Senate Hears Ban Move
Motion Leads Discussion
On Controversial Issue
by J. D. Patterson
Last Monday evening the Student Senate was presented
with a modest proposal to replace the present structure of
the senate with one ten-member council.
Modest, because it was not claimed that the proposal
would be a panacea for the many ills that plague student
government on this campus, but rather the proposal is an
attempt at constituting a more practicable forum for both
individual and group student interaction not only with the
administration and faculty but with their fellows.
The proposal was in the form of a constitutional change
presented by Bert Heep. A student life council made up of
a president, secretary, treasurer, and the chairmen of the
academic, athletic, cultural, off-campus, publicity, religious
and social committees would be instituted to act as the main
governing unit
All interstudent action, i.e. act-ing

proposal is handled by ad hoc com-mittees

body as the situation warrants

"The First Century Church in a
Twentieth Century World" is the
theme of the twenty-third annual
Bethel Founders' Week, for which
laymen and ministers from all
over the nation will converge on
campus February 21-25.
According to Carl Lundquist,
president of Bethel College and
Seminary, "Founders' Week at
Bethel this year w i 11 afford
glimpses of what the Lord is doing
in both the church and the world,
and hopefully may inspire us also
to be more daring and revolution-ary
in proclaiming the gospel for
our day."
Guest speakers for the con-ference
will be Dr. Ralph Kei-per,
Rev. Robert Boyd Munger,
Dr. Ralph Powell and Dr. Wilbur
Smith.
Dr. Keiper will lead the 8 a.m.
Bible study hours and address the
rally scheduled for Wednesday
night. Dr Keiper is an ordained
Baptist minister and director of
research for the Evangelical Foun-dation
Incorporated.
Rev. Munger, who serves on the
Commission on Ecumenical Mis-sion
and Relations of the United
Chapeltime at Bethel will con-sist
of a cross-examination debate
on Thursday, February 17.
A cross-examination debate is
one in which each of the four
participants will give a major
speech and then be questioned
by an opposing debater.
Those taking part in the debate
will be Tim Williams and Sharon
Ann Larson from Bethel and
William Overmoe and Lynn Grif-feth
from the University of Minne-sota.
All are varsity debaters.

A Symposium of the Church will
be held each afternoon of the con-ference
at 2 p.m. to consider the
nature of the church and its role
in modern culture. Dr. Anton
Pearson, Dr. Berkeley Mickelsen,
Dr. Virgil Olson and Dr. Alphin
Conrad, Bethel Seminary profes-sors,
are participating in the dis-cussions.

under which they labor, as
well as the role of the church in
their enterprise.
Music for the program will be
provided by the College Festival
Choir and missionary, Mrs. May-burn
Merchant.
A panel composed of mission-aries
will discuss the problems
they have encountered. Clarence
Bass will deliver the evening's
message.
All Founder's Week visitors are
invited to tour the new Seminary
facilities. Tours are scheduled for
1 p.m. on Wednesday and Thurs-day.
Bus transportation to the Sem-inary
campus will be provided
throughout the week for the con-venience
of visitors attending those
seminars located at the Seminary.
Two Bethel administrators, Eu-gene
Sprinkel and Lloyd Russell,

Mr. Sprinkel, Assistant Dean of
Students, handled financial aid pro-grams
while at Bethel. This work

loan company which offers tuition
time-payment plans to students.
Mr. Sprinkel is now joining Tui-tion

Program (PAAP) was aimed at
male college graduates between 20

less than the 40 hours needed for

Successful applicants will be
assured of a slot at United's
Flight Training Center in Denver
upon obtaining on their own the
required private and commercial
pilot licenses at a Federal Avia-tion

If needed, a liberal financing
plan has been arranged by United
through a Chicago bank. Loans of
up to $3,000 are available and re-payment
would not start until the
pilot has completed United's 17-
week flight training course. A com-mercial
license-165 hours—gener-ally
represents a $2,500 invest-ment.
Mason emphasized that the hir-ing
of "low time" pilots does not
represent a lowering of standards.

20 applicants who meet the basic

Page 2 the CLARION Wednesday, February 16, 1966 Senator Addresses Colleagues;
Stresses Inevitability of Conflict
WASHINGTON (B P A ) — A
United States Senator charged his
colleagues to examine the "moral
obligations" imposed upon them
by the "inevitable" conflict of
life.
Addressing the Senate prayer
breakfast on "The Inevitability of
Conflict," Sen. Wallace F. Bennett
(R., Utah) said that opposition is
a necessary good. Without oppo-sites
there could be no choice,
and without choice there could be
neither freedom nor happiness, he
said.
The prayer breakfast is a
weekly meeting of interested
Senators, with each one speak-ing
to the group at some time.
Sen. John C. Stennis (D., Miss.)
has spearheaded the gathering
for a number of years. The
group promotes an annual pray-er
breakfast, usually attended
by the President.
Looking at the position they fill
as members of the United States
Senate, Bennett called attention
of his fellows to some "obvious"
moral obligations:
1. Each has the responsibility
for developing the highest possi-ble
standard of personal values,
both temporal and spiritual.
2. Each has the responsibility
to himself and to God, to be
"active rather than passive in
the inevitable conflict."
3. As seen in the Revelation

Discovery of Doubt Value
Initiates Campus Thought
The extracurricular intellectual activity for the first week
of this new semester has hopefully provided an indication that
the characteristically "anti-intellectual" Bethel student is be-ginning
to realize the importance of what he is involved in.
It began with the Campus Pastor's message concerning
doubts, and the somewhat explosive discussions that ensued.
Doubting, he said, is not sinful, therefore Christians should
not be afraid to express their doubts and face them. Only
by wrapping them in the arms of faith will they be overcome.
The college community has begun to respond to this
challenge. Honest questiohs are being asked. Answers are
being found. And this is encouraging.
For many students, previous convictions were probably
formed as the result of social processes—following the herd
instinct. Tradition and convention bear heavily on us in de-termining
to a great extent what we believe. However, even
though this may lead us into the mainstream of the Christian
current, none can escape the responsibility of setting his
own course.
To take the "Old Time Religion" philosophy—"If it's good
enough for mother, father, Peter, Paul, Uncle Charlie, etc.,
it's good enough for me"—is not enough. Our place in the
Christian framework must be a matter of personal involve-ment
which may be an experience of conflict.
This is where our honest questions enter in. When they
appear, and no one can deny that they have not, conflict
also arises. How this conflict is handled is of ultimate im-portance
to establishing the truth in Christianity.
The easest way out of the dilemma is the ostrich tech-nique—
burying ones head in the sand as danger approaches.
The ostrich hides the danger, then calmly says there is no
danger; and if it feels perfectly sure there is none, why should
it raise its head to see?
Many Bethel students have taken this route. Rather than
face their questions openly, they "bury their heads" either
in an attempt to scoff them out of existence, or to lay them
aside by getting so "busy" in Christian service they have no
time to answer the questions squarely.
Such an attempt, however, is possible only to an in-tellectual
and spiritual recluse, and to be consistently main-tained
must be kept far from earthly realities.
The Christian religion to be sure affords ineffable com-fort.
But it doesn't begin with comfort. It begins in dismay
and conflict, and to attempt to gain the comfort without
passing through the conflict is futile.
A small, but significant number of Bethel students have
begun to realize the importance of facing the conflict. They
are honestly desiring truth. It is important to them.
According to C. S. Lewis, "If you look for truth, you may
find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not
get either comfort or truth—only soft soap and wishful think-ing
to begin with and, in the end, despair."
College Education Includes
More Than Study, Degree
Bob Beckstrom was Senate president in 1964-1965. The follow-ing
reprinted article is his definition of the function of the Senate.
It is worth reviewing in light of current Senate debate.
by Bob Beckstrom
Why does a person go to college? Such a question seems
needless, since the answer is obviously simple—to get a
college education. But what constitutes a college education,
and how is it acquired? It is with this second question that stu-dent
government is directly involved.
If the answer to the second question is merely attending
college X number of years, enduring Y number of courses and
gulping down Z amount of information, then "college educa-tion"
has come to be equated with "college degree."
However, at Bethel it is assumed "that a college experi-ence
should bring a student to know himself, to appreciate
his intellectual and cultural heritage, to understand the
world and society in which he lives, to exercise critical judg-ment,
to be intellectually alert and to work effectively with
other people." (Bethel catalogue)
How, then, are these characteristics of a college education
to be acquired? Unfortunately there are some who believe
that a college education is obtained only in the classroom.
They fail to see how crowding in a dormitory, knocking
heads on the intramural football field, interacting with a
visiting lecturer, taking in a Baroque string ensemble, typing
copy for the CLARION or befriending an international student
at the University can contribute as much to their education
and growth as staying up all night to review Crime and Punish-ment
for freshman composition.
Working under the assumption that such student ac-tivity
outside the classroom is vital to the educative process,
Bethel's student senate stands as the only elected representa-tive
body on campus uniquely responsible for student welfare.
Through two major processes, the executive and the legisla-tive,
the Senate affects each individual student and, ulti-mately
the entire college program.
It meets their needs by executing a program of co-cur-ricular
activities through its student life council, religious and
social development, as well as providing opportunities for plan-ning
and programming.
Senate also meets student needs by proposing appropri-ate
solutions to particular problems through its legislative
machinery. The legislative work of the senate is done in two
ways: committee and business meeting.
struggle of every man. Before one
can ask how the battle goes in
Vietnam or how the program goes
in Congress he must find out
"where he stands in the conflict
that is taking place in his own
heart," he continued.
"Until the majority of men can
swing the balance of their sep-arate
internal personal battles to
the side of the ultimate values of
the great spiritual truths contain-ed
in the Gospel of Christ, there
can never be any hope for a time
when all conflicts will be waked
to show who can do the most for
human progress rather than for
power and domination over man-kind,"
he said.
Letter to the Editor:
Athletic Policy Criticized
attend physical education classes
though actively participating in a
varsity sport.
Physical Education endeavors to
balance systematic exercise with
various types of recreation to pro-mote
health and physical fitness
of the individual. In addition, it
provides opportunity for the indi-vidual
to internalize acceptable be-havior
patterns, subsequently, con-tributing
to adequate adjustment
with others.
The varsity athlete accomplishes
this purpose in his training. He
devotes considerably more time in
physical and emotional preparation
for competition than most people
realize. Further, this readiness is
accomplished under demanding
academic pressures.
Perhaps, a few statistics will
clarify the dilemma of the athlete.
The approximated number of hours
per semester an individual spends
in a physical education course is
36. In four semesters the individ-ual
spends a totals of 144 hours in
class. I have approximated the
hours spent in practice for one
football player in one season to
be 120 hours.
This approximation excludes
game time, travel time for away
games and the ten day summer
football camp which itself requires
40 hours of practice. With some
variation, this approximation is
also applicable to other varsity
sports.
Therefore, the athlete should be
compensated by having participa-tion
in a varsity sport satisfy the
physical education requirement. He
should not be harassed by a policy
that is unfair. Hopefully this pro-cess
of regression will be reversed
to progressive policies appropriate
and beneficial for all concerned.

If it's funny in New Haven, will
it be funny in Berkeley, Evanston,

college-type humor exist?
Or, is college fun?

Aid Available
A scholarship fund for needy
college students from the St. Paul
area has been established in ac-cordance
with the will of Anna M.

$600,000 for this purpose.
Recipients of the scholarship
awards will be selected on the
basis of character, integrity, finan-cial
need, and scholastic ability, in
that order. Their full costs at any
Twin Cities college will be paid
for by the fund. Benefits are re-newable
each year as long as satis-factory
progress is made educa-tionally.
Application forms will be avail-able
soon at Bethel, although none
are available to date. Students
may, however, apply now for this
aid by writing to Mr. John O'Con-ner
of the Trust Department,
Northwestern National Bank of St.

estate.
They should detail the extent
of their need and other educa-tional
plans.

involvement. This leads to
a student government that does
not function of the student body
but for and of itself, i.e. an or-ganization
that not only initiates
an idea for a course of action
but also carries through with it.
This proposal was designed to
allow for total student involvement
since very few campus activities
will take place lest they originate

It is hoped that students will

So your Christian has chosen to go to a Christian school. Now
don't panic — in fact this might even be your chance to redeem your
demonic reputation.
The first step to take is to get him too busy for God. Try to keep
him so busy with social activities, studies, and spectator meetings such
as club meetings, church and chapel that he won't possibly have time
for personal Bible study or private prayer.
If this doesn't work LET him get on a high spiritual plateau.
Then slowly begin to bring him down to earthiness by encouraging
him to get so ultra-spiritual that all the other Christians will look like
hypocrites.
Help him to feel that the whole school is so hypocritical and
messed up that nothing can be done. If you have really been effective,
he will spend the rest of the year sitting in the coffee shop criticizing
everyone and everything.
But if, in spite of your efforts, he still persists in his ideals, you
might try channeling him into campus-directed evangelism. Use that
age-old proven technique of pushing the Christian to the extreme.
Encourage him to talk, think and do nothing but evangelize until he
gets frustrated with himself and with the campus.
Make him highly conscious that he must be a lily-white example.
When he tires of this strenuous occupation, (he soon will) be sure
to direct him to a group that is bitter or cynical about everybody
else on campus. It will help even more if you can direct him to a
group that thinks of sin as amusing, entertaining and laughable.
Keep disillusioning them, for the more converts you can get to
sin, the more crowd conscious teenagers will doubt the right to
participate in our gleeful concoctions.
Perhaps this time even you don't need to be worried about failure,
as long as you can keep your Christian so busy with self-introspection
and either over-activity or despondent criticism.
Just keep him too concerned with himself to see others and too
blind with living to enjoy life.
With fondest affection,
Uncle

Friday, February 18, the Bethel
College orchestra, under the direc-tion
of Mr. Julius Whitinger, will
join forces with the 3-M Company
orchestra to present a concert free
to the public in the college field-house.
This marks the second annual
joint appearance of the two or-chestras.
The concert will feature
two guest soloists: pianist Mrs.
Lynne McGettrick, and violinist
Sumiko Hama. Dr. Paul M. Oberg
will be presented as guest con-ductor.
Mrs. Lynne McGettrick is In-structor
in Piano at Bethel Col-lege.
She holds a B. Mus. from
the University of Alberta as well
as a M. Mus. from Eastman
School of Music where she has
done further graduate work.
She will perform the First Move-ment
of Schumann's "Piano Con-certo
in A Minor, Opus 54."
Sumiko llama is a nineteen-year-old
violinist from Tokyo, Japan.
This marks Miss Sumiko's Amer-ican
debut as solo violinist. She
will perform the First Movement
of the "Tschaikowsky Violin Con-certo
in D Major, Opus 55."
Since the age of ten Miss
Sumiko has been a regular mem-ber

1966 include a smorgasbord sched-uled
for Monday evening, February
21. The meal will be served both
in Bodien Dining Hall and the
fieldhouse from '5:00 to 6:30 p.m.
Four serving lines will be located
in the fieldhouse and two in the
dining hall.
Slated to speak following the
smorgasbord is Dr. Ralph Powell,
professor at North American Bap-tist
Seminary in Sioux Falls, South
Dakota. Also part of the program
will be special recognition of Miss
Effie Nelson, German professor,
and boiler engineer Eric Borgeson,
who have served on the staff 41
and 24 years respectively.
Entertainment will be provided
by campus musical groups, who
will be performing in the field-house
during the smorgasbord
hours.
Students may eat at Bodien Din-ing
Hall or join friends and rela-tives
for the meal at the field-house.

Bethelites not on the meal plan
may also attend the Smorgasbord
by purchasing a ticket at the Pub-lic
Relations Office for the regular
price of $2.50. This is necessary so
that the Food Service will have an
accurate count of how many per-sons
are to be served.
On the smorgasbord menu are
Swedish meatballs, spare ribs, ham
slices, potato sausage, pickled her-ring,
fruit soup, and a variety of
salads, breads, relishes, vegetables,
desserts, and beverages.
Vespers Begin
Next Sunday, February 20,
the first Vespers service will
be held at 8 o'clock p.m. in
the old Seminary Chapel (107

not be formal, dress, or semi-dress;
nor is the service a
picnic.
Students are urged to come

Having everything to gain in
their one big game of the year,
the Bethel "Colts" tallied a goal
half-way through the third period
to beat St. Olaf College 4 to 3 at
St. Paul's Aldrich Arena.
Despite the weather, a good
turn-out of Bethelites cheered their
boys on to victory. At roughly
9:30 in the first period Craig
Kronholm slapped the puck into
the net to push Bethel ahead 1-0.
St. Olaf tallied immediately
at 15:20 which evened out the
score 1-1. Again Kronholm scor-ed,
assisted by Ken Rutz, fresh-man
defenseman, putting Bethel
ahead 2-1.
After a five minute between
period rest, St. Olaf came to life
and evened the score 2-2 in the
second period. The "Flying Can-ucks"

their form for Bethel with a goal

Tournament of the season was held
at Macalester College.
After three rounds of debate and
a tasty banquet, the awards for the

nevertheless, the new Bethel Iden-tification
card will mean greater
efficiency in the future for both
Bethel students and the admini-stration.
"Periodic agitation from stu-dents
for a workable identifica-tion,"
explains Dean Muck, trig-gered
a study into the possibilities
of such a convenience.
After reviewing a number of
other ID cards, the small com-mittee
decided that a most ser-viceable
card would carry only
the most essential information
about its bearer—name, photo-graph,
P.O. number, and regis-tration
number.
Further information such as ad-dress,
hair color (?) might change
frequently necessitating a revision
of the card. Space is neither pro-vided
for a signature since the
photograph is adequate enough
verification.
Dean Muck points out however,
that the card may still need to be
perfected. To guide possible chang-es,
he is interested in hearing stu-dent
evaluations.
The new identification will be
necessary for transactions in five
areas on the campus: the Busi-ness
office, the Registrar's of-fice,
the physical education de-partment
(for checking out
equipment), and in both librar-ies.

Yes, after some four odd years, hockey at Bethel College has once
again struggled to the limelight. After only one game the team comes
out with a perfect 1 and 0 record by beating St. Olaf College in a Sno-
Daze tilt.
As some of you well remember, in the school year of '61-'62 Bethel
impressed a few surrounding schools and colleges by beating them with
such players as Todd, Friesen, and Bloom. Then lying dormant for four
years, the hockey seasons passed by with fans and players cheering the
basketball team on to Pioneer Conference Championships.
But a few Canadians on campus this season felt the nip of winter
air and started dreaming of a hockey team here at Bethel. Potential
personnel-wise was good, and desire turned daydreams into action.
The Athletic Department, when contacted for assistance, stated
the budget did not allow for support of a hockey team. But they offered
the use of some football jerseys for the boys to wear for a game.
Practices started in late December after each player had bought
or -borrowed" sufficient equipment and practice ice was donated by
Ramsey High School. After several practices and numerous refusals by
other schools and colleges came an opportunity for a game.
St. Olaf College accepted the challenge for a Sno-Daze game. Not
only did they accept to play Bethel, but they even re-scheduled a
game in order to accomodate us. Our sincere thanks to Coach Porter
from St. Olaf.
Having now the threat of a game in the near future, practices
began in earnest. Problems of financing Aldrich Arena were resolved,
Socks and sweaters were "donated" by Fairview Jr. High for the game,
and all was set.
Alas, however, Mother Nature sent "showers of blessing" and the
last practices scheduled were an impossibility. Determined to overcome
this final obstacle, the players rented Aldrich Arena last Thursday at
midnight for a final practice. Money was to come from players' pockets
as it did in all previous cases.
However, the Athletic Council of Student Senate saw the plight
and paid the total rental for the evening. The team extends thanks
to Jim Hammar and his committee for the wise choice of spending
these funds. The practice paid off in the end with a 4-3 win over
St. Olaf on Saturday.
The future of hockey at Bethel is now at stake. If you the reader
feel that this is an important sport please let the players, faculty, and
the editor of this paper know.
The plea for support goes out to all readers of this paper. Will
hockey live or die at Bethel College? Help it come alive through your
support.
