more additions and changes.
Robert Clark Nelson, assistant
professor of art at Bethel, was re-cently
announced as one of three
top award winners in the Walker
Art Center 1966 biennial of paint-ing
and sculpture. With the honor
goes a prize amounting to $400.
An exhibit of the winning ar-tist's
entries as well as the work
of other competitors will be held
during the next month at the Wal-ker
galleries in Minneapolis, clos-ing
October 30. Represented are
the works of 117 different artists
from among 585 who entered the
recent competition. They come
from a five-state region.
The jurors for the competition
selected one painting from each
artist for showing. Mr. Nelson's
abstract, "Double Momentum," will
represent him in the display. The
acrylic polymer is hung in a dia-mond
form, and shows two over-lapping
shapes vying for space.
Its colors are bright purple,
and the system should be in op-eration
there by January, so that
the mailing department will be
able to distribute outgoing mail
much faster, and at possible sav-ings.
Elsewhere the new equipment
will be used to store and supply
detailed information more effi-ciently
and quickly than can be
done now. Presently, the storage
site for the new equipment is un-determined,
but it will be located
somewhere in the college building.
The board, in other actions,
approved Dr. Virgil Olson's visit
to the missionary field during
the winter quarter, and appoint-ed
Herman Tegenfeldt as mis-sionary-
in-residence at the sem-inary.
Tegenfeldt was the last
missionary to be expelled from
service in Burma.
Since this was the first board
meeting of the school year, three
new members participated in the
session.
They are Dr. Vincent Cyfers,
chairman of the physical education
department at Colorado State Col-lege;
Dr. Dale Smith, dentist in
Sawyer, Michigan; and Rev. Peter
Unruh, pastor of Wooddale Baptist
Church, Minneapolis.
The new members, elected last
June, will serve until 1971.
Under the advisorship of Mrs.
Catherine Williams, Dean of Wo,
men, the Bethel Women's Associ-ation
will hold its annual Big and
Little Sister Banquet at 6:30 p.m.
Tuesday, October 4, at the First
Christian Church of Minneapolis.
T h e theme of the program is
orange, and yellow, and its tex-ture
hard-edged.
Jurors who judged the entries
all came here from the East. Two
are New Yorkers, Raymond Parker,
a painter, and Brian O'Doherty, a
critic, and the third a Bostonian,
Sue Thurman, who directs the In-stitute
of Contemporary Art in
that city.

Radio stations of the students,
by the students, and for the stu-dents
are a mushrooming pheno-menon
on college campuses across
the nation.
Recently Bethel came into pos-session
of adequate radio equip-ment
and has begun broadcasting
to the dormitories on campus.
WBCS is located at 7.20 and 6.80
on campus radio dials.
J. David Patterson, transfer
student from Northwestern Uni-versity
and recent graduate of
Bethel, was first to press for a
campus station. A Student Sen-ate
investigation of the matter
led to the acquisition of excellent
used equipment from commer-cial
station KSTP who used the
donation as a tax deduction.
Due to lack of technicians and
funds the equipment lay idle for a
full year. The dovetailing of a $350
gift from the class of 1966 and the
"Changes", and Miss Effie Nelson,
German teacher at Bethel, will be
the main speaker. Mistress of cer-emonies
will be Sharon Jones, the
BWA's president.
The program will consist of the
invocation, Mrs. Carl Lundquist;
a vocal number by a male quartet;
skit, sophomore class; "Expecta-tions",
senior Karen Bergstrom;
"Response", freshman girl; solo,
Dan Wickman; speech, Miss Effie
Nelson; benediction.
The annual banquet is designed
to provide a good opportunity for
freshman girls to become better
acquainted with both their "Big
Sisters" and with the Bethel Wo-men's
Association.

Expanding New Facilities
May Curb Student Affairs
Bethel is growing. So what's new? Enrollment has increas-ed
each year. The news story on page one concerning recent
decisions of the Board of Education gives further evidence of
expanding facilities. In many respects this is a sign of vitality
and strength. It shows that the school has something to offer
the twentieth century college student academically, culturally,
socially, and spiritually. We applaud this growing worth of
Bethel College.
However, in an effort to derive strength in its expansion
there are vital veins supplying the college's lifblood that may
be severed from feeding the main arteries.
I am concerned at this point that the expanding adminis-trative,
research, accounting, and business facilities neces-sary
to handle a large student population may choke student
operated affairs and student services from existence merely
by limiting the space they demand for efficient, effective
operation.
Again referring to the story on page one I quote, "Present-ly
the storage site for the (new data) processing equipment is
undetermined, but it will be located somewhere in the college
building." "Where," I ask, "is there space in the college build-ing
for such storage other than rooms occupied by student
service operations?" And space limitations for these operations
are already at the bare minimum. Conditions are far from ideal.
I give you a few examples: 1) The Student Senate office
and the campus radio station must share the confines of one
fifteen by fifteen foot room. 2) The SPIRE office is much to
small for efficient operation. 3) The COEVAL, the campus lit-erary
magazine, has no office space. 4) The CLARION is hamp-ered
from expanding the efficiency of its operation and campus
coverage for lack of space. The workers are there, but they
all can't be used for lack of facilities. 5) The Coffee Shop needs
little remark concerning inadequacy of facilities, nor does the
Bookstore. These are but a few of the more obvious examples.
As we see it, there are two obvious solutions to the prob-lem:
1) Purchase additional space for student centered af-fairs;
2) Cut enrollment in half so that the present facilities
could serve their functions properly.
Solution number two seems unlikely. That leaves us with
one suggestion. The present expansion technique of purchas-ing
houses in the community seems feasible to meet at least
part of the problem. For example, a publications house and
a student government house could be established.
Oh, there would be some expense. But is this a school of
the administration, by the administration, and for the adminis-tration,
or is it of the Conference, by the Conference, and for
the Conference, or might it possibly be of the Conference, by
the administration, and for the student?

Male chorus members bid a fond farewell as they prepare to
board a TWA jet in transit to Europe.
Bethel Chorus' European Travelers
Recall Highlights of Summer's Tour
by Barb Conway
It seemed like June 5th would
never arrive, but finally, after
weeks of planning, making ar-rangements,
and saving money, the
Bethel Male Chorus left for its
long awaited trip to Europe.
The fourty-four members of the
group, including Dr. Dalton, ad-visor,
and Mr. C. Howard Smith,
the director, enjoyed a bon voyage
from many well-wishers as they
left the Bethel campus by bus.
After the bus ride to Chicago's
O'Hare Airport, the boys boarded a
TWA jet to begin the first of nine
flights which they were to take
during the complete trip.
The tour of Europe took six
weeks during which forty-nine
performances were given. As can
be imagined, a most rigorous
pace was kept as the chorus tra-veled
from one place to another,
giving concerts and seeing as
much of each country as possi-ble.
In spite of the hectic schedule,
or maybe because of it, the Male
Chorus experienced an unprece-dented
trip which none of them
will ever forget.
The first concert was given in
Bergin, Norway, and the last was
presented in London, England. In
between, the chorus traveled hun-dreds
of miles, singing in Sweden,
Denmark, Germany, Holland, and
Scotland. Everywhere they went,
they received favorable reviews in
by Leonard Sammons
At 7:00 p.m., September 26, ten
senators, three officers, Mr. Hal-leen
and one press representative
saw Dave Livingston call the Sen-ate
to order. There was no new
business.
The committee-of-the-whole per-iod
was spent discussing the whys
of having a Senate and what the
Senate could do this year. Many
areas were brought up in which
the Senate could consider acting
in both religious and social areas.
Dick Schultz and Dick Olson
were particularly active in the
first area and Schultz and Ron
Stone in the latter. All the Sen-ate
did, however, was list these
areas. Among these areas were,
in religious, lack of Sunday even-ing
worship among students, lack
of personal devotions, chapel at-tendance,
lack of people partici-pating
in Christian service, and
making better use of summer mis-sionaries
who speak in a chapel
and little more.
What can be done by the Senate
about most of these areas is not
readily apparent but it may be
reassuring to know this year's
Senate has high designs for itself.
Certainly, it can do nothing re-garding
personal devotions, how-ever
desirable this may or may
not be.
About all it would seem they
could do for stimulating interest

The most outstanding welcome
was received at the town of
Norrkoping, Sweden, which had
hung American flags all along
the bridge entering into the
town. It was welcomes such as
this which made all the head-aches
and problems of the trip
seem trivial.
Some of the highlights of the
trip included a concert at the dedi-cation
of the newly constructed
campus of the Bethel Seminary in
Stockholm, Sweden, singing in
Princes Garden in Edinburgh, Scot-land,
and performing at two Uni-ted
States Air Force Bases in Ger-niany
and the Netherlands.
The two most outstanding high-lights,
though, were at Westfalen-park
in Dortmund, Germany, and
in front of the bombed out Bethel
Baptist Church in East Berlin.
The first of these two con-certs
was sung to a crowd of
3,500 people in the largest park
on the continent of Europe. As
the chorus sang on an island in
the middle of the park, and
sounds of hymns sung in English
and German reverberated across
the waters.
The second performance, though
not heard by as many people, was
the most impressive of all because
the chorus sang Luther's hymn "A
Mighty Fortress Is Our God" in a

Broadway production of Flower
Drum Song, will head an all star
cast in the St. Paul Civic opera's
coming production of the delight-ful

civic opera director Glenn
Jordan, announced.
The glowing and colorful por-trait
of life in San Francisco's
Chinatown will be the first of-fering
of the civic opera's 1966-
67 season. It will open on Mon.,
Oct. 10 and continue through Sun.,
Oct. 16 in the St. Paul Auditorium
theater. Performances will be at
8:30 p.m. Monday through Satur-day
with matinees at 2:30 p.m. on
Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 15 and
16.
The vivacious Miss Suzuki,
whose big booming voice belies
her petite stature, burst upon
the Broadway scene when she
brought down the house with
her rendition of "I Enjoy Being
a Girl" during the Flower Drum
Song opening in New York's St.
James theater on December 1,
1958.
Not really an unknown before
the opening of Flower Drum, Miss
Suzuki had toured with the na-tional
company of Teahouse of the
August Moon and had made a
tremendous impact upon the na-tion's
television audience with ap-pearances
on the Jack Paar show,
land where God has been decreed
as non-existent.
The group of Christian. East Ber-liners
who met in front of the
church to listen to the Male Chorus
made the tour members realize the
common bond between Christians
which overcomes cultural, lingual,
and political differencts.
This trip, like any other, was
not complete without its lighter
moments. None of the chorus
members will forget the abun-dant
use of shaving cream on
the bus, the open-faced sand-wiches,
nor John Allen's having
to hitchhike to Stockholm be-cause
he got left behind at Upp-sala.
Meaningful and deep experiences
made this first European tour such
a success that the Chorus hopes to
return in 1970.
The brand-new Minneapolis Sym-phony
series of Thursday eight o'-

offers the student the best buy he
has ever had for his entertainment

Orchestra's history duplicate con-certs
will be given.
That means that the general pub-lic
will be able to attend Minnea-events
from getting too small. It
is to be doubted that much will be
done here.
The only action the Senate took
was to approve a motion by Dick

Pat, whose real first name is
Chiyoko, was born in Cressey,
Calif., the youngest of four chil-dren
of Mr. and Mrs. Chiqoksaku
Suzuki. The local grocer in Cres-sey
couldn't pronounce Cyiyoko so
he called her "Pat" and the name
stuck.
A graduate of San Jose State
College in California, Pat credits
her discovery to Bing Crosby
who heard her sing at the Col-ony,
a night club in Seattle.
After hearing her, Crosby was
so enthralled he returned three
more times and told friends,
"She's a great bet for the big

'Let Us Continya
The time is Nov. 14, 1972. Mrs. Lady Bird Johnson has just been
elected President of the United States as a stand-in for her husband,
Lyndon, who was prohibited from running for office a third time.
The President-elect was asked about her plans.
"President Lady Bird—I mean, President Johnson—"
"Jist call me Lady Bird," the new President said.
"How does it feel to be the first female President of the United
States?"
"I'm elated, I jist feel like I could fly," she said.
"Does this mean that you will continue the 'War on Prosperity'?"
"Yes. We're the only nation in the world without any poor people
and this is embarrassing," Lady Bird said.
"What will be the major program of your administration?"
"Beautification of national and international resources," she said.
"Can you be more specific?"
"Yes. Those awful craters in Vietnam need fixing and all those
bullet casings need to be raked up and hauled away," the President-elect
said.
"What national beautification projects did you have in mind?"
"Well, that unsightly hole in Arizona should be filled with sand,"
she said.
"You mean the Grand Canyon?"
"Yes, that big hole that all the tourists see. It can't help but create
a negative reaction in the enlightened tourists," Lady Bird said..
"Won't this proposal anger Senator Patricia Nixon (R-Ariz.)?"
"Yes, it might. But she can always get Fulbright to investigate
the matter," she said.
"You mean Elizabeth Fulbright?"
"Yes, she's taking up where her husband left off."
"Now that the KuKlux Klan and Deacons for Defense have the
atomic bomb how do you plan to end the war between them?"
"I hope to get them to the conference table," Lady Bird said. "Do
you know, young man, 10 years ago these fellows wouldn't have even sat
at the same table together. We've come a long way."
"Do you feel that relations between the United States and Southern
Rhodesia are worsening?"
"No, I do not," the President-elect said. "Coretta is performing
her diplomatic duties very intelligently."
"You do mean Mrs. Martin Luther King?"
"Yes. She wired me this morning and said she is planning to
picket the Rhodesian Parliament."
"Lady Bird, do you have any big surprises for the American
people?"
"Like I said, young man, I intend to continya the policies of
Lyndon."

Notes Optimism For New Year
SPAN Offers Travel Opportunities;
Lasting Impact Rewards Participants
by Judith Hatfield
Bethel students living with In-dian
tribes? What next!
Every year several students from
the Bethel Student Missions Pro-ject
travel to various mission sta-tions
to help in whatever way they
can throughout the summer.
Ruth Phillips, Bethel junior,
lived with a tribe in the moun-tains
of Southern Columbia
where she kept house, cooked,
and helped the American nurse.
The Indians were Roman Cath-olic
and the nurse was Alice
Clough, a Protestant from Wy-cliff
translators.
"It was partly because Miss
Clough was the first Protestant
they had ever seen, that the In-dians
were afraid to come for
medical help unless the children
were really sick. There were many
cases of whooping cough," related
Ruth.
Life was simple — most people
were farmers. "Their life was re-ligion,
plus a little bit of farming."
Diana Christian was also in
Colombia this summer but was
not living in any cultural tribe.
She worked on a linguistics pro-ject
and felt her work was most
rewarding spiritually.
Ixmiquiltan, Mexico, 100 miles
north of Mexico City, is where
Steve Anderson spent ten weeks
translating Greek. He felt the most
important event was seeing how
missionaries lived, when as a stu-dent
missionary he worked in na-tive
tribes for two days.
Cindy Meyer, also 100 miles north
of Mexico City, lived in the little
Indian village of Tetsu. She spent
her summer typing for the Wycliff
Bible translators. Says Cindy, "It
was a wonderful experience to
make me see what missions are
doing today."
Nelda Gustafson and Kathy
Swanson both worked in Costa
Rica this summer. Nelda worked
in San Jose at the Seminary li-brary.
Working with such dedi-cated
people made her summer
much more rewarding.
"It was great to see what enthu-siastic
witnesses the students in
the seminary were," she said.
Kathy worked in the office of
Evangelism in Depth.
"You can't sum up the whole
summer in one statement," she
SPAN, Student Project for Am-ity
among Nations, is a project
originated by the University of
Minnesota, incorporating Bethel
and eight other Minnesota colleges.
SPAN offers sixty college students
the unique opportunity of spend-ing
two summer months abroad,
pursuing independent research
projects.
An accredited Upper Division,
Graduate level course at the Uni-versity
of Minnesota, SPAN has
two objectives. First, to promote
understanding and friendship a-mong
nations, and second, to pro-vide
this opportunity of study for
college students.
The SPANer receives twelve
quarter credits or eight semes-ter
credits on completion of his
project. The student selected for
SPAN has demonstrated scholar-ship,
self-reliance, and maturity.
He should have an interest and
knowledge of world affairs.
There are three phases of the
SPAN program. First, at college,
the students are chosen in the
spring a year before going abroad.
Groups of students meet regular-ly
with advisors to learn about the
countries they are to visit. They
also start working on their indi-vidual
projects.
Second, abroad the students
spend eight weeks working on
their projects and getting to know
the people of their countries.
Third, back home the students
resume college life, write a paper
summarizing their project and
share their experiences by speech-es,
articles, and discussions.
This past summer two Bethel
sudents, Linda Olson and Joan
said. "It was a really rewarding
and encouraging summer. I saw
how Christians of all denomina-tions
work for the furthering of
the Gospel."
by John Halvorsen
Playing to a capacity crowd of
mostly freshmen or new students,
the large percentage of whom were
single girls, Saturday evening,
September 24, the Bethel Drama
Department exposed "New Tal-ents"'
to the college community in
Lecture Hall 106.
The talents of the new actors
were unveiled in three produc-tions,
"Passing of the Third Floor
Back," "Lily," and "Construction."
The entire evening was charac-terized
by the word amatuer. The
acting was generally less than high
school caliber with some of it still
lost back in the Sunday School
pageant.
With few exceptions lines were
just spoken. There was little real
dialogue acting together. The clum-siness
with which most followed
their blocking was also indicative
of not being "in character."
The directing as well was in-dicative
of student directors still
in the learning stages.
We shouldn't however, be too
Meckley, participated in the
SPAN program.
Linda went to Argentina. Her
project concerned t h e Jewish
young people of Buenos Aires. She
lived with a Jewish family while
i n Argentina and came back
through Central America, visiting
missionaries en route. Her paper
will take an analytical and socio-logical
approach to the Jewish
young people in the Argentinian
society.
Joan went to Ethiopia where
she observed the students at the
Public Health College in Gondar.

How can I help a foreign student
understand and adapt to the Uni-ted
States? How can I present the
Gospel to someone in a different
culture? How can I become in-volved
in the life of a missionary
or national? How can I become
acquainted with missions as a real-ity?
World Missions Fellowship can
help you find the answers to these
questions and more. W.M.F. has
planned various activities for this
school year. First on the calendar
is the International Dinner i n
which Bethel students invite for-harsh
in our judgements, for per-fection
cannot be expected from
persons working together for the
first time with just a week and a
half practice.
Just a few general remarks:
"Third Floor" was almost of the
Sunday School caliber, character-.
ized by rather amateur acting. It
was paced poorly, going nowhere.
There was little sense of build to
a climax. The personalities of
the actors could not, in many
cases, transcend the roles they
were playing.
"Lily" from this vantage point
almost got out of hand. In a melo-drama
the audience has a chance
to give vent to its feelings. Booing,
hissing, whistling, and applause
are great. The peanut throwing
barrage and nosethumbing on the
part of actors is out.
The only factor holding "Con-struction"
together was the text of
the play itself. Again the play was
paced poorly. When the climax
came, it appeared almost as a
shock. There was little build to-

She also visited the Holy Land on
her reurn trip.
SPAN has sent over eight hun-dred
students to more than thirty-five
countries. Its influence has
truly been felt in other colleges.

a similar program and the Uni-versity
of Florida is contemplat-ing

eign students from nearby schools
to a dinner here at Bethel.
During the year interesting pro-grams
will be presented in which
the practical issues of missions will
be grappled with. WMF is also
planning a project for someone
in Latin America. Also, this year,
WMF will be more directly in-volved
in the Student Missionary
Project.

ward it. There were a few in-stances
when some actors slipped
into character, but this was only
for an instant.
Basing judgements only on the
Saturday performance, we would
say that the best "new talents"
were found in Arlene Nelson and
Bob Bryant in "Third Floor," Lyn
Hanson, Steve Pederson and Lana
Neander in "Lily," and Janet Hurt,
Jerry Loomis, David Carlson and
Roberta Parks in "Construction."

Reputed Erickson Heroics Pace
Bethel's Pros Past 'Pen Staters'
by Paul Erickson
A strong second half surge,
sparked by fifth-string quarterback
Paul Erickson, enabled the cour-ageous
Royal Scrubs (B team) to
nip the highly-rated Stillwater Pri-son
Colts in a Saturday afternoon
game at the visitors' field (for the
Pen Staters, all contests are home
games.)
Erickson completed passes of 30
and 7 yards and ran for an addi-tional
18. He would have connected
on several more, had not the tricky
prison air currents whisked the
well-intentioned passes 25 to 30
yards past the straining Bethel re-ceivers.
The first half of the contest fea-tured
two touchdown passes from
Sitte to McDonald. Bethel scored
twice more in the second half,
when Erickson threw a smashing
block, allowing Craig Peterson to
scamper 80 yards with a pass in-terception.
The remaining tally came on a
29-yard field goal after Bethel's
offense was stopped on three
straight plays from inside the ten.
The final score: Bethel 22, Still-water
13.

Gospel Team Leader Stays In Korea;

by Nancy Johnson
James Carlson, who will be a
Junior at Bethel this fall, is pre-sently
leading a team of four other
college men at the Seoul City
Youth Crusade in Korea. The cru-sade
was scheduled for September
19-25, but he is continuing to hold
meetings in that area after the cru-sade.
Jim was given special permis-sion
to report late for classes, and
will arrive at Bethel Monday, Octo-ber
3.
Last spring Jim traveled with
his father, Rev. Harold Carlson,
pastor of the First Baptist
Church of Lakewood, California
to Seoul, Korea. While there he
spent ten days at the Korea
Christian Conference Grounds.
During this time Jim spoke at
many meetings in high schools, col-leges,
English speaking clubs, and
International Christian Fellowship
Groups. "I told them a little bit
about the United States, but I also
tried to tell them what I felt life
was really all about," he stated.

of the Conference Grounds told
him of the city-wide crusade plan-ned
for this fall. "As I was getting
ready to leave he asked me if there
would be any chance that I could
come to help them in this crusade."
Jim told them that he would
try if at all possible. During the
summer many doors were open-ed,
and Jim was allowed to go
back for this large crusade.
The meetings were held in one
of the large city stadiums, and
crowds of 40,000 to 50,0010 were
being expected. More than 2,000
Korean Christians met a week be-fore,
every night, in special prayer
meetings for this crusade.
Jim commented, "There are four
and one-half million young people
in Seoul, Korea. It is estimated,
however, that 70% of these young
people have absolutely no religion
at all."
During Jim's first year at
Bethel he did a considerable a-mount
of speaking with a gospel
team throughout St. Paul and

Before leaving for Seoul Jim
summed up his feeling saying, "As
I am on the threshold of this great
opportunity to go to Seoul, Korea
and present the Gospel, I some-times
feel like the responsibility
is greater than I could ever han-dle.
I am totally leaving my part
in the hands of Jesus Christ, pre-paring

thought in mind that whatever hap-pens
there in Seoul will be the
work of God, not the work of any

but a major change has been made
in team structure.
Teams heretofore have been
formed by an annual draft of in-coming
students. If a rookie had
been drafted by the Barons, for
example, he would have been a
Baron for the duration of his illus-trious
career at Bethel, unless he
were traded.
This year, however, the teams
will be based on Edgren Dorm
wings, residence extensions (for-merly
termed "Honor Houses"),
and the Seminary.
According to intramural director
John Benson, there will be twelve
teams: seven from Edgren, three
from the extensions, and two from
the Seminary. The twelve-team lea-gue
represents an expansion of
three from last year.
It is hoped that the new setup
will promote increased individual
participation and heightened team
unity because of geographical
proximity.
Benson also disclosed that the
teams will be divided into two

It's that time of year again. Clear, sunny days with brisk
winds stir the imagination and revitalize the mind. Crisp
nights turn the leaves red and gold, and we're into the school
year again. Time for classes, time for studying, time for football,
and among other things, time for Charles Schulz's annual
saga of Charlie Brown, Lucy, and the football.
Every fall Lucy convinces Charlie Brown to let her hold
the football for him while he kicks it. And every year, just as
he gets up a full head of steam, Lucy pulls the ball away and
Charlie Brown goes flying helplessly through the air, landing
on his back with a resounding WUMP! Even though she plays
the same trick on him annually, Lucy can always persuade
Charlie Brown to give her another chance.
Of course, Charlie Brown and Lucy may have little rel-evance
to the Bethel sports scene. But, leaving all theological
implications to Robert L. Short and his GOSPEL ACCORDING
TO PEANUTS, this little story only portrays an interesting
incident concerning two kids and a football. Perhaps some
think similarly about college football — only casual enter-tainment
like the evening comic strip.
However, there should be a deeper significance to inter-scholastic
athletics than this, and perhaps this is manifested
in the players themselves. On the practice field or in the
fierce competition of the game, lifelong qualities are being
acquired and developed; lifelong friendships and memories
are being formed. These things remain decades after games
are played and forgotten, and help to make sports invaluable
as an addition to the academic focus of Bethel life.
Although only a comparative few can compete on the
"front line" of activity, every student can participate in Bethel
sports in a less spectacular way. That is by according the team
a more active interest than the interest most show in reading
"Peanuts."
The cheers and enthusiasm of fans can be a real inspira-tion
to any team. And more cheers, more enthusiasm could
help Bethel sports achieve a new peak in "meaning" — a
meaningfulness that includes the entire student body.
As I said, there's not much connection between Charlie
Brown and Bethel sports. But sometimes I can't help wondering
if a somewhat lethargic student body doesn't pull the ball away
From a fast-charging Bethel team.
