Since graduating from Bethel Academy in 1922, she served the school as secretary to the principal, secretary to the dean, and for the past ten years in the very responsible position of office manager. As such she oversees all affairs of the business office, including the accounting and banking de- partments, and supervises the switchboard. 1lNo matter how pressing her duties, she maintains her cheerful, radiant smile. At all school functions, whether they be con- certs or basketball games, the little wheel- chair finds its place in the audience and its occupant becomes one of the most ap- preciative spectators. In her life we have truly seen the spirit of the living Christ for she has found His grace all-sufficient. In recognition and grateful appreciation of thirty-one years of faithful service to Bethel College and Seminary, we dedicate this l953Spiretoyou, MISS EDITH LABSON. fy .W .J-wg 3 ,,,,-'M gf X kg, X.. ,-.if 6 , wa. -f Q V lw Kg- 7?

P Y MW - THAT IN ALL THINGS HE MIGHT HAVE THE PREEMINENCE' Colossions 1: 18 Was it not Wordsworth who said of the French Revolution: To have lived in that time would have been bliss, but to have lived and been young would have been heaven itself. 1lYes, it is wonderful to be young - and to be go- ing somewhere, and not to be like the dear colored woman who, when asked where she was going, replied, I's done been where I's going. 1lWhich way are we going? Do we not tend to go in the direction we are looking, - where our interests lie? One of my university professors once said, When you have spare time with nothing pressing, what book do you pull out to read? That will show pretty much where your heart interest, your heart direction, lies. 111-Xnd so as graduates step out into a larger world they will tend to go or con- tinue to go in the direction of the central focus of vision. All else will tend to revolve around that heart love whether it be small and unworthy, or the great blazing Light that does not fail. 1ISwinburne's greatest line was the follow- ing: This thing is God - to be a man in thy might: to grow straight in the strength of thy spirit, and live out thy life as the light. DR. HENRY WINGBLADE. President Dean C. EMANUEL CARLSON We solemnly assure you that as certainly as God is faithful so We have never given you a message meaning 'yes' and 'no'! Iesus Christ, the Son of God, whom Silvanus, Timothy and I have preached to you, is Himself no doubtful quantity, He is the divine Yes. Every promise of God finds its affirmative in Him, and through Him can be said the final Amen, to the glory of God. We owe our position in Christ to this God of positive promise: it is He Who has consecrated us to this special work, He Who has given us the living guarantee of the Spirit in our hearts. Phillips, Letters to Young Churches, II Corinthians 1:18-22. Dean EDWIN I. OMARK Another school year lies in the past. No doubt the record contains some disappointments but all ot us have reason for deep gratitude. The blessing of 'God has been abundant. Now we face decisions and new experiences. Whether graduating or not, we need Divine guidance. The wise man of old said, In all thy ways acknow- ledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. We wish for all the comfort and guidance of God's presence. H. WYMAN MALMSTEN Saved to serve might well be the motto char acterizing the life of H Wyman Malmsten As sistant to the President Since the day he gave his heart to the Lord through the living witness ing of Dr. Ewald Chalberg he has given him self untiringly and unselfishly to the service of the Master. Though the promotion of the school is Mr. Malmstens chief responsibility yet his interest and enthusiasm for the spreading of the Gospel is reflected in his messages which urge our people to have a share in an ever enlarging missionary program ELVIN G ANDERSON, B.A., M.S.

Iesus in the Gospel of Iohn The end, then, of learning is, to repair the ruins of our first parents by regaining to know God aright, and out of that know- ledge to love him, to imitate him, to be like him, as we may the nearest by possessing our souls of true virtue, which, being united to the heavenly grace of faith, makes up the highest per- fection. Iohn Milton in Of Education Let knowledge grow from more to more, But more of reverence in us dwell: That mind and soul, according well, May make one music as before. Alfred, Lord Tennyson in In Memoriam To open the mind, to correct it, to refine it, to enable it to know, and to digest, master, rule, and use its knowledge, to give it power over its own faculties, application, flexibility, method, critical exactness, sagacity, resource, address, eloquent expres- sion, is an object as intelligible . . . as the cultivation of virtue, while, at the same time, it is absolutely distinct from it. Iohn Henry Newman in The Idea of a University This world's no blot for us, Nor blank: it means intensely, and means good - To find its meaning is my meat and drink.

Roger Moberg presided as master of ceremonies at a talent program on Saturday night. Among the many skits was a hilarious one by Virgil Olson, Gene Iohnson and their wives, in which Dr. Olson was a tough newspaper man who had to have News that really was News.

One chapel service was entirely musical and featured the Chapel Choir and Male Chorus. The prospective students went on a tour of the campus, and saw a bas- ketball game.

Included in their activities was the forma- tion of a seminary bas- ketball team and the sponsorship of cx Christ- mas party. To become more acquainted with the women's work of the conference and to learn more about the duties of a pastor's wife as well as to provide cr time of fellowship for student wives were the main purposes of this group which met month- ly throughout the year.

From this group Coach Winterble and Assistant Coach Elmer Fischer molded the 1952-53 football squad. The team unanimously chose lim Baxter, fullback, and Bob Carl- son, tackle, to lead them as Co-captains for the season. Bethel opened its 1952 season by dropping a heartbreaker 7-6 to Wahpeton Science School of North Dakota. Although sporting their new blue and white jerseys the Royals were unable to click until late in the fourth period when they scored on a 75 yard march. Bethel bounced back the next week with a 25-6 win over Rochester. lim Baxter and Iay Williamson broke away for touch down runs of thirty and fourteen yards re- spectively to give Bethel a 13 to O halftime lead. Rochester couldn't seem to get started largely due to the outstanding defensive play of Turk Larson, Mel Nygren, and Bob Carlson. In the second half Bob Kendall taking advantage of a Rochester fumble faked a pitch out to lay Williamson and scampered eleven yards to score. Roc- chester's only score came on a 90 yard kick-off return. To close out the scoring Harley Schroder ran 65 yards to the two yard line where he was tackled and fum- bled with Chuck Smith falling on the pig- skin forthe final score of the game. The highlight of the season was the Royals 27-0 victory over a strong Worthington elev- en. The Worthington bluejays took to the field against Bethel sporting a two year winning streak and having the record of never having lost to Bethel. However the tables were turned as the Royals scored twice in the first half on Kendall to Chuck Smith pass combinations. Don Stipe booted two consecutive points after touchdown and Bethel left the field at halftime with a 14-0 lead. It was a fired up Worthington team that romped back in the third quarter for two quick touchdowns to trail only 14 to 13. The bluejay attack continued on into the final period and resulted in a score that gave Worthington the lead 20-14. But the blue and gold displayed a strong will to win by taking the kick-off and marching 73 yards to score. With the score tied at 20 all the Bethel Royals threw up an impreg- nable defensive wall and took over the Ball on downs. With a minute and 10 seconds left in the game the Bethel team sprung lay Williamson loose into paydirt. Don Stipe made his third out of four point after touch- down attempts and Bethel walked off the field victorious by the score of 27-20. YEA TEAM This was definitely a team victory as every player on both sides played up to their ability in a rock'em sock'em game. Credit should be given to athletic director DelRay Peterson for the excellent way he has supported the team. Through his in- fluence new jerseys and equipment were purchased this year. Looking back over the season the players and student body have reason to be proud of the accomplishments of this years team. S C O R E B O A R D Bethel 6 ...... Wahpeton 7 Bethel 25 ......

The Royals opened their season against St. Cloud Teachers College and then advanced to their home floor and in- itiated the newly completed field house in a game with Winona State Teachers College. Coming out on top 76 to 73 guard Pete Un- ruh playing his last season with the Royals spearheaded the attack. The new fieldhouse has given Bethel a much desired reputation and with that there is the hope of conference recognition. Bethel has endeavored to play for the first year only four year colleges thus giving them a much tougher schedule than ever before. Inspired by the wearing of the new blue and gold uniforms in the sec- ond home game the Royals upset a favored North Dakota State team 73-60. Bud Pierce, also playing his last season with the Royals participated in only ll games but main- tained a 14.4 average. The final highlight of the season was the overtime victory over Northwestern Schools with Pete Unruh scor- ing 28 valuable points and contributing free- throws which tied up the game leading to an overtime. With the appearance of such material as Paul Redin from Illinois, and Dick Fast, Bethel coach DelRay Peterson molded a practically new team. Paul Redin lead the team in individual scoring with a total of 336 points for 21 games and an average of 16 points. Pete Unruh followed close behind with 327 points in 20 games and a 16.4 average. Coach DelRay Peter- son serving as athletic director throughout the year carried on a very fine program, tu- toring the Royals for his 3rd term. The fast breaking quintette finished with a fine sea- son against very tough opposition. With the addition of the fieldhouse Coach Peter- son has installed a fine system in the physical plant and is looking forward to more successful seasons in the coming Zn Sgaaaf The Bethel B Squad began with a slow start losing most of their early season games, but with the return of lim Mac- Fadyen to the lineup and the stellar ball playing of forward Mel Nygren the Bethel bombers completed their season in grand style winning most of the last half of the season's games. The playing of Howard Iohnson from Ferndale, Wash. was a great asset to the team's overall improvement. Coach Elmer Fischer led the B squad again this year and the team turned in a very impressive record. years. fu. ff' Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel Bethel S C O R E B O A R D St. Cloud Teachers College 78 Winona State Teachers College 73 River Falls, Wis.

However, over- looking this fact Coach Del Ray Peterson fielded a squad of evenly bal- lanced material. The highlight of the season was the game against Luther at New Ulm. Gene Bistow handled most of the pitching chores for Bethel. The returning lettermen pictured above will form the nucleus of this year's squad. A late start will hamper the Bethel nine somewhat, but We are confident that Bethel is capable of producing an impressive team. The tennis situation at Bethel has improved with the passing years. This year the main- stays of the team will be Roger Berg, Arvid Berg, Wendell Anderson, Cal Edlund, and Bud Lee. These players will be out on their own representing Bethel in the Min- nesota College Conterence. As a result of an early spring, the tennis team is due for a good season.

Fred Thomas. the ,1952Vtrack team was ,the mainstaylof the spring sports. Last year Bethel entered such track meetsfas the Carlton Relays, the St. Thomas Relays and smaller meets between Hamline, Macalester, Augsberg, and Northwestern Schools. The main event of the season was a two day meet at Aberdeen, So. Ddkota. Chuck Lindgren, the Royals number one high jumper last year, was thelonly able scorer out of the nine cindermen to place at this meet. A few of the outstanding 52 Bethel track men on last years team were Skip Beard, a consistent first placer, Al Christensen, a speedy 220 man, and Arv Berg, broad jump specialist. This year's track picture is much the same with similar meets scheduled. Among the returning lettermen are capable performers such as Gene Gladder, Ford Wilson, and Fred Thomas. New recruits have a large part to play in the coming track season. The track team was under the admirable coaching of Elmer Fischer who is completing his fine coaching here at Bethel. Vwmwww pam 'ldqldfhft A well rounded intramural program was car- ried on at Bethel during. the 1952-53 season, under the capable leadership of Norris Magnu- son and Arvid Berg. The program was divided into fall, winter, and spring activities. Touch football occupied the spotlight in the tall, with eight teams participating with much enthus- The intramural program also includes such activities as pingpong and hand ball. This year an intramural pingpong team was chosen to represent Bethel in a tournament played with Northwestern Schools. This team was composed of Gloria Manseau, Carolyn Dal- quist, Bud Debar, Arvid Berg, and Norris Magnuson. The tournament ended with Bethel coming out on top winning four out of seven games. Supervisor, Norris Magnuson iasm, Basketball was the big sport in the in- tramural system, with play in the league run- ning from December to April. Iowa domina- ted the league with the Michigan and East teams as close runnerups. Playoffs were held in April. The third of the major intramural sports, softball, was played in the spring. Under the present intramural setup, the en- tire student body is eligible to play on an in- tramural team. Teams are determined accord- ing to sections of the country. Much competi- tive spirit is formed in this Way. The teams are East, West, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Min- nesota, and Twin Cities. rafyrstf 11- T f -ess' , .. - W-tffi-fw it 1' wi 'f'i'Vf1?Qt'l'V1l'lQYq-llIYT1't.ll Wm t tt-ts...
