Dean Assumes Role of
Senator in "Soldier's Vote"
Senator Emery A. Johnson
attended a special session of
the State Legislature March 8-
11. It was one of the shortest
special sessions in the history
of the state, lasting only four
days.
The one purpose of this spec-ial
session was to pass legisla-ture
which would help the boys
in service to vote. This was ac-complished
in two ways: first,
the date for the primary elec-tion
which is usually in Sep-tember,
was pushed ahead to
July 10, so that ballots could
more easily be sent overseas
and returned before Election
Day, November 8; and second,
it set up machinery which would
make it possible for the boys
to obtain ballots either at their
own request, or by that of a re-lative—
wife, mother, father,
brother or sister.
On the first day of the ses-sion,
the Senate passed a re-

Northern Baptist Seminary of Chicago was host to Bethel Seminary,
Central Seminary from Kansas City, Louisville Seminary, Louisville,
Kentucky, and the Chicago Divinity School during the week of March
12-19
Twenty students from the Seminary attended and most of them
had an opportunity to speak in four Chicago Baptist churches on either
Sunday, March 12 or 19.
Among the speakers were: Joseph C. Robbins, president of the
Northern Baptist Convention; Jesse R.. Wilson, home secretary of the
American Baptist Foreign Missionary Society; and Dr. Charles Koller.
Others were Missionary John Selander, M. Forest Ashbrook, Earl F.
Adams, Luther Wesley Smith, who introduced the speakers, and several
more who spoke at various sessions.
Dr. Robbins at the opening session spoke on the topic, "The Christ-ian
Gospel in a World Setting."

Most of the students were im-pressed

by such statements as these:

Jack Borgeson—"More than
ever do we appreciate the magni-tude
of the problems we face as
a denomination, and we have learn-ed
to swmpathize with our leaders
in the difficulties they face."
Francis Otto—"I was impressed
by the great possibilities made
through the mission, publication,
and youth organizations that would
be impossible without them. How-ever,
as to the positions and tend-encies
of some of the leaders, the
Seminary succeeded only in lead-ing
me to questions and bewilder-ment."

In every corner of the world where war is raging, in every training
camp, in military hospitals, even in prison camps, the Red Cross acts
as a link between our servicemen and home. Medical care, a word of
comfort or advice, perhaps an American meal—these are a few of the
many things our contributions carry to the far corners of the world.
Do you know that in one day your Red Cross at Washington re-ceives
about 142,000 messages from persons in enemy and occupied
countries for friends and relatives here?
Approximately $90,000,000 worth of foreign war relief aid has been
sent overseas by and through the American Red Cross.
Every eight seconds last year, Red Cross Camps and hospital work-ers
aided a U. S. Serviceman in the United States or in 53 countries and
islands over-seas in some personal or family problem.
Your Red Cross in 178 disasters in twelve months aided enough
men, women, and children to fill 24 towns, each having a population of
5,000.
Families of servicemen discharged for disability may obtain from
the Red Cross financial assistance needed during the temporary period
while claims for pensions are pending.
Obtaining blood plasma which is saving many lives is another of
the many important duties performed.
It is your Red Cross. Each year of the war increases the need for
service.
This a brief account of the activities of the Red Cross, the agency
for which Bethel devoted a chapel program on Tuesday, March 14 and
for which you of the student body contributed so generously—$84.59 in
ALL, TOPPING THE AMOUNT OF $39.00 DONATED LAST YEAR.
Bethel is beginning to raise her eyes beyond the streets of Snelling
and Arlington, and is looking throughout America and the world to see
teh suffering that her human brothers are undergoing. Of course $84.59
may seem like a small sum, let us try to make it $100.00 by the end of
this week when the drive closes, but is is significent; it is a trend in the
right direction for our college.

THE BETHEL CLARION
Normally, all men want to live.
But in order to attain even a fair
measure of life men have learned
that they must give up those
things which hasten them on to-wards,
death. "Eat right," "sleep
at least eight hours a night," "vis-it
your doctor not less than once
a year for a check-up," "slow
down." These are some of the ad-monitions
given us from time to
time, for us to heed—if we want
to live. We must avoid those
things' that are not in harmony
with our essential nature. Yet,
with all his care man has not
come far: he still must die!
But there is one exception to the
effect of death, and that is for the
one who has received life in and
through Jesus Christ. "He that
believeth in me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live." This is
a paradox expressing the greatest
of all truths: life comes from
death!
The message of Easter is there-fore
a message of immortal hope,
a hope beyond the grave. It is an
assurance of an undying personal-ity.
Jesus Christ came back (an
historical certainty) the same per-

SEMINARY MEDITATION
XbeCazter arben
By Merle Bergfalk
Mark 16:2—"And very early in
the morning the first day of the
week; they came unto the sepul-chre
at the rising of the sun."
Come with me, if you will, to a
beautiful garden, hushed by the
stillness of the morning hours,
and hallowed by still another
event. In the midst of it walk two
whose hearts are heavy. Their
heads are bowed in grief as they
walk toward the tomb where their
Lord had been taken after he was
crucified. He, their Lord, had been
crucified! The beauties of God's
nature, so poignant at this early
hour, were to them a mockery as
they thought of what had so re-cently
taken place.
Matt. 28:5—"And the Angel
answered and said unto the wo-man,
fear not ye: for I know that
ye seek Jesus, which was cruci-fied."
They looked up startled to hear
the voice of this one, a Heavenly
visitor. Their hearts, 'heavy and
lonely were lightened as they
heard him say—"Fear not ye; for
I know that ye seek Jesus which
was crucified." The mention of
this beloved and familiar name
brought new hope and comfort to
their hearts.
Matt. 28:6—"He is not here, for
He is risen as He said."
Could they believe their ears?
This Angel said that their Lord
was risen! Why only last night
they had seen them put His dead
body in the tomb. They had seal-ed
the door with Him inside. Sure-ly
there must be some mistake.
Matt. 28:6b—"Come, see the
place where the Lord lay."
As if anticipating their doubts
he quickly went on telling them to
see for themselves. Stepping
aside, he pointed to the open door
leading to an empty tomb.
Matt. 28:8—"And they departed
quickly from the sepulchre with
fear and great joy; and did run to
bring His disciples word."
This was proof enough. Truly
their Lord was alive! So sure were
they that the Word says they "de-parted
quickly . and did run."
Matt. 28:9—"And as they went
to His disciples, behold, Jesus met
them, saying—All hail and they
came and held Him by the feet
and worshipped him."
Joy, unspeakable! Jesus met them
Not only had they heard but they
saw. Their full hearts could do no
less than fall down and worship
Him.
Let us go back once again this
Easter to that first Easter morn-ing.
Forgetting the horrors of the
war and the uneasiness all about
us, let us put ourselves in the
place of these women and once
again see our risen Christ. As we
enter in through the gate to this
garden, our hearts will once again
feel the glow of the first time that
we realized that our Savior lived.
Easter will have more meaning and
the rest of the year will be richer
because of it.

Well, the Seminary middlemen
and seniors really had a great
time in Chicago—from what I
hear.
Bob* Peterson who knows Chi-cago
so well, directed a group of
the follows thirteen blocks past
their destination.
Five fellows, M r. Otto Thomp-son„
Sleiter, Knobby, and Mel
Swanson, had a bedroom suite to-gether
in one of the hotels. Quite
a discussion was started by "Drip"
and "Gordie" as to who were go-ing
to occupy the good beds. After
"pulling sticks" these two spent
the night on cots.
I hear Sleiter tried to help out
the Northern Baptist Convention
by making his own bed in the
hotel room—or else he was trying
to make it easier for the chamber-maid.
Everyone is wondering where
Dale kept himself during the even-ing
sessions of the Seminar.
One night Gene Johnson told
the hotel clerk to ring their room
at 6 and 6:30 A. M. the next morn-ing.
In hotels they usually ring
when you want them to and also
fifteen minutes later to make sure
that you did get up. Well, because
they were instructed for 6 and
6:30, the phone was ringing every
15 minutes until 6:45. Poor Tanyas
was kept busy. You see, he slept
nearest the phone. He couldn't
understand what kind of a hotel
he was in. As soon as he got
back to bed and asleep, the phone
would start in ringing again.
The way to a man's heart is
through his stomach. I don't know
what Eunice is feeding Maurice,
but she and Alice are doing a good
job of preparing the meals on
Thursday nights when Mrs. Olson
takes a rest. Of course , they
should remember that it's best,
when cooking potatoes, to have a
fire under the kettle.

be so wrapped in one's thoughts.
Well, I guess it could happen to
anyone of us.
(Editor's note: Yes, Harold,
we're pretty sure it could happen
to anyone. Especially since you

The past week was quite a drain
on Seminary inhabitants. The
Chicago Seminar took all of the
seniors and middlemen. This, of
course, included the dorm "ma,"
Dale Bjork; postman, Gunnar Hog-lund,
and custodian Joel Anderson
and called for the assuming of
responsibility by the under class-men.
Dana Larson was both dorm
"ma" and postman while Harris
Youngquist swept the floor.
On Monday afternoon a number
of State pastors comprising the
Sunday School Commission of the
Minnesota State Conference, call-
Fern Snatches
Anyone living in the Bethel
Girls' Dormitory will agree that
here is where the "ferns" fun for
all is. Would you like to know
what's what? Well, here's a bit
of the "goings on."—
One evening last week proved to
be especially nice for Rose Chall-berg.
Why? Well, after seeing
that handsome soldier sitting be-side
her at the dinner table, who
wouldn't have a "starlight" of an
evening?
Rosie may go for the khaki, but
her roommate, Phyllis Nelson has
another angle. Last Saturday this
Miss was ambitiously seen pur-chasing
her Easter outfit, and, all
in NAVY too. "It was GOBS of
fun," says Phil.
Talk about early birds. The
Dorm sure had them last week.
Must be because of the arrival of
Spring. Monday morning found
Lois Raymetz ringing the bells for
all she was worth—at 5:30! Joyce
Gilbert, Phyllis Johnson, and Lor-ene
Janssen proved to be guilty
victims of this "mishap," for after
having gotten dressed, they made
ing themselves the prophets, came
here for their meeting and then
stayed ovenright. This was a real
invasion and there were no empty
beds that night. The overflow
slept in a room on the third floor
of the college. Tuesday again was
a rather deserted day as was the
remainder of the days of the week.
Among the irregular absences
were Paul Nagano and Wesley
Lindblom because of illness. They
are back now as well as Don Gan-strom
who has been out in Emery,
South Dakota holding a two weeks'
series of meetings.
By Mabel Anderson
the startling discovery that Mr.
Clock said 5:30. That sure was an
alarming situation!
"If Lois can get up early on Mon-day,
there is no reason why she
can't on Tuesday" said Arleth
Brask, Merle Bergfalk, and Adel-ine
Sivertson. And so, Tuesday
morning found Lois wide awake at
5:30—you would be, too, if you
were thrown in a tub of ice cold
water!
Say, Dana Larson, you certainly
seem to be right at home in the
Girls' Dorm! You're the first one
we didn't have to sing "Stand up,
stand up," to after the famous
Hearty Welcome Song.
Girls—do you want your hair to
really shine? Here's just the one
you want to see—Miss Luella En-ander.
Say Lu, "I just love to
brush hair." And, the amazing
thing is that she'll give you sev-eral
treatments too, for Lu just
wouldn't give anyone the brush
off.
Redskins
Begin Baseball
"Where is that ol' glove of
mine?" "Guess I'll send home for
my first-baseman's mitt!" Those
are the comments heard around
school the, last few days as Coach
Hokanson has asked the baseball
prospects to, "Come down to the
gym,' and start loosening up that
`wing'!"
The outlook for the season looks
bright because of many returning
letter men and some new men who
are going to fill in the needed posi-tions.
Bill Peterson was down the
other day showing his "out" curve
to "Shorty" Anderson and "Shor-ty's"
eyes were really popping.
Bill is saying, "Just wait till I get
a little sunshine on that arm and
really get it warmed up!"
New promising players for the
Red-skins will be Conwell Ander-son,
a good long first baseman,
and Paul Nagano, an all-around
utility man. Rog Youngquist
thinks he'll be out and work off
a few of those extra pounds, too.
Rog has done a good bit of catch-ing!
Back from last year will be
Wessman, Sahlin, Roland Gustaf-son,
"Shorty" Anderson, Wes Lind-blom,
Harris Youngquist, Carlton
Christianson, and "Knop" Eric-son!
Anyone else interested, see the

74 Spidiff Viet a I Bspo4/4
out for practise because of work
made it difficult.
The year was perhaps highlight-ed
by the sensational comeback
against a tall River Falls Teach-ers'
outfit—outscoring them in the
second half. Bethel was defeated
but Wessman, Hails, and the rest
of the boys put up a good fight to
the finish.
Wessman's shooting, Hails' fine
all around play, Christenson's im-provement,
Otto's three points a
game, Bergerud's and Johnson's
defensive play, Thompson's fight,
Lundh's center play, Sahlin's
speed and Trude's and Peterson's
willingness were all part of an in-teresting
season.
Hat's off to Coaches Gronseth
and Hokanson, to the team, to the
manager, Elwood Anderson, and to
the faithful followers!
Wielding the Paddle
A thrilling ping pong tourne-ment
has been going on in the
Seminary gymnasium this last
week. Thirty-two ping pong play-ers
have been trying to claim the
champion's crown. As yet, it looks
like a toss-up because of so many
players of equal ability.
Those paired for the second
round, are:
Stamford Widen versus Walfred
Peterson
Harris Youngquist versus Arnold
Gustafson
Gene Johnson versus Bob Berge-rud
Bob Norstrom versus Stan Yam-ashita
Bill Peterson versus Howard Olson
Wesley Lindblom versus (To be
played)
Wilbur Erickson versus (To be
played)
Cecil Lindblom versus (To be
played)
Mabel Anderson, player in the
first round, was the only girl en-try,
and is, by the way, the cham-pion
of the Chicago Y. P. Summer
Assembly of 1943.

Although the game is very in-teresting
and amusing, one does
not receive the exercise as one
would in hand-ball or boxing. But
for the energetic theological stud-ents,
it proves to be a very good
relaxation.
