Banquet eases down yellow brick road
by Jan E. Johnson
On Monday, May 10, Ken
Steinbach was awarded a
$250 scholarship during
the annual Raspberry
Monday art exhibition at
the Bethel Gallery.
"The name of the award
came from an incident
that happened to the do-nors,
who want to remain
anonymous, on a Monday
while picking raspberries;
hence, 'Raspberry Mon-day,'
" said George Robin-son,
professor of art.
"When we first received
the award 10 years ago, it
was the first such award
that the ' art department
had ever received, so we
decided to have an art ex-hibition
to publicize the
award. But I'd like to em-phasize
the fact that the
winner of the award is not
the winner of the exhibi-tion.
It's not a contest, but
strictly a student exhibi-tion
to publicize the Rasp-berry
Monday award."
Each year the faculty of
the art department selects
a student who is not only
outstanding in art, but has
also contributed to the art
department and to Bethel
in terms of leadership and
participation. The winner
is usually a junior or sen-ior
and the $250 is used
towards tuition.
Bethel's All School Ban-quet,
Saturday, May 15,
will host the theme "The
Wizard of Us."
Dinner will be served in
the gym (the Emerald Ci-ty),
the Coffee Shop
(Munchkin Land) and the

Bethel College will not
house students at Bright-on
Village next year, ac-cording
to Rodney Long,
director of housing. More
seniors and juniors were
housed than expected but
because of the low num-ber
of sophomores apply-ing
for Bethel housing the
19 apartments at Brighton
Village will not be used.
Long said that not all of
those apartments had
been assigned and that stu-dents
are being given the
option of moving to Sil-vercrest.
"We didn't want
to do it but it is not good
stewardship to rent very
expensive housing and
have other housing emp-ty,"
said Long. It causes an
increase in the students'
expenses. Long said the
decision is uncertain at
this point as to if a bus
will run to Brighton Vil-lage.
Because there are still

been extended for contin-uing
students. Long has
lifted the quota limits for
each class of students.
"I'm assuming we've met
100 per cent of the senior's
needs for those who've ap-plied
so far," said Long.
In round #1 the senior
quota was reached and ex-tended
at that time. In to-tal,
197 seniors were given
housing, 150 per cent of
senior capacity. There
was an increase in the
number of seniors request-ing
housing. The junior
quota was reached in
round #2. One-hundred
seventeen juniors were

based on the past.
Four-hundred twenty re-ceiving
housing, only 85
per cent of projected need.
Long said he feels the
application procedure
went well. Almost 700 ap-plied
in the first round.
Long said that there are
approximately 30 over-loads
in apartments right
now. These overloads in-creased
the senior quota.
Long speculates that the
decrease in sophomore ap-plications
may be due to
rate increases, financial
aid uncertainties or to
summer job uncertainties.

"We're not real sure how
it's going to turn out, we're
just sort of winging it,"
said John Tarula, instruc-tor
in the art department,
in reference to yesterday's
Artichoke Thursday. A
continuation of Raspberry
Monday, Artichoke Thurs-day
first came about when
Tarula was driving past a
town in California which
claimed to be the arti-choke
capital of the world.
"Well, there's the 'art' in
'artichoke,' and artichokes
are kind of eccentric vege-tables,
so it's kind of a
chance for everyone to be
eccentric in the court-yard,"
Tarula said. "Be-sides,
it's the day before
the last day of classes, so
it's also kind of a celebra-tion."
Several cases of arti-chokes
were shipped in to
be served with butter
sauce for the enjoyment of
the entire students body.
The Bethel Jazz Band was
slated to appear, and there
were plans for door prizes.

Student leaders:
look to past, future
This time of the year is known for endings: finals and
graduation are good examples. But it is also a time of
beginnings. As the graduates leave Bethel and move on
to new tasks, returning students, too, are beginning
new tasks for the summer and the coming school year.
New beginnings are often attacked with ambition
and idealism. To an extent that is great—every organi-zation
needs new ideas, fresh approaches and the
excitement students can bring in. But in the excitement
of a new task, it is easy to lose sight of ground work
done by predecessors and of the long-term goals. This is
particularly true in the college setting where there are
new leaders every year.
So a few recommendations for new student leaders:
Remember, many people have been here before you
doing what they thought was best for the students at
the time, and there will be many to follow after you, too.
So be far-sighted and sensitive to the whole school's
needs. The students and administrators should have
some input. They have good ideas; listen to them.
God bless all of you as you start new tasks.
letters Tanquist withholds 50% as 'conscience deduction'
Dear Editor:
I've never been aesthet-ically
impressed with
Bethel's boxy structures
(functionally, however,
they're great) until I open-ed
this week's Clarion:
Don Copeland's center-spread
makes what once
seemed Bethel bland more
like Marcel Breuer's time-less
arches at St. John's or
I.M. Pei's daring angles at
the National Gallery of
Art or the ordered geomet-rics
of De Stijl. Don proves
the point that it all de-pends
on how you look at
it—and he has a very good
eye.

Internal Revenue Service
Peace be unto you:
I have decided after
much thought and prayer
to withhold a portion of
my federal income tax for
reasons of conscientious
objection to war. I have
chosen not to pay 50 per
cent of the tax due to my
government and will in-stead
give it to peace-seek-ing
and life-affirming or-ganizations.
I believe that the United
States' preparation for nu-clear
war and a first strike
capability poses the great-est
threat to the survival
of the human race and life
on this planet. It is the
greatest evil we are called
to support. My religious
beliefs and conscience di-rect
me to continue my
objection to this rush to-ward
destruction in refus-ing
to contribute to it. The
past two years I have con-sciously
lived beneath the
taxable limit to avoid con-tributing
to this madness.
A further factor in my
refusal of the war portion
of the federal income tax
is the multitude of human
needs which go unmet be-cause
the military gets the
bulk of the budget money.
This is evident in 'Presi-dent
Reagan's proposed
budget and cutbacks di-rectly
hurting and depriv-ing
the poor, the elderly
and those in school while
blatantly enhancing and
strengthening the military
and escalating the nuclear
arms buildup. Through-out
my city and the entire
country this is apparent in
the housing crisis and ram-pant
unemployment;
many are lacking basic
necessities. People are
starving around the world
but the United States sells
and gives their govern-ment
weapons.
The final meeting of the
Student Senate was held
in the Upsala Room at a
dinner banquet on May
10. The ceremonies in-cluded
the giving of
awards, both serious and
humorous, and reviewing
the budgets of Senate-funded
organizations.

Covenant College offers
computer science major
LOOKOUT MOUN-TAIN,
Tenn. (CCN)—Cov-enant
College plans to
bring every student to "a
satisfactory level of corn-puter
literacy before grad-uation,"
reports Covenant
Courier, a college publica-tion.
"This will soon be an
important step in being
able to work in any area of
society," says Dr. Charles
Donaldson, director of plan-ning
and enrollment devel-opment.
"If you think corn-puters
are in wide use
now, just wait and see
what happens in the next
few years."
Beginning next fall, stu-dents
at Covenant will be
able to take computer
science as a major in prep-aration
for careers in bus-iness,
data processing,
scientific computing, data
analysis, or graduate study
in computer science. Or,
computer science can be
taken as a minor along
with a major in such areas
as business administra-tion,
accounting, pre-engin-eering—
or even Bible or
English, the college publi-cation
notes.
"A compelling reason for
the decision to add the
computer science pro-gram,"
Dr. Donaldson ex-plains,
"was the need to
address the many challeng-ing
issues related to the
computer revolution with-in
the context of a Chris-tian
liberal arts education.
"In addition to master-ing
computing skills and
applications, the purpose,
motivation and theory of
computer science will be
explored. Students will be
presented strategies for re-lating
technology and one's
Christian faith and world
view," he adds.
Dr. Douglas Sizemore,
who has been teaching com-puter
science classes and
statistics at Covenant the
past eight years, will direct
the program and teach sev-eral
courses in the new
major.
"I am excited about this
program and the possibili-ties
it will open up," he
says. "In addition to pre-paring
students for various
business and computer ca-reers,
we will be working
on important applications
for the local church and
para-church organizations.
"Existing programs at
Covenant will be augment-ed
by the on-campus corn-puter
program," he notes.
"An increasing number of
disciplines now require
competence in computer
science."
Last December, Coven-ant
College was advised
that a $220,000 grant is
being awarded to the col-lege
by an anonymous do-nor
to fund the new pro-gram
of studies in informa-tion
and computer science.
by Kraig,Klaudt
After four years, I still cannot- decide whether my
stay in the Kingdom of Bethel deserves a Psalm or a
Lamentation.
Yes, there was lifestyle, liberty and the pursuit of
preppiness. However, there was also the frustration of
moving among individuals and institutions who bore
the name of a Savior they sometimes scarcely resem-bled.
While I have never regretted attending this school
(and you can quote me in the admissions catalogue as
saying so), I do have a few final moans and groans to
make for the benefit of those left behind in this year's
senior rapture.
First of all, I am concerned that our college is becom-ing
more an institution and less a community.
I have never been a fan of institutions. They take a
strangle-hold on human life through unflexible policies,
crystalized budgets, sterile syllabi and codified charity.
Locks welded on PO box doors and silverware-sniffing
bloodhounds patrolling the cafeteria exits are only a
couple indications of a community selling its birthright
for the cold comfort of institutionalism. .
Community, on the other hand, is a beautiful medium
through which the varied instruments of God'can be
given expression. It might be the spontaneous creativ-ity
of a guitarist making melody in the hallway, or a
professor who appreciates a student's need for flexible,
nonstandard education. Or perhaps a night watchman
who will make an exception when 11 p.m. rolls around.
Every administrative policy, every classroom objec-tive,
every opportunity for apathy has the potential of
moving what we broadly term as "Bethel" a step closer
to either community or institutionalism.
Secondly, I am concerned for those who are opting for
unauthenticity rather than humanness.
Far too many students seem content to settle with
grades, GPAs and consensus rather than with intellec-tual
honesty and even uncertainty. Popularity is usu-ally
chosen before personal conviction. Religion is too
often an adequate substitute for an experience with the
Savior.
On May 23, I will be handed my little prize. for suc-cessfully
completing a rigorous, four-year academic
steeplechase. I anticipate that this event will be anti-climactic.
I may stand there and mutter, "Is this what it
all was for?"
As is so many other areas of life, it will again become
clear that the prizes are of paper and tinsel while the
value is in how the race run. Looking back, I regret the
evenings I played scholarly games rather than directly
adding to another person's life. I regret the times I
ignored my own spiritual well-being for the sake of
temporal tasks and deadlines. So few things in life
really matter as much as other people and Christ.
Finally, I am concerned about the symbols with
which Bethelites identify.
Sometimes I think that the only light to come from
our city on a hill originates at the twin radio towers east
of the campus at night. Are we really that unique in this
world with our all-steak banquets, utopian fieldhouses,
chic dorm room decor and marshmellow-white recruit-ment?
Are we feeding His sheep or supporting Alliga-tors
and Izods?
Obviously, much healing and compassion has come
out of Bethel. But has it been to the degree that the poor
and oppressed can testify, "Yes, they have been for us
and with us"?
Having done more lamenting than praising, I must
apologize for not giving due credit to the many positive
forces at work on the campus. Believe me, there are
many. As I said before, I am glad I lived these past years
at 3900 Bethel Drive. I only hope that twenty years from
now, when I identify myself as a graduate of Bethel
College, I will be able to say the same more enthusias-tically.

Synopsis of
college career
Dear Editor:
1. What I have learned: I
have learned to ask good
questions.
2. What I want to be (now
that I am grown up?): I
want to be a cowboy, a
super-hero, or a gasoline
station attendant.
Bethel has been my place
to experience what can be
summed up as "life" —
what makes it worthwhile
and why I am even here. I
grew and learned, and Beth-el
facilitated my steps and
provided the means for my
"life project," otherwise
known as a college educa-tion.
Who's to thank? People,
some I don't even know.
People who help build this
place, and breathe into it
,brave aspirations which
we as students may lay
hold of. Especially the
teachers, who are so good
at bringing out of us things
we never knew were there;
the amazing profs who
listen and care, and who
willingly read papers
stained with coffee, writ-ten
the night before.
Now I'm preparing to
leave this place into who-knows-
what and I am
ready. I've been filled with
things for four years now,
and it's coming time to test
and sharpen them. Bethel
has prepared me and I have
prepared me; and although
there is always some sad-ness
when a part of your
life closes, there is also an
excitement for life and a
desire for what lies be-yond.
And with God's
help, we'll all lay hold of it.
Thank you, Bethel for
your computerized room-mate
selection. This has
given me some of the best
friends I'll ever have.
Thank you, custodians
and caretakers, for attempt-ing
to maintain Bethel's
beauty. I look forward to
your spring clean-up every
year.
Thank you, "profs" who
took the time to get to
know my name... and me,
not just my PO or ID num-ber.
Thank. you to the stu-dents

Chapman makes final comment about Lifestyle Statement
Dear Editor:
Seeing as this is the last
issue of the Clarion for the
year and my last chance to
write, I thought I'd con-tribute
to the ongoing dis-cussion
of the lifestyle,
something I've planned to
do for months now.
The lifestyle is not com-patible
with the idea of a
liberal arts college educa-tion.
Essential to a liberal
arts education is a great
deal of self-development
and exploration. It is a
time when a student can
really establish/discover
the meaning or lack of it
behind his or her different
beliefs. A behavioral life-style
puts limits on its
exploring process.
Beyond the norms it sets
down, it also often pro-jects
or is the cause of cer-tain
attitudes. A student
does not always feel free
to question his/her beliefs
in an atmosphere like Beth-el's.
This questioning is
crucial to the building of a
strong spiritual and phil-osophical
base. When be-liefs
are left unquestioned,
they only come into doubt
later at times of testing. I
often do not feel comfor-table
to share my doubts,
spiritual and other, with
others at Bethel. Instead
of being a forum for dis-cussion
the institution on-ly
serves to enhance re-viewal
of certain kosher
topics. Right/wrogg dicho-tomies
are encouraged in
situations where they do
not belong.
The lifestyle also dis-torts
Christianity by em-phasizing
the exterior in-stead
of the interior of a
person's actions and atti-tudes.
By saying the life-style
is what makes Bethel
distinctive, we reflect a
Christianity far from what
Jesus called it to be. He
attacked all forms of legal-ism.
Referring to the Pha-risees
he said, "These peo-ple
honor me with their
lips, but their hearts are
far from me. They wor-shi
p me in vain: their teach-ings
are but rules taught
by men... Nothing outside
a man can make him 'un-clean'
by going into him.
Rather, it is what comes
out of a man that makes
him 'unclean,"' (Mark 7:6b-
7,15).
Paul also follows along
these lines. In Romans 14,
after considering the ques-tion
of unclean food and
those of weak and strong
faith, he writes, "So what-ever
you believe about
these things keep between
yourself and God." (14:22)
Also in Colossians • he
writes, "Therefore do not
let anyone judge you by
what you eat or drink, or
with regard to a religious
festival... Such regula-tions
indeed have an ap-pearance
of wisdom, with
their self-imposed wor-ship,
their false humility
and their harsh treatment
of the body, but they lack
any value in restraining
sensual indulgence." (Col.-
2:16,23) Read Mark 12:28-
34 and find what is truly
important.
Bethel has become for
me a place of restriction
rather than of freedom. Not
that the number of actual
restrictions are so great, it
is more just a feeling, just
the atmosphere. There
have been many things I've
deeply appreciated in my
four years at Bethel: the
different opportunities to
learn and widen my hori-zons,
good friends, many
good professors (to whom
I'm very grateful, though I
did not not always express
this to them, and more.
One thing, though, that I
will not mind leaving be-hind
will be the lifestyle
code. Often I've wondered
(and others too) what
Bethel could be if what
made it distinctive was its
Christian liberal arts edu-cation
combined with free-dom
from a lifestyle code.
Sincerely
Mark B. Chapman

My Crumpled Coat
Beside me lies my crumpled coat,
A crushed and twisted image: mine.
But you, my chaffing friend won't note;
You ask, "How are you?" I am fine
I glibly lie through practiced gloat,
But inside begging all the time
To show you how my feelings go:
Look at my crumpled coat and know.

I trek along a stone-fenced lane,
My thirst slows down my pace.
Turning aside from the well-worn road
To a path winding around the stile,
I come upon a childhood haunt
Secluded by poplar trees.
The old tin cup dangles from a hook,
Overhanging a spring that bursts
From beds of rock where eons sleep.
A rusted pail peeks out
Between the dew-hemmed grass.
I stoop to drink of water
That bites of fall.
And catch a toad in silence,
Like me, bathing in morning song.
The House
A drive along a narrow, deserted road will
inevitably guide you to it. The once stately mansion
occupies a sunken hollow. Weatherbeaten trees
accompanied by overwhelming weeks embrace
the deterioration.
A broken, stony path that curls from the road to
the house is obscured by gnarling sage that
caroms across the grounds.
A deteriorating picket fence stands as a sentinel
guarding the external world from the cold, lonely
terror that seeps from the bosom of the house.
As the gate withdraws to foot steps, a lonely hinge
wails its revenge as the gate drops to the ground.
Dangling branches grasp for the moonlight as
you walk down the path.
The ominous house looms mysteriously before
you. From the dilapidated porch a swing hangs
from a solitary frayed rope. The dark windows, like
sunken black eyes glare unblinkingly through
worm-eated frames, and splintered siding.
A feeling of disquietness engulfs you as you turn
to leave. Is it something to fear or to pity?
The huge and ancient stone
For centuries it lay
Poised at the summit.
Through all of the thousands of tiny
fissures and cracks
The minutest lichens and mosses clung
Each sending its own microscopic hairs
into the hard stone.
Tiny roots of destruction
Year upon year
Time without end
Then, at last
The foundation falters
Every tremor of earth is felt
As the stone loosens its hold
On the summit possessed so long
The great stone falling
Splintering on the smaller rocks below
Rocks which had once been as this stone was—
All toppled by time.
Morning Sojourn
In early morning sojourn
I breathe deep the autumn air.
It is crisp in September,
When mornings are fall;
Past noon, it turns to summer.

My Chippewa friend rests in his battered canoe.
His eyes look out from a face lined by sixty hard
years. I sit crosslegged on the aging dock. The
planks beneath me are smooth and bleached
almost white by the suns and snows of many
seasons. We are watching an October sun sink
behind the spruce trees on the distant shore.
An orange glow builds slowly in the western sky. It
creeps across the silent lake and emblazons each
stem of wild rice. The glow flows around us, past us,
to the shore where it warms the whiteness of the
birches and burnishes a million golden leaves. I
watch Fred's eyes move, from the sky, to the lake, to
the woods, to me. The lines of his face deepen to
give the hint of a smile, and I know that we share a
glow of our own, seeping through us, generating its
own warmth of inner peace.
We listen; and hear the silence, a silence
accentuated by one soft clunk of a paddle shifting
on the gunwales. We listen and hear the sigh of
Toolies brushing the canoe. Then slowly I sense a far
off sound. It is like a thousand muted wind chimes,
or perhaps, the muffled chuckles of a hundred
bubbling brooks. I sit listening, wondering if it's real.
"That's Mudhens," he says.
His answering of my unspoken question startles,
but does not surprise me. It seems quite normal, for
I have returned to another world. The tensions of my
technological life have drained away. I am
experiencing again the reality that I am my village
and my village is me. I am a part of the cliffs and
forests, and they are a part of me. My brother and I
are one. We are hearing each other—soul to soul.

I am a mass of people.
I am a label machine.
I'm the strange majority
We all know as "they".
I can squeeze an individual
Into my common mold,
Until he's finally labeled
And shaped just like the crowd.
I'm the mold that no one fits,
Yet anyone can join.
Just cancel your uniqueness,
And be a groupie too.
I'm the unseen pressure,
My power can't be denied.
I love to watch you all pretend
To be someone you're not.

But for it you must pay;
Just give me your identity
And I'll make you like the rest.

I went down Seventh Street and took a poll
I took my rifle and asked each man if

A soul, a person is in need. I sit while a man
comes to trial. He stands, head hung low and
begins to speak. As I listened, my heart was moved.
Not from his speech but in his voice, his sorrow, his
loneliness.
"I don't belong here, I don't belong anywhere,"
he told me. "I need a friend. For am I a fool to be
led here or am I just a fool?" he questioned. "I just
want a friend, that's all."
Our hearts cried together. Yet, when I reached to
comfort him, he was gone...
W.M.
Perhaps one day you will remember
inside some swiftly moving thought
a day, no, just a moment -
one small and transient moment
When you and I joined minds -
and then our hearts.
And perhaps, too, in that remembrance
There will be a smile
and perhaps a tear
from the laughter
and maybe, just maybe
the fear
that it all has been forgotten
But it's not.

The Brec king of c Sc Int —Judi Niemi
by Bob Walatka
I paused in church one morning to look at the statue. The woman of plaster was very still, as if to keep
her veil from slipping off. She held pink roses. More roses were scattered on the ground where she knelt.
Her head was tilted slightly as she prayed. She would not look at me, but gazed at the choir loft. It was not
right for her to avoid my eyes. St. Theresa, the Little Flower, and I were old friends. As a child, I imagined her
beside me constantly. She had been my companion. She was in almost any Catholic church, always
praying for me while she held roses. Now she would not look at me. So I stopped to remember what it was
like. I stopped to remember the day I said goodbye to St. Theresa, the day we both changed.
The wind had twisted the skirt between my legs as I walked. Paris was bright that day and the sunlight
made dead leaves glow as they skidded across the stones. The square was studded with colorful people
and lost tourists. But the dark, gray building looming over their heads held my attention. Great stones
encircled the delicate rose windows. Ancient saints guarded the wood doors and iron rings. My walk
slowed down. Notre Dame stood before me.
It was not just another cathedral to tour. It was not just another old church with much history to be
learned and remembered with photographs. A Catholic church knew me as her child. Her stones, saints
and smells were familiar. I knew Notre Dame though I had never entered there; I knew her soul. It had
been many months since I had been in a familiar place. But here I even had a dear friend waiting inside.
As I walked through the great doors, I could not have felt more welcome than N the saints of stone had
cracked a smile. I went inside leaving the wind to stir leaves and dust at the feet of St. Benedict.
When the doors closed, cool, moist air soothed my back. The clank of the door seeped into the air and
mingled with the mumblings of the Mass. The sound moved down the aged corridors and melted into the
black air. I made my way down the side corridor, passing by the stone images grafted onto the walls.
I remember the candles. Before each statue were rows of tall, white candles, dripping, leaning and
burning. The smoke prepared a haze which suspended the light. Some light slipped to the floor revealing
names, dates and remorse engraved in stone. I went past each glowing statue, looking for the familiar
eyes. I needed to see Theresa that day to tell her.
A large array of candles spread a glowing carpet before the statue. I took a few steps to see the figure
which quivered in the reflected light. The sweet face of Theresa turned to me. She paused from her prayer
to smile and offer me the rose she held. Hundreds of candles warmed my face as I drew closer. Theresa
watched as I dropped a coin into the metal box. The light reflected in her eyes as the flame eased from
one candle to mine. I knelt as the candles softly dripped.
Theresa and I prayed in silence for a time. We paused, as old friends do when there is no need to speak.
After a moment, my words began. I told her I loved her, but did not need her any more. I had found the
great King Himself. I wanted to thank her for her prayers. And I knew she still loved me. Even though I knew
she would understand, my words seemed harsh in that quiet place. I felt strange in her shadow.
My eyes felt hot, though tears tried to soothe them. As I looked at Theresa, she began to stiffen. The rose
receeded back into her hand. She resumed her prayer with a slightly tilted head. The blush in her face
grew cold. And her eyes did not meet mine. The only movement was a drop of water which stroked her
cheek.
I turned from the candles and walked away. I passed little children helping old women to kneel. Bent
heads did not stir while wax dripped to the floor. The holy water at the door was cold to my touch. I felt the
dark mumblings and walked into the crowded square. The wind sealed the door shut behind me.
And now I stood before St. Theresa again. I did not light a candle. I did not kneel or cry. I watched as
she prayed to the choir loft. She was still and quiet as stone. The solidified veil hid part of her face, but it
could not hide her faint smile. Theresa never carried a grudge for long. I smiled and walked out.

grades.

people of the Bible department went out to
him. Confessing their bad study habits, they
were baptized by him in the coffeeshop

belt around his waist, and he ate silverfish

Outlandish Reality of an Outlander
Hot muggy staleness of existence most often prevails
over life here in this land of fortune.
My cries of anger are lost among the heaps of wealth
stockpiled for a "better tomorrow."
The delusions of despair set in
while fear reveals itself to the inner soul.
Filtered memories and miraging visions leak through
to fog the film of now.
Lost unforgotten ways of life stalk the empty absolutes
of my corrupted and confused existence.
Future never comes. Its brightness fades
to surreal shades of crimson grey.
Friends of cultured diversity seem to be the only hope
for this misplaced pawn of fortune.

When I Looked on
the Apple Tree
God
I looked on the apple tree again today;
but God
this time I didn't walk by.
The apple looked so perfect.
I had to pause
if only to gaze at firm rich redness.
Beauty tasted sweet,
ripeness begging to share fullness and joy.
God
I planned to obey;
I knew I shouldn't stay
but redness filled my nostrils,
teasing my eye.
Flesh crisped in my mouth;
juice dripped down my chin.
Behind my mind
I knew I shouldn't eat
but reason disappeared
through doors
closed by delight.
God
I bit that apple, enjoyed my senses.
Sweet taste
concealed the worm
bitten in half
shouting my mistake.
I knew before and after
it was wrong.
But God
my tongue denies sweet is bitter,
my eyes, beauty is dark.
Convince my nostrils of freshness' putrid stench.
Apples taste so good,
daily reminders of our disobedience-and
your love.
God
help me live naked before you,
walk in your way.
And God
please take away the apple trees.
The Mime
Hushed audience with slitted eyes all squint
to see dim lights illuminate the white
and painted mask set on a face of flint.
The lights go up. His countenance, once tight
and dead, now loosed by beamed immortal light,
lives animated, measured lives in time
upon an empty stage: He is the mime.

Science Museum exhibits Hmong, Yao art
The extraordinary em-broidery,
batik and ap-plique
of the mountain peo-ple
of Laos are featured in
"Hmong and Yao: Folk Art
Survival", an exhibit open-ing
April 24 at The Science
Museum of Minnesota.
These examples of an
indigenous textile art form
dating back some 5,000
years have been brought
together by American pho-tojournalist
Jane Hamil-ton-
Merritt, wild was nom-inated
for a Pulitzer Prize
for her front-line coverage
of the Vietnam war, and
who holds a Ph.D. in South-east
Asian Studies. Includ-ed
are pieces at least a cen-tury
old, although many
have been recently made
in refugee camps of Thai-land,
where thousands of
Hmong and Yao refugees
have fled.
Working entirely free-hand,
tribal women creat-ed
these pieces in such
highly individualistic styl-ization
that no two are
alike. The garments which
their work adorns were
everyday wear for field
work and baby tending.
Embroidered caps, baby
carriers, jackets, trousers,
and skirts appear along-side
Dr. Hamilton-Mer-ritt's
color photographs of
men and women in tradi-tional
dress. Represented
are works of the Blue
Hmong, the White Hmong
and the Yao.
The exhibit includes
non-traditional wall hang-ings
adorned by tradition-al
motifs. Flat decorative
pieces are popular in Amer-ica,
where thousands of
Hmong refugees have re-settled.
The Minneapolis-
St. Paul area has the larg-est
concentration of such
refugees in the United
States, between 10,000 and
15,000.
Members of the Hmong
and Yao community are
invited to the exhibit as
guests of the museum on
opening day, April 24. Spe-cial
performances of tra-ditional
music and textile
demonstrations will be
held that day.
According to Hamilton-
Merritt, the ancient culture
of the Hmong and Yao is
now in considerable jeo-pardy.
Claiming that Viet-namese
and Pathet Lao
forces in Laos are deploy-ing
deadly chemicals
against these former Viet-nam
war allies of the Uni-ted
States, she testified
before CongreSs on their
survival. The exhibit in-cludes
Hamilton-Merritt's
black-and-white photo-graphs
of Laotian refugees
in the camps of Thailand.
A companion exhibit or-ganized
by The Science
Museum of Minnesota will
present a photo essay on
the local Hmong commun-ity.
This exhibit of photo-graphs
from the St. Paul
Dispatch/Pioneer Press
and the Minneapolis Star/-
Tribune vividly records
the experiences of Hmong
refugees in the Twin Cit-ies.
Also included is a sev-en-
minute video presenta-tion
on Hmong music and
textile arts in the area.
During the exhibit's
stay, local Hmong artists
will give demonstrations
of needlework, music, food
preparation, and jewelry-making.
The Science Mu-seum's
theatre company
will offet the play "Asian
Tales", a presentation of
Chinese, Hmong and Jap-anese
folktales with tradi-tional
music, dance, and
costume. Textiles made by
members of the local
Hmong community will be
on sale in the museum's
Explore Store.
The exhibit will be at
the museum through July
25, 1982. Exhibit hours are
9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday
through Saturday, and 11
a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday. Ad-mission
to the exhibits is
$3 for adults, $2 for senior
citizens and children 12
and under.

Student aid budget cuts initiate rallies, letter-writing campaigns, lobbying
WASHINGTON, D.C.
(CPS)—"Where last year
there was protest, this year
there's a roar," says an
aide to Rep. Peter Peyser
(D-NY).
He was reflecting in the
aftermath of the influx of
some 7000 college students
into Washington on March
1 to corner representatives,
and senators about the $1.9
billion President Reagan
wants cuts from federal
student aid programs.
The rally—dubbed Na-tional
Student Action Day
by its sponsors—seems to
be just the tip of a vast
nationwide response to the
proposed cuts. As many
as 75 percent of the na-tion's
colleges may be par-
• ticipating in the fight
against the cuts, accord-ing
to one estimate.
In contrast to the 1000
students who showed up
to lobby last year, 7000
lobbied this year.
Two days after that, 250
Pennsylvania students re-turned
to lobby some more.
A Tufts law professor
has organized a national
phone-a-thon by students
in Massachusetts, Florida,
Texas, Nebraska, Califor-nia
and Maine, among
other states. A similar cam-paign
is planned for New
York.
Student governments
and financial aid officers
have staged letter-writing
campaigns at UCLA, South-ern
Cal, Colorado State,
Marquette, Iowa, North-western,
Penn State, and
Northeastern, among
many others.
There have also been
freelance efforts.
University of New Mex-ico
President Dr. William
Davis, for example, recent-ly
wrote the members of
his congressionally delega-tion
a letter containing
thumbnail sketches of 11
UNM students who would
have to leave school if the
cuts were approved.
Northern Michigan Pres-ident
John Jamrich sent
letters to parents to alert
them to the effects of more
state and federal budget
cuts.
At the University of
Michigan, President Har-old
Shapiro organized a
meeting of 40 Michigan
campus presidents, who
in turn issued a resolution
condemning the cuts.
The appeals to parents,
letter-writing campaigns,
the phone calls to alumni
and other activities extend
to "perhaps 70 to 75 per-cent
of the nation's cam-puses,
Aaron estimates.
The messages are usual-ly
the same. University of .
California system Presi-dent
David Saxon predicts
the cuts would have a "cat-astrophic
effect" on col-leges.
Yale President A.
Bartlett Giamatti foresees
"devastation."
As many as five million
students would be affect-ed
by the cuts during the
1983-84 academic year,
with as many as 1.5 mil-lion
being forced from
school, the ACE predicts.
There is some indication
all the uproar is working.
Even conservative Repub-licands
like John Ashbrook
of Ohio and Alphone
D'Amato of New York now
pledge to vote against the
cuts.
Americans for Democra-tic
Action Youth Caucus
Director Charlie King
warns students will active-ly
work against "those can-didates
who favor the Rea-gan
budget cuts in higher
education" in the fall.
Progressive Student Net-work
organizer David
Sapp sees the protest as
nothing less than "a new
vision for a nation that
will not use financial aid
funds for war iri El Salva-dor."
Some cut opponents pre-fer
to work more quietly.
Harvard financial aid Dir-ector
Martha Lyman
shunned participating in
the Washington rally in
favor of working through
the traditional college lob-bying
groups. -
She wanted to avoid the
image of "rich kids crying
wolf," she told the Har-vard
Crimson.
"There is a whole genre
of schools that kind of shy
away from aggressive lob-bying,"
Aaron observes,
though not necessarily
about Harvard. "We had
one school who told us,
'Okay, we'll write a letter,
but we'll only use plain
bond paper. No stationery
with our name on it."
Aaron says some fear
reprisals if they lobby too
vigorously.
"One parent called us
and said she was against
the cuts, but she didn't
want to sign her name be-cause
she's on Social Se-curity,
and she's afraid her
benefits will get cut off."
Aaron replies that lob-bying
"is perfectly legal
and proper." Non-profit in-stitutions
can use up to
ten per cent of their bud-gets
to lobby and still be
within the law's boundar-ies.

Nordquist returns after heart attack
by Dyer Davis
One week before he was
to begin teaching in the de-partment
of music at Beth-el,
Dr. John Nordquist suf-fered
a heart attack, re-quiring
him to rest most of
the term.
"The Bethel faculty dis-played
true Christian love
and friendliness upon our
arrival, especially after my
heart attack," said Nord-quist.
"At present, things
are going nicely."
Nordquist is both pro-fessor
and performer with
Mitchell S. Fromstein,
president of Manpower,
Inc., said, "Most of our
temporary employees are
working mothers who stay
home during the summer
months to care for their
families, so we need stu-dents
to take their place in
offices around the country.
Students who have typed
their own term papers may
have the basic require-ments
for simple office as-signments.
They earn mon-ey
for the next school year
while making business con-tacts
for jobs following
graduation."
Wages for temporary as-extensive
experience (over
500 concerts) as a piano
soloist. Nordquist has also
been a guest artist on
numerous college and
university campuses as
well as performing on both
TV and radio.
Having served under
vice-president and dean
of the college George
Brushaber while at West-mont
College, Nordquist's
arrival at Bethel is due
mainly to the "very posi-tive"
influence of Brushab-er
who first contacted Nord-quist
about Bethel.
Nordquist stated that
signments vary from area
to area, but are competi-tive
with entry-level wages
for permanent jobs. The
exact wage a temporary
employee will earn de-pends
on the work-ready
skills that person has.
Manpower, Inc., is the
world's largest temporary
service firm, annually pro-viding
employment to over
600,000 people through its
more than 900 offices in 31
countries. Office services
account for more than half
of the jobs at which its
temporary work force is
engaged.
teaching private piano les-sons
is much more strenu-ous
than the normal class-room
experience. "To find
the daily strength and ener-gy
to be intense and inspir-ing
is draining," said Nord-quist.
"Howevever, the op-portunity
to work with stu-dents
committed to a Chris-tian
education is most re-warding.
The college level
is an exciting age," Nord-quist
continued, "because
students have dreams,
visions and are idealistic."
Nordquist hopes to per-form
at Bethel, local church-es
and within the com-munity.
"I want to repre-sent
the college in the best
way possible and make
Bethel better known to the
state," said Nordquist.

Tracksters finish fifth in conference championship meet
by John Lilleberg
Although Bethel was not
able to send a full tennis
team to state tournament,
the school was well repre-sented
by the team's top
two players, Kathy Lee
and Sarah Runion. Lee,
seeded third in the num-ber
one singles flight, ful-filled
her seeding by reach-ing
the semi-finals. In the
semi-finals she lost a close
three-set match to the top-seeded
Gustavus player.
Lee maintained, "I was
happy to reach the semi-finals
but it was still dis-appointing
to lose."

by John Clark
The Bethel women's
softball team concluded
its season as it placed sec-ond
in a four-team invita-tional
tournament at
Northwestern on May 8.
Despite out-hitting
Northwestern 11-9, the
Royals went down to de-feat
by a 9-5 score. The
effects of playing 31 inn-ings
in one day caught up
with the Royals and
"many costly errors"
paved the way for North-western.
Bethel won three out of
five games and advanced
to the championship game
as the number-one seed
after completing the round-robin
portion of the tour-nament
in first place.
On May 7 the Royals
split a doubleheader with
Wisconsin-Superior, los-ing
the opening contest 9-
2 and then charging back
to take the second game
15-3. Bethel had 'only five
Gustavus number two. In
doubles, the pair was seed-ed
third. They lived up to
their seeding by reaching
the semi-finals before los-ing,
once again to Gusta-vus.
Coach Paul Reasoner
expressed satisfaction in
the girls' effort when he
said, "It's nice to take only
two players and still do
well in the team stand-ings."
Lee's performance at the
state tournament may have
earned her a spot in the

place in Iowa this week-end.

proven that she can play

with 15 base-on balls to
pile up the runs. Dawn
Modica had the big hit for
the Royals with a base-loaded
triple.
"Mentally we were not
ready and gave the first
game to them," said Coach
Carol Girdler. "We came
back in the second game
and played ball and it was
no contest."
It was unfortunate the
season had to end for Beth-el
as the team had rounded
into form after a slow
start, partly due to the
weather. Bethel, however,
managed to close out the
season with a 11-14 rec-ord.
"We threw some games
away, which was unfor-tunate,"
commented Gird-ler
as she reflected on the
season. "I wish the season
was longer. We were just
beginning to play well."
