AUGSBURG IAN 1971-1972 Augsburg College Minneapolis, Minnesota Volume41 Foreword This 1972 AUGSBURGIAN was conceived and designed to be a book that represents a departure from the style and content of past volumes produced at Ausburg College. While other books have sometimes lacked a central purpose, or perhaps become ovcrly- concious of achieving a mountain-moving impact, the purpose of this book, simply, is to present a record of what happened here at Augsburg College from September, 1971, through May. 1972. The editors of this book are more comfortable being journalists rather than philosophers, so we constantly asked ourselves the question. What will the reader think?” when wc considered photographs, stories, and page make-up. The emphasis was always on reader- interpretation. As a result, we hope that you, the reader, will take the time to give this AUGSBURGIAN some thought: you will Ik the philosophers. Enjoy the book!

By the time McGovern reached the Augsburg campus that rainy night in early au- tumn. his pre-convention campaign was in high gear. McGovern was running hard. And late I've lost ten pounds since last spring.” he said after arriving at Melby Hall fifteen minutes behind schedule. Some speculated that he was too late. McGovern's supporters, including in one way or another at that time, Augsburg students Nancy Voss, Bruce Carlson and Tom Snell, said ticket-sales went well: and the Augsburg Echo article published two weeks later reported about $8000 was raised, lending substance to the widely-reported attendance figure of nearly four thousand.” But just after the event there was a rumor that tickets were given away at the last minute in the College Center to pas- sersby. Probably to fill up the gym and make the Senator feel good, spcculaiedoneof McGovern's more fatuous Augs- burg followers when asked later if the story was true. If tic- kets were handed out gratis, to fill up the gymnasium, it was lor the benefit of the media. Television crews from all the major networks were on hand, a first at Augsburg, filming the event. Also there were newsmen from on and off campus. Plainly, the Senator from South Dakota was making his bid both to the students and the newsmen with an able team be- hind him. Sam Lay’s Blues Revival and The Sorry Muthas,” played furiously, whipping up the crowd. As they per- formed, McGovern’s Augsburg supporters, who had first approached McGovern’s team during that summer’s state fair about appearing at the school gym free of charge, were eclipsed by the senator’s own ratpack. On the average, they were young, earnest and modish in their dress (rather than simply shaggy). Scurring about nervously, they sorted out the tangled snarls of the usual last minute crises while the crowd gathered. What? There aren’t ANY telephones! one distraught young woman wailed when told that a re- porter wishing to call off campus would have to dial out through the campus switchboard. ■ C««f Out And M ci 2 T0K GEORGE MCGOVERN •(VCfIT COSCfHT BOTTOM LI; FT: In u sheltering 85° Si Melby Hall, presidential hopeful Senator George McGovern (D.-S.Dak.) fielded questions from the audience about his 1972 campaign platform. TOP RIGHT: One of McGovern's Auggic supporters thumbtacks a handbill to a tree announcing the rally. BOTTOM RIGHT: Sen. McGovern, hot and tired after descending from the platform, manages a friendly smile as he doles out autographs for his fans. There was the usual round of admiring, anecdotal (“I knew George McGovern when and sometimes tiresome testimonials from such miscellaneous per- sonalities as Westerman and Donald Peterson, a Wisconsin State Democratic Committeeman. Another introductory speaker was Caroline Taylor, making her pitch for the Minnesota Welfare Rights Or- ganization. Finally, a Hollywood celebrity, whose function one among the bleachers crowd described as sort of like John the Baptist —seemed to have trouble talking. Warren Beatty hemmed and hawed and then said he didn't know what to say, before he finally introduced McGovern. Then there was a lag; and then, a rush of excitement ran through the crowd in the bleachers and onto the gym floor, with many people gazing reverently in the wrong direction, as the Senator finally entered the gym from the south court entrance. This was the big mo- ment. not so much for George McGovern as for his Augsburg followers who crowded 'round the Great Man for his walk to the speaker's stand. Senator McGovern himself was neither wild-eyed nor raving. But he was articulate, both in his short speech and in the question-answer period following, even when he avoided answering some questions outright; one of the audience wanted to know if McGovern was elected president, whether he would rescind the federal order presently forbidding employment of homosexuals by the government. McGovern said in reply that he was opposed personally to discrimination against any mi- nority. The Senator spoke against the war in Vietnam, about domestic issues, and said if necessary, he would sell weapons to the Israelis—this last item caused a minor ripple of dissatisfaction among some anti-war people in the audience. McGovern appealed to the gathering to join with me to build a society we can be proud of here in the United States. In appearance and manner, George McGovern was reminiscent of McCarthy; both men seemingly epit- omize something of the vaguely fatherly, somewhat with-it image younger people just lcft-of-ccnter have been seeking in their politicians ever since Camclot. Many seemed to like what they heard, and McGovern pins were worn alongside Vance Hartke buttons after the Indiana Senator passed through later in the season. There were the predictable objections, of course, to McGovern's chances and his stands on some issues. Dr. Myles C. Stenshoel of the Political Science De- partment expressed concern whether the senator could take the convention, McGovern seems to be gathering a strong locus of support lcft-of-ccnter, going on to observe that such candidates traditionally have never managed to take the middle, the crucial bloc of supporters, in the primaries. Gordon Nelson of the Sociology Department, felt that McGovern's cam- paign was being used by local DFL groups in power plays of their own. Among students, Mike Nelson, chairman of the Campus Republican Club, said that he objected to giving added military aid to Israel, which he de- scribed as undemocratic and as a theocracy. Tom Snell also responded to this issue negatively, and he later added that while McGovern supported the No- vember sixth anti-war demonstration, the senator referred to some of the protesters as a bunch of crazies . In a comic moment of rancor, Snell also accused the senator of wearing eyeshadow, but mod- erated somewhat when told make-up is an occupational necessity for politicians capering under the warm glow of television spotlights. McGovern spoke to a variety of concerns, in a way calculated to appeal to all. and predictably he did not succeed in pleasing everyone. In his wake, there was the usual furor of speculation, just who would succeed in winning the democratic nomination in ’72? And, more importantly, who would be the next Pres- ident of the United States? 11 Oscar Tells All.. . Rapping With the President EDITORS NOTE: ihe AUGSBURG I AN owes a vote of thanks to President Anderson for helping make this article possible. Thanks. Also, an “A” for effort is given to a staff member, wish- ing to remain anonymous, who, fighting a battle with a faulty tape recorder, made two trips to in- terview Anderson and complete this story, which is an unedited, word-for-word conversation. Questions by the AUGSBURG IAN staff Answers by Pres. Oscar Anderson Q: I hate to go through it all again. A: So do I. Q: What is the earliest thing that you remember in your life? A: Well. I don't know what I told you last time, but I guess it was vacationing with my family on a little island out on Puget Sound. All I can remember is that we had a dog. and it was the only dog we ever had. and the dog's name was Pogie. That's about the earliest recollection I think I have. Q: When did the words Augsburg College first become a part of your vocabulary? A: Well. I lived in the cities here, so 1 knew about Augsburg College, which at that time had both a high school and a seminary connected with it. and when I was in high school I remember debating against a debate team from Augs- burg prep school or the Academy as it was called, so I would imagine that one could say back in high school days. Q: What similarities do you see between yourself as a college student when you were and students at Augsburg? A: You mean my own experience as a college student and the students today? Q: Yes. A: Well I suppose that one of the things that was of tremen- dous concern to us back in the depression when I went to college was the problem of money. How to finance your education is a common denominator between the students of my day and the students today. I think there was a sense also at that time of a world-wide depression and there's no doubt that had a great deal to say to our own outlook on things, while the problems of that time were very simple compared to those today: nevertheless, there was a pervasiveness about that particular economic crisis that had a marked effect on the way in which we looked at things. Q: Do you think students are more optimistic today? A: I think they're less optimistic today. I think they tend to be more discouraged, somewhat dispairing because of the complexity and massiveness of the problems and be- cause of certain disillusionmcnts. In the depression we were still sure that if we really tightened our belts and went to work somehow or other we'd survive and we'd make it. We still carried what some people call the old American Dream and I guess somehow or other we managed. I think this comes out very definitely in a book that I’ve been reading entitled HARD TIMES by Eric Turkle. in which he interviews people who lived through the de- pression. In the depression there was no attempt to blame anybody else. Everybody kind of took the blame for him- self and figured he was gonna have to find his own way out of the hole into which we had fallen. Q: What kind of a school did you go to when you were in the elementary grades? A: I started school at a grade school in St. Paul, in what is known as St. Anthony Park. It was a very old building—I understand it was condemned at the time and it stood for another 25 years after that but it was a school that served the community that surrounds the University-St. Paul campus and the Luther Seminary campus, and it was a very interesting community and a very interesting school. I remember my first grade teacher very well because there were a lot of people that had her over her 40 or 50 year tenure as a first grade teacher in St. Anthony Park School. It started out as Murray School, was changed to Gun- nerson School, and its subsequent school, a new one. now is the St. Anthony Park Elementary School. Q: Did you ever play hooky? A: 1 don't recall that I ever did. I am sure that I was tempted to. Q: I think everybody is. What was your favorite subject in high school? A: In high school I think I developed my real interest in his- and so I don't recall too much stringency at that time. tory, and that became my major in college. I've had a number of rather able and interesting and provocative history teachers and this even began in high school. Q: You don’t really need curfews then. A: Well. I don't think under those circumstances. I guess 1 didn't go out that much at night so maybe I didn't need any fence like that. Q: What do you remember about your first date? A: My first date? Q: Yes. A: I'm afraid I can’t remember anything about it. I guess I told you last time one of the outstanding dates that I re- member in high school was the fact that I took my first airplane ride with a girl and another couple in a Ford Tri- motor over Minneapolis and St. Paul. It was the first time I'd ever been up in an airplane, l ive bucks apiece. The other fella paid the way 1 couldn't afford it. Q: Were you involved in any sports in high school? A: I only went out for one interscholastic sport and that was tennis and I wasn’t very successful at that. The extra- curricular work I was engaged in most of the time had to do with forensics, oratory and debate. Q: Were you pretty involved in that then? A: Yes. Q: Did that take quite a bit of your time? A: Yes it did. We put a lot into it in oratorical contests and also quite a bit of debate work. We couldn't travel very much in those days but we did manage to take on some other schools. Q: What did you do in your lime outside of high school and outside of debate t hen? A: Well. I don’t know just how to put that. I remember hav- ing to do a great deal with respect to my family. My fa- there was ill during the time I was in high school. All the time I was a senior he was a patient at Fairview Hospital and I always left school when my day was over and when my other activities were completed and look a streetcar to Fairview Hospital and spent hours with him and then took the streetcar ride, with two transfers, home to St. Paul. Q: Did you work at all during high school? A: Here and there, spasmodically. It wasn't as easy for youngsters that age to find jobs during the depression, but here and there a job now and then. Q: How big was your graduating class from high school? A: I don’t really recall. I think we must have numbered around 40. 45. something like that. I graduated from Min- nehaha Academy, so it was a smaller, private school. Q: Did you have a curfew in high school? A: I can't recall that I did. I guess it was an understanding that 1 should be in at a decent hour, but there were some times when it wasn’t quite that: but I had a pretty good relationship with my parents at that point. They kinda knew what I was doing, and I was willing to tell them. Q: That was about the best date. A: That's right. That's one I can remember. Q: What was your favorite story? A: Do you mean humorous story, or story out of a book or what? Q: Story out of a book or radio. A: Well, my father had a couple of books by a humorist named Strickland Gilleland and I used to love to hear him read stories out of those books, particularly one story that had to do with a fella's experience waiting for a train that was late and his experience in trying to get into a sleeping berth in this particular train it was a very humorous thing. It didn't have any particular point it was a series of absurd situations described in a very com- ical manner and we just used to love to listen to this in fact I memorized it once and used it as a exercise in elocu- tion. It was about 8 or 10 pages long. Q: Did you listen to the radio a lot ? A: We did listen to the radio a lot that was the chief past- time in those days. It started out in the early 20’s by try- ing to see how far away you could tunc in. It was called DX'ing and later on you had your favorite heroes, .lack Armstrong and all the rest, but during the 20’s and 30’s that was a tremendous way to get at the outside world and 13 to be entertained. Q: What was your favorite radio program? A: Well, there was a fellow by the name of Henry Berbig on the Sec-0 Program that had a whole series of dialect readings that I always thought were great - I remember sending in for them and getting them. They were take- offs on fables and stories. That was one program. Another program that I remember very well was the “Eddie Can- tor Program.” But I suppose the one that everybody listened to was “Amos ‘n’ Andy.” Couldn't go to bed with- out listening to “Amos V Andy. Q: Do you think there are different kinds of college presi- dents? And what kind would you say you arc? A: Well. I guess there are. Are you saying different kinds of of college presidents then and now or now? Q: Now. A: Well, I guess there are. as there are different individuals and different styles of operating. My background is not in the academic world and therefore 1 may tend to operate differently than somebody who comes out of that back- ground. That may be bad, may be good, but I’ve always tried to operate with the principle that it's people that you serve, and people must be listened to and involved, and a part of the whole thing. 1 know that I have a tendency to sound authoritarian but 1 try not to be: I just think there's a tremendous job to be done and I guess I’m a little im- patient sometimes to get it done, but you can’t do this at the expense of other people, so I’ve always tried to take a team approach to things and not to simply operate from an autocratic stance. Q: What do you think of more student participation in plan- ning? A: Well. I always think this is important because the greatest unused resource around the college, of course, are the stu- dents and you can get a tremendous amount of informa- tion. valuable input, and imagination from students. I think that their input has to be at the level of their ex- perience and maturity, but it’s nonetheless just as valu- able as other people’s and I think that there arc numbers of examples of this. I think of the tremendous student input that went into the building of the Tower and the Center. I think of the student input that has gone into the planning of our apartment tower and I think the student input in the Strap Council this year has been very, very important. I think we’ve got to try and meld the various segments of the community and operate as colleagues and not in any kind of conflict. Q: Do you think there’s effective lines of communications between students and you? A: Communications is never as effective as it ought to be. Most of your problems arise out of lack of communica- tion. An I don’t think that there’s a lack of desire to com- municate. I think sometimes there’s a breakdown in the awareness of the importance of communication. Com- munication takes time, and when you don’t have a lot of time you tend to make the decisions and move on to some- thing else, forgetting somebody ought to know about this, and when you think about that, there’s always somebody you miss and the one that you miss usually creates the problem because he didn’t know about it. So I think it all goes back to developing a kind of mind set where you constantly say to yourself ‘who’s affected by this.’ and (who ought to know about this,’ ’who cares to know about this,’ and in that way get understanding. I feel that every time I have really honestly tried to communi rate a situation, a problem or a decision to a group of stu Jems, their level of maturity and understanding always astounds me. They understand a lot better than the people my own age. Q: I think that college students sometimes can have a pretty open mind but then again other times... A: Well. I guess in that way they’re no different than any- body else. But I suppose we would be failing miserably in our efforts here if we didn’t try to or didn’t succeed in getting people to open their minds. In other words, if we’re dealing with closedminded people then we’re in the wrong place or not getting the job done. U Q: How did you get to become President of Augsburg? A: That sometimes is a question in my own mind. I’m not sure: 1 was visited by a committee of regents looking lor a president this was over nine years ago I’m sure that they had some prerequisites in mind. They wanted some- body who understood the changes that were taking place at Augsburg in terms of its relationship to the church. They probably wanted somebody that had had some previous connection with the college. And I did at- tend here. I was conversant with the church and with the community and I had some exposure to academic problems, and so on. by virture of my associations in Moorhead. So I guess it was just a matter of the com- mittee deciding that I had had the sufficient experience and background and that my philosophy would fit the goals and objectives of the college and they asked me to come dow n. Q: Your academic background was St. Olaf. wasn’t it? A: I have a degree from St. Olaf. because I completed my college work down there, after two years here. My family came out of a Lutheran background that had St. Olaf as its college: one of its colleges. And my father had at- tended there and there was always kind of a desire to finish down there. It was partly because of depression circumstances that I wasn’t able to go away from home the first two years. I was very happy that I came here to Augsburg because I had some tremendous teachers and some fine contacts and a great experience here but I think when you go to two schools, you have that many more contacts. Q: Did you commute to Augsburg? A: Yes. I lived over in St. Anthony Park and took the long streetcar ride and transfer downtown, and sometimes transfer twice if you didn't catch the right car. then you always had to take another transfer. It was a long, la- borious ride. It took about an hour every day each way. You stayed here all the time and worked in the library and then did your college job. The job I had to help me through school had to be taken care of sometime during the school day, and so you had to go to school and do the job and go back to class. Q: What was your job at Augsburg? A: Well, I had two jobs. The first year I washed the walls in Old Main that was quite a job and this was under what was known as the National Youth Administration, which was he form of financial aid that was in effect during the depression. The government said the student can take a job on campus for 35 c an hour and then his time card can be turned into the federal agency and the agency will pay the college that amount of money. I never saw the money —it went directly to the treasurer’s office. That way we paid the tuition which was at that time 25 dollars a quarter. The other job I got the second year I was here was transcribing music for the choral director here. That was a very interesting job. lie had a lot of things he want- ed transcribed and that he wanted duplicated and so on. And I did a lot of work like that. It became a very in- teresting job. I wonder sometimes w here those things that I did are now filed, because the music director at that time was Henry Opscih. and I did a lot of work for him. and whenever I came back on campus years later, he’d always go to the file and pull those things out that I had done for him. And I often wonder w hat became of them. Q: Do you think maybe that they're still around? A: Could very very well be Sateren might know where they are. Q: Well. I think that does it. A: Do you think that does it? Q: I think that does it. A: Well. okay... 15 A New Program for Augsburg Here We Go With 4-1-4 “Unity, be it political or educational, while encouraging creativity and power, need not. paradoxically, destroy indi- viduality and uniqueness.” The preceding comment was made by Dr. F. Mark Davis in reference to Augsburg's recent decision to adopt the 4-1-4 calendar starting September. 1972. The change will promote unity among the five private colleges in the Twin Cities area, in that each school will be on the 4-1-4 calendar, encouraging a greater reciprocity between the schools. Students will be able to take courses at any of the schools, which means to each school a more effective and efficient use of professors and resources avail- able, students will have a greater opportunity to explore and develop their own creativity, an extremely important value of a college education. As Davis said, this unity need not rob each college, nor each student, of their respective individuality and unique- ness. Each institution will have its own professors and stu- dents, in itself making the school unique and totally unlike any other college. Working together, the people here can use these new resources to help Augsburg continue as a first- rate college. By adopting the new calendar, the faculty hopes to achieve three goals, “greater cooperation with the St. Paul private colleges,” Davis explained greater opportunity for ed- ucational experimentation and adaptation, and greater pos- sibilities for institutional distinctiveness. What exactly is this new 4-1 -4 system? It consists of 15 weeks of four classes in the fall semester, one course for four weeks in January (interim), and four courses for fifteen weeks during spring semester. Classes will meet for cither three sixty-minute sessions, or two ninty- mrnute sessions each week. With the new system come new general education re- quirements. They are: 1. Three courses in religion. 2. Liberal Arts: a. A course from at least two of the following: literature: philosophy; art or music; speech or drama. b. A course from at least two of the following depart- 16 1 U GUSTAFSON H.C.3950001 RADICALS.PAST «. PRES ' T ARR. 4 il VUPi r mcnts: biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics, psychol- ogy- c. A course from one or two of the following depart- ments: economics, history, political science, sociology; and one or two courses from the Foreign Language Department to make a total of three courses in these five departments. 3. One urban emphasis course. 4. Two semesters of recreational activities or, one semester of recreational activities plus demonstrated proficiency in one or two sports. 5. A course in writing or demonstrated proficiency in writing. A student enrolled at Augsburg before fall, 1972, may stay under the former requirements or switch to the new ones under 4-1-4. A major in a specific field will consist of 8-10 classes, and a minor will be 5 courses in a department. Along with the general education requirement of 11 courses and the various classes in a specific major or minor a student is left to choose from six to eight electives. The change to 4-1-4 has prompted the expression of both advantages and disadvantages: Two important advantages are that 4-1-4 will make trans- fer to and from Augsburg easier, and that it will almost assuredly be an asset to the new student recruiting program since, according to Dr. Davis, “4-1-4 attracts more in- quiries and interest from potential students than any other calendar. One advantage commonly stated by students and faculty is the opportunity for students to concentrate on just one course during the interim. The schedule will be intensive, but the student can devote all of his time to just that course. Also, interim provides a change of pace, and an opportunity for the student to take a course of special interest to him. In addition to classes offered at the college, groups of stu- dents will be able to travel to Mexico to further their study of the Spanish language; or go to Florida to study marine biology. There will also be classes organized in the Minne- apolis area. For instance, students interested in elementary or secondary education may be able to sit in on a scries of classroom experiences; or journalism students could take their interim through various newspaper offices. Another advantage is ending the first semester at Christmas with carry-over after vacation. An important disadvantage is that some students may have difficulty Tn scheduling all their preferred classes in just two semesters each year, especially those who will be student leaching one full semester. This will be an important problem for those enrolled here before fall. 1972; the soph- omores and juniors in 1972. All in all, though, the switch to 4-1-4 should prove to be an exciting and beneficial change for Augsburg.

This story is intended to remind you. the reader, of that disrupted week, and it is hoped that you will profit through con- sidering the causes and effects of protesting. by Nancy Holland Tuesday, May 9, 1972, was the first really nice day of the 1972 spring season. Dedication ceremonies of Cedar- Riverside Associates “New Town-in-Town housing de- velopment were scheduled to begin at 2:00 P.M. with George Romney, secretary of HUD. one of the honored guests. Opposition began as a peaceful demonstration. Leaflets were handed out staling Secretary Romney is coming to dedicate Cedar-Riverside Stage One. He is not meeting with the people but only with the private investors. We must make ourselves heard. We must have more to say about what happens to our community. A meeting was planned for that afternoon, followed by a march to the construction site. At the meeting a list of four demands was drawn up. in- cluding the recommendations by the West Bank Project Area Committee to developers for the establishment of a peo- ple's corporation to assist in the development of the area, and also an end to imperialism here and abroad, self de- termination for Vietnam and self determination for Cedar- Riverside. It was decided that trashing of properly and police would only be a last resort, and marchers agreed to help control one another. Blocking traffic was suggested as a viable alternative. Meanwhile at the University, students gathered in front of Northrup Memorial Auditorium for a rally protesting President Nixon's escalation of the Vietnam war. and more specifically the mining of North Vietnamese ports, a U.S. action that sparked a wave of nation-wide dissent. About 5(X) protestors marched to the Cedar-Riverside construction site, being joined along the way by those meeting to plan a protest of the development.

At the site, the group was ordered by police to leave the parking area, and conflict erupted when the protestors un- ceasingly attempted to get within the fenced-in construc- tion site itself. Mace and riot sticks were used to keep the pro- testors out. to which some of them responded with rock throwing. Kggs and marshmallows replaced rocks amid cries by fellow protestors of No rocks! No rocks! It was announced then that dedication ceremonies had been canceled and the crowd turned to blocking traffic in order to be heard. In this spirit began the barrage of demonstrations which were to disrupt the peaceful lives of Twin Cities and United States residents in general for the next few days. President Nixon’s announcement Monday night that harbors in North Vietnam were being mined as part of a program to cut off the weapons and supplies it needs to continue its aggres- sion, along with the renewal of bombing attacks on North Vietnam in April spelled h-S-C-A-L-A-T-I-O-N and T-R-A-l-T-O-R to students and many others and set off their reactions. It appeared to them as if President Nixon did not want to end the war. The movement, always meant to be peaceful, ended in confrontation the first day. But Wednesday was by far the most disheartening day. Police and students clashed phys- ically with clubs meeting flesh, flying rocks meeting anything in their path, and tear gas meeting the lungs of those gathered on the street. More than 125 persons were injured. A rally began at noon on Northrup Pla a. But speeches didn’t satisfy the restless crowd and they were anxious to demonstrate to the community their disapproval of recent war actions. Groups of 25 to 30 people were formed and they began to march toward the Dinkytown Air Force recruiting station. Finding it empty on arrival, they soon moved on to the Armory. The demonstrators chose to express themselves there by breaking windows in the building. Police Captain McDonough of the University Police told the group that they could stay if they discontinued their destruction. Mem- bers of the group responded by burning the window screens which had been removed. Destruction continued. A few min- utes later, on the arrival of the Tactical Squad, protestors were chased off the street. Once again the crowd began to throw rocks, eggs and bottles at the police. One band of demonstrators overturned a car on 18th Avenue and threw a match into the pool of gasoline which spilled out. Flames soared, the gas exploded. Police then tried to restore disci- pline, clearing the sidewalks and chasing protestors down the street. Arrests were made. In many cases, police held protestors to the ground while handcuffing them, then beat them with fists. The group decided to meet and regroup at Washington Avenue and Church Street. They moved in about 2 P.M., blocking traffic on both streets. At 2:30 the crowd moved eastward on Washington blocking Oak Street traffic. At 3:00 the Tactical Squad arrived, armed with riot sticks and masks. They spread out across Oak Street in columns of 20, and the police captain announced into a bullhorn “Clear this area or you will be Maced.” Then the police charged, swing- ing riot sticks and squirting Mace. They then moved on to the group at Washington and Church Street, still swinging their sticks, and pushed the demonstrators back onto the Mall. The police then regrouped at the intersection and charged the crowd again, this time wearing gas masks and hurling tear gas. Students were chased up the Mall, only to follow the policemen back onto the street .when they re- turned. About 5 P.M. protestors lore down part of the fence dividing Washington Avenue and strung it across the street. Police tried to clear away the fence once, and they clashed with another group on the north side of the street. Police and 22 ? U+Sl demonstrators tangled through all of this, with rocks, gas, and insults Hung across the Mall. Several were injured - both police and students. At about 5:30 the police left the area. Rev. Vincent Hawk- inson of Minnesota Clergy and Laymen Concerned tried to calm the group. We don't want another Kent Slate. he yelled. I'm with you 100 percent. I've been fighting the war for seven years. I hate this goddamn war. Let's not kill one another. Let's not kill our brothers. By midnight a barricade built of snow fences, saw horses, trashcans, cement blocks and lumber stood across Washing- ton Avenue at Church Street. No traffic would be allowed to pass, .lust in case.

Campus activities on Thursday were relatively calm, or rather they remained peaceful because the police kept their hands clean. The barricade was manned by students all day long, and they also blocked traffic on University that after- noon. A march through the streets was likewise relatively uneventful. The demonstrators caused quite a disturbance later, however, when they moved onto 1-94 during rush hour, blocking traffic for an hour. Former Senator Gene McCarthy boldly stated in his speech during an afternoon campus rally that impeachment procedures should be started against President Nixon for his latest moves against North Vietnam. Traffic resumed at 5:30 at a normal pace, but not before demonstrators had proved how well they could dis- turb the normal pattern of life in order to make themselves heard. University President Malcolm Moos spoke to the crowds blockading the streets on Friday. Since dawn, police and National Guardsmen had been trying to clear the area with no success. Pressure was building. Moos tried to get the dem- onstrators to leave the area, but he also revealed an under- standing of their point of view. Looking tired and w ith hands trembling. Moos said. For 4 Vi years (as university president) I have advocated and used restraint. In the last day and a half I think things have been cool. I applaud you...I am respectfully asking you to leave Washington Avenue...If you don't leave, this is out of my hands. This is a city street. A little later the protestors were warned that in no sooner than 20 minutes National Guardsmen and Minneapolis police would arrive to clear the street. This announcement by Eugene Eidcnbcrg. acting University Vice President, was followed by additional comments that police would respond to acts of violence, and may use gas again. Minneapolis Police Captain Bruce W. I.indberg reported that officers were prepared to non-violcntly arrest anyone who wished to peacefully demonstrate anti-war feelings. Minutes later he announced that the crowd could stay in the street for the time being. You can have your street. We will not move troops in. There will be no violence. Within minutes, all 23 BOTTOM LEFT: Protestors sitting on Washington Avenue enjoy a musical evening of their own. while traffic is rerouted off the street.

FACING PAGE: Thousands of demonstrators march through the rain and drizzle to the Capitol in St. Paul as a finale to a week of protest. hut 100 protestors left the street. By nightfall only about 150 protestors remained on campus. At 8:00 P.M. the Na- tional Guard was removed. Officials fell safe in doing this because there had been no violence since Wednesday. In spite of 150, by 7 A.M. the barricade was removed at Wash- ington and Church, traffic moved, and police left. The barri- cade at Oak Street was torn down by a dozen students who opposed the war in Vietnam but who also opposed the dem- onstrators' tactics. Saturday's events consisted of a peaceful march in front of Coffman Union and ending at the Minnesota Capitol. There was no trouble and the march was considered success- ful. Despite persistent rain, about 8,000 people participated to make themselves seen and heard. Many opionions have been expressed on both sides now that the incidents are over. Undoubtedly both sides were at fault wherever there was any conflict. It was proven on Thursday and Friday, and even more on Saturday that dem- onstrations can be peaceful, and people can be heard. To Howard Gelfand, editorial staff writer in the Minneapolis STAR, the week was remarkable, . .it wasn't rioting that made the week remarkable, it was the quick return of peace to the campus and the continued naivate of the protestors. Tin. tone of the week wasn't set by the rock-throwing on Wednesday, but by the quaint resolution of university phy- sicians on Friday, calling for the police to aim their riot sticks at shoulders instead of heads.” The riots are over, but Minneapolis and St. Paul will not forget them for a long time. At least it w ould be well for them if they did not. A look at the contrast between that Wed- nesday and Saturday reveals that there are lessons to be learned about effective control, effective ways of being heard, and just about people in general: things vital to a “by the people and for the people” government. 24 ir.Tti Tom Skinner: ‘A Prophet of Love’ by Syl Jones Tom Skinner was easily the most dynamic individual the Black Student Union had ever met as a group. In several head-to-head confrontations with him we were at first unable to mask our suspicions. He seemed to dress loo meticulously, sporting solid colored lies, double breasted sports coats, pastel shirts, and winglipped brogues. For all we knew he could have been a mafia man or an ego-tripping detective a la John Shaft: but he soon revealed that he was a truly remarkable man. gentle but firm. Some of us wondered aloud where he had been all of those years when we seemed to need him the most. It turned out that he had been growing up in Harlem all of those years that we and other young blacks needed him. Born in 1942, he hardly had time to grow up before his Har- lem buddies made him the leader of the most powerful gang in the nation: the “Young Lords . Most of us can relate to that kind of background. We knew what he meant when he talked of bloody gang wars, thrill killings, and mass drug addiction. We'd been there ... at some other time and place maybe, but we’d been there all the same. He almost took us by the throat when he came here to Augsburg and spoke to us of Jesus Christ. Few of us knew what it meant to be “good Christians”. The example set for us by our white Lutheran brethren was hardly adequate. Skinner said Jesus was the most radical, revolutionary per- son ever to reveal himself to the human race. He said Jesus laid down stringent demands which mean '‘putting our lives under His lordship and authority. We told Tom that the Christianity we had seen at Augsburg was muted and deaf: “see no evil, hear no evil ; therefore, no evil existed. And he said to us. Maybe you need to be more organized so that you can show them the evil. Organized? What did he know about organization? Wasn't he just a preacher, somebody who had no idea what it meant to be involved in power strug- gles? He smiled and explained that it was his business to know howr to organize, and that power struggles were a definite part of his theology. At that point he became a kind of enigma for us. Here was a man who was trying to do the impossible and was succeeding. Tom Skinner united the BSU in a way that it had never before been united. At the same time he caused many people to tear themselves apart with indecision and guilt. The questions he raised were questions that many thought were no longer relevant, such as. Is the BSU a Christian organization? If so. what are our goals? Our resources?” One man. Tom Skinner, helped us see ourselves as an organ- ization and as individuals. There were times when his idealism became a bit too pre- tentious. Once he very plainly stated that he would give away everything he owned if another man desired it. That kind of rhetoric wins friends, but reflects Skinner's lack of basic common sense, the only fault that he possesses. True, it was a gracious gesture on his part, but an unnecessary one. Tom Skinner was a good experience for all of us. He is what most people would like to be. what some hope to be in the future, and what few arc right now. His affect on the white community was immediate. The black community is still considering his message. After so many years of living with hatred it is hard to accept a prophet of love. 27 LEFT and ABOVE: Tom Skinner appears before Augsburg studenls as a 'prophet of love’.

Time Out for Sports On the Role of Athletics EDITOR’S NOTE: This essay was written by Terry Blue, Augsburg athletic trainer, who was asked by the AUGSBURGIAN to comment on the athletic situation here at Augsburg. It should be noted that his essay is presented entirely as he wrote it. and does not necessarily represent the opinions and beliefs of the editorial staff of the AUGSBURGIAN. by Terry Blue Sports has continuously been a more dynamic part of American culture throughout the past two decades. In this span of time, the growth of athletics from the elementary school level through the professional ranks has been phe- nomenal. That interest in sports has been and continues to be substantial is amply demonstrated by expansion of pro- fessional league teams and the proliferation of television cov- erage of amateur and professional events to more than double the air time often years ago. So where, one might ask, does Augsburg College fit into this picture? Obviously the Auggie athletic program does not come under the heading of either professional or university com- petition. However. Augsburg does field athletic teams which compete on an intercollegiate basis and therefore is subject to scrutiny by those within our social milieu who voice con- cern over the role athletics plays in our culture. Athletics is strictly defined as that phase of a physical ed- ucation program which provided the environment for sport competition among strong, skilled individuals. Thus, ath- letics is a segment of the physical education program which is elitist by definition as are parallel co-curricular activities such as choral or instrumental music and drama, each of which employs a try-out system by which talent may be selected. Competition to make the team can lead to frustration for those who don't measure up talent-wise. Criticism of this situation is warranted only if people who desire to compete are not given an alternate means of participation. A strong intramural program clearly invalidates such criticism. Charles Bucher in IOUNDATIONS Ol PHYSICAL EDUCATION relates a number of aims of athletics which are universal among physical educators. A few of these aims are: 1. Promotion of a cooperative manner on the part of the individual participant. 2. Development of good sportsmanship. 3. Acceptance of people regardless of race, creed, or origin. 4. Promotion of traits of good citizenship. 5. Acceptance of both leadership and followership roles. 6. Development of social poise and selfunderstanding. As a rule there aims are realized in the athletic program at Augsburg. Exceptions to the rule do exist but they are rare. It is as inaccurate and unfair to saddle athletes with the nega- tive connotations of the title jock” as it is to label youth radical for preferring longer hairstyles. 28 Most criticism of Augsburg athletics has centered upon the football program. The past five years of Auggie football have- been quite painful for players, staff and fans. Winning is important in competition of any kind and sometimes re- ceives too much emphasis. However, in this case the won- lost record has been unsatisfactory by anyone's standards. Winning isn't everything, but when losing becomes the by- word much of what is good in athletics is stilled by a feel- ing of hopelessness, despair and finally “1 don't care-ism” which cannot help but be destructive to even the least sensitive individual personality. It will take two or three years of hard work and a little luck on the part of Augsburg's new head football coach to overcome financial, recruitment and personnel difficulties which have crippled past attempts at program revitalization. Meanwhile, some members of the Augsburg community feel that such revitalization would be a waste of effort and mon- ey. if and when it does occur. I feel that this viewpoint is unreasonable since it is conservatively estimated that a suc- cessful football program at the college would increase male enrollment by twenty or more students resulting in a return of several thousand dollars above that invested. The question 29 of financing football is not a major concern of mine, but I raise the matter because of the often-repeated charge that football will continue to cost more than it can return to the college. Perhaps I am old-fashioned but one of my strongest drives in life is the quest for community. I envision athletics as one means of achieving and maintaining community on the level of comradeship among the athletes themselves and more importantly as community of spirit and interest among Aug- gies. Athletics and the performing arts bring together alumni, friends of the college, commuters, and resident students alike into one gathering. On the sports scene this is clearly visible in the diverse crowd at a home basketball game. Events such as this are a necessary supplement to Christian resolve in maintaining and building interest in Augsburg among friends and alumni, for they provide the all-too-rare opportunity for contact with the varied elements of this institution. In summing up. I wish to assert that the winds of change at work in athletics today are good and necessary. The day of the authoritarian athletic department is passing. I believe that there will always be a need for discipline and leadership from the staff personnel in an athletic program. However, an important trait of a good athlete must receive greater 30 stress. Democratization of the athletic environment must continue if athletics is to more fully accomplish its aims as set down by professional educators. If this path is followed, criticism of athletics in the years to come will for the most part be justly considered to be “sour grapes. 31 The Year in Review A Fall Festival Take a short walk for a few blocks west of the Augsburg campus and you'll find yourself right in the middle of Cedar-Riverside, the West Bank community that has of late become known as the non-conformity capital of Minneapolis: a few short, slightly crumbling blocks with a little bit of just about anything you'd care to buy, wear. read, eat or hear. Cedar-Riverside had a Fall Festival in September, 1971, which brought out all the flair of those few short city blocks; suddenly they became a marketplace with artists displaying their works to pedestrians and special sales in the multitude of wee little shops lining the streets. Folk and rock music scented the air everywhere. Theater in the Round presented The Boys in the Band.” while The Center Opera Company previewed highlights of their upcoming season. A newcomer to the West Bank, Dudley Riggs' Brave New Workshop Also, opened for a Reason of improvisa- tional theater. The Cedar-Riverside Fall Festival gave autumn a colorful welcome in 1971.

Gone are the Magic Marker AY on elusive foreheads, gone is the Frosh Week Song. Gone arc maroon and gray beanies and. last but not least, gone is the beanie queen of the freshmen. The new Freshman Week, which began Sept. 3. 1971, left the beanie in the past and shifted focus to the individu- al and his problems. The problems? New college students fresh from high school can have quite a few. Freshman Week now has become a place to find solutions and to adjust.

TOP RIGHT: Jane and Bonnie Friendshuh make a classic picture of registration day con- fusion. Freshman Week began with the traditional freshman sign-in for the new Auggics on Sept. 3, 1971. After getting settled in dorms and figuring out where were strange places like “The Quad.” “Mclby. “The Center, and Memorial, freshman met with their College Brother and Sister (CBS) groups. The CBSers focused in during Freshman Week on helping newcomers feel at case and finding new friends with similar interests. The CBS group became the core of Freshman Week in 1971 more than ever. The new crop of Auggics had plenty to do that week. They took placement tests and had music tryouts. They had a skyway picnic. They went to a variety show and dance at Mclby. They brunchcd with President Anderson. They labored over schedules of classes. They traveled to the Guthrie Theater to see Cyrano de Bergerac after banqueting in the Commons. And finally, after all this activity, they registered for classes. There is trend away from singling out new students as being something unique or bizarre. Frosh, as they were called for many years, are ceasing to exist. They’re still around, of course, but no- body paints them any more, or makes them carry armfuls of baggage up narrow' flights of stairs, or even sheepishly bow down in blind fear of awesome upperclassmen. 37 Ai J. ito BOTTOM LEFT: The Tyrone Guthrie Theater pre- sents a tremendous play.

Freshmen soon learned what efficiency is involved in this procedure. One freshman said, “1 couldn't believe it. I was there for over four hours.” After questioning the treasurer over the amount of tuition still to be paid, trying to straighten out the mess of general requirements, struggling to get into a nearly- filled class, and waiting in long lines for hours, many stu- dents doubt that the present form of registration is nec- essary. A senior stated firmly, “There's got to be a better way.” 40 LEFT: With the able assistance of Ronald Palosaari. Pam White is helped in changing her schedule.

Now they have. Iota House became Augsburg’s coffee house in the fall of’71. It was a transformation which came about not easily, but through the sawing, hammering, sanding, painting, and blistering of a devoted group of students. lota House is now a place where communication happens: people talking with, learning about, and then discovering ... other people. Iota is a place of student togetherness with community spirit. It's a place where students can drop in, meet in Learning Through Discussion (L.T.D.) Groups, have seminars, or go to a Dialog Worship Service on Sundays. People from all walks of life show up at lota House just to talk and listen to students. Iota is a place where a person can find himself through others. 42 BOTTOM LEFT: The radiator adds its own special warmth to Iota House.

After edging River Falls State in the opener, the Augs were trounced by Eau Claire State 33-7. The Augs attempted to regroup after the Eau Claire loss, but the season’s second game foreshadowed the disillusionment that the team suffered through the following seven Saturdays. After dropping a heartbreaking 17-12 decision to Macalester in the Ml AC opener, the Augs went down to defeat at the hands of St. Thomas. Gustavus, Hamline. St. John’s. U.M.D. and Concordia. The season was winless but was certainly not without its highlights. The St. John’s game was the high point of the Auggic season, according to second-year coach Ed Saugestad. The Augs took a 16-0 halftime lead before the Johnnies, ranked tenth in the nation at that time, came back strong after the half to pull out with a 17-16 w in. Augsburg was represented on the 1971 All-Ml AC team by split end Larry Thompson and linebacker Don Skoy.

To exemplify Augsburg's concern for its setting in society. Clyde Bellecourt spoke to students urging them to take an interest in the treatment of the American Indian. Fred Storaska gave the Augsburg women a few tips on the prevention of rape, amusing them with some humorous and serious techniques to use against an aggressor. A cultural factor was added as pianist Richard Zgodova performed selections from Dcbussey and Gottschack. Later concerts were given by Augsburg’s orchestra directed by Robert Karlen, and the Augsburg band directed by N.

His name. The Tooth Fairy; his mission, to crown a ’’Nurse Durkin.’’ Amidst the array of decorating, eating, dancing, and tackling, the Augsburg faculty sought to prove once again that the Augsburg student will buy anything. So, Ron Palosaari and Richard Sargent auctioned their way through everything ranging from a dinner for four at President Anderson’s home to past issues of PLAYBOY, as Auggies vied for bids at the faculty auction. On Friday morning. Homecoming took on a more serious note when the annual Honors Convocation paid tribute to three dis- tinguished Augsburg alumni. Dr. Henry Bertness (1947). Lester G. Johnson (1936). and Dr. Conrad P. Winther (1906) were honored. At the queen's coronation Friday night, Linda Fngstrom reigned as queen with her attendants Maura Johnson. Muff Magelssen. Marilyn Moxncss, and Jill Steele.

(See p. 44) The Auggies led 16-0 right up to the half, but went down to the Johnnies 17-16 in the end. Auggie fans left the game depressed. Spirits rose, later that day, at the Homecoming Smorgasbord, where the Cabaret Singers sparked the fest with an informal show. The Homecoming dance Saturday night wasn’t billed as a date-dance’’, but evidently the couples who came saw it otherwise. On Sunday morning a worship service at Si Melby Hall concluded the 1971 Homecoming. 51 LEFT: Dr. and Mrs. Quanbcck select from a wide variety of food 3t Augsburg's annual Homecoming Smorgasbord.

It's strange because there aren't any cheering crowds, no hoarse coaches, and no sol- idly-bonded team effort. Cross country spirit exists in the heart and soul of the single long-distance runner who runs out of sheer will power and the love to just run and run and run. Cross Country is a demanding sport. It demands terrific will power and persistence. Augsburg team members start out each day by running five miles and wind up the afternoon by doing it again. Under coach Howie Pearson, the Cross Country team underwent a rebuilding year in 1971, with all members being juniors or younger. All will return in '72 and should do well in MIAC competition.

Soccer After suffering three close defeats early in the season, Rolf Eriksen's Auggie soccer squad finished the 1971 season with a respectable 6-4 MI AC record. Co-Captain Jim Agre and freshman goal-tender Glenn Monson led the air-tight Augsburg defense, which allowed only two goals per game. Offensively the Augs were led by all-MIAC freshman Mark Schneider, who kicked in 13 goals, and Co-cap- tain Paul Holmes who netted 11 goals. Brian Rokkc, Mark Bengston and Bob Slrommen also played well on the attack. The highlights of the season were 6-1 and 6-2 back-to-back wins over Gus- tavus and Macalester late in the year. The Gustavus game marked the first defeat ever absorbed by the Gusties in MI AC play. After almost winning the title in 1971, the Auggics will have a good shot at moving Gustavus out of the top spot in 1972, as 14 of the squad's 17 lettermen return. The three grad- uating seniors, Jim Agre, Burl Hau- gen, and John Sherman will be missed on defense. Agre was a unanimous all-MIAC pick for two consecutive seasons. 55 A Halloween Night in the Tower Autumn breezes look a turn to the crisp side as they whis- tled their way around the Auggie campus as the spirit of Halloween arose. Adding a spooky but fun flavor to the season, Urncss Tower hosted a Halloween-night party. It was a regal affair, too, complete with the coronation of the “Head Witch,” Rachel Wik and her “Head Warlock,” alias Randy Ferguson. Auggie ghosts, goblins and witches and several students among them haunted all floors bobbing for apples, carving pumpkins, swapping ghost stories and even embarking on a trip through a spook house. A capacity crowd packed the lobby to watch Hitchcock's chiller “Psycho,” now a movie classic still able to cause plenty of screaming, cries, teeth-ehattering and nail-biting in the audience. It left the Halloween partygoers with open mouths and looking over their shoulders as they went home for the night. 56 LEFT: Stephanie Pickering casts a dcmonly Spell with the aid of her crystal ball.

Lee, directed by Ailene Cole. The Little Theater on Riverside Avenue literally brimmed over with several capacity crowds during the per- formances from October 29 through November 7, 1971. In the title role as Henry David Thorcau, David Colacci portrayed one of this nation’s first gifted rebels. Spending a night in jail for refusing to pay his taxes, Thoreau traversed the bounds of lime and took a series of glimpses at his life. It was a life filled with parallels to present-day nonconformity and the ferment among the ranks of dissatisfied young people. The character of Thoreau is best described in the authors’ preface to The Night Thorcau Spent in Jail:’’ The man imprisoned in our play brings more to the 1970’s than to the age in which he lived. For more than a century, Henry David Thorcau was dismissed as a gifted weirdo. Only a rebel like Emerson's handyman would dare to question the benefits of technology! ... To create a better world, all we have to do is make things bigger, faster, stronger and cheaper ... Thoreau is a fascinating paradox: A man who was — and is. A self- effacing giant. A wit who rarely laughed. A man who loved so deeply and completely that he seemed, some- times. not to have loved at all.” It was a fine production, supported by Jack Palmer as Thoreau’s brother, Gary Sprague as Ralph Waldo Emer- son, Mcridcc Woolson as Ellen, Jeff Nelson as Bailey, and Dave Brisbin as the Deacon.

Augsburg remembered the glorious Fifties of. rock 'n' roll, ponytails and bobby socks, leather jackets and slicked back hair with the music of Flash Cadillac and the Continental Kids. As the sound of Rock Around the Clock and Ain't Nothin' But a Hound Dog filtered through the air in Si Melby, Mark Good and Sonia Martin- son twisted themselves to the twist contest championship and won the grand prize: a muffler and tailpipe from a '59 Ford. The year was 1971. but Flash could easily have swept a person back into the greased-back Fifties. In November, the Auggies come back to the present with the Doors and Spencer Davis and Company. With a prelude of folk music, Spencer Davis captivated the Augsburg stu- dents with a new, incomparable style of music. It was a well- done concert climaxed by the Door's trademark song Light My Fire. BOTTOM LEFT: Shades of the fifties! Mash Cadillac's piano player hits the ivories.

Old Man Winter was his old typical self in the Winter of '72. With -62 wind chill, sparkling snow which turned to dull black snow, heavy duty long underwear, and fur lined boots, plus feeble hopes of a Florida vacation. Augsburg students took advantage of Minnesota's Winter Wonder- land. As one walked through Murphy Square, a person could see snowmen and women who were really students rushing to classes. There was an ice rink near Urness Tower for the Peggy Flemmings of Augsburg and as the days got a wee bit warmer, one could see people being pelted by snow1 balls. But one must admit that after the snow falls it is beauti- ful. Everything is covered by a white thick blanket and for a moment, there is a bit of peace and silence...

Basketball Cagers Come in Third Augsburg's basketball team finished its second fine year under Coach Lloyd Butch Raymond, winning the Lutheran Brother- hood Invitational Tournament and placing third in the MI AC. Picked as an MI AC favorite, the Auggies were plagued year-long by injuries and inconsistency. After losing the first three games to tough state school teams, the Augs picked themselves up to win the next three in MI AC competition. Riding the crest of this short win streak, they won the Lutheran Brotherhood Invitational with a tough slate of teams. The Auggies defeated Wagner (New York), Luther (Iowa), and (iustavus for the champion- ship. Mike Haag, Sheldon Anderson, and Mike Meadows made the All-tournament team; Meadows emerged as the tourna- ment's MVP. Inconsistency reared its head during the rest of the season as Gustavus. defeated by the Auggies in the tournament, turned around to beat the Augs in their next game in the season. Augsburg finished the year with a 9-7 record in Ml AC play and a 15-10 record overall. (by Kipp Skaden) 66 FAR LEFT: Coach Raymond paints a clear picture of game strategy for Mike Meadows.

Augsburg students bustled off to class with dreams of candy canes in their heads. The Christ- mas season at Augsburg was initiated by the raising of the 40-foot Christmas tree in the middle of the quad. The Dorms got into the spirit by decorating individual trees, painting windows and singing carols down the hall. Dr. Anderson addressed chapel with his own Christmas message. He told the students, We can fulfill a mission to all people ... that will bring peace, joy and good will.” The Neophonic Brass and Cabaret Singers added their touch to the Spirit of St. Nick. too. and the orchestra, choir, band, and the modern dance club gave the Agusburg community the true meaning of Christmas when they combined their talents to perform a musical presentation of Christmas in the annual Christmas Concert.

Buffalo Valley was the scene on Friday night for skiing and dancing in the lodge. Saturday morning found many Auggies in the Commons for brunch and a pan- cake eating contest. Mike Haag was bestowed with the honor of having Augsburg's “Biggest Stomach. after he consumed eighteen pancakes in twenty minutes. In the afternoon stu- dents participated in broomball and volleyball tournaments. After the basketball game with Malalester that evening, free cocoa and doughnuts were served in the Knotty Kniche. and a folksinger entertained. Linda Bailey remarked. “The folksinger was good but the cocoa and doughnuts were better. The game room was also open for free use by stu- dents. Lxtremely frigid temperatures somewhat prohibited Sundays activities, but a skating party was held in the after- noon, and a sleigh ride in the evening. 70 LEFT: Rob Engclson coaches the broom bailers as they huddle-up in one of the nets.

Afro-American History Week Afro-American History Week came to Augsburg February 13-19. 1972 with the theme. “College of the Black Experi- ence. Sponsored by the Black Student Union (BSU) at Augsburg. Black Week called attention to both the black struggle against oppression in the United States and to the creative role blacks have had in the American experience. The week's events included a keynote address by I)r. George King of the University of Minnesota on Afro- American History ... Myths and Reality. a panel dis- cussion on inter-racial dating and marriage, a presentation on “Exploring Black Music. with John Patton, and an address by Larry Borom of the Urban League entitled. Black Students as Related to the Community.” A “Soul Food dinner was served, complete with every- thing from black-eyed peas to hamhocks, all topped off with peach cobbler and sweet potato pie. The week closed with an African fashion show and a per- formance by the Feast of the Circle Dancers and Drummers, a group whose specialty is African dance and movement. The BSU expressed dismay at the lack of white student participation in Black Week because the BSU feels that a well-rounded education should include recognition of other cultures. The members of the BSU feel that they themselves were bonded closer together by their participation and feel that Augsburg needs to see that black students aren’t black just one week, but every day in the year. Women Speak Out During the week of January 24-26. Augsburg women and men investigated the subject of their changing roles. Robert McCoy from the Stale Abortion Referal Service began the week with chapel hour with the question “Does compulsory pregnancy violate women's rights? His answer was Yes, a woman must decide for herself if she has the ability to care for another child. It's time men (legislators) stop deciding for women.” Women who spoke during the week were Vera Schlet er. a counselor with the continuing Education Department at the University of Minnesota. She spoke on Liberation: a problem, solution or joke?” Mary Howard from f ederal City College. Washington D.C.. accused federal government and private business sectors of discrimination in promoting women to administrative positions. Also, Augsburg's politi- cal science chairman. Norma Noonan, spoke about careers open for Today's Women. The week aimed for a better understanding between stu- dents and aroused questions and problems. As one coed stated. “We must begin to realize that men and women are equal and that opportunities for them should also be equal. BOTTOM LEFT: Members of the BSU present ideas to Augsburg.

After the organizer's speech Frank Cronke. one of the “Minnesota Flight,” introduced Ellsberg, who admitted his part in a “Defense De- partment Conspiracy and referred to the testimony he gave at the trial of the “Minnesota Eight. Ellsberg was well received and seemed to have the sympathies of the crowd. During January Augsburg's Con- servation of Human Resources group hosted 25 inmates from Stillwater Prison who called themselves Sounds Incarcerated.” The concert was com- prised of groups such as Hare's Ex- pansion” doing rock and blues and Don Mertz and the Poor Boys” in country-western. Al McGee did several readings of his poems. A women’s group from Shakopee also performed more rock for the audience. The whole concert was completely run by the inmates from Stillwater and seemed to be enjoyable for both the audience and the inmates. The purpose of the concert was to raise funds for ex- panded educational benefits for State Prison inmates. Laffs, Laffs, Laffs. .. Variety Show Staged 76 N tk XA Admist flowered leis, hobby socks, monster mashes and obscene blurbs. Kappa Sigma Psi presented their annual Variety Show. A lot of preparation went into the production. The sound of Happy Hukelaucrs filtered down the elevator shaft from ninth floor of Urness Tower. Upon entering Rho House. Tom Fischer and Neil Nel- son could be heard practicing Bruiser LaRue.” The performances on the Saturday night ranged from barefoot men with rolled up pants doing the hula, to the crossing of railroad tracks by a hillbilly family. There were many other acts such as ABX’sjug band, and Kappa House's rendition of the “Monster Mash.” But. the stars of the show were Leslie Gore and the Goretts who sang “Judy's Turn to Cry,” with great choreography in the background. This night gave Augsburg students the chance to ap- plaud and laugh at their fellow Auggics making fools of themselves but all was done in fun. Afterwards the variety show people served the audience a variety of bars and cookies plus punch to cool their laugh-parched throats. LEFT: Oops!

It dealt with the personal lives of the people in Spoon River, which signified the Soul of Man. They divided the people into “Lives Interwoven. Secrets.

White and the Seven Dwarfs.’ The child- rens’ play was improvisational and a mod- ernization of the traditional fairy tale. A special team of players portrayed in- animate objects such as a witch's cauldron. Another set of players acted as talking trees and animals. Innocent Snow White was played by Mary Muhlbradt. The play was presented to many children, some who wrote letters of praise to the cast, including drawings in pencil and crayon. Some of these kids’ reactions are reproduced on the next two pages. Jo d a 18 ? cNv i' sj y v,A Parents See Campus February 12, 1972, was set aside for Parents' Day, a chance for Augsburg families to experience the college com- munity. Parents began to arrive in mid- morning for a get-acquainted hour with President Anderson. Propsective students were also on hand for the chance to get a look at Augsburg. A luncheon was served in the Commons for parents and students, where the string ensemble entertained. In the afternoon, an L.YE team conducted a chapel service with a band concert following. Parents and students were later treated to an evening smorgasbord and enjoyed the music of the Cabaret Singers. Parents' Day activities were concluded by the play, “Snow While and the Seven Dwarfs”, and a basketball game with Concordia. 82 LEFT: President and Mrs. Oscar Anderson enjoy coffee and conversation with Mr. and Mrs. Paul Meadows.

With the clashing of hockey sticks and flying of pucks. I d Saugestad coached his team to a fifth place position in the MI AC with a 7-7 record. The Auggie Hockey Squad started out strong with wins against St. Mary’s. Macalaster and St. John’s, but soon they were brought down by a 13-0 defeat by the Guslies. After that game wins and losses were dis- persed throughout the season. When all games had been played, the final overall tally showed a ten won. ten lost season. Outstanding conference players were wings Bill Lundgren with twelve goals, twelve assists and Mike Sack eleven goals, nine assists. Goalie Bill Ross, playing in thirteen of the fourteen con- ference games, allowed sixty goals to slip by while making a total of 330 saves. Though their record was not as great as their comeback in ’70-'7l. the Auggics refused to let down. TOP LEFT: Bill Lundgrcn sweeps the puck past an interfering stick.

Paul Rustcn. the instructor in the class, showed how to edit, splice, hold the camera steady and create a movie. When the time came for students to make films themselves each got two rolls of film to work with. Sometimes the stu- dents worked in pairs which gave them a total of ten minutes of film production. There was a variety of themes in the class. One was called “Loneliness of the Short Distance Jogger. produced and directed by Ron Palosaari and Gail Sonderman. It was a Hick that amusingly dealt with the benefits and drawbacks ofjogging. The class was an experiment that proved to be an imaginative and fascinating class for budding C.B. DcMilles. 86 BOTTOM LEFT: Kipp Skadcn rolls film through an editor with a critical eye. TOP: Susan Maas waits patiently as exact distance is measured for sharp focus.

On January 20. 1972. the music, art, drama, poetry flavor and general mood of the 1600’s came alive at Augsburg's Knotty Niche. There was a variety of events such as a string quartet from Augsburg, a classical guitarist, and a group of Madrigal singers who presented the 17th century music. There was also a drama presentation of a murder plot plus an authentic 17th century eating demonstration with the throwing of bones on the floor! Dr. David Wood, the organi er of the event said. ‘Flaming Fountains and Weeping Fires is not meant to be an intellectual exercise, but an immersion into the cultural life of the times. 88 BOTTOM LEFT: John Rappalh and Mary Muhlbradl fcasi on 17th Century delicacies in the Knotty Niche.

Wrestling Matmen Undefeated Under the direction of Rookie Coach Mike Good and the leadership of All-American co-captains Ron Johnson and Pal Marcy, Augsburg had their first undefeated wres- tling season this year. Their 14-0-1 record's only blemish was a w ild and wool)' 15-15 tie with St. Johns. The grapplers started the year off in two of the area's toughest tournaments finishing a very close second at the University of Nebraska at Omaha invitational and a close second at the St. Cloud Invitational. After the Christmas break, the Auggics swept the St. Olaf Invitational and the All-Lutheran Tournament. The Ml AC Conference Tournament was a frustrating experience for the Auggics. Four of Augsburg’s best Ron Johnson. Mark Mattison. Pal Marcy. and Jim Mastro came through with individual Ml AC titles. And yet the Auggies finished in second place 6 points behind the Johnnies. St. Johns sneaked in the back door with only two cham- pions after having nine wrestlers in the finals. Ron Johnson was awarded the Carl Larsen Memorial Trophy for the Outstanding wrestler in the MI AC Tourna- ment for defeating 3-time Ml AC champ. Gary Svendsen. Pat Marcy won his third title: Mark Mattison copped his sec- ond while Jim Maslro notched his first. In March the team traveled to Oregon Technical Institute in Lamath Falls. Oregon for the NAIA National Tourna- ment. Pat Marcy made history by becoming Ausburg's FIRST NATIONAL CHAMPION winning the 150 pound NAIA title. Ron Johnson also did a tremendous job finishing third at 142 pounds. Together they paced Augsburg to a tenth place finish out of 80 colleges entered. Quite a finish for two Auggie All-Americans who ended their brilliant careers at Augsburg in style. With returning starters of Dave Yamaguchi, Jack Solem. Dean Kennedy. Mike Hollenbeck. Scot Davis, Kim Ander- son and Kevin Martineau. the Auggies should please crowds again next year with their aggressive style of wrestling.

After long days of cold and snow, the sun dares show its face to warm the Augsburg campus. With the warm comes herds of bicycles who comb the city-side looking for other bicyclists. In spring a young man's fancy turns to intramural sports, baseball and track, whereas a young girl’s fancy turns to the roof of Urncss Tower to get a tan. Murphy Square changes its duty from that of being a park to becoming an open classroom. and the buildings stand empty. Spring also signifies that the end is near and one is again free for another three months. But. for the seniors it denotes a permanent end to their college life at Augsburg and a start of a completely new life. They now begin to worry about whether they are ready to face the world but hardly have the chance to decide for soon they are standing in long robes and mortarboards waiting for their names to be called.

TOP RIGHT: Mcrja Wilcnius casts her ballot on election day. BOTTOM RIGHT: Darlene Doberstcin helps make campaign posters for the elections. 98 Suzann Scran Olson and Andy Morrison were elected president and vice president of the Augsburg College Student Society in an election held March 24. 1972. Their closest opposition came from Tom Krause and lid Grinde. Scran and Andy’s campaign platform centered upon getting more students involved in college decision-making, while Tom and lid stressed honesty and concern in their campaign. One main issue of the election concerned the AUGS- BURGIAN. Seran staled, The present Student So- ciety allocates more of its funds for the yearbook than it does for programming. Our referendum would see if this is what the students want. Tom Krause ex- plained that lid and I feel that the general mood a- round campus concerning the AUGSBURGIAN is that we really don't need it. If elected, we would ad- vocate the elimination of the yearbook, subject to a student referendum. Seran and Andy also said they hoped to increase feedback to the Student Society. They took over the offices previously held by Saul Stensvaag and Mike Nelson on April 12. 99 Music on the Road 100 TOP LEFT: Choir members perform for a church con- gregation.

Chosen Ask how an Augsburg student might spend term break, and a person comes up with a variety of answers, such as working, loafing, or heading for a place in the sun. But for an Auggie band or choir member, the story is different. Both of these organizations spent their winter term break on music tours of neighboring states. The concert band first travelled to Ontonagon, Michigan, and on their return gave concerts at such places as Milltown, Broadhead, and Colfax. Wisconsin. Benson. Dawson, and Montevideo. Min- nesota. The band was allowed a free night on Friday. March 3. when they stayed at the Plateau Inn in Watertown, South Dakota. Chris Henry remarked. It was an experience 1 11 never forget, especially the free night.” The concert choir’s first performance was in Alexandria. Minnesota. From there they travelled to Sioux City. Esterville. and Story City, Iowa, Omaha and Mead, Nebraska, and Wanamingo. Min- nesota. It was fun. especially the day in Omaha. It was 78 degrees. We’d just come from snow, and it was so warm,” observed Kathy Tinseth. Choral club toured in April 22 and 23, giving three church performances in I.ong Prairie. Min- nesota, and one in a country church near Hector. Minnesota. One choral club member commented that everyone got to know one another much better on tour than before. 101 Spring Play Under Milk Wood UNDER MILK WOOD, a play by Dylan Thomas, was presented at Augsburg this spring. It is a story about life in a small Welsh ocean town and it delves into the towns peoples thoughts, attitudes and philosophies of life. Dylan Thomas, a language craftsman, used his ow n unique style to bring out subtle humor and hidden meanings. Some of the actors were David Colacci as Mr. Pugh, the sinister husband who connived to poison his wife, played by Pam While. Bonny Lindemeier played Polly Garter who brought her sad ro- mance of a past love to people through sad tunes. Captain Cat. played by Fred Tyler, was an ever- present character in the play. He was an old salty sea captain who had gone blind, listening for gossip of wives, the songs of sailors and the rushing of the ocean which reminds one of the timeless quality of life. TOP LEFT: Fred Tyler as Captain Cat . BOTTOM LEFT: Dave Colacci relaxes during a scene. CENTER: Dan Vaagcncs thrusts a hand in exclamation.

The lines of the play are more music than any- thing else; they create a symphony of sounds that is unforgettable to hear. UNDER MILK WOODdoes not pronounce judgment upon the lives of men. but it is a dream-like reflection of the ways man docs live, whatever they may be. It is a reflection of an attitude that is characteristically Dylan Thomas. 103 Project Friendship Brightening Kids’ Lives Project Friendship is an organization on campus which pairs an Augsburg student with a child from Adams School, in Minneapolis. The children are those who come from underprivileged homes and who don't have the opportunity to go to a zoo. fly a kite, or take a ride to the top of the Foshay Tower. These plus other activities such as picnics and hikes are what Augsburg students do with the children. One of the highlights of the year was a Halloween Party. One Auggie commented, “You should have seen their faces. First fright and then all smiles; to me that makes it all worthwhile.” There are about seventy-five Augsburg students who participate in Project Friendship. The chair- men in ‘71-72 were Rachel Iverson, Linda Hanson, and Bruce Carlson. BOTTOM LEFT: A Project Friendship trip to a Minnesota farm helped kids learn about animals first-hand.

Again it was sponsored by the Bridal Shop. Something Old. Something New was the theme of the bridal show this year. Darla Lovaas and Beth Anderson introduced the models and described the dresses being modeled, intermingling the commentary with remarks about bridal and wedding traditions of the past. There were ten bride’s dresses and ten bridesmaid’s dresses: all of the latest season's fashion. During intermission a “little bit of something old was shown when ABX members modeled several old bride and bridesmaid gowns of their mother’s. The purpose of the bridal show is to give prospective brides some ideas for their weddings and for the enjoyment of other girls even though they are not planning a wedding in the near future.

In honor of mothers, the annual mother-daughter banquet was held on May 13 in the Commons with the theme An Old Fashioned Love Song . A punch hour started at four o’clock and a smorgasbord was served at five. A greeting was given by Fern Martinson, and Shelly McKee and her mother gave respective tributes to the other generation. Shelly's tribute was a Bible reading honoring a mother for all the things she does. The main entertainment was a barbershop quartet called the Bumhummers”. Part of the fun was a singalong led by the group in which the mothers sang a song to the daughters and the daughters sang a song in response. Scran Olson gave a closing speech to end an evening which was an old fashioned way to honor mothers at a most appropriate time. 107 Lutheran Youth Encounter A Growing Organization. . . A recent comer to Augsburg campus organ- izations is Lutheran Youth Encounter (LYE). Starting a few years ago with just a small number of students, it has grown to six teams of six or seven students each. It is a nonprofit organi- zation going out to churches to spread the gospel. Many times LYE is asked to spend a week- end at a church and work with the high school youth putting on skits, reading scripture or just having a good time. There is also an on-campus team who hold worship services at lota and par- ticipate in chapel. Candy Bohjanen. a member of an off-campus team, feels that LYE is a very rewarding organization, she says, “For myself, it’s very worthwhile because I have learned about myself and I've learned to relate the miracles of God to other people. The LYE at Augsburg is part of a bigger organ- ization which works from the University of Min- nesota. They cover Minnesota and parts of the surrounding states.

A standout on the team was senior strongman Lu- ther Bakken, a consistent performer who broke school records in both discus and shot put. Also making strong showings were Gary Wilde, a junior who won the MI AC championship in the 880-yard dash, and Bill Payne, another junior who now1 holds Augsburg’s record in the 600-yard dash. BOTTOM LEFT: Mark Ncscth keeps a wary eye on ihc hurdle below as he flics over. TOP LEFT: Bill Pa nc takes a breather before running at a meet. TOP RIGHT: Luther Bukken grimaces with intcn c con- centration before letting the discus fly. BOTTOM RIGHT: Jim llusing is ready to take a crack at the high jump. BELOW: Tom Fischer doesn't like running in foul weather. Ill Also bolstering the team were sophomores Phil Lundin, in the 440; Dan Rodgers, in distance compe- tition; and Jim Musing, who holds school records in both the high jump and the triple jump. At the end of the season, a final tally placed Augs- burg in the next-to-lasl place in conference standings, with a somewhat nebulous outlook for the '73 season. The uncertainty arose with the retirement of coach Howie Pearson from the coaching ranks, and doubt- lessly left track's future in somewhat of a limbo here at Augsburg. by Tom Kischer Baseball A “Building” Year... The baseball season in 1972 was typical of a building ball club. MI AC results of 2-12 were evidence of the ravages of inconsistency with still a glimmer of some interesting prospects for the next season. Had errors and hitting maladies been ironed out earlier. Auggie players wondered, how might the season have been different? The loss of many one-run games can be changed by added experience. Bill Nelson's pitching proved to be a strong asset, plus the fact that most of the team were non-seniors in '72. like Doug Germundscn, who will hopefully brighten Auggie baseball in '73. 112 BOTTOM LEFT: A dejected St. Mary's coach mutters to himself quietly on the bench.

BOT- TOM RIGHT: Germundsen flics head over heels at home in an unsuccessful scoring bid. 113 Tennis: Better Years The tennis team has had better years, to say the least. At the beginning of the season things were looking up after a non- conference win over Bethel College, but during regular MI AC competition, the Auggic nctmcn consistently lost every one of the six conference matches. The state tournament was but a dim light in the fog of defeat as everyone lost again in the first round of play but saw Gustavus place first in the state. Team members were: Mike Wrogc. Cliff Angstman. Al Krantz, Brian Anderson, Dana Skoglund. Craig Reiners and Steve Weiss. Ernie Anderson was the advisor, not coaching be- cause he is not a tennis player. The team could be described as “weak” in '72. but with good reason: the members, all freshmen and sophomores, were young and inexperienced. Lack of regular coaching was also a detri- ment. With all players returning next season, hopes arc running high for the future. LEFT: Craig Reiners reaches for the ball. ABOVE: Ten- nis player smashes a serve.

Golf Augsburg's golf team had a fairly successful season on the links. In MIAC play, the team won most matches but in later district matches at Honeywell Golf Course incon- sistancies cropped up and no one placed . Nobody placed was also the story- in the first tournament held at Brae- mar. Fortune changed however at Coon Rapids where, in the second tourney, the team came in first but fell back after a tally of over-all team points. Under Coach Lloyd “Butch” Ray- mond team members included Brad Olson. Jim Gcske. Rick Colvin, Fred Green and Tim Tengblad. With all but one player returning, the team has hopes for a brighter season next year and feels that their potential will serve them well if inconsistancies are elim- inated. Urban Involvement “Education City: Urban Eair was a day- set aside on May 3. 1972, to observe the position of Augsburg College as part of an urban environment. The idea of stressing the urban setting enjoyed by Augsburg is not new, but only recently has it been set in motion. An example is the college's recent publication. Hducation City” which is designed to attract students to a private college with all the inborn advantages of a cosmopolitan background. May 3 was a busy day: starting at 8:30 in the morning, there were dozens of pres- entations. programs, and discussions rang- ing from “An Urban Litany”, by Rev. Mandsager. to a scene from “Raisin in the Sun , with Augsburg students, to “Soul- ful Sounds” by the Augsburg Black Choir and Nat Wilson. Urban Day had something for everyone, as an urban college should. It also brought forth the idea that Augsburg College, by virtue of its situation in Minneapolis, can be a contributing asset to its environment.

Through Grier Nicholl and David Beau- lieu. who direct Augsburg’s Indian Edu- cation Program, the college community could become aware of the life, culture and plight of the Indian in modern so- ciety. Beaulieu said that because Augs- burg is trying to recruit Indian students, “the college’s students and teachers must have some understanding of Indian life if we are to offer Indian youth a meaning- ful educational experience. The week’s activities included a series of Indian speakers, films, exhibits and an Indian dinner in the Commons with an Indian fashion show. The festivities were culminated with a pow-wow in Melby Hall on Friday night. Nicholl explained that pow-wows are central events in the Indian’s life: a celebration of life through song and dance. The ceremony was at- tended by Indians, students and teach- ers alike who were fascinated by the beauty of tribal ritual. One Augsburg student said You could just feel it all around — the love of life and respect of life that the Indian’s had. Spring Concerts “Celebrate!” Spring, 1972. saw the second successful season of “Celebrate” concerts held at Augsburg. As the Augs- burg newsletter NOW said. Celebrate offerred music for “every taste and mood .The series, expanded from three to five concerts, gave patrons chances to hear the Augsburg Orchestra (April 25). the Cabaret Singers (May 4). the Augsburg Choir (May 9). the Augsburg Concert Band (May 16)- and Mogens Dalsgaard. a Danish pianist (May 18). Series tickets for the concerts, held in Mclby Hall, were available at a cost of $4.00 for adults and $2.50 for students, amounts which proved to be a rare musi- cal bargain. “Every taste and mood was a promise well-kept, as concertgoers got a taste of everything from Bee- thoven to Bacharach. with sounds to please the classical as well as the popular car. “Celebrate was once again a great way to say hello to spring.

Commencement 1972 Commencement, as President Oscar Anderson put it. “Is what Augsburg College is all about . May. 1972. saw Augsburg's one hundred and third commencement festivities celebrated and also saw a graduating class of some three hundred thirty-nine seniors receive degrees. Commencement traditionally has opened with Cap and Gown Day, May 17. It was a day set aside for the student body to pay tribute to seniors about to graduate. On Cap and Gown Day. the senior class named Ronald Palosaari. of the English Department, and Norma Noonan, of the Political Science Department, to be the two Honored Faculty members of 1972. This honor was started only a few years ago, but has become a very rewarding gesture of student esteem, a Cap and Gown Day tradition which has found a permanent home. Mrs. Noonan and Palosaari spoke short acceptance speeches following the announcement of their selection; particularly meaningful was Dr. Noonan's com- ment that of all the roles she plays in her life as a college professor, the role of teacher is, and always will be. the first and foremost in her life. 122 AUGSBURG COMMENCEMENT SOUTH BLEACHERS AUGSBURG COMMENCEMENT SOUTH BLEACHERS 800 AUGSBURG COI.IJUI: SO® AUGSBURG t'OI 1.1:01 LEFT: Ronald Palosaari and Norma Noon- an lead the graduation processional.

Beginning with the Baccalaureate Service at ten o'clock in the morning, seniors had a commence- ment luncheon, followed by a short band concert and culminated by the commencement exercises. At the Baccalaureate Service. President Anderson delivered a sermon entitled “The Commencement of a Commission . Rev Mandsager gave the liturgy and the Augsburg Concert Band performed a processional and recessional. The Commencement Luncheon, hosted by Alumni Director Jeroy Carlson, was a treat for seniors and their families. Parents of graduates were named Parental Alumni and received framed plaques. The Augsburg Cabaret Singers gave their last performance of the year, in their usual enjoyable style. Commencement ceremonies were held under rather threatening weather conditions that afternoon, but luckily the rain never came. The class marched across Murphy Square into Melby Mall and heard a commencement address by l)r. W. Roger Buffalohead. from the University of Minnesota's Department of American Indian Studies. Candidates for graduation were presented by Dean Bailey and degrees were conferred by President Anderson and Leonard I'. Ramberg, Chairman of the Board of Regents. Following the exercises, graduates met friends and received congratulations in Murphy Square. The looks of satisfaction and happiness on many faces were evidence that Commencement Day was a success.
