New Calendar
Begins In Sept.
A longer summer vacation this
year was noted in new calendar
changes released here recently by
the college dean's office. The new
calendar will be in effect begin-ning
September, 1953.
The 1953-54 school term will
begin Wednesday, September 23,
1953. The present school year's
classes began on Wednesday, Sep-tember
10, 1952. This, in effect,
means classes will begin two
weeks later than previous years.
"Bethel is extending the fall
quarter to run up to the time of
the Christmas holidays in the corn-ing
school year. It is expected this
will aid in avoiding excessive class
cutting just prior to the holidays,"
was the statement received from
the dean's office.
The fall quarter will continue
until December 5. Examinations
for the first quarter will be Dec-ember
7 through 11. The regular
Christmas vacation will begin Fri-day,
December 11, at 5:30 p.m.
Classes will resume Tuesday, Janu-ary
5 as the Winter quarter.
In the spring, 1954, the school
year will end at approximately the
same date as this year. This year's
closing date is June 6 compared
to the 1954 date of June 4. Final
exams for the year will be May
28 through June 3. Commence-ment
will be Friday, June 4.
This is the only major change
announced in the new calendar.

THE CLARION Friday, April 24, 1953
Editorial . • ■
Ed. note: The editor, who is enroute
with the Male Chorus, sent the following
from Wilmington, Delaware.)
If the last edition of the Clarion proved
one thing (I believe it proved more) it
proved that Bethel students read their
newspaper. I have appreciated the com-ments
that have come to me. Some thought
the issue exorbitant, some said they were
disappointed and others didn't believe that
certain implications were typical of Bethel
students. I would not be fair to my readers
unless I included that a number thought
the edition was quite praiseworthy, com-mendable
and enlightening. A young Chris-tian
(not the individual that wrote the
article) shook my hand and said "Amen"
to column three, page two.
Truth is what makes journalism an hon-orable
profession. As Conference Baptists
most of us believe truth to be absolute.
Yet truth is an end that is often quite
difficult to achieve. In most problems there
are a number of factors that are uncon-trollable.
It is difficult to see an entire
picture. Truth, therefore, is a goal. A goal
Baseball!!
The matter of baseball for 1953 on Beth-el's
campus has been a controversy for
several weeks. In light of opinions held by
several students, the Student Council ap-pointed
Rudolph Forsman, seminary senior,
and Lucius Butler, seminary junior, to
make an inquiry into this matter to ascer-tain
the true reason why there would be
no baseball this year.
As a result of this inquiry, Professor
Royal Bloom, chairman of the Faculty Corn-miftee
on Athletics, presented to the Stu-dent
Council a very full and complete re-port,
including the historical background
of promotion of baseball on campus this
year.
The following is an outline of the acti-vities
of the coach and the faculty com-mittee:
1. A notice was placed in the Christmas
issue of the Clarion of a meeting to be
held December 8, 1952, for all those inter-ested
in participating in spring sports.
Those who could not attend the meeting
were to see the coach.
2, A notice was placed in the February
6 issue of the Clarion in which the coach
explained the necessity for more interest
to be shown if there were to be spring
sports.
3. The faculty committee held a meeting
on February 9 in which they discussed and
decided upon eligibility rules. These rules
would take full effect next fall.
4. The faculty committee held a meeting
on March 9 in which they discussed the
possibility of retaining baseball this spring.
Coach Peterson informed the committee of
an existing schedule which must be can-celled
if there were to be no baseball team.
5. The faculty committee met on March
19. Coach Peterson presented a list of
fourteen names (one person had written
his name and then crossed it out) which
had been placed on the list provided on
the college bulletin board. The committee
took each name individually and found
that only three of these who could actu-ally
play and were then registered in the
college had a "C" average.
On the basis of this list and the appar-ent
lack of student response to the two
calls by the coach, the Faculty Committee
on Athletics discussed and then voted not
to have a baseball team this year.
6. Since this announcement in the Clar-ion
and elsewhere, there has been much
discussion, both pro and con, concerning
the coach, the school, and further possi-bilities
of a baseball team.
The following points need to be made
clear:
1. The committee, not the coach, made
the decision to drop baseball this year.
2. This action on the part of the com-mittee
does not affect Bethel's standing
with any organization or conference in
which they desire membership.
3. This action was based upon the ap-parent
lack of student interest in base-ball
as evidenced in lack of players.
4. It is the responsibility of the college
coach to promote varsity sports. The com-mittee
feels that the coach has done this
in relation to baseball. They feel that the
next move should have come from the
student body.
of life to be sure but also the goal of
every situation. In order to reach this end
one must look objectively at the point in
question. One must examine himself and
seek out any logic-tight compartments that
would bigot his judgment.
In order to solve a problem one must
first recognize the existence of the prob-lem.
There can be little question in the
minds of Bethel students that the last
edition of the Clarion hit upon some per-tinent
problems. The purpose of a news-paper
is to bring truth to light. The Clar-ion
is the official newspaper of Bethel Col-lege
and Seminary. It is a student news-paper.
It is financed, written, and edited
by the students. The Clarion is not a pro-motional
periodical, nor is it a devotional
publication. As I asserted in my first edi-torial,
my responsibility is to print all the
news and happenings pertinent to student
life on Bethel campus.
I recognize three mistakes I made in the
last edition. I consider my motives for
every article in that edition to be just
and constructive. However, (1) I "loaded"
the edition with "gripe" articles. Gripe
articles are good for a newspaper and for
a school but a proper balance should be
maintained. (2) I included one sentence
in my editorial concerning salaries that
should have been omitted. Also (3) I should
have included an editor's note with the
article "I was a very young Christian,"
explaining that the theme was originally
written as a creative writing theme and
although the incidents are true the end-ing
was added for effect.
Freedom must be maintained with truth.
One does not come without the other. They
are inseparable. My purpose has been to
apply the concept of American democratic
freedom to our college newspaper. With-out
this conviction, I see little virtue in
any newspaper. Like the referee at a bas-ketball
game, I call the fouls as I see
them. I am subject to error; nevertheless,
my duty is to write truth by my convic-tion.
When we realize the circumstances un-der
which it was written, we also realize
the tendency to "high light" an article
for purposes of effect.
We are sure that each of us feels the
need of growing as Christians more and
more into that fullness of stature which
is Christ Himself.
And if some of us are more mature we
will want to show sympathy and helpful-ness
to those who may be less experienced
in spiritual matters.
eni5 of Xbouglit
by President Wingblade
Roger Babson, of the Babson Institute,
Boston, used to say that there are two
schools of thought as to when civilization
started. One holds that it was brought by
the invention of the wheel; the other, by
the taming of the horse or beast of burden.
Babson says that
both are wrong. Civil-ization
came when
man found that he
could have faith in his
fellow man.
Be that as it may on
the human level, we
know that the person
who towers in the old
Testament is the man
who believed God and
it was counted him for
righteousness.
Dale Carnegie emphasizes the need for
faith in oneself. "Do the thing you fear
to do and your doubts and fears will van-ish."
"All merit comes from braving the
unequal;
All glory comes from daring to
begin."
Then it is surely true that faith in our
fellow man is important. We trust the
driver of the bus, the pilot of the plane,
the engineer on the train—with our very
lives. Ninety-percent of all business is done
on credit.
But the faith that is basic is the faith
in God. Just as the sun's rays give light
in the very shadows so the faith in God
makes possible the other faiths.
When we step out on God's faithfulness,
we find it solid. "Wherever the sole of thy
foot shall tread,—that have I given thee."
Note the past tense. It is done. All we
need to do is to step out, to appropriate.
.2etteu die
Dear Editor,
I believe that there were some errors
and some incorrect analyses in the editor-ial
on baseball in the last issue of the
Clarion.
First, the coach did not—nor can he—
drop baseball. This action can be taken
only by the faculty committee on ath-letics.
Second, there never were seventeen- pros-pective
players in attendance at any base-ball
meeting. The number that attended
the final meeting was from five to seven.
Where the number seventeen came from
will be seen below.
Third, even if Bethel were now planning
to apply for admission to the M.I.A.A., it
would not ". . . need to field five sports."
No fixed number is required.
Fourth, in the faculty committee on ath-letics
the question was not regarded so
much as a matter of eligibility but rather
as a matter of interest. We now return to
the number seventeen. Fourteen people
signed the list for prospective players.
Three more indicated directly to the coach
that they would play. There had been re-peated
and urgent notice given by the
Clarion that the program was dependent
upon adequate response. Forgetting the ex-tremely
bad eligibility standing displayed
by roughly half of these prospective play-ers,
let us examine this group. (Actually
the new eligibility code does not have full
force until September). By the time the
decision to drop baseball had to be made,
one of the group had withdrawn for phy-sical
reasons, another had left school, a
third student had indicated he would have
to drop school in the spring, another had
decided he had to withdraw for scholastic
reasons, and the coach on the basis of
past experience in other sports realized
the possibility of the development of situa-tions
which would prevent some of the
interested candidates from participating in
the sport. Of the remainder only one per-son,
who stated his experience was limited,
indicated interest in pitching.
It is true that only thirteen men appear-ed
for the first football practice. But the
CLARION forgets that all men were not
yet registered or on campus. It also for-gets
that many others had already indicat-ed
that they would appear at later prac-tices.
The analogy between football and
baseball is unfortunate in another regard.
The student body actively supports foot-ball,
but not so with baseball. Even in
the best seasons of Bethel's baseball, few
students supported the team and last year's
attendance was discouraging.
Perhaps it is worth actively promoting
a particular sport which can claim only
small player and student interest if there
are unlimited funds. But where funds are
limited and where a large portion of the
"thirteen' players cannot make a "C" aver-age
it is certainly questionable if the sport
should be promoted. The committee decid-ed
it was not worth while on the basis
of this year's facts, and I fail to see how
it could have decided otherwise.
Finally let me , mildly chide the Clarion
for not only the above-mentioned errors,
but also for the misleading picture printed
with the editorial. Only three of the five
pictured had any intentions of playing base-ball
this spring. What was pictured? A
baseball lobby?
Sincerely,
W. H. P.
Dear Editor,
Your edition of April 10 reached a new
low in editorial policy with the -articles,
"I Was a Very Young Christian" and
"You're Not So Hot."
Such articles may be all right for the
slush of daily newspapers but have no
place in our paper. I hope your policy
changes. Sincerely,
H. Wyman Malmsten
Dear Editor,
When I read the last issue of the Clar-ion,
I found something that seems to have
stirred up a great deal of discussion on
campus. I refer to the article entitled "I
Was a Very Young Christian."
I feel that the person whose views are
expressed in this article, is a bit mixed
up all right. But how right she is in re-gard
to "holiness" on the part of Bethel
students. If we were half as concerned
about our inward holiness as we are about
our outward show of Christianity, I think
there would be a great revival in the hearts
of students. We go through our daily and
weekly ritual and our Christianity becomes
mechanical instead of spiritual. To the
non-Christian who is looking for something
real from Christians, this cold "religion"
must be anything but impressive.
Let's see more articles of this type in
the future—articles that will stimulate our
thinking. R. L. R.
Peace ... It's Wonderful
by Berge A. Hoogasian
After last week's uproar I am led to
believe that people think I'm (a) a habitual
gripe (b) hard to get along with (c) frust-rated
(d) I've got peanuts for brains. I
categorically deny the first three. There
may be some truth in the latter.
In support of my denials I maintain that
(a) sometimes I say nice things—mostly
blarney; (b) my wife hasn't left me yet
and (c) I like it here. As a matter of fact
I think that by and large Bethelites are
the finest aggregation of collegians and
seminarians I've ever known. (I've studied
at five different colleges and universities.)
You're not perfect—but neither is any giv-en
group assembled anywhere outside of
heaven. I'll even go as far as to say I'm not
perfect—and brother, that's goin' a long
way!
So I get a little peeved with you; so
what? You still love me, don't you? I get
peeved with my brother and he loves me.
At times he'd like to beat my few brains
out, but he still loves me.
Many of you have disagreed in various
shades of violence on my articles. I didn't
expect you to be in full agreement. There
are probably a lot of things you don't like
about my writing—or me personally. Well,
I'm going to give you a chance to get them
off your respective chests.
At some time in the near future I will
compose a column and entitle it "I'm Not
So Hot" made up entirely of your legiti-mate
complaints about me. If you'll write
them down, sign them and place them in
P.O. Box 160, I promise as a Christian that
I won't use any names of contributors and
will not reveal those names to anyone. The
writers of the ten most interesting letters
on my shortcomings will even be treated
to coffee—if I can get the Editor to fin-ance
it.
Now I'll just sit back and enjoy the tem-porary
peace—it's wonderful!

Student Senate
Officers to Be
Elected May 1
The By-Laws to the Bethel Stu-dent
Association Constitution were
fully discussed and passed (vote of
7 aye's and 2 no's) by the Student
Council. Also the changing of the
name Student Council to Student
Senate was discussed and passed
without a dissenting vote. This
will be an amendment to the pre-sent
Constitution. It does not
change any function of the present
Student Council but rather clari-fies
the various groups on cam-pus
in terminology.
Student senate officers will be
elected Friday, May 1, 1953. Vot-ing
chairman Harold Richardso
announced that it is planned that

Questions & Answers4
For Servicemen
Q. I am a disabled veteran tak-ing
training under Public Law 16.
After I finish my course, will VA
find me a job?
A. Under the law, VA's primary
responsibility is to restore your
ability to earn a living, in spite
of your handicap. When you are
ready, VA will refer you to a
State or Federal employment ag-ency
which will help you find a
job.
Q. I want to buy a house with
a GI loan. Can you tell me why
it's necessary to have the house
appraised by VA?
A. The law requires that the
purchase price of your house must
not be more than the reasonable
value, as determined by proper
appraisal made by an appraiser
designated by VA.
Q. I am a World War II veteran
in training under the GI Bill, but
I am now in a hospital with a
broken leg. Even though the cut-off
date has passed, will I be per-mitted
to reume my studies after
I get out of the hospital?
A. Yes. But you must resume
your training within a reasonable
time after you recover from your
injury. You should check with
your VA regional office as soon
as you can, to learn what would
be considered a "reasonable time,"
in your case.
Q. Is it possible to pay National
Service Life Insurance premiums
on any other basis than every
month? I find it quite a bother to
make out a check every month.
A. Yes. Premiums may be paid
annually, semi-annually or quar-terly.
In fact, it's cheaper that way.
Your VA insurance office will be
glad to supply all the details.

N.C.F. Sponsors Tea for
Prospective Nurses May 6
by Jeanne Swanson
On Wednesday, May 6th, at 3:15 p.m., the Nurses Christian Fel-lowship
on campus is planning to have a Tea at the home of Mrs.
Alphin Conrad (1343 Arona St.) for all girls who are interested in
nursing. The program will elaborate in part on the information present-ed
by the Mounds-Midway nurses in chapel on April 16th, and Erma
Ruddell will tell of "Opportunities in Nursing."
- Lauralie Nelson and Beverly Patterson will present the various
factors which should be considered when choosing a school of nurs-ing,
as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the Christian and
secular school.
There will also be opportunity
for discussion on questions which
may be in the minds of some,
and for this purpose a "Question
Box" has been posted on the col-lege
bulletin board. We would like
to have as many questions as pos-sible
placed in the box before the
Tea so that they may receive
the most adequate consideration.
We would also appreciate having
the names of all who plan to at-tend
sign on the bulletin board.
Perhaps some of you may have
been wondering in just what acti-vities
the N. C. F. has participated
this year. Our weekly meetings
have been mostly for the purpose
of prayer, and have proved a real
blessing not only as we have re-membered
our own needs and
praises, but also the requests of
N. C. F. groups throughout the
country as related to us through
the central office in Chicago.
Beside these weekly meetings,
the Lord has afforded us oppor-tunities
for going as gospel teams
to various places as Booth Memor-ial
Home, Midway Hospital, N.C.F.,
and several "Hi-C" groups where
we have presented to high school
young people the nursing profes-sion
in both its vocational and
spiritual aspects.
In January a banquet was held
in the Bethel Dining Hall for the
twin-city area N. C. F. groups,
which concluded a two-day "con-ferette."
Hannah Plaut acted as
toast-mistress, and Mrs. Franklin
Nelson presented a challenging
missionary message.
On April 30th the St. Paul
N. C. F. will have their monthly
city-wide meeting at 8:00 p.m. in
the girls' lounge — Bodien. Jean
Larson will speak and a Bethel
quartette will sing. Again all girls
who are interested in N. C. F.
are welcome.
Before the school year is over,
tentative plans are in the making
for a trip to Rochester, Minn., to

"THE CHURCH ON THE CAMPUS"
Royal Rite-up
Schoo: Spirit Has Been
Good--Keep It Up
One of the most noticeable differences between high school athle-tics
and collegiate athletics is the varying degree of spirit and enthus-iasm
accompanying the sports. Many a sports fan would much rather
watch a high school game rather than a college athletic contest or a
professional game, where the difference is even more noticeable, simp-ly
for the spirit that is shown on the part of the crowd.
Doctors tell us that getting excited over an exhibition without par-ticipating
in the activity can be harmful to an individual because of
the chemicals produced in the body .which may be injurious to the
body.
Bethel has no recorded cases of anyone being permanently or
even temporarily handicapped by such a malady but Bethel athletes
have certainly felt and heard that the fans were behind them.
Several of the outsiders visiting our games have commented to
members of the staff and the team concerning the fine spirit of the
fans and the students at Bethel and it is a credit to our school.
>Let's keep it up. It's a vital part of 'our" athletic program.

A word of appreciation should probably come from this depart-ment
for the contributions of the young people's groups of our con-ference
for the contributions to our gymnasium.
The scoreboard, clock, gymnastic equipment and other items have
been purchased, in part, by the donations received from these groups.
To the contributors a word of thanks goes forth from the sports
staff of the Clarion.
Al Chris won the 100 yd. dash
in 10.3 seconds. He also scored a
second in the pole vault (10' 6"),
third in the 220 (23.9 seconds) and
a fourth in the broad-jump (18'
9").
Jim Coleman took a third in the
440 and a fourth in the 220. Nor-man
Moore placed fourth in the
440 yd. dash. Don Stipe tied for
third place in the pole vault. Gene
Glader placed fourth in both the
120 yd. high hurdles and 220 lows.
The 880 relay team placed second;
those running were Ford Wilson,
Norman Moore, Fred Thomas, and
Jim Coleman.
sistant will be Marion Erickson,
also a freshman.
Sophomore representatives for
next year will be Carla Kern and
Carol Michelson. Catherine Bab-cock
will continue to serve as
freshman representative.

Royals Place 8th
In Carleton Relays
Last Saturday Bethel entered
the Carleton relays and finished
in next to last place. Paul Nyberg
and Don Stipe did the placing to
give the Royals 2 3/5 points.
Nyberg failed to place in the
shot put, but took a neat fourth
place in the discus with a throw
of 116' 11/2". Stipe pole vaulted
for the first time in four years
and reached the height of 10' 6".
He tied three others for fourth
place. Also putting the shot was
Jim MacFadyen. High-jumping for
Bethel were Howard Johnson and
Harold Erickson.
Al Christensen qualified for the
finals in the 100 yd. dash (doing
the distance in 10.6 seconds), but
failed to place when the final heat
was run. Ford Wilson ran a neat
mile and ended up eighth amongst
sixteen participants.
The Royals also entered two re-lay
teams. In the sprint medley
relay the team consisted of Jim
Coleman running the 440, Al
Christensen and Harold Erickson
each running 220 yds., and Ford
Wilson running the half mile (880).
The 880 yd. relay team was com-posed
of Al Chris, Harold Erick-son,
Norman Moore and Jim Cole-man.
Coach Del Ray believes that his
cinder-men would have done con-siderably
better if they would have
had adequate opportunities for
conditioning. The squad "works-out"
on the Macalester College
track.
V. Larson Is Elected
Girls' Dorm President
Monday night the occupants of
Bodien residence voted for the
officers of the Women's Dormi-tory
Council for 1953-1954.
Chosen president was Virginia
Larson, college junior, who has
served this year as treasurer of
the Council. Beverly Mullin, sopho-more,
was re-elected to the office
of vice-president.
Angie Armbruster, freshman,
was chosen as treasurer. Her as-visit
the Mayo clinic. Further no-tice
of this will be posted later,
but we would like to take this
opportunity to invite anyone with
medical interests to come along
and visit with us this famous
medical center.
Our group has been blessed
with the addition of three new
nurses this quarter. Lilla Kirkpat-rick
is a graduate nurse and mis-sionary
on last months of furlough
from India where she has already
served six years under the Con-servative
Baptist Board. She has
been a real blessing in our fellow-ship
as well as have been Barbara
Harper and Esther K_amphauser,
both recent graduates from Swed-ish
Covenant Hospital in Chicago.
We thank the Lord for the won-derful
blessings and fellowship
we have found this year at Bethel,
and pray it will make us better
channels through which others
may be benefited, and Christ glori-fied.

Bethel edged Northwestern 21 1/2

the two smaller schools feel
they are only participating against
each other.
