They finished right behind powerful St. Thomas in the above meets, and held victories over such out- standing schools as Hamline, Macalester, La Crosse, Wisconsin Teacher and Carleton. In the MAIC Championships, Jesperson and Fraasch placed second and fourth respectively, while the Auggie team was taking second and in the State Open Jesperson and Fraasch duplicated their feat, both bettering the old conference record in doing so.

Its purpose is manifold, serving to create and strengthen the ties of Christian fellow— ship among those preparing for the Lutheran ministry. Besides providing opportunity for the statement and discussion of student affairs as regards classwork and social activities, the So— ciety provides for a deepening and enrichment of friendships which will continue throughout an entire lifetime. In addition to the regular weekly meeting, various dinner meetings are scheduled through- out the school year at which time well—qualified pastors and educators are invited to present pre- viously assigned topics, and to lead the discussions. In the line of social activities, the traditional Seminary skip day and the annual banquet for the students and their guests are welcomed and long remembered events. l i l Show less

The game was hard fought and both sides were willing to settle for a tie when the game ended. Like all the games. the line play was hard and almost \‘icious at times. At St. John‘s. the Auggies filled the air with passes and put up a stubborn battle before they were finally subdued by the score of 27-12. The St. Olaf game was played hard and except for a few disastrous lapses. the Auggies could have easily won. The Augs actually dominated play throughout the game. only to have St. Olaf complete two long passes in the first half. These were enough however. and St. Olaf won 14-6. In the homecoming game at Nicollet Park. the St. Mary's Redmen became the victims of a 27-6 shellacking while the Augs celebrated their first homecoming victory in some time. Although definitely undermanned. St. Mary’s played a hard game and the Augs retaliated by playing a bruising game also. The play got rough at times and could have easily gotten out of hand. Bob Howells played outstanding ball all season. and was awarded with a place on the Minneapolis Star All Conference team. He, together with Jim Kottom and “Nails” Norton. made the Auggie line one of the most vicious and feared in the conference.

T LAST we could call ourselves "upper-classmen"! We were through being called "little Freshmen” and always being at the bottom of every list. We were on the second step of our college ladder at Augsburg. During the past year our most important work lay in the initiation of the Freshmen. It was fun to give out orders instead of receiving them as we had done last year. The first Friday of school was the day set aside for this occasion. Initiation ended with a party Saturday night. A program consisting of a speech by Prof. Soberg and several numbers revealing Freshman talent, was given. We have come to realize what Augsburg really stands for during our first years here. \We have tried to enter whole—heartedly into the programs and activities of our school, and how we love it! May our class add to its already vast number of resources and aid in the furtherance of the Kingdom of our Lord and Savior. "In all thy ways acknowledge him, And be will direct tby paths.” Prov. 3:6.
