A year at Bethel — in pictures and words. A year to remember.
A year of study, of happy fellowship, of learning while serving.
A year in which we worked for Jesus and He worked in us.
A year in which we bacame more "His" and His will became
more of a reality in our lives.
Green trees changed to yellow and soon, it seemed, we hurried
out with cameras to get pictures of the first snow. The campus
draped in white was a memory we took with us on Christmas
Vacation and now once more the soft brown earth shows.
Pictures and words can only give a faint idea of the way a year
at Bethel has widened the horizon of our minds, the joy of "talk
over coffee", or the fun of cheering for the team at a game.
Pictures and words can't reproduce our concerts, our chapel
programs, our plays, busy committee meetings, and classes.
A year at Bethel — for some the last. Now they will go forth as
Bethel graduates and find in new paths the truths they dis-covered
here — how God's hands work with our hands to make
the life He has in mind.

herever students gather to discuss their
days at Bethel, it is almost certain that
the name of Miss Effie Nelson will be
mentioned as a favorite teacher. Her
quick wit and humor have won for her a
place in the hearts of all students in her
German classes who appreciate her both as a real
friend and able teacher.
In her capacity as Dean of Women, Miss Nelson has
shown by her friendly manner in counselling and ad-vising
that the girls on Bethel's campus are "her girls".
Even in matters of necessary discipline the girls have
found her to be most considerate and fair in her de-cisions.
These friendly qualities, coupled with a clear
and warm Christian testimony at all times, whether
in class or in the Coffee Shop, have endeared Miss
Nelson to all of her students and faculty colleagues.
Her faithful service and willingness to cooperate
in any way possible with the campus activities of her
students have been a constant reminder and challenge
to others that Miss Nelson leaves little to be desired
as a Christian teacher. Therefore, we lovingly dedicate
the 1951 SPIRE to our friend and teacher, Miss Effie
V. Nelson.

usJ MEMORIAM
This year another student has been called
home from our campus. Our hearts were left
sorrowing at the passing of our friend and fellow
classmate, Elmin Forssell. We shall always re-member
his outstanding talents which included
a beautiful voice and superior mind. We recall
that his whole being was a perfection of God's
creative power.
Reason prohibits our understanding God's
choice in calling when Elmin was on the brink
of a life of service. The Psalmist has said, "As
for God, His way is perfect". We imbed Elmin's
memory in our hearts as a channel where God
leads to greater paths of service.

DEAN OF THE COLLEGE
C. EMANUEL CARLSON
The day of graduation has proved to be a day
of keen disappointment in the experiences of
many college students. Having worked hard for
four years toward an objective upon which all
energies were focussed, they arrived only to find
that graduation did not produce those over-whelming
delights which had been anticipated.
There was neither a pot of gold nor a haven of
peace at the end of the rainbow.
Upon graduation, however, I wish each of you
the satisfaction of a realization that you are
equipped for more work and for harder work
than you were when you started your college
career. If, in addition, you have found a sense
of direction in life, a sense of obligation and
dependence, which calls for the full use of your
capacities, your college days will have been
worthwhile.
Growth is a divine law and a divine method.
This law ends at the grave, and not at com-mencement.
When you have explored the Lord's
potentials and the Lord's imperatives, you are
ready for service.
DEAN OF THE SEMINARY
EDWIN J. OMARK
"A good minister of Jesus Christ." These words
of the Apostle Paul express an ideal and a chal-lenge
to every Seminary student. You Seniors
who go directly into pastoral or missionary work
will particularly sense a burden of responsibility,
than which there is none greater. To win and
watch over the souls of men, this is your task.
Bring to it your deep devotion, sanctified gifts
and trained minds. Seek not ease nor the praise
of men but only the will of God. Then He will
bless your ministry, and those of us who have
our posts of duty here at Bethel will pray and
cheer you on.

Welcome to Bethel
FRESHMAN
WEEK
All Aboard for Trout Lake
As a climax to freshman week three bus loads of
still slightly dazed freshmen were whisked off to Big
Trout Lake for a week end of inspiration and fellow-ship
on the Minnesota Baptist Conference camp
grounds.
Both Dean Carlson and President Wingblade gave
talks aimed at giving the new students advice for
a good start. Gene Johnson enriched his messages
by his original chalk drawings. As guest speaker
Roger Youngquist, a former Bethelite and present
General Conference pastor, had much of help and
inspiration to offer.
Upperclassmen under the chairmanship of Jim Rentz
hod planned a full schedule. Testimony meetings and
the Sunday afternoon panel discussion gave Bethel
newcomers a chance to hear what their new friends
were thinking and an active sports and social program
helped them get thoroughly acquainted.
Saturday night's fun night featured a play "Little
Nell" with such stars as Ronnie Johnson as Nell and
Al Windham as hero.
At the candlelight testimony service one new stu-dent

DEEPER LIFE
WEEK
Talk of revival was everywhere in the Twin City
Area when the posters first appeared on the
bulletin boards announcing Dr. J. Edwin Orr as
our deep life speaker from September 25-29.
The religious council chose II Chronicles 7:14 for
the theme of the week and an air of expectancy
awaited the Irish-born evangelist.
Dr. Orr in a past visit to Bethel in the Spring
of 1949, had seen what he believed to be the
beginning of a student revival movement which
is still active in the Christian and secular schools
of our country. Revival was a pertinent thing to
Dr. Orr and he had much of significance to say
about it both as a current movement and as
something pertinent to our individual lives.

COMING
'50 HOME
A pudgy Indian Squaw stood outside her
tent on the lawn of Bodien Residence des-tined
to win the dorm decoration award
for the girls. Transformed cars encircled
the red brick buildings. Bethel's Home-coming
for 1951 was well under way.
The night before, Host and Hostess How-ard
Carlson and Florence Nordstrom had
welcomed returning alumni at a program
where Missionary Dale Blork, then recently
returned from China, talked on the state
of the church there. The Junior class added
to the China interest by a skit depicting the
struggle of a young Chinese student with
Communism.
A bonfire and pep rally had prepares
all for the afternoon's football game where
Bethel beat Northland 13 to 7. Members
of chapel choir went home victorious on
two accounts, as they bore away the float
trophy.
Saturday evening's meeting introduced
Bethelites to a trio they were to hear much
of in the year to come—Valdeko Kangro,
Kaljo Raid, and Mildred Bisgrove. Stanley
Paulson gave the message of the evening.
The alumni lost to the varsity in the basket-ball
game which followed.
Students did all they could to give the
alumni a homecoming that would live up
to its theme, "For His Glory."

The entire Bethel family had the rare
privilege of enjoying an evening of
chamber music Friday, November Third,
which was presented by a new ensemble
on campus composed of members of the
Bethel faculty. Selections by Buxtehude,
H?ndel, Brahms and an original compos-ition
by Mr. Raid were given. We thank
God for these artists and consider our-selves
fortunate to have their talent in
our midst.

THE SERVANT
IN THE HOUSE
The Junior Class presentation for this year was
a three-act play written by Charles Rann Ken-nedy.
The setting — England, the date — the
early 1900's, the time — an early morning in
Spring.
The story centered around Manson, a butler in
the home of Reverend William Smythe, and the
incidents which led to the strange reunion of
three brothers.
Under the capable direction of Miss Rusinko,
and with the fine acting of the cast, "The Servant
in the House" was enjoyed by all.
The cast included Arnold Regier, Willard Hed-berg,
Ann Radunz, Mary Quernemoen, Don Barn-hill,
Don Lindgren, and Tom Persson.

The December meeting of the
Swedish Club was an evening
of music featuring a trio and a
quartet from the second year
Swedish class. Axel Bjurholm
who had just come from Sweden
gave a short talk on the country
and its people. A candlelight
Smorgasbord ended the evening
which was enjoyed by everyone
who attended.
CHRISTMAS
PARTIES
FRESHMAN
BANQUET
The freshmen turned out in good number for
their big night of the year. The dining hall took
on a new festive air as their dinner began. Jim
Rentz was borrowed from the Seminary for Mas-ter
of Ceremonies. Speaker for the evening was
Myron Voth of the St. Paul Bible Institute who
gave a stirring message woven around the
theme the freshmen had chosen: "We Are His
Workmanship". Vocal and instrumental music
was provided by members of the freshman class.
Pat Noland and Don Richardson put their best
dramatic selves into their different readings.
Those who attended reported a refreshing spirit-ual
time as a result of their getting together.
Featured at the German Club Christmas party
was a newly formed German band. Christmas
carols were sung by the entire club and special
vocal numbers were presented. Hannah Plaut
told of her childhood Christmas experiences in
Germany. The meeting was closed by the sing-ing
of "Stille Nacht" accompanied by Hannah
and her guitar. Lunch was served in the dining
hall.
After a delicious lunch around gaily decorated
tables, the Spanish Club had their Christmas
party in the recreation room of the Men's Dorm.
Vocal music was given by a quartet. A Christ-mas
skit, in Spanish, was presented by several
members of the club. Christmas carols were
sung and as a climax to the meeting, the Pinata
was broken, and the scattered candy on the
floor was quickly picked up by the group.
STUDENT
FELLOWSHIP
One of the highlights of the student fellowship
meetings this year was the program presented
by the Palermo Brothers. Louie and Phil sang
many favorite hymns in English, Swedish and
Italian, and their selections on the accordian and
guitar were enjoyed by everyone. They had
many interesting stories to tell of their experi-ences
in Italy where they had recently conducted
an evangelistic tour. Those who attended re
ceived a blessing and saw the need of that
country which is so hungry for the marvelous
message of Jesus Christ.
There were many other interesting and inspir-ational
student meetings. Several outstanding
films were presented during the year's activities,
including "Lord of All" and John Bunyan's "Pil-grim's
Progress".

Camp Iduhapi saw a new, but never a jollier
bunch of sophomores, as another class arrived
on a cold January day for their annual retreat.
Especially ambitious, this robust lot walked the
last mile in the snow dragging their suitcases
behind them.
The theme: "That I May Know Him" was made a
realization as classmates worshipped and fellow-shipped
together. Messages were brought by
Warren Magnuson, guest speaker.
Skating, skiing, tobogganing were the sports of
the day. Morning devotions and vesper services
provided the spiritual background.
Al Windham presided as master of ceremonies
at a talent program Saturday night. Besides
the varied vocal and instrumental numbers, War-ren
Magnuson delighted everyone with a humor-ous
reading in which he portrayed a Negro
preacher being ordained.
Sophomores all agreed that it had been a re-freshing
time from which they could return with
new vigor to books and "things like that".

RETREAT

Missionary Week at Bethel turned our eyes to
foreign fields — India, Japan, China — white for
the harvest. By films, by displays, by messages
from recently returned workers, we were once
more made aware that the gospel of Christ was
for all the world.
Making up a versatile band of missionaries were
August Berg, Sten Lindberg, Eric Frykenberg,
Dale Bjork and Bengt Anderson. These men from
many different fields found time not only to
speak in chapel and evening services, but also
to hold conferences about missionary work with
individuals and groups.
Dale Bjork gave a realistic but challenging pic-ture
of China and the effects of Communism in
this field. All the missionaries were intensely
aware of the part missions was playing and the
part it could play in current world affairs. Much
practical advice was given for those considerin,,
the foreign field or any Christian service — ad-vice
which was essentially what we needed to
die to self and live every moment for Christ and
His work.

Pastors and laymen from coast to coast, includ-ing
some well-known seminary professors, flock-ed
to Bethel's halls for the Founder's Week pro-gram
celebrating the Seminary's eightieth year.
The dates chosen coincided with the birthday of
John Alexis Edgren, founder of the Seminary.
Representing other seminaries were Dr. Clarence
Roddy of Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary,
Philadelphia; Dr. Harold Lindsell of Fuller Theo-logical
Seminary, Pasadena; and Dr. Lloyd Perry
of Northern Baptist Seminary, Chicago.
Former president of the Northern Baptist Con-vention,
Earl V. Pierce, was also among the
speakers. Two speakers familiar to Bethelites
were Curtis Akenson and Sten Lindberg. Ed
Nelson represented God's Invasion Army and
Arthur Christenson the work of the Baptist Gen-eral
Conference in California. Bethel professors
who took part were Bernard Ramm and Clifford
Larson. Dr. Ramm gave the message on the
theme which had been chosen for the week,
"Remember Jesus Christ".
With such men of God as these, the days could
not help but be a time of inspiration and re-newed
consecration for the many pastors and
Christian workers who attended.

DEEPER LIFE
WEEK
Coming to Bethel as a familiar speaker Carl Lundquist
left his busy Chicago pastorate to be the Spring
Deeper Life Week speaker. Mid-quarters were post-poned
as students made time in their schedules to
attend the meetings. Much prayer was made before
the week began, including an all school prayer meet-ing,
asking that God would speak to many hearts.
Rev. Lundquist portrayed a real understanding of
young people and their problems and tried to meet
them in his daily chapel and vesper talks. In a humble
and direct way he met many of the student's spiritual
needs. Many students took advantage of the oppor-tunity
to have prayer with Rev. Lundquist and profited
by his personal counsel. Many expressed the joy of
finding a deeper life in Christ. A deeper sense of
the meaning of spiritual living pervaded the campus
after the meetings were over, evidence that God had
outpoured His blessings in a real way.
PROSPECTIVE
Nearly two hundred prospective students made their way to
Bethel for the special days when they would be guests of the
administration. The "prospectives" were made to feel at home,
welcomed in both dormitories and classes, and kept busy by
special social activities. During this time the famed Coffee
Cup Game was held and the trophy awarded to the victorious
Chapel Choir team. The faculty had their fun at the end of the
third quarter when the ladies of the faculty provided refresh-ments
for them. Friday evening was given to a duo-piano
recital featuring professors Mildred Bisgrove and C. Howard
Smith. This was followed by a singspiration. An afternoon
program to acquaint "prospectives" with the school included a
play, a debate on the place of television in the life of a Christian,
and a vocational guidance movie.

SEMINARY
BANQUET
The 1950 Seminary banquet, held
in Dayton's Red Room, was easily
the highlight of the year.
Following the theme of the ban-quet,
"To Know Him and Make Him
Known", Dr. W. Robert Smith, phil-osophy
professor at Dubuque Uni-versity,
gave a spiritual challenge
which was a fitting climax to a
well-planned evening.
Earl VanDerVeer served as
toastmaster and music was fur-nished
by Ray Bodin, tenor, and
Carol Landberg, violinist.
SEN►OR
During the first week in March seniors could be
seen everywhere carrying small packs of white
cards in their hands giving earnest salestalks to
as many Iowerclassmen as they could find. Due
to their industry many turned out to hear the
Augsburg Choir in a sacred concert presented by
the Senior Class as their annual program to raise
money for the class gift.
The young men and women from Augsburg
College have traveled extensively throughout
the Mid West. The evening was one where all
enjoyed the spiritual inspiration of the music of
the church. Those who attended felt prepared
for the near Easter season because of the devout
spiritual music presented.

Books, studies, and finals over
— that's the time for college and
seminary students to take ad-vantage
of nice warm weather.
The opportunity soon comes, for
each year just before school
closes there is an all-school pic-nic
at Taylors Falls, fifty miles
north and east of Saint Paul.
Busses and cars are packed with
lively "kids", and soon they are
hiking around the rocky cliffs

or canoeing in the swirling Saint

use of the too short day by play-ing
softball and volley ball or
just talking to their friends be-fore
they have to part for the
summer. The day is ended with
devotions, and soon everyone is
on their way home again, full
of wonderful food and pleasant
memories.
ALL SCHOOL PICNIC
As hosts to the graduating seniors and
sophomores, the junior and freshman
classes made sure that the graduates
and friends had an enjoyable time.
As usual, toasts were given, wills
made, and stories told, all lending to
the gaiety of the evening. Bob Man-tzke
and his Holsum Bread quartette
furnished the special music, and
Bruce Compton of Macalester College
was the main speaker.

For the second time the picturesque White Pine Inn on the banks
of the Saint Croix River was chosen as the place for the colorful
Graduation Banquet, more commonly referred to as the "J. S.".
Those attending found the twenty mile trip to Bayport, Minnesota,
where the Inn is located, well worth the trouble. The formal
attire of the students was shown off to the best advantage by the
charming colonial atmosphere which the Inn supplied to this,
the grandest occasion of the school year.
GRADUATION BANQUET
BACCALAUREATE
The First Baptist Church of Minneapolis
was the scene of the 1950 commence-ment
exercises. Half an hour of music
featuring the Sacred Strings of Mr. Raid
and Mr. Kangro with Professor Smith
at the organ proceded the exercises.
During the program special music was
presented by the Chapel Choir and Male
Chorus. Dr. Robert G. Lee, distinguished
author, pastor, and evangelist of Mem-phis,
Tennessee, was the main speaker.
His message was entitled "Christ Above
All". Dean C. E. Carlson presented the
diplomas for the college, and Dean Ed-win
Omark for the seminary. President
Wingblade conferred the degrees. After
the benediction the graduates left the
church, diplomas in hand, facing many
fields of service.
The 1950 graduating class, faculty mem-bers,
students and friends of the school
met together on Sunday, May 21, for the
annual baccalaureate service held in the
college chapel at 4 P.M. President Wing-blade
opened the service with prayer
after which the chapel choir sang two
numbers of praise and devotion. Fol-lowing
this, Dean Carlson of the college
and Dean Omark of the seminary read
Scripture and led in Prayer. The speaker
for the occasion was Rev. Lester Thomp-son
from Muskegon, Michigan who de-livered
a challenging message on the
text, "Spring up 0 Well". After the
service, refreshments were served in the
dining hall.

Athletics
ATHLETIC ADMINISTRATION
The 1950-51 athletic program at Bethel was run very smoothly
under the very capable guidance of Coaches Del Ray Peterson,
Lynn Lundin, and Elmer Fischer. Peterson served as the athletic
director and head basketball coach. Football mentor duties
were in the competent hands of Lundin, who guided the
school's gridiron men to the best record in the five years of
Bethel football. Assistant coach Fischer aided in both football
and basketball.
Activities were also carried on in baseball, tennis ,golf, and
gymnastics. The women's program consisted mainly of basket-ball.
A large all-school intramural program was under the
leadership of Donald Dye.
Present plans call for the immediate construction of the new
Bethel College Field House. This unit, urgently needed, will
help improve the school's athletic setup. The new gym will
consist of a regulation size basketball court, with seating on
both sides of the court with a capactiy of eleven hundred
persons. This gym is possible only because of the attitude of
the school board, conference officials, and churches in looking
into the future of the athletic program at Bethel. Athletics,
usually not too prominent at Bethel, are gaining a more
equal position in the forward moves of the school.
FOOTBALL
Young, but capable coach Lynn Lundin directed the
1950 eleven to the sparkling record of five victories and
only one defeat. Handicapped in having a small squad
to work with, Lundin nevertheless molded his material
into a smooth-working outfit.
After disposing of Rochester in the opening game,
the team ran into a tough Worthington unit and suffer-ed
their only loss. Then the Indians roared through
the remainder of the season, rolling over Ely, Northland,
Morris, and Austin. In winning five of six, the Indian
gridders amassed 111 points on seventeen touchdowns.
The opponents were held to only four touchdowns and
a total of 27 points. In the six games over 1200 total
yards were gained. Next year's prospects depend
largely on the war situation and the manpower in-volved.
However the 1951 squad will have a high
goal to aim for — that of equaling the fine record of
the 1950 team.

BETHEL 0, WORTHINGTON 14
Playing under the lights at Worthington, the Indians
went down to their only defeat of the season by a
two touchdown margin. The Worthington eleven
is yearly one of the outstanding junior college teams
in this area. Bethel has never defeated Worthington
which uses a tricky formation called the XYZ system.
Under this setup, the backfield men line up, all
facing opposite directions, with only one man
facing the line.
Except for the first and last seconds of the game,
the Indians were their opponents equal in all areas.
But those two times, each covering less than a
minute each were enough to send Bethel down to
defeat. On Bethel's opening kickoff to Worthington,
the victors evaded the entire Indian eleven and
crossed the goal for their first touchdown. Then with
less than a minute remaining in the final period,
a Worthington pass connected from the Bethel 20
yard line for their second score.

Flashing a brilliant offensive attack before a dazed

Highland Stadium. With five men sharing in the
scoring, the Indians just couldn't be stopped in
their smashing runs, passes, plunges, and overall
brilliant play.
Duke Fredericks opened the scoring in the first
period by grabbing an Ely fumble in mid air and
going two yards. Next Dick Chadderdon grabbed
a beautiful pass from Bob Schumacker and ran
thirty four yards for the second score. The entire play
covered 63 yards. Then Schumacker reeled off a
19 yard run for another TD and Chadderdon kicked
the extra point to make the half score 19-0.
Ron Skoog, quarterback, started the second half
in sensational fashion as he took the opening
kickoff 83 yards down the sidelines to give Bethel
its fourth marker. - Climaxing a third period 43
yard drive, Don Sprott sprinted 19 yards for still
another score. After Ray Brace recovered a fumble
in the end zone to score two points, Schumacker
again crossed the goal line to wind up the the
scoring. His run covered 53 yards. John Viren
added the extra point on a plunge to give the
Indians a total of 40 points.
In the season opener, the squad worked together
very fine, though five of the starting eleven were
newcomers. Watching Bethel win were about
500 fans. Shortly before the first half ended, the
Indians scored on a perfectly executed pass play
which covered 63 yards. Bob Schumacker tossed the
aerial to Dick Chadderdon who scampered for the
score. Chadderdon booted the extra point also.
The second half found Bethel in possession of the
ball most of the time in their opponents half of
the field, but because of the many penalties imposed
upon the Indians, they were unable to make head-way
for a time. With the fourth quarter barely
underway, the Indians marched twenty yards with
Pals, Schumacker, and Chadderdon carrying. The
final smash of one yard was made by Pals. The
extra point try was wide. No progress could be
made by either team for the rest of the game.

victory. Soon after the second period
opened, the Indians gained possession of the pig-skin
and on their first play from scrimmage, Bob
Schumacker, aided by fine blocking especially by
Bob Carlson who threw a key block, dashed 67
yards to score. The extra point Was missed. Later
in the quarter with two minutes left, Northland
scored on a pass which covered four yards. The
extra point was missed. Later in the quarter with
two minutes left, Northland scored on a pass which
covered four yards. The extra point was good and
it put Northland in front at the half, 7-6. In the
third quarter, Bethel scored the only other marker
of the game. The Redmen marched 33 yards in
nine plays to go over for six points. Bob Schu-macker
also scored this touchdown in a short
plunge of three yards.

Cliff Pals Bethel finished its 1950-51 cage season with a record
fullback of eleven victories against seven losses. The team
scored 1,105 points against their opponents 971
points. The cagers started off the season on the
wrong foot in dropping their first three games.
Superior State Teachers edged the Indians by just
two points in the season's lowest scoring game and
Northwestern tipped Bethel by only one. The Red-men
won only two of their next five. Then the
team hit upon the right combination to win nine
in a row before dropping the season's finale to
North Park, 70-69 at Chicago. The Indian five hit
62 points or better in all of their last ten games.
They were in the sixties seven times, the seventies
twice, and hit a new Bethel scoring record of 89
points against Bethany in overtime on February 9.
Next in the path of the Bethel team was Morris,
who soon wished they had only been onlookers, as
the Indians romped over them. Clarence (Red)
Anderson scored the first TD on a pass from Cliff
Pals. Next, Ron Skoog scored on an eleven yard
run, which was the final push of a 66 yard drive.
Bob Schumacker charged twelve yards to scoring
territory for the third Indian score. On the third
play in the second half, Dick Chadderdon took a
wide lateral and crossed the goal line on a play
that completely fooled Morris. The team also scored
in the last quarter to end the day's scoring.

the night contest at Austin. Don Sprott and Ron
Skoog scored the touchdowns for the victors, while
Dick Chadderdon made both extra points. After
three quarters, Bethel led 14-0, but Austin scored
on long passes in the last period. Both teams dis-played
a fierce type of football as they tackled
savagely and blocked expertly. Several players on
both sides were injured in the fray.

Coach Fischer led his team throughout the season
which was climaxed by a huge 94 point total
scored against Calvary. Luther downed Bethel in
the squad's initial game at New Ulm. Superior
proved to be too much to handle, as the team
dropped a 62-39 decision. Then came a one point
win over Lowry Avenue Baptist and a two point
loss to Calvary. Four victories in a row closed the
season against Northwestern, Edgewater, Fourth

high for one game was 28 points scored against
Luther. He hit consistently for fifteen or more
points each game. Coming along fast toward the
end of the season was Ralph Martin at center. He
hit his peak in the North Park game, scoring 25.
Pete Unruh was Pierce's running mate at guard
and finished with a nine point average. The for-wards
were Art Hage and Gordy Johnson with

'50 BASEBALL TEAM

gymnasts in a dive for Bob Earl.
GYMNASTS PERFORM
Although defeated more often by the weather than any other
force, the baseball team otherwise gave a fine performance
for the 1950 season. The weather forced shortened spring
pre-season practice and also the cancellation of some games.
The record hung up by the team for the season was five
wins against two defeats.
In the first game of the season, Luther fell victim to a
hustling Indian squad, 5-3. The Bethel team then knocked off
Concordia 8-4, but in the next contest were downed by North-western
4-3. In a very loosely played tilt, Bethany picked off
the Indians 9-8. Eleven errors were recorded in this game,
six charged against Bethel. Then the diamond men took their
last three games, winning over Northwestern decisively 8-3,
downing Bethany 3-2, and outscoring Luther 11-9. Bud Eklof
and Ken Greenman handled the pitching for the Indians.
Although only in their third year of gymnastics, this new
campus group carried on a full program of activities. The
program consisted of two divisions: the Roman Ladder Act,
and the Tumbling Acts. The Roman Ladder Act was worked
on for some time before the fellows gave it to various audi-ences.
Again this year, they appeared at sporting events,
including a Laker basketball game and the Coffee Cup Game.
Marlin Nelson directed the act which has proved to be very
popular. Working out a full program of tumbling, the group
gave fine exhibitions throughout the year. Several new
training belts for flips were added to the equipment. Those
participating were: Marlin Nelson, Cliff Smith, George Martens,
Wally Anderson, Roger Jacobson, Loren Duryee, Dick Lovell,
Cal Anderson, Cliff Vennerstrom, Ed Viren, Bud Erickson, and
Dwight Johnson.

The Bethel girls basketball team went through another season.
Coach Fischer led the girls team in 1951. The record for the
year was two wins and three defeats. The team lost to
Northwestern twice. Fairview Hospital also notched a win
over the squad. Wins were recorded over the Farm Campus
team and the Mounds Midway group. Those on the team:
Marge Johnson, Merilyn Dahlquist, Nettie Dvirnak, Pearl
Ohlin, Barb Port, Lorraine Pepper, and Carol Asker at for-wards;
Ann Higbee, Ruth Martinson, Audrey Samuelson, Gerry
Daley, Eunice Hult, and Doraine Anderson at guards.
CHEERLEADERS
Always a colorful part of the athletic program, the cheer-leaders
once again this year cheered at all athletic events.
Responsibile for getting the students to cheer, they performed
their duties in fine style. Present at all games, cheering the
team on to victory, inspiring the players with their spirit
describes this group. Football and basketball were the two
main sports at which the girls appeared. Several fellows also
were on the cheering squad at the start of the year, but
were unable to keep up their duties. Wearing the red
and white costumes this year were Gerry Daly, Virginia
Nepstad, Lorraine Friberg, and Marlene Berry.
The 1950 golf team organized, though few in number, and
had several matches. The weather interfered somewhat with
the schedule. Roger Hedberg, Cliff Anderson, George Visel,
and Frank Schlader composed the nucleus of the team. Golf
is a comparatively new sport at Bethel and interest is not as
high as in other sports. There is no coach for the team and
competition with other teams is limited.
TENNIS
Tennis for 1950 was successful to a limited extent in that the
season was very short. However, the team won several
matches from foes in the Southern Minnesota Junior College
Conference. Playing on the team were player-coach Roger
Berg, Bob Frykenberg, Gordon Berg, and Rod Anderson.
Prospects for the 1951 season look good with Roger Berg
and Bob Frykenberg back and many new prospects interested.

A well-rounded Intramural program was carried on
at Bethel during 1950-51. Under the leadership of
Don Dye, the program was divided into fall, win-ter,
and spring activities. Touch football occupied
the spotlight in the fall, and the eight teams
participated with much enthusiasm. The West team
dominated the scene with a perfect record of seven
wins in the regular play, and two victories in the
playoffs. West's closest challengers were Illinois
and East. Basketball was the big sport in the
Intramural system with play in the league running
from December to March. West once again proved
themselves by taking the championship. PlayofF>
were held in basketball in late March. The third
of the major intramural sports, softball, was played
in the spring. Also on the program was ping-pong
and handball.
INTRAMURAL
PROGRAM
A tense moment in an Intramural game finds all
eyes on the ball as it heads for the basket.
"3or we are Nis workmanship
created in Christ A'SlIS
lotto good works...."
Ephesians 2:10
Bob Daley shows the form of a ballet dancer as he
throws the ball to a teammate after getting a rebound.
Under the present Intramural setup, the entire
student body is eligible to play on an Intramural
team. Teams are determined acording to the
sections of the country . Participants in the program
play on the team corresponding in name to the
section of the country they are from. Teams are:
East, West, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan-Wisconsin, St.
Paul-Minneapolis, and Minnesota. A Faculty team
also plays basketball only.
Outmaneuvering his opponent, Paul Wick gets set to gather
the pigskin in for a touchdown for St. Paul-Minneapolis.
Organizations
,
Christian approach to democracy—that's what we
see in action in our student council. Under the wise
counselship of Dean Carlson and with Al Windham,
Russ Johnson, Eleanor Johnson, and Jim Rentz as
devoted and capable officers, this is the group
which seeks to lead the affairs of our life at Bethel.
Representatives are sent to the council from each
class and many organizations on campus so that
the group really represents the varied aspects of
school life.
The council as usual did a fine job with plans
for Homecoming and Prospective Students' Day.
This year the campus leaders got together under
the direction of vice president Russ Johnson and
formed a new constitution for the organization to
bring up its aims and practices to the enlarged size
to which Bethel has grown in recent years.

Dormitory life with its happy community existence is
not without its problems. But problems are the
speciality of the dormitory councils where students
themselves seek to regulate in a fair Christian way,
the rules under which they are to live. Working
together with the housemother, Mrs. Helen Otto, super-visor
of men, Mr. Harold Lidbom, Dean of Women,
Miss Effie Nelson, and Dean Carlson these councils
help to make Bethel's dormitories a happy place to live.

president, has sought to heighten the interest of
Christian service, individual devotional life, and the
Christian testimony of the school as a whole. Deeper
Life Week both Spring and Fall are under the super-vision
of this group.
RELIGIOUS COUNCIL FOREIGN MISSIONS FELLOWSHIP
Under the direction of Maynard Johnson, president,
this group has promoted Bethel's missionary interest.
The monthly fellowship meetings, the weekly prayer
meetings, the $5000.00 goal for missions this year, as
well as the Missionary Emphasis Week have each con-tributed
to the heightening of students' concern and
support for foreign missions.

CHRISTIAN SERVICE COMMITTEE
"Serve Now" has been a motto in school this year,
and the Christian Service Committee under the leader-ship
of Dan Seagren gives students the opportunity to
serve in many ways. Gospel teams have been sent
from Bethel this year as well as many Sunday school
and vacation Bible school workers. A tract team of
various students have faithfully spread the gospel by
means of tracts coupled with personal testimony to
places where it is needed.
The importance of having a time of day spent alone
with God has been the burden of the Devotional
Committee this year. Everything has been done to
encourage this practice among students from private
conversation to a skit in chapel. Under the able leader-ship
of Kenneth Gullman a mimeographed weekly
sheet was put out to aid students in their private
devotions.

Eastward bound the chapel choir stood erect in their
maroon and gold trimmed robes as they sang a
farewell concert for their fellow students before start-ing
out on their big trip.
Professor Howard Smith had directed this group as
they sang in various churches in the Twin Cities. The
chapel choir had also provided music for the two
promotional banquets during the year, which were
excellent singing opportunities in preparation for the
spring tour.
A mixed quartet and male quartet were featured in
the concert program that took the chapel choir to the
coast. The group traveled to Connecticut, Massachu-setts,
New York, and New Jersey giving testimony to
the Lord not only in song but in personal words during
the program. Concerts were held in churches in
Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin as they travelled
east and returned.

With memories of a wonderful three-week trip which
took them to the Pacific Coast in June still fresh in
their minds, the Male Chorus reorganized in September
for another great year.
Despite difficulties in finding a satisfacotry practice
hour, the follows met in small groups for rehearsal
and soon sang in a Chapel service. The chorus, under
the direction of Nels Stjernstrom, also sang at Founder's
Week and at various Twin City church services.
Trips for the year were restricted to short week-end
trips in which the chorus sang in Duluth, Superior, and
Sandy Lake. Several spring trips were planned as the
SPIRE went to press.

week trip through northern Minnesota and Winnepeg,
Canada. Enriching the chorus trip were the trio
numbers by Elaine Holmquist, Lenore Anderson and
Ardis Anderson. Piano solos were rendered by Nadine
Westin. Miss Westin and Ardis Anderson both ac-companied
the chorus on the piano.
A quartet from the Male Chorus composed of Dan
Seagren, Jim Rentz, Bruce Woodman and Dave Englund

THE CLARION
Getting story assignments while waiting for a meal check in
the dining hall, scribbling ideas in any notebook you happen
to have along, hunting for a strayed piece of copy while
proof-reading, getting fingers sticky with paste, trying to
explain things to the printer—all this and more is involved
before a freshly printed Clarion can be slipped into each
student's mail box.
Editor Roger Hedberg and the staff have endeavored to
give to Bethel not only news but a reflectition of itself as a
living academic unit. It has tried to give Bethel a voice and
also a vision of a greater Bethel for the future.
Working together in a real bond of Christian fellowship
the Clarion staff has enjoyed the smiling amicable leadership
of editor Roger Hedberg, the keen understanding wit of
Assistant Editor, Margaret Schffler, and Feature Editor Mar-jorie
Ford, and the peppy enthusiasm of Cliff Smith, Sports
Editor. Above all the staff has appreciated the friendly advice
of David Guston, advisor and assistant librarian.

Resolved; "That the Non-Communists nations should
form a new international organization," was the nation-al
debate question for this year. The forensic activities
of the year also included discussion, extemporaneous
and impromptu speaking, and after-dinner speaking.
Under the skillful direction of professor Harold Bernt-sen
the varsity debate squad composed of Wendell
Anderson, Jack Jensen, Tom Persson, and Clifford
Anderson established a very commendable record.
Bethel again engaged in the leading national intercol-legiate
competition as represented by Notre Dame,
University of Wisconsin, and University of Chicago.
The squad successfully participated in the following
annual invitational tournaments: the Discussion and
Debate Conference at Iowa State Teachers College, the
Red River Valley Forensics Tournament at Concordia
College, the Eau Claire State Teachers College Speech
Meet, the Northwest Debate Tournament at St. Thomas
College, the Delta Sigma Rho Tournament at the
University of Wisconsin, and the Minnesota State Foren-sic
Tournament at the University of Minnesota.

"Toward Speech Perfection," the meaning of thbir
Greek letters, is the aim of Bethel's speech club.
They have purposed to develop excellent Christian
leadership in the field of speech by including all
phases of speech in their programs. Extemporaneous
speeches, humorous debates, after-dinner speeches,
orations, discussions, practical parlimentary pro-cedures,
and readings are included in the evenings
activities. At each regular meeting pro-term officers
took over the duties of chairman, secretary, and
timekeeper. The president for the year has been
Thorleif Aunevik, and Mr. Maurice Schultz has been
their advisor.

Under the leadership of philosophy professor Robert
Otto and Roger Hedberg as chairman, the Pro-gressive
Discussion Group has met bi-weekly to
discuss subjects ranging from Communism, theo-logical
problems, and pacificism to problems of
sociology and philosophy. The only requirement is
that the subject be vital for today and that the
members freely express their opinions. As a society,
this group contributes a real intellectual spark to
the school's activities.

CAMERA CLUB
This newly organized club on campus is open to all
with an avid interest in photography. Lectures,
movies, field trips, and informal discussions all
have aided members to increase their ability in the
art of photography. With Thure Erickson as their
President the group sponsored an all-school snap-shot
contest and as a special project has ,enlarged
the facilities of the dark room to provide greater
service to the school.

The Swedish Club met once a month with at least one
Smorgasbord scheduled during the year. Students and
faculty members gathered to learn more about Sweden,
its people and customs. Outside speakers were often
invited to tell of experiences which they have had in
Scandinavia. The meetings always concluded with an
informal social time around a cup of coffee.

GERMAN CLUB
Monthly luncheon meetings were attended by those
with an active interest in the German language. Under
the leadership of Johannes Niemeyer, programs were
planned which featured speakers from Europe. Used
clothing was shipped to two former Bethelites, Jim
Merrill and Kenneth Norquist, for distribution in their
Baptist relief work in Germany. The strong interest
and participation in the club by the students is due to
the friendly spirit of Miss Effie Nelson their professor
and advisor.
SPANISH CLUB
"Buenos Noches, Senores y Senoritas," and the Spanish
Club was in full sway. Meetings conducted in Spanish,
movies of Mexico, and speakers who were acquainted
with Latin-America, helped to further the understand-ing
of the Latin-American people as well as their
language. Barbara Port as president presided over the
meetings and Miss Lillian Ryberg acted as advisor.
