Thursday, November 3, 1966 Royal Players Schedule 'Conquest' For Four Churches During Weekend write-in votes. Wilton E. "Bill" Ledkins, the only candidate for senator - at - large, received 201 votes, a comfortable margin of 183 over previously proven loser Leonard Sammons. Tim Gibson and Della Gibbs each received two votes while 12 persons each received one. Other write-in votes recorded included six for Adele Marker, freshman treasurer, and nine for Richard Swanson, freshman senator. Those winning the freshmen seats on the Senate included Carl Swanson, 126; Priscilla Anderson, 122; Kenneth Lewis, 103; Charlene Gemar, 97; and Donald Cervin with 93. Tim Weko was the closest run-ner- up with 87. The top five freshmen in terms of votes received were Ron Skon with 129; Dick Steven, 127; Carl Swanson, 126; Pat Keim and Pris-cilla Anderson with 122. With a heavy travel schedule through three states, the Bethel Royal Players take off Friday noon on the first major jaunt of their young touring season. Six actors and director Dale Rott will span 1200 miles before Sunday evening as they appear on two special church programs and assist in three Sunday worship services. The drama personnel will pre-sent the familiar "Conquest in Bur-ma" four times over the weekend to churches who have requested that it be presented in their lo-calities. In addition, they will give the dialogue sermon "Sacrifice— No!" at one point on the trip. First stop is Waverly, Iowa, where "Conquest in Burma" will highlight a special missionary rally sponsored Friday evening by several churches. The next evening brings the troupe to Ev-anston, Illinois, where they will feature the same play at a spe-cial fall rally in the Calvary Baptist Church. Sunday they move north to West Allis, Wisconsin, and the Beloit Road Baptist Church there. During the Sunday School hour they will again perform "Conquest in Bur-ma." following with the Dialogue Sermon as the main portion of the morning worship hour. Another long stretch of travel will carry the group to central Wisconsin where they have scheduled an ev-ening performance of "Conquest in Burma" Sunday. "Conquest in Burma" details the major events in the life of Adoni-ram and Ann Judson, first mission-aries to Burma. Dale Cope and Mary Ruetten play these leads, with Jill Graham as Narrator; Character and supporting roles are handled by Dave Stagg (playing three parts), Darryl Berg (with two roles), Bob Bryant, Jeff Loomis, and Director Rott. The play is by Albert Johnson of the University of Redlands in California. Dale Cope also plays the cen-tral figure, Man, in the dialogue sermon, as he is beset by contra. dictory viewpoints offered from the Tempter, played by Dave Stagg, and Conscience, enacted by Darryl Berg. Also as part of the hour in which the sermon is presented, Mr. Rott will nar-rate "Nails" and Jill Graham will sing two solos. The weekend tour is among an ever-growing list of in-church pre-sentations undertaken by the Roy-al Players. Sunday evening, Octo-, ber 30, they offered "The Cup of Freshman and transfer students have received the "deal of a stu-dent life time" this past week at the Bethel Bookstore. It has been the "Campus-Pac"—a $2.50 value of varied toiletries for 25 cents. From the small fee charged, the Bethel Bookstore in conjunction with the Student Personnel Com-mittee is giving a $50 grant-in-aid applicable to second semester to some worthy freshman. Mr. Bob Bergerud announced to-day that Bethel Bookstore recently made arrangements for another re-markable opportunity. All campus coeds will receive free a "Student Gift-Pac." It contains about $1.00 worth of Prell, Hidden Magic, Tam-pax and Safeguard soap. The "Gift-Pats" are available at the cash register of the Bethel Bookstore. A receipt card must be filled in at the time of receiving the "Gift-Pac." It asks for name, class, address of school, and home address. The manufacturers pro-mise that these cards will not be used for further advertising. The "Gift-Pats" are available at the Bookstore now. The offer is limited to one to a girl, and each Trembling," the Homecoming Play this year, at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Minneapolis. The same play will be given at Warrendale Presbyterian Church, 1040 Como Avenue, on November 13 at 7 p.m. Presentations of both these dra-mas are part of the Royal Players' continual attempt to spread the message of church drama's rele-vance in an age, when, as Mr. Rott phrases it, "we need dynamic forms to enhance our message in `waking up' the world." girl must sign for her own. Be-ginning on Wednesday, November 9, they will be available to female faculty and staff, and then, if any remain at the end of the day, to faculty and staff wives. Arrangements are being made by Mr. Bergerud to have a male "Gift- Pac" available—likely in February or March. Olivet Nazarene College of Kan-kakee, Illinois was host last week to the American Association of Evangelical Students. The confer-ence held on Thursday and Fri-day, October 27 and 28, was at-tended by three delegates from Bethel College. Chief consideration for the con-ference was the theme "Our Chris-tian Heritage." Dr. Gordon Clark, and Dr. Martin Marty were two prominent guests at the regional conference who addressed them-selves to the relationship of his-tory and the Christian. Dr. Clark in a one hour ad-dress spoke to the delegates on "The Marxist Theory of History," of the delegates represented Bible colleges, with a sizable represen-tation from Christian liberal arts schools. Representatives from Bethel were Jim Keim, Linda C. Olson, and Jonathan P. Larson. The delegation left the campus Wed-nesday and returned Saturday. Sidelights to the conference were the performance of Frostiana by the Olivet Orpheus, Viking, and Trebel choirs, and an evening din-ner concluding the meetings. Business confronting the con-ference included a discussion of the purposes of the organization, the ideological stance of the or-ganization, and the increased de-sire for exchange of ideas between representative schools. The Conference Board of Publi-cations voted this summer to offer a fifty dollar award to that stu-dent of Bethel College or Seminary preparing the outstanding piece of creative writing during the year. The entries must be submitted to the English department of the College by March 1, 1967. They will be judged by the editorial staff of Harvest Publications and the winning entry will be published in the appropriate Harvest Publica-tions periodical. The award will be made at the Bethel Honors Convocation May 23, 1967. This Martin Erikson Journalism Award was made possible by a perpetual fund established by his widow and the Board of Publica-tions in memory of Martin Erikson, editor of the STANDARD from 1945 to 1962.

A concert review is found on page four of this week's CLARION. and Dr. Marty spoke on Friday on two occasions, "Carrying the Burden of Our History," and later "Travelling Light: The Christian Use of History." The conference was punctuated by numerous discussion sessions designed to analyze current cam-pus problems and provide a forum for the free flow of student ideas and reactions. Topics of discussion included, "The Place of Student Opposition on Christian Campuses," "The Effect of Campus Publication in Stimulating Creative Leader, ship," "Christian Responsibility in Regard to Political Affairs." Representatives from sixteen col-leges were present.

Page 2 the CLARION Thursday, November 3, 1966 Letters to the Editor: Swelling Gulf of Purpose Letters View Articles, Gifts, Prayer Presently Faces AAES by Jonathan P. Larson The AAES, American Association of Evangelical Students is an organization trapped in a limbo of purposes and goals. Though it has existed for ten years, it is evident that the or-ganization lacks a feeling of direction. The Preamble of the AAES constitution declares that it is dedicated first to foster a bond of Christian fellowship be-tween member student bodies. This is indeed a worthy intent. Yet the association has failed to realize this for one reason. The AAES is not influential enough to hold a strong place in the college publications, and as a result in the minds of the individual student body members. If an organization is to be strong, the basis from which it draws its support must be in-formed and concerned about its existence. To build and organi-zation apart from the personal lives of its members is to build upon a weak foundation. 2) AAES exists to propose study of and suggest solutions to mutual problems. The Association has partly fulfilled this declared intent through the various discussion sessions. In-creased effectiveness of the discussion sessions could be effected through a more intense focus by the guest speakers on current problems which nag and in some instances have riddled our Christian campuses. • 3) AAES is dedicated to promoting the highest standard of scholarship among member schools. This will be a very diffi-cult purpose to pursue. Judging from the present strength of the organization it would be inconceivable that the AAES could make any progress in this direction within the next five years. Concrete plans to boost academic standards have not been laid. In fact, this seemed to be a neglected plank in the inter-action of the delegates. 4) AAES is to aid member schools in fulfilling the goals and purposes of the individual institutions. Here again the AAES addresses itself to the individual constituent schools. Yet to date the AAES has failed to penetrate the floating nebulous organization held together by erratic newsletters which find their way into student council files. 5) AAES exists to promote and exercise an active in-terest in the affairs of national, state, and local govern-ments and social institutions. The AAES sees itself as an organization that will confront students on evangelical cam-puses with the importance of politics and society as it bears on the existence of the church. This will require a large or-ganized staff to prepare material on a relevant way, and dis-seminate this material throughout the schools. Campus co-ordinators from the AAES will have to be insightful people capable of discerning local political problems and publi-cizing them in an intelligent, objective manner. This is a big order, far beyond the present capacity of the AAES to fulfill. 6) AAES proports to promote creative student leadership as an integral part of the educational .'process for the purpose of effective student government. Because AAES con-ferences are attended by student leaders, the dialog which occurs in such a situation is probably the sanest purpose the AAES has set forth. For the delegate, a broader under-standing of campus problems is inevitable, and a coordinated search for an answer to these problems will indeed be a creative effort resulting in more competent and mature leaders. AAES is straddling a widening gulf. The organization must either enisage a broader staff, with an increased budget, and more intimate contact with its constituents, or else redefine itself in terms of the material it has at hand. A failure to do so will result in the eventual collapse of the association. If the AAES chooses to do the former, programs for progress will be necessary. Strong leaders that can consolidate and expand will be at the top of a need list. The life of this organization will be determined by its ability and decision to choose, and then to act. Twin City Colleges Open For Interlibrary Exchange by Leonard Sammons On Tuesday night, November 1, the Bethel Student Senate layed aside any claim it had of being an, effective representative body. The meeting had an encouraging start as Mr. Keim reminded visitors of their right to address the Senate when the large band of visitors began to ask questions regarding last week's renewal of NSA membership. After only token response from Senators, the Senate led by Bob Olson and Ron Stone limited in-struction to two more minutes. This Miss Kathy Harvie prompt-ly filled by reading from the NSA manual. The action to limit discussion was opposed by Ken Lewis, John Sailhamer and three other sen-ators. Three weeks ago this observer noted that lack of communication between students and Senators was the fault of both. However, it is now necessary for me to recant that opinion. The students do not deserve any blame; it must go to the Senators. When the Senate turns down the queries of a dozen students with no more than pat answers, they take upon themselves the complete blame. The Senate spent much of the remainder of the evening discus-sing how they could explain the NSA issue to the senate body. Led by Miss Harvie, they called for an "objective" article to be put in the CLARION next week. This observer thinks this idea poor for two reasons: 1) Mr. Keim Bethel College students may use other Twin Cities libraries subject to certain regulations. Bethel par-ticipates in an interlibrary loan agreement with Augsburg, Ham-line, Macalester, St. Catherine, and St. Thomas colleges that permits borrowing books when requested by a librarian from the student's home institution. Bethel students wishing to use a book that is not in Bethel's col-lection should ask a librarian if the book may be borrowed from one of the other libraries. The librarian will call these libraries and arrange for the loan. The stu-. dent can then pick up the book at the other library by presenting The fourth annual Kansas City Poetry Contests offering $1,600 in prizes and the publication of a book-length manuscript have been announced by Thorpe Menn, liter-ary editor of the Kansas City Star, who is to write the article, is ob viously committed to one side of the issue. Therefore, any attempt to call the article "objective" would be erroneous. 2) The Senate refused to explain its views in the meeting to those who obviously were interested. It would be the height of hypoc-risy to put it in the CLARION for the benefit of those who are probably not as interested. The attempt of Bill Ledkins to establish a forum or debate to inform students on what NSA is, what it does, and why we joined was defeated, 10-6. One cannot help but wonder if this was not from fear on the part of Senators that the students would reveal themselves as opposed to t h e deeds of the Senate. the yellow slip he receives from the librarian. Policies vary at other libraries. The Bethel Seminary library will loan -up to five books on the col-lege student's identification card. St. Paul Bible College and Bethel College and Seminary libraries have an informal arrangement which allows students to borrow books freely from each others' lib-raries. The St. Paul Public Library issues student cards to students from St. Paul colleges. Most other libraries require a deposit or charge a fee to bor-rowers who are not a part of the community they serve. However, most libraries permit use of their materials on the library premises. one of four sponsors of the con-tests. Six $100 awards will be offered to college students for single poems in the Hallmark Honor Prize competition, sponsored by Hallmark Cards, Inc., the Kansas City greeting card publisher. The Dr. Edward A. Devins Award will offer a $500 advance on royalties for a book-length manuscript to be published and distributed by the University of Missouri Press. Both the Hall-mark and the Devins awards are offered on a national basis. Two additional competitions are open to residents of the Mid-Am-erica region. Four $100 prizes are offered for single poems by the Kansas City Star, and high school students in the area may compete for four $25 prizes awarded by H. Jay Sharp, a Kansas City business-man. Closing date for submission of entries is February 1, 1967. The winners will be announced on Ap-ril 27, 1967, at the last event of the 1966-67 American Poets' Ser-ies at the Jewish Community Cen-ter in Kansas City. Complete rules may be obtained by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope to: the cross said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." For additional background to this read I Peter 2:13-21. It is fine for the Clarion to have controversial articles in it, but being we are a Christ centered school, let's have the Christian view point, too. Some secular papers have more scripture than I have seen so far in the Clarion. Speaking out, Douglas Olson To the Editor: During the intermission at the Dick Anthony concert, many of us in attendance were deeply impress-ed by Dr. Lundquist's announce-ment that two parties are each contributing $100,1000 to Bethel. Should this not cause us as Bethel students to pause and eval-uate our relationship to God, to Bethel, and to our world? With people so dedicated to our school, we must do our best to make our Bethel experience a wise invest-ment for them. We may be more than willing to gain from classes, from chapel. and from inter-personal relations, but in addition we must be prompt-ed to give, "for it is in giving that we receive." Are you worth an investment? Bev Swenson To the Editor: My friend and I are writing in regard to the prayer that was of-fered in chapel on Wednesday, the 26th of October. In this prayer we heard the request "Lord, help our boys in Viet Nam KILL, if need be." Because of man's sinfulness, we understand that it becomes neces-sary for one to take up arms against his fellow man. But to ask God's sanction on killing is hypo-critical. Instead of asking God's blessing on our killing, we ought to fall on our knees before God asking for His forgiveness and seek God's guidance in attaining peace among men.

Minn. Subscrip-tion rate $3 per year. Editor-in-chief John Halvorsen Assistant Editor Jonathan P. Larson News Editor Jeff Loomis Feature Editor Nancy Johnson Sports Editor Lynn Bergfalk Photography George Saunders Business Manager John Tegenfeldt Advisor Wallace Nelson Opinions expressed In the CLARION do not necessarily reflect the position of the college or seminary. To the Editor: On reading the last two issues of the Clarion, I have been read-ing the very controversial articles on the inside pages. Some are from the right wing, some from the left, some pacifist, and some ridi-cule of the present administration, but I don't find article #1 on ex4 pressing what the Bible has to say and a Christian's view point. The Biblical view point should be ex-; pressed in the Clarion. Could it be true that on Bethel's campus there is no one student who knows enough about different scriptural doctrines to present that viewpoint? I find that very hard to believe! Why couldn't the campus pastor be invited to express his views in a column with each issue or why not invite each faculty member to express his or her views one in each issue in a column devoted to faculty members and occasionally the campus pastor. Most of all the students should be participating. In answer to some of these con-troversial items mentioned in the Senate Observer Students Confront Senate With NSA first paragraph, I would like to express what the Bible has to say concerning these things. If you will take out your Bible and turn to the 13th chapter of Romans and read it through, I think you will find some definite answers to what God's Word has to say concerning these things. What does the passage say to your heart? Look at the 7th verse and note that it doesn't say, if you agree with the political party or the way the wars are being run. In the 8th verse it says "Owe no one anything . . ." Do you suppose that might include our government and its leaders, who according to verse 1 are ". . . instituted by God" and in verse 2 "Therefore he who re-sists the authorities resists what God has appointed and those who resist will incur judgment." Christ was obedient unto death to earthly governments which He gave authority to in the first place to glorify His Father. He also knew that these men could be brought into a terrible judgment for the wrong they had committed, but on College Poetry Contest Encourages Competition,Manuscript Publication Thursday, November 3, 1966 the CLARION Page 3 Canadians Welcome Draft Dodgers by Roger Rapoport The Collegiate Press Service (Last of a two-part series) TORONTO — "I've always thought a man had an obligation to go fight where his country tells him to," says Corporal Ron McIntosh, a career soldier with the Canadian Army. "But it seems to me that the United States hasn't given its boys much of an explanation on why they should go to Viet Nam. So if they want to come up here to escape the draft it's fine with me." Most of official Canada views things the same way. Police, civic, and university administrators as well as the press solidly endorse the right of U.S. citizens to avert conscription. U.S. diplomatic and military officials are not visibly dismayed by the situation either. "There's no reason to get your blood pressure up when you have a few hundred draft dodgers amidst 30 million draft registrants," National Se-lective Service Director Lt. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey said. "You can't have a sawmill without a little sawdust and these draft-dodgers are just sawdust. Besides I don't think they are much of an asset to the United States. I've told my Canadian friends that they are welcome to them." Canada seems happy to oblige. "We don't even think about it," says a spokesman for the city of Toronto in the town's posh new city hall. "What's the saying? What you don't know doesn't hurt you," he says whimsically. A spokesman for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police explains that the draft status of U.S. im-migrants is not a matter of Canadian concern. And the Toronto Globe and Mail wrote in a recent editorial, "The granting of political asylum is an accepted principle in all civilized countries. Canada cannot decently breach this principle." At the University of Toronto admissions director E.M. Davidson says the draft status of American applicants is not a factor in admission to the school. "We admit exclusively on academic and behavioral grounds." Davidson has noticed no upsurge of applicants from American men to the school. In fact, the num-ber of U.S. male applicants has fallen off in recent months. "But that's probably because the draft is draining off a lot of our prospective American students," he explains. Several Canadian organizations actively assist ex-patriates. The Student Union for Peace Action with headquarters at 659 Spadina St. has become the Wel-come Wagon for American draft dodgers. It helps new arrivals to settle. While SUPA leader Tony Hyde is quick to explain that his organization "makes no move to get people to come up here," it has published an informative 15-cent pamphlet called "Coming to Canada?" for "Americans concerned about the possibility of being drafted." The informative document includes all perti-nent information on such crucial matters as de-portation, extradition, customs, and landed im-migrant status (a pre-requisite to Canadian citizen-ship). In essence it says that coming to Canada poses no major problem for the draft dodger who plans ahead. Hyde says the pamphlet is "our fastest selling item at present. We get about 50 requests a week and the number is growing." But he is quick to point out that the pamphlet is no moneymaker. "We lose two cents on every pamphlet since we send them out airmail at 17 cents. But we want to do it that way since a lot of our orders come from urgent cases." Another organization aiding draft dodgers is the Fellowship for Reconciliation, a small Christian pacifist group. The group's Canadian National sec-retary, Brewster Kneen, says he "tore up his draft card into fine pieces and mailed it back to the draft board," after moving here from Cleveland. Kneen says one of the most encouraging things about Canada to new arrivals is the lack of "pressure to become Canadian. No one makes you take on some kind of superficial idealogy. It's not like Ameri-ca where you must do it or get drummed out. I'd much rather bring up my kids here than in Cleve-land." Nicholas Volk, U.S. Vice-Consul in Toronto says he is not worried about the aid Canadian groups are giving American draft dodgers. "It's none of our concern," says Volk. "We feel it's a matter for the Canadian government. We are guests here." Volk says of draft dodging: "Anything like this naturally encourages the Communists, but general-ly I think the problem is overrated." Nonetheless American officials have taken an ac-tive interest in special cases. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police says it receives five or six inquiries a month from the Federal Bureau of Investigation seeking to find Canadian citizens who lived or work-ed in the U.S. and returned to Canada when they received their draft notices. (Canadians who live in the U.S. are subject to American draft laws.) And one draft dodger reports that a woman who had been actively finding homes for the new American arrivals was recently visited by agents from the Am-erican Secret Service and the Royal Canadian Mount-ed Police. When the officials questioned the woman about her settlement activities of the previous weekend she offered the perfect alibi. The woman explained that she had gone to see "Don Giovanni" at the Stratford, Ontario, drama festival. "Who's 'Don Giovanni'?" asked one interrogator suspiciously. Still, the amount of pressure on the draft dodgers and their friends is minimal in Canada. The U.S. expatriates point out that the absence of a Canadian draft gives them far more freedom. "Everyone thinks that because the United States is a democracy," says one expatriate, "that we are obliged to follow all its laws. But that's not true. Simply because the draft law was democratically passed doesn't mean we should be prohibited from going against it." Gen. Hershey disagrees. "Congress never took notice of political reasons for wanting to stay out of the Army. You couldn't run a democracy if every-one obeyed the laws he liked and defied the ones he didn't. Why you couldn't even run a fraternity unless everyone went along with majority decisions." Still Hershey is not dismayed by the spector of young men leaving the country to avoid the draft. `This isn't anything new," he explains. "There's always been people who've left their country to avoid conscription. The history books tell us that many of the mid-19th century immigrants to the U.S. were leaving central European countries to escape compulsory service. And a lot of them be-came fine citizens here." The Selective Service director contends that Am-erican conscription "provides the military strength to protect Canada and keep it draft free. As long as you've got a big brother around you don't have to learn how to box." Student Reformers Miss Real College Experience by Nancy Applequist "With administration and student body cooperating, it is possible for our college generation to remain in step with the current trend." This quote from October 27's editorial on the ancient apathy/involement problem is probably the worst reason for doing anything. It is a safe bet that if many of these "articulate, sensitive and enterprising college students" at other schools who speak out so boldly on The Issues knew they were doing so to be "in step with the current trend" they would about-face with all speed — (of course it might be a sloppy about-face since most of them are militantly devoted to avoiding Uncle Sam's offer of instruction in that area.) No students like being baby-sat for four years. All ap-preciate being treated as adults, especially those who are patently still adolescent. All would like to feel well-informed about issues, and most have an opinion, well-informed or not. But continuous agitation for reforms great and small is not necessarily enviable. What is the major purpose of the academic community if not academics? All.too many reformers sleep with magic marker in hand so to facilitate leaping up at a moment's inspiration to make picket signs for the latest crusade It is "in" right now to be intense, serious and issue-minded. It is "in" to quote current reformers, to be a poly sci enthu-siast and to articulate at the top of your voice. The cry is not come to the head of the class but come to the head of the rally and show you care. Young America, taking an active role in its own (school) (state) (national) government — isn't it wonderful, the torch is being passed! Too many students can't write acceptable papers for any course, can't understand a foreign language because they don't know English grammar, can't quote anybody EXCEPT current reformers because they have never heard of any major historical figures. The urge to reform too easily siren-songs students away from the basics — to say nothing of trying to grapple with the deeper philosophical mysteries of life on a somewhat sophisti-cated level. One can sing in choir, work on the paper, serve on committees, articulate in Senate like Mad, and miss the point of college. Yes, it is to make us "well-rounded" "well-informed" active citizens and participants. Yes, we should be aware of The Is-sues. But some of us are wary when anyone pulls a Pope Urban II on us and starts crusade-preaching. If there are crying abuses it is a neglect of anyone's duty not to bring them to light. But for so many college students this gets to be the biggest game since football. If I am not seriously upset about SOMETHING I am out of the trend. If I am not quoting the current reformers I am anti-intellectu-al and if I do I am afraid I will be pseudo-intellectual. In the words of that scholarly of current reformer A.E. New-man: "Nuts." Incredibly, a few people may be satisfied with a given situation — a few may even be so caught up with the wonder of learning (!) that they don't see themselves as the Twentieth Century's Peter the Hermit. We don't deny our obligation to care, we just observe that it is too easy for the college mind to care indiscriminately.

The results are as follows: fresh-men representatives—Pris Ander-son, Don Cervin, Charlene Gemar, Ken Lewis, and Carl Swanson; treasurer—Ron Skon; secretary— Pat Keim; vice-president — Gary Hassellblad; president—Dick Ste-ven. Dick will be responsible mainly for calling and presiding over class meetings. His comments are, "I am looking forward to the op-portunities of this year, and would like to thank those who supported me in the past election. "A special thanks to a few in particular who went out of their way to help and encourage me. I hope that in the coming year we as a class, will work together and that all our activities will be centered around Christ." Gary says that he is looking for-ward to a good year. His main duties are social chairman and planning special projects. Pat says, "Thank you for elect-ing me as your secretary and I will do the best that I can in that of-fice." She will record class and cabinet meetings and carry on cor-respondence. Unfortunately, Ron was not available for comment. However, his duty will be to handle the finances of the freshman class and pay any bills. The representatives' jobs are to bring ideas and problems on the floor, and to investigate problems while serving on senate commit-tees. Some of the senators remarks are as follows: Pris Anderson—"Thank every-one who voted for me. I will do my best to represent their in-terests and if there is anything they want brought up in the sen-ate, they should feel free to call me." Charlene Gemar— 'Thank you to those who voted for me. I'm will-ing to help any of those who have ideas they would like presented before the senate." Ken Lewis — "Thanks for your support. I'm going to look into the matter of National Student Assoc-iation. Anyone who would like to discuss this with me, please feel free to do so." Carl Swanson — "I'm thankful that my class thinks enough of me to have elected me. If I can help in any way as far as stu-dent government is concerned, I'll be more than happy to do so. Thanks again for electing me." Don Cervin was unavailable for comment. Battery Service — Brake Work Towing — Tire BADEN'S Pure Oil Service 1525 W. LARPENTEUR Pro rietor Jer 645-1325 by Dennis Port It had to happen! Sooner or later someone was bound to let out the secret — Baroque music is great. Monday night's concert by the Munich Chamber Orchestra was as pleasing an announcement of this fact as Handel himself might have wished. From the opening attack of Han-del's "Concerto Grosso" to the final release of Vivaldi's "The Four Sea-sons." Conductor Hans Stadlmair held the sixteen-piece orchestra under a masterful spell. Though at times nearly motionless, Stadlmair controlled every pulsation of the' music. His highly trained orchestra played with such disciplined pre- "The Ringwariths are deadly enemies, but they are only shag dows yet of the power and terror they would possess if the Ruling Ring was on their master's hand again." This is the driving force in J. R. R. Tolkien's trilogy The Lord of the Rings. In The Hobbit, an introductory novel to the trilogy, we are intro-duced to the "Hobbit" — small, stout, stocky people, supported by tough leathery feet covered with thick, curly hair—who inhabited the Shire during the Third Age of Middle-earth. The Hobbits, Frodo, Sam, Pip-pin and Merry, have been select-ed to carry the Ring to the Cracks of Doom in the depth of the Fire-Mountain which lies in Mordor. This fire is the only means to destroy the Ring which has powers of invisibility and is wholly evil and all powerful in the hands of its maker Sauron, the Dark Lord. Thus, Frodo, his friends, and kindred races (elves and men) carrying the fate of Middle-earth, journey into Mordor and thereby encounter moments of terror and the resistance of evil.

There followed a drastic stylistic transition to the late Romantic per-iod and an "Italian Serenade" by Fans from the English department —Mr. Hein, Miss Bohlmeyer, Mina Jo Woods, Linda Tschetter, Doris Bucklew and Lorraine Culver — traveled to the "Tolkien Festival" on Saturday, October 29, at Man-kato State College. The purpose of the conference was two-fold: to sponsor good literary criticism and to gather Hobbit fans together. We were addressed by several speakers from various universities includ-ing: David M. Miller, Purdue University; Dorothy K. Barbar, U. of M. Morris; and George Burke Johnston, Virginia Poly-technic Institute. Each speaker dealt with a re-lated topic such as, the meaning of The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien's moral universe, his intention in the trilogy and his sources. The highlight of the conference was Mrs. Barbar's dissertation on the meaning in the trilogy. Tol-kien, being a Christian, has de-picted good and evil as presented in the Bible, man's struggle in free will which is possessed by every living thing in Middle-earth (including the Ring), and Provi-dence which works beyond the reach of man. Thus the trilogy can be read for its Christian implications or mere-ly for the pure delight of living in a suspense-filled fantasy of Mid-dle- earth.

Managing director Craig Scherfenberg announced today that the popular drama will get a one week extension of its run, with addi-tional performances scheduled for November 4 and 5. The holdover came because of turn-away crowds and sellout per-formances, Scherfenberg said. "Death of a Salesman" stars Stu Gang and Rosemary Hartup in the tense story of a travelling salesman whose crumbling life leads him to-ward suicide. Performances are 8:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays through Nov. 5, at the theatre, 311 Ramsey St., St. Paul. Reservations are necessary. Tickets are available at Dayton's or the Eastside ticket office, 226- 0625. Eastside's next production, opening Dec. 1, will be he Meredith Willson Christmas-motif musical, "Here's Love." ART Augsburg College is pleased to announce the opening of the A. Malcolm Gimse sculpture and ceramics show in the Scholarship Gallery, October 20 to November 11. The Scholarshop, located on 23rd and River-side, reopened on September 26. This non-profit gallery was developed, and is being promoted by the Augsburg College Student Development Council. Its purpose is to exhibit the work of well known midwestern artists and that of the Augsburg students. Through the sale of these works, a scholarship fund has been established for deserving Augsburg students. The Student Development Council cordially invites you to visit the Scholarshop. The hours are: Monday through Friday 3:30 to 6:00 and Saturday and Sunday 1:00 through 6:00. MUSIC Tenor Jon Crain and Baritone Morley Meredith, both of whom have sung with the Metropolitan Opera, have been cast in the St. Paul Civic Opera's coming production of Offenbach's last opera, "Tales of Hoff-mann." The work will be presented in English at 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10 and Saturday, Nov. 12 in the St. Paul Auditorium theater. Crain, who will have the title role, is one of the busiest operatic performers on the scene today. Earlier this year he sang Hoffmann with the Geneva Opera and had a leading role in the American pre-miere of "Angel of Fire" with the New York City Opera. Last year he sang Herod in a concert performance of "Salome" with the Minneapolis Symphony. While studying for the operatic stage, Crain worked as a featured vocalist with Xavier Cugat's dance band. He also once had a coast to coast radio show under the name of Victor Brones. Also a recording artist, he sings Mr. Snow in a recent recording of Richard Rodgers' "Carousel" opposite Roberta Peters and Alfred Drake, haS recorded highlights from Hoffmann with Rosalind Elias and Marcia Singher and on the Metropolitan Guild recording of "Tosca" he is heard as Cavaradossi. Meredith made his debut at the Met in 1962 in the four baritone roles of Hoffmann, the same parts he will sing in the Civic Opera production. In addition to successes with major festivals and guest appearances with orchestras throughout the United States and Canada. Prior to his Met debut, he co-starred on Broadway with Maureen O'Hara in the musical, "Christine." Twin cities artists who will have featured roles are Joan Lindusky, 256 Twelfth Ave. S., South St. Paul; Bruce Neilson, 6313 Mildred Ave., Minneapolis; Lois Duffy, 3809 Washburn Ave. S., Minneapolis; Carol Stuart, 502 Texas Ave., Hopkins; and Christine McSpadden, 5315 Colum-bus Ave., Minneapolis. Others in the cast from the New York stage include Gail Manners, last seen here in "Marriage of Figaro" with her husband, Walter Cassel, as Guiletta; and Luigi Velluci as Cochenille. Tickets to "Tales of Hoffman" are available by mail order from the Central Ticket Office, 14 West 5th St., St. Paul. Bethel Hobbit Enthusiasts Travel to Clan Gathering German musicians played a state-ly "Divertimento" by the classi-cal master Joseph Haydn. Here especially Stadlmair projected himself into the mood and style of the music, much to the de-light of conducting enthusiasts. At times he conducted with fac-ial expressions only! But the group never faltered. The concert began Baroque and fittingly ended there too. Antonio Vivaldi's magnificent "The Four Seasons" was a delight from be-ginning to end. One hardly knew where to direct his attention; to Stadlmair, so beautifully conduct-, ing, to the solo violinist, so utter-ly intense in his virtuosity, or to the remaining orchestra members who made extremely difficult mu-sic apear quite routine! In all, the programmed "Spring," "Summer," "Autumn," and "Win-ter," were communicated at a level which this amateur would contend did justice to Vivaldi at his best.

A game has already been sched-uled with Hamline University in early December. Nothing would be sweeter than to avenge the loss suffered by the football Royals by beating the Pipers in hockey. For those unfamiliar with hockey at Bethel, the team went undefeat-ed last season playing St. Olaf Col-lege of Northfield, Minnesota and River Falls State College of River Falls, Wisconsin. The hockey team solicits campus support and will be asking students and faculty members to help by purchasing booster buttons and coming to the games. WBCS ALTERS SCHEDULE The Bethel College radio sta-tion, WCBS, has altered its broadcasting schedule. Whereas the previous broadcast period ex-tended from 5:00-10:99 p.m., the station now broadcasts from 7:00-10:88 p.m. by Tom Stocking The Seminary football team again this year has been one of the powers in the intramural lea-gue. In rolling over Asbury 26-6, Second Old 28-0, First Floor 44-0, and Third New by forfeit, the Sem-inary has appeared to be the tough est team in the league. Undoubtedly the Semnariy has shown the best offense and pos-sibly the best defense of any team in intramurals. The offense, led by quarter-back Duane Johnson and flanker Dennis Port, has relied heavily on a potent passing attack. Quarterback Johnson in three league games and in one ex-hibition has thrown fourteen touchdown passes, and Port has received six of them. Dave Kastelein, blocking back, has scored on two touchdown pas-ses, and ends Bruce Ericson and Mark Coleman are also capable receivers. The offensive line consisting of guards Bill Hoyt and Bob McNeil and center Dave Stribling, is by fat the biggest in the school, includ-ing the Bethel varsity. The blocking of the line and halfback Kastelein provides John-son with ample time to get off his passes, and to hit his re-ceivers. Equally important to the Semin-ary's success is their rugged de-fense. The line, anchored by mid-dle guard Bill Hoyt and ends Mike Bohlen and Dave Petersen, puts a tremendous rush on the opposing quarterback, causing many inter-ceptions. The linebacking of Bert Heep and Terry Port has kept the other team off balance with their blitzes, and the secondary has done an ex-cellent job of snatching errant throws caused by the strong rush. More important, however, the defense consistently keeps the other team bottled up in its own territory, giving the offense ex-cellent field position most of the time. The reason for the Seminary's, perennial strength is commonly be-lieved to be its use of former Bethel varsity letterwinners, but according to Seminary player, Den-nis Port, this is just not so. He says that no team member has ever earned a Bethel letter. But Port did say "the esprit de V.A.

Veterans eligible under the new GI Bill must have completed the following steps in order to receive educational payments from the VA for September: 1. Obtaining two copies of their Certificate of Eligibility from their Regional VA Office. 2. Presenting both copies to the college in which they are enrolled. If veterans experience delay in receiving their September pay-ments, they should check to see that their colleges have submitted one cony of their Certificate of Eligibility to the VA. In order to receive payments from October on, veterans must mail certifications of their atten-dance during the previous month to the VA. They should submit these atten-dance cards as soon as possible after the end of the month. The VA will mail payments on the 20th of the following month. corps of the Seminary is our strength." He does not deny that the Sem has excellent players, but he maintains that the spirit de-veloped between the Seminary's dozen players creates teamwork un-equaled by the other clubs. Considering that there have been many forfeits in the intramural football program this year, and after seeing how well the Semin-arians worked together, it would appear that unity and enthusiasm are vital weapons the Seminary has over other teams.

In an attempt to bolster participation this year the program was radically restructed. Now, with regular games completed and playoffs ready to begin, it's not too early to draw a few conclusions regarding the effectiveness of the new 10 team-two division setup. Basically there are two main problems. As usual parti-cipation has been poor. More about that later. Secondly the league is poorly balanced with Phelps and Seminary wiping up all competition. Phelp's defense has yet to allow a point, al-though the team has at least had some tight games. Their tough, gutty play deserves a great deal of praise. The Seminary team is another matter. Their defense has given up one lone touchdown, while the offense has rol-led up 97 points. However, praising their record is similar to calling a 300 pound bum with a switch blade "sir." They ought to be a powerhouse. An inspection of their ranks shows the pulpiteers with two boys who have been out for Bethel football, one that reportedly played for Wheaton, and one lad who was a start-ing back for Taylor. In addition, the rest of the fellows have had three or four years of intramural experience. Furthermore they have three times as many men to draw from as the college intramural teams. With superior numbers they can carry their long-winded tactics from the pulpit to the playing field. The logical way of equalizing this power would be set-ting up two teams from the Seminary. This would leave in-tramurals with only one major problem to solve — partici-pation. Traditionally participation has been worse than that in a deadpan testimony meeting and this season only 60% of scheduled games have been played. In one division As-bury took the field for only one game, losing 26-6, but tying for second place with a 2-1 record as they won two by forfiet. There are bound to be legitimate reasons for occasionally missing a game — a work conflict or a bout of malaria. But it is indeed a sad state of affairs when, out of a group of 50 or 60, there are not even eight boys who are not too dainty to engage in a game of touch football. This sort of a situation will not be corrected by any change in organization — it can only be changed by the fellows themselves.

Harriers Triumph 22-33 ; Victory Is Third Straight Page 6 the CLARION The Mayville Comets of North Dakota struck fast and furious and withstood a second half scoring drought to beat the Bethel Royals 37-13. The contest was the hardest hit-ting home clash of the season— and it shows: Ron Harris, broken wrist; Ken Irons, badly bruised shoulder; John Carmean, bruised elbow; Gary Wilson, undetermined leg injury. Mayville took the opening kick-off and marched 63 yards through the sieve-like Royal de-fense in five plays for an early score. Ron Strand, out the past two seasons with broken legs, displayed no handicaps in toting the pigskin 30 yards to paydirt. Ray Gibbons kicked the extra point, and Mayville led 7-0 after less than two minutes of play. Following the kickoff, Al Se-lander plucked a Bill Englund pass for a first down near midfield. However, the Royals were forced to punt four plays later. The Comets then moved the ball from the 22 to the 35 yard line where they were forced to punt. In the next two minutes three key breaks emerged. Englund fum-bled on his own 41 and the Comets recovered. The Bethel defense rose to the occasion and held, but a roughing-the-kicker penalty gave Mayville a first down on the Royal 26. Two plays later Strand scored again, this time on a 23 yard toss from quarterback Jim Dews. The try for point was wide. Shortly after came the break which discouraged the Royals. On the ensuing kickoff, Dave Pound came within one tackle of going 90 yards for a touch-down. As it was, the Royals had good field position on the Comet 44 yard line. Englund then hit John Carmean with a pass on the buttonhook pattern for a first down on the 32. On the next play, in eagerness to get away, Dave Moss fumbled and Mayville recovered on its own 20. This time the North Dakotans drove 80 yards with Parker Wil-liams capping the drive with a 14 yard double reverse. The kick was good. The Comets led 20-0 and the game was still in the first quarter! The Royals gallantly fought back, and aided by a 45 yard Englund- Bob Sundquist— it was that kind of day. Thursday, November 3, 1966 Carmean combination hit the scoreboard. Al Selander went over from the four for the touchdown, but the kick for point failed. Mayville scored again one min-ute later on a 62 yard spinning spectacular by fullback Tom So-holt. Ray Gibbons booted the successful PAT over the fence and out of sight. The leaders added their fifth touchdown of the half when Ken Pierce went over from two yards with 51 sec-onds left. Gibbons duplicated his feat to make the halftime score 34-6 for Mayville. With a 28 point halftime deficit, one might think of . . . The thought apparently did not enter the Royals' minds. Three minutes into the third quarter, Dave Pound "Chagrined" the Comets with a 50 yard scoring sweep. Along the way he flirted with the sidelines and nearly danced with the Mayville Last Saturday, Como Park was the site of Bethel's third straight victory in cross country. Under sunny skies and a rather cold tem-perature of forty degrees, the Royal harriers put on a fine dis-play of long distince running in topping St. Paul Bible College by a score of 22-33. Freshman Steve Johnson turned in a masterful performance in tak-ing first place in the meet. In leading his team to victory, he cov-ered the 3.8 mile course in 19:38. This was his best time, and in fact, it was only five seconds from Bethel's freshman record. Also establishing his best time, 20:45, was Steve Roe. This gave him a third place finish for his team. Two of his fellow team-mates, Dave Moulton and Dave Haring, were right behind him, the former finishing fourth and the latter taking fifth place for the Royals. Moulton's time was 20:05 while Haring's was 21:40. Ken Min-nis took ninth. The lone bright spot for St. Paul Bible College was a second place finish by Ken Ehresman. His time was 20:04. The four other partici-pants for St. Paul Bible took sixth, seventh, eighth, and tenth places. reserves. Larry Peterson added the PAT. Three characteristics marked the remainder of the game-1) hard hitting defense, 2) a leaping field goal block by Bethel's Dave An-derson, and 3) the inability of both teams to move the ball consistent-ly. (Gibbons, however, later added a field goal for Mayville.) The first and last characteristics quite possibly are related. For example, Mayville picked up 218 yards rushing the first half but only 31 in the second. On the other hand, Bethel's most potent offensive weapon, the for-ward pass, was quite sporadic. Englund hit six of eleven the first half, but only seven of twenty-four in the second. In the first down department, Mayville edged Bethel 16-15. The Royals attempt to even their season record of 3-4 in the season finale this week at Valley City, North Dakota. Saturday was a very rewarding day for Bethel's harriers. Next, Saturday at 1:00 p.m., the Royals will seek their fourth successive victory as they face a tough La- Cross team. The site for the event will once again be Como Park. REMEMBER IMPORTANT DATES Students are reminded of the following important dates: No-vember 10—Last date to drop a course, which will then not ap-pear on a student's record.

Thursday, November 3, 1966 Royal Players Schedule 'Conquest' For Four Churches During Weekend write-in votes. Wilton E. "Bill" Ledkins, the only candidate for senator - at - large, received 201 votes, a comfortable margin of 183 over previously proven loser Leonard Sammons. Tim Gibson and Della Gibbs each received two votes while 12 persons each received one. Other write-in votes recorded included six for Adele Marker, freshman treasurer, and nine for Richard Swanson, freshman senator. Those winning the freshmen seats on the Senate included Carl Swanson, 126; Priscilla Anderson, 122; Kenneth Lewis, 103; Charlene Gemar, 97; and Donald Cervin with 93. Tim Weko was the closest run-ner- up with 87. The top five freshmen in terms of votes received were Ron Skon with 129; Dick Steven, 127; Carl Swanson, 126; Pat Keim and Pris-cilla Anderson with 122. With a heavy travel schedule through three states, the Bethel Royal Players take off Friday noon on the first major jaunt of their young touring season. Six actors and director Dale Rott will span 1200 miles before Sunday evening as they appear on two special church programs and assist in three Sunday worship services. The drama personnel will pre-sent the familiar "Conquest in Bur-ma" four times over the weekend to churches who have requested that it be presented in their lo-calities. In addition, they will give the dialogue sermon "Sacrifice— No!" at one point on the trip. First stop is Waverly, Iowa, where "Conquest in Burma" will highlight a special missionary rally sponsored Friday evening by several churches. The next evening brings the troupe to Ev-anston, Illinois, where they will feature the same play at a spe-cial fall rally in the Calvary Baptist Church. Sunday they move north to West Allis, Wisconsin, and the Beloit Road Baptist Church there. During the Sunday School hour they will again perform "Conquest in Bur-ma." following with the Dialogue Sermon as the main portion of the morning worship hour. Another long stretch of travel will carry the group to central Wisconsin where they have scheduled an ev-ening performance of "Conquest in Burma" Sunday. "Conquest in Burma" details the major events in the life of Adoni-ram and Ann Judson, first mission-aries to Burma. Dale Cope and Mary Ruetten play these leads, with Jill Graham as Narrator; Character and supporting roles are handled by Dave Stagg (playing three parts), Darryl Berg (with two roles), Bob Bryant, Jeff Loomis, and Director Rott. The play is by Albert Johnson of the University of Redlands in California. Dale Cope also plays the cen-tral figure, Man, in the dialogue sermon, as he is beset by contra. dictory viewpoints offered from the Tempter, played by Dave Stagg, and Conscience, enacted by Darryl Berg. Also as part of the hour in which the sermon is presented, Mr. Rott will nar-rate "Nails" and Jill Graham will sing two solos. The weekend tour is among an ever-growing list of in-church pre-sentations undertaken by the Roy-al Players. Sunday evening, Octo-, ber 30, they offered "The Cup of Freshman and transfer students have received the "deal of a stu-dent life time" this past week at the Bethel Bookstore. It has been the "Campus-Pac"—a $2.50 value of varied toiletries for 25 cents. From the small fee charged, the Bethel Bookstore in conjunction with the Student Personnel Com-mittee is giving a $50 grant-in-aid applicable to second semester to some worthy freshman. Mr. Bob Bergerud announced to-day that Bethel Bookstore recently made arrangements for another re-markable opportunity. All campus coeds will receive free a "Student Gift-Pac." It contains about $1.00 worth of Prell, Hidden Magic, Tam-pax and Safeguard soap. The "Gift-Pats" are available at the cash register of the Bethel Bookstore. A receipt card must be filled in at the time of receiving the "Gift-Pac." It asks for name, class, address of school, and home address. The manufacturers pro-mise that these cards will not be used for further advertising. The "Gift-Pats" are available at the Bookstore now. The offer is limited to one to a girl, and each Trembling," the Homecoming Play this year, at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Minneapolis. The same play will be given at Warrendale Presbyterian Church, 1040 Como Avenue, on November 13 at 7 p.m. Presentations of both these dra-mas are part of the Royal Players' continual attempt to spread the message of church drama's rele-vance in an age, when, as Mr. Rott phrases it, "we need dynamic forms to enhance our message in `waking up' the world." girl must sign for her own. Be-ginning on Wednesday, November 9, they will be available to female faculty and staff, and then, if any remain at the end of the day, to faculty and staff wives. Arrangements are being made by Mr. Bergerud to have a male "Gift- Pac" available—likely in February or March. Olivet Nazarene College of Kan-kakee, Illinois was host last week to the American Association of Evangelical Students. The confer-ence held on Thursday and Fri-day, October 27 and 28, was at-tended by three delegates from Bethel College. Chief consideration for the con-ference was the theme "Our Chris-tian Heritage." Dr. Gordon Clark, and Dr. Martin Marty were two prominent guests at the regional conference who addressed them-selves to the relationship of his-tory and the Christian. Dr. Clark in a one hour ad-dress spoke to the delegates on "The Marxist Theory of History," of the delegates represented Bible colleges, with a sizable represen-tation from Christian liberal arts schools. Representatives from Bethel were Jim Keim, Linda C. Olson, and Jonathan P. Larson. The delegation left the campus Wed-nesday and returned Saturday. Sidelights to the conference were the performance of Frostiana by the Olivet Orpheus, Viking, and Trebel choirs, and an evening din-ner concluding the meetings. Business confronting the con-ference included a discussion of the purposes of the organization, the ideological stance of the or-ganization, and the increased de-sire for exchange of ideas between representative schools. The Conference Board of Publi-cations voted this summer to offer a fifty dollar award to that stu-dent of Bethel College or Seminary preparing the outstanding piece of creative writing during the year. The entries must be submitted to the English department of the College by March 1, 1967. They will be judged by the editorial staff of Harvest Publications and the winning entry will be published in the appropriate Harvest Publica-tions periodical. The award will be made at the Bethel Honors Convocation May 23, 1967. This Martin Erikson Journalism Award was made possible by a perpetual fund established by his widow and the Board of Publica-tions in memory of Martin Erikson, editor of the STANDARD from 1945 to 1962. Hans Stadlmair, conducting maestro of the world famous Munich Chamber Orchestra, leads that ensemble in a stirring rendition of Baroque music here Mondy evening. A concert review is found on page four of this week's CLARION. and Dr. Marty spoke on Friday on two occasions, "Carrying the Burden of Our History," and later "Travelling Light: The Christian Use of History." The conference was punctuated by numerous discussion sessions designed to analyze current cam-pus problems and provide a forum for the free flow of student ideas and reactions. Topics of discussion included, "The Place of Student Opposition on Christian Campuses," "The Effect of Campus Publication in Stimulating Creative Leader, ship," "Christian Responsibility in Regard to Political Affairs." Representatives from sixteen col-leges were present. The majority Campus Coeds Receive Bethel Bookstore Offer Two weeks of campaigning end-ed Friday at 4:00 for freshmen, junior, and a lone all-school can-didate. In freshmen elections Pat Keim was elected secretary with 122 votes as contrasted with 60 for her opponent Gloria Netterlund. Ron Skon was chosen treasurer by a 129-37 margin over WBCS head announcer Bob Bryant. In the freshman vice-presiden-tial race Gary Hassellblad beat Glenn "Tuli" Havumaki 121-63. It was a disappointing election for the New England CYF vice-president in his Bethel debut. In the election for President of the class of 1970, the Pit's Dick Steven beat off-campus Keith An-derson, 127-53.

Page 2 the CLARION Thursday, November 3, 1966 Letters to the Editor: Swelling Gulf of Purpose Letters View Articles, Gifts, Prayer Presently Faces AAES by Jonathan P. Larson The AAES, American Association of Evangelical Students is an organization trapped in a limbo of purposes and goals. Though it has existed for ten years, it is evident that the or-ganization lacks a feeling of direction. The Preamble of the AAES constitution declares that it is dedicated first to foster a bond of Christian fellowship be-tween member student bodies. This is indeed a worthy intent. Yet the association has failed to realize this for one reason. The AAES is not influential enough to hold a strong place in the college publications, and as a result in the minds of the individual student body members. If an organization is to be strong, the basis from which it draws its support must be in-formed and concerned about its existence. To build and organi-zation apart from the personal lives of its members is to build upon a weak foundation. 2) AAES exists to propose study of and suggest solutions to mutual problems. The Association has partly fulfilled this declared intent through the various discussion sessions. In-creased effectiveness of the discussion sessions could be effected through a more intense focus by the guest speakers on current problems which nag and in some instances have riddled our Christian campuses. • 3) AAES is dedicated to promoting the highest standard of scholarship among member schools. This will be a very diffi-cult purpose to pursue. Judging from the present strength of the organization it would be inconceivable that the AAES could make any progress in this direction within the next five years. Concrete plans to boost academic standards have not been laid. In fact, this seemed to be a neglected plank in the inter-action of the delegates. 4) AAES is to aid member schools in fulfilling the goals and purposes of the individual institutions. Here again the AAES addresses itself to the individual constituent schools. Yet to date the AAES has failed to penetrate the floating nebulous organization held together by erratic newsletters which find their way into student council files. 5) AAES exists to promote and exercise an active in-terest in the affairs of national, state, and local govern-ments and social institutions. The AAES sees itself as an organization that will confront students on evangelical cam-puses with the importance of politics and society as it bears on the existence of the church. This will require a large or-ganized staff to prepare material on a relevant way, and dis-seminate this material throughout the schools. Campus co-ordinators from the AAES will have to be insightful people capable of discerning local political problems and publi-cizing them in an intelligent, objective manner. This is a big order, far beyond the present capacity of the AAES to fulfill. 6) AAES proports to promote creative student leadership as an integral part of the educational .'process for the purpose of effective student government. Because AAES con-ferences are attended by student leaders, the dialog which occurs in such a situation is probably the sanest purpose the AAES has set forth. For the delegate, a broader under-standing of campus problems is inevitable, and a coordinated search for an answer to these problems will indeed be a creative effort resulting in more competent and mature leaders. AAES is straddling a widening gulf. The organization must either enisage a broader staff, with an increased budget, and more intimate contact with its constituents, or else redefine itself in terms of the material it has at hand. A failure to do so will result in the eventual collapse of the association. If the AAES chooses to do the former, programs for progress will be necessary. Strong leaders that can consolidate and expand will be at the top of a need list. The life of this organization will be determined by its ability and decision to choose, and then to act. Twin City Colleges Open For Interlibrary Exchange by Leonard Sammons On Tuesday night, November 1, the Bethel Student Senate layed aside any claim it had of being an, effective representative body. The meeting had an encouraging start as Mr. Keim reminded visitors of their right to address the Senate when the large band of visitors began to ask questions regarding last week's renewal of NSA membership. After only token response from Senators, the Senate led by Bob Olson and Ron Stone limited in-struction to two more minutes. This Miss Kathy Harvie prompt-ly filled by reading from the NSA manual. The action to limit discussion was opposed by Ken Lewis, John Sailhamer and three other sen-ators. Three weeks ago this observer noted that lack of communication between students and Senators was the fault of both. However, it is now necessary for me to recant that opinion. The students do not deserve any blame; it must go to the Senators. When the Senate turns down the queries of a dozen students with no more than pat answers, they take upon themselves the complete blame. The Senate spent much of the remainder of the evening discus-sing how they could explain the NSA issue to the senate body. Led by Miss Harvie, they called for an "objective" article to be put in the CLARION next week. This observer thinks this idea poor for two reasons: 1) Mr. Keim Bethel College students may use other Twin Cities libraries subject to certain regulations. Bethel par-ticipates in an interlibrary loan agreement with Augsburg, Ham-line, Macalester, St. Catherine, and St. Thomas colleges that permits borrowing books when requested by a librarian from the student's home institution. Bethel students wishing to use a book that is not in Bethel's col-lection should ask a librarian if the book may be borrowed from one of the other libraries. The librarian will call these libraries and arrange for the loan. The stu-. dent can then pick up the book at the other library by presenting The fourth annual Kansas City Poetry Contests offering $1,600 in prizes and the publication of a book-length manuscript have been announced by Thorpe Menn, liter-ary editor of the Kansas City Star, who is to write the article, is ob viously committed to one side of the issue. Therefore, any attempt to call the article "objective" would be erroneous. 2) The Senate refused to explain its views in the meeting to those who obviously were interested. It would be the height of hypoc-risy to put it in the CLARION for the benefit of those who are probably not as interested. The attempt of Bill Ledkins to establish a forum or debate to inform students on what NSA is, what it does, and why we joined was defeated, 10-6. One cannot help but wonder if this was not from fear on the part of Senators that the students would reveal themselves as opposed to t h e deeds of the Senate. the yellow slip he receives from the librarian. Policies vary at other libraries. The Bethel Seminary library will loan -up to five books on the col-lege student's identification card. St. Paul Bible College and Bethel College and Seminary libraries have an informal arrangement which allows students to borrow books freely from each others' lib-raries. The St. Paul Public Library issues student cards to students from St. Paul colleges. Most other libraries require a deposit or charge a fee to bor-rowers who are not a part of the community they serve. However, most libraries permit use of their materials on the library premises. one of four sponsors of the con-tests. Six $100 awards will be offered to college students for single poems in the Hallmark Honor Prize competition, sponsored by Hallmark Cards, Inc., the Kansas City greeting card publisher. The Dr. Edward A. Devins Award will offer a $500 advance on royalties for a book-length manuscript to be published and distributed by the University of Missouri Press. Both the Hall-mark and the Devins awards are offered on a national basis. Two additional competitions are open to residents of the Mid-Am-erica region. Four $100 prizes are offered for single poems by the Kansas City Star, and high school students in the area may compete for four $25 prizes awarded by H. Jay Sharp, a Kansas City business-man. Closing date for submission of entries is February 1, 1967. The winners will be announced on Ap-ril 27, 1967, at the last event of the 1966-67 American Poets' Ser-ies at the Jewish Community Cen-ter in Kansas City. Complete rules may be obtained by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope to: the cross said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." For additional background to this read I Peter 2:13-21. It is fine for the Clarion to have controversial articles in it, but being we are a Christ centered school, let's have the Christian view point, too. Some secular papers have more scripture than I have seen so far in the Clarion. Speaking out, Douglas Olson To the Editor: During the intermission at the Dick Anthony concert, many of us in attendance were deeply impress-ed by Dr. Lundquist's announce-ment that two parties are each contributing $100,1000 to Bethel. Should this not cause us as Bethel students to pause and eval-uate our relationship to God, to Bethel, and to our world? With people so dedicated to our school, we must do our best to make our Bethel experience a wise invest-ment for them. We may be more than willing to gain from classes, from chapel. and from inter-personal relations, but in addition we must be prompt-ed to give, "for it is in giving that we receive." Are you worth an investment? Bev Swenson To the Editor: My friend and I are writing in regard to the prayer that was of-fered in chapel on Wednesday, the 26th of October. In this prayer we heard the request "Lord, help our boys in Viet Nam KILL, if need be." Because of man's sinfulness, we understand that it becomes neces-sary for one to take up arms against his fellow man. But to ask God's sanction on killing is hypo-critical. Instead of asking God's blessing on our killing, we ought to fall on our knees before God asking for His forgiveness and seek God's guidance in attaining peace among men.

Minn. Subscrip-tion rate $3 per year. Editor-in-chief John Halvorsen Assistant Editor Jonathan P. Larson News Editor Jeff Loomis Feature Editor Nancy Johnson Sports Editor Lynn Bergfalk Photography George Saunders Business Manager John Tegenfeldt Advisor Wallace Nelson Opinions expressed In the CLARION do not necessarily reflect the position of the college or seminary. To the Editor: On reading the last two issues of the Clarion, I have been read-ing the very controversial articles on the inside pages. Some are from the right wing, some from the left, some pacifist, and some ridi-cule of the present administration, but I don't find article #1 on ex4 pressing what the Bible has to say and a Christian's view point. The Biblical view point should be ex-; pressed in the Clarion. Could it be true that on Bethel's campus there is no one student who knows enough about different scriptural doctrines to present that viewpoint? I find that very hard to believe! Why couldn't the campus pastor be invited to express his views in a column with each issue or why not invite each faculty member to express his or her views one in each issue in a column devoted to faculty members and occasionally the campus pastor. Most of all the students should be participating. In answer to some of these con-troversial items mentioned in the Senate Observer Students Confront Senate With NSA first paragraph, I would like to express what the Bible has to say concerning these things. If you will take out your Bible and turn to the 13th chapter of Romans and read it through, I think you will find some definite answers to what God's Word has to say concerning these things. What does the passage say to your heart? Look at the 7th verse and note that it doesn't say, if you agree with the political party or the way the wars are being run. In the 8th verse it says "Owe no one anything . . ." Do you suppose that might include our government and its leaders, who according to verse 1 are ". . . instituted by God" and in verse 2 "Therefore he who re-sists the authorities resists what God has appointed and those who resist will incur judgment." Christ was obedient unto death to earthly governments which He gave authority to in the first place to glorify His Father. He also knew that these men could be brought into a terrible judgment for the wrong they had committed, but on College Poetry Contest Encourages Competition,Manuscript Publication Thursday, November 3, 1966 the CLARION Page 3 Canadians Welcome Draft Dodgers by Roger Rapoport The Collegiate Press Service (Last of a two-part series) TORONTO — "I've always thought a man had an obligation to go fight where his country tells him to," says Corporal Ron McIntosh, a career soldier with the Canadian Army. "But it seems to me that the United States hasn't given its boys much of an explanation on why they should go to Viet Nam. So if they want to come up here to escape the draft it's fine with me." Most of official Canada views things the same way. Police, civic, and university administrators as well as the press solidly endorse the right of U.S. citizens to avert conscription. U.S. diplomatic and military officials are not visibly dismayed by the situation either. "There's no reason to get your blood pressure up when you have a few hundred draft dodgers amidst 30 million draft registrants," National Se-lective Service Director Lt. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey said. "You can't have a sawmill without a little sawdust and these draft-dodgers are just sawdust. Besides I don't think they are much of an asset to the United States. I've told my Canadian friends that they are welcome to them." Canada seems happy to oblige. "We don't even think about it," says a spokesman for the city of Toronto in the town's posh new city hall. "What's the saying? What you don't know doesn't hurt you," he says whimsically. A spokesman for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police explains that the draft status of U.S. im-migrants is not a matter of Canadian concern. And the Toronto Globe and Mail wrote in a recent editorial, "The granting of political asylum is an accepted principle in all civilized countries. Canada cannot decently breach this principle." At the University of Toronto admissions director E.M. Davidson says the draft status of American applicants is not a factor in admission to the school. "We admit exclusively on academic and behavioral grounds." Davidson has noticed no upsurge of applicants from American men to the school. In fact, the num-ber of U.S. male applicants has fallen off in recent months. "But that's probably because the draft is draining off a lot of our prospective American students," he explains. Several Canadian organizations actively assist ex-patriates. The Student Union for Peace Action with headquarters at 659 Spadina St. has become the Wel-come Wagon for American draft dodgers. It helps new arrivals to settle. While SUPA leader Tony Hyde is quick to explain that his organization "makes no move to get people to come up here," it has published an informative 15-cent pamphlet called "Coming to Canada?" for "Americans concerned about the possibility of being drafted." The informative document includes all perti-nent information on such crucial matters as de-portation, extradition, customs, and landed im-migrant status (a pre-requisite to Canadian citizen-ship). In essence it says that coming to Canada poses no major problem for the draft dodger who plans ahead. Hyde says the pamphlet is "our fastest selling item at present. We get about 50 requests a week and the number is growing." But he is quick to point out that the pamphlet is no moneymaker. "We lose two cents on every pamphlet since we send them out airmail at 17 cents. But we want to do it that way since a lot of our orders come from urgent cases." Another organization aiding draft dodgers is the Fellowship for Reconciliation, a small Christian pacifist group. The group's Canadian National sec-retary, Brewster Kneen, says he "tore up his draft card into fine pieces and mailed it back to the draft board," after moving here from Cleveland. Kneen says one of the most encouraging things about Canada to new arrivals is the lack of "pressure to become Canadian. No one makes you take on some kind of superficial idealogy. It's not like Ameri-ca where you must do it or get drummed out. I'd much rather bring up my kids here than in Cleve-land." Nicholas Volk, U.S. Vice-Consul in Toronto says he is not worried about the aid Canadian groups are giving American draft dodgers. "It's none of our concern," says Volk. "We feel it's a matter for the Canadian government. We are guests here." Volk says of draft dodging: "Anything like this naturally encourages the Communists, but general-ly I think the problem is overrated." Nonetheless American officials have taken an ac-tive interest in special cases. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police says it receives five or six inquiries a month from the Federal Bureau of Investigation seeking to find Canadian citizens who lived or work-ed in the U.S. and returned to Canada when they received their draft notices. (Canadians who live in the U.S. are subject to American draft laws.) And one draft dodger reports that a woman who had been actively finding homes for the new American arrivals was recently visited by agents from the Am-erican Secret Service and the Royal Canadian Mount-ed Police. When the officials questioned the woman about her settlement activities of the previous weekend she offered the perfect alibi. The woman explained that she had gone to see "Don Giovanni" at the Stratford, Ontario, drama festival. "Who's 'Don Giovanni'?" asked one interrogator suspiciously. Still, the amount of pressure on the draft dodgers and their friends is minimal in Canada. The U.S. expatriates point out that the absence of a Canadian draft gives them far more freedom. "Everyone thinks that because the United States is a democracy," says one expatriate, "that we are obliged to follow all its laws. But that's not true. Simply because the draft law was democratically passed doesn't mean we should be prohibited from going against it." Gen. Hershey disagrees. "Congress never took notice of political reasons for wanting to stay out of the Army. You couldn't run a democracy if every-one obeyed the laws he liked and defied the ones he didn't. Why you couldn't even run a fraternity unless everyone went along with majority decisions." Still Hershey is not dismayed by the spector of young men leaving the country to avoid the draft. `This isn't anything new," he explains. "There's always been people who've left their country to avoid conscription. The history books tell us that many of the mid-19th century immigrants to the U.S. were leaving central European countries to escape compulsory service. And a lot of them be-came fine citizens here." The Selective Service director contends that Am-erican conscription "provides the military strength to protect Canada and keep it draft free. As long as you've got a big brother around you don't have to learn how to box." Student Reformers Miss Real College Experience by Nancy Applequist "With administration and student body cooperating, it is possible for our college generation to remain in step with the current trend." This quote from October 27's editorial on the ancient apathy/involement problem is probably the worst reason for doing anything. It is a safe bet that if many of these "articulate, sensitive and enterprising college students" at other schools who speak out so boldly on The Issues knew they were doing so to be "in step with the current trend" they would about-face with all speed — (of course it might be a sloppy about-face since most of them are militantly devoted to avoiding Uncle Sam's offer of instruction in that area.) No students like being baby-sat for four years. All ap-preciate being treated as adults, especially those who are patently still adolescent. All would like to feel well-informed about issues, and most have an opinion, well-informed or not. But continuous agitation for reforms great and small is not necessarily enviable. What is the major purpose of the academic community if not academics? All.too many reformers sleep with magic marker in hand so to facilitate leaping up at a moment's inspiration to make picket signs for the latest crusade It is "in" right now to be intense, serious and issue-minded. It is "in" to quote current reformers, to be a poly sci enthu-siast and to articulate at the top of your voice. The cry is not come to the head of the class but come to the head of the rally and show you care. Young America, taking an active role in its own (school) (state) (national) government — isn't it wonderful, the torch is being passed! Too many students can't write acceptable papers for any course, can't understand a foreign language because they don't know English grammar, can't quote anybody EXCEPT current reformers because they have never heard of any major historical figures. The urge to reform too easily siren-songs students away from the basics — to say nothing of trying to grapple with the deeper philosophical mysteries of life on a somewhat sophisti-cated level. One can sing in choir, work on the paper, serve on committees, articulate in Senate like Mad, and miss the point of college. Yes, it is to make us "well-rounded" "well-informed" active citizens and participants. Yes, we should be aware of The Is-sues. But some of us are wary when anyone pulls a Pope Urban II on us and starts crusade-preaching. If there are crying abuses it is a neglect of anyone's duty not to bring them to light. But for so many college students this gets to be the biggest game since football. If I am not seriously upset about SOMETHING I am out of the trend. If I am not quoting the current reformers I am anti-intellectu-al and if I do I am afraid I will be pseudo-intellectual. In the words of that scholarly of current reformer A.E. New-man: "Nuts." Incredibly, a few people may be satisfied with a given situation — a few may even be so caught up with the wonder of learning (!) that they don't see themselves as the Twentieth Century's Peter the Hermit. We don't deny our obligation to care, we just observe that it is too easy for the college mind to care indiscriminately.

The results are as follows: fresh-men representatives—Pris Ander-son, Don Cervin, Charlene Gemar, Ken Lewis, and Carl Swanson; treasurer—Ron Skon; secretary— Pat Keim; vice-president — Gary Hassellblad; president—Dick Ste-ven. Dick will be responsible mainly for calling and presiding over class meetings. His comments are, "I am looking forward to the op-portunities of this year, and would like to thank those who supported me in the past election. "A special thanks to a few in particular who went out of their way to help and encourage me. I hope that in the coming year we as a class, will work together and that all our activities will be centered around Christ." Gary says that he is looking for-ward to a good year. His main duties are social chairman and planning special projects. Pat says, "Thank you for elect-ing me as your secretary and I will do the best that I can in that of-fice." She will record class and cabinet meetings and carry on cor-respondence. Unfortunately, Ron was not available for comment. However, his duty will be to handle the finances of the freshman class and pay any bills. The representatives' jobs are to bring ideas and problems on the floor, and to investigate problems while serving on senate commit-tees. Some of the senators remarks are as follows: Pris Anderson—"Thank every-one who voted for me. I will do my best to represent their in-terests and if there is anything they want brought up in the sen-ate, they should feel free to call me." Charlene Gemar— 'Thank you to those who voted for me. I'm will-ing to help any of those who have ideas they would like presented before the senate." Ken Lewis — "Thanks for your support. I'm going to look into the matter of National Student Assoc-iation. Anyone who would like to discuss this with me, please feel free to do so." Carl Swanson — "I'm thankful that my class thinks enough of me to have elected me. If I can help in any way as far as stu-dent government is concerned, I'll be more than happy to do so. Thanks again for electing me." Don Cervin was unavailable for comment. Battery Service — Brake Work Towing — Tire BADEN'S Pure Oil Service 1525 W. LARPENTEUR Pro rietor Jer 645-1325 by Dennis Port It had to happen! Sooner or later someone was bound to let out the secret — Baroque music is great. Monday night's concert by the Munich Chamber Orchestra was as pleasing an announcement of this fact as Handel himself might have wished. From the opening attack of Han-del's "Concerto Grosso" to the final release of Vivaldi's "The Four Sea-sons." Conductor Hans Stadlmair held the sixteen-piece orchestra under a masterful spell. Though at times nearly motionless, Stadlmair controlled every pulsation of the' music. His highly trained orchestra played with such disciplined pre- "The Ringwariths are deadly enemies, but they are only shag dows yet of the power and terror they would possess if the Ruling Ring was on their master's hand again." This is the driving force in J. R. R. Tolkien's trilogy The Lord of the Rings. In The Hobbit, an introductory novel to the trilogy, we are intro-duced to the "Hobbit" — small, stout, stocky people, supported by tough leathery feet covered with thick, curly hair—who inhabited the Shire during the Third Age of Middle-earth. The Hobbits, Frodo, Sam, Pip-pin and Merry, have been select-ed to carry the Ring to the Cracks of Doom in the depth of the Fire-Mountain which lies in Mordor. This fire is the only means to destroy the Ring which has powers of invisibility and is wholly evil and all powerful in the hands of its maker Sauron, the Dark Lord. Thus, Frodo, his friends, and kindred races (elves and men) carrying the fate of Middle-earth, journey into Mordor and thereby encounter moments of terror and the resistance of evil.

There followed a drastic stylistic transition to the late Romantic per-iod and an "Italian Serenade" by Fans from the English department —Mr. Hein, Miss Bohlmeyer, Mina Jo Woods, Linda Tschetter, Doris Bucklew and Lorraine Culver — traveled to the "Tolkien Festival" on Saturday, October 29, at Man-kato State College. The purpose of the conference was two-fold: to sponsor good literary criticism and to gather Hobbit fans together. We were addressed by several speakers from various universities includ-ing: David M. Miller, Purdue University; Dorothy K. Barbar, U. of M. Morris; and George Burke Johnston, Virginia Poly-technic Institute. Each speaker dealt with a re-lated topic such as, the meaning of The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien's moral universe, his intention in the trilogy and his sources. The highlight of the conference was Mrs. Barbar's dissertation on the meaning in the trilogy. Tol-kien, being a Christian, has de-picted good and evil as presented in the Bible, man's struggle in free will which is possessed by every living thing in Middle-earth (including the Ring), and Provi-dence which works beyond the reach of man. Thus the trilogy can be read for its Christian implications or mere-ly for the pure delight of living in a suspense-filled fantasy of Mid-dle- earth.

Managing director Craig Scherfenberg announced today that the popular drama will get a one week extension of its run, with addi-tional performances scheduled for November 4 and 5. The holdover came because of turn-away crowds and sellout per-formances, Scherfenberg said. "Death of a Salesman" stars Stu Gang and Rosemary Hartup in the tense story of a travelling salesman whose crumbling life leads him to-ward suicide. Performances are 8:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays through Nov. 5, at the theatre, 311 Ramsey St., St. Paul. Reservations are necessary. Tickets are available at Dayton's or the Eastside ticket office, 226- 0625. Eastside's next production, opening Dec. 1, will be he Meredith Willson Christmas-motif musical, "Here's Love." ART Augsburg College is pleased to announce the opening of the A. Malcolm Gimse sculpture and ceramics show in the Scholarship Gallery, October 20 to November 11. The Scholarshop, located on 23rd and River-side, reopened on September 26. This non-profit gallery was developed, and is being promoted by the Augsburg College Student Development Council. Its purpose is to exhibit the work of well known midwestern artists and that of the Augsburg students. Through the sale of these works, a scholarship fund has been established for deserving Augsburg students. The Student Development Council cordially invites you to visit the Scholarshop. The hours are: Monday through Friday 3:30 to 6:00 and Saturday and Sunday 1:00 through 6:00. MUSIC Tenor Jon Crain and Baritone Morley Meredith, both of whom have sung with the Metropolitan Opera, have been cast in the St. Paul Civic Opera's coming production of Offenbach's last opera, "Tales of Hoff-mann." The work will be presented in English at 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10 and Saturday, Nov. 12 in the St. Paul Auditorium theater. Crain, who will have the title role, is one of the busiest operatic performers on the scene today. Earlier this year he sang Hoffmann with the Geneva Opera and had a leading role in the American pre-miere of "Angel of Fire" with the New York City Opera. Last year he sang Herod in a concert performance of "Salome" with the Minneapolis Symphony. While studying for the operatic stage, Crain worked as a featured vocalist with Xavier Cugat's dance band. He also once had a coast to coast radio show under the name of Victor Brones. Also a recording artist, he sings Mr. Snow in a recent recording of Richard Rodgers' "Carousel" opposite Roberta Peters and Alfred Drake, haS recorded highlights from Hoffmann with Rosalind Elias and Marcia Singher and on the Metropolitan Guild recording of "Tosca" he is heard as Cavaradossi. Meredith made his debut at the Met in 1962 in the four baritone roles of Hoffmann, the same parts he will sing in the Civic Opera production. In addition to successes with major festivals and guest appearances with orchestras throughout the United States and Canada. Prior to his Met debut, he co-starred on Broadway with Maureen O'Hara in the musical, "Christine." Twin cities artists who will have featured roles are Joan Lindusky, 256 Twelfth Ave. S., South St. Paul; Bruce Neilson, 6313 Mildred Ave., Minneapolis; Lois Duffy, 3809 Washburn Ave. S., Minneapolis; Carol Stuart, 502 Texas Ave., Hopkins; and Christine McSpadden, 5315 Colum-bus Ave., Minneapolis. Others in the cast from the New York stage include Gail Manners, last seen here in "Marriage of Figaro" with her husband, Walter Cassel, as Guiletta; and Luigi Velluci as Cochenille. Tickets to "Tales of Hoffman" are available by mail order from the Central Ticket Office, 14 West 5th St., St. Paul. Bethel Hobbit Enthusiasts Travel to Clan Gathering German musicians played a state-ly "Divertimento" by the classi-cal master Joseph Haydn. Here especially Stadlmair projected himself into the mood and style of the music, much to the de-light of conducting enthusiasts. At times he conducted with fac-ial expressions only! But the group never faltered. The concert began Baroque and fittingly ended there too. Antonio Vivaldi's magnificent "The Four Seasons" was a delight from be-ginning to end. One hardly knew where to direct his attention; to Stadlmair, so beautifully conduct-, ing, to the solo violinist, so utter-ly intense in his virtuosity, or to the remaining orchestra members who made extremely difficult mu-sic apear quite routine! In all, the programmed "Spring," "Summer," "Autumn," and "Win-ter," were communicated at a level which this amateur would contend did justice to Vivaldi at his best.

WBCS ALTERS SCHEDULE The Bethel College radio sta-tion, WCBS, has altered its broadcasting schedule. Whereas the previous broadcast period ex-tended from 5:00-10:99 p.m., the station now broadcasts from 7:00-10:88 p.m. by Tom Stocking The Seminary football team again this year has been one of the powers in the intramural lea-gue. In rolling over Asbury 26-6, Second Old 28-0, First Floor 44-0, and Third New by forfeit, the Sem-inary has appeared to be the tough est team in the league. Undoubtedly the Semnariy has shown the best offense and pos-sibly the best defense of any team in intramurals. The offense, led by quarter-back Duane Johnson and flanker Dennis Port, has relied heavily on a potent passing attack. Quarterback Johnson in three league games and in one ex-hibition has thrown fourteen touchdown passes, and Port has received six of them. Dave Kastelein, blocking back, has scored on two touchdown pas-ses, and ends Bruce Ericson and Mark Coleman are also capable receivers. The offensive line consisting of guards Bill Hoyt and Bob McNeil and center Dave Stribling, is by fat the biggest in the school, includ-ing the Bethel varsity. The blocking of the line and halfback Kastelein provides John-son with ample time to get off his passes, and to hit his re-ceivers. Equally important to the Semin-ary's success is their rugged de-fense. The line, anchored by mid-dle guard Bill Hoyt and ends Mike Bohlen and Dave Petersen, puts a tremendous rush on the opposing quarterback, causing many inter-ceptions. The linebacking of Bert Heep and Terry Port has kept the other team off balance with their blitzes, and the secondary has done an ex-cellent job of snatching errant throws caused by the strong rush. More important, however, the defense consistently keeps the other team bottled up in its own territory, giving the offense ex-cellent field position most of the time. The reason for the Seminary's, perennial strength is commonly be-lieved to be its use of former Bethel varsity letterwinners, but according to Seminary player, Den-nis Port, this is just not so. He says that no team member has ever earned a Bethel letter. But Port did say "the esprit de V.A.

He does not deny that the Sem has excellent players, but he maintains that the spirit de-veloped between the Seminary's dozen players creates teamwork un-equaled by the other clubs. Considering that there have been many forfeits in the intramural football program this year, and after seeing how well the Semin-arians worked together, it would appear that unity and enthusiasm are vital weapons the Seminary has over other teams.

In an attempt to bolster participation this year the program was radically restructed. Now, with regular games completed and playoffs ready to begin, it's not too early to draw a few conclusions regarding the effectiveness of the new 10 team-two division setup. Basically there are two main problems. As usual parti-cipation has been poor. More about that later. Secondly the league is poorly balanced with Phelps and Seminary wiping up all competition. Phelp's defense has yet to allow a point, al-though the team has at least had some tight games. Their tough, gutty play deserves a great deal of praise. The Seminary team is another matter. Their defense has given up one lone touchdown, while the offense has rol-led up 97 points. However, praising their record is similar to calling a 300 pound bum with a switch blade "sir." They ought to be a powerhouse. An inspection of their ranks shows the pulpiteers with two boys who have been out for Bethel football, one that reportedly played for Wheaton, and one lad who was a start-ing back for Taylor. In addition, the rest of the fellows have had three or four years of intramural experience. Furthermore they have three times as many men to draw from as the college intramural teams. With superior numbers they can carry their long-winded tactics from the pulpit to the playing field. The logical way of equalizing this power would be set-ting up two teams from the Seminary. This would leave in-tramurals with only one major problem to solve — partici-pation. Traditionally participation has been worse than that in a deadpan testimony meeting and this season only 60% of scheduled games have been played. In one division As-bury took the field for only one game, losing 26-6, but tying for second place with a 2-1 record as they won two by forfiet. There are bound to be legitimate reasons for occasionally missing a game — a work conflict or a bout of malaria. But it is indeed a sad state of affairs when, out of a group of 50 or 60, there are not even eight boys who are not too dainty to engage in a game of touch football. This sort of a situation will not be corrected by any change in organization — it can only be changed by the fellows themselves.

Harriers Triumph 22-33 ; Victory Is Third Straight Page 6 the CLARION The Mayville Comets of North Dakota struck fast and furious and withstood a second half scoring drought to beat the Bethel Royals 37-13. The contest was the hardest hit-ting home clash of the season— and it shows: Ron Harris, broken wrist; Ken Irons, badly bruised shoulder; John Carmean, bruised elbow; Gary Wilson, undetermined leg injury. Mayville took the opening kick-off and marched 63 yards through the sieve-like Royal de-fense in five plays for an early score. Ron Strand, out the past two seasons with broken legs, displayed no handicaps in toting the pigskin 30 yards to paydirt. Ray Gibbons kicked the extra point, and Mayville led 7-0 after less than two minutes of play. Following the kickoff, Al Se-lander plucked a Bill Englund pass for a first down near midfield. However, the Royals were forced to punt four plays later. The Comets then moved the ball from the 22 to the 35 yard line where they were forced to punt. In the next two minutes three key breaks emerged. Englund fum-bled on his own 41 and the Comets recovered. The Bethel defense rose to the occasion and held, but a roughing-the-kicker penalty gave Mayville a first down on the Royal 26. Two plays later Strand scored again, this time on a 23 yard toss from quarterback Jim Dews. The try for point was wide. Shortly after came the break which discouraged the Royals. On the ensuing kickoff, Dave Pound came within one tackle of going 90 yards for a touch-down. As it was, the Royals had good field position on the Comet 44 yard line. Englund then hit John Carmean with a pass on the buttonhook pattern for a first down on the 32. On the next play, in eagerness to get away, Dave Moss fumbled and Mayville recovered on its own 20. This time the North Dakotans drove 80 yards with Parker Wil-liams capping the drive with a 14 yard double reverse. The kick was good. The Comets led 20-0 and the game was still in the first quarter! The Royals gallantly fought back, and aided by a 45 yard Englund- Bob Sundquist— it was that kind of day. Thursday, November 3, 1966 Carmean combination hit the scoreboard. Al Selander went over from the four for the touchdown, but the kick for point failed. Mayville scored again one min-ute later on a 62 yard spinning spectacular by fullback Tom So-holt. Ray Gibbons booted the successful PAT over the fence and out of sight. The leaders added their fifth touchdown of the half when Ken Pierce went over from two yards with 51 sec-onds left. Gibbons duplicated his feat to make the halftime score 34-6 for Mayville. With a 28 point halftime deficit, one might think of . . . The thought apparently did not enter the Royals' minds. Three minutes into the third quarter, Dave Pound "Chagrined" the Comets with a 50 yard scoring sweep. Along the way he flirted with the sidelines and nearly danced with the Mayville Last Saturday, Como Park was the site of Bethel's third straight victory in cross country. Under sunny skies and a rather cold tem-perature of forty degrees, the Royal harriers put on a fine dis-play of long distince running in topping St. Paul Bible College by a score of 22-33. Freshman Steve Johnson turned in a masterful performance in tak-ing first place in the meet. In leading his team to victory, he cov-ered the 3.8 mile course in 19:38. This was his best time, and in fact, it was only five seconds from Bethel's freshman record. Also establishing his best time, 20:45, was Steve Roe. This gave him a third place finish for his team. Two of his fellow team-mates, Dave Moulton and Dave Haring, were right behind him, the former finishing fourth and the latter taking fifth place for the Royals. Moulton's time was 20:05 while Haring's was 21:40. Ken Min-nis took ninth. The lone bright spot for St. Paul Bible College was a second place finish by Ken Ehresman. His time was 20:04. The four other partici-pants for St. Paul Bible took sixth, seventh, eighth, and tenth places. reserves. Larry Peterson added the PAT. Three characteristics marked the remainder of the game-1) hard hitting defense, 2) a leaping field goal block by Bethel's Dave An-derson, and 3) the inability of both teams to move the ball consistent-ly. (Gibbons, however, later added a field goal for Mayville.) The first and last characteristics quite possibly are related. For example, Mayville picked up 218 yards rushing the first half but only 31 in the second. On the other hand, Bethel's most potent offensive weapon, the for-ward pass, was quite sporadic. Englund hit six of eleven the first half, but only seven of twenty-four in the second. In the first down department, Mayville edged Bethel 16-15. The Royals attempt to even their season record of 3-4 in the season finale this week at Valley City, North Dakota. Saturday was a very rewarding day for Bethel's harriers. Next, Saturday at 1:00 p.m., the Royals will seek their fourth successive victory as they face a tough La- Cross team. The site for the event will once again be Como Park.
