Certainly we want every week of the year to have the right spiritual emphasis, yet in a very real way, Spiritual EmpahSis Week is a time of crisis at Augsburg. It has been so since its beginning. Other things are put asrde, even in some measure books and assignments, and students and faculty alike seek what the Lord has to give. Some find salvation, a new life, for the first time; some learn of a deeper and richer life with God; others perehaps are cal-led to missions or for ministry.

Topics for the studies are “A Model Christian,” “The Dynamics of Paul’s Life,” “Lumi- naries,” “Losses vs. Gains,” and “The Secret of Joy and Peace.” Spiritual E m p h a sis is your week. Its purpose is to bring you into“ more vital contact with the problems of a Christian life. Exe pose yourself to the presentation of these sermons.

Because of draft status they have left us for the service of their country. There are a number who have orders to take physicals and thereby their status is still mknown. The Army has taken its number. Don Allar, one of the foot— ball team‘s starting tackles has gone, as 'has Tom Ohno. Lil‘ Tom, trainer to the athletic teams and friend to all, will probably be an interpreter. Don Ewert, a senior expecting to graduate in January, was taken early this fall. The Navy took Frank Cummings before he could even get back into school. The Marine Corps was the first to pick up our boys. Dave Westr fall, the camera bug, left early this summer. Dave Froiland left early this last week :for the west coast and the Marines. Stan Benson, center on the football team, is expected to leave any day. The boys with the notices are Fritz Anderson, Willie Brown, and Dick Rosten. Whether being in school will help these boys is un’ known, but good luck to them all! phasis Week will be upon us. The dates for this fall’s special Auggie Republicans Hosts .to Collegians Delegates ifrom Augsburg Col’ lege's Republican Club are to be hosts at the Fall Conference of the Minnesota Federation of Col' lege Republican Club to be held at the Dyckman Hotel here in Minneapolis today and tomorrow. The 13 member schools are sending delegates to the confer' ence to discuss the party plat, form, formulate resolutions, and learn about the job they will be doing in the coming elections. At the opening plenary ses sion, Federation Chairman Ger' ald Patterson, junior at the Uni— versity of Minnesota, will c'hall lenge the college students to come forth to help elect responsible men to state and federal positions and to continue to expand “GOOD GOVERNMENT“ as advocated by the Republican Parr ty. Saturday night the group will hear Governor Luther Young! dahl, Robert Forsyth, Chairman of the Leonard Lindquist camr paign for Railroad and WilX'C‘ house Commission, and Ward Flemming, Republican candidate for congress. Erling Rodvik, a junior here at Augsburg, is General Arrange' ments Chairman for the Confer' ence. Other Auggie delegates to the confab are: Biff Aune, Dave Hagert, Evelyn Alwfsen, Donna Zimmerman, Marlo Peterson, Jim Waller, Bob Hofflzinder, Mel Sol’ berg, Yvonne Emerson, and Chuck Anderson. Augsburg Faculty Attends Institute Following the present trend to! ward emphasis on student coun’ selling, a conference on coun' selling students is to be held at the C c n t e r for Continuation Study at the University of Min’ nesota, October 16, 17, and 18. The conference will be attend- ed by the persons directly con- cerned with counselling at the colleges of the Northwest. Miss Mortensen, Dean of Women; Miss Joel, Registrar; Rev. Strom- men, Campus Pastor; Mr. Traut- wein, head of the testing service; and Mr. Dahlen, Dean of Men, are Augsburg’s representatives. Miss Theda Hagenah, Chair! man of the conference, is a mem' ber of the University Student Counselling Bureau. Dr. Ralph Berdie, Director of the Student Counselling Bureau, and Dr. Gil‘ bert Wren, Professor of Educar tional Psychology in the College of Education at the University, are among the other speakers. Anyone who [performs counsel! ling duties may attend the con' ference. A registration fee of five dollars will be charged. ;The Lutheran Teacher’ Theme for ’50 Lutheran College Conference Plans are complete for the Fourteenth Annual Conference of the Association of Lutheran College Faculties to be held ‘here at Augsr burg beginning Friday, October 20, and continuing over the week! end. The theme of the convention is “The Lutheran Teacher." Dr. George F. Hall, head of the Christianity Department of Guy tavus Adolphus College at St. Peter and President of the Associa’ tion, will begin the Conference when he addresses the Augsburg College Chapel exercises Friday morning. A fellowship supper will be served Friday evening, at which Dr. Christiansen will bring greet! ings to the group and addresses will be presented on the topics, "The Lutheran Teacher‘s Task in the Present World Conflict," and “The Lutheran Student," by Dr. Carl Luneruist, Assistant Exe' cutive Director of the National Lutheran Council, and Dr. Ruth Wick, Vice President of Carthage College, respectively. Dr. Hall will once again ad’ dress the group at the business session, to be held Saturday morn' ing. At the close of this session, the conference will break up into departmental groups for discus— sion. These discussion groups will be led by the heads of the vari- ous departments here at Augse burg. Dr. Paul Holmer 0f the Unir versity of Minnesota will address the group at the concluding bani quet, to be held in the Augsburg Dining Hall Saturday evening. He will speak on “Christ and the Teacher.“ I Foster Group Offers Opportunity to Serve By Hilde Does your heart ache and your soul sigh for those unfortunate \var children who have never known normal lives—only hunr ger, tragedy, and fear? Does something within you want to reach out and grasp the hand of a child who is motherless and fatherless? Maybe one of our society groups here at Augsburg can do their hit by helping thousands of children now in desperate need overseas by becoming a Foster Group. A Foster Group is merely a socrcty or club who undertakes the responsibility of adopting a displaced child. This is done by providing financial support for the child's welfare, T h r o u g h this adoption the child is given religi' ous instruction, schooling. shel' tcr, food, and clothing. Already over 60,000 children have been helped. Even if complete adoption is out of the question, probably your group could supply medical aids to give some comfort and hope which will make their lives more normal. It means only a little ef- fort put forth on your part and just imagine the happiness you will experience by making a youngster happy! Reports show that over seventy five per cent of war children have tuberculosis or are suspects of this dreaded dis- ease. Would it be possible for you to put a smile on their face and wipe a tear from their cheek? These are the children who are living in the same world as we are, and it will depend on us to make them better citizens of to morrow. Friendship and coopera' tion is greatly needed. PEEK!!!

Democrats, however, are strongly urged to attend also. Don‘t let the Republicans scare you. You need not be a politician to a t te nd either.

At various times throughout the year special speak’ ers will address you during the convocation period, College Presents Complete Home Economics Program Home economics has come into its own at Augsburg! A home economics teaching major, a col! lege major, and a college minor have been approved. Enrollment in the department has grown this fall considerably over last year. There are five kit! ehen units available in the Home Economics Department. Last year the Food Preparation Class had only three members; this year there are nineteen. The Art in Daily Living Class has grown from twenty'thrce to fortythrec, and its members completely fill the room. The advanced classes are still small but this gives a greater chance for individual at, tention. There are twenty-foqu girls working on majors in home eco- nomics and twelve working on minors. All the classes are open to both men and women students. Aftcr registration was complete this fall and Mrs. Anderson found out how many girls were to be in the department she decided that one of the first projects for the Home Management Class would be to buy more equipment for the kitchen units, By doing this, the class has an excellent opportunity to compare the price and quality of the different articles they pur' chase. Due to the increased interest in home economics at Augsburg, a Home Economics Club is being organized for the first time in the school’s history. All home eco- nomic majors and minors are in- vited to join this new organiza- tion. It is to be affiliated with the National Home Economim Asso- ciation. Th e President of the Home Economics Club at the University of Minnesota has promised her help in assisting the organization of the club at Augs- burg. Show less

SW 7% 74¢ pm 301 Nature played a cruel trick on one of the biggest football crowds the Auggies have had at an opponent's field this year. The rain which fell at the Macalester game really soaked the faithful followers of the maroon and gray. However, they did witness one of the better exhibitions put on by the Augsburg gridders this year. Also, I‘m sure the boys appreciated the fine support given to them by you fans under such adverse weather conditions. Bob Hage, who was injured at the beginning of the game, suffered a «bruised lung and ribs. It was thought for a while that he had suffered a punctured lung, but fortunately this wasn‘t the case. Bob is out .for an indefinite period. With Hage injured more help for Don Slarks and Swede Swanson will have to be found at left half. Palmer Ronholm 'has a possible fractured fibula but more xrrays will be taken to make sure. The injury shouldn‘t keep him on the shelf too long. It must be that Don Slarks is a “mudder.” He came up with some of the best running of the year when it seemed anything but power plays would prove futile. Tom Smiton should also be commended for 'his fine punting throughout the contest. From now on Leroy Nyhus, (manager of team) Will be in charge of the football team's bus. There was some delay in getting the bus onto the Mac field so Nyhus took it upon himself to see that the boys would have enough time for warmups. He issued more commands to the bus driver in one minute than an ordinary Iboatswain‘s mate would give in a year. He got results, too. It seems that all the football boys like the maroon jerseys better Tony Johnson than the gray. Could it be that they will be worn the rest of the year? ' Straiton, Lindquist Shine=Baldy When confronted with the problem of picking out two players who have looked especially good for the last couple of games we realized that this would be no easy assignment. In spite of the fact that the Auggies have yet to win a game there have been numerous fisfiances in which many of the gridders have more than shown their '-ity. However, after much consideration we felt that the efforts of guard Bob Lindquist and fullback Tom Straiton warrant special considera- tion. Bob,anaggressiveguardinhisownright,hascomealongway since his first year, when he was another awkward and chinsy freshman. Now he has developed into what the mocha refer to as “a minute man.” If e can keep up the terrific work he has done so far this season, it w d not surprise us to see him picked for the All State team. Switching to the backfield we find Tom Straiton, a talented punter and ball carrier and probably one of the toughest line backers on the team. Tom is also“‘a. sixty minute man“ and has been called on many times to carry the ball when the yardage comes hard. A forty yard touchdown gallop against Hamline is the highlight of his many brilliant runs so far this season. Auggies Score Twice While Bowing to Piper Onslaught . By Richie Howells The Hamline Pipers, paced by Bobby Carew and Johnny Hansen, opened their conference schedule with an impressive 31 to 13 victory over the Auggies at Norton Field on Saturday, September 30. This game was to be played on Friday night, but was moved to Saturday because of the rainy weather and sloppy field. Augsburg’s defense during the first half was lax. The Piper halfbach were quick to take advantage of this. They scored three - touchdowns in the first half. This was enough to carry them through the game. The second half was better from the Augs- burg standpoint, as they out- scored the Pipers 13-12. Piper Passes Spell Defeat for Fresh ' SCOTSMEN CLIP BATTLING EAGLES 7-0; SLARKS, KOTTOM, LINDOUIST, KUROSS STAR By Harvey Scoring on a fourth down pass, midway in the last period, the Macalester Scotsmen defeated Augsr burg 7,0 in a hard fought battle at Max‘s field October 6. The pass from Bob Engwer to Jack Rock finr ished up the desperate but successful attempt to score. The Auggies had two chances to score; once in the second quarter when the boys marched for about 65 yards, but lost the ball on an intercepted pass, and again in the third period when Jim Kottom inr Sports Editor Tony Johnson mt AUGSBUDG ECHO SW Friday, October 13, 1950 SW Page Three HAGERT SETS THE PACE IN INTRAMURAL BOWLING The Intra'mural bowling league started off with a bang last Wednes' day evening, with eight teams rolling in two shifts at Citizens Club alleys. The Rolling Pins got off to a fast start by taking the Mitzels Own for three games. Dave Hagert was high man with a big 553 count for the Rolling Pins, but Mr. Trautwein was right behind for the Mitzels Own with a 512. The Ally Rats also managed to take three games from the Go Bars, but they barely won the first one, by only one pin. The Yo’Yo’ites trounced the “No'Name'Yet,” win n i n g all three games. Don Reimer‘s high game was 206, and he had a 537 count for the evening. The Hup'Hups, paced with Howie Pearson‘s 225 game, won two from the Amazons in the other contest of the evening. The IntrarMural football hasn‘t really started yet, with only one game having been played. That game was between the South! western Minnesota Giants and the Ramblers. The Giants edged the Ramblers by a score of 8 to 6. Don Roberts scored the touch down and Ronald Berge the safe— ty to provide the winning margin for the victory. o Augs to Play Hockey? There is a rumor around cam‘ pus that only twelve athletes will enjoy the winter sports season. Basketball, according to this ru» mor: will be the only sport spon» sored by Augsburg this winter. Augsburg could easily attract enough enthusiasts of another winter sport—hockey—to form a team. The athletic office has received complaints about the rink being close to residents property. If this is the only reason for discon— tinuing hockey it should be pos sible to find a way to organize a team. One solution might be to make the rink a little smaller. . . . A Hockey Enthusiast Jespersen, Fraasch Leave Thinclads The cross'country team receive ed a severe jolt this season with the loss of coach Floyd Foslien to private business. The team has finished no lower than second place in three years of competi' tion. Leading the team against Ma- calester Thursday will be Bill White, the veteran Speedster from St. Paul. Jim Hansen and George Ruud will also be back from last year’s second place tam. Ward- en Kidder and Ron Main will be the newcomers to the team h ing that they will be able to fill the vacant shoes left by Gene Jespersen and Forest Fraasch. The home meets will be held at Lake Nokomis where there is plenty of space for the Auggie followers. The conference meet will also take place at Nokomis so why don‘t you follow the team and give them a pat on the back. ——Gene Jesperson BOX SCORE AUGSBURG MACALESTER Norton Hodfield Konom . . . . . .

Rock tercepted a pass on Macalester's 18 yard line. In neither instance could the boys punch the ball across for a touchdown. In losing the game it can be said that the Eagles outplayed the Scots throughout most of the game, but could do nothing once inside the Opponents 20 yard line. In most cases passes seemed to stop the Eagles’ well moving ground offense. Little Don Slarks led the Eagle attack with his sharp, hard run ning. Although he was hit hard many times, the 123 pound “giant” pounded up ready to go. In the line, Corcaptain Jim Kotr tom, guard Bob Lindquist, and end Bill Kuross, played a terrific game. Korth led the attack for the Scotsmen, domg most of the run! ning and picking good gains over the Eagles strong side. The Augsburg team seemed to be far better than the team that played Hamline. Defensiver and offensively they were fighting for every yard. The backfield showed improvement in that there were no fumbles and the blocking was better. BY THE WAY WE NEED YOU!

The first half was played on even terms until two minutes be» fore the intermission when Ham‘ line scored two quick touchdowns and added both extra points to make their half time advantage 140. In the opening minutes of the second half the Pipers rolled up their third and last T; D. of the afternoon, which, like the first two, was scored on a quarterback to end pass. This time, though, the Auggies thwarted Hamline‘s extra point try: From then on Augsburg played good defensive ball and allowed no more Piper scoring throughout the remainder of the contest. Carew and Hansen ripped off much yardage around the Auggie ends. These fleet'footed halfbacks were slipping past the ends and picking up the yardage before the defensive wingbacks moved up to make the tackles. Coach Bdor Nelson opened up with some new plays in the sec' 0nd half that set up the Auggie touchdowns. Jim Olund and Tom Straiton each reached pay dirt for Augsburg. Olund scored on a plunge over tackle after Jim Kot— tom helped move the ball to the Piper ll yard line. Tom looked as if he Ihad the speed of a half! back, when he executed a spinner play and ran 35 yards for the Auggies‘ final score. John Norr ton added the extra point. / John Garland The rain washintermittent; there was one big bolt of lightning—Bob Engwer to Jack Rock; but the thunder continued all night. The man behind these electrical discharges was Mac fullback Otto Korth. Though he did not figure directly in the scoring, his terrific offensive game tabs him as a man to reckon with the remainder of the season. This weekend, the Minnesota College Confer, ence race will break wide open with four of the five top teams meeting each other. The number one posi' tion will be decided tonight as Gustavus invades the St. Thomas stadium. If the Gusties can box Jim "Popcorn" Brandt, the Tommies‘ one man offensive of late, the Toms will probably have to turn to the airlanes. Though Gustavus has one of the best offensive lines for a ground game, I believe their offensive ends, Haldo Norman and Dwight Hol' combe, will have much to say about the outcome. Gustavus should emerge a two touchdown winner. Saturday night the action shifts to Norton Field as St. John‘s, once beaten, meets Hamline, two game conference winner. The Johnnies should have little them. comeback win. trouble with the Pipers, who have had considerably weaker opposition. If the home eleven expects to score, it will have to be wide around the ends or over the top. The Johnnies‘ line will be too much for Last week Gustavus traveled to Youngstown Col- legc in Ohio and returned the victor. Touchdown passes to Norman and Holcombe and a short plunge by Gene Payne gave the St. Peter boys a 20,14 St. Thomas handed Duluth Branch their first de' feat in three conference starts as Jim Brandt ex! ploded for four touchdowns. When Jim finished running the scoreboard read 41'12. Thanks to two Concordia fumbles in the third quarter, Hamline was able to turn them into touch' downs and wreck the Cobbers‘ Homecoming 20»7. St. John‘s made it number two as they smothered St. Mary‘s 340. George Pribyl scored twice. St. Olaf traveled to South Dakota State, but left for home on the short end of a 3144 score. Show less

Yup, you guessed it—the Employment Oflice and its staff is willing at all times to help you find a full or part/time job. Since the middle of September the Employment Service has made approximately 140 part—time placements among our Auggie students. These placements consist of nearly every type of job ranging from office stenography to making popcicles. Mr. Bueide says, “Part'time L.W.V. llStraw Votell Reminds Auggies of Coming Elections Augsburg‘s League of Women Voters will sponsor a "straw vote" here at school sometime be; fore the November state elec' tion. The faculty, staff, and stu’ dents (regardless of age) are urged to cast their ballots. The purpose of this “straw vote" will be to remind the Augsburg fam‘ ily to vote in the coming election; to acquaint them with the candi— dates for the state offices; and to see how they will vote at the polls in November. The offices to be voted on at this school election will be Gov- ernor of Minnesota; United States Representative, Third Con- gressional District; and United States Representative, Fifth Con- gressional District. The candidates for Governor to be voted on will be Luther W. Youngdahl, GOP, and Harry H. Peterson, DFL. Alfred D. Lindley, GOP, and Roy W. Wier, DEL, are the can didatcs running for United States Representatives, Third Congres' sional District. Lindley, a practic- ing lawyer in Minneapolis since 1930, was elected to the Minne- sota Legislature, Thirtyrfirst Leg‘ islative District in 1940. Wier, a former electrician and official of the Central Labor Union, was a member of the Minnesota House 0 f Representatives, T w e n t y» eighth Legislative District from 1933 to 1939, and was elected to the H 0 use of Representatives, United States Congress in 1948. He is now finishing his first term in the Eighty—first Congress. employment has shown much more of a demand this year than last year due to the fact that emf ployers are having more trouble finding fulltime employees." It' can be said that the Em- ployment Service at Augsburg has done equally as much if not more in the line of placements than any other college in Minne- sota. We have a greater advan- tage, however, for we are located in the meteropolitan area. One of the biggest things comr ing up this‘year is employment during Christmas vacation, so if you plan on making some extra spendola during the holiday rush, now‘s the time to get on the ball! Applications are open beginning October 16, at the St. Paul Union ' Depot for fellows who would be interested in handling mail and packages at $1.411/2 an hour. For the benefit of the people who have not yet been placed, Mr. Bueide kindly persuades each and every student to keep com' ing in at regular intervals to inr quire about prospective openings. The candidates for U nited States Representative, Fifth Con« gressional District, are Walter H. Judd, GOP, and Marcella F. Kil' len, DFL. Judd, a physician and surgeon, has been the United States Representative, Fifth Disr trict, from 1943 to 1950i Killen, a housewife and businesswoman, has not held a public ofice but polled the largest DFL general election vote in twelve years in the 1948 election. Both have been active in civic activities. The information about the cane didates was taken from answers to questionaires s u b m it t e d by the Minneapolis League of Wom» en Voters to the candidates runr ning for the public offices. Blubl icity By Mary Bakken Clubs—yes, here‘s a topic that is sure to be of interest to all, so let your eyes linger for the 2 min! utes it will take to read this— the latest scoop on Club News around Augsburg. Ever hear of the Yo'Yo Club? Well, I haven‘t either but it new er hurts to learn. This exclusive organization has the reputation of being the first LM. club to en' ter a float in the homecoming parade and they are hoping that other clubs will follow their ex” ample. To all students who have not been informed: Augsburg does have a drama club. The saying goes that you don‘t have to be big to be a success and now this small group will prove it. Plan, ning definitely to present two tree'act plays during the ‘50"51 season. they are urging the whole hearted support of all to attend its dramatic productions. Listen—everyonc—The Repub' lican Club of Augsburg is spon» soring a Convention at the Dyck‘ man Hotel, Oct. 14 and 15, and the general public is cordially in' vited to the smorgisbord that Sat, urday evening for the paltry sum of $2.00 a plate. Come one— come all to this gala affair. Kan du snakke norsk? Nei? Well that's O.K. because all can have a good time if you join the Norse Club. Its first meeting, 00 tober 3, was opened ‘by everyone singing in and singing Scandinavi' an songs like the good old Norr skys they all weren‘t. Plans were made to have a prize float in the parade and later on this year, they hope to present a Norse comedy play which is guaranteed to keep you rocking. A note of interest—cheerlead‘ ers will receive new sweaters ac, cording to the motion made by the Student Council, October 3rd. Other parts of the uniform will also be purchased later—if finan' ces permit it. Last, but far from least, is for the camera fans in our midst. Join the Camera Club and re‘ ceive the opportunity to learn fil-m development and enlarge‘ ment fundamentals from the more experienced club members and through speeches made by professional photographers. AUBIBIJDG ECI‘ID Committee Chairmen, committees f Appointed for Homecoming Events ' According to Dave Rokke, Chairman of Augsburg‘s 1930 Homecoming, it‘s going to be great. The dates for this important event have been set for cheweekend of November 2nd. The homecoming festi- vities will begin with the special chapel service at Trinity Church on Friday morning. The speaker at this service will be Judge Luther Sletten. After chapel there are many activities planned which should prove to be very beneficial to all who attend. The parade, homecoming dinner, bonfire, and corona- tion of the queen are just a few of the many highlights. The theme for this year is based on Romans 14:19, “Edify One Another.“ N.S.A. Chapter Meets To Organize, Elect At a meeting held on Wednes' day, October 4, the Augsburg chapter of the N.S.A. organized for the year 1950’51. Under the leadership of LeRoy Anenson, President of the chapter, the fol' lowing oErcers and committees were elected: Eugene Anderson, Vice Presient; J o a n n e Vamer, Secretary; K e n n e t h Anderson, Treasurer; E s t h e r Hoversten, Chairman of Student Life; Earl Dreyer, Chairman of Cultural Af' fairs; Wilfred Aune, Chairman of International Affairs; and Pub! licity students; Dean Erickson and Beverly Gryth. Committees were also set up to take care of the Student Discount Service. Eugene Anderson and Esther Hoversten, official Auggie dele- gates to the annual convention of the National Student Associa- tion, reported on their trip. There were approximately 750 students in attendance at the convention, held at the University of Michi- gan in Ann Arbor, from August 23 through 31. Some of the major issues fac— ing the congress were the relationr ship with International Union of Students, Student‘s Rights, site and continuity of National Office, reorganization of National Staff, and loyalty oaths. Student Directory, Handbook at Press In the not too distant future, every Auggie student and faculty member will own one of the most useful bits of information on the campus, the Student Handbook and Directory. It is a handy pock‘ et sized booklet issued every year. When you thumb through the die rectory, you will find an alphabet, ically arranged list of students' names, home addresses, box num' bers, telephone numbers, a list of Seminary students, faculty, dint ing hall and maintenance staff, student nurses, directory of Lu' theran Free churches, a calendar of events, library rules, and so! ciety, club, and class officers, plus other facts. Two more songs are being add— ed in addition to the Augsburg Song. Due to the increased amount of information, a table of contents will be included. The slogan which has been the main problem of this homecom» ing, finally has been decided upon —“ATrOM, AUGGIES." The Chairman and members of the homecoming committee are doing a wonderful job. The chair' men of the various committees are: D o r 0 ch y Skonnard, Arr chives; Dick Myhre. Bon Fire; Glen Hendrickson, Homecoming Buttons; Kenny Sorenson, Choir Concert; Marvel Moe, Coronas tion; Arvin Halvorson, Finances; Paul Balrud, Erosh'SOph Tussel; Jim Christopherson, Mid ' Week Service; Orville Olson, and Yvonne Bagley, O p e n House; Morris Johnson, Parade; Frank Ario, Prayer Meeting; Clair Hoi' field, Publicity; Dolores Flaa, Queen Elections; Betty Munson and Eleanor Baker, Refreshments; Biff Aune and Roger Nelson, Tal- ent show. ’ Russian Escapee Writes Feature on "Nothing" By Janis Anderson “Write a 140 word feature on anything,“ was the demand. “Have it in by Tuesday mornr ing," accompanied by a stern look made it clear to me what was to be done. Take the first statement including the word “anything.” Inquiry was begun on what a feature on "anything" would in— elude. “Social activities at Augs» burg“ was suggested. “The lack of enthusiasm on the part of Auggie boys to date Auggie girls“ sounded like a very timely subject but one could really get involved. Thus, the afternoon was soon gone and with it all hopes of a feature on “anything.” uThe Ko— rean situation“ sounded a little deep when glancing t h r o u g h newspapers for ideas. “Will Dick Tracy ever catch T. V. Wiggles?" could have been debated. Not one showed any hope of inspiration. Thus ends a feature on “any- thing." Now, back to the salt mines. Editor Explains New Policy Beginning with this issue, we on the Echo staff are running an additional feature which we would like very much to continue. I refer, of course, to the litho' graphed picture section. Thus far, we are still able to keep within our budget and run this type of thing.

Several committees were formed to promote the activities of the Augsburg lettermen‘s club. The most important committee formed was the loan committee, whose members are Harvey Pe- terson, Dick Petersen, Tony Johnson, and John Leak. The ,duties of these four are to q) prove loans to members of the “A” Club and to arrange terms so a loan may be repaid the fol- lowing summer. It is hoped that this assistance will enable some of the athletes to stay in school and continue to participate in their particular sport. Two homecoming committees were also formed. LeRoy Nyhus‘ is chairman of the float commit' tee with assistance coming from Mark Raabe and Don Reimer. A homecoming program commit, tee comprised of Dick Petersen, Richie Howells, and John Leak is planning what they hope will be one of the best homecoming programs seen at Augsburg. P. A. System Is Meant for Use Attention, all students! Are you planning parties here at school? In the past it has been hard to hear the speakers at social events held in the gymnasium. This should not :be necessary for there is a public address system here at Augsburg. This system can be used for any school activity which may need it. James Bueide, in the Public Relation‘s office, now has the public address system and anyone wanting to use it may ask him about it. It is necessary to mention this because many events which have been held in the gym should have used the system. Pep fests, Home» coming doings, and ice skating parties and other such activities should use this school facility.

Head, ing the Eagles' attack was Virg Gehring, Bruce Johnson and Don Reimer. This could be called a team victory, everyone played and almost everyone scored. The game‘s scoring started slow for both teams but the Eagles soon started moving and jumped ' to a lead. A lead of 6'10 points was kept throughout the game. Laurie Balzar showed much of last year‘s driving form and Bruce Johnson, Don Reimer and Dave vHagert did some hitting from far out. Jim Kottom looked excepv i tionally good no rebounds.

From all information, this statement is a fact. Wheaton has a record of four wins out of five contests thus far this year. These games have been played against top flight opposi- u'on so Wheaton should be in good form for the Augsburg game. Wheaton opened their sea- son with a 63 to 58 victory over Chicago Teachers and followed up with wins oVer Loyola of Chi. cago and Elmhurst. The Wheaton quint then dropped a 62 to 64 de- cision to Lake Forest for their only defeat. In their last contest Wheaton defeated Texas College 77 to 69. The most impressive win for Wheaton was the 62 to 60 win over Loyola. Loyola is the team which beat Wisconsin 54 to 51 and lost to Minnesota by 10 points. Wheaton College is located in Wheaton, Illinois, and is consid' ered one of the hotbeds of col’ lege basketball. Gi'. Dodds, one of America‘s top long distance track men, and known as the “Flying Parson", is coach of the Wheaton College track team which is rated one of the best in the small colleges. Most of the Wheaton basket— ball players are homegrown. That is. they are natives of Illinois‘ high school basketball. This will be the first meeting between Wheaton and a .Minnesota Col’ lege Conference team, so it would be difficult to make any compari» sons. Anderson Pessimistic 0f Auggie Quintet Hamline has, by far, the best team in the conference this year, said Eagle Coach Ernie Anderson recently. “Except for the Pipers, the con- ference is pretty even this year,” he said. “Hemline has 6 ft. 7 in. Jim Fritsche and 6 ft. 6 in. Paul Smaagaard, who are rally going to make it rough for the rest of us"’ "The game with Wheaton will be our toughest game of the sea» son before we start playing con ference teams," Ernie remarked. “They have a 6 ft. 2 in. center who can jump as if he were 6 ft. 5 in. They have an exceptionally good team.“ Asked about the Eagles’ possi- bilities this year, Ernie was quite pessimistic. “If everyone else also loses about four or five games, we’ll have a chance to be up there.” Oops! Everything but the ball! Auggie Virg Gehring and Norseman Paul Sherry baflleit out. Augsburg lnvaded, Defeated by Norsemen for Second Loss, 56-47 Invading Augsburg from De' corah, Iowa, the men from Luther College put on a late game semi! stall to slow the Eagles from Augsburg and win 56 to 47. The game opened with the Eagles cold as ice. Luther drew away with a small lead but soon the boys began to score and throughout the first half the game’s score see-sawed back and forth until the half ended with Augsburg leading 31 to 26. The second half continued as the first half with first oneteam ahead, then the other. With less than 10 minutes to be played, Luther began to stall. At this point Augsburg iced over and could not score from any place on the floor. They missed try upon try at the free throw circle. Lit! tle by little Luther drew away and took the game with them. Laurie Balzar led the team with 10 points and was sensational. He was hampered all through the sec- ond half with four fouls and he still played a hard, pressing game. Ver Gehring had a good night, scoring a point. Bob Ott looked very good on rebounding, as did Jim Kottom. Luther did what more teams will do against Augsburg this year —use the fast break. Augsburg will also have to learn the de» fense against this. BY THE WAY.. . P.B. Hopes High . . . IN WAA By Audrey Fraasch Practice sessions for the Augsv burg girls‘ Park Board team are already underway. Each Tuesday and Thursday after W.A.A., Mrs. Peterson puts her squad through its drills. The enthusiasm shown by every girl makes up for the small size of this year's group. Mrs. Peterson is of the opinion that the “prospects are good and hopes are high." Guards Harriet Hall” and “Myrt” Olson, and forward De- lores Erickson are the only Verer- ans back from last year‘s cham- pionship team. At present “Myrt” is practice teaching. She will be back to play after the Christmas holidays. When the girls swing into ac‘ tion in January the forward sys' tem with the exception of Der lores, will be new and untried. With Harriet and “Myrt” to form the backbone, the guarding will be able to hold its own. By the way, there is still a shortage of W.A.A. members. it a altound 6/16 Conference 20 no At Macalester, coach Dwight Stuessy has five let, termen returning from last year's squad to help him build a contender for the top spot. Of these five men, coach Stuessy says that only captain Dick Stan- ton is sure of a position. Beside 6 ft. 4 in. forward Dick Stanton, the re turnees are Frank Johnson, guard; Bill “Red” Gold will and Bruce Engeswich, who play either guard or forward, and center Ted Gregory. Up from the frosh squad are Curt Johnson, 6 ft. 5 in. center; Ray Montieth, Roger Anderson and Lee Marquart, who play either forward or guard. Two top freshmen candidates who might help the varsity this year are Bob Hedstrom, 6 ft. 2 in. for- ward, and Justian Weeldreyer, 6 ft. 41/2 in. center. Height and experience are the two main worries of coach "Jake" Christiansen at Concordia. Five let‘ termen are back from last year’s squad, including Captain Bob Peterson, Whitey Johnson, Ken Sevr erud, Jim Gabrielson and Red Davidson. Don Sme' John Garland stad, John Groven and Mac Redmen, sophomores, also saw considerable action last year. Ken Severud, 6 ft. 5 in., is the tallest man in the squad. Outside of him, there are few who stretch over six feet.. With height being an important factor in the conference this year, the Cobbers will be at a slight disadvantage in that category. John Ruhnke, St. Mary's center, took scoring honors among the conference schools, by pushing Falls, 65—38. through 32 points as he led his team to 3. 65'51 win over Eau Claire Teachers. St. Thomas’ number one and two punches led the Tommies over St. Norbert's 8165, with Bauer dumping in 28 and Sandstrom 27 points. It was Lloyd Thorgaard with 26 points and Bob Gussner with 15 as Hamline very politely pol’ ished off Pepperdine of California, 6453.

Among the boys and girls of grade school age the mention of Christmas stirs in their minds memories which seem to be magical. They think of a sled, a train, a doll and with these thoughts, 3 half imaginary, half real Santa Claus comes to life. They are cautioned to be good because Christmas is coming. They are cajoled out of evil because Christmas is coming. - But these are magic words, not only for the younger of our population but also for the merchants and businessmen. The prospect of Christmas institutes a time of feverish activity that starts before Thanksgiving and does not reach its zenith until a day or two before Christmas Day. To the college student, these words mean vacation; going home to family and friends and the concomitant joys of those relationships. Christmas is coming and you and mill lions and millions of people are preparing for it. Cards have been sent, invitations have been extended, vacation is soon here: Christmas is coming. And amidst all the agitation, Jesus, the lowly Nazarene stands looking on; outside the pale of preparation, not wanted, not sought. There is necessarily bound up with our way of preparing for Christmas the need for the warning Jesus gave to His disciples some time ago now. “You must be ready; for the Son of Man is at an hour you do not expect.” If it is easy to forget our Lord whose first coming we seek to celebrate, it is at least as easy to be un- prepared for the time that the Son of man will come again. Jesus is coming again. So He has prom! iscd. He has not said when. But in that hour He would have those who would be His servants to be ready and waiting for Him. To be ready when the Son of Man comes is not an escape mechanism, cutting yourself off from relationships with other people. To be ready is to rely on the grace of God through Jesus His Son. . rm: Apoggugggggg, _ Greeting from Dr. Christensen 1 2; 7w pared for another season.

Bernhard Christensen From our Readers We Hear: Letter to the Editor from Al Hanson - In the last “Echo”, Quentin Goodrich attacked the UN. (namely American Sui preme Command in Asia). It is folly to call the greatest Asiatic military tactician of modern times, General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, “blind and stupid". Since his graduation from West Point, MacArthur has had nearly half a cen' tury of experience as an army olhcer. In World War I, he distinguished himself in France with the famous. Rainbow Divi' sron. In spite of his much discussed egotisti' cal personality, as the Allied Supreme Pacific Commander in World War 11, his brilliant strategy drove the Japanese from the very doors of Hawaii to the shores of Japan itself. His occupation forces did more in five years to instil a. sense of Democracy in the Japanese eople than half a century of the “Open lfior Policy“. In less than five months they organized a U. N. army of many nations and drove the North Koreans from Pusan to t e Yalu River. Then the Chinese Commur nists intervened. , No, Mr. Goodrich, General MacArthur and his supreme Command are far from “blind and stupid". O O I Letter to the Editor from G. I would like to thank Mr. Hanson for clearing up the point that General Macr Arthur is not “blind and stupid.“ No doubt he could quote figures such as Mac- Arthur has an I.Q. of 200 and that his- eyes are rated at 20/20. These aren't actual facts. First of all, his argument is irrelevant to the matter discussed. I pointed out if our military leaders didn‘t see the move in Korea they were “blind and stupid". i We can not say for certain right now whether they saw it or not. I also stated that military leaders were responsible, not specifically MacArthur. While it must be admitted that Mac’ ' Arthur is a great military leader, we must also remember that his ego (admitted by Mr. Hanson) has in a sense “blinded” him so that he did not see the weaknesses in the Phi ippines, Korea, and in crossing the 38th parallel. (These weaan are brought out in the complete answer.)—-Ed. Getting back to the matter discussed in my article which was that the leaders made a mistake if they did not foresee the enemies tacfics. Mr. Hanson has failed to show in any way that this is a false assumption or that there is any falsification of facts so we must conclude that he agrees with the main thought of my article. I would really like to thank you, Al, for doing what every wide'awake studen should do and that is ready critically an state your own opinions backed up with good reasoning. Bylolannon . Amen: ‘ u.

Have you ever watched the people as they watch the ame? One boy in particular to watch this year is Paul Balerud. He really looks good as he sits by the sidelines and grunts every time some one shoots a short shot or tears what little hair he has when Balzer doesn't make his usual drive!in-thru'the-whole'team shot. Another interesting character to watch is Charley Luhn. Here is a man with enthusiasm enough for the whole school, and he is really trying to share it too, if you've noticed. When he isn't shouting orders to Kottoin, Balzer, or Ernie Anderson, he is heckling the posing team.

His talk conr tained the following important points and six new emphases. The aim of the student place- ment oflice is to assist all graduat- ing seniors and alumni to get the best possible job for which they are prepared. The six new em- phass are the following: to get more of the graduating seniors and alumni to register with the placement bureau; to direct the energies of placing a higher per- centage of graduates; to function more actively in vocational guid- ance; to use the placement bureau as a public relations office; to co- operate with other employment agencies; and to conduct a follow- up study to find out how well the placements are getting along in their jobs. After Christmas a one»page questionnaire will be sent to all graduating seniors regarding their specific job aims. All seniors are requested to watch for this ques tionnaire.

By Cami Ware Stop for just a minute in the mad Christmas rush” ing (you probably need a minute‘s rest anyway) and ask yourself, “Just what does Christmas mean to me?" Christmas means that Christ came into the world. wreath hung in the window brings to our minds Christmas. To each of us as we think of Christmas will come memories of it in our own home. Christmas Eve in my home begins with a lutcfisk and lefsa supper. That evening the children volunteer to help with It means that God out of his great love sent a Savior to save us. Christ’s coming into the world brings to our eyes scenes of a lowly manger with a bright star overhead, of shepherds in a field, and of angels of the Lord shining forth in the glory of God and tell- ing the good news. Other scenes come to us, as we think of Christ mas. We see carolers going about and hear them and realize that no other songs seem so full of joy. Christmas to us includes decorations—a tree hung with various ornaments. Mother Nature supplies us with snow to complete our decorations.

Advocates Social Science Club By Yvonne Bagley Is there going to be a social sci' ence club at Augsburg? This ques' tion you have to answer your' self. The International Relations Club deferred the question of ore ganizing into a social science club, until its meeting on January 4th. We would like to make it the responsibility of the individual student interested in either phase —the social science or the inter- national relations emphasis—to come out and vote at this meet- ing. Today when the whole area of human relations is so tremendous' ly important if we are to maintain peace, we urge all students inter! ested in social science with a world view to take an interest in this or, ganization. Staff, Faculty Adopt Social Security Plan At a meeting last week, the Augsburg faculty and staff voted on the question of Social Secur‘ ity. The two'thirds majority, nec' essary for official acceptance of the program, was obtained with sevr enty»four assenting votes and five opposing. , Augsburg has had an insurance and retirement program with the Lutheran Brotherhood, but up to the present only twentyrfive per cent of the employees have been included under its provisions. It is likely that this program will also be continued but in a more limited form now that Social Se- curity has been adopted. dishes, hoping in that way to speed up the process. After supper, we settle ourselves comfortably in the living room and from the second chapter of Luke hear, “And it came to pass in those days . . years to come, we forget the gifts we received after- " In wards, but we do not forget that message. Christmas is the time of “Peace on earth, good will toward men." Let us not forget the needy, the sick, the old, or those in Korea. Nor let us forget them when Christmas is over. Let the Christmas spirit reign throughout the year. Christmas is a time of giving, but let us always remember the greatest gift—Jesus Christ. Our hearts should be filled with joy, thanksgiving, and prayer.

Opseth, Professor of Music at Augsburg College. He is reported at the time of this writ’ ing as having had a relapse folv lowing a period of general imr provement after his recent heart attack. His music classes and the dirccr tion of the choir are being taken care of by other faculty members on a temporary basis. Mr. Sateren is directing both the Choir and Choral Club for the various Christmas activities. Beginning next week Mr. Thut will conduct Mr. Opseth's music classes for the present. The faculty is also try ing to obtain assistance from the University. Mr. Opseth’s plans for the fu- ture are still very indefinite. He has been working very hard, especially lately, to prepare the choir for the various musical pro- grams in which they are to partici- pate during the Christmas season. Many prayer requests have been made and many prayers have been said asking for his quick and full recovery. Twelve Auggie Seniors In College Who's Who Names of 12 Auggics were re: cently released from the chis trar‘s office as those selected from Augsburg to be printed in “Who‘s Who in American Col- logos and Universities. Those ser lected were James Andress, James Christopherson, Gerald Davis, Clarence Framstad, William Halt verson, Marvel Moe,‘ Jeanette Nielsen, A. Richard Petersen, Robert Sletta, Erika Staub, Kath' ryn Thorsgaard, and Stanley Toussaint. Five of the twelve are either present or past prexies of schoo organizations. Stan Toussaint is this year’s student body president, Dick Pe» tersen is president of the 1951 senior class, Jim Christopherson leads the Luther League, and Erika Staub heads up the lntema- tional Relations Club. Last year’s Evening Classes Commnnity Services By Beverly Anderson Augsburg College plans to hold the first of a series of evening classes the fourth week in Jan‘ uary. This project is being under taken as a service to the commur nity. Contacts are being made through the L u t h e ra n Free Churches and other neighboring churches of the Twin Cities to obtain participants for the classes. In the discussion stage is the matter of giving credit for these courses. There is a possil ility that regular college credit will be giv- en. Fees will not exceed $10 for each course. Subjects to be offered arc not definitely scheduled at the time of this writing. Suggested courses of study are home economics, busi' ncss relations, international rel lations, .md communications. These plans, indefinite at this point. are being carried to com' pletion as quickly as possible, An excellent opportunity is open for those persons who wish to occupy their spare time in a useful, educational manner. Augs- burg has not, in past years, at- tempted a program'such as this. Cooperation and enthusiasm on the part of the student body will contribute toits success. Applications forlthcsc courses should be mailed to the Registrar of the College as soon as possible. League of Womenn-Voters was under the direction of Marvel Moe. . Jerry Davis was awarded the Keith Hoffman Memorial Ath' lctic Scholarship for 1950. Bill Halverson and Kathy Thorsgaard were European SPANNERS dur' ing the past summer. Jim Andress is editor of this year‘s Augsburg' ian. Bob Sletta is religious director of the student council this year, while Clarence Framstad played varsity football.

By Janice Anderson If you‘ve been wondering where half of the senior class has been lately, we‘ll give you a clue. You see, it‘s that time of the year again when the teaching majors take off to do a little practising. N.S.A. On December first, second and third the regular fall N.S.A. Rev gional Convention was held at St. Cloud Teacher's College. Nine Augsburg N.S.A.‘ers attended: Esther Hoversten, Biff Aune, Roger Nelson, Evelyn Alfsen, Donna Zimmerman, La Von Paulr son, Rudy Berntsen, Eugene An— dcrson (regional chairman) and LeRoy Anenson. Friday evening, following regis- tration, a short welcome was giv- en by Dr. Headley, president of St. Cloud Teacher’s College. Bob Trmnot, regional chairman, gave an intr ctory speech in which he emphasized the fact that as students, we are potential leaders and it is up to us to prove to our misinformed neighbors that we are ambassadors of peace. The evening was concluded by a social hour with excellent opportunity to make new acquaintances with oth- er students. They have the privilege of choos' ing their own school. It is then up to the committee to approve the choice and contact the school. A couple of weeks ago twenty'four students came back from a four! week teaching spree. Last week twenty/six more went out on the great adventure. Don’t be too hasty about envy- ing their vacation from studies. They are expected to keep up with other classes as well as possible. The student assumes all respon- sibility of the teacher in the class' room. The system for grading is a very complicated process. Each practice teacher is asked to par' ticipate in some student activity and write a report on it. They are asked to hand in each day's class lesson. and a report from the critic teacher. After this, Mr. Bertness brews it all together and comes up with a grade for the "vacation". The highlight of the conven' tion was a panel discussion on hu- man relations. The panel consist! ed of a Negro, a Jew, a Japanese, and an Indian, each an authority in their own racial problems, and a professor from Macalester. Sunday afternoon following the final plenary session the Auggies returned with a new spirit, en' thusiasm and optimism. , HITTING THEHIGH Norsf Thirty voices from the Aug!» burg Choir have been selected to sing in the Maurice L. Rothsl child»Young Quinlan Tea Room. The group made their first ap' pearance Wednesday night. They also sang last night and will sing again tonight, from six to'seven o'clock. They are singing the old familiar Christmas carols. lDo You Know?l By Hilde Aasen Did you kids know that Morton Hall is named in honor of Ivliss G e r d a Mortensen? Originally Morton Hall was called East Hall which provided a residence for the Professors Sverdrup and Ofte' dahl. When co'education started at Augsburg the girls who took over East Hall decided they wanted a new and different name for their habitat. This new name caused some controversy on the part of Miss Mortensen as the girls were determined to name the dorm in her honor. “If Carlton can have an Evans Hall after Miss Evenson, why can‘t we have a Morton Hall after Miss Mortensen?" was their plea. « « Approaching swiftly is the day we have been looking forward to for so many weeks—CHRIST’ MAS. It seems that the angel of good tidings and glad hope has overcome our Augsburg College Clubs and Societies and they are seeking an outlet for expression. What place could be better for their wishing of joy and peace than our own school paper where all may read and take to heart?

N.S.A. COUNCIL “The NS.A. Council wishes for you a most blessed Christmas and a New Year of happiness—a hap- piness that comes as a result of service to your fellowmen and to your God." REPUBLICAN CLUB “And all us aboard the ‘ele‘ phant‘ desire to convey to all spec! imens of Augsburg nativehood an exceedingly festive Yuletide and a joyful and blessed New Year.“ DEMOCRATIC CLUB “The Democratic Club wishes to extend its greetings for the Christmas mson to the Augsburg student body and faculty and de- CLUBLICITY By Mary Bakkeu sire for all a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.” MISSION SOCIETY “The Mission Society is enjoy- ing a good year.

We desire your prayers for the Mission Society and our Mis' sion Festival April 58 and our special project of giving $600 for support of missions. Carry the Christmas greetings from the Mission Society to your homes." MALE CHORUS A greeting and an announce- ment from the Male Chorus— “Today is the day you have been looking forward to.

Faculty Studies For a number of years the Augsburg faculty has made stud‘ ies of specific aspects of our col» lege program. This year the gen, eral subject is, "Some Basic Prob' lems of Christian Higher Educa' tion", particularly as it applies to Augsburg. The plan is the preparation of a number of papers or addressu to be given at Faculty Studies meetings from December to April. The first topic was presented on December 6. Rev. C. J. Carl— sen presented the topic, “Educav tion for Life in the Church". \ These are some of the problems that were discussed: Should there be checking on Church attend! ance of individual college stur dents? What provision should the Christian college make for the honest doubter? . Threeway Service 237d and RIVERSIDE AVES.

Some of the pertinent questions which were brought out were: Is there an ofl'campus group at Augsburg? Can‘t anything be done against religious intolcrr ance? How are we gomg to at! tract non»Christians? and Who is a Christian and who is not a Christian? The question of dancing was also brought out. Some students were formd to be in favor of it, especially folk dancing, but they also out the conflicting position of church support. It is believed that some churches will withdraw their support if the pro gram at Augsburg is ' ' to any extant. The meeting was reluctantly adjourned at 11:10 in order to hold class meeting. The purpose of the convocation was to awaken the Augsburg Stu- dent Body to the seriousness of die existing problem. The Stu1 dens Council, who sponsored the convocation. hoped to arouse the students‘ interest in this question, to start them thinking. and to motivate them to take some ac' tion toward the solving of the problem. Judging by the reaction of the students in the meeting to the panel and the response to the problem as it was presented, it would seem that the students have been definitely awakened. Only time will tell what results the convocation will have on the stu- dent social life at Augsburg.

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

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

Sixteen well organized teams are fighting it out in a double ' n tournament The results of this tournament will place the teams in a league according to their strength. The regular season will not start until after Christmas vacation so the boys will have plenty of time to sharpen their playing skills. Teams to beat this season will be the “Robes”, the “Hustlers”, and the “Yo Yo‘s." Vets on these teams are Don Skunlan d, Tom Straiton, and Dick Petersen for the powerrladen "Rubes." The "Hustlers" have Doc Johnson, Louie Morseth, Bob Johnson, and Don Fladland. The (never die) “Yo Yo's“ look very good again this year. Butch Norton, Tony Johnson, Tom Dahlberg, Harvey Peterson, and Bill Onischuck will fight it out for regular positions. Other vets throughout the league are Roger Vartdal, Elwood Nestvold, Ron! ald Berge, Earl Dreyer, Howie Olson and Pete Hanson. There are three games slated for each week night and there is a possibility of games on Satur— day morning. Students will be the referees, so if you want to see some good rugged basketball, come over to the gym. —Gene Jasper-son Old Homestead Grill WE AIM TO PLEASE IN TASTY FOOD.

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

While they were there they also visited the Oriental In! stitute, near the University of Chicago where they were the first public visitors in the United States to view the Dead Sea Scrolls. These scrolls constitute a recent manuscript discovery and contain a scroll of the book of Isaiah which dates about 100 B. C. This manuscript antedates by about a thousand years any other existing manuscript of Isaiah. THE AUGIIBUDG ECHO Vol. LVI A.W.S.

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

We finally cut it down to 10 men. but ran into dificulty when we tried to decide on a starting five. However. here it is and you may take it for what it‘s worth. (No comments please.) Pad Sod of St. Mary‘s was picked at one forward spot. Saufl led the league in scoring and tied the all time scoring mark set by Hamline's Hal Haskins in [948. ond Thor-gaunt from Hamline is the other forward. Thorgaard was high scorer for the championship winning Pipers. Only 6‘ 3" he can jump like a kangaroo and was one of the conference's best rebounders. Dennis Needing of Gustavus won the center berth. He is only 6‘ 3", but he jumps Morseth Scores High Led by Louu Morseth. the season's high scorer. the Hustlers powered to three straight wins in the seven'team intra‘mural basketball tournament held Monday through Wednes' day. The Hustlers will now participate in the conference tourney to be played at Hamline this weekend, The Hustlers took the championship game from Los Hombres by a 5240 count, with Moraeth ringing up 19 points. Half time score was 20—l1 for the Hustlers. John "Boone" Jackson. Los Hombres‘ hook'shoot- ing pivot, scored ll of his team‘s 20 points. Monday's opening round games saw the Pee'Wees defeat the Stag Party 4341, the Tippers roll over the Woodpeckers 46139. and. in perhaps the best game of the three- day tournament. the Hustlers edge the Rubes 3441. Los Hombres drew a first round bye. In Tuesday evening‘s semi-finals, the fans saw two fairly close games. In the two cont an. the Tippers bowed to the Hullers 01-35 Ind Los Hombres decisioned the Pee- Wees 4540. well and is deadly from all over the court. ond Sendnrosn from St. Thomas gained one of the guard positions. Sandstrom broke St. Thomas” all time scoring mark and was considered one of the best "drivers" in the league. Jim Kottom of Augsburg is given the other guard slot. Jim played with a sixth place club, but stood out with his rugged rebounding and fine defensive work. The second team may be considered by some as being superior to the first team. Look it over and see what you think.

The turnout was not as large as was expected. but as the week progressed. more fellows showed up. Many have not come out due to the fact that work and midrsemesters are now on. The practice was concerned mainly with getting the boys into shape. It consisted of exercising, handball, playing catch, and working at the batting tee.

This short, blonde, good- looking fellow is a p-aduate of Minneth Acadany, whee he played football, hockey, and baseball. He also was member of last year’s hockey team. (By the way—Woody is getting married today. Congratulations!) With a catcher, we should have a pitcher, so we have Bill Onischult, the other member of this battery.
