The group also attended a Spanish play presented at the Theater in the Round. A highlight of the year's activities was the visit of an authentic Spanish dancer to one of the Spanish Club's meetings.

L. Weum, R. Nelson. R. Carlson, B. Mestemacher, E. Nixon, B. Hilleque, G. Bruins, D. Bergtson. R. Swanson. Augsburg’s basketball season can be summed up best by a lack of consistency. Throughout the season the team was plagued by the inability to put together two halves of good basketball. A well—played half would often be followed with a poorly played second half. These cold streaks often proved damaging to the Auggie victory aspirations. Two of the highlights of the season came against Bethel and St. Thomas. Although the game with Bethel was non—conference, the Aug- gies put together two halves of fast—break basketball and rolled up 113 points. In one of the final games of the season, Augsburg beat St. Thomas and knocked them out of any contention for the title. The Auggie cagers went in to the St. Thomas game as the under- dog without a chance to win. However, as coach Ernie Anderson had said all season, if the Auggies could put two good halves of basketball together, they would be tough to beat. They did this during the St. Thomas game and scored the biggest upset of the season. The cagers were led by captain Ron Nelson, as he scored consistently throughout the season. Ron joined the elite few who have scored over a thousand points in their basketball career at Augsburg. The Auggies will l6$e only one out of this year's 12 lettermen so with this valuable experience, the Augsburg basketball hopes for next year are promising.

Wrestling The Auggie matmen produced one of the best wres- tling seasons in Augsburg history with eleven wins and three defeats. Although the team had one conference loss and placed fourth in both the Carleton and Luther tournaments, Coach Pfeffer was able to mold the team together to win the 1968 MIAC championship held at Si Melby Hall. Augsburg managed to score in all ten of the weight divisions with five champions, two thirds and three fourth places. Junior captain Daryl Miller led the squad to victory by posting an undefeated season and winning his third straight MlAC title. Other champions besides Miller were junior Rick Snow, sophomore Dave Innes, and freshmen Larry Stewart and Mike Good. The Auggie's five champions were then flown to Ala- mosa, Colorado. to participate in the NAIA tourna- mentwherethey placed thirtieth. Augsburg was also the host and winner of a unique type of tournament in which only takedowns and pins were scored. This was the first Takedown Tournament of its type in this area. With four outstanding fresh- men, one sophomore, four juniors, and only one se- nior on the 1968 championship team, Coach Ron Pfef- fer looks forward to a successful season next year.

There was a snowball fight in Murphy Square, broomball games between societies. an exciting day of skiing at Mt. Frontenac. Several snow sculptures were built, even though snow condi- tions were quite slushy sculpturing. One of the high- lights of the Snow Days celebration was the crowning of the royalty. After all ballots were counted, Pam Bjorklund and Wayne Carlson were crowned Queen and King. Entertainment at the Coronation was provided bythe Singing Nones and the faculty who staged their faculty frolics, illustrating how Augsburg students appear to their teachers. The Snow Days dance offered a more romantic evening for the Augs— burg campus. A true winter atmosphere prevailed as couples were driven from one dance to another on a horse—drawn sleigh. As all events are remembered. everyone will agree that “Up-Up—And-Away,” Snow Days 1968, was a great success. Master of Ceremonies Brad Board dons a ski sweater in the spirit of Snow Days.
