PAUL SCHROEDER, hailing from Duff, Sask., came to Concordia in 1945. During his five years’ stay, Paul has proved himself to be a lad with fine abilities, both mental and physical. This past year he has served exceptionally well as President of the Student Body. In addition, he has held a left-wing position on the hockey team for four years and has played five years on the baseball team, four of them at the key position of first base. He also plays volleyball and ping-pong. Although he has been loaded down with various extra-curricular activities ' nevertheless his studies are always up to par. His ready smile, his jokes and cheerful personality will indeed be missed by all who return to Concordia. LUTHER SCHROEDER. Duff, Sask. Ever since Luther came to our college four years ago; he has proven himself capable in many fields. He has served on the Aurora staff for three years, contributing much to the advancement of our college paper. This year he has held the position of managing editor of the Yearbook and is largely responsible for the success of this publication. During his first two years he played hockey with the senior team, but since then has given this up for more intensified activity in baseball, where he capably holds down the third base position. His studies have always been up to standard. Conscientious and hard working, he shou ' d do well in the advanced studies at the “Sem”. WALTER SEEHAGEL, Stony Plain, Alta. “Seeb” has been with Concordia for five years, during which time he has constantly shown his abilities of leadership. He is an old member on the Students’ Council and the Athletic Committee, being president of the latter. He is also the Captain of both the hockey and the baseball team. You may see him in the midst of his glory, either crouching behind home-plate or striking them out from the mound. Ping-pong also attracts him during his spare time. But “Seeb” does not only shine in the sports world; he is also very proficient in his studies. His ability in writing has secured for him the office of sports reporter for the “Aurora”. His efficiency and his personality assure him of success in his chosen calling. BILL BUSSE, Forbes, North Dakota, U.S.A. Bill came to Concordia as a meek little boy four years ago, and has pursued his studies faithfully since that time. He is an all around “goodnick” as can be seen from his many activities. In his spare time he can often be observed “smudging” away at a piece of cardboard, but when he’s through, it usually turns out to be a beautiful painting. Another of his “paying” hobbies is cutting hair. He is sole proprietor of “Bill’s Barbers for Beauty Shop”. As a loyal Concordian he is in the Choristers, has played hockey on the senior team and also has shown constant interest in and support of all other sports and activities. We all wish Bill all the luck in his future career. VALENTINE HENNIG, Wostok, Alta., came to college five years ago to be taken care of by his sisters; surprising them, he stepped out on his own. Val has had a very successful life at Concordia. He’s always “tops” in classwork. In his first year he joined the Choristers as tenor, where he now carries a part in the Operetta. During the past three years he has served on the Literary Council, the Aurora and Yearbook staffs, and on the Students’ Council, thus showing his devotion to Alma Mater. He also has a zealous interest in Walther League work. He has proven his skill in baseball, as well as in ping-pong. Val’s personality will assure him further success at the “Sem”. JOHN NIELSEN, Port Alberni, B.C. Like to argue? John is the man to see. That and thinking up odd corny jokes are his delight during most of his spare time. He finds his studies easy. If you are stuck, John is always willing to help. He has proven his abilities in many things, especially in speaking and acting. During his stay at Concordia John has served on many committees, such as Students’ Council, Aurora staff, and Primus of the Student Body. Although he does not participate in many sports, he goes to every game and heartily supports his team with his husky voice. Concordia will miss John when he goes, but the “Sem” and more important duties call. HERBERT FRUSON, Cactus Lake, Sask. Since Herbie’s return to Concordia two years ago, he has acquired the necessary credits for entrance to the “Sem”. This was done by dint of hard and conscientious work. Consequently, it has been a common sight to see Fruson burning the midnight oil. However, pursuance of studies has not left Herbie entirely out of extra¬ curricular affairs. He knows how to relax by participating in a friendly “bull-session”, by skating, or by watching a hockey or baseball game. His other activities include singing with the Choristers and serving on the library staff.
