' -' The Concordia College Chapel The CHAPEL OE THE AIR is transmitted to the people of this vicinity over station WOWO every Saturday morning at 7:30 o'clock. As a broadcast of our Saturday morning devotion, it has served many times to tell people of the out- side world of the Christ, who is the center of Concordia's existence. The chapel exercises consist of a sermonette by President Ottomar Krueger and musical selections by various groups as Well as the singing of several hymns by the assembly. The announcing on the chapel broadcasts has been efficiently per- formed by Mr. Erhardt Essig, and Mr. Walter Buszin and students Eugene Brueggemann and Samuel Roth have filled the position of organist. lt was to this beautiful chapel that the students of Concordia returned on September sixth for their opening devotional exercises. lt meant a return to the activities of a busy, yet exciting school life. This was the beginning of long semesters of study and concentration for all, and this beginning was made as all should be made, in Gods name.

BLEISSES Maybe Shakespeare had Concordia in mind when he stated that the time is out of joint. Unlike former years, the college classes returned from a short recess in August to complete the second semesters of their respective years instead of returning from a three-month rest to resume their respective first semesters. ln a few short months the Primaners were to graduate, and the Secundaners would take their places until they too would graduate in August. High school students, invigorated by their long weeks of mental relaxa- tion, ardently began their tasks. Newcomers wandered uncertainly from class to class viewing for the first time stern and earnest instructors, the brief so- cial calls of Community Corners, or the awe-inspiring dress of the O. D. Next year these same novices would with a conspicuous sense of superior- ity watch other greenhorns as they too learn of Concordia, ln future years these same students would fill in turn the shoes of high school and college graduates. Eventually, however, the novelty of the beginning wears off, and the students organize formally and settle back to the more serious business of performing their required duties.
