They have finally gotten around
to using helicopters for suburban
service in Boston. They operate
every ten minutes from the roof
of a downtown building out to the
outskirts of the city. Just think,
no more street-cars, subways or
busses to contend with. If we had
some enterprising students at
Bethel they would start a helicop-ter
service between here and
"Monkey Wards."

Students come to schools to
learn many occupations and now
even fishermen can go to school
to learn to fish. Chile recently es-tablished
a fishing school to im-prove
methods of its commercial

get a B. F. degree, Bachelor of
Fishes.

The Moscow conference is over,
Many varying reports have come
out but there seems at least a feel-ing
of a closer understanding be-tween
the Big Four even though
agreement wasn't found on the
German and Austrian treaties. An-other

The author of FM 21-100 and

yesterday as ex-servicemen took
over Bethel in the school's first
GI day.
The haunting strains of Reveille
floated over the bleak campus at
0600 and all hands turned out.
First formation was at 0700, with
ragged files standing at a rusty
attention. Then chowhounds were
lined up to do their duty.
Headquarters for the day was
the Clarion office, requistioned by
Commandants Christenson a n d
Starr. All three swivel chairs took
a beating as GI's loitered in the
room, disregarding signs as usual.
Barracks were inspected by the
officer of the day after 0800, the
inevitable non-com writing down
offenders' names. Throughout the
day inspecting parties checked
classes, and MP's and SP's hunted

Friday morning, April 25 to begin
their annual concert tour. Trans-portation
was provided by the

oil line and had to be repaired
three times while Bethel's old bus
had only one flat tire and ran out
of gasoline once.

sentenced to the PX, where they
were confined until they paid a
fine in trade.
Uniforms were announced as sun-tans

Medals and glory bars varied
with the individual, from the non-existant
to the ridiculous.
Discipline in general was sloppy.
Privates were observed to greet
the post commandants by their
nicknames and officers got scant
respect from enlisted men, who
seemed to be enjoying the show.
A serious side of the event was
revealed in the chapel service at
0950, of which the GI's had charge.

the other events of the day.
During the afternoon softball
games were scheduled on the cam-pus
field between the army and
the navy teams. The two teams
fought hard and long to uphold the
merits of their respective branch
of service while a group of inter-ested
spectators cheered.
All men were mustered for chow
at 1700 and stood at rigid atten-tion
until the bugler blew retreat.
This procedure was carried out in
strict military fashion.
The evening meal at 1730 was
preceded by the usual long army

over the meal.
Taps were sounded at 2200 and

The main social event of Bethel's
school year will take place next
Friday night when the Freshman
class will play host to the gradu-ates.
The ballroom of the Lowry Ho-tel,
Fourth and Wabasha, St. Paul,
has been chosen as the scene of
this semi-formal function. The
banquet will begin at 7:00 o'clock
and it is planned that the pro-gram
will end at about 9:30. Cur-few
at the dormitories will be one
o'clock.
Speaker of the evening is Miss
Ruth Eckert of the Education
Department, University of Minne-sota.
She will speak on, "Today's
Challenge to the Christian College
Student."
The program will also include
vocal Solos by Marilyn Wallberg
and violin solos by Carol Land-berg.
Tentative menu for the banquet
features roast turkey with suitable
trimmings.
It has been suggested that those
car owners not attending the ban-quets
provide a taxi service from

UN Conference
Four delegates went from Bethel
to a model United Nations Assem-bly
meeting last Friday and Satur-day
at the Minnesota State Capi-tol.
They are Ted Avey, who sat
as a member of the Indian dele-gation
and on the Commission on
Human Rights; • Earl Hoagberg,
who represented Australia in UN-ESCO;
Charles Germany, a dele-gate
from Syria and representative
on the Security Council; Alastair
Brown, who represented China on
the Atomic Energy Committee.
The meet was sponsored by the
University of Minnesota Speech
Department and included represen-tatives
from neighboring high
schools and colleges. Meetings of
the various commissions as well as
of the complete general assembly
were scheduled.
Hoagberg was elected chairman
of the UNESCO Committee, Avey
served as chairman of the Human
Rights Commission, and Germany
was elected chairman of the Se-curity

Joy and Hope
Are Keynotes
Of the Season
The dominant note of this resur-rection
season is Joyful Hope —
Hope founded on present knowl
edge and past victories. The bur-den
of winter is cast off:
"Every clod feels a burst of life,
An instinct within it that reach-es
and towers."
The skies are clearing—it is a
new revelation of nature's God,
and we children of the earth thrill
with Joy at His manifestation.
Through the eyes of a Creator who
makes all-things beautiful we are
again able to see things in their
correct perspective. It is the time
when we rededicate ourselves to
the Spirit of Life within—that we
invite Him to inhabit every corner
of our personality and forgive our
past coldness. For our Holy Friend
desires that we bloom with the
fruit of Spring.
Negatively—it is not the time to
criticize and burden one another;
not to depress but inspire. "The
Joy of the Lord shall be thy
strength." Not the Laws. Our mes-sage
is now one of hope, that dares
look into the face of God with
child-like love and defies atom-bombs,
world-wars or our own sin-fulness
to hold back Eternal
SPRING.

Have you given all your talents
To be ordered by your Lord?
If your talents are not many,
Do you spread His Holy Word?
There is lots of room for service
Without going to foreign lands;
You need but a love for Jesus,
And a pair of working hands.

Clarion Letter
This is another in the series of
articles written especially for the
Clarion by great Christians.
Only a sinner, saved by grace.
Everything else fades away
when I think of • what Jesus Christ
means to me. Those of you who
have accepted Christ as your per-sonal
Saviour know what I'm talk-ing
about. Many people have plac•
ed great value on the trophies
which God has permitted me to
win on the track, but those awards
dim into nothingness when the
power of Jesus Christ and what
He did in my life comes to my
mind.
I was 13 when I was saved. For
many months I had been very
miserable. I wanted to be a run-ner,
even though down there in
Falls City, Neb., where my father
was then the preacher in the First
Brethren church, we had no high
school track team of any kind, no
coach, etc. But some well-meaning
friends had told me that I couldn't

emanating from the lounge. With
visions of some jilted freshman

By President Wingblade
Dean Frank Sanders of Yale,
who was also my college president,
used to say that when God was
looking for a man to be an expon-ent
of faith in the world of men,
He beheld one with his eyes set
toward the stars.
God liked that kind of man and
drew nigh unto him. Then he said
something like this : "I see you
are looking toward the stars of
the heavens. Try to count them."
Abraham tried, and grew dizzy
in the attempt. Then God spoke
again: "As abundant as the stars
of the sky—so abundant shall be
my blessings upon you — if you
keep that upward look."
My home state Kansas had as
a state motto the words: "Ad
Astra Per Aspera." "To the Stars

The apartment has organized in-to
a official group, formed at a
meeting in the laundry room on
the evening of April 23rd. They
are attempting to obtain authority
to have a representative on the
student council for the forthcom-ing
school year. An invitation ex-tended
to the school board for the
purpose of discussion on various
problems confronting the residents
was declined on the grounds that
nothing could be gained by such a
meeting until the group has offi-cial
recognition.
Lack of the right kind of equip-ment
terminated the Bethel track
season. It was with great reluc-tance
that this was decided at a
recent meeting of the track team.
The team that sprang from noth-ing
this spring had good material
combined with good team spirit.
Several items figured in on the
lack of equipment. This is Bethel's
first year at track and the inex-perience
of obtaining track gear
played toward the termination of
the team. In another year every-thing
should go much more
smoothly. In some of the events,
such as hurdles, the first time that
the squad would be able to run
them would be in their first meet.
Hurdles are one of the events that
takes much time in obtaining a
time and pace.
We hope that this is not an end
to track but just a delay for an
excellent cinder squad next spring.

And the other in a star,
Our wonderful God views the

And they seem not very far.

For the wounds that sting and

Our God is at home with the roll-ing

And at home with the broken

Just a short time ago, the stu-dent
body and faculty staged a
program in the auditorium and
were given an entire period in
which to put it on. Some of our
best speakers and most outstand-ing
campus leaders were on hand
to give their views and proposals
toward faising junds for a new
toward raising funds for a new
athletic stadium for Bethel.
The student body was informed
beforehand as to the purpose of
the meeting, but, when the meeting
got under way, there was only a
small audience.
It is - evident that this lack of
interest tells us only one thing;
the student body, as individuals,
are not deeply concerned about the
growth of our school. They like
to see new buildings spring up all
over the campus, but they don't
care enough to participate in the
purchase of one. They like to see
a good basketball team represent-ing
us, but they can't realize what
their few dollars will do along
with those of five hundred other
students, toward providing an ade-quate
gym. They were glad to see
a track team work hard toward
shaping up a good squad, but they
couldn't see where writing a couple
of letters home to some friend of
the school would make possible a
team large enough to compete with
other schools. They felt as though
something was missing last fall
when there was no football team
working out.
All these sports could be made
possible, along with many more, if
every one of us really cared about
the future of our school.
If you haven't already done so,
send those letters home. Don't go
throwing away those pledge cards,
as I have seen some do, send
them! Get behind this drive as
though you were going to be here
as a student for the next five
years. Plan and provide for the
physical welfare 9f your children.

Stadium, not No Athletic Stadium!

life has been different ever since.

what Christ has meant to me
since—simply, everything. I have-n't

Spire's Art Work Bethel's Budget
Due to B. Skalman '46-'47: $200,000 9friretaii, Ropoideit
And W. Palmquist
The big 1947 Spire will be the
largest that Bethel has ever pub-lished.
The task of editing the
art work is, therefore, the largest
Spire staff members have ever un-dertaken.
The editor in charge of
the art work in the publication is
Warren Palmquist, of St. Paul, who
was graduated from Johnson high
school in 1944 and was art editor
of the annual of that year, the
Maroon. Warren began drawing as
a hobby and took four years of
art work in high school. His train-ing
included making oil paintings,
portraits, etchings, and chalk work.
While in high school he received
a liberal arts award for his artis-tic
ability and efforts.
Warren attended Bethel the first
semester of 1944 and then entered
the army air corps as a cadet. His
present ambition is to become a
commercial artist and illustrate
for national magazines.
Byron Skalman, whose home is
in San Diego, took up photography
as a hobby when he was fourteen
and developed the hobby while in
high school. He took the position
of head of the photography de-partment
of the Rohr aircraft corp-oration
in 1941. This work involv-ed
photography for advertisements,
personnel training, army and navy
enlineering reports and included
the making of motion pictures.
In 1944 he enlisted in the navy
and did aerial and ground photog-raphy
as well as dark room pro-cedure.
Byron took pictures for the color
motion pictureThat They May See
and Know by Irwin Moon photo-graphed
by the Moody Institute of
Science.
If the Lord so leads, Byron will
go into the work of Christian illus-tration
which includes photographs
for Christian literature and motion
pictures of the work on the mis-sion
field.

Bob Gilquist; Secretary, Marilyn
Cross; Treasurer, Valeda Ken-ward.
During the last year, the Com-muters

speak. He has always been there—
whether I won or lost, whether I
spoke well or poorly. His Word
has become so much more real to
me and through definite and posi-tive
answers to prayer I know that
He has heard the petitions from
my own heart and from the hearts
of others in my behalf.
Living for Christ gives me my
greatest thrill. There is nothing
like it. My goal in life is to do my
best to win others to Christ. God
may want me in a foreign field,
here at home, in a coaching posi-tion
or in a church. What ever
His will for my life is—that is
where I want to be. Oh, that our
young people around the world
would go "all out" for Him who
said, "I am the Way, the Truth and
the Life.; no man cometh unto the
Father but by me."
Gil Dodds.

Artists Lead
In Chapel
Talent surrendered to the Lord
and used in Christian service was
fully represented in recent chapel
services. Visiting artists included
Mr. C. Steele, who, to the accom-paniment
of music by Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Skinner, presented effec-tive
chalk-talk pictures; the Dary-ell
Party, whose musical numbers
included selections on the vibra-harp
and on banjos; and Mr. and
Mrs. Macduff Copeland, who some
seven years ago left the stage to
serve a newly-found Christ with
their singing and pianoforte num-bers.
