4 T1 r thr VOLUME XXIV UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, OCTOBER 22, 1948 NUMBER 2 4 Campaign to Begin Monday Successful Devotional Week Nears End Elder William Fagal Counsels with Students; Youth's Personal Need of Christ Emphasized Next Monday, October 25, the annual campaign for CLOCK Tow- ER subscriptions will be launched during the chapel hour. This year the student body will be divided into two groups, the men and the women. Don Hessel will be group leader for the "Braves," as they have been designated, with Bill Putnam assisting in the boys' dor- mitory, Gene Armour in the vil- lage, and Elder Gordon the faculty men. The "Squaws" will be on hand to offer plenty of competition with Florence Oss as general lead- er, Helen Schwartzkopf in the girls' dormitory, Shirley Burton in the village, and Miss Smith with the faculty women. The emphasis in this campaign is to be placed upon individual at- tainment. There will be a prize within easy reach of everyone who gets a certain number of subs as determined by the campaign lead- ers. It is felt that a smaller personal goal made tangible to every stu- dent will be a more effective in- ducement than offering a prize to only those who obtain a large num- ber of subs. Your CLOCK TOWER staff is hard at work to produce a bigger and better paper for you this year. As you will notice, this is the first of STORK PARADE David Jack, weight 7 lb. 2 oz., was born on October 10 to Jack and Winifred (Whitnack) Jester of Lincoln, Nebraska. The arrival of a 7 lb. 14Y2 oz. girl. Linda Jean, was announced by Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Armour on Sep- tember 20 at Lincoln, Nebraska. the six-page editions. After a suc- cessful campaign, it is planned to continue publishing an insert to provide more space for more news This is to be one of the promises as set forth by campaign manager, Bob Hamilton. One question is in the minds of your CLOCK TOWER staff and cam- paign members. Where is the cup? The girls were the victors last year and will be working to add a sec- ond year toward the three-year re- quirement for permanent posses- sion of the cup. The boys will be equally as anxious to gain control of that honored emblem. But what still remains a mystery is the cup's present hiding place. A reward of 500 pages of outside reading is of- fered to anyone revealing its whereabouts. When asked for an inspirational statement to spur the students and faculty on, Mr. Hamilton said, "The only inspiration we need is the assurance of having a bigger and better paper to meet the varied interests of the largest circulation Union has ever known." So whether you are a Nemaha Brave or a Chipultapec Squaw, get out of that wigwam and start send- ing those smoke signals to the folks at home. There is no place for smallness in God's plans for Christians; rath- er He has made provision for vic- tory, dominion and kingship now, and eventually for eternal life with Him. This was the opinion ex- pressed by Elder Arthur Maxwell, author and editor, at the College View church Sabbath afternoon, October 16. "God has just one thought for man — greatness," Elder Maxwell stated. Illustrating his theme by re- ferring to modern methods of trav- el, he said that just as the Queen Elizabeth was not designed for coastal trade or the Zephyr trains for trips to Omaha, Christians are not designed for littleness. "In Eden man forgot that he was made a little lower than the angels, and sank lower than beasts. This called for the plan of salvation to restore in man the glory of God in the soul," Elder Maxwell said. Elder Maxwell, who edits the Signs of the Times, is en route to Denver for the annual fall confer- ence of the denomination's leaders from all over the world. Concluding his remarks, Elder Maxwell told the many Union Col- lege students in the audience that God will hold them to greatness. "You dare not waste a moment or squander a precious privilege," he said. "You are designed for great- ness; for higher than 'the highest human thought is God's plan for you."

The great army of youth who were there heard thrilling messages in song and sermon. Charles Keymer, singing evangelist of the Colorado Conference, led the singing. Elder E. W. Dunbar, M.V. secretary of the General Conference, and E. B. Hare, associate Sabbath school secretary of the General Confer- ence, told many experiences of how the Lord guides in His work. The highlight of the session was the Voice of Prophecy group, Elder H. M. S. Richards and the King's Heralds. "Arise and Go" was the summons given by Elder Richards during the Sabbath morning hour. He impressed us that God expects us to do His bidding now; a few minutes waiting may be too late. Hearts were stirred as the quartet sang "You Must Open the Door," and many renewed their consecra- tion to God. Several from Union attended, in- cluding Mr. Abel and the Standard Bearers quartet. Others included Mr. and Mrs. William Courtney, Mr. and Mrs. Paul DeBooy, Mr. and Mrs. Duane Green, Dale Mc- Clure, Bill Gibb, Grace Duffield. Plans were revealed for a North- ern Union Youth's Congress to be held next summer in Minneapolis. Union College Plays Host To Sigma Delta Epsilon Twenty-four members of Sigma Delta Epsilon, national fraternity for graduate women in scientific re- search, met in the home economics department for their October meet- ing. Mrs. Frank Marsh, president of the University of Nebraska's Iota Chapter, and Mrs. Vernon Dunn, chairman of the home eco- nomics department, served as host- esses to the group. Following din- ner in the home economics rooms, a tour was conducted through the science building. Russell Strom, senior from Min- neapolis, Minnesota, is the recently elected editor-in-chief of the Union College CLOCK TOWER, student newspaper. Mr. Strom is working toward the degree of B.A. in reli- gion, with a second ,major in his- tory and a minor in speech. Before coming to Union College in the fall of 1946, the new editor served forty-two months in the army, with overseas service in the Philippines andJapan. Prior to in- duction, Russell had been enrolled at the University of Minnesota where he completed the pre-law course. Active in many campus sports, Strom is particularly interested in tennis, baseball and football. Elder W. A. Fagot The Greatest Mystery By J. Griswell 'Tis not this earth which God hoth mode, With all its beauties He hoth lent, Nor all the glories He's disployed Within this sparkling firmament, Nor is this body-temple mine To me His greatest work of all, Nor is the sunboll's golden shine, Or summer's changing into fall. 'Tis true, these miracles He's wrought Are precious mysteries to me, Unsolved by all vain human thought, Such endless God-sent ecstasy. But more mysterious, by for, Than all He's wrought here or above, Is that which sin can never mar, My Saviour's redeeming love, A love that led my Saviour down From off His universal throne, And laid on Him a thorny crown, And took His life to save my own. Heading the Golden Cords staff for the coming year is person- able Eddie Burnett, senior from Port Arthur, Texas. Ed is a pre- med student at Union College and is majoring in biology; his minor is chemistry. Needless to say, the editor of the annual is hoping for an appointment to the College of Medical Evangelists -at Loma Lin- da, California. Mr. Burnett, also an ex-service- man, was in the Army Air Corps for three years as a laboratory tech-. nician. His interests, apart from his studies, include baseball, tennis and photography. During the last summer, Eddie personally shot more than 300 feet of movies at the Union College Biological Station in Colorado. Students of Union College have enjoyed a fresh insight into God's victory-filled an- swers to their problems as Elder William A. Fagal, pas- tor of the Washington Ave- nue Church, Brooklyn, New York, brings to a close the an- nual Fall Week of Prayer. Elder Fagal pointed out several times during his stay that young people are restless until they put their problems and their lives into God's hands. "We are not made for sin; nor are we happy or find the greatest self - expression until we find rest in God," he said. Elder Fagal, who conducts a radio program in New York City with a listening audience of 400,000 persons, spoke on such practical topics as "Your Greatest Need," "How to Pray," "How to Have a Good Character," and "How Satan Will Try to Trick You." He continually referred to the fact that his purpose in coming was to help the students get better acquainted with Christ. A feature of Elder Fagal's visit to Union has been his much-fre- quented counseling periods. "I feel that counseling is more important than the meetings themselves, for many have gained victories while talking their problems out and praying together," he said. Elder Fagal's interest in youth has led him to conduct a Saturday night broadcast in New York City which is conducted by the youth themselves. "We have over 1,000 out to our meetings every Saturday night," he stated. Next spring Elder Fagal will conduct the Week of Prayer services at the College of Medical Evangelists. During the past week he has em- phasized the fact that life has meaning only as it is dedicated to the service of God, and he chal- lenged the students to consecrate their lives to Christ. "The greatest decision in life is to decide to take Jesus as your Saviour," he said. New Officers Shirley Boyer and Barbara Ver- saw are the newly elected associ- ate editors of the CLOCK TOWER, according to the returns from the student election held October 14 and 15. Bob McCorkle was the winner in the contest for managing editor. Gordon Engen, newly elect- ed photographer, will work with Glenn Hinsdale who was named to that position in the spring deal - ion. ,The Golden Cords has added three new members to its staff as a result of the election. Howard Sin- clair is the associate art editor, Al- ice Tyler the secretary, and Carol Thomson the associate secretary. The Golden Cords staff will not be complete until the ass crate edi- tor's position has balled. Mildred ri‘5111as been cho- sen tWIthe Roiti n as the secre- taisA IINSitbbath School.

At a recent business meeting the Ministerial Association of Union College completed its slate of offi- cers for the 1948-1949 school year. Those who have been chosen to serve are: president, Gerald Wil- liams; associate president, Norman Doss; secretary-treasurer, Jack _ Harris; associate secretary-treasur- er, John Parobek; sergeant - at - arms, Norman Sharp; publicity secretary, Arthur Hauck; choris- ter ' Max Torkelson, pianist, Ber- nita Ortner. Elder Wearner, head of the re- ligion department, was the speaker 11 at the first meeting of the student ministerial group. He portrayed the joys and sorrows of the gospel ministry and set the keynote for the year's activities by calling for an increased devotion to the task of spreading the ;gospel. On Friday evening, October 8, ) Bill Lehman and Harold Sample presented "Everyday excuses for Rejecting Christ." Their sermons brought out the ease with which men and women of today parallel remarkably those of Christ's time and before in finding reasons for not accepting Jesus Christ. William Wilson, Floyd Eccles and Lloyd Cleveland were the Ministerial Association speakers on the morning of October 16. Those who gathered in the academy chapel heard the three men stir- ringly present the doctrine of the imminent return of Christ—object, manner and signs. Christian living is to be the gen- eral theme of talks by Tom Nickum and Reuben Remboldt on Friday evening, October 22. Their topics are entitled "Confession" and "For- giveness," respectively.

ON THE MATTER OF ATTITUDE DURING OCTOBER 15-22 One hundred and four years ago this week our pioneers breathed many a fervent prayer seeking the needed preparation to meet their Lord in peace. Now, a thousand Christian students with their teachers are seek- ing the higher, nobler, better things of life also, in a series of special devotional services. What pleasure this must give to the unseen visitors from above! Many prayers, sincere, open-hearted, and deeply in earnest; from the penitent, the grateful, the one desiring strength to resist tempta- tion; together they mingle and ascend with the merits of Christ to the throne of God. Attentive to the earnest, Spirit-filled messages from the servant of the Lord, listened to twice daily, hearts, tender and yielding, are moved toward the foot of the Cross. Heaven-inspired music, and songs such as touch the harp-cords of the heart, vibrate again in celestial harmony deep in the inmost soul. A sacred affection for our Lord Jesus, He who gave Himself because of the very love He bore for us, is revived again. And this holy affection finds expression, now and again, in the communion of prayer, the praise of singing and the witness borne in testifying before like-minded fellow Christians. A happy season this is for all who will enter into its spirit with the right attitude. The reasonable and correct attitude toward the realities of faith in God bring an appre- ciation for spiritual things. Nor, however, is this all that angels observe and know. That soul which is in earnest and is honest with himself and God, will be led to a thoroughgoing self-examination and a deep searching of heart. In private prayer alone with God the soul is laid bare. A sense of unworthiness creeps over the scene. But as in contrition, pardon is pleaded for and graciously granted, courage and trust in God again clears away all that there is of doubt. Former vows are renewed, higher ground is reached, and new victories are gained. Progress is being made, the weary pilgrim is refreshed and strong again. With such Christian pleasures to be enjoyed, with the satisfaction of well-doing, with the peace of sins forgiven, with an eternal destiny at stake, all this and more to be gained or lost; how, oh how can anyone remain indifferent? Indifference is tantamount to rejection. Rejection of the hope of salvation, rejection of the costly redemption, rejection of the gift of Jesus; how tragic is indifference! Nor does procrastination—the waiting in vain for the more convenient time—add up to a different an- swer. What is your attitude? Today is not too late. Mercy still lingers. Now is the time. This is it. Hesitating one, for the sake of Christ and the welfare of your own soul in the years to come, we invite you to come forward just now. Meet with others at the foot of the cross. —Guest editorial by Elder Wearner The New CLOCK TOWER and the Campaign With this issue of the CLOCK TOWER a new policy as respects the publishing of the Union College news organ is being inaugurated. For campus distribution there will be six pages of news and features instead of the four printed in previous years; the two page insert, however, will not be available to those on our mailing list because of the added ex- pense. All readers will be benefited by the extra length of the page— approximately two inches. In past years the possibility of an inserted sheet for campus subscrib- ers has been made contingent upon a successful CLocK TOWER campaign. The present staff, on the contrary, begins its term of service by offering the larger paper as a reality and pledges its continuance in the' fullest confidence that the general student body will keep faith by supporting the coming campaign. The publication of a larger paper—especially one containing more campus news—is only in keeping with student sentiment if frequent surveys of campus opinion on this subject during the past several years are any criteria. To this end—a bigger and better school paper—the 1948-'49 CLocK TowEa staff will then unceasingly work. But newspapers cost money to publish. It is just here that we call upon each student for his support. We cannot work for you as you would have us until you work with us in the interests of our common aim—a successful campaign. This year's campaign is planned upon an individual, as well as a group, basis. As individuals we must all do our work, and as a student body we can but succeed. SUPPORT THE CAMPAIGN. R.S. EDITOR-IN-CHIEF FACULTY NEWCOMERS • • • 2 CLOCK TOWER, OCTOBER 22, 1948 (AT n.gEa,f Campus Visitors Attract Attention Elders L. C. Naden, W. T. Hooper and H. White of Australia visited Union College recently as representatives of the Australasian Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Mr. Naden works with the Voice of Prophecy in Australia; Mr. Hooper is President of the Queensland Conference and has had mission experience in Fiji; Mr. White is the superintendent of the Solomon Islands Mission. The three men flew to the States and plan to make visits to our denomi- national institutions as far east as Boston. Elder H. A. Morrison, vice-presi- dent of the Review and Herald Publishing Association of Wash- ington, D.C., was the chapel speak- er October 14. Mr. Morrison, a graduate of the class of 1900, was president of Uniop College from 1914-1922. Dr. Harold Shryock, dean of the College of Medical Evangelists, Loma Linda, California, spent three days interviewing prospec- tive medical college students for the classes of '49 and '50. Dr. and Mrs. Alfred Shryock accompanied their son to Lincoln. The elder Dr. Shryock is professor of anatomy at the preclinical division of the med- ical college. Cap. and 1 -ttrz1foTm. Twenty-five sophomores repre- senting ten states and four coun- tries transferred from the Nebraska Division of the School of Nursing to the Colorado Division to pursue courses in their major field—Nurs- ing. Union College had made con- tractual agreements with the two hospitals in Colorado for their practical experience in clinical in- struction. A benefit program netting $87 was given by the sophomores Sat- urday evening, October 3. A new electric sewing machine for the Nurses' Home is the anticipated ar- ticle to be purchased when funds are sufficient. Bear Lake—high in the rockies— was the destination of several cars loaded with students and faculty one day in the past week. God's great out:of-doors was added inspi- ration to those who hiked to Dream Lake and on another mile to Lake Hiayahai. The Class of '48 left as their class gift, a badminton outfit and a long mirror for the nurses' home at the Boulder Sanitarium and a croquet set and a mirror for the nurses' home at the Porter Sanitarium. The students in the clinical division ap- preciate this thoughtful gift to the school. Students in the Boulder unit en- joyed a supper at "The Grotto" Thursday evening, October 7. Glu- tenburger sandwiches and dough- nuts were only a portion of the de- licious food served by the hostess, Mrs. Burkett, dean of the nurses' home.. Miss Mazie Herin has recently joined the faculty of Union Col- lege. She has been assigned to the clinical division. Miss Herin re- cently received her Master's in per- sonnel service with a minor in nursing education frorri the Uni- versity of Colorado. She will act as coordinator and supervisor of in- struction in medical and surgical nursing and as instructor in phar- macology. Juniors just turned seniors com- pleting their rotation through the four blocks—psychiatry, pediatrics, obstetrical, and tuberculosis nurs- ing, and physical therapy, have demonstrated their ability to get B and A grades in specialties where a C grade is the usual achievement. Psychiatry, pediatrics, and tuber- culosis are given under the au- spices of the University of Colo- rado. The faculty of the school of nurs- ing entertained the twenty-five wives and secretaries attending the pre-council session of the Fall Council at a "tea" Sunday evening, October 10. The class of '48 recently wrote the National League examinations in medical and surgical nursing, chemistry, diet therapy, obstetrics and gynecology, pharmacology and chemistry. Compared with the na- tional norms the fifteen seniors were above the average group scholastically. In these six exami- nations, 60 grades were in the above average group with 39 grades in the highest decile. Ministerial Auxiliary Plans Year's Activities Looking forward to a season filled with much activity, the Min- isterial Association Auxiliary met the evening of October 11 to lay plans for the current year. New officers are: president, Mrs. Tate Zytkoskee; vice - president, Mrs. Robert Osmunson; secretary-treas- urer, Mrs. Herbert Hohensee. Mrs. Leslie Hardinge, club spon- sor, announced a series of lectures on "How to Give Bible Studies." These are to be given soon at club meetings. Elder A. J. Wearner told of an- other interesting feature, a class in Bible doctrines meeting at the close of each regular club program. This class is given especially for ministerial students' wives who are interested in further establishing themselves in a knowledge of the basic truths of the Bible. No col- lege credit will be given. The Adventist Artists bureau has been organized by Mr. Abel to pro- mote our artists throughout the United States. A series of four con- certs is booked for the coming sea- son. The artists include Charles Watson, pianist; Harry DeLugg, tenor; Ralph Pierce, pianist; and the Hub of Harmony, negro choir. Mr. Watson and Mr. and Mrs. Abel will appear in the following cities for the first concert: Minneapolis, October 23; Des Moines, October 24; St. Joseph, October 25; St. Louis, October 26; Tulsa, October 28; Kansas City, October 30; and Oklahoma City, October 31. Mr. Casey has been asked to as- sist with the State Band Clinic which will be held in Omaha at the end of the month. He plans to take a few of the more advanced instru- mentalists with him. Several new instruments have been added to the band. They in- clude an oboe, an E flat alto clari- net, and a bass clarinet. A late fall benefit concert will be presented in order to pay for these instruments. The girls of North Hall were very fortunate in having Miss Wood as guest speaker for worship on Thursday, October 14. Some very good advice was given on how to overcome one's liking for jazz and popular music by substi- MR. ALTHAGE Mr. Irvin Althage, new art in- structor, comes to Union College from Richmond Heights, St. Louis, Missouri. He is a graduate of the Washington University in St. Louis, where he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. During the war, Mr. Althage served in the conva- lescent training program. Besides his free lance work, Mr. Althage has worked as a commer- cial artist for advertising display companies. The September issue of the magazine, Art News, carries one of his paintings, "Excommuni- cation." Not to be slighted among his accomplishments are the cover of the souvenir book for the men who worked with the atomic bomb experiments and a design for a pop-up toaster which has been pro- duced on the market. tuting a more classical type of mu- sic. In order to inspire appreciation for this better music Miss Wood related the interesting story of "Ppnse Macabre" by Saint-Saens. To illustrate her point she then played the record. The music por- trayed a Halloween dance by skel- etons. Everyone was charmed with the clever piece. The Music Guild held its first meeting of the year Saturday night, October 9. The following new offi- cers were installed: Raymond Ver- do, president; Shirley Burton, vice- president; Prudence Ortner, secre- tary; John Ruffcorn, treasurer; Bob Beldin, historian; Joe Espinosa, publicity manager. The second meeting of the year included entertainment and re- freshments. The piano section pre- sented a clever little skit on how to apply for piano lessons for a fa- mous teacher. The instrumental group, under the direction of Bob Widener, presented a novelty Ger- man band. The concert they "ren- dered" was indeed charming. Mr. Hooper then presented the model choir. A short skit was followed by the vocal section. Melvin West was in charge of the organ section. A short portrayal of a church organist and his many problems in trying to please all of his congregation de- lighted the audience. "Rookie" teachers talk it over. MR. CLEVELAND Mr. Robert Cleveland, one of the instructors in history, is one of "Union's own." From his home in St. Joseph, Missouri, he came to Union College as a student five years ago. His career as a teacher of history began last year when he did student teaching for one semes- ter before joining the regular staff. Mr. Cleveland hopes to receive his Master's degree from the Uni- versity of Nebraska in January of this year. Bob is also known to many of the fellows for his active interest in the recreational program of the col- lege. He is frequently asked to ref- eree various sports activities. •••••••••••••• •• •m• • •• LOOSE SCHOOL MATERIALS?

Johnson Seahorse outboard motor, a gener- ous sprinkling of hammocks, chow, and miscellaneous equipment, tak- en in Missouri and Mississippi river water twenty-four hours a day for three weeks, or as long as symp- toms persist. These four, now experienced riv- er seamen, speak with great assur- ance of the merits of their prescrip- tion, as they had occasion to put it through conclusive tests during the past summer. Launching the Vaga- bond II from Nebraska City on June 1, they traveled a total of 1661 miles down the Missouri and Mis- sissippi rivers to tie up at New Orleans on June 25. The trip proved to be quite an undertaking for such a small craft, but under the careful planning and guidance of these four able-bodied seamen, it afforded a maximum of interesting experiences,with a min- ( imum of danger. Daytime would find Vagabond II nosing down stream trying to avoid sandbars and to keep out out of the wake of larger craft. At night they would locate some cozy spot, as cozy spots go on the Mississippi at night, and with the sky for their room, sling their hammocks be- tween two of whatever was near- est. Usually they would run up some small stream to an uninhabit- ed wilderness completely devoid of all civilization, and usually as the feeling of being true pioneers would envelop them, the Santa Fe r — CO-EDS . • • "The FAMOUS" Has the Clothes 1218 "0" St. 1240 ON YOUR DIAL Limited would roar by on a double main line not fifty feet from where they made camp. The arts of the culinary depart- ment were handled by each man in turn and sometimes new recipes were devised to meet the needs of the occasion. For those interested in river cookery, the following reci- pe for "fantastic flapjacks" may be found in the log book of the Vaga- bond II. "Two cups water, 'A cup canned milk, the remaining bits of pancake flour, cornmeal, and oat- meal, and all the eggs you have on hand ( which is usually one). The batter may still be too thin, (which it usually is ), and this may be rem- edied by adding sawdust, cement, glue, or any such thickening handy. Pour a couple of table- spoons of batter into a redhot skil- let and fry until you get exasperat- ed because they never get done. Turn them over once and serve them piping hot with kerosene, for- maldehyde, alka-selzer, or any- thing that will effectively cover the taste of the pancakes. It is also recommended that stomach pumps and food be served with the break- fast." The boys received some good publicity during the course of their travels. They were written up by several newspapers as they put in at some of the larger cities. They experienced many thrills, saw lots of country, and have recorded in both word and picture the evi- dence of a great adventure. Take it from them, if "ya gotta go," go down to New Orleans by boat. By ARNOLD BENGSTON In the main-traveled hall of our honored college Administration Building is one object that is of constant interest among our stu- dents. This simple three by four foot square hangs upon the wall at- tracting much attention and many tacks and pins in the course of each day's activities. People sometimes make disparaging remarks about its somewhat cluttered appearance and lack of fresh articles. They de- preciate its obvious popularity by maintaining that the radiator under it is the real attraction. But I think it's still lots of fun to "check" the bulletin board for something curi- ous, interesting or just funny. Every day you see a new "Lost— Fountain Pen," or "Found—Pair of Ladies' Gloves," or "Wanted—An Apartment" sign. You can always get textbooks, too, students. If you don't believe me, step up to the bulletin board some day and watch for something like the following: For sale, the following books: Psychiatric Behavior of Rats, by Moose, Lidecomber, and Beregcy- cosowicz; and How to Train Cock- roaches and Bedbugs to Play Leap- frog, by Beedenbecker, Beeden- becer, Beedenbecker, and Smith. Nothing quite as fantastic as that has come up, but the variety is similar to that. Then there are advertisements, campaign posters, cartoons, "For Sale,""Wanted-to-Buy" slips or just "Sign below if you want a copy of this outstanding bargain" blurbs. Whatever you want, you can find it here, along with quite a few that you don't want and never will. Anyway, it's a good place to meet and chat. LIBRARY VIGNETTES Have you ever been inside the portals of Union College library? And you say to yourself—another one of those foolish questions with which you are continually con- fronted at Union College. A foolish question—well, not exactly, for even though an average of 150, with a high of 180 students come to the library each evening, to say nothing of the hundreds during the day, you may be the one who doesn't even know what the library looks like. Perhaps we might call to your attention the intriguing exhibits on the bulletin board in the main lob- by. You couldn't have missed "Fer- dinand Freshman" displaying his array of new books. Just this week you will find "card catalog directions," with enlarged catalog cards on the bulletin board, with a key as to the information contained. You might be surprised how much there is on one catalog card. Mr. Althage, of the art depart- ment, has very kindly offered to prepare something for the bulletin board of interest and attraction to library patrons. In addition he is placing there a print of some fa- mous painting, in order to acquaint students with the artists. In closing we might just add that the library boasts at the present 43,014 volumes, 375 current maga- zines, 1000 phonograph records, ( and three goldfish!) as well as lots of other things, which we'll tell you about, if you just come over.

It was evident that each man on the Rocket team knew just where to be as Facundus and Lane threw pass after pass over the head of the Colorado safe- ty men. As the year moves on mid sea- son's change from football to bas- ketball, the campus's newest organ- ization will be changing with it. The interval activities have been organized into a series of clubs that change with the seasons. Be- fore touch football was started the club was organized to administer what we hope to be a smoothly running season. The main objec- tive of the organization is to organ- ize participation and iron out any arising difficulties. The officers of the present club are: President, Ari• Lis Brown; Vice-president, Bud Merickle; Secretary, Jim Stokos; Publicity Manager, Jerry Smith. For those who want to build brawny muscles, the weight lifting club has started up its year's ac- tivities. It meets every Thursday night from 9 to 10 in the gym. And if you don't want to lift weights, we have another way to make your muscles ache. Sunday night from 9 to 10 the tumbling club meets to go through its paces. Question: What do you think we could do to improve the singing of our school song? Betty Norgaard, sophomore from Iowa: "Sing it more, perhaps use it as a song with which to close chap- el exercises." Lois Bookhardt, junior from Florida: "Everyone ought to sing it as if 'he felt the spirit of the words and was not just singing words." Bob Fesler, freshman from Colo- rado: "Learn the words." Norman Rasmussen, sophomore from Washington: "Create enthu- siasm for it and more school spirit. It is necessary to know the words in order to put enthusiasm into the singing of it." Edith Tan, senior from China: "Get everyone to practice it. It is pitched too high, so I would sug- gest lowering the pitch." Sam Elie, junior from Michigan: "Sing it more often so that we know how to sing it. If we had more school spirit, we would sing it more often." Rose Schroeder, freshman from Kansas: "Sing it more often, maybe once a week in both lower and up- ARRIVING SOON • ELGIN WATCHES and SHEAFFER'S TRIUMPH Start your Layaway Plan for CHRISTMAS MORSE'S PORTABLE Typewriters1 compare UNDERWOOD with any.

Drill on it." Bobby Bell, senior from Oklaho- ma: "Have people learn the stan- zas, not just the chorus. It seems we are lost on the stanzas and the leader sings a solo. Practice it in chapel." Wilbert Dale, sophomore from South Dakota: "It seems to me the school song should be one of the requirements of the freshman ori- entation class; then everyone would know the words and we would not be embarrassed when visitors come." Miss Watt, faculty member: "I think there isn't a better response to the school song because the ma- jority do not know the words. If a few minutes were devoted fre- quently in worship periods and in chapel exercises in teaching the song to the student body, I think everyone would enjoy singing it better." Esther Harder, junior from Kan- sas: "I think it can be improved greatly by recomposition. If it were written so the majority could sing it, they would appreciate it a lot more and enter into the spirit of the song." / Alcid• by Pln•lin, Division, W. A.

The theme carried on throughout the evening was cen- tered around the displays of hob- bies contributed by many of the faculty members attending. After a short welcoming address by President Woods, an introduc- tory program was offered by those whose hobbies were of an enter- taining nature and could not be displayed on tables. Wayne Hoop- er told of his like for songs of the open prairie as he sang, "Give a Man a Horse He Can Ride." " 'De- bunking' popular misconceptions which involve some principle of the science of language" proved to be the subject of Dr. Reinmuth's discourse as he enumerated several common errors in word derivations. Mr. Logan stated that he met his hobby when he married Mrs. Lo- gan, as they teamed together, and smilingly presented two numbers on the piano. Elder Turner's hobby was quite in evidence as he stepped to the front of the plat- form where was arranged a myriad variety of colorful plants and flow- ers. Banks of asters, scarlet sage, and chrysanthemums, potted espe- cially for the occasion, backed by foliage growths of varied hues, formed a natural setting for this near professional gardener's tale of spare time well spent. After the program, the various exhibits were opened for the guest s' inspection. Outstanding among these were the combination buffet-table and chairs displayed by Elder Hardinge. Above the buf- fet hung a picture panel designed and hand-cnibroidered by Mrs. Hardinge. Dr. Woods revealed many and varied talents in his exhibit of paintings, wrought iron work, and "Turkey Work" rug craft. A pen and ink fantasy of young love, done when he was 19, offered to him "proof positive that I was once young and foolish." Refreshments consisting of ice cream, fruit punch and cake were served at the close of the social.

Hallock, noted lecturer, traveler, and photographer, will lecture on "Our Heritage" with motion pic- tures. The topic deals with the beauties of the American North- west with special emphasis upon the historical background. January 15, 1949: A motion pic- ture, "Caravan to Tibet," will be . presented by Nicol Smith, author of Burma Road and Into Siam. Comment will be made by the au- thor. February 5, 1949: Walter Du- ranty, a distinguished foreign cor- respondent, will be the guest speaker; his subject, "Russia in the West." March 12, 1949: The Guilet String Quartet in concert will give a recital. This quartet has fame both at home and abroad. March 26, 1949: Carolyn and Earle Blakeslee, the American Con- cert Duo, will present a program of ancient, classical and contempo- rary works including selections from opera and musical comedy. April 16, 1949: Union College music department will present a concert. The seventh lyceum will be an- nounced later. It will take the place of the October 16 program in which the "Debonairs, a vocal male quartet from C h i c a g o, planned to perform. For reasons yet unknown, the singers failed to arrive and entertain the large audi- ence which had assembled in the auditorium to hear them. A pinch- hit program was given in which Mr. Wayne Hooper sang several numbers and "Uncle Arthur" Max- well told stories. FRED IVERSON FLOWER SHOP Specialize in Corsages Phone 2-1310 d The unified bell system first thought of for Union College 57 years ago this fall, has become a reality. It consists of six circuits, 13,000 feet of double conduit wire, and 21 clocks. Installation has fol- lowed the heating tunnels so far as possible, and has also gone under- ground with a cable buried below frostline. The individual clocks are entirely without manual regulation and cannot be set individually, but must be reset from the master con- trol clock on the main panel. Thus the entire school program will be kept together. In case of power failure, the system is provided with a storage battery. The old bell system has proved inadequate in recent years be- cause it connected only depart- ments in the Administration build- ing. In 1946 the senior class gave as its class gift the first contribu- tion toward the present bell sys- tem. In honor of their contribution, the name of the class will appear on the control board in the regis- trar's office. The bell system will tie together all buildings on the campus, and in addition, the girls' annex and the bookbindery. Dormitories will have not only their individual pro- grams but the class program as well. The bells will ring at the close of a class period and five minutes later. Buildings on the west side of the campus have been the first to receive service, and buildings on the east side will soon be connect- ed with the system. For Gifts Send . . .

Benton's retort was, "But every time I come to class I find three or four people sitting in my place." Whereupon Elder Gordon ordered Elvin to proceed to his proper seat and throw the imposters out. All "three or four" of the trespassers proved to be Bill Zima, who was promptly evicted. Lois Bingaman was overheard in the library one evening asking of Shirley Burton, "How long does the Week of Prayer last—one week?" I can imagine Shirley was tempted to answer, "No, ten days." Teddy O'Blander, is the force of habit that strong? It seems that said person was preparing to retire one evening be- fore the lights at North Hall were turned out. After turning out her own lights, she tried in vain to find her houseslippers. Not having much success, she turned on the room lights, fetched her flashlight, turned out the room lights again, and continued her search by the light of her flashlight. We are sorry to hear that one of our Former students, Mr. Lloyd Barnes, is in the Omaha hospital with polio. He has been holding successful efforts in Nor- folk. We pray that he may soon be well and he able.to continue in his work. On hearing mysterious sounds of laughter and strangp noises in the North Hall parlor Saturday night after the program, it was found that a man was causing all the commotion. Further in- vestigation revealed that this man was none other than "Uncle Arthur" Maxwell telling bedtime stories to the girls. Mr. Beaven has invited the members of his class in speech fundamentals to check their weapons at the door. It all began when Marion Skyberg gave a speech on the wonders of her home state, California. Then the other members of the class became very anxious that every- one should know about their wonderful states, and at that things really began to get rough. Academy biology students had a good laugh recently when one of their num- ber, Ernest Connell, found himself seem- ingly glued to his seat. Investigation proved that someone had left gum in the seat, and poor Ernest was certainly stuck with it. Does anyone need a baby sitter? John- ny Ruffcom seems to have made quite a hit over at South Hall. Ask Donnie Culver for particulars. A patient overheard in the infirmary: "Why, man, that's not the way you do it! I learned to put on Band-aids in the Army!" Yes, Mr. Woodson, this is cer- tainly a world for technicians. Someone in South Hall isn't too straight on his holidays. It wasn't even close to July 4, but whether he was us- ing blockbusters, rockets, or firecrackers hasn't been ascertained. Louis Grey, patriotic to the nth de- gree, took Dr. Woods' advice to heart ,that we should ask our friends whether they had visited the X-ray trailer yet. Standing close to said trailer, Louie quer- ied the teachers in particular, and his only comment was, "Teachers should be letter examples!" Men, if you want your cherished se- crets, personal ambitions, and awkward moments heralded before the world, drop a thoughtless remark around Einar Berlin or Kenneth Arendt. Their report before the SIK each Thursday evening, is both anticipated and dreaded. A typical Arthur Godfrey talent scout show was staged at the last SIK meet- ing, Don Ilessel as master of ceremonies. The winner of the evening was Bernard Edwards, who played Chopin's Polon- naise. Phyllis Ernst and her roommate, Joan Sharp, had a little trouble when they found out the washateria here in College View had gone out of business. Because they had their laundry bags with them, they decided to hop on a bus and go to one near Lincoln. After being on the bus for about three blocks, it suddenly dawned on them that they had on loafers, old cotton dresses, and their hair was done up in scarves and . . . it was Sunday morning. There they sat in the very front with their LAUNDRY bags high upon their laps, pushing in the clothes which now and then peeked out. A variety of colors came forth from their faces as people, dressed in their Sunday best, entered the bus and stared. On the return trip from the washateria, the two girls had secured a box to put their clean, wet clothes in. All went well until the girls found that the box of clothes had fallen to the floor. All at once came the inevitable roar of laugh- ter as the embarrassed girls picked up the sad mess of clothes. As they settled themselves again, one of the girls said to the other in order to mislead the crowd, "And how is your husband today?" All things happen to the best of us. At least that is what Miss Whitfield, col- lege matron, discovered recently. Her "little earache and slight sore throat" was diagnosed as mumps. She enjoyed her confinement playing with the many toys her friends sent her, since she was suffering with a "kids" disease. In newswriting class one day, Miss Shull was endeavoring to explain to the students how all large newspaper offices keep on files biographies and other data on current outstanding men. Using an ex- ample, she said, "If President Truman should die this evening, they have his records kept up to date enough to have them on the press and to the public with- in a matter of a few hours." It seems that one of her students had been caught either dozing or daydreaming, for she spoke up and asked, "Are they expecting President Truman to die tonight?" Sgt. Frank M. Bietz is spending a 2.5-day furlough visiting his parents, and sister Flora Mae. •He is stationed at Fitzsimmons Hospital in Denver and is working at the hospital in connection with the morgue. Frank was a member of the freshman class of '45. The Village Girls Club will organize Tuesday evening, October 26, at 7 o'clock. All village girls, connected with the school in any way, are invited to meet in the parlor of North Hall. A surprise birthday party was given for Frances Hester and Virginia Reyn- olds October 15 - in North Hall spread room. The guests were Virginia Reyn- olds, Frances Hester, Iona Roy, Mary Coma Myers, Mavis Emmerson, Howard Engeberg, Warren Gepford, Norman Rasmusson, Joe Dieters. Refreshments consisted of sandwiches, ice cream and cake. Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Emmerson vis- ited their daughter, Mavis, the week end of October 15. Mr. Emmerson was a member of the . graduating class of 1947. c:7qaaciztr2 ; 9 SVotEd. Guest Speakers Chaplain Ahlman of the State Penitentiary and the Boys' Reform- atory located here in Lincoln, ad- dressed the Academy in chapel Monday, October 11. Mr. Ahlman stressed the fact that it is the lack of religious education and a Chris- tian home that has been respon- sible for many entering these two institutions. He cited numerous ex- amples of the changes that have come about in the lives of these men through the working of the Holy Spirit. Bob Hamilton, ministerial stu- dent, gave a talk in Youth Problems class on the subject of "Temperance." Mr. Hamilton was a bar tender in Chicago before be- coming an Adventist; therefore he was able to appeal to the students as one who knows what the results of intemperance can be. Classes The students of Junior Business Training have found this to be an active as well as a practical class. Thus far the students have studied about money, filing, and budgeting time and money. They have learned how to write checks and money or- ders. In the future they are to study about insurance, taxes, com- munication, and travel. The Spanish I students are learning a new way to play Bingo. Before the books arrived Mrs. Maas, the teacher, taught the stu- dents to count to one hundred. The students played Bingo for practice using Spanish numbers. Social Activities On October 7, at 7 o'clock most of the academy students and fac- ulty members went to the gym for an evening of skating. All appeared to enjoy the fun. .",+•••••••••• WILSON GROCERY Open Saturday Night 4736 Prescott Gold-N-Glaze Donuts FRESH DAILY A member of the social commit- tee states: We are happy to an- nounce that the academy may use the gym every Thursday evening. We want every one of you acad- emy students to come and we will try to entertain you with games and interesting things that the committee is planning. In the meantime, come and skate awhile. The academy boys have decided upon new basketball suits. They are to be green trunks with white trimmings and white shirts with red lettering. Now let's see some good playing, boys( On Saturday evening, the 25th of September, academy students and teachers had a lawn party, at the home of the new Bible teacher, Elder Osmunson. Cake, ice cream and punch were served for refresh- ments. Games such as musical chairs, three deep, hot potato, and others were played. Thursday, September 30, there was a box supper in the gym. Elder Osmunson was the auctioneer. The highest price for a box was $2.05 which was paid by Raymond Klien. The boxes made by the girls were very pretty, and the food in- side them was delicious. After sup- per there was skating. The best yet was the hay ride on the night of October 2. The hay ride began in front of the College View church. Everybody was glad to hear there was going to be a ride to Pioneer Park, a marshmal- low roast and games. English IV. Excursion The English IV class chose Mon- day afternoon, October 4, to make an excursion through the interest- ing places of the city of Lincoln. With Delores Underhill as guide, the class, accompanied by their sponsor, visited the deserted Cot- ner College and then the busy and beautiful campuses of Wesleyan University, Agriculture College, and the Nebraska State University. For study of industries the students visited H. P. Lau Company, the Grainger Warehouse, and Gooch's Mill. Pioneer Park was among the scenic spots viewed. Where Are '48's Seniors? Have you wondered what last year's seniors are doing this year? Maybe you've seen several of them on the campus. Those attending Union this year are Dick Hunt, Merlin Dealy, Alvin Opp, Flora Mae Bietz, Leland Flyger, William Budd, Glenn Johnson, Lemma Gre- hewoth, and Atnafie Temtemi. Wedding bells rang for two sen- iors—"Mike" Bogdanovich, who is also studying here at Union, and Audrey Kleiman-Shaffer, who is at Loma Linda where her husband is taking the medical course. Some are attending other schools: Mulatie Debebe, Lewis College, Lockport, Illinois; Seifer Selassie, Gustavus Adolphus Col- lege in St. Peter, Minnesota; and Kifle Segaie, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois. Richard Ran- dolph, president of the class of '48, is taking a course by correspond- ence. One of the summer seniors, Betty Schmidt, is working at pres- ent and expects to be on our cam- pus the second semester.
