Scheduled to convene on Bethel's

St. Paul Area Inter-Group Youth
conference.
Sponsored by the National Con-ference

Approximately 200 Twin City

Beginning at 12:30 p.m., the con-ference
will be entitled "Human

discussions will be held concern-ing
the topics of "Fair Housing

Dr. Moberg continued: "We feel

We may "relate social sciences

Faculty Decision Initiates
Revised Music Program
,In response to a series of recommendations brought by
the Educational Policies committee, the faculty voted last
Thursday to effect a number of changes in curriculum and in
academic policy. Numerous course additions were made, with
"Patterns of Christian Thought" being assigned elective status.
Other decisions involved the establishment of the graduation
requirements of "Fundamentals of Speech," beginning with the
class of 1966, and of a 1.25 honor point ratio in the student's
major field of concentration for those graduating in 1965
and after.
These alterations were warranted and needed; however,
faculty acceptance of an "extensive revision" of the program
offered by the music department was most disturbing. Under
the new schedule, the music education student must complete
a total of 42 credits in the music program, in addition to
another 18 credits in education, besides the 66 general credits
required for the arts degree. These revisions make this par-ticular
program the most demanding and narrowly limited of-fered
by the college, and one is thus honestly led to question
if it does not stand as a betrayal of the liberal arts tradition.
Within this proposed curriculum, the entering student
is met with a rigid, pre-directed program which allows little
opportunity for delving into different subject matter, and
the student who discovers an interest in this field after his
freshman year is almost immediately committed to a five-year
program.
The natural science concentration offers the only other
comparable situation, but even it does not limit itself to one
discipline, but is divided between three areas—biological sci-ence,
physical science and mathematics; allows such courses
as "Philosophy of Science"; and includes general arts require-ments
in its required credit total.
Even the elementary education program, which requires
34 professional education credits, is not limited to one field
but incorporates presentations from different departments and
in addition demands a total of 18 credits in another academic
area. Once again, certain of these credit areas are those ful-filled
in the general graduation requirements.
Basic to this problem is the fact that the school has
committed itself to offering only one degree, the bachelor
of arts. It awards neither a bachelor of science nor a bachelor
of music degree, and it is a liberal arts college and not a
music conservatory.
-- Bethel has long mouthed the traditional -philosophy that
she does not imitate other schools, and if she finds that music
students are in reality inadequately prepared for placement
through the existing situation, then she should be prepared to
find a solution that does not violate her pre-established criteria
for a liberal arts education.
Perhaps separate programs for the preparation of teach-ers
and for the preparation of graduate students would afford
one answer, but nevertheless, it would appear a difficult task
indeed to convince one's conscience that a student so closely
confined to one area of study should be allowed to claim a
bachelor of arts degree.

William Golding, "Lord of the Flies." New
York: Capricorn books, G. P. Putnam's Sons,
1959. 192 pp. $1.25.
Lord of the Flies is a story of
some British school boys who find
themselves on an island, after an
atomic catastrophe, with no adult.
"Lord of the flies" is a translation
of "Beelzebub." The book is much
more than a Robinson Crusoe epi-sode.
Though the symbolism — of
Freudian, political and even theo-logical
significance — the author,
William Golding, traces the nature
and defects of society to the evil
in man's nature.
GOLDING is not, perhaps, a liter-ary
genius—the dialogue and the
characters sometimes lack realism
—but the symbolism in the story
is provocative and the emotional
impact of the book is unique.
At the beginning of the story,
the children are called together
on the island by two of the boys
who have found a conch. A chief
is elected. The boys decide to keep
a fire going on a mountain top as
a signal to any ships that might
come into sight.
The first ominous note in the
story comes with the fear of one
of the "littleuns," the youngest
boys, of a snake-like "beastie."
Through masterfully drawn circum-stances,
fear of the Beast takes
hold of the entire group of boys.
DISSENSION IN the group arises
arises when a ship appears on the
horizon and then disappears be-cause
the fire watchers have ne-glected
the fire to go pig-hunting.
A rebel group is led off to estab-lish
a kind of totalitarian commun-ity.
Fear of the Beast persists, al-though
Simon, the mystic, suggests,
"Maybe there is a beast . . . maybe
it's only us." And the fat, bespec-tacled
Piggy, who symbolizes rea-son,
asserts, "course there aren't
(beasts) . . . cas' things wouldn't
make sense."
The rebel band becomes a group
of war-painted savages, dictated to
by their red-haired leader, Jack.
Simon appears in the midst of an
orgiastic ritual, after a pork feast,
to reveal that the supposed Beast
is only the corpse of a parachutist.
He is massacured, unrecognized in
the insane, blood-demanding frenzy
of "tearing of teeth and claws."

American political parties are
strangely paradoxial and often be-guile
students of current events.
The radical changes that party
policy can take may be observed
by comparing the pre-Cuban with
the current political battles.
Prior to the Cuban incident,
many Republicans shouted long
and loud for American military
strength and decisive action, re-gardless
of the criticism this policy
might incur from our allies. And

Student senate met last Tuesday
evening before the Bethel-River
Falls basketball game. An import-ant
piece of legislation was passed,
and senate president Jim Spickel-mier
made several announcements.
Legislation passed was the much-needed
Election Code of Proce-dure,

encountered in class and
senate elections. The code estab-the
sadist Roger, of the savage
band.
Ralph, the only remnant of the
earlier society, is being pursued to
be murdered when a British boat
appears to rescue the boys. At the
end of the book, twelve-year-old
Ralph weeps for the end of inno-cence
and the darkness of man's
heart.
But in a comment of the author
in a publicity questionnaire the
adult rescuer "appears, dignified
and capable, but in reality enmesh-ed
in the same evil as the sym-bolic
life of the children of the
island.
HAVING INTERRUPTED a man-hunt,
the officer prepares to take
the children off the island in a
cruiser which will presently be
hunting its enemy in the same im-placable
way. And who will rescue
the adult and his cruiser?"
The situation of the story is
rather unrealistic. One might be
tempted to be skeptical as to whe-ther
children of this age would be
capable of much of these school
boy's experience. But Golding has
made a commentary about human
nature, and drawn conclusions a-bout
human society that can not
be easily dismissed.
liehes the petition system of nomi
nation for all class and senate elec-tions.
PETITIONS WILL be issued to
all qualified people who file dec-larations
of candidacy. The code
allows a member of the student
body to sign only one petition per
office.
For example, a member cannot
sign the petition of more than one
of his class's presidential candi-dates.
The petition must be return-ed
to the senate office within one
school day of its issuance.
The code establishes criteria by
which contested ballots may be
judged. Polling places are to be
set up in convenient locations, well
staffed with unbiased workers.
Election winners will be announc-ed
by the senate-appointed election
board. Many of the code provisions
are intended to acquaint students
with similar state and federal pro-visions.
PRESIDENT SPICKELMIER an-nounced
a new pattern for twice-monthly
senate meetings. The first
meeting of the month will be desig-nated
a business session, with
senators encouraged to limit un-necessary
discussion. Campus prob-lems,
with the student body spec-ially
invited, would be the topic
of the second meeting. It is hoped
that such a schedule will allow
more students to both observe and
take part in campus government.
New hours were announced for
Hagstrom and Bodien lounges.
"You" can be with "her" in the
lounge from 6 to 7 on Monday,
Tuesday and Thursday evenings;
until 10 p.m. on Wednesday; until
11 p.m. on Sunday; and until 11:45
on Friday and Saturday nights.
Bodien and Hagstrom dormitory
councils approved the new hours
on a trial basis. If the new privi-leges
are not abused, the hours
will become policy.
But this is a necessary part of
political life in a country where
parties lack discipline and cen-tralization
and this condition has
caused our country to drag its
feet where often it could have
made great progress.
If as in Great Britain our par-ties
produced platforms that were
unambiguous and if they enforced
discipline upon their individual
candidates, the voter would not
feel pressured into making impos-sible
judgments about the integ-rity
of the office seeker.
RATHER HE could know that
his vote for the Democratic candi-date,
for example, would be a vote
for a liberalization of the social
security law, and if a majority of
Democrats were elected, this policy
would be made law, barring sud-den
pressure to the contrary by
the people. If a majority of candi-dates
were defeated, some degree
of change in that party's policy
would be almost mandatory.
Thus private citizens would
themselves be encouraged to
vote more directly on policy, and
changes in party policy from
week to week would be mini-mized.
Americans in this situation could
not rely on the minority party to
oppose with unanimity and skill
all major policies of the party in
power. The press would be more
effectively able to cope with the
two conflicting powers than with
the existing hodge-podge of almost
535 individual philosophies.
The appraisal of potential inno-vations
is to some extent hampered
because the present system works
satisfactorily. However, our coun-try
has been hindered seriously in
the past because of indecisiveness
and serious consideration of change
in the party was never more
timely.

encouraged by her pastor, a mis-sionary
of the Evangelical Free

to Bethel for several years and
benefit from a Christian college
Her first reaction to "What is

and the answer, "the food. It is so

the weather. "The coldest it gets

that the spirituality must come

and finance, Judy enrolled
in Southern Connecticut state. But
after a couple of weeks of com-muting
she decided she would ra-ther

She found she missed the Christian
school.
She expressed the feeling one
has in returning to a school after

have changed. The only way you
can enjoy yourself is to adjust to

Ensemble Displays Artistry,
Presents Delightful Concert
by Paul Larson
Last Friday, one-tenth of the Bethel student body and a few scat-tered
faculty members listened to an unusual and stimulating concert
by a local musical group calling itself "The Baroque Ensemble." The
program consisted of a delightful mixture of baroque and modern
music played by violin, flute, oboe, cello and harpsichord.
The musicians displayed senstivity and, on the whole, precision.
This was particularly apparent in Vivaldi's polyphonic "Trio Sonata in
C Minor" for flute, oboe and basso continuo. Though playing contrasting
and nearly independent parts, the performers seemed to be so immersed
in the music that they never lost sight of the whole.
All of them, in particular the harpsichord and violin players,
tended to interpret rhythm and dynamics rather freely. Though de-viating
from "true baroque style," these interpretive changes made
the music more understandable and enjoyable for most of us.
From the very first number, a Stradella "Sinfonia," the violinist
and cellist displayed a sensitivity to each other that overcame occasional
technical problems. The harpsichord, though unfamiliar to many of us
and obviously limited in tonal variation, blended excellently.
The oboist must be credited with the finest individual performance.
He handled passages ranging from sustained melody in the Honegger
choral to devilishly tricky arpeggios in the Telemann quartet with mas-terful
precision and control, and above all, with a thin tone beautifully
suited to the ensemble as a whole.
Modern compositions by Martinu and Honegger provided an ex-citing
contrast to the typical baroque selections. Martinu's "Promen-ades"
was furthest removed from baroque style and spirit. Angular
melodies and clashing harmony characterized all of the movements—
from a light, carefree allegro through a romantic adagio and face-tious
scherzando to a garishly furious finale.
Honegger's "Three Counterpoints" fit into the program well, despite
its polytonality. Instrumentation in the second movement, a "Choral
for Three Voices," reminded one of Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desir-ing,"
with a long melody line in the violin, a rhythmic part in the
cello and a slow, recurring theme in the oboe.
The high point of the program was Telemann's "Quartet in G
Major," in which all five instruments were involved. The first move-ment,
a largo-allegro-largo, presented a beautiful combination of parallel
with contrapuntal harmony. Flute and violin over-romanticized their
parts, though this added to the intensity of the performance.
A spirited and dense vivace-moderato-vivace was the most pene-trating
selection of the evening. Intricate and beautiful melodies
passed from flute to violin to oboe and back again were excellently
matched and blended together by the individual performers.
The cultural council is to be commended for bringing groups like
this to the campus. It is unfortunate that so few students and faculty
are willing to expose themselves to music outside their own narrow
range of appreciation.

Bethel Shocks Moorhead State
In 66 - 52 Home Cage Victory
Bethel scored a resounding 66-
52 victory over Moorhead State
college Friday night in the field-house.
Jerry Moulton and Don
Moore, each with 16 points, led a
well balanced Royal scoring attack
to give them a 42-33 halftime lead.
Don Wermager and Jim Jahr,
with 16 and 14 points respectively,
led the Moorhead State acctack
but were unable to overcome
Bethel's rebounding and scoring
strength. The game was particu-larly
significant since Moorhead
had ended nationally ranked Augs-burg's
19-game winning streak last
Tuesday.
Moorhead's Wermager, with
two quick baskets early in the
second half, closed the gap to
42-36 with ten minutes remain-ing
in the game. But two jump
shots by Jerry Moulton gave
Bethel a 46-36 lead which they
never relinquished.
Lee Bajuniemi's and Dave Peter-man's
fine dribbling and ball con-trol
helped break up a Moorhead
press with eight minutes to go and
gave the Royals a 66-50 lead with
1:26 left in the game.
Bethel's strong shooting average
(42% to Moorhead's 26 ) and re-bounding
strength (49 to 45) prov-ed
to be the deciding factors in
their 14 point victory.
Bethel's starting five, Don
Moore, George Palke, Lee Baj-uniemi,
Dave Peterman and
Jerry Moulton, played until coach
Healy made substitutions with
1.26 left in the game. Dave Peter-man
played well on defense,
holding Moorhead's Wermager,
who had scored 31 against Augs-burg,
to 16 points.
Thursday at 4 p.m. the Royals
entertain Ncrthwe3tern college of
Minneapolis in the annual Foun-ders
week game. The Eagles, led
by seniors Walt Green and Jim
Carlson, will be trying to avenge
Bethel's previous 81-74 victory. On
Saturday night the Royals will tra-vel
to Northland for their season
finale.
Frosh Smash
Close Season
game, the Squires dominated the
point standings with 94, followed
by the Seminary with 84.
In the last night of basketball
action the Seminary scored a
close victory over the Peasants
to insure their tie for first place.
Howie Rekstad and Lynn David-son,
with 26 and 23 points, led
the Seminary to the 73-69 win.
The Peasants were paced by
Gene Buhler with 27 and Dick
Lawrence with 20.
Another close contest found the
Counts edging the Dukes, 48-46.
Paul Wicklund contributed 14 for
the Counts while Ben Brown led
the Dukes with 13.
Dick Thompson and Stan Miller,
with 25 and 18 points, sparked the
Knights to their first basketball
victory, raising them to a tie for
second-to-last place. The 68-35 win
over the Barons dropped the Bar-ons
down to a tie for last place.
High-scoring Dale Pearson,
with 46 points, provided more
than ample margin for his Jes-ters
to beat the Pages 120.71.
Lyle Anderson tallied 22 for the
winning team, while Warren Mc-
Mullen led the Pages with 13.
Q. T. Smith is still leading the
current paddleball tournament,
with Baron Bob Smith and Count
Paul Wicklund following. Handball
and wrestling tourneys are slated
for next month, and intramural
volleyball will begin next week.
Bethel's wrestling season came
to an end last Tuesday with a 28-
10 victory over near-by Hamline
university.
The Royals were spotted five
points when the Hamline team
failed to 1-1■;cr a man in the 123
lb. class. Bethel then wasted no
time in building their lead to 15-0
on pins by Dennis Clothier and
Roger Gronau.
Clothier, wrestling above his
normal weight class, had no
trouble winning as he pinned
his man in the closing seconds
of the last period.
Gronau, losing on points for a
short time, came on strong to pin
his foe in the second period. Paul
Sloan, team captain, added three
points to the cause by beating his
opponent 6-3.
After Bethel's Keith Anderson
was pinned for Hamline's first five
points, Paul Anderson and Dave
Hagfeldt combined back-to-back
pins to put the meet away for
Bethel.
Anderson's pin, his fourth
straight, came as a surprise to
no one as he won after two min-utes
had elapsed in the second
period.
Hagfeldt boosted the score to
28-10 as he led all the way on
points and finally succeeded in
pinning his opposition in the third
period.
Duane Gibson, wrestling for the
first time this year, lost on a pin
to Hamline's heavyweight man to
give the Pipers their last five
points of the meet.
The final score was Bethel 28,
Hamline 10. Bethel's season record
stands at 2-7, both victories corn :
ing at Hamline's expense.
Sidelines
by Bob Beckstrom
The basketball victory over Moorhead, the upcoming Northwestern
game and the wrestlers' recent 28-10 win over Hamline have dominated
the Bethel sports scene this week, but behind the scene a story of
greater and more far-reaching significance is developing.
Jerry Healy, head of the athletic department, has announced the
possible formation of a new athletic league. Last Friday morning repre-sentatives
from Jamestown College, Jamestown, N. Dak.; University of
Minnesota, Morris; Northland College, Ashland, Wis.; Northwestern Col-lege,
Minneapolis; and Bethel met at the University of Minnesota St.
Paul campus to study further possibilities of forming this conference.
"In an earlier meeting these colleges issued a statement favoring
the development of an intercollegiate athletic group based on partici-pation
solely because of interest in, and enjoyment of, sports,'" said
Healy. "A re-evaluation of the place of intercollegiate sports in a liberal
arts education was a primary topic of discussion. The importance of
a no-subsidy philosophy of athletics was stressed and agreed upon by
the participating schools."
Unanimous agreement on the "concept of a wide range of inter-collegiate
sports offerings and maximum student participation" was
reached by the committee, which was composed of academic deans,
faculty athletic chairmen, athletic directors and coaches from the rep-resentative
schools. They believe that "intercollegiate sports should be
an integral part of the whole education process."
Included in the wide range of intercollegiate sports offerings would
ultimately be competition in football, basketball, wrestling, golf, track
and tennis. The athletic directors were instructed to draw up in the
near future "a statement of principles which will serve as a guide in
the formation of such a group."
Bethel has already scheduled football and basketball games for
next year with all the schools interested in the conference. Both Healy
and faculty representatives are optimistic about the league. "We are
unequivocally in favor of the conference," said Healy. "There is enough
agreement as to the basic philosophy involved." These plans are still
tentative, however, and nothing will be definite until April, the deadline
for commitments from the schools.
