When asked why they were willing to put in so many hours, the students’ replies ranged from “Be-_ cause it’s required,” and “1 enjoy singing,”to “So I can eventually reach a spirit of reverence.” The traditional candlelight processional of 200 singers began the program. In accordance with the theme “Moods of Christmas,” the Festival Choir performed two suites of “The Many Moods of Christmas,” by Robert Shaw and Robert Russell Bennett. Most Festival-goers appeared satisfied afterwards. Commented one alumnus, “It just wouldn’t be Christmas without Festival.” Some of us were in Iowa; some in Boland, Ohio; some in suburbs of Chicago; and some were in St. Paul to watch the last, long, gray nights of December. 74 Change to... 40 i anyone know the 1 to describe a lel student’s January Jinnesota?

Slides of family, nature and sport scenes opened the program with “Reflections found in the photo album. The warmth of a family holiday was felt as Gary Nyquist and his “family” gathered a-round the piano and sang hymns after a festive dinner. Marine Bob Goodscll gave lus domineering sergeant (Chuck Haaland) and the audience, entertaining impressions of Jack Benny, Ed Sullivan, Billy Graham, and Chub Reynolds during the father’s recollections of his military career. Lawrence Cosgrove Welk conducted a band, complete with bubbles and dancing devotees, in a rendition of the music made popular by the big bands. Dave Hochl and “famous scientist” Jim Anderson demonstrated scientiflcjacts about air, liquid that turns people into egg-producing chickens and an energy-saving heat lamp that was so powerful that Dave wasted away from its effects. The young and the old were remembered in the vignettes “Anticipation” and “Re-alics.” Dave Mortenson fretted as a nervous father waiting in the hospital for the birth of Iris fust child. Of course, he had left liis wife at home. We ended our look through the photo album by thinking about the people who move through our lives. We arc made of bits and pieces of each of them, and each contributes to what we now are. by Sharon Erickson CLARION 3 14 75 46 ROMEO JULIET CAST Prince of Verona .. Paul Siemcrs Paris ..

Pres.; Sue Berg-lund, See.; and Dave VanBcnschotcn, Treas. During Second Semester, Jim Bjork filled Randy’s position. I Student Association Student Senate’s greatest contribution to the life at Bethel was the attitude it projected and the example it gave. The relief projects for Africa’s starving and the homeless in Honduras following the hurricane, gave Bethel students an awareness of and a chance to do something significant for some of the personal problems of other people we usually never think about. And even in the Senate meetings themselves, the attitude of love and respect for one another as Christians with a common goal was present even during disagreements. Letting things that are ULTIMATELY important keep the other issues in perspective was our goal. We went a long way in that direction, and that was my greatest encouragement.

Third, but most important, we arc particularly pleased by the involvement of students (and faculty) in the Campus Pastor Search Committee. The cooperation between students, faculty and administration which we have seer, on the committee has been outstanding. Dr. Mac Nettleton is to be commended for the job he has done in coordinating this first-ever and complex effort. We hope a new campus pastor will be found who will be acceptable to all members of that committee. First, we arc glad that separate commencement services have been established for the college and seminary. This was a significant step in recognizing the separate identity of both schools. Both commencements will be enhanced this year by the change. Second, we were glad to see more student (and faculty) involvement in planning this year’s commencement. The program which has been proposed will hear from people in this community who deserve to be heard. Hopefully, some of the traditional boredom will be eliminated as well, since there will be no one speaker” as such. Ir a rare fit of egomania, wo fho 1975 Clarion staff, have chosen to “share this photograph with you. From inside out wc are Wayne, Curt, Stove, Pam, Duane, Peter (in spirit), and an unidentified thrill seeker. We wish to thank the Bethel community for its support of-and patience with-our efforts this year. And the efforts have been considerable. We owe much gratitude to our writers-Rhonda Dye, Dan Joling, Sid Dinwoodie, Bill Trollinger, Mark Troxel, Diana Gonzales, Laura Alden, Carla Hage, Sharon Erickson, Bruce Olson, Keith Kramer, Gaylene Jones, Ray Stockwell, Gloria Jackson and Mary Norton. Of special help were the faithful stuffers who showed up every Friday to make sure our word got out: Don Dewey, Tom Fagcrstrom, Kathi Engstrom, Lianne Schmidt, Wayne Fauluk, to name a few. The real burden of this fiftieth volume of the Clarion, however, fell on the shoulders of a very capable and hard working staff. Pam Schultz had the very odious and tedious job of catching all our copy boo-boos. Steve Harris contributed his considerable talent as a feature writer to such efforts as the Fred Witzgall interview and the crime convocation story. Curt Kregness became general trouble-shooter and acting editor in such situations as the editor’s wedding, sickness and general depression. Duane Turner was perhaps the most patient staffer of all, trying to keep track of our elusive production plans from week to week. And it is doubtful that this Clarion would ever have gotten off the ground without the energies of Business Manager Peter Enchelmayer, who held the editor’s hand and prayed with her in the first frightening hours of our existence (not to mention supplying all the ads we needed). It was a very good year. We enjoyed serving you. Judy Harrington Johnson (Taken from May 9 editorial) 54 Student Missionary Project The Student Missionary Project exists because Bethel students have sensed the need for an understanding of the realities of the missionary effort in our world. SMP serves Jesus Christ by serving the missionaries, by providing a time of learning and personal growth for the student, by relating to the Bethel community a fresh awareness of world and home missions, and most importantly by communicating to some small yet significant degree the love of Christ to others in our world. By its financial and prayerful support of SMP, the Bethel community is involved in the ongoing evangelistic effort of Christ’s body, the Church. „______ During the summer of 1975, nineteen students ministered in eleven areas which ranged from Chicago and California to Japan and France. These students thank YOU, the Bethel community, for your support. Connie Jensen and Dave G. Johnson worked with the Dean Street Baptist Church in Brooklyn, New York. Carol Twedt and Diana Holthus were at the South Shore Baptist Church in Chicago. Lynn Petersen, Dawn Hart and Janell Chisholm shared their summer with the Baptist General Conference Churches in Alberta, Canada. Also in Canada were Paul Berry, Diane Roscn-gren, Phyllis Grace and Dan Olson at the North American Indian Mission in British Columbia. Jim Tjernlund participated in the development of camping programs with the Artie Missions in Alaska. Kathy Blake and Anna Hobbs worked with the SPEARHEAD ministry in Mexico. Jean Barker assisted at HCJB, a radio station in Ecuador. Traveling with the street theatre group, Lamb's Players provided an interesting summer for Cedric Broughton. In Los Angeles, was Gwenn Dalke, working with Jews for Jesus. Scott Smith worked with operation Mobilization, and Sue Lock was in Japan working with young people in camps. 55 Steve Ferrario General Manager 1972-1975 Mondale Don Anderson Operations Manager 1972-1975 Chief Engineer 1974-1975 John Van Gorkom Program Director 1972-1974 As 1 sit here on Commencement Day, I look back at Bethel Radio these past four years. All I can say is: We have gone a long way! KA-BY went on the air December 14, 1972 and has been growingever since. We now have a record library containing more than 300 Contemporary Christian LP records, the largest control board in the Twin Cities and we are a full member of the ABC Radio Network. KA-BY is the only Radio Station in the Twin Cities to program Christian Contemporary Music all the time. We feel that the need for a Christian station for the students is essential for the WHOLE Bethel Community. I hope that in future years, KA-BY will continue to be the outstanding station it has been in the past. 56 Executive Staff: Doug Hanson, Classical Music Director; Steve Rognrud, News Director; Sue Kipp, and Don Anderson, Operations Manager; Duane Turner, Sales Manager; Ron Troxcl, Assistant Station Manager; Ruth Johnson, Continuity and Traffic Director Announcers: Scatcd-Davc Johnson L to R: John Ensor, Norm Plasch, Dave Swanson, Ray Crutcher, Deb Lundh, Michelle I'ranzcn, Steve Rognrud, Bob Love. Mel Edwards, Galen Auch, Mary Tcriouw, Bev Zupfci 57 International Student Association The International Student Association ministers to the community through a rather small, yet dynamic group of people who in their diversity offer an inside view of cultural settings very different from those which form the background of most Bethel students. Many members of the Bethel community who have not seen missions, assume greater personal significance through friendships with those who have lived over-seas. Recently many of the approximate 100 members of the I. S. A. have represented Bethel as speakers, panelists, and delegates in church gatherings, other colleges and conferences state-wide and as far afield as Philadelphia and Colorado. International nights featuring the talents, foods, costumes and artifacts of other lands arc becoming traditional on Bethel’s calendar. 58 Spanish Club Bethel’s Spanish Club is an active organization serving students interested in the language and in Spanish culture and people. The club provides exposure to knowledge of other countries and cultures through the experiences and independent studies of individual members. The language practice that this interaction allows, aids in the developing of verbal skills. Campus Coordinators Education at Bethel is not defined in strictly academic terms, but is a product of social, cultural, academic, and spiritual integration. As Campus Coordinators, we feel the social life at Bethel is essential in creating an atmosphere of unity not only as a campus, but as members of the Body of Christ. The beauty of the Christian life is found in the joy and freedom that we have in Christ. He wants us to laugh and have fun and enjoy each other. In this way we bring honor and glory to His name and experience more fully the true meaning of the abundant life. Most important, members arc united through the fellowship of Spanish Bible studies. In turn there is opportunity for outreach and service by ministering in Spanish churches in the area. The Spanish Club is in these ways adding to the unity and spiritual life of Bethel. o 2o ru Mort and Shir am idfry S C Student Coeval Minnesota Education Association The Bethel Chapter of SMEA or Student Minnesota Education Association, is only one of the 30 college locals scattered throughout Minnesota providing students with a voice in matters affecting their interests in education and the teaching profession. SMEA gives interested students practical experiences in working with each other and with local, state and national education associations. It is the goal of SMEA to interest capable young men and women in education as a life-long career and to encourage the continual re-examination and raising of educational standards. On a small island, there once was a magic brick pile. Every day more bricks would appear, and the pile would grow bigger and bigger. The natives complained about the pile, calling it an eyesore. Many were afraid that bricks would fall on them. While the others complained, one family discovered a use for the bricks. They worked, and soon had built a beautiful brick house. Words are like bricks. We build houses. 2jl 59 Male Chorus ■ Women's Male Chorus, Bethel College’s oldest and most historic musical group, offers Bethel men opportunities and experiences not like that of any other group at Bethel. Male Chorus gives Bethel men not only the opportunity to corporately lift the name of Christ in song, but to also enjoy a spiritual fellowship that binds us one to another for the rest of our lives. This bond repeatedly gives evidence of itself when male chorus members of past years and other generations identify themselves at our concerts. There’s just something uniquely special about a group of men practicing, traveling, sharing and bearing witness through testimony and song of the love of our living Saviour, Jesus Christ. Choir Women’s Choir is a time of singing together, making new friends, sharing, praying and growing together as a body of Christian sisters. The experiences that we have as a group, strengthen our own spiritual lives as we minister to others. Tour is a special time because we are given the opportunity to become acquainted with many fellow Christians and minister to them. As a result, Go.d brings us into closer fellowship with one another. Nancy Reimers 61 Theatre at Bethel Christian Fellowship... Proper during auditions, rehearsals, performances Putting every play in His hands; knowing, in Faith, that it will be pleasing to Him. That’s theatre at Bethel—I thank God that He allowed me to be a part of it. 1974-75 SEASON Diary of Anne Frank Toad of Toad Hall Scrcwtapc Romeo and Juliet Caravan 62 63 66 67 “...the privilege of serving Christ in this distinctive mission...” The privilege of serving as Vice President and Dean of Bethel College was the greatest experience of Christian service in my career. It was a challenge to think through and articulate the concept of a Christian liberal arts college, the culmination of which was the participation with the Long Range Planning Committee in the study and research which led to the definition that Bethel College be and become a Christian Learning Community. I found that in the dean’s office I could become the catalyst as well as the participator in learning. The development of the new curriculum brought me in touch with all the learning disciplines and my intellectual life was enriched. Administration management had to be acquired through the years, and I felt that I had made progress in clarifying my objectives which assisted me in decision making and in the evaluation of progress towards definable goals. I never was able to effectively coordinate the total program of the college due to organizational hang-ups, lack of effective institutional research and the constant pressures of trying to do too much with too little. I regret that too many of my frustrations arose from reacting to problems, trying to solve the immediate, rather than plan for the future, including contingencies. No administrator could have asked for a finer company of dedicated people with whom to carry on the mission of Christian higher education. I was always proud to be associated with my colleagues in the administration and faculty who were patient with me in my dilemmas, critical of me in my erring administrative procedures, and supportive with genuine love in the main purpose of maintaining and developing a college with a distinctive evangelical commitment. To live with young people who are future orientated, with dreams and hopes to be fulfilled to the glory of God was always a humbling but also an exhilarating experience. I shall always be gratefull to Bethel College, President Lundquist, the Board of Regents for the privilege of serving Christ in this distinctive mission during the past six and a half years. 68 Virgil A. Olson “...to give his time to their personal welfare...” Bethel is about 1,500 men and women spending the major portion of a critical period of their lives together, not only attending classes together, but for most, living together. Many people on campus are committed to making this a time of spiritual growth for these students. The campus Pastor is freed from other responsibilities to give all his time to their personal welfare • as human beings and as children of God. Q_. —y-t— Christian Service 69 “...one is our master and all of us are brothers...” Community at Bethel is marked by three distinct characteristics; a common identity in Jesus Christ, a central focus on scholarship, and a recognition of individuality within that context of devotion and scholarship. The recognition by John Alexis Edgren (Bethel founder) that “one is our master and all of us are brothers.” is still true at Bethel where nearly every gathering from academic committees to Bible studies includes students, faculty, staff and administrators. Secondly, all of us arc learners. Intellectual growth along with spiritual maturity is a common goal at Bethel. Teachers are viewed as senior scholars who are traveling the same paths of learning as are students. Lastly, Bethel recognizes a diversity of talents, interests and gifts under this over-arching fabric of faith and reason woven together by an ordering of truth under Jesus Christ. We are not expected to be Xerox copies, but rather integral individuals sorting out and internalizing our beliefs under God and according to His Word, and within the context of our own personalities, backgrounds and experiences. In short, Bethel gives each of us encouragement and room to grow under God. “Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.” (Psalm 127:1) May He help us to sec Bethel - the House of God - as His community. Dwight Jessup Acting Dean copies... 70 ART George Robinson, Chairman Dale R. Johnson David Johnson Eugene Johnson Stewart Luck man 7 The art department at Bethel College is a crazy place! I suppose the wierd sculpture, and mud, and paint covered students scare alot of non-art Bethclites away. But underneath all the sophisticated critiques, “heavy art talk and plain old HARD work, there’s just a simple spirit of fun and creativity. Bethel’s art department seeks to help students, in a sense, become childlike, I think, - to really sec all that God has made - to really know how things feel - and not to be afraid to let your imagination run wild and just create! The Art Department... is a I really believe the art department wants to share this spirit with the entire school too, through publicized art shows and by displaying alot of student work around the school. God sure is good! He just wants us to be free and help us do all that we dream of and alot of times what we never thought we could! He’s helped me alot through Bethel and its art department - that’s for sure! rcui-€_- feJcrsort crazy place!” 71 “...a service department for the curriculum ” The Biblical and Theological Studies department exists first of all as a service department for the curriculum- Since every student takes three core courses in BTS, we feel a special sense of responsibility to make these courses worthwhile. They are designed to help the student gain skills and essential backbround knowledge for the study of Biblical literature and to grasp Scripture as a whole as formulated in a systematic theology. The opportunity also exists to understand the teachings of the living religions of the world. We want to be of service to the whole school in our communal attempt to integrate our Christian faith with every area of knowledge. Education that is Christian entails focusing the truth of God’s Word upon all that we deem worthwhile in life. BIBLICAL AND THEOLOGICAL STUDIES Alfred A. Glenn, Chairman Arthur Lewis John Piper Robert Stein Walter Wessel Robert Smith 72 “...spiritual growth possible through bridges...” It is our privilege, in the Biological Sciences Department to learn more about the creative work of God in Man, Animals, Plants, and their environment. A knowledge of how man is constructed and functions, and utilizes his environment, provides a foundation for an appreciation of the spiritual growth possible through bridges with the Physical Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities. 9 BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES Paul Christian, Chairman Russell Johnson Debra VanLoon “...these students extend Bethel’s influence beyond the ivory tower...” Students come from many departments of tire college bringing with them ideas, concepts, and influences which converge to give faculty and students in the Department of Education a feeling of a community within the larger Bethel community. Then, because of the nature of the education program, these students extend Bethel's influence beyond the “ivory tower” of a secluded campus to the public schools in the world outside where they can live as a testimony of their Christian commitment. 7 EDUCATION Junct E. Runbcck, Chairman Dwainc Lind Ruth Ludcman 74 “Literature teaches harmony, and language is the stuff of which such harmony is made.” Unity is a strong thread in the fabric of literature. The unity of threads makes possible the strength and the beauty of the fabric just as harmony of colors makes an aesthetically complete painting. The harmonious relationship of its parts is as essential to a poem, a story, a drama, as color harmony is to a landscape, a portrait, or a still life. Literature teaches harmony, and language is the stuff of which such harmony is made. If unity in the Christian community is important, its futherance will be enhanced by an appreciation for God’s gift of language and for the literature which grows from that gift. ENGLISH Gerald W. Healy, Chairman Lorraine Eitcl Jim Anderson Jeanninc Bohlmcycr Christian Wcintt Alvera Mickclscn Marilyn Bohnc HISTORY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE Olat' Olsen, Chrm. Roy Dalton Tom Stocking Jim Johnson William Johnson Dwight Jessup Courses in History and Political Science provide opportunities to study the ways people have though and acted in other societies and in other times. An informed understanding of the ways they have sought to solve some of the common human problems of living together and the manner in which they have given expression to their creative ideas and deepest aspirations in every area of human concern can contribute a large measure of critical insight, self-understanding, and tolerance that are obviously also applicable to our Bethel milieu. “ .can contribute a large measure of critical insight...” 76 “There IS no body life without language!” There IS no body life without language! Language is man’s most distinguishing attribute. It was the WORD that was made flesh and came to live among us. Language lies at the very center of human activity. No liberal arts college should be without its LANGUAGE emphasis. Our Department emphasizes LANGUAGE both from the perspective of the humanities (in the teacliing of particular languages) and from the perspective of science (in courses in language science). ------- LANGUAGE SCIENCE Donald Larson, Chairman Edmund Anderson Gerard Laroche Lillian Rybcrg 77 “Mathematics is the tool, Physics and Chemistry are the tool users. MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICAL SCIENCE Robert A. Carlscn, Chairman Dale Stephens Paul Tavernier James Rodgers David Perry Stephen Nelson Philip Carlson “For now we see through a glass darkly,..(1 Cor. 13:12). Mathematics is the tool. Physics and Chemistry are the tool users. The tool, Mathematics, is manmade and the resulting mental images and explanations of physical phenomena are man-conceived. Nevertheless, God does allow and even blesses our attempts at understanding His world. The quest is corporate and thus there is a unity of purpose, .. now we know in part..Perhaps a realization of our human limitations docs lead to both spiritual and professional maturity. As with Job (42:1-5), a realization of human limitations combined with a wonder of the universe brings us to an even greater wonder of our Creator. 78 ...an important part of the life at Bethel...” The Music Department is an important part of the life of Bethel College. It directly and indirectly influences much of the worship services in chapel around which life at Bethel revolves. Concerts by the various performance groups serve as a cultural and spiritual influence on campus while these same groups provide a similar outreach into the Community and across the country through annual tours. Almost a fourth of the entire student body performs in some type of music activity through the Music Department, and this is as it should be since music is such an important element in the life of the Evangelical Church. The mission of the Music Department then is to supply well trained Christian music teachers and directors with a mission in tomorrow’s world. 0 MUSIC Julius Whitinger, Chairman Robert Berglund Mary Fall Oliver Mogck C.H. Smith 79 To me, Bethel is a community of Christian scholars in pursuit of the wisdom of God revealed in creation and redemption. As part of that community, the Christian philosopher takes up his task of critical and synthesis thinking from the perspective of a regenerated heart. Believing that God is the source of all truth, goodness and beauty, he critically analyses ideas, arguments, and systems of thought and attempts to piece together a coherent Christian view of persons and things. All with the purpose that the Christian community may more effectively think, live and speak the truth of God in love. PHILOSOPHY Melville Stewart, Chairman Stanley Anderson Randy Johnson “...think, live and speak the truth of God in love” 80 Since man is a triune being consisting of a body, mind and soul or spirit, the activities and classes conducted by the Physical Education Department are vital to the healthy Body Life and Spirit that exists at Bethel. A basic goal of the Physical Education Department is to conduct all its activities in a manner that will, glorify God. The closer we come to accomplishing that goal, die more obvious and complete is our contribution to the Body Life and Spirit at Bethel. Certainly, the attaining or retaining of a reasonable level of personal physical fitness in a conditioning class, the excercise and fellowship of an intramural contest, the satisfaction of winning an intercollegiate athletic contest, or the discussion of philosophical values in a professional physical education class are experiences that enrich us individually and institutionally. ...vital to the healthy Body Life and Spirit that exists at Bethel...” PHYSICAL EDUCATION Eugene Gladcr, Chairman Patricia Brownlee Phyllis Mclsacthcr David Klostrcich Giarlcs Reynolds Jack Tragcr Shirley Dawson 81 “Psychologists investigate human behavior.” Adoring God and loving one’s fellows are forms of human behavior. So members of the Psychology Department, in addition to sharing in the Bethel life of the Spirit and contributing to it, also observe, analyze, evaluate it. By so doing, we especially help to maintain its high quality and are able to suggest fruitful ways of carrying it on. In all, we are deeply grateful that this portion of our lives can be lived in such fullness in this community of God’s people and this area of His service.

One of the primary objectives of the Speech and Drama Department is to develope a sensitivity in our studnets that will affect their communication whether in a small group, on a speaker’s platform, or on a stage. Because our students arc basically performers, we have exciting opportunities to publically rise, through performances, issues and challenge the thinking of the community. The Lord has given our department committed, talented, enthusiastic students who arc serving Him. and in turn the Bethel body in the vital area of communication.

But best of all, the leadership was in the hands of a small group of seniors who had the faith that our team would be a winner and the will and determination to lead in that direction. Wc are extremely grateful for their efforts. Above: Terry Karlsgodt Below: Freda the Lion Peter Wilson Mark Baldcrson Looking back on the 1974 Soccer season, my first season as a full time coach, 1 have mixed emotions. The team started out with many new players, but early in the season injuries began to dissipate our hopes for a winning season. Richard Voth, the most experienced player, had to undergo an operation which put him out for the season. This was a bad blow to the team, along with other bad injuries. But the healthy players never gave up, and some of the inexperienced players came on strong at the end of the season. This plus a unified team effort enabled the soccer team to produce its second winning season in two years of varsity competition.

Although the team was one of Bethel’s best, it still was not able to win all its meets because of the improved quality of distance running in the midwest. The highlight of the season was the Tri-State Conference meet at Westmar where Jeff Larson and Captain Steve Whittaker took third and sixth place respectively, thus leading Bethel to a strong second place position behind Westmar, who had most of their runners back from a team that had placed fifth in the NAIA Nationals in 1973. This effort earned Jeff and Steve a place on the All-Conference team. On an individual basis, Jeff Larson had the pleasure of being Bethel’s number one finisher in every race. Part of Jeffs success was due to his faithfulness at running on weekends and in the morning in addition to the regular team workouts.

Injuries and ineligibility of several people brought on an undue hardship for a team that was to have the toughest schedule in years. After some close defeats to mediocre teams, the squad forced themselves to work harder and to improve, thus becoming a more solid, unified team. The Northland Col lege Invitational provided confidence and stimulus for the remainder of the season. The team improved with each match and by the conference meet. Bethel had a good wrestling team despite a lack of personnel in the lower weights. An 8-10-1 record is probably not impressive to many people. But to the coach and wrestlers, it was a successful season in that a few losses never defeated the whole team. They had pride in themselves and were always thankful that they had any opportunity to wrestle. Participation in wrestling was a privilege.

It was one of our poorer seasons-ending 7 and 16. Mark Robertson a senior was our leading scorer-with a total of 301 points averaging 13 per game. Mark was chosen by the team as the most valuable player as well as being selected to the All-Conference Team for his 2nd year in succession. Tim Engelbretson, Craig Oslin, and Mark Robertson were named to the All-Tourney Team at Hamline’s Holiday Tournament. I would like at this time to thank the squad for their hard work in a discouraging season and the fans for their support this year.

In summary, the team proved to be one of the best in the school’s history. With Captain Steve Whittaker being the only senior on the team the prospects are bright for another quality team for next year.

In response to student interest the track and field club joined Vol. lcyball, Basketball and Softball as an intercollegiate sport. As coaches we are encouraged with the future of women’s sports at Bethel. Although we are losing three fine senior athletes, Marilyn Luce, Eunice Siebclist and Trish Swanson, we are seeing a higher quality among the incoming athletes than has been present previously. It has been encouraging to see over 50 women participate on our teams this year and to feel unpredi-dented support from students, faculty and administration. tUtsuxnJifljGL, Val Palmer 105 And all who believed were together and had all things in common..

I would just like to thank the Bethel community for its patience and cooperation as I fought to keep the “Spire” on its feet. Many times I felt that 1 was fighting the battle alone, but I know that there was always great support behind me. First, came God, who held me together physically, mentally, and spiritually as I struggled through this past year. Because of God, 1 can say that I have learned much through the experiences as editor of the Bethel “Spire”. Special thanks must be given to Peter who was always ready to listen to my problems and point me back to God. Without his support and hard work, we would have gone bankrupt. I also want to thank Ruth Johnson, Judy Helman, Lynn Peterson, Randy Landis, Gloria Jackson, Don Anderson, and Paul Goddard for their help on the book and during the subscription drive. Thanks to the members of the Communications Board, Student Senate, to Dwight Jessup, Doc Dalton and Mrs. Mickclson for their patience and continued support; and to the faculty members and students who handed their “assignments” in. My final and most grateful thanks go to my staff: Photo Editor Duane Turner Copy Editors Mary Norton, Dan Joling Section Editors Steve Ferrario (Sports),Mary Norton (Activities), Jamie Damon (Dorms), Bonnie Coyour (Dorms), Kurt Sanders (Organizations), Dan Joling (Student Life), and Ruth Johnson (Sports) Photographers Doug Johnson, Galen Auch, Jeff Kendall, Jan Darrow, Ruth Johnson, Steve Ferrario, Jim Hackett, Steve Butler, Curt Kregness, Steve Anderson, I.arry Okerlund, Don Anderson and Randy Payne Art work Doug Rutzen, Jack Starr Layout Judy Helman Business Manager Peter Enchelmayer Dawn Hart SPIRE Editor, 1974-1975 4 PISCHCL YeaRBOOKS ' Om: 176 There’s a sweet, sweet spirit in this place, And I know that it’s the Spirit of the Lord; There are sweet expressions on each face, And I know they feel the presence of the Lord. Sweet Holy Spirit, Sweet heavenly dove, Stay right here with us Filling us with your love. And for these blessings We lift our hearts in praise Without a doubt we’ll know That we have been revived When we shall leave this place. There are blessings you cannot receive Til you know Him in His fulness and believe You’re the one to profit when you say I am going to walk with Jesus all the way. If you say He saved you from your sin Now you’re weak, you’re bound and cannot enter in. You can make it right if you will yield You’ll enjoy the Holy Spirit that we feel.
