Among his famous works are “The Age of Anxle " and "For the Time Being.” THE AUGSIURG ECHO Page Three Poet Defines Modern Hero by George Larson “The Hero in Modern Poetry" was presented by W. H. Auden last Wednesday in convocation. Auden is the English-American poet who occupies the Oxford un- iversity chair of poetry. This is the highest honor a poet may re- ceive. Auden was also present at a noon luncheon held in his honor in the faculty lounge. The lunch- eon was attended by both faculty and students. Auden stated that a shift in the idea of the hero, “a man everyone else wants to be like, or ought to be like,“ has taken place. The classical epic hero was he» roic only in his public deeds; the modern poet’s hero can only be heroic in the most private recess- es of his inner life. Examples from the poetry of W. B. Yeats, Robert Frost, D. H. Lawrence and T. S. Eliot were used to illustrate his lecture. Auden also suggested that a man could not be a hero through his actions, but only through his deeds. “Deeds are to be distin- guished from actions in that they are performed by choice and therefore deeds can not be any- thing which are necessitated by Hamline Announces Individualized Study Program (Ed. note: Inhalation for the [allowing 3 t o r y was provided through the courtesy of the Kam- llne “Oracle.” We consider this llldivldlullled fludy program an Important tomrd step in col- lege education.) Hamline. university announced recently a new individualized study program. This program per- mit: superior students to study for credit any course in the col- lege curriculum without attend- ing any clans session. In making the announcement Dean Charles R. Wimmer stated, “A new program of individual- ized study which will give special attention to the needs of the su- perior student is being instituted this year at Hamline." The Hamline “Oracle” went on to say, “Under the new program a student may obtain credit for independent work on a special project, for any course in the cur— riculum on a reading basis with out necessarily attending classes, or by examination, “MAJOR IMPLICATIONS of the new program, according to Dean Wimmer, are that the stu- dent may broaden his education more than the curriculum allows, go deeper into his own particular ' field of interest, accelerate his educational program, or obtain credit for intensive study during vacations." Four types of individual pro- grams are offered under the Ham- line program. They include spe- cial project sections, individual reading for course credit, credit for examination, and independent study. “Life Insurance is for Youth - no! just for youth, but best Ior Youth” An Old Line Company [mam Minuu Lu: Insurance 600mm NOME OFFICE — WAVERLY. IOWA The special project 5 e c t i o n 5 would apply to students with un— usually good background for the subject or unusual learning abil- ity. Individual reading for course credit would allow the student with a “C” average to take any course in the curriculum for cre- dit wit h o ut attending classes. However the student would be e x p e c t e d to do considerable amounts of reading. CREDIT BY EXAMINATION allows the student to take an ex- amination on any course in the college curriculum and gain cre- dit for the course by passing the exam. Independent study involves re- search on special topics to “give the student an opportunity to probe deeply into a topic of spe- cial interest to him and experi- ence some of the techniques of advanced scholarship," “To REGISTER for one of the programs, a student must get the approval of his adviser, the in- structor of the course, the chair» man of the department and the dean of the university.” This Hamline study program which is on a one year trial basis, is a result of a Danforth founda- tion campus community workshop attended by several members of the Hamline staff last summer.

Johnson, Nancy Jury, Jerry Baker, Ronald Dahlc, Joan Bun- de, Vic Svanoe, Loicll Dyrud, and Mary Lee Fellrath. Ideas for original decorations were needed because indoor elec- tric Christmas lighting is prohi~ bited by city ordinance. The bul- letin board of the women‘s resi— dence is an example of the em- phasis on the general theme for the decorations, “Behold a Vir- gin.” Foreign Students Give Program For Women "Christina Around tho World" was the tllL‘lllt‘ ot' the ugsburg womcn's club Christmas program which was hold Tuesday evening.

The new plans abandon the distinc- tive style of the original design. Major change is that the pro» posed structure will now be a two floor building. The main floor will have three gyms, two side gyms 50 x 90 feet for physical education classes and a central gym 60 x 110 feet for basketball. Bleachers for games will be pulled out over the side gyms. Housing for the future pool is planned for the north end of the building. Entrance to the pool will be from the main floor. Ground floor will house the va- rious offices of the athletic de— partment. Class rooms, wrestling gym, varsity locker room. nhysL cal education lockers and hand ball courts will also be on the ground floor. Among reasons for the new plan is the necessity of retaining the present music building until permanent quarters can be pro- vided, conserving the existing field areas to spare expense in acquiring additional land and still provide adequate quarters for the physical education depart- mcnt.

However in the second half it took Stout three minutes forty- five seconds to gain their first bucket which gave the Augs an insurmountable lead and a vic— tory of 81-55. TRAVELING through a mild blizzard to the Blugolds of Eau Claire, Dick Robinson once again copped top scoring honors by dumping in 25 points for the Augs. Dale Roffers also poured in 15 points, but a lack of a balanced scoring offensive put the Auggies down in their first loss of the sea- son 68-75.

FOLLOWING the Friday night defeat the Augsburg cagers ven- tured over to Waverly, Iowa where a well balanced scoring at- tack by the Wartburg crew downed the Auggies 66-61. Dick Robinson again claimed scoring honors for the night as he pushed the ball through the hoop [or 23 points.

Would the halting of nuclear tests in- crease our national defense budg- et? Could any nation withstand a nuclear attack well enough to strike back? These are among the questions being discussed by college debat- ers across the country as they de~ bate the question, RESOLVED: That the further development of nuclear weapons should be pro- hibited by international agree- ment. On December 6. the Augsburg debate squad hosted a tournav ment of twin city league debates. he Augsburg team is coached by Miss Marybelle Riley. Deanna Hessedal helped organize the squad. Other Augsburg debators are Robert J ac o b s o n, Ralph ’l‘hoisgaard. and Dwight Sorheim. The negative team won one of their debates. The Augsburg affirmative plan was to decrease the defense budg- et while developing an interna- tional c o n t r 01 system which would include radioactive detec- tion 5 t a t i o n s throughout the world, These stations would pre- vent the further development of nuclear weapons both on the blackboard and on the test field and at the same time divert the saved money into plans for space explorations. Points are accumulated throughout four twin city league tournaments and a trophy is pre- sented to the team with the best record at the end of the season.

Show morePage Four Freedom Of The Press “Freedom of the press!” A beautiful phrase with many ramifica- tions, but what does it mean in a Christian college? Does freedom imply that our paper may say anything and everything that it desires or does it imply that we must toe strictly to a line which never veers and reflect perfectly the beautiful aspects of our campus? Taken in the second proposition we must define freedom as being a grant from someone, the board, the administration or the faculty— a grant to allow us to put anything into the paper so long as it meets with their approval. Freedom here means that we have the “privilege and honor" to pay for a newspaper and work on it for the glorious adornment of the school. We are indeed fortunate that our freedom of the press at this school comes not as a grant from the college, but as an entrustment by the school in the abilities of the students. We do not believe in pub- lishing anything and everything, but only those articles which we feel will add to the enrichment of the students. Although at times in the past few years we have been known to tear down many beloved and almost sacred traditions around the campus. always it has been for the purpose of inducing a change which will be for the long range good of Augsburg. This, we believe, will guarantee that our press will remain free. A $1200 Bulletin Board? Thirty per cent of the $4000 One Appeal goal is allocated to a bulletin board. If the purpose of One Appeal is to provide students With a method of giving to charitable organizations, why is a bulletin board included in this drive? A bulletin board is far from a charitable organization. The weak excuse that the student may designate the organization to which he wants his money given does not cover this $1200 sum. Would it not be better to let this project wait for a later drive when the campus plan is more definite, so that the board could be located near the center of student activities? Or maybe it will not be a reality now, but is just added to make the designations equal 100%. Nielsen's New Book Mainfains Desfiny Can Be Changed by Helen Bergan “In more ways than we are ready to acknowledge, we shape our own destiny—by the day to day choices we make, our atti- tudes, towards life's circum- stances, our responses to visions of greatness." This statement by Vice-presi— dent Norman L. Nielsen in the forward to his newly published book, “Days of Destiny," indicates the hint“ subject of his book— thzit human nature can be changed, and that God is present, iespccting the right to say “yes” or “no.” THIS ASSERTION that human nature can be changed is vividly illustrated in this book which is the story of seven people who knew Jesus personally. As the author describes them, “They were no picture window saints whose halos ncver slipped. They were no plionoys . . . They might easily have been your contem- porary.” In this same up-to-date lan- guage, Vice -President Nielsen narrated the stories of these New Testment individuals who either changed their destiny or tragical- ly did nott Through the writer’s imagina- tion, we can find our own needs expressed through the thoughts of such characters as “The youth who had everything," “The man who chose to die," and “The man who had to be shown.” Their ex- periences are all instances of what might have been, and are based on historical accuracy. THESE SEVEN stories were originally used as a series of sermons. Then, because it was thought that a paper—bound book of this type could be used in personal evangelism work, it was published. letter 30 37b guitar Dean Calls Attention To Campus Cheating To the editor: Charge of cheating on the cniiipu‘ p ‘ially in examina- tions have recently come to my attention, The report. have been so unspecific as to make it diffi- cult to deal with the problem.

But many little known happenings and facts happen daily around this campus which never come to the attention of the ordinary student. For instance, did you know that there are eight screws holding the imide handle on the door in Alpha house? Ask any custodian who recently replaced this handle after it had been torn off.

THE AUGSIURG ECHO Weiss. Does Religious Emphasis Fill A Need? “Do you think religiou em- phasis week successfully fulfills a need on our campus?" m: question was posed to eight stu‘~ dents last week. This questionaire does not pre- tend to be a random sampling but merely gives reactions of some students picked by the Echo staff. Students were asked to answer the question in one or two sen- tences. Roger Fisher, Minnnpolb soph- omore and member of the con- cert band, stated, “I think self preparation is all importantt REW can fulfill our basic need to get a proper perspective on the importance and nature of our spiritual life, if we enter its ac- tivities expecting and seeking God to accomplish this However, if we just rush headlong into it, we Will probably miss the whole Sharon Ralvo Roger Fisher point, and fail even to recognize our need." Social director of the sopho- more class from Minneapolis, Sharon Raivu, answered, “Yes, I think religious emphasis week is successful in that it creates a feeling of unity among the stu- dents as they are gaining a better understanding of what Christian- ity should mean to themi" . x... h. v“ /\ Mary Darrell Byhrc Gilbertson Mary Byhre, homecoming queen attendant and Minneapolis senior, said, "Yes, I think reli- gious emphasis is very successful to those it reaches, but I think this program is geared for those acquire instead a sense of futility. The instructor loses an instruc- tional tool, as well as a valid appraisal of the work of his stu< dents. The academic community loses in morale. Although at Augsburg we are not functioning now under what is called an honor system, we are not without honor or a sense of social responsibility. In spite of the fact that the student who cheats suffers most himself from the practice, other students hesi- tate to report him even when they have accurate knowledge of the situation. They should have no hesitancy, however, in re- porting to the instructor, or to me, that such activity is going on, with suggestions as to what re- medial action they feel may be taken This is exerc’ming one’s who are already attending chapel regularly and it doesn't reach those who do not." Religions life commissioner Darrel Gilbert-an, a Junior red- dent of mortal ball, stated. “I‘m not sure what everybody would term ‘succasful.’ but I am aware and certain of the spiritual ‘need‘ here on campus. Frankly, if the ‘need' were converted to the ‘desire‘ by Augsburg students, if only a few, for the blessed fel- lowship and conviction for Christ, DIAnn Christianscn Clayton Paulson I would call this REW an incred- ible and momentous Christian ‘success’—this, I believe, it has accomplished." Junior class president from Cllthergll,quayton Paulson re- plied, “I do not think religious emphasis week fulfills any need in itself, but that it can contrib- ute toward the spiritual growth which is necessary for each of us. Whether religious emphasis week does successfully contribute to- ward our spiritual growth de- pends upon the attitude and state of mind of the individual." 'students who really dun‘ to strengthen thunselvu spiritual- ly and who fuel In inadequat- ness in their faith receive new blessing; '1‘) this m religious emphasis week doe- mom I need on campus while other group aren‘t influenced any more than at any other time during tho yen}, Representative If “I “- men on student «Ind! ltd Amundson replied, “‘13.

Desire For More Money, less Worli Makes Politics Nearly Impossible by Odd Entloy Ed. Note: Norwegian foreign student Odd Kathy is studying American political life at Augs- burg this semester. “I’m going to bed," said George MacKinnon at 2 o'clock a.m. November 5. “I'm leaving early tomorrow morning for a two week vaca- tion,” added Orville Freeman. One had lost; the other was the winner. Both were worn out. And so more politics? The edi- tor has asked me to provide some personal impressions from the campaign. What is politich “The art of the possible?" the politicans, the professionals, are saying. A Nor- wegian farmer used these words, “More money, more food and less work." He saw it from a practical point of view. Practical? We have been seeing the Minnesota candidates‘ hob- bies, synods, private lives, kids, their nice Wives, and how they looked when they were 4%- years old. I know them exactly, but what about “the art of the possi- hie?” The programs, the issues, the realization of the future plans which can create the stability you are longing for in your national and international politic-f TV, radio, newtplper, shaking hands, the wonderful pictures make us interested, but' does this public relations give u: the facts the real truth? Senator Hubert Humphrey laid it is this way, “Perhaps we, both parties, are putting too much into public relations. We are loosing our parties’ ideology. But public relations is the business now, we have to follow up—we do not know how to stop." Another point—too many stu- dents are proud of being inde- pendent voters. What do you mean by being independent? Are you attending both the Republi- can and Democratic meetings, listening, wondering and leaming to make up your own opinion? How are you building up your individuality? By knowledge or by dreams? To be an independent in politics means to have a great responsibility. But I'm visiting the multitude America—so different from state to state, from settlement to settle- ment. So in politics too—new patterns, new ways of thinking, new ways of campaigning. It's exciting, sometimes shock- ing and refreshing. No conclusion: -——I am only wondering. Maybe that’s the best way of learning. 3i.

And everyone you ask about this statement will probably agree. However, how true is this? In today's world it storms that strivnig to get ahead follows the trend to go, go, go. Why? Is being recognized that important? Even though being nice, a good Joe, a swell fellow, and the like, is what pcopli- say you should do, it is not entirely what you should practice. Be a little mean now and then, in moderation of Course. People think more of the person that is meanness mixed with incomes than the \VlSlleraSl'Iy fellow who is boringly the same old nice pcrsiin every day. Then as you act mean and people come to you trying to got through to your inner iiiceness, you gain importance. You are now someone a little different, not too different, just a little. This is the way to gain importance and at the same time, people will talk about what a swell fellow you are.

Jason. He in turn brings her to Corinth, where he leaves her to marry Creusa, the king‘s daughter. Robinson Jeffer’s drama. a free translation from Euripides, begins at this point to portray the horrilfle suf- fering and equally horrible re- venge of Medea. Medea (Dorothy Larson) pos- sesses a depth and violence of Lasf minufe preparations are made by Denny Hatfield for the presentation of “Medea” at the Lutheran Brotherhood building Friday and Saturday nighL Providing advice and equipment is Dorothy Lamni love and hate difficult for us “civilized” people to understand. For we, like the three Greek women (Carol Vinger, Karen Hanse, Ileen Pipkorn) who come to comfort and stay to be hon-i. tied, believe “solitude is very dangerous." The two kings. Creon' (Bob Stevens) and Aegeus (Willard Olsen) are afraid of Medea, al- though they should be stronger- than they are played. Jason (Jim Glasoei has talked himself into confidense in his invincibility, and Medea is angered by his (well—acted) complacency as well as his infidelity. The nurse iShirley Harms) by her love and concern for Medea awakens sympathy for the tar» merited, exiled woman. The two little sons of Medea (David Ben- man and Philip Quanbeck, Jr.) provide the only link between the audience and the heroine. When she murders them she also mur- ders her own pity and her hope for retribution. She has shown herself stronger than pityAwhich she fears more than death. The play, in ossr‘iii‘e, succeeds in creating an illusion of grandeur and passion which leaves an un- easy realization of the world‘s evil, yet also a sense of the puri- fication suffering brings. It is a difficult play, well—done. Also included in the cast are David Horton, Dennis Hatfield, Claire Helland, Coralyn Lund- sted, Emy Tolzmann, Loiell Dy- rud and Marvin Isum. Dr. chven is in charge of lighting, Arden Flaten is stage manager and Judy D. Johnson is the student director. It will be given at the Lutheran Brotherhood Building Friday and Saturday evenings at eight. Positive Preaching Needs Insight And Clarify by Norman El Anderson Ed. Note: This article is reprinted from the “Concord” published bi- annually by the seminary. Our function as Christians is to be preachers. Our words, indeed our whole life. is intended to pro- claim that God has worked re- demption for men in a Man. Undoubtedly each of us has a mental picture of this Man and His message in the gallery of our imagination, Could it be an inade- quate one" We need to ask our- selvesiand then honestly answer ¥lf we as preachers are truly proclaiming Jesus Christ or are we creating difficulties for our- selves and our listeners With no~ tions of our own? HAVE “'5 sentimentalized and Expectations, should wear but today we got a little book :n our P.O.'s that told us all kinds of important things like ihe fellows should bring us girls flowers that won't clash With our dresses and wear them right side up And we shouldn't hold hands at the banquet but we get to hold elbows and arms and th:ngs lie that going up stairs. I don't really see the difference be- cause it seems to me that really. holding elbows is a lot more me tuiiate than holding hands. Then there were some other LthlgS that are pretty confusing too. Like it says that the fellows are supposed to pull our chairs out and I think that‘s a dirty mckf And. We're supposed to unfold our napkins triangularly but I don‘t know how: Really. though, I sure expect to have a Wonderful time even if misunderstood Him? Do we clut< ter our sermons with ministerial cliches thereby having them con- form to traditional pattern and making them deal repetitiously with the one incomparable Won- der? Are we meeting the unparal< leled challenge of our time with dedication and imagination or are we complacent and comfortably content With our prosaic pro— nouncements? In this day the preacher must strive to make clear what the Word says. Therefore, nothing else can suffice, except, in the words of Andrew Blackwood, “as the Spirit guides him in showing what the truth means in the life of today and tomorrow." We must follow Paul Scherer's advice and Frustration it will be an awfully long eveA ning. It starts at 6:30 and in the book it says, "When you finish, place the silverwarevat 20 min. utes past 4 — crosswise on the plate." And there's a punch party afterwards! Minerva “school ourselves rigidly in the fine art of being understood.“ The developments and prob- lems accompanying atomic and hydrogen power, missiles. and space satellites point up new con- flicts. burdens, and frustrations. From these, who is exempt? 0b- viously. it i“) this situation which creates such a momentous task for us today. The truth of the Word does not change but the circumstances which surround us do change. However, by keeping close to the _ heart of the Gospel and being cognizant of the needs of men and society. our preaching should be prophetic and have added weight, direction and authority With each message. IT IS AN AWESOME respons- ibility which lies upon our shoul- ders in proclaiming the divine truth. Robert McCracken warns that "we must he very sure that we have the thing about which we preach." May we identify and recognize the currents of life around us. Let us recognize even more the crucified Christ whose Word is the power of God to us, so it may be said of us, “There was a man from John 1:8. 3A2 jugdéurg. ado ALL-AMERICAN, 19576! .

THE AUGSBURG ECHO Page Three Augsburg Announces Fufure Campus Masfer Plan Preparing to fulfill its destiny in the field of Christian higher education, Augsburg college an- nounced during homecoming a new master plan for the future campus. Officially adopted by the board of trustees on October 13, the first construction will start dur— ing January of 1960. First build- ing to be erected will be the audi- torium gymnasium. THE LONG RANGE PLAN is composed of four 5 year phases. The first 0! these phases which includes the auditorium gymna- sium also contains plans for a student union and dormitory housing for 250 (125 men, 125 women) students. A large portion of the first phase will be given to educational developmuit. This will include improvement of faculty salaries, improvement of teaching tools and improvement of the academic curriculum and special services THE SECOND PHASE (1964 through 1999) includes construc- tion of the Augsburg towerl In this tower will be located the drama, speech and music depart- ments. A stage for dramatic pro- ductions plus radio and television studios are also planned for the tower. During phase II the dormitories will be finished making dorm room for about 640 students. The terminal education building is also included in this phase. This building will house business and vocational courses plus teacher- education. Our campus in I979.

PHASE III INCLUDES the chapel auditorium which will be located directly in front of the tower. This auditorium would seat about 1600. A creative arts pavilion and a social science building are also planned for this phase. Humanities will be included in the final phase. This final build- ing in the academic quadrangle will be located on approximately the same ground as the main building is now. The final phase also includes the construction of Board Decides To Name Gym In Honor Of Prof. Melby Friday the board of trustees announced that the new auditorium gymnasium will be named in honor of J. S. Melby. Melby was for many years basketball coach at Augsburg, John Sigurd Melby graduated from the college in 1911 and from the seminary in 1914. In 1920 he came to Augsburg to teach Christiani- ty and serve as dean of men, He was on the faculty from then until his death in January of 1944. In 1923 he was appointed head of the Christianity department. For many years he also served as director of athletics and basketball coach. Well liked by his colleagues and his students during his years at Augsburg. “Si” Melby was a dominating figure on the campus for many years. “Life Insurance is for Youth — not just for youth, but best for Youth” An Old line Company tut-rm Muniu hr: lusumcr Comm HOME OFFICE — WAVERlY, IOWA reserve classroom buildings on either side of the mall. The entire plan as presented now assumes that Augsburg will be able to obtain Murphy square from the city of Minneapolis. The board of trustees has presented Destruction Of Seven In preparation for the erection of the auditorium gymnasium the board of trustees announced that seven houses in the neighborhood will be torn down next spring. Morton hall and janitor’s resi- dence next to Morton will be among the first to be destroyed. Other houses that will be torn down include.the buildings lo- cated at 713 23rd ave., 2317 River- side ave, and three houses on seventh street42324, 2328 and 2316. Construction of the gym is scheduled to begin during Janu- ary of 1960. According to the present plan the auditorium will seat 3500 and 5000 if the gym floor is used. This building will also serve as the college assem- bly hall until the auditorium chapel is erected. Women’s and men's gyms are included in the plan. The parti~ tion between the two can be {old ed back to make room for the bleachers and to provide the floor for intercollegiate contests. Classrooms and offices for the physical education faculty to- gether with locker rooms flll the outside ring of the building. A wrestling gym is located behind the main gyms. 0n the cast and of the building an intercollegiate swimming pool be constructed. This pool will meet all standards necessary for swimming meets between col- leges. VVlll a formal request to the Minno- apolis board of park commission» ers for the 3‘9. acre park.

SPAN Scholarships Send Students Abroad Three Augsburg students will study abroad on SPAN (Society for Promotion of Amity Among Nations) scholarships next sum~ mer. Naomi Christensen, 8 Minne— apolis junior, will study art in Japan. She has an English major and Spanish, religion, and history minors. Naomi is assistant editor of the “Augsburgian,” editor of the student handbook, and has particrpated in music activities. Bruce Amundson, a pre-medi» cine student from Climax, Min- nesota, will study deficiency dis- eases in Japan. Bruce is a chem— istry major and a biology minor. He is a Junior and is vice presi- dent of the student body. Karen Hanse wrll study folk lore in Scotland. A Morris, Min- nesota junior, she is in music and English education. Karen parti- cipates in music and drama acti- vities. Scores on area tests given to 90 1958 Augsburg seniors show that they ranked above the aver- age mean of other college seniors participating in the tests. Area tests are one of two types of tests given to graduating sen- iors. They test the student’s gen- cral knowledge in the fields of humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. Seniors were also given tests in their fields of major study. Biology, literature, and sociology majors ranked above a v e r a g 9 while chemistry, history, mathe- matics, music and philosophy ma- jors ranked below those in other colleges. ' It should be noted, however, ACP Rates Yearbook Ist Class Announcement of a first class rating for the 1958 Augsburgian was recently made by the A550- L'laIL‘d Collegiate press (ACP). This is the third consecutive year that the yearbook has achieved .1 first class rating which is sec- ond in a series of five ratings. The top rating is All-American.

Under the new counseling system and accompanying rules, all male students who are home are to be in their rooms by 11 pm. and in bed with the lights out by 12 pm. While relationships between freshmen and upperclass dorm resi- dents were being cemented last week, the counselors were strictly adhering,r to the rules they were told to enforce. While freshmen were being treated to guided tours of the city by moonlight (perhaps wish- ing for some assistance from these upperclassmen to whom they were to go with their problems) the counselors were busily dreaming of their IlL‘VV’fOUTld authority. We would suppose that all rules are established to be obeyed and if they are not obeyed some action must be taken to enforce them. Perhaps the new dorm regulations are just so much ink on so many muncographcd sheets.

But, this is not the Norway thlt now comes first to my mind Perhaps a weekend trip to- gether into one of the beautiful valleys of rural Norway to visit friends and relatives will show more precisely what I mean. We make Hie five kilometer trip from the Fagerness station up to the old home farm in a very crowded and “air conditioned" Model '1‘ Ford truck which makes the trip without missing a belt. THOUGHTS 01" “old filth- ioned" and "backward" which have begun to sneak into our minds are terribly confused I: we walk into the house and b into a big, new deeptreeze pro- truding from one corner.

Evenings are spent around the piano singing national songs and hymns. But, in what way has this weekend altered our view of Nor- way? Do you remember that old Model ’1‘ Ford? Why haven‘t they bought a new truck? Surely. new pickups are more difficult for these people to buy than for the average American farmer to buy, but their neighbors have a new pickup. And, how about that new deepfreeze — no, these people aren‘t that poor. Perhaps that old Ford is doing the job just on well as the new pickup would, and \M phrase "keeping up with the Joneses" does sound terribly out of context here. DID YOU NUI'ICE how these people “rolled out the red carpet for us" all the while making us believe that we were doing them a big favor for visiting them? Do you suppose these people in the absence of material wealth have found happiness and security— have become rich in family ties, in love for one another, in an eternal hope? Do you suppose the fjords aren't the greatest thing about Norway?

THE AUGSBURG ECHO Augs Dry Augsburg‘s football eleven lost their first two conference games with Concordia and Macalester at the home fields of each team. The Auggies were overcome 28 to 6 by the Scots and 18 to 13 by the Cobbers. TRAVELING ACROSS the riv- er last Saturday, the Auggies spirit was high after the hard— fought Concordia game. However, Scot spirit was higher after their resounding defeat at the hands of St John‘s a week ago thus inspir- ing them to be alert and capital- ize on Augsburg’s mistakes. Dick Robinson was the only maroon and gray player to cross the goal line in a touchdown at- tempt His attempt to convert the extra point failed when a Macal- ester lineman broke through and partially blocked the kick. Dick managed to accumulate a total rushing and passing yardage of 11"] yards for the evening. This brings his season’s total to 284 yards rushing and passing which is about one>ha1f of the total Aug- gie offense. THE OTHER BRIGHT SPOT in the Auggie backfield was Frank Hawks, who scampered and tore through the Scot defense repeatedly. Everett Flom, senior Gridmen Face Tough Foes Augsburg's strength is going to be taxed to the limit in the next two weekends on the gridiron. This coming Saturday the Aug- gies journey to st. Thomas where they will meet a stalwart line and fast backs. It is the line that has been weak in Augsburg’s play because of the many injuries. With the resound— ing defeat suffered at the hands of Macalester behind them, Augs- burg’s eleven might be up for the game to such an extent that they will be a formidable foe.

In the preceding week's play at Concordia, Augsburg’s offensive plays turned into large yardage gains. Ted Malinsten. sophomore quarterback, drove through the Cobber line at will on keeper plays. It was on one of these plays that Ted broke for 70 yards on a key block by Dick Robinson, gain» ing a TD. Then late in the third quarter Ron Thompson skirted around right end for 17 yards and the second Auggie tally. Dick Robin- son converted the point after touchdown making it 13 for Augs- burg.

The late Auggie attempt was cut short when the Concordia pig- skinners intercepted a pass from Kalpin to Robinson. Concordia, however. maintained its first half lead downing the Auggics 18 to 13.

If you take time out and study it carefully plus remembering what you did when you were the same age a definite pattern de- velops. First of all these sports Hunting License A & D HARDWARE follow rigidly the regular profes- sional seasons—starting not much before and never ending after. Each kid contributes one or more pieces of equipment. You will never find a fully equipped team. Next a suitable area is chosen with boundaries marked by “this tree,” “the end of the garage,” and “a pop bottle.” After the area of the coming contest is outlined teams must be picked. One method of doing this is to break the kids down into sectional groups such as “The First Street Gang” vs. “The East- enders.” Another way is to ape 2205 Riverside 2I14 Riverside FE 3-5708 point captains who alternately chose up sides.

Dr. Nash is back at Augsburg this year after a semester's leave of absence spent studying the teaching of natural sciences in cight colleges across the United States.

Dr. Jarrett Urges Great Book Study Groups Emphasizing that a college edu- cation is merely a preparation for an adult education, Dri James L.- Jarrett, president of the Great books foundation, addressed a coffee hour convocation Friday. Beginning near the end of World War 1, Great books study groups have blossomed to 21,000 with about 35,000 people utilizing their facilities. Great books, a nonprofit organization, provides lists of books that groups may study and discuss. Many conditions gave rise to this movement begun by John Erskine. professor of literature at C olumb ia university. Among these was the fact that many col- lege grads admitted that they had not actually read the great writ- ers of the past This was coupled with their willingne§ to read an interpretation of the work rather than the work itself. A third reason for establishing the study group class situah‘un was to make the student ferret out the facts to he found in the work without any asishme from an instructor. A bask tenet of the Great books foundation is that all discussion shall be on am free and democratic process.
