Because of the interest in this play, the ECHO asked Mr. William Hal- verson, assistant professor of phi- losophy and religion, to preview the work.) by William H. Halversou The forthcoming appearance in St. Paul of Archibald MacLeish‘s “J.B." will provide Twin City area theatre-goers an opportuni— ty to see one of the most widely discussed dramatic productions of recent years. ‘ ACCLAIMED by the SATUR- DAY REVIEW as “(possibly) one of the lasting achievements of art and mind in our time,” “IE.” is certain to provoke a great deal of interest, not only in local literary circles, but in more exclusively religious circles as well. For “J.B." is not “just another Broad- way play;" it claims to be, in seine sense, a “modern version” of the Biblical story of Job. "J.B." shares with much of the best in contemporary literature an essentially tragic View of hu- man life. In Nickles. for example —a has-been actor reduced to selling popcorn, who (ﬁttingly!) reads the lines of Satan in the play » within- the - play — Mac- Leish has created a character whose unmitigated cynicism is worthy of a Sartre: for Nickles, life is simply absurd. "You are a bitter man," Mr. Zuss says to Nickles. And Nickles responds: "I taste of the world! I‘ve licked the stick that beat my brains out: stock that broke my father's bonesi" As in the Biblical story, the theme of meaninglessness is ex— plored through the undeserved suffering of an apparently right- ‘I’HE AUGSIURG ECHO Friday, January 15, I960 Auggies Sphnd' New Year Holiday In Texas Several Augsburg s t u dents spent the New Year holiday in lion Leaving snow and ice be- hind, the leaguers found roses Texas. These L of the Augustana Lutheran youth conference, attended the 18th bi- annual Luther League conven- healthy, successful and self-com ﬁdent banker who, in a series of tragedies, is swiftly deprived of everything he has. INDEED, IF ANYTHING, the horror of J.B.’s experience is made even more apparent than that of his Biblical counterpart»— this by means of some very ef< fective “bit parts" played by an assortment of drunken, calloused reporters and unfeeling gossips. J.B.’s “friends,” moreover, are not the basically sympathetic de- fenders of religious orthodoxy fa- miliar to readers of Job: they are rather dehumanized representa- tives of the more modern ortho- doxies of scientism and histori- (315111. The intent in both cases, how- ever, is the same: the riddle of the apparent meaninglessness of human life, as it is brought into sharp forcus through the effec- tive display or unrelieved trage< dy in the life of one man, is shown to be far too profound for the common platitudes of the prevailing orthodoxy. AT THIS POINT, one must either look for a new answer to the riddle or settle for the harsh conclusion that life is ultimately a gigantic absurdity. And it is precisely at this point that the similarity betwen Job and J.B. ends. For Job, such an- swer as there is comes in the dra- matic appearance of God speak- ing out of the whirlwind; and even this does not so much pro— vide an answer to Job’s intellec- tual dilemma as it provides rather a meaningful context wihin which the struggle for provisional meanings can be en- dured. In J.B., on the contrary, the ap- pearance of the Voice constitutes simply one more element in the absurdity which has to be ex‘ plained, and .I.B.’s subsequent re~ ‘ a and high um in San Antonio. Among those attending from Augsburg were Alan Burke, Gafhering for communion, (above) nearly 4500 Luther leaguers of the Augustana Lu- theran church met over New Year’s in San Antonio, Texas for their biennial convention. Part of the over 1500 Minnesota dele- gates who attended were Mary Lee Fellrath and Wayne Coll. They were among nine Auggies who traveled by chartered traln to the Texas border city. acLeish's Pulitzer ‘J.B.' pentance constitutes yet another. “The Choice," Nickles says con- temptuously, “is swallowing this swill of world or vomiting in the trough. Job swallowed it. . . .” MacLeish has, therefore, to ﬁnd some “new answer” to the prob- lem of apparently meaningless suffering—some answer that will show that the apparent meaning- lessness of it all is only apparent. And he ﬁnds it (in the course of what I imagine to be a very touching scene of reconciliation between J.B. and his wife) in the rather insipid observation that man is of such a nature that he stubbornly keeps on believing in God and loving his fellows in spite of tragedy. TEE CLIMAX of the book of Job is a dramatic self—manifesta- tion on the part of God; the cli- max of J.B. is a dramatic decla- ration of man‘s propensity to have faith in God and man al- though neither of them deserves it, plus a touching but otherwise unremarkable declaration of love on the part of .l.B.’s wife. Whatever other merit the play may have—and I think it has many—I ﬁnd this to be a singu- larly unprofound solution to a problem which the book of Job is honest enough to leave unre- solved. Mary Lee Fellrath, Luis am. man, Jennelle Johnson, Wayne Coil and Marlys ReicheL Some of the events which im- pressed the students were the ‘ New Year's Eve service in Travis Square in the center of the city, the quaint river development through the city, and the mass communion service. A parade through San Antonio was fol- lowed by a barbeque sponsored by the Texas conference. THIS CONVENTION held spe‘ cial discussion groups dealing with young adult programs and vocations. The purpose ,of the en- tire gathering was to “enlighten the Augustana youth to the working of their church and to go home to make their league and their witness for Christ bet- ter." Speakers from synod: other than the Augustana synod were ths Rev. Merton Strommen of the LFC and Dr. Franklin Clark Pry of the United synod. . Yet He Shall live by Roger Gordon One of the unsolved riddle: of nature is the strange migration of lemmings, small rodents that inhabit the mountainous regions of northern Europe. Every four or five years at autumn time these little brown animals are seized by wanderlust and set out on a senseless journey that ends in their own destruction. Descending to the Valley: by the' millions, they overrun farms, swarm through the streets of towns, and even invade houses. Ordinarily timid and watchful, they become ﬁerce n5 warrior: and carelessly bold. In their mad rush to nowhere they fall prey to larger animals, throw themselves over cliffs or drown in riyers too wide or swift to swim. Even 50, millions of them reach the coast. And still following the great urge to move on, they cast themselves into the ocean where they are lost. Man’s journey across the scene of life is often as senseless u that, though it need not be. Life ‘ is not designed to be without meaning. God has given man u true understanding of his begin- ning and of his goal. His exist- ence is not a mad, senseless jour- ney in response to a hidden inde- ﬁnable call. When man‘s life is blessed by Christian faith it becomes n pl]. gumage. It answers the call of Christ to live a life of love and service. It moves on toward the goal of eternity. At the bridge of death it migrates to the habit:- tions of the eternal home. A safe pilgrimage and sure ml- gration are promised by Chrirt who died and rose again. It is assured by His own word of truth: “I am the resurrection,and the life: he that believeth in me. though he were dead, yet shall he live,- and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.” 3i. 14%;”, 62.4., machN. 1958-59 News wmr —- Feature Editor Rzportenands Bane. tat! . ._ C131 Bin Bowers, Judy Nauru.

Icemen Boast 3-0 Record With Win A Over Macalester Pucksters 4-3 The Augsburg hockey team ran its MIAC win streak to three by edging Macalester 4-3 on their ice Monday afternoon. The Scots got off to a 2-0 lead in the ﬁrst period before Dave Shogren poked one in for the Auggies at 11:30. In the second session, Bruce Ranum scored at 1:34 and Dave Syl- vester hit a half minute later. Ranum beat the Mac goalie for the last Aug goal at 11:56. Both LeRoy Lee and Robin Prigge were credited with two assists. The Scots closed the gap to one with 10 seconds left in the second period. The third period was scoreless Dick Kuehne turned in a brilliant performance in goal with 28 stops. The Augs had only six minutes in penalties compared to 12 to 18 minutes in previous games. Holding leads ranging hum ten to ﬁfteen points throughout the half, Augsburg left the ﬂoor with a healthy-looking 11 point lead at 4342. Dick otstun scored his 10 points in that hall; Pete Lier hnd nine of 17. Lloyd Raymond added all seven of his points, and Bruno Gildseth all ﬁve 01 his. When play was resumed, Gila- tavus looked like a dilferent team. The Gusties could seen- ineg do no wrong and the Aug found themselves in another un. fortunate cold~shootinx spell.

THE FIRST HOME GAME of 1960 pitted the Augs against a tall, tough nonconference foe; Wartburg. The Knights con- trolled the boards and shot into a 43-33 halftime lead, Captain Lowell Ziemann led the Auggies in a 38-point second half, but Wartburg never let up, scored an equal number of points and won the setto, 81-71. The Augs journeyed to Carle- ton on Tuesday, January 5. They came out on the short end of a 7842 decision. A week ago, Mac- alester entertained Augsburg in the Mac ﬁeldhouse.

Show morePage Four A Strange Idolatry We became rather intrigued this week with a book recently added to the George Sverdrup library shelves. Written by John A. Perkins, president of the University of Delaware and titled “Plain Talk from a Campus," the volume contains some interesting statements on the academic community and its relation to finances, administration and proper student perspective. ' ADMJ'I'ITNG “there are empire-building, expansionist elements on the collegiate scene," Perkins cautions faculty and students to be “much more concerned with the substance and quality of learning than are the ordinary citizens.” In order to do this, however. he continues, “we must be resolute, indeed, if we are not to be taken in by false idols of education and bow down before bricks instead of books, gymnasium instead of laboratories and certificates and degrees instead of a faculty respected for exceptional intelligence and great learning." v OUR. CURRENT HYPER-CONCERN for physical development coupled with its tendency to disregard many of the concrete academic and administrative achievements already reached, does not, in our opinion, come under the classification of “substance and quality of learning." I! Augsburg represents itself as an institution PRIMARILY de- voted to Christian liberal arts education, we question the ethicality of appropriating Madison avenue marketing techniques to "sell" this “product.” ' W'HILE IT MAY be idealistic to suggest that the ends NEVER justify the means, a college community is the last place where ideal- ism can afford to be sacrificed Therefore, we question the “means” which include such gimmicks as thousand dollar clubs, gold-plated endorsement lists and other status-attainment devices. Even more, we question the use of these means as ends in them< selves. Unfortunately, there exists no device to measure, through the eyes of our “expansionist element," the worth of an individual who can make academic, intellectual and spiritual, but not monetary, contribution. FOR US AS STUDENTS to request administrative power and voice in administrative decisions is a subterfuge to ourselves. Like< wise, administrative attempts to generate enthusiasm for the brick and mortar phase of development fall into the same category. For we cannot help but agree with Perkins who writes: "A cur- rent complaint made against American college students is that they refuse to become excited or involved, especially about ideas or causes. Every student who enters a university should have complete com- mitment and involvement in one great cause—learning." The ethics. means and ends of Christian liberal arts education are not harmonious with those of The Organization. Neither is Chris- tian liberal arts education categorically compatible with detergents and cigarettes. Yet, tacit acceptance of the application of these same methods in selling both indicates your approval. Scuff - Marks Valentine‘s day is over and it's a good thing. It is the most de- pressing day of the year. What used to be hearts and flowers is now slams and insults. No longer can friend tell friend “I love you" under the disguise of hearts and lace. Today he says, “If you don’t really, sincerely, honestly love mc—fake it." GAL I KNOW got a valentine from an old friend. She thought it would tell her how he felt. It did. Card said, “Look inside and you will see exactly what you mean to me." It was totally blank in» side. My state of depression stemmed from a ragged little rabbit I re- ceived on a card. He held a torn heart and said, “I fought real hard to get this card (the last one on the shelf). It‘s not all there, but you should care—you're not all there yourself." Light entertainment available in the cities last week included the Ice Capades in St. Paul and the Kingston Trio at the Audito- by Helen Bergen rium. Advance publicist for the Ice Capades, Cousin Bob Paxton, summed up that show this way: “We have $750,000 worth of cos— tumes draped on $1,000,000 worth of talent." The Kingston Trio‘s costumes were less expensive—and the worth of the talent depends on personal opinion. At any rate, the trio is getting rich from it. It’s quite a change from their college days when they sang for free drinks. Being college grads pro- bably explains their capacity for making money. At least, that‘s what I learned in sociology class, and I assume it applies. We understand that if the old gym isn't torn down soon that the band will take it upon itself to remedy the situation. Before go- ing on tour they will march around the walls seven times. 0N ROCKS: Phyllis Raymond, Sr., is engaged to Dick Barge, se- mester grad: Jerry Johnson. Sr., to Marceil Janke; and Pat Stre'ck- er to Dean Pederson. Only A Purposeless Activist? by Ken Nelson Activism seems to be characteristic of our generation. But are we only sctive_being active in our activities? Our goal seems to be to finish a task rather than to enjoy the process of achieving. And, in our status-seeking. this is often done by sacrificing relationships. THE TRAGEDY of this is not only that we use our fellow-men, but that God becomes our celestial servant. "Hey God, get me out of this mess!" Maybe the solution to our sometimes purposeless and undirected activism is to once again reestablish that vital and profound rela- tiOXLship with God via the forgiving Jesus Christ. With Whittier we need to pray, “Dear Lord and Father of man- kind, forgive our feverish ways; Reclothe us in our rightful mind, In purer lives Thy service find . . . Take from our souls the strain and sues. And let our ordered lives confa the beauty of Thy peace." And this takes realized dependency upon God. THE AUGSIUIG ECHO “WW. It, loco Rate .Hike Brings Varied Student Response The increasing cost of higher education has again found its way to our door. In a letter of February 3, we were informed of a tuition increase of $100 per school year, or $50 a semester. The letter also reported “no in- crease in charges is ever voted except after a thorough examina— tion of operating expense." We as students must rely upon the governing board of our col- lege to determine what is finan- cially secure and sensible in re- gard to our tuition fee. IN RETURN are we asking too much if we wish to be informed prior to official action as to where costs are increasing and to what extent our added “dona- tions” will eleviate the “pinch- ing shoe“? Much as the increase may be justified and necessary, it will likely present certain problems for students. The ECHO asked three stu- dents to tell what the tuition hike means to them and how it will affect them. The answers follow: Jerry Baker, “After reading about the increase in cost to at- tend Augsburg, I feel that it is very doubtful whether I will be able to return next fall. “ONE REASON for attending Augsburg was that it was a pri- vate college with a Christian en- vironment and yet it was less ex- pensive than other schools throughout the state." Phyllis Acker, “I can’t see how I’ll be able to raise an extra $100 over the summer, and I don't want to work too many hours during school. “Higher education, particularly in small private colleges, is get- ting to the point where those who I In the light of the tuition rise the Augsburg slogan could be: Keep Augsburg green — bring money. will be getting an education will be those can afford fabulous prim—not nemarily tlmse who are best qualiﬁed.” Curtis~ Anderson: “It will hire more than a $50 tuition hike to keepme from returning' to Augs- burg in the fall. “I would, however, like to know why this raise is necesuy.

'Barabbas' Explores Man's Search for Trufh by George Larson Many great works of fiction generally go unnoticed by the reading public. One suCh work is "Barabbas," written by the 1951 Nobel prize-ng Swedish novelist, Par Lagerkvist. The novel begins with the cru- cifixion of Christ. Barabbas, freed by the Roman governor who was accustomed to r e 1 e a s e to the crowd any one prisoner they wanted during the P a s s o v e r, watches the death of He who died in his place. Barabbas, at this tim e and throughout the book1 is confused. He cannot understand why he should be freed and an apparent- ly innocent man condemned. SEEKING to settle his confu- sion, Barabbas frequents Chris- tian homes to discover the es- sence of Jesus’ teachings. He is told that it is “love one another." But being unable to reconcile this with the harsh world, he grows more confused. After deserting his bandit friends, he wanders for yeals. ﬂ- nally becoming a slave in a Ro~ man mine. There he makes the acquaintance of a Christian and seems receptive to the Christian message However, at a crucial moment he denies any Christian faith. In the end, Batath is cruci- Whether he was ever won to Christianity or not, we do not know. The ambiguity of the end- ing is no doubt intentional; no man is qualified to judge another. The book, simply written and direct in approach, is not reas- suring. Not only is Barahbas de- stroyed by indecision, but the at- titudes and actions of the early Christians, at least those in Jeru- salem, seem at times most un~ Christian. They are pictured as fearful, hesitant people, more concerned with their own safety than with spreading the gospel. SUCH A PICTURE, of Course, may be historically correct for persecution did force the early Christians into hiding and, more- over, one could hardly expect them to be favorably disposed to- ward those connected with their Lord’s death. But on another level of mean« ing, this uncomplimentary des- cription may be taken as Lager- kvist’s commentary on contempo- rary Christianity. Essentially, “Barabbas” is the keen psychological study of a man searching for truth. Lacking any great metaphysical insight, Barabbas finds difficulty in u:- cepting anything that cannot be concretely proved or rationally demonstrated. masons himself is loveless and selfish. Perhaps he symbo- lizes those who stand on the verge of Christianity, but more likely he is a symbol of those who are unable to make up their minds concerning the truth or falsity of an ideology. He, like modern man, become- uncertain as to the wiseneu of his choice as conditions change. In Barabbas‘ case, it was the question of Christianity that caused this uncertainty. For oth- ers, it may be another question. Be that as it may, ideological un- certainty destroyed Barabbas and continues to destroy men today. 34. o4.le are ALL-MC”, 1958-55 unonmandsuﬂ_____.clamm . hmmlknﬂomsymm.mﬂ .lhfnem mm.laye26mllﬂywlm Adm—m“ .Haroldxmhx W Anal-n Jan-anon- mun-mm.“ " n"

'IIIE AUGSIURG ECHO - Wresflers by Oscar Blegen The men of muscle tarnished the so-mlled "Golden" Gusties 21-14 in the first of their series of victories. Gustavus, having a seasoned team, had high hopes of defeating the A u g g i e 5. These hopes were short lived, however, as the Gusties did not have the finesse to cope with the well-pol- ished Men of Edor. Jeff Peterson, lilo-pound divi- sion, and Oscar Blegen (157) won decisions. While Walt Christian- son (I47), Chuck Daggett (l67), and Chris Wagner (177) pinned their opponents. Chuck took 125'] to pin Gustie Gary Peterson. NEXT on the schedule was St. Thomas, whom the Auggie wres- tlers promptly defeated 21-18 be» fore the largest crowd in the his- tory of wrestling at Augsburg. ‘Saugestad's Pucksters Grab Second in MIAC by Shin Holden Augsburg's Saugestad-coached hockey team re- cently completed a highly successful season in which they finished second in the conference he hind potent Duluth Branch. Except for single losses to Duluth and St John's, the Augs would have had an unblemished record—(lO-2 overall and 6-2 in MIAC play). Since the last edition of this paper, the squad compiled 6 wins as against 2 setbacks. JOURNEYING to Hamline January 16, the Augs disposed of the Pipers 4-0. Ranum scored two goals—was assisted by single goals from Jim Ek- Itrand and Leroy Lee. Goalie Rich Kuehne received credit for his sec- ond straight shutout, and third of the year, when the pucksters disposed of Gustavus 2-0 on the home ice January 18. in a bruising battle which resulted in injuries to both sides. Sylvester and Lee scored for the Augs. DH“ a ten-day semester break, the hockey men had little trouble in disposing of hapless St. Mary's on the Auggie rink January 28, by a score of e-ll Robin Prigge and Ranuxn notched two goals apiece. _ s... .—___—__—~._ February 1 the Auggies dropped their important title-bearing game with Duluth by a resounding 10-0 score in a game played in the Minneapolis arena. The northern neighbors were just too much for Coach Saugestad's players, despite a glowing total of 44 stops by goalie Rich Kuehne. Returning to the home ice February 3, the Auggies defeated traditional rival St. Olaf l-O. The pucksters made their long trip to Moorhead on February 5 worth while by defeating Concordia 4-2. Ranum, Lee, Prigge, and Captain Dale Hanka each notched one goal. ' February 9th, St. John’s came to town with fire in their eyes and left with a resounding 6-1 tri- umph to their credit. Ranum managed the only Augsburg score; an unassisted goal in the first period. IN A Ell-MATCH with St. Olaf on the Ole ice February ll, the Augs were again victorious in their final game, 4-2. Next year Saugestad expects everyone back to bolster his hopes for an even better season, with the exception of senior Jerry Mortenson and cap- tain Hanks. Hunting Llunso A 8.

Chris Wagner pinned Rollie Willet at 2:25 of the second round and Jack (Bear) Osberg flattened Dale Stoeber at 2:30 of the first round. TWO DAYS LATER Macales- ter was the next to fall victim to the powerful Auggies. After spotting the Scotsmen 15 points in the first three matches, Alan Deurr stepped onto the mat. Alan edged the Mac wrestler 1-0 to win a close decision. Oscar Elegen, after 8 minutes of wres- tling, pinned his opponent. Chuck Daggett then came forth to win by a decision.

During the occupation of Norway in World war II, he rose to be one of the three church leaders in that country.

Show morePoacher / ’ A Two Way Mirror Racial incidents in Nashville, Tennessee, and other parts of the South this week prompted the National Student association to requat protests from its member colleges. ' MEG-RAMS of protest to the mayor of Nashville and support to the students of Fisk university were sent by both Augsburg student government and Echo. While we certainly view with disfavor the Nashville injustices, we find discrepancies in our view of this and our Phariseeistic, pie- tistic attitude of Northern "equality." ‘ THE MINORITY individual is a novelty on the Northern college campus and in being such, may give rise to our tendencies toward self-esteem through patronage. If we view Southern conditions of inequality with disdain, how can we rationalize our attitude toward the Indian. the Catholic, the Jew? Allport in his “Nature of Prejudice“ explains the prejudiced attitude as the result of frustration. The frustrated individual expe- riences a constricted and distorted view of his social and religious world. “He sees personal demons (minorities) at work because his normal directed thinking is blocked by the intensity of his feelings. He cannot analyze the evil; he can only personify it." FROM OUR WHITE, Protestant, middle-class ivory Tower, we ﬁnd it easy to cast selﬁsavmg, “appropriate” phrases from the “Ser- mon on the Mount" at our own “personal demons." ‘ It is incongrous, however, to speak of the second mile while we have yet to go the ﬁrst. ' Service Club [qua/s Busy Work A bill was introduced at a special meeting of the student council last Monday regarding the establishment of service societies for sopho- mores on campus. The bill was defeated because of a tie. THIS BILL DESERVES close study. These societies, if formed, would perform special services such as chapel ushering or represent- ing the school at college-sponsored exhibits. Beneﬁt to the college and students would be great, for they would provide a group of students who could perform details, such as those mentioned above, now dependent upon volunteer help. HOWEVER, PROBLEMS do arise. It is hoped by the proponents of the bill that such a society “will give extracurricular incentive to freshmen to participate in school activities.” But it appears that much of the work will consist of administrative tasks and the carrying out of orders rather than the giving of opportunities for individual initia< tive and leadership qualities to deyelop. There is also the question whether all eligible students would con- sider this society an honor, for membership in it would involve the expending of a considerable amount of time. It is, of course, impractical and idealistic to say students should spend all their time in academic pursuits.

Band Gives 'Sparkling, PoTishe\d’ Performance by Curt Haney The Augsburg college band left its listeners with impressions of the ultimate in symphonic band ‘Macbeth': Maturity in Augsburg Drama by Ruth M. Carlson lnterludes of excellence marked the Augsburg Drama De- distinguishable apparitions, the witch scenes were well handled. Technical aspects of the play partment's recent production of Shakespeare's "Macbeth." Doro- thy Larson as Lady Macbeth was outstanding in her sleep-walking scene, which was the highlight of the entire performance. However, the facet of Lady Macbeth which is revealed in the sleep-walking scene was made somewhat less probable by Miss Larson's previous portrayal of her as an essentially vicious woman. David Johnson, as the ambitious, imaginative Macbeth, also showed poise and depth in his role. GENERALLY, the excellence of these actors was carried through in the major supporting roles Most convxncing were Bradley Holt as Banquo, and Duane and Shirley Wilsey as Macdutf and Lady Macduﬁ. Excellence could also be found in minor roles. Maynard Daniel- ron carried off h'm role as Seyton with ﬁnesse. David Tollefson‘s portrayal of Lennox was good. Bob Stevens, as the drunken por» ter. was superb as he made his scene another highlight of the performance. Not to be omitted is Dean An- derson. junior member of the cast, who expressed himself with more feeling and greater clarity than some of his seniors m WEISS deserve high praise. Although often diEmlt to understand. they succeeded well in setting the tone of the scenes. with the exception of almost in- were carried oﬁ well. Lighting was often effective in pointing up Macbeth‘s halluciantions in the banquet scene. Backgron red during the execution scene also added meaning. Musical effects were good, particularly the live oboe. Combined capabilities of vet- eran and new talent in the “Mac- beth” presentation show Augs- burg drama has reached a new, maturity. Scuff-Marks by Helen Bergen With basketball nearly over and track a while away, three Augs- burg young men with a mind towards establishing a new American institution have established “boot ball." The winner in this fascinat< ing game is determined by the number of times out of ﬁve that a ping pong ball thrown from a distance of ten paces lands in a Welling- ton boot. ORIGINATED by Don Gilberg, Myron Carlson, and Dennis Peder- son, this tournament is held at 2311 Riverside Ave. at unscheduled times. Open to the public, the games cost males 10c; females are paid 10c for participating. Meal tickets are accepted. Champion Carlson stated, “It‘s bound to revolutionize parlor games.” Speaking of athletics, in a letter received from Lever Brothers company, the Echo was informed that Lifebuoy soap is the exclusive soap of the 1960 winter Olympics. Attention to home management students: From the Tuesday Min- neapolis Tribune, “In the Chocolate Cherry Cake recipe that appeared music with its concert Sunday. Band members wore new uni- forms, adding much to their physical appearance. “ ' ‘ with a of “Introduction and Wedding March" by Rimsky-Korsakov, the group captivated the audience with its precision and exactness. FOLLOWING Bach’s inspira- tional “0 Jesus Blast" from “The St. Matthew Passion" the band changed the entire mood and demonstrated true military style in their performance of Soma'a “Fairest of the Fair." An audi- ence favorite, the highly spirited “Holiday for Winds," was char— acterized by well-executed intri- cacies in the Woodwinds. A choral, as well as instru- mental group, the band sang “Faith Orbit" by Prof. L. B. Sat- eren. The contemporary expres- sion of faith in the text was aided by voides whose intonation was comparable to college choirs. The ﬁrst half of the concert concluded with the close harmo- nies and diﬂicult intervals of Paul Creston’s "Celebration Overture.” The band encountered some diEquty in their perform- ance of this number. A good ﬁrst performance of the new compositions, “Spirit of Canaveral,” a march. by and Williams’ “Stars and States" was given. The latter is an ac‘ companied choral number writ- ten tor the 1960 Alisha tour. Wagner's "Procession lrom Loh- engrin" ended in I climax oi .. L . s - The ﬁnal piece, “Polonaise from Christmas Night" by Rim- sky-Korsalrov, was well handled. Encores included “American! We" and the traditional "Stan and Stripes Forever.” The band is a well-organized unit and appears sparkling and polished under the direction of Mayo Savold. The soloists (tea- tured or otherwise) performed with poise and professionalism. Outstanding features at the band are its percussion and oboe loc- tions, which played with our perfection throughout the con- cert.

BORN IN ITALY, Dr. Colacci earned his Th.D. “magna cum laudc” before he reached age 22. He received the degree from the Pontiﬁcal Roman Major seminary at tho Latcran, Rome. consequently. he received a scholarship to study at the Ponti- ﬁcal Biblical Institute de Urbc in Rome for two ycars. There he re- ceived a “Degree in Holy Bible," in 1934. Here, he also qualiﬁed as “magna cum laude.” EARNING his PhD. in 1940 from the Government university of N a p l e s , he simultaneously taught Greek and Hebrew in the Pontiﬁcal regional seminary of Benevento, Italy. Until he came to the United States in 1949, he was professor of Latin, classical Greek, philosophy, Italian and history in the Government col- lege, Mario Pagano at Campbas- so, Italy. While working in St. Paul in 1951, Dr. Colacci met Dr. Chris- tensen, Augsburg president. In 1952. he began teaching at Augs- burg and later was accepted into the ministerium of the Lutheran Free church. In reference to the college, Dr. Colacci said, “I am Very glad that it has a sound combination of academic and Christian insight into human life."

Red-haired Mr. Evenson was a two-letter winner in track and cross-country and a one—letter winner in football in high school. Since his arrival at Augsburg in 1957, he has “moved” pretty well in such events as the 440 yd. dash (best time was 51.5 sec- onds), the low hurdles, the half— mile run and the mile relay.

' “The scientific revolution has made full national sovereignty obsolete. Either we recognize that we live in one world and estab- lish world mechanisms for main« tenance of international law and order, or we shall probably de- stroy ourselves as well as other people,” he concluded. by David L. Johnson Looking the way a top level politician should look, Paul ButA ler, National Chairman for the Democratic party, capped a whirl« wind tour of the Twin City area with an Augsburg stop last Fri- day. Wearing a neat, tasteful and conservative suit, Mr. Butler ap- peared aware of the new role which Dr. Carl Chrislock, campus host, said national party chairmen are now filling. But more than the politically accented dress was Mr. Butler’s facial appearance. TIRED but not exhausted, here was a politician who appeared to have “politicked” hard and ap- m. vtoehe: NS President Urges Support 0/ "00- Violent Demonstrations United States National Student assocratlon (USNSA) of which Augsburg is a member, is presently urging the various member col- leges to unite in protest against segregation and the treatment of persons involved in sit-in movements in the South. IN A m to member colleges, Donald A. Hoffman, USNSA president, urged them to support the protest movement by sending telegrams to the various Southern officials and organizations involved and to in all ways show they are behind this movement. Curtis B. Guns, National Affairs vice-president of the USNSA. stated at a protest demonstration by New York college students that “we are supporting the courage of groups of students who have found the strength to rise up against ancient tradition which marked a cer- tnin segment of our society as second class people." He‘said that the “straw that broke the camel’s back” causing the USNSA to act “came from Nashville, where the police allowed Negro and white ‘ ‘ in a no ' ‘ ‘ ‘ - tion, to be attacked by groups of white youths; where a public al- lowedthepolioetotm-ntheirhackson suchviolmce,andthenal- lwedtheNemnuduutobeammd." A Butler Says 'Relig parently enjoyed it. Speaking to faculty and students in the facul- ty lounge, Mr. Butler utilized the first thirty minutes to speak about nonpartisan politics, He expressed the idea that politics is, and ought even more to be, concerned with the brotherhood of man. ‘ In this respect he felt that poll- tics is everyone's concern and ev- eryone should become more ia- miliar with the political world. Butler had ready answers for the questions asked during the discussion period following his talk. To the question whether the Democratic party should allow southern Democrats to go their own way and be forgotten, he re- plied, “I believe, sir, that the southern Democrats are quite 'possibly going their own way— to obscurity." AT THIS point, Butler broad- ened his statements. He said he believes a re-emergence of the two-party system is becoming in- creasingly evident, and, for bet ter or for worse, it also appears that _conservatives are lining up with the Republicans while the Democrats are attracting the lib- erals. Mr. Butler felt “Mr. Stevenson will not likely emerge again as the Democratic candidate. He (Mr. Stevenson) is by far the most capable person for the pres- idential "‘ y the D could have, but even he cannot overcome two resounding de- feats." ion Nof Candidate Factor' V n A question as to the role of Vice President Nixon in settling the stcel strike brought this re- ply: “There is not much one can do during the initial pvriod of such a strike. Labor and manage- ment were about to arrch at a settlement when vice-presidential aspirant, labor boss Mitchell, for political reasons called in the vice president and arranged to have him (Mr. Nixon) ‘scltlc the mat- teny n [NEVITABLY there appeared a question on the political foot< hull, religion.

A number of v:hurr:h-rclatnd colleges are opposed to federal aid on grounds that too many strings are attached.

Show morePage Four A New Reformation Writing in the March 2 issue of Christian Century, Yale Theo— logian H. Richard Niebuhr calls for a reformation of the church ‘ﬁiot now by separation from the world but by a new entrance into it without conformity to it.” WHAT IS NEEDED, he continues, is a “resymbolization of the message and the life of faith in the One God" through replacement of old “worn out” phrases and cliches with “pregnant words and in symbolic deeds." We do not see in our traditionalized pious platitudes and their accompanying semi-hypnotic embellishments, the answer to what Niebuhr calls “a great religious void" where man‘s “half-gods have gone and the gods have not arrived." [N A CONDITIONED-RESPONSE Pavlovian manner, the con- temporary clergy often substitute the “cliche” where use of the “pregnant word” might bring status-threatening conﬂict. Niebuhr's concept of “resymbolization . . . in symbolic deeds" is not present, we feel, in the interpersonal payola which often per- vades the church and its Christian college communities. This reformation will not come about, says Niebuhr, “unless the human spirit is revived within itself.” Meanwhile, “ ‘the hungry sheep look up and are not fed.’" A legal Tangle The Wisconsin state supreme court took under consideration last week a case that has caught the attention of the nation’s college edu- cators. The question to be decided by the court is whether a college professor could be held liable for the suicide of one of his students. The court will rule on the case April 5. THE CASE INVOLVES suit of a state college professor by the parents of one of his students who committed suicide. The parents maintain the professor was counseling their daughter, was aware of her emotional experiences and failed to give her proper guidance. While a lower court decided earlier that a teacher who has no medical training is not required to diagnose ailments in his students, reversal of this ruling by a higher court could have far»reaching im- plications in the college guidance and counseling field. ALTHOUGH PERHAPS not officially designated as counselor, an instructor’s capacities as advisor or confidante give value to the guidance program of an institution which cannot be overlooked. Classroom acquaintance with an instructor often brings the stu- dent to that instructor first for counseling or advice A ruling which would make a college professor legally responsible for diagnosis and referral of the myriad neuroses and psychoses which may present themselves could seriously thwart the constructive role he does and can play in the college counseling program. A consciousness of ethical responsibility should (and usually does) exist. But a professor should not be held chargeable for acts over which he has no control. 'Cranes' Show'Pafhefic Beaufy' by Claire Helland present, past and future dreams assail him as his life ebbs away. There is no glamour, there are no illusions, but there is the pa- thetic beauty that radiates from the eyes of a truly heroic woman. “The Cranes are Flying” is the Russian movie which won the grand prize at the Cannes Inter- national Film Festival and was recently shown in Minneapolis. THE SE'l'l‘ING is Moscow, the story has a conventional World War II theme — soldier plus young girl, who, left at home, must ﬁght a battle equal to any at the front. However, something in the development of this story will make one remember Boris and Veronica long after their corollaries in similar situations have merged into oblivion. Veronica is young, windblown and in love. She is beautifully untidy. and achieves the look much more realistically than could Debbie Reynolds. In fact this picture of simple Russian life puts Hollywood‘s a t t e m pt at glamorous poverty to shame. THE ENERGY of Veronica's resistance toward Mark is both heightened by, and eclipses the tumult of the blitz outside. And her self—Chastisement for her un- faithfulness to Boris is no less intense Meanwhile. the wounded Boris lies dying of wounds in a swamp.

Sems Enjoy Gracious Living of ifs Very Best by Helen Hagan Once to every journalist comes the assignment of a lifetime. I’ve had mine.

In a Hansel and Gretel scene (left) Tom Moon and Gene Peterson test their cul- inary luck with baked potatoes. Letter to Editor ‘ It is often said that the pastors of our churches fail to speak out on the social implications of the Gospel and provide effective leadership in this direction. Those of us in the LFC and related churches s h ould be especially aware of this problem. RATHER than taking a chance on offending someone, the pastor so often speaks only on the “grace of God," ﬁlling the sermon with cliches and otherwise sirn< ii "I would like you 'pre—sems’ to see the gracious living we have inside, but this delightful surprise comes AFTER you enroll." ply paraphrasing a Testament story, This type of preaching shakes no one and tends to create a false sense of security. Such security allows anyone to feel at peace with God and helps to perpetuate . what Bishop Lilje calls the cult of “atheist Christianity." WHAT IS EVEN more dis- heartening is that the leaders of our church and its institutions and organizations who empha- size the need for a more eﬂective voice are usually as guilty as anyone over the failure to exer- cise this leadership. Seminary training is a case in point. Here students are trained to act, think, and speak accord- ing to the party line. As a result our seminary graduates tend to be wholly-devoted confer-mists rather than wholly-devoted serv- ants of God. What is needed is more leader- ship with an adequate awareness of 1960. Perhaps the means of this end is a “peasant revolt" to over- throw the “ivory tower." Byron Sebmld Senior ing the paper.
