Buls June 12, 1912 October 27, 1964 The first room that was lighted in the morning was room 104. On Wednesday, Oc- tober 28, 1964, there was no light, for God had snuffed out the life of one of His humble servants, Mr. Buls, the previous night. God had removed him from his much suffering and answered his life-long prayer: Now the light has gone away Father, listen while I pray Asking Thee to watch and keep And to send me quiet sleep. Amen. fc ■■■■•■■ ijgiiiiuui  gg£ ■■■■■■■ iiiiiiiiiln ■£«■■; Concordia Feature 4 Activities 35 Seniors 77 Lutheran Academics 13 Sports 59 Underclasssmen 101 High ■at ' LUMINARIAN is derived from a word that means a body which gives light.

A C A D E M I C S Mr. Lester Baack counsels seniors Mary Smith and Carolyn Bauer. Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105 Concordia is guided by a very powerful light, God ' s Word. He has caused this light to be reflected through our capable admin- istration. The year began very brightly under Mr. Baack as principal, Reverend Oldsen as assistant principal, and Mr. Herzog as guid- ance counselor. May G od continue to beam His goodness on Concordia. Reverend Oldsen this year has a new title— Director of Religious Training. The Administration Seniors Nancy Leitz and Myra Stop- penhagen receive college informa- tion from Guidance Director Mr. Herzog. 14 Mrs. Roemke, Mrs. Masenthin, and Mrs. Wiegman cheerfully accept tuition payments from Sharon Klingel and Ruth Glu- senkamp. Our happy custodians are Mr. Stein, Mr. Grewe, Mr. Burr (Maury), and Mr. Rexroth. And The name Concordia is derived from the Latin word meaning harmony. Through our invaluable office helpers, dependable jani- tors, and capable cafeteria workers, we have achieved a harmonious relationship among all who are reached by His light. Its Helpers Good cooks are never afraid to eat their own cooking. Our fine chefs are (left to right) Mrs. Ostermeyer, Mrs. Grepke, Mrs. Sommers, Mrs. Trier, Mrs. Wells, Mrs. Hartman, and Mrs. Hall. 15 A witness to God. Religion Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened. Matt. 7:7 For where two or three are gathered to- gether in my name. . . . Matt. 18:20 16 Rev. Armin Oldsen, M.A., Religion I, IV. Rev. Oldsen lifts his hands in a gesture of sharing his joy of life with the youthful mind of today. The world today is a changing, moving, growing place. One thing remains stable and true. This is our God. God is our refuge and strength, a very pre- sent help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though t he earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult. Psalm 46: 1-3 The four years of religion are not to mold one into a white-washed shell, but they are to bring one to the full realization of the relationship shared with God. Stand up. Turn around. Breathe God ' s air. And you are His. Rev. Philip Schroeder, B.A., B.D., Religion I, II. Under the guiding words of Rev. Schroeder, Candy Volmerding and Mike Weber study the final phase of the Bible — the New Testament. 17 Mr. William Ihssen, M.A., English III, journalism, Business English, is teasing again and gets a grin from Yvonne Nicole, Dave Volmerding, and Jerry Waters. Folklore And Fiction And Perfect Diction Mrs. Celia Haller, B.S., English I, holds her class in rapt at- tention. Oops — or has one fallen asleep? No, this isn ' t biology class. Mr. Kurt Jordan, M.A. English IV, journalism, and Business English, looks over family trees displayed by George Heilman, Phil Schoenherr, Donna Buesh- ing, Diana Boester, and Donna Nahrwold. Mrs. Helen Knoblauch, B.S., English I, is ready with a smile to answer questions of frosh, Carol Bright, Gretchen Berning, Don Kruse, and Tim Scheibenberger. It ' s not polite to point, but Mr. David Ramm, B.A., English I and II, politely points out his suggestions to Bill Bradshaw and Cheryl Franke. Mimi Littlejohn, Lon Otto, and Diane Prochnow listen closely to an English pro, Mr. Ray Halm, B.S., English I and II. If every inhabitant of the world were lined up side by side and asked to speak one word, the English speaking souls would be surpassed only by the Chinese. For this rea- son Concordians have the opportunity of four years of English. Without the command of this universal language, one is lost in a maze of misunderstanding, a forest of colos- sal words, and a sea of punctuation. 19 Miss Esther Ross, M.S., secretarial train- ing, Typing II, shorthand, and business machines. The business machines class add on their own. Tracing And Spacing How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying was a hit on Broadway; how- ever, most students of business know it is difficult to succeed in this fluctuating field. Concordia prepares her students to have pa- tience and meet this challenge. Not so fast Miss Ross! Mrs. Kathleen Flescher, B.S., Typing I. 20 Mrs. Beulah Meyer, B.S., M.S., aids Sharon Klingel, Mary Smith, and Nancy Leitz in choos- ing books. Librarians And Grammarians The spark of knowledge sometimes flickers and needs to be rekindled. The fur- nace for perpetuating knowledge is the li- brary. Our library is more than adequately staffed and stocked to meet the needs of changing students in a changing world. Linda Stoltenberg, Sandy Amstutz, and Richard Hogan receive helpful hints from Mrs. Meyer. ' w ■■ ' ' Wm wK ' ; ' 1 A V J? 31 i m i™ I J •- ' 6 ' Bill Rahe and Karen Runkel wisely employ the use of the library before school. Adorn To Atom In the complex world of today there is a greater need for understanding. The fu- ture of this country and all countries depends on this understanding. This then is the goal of the social studies department: to give the future citizens of America greater knowledge of our heritage and our relationship with other people. Mr. Lester Baack, M.A., physical geography, world geography. Tony Thomas uses the globe, the fundamental tool of geo- graphy. Mr. Arthur Pinnow, M.A., Sociology, economics. Barry Dillon and Mr. Pinnow laugh it up in sociology class. 22 Mr. Dale Mayer, M.A., Civics. Mr. Mayer shows Steve Bercot a thing or two. Mr. Carl Gallmeier, M.A., World history. Barry Bell and Bev Birkman consult Mr. Gallmeier on a matter of supreme urgency. 23 Mr. Ray Sievert, B.S., general math, band, and or- chestra. Don ' t look so confused. It ' s really a trombone! Harps And Shh! Be still a moment. Did you hear it? It is the music of song, of laughter, of life. Music is everywhere for whether we look or whether we listen, we hear life mur- mur. ' ' It ' s a gift from God, this sense of mu- sic. God has given Concordia the means of making music and the ability of listening. Music is the conversation of the Angels, the language of nature. Sharps Mr. Charles Henke, M.A., music appreciation, speech, choir A, choir B. Hark! I think I heard it. 24 Frescoes And Von Goghs Mr. John Sturnfels, M.A., Art I, Advanced Art, Art Appreciation. Mr. Sturmfels advises Bev Birkmann, Linda Amt, Mike Smith and Sandy Amstutz on their crej tive sculpture. God has given each man specific tal ents, and only that man has the ability say yes or to say no to the use of these powers. Art is a talent. It is the ability to ex press in lines, curves, shades, textures, and colors what the inner man is seeing Concordia offers courses in art to help the individual develop his gift toffhe glory of God and to the edification of rais own soul. Whether you are a Poussin or a Picasso, a West or a Wyeth, a Rembrand or a Renee, a traditionalist or a contempoijist, your tal- ( ent is from God. Use it to capacity. For Him Richard Ferber, Ron Gaze, and Linda McClure try their hand at ceramics. 25 Precision And Division Mrs. Anne Retrum, B.S., Algebra I. Man has progressed, in the logical land of mathematics, from fingers and toes to the abacus and slide rule. You and I, as men of the sphere, have profited and prospered in this progression. Mathematics is reality. It is reason. The world without mathematics would not be here nor there but suspended, motionless, somewhere in the imaginations of a weird hallucination. Mr. Donald Reinking, B.S., Algebra II, plane geometry. 26 Mr. Donald Gayer, B.S., physics, trigonometry, analytic geometry, and plane geometry. Mr. Richard Rick B.S., Algebra I., geometry. ' Hey, Mark, what ' s number 25? ' 27 Formations And Translations Are you sure this is the way to Berlin? Mr. Eugene Falk- enstern, B.A., B.S., German I, II, III explains Berlin to Randy Dow and Kathy Fritsch. Mike Elmore, Faye Menking, Judy Lange and Larry Nord, true Romans, discuss what to do with the Freshmen, Let ' s throw them to the Lions! One never really understands another unless the same language is spoken. Whe- ther it be slang or formal, Latin or German, language is the key to the insight of another. Without this comprehension of communica- tion, one lives in the tumult of Babel ' s Tower. Mrs. Shirley Miller, A.B., Latin I, II, III, IV, tells Tony Thomas and Debbie Gerke about the journey of Aeneas. 28 In the world of tomorrow, machines will take over all man ' s calculating proce- dures. The role of mother-hood and home- making though, will never be replaced. With- out this position in society, great-men would never have been great and important battles would never have been won. The woman of tomorrow lives in an empty vacuum if she lacks the knowledge needed to fulfill the lives of others. Oven Baking And Home Making Yvonne, Sandy is supposed to get out of bed, then you make it! Mrs. Lois Roop, B.S., Home Eco- nomics I, II, III. Brave young housewives to be- Kathy Busch, Linda Tellman and Vicki Harwood-try a new recipe. 29 These Cadets march under the approving eye of Lt. Col. van Oostan. V The military department at Concordia not only developes the leadership quality in our Cadets, but also the ability to follow orders. The boys study everything from the make-up of the M-l rifle to the principles of modern warfare. Under the direction of Col. van Oosten, they prepare for their future as the leaders of tomorrow. Lot Of Shots And Tons Of Guns Lt. Col. van Oosten, Professor of Military Science, Military I, II, III, IV. 30 Biology To Entomology Science has quickly attained an im- portant pedestal in today ' s progress. Biolo- gists, chemists, and physicists have combined their knowledge to make our world a safer place. Concordia teaches a wide variety of scientific studies. From leaves to leeches, bugs to butternut trees, atoms to arsenic, and microbes to meters, Concordia offers a sci- ence course. Bv lf B to yt-t j L - U ■11 m ; T-t- tnE% 1 s- __- ■ M. V :| Mr. Ray Huebschman, B.S., biology. As these young scientists delve into the fathomable world of micro- scopic matter, Mr. Huebschman benevolently looks on. Mr. Jon Anderson, B.S., Chemistry I, ad- vanced chemistry. Mr. Anderson in his ele- ments explains the atomic number of bro- mium to Jean and Jane Dammeier, Jan Messmann, and Jim Koeneman. Balls And Falls Mrs. Karen Blank, B.S., girls ' Physical Education I and II, U.S. history. Like the ancient Athenians, Concordia strives to develop the body as well as the intellect. Through strenuous calisthenics and competitive contests, muscles are stretched and bodies are con- ditioned. Concordia has a new gym and a spacious stadium, for she believes in the age-old adage that a physically active body in- duces a mentally alert mind. I say, boys, since when have you be- gun to study modern dance? Mrs. Blank points out the direction in which Mary Tomey is to kick the ball. 32 Mr. Glenn Parrish, B.S., boys ' physical education, Typing I., personal typing, busi- ness mathematics. I ' ve got it! ' Mr. William Koch, M.S., boy ' s physical education, health and safety, bookkeeping. Mr. Jack Massucci, M.S., boys ' physical education, U.S. history. 33 Take an average man, a piece of paper, and a pencil. At the end of an hour or two the paper might have a name, a note, or scribbles on it; but with the aid of industrial arts, man capably changes that ordinary piece of paper into a building, a bridge, or a complex mechanism. Industrial arts teaches man the intricacies and expectations of industry. Drawing And Sowing Mr. Panning ' s mechanical drawing class hard at work. Mr. Harold Panning, B.S., M.A., industrial arts, shop, mechanical drawing, explains his corrections to Jim Soest and Kirk Faylor. Do you really think you ' re going to get a sailboat out of that, Mr. Panning? 34 1301839 Beacons — Advertising Staff guided by Diane Graft. Luminarian Member of Quill and Scroll Society The 1964-65 yearbook staff attempted to show the diffusion of light throughout the school and into the world. Through the organizational set-up of a staff ' s community effort, this goal was ac- complished, and a LUMINARIAN emerged. Transmitters — Luminarian homeroom representa- tives led by Faye Men- king. Generators — literary staff headed by the editor Ruth Glusenkamp. Radiant Initiators Conductors So here is a gift, a present of sorts. Go ahead; touch it. Open it; read it. You see, it ' s a box. We filled it with laughter and tears, joy and sorrow. We stuffed in solitary moments and compatible moments, studious moments and carefree moments. We sprinkled in faces of friends, faces of strangers. We permeated it with life and a small corner of death. We loaded, packaged, enclosed our box,- and still it was not full. Treasure your box: it ' s all we have to offer. Fill your box: it needs life and soul, names and thoughts. 37 Names and Thoughts Student Council Concordia is a small replica of that freedom we call democracy. ' ' The House of Representatives carries out the will of its constituents to the best inter- ests of all. Under the guidance of sen- iority, the Speaker of the House leads the representatives, the constituents, and the school. The Student Council officers are I. to r.: Jim Kanning, vice-president; Cindy Dixon, secre- tary; Steve Katt, president; and Phil Schoenherr, treasurer. Steve Katt, president, opens a Student Council meeting. 38 Twenty-four minds; (front row I. to r.)

Notional Honor Society Twenty-four. It is a stunted number when there are twenty-four bricks out of the Empire State Building, twenty-four words out of ANNA KARENINA, and twenty-four people out of China. But it is a Titanic number when there are twenty-four skyscrapers in the Yuko n, twenty- four words of a Laconian, and twenty-four minds in the National Honor Society, the top 15% of the senior class. Out of these twenty-four minds there are four who hold semi-finalist positions in the National Merit Tests. Four is a proportionately immense number. Martha Banks, Mark Knoblauch, Ken Lehmker, and Liz Lindemann examine the announcements of their semi-finalist positions in the National Merit Tests. 39 Under the guidance of Mrs. Meyer and the presi- dent Dave Lindquist, these service librarians con- tribute their servitude to society. Along with service to others travels service to property. The Librarians ' Club represents this responsibility with its care of the library facilities. Service Organizations: Junior Red Cross And Librarians ' Club Service to others — the by-word of every Christian. One of the numerous paths to trod on towards this demonstration of kindness is the Junior Red Cross, a growing part of Concordia and a growing form of Christian example. Donna Nahrwold, treasurer; Betsy Etzold, president; Barb Shilling, vice-president; and Shirley Merkle, secretary, lead the hands of helpfulness. The Junior Red Cross — a public utility. Senior members seated are: T. Schneider, E. Lindemann, K. Runkel, R. Glusenkamp, F. Men- king, and B. Birkman. Standing are: M. Knob- lauch, D. Denninger, T. Essig, C. Bauer, C. Al- bers, J. Reitz, L. Nord, and L Gorrel. Gommo Rho Delta Gamma Rho Delta, three Greek words meaning read- ing, writing, and rhetoric, stand for the honorary English club Concordia. This organization is composed of fifteen seniors and ten juniors showing exceptional interest and ability in the language arts. Meetings are held monthly in the members ' homes, where topics dealing with litera- ture, drama, and art are discussed. At the banquet held annually in the spring, new members are initiated into the group. The officers of G.R.D. are Larry Gorrel, Vice President; Mark Knoblauch, Secretary; Karen Runkel, President; and Larry Willig, Treasurer. Junior members seated are: J. Marhenke, K. Schoenefeld, and S. Wolf. Standing are: L. Rodenbeck, C. Bercot, M. VerBryck, K. Gall, J. Willig, L. Otto, and P. Lindemann. £1 Mi Under the direction of Mr. Ray Sievert the band has become an invaluable asset to our school. Band Under skillful direction the band has become a worthy organization. It has en- livened our pep sessions and inspired all home football and basketball games. This year the band played host to the visiting bands for the Tri-Lutheran High Music Festi- val. Also adding to the musical decorum of our school is the eleven-piece orchestra led by Mr. Sievert. Cal Nicole, Kim Gall, and Mike Tapp entertain at an assembly. The dance band has provided many musical hours. The Cadets go marching along. Y V 42 Concordia twirlers (I. to r.): Joanne Holterman, majorette; Nancy Leitz, assistant-majorette; Karen Hartman, Karen Gorrell, Mimi Little- john, Diane Prochnow, and Barb Pierre give their familiar salute. Twirlers Come Marching The Twirlers epitomize the en- tertainment during half-time at the football and basketball games. They presented tense spectators with need- ed diversion and enjoyment. Adding color to their skillful techniques were the new uniforms of these co-ordi- nated girls. Reserve twirlers: Jennie Andersen, Sandy Burrow, and Mary Tomey learn tactics soon to be put into operation. 43 B I k 1 : I 11 ' —J— ,. q ■ - C ' dP lwfi@ 1 l f; Jjf . ft -If J J V 1 I Mi IB L r ■I I The cast of THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER applaud their director Mr. John Sturmfels. Drama presents life; life presents drama. Without drama, life is flat: It ' s a boat long- ing for the sea and yet afraid. Acting is a part of every human. In some it seeps out more than in others. The Drama Club is for those inclined toward dramatics and backstage work. In the fall the club pre- sented a delightful version of THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER. Winter saw the presenta- tion of a musical production OKLAHOMA. Karen Runkel is carried away by Mike Smith as Mark Knob- lauch looks on. Mark Knoblauch, Marcie Schwehn, and Mimi Littlejohn display their talents. 44 Drama Club Presents THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER and OKLAHOMA. The wonders of Kansas City are extolled by Dave Pressler, Phil Schoenherr, and Tom Manski. Curly and Laurey, as played by Dean Stinsmuehlen and Barb Schweizer, ride in the famous surrey. An old smoke house sets the mood for Poor Jud is Dead with Dean Stinsmuehlen and Roger Hud- son. Below is assembled the cast of OKLAHOMA. 45 The regular biology club sponsored by Mr. Ray Huebscheuman, is made up of students whose interest in God ' s world extend to realms outside t he classroom. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. This heav- en and earth has fascinated man since Adam and Eve discovered the beauty of Eden. With microscopes, dissecting equipment, and observation, the stu- dents of Concordia can better study nature in an advanced or regular group to satisfy his scholarly curiosity. Biology Club The advanced biology club, also under the direction of Mr. Huebscheuman, is composed of students who have previously studied the course and are anxious to increase their present knowledge of this earth. Computer Class The junior and senior math students com- posing the Computer Class studied the theory and operation of IBM 1620 computers at Pur- due Center. This examination presented the students the experience of observing the oper- ation of these calculators first-hand and also presented an example of what man with God ' s guidance can create. The computer class is under the direction of Mr. Don- ald Gayer. 46 Latin Club Latin, a language considered dead, has been revived to the breathing stage by the inquisitiveness of its students. Through participation in Roman style shows, a Latin Ban- quet, plays, parties, and a car wash, Latin scholars satisfy their curiousity in the history, customs, and language of the Romans. Latin Club officers are, I. to r.: Bill Rahe, treasurer; Larry Nord, president; Judy Lange, and Faye Menking, vice presidents in charge of club programs. Participants in the Roman-American Christmas play: Verna Beckman, Kathy Busch, Barb Brant, and Merna Beckman. 47 The news staff includes I. to r.: Karen Rodenbeck, Jayne Marhenke, ass ' t news editor; Mark Schnabel, John Zimmerman, Lois Denninger, and Chris- tine Albers, news editor. Lu-Hi Voice Member of Quill and Scroll Society. The sports staff is I. to r.: Larry Gorrell, sports editor; Steve Katt, Richard Hogan, ass ' t sports editor; Dale Chambers, and Jim Brun- ner. The editorial staff is I. to r.: Christine Albers, news editor; Karen Runkel, managing editor; Larry Gorrell, sports editor; Liz Lindemann, editor-in-chief; and Sandy Amstutz, feature editor. 48 The business staff is I. to r.: Marcia Ver Bryk, advertising manager; Chuck Schroeder, photo- grapher; Mark Knoblauch, business manager; and Mr. Kurt Jordan, advisor. A voice stands out in the stillness of the morning. It talks softly and slowly, loudly and lengthily. It proclaims the news as the town crier; it offers the news as an intelli- gent digest. A voice is a newspaper. Our newspaper is a voice - a Lu-Hi Voice. Liz Lindemann gets the facts about school activities from Mr. Baack. Members of the feature staff seated are: Diane Knothe, ass ' t feature editor; Candy Volmerding. Standing are: Linda Stolten- berg, Faye Menking, Bev Birkman, and Sandy Amstutz, Feature editor.

Concordia ' s Military Depart- ment had twenty-eight offi- cers with Major Randy Trier, Lieutenant Colonel Lowell Frame, and Ma|or Wade Smola supervising. An integral part of Concordia is its marching tradition. This fifty-two year old practice has been extended into the Officers Club, Snap Squad, Rifle Team, Freshman Drill Team, and Drill Team. These activities all contribute towards a better perform- ing and understanding of military science. Military Organizations Benefit Concordia Co-ordination and a good eye are two skills every boy on the Rifle Team needs. We are proud to say that all eight of the boys on the team have these skills. The officers in charge are First Sergeant Dave Tonkel, First Sergeant Barry Dillon, Captain Dick Feldes, Lieutenant Dave Volmerding, and Lieutenant Dave Schwart- zee. 53 t I ..J ,4 i i-? ' , The newly formed cheer-block enthusiastically supports its favorite team. Cheerleaders Spark Cadet Victories The reserve team is encouraged by its devoted cheerleaders, I. to r. Karen Tonne, Candy Volmerding, Mary Walle, and Colleen Bercot. Just as a man would be empty without a soul, so Concordia would be dead without spirit. But Concordia is alive with energy and loyalty. This spirit is expressed in the large turn-outs at games and is personified by the cheer-block and the cheerleaders. Varsity cheerleaders, I. to r. Marcia VerBryck, Donna Krebs, Nancy Leitz, Sandy Westerman, and Bev Birkman say: Vic-to-ry. The Lettermen ' s Club, an organization of those big C men who have served Con- cordia well, sponsored the coat-checks at the basketball games and carried out an annual car wash. Dave Pressler, vice-president; Tom Wil- coxson, president; and Terry Schmidt, secre- tary-treasurer, were the well chosen officers of this active association. Sporty Guys And Dolls: Lettermen And G.A.A.

G.A.A. is designed to promote the ideals of Christianity through leadership, fellow- ship, and sportsmanship. The girls partici- pate in a program of games, sports, and social activities. They represent the old pro- verb, All work and no play. . . But girls. 55 B CHOIRS For general training and prac- tice the alternating B choirs met weekdays under Mr. Henke ' s direction. Primarily made up of freshmen and sophomores, these choirs worked hard preparing for daily chapel services at which they frequently performed. ;:e Concordia ' s B Choirs.

The grace of God made it possible for the choir to be supplied with gowns to enrich its appearance. The choir represented Concordia on television, at Ball State University, and on tour in Chicago. Copello Choir a new son all the earth. Praise to the Lord. 57 Religion Club The work of the Church continues on. It is every Christian ' s duty to aid the Church with his talents. The students composing this club are joined in one goal — to continue the mission work of the Church. Future ministers, parochial teachers, deaconesses, and Christian laymen will follow their Leader in his Holy work, better prepared through this newly or- ganized club. The Board of Directors of the Religion Club is composed of Rev. Phil Schroeder, advisor; Mike Wyss; Kay Schoenefeld; and Sandy Wolf. . . .The harvest truly is plenteous but the laborers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest.

Concord a Couriers Among numerous, fall activities cross country, coached by Don Reinking, is one of growing popularity. The entrants run a map- ped-out, two-mile course over rugged terrain. This sport of endurance demands the utmost concentration and stamina from these couriers. The Cadets concluded with a 4-5 season record. With five of the first ten runners re- turning, Concordia can expect some promising results for next year.

What goes up must come down. Track Highlights Spring Sports. For those who think young. Korn stalks. Never follow the north star. 72 , iM Track is the sound of pounding feet; the sight of dizzy, empty space around the pole vaulter; the soaring of bodies through the air in the long, broad jumps, the effort of the shot- putter; and the speed of the hurdle jumpers. This versatile sport of man develops stamina, speed, coordina- tion, muscles, and sportsmanship - all needed in the life of a well-rounded individual. Itch, not scratch. Catch the C. C. rabbit. Cinder-fellow. 73 ' . ' . :..-;. _ .. .. ' ; . « 3 Baseball The Cadet fans have cheered the base- ball team on to victories this spring. Under the leadership of coaches Jack Massucci and Jon Anderson, the Cadet gas house gang has prospered. It is clearly shown that the players enjoy not only the game itself but al- so the providing of extra thrills for the eager fans. Mr. Massucci demonstrates his juggling skills. 74 Golf One of Concordia ' s spring sports is golf. Golf, involving 95% mental work, is the game of the pro and Arnold Palmer, the game of the club and the putter, the game of the ball and the birdie. This sport, unlike other games, pits man against nature and the golf course, not man against 75 Dave Adams Ready. . . Dave Russell Get set. . . Coordination and alertness play important roles in the physical and mental aspects of tennis. Muscles are stretched and strengthened and minds are sharpened and refreshed.

That ' s why it goes on and on. That ' s why there really is no Death; it ' s just the passing of a soul which cast its shadow on us as it passes by. No we can ' t stand here watching it forever: it will soon pass out of sight. That soul is on a quicker route than we are. For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
