The importance of a Pep Band has not been properly emphasized. Mu- sic may have charms to soothe many a troubled breast, but it also has power to instill into the hearts of ﬁghters. courage. although nll seems to be lost. The Augsburg stu- dent body must get behind their team at every time of athletic combat. cheering them when their spirits sag and praising them when they deserve glory. The purpose of the band is to enliven pep-tests as well as to create. with the power oi music. the correct spirit at athletic contests. The hand will probably be decked in uniforms when they appear Fri- day. Show your appreciation by giv- ing them a big band! New members include L‘.

It Can Be Done, Says The Earning Student "Back and forth. between pocket- book and textbook, half a million litu- ilents shuttle each year, earning their way as they go," says Rita S. Kalle in a report prepared for Mchl’a Magazine. She proceeds to tell how it can be done. “ ‘The young American is I deter- mined animal,’ said the head at the vocational bureau of one of the big mid-western colleges. ‘If he wants anything. he data: not allow handicaps to stand in the way of his getting it. If he wants a college education. the triﬂe of his not having the money will not prevent him, probably four or ﬁve hundred thousand strong each year, from going to college. According to the silver screen, most college stu- dents spend their time scattering in- dulgent futhers’ glittering dollars over the primrose path. A: a matter of fact .at least half of the million students in American colleges each year spend their time between the textbook and the pocketbook. They haven't fathers who can aﬁord to be indulgent. and if they want to go to college. they must earn the money to do so. “ 'And don't be misled by the hero stiiiT you read about it. into thinking that this is either easy or pleasant It is much more thrilling to read about than to experience.

The assembly then adjourned for chapel convocation. In the afternoon. the psychological tests were given by Mr. Adolph Paul» son to the freshmen who had not taken them in high school. The Wednesday evening session was led by Prof. S. Melby. Several short talks were given by heads of various extracurricular activities. In speaking on "The Worthy Use of Leisure," Dr. Ermisch advised the students not to waste more than two minutes per day. To have a system in all that we do. was his advice. Prof. S. B. Severson spoke on the subject of "Forensics" and showed the great opportunities which Augs- burg offers along the line of debate and oratory. Beatrice Helland and Mathilda Sag- eng represented the school publica- tions, and the social life on the cam- pus was discussed in short talks by Miss Mortensen, Mr. Melby, and Mild- red Larson. student social director. Prof. H. P. Opseth introduced the musical organizations and explained the ﬁne opportunities for the students to get musical training during their college career. Magne Skurdalsvold and Norman Flagstad emphasized the value of ath- letics among the school activities. “Religious Service”, the last topic on the program, was introduced by Dr. B. M. Christensen and Olaf Hel- land. Refreshments were served in the main hall by Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Carlson and Mrs. Torvik. On Thursday morning Dr. Sver— drup lectured on the topic, “What is Augsburg College? Its History, Tra- ditions and Aims." In speaking on the history of the school, Dr. George Sverdrup pointed out that it is one of the oldest institutions in Minne- sota. The school has grown with the city of Minneapolis. It had its origin at Marshall, Wis, in 1869, in order to train men for the ministry. It later added a college department and was moved to Minneapolis in 1871. Augsburg has now a four year college course with the junior college fully accredited. Its running expenses are backed by friends of the school. The aim of the school, according to Dr. Sverdrup, is a clear cut Christian character, liberated from all sides and free. Its great aim of training men for the ministry has not been neglect» ed, for "Our value to God and our- selves is determined by our value to our brother." Prof. P. A. Sveeggen pointed out the main points in the catalog and advised every student to acquaint himself with this carefully prepared work. On Thursday morning, September 25, Rev. T. O.

The library is in receipt of a gift of one hundred and ﬁftysix new pub- licat'ions from C. w. Jones, manager of the Minneapolis Journal. These books cover the ﬁelds of philosophy, religion, ethics. ﬁction, and criticism. and are all very recent publications. Miss Nora Nelson. County Superin» tendent of Schools at Moose Lake, Mind, is the donor of another gift of thirty new volumes concerning edu» cation. Miss Marion Wilson, member of the Augsburg Faculty, presented to the library a set of books which cover the ﬁeld of history. A set of twelve volumes called The Literature 0/ American Elston, was purchased by the school. This set is a bibliographical guide and will be invaluable especially for general re- ference work in the department of history. A feature which is worthy of note in this set is the number of critical inserts by specialists whose names are afﬁxed. The value of these added volumes can hardly be overestimated. Let it sufﬁce to say that the Augsburg li- brary now contains some of the latest books in every field of learning, thanks to these donors. subject, “Augsburg in Relation to the Lutheran Free Church." In speaking on this topic, Rev. T. 0. Burntvedt based his remarks on Paul’s Epistle to the Phillipians, 1: 9-11. “And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and discernment, so that ye may approve the things that are excellent, that ye may be sincere and void of oernce unto the day of Christ." Unless we are ﬁlled by His love, we and our knowledge will all be in vain. In speaking of the relation be- tween the church and the school, Rev. Burntvedt pointed out how the two are interdependent upon each other. The school was organized before the church, and naturally the church is a product. of the school. Its purpose is to serve the church. According to Rev. Burntvedt the Lutheran Free Church has certain characteristics. The congregation is the body of Christ and it is only by the help of the Spirit that the work can be carried on eﬁectively. No one can know the truth unless he ﬁrst of all knows It should be the privilege and responsi- bility of every individual to bring a testimony for Christ. These characteristics are not pos- was Rev. Him as his Savior. sible without the school, Burntvedt's remark, and the church expects loyalty to these ideals from the faculty and the students.

There is a spirit among professors and students which makes this state- ment justiﬁable. Everyone seems to be ﬁlled with optimism and determination to accomplish great things. We believe that we one much of this enthusiasm to the many new students and new faculty members. We are happy because of their presence and the presence of all the old students who are back. It is after the excitement and hurry of the ﬁrst weeks of school are over and we have settled down to work and study in earnest that we need most to keep up our spirit of optimism and determi< nation. This should not be difﬁcult here at Augsburg, however, be— cause we have various outside activities to prevent school from becoming drudgery. We would especially appeal to the new stu- dents to become acquainted with these activities. so that they also may ﬁnd their places in them and be beneﬁtted by them. Learning is not the sole end of education. While we are in school, aptitudes are developing, ideals are taking shape. and tastes are being formed. Who can say but in the and these do not count for more than the acquisition of knowledge? Augsburg recognizes this and provides the opportunity for a complete edu- cation. This may he ours. if we but enter into the various activi- ties and interests of our school. The inspiring friendship of teachers and the stimulating inﬂuence of fellow classmates. as well as the experience and inspiration gained through participa- tion in worth-while activities, are privileges the values of which cannot be measured. These are things which remain with one throughout one’s whole life, even after the knowledge gained in the classroom may be forgotten. Let us all realize and appreciate the wonderful opportunities given us here at Augsburg. If we will but grasp them with the spirit which has been shown at the beginning of this year, it is certain that at the end, we will be able to look back upon a year of great accomplishments—both for ourselves and for Augsburg. M. S. About the Tours It was encouraging to note in the last issue of “Folkebladet”, our Norwegian Lutheran Free Church organ, the favorable com- ments upon the Augsburg students who have recently visited the West Coast; the Glee Club in 1929, and the Choral Society in the spring of 1930. In the report from Poulsbo, Wash, we read: “The visits of the Glee Club and Choral Society have played their part in awak- ening among our young people a desire to come to our schools,” and again, "The student choirs from Augsburg have been a bless- ing." Reports from faculty members who travelled in the west this summer indicate that our western congregations were well pleased with the visiting students. Not only did they enjoy the music furnished at the concerts, but they also spoke very highly of the fine character of the students who make up the groups. B. H. l’m The Guy I am the unofﬁcial Freshman adviser. ‘ " ' otter to guide any one who asks me to, or is willing to listen. I lift my hands in horror when a poor novice mentions casually that he plans to major in Ugh! I can’t stand that IubJect. I always got poor marks in it. Yes, there was plenty of outside work, but of course I didn‘t bother about that. No, that didn‘t in- ﬂuence my mark; the teacher was prejudiced. Take something easy. Yeah, I just arrived yesterday. It marks you as one of Freshman mentality to come on time. The ﬁrst two weeks aren‘t important anyway. That guy? Oh. he’s harmless. I guess, but I've heard he‘s awfully studious. Whatever you do. don’t be that way, it marks a man. Going to chapel? So long. no, I'm not going. There's no way of checking up on attendance yet. Dis- honest’! Say Frosh, don‘t insuate.

As far as the sophomores are concerned orientation is com- plete (maybe). At any rate, some hundred and ﬁfty students have survived the initiation week and are ready for a year of study at a new home. At least we who have been at Augsburg for a number of years hope that the new stu- dents have already sensed this homelike spirit. To you new students we like to add our expres- sion of welcome, hoping that the Augsburg spirit of Christian love and companionship will make your stay among us a happy one. We wel- come you to share with us the intellectual and spiritual treasures that justify Augsburg’s ex- istence; knowing that, unlike material things, the things of the mind and spirit are never di- minished by sharing, but rather increased. We are glad you came. Overcoming Overclubbing it is gratifying to observe the initiative taken by certain teachers and students to corelate the extra—curricular activities of our college with the academic work. For a long time the problem of ovcrclubbing has threatened the success of almost all our clubs and societies. Social climb- illlr followed with personal pride and prejudice has too often made our clubs nothing but “oﬂicer organizations" whicll do the climbers little good and only alienate the would-be members. The attempt to set up a Student Organization Ollice which will guide the new students into such clubs as they are really interested in and which they will really be able to contribute to as active members. looks like a very desirable and practical one. It looks as though the spon- sors of this organization have found a plan which might silence the justiﬁable complaints of ovel'clubbing and its sins. We and Japan We do not propose to defend Japan in her ag- gression in China. but the thought occurred to us as we have been reading of Western opposi- tion to the menace of the orient. that the very ones who are loudest in their criticism of Japan were innovators in like aggression. Japan is merely following their footsteps. This does not justify Japan. but it spreads out the responsi» bilin of her sins over the occident as well as the orient, Even America is vulnerable. The history of American Imperialism might well be compared to the history that Japan is making todiw. Furthermore. the neo-mercantilism of the na— tions of the haves has left the nations of the have hots \n‘th but one alternative—aggresion. In vain can Japan look for markets for her in dustrial products—her only chance of realizing herdmmofamodern nation witharaised mndard of living.

We quote the following in regard to the girls: Arnie Nilsen~“I think they’re nice." (We’re glad to hear you think, but. where have you been all your lifeT'T'I'!) Harold Ditmnnson—"They are not so bad." (Which ones?) Wendell Tjonﬁml'hose I've seen I think are very nice." (Don‘t you get out in the day timef'l Philip Roberg—“They‘re all right." (tsk . . . tsk . . . such indiﬁerence!) Luther Paulson—“Ninety-seven per cent of the girls in the Northwest are good-looking; the other three per cent come to Augsburg.“ (No com-_ merit.) “Skirts” Johnson—“Oh, they don't all know me yet." (Just wait‘ll they: do! It takes time, though, to ap- preciate the ﬁner things in life.) The girls, too, had a few opinions to venture in regard to the fellows. Opnl Larson—“I suppose they're all right for the ‘average' girl." . . . (What are you, a 4-H Queen?) Helen Sateren—"I don’t know about the college fellows. but those theologs!” (Aren’t you shooting a little high for a freshman?) Agnes Brekke—“Oh, I've seen bet» ter." (Sour grapes?) Inez Heinrichs—“They're all right, but no business sense.” (Wasn‘t the sale a success?) Doris Moe—“I haven't paid par- ticular attention." (You need moe of what it takes.) Catherine Lovaas—“They're all right, but I wish they’d come around. (Really, they are quite shy, Cather- ine.)

Augsburg Elite Then, too, we notice—could we help iti—“K the Augsburg “elite” are here again. . . . You know the theological students and the chair members? But we don‘t mind being Whlt we are, do we fellow commoners? . . . Watch out that the Philistinism o! Carble'l than. and which is still very much in evidence todny. do. not become our dominating characteril‘tic Ibo. . . . Well. this isn’t getting us anywhere. Banner Year Let’s see—this is the banner year for Augs- burg, isn't it? . . . or one of them anyway. Wdl. it should be too . . . look at all the new material there is for the instructors to work with . . . clay for the matters—Let’s hope they vary tho molds a little this year. . . . Maybe they could even dispense with the molds just for an ex- periment. Or could they. . . . One of our Dr.’l was heard to say that even if his religion aim was “terriﬁcally” dumb, at least he had lots of raw material to leave an impression on. Yes. we'd say it was pretty raw, too. . . . We under- stand we have a new Dr. with us this year. . . . Would it be too impertinent of us to take this opportunity to congratulate him? That makes ﬁve Dr.’s.—-Should mean that academic free- dom of thought and speech—freedom of press— and an intelligently progressive interest in poll- tics and social problems, will be more in evidence than ever this year. Let's hope so and do our part to make it so. . . . Practical Religion Coming back to religion again. which i! we only knew, it is the most important thing in all our lives. . . . We understand it is to be divested of its grave clothes. Perhaps in the exhuming process all the artiﬁcial do's and don'ts . . . the Chauvinistic dog'matisms . . . and the imprac- tical theoreticalness will be left in the grave. and Christianity will become for us a Newer and Freer Life in the “Resnurrected Lord". . . . A Life patterned on that of He Who walked on the shores of Galilee and by Living Example showed how physical mental and spiritual im- pediments to a Happy Life could be removed. . . . This would mean a really Banner Year for Augsburg. . . . CDUMBS Believe it or not—one ambitious student claims, in his registration blank. that he was born in 1937. Then there were the two Freshmen boys who took the hint (telLtale grey) seriously and went right to their rooms to wash their towels. (May- be they wanted to get their nickels’ worth.) It may be lair—but one pupil who was taking a punctuation test asked the teacher it he should place a period at the end of web sentence. Evidently the demand for paddles explains the absense of several dresser drawer bottoms in Old Main. AfterOldHaininstaﬂedSkythlMuid Skyhrkqgﬂiephmemeishcretoday.”

VOLUME XLII MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1937 ' Funds Are Gathered For Sverdrup-Oftedal Hall THE SVERDRUP-OFI’EDAL MEMORIAL HALL “We‘re on our way” is the sum— mary given by President George Sver- drup of progress made on the Memo- rial Hall building project. Director Svcrdrup supervises all ﬁnancial and construction phases of the project. Upwards of $25,000 in cash and pledges for the building fund have al- ready reached the Augsburg Treas- ury. Developments in connection with the erection of the proposed dormi- tory have occurred in lightning fash- ion during the past summer. The Annual Conference of the Lutheran Free Church voted in June to build the dormitory during the summer of 1938 at a cost of $125,000, provided enough pledges and cash money were on hand by the spring of that year. Proposed New Dormitory Students and Directors Spend Week-End Making Year’s Plans Formulation of plans for the com- ing school year and spiritual fellow- ship were the purpose of a retreat held at Lake Minnetonka, Septem- ber 18 and 19. The members of the Board of Directors of the Student Society, and heads of several of the student organizations, met with Miss Mortensen, Miss Pederson, Dr. B. M. Christensen, and DI'. Sverre Norborg at a camp on the shore of the lake for the two—day meeting. Saturday afternoon, Dr. Christen- sen spoke to the outdoor gathering lbout Gratitude, Communion, Chris- tian Courtesy, and the Morning Final responsibility and plans were entrusted to the Board of Trustees of Augsburg College and Seminary. Later, Finance, Building, and Pub- licity committees were selected by the Board of Trustees. President Svcr- drup was at that time appointed Di- rector of the project. Augsburg men serving on these committees are Prov lessor Andreas Helland, Dr. B. M. Christensen, and Mr. A. B. Batalden. They all work on the Publicity Com- l'nittee. The ﬁnance committee laid plans for gathering funds for the dormi» tory. A prrlilllinary campaign seeks large sums of money from indivi- duals. The general campaign through— out the church seeks funds from all church organisations and members. The committee at a recent meeting selected the month of November for the general campaign. Plans for the dormitory envision accommodation for 100 men. Each double room will include a sleeping room and a study room. A large din- ing hall, a kitchen, a lounge, and a suite of rooms for the Dean of Men have also been included in the dormi- tnry plans. Memorial Hall will be built in mem- ory of the two outstanding former Watch as the vital elements in the fellowship for the coming year. Saturday evening the informal ﬁre- side discussion centered on social act- ivities—minimum and maximum par ticipation, and coordination and balance among the activities. A rec- ommendation was passed to the facul— ty that a point system for extra-cur- ricular activities be tried on this year‘s freshman class. The group also sought means of Widening in- terest of students outward to city activities and social life, both as a beneﬁt to the student and as a civic inﬂuence. Sunday morning worship was con- ducted by Dr. Christensen and Dr. Norborg. Plans for the opening events of school were discussed Sun- day afternoon, arrangements for re- ligious activities occupying much of the time. The conclusion was reached that during this school year the em- phasis was to be upon the Wednesday evening meeting. Mr. Wold Elected President of I. R. C. pleaidents of the school, Georg Sven. drup and Sven Oftedal. Freshmen See City On Bus Tour A part of the orientation of the new students at Augsburg took place Sunday, September 25. when they were the guests of the Student So~ ciety on a city-wide tour. The three bus loads of freshmen left the cam- pus at 3:00 in the afternoon and re- turned in time for the Sing—song that was held in the Dining Hall during the supper hour. Points included on the tour were the University campus, industrial tier, the Loop, the hke districts, had some of the more beautiful drives of the city. This tour is the second one of its kind, and has been adopted as one of the means uaed to make new Augsburg studean “feel It \‘m" during their stay in the city. Palmer Wold was named president the International Relationship iclub at a special business meeting ‘last Thursday. The other ofﬁcers ,named at that meeting were David ‘Dcrgstrom, vice president; Margaret ‘Krislock, secretary; and Una Lee, correspondence secretary. The I. R. C. has made tentative ,program arrangements for the ﬁrst ,semesteri They are trying to en- gage noted speakers to discuss such issues as Nationalism, Japanese Ag- gression in China, Facism and Com- munism, Cooperatives, and the Court ilssue. Among the speakers whom they hope to secure are the senators Shipstead and Lundeen, Dr. Benja- min, Representative Harold Peterson, Dr. Jesness of the Agricultural Col- lege, and Governor Benson. l The club hopes that :2 its ﬁrst reg- ular meeting this coming Thursday evening, Dr. Krey of the University [will discuﬁ the problem of National- ism in the Modern World. ‘of Employment Bureau Finds Part Time Work For Students Nearly eighty students have taken advantage of the opportunities of- fered by the Employment Bureau and are now working part time in various places of business throughout the city.

The Oles scored a touchdown on the opening play, which completely demoralized the Auggie defense, and then scored another touchdown With- in a few minutes. At this point the Auggies started their oﬁense and drovc 70 yards down the ﬁeld to the Ole 15 yard line, when a 15 yard penalty for holding was called. The Oles resumed their drive in the second quarter, Lecy scoring after SaumerS had made a 30 yard run to the Auggie 10 yard line. New- by and Swanson, substitute backs, also scored gains, each scoring a touchdown to make the score 32-0 at the half. The Auggie defense often stopped the Ole offense in the third quarter, although they got OR for a couple of touchdown runs. At this point Ade Christianson, St. Olaf Coach, saw that the Auggies were pushing the St. Olaf second string around, so at the beginning of the fourth quarter he sent in his freshened ﬁrst team to further run up the score, bringing their total to 58 to the Auggie's nothing. It looked like a bad beating for Augsburg, but the lighter Auggie linc often made things miserable for the Oles, They had three or four good drives down the ﬁeld to their credit some of which should have re- sulth in touchdowns, but for tough breaks. good considering that three new men were used. Gordy Thies, veteran half-back, played one of the best games of his career, contributing quite a bit of ground to the Auggie oﬁ‘ense. Moose Jacobson, playing his ﬁrst college game, contributed some nice playing to the Augg—ie cause until a broken nose compelled him to leave the game. George Kolesar, Chuck Rctrum, Norm Flagstad and Don Forsberg all played good ball in the Auggic backﬁeld. Summary: St. Olaf; #Augs'burg (‘. Christensen LE . . Rnutson H.

Elmer HuSet, pastor at Cal- umbia Heights, has returned to his alma mater, from which he grad- uated in 1914, to take over the duties of Athletic Director at Augsburg. During the past seventeen years he .has travelled a great deal and has had many interesting experiences. Rev. Huset was Athletic DireCtor at Fort Snelling during and after the war. In 1924 he won the box- ing championship of the United States army, and he represented the United States in the Olympic tryouts at Baltimore, Maryland. He has been a member of the polo team at Fort Lewis, Washington, and was Athletic Olﬁcer of the C. M. T. camps on the Paciﬁc coast for four years. During the year in which he was Athletic and Recreation Officer on army ships he travelled forty thou- sand miles. Under General Governor Farrington he served as Athletic Di- rector of boys and Boy Scouts in the Hawaiian Island during the summer of ’23 and '24. During the last seven or eight years he has owned and trained horses for exhibition in horse shows in the United States. His greatest success was “Kismet”, a polo mount which placed third at the Interna- tional Horse Show. During his years with the army, Rev. Huset served regularly as chaplain. Rev. Huset’s athletic program for this year at Augsburg can be sum- med up in his own word, “To en» courage every student to participate in at least one form of athletics or recreation, with the goal in view— athlctics for all, and all for athletics —-general participation rather than specialization.” Don Olson and captain Amundson must be given a great deal of credit for the scrap that they displayed in the Ole game—neither of these two men weigh over 160 pounds, yet they often outplayed their opponents all of whom were 20730 pounds heavier than the Auggie guards. s Don't. think for a minute that the Auggies are through because of their tough beating, because they’re com- ing right back into the Conference, conﬁdent that they will score some upsets before the year is over.

Herb an» swered, “I can’t hurry it, you know how turtles are.” a I think a lot more students should respond to that call for musicians for the “pep band.” Who knows, prob- ably some day an Auggie team may make a trip to California, Texas or Washington. (Who said that?) u Pretty soon it will seem like spring around here when all those “green honnets" start blooming out again. They aren’t made of straw though, so it isn't so bad. a Don’t forget—let‘s have a real big turn out for the Augsburg-St. John's It’s our only home game, so make it a big success.

The “Pep” band is right there folks, and is probably the best that the Auggies have ever had—keep it up. a It was certainly great the way the Auggie boosters stayed behind their team during the Ole game.

REPORTORIAL STAFF llszel llsuge Warren Hanson in old Norum ltenln Llllehel Donald Olson Herbert Johnson Ernest Anderson Eisle Tollefsou welcome With the beginning of a new school year at Augsburg we ex» tend a hearty welcome to all students, both to those of former years and to those who are here for the ﬁrst time. For the new students the past week has been one of difﬁculties in adjusting themselves to the customs and regulations of college life. Everything is bewildering to the college freshman who has left his home perhaps for the ﬁrst time, and homesickness is apt to add more troubles to the already over-burdened newcomer. But our aim is to make you feel at home with us, and we want you to know that we are your friends. We hope that you will learn to love our school as we do. Augsburg has much to offer you, and we feel that much will be accomplished if you will lend a helping hand to her needs. We encourage the new students to become acquainted with the activ- ities of the school, and to feel that they, too, have a place in them. Great things have been achieved at Augsburg, and still greater things may be done if we as students, both new and 01d, accept the challenge that is ours at the beginning of this new year. —M. N. Ruth [Arson Kristofer Hagen Norman Anderson Helen Lee Llllhnrd Gjrrde Mahle ll elmPlaud Clarice ke £00k,ng gorward Fall has come nipping the leaves and ﬂowers with her ﬁrst frosty nights. With this change ill nature’s apparel has come the beginning of a new school term. But as the chilly breath of fall paints over the landscape gorgeous hues of red and yellow it ﬁlls us with a new zeal and purpose. We look back to the drowsy. ' ‘ulnmer evenings. and smile as we again set ourselves to ' of more especially searching for knowledge and a deeper insight into life. Looking forward we anticipate a year full of progress alld enlightenment. We expect that as nature blankets herself with a coveriet of pure and glisterirlg snow. we may be adding to our store of knowledge facts that are true and beautiful. With these thoughts in mind we may hope to reach the spring time awakened in spirit and become better prepared to bear in- tellectual and spiritual fruit. A. F. (9f éhort Coats America loves short cuts. There are short cuts to fame and fortune, to lake Minnetonka, and through the neighbor’s yard. Only occasionally is the longest way round the sweetest way home, and that in itself is a short cut to matrimony. The college person is, perhaps, as interested in short cuts as anyone: but short cuts for him may end in disaster. From a university professor we have it that “ﬂunk” is an active. intransitive verb. In other words, “I ﬂunk,” I am not “ﬂunked.” There are short cuts to ﬂunking also, and it would seem that one really cannot blame the instructor if one succeeds in failing. Some college people are optimistic fatalists. If they ﬂunk, they ﬂunk. Unexcused absences. tardinesses, and incompletes have nothing to do with the fate written in their horoscope. The teacher has it in for them, and it can‘t be helped. It is suggested, if you are really interested in short cuts to ﬂunking, that you make a list of those things which you are sure would aid in the process. What you do next will depend upon whether or not you see the point. —G. J. J. Exchanges College Chips— Professors Nickel and Nelson are Tilt Concordia»— Concordiu is growing. So far there are 402 registered as compared with 401 for last year. The name of the triennial publica» tion has been changed to "The Cob- ber," by a general student vote, Professor E.

Among Ourselves Open House will be held at West Hall on Saturday, October 10. Keep this in mind while you are saving your pennies and nickels. . The seniors have elected as their Senior Jacket Committee: Rose Huf- fey, Lorraine Lund, and Peter Lund. Don't be surprised if at any time you see Peter with a number of 1932 fashion magazines under his arm. . Miss Mortensen entertained the women of the faculty at a luncheon Friday, October 2. t The “Big Sisters" gave a tea for their "Little Sisters" at East Hall on Thursday, September 24. o The “East Hallers" purchased a radio last week and since that time have been enjoying nice quiet even» ings “at home.” 0 A few of the freshmen are already beginning to realize that the sopho- mores are just one class above them, and that “He who eats must work” —even for a bottle of pop. e Margaret Anderson has been elect~ ed House president at East Hall, and Helen Lee treasurer. Doris Nilsen and Borghild Olson compose the House Council. Anna Pederson is House president at West Hall and Aline Johnson treasurer.

NEW BOOKS Blcgcn, Theodore, Norwegian Illigra- tion to Amm'l'm, 1825-1860, North— ﬁeld, Minn., Northﬁeld Historical Association, 1931. Prof. Blegen, who is a graduate of Augsburg College, is at the present time associate professor of history at the University of Minnesota and as- sistant superintendent of the Minne- sota Historical Society. This is the ﬁrst of two projected volumes in which the author traces the immigration of Norwegians to this country and their settlement here. The book discusses the motives lying behind the migration, the atti- tude in Norway concerning it, as well as the economic and social aspects of pioneer life. a Hutchinson, W. T., Cyrus Hall Mc Cormick, N. Y., Century Co., 1930. McCormick is the name of the man who invented the reaper in 1831. This biography of him is a trust- worthy account of his ambition, eagerness, and restless desire to create. The result of his genius in invention is found in the general westward movement of the Amer- ican farmer and the development of the agricultural idea of the reaper in the mind, the working out of that idea into a useful object. and its sale and use by the consumer. o Keyser. Leander S., The Philosophy of Christianity, Lutheran Literary Board, 1928, This book is a well Stringed treat- ise written in favor of evangelical Christianity. The Christian World View is upheld and opposing systems are etfectively brought to light. The aim of the book is to emphasize the beauty, consistency, and adequacy of the Christian system of truth and salvation. Did You Know That— Percy Downing was born in Eur land!

Chapel Challenges It was on a feast day that the chic! priests and elders persuaded the multitude: to choose Borasz instead of Christ. Great decisions or changes in your lives are also made on your feast days. (Matt. 27:15-26). o Whom have you chosen, Chn'et or Bumbbus.’ . o o "Thou shalt not steal." This com- mandment also applies to the ﬁmo that God has given you. Living an easy life is stealing God’s time. . Are you stealing God’- the? Your neighbor’s time! u o c There is a heavenly vision for every one of us if we will but see it. The Lord will provide it. (Act: 26:19). . Can you sou with Paul, "I was not disobedan unto the heaven.- lv vision!” ’ O O “Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead." I! Timothy needed‘ this advice. how much more do we not need it'! (2 Tim. 2:8). I Jesus Christ is the em to- day—Hie remedy '0] trouble. 0 t ,0 The sowing of knowledge concerns the head of man. We believe true knowledge is divine. All true knowl- ege has come from God. a Have you sought the Lipid in your search for knowledge! o o a Great spiritual leaders usually have a rich spiritual background. Samuel’s pious mother had a great deal to do with preparing Samuel for his work of bringing about a great religious revival in his day. Many young people have received rich spiritual heritages from their parents. t What have you done with your spiritual heritage?

It was Dan Elmer's debut in the college ranks in which he deﬁnitely showed the con- ference that his team will be a fac- tor to be seriously considered for the Ill-10 season. The St. Paul school started their sole march for a tally late in the ﬁrst quarter and poked the ball over just after the start of the second period. The “Auggies” over determination and lack of experience caused a Pi- per score at this point. It was three consecutive off-sides and three short gains, one by Hamline's Bill Spence and Jack Campbell, that crushed Augsburg‘s hopes of a clean slate. Augsburg only threat came in the re quarter when “the ﬁghting crew" were stopped on the N yard line where they lost the ball on downs. From the ~15. Mart carried the bull to Hanlline’s 28, where Thompson made it a ﬁrst down. Jim Gibbons went to the :20 yard marker on a buck and then a pass, Mart to Gibbons. carried the ball to the H where the Hamline defense stopped Augsburg's offense cold.

Mick Mutters The old “blower” is back at his post with the same old palaver. 1 hope you gullible and docile peruscrs of this column can swallow this stuff for another year. Should the mate- rial be indigestiblc. just pass it off, with all due respects and considera- tions for the source of information. It has been reported. however, that because of increased advertising this column cannot be printed. Close adv mirers of this column could be a great help by donating to the Augsburg Echo the sum equivalent to the ad- vertisement. In this way the column will continue, and again you can reap the beneﬁts for another year. To write on the Echo staﬁ this year is none other than Vernon Blik- stad the News Hawk who blew into town the other day after spending a busy summer in Fergus Falls. He is not only a member of the sports staﬁ', Golden Gopher New Auggie Coach None would think of calling him anything but “Dan”. On ﬁrst meeting and talking to him one senses im- meditately that addressing him as Mr. Elmer or as Mr. Dan Elmer would be too formal and out of place. After speaking to him for a while one realizes that he is not as soft4 spoken as he ﬁrst appeared. probably becau he has warmed up to one of hi. fa orite subjects and is telling you the good tasting qualities of some new dish of food, or the merits of some insurance policy, or the ad- vantages of 6-2-24 football defense. Dan graduated from North High in June 1934 and decided to continue his work at the University of Minner sota. Herc he continued to be promiv nent in Y. M. C. A. circles as he had been in high school. Here he became a member of the Phi Delta Theta fra~ ternity in which he still takes an active part. He played center on Gopher football teams and earned three letters. Dan still attends tht University. taking courses in phy— but will serve as publicity director of the school. “Blik” is to write for the Star-Journal and Tribune this school year, which should give Aug - burg plenty of publicity in all ac‘iri» ties. This fall a concentrated cani- paign is being formed to give publi- city to the newly formed football team. Last year Augsburg became known far and wide because of concerted drives by “Blik”. If Augsburg is to grow and expand, an adequate publi- city campaign must be conducted, not only in the athletic department. but in forensics, and music. and the dlﬁerent minor ones. So "My Friends”, let’s back “Blik’s” newly formed publicity campaign. for it might moan publicity for you, and just think what the home town folks would say My what a popular fel- low he is. JGob". AUGSBURG ECHO Augsburg’s Elmer and Schmit Star—Journal lholﬂ sical education, while coaching here. Dan is now associated with the Monarch Life Company for whom he sells insurance. This fact makes it necessary for him to get to diﬂ‘erent places very quickly, which he does by driving rather fast in his Vv8 Ford coupe. Just lately Dan received a “yes” from Miss Helen Hortel of Minne- apolis. and for a wedding present the Auggie football men sent him a pair of baby overalls. In the pockets were stuffed one dollar bills, half dollars. quarters, dimes and nickels totalling ten dollars This is just one of the many indications Dan has received from his football men showing they think he is tops as a coach Roast beef, mashed potatoes, and gravy is Dan's favorite dish. Already Mrs. Elmer is urging Dan to buy a whole side of beef She ﬁgures by buying in larger quantities they will save enough for her husband to buy her a new hat, The football men like Dan very much and will be trying their hard- est to give their new coach a success- ful season. “A” Club to Present “Dramatic Farce” The "A" Club, a comparatively new organization at Augsburg, cele- brates its third birthday this year. This organization is Composed of former and recent letter winners. and has as its main purpose “to keep the athleti of Augsburg on the highest po..ible plane, and to further promote the truths and undying spirit for which Augsburg stands." Projects for the year may include another “Dramatic Force" for which the “A” club has already established fame. The annual steak supper a' Homecoming and a big feed at its annual spring meeting are highlight- on its calendar. The Club has been active in the past and will undoubtedly be more active in the future with Augsburg’s lesumption of intercollegiate foot- ball competition.

Augsburg hasn't had competitive football on the inter- collegiate basis for ﬁve long years This year Dan Elmer had to start from scratch with only a few men carried over from the intramural squad last season. Still Mr. Elmer, a former Big Ten football star, is not crying too loud: he likes his new position very well.

Waldemar Anderson and Harold Grindal traveled through the north central states doing evangelistic work, singing, and selling religious literature. Alfred Sevig, who this fall en- tered the seminary, spent the sum- mer as a representative of the Lu~ theran Free Church Publishing Com- pany, selling books and showing movies of school life and also of the various Bible Camps. Vernon and Joseph Erickson and Clement Gisselquist of Augsburg were also on tour this summer doing evangelistic Work by singing and bringing personal testimonies.

At the ﬁrst meeting for old mem- bers only, Dr. Nash showed the slides he took at Yellowstone this summer. This organization is primarily for students interested in science of some sort and who have B averages schol- astically. Dr. Nash, head of the Biology de- partment, spends his summers in Yellowstone National Park as nat- uralist and guide. His position en» ables him to make extensive collec- tions of ﬂowers and ﬁlms which are of great value to Botany and Biology students at Augsburg.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE: $1.00 PER YEAR “Seeing all things through the eyes of Christ.” A Hand Of Welcome We desire to wish a hearty welcome to all new students, Frosh and upper classmen. If the tribulation which you Freshmen are in at pres- ent seems irksome, remember you will soon be admitted as full-ﬂedged Auggies and there‘ll be another set of Plebes next year. Augsburg offers you an opportunity to ex- amine yourself. Take stock of your abilities and handicaps. Check your energy against your aims. What are your ideals? Give yourself di- rection. Augsburg extends a welcome to work. She desires that you achieve something valuable, something permanent and places her faculty, her library, her laboratories, her athletic activities, her extra curricular program, at your service. All this she can do but she cannot make you work-that one essential must come from with» in you. Seize the opportunity to develop into a balanced personality. There is current in the world today—the dan- gerous idea that one can get something for nothing. Scholastically, what one gets for nothing is not retained,—it is a loss, Ancients as well as moderns have believed in a philosophy of destiny. This philosophy says that I am destined to become such-and-such and therefore it will be futile for me to work for or against fate. Fortunately this attitude has given way to the healthier one of a philosophy of work. “Man is largely what he wants to be." Information, Please ! One of the aims of the editorial page of the Augsburg Echo is to inform. With this objec- tive in mind the paper has accepted member- ship in the Student Opinion Surveys of Amer- ica. These Surveys attempt to measure the pub- lic opinion of students throughout America. They deal with a wide range of topics: morals, politics, war, crime and a great number of ques- tions of present day interest. We will receive 25 ballots each month to be ﬁlled out by Augs- burg students. A staff member will interview the students and tabulate the results. The ﬁnd- ings will be forwarded to the headquarters of the Student Opinion Surveys of America for national tabulation. In each Echo a table of questions comparing Augsburg opinion with na- tional opinion will be published. By means of these polls the Echo hopes to bring its readers an interesting, accurate digest of what the people on our campus and other American campuses think about vital problems. We would enlist your wholehearted cooperation and support in “putting this thing over." Another feature of the editorial page is the “Special Events” feature which will inform you of lectures, athletic and cultural activities, which are worth attending. Frequently students are so busy on the campus that they overlook hap- penings at which they would very much like to be present. This feature is intended to ﬁll just such a need. AUGSBURG ECHO Augburg’s SEVENTY-FIRST Year The school year which opened on September 18 is Augsburg's seventy-ﬁrst. At Homecoming this fall, to be held the ﬁrst week- end in November, we are to celebrate our seventieth anniversary. Seventy years of Christian educational activity, many-branched! Seventy years of teaching service by a large group of devoted Christian teachers! Seventy years of questing for Truth by class after class of eager, life-hungry students. Seventy years of sac- riﬁce on the part of thousands who have loved Augsburg and sup- ported her work. Seventy years of prayer and soul-work by those who sought also through Augsburg to advance the Kingdom of Christ. . . . We who are privileged to begin this year at our school are recipients anew of a great heritage, far greater than we our- selves at present appreciate or understand. Others have labored; we are entered into their labors. This anniversary year is a year of difﬁculty and of travail in the life of the world. As we resume our studies in comparative peace and plenty, millions of our fellowmen are suffering and dying. Uncertainty and anxiety stalk in countless places, and freedom is a thing unknown. The deprivations and trials of others should make our privileges loom the larger to us this year. Of him to whom much has been given shall also much be required. Conscious of being heirs of a rich Christian treasure, conscious of being men and women of high privilege in a world of bitterest need, may we all, students and teachers, be found faithful in our places of trust during this school year! Bernhard Christensen. STUDENT SYMPOSIUM Voluntary contributions to the Dear Editor: Echo are appreciated.

We, the stu- dents. must remember that the team must have support and cooperation from us as well as from themselves. So, let's back them up 100% and go into every game with them with a determination to win. Han-let Hellcckszm. Dear Editor: My personal opinion is that inter— collegiate football is a great thing for Augsburg for three reasons. Firstly, it removes the idea of “a house divided against itself," as in intra-mural football, and makes for a spirit of unity. Cynic on Football Secondly, it will provide an evenly- balanced inter-collegiate schedule throughout our school year, which will undoubtedly attract more men to our student body. And thirdly, it will give Augsburg added publicity—a thing important to the success of any growing school. Wesley Gullickaon Dear Editor: That “great American outdoor sport" has once again taken its place in the intercollegiate program at our school. It is one which we as stu- dents have greatly missed in the past ﬁve years. With the spark and spirit which Augsburg displays we should be able to once again build up a ﬁght- ing team, peppy-loyal student sup- port, and a good following among the alumni and friends. I hope that it will encourage the enrollment of true»hearted athletes and scholars at Augsburg in future Aside from the obvious advantages of sitting outside in a two hour goose-ﬂesh drizzle and “putting away" enough peanuts to give one permanent acute indigestion, there are many subtle pleasures like watch- ing that 200 pound Gustie tackle “take down" our medium weight line men. The vague thrill (chill) which one feels as numbness creeps slowly from toes through arches, ankles and up to the knees until when you stretch at the half you think your legs are wood. Then there’s the ex- hilerating feeling of being hunched up on the bleachers With an assort- ment of coats on your back and try- ing to peer through the opening in the collars.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER It, 1939 Chapel Challenges They that are with us are more than they that are with the enemy. 0 We must learn to see with the eyes of the soul so that we may be aware of the great possibilities that there are. If we go to Jesus with our questions, we can be sure to receive that helpful, encouraging answer. “Except one be born anew, he cannot see the king- dom of God." a “God so loved the world, that He gave His only be. gotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have eternal life." Kostic Komments One of the most stirring challenges confronting our generation is the call to enroll as intelligent partici- pants in the life-and-death struggle against war. The task is a tremendous one and it demands the clearest thinking. the rarest kind of courage, and the most sus- tained loyalty of which we are capable. No half-heart- ed or passive measures will do in a struggle whose ﬁnal outcome may determine the very fate of civilization it— self. Nor can we postpone action in this vital issue since the forces of propaganda are already at work seeking to create a state of mind conducive to partici- pation in war. Future generations will help sling-ing reproach upon our generation if we fail them on the issue of war. War is crime, mass suicide if you will, and we cannot sidestep an issue that will mean the de- nial of all that is worthwhile to posterity. In its ﬁnal analysis war is a state of mind and the most powerful factor giving rise to such a mentality is propaganda. “Give me two weeks and the proper machinery and I'll change the so-called mind of the American public on any given subject." This statement came from George Creel, head of the United States proe paganda department during the World War. His com- mittee sold America on the slogan of making the world safe for democracy and the same techniques and methods may serve as precedents to sell America the idea of sav- ing the World from totalitarianism. Besides the press and the movie very eﬁective weapons in the last war, .I still deadlier weapon has been added to the reportoire of the propagandists, the radio. Nearly all have access to a radio, and it is quite generally agreed that the spoken word has approximately ﬁve times the effectiveness of the printed word. The propagandist with such a weapon at his disposal has one of the most efﬁcient single agencies to mould the public mind in the interests of war. With the enemy so Well entrenched we cannot help but wonder if continued peace has any chance of success. Fortunately there are an abundant number of oppor- tunities for each individual to take an effective part in a peace crusade. We can beat the propagandist at his own game. We, too, can use the very same agencies to mould the public mind in the interests of peace that the propagandist uses to create a war mentality. Dis- cussions, lectures, letters to newspapers, congressmen, and friends, the radio, the movie—all these are avail- able as avenues of approach to the public mind. But a further step is required if public opinion is to do« minate government policy and that is appropriate or gsnization. Continuous pressure must be brought to bear upon public oﬂicials to counteract the propaganda of armed preparedness and chouvinistic nationalism. —1. E. H.

Dr. Karl Ermiach, head of the Ger- man department, returned on Sep- tember 19, after a harrowing cross in; from Europe. Dr. Ermiach left Hamburg August 24 on the German ship Hausa, which was called back to Germany when only one day out. He returned to Hamburg, but on advice of the American consul went to Denmark. A German pilot was required to guide the SCANYORK through the mines at the entrance of the Baltic sea. During the crossing 75 German warships were sighted laying mines. And the ship crossed on a northern route to avoid submarines. “All of which made us rather nervous, as you can well imagine," Dr. Ermisch said. “I found a Germany entirely dif- ferent from what I had seen 29 years ago—not only that the country had turned from imperialism to so- cialism, but the people had changed, too. It was indeed a revolution, a national rebirth when national so- cialism was inaugurated." “We here in America will naturally object to the empha- sis on ‘national’, but socialism, deﬁned by the Nazis as unre- served service to society, does not seem too objectionable to me... “The vast majority of Germans who know Hitler, almost idoline him, other: regard him as coming from and belonging to the abyss. “The soalled democracies may will have a chance to crush Hitler. In 10 years Germany would have been too strong for any combination of powers to subdue," he said. LSA Features Ashraam Quartet The first meeting of the Lutheran Student’s Ass ation was held in Chapel lust Fri ay evening, Sept. 22, at 8: 0. Several songs were sung by the audience after which Conrad Jergenson gave the invocation. Dr. B. M. Christensen, president of Augsburg College, in his address related the history and purpose of the Lutheran Association acquaint— ing the new students more fully with the activities of the organiza- tion. Other special features of the pro- gram consisted of selections by a quartet that participated at the Lu- theran Student's Ashram at Hickory, North Carolina last August. The quartet is composed of Myrus Knutson, lat tenor, Iowa State Uni- versity; Gordon Egertson, second tenor, and Erling Thompson, second bass. St. Olaf College, and Robert Pearson, ﬁrst has Augsburg Col- lege. All except Robert Pearson, who is now attending the University of Minnesota, are enrolled this year at Luther Theological Seminary in St. Paul. Lester Dahlen was in charge of the services. Juniors Lack Lucrc Kenneth Carlson, president, called a meeting of the Junior class for the purpose of obtaining ideas as m ways and means of raising money. A committee was chosen to investi- gate possibilities for a clas program. The committee consists of Catherine lavaaa, Delbert Rhodes. and Richard lawman, The committee is busy booking Thursday sales dates and is looking into ﬁnancial possibilin‘es of a dra» matic performance. The money is being raised to meet the extra er- Seniors Slate Wiener Roast The 193940 Senior class held its ﬁrst meeting under the leadership of President Irving Hoe] on September 28, 1939. Laurence Rydquist was made treasurer in the absence of Er- ling Tungseth, who transferred to Concordia College. A weiner roast will be held at Hid- den Falls on Friday, October 6. Ar- rangements for other social activi- ties which will occur during the course of the year, are also in the making. Various committees were elect- ed: Pins and rings, Russell Helleck- son, chairman, Venoy Glendenning, Henry Chapman, and Roy Gordon: Sweater, Lucius Heusser, chairman, Agathe Kleven, and Bernell Borstad; Announcements, Roy Maids, chair- man, Clarice Nundahl, and Adelaid Johnson; Pictures, Alice Backstrom, chairman, George Anderson, and Ralph Sletten. Busse, Relig ous Emphasis Speaker Pastor G. W. Busse is to be at Augsburg during our Religious Em- phasis Week, October 9 to 13. Plans are being made to have Rev. Busse speak for two Chapel periods, to or- range opportunities for personal in- terviews, and to have meetings in the evenings from seven until eight. This week, set aside especially for the emphasis of religion, should MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1939 All Time High Registration Record Promised Everything points to a all-time record in registration at Augsburg. 408 students have been registered in the first two weeks of school. At the corresponding date last year the ﬁgure was 363 or 45 less. Prof. Mar- tin Quanbeck, registrar, voiced the opinion that the number of students at Augsburg would pass the 450 mark this year. The Freshman class of 181 is the largest in the 71 years of Augsburg’s existence. Last year's Green num- bered 155. The ﬁgures for the other classes are: Sophomore 97 and for '38 87 Juniors, 65 as against 70. Seniors 59 as compared with 48 for 1938. This year there seems to be quite a gap between the sizes of the Sophomore and Junior classes, while the Senior class has held its own. We also have 5 special students at Augsburg this year. The theological seminary has 14 students to date, which is 2 above last year’s 12. This means an in- crease of 16 2/3 ‘7r. Augsburg’s students hail from 14 states and 4 countries. Approx- imately 67 per cent of our students are native Minnesotans. Minneapolis has the largest representation of any city with 109, According to latest available statistics at least 1 % of arouse great interest among the stu- dent body. Starbuck, Minn., is on our campus (9 people). INTRODUCING NEW AUGSBURG PERSONALITIES Now that a new semester is under way and things are almost back to normal, you probably have noticed several unfamiliar faces here and there on the campus. Not only are there many new per- sonalities in the student body, but also several new faculty members and workers. REV ARNOLD HELSETE Nearly all of you have had some contact with our Personal Director, Rev. N. C. Anderson, either through registration, or in the mad search for employment. Rev. Anderson is a graduate of Augsburg. class of ’34. He has spent four years as a pastor in Tacoma, “Wash, since leaving the Seminary, and incidentally, he is glad to be back with us again. Miss Anderson is the lady in the registration oﬂice. By the way, hasn't she the patience of a saint, to be able to smile after wading through registration blanks for two weeks? She, too. was a student here at Ange burg in 1934, hailing originally from Menominie, Wis. Miss Chilson is assisting Dean Momnsen over in Morton Hall. She formerly taught at Augustana Aca- demy, and at present is attending the L. B. 1. His Wyman, our dietician. is a penseaofﬂicyear. graduate of the University of Iowa. Before coming to Augsburg, she was employed at the State Hospital in Clarinda, Iowa. Miss Wyrnan was particularly impressed by our grand dining hall and equipment. She com- mented too, on the nice people she has met here at our college. While We're on the subject of food and dining halls, we can‘t forget to mention Mrs. Nelson, formerly of Nellie Steven’s Cafe, here in Minne- apolis. She is the pastry cook, and from several reports, it must be cone cluded that she need not take a back seat for no one when it comes to cooking. Our new gym teacher, Miss Bergo, is a graduate of St. Olaf. “I have been favorably impressed by the ﬁne Christian attitude found here at Augsburg," says Miss Bergo. Luther Strommen and Lawrence Gudmestad are in charge of the Em- ployment Bureau. They have found work for some seventy students, and that is a record that certainly speaks for itself. Rev. Arnold Helseth, formerly a teacher at Oak Grove Seminary (Little sister school of Augsburg) and also an Augsburg graduate, is the instructor in philosophy. He re- places Rev. William Siege], who is furthering his own studies. Promising Outlook For Debate Season “Although the debate teams have not yet been organised, some of the prospective members seem promis- ing," states Everald Strom, a member of last year's debate team. Tentative plans have been made for Augsburg's debate teams. They will participate in tournaments at Winﬁeld, Kansas, Concordia College, and St. Thomas College. Mr. John Acker will be coach again. Mr. Thomas Gibson is assist- ing with a class in argumentation and debate. DR PENG FU Clean Cut Your Closets A call is issued by the women of Augsburg to all the students and members of the faculty for assistance in the furnishing of a social or club room. NUMBER 1 Dr. Pens Fu, Chinese Christian Leader, Speaks Oct. 19, 20 Olson LFC Missionary Will Translate Talks Dr. Peng Fu, president of (he Lu- theran Church of China. will be a guest of Augsburg College on the nineteenth and twentii‘th of Octobur. He will be the convocation speaker on the nineteenth, and on the «lay fol- lowing hc will speak in chnpcl. Rev. Arthur Olson, a Lutheran Free Church missionary from China, now home on furlough, \vlll interpret Dr. Pong Fu's messages. Dr. Pong has been in tho Unitvd States four months. He has mndv extended tours in the \Vcst lind East where he spoke at the L. S. A. Ash- lzlm in North (‘nrolimL Julian, Hanan. China, i Dr. Pl‘ng's home address, and thi. is his ﬁrst trip abroad. He has a son and two grand daughters back in China. Dr. rung was president of the llonnn»Hupch Synod (or a number of years before he lit-came president of the Lutheran Church of China ill June, 1937. The Chinese clergyman received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from St. Olaf College at the com- mcncerncnt exercises last June. Dr. Peng is not certain just when he will return to China. Plans are such that with the co- operation of everyone, a rummage sale can be held down on Cedar. Mildred Ryan, W. S. G. A. presi- dent, says, “There is nothing that will not sell. Anything you don’t want someone else will—so come on fellows." The girls want ties, suits, shirts, books, lamps, hats, and shoes. They want old jewelry (ten cent stuﬁ is 0.K.) hats, dresses, shoes,7just anything goes. 0h, yes—and how about some vol- unteers for helping move that furni- ture from Old Main down to Cedar? All this for a club room. There is no question about the necessity of such a room, so let's all get behind the idea and push. Sophs Plan Frosh l iation Party Harry Sorenson, president of thc Sophomore class, called a meeting chieﬂy for the purpose of making plans for tho.- Freshman-Sophomore party. Wallace Roscbei'g was chosen treasurer to succeed Robert Retrum, who did not return. An executive committee of ibru‘ Ruth Homplunll. d Tom Vulvik were chosen to 3+ t the class ofﬁcers throughoul the year. 2|.\ Sigfricd Aadland, an Dahlcn Revamp: Elaborate Plans For Homecoming Deﬁnite plans are already under way for Homecoming.
