FESTIVAL OF THE HOLY  
SCRIPTURES  
By G. L. Caviness  
The importance of the knowledge  
and love of the Bible was made  
clear to even the most casual ob-
server of the North American Youth 
Congress held at Atlantic City re-
cently. At any time of the day or 
evening young  conventioners could  
be seen, Bible in hand and delegate  
ribbon flying, on the famous board- 
walk on their way to or from a 
meeting in the convention hall,  
which has seen many types of 
gatherings but never one like this.  
Even the renovation and "face lift- 
ings" going on in the building itself  
seemed symbolic.  
There were complaints from the  
operators of certain types of estab- 
lishments that they had no busi-
ness. They said, "All these kids do 
is eat and go to meeting." If the 
owners of the liquor stores had at- 
tended the national American Tem- 
perance Society contest, they would 
have understood better. If the en-
tertainers had witnessed the firm  
dedication of over a thousand  
young men who answered the  call  
made by Elder Minchin of the Gen- 
eral Conference Missionary Volun- 
teer  Department, for those who felt  
called by God to enter the gospel 
ministry, they would have seen the 
reason there was so little need for  
amusements. If the operators of the  
swimming, boating, and beach es-
tablishments had heard and seen 
the fourteen foreign missionary 
couples under appointment joined 
by many others who hope to go 
later, they would have known that  
the water and beaches hold no 
terrors for these young crusaders  
for the cross. The ocean to them 
is a path to their life's ambitions; 
the shores they seek are foreign  
shores. They will operate boats and  
almost any other mechanical de- 
vice known to man in order to  
reach and bring to Christ those who 
sit in darkness.  
The fact that food and sleep were  
rather unimportant incidentals to  
this crowd of young people, remind- 
ed at least one visitor of Gideon's 
army lapping up water while keep- 
ing their objective clearly in view. 
Not that the physical arrangements  
for the congress had been neglected 
in any way. Both at Convention 
Hall itself, in the Loma Linda  
and Worthington Foods counters, 
where thousands ate between meet- 
ings, and in the restaurants in 
town, where Seventh-day Adventist 
menus were featured, provision had  
been made for the physical bread; 
but the bread of life offered in mes- 

sages brought by H. M. S. Richards, 
W. A. Fagal, Andrew Fearing, F. L. 
Peterson, and twice by General  
Conference President, R. R. Fighur,  
was certainly uppermost in the  
mind of the youth. The almost six 
thousand box lunches paid for and 
prepared before the Sabbath were  
monument to efforts to "keep  
the Sabbath holy." Most of the rest  
of the fifteen thousand in attend- 
ance Sabbath morning had brought 
lunches from home on Friday.  
The fact that there are many  
gifts but one Spirit was well illus-
trated in the display area by the  
booths representing different  
avenues of Christian service. The  
literature ministry in the produc-
tion (Pacific Press and Review and 
Herald), distribution (Book and 
Bible House), and sale (literature  
evangelism) phases held attention 
in the center. Medical work as 
shown in the General Conference

231 ARE ENROLLED  
IN SUMMER SESSION  
Summer school on the U.C. cam- 
pus has successfully survived nine-
weeks tests with an enrollment of 
231.  
This figure includes 21 students  
on the Colorado campus, part of the  
41 students who are now touring-
Europe under the instruction of  
Miss Merlene Ogden and Dr. R. K. 
Nelson, and many elementary and  
secondary teachers who are back 
for a few "refresher" courses.  
Courses are being offered in Art,  
Biology, Chemistry, Education and 
Psychology, English, Greek, History,  
Home Economics, Mathematics,  
Music, Physical Education, Religion,  
Secretarial Science, Speech, and a  
special six-week Library Science 
Workshop.  
Union College Graduates  
Elected to Senior Class  
Offices at C.M.E.  
LOS ANGELES—Three graduates  
of Union College have been elected 
to serve as officers for the senior  
class in medicine at the College of  
Medical Evangelists for the 1960-61  
school year.  
The three young men, Carl L.  
Bauer of La Center,  Washington,  
Kenneth L. Dedeker of Hastings, 
Minnesota, and Philip Henry Reis- 
wig of Manfred, North Dakota, all 
received their undergraduate de- 
grees from Union in the spring of  
1957. Since the fall of that same  
year, they have been enrolled in  
the School of Medicine at CME pur-
suing studies leading to the degree  
of Doctor of Medicine.  
Mr. Dedeker was chosen vice- 
president, Mr. Reiswig, parliamen- 
tarian, and Mr. Bauer, chaplain.  
The senior class in medicine for  
1961 includes 88 students.  

Former President Hartman Dies in Kansas  
New Wing of  
South Hall Ready  
For Fall Occupancy  
They'll be ready! Yes, according  
to plans, forty-six new student  
rooms will be ready for the young  
men of South Hall to move into  
next September. There will be two  
infirmary rooms also in the new  
wing, though these may not be 
ready quite so soon. There will be 
built-in desks and bookselves and  
a sink in each room, similar to the  
arrangement in Rees Hall. Differ- 
ent from those in the main part  
of the dormitory are the doors,  
door-jambs, and trim, all of oak  
instead of cottonwood with birch  
doors. Another feature felt to be 
an improvement is the use of quarry  
tile, rather than ceramic tile, in  
the halls.  
It is hoped that by Christmas the  
cafeteria, too, may be finished. Mr. 
Dunn is now ordering the new  
equipment, for this must all be 
decided on before the plumbing can 
be done. The new wing is to house 
the kitchen, a ladies' lounge, and 
an office. The kitchen being used 
at present will be the young men's  
worship room, and the green room 
will be extended where the ladies'  
lounge is now.  
Academy 
Groundbreaking  
Ground will be broken this fall  
for the new academy building,  
which will be situated beside the  
Helen Hyatt Elementary School. 
The architect, Steve Cook, has been 
hired and plans are being drawn.  
Ned Saunders is to be in charge 
of construction. According to plans, 
the classrooms should be ready for  
use in the fall of 1961.

Acceptances Up  
Over Last Year  
Student acceptances are already  
six weeks ahead of what they were  
at this time last year. As of July 10, 
688 applications had been fully pro-
cessed and accepted and thirty-one  
more were ready to be finalized  
The new wing on South Hall is  
making it possible to accept with- 
out difficulty all qualified men ap- 
plicants. Some girls, however, have  
already been put on a waiting list,  
as all the rooms in Rees Hall have 
been reserved. It is believed that  
because of drop-outs it is quite like 
ly that these girls, too, will be able  
to get into the dormitory shortly 
after the fall term begins. The 
college is continuing to accept 
lady dormitory students and will  
provide other housing arrange-
ments as may be neccessary. Res- 
ervations for rooms in Rees Hall  
should be sent in with applications;  
they will be honored in the order of  
the date they are received. The $10  
deposit may be refunded up to  
September 1.

To promote the development of  
body, mind, and character is the 
goal of the Loma Linda "Gymnics"  
who presented their program 
"Physical Panorama" at Union 
Saturday evening, July 2.  
The "Gymnics" under the direc- 
tion of Gene Wilson—Senior dental  
student at C.M.E .—and Bob Kalua—  
Junior Physical Education major  
from P.U.C.—came to U.C. as a part

of a three week tour which included  
Youth's Congress and 8 other pro- 
grams.  
The touring team consists of 15  
boys and 5 girls who, to reach the 
optimum in physical fitness, main-
tain a strict training program and  
diet—no sugar, no refined cereals—  
for two months preceding, and dur-
ing the touring program.  
Outstanding numbers on the

agenda were Gene and Bob's Duo 
Chair Act, Gene's Block Act, and  
the witty, though extremely moral-
istic, health readings given by 13- 
year old M.C. Ronnie Walden.  
The group presents denomina- 
tional programs, only, and it is the 
aim of Gene and Bob to establish 
several recreation centers for Ad-
ventist youth.  

Harvey C. Hartman, eighteenth  
president of Union College died of 
an accident at La Crosse, Kansas, 
July 11.  
Professor Hartman, who at the  
time of his death was administrator 
of the Boulder Sanitarium, was  
spending a few days at the old  
home in Kansas with his mother.  
While driving a tractor the ma- 
chine struck rough ground, threw  
him and ran over him crushing his 
legs and causing internal injuries. 
He lay for about forty minutes 
while the driverless tractor con- 
tinued to make broad circles in the 
field. When he failed to come to  
dinner his father went to look for  
him, and learned of the accident.  
Professor Hartman rallied and  
for a time hope was held for his  
recovery but he was too seriously  
injured to survive the ordeal.  
Professor Hartman was graduated  
from Union College in 1921 and 
taught at three academies in Union 
College territory: Sheyenne River, 
Enterprise, and Plainview. H e  
served as principal of Plainview  
and Oak Park academies and in the 
fall of 1935 became business man-
ager of Union College. In 1946 he 
responded to the call of the Mis-
souri Conference, built Sunnydale 
Academy and served as its first 
principal.  
Then came a two year term as  
business manager of Walla Walla 
College, after which he was elected 
president of Union College and  
served from 1950 to 1957.  
President Hartman was a-builder.  
He considered the building of the 
Union College Library his most out-
standing achievement. In the  
depths of the depression he led out  
in soliciting a large portion of the 
money for this first large building  
erected on the campus since the  
college was built.  
As business manager or president  
he had a hand in planning or ac-
tually constructing every building  
on the campus except the adminis- 
tration building, power house, and 
print shop.  
President Hartman, while teach- 
ing at Sheyenne River Academy, 
met Miss Maudie Carr of Milton  
Junction, Wisconsin and they were  
married August 2, 1922. They have 
one daughter, Marceline, who is 
married to Calvin Biggs.  
President Extends  
Convention Trip to  
Vacation  
President and Mrs. D. J. Bieber  
were in Boston, Massachusetts from 
June 21-29—except for a week-end  
in Atlantic City for Youth's Con- 
gress—for an institute of college  
administrators. This was held at  
the Business Administration Grad- 
uate School of Harvard University.  
The Biebers, who will return to  
hot, humid Nebraska on July 15,  
are now vacationing at Acadia Park, 
Bar Harbor, Maine.

EUROPEAN TOUR  
"Hounding the Comer"  
It is  not my intention  to prophesy—only  to call  attention  to proph- ecy. In the thirteenth  chapter of Revelation  we have described  a power  that would  utter blasphemy  against  God  and that would  blaspheme  His name and His  tabernacle  and them that dwell  therein.  It is  de- clared that all  who dwell  upon the earth shall  worship  him  (the beast)  with  the exception  of those whose names are written  in  the Book of  Life.  
Without  question,  there is  a close  connection  between the term  "tabernacle"  and those whose names are written  in  the Book of Life.  It is  through the intercession  of Christ  in  the heavenly  sanctuary that  the names of the faithful  suppliants  are entered in  the Book of Life.  
Global events and circumstances  today are rapidly  shaping  up to- ward the climax  of these prophecies.  Soon—probably  much sooner than  most are suspecting—every  living  person shall  have to face the decision  fraught with  eternal  consequences. Will  it  be going  along  with  the  world and submitting  to the hierarchical  demands of the beast, or will  it be the decision  of heaven-born, free moral  agents to stand for the  right  while  it  seems that the irresistable  global  current is  against  us.  
The second beast of Revelation  13, with  the original  lamb-like  characteristics,  is  rapidly  preparing  to speak with  the dragon voice.  Whether or not this  will  be fulfilled  via  the political  trend that at  the present is  pointing  toward our November election  is  not for me  to say. But it  is  clear  to the careful  observer that the social,  moral,  religious,  and political  climate  of this  great nation  is  rushing  toward  the inevitable  end which  the apostle  prophesied.  
The germ containing  the fatal  outcome may be found in  the bold  declaration  of Monsignor  Francis  J. Lally  in  an editorial  of the Vatican  newspaper, L'  Osservatore  Romano, of May 17 last,  and quoted in  U. S.  News & World  Report of May 30, 1960. In his  editorial,  Lally  says that,  "The Catholic  can never overlook  the teaching  and instruction  of the  church; in  every field  of his  life  he must base his  private  and public  behaviour  on the guidance  and instructions  of the hierarchy.  ... On  the political  ground,"  he continues,  "the  problem  of colaboration  with  those who do not admit  religious  principles  may arise.  In that case it  is up to the ecclesiastical  authority,  and not to the choice  of the in- dividual  Catholic,  to decide  on moral  lawfulness  of such collaboration  In any event such confUct must be resolved  in  obedience  to the Church  as custodian  of the truth. ... It is  the duty of every Catholic  to bow  to those rulings  and those opinions,  even in  the field  of politics.  . . ."  Dr. John A. Mackay, commenting  on Lally's  article,  in  the July  4 issue  of the same publication,  defines  this  policy  of "clericalism"  as "the  pursuit  of power, especially  political  power, by a religious  hierarchy  carried  on by secular  methods and for purposes of social  domination."  "Clericalism,"  he continues,  "has  its  seat not in  the religious  rank and  file,  whether clergy  or laity,  though it  makes use of these, but in  the  Church's  hierarchy  and its  mighty  religious  orders. By constitutional  right,  these alone  control  its  affairs."  
From the pen of inspiration,  we are told  that, "By  the decree en- forcing  the institution  of the papacy in  violation  of the law  of God,  our nation  will  disconnect  herself  fully  from righteousness.  When Pro- testantism  shall  stretch her hand across the gulf  to grasp the hand  of the Roman power, when she shall  reach over the abyss to clasp  hands with  spiritualism,  when, under the Influence  of this  threefold  union,  our country shall  repudiate  every principle  of its  constitution  as a Protestant and republican  government and shall  make provision  for the propagation  of papal  falsehoods  and delusions,  then we may  know that the time  has come for the marvelous  working  of Satan and  that the end is  near."  <4T, p. 451)  
This statement is  of imminant  significance  in  view  of the fact that  this  autumn, probably  in  October,  the constitutionality  of Sunday laws  will be reviewed  by he Supreme Court of our nation.  In the light  of  these impending  issues,  it  seems no longer  up-to-date to say, "It  is  just around the corner,"  but rather, "It  is  now rounding  the corner."  Whether or not these scenes will  be enacted through a Protestant regime  or with  a Catholic  in  the White  House  is  not for us to say. The potentials  for the final  conflict  are present in  either  case.  
P. C. James, Chairman,  Department of Religion  
Summer—time for  what?  
The few short summer months of each year are thought of by  many as an assortment of different  worlds.  For some, the summer is  a  time  of rest and a time  to recuperate from the tight  and heavy schedule  of the daily  college  routine.  For some, the summer is  a time  for work—  even harder work than during  the school  year, a time  to catch up on  the time  spent studying.  To others, summer is  the best time  of all  to  pick up some courses lacking  in  their  outlined  program. For some, the  three months are devoted entirely  to fun and relaxation.  But under- lying  all  of this,  the summer is  something  that is  the same, or should  be the same to everyone. To most, summer is  a time  of rest of some  type. Rest is  technically  a time  in  which  we obtain  renewed vigor.  Can this  be said  of each of us?  
College,  as defined  by Webster, is  an association  of individuals  en- gaged in  a common pursuit.  How  often it  must seem to everyone, as  it very often does to me, that our campus lacks  a common goal  or a  "togetherness."  Quite  naturally,  our first  common goal  should  be our  Christian  experiences;  but this  picture  frequently  becomes very dim  in  comparison  to other sought-for ends.  
College  is  a place  of learning.  Actually  it  is  learning  to live,  and  to live  life  more fully.  But do we WANT to learn?  And do we DESIRE  to work closely  with  the faculty  and staff, attempting  to learn  from  their  passed years of experience?  
Summer should  be a time  of preparation.  It seems that the broad- est field  for us to prepare is  ourselves  and our attitudes.  We should  come to the campus at registration  time  with  renewed vigor  and with  our eyes soundly  set on our individual  goals  and our one collective  goal,  learning  to live  in  Christ  and in  this  world.  With  this  done, perhaps  it will  not be quite  so painful  to ask the question,  "What  is  this  college  for, and why am I here?"  Myrna Howe  

Five a.m. June 10, I960, found 43  
persons boarding a bus en route to  
tour the Eastern Hemisphere under 
the direction of R. K. Nelson. Before 
reaching the coast and boarding the 
steamship, Empress of France, stop- 
overs were made at Broadview  
Academy, E.M.C., and Oshawa Mis- 
sionary College in Ontario, Canada. 
On June 14 the group boarded the  
Empress of France in Montreal,  
Canada, for an anticipated adven- 
ture across the Atlantic Ocean. June  
21 found our travelers in Liverpool, 
England, without very many sea-
sick victims, although there were  
surely some.  
En route to Liverpool our adven- 
turous group was a day late in ar- 
riving because an ice berg forced  
them to change their planned route.  
By wiring ahead their mode of  
transportation was changed from 
train to bus. After things were back  
on schedule, they rode in a Dutch  
bus which they will use as transpor-
tation for all of their land travel  
in Europe.  
From Liverpool they took a night  
train from Carlisle to Birmingham.  
After visiting Newbold Missionary  
College, England, they journeyed on  
to Holland, Netherlands, Scottland,  
Denmark, and into Cologne, Ger- 
many. Fifteen from the group plan  
to fly from Copenhagen, Denmark 
to Berlin and on to Cologne, Ger- 
many, while the rest who stay on  
the bus will go to Hamberg and  
meet them at Cologne. Can't you  
just imagine yourself floating quiet- 
ly on a boat going down the Rhine  
looking at old castles all along the 
way stopping now and then to ven- 

By Bonnie  Campbell  
ture in to visit some of the more  
important ones?  
Next stop will be Switzerland,  
where they will soak in the vision 
of the splendid towering Alps, and 
the Black Forest; Austria, and  
Yugoslavia; and If they get out of  
Yugoslavia, Italy will be next.  
Italy will be interesting for them  
with its Leaning Tower of Pizza, 
Ruins of Pompeii, and also a visit 
with the Pope and a tour of the 
Vatican and St. Peters.  
In France our Unionites will see  
the Eifle Tower and the Arch of  
Triumph. Arter crossing the English  
Channel they will finally board the 
ship Empress of France and return  
to Montreal on the 12 of Aug.  
A letter from Mr. Nelson address- 
ed to the Editor related to us the 
Interest of a gentleman who desired 
greatly to tour Europe with the  
Union College group. A headline on  
this story could read: "Student  
Flies Atlantic Hoping to Join U.C. 
European Tour."  
Marvin Darrell of Overland Park,  
Kansas heard 3 days after the U.C.  
tour left for Europe that one mem-
ber had dropped out just before the  
group left Lincoln. Since he wanted  
badly to be with the group he flew 
to London and was waiting at New- 
bold College when the Unionites ar- 
rived. A man of such determination 
was, of course, welcomed as a new 
member. Dr. Nelson also mentioned  
FACULTY - AT WORK  
AND STUDY  
Summertime may be thought of  
by some as a vacation-time for  
teachers, but Union College teach-
ers, seem to be spending a very busy  
summer.  
During at least part of their time,  
seven of them are doing the all-
important job of recruiting students 
for the coming year, and with good  
results.  
Dean Culver is working in the

ENGEL HALL TO GET NEW 
ORGAN  
Seventeen thousand dollars has  
been voted to purchase a pipe organ  
to be installed in the recital hall 
of the music building. This is the 
realization of about five years of  
planning, and will fill what has  
been felt to be a definite lack in 
the music program.  
The whole recital hall is being  
refurbished, with new celling and 
stage being built to fit the organ.  
It is hoped that the organ will be  
ready for use by Thanksgiving.  
It will be a Wicks organ, built ac- 
cording to American Guild of Or-
ganists specifications.  It is con- 
temporary console in the display  
front, having the thirty-four sets 
of pipes showing. It will be two-
manu-al. will have glass leuvers, and  
will have a light oak finish, match-
ing the woodwork in the music 
building.  
Not all the good news from the  
music hall is still in the future 
Right now all the studios and halls  
are being re-painted in decorator 
colors, making a more cheery at-
mosphere for music students— as 
soon as the paint smell goes away. 
Two new janitor closets have been 
built and some new furniture has  
been ordered. Besides this, some  
new light fixtures are being Install- 
ed and numerous small improve 
ments are being made in this gen-
eral face-lifting.  
NEW STAFF MEMBERS  
Two more new members are to  
added to the Union College staff  
Mrs. D. R. Edwards is replacing 
Mrs. Bessie Dickinson as dean of  
women on the Denver campus.  
Roger Miller, a 1960 Union College  
graduate, is to be here one year,  in  
the absence of Robert  Reynolds,  
instructor in physical education.  

that the students were In the midst 
of their adventures. Even Queen  
Elizabeth's Royal train stopped in  
front of the U.C. group while they  
were waiting for a train at Carlisle, 
England. Later when some were  
taking pictures near Stowe-on-the- 
wold they were invited Into a  
thatched cottage for a visit.  
Dr. Nelson concluded by saying  
that the students could hardly be- 
lieve they were really in Europe 
meeting people from many lands  
and talking  to them.  
Upon their return to the States  
they will see Lake Champlain in  
Vermont, William Miller's home,  
New York, and back to dear Union  
College.  
This Sabbath, July 9, the touring  
group will stay in Darmstadt, Ger-
many, where they will spend an 
enjoyable time.  
I'm sure they will not be too tired  
to relate their experiences for un-
doubtedly, upon their return, they 
will be bubbling over with all sorts 
of news to tell us.

peared  in part in the booth shared  
by the General Department and all  
the colleges. The academies, too  
numerous to represent completely, 
were shown in the various confer- 
ence displays and that of the Pine  
Forge Institute. The College of 
Medical Evaneglists was one repre-
sentative of Seventh-day Adventist  
graduate and professional educa- 
tion. Not to be forgotten was the  
Home Study Institute.  
Busiest among the General Con- 
ference departmental booths was  
the religious liberty display, com- 
plete with the stocks in which to 
lock "Sabbath breakers" for sixty 
seconds after they had paid a 25£ 
fine and received a copy of profit-
able literature (Liberty magazine) 
to turn their minds from such sins 
as "letting children play on Sun- 
day," fishing on Sunday," and fail- 
ing to attend services on Sunday."  
The Bible theme was well brought  
out in the display of  the American  
Bible Society and a collection of 
rare Bibles, going back to 950 AX).,  
shown by Mr. Suhrie. In the meet- 
ings themselves the history of the 
Bible and the heroism of the 
makers, distributors, and believers  
of the Bible was brought out again 
and again. A fine knowledge of the  
Bible was shown by the winners of  
Bible quiz contests from all over  
North America. The Master Guides  
and leaders in progressive class-
work shared their program with the  
Medical Cadet Corps  in a colorful  
display of flags and uniforms. The 
intellectual side of life was not lost  
sight of in the twelve or more dis- 
cussion groups which met faithfully 
each morning except Sabbath.  
The Morning Watch was kept  
every morning by a large portion  
of the five thousand full time con- 
ventloners who were there from 
Tuesday to Saturday night, scarcely 
missing a meeting.  And they felt  
it was worth the effort to come, 
even the boy who pedaled his bi- 
cycle all the way from San Fran-
cisco to Atlantic City.

SOUND OFF  
It's not that we don't like Union,  
but no place is beyond improve- 
ment. So, — SOUND OFF!  
Question: What is your pet peeve—  
about life at Union this summer?  
Larry Houston—Dry history classes.  
(The question was only "What is  
your pet peeve?" then)  
Yvonne Bailey — The condition of  
of the Rees Hall sun porch!  
Robert Rankin—Too much to do 
and too little time to do it. 
Cleva Parker—The "younger gen-
eration" who gather by the room-
ful from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.,  
laughing, screaming, talking and 
making such an uproar that none  
of the neighbors can study. 
Roberta Roedel—People that ex- 
pect me to "fetch" them letters  
every day.  
James Fischer—The evenings are  
too short. The days are long enough,  
and the nights are long enough; 
but the evenings are too short.  
Bonnie Campbell—People who turn 
their radios on so loud that they  
nearly blast everyone out of the 
dorm, especially when they don't  
play good music in the first place. 
I have another big one, but I'd 
better not tell that one.  

Recent word from California  
brings the news that M. W. Newton, 
a Union College pioneer, has passed  
away. Mr. Newton was one of the 
most colorful and versatile char-
acters in the seventy-year history 
of the college.  
While a student at Battle Creek  
College, he taught the gymnasium  
classes. Interestingly enough, he  
formed the young men of that col-
lege into a military company which 
drilled with wooden guns and  
marched at the Battle Creek Mem- 
orial Day services.  
Shortly after his graduation he  
came to Lincoln to help in the 
opening of the new college. Since  
the street-car line had not been 
built out to College View, when he 
arrived on that rainy day in the 
spring of 1891 he rode the trolley to  
the end of 17th Street and putting  
his heavy suitcase over his shoulder,  
walked the nearly four miles across 
the muddy landscape to the clock 
tower. He became the accountant  
and assistant treasurer, keeping the  
records of the sale of lots in the 
new town.

under the power-house did not fur

The faculty of the Department  
of Nursing offer deepest sympathy 
to Dr. and Mrs.  George Takeno. The  
father of Mrs. Takeno recently 
passed away at the National Jewish  
Sanitorium in Denver after  a long  
illness.  
Miss Maizie Herin, formerly chair- 
man of Union College Department  
of Nursing, has accepted an ap-
pointment as Associate Secretary of  
the Medical Department of the  
General Conference of Seventh-day  
Adventists. She is consultant in  
nursing service and in nursing ed- 
ucation and is a member of the 
General Conference Committee.  
Miss Dorothy Martin has returned  
from Santa Barbara, California 
where she attended a workshop  
conducted by the Western Council 
on Higher Education in Nursing. 
Since Union College Department of  
Nursing is a Nebraska school and  
not in the western district its rep- 
resentatives attend by invitation  
and the courtesy of WCHEN. They  
have been gracious and welcoming  
and have given U.C. every courtesy.

nish enough water for the school 
family, M. W. Newton and Enoch 
Jenkins dug a well southeast of the 
power-house about where the 
southeast corner of the furniture  
factory is. They then made a tun-
nel from the bottom of the original 
well to the new one. This well did 
not supply enough water. Mr. New- 
ton dug another tunnel to the  
northeast in hope of striking a  
vein of water. When the cesspool 
at the college proved inadequate  
for such a large number of people, 
he it was who laid a sewer line to 
a point four blocks east of the Cap- 
itol building where it hooked onto  
the Lincoln line.  
Mr. Newton was the first engin- 
eer of College View. He planned the  
grades for the streets and sidewalks.  
He was the first fire-chief of the  
volunteer department and selected 
the fire equipment. The very first  
telephone in College View was put 
in by Newton between his house  
and his office at the college. When 
others wanted phones, he put in the  
first system in the town.  
He sent to Montgomery Ward,  
bought a bell,  and installed it in the  
clock tower. When the college  
bought ten acres for a cemetery a  
mile east of town, Newton laid it  
out and surveyed the lots.  
In 1896 he became the math- 
ematics teacher and continued in 
that position for the next eight  
years. This versatile man did not  
confine himself to this one teach-
ing field, however, for he set up a  
dark room, taught photography,  
and was hired by the University of  
Nebraska to spend a summer in 
Europe taking pictures for their 
collection. He also had the ability  
and took the time to lead the  
church choir.  
In the spring of 1907 Mr.  Newton  
left College View and not long  
afterward arrived at Pacific Union  
College where he helped with the 
beginning of that institution. He  
stayed over forty years and is  
honored as the "Grand Old Man of 
Howell Mountain."

1960 Graduating, Class Recognizes 33 Honor Students  Old Man of Howell Mountain  
Meetings for the convention were  
held in Engle Hall daily, June 15- 
17. Plans were made, improvements  
and changes discussed, and reward-
ing experiences were shared by all 
who attended.  
Rees Hall provided lodging for  
those attending the convention 
from out of town.  
Sabbath, June 18, a special of- 
fering in all the S.D.A. churches in 
the North American Division, was  
taken—this being the first special  
offering ever to be taken by the 
denomination for the Christian  
Record.  
Not a part of the convention, but  
an interesting high light of the 
Christian Record activities, was 
open house, Sunday, June 19. Invi-
tations were sent to Lincoln busi-
ness firms and pastors of the Lin- 
coln churches.  
Twenty minute guided tours were  
taken through the building, begin-
ning in the Braille Library, where 
a large display of appliances, books,  
and records for the blind, covered 
the major portion of the reading 
room; proceeding through the var-
ious offices; and terminating down- 
stairs, where Braille presses were 
demonstrated.  
Light refreshments were served.  

Of the 85 members of the 1960  
graduating class of Union College, 
38 per cent or 33 students received  
special honors.  
Graduating with Distinction,  
which requires an over-all average  
of 2.5 grade points were Lewis An- 

derson, Robert Bockmann, Michel  
Evard, Klause Gierth, Charles Ran- 
dall, Carolyn Rhodes, and David  
Sharpe.  
There were also 7 seniors who  
graduated with Departmental hon-
ors: Genevieve Dickerson, Glen

Christian Record Holds  
60th Anniversary Convention  
The Christian Record Benevolent  
Association for the Blind held its  
60th Anniversary Convention June  
15-17.  
A banquet held at the "Kopper  
Kettle," June 14, commenced the  
events of the convention week. 120  
people, including the Christian Re- 
cord Field Representatives from the 
North American Division, Christian 
Record office staff, and guests at-
tended.  
Among the guests present were:  
Hulen Walker, American Associa-
tion of Workers for the Blind Ex-
ecutive Director; George  Naylor  
from New York City, Field Repre-
sentative of the American Founda- 
tion for the Blind; Elder W. B. Oaks,  
Vice President of the S.DA. Gen- 
eral Conference and President of 
the Christian Record Board of 
Trustees; George Huse, General 
Conference Publishing Secretary;  
and Elder Theodore Carcich, S.D.A. 
Central Union President and Vice  
President of the Christian Record  
Board of Trustees.  
Mrs. C. J. Krieger, having served  
20 years for the Christian Record, 
and former dietition of Union Col- 
lege, was the honored guest at the  
banquet. In past years, among her  
many services, Mrs. Krieger has 
made quilts and sold candy for the  
blind.  
A narrative, presented by Elder  
C. G. Cross, Christian Record Man- 
ager, portrayed the history and 
progress of the Christian Record—  
from the founding of the associa- 
tion in 1899 by A. O. Wilson, through 
the years of expansion and devel-
opment to the present year—1960.  
A string ensemble led by Mr.  
Melvin Johnson provided music for  
the evening.


4  CLOCK TOWER  July 24, 1960  
The Usual Dag...  
The usual day begins at about  
6:30 in the morning (that is unless 
you're a night clerk at Rees Hall  
like Alice Nelson, then it begins at  
midnight.) Since breakfast is served  
at 6:45, you have to really hustle if  
you're a sleepy head like me. But  
it's really not too bad, because 
everyone else in the breakfast line 
seems to be as sleepy as I am; so  
I really don't think they can tell  
that I just got up ten minutes ago.  
Anyway, as I said we have break-
fast.  
The first class is 7:30 and every- 
one pities those that have to look 
alert at that hour. However, many  
manage to do it—day after day.  
Take that field nature class. Why 
some of  those young people catch  
bugs on their way to class. Actually,  

they catch them any time of the  
day or night they happen to see 
one; and it's nothing unusual to  
see an otherwise dignified looking  
teacher chasing a lightening bug  
after the sun goes down.  
There are two classes of people  
here this summer.—The workers  
and the studiers. Of course, there  
are those nonconformists who try 
to be both; but for categorical pur-
poses the above two classes are it. 
It's really not too hard to tell the 
difference. The workers come to 
meals late, or sneak in early; the 
studiers eat slowly and are forever  
asking for your used up jelly-cups  
to use for water-color containers 
the following school year. But each 
group helps to offset the other.  
Anyway, I started talking about  

Coming Events  
What are you going to do Satur- 
day night? Now that depends on 
which Saturday night you mean. 
On the bulletin board in the ad  
building is a list of things planned 
for the summer. Have you seen it?  
It's shy, it seems—sidling over to  
one edge of the bulletin board in 
a rather inconspicuous place. And  
then, not all of us go over to the 
ad building much.  
Due to a great deal of interest in  
some other things for the 9th, the 
watermelon feed and games are 
being switched to  July 16. This  
leaves:  
the usual day. Well, classes con- 
tinue until 9:35 at night. Of course, 
if you work the working day ends 
about 6; and then you can amuse  
yourself by eating, playing tennis,  
using the swimming pool, seeing if  
you can keep one of the studiers 
from studying, and other such 
things.  
Conventions are always livening  
up the campus. Atlantic City seems 
to be losing its popularity as Amer-
ica's convention city and the Union 
College Campus seems to be attra- 
tive. Anyway, it seems as if we are 
having our share of visitors.  
The general attitude of our cam- 
pus this summer is exceptionally  
good. However, I must remark that  
I have noted a marked difference  
in the enthusiasm of the pizza lov-
ers from last summer. Why you 
hardly smell that delectable Ital-
ian's answer to American burgers  
any more. Maybe it's just been too 
cool, lately. July has  never been so  
cool in Nebraska. Must be some of 
Alaska evaporating in the summer  

heat and sending down the cool  
breezes.  
The activities committee is doing  
wonders planning our Saturday 
night entertainment. Just to name  
a few: miniature golfing, lawn  
party, and the "Gymnics." A water-
melon feed is coming up and every-
one is eagerly waiting.  
The cool Student Center is faith- 
fully patronized by our summer  
students. Perhaps the air condi-
tioner is an attraction.  
I have almost forgotten to men- 
tion mail-call, which as some of you 
know comes twice a day. This is  
always a very special time; and it  
would be even more special if some  
of you plutocrats (who are rich 
enough, not to have to be "workers" 
here) or you graduates (who no 
longer have to worry about being 
studiers) would write us once in a  
while.  
Nothing else much (or should it  
be: much nothing else, or nothing  
much else—) oh! anyway, nothing
