jose del Car- • Clock Tower Vol. XLIII Union College, Lincoln, Nebr., October 25, 1968 No. four UC librarians attend convention "You and your task in Nebras- ka's libraries" was the topic of the 70th annual convention of the Nebraska Library Association held at the Cornhusker Hotel in Lincoln, October 17-18. Miss Floda Smith, Miss Gertrude Huy- gens, Miss Chloe Foutz and Mr. century-old youth publication announces termination date The Youth's Instructor, the oldest religious journal in North America published and remain- ing under its original title, will cease publication next year, ac- cording to an action taken Oc- tober 11 at the Seventh-day Ad- ventist Biennial Council in Tor- onto, Canada. The church's official body voted to meet changing youth interests with a three-pronged action. First, The Youth's Instructor is scheduled for demise at the end of 1969. It was published for the first time in 1852. Secondly, at that date a new publication beamed at the secondary school level and including Bible lessons for young people will be intro- duced. Lastly, publication of yet another periodical which will be beamed at college age youth is being studied. Publishers of the new publica- tions will be the Review and Her- ald Publishing Association of Washington, D.C., who now pub- lish The Youth's Instructor. Name, format and frequency of publication for the two period- icals have been referred to a study commission. The commis- sion will include representatives from the publishing house and from the education, Sabbath school and youth departments of the General Conference of Sev- enth-day Adventists. Reasons for the change, offi- cials say, was a falling off of circulation of the Instructor as well as a need for a medium of inter-campus exchange among colleges and academies of the de- nomination. Church officials an- ticipate that the overseas youth audience as well as North Amer- ica, will be considered in the new publications. Present editor of The Youth's Instructor is Walter T. Crandall of Takoma Park, Washington, D.C. Editors for the new publica- tions have not yet been named. college laundry boasts increases in profit sales Changes in procedure have greatly improved the efficiency of the college laundry since it moved into the industrial com- plex last summer, according to Mr. George Lewis, laundry man- ager. Last year a lack of storage space made pickup and delivery service on specified days neces- sary. The new system provides for an even flow of work throughout the week, relieving congestion. Students now receive 48-hour service at any time. Elimination of the pickup and delivery system saves the laun- dry 16 man hours of employee time each week. As a result of these improve- ments the laundry has been able to increase its volume of business by 26% over last year, rennrt.s Lewis. DeForest Nesmith, Union College librarians, were among those in attendance. The two-day convention fea- tured numerous outstanding au- thorities in library science, in- cluding Dr. Quincy Mumford, Li- brarian of Congress, Washington, D.C. In his keynote address en- titled "The Degree of Differ- ence," Dr. Mumford emphasized that in spite of ever increasing mechanization and use of com- puters there will always be a need for libraries and librarians. Dr. Lester Asheim, director, Of- fice of Library Education, Amer- ican Library Association, Chi- cago, delivered the luncheon ad- dress, in which he emphasized the need for different levels of trained personnel in a library. He stated that along with the professional librarian with the M.A., various levels of supporting staff are needed, including li- brary clerk, library technical as- sistant and library assistant, each having his own duties to perform. At the meeting of school li- brarians on Friday, the discus- sion centered on revision of standards for school libraries or "Educational Media Centers," as they are now called. Miss Chloe Foutz was acting chairman of the college and uni- versity section of the association and presided at the general luncheon on Thursday. Approximately 30 exhibitors were present, representing book companies, publishers and school supply houses. Convention at- tendance was estimated at 300 with representatives from uni- versity libraries, public libraries, college libraries and library trus- tees. According to Miss Smith, the convention was "a very practical and worthwhile program." Union College has invited members of the college and uni- versity library staffs to hold their spring meeting on the Union College campus. Miss Smith states: "We are looking forward to entertaining this group in the spring as this will be their first visit to Union College." Smith lecture, film to portray modern Chile Nicol Smith will present an all-color film lecture on Chile Saturday night, October 26, at 8 in the college gymnasium. Chile is over 3,000 miles long, yet averages only 100 miles in width. The northern third of the country is said to be the "world's driest desert," where rainfall has never been recorded. In the southern third of Chile, however, rainfall is so great that it has been referred to as "one of the rainiest regions of the earth." One highpoint of Smith's film will be the climb of the "Christ of the Andes" by riding the world famous Trans-Andean Railway. Nicol Smith has a reputation as an explorer. He is the author of five books; the most recent is Golden Doorway to Tibet. During World War II Lieutenant Col- onel Nicol Smith was a secret agent for the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) in both Thai- land and Vichy, France. How- ever, his interest in exploration is not that of the archeologist or historian, for he is interested chiefly in people. A native of California, Nicol Smith spends his time at his fishing lodge in the High Sierras when not producing films or lec- turing.

Dr. Melvin Hill, Mr. Elmer Testerman, Mr. Robert Walters, Mr. Daniel Shultz and Miss Na- omi Jungling attended. According to Dr. Hill nine small colleges in Nebraska par- ticipate in the U.S.O.E. program. A conference is held annually. The colleges take turns hosting the conference. Union College was the host last year. The theme of the conference this year was aesthetics and ap- preciation. "We received a lift in realizing that many schools are trying to progress by developing in their students an appreciation for the finer things in life," stated Dr. Hill. "We are striving here at Union to do the same in helping students to realize there Pogue, election board urge students to vote in mock election Tuesday A mock election of the candi- dates for President of the United States will be held next Tuesday, October 29, in the foyer of the administration building, accord- ing to Jerry Pogue, ASB associate vice-president in charge of elec- tions. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. The ballot is an exact copy of the official one to be used in the-November general election. Pogue feels that there are sev- eral reasons for having a mock election on campus. He says, "College students are more in- volved in national politics, as was proved in Choice '68, which was held on all college campuses. Many college students are too young to vote and this election gives them a means of expressing their beliefs and opinions. When national policies affect the col- lege-age group as directly as they do today, students are apt to be interested in the Presidential election because it is at the Pres- idential level that the policies are changed." The ASB Election Board would like you to vote for the candi- date of your choice. is more in life than the everyday mundane accomplishments." The two speakers for the con- ference were Dr. Dale Jorgenson, chairman of the division of fine arts, Northeast Missouri State College, Kirksville, Missouri, and Dr. Archie A. Jones, dean of the conservatory of music of the University of Missouri at Kansas City. concert season to begin soon The 1968-69 concert season of the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra Association will be initiated Oc- tober 29, featuring the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra conducted by Leo Kapp. Other concerts during the sea- son will present the following: on November 26, Phyllis Curtain, soprano and Lincoln Symphony Orchestra; January 21, 1969, Pro Musica Group, instrumentalists; February 4, Lincoln Symphony Orchestra, Leo Kapp, conductor; March 25, Oliver Buswell, violin- ist; April 15, audition winners with the Lincoln Symphony Or- chestra.

After casting their ballots for President, they will feel satisfied that they have done their democratic duty even though they don't think that their vote is worth anything in the mass and tangle of modern American politics. In spite of what the voting public may believe, one single vote carries a powerful punch. We may think that our vote, cast among millions, cannot possibly count. But it does! Let us look back Into the past to find just a few examples of how one vote was important. On an historic day in May, 1765, a fiery young lawyer, Patrick Henry, read his now-famous resolution against the Stamp Act. It was passed by just one single vote. This famous resolution was the first step toward American independence. Did you know that a bill was drawn up to make German the of- ficial language of our newly-independent country? This bill was presented to Congress and had much popular support. The historic bill was defeated in Congress by one single vote and English was kept as the official language of the United States. By one single vote in the House of Representatives John Quincy Adams became the sixth President of the United States. A special commission decided that Rutherford B. Hayes, al- though a loser in the popular vote, was a winner in the electoral col- lege by one single vote. Truman won the presidency over Dewey by just one vote per pre- cinct. This election rocked the nation. And this list could go on and on. National elections are won or lost by the voting public. Your vote could swing an election. Your vote is your direct voice in your country's affairs. We, the people of this country, have some serious homework to do before we go to the polls this year. If we really want to make a democracy work in this world of turmoil, we must look ahead to the elections. We must take a careful look at each candidate and then vote intelligently on November 5 for the presidential team that can make America a better place in which to live. Jerry Pogue, ASB Associate Vice-President actions and words indicate attitudes Groups of students sat poring over city newspapers devouring the news of Jacqueline Kennedy's recent marriage to Aristotle Onas- sis. Others studied diligently. Some just whispered, talked aloud, giggled and laughed. Amid the rattling of papers, clatter of books and pencils and buzz of conversation several speakers, young and old, attempted to give the students added insights into activities pertinent to their lives. No, this wasn't a scene in the student center. The speakers were not TV broadcasters and announcers. This was the scene of Monday morning's chapel. This took place in God's house. Shocking? Many students do not even think of the church as God's house and a place in which God has commanded reverence. It is simply a place where they must go every Monday morning at 11 or pay a dollar. Oh, maybe on Sabbath they think they should be quiet at church —simply because when they were younger their mothers shushed them and they still have this "childhood hang-over." However, Mon- day is another thing. But it makes no difference whether it is Tuesday, Friday or Monday; the church is God's house every day of the week and an at- mosphere of reverence is to pervade. This is God's specific intent. We find that less than one hour each week is spent in chapel. It seems that supposed men and women should be aware enough to realize that during this one hour, or less, they can find things to do that are fitting for the church sanctuary. If one simply does not feel that he will benefit in some way by what the speaker offers (which is doubtful, because we can gain from anything if we want to) he can at least find an activity fit- ting for church. Think of who God Is. Are you going to read the newspaper or your textbook or add to the buzz session in the upper balconv in His house Monday? new system allows students option of courses graded only as pass, fail Cambridge, Mass. (IJ.)—Har- vard's Faculty of Arts and Sci- ences will permit each student to take one course each year mark- ed only Pass or Fail. The normal course load is four courses per year. The student's remaining three courses would be graded with A, B, C, D—with pluses and minuses—and E (fail). The new plan extends to all students the option of ungraded courses previously available to some students in freshman sem- inars, in departmental tutorials and in independent study. Each instructor will decide whether to accept Pass-Fail stu- dents in his own course, and whether to limit the number of his Pass-Fail students. Each de- partment will determine whether Pass-Fail courses may be count- ed toward the field of concentra- tion. To take a course for a simple Pass or Fail mark, a student must announce his decision by the fourth Monday of the term. He cannot select a course as Pass-Fail later in the term, and cannot later shift a course from graded to Pass-Fail or from Pass-Fail to graded. The Pass-Fail option will be reviewed by the faculty in 1970. The Harvard Pass-Fall option differs from Pass-Fall systems college newspaper editors vote Nixon as winner of next presidential election MINNEAPOLIS— (ACP)—Richard Nixon will be the next pres- ident of the United States according to 91 percent of the nation's college newspaper editors. The opinion survey conducted by Associated Collegiate Press was based on a representative mail poll of 7 percent of college editors selected by the research division of the school of journalism and mass communication at the University of Minnesota. Criteria in- cluded regional location, circulation and frequency of publication. Editors classified themselves as 46 percent independent, 30 per- cent Republican and 24 percent Democrat. If the election had been held during the second week of October, 50 percent indicated they would vote for Nixon, 37 percent for Hubert Humphrey, 1 y2 percent each for George Wallace and Dick Gregory and 10 percent undecided. Only 7 percent expect Humphrey to be elected. Based on individual party affiliation the survey Indicated the following results: 1. If the presidential election were held today, I would vote for: REPUBLICAN—30 % Nixon 83% Humphrey 6% Wallace 4% Gregory 0% Undecided 7% DEMOCRAT—24% Nixon 20% Humphrey 64% Wallace 0% Gregory 8% Undecided 8% INDEPENDENT—46 % Nixon 43% Humphrey 30% Wallace 4% Gregory 2% Undecided 17% No one 4% ALL CLASSIFICATIONS Nixon 50% Humphrey 37% Wallace 1.5% Gregory 1.5% Undecided or no one 10% 2: I believe the following man will be elected president: REPUBLICANS Nixon 99% Humphrey 1% Undecided 0% DEMOCRATS Nixon 80% Humphrey 16% Undecided 4% INDEPENDENTS Nixon 96% Humphrey 4% Undecided 0% ALL CLASSIFICATIONS Nixon 91% Humphrey 7% Undecided 2% recently adopted at Princeton and at Yale.

Panels of outstanding scien- tists appointed by the Research Council will evaluate applica- tions of all candidates. Final se- lection will be made by the Foun- dation, with awards to be an- nounced on March 15, 1969. Graduate fellowships will be awarded for study in the math- ematical, physical, medical, bi- ological, engineering and social sciences, and In the history and philosophy of science. Awards will not be made in clinical ed- ucation or business fields now for work toward medical or law degrees. Applicants for the graduate awards will be required to take the Graduate Record Examina- tions designed to test scientific aptitude and achievement. The examinations, administered by the Educational Testing Service, will be given on January 18, 1969, at designated centers through- out the United States and In cer- tain countries.

Gold's department store fur- nished clothing for the event. Fashions included styles for sports, dating, school, church and after five. Gold's fashion moderator explained designs and trends in wearing apparel. The gymnasium was trans- formed to fit the occasion by the installation of a runway extend- ing from the stage. "By use of this runway Kappa Theta wom- en could better view the fash- ions," stated President Ruthita Jensen. Linda Brennan, Suzy Moline, Carol Roberts, Linda Smith, Heidi Trout, Irma Cancel, Sharon Williams, Donna Stone, Connie Wall, Dee Dee Weise, Cindy Lankford and Linda Deibel mod- eled approximately 40 different fashions. Refreshments were served af- ter the show. room. The following two days are spent in giving post-operative nursing care. Patients are chosen at ran- dom by the nursing teacher. The instructor had no idea who Mr. Howard Williams was when she gave my assignment. The other two students had been assigned female patients and I had been assigned a 40-year-old male. I went early to visit my pa- tient, never suspecting who he might really be. He had wished to remain anonymous while here but someone recognized him when he was being admitted and it didn't take long for the news to break. Since I had come early, I did not hear the news until the next morning at 6:45 a.m. My first duty was to get a nursing history in order to write his nursing care plan, and when I asked him his occupation he said he was unemployed. I said, "What kind of work do you normally do?" He jokingly re- plied, "I'm a sheepherder." That set off my curiosity. He looked clean and was clean shaven, but his hair was rather long. He had it combed down in front and wore dark glasses, so it was im- possible for me to see the color of his eyes. He had on a pair of tweed trousers, with a maroon coat and a pair of black velvet house slippers. I noticed his hands were smooth and did not appear to be used to hard work. His voice was soft and his gram- mar very good. I knew this man was no ordinary sheepherder. The fact that he was so evasive bothered me. I knew there was much more to him than I'd ever learn about him. As I walked past the nursing station toward his room, the in- structor, Miss Elsie Warden, stopped me and said, "Do you know who your patient is?" I was surprised because it had been bothering me and I said, "No, who?'' She said "It is Andy by Karla Krampert Heating the kitchen by turning on the oven and touring the Yeats country in Ireland on bi- cycle are only a few of the expe- riences R. Ivan Zbaraschuk re- lates concerning the two years he and his wife spent recently in England. Zbaraschuk and his wife Ila returned from England on August 21 of this year and are presently on the teaching staff of the English Department at Union College. Zbaraschuk claims Saskatch- ewan, Canada, as his home. After spending one year at Canadian Union College, he transferred to Walla Walla College in Washing- ton where he graduated in 1963. He spent the following two years working on his M.A. in English at the University of Illinois. After he earned his M.A., Zbaraschuk transferred to the University of Missouri and married Ila Russell, a 1964 graduate of Walla Walla College who was working on her master's degree in journalism at Missouri. A visiting professor in jour- nalism who was also the director of England's oldest newspaper weekly became acquainted with Ila at Missouri. C.W.H. Aldridge of the Allied Press in England in- Williams." I thought, "Who is Andy Williams?" I had not watched TV in so long I only vaguely remembered. I mentioned to Barbara White- head who my patient was and she said, "Don't you know who Andy Williams is?" Then she named some of his songs and it all came to me. "Moon River" has always been a favorite of mine and I just couldn't get it out of my mind all the time I cared for him. I never let on that I knew him until the third day when it was obvious that everyone knew. During his stay at the hospital he read constantly. He appar- ently was a rapid reader since he could read a book in a very short period of time. He was al- ways engrossed in reading and when spoken to, he would not answer until he had finished the sentence. Someone sent a huge arrange- ment of mums in a large basket- type container with a large bow. He asked if I could find another vase, since he wanted to rear- range his flowers. He then re- moved all the extra foliage and placed the flowers in the vase. He said to throw away the bas- ket, leaves and bow because they looked too much like a funeral to him. He did the same thing with a dozen red roses. On the last day I cared for him, he thanked me for the good care he had received. He was very anxious to return home since he was going on tour and was to make an appearance in Anaheim, California, on October 18. He will be making his Christ- mas show for TV on December 18 and wanted everyone to watch it. I hope his impression of Porter Memorial Hospital was such that he will recommend us to his friends and will return again if he should ever need to be hos- pitalized. He definitely made a good impression on all those who cared for him. vited the Zbaraschuks to come to England where he offered Ila a job on one of his newspapers. Ila hoped to also do some work on her master's thesis while they were in England, and Ivan plan- ned to teach school. In the summer of 1966 the Zbaraschuks drove across the continental U.S. to New England, where they sold their car in order to have funds for their passage to England. After a nine- day voyage, which Zbaraschuk describes as "perfect bliss be- cause the freighter we were on was heavily loaded, mainly with dog food, so that the ship did not pitch or roll very much," the Zbaraschuks arrived in London on August 14. Immigration difficulties plagued them at first because Ivan did not have the required work permit, since the Britsh De- partment of Education had not as yet approved him for teaching school. The Zbaraschuks were in- formed that they would have to leave Britain by August 30, only two weeks after their arrival. Ivan managed to obtain the proper work permit, however, and the Zbaraschuks were able to take up residence in the small town of Peterborough, fifty miles from London, where Ila worked as woman's page editor of the local newspaper. Ivan taught at the secondary school. During school vacation periods they had opportunities to visit other parts of Britain and to en- joy one of their favorite pas- times, that of visiting English cathedrals. Some of their trips led them to areas connected with literary figures, such as their trip to Sommersby, Tennyson's birth- place. Easter vacation in 1968 found the Zbaraschuks crossing by ferry to Ireland, where they toured the Yeats country on bi- cycles they had rented for sixty cents per day. In the summer of 1967, the Zbaraschuks left Peterborough and moved to London where Ila did research for her master's thesis about the history of the British training scheme for jour- nalism. Ivan taught the liberal arts classes at a technical college in London. For Christmas the Zbaraschuks went to a small town where they lived in a little stone cottage and visited some Seventh-day Ad- ventist friends who introduced them to a traditional English Christmas—Yorkshire pudding and all. England's chilly winters, com- bined with the universal absence of central heating in buildings, posed a problem for the Zbaras- chuks, mainly that of keeping warm. English homes are tradi- tionally warmed by a gas or elec- tric heater set in the fireplace of the living room. During their first winter in Peterborough Zbaraschuk hoped that the sin- gle heater would be sufficient, so that they could avoid the ex- pense of a second heater for the bedroom. Zbaraschuk underes- timated the penetrating damp- ness of the winter's chill, how- ever. When the clothes in the bedroom closet began to get musty from the cold dampness, Zbaraschuk decided that addi- tional heat was necessary in the bedroom. During the winter in London he finally bought a small kerosene heater for the bedroom. The two heaters, plus heat gained in the kitchen by keeping the oven turned on, helped to keep them warm for the remainder of the winter. Zbaraschuk read voluminously during the evenings while he was in England. He read an average of four to five books per week dealing with literature and liter- ary criticism. He is not certain which area of English literature he would like to concentrate on in working for a doctorate. He says that literature is important because it "trains the imagina- tion." "Today their imagination is starved," said Zbaraschuk. "Trashy literature exercises the imagination but does not train it. Good literature by its very na- ture calls upon the rest of one's faculties and calls upon the imagination to fit into the rest of one's thinking and to coor- dinate with other mental capaci- ties."

Mr. Latessa, who graduated from Union College in 1961, was the captain of Union's touring tumbling team while he was a student here. Assisting him in coaching are Mr. Wayne Fleming, chairman of the department of physical education, and Miss Bertha Reel, instructor in phys- ical education. "Anyone with aptitude or ex- perience is welcome to join the team," emphasized Miss Reel after commenting that since Oc- tober 10, the date of organization, nursing curriculum changes to affiliate VA hospital in Lincoln The Curriculum Committee approved a new semester plan for the Denver campus on Octo- ber 9. This plan will become ef- fective, in part, by September of 1969 and will be completely oper- ative by the fall of 1970. Due to a requirement of the Nebraska State Board of Nursing, the Clinical Division campus had been on the quarter system since the inception of the nursing pro- gram in 1946. However, in recent years it has been felt that it would be more advantageous to students, faculty and the entire program if both campuses were on the same plan. For the past year the nursing faculty has been studying its curriculum so that it might implement this change. The new program will include a clinical nursing course in the sophomore year with clinical lab- oratory experience at the Veter- ans' Administration Hospital in Lincoln. Students will begin wearing uniforms in the soph- omore year and will receive their caps in February. Instead of two full summer sessions on the Den- ver campus the student will have one summer session on the Lin- coln campus and during this time upper division general ed- ucation courses will be taken. Two academic years will be spent on the Denver campus. During the junior year the stu- dent will alternate semesters taking Nursing of Adults I and Maternal and Infant Nursing. In the senior year the nursing courses that will be offered are Community and Mental Health Nursing. The faculty and students both believe that there are many ad- vantages to the new plan and are looking forward to its im- plementation, according to Miss Ruth Haller, chairman of the nursing department.

W. Rowland. As headquarters for the nurs- ing department, this area will be made into offices for Miss Ruth Haller, nursing department chairman, and Mrs. Dorothy Russell, instructor in nursing. A third office will house the Lincoln SDA Credit Union. Mrs. Colleen Gilbert is the full-time bookkeeper. Remodeling plans include in- stalling a new ceiling, paneling and painting of the walls, and partitioning of offices. Dean Rowland said, "Remodeling will begin as soon as the bookblndery has finished moving into the In- dustrial Complex. This will free the electrician to rearrange the wiring in the proposed office space." All remodeling will be done by the maintenance and engi- neering departments on this campus, stated Dean Rowland. Miss Haller expressed her views about the project by saying that she is "very anxious to see the finished project and hopes it will be finished by next month." there are 15 men and six women on the team. The work-out times are 12 noon to 1 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays in the college gymnasium. The men will be working on the parallel bars, rings, mats, high bar, horse and trampoline as well as doing free exercise routines. The women will work on the mats, uneven bars, the balance beam, trampoline, the hoop and tall and will do free exercise routines. Next semester these activities may be offered as a credit course in physical education, according to Miss Reel. Academies in this Union have already made re- quests for the tumbling team to come and perform at their schools. Your favorite button-down by Icntleij Now in Permanent Press Yes, It's true!
