Arden Hills
sees Bethel as
community
asset
by Janet Rutzen
Bethel is a welcome citizen of Arden
Hills. This means as individual student, as
well as institution, according to Arden
Hills Mayor Henry Crapeau, Jr.
"I would be more than happy to ap­point
knowledgeable and interested Beth­el
students to any of the eight (village)
advisory committees," said Mayor
Crapeau.
David Lissner, Bethel's Director of
Community Relations, supports such
involvement in the community for the
reason that "it is going to benefit the
student and anybody else who gets involved
because of the education and exposure he
receives."
Bethel students have a potential 20%
of the vote in Arden Hills and perhaps
even more, according to Lissner. Since
the laws giving 18-year olds the right to
vote and changes in residency require­ments
have taken place, students can now
exercise their right to vote in their college
community instead of their hometowns.
Bethel students hold a potential to sub­stantially
influence local election results.
"The lingering fear of drastic influence
is still in the back of citizens' minds,"
said Mr. Lissner. "Bethel should not take
a position that would alienate the village."
Mayor Crapeau said he has no personal
fear of an unfavorable influence on an
election.
"Bethel is occupying a pretty good
portion of the village and we have to know
what input you'd like and how to govern
accordingly," said the Mayor. "We wel­come
the students to Arden Hills and feel
they should exercise their duties as citi­zens
and should participate in govern­ment,"
said Mrs. Charlotte McNeish, Clerk
Administrator of Arden Hills. She also said
that the village has no fears of intimida-tion
from college students because they
are used to having a college in the com­muni
ty. There has been a school on the
present Northwestern Bible College cam­pus
for many years.
Information about how to register to
vote in Arden Hills and how to serve on
one of the committees, can be obtained
from Mrs. McNeish at the village office
at 633-5676.
Hugh McLeod, Jr., Bethel admissions
counselor, foresees an opportunity for
even greater involvement. He became a
member of the Human Rights Commission
of Arden Hills two years ago when he was
still a Bethel student. He still serves on
that committee.
The village elects four councilmen and
and a mayor for one and two year terms
respectively. Members of the eight village
committees are appointed by the mayor.
'Friday, Nov. 30, 1973
The committees are the Human Rights
Commission, Parks and Recreation Com­mittee,
Public Safety Committee, Public
Works Committee, Finance Committee,
Planning Commission, Board of Appeals,
and the Civic Center Committee.
Mayor Crapeau said that Bethel is very
welcome in the community along with
Northwestern. But he "wouldn't want
another college in the village." Arden Hills
is running short of land, with the Twin
Cities Ordnance Plant also taking up a big
chunk of land.
A disadvantage to Arden Hills is that
Bethel pays no property taxes on its 214
acre piece of land. This is because it is
church affiliated.
"The village simply felt the assets of
having Bethel as a part of the community
outweighed the disadvantages," said May­or
Crapeau.

Bethel will
stick with
contract of
audio system,
Wilbee says
by J. Caress
In the last issue, it was noted that the
controversy surrounding the installment
of radio and audio equipment here is not
a black-and white issue.
Although Audio Engineers, the Minne­apolis
firm who contracted to do the job,
has not performed as well as it might
have, it must be emphasized that the
blame for this turn of events does not lie
entirely on the firm's shoulders.
Audio Engineers was chosen to do the
job by the Building Committee on the
recommendation of Phil Carlson, the
College Building Coordinator. This de­cision
(as earlier noted) was made in a
very short time and perhaps could have
been better researched.
However the decision was made, the
tardiness of Audio Engineers in installing
the equipment could not have been for­seen.
According to Arnold Wicklund,
chairman of the building committee,
"Audio Engineers delivered comprehen­sive
specifications for the job in a very
effective presentation. We had no idea
they would be so slow to deliver."
Mr. Wicklund also stated that K & M
Electronics was not considered for the
job because they did not submit a bid.
When asked if he knew that specifications
were submitted to Phil Carlson by K & M
Electronics that weren't shown to the
building committee, Mr. Wicklund said he
had no idea such specs had been offered.
Dr. Robert Berglund of the Music
Department has expressed dissatisfaction
with Bethel's handling of the building of
the P A system in the gym. According to
Dr. Berglund, the Music Department was
promised a system that would be effective
for band and chorus concerts, but Audio
Engineers was directed to install equip­ment
of a lower caliber.
Therefore, Berglund says, Audio Engi­neers
cannot be blamed for the fact that
the Music Department will have to rent
an expensive speaker system for its future
concerts. Audio Engineers put in speech­quality
equipment because that's what
Bethel ordered.
Dr. Roy Wilbee, Bethel's Director of
Non-Print Media, summed up the situa­tion.
"In the gym, we're going to work with
the present system plus speakers and
other additional equipment that Audio
Engineers will provide free for the Festi­val
of Christmas. Perhaps we'll buy addi­tional
speakers at a later date.
two
"We've pretty much decided to stick
with Audio Engineers and press them to
finish what they've started. After all, it's
to their benefit to get done quickly,
because they won-'t get paid until they're
finished and they have a lot of money
tied up at Bethel," he said.
So the pressure is on Audio Engineers
to begin moving more quickly toward
completion of the Bethel sound systems.
"Before we let them out of here," said
Dr. Wilbee, "we're going to thoroughly
check out their work. We're also going to
make sure they leave us a complete set of
schematics that any electronic engineer
can read.
"Finally, we're going to require them
to post a Performance Bond to warranty
their work for a year.
"We have checked into Audio Engi­neers;
standing as a reputable business
firm and have found no reason to doubt
their financial soundness or their capa­bility.
There have been other instances,
however, when they have delivered
products to their customers later than
expected."
Dr. Wilbee concluded, "We expect
Audio Engineers to finish the job here
satisfactorily and quickly. We will not be
satisfied until the job is done and done
right, and we won't pay them until we're
satisfied. "
LRe declares
amnesty for
book losers
by Pam Schultz
"People are more important than
things, right?" a student recently ques­tioned
Ms. Dewey, director of the Learn­ing
Resource Center.
Ms. Dewey slowly replied, "Yes,
people are more important than things.
But when thirty people are taking a class
and a term paper comes up, who is con­sidering
people when individuals take
sources without checking them out? Isn't
that person saying I am more important
than others?"
At the present time several hundred
books, magazines and records are missing
from the LRC. Along with many refer-
. ence books and commentaries, some
volumes of expensive sets are not on the
shelves or in circulation. A case in point
is a volume from the $500-set of the
Encyclopedia Judaica which has been
removed from the LRC.
Every year hundreds of books are
found at the end of the term, most of
them stashed in some corner or left
behind in the dormitories.
What is the solution? Turnstiles? Elec­tronic
systems? Ms. Dewey said that
neither of these alternatives are right for
Bethel. "Besides the fact that they're
terribly expensive to install, I don't feel
it's even ethical for a Christian college,"
she said.
The LRC will check out almost every­thing.
"A checking-out system ensures
the availability of all the resources to the
entire community.
"If students would be honest them­selves
and also return any books they
happen to find lying about, our problem
would be largely solved," she said.
The LRC has declared three days of
amnesty, beginning tomorrow and ending
Tuesday. During this time the book drop
outside the LRC will be left open for
people to return any books they have or
have found.
Music Festival

IIElephant Farm" revisited
To the Editor:
Almost 2000 years ago, before the Donkey Corral or the
Elephant Fram existed, a great farm called the Imperial Boot
Farm ruled over most of the other farms, including the Sacred
Kosher Farm. During this time the Great Sacred Lamb was
born on the Sacred Kosher Farm. The Great Sacred Sheep told
all the animals to love every animal just as much as he loved
himself and not to speak any evil against any other animal.
The Lamb was considered wise and good by many of the
animals and they followed some of his teachings. Even today
many animals follow what he said.
One day the Sacred Lamb saw a group of Holy Pigs about
to throw rocks at an ally cat. When he saw this he said to them
that if none of them had done wrong then that animal should
be the first to throw a rock. Within three years the Great
Sacred Lamb went to the Great Sky Farm which His Father
rules.
Soon after the Sacred Lamb left the earth a famous carrier
pidgeon, named Paul, wrote a letter to a little carrier pidgeon,
named Titus. In this letter the famous carrier pidgeon told the
little carrier pidgeon that he should obey the government of
the farm because this was what the Sacred Lamb wanted him,
and all carrier pidgeons, to do.
If we as carrier pidgeons are to obey the ruler (Imperial
Bull) and not to judge others if we are guilty of wrong doings,
such as telling an animal something that is false, then how can
we claim that the Most Excellent Imperial Bull is not telling
us the truth.
We as carrier pidgeons believe that the Great Sacred Lamb
and his father will judge all animals when they get to the Sky
Farm. We also believe that we should obey what the govern­ment
wants to do, then should we not forget about the Rotten
Grapes Scandal and obey the Imperial Bull when he tells us we
should be busy doing the work that needs doing today and to
forget about spilt grape juice?
A very small carrier pidgeon,
Roy Stockwell

To the editor:
In the September 21st issue of the Clarion I wrote an
article which expressed the Food Service's wishes to prevent
congestion to the serving areas. The scramble system is what it
recommends. I'd like to explain one reason why it isn't work­ing,
namely, the Food Service employees.
At the noon and supper hours, most servers at the main
course island simply don't do their job right. During the
rushes, they stand there waiting for each person to tell them
what they want before they dish it up. As five or six people
crowd in front of them, they pleasantly serve each individually.
Thus lines develop which reach the middle of Lemon Lounge
and advance at a snail's pace.
If, during rushes, servers would keep at least one normal
serving of each dish on the counter at all times, people could
walk by and take what they want. Only those wanting more or
less than usual would have to ask for it. This would greatly
facilitate the movement of people through the whole area,
and that, according to the Food Service, would save them
money.
Sincerely,
Doug Johnson
Student Association President:
New
Priorities
by Dan Nelson
It's budget time at Bethel, a good time to explain the
mechanics of the Student Association budget. Along with an
explanation of how the budgeting system works, I'll introduce
the budget figures that I have proposed for the coming year.
Most colleges and universities use a system of student fees
to finance the student association. Each student pays a set fee
each quarter or semester, separate from tuition. The amount of
money is directly related to the size of the student body. This
is a good system, since most student association expenditures
are also directly related to the number of students (the num­ber
of newspapers that are printed, for one example).
At Bethel, the money for the Student Association is a
part of the general budget, just as all the academic depart­ments
and extra-curricular activities are. This method is good
in one way, for it assures a more responsible framework for
financial responsibility (observe the current mess with the U.
of M. student group). It is a poor method of allotment, in that
it may not reflect changes in the student population. Also, our
budget proposal is subject to administrative review, and they
can just about give us what they want to. (No students are
invited to budget deliberations with the Dean, an inequity). So
far, the administration has been reasonably fair with budget
allocation. The real test, however, will come this year. Al­though
student population has increased 14%, Dean Olson has
requested that the budget increases be kept to 5%. If we fol­lowed
this suggestion, we would be losing a lot of ground, and
would be forced to curtail some of our operations. Therefore,
I have presented, for approval, a budget for the 1974-75
school year of $34,450 for the Student Association, a 14%
increase over last year's $30,000 budget. With this amount,
(detailed below) we will keep pace with our student popula­tion
and our needs.
GENERAL ACTIVITIES $2,000
This is money that is allocated throughout the year by the
Senate to such deserving groups as the International Stu­dent
Association, the cheerleaders, the hockey club, etc.
It is also used to finance special projects, such as the blood
drive. Our request in this area is the same as last year's
budget.
OFFICE and ADMINISTRATION 1,000
Office expenses and travel expenses for the Senate and
Association officers. Same as last year.
CLARION 13,000
Our campus newspaper. This figure is nearly a $4,000
increase over last year. This is due to a large increase in
printing costs, a proposed additional assistant editor for
news, and a larger issue, once-a-week schedule.

COEVAL 750
Formerly budgeted with the Clarion, this is a new budget
item for Bethel's literary magazine. Most of this figure
is for printing, with minimal amounts for stipend and
expenses.
STIPENDS 4,400
The money paid to our hard-working officers in exchange
for their hard work. Same as last year.
SPIRE 7,000
A $3,750 cut from last year. This reflects a new priority
on the part of the Student Association towards other
types of media. It will also mean that next year's year­book
will be smaller.
KABY (radio) 4,500
A new budget item for the Association. As soon as new
equipment is installed, our radio station will'be on-the-air
for about 60 hours a week. Much of this amount will be
allocated toward building up record libraries and other
such long-term expenses.
CAMPUS CO-ORDINATOR OFFICE 300
Same as last year.
EVENTS 1,500
Used by the Campus Co-ordinators for special campus
events, outside of the Student Activity Cards.
This is the budget proposal for next year. It is by no
means final. After the final total figure is set by the Dean, the
Senate will deliberate the breakdown of that total figure. This
will almost surely make the December Senate meetings quite
interesting. If you have an interest in the final deliberation of
our budget, join us at 6 :30 p.m. every Tuesday night in the
lounge of the Academic Center.
Editor's note: Last Tuesday Dean Olson replied to Nelson's
budget proposals with a cut to $31,500. We urge all interested
students to attend next Tuesday's (December 4) Senate
meeting to voice an opinion on next year's Student Senate
budget.

Campus coordinators
plan winter activities
We think it's about time we talk to you, the Bethel com­munity,
about what we, as campus coordinators, are trying to
do this year. We've found this year tremendously challenging
and unique and have had a great time serving you. We hope
you're well satisfied with the social atmosphere at Bethel.
Last year we saw a real need to expand Bethel's social
life beyond the limitations of an event. We feel that the new
campus has potentially some of the best facilities of any cam­pus
in the area for activities, including several acres of wooded
hills and our own lake. Although it is going to take time and
money to develop these resources fully, it is our desire to
initiate the process this year.
With this in mind, as some of you know we have made
canoes available to you through the intramurals program.
Although they haven't been used extensively this fall because
of the weather, we 'II have them back this spring. Another
project in the planning stage involves the development of a
winter activity program that will include skiing, tobagganing,
and ice skating. We are rebuilding the ski tow and will be
building tobaggan runs and a specified ice skating area. A
warming house is also in the plans. You 'II be hearing more
about "Winter - '74" in the near future. We hope these pro­grams
will go far in supplementing our events with day-to-day
activities that can be enjoyed at all times. Such ideas as an
activity center have been considered and are possibilities
within the coming year.
Our understanding of your needs, however, is limited.
We were not appointed as your campus coordinators to dictate
our social tastes upon you. Therefore, we are asking for as
much feedback as possible. What kind of activities/facilities
would make Bethel a better place? What kind of things would
you like to do during a study break, on Saturday and Sunday
afternoons, or on weekday afternoons? We promise that every
one of your suggestions will be considered and, if possible,
used creatively. Please take this opportunity to react seriously.
We need your help.

To them that would
leave the nest
and trust their lives
to fragile wings
that strech out
to grasp the sky,
to them belong
the lonely heights,
and the wind swept horizons
To them that would
fling their lives
out into space,
to see if the wind
will hold them,
to them belong
the roaring wind rivers,
and the mountain peaks
that none have touched.
Theirs is not glory or crowns,
but theirs is
the lonely and everlasting wind
as it carries them skyward
to the sun.
For theirs is the life of the Eagle.

You slammed it to the cold ground.
You trampled on it.

My heart broke into a million pieces.
Still you weren't content.

You picked up the pieces.
Only to grind them through your fingers.

Legacy of equipment
worth $75,000
passes to Bethel
by Chuck Jackson
Bethel is the recipient of a $75,000
gift of equipment from the Andersen
Foundation of Stillwater. The equipment,
formerly the property of now defunct
Albert Lea College, was donated by
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Andersen of Stillwater,
whose Foundation was a large creditor to
Albert Lea.
According to President Lundquist,
"Albert Lea was an experiment that
didn't work out, as tuition receipts alone
accounted for the cost of operating that
college." He continued, "We thought the
experiment (Albert Lea) was a good one;
but we are greatful also for the great pro­visions
of the Lord who increased the
amount of equipment we have to work
with here at Bethel." Lundquist further
pointed out that Mr. and Mrs. Andersen
have long been friends of Bethel and that
they have contributed to Bethel for
several years.
Paul Drake, director of Auxilary
Enterprises, provided a thorough account­ing
of the equipment to be received,
which can only be partially listed here.
Included in the list are: much audio visual
equipment, typewriters, microscopes,
maintainence equipment, a John Deere
lawn tractor, many musical instruments,
file cabinets, shelving, much athletic
equipment, bookstore materials, etc. Also
included are about 15,000 volumes from
the Albert Lea library, of which approxi­mately
3,000 will make a new contribu­tion
to our own library, according to
Margaret Dewey, LRC director. Drake's
estimate of the total donation stands in
excess of $75,000.
Paul Redin, associate professor of
mathematics, will be responsible for get­ting
the equipment to Bethel or to stor­age.
Beginning on December 17, and con­tinuing
through January 3 or 4, Redin and
two crews of students will pack equip­ment
and load it onto semi-vans which
will then deliver it to Bethel or to storage.
Redin remarked that "the work will take
place under hardship conditions, as there
is neither heat nor water in the buildings
at Albert Lea." Yet Redin felt that work­ing
10-12 hours a day under hardship
conditions would not make them "lose
perspective. After all," he said, "it's a gift
and we are very excited for Bethel." In
addition, he stressed that the moving crew
would do a "responsible job even in
clean-up," as Bethel's reputation will be
involved as well.
Drake echoed Redin's feelings, "It is
an exciting thing for Bethel, as it is an
answer to many things. Everyone should
realize that Dr. Lundquist was initially
contacted the day after Bethel's day of
prayer (November 8). It is something to
be truly thankful for."

Artist speaks
at Convo
by Judy Harrington
Artists aren't spending enough time
on their art today, according to George
Morrison, Indian (Chippewa) artist and
present professor of studio arts at the
University of Minnesota.
In a convocation speech in the Fine
Arts Center Gallery Tuesday, November
18, Morrison expressed his view of the
change that has taken place in the visual
arts in the last 20 years.
"With the advent of expressionism in
the 1950's came a new sense of immed­iacy
to art. Artists discarded time con­suming
methods of work for new, time
saving methods," he said.
Morrison explained that an art student
today finds it difficult to spend one hour
on a drawing, in contrast to the twelve
hours per drawing students used to be
required to spend.
Born in Grand Marais, Minnesota, in
1919, Morrison is a member of the Grand
Portage Indian Reservation of northern
Minnesota. A graduate of the Minneapolis
School of Art, he has also studied with
the Art Students League in New York and
the University of Aix-Marseilles, France.
He is presently showing selected public
collections of his works at the Bezalel
National Art Museum, Jerusalem ; the
Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; various
places throughout the country; and at
Bethel College in the Fine Arts Center
Gallery.
His collection at Bethel Morrison de­scribed
as "an overview of the last 15
years" of his work. He feels his Indian
heritage has influenced his art, causing
him to be fascinated by nature and to
portray it. Morrison's major mediums
have been tempera and ink drawings and
paintings. He is now experimenting with
a new "painting" technique - that of
wood mosaic. One such mosaic is exhib­ited
in the Bethel gallery.
The George Morrison show in the Fine
Arts Center Gallery will last through
December 14.

Women's rights are
next at pi gamma mu
"Should there be a women's Equal
Rights' Ammendment?" will be the topic
of next week's Pi Gamma Mu lecture. The
speaker will be Dr. David Ondercin, spe­cial
instructor of the Bethel History De­partment,
and the meeting will be held in
room AC 333 on Thursday, December 6.
Some of the questions Dr. Ondercin

equal rights, and, if so, what is it? On
what bases are equal rights issues argued?
Dr. Ondercin will speak beginning at

"As a college, we demand services and
are very definitely a guest of the com­munity,"
said Mr. Lissner, "and we should
take the responsibility."
Had Bethel not purchased it, this land
would probably have been used for mul­tiple
residences or townhouses. "The
revenue produced would probably be
about equal to the services the residents
demand," reasoned Lissner. "But we are
guests. We should consider our guest
status in voting as well as in making
requests. "
Two years ago, Professors Dwight
Jessup and William Johnson tried to or­ganize
a committee to keep communica­tion
open between the village and Bethel.
But it never worked out. Mr. Jessup indi­cated
hopes for a successful endeavor
soon.
The college has not affected the com­munity
very much so far according to
Mr. McLeod, "but the potential is there.
We can serve the community here in
various forms."
The Arden Hills Human Rights Com­mission
hopes that Bethel may offer
courses to the community in the future.
Mr. Lissner said, "In many instances
we will be able to give su bstantial service
to the people."
"There is very good cooperation be­tween
the college and the village," said
Mrs. McNeish.
Passons,cops
clarify parking
policies
by Bob Winter
There is a parking problem at Bethel,
according to Dennis Passons, dean of men
and acting chairman of the Traffic Com­mittee.
Students, teachers, staff, and
visitors leave their cars in places not
designated for parking and, as a result,
receive a ticket.
The "tags" are issued by the Arden
Hills Police Department. "The A.M.P.D.
is on campus at the request of the college
administration," explained Passons. "They
provide us with a protective patrol and
the enforcing of our on-campus traffic
regUlations. "
Such an arrangement means that reve­nue,
in the form of fines, may leave the
campus without buying the school any­thing.
However, if the college were to
hire an independent guard to patrol the
campus, more money would be spent.
"At the reduced fine of $4 (Note :
This rate may change, at which time stu­dents
will be notified), we might expect
to make $500 to $1000 in a year," said
Dean Passons. "To hire a sufficient guard
service, we would have to spend around
$16,000.
"The Arden Hills police are extremely
co-operative. The policies they enforce
on campus are determined by the college.
Thus, tickets are issued only according to
campus traffic rules."
Every person on campus should know
the rules. These rules are brought to stu­dent
attention three separate times : once
in the Student Handbook, once in a gen­eral
handout, and once in information
given to all who register theirs cars.
Still, some people have called the
Arden Hills Village Hall , disturbed that
they had been ticketed. Justice-of-the­Peace
Victor Pomerenke has handled
some of these cases.
"I have dismissed a few cases in which
a person visiting the college on business
was ticketed, not being acquainted with
the rules . But I cannot dismiss a student
when his excuse for parking in a wrong
place is that he wanted to walk less, " said
Pomerenke.
On the Bethel campus, a Traffic Com­mittee
has been formed to deal with some
of the problems. On the Committee are
representatives of any and all groups
which may be affected by the tickets.
Students, faculty, administration, staff
and other people are being represented.
"The purpose of the committee is to
review policy and requested changes in
policy which may alleviate the problem,
explained Dean Passons. "We will also
meet to review special cases of those who
receive tickets."
"Such a committee is very welcome,"
said Justice-of-the-Peace Pomerenke. "I
appreciate any advice or recommenda­tions
involving the individual cases that
they will be able to give."
"The policy is pure and simple," stated
Passons . "Park only in the parking lots, in
the marked areas. The problem would be
greatly reduced if the person would think
'be considerate' rather than think "con­venience
'. "
Harriers race
to raise funds
for spring trip
by Dave Greener
Boston is the annual scene of a 26 mile
(and 385 yard) marathon; but next week
Bethel trackmen will be holding a mara­thon
of their own. It will be in the form
of a 24 hour "race."
Tracksters will take turns, beginning at
3 p.m. Friday afternoon (December 7),
rounding the quarter mile track at
Moundsview Senior High School.
They won't just be running in circles.
According to cinder co-captain Steve
Whittaker the "race" is to help finance a
southern 'training trip next spring. Stu­dents,
businesses, alumni, faculty and
others are being contacted to serve as
"race" sponsors - to pledge a monetary
contribution for every marathon mile
made.
Whittaker hopes to have two or three
trackmen at the race at all times. Short
distance cindermen, for example, might
run a mile at a time. A distance runner's
turn might find him logging several.
Supervisors are to work in shifts to take
tab of the 24 hour mileage.
According to Whittaker, only "really
terrible" weather would cancel the race.
Besides the marathon, Bethel track­men
are also currently selling "Happen­ings"
to help finance a training trek.
"Happenings" is a coupon booklet
offering discounts at Twin Cities dining
and entertainment establishments. It
sells for $6 and may be purchased from
any trackman or from Coach Gene
Glader.
Hockey Club
expects a
good season
by Curtis Kregness
Hockey Club at Bethel College allows
students to get together and play hockey
in an informal manner.
John Erickson, a Bethel stUdent, co­ordinator
and coach for Hockey Club,
said that 17 students have made a firm
commitment to participate in this year's
program, which is just getting under way.
"The guys this year seem really excited to
represent Bethel with a good hockey
team," Erickson added.
When regular practices begin soon,
Hockey Club will practice as often as
twice a week at one of several area ice
arenas - St. Paul Academy Arena, Rose­ville
Arena, or Shoreview Arena.
Tom Correll, faculty adviser for Hoc­key
Club since the fall of 1971, com­mented
on several problems inherent in
any sport under a "club" status. He said
that there is a typical lack of organization
and lack of funds. Also, an effective club
req uires "strict dedication" from all par­ticipants.
At Bethel, Correll noted, inter­est
in Hockey Club has usually been high,
and the big problem has been lack of
funds. "A 15 to 18-game schedule as a
club would require about $1000," Correll
said.
Hockey Club did playa 15-game sche­dule
in 1971-71, as a result of dona­tions
by several local businessmen. The
club played junior college teams, college
junior varsity squads, and even a few
varsity teams.
Last year, support for Hockey club
fell, because of lack of money, and lack
of dedication from the players. Erickson
said that Hockey Club had to withdraw
from a 20-game schedule last year be­cause
of "the guys' lack of commitment."
This year looks more promising. Erick­son
said that the participants seem com­mitted,
and two games have already been
scheduled with Carleton College hockey
teams. But again, there is a lack of money.
"We desperately need donations for Hoc­key
Club," Erickson commented. The
players usually furnish some of the mon­etary
support themselves, but outside
support is needed to keep the program
alive.
A sport with a "club" status, as op­posed
to varsity status, has one main
advantage. That is, interested persons not
from Bethel are allowed to participate.
This would allow Bethel Seminary stu­dents,
for instance, to play in Bethel's
Hockey Club.
Both Erickson and Correll observed
that, with administrative backing, a var­sity
hockey program at Bethel would have
no difficulty gaining enough interested
students. The "Minnesota hockey culture"
guarantees that, Erickson said. "However,
I am not calling for hockey as a varsity
sport at this point in time," Correll
stated, noting the great financial burden
that already rests on Bethel in its recent
move to a new campus.

Wrestlers edged, 24-21
by Tim Benhardus
The Bethel wrestling team opened its season Saturday,
November 24, by dropping a close match to Lakehead Univers­ity.
Although it was a disappointing loss, the Royals look to
have one of the best teams in quite a few years at Bethel.
Lakehead came into the match after defeating two very
strong teams the night before, St. Thomas and St. Johns.
Chuck Haaland wrestled the 118 match. Chuck, who is
wrestling for his first year, had a disappointing day as he was
pinned by Lakehead's John O'Brien in 3:05. The score became
tied at 6-6 when freshman Bill Head picked up a forfeit in the
126 pound bracket.
Senior captain Dave Peterson led the Royals by pinning
his man in 3: 12, controlling his opponent completely. At this
point, the score was Bethel 12, Lakehead 6.
Freshman Mitch Turner won a very tough 3-2 decision in
the 142 lb. weight class. He won on advantage time, for which
he received one point. (The time is kept for the period a
wrestler is considered to be in control of the match. When a
wrestler has a one minute riding advantage, he receives one
match point.) The score now was Bethel 15, Lakehead 6.
The Ontario wrestlers struck back when Carl Eyjolfson
pinned Bruce Peterson in 5:04 in the 150 lb. class. Yet Bethel
still led 15-12.
The 158 lb. match was probably the most dissappointing
of the day as Bill Lott lost 5-4. With 25 seconds remaining
Grant Lavalle got a takedown and his first lead in the match
which held up for the victory. The meet score now stood at
15-15.
Fred Witzgall, the Tri-State Conference's most valuable
wrestler, completely controlled his opponent in the 167 lb.
bracket. Fred won 9-1 to give Bethel an 18-15 lead.
At 177 Dave Hanks wrestled a fine match as he almost
pinned his opponent several times. Dave won 6-0 and Bethel
led 21-15 going into the final two matches.
Lakehead's very strong 190 pounder quickly tied the score
as he pinned Larry Brandes in 3: 47. Finally, the Heavyweigh t
match was the highest scoring of the day; but Bethel's Jerry
Flasch came out on the short end of a 10-7 score. Thus,
Lakewood edged Bethel by a 24-21 score.
After the match, Coach David Klostreich said, "We lost a
close one; but I want you to know that this is going to be the
best wrestling team at Bethel in several years."
The Royals' next match is on Monday, December 3
against Pillsbury in the Bethel gym at 7 :00 p.m.

Royals lose to
Stout
b.y Curtis Kregness
Bethel's Steve Scroggins racked up 38 points last Friday
night - over half of the Royals' game total - but it wasn't
enough to beat the fast-breaking Stout State Blue Devils from
Wisconsin.
The Blue Devils took a half-time lead of 41 to 30, and
doubled that advantage in the last two quarters to finally
crush the Royals 94 to 72. Stout State's superior performance
at the free-throw line was one of the game's deciding factors.
The Blue Devils sunk 26 free throws in 29 attempts, compared
to the Royals' meager 6 for 15. Bethel committed 24 fouls,
and Stout State was called for 20 fouls.
The Blue Devils' two big point-getters were Bill Lyons,
35 points, and Virgil Dortch, 24 points. Dortch came alive in
the second half to spark a major part of Stout's fast-moving
attack.
The Royals seemed plagued by passing trouble throughout
the game. John Priestly provided a ray of hope when he
swished two straight jump shots from the corner early in the
third quarter, but he failed to continue that crowd-pleasing
performance.
Paul Reasoner's tenacious defense was one of the few
bright spots in the Royals' losing effort. However, even his per­formance
was overshadowed by Scroggins' deadly accuracy
from all over the court - 16 points in the first half and 22
points in the second.
Tim Maring was Bethel's next highest scorer, with 11
points. Paul Healy and Ted Steen were good for 6 and 5 points,
respectively. Phil Aune, Priestly, and Reasoner completed the
scoring with 4 points each.
In the Royals' first basketball game of the season, Novem­ber
17, they trounced the Bethel Alumni 82-68.
Tomorrow, the Bethel cagers travel to Carleton College
for a 7:30 contest.
