No better means for this purpose can be obtained than the large organization known as the Mission Society. Working hand in hand with the Mission Society is the Religious Council which has as its aim to make Christ ''dearer'’ to every student. FRENCH CLUB Although the stirring strains of the ''Marseillaise’ seem, for a time at least, to be only fond memories in the hearts of millions of loyal Frenchmen, the song still echoes in the halls of Augsburg. The French Club car- ries on faithfully and efficiently to make the French lan- guage and culture something which is living and real.

Carlson, Editor Russell Quanbeck, Business Manager As the final deadline approached, the Augsburgian office became a place where coke bottles and sandwiches lay piled with sport action shots and faculty copy. The editors could not begin to sup- ply the printers and engravers with ma- terial fast enough. There was always that question, ''Is that all you have now?" Many who are not acquainted with the publication of an annual might be tempt- ed to say, ‘But there can't be much work on an annual, if only comes out once a year. To these people the staff says, Have you ever tried to publish an an- nual?” The Augsburg Song, which every Auggie has sung so often in his college days, furnishes the theme, ‘'In Thanks to Him Above. The 194! Augsburgian has tried to picture college life, in all its many phases of despair, joy and hope, lived on a high plane in a spirit of thankfulness to Him above.’ Strom, Somerville, Krohn, Helland, Back Row: Martin, Jacobson Front Row: Blikstad, Kuehnle, Eye, Formo EDITORIAL STAFF Kenneth J.

So it was in the days of the great Shakespeare and Milton and thus it still remains. No, not all achieve that measure of success which those two trail-blazers ac- complished, but many have followed their footsteps and are pro- ducing good literature—something original and stimulating. Fulfilling the role of scribes on the Augsburg campus is the Writ- er's Club which is composed of some fourteen members. This club is essentially interested in creative writing. No two persons claim the same talent, consequently some write sonnets patterned after Milton and Wordsworth while others go off into raptures of en- thusiasm over the beauties in nature. The essayist follows the lead of Francis Bacon and writes dissertations on various thought-pro- voking questions. Then we have the satirist who, like Swift, seeks through his sarcastic remarks to revolutionize a few of the existing conditions. Shakespeare and Milton are gone, but their works live after them. The Writer's Club changes in membership trom year to year, but the same high standards which the great masters have laid down are being upheld and made manifest in each year's publication of the Writer's Club, namely ‘The Dial.’ Mabel Nelson Dial Editor STUDENT HANDBOOK ‘I'm sorry, but | can't give you that phone number. Why don't you try the student handbook.” This little conversation gives us the best answer to the question, ‘What is the purpose of the stu- dent handbook?'' A school composed of 494 students makes it rather difficult for the individual student to possess any complete knowledge of his fellow-classmates. To prevent the inevitable chaos which would result from every student vainly seeking to find an address or phone number, the student body published a small book with all the students’ names, addresses, and phone numbers. ms Lowell Formo Handbook Editor 60

Each year finds new faces replacing those who grad- uate, but the same fineness which characterizes the Augs- burg Choir is always present to carry on the fame of the organization. This year the organization travelled through a relatively new district and visited such cities as Sioux Falls, S. Dak., Omaha, Neb., Kansas City, Mo., and Chicago, Ill. The tour which lasted two weeks brought many pleasing comments from not only the critics but also the music lovers everywhere. Another musical organization which is rapidly gaining prom- inence is the Augsburg Choral Club under the direction of Norman Myrvik. Appearing several times in the Twin Cities, these songsters have made a favorable impression with those who have heard them. The annual tour of the Choral Club was hailed as one of the most successful ever made by that organization. Prof. Henry P. Opseth and Dr. F. Melius Christiansen

This activity at Augsburg has met with great success in that the keen competition on the campus has produced serious contenders in the regional meet. Providing a means of expression, the oratory division has proven to be a great asset to our school. Each year the call goes out for participants to compete for the cup given by the class of 1918. Interest ran high among the orators this year, since more stu- dents than ever before competed for the finals.

A decision to resume in- tercollegiate competition in football proposes to balance the physical education program. The Augsburg Athletic Department, which has mainwuleed=intercollegiate teams in all other sports during its football dormancy felt that the re-introduction of football was an integral part of the institution's physical education program. The addition had been anticipated for some time. Intercollegiate football has proved to be a very helpful as well as necessary part in giving train- an ing to those who wish to receive a minor in Physi- Richard F. Pautz, Director of Athletics cal Education. | In Augsburg's first attempt at football Dan Elmer, a former Minnesota great, was obtained as coach. Through Elmer's efforts a ''fair'’ season was finished—experienced material being very sparse. When Elmer retired from football to enter business, the services of Coach ‘Bob’ Carl- son, another Minnesota star of championship teams, were enlisted. Under Carlson's reign, the ‘Fighting Auggies’ have made remarkable progress in the ''tough'' Minnesota State College Conference.

Augsburg was called the col- lege without a football veteran because not one of Elmer's men had any previous col- lege football experience and only a few had high school experience. While Elmer was pounding the fundamen- tals of football which he had learned from the famous Bernie Bierman, into his first string of pigskin enthusiasts, Kenny Schmit, assistant coach, was tutoring the second and third squads. Outstanding players in- cluded Red Nelson, "kid brother'' of the Aug star of a few years back; Red Rhodes, 195 pound hard-socking guard; Ed Sedio, a small but capable guard; Roy Gordon, all- around athlete; Irv Nerdahl, powerhouse from Windom; and big Sig Hielmeland from Washington. Bahre and Neve also added their brawn and brains to Elmer's combination. Other ‘green,’ but willing material, included the personalities of Krohn, Gronseth, Thompson, Sorenson, Mil- ler, Johnson, Carlson, Martin, Plotz, and Fauske.

Lack of man-power spelled deteat for the fighting Auggies when they met the champion- ship bound St. Mary's eleven. Again the breaks turned the tide and St. Mary's won, 21 to 7. In the Homecoming game with Macalester, Augsburg was far outweighed and took a stinging defeat on a water soaked field, 26 to 0. In the final game of the season a late Auggie touchdown drive failed and resulted in a narrow 7 to 0 victory for St. John's. Again the Augs' chances had been lessened because of injuries.

Six letter men, which included ''Max'' Bahre, a senior; Phil Helland and Warren Lundquist, juniors; Stanford Nelson, Billy Peterson, and Herman Holten, sophomores; returned to conference competition. Added to this list were Jerrol Fredrickson, Tony Halverson and George Peterson, who were moved up from last season's freshman squad. Art Chiodo was able to play his first year on the varsity as a sophomore. From a very promising crop of freshmen came Marvin Sulz- dort, Carl Germundson, and Charles Held, all former Twin City High School stars. The Augs had a relatively small squad compared with other conference teams—a five foot eleven inch squad average.

Show moreW. ALA Women's athletics at Augsburg center mainly around three maior sports: volley- ball, basketball, and softball. Beginning in the fall of the year, the athletic program presents volleyball as the main interest. When the weather gets colder the volley- ball season gives way to a faster sport, namely, basketball. In connection with this activity an interclass tournament is held. For the third straight year the Junior team, class of '42, came roaring down the stretch to capture the title. The regular season ended in a three-way tie. In the play-offs the Freshmen defeated the Sophomores 11-10. The finals found the Freshmen playing the Juniors. When the final gun sounded the Junior team walked off the floor the victors to the tune of 31-20. With the coming of spring, volleyball, to- gether with softball, becomes the order of the day. Warmer weather brings the women athletes outside for their gymnastic activ- ities. In combination with these major sports, women at Augsburg also engage in numerous other activities such as ping- pong, shuffle board, skating, archery, and badminton. In this manner a busy season of athletic activity is spent. Need some © help girls? "Frankie" serves one Back Row: R. Gu- dim, E. Olson, W. _ Tyvol, D. Quamme, M. Parbst, L. Sever- son, M.
