Student Leaders Look Ahead (Continued from page 5) men who are interested in this phase of activity. Marvel Moe, Shirley Odencrans, and Russell Berg are a committee responsible for recruiting counsellors and for giving them in- structions in this work. They have planned to present their “training course” on April 24th and May lst. After counsellors are elected and in- formed of their responsibilities, they are assigned certain students who plan to enter Augsburg in the fall. This work is under the guidance of the Personnel Department who also sponsors the Student Leadership Re- treat at Camp Tipi-Waukan. On May 8th the Student Council of the past year meets with the newly-elected Stu- dent Council to discuss the experi- ences and problems which will pass from the one group to the other. They also lay plans for Freshman Days and Homecoming. Pro-Military Information Meetings - The young men enrolled at Augs- burg College who expect to enter mili- tary service sometime in the future are being given an opportunity to become oriented through a series of pre-military service information meet- ings sponsored by the Student Coun- cil under the advising of Mr. Marvin Troutwein and Mr. R. J. Hildreth of the Augsburg faculty. James Wal- ler. Chairman of the student commit- tee. reports that the interest is keen and that attendance has been good. The program consists of weekly meetings at which such topics as Wel~ fare Agencies and the problems they can solve, As ts of the Army Ca- reer, First it): Days, Deferment Policy, Veterans Administration, Rec- reational and Educational Opportu- nities, and Adjustment to Military Life are presented by authorities in each field. The discussions have been led by military personnel from the Twin City area. After presentation of the topic, the audience is permit- ted to ask questions thereby giving the boys an opportunity to clarify their thinking on many subjects. This type of orientation program is rather new for college campuses although the need was felt as soon as it became obvious that a large per- centage of college men Would have to report to service. Augsburg is one of the first colleges in this part of the country to make such information available. In addition to baseball. the Aug gies liave full schedules in Tennis. Track. and Golf. The track squad is going to sorely miss the consistent oint-getting of Gene .lesperson who lias been called up with the National Guard. Bill Kuross, defending state singles champ, will lead the netmen. while the golfers will be paced by Don Fladland and Leon Radde. A new twist to Augsburg baseball rivalry developed recently when Kelly “Smiley” Roth accepted the baseball coaching job at Macalester College. The inimitable Roth, who starred in baseball and football at Augsburg under Edor Nelson, will find himself facing his former coach on May 4 at Macalester. The “"0 teams meet only once. this season.

Show moreBASEBALL PROSPECTS FOR 1951 Finding ways to stretch the base- ball season has been an ever-present problem for as long as the sport has been play ed on a college level in the frozen inidwest. Coach Edor Nelson has not been able to squeeze more than sixty minutes out of an hour drill and his efiorts to alter the calen- dar have all failed. Lately. however. we have noticed changes of a quali- tative nature in his approach to the problem. Nelson, who is working his boys out in the gymnasium. begins each practice session by singing “it Might as Well Be Spring". This lends a psychological advantage to the drills which is certain to pay dividends on the diamond. Reluctant to divulge the source of his new musical ap- proach. Nelson's only comment is that he "picked the idea up while working on a progressive dairy farm." Working with a core of ten letter- men. mostly sophomores and juniors. Nelson is non-committal about pros- pects for his squad. “They have lots of hustle.” he said. “and are the kind of team you like to watch. They are kids who like to play ball and will make up in hustle what they lack in experience." The word has been get- ting around. however. that the like- able and jovial mentor has a better squad than last year’s and may even be secretly plotting an upper bracket finish. The returning lettermen include two seniors, Jerry Davis. who will be seeing a lot of action as a pitcher. and Skippy Hanson, who will also perform on the mound. Other letter- men include: Bill Onischuk. pitcher; Robert Hage. catcher: Elwood Lar- son, catcher; Harvey Peterson, third base: Mark Raabe, second base; Arlo Dahlager. first base: Jack Schwartz. center field, and Don Eckhoft, first base. Some of the outstanding new pros- pects include: Don Reimer, catcher; lirling Huglen. pitcher, and Henry Sechler. outfielder. So far this sea- son about forty men have reported for drills. The Auggies will go out of the conference for only two games this season—a home-and~home series with the University of Minnesota. One of the encounters is the season’s opener and will be played April 17 under the lights at Delta Field. The other game will be played at 8 p.m. May 14-. in Nicollet Park. Most of the other home games will be played at Nokomis Field. 50th and Cedar. No admission will be charged for the games at Nokomis. What will be the won-lost record of the squad this season is. of neces-' sity. still in the realm of the un- known. In a recent interview, how- ever. Coach Nelson said, “You must take into consideration the fact that the art of striking a three-inch spher- oid and sending it over lengthy tra- jectories is fraught with a good many uncertainties which make it difficult, if not impossible, to forecast the out- ' come of any season. I wish to deny in advance any statement you may quote me as having made." Spring Sports Schedule BASEBALL April l7—Minnesota, there. April 21—Gustavus, here. April 24—St. Thomas, here.
