Sno-Daze `Winterlude' To Descend;
Weekend of Gay Festivities in Store
Helicopters and machineguns characterize the bitter struggle
that is Viet Nam
Under the theme, "Winterlude,"
Bethel's annual winter frolic, Sno-
Daze, descends upon the student
body Friday and Saturday, Febru-ary
11 and 12.
Meeting Thursday, the freshman
and sophomore classes made the
initial selection of three queen
candidates to represent each of
their classes. Wednesday, January
19, three semi-finalists will be
chosen from these candidates in
voting by the entire student body.
Those candidates chosen thus
far are freshmen, Jan Young-quist,
Barb Smith, JoAnne Bur-geson,
and sophomores Bev
Brown, Sharon Jones and Jeannie
Anderson.
Following a somewhat altered
pattern than that of previous
years, the banquet will initiate the
weekend. It will be held at Becky's
Buffet Chalet, a Smorgasbord near
"Miracle Mile," Minneapolis.
Punch and light appetizers will
be served from 8:00 until 8:30 at
which time the formal events of
the evening get underway.
The Women's Choir begins its
sweep through six midwestern
states Thursday, January 27.
The 15 concert car and bus
itinerary includes engagements in
Chicago, Duluth, and Omaha as
well as smaller towns.
Although most of the concerts
are in churches, they also will
perform at a large Youth For
Christ rally in Duluth and in
several high schools.
Chicago will be a high point for
most of the women. A day has
been set aside for sightseeing, and
tentatively they will take a guided
tour through the city.
Their program opens with "Holy,
Holy, Holy" which is intended to
set the mood for the entire per-formance.
The selections are large-ly
praise following the theme "Sing
Unto the Lord a New Song."
Part One concentrates on the
Following the banquet portion
of the evening, entertainment
will be provided by a string trio

Bethel Sno-Daze Queen for 1965
will be formally recognized with
her court in an impressive crown-ing
ceremony.
Saturday's activities will be
sparked by an evening basket-ball
game, pitting Bethel's Roy-als
against a strong five from
St. Paul Bible College.
Following the basketball game,
again the traditional hootenanny in
the college auditorium provides op-portunity
not only for the fellow-ship
of song, but also for the proud
display of virility worn by many
Bethel men in preparation for Sno-
Daze—the judging of the annual
greatness and glory of God in
such pieces as "Salvation Belong-eth
to Our God," "The God of
Abraham Praise," and "How Ex-cellent
Thy Name."
The second section of the pro-gram
expounds the "Great Truths
of Our Faith." From Brahms "Re-quiem,"
the choir has selected
"How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling

Plans for Sno-Daze are being
completed under the direction of
Peter Porter, sophomore class pres-ident,
and last year's queen, Dar-lene

Daze committee.
Incidentally, dress for Friday
night's revelling will be semi-formal
with dark suits for the
boys, and either cocktail dresses
or hostess skirts for the girls.
Cost for the entire weekend will
be about $6.00.
"Viet Nam Profile", World Vis-ion's
80-minute film showing God
working despite the war, will be
seen in Bethel Fieldhouse on Sun-day,
January 23, at 3 and 9 o'clock
p.m. 1500 free seats are available
for each showing.
Bob Pierce, president of World

Freshman Class President Warren
Hugh Withrow, is followed as he
visits American troops in Viet Cong
territory.
Major Warren Harding Withrow
was graduated from Bethel Col-lege
in 1951 and from Bethel
Seminary in 1953, and has been
a chaplain in the United States
Army for eight years.
Withrow served ten months reg-ular
duty in Viet Nam from Sept-ember,
1964, to July, 1965, working
with natives as well as G.I.'s. He
is currently attending chaplain

for additional training.
Withrow's family stayed in St.

SPAN Announces Areas
ForStudentStudy in 1967
The Minnesota SPAN Association (Student Project for
Amity among Nations) announces selection of countries to be
visited during the summer of 1967. Students will travel with
faculty advisers to Czechoslovakia, Israel, Uganda and Vene-zuela.
Application forms due March 1, as well as detailed informa-tion
are available from Dr. James E. Johnson of the history
department. Dr. Johnson succeeds Dr. Walfred Peterson this
year as campus SPAN advisor.
To be eligible, a student must have had at least one year of college
with approximately a "B" average or better. It is necessary for one
applying to Venezuela to have a background in Spanish.
Four groups of approximately fifteen each are chosen to go abroad.
They are picked after a series of tests and committee screenings. The
committee is made up of SPAN advisors and other officials from the
cooperating schools.
The students who are chosen will take part in an orientation program
during the academic year 1966-1967. During the summer in the SPAN
country, they will carry out an independent study project in an area of
their own interest.
Twelve academic credits (eight semester credits) will be granted
after completion of the program in Foreign Study 161-162. The students
are required to be in residence at their college or another SPAN college
during the two years of participation in the SPAN program.
SPAN further announces the reception of a grant from the Hill
Family Foundation. The grant of $36,000 provides the base of a revolving
SPAN Scholarship Fund and insures scholarship aid for the students
selected for the 1967 SPAN program.

Retiring Editor Re-Affirms
College Publication Policy
In many schools student publications work under close
supervision. The newspaper editor and his staff receive appoint-ments
,to their positions because they safely adhere to the
official position of the school.
Then this hand-picked staff publishes only opinions that
are "safe" to print because they agree with the position of the
school. And just to make sure that the staff does not accidentally
experiment with something that will show the position of the
school in a bad light, the newspaper adviser acts as censor.
But this is not the situation at Bethel. Here the CLARION
staff has experienced the freedom to exercise judgment and
responsibility, to learn by experimentation and error. The
CLARION has been free to print opinions that the school can-not
support in order to give students a broad representation
of opinions.
For this freedom and the accompanying responsibility, a
retiring CLARION editor is grateful and hopeful that Bethel
will always have a policy of freedom for its student publications.
Leaders Need Aid, Credit
Two final thoughts. First, the type of freedom mentioned
above is best preserved within the unique structure of an aca-demic
community. Off-campus subscriptions should probably
be minimized or eliminated. Certain types of questions and
issues may only be brought into public dialogue when that pub-lic
is defined as the campus community.
Secondly, the College ought to seriously consider giving
systematic financial support to its leaders in student govern-ment
and publications. These roles now require more "free
time" than the conscientious student is able to devote.
Another partial answer to the same basic problem of
creating a more equitable division of labor would be to give
or expand academic credit to those whose work in co-curricular
activities is largely academic, such as debators, dramatists, and
those on editorial staffs of publications.

Students Join Wycliffe Translators,
Anticipate Experience in Preparation
by Mae Toedter
While students here at Bethel study, do research
projects, write papers and take exams, unusual ex-citement,
tests and pressures await others.
Martha Gemmel, a senior anthropology major who
will finish her course work at Bethel this semester
and Virginia A. Larson, a 1965 graduate of Bethel who
majored in Christianity, leave soon for jjungle training
under Wycliffe Bible Translators.
For three months the two girls, along with
other prospective missionaries, will be away from
modern civilization learning to survive under rug-ged,
primitive conditions.
Because much of Wycliffe's work is done in primi-tive
tribes, jungle camp is prerequisite to missionary
service.
After a brief orientation period in Mexico City,
the girls travel to the main base of jungle camp which
is accessible only by plane. The personal belongings of
each girl must be packed in one duffle bag and can-not
exceed eighty-five pounds.
Some of the essential items, not ordinarily car-ried
by a Bethel co-ed, are a pair of high top tennis
shoes (because they stay on better in mud and
water), flea powder, a hunting knife and a pair of
cotton work gloves.
Cut off from modern conveniences, the campers
12ow-Readell 7,4e(te
learn such practical things as finding their way in the
jungle with only a compass, cutting down trees with
a machete, shooting rapids in a canoe and cooking
over an open fire.
Although most of their food comes from the
"bodega" (storehouse), each has to kill, clean and
cook a chicken and also help butcher a cow. The
techniques of translation which the girls learned will
be applied also. They will work with the Tzeltlal In-dians
of the area near base.
In advanced training Martha and Virginia will
build their own but and furniture from poles, vines
and thatch. The materials for their kitchen range
come in a find-it-yourself, do-it-yourself kit: mud
and sticks. Periodically the trainees meet as a
group for fellowship and sharing.
For both girls joining Wycliffe came through
a gradual process. Their initial interest in missions
was the result of the influence of their churches and
Christian homes.
"For a long time I knew I wanted to go into
missions, but I didn't say anything definite because I
was afraid it would backfire," Martha stated. "I wasn't
really sure until this summer after I went to SIL."
SIL is the Summer Institute of Linguistics, an-other
part of training for translation work under
Wycliffe. "I am really excited about going to jungle
camp," she added.
Virginia's plans became definite
a few years ago when Dr. Kenneth
Pike, president of SIL, spoke here
at Bethel on translation work.
"I had been thinking of mission-ary
work, but I didn't know what I
could do. I'd always been interested
in literature, and when I heard
about translation work I felt it was
something I could do."
Martha and Virginia feel that
the influence of both students
and faculty members here at
Bethel have been of help to
them. Also, their work in World
Missions Fellowship has added
greatly to their continued inter-est
in missionary work.
Following their training in the
jungle, Martha and Virginia will
again be plunged into a world of
bath tubs, ringing phones and auto-mobiles
for a time.
Virginia will take her place in
the emergency ward of Midway
Hospital. Martha will don the black
academic garb for Bethel com-mencement
exercises.
(ACP)—(The following col-umn
was written by Thom
Fraser in the DAILY TAR
HEEL, University of North Car-olina,
Chapel Hill.)
University of California research-ers
at Berkeley recently told their
professional colleagues that cam-pus
protest leaders are "the nu-cleus
of future scholarship."
What is not known, however, is
Berkeley's new graduate school ad-mission
policy. To get the inside
dope, I interviewed Koob Edgel-wonk,
who, although he graduated
from the University of North Car-olina
with a 4.00 and an impressive
record in student government, was
turned down at Berkeley. He
wanted to work for a Ph.D. in
nuclear physics there.
"You look extremely quali-fied,"
the admissions officer
said, "yet you have a 4.00 aver-age
without ever having be-longed
to the Free Speech Move-ment."
"Yes, sir," answered Koob very
respectfully.
"Well, I'm sorry," the official
replied, "but we cannot accept you
because you haven't engaged in
creative protest. I'm sure you see
our side of the story; the statistics
show campus activists rank higher
on the intellectual orientation
scale."
"Maybe," Koob suggested, "I
could develop myself intellectu-ally
once I got to Berkeley, per-haps
stop a few troop trains or
threaten to become a human
torch."
"We're sorry," the admissions
officer said, "but we must rely on
past deeds, not just on ability.
Judging from your record, I would
say you lack the motivation one
needs to succeed at Berkeley."
Six months later, Koob revisited
Berkeley after changing his identi-ty.
He wore dark glasses, a dirty
T-shirt, and sandals. What's more,
he did not hesitate before accept-ing
the marijuana cigarette offered
him by the interviewer.
Koob casually remarked that
he had barely managed to grad-uate
from UNC, that he had been
suspended from school several
times at the request of the gov-ernor,
and that he used LSD
(a hallucinatory drug).
"I'm very impressed," said the
admissions officer. "Seems to me
you're just the type of fellow
who'll fit into our local Free
Speech Movement, although the ex-perts
say the FSM people are not
beatniks."
"Sure thing, old man," Koob re-plied.
"Me — I go places. Just
ordinary stuff — picketing the
university administration, working
to legalize pot, vandalizing military
monuments."
Two weeks later he received a
letter from Berkeley "Dear Mr.
Egdelwonk," it read. We have
been checking and have found
that you have never been dis-ciplined
by the school as you
said you were, and furthermore,
that Chief Beaumont has never
arrested you for smoking mari-juana.
We find you to be an in-tellectual
fraud."
Depressed, Koob ran out into the
middle of Franklin St. and began
screaming obscenities at the top of
his lungs. When the authorities

Senate Cynic:
Student Senate Anemic
From Controversy Lack
by Bernard Johnson
A post vacation slump plagued Senate Monday night in spite of ef-forts
on the part of many students to voice controversial issues.
Actually, the most stimulating part of the evening was Jonelle Olson's
treasurer's report. That stand's to reason, doesn't it?
Legislative action included a ban on double parking on Arona
Sunday mornings should you be driving a bus. In addition, a rather
inconsequential change in the standing rules of order was made.
Also, mention was made of the fact that it would be improvident for
anyone to become deathly ill or be faced with an emergency between
9:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Sundays. It seems there is no telephone operator
on duty at that time.
Calling into the school could be very frustrating when all you'd get
is Betty's Answering Service. The rationale behind this policy is some-what
of a mystery.
Perhaps it is an effort by those in "comptrol" to save money; after
all, we've heard enough about economy this year. Then again, maybe
all available telephone operators are in church at that time. It may be
a small issue, but there should be some consistency in service.
With the presence of newly elected Freshman and Sophomore repre-sentatives,
the conversation was naturally turned toward elections of next
year's officers which is reasonably close at hand.
As opposed to years past, there do not seem to be any "shoe-in"
candidates for top offices this year. I would imagine names like Linden
and Dow will be prominent, but that leaves a host of other offices wide
open for political hopefuls and would-be opportunists.
At any rate, it would appear that this year's sophomore class has
an especially fertile area for infiltration of the legislative life at Bethel.
If Senate lives another year, it will be the Sophomores who nourish it
back to health.
Senate, as usual, adjourned with various and sundry comments rang-ing
from Mike Rynkiewich's plea for blood donors to the usual undercur-rent
of comments concerning lack of important issues in Senate. If any-one
needs a transfusion, it's Senate.
After many hours of preparation,
the selection committee has an-nounced
the final appointments for
the 1966 Student Missionary Pro-ject.

Vespers Fulfill
Spiritual Need
by Don Root
The idea of a Sunday evening
service on campus was greeted with
enthusiasm by not only the admin-istration,
faculty, and student sen-ate,
but also by many students.
I find it necessary to review the
reasons for such a service. Why
do we find it such a necessity? Is
it because "some students" are too
lazy to look for transportation? Is
it because students cannot justify
spending so much time seeking
"godly pleasure"?
Do we want to drag the student
and the sleeper from their books
and beds? Why don't you go to a
local church on Sunday evenings?
Is it because your local church
does not meet your particular
need? Have you ever given it a
try? Have you ever admitted that
you have a need?
These are the reasons given by
our Religious Committee chairman
in the last edition of the Clarion.
Perhaps he was a little more gen-tle
but is there really any differ-ence?
Do not these questions re-veal
the real character of the need
we have at Bethel.
A program is desired for Sunday
evening that will help meet these
needs. Ideas are wanted; the ideas
of you who live with your own
needs. Rome was not built by good
thoughts alone. Prove your enthus-iasm,
student!
As a sophomore from Amana,
Iowa, Cindy is

Since she plans

career, Cin-dy

Dr. D. Elton Trueblood, reknown-ed
theologian, author and philoso-pher,
will be Bethel College's
guest convocation speaker Tuesday,
January 18. Trueblood is currently
the professor of philosophy at Earl-ham
College in Richmond, Indiana,
and a founder of its recently
established School of Religion.
Dr. Trueblood will speak in the
Bethel Fieldhouse at the regular
9:45 chapel session on the eight-eenth,
and will also speak at an
afternoon session at Bethel Semi-nary
the same afternoon. The sub-ject
of his message will be "The
Achievement of Integrity."
Dr. Trueblood is the author of
some 22 books, the latest being:
PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION;
THE YOKE OF CHRIST; THE
IDEA OF COLLEGE; CON-FRONTING
CHRIST; and THE
COMPANY OF THE COMMIT-TED.
He has earned his A.B.
degree from Penn College, his
S.T.B. from Harvard University,
and his Ph.D. from the Johns
Hopkins University.
He has been awarded no fewer
than nine honorary degrees, and
in 1952 received the "Outstanding
Christian Service Award" from the
Church Federation of Greater Chi-cago.
In 1960 he was also awarded
the "Churchman of the Year A-ward"
from the Washington Pil-grimmage.
D. Elton Trueblood was born of
Quaker parents in Pleasantville,
Iowa, in 1900. He attended both
high school and college in Iowa,
and graduated from Indianola High
School in 1917.
Immediately following his grad-uation,
he entered William Penn
College, completed this phase
of his education, and received
his B.A. degree in 1922.
In 1922 he went to New England
and studied for a year at Brown
University in Rhode Island and
for a year at the Hartford Theo-logical
Seminary in Connecticut.
He then proceeded to enroll at
the Harvard School of Theology,
where he was awarded his Bachelor
of Sacred Theology degree in 1926.
Mr. Trueblood worked for his
doctorate in philosophy at Johns

A report from one of the Eastern European countries recently re-vealed
that Western blue jeans are tremendously popular with Russian
youths.
Officials have tried to prevent the jeans from entering the country,
but many youths have been willing to risk imprisonment in order to
smuggle the jeans into their villages.
In the small Russian village of Baetholgrad, blue jeans were first
smuggled in by several, unkempt wineos that lived near the coal yards.
The town council immediately condemned such dress, and both men
were exiled to Verkhoyansk in the heart of Siberia.
The Orthodox bishop was so upset over the incident that he in-formed
the Patriarch in Moscow, causing tremors even in that distant
city.
Yet the insidious influence had gained an entrance, and before the
year was over, even some of the nice boys in the town had a pair of blue
jeans.
It should be noted at this point that several different styles of blue
jeans were available. The cheaper models came from Eastern European
countries. They were of low quality material and shamefully tight. The
more expensive jeans came from Penny's.
It was understandable that the civic leaders would react to the
cheap, tight jeans of the rebel set. However their blanket objection
ignored the differences in the styles, and, consequently, many of the
nicer youths had no guidance when social pressures finally pushed
them into obtaining a pair.
Within five or six years of their introduction, some parents began
to see the practicality of the jeans. Though they maintained their nega-tive
opinion in public, their little Ivan and Tasha were soon running
around the house in the practical Western pants.
Before long all the village young people were wearing jeans. How-ever,
they were still worn mainly at night, around the house, or where
teenagers gathered. Though the older generation knew that all the
youths wore jeans, it was considered tactless to discuss the situation
except with very close friends.
One sad day, over twenty years after the first blue jeans had made
their appearance, a very tragic incident took place. As the service be-gan
in the huge Orthodox church at the center of town, the young
minister approached the altar—IN BLUE JEANS.
Scandal! The ancient veil was torn asunder. The emotions of twenty
years of hypocrisy erupted. Youths cheered. The elders gasped—then
rushed resolutely at the infidel. A riot broke out: youth against elder,
father against son.
Time produced a healing, and today the residents of Neobaetholgrad
and the old people in the original city look with equal regret on that
tragic day. The old people know that it was inevitable, but still complain
that the young man should have been more charitable to the opinions of
the older generation.
The Neobaetholgradite simply states that he didn't see the conse-quences
of his actions. From the time he was a small boy he had worn
jeans. All the elders knew that he wore jeans. He just didn't realize what
would happen when he acknowledged—publicly—what everyone accepted
privately.

Skiing! "It's the greatest sport
there is!" according to Miss Mari-lyn
Starr, director of Bethel's ski
program and organizer of the an-nual
ski trip.
The semester break seems an
ideal time for a change of pace,
and Sunday, January 30, ski en-thusiasts
will leave for Sugar Hills
Ski Resort in Grand Rapids, Minne-sota.
They will ski Monday, Tues-day
and Wednesday for only $32
which covers the entire cost of the
outing.
Miss Starr's class has been meet-ing
Tuesday nights since Decem-ber
to exercise in preparation
for actual skiing. She explained
the purpose of the conditioning
is for flexibility, balance, and
strengthening of the leg muscles.
Saturdays they pack their equip-ment
and head for the slopes. Last

SPAN began in the years follow-ing
World War II in an attempt
to foster friendship and under-standing

first time.
The 28 students in the class auto-matically
go on the holiday. The
fee is included in the estimated
$40-$60 spent for the class through-out
the semester. Usually the week-end
jaunts cost approximately $5.
The Sugar Hills area boasts
a ski circus patterned after those
famous areas in Europe. Three
ridges and 23 trails present a
terrific freedom to the experi-enced
skier. Because of elaborate
snow making and grooming e-quipment
plus extensive night
lighting, conditions are always
ideal.
The lodge on the glacier-formed
hills offers better facilities than
areas previously visited. In addi-tion
to the comfortable rooms, each
of which has a view of the wooded
slopes, the other activities offered
make the after ski hours as ex-citing
as the time on the hills.
There is an indoor swimming pool
and a sauna, or Finnish steambath,
to revive bruised or tired bodies.
Miss Starr encourages those who
have not already signed up to do
so in her office before Wednesday,
January 19. Folders of the lodge
offer additional information about
Sugar Hills.

Bethel Baohstoile
by Linda Carol Olson
With as little announcement and
pre-arrangement as is necessary
for a weekend jaunt to Chicago,
Bethel junior Paul Goodman flies
today for an "A-go-go-" weekend
in Paris, France.
Learning only last Friday that
a passport was available for the
"Paris-A-Go-Go" tour, Paul hastily
bought it and today is on his way
to that famous city.
This gadabout Californian, who
sees his trip as a "fortunate,
quick, opportunity to begin to
see the world," is a ticket agent
with Northwest Orient Airlines
and consequently is able to travel
at greatly reduced costs.
Travelling has become the thing
to do," says Paul, "especially for
undergraduates, and those who
have travelled have gained far
greater insight into world condi-tions
and problems than one can
gain from reading."
"Bethel's college community ben-efits
from the travel experiences
of its students. It becomes more
internationally aware as it expands
beyond this square block."
Paul feels that Christians, es-pecially,
should be travelling
more and more these days. "How
can we project Christian love
unless we actually meet these
people of other cultures? We ex-pect
Christianity to go places
through second-rate means, but
if we really want it to progress
we have to meet people face-to-face."
For this specific reason, Paul
plans to travel alone in Paris this
weekend. "If I go with someone
else, we will tend to isolate our-selves
and meet no one." If he can
recall any of his two years of
French, he should not fare too
badly.
Spending only about 48 hours in
the city means that Paul will have
to keep "a-go-ing" in order to see
all he hopes to see. The Louvre,
the Champs-Elysees, the Latin
Quarter, and the cathedrals top
his list of "musts!"
Paul credits his upbringing in
California "where life is much
faster," for his always venturesome
spirit. "I guess I have been Amer-icanized
to the ideal of the 'jet-set'
although it is not possible
for me financially. I naturally
strive to get as far as I can as
quickly as I can."
Bethel Debates
At Illinois State
cont'd from page one
investigation and prosecution of
organized crime.
No team at the tournament had
a 6-0 score. Tim and Sharon were
one of the few teams to have a
5-1 score. Paul and Kathy scored
2-4. Debate trips are interesting
for several reasons, one of which
is the challenge of critical thinking
and mental competition.
Another reason is that debaters
are usually a friendly and polite
group, once the debate is finish-ed.
The Kansas University teams
are offering tough competition
across the nation; Bethel students
found them to be open, friendly,
humorous, and stimulating con-versationalists.
At the close of the Saturday ban-quet,
the awards were presented.
The friendly Kansas University
team placed first or superior in
three different speech areas. Such
friendships are not only exciting
but also challenging.

Wednesday evening the Center Opera Association in cooperation
with the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre and Walker Art Center presented its
first opera of the 1966 season. Mozart's The Abduction From The Seraglio,
is a seldom performed work that reflects vividly the classical style.
The vocal demands of the composition are such that musicians are
prone to hesitate before attempting to tackle it. Contrary to thoughts ,
of hesitation and reluctance, this performance easily filled the roles and
their demands with ease.

This program for 1965-66 has corporations, as an indication of
several distinct advantages over alumni interest.
Basically the plot concerns the experiences of a young Spanish
nobleman Belmonte who was separated from his sweetheart Constanze
when their ship was captured by pirates in the area of Turkey. Al-though
Belmonte manages to escape, Constanze and her two servants
are captured and sold as slaves to the Pasha Selim.
Pedrillo, the former valet, is made a gardener and Blonde, the
former maid, given to Osmin, the Pasha's overseer. The Pasha has
fallen in love with Constanze and wants her to love him. She refuses
and through a series of circumstances finds out that her lover is in the
area and wanting to see and free her.
She is forced to admit her lack of feeling for the Pasha, and he
attempts torture, but his great love reigns over his, and he allows her
more time to learn to love him. Belmonte finds a way to be put into
the employ of the Pasha and then plots escape.
In the process of fleeing, Osmin discovers the escape plot and
brings the four escapees before the Pasha. He in rage promises they
will be dealt with as in a Christian country and promises torturing
and execution.
Changing his mind, the Pasha returns and sets the four free. Osmin
shrieks in rage, but a chorus heralds the enlightened ruler with praise.
Carole Stuart as Constanze and Vern Sutton as Pedrillo are old
standbys in the Centre Opera who always give excellent performances.
Stuart as Constanze is playing perhaps her most difficult role but per-forms
with excellent style and shows beauty and flowing grace with
her Mozart arias.
Sutton as usual turned in an exceptional job acting as well as
singing the funny, scheming Pedrillo. Sutton received national ac-claim
two years ago with the Centre Opera production of "Albert
Herring" playing the title role.
The rest of the cast, backed up by an interestingly orchestrated score
and good orchestra, made the evening extremely worthwhile. Thomas
Nee directed the orchestra while Richard Zgodava, well known Twin City
musician, was the director of vocal preparation.
Interested students may attend at a reduced student's rate obtain-able
at the Guthrie box office for the three other performance of The
Abduction, January 15, 20, and 22.
"Evangelism Through Drama" is
the title for a series of three

actors at the Elk River Baptist
Church, January 20-22.
It will include "Conquest in Bur-ma,"

No!", the new play "The
Church Militant," and three para-ble

A group of Bethel alumni have
begun a program to stimulate alum-ni
giving in fiscal 1965-66.
Bethel alumni number around
5000. Out of the 4700 that were
solicited for funds during fiscal
1964-65, only thirteen percent re-sponded.
The national average of alumni
response for colleges and uni-versities
is twenty-three per cent.
The goal of this program is to
raise the alumni reponse ten
percentage points, up to the na-tional
average.
This group of alumni, about thir-ty
couples, have given Bethel a
conditional gift of over $5000. The
condition is that the percentage
of alumni giving be increased to
the twenty-three per cent goal.
Their $5000 gift will be pro-rated
over each percentage point gained.
The first contact with the alumni
will be a personal one. Volunteers
from the alumni association will
personally telephone or visit each
Bethel alumnus in various geo-graphic
areas. This first step will
last from January through Febru-ary.
The second approach, to be used
in March, will be the contacting
of alumni in the mail through
their graduating class organiza-tions.
In April there will be a third
solicitation. It will be a general

Basketball—What is it? Is it a game, a sport, a business, or a pleasur-able
past-time. Actually it is all of these and more.
It is a game with really only two fundamentals: 1.You throw the ball
through the basket and score, and 2. keep your opponent from scoring
more than you. This sounds simple, but there is a lot more to the game
than that. It is a game which matches man against man in a test of quick-ness,
mobility, skill and, yes, even a little cunning.
We tell our players that a good ballplayer is also a good thinker.
He is always aware of what is happening around him and responds to
it in an appropriate manner.
Most ball players continue playing on a team after high school be-cause
they truly enjoy the game. To most of our players it is a source
of true self-satisfaction and real enjoyment as well as a source for physi-cal
and emotional release.
Fans can also use this as a source for the release of pent-up feeling.
Sometimes the release is almost too vehement and fans become some-thing
more than the fans in the stands.
Basketball is also a very pleasurable pastime for many. Every day
from morning until night when classes are not in session you may stop
by and count and probably find someone shooting a basketball. Whether
he's an old pro or just a green amateur he enjoys it.
He may stop just long enough to shoot only one or two shots. Or he
may get in a pick up game and stay for the better part of an hour or more.
Whichever it is, basketball has given him a chance to have fun with his
friends.
Basketball is increasingly a business. This is, of course, especially
true of most of the professional teams, but it is increasingly true of
larger colleges and universities. The object of the game is to make money,
to get the good ball players to draw more people to make more money.
Scholarships are good when properly used, but they can also take the fun
and sport out of the game if improperly used.
Witnessing is the final dimension of basketball at Bethel. The ex-ample
set on and off the court play a part here. The attitude in winning
and losing is also to be considered. What about the new people players
meet in competition?
In homes that are visited on these trips a real witnessing opportunity
presents itself. On the court the reactions to tense plays and officials'
calls all play a part. They say "nice guys finish last", but we like to
think its better to "witness by winning".

The Bethel Royals evened their
season record at five wins and five
losses with a 112-75 win over
Northland.
The Royals were doing so well
that Coach Healy was able to use
all his reserves, and they did well,
increasing the lead by ten points.
Bethel's 49.5% from the floor
was not too much better than
Northland's 45.8%, but the dif-ference
came in the rebounding.
Bethel took 65 rebounds to North-land's
27. Ron Pederson and Tom
Hagen controlled the backboards
with 13 rebounds apiece.
Bethel, scoring first, never lost
the lead and after two minutes of
play never let Northland come
within five points. Midway through
the first half, Bethel's lead was 18
points, and the Coach's halftime
pep talk came with a 24 point lead.

whistle blew.
Co-captain Jerry Moulton led in
the scoring department with 18
points. Four Royals were in double
figures while all but one of the 14
who played, scored.
The game was rather rough as
shown by the foul record. Fifty
fouls were committed in the game,
27 by Bethel and 23 by Northland.
That total is rather high, but in a
fast moving game, this can be ex-pected.
The Royals' basketball team
has shown that it is not as bad
as the records show. Games have
been lost that were very close.

Last Saturday night Bethel's
grapplers met an undermanned and
inexperienced Northland squad of
eight men. The Bethel men made
short work of their prey by down-ing
Northland's eight, 36-6.
The scoring went like this: Bob
Baffa won by forfeit; Denny Ny-holm
pinned his man in the 130
pound class; Ron Harris duplicated
Nyholm's feat in the second period
of his match; Mike Warring pinned
his man in the first period of the
145 pound match.
Don Wilson won by decision to
make the score 23-0. In the 160
pound class, Bruce Hawkenson,
wrestling his first match, lost a
closely decisioned contest; Paul An-derson
showed his 167 pound op-ponent
that Bethel's fieldhouse has
more than 10 lights hanging from
its ceiling; and Warren Johnson
won by forfeit.
Bethel went to Macalester Col-lege
on Tuesday, February 11, to
take on Mac's mighty 10. This was
Bethel's best and most evenly
matched competition thus far.
Baffa went another nine minute
match, which is unusual this early
in the season, but lost 2-1 on 11
second riding time.
Nyholm made short work of his
130 pound opponent by pinning
him in the first period. Harris
looked great against the best guil-lotine
artist in the M.I.A.C., but
succumbed to the hold late in the
third period.
Mike, looking as good as ever,
lost by a close riding time decision
3-2 to make the score 11-5 in favor
of "Mac." Dan Wilson and his 152
pound opponent wrestled to a 44
tie which gave each team 2 points.
Wrestling for the first time this
year in Bethel competition was
Keith Davis. He was in good form,
taking his man down 4 times
throughout the match and piling up
points to win 9-2. This brought
Bethel in reach of "Mac's" lead.
The score was 13-10.
Next came Paul Anderson who
won his decisioned match 5-2 to
make the score Love-13. Bruce
Armstrong wrestling a more ex-perienced
177 pounder lost 6-3 to
give "Mac" a 3 point lead.
Warren Johnson topped the meet
off by pinning his opponent in the
first period to give Bethel an 18-16
