Dana Olson and Lori Peterson were chosen at homecoming to serve as this year's host and hostess. KABY resurrection fails, future airing still possible See Zeke's Zetesis Page 2 Bethel College St. Paul, Minn. Vol 54 No. 5 October 20, 1978 Four Bethel professors work onNIV translation by Mark Rentz The entire Bible in the New International Version, published this month, marks the end of a 10-year project by over a hundred scholars, including four Bethel professors. This enormous work may be one of the most significant and widely accepted Bible transla-tions into English in centuries. Already the pre-sales for the NW are above 1 million copies. The New Testament version has been available since 1973, and has justified its existence by public demand and acceptance. Bethel radio KABY will not be on the air this fall, due to lack of space and lack of a faculty ad-visor. If the station were to be aired, it would need to use the office that Dr. Roy Wilbee is presently using, and at this time no other space is available. Last Tuesday, the Senate mov- The four Bethel professors are Dr. Arthur Lewis and Dr. Walter Wessel of the College, and Dr. Donald Madvig and Dr. Ronald Youngblood of the Seminary. Dr. Youngblood has since last spring taken the position of dean-elect of the Wheaton Graduate School. Dr. Wessel, the first of the Bethel professors to be involved on the project, is professor of Bib-lical studies and worked on the New Testament portion. Dr. Lewis, professor of Bible and theology, and Dr. Ronald ed to table the bill, and KABY's establishment will be postponed indefinitely. Senate and admini-stration will still need to approve the bill before the radio station will be on the air. The earliest KABY could be on the air would be next semester, when the offices in the new annex will be completed. Youngblood, professor of Old Testament were both involved in the Old Testament portion. Dr. Madvig, professor of Old Testament, was one of the few translators to work on both the Old and New Testaments. "The NIV," said Dr. Lewis, "was begun with the aim of becoming the standard edition for public worship." Dr. Edwin Palmer, the execu-tive secretary of the translation committee (as interviewed in the October "Eternity"), explained by Beth Rainbow A plus and minus grading policy has been approved by faculty members, although con-verting to the system this year is financially impossible. Dwight Jessup, director of academic af-fairs, said the change has been "put on hold" until Bethel can accommodate the cost. The data processing firm, which handles Bethel's grades, estimates that making the change would cost between $2000 and $3000. "We didn't foresee that switching the computers over would cost so much," said Jes-sup. "We simply do not have that money." The new plus and minus sy-stem will be in effect when it will be financially feasible. This system will affect stu-dents' grade point averages (GPA). Such a system allows teachers to choose from these passing grades: A, A-, B+, B, B-, C + , C, C-, D + , and D. A plus increases grade points by .3, and a minus decreases grade point by 0.3. Teachers in the science and math fields, where points deter-mine grades objectively, tend to be more in favor of the policy than those in the humanities. Lynn Fauth, English literature instructor, commented, "It's difficult enough for an English teacher to assign a letter grade to a paper. Now we have to decide between degrees of letters." Jim Torgerson, vice president of the student association, said he voted in favor of the system last year as a student member of the academic policy committee be-cause students had been request-ing the plus and minus policy. how some versions are very ac-curate in their translation but use archaic and unnatural language, which often dulls the meaning. The other extreme is modern translations that are too free, too paraphrastic, so that while they are easy to read and understand, they may be deviating from the text. Sometimes accuracy and clarity are on opposite ends of the continuum, but Dr. Wessel em-phasized that, "The NW attempts a middle of the road approach. It has accuracy and clarity, without "Student opinion is generally for the new grading system," said Torgerson. "It would pro-bably only hurt people with ex-tremely high GPA's who might get A-'s and not end up with 4.0." The recommendation of the grading policy came from Philip Sackett, chairman of last year's academic policy committee. Sack-ett first introduced the system to that committee. After holding several open hearings, the academic policy committee voted in favor of the plus and minus system. The proposal was then taken to a faculty meeting, where teachers also voted to adopt it, although the vote was not unanimous. "I was strongly in favor of the plus and minus policy and I was disappointed to see it delayed this year," said Sackett. The system provides an incen-tive to students who settle for less than best effort studying. Sackett said he is eager to see the new policy carried through because, "it will stimulate students to work harder." A student can't, for example, complete the minimum amount of work for an A and still earn 4.0. Instead, 4.0 is awarded for A work, and an A- receives 3.7. "The issue is by no means dead," explained Jessup. "It may take a year or two before the system actually changes, but a definite decision to adopt the plus and minus policy has been made." Meanwhile, Bethel will either try a different data processing firm, or budget the money ahead of time. Jessup mentioned that in the future, Bethel might do its own computer work. the loss of dignity." The NIV is a new translation. All work was done by translating from the original languages. "The actual translation was fascinating," said Dr. Lewis. "It was an opportunity to do meticu-lous study in the scripture. Every word must be thought through as to how it can be communicated. "It's puzzling to find the best word equivalent in English. Sometimes hours were spent on just a word." "It was a costly and complex process," added Dr. Wessel. "The translation of a book began with a team of scholars. Their work was sent to consultants who made suggestions for improve-ment. "The translation was then re-worked and revised verse by verse by an Intermediate Edi-torial Committee. Each change was by majority vote. Then the translation was revised by a Gen-eral Editorial Committee. "During the phases of editorial work, copies of the translation were sent to various pastors, English stylists, scholars, and lay people for suggestions and criti-cism. "Then finally, the translation was revised and edited for a third time by the governing Committee on Bible Translation. Now it was ready to be included in the NIV." Another significant character-istic of the NIV is that it's a pro-duct of mainly American evangel-ical scholarship. All major deno-minations were represented. Dr. Wessel said, "We seem to be in some kind of second Golden Age of translating the Bible into English. "The first Age began with the translation of the Tyndale and ended with the King James Ver-sion (1530's-1611). A lot of trans-lations were done during this time. Intensive translation work began again in the 1920's and has con-tinued up to the present day." Is the New International Ver-sion the climax of this new Golden Age? on the inside... Hagstrom fate P. 3 Coffee shop renovation p. 4 Johnson mosaic P. 5 Homecoming defeat p. 8 Bethel initiates grading policy waits for financial feasibility I the Soapbox Student apathy on clash day criticized Opinion Maintain spirituality Ken Gowdy's chapel message on Monday served as a warning and an inspiration to the entire Bethel community. In his research of church-related colleges, he found that academic improvement in a school is related to a decline it its formal relationship with its sponsoring chur-ches. His evidence is solid and his research convincing. His message should be taken seriously. One could contend that Bethel is not like the others, that with God's help, Bethel can retain its spiritual emphasis. But the statistics are hard to refute. Gowdy quoted Jenks as saying that there has never been a rise in a college's academic standards without a concurrent drop in the religious. We believe that without continuing awareness of this probability, and a concerted effort to overcome it, Bethel's spirituality is in danger. We do not feel, however, that Gowdy is necessarily a prophet of doom. Bethel is unique among church-related colleges in Minnesota. For the past 30 years, it has retained a fairly high level of formal religious standards and strong ties to the Baptist General Conference, while gaining a reputation for strong academic standards. There are many who deserve credit and thanks for this unique posi-tion, including President Lundquist and Dean Brushaber. To anyone with even a limited contact with Lundquist, it is obvious that his priorities are spiritual. Brushaber has done an outstanding job of recruiting commited Chris-tians to Bethel's faculty. In the future, it will be these leaders (faculty and administration) who will make or break Bethel's religious stan-dards. Gowdy's message was thought provoking. We should be thankful for the spirituality of Bethel, so far. Even more, we should be aware and ready to face the possibilities for the future. Zeke's Zetesis `Beetle Collage' invaded, spies detect conspiracy by Rick Chapman On a cool and crisp October evening, two distinctive looking individuals dressed in trench coats and derbies crept slowly along an old country road. Sud-denly the shorter member of the two stopped. "There it is now, Maxwell!" "What are you talking about, Consuello?" "The sign you idiot!" "What sign?" "The 'Beetle Collage' sign. What's wrong with you, Thwack-dorf? You are aware of how important this mission is. Uncle McArty told us that the future of the nation depends on this mis-sion." "I guess I'm not concentrating too well tonight. I'm sorry Ms. Fosdick." "This is no time for apologies. This is our first clue." "How's that Consuello? Looks to me like a freak art show!" "Get with the program Max, you know that beetles are red, don't you?" "That depends. The common Eastern beetle is usually brown-ish- black, and the yellow-spotted Mountain beetle..." "Forget it, beetle brains. Now follow me down this road. It must be the entrance." Together they shuffled along the road for about a hundred yards. Maxwell ended the silence. "What's that shack, Consuello?" "I am positive that it is their secret security. This only con-firms our suspicions. But look, no one is there!" "Some security." "There must be a meeting of the executives tonight." "What executives, Consuello?" "The party executives, you know, the big-wigs." "Oh, the bald people with the fat heads!" "Never mind. Those buildings over there must be the head-quarters. We better take a look... mercy, look at those contraptions on the grass!" "I told you Consuello, that is the art show." "You fool, they will be used to destroy the minds of our children. What a sinister and evil plot!" "This one would look great in my room." "Don't be silly; remember the mission!" With that, the sleuths walked in the direction of a large structure of cement and bricks. They moved quickly, but quietly, their eyes darting from side to side. Consuello moaned. "Don't tell me the doors are locked!" "The doors are locked." "I told you not to tell me that." "But there must be another entrance." "Good thinking for once. Let's go around to the other side." Maxwell eargerly rushed be-fore and then called back. "Hurry Consuello, the door is open over here!" cont. on page 4 Dear Editor, Of about 1900 students on this campus, almost none participated in Clash Day. Why? I'm sure that a number of students forgot, and many just don't see a whole lot of value in it. With these I sympathize. How-ever, throughout the week, I kept hearing statements like "Oh, for childish!" and "Well, back to high school!" The apostle Paul, in I Corin-thians 4: 9-17, speaks of the way in which the apostles were "... made spectacle to the whole universe," how they were "... fools for Christ...," and how we should follow their example. Certainly, Clash Day was not meant to glorify Christ in parti-cular, but I think the lack of participation may be an indication of the importance Bethel students have placed on appearance. The atmosphere at Bethel is one of the most loving and ac-cepting I have ever encountered.

Bower 'ministers' in social work by Ed Scott Palmquist "I see Bethel's social work program as a challenge," said John Bower, Bethel's new chair-man of social work. Bower thinks a broad range of past experience will aide him in making Bethel's program accredited. After graduating from Bagley High School, Bower attended Moody Bible Institute. Bower also received degrees from North-western and the University of Minnesota. "Currently, I'm a doctorate candidate at Kansas State," said Bower. Bower feels that his family has moved "home," since he has worked before in Minnesota. Bower has worked for Hennepin County's court services and for Rudy Boschwitz, Republican candidate for the US Senate will speak on Monday, Oct. 23, at 2 p.m. in the AC lounge. Al Quie, Wendell Anderson, and Bob Short are also scheduled to appear as part of the Senate's VOTE 78 program. Quie, the Republican candidate for governor, will tentatively be here Wednesday, Oct. 25. According to his scheduling secretary, Senator Anderson plans to remain in Washington for much of the campaign, but will make an effort to visit Bethel. Senate candidate Short has a full schedule but will come to Bethel if he has an opening. According to organizers, VOTE 78 is designed to educate and en-courage student involvement through voting and voter informa-tion. VOTE 78 has already been re-sponsible for several events, in-cluding voter registration, a League of Women Voters (LWV) presentation, and campus visits by Dave Durenberger and Quie's running mate, Lou Wangberg. The LWV appeared Tuesday evening. Liz Ebbott, of the Minneapolis as a director of social services At Tabor college, a Mennonite, Brethren college in Kansas, Bower helped develop a social work program. "I think Tabor and Bethel are similar in many ways," said Bower. "It is exciting to see the quality a small school can produce." "I feel there are an adequate number of social work programs throughout the country," said Bower, "but I don't think there are enough programs in institutes with church settings." Bower also stated that there are many ways a Christian can apply his faith in social work. "Social work is my answer to serving my fellow man in an appropriate manner," said LWV's state board, who specia-lizes in campaign practices, and Erica Buffington, who specializes in government, held a discussion on election issues and platforms. Senate candidate Durenberger, who is running against Short for the Humphrey Senate seat, was here Oct. 11, meeting people in the halls and then holding a meeting in the AC lounge. Durenberger gave an opening statement and then fielded ques-tions from students and faculty. Questions ranged from the BWCA issue to international rela-tions. Voter registration was on Oct. 11 and 12. Senate and non-Senate volunteers ran the registration process. About 125 students and faculty registered. Many out-of-state students, who had not registered or applied for an absentee ballot in their home state, registered to vote in Minnesota, with Bethel as their legal address. Lt. Gov. candidate Lou Wang-berg visited Bethel yesterday. He too gave an opening statement and answered questions in the AC lounge. Bower. "It is a way of ministering to people, but not necessarily in a church context." Bower also feels social work is a way of "carrying out the man-dates of the gospels." "I feel that teaching social work in a church-related college also has its advantages," said Bower. "I feel we are free to talk about our responsibility as a Christian in carrying out God's will in our profession." Bower feels that Bethel is a high caliber institution in this as-pect in many others. "I'm very happy about my fellow faculty and the student body," said Bower. Bower worked on a credit board that evaluated Bethel's social work program in the spring of '77. "I think there is a rich base at Bethel for a good social work program," said Bower. "This base comes from Bethel's acade-mic disciplines." "One of my goals is for our program to associate with its alumni better," said Bower. "I would like our students to interact with them on a one-to-one basis." Besides exchanging ideas with students and faculty, Bower also enjoys sports. "Basketball, foot-ball, and tennis are a few of my favorites," said Bower. by Julie Trones Hagstrom residents are facing two main options about where they will live in the coming months. Although the final deci-sion about old campus housing is up to the housing office, the students are encouraged to make their wishes known. A meeting was held at 10 p.m. Oct. 10, with the Hagstrom resi-dents, to inform students of fu-ture possibilities. Bruce Kunkel, supervisor of old campus and Fountain Terrace, explained the two options as follows. First, Hagstrom could remain an all women dorm when Bodien and Edgren move out, but have an increase of security. (Security details have not yet been dis-cussed for this option.) The second option is to move the women out of one of Hag-strom's floors, and move Edgren men (who prefer to stay on old campus) into that floor. First floor would probably become the male-filled floor, but this is not de-finite. Some Hagstrom women might prefer to stay in their dorm be-cause of the increase of security. The women who now live on the floor that the men would occupy would either move to new cam-pus, or move to a different floor. This option would lend itself to a "built-in" security system. The old campus residents will move either the first of Decem-ber, the first of January, or the first of February, depending on when the new dorms are coin-pleted. Many questions were raised at the Tuesday night meeting. Some of the women wondered what kind and how much security would be provided if the dorm were to stay all women. Others wondered how Bethel would de-cide who stays, and who moves if Hagstrom becomes co-ed. Some said they would like to be permitted to buy only four meal cards instead of the nine required by Sandee Bartlon "Pilgrim Baptist Church is one of the most influential centers for black Christians in St. Paul," James Spickelmier, campus pas-tor, claimed. The Rev. Earl Miller from Pilgrim Baptist will be speaking in chapel Wednesday, Oct. 25. Pilgrim Baptist Church is also the largest black Baptist church in St. Paul, having 1500 members. Miller is coming because "we try in chapel policy to have ministers from the area minister to us. He's a strong Christian voice in the community," pastor Spickelmier says. Miller came to Pilgrim Baptist less than two years ago. He was previously dean of students at Union Seminary in Richmond, Va. He also received his masters of Divinity and his Dr. of Ministry from Virginia Union Seminary. Actively involved in community of other new campus residents.

Living in Arden Hills, he usual-ly jogs or walks to and from school. Dr. Brock said he enjoys teach-ing at Bethel and is impressed with the friendliness of Bethel students. His impression of Bethel stu-dents was especially reinforced at the beginning of the school year. "I was waiting in the crowded, disorganized food service line with my tray of food, and noticed how calm the students were in line when compared to students at a secular school," Brock said. Dr. Brock received his B.A. and Ph.D in economics from Harvard University. He taught economics and will also be out of Minnesota to attend a conference on marri-age counseling. The Lindstedt family will probably be spending more of their time on campus. Lindstedt is pursuing his doc-torate of ministries at the semin-ary while his wife is working in the seminary library. The Lind-stedts have been working in the Philippines where, until last year, Mr. Lindstedt was president of the Baptist seminary. - The other three on furlough are Harvey Espland, who is also from the Philippines, and John Marrs ow. Zeke cont. from page 2 "Not so loud, we'll be de-tected." Inside the building they looked about curiously. Consuello point-ed her finger toward a large empty room. "Max, we should investigate that room over there." He hurried in first. "There's writing on a blackboard Consuello." "What does it say?" "Uhh...dialogue maternity, must be a soap opera." Consuello glanced at the board. "Can't you read? That's dialecti-cal materialism. And look here, a volume on the political philosophy of Martin Luther King Jr." "Is that important?" "Get with it. King was as pink as you can get." "Oh, wasn't he the leader of the Pink Panthers." Consuello turned to him with disgust. "That was the Black Pan-thers, but King was not the leader!" "You mean he was just one of the members?" "Blockhead..." she muttered, "we better get out of here." With that the two investigators slipped out the entrance and scurried around the building in the opposite direction. "Hey Con-suello, I hear noise like singing in that long building over there." "We should check this out, but stay low and quiet." at the University of Arizona for five years prior to coming to Bethel. At the University of Arizona, he taught graduates and concen-trated on the research and writing of economics. He said, "It is an adjustment to teach undergradu-ates and orient research toward a Christian's perspective here at Bethel." Brock is married and has two girls, ages 4 and 2. He said he spends much of his free time with them, but "doesn't have much spare time these days." As Chairman of the Economics Department, Brock has many re-sponsibilities. The department is, "in the process of changing re-quirements for economics, revis-ing curriculum and looking for a new faculty member. All this takes up a lot of time," com-mented Brock. Brock's only- previous connec-tion with Bethel was Wayne Gru-and John Oase from Brazil. From Bethel's point of view, it is handy to have these people on campus. During their stay, the missionaries are often asked to give classroom lectures, speak at chapel or to advise potential missionaries. From the missionaries' stand-point, the Chalberg Residence means not having to worry about finding a place to stay during furlough. It also provides them the convenience of using Bethel's facilities, and with the opportun-ity to take refresher courses at the seminary. Upon arriving at the source of their curiosity, Consuello and Maxwell pressed their noses against a large, cold window pane at the rear of the long building and peered intently inside. "Con-suello, there must be over 60 people in there, lounging around and singing, and they are all holding hands." "Some of the men even have beards. I knew it Maxwell, it's a commune! Wait until Uncle Me- Arty hears, ...someone's com-ing..." Immediately Consuello and Maxwell rushed headlong into a wooded area behind the building. They discovered a path and fol-lowed it until they came to a small lake. "Consuello, something is corn-ing up from under the water!" "Submarines! This is terrible, a foreign conspiracy right here!" " Wow, I love submarine races!" "Shut up. Now let's get away without being noticed. We have all the proof we need." With Maxwell stumbling along behind Consuello, the detectives disappeared into the darkness of the night. "I still say it was an art show..." dem, assistant professor of theo-logy. The two professors were room-mates in undergraduate school and are currently planning a re-search project together on the theological influences on econo-mic thought. It is still in the planning stage. After Dean Brushaber re-quested Brock to come to Bethel, Brock said he "considered the offer for quite some time and eventually decided to come." Brock said Bethel gives him, "an opportunity to work with other Christian faculty members from a variety of disciplines in clarifying the proper role of the Christian in today's economic world." Most of Brock's extra-curricu-lar activities are related to his job. He claims, "You can integrate your intellectual interests with your job." He also enjoys pro-gramming computers. His biggest challenge here at Bethel, he says, "is getting going and getting the job done." Dr Brock enjoys lecturing to students most when they are responsive. He also enjoys "interaction with faculty mem-bers." Coffee shop changes, doubles space by Darla Boltz Bethel's food service will take on many changes within the next few months, especially in the coffee shop. Wayne Erickson, co-director of food service, looks forward to re-opening the coffee shop sometime in December. "The plans for the new coffee shop double the former seating space. Our new coffee shop should seat a total of 276 people," Erickson said. Erickson also reported that the change will improve efficiency in service. Two counters and two cash registers will be used. This way students buying ice cream will not have to stand in line behind someone waiting for a grilled cheese sandwich. Also, students will find shorter lines and less congestion, Erick-son said. It will be possible to close the grill but keep the "ice cream and hot dog" counter open. cont. on page 5 BETHANY BAPTIST CHURCH Cleveland and Skillman Avenues Roseville, MN.

Church Telephone 631-0211 by Kraig Klaudt Five missionary families are making the Bethel campus their home while on furlough this year. Herman Tegenfeldt, professor of missions at Bethel Seminary, said that these families have en-riched life at Bethel since the Chalberg Missionary Residence opened 10 years ago. The Chalberg Residence is lo-cated one block north of the sem-inary classrooms. It is financed and operated by World Missions although it lies on land rented from Bethel. Missionaries staying there en-joy the comfort of furnished, three-bedroom apartments dur-ing their one-year vacation. Whether it is really a 'vacation' is debatable for the missionaries. After 4 to 6 years in the field, a missionary's furlough begins with three months to visit relatives, remedy health problems and take care of personal problems. The remainder of time in "the States" is spent completing re-ports, attending seminars and visiting some of the 40 churches across the area that support his mission program. The latter is Dana Larson's main concern. The Larsons are home for their second furlough since they went to Argentina in 1970. Larson says he can not find enough Sundays in the year to speak at all of the congregations that have supported him. Larson has a short trip to India planned during their furlough, missionary families on fudou Page 4 Coffee shop to include mosaic, Johnson wort commissioned by Jon Mogck A 34-foot long mosaic will be a part of the new coffee shop north wall. Designed by Dale R. John-son, associate professor of art, the mosaic's 4,665 four by four color tiles will capture and reflect the light from the northern win-dows in the new buildings. Johnson has named the com-position "Sun Through The Clouds." The mosaic was de-signed to "create an active, stim-ulating abstract landscape in mosaic tile that would bring vis-ual excitement and color into the lounge area," said Johnson. By doing this he also hoped to express life, vitality and inter-action. "In this proposed mosaic I see the simple motif of grass moved by fresh breeze as a metaphor for the Holy Spirit's work of love in this Christian Learning Commun-ity," said Johnson. One of the objectives for the mosaic was to respond to the architectural design of the "north light" windows that will be put in the building. According to Johnson, "The mosaic presents a simplified The success of our program depends largely upon the partici-pation of the student body. So far this semester, we have been more than pleased with the encour-agement and support that so many of you have given us at our various events. Our job would be impossible if we did not receive your help. The events coming next week include: Roller skating tonight at Saints Roller Rink from 12 a.m. to 2 a.m. for new campus only. The bus leaves from the gym at 11:30 p.m. Tomorrow night will be a corn-edy at the Guthrie, "Marriage," and a bus will leave at 6:30 p.m. from the gym doors. Next Friday, Oct. 27, will be a special Halloween Masquerade landscape as a setting for a brilliant light ray to pierce the clouds and illuminate the field below. This can be seen as a metaphor for Christ as "light of the world." The mosaic will also have a diagonal that will extend out 10 feet and then drop 6 feet to the floor. The diagonal requires ex-tensive the cutting but would result in a "beautiful configura-tion of color tile," Johnson said. Other artists sent in designs but the bulding committee sel-ected Johnson's design. "It's a good thing to see a Christian college like Bethel commissioning a work of art, having it executed professionally, and having it forever," stated Johnson. "My hope is that stu-dents will take time to look at it carefully." Johnson's idea was a natural outgrowth of his work for the past two years. Johnson will oversee the build-ing of the mosaic. An European-trained tile setter will be brought in to begin work on the mosaic as soon as the new buildings are structurally ready. The mosaic will be completed this year. roller skate. You must wear a costume to get in. Cost will be $1.25 and the skate will go from 12 a.m. to 3 a.m. instead of the usual. The evening will include special games, tricks, and some treats. We also want to remind you again that Larry Norman will not be at the State Theater on Oct. 28 as the campus cube suggests. He moved the date back to Nov. 18. Please make a note of this on your calendar. We should be getting some tickets in early November. by Thangi Chhangte "When I go home, I might get shot at the airport," said one foreign student who asked not to be identified. Despite such odds, some foreign students have chosen to come to Bethel. These students also often face miles of red tape before they can study in the United States. For example, Ethiopian stu-dents peed a good GPA (straight A's) before they even think about studying overseas. Taye Birmachu, junior, said he had to get cleared with the Ethio-pian government before he could leave the service. He was on active duty for two years. The government was then giving pre-ference to students who wanted to study in eastern countries such as the USSR. After all his papers had been checked out, Taye went to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Next, he went to the Minister of Interior Affairs, who checked out his re-cords. Mayo Clinic, Red Cross out for blood The bi-annual Bethel blood drive will be on Friday, Oct. 27 from 9: a.m. to 3: p.m. The Red Cross is hoping for 290 pints of blood from Bethel, the majority of the blood going to Mayo Clinic. Sue Smith and Carolyn Olson are in charge of the drive, and the committee members are: Lynne Schroeder and Carol Dischinger, recruitment of workers; Pam Bickmore and Jenny Hoehl, re-cruitment of donors; Cory Dahl, publicity; and Ron Nilsson, set-up. There will be sign-up sheets by the P.O.'s next week for donors and volunteers. He then 'went to the Ethiopian Immigration where he was check-ed out thoroughly. Afterwards, he went to the American Embassy for his student visa and started making contacts with friends in the States, including Bethel friends. This took four months, even though Taye had good connec-tions. Before he left the country, Food service cont. from page 4 This will allow students to pur-chase these items at certain times, such as after basketball games, when the coffee shop would otherwise not be open. Erickson said the new coffee shop will allow more students to make reservations for the Royal Oak Room. He is also considering longer hours for the Oak Room, although this would mean closing the coffee shop on Thursday nights. Not all of the changes in the fOod services will be in the coffee shop. Erickson is bringing back the "special," which gives the student a balanced meal at a reduced rate. Erickson stated that the price of the "special" will always be less than buying the items separately, but will change from day to day. "I am looking for students' input so that changes can be made to suit the student body," Erickson said. Erickson hopes the Country Store can be maintained. "It is working well and allows faster service for many students." Taye was checked out thoroughly at the airport by the Ethiopian Immigration officials. "Of the 200 who applied, I was one of the four released," ex-claimed Taye. Taye's friend, Tecola Werku, second semester freshman, was not so lucky. He applied for a visa at the same time as Taye but was not able to leave until last Jan-uary. "I owe it to the Lord that I can here," said Tecola. He refused a scholarship to the USSR and waited three years to come to Bethel. While Tecola was waiting for his visa, the Ethiopians had some conflict with the Russians. During this time, the Ethiopian govern-ment relaxed its rules and Tecola was allowed to leave the country. One month after Tecola left Ethiopia, no one was allowed to leave the country. Sara Haile Sellasie, an Ethio-pian freshman, had problems get-ting clearance. "The problem was that I did not finish one year of the required national service. I served for only eight months and had to leave because of medical reasons, explained Sara. Sara grew up with the Sudan Interior Missions (SIM). Her sponsor, who worked with SIM, now lives at Waterloo, Iowa, Sara finished a year of high school at Waterloo before coming to Bethel. cont. on page 7 Dale Johnson displays the mosaic design that he will duplicate in the new coffee shop.

As the play opens, the five characters in the play production are seated separately at a bar, and take turns describing the focal points of their lives to the audience, but have no interaction amongst themselves. Each of the bar's customers is still living on successes and fail-ures they had in the 196;'s. Although the play is set in 1974, the characters can only see pre-sent reality as an opportunity for lamenting the past. The customers portray Ken-nedy's assassination, student un-rest and revolt movements, Mari-lyn Monroe's death, living in a counter-culture and the Vietnam Couple lectures on relationships by Barb Trostad An attorney-author team, George and Margaret Hardisty of Concord, Calif., will lead a con-vocation on Fri., Oct. 27. An en-richment seminar on marriage and personal relationships will follow at the seminary on Oct. 27 and 28. Lectures, workshops and ques-tion- answer periods are planned. Special sessions for single, widowed and divorced persons will be included, and the Hard-istys will be available for in-dividual counseling after the ses-sions. Margaret Hardisty is the au-thor of "Forever My Love," a bestselling book on marriage re-lationships. She has written num-erous short stories, plays and musicals. She co-authored "Hon-est Questions, Honest Answers" with her husband. Her husband George is an attorney, counselor and lecturer. He serves on the board of dir-ectors and several nationally known organizations. The seminar is open to college and seminary faculty, staff and students.

Burns does an excellent job of displaying the Kennedy mystique and generating sincerity within her role. by Lisa Pepper Twelve Bethel students and faculty members attended the Wheaton Philosophy Conference on Oct. 12-14. Sponsored by Wheaton College in Illinois, the 25th Annual Phil-osophy Conference provided an opportunity for Christian philoso-phers to present and discuss theories relating to religious language. The distinguished lecturer for the event was William Alston, currently chairman of the Univer-sity of Illinois' philosophy de-partment. His topic for the Thursday evening opening lecture was "Can We Speak Literally About God?" "Symbolic Interpretations of Theological Discourse" was the subject of his second lecture. "I'm glad I went. It was a learning experience for me even though I couldn't understand a lot of it," said junior Mark Kershaw. Participants "attended lectures, seminars, chapel and informal dialogues and discussions. Sem-inars consisted of a professor reading his paper on an aspect of religious language. A response by another educator and a time of questions by the audience fol-lowed. "The people from Bethel seemed to like best Jerry Gill's "The Orphic Voice: Language, Reality and Faith" and James Spiceland's "D.Z. Phillips on Re-ligious Language." They were the clearest pre-sentations and seemed to deal with fundamental issues involved in the problems of religious / Due to the non-interacting dia-logue of the play, there is very little action on stage. All energy has to come from the dialogues themselves, which was carried out quite well by the cast. Each role came with its own set of mannerisms and vocabulary which separated the characters distinctly. "Kennedy's Children" is not an entertaining production, al-though there is humor spread throughout the dialogues. It is an intense reflection on the tragedies of the 60's and their repercus-sions still evident today. language. "They also had the most interesting discussion after-wards," said Randy Johnson, philosophy instructor. The conference was not strictly intellectual. People had a chance to socialize through coffee breaks, a trip into downtown Chicago and nights in a dorm or with friends. Margaret Van Etten, a sopho-more said, "The conference is not only for philosophers. This year's was also good for Bible or theology majors. I had a good time. The girl I stayed with was very nice. She made an effort to be with me as much as possible." Instructor Randy Johnson sum-marized the conference as being, at times disappointing, at times stimulating, and, overall, rewar-ding. It provided for greater unity and more informal fellowship bet-ween students and faculty." involved in activities they plan to set up. Some of the committees are in charge of such things as missions, social and political action, cultural life and recreation. Joy feels that one of the pri-mary goals for this year is "to recognize the potential of student senate and really work at it." She hopes the senate can "en-hance the academic end of semin-ary by complementing it," Joy hopes to do this by planning ahead and preparing activities for this year. The seminary senate has an open relationship with the ad-ministration. One of the senate members is a faculty representa-tive who is also the dean of students. Joy sits in and contri-butes to the Board of Regents meetings. Joy thinks the seminary senate is in for an "exciting" year. They hope to use the senate "as an instrument for personal and institutional growth." As for the future, the senate aims to unfold into a "more vital vehicle of communication."

With running mate Lou Wangberg, he is attempting to unseat Rudy Perpich as Minne-sota's governor, and end DFL dominance in state politics. He is tentatively scheduled to appear at Bethel on Wed. Oct. 25. Quie was born near Dennison, Minn., and still operates a farm in the area. After serving as a Navy pilot in World War II, Quie enrolled at St. Olaf college. Quie first encountered politics at St. Olaf, being elected president of the Young Republicans Club. Four years after he graduated in 1950, Quie was elected to the Min-nesota State Senate. In a 1958 special election, he won a U.S. Congressional seat. Since that election, Quie has Women get 8th place, meet goals by Joy Banta Bethel's Women's Cross Coun-try team placed eighth out of 17 teams at the Carleton Invitational last Saturday afternoon. "Our goal going into this meet was to run six personal bests and qualify three runners for Region-als at Iowa State on Nov. 3," said Shirley Dawson, cross-country coach. Those qualifying for regionals were: Ellie Abbot, Brenda Harris; Wendy Norberg; and Denise Egge, who had already qualified. Tina Anderson and Karlene Kline also ran personal bests. Tina is close to qaulifying for regionals. Their next meet is tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. at Como Park. It will be a coed meet with the men's team. Coach Dawson said, "We'd like to see a lot of support as we go against a tough Carleton team." Jim Chet Debbie won 11 consecutive Congressional campaigns as a Republican, the last with 69 per cent of the vote. This is especially noteworthy be-cause of the usually strong Democratic leanings of the area. Quie is now the ranking minori-ty member of the House Educa-tion and Labor Committee. He is a nationally recognized leader in educational legislation. In 1976, the American Council on Learning Disabilities honored Quie with its highest national award for his role in passing a bill guaranteeing public education programs to all handicapped children. He also holds seven honorary doctorate degrees. Throughout his career, Quie has been recognized as a politician with integrity. Though he has not been advertised for his "born againness," Quie says his faith has been a central focus of his life. His involvement in Washington prayer groups, and his ministry to Chuck Colson have been well-do-cumented. Quie's present platform in-cludes an "inflation proofed" tax plan and policies for initiative and referendum. Initiative, another of Quie's proposals, is a process by which, through petition, people may write laws for submission to the voter. Foreign exchange, cont. from page 5 Another Ethiopian, Eshete Kirkos, freshman, has an unusual story. By the time he was ready to come to Bethel, the Ethiopian government was not allowing anybody to leave the country. So Eshete got an intransit visa to neighboring Nairobi, Kenya. He was there for six weeks. Dur-ing that time, he went to the American Embassy and managed to get a visa from there. "It was a miracle that I got here," said Eshete, echoing the thoughts of hjs Ethiopian col-leagues. by Anne Rosenthal Rice Bowl, a program which sponsors five children in Haiti, gives the Bethel community "a chance to show genuine love and concern for the spiritual and phy-sical needs of others," said Dan Dye, chairman of student sen-ate's Public Action Committee (PAC). The Rice Bowl program, dir-ected by PAC, supports each of the five children with $14 per month. Through the help of West Indies Missions in Aux Cayes, Haiti, this money supplies food, clothing and education for the children. Since Rice Bowl's beginning four years ago, money for the program has come from selling bowls of rice in Bethel's food otieyda ii cont. from page 8 The JV lost to Northwestern in a close match, 15-3, 7-15, and 15-17.

Because food service do-nates the rice, the entire dollar provides for the needs of the children. PAC chose to raise money by selling rice, because they be-lieved the visible presence of the rice bowl would cause the Bethel community to reflect upon the problems on the Third World. Money for the program does not come from rice sales alone. Proceeds from fundraisers such as pumpkin sales, bake sales and volleyball marathons supplement the income from rice sales. Pictures of the five children and their letters are displayed on the bulletin board in the FA building. Two of the children are girls; three are boys. Their ages range between 8 and 14. This display calls them "our children." The children also see them-selves as "our children." Every three months they send letters to PAC to inform us how they are and what they're doing. Each letter is signed "your son," or "your daughter." Rice Bowl is just one of the programs PAC directs in the name of the Bethel community. Each year all of PAC's programs focus on one social concern—this year it is human rights. PAC states that their primary function is to "address ourselves to salient social concerns and seek to sensitize students to these issues, thus enhancing the image of Bethel as a concerned Christian community."

Smith Hosting the Mankato Maver-icks for homecoming didn't seem to be such a bad idea, especially when fullback Greg Sutton cross-ed the goal line untouched in the second quarter, giving the Royals a 17-0 lead. And when quarterback Lonnie Holmgren combined with Sutton and wide receiver Rich Graves to convert a Mankato fumble into another Royals' touchdown, all looked well for the Bethel blue. But trailing 24-7, the Mavericks refused to succumb to the Royals' attack and went on to win, 35-24. The Royals' first score came ear-ly in the first quarter as Bethel's defense squared off against the Mankato offense. On first down and 25, following a personal foul against Mankato, defensive backs Scott Engstrom and Greg Peterson combined to foil an attempted Mankato pass. On third and 21, safety Randy Fredine snatched a Mankato receiver and tackled him 15 yards short of the first down. With Mankato punting on fourth down, cornerback Peter-son crashed into the Mankato backfield and blocked the punt. Scooping up the football, Peter-son sprinted into the end zone for th Royals' first score. by Steve Erickson The Bethel soccer team failed to take advantage of a key oppor-tunity last week, losing to and ty-ing two of the lesser teams in the conference. Mankato quarterback Bill Maples surprised the Royals mid-way through the second quarter, throwing a 72-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Scott Mayes, trimming the Royals' margin to 24-14. Primed by the touchdown, the Mankato defense held Bethel to only one first down on their next series, forcing the Royals to punt. After halting Mankato at their own 36-yard line, the Royals regained possession with twelve seconds left in the half. From there Holmgren launched three in-complete passes and the half end-ed with Bethel still leading 24-14. In the second half the Maver-icks quickly captured the lead from the Royals, capitalizing on a blocked punt and a fumbled kickoff. Mankato led for the first time in the game, 28-24. "We really had them on the rails the first half," said head coach Reynolds. "They didn't earn one touchdown." The Royals' offense, handily controlling the Mankato defense in the first half, found themselves coming up consistently short in the second half. Twice the Royals moved the ball to within the Mankato fifteen-yard line, failing to score both times. "We can't seem to eliminate those few little mistakes," said Reynolds. "We're an awfully good foot-ball team to be 2-4." Playing before a home crowd Wednesday, the Royals fell to Macalester 3-2. Saturday, Bethel and St. Mary's fought to a 1-1 deadlock in Winona. A goal by the center forward late in the second half gave by Carol Madison The volleyball team lost a well-played to match to Carleton, and then narrowly escaped an upset by Northwestern last week. Carleton defeated the Royals in three straight games, 11-15, 2-15, and 9-15. Both teams played well, sustaining several long rallies. The Royals were outserved in the first game, but were able to match the blocks and spikes of Macalester the win. The Scotties applied pressure throughout the half before finally scoring. The first half was played fairly evenly. Bethel controlled the early going with crisp passing. Doug Hage put the Royals ahead 1-0, spinning 180 degrees to fire the ball past the goalie. As has happened in past games, Bethel relaxed after controlling the early play. Macalester stormed back with two quick goals. The first was scored on a lofted shot into the top left-hand corner. The second Mac goal came on a re-bound after goalie Jeff Beckman misplayed a shot. The Royals tied the score at 2-2 late in the half. Joe Clement was tripped in the penalty area and Greg Thom converted the penalty shot. Saturday's game was played in cold, blustery weather. Both teams controlled the ball well in the middle of the field but had trouble as they neared the goal. The only goals of the game came midway through the first half. An unmarked St. Mary's for-ward put in the first tally, heading the ball off a corner kick. Five minutes later, Bethel knotted the score on a nifty passing play from Tim Morin to Hage to Scott Feltman who knocked in his fourth goal of the season.

The Royals play tomorrow at home against St. John's (1:30) before taking on Macalester under the lights (7:00) at the Scotties homefield. The Royals are battl-ing to make the MIAC playoffs which start Nov. 4. The top six teams in the conference continue in post-season play. by Becky Dye Last Saturday Bethel finished first in a close meet with the University of Wisconsin, Superior (UWS) and rival Northwestern. All of the Bethel harriers ran their best times this season on the five-mile Como course. A pack of five Bethel runners; freshmen Bob Holt, Mark Doner and Ross Fleming, and juniors, Jim Feleen and Randy Bostrom; stuck together for two miles, keeping Northwestern's fifth man back two places and putting Bethel in good position for the victory. Dave Clapp achieved a personal best of 26:54. His previous best was 27:17 which Clapp ran on the Como course earlier this season. when Mandy Fawley came into the game providing good serving and key hits. But the rally fell short. Bethel had trouble with the shorter Northwestern team, but managed to pull out a win in four games, 15-11, 3-15, 15-12, and 18-16. The Royals fell behind in every game, but always came back at crucial points. Northwestern played aggressively and blocked several of Bethel's spikes. Northwestern scored seven straight points early in the first game, but Bethel came back to win when Sheryl Meyer served five points, including an ace. The Royals were not aggressive in the second game, and North-western defeated them easily. They again fell behind late in the third game, but excellent serving by Lori Olsen put Bethel back in the lead. Bethel came from behind in the fourth game to tie the score at 14-14, and then finally won 18-16. cont. on page 7 NW, UWS om improve Randy (Rudy) Bostrom also ran a personal best at 27:56. Coach Gene Glader attributed the better times and victory to the season's progressing and the run-ners being in better condition. "It was a beautiful day for running, cool and calm. We had good com-petition. "The pack of five helped; they encouraged each other as they ran and kept the Northwestern runner back," commented Glader. The final team scores were Bethel 38; Northwestern, 43; and UWS, 47. Northwestern runner Tim Malone came out the number one man for the day with a time of 26:12.

KABY resurrection fails, future airing still possible See Zeke's Zetesis Page 2 Bethel College St. Paul, Minn. Vol 54 No. 5 October 20, 1978 Four Bethel professors work onNIV translation by Mark Rentz The entire Bible in the New International Version, published this month, marks the end of a 10-year project by over a hundred scholars, including four Bethel professors. This enormous work may be one of the most significant and widely accepted Bible transla-tions into English in centuries. Already the pre-sales for the NW are above 1 million copies. The New Testament version has been available since 1973, and has justified its existence by public demand and acceptance. Bethel radio KABY will not be on the air this fall, due to lack of space and lack of a faculty ad-visor. If the station were to be aired, it would need to use the office that Dr. Roy Wilbee is presently using, and at this time no other space is available. Last Tuesday, the Senate mov- The four Bethel professors are Dr. Arthur Lewis and Dr. Walter Wessel of the College, and Dr. Donald Madvig and Dr. Ronald Youngblood of the Seminary. Dr. Youngblood has since last spring taken the position of dean-elect of the Wheaton Graduate School. Dr. Wessel, the first of the Bethel professors to be involved on the project, is professor of Bib-lical studies and worked on the New Testament portion. Dr. Lewis, professor of Bible and theology, and Dr. Ronald ed to table the bill, and KABY's establishment will be postponed indefinitely. Senate and admini-stration will still need to approve the bill before the radio station will be on the air. The earliest KABY could be on the air would be next semester, when the offices in the new annex will be completed. Youngblood, professor of Old Testament were both involved in the Old Testament portion. Dr. Madvig, professor of Old Testament, was one of the few translators to work on both the Old and New Testaments. "The NIV," said Dr. Lewis, "was begun with the aim of becoming the standard edition for public worship." Dr. Edwin Palmer, the execu-tive secretary of the translation committee (as interviewed in the October "Eternity"), explained by Beth Rainbow A plus and minus grading policy has been approved by faculty members, although con-verting to the system this year is financially impossible. Dwight Jessup, director of academic af-fairs, said the change has been "put on hold" until Bethel can accommodate the cost. The data processing firm, which handles Bethel's grades, estimates that making the change would cost between $2000 and $3000. "We didn't foresee that switching the computers over would cost so much," said Jes-sup. "We simply do not have that money." The new plus and minus sy-stem will be in effect when it will be financially feasible. This system will affect stu-dents' grade point averages (GPA). Such a system allows teachers to choose from these passing grades: A, A-, B+, B, B-, C + , C, C-, D + , and D. A plus increases grade points by .3, and a minus decreases grade point by 0.3. Teachers in the science and math fields, where points deter-mine grades objectively, tend to be more in favor of the policy than those in the humanities. Lynn Fauth, English literature instructor, commented, "It's difficult enough for an English teacher to assign a letter grade to a paper. Now we have to decide between degrees of letters." Jim Torgerson, vice president of the student association, said he voted in favor of the system last year as a student member of the academic policy committee be-cause students had been request-ing the plus and minus policy. how some versions are very ac-curate in their translation but use archaic and unnatural language, which often dulls the meaning. The other extreme is modern translations that are too free, too paraphrastic, so that while they are easy to read and understand, they may be deviating from the text. Sometimes accuracy and clarity are on opposite ends of the continuum, but Dr. Wessel em-phasized that, "The NW attempts a middle of the road approach. It has accuracy and clarity, without "Student opinion is generally for the new grading system," said Torgerson. "It would pro-bably only hurt people with ex-tremely high GPA's who might get A-'s and not end up with 4.0." The recommendation of the grading policy came from Philip Sackett, chairman of last year's academic policy committee. Sack-ett first introduced the system to that committee. After holding several open hearings, the academic policy committee voted in favor of the plus and minus system. The proposal was then taken to a faculty meeting, where teachers also voted to adopt it, although the vote was not unanimous. "I was strongly in favor of the plus and minus policy and I was disappointed to see it delayed this year," said Sackett. The system provides an incen-tive to students who settle for less than best effort studying. Sackett said he is eager to see the new policy carried through because, "it will stimulate students to work harder." A student can't, for example, complete the minimum amount of work for an A and still earn 4.0. Instead, 4.0 is awarded for A work, and an A- receives 3.7. "The issue is by no means dead," explained Jessup. "It may take a year or two before the system actually changes, but a definite decision to adopt the plus and minus policy has been made." Meanwhile, Bethel will either try a different data processing firm, or budget the money ahead of time. Jessup mentioned that in the future, Bethel might do its own computer work. the loss of dignity." The NIV is a new translation. All work was done by translating from the original languages. "The actual translation was fascinating," said Dr. Lewis. "It was an opportunity to do meticu-lous study in the scripture. Every word must be thought through as to how it can be communicated. "It's puzzling to find the best word equivalent in English. Sometimes hours were spent on just a word." "It was a costly and complex process," added Dr. Wessel. "The translation of a book began with a team of scholars. Their work was sent to consultants who made suggestions for improve-ment. "The translation was then re-worked and revised verse by verse by an Intermediate Edi-torial Committee. Each change was by majority vote. Then the translation was revised by a Gen-eral Editorial Committee. "During the phases of editorial work, copies of the translation were sent to various pastors, English stylists, scholars, and lay people for suggestions and criti-cism. "Then finally, the translation was revised and edited for a third time by the governing Committee on Bible Translation. Now it was ready to be included in the NIV." Another significant character-istic of the NIV is that it's a pro-duct of mainly American evangel-ical scholarship. All major deno-minations were represented. Dr. Wessel said, "We seem to be in some kind of second Golden Age of translating the Bible into English. "The first Age began with the translation of the Tyndale and ended with the King James Ver-sion (1530's-1611). A lot of trans-lations were done during this time. Intensive translation work began again in the 1920's and has con-tinued up to the present day." Is the New International Ver-sion the climax of this new Golden Age? on the inside... Hagstrom fate P. 3 Coffee shop renovation p. 4 Johnson mosaic P. 5 Homecoming defeat p. 8 Bethel initiates grading policy waits for financial feasibility I the Soapbox Student apathy on clash day criticized Opinion Maintain spirituality Ken Gowdy's chapel message on Monday served as a warning and an inspiration to the entire Bethel community. In his research of church-related colleges, he found that academic improvement in a school is related to a decline it its formal relationship with its sponsoring chur-ches. His evidence is solid and his research convincing. His message should be taken seriously. One could contend that Bethel is not like the others, that with God's help, Bethel can retain its spiritual emphasis. But the statistics are hard to refute. Gowdy quoted Jenks as saying that there has never been a rise in a college's academic standards without a concurrent drop in the religious. We believe that without continuing awareness of this probability, and a concerted effort to overcome it, Bethel's spirituality is in danger. We do not feel, however, that Gowdy is necessarily a prophet of doom. Bethel is unique among church-related colleges in Minnesota. For the past 30 years, it has retained a fairly high level of formal religious standards and strong ties to the Baptist General Conference, while gaining a reputation for strong academic standards. There are many who deserve credit and thanks for this unique posi-tion, including President Lundquist and Dean Brushaber. To anyone with even a limited contact with Lundquist, it is obvious that his priorities are spiritual. Brushaber has done an outstanding job of recruiting commited Chris-tians to Bethel's faculty. In the future, it will be these leaders (faculty and administration) who will make or break Bethel's religious stan-dards. Gowdy's message was thought provoking. We should be thankful for the spirituality of Bethel, so far. Even more, we should be aware and ready to face the possibilities for the future. Zeke's Zetesis `Beetle Collage' invaded, spies detect conspiracy by Rick Chapman On a cool and crisp October evening, two distinctive looking individuals dressed in trench coats and derbies crept slowly along an old country road. Sud-denly the shorter member of the two stopped. "There it is now, Maxwell!" "What are you talking about, Consuello?" "The sign you idiot!" "What sign?" "The 'Beetle Collage' sign. What's wrong with you, Thwack-dorf? You are aware of how important this mission is. Uncle McArty told us that the future of the nation depends on this mis-sion." "I guess I'm not concentrating too well tonight. I'm sorry Ms. Fosdick." "This is no time for apologies. This is our first clue." "How's that Consuello? Looks to me like a freak art show!" "Get with the program Max, you know that beetles are red, don't you?" "That depends. The common Eastern beetle is usually brown-ish- black, and the yellow-spotted Mountain beetle..." "Forget it, beetle brains. Now follow me down this road. It must be the entrance." Together they shuffled along the road for about a hundred yards. Maxwell ended the silence. "What's that shack, Consuello?" "I am positive that it is their secret security. This only con-firms our suspicions. But look, no one is there!" "Some security." "There must be a meeting of the executives tonight." "What executives, Consuello?" "The party executives, you know, the big-wigs." "Oh, the bald people with the fat heads!" "Never mind. Those buildings over there must be the head-quarters. We better take a look... mercy, look at those contraptions on the grass!" "I told you Consuello, that is the art show." "You fool, they will be used to destroy the minds of our children. What a sinister and evil plot!" "This one would look great in my room." "Don't be silly; remember the mission!" With that, the sleuths walked in the direction of a large structure of cement and bricks. They moved quickly, but quietly, their eyes darting from side to side. Consuello moaned. "Don't tell me the doors are locked!" "The doors are locked." "I told you not to tell me that." "But there must be another entrance." "Good thinking for once. Let's go around to the other side." Maxwell eargerly rushed be-fore and then called back. "Hurry Consuello, the door is open over here!" cont. on page 4 Dear Editor, Of about 1900 students on this campus, almost none participated in Clash Day. Why? I'm sure that a number of students forgot, and many just don't see a whole lot of value in it. With these I sympathize. How-ever, throughout the week, I kept hearing statements like "Oh, for childish!" and "Well, back to high school!" The apostle Paul, in I Corin-thians 4: 9-17, speaks of the way in which the apostles were "... made spectacle to the whole universe," how they were "... fools for Christ...," and how we should follow their example. Certainly, Clash Day was not meant to glorify Christ in parti-cular, but I think the lack of participation may be an indication of the importance Bethel students have placed on appearance. The atmosphere at Bethel is one of the most loving and ac-cepting I have ever encountered.

Bower 'ministers' in social work by Ed Scott Palmquist "I see Bethel's social work program as a challenge," said John Bower, Bethel's new chair-man of social work. Bower thinks a broad range of past experience will aide him in making Bethel's program accredited. After graduating from Bagley High School, Bower attended Moody Bible Institute. Bower also received degrees from North-western and the University of Minnesota. "Currently, I'm a doctorate candidate at Kansas State," said Bower. Bower feels that his family has moved "home," since he has worked before in Minnesota. Bower has worked for Hennepin County's court services and for Rudy Boschwitz, Republican candidate for the US Senate will speak on Monday, Oct. 23, at 2 p.m. in the AC lounge. Al Quie, Wendell Anderson, and Bob Short are also scheduled to appear as part of the Senate's VOTE 78 program. Quie, the Republican candidate for governor, will tentatively be here Wednesday, Oct. 25. According to his scheduling secretary, Senator Anderson plans to remain in Washington for much of the campaign, but will make an effort to visit Bethel. Senate candidate Short has a full schedule but will come to Bethel if he has an opening. According to organizers, VOTE 78 is designed to educate and en-courage student involvement through voting and voter informa-tion. VOTE 78 has already been re-sponsible for several events, in-cluding voter registration, a League of Women Voters (LWV) presentation, and campus visits by Dave Durenberger and Quie's running mate, Lou Wangberg. The LWV appeared Tuesday evening. Liz Ebbott, of the Minneapolis as a director of social services At Tabor college, a Mennonite, Brethren college in Kansas, Bower helped develop a social work program. "I think Tabor and Bethel are similar in many ways," said Bower. "It is exciting to see the quality a small school can produce." "I feel there are an adequate number of social work programs throughout the country," said Bower, "but I don't think there are enough programs in institutes with church settings." Bower also stated that there are many ways a Christian can apply his faith in social work. "Social work is my answer to serving my fellow man in an appropriate manner," said LWV's state board, who specia-lizes in campaign practices, and Erica Buffington, who specializes in government, held a discussion on election issues and platforms. Senate candidate Durenberger, who is running against Short for the Humphrey Senate seat, was here Oct. 11, meeting people in the halls and then holding a meeting in the AC lounge. Durenberger gave an opening statement and then fielded ques-tions from students and faculty. Questions ranged from the BWCA issue to international rela-tions. Voter registration was on Oct. 11 and 12. Senate and non-Senate volunteers ran the registration process. About 125 students and faculty registered. Many out-of-state students, who had not registered or applied for an absentee ballot in their home state, registered to vote in Minnesota, with Bethel as their legal address. Lt. Gov. candidate Lou Wang-berg visited Bethel yesterday. He too gave an opening statement and answered questions in the AC lounge. Bower. "It is a way of ministering to people, but not necessarily in a church context." Bower also feels social work is a way of "carrying out the man-dates of the gospels." "I feel that teaching social work in a church-related college also has its advantages," said Bower. "I feel we are free to talk about our responsibility as a Christian in carrying out God's will in our profession." Bower feels that Bethel is a high caliber institution in this as-pect in many others. "I'm very happy about my fellow faculty and the student body," said Bower. Bower worked on a credit board that evaluated Bethel's social work program in the spring of '77. "I think there is a rich base at Bethel for a good social work program," said Bower. "This base comes from Bethel's acade-mic disciplines." "One of my goals is for our program to associate with its alumni better," said Bower. "I would like our students to interact with them on a one-to-one basis." Besides exchanging ideas with students and faculty, Bower also enjoys sports. "Basketball, foot-ball, and tennis are a few of my favorites," said Bower. by Julie Trones Hagstrom residents are facing two main options about where they will live in the coming months. Although the final deci-sion about old campus housing is up to the housing office, the students are encouraged to make their wishes known. A meeting was held at 10 p.m. Oct. 10, with the Hagstrom resi-dents, to inform students of fu-ture possibilities. Bruce Kunkel, supervisor of old campus and Fountain Terrace, explained the two options as follows. First, Hagstrom could remain an all women dorm when Bodien and Edgren move out, but have an increase of security. (Security details have not yet been dis-cussed for this option.) The second option is to move the women out of one of Hag-strom's floors, and move Edgren men (who prefer to stay on old campus) into that floor. First floor would probably become the male-filled floor, but this is not de-finite. Some Hagstrom women might prefer to stay in their dorm be-cause of the increase of security. The women who now live on the floor that the men would occupy would either move to new cam-pus, or move to a different floor. This option would lend itself to a "built-in" security system. The old campus residents will move either the first of Decem-ber, the first of January, or the first of February, depending on when the new dorms are coin-pleted. Many questions were raised at the Tuesday night meeting. Some of the women wondered what kind and how much security would be provided if the dorm were to stay all women. Others wondered how Bethel would de-cide who stays, and who moves if Hagstrom becomes co-ed. Some said they would like to be permitted to buy only four meal cards instead of the nine required by Sandee Bartlon "Pilgrim Baptist Church is one of the most influential centers for black Christians in St. Paul," James Spickelmier, campus pas-tor, claimed. The Rev. Earl Miller from Pilgrim Baptist will be speaking in chapel Wednesday, Oct. 25. Pilgrim Baptist Church is also the largest black Baptist church in St. Paul, having 1500 members. Miller is coming because "we try in chapel policy to have ministers from the area minister to us. He's a strong Christian voice in the community," pastor Spickelmier says. Miller came to Pilgrim Baptist less than two years ago. He was previously dean of students at Union Seminary in Richmond, Va. He also received his masters of Divinity and his Dr. of Ministry from Virginia Union Seminary. Actively involved in community of other new campus residents.

Living in Arden Hills, he usual-ly jogs or walks to and from school. Dr. Brock said he enjoys teach-ing at Bethel and is impressed with the friendliness of Bethel students. His impression of Bethel stu-dents was especially reinforced at the beginning of the school year. "I was waiting in the crowded, disorganized food service line with my tray of food, and noticed how calm the students were in line when compared to students at a secular school," Brock said. Dr. Brock received his B.A. and Ph.D in economics from Harvard University. He taught economics and will also be out of Minnesota to attend a conference on marri-age counseling. The Lindstedt family will probably be spending more of their time on campus. Lindstedt is pursuing his doc-torate of ministries at the semin-ary while his wife is working in the seminary library.

Zeke cont. from page 2 "Not so loud, we'll be de-tected." Inside the building they looked about curiously. Consuello point-ed her finger toward a large empty room. "Max, we should investigate that room over there." He hurried in first. "There's writing on a blackboard Consuello." "What does it say?" "Uhh...dialogue maternity, must be a soap opera." Consuello glanced at the board. "Can't you read? That's dialecti-cal materialism. And look here, a volume on the political philosophy of Martin Luther King Jr." "Is that important?" "Get with it. King was as pink as you can get." "Oh, wasn't he the leader of the Pink Panthers." Consuello turned to him with disgust. "That was the Black Pan-thers, but King was not the leader!" "You mean he was just one of the members?" "Blockhead..." she muttered, "we better get out of here." With that the two investigators slipped out the entrance and scurried around the building in the opposite direction. "Hey Con-suello, I hear noise like singing in that long building over there." "We should check this out, but stay low and quiet." at the University of Arizona for five years prior to coming to Bethel. At the University of Arizona, he taught graduates and concen-trated on the research and writing of economics. He said, "It is an adjustment to teach undergradu-ates and orient research toward a Christian's perspective here at Bethel." Brock is married and has two girls, ages 4 and 2. He said he spends much of his free time with them, but "doesn't have much spare time these days." As Chairman of the Economics Department, Brock has many re-sponsibilities. The department is, "in the process of changing re-quirements for economics, revis-ing curriculum and looking for a new faculty member. All this takes up a lot of time," com-mented Brock. Brock's only- previous connec-tion with Bethel was Wayne Gru-and John Oase from Brazil. From Bethel's point of view, it is handy to have these people on campus. During their stay, the missionaries are often asked to give classroom lectures, speak at chapel or to advise potential missionaries. From the missionaries' stand-point, the Chalberg Residence means not having to worry about finding a place to stay during furlough. It also provides them the convenience of using Bethel's facilities, and with the opportun-ity to take refresher courses at the seminary. Upon arriving at the source of their curiosity, Consuello and Maxwell pressed their noses against a large, cold window pane at the rear of the long building and peered intently inside. "Con-suello, there must be over 60 people in there, lounging around and singing, and they are all holding hands." "Some of the men even have beards. I knew it Maxwell, it's a commune! Wait until Uncle Me- Arty hears, ...someone's com-ing..." Immediately Consuello and Maxwell rushed headlong into a wooded area behind the building. They discovered a path and fol-lowed it until they came to a small lake. "Consuello, something is corn-ing up from under the water!" "Submarines! This is terrible, a foreign conspiracy right here!" " Wow, I love submarine races!" "Shut up. Now let's get away without being noticed. We have all the proof we need." With Maxwell stumbling along behind Consuello, the detectives disappeared into the darkness of the night. "I still say it was an art show..." dem, assistant professor of theo-logy. The two professors were room-mates in undergraduate school and are currently planning a re-search project together on the theological influences on econo-mic thought. It is still in the planning stage. After Dean Brushaber re-quested Brock to come to Bethel, Brock said he "considered the offer for quite some time and eventually decided to come." Brock said Bethel gives him, "an opportunity to work with other Christian faculty members from a variety of disciplines in clarifying the proper role of the Christian in today's economic world." Most of Brock's extra-curricu-lar activities are related to his job. He claims, "You can integrate your intellectual interests with your job." He also enjoys pro-gramming computers. His biggest challenge here at Bethel, he says, "is getting going and getting the job done." Dr Brock enjoys lecturing to students most when they are responsive. He also enjoys "interaction with faculty mem-bers." Coffee shop changes, doubles space by Darla Boltz Bethel's food service will take on many changes within the next few months, especially in the coffee shop. Wayne Erickson, co-director of food service, looks forward to re-opening the coffee shop sometime in December. "The plans for the new coffee shop double the former seating space. Our new coffee shop should seat a total of 276 people," Erickson said. Erickson also reported that the change will improve efficiency in service. Two counters and two cash registers will be used. This way students buying ice cream will not have to stand in line behind someone waiting for a grilled cheese sandwich. Also, students will find shorter lines and less congestion, Erick-son said. It will be possible to close the grill but keep the "ice cream and hot dog" counter open. cont. on page 5 BETHANY BAPTIST CHURCH Cleveland and Skillman Avenues Roseville, MN.

Church Telephone 631-0211 by Kraig Klaudt Five missionary families are making the Bethel campus their home while on furlough this year. Herman Tegenfeldt, professor of missions at Bethel Seminary, said that these families have en-riched life at Bethel since the Chalberg Missionary Residence opened 10 years ago. The Chalberg Residence is lo-cated one block north of the sem-inary classrooms. It is financed and operated by World Missions although it lies on land rented from Bethel. Missionaries staying there en-joy the comfort of furnished, three-bedroom apartments dur-ing their one-year vacation. Whether it is really a 'vacation' is debatable for the missionaries. After 4 to 6 years in the field, a missionary's furlough begins with three months to visit relatives, remedy health problems and take care of personal problems. The remainder of time in "the States" is spent completing re-ports, attending seminars and visiting some of the 40 churches across the area that support his mission program. The latter is Dana Larson's main concern. The Larsons are home for their second furlough since they went to Argentina in 1970. Larson says he can not find enough Sundays in the year to speak at all of the congregations that have supported him. Larson has a short trip to India planned during their furlough, missionary families on fudou Page 4 Coffee shop to include mosaic, Johnson wort commissioned by Jon Mogck A 34-foot long mosaic will be a part of the new coffee shop north wall. Designed by Dale R. John-son, associate professor of art, the mosaic's 4,665 four by four color tiles will capture and reflect the light from the northern win-dows in the new buildings. Johnson has named the com-position "Sun Through The Clouds." The mosaic was de-signed to "create an active, stim-ulating abstract landscape in mosaic tile that would bring vis-ual excitement and color into the lounge area," said Johnson. By doing this he also hoped to express life, vitality and inter-action. "In this proposed mosaic I see the simple motif of grass moved by fresh breeze as a metaphor for the Holy Spirit's work of love in this Christian Learning Commun-ity," said Johnson. One of the objectives for the mosaic was to respond to the architectural design of the "north light" windows that will be put in the building. According to Johnson, "The mosaic presents a simplified The success of our program depends largely upon the partici-pation of the student body. So far this semester, we have been more than pleased with the encour-agement and support that so many of you have given us at our various events. Our job would be impossible if we did not receive your help. The events coming next week include: Roller skating tonight at Saints Roller Rink from 12 a.m. to 2 a.m. for new campus only. The bus leaves from the gym at 11:30 p.m. Tomorrow night will be a corn-edy at the Guthrie, "Marriage," and a bus will leave at 6:30 p.m. from the gym doors. Next Friday, Oct. 27, will be a special Halloween Masquerade landscape as a setting for a brilliant light ray to pierce the clouds and illuminate the field below. This can be seen as a metaphor for Christ as "light of the world." The mosaic will also have a diagonal that will extend out 10 feet and then drop 6 feet to the floor. The diagonal requires ex-tensive the cutting but would result in a "beautiful configura-tion of color tile," Johnson said. Other artists sent in designs but the bulding committee sel-ected Johnson's design. "It's a good thing to see a Christian college like Bethel commissioning a work of art, having it executed professionally, and having it forever," stated Johnson. "My hope is that stu-dents will take time to look at it carefully." Johnson's idea was a natural outgrowth of his work for the past two years. Johnson will oversee the build-ing of the mosaic. An European-trained tile setter will be brought in to begin work on the mosaic as soon as the new buildings are structurally ready. The mosaic will be completed this year. roller skate.

Despite such odds, some foreign students have chosen to come to Bethel. These students also often face miles of red tape before they can study in the United States. For example, Ethiopian stu-dents peed a good GPA (straight A's) before they even think about studying overseas. Taye Birmachu, junior, said he had to get cleared with the Ethio-pian government before he could leave the service. He was on active duty for two years. The government was then giving pre-ference to students who wanted to study in eastern countries such as the USSR. After all his papers had been checked out, Taye went to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Next, he went to the Minister of Interior Affairs, who checked out his re-cords. Mayo Clinic, Red Cross out for blood The bi-annual Bethel blood drive will be on Friday, Oct. 27 from 9: a.m. to 3: p.m. The Red Cross is hoping for 290 pints of blood from Bethel, the majority of the blood going to Mayo Clinic. Sue Smith and Carolyn Olson are in charge of the drive, and the committee members are: Lynne Schroeder and Carol Dischinger, recruitment of workers; Pam Bickmore and Jenny Hoehl, re-cruitment of donors; Cory Dahl, publicity; and Ron Nilsson, set-up. There will be sign-up sheets by the P.O.'s next week for donors and volunteers. He then 'went to the Ethiopian Immigration where he was check-ed out thoroughly. Afterwards, he went to the American Embassy for his student visa and started making contacts with friends in the States, including Bethel friends. This took four months, even though Taye had good connec-tions. Before he left the country, Food service cont. from page 4 This will allow students to pur-chase these items at certain times, such as after basketball games, when the coffee shop would otherwise not be open. Erickson said the new coffee shop will allow more students to make reservations for the Royal Oak Room. He is also considering longer hours for the Oak Room, although this would mean closing the coffee shop on Thursday nights. Not all of the changes in the fOod services will be in the coffee shop. Erickson is bringing back the "special," which gives the student a balanced meal at a reduced rate. Erickson stated that the price of the "special" will always be less than buying the items separately, but will change from day to day. "I am looking for students' input so that changes can be made to suit the student body," Erickson said. Erickson hopes the Country Store can be maintained. "It is working well and allows faster service for many students." Taye was checked out thoroughly at the airport by the Ethiopian Immigration officials. "Of the 200 who applied, I was one of the four released," ex-claimed Taye. Taye's friend, Tecola Werku, second semester freshman, was not so lucky. He applied for a visa at the same time as Taye but was not able to leave until last Jan-uary. "I owe it to the Lord that I can here," said Tecola. He refused a scholarship to the USSR and waited three years to come to Bethel. While Tecola was waiting for his visa, the Ethiopians had some conflict with the Russians. During this time, the Ethiopian govern-ment relaxed its rules and Tecola was allowed to leave the country. One month after Tecola left Ethiopia, no one was allowed to leave the country. Sara Haile Sellasie, an Ethio-pian freshman, had problems get-ting clearance. "The problem was that I did not finish one year of the required national service.

As the play opens, the five characters in the play production are seated separately at a bar, and take turns describing the focal points of their lives to the audience, but have no interaction amongst themselves. Each of the bar's customers is still living on successes and fail-ures they had in the 196;'s. Although the play is set in 1974, the characters can only see pre-sent reality as an opportunity for lamenting the past. The customers portray Ken-nedy's assassination, student un-rest and revolt movements, Mari-lyn Monroe's death, living in a counter-culture and the Vietnam Couple lectures on relationships by Barb Trostad An attorney-author team, George and Margaret Hardisty of Concord, Calif., will lead a con-vocation on Fri., Oct. 27. An en-richment seminar on marriage and personal relationships will follow at the seminary on Oct. 27 and 28. Lectures, workshops and ques-tion- answer periods are planned. Special sessions for single, widowed and divorced persons will be included, and the Hard-istys will be available for in-dividual counseling after the ses-sions. Margaret Hardisty is the au-thor of "Forever My Love," a bestselling book on marriage re-lationships. She has written num-erous short stories, plays and musicals. She co-authored "Hon-est Questions, Honest Answers" with her husband. Her husband George is an attorney, counselor and lecturer. He serves on the board of dir-ectors and several nationally known organizations. The seminar is open to college and seminary faculty, staff and students. On the 27th, the sem-inar will be from 7-10 p.m. and on the 28th, from 9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. The cost is $25 per couple and $15 per person. War as the focal points for their existences.

Burns does an excellent job of displaying the Kennedy mystique and generating sincerity within her role. by Lisa Pepper Twelve Bethel students and faculty members attended the Wheaton Philosophy Conference on Oct. 12-14. Sponsored by Wheaton College in Illinois, the 25th Annual Phil-osophy Conference provided an opportunity for Christian philoso-phers to present and discuss theories relating to religious language. The distinguished lecturer for the event was William Alston, currently chairman of the Univer-sity of Illinois' philosophy de-partment. His topic for the Thursday evening opening lecture was "Can We Speak Literally About God?" "Symbolic Interpretations of Theological Discourse" was the subject of his second lecture. "I'm glad I went. It was a learning experience for me even though I couldn't understand a lot of it," said junior Mark Kershaw. Participants "attended lectures, seminars, chapel and informal dialogues and discussions. Sem-inars consisted of a professor reading his paper on an aspect of religious language. A response by another educator and a time of questions by the audience fol-lowed. "The people from Bethel seemed to like best Jerry Gill's "The Orphic Voice: Language, Reality and Faith" and James Spiceland's "D.Z. Phillips on Re-ligious Language." They were the clearest pre-sentations and seemed to deal with fundamental issues involved in the problems of religious / Due to the non-interacting dia-logue of the play, there is very little action on stage. All energy has to come from the dialogues themselves, which was carried out quite well by the cast. Each role came with its own set of mannerisms and vocabulary which separated the characters distinctly. "Kennedy's Children" is not an entertaining production, al-though there is humor spread throughout the dialogues. It is an intense reflection on the tragedies of the 60's and their repercus-sions still evident today. language. "They also had the most interesting discussion after-wards," said Randy Johnson, philosophy instructor. The conference was not strictly intellectual. People had a chance to socialize through coffee breaks, a trip into downtown Chicago and nights in a dorm or with friends. Margaret Van Etten, a sopho-more said, "The conference is not only for philosophers. This year's was also good for Bible or theology majors. I had a good time. The girl I stayed with was very nice. She made an effort to be with me as much as possible." Instructor Randy Johnson sum-marized the conference as being, at times disappointing, at times stimulating, and, overall, rewar-ding. It provided for greater unity and more informal fellowship bet-ween students and faculty." involved in activities they plan to set up. Some of the committees are in charge of such things as missions, social and political action, cultural life and recreation. Joy feels that one of the pri-mary goals for this year is "to recognize the potential of student senate and really work at it." She hopes the senate can "en-hance the academic end of semin-ary by complementing it," Joy hopes to do this by planning ahead and preparing activities for this year. The seminary senate has an open relationship with the ad-ministration. One of the senate members is a faculty representa-tive who is also the dean of students. Joy sits in and contri-butes to the Board of Regents meetings. Joy thinks the seminary senate is in for an "exciting" year. They hope to use the senate "as an instrument for personal and institutional growth." As for the future, the senate aims to unfold into a "more vital vehicle of communication."

With running mate Lou Wangberg, he is attempting to unseat Rudy Perpich as Minne-sota's governor, and end DFL dominance in state politics. He is tentatively scheduled to appear at Bethel on Wed. Oct. 25. Quie was born near Dennison, Minn., and still operates a farm in the area. After serving as a Navy pilot in World War II, Quie enrolled at St. Olaf college. Quie first encountered politics at St. Olaf, being elected president of the Young Republicans Club. Four years after he graduated in 1950, Quie was elected to the Min-nesota State Senate. In a 1958 special election, he won a U.S. Congressional seat. Since that election, Quie has Women get 8th place, meet goals by Joy Banta Bethel's Women's Cross Coun-try team placed eighth out of 17 teams at the Carleton Invitational last Saturday afternoon. "Our goal going into this meet was to run six personal bests and qualify three runners for Region-als at Iowa State on Nov. 3," said Shirley Dawson, cross-country coach. Those qualifying for regionals were: Ellie Abbot, Brenda Harris; Wendy Norberg; and Denise Egge, who had already qualified. Tina Anderson and Karlene Kline also ran personal bests. Tina is close to qaulifying for regionals. Their next meet is tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. at Como Park. It will be a coed meet with the men's team. Coach Dawson said, "We'd like to see a lot of support as we go against a tough Carleton team." Jim Chet Debbie won 11 consecutive Congressional campaigns as a Republican, the last with 69 per cent of the vote. This is especially noteworthy be-cause of the usually strong Democratic leanings of the area. Quie is now the ranking minori-ty member of the House Educa-tion and Labor Committee. He is a nationally recognized leader in educational legislation. In 1976, the American Council on Learning Disabilities honored Quie with its highest national award for his role in passing a bill guaranteeing public education programs to all handicapped children. He also holds seven honorary doctorate degrees. Throughout his career, Quie has been recognized as a politician with integrity. Though he has not been advertised for his "born againness," Quie says his faith has been a central focus of his life. His involvement in Washington prayer groups, and his ministry to Chuck Colson have been well-do-cumented. Quie's present platform in-cludes an "inflation proofed" tax plan and policies for initiative and referendum. Initiative, another of Quie's proposals, is a process by which, through petition, people may write laws for submission to the voter.

By the time he was ready to come to Bethel, the Ethiopian government was not allowing anybody to leave the country. So Eshete got an intransit visa to neighboring Nairobi, Kenya. He was there for six weeks. Dur-ing that time, he went to the American Embassy and managed to get a visa from there. "It was a miracle that I got here," said Eshete, echoing the thoughts of hjs Ethiopian col-leagues. by Anne Rosenthal Rice Bowl, a program which sponsors five children in Haiti, gives the Bethel community "a chance to show genuine love and concern for the spiritual and phy-sical needs of others," said Dan Dye, chairman of student sen-ate's Public Action Committee (PAC). The Rice Bowl program, dir-ected by PAC, supports each of the five children with $14 per month. Through the help of West Indies Missions in Aux Cayes, Haiti, this money supplies food, clothing and education for the children. Since Rice Bowl's beginning four years ago, money for the program has come from selling bowls of rice in Bethel's food otieyda ii cont. from page 8 The JV lost to Northwestern in a close match, 15-3, 7-15, and 15-17.

Because food service do-nates the rice, the entire dollar provides for the needs of the children. PAC chose to raise money by selling rice, because they be-lieved the visible presence of the rice bowl would cause the Bethel community to reflect upon the problems on the Third World. Money for the program does not come from rice sales alone. Proceeds from fundraisers such as pumpkin sales, bake sales and volleyball marathons supplement the income from rice sales. Pictures of the five children and their letters are displayed on the bulletin board in the FA building. Two of the children are girls; three are boys. Their ages range between 8 and 14. This display calls them "our children." The children also see them-selves as "our children." Every three months they send letters to PAC to inform us how they are and what they're doing. Each letter is signed "your son," or "your daughter." Rice Bowl is just one of the programs PAC directs in the name of the Bethel community. Each year all of PAC's programs focus on one social concern—this year it is human rights. PAC states that their primary function is to "address ourselves to salient social concerns and seek to sensitize students to these issues, thus enhancing the image of Bethel as a concerned Christian community."

Smith Hosting the Mankato Maver-icks for homecoming didn't seem to be such a bad idea, especially when fullback Greg Sutton cross-ed the goal line untouched in the second quarter, giving the Royals a 17-0 lead. And when quarterback Lonnie Holmgren combined with Sutton and wide receiver Rich Graves to convert a Mankato fumble into another Royals' touchdown, all looked well for the Bethel blue. But trailing 24-7, the Mavericks refused to succumb to the Royals' attack and went on to win, 35-24. The Royals' first score came ear-ly in the first quarter as Bethel's defense squared off against the Mankato offense. On first down and 25, following a personal foul against Mankato, defensive backs Scott Engstrom and Greg Peterson combined to foil an attempted Mankato pass. On third and 21, safety Randy Fredine snatched a Mankato receiver and tackled him 15 yards short of the first down. With Mankato punting on fourth down, cornerback Peter-son crashed into the Mankato backfield and blocked the punt. Scooping up the football, Peter-son sprinted into the end zone for th Royals' first score. by Steve Erickson The Bethel soccer team failed to take advantage of a key oppor-tunity last week, losing to and ty-ing two of the lesser teams in the conference. Mankato quarterback Bill Maples surprised the Royals mid-way through the second quarter, throwing a 72-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Scott Mayes, trimming the Royals' margin to 24-14. Primed by the touchdown, the Mankato defense held Bethel to only one first down on their next series, forcing the Royals to punt. After halting Mankato at their own 36-yard line, the Royals regained possession with twelve seconds left in the half. From there Holmgren launched three in-complete passes and the half end-ed with Bethel still leading 24-14. In the second half the Maver-icks quickly captured the lead from the Royals, capitalizing on a blocked punt and a fumbled kickoff. Mankato led for the first time in the game, 28-24. "We really had them on the rails the first half," said head coach Reynolds. "They didn't earn one touchdown." The Royals' offense, handily controlling the Mankato defense in the first half, found themselves coming up consistently short in the second half. Twice the Royals moved the ball to within the Mankato fifteen-yard line, failing to score both times. "We can't seem to eliminate those few little mistakes," said Reynolds. "We're an awfully good foot-ball team to be 2-4." Playing before a home crowd Wednesday, the Royals fell to Macalester 3-2. Saturday, Bethel and St. Mary's fought to a 1-1 deadlock in Winona. A goal by the center forward late in the second half gave by Carol Madison The volleyball team lost a well-played to match to Carleton, and then narrowly escaped an upset by Northwestern last week. Carleton defeated the Royals in three straight games, 11-15, 2-15, and 9-15. Both teams played well, sustaining several long rallies. The Royals were outserved in the first game, but were able to match the blocks and spikes of Macalester the win. The Scotties applied pressure throughout the half before finally scoring. The first half was played fairly evenly. Bethel controlled the early going with crisp passing. Doug Hage put the Royals ahead 1-0, spinning 180 degrees to fire the ball past the goalie. As has happened in past games, Bethel relaxed after controlling the early play. Macalester stormed back with two quick goals. The first was scored on a lofted shot into the top left-hand corner. The second Mac goal came on a re-bound after goalie Jeff Beckman misplayed a shot. The Royals tied the score at 2-2 late in the half. Joe Clement was tripped in the penalty area and Greg Thom converted the penalty shot. Saturday's game was played in cold, blustery weather. Both teams controlled the ball well in the middle of the field but had trouble as they neared the goal. The only goals of the game came midway through the first half. An unmarked St. Mary's for-ward put in the first tally, heading the ball off a corner kick. Five minutes later, Bethel knotted the score on a nifty passing play from Tim Morin to Hage to Scott Feltman who knocked in his fourth goal of the season.

The Royals are battl-ing to make the MIAC playoffs which start Nov. 4. The top six teams in the conference continue in post-season play. by Becky Dye Last Saturday Bethel finished first in a close meet with the University of Wisconsin, Superior (UWS) and rival Northwestern. All of the Bethel harriers ran their best times this season on the five-mile Como course. A pack of five Bethel runners; freshmen Bob Holt, Mark Doner and Ross Fleming, and juniors, Jim Feleen and Randy Bostrom; stuck together for two miles, keeping Northwestern's fifth man back two places and putting Bethel in good position for the victory. Dave Clapp achieved a personal best of 26:54. His previous best was 27:17 which Clapp ran on the Como course earlier this season. when Mandy Fawley came into the game providing good serving and key hits. But the rally fell short. Bethel had trouble with the shorter Northwestern team, but managed to pull out a win in four games, 15-11, 3-15, 15-12, and 18-16. The Royals fell behind in every game, but always came back at crucial points. Northwestern played aggressively and blocked several of Bethel's spikes. Northwestern scored seven straight points early in the first game, but Bethel came back to win when Sheryl Meyer served five points, including an ace. The Royals were not aggressive in the second game, and North-western defeated them easily. They again fell behind late in the third game, but excellent serving by Lori Olsen put Bethel back in the lead. Bethel came from behind in the fourth game to tie the score at 14-14, and then finally won 18-16. cont. on page 7 NW, UWS om improve Randy (Rudy) Bostrom also ran a personal best at 27:56. Coach Gene Glader attributed the better times and victory to the season's progressing and the run-ners being in better condition. "It was a beautiful day for running, cool and calm. We had good com-petition. "The pack of five helped; they encouraged each other as they ran and kept the Northwestern runner back," commented Glader. The final team scores were Bethel 38; Northwestern, 43; and UWS, 47. Northwestern runner Tim Malone came out the number one man for the day with a time of 26:12.
