A "Meals for Millions" dinner
will be sponsored by the religious
committee of the student senate to-morrow
evening in the dining hall.
General Mills has initiated the
"Meals for Millions" program to
help other nations of the world
maintain health standards by sup-plying
an inexpensive, nutritious
meal for their people.
A special formula base made by
General Mills that provides one
third of the daily nutrient needs
of the average adult and costs ap-proximately
three cents is the main
course.
Those choosing to participate in
the program will sit in a special
section of the dining hall during
the regular evening meal.
Cost for students not on the meal
plan is $1. Students with meal
tickets may present them as usual.
Money for meal tickets will be re-funded
to the religious committee
and forwarded to "Meals for Mil-lions
Incorporated," which will
distribute it to the needy.

Co-directors for the program are
Jan Aiton and Lynne Stapp. The
ernmental service is the purpose
of this meeting.
During the conference, stu-dents
will observe officials in all
branches of government, listen
to discussions by leading con-gressmen,
attend committee
hearings and tour the city.
Qualifications for attendance are
a B average in the previous sem-ester
and completion of a course in
American government or American
history. The students must also be
interested in public affairs, in
teaching in the social science field
or in entering governmental work.
If a significant number of stu-dents
are interested in attending,
a delegation from Bethel will tra-vel
to the conference.
Costs will be $27.50 for
room and board while in Wash-ington,

Responsibility Determines
Chapel Attendance Policy
In its policy concerning chapel attendance, Bethel college
stands somewhat apart from other evangelical institutions of
higher education in not making such action compulsory, and
this is one area of which the student body can be sincerely
appreciative.
It is encouraging to be able to attend such services free
from the psychologically depressing thought that it is the same
as another required class period and to find that the atmos-phere
of worship is not violated by a staff of workers busily
checking seat numbers to determine who has escaped.
Under such an arrangement, responsibility is placed with
the integrity of the student, who must ultimately make the
final decision of whether or not to attend. No one is naive
enough to demand one hundred per cent compliance with
such a ruling, and at this point the student must be left to
determine the legitimacy of his own non-attendance.
Student cooperation with the policy this year has been
fairly commendatory. Admittance to the college implies basic
agreement with its procedures, and since the value of this per-:
iod of general reflection is almost unanimously conceded, stu-dents
must share the responsibility for attendance whenever
possible.
On our campus, the chapel hour is used for two inter-related
purposes. The first, and most obvious, is to provide
a specific time during the day in which the student can seek
a personal confrontation with God through the act of corporate
worship. The other occurs when the hour is devoted to special
convocation programs where the student is challenged to re-late
his Christian experience with contemporary culture.
A minor change in the current situation might be war-ranted
in that when encountering such a flexible program, one
would request that a schedule of chapel speakers be issued
weekly to enable the student to prepare for the type of pre-sentation
which he is to meet.

Kennedy's Cuban Action Tests
Christian Ethical Justification
by Paul Carlson
A responsible Christian recog-nizes
his obligation to, justify every
act he commits. Ideally, he
thoughtfully tests his operating as-sumptions
to see whether the ac-tions
they dictate deserve the
blessings of God.
In recent years, no greater test
of his ability to find divine sup-port
for his social ideals has risen
than in the problem of whether
or not President Kennedy was
right in the eyes of God as he
moved in the Cuban affair three
weeks ago.
Three ominous rationalizations
have appeared to cloud the issue
of Christian justification in this
particular issue.
The first is the statement that
the President had to move in order
to gain the respect of the world to
get the Soviets to leave Cuba and
to halt the onslaught of Commun-ism
in the western world. This
statement is irrelevant to the issue
of moral justification.
Its assertions come under the
headings of political and military
necessity. Although Christians may
disagree with the manner in which
Communists behave, the manner
in which we disagree is under the
scrutiny of God.
A second argument contends
that the Soviets always back
and the Bodien dormitory base-ment—
afford shelter possibilities.
Of these, Mr. Glader feels the col-lege
basement (post office and
coffee shop level) is most suitable
for shelter revision. With the in-stallation
of a ventilating system
and generating plant, shelter ca-pacity
in the college building would
approximate 160 persons at a cost
of about $1600.
"I BELIEVE the Bodien dormi-tory
basement could also afford
good shelter for a large number
of students," he states, "but this
would necessitate extensive modi-down
in the face of determined
military opposition. This claim
also lacks relevance to Christ's
will.
It errs in asserting that the end
justifies the means, a doctrine we
have found most distasteful in the
ideology of Communism. For the
Christian, the means are an end.
Third and concommitant with
the first fallacy is the exclama-tion,
"It worked!" Hindsight does
not change the morality of a past
action. If one concludes that the
President was guilty of insensi-tivity
to God's will three weeks
ago, he is guilty today, regardless
of the apparent consequences poli-tically
and militarily.
If digression is permissable, a

fication and expense, depending on
administrative decisions."
With limited available space and
a large student body, the commit-tee
recognizes the impossibility of
providing maximum protection
during a disaster. It feels, how-ever,
that insofar as it is finan-cially
and materially possible,
Bethel should make shelter pro-vision.
Militarily, the shelters are in-tended
as protection from "fall-out"
rather than from a direct
blast; they could also be valuable
in case of fire, flood, or other nat-ural
disaster.
"OUR PRIMARY desire," says
Mr. Glader, "is to create an aware-ness
of our program on campus.
We have recommended that college
and seminary personnel be edu-cated
with reference to the real
possibility of war, the goals of
communism, personal survival pro-cedures,
and Bethel's immediate
civil defense plans."
The committee hopes to hold a
civil defense convocation and in-itiate
distribution of pertinent
survival literature, much of which
is available locally. "We may also
advocate the construction of shel-ter
areas as part of buildings plans
for the new campus."
With administrative approval,
the presidents of the Edgren and
Bodien dormitories will be added
as student committee members,
providing a direct communications
line from local CD headquarters
to on-campus students and staff.
Such a direct line could save time
and conceivably lives in the event
of disaster.
"We realize," concluded chair-man
Glader, "that we're not ade-quately
equipped for any large-scale
shelter provision. But our
limited ability does not limit our
responsibility to prepare where we
are able. We take pride in being
one of a few Minnesota schools
with an active concern for civil
defense preparedness."
face of an ostensibly futile world
situation are I think apropos.
The Chinese-Indian war has forc-ed
Nehru and his people to ex-purgate
the strong Communistic
ideals that had in recent years tied
them to the Kremlin. Meanwhile,
the Soviet Union, while supplying
some weapons to Nehru, has half-heartedly
committed itself to the
Chinese.
It seems likely that this is a last
feeble attempt to gain the confi-dence
of Mao and the other radi-cal
Marxists.
The chance that the Soviet Un-ion
will itself take part in this
activity, thus pressuring the Uni-ted
States and insuring eternal
emnity with Nehru, are slim. Once
again Khrushchev is forced to use
rational tactics instead of militant
Marxism of the Chinese variety.
at some point characterize the
Christian.
I feel I must respond to what
appears to me to be the endorse-ment
of certain activities which,
while not out of keeping with the
concept of liberal arts education,
become questionable to one who is
concerned to add to all of his ex-perience
the dimension of his
Christian faith.
MY CONCERN lies at the point
of student leadership which in
many instances feels that its con-tribution
to the liberal arts is best
realized by viewing activities from
a kind of amoral perspective,__ the
value of these activities lying not
in their moral and spiritual dimen-sion,
but in their value as a broad-ening
effect.
A case in point in the reply
given by the CLARION editor to
a concerned student who, in
questioning a social which in-cluded
popular music of ques-tionable
quality, asks, "Is this
necessary on a Christian cam-pus?"
Part of the reply was the ques-tion,
"does one individual have the
right to expect others to be limited
by his personal values?" At this

Students wandering through the
college building's sub-basement
this week have likely been con-fronted
with an oddly-shaped ply-wood
container affixed to the west
wall.
Mr. Gene Glader, physical educa-tion
instructor and Civil Defense
committee chairman, explains the
box and its contents:
"BETHEL'S SUB-basement level
was given a top shelter rating by
the local Civil Defense office, en-titling
us to survival supplies for
as many people as our shelter area
can accommodate. We have stored
these supplies—medical and radio-logical
kits, food, sanitation equip-ment—
in this area where they will
be accessible when needed."
Mr. Glader's committee, composed
of Robert Glaser and Eunice Peter-son,
was created last year to for-mulate
a civil defense policy for
the college. Bethel's buildings were
rated as to shelter suitability by
the local CD offices and modifica-tion
of available areas was con-sidered.

point I must ask, to whose values
does this refer?
IS IT to those of the students
which resulted in his choice of a
Christian campus? or to those of
the senate members who have
judged it to be a good Christian
liberal arts experience to be ex-posed
to this type of music?
Similar comments may be
made concerning the editorial
remarks about the homecoming
musical program. The program
involving music, much of which
is mediocre at best, is then prais-ed
as hopefully being "indica-tive
of the broadening of the
Bethel students," and "refresh-ing
to observe."
It is difficult to reconcile thi.
with a serious attempt to relate
all experiences to one's Christian
faith.
IF A program is planned with
specific attention given to exclud-ing
the devotional emphasis, then
could not more careful attention
be given so that the program would
be the highest secular level pos-sible,
as it seems to me that most
quality, non-sacred music is not
without intellectual and spiritual
value?
Finally, in the same editorial,
reference is made to previously
unpublicized administrative pres-sure
applied "for reasons which
can only be termed embarrass-ing
in view of the ideals of a
liberal arts college."
Who, may I ask, is to be embar-rassed
at this point? The college,
in the eyes of the alumni and con-stituency?
the administration? or
the student whose lack of discern-ment
forced the administration to
take exception to their traditional
non-intervention policy and pre-vent
this which apparently was out
of keeping with a Christian liberal
arts campus?
The liberal arts education at
Bethel is defined in the catalogue
as an attempt "to bring a student
to know himself, to understand
the world and society in which he
lives, to exercise critical judg-ment,
to be intellectually alert, to
work effectively with other peo-ple,"
while allowing our Christian
faith to be the guiding principle
throughout the program.
It is greatly disappointing to me
that the absence of devotional em-phasis
in a program, the presence
of secular music of questionable
quality, and the lack of critical
judgment by some supposed stu-dent
leaders are lauded as signs
of progress at Bethel.

Dear Editor:
It is ironic that this week of
mission-emphasis will be climaxed
by Nik Dag. I'm sure that we will
be challenged to again stare at
the millions going to hell.
We will be reminded of the scar-city
of workers and money; then
to climax the whole show we will
have one of the most expensive
nights of the year. "But it's our
only chance and I've been saving
all year. Anyway, we have to be
well-rounded and have our social
affairs."
I wonder what Bethel's box-score
will be for the weekend; how
much blood will be upon our
hands? I wonder what the ratio
will be between the Monday mis-sionary
offering and the Saturday
night offering to self.

Now on display in the seminary
basement are several prints by
artist Malcolm Meyers. Mr. Meyers,
art teacher at the University of
Minnesota, discussed his work with
Bethel's matrix class last Monday
evening.
The artist was very modest in
spite of the fact that his work ap-pears
in most of the leading mu-seums
in this country and several
abroad. He introduced his very in-formal
lecture by admitting that
"I can't say how I feel about art
or aesthetics, because when you're
talking about something you're so
close to, what can you say?"
For each of his prints Mr.
Meyers uses two or three copper
plates. As for subject matter, he
indicated that he is "very fond
of birds, animals and nature, so
I use them in my work." He
often works with medieval
themes. Jazz, another of his in-terests,
appears as subject mat-ter
of his art.
Mr. Meyers seldom pre-plans or
sketches a drawing before he be-gins,
explaining, "the enjoyment is
lost if I do that." He believes that
a very flexible start, or the "con-temporary
way of working," char-acteristic
of the New York school,
"is a good way .. . it has opened

up our mind and made more things
acceptable."
However, he has swung away
from abstract expression in the last
few years because "it is getting
hard to make an original state-ment
in it." A criticism he had to
make about the New York school
was that he felt it often divorced
the intellectual aspect from art.
He also criticized the New
York galleries for being too com-mercial
and then indicated that
this was a fault he often found
in students. "They sell a paint-ing
for $15 or $20 and then lose
their sense of values about art
altogether."
Why be an artist? Mr. Meyers
has several answers: "It's one of

the Dukes, were both victors in
the first week of intramural bas-ketball
play.
Led by Les Swanson and Howie
Rekstad, who scored 31 and 22
respectively, the Seminarians beat
the Counts 90-52. Ken Gowdy add-ed
19 points to the Seminarian's
total. Paul Wicklund and Bill Carl-son
scored 17 and 13 for the
Counts.
In the closest game of the even-ing
the Dukes slipped past the Jes-ters
60-57. The three big men for
the Dukes, John Holmberg, Don
Moore and George Palke, scored
17, 12 and 12. Lyle Anderson with
18 and Don McKelvy with 16 paced
the Jesters.
Finding the formula for basket-ball
a little different from the one
they used to win the football
championship, the Knights were
beaten 79-33 by the Squires. Dan
Travaille scored 26 for the win-ners,
assisted by Curt Hallstrom
with 15 and Don Land with 14.
Dick Thompson with 11 and Monte
Hansen with 10 topped the
Knights.
Gene Buhler, Denny Port and
Paul Wedeking scored 26, 12 and
10 respectively to lead the Pea-sants
past the Barons 64-32. Tim
Sward scored 10 and was the only
Baron in double figures.
Thursday night the Pages de-feated
the Faculty by forfeit.
This week games are being play-ed

Sidelines
by Bob Beckstrom
"This year has shown me the importance of good coaching on a
football team," commented senior Bob Smith. In reflecting on the
team's winning season he pointed out that an outstanding coaching
staff has made the difference in a lot of the games during this campaign.
Indicative of the fine job done by Bethel's coaching staff have been
head coach Owen Halleen's scouting reports on Northland and Wahpeton.
Said co-capain Jim Nelson, "Coach's scouting report on Northland was
as responsible for the win as anything else.
We knew what they would do, and we just
waited for them." Smith also added that
the half-time changes Halleen made in the
team's strategy helped them in several
games.
Halleen has been as pleased with
his team as they have been with him.
He had to admit that before football
camp, faced with a tough schedule and
having lost thirty men from last year's
squad, he never expected a season like
this.
"But during football camp we started
to see the intensity and willingness that
have marked this squad all year long. There
were few men, but they were willing. We
also had veterans at most positions.
"New students helped in areas where
we were weak. That this team should win
more games than other teams in the past
is only just--they have made more of an
Halleen effort." Thus Halleen was able to predict
at the beginning of the season that this would be "one of Bethel's finest
football teams."
After seeing the team the first week, the coaching staff had
good reason for optimism. "At the end of camp we saw what we
had and felt it would be tough on us if we had to lose with these
kids."
Halleen has many sources to which he may attribue the winning
season, not the least of which was the consistent, steady contribution
of the players who did not play as much as others, but still took the
knocks and put out an extra effort.
He named Art Dykstra, Jim Steinhaus, Chuck Taylor, Ron Duenow,
Jim Friberg, Dick Lawrence and Dick Fredrickson as men to look for
next year. "They contributed greatly to the winning effort this year.
Without them we wouldn't have won."
Appreciating the good job done by the cheerleaders and racket
squad, Halleen' also expressed thanks for all the fans who attended the
games. "We are glad for the interest the fans have shown and we are
glad we have given them enjoyment."
Assistant coaches Phil Carlson, Paul Evan and Ray Shepherd also
drew praise from Halleen, as well as the outstanding job done by co-captains
Jerry Oas and Jim Nelson. Halleen is already looking forward
to next year. "We will be taking a nine-month break now, but we will
be back next year to preserve our winning streak. Dave Cox and Bob
Smith will be tough to replace."
