Kicker Bethel's forensics team has been competing in speaking and debate tour-naments almost every weekend this semester. Al-though Bethel is a relative-ly small school, the team, a co-curricular extention of the speech-communica-tion department, is doing very well. Last weekend, Nov. 7 - 8, Bethel competed in the first annual Cross Exami-nation Debate Association (CEDA) Invitational at the University of Wisconsin- LaCrosse. Bethel placed sec-ond in the debate tourna-ment, with Beth Neufeld and Mark Publow partic-ipating. Bethel took four of the sixteen teams in the competition. Coach Butch Maltby said that all the teams did very well although many of the people from Bethel had very little debate ex-perience. Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 Bethel competed in the McArthur Invitational at the Univer-sity of Wisconsin-River Falls. This tournament was exclusively individual competition. Bethel's Mike Wiseman took third place in impromptu speaking. In this event the speaker re-ceives an unknown topic and has seven minutes for both preparation and speak-ing on that topic. Rick Kreutzfeldt also qualified for finals in impromptu. Bethel also traveled to Colorado Springs, Oct. 22-25 to compete in the Another new feature is the Santa Lucia Pageant. The Santa Lucia is a Scan-dinavian folk tale tradition of Christmas. The pa-geant will be held at the beginning of the festival. Kerstin Pellmyr, a Swed-ish woman, will portray Santa Lucia. Six women students at Bethel will be maidens in her court. The theme for this year's Pike's Peak Invitational Colorado College, in the first CEDA tournament this year. CEDA distrib-utes the national debate topic at the beginning of the season. Thirty-four schools at-tended this competition with a total of 60 teams. Bethel took one team: Neufeld and Teresa Elia-son. The competition - was both debate and individ-ual events. Bethel quali-fied and competed in the octa-finals, losing to U.S. Air Force Academy in the debate competition. Eliason qualified for se-mi- finals but did not ad-vance. She participated in impromptu and expository speaking. Neufeld parti-cipated in impromptu and see page 3 festival is, "A Glorious Light Shines." This theme will be presented with light (the candlelight procession-al) and color (in- the cos-tumes) by the Festival choir and band. The music in this year's Festival of Christmas will also have a Scandinavian emphasis. Scandinavian songs will be sung as well as traditional carols. The faculty in the music department have been plan-ning the festival since spring. The choirs and the band have been preparing since September. Festival of Christmas will be held December 5,6 and 7, in Bethel's Robert-son Physical Education Center. Tickets are $3.50, in advance only through public affairs. by JoAnn Watkins Receiving credit for a class or becoming exempt from one appeals to most students. Advanced Place-ment tests, College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests and Bethel department tests are three ways that students can receive exemption or cre-dit for courses. The Advanced Place-ment tests from the Col-lege Examination Board schools, he said. Each Bethel department involved decides exemp-tions and credits to be re-ceived. A fee is charged when the rest of the test is taken. CLEP tests are also ta-ken for college credit. Ac-cording to Finlay, primar-ily post-secondary people 'take them. "They take the exams to get credit for their knowledge," said Fin-lay. The tests, developed by the Educational Test-ing Service, can give a stu-dent credit for a basic course. There are two types of CLEP examinations. With a general examination, which contains five basic areas, a student can re-ceive up to six semester credits at Bethel for each exam on which she scores at or above the 50th nation-al percentile. The subject examina-tions measure achievement in specific college course areas. Students may re-ceive three semester cred-its for each examination covering the material equi-valent to one semester's work, providing the score's at or above the 50th per-centile. The department again determines the cre-dit a student may receive for a subject test. A course taken at Bethel is worth four semester cre-dits. The maximum num-ber of CLEP credits a stu-dent can apply to a degree is 30. Credits earned by this type of examination do not affect a grade point aver-age. Transcripts state that the person has successful-ly completed the exam for the designated area and how many credits were accepted. Some departments at Be-thel give tests at the be-ginning of the year to de-termine the appropriate class level for students. Through these tests also, top-scoring students may apply for exemption from a basic level class. To receive credit for a course not available through CLEP or Advanced Placement, the student should contact the depart-ment chairman. Each de-partment is responsible for see page 3 Forensics team excels; overcomes small size Tests earn class credit, exemption Affluence should be used better editorial When we choose Bethel, we choose 'lifestyle' too Some issues allow for exaggerated coverage in the press. Other issues are only minimally suited to long expositions. The lifestyle at Bethel, ideally, should fall into the latter category, but unfortunately, finds itself stretched out of proportion all too many times. Bethel lifestyle is a fact of life on this campus. What-ever grumbling may go on about its demands on "free-dom," there can be no denying that each person who accepts admission onto this campus accepts the pre-cepts of the Bethel lifestyle. The choice belongs to the individual. Last week's editorial dealt with the possibility of students being required to resign the lifestyle statement at the beginning of each semester. The point raised was valid, asking only that we be given the benefit of any possible doubt, and be treated like the young adults we are. Our word is to be valued—give us credit for that. Now the question, "why all the commotion?" We asked for it, and now we've got it. Bethel didn't force us to come here. There are many other fine educational institutions that set forth no such "code" to live by. We have a choice. People on every level at Bethel are confronted with the lifestyle statement when they want to join the community. The statement itself says that the lifestyle is "intended for our community life." The standards are not set up for all Christians. It was drawn up, approved and voted on by the Board of Regents for this commun-ity and none other. Janitors, secretaries, professors, cooks—even the president of the college—sign the statement. Students are not the sole recipients of the confines of the lifestyle. We are a free people. We have the right to question, petition, complain and work for change or adjustment. There may be parts of the lifestyle that seem rigid and tough to live by, especially in today's society. There may be parts that sound old-fashioned. But Bethel does not deny that it is a tradition. It is a tradition that has been determined by to what is "necessary to build a Christian community." Once we are here we are hound. Working to change the lifestyle from within serves only to weaken the foundation on which the community has been building for many years. We are not in a position to tear down a tradition. We have asked that our word be valued, trusted and respected. Bethel asks that we value, trust, respect and uphold its tradition. 0 0 ari roman copy editor Art Gibbens, production editor nns Hawkins, business tf#y Sutton, editorial assis rta, cartoonis t *mt. Page 2 letters Anderson works toward unity An open letter to John B. Anderson Dear John: Congratulations on stick-ing to your guns right through to the end. Those who said, "He'll give up," are whistling a different tune. Two themes run through the deep structures of Rea-gan rhetoric. One of them, the "horizontal theme," fo-cuses on the past-present of our nation and says, "the best future is one in which life is as much like the mythologized past as possible." The other, the "vertical theme," focuses on the na-tion and its boundaries and says, "the best condition is one in which the rest of the human community serves our national pur-poses." Should this analysis be borne out in a Reagan ad-ministration oriented to na-tional past, not global fu-ture, and should the pre-sent technological gap be-tween ourselves and the under-developed become a more critical global issue, and should our present un-fair advantage in exploit-ing the earth's resources be called into question in the court of world opinion, you and Jerry Brown may •find yourselves in a fight to the finish between Rea-gan on the right and Mon-dale/ Kennedy on the left. If you should decide to continue your effort to-ward national unity, in a third party or under ano-ther umbrella, you must take a case for a global future in which the United States cooperates with Westlund quits senate due to little time, drive Dear Editor: In the Oct. 31 issue of the Clarion your publica-tion gave two reasons for my resignation from sen-ate. I'd just like to clarify a misunderstanding of my reasons. I do not feel that there is less motivation in senate this year than last year. A few people could possibly use more motivation, but see page 3 other nations to close the technological gap and man-age global resources. There is no future but a global one. There is no jus-tification for maintaining or increasing the techno-logical gap. There is no moral right to use our tech-nological competence to consume more than our fair share of the earth's resources. I suggest that this case is more broadly accepta-ble on a global and nation-al scale and more authen-tically Christian and broad-ly humanitarian than the case for a national future that competes for the world's limited resources with a gigantic technolog-ical head start. More than any of the other voices heard in the campaign just ended, yours seemed to be reaching for just such a case. I wish you well in formulating it, articulating it, sharing it and defending it. I pledge my continued support. Your friend, Donald N. Larson Dear Editor, One aspect of Bethel per-iodically nauseates me: the the misused affluence of our community. A lot of money is repre-sented at Bethel, which itself is not wrong. The nauseating part is that this money is spent, I think, on the over-extravagant ma-terial things. Walking past the circle parking lot I see Cadillacs, foreign sports cars, vans— all sorts of 1980-model cars. Walking into class I see leather coats, designer jeans, expensive watches and jewelry. Walking through the PE building I see Nikes, Pu-mas, name-brand racquet-ball racquets and balls and special carrying bags for them. In winter, famous-name skis and poles, ski boots and ski outfits abound. Granted, finances are "tight" for some at Bethel. But the point is, shouldn't we all (students, faculty, administrators) spend/use our money more "wisely"? Use it less on new cars and expensive clothes and name-brand sports equip-ment and more on people who need food, medical care and shelter? "Stewardship" grates on most everyone's nerves. We all sit through ser-mons, chapels and prayer-and- shares about it. Per-haps we should try it in-stead of talking about it. Instead of buying that new improved racquetball rac-quet or that cashmere sweater, we should sent the money to -World Vis-ion, CARE or some other charity. L.L.

I hope that their words of wisdom will not go unnoticed by the Bethel community. Thanks, John Bower by JoAnn Watkins "They want us to come," stressed Paul Nethercott upon his return from the International Student Con-sultation on Frontier Mis-sions. He was referring to the countries represented at the consultation that are primarily unreach-ed by Christian ministries. The consultation, held in Edinburgh, Scotland, was the first time that non- Western and Western mission board leaders came together. The watch-word for the consultation was "A church for every people by the year 2000." "There are many strong indigenous national mis-sion boards in places like currently working on a corn-mentary on the pastoral epistles for the "New In-ternational Greek Testa-ment Commentary" series. Living in St. Louis, Mis-souri, Knight works as an educator and minister of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Evangelical Syn-od. His academic back-ground includes an A.D. from Davidson College in 1953. He later attended Westminster Theological Forensics from page 1 original oratory. Bethel tied for 29th place in this competition. That same weekend Phil-ip Rohier took six stu-dents to the Twin Cities Forensics League compe-tition. Rohier said most of these students in this com-petition had little or no experience beforehand. "In my analysis of the tour-nament we did very well. We placed fourth and for some of these people it was their first experience. They said on the way home they felt they had learned something about them-selves." Seventeen schools par-ticipated in this tourna-ment. According to Rohier, "Bethel is viewed as a strong contender in every tournament we attend." The Omaha Invitational Individual Events Tourna-ment at the University of Nebraska was Bethel's chal-lenge for Oct. 16-18. In this competition. Bethel placed seventh overall, India and Indonesia," said Nethercott, a '79 Bethel graduate. These countries are open to mission work he said. The goal of the consul-tation was "to seethe in-digenous mission socie-ties work along with the Western mission societies in expanding these fronti-ers and expanding the vis-ion," said Nethercott. The focus on frontier missions refers to places without missionaries and church-es. Nethercott said the con-sultation was the begin-ning of a student move-ment similar to that of the 1920's and 30's. He said the consultation was call-ed specifically to mobilize Seminary of Philadelphia where he received a B.D. and a Th. M. In 1968 Knight obtained a Th.D. from Free University of Amsterdam, The Nether-lands. Knight was ordained to the ministry in 1961. In 1963 he served as visiting professor at the Near East School of Archaeology, Jeru-salem. Knight is married and has five children. with 20 schools from eight states competing. Neufeld took second place in impromptu, reach-ed finals in original ora-tory and qualified for semi-finals in prose interpreta-tion. Wiseman qualified for finals in impromptu and rhetorical criticism. Elia-son qualified for finals in expository speaking. Laura Stratton and Linda Nylen also participated. Bethel placed sixth over-all in the Lyle C. Huseby Invitational Tournament held Oct. 3-4 at Far-go, N.D. Eighteen schools participated in this tour-nament. Publow took fifth place in impromptu. Neu-feld came in first in ex-temporaneous speaking and second in impromptu. Three other students par-ticipated. Maltby said Bethel con-sistently places in the top 10, with a relatively small squad of 5-7 students. Many schools' teams are larger, 10-15 students. Placement is based on points earned by individ-ual participants. Bethel students usually compete the young people, since they obviously have the highest potential. About nine students at the consultation represent-ing the different areas of the world met after much prayer, said Nethercott. They developed this pledge: "By the grace of God, and for His glory, I commit my entire life to obeying His commission of Matt. 28:18- 20wherever and however He leads me, giving prior-ity to the peoples current-ly beyond the reach of the Gospel (Rom. 15:20-21). I will also endeavor to im-part this vision to others." Exposure to the world situation concerning fron-tier missions and an open-ness to God's plan are what Nethercott stated as the aims of the pledge. "I thought it was impor-tant that if I went, I (would) come to Bethel to share missions in general and Edinburgh in particu-lar," said Nethercott. "We need thousands of people at home praying and financ-ing. This is every bit as important as someone ac-tually going. "Let's not look for Christ to return," Nethercott said, "until all nations and all peoples have heard of Christ." in three events. Maltby said, "It helps earn points and prepare for future pen-tathalon meets where each participant competes in five events." The next competition will be at Illinois State University, where Bethel will compete against Whea-ton. Last year Wheaton was fifth in the country. "That tournament will de-termine Bethel's standing in the midwest," said Malt-by. Credit from page 1 setting up an acceptable score for exemption. Ac-cording to Dwight Jessup, academic administration director, it is fairly unus-ual for a student to receive credit this way. "A student has the right to challenge any course in the curriculum," said Fin-lay. "They are not going to come chasing after you," said one student who quali-fied for exemption. "If you're interested you have to find one."

In fact, it is amazing the number of students that are so knowledgeable about art. After all, its not a small matter to call an art piece "junk," a word often spoken in reference to the sculp-tures and other words of abstract art that enhance the campus. After a lengthy three-second analysis, "junk," or some other signal of disgust, is tossed out to indicate that the art work doesn't contain any recognizable object. Ironically, most people think they understand an artwork if they can recognize something in it; however, a good representational piece is much more than first impressions. Few people seem to recognize the fact that abstract art and representational art deal with the same forms, shapes, composition and ideas; they just express them differently. A correct analogy would be the relation of the English language to the Spanish language. In comparison, abstraction and representation are merely two visual languages. On the side, I should also note that of the two, abstract art is the "honest" one; in other words, the literal one. After all, part of the purpose of realism is to fool the viewer into thinking that the artwork is real. Abstract- art simply recognizes that the medium should be a two-dimensional reality and not a three-dimen-sional illusion. To even begin to understand abstract art, it must be understood that it deals with a reality that is not of the physical world. The language of abstract art is that of color, shape, texture, stroke, lines, value, intensity, etc... Representational art also has these aspects, but an abstraction distills them; it isolates these elements and creates a different world. Naturally the question arises as to how this different language can be understood. To put it simply: it takes time. A piece of representational or abstract art cannot be understood in a glance. Don't misunderstand me; all art does not have a meaning. Some art pieces are beautiful visual games where the artist leads the viewer's eyes around and through colors and shapes solely for pleasure. Other artworks can be painful, spiritual struggles that are ripped out of the artist's heart and placed self-conscious-ly on a canvas or pedestal. In such manner the viewer must struggle with art, and this is its beauty: to dis-cover the mystery, to unravel the construction, to see something in a new way, to find new meaning or simply to enjoy the intricacy of color or shape. (Consider this in comparison to much of "Christian art," where a stale idea is stated in a safe, conventional way so as to he understood through an economical expenditure of a few seconds! It is sad, though, to consider the way in which much of "Christian art" has sold out to the masses, bowing to the demands for an easy-understand-easy-forget art. The viewer is not to be blamed. It is just that our society conditions us to a transient and shallow art, where all that is needed is a quick glance. A few seconds of visual contact is all this distortion of art can handle, and that is because there is nothing else to it. It's shallowness can be comprehended in a mere glimpse, and then it can be discarded. Another word commonly used for things that are discarded is... junk.

Page 5 Future studies course to help students plan From Our compiled by Jay Russell Bill Johnson will team teach a futures course next spring. by Shari Goddard What would Christians do if a drug company made a safe abortion pill? How far should we allow gene-tic management to go? How should we plan our lives with the depletion of nat-ural resources? These are a few of the issues a new class at Bethel will attempt to prepare students for in the future. Team-taught by Bill John-son of the political science department and David Lee, associate professor of speech-communication, "Thinking in the Future Tense" will explore the fu-ture. Ironically, the class it-self is a new innovation. Open to juniors and sen-iors, it will fit in as a bal-ance course. Its 300-level standing counts towards the 15 upper-level courses required for most students' graduation. Johnson hopes to draw together students from all concentrations. He said Christians too often ignore planning for the future. They are either the "Hal Lindsays with their view of the future beginning with the second coming," or they fatalistically leave all planning in the Lord's hands. Johnson said Christians are responsible for the world until the Lord re-turns. The two men will "gen-uinely team-teach." Each will take part in all class sessions and look on the class as a part of their own learning. Johnson said that will also allow students to see the teachers arguing. They hope to encourage students to challenge oth-ers' ideas. The class is limited to upperclassmen because, ac-cording to Johnson, they are more experienced in asking questions and prob-ing for answers. by Naomi Ludeman Student Senate Com-munication Board will eval-uate the source of KABY's budget and make a recom-mendation Tuesday night to the student senate. Presently, KABY's funds originate with the senate. The speech-communication department is the source under discussion for juris-diction of the station's bud-get. ed that the construction of the mini-grocery store should be finished today. Senate members suggest-ed items of food to be sold in the store. The food var-ied from salt, sugar and flour to pancake mixes with syrup. Charlie Retts, dean of men and advisor to the student senate, said if the mini-store goes well and runs efficiently it could grow to be "big times" and possibly a co-op as sev-eral other colleges have. Retts commended the sen-ate members for the num-ber of hours already put into PROJECT: INSIDE-OUT. He reminded the sen-ators of the commitment the project requires for its success. The time of "Rocky," to-night's first fund-raiser for the project, has been changed to 8:30 p.m. ra-ther than 10 p.m. reported Dave Lucas, student body president. IM bowling begins first competition From the October 25, 1968 issue. Nixon winner. College editors from the Associated Collegiate Press predicted Richard Nixon would win the 1968 presi-dential election. Seven per cent of the nation's editors were sur-veyed by the school of journalism and mass com-munication at the Univer-sity of Minnesota. Of the seven per cent, 91 per cent predicted Nixon would win the presidential race, al-though only 50 per cent said they would vote for him. Hubert Humphrey re-ceived 37 per cent of the vote, while George Wal-lace and Dick Gregory re-ceived one-and-a-half per cent each. Ten per cent were undecided. Marion James Hall. Junior Ralph Sheppard presented a petition with the names of more than 450 Bethel students to Vir-gil Olson, dean of the col-lege. The petition requested that the new dorm on new campus (now Nelson res-idence), be named Marion James Hall. Sheppard spearheaded the drive for the petition, which honored "our de-parted friend, Marion James" (a student). Dean Olson "cautioned that 'we must take a com-posite look at the new cam-pus before naming parts.' He pointed out that the possibility of carrying over names from the present campus must be examined, and that perhaps the pol-icy of naming buildings after people needs to be carefully thought through." IM bowling. Bethel's first intramural bowling competition began in the fall of 1968, with New Dorm taking the cham-pionship. They beat their opponent with a score of 2218 to 1753, in team corn-petition. In the individual tour-nament, student Cal Par-ent won with a •score of 520 for three games. Steve Smith took second with a score of 509.

"We will be tough at all weights but our lack of depth at the upper weights could hurt us," said Klos-treich. One of the team's goals for this year is to finish near the top of the confer-ence. "Augsburg and St. Thomas will be the best teams in the conference this year, followed by us and Concordia. We could finish as high as third or fourth," added Klostreich.

Two overdue papers claw my mind. The lure to loaf has lost its spell. I'm now bound by time to my wooden nook. I glance at the clock. Toxic smells from this cheap ink pen nauseate me. An introduction paragraph lacking a thesis gets shoved into the corner. My pen follows. Sweaty palms coast down my thighs. Tomorrow's reading assignment offers a nice retreat. Pages 64-119. By page 66 I predict the rest to be dry. Scanning speed: on. Key words and phrases flash like city neons. Higher page numbers make me smile. Page 71, neck cramps. Book tilts to 45 degrees. I glance at the clock. Time lapse. The valley between my thumb and index finger nestles up under my lower lip. Launching years ahead I discover myself sitting at an outdoor cafe in France. Gentle breeze. Mellow music. Suddenly I spy an enchanting mate sitting alone at a distant table. My heart throbs. Her eyes catch mine. An external ten-second stare melts everything within me. Like taking a cue in a play, I leave my seat and sit at her table. Silence reigns. Our eyes speak infinitely more eloquent than words could attempt. Like magnets in slow motion we near each other's lips for a kiss. What bliss. What? Page 75. The cold light and the perpetual drone of the library heavens slap me back to reality. I glance at the clock. "Gotta go soon," I figure, "but gotta finish this read-ing. Teacher might ask me a question. Hope not. Yet I ought to get this stuff down. Teacher won't like me so much if I don't. Gotta get this stuff down. I master the last page of the two chapters required. "Got it down. Gotta go." Bounding down the gym steps I wave the bus to a halt. Ah, an empty seat. Bit cold. Feels good. Across the frosted window my middle finger melts an aimless path. The clear parts cloud as my breath rolls out. I notice that I've traced something like a dollar sign. "Money," I say to myself as if to one beside me. "That's right. Three-quarters of my education is paid by loans. So where am I at? I'm studying to get good grades to get a good degree to get a good enough job to pay off my loans!" Another finger substitutes in for doodling. "I feel locked into a cycle I can't escape. I can't even take three courses, a healthy amount, without paying for four. This full load I got makes all my studies suffer. It makes me suffer. I'm sick of money. I set my alarm for an hour earlier. Ahh, my bed. Best fix I got to escape reality. And it's free.

FOR ALL YOUR SIGNING NEEDS Colored Poster Paper by the Foot 6c per foot — 8 Colors To Choose From at BETHEL BOOKSTORE Page 8 Healy orphanage shelters needy Filipino children by Beth Stien Corpus Christe is a pio-neer venture in missions. Better known to the Bethel community as the "Healy orphanage," this shelter home for Filipino children began in 1979 with a group of seven people who felt a special burden for the needy children of Cebu City, Cebu Island. The Healys make it clear, however, that Corpus Christe is not "their" or-phanage. "The Filipino chil-dren are the name of the game," said Jerry Healy, professor in the English department at Bethel. "The staff at Corpus Christe does not wish to be the highlight of the operation, what's important are the kids," he said. Yet the Healy family is closely tied to the work at Corpus Christe. Healy's son Paul, a Bethel gradu-ate, and daughter-in-law Marlys are among the seven who pioneered this unique mission. Jerr. serves as chairman of the board of directors for the DelAdwalwan Founda-tion, a non-profit, fund-raising organization whose job is to raise mon-ey for and support the work at Corpus Christe. Jerry's wife, Millie, their daughter Liz (also a Bethel graduate) and their son Dave are all on the board of directors. Dave, an in-structor in the English de-partment, and his wife Nancy edit the bi-monthly newsletter which DelAd-walwan sends to its sup-porters. The prime focus of this mission, however, is in Ce-bu City. The seven-mem-ber staff lives in one four-bedroom house and at the present time cares for four children. These children range in age from a few days to seven years, and require 24-hour care. A child stays at the shel-ter home anywhere from one to eight months. "Al-most all the children they get are sick and usually by Debbie Anderson Two or three students almost always wait out-side Scott Wallace's office door, with another stu-dent inside his office. Ear-ly in the semester, Wallace told his accounting class, "If you have trouble with your accounting problems or anything else, come to my office. That's why I have office hours. And I mean that." When students enter Wallace's office, they see two items that Wallace invariably points out. One is a poster that says, "If it was easy, anyone could do it." The other is a Phila-delphia Phillies baseball cap. Wallace is originally from Philadelphia, which explains his non-Minne-sota accent. It also ex-plains why he brought his red Phillies cap to class and hung it over the lamp of the overhead projector as if it were a Phillies mascot. Wallace is good-natured and likes to tease his stu-dent s (always with a smile on his face) about almost anything—whe-ther they are Kansas City Royals fans or whether they should receive extra points for bringing him cof-fee in his morning classes. That's his way of showing that he cares about his students. And even though each of his Ac-counting I classes number have just been hospital-ized," said Jerry Healy. "They typically come mal-nourished, with tubercu-losis or skabies (a skin disease), and the home gives them medical treat-ment," he said. over 50 students, he knew each class member by name after the first few weeks of the semester. Wallace is a hard work-er, which explains the reason for the poster in his office. He not only is a full-time teacher, but he is also a full-time owner of an accounting firm—the W. Scott Wallace account-ing firm. As if that were not enough, he teaches a night course for certified life underwriters (specia-lized insurance people). He is also married and a father of two daughters, one of whom is a fresh-man at Bethel. Three times a week Wal-lace plays racquetball at 5:45—in the morning! This early hour is not unusual After their stay at Cor-pus Christe, some children are adopted, some are re-turned to their parents and some are sent to other in-stitutions. Corpus Christe has an-other ministry in addition to him because he is out of bed every day at 5 a.m. Wallace says of his sche-dule, "I know I am busy. But if I had extra time, I'd waste it." Wallace received his B.S. degree in economics from Franklin Marshall College in Lancaster, Penn-sylvania, where he also played varsity football for four years. He was certi-fied as a certified public accountant and moved from Philadelphia to Del-aware to work as an ac-countant. After only five years, Wallace became a pail net' in the accounting firm. This was also the time he rededicated his life to the Lord. Soon after, he began to the shelter home. The staff ministers to the chil-dren and mothers in sev-eral "squatters' villages" within the city. This in-volves getting medical see page 10 to look for full-time Chris-tian work where he could use his accounting skills. It wasn't until 1976 that Wallace received a phone call from a Christian bus-inessman in Denver, Colo-rado. He wanted Wallace to come to Minnesota to help establish an office in St. Paul. Wallace came and two years later, bought out the company he now owns. Wallace said that last year he was led by the Lad and coaxed by Steve Simpson to teach at Be-thel. He said that he likes teaching at Bethel and en-joys the fellowship he has with both students and faculty. His biggest sur-prise about Bohol how-ever, is I he LW: He rails it Grand Central Station. As a teacher, Wallace said he has a "bigger com-mitment to teaching than a non-Christian in a secu-lar school • because I an serving the Lord. I have to do the best I can do."

If Chris-tian lyrics are added to it, they are incongruous, be-cause the music conveys one message and the words another." But Leafblad says the church should gen-erate new music of its own, and laments the fact that most of the material in our hymnals was written be-fore the twentieth century. Leafblad's wife, June, is also a Bethel graduate. They have two children, twins, Stewart and Steph-anie, nine. Leafblad said he will have to go back to Minne-sota- types of recreation. "In California I was a beach bum, a desert rat, and I loved the mountains," he said. But he is looking for-ward to fishing and water skiing here in his native state, when his busy sche-dule and the season per-mit.

Con-ceptual art deals with ideas and concepts unlike paintings, sculptures, or other physical forms of art. Cooper makes the space itself a piece of art by placing objects in it to give a different visual ef-fect to each person who sees it. In addition to his dis-play, Cooper will be work-ing in December with cho-reographer Sage Cowles to produce a show entitled "Shuffle and Click". Cowles' job will be to fill the space created by Coo-per with bodies. She will randomly select viewers from the audience to come down and with guidance enter into the show. The title of "Shuffle and Click" comes from the six slide projectors which throughout the show will be flashing various pic-tures that are supposed to give the audience a float-ing effect. The production is being made possible by a $4,000 grant from the Jerome Foun-da lion to the, general school fund. The project's total cost will amount to $7,245 of which Bethel will have to pay $3,245. There will be showings on Dec. 8, at 7 and 8:30 p.m. The show will then travel to the Walker Art Center followed by a tour of the state. Cooper is a member of the Glen Hanson Art Gal-lery in Minneapolis. He received his master's of Fine Arts in sculpture from Washington University in SI. Louis, Missouri in 1973. He was also an instructor al the Minneapolis College Of Art and Design in 1979. by Jerry Manus Bruce Leafblad, a former Bethel student, after sev-eral years absence, has re-turned as a professor. Leafblad graduated from Bethel College in 1962, ma-joring in music and spe-cializing in voice. He grad-uated from Bethel semin-ary in 1966. In 1979 Ledblad was chosen Bethel Alumnus of the Year, an award deter-mined on the basis of the student's life after gradua-tion. Leafblad spent most of his years since his gradua-tion as one of the pastors at Lake Avenue Con-gregational Church in Pasa-dena, California. He was in charge of all music min-istries for the large church, a job allowing little time for singing, but requiring much conducting. Leafblad also earned a doctorate in church music at the University of Sou-thern California. A couple of years ago Leafblad began feeling that his ministry at the Lake Avenue church was com-ing to an end. Soon after that he received requests from six different colleges offering him teaching posi-tions, one of them Bethel. Leafblad decided God wanted him at Bethel. He is now an associate pro-fessor of church music and worship. Leafblad says the department is breaking new ground, because this is the only church music program in the country which involves both a col-lege and a seminary. Leafblad is excited about his work and certain that this is where God wants him. He likes his students and feels he communicates well with them. The most striking change in Bethel for Leafblad since he was a student here is the way it has grown. "The college used to have only about 500 students. Now there are almost that many in the seminary," he said. Leafblad sees a "freshness and openness" and a "great-er zeal to integrate faith and learning" than when he attended in the early '60s. He said there is "more diversity in students," a "greater blend, which en-riches life at Bethel." Leafblad was asked what he thinks about us-ing pop or rock style music for conveying a gospel mes-by Sue Fahrenkamp Susan Ogden-Malouf, new assistant professor of theatre arts, joined. the Bethel theatre arts staff after finishing her docto-rate at Northwestern Uni-versity in theatre arts last August. Ogden-Ma-louf was attracted to Bethel because it is a Christian College. She en-joys the Christian atmos-phere and the interaction the students have with the faculty. Ogden-Malouf set a goal to help students at Bethel learn. She would also like to assist the development of Christian theatre. A particular interest is the exploration. of ritual or worship theatre.' She en-joys theatre because, "It is a primary experience. It is very powerful." Ogden-Malouf began act-ing as a senior in high school. "I fell in love with it," she reminisced. She received a lot of encour-agement from instructors. While attending Stanford University, she also did some acting. After directing a dorm play her sophomore year, Ogden-Malouf discovered her talent for directing. Without a great deal of acting experience, she be-gan to direct more plays throughout college. After graduating from Stanford, Ogden-Malouf at-tended Northwestern Uni-versity, earning her mas-ter's degree and doctorate in theatre arts. While at Northwestern, she took' many directing classes. The highlight of Ogden- Malouf's college career in directing was her senior year at Stanford. An or-ganization called Ram's Head put on an annual musical. The organization eventually died out. Og-den- Malouf resurrected the organization and di-rected the musical. Ogden-Malouf teaches creative performance, theatre history, and words and ideas. During the spring, she will direct "The Madwoman of Chail-lot," a satire on capitalism. Ogden-Malouf is mar-ried to Jeff Ogden, part time instructor of account-ing at Bethel.

Eight members of last year's faculty have moved to new situations this year-some across the country, or across the state, across town, or just across cam-pus. Two former faculty mem-bers have switched to pas-toral roles. John Piper, for-merly an associate profes- Hodgson specializes in tricks that are easy to trans-port. He has used assist-ants and lots of props, but found it to be impractical. Hodgson practices every effect until he is comfor-table with it. Then he thinks about how it can be performed creatively. He sor in biblical studies, is now senior pastor at Beth-lehem Baptist Church, Mpls. Philip Sackett, former associate professor of chem-istry, has taken a church in Milaca, Minn. He is offi-cially on a one-year leave of absence, "trying to de-termine if the Lord is lead-ing him to be a pastor or a professor," said Dean George Brushaber. ,Wayne Fri tchie, who was an instructor in music, has gone into business in the Twin Cities area. also adapts the tricks to the audience and the set-ting. Hodgson said he takes magic lighter that some other magicians. He would like to perform for groups that need him. "I just want to be used," he said smil-ing. Two of last year's facul-ty are over-the-hill—at the seminary. Robert Stein, for-mer professor of biblical st udies, and John Sailha-mer, once an assistant pro-fessor in biblical studies, now teach at the semin-ary. Da vid Bausch and Charles "Chub" Reynolds now hold teaching positions in our schools. Rausch, for-mer assistant professor in history and geography, now teaches in Ashland care for the children, bring-ing them food and cloth-ing and instructing moth-ers how to better care for their children. Jerry and Millie Healy went to Cebu City for a month this past summer to visit the home and see Corpus Christe in action. Both came away "thorough-ly convinced of the need for the work," he said. Corpus Christe is pre-sently below the eight-chil-dren capacity. Ideally, the mission would like to get more children. They own nine acres of land south of Cebu City, as well as the house, and have future plans to build on the prop-erty. They would keep the house in Cebu as quaran-tine quarters, but need 12- 15 children before such an operation can take place. Ruth Oliver, a junior at Bethel, went to Corpus Christe under SMP this summer. She was impressed by the boldness of these young people to venture out on their own and begin such a unique ministry. "I am really impressed with the lifestyle these people have taken on," said Oli-ver. "They have set up a new system and ministry in another culture. This is very difficult to start from scratch, as they have done. They've moved out in such faith, and are doing an excellent job." Oliver became familiar with the home through Central Baptist Church, where the Healys attend. When she found out Cor-pus Christe had a need for extra help this summer, she took the opportunity to go under SMP. "The orphanage opened my eyes to a type of ser-vice ministry that a lot of people, including myself, don't realize exists," said Oliver. Theological Seminary in Ohio. Reynolds, former as-sistant professor in physi-cal education and head foot-ball coach is teaching and coaching in Northwestern College in Roseville. The only faculty mem-ber to retire last year was Junet Runbeck, professor in education. Two more faculty members plan to retire after this semester: Olaf Olsen, professor in history; and C. Howard Smith, professor in music. An elementary educa-tion major, Oliver feels a strong pull to return next summer and focus on edu-cation. She foresees a move there permanently after graduation. "I'd like to teach in a Christian or private school for Filipino children. They have such a great need, materially as well as spiritually," she said. She sees the focus on practical application of ag-riculture programs and nu-trition important to such teaching. Bethel students can do many things to involve themselves in the Corpus Christe ministry: -Receive the newsletter, which comes every other month. Read it and stay informed. -Support the mission through letters. Write the staff and encourage them in their work. "Writing let-ters is a great support," said Oliver. "Write and let them know of the interest here in their work." -Tell others about the work at Corpus Christe. -Support the mission financially. -Help send out the news-letter. Del Adlawan needs three or four people to help with distribution. -Pray for the staff's pa-tience and endurance. -Anyone interested in the work at Corpus Christe can contact Jerry or Dave Healy or Ruth Oliver.

The added courses would help to "keep and prepare s I uden s to be competitive in the job market." by Sue Fahrenkamp It's magical, it's myste-rious, and yet, it's a minis-try. Magician Joel Hodg-son uses his talent for ma-gic as "a vehicle for spread-ing the gospel." Hodgson, a junior at Be-thel College, performs ma-gic as a ministry. When on stage, he allows the aud-ience to feel comfortable with his humor and his tricks. Then he shares something pertinent. At the end of his show, he will share his testimony. Hodgson, now 20, began his career in seventh grade. He began as a ventrilo-quist, after graduating from a 30-lesson course. "I did it for attention," he admitted. After seventh grade, Hodgson met a friend at Bible camp who introduced him to magic. He imme-diately was intrigued by the fun and challenge of it. The friend put Hodgson in touch with a magician's club. In eighth grade, Hodg-son started doing birthday party shows that combined ventriloquism and magic. While he was in high school, demand had grown to one or more shows a week. Hodgson has performed at banquets, talent shows and spent two summers doing magic at a local res-taurant. Hodgson did a Christmas special twice for local television in Green Bay, Wisc., where he grew up. He still does shows while in college. He has performed at Christian cof-feeshops and fronted for some. Christian rock and roll bands. Hodgson wants his aud-ience to know that the ma-gic performed is just sim-ple tricks.

Some people wondered how long it would take Head Coach George Palke to rejuvenate the basket-ball program at Bethel. There was no denying he had a good nucleus to work with in his first year as the Royal mentor. At guard, seniors Dave Blan-chard and Torn Weko re-turned from the year be-fore. Wingmen Gary and Greg Edlund transferred in from a junior college in California. Veterans Rey Miller and Scott Wilson solidified the post posi-tion. Add Jason Velgers-dyk, the 6'-7" freshman from Edina and you can see why Bethel fans were smiling. The season started out in normal fashion as the Royals buried the alumni and then topped Concordia- St. Paul for Coach Palke's debut victory. It looked like the beginning of a ser-ies but the Royals blew a 17-point lead in the next game at Superior, losing 87-86. The team then went out west for two games, beat-ing Rocky Mountain Col-lege after losing to Eastern Montana. The Royals then returned home and whip-by Brad Nauman Bethel wrestling coach Dave Klostreich said that despite his team's youth and inexperience, it should do fairly well and could place as high as third in the MIAC conference. The team is led this year by co-captains Greg Wid-mer and Greg Heinsch and veterans Russ Reynolds and Mike Anderson. Following is a weight-by- weight preview of the 1980-81 Royal Wrestling team: 118—The battle for this spot will be between fresh-men Don Lint from Cadil-lac, Mich., and Sean Joyce of St. Paul, Minn. 126—Sophomore Russ Reynolds, who placed fourth in the conference last year at 118, is moving up to 126 this year. He will be challenging incumbent ped St. Thomas in the con-ference opener 89-70. Five Bethel players hit double figures, a feat that would happen several times dur-ing the season. Next stop for the cagers was Chicago and the Trin-ity tournament. The Roy-als took home the first-place hardware with easy victories over Northwest-ern and. Trinity. Skeptics were starting to believe as the Royals record went to 5-2. The next five games, however, probably made them doubt. Crippled with injuries, the Royals beat only St. Olaf at the Augs-burg invitational. They lost to Northwestern and St. Thomas, both of whom they had already defeated soundly. The Royal five then re-sumed the long conference haul against Augsburg and St. John's. Playing at home against the Auggies, the slumping Royals looked tight, losing 73-45. It was the same story at Collegeville as their rec-ord dropped to 6-6 with the 81-60 defeat. And then it happened. As if they suddenly real-ized their potential, the Royals came on like gang-busters. The first victim was Macalester. Scoring 65 points in the first half, the Royals decimated the Scots 114-84. Excitement Kirk Walters, a sophomore from Iowa City, Iowa.

Fired up by big Steve "Hoss" Carrigan and the rest of the team, during the unique Sweet Georgia Brown warmup, the fans began packing out the Rob-ertson P.E. Center. On the road Royal fans outdrew at least three other schools. As the blue and gold rolled on, names and num-bers became blurred. St. Mary's by nine, St. Olaf by six, Hamline, Concor-dia, Gustavus in overtime. Suddenly, the Royals found themselves in a chase for the playoffs. If they could win their next two games they would be in second place in the MIAC. Alas, it was not to be. Perhaps looking ahead to the big match-up against St. John's, the Beth-el cagers were upset by St. Thomas 73-66. To make matters worse, after lead-ing the Johnnies most of the way, center John Eisen-schenk hit an 18-footer with two seconds left stunning the Royal fans with the 63-61 defeat. After that crushing loss with play-off hopes almost certainly dashed, the team could have given up. They did not. The best was yet to come.

The program had arrived. Five more victories came in a row before Gustavus ended Bethel's season with a 79-75 loss. The team played a little flat against the Gusties, possibly be-cause they had just found out that, win or lose, they did not have a playoff invi-tation. The long, exciting sea-son had finally ended. The tale of the tape read: 18-9 overall record, 13-5 and third place in the confer-ence (12 wins of their last 15 games), 12 new team records, including most wins, and 10 new individ-ual records.

"There's a lot of good, young talent. There's a depth that we haven't had in the past." There is a full junior var-sity this season so there will be "good playing time," says LaRock. "We're looking to run a faster game....We're work-ing on the defense. We will need to learn to read the defense and play them," said LaRock.

"One of my goals was to be a trainer at the collegiate level, and I'm really enjoying my-self," said Dutton. Dutton also hopes to im-plement a complete stu-dent trainer program. He currently has two students, Brad Kroulik and Deb Sension, working with him but he would like to get more students involved. "Brad and Deb really do a good job," said Dutton. "I would like to get more student trainers involved and really get a good pro-gram going," he continued. Dutton earned his bach-elor's degree from Eastern Washington University where he majored in phys-ical education, with an ath-letic training emphasis. He went on to South Dakota State University where he received his mas-ter's degree. While study-ing at South Dakota State, he served as graduate as-sistant trainer and assist-ant basketball coach. Dutton learned of the Bethel opening from the head trainer at SDSU. To him this meant a chance to fulfill his goal of being a full-time trainer on the col-legiate level. He applied and was offered the job. Dutton is very impressed with the Bethel commun-ity. "There is more empha-sis on Christianity and more commitment to the Lord than I expected," said Dutton. by Phil Almeroth The Royals gridders end-ed their season on a sour note last Saturday with a 42-23 loss to Augsburg. The Auggies scored early and often, and a late rally by Bethel was not enough to catch them. The Auggies took the advantage on the first play of the game, returning the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown. The Roy-als could not move the ball on offense and had to punt. Aided by a 34-yard run, the Auggies moved in to score, the last yard corn-ing on a quarterback sneak by Steve Yeazle, giving Augsburg a 14-0 lead. In the second quarter, the Auggies scored again to take a 21-0 lead 'before Bethel finally got on the scoreboard. The big play in the Bethel drive was a 65-yard run by Brad Flater, bringing the ball down to the 15-yard line. Jim An-erstrom threw a pass to Pete Kramka in the end zone but the play was nul-lified by a penalty against the Royals. Anderstrom was sacked on the next play, and it looked like the Royals were out of scoring range. But a screen to Fla ter brought, the ball back to the 10-yard line. On fourth down, Anderstrom hit Ken Cooper for a touchdown to bring the score to 21-7. The Auggies brought the ball downfield again, aid-ed by a pass-interference penalty against the Roy-als. A four-yard touch-down run gave Augsburg a 28-7 halftime lead. The Royals missed a good scoring opportunity early in the second half. Doug Hill ran for 40 yards down to the Augsburg 19- yard line. But Anderstrom's fourth down pass to Kram-ka was deflected at the' five-yard line. The Auggies went down the field again, the big plays being two passes: one for 15 and one for 20 yards. Halfback Joe Roth scored his third touchdown of the game, lifting the Auggies' lead to 35-7. Augs-burg upped their score to 42-7 on a three-yard run by Yeazle after the Aug-gies had used a fake field goal on fourth down for a first down. Bethel scored twice in the last seven minutes of the game. The first touch-down on a four-yard pass from Anderstrom to Brian Johnson. Anderstrom ran for a two-point conversion to make the score 42-15, Augsburg. The Royals' last touchdown of the season came on a six-yard pass from Anderstrom to Kram-ka. Anderstrom ran again for two points to make the final score Augsburg 42, Bethel 23. This was the last game for nine Royal seniors. They are co-captains Paul Carl-son and Jim Anderstrom, Scott Engstrom, Paul Lind-berg, Dave Moberg, Bob Goebel, Rich Graves, Kelly "Bando" Brandes and Mark Johnson.

Tonight they play a pre-season game against alumni at Columbia Arena. The team and coaches said that they are looking forward to this season with their first full-time coach and a new,- young team. "We're going to have a little more depth than in the past," said Steve Kettelkamp, senior forward. When Coach Dahl was asked what the team's strengths were, he said, "None. No, our strength has been in our enthusi-asm and our willingness to work hard." He pointed out that the youth of the team, 34 members with only three seniors and 20 freshmen and transfers, hold promise for the corn-ing years. Kevin Hadlich, a team captain, said that there is a positive attitude among the team and the coaches and a "new commitment toward God from the play-ers." Dahl said, "My philoso-phy is a little different from most athletic philos-ophies: Strive to play to your best ability with real inner motivation. I believe that that's what God wants. When you become motivated internally, then things happen." Dahl down-plays the vio-lence of hockey. "I've played both hockey and foot-ball and I think football is the more violent." He hopes to train the Bethel team along European standards, with an emphasis on grace, strength and intelligence, rather than brute strength. The MIAC rules state that fighting will lead to a forfeit of two games by a player. Dahl stretched that ban to three games for any Bethel student who starts a fight. The team started prac-ticing earlier this year than in past years. They began off-ice training at the be-ginning of the school year and started skating a month ago. All home games will be played at Columbia Arena. "We're optimistic," Ket-telkamp said. "Craig Dahl is going to pull the team together."

Some higher scores may also allow a student to receive credit for one or two courses. "This fall we had reports (of Advanced Placement tests) from no more than 20 students out of 600," said Dr. Paul Finlay, regis-trar. The tests are used more in private high by Sue Fahrenkamp The strong Scandina-vian emphasis for this year's Festival of Christ-mas is something new. This year the entire Fes-tival choir and band will wear Scandinavian cos-tumes. We are experi-menting with Scandina-vian ideas that might be-come traditions," said Ger-ry Sundberg, producer. by Leann M. Kicker Bethel's forensics team has been competing in speaking and debate tour-naments almost every weekend this semester. Al-though Bethel is a relative-ly small school, the team, a co-curricular extention of the speech-communica-tion department, is doing very well. Last weekend, Nov. 7 - 8, Bethel competed in the first annual Cross Exami-nation Debate Association (CEDA) Invitational at the University of Wisconsin- LaCrosse. Bethel placed sec-ond in the debate tourna-ment, with Beth Neufeld and Mark Publow partic-ipating. Bethel took four of the sixteen teams in the competition. Coach Butch Maltby said that all the teams did very well although many of the people from Bethel had very little debate ex-perience. Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 Bethel competed in the McArthur Invitational at the Univer-sity of Wisconsin-River Falls. This tournament was exclusively individual competition. Bethel's Mike Wiseman took third place in impromptu speaking. In this event the speaker re-ceives an unknown topic and has seven minutes for both preparation and speak-ing on that topic. Rick Kreutzfeldt also qualified for finals in impromptu. Bethel also traveled to Colorado Springs, Oct. 22-25 to compete in the Another new feature is the Santa Lucia Pageant. The Santa Lucia is a Scan-dinavian folk tale tradition of Christmas. The pa-geant will be held at the beginning of the festival. Kerstin Pellmyr, a Swed-ish woman, will portray Santa Lucia. Six women students at Bethel will be maidens in her court. The theme for this year's Pike's Peak Invitational Colorado College, in the first CEDA tournament this year. CEDA distrib-utes the national debate topic at the beginning of the season. Thirty-four schools at-tended this competition with a total of 60 teams. Bethel took one team: Neufeld and Teresa Elia-son. The competition - was both debate and individ-ual events. Bethel quali-fied and competed in the octa-finals, losing to U.S. Air Force Academy in the debate competition. Eliason qualified for se-mi- finals but did not ad-vance. She participated in impromptu and expository speaking. Neufeld parti-cipated in impromptu and see page 3 festival is, "A Glorious Light Shines." This theme will be presented with light (the candlelight procession-al) and color (in- the cos-tumes) by the Festival choir and band. The music in this year's Festival of Christmas will also have a Scandinavian emphasis. Scandinavian songs will be sung as well as traditional carols. The faculty in the music department have been plan-ning the festival since spring. The choirs and the band have been preparing since September. Festival of Christmas will be held December 5,6 and 7, in Bethel's Robert-son Physical Education Center. Tickets are $3.50, in advance only through public affairs. by JoAnn Watkins Receiving credit for a class or becoming exempt from one appeals to most students. Advanced Place-ment tests, College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests and Bethel department tests are three ways that students can receive exemption or cre-dit for courses. The Advanced Place-ment tests from the Col-lege Examination Board schools, he said. Each Bethel department involved decides exemp-tions and credits to be re-ceived. A fee is charged when the rest of the test is taken. CLEP tests are also ta-ken for college credit. Ac-cording to Finlay, primar-ily post-secondary people 'take them. "They take the exams to get credit for their knowledge," said Fin-lay. The tests, developed by the Educational Test-ing Service, can give a stu-dent credit for a basic course. There are two types of CLEP examinations. With a general examination, which contains five basic areas, a student can re-ceive up to six semester credits at Bethel for each exam on which she scores at or above the 50th nation-al percentile. The subject examina-tions measure achievement in specific college course areas. Students may re-ceive three semester cred-its for each examination covering the material equi-valent to one semester's work, providing the score's at or above the 50th per-centile. The department again determines the cre-dit a student may receive for a subject test. A course taken at Bethel is worth four semester cre-dits. The maximum num-ber of CLEP credits a stu-dent can apply to a degree is 30. Credits earned by this type of examination do not affect a grade point aver-age. Transcripts state that the person has successful-ly completed the exam for the designated area and how many credits were accepted. Some departments at Be-thel give tests at the be-ginning of the year to de-termine the appropriate class level for students. Through these tests also, top-scoring students may apply for exemption from a basic level class. To receive credit for a course not available through CLEP or Advanced Placement, the student should contact the depart-ment chairman. Each de-partment is responsible for see page 3 Forensics team excels; overcomes small size Tests earn class credit, exemption Affluence should be used better editorial When we choose Bethel, we choose 'lifestyle' too Some issues allow for exaggerated coverage in the press. Other issues are only minimally suited to long expositions. The lifestyle at Bethel, ideally, should fall into the latter category, but unfortunately, finds itself stretched out of proportion all too many times. Bethel lifestyle is a fact of life on this campus. What-ever grumbling may go on about its demands on "free-dom," there can be no denying that each person who accepts admission onto this campus accepts the pre-cepts of the Bethel lifestyle. The choice belongs to the individual. Last week's editorial dealt with the possibility of students being required to resign the lifestyle statement at the beginning of each semester. The point raised was valid, asking only that we be given the benefit of any possible doubt, and be treated like the young adults we are. Our word is to be valued—give us credit for that. Now the question, "why all the commotion?" We asked for it, and now we've got it. Bethel didn't force us to come here. There are many other fine educational institutions that set forth no such "code" to live by. We have a choice. People on every level at Bethel are confronted with the lifestyle statement when they want to join the community. The statement itself says that the lifestyle is "intended for our community life." The standards are not set up for all Christians. It was drawn up, approved and voted on by the Board of Regents for this commun-ity and none other. Janitors, secretaries, professors, cooks—even the president of the college—sign the statement. Students are not the sole recipients of the confines of the lifestyle. We are a free people. We have the right to question, petition, complain and work for change or adjustment. There may be parts of the lifestyle that seem rigid and tough to live by, especially in today's society. There may be parts that sound old-fashioned. But Bethel does not deny that it is a tradition. It is a tradition that has been determined by to what is "necessary to build a Christian community." Once we are here we are hound. Working to change the lifestyle from within serves only to weaken the foundation on which the community has been building for many years. We are not in a position to tear down a tradition. We have asked that our word be valued, trusted and respected. Bethel asks that we value, trust, respect and uphold its tradition. 0 0 ari roman copy editor Art Gibbens, production editor nns Hawkins, business tf#y Sutton, editorial assis rta, cartoonis t *mt. Page 2 letters Anderson works toward unity An open letter to John B. Anderson Dear John: Congratulations on stick-ing to your guns right through to the end. Those who said, "He'll give up," are whistling a different tune. Two themes run through the deep structures of Rea-gan rhetoric. One of them, the "horizontal theme," fo-cuses on the past-present of our nation and says, "the best future is one in which life is as much like the mythologized past as possible." The other, the "vertical theme," focuses on the na-tion and its boundaries and says, "the best condition is one in which the rest of the human community serves our national pur-poses." Should this analysis be borne out in a Reagan ad-ministration oriented to na-tional past, not global fu-ture, and should the pre-sent technological gap be-tween ourselves and the under-developed become a more critical global issue, and should our present un-fair advantage in exploit-ing the earth's resources be called into question in the court of world opinion, you and Jerry Brown may •find yourselves in a fight to the finish between Rea-gan on the right and Mon-dale/ Kennedy on the left. If you should decide to continue your effort to-ward national unity, in a third party or under ano-ther umbrella, you must take a case for a global future in which the United States cooperates with Westlund quits senate due to little time, drive Dear Editor: In the Oct. 31 issue of the Clarion your publica-tion gave two reasons for my resignation from sen-ate. I'd just like to clarify a misunderstanding of my reasons. I do not feel that there is less motivation in senate this year than last year. A few people could possibly use more motivation, but see page 3 other nations to close the technological gap and man-age global resources. There is no future but a global one. There is no jus-tification for maintaining or increasing the techno-logical gap. There is no moral right to use our tech-nological competence to consume more than our fair share of the earth's resources. I suggest that this case is more broadly accepta-ble on a global and nation-al scale and more authen-tically Christian and broad-ly humanitarian than the case for a national future that competes for the world's limited resources with a gigantic technolog-ical head start. More than any of the other voices heard in the campaign just ended, yours seemed to be reaching for just such a case. I wish you well in formulating it, articulating it, sharing it and defending it. I pledge my continued support. Your friend, Donald N. Larson Dear Editor, One aspect of Bethel per-iodically nauseates me: the the misused affluence of our community. A lot of money is repre-sented at Bethel, which itself is not wrong. The nauseating part is that this money is spent, I think, on the over-extravagant ma-terial things. Walking past the circle parking lot I see Cadillacs, foreign sports cars, vans— all sorts of 1980-model cars. Walking into class I see leather coats, designer jeans, expensive watches and jewelry. Walking through the PE building I see Nikes, Pu-mas, name-brand racquet-ball racquets and balls and special carrying bags for them. In winter, famous-name skis and poles, ski boots and ski outfits abound. Granted, finances are "tight" for some at Bethel. But the point is, shouldn't we all (students, faculty, administrators) spend/use our money more "wisely"? Use it less on new cars and expensive clothes and name-brand sports equip-ment and more on people who need food, medical care and shelter? "Stewardship" grates on most everyone's nerves. We all sit through ser-mons, chapels and prayer-and- shares about it. Per-haps we should try it in-stead of talking about it. Instead of buying that new improved racquetball rac-quet or that cashmere sweater, we should sent the money to -World Vis-ion, CARE or some other charity. L.L.

The seminar is designed to help interested students Westlund, from page 2 my own lack of motiva-tion because of a lack of time is my only reason for resignation. This year's sen-ate has a lot of time left before its term is ended and I feel it's capable of doing many good things for this school. The misunderstanding was unfortunate, but if any-one wishes to see my rea-sons stated clearly, read my letter of resignation in the Oct. 28, 1980 issue of the senate minutes.

He serves on the editor-ial committee of various religious publications and has contributed many arti-cles to church journals and encyclopedias. Knight is who have graduated with B.A. degrees in psychol-ogy will discuss their cur-rent jobs and offer sugges-tions to students about how they can better pre-pare themselves for future employment. The second hour will provide a time for questions and answers between students and the guest panel. Refreshments will be served afterwards, allowing students to meet see page 5 I also wish to commend both Alvera Mickelsen and Lynn Fauth for their in-put. I hope that their words of wisdom will not go unnoticed by the Bethel community. Thanks, John Bower by JoAnn Watkins "They want us to come," stressed Paul Nethercott upon his return from the International Student Con-sultation on Frontier Mis-sions. He was referring to the countries represented at the consultation that are primarily unreach-ed by Christian ministries. The consultation, held in Edinburgh, Scotland, was the first time that non- Western and Western mission board leaders came together. The watch-word for the consultation was "A church for every people by the year 2000." "There are many strong indigenous national mis-sion boards in places like currently working on a corn-mentary on the pastoral epistles for the "New In-ternational Greek Testa-ment Commentary" series. Living in St. Louis, Mis-souri, Knight works as an educator and minister of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Evangelical Syn-od. His academic back-ground includes an A.D. from Davidson College in 1953. He later attended Westminster Theological Forensics from page 1 original oratory. Bethel tied for 29th place in this competition. That same weekend Phil-ip Rohier took six stu-dents to the Twin Cities Forensics League compe-tition. Rohier said most of these students in this com-petition had little or no experience beforehand. "In my analysis of the tour-nament we did very well. We placed fourth and for some of these people it was their first experience. They said on the way home they felt they had learned something about them-selves." Seventeen schools par-ticipated in this tourna-ment. According to Rohier, "Bethel is viewed as a strong contender in every tournament we attend." The Omaha Invitational Individual Events Tourna-ment at the University of Nebraska was Bethel's chal-lenge for Oct. 16-18. In this competition. Bethel placed seventh overall, India and Indonesia," said Nethercott, a '79 Bethel graduate. These countries are open to mission work he said. The goal of the consul-tation was "to seethe in-digenous mission socie-ties work along with the Western mission societies in expanding these fronti-ers and expanding the vis-ion," said Nethercott. The focus on frontier missions refers to places without missionaries and church-es. Nethercott said the con-sultation was the begin-ning of a student move-ment similar to that of the 1920's and 30's. He said the consultation was call-ed specifically to mobilize Seminary of Philadelphia where he received a B.D. and a Th. M. In 1968 Knight obtained a Th.D. from Free University of Amsterdam, The Nether-lands. Knight was ordained to the ministry in 1961. In 1963 he served as visiting professor at the Near East School of Archaeology, Jeru-salem. Knight is married and has five children. with 20 schools from eight states competing. Neufeld took second place in impromptu, reach-ed finals in original ora-tory and qualified for semi-finals in prose interpreta-tion. Wiseman qualified for finals in impromptu and rhetorical criticism. Elia-son qualified for finals in expository speaking. Laura Stratton and Linda Nylen also participated. Bethel placed sixth over-all in the Lyle C. Huseby Invitational Tournament held Oct. 3-4 at Far-go, N.D. Eighteen schools participated in this tour-nament. Publow took fifth place in impromptu. Neu-feld came in first in ex-temporaneous speaking and second in impromptu. Three other students par-ticipated. Maltby said Bethel con-sistently places in the top 10, with a relatively small squad of 5-7 students. Many schools' teams are larger, 10-15 students. Placement is based on points earned by individ-ual participants. Bethel students usually compete the young people, since they obviously have the highest potential. About nine students at the consultation represent-ing the different areas of the world met after much prayer, said Nethercott. They developed this pledge: "By the grace of God, and for His glory, I commit my entire life to obeying His commission of Matt. 28:18- 20wherever and however He leads me, giving prior-ity to the peoples current-ly beyond the reach of the Gospel (Rom. 15:20-21). I will also endeavor to im-part this vision to others." Exposure to the world situation concerning fron-tier missions and an open-ness to God's plan are what Nethercott stated as the aims of the pledge. "I thought it was impor-tant that if I went, I (would) come to Bethel to share missions in general and Edinburgh in particu-lar," said Nethercott. "We need thousands of people at home praying and financ-ing. This is every bit as important as someone ac-tually going. "Let's not look for Christ to return," Nethercott said, "until all nations and all peoples have heard of Christ." in three events. Maltby said, "It helps earn points and prepare for future pen-tathalon meets where each participant competes in five events." The next competition will be at Illinois State University, where Bethel will compete against Whea-ton. Last year Wheaton was fifth in the country. "That tournament will de-termine Bethel's standing in the midwest," said Malt-by. Credit from page 1 setting up an acceptable score for exemption. Ac-cording to Dwight Jessup, academic administration director, it is fairly unus-ual for a student to receive credit this way. "A student has the right to challenge any course in the curriculum," said Fin-lay. "They are not going to come chasing after you," said one student who quali-fied for exemption. "If you're interested you have to find one."

In fact, it is amazing the number of students that are so knowledgeable about art. After all, its not a small matter to call an art piece "junk," a word often spoken in reference to the sculp-tures and other words of abstract art that enhance the campus. After a lengthy three-second analysis, "junk," or some other signal of disgust, is tossed out to indicate that the art work doesn't contain any recognizable object. Ironically, most people think they understand an artwork if they can recognize something in it; however, a good representational piece is much more than first impressions. Few people seem to recognize the fact that abstract art and representational art deal with the same forms, shapes, composition and ideas; they just express them differently. A correct analogy would be the relation of the English language to the Spanish language. In comparison, abstraction and representation are merely two visual languages. On the side, I should also note that of the two, abstract art is the "honest" one; in other words, the literal one. After all, part of the purpose of realism is to fool the viewer into thinking that the artwork is real. Abstract- art simply recognizes that the medium should be a two-dimensional reality and not a three-dimen-sional illusion. To even begin to understand abstract art, it must be understood that it deals with a reality that is not of the physical world. The language of abstract art is that of color, shape, texture, stroke, lines, value, intensity, etc... Representational art also has these aspects, but an abstraction distills them; it isolates these elements and creates a different world. Naturally the question arises as to how this different language can be understood. To put it simply: it takes time. A piece of representational or abstract art cannot be understood in a glance. Don't misunderstand me; all art does not have a meaning. Some art pieces are beautiful visual games where the artist leads the viewer's eyes around and through colors and shapes solely for pleasure. Other artworks can be painful, spiritual struggles that are ripped out of the artist's heart and placed self-conscious-ly on a canvas or pedestal. In such manner the viewer must struggle with art, and this is its beauty: to dis-cover the mystery, to unravel the construction, to see something in a new way, to find new meaning or simply to enjoy the intricacy of color or shape. (Consider this in comparison to much of "Christian art," where a stale idea is stated in a safe, conventional way so as to he understood through an economical expenditure of a few seconds! It is sad, though, to consider the way in which much of "Christian art" has sold out to the masses, bowing to the demands for an easy-understand-easy-forget art. The viewer is not to be blamed. It is just that our society conditions us to a transient and shallow art, where all that is needed is a quick glance. A few seconds of visual contact is all this distortion of art can handle, and that is because there is nothing else to it. It's shallowness can be comprehended in a mere glimpse, and then it can be discarded. Another word commonly used for things that are discarded is... junk.

Page 5 Future studies course to help students plan From Our compiled by Jay Russell Bill Johnson will team teach a futures course next spring. by Shari Goddard What would Christians do if a drug company made a safe abortion pill? How far should we allow gene-tic management to go? How should we plan our lives with the depletion of nat-ural resources? These are a few of the issues a new class at Bethel will attempt to prepare students for in the future. Team-taught by Bill John-son of the political science department and David Lee, associate professor of speech-communication, "Thinking in the Future Tense" will explore the fu-ture. Ironically, the class it-self is a new innovation. Open to juniors and sen-iors, it will fit in as a bal-ance course. Its 300-level standing counts towards the 15 upper-level courses required for most students' graduation. Johnson hopes to draw together students from all concentrations. He said Christians too often ignore planning for the future. They are either the "Hal Lindsays with their view of the future beginning with the second coming," or they fatalistically leave all planning in the Lord's hands. Johnson said Christians are responsible for the world until the Lord re-turns. The two men will "gen-uinely team-teach." Each will take part in all class sessions and look on the class as a part of their own learning. Johnson said that will also allow students to see the teachers arguing. They hope to encourage students to challenge oth-ers' ideas. The class is limited to upperclassmen because, ac-cording to Johnson, they are more experienced in asking questions and prob-ing for answers. by Naomi Ludeman Student Senate Com-munication Board will eval-uate the source of KABY's budget and make a recom-mendation Tuesday night to the student senate. Presently, KABY's funds originate with the senate. The speech-communication department is the source under discussion for juris-diction of the station's bud-get. ed that the construction of the mini-grocery store should be finished today. Senate members suggest-ed items of food to be sold in the store. The food var-ied from salt, sugar and flour to pancake mixes with syrup. Charlie Retts, dean of men and advisor to the student senate, said if the mini-store goes well and runs efficiently it could grow to be "big times" and possibly a co-op as sev-eral other colleges have. Retts commended the sen-ate members for the num-ber of hours already put into PROJECT: INSIDE-OUT. He reminded the sen-ators of the commitment the project requires for its success. The time of "Rocky," to-night's first fund-raiser for the project, has been changed to 8:30 p.m. ra-ther than 10 p.m. reported Dave Lucas, student body president. IM bowling begins first competition From the October 25, 1968 issue. Nixon winner. College editors from the Associated Collegiate Press predicted Richard Nixon would win the 1968 presi-dential election. Seven per cent of the nation's editors were sur-veyed by the school of journalism and mass com-munication at the Univer-sity of Minnesota. Of the seven per cent, 91 per cent predicted Nixon would win the presidential race, al-though only 50 per cent said they would vote for him. Hubert Humphrey re-ceived 37 per cent of the vote, while George Wal-lace and Dick Gregory re-ceived one-and-a-half per cent each. Ten per cent were undecided. Marion James Hall. Junior Ralph Sheppard presented a petition with the names of more than 450 Bethel students to Vir-gil Olson, dean of the col-lege. The petition requested that the new dorm on new campus (now Nelson res-idence), be named Marion James Hall. Sheppard spearheaded the drive for the petition, which honored "our de-parted friend, Marion James" (a student). Dean Olson "cautioned that 'we must take a com-posite look at the new cam-pus before naming parts.' He pointed out that the possibility of carrying over names from the present campus must be examined, and that perhaps the pol-icy of naming buildings after people needs to be carefully thought through."

Two overdue papers claw my mind. The lure to loaf has lost its spell. I'm now bound by time to my wooden nook. I glance at the clock. Toxic smells from this cheap ink pen nauseate me. An introduction paragraph lacking a thesis gets shoved into the corner. My pen follows. Sweaty palms coast down my thighs. Tomorrow's reading assignment offers a nice retreat. Pages 64-119. By page 66 I predict the rest to be dry. Scanning speed: on. Key words and phrases flash like city neons. Higher page numbers make me smile. Page 71, neck cramps. Book tilts to 45 degrees. I glance at the clock. Time lapse. The valley between my thumb and index finger nestles up under my lower lip. Launching years ahead I discover myself sitting at an outdoor cafe in France. Gentle breeze. Mellow music. Suddenly I spy an enchanting mate sitting alone at a distant table. My heart throbs. Her eyes catch mine. An external ten-second stare melts everything within me. Like taking a cue in a play, I leave my seat and sit at her table. Silence reigns. Our eyes speak infinitely more eloquent than words could attempt. Like magnets in slow motion we near each other's lips for a kiss. What bliss. What? Page 75. The cold light and the perpetual drone of the library heavens slap me back to reality.

FOR ALL YOUR SIGNING NEEDS Colored Poster Paper by the Foot 6c per foot — 8 Colors To Choose From at BETHEL BOOKSTORE Page 8 Healy orphanage shelters needy Filipino children by Beth Stien Corpus Christe is a pio-neer venture in missions. Better known to the Bethel community as the "Healy orphanage," this shelter home for Filipino children began in 1979 with a group of seven people who felt a special burden for the needy children of Cebu City, Cebu Island. The Healys make it clear, however, that Corpus Christe is not "their" or-phanage. "The Filipino chil-dren are the name of the game," said Jerry Healy, professor in the English department at Bethel. "The staff at Corpus Christe does not wish to be the highlight of the operation, what's important are the kids," he said. Yet the Healy family is closely tied to the work at Corpus Christe. Healy's son Paul, a Bethel gradu-ate, and daughter-in-law Marlys are among the seven who pioneered this unique mission. Jerr. serves as chairman of the board of directors for the DelAdwalwan Founda-tion, a non-profit, fund-raising organization whose job is to raise mon-ey for and support the work at Corpus Christe. Jerry's wife, Millie, their daughter Liz (also a Bethel graduate) and their son Dave are all on the board of directors. Dave, an in-structor in the English de-partment, and his wife Nancy edit the bi-monthly newsletter which DelAd-walwan sends to its sup-porters. The prime focus of this mission, however, is in Ce-bu City. The seven-mem-ber staff lives in one four-bedroom house and at the present time cares for four children. These children range in age from a few days to seven years, and require 24-hour care. A child stays at the shel-ter home anywhere from one to eight months. "Al-most all the children they get are sick and usually by Debbie Anderson Two or three students almost always wait out-side Scott Wallace's office door, with another stu-dent inside his office. Ear-ly in the semester, Wallace told his accounting class, "If you have trouble with your accounting problems or anything else, come to my office. That's why I have office hours. And I mean that." When students enter Wallace's office, they see two items that Wallace invariably points out. One is a poster that says, "If it was easy, anyone could do it." The other is a Phila-delphia Phillies baseball cap. Wallace is originally from Philadelphia, which explains his non-Minne-sota accent. It also ex-plains why he brought his red Phillies cap to class and hung it over the lamp of the overhead projector as if it were a Phillies mascot. Wallace is good-natured and likes to tease his stu-dent s (always with a smile on his face) about almost anything—whe-ther they are Kansas City Royals fans or whether they should receive extra points for bringing him cof-fee in his morning classes. That's his way of showing that he cares about his students. And even though each of his Ac-counting I classes number have just been hospital-ized," said Jerry Healy. "They typically come mal-nourished, with tubercu-losis or skabies (a skin disease), and the home gives them medical treat-ment," he said. over 50 students, he knew each class member by name after the first few weeks of the semester. Wallace is a hard work-er, which explains the reason for the poster in his office. He not only is a full-time teacher, but he is also a full-time owner of an accounting firm—the W. Scott Wallace account-ing firm. As if that were not enough, he teaches a night course for certified life underwriters (specia-lized insurance people). He is also married and a father of two daughters, one of whom is a fresh-man at Bethel. Three times a week Wal-lace plays racquetball at 5:45—in the morning! This early hour is not unusual After their stay at Cor-pus Christe, some children are adopted, some are re-turned to their parents and some are sent to other in-stitutions. Corpus Christe has an-other ministry in addition to him because he is out of bed every day at 5 a.m. Wallace says of his sche-dule, "I know I am busy. But if I had extra time, I'd waste it." Wallace received his B.S. degree in economics from Franklin Marshall College in Lancaster, Penn-sylvania, where he also played varsity football for four years. He was certi-fied as a certified public accountant and moved from Philadelphia to Del-aware to work as an ac-countant. After only five years, Wallace became a pail net' in the accounting firm. This was also the time he rededicated his life to the Lord. Soon after, he began to the shelter home. The staff ministers to the chil-dren and mothers in sev-eral "squatters' villages" within the city. This in-volves getting medical see page 10 to look for full-time Chris-tian work where he could use his accounting skills. It wasn't until 1976 that Wallace received a phone call from a Christian bus-inessman in Denver, Colo-rado. He wanted Wallace to come to Minnesota to help establish an office in St. Paul. Wallace came and two years later, bought out the company he now owns. Wallace said that last year he was led by the Lad and coaxed by Steve Simpson to teach at Be-thel. He said that he likes teaching at Bethel and en-joys the fellowship he has with both students and faculty. His biggest sur-prise about Bohol how-ever, is I he LW: He rails it Grand Central Station. As a teacher, Wallace said he has a "bigger com-mitment to teaching than a non-Christian in a secu-lar school • because I an serving the Lord. I have to do the best I can do."

If Chris-tian lyrics are added to it, they are incongruous, be-cause the music conveys one message and the words another." But Leafblad says the church should gen-erate new music of its own, and laments the fact that most of the material in our hymnals was written be-fore the twentieth century. Leafblad's wife, June, is also a Bethel graduate. They have two children, twins, Stewart and Steph-anie, nine. Leafblad said he will have to go back to Minne-sota- types of recreation. "In California I was a beach bum, a desert rat, and I loved the mountains," he said. But he is looking for-ward to fishing and water skiing here in his native state, when his busy sche-dule and the season per-mit.

Con-ceptual art deals with ideas and concepts unlike paintings, sculptures, or other physical forms of art. Cooper makes the space itself a piece of art by placing objects in it to give a different visual ef-fect to each person who sees it. In addition to his dis-play, Cooper will be work-ing in December with cho-reographer Sage Cowles to produce a show entitled "Shuffle and Click". Cowles' job will be to fill the space created by Coo-per with bodies. She will randomly select viewers from the audience to come down and with guidance enter into the show. The title of "Shuffle and Click" comes from the six slide projectors which throughout the show will be flashing various pic-tures that are supposed to give the audience a float-ing effect. The production is being made possible by a $4,000 grant from the Jerome Foun-da lion to the, general school fund. The project's total cost will amount to $7,245 of which Bethel will have to pay $3,245. There will be showings on Dec. 8, at 7 and 8:30 p.m. The show will then travel to the Walker Art Center followed by a tour of the state. Cooper is a member of the Glen Hanson Art Gal-lery in Minneapolis. He received his master's of Fine Arts in sculpture from Washington University in SI. Louis, Missouri in 1973. He was also an instructor al the Minneapolis College Of Art and Design in 1979. by Jerry Manus Bruce Leafblad, a former Bethel student, after sev-eral years absence, has re-turned as a professor. Leafblad graduated from Bethel College in 1962, ma-joring in music and spe-cializing in voice. He grad-uated from Bethel semin-ary in 1966. In 1979 Ledblad was chosen Bethel Alumnus of the Year, an award deter-mined on the basis of the student's life after gradua-tion. Leafblad spent most of his years since his gradua-tion as one of the pastors at Lake Avenue Con-gregational Church in Pasa-dena, California. He was in charge of all music min-istries for the large church, a job allowing little time for singing, but requiring much conducting. Leafblad also earned a doctorate in church music at the University of Sou-thern California. A couple of years ago Leafblad began feeling that his ministry at the Lake Avenue church was com-ing to an end. Soon after that he received requests from six different colleges offering him teaching posi-tions, one of them Bethel. Leafblad decided God wanted him at Bethel. He is now an associate pro-fessor of church music and worship. Leafblad says the department is breaking new ground, because this is the only church music program in the country which involves both a col-lege and a seminary. Leafblad is excited about his work and certain that this is where God wants him. He likes his students and feels he communicates well with them. The most striking change in Bethel for Leafblad since he was a student here is the way it has grown. "The college used to have only about 500 students. Now there are almost that many in the seminary," he said. Leafblad sees a "freshness and openness" and a "great-er zeal to integrate faith and learning" than when he attended in the early '60s. He said there is "more diversity in students," a "greater blend, which en-riches life at Bethel."

Ogden-Ma-louf was attracted to Bethel because it is a Christian College. She en-joys the Christian atmos-phere and the interaction the students have with the faculty. Ogden-Malouf set a goal to help students at Bethel learn. She would also like to assist the development of Christian theatre. A particular interest is the exploration. of ritual or worship theatre.' She en-joys theatre because, "It is a primary experience. It is very powerful." Ogden-Malouf began act-ing as a senior in high school. "I fell in love with it," she reminisced. She received a lot of encour-agement from instructors. While attending Stanford University, she also did some acting. After directing a dorm play her sophomore year, Ogden-Malouf discovered her talent for directing. Without a great deal of acting experience, she be-gan to direct more plays throughout college. After graduating from Stanford, Ogden-Malouf at-tended Northwestern Uni-versity, earning her mas-ter's degree and doctorate in theatre arts. While at Northwestern, she took' many directing classes. The highlight of Ogden- Malouf's college career in directing was her senior year at Stanford. An or-ganization called Ram's Head put on an annual musical. The organization eventually died out. Og-den- Malouf resurrected the organization and di-rected the musical. Ogden-Malouf teaches creative performance, theatre history, and words and ideas. During the spring, she will direct "The Madwoman of Chail-lot," a satire on capitalism. Ogden-Malouf is mar-ried to Jeff Ogden, part time instructor of account-ing at Bethel.

Eight members of last year's faculty have moved to new situations this year-some across the country, or across the state, across town, or just across cam-pus. Two former faculty mem-bers have switched to pas-toral roles. John Piper, for-merly an associate profes- Hodgson specializes in tricks that are easy to trans-port. He has used assist-ants and lots of props, but found it to be impractical. Hodgson practices every effect until he is comfor-table with it. Then he thinks about how it can be performed creatively. He sor in biblical studies, is now senior pastor at Beth-lehem Baptist Church, Mpls. Philip Sackett, former associate professor of chem-istry, has taken a church in Milaca, Minn. He is offi-cially on a one-year leave of absence, "trying to de-termine if the Lord is lead-ing him to be a pastor or a professor," said Dean George Brushaber. ,Wayne Fri tchie, who was an instructor in music, has gone into business in the Twin Cities area. also adapts the tricks to the audience and the set-ting. Hodgson said he takes magic lighter that some other magicians. He would like to perform for groups that need him. "I just want to be used," he said smil-ing. Two of last year's facul-ty are over-the-hill—at the seminary. Robert Stein, for-mer professor of biblical st udies, and John Sailha-mer, once an assistant pro-fessor in biblical studies, now teach at the semin-ary. Da vid Bausch and Charles "Chub" Reynolds now hold teaching positions in our schools. Rausch, for-mer assistant professor in history and geography, now teaches in Ashland care for the children, bring-ing them food and cloth-ing and instructing moth-ers how to better care for their children. Jerry and Millie Healy went to Cebu City for a month this past summer to visit the home and see Corpus Christe in action. Both came away "thorough-ly convinced of the need for the work," he said. Corpus Christe is pre-sently below the eight-chil-dren capacity. Ideally, the mission would like to get more children. They own nine acres of land south of Cebu City, as well as the house, and have future plans to build on the prop-erty. They would keep the house in Cebu as quaran-tine quarters, but need 12- 15 children before such an operation can take place. Ruth Oliver, a junior at Bethel, went to Corpus Christe under SMP this summer. She was impressed by the boldness of these young people to venture out on their own and begin such a unique ministry. "I am really impressed with the lifestyle these people have taken on," said Oli-ver. "They have set up a new system and ministry in another culture. This is very difficult to start from scratch, as they have done. They've moved out in such faith, and are doing an excellent job." Oliver became familiar with the home through Central Baptist Church, where the Healys attend. When she found out Cor-pus Christe had a need for extra help this summer, she took the opportunity to go under SMP. "The orphanage opened my eyes to a type of ser-vice ministry that a lot of people, including myself, don't realize exists," said Oliver. Theological Seminary in Ohio. Reynolds, former as-sistant professor in physi-cal education and head foot-ball coach is teaching and coaching in Northwestern College in Roseville. The only faculty mem-ber to retire last year was Junet Runbeck, professor in education. Two more faculty members plan to retire after this semester: Olaf Olsen, professor in history; and C. Howard Smith, professor in music. An elementary educa-tion major, Oliver feels a strong pull to return next summer and focus on edu-cation. She foresees a move there permanently after graduation. "I'd like to teach in a Christian or private school for Filipino children. They have such a great need, materially as well as spiritually," she said. She sees the focus on practical application of ag-riculture programs and nu-trition important to such teaching. Bethel students can do many things to involve themselves in the Corpus Christe ministry: -Receive the newsletter, which comes every other month. Read it and stay informed. -Support the mission through letters. Write the staff and encourage them in their work. "Writing let-ters is a great support," said Oliver. "Write and let them know of the interest here in their work." -Tell others about the work at Corpus Christe. -Support the mission financially. -Help send out the news-letter. Del Adlawan needs three or four people to help with distribution. -Pray for the staff's pa-tience and endurance. -Anyone interested in the work at Corpus Christe can contact Jerry or Dave Healy or Ruth Oliver. Wallace, from page 8 Wallace has some goals for Bethel's busine-ss de-partment. He would like to see four more classes added to keep many ac-counting students from transferring to other schools. The added courses would help to "keep and prepare s I uden s to be competitive in the job market." by Sue Fahrenkamp It's magical, it's myste-rious, and yet, it's a minis-try. Magician Joel Hodg-son uses his talent for ma-gic as "a vehicle for spread-ing the gospel." Hodgson, a junior at Be-thel College, performs ma-gic as a ministry. When on stage, he allows the aud-ience to feel comfortable with his humor and his tricks. Then he shares something pertinent. At the end of his show, he will share his testimony. Hodgson, now 20, began his career in seventh grade. He began as a ventrilo-quist, after graduating from a 30-lesson course. "I did it for attention," he admitted. After seventh grade, Hodgson met a friend at Bible camp who introduced him to magic. He imme-diately was intrigued by the fun and challenge of it. The friend put Hodgson in touch with a magician's club. In eighth grade, Hodg-son started doing birthday party shows that combined ventriloquism and magic. While he was in high school, demand had grown to one or more shows a week. Hodgson has performed at banquets, talent shows and spent two summers doing magic at a local res-taurant. Hodgson did a Christmas special twice for local television in Green Bay, Wisc., where he grew up. He still does shows while in college. He has performed at Christian cof-feeshops and fronted for some. Christian rock and roll bands. Hodgson wants his aud-ience to know that the ma-gic performed is just sim-ple tricks.

Some people wondered how long it would take Head Coach George Palke to rejuvenate the basket-ball program at Bethel. There was no denying he had a good nucleus to work with in his first year as the Royal mentor. At guard, seniors Dave Blan-chard and Torn Weko re-turned from the year be-fore. Wingmen Gary and Greg Edlund transferred in from a junior college in California. Veterans Rey Miller and Scott Wilson solidified the post posi-tion. Add Jason Velgers-dyk, the 6'-7" freshman from Edina and you can see why Bethel fans were smiling. The season started out in normal fashion as the Royals buried the alumni and then topped Concordia- St. Paul for Coach Palke's debut victory. It looked like the beginning of a ser-ies but the Royals blew a 17-point lead in the next game at Superior, losing 87-86. The team then went out west for two games, beat-ing Rocky Mountain Col-lege after losing to Eastern Montana. The Royals then returned home and whip-by Brad Nauman Bethel wrestling coach Dave Klostreich said that despite his team's youth and inexperience, it should do fairly well and could place as high as third in the MIAC conference. The team is led this year by co-captains Greg Wid-mer and Greg Heinsch and veterans Russ Reynolds and Mike Anderson. Following is a weight-by- weight preview of the 1980-81 Royal Wrestling team: 118—The battle for this spot will be between fresh-men Don Lint from Cadil-lac, Mich., and Sean Joyce of St. Paul, Minn. 126—Sophomore Russ Reynolds, who placed fourth in the conference last year at 118, is moving up to 126 this year. He will be challenging incumbent ped St. Thomas in the con-ference opener 89-70. Five Bethel players hit double figures, a feat that would happen several times dur-ing the season. Next stop for the cagers was Chicago and the Trin-ity tournament. The Roy-als took home the first-place hardware with easy victories over Northwest-ern and. Trinity. Skeptics were starting to believe as the Royals record went to 5-2. The next five games, however, probably made them doubt. Crippled with injuries, the Royals beat only St. Olaf at the Augs-burg invitational. They lost to Northwestern and St. Thomas, both of whom they had already defeated soundly. The Royal five then re-sumed the long conference haul against Augsburg and St. John's. Playing at home against the Auggies, the slumping Royals looked tight, losing 73-45. It was the same story at Collegeville as their rec-ord dropped to 6-6 with the 81-60 defeat. And then it happened. As if they suddenly real-ized their potential, the Royals came on like gang-busters. The first victim was Macalester. Scoring 65 points in the first half, the Royals decimated the Scots 114-84. Excitement Kirk Walters, a sophomore from Iowa City, Iowa. Also at this weight will be re-turner Rich Reynertsen, a sophomore from Stanch-field, Minn. 134—Co- ca p t a in Greg Widmer from Washington, Iowa, has held down this weight for the last two years. This year his com-petition will come from sophomore Steve Solstad from Jackson, Minn.; fresh-man Joe Yaklich from Hib-bing, Minn.; and freshman Rich Reynolds from St. Paul, Minn., who could wrestle at either 134 or 142. 142— Junior Wayne Reeves from Fridley, Minn., or freshman Brett Moller from Kiron, Iowa, will hold down this spot this year. They could be challenged by Rich Rey-nolds if he does not com-pete at 134. swept throught the cam-pus as if a gold rush were taking place. Fired up by big Steve "Hoss" Carrigan and the rest of the team, during the unique Sweet Georgia Brown warmup, the fans began packing out the Rob-ertson P.E. Center. On the road Royal fans outdrew at least three other schools. As the blue and gold rolled on, names and num-bers became blurred. St. Mary's by nine, St. Olaf by six, Hamline, Concor-dia, Gustavus in overtime. Suddenly, the Royals found themselves in a chase for the playoffs. If they could win their next two games they would be in second place in the MIAC. Alas, it was not to be. Perhaps looking ahead to the big match-up against St. John's, the Beth-el cagers were upset by St. Thomas 73-66. To make matters worse, after lead-ing the Johnnies most of the way, center John Eisen-schenk hit an 18-footer with two seconds left stunning the Royal fans with the 63-61 defeat. After that crushing loss with play-off hopes almost certainly dashed, the team could have given up. They did not. The best was yet to come. The next oppo-nent was Augsburg: 20-0, third-ranked-in-the-na- 150—Co -captain Greg Heinsch from Faribault, Minn., will be challenged by freshman Doug John-son from Northwood, Io-wa, and sophomore Dar-ryl Morressey from Toke-land, Wash. 158—Either sophomore Ben McEachern from Ma-ple Plain, Minn., or Dave "Igor" Steeves from Nee-nah, Wisc., will go at 158 this year. 167— Sop h om o re Jon Martin from Lisbon, Iowa, is the incumbent at this position. His competition this year will come from Andy Carlson, a freshman from Eau Claire, Wisc. 177—Senior Mike And-erson from St. Paul, Minn., is the only wrestler at this weight this year. He placed fourth in the conference See page 5 tion Augsburg. The game was not even close. All the major area newspapers had Royal headlines on the 90-74, "Bethel hands Augsburg 1st loss." The program had arrived. Five more victories came in a row before Gustavus ended Bethel's season with a 79-75 loss. The team played a little flat against the Gusties, possibly be-cause they had just found out that, win or lose, they did not have a playoff invi-tation. The long, exciting sea-son had finally ended. The tale of the tape read: 18-9 overall record, 13-5 and third place in the confer-ence (12 wins of their last 15 games), 12 new team records, including most wins, and 10 new individ-ual records. Three players, Blanchard, Miller and Wil-son, were named all-confer-ence: Blanchard was also named all-NAIA district 13. In the program for the final game of the year Coach Palke and the play-ers publicly thanked the fans for their strong sup-port and asked, "What do you say we get together and do it again next year?" As President Lundquist would say, "Sure enuf. Let's do it." Next week an in-depth look at the 1980-81 basket-ball Royals. leading scorer. Rose Sen-sion returns for her third year as manager. The first game is Decem-ber 1, against St. Olaf at Northfield. The first home game is December 9, against Con-cordia, St. Paul. LaRock is optimistic about the team. "There's a lot of good, young talent. There's a depth that we haven't had in the past." There is a full junior var-sity this season so there will be "good playing time," says LaRock. "We're looking to run a faster game....We're work-ing on the defense. We will need to learn to read the defense and play them," said LaRock. The team has good height this year, with six of the women being over 5'10", one of them fresh-man Keri Deboer. There are many promising fresh-men this year, LaRock said. "We have good, quick freshmen guards." Right now, the team is still looking at people and working with skills. "We are battling with small, nagging injuries," says La- Rock. With an 11-10 rec-ord from last year, she sees potential in the team. The team has four games planned before Christmas break. This is a lighter schedule than last year when they had six. A major trip is planned for the end of interim to Wheaton, Ill. The team will play three other schools in a Christian College tourna-ment.

Friday's tournament ac-tion left the Royals with a 4-6 record and a place in the play-off's held Sat-urday. Bethel earned the place by achieving a high-. er number of total points than Winona who also had a 4-6 record after Friday's play. Merry Olmstead com-mented, "We played well; it was a good way to end the season." Joy Sorenson reflected, "We were happy to get into the play-offs on Sat-urday. The team who took first (Macalester) beat us. I'm proud of the team; we did a real good job this season. We came further this year than ever before." Team co-captain JoAnn Griffin said, "I think we finished the season reason-ably well. I was disappoint-ed with the way it ended, losing to Mac, but we had a good season overall." Friday the Royals defeat-ed Gustavus twice, lost two to St. Kates, split with Morris, 15-9, and 11-15, lost two to Moorhead and split with Dr. Martin Lu-ther College, 15-4 and 16- 14. Bethel was part of a three-way tie for fifth place with St. Mary's and Concordia- Moorhead. by Brad Nauman New Bethel trainer, Neal Dutton, is currently fulfil-ling a goal that he has had for a long time. "One of my goals was to be a trainer at the collegiate level, and I'm really enjoying my-self," said Dutton. Dutton also hopes to im-plement a complete stu-dent trainer program. He currently has two students, Brad Kroulik and Deb Sension, working with him but he would like to get more students involved. "Brad and Deb really do a good job," said Dutton. "I would like to get more student trainers involved and really get a good pro-gram going," he continued. Dutton earned his bach-elor's degree from Eastern Washington University where he majored in phys-ical education, with an ath-letic training emphasis. He went on to South Dakota State University where he received his mas-ter's degree. While study-ing at South Dakota State, he served as graduate as-sistant trainer and assist-ant basketball coach. Dutton learned of the Bethel opening from the head trainer at SDSU. To him this meant a chance to fulfill his goal of being a full-time trainer on the col-legiate level. He applied and was offered the job. Dutton is very impressed with the Bethel commun-ity. "There is more empha-sis on Christianity and more commitment to the Lord than I expected," said Dutton. by Phil Almeroth The Royals gridders end-ed their season on a sour note last Saturday with a 42-23 loss to Augsburg. The Auggies scored early and often, and a late rally by Bethel was not enough to catch them. The Auggies took the advantage on the first play of the game, returning the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown. The Roy-als could not move the ball on offense and had to punt. Aided by a 34-yard run, the Auggies moved in to score, the last yard corn-ing on a quarterback sneak by Steve Yeazle, giving Augsburg a 14-0 lead. In the second quarter, the Auggies scored again to take a 21-0 lead 'before Bethel finally got on the scoreboard. The big play in the Bethel drive was a 65-yard run by Brad Flater, bringing the ball down to the 15-yard line. Jim An-erstrom threw a pass to Pete Kramka in the end zone but the play was nul-lified by a penalty against the Royals. Anderstrom was sacked on the next play, and it looked like the Royals were out of scoring range. But a screen to Fla ter brought, the ball back to the 10-yard line. On fourth down, Anderstrom hit Ken Cooper for a touchdown to bring the score to 21-7. The Auggies brought the ball downfield again, aid-ed by a pass-interference penalty against the Roy-als. A four-yard touch-down run gave Augsburg a 28-7 halftime lead. The Royals missed a good scoring opportunity early in the second half. Doug Hill ran for 40 yards down to the Augsburg 19- yard line. But Anderstrom's fourth down pass to Kram-ka was deflected at the' five-yard line. The Auggies went down the field again, the big plays being two passes: one for 15 and one for 20 yards. Halfback Joe Roth scored his third touchdown of the game, lifting the Auggies' lead to 35-7. Augs-burg upped their score to 42-7 on a three-yard run by Yeazle after the Aug-gies had used a fake field goal on fourth down for a first down. Bethel scored twice in the last seven minutes of the game. The first touch-down on a four-yard pass from Anderstrom to Brian Johnson. Anderstrom ran for a two-point conversion to make the score 42-15, Augsburg. The Royals' last touchdown of the season came on a six-yard pass from Anderstrom to Kram-ka. Anderstrom ran again for two points to make the final score Augsburg 42, Bethel 23. This was the last game for nine Royal seniors. They are co-captains Paul Carl-son and Jim Anderstrom, Scott Engstrom, Paul Lind-berg, Dave Moberg, Bob Goebel, Rich Graves, Kelly "Bando" Brandes and Mark Johnson.

Trainer Neil Dutton impressed with Bethel Hockey low on strength but high on enthusiasm Neil Dutton is Bethel's new athletic trainer this year. Dut-ton hopes to get more student trainers involved this year (photo by Dan Velie). by Shari Goddard Bethel's hockey team be-gins its season with an away game against Eau Claire Nov. 22. Tonight they play a pre-season game against alumni at Columbia Arena. The team and coaches said that they are looking forward to this season with their first full-time coach and a new,- young team. "We're going to have a little more depth than in the past," said Steve Kettelkamp, senior forward. When Coach Dahl was asked what the team's strengths were, he said, "None. No, our strength has been in our enthusi-asm and our willingness to work hard." He pointed out that the youth of the team, 34 members with only three seniors and 20 freshmen and transfers, hold promise for the corn-ing years. Kevin Hadlich, a team captain, said that there is a positive attitude among the team and the coaches and a "new commitment toward God from the play-ers." Dahl said, "My philoso-phy is a little different from most athletic philos-ophies: Strive to play to your best ability with real inner motivation. I believe that that's what God wants. When you become motivated internally, then things happen." Dahl down-plays the vio-lence of hockey. "I've played both hockey and foot-ball and I think football is the more violent." He hopes to train the Bethel team along European standards, with an emphasis on grace, strength and intelligence, rather than brute strength. The MIAC rules state that fighting will lead to a forfeit of two games by a player. Dahl stretched that ban to three games for any Bethel student who starts a fight. The team started prac-ticing earlier this year than in past years. They began off-ice training at the be-ginning of the school year and started skating a month ago. All home games will be played at Columbia Arena. "We're optimistic," Ket-telkamp said. "Craig Dahl is going to pull the team together." |
