Seminary Banquet Jim Rehnberg to Dr. Karlson Going
Hears Dr. Karlson Study In France To Sweden May 31
Making what was probably his
last public appearance as Dean,
Dr. Karl J. Karlson gave the ad-dress
to graduates at the Seminary
Banquet held at Lees, Highland
Village last week. In keeping with
the theme of the evening, Dr. Karl-son
stressed to those going out
into the ministry the importance of
"knowing Him and the Power of
His Resurrection."
After twenty-four years as
Dean of the Seminary, Dr.
Karlson is retiring at the end
of this quarter. As his succes-sor
the Board has recommend-ed
Prof. Edwin Omark. But
as was expressed at the ban-quet
Dr. Karlson, will "not be
far away and will be anticipat-ed
as a frequent friend and
visitor."
The successful banquet program
was in the charge of Wallace Norl-ing
(toastmaster). Devotions were
led by Leonard Carroll, while vocal
numbers were contributed by Mr.
and Mrs. William Phillips and the
Bethel male quartet, with Mrs.
Wallace Henk as accompanist.
Welcome to the seniors was ex-tended
by Ralph Larson and the
reply given by Delbert Kuehl.
Reading from an up-to-date copy of
The Standard, Arlene Peterson
gave news items suggestive of the
prospects for 1978.
The Middleman Class were res-ponsible
for the program details,
while the Freshman Class under-took
the decorations that were sug-gestive
of the graduates' task of
carrying the Gospel to Home, Alas-ka
and Foreign Missions.
One of the first students to make
use of the opportunity of study
in Europe this summer is James
Rehnberg. He will attend the Fon-tainebleau
School of Humanities,
located just a few miles from
Paris, France. Jim has been study-ing
advanced French this year and
expects to make use of this op-portunity
to gain a firmer grasp on
the language.
The trip is being sponsored
by the -Institute of Internat-ional
Education, an organizat-ion
designed to aid American
students in studying abroad.
The G.I. Bail will take care of
expenses and tutition.
Jim is sailing on June 17 on one
of several army transports being
used for this purpose. He expects
to be back by the beginning of
September. If possible, he plans to
attend the Youth for Christ con-vention
to be held in Switzerland
in August.
Everyone is going to the all-school
outing at Taylor Falls
except the burdened faculty
who will spend the day sweat-ing
over those "final" papers. If
you have a friend, not a CAM-PUS-
DR, bring her along. If it's
a HIM, bring him along too.
Busses will leave the campus
between 9 and 10 a.m. Thurs-day,
May 27th, returning to the
cities about 9 p.m.—Price $1.00.
Dean Karl J. Karlson, of the
Seminary, will be travelling to
Sweden this summer as the official
representative of the Baptist Gen-eral
conference of America at the
celebrations in Stockholm of the
centennial of Baptist work in
Sweden. He plans to sail from New
York on the 21st to arrive in
Stockholm in time for the special
meetings to be held there from the
8th to 14th of June.
Besides speaking at the official
sessions, Dr. Karlson expects to
complete a two-months preaching
intinery through Sweden. Among
invitations so far received are
those to preach in the First Bap-tist
Church of Stockholm on June
6th and at the Third Baptist
Church of that city on June 13th.
He will also give the Commence-ment
address to the graduates of
the Bethel Seminary in Stockholta
on June 7th. It was from this Sem-inary
that the Dean graduated in
1903.
Arriving in America, in 1904, Dr.
Karlson has re-visited his native
land once previously, and that for
the European Baptist Congress in
1913. On that occasion he trans-lated
for Dr. J. Rushbrooke, who
later became President of the
Baptist World Alliance.
Dr. Karlson expects to use the
opportunity to visit friends and
relatives and plans to remain in
Sweden for two months. His book-ing
for the return trip is to leave
Sweden on July 30th and to be
back home by August 10th. At
present he has no definite plans for
next year.
Library Unit of
New Centennial
Building Begun
Bethel's Centennial Building pro-gram
has begun with the start of
construction for the library unit
of the Centennial Building Pro-gram
a combined chapel-library-administration
building. The li-brary
is scheduled to be ready for
use next fall, and the entire pro-ject
is to be completed by the time
of the Centennial in 1952. This
will complete the near million
dollar building program in process
at Bethel during recent years.
Pictured at the left is an artist's
conception of the front of the
building facing Snelling Avenue.
Plans containing full details con-cerning
the structure have not
been drawn as yet, but the more
important features have beed de-cided.
The library wing will be a
two story building with the
main floor about six feet above
ground level. The lower floor
will be about three feet below
ground level. Separate college
and seminary reading rooms
will be on the main floor along
with, the librarian's office and
charging desk, and a commit-tee
room. There may also be
a soundproof music enjoyment
room. Lower floor facilities
contain the book stacks and a
number of faculty offices.
The major portion of the
main floor will be, a large read-ing
room with book shelves
around the walls. Book stacks
in the basement will be ac-cessible
by means of an elec-tric
dumbwaiter. A large maga-zine
rack will be installed to
facilitate use of the, many
magazines and pamphlets. The
seminary and college sections
of the room will be divided by
a small book shelf running the
length of the room.
The lower floor will have stacks
in. the center which will hold about
100,000 volumes: A corridor will
encircle the stack room. Opening
outward from this corridor will be
a number of faculty offices.
The library will open off the
lobby of the administration build-ing.
A temporary entrance will be
built on the south side of the
library pending completion of the
entire Centennial Building Pro-gram.
$83.28 for Europe Relief
The Religious Council reports a
receipt of $83.28 in its treasury as
a result of students foregoing their
morning and noon meals in the
dining hall during a day of prayer
and fasting on April 30.
The money will be proportion-.
ately sent to needy Christian fami-lies
in Europe.

Christian Literature
On Road to Recovery
Christian scholars, ministers and laymen
have deplored the appalling lack of Christian
doctrinal and inspirational literature in recent
years. The caliber of new books being pub-lished
was, for the most part, mediocre and
far below the standards set by scholarly men
of God of a century or more ago. However,
these monumental works had long been out
of print for one reason or another and Christ-ians.
despaired of ever obtaining these century-old
classics. There were copies of these works
in seminary and private libraries but to satisfy
the demand for these books, new editions
would be necessary.
When the Moody Press -announced the pub-lication
of a series of Christian classics, there-fore,
the response from evangelical Christians
everywhere was overwhelming. No similar
series had appeared in seventy years and the
news that the great classics of Christian his-tory
would be available was good news, in-deed!
The first title to be published in the
Moody Press' Wycliffe Series was "The Suf-fering
Saviour", the dramatized portrayal of
the last days of Christ before Calvary, by F.
W. Krumacher, and more than half of the ini-tial
edition was distributed in its first month
of print. Following .Krumacher's masterpiece
was a reprint of the life and letters of the
saintly Scotch preacher, Rev. R. M. McCheyne,
under the title, "Memoirs of McCheyne" by
Andrew Bonar. Others to follow in the series
are such works as "The Holy War" by John
Bunyan, "The Letters of Samuel Rutherford",
also edited by Andrew Bonar, and the best-loved
works of such spiritual giants as Philip
Doddridge, John Knox, Martin Luther, Isaac
Watts and Matthew Henry. The series will
include approximately forty great volumes,
selected by Dr. Wilbur Smith, outstanding bi-bliographer,
and are being published at the
rate of two or three a year.
Other publishers, realizing the great in-terest
in great Christian literature, have an-nounced
their plans to publish similar series
of spiritual masterpieces. Zondervan Press is
publishing their Caistian Life Library, con-taining
John Bunyan's "Grace Abounding To
The Chiei: Of Sinners", "Many Infallible
Proofs" by A. T. Pierson, a condensation of
"Life of Christ" by Farrar, and A. J. Gordon's
"The Ministry Of The Holy Spirit" plus other
titles to be announced.
As their contribution to this field, Eerdmans
recently completed its Machen reprint series
which now includes his "Christianity and
Liberalism", "What Is Faith", "The Drigin of
Paul's Religion", "The Christian Faith In The
Modern World", and "The Christian View Of
Man". In the process of printing is the Truett
Memorial Series honoring the late Dr. George
W. Truett. Their $5,000 evangelical book award
winner, "An Introduction To Christian Apolo-getics"
by E. J. Carnell, is now in print also
and- is a noteworthy modern contribution to
the field of Christian doctrinal literature.
Bakit awl &mat
Dear Butch,
Guess what? My term paper on "The Idios-yncrasies
of the Social Life of the Tapeworm"
is finished and now that my.. typewriter is
again free, maybe a few lines of news from
here and there, (mostly here) would be in
order. Our correspondance during the last
month has been rather spasmodic but you rea-lize,
of course, that I write • strictly upon in-spiration
(and paper).
The other day I walked into Dean Carlson's
office and I no sooner shut the door than I
,opened it and rushed out to check the school
caaalogue. Sure enough, page 8 still contained
this phase, "a life free from tobacco habits",
but I had ray doubts when I got a whiff of
the air in the Dean's office. There was a
very definite aroma of cigar smoke but An-nabelle
didn't look particulary sick so I fig-ured
that the other occupant of the office was
the offender. However, when Idiscovered C. E.
was not in, I was at a loss for an explanation.
Finally, Miss Sherman told me that a sales-man
had just paid a business call and had
pervaded the air with the "el ropo" odor. I
guess that was an unpreventable occurence
but it had me worried for a few minutes.
A worthy project for some of our labora-tory
technicians these spring days would
be to discover a serum to inject into our
systems to counteract the various fevers
very much in evidence on the, campus. We
have spring fever, engagement fever, base-ball
fever, Como Park fever and even lab.
feier (right, Pat and Don?) but there is
little evidence of study fever, I'm afraid.
I am sure the faculty would subsidize any
discovery which would induce an interest
in textbooks which would be greater than
any of these other maladys. Submit your
suggestions to Prof. Engwall.
Speaking of fevers, I was relaxing on the
grass over by the Institute sign the other day
enjoying the sunshine and dreaming of the
29th of May. I felt very good until all of a
sudden the sun quit shining (I thought). I
woke up, however, and there, standing about
100 ft. away was–Bob Mantzke blocking the
rays of the sun. I didn't realize how big he
actually was, however, until I saw the picture
of his chorus in the Coffee Shop. Take a look
at it sometime and notice how he picked the
smallest girls in the group to stand on either
side of him. Of course, don't pay too much
attention to the advertisement telling of his
concert on May 21 in the Mpls. Auditorium be-cause
you probably haven't got 50c or $1 to
spend. I'm going to put on Bob's rubber mask
and sit in the front row but that probably
won't affect him as much as my real face.
I have a suggestion to the committee plan-ning
the new Library building. Divide the
library into three sections: (1) Study room
for 10% of the students (2) Reading room
for 30% of the student body and (3) Discus-sion
room for the other 60% who will fre-quent
the building.
Lest I forget to remind myself later on,
here's wshing you and all the rest of the 'kids
an enjoyable summer free from books, classes
and tripe such as this every week.
Buddy
Homer Turns Cartoonist
Dear Editor,
I have a complaint to make about the Clar-ion!
Those cartoons that your so-called artist
draws have no right in a high class paper.
My protest is against that good-for nothing
cartoonist who continually makes fun of me
in his worthless drawings.
Ye Olde Coffee Shoppe
Drip or Regular?
I am the spirit of Bethel's traditional Coffee
Shop. I am the provider of life for the stud-ents—
and Lundbergs.
Through my portals pass the most beautiful
women of all Bethel. My walls have heard
all manner of conversation. My eyes have be-held
all types of inconsistencies. Haven't you
noticed dear ones, he who habitually says
grace over a cup of coffee while he is seated,
and yet while this same person stands at the
counter he finds grace an unnecessary thing
over a Popsickle or a hot dog?
I cater to the, scholars, the professors,
and all other profound thinkers. Those
who inhabit, and I accent inhabit, my
booths are men of purpose, men of am-bition,
and men of action. My tables have
become the judicial benches on which our
Bethe,I prosecutors and our judges are
even now pleading and passing judgment
on the destiny of nations, the control of
atomic power, or speculating as to the
time when women will be forced to put
cuffs one their skirts.
Please scrutinize my faithful patrons with
me for a monment. Have you noticed what
methods they use to promote deeper thinking
on such subjects as the source of Uranium
235? Many times I have seen these noble, gen-tlemen
balance saucer on coke bottle, cup on
saucer, notebook on the cup,and finally they
gently place a wet napkin on the notebook.
Yes, they find it necessary to go through these
manuevers in order to gain balance in their
thinking.
One more thing has become part of me.
That is the gum my customers have stuck
on my chairs. I really wish they would
refrain from leaving their unwanted gum
under the seats because I don't want to be
stuck up. After all, I want to be friendly.
We all know that coffee comes in two grinds
—regular and drip. Help make me a Regular
coffee shop, not a Drip coffee shop.

If I ever get my hands on that character he
will have wished he had been a poet. I insist
that you discontinue using anymore of this
disgraceful art. This cartoon will show you
what high class, art is and also what I think
of that guy.

SPORTS
THE CLARION Page 3
My sincerest sympathy is here-by
extended to the Misses Ruth
Anderson, Lucille Palmer, and Jean
Butler. Your men, namely Marv,
Dave and Bob, have been hound-ing
me for the past week in an
attempt to get this article written.
Those of you that rushed during
the last few minutes to get your
team paper in on time know how
I feel in trying to get this in for
the next issue. And if the Clarion
is late this week, well, maybe one
of the feature writers didn't get
his article in on time. That rat!
Students sitting near the
dishwashers room while eat-ing
in the Dining Hall often
have the added joy of listening
to the singing of the crew
headed by Senator Carlson.
Guess there's a reason for sing-ing.
Someone handed me the
"Brag Sheet", which includes
the reasons for breakage of
dishes. Seems Don breaks some-thing
every time a certain
young lady brings a tray to the
window.
Wonder when the Spires are
coming out. Last year very few
students had an opportunity to get
autographs. The last day of school,
several were standing around wear-ing
out fountain pens. If you es-pecially
enjoy autographs, here's
a friendly suggestion. Walk down
to Falcon Heights, reach into your
pocket and grab a thin dime that
may be left over after all the
school bills are paid, and ask the
clerk for an autograph book. If
she has one, grab it and come back
and. get it filled. If she hasn't,
come back, grab some notebook
paper (unused) and try to catch
those signatures you desire. P.S.
Also buy an extra pair of shoes.
The J. S. is now History. We
wish to thank the faculty for allow-ing
the students extra time after
the banquet so we could go out on
picnics and get filled up. There is
still some debate as to why Bob
Mantzke left early. Some say he
was hungry again already, but
most believe hg just ran out of
jokes and had no more to say. The
banquet did prove one thing
though. Long skirts are definitely
becoming the style.
Evangelism Stressed
The importance of evangelism
has been 'stressed this past week
in the Seminary. A series of talks
on the methods and need of visi-tation
evangelism has been given
by the Rev. Edward Nelson, who
is in charge of the General Con-ference
work in that field, while
an outline of the General Con-fererce
Home Mission work was
given by the Rev. William Turn-wall,
the Home Missions Secretary.
The talks by Mr. Nelson included
a briefing of a party of students
who are carrying out a house-to-house
visitation in Northern Min-nesota.
During the week samples
of the materials used and the
available text-books were on dis-play
in the Seminary Chapel for
consultation.

Tops Waldorf
The Bethel Indians defeated
Waldorf Junior College 8 to 5 to
win their first conference baseball
game this season. The game was
played in Forest City, Iowa, on
Aprril 28.
The Indians scored three times
in the first inning on a couple
hits and some loose fielding by
Waldorf, and stayed in front
througout the game. Waldorf scor-ed
once in the first inning, twice
in the fourth, and pushed across
two runs in the eighth to threaten
but could get no more than a harm-less
single in the ninth.
Kenny Greenman, the winning
pitcher, allowed 11 hits but kept
them well scattered. Greenman
showed good control in striking
out eight while walking only one
batter. The losing pitcher was
Graham who, though he struck out
eleven men, was the victim of
his teammates' miscues.
Indians Lose to
Bethany J.C. 10-9
Bethany Junior College of Man-kato
outlasted the Indians, 10 to 9
in a wild seven inning game play-ed
in Como Park on May 1. The
Indians appeared to be carrying
the ideal of Charity a bit too far
as they did all they could to make
the visitors happy. It must be said
however, that the visitors were
not impolite, for they did all they
could to decline the victory, but
the Indians had their way.
Hitting was the feature of the
day with Bethel out-hitting Beth-any,
14 to 12. Woody Larsen, the
Indians' pint-sized catcher had a
perfect day at bat with three hits
and a walk.
Concordia Comets
Win Over Bethel
Concordia Junior College slap-ped
a nine to five defeat on the
Indians in a game played at Dun-ning
Field on May 5. Though out-hit
the Comets managed to bunch
their hits to score four times in
the first two innings, and five
times in the fifth to clinch the
game. Souchek started on the
mound for Bethel, and Greenman
relieved him in the third. Panning
pitched all the way for Concordia.

Summer Work
In Alaska
Realizing the need of further-ance
of the new Gospel work in
Anchorage, Alaska, the Minnesota
Baptist Conference has appointed
two Bethel students, Vernon Ander-sno,
and Wilbur (Bud) Peterson,
to represent them this summer in
the work up there. They will leave
at the end of this school term, and
return early in September.
Rev. Albin Carlson, missionary
to Alaska, will return this month
to the States in the recently pur
chased Chevrolet truck. He will
then fly his seaplane back to Alas-ka,
and Vernon and Bud will drive
the truck to Anchorage with a load
of supplies.
Vernon and Bud will assist
Mr. Carlson in visitation work
Bible schools, and help with
the construction of a new
chapel. Gene Johnson, who left
Bethel at the end of the second
quarter, also has been working
with Mr. Carlson on the chapel.
The boys are looking forward
with expectation to their journey
and are praying that they may help
in the furtherance of the Gospel
work in Alaska.
