Next week is World Missions
week on Bethel's campus. With a
two-fold purpose—to inform and
to inspire—the week's theme is
"MISSIONS: In Spirit and in
Truth."
Although activities will continue
throughout the week, the empha-sis
will be placed on the chapel
service at 10 a.m. each day. In-formal
sessions at 3 p.m. will fea-ture
films shown in the student
center and evening sessions will
be held from 7-8 p.m. each night.
Chapel schedule includes a
film, a panel on non-professional
and specialized missions and a
communion service at which the
foreign students will appear in
native dress. Purpose of the com-munion
service is to furnish an
experience of "Oneness in
Christ." Two symposia, "The
Missionary Call" by missionaries
and students and "Missionary
Problems," are also scheduled for
chapel.
"Beyond the Bells" is one of the
films that will be shown at the in-formal
sessions during the coffee
hour at 3 p.m. It is the story of a
missionary child returning to the
field as an adult. By participating
in some of the native activities he
wins the confidence of the people.
Another film showing some of
our conference work is "Breaking
Barriers in Argentina." Al Gustaf-son,
conference missionary to
Argentina, will be present at this
time. Miss Nancy Dean, college
sophomore, will show slides of
Ethiopia on Thursday.
Evening session speakers in-clude
Gordon Anderson on Mon-day;
Karl Lachler on Tuesday;
Richard Varberg on Wednesday;
Franklin Nelson on Thursday;
and Dale Bjork on Friday. The
Friday evening service will be
in cooperation with the Twin
City churches.
Rev. Anderson has served as
pastor of several conference
churches. He left the Lakeside
Baptist church in Muskegon, Mich.,
to assume duties as executive sec-retary
of the board of home mis-sions
of the Baptist General con-ference.
Rev. and Mrs. Lachler have
been in Brazil since 1955 estab-lishing
churches, conducting
meetings and distributing tracts.
Rev. Lachler has been president
of the Brazil field council, while
Mrs. Lachler has written stories
in Portuguese for work with
children.
Presently on furlough, Rev.
and Mrs. Varberg have complet-ed
their first term as mission-

aries in the Philippine Islands.
They have been working with
the Tuburan Baptist church in
Cebu, which has grown from a
struggling mission to a self-sup-porting
church with its own
building, parsonage, Sunday
school building and cemetery.
Following two terms as mission-aries
in Burma, the Nelsons re-turned
to the United States. Rev.
Nelson served as pastor of the
Edgewater Baptist church in Min-neapolis
until called to become as-sociate
secretary of the board of
foreign missions of the Baptist
General conference. He now is ex-ecutive
secretary of the board.
Communism drove the Bjorks
from their missionary work in
China. After two years of deputa-tion
work they were re-assigned to
Japan. They served two terms
there before poor health forced
them to return home. Rev. Bjork
now serves as administrative as-sistant
to the secretary of foreign
missions.
Many of the missionaries will be
lecturing or participating in dis-cussions
in regularly scheduled
classes. Some of the topics include
the role of the missionary wife,
cultural shock and culture in the
Rev. Nelson Rev. Bjork
Philippines. Interviews will be ar-ranged
with the missionaries dur-ing
the afternoons.
Dr. Ivan J. Fahs, chairman of
the special weeks committee, says
that he hopes to make Bethel "sen-sitive
to world responsibility."
Students should ask themselves,
"Where does God want me?"
Nik Dag Brings
Original Play
"Plans for this year's Nik Dag
festivities are nearing completion,"
says sophomore class president
and committee chairman Vern
Lewis. Date for this special occas-sion
is Saturday, Nov. 23.
Main feature planned for the
evening is a play, written and
presented by members of the
sophomore class. Curtain time is
8 p.m. at the Bloomington high
school auditorium.
As is traditional during the in-termission,
there will be a judging
of the corsages made by the girls
for their dates. Student and fac-ulty
judges will be looking for
originality, cleverness and humor.
A cash prize will be awarded to
the winner.
Seminarians
Visit Chicago
Twenty-four Bethel seminary
seniors will board the train for
Chicago Friday. Guests of the
board of trustees of the Baptist
General conference for the week-end,
they will be accompanied by
dean of the seminary Edwin J.
Omark and Mrs. Omark.
On Saturday and Monday morn-ings
the men will participate in an
orientation program at conference
headquarters in Chicago. The head
of each of the seven boards of the
conference will present his work
to them in an effort to acquaint
graduating seniors with the pro-gram
of the conference.
On Sunday the men will partici-pate
in the services of Chicago
area conference churches. Some
will preach, while others will bring
special music or give a testimony.
The group will return to St. Paul
on Monday afternoon.

the CLARION Wednesday, November 6, 1963 LETTERS to the Editor:
Student Court Deserves
Senate Consideration
Through recent discussions with an administrative officer
at Hamline university, attention has been drawn to that insti-tution's
student judiciary system. An adaptation of their
court system, which is organized only in the dormitories, has
several good points to recommend itself to this campus.
A student judiciary is a logical institution for a campus
where students are granted a large measure of responsi-bility.
It would place increased emphasis on codes of con-duct
common to all students. Through trial by their school-mates
students could be given warnings without having
such a warning become part of their permanent record.
Appeals of decisions made by the election board, the pub-lications
board and the chartering board could be made to
the student court rather than to the student senate. Although
appeals have not been a major matter on any senate agenda,
such a move would free the senate from this responsibility.
A student court would necessarily be entirely separate
from the senate. In order that responsible members of the
court would be selected it would be best to form the court
through senate appointment. Student judges could be selected
for the duration of their association membership, hopefully
encouraging some carry-over from year to year. There could
be no other constitutional criterion for selection other than
association membership. Not more than five judges should
comprise the court.
Checks and balances could be erected between the sen-ate
and the court. Budget control could be continued under
the jurisdiction of the senate, while interpretation of the
constitution could pass to the student court. Appeals of deci-sions
by either body should be made only to the administra-tion.
Consideration of a student court should be a topic for
the student senate agenda. Even the rough, sketchy plan pre-sented
here holds several knotty problems, most obvious of
them being creation of the court through changes in the pre-sent
constitution. Careful consideration should be made of the
powers granted to the court. Its range of authority must be
explicitly defined at the outset. Bethel has an important area
of student government yet undeveloped.
Many Groups Offer Aid
Two articles offering funds for further education are
found on the front page of this paper. These are two among
several dozen such offers now in the student affairs office.
Lacking sufficient bulletin board space to display them all,
student affairs has made the information available upon re-quest
in its office.
In addition to this, the available grants, prizes, scholar-ships
and loans are being made known to department heads.
Student affairs is considering placing this information on
file in the library. Whenever space permits, the CLARION
will publish information about these aids.
All these efforts are aimed at making students more
aware of available opportunities. Virtually every field of study
has appealing post-graduate study offered with attractive as-sistance.
Such programs might well fit the plans of some cur-rent
students.
Courtesy is Always Proper
A small scolding is in order for those who were distract-ingly
late to the folk-singing concert last Thursday night. Their
noisy entrances during the ably-performed songs demonstrated
lack of thoughtfulness for both the singer and the audience.
The fact that a convocation is held in the college auditorium
does not suspend rules of etiquette. In the future both students
and faculty should plan their arrivals more courteously.
LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS
Nik Dag Has No Limits
Dear Editor,
There is a misunderstanding a-bout
the article on Nik Dag in the
Oct. 30 issue of the CLARION.
The problem centers around the
statement: "Nik Dag committee
has suggested a $6 maximum ex-penditure
for the girls."
For the fellows who interpreted
this to mean that the boy has to
pay any costs over $6 I can say
only one thing—forget it. But
more commonly this has been in-terpreted
to mean that the Nik
Dag committee is trying to force
a maximum expenditure on the
girls. This is wrong also.
This statement was directed to
the girl who had heard rumors of
lavish spending in the past and
felt she could not go because of
her financial status. The sum of
$6 was set up as a suggestion of
an adequate amount, not as a mini-mum
or a maximum.
Vern Lewis
Cut-offs Draw Comments
Dear Editor:
The article on the senate's dis-cussion
of the dress code which
appeared in the Oct. 30 edition of
the CLARION was most amusing.
However, to my chagrin, a small
part of the amusement was creat-ed
at my expense.
Mr. Patterson's caustic interpre-tation
and paraphrase of one of
my comments during the session
has misrepresented me and has
alienated me from my cut-off-wearing
friends.
To be attested by witnesses, I
present a more authentic version.
During the session, Roger Evans
(my fellow-extremist) commenting
on a lack of dress consciousness
among some students, said that
ideally he would like to see the
dress code abolished and be re-placed
by more student conscious-ness.
A freshman then commented
that the dress code was beneficial
in helping her determine her cam-pus
dress habits. In reference to
the remarks, I stated that "the
majority of students do follow the
dress code, and the dress tone of
the campus is not bad.
"Those that do wear cut-offs and
sweatshirts inappropriately were
exceptions who were fanatically
devoted to their dear cut-offs.
by Stan Olsen
A comprehensive look at the
cultural calendar of events for the
Twin Cities area reveals much
more than an average college stu-dent
can attend or afford. Several
events that will interest the bud-get-
minded student stand out. A-mong
the more outstanding are
the numerous art galleries in the
Cities.
The Minneapolis Institute of art
is always free and features collec-tions
of paintings from all the
periods of art. Especially empha-sized
are frescoes and tapestries
of the Renaissance period.
A general tour of the insti-tute's
collections will be conduct-ed
Sunday, Nov. 17, at 3 p.m.
Throughout November, free lec-tures
and films are scheduled.
For further information check
with the institute.
Walker Art center is offering a
special gallery tour of "The Stan-kiewiez—
Indiana exhibition" with
curator Jan Van der March, who
organized the show. This will be-gin
at 8:30 p.m. on Thursday.
This particular exhibition con-sists
of a two-man junk art show.
Stankiewiez is the country's fore-most
junk artist, and Robert In-
Only legislation would correct
them." I then expressed doubt
whether any action or legislation
is recommendable for the benefit
of only a few exceptions.
The clarifications I have made
will not depreciate the amusing
qualities of Patterson's article.
There is much sophistic satire re-maining
in the article . . . at the
expense of the senate's reputation
as a sensible governing body.
Daniel Martinez
Sorley Vindicates Senate
Dear Editor:
I wish to comment on the arti-cle
headed "Senate Scrutinizes
Cut-offs, Glosses Over Other Is-sues"
by J. David Patterson in the
Oct. 30 issue of the CLARION.
I think the title was inappro-priate.
Granted, it was intended as
an attention-getter, but it exag-gerated
the truth to the point of
becoming dishonest. The senate
did not "scrutinize" cut-offs — it
merely mentioned them along with
many other types of dress.
Neither did the senate "gloss
over other issues." Webster de-fines
to "gloss over" as meaning
to make appear right by spec-ious
argument or by minimiz-ing."
In no sense did the senate
attempt to make book-stealing,
cheating or plagiarism appear
right; it merely did not pursue
these problems at that meeting.
Roger Evans' main emphasis in
his first statement was not that
sportswear is not defined in the
code, but that the present code
says nothing about length or fit
of any kind of clothes, and that
this is where the biggest problem
lies.
June Erickson's question, accord-ing
to the minutes, was not "Does
the student senate have the power
to enforce a dress code?", but "Do
we want to enforce it?" At any
rate, the senate does have the
power to penalize dress code vio-lations
if they decide to exercise
it. (Patterson didn't think so.) Her
question was partly answered in
the discussion that followed—not
"quickly dismissed without con-sideration,"
as Patterson claimed.
Evans said that IDEALLY he
would like to see the code
diana is one of America's out
standing sign painters.

this important word in the arti-cle
left the reader with a differ-ent
impression.
Patterson has been assigned the
job of reporter at all senate meet-ings.
His articles in the CLARION
are read by the students, faculty,
administration, alumni and others.
Is it unreasonable to expect a fair
and accurate report?
Bob Sorley
Library Misses Article
Dear Editor,
It's missing!!! Someone must
have taken it; but who (or what)
or where or why?
I'm referring, of course, to the
inside story about that tanned,
French surf enthusiast featured on
the cover of a recent issue of Life
—the story which was neatly torn
from the library's only copy of
that magazine.
Such action suggests the work
of one of two culprits: Either the
act was committed by a maladjust-ed
or frustrated individual, or else
the campus is feeling the heavy
hand of a self-imposed, uninvited
censor.
Now, if the latter be the case,
one can only hope that this person
will seek official channels the next
time he makes an attempt to pre-serve
the purity of campus read-ers.
Imagine, if you will, what one
such person might do to one vol-ume
of National Geographic alone!
And, if perchance, the article
was filched by some deprived (or
depraved) student, one can only
wonder at the caliber of a culprit
who would take only the article,
when the cover nearly outsripped
anything else that followed.

Editor's note : A library off i-cial,
confirming this report,
has asked the CLARION to re-mind
students that clippings
taken from periodicals and
pages torn from books not only
inconvenience library patrons
and involve high replacement
costs for the school, but they
also destroy the reference value

Two Religious Plays
Offer DifferentViews
by Dan Martinez
During the last two weeks, two
religious plays have been pre-sented
to Bethel audiences. The
Royal players performed a cutting
of Dear Wormwood, James For-syth's
misadaptation of C. S. Lewis'
Screwtape Letters. Last Friday
Theater On-the-road performed A
Sleep of Prisoners by English play-wright
Christopher Fry.
While reading Screwtape Letters
we are aware of a desperate strug-gle
between "our Father below"
and "the Enemy above," and the
crises of people in their moments
of decision.
However, during the perform-ance
of DEAR WORMWOOD we
were aware only of the subtlety,
sensibility And idiosyncracies of
the contemporary fiend and the
stereotyped, undramatic tone of
the humans involved. Reflections
on the play produces nostalgia
for the spiritual impact of
SCREWTAPE LETTERS and a
chuckle or two over that crazy-mixed-
up fiend and his domin-eering
uncle.
In A Sleep of Prisoners, Fry re-designed
tthe biblical stories of
Adam and his sons; David and
Absalom; Abraham and Isaac; and
Shadrac, Meshac and Abednego.
They are drawn together in a con-temporary
psychological plot in
which the values of good and evil;
love and strife; honesty and self-deception
are presented in dreams
as the living issues in the sleeping
lives of men.
vival of the style of the medieval
morality plays in which all facets
of daily living are presented. Me-dieval
audiences reconciled the ri-diculous
with the sublime, the
comic with the tragic, and the
secular with the spiritual.
However, the modern audience
has not made this synthesis. To
our audiences, the ridiculous,
comic and secular have a conno-tation
antithetical to the sublime,
tragic and spiritual. Very few mo-dern
morality plays achieve their
intended spiritual goals.
In his play, Fry employed the
psychological plot, an excellent
means for the modern audience
and for the contemporary church
militant. The psychological plot
stretches beneath the superfic-ialities
of violent cursing or a
pub drinking scene.
In our evangelical orthodox con-text
we cannot be completely sat-isfied
with either of the plays, al-though
Fry exposed more truth in
a more effective manner. The re-sult
is frustration on our part
about the sterility of drama in our
unique faith.

Wednesday, November 6, 1963
by John Halvorsen
You've all seen him gallavant-ing
around campus, on the basket-ball
court, or down the intramural
football field. He drives a 1962
Buick Skylark. To most of us he's
known either as Dr. Wessel's nep-hew
, the fellow that goes with Teri
Mounce or that $70,000 "bonus
baby" with the St. Louis Cardinals.
It is only logical to begin an in-troduction
at home. "Well," he
drawls, "I'm from Anaheim, Calif.,
thirty miles south of Los Angeles,
right next door to Disneyland."
Next logical question to pose
to a major league baseball play-er
would be, "How did you get
started in this game?" Clint is a
product of boys' league baseball.
He started at the age of eleven,
and his amateur status culmin-ated
with his best years on the
Anaheim high school team and
with the American legion sys-tem.
All through his baseball exper-ience,
Clint has been a pitcher.
At seventeen he was signed by the
St. Louis Cardinals of the National
league for $70,000.
That was four years ago. In the
years intervening, Clint has pitch-ed
for Tulsa, Okla., of the Texas
league and Portland, Ore., of the
Pacific Coast league. He has been
hampered in his career by a bad
arm. But even with this setback
he has compiled an even 32-32 won-lost
record.
Clint shares the dream and de-sire
of every minor leaguer—to
some day make it in the big
leagues. He recalls his biggest
thrill as being able to pitch a-the
CLARION Page 3
gainst the Cincinnatti Redlegs
and Joey Jay, realizing that he
had the ability to put the ball
past major leaguers.
He's up for the draft this year,
which means that on Friday and
Saturday of this week any team
in the major leagues can take him.
Just where will he end up in Feb-ruary
when he leaves Bethel for
spring training? That remains to
be seen. Clint hopes he'll end up
with St. Louis. He would really
like another chance to make it
with the Cardinals.
However, no matter where he
plays, he'll never forget what Stan
Musial told him. "There's only one
place to play, Clint, and that's in
the majors."
Where will circumstances find
Clint after his baseball career
has ended? The answer to this
question answers in part the
reason why Clint came to Bethel.
Clint came not knowing exactly
what the Lord had planned for
his life, but earnestly seeking
His leading.
Clint accepted Christ at the age
of eleven, and for him this was a
positive experience in his life. It
was so positive that when he was
asked when he replied, "It was
June 7, 1953—I'll never forget that
day as long as I live."
Clint's at Bethel now, but he'll
be leaving in February. Will he
return? Another positive yes. Why?
First of all, "Bethel is a place
where one can meet God and be
responsive to His leading." Sec-ondly,
"Here you can really feel
down-and-out, but there's always
someone there to smile."

Gridders Win 47412,
End Season Saturday
I don't particularly envy newly appointed wrestling coach Dean
Gilland in his first year at Bethel. He is faced with the responsibility
of building a squad almost from scratch. Roger Gronau is the only re-turning
letterman from last year's team. Not especially encouraging is
the fact that many of the men have only a minimum of experience or
none at all.
There is a brighter side, however. The number of team members
so far totals 15, the largest number of men to report out in Bethel's
three year wrestling history.
Potential grapplers include Dennis Blomgren, Keith Davis, John
Dickau, Ron Harris, Norman Holmberg, Curt Johnson, Doug King, LeRoy
Nelson, Dave Norman, Jerry Olson, J. David Patterson, Wendell Plucker,
Bob Sundquist and Everette Wilkinson.
I was impressed, as I'm sure everyone was, with the appearance
of Hubert the nameless lion at the homecoming game. My fears and
anxieties were relieved when I saw that Hubert wasn't the cheap, sleezy
lion that I had pictured in my head before the game. Hubert definitely
has class, but still no name.
While I'm on the subject of homecoming, I would like to say a
couple of words about a subject which is near and dear to the hearts
of us all . . . audience response (which is a nice, non-offending name
for school spirit). One word will do nicely. Sick! The team deserved
much more than we gave them.
Don't get all broken up about it. You will have one more chance,
come Saturday, to show the football team that you're impressed with
their play. Come to the game Saturday and make loud noises. I dare you.

Bethel rolled to its third straight
victory Friday night 47-12 over
Wahpeton School of Science. The
offensive total of 47 points estab-lishes
a new school scoring re-cord.
The old record (46) was set
earlier this year against Morris.
The offensive splurge was match-ed
by an equally effective defense
which allowed only nine yards
rushing and two first downs the
entire game.
Jim Nelson opened the scoring
on a one-yard plunge early in the
first period. Nelson scored again
later in the quarter on a two-yard
plunge for his fifth touch-down
in his last five quarters of
action. Don Land ran the extra
point and Bethel led 13-0 at the
end of the first quarter.
Bethel scored twice more in
the second quarter before Wah-peton
was able to tally. Strickler
hit Duane Gibson on a 37-yard
pass play for the first one. Min-utes
later Don Land added three
more yards to his 118 yard total
and scored again.
Before the half ended Wahpe-ton
scored their two touchdowns.
The first came on a short plunge,
and the second on a 70 yard pass
play. Neither kick was good and
Wahpeton was done scoring for
the game. The score at the half
was Bethel 27, Wahpeton 12.
Royals came out hard in the
second half with Land scoring
from six yards out. Land also add-ed
the point on a run. Later in
the period fullback Stan Miller
tore through the line for 31 yards
and another score. Don Strickler
kicked the point after touchdown.
Bethel added the final touch
to its masterpiece with a long
drive and score in the final per-iod.
Strickler scored the touch-down
on a keeper from four
yards out. Vince Bloom's try for
the point just missed.
Total offense for the Royal's was
507 yards and 25 first downs. Wah-peton
was able to muster only 80
yards total, 70 of that on one
touchdown play. To date, Bethel's
offense has rolled up 210 points in
seven games and the defense has
allowed opponents 80.

Four runners broke Bethel's
Como park course record as Mac-alester
scored a 19-36 victory over
the Royals last Saturday. The for-mer
record of 18:48 was set by
Winona State's Tom Gale Oct. 5.
Stanbury or iviacaiester finished
first as he circled the course in
18:40. Smith and Gibas, Macales-ter's
second and third runners, fol-lowed
Stanbury with times of 18:44
and 18:45 respectively.
Dale Rogers, Bethel's first fin-isher,
captured fourth place one
second behind Gibas. Rogers took
the lead at the start of the race
and held it for the first three laps
but was edged by the three Mac-alester
runners at the finish.
Roger's 18:46 not only broke the
course record by 2 seconds but
broke his former Bethel record of
19:20 by 34 seconds. This was the
fourth home meet in a row that
Roger has either tied or set a new
record.
Dale Pearson cut 31 seconds off
his previous course time to finish
fifth with a time of 19:23. Ogle
and King of Macalester captured
sixth and seventh places with times
of 19:44 and 19:57.
Ken Haniwalt sprinted the last
100 yards but was unable to catch
Macalester's King and finished
eighth in 19:58. Bill Carlson, Rich
Halbeck and Riley Combs captur-ed
ninth, tenth and eleventh places
respectively.
Thompson of Macalester finished
twelfth with a time of 21:33. Gus-tafson,
an unattached runner from
Macalester circled the course in
18:54, which would have placed
him fifth.
Next week the Royals will par-ticipate
in the Northwest Open
number two. The race, sponsored
by the University of Minnesota,
will be run next Saturday at 11
a.m. around Lake Nokomis.
Last year's Northwest Open in-cluded
such schools as Carleton,
Macalester, Gustavus, River Falls
and the University freshmen. Fu-ture
meets for the Royal harriers
include the Amateur Athletic Un-ion
(AAU) six-mile race on Nov.
14 and the National Association of
Intercollegiate Athletics' (NAIA)
championship in Omaha on Nov.
30.

Saturday the Jesters handed the
Seminary their first defeat of the
season 27-0. The game was close
during the first half, and the score
was only 6-0 at halftime. But
tough defense and a good offense
were too much for the seminar-ians.
Jim Austin, Dave Buck, Bruce
Erickson and Gene Peterson scor-ed
for the Jesters. Clint Stark and
Dave Sprague were the defensive
standouts. The win clinched at
least a tie for the championship
for the Jesters, who have only one
more game to play.
In other games Saturday, the
Dukes beat the Barons 21-12 and
the Peasants whalloped the Counts
46-0. For the Dukes, the closest
game of the day, Jim Friberg
scored twice on runs and Ken
Headlee scored on a pass from
Friberg.
Operating without the services
of quarterback Bob Beckstrom, the
Counts could not make their of-fense
move. The Peasants turned
several interceptions into touch-downs
as Denny Port led the way.
He passed for three tallies and
ran an interception back for an-other.
In the only other game of the
day, the Squires bowed to the
Knights by forfeit.
Intramural football action ends
next Saturday. A short break pre-cedes
the intramural basketball
season. Also on the intramural
agenda is a mixed doubles badmin-ton
tournament. Fellows from the
various teams select a girl to com-pete
with them in the tournament.
