rr With Mr. Hartman pulling and President Cossentine pushing, the new science building will soon be a reality. 4 0 5 5 8 3223 VOL. XX � UNION COLLEGE, LINCOLN 6, NEBRASKA, OCTOBER 13, 1944 � NO. 1 100,000 SCIENCE BUILDING UNDER CONSTRUCTION 44 Foundation Poured � 14 Days After REGISTRATIONS SHATTER ALL-TIME RECORD AS COLLEGE ENROLLMENT SOARS TO 550 Ground Breaking With Professor Hartman driving a red tractor and President Cossentine guiding a plow, the first sod of the new science building was broken September 25 at 10:- 30 a. m. • The ceremony, with Mr. H. C. Hart- man as chairman, marked another signi- iicant step in the progress of Union Col- lege. President Cossentine, who reviewed the history of the project, told how the neces- L ary amount of money was raised before - ,armission had been given for the build- ing. God's answer to prayer was related by Mr. Hart-man, who told of the stack of mail sent by Union to Washington in con- ,ction with building permits. He also gave a brief description of the building which is to be finished in eight months. Dr. Woods, faculty representative, and Eileen Mayberry from the student body told what the new building will mean to Union College. Opening prayer was offered by W. B. Mohr of the Central ..f• Union Conference. J. N. Anderson conse- crated the building to the service of God in his dedicatory prayer. The flat-roofed building will house the physics department on first floor, the chemistry department on second floor, and the biology department on third. In compliance with requirements made by the locall tire department, a basement, )room will be built to house chemistry acids and explosives. The front entrance to the building will face north directly opposite the library building. We notice that the excavating for our new science building is completed, and the footings have been run. Union march- es on! Previewing the Lyceums Boasting an interesting list of celebri- ties, the annual lyceum course this year presents an entertaining and instructive program ranging from North Pole explor- ers to Union's favorate local talent. The first program in this series has already been given. Don Ebright is a man wholly qualified to present the In- dian problem to America. During his six years of residence in India, he has met and interviewed many leaders including Nehru, prominent Mohammedans, and several native princes. He has given us a very enlightening picture of the Indian situation in his stimulating lecture, "In- dia in the Spotlight." On November 11, Bob Bartlett, captain "of one of Peary's boats in the first ex- pedition to reach the North Pole, will lecture. Mr. Bartlett has made 17 trips to the Arctic regions. Many of the trips. *lhavc been for zoological societies of America. Recently he also has under- taken some exploratory trips into these regions for the United States Navy. Mrs. Mark W. Clark, wife of General Clark, is scheduled to be the speaker on the night of December 9. The title of her remarks is "When the Boys Come Home Again." Mrs. Clark has many interesting , ' picture slides which have been made from photos taken by the general and his staff. Some of these pictures pertain .No the general's secret visit to Africa a short time before the African invasion took place. She also will read extracts from the diary and many of the interest- ing letters written by General Clark. k• � (continued on page 2) Leaders for Student Organizations Chosen Leaders for various student organiza- tions on the campus have been named by the Nominating Committee and adopted by the student group.

W.r!tims,±vr.ir: Presented by Representative Curtis A complete compilation of the writings of George Washington consisting of 39 volumes, was presented to Union College as a gift from Representative Carl Curtis of the first district of Nebraska, guest chapel speaker Sept. 21. In keeping with the celebration of Constitutional w e e k, Representative Curtis stressed the value of the rights made available to us through that doc- ument, and the necessity of preserving the democratic ideals which George Washington sought to embody in our government.

The Southernaires, who are featured weekly over one of the major radio net- works, and who are sponsored on their concert tour by the National Concert and Artists Corporation, are considered one of the best male quartets in the United States. By their concert work the South- ernaires have not only aided materially in the appreciation of the Negro folk songs and spirituals, but have been able to create more substantial race sympathies in this country. The personnel of the quartet is the same as it was last year: William Edmon- son, bass; Ray Yeates, tenor; Jay Stone Toney, baritone; Lowell Peters, tenor; and Spencer Odom, accompanist and ar- ranger. The program for the 1944-45 season is given on page 2. M. V. Officers Elected Several splendid programs have already been planned and given by the Mission- ary vnlurtecr � thc loaders ka-..:ng been voted into office by the church the first Sabbath of the school year. Officers of the organization are Ernest Herr and Virgene Westermeyer, leaders; Walter Howard and Carol Kvinge, secretaries; Kenneth Fletcher and Marian Dailey, choristers; and Bonnie Lindquist and Nor- man Roy, pianists. Progressive classes and sunshine and literature bands have already started their work, giving evidence of the activity which will no doubt characterize the so- ciety throughout the year. "He was never elated by applause, nor dejected by censure or disappointment." —Desire of Ages filling the dormitories, classrooms, and chapel of the institution to capacity and beyond! The college and preparatory enrollment totals 528, exceeding by 23 the former banner-year registration of 505 in 1940. More than 230 Freshmen and nearly 100 Sophomores are on the campus; upper division totals are not yet available. The students represent an area of the United States extending from North Da- kota to Texas, from Maine to California; India, South America, Hawaii, Switzer- land, the British West Indies, and Colum- bia are also represented. Dean James reports that there are 128 boys in South Hall, and adds that four more are coming. Miss Rees and her 199 girls are now comfortably settled in North Hall and the annex. By using the attic, basement, infirmaries, and guest rooms of the dormitory and the second story of the normal building, it has been possible to make room for all. In the academy 74 are enrolled, accord- ing to Mr. Holmes, Principal. Of this num- ber 36 are seniors, who will comprise the largest class ever graduated by Union College Academy. Professor E. M. Cadwallader, instruc- tor in education, announces an attendance of 85 in the training school this year. New filing cabinets and a number of library books have been added to the elementary school equipment, and most of the desks have been refinished. FLASH! College Triples Ingathering Goal of $800 $2505. Raised By 22 Field Day Bands Former Record Ingathering Total Was $1650. for the Fall of 1942-43. All - Out for Ingathering The annual Ingathering Field Day, postponed since last spring, was held Tuesday, October 10, with a large ma- jority of Union students and faculty par- ticipating. Twenty bands spread out over territory in a 100-mile radius from Lincoln, work- ing Omaha, Crete, Plattsworth, York, David City, and Hebron, as well as rural areas. Ingathering band leaders are as follows: Harold Burr, Vernon Koenig, Wilbur Neff, Ernest Voyles, Woodrow Larson, Wayne Olson, Oliver Johnston, Gerald McHenry, Bennie Liebelt, Ernest Herr, Francis Crofoot, H Edward e UNION i � Koenig, Julius Korgan, Larry Boyd, Elmer Jackson, Walter Webb, Wilbur Chapman, Junius Olson, Orvin �Ernest Mattison and Delmer Coming W elk OR COLLEGE i F A14-1Y-ayer The fall week Oacvdtan,190 13-20, will be conducted by Elder Leon Robbins of St. Lquilit,Uissouri.

Ground-breaking exercises hold attention of students, faculty, and friends of the college gathered at the site of the new science building. It's a common, mundane phrase; yet how better could we describe the elements of a new school year—perhaps even adding the rest of the refrain, "something borrowed, something blue." For to the old routine of books, classrooms, and "quizzes"—a program well familiar after lo these many years!—we bring a new determination, fresh vigor, and a firmer reliance on the master Teacher. Borrowing a bit of sunshine from those who radiate cheer—a little help from stronger and more experienced companions—we endeavor to hold out through those "blue" periods which must inevitably come. Though looking at a single phase of the situation—particularly the last mentioned one—may be disappointing, you will find satisfactory re- sults in viewing the combination as a whole. � • For instance: the sparkling strands of crystal we noticed in the bushes around North Hall last week were merely drab old cobwebs—in combina- tion with the new element of moisture—supplied by detestible misty weather—and shining brightly with the borrowed light of a cloudy day! If the newness, he routine, the borrowed influence of someone else, or some misfortune is about to get you down, grasp the wider view—and know it all will come out right! � J. G. 7414d the Cloak Totve4 A brand new paper? Of course not; the form, and name are still the same as before. Yet the material to appear on the pages depends entirely upon the group of persons who produce it—never the same from year to year. Do you want an interesting student publication? Then help us make it such! We can do it—not the staff, nor the faculty, but "we the stu- dents," through cooperation and contributions, insignificant though they may seem. We'll talk more about it later. Meanwhile, remember...we're counting on you all! � J. G.

LACK OF EASTERN KNOWLEDGE EXPOSED "China doesn't exist in the American mind," exclaimed Elder Scharffenberg of the General Conference as he pointed out the "blind spot in American educa- tion" and warned of the danger lying in continued ignorance of the Orient Oct. 2. Asia, as large as North, South and Central America and Europe combined, contains 66 per cent of the world's popu- lation and natural resources, he said. To illustrate the lack of knowledge on the part of many Americans, the speaker stated that in spite of the reports of -ra- pid progress in the Japanese conflict, 25 years would he the time required to conquer all the Pacific Islands at the rate of one a day. By comparison with "alllout" war effort, Elder Scharffenberg appealed that all our energies be directed into the Christian warfare and the spread of the gospel. Faculty and staff members of Union College attended their first social get-to- gether of the year Tuesday evening, Sep- tember 26, at the Lincoln Y.M.C.A. Following dinner, served in the private dining room at 6:30, was a program of games and speeches in one of the recep- tion rooms of the "Y". The group of habitual quiz originators, along with their wives and other staff members, matched wits with 16 ques- tions presented by Mrs. Blue. Quiz-com- plexed students, take heart! She reports no perfect scores, the highest being 13. To President Cossentine's welcome ad- dress, Dr. Woods and Miss Anderson re- sponded with speeches on "How it feels to be back at Union College." Miss An- derson occasioned no little surprise and mirth on the part of the group by express- ing her thoughts in lines of original verse, which appear below. Guest speaker of the occasion was Elder B. L. Anderson, class of '04, mis- sionary to South China, and brother of J. N. Anderson. Special recognition was given those who have been members of the faculty for the longest time. Miss Rees, now be- ginning her 29th year as either a student or teacher, holds first place, with Mr. Engel a close second, claiming a 27-year stay. Both Dr. Jorgensen and Mr. Keene have spent approximately 20 years at the college, and a number of others have been here 10 years or longer. Campus Women's Club Holds Annual Picnic The coming of autumn always augurs good things for the families of members of the Campus Women's Club, whose traditional autumn picnic this year was celebrated Thursday, October 5. More than a hundred people attended who af- ter playing volleyball and other games until tired, enjoyed a dinner planned by Mrs: Robert Woods, chairman of the pic- nic committee. The Campus Women's Club was organ- ized six years ago for the wives of the faculty and staff members, and has since remained active. The monthly club meet- ings consist of informal and educational programs. The officers of the club for 1944-45 are Mrs. Frank Marsh, president; Mrs. Peter C. Jaynes, vice president; Miss Pearl Ilall, secretary and treasurer; and Mrs. W. Fletcher Tarr, assistant secretary and treasurer. Our chairman has called on me to say a word or two, And since that is expected, I guess that's what I'll do. I know that it is proper since it is so true and right To say I'm glad to be here, but that sounds rather trite. I could expound upon the fact that not too long ago I left Union as a student, but I'm sure that you all know The way it feels to leave •a place, to stay away, and then The feeling that you get inside when you come home again. I could look forward to a better year, or I could reminisce To days that I have spent here, and make a speech of this. But I know that Mr. Beaven is the expert in that line And if I made a poem would our English teachers mind? I'm sure that Mr. Lauritzen would find a few things wrong If in my joy at being back I burst into a song. A sermon on the subject I'm afraid would hardly do And if it would I'd have to leave that field to Dr. Blue. So in my search for self expression that would not bring a frown I found one thing that I can do—I can sit down. �'MARIE ANDERSON ELDER GRIGGS VISITL A former president of Union College, Elder Fredrick Griggs, who, according to Dr. Woods, "built wisely and well:5; addressed the general convocation Oct. 4. Professor Griggs is now President of the Board of Trustees of the College of Medical Evangelists. His enlivening talk was on the subject of "having a good time in college." Es- sentials for this purpose are contentment and a spirit of gratitude. We are to ra- diate happiness amid the increasingly darkened atmosphere of trouble, Mr. Griggs reminded us. A more favorable at- titude on the part of students and faculty4 toward the existing unpleasent weather' resulted from his rendition of "It is not raining rain to me—it's raining roses down!" Lyceums—from page 1 On February 3 Slim Williams, Alaskan wolf-dog musher, will come to our plat- form. This is the character portrayed by Jack London in his book, "Burning Day- light." During 1932-33 Mr. Williams, traveled from Copper Center, Alaska, to Washington, D. C., a distance of. 5,600 miles, on dogsled, to plead for the construction of the Alaskan-Canadian highway. Our lyceum course would not be con- sidered complete without a program . of our own local talent. The Union College musical department, under the direction of Mr. Adrian R. M. Lauritzen, will pre-I sent a program containing both religious and secular numbers. This program is scheduled for April 21. There is one more number of our ly- ceum schedule which has not yet been definitely decided upon. It will be of a musical nature, however, the committee asserts. and well w-rth our interest.

A rainless shower, contrary to all previous weather forecasts, was reported by the Union College Weather Bureau Sunday, October 1, when friends of Evelyn Tarasenko gathered at the J. W. Rowland home for a surprise bridal shower. Since Miss Tarasenko is assistant li- brarian, the work theme was cleverly carried out by having her gifts disguised as library books. There were titles and authors such as Live Alone and Like It by Rill Peterson and Roy's Favorites by Roy Eckerman. 4 1 0 0 0 Two of our girls, Harriette and Made- leine, were seen around the dorm this past week with especially broad smiles on their faces. The reason? Their moth- ers, Mrs. Sherard and Mrs. Douma, were visiting them. * A surprise party that was a surprise was given October 2 for Professor A. R. M. Lauritzen in honor of his (?)th birthday by students and teachers who work in the music department. Mr. Lauritzen is a new faculty member, hav- ing joined the college staff this year. * Kappa Theta offers the report of offi- cers selected for the first semester of 1944-45: president, Hilda Fern Remley; vice president, Roberta Pogue; sec-treas., Evelyn Beebe; critic, Eileen Mayberry. Between the Blinks Don't you feel sorry for those who went through the awful process of reg- istration and then decided to drop a few subjects, change courses, or drop school altogether? Perhaps it was educational anyway. * * Have you seen the way some of the fellows resent the privilege bestowed upon the girls of going through the boys' line in the cafeteria? Can't say that I blame you, fellows. But it isn't every year a girl can do that. O * Even the best of us fall down on the skating rink, don't we, Harold M.? * e Usually Freshmen a r e considered "green". But one Freshmen boy, had an idea the other morning when he per- suaded the majority of the fellows to go to breakfast—and early at that— in order to delay the girls at the meal. * * "How can you tell it's your tooth- brush?" "I can tell by the feel." The next morning there were powder boxes, bobby pins, combs, lotion, and face cream in every corner of the room. Where did all this happen? Ask Betty Christensen or June Johnstone. Maybe they would like to enforce a rule stating that dresser drawers should be closed after having been used—especially after the lights are out. Formal introductions were in order one day during the first week of school. Art Thomson chose to make a spec- tacular entry by coming in late to history class. Mr. Hause was thoughtful enough to stop in the midst of his lecture to make the introduction. 0 * 0 "Wax, wax, wonderful wax. One's self control it sure does tax." Several North Hall girls (perhaps South Hall fellows, too) have fallen downstairs. Maybe it wasn't all due to wax, but yours truly would like to blame it on that. 0 0 0 Evelyn Beebe enjoys hearing voices— deep ones, new ones, any kind of voice— providing it's the right voice. She doesn't mind what hour she hears it, either. • In celebration of the twenty-fifth wed- ding anniversary of Elder and Mrs. 1 : C. Wilson, a surprise party was given them at the home of Elder and Mrs. Venden Oct. 3. Special features of the evening were the story in poetry of their romance and foreign travels, the presenting of tele- grams and messages from far away friends including the General Conference, as well as verbal tributes given by those present. One of the pictures taken showed Mrs. Wilson cutting the "wedding" cake. A sterling silver service for eight was presented to them. The social honoring the president of the college board and his wife was spon- sored by the union and local conferences and the Colorado medical institutions. O 0 O 0 Marilyn Brown decided to leave the stairs all in one piece Monday night. From the sound of the fall, one would think the whole stairway was giving way. Others have done the same, Marilyn, so don't feel too badly. e Using the North Hall motto, "Others," Eileen Mayberry gave a talk to the girls in worship in which she stressed the im- portance of being friendly and living up to our motto. Virginia Lohman illustra- ted her point with a chalk drawing. .4 � Gibson's ,, • . 4 at r 4 � • MORSE'S � .: 'A Opposite South Hall � Tel. 4-1159 4 � V t•:•7•7•7•7•:•:•:•7•7•7•7•7•1•7•747•7•7•7•7•7•7•7•_•4 0:.” 0” 0.1.1•00”04.0•Mk4.:, Dr. Frank T.

Quick Deliveries � Open Sundays 4711 Prescott Phone 4-2236 The College MILDRED THOMPSON OLSON It takes a heap o' Freshmen In a school to make it hum— Their academic habits, Frivolous ways and chewing gum. But soon they're college-polished, And acknowledge with a smile They can't change "Dear Old Union," Nor remove the famed rock pile. It takes the settled sophomores, Who've come back to school once more. They passed through Trig, and Algebra, There "sure" can't be much more. They find that Greek and History Can surely cramp one's style, And -all their acts and deeds and grades Are carefully kept on file. It takes a speck o' Juniors Just to keep a school alive. They know the ways of college life, And for what aims to strive. They know the campus over— Everything's checked off their list. They 'specially liked the parlor And the dates that they have (censored). It takes the solemn Seniors With their dignity and grace, Who contemplate and, thus, prepare To find in life a place. The Seniors, who in private rooms, Recount those early days— When they were in the younger set, And had those younger ways. It takes the famous faculty To make the school complete. They expose the youth to German, Science, math, and even Greek. But the Freshmen and the Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors, faculty, Mingle as the autumn breezes To make the "college family." Campus Outing With evidences of Autumn brewing in the air, Union College took advantage of a brisk, sunny afternoon September 28 to turn from school routine to outdoor sports and a picnic supper on the campus. The variety of entertainment from 4:00 to 7:30 p. m. included baseball, volley- ball, skating, ping-pong, and football con- ducted at various spots on the south end of the campus. New students headed by Warren Sher- bert and Wilbur Chapman's team of old students competed in a lively ball game scoring 21 for the old students and 1 for the new. "We played till we lost count," ex- plained Beth Cadenhead when asked whether her side or Bonnie Lindquist's had won in girl's soft ball. Lines forming in front of the dining room at six were soon met by another pro- cession returning with well-filled plates to enjoy supper out-of-doors. While few could miss enjoying the beauty of the still-green lawn, a closer observation rewarded Mary Ellen Owen with a unique harvest of nine four-leaf clovers. The worship bell and lingering tints of a magnificent sunset marked the close of the outing. ,Ceisure packets You may not have much leisure, but you'll find this type of jacket wear- able for classroom and sports. $1295 to $25 Furnishings First Floor Trench Coats This belted raincoat of cotton gabardine poplin comes in Olive Drab or Beige.

According to the calendar I am re- minded that winter gym sports are now just around the corner. With croquet sets and bats and halls fast (1;sappealir g, the enthusiasts are eagerly pawing the ground ready to organize the intramural teams for basketball and volleyball. Everybody is looking forwar'l to the most exciting season yet in Union's gym. And there's plenty of reason to be looking for action with the program that has been planned.,4 There is to be a little change in the or- ganization of the basketball teams this year, with TEXAS, COSMOPOLITANS, NEBRASKA, and MINNESOTA battling it out for honors. A new volleyball league will be in action, along with ping-pong and shuffleboard tournaments. Roller skat- ing still rates as the top sport at Union. With that line-up in store and plenty of new names on the sports roll call, all can be assured of an exciting season. So when studies bore you, remember we have a gym designed for relaxation, entertain- ment, and exercise—let's make use of it. .40:€1•;•:•;•:•:•, *;•: � • :41. •• •14 FINEST GREETING CARDS 4 � for • • Every Occasion as Styled by 9.4=1.0.404MPI1••••"..mr,,•••••,,*mr.,0mrir.mmormrormrto CALVERT STREET PHARMACY Drugs — School Supplies Fountain Service 4-2242 � 48th & Calvert St. ,14=•.044•.411•11.01,1,...0.01M100.4M1.0.4=1,04M.NIM.O.M.0.1.1.0.1!0•11•0•1M.04•04111.0=1.0.0.••11.1”..., a C.IMMOINM.0.1 . 1M1.0.1.1.0•NE.0.111MOIM•411 1/4=0041•04}1Mowt. � $ HER mmon sons m•LLER l DATE
