Fieldhouse planned for fall '82
by Shari Goddard
By the fall of 1982, Be-thel
hopes to have com-pleted
the shell of a field-house,
the initial stage in a
multi-million dollar sports
complex on the south cam-pus.
"The green dot reminds
me that God is in it," said
athletic coordinator George
Henry as he pointed to a
dot on his watch. He said
it also reminds him to pray
for the project. The dot is
one way fundraiser Brian
Kluth adopted to raise
awareness of the $1.5 mil-lion
project.
The $1.5 million will pay
for the floor, walls, ceil-ing,
light and heat of the
new fieldhouse. As more
money comes in, building
will continue until the
structure includes class-rooms,
pi'actice courts,

Tuition costs, fuel costs,
food prices. Inflation hits
from all angles. To help
better understand the na-ture
of Bethel's increases,
the Clarion today begins
an eight-part series of an
in-depth story on Bethel's
budget. The first half of
the series will explore Be-thel's
revenue sources,
while the last half will
document the way in which
Bethel's $13.7 million bud-get
is spent.
Part 1 in a series of 8.
Inflationary increases
within the past few years
usually signal bad news
for everyone. Tuition, fuel
costs and operating ex-penses
are all on the rise.
Yet the bright spot among
increases is this: gift in-come
is also on the rise.
John Sahlin, regional rep-resentative
director of dev-elopment,
is optimistic
about Bethel's gift income.
"Last year, in fiscal 1979-
80, Bethel raised $2,237,867
in total gift and grant in-come.
This includes both
restricted and non-restrict-ed
gift income. This year
we expect about $2.5 mil-locker
rooms, practice
rooms and a six-lane 200-
meter indoor track. Kluth
said builders will add to
the fieldhouse's outer shell
as money becomes avail-able.
While the planned field-house
will serve as prac-tice
area, teams will con-tinue
using the Robertson
- P.E. Center as their game
site. According -to Henry,
the present heavy use of
the P.E. center doesn't al-low
time for students to
recreate. The new field-house
schedule will in-clude
specific times for un-structured
activities. The
indoor track can open for
jogging as soon as the shell-structure
is completed.
Though included on the
list of Bethel's building pro-jects,
the project actually
started when Henry ap-proached
three men and
lion for fiscal 1980-81." A
fiscal year runs from May
31 to June 1 of the follow
ing year.
Sahlin explained restric-tive
income as money desig-na
led by donors for spe-cific
projects or budgets,
such as money earmarked
for the science- annex. The
college uses unrestricted
money in its general fund,
and is applied where need-ed.
Restricted income is run-ning
well above last year's
asked them to contribute
to the fieldhouse. Their com-bined
gifts were enough to
justify asking a site com-mittee
to come in for an
environmental impact stu-dy
and specific plans for
the south campus complex.
When the whole south
campus is complete, it will
include the fieldhouse, sta-ditim
and a network of
multi-purpose fields. By
leaving existing tree groves
and planting others, Henry
said they hope to preserve
the beauty of the campus.
"We're trying to preserve
the campus' undulating
hills," he added with a
smile.
Kluth, hired specifically
for this project's fund rais-ing,
said his job is going
well. Of those few ap-proached,

income was
$778,303. So far this year,
we've already received
$837,000, and we still have
four months left in this
fiscal year."
Sahlin said the science
annex has already received
$430,000 in restricted funds
for the current fiscal year.
Last year's total was
$358,000. The college is
currently only $158,000

ple that would have me or
anyone else fired for not
meeting those expecta-tions.
Tenure protects us
frnm that. Tenured facul-ty
can not be fired without
due process. If you could
trust people to behave
rationally and decently,
then tenure wouldn't be
necessary."
Tenure establishes a
series of safeguards and
requires that faculty go
through certain processes
to justify dismissal.
Some instructors op-pose
tenure on philosophi-cal
grounds. "Those people,"
said Fauth, "oppose the
outside view of tenure—
that of lifetime employ-ment.
In some ways tenure
can be the last refuge for
the scoundrel."

"Paul felt very strongly
about wanting to get his
story into words," said
Gene Kremin, free-lance
writer. He put together the
15-day series about Paul
Greeley, former Bethel alum-nus,
which began in the
Minneapolis Star on Mon-day,
Feb. 23.
Greely graduated from
Bethel's pre-med program
in 1977. In 1975, he found
out that he had acute lym-

someone is going to go bad
it doesn't happen over-night."

The banquet will be on

the Bethel food service,
just as last year. Marilyn

said, "Last year was very

Security system
simplistic at best
The general feeling would have Bethel needing more
and better security. The one-manned guard shack, with
a half-moon painted on the door for aesthetic purposes,
just does not make the mark for top-notch security on a
multi-million-dollar campus. So they say.
But those responsible for the amount of security on
Bethel's campus would have us believe that there is
no need for additional security measures. This year has
been quiet with regard to theft, break-ins and general
security disturbances. The problems that have oc-curred
have been instigated by Bethel's own students,
and as a result administrators do not feel there is a
serious demand.
Directo,r of Physical Plant Jim Woods said, "it would
be a desirable thing (to have more security) but it is
somewhat over and beyond our present needs (to get
more)." The administration admits that some might
argue that there cannot be too much security, but there
have been no additional funds appropriated to augment
it.
Bethel's head groundsman Ron Sprecher is going to
a campus security seminar in April. There are measures
being taken to keep abreast of college trends, it appears.
But if one looks around at other local private colleges,
Bethel is far behind.
For example, St. Thomas has an armed guard outside
of the women's dorm after ten every evening. If a vis-itor
wants to enter the dorm s/he must give the guard
the name of the woman being visited and the guard will
call her to okay the visitor's entrance. Bethel's dorms
are more easily accessible to visitors, particularly if
visitors are on foot, because the security man on duty
each night stops only vehicles.
Security men do turn away cars who try to enter the
campus without proper identification. License numbers
of those cars that are allowed on campus and are not
Bethel-registered are noted at the guard shack. The
security guard also patrols the grounds every one and a
half to two hours.
It is not our intent to put down the efforts which
Bethel does make. We are not suggesting that planned,
future efforts, such as the campus security seminar, are
in vain. We only present the facts to ask why there is
neither desire nor funding to strengthen Bethel's secur-ity
force. (Can one guard outdoors and one indoors be
called a force?)
Bethel has poured millions of dollars into building
and maintaining this campus. It has also invested thou-sands
of dollars in student recruitment. The physical
value of these grounds alone merit increased security.
Add to that the value of each community member's
life....
Security may be like life insurance. You don't realize
it's value until you need it but don't have it.

Approximately 700 peo-ple
filled the Hamline Uni-versity
Ballroom, await-ing
discussion on religion
and politics. Sparks of
personal belief flamed
as the Unitarian Uni-
Versalist minister, Rev-erend
Kohren Arisian, and
the Baptist preacher, Rev-erend
Richard Angwin
discussed personal views
Tuesday, Feb. 17.
The basic conflict dis-cussedwas
the pluralistic
secular humanist versus
the absolutist fundamen-tal
Christian. Arisian
spoke for the former and
Angwin for the latter.
Arisian, minister at the
First Unitarian Society of
the things that affect peo-ple's
lives the most." He
explained how topics with
opposing viewpoints tend
to draw more readership.
"Beef issues can't be some-thing
everyone agrees on,"
he said.
A good purpose for the
Beef Board, in Master-john's
opinion, is the ex-posure
of conflicting ideas
which simply make peo-ple
think. He regularly
scans the board because it
seems somewhat indica-tive
of general Bethel atti-tudes,
even though only a
minority expresses itself.
Tony Anderson was
asked why he reads the
board frequently. "It's one
of the few places alterna-tive
opinions are ex-pressed,"
he commented,
after comparing the board
to Luther's Wittenburg
door.
Recently Anderson dis-_
covered the difficulties
with a controversial pos-ter.
The Student Affairs
office hesitated to grant
permission due to the pos-ter's
content: the Christian
conscience and the pay-ment
of war taxes. He fin-ally
got the okay, but/
knew that his only other
hope was the Beef Board.
"I just enjoy looking for
humor in it," chuckled
Dave Blumberg, a junior
:ommuter. He is just one
of many who savor the sil-liness
of various beefs•be-
'.ween serious classes.

Minneapolis, spoke first.
His concern was for the
preservation of democra-cy
and equality. "We must
resist domination of author-itarianistic
absolutists,"
said Arisian. "It kills de-mocracy.
We must remain
a secular democracy."
He spoke of the "impe-rialistic
attitude of Chris-tianity"
and the "Protest-ant
Empire." He also said
that "any religion reduces
itself to nullify when on
television it is just another
talk show or interest
group."
Arisian asked the ques-tion,
"If public policy is to
be based on God's law,
which god?" He ended up
saying, "The spirit of lib-erty
is the spirit that is not
good to state differences
of opinion," said senior
Kathy Lambrides, "but
how many writers would
speak what they wrote to
the art teachers, for in-stance?"
The problem, as
she sees it, is that people
vent their biases through
emotional pens before know-ing
enough facts.
Yes, every now and
then a bomb explodes on
campus and the Beef Board
gets targeted with ammu-nition
from all sides.
Words combat words like
shields and swords clang-ing
against each other. .
Be it Reagan, or hot wa-ter,
or why Bethel guys
do not ask girls out (which
got a four-pager last fall),
or responses to the art
vandalism, the board
bears the brunt of heavy
artillery.
Fortunately the thick
air of the battlefield is re-lieved
by notes saying "I
lost my car keys!", or graf-fiti
in the margins, or just
the word "Nixon" written
everywhere.

too sure it is right."
The purpose of the Uni-tarian
Universalist Church
is to facilitate the com-munity
in discovering as
individuals what truth
means to each person. The
church is concerned about
current issues.
Frank Meyer, assistant
professor of mathematics
at Bethel who attended
the discussion, described
a Unitarian as "one who
believes in at most one
God and that man is the
measure of all things."
The source of knowledge
is in man. A Unitarian
explained himself as a
"philosophical humanist
and ethical." The social
function of the church is
also important.
Arisian received a hear-ty
applause after his
speech. There were repre-sentatives
in the crowd
from various. Unitarian
Universalist chUrches in
the Twin Cities area.
A graduate of Luther
College, Decora, Ia., said,
"I've heard Arisian before,
and he has a find mind. He
presents himself logi-cally."
Angwin pastors Tem-ple
Baptist, St. Paul, and
was a panelist on the
Town Meeting which fol-lowed
the television spe-cial
"One Nation Under
God." He began his speech
by professing that he be-lieved
in the Bible as the
holy and inspired word of
God and that he was a
born-again Christian. He
then read I Corinithians
1:25, which says, "For the
foolishness of God is wi-ser
than men, and the
weakness of God is strong-pledged
at total of $237,000.
A matching grant (a grant
given only after Bethel
raises the same amount as
the grant) of $575,000 from
the Bush Foundation may
go completely to the field-house,
though there's a
chance some of it may go
toward the science wing.
It's Bethel's goal to have
40 per cent of the needed
money by April 1, 1981, in
order to nationally an-nounce
the project. Kluth
said that to announce it
before then would leave
too wide a gap between
announcement and comple-tion
of the project, thereby
discouraging donors.
er than men."
Angwin stated that he
agreed with Arisian in
that the government al-ready
has too much power
and control. It was for that
very reason Angwin said
that he was involved in
politics and has the right
to petition his beliefs.
Angwin's speech cen-tered
around his reasons
for involvement in the
"New Right." They in-cluded
-I) absence of un-wise
use of law, 2) the
absolute failure of plural-istic
thought, 3) a political
hunger for the wisdom of
the Word of God, 4) moral-ity
is broader than any
one faith, and 5) the re-sults
if moral people are
not involved in politics.
The statement that re-ceived
the most response
from the audience was
that the purpose of gov-ernment
is to restrain peo-ple
from sin.
An animated time of
questions and answers
followed the speeches.
Most questions were di-rected
to Angwin. People
often did not limit them-selves
to questions but in-stead
gave speeches which
brought comments from
within the audience. Laugh-ter
was often the response
to Angwin's reasoning
and discussion.
One college student's
response was "I didn't like
Angwin. He didn't answer
the questions. I don't be-lieve
what he believes."
Another woman called
Angwin "an illogical
boob."
The junior class of Ham-line
University sponsored
the evening.

the shell of the fieldhouse,

enough money comes in to

campus complex. I'm pos-itive
there's someone out
there who has one or two
million dollars and doesn't
know where to spend it,"
he said.
Kluth said that "one big
donor" is probably a myth
of development. "You al-ways
dream of the mil-lions,
but the people who
will really give are those
who love you and know
you," he said. Gifts so far
haye ranged from a single
$147,000 gift to a tithe of
$8 per month.

"The whole point -is to

and Christians feel about
each other," said Dr. Ar-thur
Lewis about an up-coming
interfaith confer-ence
in Minneapolis. Le-wis,
a Bethel Old Testa-ment
professor, has work-ed
since last fall to help
put the program together.
"I really don't think
there's ever been anything
quite like it before," he
said. The conference,
March 1-2, pulls in speak-ers
from Protestant, Cath-olic,
Jewish and Evangeli-cal
circles.
The program will begin
at 7 p.m., Sunday, March
1, when two nationally
known keynote speakers
address the conference.
After their speeches, a pa-nel,
of which Lewis is a
member, will question
them. The audience may
also ask questions.
Asking questions is a
large part of the confer-ence.
Monday, March 2,
has time for morning and
afternoon workshops on
Christian/Jewish con-cerns.
People may choose
from workshops on topics
ranging from reaction to
the holocaust to what Jews
and Christians teach their
youth about each other.

for the conference. Groups
as diverse as Bethel Col-lege,
The Episcopal Dio-cese

the Billy Graham Evange-listic

quiet times and then have
small group discussions.
After lunch, the partici-pants
go out for beach evan-gelism.
"People on the

Reagan's proposed cuts
affect average citizen
The highlights of President Reagan's budget
proposals are listed below. Almost all of them
need congressonal approval (reprinted from
the Minneapolis Tribune):
• Federal spending for fiscal 1982, which beg-ins
Oct. 1, would be $695.5 billion, or $41.4
billion below the amount called for in the Car-ter
budget. But with receipts for fiscal 1982
estimated at $650.5 billion, there would still be
a deficit of $45 billion.
• Individual taxes on income from wages and
salaries would be cut by an average of about 9
percent a year for three years, beginning July
1. Business taxes would he reduced, retroac-tive
to Jan. 1, in an effort to spur the economy
by allowing businesses increased deductions
for the cost of buildings, vehicles and equip-ment.
• Military spending would increase by $7.2
billion, bringing the military's share of the
budget from 24.1 percent to 32.4 percent in
1984.
• Social programs such as Social Security,
Medicare and veterans' benefits would be pre-served,
although some would have tighter elig-ibility
requirements. There would be funding
cuts in programs for public-service jobs, food
stamps, student loans, welfare and school
lunches.

We asked our senators...
Do you agree with President Reagan's budget proposals?
Nal
Larus Maxwell, junior
senator:
I believe they are via-ble
proposals, but I don't
agree with the 10X (all. I
think the spending cuts
will bring about a reduc-tion
ill the money flow,
and therefore a reduction
in inflation. The tax cuts,
however, will counteract,
in part Or in whole, any
effect the spending cuts
would have in reducing
the money flow.
Sandy Erickson, senator-at-
large:
I agree with the propo-sals,
generally. I think
Reagan is cutting the bud-get
in student loans be-cause
smile funds are
misused. Before s I uden t s
can complain about it.
they should re-evaluate
their own use of econo-
171 ic resources.
Marilyn Eliason, fresh-man
senator:
His overall program is
good. Its difficult to see
the student loans get cut,
but I can see where that
might be necessary. We
all have to give up some-thing.
Leslie Schirm, sopho-more
senator:
I agree with most of
Reagan's proposals, espe-cially
the part about bus-iness
tax cuts. Busi-nesses
have been hurt by
taxes, but this should
help business, and in
turn will help create
jobs.
Todd Magnuson, senior
senator:
I like parts of it, but
other parts bother me.
The size of the increase
in the defense budget is
too large it's a little too
much, when other pro-grams
are being cut.
There's a need for reduc-tion,
but It's sad when
the reduction comes from
the lower income people
who can't afford it.
Peter Franzen, senator-at-
large:
I agree with the idea of
cutting the spending to
meet the income. The mil-itary
is getting too much
money, though. It needs
to be better controlled
financially. Poor people
will be hurt quite a bit by
the budget cuts. The farm
policies he's chosen will
not be to the advantage
of a large segment of the
population who backed
him.

42,
My soggy bed is a small stranded island. I burrow my
face into my pillow as into the dry sand of a beach. Empti-ness
gnaws my mind like hunger pangs to a starving
stomach. I look in every direction: water, water, more
water.
"0, God. Look!" Sharks surface their bladed fins; my
own fears, doubts, loneliness and confusion encircle
me. Just the sight of them poisons me with power-lessness.
"What a time to be stuck out in this ocean! I can't
afford to waste time. I mean, I got people to see, projects
to finish, books to read, meetings to attend. Who will
deliver me back to my real life?"
I pray my jaw shivers from clamped teeth. "Lord,
Send a helicopter, a huge osprey, anything to lift me.
away. I can't bear to be alone! I can't face these sharks!"
For two hours my binocular-like eyes scan the full
horizon. No engine purrs, no wings, nothing.
As discouragement gives way to anger, I yank clown
the island's only palm tree (no thicker than a bed-post)
and swat the sharks like flies. But trying to rid them
only lures more fatal fins to the surface.
Exhausted as a netted fish trying to flip itself out of a
boat, I hurl the tree javelin-style. Seeing that I cut down
my sole means of shade, my face begins to frown like a
catfish mouth. To divert my thoughts I invent a rock-toss
game which amuses me for an hour or so.
Selah.
The stirring waters soon draw my attention as the
inverted grey spatulas dash around. "Now I know what
the Arc de la Triumphe in Paris feels like during rush
hour," I muttered.
A most timely melancholic mood falls on me to screen
over the present. Sitting limply, I close my eyes. Memo-ries
repaint a lush green meadow I roamed through
with a girl from down the road. We were both eight. I
smile. I then soar years ahead, coloring up a honeymoon
scene in the same meadow. My breathing calms.
Quickly, my eyes pop open as if someone tapped my
shoulder. "An angel!" I pivot like lightening. No one.
Dorsal fins still sail with great vigor.
"Stop playing games with me!" my yell gushes out.
Dead silence swallows my cry. Dusk was dawning.
Fatigue weighed on me like an iron yoke. Reluctantly, I
gave up all hopes of being rescued.
Selah.
About the time I faintly saw the evening star, a
strange thing perked me up. I watched a shark lunge
above the surface. "Wait a second," I whispered while
squinting. "That looked more like a porpoise or a dol-phin
than a shark."
I sprang to my feet. Another light grey creature
leaped over the waves and confirmed my notion. Yet I
knew sharks still prevailed, for some never surfaced for
air. Whatever, the more I concentrated on the dorsal
fins, be t hem friend or foe, the more my restless feelings
melted down.
After much contemplation, a trustworthy impulse
led me into the cold water. I waded up to my neck. "I
must be crazy!" My whole body cringed as hideous fins
swooshed by. Underneath it felt like trucks racing by
while you're hitch-hiking. "There's actually sharks out
here!" Such vivid vulnerability made me back up.
Just then a massive rubbery beast nosed between my
legs and saddled me behind its dorsal fins. Stunned, I
seized the fin like the mane of a wild bronco. As we
glided forward, the force of the top-water nearly threw
me off.
The more I got used to the ride, the less tightly I
clinged and the higher we rose. To my surprise, I was
filled with joy, feeling free as a sea gull as the wind and
spray few by. As my new comrade sped ahead, time
itself was shed behind. "It's all too good to be true. I
could travel like this forever! I must be dreaming."
Just then I stirred on my soggy bed, rubbing sand out
of my eyes. "Aughh! Now I won't know where my ocean
guide was taking me." And then it hit me: I was not
dreaming in my dream.
As an eagle that molts away its old feathers, I felt
rejuvenated. It was late afternoon.

An international collec-tion
of graphic art work
will soon go on display in
Bethel's gallery. Thirty-five
posters from Japan,
Italy, Poland, France, the
U.S., Czechoslovakia and
other countries will be in
the March 2-24 showing.
Bethel borrowed them

annex. "That is," he said,
"if we raise the amount by
May 15. The Kresge Foun-dation
has promised to pay
the last $150,000 of the
costs, providing Bethel
raises the rest before the
deadline. Otherwise, we'll
have to pick up those costs,
too." Sahlin said the col-lege
should have no prob-lems
raising the money.
Yet gift income is not
immune to the gloom of
tuition and operating cost
increases. Last year's non-restricted
income did not
keep up with the inflation
rate.
"Our non-restricted bud-get
last year fell far short
of our goal," Sahlin said.
Last year's goal for non-restricted
income was
$1,821,000, but Bethel re-ceived
only $1,459,564.
"This year, as of January
31, our non-restricted in-come
is currently running
$48,853 short of our pro-jected
goal of $1,940,500."
Of the funds allocated
in the non-restricted bud-get,
the largest portion of
money is spent on faculty
salaries. Operational costs
such as -heating, electric-ity,
maintenance and gar-bage
collection, also re-ceive
a large portion.
Gift income in the non-restricted
• budget comes
from a variety of sources,
but Bethel's Baptist Gen-eral
Conference churches
donate a large percentage.
They give $1 million of the
estimated $1.9 million bud-get.

The Guthrie's produc-tion
of Macbeth is, as one
person has put it, very
straightforward. Unlike
last year's Romeo and Ju-liet,
which was interpret-ed
to include modern mu-sic
and dancing, this ver-sion
of Macbeth is very
traditional. But this fact
takes nothing away from
the play because in its tra-ditional
form it has a very
strong message.
First I had better make
phic designers since 1970.
Subject matter varies from
cultural events to social
problems, such as abor-tion.
The posters make
use of techniques in pho-tography,
illustration and
topography (designing
with letter-types to try to
add meaning to a word).
While large cities often
hold graphic art exhibi-tions,
Johnson said it is
rare for small colleges to
have them. "I don't think
we've ever had a show like
this before," he said.

some confessions. For one,
I have to admit to not
being "into" Shakespeare,
so anything I have ,to say
comes from a very limited
background. Fortunately,
I think most of you are in
the same situation.
Next, I found out after-wards
that one of the keys
to enjoying Shakespeare
is to be totally awake and
pay attention to every line
(unless you have seen or
read the play three times
or more). I have to admit
to not doing the above.
The story tells of Mac-beth,
a Scottish general,
who has become a hero
after defeating a rebel, Mac-donwald
and helping to
defeat the advancing Nor-wegian
army. While return-ing
to their homes he and
Banquo, another general,
meet three witches who
prophesy that Macbeth
will acquire another royal
title and eventually be-come
king. They also pro-phesy
that Banquo will be
the father of kings, but not
a king himself. One of
these prophecies is quick-ly
fulfilled when Macbeth
receives his title upon his
return. The fulfillment of
this prophecy leads to Mac-beth
and his lady taking
action to insure the actual-izing
of the second.
When King Duncan vis-its
their home, probably to
thank Macbeth, he is killed
in his sleep by Macbeth,
who also kills the two
guards. Macduff, another
nobleman, find the dead
king and the king's sons
are suspected of the mur-der
so they flee to Eng-land.
Macbeth becomes
king, but things disinte-grate
quickly when Ban-quo
begins to suspect the
truth, and Macbeth has
him killed. In line with the
prophecy, though, his son
escapes.
In the final scene of the
first act Macbeth sees the
ghost of Banquo and loses
control in front of his din-ner
guests. This disquiets
him and his guests, so he
decided to visit the witch-es
again.
As the second act opens
the three witches are chant-ing
around a fiery caldron
("Double, double toil and
trouble, fire burn and cal-
(Iron bubble"). When Mac-beth
arrives they conjure
up three apparitions that
tell him to fear Macduff,
that "none of woman born
shall harm Macbeth" and
that he will be king until
Birnam Wood comes to Dun-sinane
Hall, his home.
Macbeth leaves the en-counter
very confident, but
finds on his return that
Macduff has fled to Eng-land.
So Macbeth has Mac-duff's
family murdered.
Macduff joins with Mal-colm,
the intended heir to
the throne, and they plan
to overthrow Macbeth. As
the play nears its end the
witch's prophecies slowly
come to pass, and justice
is finally served.
The story is excellent
and has a lot to say about
power and its corruption,
but personally, I was dis-appointed.
The play is
billed as being very evil,
as are Sir and Lady Mac-beth,
yet the play seldom
portrays evil. Instead pure
violence is the essence of
the play. Maybe I'm mak-ing
too fine a distinction,
but there is a distinction
to be made. There are few
truly dark of black scenes,
the set is designed in grays
and the lighting is too of-ten
colorful when it should
help portray the blackness
of the play.
Even though disappoint-ed,
I would recommend
that you see it. If you have
seen little of Shakespeare
it is a great chance to see a
classic in traditional style.
For those who are "into"
Shakespeare you can't
pass up a chance like this.

every 20 to 25 years. This
pattern has held steady
for more than a century.

3. C. In less than 50 years,
humans will have used all
the coal, oil, and gas that
was formed by nature

4. C. In 1970, before the
Arab oil embargo, the
United States obtained
12% of its electricity from
oil-powered plants. In
1978, oil was responsible
for 21% of U.S. electricity.
5. B. There are approxi-mately
15 million Ameri-can
homes needing attic
insulation.
6. C. Energy is lost in sev-eral
steps, from producing
the crude oil to refining to
gasoline transport to en-gine
thermal efficiency to
engine mechanical effici-ency
to rolling efficiency.
The total efficiency of the
system is 6%.
7. A. When uranium is
fissioned to generate elec-tricty
at a reactor site,
only a small portion is
used. If reprocessed and
used in breeder reactors, it
can be recycled many
times and a far greater
portion of the ore itself
utilized.
8. A. Fluorescent lights
emit three to four times as
much light per watt of
electricity as incandescent
bulbs. One 40-watt fluo-rescent
light gives more
light than three 60-watt
incandescents.
9. C. Because pilot lights
burn continuously they
take about half of the gas
used in the gas stove.
10. C. Aluminum uses a

Senior college status.
Students attending Be-thel
in the 1946-47 school
year played a very promi-nent
role in determining
the college's focus in its
early years as a senior
school: they helped decide
which majors would be
offered at Bethel.
Students "have been
asked to indicate on ques-tionnaires
the majors in
which they are interested,
so that suitable subjects
may be offered for the
third year's work which is
to be added this fall," said
the Clarion.
Dean C.E. Carlson said,
"The board had decided to
proceed at once with the
organization of senior col-lege
work and to offer
work at a third year level
when the new school year
opened." The fourth level
was to be added in the
1948 -49 school year.
The administration was
planned for the new curricu-lum,
considering which
majors the college would
offer when the new pro-gram
began. Subject areas
most likely to be offered
as majors included "philo-sophy,
psychology, socio-logy,
English, history,
speech or communica-tions,
education and reli-gious
education," indi-cated
the article.

following story:
"Twenty-five years ago
in (the Rev. Turnwall's)
student days, women were
to be allowed in the semi-nary
for the first time. The
General Conference had
so voted. Dr. Lagergren of
the seminary was op-posed,
but he knew he
must conform.
"At the opening session
of his class in theology in
which three women were
registered, the good doc-tor
set the scene for a
pitched battle. Arranged
in a semi-circle at the
front of the class were just
enough chairs for the men
in the class. They were
each assigned one chair.
"At the rear of the room
were three other chairs.
As the women entered, Dr.
Lagergren said, 'The wo-men
will take the three
seats at the rear of the
room.' "
Dischinger said the
shocking aspect of the sto-ry
was that it was now
viewed with humor, where-as
"only a few short years
ago...serious minded
young men called councils
of war to combat this ris-ing
liberal tendency.
"Not so today," he con-tinued.
"The rich heritage
of the past is forgotten and
the imminent danger of
the near future is ignored.
I trust it may never hap-pen
again, but I call upon
our men to think seriously
of a day not long hence
when three young men
may enter a class in theol-ogy
and be asked to take
seats at the rear of the

Lutton enjoys R.D.
position, co-ed life
by Ginny Olson
Complete with cowboy
•boots, Dawn Lutton came
from Rocky Mountain Col-lege
in Montana to be the
resident director of Ed-gren
dorm at Bethel. Her
husband, Dud, is the new
football coach. At Bethel,
she is not just an RD but
also a part-time social
work secretary and the
cheerleading advisor.
What does the position
of RD mean? In the chain
of authorities, "I'm over
the RAs. I'm also a mother-away-
from-home, a refer-ral
agent." She • said she
wanted to be an RD be-cause
she wanted to be a
part of the campus. "I have
a real interest in people ...
I'm thankful to be a part of
the campus in this way,"
said Lutton.
"I see Bethel as being
one of the finest Christian
liberal arts colleges. There
are opportunities here for
all dimensions of people."
Lutton said that there is a
diversity here, but it needs
to be built upon. There are
minorities of all types.
"Even if all the minorities
are small, they should be
encouraged."
She spoke of older stu-dents
as a "minority group."
she said, "There are sev-eral
older students here. It
should be made a positive
place for them. Bethel
should be socially adap-table
for any type of stu-dent.
That way, other stu-dents
can benefit from
them."
Lutton was also an RD
at Rocky Mountain Col-lege,
where she was in-volved
with a women's
dorm. She enjoys being in
A co-ed situation here.
"One thing I'd like to see
changed in the dorms is
the visitation policy in the
lounges. Visiting is impor-tant
in a co-ed residence;
the students should be able
to utilize that. I would like
to see the lounges open all
the time. So there's not a
free-for-all, maybe hire a
night monitor. There are
other alternatives," she
said.
Lutton's enjoyment of
the co-ed life was evident
when she was an active
encourager in Edgren
lounge the night of the Nik
Dag "hunt." she encourages
students not only in the
area of guy-girl relation-ships
but also as individ-uals.
Along with the job comes
the role of disciplinarian,
which never comes easy.
But Lutton, in her Mon-tana
cowboy boots, takes
it in stride.

Mitch Duininck scored
on the last shot of a sud-den
victory shootout to
give the Lords of The Rink
a 1-0 win over the Rinks
Rats in the I.M. broomball
championship game. The
40-minute regulation time
ended with the score tied
up at 0-0. The teams went
to a ten -minute overtime
period which also ended
scoreless. A shoot-out en-sued
with both teams be-ing
given five shots to
goal. The Rink Rats failed
to score on their five shots,
and Duininck poked home
his last opportunity to
give the Lords the win.

The Royals were also
defeated by top ranked
Augsburg last week, 9 -5.
Coach Craig Dahl com-mented,
"We played better
than the score indicates.
There was only a six-shot
difference in shots on goal;
we knocked off twenty
shots from the last time
we played. We played
much better than in the
past; there was a lot of
improvement."

Royal B-13 wins thriller in overtime
by Becky Dye
The Royals completed
another frustrating week
of hockey last Friday, los-ing
to St. Mary's, 9-3.
First period action be-gan
at mid-period with St.
Mary's scoring. Bethel an-swered
that score within
30 seconds on a goal by
Captain Scott Johnson, as-sisted
by Dave Johnson
and Peter Dahl. Dahl
brought the puck down
the ice single-handedly,
against three St. Mary's
defensemen, to set up the
goal. St. Mary's scored sev-eral
minutes later and left
the score 2-2 at the close of
the first period.
Second period action
was a repeat of the pre-vious
week's game against
St. Thomas. Bethel was
shut out, and St. Mary's
rallied to a 7-1 lead.
The third period, how-ever,
did not hold last

The men's basketball
team ran their record to 4-
0 under the special assist-,
ant 'Coach of the Week'
Keith Tekautz in winning
two MIAC contests last
week.
The Royals topped the
St. Mary's Redmen at the
Robertson P.E. Center in
the year's second overtime
win, by a 91-87 margin.
With just seconds left in
regulation time, both
teams had a chance to pull
the game out. But Greg
Edlund was called for car-rying
the .ball and St.
Mary's could not get a
basket on the ensuing in-bounds
play.
The Royals had one last
chance, but Mike Hanley's
shot rolled off. The game
went into overtime with
the score tied at 81. The
teams traded baskets in
the extra session, until Jeff
Westlund's clutch free
throws with six seconds
left clinched the 91-87 vic-tory.
Andre LaBerge led
the Royals with 20 points
and played a strong game.
Griffin dominated the
scoring by dunking 16
points and blocking 12
shots. Beth Karsjens
scored 15 points for the
Royals and grabbed 14 re-bounds,
while Deb Sen-sion
scored 13 points.
"Both JoAnn and Beth did
a fine job. JoAnn did an
outstanding job on de-fense
and Beth did a good
job on the boards," said
LaRock.
Wednesday Bethel de-feated
Hamline 71-64.
Both Griffin and Karsjens
scored 16 points each for
the Royals.
Stipe finished third
with 3156 points, and
Constable sixth with 2923

Edlund and Hanley each

half. •
Following that game the
Royal 'five' travelled to
Moorhead to take on the

The Royal basketball
team improved their over- .
all record to 11-8 by de-feating
Carleton Friday,

the week.
The trip to Carleton was
