Elaborate plans for expansion in physical plant and in scholastic achievement are being formulated. This summer the Baptist General Conference will study ways and means of developing Bethel. Students have caught the challenge of the new day. When a new day is contemplated, there is always the advantage of looking back. Bethel has progressed a long way from the junior college and academy eras. It is now accredited by North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools for its four-year liberal arts program. Wc find Bethel looking forward to a new day in all areas: Administration, academic, classes, activities, athletics, interest groups, and in the seminary. IN MEMORIAM JAN LANDES In memory of Janet Landes, whose walk among us witnessed of physical pain but who radiated a spiritual well-being far surpassing that pain. Janet was born in St. Louis, Missouri August 17, 1936 and came to Bethel College in 1955 from Davenport, Iowa. During her first year, she experienced the struggles so common to college freshmen and bravely fought, in addition to these, a serious illness. Although she was under the constant care of medical doctors and her physical burden made studies difficult, Jan knew the Great Physician and realized that He had led her aright. Her testimony confirmed her belief that everything in her life was of Him and for His glory. She testified on Christian service Gospel teams, spoke for campus clubs, and contributed to the school in many other ways. Her influence for Christ on campus was always positive and effective. Even after leaving us in the winter of 1958, Jan’s letters were evidence of her continuing faith and confidence in God's plan for her life. With only a limited time in which to live, her concern was that she find ways to serve her Master and “be in His will.” On September 5, 1959, she went Home to be with Him. 4 DEDICATION ERIC BORGESON Eric, as he is known by everyone, has endeared himself to members of the Bethel family throughout his eighteen years of service as campus custodian. His ever friendly greeting, enthusiastic conversation, and his outstanding prowess at basketball are some of his characteristics that will long be remembered. In 1923 Eric left his Swedish homeland and found a job as waiter on the Swedish liner Drot-tningholm. On one occasion, Eric and a companion went ashore to sec the sights in New York. Returning to their pier they found much to their horror, the ship had left without them. This presented many problems especially since Eric had a grand total of 50 cents in his pocket. Much of Eric’s life has emphasized friendship and service to others. In 1924 Eric accepted a position as janitor of Englewood Swedish Baptist Church in Chicago. During his 16 years there, Eric became the beloved friend of the neighborhood as he went out inviting one and all to the open house regularly held by the church for the less fortunate of the community. Coming to Bethel in 1942. Eric has assumed the various and ever increasing duties on campus with the same deftness and enthusiasm that radiates his entire person. In the summer when the campus is largely deserted Eric remains working preparing school and grounds for another year. SEMINARY BUILDING - . I 6 COLLEGE BUILDING 7 BRICKS and STONES Bricks, stones, and glass will never give a complete picture of the progress or nature of Bethel College and Seminary, although these do help. Shown on these pages are the mere buildings in which students and professors strive together in the task of seeking after knowledge and truth. Within these walls the living stones are shaped for their places of service for Christ and for mankind. The Library houses 60.000 books. Here minds are shaped The Ficldhouse not only dcvelopes sound bodies but provides for evening convocations and weekly student convocations Dormitory Row begins with Bodicn Women’s Residence, then Hagstrom apartments for married students, and Edgren Men’s Residence (far right). Hagstrom not only houses hard-working seminary students but also the patient wives and lively children of married students. Edgren provides a place for the single men to hang their hats and store books. 9 ADMINISTRATION CARL II. LUNDQUIST, president Carl H. Lundquist is the third president of Bethel College and Seminary. His presidency has been characterized by capable and vigorous leadership. The president is the chief administrative officer of Bethel and is responsible to the Baptist General Conference Board of Education for the conduct of the college and seminary programs. In addition to his school duties, President Lundquist has had frequent speaking engagements in the Twin City area, across the United States, and in Canada. He has also been invited to speak at various conventions and youth camps. The Dean of the College is responsible for the school’s educational or academic program. This means that he is primarily concerned in working with the faculty, both in their relationships with the students as well as with the administration, and with all matters pertaining to the classroom. His responsibility includes the crystallizing and clarification of the college’s purposes, the major testing and evaluation of the school’s program. CLIFFORD E. LARSON Dean of College EFFIE V. NELSON Dean of Women The Dean of Students is concerned with non-academic facets of Bethel student life such as housing, food service, health, activities, financial aids, placement, and counseling. The Dean of Women is particularly interested in the welfare of all Bethel women students. She serves as adviser of the Bethel Women’s Association and of the Bodicn Dormitory Council. The Assistant Dean of Students works under the student affairs office. His responsibilities include advising the Edgren Dormitory Council, part-time employment, and academic counseling. CLIFFORD V.

At present it is felt that the department has a good foundation to build upon and future years will show the building taking form. One wing of the new business building will be concerned with business administration. At present, only two years of such a plan are possible at Bethel. The other wing will enable students to pursue a business education major. Business students will be able to teach business courses in high schools after graduation from Bethel. ELLEN LEHR Assistant Professor of Business M.A. Iowa State Teachers College CHRISTIANITY The purposes of Bethel College demand that all of its areas of learning contribute to a student’s understanding of vital participation in the Christian life. However, the Department of Christianity has been established out of the conviction that experiences relating more directly to the Christian faith constitute a significant area of study in their own right. The program of courses has been set up to help students gain skills and essential background knowledge for the study of Biblical literature, appreciate the essential beliefs of evangelical Protestantism, understand the history and functioning of the Christian church, and see the relationships and gain proper attitudes in the functions of the Christian life. PAUL R. FINLAY Associate Professor Religious Education Ph.D. New York University ROBERT MOUNCE Assistant Professor of Biblical Literature Ph.D. University of Aberdeen. Scotland 17 1 EDUCATION AND PSYCHOLOGY ROYAL BLOOM Professor of Psychology Chairman of the Department of Psychology Education M.A., University of Minnesota ROY MEYER Instructor in Education Ph.D. University of Minnesota The Education Department has two main functions. It becomes a part of the general education program of the college to provide for all students the opportunity of understanding the significance of education in society and the major issues in education today. The department is also concerned with the individual student who has an interest in preparing for a career in the field of education. An introduction course to education is being offered on the sophomore level for those students who wish to transfer and for those who arc not sure of a vocation. Psychology makes significant contributions to the field of general education since psychology deals with the study of human experiences and relationships of man to his fellow beings. The courses provide opportunities for development in areas such as understanding individual personal problems, attitudes, and appreciation of one's social responsibilities. DONALD LANTZ Instructor in Education Doctoral Candidate - University of Minnesota WEBSTER MUCK Associate Professor of Psychology M.A.. University of Buffalo 18 LEWIS S. BARRETT Instructor in English M.A. University of Redlands GERALD HEALY Instructor of English . Assistant Coach M.A. University of South Dakota TREVOR OWEN Instructor in English M.A. University of Minnesota JEANNINE BOHLMEYER Instructor in English M.A. University of Wisconsin ENGLISH The English department covers a wide range of courses which have as their objective an improving facility in the English language. An equal if not more important aim of this department is to provide thinkers who can themselves communicate intelligently with all people. The organizing of the National Honor Society, Lambda Iota Tau for the encouragement of creative thinking also symbolizes these goals. A new reading emphasis program has been developed to improve reading skills. Reading, speaking and writing—the students in this department sharpen these most basic skills of the Liberal Arts. QUENTIN T. SMITH Instructor in Speech M.A. University of Minnesota RICHARD CURTIS Associate Professor of Speech Ph.D. Purdue University MAURICE LAWSON Assistant Professor of English M.A. University of Minnesota CHRIS WEINTZ Instructor in English M.S. Northern State Teachers College I EUGENE JOHNSON Associate Professor of Art M.F.A. University of Iowa HELEN McKENNEY Instructor in Art M.Ed. University of Minnesota ROBERT NELSON Instructor in Art and Modern Design FINE ARTS The Department of Fine Arts has three main objectives: (1) To extend the cultural and aesthetic background of students in college by the development of musical and artistic interests and skills; (2) To offer students with a major music interest and art specialized training to equip them as public school teachers; (3) To train leaders in church music, such as organists and choir directors. Students participate in an introductory fine arts course, recitals, art exhibits, choral and instrumental groups to carry out the objectives of the course. A new kiln was installed in the laboratory last year for fire clay sculpture. This year a new course in ceramics has been offered. New in the Music Department this year is Mr. Berglund. He has served.as the college choir director. ROBERT BERGLUND Instructor in Music M.A. University of Minnesota The Department of Music, a branch of the liberal arts college, offers training in two main areas: music education and church music. It provides opportunities for the general college student to develop an understanding and appreciation of music. The nonmusic major may take lessons, perform in musical organizations, or choose elective courses in music. Individual voice lessons are available and recommended for all who have promising voices and who have some knowledge of the rudiments of music. Organ and piano lessons are also available to interested students. The band, under direction of Mr. Julius Whitinger, plays for athletic events and gives concerts.

DALTON Associate Professor of History Ph.D. University of Minnesota DAL PHY FAGERSTROM Associate Professor of History Political Science Chairman of Department of History Political Science Ph.D. University of Edinburgh OLAF S. OLSEN Associate Professor of History Ph.D. University of Colorado HISTORY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE Courses in history and political science lead to knowledge of how men lived and interacted with other men in the past. Studies show how institutions, practices, and beliefs came into being. Students learn what men have thought about political relationships and how they currently practice government and politics. The main concern, however, is that through these and other studies students will better understand themselves and life about them. Emphasis is placed upon Ancient, European, and American civilizations and upon areas newly prominent in the twentieth century. Advanced courses offer experiences of depth in subject matter and practice in investigation. A new readings course in political science has been instituted this year. The course gives our political scientists opportunity to observe political theory and practice in the materials of American history. WALFRED PETERSON Associate Professor of Political Science Ph.D. University of Minnesota 22 LANGUAGES The Department of Foreign Language and Literature aims to develop elementary proficiency in speaking, reading, writing, and understanding the foreign idiom and to acquaint the student with important aspects of the culture of the country involved. Intensive experience provides the student an opportunity to participate in a culture different from his own. It provides some practical experience with the problems of language and the comparative structure of different languages. Students are urged to choose a language which will be most useful to them in their further study, professional career, or special interest. Courses in German are available to those who plan to go on in science, medicine or philosophy. Pre-seminary students get a background for their theological study in the college Greek course. Spanish is offered for some of those students preparing for foreign missions. It is also offered to others for elementary, high school, or college teaching. Swedish opens the door to the rich heritage of Scandinavian culture. Techniques of learning such as records and conversation groups are being used by the students to increase their facility in the language of their choice. Two language listening rooms arc reserved in the library for student use. ANTONIO BARRERA Instructor in Spanish D.C.L. Javeriar.a University. Bogota.

ROBERT SMITH Chairman of the Department of Philosophy Th.D., Southern Baptist Theological Seminary I.YNN I.UNDIN Physical Education Instructor B.A. Augsburg College PHILOSOPHY The Department of Philosophy seeks to develop clear thinking and correct reasoning within the students. Students are encouraged to evaluate life questions and answers and to develop life views of their own through studying different philosophical and ethical systems. Students are shown some of the answers that other men have had concerning man and man, man and the universe, and man and God. PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Department of Physical Education seeks to provide qualified leadership and adequate facilities that will afford an opportunity for every student to participate in required instructional classes, a recreational program, and the intramural and intercollegiate sports program. The program aims to promote health and physical fitness through a well-rounded physical education program. Bethel is now graduating young men with physical education minors. This year a course in coaching football, basketball, baseball, and track has been added to the program. The course is available to the physical minors only. LAWRENCE STARKEY Associate Professor of Philosophy M.A. University of Southern California Ph.D. candidate U.S.C. JERRY THOMPSON Instructor in Physical Education M.S. University of Wisconsin 24 SOCIOLOGY GENEVIEVE FAGERSTROM Instructor in Social Work M.A.. University of Wisconsin CLAUDE STIPE Instructor in Anthropology M.A., University of California at Los Angeles The department seeks to impart in men and women an intelligent and realistic Christian viewpoint toward themselves and other people, society, and the specific life situations in which they find themselves. The courses are designed to. meet two types of needs: (1) The need for broadened knowledge about human society; (2) The need for vocational preparation. The courses in sociology and social work give students a view of how people live together in various groups including institutions. They get ideas of the types of research and field work involved. Studies in specific problems in fields such as crime and delinquency arc available to the students. Courses in anthropology enable students to study man in his various cultures. Through these studies, students see people in their cultures and see why they feel and act the way they do. Students majoring in this area are usually preparing for teaching, social work, missions, business or government. Many other students, however, take these courses to better understand social behaviour, thereby becoming better citizens. DAVID O. MOBERG Associate Professor of Sociology Chairman of the Department of Social Sciences Ph D . University of Minnesota BENJAMIN WINE Instructor in Sociology B.A., University of Washington MATHEMATICS The purpose of the Mathematics Department is to provide the opportunity for persons interested in the fields of science and technology to acquire the necessary mathematical ideas and skills which these fields require, and also to prepare those who are interested in teaching or who desire further study in the field of mathematics. One new course has been added this year, which deals with the basic concepts underlying the methods of algebra. CHARLES TUCEK Instructor in Mathematics and Physics M.S., Northwestern University 25 V. ELVING ANDERSON Professor of Zoology Chairman of Department of Biology Ph.D. University of Minnesota LOIS J. BARTHOLDI Instructor in Health M.A.. Columbia University DANIEL ISAAK Instructor in Biology M.A., University of Minnesota RUSSEL W. JOHNSON Associate Professor of Biology M.F.. University of Minnesota BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES The department has courses designed to meet three types of needs: (1) a basic foundation for graduate study and research; (2) training for those planning to enter teaching, medicine, nursing and allied fields; (3) an exploration of the implications of biological science for every educated citizen. These courses offer the student a realistic understanding of the effect which the sciences have had upon our culture and the individual. Laboratory work provides experience in careful observation, reflective thinking, and other elements of the scientific method. The study of human structure and function is essential to understand human behavior. Thus it is related to the work of social science. Field trips give the student an appreciation of the varied forms of life and the importance of conservation. 26 PHYSICAL SCIENCES The purposes of this department are two-fold: to provide an understanding and appreciation of the physical world and experience with scientific reasoning and methodology; to prepare students for graduate study or for careers in scientific research, medicine, engineering, teaching, or other professions involving a physical science. The program of a course of introductory chemistry on an elementary level, designed for students with no previous chemistry experience and for those who arc not majoring in chemistry. More intensive studies of the fundamentals of chemistry are available for students pursuing that particular broad field. A study of physical science is available to acquaint non-scicncc majors with the physical universe, its laws and operation, and with the scientific method of investigation.

The welfare of the Bethel community vitally depends on this group whose aim is to serve the students. The student will find someone to serve him wherever he goes. The health service provides medications, gives infirmary care, and gives competent direction in emergency situations. The dining hall staff is constantly busy preparing the meals for the students.- Bill Malam and his staff serve the students six days a week in the Bethel Bookstore. The Coffee Shop, center of Bethel’s social life, is another service all Bcthelites appreciate, too. 28 DAVID GUSTON Librarian LIBRARY Situated between the college and seminary buildings, Bethel’s library serves both schools as a storehouse of knowledge—and as a haven of quiet. The building houses listening rooms, the Baptist General Conference historical archives, and a prayer chapel, as well as librarians’ offices, reading room, and stacks. A steady stream of new books has increased Bethel’s collection to nearly 58,000 volumes and necessitated six more ranges of shelves. College and seminary periodicals now occupy the north wall. Shelved beneath the displayed current issues are several back issues of each magazine. The new. bibliography center provides ready access to the card catalogue, pamphlet collection, and periodical and subject bibliographies.

Among the activities scheduled for the week The decorations at Bodien Women’s Residence illustrate the confidence the girls have in the football team. end were the football game with Milton, parade of floats from the Fair Grounds to Norton Field for the game, a historical variety program, and banquet, concluded with a worship service Sunday. Even the Field House takes on a festive look with decorations placed by some off-campus women. Edgrcn Men’s Residence took first place in decorations competition with the theme. Bethel puts Milton into orbit.” 77 The lights dim, the trumpet fanfare begins, and the queen candidates proceed to the platform. There is complete silence as Paul Evan, football captain, raises the crown. Queen Mary Ellen reigns for the weekend. The first event follows the coronation--thc variety program featuring songs from all eras in American history. Saturday finds the Homecoming floats winding their way through the biting wind to the football field where Bethel plays Milton. At halftime Queen Mary Ellen is presented with the traditional gift—a football signed by the team. The award winning float Up'n Atom” is submitted by the Sophomore class. The Junior class uses a literary theme, ‘Milton’s Paradise Lost, to predict Bethel’s victory over the Milton Tiger Cats. Bethel’s own ragtime band is always one of the highlights of the variety program. The Johnsonaires. L. Stimson, G- Ohlin, C. Bouton, E. John' son, and C.

Their being on campus provided ample opportunities for discussion for those students seeking information about the fields and the services there. This year a slide projector with an automatic changer displayed photographs from several of the missions as well of pictures of those in service there. In this way the students could actually visualize the area as well as here about it. The services were brought to a close with a rally on Friday night. Between sessions the missionaries find time to chat about their experiences on the fields and about the messages. Rev. Eric Frykcnburg challenged each student and each visitor with his messages. The Male Chorus Quartet (Vcrn Olson. Dick Barkcy. I.cland Eliason. and John Bohlcn) bring their testimony in song. ETHIOPIA 80 Julius Whittcngcr presented the concert band at several convocations Frank Laubach talks with Reuben Omark The Big Five evening convocations featured musicians to archaeologists and provided campus-wide conversations. The speakers were Frank C. Laubach, Nov. 6; Daniel Majeske, violinist, Dec. 4; Ethel Barrett, gospel dramatist, Jan. 5; William Albright, archaeologist, March 9; and Laurence Kulp, geologist, May 12. Ethel Barrett dramatized Pilgrims Progress 81 Daniel Majeske presented a varied and dynamic concert The sun has barely risen, but Cookie Markwood is already busy carrying out the strategy which will get her her Nik Dag man. Dale Goit is the man but Cookie had to make a lot of noise to wake him and get him out of his concealment. NIK DAG Nik Dag is the one day of the year when women get the chance to turn the tables on their men — take them out for a date. The Nik comes when the women pick up the tab for the dinner. Not only do the women pick up the tabs, but they reverse all etiquette for the evening. The theme of this year’s Niko-Icnas Dag was, “Nik Dag Around the World.” This was carried out in the evening program at Gustavus Adolphus Lutheran Church. Following the program, dates went on hayridcs, bowling, or out for lunch, after which the boys were escorted to Edgren doorsteps. On the way to class Cookie tactfully gathers bits of information regarding Dale’s interests....... . . . . And then later sets to work making a corsage which will, besides being large and awkward, be in some way typical of Dale’s interests. 83 This year the program was centered around the theme of “Nik Dag Around the World.” The corsages for the fellows were takeoffs from the theme as well as puns on the fellows’ names, jobs or hobbies. The girls not only planned on taking their dates to dinner and then to the program but many rushed out afterwards to house parties, hay rides and restaurants. One evening filled to the brim with activity and the girls settle down for another 365 days. Cindy Crohn sings to Linnea Linden about her Nik Dag date. Ya sure, ya bctcha, I been link he vill.” Shop at South “Dale”; it's all under one roof. This becomes Dale’s corsage for the evening. Even the Japanese reverse the tables one day of the year. Jan Gooden and her date Dave Peterman enjoy the geisha” trio (Lyla Stimson, Gail Wesloby, Cindy Crohn) as they sing, selections from The Mikado. It’s been a lovely evening. Dale. It sure has. Why don’t we do it again soon??!! he quips back. THE ANNUAL COFFEE CUP GAME “Ye ole Coffee Cup” trophey was the goal of both the Student Senate and the faculty this year. Throughout the entire game both teams were scoring continually. Horseplay characterized a lot of the plays and “attempts”. The band was playing, the crowd was cheering; then the buzzer sounded — the faculty was awarded the trophey. As the faculty lags behind. Gene Sprinkel tries a long shot and drops it in. Watch it!! They’re catching up. Transfusion! Scalpel! Scissors! Dr. Finlay and Dr. Stipe (veterinarians?) perform a delicate operation on one of the faculty players, Muck.

Hockey, toboganning, basketball, the boy’s view. But all agreed that snow was essential for a successful weekend. To our surprise there was plenty of snow. The highlight of the winter event was the crowning of Joyce Wessman as Sno Princess. Sheila Volz and Joyce Martin were her attendants. Tuffy Bryant flys like a dutchman.

At the pre-banquet reception Friday night of Sno Daze, Dave Davies serenaded our royalty with “Till There Was You.” Steve Peterson acted as master of ceremonies for the banquet. Featured on the program were Paul Knowles, tenor, and the Clifford Bruncell String Trio. Saturday morning everyone headed for Como Park for interclass competition in winter sports. Students participated in skiing, speed and figure skating, tobogan-ning and traying. Hockey was the featured sport during the afternoon. Bethel lost to the Phalen Seniors in hockey, but we won in basketball against Northland Saturday night. During half-time our Sno Princess presented the inter-class sports trophy to Jim Spiceland, president of the Freshman class. Following the game a mixer culminated the activities of our Sno Daze Weekend. Queen Joyce Wcssman is crowned by last year’s Sno Princess, Carol Bausman.

One of the features of the program was a demonstration of Japanese flower arranging, pre- sented by a Japanese professor from the university. Master of Ceremonies was Ron Veenker (lower right) Abaineh Workic (lower left, dressed in white) dressed in native garb as did many of the foreign students. 89 FOUNDERS WEEK Founders Week, 1960, found hundreds of members and friends of the Baptist General Conference gathering on Bethel’s campus for a week of spiritual inspiration and challenge. Beginning Monday evening with the annual historical banquet, Dr. Anton Pearson spoke on “Scholarship and Devotion in keeping with this year’s theme, “The Christian and the Life of Devotion.” Devotional studies of God in the Psalms were led each morning by President Carl Lundquist, followed by all-campus worship services and inspirational rallies later in the day. Speakers at these services included Bethel faculty members W. Robert Smith, Edwin J. Omark, Clarence Ross and Robert Mounce, and Conference General Secretary, Lloyd Dahlquist. The Founders Week Welcome was displayed on the library. The words of C. E. Carlson, former dean of the Seminary, were on display in the library. Pastors, visitors, and students get together in the bookstore to take advantage of books written by Sidlow Baxter. 91 Five hundred voices — the Twin City Mass Choir — closed Founders Week with the Hallelujah Chorus. Elective lectures, workshops, and special interest sessions, also led by faculty members and conference leaders, punctuated the day. Guest speaker of the week was Dr. J. Sidlow Baxter, formerly of Edinburgh Scotland, who challenged the congregation with his heart-warming messages on “Aspects of Pentecost” and related topics. Musical fare during the week highlighted talent from the Bethel campus in solo and ensemble numbers. Musical organizations participating included the male chorus, festival chorus, college choir and a massed Twin Cities Choir in combination with the festival chorus. Dr. Sidlow Baxter was featured speaker of the week with messages on Aspects of Pentecost. Service awards, given by Atty.

One of the musical groups which shared their testimony with the guests was the Women’s Trio. Jan Tjernlund, F.dith Taflin, and Nancy Gustafson. DEEPER LIFE WEEK Messages by Dr. Bob Smith filled Deeper Life Week with challenges for the students and visitors. Morning chapel and evening vespers, featuring his messages as well as student musical groups, highlighted the week. Because of its timing at the opening of the year, the spiritual tone for the entire year was elevated. SPRING CARNIVAL Campus organizations go all out with fun and skill booths for the annual Spring Carnival. If you think there’s a dull moment then try to find it in these pictures.

CAMPAIGN WEEK When spring finally sprung, so did the political parties on campus with campaign speeches, posters plastered all over, informal coffee shop influencing, primary elections, and open forums to find out where the candidates stood. With the enthusiasm of the parties trying to arouse student interest, the Royal Realists and the Independents vied for the five elected student senate seats. All tactics of politics were tried in order to make students more informed citizens, not only on the campus but in their communities. An appropriate slogan for the campaign would have been “Slumped in 60, little more fun in ’61”. 97 Students at the polls. Ian Paterson cast his ballot Basketball in the natural setting of aspens Lois Bradshaw crowns Del Fast with a beany. FRESHMAN WEEK Freshmen by the busloads traveled to Big Trout Lake for three busy days of introduction to Bethel customs and practices. The days included sports, crowning with geen beanies, and the spiritual emphasis at the campfire service. There was time for rowing, if there was talent. KING STU COUP Stewart Luckman, Bethel senior, became “King Stu I of Minnesota” on March 5 at Hennepin County Courthouse Steps. The coronation was conducted by Ian Peterson (Above). Bishop Hol-mer A. Tomlinson, of the Church of God, who claims he has been crowned king, by himself, in 100 countries and 17 states, was a bit shaken, to see that Minnesota had a king. He promised to be a loyal subject to King Stu while in the state. Tomlinson, however, went ahead with his own coronation (Above and right) Witnessing the ceremonies were several Bethelites of King Stu’s court and Minneapolis Mayor P. Kenneth Peterson. Bishop Tomlinson (below right) is shown with his own flag. The ceremony was seen throughout the Twin Cities area by means of television. Knights of the Royal Garter included Ian Peterson. Phil Peterson, crown bearer, Conrad Woodall, court photographer, Curt Lund, bugler, and John Carlson, chaplain. June McCillivray. Jennie Lou Peterson, and Ann Friberg harmonize around the piano. DORM LIVING Living with 150 other women in rather close social conditions, and even closer with roommates, is considered as vital a part of liberal arts education as are the classes. On these pages arc recorded some of the serious and the recreational moments the women experience. Studying together is more challenging for June McGillivray and Jennie l.ou Peterson. Lynn Davidson, Monty Hansen, and Paul Carlson share a joke in the hall of the men's dormitory. Bill Damberg, Riehard Magnuson, and Al Jordan study the Bible and pray together. You never know what's up! Ready on the firing line! 102 ALL IN A DAY 103 Dorm life among the men has its serious and its ridiculous moments, from the chats with dorm mothers to the pillow fight. Adjustments in after life are built on foundations laid in college. The devotions conducted among roommates arc among the most significant in a Christian college.

PIGSKIN MOVERS Coach Lynn Lundin has completed his eighth year as head football coach and instructor in physical education at Bethel College. For the past two years he has been athletic director and chairman of the department of physical education. During Lundin’s time at Bethel the football program has grown from its beginning stages to a well developed offering as a vital part of the co-curricular activity. The addition of a physical education minor has strengthened and promoted that department. Lundin was instrumental in building this program. The highlight of Lundin’s coaching career was the winning of the Badger-Gopher Conference Championship in football for the 1958 season. Bethel’s intramural, physical education and athletic programs have grown impressively under Lynn Lundin’s leadership. Benefits of his leadership will be felt for years to come. Talk about excitement! 107 Royal tacklcrs charge to aid Ken Baird and Paul Evans in North Park game. The 1959 Bethel “grid squad” was one of the smallest, most inexperienced that the school has fielded. However, this takes nothing away from the players’ fine courage, determination, and “never give up” spirit which was shown to every opponent. The Royals just couldn’t seem to put together two halves of good winning football. At times though, such as in the North Park game, they made fine defensive stands. Under the leadership of head coach Lynn Lundin, backfield coach Dave Dillon, and captain Paul Evans, the team made very respectable showings against teams with much more size and depth. Plagued by injuries throughout the season, the Royals at times had as many as nine freshmen on the field. Now that the freshmen have had a year of college ball under their belts they should be a big asset next year. A1 Litler received the Most Valuable Player Award for his fine, consistant play and leadership throughout the season. Quarterback Ken Baird was elected by his team mates as captain for next year. Head coach Lynn Lundin has announced that this was his last year in the P.F.. department at Bethel. As yet a new head football coach has not been chosen. Ken Baird sweeps opponent off his feet before the eyes of Paul Evans and Earl Twist. LETTERMEN Sundecn, D. Bonus. L. Johnson, D. Baird, K. Carlson. J. ° Carlson. L. ° Evans, P. Capt. 0 Lindaman, B.

Twist and scrapping Royals. Bethel lost its season opener being edged out, 7-6, by Hibbing J.C. before a spirited group of freshmen fans. Next, the Royals fell victim to Mason City, 18-6, due mainly to a leaky pass defense. They also lost Stu Luckman for the remainder of the season with a broken leg. The Bethel offense started to move against Northwestern, but the Royals just couldn’t punch over for the scores. At Sheboygen, Wisconsin the gridders, seriously hurt by injuries, lost to a Lakeland squad that had good depth at all positions. On Oct. 10, the Royals left Chicago with a 14-0 defeat at the hands of North Park. Even though the team lost, Coach Lundin believes this was the finest game of the season. Fighting North Park capitalized on a few breaks to hand the Royals the defeat. After being shut out by a strong Northland eleven, the Royals finally tasted victory in dropping Milton College, 7-6, making a successful homecoming. After recovering a fumble on the T.D., and Paul Evans, who had been sidelined by a shoulder injury, converted the winning tally. The the Milton one yard line. Lcs Borms sneaked over for Royals ran into a stubborn Valley City squad, but the line put up a stiff battle before bowing out 14-6 in the season’s last game.

Oddly enough, the two teams had the same winning point spreads (16.6) for the season.’’ These are statements from the Badger-Gopher Conference news release. This year we saw some very exciting and smooth ball playing. Wayne Kindall and Truman Turnquist consistently wiped the board clean as well as stuffing that ball through the hole above the net. Merv Shcp-lec did a real swell job from the outside. In the latter part of the season his sharp eye and good ball handling helped put the Royal dub out in front of its opponents. From the looks of the “B” squad play, we have some good ball players for next year. Bud Pierce was the Assistant coach helping Coach Hcaly serve the players and the school.

The only pressures arc to sec if you can outdo your friend or roommate. Wholesome sports are vital as relaxation from the intense mental concentration of college activity. It’s in intramural sports activity that life-long recreation interests are excited. Anyone who intends to teach or do youth work also finds these informal sports contests invaluable as training aids.

Much enthusiasm and energy was put forth by the Bethel girls basketball team as they attempted to win their games. However, due to a late start in the season, the girls were only able to come up with one win and five losses. Games were played with Saint Paul Bible College, Augsburg, Northwestern, and Swedish Hospital. Sue Bodein was the coach. High point scorers were Joy Hagstrom and Nancy Gustafson. With the good support the girls received this year, it is hoped that another year, the Bethel Royalettcs will come through with more victories. 119 TEAM MEMBERS Judy Peterson Joy Hagstrom Nancy Gustafson Nancy Friedland Lorraine Geijer Becky Waste Marge Johnston Ann Anderson Priscilla Winklcman Elgena Clewley Eunice Murra Is that a jump hall, Nancy?

Coach Lundin’s team was composed of a nucleus of returning lettermen, Capt. Jerry Oas, Ken Albright, A1 Pcnncr, and Clyde Thomas. The team played very fine at times, enjoying a win over a strong River Falls team. The pitching staff was led by freshman Russ Adelsman and bolstered by Dale Danielson. The defensive infield came up with some very fine plays at times as experience generally showed the way here. The big bat was swung by sophomore third base man Alan Pcnner and also plastering the apple at a good clip were Merv Sheplee and Clyde Thomas. The Royals occasionally got the long ball from Ken Aioright, Ken Baird, and Harold Wynia during the season. The end of the season saw A1 Penner named most valuable player and captain elect for the coming year. 124 LETTERMEN Russ Adelsman Ken Baird Dale Danielson Jerry Oas Merv Sheplee Don Wright Ken Albright Roger Carlson Dan Kaliher A1 Pcnncr Clyde Thomas Harold Wynia ♦Second letter ♦♦Third letter ♦♦♦Fourth letter Danielson take a breather.

Bethel’s new mentor in track this year was Gene Gladder, who received his B.A. from Wheaton College and competed in collegiate track under the coaching of Gil Dodds. The major track event of the year was the conference meet which was held on May 22 at Ramsey High School stadium. Confident it was a victory, the squad’s joy disappeared when they learned Lakeland had taken the BGC by half a point. A new record was set at Winona by Roger Purcell in the javelin throw. Although he came in fourth in the meet with a toss of 120' 7 it was a Bethel record (for it was the first recorded throw in Royal history). Elected the most valuable player for the year was Don Isham. Pat Colon was named captain of the 1960 team. Roger Purcell stretches out: 126 rl I. L i J% i Evans takes off.

STUDENT SENATE THE SENATE Operating as the organ of student government on the Bethel campus is the Student Senate. In addition to controlling student affairs, the Senate is active as a co-ordinating group between the administration and the student body. Emphasized in the Senate’s work this year has been limiting the number of extra curricular activities, while improving the quality of those already in ex-istance. During the year. Bethel students participated in Senate led activities such as Homecoming. Sno Daze and a symphony concert. In addition, the Student Senate has established a gym usage policy and did preliminary work on forming a calender policy and initiating an all-school banquet. THE PRESIDENT Paul Evan, as Student Senate president, holds a position that is becoming more complex in its scope with the increasing interest in politics on the Bethel campus. Presiding over the senate and executive board meetings are only a part of Paul’s duties for he serves as a representative to the Student-Personal Committee and is an ex-officio member of all councils as well. Of necessity a public relations man, he acts as mediator between the administration and student body and represents Bethel in any outside organization to which the Senate may belong. Hard to work!

RELIGIOUS COUNCIL The Religious Council is an indis-pcnsibie part of a Christian College with its emphasis on a deeper Christian life. With aims of informing students of Christian service activities, promoting Campus Christian living and providing practical counseling for students; the council sponsers gospel teams, chapel services, missionary offerings and dorm prayer meetings. Special projects of the year included sponsorship of the Eureka Jubilee Singers, the planning of a street meeting, and acquisition of radio equipment for the Aleutian Islands. Walter W. Buer, Mary Jane Carlson, Patricia Sink, Edwin Erickson Jr., Edwin Tcgcnfcldt, James Couihan. CULTURAL COUNCIL With a goal of developing in students an intelligent interest in fine arts and showing what place these things have in the Christian life, the Cultural Council plans activities for the entire campus centered around music, art and drama. Co-sponsorship of evening convocations and selection of art exhibits for the student lounge are examples of their work. For nurturing creativity and utlilizing student talent, plans are in progress to start a collection of student-produced art, drama, and literature. 132 Ray Duncan, Kathy Wilscy, Milton Quigglc, Shirley Stearns, Not pictured: Roy Brottlund and Eugene Johnson. ATHLETIC COUNCIL Promotion of interest in intercollegiate athletics and student participation in intramural sports taxes the ingenuity of the Athletic Council as they seek to increase the “athletic consciousness” of the student body. Planning the intramural program, publicizing athletic events, selecting cheerleaders and arranging transportation for home football games are only a few of their duties. Additional activities this year included football pep fests, basketball halftime entertainment, a pep song contest, a Co-Rcc at the Midway YMCA, and the annual “Koffe Kup” game between faculty and students. Elaine Johnson, Dick Bencrt, Ron Brisson, Dave Shold, Jan Allen. SOCIAL COUNCIL The Social Council exists to aid in meeting the social needs of students by providing social events suitable to a Christian atmosphere. This year’s activities were begun by collaborating with the Vice-President’s committee in presenting the Fall Musical Variety program to welcome the incoming Freshmen class and returning upperclassmen. Sno Daze, one of the most popular events of the year sponsored by the Social Council, included a formal banquet which was held at the Normandy Hotel. Other activities sponsored by the Social Council throughout the year include after-game mixers, the fall hay-ride, the spring carnival, and the spring musical variety program.

With the ever-challenging task of keeping abreast and even ahead of student affairs, the Clarion staff work together to produce a biweekly paper that contains a balance of academic, cultural, religious, social and athletic interests. Seeking to stimulate thought and discussion, the editional policy is aimed at discussing issues significant to the student. Under the leadership of two editors, the news and sports editors, business manager, reporters, typists, circulation staff and proff readers give of their time to reflect the pulse of Bethel. 134 Peggy Blomquist, Marie Hokuf. Lois Bradshaw, Sharon Dickau, Kathy Wilscy. Phyllis Richardson. Joy Bauer and Lyla Nystrom, typists. 135 The job of the typist is a very important one in the production of a newspaper. Neatness, clarity, and correct spelling are all a necessity for having the best results in the product. Larry Bradshaw, Dick Krcidcr, Gordon Bear, Don Dclich. Talking over a play before a game, the writers always make sure that they can cover their stories fully and accurately. This is one of the most important aspects of being a good writer. Gordon Bear.

THE SPIRE STAFF Meeting deadlines, yet producing quality: the of an editors life! Constructing a pictorial history of a year at Bethel, not only covering major events but also including glimpses into those special occurrences that make college life unique, is the goal of the Spire Staff. With more formal organization this year, the staff under the guidance of Mr. Lewis Barrett and with the help of many underclassmen, have worked diligently and arc contemplating the possibility of developing a program in the future for which credits may be received.

The one-hundred-and-thirty-voice choir in its rendition of selections from Handel’s “Messiah” helped state the Festival theme, “The King Eternal”; and capacity crowds were led by the group in singing favorite carols. Alternating conductors were Sheldon Fardig, Philip Gustafson, Robert D. Bcrglund, and Julius Whitinger. Originally, the Festival Chorus was strictly a combination of Women’s Chorus, Male Chorus, and College Choir organized for the purpose of providing the first Festival of Christmas with some of the great oratorio choruses. It has expanded to include all singers of the campus community who are interested in rehearsing and performing with the group and has sung for Founders’ Weeks and Spring Music Festivals. During Founders’ Week, February, 1960, the Music Department extended an invitation to members of Twin Cities Conference Baptist church choirs to join the Chorus. The Friday evening session of this week of meetings was climaxed by the group singing the Hallelujah Chorus from the “Messiah.” 138 FESTIVAL CHORUS In future years it is anticipated that the Festival Chorus will continue to be open to all who are interested. Therefore, from its present status as a composite of a number of performing organizations, it will eventually formulate into an oratorio society which will represent the Bethel College Music Department in presenting each year a major work such as the Mendelssohn “Elijah” or the Christmas Oratorio by J. S. Bach. 139 COLLEGE CHOIR The College Choir, consisting of fifty-two members under the direction of Mr. Robert Berglund, enjoyed a busy year. With a repertoire including the Bach Motet “Jcsu Priceless Treasure”, Brahms numbers, hymn arrangements by its director and other contemporary selections; the choir appeared in the Twin Cities area and toured North to Winne-peg, Canada in April. It also contributed to the Festival of Christmas, Founders’ Week, and the Spring Music Festival. Conrad Lundberg, choir president, and other officers were instrumental in planning a Halloween Masquerade party, a retreat at Lyman Lodge between semesters, and the annual spring steak fry. These functioned with important and inspiring devotional times to weld the group into a unified witness for Christ through the medium of song. 140 MALE CHORUS Representing the College and Seminary, Bethel’s Male Chorus toured the Atlantic Coast from Boston to Washington D.C. in the spring. Leaving campus with the Brass Ensemble to assist in concerts, the men made a successful trip and returned with souvenirs from the seaboard cities, memories of blossoming trees in the Capital, and good reports of their ministry in music. Their program featured works from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, Swedish folk music, and arrangements of hymns including an adaption of “And Can It Be” by accompanist Bruce T.cafhlad. A homecoming concert with Frank Boggs as guest soloist provided a fine finish to an exciting trip. Under the direction of Mr. Sheldon Fardig, the Chorus participated in pre-tour campus activities including the Festival of Christmas and Founders’ Week and, after tour, contributed to the Spring Music Festival. 141 WOMEN’S CHORUS Under the direction of Mr. J. Philipp Gustafson, the Bethel Women’s Chorus made its first major tour this spring. After presenting a number of concerts in the Twin Cities area, the thirty-eight-voice group toured during the week of April 19 through 24 to Omaha, Nebraska; Cedar Falls and Kiron, Iowa; and Northficld and Mankato in Minnesota. J. S. Bach’s “Blessing, Glory, Wisdom and Strength,” a number of Negro spirituals, and “Brother James’ Air” (an arrangement of the Twenty-third Psalm) made up part of the program; and between sections of the concert, a trio consisting of Joy Malmquist, Joanne Heckman, and Shirley Stearns provided selections in song. The tour westward augmented the present outreach of the Women’s Chorus beyond its on-campus and in-Citics participation in recent years. 142 BETHEL COLLEGE BAND The Bethel College Band, under the able direction of Mr. Julius Whittinger, has participated in many of the on campus events this year. Beside the regular concert band, there is a pep band which plays at all of the home football and basketball games. The addition of the pep band to the games has added a lot of new spirit to the games. The concert band has taken part in many of the convocations both during evening and morning chapel hours. They also participated in the spring Music Festival. 143 Hard work goes into every practice session. MUSIC CLUB Front: Roberta Yaxley, Jan Hallblade, Bobbye Jean Driscoll, Shirley Stearns, Ruth Swanson, Gene Thompson. Standing: Nancy Gustafson, Bonny Bilomgren, Bruce Anderson, Karen Mollet, Paul Johnson. Sheila Volz, Dick Peterson, Richard Nelson, Mr. Gustafson. The purpose of the Music Club here at Bethel is to promote the appreciation of good music among the students of the college and to make known in the community musical events on the campus. It also provides Christian fellowship among the members of the various campus musical organizations, thus creating a feeling of Christian unity through- out the music department. The club brings in outside speakers or groups to explain and present various aspects of the field of music in an attempt to enrich the aesthetic life of the students. A social hour is also sponsored by the music club following many of the recitals given at Bethel. The Bethel College Choir is led in devotions by Al Pcnncr before one of their concerts. The choir in this way creates a unified spirit among its members in their desire to sing to the glory of the Lord. 144 CHOIR TOURS With the clean smell of spring in the air, the melting snow, and Raster just around the comer, the choirs once again become anxious to travel. Each year one of the choirs is allowed a long trip of about three weeks while the other two have short trips and numerous concerts in the Twin Cities and surrounding areas. The tours consist of many good times of sight seeing, fun, hard work, and wonderful Christian fellowship around the Word of God. These tours are truely a gratifying experience both aesthetically and spiritually. 145 DEBATE Bethel has been represented by its debate teams, under the direction of Coach Q. T. Smith, at seven tournaments this year. Two teams attended Twin-City tournaments at MacAlastcr. Hamline, and the University. Two teams also attended out-of-state tournaments at Grand Forks, North Dakota and Madison, Wisconsin. River Fairs, Wisconsin drew four debate teams and one entry in Oral Interpretation from Bethel. This has been a successful year for both affirmative and negative debaters at Bethel. The teams have won over 75% of the debates entered. This is the first year of debating for each team member.

VICE PRESIDENT’S STANDING COMMITTEE Who is responsible for interesting prospective students in Bethel and welcoming them after they arrive? This involves many individuals, of course, but a large share of the responsibility is assumed by the Vice President’s Standing Committee. Each spring numerous potential “Bcthclites” arrive on campus for Prospective Student Days to catch a glimpse of college life in action. The following September, many of these same young people return as Freshmen to be officially greeted at Freshman Welcome Week. The success of both of these events is due to the many hours devoted to preparation by the committee. 146 Liz Stoop, Conrad Lundbcrg. Louis Holden. Lois Bradshaw. Bruce Lcarblad, President. LAMBDA IOTA LAU Lambda Iota Tau, with the Beta Beta Chapter on Bethel’s Campus, is a national collegiate honor society for literature and language students. The letters L.I. T., standing for Greek words that mean the “word gives form to the idea,” embody the purpose of the organization which is to provide opportunity for literary discussion and activities among interested students and faculty members. L.l.T. alumni members are being encouraged to support the establishment of a creative writing scholarship which will be awarded yearly to a Bethel student who has made a significant contribution in this and other related areas. 1st row: Maurice Lawson.

It aims to guide her to a better understanding of her call and purpose, and to acquaint her concerning her place as a Christian in the medical profession as well as encouraging leadership in training. A library of information is available to acquaint her with schools and special fields of nursing. Closer Christian fellowship is promoted through weekly devotional and prayer meetings and discussion groups. Through these methods our aim is to knit our vocational aims and desires to God’s will for our lives. 147 1st row: Shirley Neuman, Lynn Armstrong. Grace Scffcns, Peggy Dlom-quisl, Sharon Lindgrcn.

Spire photographers. Bill Freiheit, Larry Franks, Al Jordan, and Art Coombs. The main job of the Camera Club is to take and print pictures for the Spire, the Clarion, and for any advertising that the school might want to do. There is never an event that goes by without at least one photographer on the spot to record the event with a little piece of magic called a camera. As a club, the camera fans learn more about the camera, how to develope film and how to enlarge and print pictures. During the course of the year several outings are taken giving the club members a chance to take pictures and to practice and develope their skill as photographers. 148 Look pretty! Larry Franks.

Phyllis Richardson, Ken Fuller, Jim Fuller, and Don Berggren to Walt Shearer, co-ordinator. It is commonly thought that Amateur Radio is a hobby and it is. But at Bethel it is looked upon as being far more than this. The long-dreamed of 1000 watt station is now completed, and emphasis is being placed upon the training of students to operate the station. Many young people have learned to understand the “dits” and “dalis” of the Morse Code, and the mysteries of Ohm’s law. It has required hard work and good stewardship to complete this station which has beamed the voice of Bethel around the world. As the Bethel Amateur Radio Club looks to the future, it envisions the missionary standing, with a new “tool” in his hand, ready to meet in a better way the challenges of his task. •ian Erickson lets a Founders Week gu 149 “B” CLUB J.

The two projects for the year are the gifts of food sent to a needy rural pastor and family at Christmas and a gift of money to be sent to the Anna Chris-topherson Memorial Orphanage at Uruapan, Mexico. The central theme of each monthly meeting is based on a subject that will be of help to cither a pastor’s family or a layman’s family as we prepare to take our places in the days beyond Bethel.

Canadian students joined together to stimulate interest among themselves to encourage other Canadians to attend Bethel College. Another aim is to provide Bethel students with information about Canada’s social, cultural, political and economic dcvelopements. Some of their activities included a delicious dinner served in the President’s Dining Hall on their Canadian Thanksgiving and a dinner honoring all Canadians attending the Founders Week services during February. All totaled, there arc over twenty Canadian students attending Bethel this year. This is the most that have ever attended Bethel at one time and does prove to be very encouraging to the new Canadians coming in. 151 BETHEL WOMEN’S ASSOCIATION “Hi! I’m your Big Sis! May I show you around the campus?” Every Freshman girl was happy with the prospect of having a friend to help them become acquainted with college life. This Big and Lil Sis program is just one of the activities sponsored by the Bethel Women’s Association. Opening the school year, a banquet was held honoring the new students and wives of new' faculty members. Other activities included a Birthday Party for everyone, the Spring Style Show, a graduation tea honoring the senior girls and the awarding of a fifty dollar scholarship to a BWA member.

BODIEN DORM COUNCIL Organization is the key note for the successful manner in which the Bodien dormitory is governed. The responsibility of this organization lies in the hands of the Bodien Dorm Council, a group of girls selected as representatives by the dorm. “Rise and shine” breakfasts, weekly floor prayer meetings, and the Heart Sis” program are included among the activities sponsored by the council. Faculty wives, Mrs. Mobcrg and Mrs. Christensen supplied inspirational thoughts at our weekly dorm fellowships. Gay Christmas decorations were found on the doors of the girls’ rooms during open house shortly before Christmas. A prize was given for the most original one at a combined dorm fellowship held with the fellows from Edgren. Front Row L. to R.: Peggy Peterson. Louise Holden, Sandy Pyatch. Kathy Wilscy.

An all-dorm “Hunter’s Breakfast’’, served by the members of the faculty one morning last fall, set the spirit for Edgren this year. Phil Peterson and his committee have been active this year in providing good get-togethers for the fellows in Edgren. The addition of a television set to the facilities in Edgren helped to create a home-like atmosphere for the men. Decorations for the festive seasons such as Christmas and Homecoming were well taken care of as was evidenced when Edgren won first prize for dormitory decorations. There were serious moments together also as the fellows met for weekly floor prayer meetings, had serious chats with their counselors, and met for times of dorm fellowship. L. to R.: Lcland Eliason. Phil Peterson, Dwight Lind-bloom, Paul Carlson, Brice Miller. Capably leading this year’s council in Hagstrom, Dave Shold, president, provided among other things an open house and a roller skating party for his fellow residents. This provided an opportunity for all Hagstrom dwellers to get to know their neighbors better. Hagstrom this year was a community of thirty-two families with the present population figure set at eighty-two, but this number, according to Dave, is subject to change without notice. There have been many new furnishings and appliances added in Hagstrom to make life more pleasant than ever. The primary aim of the Hagstrom council is to meet with the residents to discuss and try to solve any specific problems which might arise during the course of the year. SWEDISH CLUB All students studying Swedish automatically become members of the Swedish Club which exists to better acquaint its members with the people and cultures of Sweden and the surrounding countries. Bethel’s rich Swedish heritage and the numerous opportunities for studying the Scandinavian way of life in the Twin Cities area do much to further this goal. The main event of the year was the Christmas party which featured, in good Swedish tradition, the crowning of a St. Lucia. Front: Phyllis Sisson, Carl Sjogren, Judy Peterson. Back: Mrs. Sjordal, Elsie Tutt, Mary Jane Carlson. Joy Hcgstrom, Grace Larson, Jan Olson, Jeanne Bebout. GERMAN CLUB Organized primarily to promote interest in the German languages and culture, the German Club membership includes those students who are currently studying the language along with others who have shown an interest by participating in club activities. Because singing plays an important role in learning the language, this was emphasized at the Christmas program and in the caroling activities that followed. Of particular interest during the year, was a talk presented by a Bethel student who had recently returned from a short trip to Germany. Marge Elvin, Fern Swope, Effie Nelson, Marie Valdas. 154 WORLD MISSIONS FELLOWSHIP World Missions Fellowship, this year under the direction of Ed Erickson, president, is an organization for those interested in foreign and home missions. This group meets about once a month to learn about the different mission fields and to pray for them. Their meetings have been high-lighted by special speakers from South America and other countries. They also sponsor activities such as the International Dinner where students from all over the world are invited to attend. Most of these students are in Minnesota colleges near Bethel. This dinner is put forth in hopes of being able to get acquainted with students from other lands to be able to learn more about their individual countries. Ed Erickson presides over the W.M.F. dinner meeting. ATHLETES BIBLE STUDY Every Friday at 6:30 A.M., a group of Bethel lettermen meet in the recreation room of the men’s residence. This carly-risers meeting starts with coffee and doughnuts, and ends with thirty minutes of concentrated Bible study. Dr. Paul Finlay, a member of the College faculty, leads the discussion which centers around a different chapter of the Bible each week. The Athletes Bible Study is sponsored by a group of athletes who desire to have a better knowledge of the Word of God. 155 Each week the fellows gather to learn. PRAYER GROUPS There are five prayer groups on campus this year organized and sponsered by W.M.F. They consist of the So. American, Ethiopian, Near East, Far East, and Home Missions prayer bands. These groups meet once a week to pray specifically for their appointed fields. HOME MISSIONS The Home Missions Prayer Band is led this year by Harrison (Tuffy) Bryant. This group meets to pray specifically for the Home mission fields such as God’s Invasion Army, the work in Alaska and Mexico, and also for the work of the evangelists in our conference that tour the country holding services. SOUTH AMERICA LaDonna Bergman is the able leader of the So. American band which meets every Thursday evening. This group meets specifically to pray for our Conference missionaries in the So. American countries. At the present time there are seven missionary families in the countries of Brazil and Argentina. Also as a group they share in writing to the missionaries and also sending greetings on special occasions such as birthdays and hollidays. 156 FAR EAST The strength of their prayers is not determined by numbers in this group. The Far East prayer band meets once a week on Thursday under the leadership of Beverly Josephs, a freshman. Especially remembered during this time is the work of the missionaries in Japan and the Phillipine Islands. There are eleven conference missionaries in the Phillipines and twelve in Japan. NEAR EAST The Near East prayer band meets under the leadership of Shirley Neuman. The main emphasis of this group is placed on India and Lebanon. There are eighteen missionaries in India alone to be remembered, thus it is a big job, but very willingly done by all who participate. Sending and receiving letters is also a big part of this group. ETHIOPIA This band, under the direction of Abainch NVorkic, a native Ethiopian, is the most largely attended group. This is perhaps due to the fact that nearly all its members are the children of Missionaries in Ethiopia, India and Burma. This group meets to pray, not only for the work of their parents, but also for (he other missionaries in these countries, and surrounding areas. 157 BETHEL YOUNG DEMOCRATS Lyle Hill, Ian Paterson, Carol Christensen. Dalphy Fagerstrom, Margo Chamberlain, John F. Anderson. The activities of the Young Democrats were designed to attract a wide range of interests. The programs included the Bean-feed where Minnesota’s youngest state-senator spoke on “Youth in Politics;” a discussion on “What is Freedom?”, the British consul on “The India-China Crisis,” Dr. Fagerstrom on “What is a Democrat?”; assistanl-Attorney-General Sidney Berde on “Albert Lea — the roles of the Governor and the Court in this strike situation; Mr. Ammon Hennacy, anarchist-pacifist, on the injustices of our present society; a party representative on “Gerrymandering;” Dr. W. H. Peterson on “A Catholic for President?”; and Dr. C. B. Bass, requesting equal time, also on “A Catholic for President?” The film “Cry, the Beloved Country” was sponsored by the club. The film was based on Alan Paton’s novel about racial friction in South Africa. The Young Democrats also sponsored an essay contest - “The Christians Place in Politics” - and awarded $25, $15 and $10 for the three essays judged by a panel of three faculty members. The prizes were awarded at the club’s Christmas party chez Derf (at Dr. Fagerstrom’s.) The official newspaper of the Young Democrats - Majority Report (Lyle Hill, editor) - was published intermittently throughout the year and distributed to Y D members and to the faculty and administration. 158 FLYING CLUB The Bethel Flying Club, which boasts of a dozen members, was organized this year. Each week the students meet for ground school. Dr. Finlay, who served during the war as a flight instructor, very capably conducts the ground-school classes. An Aeronca Champion aircraft at Anoka County airport was made available to the club at a very reasonable rate. Some of the members of the Flying Club are students who have felt a call to become missionary pilots. Dr. Finlay demonstrates one aspect of the plane to Curt Lund, a Flying Club member. SKI CLUB The Ski Club was designed to introduce skiing to students who have never participated due to lack of opportunity and information about the sport. It also was started to give those who do ski a chance to ski with their campus friends. During the course of the season, ski trips were made to Deepwood, Telemark, Moon Valley and Lookout Mountain ski areas. Free instruction was given by Dick Resch, the organizer of the club. Over twenty-five students turned out for the first meeting and seventeen went on the first ski trip. Gwen Clark, Dick Resch (organizer).

OMARK Dean of Seminary M.A. University of Minnesota Practical Theology VIRGIL A. OLSON Registrar of Seminary Th.D. Northern Baptist Theological Seminary Church History MRS. EBBA HAGSTROM Secretary to Dean ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY PRAYER AND POWER “Hitherto hat the Lord helped us” (I Sam. 7:12). These words seem appropriate at the close of the school year because the blessings of God have been abundant. Encouraging and inspiring are words that correctly describe the past year. Several contributing factors may be noted. One of these is the presence of four new men among the faculty. These dedicated men have made significant contributions, each in his own field. Another factor is the quality of the student body. Without casting aspersions on students of other years, we think all three classes - Juniors, Mid-dlers and Seniors together -have constituted one of the finest groups of theological students to be found anywhere. A new feature this year, much appreciated, was the “Community Life” period following the daily chapel. This time offered fellowship over a cup of coffee, male Chorus rehearsals and smaller group meetings. Perhaps the most potent phase of school life has been the class prayer meetings. Such have been held in former years but this year they assumed new vitality and meaning. G. LIN WOOD BARNEY M.A. University of Minnesota Missions GORDAN G. JOHNSON Th.

With the graduation exercises completed, and the graduates having received the red hoods, signifying a Bachelor of Divinity Degree, they are now prepared for service. Some of the seniors may go on to further education, some will be heading for the mission field, and the majority will be settling down to the equally rigorous life of the pastorate. On October 13, the class had a “fellowship social at the home of their advisor, Reuban Omark. As per usual, the seniors took the annually sponsored orien'Mion trip to the General headquarters, in February. As a culminating activity, the seniors were the honored guests at the Seminary Banquet, which was held at Edgewater Baptist Church, Minneapolis, on the evening of May 20th. All in attcndence were challenged by the message of Dr. Kenneth Kantzer, Chairman of the Department of Bible and Apologetics at Wheaton College, and professor of Systematic Theology at Orlinda Pierce Memorial School of Theology. As the year ends, our prayers go with the graduating seniors that they may be true servants of “our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 164 GEORGE BAXTER Nipawin, Sask., Canada DWIGHT CAMPBELL Grantsburg, Wisconsin DAVID CROCKETT Worthington, Minnesota EDWIN ERICKSON, JR.

LOOKING FORWARD With one, or two, years of seminary training behind him the middleman still has much to be done - many sermons to be presented before his sympathetic, but critical, classmates, term papers due every week, practical work cards to be turned in, and many laborious hours in the library. Having reached the midpoint in his training, he becomes more cognizant of the necessity for thorough preparation, and he faces his final year, in reaching his goal of becoming a full-fledged pastor, with increasing confidence and skills. The preparation has not been easy, but the Middleman looks with sharp anticipation to his fast approaching years in the ministry. The power of his pulpit, the quiet resources of his study, the influence of his counsel and devotional life, and the riches of a life of service for his Master await him. Soon he will step into his senior year, poised for the last turn that will send him into the Greatest Task. 168 JOHN F.

STRIVING — STRUGGLING This year brings men to the Seminary Junior Class from eleven states and four foreign countries: Etheopia, England, Finland and Japan. The Spirit of God has called these men from a variety of undergraduate training including: History, Philosophy, Education, Mathematics, Music, Pre-Medical, and Linguistics. Yet it has been evident that despite these varied preparations, a spirit of unity, fellowship, and keenness pervades the class members reflecting in a desire to be a credit to God and Bethel Theological Seminary. “Fellowship ’ was the key emphasis at the Fall Retreat and this has been pursued with zeal among the men of the class. In the class activities: prayer meetings, coffee and tea time, house parties, and informal gatherings it has been most noticeable; and there has been demonstrated the desire to above all, to seek and develop to live in “fellowship” with the Father and His son Jesus Christ.” 170 JUNIORS KENNETH ALBRIGHT Sr. Paul, Minnesota JOHN A.

SEMINARY COUNCIL SERVES The Seminary Council is the student government agency serving the seminary students. Its main concerns are the spiritual life and community life among the seminary men. The activities this year have included participation in the Interseminary Movement, revision of the health program, sponsorship of the Seminary Book Plan, structuring of a prayer schedule, and in the organization of the Seminary Chorus. From time to time the Seminary Council arranges a special seminary convocation of interest to the students. Members of the Council are Robert Frykholm, Chairman; Charles Rehman, Vice-Chairman of the Community Life committee; Clyde Rogers, secretary-treasurer; Lindon Magnuson, chairman of the Spiritual Life committee; John Hoeldtke; and Evan Rogers, representative to the Student Senate. Dr. Virgil A. Olson is advisor to the Seminary Council. Insurance! Well it means this. R. Frykholm 173 I The ‘onward movement We arc looking for great things from you. R. Frykholm SEMINARY RETREAT “KOINONIA The Third Annual Seminary Retreat was held on September twenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth at Camp St. Croix, Hudson, Wisconsin. The program was extensively planned, including speeches, messages, class meetings, discussions, recreation, and “chow.” Many of these semcnarians were, or considered themselves to be, great athletes in their collegiate days. Perhaps their memories were a bit faulty, or their family life too soft, that is, speaking of the married men. Considerable discomfort was felt by What a game! these enthusiasts the second day, when upon arising from their slumber, they found, or discovered, aching muscles they never knew existed. These aches were produced by participation in basketball, volleyball, and football; oh yes! and ping-pong for those not wanting to work up a sweat. The retreat brought the students together before the beginning of a rigorous year to help them get to know each other better. President Lundquist set the spirit of the retreat My, what a shot. R. Hardwick Take time to breath, fellas. with a message on “koinonia.” a New Testament Greek word for “fellowship.” Also the retreat showed the students that their future professors are also human beings, as they mixed, played, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. During the many hours spent together there was opportunity to discuss questions and problems of a Seminary training by returning students, with the administration and faculty defending their position; there was a refreshing time of testimonies which was engaged in, where students and faculty alike were challenged by their “equals”, in the Lord’s guidance and providence over and in their lives. All these activities of the retreat went together to produce a family spirit, a unity, which was to be a prominent attitude for the year within the Seminary. In summarizing the retreat it may be said that all was done to produce a social and spiritual orientation for new and “used” students. Who hit the ball? 175 Melodious melodies ring during chorus practice. SEMINARY MALE CHORUS NEW ORGANIZATION A new organization this year was the Seminary Male Chorus under the leadership of Mr. J. Whitinger. In this group the college music majors found release for their talents, and the many other Sem students with inclinations along the vocal line, joined together to make a “joyful noise unto the Lord.” Meeting on Wednesdays during the Community Life hour, the chorus would practice diligently, the members trying to relieve their minds of the chores of the day. The chorus presented to the Seminary student body a beautiful Christmas program, and they were used intermittently in chapel throughout the year. We are looking forward to increased interest and' participation in the future in this group as they serve the Lord through the channel of vocal music. Didn’t I tell you to watch the director. Seminary Ouartet: H. Malmsten, J. Nelson, F. Stearns, J. Anderson. 176 SENIOR SERMONS “TO SPEAK BOLDLY” The rigorous training is coming to a climax for the many seniors of the Seminary. Their final years is packed with required courses, credits that they have to make up, senior comprehcnsives, and the senior sermons. In the final sermon that the senior gives before his fellow students, he tries to ‘coagulate’ all his training. Their testimony as they go forth is to speak “boldly” of their Lord and Savior. From the homclctics class under Dr. Johnson to Now this is what I am trying to stress. A. Glenn “And . . .' J. LaRochc Oh! These tight spots. E. Ornark, W. Malmstcn, C. Bass, A. Pearson 178 Meeting for Biblcstudy at end of day . . . and prayer n. McLean, J. Stoltc FRYKENBERG PRAYER ROOM PRAYER TOWER AGAIN One hundred students, together with the faculty and the administration of the Seminary, crowded the spacious second-floor hallway of Bethel’s Theological Seminary building on the morning of November 19, 1959. The occasion was the dedication of the Eric Frykcnberg Prayer Room, the guest of honor being the Reverend Eric Frykcnberg, Seminary Class of ’29, for whom the room was named. Thirty-two years previously, in the school year of 1927-1928, F.ric Frykenbcrg led in the establishing of the Seminary’s first “prayer tower.” For nearly thirty years this “tower” was located in the south-east corner of the building’s first floor. The upper-floor was the living-quarters for some more than thirty theological students, who found the prayer-tower convenient in location and vital in their devotional life. The remodeling of the Seminary during the past three years left the building without a dormitory and without the hallowed prayer lower. The finishing of this new Frykcnberg Prayer Room again provides the students with a “closet” for quiet communion with God. 179 — MGOD BLESS OUR SCHOOL BETHEL” Christian Greetings from Temple Hill Baptist Church Bremer and North Simons Streets CADILLAC, MICHIGAN Vern A.
