LEARNING RESOURCE BETHEL COLLEGE (Photo by Ostrum) English Department will conduct a seminar on "Christian Values and Significant Literature" at Founders week. Major literary works will be discussed in terms of their contributions to our understanding of Christian values and our human predicament. Jeannine Bohlmeyer will examine "The Trial" by Kafka; Rolland Hein, "The Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad; Betty Tutton, "Elmer Gantry" by Sinclair Lewis; and Edward Avey, "Areopagitica" by John Milton. (Photo by Ostrum) - Open Occupancy Law and Christian Responsibility" will be the topic of a televised panel discussion at 8:30 p.m. on Feb. 18 on KTCA Television, channel 2. Members of the panel are Dr. Robert Mounce; Dr. David Moberg, moderator; and Dr. Ivan Fahs. In April, 1961, the Minnesota State legislature passed the Minnesota State Act Against Discrimination, which deals with the question of fair housing: whether or not persons should be prohibited from purchasing homes and property in this state on the grounds of race, creed or national baikground. There are primarily two parts included in the law: discrimination in employment and the provisions dealing directly with housing. The employment portion of the law is the culmination of earlier laws; how-ever, the housing portion of the law was passed on Dec. 31, 1962.

"WE BELIEVE this program rep-resents education in a fundamen-tal sense—the prospect of hearing opposing points of view expressed articulately and from personal ex-perience by specialists in the field, followed by reflection and evalua-tion by the listener," said Norman Uphoff, MSA president. Beginning at 7:15, the four-night program will feature two speakers each evening. On Sun-day, Feb. 17, a nuclear scientist, Ralph Lapp and educator-philo-sopher Harold Taylor, former president of Sarah Lawrence col- Gene Glader, chairman of the campus civil defense committee, announced that Bethel students may participate in a training pro-gram for managers of fallout shel-ters and operators of radiological monitoring instruments.

Personal Expression Rests On_Christ-within _Experience Academic with Religious Chinese Atomic Force Disturbs Christian College Links US-USSR Military Balance Past 2 the CLARION Tuesday, February 12, 1963 Images are relative, and the reflection of Bethel college is no exception. To the observer an exact definition of the school is not readily discernible, and it appears to be in a state of flux. In spite of its nine decades of operation, Bethel's emergence as a liberal arts college is comparatively recent, and she still has not been allowed to break completely with the comfortable Bible school tradition. However, the time has ar-rived when such a representation is no longer honest, and faculty and students are turning to reinterpret what the school is or should be. Ideally, the Christian liberal arts college is the synthesis of a religious and an academic community. It is a Christian institution, but it is not a church, and its primary function is education. Its purpose is to present an educational program which carries the respect of the academic world and which provides students with the knowledge and appreciation of our culture that creates social and intellectual peers. But more than this, it is an education centered totally within the framework of a continuing Christian experience. Thus the Christian college, with its dedicated faculty and ad-ministration, should provide the avenue for building a sin-cere, secure faith and for applying a dynamic Christianity to the problems of the modern world. And to grant this avenue such a role demands assigning it freedom—not the negativistic freedom "from," but freedom "for." Faculty must have freedom for honest and impartial con-sideration of all knowledge with a well-founded claim to truth. They must be allowed to present facts and theories from both sides, in the belief that true science and true religion are never antagonistic. Students must have freedom for the free and unhampered search for truth in all areas of life. They must be allowed to "examine all things," to discuss with fellow students and to engage in individual research to determine their own credo. Clearly then, it becomes imperative for the truly Chris-tian college to develop a curriculum allowing for variation in concepts developed. And this necessitates a, firm belief that honest and sincere experimental thinking cannot betray the core of our Christian faith. Thus, in such an atmosphere the student should be encouraged not merely to accept his reli-gion, but to study and evaluate it in terms of his own think-ing and to develop his own application of it to modern society. Oecasionally-tamions develop due-te- the eonfliet between values easily defined as Christian and those which have no particular religious designation. However, on the campus of a Christian college, there should be no sharp division between the secular and the sacred; everything which is done should be done for the glory of God and for the achievement of his purpose. In essence, then, the ideal Christian liberal arts college is that institution which is rooted in a sound tradition of scholarship and which is dedicated to developing Christian character which expresses itself through intelligent social lea-dership and through lay and professional leadership in the Christian movement. Is this Bethel? by Dave Johnson Kenneth L. Pike, "With Heart and Mind: a personal synthesis of scholarship and devo-tion." Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Com-pany. Grand Rapids, Mich. 1962, pp. 140: $1.75. Well known as a linguist, Dr. Pike has ventured into deep waters in seeking to reconcile scholarship and Christianity. "For the past generation or two the evangelical wing of the church has viewed scholarship with suspicion." The church, he says, has sought to serve God with heart and soul, and has neglected serving Him with mind. He writes an account of his personal struggle in inte-grating intellectual efforts and Christian faith. HE HAS divided the book into four parts: in the first, he outlines and explores the limitations and shortcomings of man's intellect; in the second, he discusses how viewpoint affects man reactions to God; In the third, he emphasizes per-sonal committment to God as well as intellectual understanding of truth; finally, he points out the fact that man has been given the Pike recognizes that all men ground their philosophies on cer-tain assumptions. He points out that Nicodemus, the intellectual, is the only man in the Bible that Jesus told he "must be born again." Intellectual assumptions must be discarded before an indi-vidual can have a personal know-ledge of God. MAN MUST seek God if he is to find Him. The man who defies anyone to show him God in the universe will never find a man to make the demonstration. Man must humbly seek for God, and God must reveal Himself to man. Once man has sought God and God has shown Himself, man must go one step further. He must turn his entire being over to God, and this is the hardest of all. Faith or conviction without willingness to spend oneself has no effect on the world around us, and is of no use to God. by Paul Carlson Communist China will soon have the atomic- bomb, an especially dis-turbing fact for the free world since the current balance of power is dependent upon a bilateral nu-clear situation. Up to now, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. have had ap-proximately the same nuclear strength and consequently have on several occasions genuinely frus-trated each other's military offen-sives. While we do not enjoy this type of "co-existence," it has become a rather tacit guarantee that neither by Karen Nelson Word formulas and cliche testi-monies which are characteristic of evangelical Christians earn recurr ing disapproval. Perhaps the prob-lem indicated by this disapproval is deeper than that of verbal con-formity. Could it be that the lack of creative religious expression is a THOROUGHLY ACQUAINTED with the Bible as a translator, Pike displays a keen insight into many areas of religious-intellectual dis-agreement. He manages to pre-sent a sound position without preaching and without limiting the reader to only acceptance or re-jection of his position. His work, if not always philoso-phically immaculate, has a personal involvement not found in philo-sophy and an intellectual convic-tion not found in devotionals. power will commit the deadly hor-ror of nuclear destruction. WITH RED CHINA emerging upon the nuclear stage, however, the problem of maintaining that impasse becomes more tenuous. The United States will undoubtedly feel constrained to embark on a gigantic program to manufacture more nuclear warheads and distri-bute them to our growing number of missile sites in the Far East. Hopefully, she will not in the process become so wrapped up in the effort that she becomes a nation dedicated to an image symptom of a lack of creative indi-vidual spiritual existence? Could it even be that persons are deluded by their facility with formulized verbal codes in-to believing that appearance is the total of the Christian exper-ience? The essential realness of the Christian or Christ-within exper-ience is rebirth. It is necessarily creative, for only as it is creative is it really living. And by reason of its creation it is necessarily individual. So if expression of the experience is sincere, how can it help but be individual? When the Christ-within is gen-erating a vital radiance—freedom from pride, freedom from fear— why do we need conformity, for conformity implies insecurity. What we wish for is harmony, not conformity, a harmony of complementary units. There is no more harmony when everyone 'plays the same note than when everyone is playing random notes. Individual wholeness demands freedom. Only fear demands con-formity. And freedom demands only truth, sincerity of the inner man whose outerness is an expres-sion. Can our testimony, or our outer person, really be an "expression" when it is not expressing an inner experience, but only acknowledg-ing to word formulas and social codes of an evangelical subculture? The same Christ is within all who are truly Christians, but in-dividuals are expressing Him. Per-haps the only commonality of that testimony is: "God's son has set me free!" of military strength rather than one passionately devoted to the ideal of peace. As indicated in a previous arti-cle, the grave task of the United States in this situation will un-doubtedly be aggravated by the unpredictability of Red China's Mao Tse Tung. His particular var-iety of Communism and the tem-perament of his impoverished mil-lions makes diplomatic relations almost, although, not entirely, in-calculable. TO US, the most frustrating fac-tor in the impending episode lies in the utter helplessness of Am-erican statesmen in their efforts to decide upon positive peaceful diplomacy. There are, however, several reasons to hope that ultimate in-ternational security without mili-tary devastation is at least a possibility. Of primary concern, for exam-ple, to students of international re-lations is the Sino-Soviet split. If that split is as significant as West-ern authorities now believe, Mao will be forced to reckon with the live possibility of Soviet hostilities as well as that from the West for any irresponsible aggression. IF THAT RIFT is not as serious as we assume, then the Chinese will have little recourse but to act as a temperamental but re-strained little brother to the ever so much more passive Russians. Finally, there is hope that the Chinese will develop a sensitivity to the responsibility that such a position of leadership demands. This has happened to the Soviet Union; she was once dominated by leaders of untempered inhu-manity and seemingly rational sterility. Presently she has a ruthless but humane and reason-. able leader who recognizes the hideousness of nuclear war. Mao has boasted long and loud that China would conquer the world for Communism if only she had the military wherewithal to do so. Thus, if war can be averted for the next two decades without ser-ious increase in Communist domi-nation, it will likely be because the Chinese will have had a change of heart, be it ever so slight. We ought as a moral and peace-ful people to watch for this change in hope and unspiteful patience. WI& Weep . . Tuesday, Feb. 12 7 p.m. Income tax session. Harold Tetlie.

His paintings appear in the collections of Walker Art center and are frequently seen in art ex-hibits in the Midwest, particularly in Minnesota. Oils now on display in the Bethel coffee shop reveal a careful and almost axially symmetrical bal-ance. Overlapping solid rectangles and triangles, a kind of cubism in "Crusaders," are differentiated by predominantly vertical lines and are colored in light browns, yellows and oranges. The colors look slightly emaciated and shallow, and there seems to be a lack of orig-inal expression. THREE WATER-COLORS dis-played are pleasing but rather standard. "Late Snow" exhibits a controlled technique, but is too obvious a representation. "Becker County, Fall" is carefully organiz-ed, but the technique of streaking the paper with a horizontal band of bright color and then inking in a few trees or buildings seems more like a gimmick. Pen and ink drawings are more lastingly fascinating and present Bethel Student Body: We would like to express to all of you our deep appreciation for your interest in us and for honor-ing us during Missions weeks with your gift.

The ver-tical figures in "Solomon and Sheba" and "Flagellation" stare blankly and despairingly, indiffer-ent to the similar figures around them. However, the immediate effect-iveness of these pictures is too de-pendent on caricature, and nothing new or different is seen upon look-ing at them the third or fourth time. "URBAN RENEWAL" is an ex-ception to most of the art display-ed; it remains more permanently impressive. Here intersecting hori-zontal and vertical ink lines are built into a complex network that offers more variation and intrigue, In review, Running's art is de-lightful, but is too decorative, too "nice." The technique and general organization seems to be a kind that is learned, rather than indi-vidually and intuitively felt and developed. The paintings lack the emotional drive and intensity that characterize works of the better contemporary artists. Write to us.

Is unsports-manlike conduct of the Bethel stu-dent body appropriate to the Chris-tian testimony it proclaims? "Christian spectators" personally insult players on the opposing teams. Cries such as "Methuselah" and "Baldy" taunt opposing play-ers unmercifully. Referees are no longer considered people, but striped blindmen who should be the butt of unceasing slander. The Christian witness rings out loud and clear, especially during free throws, intentionally distract-ing opponents from their shots, When the opposing coach jumps off the bench to question a ref-eree's call, there comes the jeer, "Sit down, Baldy!" as if he had no right to question the referee. Do we forget that "Bethel" means "House of God?" Or isn't by Annette Larson Maybe you're like me and all your life you've wanted to be a teacher. After all, teaching is that occupation in which one can mold the minds of America's future citizens, in which one can challenge the world's leaders of tomorrow to hitherto unthought-of heights, in which one can . . . But the only inevitable which does not fit into this pattern is student teaching, a transitional per-iod in the life of the would-be teacher in which he is not sure whether he is student or teacher and harbors a suspicion that he is neither. Having received a student teaching assignment, one en-counters his first problem in the knowledge of subject matter. The astute individual soon learns to camouflage inadequate know-ledge by a retreat into erudite verbiage, or better yet, into a complex and un-answerable re-statement of the impertinent question. Even after all precautions have been taken, some students may Solomon and Sheba "Bethel" a "House of God" when the student body goes to a basket-ball game? Can we shout a "House of God" cheer during an oppon-ent's free throw? Must we stand up in our "House of God" sweat-shirts and call the referee a "blind idiot" because he calls a foul on our team? Will we forfeit our Christian testimony to taunt the opposing coach every time he gets off the bench; or to ridicule the baldness, skinniness or fatness of an oppos-ing player; or to scorn the star player of another team?

Last spring, we decided to seek the regional convention chair so that we could make a positive contribution in directing the organization. The recent convention was an attempt to translate our philosophy of what AAES should be into reality. A conscious effort was made to focus attention on some of the leading edges of consideration in the relating of our faith to con-temporary problems in science, philosophy and the contemporary scene. Re-hashing areas of agreement or considering matters that are a common experience to the major-ity of Christian students would have been less controversial, but also an inadequate justification for the existence of AAES. AAES must lead Christian student thought. In one respect we were not only presenting our philosophy of AAES, but our ideals for Christian liberal arts education and the contribution which Bethel has to make to the reali-zation of these ideals. Our expectations were gratified by an eager response to our pre-sentation. Whether we have chal-lenged and significantly effected the progress of AAES remains to be seen. • .5/ eAtg0f ,'/5*;9116t, (Photo by Ostrum) Human evolution was the subject of a discussion group led by Claude Stipe at the Midwest Regional convention of the AAES held on Bethel's campus last weekend.

SPAN, begun by a group of Uni-versity of Minnesota students in-terested in furthering international understanding, offers substantial monetary subsidy, eight semester credits, and travel and touring in a foreign country to those students recommended by their college and selected by a screening committee. THIS SUMMER, two Bethelites-a student and a faculty member��� will be going abroad for twelve weeks under the auspices of SPAN. Junior Joan McNaughton has been accepted as a member of the SPAN group traveling to Finland, while Spanish teacher Lilian Ryberg will serve as advisor to SPANers in Brazil. Joan's trip to Finland, leaving in late June, will be the cul-mination for her of many weeks of pre-study in Finnish culture, customs, and language. Her group meets frequently to acquaint themselves with the coun-try and its people, as well as to discuss American political beliefs, race problems, and other aspects of our culture in which Europeans would be likely to take interest. "MY SPECIFIC area of concen-tration," says Joan, "will be the Finnish theater, which is unique in that it is so highly organized and widely found throughout the country." Joan chose the theater arts rather than a more politically-oriented area of study because she feels that this cultural field affords her the best opportunity to learn about true Finnish life. She hopes to do extensive travel-ing within the country, research-ing her project and formulating impressions which she and the other SPANers will present in the form of a research paper when they return to Minnesota. NEXT YEAR, their presentations will help to solicit funds for next year's SPAN trips to Algeria, In-dia, Colombia, and Poland. "I'm very happy about this opportunity," claims Joan, "and wish that more Bethel students would take advantage of SPAN's aid program." Miss Ryberg echoes Joan in en-couraging those interested to see Dr. Walfred Peterson, SPAN ad-visor on campus. COMMENTING ON financial as-pects, she says, "Numerous scholar-ships and other aids are available to help students who want to go abroad but have money problems. SPAN is such a worthwhile project that I urge interested persons to investigate its possibilities." Arriving in Brazil early this summer, she will be on hand to serve as academic advisor to SPANers from Macalester col-lege, Augsburg, Gustavus Adol-by Jim Spickelmier Feb. 8 and 9 the Midwest Reg-ional convention of the American Association of Evangelical students was held on the Bethel campus.

Director of the Bureau of Educational Research at the U. of Minn., Dr. Torrance discussed as-pects of creativity and problems of being creative in this "computer age." Three specific developments in history have led to the greater utilization of man's capabilities; the alphabet, the printing press and the computer. THEIR COMING unleashed a cer-tain fear that man's mind would now deteriorate because man would not have to use his mem-ory. The human memory, however, was discovered to have limitation, and the development of the print-ing press enabled man to reach toward higher goals. In his closing analogue, Tor-rance clarified the place of the computer by illustrating that a person probing a question is sup-plied with information from the computer rather than from his own memory. Thus his thinking is free for creative imagination to work. Today there is a more favorable climate for expansion and explora-tion of creativity, for a far greater rate of technological change than ever before has contributed impli-cations of greater adaptation. IN PARTIALLY answering the question "will a more creative and humane type of education catch on?", Torrance touched on our "cummulative knowledge about man's creativity. He stated that al-though we have known that it is natural to learn by questioning, searching, still we have insisted than man learn by authority. "The overall evidence is that we have not gone very far in stimulating critical and creative thinking. To most teachers and parents the ideal pupil is cour-teous, polite, well-liked by peers, gets work in on time rather than being an independent, courag-eous thinker." Dr. Torrance continued with a discussion of the "forces that have made it difficult to be a whole creative person." We have been taught by authority; we face a struggle to obtain good grades; students are reluctant to take ad-vantage of self-iniated study; and we live in a "clock-orientated" cul-ture divided into fifty-minutes, weeks, semesters. FURTHERMORE, large areas of experience have been made off-limit or taboo. The most effective taboos are misplaced emphases such as calling sensitivity a femin-ine value and independence of mind a masculine virtue. Students assented to his re-mark that teachers and parents encourage us to be independent in thinking but not in judgment. They protect us from failure; they warn us not be fanatics but to be normal. Dr. Torrance encouraged us to "push on to creative solutions." "Not love alone, but creative thinking makes the world go round." The realization of this will make our age as John Glenn called it, "the age of imagination and inquiry."

It was his second pin in two starts. Despite Anderson's winning effort the visiting Falcons eventually won the match 18.15. Bethel, Jan. 29, ended a six game losing streak by outrunning North-western (Minn.) 81-74. The Royals then lost three straight close games to Northland, River Falls and Wah-peton before beating Morris. At Northwestern, Dave Peter-man and Roger Olson led Bethel's scoring attack with 21 and 20 points respectively. The Royals jumped to an early 10 point lead with Peterman scoring five straight push shots. The Eagles closed the gap to take a 43-40 halftime lead. BAJUNI EMI'S SHOOTING and floor play gave Bethel a 3 point lead early in the second half.

After the cries of "block that shuttle cock" had died away it was Bob Smith of the Barons who was ton top in this annual tournament.

Bethel's other loss came at the hands of this same team 5-2. Their one victory was against Alexander Ramsey high school. Bethel jumped to an early 1-0 lead on a quick goal by Craig Kronholm. The lead was short-lived, however, as Park board wasted no time in tying the score and going ahead 2-1. Doug Todd's goal knotted the score at 2-2. Park board quickly moved ahead again, never being seriously threatened from then on. The only other Bethel tally came on a surprise goal by Vince Bloom. Outstanding individual perform-ances were turned in by Craig Kronholm, Dick Young, Bob Smith and Jim Friberg. An unexpected number of peo-ple turned out to see the game, played in Aldrich arena. The hard driving, aggressive play of the Bethel team combined with occas-ional brilliance showed much po-tential. with 30 seconds left broke the Bethel press and gave the visitors a two point victory. Bethel suffered its third straight defeat 82-65 to Wahpe-ton on the victor's home court.

Bethel ended their three game losing skein by outshooting Morris 58-55 at Morris. George Palke and Lee Bajuniemi with 12 and 11 points respectively led the Royal scoring attack to a 34-29 halftime lead. Dennis Clausen's 19 points sparked a Morris comeback as they overtook Bethel 45-44 late in the second half. Peterman's layup re-captured the lead and enabled the Royals to gain their three point victory. Hamline 16-11, Improvement piers lost again. An experienced River Falls group won 18-15. Probably the most outstanding indication of Bethel's improvement could be seen in their match with Concordia on Feb. 8. Concordia won 23-13, the score differing con-siderably from the 34-0 defeat handed Bethel earlier this season by the same team. Points for Bethel came from Clothier and Paul Anderson, while Dischinger won on a for-feit. Paul Anderson is an exceptional wrestler and the team's most con-sistent winner. He has pinned three opponents in as many matches. Clothier and Gronau are steadily bettering themselves and proving to be valuable assets. O of .01 U • Sidelines by Bob Beckstrom In light of the current basketball season it would seem that a late-season fold would be in order for the Royal cagers. There are several reasons, however, why one would hesitate to forecast such a fold. One reason is that these final three games include two home games. In spite of the fact that Bethel fans have seen only one victory this season, the games have still been exciting and the Royals have lately played some inspired ball. Another reason for anticipating a thrilling final stretch is that one of the home games is with Northwestern. The traditional rivalry is nothing new to anybody at Bethel, and the recent clash in Northwestern's telephone booth foreshadows as exciting a sequel as any. And, of course, its being the Founders week game adds any further impetus necessary to make it an inspired effort. It is the one game of the year when everyone forgets about the rest of the season and comes out to see Bethel beat Northwestern. No one can write Bethel off in the Moorhead, Northwestern and Northland games. Moorhead, having a so-so season, will be hosting Augs-burg tonight and then traveling to Bethel Friday night. The men to watch are Don Wormager, a 5'9" guard who has been scoring in the twenties, and Jim Jahr, an all-region freshman from Alexandria. The hook shot specialist is also the Dragons' tallest man at 6'4". The B squad will play the Minnesota School of Business in the preliminary. Providing stiff opposition from Northwestern again will be Walt Green and Jim Carlson, both scoring around the twenty mark. Bethel, however, will have both Dave Peterman and Roger Olson, as well as Lee Bajuniemi and Phil Bolinder, who scored 19 points apiece against Northwestern. The final game against Northland should have no indication of late-season slump either. The Royals will have the incentive of both playing the final game of the season and avenging Northland's Sno- Daze overtime victory. A final reason for anticipating a good showing in Bethe'ls final three games is the outstanding improvement of individual players. Olson, getting 14 points against Northwestern (Ia.) and 20 against Northwestern (Minn.) and Phil Bolinder have improved tremendously under the boards. George Palke, sophomore transfer from Wheaton, and Don Moore have given added board strength. Loss of reserve guard Bill McCarrel with a twisted knee may hurt. Bajuniemi and Moore will also be playing on weakened ankles, but the team does not look ready to fold in the final stretch. Matmen Beat Show Steady by Don Allison Bethel's matmen, inexperienced as they are, made an impressive showing against Hamline, Michi-gan Tech, River Falls and Con-cordia in their most recent mat-ches. The Royals eased by Hamline 16-11 in a match seen prior to the B-team game on Feb. 2. Clothier, Gronau, Anderson and Hagfeldt were winners for Bethel. A superior Michigan Tech team leveled Bethel on Feb. 5, 30-7, the latter's only points corn-ing on a draw by Rodger Gronau and a pin by Paul Anderson.

Initiated by the Minnesota Stu-dent association, the symposium will be open to the public free of charge. "WE BELIEVE this program rep-resents education in a fundamen-tal sense—the prospect of hearing opposing points of view expressed articulately and from personal ex-perience by specialists in the field, followed by reflection and evalua-tion by the listener," said Norman Uphoff, MSA president. Beginning at 7:15, the four-night program will feature two speakers each evening. On Sun-day, Feb. 17, a nuclear scientist, Ralph Lapp and educator-philo-sopher Harold Taylor, former president of Sarah Lawrence col- Gene Glader, chairman of the campus civil defense committee, announced that Bethel students may participate in a training pro-gram for managers of fallout shel-ters and operators of radiological monitoring instruments. Due to the location of a fallout shelter in the sub-basement of the college, the training courses will be administered free of charge.

Groups of 30 will be introduced to the organization of the commun-ity shelter system and will discuss aspects of shelter management ranging from human relations in the shelter to service aspects such as health, sanitation, feeding, radio• logical monitoring and communica-tions. Following this instruction, the group will live in a shelter at the Minnesota Highway Civil Defense training center under simulated emergency conditions for a 24-hour period to gain practical knowledge of shelter management. Interested students and faculty members can secure additional in-formation by contacting Mr. Glader. With the theme "Contemporary Issues and Christian Values" the twentieth annual Founders week will be held this coming Feb. 18 through 22. "The purpose of the 1963 Foun-ders week is to enable us to view some of the crucial issues of our day in the perspective of values growing out of our Christian com-mitment," states President Lund-quist. ANNUAL HISTORICAL banquet with guest Dale Bjork, on furlough from Japan, speaking on "Bethel's Ministry in a World of Revolu-tion" will initiate the evening pro-grams. Frank C.

Personal Expression Rests On_Christ-within _Experience Academic with Religious Chinese Atomic Force Disturbs Christian College Links US-USSR Military Balance Past 2 the CLARION Tuesday, February 12, 1963 Images are relative, and the reflection of Bethel college is no exception. To the observer an exact definition of the school is not readily discernible, and it appears to be in a state of flux. In spite of its nine decades of operation, Bethel's emergence as a liberal arts college is comparatively recent, and she still has not been allowed to break completely with the comfortable Bible school tradition. However, the time has ar-rived when such a representation is no longer honest, and faculty and students are turning to reinterpret what the school is or should be. Ideally, the Christian liberal arts college is the synthesis of a religious and an academic community. It is a Christian institution, but it is not a church, and its primary function is education. Its purpose is to present an educational program which carries the respect of the academic world and which provides students with the knowledge and appreciation of our culture that creates social and intellectual peers. But more than this, it is an education centered totally within the framework of a continuing Christian experience. Thus the Christian college, with its dedicated faculty and ad-ministration, should provide the avenue for building a sin-cere, secure faith and for applying a dynamic Christianity to the problems of the modern world. And to grant this avenue such a role demands assigning it freedom—not the negativistic freedom "from," but freedom "for." Faculty must have freedom for honest and impartial con-sideration of all knowledge with a well-founded claim to truth. They must be allowed to present facts and theories from both sides, in the belief that true science and true religion are never antagonistic. Students must have freedom for the free and unhampered search for truth in all areas of life. They must be allowed to "examine all things," to discuss with fellow students and to engage in individual research to determine their own credo. Clearly then, it becomes imperative for the truly Chris-tian college to develop a curriculum allowing for variation in concepts developed. And this necessitates a, firm belief that honest and sincere experimental thinking cannot betray the core of our Christian faith. Thus, in such an atmosphere the student should be encouraged not merely to accept his reli-gion, but to study and evaluate it in terms of his own think-ing and to develop his own application of it to modern society. Oecasionally-tamions develop due-te- the eonfliet between values easily defined as Christian and those which have no particular religious designation. However, on the campus of a Christian college, there should be no sharp division between the secular and the sacred; everything which is done should be done for the glory of God and for the achievement of his purpose. In essence, then, the ideal Christian liberal arts college is that institution which is rooted in a sound tradition of scholarship and which is dedicated to developing Christian character which expresses itself through intelligent social lea-dership and through lay and professional leadership in the Christian movement. Is this Bethel? by Dave Johnson Kenneth L. Pike, "With Heart and Mind: a personal synthesis of scholarship and devo-tion." Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Com-pany. Grand Rapids, Mich. 1962, pp. 140: $1.75. Well known as a linguist, Dr. Pike has ventured into deep waters in seeking to reconcile scholarship and Christianity. "For the past generation or two the evangelical wing of the church has viewed scholarship with suspicion." The church, he says, has sought to serve God with heart and soul, and has neglected serving Him with mind. He writes an account of his personal struggle in inte-grating intellectual efforts and Christian faith. HE HAS divided the book into four parts: in the first, he outlines and explores the limitations and shortcomings of man's intellect; in the second, he discusses how viewpoint affects man reactions to God; In the third, he emphasizes per-sonal committment to God as well as intellectual understanding of truth; finally, he points out the fact that man has been given the Pike recognizes that all men ground their philosophies on cer-tain assumptions. He points out that Nicodemus, the intellectual, is the only man in the Bible that Jesus told he "must be born again." Intellectual assumptions must be discarded before an indi-vidual can have a personal know-ledge of God. MAN MUST seek God if he is to find Him. The man who defies anyone to show him God in the universe will never find a man to make the demonstration. Man must humbly seek for God, and God must reveal Himself to man. Once man has sought God and God has shown Himself, man must go one step further. He must turn his entire being over to God, and this is the hardest of all. Faith or conviction without willingness to spend oneself has no effect on the world around us, and is of no use to God. by Paul Carlson Communist China will soon have the atomic- bomb, an especially dis-turbing fact for the free world since the current balance of power is dependent upon a bilateral nu-clear situation. Up to now, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. have had ap-proximately the same nuclear strength and consequently have on several occasions genuinely frus-trated each other's military offen-sives. While we do not enjoy this type of "co-existence," it has become a rather tacit guarantee that neither by Karen Nelson Word formulas and cliche testi-monies which are characteristic of evangelical Christians earn recurr ing disapproval. Perhaps the prob-lem indicated by this disapproval is deeper than that of verbal con-formity. Could it be that the lack of creative religious expression is a THOROUGHLY ACQUAINTED with the Bible as a translator, Pike displays a keen insight into many areas of religious-intellectual dis-agreement. He manages to pre-sent a sound position without preaching and without limiting the reader to only acceptance or re-jection of his position. His work, if not always philoso-phically immaculate, has a personal involvement not found in philo-sophy and an intellectual convic-tion not found in devotionals. power will commit the deadly hor-ror of nuclear destruction. WITH RED CHINA emerging upon the nuclear stage, however, the problem of maintaining that impasse becomes more tenuous. The United States will undoubtedly feel constrained to embark on a gigantic program to manufacture more nuclear warheads and distri-bute them to our growing number of missile sites in the Far East. Hopefully, she will not in the process become so wrapped up in the effort that she becomes a nation dedicated to an image symptom of a lack of creative indi-vidual spiritual existence? Could it even be that persons are deluded by their facility with formulized verbal codes in-to believing that appearance is the total of the Christian exper-ience? The essential realness of the Christian or Christ-within exper-ience is rebirth. It is necessarily creative, for only as it is creative is it really living. And by reason of its creation it is necessarily individual. So if expression of the experience is sincere, how can it help but be individual? When the Christ-within is gen-erating a vital radiance—freedom from pride, freedom from fear— why do we need conformity, for conformity implies insecurity. What we wish for is harmony, not conformity, a harmony of complementary units. There is no more harmony when everyone 'plays the same note than when everyone is playing random notes. Individual wholeness demands freedom. Only fear demands con-formity. And freedom demands only truth, sincerity of the inner man whose outerness is an expres-sion. Can our testimony, or our outer person, really be an "expression" when it is not expressing an inner experience, but only acknowledg-ing to word formulas and social codes of an evangelical subculture? The same Christ is within all who are truly Christians, but in-dividuals are expressing Him. Per-haps the only commonality of that testimony is: "God's son has set me free!" of military strength rather than one passionately devoted to the ideal of peace. As indicated in a previous arti-cle, the grave task of the United States in this situation will un-doubtedly be aggravated by the unpredictability of Red China's Mao Tse Tung. His particular var-iety of Communism and the tem-perament of his impoverished mil-lions makes diplomatic relations almost, although, not entirely, in-calculable. TO US, the most frustrating fac-tor in the impending episode lies in the utter helplessness of Am-erican statesmen in their efforts to decide upon positive peaceful diplomacy. There are, however, several reasons to hope that ultimate in-ternational security without mili-tary devastation is at least a possibility. Of primary concern, for exam-ple, to students of international re-lations is the Sino-Soviet split. If that split is as significant as West-ern authorities now believe, Mao will be forced to reckon with the live possibility of Soviet hostilities as well as that from the West for any irresponsible aggression. IF THAT RIFT is not as serious as we assume, then the Chinese will have little recourse but to act as a temperamental but re-strained little brother to the ever so much more passive Russians. Finally, there is hope that the Chinese will develop a sensitivity to the responsibility that such a position of leadership demands. This has happened to the Soviet Union; she was once dominated by leaders of untempered inhu-manity and seemingly rational sterility. Presently she has a ruthless but humane and reason-. able leader who recognizes the hideousness of nuclear war. Mao has boasted long and loud that China would conquer the world for Communism if only she had the military wherewithal to do so. Thus, if war can be averted for the next two decades without ser-ious increase in Communist domi-nation, it will likely be because the Chinese will have had a change of heart, be it ever so slight. We ought as a moral and peace-ful people to watch for this change in hope and unspiteful patience. WI& Weep . . Tuesday, Feb. 12 7 p.m. Income tax session. Harold Tetlie.

His paintings appear in the collections of Walker Art center and are frequently seen in art ex-hibits in the Midwest, particularly in Minnesota. Oils now on display in the Bethel coffee shop reveal a careful and almost axially symmetrical bal-ance. Overlapping solid rectangles and triangles, a kind of cubism in "Crusaders," are differentiated by predominantly vertical lines and are colored in light browns, yellows and oranges. The colors look slightly emaciated and shallow, and there seems to be a lack of orig-inal expression. THREE WATER-COLORS dis-played are pleasing but rather standard. "Late Snow" exhibits a controlled technique, but is too obvious a representation. "Becker County, Fall" is carefully organiz-ed, but the technique of streaking the paper with a horizontal band of bright color and then inking in a few trees or buildings seems more like a gimmick. Pen and ink drawings are more lastingly fascinating and present Bethel Student Body: We would like to express to all of you our deep appreciation for your interest in us and for honor-ing us during Missions weeks with your gift.

The ver-tical figures in "Solomon and Sheba" and "Flagellation" stare blankly and despairingly, indiffer-ent to the similar figures around them. However, the immediate effect-iveness of these pictures is too de-pendent on caricature, and nothing new or different is seen upon look-ing at them the third or fourth time. "URBAN RENEWAL" is an ex-ception to most of the art display-ed; it remains more permanently impressive. Here intersecting hori-zontal and vertical ink lines are built into a complex network that offers more variation and intrigue, In review, Running's art is de-lightful, but is too decorative, too "nice." The technique and general organization seems to be a kind that is learned, rather than indi-vidually and intuitively felt and developed. The paintings lack the emotional drive and intensity that characterize works of the better contemporary artists. Write to us.

Is unsports-manlike conduct of the Bethel stu-dent body appropriate to the Chris-tian testimony it proclaims? "Christian spectators" personally insult players on the opposing teams. Cries such as "Methuselah" and "Baldy" taunt opposing play-ers unmercifully. Referees are no longer considered people, but striped blindmen who should be the butt of unceasing slander. The Christian witness rings out loud and clear, especially during free throws, intentionally distract-ing opponents from their shots, When the opposing coach jumps off the bench to question a ref-eree's call, there comes the jeer, "Sit down, Baldy!" as if he had no right to question the referee. Do we forget that "Bethel" means "House of God?" Or isn't by Annette Larson Maybe you're like me and all your life you've wanted to be a teacher. After all, teaching is that occupation in which one can mold the minds of America's future citizens, in which one can challenge the world's leaders of tomorrow to hitherto unthought-of heights, in which one can . . . But the only inevitable which does not fit into this pattern is student teaching, a transitional per-iod in the life of the would-be teacher in which he is not sure whether he is student or teacher and harbors a suspicion that he is neither. Having received a student teaching assignment, one en-counters his first problem in the knowledge of subject matter. The astute individual soon learns to camouflage inadequate know-ledge by a retreat into erudite verbiage, or better yet, into a complex and un-answerable re-statement of the impertinent question. Even after all precautions have been taken, some students may Solomon and Sheba "Bethel" a "House of God" when the student body goes to a basket-ball game? Can we shout a "House of God" cheer during an oppon-ent's free throw? Must we stand up in our "House of God" sweat-shirts and call the referee a "blind idiot" because he calls a foul on our team? Will we forfeit our Christian testimony to taunt the opposing coach every time he gets off the bench; or to ridicule the baldness, skinniness or fatness of an oppos-ing player; or to scorn the star player of another team?

Last spring, we decided to seek the regional convention chair so that we could make a positive contribution in directing the organization. The recent convention was an attempt to translate our philosophy of what AAES should be into reality. A conscious effort was made to focus attention on some of the leading edges of consideration in the relating of our faith to con-temporary problems in science, philosophy and the contemporary scene. Re-hashing areas of agreement or considering matters that are a common experience to the major-ity of Christian students would have been less controversial, but also an inadequate justification for the existence of AAES. AAES must lead Christian student thought. In one respect we were not only presenting our philosophy of AAES, but our ideals for Christian liberal arts education and the contribution which Bethel has to make to the reali-zation of these ideals. Our expectations were gratified by an eager response to our pre-sentation. Whether we have chal-lenged and significantly effected the progress of AAES remains to be seen. • .5/ eAtg0f ,'/5*;9116t, (Photo by Ostrum) Human evolution was the subject of a discussion group led by Claude Stipe at the Midwest Regional convention of the AAES held on Bethel's campus last weekend.

SPAN, begun by a group of Uni-versity of Minnesota students in-terested in furthering international understanding, offers substantial monetary subsidy, eight semester credits, and travel and touring in a foreign country to those students recommended by their college and selected by a screening committee. THIS SUMMER, two Bethelites-a student and a faculty member��� will be going abroad for twelve weeks under the auspices of SPAN. Junior Joan McNaughton has been accepted as a member of the SPAN group traveling to Finland, while Spanish teacher Lilian Ryberg will serve as advisor to SPANers in Brazil. Joan's trip to Finland, leaving in late June, will be the cul-mination for her of many weeks of pre-study in Finnish culture, customs, and language. Her group meets frequently to acquaint themselves with the coun-try and its people, as well as to discuss American political beliefs, race problems, and other aspects of our culture in which Europeans would be likely to take interest. "MY SPECIFIC area of concen-tration," says Joan, "will be the Finnish theater, which is unique in that it is so highly organized and widely found throughout the country." Joan chose the theater arts rather than a more politically-oriented area of study because she feels that this cultural field affords her the best opportunity to learn about true Finnish life. She hopes to do extensive travel-ing within the country, research-ing her project and formulating impressions which she and the other SPANers will present in the form of a research paper when they return to Minnesota. NEXT YEAR, their presentations will help to solicit funds for next year's SPAN trips to Algeria, In-dia, Colombia, and Poland. "I'm very happy about this opportunity," claims Joan, "and wish that more Bethel students would take advantage of SPAN's aid program." Miss Ryberg echoes Joan in en-couraging those interested to see Dr. Walfred Peterson, SPAN ad-visor on campus. COMMENTING ON financial as-pects, she says, "Numerous scholar-ships and other aids are available to help students who want to go abroad but have money problems. SPAN is such a worthwhile project that I urge interested persons to investigate its possibilities."

Director of the Bureau of Educational Research at the U. of Minn., Dr. Torrance discussed as-pects of creativity and problems of being creative in this "computer age." Three specific developments in history have led to the greater utilization of man's capabilities; the alphabet, the printing press and the computer. THEIR COMING unleashed a cer-tain fear that man's mind would now deteriorate because man would not have to use his mem-ory. The human memory, however, was discovered to have limitation, and the development of the print-ing press enabled man to reach toward higher goals. In his closing analogue, Tor-rance clarified the place of the computer by illustrating that a person probing a question is sup-plied with information from the computer rather than from his own memory. Thus his thinking is free for creative imagination to work. Today there is a more favorable climate for expansion and explora-tion of creativity, for a far greater rate of technological change than ever before has contributed impli-cations of greater adaptation. IN PARTIALLY answering the question "will a more creative and humane type of education catch on?", Torrance touched on our "cummulative knowledge about man's creativity. He stated that al-though we have known that it is natural to learn by questioning, searching, still we have insisted than man learn by authority. "The overall evidence is that we have not gone very far in stimulating critical and creative thinking. To most teachers and parents the ideal pupil is cour-teous, polite, well-liked by peers, gets work in on time rather than being an independent, courag-eous thinker." Dr. Torrance continued with a discussion of the "forces that have made it difficult to be a whole creative person." We have been taught by authority; we face a struggle to obtain good grades; students are reluctant to take ad-vantage of self-iniated study; and we live in a "clock-orientated" cul-ture divided into fifty-minutes, weeks, semesters. FURTHERMORE, large areas of experience have been made off-limit or taboo. The most effective taboos are misplaced emphases such as calling sensitivity a femin-ine value and independence of mind a masculine virtue. Students assented to his re-mark that teachers and parents encourage us to be independent in thinking but not in judgment. They protect us from failure; they warn us not be fanatics but to be normal. Dr. Torrance encouraged us to "push on to creative solutions." "Not love alone, but creative thinking makes the world go round." The realization of this will make our age as John Glenn called it, "the age of imagination and inquiry."

The Royals lost the game 69-67. (Photo by Ostrum) Paul Anderson, shown here in a wrestler's favorite position, is well on the way to pinning his opponent from River Falls. It was his second pin in two starts. Despite Anderson's winning effort the visiting Falcons eventually won the match 18.15. Bethel, Jan. 29, ended a six game losing streak by outrunning North-western (Minn.) 81-74. The Royals then lost three straight close games to Northland, River Falls and Wah-peton before beating Morris. At Northwestern, Dave Peter-man and Roger Olson led Bethel's scoring attack with 21 and 20 points respectively. The Royals jumped to an early 10 point lead with Peterman scoring five straight push shots. The Eagles closed the gap to take a 43-40 halftime lead. BAJUNI EMI'S SHOOTING and floor play gave Bethel a 3 point lead early in the second half. Walt Green and Jim Carlson with 21 and 19 points respectively, led the Northwestern fast-break attack but were unable to contain the Royals balanced attack.

After the cries of "block that shuttle cock" had died away it was Bob Smith of the Barons who was ton top in this annual tournament. Runner-up in the individual standings was Carl Holmgren of the Dukes. First and second place teams were Barons and Knights, respectively. Squires managed to keep their slim hold on first place in the Captain Nelson Rates in Survey Jim Nelson, co-captain for last season's football team, has been selected to honorable mention full-back in both the Williamson and NAIA All-American rating surveys.

Finishing the season with a 102.8 yards-per-game rushing average, Nelson was rated eleventh in the nation in individual rushing by the NAIA. He has been re-elected co-captain for next year's team. 75-71 overtime defeat.

Jack Povaser and Bob Hammer each with 23 points led the North-land attack. The game was won on the foul line where Northland out-shot the Royals 31-15. River Falls handed Bethel their second straight defeat 69-67. Toby Carey and Don Lee with 20 and 17 points respectively led River Falls to a 37-30 halftime lead which the Royals could never overcome.

Final day of the tournament is Feb. 28, 5 p.m. Hockey Tea m Loses Second 7-3 to Park Bethel's hockey team suffered its second defeat of the season Friday night, losing to the Min-neapolis Park board team 7-3. Bethel's other loss came at the hands of this same team 5-2. Their one victory was against Alexander Ramsey high school. Bethel jumped to an early 1-0 lead on a quick goal by Craig Kronholm. The lead was short-lived, however, as Park board wasted no time in tying the score and going ahead 2-1. Doug Todd's goal knotted the score at 2-2. Park board quickly moved ahead again, never being seriously threatened from then on. The only other Bethel tally came on a surprise goal by Vince Bloom. Outstanding individual perform-ances were turned in by Craig Kronholm, Dick Young, Bob Smith and Jim Friberg. An unexpected number of peo-ple turned out to see the game, played in Aldrich arena. The hard driving, aggressive play of the Bethel team combined with occas-ional brilliance showed much po-tential. with 30 seconds left broke the Bethel press and gave the visitors a two point victory. Bethel suffered its third straight defeat 82-65 to Wahpe-ton on the victor's home court. Peterman and Moulton with 17 and 15 points respectively led the Royals to an early 18-8 lead but were unable to maintain it as Wahpeton led 42-36 at half-time. Bethel ended their three game losing skein by outshooting Morris 58-55 at Morris. George Palke and Lee Bajuniemi with 12 and 11 points respectively led the Royal scoring attack to a 34-29 halftime lead. Dennis Clausen's 19 points sparked a Morris comeback as they overtook Bethel 45-44 late in the second half. Peterman's layup re-captured the lead and enabled the Royals to gain their three point victory. Hamline 16-11, Improvement piers lost again. An experienced River Falls group won 18-15. Probably the most outstanding indication of Bethel's improvement could be seen in their match with Concordia on Feb. 8. Concordia won 23-13, the score differing con-siderably from the 34-0 defeat handed Bethel earlier this season by the same team. Points for Bethel came from Clothier and Paul Anderson, while Dischinger won on a for-feit. Paul Anderson is an exceptional wrestler and the team's most con-sistent winner. He has pinned three opponents in as many matches. Clothier and Gronau are steadily bettering themselves and proving to be valuable assets. O of .01 U • Sidelines by Bob Beckstrom In light of the current basketball season it would seem that a late-season fold would be in order for the Royal cagers. There are several reasons, however, why one would hesitate to forecast such a fold. One reason is that these final three games include two home games. In spite of the fact that Bethel fans have seen only one victory this season, the games have still been exciting and the Royals have lately played some inspired ball. Another reason for anticipating a thrilling final stretch is that one of the home games is with Northwestern. The traditional rivalry is nothing new to anybody at Bethel, and the recent clash in Northwestern's telephone booth foreshadows as exciting a sequel as any. And, of course, its being the Founders week game adds any further impetus necessary to make it an inspired effort. It is the one game of the year when everyone forgets about the rest of the season and comes out to see Bethel beat Northwestern. No one can write Bethel off in the Moorhead, Northwestern and Northland games. Moorhead, having a so-so season, will be hosting Augs-burg tonight and then traveling to Bethel Friday night. The men to watch are Don Wormager, a 5'9" guard who has been scoring in the twenties, and Jim Jahr, an all-region freshman from Alexandria. The hook shot specialist is also the Dragons' tallest man at 6'4". The B squad will play the Minnesota School of Business in the preliminary. Providing stiff opposition from Northwestern again will be Walt Green and Jim Carlson, both scoring around the twenty mark. Bethel, however, will have both Dave Peterman and Roger Olson, as well as Lee Bajuniemi and Phil Bolinder, who scored 19 points apiece against Northwestern. The final game against Northland should have no indication of late-season slump either. The Royals will have the incentive of both playing the final game of the season and avenging Northland's Sno- Daze overtime victory. A final reason for anticipating a good showing in Bethe'ls final three games is the outstanding improvement of individual players. Olson, getting 14 points against Northwestern (Ia.) and 20 against Northwestern (Minn.) and Phil Bolinder have improved tremendously under the boards. George Palke, sophomore transfer from Wheaton, and Don Moore have given added board strength. Loss of reserve guard Bill McCarrel with a twisted knee may hurt. Bajuniemi and Moore will also be playing on weakened ankles, but the team does not look ready to fold in the final stretch. Matmen Beat Show Steady by Don Allison Bethel's matmen, inexperienced as they are, made an impressive showing against Hamline, Michi-gan Tech, River Falls and Con-cordia in their most recent mat-ches. The Royals eased by Hamline 16-11 in a match seen prior to the B-team game on Feb. 2. Clothier, Gronau, Anderson and Hagfeldt were winners for Bethel. A superior Michigan Tech team leveled Bethel on Feb. 5, 30-7, the latter's only points corn-ing on a draw by Rodger Gronau and a pin by Paul Anderson.
