Text from Pages 1 - 224 of the 1972 volume:

What time is it? Instinctively we creatures of a time ordered civilization glance at our watch shackled wrists. Time is not numbers. Numbers organize our understanding of the intangible. Then what is time? Fruit from the defiled tree. An offspring of sin. We are aware of time because we are aware of inevitable death, for which the entire universe is bound. We can see its decay all around us. That's age. In desperationXve search for our identity in footprints Ignoring the reality of the cycle we try to salvage the unsalvageable. Despair. But there is hope for us. children of the Timeless One. In Him. who stayed that maelstrom of destruction, we find our identity. Now. With a freedom as complete as our chains once v ere, the past is now only reason for praise and encouragement, not regret or new determination. Preserve the past? No. Bare our nerves to the sting of the present. | — That’s what time it is. ® Bethel is a four year accredited co educational Christian liberal arts college in St. Paul, Minnesota. It has a faculty of approximately 70. and more than 1,000 students. The college is owned and operated by the Baptist General Conference. The Board of Regents reserves the right to change any charges or regulations listed in this catalog. Tuition .. $900.00 per term. Application Fee. $10.00. Registration Fee . $50.00. Board.....$225.00 per term. Room rent, including linen rent- al .. .$155.00 to $197.00. The work load and schedule at Bethel follows the four-one-four plan. A total of 34 courses are required for graduation. Bethel College is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the American Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the American Association of University Women, the American Association for Teacher Education, and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. Bethel is certified by the State of Minnesota for Elementary and Secondary Education programs, and has unqualified recognition by the University of Minnesota. Bethel's philosophy of education is reflected in the profile of its teaching faculty. About 30% have earned doctorates and another 27% are Ph D. candidates. A normal load for each term is four courses, with one course during the January Interim. A course is expected to take one-fourth of a student's time in a forty-hour study week. In only exceptional instances. and that with permission of an advisor and the Registrar, will a student be alllowed to take five courses in any one term. The quality of work is evaluateC in terms of grades A.B.C.D. F. and in grade points. A student who earns less than 2.00 GPA during any given term is issued an academic warning. The following students will not be permitted to re-register unless the committee approves a request for Final Academic Probation: 1) regularly admitted freshmen who achieve a GPA of less than 1.75 at the end of the first year, 2) provisionally admitted freshmen who achieve a GPA of less than 2.00 at the end of the first year, and 3) sophomores with a GPA of less than 1.75 at the end of the second year. No change of registration is completed until a Change of Registration form has been properly completed and filed in the Registrar’s Office. Every student is accountable for all required work in each of his courses, including work missed because of absence, and as-such. he must assume full responsibility for class attendance in a way satisfactory to the instructor. At the close of the Fall and Spring terms, one week is provided for final examinations. Any student marrying during the school year must write his plans to the Student Services Office sixty days before marriage to clear past and future housing arrangements, scholarship eligibility, and any other appropriate planning. The official classification of students for the year is made at the beginning of the Fall term on the basis of a student's having completed courses according to the following schedule: Freshman; 1-8 courses. Sophomore; 9-16 courses. Junior; 17-24 courses. Senior; 25 or more courses. At present we occupy eight acres in St. Paul but we spill over onto a new 214-acre campus where we have a dorm for 120 students. On the present campus there are three residence halls offering comfortable rooms plus recreation-If you've read this far you’re doing a commendable job keep it up. this is probably the most unexciting copy in the whole book. But these are the facts, which are of course, necessary. The base of the pyramid of Khufu, more than 700 feet on a side, is larger than the Bethel campus. Isn’t do not fold spindle oo mutilate At present we occupy eight acres in St. Paul but we spill over onto a new 214 acre campus where we have a dorm for 120 students. On the present campus there are three residence halls offering comfortable rooms plus recreational and lounging facilities. Two administrative-classroom buildings, a 65,000 volume library, and a gymnasium are also part of the present college complex which is located in the midway area near both Minneapolis and St. Paul. The Dining Hall in Bodien Residence is the principal food service for every meal except Sunday evening. All students in college residences participate in what we call a meal contract plan. There are general principles by which student behavior is guided at Bethel. Hopefully, legalism and negativism is avoided as much as possible in order to place primary stress upon personal vital relationship to Jesus Christ as Lord. At the same time, certain cautions have been highlighted in universal Biblical principles. The application of these principles has led to the identification of certain social practices which are detrimental to the common good at Bethel. These include immoral conduct, the possession or use of alcoholic beverages, infringing on the rights of others, gambling, the possession, or use of narcotics or hallucinogenic drugs, including marijuana, the improper use of substances broadly defined as stimulants and depressants, and the use of tobacco in any form. A student s disregard for—violation of—these social standards at Bethel will result in appropriate disciplinary action. Eight different sports are conductec on the varsity level, while hockey and soccer are offered on a club basis We have three touring choral groups, the Women’s Choir, the Male Chorus, and College Choir. In recent years, both the Male Chorus and the College Choir have toured Europe. A Newspaper (Clarion), a literary journal (Coeval), and a year book (Spire)are staffed by student writers and photographers. The Student Senate is the governing body which exercises a general control of student affairs. It coordinates activities of college life through a series of student committees and appoints representatives to serve on joint faculty-student committees. Many students find the opportunities for Christian service a very rewarding part of their Bethel experience. The number and variety of opportunities for Christian service is limitless. Financial assistance is available in the following areas: Scholarships. Grants, loans. Special Awards, and Employment. Freshman Scholarship-$200 to $900, a 3.0 honor point ratio: Ministerial Grant-$200; National Defense Student Loan; Minority Grant. The school employs about 300 students during the school year; they work in the food service, dormitories, etc. Starting pay is $1.65 per hour. No student who is regularly registered at Bethel College may take courses at other institutions, either in summer school or through extension or in residence, with out the permission of the Registrar. Graduation Honors. Honors will be awarded to graduating students on the following basis: Students who have completed 18 or more courses at Bethel College; Students who have completed less than 18 courses at Bethel College (scale will be the same).

And there have been people for quite a few years. Let’s say only 1000 years. Isn’t It amazing to know that out of all of those God knows you by name, not number. 1 Debbie Wessel 2. Tim Olson 3.

A crowd Genesis 1:28 “And God blessed them and God said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill Man!Stop!Think!Haste Makes Waste! Be still and know that I am God Psalms 46:10. The one natural phenomena that fascinates me is the Balance of Nature that God created and saw it was very good. (Gen. 1:31) The Laws of Nature speak to man that: Snow-shoes are better than snowmobiles Canoes are better than motorboats Legs are better than cars or In other words, man is producing waste faster than nature can dispose of the by-products of our fast technological age. and man is not getting his proper exercise. One beautiful case of the balance of nature is the ecology of the soil where there are thousands of microbes (decomposers as bacteria, mold, virus, etc.) that are active and specific in the chemical breakdown of dead animal and plant life and decomposable waste from man into soluble compounds for green plants to feed on and start the various food chains that make up the balance of nature for the preservation of mankind. These food chains can be upset by the use of poisonous chemicals and improper agricultural methods. Everywhere in our environment one can note that when a vegetation community such as forest or prairie or aquatic is destroyed by fire or insects or disease or man. that nature will gradually restore such a community. In nature one can see God’s mercy on man in spite of his sins in not being good stewards of the earth. The problem with man is his haste or hurry - he can't wait for the natural laws to operate. As yet man has not learned his lesson that “Haste makes Waste.” Russell Johnson Mr. Russell Johnson Mr, Tom Goff Unlike people in many other cultures, we see man’s basic role as that of dominating nature, rather than as living in harmony with it. This entire problem has been elegantly discussed by Professor Lynn White. Jr., in Science magazine. He points out, for instance, that before the Christian era trees, springs, hills, streams, and other objects of nature had guardian spirits. These spirits had to be ap proached and placated before one could safely invade their territory. As White says. “By destroying pagan animism. Christianity made it possible to exploit nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects.” Christianity fostered the wide spread of basic ideas of “progress” and of time as something linear, nonrepeating, and absolute, flowing from the future into the past. Such ideas were foreign to the Greeks and Romans, who had a cyclical (repeating) view of time and could not envision the world as having a beginning. Although a modern physicist’s view of time might be somewhat closer to that of the Greeks than the Christians, it is obvious that the Christian view is the one held by most of us. God designed and started the whole business for our benefit. He made a world for us to dominate and exploit. Both science and technology can clearly be seen to have their historical roots in natural theology and the Christian dogma of man’s rightful mastery over nature. Therefore, as White claims, it is probably in vain that so many look to science and technology to solve our present ecological crisis. Much more basic changes are needed, perhaps of the type exemplified by the much despised hippie” movement-a movement that adopts most of its religious ideas from the non-Christian East. It is a movement wrapped up in Zen Buddhism, physical love, and a disdain for material wealth. It is small wonder that our society is horrified at hippies’ behavior-it goes against our most cherished religious and ethical ideas. I think it would be well if those of us who are totally ensnared in the non-hip part of our culture paid a great deal of attention to the movement, rather than condemn it our of hand. They may not have the answer, but they may have an answer. At the very least they are asking the proper questions. Here is what White, a churchman, has to say: Both our present science and our present technology are so tinctured with orthodox Christian arrogance toward nature that no solution for our ecological crisis can be expected from them alone. Since the roots of our trouble are so largely religious, the remedy must also be essentially religious, whether we call it that or not.

Answers page 200 My psych courses have helped me in that they’ve taught me to listen and to be more sensitive to people and to understand why they are having problems, but if people would really follow Jesus, there wouldn't be a need for psychology. Jim Amelsberg Most beds in mental hospitals are filled by people with emotional problems due to lack of love. A Christian psychologist filled with the love of Christ is the best solution to this. It's too bad Christians stifle strong psych departments at Christian colleges and discourage Christians from going into psych. Tom Billigmeir Bethel is different from a secular school because the professors are obviously biased. They present the theories of Freud and the boys, but we’re also exposed to and affected by their insights— which are Christian. Dan Mogck 1. Mr. Mauger, 2. Joy Walter. Dr -Muck. 3. Miss Starr, A'.

When I was asked to relate my feelings and opinions on Bethel football, my first reactions are jumbled somewhere betv een frustration and anger. The complaints that I feel deserve public voice are the lack of support from the school and the lack of player dedication. I begin to burn when I consider a school that allows a football team to exist as a sort of comic entertainment, but refuses to give them sufficient funds and support to build and maintain a team that the school can be proud of and that avplayer can feel that he has a legitimate witness and or reason for playing. I also burn when I see a large number of my fellow team mates who are either too unconcerned with football success or just too lazy to try to improve themsleves in the off season. I consider these the greatest problems that confront Bethel football. A positive solution to both is necessary for football success at Bethel College. Dan Blornquist 1. The team 2. Jack Rossi 3.

One word describe's this year's football season better than any other-frustrating. After last year's season I really believed that this year would be the beginning of a winning tradition at Bethel. At football camp I could sense that the rest of the team was also expecting to be winners. Even though we lost our first game to Hamline, our hopes were even higher because we played a respectable game against them, which is something Bethel hasn’t done for at least 3 years. Ralph Gustafson Will things change? As long as you have a football team, you've got to have a desire to win. It’s useless to have a losing team. Something drastic has to happen-it’ll be either improvement or annihilation. Dave Asp Are you a violent person? No. If a guy hits me hard I respect him but I like to put a move on him and beat him. To me. if a Christian football player can hit a non-Christian player hard, that non-Christian will respect him a lot more. So many schools consider a Christian school a pushover. I'm not afraid of getting hit. This season wasdisappointing-l figured we'd do better, as most of the guys on the team did. I think it was mostly the offense's fault; we just couldn't move. I really don't know why we didn't have an even season. Mark Wood How do you feel about this year's win loss record? It would be difficult to find any amount of satisfaction in our record except that I was able to play. I play because I love the game and I want to win. Playing on a losing team does not affect my love for the game, but it is frustrating. For me, losing doesn't diminish the desire to win-it seems to increase it. It’s all the more frustrating when the team doesn’t win. Dave Bjork How are you looking toward the next season? I guess I feel like most of the others that went through last year's frustrating season. I stand between the confused pessimism of the past and hopeful optimism of the future. With the full knowledge of the failures of the-past. I’m playing next year in hopes for a winning season. David Horn 1. Dan Horn. Fred Witzgall 2. Mark Howard 3. Chuck Jackson 4. Coach Reynolds and fallen soldier 5. Randy Brodin. Bill Catto 6. Ed Babcock. Dan Horn. Chuck Jackson. John Ericson To attempt to verbalize the things I experienced in football is a nearly impossible task. When one enters a season with a team that is so full of potential and has such n optimistic-outlook for a good season, then, during the season, finds itself crushed with defeat, a frustration which is beyond description results. In spite of this, I found my role here in football to be one of the most meaningful experiences in my life. Meaningful because of the personal victory I had achieved in doing something I had only dreamed of before and. just as important, meaningful in having the opportunity of meeting and playing with some of the most dedicated and finest kids on campus.To most people this may really sound stupid, but my only regret is that for me there is no next year. Tim Horn Our 1-8 record was a bitter disappointment. This was the first time I've ever played fora losing team. In losing, however, you can learn things aboot individuals that you will never see under other circumstances. Marshall Shelley w©rds w©rds w©rds w©rds w©rds w©rds w©rds Does truth change with words? Why do we accept some words as true and not others? Is it a conditioned response to recognizable word patterns? Most people would recognize such Biblical names as Abraham or Judas, or places like Galilee or Bethel or Judea, or even events like the crossing of the Jordan or the Resurrection. Why do we accept the passages as true? as the truth? This quizz may give you a clue. Examine the following sentences, some of which were found in fortune cookies in New York’s Chinese restaurants and some of which are found in the Bible. Answer yes if the statement is Biblical and no if it was found in a fortune cookie. 1. Teach not by speech but by accomplishment. 2. Be sure that you act on the message and do not merely listen. 3. Patient endurance is what you need. 4. Do not act on the impulse of the moment. 5. Resist any impulse to be hasty today. 6. One day’s trouble is enough for one day. 7. Make these matters your business and absorbing interest. 8. Be cautious yet confidently aggressive. 9. Always aim at doing the best you can. 10. There is always time enough for courtesy. 11. Be kind to each other, be understanding. 12. Be on the alert for new opportunities. 13. Be careful of extravagance. 14. Acquire a treasure which will form a good foundation for the future. 15. Your efforts will soon be rewarded. 16. Let us not grow tired of doing good. 17. Pass for now. the risk is too great. 18. This person’s love is just and true: you may rely on it. 19. She will honor you if you embrace her. 20. Take the offensive—overpower evil with good. 21. Don’t become snobbish, but take a real jnterest in ordinary people. 22. Do not envy a man of violence. 23. Have lots of fun but choose your companions wisely. 24. Silence the ill-informed criticisms of the foolish. 25. For the time being you will find silence your wisest reply. How did you do? It could be that you had difficulty identifying the Biblical sentences because most of us depend on the King James Version phraseology to mark it as Biblical. All too often it is the form of Biblical message we recognize not the content. Both KJV English and fortune cookie expressions in their accepted form strike us on separate levels of acceptance. The KJV, with its ingrained flavor of historical authority is usually distinct from the earthy practicality of fortune cookie wording. The real questions are these: Are you aware of the non-verbal as well as the verbal influences that come In to play with words? Do you judge the validity of a statement by its apparent source? We often speak and listen as if words resound in a vacuum, unaffected by culture, historical setting, or geographical location. That’s where the anthropologist comes in. Who would have guessed that a linquist or anthropologist could be so practical? Our thanks to Dr Larson for the quiz. Do you feel pressured or left out by other students? In the beginning you feel pressured by other students; later on you realize that most of them aren't as mature as you. and that they don't have the experience you’ve had. Steve Voth Ye$-pre$sured to become accepted by them, and left out because you’re left out by them. Jim Worgan Do MK’s have problems others don’t? You better believe it. Language transition can become a real problem in self-expression, particularly if it’s a transition from the foreign idiom to the vernacular of the States. There is even a transitional gap between English and English, and the problem is not to learn the language as such, but to be able to function normally in that idiom. That is, without having to halt and stutter or keep asking, ’'What?’' Do you feel like an American? Do you consider yourself one? Yes—but I consider myself an American by birth, but Argentine by heart. Do you know your family well? No. Like my two youngest brothers I haven't seen for three years. When I was home last they were away at school. I’m probably like a stranger, an aunt or something. Is there a stereotype of Americans? All rich. All blonde. All they think of is money. Argentina is a country very much against Americans, but deep down inside they would give anything to go to the States, at least to visit. Nancy Hill THE MISSIONARY KIDS more commonly known as ’’MK s. constitute one of Bethel's unique minority groups. They bring with them an often bizarre mixture of experiences. Take Pete Genheimer for instance. I once slept 100 yards from where 24 lions killed a buffalo. And that's true. 1. Nancy Hill. 2. Haul Swanson. 3. Paul Lentz. Next Page 1. Tom Ycungquist. 2. Sue Law. 3. Jon Lewis 20 Do you have any advantages being Mk’s? Well, just traveling is interesting, and you learn a lot from just traveling back and forth. Growing up in a different country you learn different things. I don't think we've learned any more than anybody here, like being extra-privileged or anything like that, but... I think we've been under-privileged. Pete Genheimer As a missionary kid you get exposed to many different cultures, and these cultures, well, they may not have an impact on a guy’s life, but you know, even little things that you bring from different cultures do make a difference. If you act in a certain way. do things differently... Steve Jergenson Do you think you’ll ever go back to Africa? I hope so, as soon as I'm done with school. Pete Genheimer Do you feel comfortable here? Sometimes, but sometimes you feel like you sort of don't fit in. just because you’re from a different country. I did fit in there, because that’s where I grew up. but now that I’ve left. I’ll probably feel out of it there too when I go back, because I'll have changed in the States. Pete Genheimer What kind of adjustments do you have to make in coming here? You have to adjust to the different style of living.the different people and their behaviour, the different food; you have to adjust to a totally different culture. Steve Voth You have to adapt to the status quo of the young people, not of the society, who claim to oppose the status quo of the society. Jim Worgan I had to adjust to the American culture. Not so much the way people think, but the way people do things. The major problem is when something conflicts with the two cultures you are involved in. You have to make a decision as to which to do in the given culture. Tom Youngquist The greatest adjustment for me is figuring out social play-what is done and said and how it’s done and said. Ways of making the adjustment can be to stick the foot in the mouth, act dumb, or play the role of silent observer. Either way. it's a problem. Nancy Hill Any girl who has ever run the length of the hockey field for that 70 minute game must surely, with pounding heart and aching side, have entertained the fleeting question, “Why am I doing this?” 22 A few of the girls were: p22 1) Trish Swonson 2) Jeanne McNab 3) Kathy Head P23) l)Lto R:Trish Swanson Eunice Siebelist. Kathy Spence. Kathy Head. The rest of the team was: Lynn Dreesen. Carmen Sheppard. Jeanne Westwater. Shirley Dischinger. Sarah Rcasoncr. and Holly Reed. Any girl who has ever run the length of the hockey field for that 70-minute game must surely, with pounding heart and aching side, have entertained the fleeting question, why am I doing this? No doubt, she has looked to the sideline, seen the half-dozen spectators and known that it wasn't for the glory! But maybe at this same time, she suddenly received a pass from a teammate, dodged the opposing defense and v ith a sudden burst of new energy, headed down the open field to eventually score the winning goal. Perhaps the exhiliration of that moment answered her question in part. Perhaps the answer also lies in that same drive that inspired Peggy Fleming to spend years of her life perfecting a beautiful skill and style of skating, or Cathy Rigby to devote weeks and months of time to accomplish such a level of perfection in gymnastics. For while Bethel field hockey teams will never know that degree of dedication or ever win a medal in the Olympics, each member has experienced the task of physical self-discipline and felt the excitement of pushing herself beyond what she knew she could do. Each has known the sense of accomplishment which comes in realizing her own potential in skill and endurance. Each has felt the thrill of overcoming a personal limitation or inability and the fun of overcoming an opponent. Each has experienced the feeling of playing with a team and known the excitement of winning together and the disappointment of losing together. For the personal and team achievements of many occasions we remember our season. We remember the bitter cold game against the University of Minnesota, the puddle-spotted field, anc the tremendous stamina which was required that day; we remember the inspiration of the beautiful passes and play of the more experienced River Falls team which defeated us; we remember the excitement of seeing the whole Bethel forward line moving the ball down the field together to score against and defeat Carleton. Many girls share this same enjoyment of competition and sports which, in our society, seems characteristic only of men. Unfortunately, however, the majority of girls remain as spectators and for the most part they do so from lack of opportunity to play and to become proficient enough to enjoy a game or sport. We are seeking at Bethel to provide an opportunity for students to participate in competition with other schools; to learn more about themselves and others through this added dimension of sports: and to find a new and rewarding way to represent Christ.

The figures are derived by the National Research Council's Food and Nu- trition Board on the basis of the food ccrv sumption records of groups of people. From such records the board then calculates the number of calories needed each day by two hypothetical beings—a 25-year-old. 154 pound reference man and a 25-year-o!d. 128-pound reference woman, both of whom are moderately active and live at a mean temperature of68°F.The figures thus derived are then adjusted for persons of different weights and sizes, living under similar environmental conditions at various ages and activity levels. Individual needs are bound to vary, however, sedentary persons generally needing fewer calories and active persons needing more. A football player in training, for example, may cot os many as 5000 calorics a day without gaining weight. But if he consumed the same number out-of-season without taking equivalent exercise, he would soon find himself growing 'pudgy. 24 Don’t look now but.. but in ten or so years you’ll be looking for this page to see how you should be doing.

Why are we still doing this? Does it have any meaning to our generation? Who is supposed to come home? Is this some kind of vestigial appendix from a bygone era of nostalgia? Is the whole affair just an old teddy bear we cannot throw out? Considering our community of concentrated Christianity, we would do well to ask some more revealing, perhaps painful, questions. Why do we e-lect a queen? What are the criterion for choosing her? Are our standards for her position as pure, thought out, and Christ honoring as we would suppose? What does she really symbolize? Does that upset you? Try the following alka-seltzer by Harvey Cox. 1. Homecoming Queen Shirley Goodwin 2. Shirley Goodwin and court: Diane Lundberg. Jane Cahoon. Brad McNaughl (escort). Toni Magnuson. Karen Shafland Perhaps the most ironic element in the rise of the cult of The Girl is that Protestantism has almost completely failed to notice it. while Roman Catholics have at least given some evidence of sensing its significance. In some places, for instance. Catholics are forbidden to participate in beauty pageants, a ruling not entirely inspired by prudery. It is ironic that Protestants have traditionally been most opposed to lady cults while Catholics have managed to assimilate more than one at various points in history. If we are correct in assuming that The Girl functions in many ways as a goddess, then the cult of The Girl demands careful Protestant theological criticism. Anything that functions, even in part, as a god when it is in fact not God. is an idol. When the Reformers and their Puritan offspring criticized the cult of Mary it was not because they were antifeminist. They opposed anything-man, woman, or beast (or dogma or institution)-that usurped in the slightest the prerogatives that belonged alone to God Almighty. As Max Weber has insisted, when the prophets of Israel railed against fertility cults, they had nothing against fertility. It is not against sexuality but against a cult that protest is needed. Not. as it were, against the beauty but against the pageant. Thus the Protestant objection to the present cult of The Girl must be based on the realization that The Girl is an idol. She functions as the source of value, the giver of personal identity. But the values she mediates and the identity she confers are both spurious. Like every idol she is ultimately a creation of our own hands and cannot save us. The values she represents as ultimate satisfactions-mechanical comfort, sexual success, unencumbered leisure-have no ultimacy. They lead only to endless upward mobility, competitive consumption, and anxious cynicism. The devilish social insecurities from which she promises to deliver us are. alas, still there, even after we have purified our breaths, our skins, and our armpits by applying her sacred oils. She is a merciless goddess who draws us farther and farther into the net of accelerated ordeals of obeisance. As the queen of commodities in an expanding economy, the fulfillment she promises must always remain just beyond the tips of our fingers. Why has Protestantism kept its attention obsessively fastened on the development of Mariolatry in Catholicism and not noticed the sinister rise of this vampirclife cult of The Girl in our society? Unfortunately, it is due to the continuing incapacity of theological critics to recognize the religious significance of cultural phenomena outside the formal religious system itself. But the rise of this new cult reminds us that the work of the reformer is never done. Man’s mind is indeed as Luther said-a factory busy making idols. The Girl is a far more pervasive and destructive influence than the Virgin, and it is to her and her omnipresent altars that we should be directing our criticism. Besides sanctifying a set of phony values. The Girl compounds her noxiousness by maiming her victims in a Procrustean bed of uniformity. This is the empty ‘'identity ' she panders. Take the Miss America pageant, for example. Are these virtually indistinguishable specimens of white, middle-class post-adolescence really the best we can do? Do they not mirror the ethos of a mass-oroduction society, in which genuine individualism somehow mars the clean, precision tooled effect? Like their sisters, the finely calibrated Rockettes, these meticulously measured and pretested beauties” lined up on the Boardwalk bear an ominous similarity to the faceless retinues of goose-steppers and the interchangeable mass exercisers of explicitly totalitarian societies. In short, who says this is bea uty? The caricature becomes complete in the Miss Universe contest, when Miss Rhodesia is a blonde. Miss South Africa is white, and oriental girls with a totally different tradition of feminine beauty are forced to display their thighs and appear in spike heels and Catalina swim suits. Miss Universe is as universal as an American adman's stereotype of what beauty should be. The truth is that The Girl cannot bestow the identity she promises. She forces her initiates to torture themselves with starvation diets and beauty-parlor ordeals, but still cannot deliver the satisfactions she holds out. She is young, but what happens when her followers, despite added hours in the boudoir, can no longer appear young? She is happy and smiling and loved. What happens when, despite all the potions and incantations, her disciples still feel the human pangs of rejection and loneliness? Or what about all the girls whose statistics or personality” (or color) do not match the authoritative ideal ? After all, it is God-not The Girl-who is God. He is the center and source of value. He liberates men and women from the bland uniformity of cultural deities so that they may feast on the luxurious diversity of life He has provided. The identity He confers frees men from all pseudo-identities to be themselves, to fulfill their human destinies regardless whether their faces or figures match some pre-determined abstract ideal . As His gift, sex is freed from both fertility cults and commercial exploitation to become the thoroughly human thing He intended. And since it is one of the last items we have left that is neither pre-packaged nor standardized, let us not sacrifice it too hastily on the omnivorous altar of Cybele. The Secular City by Harvey Cox (Copyright Harvey Cox 1965, 1966). We need not point any fingers at the girls who are but ragdolls in the hands of the playful public. Rather, we who maintain the necessity for their manipulation are the indicted. Let us take a hard look at how we, a Christian academic institution, relate to or borrow from our sin-wreaking society. 1. Pace-Setters. Alumni award: Rev. Mrs. Herman Tegenfeldt.

Homecoming Concert-Gene Cotton 29 In our contemporary world we tend to get caught up in our own problems and try to apply immediate solutions under the assumption that our problems are unique. Many have argued that history is irrelevant and therefore its role in the college curriculum needs to be reevaluated. Let us suggest some ways in v hich history can be useful within the liberal arts tradition and then suggest an alternative usage. The study of history puts contemporary problems into perspective. It searches for the roots of issues and tries to isolate that which is significant. For example, the Irish-Catholic flareups in Ulster derive from previous crises. This background helps to explain though not condone such occurances and can help in determining solutions. The Soviet-Chinese border dispute is History is bunk Henry Ford not just a contemporary phenomena, but a dispute whose origins have roots in pre-communist periods. Second, a historical perspective is necessary to understand expressions (literary, philosophical, educational, etc.) in other fields of learning. Lack of historical perspective alienates the author from his historical period and helps to promote misunderstanding. Third, a historical background is necessary to temper the utopian dreams of men in all generations. In recognizing man's fallibility one recognizes the limits of human achievement. One wonders whether human history becomes the story of man’s disasters rather than his achievements. The danger here is that man often lets his historical tradition limit his ethical alternatives, a position a Christian ought never let happen. The study of history then becomes the basis from which to temper our Utopian dreams, but never to eliminate their validity. Fourth, students need to recognize the mythology of historical research both past and present. Each society attempts through its historians to place a cloak of legitimacy over its present and past and thereby emphasizes those aspects of its history that glorify and exonerate Page 30: 1) Mr. Richard Ward. 2) Mr. G. William Carlson. 3) Dr. Olat Olsen Page 31: 1) Dr. Roy Dalton. 2) Dr. Jim Johnson Not pictured: Mrs. Jeanninc Olson. Quote on opposite page rot necessarily endorsed by the Spire, its management, or constituents. past and present policies. Sumerian historians generally considered the empire as illegitimate since the gods had ordained the city-state as a government for man. Assyrian historians characteristically inflated figures of enemy casualties and glorified the exploits of their monarch in order to justify an imperialistic policy. American body-counts in Vietnam tend to do the same. Israel and Arab diplomatic historians often inflate their nations' exploits in order to place their nations in better international standing. An alternate approach will give additional rationale for historical studies. This approach will relate contemporary history more closely with the past. In the first place, the significance of history is related to the types of questions one gains from or asks about the historical data. Historical data is unlimited and the basis of selection is difficult. In addition, the types of questions one is likely to gain from the historical data and questions one asks generally relate to the social, political, and religious issues that are raised by the contemporary surroundings. For example, the war peace issue, the questions concerning political obligation and the problems of integration of minorities into a larger community are all issues which arc raised in our contemporary society. Therefore, it might be wise for historians to look back through history and find examples which relate to their questions and study them for ideas in analyzing and solving the contemporary issues. Finally, it is necessary to develop alternative re- sponses and procedures for looking at both past and present. For example, a historian may be blinded by his own period and thereby leave out portions of data which are necessary for a total picture. This was true about American historians 10-15 years ago when minority history was slighted in the American historical picture. It is true today when Western historians leave out non-violent history as a part of the European history heritage. It is true in American political history which has minimized the significance of economics in the shaping of legal and political decisions in our society. Therefore, the study of history may give us clues to the types of questions one must ask to effectively understand contemporary situations as well as suggest a broad spectrum of alternative approaches to those issues; approaches that may not be explored if left merely to the contemporary debate. This type of historical investigation may force historians to ask different questions about the past. The dilemma for the modern period may not be that history is irrelevant but that contemporary society and the historian both need to find support from the past in order to respond to the problems which plague us in the present. Or. Jim Johnson I “May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 15:5-6 RSV mm®m Silt mm ■ K fl SM}M Do you see any advantages in being a club? I wouldn’t see any advantage for the other sports in being a club because there's material here—a good football coach, good basketball coaches. But I don't think there are many good soccer coaches in the states. If we became varsity, we'd get tied down to a lot of rules and regulations that don't apply to soccer the way it's played around the world. We'd probably get a Phy. Ed. teacher who has to teach a class too. There are also disadvantages—you don't have enough money and you're hard up for equipment. Next year we won't need much money. If the student senate gives us what they did last year, and with what the players give and the few donations we got. I think we ll make it. But we can’t do any recruiting. Right nowall we need is money. Is it more like the true concept of a game to be a club, to be there just because everyone loves the game? Yeah, it helps if everybody loves the game. The problem is that net everyone loves it equally. So I. being coach and captain, don't have the authority to tell guys what to do; this is where we suffer. But we gain because the guys really love the sport and will come out and give it all they've got. If I could get all eleven players to practice every day. I don’t think there's anybody in Minnesota that could beat us. Steve V oth I have some rather strong feelings about soccer. I guess to explain why I like soccer. I'd have to go back and say it's because I really enjoy life, and I enjoy a challenge in an area I know I stand a chance of overcoming if I extend myself. I've enjoyed being on a team since I was small, being able to work together as a unit with other guys, being able to share in the triumphs and being able to slip a few tears when you really feel down and out. My feeling towards sports has become mere keen as I've grown older, and I've realized that there’s an opportunity to grow more than physically or in a way that makes your body more coordinated. The thing that thrilled me about soccer is that for the first time I went out for a sport that I wouldn’t receive much glory in. or a letter or a blanket. It was fun and rev arding in its own way. It was genuine participation. Wendell Wahlin 1) Steve Voth. 2) Jon Lewis. Pete Genheimer. Next Pago: 1) Joel Goft. 2) Steve Jergensen. 3) the Hamline goalie's broken leg. Does it make any difference that the soccer club is a club rather than a varsity sport? Yes. the leadership makes it a little different; like if it wasn’t a club it would probably be more competitive from week to week, now it is just competitive at the beginning of the season. It’s more relaxed, you don't have to come to all the practices. You can enjoy yourself it seems. There's less pressure on you to perform. It's all within yourself more. Toomas Heinmets Being a club, you don’t have to abide by any specific rules and regulations, although there are some guidelines that the school puts down. The players pretty much determine their own style of playing. Probably the biggest thing to us is that we can have friends of ours who are really good, kids who have graduated, or outside people who are good, playing. Dan Anderson It's playing for the sport itself, because you love it, the competition, feeling tired at the end, the sweetness of victory or the disappointment of defeat, the unity of the team. I think that the only reason the guys would like varsity is not for the letter, the jacket, or whatever, but for the recognition, for what’s behind the varsity team. I think the main reason we should play a game is because we love the sport, not for the glory we can get. I don’t think we re very together; we’re split into factions. There's conflict of ideas about how the game should be played, about the conduct of the players. I don't like the idea of psyching up for a game and the idea of tension that is expressed on the practice field. The thing I like most about soccer is its openness. It’s both an individual and a team sport; both aspects can be expressed. That's why soccer’s such a world-wide sport, because it’s a good sport with constant action. It’s a good sport to watch if you understand it. I think soccer could be Bethel’s best sport. We have enough background for it. enough missionary kids . we could really have a top-rate soccer team, nationwide, I think. Dan Anderson 1 Dan Leaf blad 2. Genheimer again 3.

Do you feel a sense of satisfaction knowing the Bethel soccer team is doing it on their own? Yes, I really do. It really gives you a real good feeling when you can schedule the games. It's kind of nice when big schools and big universities ask you to play them, without even hearing that you're varsity or anything like that. It gives you a lot of satisfaction. Is there tension between football and soccer? Yeah. I think there’s a lot of tension, and I think it’s rightly called becaused people like a winning team, and myself. I don't think there's much prospect for football at Bethel. They just lack the material and size to put it all together. I'm really keen on the idea that Bethel needs a winning team. Is there any one time when you tasted that sweet feeling of happiness out on the field? Like at the end of a game or something? Probably back a couple of years ago when we played the University of Minnesota. That was one of the greatest moments I've had out on the field. It was really good to beat those guys. What do you think about when you’re out there on the net, when you see one of those forwards coming down on you pretty fast and he’s only got one defensive man to beat? From where I’m standing I can see more of the field than other guys further up. and I can see plays developing. And I get a little scared when I see a guy wide open. Then it's more or less making a quick decision and hoping it's the right one. What do you think about when someone asks you about soccer? All I think about is playing something I love. I could talk about it all day. 37 Jon Nordstrom For this cause we also, since the day we heard of it. do not cease to pray for you. and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowl edge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Colossians 1:9-10 KJV CO o The purpose of systematic theology is twofold: 1. the statement of the truth of the Christian message as contained in the Bible, and 2. the interpretation of this truth for each generation. It is essential to maintain the proper integration between these tv o aspects of the one task of systematic theology. The history of theology has seen the pendulum swing from one side of this twofold task to the other side. Liberals have tended to overemphasize the second aspect with the result, that in their concern to make the Gospel relevant to modern man, they have merely accomodated the biblical truth to culture. Conservatives, on the other hand, have been susceptible to error in the opposite direction. In a sincere concern to preserve the integrity of the truth of the Bible, the first aspect of systematic theology, the result has been cultural obscurantism and the irrelevance of the Gospel as it relates to contemporary man. It is true that truth does not change: the Word of God is eternally true. The historical situation in which it is interpreted and applied changes. This is why a fresh restatement of the Bible is needed for each new generation. It is at this point that systematic theology differs from Old Testament and New Testament theology. The systematic theologian, in addition to securing an accurate statement of the content of the Bible in terms of. What did the scripture writer mean when he wrote the revealed truth of God? , must concern himself with a contemporary restatement of that truth so that it comes alive for modern man. One of my doctoral exam questions clearly illustrates this twofold task of systematic theology: Express the biblical theories of atonement in categories of thought that will effectively communicate this truth to seniors at Harvard University. It is one thing to state the various theories of atonement in scripture: it is another to interpret this truth of Christ's death so that it becomes meaningful and relevant to the present generation. If we are to effectively communicate God's Word to man. we must constantly keep in mind both aspects of the twofold task of systematic theology. In addition, the systematic theologian must work at the task of apologetics, the defense of the faith from the attacks of non-Christians, as well as world religions. Theology today cannot be done apart from an understanding of world religions and a consideration of the geo-cosmic viewpoint. Dr. Alfred A. Glenn. Assoc. Prof. of Theology 1) Or. Art Lewis 2) Or.

Oh say can you see the hole in the wall where someone very unprofessionally punched out a jagged square in the bricks to make room for a vent? Oh say can you see the leaves and the berries in the stonework design around the Bethel B or the ornate flowers and wreath above the window above the out-of-place-looking sign? Oh say have you ever seen any of these architectural oddities before, some of which have been there for fifty years? One thing for sure, the old campus has a lot of character. It’s alive and vibrating with the marks of past contributions, improvizations. and mistakes. It's a character that says. Someone has been here before you! And it's a character that will be lacking in the sterile precision of the new campus. Maybe we will have to wait another fifty years before enough of these curiousities accumulate again. But by that time we should be building our new campus cn the edges of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, just south of Rush City. Are Bethel guys men or boys? Many guys here are men. but the majority are boys? They are self-centered bent on impressing those around them with their manhood. They are pre-occupied with proving they are grown up and show their immaturity. The men are self assured and do not have to prove themselves. Pam Wester Basically, they are no less manly than any other college's men. but a handfull of hot dogs feel they must impress us all and in doing that, they have succeeded in giving us the impression that they represent all Bethel guys in their approach to dating, etc. Diane Steinkraus Should the guys take a greater role in being mature (taking more initiative) with girls? It isn’t always up to the guy to make the first move. Things should come naturally, but they don’t because people are too hung up on who should dowhat-when. Ann Hundt Absolutely—If you have men of God you will have women of God. but if you have women of God you will not necessarily have men of God. Men arc the leaders and part of Christian maturity. Girls at Bethel are frustrated because they have to take the leadership in spiritual things. Sue Fales What do you think is a mature man? I see a mature man as one who is willing to face up to responsibility and to pressure which that responsibility calls for. He stands up for his convictions and beliefs whether they be about God. his country, or mankind, and he is willing to put his own wants second to the needs of others. Jan Ruppelt It is hard saying what is mature and make it cut and dried. There is so much that goes into making a man. Christ was sensitive, emotionally strong, etc., but most of all He was a real” person-an actualized person. Bonnie Nuckols What do you think is masculinity? A masculine “man” to me is one who is not fighting within himself all the qualities he and his culture define as feminine. He is not fighting emotionality (the existence of his emotions) or illogic, or dependency, or love for colors, or tenderness with babies. He is not afraid of these in himself. Linda Johnston A guy who is masculine has strong convictions and stands up for them, is dependable and orderly. Most important... a follower of Christ. Karen Shafland and Phyllis Nordin Bethel’s Swedish adaptation of Sadie Hawkins Day. It’s the one upside-down weekend when that pressure cooker of cultural institution was taken off the local stove; the girls could revel in the exhilaration of initiative and the guys could dodge the stare of social expectation. For a brief moment all the players in the game could find unmentioned release in their awkwardness. What qualities do you like in a guy? I do not know of any girl who does not like being treated with courtesy. I feel more like a person of value when the man is courteous (i.e. opening doors, pulling out the chair, etc.) I also like a man to have the strength to stand on his own feet with his own opinions and one who has a genuine sense of humor. Leslynn Erickson I like a guy whose heart's desire is to love God wholly. He is sensitive to other people and not afraid of getting involved with people who need his help. He is as open and honest as he can be and is willing to risk being transparent. He is free. Leona Dally What does being a Christian have to do with it? Knowing that He is really interested in this part of my life makes a real difference. With the ups and downs He is there to help or to thank. He affects my attitudes. I can let guys be themselves and I don't have to impress them. Because of Christ I am aware of why I do the things I do. whether it is a giving thing or a taking thing. Pat Dechaine Dating at Bethel—is there such a thing? One can find it lurking behind scenes in the coffee shop, developing in class room discussions, and disguising its purpose in Sunday evening Catacombs. You didn’t find it there? Maybe you were looking in the wrong places: Homecoming. Sno-Daze, and Bodien lounge on Saturday night. Dating in Jesus is interaction.. .fellowship.. .listening.. .praying... helping.. sharing.. .everyday.. guys and girls together. Brenda Barth Do Bethel guys abuse, misunderstand, or fear girls? Fear-but we can’t blame it all on the guys because girls are afraid, too. They (guys girls) are maladjusted-they are afraid because of so little experience in dating compared to non-Bethel people or non-Christians and do not know how to act. Funny, it’s the Christians who are afraid to date, and we should be the ones to show the world what dating can mean. Karen Reimers Due to a misunderstanding of roles and levels of relationships Bethel men fear Bethel women. The girls are stereotyped as desirous of solely steady dating and ultimately a marriage partner. The guys back away from the whole situation to avoid being unwittingly involved and hurting some girl. However, marriage is not all the girls’ life's goal and total orientation. but they are womanly and desire some association with guys. Cannot a guy and a girl have an enjoyable evening doing something simple together without eternal strings attached?

Did you ever wonder why television cameras and magazine photographers have that gleam in their lenses when they spot a physically well endowed cheerleader? Why is it that cheerleaders just happen to overwhelmingly be girls? Could it be that the cheerleader phenomenon is yet another example of a male dominated society? At the risk of being branded as subversive literature, (and indeed it is subversive to our entertainment) it would be well to note that these ever-so-innocent girls do not just pop out of a tuba! I 44 In his book on the evolution of the Olympic games. Webster speculates on the earliest sports competition. “As time went on a quarrel orosc in the tribe as to who should marry the chieftan's daughter, for the ruler had no son to succeed him. Nov the chief was a crafty old statesman, and. not wishing to see his fighting tail diminished by internal strife and bloody warfare, he decreed that his daughter should be given to the tribesman who could outrun, outwrestie. outthrow with the spear, outjump, and outswim all others v ho might come against him. Thus came about the first sports meeting, for surely never was a more sporting contest held, or one for a fairer prize. This story is also a parable of one of the most common contemporary themes in movies, television, and magazine fiction. It is cogently paraphrased in the song 'You've got to be a Football Hero to Win the Heart of a Beautiful Girl. Various homecoming and bowl queens and attractive cheerleaders have become nearly as much a part of sports events as the contest itself. A kiss by one of these lovelies is often a public part of the rev ard for victory and is greeted by a roar of approval from the spectators. The prize thus has a strong sexualconnotation. There are other fruits of victory as well. There is the prestige and popularity which an athlete may acquire from the general public. For professionals, there is money, their source of economic livelihood. Yet the traditional symbolic prize given to the victor is a trophy. Interestingly, the trophy is called a loving cup. it is ironical that an athlete, sweaty, bloody, and bruised as the result of vicious physical competition in what seems like mortal combat, should be presented with a loving cup. The loving cup is allegedly so called, because it used to be passed from friend to friend by the double handle. The reason for its selection as the symbolic trophy of victory is not so clear, however. One might assume that there is a reference to love for the competitor. Certainly, fraternal spirit among athletes is very strong, with the tradition deeply embedded in the present and the past. The brotherly love among Greek athletes is legendary. It seems doubtful, however, that this is the whole story or even the most important part of it. The trophy is given to the victor to keep, not to share with the vanquished. It is given to him in recognition of his having defeated his opponent, and it is not a symbol of their camaraderie. It seems more accurate to judge that it is symbolic of the love object which has been won. The implication is the same as that in Webster's speculation that in the first sports contest the quest was for the heterosexual prize, the girl. From Beisser. A. R.

You usually don't think about that. At a certain point you get what they call a second wind, and up to that point it might be enjoyable. but then it starts to wear on you. At that point you're fighting your body. Your mind is telling you to quit When you get to that second wind, you don't feel as exhausted as you are. Paul Lentz There's really been a 'stink' lately concerning the value of athletics-1 suppose it's mam ly because of the scarcity of winning teams. However, since the main reason Bethel is here is for education, let's look at athletics in that idea. If getting to know people at other schools, getting to know (very intimately) people at your own school, putting forth every ounce of effort and seeing the results, having the chance of representing your school, and seeing your fellow classmates behind you 100% is not education. I'd like someone to tell me what is!! Paul Loth 1. The start 2. Steve Whittaker 3. Don Reed 4 Phil James 5. John lauer 6 The finish; Mark Anderson 7. Tired Harley Turner Unpictured team members; Dave Peterson. Jack Priggen. Paul Lentz. Dave Kennedy and coach Gene Glader 48 1 “There's two mam things-you're either good or bad. If you're good, its's the glory or praise or satisfaction. If you're bad. jfs for staying in shape. That glory and praise drives you. If there was no standard of achievement, no one would like it. Once you start, you find it hard to stop, there's next year.” The only way you feel pain is if you're running to do well, your best. I think you can push yourself farther than you think you can go. There wasn’t that much competition on the team. The spirit of non-competitiveness made the team more relaxed. Don Reed I feel that athletics is valuable at Bethel, but not to the extent many athletes or the alhletic department feel. Athletics at a small college such as Bethel, which can’t afford to get a good team (except in basketball) should be for fun and on an intramural basis. I probably wouldn't have come to Bethel if it hadn't had at-letics on a varsity level, but since being here I've realized that athletics should be 3rd or 4th on anyone’s list of priorities in picking a school, and not 1st or 2nd. “The main reward for running is personal satisfaction.” The physical punishment endured in cross country is mainly psychological. Steve Whittaker The great feeling of finishing a race-the sense of satisfaction that goes with it. makes the physical agony of crosscountry worthwhile. Being out for a sport is really seff gratifying, and you get a real sense of accomplishment. Mark Anderson APPLES Apples! What came to your mind when you first saw these innocent intruders in your yearoook? Did you count them instinctivly? Or maybe you noticed their arrangement. In either case, your reaction was probably not totally unique. That brief glance is a product characteristic of your education and culture. We have all been taught to see and evaluate in certain ways. It's part of our civilization. In this case, we are dealing with quantitative thinking—seeing our environment in terms of quantities. Imagine living back when life was more unquantified, before people began to think in numbers. Oh. there are some apples! There are more apples than I can carry. I don't think I could eat all of those apples. It's almost impossible to imagine how people could live without organizing their surroundings by numbers. In our quantity conscious culture, we assign numbers to every area of life. How else could people live in mass organization of movement? Try living a day without numbers! It's staggering. We measure, build, calculate, predict, record, speculate, organize, and delegate with figures. What area of our lives has not been regulated or regimented with them? None. Could our technological civilization exist without numbers? Could there be progress as we know it? And we even begin to allow ourselves to be regulated by them. It's entirely possible that you make judgements more in terms of quantities than quality. Think on that. It's more than a clever phrase. Well, that's very interesting. you say. Nice to have mathematicians around to show us all that.” But. math is much more than quantified thinking. It's a search for patterns. When anything continues in a pattern, it becomes worth studying for the mathematician. Take those apples for instance. Undoubtedly, your eye immediately noticed regularity, a pattern. Six across, seven down. ... blink .. forty-two. That’s not even a challenge. You probably saw that the rows were uniform in both directions. Almost unconsciously, in those forty tv o apples is a square of thirty six. six on a side. That’s why thirty six or sixteen or nine are square numbers—they can be visually expressed as a square. The same is true for the triangular numbers like three, six. ten and fifteen. Our thanks to some ancient Greek thinker for that. With little difficulty you could discover a good many other patterns in these apples. Symmetry for instance. Obviously some things are symmetrical and others are not. We have been taught to recognize this as a distinctive form. In either case, there are undoubtedly patterns all around us. The entire universe is a system of patterns. We are so accustomed to their regularity that they go unnoticed for their beauty or unappreciated for their dependability. That too is interesting. The next logical question is: what do these patterns mean? Hew can they be interpreted? Order does not necessarily imply creation. responded Phil Carlson to that question. You make a jump, a leap of faith. Math is one step removed from that. It's not a description necessarily of the universe. A great deal of mathematics arose from the study of the observable universe but these observations do not dictate what mathematics has to be like. The pure mathematician says. I don't really care if it's a model of some phenomenon but I’m searching for patterns whether or not they happen to apply to some physical phenomenon. At this point it becomes obvious who really is a mathematician at heart and who is content to just eat the apples. Those of us who accept the physical universe as true and dependable in its substance take comfort in knowing that after the calculative dust has settled, the apples have not been reasoned out of reality. After all. who would enjoy an apple if it were only an aggregate of theorems? Dr. Dale Stephens Dr. Jim Rodgers Most people find it hard to believe that anyone could possibly get excited about a Grignard reagent. 2.5 ppt precision on a gravimetric determination of sulfate, or the resonance structures in a benzene ring. And when they enter the third floor cloister reeking from the most recent synthesis of coal tar. to see their peers in the funny-looking lab coats concentrating on the phenylphthalien endpoint, they begin to wonder why anyone would ever subject himself to such an ordeal. LM Maybe it's because he picked up the wrong registration card, or is being paid by other departments to confiscate Dr. Rodgers' joke material, or .needs it for medical school, or couldn't think or anything better to major in. or has masochistic tendencies, or maybe, just maybe it's because he has discovered that chemistry is a very exciting part of life. For example, right now. as you read this page, a photochemical reaction is taking place within your eye transforming Rhodopsin into Retinene and Protein which goes to Vitamin A and Protein which returns to Rhodopsin. Fascinating, huh? Or take the perilous trek of Caren Carbon once she enters the great abyss of your mouth in a hunk of bread from Alice's restaurant. No sooner does Caren get inside than she is flooded by saliva and jostled by the chomping of teeth. All at once Caren begins to feel the zaps of amylase and watches as her arnylose. amylopectin polysaccharide family is hydrolized down to (-f )-maltose. Hi there, sweetie-how's about us getting a little reaction going.” called HCL (Hydrochloric acid) as Caren's maltose molecule passed through the stomach. Oooo that compound!” huffed Cousin Clara Carbon. He has the most acidic nature of any molecule I've ever met. Let's get out of here before he tries to change our pH.” Out of the stomach and into the small intestine they were thrust, right into the grips of maltase. Help. Clara! Oh no! We're being hydrolized! Caren was right. The sigma bond between Caren and Oil ie Oxygen, her only contact with Cousin Clara, was being broken through hydrolysis. The carbon cousins were destined to go to their separate villi as glucose. Caren could sense her optical activity as she was carried across the plasma membrane via the mucus cell's active transport system. Inside the cell, she was immediately attracted to phosphate, the most handsome element she had ever seen. Oh. if only he'd notice me. sighed Caren. but he's so hung up on that ATP that I’ll never have a chance.” No sooner had she uttered those words than phosphate was at her side. Alas, however, their romance was short-lived when phosphatase enzyme entered the scene, breaking apart the bond of love and thrusting Caren and the glucose girls out into the swift and turbid blood stream. And where now for Caren Carbon?

To a certain extent. Why? Because it isn't all I thought it was. I'm not all that interested in what a puny little man though about the universe. I'm not too impressed with men as intellectuals. Did you feel that way before? No. I didn't know what philosophy was before. It's got its advantages. I'm somewhat conversant with ideas. I'm not afraid when someone starts spouting off philosophy. So much is vain speculation. If it’s not based on Christ, it's not reality. Has it helped you? Yes. it's helped me. Mostly the interim class on Schaeffer, the logic class with Dr. Bob. and most of all the person—Stanley Anderson, (who advised me to look into journalism.) Could a lot of students be fooling themselves in philosophy? Yes. I think so. Those kind are the ones who really really aren't brilliant The more you study it. the more you know, the more you can see the gaps in peoples ideas. Joe Morgan. I have come to believe that the value of philosophy is its ability to synthesize all human experience and and thus help us to see life categorically or meaningfully. This is dis tinct from the task of philosophy v hich is not. as I see it. to convince man to abstain from suicide or to become an Existentialist. but simply to show him that no knowledge whatever is certain: probability is virtually all we have to go on. When we finally realize that there is in fact no certainty in life and what this implies, we discover what it is like to be human in terms of inadequacy, aloneness. and responsibility. And then it becomes the task of man with God to overcome, but but never to erase, uncertainty through faith. Ray Smith. Measles, fever, age. and rheumatics is all philosophy together; that is what it is. The heavenly bodies is philosophy. If there’s a screw loose in a heavenly or earthly body, that's philosophy, too; or it may be that sometimes there’s a little metaphysics in it. but that's not often. Philosophy’s the one for me. If a wise one asks a question in the classical, mathematical, or commercial line. I says. Why, sir... in the first place, are you a philosopher? No. he says. I ain’t. Then, sir. I says. I am sorry for you. for I won't be able to explain it. Naturally, he goes away and wishes he was a philosopher, and. equally naturally, thinks I'm one. Dan Koetz A lot of people view philosophy as vain abstractions and set it apart as very different. and it is. to the degree that it deals with basic thoughts of mankind. The significance of Christians studying philosophers is that philosophy gives a man a system for the beliefs that he derives from the Scriptures—he can form categories and make judge ments. He applies it when he goes to the Scriptures. It’s not possible to approach the Scriptures without a system of thought. Consistent systematic thought leads a man to God. I teach it because it supports Christianity by teaching us a rational approach to it. It pulls Christianity from the realm of myth and Biblical story to reality. Philosophers who reject God would be exemplary of the wisdom of the world. The v isdom has several characteristics. One is inconsistency, another is that it's not pragmatic (it’s not workable). The wisdom of man is always associated with a great deal of verbal baggage. It's different from the wisdom we find in Scripture. The knowledge of the Scriptures is very much involved in action. and that is the whole purpose in the study. My reason for teaching philosophy is to encourage these fellows to press on in their lives for the Lord. I can’t see any other reason to be a teacher. I define philosophy as nothing more than ? system of thought. A lot of people are not even a-v are of it. Some people never sit down and think out what their pattern of thought is. Jerry Hall And his gifts were that some should bo apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers. for the equipment of the saints, for the work of ministry. for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ, The physician who is taking care of you or the surgeon who is operating on you in an operating theatre demands competence and he demands precision, not selfishly, but because he knows that the best thing for you is that everything be perfectly sterile and right. And if you’re diseased, he says. You must take this medicine.” Now. he's not saying this on whimsy: The reason I want you to take this medicine is to minister to my self-centered pride that I know how to prescribe. The doctor, the wise doctor, knows that the well-being of you. the patient, is that you do what he says, it is not for him; the doctor doesn't get any good out of you taking the pills that he prescribes, you get the value. But if he's a doctor of any stature, he says. You will do as I tell you. and if you're not going to accept what I prescribe and do it. then you might as well not come back. Why should I prescribe to you if you do your own thing and don't do mine? Now. God as the Great Physician knows the soul that is sick and the soul that is a creature. The only true blessing and felicity of true good for any person is to do His will. And Paul says in Romans the first chapter that you may know the acceptable and the perfect and the good will of God. So God could not be God and not demand that you obey Him. Now God demands that you obey, but we rebel against this. And because wc rebel against this, then we don’t have peace with God. This is only accomplished through our Lord Jesus Christ. Now Peace in the New Testament is more than a feeling. It has that, but peace is a relationship. If you’re at war with somebody, even if'you enjoy it. you don’t have peace. If you’re fighting somebody, even if you enjoy it. you don't have peace, you're in v arfare. You may be enjoying your sinful state of rebellion against God. There is a way that seemeth right to a man” and may be enjoyable to a man. but the way thereof leads to death and in the end. you lose. Now peace is a living relationship with God: since the warfare has been accomplished, as the prophet says, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Now the penalty of death is separation from God. This was established in the world in the beginnings of mankind when God said. The soul that sinneth. it shall die. This threat means separation of the soul from God. and the separation of the soul, or the spirit, from the body. Now we understand the meaning of physical death. We marvel at the way in which God has used Dr. Bob’s life and words in ‘‘building up the body of Christ” at Bethel. Our thirst for the living water is deepened and quenched by his channeled life. 60 Physical death is when my soul is separated from my body, my body goes into the grave to await the resurrection while my spirit goes back to God to be clothed upon with an intermediary body and to wait the great day of judgement. Now cnce in a while someone will say, “Why can't you be finally judged when you die? And I say.“Well. God in His omniscience could finally judge you when you die. since He knows all things. But in order that you understand the meaning of the judgement, He postpones this judgement until the end of the age or the end of the times because the good that you've done does not stop when you die and the evil which you do does not stop when you die. Now the evil which men do. like Mr. Hitler, the evils of what he's done keep occuring and occuring and occuring until all time ends. What about the good which the apostle Paul did? Now the sufferings and the writings and the papers of the apostle Paul are still occuring to the glory of God. and God hasn't really judged the apostle Paul for all the things look at all the credit I have to give the apostle Paul, look at what Paul has done for you and me. and the end of this all will not cease until the last day. where there will no longer be any curse, but we’ll have a new heaven and a new earth. So God doesn't make the final judgement till the accounts are all settled. They're not all settled when you die. You, see. everything you do will be brought into judgement, v hether it’s good or whether it's bad. and the things which you do good in this life don't stop there, and the blessings which God can bring from them continue on and on and on. The tragedy of life is that young people do evil... next week and next year, and look at the evil that has gone on. and will continue to go on. This is a responsible business. You know, you don't do a deed and forget it. His mandatory righteousness, which is a reflection of His own holy nature—that God can be satisfied with nothing less than perfect righteousness in all that He has made. His creatures—is punitive righteousness when we fail to do this; He chastens us because He loves us to bring us increasingly to righteousness, or He punishes us in judgement if we refuse to accept Him or to do righteousness at all. Then the third aspect is His redemptive righteousness, in that God Himself in order to be righteous ... (an excerpt from a lecture by Dr. Bob Smith) so that wc may no longer be childron, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, Into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every joint with which it is supplied, when each part is working properly, makes bodily growth and upbuilds itself in love. Ephesians 4:11-15 Berkeley Version Clarion n. I. A kind of trumpet with clear, shrill tones. When I became editor. I wanted the Clarion to become a Christian newspaper—not perfect, but God-honoring. Through some of the editorials. I think more people have become aware of what it means to be a Christian—it's not a way of worship, but a way of life. We’ve tried to make the Clarion more attractive so more people would read it. Student reaction has been very positive, although some think my editorials are too philosophical. Most of the faculty doesn't get too involved or care—the history house is the most sympathetic and sensitive to the needs of the campus, although they usually don't agree with me. Bethel isn’t a Christian college—we've taken the naturalism and humanism of secular education and left it neutral. We've just made it “Christian'' by having chapel and by having Christian teachers, but the education is still based on godless systems rather than on the truth in Jesus Christ. Bob Miko Do you think Bethel kids are very aware? After being here a semester. I think that in a lot of ways there's a double life: the Bethel life and the “other life. A lot of kids realize it. A lot of Bethel is insensitive—I mean to people. So much talk is superficial—maybe that's not so much Bethel as middle class America. I know so many people here who have such very intense needs, but people don't notice them. I think if Bethel could be more sensitive to people’s needs, it could be more Godly. I suppose it has to start on an individual level. Is the student climate of Bethel anti-intellectual? Yes. if you define intellectual sm as the pursuit of intellectual wisdom above spiritual wisdom. The world looks at intellectualism as an end in itself, it's a philosophy. Our philosophy is that spiritual things are more important. Judy Harrington Judy Harrington, copy editor and Beth Jacobson 62 Bob Miko. eidtor in chief Proofreader proofreading 2. poetic: The sound of or as a clarion.-adj. Loud and clear Are students preoccupied with trivia? I think students here at Bethel arc basically self-centered-l think what's most important in their mind is their own situation, their own studies. They are reasonably well-informed about events going on outside the campus, through newspapers and such, but I think the biggest concern is with what’s happening here on campus, and I think that we've contributed to that because we've done very little coverage of anything outside, unless it’s like a Humphrey interview . we ran one interview with Daniel Ellsberg... but we have very little political stuff like that. What do you enjoy about working on the paper? I feel like I am influencing people, yet they don't know that I'm influencing them. This is my goal. Also there's a sense of pride when I see a newspaper come out. and I know I’ve worked on this. I’ve labored several hours on this thing, and it’s a result of my work, something that perhaps other people will appreciate. I guess it’s sort of like an artist when he finishes a painting and takes pride in his work; it’s the same thing with me laying out a newspaper. Do you think Bethel’s awareness is justified for the kind of school it is? Because most of us are Christians, we should be more aware and more sensitive to the problems of the world; but I think we also have a purpose in being here, and I think that it probably is justified that most of the kids are more interested in their educational situation because that’s what we’ve commited our lives to right now. Marshall Shelly THE PERFECT GIFT But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Ephesians 4:7 KJV To a significant number of Bethel students, the absence if a foreign language requirement under the new curriculum is nothing less than a blessing from above (above being the curriculum committee.) After all. they said, we will never use it. And so foreign language courses were branded as busy work, necessary evils, impractical, and akin to chewing aspirin. But this widespread thinking is not as innocent as it would appear. It typifies a world view that seems to be distinctively American. In essence it is saying We don't need to extend our eyes any farther than America. After all. is the world really any bigger than the good old U. S. A.? Be it French or Spanish or German or any language, you ex-. tend your world by learning a language. It’s a small world in which a man lives in which he maybe speaks one lang-guage. can communicate with one group of epople, and that’s his world. So your world is just as big as you make it. The more languages you speak or understand. the more doors are open to you. The fact that you speak somebody's language opens his heart and the doors of his friendship to you. A big country like the United States can indeed be a small world to live in by just speaking English, and a small country. let’s say maybe Spain or France, can be a real large world if those people have vision and see that they need to be able to communicate with people all over the world. If you don't speak the language, you're not interested in the people’s welfare. If you arc interested in them, how will you prove it or convince them that you're interested in them if you do not do the basic thing, which is to be able to speak to them. It's basically selfish when you do not want to pay the price of learning a foreign language, and it’s impractical when I want to tell you that I love you and I want to help you. and yet I have to do it through an interpreter. It’s very peculiar to me that a country like this that is blessed in so many ways would be so intellectually lazy. There is no way out. communication is the key. Dr. Gerard Laroche We as an American people have built our country with European help financially, but we look at ourselves as having pretty much done it on our own. We're a very large country, and we can travel pretty widely and experience a lot of different things without going outside of our border. In other countries this isn't so. A Frenchman or a German finds it necessary to know other languages. We don’t; or at least we don’t see the necessity clearly, and of course we work under the stupid assumption that the world has got to understand us. Well, we’re minus 40.000 young men right now because of this attitude. Professor Richard Holt but I just never noticed it. Now I wish my den had been out in the grassland where there are no blackthorn bushes. After a moment's rest, he continued. Could you help me pull out the thorn? He never expected a simple answer from the wise old sage. Well, your Highness, it may be best to leave it in your paw for a while.” said the wise old baboon nodding his head gently. If I pull it out now, you will never benefit from having pain. After all. you are the only beast of the jungle who is not hunted. For some of us. the blackthorn bush is home and you are the danger. With that, the wise old baboon turned and climbed awkwardly back up into a lofty tree. As he lay pondering in the shade, the lion thought. Now what did he mean by that? L to R in semicircle: Jeff Knighton. Reggie Henley. Bill Thompson. Bob Lawrence. Joe Thompson. Willie Hill. co o A Story Once upon a time in a great jungle there lived a magnificent lion. He was indeed the royal king of beasts. It seemed to all the other animals that He was very strong, and. in fact that he could not even feel pain. With supple muscles rippling fluid y beneath his sleek coat which glistened in the midday sun. he would lope a-cross the bush and through the steamy jungle, stopping to let out a thunderous roar just to remind the others that he was king. One day as he was returning from a day's hunt, he chanced to step on a thorn that had fallen from the blackthorn bush that grew just outside his den. Sensing a pain greater than he ever though possible, he let a out a mighty roar so that even the ground shook. His paw screamed with agony, and it was only with great difficulty that he was able to limp to his den. He collapsed clumsily onto his bed of cool soft dirt. Ah, he sighed, that's a little better. If I could only stay in one place and lie down. I could ignore the thorn. Then maybe it would work itself out.” Comforting himself with these thoughts, he fell off to sleep. But alas, his rest was fitful. As he woke many times throughout the night, he knew that something had to be done, because he had to hunt for himself. Besides, he didn't dare let the other animals of the jungle know how great his pain was. After a most uncomfortable night, he was glad to see the sun rise. With great difficulty, he staggered to his feet and began to limp down the path from his den. As he passed the blackthorn bush he sneered. What a rude way of making yourself known. Trying his best to conceal his agony, he continued quietly down the trail, but just as he expected, he could not avoid the wise old baboon. King of Beasts.” he heard above him. I see you are in pain. You must have stepped on a thorn from that blackthorn bush near your den. Yes. replied the lion with a grimace, disappointed that he could not have fooled the old baboon. It was there all the time DEBATE Everyone knows what a debate team is. Or do they? One thing for sure, not too many people have seen the real thing when it comes to verbal sword swinging. It's wild. You might say that it’s just as exciting to a debater to debate as face smashing is to a boxer. Now since most people never read their yearbook, you can get away with having a little fun with articles. So. we thought that you discriminating readers would enjoy an excerpt from one of the real “biggies'' -the Monkey Trial. (It's a debate isn't it?) THE COURT-1 will pass on each question as asked, if it is not objected to. MR. DARROW-Mr. Bryan, do you believe that the first woman was Eve? A-Yes. Q-Do you believe she was literally made out of Adam’s rib? A-l do. Q-Did you ever discover where Cain got his wife? A-No. sir; I leave the agnostics to hunt for her. Q-You have never found out? A-l have never tried to find out. Q-You have never tried to find out? A-No. A-The Bible says he got one, doesn’t it? Were there other people on the earth at that time? A-l cannot say. Q-You cannot say. Did that ever enter your consideration? A-Never bothered me. Q-There were no others recorded, but Cain got a wife. A-That is what the Bible says. Q-Where she came from you do not know? All right. Does the statement, The morning and the evening were the first day”, mean anything to you? A-l do not necessarily think it means a twenty-four-hour day. Q-You do not? A-No. Q-What do you consider it to be? A-l have not attempted to explain it. If you will take the second chapter - let me have the book. (Examing Bible) The fourth verse of the second chapter says: These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth, when they were created in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens. The word “day there in the very next chapter is used to describe a period. I do not see that there is any necessity 70 for construing the words. “the evening and the morning” as necessarily a twenty-four-hour day. in the day when the Lord made the heaven and the earth. Q-Then when the Bible said, for instance, And God called the firmament heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day, that does not necessarily mean twenty-four hours? A-l do not think it necessarily does. Q-What do you think about it? A-That is my opinion. I do not know that my opinion is better on that subject than those who think it does. Q-You do not think that? A-No. But I think it would be just as easy for the kind of God we believe in to make the earth in six days as in six years or in 6,000,000 years or in 6.000.000.000 years. I do not think it important whether we believe one or the other. Q-Do you think those were literal days? A My impression is they were periods, but I would not attempt to argue as against anybody who wanted to believe in literal days. Q-Have you any idea of the length of the periods? A-No. I don't. Q-Do you think the sun was made on the fourth day? A-Yes. Q-And they had evening and morning for four periods without the sun, do you think? A-l believe in creation as there told, and if I am not able to ex-plain it I will accept it. Then you can explain it to suit yourself. A-Mr. Bryan, what I want to know is, do you believe the sun was made on the fourth day? A-l believe just as it says there. Q-Do you believe the sun was made on the fourth day? A-Read it.

When I won, I longed for more recognition. Now I am first of all a Christian, secondly an athlete. I try to use my athletic ability to serve God. On the mat. I shake hands with my opponent and say. God bless you.” He knows that I am a Christian and I have to perform with my best effort. If I don’t, my opponent will have no respect for me—he may never want to ask into his life the God whom I serve. Fred Witzgall 72 I enjoy hard physical competition just as some people enjoy scholastical competition. When a person is defeated there is a feeling of giving up along with disillusionment with all aspects of the sport. This makes the sport doubly complicated, exertion physically and also exertion mentally. Mental exertion involves trying to get psyched for your third match in one day when your body tells you you've had enough after the second period in the first match. Winning is a feeling of accomplishment so much so that two weeks of hard work is v ell worth a single win. It’s the two weeks of hard work and a loss that is hard to take. Dave Ekbom Every week it is the same story— skipping meals, working out in sweat suits, running those extra stairs— trying to sweat out and burn off those last few stubborn pounds before the official weigh-in. Instead of a wrestling team we become professional weight-watchers. Instead of practicing to perfect moves and technique, we are motivated to work because we ate too much last night. The excitement and thrill of wrestling suddenly becomes drudging and a pain after a few days of semi-starvation. Again and again, week after week, year after year. I ask myself why am I doing this?, why lose weight?, v hy wrestle? The answers are not easy to come by. There is some intangible motivating force that drives a person, even though it will involve hours of work and needless sacrifices. Dave Peterson 73 Try humming this note. Impossible, when removed from its prescribed context of a few horizontal lines. But within that context, it can evoke a unified response that encompasses geography and history.

There are different people that I talk to. They ask me all kinds of questions. How do you think you will be received when you get home? Definitely, very well. Do you think that American students are preoccupied with trivial things, and have a small view of the world? Yes. I really do. Some students I talk to ask me where my country is. And they are in college? Do you think that is because Americans think they are superior, and aren’t concerned with the rest of the world? Yes. everyone of them has the feeling that Americans are the best. Even when they are in my country they have that attitude. And that really bugs me. Jeed urobi.

Yes. some of them have this attitude. It's quite hard to know whether they want to know you or your culture. Do you think that Americans have the attitude that they and their culture are superior to other people and cultures? Some of them really think that the American way is the only way. They want you to fit in the mold yourself, nstead of respecting our way of doing things. In this I think they are quite narrowminded. Sometimes they even tease me about our culture. It's not hard to adapt to the climate or to the food here; that's not the problem. The hardest thing for me to adapt to is the people, how to fit into the group. Up to now. I think I am still a failure in this way. I find that I cannot fit into the group: part of the time I can't understand what they are thinking.

Bethel has good fan support and has seemed to boost its caliber of ball-playing as far as its win-loss record and schedule shows. With new facilities coming. I think it's good. What do you think of financial aid for athletes? It helps in some cases. I guess, but it's not a crucial thing, as far my experience shows. The college I transferred from was offering no athletic scholarships as such, but have won their conference two out of the last three years. They've gone to Kansas City, also. Gordie Wahlberg The attitude toward basketball is good. The team had good harmony for most of the year, and we also played well most of the year. The schedule and the presence of conference games bolsters the basketball program, and the fans seem to be very receptive to basketball. Jim Delich I enjoy playing basketball, and that is the reason I go out for the sport.

Sometimes we do not realize that it has only been in recent history that men other than a few selected scribes could do such a thing. Sometimes we forget that some people even now would give a lot to be able to scrawl their name or read a sentence. Sometimes we forget that words and pens change lives and history. “Society applauds the aggressive male but allows fewer and fewer opportunities for him to be physically aggressive. Man attributes some of his problems to the increase in population and the consequent necessity of living in close proximity to others. Proximity itself may have only a limited effect; more significant is the requirement for restrictive regulation in a society which nevertheless emphasizes competition. Sports are one of the last outposts where physical aggression has an established, acceptable place in our culture. From Beisser, A.R. The Madness in Sports, 1967.

After my clumsy opening. I’d like to interview you for the Spire.” he grinned with his Swedish potatoe face. Hey. let’s have a game of horse.” he challenged. I knew he'd win. but probably that was his way of warming up to people. What’s your name?” he said. Bounce. Bounce. Darrel.” Did your father go here? No. I’m the first one. Where are you from? Connecticut. Are you from Bristol? No. about fifteen miles from there. Oh. v ell I know John Dischinger in Bristol. Yeah, so do I. Getting down to business (I thought). I said, almost regretting my officiality, What do you like most about Bethel? What I like most is being with the students. There's a nice spirit among them.” Are they just the same as they used to be?” They're yust (just) as nice, some better. The old timers sometimes acted like they were doing the school a favor. Now they got the money, and they can be free. Before you had to do everything to keep them here. Everything was so tight then.” Hedging. I asked about his adventurous arrival to the United States. Being a sailor and getting left alone in New York City, and all that. Oh. everyone knows all that. he said. What will happen when the campus moves? I said. still not relaxed. I’ll stay if I can. A place where you live for thirty years, you know every corner. Even if there's new people, it's still the same. I like everything I'm doing. I don't think there's anything I haven't done. I used to hang out the linen .. .but I still like it. ( He's loosening up. I thought to myself.) I don't know if there v as a day last year when I was home sick. I had an operation a couple of years ago. but I don't call that sick—just had to get fixed up. They just made me more sick in the hospital.” We had finished our game of horse. He won. After a brief pause, that same grin came to his face. Oh. that's enough. As I was putting on my coat, he interrupted, You know, years ago I used to get up at four and get the furnace ready. By eleven o'clock I was all done, so I used to get the basketballs out. There wasn’t anybody to take care of the gym like now. I used to shoot baskets with the students. We said parting words shortly after and separated.. I walked out the gym door thinking that I was pretty good at relating to people, not realizing as Eric seemed to. that relating has more to do with being than asking. I What single thing probably bugs you the most that students do? Breaking windows and then not telling you, or what? Well, the idea of not telling is not so bad. but breaking windows because of carelessness is bad. Being destructive. . oh, picking up a snowball and throwing it at a window knowing they might break it. and things like that ... oh, overloading our circuits. Do you think students are kind of not really aware of what it costs to buy things and repair things? I suppose they’re not really aware of it. although when they buy things, it must cost them a little money. What do maintenance men think about things like Founder’s Week because you have to run around and do all sorts of things you don’t usually do? We love Founder's Week; I think that’s one of the most thrilling periods there is. as far as I’m concerned. A little extra work isn't too bad if you don't get under too much pressure.

Many couldn’t be bothered because they're too busy with other things. And I guess many think it's unfeminine and strictly for PE majors. I think it teaches each girl a lot in the area of relationships with other people. You learn to win and lose graciously-(good sportsmanship)-and how to work together as a team. Non-athletes miss the exercise, fellowship with Bethel team members and those at other schools, and the chance of working with two of the best coaches around (Miss Brownlee and Miss Morgan). And of course, all the fun. If you win. naturally you feel great. If you lose, you either feel as though you could’ve done better or that you tried your best and the other team had every reason to be admired for their excellent playing.

Dave Peterson More maturity is expected from the kids at New Dorm, because of the type of atmosphere. Some of the things that have happened this year, like the raid, have really been looked down on. Older people get to live here, and there is expected maturity that comes with the privileges and responsibilities. A new dor-mer What do you suppose they will call “new dorm” when it becomes “old dorm”? I like the separation from the old campus and the city. I like to walk around outside in the woods. Andy Peterson It is more peaceful. Diane Johnson It has a lot better atmosphere. It's coed and it’s more unified. We are more unified probably because we are isolated. It's also a lot nicer dorm. Barb Peterson It’s unique in that there's guys and girls, but it's not really, because you don't see them anymore than if you were in on the old campus ... unless you are a real social bug and sit out in the lounge every night looking for someone.

I suppose the ministries are the same because their main goal is to minister to others about Christ. I think the College Choir doesn't sing as many religious songs, like they've been working with the Minnesota Orchestra this year and going to Chicago, and it's a different kind of ministry. We’ve been boing to the churches and have a regular program that we give for the people. Keeping in mind that our goal is to go out and sing to others about Christ. I think that's what my goal would be. too, and besides. I like to sing, and I really enjoy getting to know the girls in the choir. Betty Tyberg Each of the musical organizations at Bethel has a particular and unique purpose and ministry. Women's Choir's ministry is on a personal level. Our program is based on a spiritual theme. The songs chosen are ones that relate to the theme, but more importantly, relate to the listener. Our program includes oral recitation of Bible verses and personal testimonies. We have an easy-going atmosphere in Women's Choir. Mr. Mogck best summed it up when he said. I'm not a legalist. I operate under grace, not under law. Sure, we re not the most musically accomplished group on campus, but we're concerned about more than music. We care about the people who are in our audience and we want them to know we care about Christ. I especially appreciated our 1970-71 theme verse. That in all things HE might have the pre-eminence. (Colossians 1:18) Sandi Hallquist Women's Choir is one opportunity to present Christ. I really appreciate our time of prayer before concerts. The devotions create a unity and help us think about what we are doing and singing. Merilee Devery The perfection of performance is net as important as the Spirit's message which we try to convey. We are in an atmosphere of understanding, compassion, and concern, and Mr. Mogck creates this atmosphere Mary Beth Williams Left: Dr. Mogck directs a midafternoon practice. Right: the girls sing in a mid-97 afternoon practice. People come ir and give him static-that's how Dan Peterson describes his job as Christian Service Director. Technically, he's in charge of gospel team work and local church work-getting kids involved, lining up and organizing groups to fill requests from churches, working with the Salvation Army and the Union Gospel Mission. Bethel students are offered opportunities to work in Christian Service at the beginning of each year Most Christian schools require Christian Service: Dan says. Required service is good in that it gets more kids involved-and each Christian should be involved in some way-1 can't see going to a Christian school purely for education. But it probably wouldn't work here. It's contrary to Bethel's open-mindedness on things I ke compulsory chapel. We're serving because we want to. not because we have to. p 98: 1 Dan Peterson.

He has a model railroad collection and enjoys making home movies, but he has so little time to relax that he usually spends it sitting downstairs waiting for retirement. He has a 13 year old poodle named Mitzi. He likes to play golf, but only gets to go about three times a year. Whenever he’s in town, he’s at the European Health Spa every morning at 7 A.M. Traveling takes about one third of his time. He feels badly about having less contact with the students than he’s used to.. he’d rather be with the kids than have to V do what he has to do. His duties now don’t allow him the privilege of being known as a person by the students.

Interim is that time of year when students and faculty are more free to experiment with the “learning process”. It has to do with initiative, voluntary responsibility, and experience.

Track taught me discipline. There were many times when I wanted to just quit and hang it all up. But I forced myself to go on. and now I'm glad I did it. John Peterson In track you can compete in any event and get whatever reward you earn. There's no one else to depend on or blame for the losses. I've had to learn to be satisfied with being average and yet not giving up all pride and allowing myself to do less than my best. Dave Asp Speech and Drama We are attempting to bring drama full circle. Western drama as we know it had its beginning in the medieval church. It was a teaching type of theatre because many could not read. The theatre left the church and went on its secular way. All read today, but words alone have become meaningless by over-use. Christian communicators must bring God's message visually as well as by word that men may be stimulated to consider the claims of God. Drama can be used in this way. but a tool must have a skilled operator -and this is what we are about in drama at Bethel-God's man teaching and preaching God's Word through drama.

RonT I think it’s very difficult for the station because of the situation of inconsistant programming. Kids start out really excited, but then they quit showing up for programs. The people who work there can do whatever they want—there is no pressure to make them accept any responsibility. Maybe having a class in it would help if it was handled properly. WBCS could be used as an applied speech course—instead of debate, etc. Outside of sports, there isn't much support for the station; for one thing, it's technically weak. Most of the equipment has been donated— it was started originally by a gift of some senior class. In order to do anything, you have to have some kids who are serious about work i ng on it. and you have to give them some kind of credit. Rich Zaderaka-WBCS Personaly I have gained much enjoyment and pleasure from playing baseball at Bethel. I’ve also learned what it means to be frustrated and to work to pull yourself out of a slump. I've also come to know about f fteen guys really well and shared and grown with them. Dave Pearson I think the most value I got from baseball was in the area of my studies. As strange as it may sound, I get more accomplished during the season than I do during the offseason. It forces me to budget my time and live a more disciplined life. In all sports. Bethel lacks appeal to prospective athletes because of a lack of winning tradition. When a small school, like Bethel doesn't have much money tc put into athletics, it needs a winning sp rit to appeal to the athletes. If I had to choose only one factor that could improve baseball, it would be the winning tradition. Marshall Shelley Team membe's: Dave Pearson. Jim Delich. Marshall Shelley. Gary Clark.

Just think, some people get paid thousands of dollars to do this. Miss Johnson, are Indians red? Well, they aren’t really red but they are called red men in stories and books. Tommy. And on T.V. too. Yes, on T.V. too. Yes, Linda. Does that mean that Indians are dangerous? No, we just happen to use red for that. I’m sure the Indians don’t mind. Now how about some green things? Billy, can you tell us? Money and grass and Turtles and.. .frogs. That’s pretty good, Billy. I guess turtles are mostly green. And sometimes people call money green-backs. Have you ever heard someone use the expression, ’’Green with envy?” Martha. It means he gets sea-sick. Oh my, that’s funny. That’s close but not really it. Where did you hear that, Martha? On the cartoons they turn green when they get sea-sick. I see. Well, this kind of green means something else. When a person wants something, that isn’t his, he has envy or he is envious, but when he wants it very much, we say, Green with envy.” Are Martians green. Miss Johnson? I don't know, Kathy. I’ve never seen one. People like to say that they are green but no one else has seen a Martian either. Tomorrow let’s see if you can tell us what a green thumb means. Ask your fathers and mothers. Maybe they have one. O.K., what are some things that are blue? Michael? Boys and girls, today we are going to talk about colors. Can anyone name some colors for us? Red. Brown. Green. Black. Yellow. White. Blue. Pink. Orange. Purple. Good. That’s enough for now. Let’s talk about each one. Now, Tommy, can you name for us some things that are red? Apples ... stop signs ... fire engines ... and bull-fighters. Well, bull-fighters aren’t exactly red but they carry red capes to make the bull charge at them. Jackie, what does a red light or a red sign mean? To stop. Good. That’s right. Many times red means danger. Sometimes it's used to mean hot or angry. When someone gets angry we say, He’s seeing red.” Yes, Susan. • i i: J«V - if A Education is happening all the time. Learning’s continual nature cannot Birds the sky ... and my bike. Fine, Michael. The sky is fun to look at. There are many colors in it. How about all of us watching the sky tonight and let’s see how many colors we can see? Maybe you can find more colors than me? Can anyone tell us what it is to talk A blue streak ? No one? Well, that means a person talks and talks and talks and never seems to quit. You probably know someone like that. Yes, Kathy. On the radio they said that love was blue. Yes, I heard song too. That’s a hard one to explain. Love isn’t really blue because you can’t see it. It just means being discouraged or lonely or sad. That’s why they sing the Blues . The songs aren’t blue of course, and the people who sing them aren’t blue but they say that they feel blue. They just feel sad. Now, I know you’ve seen some white things. Yes, Gerry. Snow. Good. Any more? Susan. Sheep ... paper... and ... hearts. Hearts? That's interesting. How do know that hearts are white, Susan? My father said that good hearts are white and bad hearts are black. Oh well, I’m sure they don’t really look white or black. Some times white is used to mean good and black is used to mean bad. When I was a little girl in school like some of you, no, not like you boys Tommy, we used to watch cowboy movies. The good cowboys wore white hats and the bad cowboys wore black hats. That was so that you could tell them apart easier. What about yellow? Who can name some yellow things for us? Go ahead, Martha. Flowers and ... bananas. Yellow is a little harder, isn’t it? Yes, Billy. Sometimes on the cartoons they get yellow when they're afraid. That’s right, Billy. You must watch T V. very carefully to notice that. They call that a yellow streak when someone is afraid or cowardly. Why do they say yellow, Miss Johnson? I don’t know. I suppose everyone does. Yes, Jill. Miss Johnson, are Chinese people yellow? Yes, sort of yellow. They are yellow like the Indians are red? Do they like being yellow? I don’t know, Jill. What do you mean? Arc they afraid all the time? I don't think so. What color do they turn when they're afraid? Probably white, Jill. Be ignored- But it can be directed, and educators are learning that too. Bethel's education department includes: Assoc.

Do you get tired of studonts coming In and complaining after you’ve worked a good number of hours fixing something for us? Certainly. Do you fael that students are kind of unappreciative of all the things you do? Not all of them: some are very appreciative. The students that are ungrateful, well, they don't contribute. • the more they get. the more they want, and I think this is because they haven't had responsibility in their homes, they haven’t learned to handle situations, one they don't know wh3t price food goes for. they don't know what it takes to make a meal. They've always had it handed to them, so this is why they react when they don't get what they want. I think that’s the most immature thing they do: they try to sneak, just like they used to sneak out of the cookie jar. Evorybody knows that you're just supposed to take one orange, but it’s not considered dishonest when you take an extra orange, and it’s just a reflection of how deep our Christianity is. Christ doesn't get down to real small things, and that bothers mo. It's the few that are vocal and immature that you hear. We have a great student aody really. Is being a cook Just a job, or do you really enjoy it because you're with people all the time, or what? I like to cook. I like to see peopleeat and enjoy their food. We all seem to take a certain price in what we do. He was listening but doing a lot of looking as well. Audiences are always interesting to watch and of course it’s fun to pick out people you know in the choir. Really like this part.” he mused as the orchestra paused briefly. Reminds me of some very pleasant times.” Then, for some reason he looked up with a start. How odd to realize that this isn't a record. I can't play it again. Almost with a painful look on his face, he tried intently to concentrate on what was going on before his ears and eyes. Wonderful. He was awed by the richness of the sounds. He commented to himself. But there's too much going on. I can't hear it all. There's just too happening. He wanted to go up and sit right in the middle of the orchestra and hear some of the subtleties that he was sure that were escaping his ears. The intricate little harmonies, the masterful innuances, the really vaste spectrum of sounds, .he was amazed. How marvelous that anyone could compose such a thing. he thought as he smiled a satisfied smile. He began to think that records with their stereophonic perfection and sound-proof ear phones had become a little too perfect. They had el minated the humanity of it all. ror all their technological impeccability, they missed some of the real treasures: Dr. Berglund's wink cue to the soloist, who hooked her little finger around the microphone each time she sang, the same soloist's gracefulness even when the micophone cord tangled about her foot, the antics of the gray-haired violinist who seemed to be an actor as well as a musician, and there was even a thrill in seeing someone he knew sing so beautifully, so expressively. Records are one thing that you can always get. he concluded, but there's nothing like the real thing.

THE BAND What explains the great emphasis on music at Bethel? Christian service. I think Christianity has always been a singing religion. This comes from the Jews. The Jews were a singing people; they sang praise to God. I'm not acquainted enough with others, like the Hindu religions, to know what part music plays. But I think particularly Christianity sings because of the new song that the Christian has. A large portion of the church service of the early church was given over to music, and it has been a dominant part in the Catholic church over the ages. Then with the coming of the revivals and the Protestant movement, well, they were born on singing. I think singing is Scriptural. Singing praises to God is a way of expressing praise that words alone can't express. Music gives this expression a greater thrust. In evangelical circles the Gospel song has been an important.. actually, we’re singing to each other, like we’re told there in Philippians 3, to speak to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with praise in your heart to the Lord. Singing is group worship. I think a singing church is an adoring church. You find a cold church when it’s hard singing. Dr. Whitinger Pictures: p 128; 1. Dr. Whitinger. 2.

The Student Senate Senate’s main purpose is to be a sounding board for students; if used properly-but it hasn’t been in the last three years since I’ve been in it. It’s taken too lightly. Senators don’t do the job as they really should. It deserves more time than an hour and a half on Tuesday nights. Senate offers a good way for students to become involved in the governmental aspect of Bethel. It’s good training for working with people in administrative roles and for conducting business, and an opportunity for meeting people, an opportunity that’s not given to all students. The photos picture the student Senate elections this spring. The photos Top to Bottom are: Dan Nelson, who eventually won the race for president. Bob Miko who very narrowly missed the same office, and Robin Robinson who came in third. Marty Mauk was elected to the position of Vice President. The previous officers were; President Joel Goff and Vice President Tom Billigmeier, who wrote the brief account above. Daddy, what are they doing? They’re voting, son.” Why do they do that?” They have ideas, and if enough people have the same idea, they can pass a law.” What’s a law?” It's a rule that a lot of people think is good for everybody to live by.” What if someone doesn’t like the rule?” They could vote against it, and try to get all their friends to vote against it.” Does everybody vote when they have an idea?” No, I guess not, son.” Speaking strictly of extramural sports, I think more girls don't become Involved because the majority-™ho dorvt, simply are not interested and have no desire to partlcipaterOthers may Clpt have.the ability and soon realise that in extramural competition the selection and number of girls who actually get to play most are the ones who are the most skilled.

You see. even the most deified works of art throughout all history had their beginnings when some guy. in real life, saw something that sparked a forest fire in his spirit: things like a girl stooping to dry her hair, an old miner's gnarled hands, the sheen on a scrap of brass, or the leaf filtered light on some afternoon. Are you telling me that's art? It may not look like any painting you ever saw but it is a beginning. Look at the intricate mazework of line. See the curves and swirls. They're unique for all mankind and history. See how the light breaks into colors when it strikes the oil at various angles. Notice how many variables there were in your putting down your thumb: the position and relation to the square, the shape of the print, the pressure you applied, the ink. the.....idea. Art begins right where you are. right here and now. on this page. We have substance: a specific kind of paper, a certain type of ink. We have an environment: light which is always changing throughout the day and year. And we have you. You are the tool, and vehicle. Do you see that black square with no words on it? Put your thumb on it. Apply enough pressure to get a definite print. If your body oil is flov ing well, you should have a clear thumb-print. Well done. That's too simple and a little naive, you're saying. But it doesn't need to be any more. It’s all a matter of being aware of life. That's all an artist is: a person who sees and touches. All it takes is a passing spark, and then there is a flicker, then a blaze, and then a raging fire storm. And when the smoke has drifted away, there's really something to see. The artist's spirit and mind and hands have tried to help other men know what that spark was in the revelation that says... But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

Director-Dr. C Howard Smith. What do you think accounts for the prominance of music in a Christian school or generally in the Christian world? Music is such a powerful concentrated thing, so many people go into it. I think the Gospel itself promoted music. There has been music in the church ever since the beginning. We have a course here at Bethel in music and worship, in which we look at the history of some of the great liturgies of today. And at the heart of all of them is music. And I think myself that Christian people, of all people, should appreciate music. It is one of the great gifts that the Lord had given us. And that's why we stress it so much here at Bethel So that our Christian kids should be interested not only in just so-called Christian music, but in music of every type. Are there any other kinds of expression that should be developed more, but have not been? Or is music just basic to people or praise? Well of course all the arts. You see. up until the eighteenth century, the church was a great patron of the arts. And you have composers being employed by the church. It was their business to write music for the church. And then of course you have the use of drama in the church, and the church's use of architecture, art. So the church has really fostered the arts through tne centu'ies. And I think one of the big problems now is that the church had maybe stepped aside, and let the secular world sponsor the arts. C. Howard Smith What is your porsonal purpose in being in the Male Chorus? It s kind of a getaway. It's a release at the end of a day. You get together with the boys and sing it up. You really have a good time. There is a spi'ituai emphasis. Some of the songs we sing are really meaningful, and if you think abcut them, they can almost make you bawl sometimes. I was really touened the lost concert we had at First 8aptist. It really speaks to you. and I hope It speaks to the congregation. It s really speaking to you. and if you can convey this meaning to them, you really got something: I think the spiritual element. I think Male Chorus and Women's Choir are very similar in their ministry, seemingly During a usual year. College Choir. Male Chorus, and Women's Choir, have similar schedules, as far as their tours are concerned. As far as musical excellency is concerned. College Choir is no doubt the better choir. The atmosphere surrounding Women's Choir and Male Chorus is different though. One will find a more relaxed, congenial 'eel in the air present in these organizations. The music exemplified by these organizations is. to say the least, acceptable. Ross Elkjer Staff interviewers: Lynn Dreesen. Leona Dally. Ralph Gustafson. Sandi Hallquist. Nancy Hill. Rich Zaderakgy.

So we can count ourselves privileged to be part of this kind of experience. And however imperfect the fellowship, however fleeting the humor, however imagined the unity, however fragmented the praise, and however diverse the members, the Spirit of God was there to show His working and manifest His character to anyone who desired to know it.

No doubt, in the back of our minds we were pleased at being considered so important. This was our big cay. We were the reason for all the fanfare. It was easy to feel inflated. But. there was that humbling realization that it would all be over in a day. And next year, there would be two hundred more equally as important. By that time, we will have been long forgotten as celebrities. As John Sanders, the Seminary valedictorian said in his speech, Tomorrow is now.

This rock before me is a symbol, an 800 pound symbol, of the living heritage of our school. This stone comes to us from the original site of Bethel in the Holy Land, as recorded in the Scriptures. It has just now arrived and will be set apart here on the new campus as a reminder and as a symbol of our past origin, our present foundation and our future hope. And now let’s proceed to our next recently acquired collection of artifacts. The main responsibility you have as an RA is to love-to he a person, to be there, to be open. The guys come to me to talk, and just from talking to them. I have a tremendous opportunity to witness Christ, to just really love twenty guys-l know this wo jldn't be the same in a secular school. I go in and talk with Dean Rainbow a couple of times a month, but I’m not there as a detective or an informer-Pm not the legal person on the floor. Since we're sort of boxed-in” compared to the other floors, the Pit Crew” is really close-you sort of have to talk to the rest of the pit”. Jim Amelsbcrg, Edgren RA Page 158 1.

The extent that our Christian witness can go into our field is a thing each individual must determine for himself. We've been told what the problems involved in being a Christian social worker are. I think as social work majors we've built on our personal interests and personalities, rather than being fed a bunch of information—I for one have had a lot of unique experiences, but I don’t think I gained a lot of tools. I guess I've had four years of expensive experiences. Shirley Erlandson Pre-Social Work Page 168 1. Shirley Erlandson-Pre Social Work Traverse City. Michigan 2 Wendy Gilchirst-Natural Science.

I think Bethel can really go with it. especially if we get another teacher. Having been at Wheaton and the U. I feel that Bethel has a special difference from other Christian schools because I don't feel that they've stifled new thought, especially in education, and I hope they never do. I hope Bethel doesn’t sacrifice its academic standards for financial need or religious controversy. Jon Lewis-Math Physics Page 174 1. Dawr.cllc Kramer-English Slayton. Minnesota 2.

I love plants, and I've always been fascinated with how they grow. Most of my classes were taught by Russel Johnson. He always emphasized how God created these plants and how things in nature are planned carefully to work together. He reminded us to be humble in view of our place in nature. Phil James There's no Christian view of politics. The poly-sci professors have a good commitment and know themselves what their commitment is. but it’s hard to look at politics from a Christian perspective and teach it that way. The only way you could do it is to say that Christians have a moral reason for their actions and that non-Christians have only secular reasons, but sometimes non-Christians have higher motives than Christians.

In this bargain we are putting up for sale an eight acre plot (two city blocks) located conveniently in suburban St. Paul across from the Minnesota state fair grounds, adjacent to main traffic arteries, with easy access to a city park, golf course, and numerous shopping and service facilities. All of these added features are within quick walking distance in this area of scenic wooded streets. Already standing on this choice site are the following: three residence halls offering rooms and lounging facilities, dining area for large group accommodations. two spacious buildings once used for classroom and administrative purposes, and a vacant library building capable of storing 65.000 volumes. These brick structures enclose a large plush lawn with area with excellent possibilities for future building and recreational development. Consider the ready-made possibilities of this offer for conversion into a much needed and well placed penal institution: 1) three buildings feature flat roofs with raised walls affording convenient surveillance of the entire area, 2) the center lawn has excellent possibilities as an exercise yard, with limited hidden space and easily lit with a single powerful spot-light, 3) there is room for conduction of indoor recreational facilities such as a gymnasium on the north end of the property, 4) the presently standing smokestack offers superior development as a watch-tower. with minimal work needed for the conversion and addition of catwalk and elevator, 5) the only feature needed is a wall, the base of which already is present in the cement sidewalk which completely encircles the entire section. Don’t Pass up This Once-in-a-Lifetime Chance! Present occupants have outgrown the facilities! Location is unbeatable! Time is limited! Price is minimal!

The vent, to the right of the post is unique for its lack of architectural finess. 2) The Bethel “B” is at the top of the College building front facade. 3) This window sheds light on the stair landing between the first and second floors of the College building Don't miss the intricate stonework. 4) This date marker is on the southwest corner of the College building, partially hidden by pines. 5) At the top of the Seminary building, this rarely seen stonework has probably been read only by pigeons. Wonder what it says? 6) In front of the College building, there is a ceremonial gateway at the head of the sidewalk. This plaque is on the right. The hand is Class of ”72”. 7) This is at the base of the lampposts mentioned previously 8) No doubt, this light pole which stands to the northwest of the College building, came about as the result of a high incidence of crime on the campus. 9) Just south of the light pole. 10) This date plaque makes the northwest corner of the Seminary building look more interesting. 11) Obviously, the front of the Seminary building, but notice the design work.

If these draw a blank for you. start looking at front page as well as the sports, movie and comics pages. The answers are in plain sight there, daily. Homeless! Destitute! These once proud academicians have been evicted from their much loved and close knit place of refuge. Now they will be cast out into the throes of competitive society. Their descendants will be forced to eke out an oxistonco in the cramped quarters of a cold walled institution unless you do your part. Write today to: EVICTEO. P.O. 2016, Bethel College. St. Paul.
