He is also judged on citizenship, religious tendencies, and participation in extra-curricular activities. The final selection is made by a staff committee which bases its choices on the results of balloting by the student body and staff. Union was permitted to submit fourteen names to Who's Who this year. Those chosen are: Betty Bell—now completing her third year at Union, hails from Ft. Worth, Texas.

Hall, associate pro- fessor of Romance languages, has just completed a third year high school Spanish course for the ex- tension division of the University of Nebraska. Several years ago the academic dean of Mountain View college, Phillipines, realized the lack of advanced courses in Spanish. Knowing that Miss Hall had writ- ten, taught and traveled widely, he informed the education department at the University of Nebraska of the need of the course and of the qualifications of Miss Hall. Con- sequently she was asked if she would be willing to prepare such a course. The two texts she has prepared have been copyrighted. Included in the texts are "pep-talks," exercises, and self-check tests. She has in- corporated into the texts some of the experiences she has had in Spanish speaking countries. Bach text contains approximately 600 pages. Her work on the extension course has inspired her to plan to visit South America this coming sum- mer. There she would like to visit our hospitals, schools, and the Union College alumni. In This Issue 1. Leditors, page 2 2. Tricky Mix, page 2 3. Rifle Range, page 2 Marsh To Discuss Bible ys Science Next Week Guest speaker Dr. Frank L. Marsh, chairman of scientific study with the General Conference, will be on the Union College campus November 14-19. At the invitation of the religion department, Dr. Marsh will eval- uate the theories of "Evolutionism" as opposed to "Creationism." He will occupy the Monday and Friday chapel periods as well as Sabbath services. Presently associated with An- drews University, Dr. Marsh was chairman of the biology depart- ment at Union College from 1935 through 1950. He became chairman of the biology department at Em- manuel Missionary college until 1957 when the General Conference called him. Union College library contains three books written by Dr. Marsh: Evolution, Creation, and Science; Studies in Creation; and Life, Man, and Time. Furniture Factory Marks Twenty Years 01 Expansion; Claims National Market "The Lord has especially blessed us here. We only hope we can show our appreciation by the quality of merchandise we produce," declared Mr. R. J. Device, manager of the College Furniture Factory. Union College furniture is bought and sold from the Canadian border to Mexico, from the East Coast to the West Coast. Permanent show room and major markets for it can be found in Dal- las, Atlantic City, New York, Den- ver, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Kansas City, Omaha, Minneapolis, and Miami. About seventy-five items of hard- wood furniture are manufactured. It can be bought unfinished or in one of three stained finishes. "We are manufacturing the nic- est furniture of any denominational factory," stated Mr. Device. "Through the war years from 1940 to 1950 our growth was gradual but always favorable. Our annual maximum sales for these years were $169,000. During this period I was in the service. After my discharge, I returned here and from 1950 to 1960 our sales have continued to climb. Our annual sales per year are now in the $600,000 bracket," said Mr. Device. "We are never satisfied. We owe so much to the Lord. We are con- tinually looking for new styles, newer methods, labor saving de- vices, and constantly improving our quality with quantity in the finish- ed product," remarked Mr. Device. "Not only have we improved our product, but we have also improved our worker conditions. We have our blower system that constantly fil- ters the air at the rate of 28,000 cubic feet per minute. Last year we installed an electronic glue machine capable of completing a cycle every forty-five seconds. Various im- provements are accomplished by suggestions from our employees," stated Manager Device. In 1940 the factory consisted of Mr. Device, one assistant, and a few students. Twenty full-time em- ployees and eighty students com- prise the factory personnel this school year. "For example, we have provided (Continued on Page 3) Students Elect Experienced Presidents [To [Lead | Classes Each having past experience at presidency; Gerald Colvin, senior; Dick Dale, junior; Don Nicolay, sophomore; and Leslie Werner, fresh- man, was chosen to head his class in the student preference elections of October 28.

Miss Bell was vice-presi- dent of her sophomore class, and vice-president of the ASB at South- western Junior College before com- ing to Union. Sabbath School and MV have also been among her time consuming extra currlcular activi- ties. Gerald Colvin—president of the class of '61 is a man on the go. Added to his responsibilities as class leader is his duty as first se- mester Sabbath School superin- tendent. In his senior year at Southwestern Junior College Gerald was president of the Stu- dent Association. This, his second year at Union, finds him completing scholastic work for BA. degrees in English, history and religion. He is originally from Olla, Louisiana. Charles Griffin—will graduate this spring with a B.A. in religion de- gree. His minors will be in his- tory and education. A Shreveport, Louisiana southerner, Mr. Griffin had attended Union College for a year and a summer before re- turning this year. Enthusiastic- ally supporting the Missionary Vol- unteer activities this year as senior leader, he has also served as Sab- bath School superintendent and re- ligious vice-president of the SA at SWJC. Richard Hammond—Is known for blowing his horn, (trumpet, for clarification). But this year, be- cause of his heavy schedule he has not joined instrumental musical groups. Extra-curricular other than musical actvities have been varied; among them are art editor of the GOLDEN CORDS and Pastor of Sig- ma Iota Kappa. "Dick" is major- ing in religion and minoring in his- tory. Hailing from Silverton, Colo- rado, he is completing his fourth year at Union this year. Jeriel Howard—who is looking for a B.A. degree in Chemistry in June, comes to Union College from El Campo, Texas. He is the pastor of the class of '61, and the associate MV leader this year. He acted as parliamentarian of the ASB at SWJC before coming north la3t year. Minors in religion and English will complement the science major of this pre-medical student. Arnt Krogstad—stands tall in the repesentation of the land of a thou- sand lakes, and specifically his home town, Calloway, Minnesota. Since coming to Union in '56, Arnt has been president of Sigma Iota Kappa, sgt-at-arms of the junior class, and president of the GOLDEN CORDS for the past two years. This year he is treasurer of the senior class. Graduation day brings him a B.S. degree in Business Administra- tion with minors in history and sec- ondary education.

"Twelfth Night," an annual cele- bration held in Italy, will be the theme of the banquet. The story of "Twelfth Night" will be woven into the program. Italian food and decorations will set the mood for the evening. Cost for the banquet will be $2. No corsages will be necessary since flowers will be presented at the door. CLOCK TOWER November 11, 1960 The Trick's in thefMixj A man once wanted to go into business for himself. He knew a little of the baker's trade and de- cided that was the profession for him. His specialty was to be cakes— all types and sizes of cakes. Because he understood some of the psychol- ogy of human behavior, he knew that he should become skilled in decorating his cakes. People would be attracted by the beautiful ex- terior, and they would buy them. A very eminent professor was conducting a course in decorating techniques, so the aspiring baker enrolled. He was told about the use of color combinations. Much discus- sion time was given to the selecting of cake ornaments. During this time he was also taking a course in modem advertising. He joined a seminar group that was considering salesmanship methods. He became a member of the Bakers of Tomor- row Club. In fact, the only course related to his field that he didn't find time to take was Principles of Baking. Business was good that first day. The customers were attracted by his eye-catching advertisements. The rows of uniquely beautiful cakes brought forth comments of delight. His cakes were purchased— every last one of them. But after that first day business began to drop quickly. His customers found that beneath the beautiful exterior was a very low quality cake. There was nothing wrong with his ad- vertising skill. There was nothing wrong in his carefully studied tech- niques of decorating. But his cake baking skill itself was very inferior. A Seventh-day Adventist young person wanted to share his religion with others. He attended a Chris- tian college. He took classes in methods of presenting his faith. He learned all the ways to get around objections people might bring up. He studied speech and writing so he would be sure to "put his best foot forward." The only thing this student didn't have time for was the development of his own person- al Christian experience. Years later when he was far from the college, he wondered why so few were con- verted through his witnessing. Spot-LIGHTReport Upon overhearing a conversation between two South Hall residents, I couldn't help joining in and sym- pathizing with their problem. The subject of their discussion was getting enough sleep at night, because they got to sleep so late. Evidently this is a problem that is getting worse as time passes. As studies become more involved, the average student has a tendency to stay up a little later at night to finish them. The parlors, (which are located only on first and second floors in South Hall), are inadequate to ac- commodate the number of students studying late for some particular evenings. To remedy this situation, students take a chair out in the hall and study under the lights there. Usually a fifteen minute to an hour "bull session" ensues, with the usual amount of laughing and talking so that those already in bed find it impossible to go to sleep until the confusion subsides. Such was the case of the two young men previously mentioned. What to do about it —In the opinion of many students, this pro- blem could be eliminated if the lights were left on all night or at least until midnight. Not only would this simplify the problems of those who work until eleven o'clock, but it would also eliminate the noise in the halls. Everyone would stay in his room and accomplish what was necessary before retiring. As a college student, I believe that by the time young people reach college-age, they are fully capable of knowing when to turn off the lights, depending on the preparation necessary for their classes. It has been rumored that the ad- ministration is considering grant- ing this privilege on a trial basis. If so, the rest of the project will be left to the students to make sure the privilege is not withdrawn. A good point of view—My special congratulations to "Ole" for his opinion on our school "emblem." I agree wih him that a change should be considered, but this will in no way affect my ardent love for pea- nuts and peanut-butter. After all, if it were not for peanuts, where would "Skippy" be today? One last comment on "Once Over Lightly" by Ole of the last issue- how about seeing more of it? Leditors ... £zam Smpts Dear Editor, I would like to suggest that be- fore class elections next year some policy be made for the way in which the election is conducted. I think this is particularly necessary for the junior and senior classes. My suggestion is that the nomi- nations be made by secret ballot. We did this for our president and I felt it worked very well because each class member was able to nominate. When this was done away with for lack of time, only a few people were able to nominate and some who had their hands up a long time wer< never recognized. I think that these elections ar. important enough to take a littk more time and do them right. If someone has a good suggestion I'd like to hear it. Sincerely yours, Junior Class member P.S. The excellent thought con- tained in the editorial was not lost to me. Success in anything is the result of determination, hardwork and more hard work.

I hate Mondays. It seems a shame that after spending a whole week finishing off the last one we just have to start all over again. Sun- days I like fine (I don't work on Sundays). You can really relax— forget that giant test in Entomol- ogy, those quizzes in European His- tory and that four page assignment in Organic. But Mondays!! Everything from Monday on looks forward to Sunday and getting back to the old grind of resting again. But from Monday —work, work, work. Monday even starts off all wrong. Getting up for worship is probably one of the most excruciating ex- periences known to man.

Alio published once during June and August. By Jerry Aso that I mind going to worship—but having to get up in the morning! I really think the teachers feel the same way about Mondays, too Some of them plan on being in a mean mood. They even deliberately schedule tests for first period in spite of the fact that they know we need at least three days to get back into the swing of things. Things are bad enough if the week-end has been a good one, but if not, look out! When you're think- ing how to forget about Monday any number of things can happen to put you in a bad mood. Such trifles as forgetting about a date, walking for the lineup on the side- walk for dinner in the cafeteria, a Sabbath school teacher or stu- dent who deliberately tries to em- barrass you, getting an upset sto- mach during the Saturday night program, or having to work on Sun- day. I suppose there must be a sunny side to the situation, and as far as I can see the only optimistic view Is that after Monday, comes Tuesday, after Tuesday. . .. While thinking how the school might be improved I came upon a most fantastic idea. If this idea were put into practice I'm sure more parents would send students to Union. Give trading stamps. People now go across town for S&H Green Stamps and spend more get- ting there than they receive for the stamps. One last thought. Someone has said that a fool and his money are soon parted, but I'd like to know how in the world he got it in the first place. Before After Results tions Seminar at Union College expecting a venerable but sagging ruin—knowing that it is one of our oldest denominational training centers. What a pleasant surprise it was to find instead a stately, well-kept school that you have every right to be proud of. Your campus speaks eloquently of an atmosphere that is beautifully parklike and dignified in every sense of the word. Your buildings are clean, in good repair, and some of your lush lobbies and assembly rooms would do credit to Holly- wood or Miami. Your students couldn't be more friendly or hospitable. I found that someone had even provided un- heard of hospitality in one of the rest rooms by thoughtfully leaving a bountiful supply of goodies such as grapes, cookies, potato chips, and even an ice cream cone! Seriously, the only unpleasant re- action I had during my stay was to the frequent reference I heard to "Peanut Hill." I had dif- ficulty in finding anyone who could tell me where this unsavory label originated, and I failed to find one "goober" plant on the campus, nor a single peanut sandwich on the cafeteria menu. Yet in your college directory— there in plain type—your students were labeled residents of "Peanut Hill." Even photos of every "pea- nut" were included! I was told that you also have sweaters bearing this ignoble trademark. Surely, it would seem that such an excellent college as you have here, with an outstanding history of educating many of our denomi- national leaders, physicians, and educators, that you would be re- ticent—to say the least—of per- petuating any appelation so un- dignified, childish and grammar- schoolish! From our PR Seminar class room I watched two boys dig a deep hole on your campus. I haven't the slightest idea what it was for, but it appeared just the right size for a grave. Whatever you plan to put in it, why not also include—with suit- able ceremony—the name of Pea- nut Hill. Bury it deep. It doesn't even deserve a marker to comme- morate it. Seriously and hopefully yours, F. W. Edwardy Riverside, Calif. Campus Clatter mV m Clarified by Clus May we digress from the usual Clarifying of Campus Clatter to Commenting on something of Con troversial Concern? The question has arisen, What feeling should we as Seventh-day Adventists hold in regard to mat ters which come to the fore each election year? What stand do citi zens of heaven take in regard to political matters? We are very fortunate in having inspired counsel leaving little doubt as to the course which should be followed. Silence is Golden "The Lord would have His people bury political questions. On these themes silence is eloquence."Funda mentals of Christian Education, page 475. There seem to be two main reasons why this instruction has been given to us. 1. Not Diverted—Having the task to prepare the world for a soon- coming Saviour, we should allow nothing to divert us from this task "The questions at issue in the world are not to be the theme of our con- versation. We are to call upon the world to behold an uplifted Sav- iour " F. E. 479 2. Unity—Should we not also do everything possible to retain unity? Satan is pleased when God's people are divided, and it apparently makes little difference to him whether it is politics or Pantheism. "Do not take part in political strife. Separate from the world, and re- frain from bringing into the church or school ideas that will lead to contention or disorder." F. E. 483. Few subjects bring people into dis- agreement—often unwittingly—as quickly and as easily as that of politics. Apathy Then? Is one to conclude then that he Is to manifest a spirit of indiffer- ence toward matters that are of Import in his world? This seems doubtful. We have been given specific counsel to take a decided stand on matters of injustice and the tem- perance question. "Keep your voting to yourself. Do not feel it your duty to urge every- one to do as you do." 2 S. M. page 337. This would indicate that there are times when one should vote. Conclusion. A careful study of the material available would indicate that al- though we should take an interest in the world about us we should exercise extreme caution in advo- cating political preferences or views. This would seem to be as true for individuals as it is for the church in general. Christ attempted to avoid in- volvement in the political problems of His day—His was a more impor- tant work. Can we find a better example? Motive At last we arrive at the motive behind the above treatise. This columnist found herself somewhat taken aback by the striking head- lines of the October 28 Clock Tower —"GOP Sweeps Mock Election." What impression does this leave with the reader? The fact that the GOP was victorious here could very easily be interpreted to mean that all Adventists (or at least 86.6%) are Republicans. This may or may not be true. Even if Adventists were 100% for one party, would it be of import in matters of eternal con- cern? On the contrary it would seem that only by maintaining a disinterested attitude in such mat- ters can we accomplish the task that has been set before us. But is the Clock Tower communi- cating a feeling of political prefer- ence to those about us? We refer you to the November 1, 1960 issue of the Lincoln Evening JournaL UNION COLLEGE BACKING GOP was the headline informing the front page reader of our mock election. Does this not present a partisan appearance? Our work for those about us ex- tends beyond a political election or issue. It would seem unfortunate to hinder our work as a church by advertising any opinions or polls which are of nothing more than passing interest. November 11, 1960 CLOCK TOWER Rifle Range in Jorgensen Hall Fires Impact Problems al Physics Students Contrasting the speed and Impact of bullets, a rifle range lab for general and college physics students was conducted last week by Tom Harper, lab instructor of the physics department. Two .22 caliber bullets, a short and a long rifle, were fired Into sections of cardboard spinning at thirty-one revolutions per second. The difference in speed between the missies was illustrated by the 33 degree arc formed by the path of the short as compared to the 27 degree arc of the long rifle. Impact was demonstrated by firing the short and the long rifle shells into a suspended block of wood. The distance of the resulting swing showed the greater power of the long rifle cartridge over that of the short. Witnessed by thirty-three students, the experiment was one of many planned experiments for physics lab, Harper declared. Mrs. Higgins Attends Economics Convention Mrs. Ruth Higgins, associate pro- fessor of home economics here, at- tended the sessions of the clothing and textile convention held October 27 and 28, at the LaSalle Hotel in Chicago. "I feel the convention contributed to the inspiration and professional growth of all present", stated Mrs. Higgins. "Outstanding to me was the keynote address by Doretta Hoffman, dean of the college of home economics of Kansas State University." Suggestions for work evaluation was the essence of the dean's talk. About two hundred were in at- tendance, recalled Mrs. Higgins. Delegates were mainly textile and clothing Instructors, textile and clothing retailers and textile and clothing research workers.

Officers Chosen In Band Organization A council form of organization has been traditional for the band, but a new practice of acting officers was adopted at this year's organiza- tional meeting. In the council form, a number of members were elected to meet for discussion of matters concerning the band. With the officer form the officers are elected to represent the views of the majority. Senior Jerry Thayer was elected president; sophomore Shirley Guf- fey, vice president; senior Sandra Julius, secretary; freshman Bob An- derson, treasurer; freshman Jerry Lange, band librarian; sophomore Helmer Swenson, band manager; and senior Jim Wilmot, student di- rector. First Appearance The band's first concert was giv- en in chapel Friday, November 4. Included in the half-hour program were "To a Wild Rose," the "Nut- megger's March," and the First Movement of Holtz's Suite. The Third and Fourth Movements will be presented at the regular band concert January 21. A band party to acquaint people was held at the home of Dr. Melvin Hill, chairman of the music depart- ment, Saturday, November 5. At least two more parties are planned for this semester and several more for next semester. A reception is scheduled after each concert. Next semester a picnic or an out- ing of some kind is planned. The band will take Its usual tour, this year to Colorado. WHAT THEY SAW—Jon Vietz and Roberto Pienado (l-r) operate the line saw in the milling department of the furniture factory.

E. Willmore Tarr from the bureau of public relations at the General Conference directed the seminar. To provide an underlying princi- ple for denominational endeavors and to aid in public relations as- pects of departmental, admlnistra- 11 v e and institutional programs were the two objectives of the sem- inar. Thirty-two students received two hours of credit each from either Andrews University or Union Col- lege, upon completion of the course. 14th Century Latin Manuscripts Authentic by Joe Grieg Dr. H. G. Relnmuth, professor of modern and Biblical Languages at Union, has a large library of books and documents written on the study of ancient languages. The oldest are several hand-printed sheets of parchment. Parchment was one of the mater- ials used for writing before what we know as paper was produced. It was made from the skins of animals. These skins were cut into sheets and made a very durable writing material. Dr. Reinmuth's parchments are of special interest to teachers and students of Union College because they are Biblical manuscripts of the gospels. They date back to the four- teenth and fifteenth centuries. The manuscripts, printed In La- tin, have been beautifully and pain- fully hand copied and show the deep devotion of some monk who felt it God's will that he spend long hours copying the sacred scriptures. Among these manuscripts Is a musical composition written with neumes, the national signs of the Middle Ages. Dr. Reinmuth obtained these parchments in Germany while he was serving in the educational field of military government. He brought them to the United States when he returned. These manuscripts are occasion- ally used in the Greek and Ancestry of the Bible classes. According to Dr. Relnmuth, anyone desiring to examine them Is always welcome to stop by his office. Dean Tells Success Formula Three main factors that deter- mine success in life are heredity, environment, and the Influence of God In the Individual's life, Dr. L. W. Welch, dean of student affairs, advised at freshman convocation Wednesday, October 26. This was the first of a series of freshman convocations to be held once a month on Wednesday during the chapel period. The purpose Is to give helpful pointers to fresh- men to guide them through the first year at Union. Mr. Morse Hospitalized By Slight Heart Attack Mr. Bryan Morse, operator of the the jewelers and stationers store across the street from the campus, was taken to Bryan Memorial Hos- pital as the result of a heart attack Tuesday morning. Dr. Randal N. Ochs, attending physician, states that his condition, though not considered serious, de- mands that he remain in the hos- pital several days. Senior Chem. Majors Discuss Seminar Topic "Seminar in Chemistry," an upper division required course for chem- istry majors, permits the senior student to become acquainted with topics of current Interest in chem- istry. The class period is predominately a series of oral reports and discus- sions by the students, said Dr. Rene Evard, assistant professor of chem- istry, who teaches the course. In order to give the majors experience in writing, a term research paper is also required. These written reports give each class member the opportunity to delve deeper into subjects that are not fully explained in the textbooks. In some cases, the student may ex- plore newer and more specialized fields. Some of the class members have already given their oral reports. Carlyle Welch spoke on the "Syn- thesis of Nicotine," Sylvia Dahl on "Nucleic Acids," Gary Nowlan on "Synthesis of Reserpine," Jeriel Howard on "Fluoridation and Tooth Decay." Two reports are still scheduled for the future, Larry Kroll's "Pro- tine Synthesis" and Andy Bos- kind's "I'm still hunting for a top- ic." Dr. Rene Evard hopes that next year this one hour, one semester course may be expanded Into a full year class. Under this plan, the first semester would not be chang- ed, but during the second semester the student would perform labor- atory experiments. For his term paper he would write his findings and conclusions. An invitation to anyone interest- ed in this class is also given by Dr. Evard.

The win boosted the Gophers to an undisputed crown. They not only managed to go undefeated in con- ference competition, but, when the stars from the other teams joined forces in this last-chance battle, they managed to stave off the at- tack and pull on to victory. Hats off to the Gophers—they've played top, consistent ball and have earned their berth as champions. If you gals have been having trouble finding that guy of yours this week, I suggest you check the gym. The basketball goals went up Sunday and everybody seems to be taking advantage of it. However, before the basketball season gets officially under way, we have a double-round robin of vol- leyball to run off. If "double-round robin" is confusing you, ask the nearest person within earshot to explain it and you'll probably find you're not alone. Come out to the gym on Wednesday nights between 7:30 and 10:00, watch a few games, and see if the team captains can explain it to you. We've all seen how successful this year's football program has been, so let's carry that same spirit on throughout the year and make this year "tops" sports-wise. LAST EMBERS BLAZE HIGH—As Operation Fireside closes next week, stu- dents prepare for a final effort. Lolita Clements (extreme right) gives study as CT readers take a sneak preview. Budget, Evangelism, CME, Foremost at Fall Council "The largest budget in the his- tory of the denomination, $29,000, 000, was voted upon and approved at General Conference Fall Coun- cil," stated President D. J. Bieber upon his return. "Possibly the largest single action taken was an intensive coordinated evangelism program. Consideration of the College of Medical Evangel- ists and its future, extensive plans were voted to greatly strengthen Seventh-day Adventist medical col- leges on the Loma Linda and Los Angeles campuses," declared Presi dent Bieber. Western Coast University, which was previously voted by the Fall Council, received its official name Loma Linda University. A complete graduate study in the doctor's field of science is now available. 'Thus by this action, Loma Linda University and Andrews University, two new universities of higher level have come into existence," said President Bieber. THE 'POLAR BROGUE" . . . ...

Dick would seem to follow the in- clination of his missionary brother in Africa and his brother who is a minister in California by majoring in religion. Vocal duets are common for him and his wife, Nina (nee. Speed). In class matters Dick sees officers as coordinators and feels each class member should have equal say. Don Nicolay Coming to Lincoln last year meant returning to his birthplace for Don Nicolay. Denver, Colorado, has been Don's home for the most of his life. With chemistry and biology min- ors, Don majors in religion. Sports and music hold interest for Don. "I like to ski and hike especially," he says. Singing as well as playing the cornet, piano and organ are Don's enjoyment. In his new office he recognizes "a need to live up to responsibility." Leslie Werner His fifth year of class presidency began as Leslie Werner entered of- fice. Leslie was class president for three years at Sheyenne River Academy and for one year at Drisco High School, both in North Dakota. "It makes you feel good knowing your class has confidence in you," commented Leslie, "you hope you can plan something the majority will enjoy."

Nebraska Book and Bible House 4745 Prescott Open Sundays Critic Judges Concert Artists' Performance As Evidence of Dexterity and Subtleness by Ruth Ann Hagen The ability of the Concert Artists of Pittsburgh to achieve dexterity and subtleness of interpretation was made evident throughout their performance Saturday evening, Oc- tober 29. The first number was Beethoven's Sonata in F Major, Op. 5, No. 1, for Piano and Cello. Especially intrigu- ing in this work is the contrapuntal technique employed in the Allegro vivace movement, where a graceful figure is delicately tossed between the cello and piano parts. In "The Alcotts" (from the Con- cord Sonata), Henry Spinelli, pia- nist, demonstrated his ability to achieve shadings and musical feel- ing without displaying startling technique. This atonal music by Charles Ives, a contemporary American composer, left the audi- ence less favorably impressed. James Lumberger, described as a counter-tenor, displayed rich tonal quality rarely found in this type of voice. The range was more that of a male soprano, reaching to B-flat, nearly two octaves above middle C. His first two numbers, Glass House Canticle and Throw Roses, by Clif ford Taylor, were difficult to ap- preciate because of the unfamiliar harmony. Also, the words were hard to understand. The clarinetist, James Wilson, and pianist Spinelli performed these numbers with Mr. Lumberger. Although he seemed to have some trouble with his instrument, Mr. Wilson produced a full, resonant tone. Along with the other members of the group, he portrayed not only audible, but also much physical ex- Funeral Services Here For Student's Daughter Funeral services for two year-old Barbara Uhrig were held at 9:30 a.m., October 31 in the College View Seventh-day Adventist church. Barbara, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Uhrig of 4928 Bancroft, died of strangulation- Friday night despite efforts of a fire department resuscitator crew and a doctor. Uhrig is a Union College student Police said that the parents told them Barbara had fallen off a bed earlier in the evening and cut her tongue. Her mother gave her" a children's aspirin to calm her fus- sing. The child began to choke. The parents tried to revive her then rushed her to a registered nurse who lives a few doors away from their apartment. A doctor and the resuscitator team were sum- moned, but Barbara could not be saved. Those from Union College assist- ing in the funeral were the Union- aires, Mr. and Mrs. Dick Dale, Bren da Bradley, Bill Divine, Rex Turner, and Bob Forbes. Elder M. W. Dem ing, College View pastor, was in charge. The Uhrigs have one other child, five month-old John Jr. (HAT - H - NIBBLE The Following Individuals Are Entitled to 1 Free Malt by Bringing This Ad With Them.

The Strauss numbers, Allerseelen, Morgen, and Zueignug, changed the style from contemporary to that of the Romantic period. Singing in German, Mr. Lumberger shed feel- ings ranging from anquish to joy, entirely through the universal lang- uage of music. Following the intermission, the counter-tenor sang Mozart's Alle- luia. Here, unveiling his great vocal flexibility, accuracy and eveness of tonal quality, he produced the high- light of his evening's presentation. The final number was Brahms Trio in A minor, Op. 114, for Piano, Clarinet and Cello. This four-move- ment work, one of the few compo- sitions written for these instru- ments, gives each part equal impor- tance. The piano seemed to over- balance the cello at times, perhaps due to the auditorium or stage ar- rangement. In this heavier work, young Roger Drinkall, cellist, played with amazing agility and smoothness of tone, Spinelli also demonstrated sure technique and control, products of his limitless hours of practice. Many thanks to these young (average age is 26) artists for their fine contribution to musical growth and enjoyment. Lecturer-Author,Booth Presents Photos--Fun Dr. Ernest S. Booth presented a color film intitled, "Glacierland, the Story of the Canadian Rockies," Saturday night in the college audi- torium. The film included shots of the glaciers, the big game animals, wild flowers, and rushing cataracts. It was filmed in Banff, Yoho, and Jasper national parks. Leaving his family behind, Booth packed into many remote areas in order to film scenes of Maligne Lake, the big horn sheep and other natural wonders. During his twenty years as teach- er and head of the biology depart- ment at Walla Walla college, Booth began to devote more time to pho- tographing nature in connection with his teaching and research. "For the last few years he has combined his love of photography with traveling, lecturing, and pub- lishing," stated Neil W. Roland, associate professor of biology. Booth has written books and pamphlets about birds and has col- lected mammels for the American Museum of Natural History. His next trip will be to South America to take movies for the Inter-Amer- ican division.
