Conference Missionaries Visit MissionsWeek
by Miriam Mansilla
What do North Americans think
of missionaries and missions?
What do nationals think of mis-sionaries?
What do you as a stu-dent
think of a foreign country
and its standards of living? What
do other nationals think of nation-al
Christians? Finally, why all
these questions?
World Missions Week is apt
proaching and these questions will
be dealt with in our chapels. Six
Baptist General Conference mis-sionaries
on furlough will visit
Bethel to try to answer these
questions relevant to our Chris-tian
expression today.

Why did eighty-two students de-scend
on Walker Art Center No-vember
5th? Who were they? They
were fine arts students taking ad-i
vantage of the 25c trip and free
tour of the paintings, sculpture,
graphics, and oriental arts.
Abstract expressionism was the
first type of painting viewed. In a
war scene, a picture depicted this
feeling in the vivid red and black
colors with a sharp brush stroke.
The entire second floor of the
center was devoted to modern art
and several of the guides looked
rather "moddish" as well. The odd.
looking male guide with long hair
and girl's glasses sometimes at-tracted
more attention than any-thing
else.
Eight Sculptors: The Ambiguous
Image, was the title of the special
exhibit of objects which appear to
be something that they really are
not. Examples of this were a sculp-tured
man in a real telephone
during July and August to work
with ant•-Communist youth groups
there. Keene spent the summer
months in Vietnam.
In reporting on the activities of
the Freedom Corps and setting
forth the reasons for organizing
the new Student Committee, Keene
said: "There is one thing that we
all learned in the Freedom Corps:

There were seval pieces which
made ordinary objects in life a
work of art, so that the object's
original function is lost—i.e., a
chair made of straight pins.
Sculptures of man in modern art
showed him as a being who had
retained his dignity while being
trapped by his own means in this
age of machinery.
SENIORS REQUIRE
GRADUATION APPLICATION
Seniors are reminded that they
must complete an application for
graduation and return the form
to the Registrar's Office by No-vember

Each senior must fill out one
of these forms even if he is not
intending to graduate in June
1967. These forms were distrib-uted
to all seniors at the opening
of school in September but addi-tional
copies are available in the

Extreme Rightest Billy James Hargis
Presents Gospel Of Anti-Liberalism
by Linda Carol Olson
Pedantry and rabble-rousing at
a minimum, the Bethel College
Student Senate met Monday even-ing
in a most productive session.
Distinguished by an obvious con-cern
for greater intra-government
cohesiveness the governing body
considered a total of twelve legis-,
lative proposals, passing nine of
them.
The theme of greater govern-ment
unity and responsibility
was forwarded in three propos-als
by Senator Dick Schultz. His
move to require "all committee
chairmen to attend Student Sen-ate
meetings as least once a
month" passed unanimously.
His second proposal however,
requiring all student representa-tives
on faculty committees "to
submit written reports in person
to Senate every other month" was
defeated after Advisors Halleen
and Dalton pointed out that much
discussion on such committees is
tentative and not free for public
perusal.
Schultz then, in a third motion,
amended motion #2 to include
"The reports should he approved
by the appropriate faculty com-mittee
chairman." With this ad-dition,
the motion passed.
Senate aid to the hockey team
was a second major theme high-lighting
Monday's meeting. A
tabled motion by Ron Stone from
the previous week's meeting ask-ing
that $700 be appropriated
to the hockey team for coverage
of "practice fees and partial
equipment and uniform costs"
was again tossed before a wary
Senate.
Debate centered around the
source of such money. An utter-ance
that perhaps the $600 allot-ted
to the presently-dormant Aca-demic
Committee might be used
for this purpose met with strong
disapproval from several Senators
John Sailhamer, who says he
may be interested in chairing the
now-chairless Academic Commit-tee
himself, remarked after the,
meeting, "What a comment it is
on a school which would readily
support a hockey team at the
expense of its academic responsi-bility."
Bob Olson motioned the tab-ling
of this motion once again
by Art Blessing
With the singing of "America"
the "Christian Crusade" rally be-gan
last Friday evening at the
Pick-Nicollet Hotel in Minneapolis.
After about an hour of prelimin-aries
including special religious
music, announcements, and the
first offering, a large man made
his way through the audience to
the platform — enter Dr. Billy
James Hargis.
Hargis is the founder and direc-tor
of the "Christian Echoes Na-tional
Ministry," popularly known
as the Christian Crusade. The
twenty-year old organization is
headquartered in Tulsa where Har-gis
is also pastor of the Cathedral
of the Christian Crusade.
Although under the guise of
fundamentalism, the Crusade
deals primarily in ultra-conser-vative
political propaganda via
lectures, large quantities of
tracts, books, records, tapes, per-iodicals,
1,400 weekly radio
broadcasts heard nationwide, a
television series, an "anti-com-munism
school," and some forty-nine
films.
Hargis is very disturbed about
the fact that recently the Internal
Revenue Service revoked his tax-exempt
status on the grounds that
he was more devoted to influenc-

The President's trip
The on-come of winter and the
present elections have both wit-nessed
a fair share of snow—for
which they are historically infa-mous.
Like winter's cold wind,
President Johnson's cold shoulder
seems to have buried all potential
issues under seventeen days of po-litical
ice.
Covering over 31,000 smiles, his
trip has accomplished much: name-ly
nothing, which, depending on
one's perspective, is much.
However, with jazz concerts,
dances, demonstrations and, let
me see, oh yes, conferences, a
good time was had by all—ex-until
a Homecoming finance re-port,
which might expose some
unused funds, is available. For
the present, Mr. Stone was ap-peased
with a release from the
Senate's dwindling General Fund
of $250 to cover the hockey
team's immediate practice ex-penses.
Of special interest to the whole
student body should be the re-port
submitted by Senators Dave
Ahlquist and Ron Stone on the
several types of honor code sys-tems
presently being used in col-leges
and universities throughout
the nation.
Other motions which the Sen-ate
deliberated upon and passed
were:
"I move that the Cultural
Committee be urged to under-write
a Bethel block of tickets
to various cultural events in the
Twin Cities and sell them at
reduced rates to Bethel students.
(Linda Olson)
"I move that a committee be or-ganized
to vigorously and immedi-ately
begin work on the renovation
of the Coffee Shop." (Linda Olson)
ing legislation than to religion. If
he receives adequate financial sup-port
from his followers, he intends
to fight this all the way to the
U.S. Supreme Court.
In his hour-long, rambling dia-tribe,
Hargis presented his latest
commentary on the American
scene. As he covered most of the
usual far-right topics, from the UN
to sex mores, he demonstrated an
almost unbelievable inability to
deal with facts, logic, and rational
thought.
In his perspective all issues
are clearly black and white. He
demonstrated this simplistic cat-egorizing
again and again: "We
believe conservatism is in the
will of God and is a continuation
of the message of Christ;" "Lib-eralism
is a greater threat to
America than Communism;" "If
you're theologically conservative,
you cannot be politically liber-al."
". . :Come out from among
them, and be ye separate';" "Any
senator who voted against the
Dirksen Amendment on volun-tary
prayer and Bible reading
should be defeated!"
To emphasize the latter point,
Hargis read the names of all the
U.S. Senators who voted against
the bill. No mention was made of
the complex issues involved here-cept
the housewives here at
home who have to buy the food.
Red Chinese Weaponry
The big, paper tiger once again
made a 20 kiloton roar. Only this
time, in doing so, it leaped over
600 miles. Suspicions are that it
was a paper roar and probably
a psychological leap.
Religion
Rt. Rev. James A. Pike, the
greatest iconoclast since Caliph
Omar I, has again been awarded
an ecclesiastical hand slap. De-ploring
"the notion of a heresy
trial," the House of Bishops, at
its annual meeting, voted 103 to
36 to reject the incorrigible's ap-proach
toward theologizing.
Along with other noteworthy
accomplishments, the House this
year succeeded in the setting up
of a liquor commissary in a
heretofore barless city. Amen.
Polls
The President's popularity seems
to be growing: 86% indicate they
are in favor of his administra-tion's
present policy, as opposed to
the 76% who are against it. This
sudden rise in popularity is ob-viously
due to his both-guns-and-butter
economics.
WBCS
Features
Leonard Sammons, program man-ager
for radio station WBCS, an-nounced
today featured selections
for the coming week's listening:
These include:
Thurday, 7:00 p.m., the second
in a series of programs on Bethel
student organization, featuring the
Bethel Women's Choir;
Friday, 7:30 p.m., the first in a
weekly series of interviews with
student government leaders and at
9:30 p.m. musical selections by
Andy Williams.
Monday, 7:00 p.m., Student Tra-velogue,
the first in a series of
interviews with students from ex-otic
places; and
Tuesday, 8:00 p.m., "The Mar-riage
of Figaro," by Mozart.
you are either for or against the
Bible and prayer.
Hargis is apparently quite proud
that he has never been sued for
libel, judging from the fact that
this was mentioned seven times
during the meeting. (One of his
current __periodicals__ carries._ the
headline: "Could Robert F. Ken-nedy
Become An American Cas-tro?")
Hargis states: "If it is not true,
we do not say it." Then, by im-plication,
if he does say it, it
must be "true."
Dr. Hargis is forty years of age
and has attended Ozark Bible Col-lege
and Burton College and Sem-inary.
He was ordained at age
eighteen by the Disciples of Christ.
He received his title "Doctor" hon-►
orarily from the Defender Semin-ary
of Puerto Rico, Belin Memorial
University, and not surprisingly.
from Bob Jones University.
He has a gentle, boyish face and
a semi-relaxed style in his deliv-ery,
standing before his red, white,
and blue banner which reads in
part: "For Christ—Against Com-munism."
The audience of about 400 was,
in the great majority, elderly;
only a handful of young people
were present. They appreciated
his mentioning of George Wash-ington
and Barry Goldwater, but
booed at the names of Minnesota
DFL Senators. McCarthy and
Mondale.
The culmination of the meeting
was the second offering. This rally
was the last in a long itinerary to
generate local interest and funds
for his Crusade and his radio
broadcasts (locally on KXUL, 1570
KC, 7:45 a.m. daily).
Hargis stated that the immediate
needs were $1,900. After a prayer
the audience was continually ens
couraged to give: "A hundred dol-lars,
fifty, twenty, ten, five—what-ever
you can . . . if you want to
keep these truths on the air."
Then the offering was immed-iately
brought to the front for
counting. With amazing dexterity
Hargis personally computed the
amount: $600, far short of the
goal. After this twenty-five min-ute
offering we were dismissed
to the booktable. We were not
told if the broadcast would con-tinue
or not.
Hargis stated, "We are tied to
Christ . . . We are tied to a dream."
I believe the second part, but if
the Gospel was presented at this
meeting, it was not that of the
New Testament — it was Hargis'
own gospel, that of: " `christ,"con,
servatism,' free enterprise, the
constitution" — terms which were
continually linked by him, appar-ently
in an inseparable bond.
May God protect us from at-tempting
to chain Him to our own
particular socio-political view-points.

Misunderstood Editorial
Merits Reconsideration
Hark! I have been grossly musunderstood. In reply to
Nancy Appelquist's editorial in last week's CLARION criticizing
the editorial of October 27, I wish to clarify my original opinion ;
since it has been mistaken.
I begin with a basic statement as to what the editorial
was not conceived to be. It was not our conscious attempt to
stir up some "righteous" crusade belligerently and wantonly
demanding student power with all the crusade fervor, magic
marker, froth, and discontent that one can muster. Berkeley,
in short, is not our ideal, nor is it representative.
We were not pitching for student power just for the
sake of student power, nor were we demanding student power
at the expense of the traditional estates in the hierarchy of
higher education, i.e. faculty, administration, and the board
of education. We ask only that students be recognized in
equal worth with these estates, working with them and
sharing their burden of responsibility.
Now here is the catch—the burden of responsibility. If
students are to be recognized as a worthy, legitimate power
in governing the institution and formulating decisive policy
they must become responsible. Students across the United
States are realizing this fact. That is why they are taking
courses in student life and university problems. That is why
they read the educational literature and quote the current
reformers.
Agreed, academic institutions are for academics. That
is exactly what is happening in regard to the current attitude
toward student power. Students are learning the academics
of college and university government, structure, problems,
and concerns.
They are learning not at a superficial level merely to
storm and froth at the mouth. They are involved in a signifi-cant
academic task as they begin to realize the importance
of what they are involved in and the import that the in-stitution
will have in molding their lives.
This is the current trend that was mentioned in the edi-torial.
It is this trend that is attested to by the study that was
sighted conducted by two prominent Stanford University Psy-chologists,
Nevitt Sanford and Joseph Katz, appearing in the,
national educational magazine Phi Delta Kappan.
It is this current trend that Bethel lags far behind. Our.
students have not yet realized the contemporary responsibili-ties
that a twentieth century college experience demands of
them. They have little grasp of the complexity of the college,
and an equally small grasp of the relevant facts of power,
faculty concerns, curricular arrangements, and so forth. Their
analytic powers are not being sharpened. This is what is
meant by lagging behind the current trend.
In this light, I believe it is still imperative that we make
the statement that "with the administration and student body
cooperating, it is possible for our college generation (meaning
that at Bethel specifically) to remain in step with the current
trend."

by William D. Pardridge
Author of the book Economic Inequities
Money is the root of all economic evil.
Believe it.
It can easily be legislated into existence.
But real economic wealth, which all money represents, must be
earned the hard way — by working.
Yet people, especially politicians, think it okay to appropriate a
hundred million here and a billion dollars there "to pay for a worthy
project."
Just like that.
Money is simply a highly efficient, measurable system to distribute
the goods and services we produce with our factories, our hands and
our minds.
Things would be different in our economy if people, especially
grassroots folk, were to think in terms of governments appropriating
not so many dollars but appropriating so much of their goods and
services "to pay for that worthy project."
Instead of Congress passing a law authorizing the President to
spend sixty billion dollars for this, that or the other thing, have Con-gress
enact a law appropriating 9 per cent of the standard of living of
the worker.
That wouldn't sit so well back home — particularly where the retail
sales tax already takes three, four and five per cent of a worker's take
home pay.
Sure, the worker spends all his wages. Prices had to rise to make
the total amount of goods and services produced equal the total amount
of money put on the counter to buy those very goods and services.
If more and more workers are producing services — both needed
and not needed — and fewer and fewer workers are producing goods,
as is now the case, prices of goods must rise because there is more
money around to buy the smaller total amount of goods produced.
Increased industrial productivity merely slows down the process of
imbalance between goods produced and the artificially expanded con-sumer
money and credit available to buy those goods.
It does not necessarily make the two equal.
Uneconomic price rises brought about this way bring on general
inflation, because there is constantly more money and consumer credit
available to buy a diminishing amount of goods.
Per capita goods go down, and per capita money income goes up.
In such a situation — and we are in it today — prices have got to rise.
No amount of Big-Government regimentation can prevent this up-ward
snow-balling of more money buying fewer goods.
But Big-Government regimentation can order a freezing of wages
and prices.
Down this road lies the political ruin not of the bosses but of
the people.
And the sleepy cohesive Big-Business community also will have
had it.
That's for sure.
Important know-it-alls every day say, "We're rich enough to have
both the welfare state at home and enough guns and men overseas to
fight all of Asia."
In dollars and deficits, we are easily led to believe this.
But in terms of economic wealth — actual goods and services —
we can afford neither.
When the bloated gross national product is reduced to real per
capita income — which slippery economists won't do outside their own
smoke-filled rooms — then it becomes obvious that the American
economy is suffering from severe malnutrition.
Whoever says the United States today is rich enough to be a
perpetual Santa Claus at home and at the same time be a sheriff to
the rest of the world, is either a dilettante, a dreamer, or a plain fool.

Phelps defeated Asbury 19-0,
and the Seminary crushed Frank-son
26-0 in intramural playoff
games last Saturday. Phelps and
the Seminary will meet for the
championship this Saturday at Co,
mo Park.
Phelps scored early in the first
half when Don Lindberg returned
the opening kickoff to Asbury's
40 yard line, and then a few plays
later received a long pass from
quarterback Gary Pangburn for the
score.
Midway in the half Craig An-derson
picked up a bobbled punt
and raced 40 yards for another
Phelps score. Anderson also
caught the extra point to make
the score 13-0.
Phelps maintained its two touch-down
lead until late in the second
half when Bob Jackson received
a touchdown pass from Pangburn
to make the final score 19-0.
The Seminary exploded for 20
points in the first half, and was
never challenged by Frankson.
Seminary scores in the first half
came on passes from quarterback
Duane "Grape" Johnson to Dave
Kastelein on a 15 yard halfback
release, Bruce Ericson on a post-pattern,
and Dennis Port on a two
yard pass.
The two teams played tough
defensive ball in the second half
until Dennis Port once more
scored, this time on a long pass
in the final seconds of the game.
Both the Seminary and Phelps
will bring 5-0 records to the
championship game.
The Seminary has crushed As-bury
26-6, Second Old 28-0, First
Floor 45-0, Third New 1-0 by for-feit,
and Frankson 26-0 on its way
to the championship game, and
Phelps has beaten Frankson 20-0,
the Pit 21-0, Third Old 1-0 by for-feit,
Second Old 1-0 (forfeit), and
Asbury 19-0.
Besides having identical rec-ords,
the teams are similar in
other aspects. Both have very
tough defenses, outstanding of-fensive
players, and excellent

teamwork. As can be seen by the
scores, the Seminary has yield-ed
one touchdown to Asbury,
and Phelps none all year.
But the Asbury team Phelps
beat was considerably weaker than
the one the Seminary beat, since
Asbury had only seven players last
Saturday and was missing some
key personnel.
Nevertheless to go through a
season unscored upon is a diffi-cult
feat, and much credit should

It is Communist China that is
supplying the enemy in Vietnam
with guns, ammunition and
trained Chinese officers and men
which are used to kill young
Americans and Vietnamese. It
is Communist China that has
spread its web of subversion and
infiltration throughout all the

China that is the threat
to the independent nations of
Asia and the self-avowed enemy
of our own country as well.
"Since 1948, when Communists
seized power on the mainland,
there have been those in America
who advocated policies of appease-ment
to Communist China. During
the past two years, this advocacy
has turned into a well-financed and
well-publicized campaign. The Chi-nese
Communists are losing ground
everywhere in the world but in the
United States. It is here—in our
own country—that they seem to be
gaining!

November—a time of transition in Bethel sports. Football
season is over with the gridders dropping last Saturday's
finale for a frustrating 3-5 record. Cross country is in its
last stages. Only the AAU and NAIA District meets remain
for the Royals. The freshman and sophomore dominated squad
has shown a great deal of potential in an otherwise unspectacu-lar
year.
As the harriers and gridders pack away their gear until
next fall rolls around, wrestling and basketball move into the
limelight. The grapplers began practice October 31 for their
first match in early December, while the cagers have been
going at it even longer in preparation for their November
26 date with Jamestown. Hockey, on an "unofficial" basis again
this year, will also add excitement to the winter sports scene.
This seasonal transition barely qualifies as a shadow of
another transition which is taking place in Bethel athletics.
Perhaps this change is not readily apparent to the majority
of the student body. If so, it is only of it's slow, steady,
unobtrusive nature, not because of meager results.
The nature Of this change is essentially one of expanding
horizons in athletics at Bethel. This finds expression in numer-ous
areas. One of these is an upgrading of quality.
More and better athletes have come to Bethel over the
last few years; this is partially the result of expanding enroll-ment.
Resulting from this higher quality of performance has
been a trend to schedule tougher competition. This year's
basketball schedule is a good example of this.
Another area in which this transition has made its in-fluence
felt is a group of activities commonly referred to
as "minor" sports. Since 1960, cross country and wrestling
have been added to the sports curriculum. Tennis and golf,
languishing in a neglected state for years, are just on the
threshold of blossoming into maturity, and hockey is just
a step or two away from intercollegiate competition. On the
horizon are other sports like swimming, gymnastics, and even
soccer.
A culmination of this transition will have to wait until
the school is situated on the new campus where there will be
facilities available for all these sports. But one major mile-stone
will probably be reached before then—membership in
a conference. Conference affiliation and possession of ade-quate
facilities will give sports at Bethel two of the most
important factors in a college's athletic program.

Quarterback Englund is snowed under in Saturday's cold re-ception
by the Valley City Vikings. The Royals lost the game 21-14.
Page 4 the CLARION
by Dave Anderson
The loss of two Bethel regulars
from injuries sustained the pre-vious
week, coupled with the loss
of two more regulars at the outset
of the second half proved to be
too much to overcome as Bethel
was downed Saturday by the Valley
City Vikings. The score was 21-14.
As the Royals took the field last
Saturday, missing from the normal
lineup were Ron Harris and co-captain
John Carmean. However,
as the game started it looked as
if the Bethelites could overcome
this handicap.
Following the opening kickoff,
the Jim-Brand-led-defense held
the North Dakotans and forced
a punting situation. However, the
punt never materialized as the
snap from center zoomed over
the Valley City punter's head
and he was engulfed by white-clad
Royals as he retrieved the
ball on his own five yard line.
From here the Lion express
looked like it might run away.
After several futile line plunges,
QB Bill Englund hit senior flanker
Bob MacDonald for a touchdown.
On the point-after attempt, Bethel
was caught holding, but Larry Pet-erson
remained on mark from fif-teen
yards farther away and the
score stood 7-0.
Both teams then stiffened on
defense, neither showing much of
an offense. Then, midway in the
second quarter, a muffled snap
from center by Bethel gave the
ball to Valley City on the Royals'
25 yard line.
From here the Vikings march-ed
into pay dirt with the tally
coming on a two yard off-tackle
play. The PAT was good and the
score stood at half time—Bethel
7, Valley City 7.
Starting the second half, Lady
Luck turned away from the Royals.
First Al Selander was "knocked
cold" while attempting the 41-
flicker that he has run so well
all year. No sooner had they car-ried
"Se" off the field than a short
punt gave Valley City the ball and
excellent field position.
Starting from their own 45 yard
line the Vikings pushed the ball
55 yards to score the touchdown

Last Saturday at Como Park, the
Bethel harriers participated in
their toughest meet of the 196§
season. Competing in a double duo
meet against LaCrosse and Manka-to
State, the Royals absorbed a
thorough trouncing.
Both LaCrosse and Mankato
State finished third in its con-ference
this year. Also, each is
sending members of its strong
team to compete in the Nationals.
This is reason enough for the
Royals' poor showing.
Saturday's meet was filled with
highlights. Seven men covered
the 3.8 mile distance in less than
nineteen minutes. One man ran
it in less than eighteen minutes.
Out of these seven top finishers,
three broke the old Como Park
course record of 18:38.
Ray Wood of Mankato State now
holds the new record for Como
Park's cross country course. He
finished with an unbelieveable
time of 17:54, which is roughly
Thursday, November 10, 1966
that put them in the lead to stay.
It was on this drive that the sec-ond
stroke of bad luck hit the
Royals, as Dave Norman, a fix-ture
at defensive end, had to be
removed from further action.
After taking the kickoff, the
Royal's offense was stymied as
Fred Swedberg was again called
upon to punt. This time the snap
was bad and "Swede," who had
been rushed unmercifully all
day, had no chance to get the
boot off.
Thus, the Vikings again had ex-cellent
field position. Starting
from Bethel's 30 yard mark, the
Valley Citians persistently hit the
line until a three yard off-tackle
play brought them their third
touchdown.
With the kick for point good,
the Royals received, trailing 21-7.
The boys from Bethel weren't
ready to give up, however. As the
gun sounded to end the third quar-ter,
the Royals' offense started to
warm up.
Englund and his charges start-ed
to click. With the help of
some fine catches by Larry and
four 4:30 miles! His teammate, Jim
Flim, was not far behind. He took
second with a time of 18:11.
The other breaker of Como's
previous course record was Paul
Dale of LaCrosse. His time of 18:29
gave him third place in the meet.
The other four men to break
nineteen minutes were Bob Han-dahl
at 18:42 for Mankato, La-
Crosse's Rod Leadley with 18:50,
Alec Murray of Mankato with a
time of 18:56, and Smith of La-
Crosse at 18:57.
Bethel had two men who ran
the course in less than twenty
minutes. Steve Johnson finished
first for the Royals with a time of
19:45. This gave him eleventh place
in the meet. Tom Hu1st followed
him in at 19:58 for a twelfth
place finish.
The other Bethel participants
were Rich Swanson, Dave Moul-ton,
Steve Roe, Dave Haring, and
Ken Minnis. Of these five Royals,
Rich took thirteenth with a time
of 20:09, Moulton took fifteenth
Craig Peterson and the bull-like
plunges of Lee Pearson, the
Royals moved to scoring terri-tory.
They were stopped short
of pay dirt, however.
Then the defense held back the
red-shirted North Dakotans, and
again gave the Royal offense good
position. However, the Lions could
only come close to their prey, and
gave up the ball without scoring.
The final tally, a one yard plunge
by Pearson, came on the last play
of the game. Larry Peterson kick-ed
the point and the score read:
Valley City 21, Bethel 14.
Although their final record
stood 3-5, the Royals deserved
better fate. Not once did they
give up all year. The final quar-ter
at Valley City was typical of
all but one of the five losses;
that is, the Royals got behind,
then came on strong, but not
soon enough for victory.
The game Saturday marked the
end of football for the following
seniors: Orlyn Lundborg, Dave
Norman, Jim Brand, Bob MacDon-ald,
Dick Olson, Bob Olson, and
Bob Sundquist.
with a 20:14 time, and Steve came
in seventeenth with 21:00.
If the meet had been a tri-angular
one, Mankato State
would have come out on top
with 27, followed by LaCrosse
with 32, and finally Bethel with
68. However, Mankato and La-
Crosse were not competing a-gainst
each other.
So officially, Bethel lost to Man-kato
State by a score of 18-38,
and to LaCrosse of Wisconsin by
a score of 15-45. Next week, Nov-ember
12, the Royal harriers will
be competing in the Minnesota
AAU Championship beginning at
11:00 a.m.
