WERNER SPIEGEL Scholar THE scholastic honors of the class of 1939 were attained by Werner Spiegel, who had an average of 2.39. Mr. Spiegel was president of his class in his Junior year, and showed himself to be an excellent leader in all fields of endeavor. The person chosen by the class of 1939 to be their spokesman was Wendell Tjon. Mr. Tjon, though at Augsburg only two years, made himself an indis- pensable member of the student lxxly. Music was Mr. Tjon’s main interest at Augsburg, and he was a member of the College Choir, the Rand, and the Augsburg Octette. In his speech, “Forging Ahead,” Mr. Tjon stated that if Christ is a constant companion, the potentialities which lie within every man can be converted into real forging ahead.
