Heading the list were three veteran pitchers, Captain "Lute" Mona," “Lef- ty" Amundsen, and "Stub" Rortvedt. The infielders were led by "Gordy" Theis, shortstop, “Larry” Severson, and Jens Midtaune. The outfielders were headed by “Ernie” Madsen, former center fielder, Erling Chris- tiansrln. George Sele, and “Sig” Son- ju. The Veteran Catchers Were “Peg” Emerson and “Si” Daniclson. Juniors Defeat Faculty Members ((‘ontinucd from page 1) call three fouls on him during the first half. \Vllen the ten minute rest period came, the two teams walked off amid the cheers of their respective supporters, the score being dead- locked 14 all, In the second half, Harbo again scored first, giving the pedagogues the lead. The faculty lead was short- lii'vd, however, for the junior ofien- sire begun to function, and Theis and Emerson found their way through the faculty defense to bring their score up to in at the end of the third quarter, while the scorebook read 17 for the teachers. Evidently the spirited yelling of four or five of their co»faculty mem- bers put new life into the instruc- tors, for they came back with a bang and scored four points before the class champs were able to tally. With the faculty on the long end of a 21 to lfl score, the all-class center “Lef- ty" Amundsen made a sensational shot from the foul line to bring the Classic to a deadlock 21 to 21, with only two minutes to go. Then “Gorr die" Theis brought the crowd to its feet hy flipping in a counter from the center of the llnor to put the game on ice for the juniors. The final drive of the faculty fell short of its goal and as the "fog horn" shrilled its final blast. the exultant juniors fin- ished in the lead 23 to 21. “Syd Says” lly the limli .il' tlilng.

Spring is in the air. With all the biy league team in their training Camps in the south, the Auyaio barbell great: an olw getting the kinks out of their arms. Althouyh Auysbury Ml few holdouta, they have had their troubles. After much i . about this, that and the othur thiny, it um: finally decided that Amor- ica’s favorite game was to be played at Auylbury this year. From the looks of the material we've championship ltu] in our midst. There are several veteran-l? among whom are the following: Cup- tal‘n "Lute" Mona, Ernie Modaen, Otto Rmnudt, Jens Midtown, “Lefty” Amundsen, Erliny Christianaon, Gordon The“, “Enter”, and "Sin" Sonja. Then there are some freshmen yroat such as "Bill" Wurfinys, Norman Larsen, Archie and Eugm Kaldor, “Teddy” Midtaune, “Don” Olson, Orr-1's Hanson, Reynold Pedersen, Harold Kobs, and “Kenny” Jacobson. s v u a With men like this and with the support of the student body, we should be able to show Mike Kelley's men their place. v. a x t It was a merry tussle in the class basketball games with the proud juniors winning the honor of having their name inscribed on the silver clip. The runners-up were the not-to-bc-sneercd-nt freshmen. The yearlinys were regarded by many as being qual to the juniors, but old man tough luck was on thcir side much of the time. The noble and awerinspiriny seniors found themselves finishing in third place, and the cocky sophomores in the cellar. o a o a Illony bright stars flashed in the class games. On the all class team as picked by the sports editor in the last issue of the “Echo”, we find: at one forward position, the flashy, hot-eye “Christy”; as the other forward, the clever, catch-iflyou—can Rinde in his painter‘s punts; as center, we find haok»passing “Lefty” Amundsen from Boyd (Minnesota); 415 one guard none other than the clever-passing, speedy Theia,‘ and us the other guard, steady, hard-fighting Orris Hanson. Who knows but what this team might give the varsity o rub? a v s 1 But let’s not forget Blake, Norman Larsen, "Enter", So'nju, Flay- stad, Havey, Stanyhclle, Selz and Olaf Hellund and remember, “They also serve who only stand and wait." a a a a Though a bit rough in spots, the junior-faculty game was it howl- iny success. Howling on the part of enthusiastic supporters and a success financially. : t a “Lute” Mom was a center of attraction l1 few nights ago at the Ascension-Harlem Glabc Trotter game in the Auditorium. Oh’s and ah‘s were heard as "Lute" walked over to his ($1.50) reserved seat and removed his coat to show his beautiful, white Augyic sweater with it‘s “.4”, stripes and star.

It. was found necessary to double the number of pages this year in order to find space for the articles selected by the edi- torial statf.

SKORDALSVOLD, ‘81 Perhaps one of the most well known of the literary men that have graduated from Augsburg College is Johannes J. Skordalsvold. He was born October 29, 1853 at Skordalsvold. Meraker, Norway. He immigrated to America, where he attended Augsr burg College, getting his B. A. de gree in 1881. He continued his Stur dies at the Universin of Minnesota from 1881782, and 1884788, when he received his B. L. degree. Illr. Skordalsvold made a trip abroad and studied at the University of Berlin from 1889790. In lSS-I he taught four languages at Augsburg College, while he was attending the Univer» sity. For twelve years Mr. Skcrdalsvold conducted his own private night school in Minneapolis while operating a small farm near Robbinsdale, Minn. Since 1918 he has been proof reader at the Augsburg Publishing House. His literary works are indeed many. He has published about forty poems in different newspapers and is the author of “Glimt of Bjornsons liv 0g virksomhed", and “King Olav". He has translated some seven hundred hymns in “Hjemlandsklokken”, pub- lished by P. Benson, translated Ros- siter’s “Practical Guide to Health" from English and German into Nor- wegian, and W. Ager's “Naar jeg blir trzet af at loge" into English. Mr. Skordalsvold has been superin- tendent of the Lecture Bureau of “Total Abstinence Congress" since 1898, except for one year. He has been a newspaper correspondent for the Norwegian and English press and a contributor to Sundheim's “Jul i Vesterheimen", and Jacobs and H005Y “Lutheran Encyclopedia." Alexandria, Mimh, March 26: The Glee Club “Ramblers” came to Alex andria Thursday noon, and after din- ner sang at the “Alec” High School. In the evening we had a small but remarkably appreciative audience at the concert. One of the features of the concert, as far as the Glee Club was concerned at least, was the m0- mentary lapse of memory of the pro- fessor, who remained standing at the close of a group of songs until he was reminded that it was time to make an exit.

On the sheets handed out there were fifty: (our questions. Forty-eight of these have lent themselves to statistical methods of tabulation. A few of the results are given here. The age of the girls in the college averages one and three-tenths years less than that of the boys. The ques- tion arises, “Are the girls more in— telligent, or is there a greater stu— dent fatality among them?" Boys average four inches taller and thirty— three pounds heavier than girls. According to the results, five- eighths of the students are from Minnesota and one-eighth from North Dakota. Eighty—three percent of them are Norse, and ninety-three per— cent are Lutherans. One-fifth are blonde and one-sixth brunette. Twen- ty—two percent have curly hair. Thirty-seven percent of the stu- dents live in the country, seventeen percent in small towns, and the re- mninder in cities When asked as to where they would prefer to live, there was a distinct tendency to favor the country.

Coupled with this feeling is that of responsibility to the Augsburg student body for the con- fidence they have shown us in entrusting this task to our care. There is a thrill in the beginning of a new work, in the op- portunity to strive toward a higher ideal. Even though many of the staff members have been working on the Echo for some time, they feel that in their promotions they are entering upon a new work in almost the same sense as when they were first elected to the stafi. It is with new hope and enthusiasm and with a deep desire that we may strive loyally to make the Echo of the coming year true not only to the standards of journalism but also to the ideals of Augsburg that we begin this term of service on the Echo staff. —A. M. F. LITERARY SOCIETIES Yes, we have them at Augsburg, but they have drifted into the background where they are unmolested by the students. Oc- casionally we see a notice on the bulletin board announcing a meeting of one of the societies, but only a few days intervene un- til we see written on this same notice the word "postponed". This is the present status of the literary societies at Augsburg. Postponing a meeting may be all right once in a while, but it is a habit too easily acquired. If you start putting off a meet- ing to accommodate other interests you might as well close your doors. for that will be what will eventually happen. Thursday night has been the regular night for literary societies in the past, and it should be respected by other school functions. If they choose to use that night, let them do so at their own risk, but let us as members be loyal to our society. A society that is worth belonging to should be worthy of our support. If you are not in‘ terested in literary work for the sake of the society, stay out. Too many students join merely for the honor of having a pin or getting their pictures in the “Augsburgian”. There may be other means to get a medal to take home to show your friends without making the literary society your “goat”. 0n the other hand it might be wise to consider the scholarship of a student rather than his popularity or good-looks. If we intend literary societies at Augsburg to continue, let us live up to the ideals and purpose for which they were organized. Other“ 'se we should discontinue them entirely and save ourselves from ridicule. M. N. New Books from old chronicles add greatly to the charm of the book. The Richmond News Leader says of this new edition, “It is a unique and fascinating record of the life and Board. C. A. and Board, \\'., Amer- irm: Imr'iulhuu, Machlillan 00., N.

This volume is intended for stu- dents who have already had a course in general zoology. The book views the vertebrates as s group of ani~ mals belonging to the present; how~ ever, the greatest stress is placed on their interest to us historically. Their development is traced from simple be— ginnings millions of years ago. Sevv era] chapters are devoted to the an- cestral history of the vertebrate classes, thus making this a scientific study of special interest to the stu- dent.

Berthold Busch, the German bari- tone, assisted the orchestra as vocal soloist. : The St. Mark's and Westminster churches of Minneapolis. combined their choirs to produce Bach’s “Pas- sion according to St. Matthew."

Eighty-five percent of the students have fathers living and ninety per- cent have mothers living. of the fathers, sixty-five percent are in the five thousand to twenty-five thousand dollar property class. Fifty-five per- cent of the money spent for school expenses is earned by the students themselves, and thirty-four percent is supplied by the parents. The aver- age total cost per school year was found to be four hundred and seven» ty»seven dollars. There should be many higher de- grees among future alumni, for the average educational aim is five and one-tenth years above high school. Sixty-eight percent of the boys and ninety percent of the girls intend to enter the teaching profession. Fifty- five percent of the students have taken an average of one and four fifths years of music lessons each. Fifty percent of the students claim that education has changed their moral standards. The influences af- fecting their ideals come in the fol- lowing order: mother, father, family Circle, church, Sunday school, com- panions, school teachers. books, maga- zines, and law.

Led by the passing of George Kole- sar and the sensational open field running of Captain Madson the Aug gies were able to come through with a tie game. Fumbles were costly for the Augsburg eleven, resulting in ul~ timate touchdowns for the Lutherites just at periods when the Auggies seemed destined to march to the other end zone. Luther scored early in the first period when a number of line plays were successful for good gains and a line plunge carried the ball over the last two yards. The remainder of the first half was played on quite even terms though the Auggies opened up an aerial attack in final moments which almost tied the score. A long pass Kolesar to Knutsun brought the ball to the 15~yard line, but time pre- vented another attempt to put it over. Early in the third period Madson grabbed a pass from Kolesar and scanlpered the remaining twenty-five yards to tie the score. George's place kick was good to give Augsburg a one point lead. Things seemed to be pret- ty much in favor of the Auggies until late in this same period a fumble deep in Auggie territory put Luther in position to score. Almost the same thing happened in the opening of the T. K. ELLEFSON 2120s2122 RIVERSIDE AVE.

Captain Ernest Madson has been on the Augsburg squad for four years and for the past three seasons has been one of the kading open field threats in the Conference. Jens Midtaune has been a regular for the past two seasons and has proven to be a dynamic figure on the football field. Size has been much of a handicap to him. Harry Bachus played but one year and that was checked almost entirely by injuries. However, his fighting spirit pulled him through to finish the season in great fol-n1.

He carried the ball from the kick-off past mid-field on a sensational sprint to place the Auggies in position to score. A few line plays placed the ball on the two yard line where Olson jumped through a hole in the left side of the line for the second Auggie score. A few moments later Madson took an- other pass from Kolesar and dodged and jumped through 65 yards of broken field to tie the score. The last two attempts for extra points went wide of the bars.

Luther had almost killed himself performing them. Prof. Roth concluded by pointing out that the confession has had a great influence in all Protestant churches. This is because it has em- phasiaed a life in Christ. Justifica- tion is only through faith. Dr. Christensen Speaks At Central Lutheran (Continued from page 1) teaches the inadequacy of human righteousness to contribute anything toward the requirement of divine per» faction.

However, it seems that if the mat» ter is given sufiicient serious con- sideration, a definite solution may be found for this perplexing cir- cumstance. If no one seems to care seriously for any reasonable reform, it must be that everyone, deep down in his heart, is more than satisfied with the boarding club and does not feel the need of any drastic change. The Augsburg Boarding Club is financed by its members, and there is no profit for anyone but them. Mrs. Johnson admits that she would like to prepare a sumptuous banquet to put before the students every day, but it is the will of the students that the price of board he kept where it is, so she cannot. However, if any student is seen straggling about the campus in an undernourished condition, he (or she) should be directed up to the club Where steps will be taken to feed the individual in such a way that the pristine robustness of his physique may be restored.

The Women's Self-Government As- sociation is sponsoring an entertain- ment in the basement of East Hall, Friday, November 21, from three to ten-thirty o'clock. The main feature will be a minia- ture golf course built in the basement out of materials from the attic. If you don’t make a par score, it prob— ably won't be your fault,—blame the links. It isn’t skill that counts, it's luck. Some of the handicaps are rain water pipes and wash boards. Knock» ing a ball over a bridge built of corn flake boxes and evading a history book, will take patience. The W. S. G. A. wants everyone to have a good time at reasonable cost, so they have built cheap golf links for thin purses. Every person who makes a hole-in-one will receive a free ticket to play again. Refreshments will be served up» stairs and there will be other attrac- tions for those who are waiting to play golf. Oletta Wald, president of the W. S. G. A., is general chairman. She is assisted by the executive council which consists of Telma Leeland, Clara Oudal, Fern Federson, Mathil- da Sageng, and Adeline Rasmussen. Refreshments are in charge of He- len Wallin, senior representative. Her committee is composed of Lor- raine Lund, junior; Solveig Bergh, sophomore, and Elsie Tollefson, fresh- man.

Prof. Severson is arranging for a large number of debates for both teams. The question adopted by the state colleges is: "Resolved, that the nations of the world should adopt a policy of free trade." Besides having a central question for debate, a num- ber of colleges are considering other questions to be debated at various conventions and other gatherings. The veterans on the women's team are Ruth Hagen of Pleasant Lake, N. D., and Tilrna Leclnnd, Ortonville. The new candidates are Eveline Gil- seth, Harvey, N. D., and Hazel Hauge, Northfield. Four men, Roy Quam, Roland, 1a., Albert Matsen, Bronson. Edwin Pe- terson, Colgan, N. l1, and Ellard Wold. Walker, are veterans from last year.

Hagen President Of Mission Study Group Russian Situation To Be Studied This Year Holger Hagen was elected presi- dent of the Mission Study Group at its meeting Nov. 5. The other ofiicers are: Lars Goldal, vice president; Ruth Hagen, secretary, and Edwin Peterson, treasurer. The Mission Group has decided to center its study on Russia this year, in an endeavor to get s better under- standing of the Russian situation. The history of Russia will be con- sidered first. Outside speakers will address the group from time to time. Edwin Peterson and Julius Her— munslie were named on the program committee. The next meeting will be held next Wednesday evening, Nov. 26. at 7:00 P. M. Anyone interested in the study of Russia is cordially invited to attend the Mission Group meetings. Old And New Auggies Pose For Mr. Larson Campus And Gridiron Form Scenes Of Moving Pictures Motion pictures of the Augsburg faculty, students and alumni have been taken by Mr. Herman Larson of the Larson studios. These pictures will be shown at Augsburg soon. Members of the faculty and student body were photographed as they left the chapel service. During homecom- ing pictures were taken of the joint chorus, various campus scenes, the oldest alumnus present, Rev. Arntzen, and the president of the Alumni As- sociation, the Alumni Teachers' As- sociation, and the Student Society. Seventy-five feet of film were used during the Augsburg-St. Paul Luther football game. One hundred feet of film have been donated by Mr. Larson, and one hundred feet have been purchased by the Students’ Society. Mr. Larson promises to show these pictures for the students, at the same time show— ing pictures which he took during his visit in Sweden and Denmark last summer. Did You Know That— There are eight Roosevelt High school graduates attending Augs- burg this year? Kenneth Sydness teaches drums at Princeton, Minnesota? A niece of Einar Hoidale is at- tending Augsburg? Ernest Olson has been Swedish navy? A girl born in China of Swedish and Danish ancestry is now studying at Augsburg, a Norwe- gian-American institution? Otto Rortvedt has never had a ride in an Austin? “Si” Mclby still has his famous grey sweater? Prof. Paulson enlisted in the Navy during the late war'! John Kolesar, '30, was ofl'ered the position of basketball coach at Hamline University? Six members of the Augsburg faculty have studied in foreign universities? The Senior quartet sang at the Bloomian (Hiram) high school on Armistice Day? The Gram-nu Eta Pi, Augsburg's most exclusive literary society, has been revived after a lapse of four years? in the Fifth Year As Coach Dr. C. L. Eklund fifth year this fall as football coach at Augsburg. Taking over the reins in 1926, Augsburg's initial year in completed his the State Conference, he has done some remarkable work with a very limited squad each year. With the exception of the season just past his teams have come through above average and often near the top. In 1928 he perhaps turned out his best team, which tied for the championship. In the following year the Auggies came along undefeated until midseason when injuries to his scarce material cost the remaining games. This year he was not only handicapped by a small squad, but also by inexperienced men. Dr. Eklund is without doubt one of the best coaches in the Northwest. He was considered as a candidate for the post Vacated by Dr. C. W. Spears at the University a? Minnesota last spring. Besides being a great. coach he is well thought of throughout the state conference and idolized by his men. Final Tryouts Are Held For Glee Club Eight New Members Chosen To Complete Organization After rehearsing for a period of almost six weeks, final tryouts of the Glee Club were held last week and twenty of Augsburg’s best rnale sing- ers were chosen by the director, Prof. Opseth, to constitute this year’s or- ganization. From the first elimina- tion until the final tryouts over twen- ty-five men had been working for a place in the club. “The outlook for a successful year is very promising," said Prof. Opr seth, “and if the men will work hard there is no reason why the organiza- tion of this year should be inferior to those of the past." There are twelve veterans from last year and eight new members. Olaf Helland has been elected presi- dent of the organization for this year. Julius Hermunslie, treasurer: Clay- ton Morgan, secretnry; Lawrence Bueide, librarian, and Warren Hanr sen, director of marching.

It was decid- ed that the literary societies, who sponsor the Dial, will be held respons- ible for the amount of money which their subscriptions should furnish. Each member of a society is respons- ible for two subscriptions. The December Dial will be the fourth issue to be published, the first one having appeared in the spring of 1929. This literary publication is made up largely of essays, poems, narrar tions, and descriptive sketches con- tributed by college students and a14 umni. Contributions should be turned in to the literary editors, Olctta Wald and Manley Gjerde or to Mathilda Sagcng, editor»in-chief. Prof. Paulson Tells 0f Naval Experiences Speaks In Dining Hall On Armistice Day Armistice Day was observed this year not only by the dismissal of classes, but also by a program given in the' Dining Hall Tuesday noon, November ll. Mr. Paulson, one of the new faculty members, re- lated to the students a few of his in- teresting experiences as a “dry land sailor.” He was stationed at the Great Lakes camp, which was the largest camp of its kind in the world. He claimed that the only battle he ever fought was the bitter battle of the flu. Although there were many inten- sely interesting experiences reviewed, one of the outstanding was Mr. Paulv son's impression of the sailors' band. On review days, as the thousands of men all clad in white gathered on a single field, the effect was such as one receives an a bright wintry (law with its dazzling snow. As the v inus regiments passed in review, their re- (Continued on page 3) Appetite vs. Economy Recently Mrs. Johnson, anxious to please the members of the boarding club. asked the pad ple at each table in the dining hall to submit a menu for a whole day's cvch meals. The results of Mrs. Johnson‘s plea, distressing as they were, showed an amusing inconsistency in the cravings of the gastronomic systems of the club's hundred members. If the menus were fol- lowed, the cost of board would be doubled and all the near-by lunch counters would be serving a bum- per crop of customers between meals. It was a surprise to find a de- mand from a table of football players for fruit cocktail for dinv net; and how a table full of weak- looking math sharks had the auda. city to ask for a dinner that,_ to speak figuratively, would choke an elephant, is beyond human com‘ prehension.

Dr. Roth, in his address, pointed out that even though the Augsburg Confession gave religious and political liberty, it was essentially a confession of faith. The Lutheran Church is just as legal 3 church as the Roman Church. The Augsburg Confession brought nothing new; it restored only the old.

It is uttered with even less feeling than that with which a telephone operator repeats a number. On the other hand, the deepest gratitude often remains unexpressed be- cause words seem to limit that which we wish to convey. Be- tween these two is the gratitude which we voice sincerely. How our standard of gratitude changes as we grow older! As children it did not take much to bring a delighted “Thank you” from our lips. Perhaps we did not say it as often as we do now, but it was certainly sincere. Our joy in the act of receiving probably said more than our words. Now we expect service and complain loudly if it is not promptly given. We notice only the times when the “go” sign says “stop”; when a long freight train detains us at a crossing; when the street car is not waiting for us. We forget that the “stop” sign said “go”; that the crossing was clear; that the street car was waiting, only today. We remember the hottest days and the coldest days, the driest months and the wettest months, and especially the scanty years, blaming Providence for them. On the pleasant days and during the fruitful years, we boast of our self-sufficiency. When we are eating our Thanksgiving dinner, let us recall the following incident from the experiences of a famine relief worker in northern China. It is only one example of conditions that could be duplicated in Russia and in India. A mother and her child, both of them terribly under-nourished, were found tottering along a road, bound for nowhere in par- ticular. The mother accepted a package of crushed beans and barley, but declined money. Later on her body was found in a gulley, her daughter standing wonderingly by her side. The little one had received the food. The mother had died. Luiham (Horde llnllzcl' llnci-n l lnrson iilnilys noun! )1 Hui-m All!!!» F l ‘l‘ilmn Lm-Innd —G. J. J. We noticed while Watching the Armistice day parade that the Salvation Army and the Boys Scouts drew more applause than either the Army veterans or the Marines. THE PRESENCE Some time ago a writer of not so little prestige expounded in the columns of one of our magazines on the “necessity of a new religious force.” He was seeking for a panacea to cure the mani- fold ills of the present day. Social disorder, political upheaval, economic misery—all, he thought, might be assuaged if man could discover some new and powerful force, a power so potent that all nations would acknowledge it, and bowing to its principles, would thereby find peace and prosperity once more. Can it be possible that the Force which has been the guiding light in the lives of so many men for these 1900 years, has be- come so impotent that even learned men are unaware of Its pres ence? Has Jesus Christ been entombed again, to rise no more? Or have we who call ourselves Christians been backward in tell- ing the glad tidings—in witnessing for the living Christ? Shame~ fully we must admit the latter to be the case. His power in the lives of believers is as great today as ever, for He has said, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." But in the business of witnessing for Him.—in that we have fallen short. So it is with sincere pleasure that we commend efforts like those of The Christian Writers’ Club of Brooklyn, N. Y., which, by means of its book, “The Presence”, strives to bring a “little treasure of testimony concerning Christ and what He means to His people in the various walks of life." He who reads this tes- timony cannot but be convinced of the all-pervading power of the Prescnce. Would it not be a blessing—yielding enterprise to undertake a similar work of witnessing for the Master at Augsburg? Surely the Presence has become a living reality in many lives.

Mr. V'erbrugghen presented old familiar Italian favorites and gradu- ally led on to music more novel and strange. The orchestra played Ros- sini’s “William Tell". Jascha Schwarz- mann, the new solo player in the cello section of the orchestra, led his sec- tion in this composition. Ruggiero Ricci rehearsed with Mr. Verbrugghen for three days before the concert. Friday night he seemed as one of the orchestra. He played his Mendelssohn concerto with the greatest ease. Ruggiero was recalled many times, and when presented with a tribute of roses by Mrs. Carlyle Scott, the little Ricci played another number with orchestra ' soc/bill’s Delta Sigma Chi Five new members were initiated into the Delta Sigma Chi on Thurs day evening, November 16, at a meet- ing held in the men’s lounge. They were Viola Blackhurst and Percy Downing, of Gray Eagle, Clifl'ord Johnson of Lonsdale, Malvard John- son of Newman Grove, Nebraska, and Neil Tangen'ot Minneapolis. The society was not perhaps what these had imagined it to be, for every- thing was done backwards. Appear- ing in backward dress, they bade all the members “goodbye.” Just to be different, the new members were served refreshments immediately upon arrival, and they pronounced it a most “different” lunch. Realizing the seriousness of the oc- casion, the newcomers very humbly donned their ’society pins after a great deal of Ceremony. They were then given the opportunity to show just how much they knew about the campus and its properties. After taking their vows, they were accepted as full-fledged members. While lunch was being served, Irving Quanbcck, chairman of the program committee, outlined the plans for the year. The first quarter will be spent in studying Ibsen and some of his plays. Pi Alpha Theta The Pi Alpha Theta Literary So- ciety held a regular meeting on Thursday evening, November 6, in room 27. The new members were told the society’s purpose and its work. After the business meeting, lunch was served at East Hall. Gladys Oudal and Gordon Thies have been accepted as new members. Press Club Adeline Rasmussen was elected president of the Press Club and Dorothy Paulson the secretary and treasurer for the coming year. The purpose of this club is to fur- nish the home town newspapers with information concerning the school activities of various students. Val» uable experience is gained in doing this work. Students who journalism are asked to hand in their are interested in names to Dorothy Paulson. We have discovered certain fresh— men who think they know. We thought so, too. The seniors look wise. “They should correct that error." s We sometimes wonder if the term “Literary Society" at Augsburg isn’t, after all, the right name—Jar the wrong thing. l CHAPEL CHALLENGES I Imagine yourself building an ark as Noah did, for from any body of water! Foolish indeed, it seems. Nevertheless, Noah obeyed God, tak- ing up his "cross" of ridicule, and was justified through faith. In like manner God’s plan of salvation has always seemed foolish to human rel- soning. The blessed fact remains: Christ, the crucified Redeemer, is the ark of our salvation. (Genesis 6: 11-22). a Are you willing to “for rs-.__. preach [or the lake a] your faith in and obedience to God! I o s The life of an individual might be well-nigh perfect, outwardly, and prompted by noble attitudes, yet if it lacks that vital contact with Christ, born out of a personal experience and knowledge of His grace, it is a failure. (Mark 10:17»22). a Can you «1170111 to turn away from Christ because of the erecting conditions a] eter- nal life? s n a Love begets love, according to the old proverb. Hence, we can readily understand that “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us," kindling the sacred flame in our hearts. Through these kindled hearts He graciously manifests His infinite love. (I John 417-12). or Have you yielded your entire being to the gentle sway of divine love? s a :- “Seek Jehovah and ye shall live." This was the clarion call of the pro- phet to backsliding Israel. If you look about you, you will see that this same admonition needs to be sounded out in no uncertain tones today. Men are trying to get along without God in spite of their hearts’ yearning for Him. (Amos 511-14). a: ll'hy seek to supress God-given desire? a a a that The Master's blessing makes quan- tities that seems utterly inadequate sufficient when they are left at His disposal. (John 6:5-13). : Let Him bless your spare moments or whatever you may have to give to His cause. *- It is hard for the "old Adam" to forgive and forget a sustained wrong —great or small. And it is harder still to go the WHOLE way in trying to set things aright with the offending brother. This, however, is positive forgiveness, the only kind that brings genuine satisfaction. Most of our actions would be different if we fol- lowed the Mastcr in this respect. (Matthew 18:17-26). 0 Are you williny to loss night a] self in order that you may follow cum truly! a o 0 Jesus' statement, “My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me," seems paradoxical indeed, but it harmouim beautiftu with natural laws. Jesus lived a strong, eflectivs life, not only because He was God, but because He was continually in harmony with the Father’s will. Love, the essence of God’s will, was not merely ideal in Christ, but practical. His forgiving attitude proves that. (John 4:27-88). a . Do your activities will strength .a. to your character? Jesus was a lost boy to His parents, but in reality He was finding His way and rightful place in life. He was associating with those who were searching for truth and with them He gloried in the light of the Word. Scholarship without knowing the Way amounts to about the same as the situation of a young man who is “all dressed up with no place to go." But this need not be. In our midst walks the One who is the Way and the Truth and the Life. (Luke 2:41-51). a Are you permitting Him to reveal the Truth to you that you may know the way? t a v There is but one entrance to the kingdom of God—the Door—Jesus Christ. We are prone to try to enter by way of our works, but that is futile. Christ has done that which is necessary to assure us entrance into and part in His kingdom. (Gene- sis 6:16). t The Door is waiting for you to come. t The palsied man really was in need of Jesus, and with the men who car- ried him, bad faith enough to over- come all hindrances in his Way to the Great Physician. (Luke 5:17-26). Campus Notes Classes were excused on Armistice Day, Nov. 11. Holidays aren’t hard to take, are they? t Hubert and Elwin Dvorachek spent the week-end at their home in Gray Eagle. t A great proportion of the student body feel relieved now that the list showing the class of each student is down from the bulletin board. Many found they were a year behind them— selves, some more than that. a Harold Olson, ’33, and Lavern Lind, ’33, visited their homes in Cannon Falls last week—end. a Miss Elsie Lokken, ’30, who is new teaching at Lindstrom, Minn, was a visitor at school last week-end. t Have you noticed the difierence in the Senior jackets of this year com- pared to those of last year’.’ The class of ’30 had more of an indoor jacket while the seniors have what could be called an outdoor jacket. Ac- cording to this, it looks as if the seniors plan on spending most of their time inside. a Miss Alice Melbye, '30, who has been home for two weeks’ vacation, has resumed her teaching at Lake Park, Iowa. s The final football pep fest was held Friday evening, Nov. 14. “Muggs” Skurdalsvold gave a speech and the Istudents were led in yele and songs. New Books During the last few years, our library has been inestimably im- proved, not only by re—arrangement of books and by building improve- ments. but also by the addition of a great number of the leading texts in all fields of literature. It has been felt that the student body should know of the outstanding additions, so this column shall endeavor to present re- views and criticisms which will make every student better acquainted with the worth of our library. It is im- possible that every new book should be included, but only those which are deemed the most reliable and instruc- tive will be considered. The following are new books: t “Encyrlopedia of Religion. and Ethics." Edited by James Hastings. Charles Sribner‘s Sons, N. Y., 1928. This set has been characterized thus: “An effective instrument for the exploration of the world's thought on the things of the spirit.” This en- cyclopedia is very comprehensive and contains articles on all the religion! of the world and on all the great sys- tem: of ethics. It aims to present articles on every religious belief or custom, and on every ethical move- ment, every philosophical idea. every moral practice. Such persons and places as are famous in the history of religion and morals will be included- Every subject is treated very elabor— ately by a competent author. The work is very scholarly and worth the consideration of every student. (Continued on page 3) Show less

Show moreJohnny Quint Bows To Maroon and Gray Mona ls Leading Scorer With Total of Eighteen Points Augsburg came through victorious in their second conference game, January 14, drubbing St. John’s 42- 22 in a loosely played affair to re- tain the conference leadership. Play was marred by poor passing and wild shots by both teams. The Auggies were unable to hit the loop in the first half, missing numerous attempts under the basket. The de- fcnse was also ragged, giving the Johnnies several shots in foul terrie tory to keep the Auggie margin down considerably until “Lute” Mona, the high riding Auggie ace, hit his stride in the second period. Augsburg scored in the opening seconds when Rnrtvedt. followed in on the opening tip-off play. St. John’s gained a +3 lcad a few moments later on a field goal and a couple gift shots. This lead was short lived as Rortvedt hit the loop several times to give the Auggies a comfortable margin that \\‘1|!~' ncwl' threatened. Mona was high point man of the tilt, scoring eighteen points for a total of 35 in two games.

The Auggies dominated the play throughout the entire game, never bcing heeded after gaining the lead. The floor work and guarding of George Kolesar and “Haak” Ander- son were largely responsible for the showing of the Auggies. Jens Midtaune with three field goals captured the scoring honors of the evening. with Rortvedt with one field goal and three free throws right behind.

Senior Pictures To Be Taken At Zinsmaster The senior class, at a meeting held January 8th, decided to take class pictures at the Zimmaster studios during the month of April. They also decided to have a skat- ing party Saturday, January 17th. The following committee was ap- pointed to make all arrangements: Arthur Iverson, Agnes Ness and Esther Peterson. Augsburg Midgets Lose To Bethel Academites The Bethel giants" of St. Paul scored a 36 to 14 victory over the Academy "Midgets" in a game on the Augsburg court, Friday night, Jan. 9 The first quarter was very fast and exciting. Anderson, guard, opened the game by sinking a basket from the side of the floor. He showed a fighting spirit and played his part as guard very cleverly. Oudal and Iverson, forwards, led in the attack with five baskets, while Oren, center, completed the scoring with a free throw. Among the Alumni O. Myking Mehus, ’16 O. Myking Mehus was bani near Brinsinade, North Dakota, of Norwe- gian parents. He completed his high school courle at Brinsmade, and re- ceived his Bachelor of Arts degree at Augsburg College, in 1916. In college he was active in oratory and debate and was editor of the college paper. He received his M. A. degree from the University of North Dakota in 1920 where he also held a scholarship and did work in sociology and educational psychology. He spent the following two years at the University of Min» nesota in further graduate study to- wards his Ph. D. He held a Teach» ing Fellowship the first year and the second year he was promoted to in- structor in the Department of Socio- logy. In his research work at the University of Minnesota he made an intensive study of the extra—curricu- lar activities of the students at the University. In December 1927, Mr. Mehus read a summary of his find- ings before the American Sociological Society at its meeting in Washing- ton, D. (3. Two years later the Uni- versity press published a book con- taining a report of his project. Mr. Mehus has had twelve years of teaching experience.

In spite of the fact that there was such a difierence in size of the play- ers of the two squads, the Augs- burgians outplayed the Bethelites in nearly every respect. Academites Defeated By Concordia Quint The Augsburg Academy five lost their second conference encounter, Tuesday night, falling before a mighty Concordia quintet on the local iloor, 30—4. The first half ended in a very one- aided score of 24—0, though the local boys were only outscored by one has- ket in the latter half. The Augsburg Midgets were no match for their big- ger and more experienced opponents. Justin Oudal, the little Auggie flash, scored one of the Augsburg counters from mid-floor, while Oren counted the other, dribbling under the basket to loop the other. Bertram, guard, and Teyler, center, were the outstanding performers of the evening. making the most out of their superior height. Iveraon, Anderson, Blake, Johnson, and Meraeth were the other Augs- burg entries. Ibsen Is Subject 0f Phi Gamma Discussion Phi Gamma was entertained at Myriella, January 12, by Mr. Clement IAesland and Mr. Ole Helland. Ibsen was the subject of their study. Agnes Ness read extracts from Doll's House," and [Aster Johnson read a scene from the drama, “Peer Gyn ". Agnes Hagen gave a short sketch of the author's life. Mr. Leesland discussed the life and works of Ibsen briefly, and Dr. B. M. Christensen shared with the smdents some reminiscences of the Ibnu fes- tival in Norway in 1928. Mr. Geoorge Salveson played a saw solo, and refreshments were served by the hosts. State Teachers' Colege at Maryville, Missouri. He was married to Miss Emma Helle of Fergus Falls, Minn., in 1920. As yet he has made no trips abroad but his letter states that is one thing he wishes to do after securing his Ph. D. He is a member of the follow- ing organizations: The American So- ciological Society, Pi Gamma Mu, Kappa Phi Kap, American Associa- tion of University Professors, Na- tional Educational Association, and Nodaway County Red Cross Execu- tive Council. This year he is the Missouri State chairman for the Paris Peace Pact essay contest among high schools and district chairman of the Northwest Missouri Social Wel- fare Conference. While at Augsburg, Mr. Mehus was an ardent prohibitionist. In his letter he writes, “In the past Augs- burg was noted for its firm stand on prohibition. I hope that it will send out men and women who are intelli- gently interested also in other move- ments, such as world peace, race re- lations, and economic problems. To— day we need collegestrained men and women who will apply the teachings of Jesus to our modern social prob— lems. Religion is a vital force in our social relations or else it is not the kind of religion that Jesus taught." sAusuxcERs LIGHT LUNCHES Rasmussen Hamburger Shop 2E4 Riverside Ave. Auggies Down Tommies In Conference Opener “Lute” Mona Leads Mates To Sensational Victory Augsburg's 1930 cagers came through with a sensational victory in their opening conference game, Jan. 10, taking a brilliant St. Thomas team into camp by a slight margin, 27-24 on the latter’s court. Though the Auggies possessed the lead throughout most of the battle the Tommies pressed their opponents to the limit and often threatened to take the lead in the closing minutes. At no time did either team enjoy suffi- cient margin to feel comfortable. The accurate eye of “Lute” Mona was the feature of the contest as he led his mates to victory, contributing a total of 17 points to the Auggie total. His brilliancy pulled the game out of the fire several times through- out, to stem the powerful attack of the purple wave. Captain Rortvedt had an off night offensively, as the two Augsburg guards performed in an exceptional manner. Anderson in- terrupted several Tommy attemps that might have otherwise been count- ers, while Kolesar directed most of the play. Coach “Si” Melby used but seven men to subdue the foe who substituted freely, using eleven men during the forty minutes of play. The St. Thomas substitutes played equally as well as the starters. Captain AntiI was the stellar performer for the Tommie quint playing both a strong defensive and offensive game, consti- tuting the main obstacle in Augs- burg‘s progress. Rortvedt tied the score up at 1 all with a free throw in the opening mo- ments followed by a couple goals from the court by Anderson and Midtaune to give the local boys 3 four point ad vantage. This'lead was short lived as the St. Thomas forwards combined forces to take the lead 9-12 only to lose it when Mona tossed a couple of difiicult shots through the hoop, re- taining the lead to the end of the fray. The Auggies led at half time 1442. Though the shooting and passing of both teams was ragged at times, never did the game become dull. From start to finish it was a nip and tuck tussle between two of the outstanding teams in the conference, with the Auggies holding a slight advantage in team play and working the ball into shooting range. A couple field goals in the closing moments of the game brought the Tommies up trail- ing by the slight margin of one point and threatened seriously to capture the honors, but Mona came through again with a field goal, driving into the basket heavily guarded to put the game on ice with seconds to go.

Silver Tea Is Given By Concordia Society Proceeds For New Lights In Theological Lecture Room The Concordia Society sponsored a silver tea in the Main, Wednesday, January 14, from three to four—thirty o’clock and after the basketball game in the evening. The proceeds of the ten go toward paying for the new lights in the theo- logical lecture room. These lights were installed last Saturday by a com- mittee composed of John Dahlen, War- ren Hansen, and Malvin Rossing, with Gustner Nelson. the school en- gineer, in charge. The society is phoning a number of other improvements for the room also. Still In The Dark "East Hall. West Hall, all around the block The only thing the cmeds do is talk, talk, talk." And what do they have to talk about? Well, jusx now they are probably speculating and guessing about the meaning of the mysteri- ous words Dark Night which have been so prominently displayed on the bulletin board lately. Isn't it about time a little light were shed on the subject? We confess we are rather pruud in announcing Thar we have ub- laincd a lilIlc “inside infurmu» tion" on the matter.

Two former students, Valborg Brunsvold and Ruth Myhre, are teaching in Alaska? Mission Group Hears Rev. M. A. Pederson Lectures on Gandhi and the Present Situation In India Rev. M. A. Pederson spoke on Gandhi and the present trend of af- fairs in India at the meeting of the Mission Study Group, January 7. “England has done much for In- dia," said Rev. Pederson. The intro- duction of an educational program has been uphill work because of the caste system and aversion to the edu- cation of women. Gandhi was spoken of as one of the greatest men in the world today, but his motives for starting his last passive resistance movement were questioned. The ques- tion of whether Great Britian shall have the monopoly on the manufac- turing of salt in India is one of the issues musing mhch trouble. The speaker did not believe India was ready for independence. Three Alumni Receive Degrees At University Three Augsburg alumni, two of whom are members of the faculty, re- ceived their degrees at the University of Minnesota at the mid-winter grad- uation, which was held Dec. 17, 1930. Miss Selma Storien, librarian, re- ceived her B. S. degree in the field of library. Prof. Henry N. Hendrick- son, head of the history department, was given his M. A. degree in history. Benjamin Kleven, a former member of the faculty, also received his M. A. degree in the field of history.

He showed how Jesus steps down among men and fellowships with them, alle- viating both their physical and spiri- tual needs. Again the speaker brought out exultantly how Jesus answers the trusting prayer with His emphatic “I will." Jesus is the same today as He was of yore, anxious to cleanse man’s loathsome leprosyisin. This is one of the three regular series of gospel meetings to be held during the year. Special music is furnished by the students each even- ng.

We all feel a glow of exhilaration upon entering a new quarter because of the challenge which it presents to us. It is true that many of our courses are a continuation of last quarter's work, but we have the opportunity to make this one more success- ful through profiting by the mistakes and triumphs of the past quarter. There are always numerous ways in which we can make our work more successful than in the past; but each one of us can judge this best for himself by the unfinished tasks which con- front him and by the mistakes which he has made. Each new quarter should surpass the past one in achievement. We must not, however, become so absorbed in our daily tasks and duties that we lose sight of the greater things in life. We are fortunate here at Augsburg that these things are kept before our minds—through the chapel services, religious activities, and in the classroom. Because of these great opportunities, our re- sponsibilities are so much greater. It is well to be mindful of these things at the beginning of the year, so that we will not have to regret later that we did not make full use of our privileges. Let us meet the challenge of a new quarter by having the strength of character, the resolution, and the faith to confront our problems and complete our tasks day by day—never losing sight of our great opportunities and, in turn, our great responsi- bility. —M. S. THE HONOR SYSTEM Aside from being an exercise in spelling, the honor pledge at Augsburg is like a scarecrow, the eyes of which have been picked out by the very birds which it sought to frighten. Not that it matters. It only flaps its arms once or twice a quarter anyway. To the honest student the honor pledge makes no difference whatsoever. We cannot see that it does much for the dishonest student either. To sign one's name insincerely would be scarcely more difficult than to cheat. There are some, however, who claim that there is some psychological reaction in the words, “I pledge on my word of honor,” which helps them to do the right thing. We question the genuine tone of a morale which functions only when keyed in such a manner. There is the instructor who trusts his students absolutely until they have proved themselves unfaithful. There is the instructor who trusts no one, but paces up and down a room, ready to pounce upon an offender at the least suspicion. There is the teacher who gives the questions and requests the honor pledge, hoping that everyone will answer the former and keep the latter. It is said that there is a. minimum of dishonesty at Augsburg. We would not Want to have as much here as we have heard exists at other places. We do not want to have any. The fault is, perhaps, not so much that of the honor pledge. The pledge at least expresses an ideal for which it is worthwhile to strive. Where student opinion and the general student atmos- phere are elevated and noble, the cheat will not feel comfortable enough to stay. Practices which are not tolerated lethlisIap‘pear. JOY OF LIFE A great deal of the joy of life consists in doing perfectly, or at least to the best of one’s ability, everything which one attempts to do. There is a sense of satisfaction, a pride in surveying such a work—a work which is rounded, full, exact, complete in all its parts—which the superficial man, who leaves his work in a slovenly, slipshod, half-finished condition, can never know. It is this conscientious completeness which turns work into art. The smallest thing, well done, becomes artistic. ——William Mathews. CAMPUS NOTES It seems nice to have the studenu back at school and everything in full swing again. The old place looked mighty lonely during the holidays. Welcome, new students! s Yes, believe it or not, the Echo room is almost completely furnished. A group of hard-working staff mem- bers got busy during vacation and completed the room with everything except a fire-place. 0 Well, now it. will be another year until Christmas comes again. When we all came back, did you notice the new ties, scarfs, spate, pencils, watches, and the other usual gifts! s Mr. Nash has a new aquarium in his room. Listen students, fishing season doesn't open until May 15th. 0 We are all pleased to see "Mugs" Skurdalsvold back with us sguin. We understand he is writing a book called “The Art of Hunting." :3 Mrs. Carlson, assistant to Mrs. Johnson in the dining hall, is con- fined to the Fairview Hospital with s bad case of pneumonia. 3 We are very glad to welcome Mr. Thompson, our janitor, back after a long siege of sickness. A pep meeting was held in the gymnasium, Friday evening under the direction of Norman Flagstad in pre- paration for the St. Thomas game. Captain Otto Rortvedt and Assistant Coach Jimmy Pederson gave short talks on behalf of the team. A great deal of enthusiasm was shown. it Riverside Park has become a popu- lar rendezwous for the Auggie skat- ers. Members of the W. A. A. have started the new year by playing has- kethnll.

A fitting commemoration of the nine—hundredth anniversary of the ad- vent of Christianity into Norway is this life story of King Olav the Saint, by J. J. Skordalsvold. Mingling authentic historical facts with the many interesting but more questionable legends of King Olav's day, the author has succeeded in producing a fascinating account of early Viking history. “The aim of this booklet is to give a simple sketch of the life of King Olnv the Saint and of his contribu» tions to the life of the Norwegian people," according to the author. He has succeeded remarkably Well in ful- filling his purpose. For young Norwegian-American ’ who are ' ’ in the land and history of their forbears, this little volume is heartily recom- mended. It can do much to awaken in them a feeling of pride and interest in their Viking heritage. —B. H. CRITICISM There is something small about the person who is always ready to criti- cise other people and their doings. but who invariably seeks to wriggle him- Self out of the responsibility of con- sidering the criticism by another per- son upon his own life. He seems to derive some sort of comfort out of be- littling his neighbor. not realizing that in so doing his own nobler self shrivels up to s pigmy size in order that it might hide bahind the per- ticulsr fault or mistake in question. 0n the other hand, there is some— thing distinctly noble about the man who in humility Ind love beers with another’s faults and only calls his at» tentiou to them as a friend. This he does sympathetically and in the spirit of truest brotherhood. He has imbibed some musure of the spirit of the Gmt Teacher.

Echoes And Reechoes Jan. 1901 Claus Morgan and O. C. Dnhlsger are the new editors of the Echo. George Martin, of the class of ’98, has left for the Phillipine islands where he will join the Hospital Corps.

Claus Morgan has been elected president of the boarding club.

Annual Yuletide Party Held In Gymnasium (Continued from page 1) a poem by Francis Thompson, was read by Beatrice Hellnnd, after which Alexander Borrevik played a violin solo. Mr. Rudolph Goransou was his accompanist. The address of the evening was given by President Sverdrup. His thoughts centered around the Babe Jesus and His coming to earth. The Choral Society sang “The Mid- night Hour,” and then Prof. Hem drickson invited everyone to join in singing Christmas carols as they marched around the tree. During this time the usual refreshments, candy and apples, were passed around. Sophomorically Speaking We hear rumors that another so- ciety is being formed.

But don't large! that a championship isn't everything: it docs not mean that the Auggics will not have and are not having a sitcom/u: season. The players are trging to do their shore; now let’s have the Auggie supporters meet them half way. It's tougher on the phgers and the coaches to lose games than it is on the fans, because thry spend at [cast two and a hall hours a day in hard pre- paration for these games.

The Auggies wore playing under huge handicaps. “Him/c" An- derson, the fighting Auggie guard, left a hole in the Augsburg de- fense when the “flu” got the best of him. A few hours before the St. 0qu game “Red” Hanson, who played so well against Mac and would have started against the 0198, got the “bugs” and was also rmhfi’nltl to the sick bed. Mona also was greatly weakened by hid recent illness; this in no small way slowed up the Auggie scoring punch. a n c o “Emile” Knutsen has been wamling the bench most of the season this year, but with the absence of Anderxon, he played guard against thc Olos.

Young People Meet At Bible Conference (Continued from page 1) thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." To be saved is to attain this purpose for which we were created. Thursday evening the text was taken from Genesis 13:16-19. Be- cause of man’s disobedience three curses were put upon him by God: the curse of labor, the curse of sexual lust. and the curse of death. From the first two curses there is a possi- bility of escape, but from death there is no escape. Christ is our sin bearer. He came that we might have life. He has given us victory over death. “Nevertheless know this. the King- dom of God is come nigh unto you," was Dr. Christensen's theme Friday evening. When you feel the Word of God gripping you, then you are near His Kingdom Failure to enter in is rejecting Christ. One of the saddest things in life is that so many come near the kingdom of God but do not enter in. Auggie Quint Upset By St. Thomas Cadets The St. Thomas College basketball quint scored an upset Wednesday night when it came through for a 32- 29 win over the Augsburg quiat at the Pillsbury House floor to even up the series between the two. The Cadet quint jumped into an early lead on a beautiful tip-in shot by Delmont early in the game and never relinquished the lead. The Tommies ran up their score to 17-11 lead at the half, and came right back in the second half to run up a 17 point lead. At this point Coach Melby sent in I flock of substitutes who put up a great battle during the closing min- utes of play, which nearly pulled the game out of the fire and brought the Tommy lead to five points. Harold Kobs, guard, and Ken Jacobson, for- ward. contributed some brilliant long ahots that would have probably spelled disaster for the Cadets if the game had been a few minutes longer. Delmont playing at guard instead of his customary forward position was the sparkplug of the Tommy at- tack, feeding the ball to his forwards for many tip-in shots. Summon with nine points was the high point man for the winners. “Lute” Mona, leading conference scorer, was held to two field goals, but dropped in four free throws to cap- ture scoring honors for the Auggies. Among the Alumni Dr. J. 0. Dyrnes, ’92 Perhaps one of the most outstand- ing alumni of our school is Dr. J. 0. Dyrnes, a medical missionary at Manasoa, Madagascar; not outstand- ing because his name has been recog» nized by a large number of people, but because of his love and self»sacri» fice for a sinvstricken people. Dr. Dyrnes was born on the island of Smolen, Nordmore, near Trond- hjem, Norway in 1867. He came to America as a young man and entered Augsburg College in 1888 where he received his 3. A. degree in 1892 and his C. T. degree in 1895. He con- tinued his studies at the Hamline College of'l’hysicians and Surgeons and received his M. D. degree in 1898. Dr. Dyrnes practiced medicine in various Minnesom towns until 1899, when he was called by the Board of Missions to go to Madagascar as a medical misisonary. Immediately he gave up his practice, which to him meant a great sacrifice, and went abroad to further prepare himself for his future work. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Paris. Dr. Dyrnes was ordained as a medical missionary by the Lutheran pastor, Buchsen- schutz, in 1900. Dr. Dyrnes began his medical work at Manama, Madagascar, in 1900. He is the only medical missionary sent to that field by the Lutheran Board of Missions, and he is the only medical missionary on the whole island. The mission work he has done has grown to great proportions. During the thirty-one years of labor on the field, Dr. Dyrnes has served as doctor, teacher and preacher. He has had charge of a station district, and has been at the head of all the school work. He has built a primary school with a normal department which has attendance of almost two hundred students a year. Until recent years he has had charge of all this work, including a Bible school for the train- ing of evangelists. Though {ever has repeatedly attacked him, and he has been in the grip of death, God has spared him for his work. The unique thing about his work is his ability to accomplish a great deal without elaborate buildings and equip ment. During the years spent as a medical missionary he has been home on two short furloughs, in 1910 and 1919. He has been asked when he intends to return again, but as yet Free delivery service Fairview Cleaners DYERS & LAUNDERERS 2426 Riverside Ave. Geneva 3266 he has given no definite answer. Dr. Dyrnes has represented the Lutheran the gospel of Christ.

The Auggies were without the serv- ices of Lute Mona. scoring ace, who was taken ill Monday night and was confined to his bed Tuesday. The Macalester team jumped into an early lead when Mileke tipped in a short shot and soon ran up an 11 to 4 lead before Madsen scored a free throw for the AuggieS. The Auggies cut down the Mac lead to three points with the score 12 to 9 at the half. In the second half the Augg'ies were bewildered when the scoring play built around Varner were put into ac- tion by the Macs. In a few minutes the St. Paul team had run up a lead of 22-12. The Auggies came back to cut down the Mac lead, but the Gowanites started a stalling game during the last few minutes in an efiort to check the Auggies. In the closing seconds of the game Red Hanson tossed in a basket and free throw, cutting down the Mac lead to one point. The Auggies missed many scoring opportunities and free throws galore, tie and possibly a victory. Macs. while Jacobson with nine points led his teammates. Ernie Madson teaming with “Jake” at the forwards played a nice floor game, adding a great deal of speed into the front line until a bad bump forced his removal from the game.

MIN THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26. 1931 NL’MER :l Angsbln'g Brmdtasts Progralns_0_ver WRHM Pres. George Sverdrup, Dr. Karl Ermisch Are Speakers Augsburg broadcast its first ra- dio programs over station WRHM, Wesley Temple building, Wednesday evenings, February 18 and 25, It 6:30. Pres. George Sverdrup spoke on “The [deals of Augsburg," and the Choral Society, under the direction of Prof. H. P. Opseth, sang the fol- lowing numbers: "Darkness Fell on the Earth" by Paleatrina, “One Sweetly Solemn Thought" by Am- brose—Brown, “0 Lamb of God, I Come" by Carvel, “Dear Lord and Father of Mankind” by Hosmer, “Upon the Mount of Olives" by Croce, and “By the Waters of Baby- lon" by Neidlinger. The speaker for the second pro— gram given Wednesday, February 25. was Dr. Karl Ennisch, and the Augs- burg Glee Club sang. Their numbers consisted of “How Lovely are Thy Dwelling Places" by Brahms. “Bells of Eventide" by Rachmaninofi and Black, “Even Song" by Protheral, “It is the bird’s Own Day" by Kreut- zer, and "At the Close of Day" by Nevin. These programs, which will be a regular Wednesday evening feature, are under the supervision of Frank Salveson. Freshmen Entertain Friday Thirteenth ' Class Shows Varied Talent in Presentation of ‘lt’s Here’ On Friday evening, February 13, the Freshman class definitely proved to Augsburg and the rest of the uni- verse that Fate has no power over young ambitions, for on that night their class program was given. Previous to that day, which has such disastrous consequences in the minds of some. the halls of Augsburg were placarded with numerous green pos- tern denoting that “It’s Here" would soon occur. To those individuals whose inquisitiveness had been aroused, this day proved to be at great enlightenment, for all the laws of superstition were annulled by an exceptionally good program. The “Fresh” Orchestra opened the entertainment with the selection, "Good Evenin’." What this group lacked in numbers it provided in spirit and enthusiasm. A quartette consisting of Fritwf Morgan, Everett Eatness, Herbert Johnson, and Ar» thur‘Opseth sang two groups of songs on the regular program and during the social hour they rendered several others. Another musical feature was a group of vocal solos by Herbert Johnaon. The musical talent of the girls was disclosed by a aextette of school girls, composed of Helen Lee, Crystal Mo— line. Borghild Olson. Bertha Lillehei, Doris Nilaen. and Ham] Hauge. Their numbers were highly enter- taining, especially the initial one un- der the effective leadership of Andy Rinde's baton—a baseball hat. The old story of Little Red Riding Hood was humorously interpreted by Andy Rinde and Charles Retrum; the old prowler's allusion to having large eyes to facilitate his reading of the "Folkcbladet" seemed to draw the greatest applause. We were again reminded of “Dark Night" by the number, “Nigger Puppets," which was a clever presentation by Arthur Opseth and Fritxof Morgan. A very pleasing skit of French de sign was enacted by Elsie Tollefson, (Continued on page 2) Young People Meet At Bible Conference Dr. Chriatenacn Speaks, Music By Church Choir: The Twin City Young People's Federation of the Lutheran Free Church held a Bible conference and rally last week at Olivet Lutheran Church. Meetings were held every evening, beginning Tuesday, Feb. 17, and continuing through Friday. Dr. B. M. Christensen was the speaker, and Alexander Borrevik, president of the Central Committee, led the ses- sion. Music was furnished by the various church choirs, and a few short testimonies were given each evening by young people from the Twin Cities. The meetings were so Vvell attended that it was found neces- sary to move the conference to Trini- ty Church on Sunday in order to ac» commodatc the crowd. Tuesday evening Dr. Christensen spoke on the text: "....Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted. shall be rooted up." Some. times God’s people may lose faith and at times it may Seem as if His cause is lost, but someone always appears to take up His banner and carry on His work. “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away." “For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost." This was the topic Wednesday even— ing. What is the purpose of life? It is to glorify God and enjoy Him for- ever.

The Athletic Banquet, an annual event, is given in honor of the ath- letes and coaches. Services Conducted By Religion Class The members of the college class in Comparative Religion had charge of the Gospel services at the Gateway Mission on Thursday evening, Feb- ruary 19. Prof. J. S. Melby was the speaker of the evening. He based his talk on Romans 1 :6 where the apostle Paul says. “1 am not ashamed of the Gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that be- lieveth," The speaker called the at- tention of his audience to the Greek word for power from which the word "dynamite" is derived, showing how the Gospel will break up sinful lives so that the new life in Christ may be established and developed, “Thus. the Gospel is the dynamite of God unto salvation," Prof. Melby said. Duets were sung by Naomi Fram- stad and Sylvia Nelson and Olaf Hcl» land and Lawrence Bueide.

S, Olympic of the White Star Line. With him were his wife and two children. They will proceed overland through France by way of Paris and Marseilles, and from there the missionary family will travel by ship across the Mediter- ranean through the Suez Canal and south along the east coast oi Africa. They expect to reach the mission field the latter part of April. Rev. Vaage- nes will be in charge of the Betroka station. The departing missionary extended his farewell greetings to Augsburg in 3 Chapel talk on Friday morning, February 13. He spoke of the con- straining power of the love of Christ and pointed out how it has led many men and women to sacrifice their all on the mission field, how it still is the motive of consecrated service. It is this motive, he said, that prompted his returning to the mission field. He declared by way of a personal testi- mony that he was “not ashamed of the Gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation.” The economic and social develop ments in Madagascar present a tre» mendous challenge to the Church. Rev. Vaagenes stated. He said that (Continued on page 2) Preliminary Sigvald Qvale Contest Held Ten Students Will Compete For Silver Medal in March The elimination contest. pl'cpal'ar tory m the Sigvald Qvalc Norse Sil. ver Medal contest, was conducted February 20.

Because these rules are so simple eand yet perhaps so hard to keep—and because they are rules which we can all practice in order to add to our happiness and the happiness of others, we repeat them here. Only on one condition, however. will these rules serve their purpose, and that is that each one of them must be practiced every day. Mrs. Palmer stressed this a great deal, and said that if a single day is skipped, the rules will not work. The first rule is that we commit something to memory every day—a Bible verse, a bit of a poem, or a single thought expressed in beautiful language. This should be something that we would be happy to remember if we should some day become blind—a thought that would bring pleasure, comfort, and peace through meditating upon it at some other time. The second rule is to look for something beautiful every day and stop long enough to say “Is it not beautiful 1" Whether it be a leaf, a flower, or cloud we must drink in every bit of its loveli- mess. The last rule is to do something for somebody every day. This does not mean that we perform only the things which we are ac- customed to doing every day to those who expect it of us, but that we do something extra to add to the happines of others. Are not these rules worthy of being lived up to? If following them adds to our own happiness it also bring happiness to others, because a happy person cannot help but infuse some of the same spirit into those with whom he comes in contact. —M. S. KNOWING THE LAW AND ABIDING BY IT Authority at Augsburg has never maintained a watch—dog at- titude. There have been few rules. These have been left to our honor, pride, or sense of student citizenship to be kept, not to be broken. There is some excuse for one who breaks a law which he did not know existed, but to knowingly disregard a rule is to offend against the whole group. The real test comes when no one is looking. The traffic signal says, “Stop!” No cars are coming from any direction and no policeman is in sight. Do I go? I could get away with it. “Getting away with it” has come to be the standard by which success is measured in the world today. To study as little as possible for a certain grade; to cut class and hope that roll will not be taken; to bluff when we do not know; to sell three different grades of cofiee at nine different prices; to use political ofiice for personal ends—all these are to be “gotten away with." Being honest and trustworthy does not place one’s name in the headlines, but that is the way to walk at liberty—in the liberty of a good conscience. —G. J. J. New Books “The Critique of Humanism”.

This scholarly Work is a discussion by thirteen difl'erent writers concern- ing the trend of modern humanism.

Her vocal studies were begun in Paris and were continued in Munich and Milan. after she had become the wife of Baron Onegin, a Russian nobleman, who died not long after she had estab» lished her career of unusual brilliance as concert and grand opera singer. Her debut was made in Berlin in 1912. The operatic career of Mine. One» gin was commenced at Stuttgart where with but two days’ notice she undertook the title role in “Carmen” for a gala performance with Caruso as the honor guest in the part of Don Jose. Her success led to further en- gagements which finally included the important opera houses of Europe, such as Paris, Milan, Berlin, Vienna, Munich, Stockholm, and Madrid. For many years now she has also sung in the Convent Garden opera house in London. While a member of the Munich opera she was heard by Direc~ tor Gatti-Casazza, who engaged her for the Metropolitan Opera of New York of which organization she is now a prominent member. Mme.

Through kind~ nd atudiu students have been brought together to solve the diflicult problems of school life. There is the literary society which has been "a [mat element in the formation of character" and in the development of intellectual taste. Then there is also the social life and intercourse that may seem to be less important. Yet there have been times when conversations have pro— dueod great cultural values. And, alter all, the best and most valuable instruction comes from contact of mind with mind. The student that keeps himself away from these things losea much, and gets very little out of life. —A. O.

St. Peter Hospital Visited By Students (Continued from page 1) A large number of patients are given the malaria treatment. These cases are put under observation for three months in order that the re- sponse to treatment may be deter- mined. Many of the less sevcre cases are cured in this way. Mr. Freeman. superintendent of the hospital, gave a talk on the institu- tion itself. There are 1,800 cases at St. Peter at the present time, with an increase of 200 cases each year.

Bleachers ought to be built, because it is against the tire laws to stand in the aisles. After the seats are put in, somebody ought to start selling tickets. It would be an op- portunity for somebody to pay his way through college, or it would help the boys pay for the radio. Of course, it is understood that the boys wouldn’t be taxed. 0 Everybody is going in for minia- ture things as cars, vacuum cleaners, golf courses, and people are even moving into play houses. There is one thing that would be greatly wel- corned and that is a miniature college course for a B. A. degree; say about a six months course, or even a year, wouldn’t be so bad. Gustavus Is Upset By Mill City Quint The Auggies gained revenge for an earlier defeat at the hands of the Gusties when they invaded the St. Peter camp February 26, and de- feated the Gustavus basketball team 26-20. The teams matched shot for shot eral times. shooting by Jens Midtaune and gain a 14-10 lead at the half. The Augsburg team was playing kept gaining a bigger lead, but with staged a rally and ran the score 20‘ 19, a point behind Augsburg. Ja- cobson and Kolesar then scored on gift shots and Kolesar and Mona made field goals to run the Auggies to 26. Rube Youngdahl dropped in a free throw to end his team’s scor- g. It was the Auggies' ability on the free throw line that enabled them to win over the Gusties. The losers made but four out of twenty, while the Auggies made good twelve out of nineteen. Rortvedt and Anderson did stellar work in guarding the driving Young» dahl, who was held to a single goal, although both Auggie players were forced out of the game on personal fouls.

The Hamline team started out with a bang when captain Cosgrove put in a basket and a pair of free throws before the Auggies mllied. At this point “Stub” Rortvedt, playing his last game for the Maroon and Gray, went on a scoring rampage, collecting four field goals while Hamline count- ed once. In the second half the Hamline beam was bewildered by the flurry of short shots by Jens Midtaune and “Lute” Mona. The Hamline team on the short end of a 29-17 score, came back strong in the closing minutes of play, when Manella scored a basket and a pair of free throws, and Graves, a speedy guard, dropped in three field goals from out on the floor to cut the Augs- burg lead to two points. However, George Kolesar put on a beautiful dribbling exhibition to safely hold the lead until fouled by Graves, when he added another point on a free toss, to send the Augg'ie total to 30. Captain Otto Rortvedt led his mates in scoring with six field goals, while “Lute” Mona, also playing his last game for the Auggies, kept in the fight for conference scoring hon- ors with nine points. Jens Midtaune, playing his last conference game, again turned in a nice hit of work as his “swan song".

A mission hymn was sung by the audience, after which numerous pic- tures of the native life of the island were shown with accompanying re- marks by Rev. Tverberg.

Pastor Addresses Students, Faculty Rev. Edwin Paulson. pastor at Foley, Minn, addressed the faculty and student body during the Chapel hour on Monday, March 2. Students It a Christian school have great opportunities and privileges, and with them come heavy responsi— bilities, said Rev. Paulson. Pastors and congregations have a right to ex- pect students to be Christian leaders when they return to the congrega- tions. If students are to be leaders, they must have a clear concept of Christ as their Savior and Redeemer—they must know what Christianity is. Rev. Paulmn is a brother of Prof. Adolph Paulaon.

Dr. Brusendorf first gave a sketch of the educational system of Copen- hagen and compared it to the Amer» ican system The Danes believe that a special kind of education is neces- sary for various kinds of personali- ties and people, while the Americans think a common education is suited to all. If a Danish student is not men- tally fitted for the University, he leaves school at the age of sixteen and goes out into the world to work. If he shows promise he is educated in a school until he is eighteen, at which time he enters the university. The most brilliant are selected for civil service ofi'ices. They receive good salaries and hold high positions socially and politically. “A Dane is more careful and prua dcnt than the adventurous American. He is satisfied with a safe position and does not long for a brflliant car- eer. He likes to make progress slow- ly," said Dr. Brusendorf. “There are five thousand students at the University of Copenhagen. which makes it practically the same size as the University of Minnesota without the school of dentistry, farcsA try, agricuilui‘c, engineering, and mines. The Dane is by nature more studk ous than the average American. So- cial life plays a very small part at the university except for the literary discussion groups and the students‘ union, The students' union is more of a political hotbed than a social or» ganization. It trains the students to be active politicans.

Thus it is'as we leave each task. There is a feeling of satisfaction at service per- formed; not all satisfaction, surely, for we see many things which have been poorly done, but a certain joy in the feeling that we have given of ourselves to a work worthwhile. We hear a great deal about service of various kinds. Produc- tion of the “Echo” may not be considered a great service, but let us think of it as a bundle of little services voluntarily performed by the members of the staff. These students may be encouraged as we were when we read the words of the poet Wordsworth, “Small service is true service while it lasts." To the students wllo have now completed their “Echo” service our apprcciation is due, Some have spent almost four years in this work, The kind cooperation of Prof. P. A. Sveeggen, our faculty adviser, alld Mr. W. G. Johnson, instructor in journalism, is gratefully acknowledged. We have tried, through the columns of this paper, to give a true picture of the school life at Augsburg. This is being viewed from many angles, for we find our readers in many places and ill many walks of life. There are the students in the five hundred high schools to which the “Echo” is sent. Alumni and friends in our congregations throughout the country are our subscribers. Surcly not lcast important is the group of student readers at school. It has been our endeavor to make the “Echo” serve as a real means of contact between Augsburg and our subscribers. It is with confidence in our successors that we leave the “Echo” stuff. We fch that they will be able to carry on with greater succcss the work which we have tried to d0. ‘8. H. “STUDENT” ATTITUDE TOWARD STUDY Why the average student goes to college, it would be difi‘icult to say. of the intention to study one hears a great deal, but the evidence of its beingr carried out is very meager. Some have pcriodic spurts of industry in the eleventh hour before a quiz, but the stream tends to run ill the direction of wasted minutes, the sum of which rises into hours of inaccomplishment. The real student is rare. College people seem to think that "student" and “bookworm” are synonymous terms, and to be a bookworm is to bc a stale. musty stick-in-the mud, a lone species of being who is too different to be understood, by them at least. The usual college person lives too much by quarters. It is a matter of sliding until mid-quarter, cramming, letting up until about thrce weeks before finals, and then of scrambling informa- tion in order to present a fair report card at the end. But the laying of a foundation upon which one can safely build a future career is not thought of, else why the half»learned lessons, the constant yielding to the pleasure of pleasure instead of the joy of study? Instead of mature dependabi ty the instructor finds the desire to do a minimum amount of work for a maximum grade. Knowl- edge of a subject consists of loosely connected facts held together bv the slender thread of the temporary challenge of a blue book. i To go to college is not to follow the path of least resistance. if tllc purpose of college is rightly understood.

Sophomorically Speaking Just when we were all set to make some sophomorical remnrks about the East Hall snow man the weather had to turn temperamental. o The spring fever epidemic shouldn't be as violent this year—it has lasted all winter. t You can tell it really isn‘t spring yetiwc haven't heard a single ru- .nor about any of our leading lights not planning to return next year. .
