' ' i J, ' The famous bust of Gustavus Adolphus a replzca o which stands in the college triangle was executed zn Nuremberg in 1632 by the German sculptor Hans van der Putt. AZIN G out from College Hill into the valley, where the languid Minnesota flows on to its rendezvous with the Mississippi, stands the bronze bust of a regally garbed man. As befits a conqueror, he wears a crown of laurel. In the granite pedestal on which he rests are in- scribed the words, NGUSTAVUS ADOLPH US, 1594 - 1632 Long ago his eyes beheld less tranquil sights - the storm and strife of war - soldiers armed with pikes and swords struggling hand to hand - the shock of charging men on horse-back - the smoke of muskets and cannon hanging like a pall over dead and dying men. Today they view a peaceful college campus far from the scenes of his triumphs. Fresh-faced students, not soldiers and statesmen, surround him now. They scurry by, books under arm, or tarry to chat. For some, his tiny nook is a trysting place. They call themselves Gusties', and, in the casual fashion of students, refer to him affectionately as Old Gus, ignoring the chronological fact that, even at the time of his death, he was not old. His place on the campus in an atmosphere of culture and learning is ap- propriate. He was always a vigorous exponent of education, regarding it as the life-blood of any nation. During his reign the present school system of Sweden was established. It was he who breathed new life into the University of Uppsala by initiating educational reforms and undergirding it with his gift of the hereditary Gustavian estates. 2 DEDICATION CARL E. SJOSTRAND RAND and most distinguished was the career of Carl Evald Sjostrand in the service of Gustavus Adolphus College. When he departed this life on March 16, 1961, one of the longest careers in the history of the College came to a close. His entire life had been de- voted to Christian Higher Education. After graduating from the Gustavus School of Commerce in 1904, he taught at Luther College, Wahoo, Ne- braska, for two years, for fifteen years he was associated with North Star College, Warren, Minnesota, serving as its president from 1916-23. In that year he became Treasurer and Business Manager of Gustavus Adolphus College. He held both positions until 1943, continued on as Treas- urer until 196O and served, during the last year and a half, as Assistant to the President. He had major responsibility in every fund-raising effort for the Col- lege within the Church during all that time. The total funds raised un- der his supervision approaches two million dollars. Among the present facilities of the College for which he would have to be given a large measure of credit are the present Student Union, the Library, and the College Church. It is appropriate that the cross on the top of the Spire has been made a memorial to him. No one has contributed more to plant- ing the Cross on that lofty eminence. He was an active and dedicated lay worker in the Church - in his own congregation, in the Churchmen's organization, and in the Church at large. He was everybody's friend, not least the friend of those who had had to reckon with his exacting demands. One of the most remarkable things about him was the way in which the general public's apprecia- tion of him and his services continued to grow year after year. He was a careful and able administrator, with meticulous care for details and with his goals and objectives always clear. WVC salute the memory of a great and good man, who knew that his first loyalty was to his Lord, who drew heavily on the resources of grace and power available to the man of faith, and who served his Lord by faithful service to his fellowmen.

What manner of man was this whose name our college has taken for its own, this king who in his native land is called Gustav II the Great - who by military experts for more than three centuries has been regarded as pure genius - and who by Protestants everywhere is hailed as the champion and defender of their faith? The editor and staff of the 1961 Gustavian believe that, in addition to their faithful chronicling of campus happenings during the past school year, the story of Gustavus Adolphus, the man, should be retold, that this collegiate generation should be as well acquainted with him as the found- ing fathers who, for good reason, chose his name for our school. With this in mind, they proudly announce the theme of their yearbook to be NAMESAKE - GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS Highlights of the king's life and times will be found in sequence on the division pages which precede each section of the book. Because of space limitations, they are regrettably brief. In italics above them will be found character-revealing excerpts from what Gustavus Adolphus said and wrote. Italicized below are recorded opinions of some of his contemporaries. 8 KING GUSTAVUS ADOLPHLIS fam LJT vu 1 N, :N P - 1: w f - 1 W , , 10 ull' Illl A .'.'..':'11 4 f fl , I K 5 S CHAMPION CF PROTESTANTISM ii' YQWM -'EW ll GUSTAVLIS ADOLPHLIS COLLEGE USTAVUS Adolphus College is one of a dozen or more private liberal arts colleges in Minnesota. Each one was created to serve the needs of some Church. All attst to the esteem in which higher education was held by the immigrants and pioneers who built this state. For almost a hundred years - and for a time all alone - Old Main has stood looking out over the town of St. Peter and the lowlands of the Minne- sota River valley. Its bell tower, silhouetted against the western sky and vis- ible for miles, has been a landmark for generations. This year a new structure has emerged out of the campus to vie with Old Main for the attention of the viewer. It is the new college chapel, its lofty needle Spire topped with a cross and reaching upward into the sky for more than a hundred and fifty feet. These two prominences on the St. Peter skyline are symbolic. They indicate the character of the school. The older one suggests the school's cul- tural purposes - the other the Christian mileu in which they are being ful- Hlled. 12 f' 1' GLISTAVLIS SPIRIT FLOWS F STIMLILATING INTEREST, AND ITS AC I 14 .f LZ ar - .

Swedenis reform followed soon after. As in England a few years later, this upheaval came about more as a political expedient than as the result of a religious awakening. The turn of the sixteenth century found Sweden smarting under the self- imposed ties which bound her to the alliance of Scandinavian states known as the Union of Kalmar. When the king of Denmark sought to perpetuate this union and to establish his sovereignty over Sweden, a wave of revolt swept over the land. - Gustav Eriksson, a young noble of the influential Vasa family, was the flaming Hgure around whom the forces of freedom rallied. After victory had been won, he was offered the crown of Sweden. Gustav accepted but re- fused coronation until Sweden should become Lutheran. Although truly in- terested in the new teachings recently carried to Sweden from Luther's lecture hall in Wittenberg by Lars and Olav Petri, he saw the change to Lutheranism as an opportunity to gain for the crown the vast landhold- ings of the Church of Rome and to remove the antagonistic Roman clergy from his opposition. Many years after his death, Gustav I had a grandson - his name was Gustavus Adolphus. The faith which the grandfather had thrust upon Sweden would someday be defended by his grandson with his life! Ille faciet - This one will do it! 16 - vm 0 1. f .1 if 46 The Old Main bell tower - in the background rises the new College Chapel Spire. 17 COLLEGE PRESIDENT DR. EDGAR M. CARLSON OOD fortune came to Gustavus Adolphus Col- lege when Dr. Edgar Carlson chose to accept the call to administer its affairs. There were some at the time who were puzzled that a brilliant young Lu- theran theologian should elect to become president of a liberal arts college. There were others who asked how a gifted preacher of the Gospel could have been persuaded to exchange his pulpit for an administrator's desk. Actually, there was no inconsistency in his decision. It must always be remembered that this college, namesake of the pre- server of the Reformation, is an institution of the Church, having been cre- ated and now being sustained by it. The church is dedicated to the cause of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. The college shares this dedication. Our college exists - and Dr. Carlson says this over and over again - for the primary purpose of maintaining a Christian witness in the field of higher education. His years of accomplishment at Gustavus - the ele- vation of academic standards, the strengthening of the faculty, the provi- sion of new and better facilities for teaching - are evidence that he also regards it as important that this witness be strong and untarnished by any stain of mediocrity. Dr. Carlson has followed his vocation well and, in so doing, has bright- ened the name of both his church and his Alma Mater. He has, thereby, done it also to his own. Robert W.

The ranking of every institution of higher learning is established by their record. They form the academic nucleus of the college setting, and being the center from which knowledge emanates, the success or failure of every student hinges upon the ability of the professor to teach. What a compliment - to be called a teacher. What a worthy task - the education of youth. Behind every doctor, engineer, scientist, or con- queror of space stands the first line of promoters, the teachers. Throughout the world they provide knowledge and direction to students destined to become the leaders of the future. Gustavus Adolphus College stands amidst those that Hy the liberal arts banner. Its academic cur- riculum ranges from art to physics, from language to mathematics, from astronomy to philosophy. Teaching at this small college of eleven hundred and some students, the Gustavus faculty staff num- bers over one hundred. Given the Christian college educational atmosphere, a distinction can be made contrasting the brand of education found at the large university with that found at Gustavus. With great benefit to the student, the professor's energies are consumed not only in the classroom or testing situation, but also within that wonderful student- teacher relationship where guidance, counsel, and personal stimulation add so much to the quality of the Gustavus education. Found in the class- room, laboratory, or over a cup of colfee in the student union, the willingness to offer assistance, advice, or just plain encouragement, lends depth and meaning to the learning process.

TED NICHOLS, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Physics CHARLES L. HAMRUM, Ph.D. Associate Professor MYRON A. ANDERSON, Ph.D. of Biology Assistant Professor of Biology Head Natural Sciences Elicit Appreciation Old Main, long-time signiiicant landmark of the Gusta- vus campus, has recently relinguished this particular notoriety, being dwarfed in size and magnificence by the brand new quartz-surfaced chapel. Though this be lost, its distinction of housing the natural sciences remains, if only until completion of the Nobel Hall of Science scheduled to begin within the year. But regardless of in which building the sciences be taught, they will forever be granted the emphasis they have always been given at Gustavus. Chemistry, biology, physics, geology, and mathematics departments have launched many a student into post- graduate work, teaching, and the medical or engineering professions. Suggesting, guiding, and counseling through lecture, experiment, and seminar study, the importance of the well-defined personal communication between student and professor cannot be minimized in View of the excellent records of these departments.

With sociology leading the way l concerning man's relation to others, and psychology at- tempting to explain man's interaction within himself, both seek to develop a respondent awareness of the attitudes. feelings, ideas, and problems of man. In this manner these two faculties add insight for the improvement of modern civilization. The complexities of that civilization can be realized in the amazing world of business. An extremely practical side of the educational picture at Gustavus, this department each year launches many into the advertising, sales, and management fields, enhancing the continued rise of Ameri- ca's standard of living.

While keeping abreast of current world developments, the history department matures understand- ing and provides insight into the changing world pattern. Viewing older styles of civilization and the changing phenomenon establishes understanding of the world in which we live and an appreciation of the complexities of our modem civilization. Philosophy, by instilling a definite thinking attitude, adds significantly to the Gustavus student's educational foundation. By developing an interest in the realm of ideas, the faculty provides for expansion of growth in the student and for the future of America. CARL D. FISHER, M.A. Instructor in History OSCAR A.

Instructor in Christianity Bethesda Hospital English, Christianity Offer Direction Both English and Christianity courses are required in the Gustavus program. Each department therefore plays a significant role in the education of all students. Each stimulate thought and decision. Each offer direction. Each give foundation to the Christian higher education. Jesus said, 'SSeek and ye shall know the truthf, The college en- vironment is indeed a good place in which to seek and know the truth. English induces language development and provides thoughts and ideas of the world's great minds. Christianity, in all facets of education at Gustavus, is at the forefront of the search for knowledge. Both are primary considerations of a Christian college education. iss If Liu ROBERT ESBJORNSON, S.T.M. Associate Professor of Christianityg Department Head .ff EMMER ENGBERG, B.D.

' Assistant Professor of Art Associate Professor of Art Music, Speech, Art - Promote Expression The Gustavus Adolphus educational set-up is not spe- cialized, though specialized training may be acquired in various fields. It belongs to that group of colleges bearing the title, Liberal Arts. And one of its goals is to expand the cultural background of the student, The departments of speech, music, and art on the campus contribute whole- heartedly toward fulhlling that purpose. Two words can describe their aims - expression and appreciation. Expression of thoughts and ideas, of feelings and impressions, of wonder and beauty. Appreciation of Bachs and Beethovens, of da Vincis, and Angelos, of Lincolns and Websters. Striving for these aims at the easel, at the podium, and at the keyboard of the piano, each department adds depth to the college education received at Gustavus. EVAN E. ANDERSON, L.L.D.

However, such practical application is but minor in the collective scope of language benefits. Offering French, German, Latin, Swedish, Greek, Spanish, and Russian the Gustavus Adolphus College language faculty seeks to uncover these advantages. Besides the beauty to be admired, sometimes lost in translation, language can be a noteworthy aid in comprehending your own language. But above all, the study of a language stimulates interest in other countries, other peoples, other cultures. In a day when understanding between nations, between peoples, is most needed, the value of language, for the interest, communication, and subsequent understanding developed, cannot be underestimated.

Two years of preparatory and background study is carried out at the college, and the remaining two years of study and practical training are spent at Bethesda Lutheran Hospital in St. Paul. Training only the most beautiful and affectionate girls in the wonderful art of bedside care, the Gustavus nursing faculty takes the position that a smiling face and tender treatment, along with an excellent education and training, supply the ingredients for a speedy recovery. On the average, approximately a dozen girls graduate from the Gustavus-Bethesda program as registered nurses each year. EH'iciently co-ordinating the college and hos- pital areas of training, the nursing faculty has macle this dual program a successful system of nursing education.

In requir- ing two years of physical education courses, the Gustavus student acquires knowledge and skill in various athletic fields. Transcending the requirements, the faculty offers advanced courses for those whose objective is teaching and coaching. In the area of Education, Gustavus performs a real serv- ice to Arnericais future. Training students to teach, guide, and direct the youth of America is indeed a worthy en- deavor.

HAGGLUND, M.A. B.A. Registrar and Director of Audio Executive Assistant Visual Aids Any large corporation needs a co-ordinating body, a harmonizing force behind the intricacies of a complicated system. So it is with Gustavus. Such a force is indispensable to a smoothly operating higher educational program. Housed in the Auditorium on the campus, the adminis- trative departments of the college perform this task. Be it recording grades, balancing the budget, recruiting a first- rate freshmen class, or informing the public of Gustavus activities and achievements, more than thirty-five indi- viduals are at work for the present and future of the college. These are the people who keep the ball rolling. Con- stantly expanding with the growing college population, this force is maintaining, repairing, experimenting, and improving the college structure. Soon these departments will be housed in a new Administration building scheduled to begin within the next few years. Singing typewriters, noisy mimeograph machines, ring- ing phones, and clanking mailing devices make up the clamorous atmosphere you will find here. But at every turn amongst this busy staff, a smiling face or friendly hello confronts you. These are the Gustavus harmonizing force, so willing to serve and so efficient at their job. ROSS BLOOM- R.

However, he had been well prepared for the task. He had received from his carefully selected tutors a most ex- cellent education. He had obtained a thorough knowledge and perfect command of many tongues, so that he spoke Latin, German, Dutch, French, and Italian, like a native, understood Spanish, English and Scotch, and besides had some notion of Polish and Russianf' His knowledge of Greek was an even rarer accom- plishment. He had been deeply grounded in the prerequisites for kingship - history, statesmanship and the law - and from his tenth year had attended meet- ings of the king's council and sessions of the Rikstag with his father, Charles IX. Mention must be made of his exceptionable facility in the use of words, whether by pen or tongue. He became the finest orator of his land in his time. Even his gifted chancellor, Oxenstierna, was no match for him. Above all, his study of the science of war had not been neglected. This was no luxury - it was an absolute necessity. His father had left him and Sweden in a state of war with two nations, Russia and Demnark. Few kings have inherited a kingdom in a more precarious condition. He seems more occupied in ruling his king- dom than in the ordinary pleasures of youth. 42 .1 5 Unleashing his unusual lecturing ability, Dr. Arthur Glass explains the newest facts and figures in the field of genetics. FACULTY STIMULATES SCHOLARSHIP The pursuit of excellence was conducted not only in the classroom but also in special lectures presented by some of the more ambitious members of the faculty. Dr. Arthur Glass, head of the biology department, presented the new- est discoveries in the Held of genetics and how they will affect humanity in the future. The psychological aspects of sin were presented by Dr. John Kendall, professor of psychology and an ordained minister. An interesting pres- entation of the Chinese problem was given by Dr. Gordon Means of the history department. The lectures contributed commendably to the enhance- ment of a new academic feeling at Gustavus this year. A distinguished audience considers Dr. John Kendall's Dr. Gordon Means uses a map of Asia to aid his lecture on the problems treatment of the psychological aspects of sin. and progress of China. GUEST SCHOLARS PRESENT LECTURES r 'gf ' se I gif 5' es l With special equipment before him and all eyes waiting for his next move, Dr. Leonard Ford amazes his audience with his chemical magic. The new academic feeling on campus was promoted by several prominent lecturers who stimulated the student body in their particular fields. Dr. Leonard Ford, the author of Chemical Magic ' and professor of chemistry at Mankato State College, presented an interesting lecture and demonstration of important sec- tions of his book. In the technological field also, Mr. James Smith of International Business Machines spoke to the Math Club and other interested people on the technical value of the computer. A prominent geophysicist, Dr. James Balsey, gave an address on rock magnetics to a group of students and guests from all parts of southern Minnesota. The motivation produced by the visits of these dedicated men raised the technological interest of the students to new academic heights. Dr. James Balsey speaks to a group of scientists from Gustavus and other Minnesota colleges in the field of geo-physics.

Brad- ford Thompson of the chemistry department. In January of 1961, the National Science Foundation awarded Dr. H. Bradford Thompson, professor of chemis- try, a 857,500 foundation grant to continue his work on in- ternal molecular rotations which was started in 1956. The title of the whole project is Studies of Rotational Isomer- ism in Substituted Hydrocarbons. With Dr. Thompson and four assistants working diligently on the problem in- volved, great advancements are anticipated. This research conducted by Dr. Thompson and his con- stituents is very commendable for it will not only bring forth advancements in physical chemistry, but it may give a budding young scientist his start to greater achievements while assisting the college to raise its academic reputa- tion. Dr. Thompson explains a distilation procedure to his lab assist- ants, Cleft to rightj, Stephen Hanson, Karen Lundquist, Thomas Lindell and Marjorie Rawhouser. i' I 1 I Y l Deep in concentration while doing research for the college's history are Dennis Anderson, John Bergren, and Mark Gilderheus. MAKI G PREPARATIONS FOR CENTENNIAL Preparing a centennial history of the college is Dr. Doniver Lund of the history department. Dr. Lund is not only writing but also teaching by a work-study program with seven interested students. The students include John Bergren, Mark Gilderheus, Stephen Benson, Bill Nordstrom, Milt Gustafson, Dennis Anderson, and Ronald Barrett. These students are receiving academic credit plus gaining an invaluable insight into the actual process of writing history. It is the hope of the Gustavus family that the work accomplished will be published in commemoration of the centennial celebration. Bill Nordstrom listens intently while Dr. Lund translates an old ledger compiled in Swedish.

Addressing the opening Convocation was Dr. Herbert Passin of the University of Washington. To a college campus sometimes insulated against the pressures of the outside world, the annual Bemadotte In- stitute on World Affairs offers an opportunity for Gustavians and guests alike to hear prominent authorities discuss the flaming issues of the times. Appropriately selected was this year's topic: American in a Revolutionary World. The 1960's will continue to impress upon the United States that in underdeveloped lands there has occurred a revolution of rising expectations. The message of western society has begun to filter down through stagnant layers of societies in Asia, Africa, Latin and South America. The result, though distasteful in some instances, has been a de- mand on the part of oppressed peoples for social and eco- nomic justice as manifested 'by Castro in Cuba, Nkrumah in Ghana, and Kasavubu in the Congo. Representing four different areas of endeavor in American affairs to the Gustavus community May 5th and 6th were newspaperrnen, ambassadors, State Department oflicials, and professors. The participants spoke with considerable ob- jectivity about the future role that Americans must assume. As an expert on revolutions, Dr. George Lenczowski of the Uni- versity of California discussed the uprisings in Far Eastern countries. ky X, sq AMERICA I A REVQLLITIO ARY WGRLD Washington University's Dr. Herbert L. Passin began the Institute with an analysis of Far Eastern issues, particularly in India and Japan. Polish-born Dr. George Lenczowski from the University of California discussed the causes and effects of Middle Eastem revolution. Representing the Venezuelan government with his dis- course on the historical relationships between Latin America and the United States was Minister Carlos Perez de la Cova. Author and '4New York Timesl' man, Herbert Matthews, confined his remarks to Cuba. His background includes being the first newsman to interview Fidel Castro in the Sierra Maestra in 1957, and his stop in St. Peters was part of a lecture series at colleges and universities throughout the land. Concluding the two-day occasion was former Minneapolis Tribune journalist and recently appointed Assistant Secretary of State on Public Affairs. Carl T. Rowan. His address outlined the general thesis that where once this nation was weak and stood apart. we now are powerful and perma- nently involved. Taking a, bow at the wind-up banquet is Mr. Herbert Matthews a member of the staff of the New York Times. As main speaker at the Institute dinner, Mr. Carl Rowan, Assistant Secretary of State on Public Affairs clarified many of America's policies concerning world affairs. ,,..... :lm f - . ra :arse fjif. 5- ,,, 3. 1 ,r - ll' .1--7 4535.15 if as I., - -7- fax A 2 t :PJ A Q 3 -' Wt 2 ' Q - I H I it Ea .

Oliver Hagglund spoke to a prominent group of professors and alumni during the new scholastic review session at Homecoming time. v 4--.- F or the first time in many years, Gustavus was the scene of an academic debate. The debate team made an excellent showing against one of the finest teams in the nation, Augus- tana College of Rock Island, Illinois. A new innovation this year was presented by the college for all interested people at Homecoming time. The academic status of the college was reviewed at a special session pre- sented by the administration. Questions were answered and predictions were made about all phases of scholastics at Gustavus. The new students entering school soon realize that the academic strides and aims predicted in conferences with their advisors are rapidly becoming a reality.

However, he also believed it to be his duty to aid to the limit of his ability in that upholding. This was consider- able. Without question, he was the most able of the Vasa kings. He was a man of action, but only after sober calculation, systematic plan- ning and the careful weighing of counsel. His chief advisor was the young but capable Axel Oxenstierna, his first official appointment as king. As a diplomat, he could match the best that Europe offered. As a negotiator, he was dangerous because he seldom lost the spirit of attack. He was blessed with magnetic charm. A contemporary describes him as a most gracious monarch, sagacious, bold and wary, and, in particular, most lovable and friendly with every man. Gustavus Adolphus was a genuinely religious person. His convictions were deep and earnest, cheerful and optimistic, and unburdened by doubt. He believed truly in the efficiency of prayer and Godls guidance in the affairs of his realm - and he practiced it diligently. Even the inconveniences of war did not upset his routine. During his Ger- man campaigns, prayers were held in every Swedish and Finnish regiment at 4 olclock, this to the amazement of foreigners attached to his forces. He would, at times, emerge from his tent to personally rattle the drum that summoned his men to prayer. Drawings depicting him kneeling in prayer before leading his troops in battle are not flights of some artist's imagina- tion-they are based on fact. - this evangelical joshua, the King of Sweden. 56 VA .

It looked like another typical winning season to the many fans that followed their team out to Sioux Falls, South Dakota. How- ever, Augustana, with the great passing combination of Luce-to-Sirnko soon took control of the game. The Auggies won going away, 4-l-13. HAMLINE - Starting out slowly but gathering mo- mentum in the second half, the Golden Gusties gained a 37-6 win over the Pipers. Go-captain Paul Thompson, with his golden left arm, led his team to victoly by throw- ing two touchdown aerials. ST. THOMAS - With only four minutes left in the first half, halfback Dick Bakke plunged over from the three yard line to give the Swedes their margin of victory 6-O. AUGSBURG - The Gusties, finding it harder to score extra points than touchdowns, dropped their second con- secutive one-point decision of the season to the fired-up Augsburg eleven 19-18. It was Augsburg's first win over Gustavus in 31 years. ST. JOHN'S - In a game that looked more like a swim- ming meet, the Johnnies rose to the occasion and tied the Gusties 6-6. A 64 yard pass play provided the green-men their T.D. YOUNGSTOWN - Quarterback Paul Thompson dis- played his most valuable player award form as he threw four touchdown passes in a losing 55-35 cause. The Gusties were in the game all the way until the second half when the famed Youngstown attack opened up. U.M.D. - The battle of the undefeateds turned out just as exciting as it was billed. In a hard fought battle, Duluth got a major break on a 95 yard touchdown run on the opening kickoff of the second half. This proved to be what was needed as they defeated the home team 20-14. GONGORDIA - Concordia came to St. Peter ranked second in the nation. They left outplayed, humiliated, and with G's branded on their uniforms. A fired-up Gustavus squad played their best game of the year. Go-captain Paul Thompson was named state college player of the week for his part in upsetting the Gobbers 34-14. MAGALESTER - A powerful second half surge led the Scots to a 27-26 homecoming upset over the Golden Gusties. The Gusties felt the need for a Lou Groza for those important extra points.

BREAKS MAR SEASON The 1960 Gustavus Adolphus football team was not a championship team, although the ability was there. Several ubreaksn that went the wrong way turned them into a fifth place squad instead of a trophy-bearing group. There were some stars, but they were only part of thc whole team ef- fort. The pictures on these two pages are emblematic of this spirit and fight. There was one person who stood above and apart from the rest. He was head coach Dr. Lloyd Hollingsworth. The Gustavus football scene will not be quite the same without his nervous pacing up and down during the games, for this was his last season. Former backfield coach Don Roberts will now take over the helm to guide the football team's fortunes. He will be assisted by new line coach, Ade Sponeberg. Both men are Gustavus graduates. Next yearfs prospects are hard to evaluate. The losses due to graduation of seniors from this yearis team will be severely felt in several key positions. Approximately six starters participated in their last football season for Gus- tavus. This year,s team consisted of a large percentage of unclerclassmen, mostly freshmen that in the years to come will help to brighten the Gustavus football picture. The referee is glad he's not in on the play as the tough Gustie line stops another drive. ,, ff' 'Q 3 ' ma. 53 -wh 4 - 'E 'Q C1 47 , ' .fi , K 15,1 54, , n ' N f . if J , a NE' LJ! 5, v 0 N f' Ov -f I F V S .E- f f W?

The big question that concerned everyone was: Is this the year the basketball team will lead us to Kansas City? Four of last yearls starters were returning and with a strong and experienced bench, what was to hold us back? However, there were still doubts! Last year's team was at times very hot and also at times very cold. The starting lineup at the beginning of the season was Co-captains Lyle Nelson and john Lubdblad, Dean Ander- son, john Emerson, and Bill Nordstrom. Illness was a major factor in this year's team effort. At semester break Co- captain John Lundblad was lost for the remainder of the season. Ken Abrams took his place. Later on Johm Emer- son missed four games and lVIike Jerabek commanded the center position. For awhile it looked like Kansas City would be just a dream. However, the team beat Concordia for the right to meet Mankato State in the district playoff. Trailing all the way they came from behind to win 61-60. The pandemonium that reigned is history. They lost in Kansas City, but the light that got them there w-ill be long remem- bered. Next year the team will,be led by Co-captains Mike Jerabek and Bill Nordstrom. Both forward Bill Nordstrom and center John Emerson were chosen as all-conference. Bill Nordstrom was also the team's scoring champion.

In that race, the Gustie strokers were beaten by approximately 1f10 of a second. An upset in the 400 yard medley relay cinched the loss. Minus Gary Anderson, the trio shown above make up the 400 yard free style relay team. Included are Dave Nelson, Dave Orlander, and Pete Walman. lll as f' fffev--Mae - T f pfwf if mail ' l p ibm U. me iytgw, wig-ff.t.U..g1g, W ,. 1. , , -i1,:.,..VWYV, QV -:iv Z ' I 'A' - ii aid as-qi , EHT CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP FAILS All three defending champs from Gustavus retained their respective trophies and a fourth, Pete Walman, won his Hrst title. Walman won both the 100 and 200 yard back- stroke events. Gary Anderson and John Jambeck were also double winners for the Gusties as they won the 100 and 200 yard butterfly and the 50 and 100 yard free style events respectively. Phil Benson retained his title as he won the 1500 meter free style race. All told, the effort was not enough to take home the crown. The team truly felt the lack of a diver in the meet. Indeed an individual sport, swimming demands hard work and hours of determined practice from each partici- pant. Gustavus Adolphus College, known throughout the nation for its First-rate swimming teams, can well be proud of the ablebodied crew developed each year by coach Vic Gustafson. Six consecutive MIAC title-holding teams is an honorable record in any college athletic endeavor. Surely 1961 will only be the starting point for another several years sweep of the conference championship in swimming for Gustavus.

GRAPPLERS PINNED Wlhen the wrestlers held their first meeting this year, there was a strong showing of new aspirants and returning veterans. There were high hopes for a winning season and a good finish in the conference meet. However, all such ideas were dissolved when injuries and eligibility require- ments took their toll. Several important men were lost to these plagues. Numerous matches saw the forfeiture of weight divisions because of the lack of personnel. However, those who could wrestle, did, and did it in the best way they knew how. Wfhen a team member was engaged in a match, the rest of the team would be seen on the sidelines yelling their encouragement. This was typical, for they never let down. Captain Roger Fletcher and Coach Don Roberts led the team to a rewarding season, if not successful. John Os- mondson and Harlan Hanson were the team's two out- standing wrestlers. John won the M.I.A.C. 177 pound championship and Harlan was dethroned in the 123 pound division. The Hnal team standings in the M.I.A.C. were: Augsburg 51, Macalester 48, St. Johnls 45, Concordia 40, St. Thomas 32, Gustavus 21. A strong returning nucleus and new head coach Ade Sponeberg will fomi a strong team for next year. FRONT ROW: Harlan Hanson, Paul Chernak, Kenmore Johnson, David Tofte, Roger Fletcher, Captain.

After finishing second in 1960, a half-game out of Hrst place-, they looked forward to conference championship. This would be their goal. The students on campus felt the same way. However, they wound up in fourth place with a 3-5 conference record. All of the starters and regulars from last year's team were back with more experience and know-how. There were also some promising new freshmen to add to this con- gregation of veterans. To say the least the campus was optimistic. What happened? No one knows, Was it senior slump? That doesn't seem reasonable. Every game they played was close, but there wasn't enough to bring them out on top. They fought, scrapped, and didn't quit, but came out on the short end too frequently to qualify for conference king-pins. The main weakness was failure to come through with clutch hitting. Several times the bases were loaded only to have the runners stranded there because of a lack of key hitting. With only two regulars returning next year, head coach Don Roberts must look forward to a rebuilding year.

Along with coach Lee Krough they have helped to bring the team out of its almost perpetual last place position. Bruce Thorson garnered a fourth place in the discus, Don Severson placed second in the high jump, and Ken Abrahain tied for third in the same event. Macalester won the mile relay with a time of 3:27, tying the record for the event set last year by Gustavus.

The Gusties took their annual trip to Texas in the spring. They played Hve matches, winning two and losing three, They played two of the outstanding golf teams of the South, Hardin'-Simmons and New Mexico University. Upon returning the team participated in fifteen matches. They compiled a record of eight wins and seven losses against conference competition. An unbeatable combination was captain Noel Estergren and Stu Johnson. These two, playing as no. 1 and no. 2 were undefeated in conference match play. Matches, however, are not won by just two men.

Along with Macalester they tied for the conference championship. Pre-season ratings found them ranked towards the bottom as a dark-horse at the very best. However, a new coach, Knute Benckendorff, and a group of established Veterans, plus a few freshmen formed a strong team. In the conference meet all but two points came in the singles competition. Captain Gary Lawson accounted for four of theses points and Hap LeVander and Denny Pearson each added two. The doubles title went to Macalester. Dave Johnson and Dave Gustafson won one match for the Gusties. Gary Law- son paced the team as he finished runner-up to Tom Hutton of Hamline in singles play. In the final match the scores were 11-9, 4-6, 2-6, for Hutton. This was the first time Gustavus had ever won a net title and the only First place Finish by a Gustavus athletic team this year.

SPGRT SPARKERS Who stands out on the football field when it rains, snows, or when cold winds are blowing? Who keeps trying to rouse the famous Gustie spirit when the team is far behind? Who braves the ire of non-cheering students? The Gustavus Adolphus College cheerleaders are willing to test all these elements to perform their duties. Who are the First to shout for joy when a basket is made for our side? Who are the first to jump up and down when we make a touchdown? Who are the first to weep and wail when the opponent team acores against us? Only one group on campus can meet these qualifications - the cheerleaders. They are well known for their stubbornness in trying to shake a crowd out of its doldrums. They always have a quick smile and bright attitude and perform a valuable service to the campus life. Again and again they remind us of our duty to back our athletic teams. And to top it all off, they provide us with some beautiful scenery.

Caesar was always to be found in the front rank and Alexander moistened each battlefield with his bloodf' In this manner the Swedish king answered those who protested his personal leadership in battle. It is not strange that Gustavus Adolphus should cite Caesar and Alex- ander. History regards him and these two, along with Hannibal, Frederick the Great, and Napoleon, as the most most brilliant military leaders of all times. Exemplary courage alone did not make him a great general, although it must have helped in the creation of the esprit de corps for which his officers and men were famous. Chiefiy, his genius lay in his profound mastery of the science of war, to which he added his own imaginative concepts of tactics and weaponry. Foremost were his revolutionary maneuverings of troops in the field, his unique use of artillery and cavalry, his substitution of mobility for weight. Ponderous, slowly moving masses of soldiers burdened with heavy armor and weapons were never a match for the slashing attack and swift movements of his lightly armored horses and men. He has been aptly called the father of the blitzkrieg. No small additional factor in his successes was his experience of waging and winning his wars with Denmark, Russia and Poland. These seem to have been preparation for his destined task of preserving the fruits of the Reformation for Europe and the world. He was not content with being commander-in-chief. He must need be captain, subaltern, engineer, gunner, and private - in short, everything. 92 GAIETY-THE WORD FOR '60 HOMECOMI G Queen candidates in the 1960 Homecoming are, left to right, Nancy Dahl, Marilyn Heier, Jan Berntson, Pat Maedl, Nancy Hunziker, and Karen Westman. In the presence of beauty one is fascinated 5 In the presence of royalty one is awed, In the presence of graciousness one is charmed, In the presence of intelligence and maturity one is respect- ful 5 In the presence of genuine character one is grateful for the meeting, In the presence of Nancy Hunziker one is most warmly pleased in every way 3 One becomes aware of what makes a Queen Gustavus proudly displayed their newly selected queen throughout the four day Homecoming spectacular. Queen Nancy, beaming her radiance to one and all, cordially wel- comed students, faculty, and alumni to join in the joyful festivities. Flanked by five smiling coeds, the Homecoming procession was truly magnificent, and in it crystallized the well known Gustie spirit - prevalent throughout the weekend. To a Gustavian, Homecoming means more than just a variety show, dance, game, and a meaningless jumble of activities. A Gustavus Homecoming is a coming back to a way of life not easily forgotten. This life has been instilled into each and every one who has walked along hello walki' surrounded by fellow students in the famous tradi- tion of friendliness. It is the meeting of old friends, former professors, and the new students who each year carry on the same unity and traditions, Although the external land- scaping may change, the inner Gustavus spirit will never die.

Ah, the first glimpses of college life. The joys of moving to a new environment and embarking on a new career proves thrilling and yet baffling to our new Gusties. As so often happens, Dad is delegated as the truck horse for the day, while mom and daughter share some last minute questions and advice. At the faculty tea, new students and their parents had a chance to informally meet the Gustavus faculty. And so the first day progresses, through the picnic in Swede Park, and on to the mixer in Wahlstrom . . . a mul- ti-mixture of activities for the class of 1964.

THE CQLLEGE CHALLE GE Two freshmen girls, Sue Fenske and Carolc Onstrom look on with apparent glee as the senior class president, Milt Gustafson, is hung in effigy Freshman initiation brought mixed emotions to the Gustavus family. Here was a chance for the seniors to show their f'power over Uhelpless' freshman. With a green beanie allotted to everyone of the 425 freshmen, our cam- pus became a blanket of green for several days. The event, held the first week of school, added color and many laughs to the campus scene. Each senior wore an identifying ribbon which brought terror to the green clad frosh. Familiar commands includ- ed, Double button . . . Carry my tray, frosh!, or On the double . . . Those pour souls who showed insubordination to these varied commands met their just reward on the steps of Old Main where the seniors had revenge in the form of Kan- garoo Gourt. Led by the Honorable Rodney Goldberg, and amply supported by defense attorney, Sam Davis, and prosecuting attorney, Tom Id Idstrom, the fresh- men faced the music and took their consequences with a grim smile. The class of 1964 took their initiation in stride, and not a member was lost. As the period ended, they offi- cially became Gusties - a happy ending indeed. VIC PUTS SWIMMERS s f ,K 5' .sf jg .

At this time each year, deserving juniors are invited to join the Guild of St. Lucia. Members inducted last year present a rose to those chosen from the junior class. A new function of A.W.S. this year was to select the best dressed woman on campus. After voting by all women students, the award was given to chic JoAnn Bergey.

NN UAL EVENT Gustavus students are fortunate indeed to live in a com- munity where student leadership flourishes, not only through branches of government such as the Association of Women Students, but through membership on college committees that allow faculty, staff, and students to explore together their points of view. Freedom to participate implies both carefree spontaneity and disciplined form. New spontaneity and discipline are not chance developments. They reflect rather a response to the impact of many persons, to the climate of many opinions. The leadership of AWS on our campus has been wrought by its officers, House Presidents, Council members, Student Counselors, Head Residents, and staff members working together. Yet all these eH'orts would have been of no avail had students themselves, each generation, not contributed the major share of enthusiasm and support. An affiliate member of the Intercollegiate Association of Women Students that numbers 150 chapters and some 125,000 active members, Gustavus students join other forces in the promotion of a program both local and national in character. Throughout the country, IAWS members seek to strengthen their local governing units, to institute mutually determined policies of a national program, and to grow in the understanding of international responsibility. As delegates to state, regional, and national IAWS con- ventions, Gustavus students broaden their horizons and act as so many informal ambassadors of good will. There will be new opportunities for them to serve the college in October when the State meeting of IAWS convenes on the campus as an event of our Centennial year. Despite its somewhat youthful status as a member of IAWS, Gustavus has already given distinguished leadership to the parent organization. In 1958, Patricia Trench, now Mrs. Duane Rosenberg of Minneapolis, emerged from the local presidency to assume a two-year responsibility as the Regional Director of affiliate groups at 40 colleges and universities in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois. What does AWS do on our campus? Each summer its members become acquainted through letters with incoming students, planning for their Little Sisters Parties, a style show, and a Nheels and hose reception in the fall. Young men too have felt the persuasive charm of the Big and Little Sister inliuence with the result that today a Big and Little Brother program flourishes on our campus. Members of AWS view with pleasure this broadening of the Feminine Frontiers theme of their national program. Despite a basic interest in government and in democratic residence hall living for women, they are not feminists. One need only watch starry-eyed students stroll two by two across the campus or listen to a fraternity serenade to realize that Gustavus hearts are young and gay. As the academic year evolves, AWS members sponsor the traditional reception for the Homecoming Queen, co- ordinate activities for the St. Lucia festival, and take well merited bows for the Christmas dinner and special- occasion coffee hours that win friends for the college. Each year their formal spring banquet brings a distinguished speaker to the campus. Noteworthy among recent choices have been the Governoras Lady, a leading dramatic reader, and Mrs. Minnesota. Active in the maintenance of standards and the en- couragement of growth in personal taste, AWS recently initiated a citation for the Best Dressed Woman of the Year, sponsored an Intuition Plus series on Etiquette and Charm, talks devoted to the all-important career interview, and cues for the perfect hostess. Academic interests too are fostered. Thanks to the initial ,encouragement of AWS the Guild of St. Lucia, founded in 1958, continues to honor senior women who lead the class in scholarship, the acceptance of civic responsibility, and service to the college. Another successful innovation established the past year drew forty students and faculty members together at supper meetings devoted to the dis- cussion of world events. The more freedom given undergraduates who are willing and ready to accept responsibility, the richer college life will be. May AWS and the branches of student govern- ment associated with it on campus come to realize the rich potential of leadership that is theirs!

At this spectacular, auctioneers John Droege and Jerry Springston sold everything from a date with UMOG to the president's chair. On Friday evening, the campus was transformed into Old Germany complete with the familiar pretzels and root- beer. Adding to the Bavarian atmosphere were the strains of music floating throughout the union. Saturday afternoon brought the much publicized Stu- dent-Faculty basketball skirmish. After an animated over- time, the students proved the victors and cheers raised the roof. Many thanks go out to the faculty for their high- spirited display of good sportsmanship.

G. A. HO ORS AND HQSTS In the tradition of Gustavus Adolphus, and the heritage we receive from this great man, each year a special day is set aside to commemorate his memory on our campus. Al- though we are ever mindful of his works and life, at this time the familiar statue is decorated and tribute is paid to our namesake - King Gustavus Adolphus. Once each year, Gustavus plays host to a throng of Hi- Leaguers for the purpose of orientating them to the college life found among the Gustavus family. This year's Hi- League day found hundreds of prospective Gusties milling among students and faculty members. The day's agenda included a style show, informative meetings to outline the college academic program, and dorm open houses. At the close of the day, the leaguers returned home, enlightened, enthused, and anxious to embark on their college career. What the typical Gusties wear is shown by Hap LeVander and Karen Swanson at the Hi-League Day style show. Perhaps Nancy Hunziker is explaining the history and color behind Old Gusl' to these Hi- Leaguers. 'l' . 'E 5 W ma, .. . .7 eil .

This year's Viking Veekend was held May 10-13. Bringing a new innovation to the color- ful round of events was the bicycle relay race competition between the sororities and the fraternities. OH:1cially opening with an all-school chicken chase on Thursday, the activities got off to a squawking start. In the evening, the junior-senior banquet was held in the cafeteria. Truly a highspot of the weekend was the Faculty Follies-Expose of Olde G.A., featuring such theater greats as Gordon Bennett and Arthur Glass. Following the excellent entertainment of the faculty, Sails in the Sun- set provided the ndanceability and swingabilityn for the veekend vikings. Athletic prowess was the keynote on activities as the canoe race and bicycle Gustie rnen and women have stamina fields.

Al Menzoirs of a senior class president The day dawned bright and sunny - one of the first real days of Spring. The 181 seniors arose early that morning because it was the Big Day - Senior Day.

But everyone was up early on that glorious Friday morning and we hurried to the Union to get the last-minute instructions about Senior Day in chapel. VVhat were our thoughts as we put on our caps and gowns for the first time and started the long walk around the triangle to the front door of the chapel, as we marched in to the processional and took our seats, as we listened to Dale Gustafson implore us to accept responsibility along with freedom, and as we stood and sang the Alma Mater? VVhat did we feel: A sense of pride and accomplishment perhaps, but also an awareness that there was much left to be done. Our work is only beginning. 1.1 QF G. A.

A major goal of a college senior nearing the end of his or her college career is receiving the diploma at gradua- tion. With this paper in hand, a needed impetus is given to face the cruel, hard worldn with an intelligent, forth- right, and clear mind. As the graduating class of 1961 looks back on their college years, they will have varied and assorted memories. Undoubtedly, the most poignant and vivid thoughts will be those connected with the last month, and particularly the events honoring the senior class as a whole. May 11 marked the evening of the junior-senior banquet, New Horizons. As guests of the juniors, the senior class was treated to an evening of both reminiscing and looking ahead to the future. Highlight of the evening was the message by Dr. Francis Gamelin, Gustavus graduate, presently assistant superin- tendent of the Robbinsdale school system. Entertainment for the evening was provided by two well-known campus groups, the What Fours and the Harmaniettes. The never-to-be-forgotten class will was read by campus wit, Myrna Zielske. Deserving members of the graduating class were in- ducted into the guild of St. Ansgar by Bob Peterson, and the St. Lucia awards were presented to the twelve junior girls receiving membership in the St. Lucia guild.

What senior will forget the colorful days when South Hall housed fifteen co-eds, the old crowded bookstore, the old udungeonw can- teen, or the Edgar M. Carlson Memorial Bridge? just as Gustavus grows, its students grow in mind and spirit. Its graduates leave the familiar life of college well prepared to enter a new career.

The blood of millions soaked its fields and ravaged towns. It had all begun when Bohemia, then Protestant, had rebelled against the emperor and chosen as king one of its own faith, Frederick, the Elector Palatine. Now Bohemia had been suppressed and Frederick's Rhineland province overrun. But the emperor, sensing fulfillment of the old family dream of a Europe united under the Hapsburg banner, had not stopped here. Now most of the German states which had chosen to become Protestant since the time of Luther and Calvin trembled in the grasp of his armies. Wherever his generals held sway, Protestantism has been thrust aside and Catholic power set in its place. This year his Imperial troops, with Wallenstein, his peerless leader, in command, stood overlooking the Baltic Sea. All of Europe, including Scandi- navia, was apparently his for the taking. Christian of Denmark had chal- lenged him and been put to rout. A few of the German princes had offered futile resistance. The remainder were either apathetic or paralyzed with fear. It was the most fateful year for Protestantism since Martin Luther defied Charles V, the Hapsburg emperor, at Worms in 1521. Its cause was doomed unless the new faith could find a worthy champion. He was not long in coming! For Gustav Adolph there was an almost complete coin- cidence between his own interests and those of Protes- tantismf' 118 Dorothy Aamodt 'LHC-:llo Walk with the Auditorium and Old Main Graduates Again Become Freshmen DOROTHY AAMODT - Minneapolisg Elementary Education, 15.5.3 AWS 1,2,3g Choir 1,2,3g CEA 3,4g Republican Club 45 WAA 1,2g Alpha Phi Rho Sorority 2,3,4g Gustavus Singers 1.

Traveling from nineteen states and three foreign countries with high school graduation a dim memory of the past, 416 curious, somewhat frightened, yet anxious, future Gusties came to Gustavus. After the first major problems of unpacking and meeting the First few were overcome, the freshman met registra- tion and orientation with similar apprehensiveness. The presence of a Big Sisn or Big Brotherv was appreciated as the newcomers began the multi-hour project of registra- tion. Tests were given from which some students were chosen for advanced courses. There were picnics, parties and dances, as well as the faculty reception. Then the seniors took over with initiation as the lowly freshmen donned their green beanies. Kangaroo Court pro- vided the discipline for those who failed to conform to the standards laid down by the seniors. The end of initiation brought the beginning of careers as full-fledged Gusties for the four hundred. 4'Old Gus , '6Hello Walk , CA , and Rancherino be- came a familiar part of their vocabulary. Christianity courses proved more difhcult than expected g chapel was attended each day. Lights burned, typewriters clicked, book pages were turned long after midnight. New friends were made: the social calendar was carefully watched and followed. Each of these . . . religious, academic and social aspects became an integral part of college life.

The freshman class, guided by its officers pictured below: John Johnson, president, Paul Kuehn, Vice President, Linda Hammarberg, Secretary, and Joanna Carlson, Treasurer, has been responsible for bringing much life to the Gustavus Campus. Speaking with the administration concerning class policy, and seeking out freshmen who will participate in tal- ent shows and other class sponsored activities are a sampling of the duties performed by the freshmen officers. The class produced a Hoat for the Homecoming parade, a successful Sadie Hawkins dance, and collected enough money within the class to buy the president's chair in the Campus Chest drive.

Anticipation ruled the scene as the worldly sophomores returned once more to the Gustie Hill. Renewing old friendships was the order of the day as well as orienting the frosh into the swing of campus life. Reminiscing over bygone freshmen days, they appeared quite confident that no class has or ever will exceed their heights in studies, picnics, and unity. Guiding their little sis and brothers through the trials of registration was a new experience for them. Sorority rushing, bids, and initiation played a promi- nent role for many of the girls as they worried and fretted over the outcome. The sophomores on the Gustavus campus have a well de- fined role. They must guide the freshmen and yet serve to activate the upperclassmen. In this they have succeeded, since many sophomores are leaders and active members in campus organizations. Then like all Gustie students, they settled down to class work and prepared to meet the academic challenges so readily presented to them. Work, study, and play combined to make a hectic but wonderful year for the class of '63, FRONT ROW: Elizabeth Stohl, Gretchen Bittrich, Kathy Roligg SECOND ROW: Carol Gustafson, Becky Anderson, Sandy Harlan, jane Bernard, Diane Hammergreng THIRD ROW Marietta Bittrich, Ginny Larson.

With that Green', year behind them, the sophomore class returned to campus with a greater insight into college life and a renewed enthusiasm for personal academic gains. In the spring of the previous year the class had elected as their class oflicers the following: Brian Johnson, Presi- dent, Fred Thorhorst, Vice President, Kathy Rolig, Secre- tary, and Clayt Peterson, Treasurer. With a tremendous amount of intellectual, cultural, and social potential, the class continued to achieve recognition in debate, drama, and leadership abilities. Taking part as leaders instead of followers in orientation activities, the year began much as the one before except for their elevated status. Christmas time brought the traditional St. Lucia festivit- ies with sophomore Ginny Larson reigning as queen. Her fame spread throughout Minnesota as the event was fea- tured in the Minneapolis Star and Tribune. Her royal court included Nancy Gustafson, Jan Spilseth, Ruth Ander- son, and Ruth Samuelson. The class of 63 now anticipates their junior and senior years in roles of upperclassmen.

BETHESDA URSES RETAI G. A. SPIRIT Each year Gustavus Junior Nursing Students leave for training at Bethesda Hospital in St. Paul, but this doesn't mean that they are no longer Gusties, These nursing students remain very much a part of the Gustavus family, and the college looks on with pride as they move onward to the fullfillment of their aspirations. They lead a life dedicated to the service of others. From the moment they oder themselves so dramatically in the words of the Florence Nightingale Pledge H. . . to pass my life in purity and to . . . devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care, each future nurse solemnly promises herself and her fellowman to live up to the standards of her profession. A life so dedicated is not without its moments of fun. The girls are shown relaxing after a busy day of classes and work at the hospital. As dormitory life everywhere, true Gustie friendships are made in these casual meetings. 1961 has been a very satisfying year for the college and for the nurses as the nursing department has received accreditation for its basic program including Public Health Nursing. It takes more than miles to separate them from Gustavus. If one doesn't see the nursing students back on campus for Homecoming, Frost Weekend, or other G.A. activities, then the nurses are seen as ardent fans at all the games and functions that take the Gusties to the cities. The Bethesda nurses truely do Remember Gustavus. FRONT ROW.'

They have on their roster, students from every part of the United States as well as several foreign countries - a truly cosmopolitan class for Gustavus, one- hundreth anniversary celebration. With the beginning of the last half of their college years, the new juniors begin to concentrate heavily on studies in their individual fields. The junior year is a test for most stu- dents, for it is during this year, more than any other that their leadership is demanded. The senate ofiices, political clubs, and the college newspaper stafii are all headed by jun- ior class members. The first two years for the juniors were 1'illed with exciting college moments. The sorority rushing parties for the girls and just becoming a part of college and all its activities were taken in stride. The nurses who have completed their first two years at Gustavus are now enjoying their training at Bethesda Hos- pital. By their increasing confidence, the centennial class of 1962 is showing their readiness for those final years of formal training. FRONT ROW: Karen Noren, Judy Flom.

VVith the help of their classmates, they began their work last fall with the publication of the Junior Directory, which includes pictures of all the students on campus. Next on the agenda was the Junior Carnival held in February. The carnival provided an evening of amusement and entertain- ment for the entire student body. The last major project of the class was the annual junior- Senior Banquet in May. The banquet began the Hnal round of activities for the graduating seniors. The juniors at this time entertained the graduating candidates and deserving seniors recieved the awards they have earned throughout their four years at Gustavus. It is an evening dedicated to honoring the Seniors. Dr. Francis Gamelin, noted psychol- ogist and school administrator, was the guest speaker. The theme of the banquet, New Horizons, set the jun- iors to thinking of their last year at Gustavus and provided the determination to make it the bes year yet.

He did so with mixed motivation. He loved his country and he loved his faith. He fore- saw in the aspirations of the House of Hapsburg a threat to both. He sailed across the Baltic in the spring of 1630 with his army of Swedes and Finns. Before the year was over he had based himself securely in north- ern Germany. Six months later he had advanced deeply into Saxony. At Breitenfeld, near Leipzig, the hitherto invincible Tilly opposed him. Gus- tavus attacked and was overwhelmingly victorious. Their encounter proved to be the crucial turning point of the Thirty Years War. The warrior-king, his generals, and his armies of Swedes, Finns, Germans, Scots, and Englishmen overran most of the rest of Germany during 11632. The greatest of the emperor's commanders, Wallenstein, had yet not been vanquished. The two warriors met at Lutzen. At Lutzen, as always, Gustavus fought in the fore-front of his army. It was here on November 6, 1632 that the good fortune which had attended him in countless battles deserted him. Gustavus was killed, but his grief-stricken troops, stung to madness and fury by the loss of their beloved leader, swept Wallenstein and all else from the Held. Gustavus Adolphus died as he had lived - in victory. Although the war dragged on for another half generation, and Cxenstierna wrote the peace, the cause for which he gave his life had been saved. So great was this kingiv genius that not the hundredth part of it can be expressed in wordsf' 168 FRONT ROW: Ellie Bjorklund, Karen Pierson, Carol Belmont, Bonnie Lewis, Lena Maria Carlson, Carol Villesvik.

The spring banquet, based on what A Young Man's Fancy turns to, was held at the New Ulm Country Club. The sorority has adopted into their program a new service feature involving weekly visits to the state mental hospital.

Beginning the year the IB's added twenty-eight peppy pirates to their crew. No sooner were the aches and pains of rushing forgotten when Homecoming rolled around. This year their brother fraternity, the Eppies, started a new tra- dition by choosing a Homecoming sweetheart, Joyce Hagglund. The winter banquet, held at The Loft in Mankato in December 3, was set off with a misty Candleglowi' theme. The spring banquet, also at The Loft, was entitled Only a Rose.

TALI MU Another heap big year for the TMT's. It all began in the fall when rushees wearing colorful headbands were greeted by friendly i'how's at the traditional Indian pow- wow rushing party. Initiation week saw fifteen pledges clad in painted Indian dresses and headbands bearing their names, singing songs, and doing stunts according to their pledge mistresses' wishes. TM's and dates were guests at Ye Old Boors Head Inn as they gathered for the winter banquet January 6.

TAU English theme, The Twelfth Nightf, was chosen with the programs and decorations reflecting this period. Skating by moonlight, dancing, parlor games, and hot cider made it truly an evening to remember. The spring banquet at the New Ulm Country Club proved to be just as much fun titled with the catchy theme of Hlt All Started lNith Eve. Leadership is found in the sorority and is recognized in the various campus organizations. Each TM contributes in making the sorority a vital and active group at Gustavus. A worthwhile project was accomplished by the TM's at Gillette Hospital when they presented their rushing party for the crippled children.

Twenty-two white and green clad pledges rode their ponies through the hectic days of ini- tiation to become full-fledged Alpha Phis. A lovely luncheon graced with the presence of the Aquatennial Queen who also headlined the parade made a wonderful Homecoming for the sorority and its alumni. Festively decorated Point Pleasant and the blended voices of the Phis made the pre-Christmas season com- plete.

After winning their final game the Deltas proudly show off their newly won trophy. QELLQJ, GO ERNING BODIES IFS A D ISS Although the activities of each sorority are governed by its own executive board, each group is responsible to the central governing body of all the sororities, the Inter- Sorority Senate. Throughout the year Inter-Sorority Senate plans all activities connected with the fall and spring rush- ing period and studies sorority projects or problems viewed in the broader perspective of the college community. This year the senate has established a one-hundred dollar scholarship, to be awarded annually to a sophomore or junior sorority member on the basis of scholarship and financial need. As the main governing board of the menls greek letter societies on campus, the Inter-Fraternity Senate has ended another year of eflicient coordination of fraternity activi- ties. The IFS exists Hin order to assist the college adminis- tration in maintaining its aims and discipline in the area of student social life, and to promote a friendly and co- operative spirit among all men and all social fraternities at Gustavus Aclolphus College? The president for first semester was Ralph Swenson, and Robert Huemoeller held the position for the second. Both presidents did an admirable job in furthering the ideals and goals of the senate. Mr. Howard Mickelson, advisor, helped to make the year successful by his com- ments and forethought. The Inter-Fraternity Senate is composed of the presi- dent and one representative from each fraternity who meet once a month during the school year. It is deemed an honor and worth the experience to serve on this council for the men of Gustavus. FRONT ROW: Dave Wettergren, Bob Huemoeller, Wayne Kneeskern.

TALI PSI OMEGA Claiming to be the 'fmost colorful fraternity on the hill, the Tau Psi Omega Fratemity is identihed by the black and red bulldogs on their L'frat jackets. Through the years the Reds have had the reputation of a sports enthusiastic group. The Red have led the roster in intramural sports throughout the year gaining the championship in intramural basketball. During Frost Weekend th'e Reds don tall white hats and become a domestic group for one night, Sponsoring the Annual Pancake Supper is the fraternity's fund raising project for the chapel fund. Collectively they have do- nated 3600. Fraternity activities have consisted of early fall and spring picnics and the annual Homecoming party. The Winter Christmas party at The Loft featured Milt Gustafson as Santa Claus to all the dates. On May 13, the Reds climaxed the year with their spring banquet at the Shoreland Country Club with the theme of The Playboy Ball. This year the Reds won the intramural basketball championship.

OMEGA KAPPA Playing a good season of intramural softball the Omega Kappa Fraternity had a record of one loss to the faculty resulting in a second place rating. Omega Kappa, the oldest fraternity on the hill, is char- acterized by the close fellowship of a group composed of varied personalities and interests. Sports minded, the OK's won the intramural football championship. They came in second in baseball, losing only to the faculty's entry. In basketball their able crew captured the number two spot while defending the title crown of 1960. The fraternity's social life centers around their banquets. The fall banquet was held at the Cat iN Fiddle with the theme of Gypsy Melody? 'LApril Love came in the spring with appropriate favors of umbrellas for the ensuing May showers. They are an active group being well represented among the various campus organizations. It may be added that their primary project for the past year has been to raise money for a set of carillon chimes to be placed in the new chapel. Under the direction of Charlie Jerabek and Wayne Kneeskern, fraternity presidents for the year's two semes- ters, this goal is about to be realized. Joined in True Fraternity, the OK Fraternity will hold up the great name they have made for themselves. -W 'Sv' r ' rl- :. - .. -A' ...Q .e - , EPSILO PI ALPHA Characterized by their fun, frolic, and friendship is the Epsilon Pi Alpha Fraternity. Their voices are heard and abilities are recognized in all phases of campus life. Under the spell of L'Mistletoe Magic Part II the Eprpies held their winter banquet at the Century Club in Man- kato. Mr. Bennett, the speaker, gave one of his famed ban- quet talks. The spring banquet at the St. Peter Country Club was enhanced by the theme All Through the Nightf, With beautiful weather being their fate, the next day was spent on an adventurous canoe trip down the St. Croix river. In honor of Dr. Reuseh, the Eppies have instituted a fund which is raised for the purpose of sponsoring two boclyguards for a missionary in Africa. The Eppie Chorale, known as one of the Gustavus fine singing groups, performed at Homecoming and Frost Week- end variety shows. In thespring, the Eppies always enjoy their annual fish- ing trip. Throughout the year they have enjoyed supper meetings and Eppie picnics with their sister sorority, the Iota Betas.

Individualism and diversity are two terms that are descriptive of the Garnmas. Members of the fraternity have shown their leadership and abilities in such fields as de- bate, football, swimming, politics, and performances in the fine arts and dramatics. The fraternity represents this same quality of excellence when performing as a unit. The Gamma Chorus participated in the variety shows and the High League program. The unity of the Gammas is strengthened in the serenades of the women's dorms. They have become such a tradition that be it in the spring or the bone-chilling evening of winter, a Gamma serenade will always warm a young GA coed's heart. These serenades have proven to be the beginning for another Gamma enterprise: The Sound of Men. This record album has been presented to the public to raise money for the Gustavus foreign student scholarship fund. The fall banquet took the men and their dates to the St. Paul House in Shakopee, Minnesota and then on to the University of Minnesota to hear the Minneapolis Sym- phony Orchestra. The spring banquet in a Polynesian Paradise was held at the New Ulm Country Club followed by a day of water sports and relaxation at Forest Lake, Minnesota. Sarongs, leis, deck pants, and barefeet were the atire of Tom Hirsch, Gary Anderson, Lynn Ostebo, John jungas, Dick Hult- berg, and Joe Peterson at the Ga.mma's Polynesian Paradisef, PHI ALPHA The Phi Alpha Fraternity tradition was again upheld this year with all of it's prestige, honor and jocose fellow- ship that surrounds it. Long noted for their enjoyable fall and spring banquets, the Phi Alphs have quite a reputation for the charming way in which they entertain the member of the fairer sex. The Phi Alphs also have for their sister sorority the Alpha Phis with whom they have picnics, sponsor social functions, and join in supper meetings. With this added feminine touch the Phi Alphs find an enjoyable change of pace from their daily college routine. One of the highlights for Gustavus students each year comes with initiation week in the spring. The Phi Alphs are regarded as leaders during this week with their jovial and unique antics. Homecoming, banquets, picnics, supper meetings, and initiation week all headline fraternity activities. But prob- ably the most significant and measurable fraternal act for members is the Phi Alpha dedication of the Nel P. Langs- joen Memorial Reading Room in the new language Hall. Dedicated to financing this room the Phi Alphs have united in a close knit expression of brotherhood. For the Phi Alphs we must truly say . . . a brotherhood, stead- fast, strong, united in fellowship are we.

HI IOTA KAPPA Once again another year full of brotherhood, friendship, and service has come to a close for one of the oldest fra- ternities on the hill. Some of the improvements made this past year were the addition of new red blazers, a new and more modern emblem for the jackets, and new sweatshirts with emblems. As seen by their participation, social events were a strong point of the Chieftains this year. In the spring came the rushing party with all its color followed by the never to be forgotten fun of initiation week. They were represented in the Homecoming parade and gave the annual Homecom- ing party after the game. The fall banquet graced the theme of Party in Poinsettiasf' The beautiful spring ban- quet, Ports of Paradise, was followed by a couples party the following day. Their Junior Carnival booth, Little Bit of Vagas proved to be a big success, and a Hne show- ing was made by the Arrowhead teams in the intramural program. The highlight of the year was the fishing and camping trip in northern Minnesota. Amidst the fun and activity the fraternity put on a new first at Gustavus, the First Annual Men's Fall Review. The Chieftains gave S300 to the Gustavus Chapel Fund and sold Dairy Queen credit cards with the proceeds going to the Nobel Science Hall. The year was concluded with a supper meeting with a final farewell to the graduating sen- iors. Showing the effectiveness of his Chieftian paddle is Jerry Hem ness on his victim, Orrin Teitz.

Organized in 1914 as the Clionian Society, the Kappa Sigma Chi Fraternity has well kept its tradition of being a cosmopolitan organization. Known for their diversified talents, the Kappa Sigs take justifiable athletes, and singers join in the toast of good fellows. They have discovered that a membership based on many and varied interests creates a strong fraternal unity in a social group. To fill out the social calender of the fraternity was a full year of date parties and stag socials in addition to picnics with their sister sorority, the Sigma Deltas. The fall banquet, held at the Moose Lodge in Mandato was titled Wintertide.', Intramural sports helped to form a part of their well rounded schedule. Highlighting the year's activities was the spring formal, Highland Flingf' at the New Ulm Country Club. In keeping with tradition, the Kappa Sigs, clad in white dinner jackets, entertained their dates at a lawn party be- fore their banquet. The following day was spent at Lake Washington where boating and swimming was not at all out of order. Wherever seen, on campus, at a banquet, or ushering for a campus activity, it is plain to all that the Kappa Sigs take to heart the words from their fraternity song, Bear the torch of friendship onward.

In conjunction with the State Theater of St. Peter, the Indies focused their energies on sponsoring the Trans-Lux Film Festival Series. Films such as Ten Last Days of Hitlerf' Sapphire, and Black Orpheus were shown at intervals throughout the year. Selling close to six-hundred tickets brought the total amount of money contributed to the Science Hall Fund to 3850. In January a banquet was held at the Cat 'N' Fiddle in New Ulm. After the smorgasbord dinner a marathon four hour program went into full swing. It featured such cam- pus personalities as Hot Lips VVennerlund, Rock-A- Byen Barks and Jerry The New Year's Babyi' Springston. An occasional pun was thrown in by P.K.

LICES GUSTAVLIS ADOLPHU Each year is different from the last. Each is new and unique. Each demands attention on its own special and important events, new ideas, and grand achievements. Years at Gustavus change too, and each school term com- mands notice because of its newness. To capture this change is an aim of the yearbook staH'. To photograph, print, and bind together in a tight package helps to pre- serve both in picture and in word, each college year - years abundant in memories for every Gustavus graduate. A publication long in the making, the 1961 Gustavian staff formulated its plans by mid-summer and began the compilation process at the commencement of the academic year. Be it sports, special events, or organizations, all have their place in the Gustavian, Richard Strand centered his attention upon recording the college's academic life, as Bruce VVarner covered the Golden Gustie achievements in athletics. Glass representa- tion found its way to the printers through the work of Jan Hultberg. Nancy Gustafson covered organizations, and the year's special events commanded the care of Marilyn Heier. Each editor made ,good use of the staff photographers, Al Person and Jim Mansfield. Money matters were com- mandeered by Ralph Swenson. with income assistance given by Noel Estergren, advertising manager. Under the direction of editor, Doug Holmen, the 1961 Gustavian produced Namesake - Gustavus Adolphusf' ff vac-rf Nancy Gustafson, Organization Editor, spies a desired picture from the strip of negatives held by Al Person, Staff Photographer. Regulating the finances for the annual are Ralph Swenson, Busi- ness Manager, and Noel Estergrcn, head of Advertising. it-Lf I . ZJ ii Planning the paper requires a diligent schedule for Hap LeVander and Gail Linsey, the Weekly editors. Here they are in the midst of laboring over next edition,s layout sheet. Concentrating on the copy -sheet are Dick Moody, Mike Torkel- son, reporters, and Dave Nelson, Sports Editor. EEKLY W NS ALL- Sixteen college journalists have combined their efforts this year to publish 32 more issues of the WEEKLY. Get- ting order out of the chaos which ensues every Wednesday afternoon in the Ranclrerino office was trying at times, but most of the time, colorful to say the least. The staff worked hard at copy-reading, counting out headlines, and cropping pictures. They were well rewarded with another All-American honor rating. Every Thursday afternoon has been spent in Le Suer at the Eastwood House of Printing where the staff read proofs and put the final touches on the paper before it went to press. Friday is the reward day for the staff wh'en members of the student body eagerly await the WEEKLY's appear- ance in their post office boxes. Anoth'er event which made it all worthwhile was the an- nual Associated Collegiate Press Convention in Chicago in November. Here the delegates learned new techniques and ways to improve the paper. This year the editors have tried to make the paper a voice of the student body, but it has covered more than campus events. In bringing in outside issues, the WEEKLY has constantly tried to keep before the students the fact that Gustavus is only a small part of a much larger whole. Gail Lindsey edited the paper first semester, and Hap LeVander took over the executive position second semester. -r,.. 5 ...-.- M., ,E Ji, , 1, 5 3 ig 5 1 wgf With disinterest written on her face Judy Lankos, Feature Editor, poses for Jim Mansfield, Staff Photographer, for an ultra close-up picture.

SENATE ERSLIS REFORM The Senate in the past year has continued to serve the students as a sounding board for student opinion and grievances as well as the campus work horse, sponsoring the many weekend activities such as Homecoming, Frost Weekend, Viking Weekend, and Parents Day. The Senate discussed and acted upon measures which were in the interest of students. Many committees were formed to deal with problems such as the correlation be- tween car ownership of students and their failure to do satisfactory academic work. More hard work was rewarded by the recently adopted student congregation which the Senate promoted. Front to Back: Don Rahn, Lou Ann Eckberg, Dick Blenkush, Donna Olsenius, Denny Anderson, Dick Strand, Brian Johnson, Elaine Axdahl, March initiated the commencement of Senate trans- formation. With the watch word Responsibility the movement stressed each students awareness of college mechanics and their role in the school's improvement. In May the final degree to abolish Student Senate as our form of government was passed by a vote of 20 to 6. Comprising the new Executive Committee are five oflices, President, Secretary, Treasurer, Public Relation, and So- cial Chairman. Because of the enthusiasm and forbearance of the Ex- ecutive Committee and all Senate members, this has been a revolutionary year.

FOR I96O ELECTIONS The purpose of the Gustavus Y.D.F.L. is to stimulate in- terest in the workings of government in this country and to educate students in the ideals and purposes of liberal politics in America. With the important presidential election in 1960, the Gustavus Young Democratic Farmer-Labor Club, while in a definite minority on campus, showed much enthusi- asm and activity. During the year, the organization sponsored a rally and reception for Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, the senior senator from Minnesota. The Gustavus Democrats took an active part in cam- paigning for President Kennedy, Senator Humphrey, and ex-Governor Freeman, in addition to other state and na- tional candidates. The members went from door to door in St. Peter, Le Suer, and Le Center distributing literature and pamphlets. On campus, the club cooperated with the Gustavus Young Republicans in sponsoring a political rally and mock election, two events for which the student body turned out in large numbers. The club also sponsored a booth at the Junior Carnival urging students to 'Tin the Tail on the Donkey. Leading the Democrats this year have been Denny Anderson, President, Dick Hultberg, Vice President, Ruth Sammuelson, Secretary 5 and Dave Frykman, Treasurer. In retrospect, the Gustavus Y.D.F.L. has had one of its most successful years at Gustavus.

THIRD ROIV: Ellie Bjorkland, Nadine Ku- seske, Sandy Luedtke, Linda Wilson, Elizabeth Johnson, Sue The year 1960-61 was an exciting year for politics and for the Gustavus Republican Club. The Club, under the leadership of Paul Tillquist, Correen Silseth, Sandra Berge, and John Lipke, increased in membership from 75 to over 300, becoming one of the most active organizations on campus. Club action included sponsoring the appearances of John Roosevelt and Walter Judd at Gustavus. Walter Judd came for an afternoon reception and John Roosevelt for a second district Republican rally. In an election year, the most important project of a political organization is its campaigning. Gustie Republi- can supported their candidates. The highlights of the year were the State Convention in Minneapolis and the Midwest Republican Federation Convention in St. Paul. The college Republicans discussed current issues and determined a party platform. At the State Convention, Paul Tillquist represented Gustavus by running for State Chairman. Correen Silseth was elected to the oHice of Region VIII Co-Chairman at the Mid- west Convention. Educational programs, including opportunities for Gus- tavus students to express themselves politically, were held throughout the year.

Anderson, Hap LeVander, Karen Halverson, and Donna Sederburg comprised the team who traveled and debated to the greatest extent in away tournaments. While debate is an age old activity, it has been only in recent years that it has become a very popular contest. Re- solved: That the U.S. should adopt a system of compulsory health for all citizens was the question debated this year by Gustavus and other schools throughout the nation. The debaters prepared and studied their material with the re- sults showing in a very successful year. Gustavus debaters witnessed debate popularity by at- tending numerous debates throughout Minnesota as well as Nebraska, Wisconsin and Oklahoma. It was at Still- water, Oklahoma where the Gusties demonstrated their ability by taking second place in the National Pi Kappa Delta Tournament of some 150 schools. All in all, the debaters participated in ten major tournaments winning approximately 75? of their debates. Professor William Robertz of the Speech department coached the team throughout the year. Debate on the Gustavus list of extra-curricular activities ranks high in interest and importance. The following years should find even more numerous debate tournaments as well as public debates on campus whereby all students may get a better understanding of the art which is beautiful and just. ATIO AL ALPHA KAPPA PSI FRATER ITY In May 1959, the Epsilon Xi Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi, National Business Fraternity, received its charter from the national chapter. This fraternity is open only to men who intend to receive a degree in economics or business administration. Leading the local chapter this year was Robert Knud- sen. The other officers are: Don Farringer, Vice President, Ralph Johnson, Secretary, and Terry Skone, Treasurer. Faculty advisors are Robert Peterson of the admissions of- fice and Rufus Logan, Ellery Peterson, and Kyle Montague of the business department. In December the local chapter -sponsored a field trip to the Federal Reserve bank in Minneapolis. In the spring the fraternity visited Midwest Technical Development Corpo- ration. Here they were able to watch a stockholder's meet- ing in process. On May 10, eight pledges passed their written examinations and were formally initiated into the fraternity. Alpha Kappa Psi held its banquet at the coll'ege cafe- teria on May 15. At the banquet the Wfall Street Journal Award, presented to an outstanding senior member, was given to Paul Johns. Ralph Swenson received the Alpha Kappa Psi Scholarship Key which is awarded to the senior member with the highest scholastic average. Honorary membership was conferred on Arnold Ryden, president of Midwest Technical Development Corporation.

The club began the year with a weekend trip to Minne- apolis touring KSTP-TV, Walker Art Institute, Star and Tribune, and attending a play at th'e University of Minne- sota, Look Homeward Angel. A Christmas party was held in December at Rundstrom. All the foreign students wore their native dress and de- scribed Christmas in their country by songs and their customs. The African students related the current issues of Africa today to the campus in the program entitled Africa Speak- ingf, The Cosmopolitan Club at Gustavus certainly belongs to the whole world. The programs and discussions gave students a better chance to know one another and other countries better. The members began to realize that what happens in the churches of Sweden, the schools of Japan and Indonesia, the struggling people of Africa for their national independence, is important to the people at Gus- tavus Adolphus College. In this club, it is realized anew that every person is an ambassador of his country and that foreign and Gustavus students have an obligation to each other. Jonal Nkurlu, Nicholas Goursky.

KGAC SOOO YOUR DIAL Broadcasting from the northwest corner of the Ranch- erino is situated the student owned and operated KGAC radio station. It operates at a frequency of 800 and runs one-hundred hours a week. News and music, from popular to jazz or classics, com- prise the majority of the programs. A new addition, Cam- pus Challengef, was a live broadcast sponsored by SCA. Gustavus students discussed a variety of subjects including the student congregation and the African issues. KGAC is proud of its record in away sports casting this year. Bill Eckerly, Carl Frings, Horst Truestedt, and Ro- berta Mutch have traveled to Duluth, Nlankato, and Kan- sas City to broadcast the Gustavus games. As a novelty KGAC has obtained human interest stories on tape from Britain through the British Information Serv- ice, heard once a week.

PEP BA D ENLIVENS GUSTIE GAMES Here is presented the G.A.C. Pep Band or The Gus- tavus Adolphus Chamber Music Society or SPOBMOCl' - Society for the Prevention of Better Music on Cam- pus.', Whatever you call it, here is a group that has given many hours to enliven the atmosphere at Gustie games both at home and away. Each man has that rare ability to play 'Lby ear fno printed music allowedj. Then add to thisa barrel-full of enthusiasm, and some ham. When these elements clash, the result is a chain reaction well known to Gustie routers. The trumpet blasts, trombone slips, and fancy reed choruses give out a mighty sound for such a small group. Tunes like '4Nellie,,' Take a Leg, and Gusties Will Shine have become traditions. Led by Walter Wright, the year has been a good one for the Pep Band. After many years the group has been rec- ognized by the college as an organization. The migration to the Duluth basketball game Q40 piece band versus 13D and the Mankato State game at Hamline Q50 piece band versus 13j showed this baker's dozen to good advantage. At the end of the basketball season, our GA. Pep Band was honored with an invitation to the N.A.I.A. Kansas City Tourney to represent Gustavus and the N.A.I.A. as the nation's small college pep band. Miclsemester exams at this time necessitated the groups refusal of this journey, but the honor of this recognition still remains. Blasting their music, the Pep Band displays their talents on a KGAC live broadcast. l u AQUATIC LEAGUE IMITATES NOAH'S ARK Bumble bees, teddy bears, chipmonks, turtles and swans . . . everywhere. '4Noah's Ark, the annual Aquatic League water show brought all these and other creatures to the Gustavus pool. With clever costumes and colorful lighting effects the twenty water lovelies swam several fascinating numbers. The show was under the direction of Joan Eck- berg. It began as the animals came off the ark swimming Two by Twof' Rabbits appeared with their pink tails and ears while the fireflies lighted the way. Teddy bears picnicked and the seals played with pep and zeal. Snakes slithered eerily through the water, while the swans added charm and beauty as they floated along. The gay Web- foot Waltz concluded the annual water show. Although the group is primarily a swimming organiza- tion the girls also sponsored bake sales and participated in the Junior Carnival. With the profits from previous years the girls traveled to Flordia during Christmas vacation. Here they basked in the sun and attended sessions at the Women's National Aquatic League Forum in Miami. Four of the Aquatic League members, -Iaynice Hafdahl, Linda Miller, Lee Monachesi, and Susan Hill will swim in the Aqua Follies during the summer and perform in Seat- tle and Minneapolis. Two rabbits, Sandy Allumbaugh and Carole Weisbrod have just hopped off Noah,s Ark to perform their number in the show. 3---.. ' xug m gan' 0 sa, Kagkw W Q wx- .

The purpose of this organization is to promote physical efficiency and a keen interest in recreational sports. They provide an oganizecl program of athletics for the campus coed. Some of their activities available to them are swim- ming, basketball, tennis, bowling, softball, volley ball, and trampoline. Climaxing the calendar was the WAA annual banquet. This year it was centered around the theme of Sport Lite and was held at Cook's Cafe. The program began with the director of the girls, physical education at Mankato State, Dr. Ruth Shellberg, who spoke on her trip to Europe during the past summer. To highlight the evening the next years oflicers were chosen. They included Mary Dahl, President g Heather Harshberger, Vice-President, Carole Peterson, Secretary, and Sandy Beehrle, Treasurer. A point system is used to evaluate the members activity in the organization throughout the year. They receive points for participation in athletics and selling ice cream, which is their fund raising project. XVAA plans to give fifty dollar scholarships to four active WAA members next year. The most active member receives a WAA blazer. The WAA also provided an opportunity to partake in inter-collegiate play days and tournaments. 200 One of the more actively played sports of WAA is basketball.

ENERALLY unknown is the fact that it was the u 4 ,gt,,f,,,:m,.D1ls rw., ml i.3,Q.'t.'l' J , ..., idea of Gustavus Adolphus to establish a Swedish colony in America. His cherished dream was not unique. Several of Europe's powers had al- ready founded colonies across the Atlantic and begun to reap benefits from the bounty of the virgin continent. He was naturally striving for advantage to his country, but he had other and more lofty purposes in mind. He had conhded these aims to the citizens of Nuremberg only a few days before his death. His instructions to his chancellor concerning its establishment carry a strangely familiar ring. They should! They breathe the same spirit as the words of our Declaration of Independence and of our Constitution written more than a hundred and fifty years later. This colony, he wrote, should be a free state where the laborer should reap the fruit of his toil, where all should be secure in their persons, their property and their rights of conscience. No slaves should ever burden its soil. It should be an asylum for the persecuted of all nations, a place of security for the honor of the wives and daughters of those fleeing from bloody battlehelds and from homes made desolate by the fire and sword of the invader. Five years after the death of Gustavus, Oxenstierna planted a Swedish colony on the Delaware. It is interesting to speculate concerning its impact on the shaping of America had Gustavus Adolphus lived to impart to it the benefit of his versatile genius. In the world is none that is his equal, nor has there for centuries been such a oneg and indeed I doubt whether the future will produce his peer. 202 . ,Lg A ,L 'Sk sa 5 111, y E i rg-5 A 2, gf filings?

The Republican party was ably represented by Ancher Nelsen and John Roosevelt who presented the idiology of the G.O.P. Senator Hubert Humphrey and Senator Eugene McCarthy stated the strong points of the Democratic party with rallies and interesting speeches.

The political clubs were at a maximum, activity-wise, while planning rallies, debates and teas.

The play is a rollicking farce based on the story of a wealthy merchant from Yonkers who decides that he must marry - so acquires the services of a matchmaker. The problems and confusion of the situation produced unbe- lievable consequences which finally unraveled to a happy conclusion. Under the able direction of Mrs. Evelyn Anderson, the cast led by Lennart Vretholm, Daniel Johnson, Paul Til- quist, Linda Lundgren Erickson, Stephen Geyer, and Ro- chelle Dahlin produced successfully one of the most diffi- cult forms of drama, the farce. These leads were well supported by Darrol Bussler, Sandra Swenson, Richard Blenkush, Venita Swanson, Myrna Zielske, Richard Dunn, Joan Boyum, Gary Kenning, Stephen Benson and Barbara Johnson in the theater's first presentation of the dramatic season. Trapped in a millinery shop in New York are Vandergelder's clerks who must answer to the shop hostess, Myrna Zielske.

A cast of seventeen enthusiastic students portrayed the story of the young Count Almaviva, Dan lVIalloy, struggling to get the hand of Rosina, Nancy Hunziker, against the wishes of her guardian Dr. Bartolo, portrayed by Gary Walton. Arthur Collins played Figaro, a barber who aided the Count in winning the hand of the beautiful young maiden. The ensuing conflict produced a most enjoyable show for everyone who witnessed it. In one of the lively practice sessions, Dan Malloy, Gary Walton, Nancy Hunziker, and Art Collins relax between scenes.

In January, 1961 the choir toured several provinces in Canada. Perhaps one of the highlights of the tour was singing in the newly built Alberta Jubilee Audi- torium in Calgary. In addition to the tour, the choir made several appear- ances on campus at Homecoming, at the Carol Service and the Christmas service, Parents' Day and Commence- ment.

MUSIC PRQGRAMS RAISE N W INTEREST New and varied musical programs on campus raised new interest in that fine art this year. The highlight of the year was the appearance of the Eastman String Quartet, a group specializing in chamber music. Among the recitals given, one of special interest was presented by Ethel Pehrson who had just returned from a sabbatical leave to study in Vi- enna. Late in the spring, the Gustavus Adolphus Spring Choir Festival brought the Willmar Boys' Chorus and the Augustana Lutheran Choir from Omaha to participate. These events rounded out a great year for the line arts at Gustavus. This is how the finale looked to those who attended the Spring Choir Festival.

The showings varied from modern contemporary to classical-to photography and student projects. Several artists were hon- ored with teas while their works were on exhibit. One of the most interesting displays was of the creations of grade school children from Paris. The wealth of art shown in the Gallery this year taught a cultural lesson that could not be reproduced in any class- room. The technique and talent needed for great pictures was discussed by Mrs. Bertha Vickner, Dr. Carlson, and the photographer him- self, Norman Lorhammer. l N J. .W wi a,x..e-.ggi ,H , - - M I Explaining one of his most interesting creations to Dr. H.

The legendary St. Lucia was a young Christian maiden whose coming symbolized the return from darkness to light as she brought Christianity to her parents and an Italian community. As the tradition was carried to the Scandinavian countries, St. Lucia emerged as a symbol of faith, courage, and the end of long winter months of darkness. Queen Ginny reigned over several exciting AWS spon- sored events including a Swedish cafeteria breakfast, the beautiful chapel service, and afternoon reception in honor of the queen and her attendants.

One of the most active and dedicated of our campus organizations is the Student Christian Association which strives to further the religious atmosphere of Gustavus. Through its interesting programs, inspirational Bible stud- ies, and vesper services, SCA brings students to a more meaningful and vital understanding of Christianity at work on the college campus. One of the highlights of SCA's year was the sponsoring of a two-day lecture series on The Global Mission of the Church. Guest chapel speaker was Professor Donald C. Flatt who served for ten years as a missionary in North Tanganyika and is presently Professor of Missions at Chicago Lutheran Theological Seminary. Another interesting guest speaker was Mr. Warren Witte whose views on disarmament and pacilism proved very enlightening. The St. Peter State Hospital visitation program, headed this year by David Matson, is one of the service projects associated with SCA. The officers, President Ted Stoneberg, and members of SCA deserve much credit for their willing and devoted contributions to student religious life.

The shirt-sleeve weather brought scores of parents, friends, and well-wishers to the hilltop to witness the conferring of degrees on 182 Gustavus seniors. Together with mortarboards, tassels, and the large-sleeved black gowns, the excitement and beauty of the occasion was complete. With the stadium overHowing and the practically completed Gustavus chapel looming in the background, speaker Mr. John Cowles, president of the Minneapolis Star and Tribune, discussed the importance for awareness of the world situation in his commencement address. John Van Deusen set precedent as he shifted into high gear and sped across the front of the stage in his electrically propelled wheel chair to receive his diploma from President Carlson. Not a graduate tripped, slipped, or faltered dur- ing the conferring ceremony. Graduation moved like clock- work, and within two hours and some odd minutes, the new alumni shed their wet robes from the heat of the day, received hugs and smooches from wives, friends, and par- ents, loaded up their cars, and vamoosed from the campus scene. Not without looking back, not without shedding a tear or two, 182 college graduates moved out to begin life outside the school atmosphere. Memories of happy times projected through their minds, and thoughts and plans for the future took their place. Still Gusties, these 182 people joined ranks with possibly the most spirited college organization, the Gustavus Alumni. s A'1-Kd ff - - 2 ' x - Srwirf-A. 4 -X I Q , - - f, ' , - IX 1-5 -L-1195K 3912-K7 -1 4 ,., .U':X A K ' . - fig ...- '-- V: f, y?Cw'4 4H1 ' X' - ' , ,- v - 'Nah 1 W H - rf x K r A, 'xrxjx A , Us A V r ,ik Q., 4, UQ 4 W , 'P V- ff-,L H vi, lf I 1 .yr -Ulf ,. 1 .Xxx 3 A I .pl . , D K--' - - 5, ,Q .1-gflv-'R .L-5, 1: , ' ,Xxx ,-g,',..,x 'Nw rf'-4.

ANSGAR A ARD WINNERS Michael Blaese Judy Carlson Gustavus Adolphus College has two tributes to the Benedictine monk, St. Ansgar, whose name originally en- titled this school when located at Red Wing, Minnesota. One is written on the milestone found beneath Qld Main. The other is the Guild of St. Ansgar whose membership includes those students who have added considerably to the fame of the college - outside as well as inside the classroom scene. The students pictured here are the newest membexs elected to that guild. To be selected for membership in the Guild is a distinc- tion gained by scholastic achievement and leadership dis- played in campus life, be it in student government, college publications, or campus special events.

ANSGAR AWARD W NNERS Michael Blaese Judy Carlson Gustavus Adolphus College has two tributes to the Benedictine monk, St. Ansgar, whose name originally en- titled this school when located at Red Wing, Minnesota. One is written on the milestone found beneath Old Main. The other is the Guild of St. Ansgar whose membership includes those students who have added considerably to the fame of the college - outside as well as inside the classroom scene. The students pictured here are the newest members elected to that guild. To be selected for membership in the Guild is a distinc- tion gained by scholastic achievement and leadership dis- played in campus life, be it in student government, college publications, or campus special events. Along with the qualities of the school's faculty and its administrative capabilities, the accomplishments of these students help to retain the Hrst-rate ranking of Gustavus among colleges. l Karin Erickson Linda Erickson Virgene Grack Dale Gustafson Milton Gustafson 1 X14 Karen Halvorson Nancy Hunziker Paul D.

Nevertheless, this was our task and we undertook it with enthusiasm. It must be admitted that our early smiles of anticipation were at times supplanted by frowns of frustration, but these moments became fewer as time passed and actually added to the journalistic ripening of all of us. A year's time and the combined efforts of nine people have been utilized in producing this 1961 edition of the college year-book, NAMESAKE - GUSTAVUS ADOLPH US. Our task has now been finished. We are re- lieved, happy and satisfied. It is for others to determine whether we can be proud as well. The story of Gustavus Adolphus, the king, proved to be fascinating. The time and study necessary to retell it adequately in less than two thousand words was an intriguing challenge. Our respect and admiration for the man increased with each paragraph we read about him. This now completed task has not been accomplished without much assist- ance. We are indebted to Mr. Holger Lundbergh and Mr. Allan Kastrup of the American-Swedish News Exchange and Mrs. Margareta Soderblom of the Royal Swedish Embassy whose assistance in procuring research ma- terial proved invaluable 5 to Mr. Gosta av Petersens, Swedish Consul Gen- eral, for advice and counsel, to Mr. Northrop Dawson, Jr. and Dr. Robert Holmen whose ideas and editing assistance helped immeasurably in the re- alization of this book, to Mr. and Mrs. Burnett Anderson of Washington, D.G., to President Edgar Carlson, Mr. Ren Anderson, Dean Melva Lind, Mr. Ross Bloomquist and many others at Gustavus. Our sincerest thanks go to all of them. A special word of thanks is due the Lorhammer Studios for their expert photography and kind and patient service. To the American Yearbook Com- pany and its untiring representative, Mr. John Smith, for their technical as- sistance, we are grateful. To the student body of Gustavus Adolphus Col- lege, we give our thanks for the privilege of producing the 1961 Gustavian. 1961 GUSTAVIAN EDITOR 228 2535391 ml, . . n un, r M - lj, ,i j '.
