Houser, Koiesar, and Connolly Are Honored “Dooley” and “Koley” Honored Third Year Augsburg’s Football Record Is Excellent The coaches' selections for the state all—conference team, as well as the numerous other newspaper selections, have given the “fireside league" much food for discussion. Augsburg and St. Mary‘s were each awarded three positions and (Toncordia, Macalester, Iiamline anti Gustavus were also awarded plat-es oil the “state‘s best," Augsburg’s representatives include "Dooley" iiousergend, Ed. Connolly Vet-enter. and John Kolesar—quartcr- back. This is the third successive year that "Dooley" and "Koley" have been honored with positions on the all~state eleven, a feat which goes far to show the con 'stent high caliber play of these two Auggies. I’rohalrly Ailgshurg's one dissatis- faction with the coaches’ all-state eleven was their neglect of the ability or one who, to us. seems to be the Irest fullback in the conference, bar» ring none.

The varsity tcnm failed to show a great deal of coordination in this game and the passing also was sometimes pour. John Kolesar exhibited the best brand of basketball for Augsburg and also counted nine points in this at‘fair. Thics also performed creditabiy in his ﬁrst college game. working with Kolesar at the guard positions Concordia was out to avenge its last year's defeat in the second game. and with the aid of Reuter. who alone counted thirty—one points, succeeded in nosing out lleiby's second quint.

The head~ wins came in the form of the Alumni basketeers who eked out a slim vic- tory. and the cross-currents were furnished by Concordia of St. Paul who took the second team into camp by the close score of 36 to 34. o With Melby and Cruse at the pumps. however, the ship is in no im- mediate danger of being scuttled. These two practice battles served primarily to give the coaches a line on the players' actions when the go- ing is rough. x Heard after the game: An enthusiastic Concordia rootcri "Didn't he (a Concordia player) make Kolcy look foolish?” Wonder what "foolish" would mean in this case. N. B. Koley only played seven and one-half quarters out of the two games. Concordia rooters probably thought he looked foolish while sitting on the bench. Well, he was out of his element. . Shades of yesterday, How those Alumni could shoot! Leif Harbo got his long distance shooting sights set on the hoop with the opening whistle, and seldom missed thereafter, not to mention Ted Nydahl, Ossie Oudal, and the rest of the old gratis who seemed to be still several years removed from the age of double-strength spectacles and reading glasses. ‘ From the looks of the schedule it would appear that the Auggies’ pres- pective “Bon Voyage" to another bas- ketball championship will be both hard and long. it looks like one of the toughest schedules any Augsburg team ever undertook, t Kolesar and Engebt'etson did vali- ant \vork at the oars in the second encounter and teamed together beauti- fully to count most of Augsburg's points. Had it not been for them, think we, the good old boat would have looked like an 1590 ﬁsh-schooner in Sir Lipton's ahnual Regatta. Yes. there was a ‘cheering‘ wind from the sidelines but. comparatively speaking, it Wouldn't have blown a toy sail-boat across .‘iinne'naha Creek on a mild summer day. “'e wonder if a weekly pep-(est would do any good—" . .\Iadsen, and Midt~ aune, probably showed best.

Show moreHere are Augsburg‘s 1928 “allstate” football men as selected by Conference Connolly—center, Houser—end, and Kolesar quarterback. Gospel Meetings Held Dec. 5-7 Special arrangements have been made for a series of Gospel meetings during this week, Wednesday, Thurs- day, and Friday, Dec. 5——7, beginning each evening at 6:30 P. M. in the Theological Chapel. Christian Olson spoke last evening and the Gospel Quartet sang a num- ber of songs. Mr. Olson chose Col. 3:3, “your life is hid with Christ in God." as his text. He brought out very clearly that a life hid with Christ is hid secretly; it is hid safely: and it is hid for keeping. In conclusion he stated that every life in its rela- tion to God is either saved—hid with Christ in God; or eternally lost—hid d from God. This evening Rev. Karl Ermisch will deliver the message and a Ladies' Quartet will sing. Friday evening, Rev. Anker S. Berg will speak. Everyone is cordially invited to at- tend these meetings. ALAS! Experience is that hair-brush which providence gives us after we have lost our hair. There are many things that come to us too late in life, as, for example, sense; except to those favored few who never get it. “Here- after I‘ll never ignore a toothache,” said the man who had just gotten his ﬁrst pair of false teeth. “From now on my youth shall be well and 110ny spent." says the maiden of forty win- ters. There was once a mouse who found a pool of whiskey on the kitchen ﬂoor. He drank a deep, soul-satisfying draught; and once again. Then he perked up his head and said, “Where's that cat that was chasing me yester- day!” Glee Club Plans Tour To West Coast D w“ (Continued from page 1| As a result of the competitive try— outs the Glee Club has now its full quota of members. lows: First Tenors Lloyd Sand Clayton Morgan Knut Hoversten Karl Dahlager Leroy Rue Second Tenors Kristofer Hagen Roy Quam Lawrence Bueide John Nordberg First Bolus Clarence Opseth Martin Olson Christ Olson Julius Hemunslie Second Bauer George Tangvald Ernest Larson Markus Hailing Martin Quanbeck Oliver Seversoa They are as fol» Class of ’30 Please: Audience With ‘Chileeli’ (Continued from page 1) couraged in his love suit by Waw- anosh. The latter told the younger man that he must make a name for himself if he hoped to gain Nemissa. Tau Wauchee bade farewell to his loved one. She gave him a knife to aid him in battle. He promv ised to return it to her himself if he could, but that if other hands than his own brought it to her, she was to know that he had been killed in'battle. Before Tau Wauchee left, he held council with many, brave warriors. A war dance ensued. An interesting thing about the dance was the grotes- que shadows which passed, one by one, across the wall, as each Indian danced around the camp ﬁre. The tragedy caused by the hero‘s eath was felt by the audience when Nemissa fell unconscious after re- ceiving the bad tidings. But morning came, slowly and beautifully. The sun‘s rays crept in to warm Nemissa. The bird, “Chi- leeli" came and sang a song of com- fort to her. Nemissa seemed to be ﬁlled with new life, and she welcomed Chileeli. Years later, the story was told to the sweet child "Dawn", that Nemissa afterwards died of grief. At her death, the bird Chileeli, also disap- peared. It was thought that the spirit of Tau Wsuchee had come on earth in the form of the bird, to comfort Nemissa. When she needed him no longer, the spirits of both lovers de- parted to the Happy Hunting Groundsi - Other features which helped to make the program a success were the baritone selections by Orville Mehus, vocal solos by Alice Dahl, a musical number by a women‘s trio, and piano selections by Alice Melbye, as well as an Indian impersonation by Elsie Lokken. The cast of characters for “Chileeli” were: Nemissa... , Hazel Oksendahl Tau Wauchee. arren Hanson Wawanosh..- .Clarence Hegg Amatabo Lawrence Hoﬁ . Knut Hoversten Dawn Opseth .Junior boys Medicine Man . . . A social hour was enjoyed by every- one after the program. While lunch was being served. groups of Juniors entertained by singing several old favorite songs. Pro-examination Thoughts The days roll on at a furious pace, Each adding its burden to those be- fore: The student wanders as one in a maze. Lahoring grimly, his work never o’er.

Madame Bo], if she had dignity, lost it all when she became angry. The French couple expected a call from a certain Monsieur Poulot. The material preparations for his visit consisted chieﬂy in the arranging of ﬂowers, the patting of sofa pillows, the straightening of rugs, and the moving of furniture an inch or two either to the right or to the left. But words were not spared by the ex- pectant host and hostess. They fairly ﬂew from mouth to mouth to the ac- companiment of graceful gestures. Almost every form of dramatic ac- tion was called forth in the scenes be- tween husband and wife and the un- loved maid. There was anger, pectancy, fright, amazement, entreaty, wilfulness, humbleness, comedy, and mock tragedy. A: a result of all the French exclamatiuns and heated words, the apparently mute maid, who would scarcely say more than “Non”, won out. Which all goes to prove that it isn't the quantity but the quality, which counts, even where words are ex- concerned, The outstanding feature of both comedies was the action. The ges- tures too, were gracefully made. The ease with which the characters spoke the French language was cuulr mendable. And not only did they speak it, but several members of the club sang it. Lloyd Sand sang in his usual pleas- ing manner, a song entitled “0h, If Flowers Had Eyes." A mixed quar- tet, consisting of Oletta Wold, Lydia Halling, Lloyd Sand, and Martin Quanbeck, also sang the French na- tional hymn, the “Marseillaise”. After the program was given, a dainty lunch was served. Students Take Note! Your Athletlc Ticket ldentl- ﬂee you a: an Augaburg student.

Show moreUltc Augehurg 1Eth PUBLISHED av THE STUDENTS OF AUSBUHG SEMINAHV VOLUME XXX III Large Convocation Points To Future Literary Quarterly Presidents of Organizations To Submit Plans “We are willing to support a liter- ary publication of our own," was the verdict of the convocation of all liter- ary organizations which met Thurs- day evening, Nov. 22, to discuss the feasibility of publishing student liter— ature. Before the business of the evening was taken up a ﬁne program was given, consisting of musical numbers and a few readings. There were songs by a male quartet and by a mixed chorus. Other numbers were comet duets by Clarence Hegg and Harold Davis and a violin solo by Alexander Borrevik. Elsie Lokken and Walter Evans gave readings. The business of the evening was then taken up, and a long discussion followed. Many plans were proposed and considered. The general assembly seemed heartin in favor of the pro- ject. Orville Knutson explained in de- tail how quarterlies were ﬁnanced at other colleges, and suggested how such a magazine might be supported at Augsburg. It was not the purpose of the meet- ing to decide anything deﬁnitely. A committee composed of the presidents of the various societies was chosen to draw up an agreement to be signed by the six literary organizations pledgv ing their support of the enterprise. That agreement will be submitted to each society for approval at its next meeting. After all six have “signed on the dotted line", work on the pub- lication will begin at once. A source of ﬁnancial support has been almost as hard to ﬁnd as the “fountain of youth." The ﬁrst of the many plans contrived called for a stipulated sum from the student fund. This being abandoned as impossible, it is expected that the whole ﬁnancial burden will be carried by the literary organizations All societies will be held responsible for two dollars per member. This sum will be collected from each organization as a whole. which in turn may raise its quote by the sale of subscriptions, or in any way it chooses. Men‘s Debate Squad Begins Work Schedule To Be Announced Later Mr. S. B. Severson. instructor of public speaking, has now selected his men's debate squad and has already spent. considerable time in acquaint» ing his men with the college question. The proposition to be argued this year is: “Resolved. that a substitute for trial by jury should be adopted." This year’s debate squad consists of Harold Davis. Marinette, Wis.; Ar» thur Grimstad, Minneapolis: Holger Hagen. P'eussnt Lake, N. Dak.: Kri- stofer Hagen, Minneapolis; Orville Knutson, Escanaba, Mich.; John Nordberg. Starbuck, Minn; Edwin Olson. Cambridge, Mass, and Roy Qulm. Roland, Iowa. The squad has been meeting re- gularly every week, but the number of meetings will increase as soon as the work begins in real earnest, Ac- cording to Abner Batalden, forensic director, the debate schedule is not complete but will be published as soon as the data and arrangements for clashes have been deﬁnitely ﬁxed, In— dications are that there will be oppor~ tunities for several teams to make de- boting tours. The debates will include both decision and non-decision aﬂairs. AUGSBURG SEMINARY. MINNEAPOLIS.

Class of ’30 Pleases Audience with ‘Chileeli’ Ingenuity Shown in Light- ing Effects The Juniors presented their original play, “Chileeli”, at the “Main” or. the evening of November 30 to a large J. of students and friends. 28, proved to the ‘ the subtle ness of French wit. The ﬁrst play “The Telegraph 0f- ﬁce”, had a cast of three characters. Martin Quanbeck took the part of the busy, somewhat disgusted telegraph agent. The objects of his exaspera— tion happened, at this particular time, to be two feminine characters, who were bright to look at. but very ig- norant of the art of sending tele- grams. Beatrice Helland took the part of Mlle. Marthe Canderolles, while Ka- tharine Sverdrup took the part of Mlle. Lucie Canderolles. Both of the characters appeared very striking in their costumes of old French style. Every gesture made by either one of the two ladies was in keeping with the perky little hats and the stiff, long skirted gowns they wore, or the feminine looking purses dangling at their wrists. To hear them chatter was a pleasure, but to understand this chatter was indeed a delight. Possibly even more humorous was the second one-act comedy presented, which was entitled “Rosalie.” Rosalie was the “stupid, imbecile" maid, who refused to please her mis- tress, Madame 301, or the latter’s husband, without pleasing herself ﬁrst. Hilda Peterson played the role of maid. It would seem that she had the minor part in the play, for she said very little, and, to her mistress's despair, did much less. Yet, the ac- tion seemed to center around her. Jessie Christensen very ably took the part of Madame 801, while Wal- ter Evans was the digniﬁed and “would-be aristocratic" Monsieur Bol. Monsieur Bol's dignity amounted to a dress suit, a neat black mustache, a pair of sophisticated looking spec- (Conlinurd on page 3) Journalists Hear Interesting Lecture Business Part of Paper Discussed The Journalism Class was given an interesting discussion concerning the Minnesota Daily last Tuesday, Nov. 25, during their regular class period. Mr. B. S. Hartwick. business manager, among other things, said: “The Minnesota Daily is a very popular paper. The paper was started through liberal donations and now 15,000 copies are put out daily. It is sixth in size in the state, outside the Twin City papers. “Our income is derived mainly from subscriptions and advertising. Every student is subject to the “Blanket Tax" which requires all students at the University to subscribe for the Daily upon entrance to the college. Then, too. we receive a little income through political campaigns and city promotion schemes. Our advertising comes from three main sources, name- ly, the local, national and classiﬁed advertising. We have about 40% more advertising then any other college paper in the United States.” Next, Mr. Hartwick characterized the average county and small town news paper by saying that they were usually disputing and that the make- up was often poor. As examples of well»organized and popular small town papers he recommended the paper published at Jordan, Minn., and the paper, Murray County Herald, pub- lished at Slayton, Minn. In conclusion Mr. Hartwick gave a brief discussion on the general make- up of a newspaper, stressing the value and importance of cuts Glee Club Plans Tour To West Coast Tryouts Result In Organiza- tion’s Complete Membership Inspired by the possibilities of a trip to the Paciﬁc Coast, the Augs- burg College Glee Club has now com- pleted its membership and has be- gun strenuous preparation for its annual singing tour which will this year be taken in the month of Feb- ruary. In order to make their tour a still greater success than that of previous years, the Glee Club decided to send out an agent to arrange for concerts. This action immediately suggested a tour through the states on the Cana- dian border extending towards the west coast. Mr. Edwin Myhre, who was elcted advance agent by the Glee Club feels conﬁdent that the trip can be made a success, and has taken steps toward arranging for concerts. The question of making this tour was submitted to the faculty for re» commendation. The faculty were en» thusiastic about the plan, but re- turned a recommendation that the trip be postponed until the month of June. Most of the members feel, however, that it will be more diﬁcult to take the trip at that time, so it was de- cided to plan for the tour in February if ﬁnancial diﬂiculties could be over» come. (Continuer on page 3) Rev. and Mrs. Pederson Return From India Missionaries To Be Wel- comed Sunday Rev. and Mrs. M. A. Pederson, mis- sionaries to India, arrived in Min- neapolis on Wednesday morning, Nov. 28, making this their third furlough home. After graduating from Augsburg College in 1893 and the Seminary in 1896, Rev. Pederson served charges in St. Paul and Chicago until 1904 when he set out for the Suntal Mission ﬁeld in India. He has carried on the work of spreading the gospel in that far- oﬂ‘ land for twenty»four years. Rev. and Mrs. B. A. Helland. who are also located in the Santa] Mission ﬁeld, send greetings to their many friends with Rev. Pederson. The Hel- lands have a ﬁne school of three hun- dred boys at Kaerabani. Rev. and Mrs. Pederson had a very interesting trip on their way home. Leaving India by boat they sailed across the Arabian Sea, through the Persian Gulf, and up the Euphrates River, stopping at Ur, the home of Abraham, where Chaldesn excava- tions were being carried on. They next spent some time at the historical cities of Babylon and Bagdad. From Bagdad they traveled ﬁve hundred miles by motor over the desert to Damascus. Then, taking the Bay route, they visited the historic places in Palestine after which they set sail for Venice, Italy. After visiting at Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Paris, and some battleﬁelds, they embarked at Cherbourge, France for New York. They were delayed two days on ac— count of storms and the ﬁrst part of their voyage was very rough as it was during the recent storm period. Sunday evening, Dec. 9. there will be a welcome service at Trinity Church {or Mr. and Mrs. Pederson. The dramatization was entirely ori- ginal, but the plot was adapted from an Indian legend. Emil Fossan represented his class with a few words of welcome. He re» minded his listeners of the fact that the Juniors were not attempting to produce something which was perfect, as the play was not entirely original. The fundamental idea was obtained through an old Indian legend. It was a rather tragic story, but Mr. Fossan suggested that if someone should be in doubt as to what sign of emotion he should display, he might weep if his neighbor wept, or laugh if the oc- casion made others laugh. His talk put everyone at ease and in a moorl‘ for enjoyment. The ingenuity of the members of the class was shown by the skilful lighting effect employed in the pre» Sentation of “Chileeli”. The play seemed to be a production of fantas- tic shadows. The success of the pro» gram lay in this fact. After the audience had “tuned in" on the spirit of the play by listening to two beautiful musical numbers, namely “By the Waters of Minne- tonka" and “Sky Blue Waters", the curtain opened upon an evening scene in the woods. A smouldering bon»ﬁre dimly lit up the setting. The outline of an Indian teepcc could be seen at the left of the stage, while a large hewn tree trunk lay up-stage near the ﬁre. Gliding in upon the quiet scene :ame an Indian warrior, Tau Wau- chee. He gave an interpretatinn of an Indian “blanket dance", to the strains of soft music.

The text's chosen followed up the Federa» (ion Convention theme of "Crusade with Christ", and at the same time were in keeping with the text for Adv vent. Rev. J. 0. Johsnson, assistant pus- tor of St. Olaf church, spoke in thc afternoon on the subject, “Wailing upon the King.” He stressed the two fundamental needs of a crusader; en- thusiasm that burns, and power that comes from God. Assistant County Attorney, Arthur Markve, spoke on the subject, “Be hold the King." He said that those who follow a king must know what kind of a king they are following, and he then explained that. Jesus was the King of Truth and Peace. His way of being King was by serving in4 stead of by being served. At the evening session, Rev. James Gronseth of Rosedale Church de- livered the sermon on the text, “The King Cometh.” He centered his re- marks on the reception that the King will receive in the individual’s heart. It is up to everyone to decide whether he shall be crowned or cruciﬁed. Special music was given at both sessions. A musical program consist- ing of piano solos and selections by the Augsburg Orchestra was given in the intermission between the two ses» UMBER 5 Augsburg and St. Mary’s Share Football Honors Conference Coaches Award Championship Tie At the state conference of coaches held in St. Paul Friday and Saturday, Augsburg and St, .‘lary's were Omciall)‘ awarded a tic (or the 29 football championship.

Augsburg. too, won three out. of four games, but also til-d two others. These ties, however, were disregarded, and so Augsburg gains her first conference football champion- ship. In reviewing Augsburg’s football history, one notes with pleasure and satisfaction the very commendable record that the school's teams have established. Augsburg, during its ﬁrst year in the conference, was con- sidered an easy mark by the other schools, but some of them were doomed to an unpleasant surprise. Augsburg soon set a precedent in making upsets that they still adhere to, and copped fourth place. Last year they carried second place in the ﬁlial standings and this year clipped the climax by tying for ilu- l‘llaliipiuli- ship.

Sveeggen Self-Reliance in Thinking Do we do our own thinking or are we content to let others think for us'.’ If we consider any successful enterprise and take the trouble to inquire into its origin, we will ﬁnd that it originated as an idea in the mind of some one who thought independently, and who believed his idea worth expressing. We all have minds with which to think, but of course thinking —constructive thinking—requires mental effort. We may de- ceive others for a time, into believing that we think, but sooner or later. the real situation must come to light. Day after day we hear the professors urge us to do independent thinking in this ﬁeld and that, until we believe we know the theory, but how about the practice? Do we give real thought to the problems that come before us as a student body, and when measures are presented at the meetings of the Students‘ Society, do we vote accordingly, or does our mental lassitude cause us to “follow the crowd." Do we voice an opinion if it happens to differ from one just ex— pressed, or do we wait until the meeting has adjourned and then express our opinion, when it is too late to be of any value? Every question has two sides, but from observation it would seem that there is only one. Merely the fact that a measure is presented to the Students’ Society does not mean that it must be adopted un- animously whether it is the best for all or not. Would it not be a good thing to vote independently, according to our best judg- ment whether the majority is opposed or not? There may be a possibility that the minority is right. It has been said that character is the sum total of decisions made by an individual. Decisions that are important in life must rest upon independent thinking; and as we build our own charac- ter, so must we do our own thinking. A New Venture A forward step was made when a committee was elected at the recent convocation of the literary societies to draw up plans whereby a literary magazine might be started. Should the plans materialize, a considerable impetus would be given to literary work at Augsburg. When the Echo changed form, it lost some of its literary character. Hence a need was created for some new medium of literary expression. It seems now that out of this need will grow something better than we ever had before. We should not like to see Augsburg become puffed up with pride. The consequences of that might be the same for her as they were for the frog in Aesop’s Fables. Humility, however, is not incompatible with real achievements. We should like to see the students of Augsburg produce a literary magazine that would be a credit to the school. We have overcome our inferiority com- plex in athletics. We are doing so in debating. Why not do the same in writing also? When a literary magazine is published, there will not be lack- ing an incentive to all who are interested in literary work. There will be equal opportunity for all, whether they belong to any so- ciety or not. Contributions will be admitted on the basis of merit alone. A task which is begun with enthusiasm and faith is half ﬁnished. The half that remains, however, is by no means neg- ligible. Anyone who has seriously tried writing knows that nothing worthwhile can ever be accomplished in that line with- out hard work. But when interest and determination are present, even hard work becomes fascinating. Changes Suggested in Staff Promotions Perhaps, if you were at Augsburg last year, you remember the Echo Staff Plan as it was then adopted; more likely you do not. If you wish to refresh your memory on the matter, you will ﬁnd the plan as adopted in the Echo of March 1, 1928. Later developments have proved to those connected with its application that certain changes are necessary. As you will see elsewhere in this issue, some changes have been suggested, and recommended to the student Board of Direc- tors. We can not give a detailed explanation of them here, but the main facts are these: One becomes eligible for the office of editor-in-chief after serving for one year in any capacity on the editorial staff. The same is true with regard to eligibility for business manager on the business staff. The executive board shall constitute a nominating committee for the election of re- porters by the Students' Society. ' . _ The changes in no way affect the system of responsxbillty, but will make the system of promotion less a matter of length of serv- ice than a matter of merit. According to the new method of promotion, it will be possible for any one showing unusual ability to become general manager in his junior year. Since no action has yet been taken on the recommendations, no freshmen have yet been admitted to permanent membership on the staﬁ. However, action has now been promised, and no prospective journalist should be disheartened. Professor Lillehei Publishes New Book Med Leif Erickson paa Vinlamisreiu, or Torleif frn Eikaas, by L. Lille- hei, M. A., professor at Augbsurg Seminary, Minneapolis, Minn., 155 pages, $1.50. Sold by the Lutheran Free Church Pub. Co.. 322 Cedar Ave., M‘ Minn. When one has read this book, he puts it aside with n pleasant feeling of having read not only a good and interesting book, but a ﬁne book. The author takes us back to the time in the history of the Norwegian people when paganism and Chris- tianity strove for the mastery of the hearts of men; and Christianity ad- vanced step by step. The background of the picture shows a considerable knowledge of the history of Norway, which is the result of many years of study. This historical knowledge the author has used as a foundation for a beautiful and altogether thrilling story about “Torleif fra Eikaas” and his eventful life. About Torleif as the main characters. center a number of other persons, all of them of in- terest to the reader, especially, of course, Torleif’s parents and his dear- ly beloved Astrid Okland. The author takes us to the beauti- ful island of Tysnes on the western coast of Norway. This is the author's own birthplace and he is well at home in the traditions of the place which can be traced back thousands of years. The island of Tysnes possesses some of the ﬁnest natural sceneries found on the whole western coast of Nor- way. of this even the reader not locally acquainted will receive a vivid impression by reading the beautiful nature descriptions as well as by look- ing at the many fascinating pictures found in the book. These are actual photographs of many of the places described, and contribute greatly to make the Whole story life-like. Here, among these exquisite natural surroundings, Torleif grows up; here he meets for the ﬁrst time the beauti- ful, high-born Astrid leand. Some of the saga men lived on Tysnes, and we meet them here in the more inti- mate relations of home; these men whom we ﬁnd in history in the tumult of battle and in the king's train. It would bring us too far to give the plot of the story. Suﬂice it to say that Torleif after many vicissitudes came to accompany Leif Erikson on his journey to Vinland; and he be- came a member of the colony in Leifs- dalen in America. But, by and by, he returns to Norway to look for Astrid. How much anxiety and how many disappointments he experienced in this search, and how much Astrid had suffered, belongs to the most thrilling part of the whole story; but the reader will have to ﬁnd out this for himself. And if he has once started, he will not give up before he has found out. The title “Med Leif Erikson paa Vinlandsreise" (With Leif Erikson on his Journey to Vinland) indicates only a smaller part of the contents of the book; and interesting as this part is, many will perhaps ﬁnd other parts still more interesting. It is not only a young man‘s life story which is here presented, it is a full. rich picture of the life in Norway in those days, with glimpses of the life on Iceland, in England and in Vinlund. And the author has really been able to give us a picture which is true to life without having had to resort to all the lewdness and moral pollution which in our day mar so much of what is called belles-leltres both in Norwegian and in other languages. This is of such an importance that it is well worth culling attention to. This book has thus the very great ad— vantage above much that is offered and praised to the slu'es that it safely may be read in a mixed company of respectable people. It is I good book—Ind a ﬁne book, I congratulate the author, and wish him welcome again. Andreas Helland. The Critic Says— The Junior play is regarded by some to be the very best class play given at Augsburg so far this year. From the outset it was very apparent that an Indian element was dominant thruout. Yet, although the play was direct and clear, we wonder whether some who are not so well versed in Indian lore may not have missed the underlying signiﬁcance of some of the incidents in the play. For instance, how many really divined the deeper meaning of Wawanosh’s foresight in withholding his daughter‘s love from Tau-Wachee! His acquaintance with her had probably taught him that daring and enterprising must he be, and also physically ﬁt, who would en< ter the battle of life against such overwhelming odds. We of Augsburg who have even a slight acquaintance with the Indians of Dakota can easily appreciate this fact. A during and far-reaching innova- tion was introduced into the play in that our old-time system of terrest- rial revolution was totally disregard- ed. This became evident when we saw the sun both rise and set in the east. We surmise that the solar en- gineer must have lost his compass. In general the spectators comported themselves admirably well. It was rather disheartening, however, to the critical mind to observe how they reacted to the singing of the chileeli. The somewhat wheezy quality of the bird’s voice, which evoked the mirth of the audience, was in reality one of the many premeditated artiﬁces that made the play absolutely true to life. The explanation is, of course, that the chileeli was singing in an Indian dia- lect. Strange, that an otherwise in» telligent audience should have missed so signiﬁcant and obvious a point! The death of Nemissa was highly appreciated by the spectators. ’Tis a pity that we cannot be treated to such events more often. The authorship of the play is still very much a matter of conjecture. A few signiﬁcant clues would seem to point back to Stratford»On-Avon. How much England will demand for the honor is not yet definitely known. t To prospective father»in—law who is skeptical—“If I can’t make a living in any other way, I am going to be- come rich." Academy Organizes A Chorus This year the Academy has ad- vanced in another field, that of music. Towards the beginning of the school year Mr. Arthur Nash. principal, spoke of this to the students and it was enthusiastically received by all. Quite a number of the Acndemites have come out to the practices and with the spirit shown it is hoped that this organization will prove a suc- cess. Mr. Nash is directing the chorus. There are tentative plans for a con- cert to be given in the spring. The Student Mind Judging from the response that a recent article entitled "Hating" re- ceived. it is evident that someone must be radically wrong in his opinion. It is to uphold my own opinion, as well as those held by the many of students that I reiterate what 1 have already said. And. may 1 also add, that with the closing of this article this matter is closed, as far I am concerned. You will recall that the article con- demned such practices as basing on the grounds that they were apt to lead to dire consequences. You will also recall that the editor of the pa- per upprecinted this view and made expression of it in the editorial column. It seems to me, and I have heard expressions from others holding the same view, that the criticisms last week have shown us in an unmistak- able way how the practice has worked here Ii: school. In the ﬁrst place. one of the critics asks for “the evidence.” Undoubtedly he is not aware of the visit of five men It a private resi- dcnce, about 10:30 P. M. The irate landlady certainly was a witness of that occurrence. As a bit of advice. permit me to suggest that attempts at making friends", no matter how noble, had better be made at some earlier hour of the day, and it might not be entirely amiss to suggest also that one or two come at a time. As has been reputedly stated, no harm was done, but that sort of procedure would soon call down on undesirable criticism on the student body—not only on the sophomore class. To further show how such a system of enforcement has a tendency to be- come uncontrollable, I wish to refer you to the pranks that were played by the upper classmen while the “en- forcement committee" stood by and watched. This very fact, that some of the upper classmen did the “en- forcing” shows that the situation had exceeded the intention of the sopho- more clnss, and the enforcement com- mittee. Such a turn of events not only strengthens my opposition to such methods, but it also puts liabilities on the sophomore class that I think it does not desire. —Alax Bmem’k. Accommodations Made For Off-Campus Girls Ever since off-campus co-eds came to Augsburg they have had no place to hang their hats—no place to call their own on the campus. Always they have had to use West Hall Dor- mitory as their “hung out.” Within the last week there has bEi-l considerable rearranging of rooms in that dormitory. The two rooms that were formerly practice rooms have been made into one large room and this is the “Off-campus" room. The off—campus girls, with Tryphine Nelson as chairman, have organized themselves into committees and are busy making plans for decorating this room. This is indeed an improvement for both the West Hall and the oil'- campus girls. Now each can have their own separate rooms, and West Hallers can have their coﬂ'ee parties undisturbed.

It will also give suggestions to those who wish to write. The material will be composed of short-stories, essays, and poetry. Only the best articles will be chosen. The magssine, which will be seven by nine inches in size, will contain eighteen pngés, and have letters of ten-point type. A large number of copies will be sent out to High Schools in the north- west to represent Augsburg‘s achieve» ment in a literary way. The expense of this practice will not be burden- some. The staff will be composed of an editorrinrchief. a business manager, an assistant business manager, and associate editors. These will be elect» “These Poor, Misguided Sophomores” (Continued from poor?) made a step toward, the realisation of that cause! After considerable searching I have conduct which is alluded to in the ar- ticle on hating. The pathetic picture of relentless, barbarous, and inhuman persecution carried on by a wild, im- placable tribe of heathens—a few up- per classmen—is probably, after all, a product of an overtaxed imagina- tion supplemented, here and there, by misinformation. There is no cause for alarm. The small groups that may gather at Augsburg will not be aﬁected psy- chologically by mob irrationalism as will the larger crowds of universities. But I do not advocate mob hazing, no matter how small the group may be. If a mild form of initiation is to be rganiution must carry ility. That will prevent the matter from being carried to ex- tremes. The presumptuous declara- tion that we cannot draw the line, then, is a good argument misplaced. The article is not only ﬂavored throughout by a generous imagina- tion, but is, in itself, nothing but a compilation of unsupported assertions. The writer may have the same con— ception of proof as a certain athlete. “When a reporter asked, “Who is the best player on your team'.’”, the lad replied, “I am." “Applesauce! You’ve got to show me," rejoined the indig— nant newspaper man. “I don't need no proof," shouted the athlete, “1 ad- mit it." The imagination is a poor source of evidence, and so is misinformation. The sophomore class demands con- crete proof before it will suffer its honor to be dragged through the mire. Both sides have now testiﬁed before the witness stand, let others judge, while we resort to things more valuv able, more pleasant, and more noble than destructive criticism. It would be far better if we would use our ef- forts to stem the tide of what we think is objectionable by an active ﬁght against it, rather than by simple derision. Would it not have been better if the author of “Hazing” had brought his appeal to the sophomore class in— stead of crying out to an unconcerned public through the medium of this paper? But, above all things, he should ﬁrst have secured the facts. —01'villc Knutxell. is the blunder, which this member has not discovered any of the barbarous Gorgeous Tanglegrams This time we shall deal with exag- Being full of the subject you can expect something on order in the accompanying lines.

MINN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER Nl'MHl'Ill 4 AUGGIES TRIM MACS 1N SEASON’S FlNALE Societies Meet To Discuss Quarterly Plan to be Proposed to Students “Augsburg shall have a literary magazine" will be the slogan of the grand get-together. an assembly of all literary organizations. which will meet Thursday evening, Nov. 22 The feasibility of the present plans for a literary publication is to be discussed The chapel will be the scene of much discussion and feasting when ninety students assemble this evening to pass the ﬁnal judgment upon the plans of publishing student literature. The purpose of the meeting is de- scribed by one of the enthusiasts: "Since the passing of the old "Ekko". a news and literary publication, there has been no successful attempt to our courage student literature. (The new Echo is primarily a newspaper). The Writers' Club then, having no outlet for material, planned to pub- lish a booklet of its best work at the end of each year. That plan, although it did not invite contributions from all atudenta, was truly an effort toward literary stimulus. But it has not yet been realised. Writers' Club mem- hers, then, as well as others, continued to bury masterpieces in their private archives. “These burial grounds aﬂ'orded little inspiration ;they had no critics to diﬂ‘erentiate between good and mediocre; they had no suggestions to (in. no lea-an. to teach. The mono- tony of it all smothered the seed of sponnneous writingl The blighted crop failed to reproduce, there was no germ of encouragement, and collegiate literary production faded away until now only the ability is left. The amount of ability, on the contrary, is not decreasing. nor is it at a stand- still; it increases with the passing years and calls for an opportunity to display itself. It is our purpose to answer that call." Most of the ﬁnancial support will come from the student body if it ac- cepts the plan which is to be voted upon within the next week. The pro- posal requires each student to pay a small sum each year toward the main- tenance of two publications. The ﬁrst, after this year, will come off the press shortly before the Christmas holidays, while the other will appear early in May. All students having contributed will receive a copy of each issue with- out additional charges, No advertising will be sold To prevent any conﬂict with the “Echo” this source 0! ﬁnancial support will not be considered.

P Sveeggen OUR MEN OF LETTERS Out of the jumble of events of the Homecoming days, it seems to us that the single item that made the greatest impression upon us was the toast of J. .l. Skurdalsvold at the banquet Saturday evening. To say that we were surprised by the extent and quality of the literary work produced by former Augsburg men, is putting it mildly. Many were names with which we were unfamiliar, but among the names that we recognized as those of eminent men were many whom we had not thought of as products of Augsburg. It left us wondering and a little proud. One of our professors later remarked that in this respect we are too modest for our own good. It is true. There is no reason why we should not know of the accomplishments of our own people. We have a right to be proud of them, and we have a right to expect great things in the future. The achievements of our predecessors will stimulate us to greater achievements. A HOT ARGUMENT The article which appeared in the Student Mind column of our last issue brought immediate response; of which that same column in this issue bears concrete evidence. We are pacific by nature, and, though we have no objection to an argument, we wish that it may be conducted in the best spirit possible, and that no more be made out of it than the issue justiﬁes Above all, we desire that the discussion may not degenerate into a squabble. The initiation ceremonies are over now, and though we do not approve of the pranks that were played, we must admit them to have been harmless. The beneﬁts, which some extol, we must confess that we are not able to see. But after all, nothing much— if we may use that term—was done. There is nothing that rankles in the breast of any freshman. OPPORTUNITIES IN DEBATE It is human nature to enjoy contest and the more equally matched the opponents are, the more fascinating it is. We have just ﬁnished watching our football team clash again and again with teams from other colleges. Our interest has never lagged for a moment as spectators, but anyone who has played in the game will testify that it is far more interesting to be on the ﬁeld than on the sidelines. Debating is a form of contest equally fascinating for the parti- cipant Augsburg again plans an intensive debate program and the training for intercollegiate debates is about to begin. The football coach cannot make a team without material to choose from. neither can the debate coach. Now is the time for students with ability to match their wits against others. Now is the time to be alive to the opportunity to receive training that will develop ability in the ﬁeld of argumentation and debate. This intensive training special debate classes will provide. If you have any talent, don't bury it; use it. “STILL WATERS RUN DEEP” Some activities at school are much more in the public eye than others. Because of their very nature some must receive more publicity. Athletic contests belong to this class. Develop~ ments in debate and music, being less apparent to the eye, are less noticed by the casual observer. Religious activities, espe- cially, are unobtrusive. For it is obvious that those things which take place in your mind are less easily perceived by others than your physical activity. Sometimes, unfortunately, this is taken as an indication of the importance of an activity, and the school is condemned be— cause it seems to over-emphasize the more spectacular things. Some students, even, feel alarmed because there is more noise at a yell rally than at a chapel exercise. and they feel a deep sense of shame that the prayer meetings are not blazoned from the headlines of the Echo. Spiritual things do not require a great deal of blare to keep them alive. Indeed. in such matters blare is unseemly. When it seems necessary to trumpet our spirituality, then it has lost some of its inner power. LAMBDA Lambda Epsilon Phi Accepts Eight Members A dreadful apprehension of some foreboding peril marked the sober countenance: of the eight new mem- bers of the Lambda Epsilon Phi, as STUDENTS’ MIND “Pep” with purpose is desirable. It is this characteristic of the sopho- more: which guided them to initiate the freshmen because of the Iatter's violation of the “green cap" laws It seems that a certain student who expressed his views in the last issue of the Echo on the so-called “hazing”, is the one sophomore who is rather they for ‘ ‘ ‘ rites at West Hall last Thursday evening. Nov. 15. Suﬁce it to uy, their ex- pectations soon materialized in un— looked for procedures to their own consternation and dismay. Unexpected retaliations, however, were made by one pretentious fresh- man, much to the discomfort of the gustatory organs of the president, Abner Batalden. Finally, after every new member had endured the tests and passed the examinations, their minds were at last relieved when the President-welcomed them into the so- ciety. While refreshments were served, Knut Hoversten suddenly be- came a veritable Uncle Josh, demon- strating his wares in great shape. The singing of the Augsburg Song closed the program for the evening. The new members pledged to the Lambda Epsilon Phi are O’Ray Weeks, Olga Huebner, Adolph Win- terr, George Halvorson, Alvin Olson, Laurel - Johnson, Lorense Tangvald, and Berner Dahlen. To the graduate members of the Lambda Epsilon Phi: We wish to extend a cheery greet- ing to all our graduated and absent members. Many times we who are carrying on the tasks which are as- sociated with the “Lambda” recollect the pleasant times we spent together with our fellow-members of years gone by—those were experiences which will linger long in our me- mories. We would now renew that inexpressible feeling of frendship and attachment by extending to you our sincere and happy handshake. After the society put into effect a somewhat different ayabem of admit- tance to membership, eight students were received into our fold. We con< sider all applicants for membership after having had them attend one of our regular meetings. These mem- bers have shown a very enthusiastic and co-operative attitude, so we are anticipating a banner year. Often, I am sure, your thoughts are back at your Alma Matcr and you are living over again some of those de- lightful hours spent in your literary societyiat some banquet, some espe- cially interesting program, some dis- cussion, or some study. Next time you experience such a reﬂection, free yourself from the regular routine and pen us a few suggestions, some of your experiences, or anything that lies heavy upon your brain or heart. It will be as encouraging as nothing else and will give us that needed conﬁ- dence which moral support alone can evoke. —Abner Balalde'n. Sveeggen Lectures to Kappa Gamma Rho The chief features of the Kappa Gamma Rho meeting, Thursday even- ing, November 15, was a lecture by Prof. P. A. Sveeggen. As a prelude to the lecture, on modern poets, Conrad Hagen recited Walt Whitman's poem, “0 Captain. My Captain". The inspiring thoughts of the speaker were centered around such poets as Whitman, Lindsay. Noyes, and Thompson. Prof. Sveeg- gen made his remarks exceedingly in- teresting by reading various selec- tions, some of which were very amus- ing. He expressed the hope that the society would continue its study of the good poets of recent times. This it contemplates doing, especially after being enthused by a lecture of this type. The members and guests then in- formally discumd the above men- tioned poem. after which Orville Knutson introduced to the society the proposed plan of publishing a liter- ary magazine. When refreshments had been served, the group adjourned feeling greatly enriched by the even- inll": PYOKI‘IIIL ’ as to the and intent of his fellow-classmates. In the ﬁrst place, it seems expedient to explain the diﬂerencc between “in- itiation” and hazing." According to Funk and Wagnells, to initiate means to instruct in the rudiments. To haze means to subject to practical jokes. Neither term appears to be extrenm. and the application of either one would scarcely demand severe treat- ments However, it was the well planned objective of the sophomores to instruct the freshmen in the most important thing of all for any “be- ginner”, and that is “a willingness to learn from a superior. Any student of psychology or even of common sense knows that in order to be will- ing to learn, he must first admit that he has sometihng to learn. It was quite evident that those freshmen who would not conform to the reasonable demands of the sophomores belonged in the class of people who think they “know it alll” It would scarcely seem just, to let these poor, misguided freshmen go on through the entire year, and possibly through their whole college life, without attempts, on the part of the upper classmen, of correc- tion. It has been proven by our sires that if gentle reminders will not work. subjection by means of the paddle will bring results. In the second place, it might be well to call to mind the great difference between a large university and Augs- burg. The sophomore who wrote the aforementioned article in the “Student Mind" brought out an extreme ex- ample of mob hazing at Willamette University, which ended in disastrous results. Can Augsburg and the in- itiation proceedings of this fall be compared with a university and its hazing? Does any one, after know- ing the facts, have the narrowness of mind to believe that obliging some freshmen to wash floors or serve time behind a soda fountain, will cause re- sults which may bring ruin to them- selves or to the college in general? Finally, I appeal to the students of Augsburg to uphold their conﬁdence in the sane judgment of any of their school-mates There is no sopho- more who hopes to make Augsburg like any other college or a university. Let Augsburg bc Augsburg. iLydia Hnlling. A Plea For Class Spirit After reading from the “Student's Mind" of the last issue of the Echo, one who is not well acquainted with the conditions at Augsburg College would probably draw the conclusion that a shallow and nonsensical group of “sophomoric” sophomores are lurk- ing about, hrebrand in hand, setting to serious task the unfortunate frosh who are being ﬂedged into the intri- cacies of college life. Peculiar as it may seem, I happen to know of no sophomore, with the exception of last issue's contributor to the “Student’s Mind". who is ready to admit any sense of shame for the initiation rites which have been carried on. Neither have I heard of any “ ‘ “ ‘ about" tending our various class meeting: that the sophomores elected an en- forcement committee on "Green Cap Day" rules, and I am ready to vouch that the committee exercised no meaap ores comparable to the exaggerated accounts found in the last “Student’s Mind”. If the usage of the term "has.- ing" be imperltive, please apply it in the mildest sense possible to Auge- burg. I fail to see any analogy be~ tween $250 damages on teeth replace- ment and ﬁfteen minutes dish wiping behind Fred’s soda counter. No one will refute the phrase “‘Pep' without purpose is 'piﬂe’," when it is placed where it has an ap- plication. As far as purpose is con- cerned, it lies in the word, initiation, itself. , The accusation of reckless expen. ditures of "surplus pep" can, if taken seriously, almost create embittermeut. Whether or not the writer is insinuat- ing that all that the sophomores have been engaged with during the initial months of college is the caretaking of frosh, is beside the point. With no intention of class display. I maintain that the sophomores are as all-around active a class as any. ' Initiation is now over. I can only look upon it as a fun that comel but once in a lifetime to a college student. I regard it as a means whereby I have gained several freshmeii pals. And if there should have been any antag- onism aroused, I can not help but question the sportsmanship of the of- fended one. I have not written to cause any class conspiracy, nor have I intentions of offering apologies for what has been going on. I am sure that the acts of this year's sophomores will cause no dark blot of “barbaric scandalisrn” on the history of Augs- burg. I simply wish to say that, as a sophomore, I am behind the actions of my class, and should there be occa- sion for corrective criticism from any class member, I suggest that the criticism be thrown, not to the “four winds,” but to the class alone. And even then, please remember that there is no proof without facts. How about some better class spirit? ~John J. Nardbrrg. “These Poor, Misguided Sophomores? The author '0: “Hazing”, an ar- ticle which appeared in the last issue of the Echo, has my genuine sym- pathy when he says, “‘Pep’ without purpose is ‘piﬂ'le‘"; but let me add that accusation based an assumption ls “pifi'le”, too. “The inauguration of a hazing committee with uncontrolled powers is certainly a backward step into a dark reign of barbarism," he asserts. It is true that the sophomore class elected not a hazing committee but an enforcement board. That group, I readily admit, had .uncontrolled power; but, on the other hand, it had a well controlled sense of propriety. It did no hazing: it committed no atrocities; incidentally, it had no oc- casion to act. of the unlimited amount of punishment due the per- petrators of the supposed-to-have- happened, scandalous deeds, the en- forcement committee deserves not one iota. ' Has, then, the class fallen into the depths of barbarism'.’ Does the ac» cuser feel justiﬁed in making his at- tacks? He says, “Why not make the sophomore class supreme as an asso- ciation of intelligent people?" But. (Continued on pabe 3) in the proceedings; on the other hand everything has been done openly, and should not be subjected to any such criticism. “And another thing" (as Andy Gump puts it), why direct the criticism against an individual group when this so-called "hazing" commit- tee has been no Mussolini to the num- erous students who have given freely of their services? I hope it was not the purpose of the article to set any sort of precedent towards attaining that intelligence" or “higher society" to which the author had reference. A personal word to the “misguided” class as a whale would have been more inviting indeed than a formal public utterance. I can only suggest here that while we are remembering “the good of Augsburg" we also hear in mind the good of the sophomore class. Now for a closer analysis of the ar- ticle. I am surprised at the state- ment of “the inauguration of a hub ing committee." I feel that it should be a known fact to any fellow classv mate who has had the privilege of at- Only four miuhw number. 0/ the Echo. Who can supply them? Novcmber, 1920.

Perhaps he was try- ‘ ing to imitate Diogenes who took a lantern in daylight to hunt for a wise man. Diogenes must have been pretty vise himself. He realised that to hunt for a wise man was just as futile as to carry a lantern in daylight. o One of our Wise freshmen said that John Dryden was a man of circum- ference and he also attended the Uni- versity of Minnesota. Blow out your glim. Diogenes. your search is ended! . Another of our belligerent and ag- gressive yearlings heard that he must write term papers in college. He im- mediately complied by writing a term- paper a day to his sweetheart. Me~ thinks he endangers himself to a larger form than any term-paper. But I dare not linger too sweetly on the subject of love. Else I may call down the avenging Nemesis of public opinion upon myself as I did once in elder days—Darts and arrows of all sorts were hurled at the writer's per- son. Needless to say none of them were the darts of Cupid altho the cause of the commotion was my elo- quent discourse in favor of the little saint; that was my initial campaign address—my ﬁrst stump-speechgand I was a stumped speaker. I’ll admit I don't know any more about love than Smith does about farm relief; but.I am not such a total eclipse as the freshman who wanted to rcgiricr for pharmacy so that he could help his father on the farm dur» ing vacations.

All Auggies, new and old, and friends are urgently invited to visit Augsburg these days to become better 'acquainted with the school and its activities. ,Augsburg Suffers First Defeat of Season IPlaces Gusties In Scoring Position After two quarters of scoreless playing, the heavy Gustavus gridders :cnmc back in the third to defeat the 1lighting Auggies s to u at the St. 'Pctcr ﬁeld, Saturday, Oct. 27. A fumble, by one of the Auggie , backs turned the tide. What seemed 1 a third successive tie for the Maroon and Grey was turned into a defeat early in the third period when Me chod punted to local on the Auggie nvc yard line, The little halfback as downed in his tracks and on the next play fumbled a pass from center. IA Gustie forward pounced on the lgolden oval one yard from the goal iline. “Red” McLeod, a Gustie hali— lback, then plunged over center plac- ‘ing the ball just across the chalk-line. IThc kick for extra-point failed. , The rest of the game found both Itealns up and down the ﬁeld, both lacking the needed scoring punch. A series of running plays, Proken only now and then by an at- tempted pas, was followed by an ex- change of punts as the teams sea- sawed hack and forth never threaten» ing to score. “Dooley” Houser. the versatile Auggie Captain, out-did his adversary McLeod in the punting bu- siness by an average of ten yards on each attempt. Twice in the ﬁrst half the Swedes fought their way into scoring territory and twice the Maroon line braced tak- ing the ball on downs. The ﬁrst op- portunity came shortly after the game an. A running and passing at- tack brought the ball deep into Aug- gie territory. \Vhat seemed an im» possibility was realized after the fourth down, for the ball was still a yard short of a touchdown. During the last few minutes of the same period the Gustie attack was again smothered with but three yards to go. The credit for the most ﬁrst downs must go to the winners. Except for the third quarter the Gusties, led by the elusive McLeod, gained consist» cntly through the line on cut-back plays, only to lose the ball on downs when they reached the danger zone. "Red" McLeod was the chief ground-gainer of the day. Time and time again he sprinted through the Auggie line, shaking off would-be tacklers for ﬁve, ten, and ﬁfteen yard gains. In hard plunging and crash- ing “Jimmy” Pederson had the edge over the St. Peter men. Madsen, the halfback of greyhound speed, kept the Gustie backs worried by ripping off substantial gains around end, while Kolesar displayed his usual tact at the quarterback position. 0n the line Connolly, Houser, and Batalden caused the opposition plenty of trouble.

Skurdalsvold, who is one of Augsburg’s oldest alumni, will speak at the Homecoming Banquet, Saturday evening. Nov. 9. Mr. Skurdallvold is a man of varied intarests and Augsburg is proud of her claim upon him. He received his 3. A. degree from Augsburg in 1881 and a B. L. at the U. of M. in 1888, after which he studied in the Univer— sity of Berlin from 1889-1890. In 1902 he organized a Night School where he taught mostly English to 1,600 pupils, many of whom came from Norwa . SinCe 1918 he has been proof-reader at the Augsburg Publishing House, and has worked as a reporter, trans- lator, editor, and poet as well. “To Our Roll Heroes," written in the prime of life is beloved of all Norwe- gian people in the Middle West. He is a heavy stockholder and sec- retary of the Fremad Publishing Co. of Eau Claire. He has always been interested in politics, and a consistent temperance advoc , as well as a paciﬁst at all times. Even now though he is well past seventy, his mind is clear and his body vigorous. He spends many of his hours on his truck farm and never tires of explaining and demonstrat- ing his wares. Elia-man‘hohaanotletlife pass by without taking active and Welcome Augsburg extends a heartfelt welcome to graduates, former stu- dents, and friends who gather to- gether for Homecoming Day. We gather about our school and all that it has done and all that it hopes to do. The enthusiasm created by our common apprecia- tion of the ideals will renew loy- alty and seal for our work. All at school unite in wishing you a deeply felt welcome. George Sverdrilp. Well-known Evangelist Speaks to Students Mel Trotter and Homer Hammontree Use Chapel Hour On Thursday, November 1, a very interesting program was presented in chapel. Homer Hammontree and Mel Trotter had charge of the meeting. The former has been a holoist with Billy Sunday. Mel Trotter is a naA tionally known evangelist. These men have been conducting meetings in Minneapolis, and Augsburg was indeed fortunate to have them here. Mr. Trotter used as his topic “Walking with God." How can a person walk with God? In his talk he showed that in order to walk with God we must be in favor of all that which God is in favor of; there must vital part in it. He has lived his life to the utmost and is a true example for Augsburg students who go out henceforth. Debate—Work to Commence with Special Classes Several Veterans Are Back For Debating With several veterans back for the work this year. the Forensic Depart- ment of Augsburg College is antici- pating a prosperous year in debate. Mr. S. B. Severson, instructor of Public Speaking, will again he in charge of the coaching. Mr. Severson is making plans for an intensive de- bate program which differs somewhat from that of previous years. Within two weeks special debate classes will be organized for men and for women. All those who are interested in the work will then have opportunity for instruction, the work to be based on the college questions. During the course numerous inter-class clashes will be held in which each student will be given a chance to show his ability. Mr. Sever-on plans to make his choice of speakers for intercollegiate clashes immediately before the debates, ir- respective of sides. This will mean that each person must have thorough knowledge of both sides of the ques- tion. The question which has been select- ed for discussion by men reads. Resolved. That a substitute for trial by jury should be adopted. The coed- will argue the proposi- he a perfect agreement between God and us, and there must be trust. God trusts us; sh we should be true and faithful to Him. We must have per- fect rhythm and keep in step with Him. There can be no running ahead or lagging behind. Mr. Hammontree also sang twu solos and led the student body in chorus singing. Society Performs Initiation Rites Ten New Members Join Delta Sigma Chi It was a weird and eerie evening hour that Delta Sigma Chi chose for the mysterious ordeal of initiation. without which none enter her fellow- ship. Certainly, strange forces were abroad working mischief everywhere on that sleepless night of October thirty-ﬁrst, and served as certain portents of that which awaited the victims when they should reach Ar» thur Grimstad’s ‘norne, the appointed Ten fearful ex- and place of meeting. pectants arrived in due time found their fear conﬁrmed, when, im- mediately, the blindfold was put on and a dizzy, precarious tour taken up. After a while, sight stored to them, but only to prove anew the truth of thc well-known phrase, “out of the frying-pan, into the ﬁre," for then followed over two hours of gruelling testing. ward then came in the form of a mes- sage of welcome by the society’s was re» Tbei r re- tion. ' ‘. That ' buy— ing of consumption goods should be condemned. No tentative debate schedule has yet been outlined. but it is expected that this year's debate program will be larger than that of last year. The veteran men speakers who are back for dehte this year are Kristo- fer Hagen. Arthur Grimmd, and John Nordberg. The experienced eo— eda include Elsie IAkken, Hazel Ok- the ' ‘ Ar- thur Grimstad. The evening’s pro- gram ended in a lingering conversa- tion under the refreshing stimulus of a light lunch. . The new members of Delta Sigma Chi are Harold Farnesli, Lawrence Hoﬂ, Edwin Olson, Harold Olson, Thomas Spande, Bertha Gjevre. Mil- dred Larson, Tryphine Nelson, Lil: Itndahl. and Marie Ealvo'raon. lian Sydness and Lois Vanatta. Students to Carry on Mission Work Augsburg students have entered on an active campaign of Home Missou- ary work this month with the election of Ed. Myhre, Pearl Aanstad, and Roy Quam as a committee to head the activities. During November evangelistic meetings will be held every Wednes- day evening at the Lutheran Mission and every other Thursday at the Volunteers of America Mission. In order to carry out this program the committee is appealing for stu- dents to volunteer their services as singers and speakers. More gospel quartets will be organized, but solo» ists are also needed. It is hoped that a hearty response will be forthcom- ing so that God’s work will prosper also in this ﬁeld and that many souls will be won for His Kingdom. Rule Violations Cause Frosh Embarrassment Sophomores Display Rigid Enforcement Many who are not on the "inside" in regards to certain strange happen- ings about the campus, wonder why the freshmen are acting so strangely these days. Especially towards night— fall, after the evening meal, do they walk about with bated breath, casting many a furtive backward glance as they go. Some even hurry to their rooms as quickly as possiblé and to all appearances are “out,” as far as callers are concerned. Back of it all lies the recent Green Cap Day, and some neglected rules thereof. And now stern sophomores are exacting retribution by methods dark and devious. But, that's getting ahead of the story. After a little outside impetus two handsome young freshmen Lochin- vars, (a sorrel-top and a half-back, but both romantic) dashed into East Hall and cried to their damsels, “Put on your glad rags: we're going out." And so they went. “Fred's” was their destination. Four pairs of eyes beamed as each of the four received an Augsburg Spe- cial Sundae, served in a special way, but with a large body-guard looming in threatening proximity. Herc is the most embarrassing part of the tale. When Fred saw them leaving without as much as a “thank you" in return for the sundaes, he was obliged to say, “Now, young men, before you go, where is my dollar?" Money? Why, they had no money! It seems that they had in the excite- ment of a ﬁrst date, either forgotten their greenbacks at home, or had ab- sent-mindedly given their change to their numerous chuperones, the so- phomores. So what could the proprietor do, but put the offending parties behind the soda fountain, where they wielded the dish cloths diligently for upwards of two hours. Business became too prosperous at the end of this time due to the curious specimens behind the counter, so the tired boys were allowed to conduct their girl friends home in the hope that Fred, too, might get some rest. Many others strange things have been happening of late. But in order that the freshmen may not be fright- ened away entirely, the worst shall not be related. The frosh have brought this doom upon themselves. When they prac- tice faithfully the rules prescribed by the sophomores, these avow that they will allow them to live in peace, health. and security, but till then they must beware.

M Whitman Studied by Literary Society Poetry Subject of Kappa Gamma Rho Last Thursday evening, Nov, 1, the Kappa Gamma Rho Literary Society took up the study of poetry. After a piano solo by Katherine Sverdrup the society centered its thoughts on Walt Whitman and his poem “When Lilacs Last in the Door- yard Bloom'd." Adeline Rasmussen gave an interesting discussion on Whitman, bringing out the character of the poet and the inspiration that led to the writing of this poem. Er- ling Christiansen read the more im- portant smnsaa of the poem and brought out the main thought in each. The philosohpy of the poem was given by Conrad Hagen, after which there was a general discussion. “When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom‘d" is a beautiful threnody in which Whitman suggests the grief and hope of the nation at the death of Lincoln. Else Michaelson closed the pro- gram by giving a brief sketch of Al- fred Noyes who will be discussed further with Lindsay and Whitman at the next meeting. Improvements Are Made In Library lVarious Departments Add New Books Several hundred new books as well as new periodicals are being added to the library this year. This, together with the new equipment being in- stalled, will be a decided improve- ment, and when the new volumes are received, the Augsburg Library will come up to the standard set by the University of Minnesota. The English and Education Depart- ments will receive the largest number of new volumes, but the departments of History and Social Sciences, as well as the others. will he substanr tially added to. All new books are being classiﬁed according to the standard Dewey De- cimal classiﬁcation. The old volumes will also be re—classiﬁed as soon as time permits the library staff to con- tinue the work. A new card catalog has been purchased to take care of the new catalog. According to the acession record, there should be ap- proximately 14.400 volumes in the library. A vertical file has also been purchased. This will take care of the pamphlet material and make it more readily accessible for reference. Another addition that will be great- ly appreciated is the record that is being made of all the editions of the Echo that have been published by the students of Augsburg. NUMBER O 1 Many Alumni and Friends Expected Program for Two-day Ses- sion is Completed Plans are now complete for a glui- ious Homecoming Nov. 10 and ll, when Augsburg's alumni and friends will return to pay homage in their Alma Mater.

The aspect of this meeting will be of a serious nature and the addresses will sound the challenging noti- to the stun dents. alumni, and friends to hold fast to the ideals of Augsburg. President Ul-dahl will speak ofﬁcially as the re- presentative of the Lutheran Free (‘huri‘h which supports the school At ll :30 o’clock a special luncheon for Augsburg Alumni Teacher’s As- sociatinn. to which all seniors are in Vite-d, has been arranged.

At one o’clock a parade of ﬂoats in which the various classes and socie» ties will participate, will lead the Augsburg waters to the Macalester Athletic Field. Both the Augsburg and the Macalester followers will see their respective teams battle heroic- ally for the Homecoming gridiron victory at 2:30 P. M.

In a few more days Augsburg will celebrate her second Home~ coming. For weeks extensive preparations have been going on in keen anticipation of two eventful days—days when Alumni will meet their classmates in the place where many happy months were spent. The cares of professional school life will be crowded into the background and graduates, friends, and students may give undivided attention to the renewing of old friendships and the forming new ones. Undergraduates will be privileged to be- .come better acquainted with those who are now engaged in var- ious occupations, but who still retain the true Augsburg spiri Alumni, friends, and students made possible the splendid Homecoming a year ago. Let us again unite our efforts, that we may make the Homecoming of ’28 a still greater success. A TIMELY QUESTION From the article appearing in the Student Mind column of this issue of the Echo, the general public might be led to suppose that a merciless hazing program had been carried out by the sophomores As far as we know. such is not the case. Which does not say, however, that the aforementioned article is beside the point. According to the Funk and Wagnalls which we have on our desk, hazing is “severe practical joking involving physical per- sonal injury, or the performance of any humiliating action." Just where an action becomes humiliating may be a little hard to de- termine. It undoubtedly varies with the temperament of the in- dividual performer. Probably the harmless pranks played on the freshmen on the traditional initiation night were humiliating to some. 0n the other hand, the penalties inflicted on those who failed to observe regulations on “Green Cap Day" must have been much more so. Where to begin to call the treatment received by the freshmen hazing is immaterial, but it is obvious that the sophomores have added a little more to the program than was formerly there. They have instituted a "Green Cap Day" and have meted out punishment to those who failed to abide by the rules of the day. Such punishment tends to become severe. The resulting mob feeling may become hard to control. Indeed, this matter of hazing is a greater test of the sopho- mores than of the freshmen. Their discretion and self-control are severely tried. Moreover, they have a large responsibility in changing the nature of the initiation proceedings, for such mat- ters shortly become traditionary. Are they willing to vouch for the discretion of succeeding sophomore classes? a n : Right here and now we would like to take a rap at the oft- repeated statement “Other schools are doing it." It is a very insufficient basis for the recommendation of any activity. In fact, were all schools exactly alike—as so many self-styled boost- ers seem to think that they should lie—Augsburg College, for one, would have no reason for existing. INTELLECTUAL MODESTY We do not believe in “intellectual helplessness" or in being "too modest to believe the multiplication table." Such a mental attitude may inhibit all action and be "the suicide ofgtl'iought." But it is equally fatal to our progress—intellectual, moral, and spiritual to be so cock-sure of our own clear-sightedness that we believe anyone who disagrees with us must of necessity be “a little 0 ." "The greatest self-assurance often has the least justiﬁcation.” A young tyro gets up and discourses conﬁdently on questions that have puzzled philosophers and theologians of all ages. He seems to possess some faculty that enables him to dispense with com- lnon sense and other trammels on thought. Can he embody his point in an apt epigram or a cute anecdote. then, especially, it is established beyond all reasonable doubt. A person such as we have been describing is so blinded by his own eﬂ’ulgence that everything else seems darkness when com< pared with it. Since he is practically the incarnation of truth, there is little left for him to learn in this world. Improvements of any kind are out of the question. “The English Bible. was good enough for Moses, and it is good enough for me." said‘an old lady when someone hinted that a few changes in the King James Version might be desirable. Every good cause is hampered by advmates who have zeal, but who lack the elements of culture and clear thinking. The seeker after light is repelled by the suffocating atmosphere that he often meets. To whom shall he go for guidance? There are many who will overwhelm him with exhortation and castigate him roundly before he has fairly begun to tell his troubles, but there are few who will even try sympathetically to understand him. “Crusade With Christ" Convention Slogan Rev. Johanson Elected President of Federation "“Crbsade With Christ” was the ﬁt- ting slogan which was chosen for the annual convention of the Young ,People’s Federation of the Lutheran Free Church. held October 25—28 at St. Luke’s Church. The convention theme “Suffer Hardship as a Good Soldier of Jesus Christ” was taken from the convention text. This text included the portion found in Second Timothy II, 1 13. The ﬁrst meeting, which was held Thursday evening, opened with an address of welcome by Rev. Claus Morgan to which the president of the Federation, Rev. J. A. Houkom re« sponded. Rev. J. A. Almquist of Pukwana, S. Dak., delivered the open- ing sermon. He used as his subject “Who Follows in His Train." He stressed the fact that only he who can say for himself that Jesus is the Christ, is a child of God. The Friday morning session opened at nine o'clock with a Bible hour and prayer. 'Rev. T. 0. Burntvedt, pastor of the Trinity Church, Minneapolis, gave the introductory sermon on the convention slogan, stressing particu- larly the troubles we encounter in the crusade with Christ in modern times. The afternoon session was led by Rev. Olaf Rogue of I-lenning. Rev. 0. S. Paulson, of La Crossm Wis., and Dr. E. C. Andreassen, former rnis» sionary to China, gave inspiring talks bearing on the theme. The leader of the evening session was Rev. M. E. Helland of Amery, Wis. The topic for discussion was “Crusade with Chringhinst the enemies of Christian Youth." This topic was divided into two phases. The ﬁrst, namely “In the physical, material, and moral ﬁelds" was treat- ed by Mr. Leif Larson, North Side Y. M. C. A., Minneapolis. The other phase was “In the intellectual and spiritual ﬁelds," which was treated by Prof. H. Quanbeck of Oak Grove Seminary, Fargo, N. Dak. The Augsburg Gospel Quartet furnished the two musical numbers of the even- ing. Business Meeting Held Saturday Morning Saturday morning the business meeting of the Federation was called to order by the president. He read his annual report, emphasizing the disinterest that too many of the pas- tors and young people's societies have shown toward the Federation. He pointed out that only nineteen socie- ties have 100% record for donations; 75w have not responded at all. In the last part of his report the presi- dent paid , on the Federation’s behalf, respect to the memories of Profes» sors J. L. Nydahl and J. H. Blegen as well as to the Reverend: E. E. Gynild and E. 0. Larsen for their spiritual services during their life among us. The most interesting and possibly the most important question for dis- cussion which was introduced at the business meeting was the delegate proposition. A resolution recommend- ing an amendment to the constitution which provided that all members of federated societies who should attend the annual conventions should have a right to vote was presented. The original article provided for only a limited number of voting delegates from each society. The resolution was rejected by a vote of 64448. The business of election of oﬁccrs was carried over until the evening. Rev. Sverre Torgerson of Racine, Wis., took charge of the afternoon's program. “Crusade with Christ in the Armor of God” was the subject of the address delivered by Rev. T. C. Thompson, pastor of the Minnehaha Lutheran Church, Minneapolis. He based his remarks on Eph. VI, 13-20 and described the armor of God which a crusader must wear. The armor consists of the girdle of truth, the l the shield of faith, the helmet of salva- tion, the sword of the Spirit, and feet which are shod with the Gospel of Peace. ' Following this session, simultan- eous group conferences for the men and women were held. Under the leadership of Mr. Harold A. Johnson. Minneapolis, the subject “Crusade with Christ, among the Boys” was f.‘ discussed. The Boy Scout Movement was brought up and highly lauded. but the necessity of Christian leaders was held impel-dove. \ Miss Gerda Mortensen was the leader of the young women’s confer- ence. Mia Nora Winther, M. D: of the Sivertaen Clinic spoke on the aub- iect “Crusade with Christ among the Girls." Following this address the girls and some of the mothers took part in an informal discusion of the problems, standards and ideals of Christian womanhood. The Saturday evening session opened with a continuation of the business aﬂ‘airs. The following of- ﬁcers were elected: President, Rev. J. 0. Johanson. as- sistant pastor of St. Olaf Church. Minneapolis; Vice-president, Prof. T. H. Quanbeck, Fargo, N. Dak.; Secre~ tary, Miss Ethel Ingebrigtsen, as- sistant treasurer at Augsburg Col» lege. and Treasurer, Rev. John Peter- son, Alexandria, Minn. The addresses of the evening were given by four speakers who centered their thoughts on the main topic of the convention. “Crusade in Foreign Parts" was discussed by Rev. Ralph Mortensen, Elbow Lake. Rev. M. J. Olson, Duluth, spoke on “Crusade in the Larger Cities." “Crusade in Hos- pitals and Homes" was treated by, Rev. Morgan. Dr. A. Hering of Min- neapolis spoke on “Crusade with Christ among Orphans and Home- less.’ The Augsburg Gospel Quartet again furnished special music for the evening. Sunday morning communion serv- ices were conducted at nine o'clock. There was special music by the St. Luke’s Choir. The sermon “Crusade with Christ, in Worship and Service” was delivered by Rev. H. J. Urdahl, president of the Lutheran Free Church, Fargo, N. Dak. He laid stress on the combination of all other purposes of the crusade into the one main purpose of crusading in worship of and service to God. At this session the convention offering to the Federa- tion treasury was received. “Refornmfiml” lelmn Present"! Sunday The impressive rendition of the sacred cantata, “The Reformation”, to the convcntion's largest audience marked the ninth session of the con- vention. Rev. G. R. Gronseth, Rose- dale, led the session which was at- tended by approximately seven hun- dred people. After Mr. Alexander Borrevik of Augsburg had led in de- votion, the Gospel Quartet rendered two beautiful numbers. Prof. S 0. Sevel‘son, principal of the Franklin Junior High of Minne- apolis, gave an address on “Crusade with Christ—for God, Home, and Country.” The most forceful of all the speaker‘s remarks were those based on the institution which is dear to all, namely, the home. His audi- ence was powerfully reminded of the need of returning to the old fashioned home with the daily family altar and the open Bible. The crowning point of the conven- tion was the rendition of the “Refor- mation Cantata” by the combined choirs of Minneapolis' Free Churches and the choruses of Augsburg, ac- companied by the Augsburg orches- tra. This choir of over 100 voices was assisted by three soloists, Miss Eleanore Jerstad, Norman Barlind- haug, and Ralph Magelssen. The music produced was indeed of a high class and pleasing nature. Not a little credit is due Director H. P. Op- seth, who so capahly directed the choir. The ﬁnal session of the convention was almost as well attended as the afternoon session. After a beautiful solo by Miss Jennie Skurdalsvold, Rev. J. A. Peterson of Alexandria de- livered an address entitled “Crusade with Christ. for Personal Soul Win- ning.” He showed that it was the duty of true Christians to win souls at any Cost. The closing address on “Victory and Glory", given by Rev. J. R. ‘ of “ ‘ ’ acted as a re- minder to the listeners that only through belief on the Lord Jesus Christ could victory and glory be won. With this thought, the eighth annual convention closed. A. Hegre was operated on for ap— pendicitis at the Fairview Hospital on Oct. 27. He is now back on the campus again, as well as can be Ex-l pected. l Student Mind M. Hazing \ “‘Pep' without purpose is pithe'." And it becomes extremely objection- able when supposedly intelligent col. lege students of somewhat mature age skulk about as some of our mis- guided sophomores are doing this year. The inauguration of a hazing committee with uncontrolled powers is certainly a backward step into a dark reign of barbarism. And it eer~ tainly is a surprise that the class should resort to such methods to be- come distinctive. Some freshmen may be too “fresh” and “cocky.” But there are sopho- more: just as much in need of cor rection. Why not haze them too if you have the good of Augsburg so much at heart? Or, if you aim to create class consciousness, why do it on the basis of fear? Why revert to the old barbaric methods and ideals! Has not your previous study and ob— servation given you a vision of a bet- ter society, a better life, a better form of amusement? Why not make the sophomore class supreme as an asso- ciation of intelligent people? Why not surpass in oratory, debate, music, athletics, and scholarship? These ‘nm legitimate avenues for the expendi— ture of surplus "pep". There is no one who believes that these pranks are of evil intent. The writer certainly knows the perpetr» tors too well to make such a mistake. But a careful study of this fad at the Universities of the Paciﬁc Coast States has convinced him and others that hazing is a destructive and un- desirable practice at a school. Class hazing at Willamette Univer- sity cost the sophomore class 3250 to replace three front teeth of one of its members. This fracas the writer himself took part in as a member of the freshman class. At Whitman College twelve men were "hazed" to some liquid which developed to be poison. The result was one man (lead and eleven men ﬁghting for life in a hospital. At both of these schools hazing has been abolished by s un- animous decision. Both schools had tried to control the practice, but where and how could'they draw the line'.’ They found that no person or organization would take the respon- sibility for the actions of a mob of nli uidcd men intent on fun at any prire. Augsburg cannot afford to to- lcrnte such practices either. In its ﬁnal analysis hazing is the expression of a fear complex. It draws its inspiration from fear. and it uses fear to carry out its purpose. Fear of n freshman superiority cer- tainly is a foolish thing for a sopho- more class to harbor, and surely to instil fear in freshmen is not the business of the other class. No, let as rather overcome this fear complex. Let us analyse things fearlessly and find constructive methods by which to exercise our “pep"7at least curb de- structive tendencies. Let us profit by the experiences of other schools in this matter and work. one and all, for an Augsburg which helps and en« courages freshmengespecially those “cocky” ones—to become good mem- bers of a society of thinking indivi- duals.

The festivities open on Saturday morning, Nov. 10, when convocation services will be held in the Augsburg Chapel, President Sverdrup presid— ing. At 12 o‘clock luncheon will be served in the college dining hall to students, alumni, faculty and others. At one o‘clock a parade of ﬂoats and other attractions will lead Augsburg enthusiasts to the Macalester Athle- tic Field where both Augbsurg and Macalester graduates will witness their reapective Alma Mater‘s home~ coming gridiron battle. The two teams will be ready to clash at 2:30 P. M. The Augsburg gridders are serious- ly contemplating another victory, so unless something unforeseen arises, Augsburg graduates, students, and friends will journey merrily back to dear old Augsburg to prepare for the grand banquet which will be held in the dining hall at 6:30 P, M. A pro~ gram of toasts and music will follow. On Sunday, Nov. 11, services will be held in Trinity church, and all students, alumni members, and faculty will march en mama to church for the morning worship. At 4 P.

Plans are being made for the second rendition of the Reformation Cantata under the direc- tion of Prof. Opseth, Following these services there will be an informal res ception in the Augsburg lobby, Augsburg awaits with keen antici- pation the return of former students to her Homecoming celebration. W . G. A. Holds Recognition Services Impressive Ceremonies Welcome New Members To the strains of the beautiful old hymn. “Holy, holy, holy" the new group of women students at Augs- burg, led by Miss Mortensen, formed a processional line and marched solmnly into the candle lighted chapel as a ﬁrst part of the w, s. G. A. Recognition Service program, Oct 17. On either side of the main aisle were girls clothed in white, carrying large glowing candles. A spirit of purity and holiness pre- vailed throughout the service and the program which followed. This con- sisted of a piano solo by Helen Mickles son, a vocal solo by Alice Dahl, a reading by Lydia Hailing, and imper- sonations of the spirits of truth, light, beauty and purity, Each new girl then took an oath, repeating it as Miss Hannah Jerstad dictated The little sister then lit her small candle, from the light of the older sister’s candle. Names of the new members were finally entered on the records, and they received the of- ﬁcial W. S. G. A, pins, Then, funnng a friendship circle by joining hands, the entire assembly sang “Blest be the tie that binds," In addition the Lord's prayer, silent prayers on the part of each indi- vidual. ﬁrst for the sister on the right, then on the left, and than for them- selves, were offered. Again forming a processional line and singing “Holy. holy. holy", the girls marched out of the Chapel and the services were ended. 0 November 10-1 1 College Fledglings Suffer Initiation Sophomores Prove Intere ing Entertainers On Friday evening, October 12, the Sophomores initiated the Freshmen in the main building. The “little green things" received, ﬁrst of all, decora- tive green caps, These were properly placed on that part of the body which, rumor has it, contains a freshman’s brains, and their eyes were blindfold- edl After a zig—zag journey across the campus through mysterious places, each Sophomore taking care of one or two freshmen, everybody marched back to the main building where the Freshmen were deposited in Room number 13 to patiently await develop» ments. The intermission was brief, for al- most immediately the Sophomores again took up their duties as escorts and led the blindfolded Freshmen through the actual process of initia» tion. They were taken down several ﬂights of stairs, but for the conven» ience of the Freshmen. the Sophomore escorts very kindly helped them hold in the “banister”—a rope with some sticky substance on it. At the foot of the stairs, two Sopho- mores greeted their guests very cor- dially with a hearty handshake. But alakthe hearty handshaking culmin- ated in electric shock. Perhaps this was intended to stimu- late tho Freshman or go supra- out a weird voice said, “These are the brains of the last Freshman who passed this way,” while the Fresh- man felt of some well soaked and properly chilled macaroni. Next the Freshmen were conducted into “The Den of the Evil Eye”. The witch living in the den gave each one a generous mouthful of “cats-tongue" fund did it smart? Red pepper does, Early in the evening the Freshmen were taken for a walk but now it was time for an airplane ride, one passen- ger at the time. This proved to be exceedingly thrilling. Perhaps what was the most excitr ing was the trip into the doctor's of- ﬁce. The doctor was very busy that evening because the Freshmen. it seemed, were all ailing. The doctor and his assistants “branded” each pa- tient very effectively with a beautiful “F” to indicate his position among the students, Everyone adjourned to the gymnar sium where several of the Freshmen were called upon to perform stunts and partake in various contests Per haps the most interesting features of the evening was the mock wedding of Marjorie Tesdell, bride, and Lawrence Lillehei, groom. This marked a turning point in the evening’s entertainment: for now the Freshmen were taken to the second (Continued fa page 3) Seven Members Added To “Echo” Reportorial Staff Several new members have been added to the Echo staﬁ in order to fill vacancies caused by the graduation of the Class of '2& New members were elected by the Executive Board and sanctioned by the Student Society, They are: Mathilda Sageng Lydia Hailing John Nordberg .

Mis Mortensen Entertains At Annual “At Home” Musical Numbers Are Enjoyed Miss Gerda Moriensen, dean of Women, was “at home" to all the co- eds, as well as many of the faculty members, alumni, and friends of the college, last Wednesday afternoon from three to ﬁve o'clock. In the re- ceiving line was Miss Mortensen, as- sisted by Hannah .Ierstud and Verna Walstead, Special musical numbers helped to make the afternoon an enjoyable one. Mrs. Luther Arnold played two de» scriptive piano solos by Macdowell; Alice Dahl, accompanied by Alice Melbye sang “A Japanese Love Song", and “Five Little Whiteheads": and Hilda Peterson, accompanied by Glen- dora Dueland, played “Love‘s Greetr ings" as a violin solol These were all beautifully given, and the audience voiced its appreciation by enthusias- tic applause. A dainty luncheon was served by the hostess with a number of the stu- dents assisting Then a pleasant so- cial hour was devoted to making new acquaintances and the renewing of old ones, Miss Mortensen’s annual “at home“ goes far in adding to the feeling of sociability and happiness of college life.

The Delta Sigma Chi, oldest of the societies, is planning to initiate ﬁfr teen new members this fall. as all save ﬁve of the former members were graduates of the class of 11728. The Delta Sigma Chi will devote some of its time to debating as well as drama- tics. Aside from this, the members have not stated their plans for the ensuing weeks. They wish to increase their membership before they come to any decision. The president of the Lambda Epsi- lon Phi, Miss Jessie Christensen, res signed her position in favor of James Kelly, who had just been elected to the oﬁice of vice»president. Abner Batalden was elected to fill the vac— ancy left by Mr. Kelly. Since condi- tions made it inconvenient for Mr. Kelly to hold his new position, he re- signed also. Abner Batalden then automatically became president. Abner Batalden has appointed ﬁve members of the society to act as a program committee for the fall quar» tar. This group is at work ouu'rniug a possible program to followl The Phi Alpha Theta experienced difﬁculties similar to those of the Lambda Epsilon Phi. The president, Miss Hannah Jerstad resigned her position. Mr. Lewis Berge was elected to fill this vacancy. As the vice- president, Miss Marie Lemohn, did not return to Augsburg this year, the vacancy made by her absence was filled by Mi. Jerstad. Committees are working on grams to be had for this quarter. The Kappa Gamma Rho was the first society to become organized this fall. The vacancy for the position as treasurer made by Miss Nora Stavc's absence was ﬁlled by Mr. Clifford Sather. A regular meeting has all- l'eady been held, when “The Gold Bug" by Edgar A. Poe was discussed. The members of the Kappa Gamma Rho have not decided what form of literature is to be studied at their meetings. They have considered poetry, but may become absorbed in the short story. The literary societies are setting their standards high this year. and are looking forward to a prosperous winter’s work. nrr» Round Table Contem- plates Publication 0f Quarterly An Augsburg literary quarterly, ranking with the best in the state, will result if present plans of the Round Table society materialize. Members of this organization be- lieve there is sufﬁcient talent in the group and the student body at large to warrant the publication of such a magazine, Orville Knutsun, president of the Round Table society, has investigated ﬁnancial problems attendant to the production of a college quarterly and feels that the project can be financed entirely on a subscription basis.

P. A. Sveoggcn Faculty Adviser Your Pen, Alumnus! Sprcad out over the northwestern states and, more sparsely. nvcr practically the entire world is a class of people known as Augsburg alumni. We have a peculiar interest in these people {or a two-fold reason—because they once were what we are now, and because we shall be some time numbered among them. Now and again we are pleasantly surprised by some of them who lll‘Up in on us over the week end, but these are necessarily few. The greater part of them are too far away to pay Augsburg fre- quent visits. Yet we have reason to believe that they, too, are interested in us. We should like. therefore, to have a word from them in the Echo now and then. We feel that it would be exceedingly in< ieresting to Augsburg students to know what the Augsburg al- umni are doing. Is it too much to ask an occasional epistle from those, who, when they were here, wrote reams of stuff for the instructors' perusal? At our Homecoming, which is soon here, we shall renew acquaintances with those who are able to be with us. But we want to remain in touch with our alumni. Let the Echo be the medium. Apply the Measurement Any activity is evaluated by the extent to which it answers the question, Does it pay? The business man makes his invest- ment on the basis of this measurement. The politician applies the test to a proposed course of action. 'The social woi'ker gives 1houghtful consideration to the question before engaging in a new phase of social work. The same question arises at the beginning of the school year in regard to extra—curricular activities. Does it pay to be a mem- l ber of a literary society, the Writers’ Club, the Press Club, the Echo Stall, a musical organization? When due consideration has been given to all sides, the arguments pro and con weighed thoughtfully we believe the answer will be, It does pay. These organizations oﬁ'er opportunities for a development of varied talents, opportunity to learn to work in harmony with others, opportunity to contribute to school life as well as to re- (cive greater beneﬁts. Genuine pleasure in doing proﬁtable work for self and for Augsburg may be derived from the extracurri- cular activities. They are indeed an invaluable part of school life which help ﬁt the student to cope with problems he must meet in later years. Just A Smile A genuine smile or pleasant expression is the reﬂection of the inward attitude toward life. As a person feels, so he appears. How often we see a person and feel sorry for him, while we say to ourselves, “His must be a bleak and dreary life.” But how did we come to that conclusion? By his appearance, expressions, and actions he makes himself known unto others. A smile has a retroactive power. In all his dealings with others, a man beneﬁts by the possession of an optimistic attitude. Those with whom he comes in contact come under the magnetic power of his pleasing personality. They respond so much more quickly and better to his thoughts and plans than otherwise. In short, a smile stimulates interest. But it has not such a one-sided effect. A pleasant disposition is more contagious than most people realize. Have you ever experienced how dimcult it is for your features to resist returning a genuine smile‘.7 The happy person is the one, then, who not only makes life worth while for himself but also for all those he meets. Of what value is life to us unless we can make this world a better place in which to live both for ourselves and our neighbors? “Smile and the world smiles with you."

Show moreAugsburg Wins First Football Victory Over St. Olaf Passes Play Important Part In Victory “Pete” Runs 55 Yards For Second Score Displaying a dash and ﬁre that would not be denied, Augsburg’s ﬁghting gridders bowled over their ﬁrst Conference foe at Northﬁeld, Sept. 30 by a 13—0 score. The vic— tory was doubly sweet to Augsburg in that their ancient rivals, the St. Olaf Vikings. were their opponents. Con Eklund's men used the for- ward pass to good advantage, and both Auggie touchdowns, resulted therefrom. Kolesar's toss to Houser in the second quarter accounted for the ﬁrst points and “Pete’s” 55 yard dash in the ﬁnal frame after he had leaped high in the air to intercept an Almli heave, accounted for the others. ADOOIES’ SPEED TELLs Although heavily outweighed, Augs- burg's speed and ﬁght proved to) much for their heavier opponents overcome. Time after time a god jerscyed Ole appeared to be away for a score only to have a speeding Aug- gie ﬁash forth and cut him down. Contrasted to the hard running visitors. St. Olaf, with the exception of Almli and “Red” Peterson. ap- peared slow and sluggish. Almli shone at returning punts while “Red” Peterson was excelled in line plung» ing only by Willmar’s new “thunder- bolt.” “Jimmy” Pederson. During the ﬁrst half the giants of )Ianitou Heights were completely out— played. Augsburg, however, did not exhibit the scoring punch until Mad- sen entered the fray in the second quarter. AUGGIES SCORE With the ball on St. Olaf's 47 yard line, Madsen replaced his fellow townsman. Thies. “Matty” made a yard on his ﬁrst effort, and the Kole- sar-Connolly pass combination added “Pete” made ﬁrst down on the 31 yard marker. On the next play Madsen made two yards. Then a pass to the Parker’s Prairie ﬂash made 9 more. The same play found Madsen going to the 14 yard line. Here Pederson crashed through for 5 yards. Madsen was good for 6 yard in two tries and Kolesar com- pleted the march by passing to Hou- ser for a touchdown. Then the Aug- gie captain calmly booted the extra point, making the score. Augsburg T—St. Olaf 0. SECOND HALF St. Olaf laid down a perfect bar- rage of passes as the third period got under way. But vigilant Auggies \vere ever alert to stop any scoring play and only a few of Almli’s heaves went true. Then, with only 2 minutes to play, Pete speared one in the mid— dle of the ﬁeld and was away for the last score. A feature of this run was Kolesar’s ﬁne blocking of a St. Olaf tackler just as he was about to bring down the Augsburg fullback. CAPTAIN HOUSER KICKS WELL Worthy of note in Augsburg’s ﬁrst gridiron victory over St. Olaf was llouser’s ﬁne kicking. One of his ef- forts carried 65 yards and his aver- age was better than 40. Kolesar’s generalship was ﬁne, his ball carry— ing superb. “Pete’s” number 36 might easily having been taken for Joest- ing’s famous 33, for the Willmar boy hit the line viciously and tackled hard. Thies and Bronson, who came with Coach Crose from Parker’s Prairie, started at the halves and turned in a classy performance. Ernest Madsen stamped himself as the fastest man on the Viking ﬁeld. Once he broke away for a 60 yard run, only to have the play called back when a lineman was off side. The entire line showed a ﬁght and drive superior to that of last year’s team. Captain Obermeyer played well for St. Olaf. eight more. SUMMARY Augsburg—— St. Olaf— Connolly _______ ...l.e. Obermeyer (Capt) Engebrigtson . l.e. , .

Augsburg Eleven Downs Luther In Ragged Battle Pederson and Kolesar Star In Backﬁeld In what proved to be a tedious, long- drawn out game, the Auggies de- feated Phalen Luther of St. Paul, 8 —0 on South High ﬁeld last Satur- day. Although displaying occasional Ilashes of their old form, the ﬁght so characteristic of the Auggies was con— spicious by its absence. The game was enlivened by a few long dashes that seemed ticketed for touchdowns, but the numerous penalties, frequent fumbles and warm weather had its eii‘ect in slowing up the game. Koley ran into tough luck in the last part of the ﬁrst quarter when, after having smashed through the line for about 8 yards, he fell across the goal and dropped the ball, a Phalen-Luther man recovering for a safety. The ball had been brought into scoring distance from the Auggies 30 yard line by some ﬁne line plunging by Kolesar, Pederson and Thies. Kole- sar began the march down the ﬁeld with 8 yards off tackle. Pete was stopped on the next play, but Koley made 2 for ﬁrst down. Thies made it ﬁrst down again with about 20 yards oi’f tackle. Pete then followed with two successive smashes netting 10 yards, and Thies followed with an- other dash for 8 yards. Pete put the ball on the 10 yard line with another of his plunges when time was called. Pete was stopped on the next play and Kolesar broke through but drop- ped the ball as he fell over the line, the above mentioned safety resulting. The play see-sawed back and forth for the remainder of that quarter and part of the second when the Auggies got a break in the form of a punt that went all hay-wire for the Lutherans, landing on the Lutheran’s own 45 yard line. Long plunges and oﬁltackle plays by Kolesar, Pederson and Thies carried the ball to the 8 yard line where Kolesar broke through for the only touchdown of the game. Dooley’s perfect kick was disallowed because one of the Auggies was off-side. Reif and Schlacty were easily the outstanding players for the St. Paul outﬁt, but C. Lang and Stubenval did well on the line. Pederson and Kole- sar made most of the gains for the Auggies, Thies being next in effec- tiveness. Madsen, as in the St. Olaf game, broke away for a spectacular run of 50 yards for a touchdown, but again his effort went for naught when the play was recalled. Zosel made himself felt too when he came in. Erdahl and Engebrigtson did com- mendable work on the line, and Houser performed in his usual style. Pete showed his versatality by doing the punting in the third and fourth quarters, the kicks having good dis- tance. The Auggies’ victory was more de- cisive than the score would indicate. They made eleven ﬁrst downs to Phalen-Luther's 5 for nearly three times the yardage. The passing, though, was not up to standard, but one pass being completed for each team. The Auggies made eight at- tempts and Phalen-Luther, ﬁve. Lang, of the Lutherans, intercepted two Auggie passes. The line-ups. Augsburg Pos Phalcn-Luthcr Connelly . ..... ,, L.E., , Bilk Erdahl ,.

Football Chatter Augsburg this year promises to be stiff competition for anyone who aspi- res to become the state football cham- pions. They have already been vic- torious twice and have high hopes of scalping the remainder of their op- ponents. C Twenty men answered coach Eck- lund’s call for a pre-school training camp which lasted two weeks. Most of last year’s letter-men were back and many new candidates were mak- ing their bids for positions. During this session it became very evident that there would be keen competition for the backﬁeld positions. Since then many linemen have returned to strengthen the forward wall. ‘ Although they were successful in downing the most promising team the Oles have produced for years, the Auggies have ﬁve other formidable conference elevens to conquer. These include St. Thomas, Concordia, Gus- tavus Adolphus, Macalester, and St. Johns. St. Thomas, Hamline, St. Marys, and Augsburg are as yet un- defeated by any conference teams. . Phalen-Luther, a non-conference team, was last Saturday made to taste defeat at the hands of the Auggies. It was a game in which ragged, in- consistent playing was dominating. With all that kind of play out of their system, they are now making the best of preparations for the coming Satur- day’s duel with the Cadets. ¥ Dr. Ecklund and “Choppy” Crose are putting forth their every effort to make the season the most successful yet. They believe this year Augsburg has the best chance since its entrance into this sport of winning the little gold footballs. # "Con" Ecklund’s brother, Ray, has been assisting the coaching staff in developing the linemen. He was chosen as all-American end when he played on the Minnesota team, and knows the linemen’s duties as well as any man. ‘ The St. Thomas game to be played in St. Paul is going to be one of the most thrilling contests in conference circles this season. The Tommies have a powerful football team, but the Auggies maintain that they also have a great team in the making. The team that ﬁghts the harder and has the better support will have a favorable chance of winning. ALBERT HOLMES Groceries We solicit your patronage Only from and ﬁrIt-ciau good. kept on hand 2207 RIVERSIDE AVENUE Basketball Captain Not Returning Luther Sletten Joins St. Olaf Choir Luther Sletten, Captain-elect of the 1929 basketball squad, has decided that it is more to his advantage to graduate as a member of a world- famous choir than to ﬁnish his col- lege days at the fore of a leading state basketball team. He has there- fore made St. Olaf College of North- field, Minn., his new school home. “Luke” is well known by all Auggie followers and enthusiasts for his ath- letic prowess. For two years he has been a member of the basketball team. In 1926-’27 he played guard on the state championship team. He retained his old position on the quintet of 1927-’28, which was one of the state’s three leading basketball organizations. At the end of that basketball season he was chosen as guard on the second all-state team. Besides participating in athletics, “Luke” has been a member of the Augsburg Glee Club. He has been one of the bass section of this organi- zation for the past three years. He has decided that such a vocation as lies in the reach of a songster offers a brighter future than any athletic profession. During the last summer “Luke” sang with a male quartet. He has travelled with the Ridpath Chautaqua Company. While with this group of singers he journeyed through several states. He says, “I had a very pleas- ant and enjoyable trip." Mr. Sletten has already been ac- cepted into membership in the sing- ing organization of Dr. F. Melius Christiansen. This choir makes a tour of the United States every year and is contemplating a trip to Europe in 1930. Conference Standings W. L. Pct.

'Prof. H. N. Hendrickson spoke on fthe “Educational Opportunities in the Cities.” He told of the many ,iibr'aries, museums, and other places interest to the student. Psychology tests were conducted in _, .e Chapel after luncheon by Miss 1,, uth Atkins. 'ié Short talks by faculty members were begun after a few minutes of giinbermission. Mr. Gilbert Johnson ex- gplained “How to Study and Take ;.Notes,” while Prof. L. J.

Prayer Meetlngs There are undoubtedly some who are as yet unfamiliar With some phases of life at Augsburg. Especially for those who do not eat in the Dlnlng Hall, and so do not hear the announcements, is this notice intended: _ Prayer meetings are held in all the dormitories Mon- days and Fridays at 6 :30. On Wednesday at 6:30 the stu- dents assemble for a union prayer meeting in the Theolo- g1ca1 Lecture room. “Round Table” Outlines Intensive Work Narrative Essay and Short Story to be Studied On Wednesday evening, October 3, the members of the “Round Table” convened in East Hall for the ﬁrst meeting of the year. Although several of the charter members had not as yet returned to school, the group felt the necessity of starting early due to the large amount of work intended to be accomplished in the ensuing year. The meeting was carried on in a very informal manner in that each member freely expressed his ideas as to what type of material, after thorough study, would be both inter- After a short discussion, it was agreed that a brief survey in the ﬁeld of the short story would be of great value. In review- ing this type of literature, the prin- ciples involved, as well as the tech- nique of writing such stories Would be emphasized. The work is to be made as practical as possible, with the end in view of writing a short story for one’s personal benefit or perhaps for some form of literary publication. Al- though inﬁnite time might be spent in studying short stories, the mem- bers decided that the narrative essay should also. be given consideration. With such a course outlined for the term, the organization feels that its efforts will be duly rewarded by a somewhat wider knowledge of the ﬁne art of literature. Orchestra Work Is Resumed Practice Discloses Many Promising Candidates In order to fall in line with the many organizations that are making an early bid for prominence during the coming year, Miss Gaarde called together last year's orchestra mem- bEI‘S and all new candidates for a brief meeting on Friday afternoon. Prospects for the coming year were discussed, and time of practice was definitely set. There seems to be a wealth of material among the new students. Especially is this true in the case of cornets, violins, and sax- ophones. I The old members who are back for orchestra work this year are A. Bor- revik, Hilda Pederson, Berner Dahlen, Violins; Clarence Lund and Clarence Hegg, Cornets; Marie Dahlhaug, Sax- ophone; John Nordberg, Baritone. Several veterans are expected to join, which will make a large nucleus around which Miss Gaarde may build up a competent organization. - The Augsburg College Orchestra is one of the organizations which has be- come almost indispensable to the school, and under Miss Gaarde’s cap- able instruction there are great hopes lfor another successful year. School Spirit Prominent at Party Annual ‘Get-Together’ Gives Promise of Cooperation Enthused with an unusual degree of college spirit, by virtue of the foot- ball victory over St. Olaf College some hours previous, old and new stu- dents, alumni members, and faculty of Augsburg gathered for their an- nual “Get-Acquainted Party” in the “Main” on Saturday evening, Septem— ber 29. After all present had been given the proper insignia whereby they could be recognized and encouraged to self- introduction, the Main lobby was the scene of hearty greetings and warm handshaking. A program had been arranged in the college chapel. Arthur Grimstad, president of the student body, pre- sided. After a few words of welcome, he called on Miss Wilson for a vocal solo who, accompanisd by Miss Mor- tensen, pleased the audience. Presi- dent Sverdrup was introduced and responded with an expression of com— mendation upon the spirit shown. He desired that someone who had been fortunate enough to witness the foot- ball battle tell the others about it. Assistant Coach Crose was called on and in a few interesting words re- called some of the high spots of the game. He stressed the point that it is not weight and brawn that deter- mines everything, but “what is above the shoulders” as well. Luella Foss and Gertrude Vogt added to the en- joyment of the program by playing a piano duet. Refreshments followed the program after which the party ended. No doubt there remains in the minds of everyone present a feeling of a better mutual understanding at Augsburg, which is the ﬁrst vital step towards cooperation and success. The annual “Get-Together” marks the ﬁrst endeavor of Augsburg’s so- cial director, 'Elsie Lokken. She, as well as all the others who helped make the party a success, is to be commended on her work. Results of Class Elections Two class elections have already been held. The results are as fol- lows: Senior: President, Art Erdahl; Vice-president, Glendora Dueland; Secretary, Lewis Berge; Treasurer, Emil Ellingson; Sergeant at Arms, Wilhelm Everson. Sophomore: President, Norman Anderson; Vice-president, John Nord- berg; Secretary, Else Michaelson; Treasurer, Orville Knutson. Attention Frosh! The green caps, which tradition decrees that all Freshmen should wear, have arrived. In order that the fledglings might have ample )pportunity to display their in- feriority, as well as, for their own personal beneﬁt, to make more pleasant and convenient the task of becoming acquainted with the upperciassmen and business men, the suggestion is offered that all tyros complete their fall wardrobe by investing in a suitable head- dress at once. The caps are de- corated with a button, which every Freshman is expected to use at the request of a Senior. So when you hear the command “button”, don’t forget your place, but heed the re- quest. It may save you future em- barrassment. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1928 Calendar Candle Light Service Oct. Aca. Sr. Organization Oct. Augsb. vs. St. Thomas Oct. Freshman Initiation ,, Oct.

On October 1 he called for candidates for both the Glee Club and the Choral Society. Several of the old members are back and many new ones came to try out. Graduation last spring took many of the yodlers. Mand of them are now out in the various high schools in the state directing their own musical or- ganizations. Thirteen of the old mem- bers are back in the Glee Club and there are fourteen new ones trying out. There are also thirteen old mem- bers in the Choral Society and eleven new girls trying out. This shows that there will be strong competition in both organizations. Something quite different marked the beginning of practise this year. Prof. Opseth combined the two organi- zations and now they are practicing as a choir. Together with choir mem- bers from the Lutheran churches in Minneapolis they will give a cantata at St. Luke’s church, October 26. To give a cantata with only three weeks practice is quite an undertak- ing and Prof. Opseth should be con- gratulated in starting this with such a short time in which to work. Watch for the announcement later of this cantata and then come to St. Luke’s and hear the Joint Augsburg Choir with choir members of all the Lutheran churches in Minneapolis. w. s. 6.173511% First Meeting of Year Rules and Regulations Stressed to Self Governors Thursday evening, Sept. 27, the members of the W. S. G. A. held tbcl. ﬁrst meeting of the :c‘wul year at East Hall. This was for the purpose of introduc'n'; the new girls. to the or“ ganization and giving all the women students the opportunity of becoming acquainted with one another. The oﬂicers who were elected at ~ meeting held late last spring assumu‘ their ofﬁces. Hannah Jerstad being the new President, Marie Halvorson Vice-president, and Lucille Nilsen, Treausrer. Miss Mortensen welcomed the new members into the organization. and spoke of the nature and importance of the W. S. G. A., enlarging upon its rules, regulations, standings, and ideals. At a meeting held Thursday after- noon, Oct. 4, the election of oﬁicers was completed. Members of the Re- ligious and Social Committees were elected and Marie Johnson was elect- ed Secretary. The W. S. G. A. is now completely organized, and the girls are de- termined to begin working immedi- ately to make this year stand out as one of great achievement and success. NUMBER 1 AUGSBURG OFACQLT—Y Nine Members Added to Staff Several Departments Enlarged School opened at Augsburg this year with one of the largest faculties in its existence. More teachers have been added in several departments, permitting them to be enlarged. This together with the vacancies caused by resignations brings the list of new faculty members to eight, besides one member who returned from a leave of absence. The departments affected are: Theology: Symbolics. College: Education, U. S. history, physics, athletics, sociology, womens’ physical education, and German. Library: New librarian. Academy: General Science Norse. Rev. Karl Ermisch has been en- gaged as Professor of Symbolics in the theological department. He re- ceived his early training in Germany and is a graduate of the Wartburg Seminary, Dubuque, Iowa and the Chicago Theological Seminary, May- wood, 11]. In 1927 he received the de- gree of Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Minnesota. He is a former professor of Bible and Ger- man at the Wartburg Normal College, Waverly, Iowa, and was pastor of a church in St. Paul, 1914-21. At pre- sent he is teaching German at the University. Rev. Ermisch has spe- cialized in Symbolics. Miss Gerda Mortenscn, the dean of women, returned a short time ago from a nine months leave of absence spent at Columbia University. Dur- ing this time she completed her gradu- ate work toward the M. A. degree, securing a major in the course, Ad- visers of Women and Girls, in the col- lege of Education and a minor in his- tory. Miss Mortensen will take charge of the U. S. History depart- ment and during the winter quarter will give a course in Minne ta His- tory. Miss Ruth Atkins, a former mis- sionary to Asia, is the new head of the department of Education. She re- ceived her B. A. from Hamline Uni- versity and her M. A. from the Uni- versity of Minnesota. It will be or interest to know that Miss Atkins has been Principal of a Girls’ Training School, Malacca, British Malaya, Asia, being sent out under the Metho- dist Board. She has also taught Nor- mal Training in the Winthrop High School, Minn. The past two years she has been doing graduate work in the Institute of Child Welfare at the University of Minnesota and is at present a Ph. D. candidate. Mr. Harold Tangjerd, a graduate »tudcnt in the ﬁeld of physics at the University, has been engaged as in- :tructor of physics. Before taking up graduate work he taught in the high (Continued on page 3) New Song Book Ready for Use A book of school songs, “Maroon and Gray" has been compiled. It will greatly facilitate practise in commu- nity singing if every student will se- cure a copy. Copies may be procured at the hall desk.

Professor Hendrickson has offered to train the students in “harmonious cheering” if they will show their en- thusiasm by turning out for practise. and Rev.

A. Sveeggen An Invitation to Work Elsewhere in this paper there is a notice whose purpose it is to see that every freshman is duly supplied with his green cap and faithfully instructed in the virtue of humility. Whether this will add to the sum total of freshman happiness or even aid materially in their acclimation and orientation, depends largely upon the spirit in which the freshmen enter into the sport. Good sportsmanship is not conﬁned to our athletics, but is as great, if not as prominent, a virtue in the class room. We do not desire, however, that freshmen shall judge the upper class attitude toward them by the green cap question. The attitude of the other classes may be best expressed by their in- vitation to the freshmen to work and play together with them. That constitutes their welcome. The freshman class will be judged by the manner in which they respond to that invitation. Rightly looked at, an invitation to work is not an unpleasant thing. Work is necessary and desirable, and under pleasant con- ditions with companions who have the spirit of mutual under- standing and camaraderie, it is one of the ﬁnest things in the world. Your Day If we read the signs correctly, busy days are coming—days in which numerous duties will conﬂict and push each other as1de. Day after day something that you want to do and ought to do w111 be crowded out. It is yours to decide what it shall be. things are important; some are less so and some are more. Many In such busy seasons there is a tendency, as Prof. Melby suggested at a recent prayer meeting, to crowd out the most important of all the precious moments of prayer and meditation. The cynic—if such there be who reads these lines—will sneer at the word “precious.” not be so easily crowded out. If they were, he will say, they would Yet so is man constituted that he yields time and again to the demands that are immediate and neglects those things whose results lie “over the hill.”‘ At best man is a short-sighted creature, and when he acts Without re- Ilection the results are often disastrous. _ You who really prize these moments see to it that other mat— ters do not exclude them from your day. As Cushman says, “You must seek God in the morning, If you want Him through the day.” M rits of Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance (Editorial note: Below is the essay which won ﬁrst prize in the Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance essay contest last spring. It’s author, Emil Fos- san is back to school this year.) Nearly every person today realizes the importance of taking out life in- surance. But the question presents itself: In what company or society shall he place his insurance? No two organizations are exactly alike. Clear- ly not all are of the highest merit. Which one is likely to serve him best? A thoughtful study of this question will amply reward itself. Before one can ascertain the worth of a life-insurance organization, he must know what virtues distinguish the best practices. The ﬁrst merit to look for is security. Insurance with- out it may not fulﬁll its purpose and is therefore almost worthless. Failure to put safety ﬁrst has brought bitter disappointment to many. But successful life insurance re- quires also that the rates charged, be- sides being high enough to insure safety, shall be fair to all, so that no one pays more than his just share of the total cost. Furthermore, in order that insurance may become available to a larger number of people, it should be as inexpensive as possible. An or- ganization that combines economy and fairness with absolute safety deserves full conﬁdence. What has Lutheran Brotherhood to offer one who contemplates a life- insurance policy? Does it possoss the merits he ought to look for? Or is it inferior to some other organization? If so, he should have nothing to do with it, for he has a right to demand the very best. If, however, it satisﬁes the strictest requirements, he ought to seek membership in the society at once. In the all-important matter of se- curity, how does Lutheran Brother- hood stand? A company or society is secure when it is able to pay all just claims in full. Under normal condi- tions an organization is solvent if it provides a fund which according to the mortality table is large enough to - meet all claims. However, wars and epidemics may raise the actual death- rate above that which the mortality table shows; or ﬁnancial panics may impair the reserve funds. If the de- ﬁciency cannot be covered, insolvency is inevitable in an old-line company. And insolvency means loss and disap- pointment to every policyholder. Lutheran Brotherhood, however, has nothing to fear from an emerg- ency. All the safeguards of the old- line companies are found in its legal reserve and its surplus fund. But be- sides these it has a safety resource which they lack. In emergencies its members can be assessed equitable amounts which will enable the society to meet all obligations. This assures absolute safety. Lutheran Brother- hood cannot become insolvent. No one need fear that the assess- ment privilege will be abused in Luth- eran Brotherhood as it was under the old fraternal plans. The rates (which can never be changed) provide an in- surance fund which normally is ade- quate. And this fund can be used only for paying beneﬁts. Extra pay- ments can be required only when ex- cess mortality or investment losses— which any organization is exposed to —have impaired the reserve. Under normal conditions, therefore, an assessment would be impossible as well as unnecessary. Assessments can be levied only for a good purpose, at times when insolvency would other- wise be unavoidable. Being now satisﬁed that Lutheran Brotherhood cannot be surpassed in security, let us see whether its plans are fair to all members. In an in- surance group not all should pay the same rates, for the probability of death is greater among the older mem- bers. The weakness of assessment in- surance is its lack of proper distinc- tion between the different ages. Luth- eran Brotherhood, however, has ad- opted the scientiﬁc level-premium plan, which has this overwhelming ad- vantage that no one pays for more than the risk he himself creates. The expenses of Lutheran Brotherhood, furthermore, are apportioned by the most equitable methods that actuaries have been able to devise. Fairness and security should never be sacriﬁced for false economy. True economy, however, can and should be practiced. It consists in a proper use of mortality and investment savings. Lutheran Brotherhood applies all these to the beneﬁt of its members. There are no stockholders to pay, and not a penny can be squandered in ex- travagant management. Whatever is not retained as surplus goes back to the policyholders in dividends. Thus the actual cost becomes considerably less than would be indicated by the rates, which themselves are reason- ably low. But the ultimate cost of insurance depends not only on the application, but also on the amount of the sav- ings. In Lutheran Brotherhood they are unusually large due to the favor- " able conditions under which the so- ciety operates. As a fraternal it pays no taxes on premiums. Because of its excellent location it can make in- vestments that are both safe and pro- ﬁtable. During.1926 the net interest rate was 5.5 per cent. But perhaps the greatest saving has been eﬁected by the remarkably low mortality that Lutheran Brother- hood has experienced. From 1919 to 1926 inclusive the average death-rate was only 18.55 per cent of thatindi- cated by the American Experience Table of Mortality. Few, if any, other organizations have been so fortunate. Because of their high standard of liv- ing Lutherans make excellent insur- ance risks. Therefore the death-rate in Lutheran Brotherhood will continue low even when the society grows older. In view of the many advantages that it enjoys, it is not surprising that Lutheran Brotherhood has a surplus which proportionately is almost twice as great as the largest among old- line companies. Neither is it strange that it can, without endangering its own stability, give privileges which many contracts do not contain. No restrictions are made as to travel 01‘ military service. A policy may be surrendered for its resarve value at any time without charge. Premium loans to the full amount of the reserve are automatically granted. In fact, there is no real privilege not found in Lutheran Brotherhood contracts. A fast-growing membership is at— testing the merits of Lutheran Brotherhood insurance. No one has been, and no one ever will be, disap- pointed. For, built on the soundest plans and favored by the most auspi- cious conditions, Lutheran Brother- hood leaves nothing to be desired. EMIL FOSSAN. Quite a number of Augsburg men spent their summer vacation on the vast spaces of Montana. Each of them have several experiences which he likes relate to his fellow students, —and some have experiences that come to light only bcause of the “orneriness” of some of their pals. For instance, one of the men, conspi- cuous for his stature and complexion, upon receiving an invitation to milk the cows, and an overall to wear while so engaged, saw a baseball bat in the corner which stimulated him to ask, “Have you any gloves?” The kind farmer, realizing that the youth came from the city and had spent some time in the navy, replied, “We don’t use gloves when we milk cows.” This same young man, on another occasion, while driving along enjoy- ing the beautiful Montana scenery, saw a jack rabbit bounding along ahead of the car. When his ﬁrst feel- ing of curiosity and astonishment had partially subsided, he said, “Gee, look at the mule!” As Miss Mortensen Sees New York (Continued from page 1) solid granite. Four or ﬁve stories are constructed below the ground level to give strength to the structures. The busy thoroughfares of the downtown sections, whose million- peopled streets, the rushing trains of the subway which are scheduled for every minute and a quarter, the elevated automobile roads, and ﬁnally the aeroplane paths of the air, over which more than an occasional air- plane courses daily, are all so alive with action, that it made Miss Mor- tensen feel as though she had returned to quiet country life when she arrived at Minneapolis. The business section of the city has been carefully planned. Wall Street consists of the broker markets. The chief department stores are situated together in one section. The best theatres are located on another avenue. The Roxy Theatre is con- ceded to be one of the ﬁnest modern theatres in the world. The hotels are located on an avenue opposite the theaters. The Manger Hotel, which is near the Roxy Theatre, is one of the best hotels of the city. New York has many beautiful churches and cathedrals. The Epis- copalians claim most of the older churches. The Cathedral of St. John the Divine is one of the most artistic and largest in size. It began to be constructed in the year of 1892. An immense tower is being constructed now, which will take a number of years work before completed. It greatly resembles the well known Rheims Cathedral. Miss Mortensen enjoyed New York, but she enjoyed Columbia University even more. The strongest impression she had of the school was the cosmo- politan air and the utter democracy of it all. It seemed that the whole world were attending one large uni- versity. .- . A hall called Rockefeller’s “Inter— national House” was built especially for 'the students of foreign nationali-‘ ties. It houses ﬁve hundred students. Twenty ﬁve per cent of this number are American born, who act as hosts and hostesses. There are thirty-eight nationalities represented at this place. It is situated on a beautiful site, in view of the Hudson River. Miss Mor- tensen herself lived at Johnson Hall, a twelve storied dormitory for grad- uate and professional women. There are very few clear days in New York, but on rare occasions, the haze from the Hudson seems to rise. At such times, from the roof of the hall, the palisades up the Hudson can be seen. To the northeast one can scan the sky=scraper district. New Yer-k is, a, fascinating city. but after all Minneapolis is a ﬁne city to which to return. Chester Sorkness has resumed work in the academy. It Several alumni of last year, Merrol Larson, Fritjof Christensen, Olaf Fossan, Ruth Hanson, and Dagny Jacobsen have been visiting their Alma Mater the past week. iii Rev. H. A. B. Winther of Hawley, Minn., visited the campus for a few days. at Pep meetings have been started. Come all and do your stuff. # Emil Fossan is another ﬁne scholar added to the student body. Student Mind That Augsburg has a Museum which is in need of specimens I do not deny; that relies and objects of espe- cial interest have been and now are ac- cepted with gratitude I do not doubt: —but, I must be convinced before I’ll believe that any one Augsburg ofﬁciai is advocating that our band costumes and instruments, purchased some years ago, should be donated to the Museum for want of a more conspi. cuous storing-place. A band, you may say, is a desirable organization in any school. True, it is that; but it has a much greater l value than such a faint-hearted ad- jective can convey. It is a essential to a progressive college as healthy food is to a growing infant. A band has its important place to ﬁll in a15- most every extracurricular activity, whether it be social or athletic. We all admit it adds to the life and splendor of any social activity to have an able band or large orchestra ten.- der its assistance in the program. But; have you as an individual ever ex- perienced what a pep organization oﬁ such a nature means to the members- of an athletic team? Where the coach’s ability to charge the individual with excitement and; animation ends, there pep music be-i' gins its service. A football team, 31-5 though fresh and full of .life at the: beginning of a game, responds re-f markably to the musical strains of,ai march. The rhythm gives each player? just a little more snap, just a more enthusiasm, and makes each}? one’s blood ﬂow a little more rapidlyj‘ in his veins. That, however, is onlyi the effect music makes upon the indi-i- vidual when he would otherwise doing very nearly his best. Does it? help the players noticeably at any,” other time? i Every person taking part in air I ., av athletic contest, requiring such stren-i" . uous participation as football, has aim critical low-vitality period. Then isffii the time that music receives a animous acclaim from the team. They once more clench their ﬁsts, set their? jaws ﬁrmly and grit their teeth, and. ., experience a rare thrill as their heartsg begin once more to palpitate at a; furious rate. They are rejuvenated.» Now each can say to himself, "My op4'. l‘ ponent is just as weary as I; I’ll showz? him I have just a'little more grit andFT endurance than he!" I r in all sincerity, “Do you believe a .: Pep Band is a necessary organiza— tion at Augsburg this year?” Where, among the students, is that :1 spirit of cooperation we have have 7 heard so highly touted? The instru ‘ ments and apparel are patiently wait- , ,1 ing to be of service; the football team needs the advertisement the athletic . ‘ teams give.
