Its purpose is, through the maintenance of a press service, to further the inter- ests of Augsburg College by advertising it in every desirable manner. Thus the Press Club helps Augsburg to receive a great amount of publicity. Membership in the Press Club is open to all college students who have had training in journalistic work or who are Efficient typists. The membership at no time, however, is to exceed twelve. An adviser is chosen from the English department, in cooperation with whom the club works. Monday evening is set aside for the meeting of the club. Then the "news" is prepared for publication. Special emphasis is placed on articles relating to Augsburg and its students, and special efl‘orts are made to have them printed in the papers of the towns and cities which are here represented by students.

Several more men showed up later so a team could be put into competition with other academies in the Twin Cities. The coaching of the team was taken care of by Norman Flagstad, a Senior in college. He developed a formidable team that displayed a great fighting spirit. Harold Shurson, a guard, was the high scorer of the squad. He is the only senior on the team that will be lost by graduation.

QEunturbia gaotietp When we of today—the theological students, who constitute the membership of Concordia—think back to our pioneer brothers, who long ago organized this society and gave it life and purpose, we can not but be aware of the significance of the name they gave it. 'Concordia symbolizes the source of concord, agreement, and unity of feeling and Interest. ’Surely the founders of our society must have been keenly conscrous of the Vital value of concord in Christian living. “Behold how yood and [zlcamnt it is For brethren to dwell togel/Ier in unity.” What should be more precious and natural than true fellowship among‘the brothers of our Savior, Jesus Christ? This is the fruit we seek to gather from our SOCletY’S activity. That by coming together about common problems and in united Sympathy we might better appreciate and love that work, the Master has designated for each of us to do. We have of late endeavored to extend our contacts with former members of the Concordia, Who are now out in the active work—that work in which we anticipate a part. To attain this we have sought to share the experiences of our pastors by having them come to Augsburg and lecture to us on the many practical problems they meet with in their ministry. ‘ Thus do we hope to receive the larger blessing of an extended fellowship.

Show moreL Large Class gaduates Gastronomical Department Holds Graduation Exercises A very impressive ceremony took place last Friday evening in the Augsburg Tea Gardens when de- grees were conferred upon the graduating members of the Gas- tronomy Department. The efficient toast master gave a very complete survey of the course and impressed the astounded lis- teners with the fact that the grad- uates had thoroughly mastered the intractable science of gastrology. The majority of the degrees pre- sented was that of Magister Gar- con, and to one was given the title Magister Domestique, who had “practiced the practical application of table arrangement and had also served as food analyzer and con- sultant dietician in the Culinary Department.” Mr. Buster Larson was the only one who could qualify for the de- gree as Master of Home Economics cum summa laude. Con dolore the graduating class chanted in harmonious strains the praises of the Gastronomical De- partment of Augsburg.

Seeing a large aggregation of people and cars gathered at Nicol- let and Eighth. they hurried upon the scene, and to their astonish- ment, found a species of Ford hold- ing up the traffic!

The date has not been definitely settled, but it is thought that it will be held on the fifth of June. All of the parents of the incin- bers of the Senior Class will be entertained during the afternoon and evening and will be guests at an informal lunch in the evening. This will give the parents a chance to become better acquainted with each other, and with the members of the class. We have every reason to hope that this first Mother’s and Dad’s Day will be a success and hope that it may become traditional at Augsburg. Reader Proves “Powerful KatrinkaH Madelia, Minn., April 12, 1928.—- “Duds” Jacobsen, reader with the Augsburg Choral Society, proved herself a veritable “Powerful Kat- rinka” when she pulled out the light fixtures as she was trying to turn out the lights in her room here, after the concert. Second Alto Saves the Day Director Loses Gown Adrian, Minn., April 14, 1928.— There was considerable excitement among members of the Choral So- ciety this evening when it was found that the director had lost her gown.

Seated—Mclnerny, Berg, Hostager, Coach Skurdalsvold, Hanson (Capt), Erdahl, Tjon. @ym 013mm The' Gym Team, the oldest athletic organization at Augsburg, has been making remarkable strides in recent years. Since Magne Skurdalsvold ‘became coach three years ago, great progress has been made on the various apparatus. Mr. Skurdalsvold was formerly captain of the University of Minnesota Gym Team and is the greatest gymnast the Northwest has ever produced. Unlike the other athletic activities, the Gym Team does not receive much publicity. All the work is done behind closed doors and an occasional exhibition is the only evidence that the Gym Team exists. But. this does not minimize the benefits of gymnastics. A well—rounded man must have perfect coordination of brain and muscle and in no other sport is this developed to so great an extent as it is in gymnastics. No other organization functions duringr the entire school year. The members, there- fore, are in good physical condition during the whole school term. Up to the present time there has been no inter—collegiate competition in gym— nastics. That is a thing to be hoped for. If a college conference were formed on the same basis as the other major sports, Augsburg would be well represented. Com- petition between the colleges would arouse the enthusiasm of the students and cause more to take part. At present there are entirely too few who reap the benefits of this interesting sport. Under the able leadership of Coach Skurdalsvold, great things may be expected from the Gym Team in the future. Let us hope that the Gym Team will be the largest athletic organization on the campus. “The greater the obstacle the more glory in overcoming it."—l\/IOLIERE. wwwflwwwflfigwfig 11927 l928 smmzsasasamama Page 90 Show less

Lillehei, Sorkness, C. Johnson, Klonglan. éetunh Qtahemp The members of the Sophomore class are few in number, but ambitious and lively. The class has in its midst only one girl. It is composed of members from Minnesota and Iowa. Although the ambitions and the aspirations of the class are varied, yet it has become imbued with the Augsburg spirit, which is the spirit of progress. As we progress through the two remaining years, we hope to develop that spirit, and work for the welfare of the school and its ideals. Then, too, there is the hope, or the vision of a college course. This acts as an incentive to spur us on to attain to that which will enable us to understand life a little better. We realize that school is but a part of life’s highway, but we wish to make the most of it. Each year sees our ideal a little closer, but at the end of the year, We also see the pathway of this earthly life greatly diminished. Realizing this, we are spurred to do all that is within our power for some worthy cause. If we succeed only to the extent that we have ability, then we shall not have lived in vain. §E§E§E§E§Z§Z§E§B§E§E§B 1927 1928 @fiflfifififififigfififigfigfififi Page 41 Show less
