Helland, and Mr. Bert Balerud took part in the festivities. These four alumni grad- uated from Augsburg College twen- ty-five years ago. Rev. J. Mortensen. of Minneapolis, Rev. H. Yderstad of Mason. Wis, and Rev. Elias Aas, 4728 Pleasant Ave. S., Minneapolis, were present at the celebration. Mr. Theodore Hanson, principal of I junior high school at Grand Forks. N. D., was an alumnus present as was Rev. E. M. Hanson, author. The social service profession was represented by Miss Helen Wallin, a social service worker for the city of Minneapolis. and Miss Arvida No- rem, matron at the children's receiv- ing home of the Lutheran Welfare Society. Dr. C. M. Roan of Minneapolis and Mr. Oscar Thorvig of the American nook Co. of Moorhead. Minn., were on the campus during homecoming week-end. Rev. Arthur Olson. missionary from China, and Rev. M.

Old Main Lounge Newly Furnished Plans for a social mm in Old Main materialized quickly when Room A on the first floor of Old Main was cleaned, papered, and fur- nished in less than two days. The loom which was formerly the Men's Lounge has been used this year as a class room. Classes are now held in a part of the old dining room on the third floor. Additions to the room will be made in the near future. The girls plan a book shower in order to fill the book shelves and a cofi'ee is planned to raise money for drapes, etc. The girls also hope to be able to change the kitchen of the old infirmary into a kitchenette. Incidentally. the room now used by the girls in Old Main for a recep- tion room is to be the new Echo of‘ fice. The committee that has been planning and supervising the work, along with Miss Mortensen and their adviser, Mrs. Nash, consists of: Inez Hinl'ichs, Doris Hanson. Ruth Kveen, Ruth Kolset, and Margaret Emerson. Frosh-Sophs Tussle (Continued from page 1) in a row. Their first victory came in the girl's volleyball game. The score of this tussle was 15—11, with Harriet Helleckson as the sparkplug of the Sophomore attack. The Soph boys won the volleyball tilt. 18-16, after an exciting game in which they had to come from behind to win. There was no particular star in this game as they all played top notch ball. The Freshman girls were sad- ly outclassed by the Sophomores in the beat ball game. They were given a sound heating to the tune of 11—6. The Fresh boys put the “Greens” into the win column once again by winning the dummy race very deci- sively. The Sophomore girls proved to the crowd that they were the windier by winning the bag blowing contest. It was impossible to pick the best blow— :r in the class. In the Dizzy Izzy Relay the Fresh :ame out on top only to have the lace nullified. Three members of each team ran again to determine the winner and this time the Sophomores won. The Sophomores copped their sixth win in the pass relay. This was a nip and tuck battle for quite a while, but the Sophs gradually pulled away and held their lead throughout the game.

Then were ten events and the Sophomores captured six of them for a total of 320 points, while the Fresh- men gathered 240 points from their four victories. The Fresh “Dan Cupids" were just too good for the Sophomore conten- ders and won the archery contest. 12.! to 106, with “Frankie” Westby and Norman Anderson leading the attack. In the touchball game the Fresh again showed their superiority when they defeated the “Upper Classmen" 7-0. with Bob Olson catching the winning pass.

John Milton, pastor of the First Lutheran church in St. Paul. and instructor in Old Testament and Hebrew here at Augsburg, and at Luther Seminary, has written the book “Holy Garments" which is a collection of his sermons on the old series of the Epistle Texts. Rev. Milton had a two-fold pur- pose in writing this book: first, there had been repeated requests for him to write a book on his sermons in the Epistle texts; secondly, beginning six years ago in his own church, he had started to alternate between the three gospel series and the three epixtlc cries each year. During the six years it has taken to complete both series, he has been enriched very greatly spiritually, and has wished to share with others the wonderful exr periences he has had. The purpose of “Holy Garmcnls’ is to emphasize the Chr'ial-Ii/e,‘ an» other name Rev. Milton has given his book is “The Life That Pleases God." In the many places where the \Nnrd of God is not heard regularly and pastoral contacts are few and far la» tween, this book will serve as a devo- tional and spiritual guide to many, it was learned.

The Old Main lounge was merely a drab, sec- ond-rate Classroom last year. Now it has under- gone a complete metamorphosis. The room serves the social needs of a girl's dormitory far better thaii did the former Reception room. The Echo is thankful that it now has a place that it can call home. A paper being an institu- tion needs some central spot to attach itself to and to work from. Echo headquarters are lo- cated ill what was formerly Mr. Batalden’s of- fice iii Old Main. Another innovation, although not so new, de- serves more publicity than it has received—we refer to fitting out of the Old Main basement as a locker room for the athletes. The space re- served for this purpose in the Main was entire- ly inadequate for both gym classes and orga- nized athletics. A fourth notable step taken this year has been the clever and ingenious decorating of the dor» lnitories for homecoming. The grads we believe appreciate the efforts shown by students in dressing up the campus. The festive bunting showed that imagination. originality, and the capacity for hard work are not dead on the Augsburgr block. Common characteristics of all these advances are the comparatively small outlay of money, and the display of genuine thought and honest investment of work, proving again that not wishing for more but using whatever we may have to the fullest advantage will result in pro. gr s5 What’s Your Opinion?

She is the woman of the hour on the hour who has stir. red up so much sentiment around the Southtuwn campus and perhaps will in the time to come. Basis of Lutheranism The month of October always calls to mind that mo- mentous October day in the year 1517, when the burn» mer blows were struck that soon resounded all over Europe. It was Martin Luther who struck those his- toric blows when he nailed his Ninetysfive Theses to the door of the castle church in Wittenbel‘g. In grateful memory to the intrepid Reformer, October 31 has been set aside as Reformation Day to commemorate an event that has had the most far-reaching consequences in the annals of the Christian Church. For that day saw the birth of what later was to develop into our most price- less possession, our spiritual and cultural heritage. Unfortunately, however, we who profess to be Lu- therans are in grave danger of forgetting the spiritual and cultural significance that Reformation Day has for us. Our homes, our schools, and our churches, although reaping the blessings of our heritage, have all but for- gotten the intimate relationship that exists between October 31, 1517, and our cumulative spiritual and cul~ tural inheritance. The result of our indifference, if per- mitted to continue, will certainly lead to an irretriev~ able loss. We college students may in a vague way know of the existence of such a day, but do we have a profound realization of its spiritual and cultural signi- ficance? Are we as college students aware of the fact that our Lutheran institutions are a direct result of what took place on October 31, 1517. The first of these basic truths was the declaration by Martin Luther that the Word of God alone is infallible. That is, that only the Scriptures can give assurance and certainty in the solution of life‘s greatest. problems, Not the conscience of the individual, nor the decision of the majority: not the authority of reason, nor the infal- libility of tradition; not a rugged, self-centered indi- vidualism, nor a rigid, spirit-killing collectivism. God‘s Word and that alone is the one and only solution for the ills of mankind. Man‘s Search for the ultimate truths of life divorced from the Scriptures is a futile effort which in the end can only lead to disillusionment. The second great fundamental truth proclaimed by Luther was that God alone can save. Luther came to a glorious realization of this divine truth after a long and desperate attempt to justify himself before God. The God of Law whom Luther had sought to placate, now became the God of Love. This rediscovery revived the Scriptural truth that man is justified by faith in the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ alone. These, then, are the two momentous and dynamic truths, the foundation stones upon which our spiritual and cultural heritage restl Without a clear recogni- tion and a whole~hearted acceptance of these eternal verities the existence and preservation of our Lutheran heritage cannot be justified. To cull ourselves Lutherans without knowing and accepting what Luther stood for is to assume a privilege to which we have no right. L E. H.

WSGA Adopts Plan The W. S. G. A. is inaugurating a new plan in its society. Each girl at Augsburg is to have a secret friend. A friend who from time to time surprises her with little unex— pected attentions. such as a rose from the florist or a helpful tract. No- one knows the name of any secret friend. except her own. At the close of the semester a party will be given at which everybody will find out who their secret friend is. Plans are also under way for the furnishing of a social room in Old Main under the direction of Inez Hinrichs and Doris Hanson with Mrs. Nash as adviser. The rummage sale which was conducted to raise money for this cause netted thirty- nine dollars.

He has been for many years the director of the Norwegian male chorus of this city. Mr. Hansen was the editor of the “Tidende” for many years. Mr. Hansen spoke on democracy. and used as example the Scandi— navian countxiu. The second speaker was Dr. Karl Ermiach. who recently returned from a Visit in Germany. His subject was “Hitler in Germany". While visiting in Germany last summer. Dr. Ermiach looked for two things: that Hitler is giving to Ger- many and what Hitler-ism has to give to the world. In speaking of the attitude of the German people toward Hitler. Dr. Ermisch said. "I have not found a single man in Germany who objectedl to Hitler's dictatorial power. Theyl all trust him and cannot forget that they owe their political existence to him. Before he came into power there was no safety in Germany."

Augsburg’s outward growth in the last five years has been phenomenal. She has seen her student body increased by a third. The curri— culum has been extended, and new professors have been secured to teach the classes. She has built a new thoroughly modern men’s dormitory. She contemplates further expansion when her finances will allow. With all this external progress one naturally wonders—will the returning graduates see a corresponding inner advance, or have the years brought no improvement—is Augsburg be- calmed on the sea of its own indifference? Has the intellectual life of the school deepen- ed, broadened, and matured? We have a foot— ball team again, but is the school spirit at a higher pitch than in the past? The library has continually been adding books to its collection— do we read more widely and are we better in- formed than our predecessors? Our laboratories are better equipped—has this fact been an in- centive for us to probe deeper the mysteries of science? The campus is far more beautiful than it was in dad's time, but are we taking more pride in keeping it ship shape? Is our spiritual life on a higher plane of fervency and intensity than the “faith of our fathers?" By frankly facing these quires, one comes to the inevitable conclusion: Our advantages sur- pass those of our forefathers—how have we used them? Remember the warning— “to whomsoever much is given. of him much shall be required." Stem Narrowness! Collegi- life is supposed to broaden the indi< \‘illuols outlook and point of view, to free one from the fetters of prejudice, and substitute a tolerant. scientific attitude. Many of Aungurg's students come from small towns and we have noticed a deplorable tendency toward forming tightly—bound cliques. The home town folks may be splendid, but they can scarcely be representative. The conversa- tion of these groups tends to rotate around last year's high school basketball team and this year's pie eating contest. These narrow provin- cinlisms are detrimental to school spirit. It is also very possible that others are seeking your acquaintance and maybe your fellowship, but they simply can't break that barrier of home town cronies. Another trend in collegiate life which is un- fortnnutv is tendency to form interest-cliques. This condition may be greatly improved by tak— ing on new and varied interests which will force one to keep company with similarly in— terested people. We think that each student has something to contribute to the whole of student life. So don‘t put your light under a buShel. but let it shine. And you will find your own life immeasurably enriched. The Echo stall wishes to join the student body in extending its sincerest sympathy to Ruth Hompland. Ruth Kolset. and Gordon Hokanson in their bereavement. Augsburg has sustained a great loss in the death of Mrs. M. A. Pederson. She was a faith- ful friend of our institution. 61hr Augsburg Erin: EDITORIAL STAFF autumn-ch mes-w lam: ran-a PM. rhino: winner Wuhan-m columnists Sun-now snow-thins noel.

Haticstad. one (if those vitally intersted in the project, named the new infant in stitution "Augsburg." Prof. Weenans was called to be the in- structor for the first student body numbering nineteen. In 1872Augsburghadtohemovcd. Thelendersf'eltthattheir school must be located elsewhere in order to do the most good. A committee of three was elected to investigate the pomibilitiee. Pastor Ole Paulson from Minneapolis was on that committee. In his book "Erindringer" he tells of how he sought out his friend. Judge Vanderburgh, and laid his ideas before him. Previous to this the Judge had expressed the duire to have a Norwegian church school in Minneapolis. Immediately, a council was called of the leaders of the city. They, too, agreed to invite the Semi- nary to move to Minneapolis. Prof. Weenaas, when he came, received a few lots in the south part of Minneapolis. With this as a beginning, he received a few subscriptions in lumber and money. Finally after engaging two carpenters and receiving a gift of fifty dollars from a servant girl, the leaders began erecting a 40x50 two-story veneer frame building. In the fall of 1872 the building was ‘ ' ‘ " r ' a $5,000 debt. The new institution cost $9,000, of which the citi- lens of Minneapolis supplied $4,000. Little encouragement was received outside the city, as less than $500 was given toward the building. 1874 brought another building for the Seminary. A “tenement house" for three professors was also built. The growth of the school necessitated more instructors; so after careful considera- tion Georg Sverdrup and S. R. Gunnerson were called from Nor- way. The school debt was mounting steadily after Weenaas’ resigna- tion in 1876. This threatened to divide the whole church into three divisions. Many of the pastors lost interest in the school. but supporters met at Willmar and appointed Sven Oftedal as a chairman to gather money. The agreement was that if $16,000 couldn‘t be subscribed by January 1, 1878, the money would be refunded. When the time came for collection, almost $18,000 came in, so Augsburg was saved. As a result laymen supported the school more intensely and the farmers throughout the Northwest learned to call it “our school." A few years later more lots were purchased with the assistance of able Minneapolis citizens, until Augsburg owned the entire block. A democratic boarding school was set up where the stu- dents elected the managers and treasurers. Dues were paid four times a year. Well balanced meals could be obtained for $1.50 per week. In 1921 a momentous step was taken when five women were admitted to the institution. Since then, their numbers have grown until almost one third of the present enrollment consists of women. The greatest project of latter years, the erection of the Sver- drup-Oftedal Memorial Hall, was completed in 1938. Once again a drive was made in Minneapolis under the leadership of local men, and once again the citizens of the city responded to help in this magnificant undertaking. EVERALD Smoai.

Christianity in Crisis In one of the rucent issues at the Sltnvdn' Evening Post an article appeared entitled “The Crisis in Chrb- unity.“ Its author, Will Durant, such to pvint out the glaring fallacies of what he defines as Christilnlw. 0n the basis of his own definition. which is certainly nu in mrd with the Scriptural manning. he formulates a solution for the salvation of Christianity. Superficial): and ‘ the author ’ to state whcnin Christianity has failed, and in doing so he makes some far-fetched generalizations His startling revelation that half of Europe has Injected the faith. Rania im- plicitly and Germany explicitly. seems to indicate some hastily drawn conclusions on the part of Mr. Durant. We might question the writer as to whether Russia as a nation has ever had the opportunity to accept or re- ject true Christianity. In another some has the Chris- tianity of the New Testament ever been tried In Russia? Furthermore, Mr. Durant must have overlooked the fact that six thousand pastors of the evangelical faith in Germany huvs refused to how the knee to Baal. Men are so prone to think that the measure of success or crisis in Christianity is determined in terms of union and magnitude. What Mr. Durant may choose to call a crisis in Christianity. God may choose to call a salu- tary influence. It is obvious that the writer of the above article is a stranger to the spirit of New Testamnnt Christianity. We like the liberty to quote a few ex- tracts to reveal Mr. Durnnt’s trend of thought: "Since we cannot expect human beings, in any large number or near future, to make the New Testament the actual rule of their lives, shall we not "put the urrnr of the Utopians, and invite a gigantic lie, if we define Christianity us the practice of the principles of Christ? 01 course, we define it rather as the sincere accep« tnnce of those principles. Probably Christ offered the full and perfect code only for the preachers of the Ger pel. not for the laity. . . . For the rest of us, we can only promise to do our best, obstinstely to try to treat all men ls brothers; this effort is all that Christianity demands. . . . And we hope that it (the Church) will continue to add to the glories of the Bible I second Bible, [evidently Mr. Durant is not satisfied with the first one] recording the finest thoughts and sctlonl of every race of men, so that every race may be able to find in this new old faith its heroes Ind ideals." Without quoting any further, it is self—evident that Mr. Durant's definition of Christianity is not that of the Scriptures. In all fairness he should devise I new terminology to clothe his beliefs instead of using the traditional Christi-n terminology. Christianity in s way of life, founded upon I message, not a code, a rule. or an ethics dependent upon man's efforts as Mr. Dn- r-nt suggests.

It was Dan Elmer's debut in the college ranks in which he definitely showed the con- ference that his team will be a fac- tor to be seriously considered for the Ill-10 season. The St. Paul school started their sole march for a tally late in the first quarter and poked the ball over just after the start of the second period. The “Auggies” over determination and lack of experience caused a Pi- per score at this point. It was three consecutive off-sides and three short gains, one by Hamline's Bill Spence and Jack Campbell, that crushed Augsburg‘s hopes of a clean slate. Augsburg only threat came in the re quarter when “the fighting crew" were stopped on the N yard line where they lost the ball on downs. From the ~15. Mart carried the bull to Hanlline’s 28, where Thompson made it a first down. Jim Gibbons went to the :20 yard marker on a buck and then a pass, Mart to Gibbons. carried the ball to the H where the Hamline defense stopped Augsburg's offense cold.

Should the mate- rial be indigestiblc. just pass it off, with all due respects and considera- tions for the source of information. It has been reported. however, that because of increased advertising this column cannot be printed. Close adv mirers of this column could be a great help by donating to the Augsburg Echo the sum equivalent to the ad- vertisement. In this way the column will continue, and again you can reap the benefits for another year. To write on the Echo stafi this year is none other than Vernon Blik- stad the News Hawk who blew into town the other day after spending a busy summer in Fergus Falls. He is not only a member of the sports stafi', Golden Gopher New Auggie Coach None would think of calling him anything but “Dan”. On first meeting and talking to him one senses im- meditately that addressing him as Mr. Elmer or as Mr. Dan Elmer would be too formal and out of place. After speaking to him for a while one realizes that he is not as soft4 spoken as he first appeared. probably becau he has warmed up to one of hi. fa orite subjects and is telling you the good tasting qualities of some new dish of food, or the merits of some insurance policy, or the ad- vantages of 6-2-24 football defense. Dan graduated from North High in June 1934 and decided to continue his work at the University of Minner sota. Herc he continued to be promiv nent in Y. M. C. A. circles as he had been in high school. Here he became a member of the Phi Delta Theta fra~ ternity in which he still takes an active part. He played center on Gopher football teams and earned three letters. Dan still attends tht University. taking courses in phy— but will serve as publicity director of the school. “Blik” is to write for the Star-Journal and Tribune this school year, which should give Aug - burg plenty of publicity in all ac‘iri» ties. This fall a concentrated cani- paign is being formed to give publi- city to the newly formed football team. Last year Augsburg became known far and wide because of concerted drives by “Blik”. If Augsburg is to grow and expand, an adequate publi- city campaign must be conducted, not only in the athletic department. but in forensics, and music. and the dlfierent minor ones. So "My Friends”, let’s back “Blik’s” newly formed publicity campaign. for it might moan publicity for you, and just think what the home town folks would say My what a popular fel- low he is. JGob".

This fact makes it necessary for him to get to difl‘erent places very quickly, which he does by driving rather fast in his Vv8 Ford coupe. Just lately Dan received a “yes” from Miss Helen Hortel of Minne- apolis. and for a wedding present the Auggie football men sent him a pair of baby overalls. In the pockets were stuffed one dollar bills, half dollars. quarters, dimes and nickels totalling ten dollars This is just one of the many indications Dan has received from his football men showing they think he is tops as a coach Roast beef, mashed potatoes, and gravy is Dan's favorite dish. Already Mrs. Elmer is urging Dan to buy a whole side of beef She figures by buying in larger quantities they will save enough for her husband to buy her a new hat, The football men like Dan very much and will be trying their hard- est to give their new coach a success- ful season. “A” Club to Present “Dramatic Farce” The "A" Club, a comparatively new organization at Augsburg, cele- brates its third birthday this year. This organization is Composed of former and recent letter winners. and has as its main purpose “to keep the athleti of Augsburg on the highest po..ible plane, and to further promote the truths and undying spirit for which Augsburg stands." Projects for the year may include another “Dramatic Force" for which the “A” club has already established fame. The annual steak supper a' Homecoming and a big feed at its annual spring meeting are highlight- on its calendar. The Club has been active in the past and will undoubtedly be more active in the future with Augsburg’s lesumption of intercollegiate foot- ball competition.

AUGSBURG ECHO Quartet Has Successqu Tour The Trio. comprised of Harry So- renson, Conrad Jei'genson, and Paul Sonnack, have returned from a tour of six of the north west states. They report good meetings and a profita- ble as well as enlightening trip. Waldemar Anderson and Harold Grindal traveled through the north central states doing evangelistic work, singing, and selling religious literature. Alfred Sevig, who this fall en- tered the seminary, spent the sum- mer as a representative of the Lu~ theran Free Church Publishing Com- pany, selling books and showing movies of school life and also of the various Bible Camps. Vernon and Joseph Erickson and Clement Gisselquist of Augsburg were also on tour this summer doing evangelistic Work by singing and bringing personal testimonies. Aristotelians View Yellowstone Films Educational trips to points of in- terest, such as the laboratories, as- tronomy observatories, human ana- tomy building, etc., at the University are included in the plans of the Aris- totelian Society for this year. “We also plan to have lectures by men in the field of science," says Kennneth Carlson, president of the society. At the first meeting for old mem- bers only, Dr. Nash showed the slides he took at Yellowstone this summer. This organization is primarily for students interested in science of some sort and who have B averages schol- astically. Dr. Nash, head of the Biology de- partment, spends his summers in Yellowstone National Park as nat- uralist and guide. His position en» ables him to make extensive collec- tions of flowers and films which are of great value to Botany and Biology students at Augsburg.

Dr. Karl Ermiach, head of the Ger- man department, returned on Sep- tember 19, after a harrowing cross in; from Europe. Dr. Ermiach left Hamburg August 24 on the German ship Hausa, which was called back to Germany when only one day out. He returned to Hamburg, but on advice of the American consul went to Denmark. A German pilot was required to guide the SCANYORK through the mines at the entrance of the Baltic sea. During the crossing 75 German warships were sighted laying mines. And the ship crossed on a northern route to avoid submarines. “All of which made us rather nervous, as you can well imagine," Dr. Ermisch said. “I found a Germany entirely dif- ferent from what I had seen 29 years ago—not only that the country had turned from imperialism to so- cialism, but the people had changed, too. It was indeed a revolution, a national rebirth when national so- cialism was inaugurated." “We here in America will naturally object to the empha- sis on ‘national’, but socialism, defined by the Nazis as unre- served service to society, does not seem too objectionable to me... “The vast majority of Germans who know Hitler, almost idoline him, other: regard him as coming from and belonging to the abyss. “The soalled democracies may will have a chance to crush Hitler. In 10 years Germany would have been too strong for any combination of powers to subdue," he said. LSA Features Ashraam Quartet The first meeting of the Lutheran Student’s Ass ation was held in Chapel lust Fri ay evening, Sept. 22, at 8: 0. Several songs were sung by the audience after which Conrad Jergenson gave the invocation. Dr. B. M. Christensen, president of Augsburg College, in his address related the history and purpose of the Lutheran Association acquaint— ing the new students more fully with the activities of the organiza- tion. Other special features of the pro- gram consisted of selections by a quartet that participated at the Lu- theran Student's Ashram at Hickory, North Carolina last August. The quartet is composed of Myrus Knutson, lat tenor, Iowa State Uni- versity; Gordon Egertson, second tenor, and Erling Thompson, second bass. St. Olaf College, and Robert Pearson, first has Augsburg Col- lege. All except Robert Pearson, who is now attending the University of Minnesota, are enrolled this year at Luther Theological Seminary in St. Paul. Lester Dahlen was in charge of the services. Juniors Lack Lucrc Kenneth Carlson, president, called a meeting of the Junior class for the purpose of obtaining ideas as m ways and means of raising money. A committee was chosen to investi- gate possibilities for a clas program.

Ar- rangements for other social activi- ties which will occur during the course of the year, are also in the making. Various committees were elect- ed: Pins and rings, Russell Helleck- son, chairman, Venoy Glendenning, Henry Chapman, and Roy Gordon: Sweater, Lucius Heusser, chairman, Agathe Kleven, and Bernell Borstad; Announcements, Roy Maids, chair- man, Clarice Nundahl, and Adelaid Johnson; Pictures, Alice Backstrom, chairman, George Anderson, and Ralph Sletten.

Busse speak for two Chapel periods, to or- range opportunities for personal in- terviews, and to have meetings in the evenings from seven until eight. This week, set aside especially for the emphasis of religion, should MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1939 All Time High Registration Record Promised Everything points to a all-time record in registration at Augsburg. 408 students have been registered in the first two weeks of school. At the corresponding date last year the figure was 363 or 45 less. Prof. Mar- tin Quanbeck, registrar, voiced the opinion that the number of students at Augsburg would pass the 450 mark this year. The Freshman class of 181 is the largest in the 71 years of Augsburg’s existence. Last year's Green num- bered 155. The figures for the other classes are: Sophomore 97 and for '38 87 Juniors, 65 as against 70. Seniors 59 as compared with 48 for 1938. This year there seems to be quite a gap between the sizes of the Sophomore and Junior classes, while the Senior class has held its own. We also have 5 special students at Augsburg this year. The theological seminary has 14 students to date, which is 2 above last year’s 12. This means an in- crease of 16 2/3 ‘7r. Augsburg’s students hail from 14 states and 4 countries. Approx- imately 67 per cent of our students are native Minnesotans. Minneapolis has the largest representation of any city with 109, According to latest available statistics at least 1 % of arouse great interest among the stu- dent body. Starbuck, Minn., is on our campus (9 people). INTRODUCING NEW AUGSBURG PERSONALITIES Now that a new semester is under way and things are almost back to normal, you probably have noticed several unfamiliar faces here and there on the campus. Not only are there many new per- sonalities in the student body, but also several new faculty members and workers. REV ARNOLD HELSETE Nearly all of you have had some contact with our Personal Director, Rev. N. C. Anderson, either through registration, or in the mad search for employment. Rev. Anderson is a graduate of Augsburg. class of ’34. He has spent four years as a pastor in Tacoma, “Wash, since leaving the Seminary, and incidentally, he is glad to be back with us again. Miss Anderson is the lady in the registration oflice. By the way, hasn't she the patience of a saint, to be able to smile after wading through registration blanks for two weeks? She, too. was a student here at Ange burg in 1934, hailing originally from Menominie, Wis. Miss Chilson is assisting Dean Momnsen over in Morton Hall. She formerly taught at Augustana Aca- demy, and at present is attending the L. B. 1. His Wyman, our dietician. is a penseaofflicyear. graduate of the University of Iowa. Before coming to Augsburg, she was employed at the State Hospital in Clarinda, Iowa. Miss Wyrnan was particularly impressed by our grand dining hall and equipment. She com- mented too, on the nice people she has met here at our college. While We're on the subject of food and dining halls, we can‘t forget to mention Mrs. Nelson, formerly of Nellie Steven’s Cafe, here in Minne- apolis. She is the pastry cook, and from several reports, it must be cone cluded that she need not take a back seat for no one when it comes to cooking. Our new gym teacher, Miss Bergo, is a graduate of St. Olaf. “I have been favorably impressed by the fine Christian attitude found here at Augsburg," says Miss Bergo. Luther Strommen and Lawrence Gudmestad are in charge of the Em- ployment Bureau. They have found work for some seventy students, and that is a record that certainly speaks for itself. Rev. Arnold Helseth, formerly a teacher at Oak Grove Seminary (Little sister school of Augsburg) and also an Augsburg graduate, is the instructor in philosophy. He re- places Rev. William Siege], who is furthering his own studies. Promising Outlook For Debate Season “Although the debate teams have not yet been organised, some of the prospective members seem promis- ing," states Everald Strom, a member of last year's debate team. Tentative plans have been made for Augsburg's debate teams. They will participate in tournaments at Winfield, Kansas, Concordia College, and St. Thomas College. Mr. John Acker will be coach again. Mr. Thomas Gibson is assist- ing with a class in argumentation and debate. DR PENG FU Clean Cut Your Closets A call is issued by the women of Augsburg to all the students and members of the faculty for assistance in the furnishing of a social or club room. NUMBER 1 Dr. Pens Fu, Chinese Christian Leader, Speaks Oct. 19, 20 Olson LFC Missionary Will Translate Talks Dr. Peng Fu, president of (he Lu- theran Church of China. will be a guest of Augsburg College on the nineteenth and twentii‘th of Octobur.

The Chinese clergyman received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from St. Olaf College at the com- mcncerncnt exercises last June. Dr. Peng is not certain just when he will return to China. Plans are such that with the co- operation of everyone, a rummage sale can be held down on Cedar. Mildred Ryan, W. S. G. A. presi- dent, says, “There is nothing that will not sell. Anything you don’t want someone else will—so come on fellows." The girls want ties, suits, shirts, books, lamps, hats, and shoes. They want old jewelry (ten cent stufi is 0.K.) hats, dresses, shoes,7just anything goes. 0h, yes—and how about some vol- unteers for helping move that furni- ture from Old Main down to Cedar? All this for a club room. There is no question about the necessity of such a room, so let's all get behind the idea and push.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: $1.00 PER YEAR “Seeing all things through the eyes of Christ.” A Hand Of Welcome We desire to wish a hearty welcome to all new students, Frosh and upper classmen. If the tribulation which you Freshmen are in at pres- ent seems irksome, remember you will soon be admitted as full-fledged Auggies and there‘ll be another set of Plebes next year. Augsburg offers you an opportunity to ex- amine yourself. Take stock of your abilities and handicaps. Check your energy against your aims. What are your ideals? Give yourself di- rection. Augsburg extends a welcome to work. She desires that you achieve something valuable, something permanent and places her faculty, her library, her laboratories, her athletic activities, her extra curricular program, at your service. All this she can do but she cannot make you work-that one essential must come from with» in you. Seize the opportunity to develop into a balanced personality. There is current in the world today—the dan- gerous idea that one can get something for nothing. Scholastically, what one gets for nothing is not retained,—it is a loss, Ancients as well as moderns have believed in a philosophy of destiny. This philosophy says that I am destined to become such-and-such and therefore it will be futile for me to work for or against fate. Fortunately this attitude has given way to the healthier one of a philosophy of work. “Man is largely what he wants to be." Information, Please ! One of the aims of the editorial page of the Augsburg Echo is to inform. With this objec- tive in mind the paper has accepted member- ship in the Student Opinion Surveys of Amer- ica. These Surveys attempt to measure the pub- lic opinion of students throughout America. They deal with a wide range of topics: morals, politics, war, crime and a great number of ques- tions of present day interest. We will receive 25 ballots each month to be filled out by Augs- burg students. A staff member will interview the students and tabulate the results. The find- ings will be forwarded to the headquarters of the Student Opinion Surveys of America for national tabulation. In each Echo a table of questions comparing Augsburg opinion with na- tional opinion will be published. By means of these polls the Echo hopes to bring its readers an interesting, accurate digest of what the people on our campus and other American campuses think about vital problems. We would enlist your wholehearted cooperation and support in “putting this thing over." Another feature of the editorial page is the “Special Events” feature which will inform you of lectures, athletic and cultural activities, which are worth attending. Frequently students are so busy on the campus that they overlook hap- penings at which they would very much like to be present. This feature is intended to fill just such a need. AUGSBURG ECHO Augburg’s SEVENTY-FIRST Year The school year which opened on September 18 is Augsburg's seventy-first. At Homecoming this fall, to be held the first week- end in November, we are to celebrate our seventieth anniversary. Seventy years of Christian educational activity, many-branched! Seventy years of teaching service by a large group of devoted Christian teachers! Seventy years of questing for Truth by class after class of eager, life-hungry students. Seventy years of sac- rifice on the part of thousands who have loved Augsburg and sup- ported her work. Seventy years of prayer and soul-work by those who sought also through Augsburg to advance the Kingdom of Christ. . . . We who are privileged to begin this year at our school are recipients anew of a great heritage, far greater than we our- selves at present appreciate or understand. Others have labored; we are entered into their labors. This anniversary year is a year of difficulty and of travail in the life of the world. As we resume our studies in comparative peace and plenty, millions of our fellowmen are suffering and dying. Uncertainty and anxiety stalk in countless places, and freedom is a thing unknown. The deprivations and trials of others should make our privileges loom the larger to us this year. Of him to whom much has been given shall also much be required. Conscious of being heirs of a rich Christian treasure, conscious of being men and women of high privilege in a world of bitterest need, may we all, students and teachers, be found faithful in our places of trust during this school year!

We, the stu- dents. must remember that the team must have support and cooperation from us as well as from themselves. So, let's back them up 100% and go into every game with them with a determination to win. Han-let Hellcckszm. Dear Editor: My personal opinion is that inter— collegiate football is a great thing for Augsburg for three reasons. Firstly, it removes the idea of “a house divided against itself," as in intra-mural football, and makes for a spirit of unity. Cynic on Football Secondly, it will provide an evenly- balanced inter-collegiate schedule throughout our school year, which will undoubtedly attract more men to our student body. And thirdly, it will give Augsburg added publicity—a thing important to the success of any growing school. Wesley Gullickaon Dear Editor: That “great American outdoor sport" has once again taken its place in the intercollegiate program at our school. It is one which we as stu- dents have greatly missed in the past five years. With the spark and spirit which Augsburg displays we should be able to once again build up a fight- ing team, peppy-loyal student sup- port, and a good following among the alumni and friends. I hope that it will encourage the enrollment of true»hearted athletes and scholars at Augsburg in future Aside from the obvious advantages of sitting outside in a two hour goose-flesh drizzle and “putting away" enough peanuts to give one permanent acute indigestion, there are many subtle pleasures like watch- ing that 200 pound Gustie tackle “take down" our medium weight line men. The vague thrill (chill) which one feels as numbness creeps slowly from toes through arches, ankles and up to the knees until when you stretch at the half you think your legs are wood. Then there’s the ex- hilerating feeling of being hunched up on the bleachers With an assort- ment of coats on your back and try- ing to peer through the opening in the collars. While one is enjoying the game from 697 Row Z this clas- sic comes to mind. Lives of football men remind us, We like them can push and tug, And departing leave behind us years. Alice Buckatmm.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER It, 1939 Chapel Challenges They that are with us are more than they that are with the enemy. 0 We must learn to see with the eyes of the soul so that we may be aware of the great possibilities that there are. If we go to Jesus with our questions, we can be sure to receive that helpful, encouraging answer. “Except one be born anew, he cannot see the king- dom of God." a “God so loved the world, that He gave His only be. gotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have eternal life." Kostic Komments One of the most stirring challenges confronting our generation is the call to enroll as intelligent partici- pants in the life-and-death struggle against war. The task is a tremendous one and it demands the clearest thinking. the rarest kind of courage, and the most sus- tained loyalty of which we are capable. No half-heart- ed or passive measures will do in a struggle whose final outcome may determine the very fate of civilization it— self. Nor can we postpone action in this vital issue since the forces of propaganda are already at work seeking to create a state of mind conducive to partici- pation in war. Future generations will help sling-ing reproach upon our generation if we fail them on the issue of war. War is crime, mass suicide if you will, and we cannot sidestep an issue that will mean the de- nial of all that is worthwhile to posterity. In its final analysis war is a state of mind and the most powerful factor giving rise to such a mentality is propaganda. “Give me two weeks and the proper machinery and I'll change the so-called mind of the American public on any given subject." This statement came from George Creel, head of the United States proe paganda department during the World War. His com- mittee sold America on the slogan of making the world safe for democracy and the same techniques and methods may serve as precedents to sell America the idea of sav- ing the World from totalitarianism. Besides the press and the movie very efiective weapons in the last war, .I still deadlier weapon has been added to the reportoire of the propagandists, the radio. Nearly all have access to a radio, and it is quite generally agreed that the spoken word has approximately five times the effectiveness of the printed word. The propagandist with such a weapon at his disposal has one of the most efficient single agencies to mould the public mind in the interests of war. With the enemy so Well entrenched we cannot help but wonder if continued peace has any chance of success. Fortunately there are an abundant number of oppor- tunities for each individual to take an effective part in a peace crusade. We can beat the propagandist at his own game. We, too, can use the very same agencies to mould the public mind in the interests of peace that the propagandist uses to create a war mentality. Dis- cussions, lectures, letters to newspapers, congressmen, and friends, the radio, the movie—all these are avail- able as avenues of approach to the public mind. But a further step is required if public opinion is to do« minate government policy and that is appropriate or gsnization. Continuous pressure must be brought to bear upon public oflicials to counteract the propaganda of armed preparedness and chouvinistic nationalism. —1. E. H.

Art Botten. rookie catcher from Seattle. displayed the abilities of a veteran catcher both in his hitting and his work behind the plate. The whole team was hitting slightly better than usual, being led by Hoyt Messerer, who got three hits in four trips to the plate. Augsburg and Hamlinc came out even in two conference baseball games played on May 17 and 18. re- spectively. On Wednesday after noon. May 17, the Augs journeyed to Hanlline and took the Pipers into camp. 10.8, in ten innings. Jim Gron- seth broke it tie in the tenth inning by a home run with a runner ahead, and won his own ball game. Jim ale lowed the Pipers eleven hits, but was kept in the game by good hitting on the palt of his team mates. )Ies» screr. first man up for the Augs, led off with a home run, and his mates pushed three more men across before the inning was over. Messerer hit another homer later in the game, and George Anderson also connected for a round trip. On Thursday afternoon at the Veterans' Field the Auggies helped Ace Hoberg to a 51 lead in the seventh inning, but then the Pipers started to connect and tallied twice in the seventh, once in the eighth, and three times in the ninth. to win 7-5. The Auggies collected twelve hits to Hamline‘s ten, but failed to capitalize on them, having fifteen men left on bases. Hoberg pitched good ball in the first seven innings and was re- lieved by Michelson in the eighth. Augsburg stayed (III a late rally by the St. Mary's baseball team to defeat the rcdmcn 8-5 on Friday af- ternoon, May 5. The victory was the second for the Augs and gave them a .500 average in conference play. George Anderson pitched good ball in the tight spots and with good sup- port at the plate won the game. in spite of the fact that the visitors got twelve hits to Augsburg's ten. Gordon Captains Basketball Quint The old Messerer to Gordon play clicked again at the all-school honor banquet when Hoyt Mesurer, retir- ing basketball captain, passed the torch. emblematic of the captaincy. to Roy Gordon. captain»elect. With that torch went the confidence and trust of Augsburg’s basketball players. No better place could have been found to lay these responsibilities than in the hands of big, likable Roy Gordon. “Bull” has been active in student activities at Augsburg. In his three years here he has won six athletic lette ‘, has been president of his class, has been financial secretary of the Students' Society, and has maine taincd a good scholastic average throughout. run hm... non Hume. Five outstanding athletes closed their careers at the end of the base- ball season. These players are Hoyt Messerer, captain of the basketball , team; Gerald Per- ;i son, captain of last year's baseball nine; Chester Hoberg, this year’s baseball cap- ltain; Henry Chap~ man, pint-sized bas- ,‘ ketball man, and t L o i~ r i n Dahlager. the lanky Starbuck product. This quin- tet represents one of the greatest ath- letic combinations to graduate in the last decade. They have not limited their achievements to athletics, but stand forth asa group that has excelled in scholar- ship and extra—curricular activities. In athletics these five men have participated in four years of basket- ball and, with the exception of Chap- man, in baseball. Chappie is holder of the coveted honor athletic trophy for this year. Two of the five athletes have se- curcd positions as teachers. Messerer has filled the opening in Kiester, e L Lnl’l‘n Dnhlzzer. Jensen’s Five-Hitter Swamps Pipers, 15-3 The Auggie diamondball squad con- tinued its winning ways at Hamline last Tuesday afternoon as it. trounc- ed the Pipers 15-3. Lloyd Jensen, cheerleading pitcher, was in rare form and struck out fifteen men while giving up only five hits. He was well supported at the plate with Lindahl, Branes, Krohn, and Chap- man lending the Augsburg “More (lrcr‘s Row.” The Augs collected six- teen hits in all, one of them a long home run by Krohn.

Dear Mom, The girls stopped wearing bright colors since Professor Hagen said people wear bright colors in an efl'ort to cover up the defects in their personali- ties. We gave our little playmate, Russell, a bow and arrow for his birthday. Now the only thing he hasn't got is Cupid’s curly hair. The only thing Linda's com- position teacher likes about banquets is the fresh aftcr din- ner mints that are served. Ruthie says it doesn't mat- ter if you don't have much competition if there isn‘t any- thing to compete for. Donald says it‘s surprising how many of the fellows are starting to write to the girls in their home town, now that summer vacation is coming. The difference between Augs~ burg girls and the nurses is that the nurses wear white stockings and have hard hearts. Marion didn’t want to go on the W. S. G. A. outing at Me- dicine Lake because the fellows weren't invited. —Juliannc. Off-Campus Expansion 0n WAA Program Paula Bruss is the newly elected president of the WAA.

In doubles Frykman- Johnson succombed 4-6, 2—6. Carl- son-Kronstad vs. Sharlund-Groebner provided plenty of thrills. Each took a set, 3A6 and 6-2, to tie up the match. The final set was a ding dong battle, till the Auggies leveled the score at 10 all, and went on to win, 1210. Augsburg lost a match to the Tom- mies 6-0 last Tuesday.

Lillehei Secures Luther’s Works Some time ago Professor Lars Lil- lehei, curator of the Archives, se- cured a number of volumes contain- ing all the works of Dr. Martin Lu- ther, including his translation of the Bible. This set of twenty—three vol- umns was published in Germany from 1740 to 1750. They were imported by Dr. Solo~ mon Henkel of New Market, Vir- ginia, and presented to his son. Sa- muel, who died in 1863. Rev. Abel Anderson of Muskegee, Mich, pur- chased them in 1880 from Henkel, and when he retired from the active ministry in 1919, moved to Minne— apolil, Professor Lillehei was able to purchase the books from the daughter. They are well bound, excellently printed and the text is genuine. This set of books should, according to Professor Lillehei, prove a valuable addition to Augsburg's Archives. Ermisch Writes Book Dr. Karl Ermisch. professor in church history and German, has been working for the past months on a commentary on the books of the Bible. The commentary will consist of a series of vest-pocket sized books of the Scripture: in which Dr. Ennisch has added some annotations to bring out more clearly the true meaning of the passages. He is now working on the Epistles and hopes to have them finished dur- ing the coming summer. after which he will start on the Gospels. | CLUBS ..
