Show moreW‘ ‘ , April as, 1956 ManIlato Teachers Win Cinder Meet at Carleton Coach Ernie Anderson took his four~man track team to the eighth annual Carleton relays at North- ﬂeld, Saturday, April 21, and came back with nine points together with a rather proud feeling for the showing his small team made. This year’s field of entries was the largest in the history of the event, won this time by a powerful Mankato State Teach- ers team which was led by the brilliant LeRoy Loewen who scored 251/2 points by himself. Three men in the lilo—yard dash and a 440 relay team composed Augsburg’s entry in the fifteen team field. In the century, Dean Holmes and Dick Robinson qualified for the finals while freshman Ice Olson was eliminated in the fastest qualifying heat turning in a very good time. In the finals Robinson placed fourth and picked up two points for Augsburg. The relay team composed of Robinson, Olson, Stan Baker, and Holmes tied Concordia for second place, but the Auggies might have finished first if it hadn't been for a poor handoff by the third and fourth men. Macalester was the winner of the relay. Mankato finished the 15 event program with 79 points. Following Mankato in this order were: St. Olaf, Carleton, Concordia, Macalester, St. John’s,- St. Thomas, Augsburg, Hamline, Northwestern College, Luther seminary, Gustavus, and St. Cloud THE AUGSIURG ECHO *PNOYO Ev NUsFLoEN Baker shows starting poise . . .

It was an explosive first inning for the Tommies. who collected four runs on three walks and two hits. St. Thomas went on to score in the fourth inning with the only home run of the game, made by Tommy pitcher Meyer. The Toms also scored in the fifth and sixth innings. Meyer allowed only three hits to hold the Auggics scoreless. Jim Plumedahl got on base by an er- ror in the first inning. then stole second and third. The Auggies then went down in order. In the second inning, after Ron Stave struck out, Carl Hellzon hit a single and proceeded to second on a wild pitch. Lockwood and Nel- FirslL Inning son then struck out to retire the side.

Fish were being caught by the bucketful last weekend as thou» sands of enthusiastic sportsmen lined the beach of Minnesota Point on Lake Superior. Smelt fishing was a new and exciting experience for me as Mom, Dad, Tal and I made the trip to Duluth. As we approached the shoreline on both Friday and Saturday night, fires could be seen along the beach outlining thousands of fisher- men. Many of them had already entered the lake with their nets and some already had netted a large number of smelt. Most smelt fishermen begin their evening: work about 8:30 pm. with some staying on the beach all night. The smelt are netted much on the order of seining [or minnows. Two times we returned to shore with nothing in the net except wood and other debris from the lake. Several times we returned with as many as 30 smelt in the net, the average, however, was approximately 15-18 fish in each run. It is my personal opinion that smelt fishing is a great deal of fun, that is if you like cold weather, wet feet and, of course, fish. My as- sumption must be partly correct in view of the fact that we met smelt fishermen who had come from as far away as Texas to enjoy the sport, At present, indoor activities for gals in the gym are coming to a close. The team sports for women class has finished their unit on volleyball and soon will be starting softball. The freshmen activity classes have been learning exercises and techniques for improving posture. If you notice some of the freshmen diligently watching their posture you'll know the reason why. .\ Now in 1956...

Show morePage Four Let's Teach Russian FRAN K RYKKEN'S story of the Russian profes- sor in the last issue of the Echo was written in the hope that the professor might be given an oppor- tunity to use his talents. Perhaps Augsburg is in a position to give him this opportunity and at the same time take a big step in the expansion of our academic program. Several church schools have recently been con- sidering setting up Russian departments. Educators realize that whether we have war or peace, a knowledge of Russian language and culture is going to become increasingly important. Then why not start a Russian department here? We are not too familiar with the details of setting up a department, but in this case we feel that the advantages would certainly outweigh the disad- vantages, financial or otherwise. In the first place, as we have pointed out, we would be offering knowledge and training that is greatly needed because of the present state of world affairs. Moreover, the publicity Augsburg would receive by pioneering in this field would be worth thousands of dollars in student recruitment literature. The natural teacher is already here on campus. Let's give him the courses to teach and once again Show that Augsburg can take leadership in circles of higher education. Freshmen Counseling Program THE AUGSBUIG ECHO l Is Purity Criterion? QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN raised about the propriety of Augsburg‘s presenting All My Sons because of the vulgarity of some of the speech” in the play. Because we feel this is part of a larger problem, we would like to brieﬂy discuss just what type of dramas should be presented and seen by Christians. Any serious art, it seems to us, can properly be presented by a Christian school. Even a play with a non-Christian theme, like Jean-Paul Sartre’s Lucifer and the Lord, has something to teach us. even if it is only how our age is thinking. Similarly, it is senseless to ban those plays which show the seamier side of our life and conduct. as long as they are written in an attempt to get at the ultimate meanings of existence. The literature most helpful to Christians is not the pure and pious platitudes found in the fiction of most church publications. What we need to see, study and present are those dramas which, in a serious attempt to look at life, show men as they really are, in their glory and in their filth. Here's one we can’t blame on the printers. Through an unex- plainable lapse on our part in the last issue, we gave Professor Mul- Is Inadequate, Editors‘ note: Views contained in the following article have been expressed by a large number of students, but are not necessarily those of the editors. By Dick Husfloen “Under the counseling system at Augsburg . . . the broad intel- lectual interests of the faculty members are combined with the professional skill and technique of trained counselors to provide counseling at various levels and in many areas of student needs. Personal, social and spiritual problems as well as vocational choice and financial needs are given consideration." So rambles the new Augsburg catalog, grandly eulogizing the “effective counseling 5 y s t e m ’ ' while struggling freshmen, now nearing the completion of their first year still wander in confu- sion as to life goals, spiritual needs, etc. Just what are the value of grades if they do not combine with them adequate counseling to enable the confused mind to focus on goals which would be fitting both personality and ability-wise? And if counseling is given, is it given by inter- ested counselors with an eye to the student's need aubjcct< wise? Some say the answer lies in orientation which supposedly di- Sfudenfs Say rects the freshman towards the desired goals and attitudes. As the catalog states it, “. . students learn about standards and re- quirements of various areas of college life. Methods and habits of study and related techniques are explored." Theoretically, this is fine. Practically, it works out like this. Study of a farcical read- ing skills manual coupled with the following of a study guide which if time allowed would demand a yoga-like constitu- tion with a religious devotion to pure tcdlum, supposedly brings adjustment in the one semester of the course with interest in other courses follow- ing naturally. ‘ ford Q.

' IL ‘,Apr-I1$.II76 | Leaders ‘of Awakening India Face Problems of Education By In Stem Discussm‘ g education in his in- tive India with Anil Jill, a senior, I found an interesting story. India is an ancient land which has been sleeping for hundreds of years. Now it is beginning to , ly and spiritually. with this new movement for o more modern culture. the role of education has become so important that it must be reorganized in order to co—exist with and assist the modern trend. Many problems face India's leaders. For one thing. education until now‘ has not been compul- sory. That is, only those who can pay for education may go to school. This, of course, does not give the poorer people a chance at all. The point is that a compulsory system must be instituted and fi- nanced by the state. thereby open- ing the doors more to students who can and must eventually take their roles in a modern techno- logical society. But this is not all. More money and teachers are needed. With few secondary schools and even fewer colleges in India, school- rooms are overcrowded, teachers are few and "3 little attention m h had by the students. This mum that batta- and more school: will have to he mo. started and provisioned to built a larger influx of student; with ‘ ' unthe“ ' ’ urn-n- ers. , Only then, when the door: I. opened to the children of India. will the schools be Idoquahb staffed.

As things now stand, on b dian college has no social m and takes little interest in the ad- ucation of women. Anil uyl that in adopting the American syn-n. the social aspects of college lilo will also be considered by the ad.- ucstors, so that social insight will be gained by the students as will as that which is gained hour books. Nothing seems to have been overlooked by India in it It- tcmpts to adjust to I rapidly changing world, but the nddult- ment itself will take a low time. jAe Coming 0/ varAet Editors’ note: The following story was discovered in an old trunk by the editors. Because we felt that the island bears many resem- blances to places we have been, we decided to pass it along to our readers. By Johanna de Risus Long ago there was an island entirely surrounded by water. The people of the island were a proud race, and with good reason. The water itself showed that they were special proteges of the gods. Not All Augsburg lab Denizens Are By Gloria Grant The seemingly anti-social be- ings hovering over dead rats and cats and baby pigs, the charred victims of the chemistry depart- ment, are in reality Augsburg’s science students. Approximately 20 percent of the student body are majors and minors in the fields of chemistry, biology, math, and physics. Lucille Pearson, social director of the sophomore class, is major ing in medical technology. l‘Ceil” finds that “qualitative analysis is quite exciting except when the boys try to make me drink their chem samples to ascertain the poisonous content." ' Chet Dyrud, uncommissioned water commissioner of Memorial hall, is a pre-electrical engineer who will finish his last two years at the University of Minnesota. He remarks that “Augsburg has a good course that compares favor- ably with that of the ‘U’; however, over here the student receives more help and encouragement." Perfectly Frank . . . By Frank Bykken This is directed at that unfortunate segment of our population which is addicted to “western mu- sic." An innate sense of tolerance and decency for- bids an attack on personalities and properly defends your right to indulge in such artless folly. But the object of your misguided devotion cannot be too severely criticized. and the most acrimo- nious invective will not suffice. The fact is that sensible persons are driven beyond despair by this insensate compound of cal~ cuiated cacophony.

No outsider would ever comment on this fact, however, for the peapll had long refused to have anything to do with the Greeks. Life on the island was clean and serene.

Next Wednesday Com- mander Edward Peary Stafford, USN, will appear at the lo a.m. convo at Trinity church. On April 22, an evening convo at 8:00 in science auditorium, Neil Douglas, American writer, lecturer and explorer, will show a recent film he made in Russia. Commander Stafford's mater- nal grandfather was Rear-Admir- al Robert E. Peary who discov- ered the North Pole in 1909. Dur- ing his seventeen years in the navy, Commander Stafford has had many exciting and daring as- signments. He spent some time based at Miami, Florida, with a Navy hur- ricane hunting squadron. He and his colleagues had the mission to pin-point and evaluate the trop- ical storms that originate in the middle of the South Atlantic and then track them so that their movements would be known and the coastal areas could be warned. They made their penetrations at altitudes of from three to seven hundred feet in order to avoid the excessive turbulence at high— er levels. Commander Stafford has flown eleven such missions. An avid student of literature, Stafford, who is a 1942 grad of Dartmouth college, won top mon- ey on “The $64,000 Question" TV program in 1957. “Russia: The New Face" is the film that Neil Douglas will pre- sent at the evening convo. This film covers all parts of Russia except Siberia. It shows the slums, factories. collective farms, motion picture studios, athletic clubs, circuses and Russian ballet and opera. The United States State depart ment claims that this film, pro— duced just before the Hungarian clash, is the “last true" picture of Russia because since then ev- erything has been more closely supervised. Douglas spent six weeks travel- ing 10,000 miles in western Rus- sia in preparing the fillm. SPAN Applications Open For '60 SPAN applications for the summer of 1960 are now being ac- cepted by Augsburg‘s SPAN adviser. Eight countries have been se- lected for preliminary selection. These countries are Russia, Denmark, Venezuela, Yugoslavia, Greece, Austria, Lebanon, and Australia. Four of these countries will be selected for the summer tour, de- pending upon the interest the applicants show. All applicants are Crowded Dorms Promote Off Campus Accommodations The ever-increasing student en- rollment of Augsburg has pin- pointed the need of more housing accommodations. A student com- mittee, under the direction of Miss Mortensen, is looking into the possibilities of more off—cam- pus accommodations for upper class students next year. The committee will a p p o i n t teams to inspect all possible off- campus facilities in order to be certain that they meet the criteria for student housing set up by the committee. Members of the com- mittee are David Lystig, Bonnie Martinson, Verna Stokke, and 'Bruce Wéstphal. In order to get loans for con- struction of new dormitories a certain need must be shown. By housing students off campus, this will be accomplished. Miss Mortensen will be attend- ing a meeting on April 17 with representatives from several oth- er colleges to discuss require- ments of off-campus housing. The committee would appre- ciate help from students in find- \ing proper apartments. St. Thomas Hosts NSA Meet The spring regional conference of the national students association (NSA) will be held April 10-12 at St. Thomas college in St. Paul. The program ’will consist of five group meetings to be held si- multaneously. The student body president's conference will be a train- ing session for new student body presidents and prospective candi- dates. A freshman orientation meet- ing will discuss programs for new college students. An upper stu- dent orientation forum will cover the problems involved in the lack of student appreciation of their educational opportunities. Foreign affairs and student pro- grams, a fourth group, will dis- cus ways to run an international campus program and problems in the field of international student relations. 'Finally, the NSA train- ing problem will tell how to make NSA more effective on the cam- pus level. A special feature of this year’s conference will be a banquet hon— oring past regional chairmen. Colleges from Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota will attend the conference. I asked to indicate their first, sec— ond and third choices and the countries drawing the least inter- est will be eliminated. College credit is given for the work done during the summer. Requirements for the scholarship are fairly general with the ob- r jective being that the student will make a good representative of Minnesota colleges in the country visited. Other points which influence the selection committee are lead- ership, scholarship and possibly a knowledge of the language. The language can usually be picked up by special study during the school year before leaving. Students interested in the SPAN scholarships are urged to contact Dr. Carl Chrislock, Augs- burg‘s SPAN adviser, for further information and application forms. 1958 SPANers, Paul Almquist and Bev Tollefson, toured Nor— way. SPANers for 1959 are Bruce Amundsen and Naomi Christen- sen who will visit Japan, and Karen Hanse who will visit Scot- land. Father Shannon Stresses Moral Obligation In Academic Field by George Larson “It is our moral responsibility to cultivate our intellectual life." This was the theme of the ad- dress by the Very Reverend James P. Shannon, president of St. Thomas College, as he spoke at a dinner honoring members and pledgees of the Timia honor society Monday night in the fac- ulty lounge. Father Shannon pointed out the three vocations students have in college, that of saint, citizen, and , student. Choosing to limit his topic to the role of the student, he stressed the duty we have to in- crease our intellectual pursuits. He further stated that many in- stitutions are failing to motivate the better students, placing too much emphasis on training the mediocre students. Mentioning the parable of the three stewards, Father Shannon asked the question whether we are like the poor steward, being satisfied having our talent with- odt developing it. Looking ahead to the great col- lege enrollment of the future, Father Shannon said the small private college must put empha- sis on the quality of training it can give to the better students in- stead of trying to expand and greatly increase enrollment. “We must give up quantity for qual- ity." Ten members from the junior and senior classes were received into the Timia society at a spe- cial chapel program April 6. Ten sophomores and 24 fresh- men were given pledgee status.

For those of us who are bound to measure such programs against the question of what I will get from it, a growing Augsburg is extremely important. It is well to remember that having gradu» ated from Augsburg we are a part of Augsburg as long as we live and Augsburg exists; this is not a matter of choice. If we are grad- uates of a college which at any given time is turning out students of high caliber in all fields we nized as being of little signifi- cance, we might well expect to find an insignificant reception. AT THE SANEE LEVEL of practical thinking we can reason- ably say that if we who are pres- ently students at Augsburg are not enthused about its possibili— ties for the future it is highly doubtful that those outside of the school will be enthused enough to support it. The result will be a school which is not developing, and a school which is not develop- ing in 1959 is in reality going backwards. The graduate from Proposed Student Union will probably be well received wherever_we go.

Curt Anderson is the chairman of the student development council. The advisers are Mr. Donovan Lundeen and Mr. Mark Johnson. Mr. Norman Nielsen and Mr. Harold Kambak also have been of great assistance to the council. The members of the council are subdivided into smaller groups to facilitate the working of their program. They meet once every _ week. the school that is going back- wards will have that many more odds against him in his own bat- tle to go forward. ' W Pages three and four of this issue are written by members of the Student development council as reference material for the Stu- dent development week which begins Monday. Some members of this commit- ‘tee burned the midnight oil with the regular Echo staff members on Monday completing the final details like counting headlines and typing up the final copy for printing. Part of the cost for this issue is being defrayed by funds of the development council. Special Projects Supplement Assessment Program The first major problem con~ fronting the student development council was to find the best possi- ble method for active student participation in the development program, In the future there will be members of the committee who will.have a part in the actual planning of the building. 0N rm: Basis of what other colleges have done, six possible alternatives were suggested to the committee for consideration: an appeal to students for money, students soliciting businesses for funds of building materials, an assessment of the student body, salaried students soliciting from alumni and parents of students, and finally special student proj- ects, e.g. parties, carnivals, and auctions. Though the assessment alterna- tive was considered the very best, the others were not without pos- sibility. Perhaps one of the most promising was the special proj- ects alternative. This would be used in conjunction with the more stable and sure fund rais- ing. assessment plan, and could possibly consist of bake sales.- carnivals, or auctions where stu- dents and faculty could offer their services. THE SOLICl‘l‘NG from busi- nesses for funds and materials also has possibilities. Any of these four me th od 5 just mentioned stand a good chance of being put into use soon as a supplementary program. It is hoped, however, that the direct appeal plan will never have to be used. 0f the six alternatives the committee con- sidered, it was only the assess- ment method that provided the stability deemed necessary for the primary fund raising plan; the others qualified only as sec— ondary plans. Secondly, we might consider our support for the development program as a responsibility which is rightfully ours. At the present time, we are paying only about 63 per cent of the total cost of our education; the remainder is paid by others. This does not in- clude the safrifices that our fath- ers and our grandfathers made in order for Augsburg to be estab- lished and maintained over these many years. Do we owe our sons and daughters nothing? Is it not our responsibility to continue to give in at least the same propor- tion that our fathers and grand- fathers gave'? Truly, for one who takes his responsibilities serious- ly, it should be a pleasure to sup- port a good development program such as ours and thereby repay at least some of our debt to our neighbor and to our fathers and grandfathers who have made it possible for us to be students at Augsburg in 1959. Finally our motivation for sup- porting the Augsburg develop- ment program may go beyond either self-interest or responsi- bility. Christ once said, “Blessed are they who have not seen and yet believe." A special blessing belongs to those who act on the basis of faith. Perhaps the same principle holds true with respect to other kinds of faith. Several students have told me that they really wonder what Augsburg will look Page Three Necessary For Survival like in twenty years. Others have implied more concern over what the total Augsburg will be in twenty years. Yes, I've heard some people say, “I wonder if this old world is going to hold to~ gether for another twenty years." These are things that we don‘t know, things that we . . . “have not seen." It is interesting to spec— ulate, but should we let our spec- ulation obstruct our faith? What a thrill it is to consider what Augsburg could be in twenty years . . . if it receives the proper support. financial and otherwise. This development pro~ gram may not be a mere dream. In fact, the more I consider our heritage, our present leaders and the resources which are available to us the more I am convinced that this development program is not a mere dream. We have the potential to take a back seat to nobody in practically every as- pect of our school. BUT AGAIN. we don't really know. No, we don‘t know. and it's precisely this fact that can make our support of the develop— ment program a thrilling ven- ture. If it should not succeed, then we may rest assured that it shall not have been our lack of support which prevented success. However if it does succeed . . . and from all indications it will suc- ceed . . . then we shall know the thrill of faith having become sight. and we were a part of it! Vote Your Support! You will have the opportunity to vote Friday on this proposed referendum. The student development committee and the student council pro- poses that we as students at Augsburg assess ourselves the amount of $1.50 per semester, to be paid for the building of a student union. This proposal would go into effect this fall (1959). Our gifts would be collected during registration. This assessment, to be carried on until the building is paid for, would make possible a government loan of $400,000 and thus enable us to build our own student union within a much shorter time. I am in favor of the proposal... I am opposed to the above proposal. Students very own.” haron Raivo ‘ separately." initely needs." Pat Walseth Aussies" Lloyd Bakke Karen Egesdal Request AssessmentL We need a student union. Sure, it's in Phase I, but that doesn‘t guarantee that there'll be the funds for it when it‘s time to put it up. How can we bring it closer to us. both in time and money? There is a way. and that’s to make it a student project, if we can have a definite amount of money from the students in the form of an assessment, to be paid at the time of enrollment of each semester, But what do the students think about it? Don Gilberg thinks that those who are incon- venienced by having to go so far for recreation would enjoy having recreational facilities at their disposal on campus, “For I understand that the union will contain these facilities. With student support we can have the union sooner, We can be proud to share in something that is the students‘ “I think that it is good to include it in the tui» tion fees," says Sharon Raivo. “as then the added cost won‘t be felt as much as if you had to pay it Pat Walseth likes the fact ‘that everyone will bc contributing rather than just a few. which would be the case if they had individual drives.” a “The student union is something Augsburg def- Karen Egesdal feels that “Even though some of us may not be here when the union becomes a reality. we can feel that we have prom- ised something valuable and useful for the future Lloyd Bakke says, “To give our social life a real lift on campus and get a number of facilities we really need.

THE AUGSBURG ECHO Development The week of April 13-17 is filled with development news. Students will be told about the development referendum in their religion classes next week. Speakers at these classes will also distribute a brochure telling of the planning of the new Augs- burg. Any questions about the referendum will be answered by- Paul Almquist, Donovan Lun- deen, or Mark Johnson at*two separate discussion groups. The first discussion group will be held at the grill at 7:30 pm. Wednesday, April 15. The second group will meet on Thursday at 3:30 in the student lounge. Voting on the referendum will be held Friday. Friday night, April 17, prom- ises to be one of the most color- full jamborees in the history of Augsburg. If the weather permits, the jamboree will be held outside in back of the gym. This evening will be a climax Thursday, April 9, I959 Week builds Toward Vote to the student development week and kick off a more concrete student participation in Augs- burg’s development program. Color and surprise will be the tone of the evening as the band plays,. the cantorians sing, and the fellows act. A top dancing act, a few special ihinutes by the cam- bo, community singing, and other novelty numbers will round out the evening. All of these activi- ties will lead to a grand an- nouncement on the results of the referendum. Vice-president Norman Nielsen will then give a progress report on development. But that’s not all! There will be food and square dancing—all for free. Union Will Help Build Well ‘Rounded Collegiates ‘ This is the students building, where each Auggie can satisfy his own obsession, be it platter spinning, pottery making, pop— corn, or pool. The revolving “student leader” is inspired by a long line of cheery cells where numberless committees can bring glory to our bureaucratic system. Devoted campus citizens are cloistered Developmenf Makes Today-'5 Dreams Tomorrow's Reality by Norman Nielsen The development program at Augsburg college is the channel through which the dreams and aspirations of the Augsburg college family, its faculty, students. alumni, and friends, are given full ex- pression. The opportunity to give implementation and reality to the plans for the Augsburg of tomorrow have been placed in the hands of the development department. THE DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL The working arm of the development program is the Development Council which is in the process of being created. Its organizational structure, objectives. functions, and procedure have been formulated. The Development Council will be composed of a General Chairman and the chairmen of the associated committees of the council. At this writing, the General Chairman has not been named; however, several outstanding Twin City men have already promised to direct the acti— vities of various committees. The following are some of the committees within the framework of the Development Council: THOUSAND DOLLAR CLUB The Thousand Dollar Club Committee has been functioning for some time. This committee encourages and guides the efforts of Thou- sand Dollar Club members in the effective fullfillment of their ob- jectives: A belief in the enduring cause of Christian higher education; a consultative role with fellow members and the College administra- tion through an annual meeting on the campus: a willingness to sup- port the purposes oi the College in prayer; a maximum gift accord- ing to ability but no less than One Thousand Dollars over a five-year period to the development program: an effort to seek the enrollment of one new member annually. To date, 82 individuals have joined the Thousand Dollar Club, pledging $91,000. Sixty-one of these are alumni. A goal of 125 members by the end of June and 200 members by the end of the year has been set. FOUNDATIONS The Foundations Committee does research and assembles philan- thropic interest, staff personnel, and policy data of foundations which offer potential support to Augsburg. Already your Development de- partment has Sent letters together with the Development brochure to apprOXimately 75 state and national foundations, introducing Augs- burg College to them, placing up—to-date materials in their Augsburg file for future reference. Several encouraging replies have been re- ceived. As you perhaps already know, the Danforth Foundation has given a grant of $7500 to our college library. PLANS AND PROJECTS Closely linked to the Foundations Committee is the Plans and Projects Committee. This committee continually evaluates the Master Plan of Augsburg in terms of its ideology, current academic needs, space requirements, personnel, and equipment. A communique is in the hands of all Augsburg department heads soliciting faculty par- ticipation in the formulation of proposals for foundation gift sup- port. These proposals are to be in the hands of the Development office by July lst, whereupon formal applications for foundation grants will be expedited. CORPORATIONS The Corporations Committee assists in the cultivation and main- tenance of cordial relations between Augsburg College and corpora- tions. Our immediate target is a friend-raising program among Twin City industrial and business firms as a prelude to a fund—raising pro- gram some time this coming fall. Private industry in America is contributing millions of dollars annually to the private and church related college. This philanthropy is an expression of belief in the private college as a major bulwark of the free enterprise system. It also gives verification to the need for the kind of moral and spiritual foundations in our national and busi- ness life to which our church colleges aspire. Approximately 1000 Twin City business firms and executives are now receiving our Augsburg literature. Many congratulaltory replies have been returned, including several very encouraging comments. The following quotation from a letter received by the Development department is a typical example: “I am particularly interested to see your plans for a Social Science Hall and for a Humanities Building. As a business man, I an increasingly impressed with the need for education along these two lines as a help in our daily business life. You may have noticed that in the Harvard Business Review in prac- tically every issue _there is an article—often a lead article—dealing with moral or spiritual values or social values as they relate to our business lives, and I am informed by the editor of the Harvard Busi- ness Review that they have more requests for reprints from this type of article than from any other type of articles which are written for the Review. . . . We are impressed and in great sympathy with your endeavors. . . . If and when the time comes that you need contribu- tions for this work, I hope that our business will warrant being able to help the cause.” FRIENDS The Friends Committee seeks the continuous enlargement of Augsburg‘s circle of friends, especially within the metropolitan com- munity. Among the friends and staunch supporters of Augsburg Col-. lege can 'be counted the churches of the Twin City area. Pastors and leaders of these church bodies have also received the Development brochure and a letter geared to the interest of National Christian College Day and giving them the opportunity to take a fresh look at Augsburg‘s aspirations, hopes, and dreams for tomorrow. CHURCH The Church Committee ,is responsible for conveying to the De- velopment Council the particular concerns and interests of the Lu- theran Free Church in the total destiny of Augsburg. The Forward Phase Committee representing the LFC recently decided to recom- mend to the Annual Conference of the LFC in June: That the Forward Phase Program as the capital expansion fund of the LFC be put on a regular, annual basis; that Augsburg’s allocation for 1960 be set at $82,000; that a full-time solicitor on behalf of Forward Phase be em- ployed for the period June 15, 1959 through January 15, 1960. A reso- lution has also been formulated for the Annual Conference, pledging continued LFC support for the auditorium-gymnasium until it is paid for. Augsburg is also in the process of receiving funds from Forward Phase toward its $300,000 allocation over the period 1957—59. ALUMNI ’ The Alumni Annual Gift Committee endeavors to discover and communicate to the DeveIOpment Council the particular concerns and interests of the alumni and college.auxiliaries in the development pro- gram. With these objectives in view, 25 alumni rallies have been set up on a nationwide basis. The Director of Alumni Relations and the Vice President for Development have been attending these rallies, enlisting the active support of the alumni through the gift-a-month plan. When the rallies have been completed, “Operation Telephone" will give all alumni not yet participating actively in gift-a-month or the living endowment patron plan, the opportunity to support the Augsburg College development program. PARENTS _ The Parents’ Committee assists the College in cultivating and maintaining a mutually beneficial understanding between Augsburg and parents of students. Already plans are being finalized to celebrate Parents’ Night April 14th, giving special honor and recognition to parents of Augsburg students. Plans are also being made to honor parents of Augsburg students at Commencement as parental Alunmi. ASSOCIATES This committee seeks to inform business and professional men such as attorneys, trust officers, bankers, life insuranceunderwriters, and others who serve as counsellors in various forms of estate plan- ning, concerning the ideals and purposes of Augsburg College. One of the leading attorneys of Minneapolis has consented to be chairman of this committee. At the moment, negotiations are under way with five families in the area of wills, annuities, trust fund, and estate planning. _ COMMUNICATIONS The Communications Committee will assist the College through various media of public communications in creating a responsive cli- mate for the enlistment of friends, ambassadors, favorable under- standing, and gifts on behalf of the development program. An out-‘ standing public relations executive has agreed to serve on this im- portant committee as its chairman. away constructing fantastic proj- ects for the public welfare. At the end of the hall looms the office of the student president. This is flanked by such able as- sistants of democracy as free press (The Echo), and the law making chamber, where black- robed delegates sit and make de- CISIOI’IS. Any clubs which prove their vitality can take up operations in private hide-a-ways where their devotees may be seen lurking all hours of the day and night. There is always a warm welcome for the student who wants to be extra curricular. The rumbling in the' cellar is the sound of the ball leaving a baby split. Auggie’s champion bowlers bring home numberless ‘ trophies to add to our prestige in the community. ' Food, of course, is first in the hearts of many countrymen. Those who are fans of this expen- sive diversion manage to get rid of a large quantity of meal books in the new dining hall. Here there is also free atmosphere to boot. But the fans don’t have to put forth even this much effort to pursue their hobby. Vending ma- chines offering anything, even a >dinner date for the weekend, loom around every corner. A book store of immeasurable value is well stocked with con- densations, brief outlines, and simplifications of everything you néed to know. It also has cloth- ing, stuffed animals, soap and , other items no book store should- be without. In the corner of the basement is a barber shop, but it seems the barber takes his vaca- . tion around the end of January each year. The student employment office is always willing and able to fur- nish work for those who seek this time-consuming diversion. The advocates of relaxation, a very popular group on campus, always have a healthy number of members assembled in the spa- cious lounge. Here there are facil- ities for all. There is a giant fire- place at one end for those who like to stare meditatively into the flames. Others who prefer look- ing-out of windows, find an ample number along the side of the room. Those who give this group their full support can be found ‘ sleeping in the big comfortable arm chairs. For neurotics who have a harder time toning down,— a television is provided with com- mercials every ten minutes, guar- anteed to sooth anybody’s nerves. Across the hall< are r ooms where one can hear a phonograph giverout March Militare, or Alvin can play his harmonica, if he likes. Yes, this is the student’s build- ing. Here one can find a quiet place to write a poem, or one can make the announcements on Augsburg's own radio station. If one prefers to bake a cake or listen to a lecture on the life and habits of penguins, one may do . that too. Truly, here you are, mixed and made well adjusted,

Show morePage Six Men-Handling Human behavior and human relations are dependent and affected by one another. We could say that the guidance of human behavior is the art of developing human relations in one or more directions depending upon the result desired. Everyone of us must develop this art and employ it in our activities with other people. Success. in our vocational and social life is greatly dependent upon the degree of pro- ficiency that we attain in this area. It is our thought, that people who are placed in a position where their main purpose is directing or guidinghuman behavior in order to gain a desired result, must be highly proficient in this art. The selection of a person to fill the job must be carefully made since many people because of their personality development are not suited to the job of handling people. And a person that is not suited cannot, no matter how hard he tries, be successful. However, if a mistake is made the person could use a few ideas that have been proven good .in the art of handling human relations. Consistency in all actions is of ut— most importance. Cracking down on a few people and letting others get by with murder, so to speak, is not the answer. Closely related to this is a fair and reasonable attitude. Even if the head man were forced to make an example to establish his policy, a reasonable approach could be used to carry out the plan. In order_ to carry out the policy that has been established one must be firm, but at the same time realize that there is room for a certain amount of horseplay. The last suggestion is to be sincere in all matters con- cerning the people that are worked with because each person is dif- ferent and must be handled differently. There are no hard, pat rules governing human behavior and the relations among people; only a few principles that can be of help. Wlmt Time Is It? Watches and clocks will probably soon be at a premium in the Twin Cities area.‘Un1ess the Minnesota legislature can come up with a suitable solution to the now chaotic daylight-standard time squab- ble, we will be the only state in the union with two time systems in one time zone. After spending entirely too much time on a minor issue for the state, the legislature has come up with exactly nothing. Hennepin and Dakota counties have approved daylight time for themselves if the law under which they are acting is not repealed by the legislature. Other counties in the Twin Cities and Duluth areas would probably follow suit if a law for the entire state is not passed. While we write this no state law has been enacted and nothing has been done about the law that allows the metropolitan areas to de- cide on their own policy for daylight savings time. The chaos which will soon present itself should prove to be very interesting. Travel a few miles out of the cities and suddenly you will lose an hour. As we see it, the only way to make sure what time it is, is to have two watches, one set on daylight time and the other on standard time. Thus it will be easy to know the time in any part of the state providing you know in which county you happen to be.

THE AUGSBURG ECHO Mining Accident Alters Engineer's Life . by Pat Berlin A change in circumstances led to not only a new type career but also to further study for Mr. John Chapel Infegrafioh Builds False Hopes by Jez Johnson Today I went to chapel, hoping that now that spring has come and the new politicians are in office that things would be differ- ent. In the back of my mind I could see the chapel as I had always imagined and hoped it would be—inspiring, quiet—and integrated! It had been promised in the campaign platform, and now that\the administration of 59-60 was in power surely it Kruger, instructor in business ad- ministration this semester at Augsburg. Mr. Kruger had re- ceived his master’s degree in would already be accomplished. I could hardly wait to get to chapel to see democracy achieved, and to see that Augsburg was moving forward making p r o g r e s s in every aspect as I had known it would be. I stopped at the door. Maybe someone would, in the spirit of spring, invite me to sit on the fel- low’s side. I waited while the organ preluded and then slid into the back row and looked around. Seminar For Lutheran Students Provides Impact Of Integration “Other than the talks of the various leaders of the govern- ment and visiting the public buildings of Washington and New ork, the most important part of the trip was meeting and talking with a cross section of the city’s people." This comment made by Dalel Roffers expressed the expe- riences three students received from attending the annual Sem- inar for Lutheran Students in Washington, D. C., from March 22-25. These three were Dick Sletten, Terry Schlink, and Dale Roffers. In Washington, between ses- sions of the Seminar, Dale’s 1948 Buick which made the trip “with- out a wisk of trouble—which is odd" was abandoned in favor of rented bikes which didn't require parking spaces and gas. Wandering around the city on their bikes, the fellows received many impressions on the subject Congress Internship Offers Summer Work Two congressional internships are open for qual- ified students from Minnesota for this summer. Letters of application must be submitted by April 20 to the Minnesota Citizenship clearing house. The DFL student intern will serve in the Wash— ington, DC. office of Senator Hubert Humphrey. The Republican intern will be on the staff of 5th district congressman Walter Judd‘s office in the nation’s capitol. This internship is designed to give “students the chance to avail themselves of this opportunity to receive a first hand education in practical pol- itics.” Each student will work full time for a period of approximately two and one-half months and will be assigned duties which will permit him to develop his particular abilities, be they along the lines of organization, research, writing or public relations. He or she will receive $800, tax free, for his efforts. In addition, provisions for paying the intern’s round-trip transportation expenses to Washington and for providing him with low cost housing are probable. Students may qualify by having demonstrated qualities of leadership in a campus political club or in campus-wide activities. Letters of applica- tion setting forth the student’s qualifications, in- terests, aptitudes and other pertinent information should be forwarded to the Minnesota Citizenship Clearing House, Minnesota, Minneapolis 14. At least three letters of recommendation from professors and others who know the applicant should also be sent di- rectly to this address. 395 Ford Hall, University of of segregation from people di- rectly affected by it. They talked to fishermen on the wharf and “stereo-type cops battered by battles,” and from them realized more fully the segregation prob- lem. Many of the older Negroes the trio talked to, who had lived in the south at one time, seemed more set in their ways and af- fected by the changing tide of segregation and integration. Much of the racial problem in Washington is explained by the fact that Washington is 54% col- ored with this segment of the population located in the central areas 'of the city and the white population commuting to the city for work. After three days in Washington the fellows drove to New York where they attended communion services in a\Lutheran all Negro congregation where the Reverend Iver Sonnack is pastor. Pastor Sonnack is the brother of Paul Sonnack, dean of‘the seminary. Thursday, April 9, I959 mining engineering from the Uni- versity of Minnesota. He was blinded when hit on the head by a piece of mining equipment while working in a Utah mine. This happened in March, 1955 ‘ and in September, 1956 Mr. Kruger returned to study at the _r university. “My family wouldn’t , 1 let me stay home,” he explained. f Before this he spent two months at the Minnesota Society for the Blind for pre-vocational training; Despite his severe handicap, ‘. Mr. Kruger bps received another 5 -. master’s degree, this one in in- - dustrial relations which he re» ceived in 1958. He is currently working towards a PhD. in busi- ness administration. Mr. Kruger’s chief assistant is his wife. She has read to him everything required for his grad- ' uate work. She also reads the test papers Mr. Kruger receives in his industrial management classes at , Augsburg, and records the marks.‘ About his work here, Mr. Krug- er commented, “I am having a fine time and enjoy teaching at Augsburg." Braille notes help blind‘LT ' teacher deliver his lectures in in! dustrial management clmes. I was crushed—the side I was on- - was filled with women and the other side filled with men. Only 'a few brave, married, consider- ate, and related students had broken down the hallowed tradi- tion barrier. Integration of the species had not taken place as, promised by the Amundson-Paul- son ,team. Never again would I build my hopes so high._.Never again would I expect the miracué. lous in a week. ' NOW, with the passage of time, Iihave gotten over much of ,,1 dejection. I can smile again, only when I try to convince my- self that some of these important steps take time, and when I re- member the building. of Rome and such. Now I’m wondering if maybe I might have misunderstood the .. A platform. It merely said integra-' tion in chapel—and I just as- sumed it had meant of the sexes, but perhaps it does have a deeper . V meaning, because after all, Augs- burg is not a matrimonial bureau _- —-someone once said. Perhaps it is a movement on the part of the . pro-mergerers on campus to es- tablish a system whereby ELC’ers must sit by LFC’ers in order to further the cause of unity among church bodies.- I person- ally prefer the first thinking on subject. I have some friends who agree. MAYBE THOUGH, with spring and all, the winning campaigners have let nature do the arranging instead of nominating a commit- tee to look into such personal matters.

Because the Echo staiT feels that they do not have time, they requested that they be exempt from sponsoring it this year. At a former meeting the Student Council voted to take it over. This was done mainly because it was felt that participation would be more cosmopolitan for the school if the Student Council took it over rather than turning it over to someone else. Phyllis (Pee Wee) Baker was chosen to head the program again this year. It was suggested that Dick Myhre be her assistant. Comment was also raised that the program be kept at a high asthetic level. Dr. Christensen visited the meeting with the purpose of presenting the cause of the Japan International Christian University for a part of the coming ﬁve'fold drive to be held immediately after Christmas vacation. Discussion was raised concerning other portions of the ﬁve' fold drive. No settlement has been made as to what will be included in the ﬁve—fold drive. not the proportions that will be allocated. For the interest of you students, Charley Luhn will be chairman again this year. For those who have not nou'ced, the Sverdrup picture in the chapel has been cleaned. The Student Council has voted 320 to help pay for the cleaning the oiircampus committee of the AUGSBURG WOMEN'S CLUB SETS ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY Christmas is coming and right along with it comes the parties and special meetings.

Luther already had several games under their belts and the contest took place on the Luther home ﬂoor. As is usual in opening games of the season the fouls were plenti' ful and proved to be the main reason for Augsburg‘s loss. Lu» ther dropped 32 free throws which accounted for more than half their points. Dave Hagen, BY THE WAY... All Eyes Turn Toward Basketball ...IN WAA By “Myrt” Olson Fighting spirit couldn‘t quite turn the trick as the Auggie PB‘ers bowed out of the volley' ball tournament. The girls dropped two thriller matches in their ﬁnal competition to Victors L.«rry's Lambs and thc Boomerangs. In the game with Larry’s Lambs, Donna Wang, scoring ten consec- utive points, gave her teammates a boost as she virtually stole the show with her tricky serving. When behind 10-4 Donna's spurt brought the Auggies ahead 14-10. Harrier Haller added the ﬁnal point, sending the match into the playoff game. The W.A.A. volleyball crown was worn by the “No Names", who failed to drop a match. The members of this team are Audrey Fraasch, Evonne Emerson, Mirdza Sneberg, Donna Osland, Marlene Ronnigen, and Joyce Stavny. With the ﬁnishing of volleyball in W.A.A. and Park Board both organizations have turned to has ketball. Prospects for the Park Board team are promising, but there is a need for more girls. If you‘re interested, they can use you. 5m 7m 7k PW 3’01 Don Reimer, and Laurie Ballet went out of the game on fouls for Augsburg. Bruce Johnson led the Auggies in scoring with 11 points, followed by Don Reimer's 10 points, Jim Kottom and Dave Hagert With 9 points, and Dick Martinson dropping 7 points. The Eagles will have a chance to avenge this defeat when they play Luther at the Minneapolis Armory December 6th. Another late news item which everyone has been waiting to hear Just came in. The Yo'Yo‘s scored a convincing win in then’ season‘s opener, downing the Dairy Queens 44118. Pee Wee Nyhus hit for 17 points, while Butch Norton hooked in 12 points from his center slot. Nyhus will need more time to round into shape, however, because he did miss one shot during the game. As you know, the Augsburg “A” Club is having it‘s Sportas' bord dinner the 10th of Decem' ber. The food will be "terriﬁc". so let‘s see all you chow hounds purchase a ticket from one of the "A" Club members. Thc price is only $1.00 .md meal tickets will be accepted.

Plil W “But when he was strong his heart was lifted up so that he did corruptly and he transgremed against the Lord his God. and went into the temple of the Lord to burn incense upon the altar of incense." II Chronicles 26zl6. King Utziah had p . He had had such success and had built such a ﬁghting force as well as fortresses that his name had be- come known among many nations. However, his success got the bet’ ter of him and he became proud. He thought that he could go into the temple and do the work of the priest. "When he was strong his heart was lifted up." Pride is the essence of sin. In the relationship of the individual to God it is substituting self for God. Pride is the conceited ges' ture of self-suﬁciency. it is ﬂying into the face of God. But pride cannot exist where there is honest thanksgiving to God. That is why thanksgiving ought not be can- ﬁned to a day in November. If you look to God in sincere and honest thanksgiving for every' thing that He has done, pride can! not aim in you for the things that you have accomplished. If your intelligence, your ability, your talent is given you, why speak as if you had produced those things yourself? Thank God honestly for Jesus His Son. for life. for health and every strength. From the Editor's Dcslt As the war news from Korea seems to be getting worse and worse, I've been thinking lately about the Christian's duty with regard to government and inter' national aﬂ'airs. When we as a Christian college are training young people for Christian leadership in their chor en ﬁelds, have we stressed the im' portance of Christians in govem' ment? Have we, for instance, at' tempted to interest young people in gomg into politics? To run for public oﬁce.’ Whether we realize it or not, many of the decisions which are being made rigs! now in mn- mens are going to dart the livm of our young peqie.

What is your opinion of the Korean situation? Is it a blunder; or is it a necessary move: or both? Two weeks ago George Grim pointed out in his eve- ning news analysis that the Communists were letting the United Nations (mainly US.) army advance on all fronts except one narrow strip in the middle of the country. Mr. Grim pointed out that in the oriental way of ﬁghting they let the enemy advance on all sides and then they spread out and engulf the opposing army from behind.
