W “7% Morris Johnson, and David Ryklian. under control for the Mission Festival, April l7-20, ore Ado Moe Anderson, Gory Rust, ‘And The Glory Forever’, L. L. Production, Scheduled Friday On Friday, April 4th, a cast chosen from the Luther League will present the play, “And the Glory Forever." by H, Marie Ben- son. The play is particularly writ' ten for young people and finds its setting in a typical Lutheran cont gregation. Bob Kling and his mother had drifted far away from the influence of the church——not because they wanted to, but be' cause they no longer had enough money to continue as outwardly respectable members. But through the devoted guidance of Rev. Gardner the young people of the church are led to see that they cannot continue to call them, selves Christians and still exclude the Klings from their church, The play ends with all kneeling at the altar as the Klings are accepted back into the church. The cast includes: Beverly Orndahl, Agnes Twedt, Sam Syse, and Mario Pe- termn. Following the program in SCI' ence Auditorium the group will go to Siyertsen Recrcation Room for games, lunch, and the film, "Trial at Jerusalem". “Take Up Thy Cross" is the theme for the Luther League mid- week on Thursday, April 3rd. Several student speakers will give talk: that relate to this general Lenten theme. The Luther League "Brick Prolcct" now has reached nearly 5450.00. Plans have been made for the entire League to Visit the "Brick Project" Church on May Sophomores, take notice!

Now, at random do I pick a fool; But with so many prospects—how shall I start? To leave out one of these would be cruel! Let‘s see, I think I see one now Who bendeth low before the box. (I think she seeks to find some malc?—-mail), But as my dear contemporary said, “What fools ye mortals be!" And now within the classroom do we find, An eager, but a foolish mind, As hopelessly he seeks to grasp Somc common knowledge to re mind Him of the subject of the course in which he sits. Oh, how in great pcrplcxity his brow he knits. So now we move dining hall.

(0, bloody sight! 0, terrible fate! Why rush around at such a rate To eat? When satisfaction is but tempo' rary; Why do it three times, or more, a day? Why not devise a simpler way - As does the dog, who eats but once?) We wander now into the gym, As we again must find a fool; And there before us does appear A likely victim for our ridicule.

And, now I meditate upon this sad attempt Which did defy the meter and the foot; I only hope you were not bored, Or that I did but prove myself, the Fool! How to Cut Without 3 Cut Thcre have been frequent cries of late coming from students faced With the "elimination process". In order that these students might lead a more pcrfect life Without living in fear of too many class cuts, we have devised the “scissorless systemuino cuts, We have four "colorful" foolproof methods of cutting classes Without a cut, I. The “green” way—Report of illness is most appropriate for this occasion. For such diseases as flu, bad colds, or anything else influential, there is an added benefitga free can of "health fee" juice. 1. The “black” wayV—Upon entering the classroom, joyfully bounce to the front of the room and hold a brief but pertinent conversation With the instructor and then plunge to the back row to take a seat. In the heat of discussion grease body liberally and slide out the door on hands and knees. 3. The shotgun method—oops! Sorry, we haven‘t tested this one yet. 4. The “white’I way—Just as the class is about to start, provoke one of your fellow classmates to anger. When he utters his first insult, slash back with a blackboard eraser chok full of chalk. Recruit one or two allies and commence with this smoke screcn effect. A few added comments whispered into various ears might add to the dlS‘ pcrsal of a bit more dust. At the peak of battle, dash for the door and you are free! (Precaution: This method should not be used if the classroom is above the ground floor.

Over 1,200 student musicians throughout the state will compete in piano contests, and about 450 students from the Twin Cities area competed at Augsburg on Saturday. Anyone from the primary grades through the age of twenty! one may compete in these con! tests provided they have been reg' istered by their teacher. The reg! istration fee is $1. The contestants competed in several classes begin' ning with the primary and pro— grossing to the artists. The artist group does not compete, but just performs. The students were re' quired to select one number to present from a given choice of three or four. The contest at Augsburg was held in three different rooms with 'a group of three judges in each room. The judges were piano teachers judging in any area in which none of their own stude were participating. Those who won rankings here were given cer- tificates of merit which entitle them to take part in the Ten- Piano Recital, given annually at the University of Minnesota in conjunction with the yearly con- vention of the Minnesota Music Teachers’ Association. In clfirge of the local arrange, ments were Mr. Sateren and Mrs. Thur, assisted by several music majors here at Augsburg. By Knuth Tuned and idolatry as used here refers to the worship of images.

WADS By Audrey Wan-lid Of course we all know that Easter is the Christian spring fes' rival commemorating the Resur- rection: but did you know that to ancient Norsemen the term is de rived from Ostara, the divinity of Spring; who was welcomed in a festival of celebration on her annual return. This festival. called Ostara or Eastre (whence Easter) was especially the season of new birth: and from it arose the sym' bols of the Easter egg and of the Easter bunny. All the customs or folkway which we follow at Easl (er time had their beginnings in those ancient days. And as all customs have a beginning, we may wonder when and how Eas' ter vacation originated. Well, I don‘t know either, but as long as we're having one I'll not be particular. Happy Easter! 9.. Was I mentioning spring with all this snow on the ground? It seems that over at Morton Hall Audrey Fascia and Arlene Rein~ ertson have not forgotten that the season for making snowmen is over. They set up a miniature snowman in Beryl J ‘5 room and upon her arrival home a min' iature (.7) snowball fight ensued! ovo Here is a note of interest to some of the upper classmen: “Myrt” Olson and Paul Hoplin have announced their engage' ment.

They will join with the LSA students for an evening of worship and fellowship. The committee arranging this is Put Eggen, Florence Helland, CIrl Jensen and Lowell Kleven. The class is also making plans for an outing to be held on May 10. At the recent Class meetings the sophomores took first place in the attendance race. Prexy Trel' stad offered a door prize and about fifty students attended. When the time came for the drawing. Clin- ton Peterson reached in the hat and pulled out a card with the name “Willie Lump-lamp”. The sophomores looked puzzled as they tried to find this mysterious new member. Jerry Hjelmellnd finally owned up and walked off with the mysterious “hidt'a'way brush". Business Club New Addition Something new has been add- ed! A Business Club has been or' ganized at Augsburg. The first meeting on the organization was held Monday, March 10, at 8 o‘clock, to nominate officers, dis! cuss some objectives for the club, and to plan for future meetings. Oflicers elected were Richard Pearson, president: Roger John- son, vice'president', and Alice Gjudahl, secretary'treasurer. Miss Lund is the adviser for the club. Some of the objectives of the club are: I, to spoan an out! standing business student in a high school; 2, to stimulate busi' ness interest here at school; 3. to ask employers what qualities and standards they require of em ployees; 4, to investigate some of the various job opportunities. The second meeting, Monday, March 24, was in the form of a field trip to the plant and offices of the Star and Trib- une.

To Compete in Full Conference Slate '51:“ Sport Briefs By Bodenuon An unusual situation concern— ing two guys named Bill exists in the Auggie sports scene this spring. First, there is the case concern' ing Bill ' Bill has been Augsburg‘s outstanding pitcher in baseball for the past two seasons, and was destined to be one of the best pitchers in the conference this year. But because of having received money for playing in a game outside of conference play during the season last spring, Bill has been declared ineligible for competition for one year. (Bill is a senior.) Bill Kuross is the other person contributing to this unusual sit- nation. Bill won the state singles championship in tennis last spring, but will not be competing this year because he has used up the four years of athletic competition allowed under conference rules. Thus we have two exceptional athletes in school this year who will not be competing because of eligibility rules. On the brighter side of the sports picture, the prospects for this year's tennis team are very good. With the return of Pee Wee Nyhus and Sonny Knudson, both of whom will be out to win their third letter in tennis, chances are that this will be the Auggies' strongest spring sport representa' tive. Pee Wee worked at the Nicollet Field Tennis Club last summer, and played tennis every day against some of the best com— petition in the city. Sonny may be slowed down for a while because of a foot injury, but will add greatly to the team strength when he is ready to play. The baseball team started 05' cial practice in the gym March 26 , .

Sport-Elimi- Today, April 1, 1952 THE AUGSBUDG ECHO SMSW Bob Johnson Page Three Aussie Athletes Superior to M.l.A.C. Opponents; Join Midwest By Chas. Repercussions continue to rock our campus following the shocking announcement that Augsburg is severing its membership in the Min- nuon Intercollegiate Athletic Conference to join the Midwest Con- ference beginning next fall. This dramatic revelation was made known by Athletic Director Ernie Anderson late last night after a stormy session with the Board of Directors. Coach Anderson explained the decision by saying: “Pr-i- mnrilydfiachangehasbemmndeoopermitiutouseAudreyFn-asch CmmyeartorqslaeeGdiringwhoisarmybound.Girlsm dlowedto, '_r inthe"'L islbeanewertoourprlyen” BY THE WAY... SPRING? W.A.A. This past week the gang has been meandering down to the Club to bowl. By setting our own pins we get to bowl at the reduced rate of 15c a line. You bowling enthusiasts had bet- ter take advantage of this. With spring just around the corner (2') our thoughts have been turning to sports such as loftball and tennis. As soon as weather permits these will be the new activities. Until then we‘ll have to keep the rafters over in the gym ringing by playing ll'ldl’ vidual sports of our own choos' mg. Let‘s keep it all under our has until “Mr. Rubin" decides to come back to this wilderness of now. It'll give us somethmgto dream about while we're plowmg W the snow and slush. C ' and ' ' Pravda Other reasons advanced includ- ed these: tired of acne opponenm year after yur, especially in try- ing to drum up homecclning slo gens; elimination of the trip into the wilderness to ploy Concordia: looser 'i "ly rulu; more lu- crative player subsidintions; and better Twin Cities' sports cover- age. Meanwhile, basketball Captain- elect Don Reimer, refusing to play in corny Iowa, as would be re quired by joining the Midwest, plans to mnsfer to St. Thomas for his senior year of competition. Don chose the Tommies because he feels he will be able to concen- trate solely on basketball, free from female interference. To compensate for Augsburg‘s secession. College has inked a ten'year pact with the MIAC and today announced that Jim “Tiger” Kotxom has signed as head football and basketball coach! _ So long, Hamlme, Camus. and the rest! It‘s been so good to know ya! APRIL FOOL! When Old Man Winter finally melts his icy paw, the Auggies have a full spring sport schedule ahead of them. Members of the baseball team have been working out in the gym and over in the U. of M. fieldhouse for about a week. The squad has nine retum' ing lettermen from last year's team which finished second from the bottom in conference stand! ings. Graduation left big holes to be filled, especially in the infield. New men who are expected to help fill these gaps are “Swede” Swenson, Phil Gronseth and John Fredetidtson in the infield; Paul Munson, Ray Henjum, Ron Welde, pitchers, and Jerry Fuller- ton, catcher. In the conference St. Thomas and Hamline are ext pected to be two of the stronger teams. The Augs open their sear son playing Hamlin: here on April 18. This year‘s home games will be played at the Parade Stat dium and Nokomis field. ‘Edor feels that the succass of this year‘s team depends much upon the play of the frosh and new men. Dave Hagert will hcad this year‘s track entry. Other returns ing lettermen are Bob Young, Jim Hanson, and Lyle Young. New men are expected to round out the team. Two letter winners. Leon Radde and Glen Carlsen, are the only rc' turnees from last year‘s golf team. Radde will be the student coach of this year‘s team. LeRoy Nyhus will be the stu' dent coach of the tennis team. Other returning letter winners are Stan Benson and Sonny Knudson. Anyone interested in going out for any of the spring sports should report to the Athletic of- fice as soon as possible.

The Nelson'Men have tenta’ tive practice games with River Falls, but the recent weather change has dimmed the chances of these games being played, These games were to be played before the Hamline opener, Please, Mr. Sun! by Qua-t At Augsburg April is noted for two things: showers and student government elections. The showers will be dealt with by the weather man, and the students will deal with the student government. In order that you, Joe Blow College, the voter. may better bc able to cast your vote in the coming elections, I would like to present some prejudiced views on this year's student government. Looking at the student council as a hole. no slam meant of course, we see that they have done nothing particularly outstanding, With the exception. perhaps, of last fall's leadership workshop. Opinions concerning the success of even this venture varied from "a WJSIC of time" to “stimulating”. In looking for reasons for this rather lazy attitude I checked the attendance rocords for Council mcctmgs. Thcrc are twenty’eight members on thc Councrl and it [llliL‘S twenty mcm‘ hers to form a quorum. Seven times out of the last fifteen meetings the Council has failed to have a quorum and on one instance there were only eleven members there! No wonder they don't accomplish much. But there are a few faithful membch who attcnd regularly and I would like to commend Rudy Borntson for being thc only muni— bcr with a perfcct attcndancc rccord. Continuing to hmk at individual attendance figures thcrc is one mcmhcr of the Council whn has n so six meetings in a row and thcrc arc a numbcr of uthcrs \\'l[h rccnrds that come close to that. It might also be mentioned that during thc period for which the Council has attendancc ligurcs they never had a meeting with pcrfcct .ittcndancc. Taking iust Il’llS .uicndancc rccmd into account is a big hclp in explaining lhc apathetic .Itlltudu Much is found in almost all school organizations. \thn the lmdcrs of our student government fail to shuw L‘nuugh mtcrcst tn rvcn .Ittcnd the Council meetings rcgulnrly thcn how can we expect thc lcsscr lcadl‘rs to do any better“ Tl’llS would probably be A good mm In l’t‘mllltl the newly—clotted Student CUllllCll mcnibcrs 3 \\'L‘ll us the rc-clcrrcd ours. (hilt by accepting the wb of rcprcscn mg Kllt‘ll’ lclhm' studnts they are acccptmg .i rcsponsrbility t0 scn'c wisely and to the host of thcir ability. But attendance isn’t the only place where the student government is in a questionable light. In the department of finance we have a ft-w interesting figures. The money that the student body gets to spend comes right from the pocket of you and me, and because of this we have every right to question concerning how our monty is spent, When this year’s Council went into office last spring one of the first moves that they made was to send ten men on a trip to Washington to push the “wheat for India” program. While no one can deny that this was a good move as far as getting publicity for the school and a vamtion for those who went goes, we would point out that this ven- ture cost you and me, the taxpayer, two hundred and thirty dollars— and this is highly questionable. Another item that could prove to be misuse of money might be that over twenty-five dollars was spent for stationery this year. The Student Council must be doing a lot of letter writing, if nothing else. The last thing I’d like to mention under finance is the fact that the Council had to subsidize the Sophomore class to the tune of thirty dollars. Now this is not only unusual but it sets a precedent for other classes to follow. A final word concerning our chief executive, the President. I think he has done a rather good Job when one considers that up till late November and December he hadn't read the constitution enough to know that last year‘s Council set up a social fund to pay for all'school socials (what are they?) And, what other President would take the time to write up play'by'play accounts of all the basketball games? The Home Class Hears Guest Speakers 0n Marriage and Home Problem Situation Mrs. Dorothy Dyer, head of family life education at the Univ versity of Minnesota, spoke on "Psychological Adjustments in Marriage" to the class in the home on Friday, March 21. She was the first of a group of guest lec— turers to speak to the class for its study of the unit, “Ad)ust' ment in Marriage". Dr. C. R. Wall, the school th' sician, will address the group on "Biological Adjustments in Mar! riage". "How to Meet Crisis" such as death, sickness, desertion, divorce, drinking, gambling, and so forth, Wlll be presented by Rev. West» by, member of the Augsburg su- ciulogy faculty. A local pastor has been invited to address the class on “Aspects of Spiritual Ad)ustment in Mar rage and Establishing .n Chllstldn Home." Rev. Luther Strommen spent an hour With the class discussing how Christianity can be effective in a courtship and home situation. Under the direction of Miss Gada Mortensen, the class is making plans for a field trip to the St. Paul Festival of Nations. King Edor Looks to [Rebuilding] Job Mr. Edor Ndson, likeable Auggie baseball menv tor, in six years at the helm of Auggie nines, has had two state champions, one runnerup, one third, and two clubs that ended in the second dwision, In 1946.

In 1949 his club placed third and in 1950 and 1951 he had those two second division clubs. Some of the most outstanding baseball players Mr. Nelson coached at Augsburg are such classy ' and Ar! Marvin, out— fielders like LeRoy Carlson and Bob Howells, stellar receivers like Bud Leak, Dave Dillon, and Kelly Rods, and pitching stars like Claire Snowmen, Red ' Onisdault.

IN HIS CAMPAIGN, Byron Golie, junior from Sacred Heart, maintains that in his administration he would strive to develop leaders, Encouraging students to take an active part will help them to be capable of playing an active role in a community council made up of representatives from administration, faculty and student body. BY STRIVING to place students on vital committees he would be taking a preliminary step in the formulation of this type of government However the only students who will be working intelligently on these com- mittees are those who have been devel- oped through the efforts of thc current type of student government. “IN ORDER TO get an effective Stu- dent body government wo must work together With the college administrate tion. But to do this each member of the student council must fulfill his respon- sibilities.” This is the core of the campaign of Harlan Christianson, senior from Bagley who will be in the Augsburg seminary next year. He feels that the student can better grasp certain aspi"‘l> of problems which the faculty or admin- islration is not in a position to rcolizc. Harlan also emphasizes that in order for the council to get action eaih incur her of the council must have his specific duties outlined. lf 3 member is not willng to fulfill these duties. l-larliin contends that the council has (-Viry right to expect the resignation of that member.

The remainder of his speech “'III be published in the next issue of the Echo. Academic freedom is the free dam in an educational institution to reexamine old ideas and con— stdcr new ones. Problems arise when an in- structor is accused of deliberately suppressing controversial niateri~ al, of inculcating “dangerous” Joanne Stiles Is One of Committee Studying IAWS Joanne Stiles, president of the AWS, has been appointed a mem- ber of the national committee studying and evaluating the pres- ent structure of the IntercollegL ate Associated Women Students. The appointment was made at the national convention at Michi- gan State university, East Lan~ sing, where Joanne represented the Augsburg organization. Educated women have the re» sponsibility of being real persons. well-informed and active in their communities, convention dele- gates were told. ' Pauline Frederick.

HISTORICALLY, professors have been dismissed because they believed in such things as liberal theology, abolition of slavery or the gold standard Such dismissals have been viewed with alarm by those who hold that for a university to ful- fill its proper role in a free so- ciety. it must be a “center of in- dependent thought" (Hutchins). a place where men seek the truth rather than guard accepted no- tions. TIIIS concept of education is based on certain unprovable tena ets regarding the nature of man and the meaning of human free- dom, equality, justice and law, sometimes called the "democratic charter" (Maritain). Statements like the following reflect this ba- sic faith: 1. Competition among an infi- nite variety of viewpoints is the surest safeguard to truth. 2. The learner is most free if he is encouraged to examine all available alternatives before mak ing his final choice. THE AUGSBURG ECHO $rama .95 flirt u/eeE Figure on tlre Cross' Portruys Mal/em Crucifixion Again and again in our inhumanity to man we crucify Christ. This is the theme of “The Figure on the Cross." the Lenten drama to be presented April 15 and 16 at 8:30 in the music building. The R. H. Ward choric drama is under the direction of Miss Ailene Cole. instructor in speech. Tickets at 60 cents for students and $1 for adults Will go on sale next week. The play depicts the crucifixion. a modern application of the seven last words of Christ and the descent from the cross. Each of the modern scenes shows an example of present day cruelty and ends with one of the words of Christ from the cross. For instance. a refugee woman is forbidden passage and hcr child dies. Angrily she lashes out at those responsible, then realizes that there is no love anywhere. Her speech ends with the not what they do." ' The chorus gives continuity and moan} response to the scenes and ends with l chm of praise. _ Music for a lullaby to be sung by the rem“ mother, Dorothy Larson, was composed by "1-. Leland B. Sateren, professor of music. The drama requires no scenery. Dr. B. .1 Kleven. professor of history and political union, is in charge of the lighting. Colors of the costumes will help the audience interpret the symbolism of the drama. The dark shades mean spiritual death while the lighter! colors symbolize rebirth. R. H. Ward, author of the drama, also wrote “The Holy Family" which was presenbd at Augsburg two years ago.

The rush to complete work by the end of the so: mester will resume Tuesday, April 23. 3. No man‘s personal conviction gives him the right to limit the freedom of other men in the quest for truth. 4. No special privileges ought to be accorded to authority and to tradition. 5. Each scholar must simply do the utmost with his own mind, no holds barred. On the basis of these beliefs, principles governing academic freedom in state universities have been set up, and these were re- viewed for us last year by Dr. Mulford Sibley. , CATHOLIC educators, on the other hand. reject this secular “creed” and proceed from quite different assumptions.

To get a head start on the '57 grid campaign, coach Edor Nelson is concentrating on getting the Auggie offense clicking. The boys will be practicing in the gym and outdoors if possible the remainder of this week. 303 PETERSON, transfer stu» dent from the “U,” is slated to quarterback the team, which has cot—captain Ron Stave at halfback . with Lee Olson.

Show morePage Four Support Bill for Retarded WE HAVE published our series on the problem of the mentally retarded because we feel that these problems have relevance to college people. ~ Some of us may become parents of retarded children Then the problem will be personal, But all of us have a social responsibility in this matter. Right now there is a bill before the legislature which provides a different basis of payment for school districts having classes for the mentally retarded. If this bill is not passed, these classes will receive no state aid. PROSPECTS for the bill's approval are not good. It may die in committee unless enough citizens indicate their support. We might argue that training these people will make them less of a financial burden in the long run. But as Christians we have no right to use such an argument. If we believe what we profess about the value of each person and his right to fully develop himself, we should support training of the retarded whether or not this is less expensive in the long run. Voters Must Weigh Issues BY THE TIME campaigning will have reached its climax this Friday, it is hoped that candidates and voters alike will have tangled with some basic questions concerning the purposes of a student gov- ernmont on the college campus. For example, why should a student government exist on a cam- pus? What is the relationship of the student government program to the college's educational aims? What does it really mean to have a “successful” student government program? To A LARGE degree, the strength of next year’s student govern— ment program at Augsburg will be determined by how well each office holder comes to grips with the basic purposes and goals of student government. All students who are concerned about the improvement of student government at Augsburg will not only consider the personality of each candidate but will also judge how well he has shown himself to be prepared to take on responsibilities. Talk with the candidates and read their platforms. Discover whether they are formulating in their own minds the basic purposes and goals of student government. Decide who you think would be best prepared to take on responsibilities. Vote in the final April 12.

Reality obstructs the ideal. Expediency rebukes the conscience. Desires obscure values. IF ANY man seeks to become a whole person. let him deny him- self, take up his cross and suffer. An imitator of Christ cannot avoid the conflicts which come to him as he makes every effort to supple- ment faith with virtue, knowledge, self—control, patience, godliness, brotherly affection and love. The ideal of being faithful is threatened by the reality of faith- lessness. Pleasures make the demand of acquiring knowledge im— practicable. The exercise of self-control suppresses egotistical ambi- tions. Patience requires God-given energies ARE THESE not suffering? . Christ alone re'mains the perfection of godliness, brotherly affec‘ tion and love. But We are to be “little Christa." Only love could make our Savior take the way of crucifixion in order that sinners might be his brothers. And this was to be the pat- tern for his followers, the joy of finding oneself is preceded by con- flicts, tensions and struggles. To the unregenerated person suffering is meaningless misery. To one who is in Christ suffering becomes the instrument which fashion: the whole person—in the image of God. Stratford PlaYers Present ‘Oedipus' with Skill, Power By Mun: Olson Westgate theater, in keeping with its usual emphasis on fine art! films, is currently playing host to a Canadian production of "Oedipus Rex." THE TALE of the Greek king who slays his father and man-lei hil mother is portrayed in exceptional fashion by the Stratford Shnke— spearean festival players of Canada. Originally written as a play by Sophocles, it is unusual in that the film employs but one stage letting throughout. As Greek actors of that period wore elaborate mask: in precenting their plays, so the actors in this cinema production wear mask: that are expressive in depicting character and purpose. As king, Oedipus in portrayed with a mask of intense gold color and powerful features.

Dr. auanbeclr, Paul Nylms Speak at NSA Conference Problems of increasing enroll- ments were discussed at the NSA Student-Leader conference at the University of Minnesota last Sat- urday. Two representatives from Augsburg were included in the program. Dr. Martin Quanbeck, Dean of the College, discussed the effect of increasing enrollments on teaching methods and aca- demic standards. Martin Sabo Attends Workshop in Chicago Martin Sabo, freshman, chair- man of the Students for Steven« son at Augsburg, was one of the national Stevenson for President committee attending a two-day all expense paid workshop in Chi- cago last weekend. The delegates attended a num« ber of general sessions dealing with campus organizations, state wide organizations and research projects. They discussed Stevenson‘s position on issues of intercst to students. also A highlight of the workshop was a speech by former governor Stevenson. On Sunday special buses took the delegates to Gov- ernor Stevenson's farm in Liber- tyville, where students informally had a chance to talk to Mr. Stev- enson. The burden of proof, Dr. Quan- beck state'd, lies with those who insist that the small class is most effective. However, he added, stu- dents and teachers report from experience in small classes that certain intangibles are transmit- ted, which cannot be measured. Dr, Quanbeck also pointed out that the problem of getting teach- ers will become more acute. The majority of our teachers for the near future will have to come from the depression age, when the birth rate was down. Paul Nyhus, student body vice president and chairman of NSA, participated in the panel on co- curricular activities in the face of increasing enrollments. One of the things pointed out by the panel is Lamina [germ No Maior Issues in Campaign, Vofers Agree By Bob Barber What do you consider the most important issue in the coming election? Bob Gjengdahlil do not believe there are any main issues in this election. The job of student government is to act as more of a point of contact between students and faculty than to initiate change of policy. Jackie Hanson—A large number of students are unaware of their role in student government, I believe this is due to a lack of clarification of cer- tain issues such as academic policy. The average 'I'HE AUGSIURG ECHO that NSA promotes earlier m2< turity of student government leaders. In other words, by familiariz- ing the potential leader with the problems face'd by student gov« ernments and ways they can be handled, NSA helps him learn from the experiences of others as well as himself. Keynote speaker for the confer- ence was Dr. George Selke, Com< missioner of Conservation.

My trencbant terms shall be directed at the Bolts of Delta House. I must begin with a certain roommate who poses as a Swede but more closely resembles an inferior species of pack-rat. This man’s locker is an indes- cribable mess: It leaves the impression of a dump ground which fell in the wake of a vicious tornado. His bedding is not the neatest but it changes. He has four m sheets which he rotates with farcical regularity. 0n the other extreme we have a meticulous housekeeper who delights in mopping and waxing the floor. Now I can accent I Corbin amount of cleanliness, but I stand violently opposed to these I‘ldlonl measures. I think he should be investigated. Then there are two crackpots at the end of the hall. One set: yogurt and the other reads H. L Mencken. Two scholars live in seclu- sion next ‘door. I wonder how they got in? Anyway you can see what I have to put up with. In the words of A.

Last year he finished with a .320 average and played his usual steady game in center field. Coach Edor Nelson had this to say about his center fielder: "Hank isn't a flashy ballplayer. He's the type that seldom makes mistakes. He fields well, makes all the plays, and bangs the ball at a .300 clip without attracting much notice.

St. Thomas To Test Power Of Augsburg Diamondmen By Gene Jesperson St. Thomas, Tuesday, April 17. Is it possible to select a suitable starting lineup after only a week of outdoor practice? These are the two main problems which Coach Edor Nelson must solve within the next four days. ‘ Naturally it is possible that rain will postpone these headaches but nevertheless Edor has come up with a lino-up which includes two men at almost every position. Hank Bartel, Bruce Gibson and Jim Plumedahl are the only holdovers from last year who are not being pressed for their familiar positions. John Welckle, usually depend- ed upon to hit that long ball, is experiencing stiff competition at first base from freshman Dale Thorson. Third b a s e m a n Art Johnson is being pressed by an- other letterman Lynn Aasen. Carl Hellzen currently has the edge over Rod Thompson at second base and Jim Plumedahl will be at shortstop. Dick Nelson, Ron Stave and Roger Erickson are battling for the catcher‘s postion left vacant by Carl Finnesgaard who did not return to s c h o o l.

Since Easter vacation the tcam sports for womcn class has been learning the skills of volleyball. All the girls have played volleyball before, but upon completion of this unit the girls must also have a thorough knowledge of the technical aspects of volleyball. Several of the Augsburg girls havc begun playing tennis already. It seems many of our girls are very much interested in tennis and some talk has begun about starting a tennis tcam.

Sibley To Define Academic Freedom Few terms are tossed around as loosely as the currently popular "academic freedom.” That is why we are very happy that the United States National Students association has designated this Academic Freedom week, with the theme, “Toward a Basic Definition." Purpose of the week is to “give students an opportunity to recon- sidcr the reasons why they are in college, and what their role is in a responsxble and free academic community." Though there has undoubtedly been some fuzzy thinking on both sides, we are at least more aware of the issues than many other cam- puses. We must not forget, either, that problems of freedom are not limited to religious schools. In an effort to help define the issue of academic freedom as it is related to both state and private schools, the Echo has invited Professor Paul Sibley of the University of Minnesota political science department to speak here May 16. Professor Sibley’s talk will be at 7:30 in the chapel and is open to students, faculty and all others who are inter- By Frank Rykken THIS ARTICLE IS begun with great misgiving for in a few short paragraphs it will attempt to trace a present»day odyssey. The story began in Russia before the Revolution, where a young stu- dent was occupied with his philo- logical studies at a major univer- sity. These studies led him into di- verse fields of research and he ultimately prepared three 'di'sser- tations on the following subjects: 12th century architecture, the idea of state and autOcracy and the influence of Finnish on the Rus- sian language. This scholarly background enabled the promising young philologist to begin teaching at the university, with every indi- cation of a brilliant career. But with the coming of the Bolshe- Russian Professor Starts life for Third Time vln, a reversal of fortune ap- pared.

Summer Jobs To Be Scarce By Dick Husfloen Members of the working class (us poor disinherited souls with- out any rich uncles or criminal tendencies) had better start look— ing now for summer jobs. So say the latest reports from the Min- neapolis branch of the state em- ployment service. Although the job situation is not unusual compared to other years, the large concentration of students in the Minneapolis—St. jobs as typists in insurance firms and other large employers of per- sonnel offer the best opportunities for monetary advancement. There are some openings for nurses’ aides, but jobs are few and appli- cations should be in early. However, should job—seeking end in failure, there are senil- permanent jobs with guaranteed monthly wages, liberal company benefits and wide opportunity for travel in one of the gloriously at- stage.

Arid imagine that the stones under his feet begin to crumble, and the tighter he holds on the faster they fall, until only one small crevice remains. His face is confusion, then fear, then utter desperation The last crevice begins to vanish; searching frantically he looks up . and sees a hand stretched out far from his reach . . . and hears a voice saying, “Only believe.” Imagine! Absurd! Imagine Peter walking on the water. This morning I am particularly despondent. I attribute this state to the following factors: I had to get out of bed: my breakfast roll contained pine- apple: for the 17th consecutive day my mail box was empty save for bulletins and bills: and I‘ve been fighting with three editors. But I shall place a smile on my face. and make the best of the situa- fioni . . a I refuse to mention spring this time. A month ago I referred to it The next day there was a bliz— zard. Two weeks ago I poemed it. The same thing happened. So let‘s just assume that the following engagements have no connection with springtime. Winter is still with us. Curtis Anderson.

And some jokes: The difference between a house moth- er and a game warden is that the game warden protects wild life and the house mother prevents it. A college freshman was being severely criticized by his professor. “Your last paper was very difficult to read," said the professor. “Your work should be written so that even the most ignorant will be able to understand it" “Yes. Sir,“ said the student. “What part didn’t you get?" A guy was standing on the street corner with a bag in each hand. Another fellow came up to him and said "What's in that bag?" "That’s a bottle of whiskey in case I get bit by a rattlesnake." “What’s in the other bag?” “That’s the rattlanake." To the Editors To The student Body: Remember the One Appeal drive we had last winter? Remember that rainy night in October when the team captains met and we said we thought we could raise $4,000? Remember how Pastor Paul and Tom Warme preached the old “giving till it hurts" sermon till it did? Re- member how the only piece of mail you got that day was that' bloody old envelope asking for money again?

He also taught lan- guages privately, (He speaks Rul- sian, Polish, German, French, has a knowledge of several others). In 1951 he came to America as a displaced person. The officials in charge of refu- gee selection were convinced that his scholastic background would be valuable in America, where the Russian language had attained prominence in the light of the world situation. But teaching po- sitions were not as plentiful as these officials ha'd assumed and it became necessary to earn a liv- ing by working in a factory. When the factory shut down, the Lutheran Welfare society found employment for him at Augsburg.

Cut off from his homeland by a series of wars and forced migra- tions. he is beginning life in a strange country for the third time.
