Clubs Offer Fun for All
College is more than homework and tests! With the beginning of the new school year, students of DMLC will once again have the opportunity to spend many enjoyable hours participating in the organizations of their choice. To acquaint both the 'new and old' in the various campus activities, the Messeoger presents a short insight into their functions and purposes. STUDENT
GOVERNMENT The main co-ordinating body of all student activities for DMLC is the Collegiate Council. The Council is composed of four elected representatives from each class. They meet weekly to discuss and organize campus functions such as the Snow Carnival, Mission Fair, Arbor Day, Activities Banquet, and others. Making the student life at DMLC run smoothly and enjoyably throughout the year, is a great service to the school rendered by this governing body. Besides Collegiate Council, the Student Union Board also functions as a part of campus gevernment. With two representatives from each class present at Its meetings, the board controls activities within, and makes all important decisions concerning Luther Memorial Union. PUBLICATIONS The student newspaper, The
Messenger, and the campus yearbook, the Excelsior, are the two DMLC publications. The Messenger is published monthly and covers all aspects of college life. The staff's aim is to produce the best possible paper to inform the students, faculty, alumni, and others about DMLC. Interested help is always needed and welcomed on the staff. The Excelsior staff seeks, through writing and pictures, to compose a panoramic view of the year's activities. It attempts to offer to it members practice and knowledge of journalistic techniques important to the composition of a first class publication. Assistance on the staff is also always needed and appreciated. CHORALIERS Two singing groups of outstanding quality and direction are the Aeolians and Marluts. The former is composed of college women and the Marluts, college men. These singing groups meet weekly to learn music for Quistmas caroling (followed by a joint party), and for two concerts during the school year. Their selections are secular, both classic and popular. SPORTS Within the sports medium, DMLC offers to the student the Pep and 'L'clubs. For those with energy and spirit, the pep club promises much fun and action.
Dedicated to the support of the college athletic teams, it provides pep rallies, offers refreshment service, and organizes all Homecoming activities. The 'L' Club is comprised of letter winners within the student body. It sponsors an annual volley ball tournament for area churches, sells schoolemblem T-shirts, jackets, and sweaters, and offers canteen service at various athletic events. Students are encouraged to join these organizations as a means of expressing their support to athletics. ARTS For the student who wishes something more classic in design, there is the art club, an informal club dedicated to increasing knowledge on various artists, their lives and their works, on art periods, and art media; they sponsor regular bi-monthly meetings. Demonstrations and lectures are often presented, and plans for the club-sponsored Children's Art Fair and Campus Art Fair are begun early. One highlight of the club's activities is an art trip to the Minneapolis Institute of Art in early spring. The arts offer a means of expression for these interested in dramatics. The DMLC Drama Club is an active organization on campus, (Continued on page 2)

DEAN LLOYD HUEBNER
Dean of Students Greets Collegiates Students We are, indeed, looking forward 10 welcoming you 10 our campus in New Ulm. It will be a pleasure 10 greet you and meet you when you come 10 Dr. Martin Luther College in September. Some of you will be beginning your college education. Others of you have attended one or more years at another school. All of you are coming to D.M.L.C. to prepare yourselves for full time work in the church. We pray that the Lord may prosper you in order that your goal may be fulfilled to lead little ones to the arms of Jesus. How Important this work Is especially in the day and age in which we are living. With Satan going about as a roaring lion, many are giving way to him. Today many people want to belong to a church as though it were a club of some kind in which they merely pay their dues and attend a few of the services. But this is not real Christianity. It is not the Christianity so sorely needed in our day, which is based on true obedience to Christ's command to go teach, and serve. "Be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only," says our Lord in James 1:22. We are not to hear God's Word one day and promptly forget It for the next week, or month, or more! Out of gratitude for the many blessings of God, our lives should be dedicated to HIm leaving behind everything that would distract us from serving

We praise God for touching your heart and moving you to enroll in our college where you can prepare yourselves to be .Hls co-workers. You may be assured that we will do all in our .powerto make your stay with us pleasant, directing and guiding you in the path which will glorify HIm and be of service to our fellow man. L. O. Huebner
In the name of the gracious Lord Whom we together are called to serve, the Board of Control, faculty, and staff join me in extending to each of you the warmest of welcomes for the 1970-71 academic year at Dr. Martin Luther College. There will be some problems as we seek to assimilate an unprecedented number of new students into our campus family. While we have tried to do as much advance planning as possible for a one-third increase in enrollment, obviously there will be areas which we have overlooked or have not planned for properly. We have every confidence, however, that we will have your understanding and cooperation in our common effort to make Dr. Martin Luther College an ever greater source of dedicated, full-time workers for the Wisconsin Ev. Lutheran Synod and the saving Kingdom of God which it conscientiously seeks to build throughout the world. We simply take it for granted that you have enrolled here out of love for your Savior and that your goal is to serve HIm. We wish to assure you that each faculty and staff member is dedicated to helping you achieve that goal and that we
Council President Foresees Good Year Fellow Students: Summer is passing swiftly and we're almost to the point where we start to think more about the coming school year and what it will bring, than we do about the ,school year that has just passed. As we think about it, we wonder what this year will be like. Freshmen will wonder whether college will be as enjoyable an experience as everyone says it is and at the other end, Seniors will wonder where the other three years went as they contemplate going out into their chosen field in just one more year. Meanwhile, while everyone's busy wondering, opening day is approaching steadily. Once it comes, students are busy meeting old and new friends and settling into the routine of school life, that they have no time to wonder what a whole year will be like. Everyone is busy living each day as God presents it. Here is where your Collegiate Councilworks. They provide the organization that is required to handle the things which help college life to run smoothly and to help provide a few highlights for your college career. Among these we would include the Homecoming, the Chrlslmas Party, the Snow Carnlval, and the Activities Banquet. But both of these functions require the help and cooperation of every
student on campus to make them succeed. College life can only become meaningful and enjoyable to you if you involve yourself in some of the extra things on campus and make them become a part of you. So, what kind of year is the 1970-71 school year going to be? With a dedicated and cooperative .student body around us and God always beside us, it's going to be a very good year. So welcome to Dr. Martin Luther College and may this year be a very good year for you as you prepare to serve our Lord. Daniel Gresens

are here to serve you as we too serve our Savior. We ask you also to join us in welcoming the twenty new faculty members beginning their service to the Lord on this campus during the course of this academic year. May the Lord bless each one of us in the work into which He
has or is calling us. The joint efforts of faculty and students alike can do much to help the members of the Wisconsin Ev. Lutheran Synod take advantage of the tremendous privileges and opportunities the Lord is laying before us in a world otherwise hell-bent for destruction. Conrad Frey

Clubs Offer Fun for All . (Continued from page 1) especially during the time of their annual student-sponsored production. Presenting, "Hello Dolly" this year, membership within the club will promise both excitement and experience for all involved. Another dramatic group is the Children's Theatre. Entertaining the area grade schools' children through their student 'productions, the club annually sponsors a children's play. Last year "The Land of the Dragon" stole the hearts of many. They also find time to delve into the various areas of interest concerning drama and music within the classroom.
SCIENCE For those who find their forte in the world of science, the Phlogistons offer a break into the everchanging scientific scene. Functioning also within this area Is the photography club. This group is a 'snapping' organization dedicated to 'saying It with pictures!' DMLC does indeed offer much for the student. It is now up to the student to offer something to DMLC by becoming a part of student life and organization in a club. It might be well to watch the bulletin boards for further information concerning meeting dates and sign-up sheets.

Reformation Fingers - ~ched around a D8ll. A firmly grasped hammer was raised Into the air and then deliberately lowered with full force on its target; the nail inched its way Into the Castle Olurch door. Loud pounding sounds echoed throughout the city of Wittenberg until with a final stroke the ninety-five theses were posted. The day was October 31, 1517. This long-remembered and celelrated day is observed by some Quistians as the beginning of the Reformation. This year Dr. Martin Luther College and Academy set aside the Sunday, November 1, for a mass Reformation service. All campus students and members of the Lutheran churches In the New -Ulm area gathered together for this 17th annual service to once again remind themselves of the real blessings of the Reformation. The eight o'clock worship service was conducted by various churchmen throughout the area. A sermon was delivered by Pastor W.F. Vattbauer from the Fairfu congregation and the liturgist

DMLC's 'Dolly' To Come to Life December 4-6 Many "Firsts" can be attributed to the DMLC Drama Club's 1970 musical "Hello Dolly," which will be staged December 4, 5 and 6. DMLC is one of the first schools In the country and the second In Minnesota to produce this musical which has been widely acclaimed as the longest running musical on Broadway and one of the best musicals yet filmed in Hollywood. Of special interest are the costumes to be used in the DMLC production. One gown that is worn by Dolly for the curtain call, was used in one of the original Broadway productions. The costumes have been rented from the same company which furnishes costumes for the Melody -Top Theatre in Milwaukee, according to the musical director, Doug Klitzke. The publicity department is this year dealing with an expanded publicity area. "Hello Dolly" will receive coverage in 170 newspapers, in contrast to 30 publications used in musicals of previous years. This includes a quarter-page spread in the MANKATO FREE PRESS. Work on "Hello Dolly" began last spring when the part of "Dolly" was cast. The lead role went to Karen Hasley, a college
senior. Other parts went to Keith Lauber playing opposite Dolly as Horace Vandergelder, Jackie Hall as Irene Malloy, Karen Luber as Minnie Fay, John Bauer as Cornelius, John Schoeneck as Barnaby Tucker, Ned Goede as Ambrose Kemper
and Diane Kalbus as Ermengarde _Vandergeliler. In addition to the main characters, there will be a 3(). member chorus and a dance chorus. The latter includes some Martin Luther Academy students as well as collegiatea.
Under the direction of .Mr. Roger Hermanson, a 28member orchestra will provide background music along with keyboard work by Mr. Charles Luedke and Miss Judith Kresnicka, both members of the DMLC music faculty.

'Acorny' Tale Those not new to the hilltop mayor may not have noticed the sizable increase in the squirrel population on campus. There have always been a goodly number of squirrels and nuts up here, but for the first time in many years, the squirrels are threatening to outnumber the nuts. We pause to ponder the situation. One of the campus' leading authorities on ratios was recently questioned about the problem. He terse-, ly observed, "I don't know, but it's a good thing." Wetend to agree with him. The food supply dwindles a bit faster (those at the end of the acorn line get leftovers) and there is just adequate housing. (In spite of the fact that local woodpeckers reamed out a new tree and renovated an old one, many squirrels are quartered in off-campus saplings). Yet, these annoyances are totally eclipsed by a warm, wholehearted unity existing within the entire furry populace. Apparently, many of the squirrels migrated to NewUlm from points east, often from comparatively larger communities. Most however, have readily taken to their new home and have found enough to do to keep busy and happy. Popular opinion to the contrary, no two squirrels are alike. They are of diverse abilities and dispositions, yet there is a singleness of direction to all their scampering - an apparent striving toward one goal. This fact may shed light on the question of why they chose to take up residence in this particular clump of trees.
Music Department Gains Choir, Organ The new school year has trought several new items to the music department, which is headed by Prof. Meilahn Zahn. Most notable among such ad" ditions are a new choir and new orllan. Prof. Edward Meyer is conducting the newest addition to the eboral division of the music department. Beginning Its first year on campus, the College OIorale is the third mixed chorus for DMLC. Primary functions of the OIorale will be concerts, both sacred and secular; occasionally singing for chapel; singing for the radio church services for WELS members In New Ulm and surrounding areas; and for services at St. Jobn's and St. Paul's

expressed dismay at the mIn!ma1 male turnout for the College OIorale - there were over 711 women who signed up but only four men. Following an evening chapel service, Professor Zahn asked for more male voices with the result that enough men signed up to make the new choir a reality. Continued on Page 4

Professor to Depart New VIm For Mequon"s Gree-n Pastures By CAROLSBRESNY The DMLC family has a faculty of several unique men individualists. Leaving the college is one such man. Professor Edward C. Fredrich came to the religionhistory department with more than fifteen years of experience In teaching and six years In the parish ministry. He is a graduate of Northwestern College, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, and has a masters degree in the field of history from Michigan State University. Leaving American history behind, Professor Fredrich will be teaching· at Wisconsin Lutheran SemInary in the areas of OIristian education and early church history. The exact time that he will assume his duties at Mequon Is yet to be decided by DMLC President Frey and WISCOnsinLutheran Seminary President Lawrenz.
At Dr. Martin Luther College Professor Fredrich has achieved distirictlon as an in· dividualist with a unique approach to teaching and with an unusual sense of humor. Professor Fredrich's name has often been synonymous with the word "test," and each test has been synonymous with a new "learning experience." Each test was a journey Into a new land, each trip Impossible to anticipate. Students went on

(EDITORS' NOTE: TbIs BrUcieIsthe first In a series designed to acqnalnt students with faculty members new to DMLC this year.) By JUDy VATER As the school bell rings calling students back to college, it also serves as a welcome for many new faces on the campus. Three new faculty members welcomed are Professors William McCollwn, A. Kurt Grams, and John Iseh.
Professor McCollum
Professor William McCollum, who recenUy moved to New UIm from Scottsdale, Ariz., gives his impression of Dr. Martin Luther College as follows: "I am very impressed with the college and the way in which it is established. I am very proud to be a member of the staff." Professor' McCollum has a very broad education. After graduating from high school in Miami, Fla., he attended Concordia College in Fort Wayne,· Ind., and Concordia Seminary, st. Louis, Mo. He has a master's degree from the University of Arizona and also attended Arizona State University, Delmar College in Corpus· Christi, Tex., and Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff to further a background in reading and special education. He first served the church as a pastor. and later on as an assistant pastor in Corpus Christi, where he was principle of a SpanisIHipeaking mission school. Following this, he taught for five years in Chino Valley, Ariz., and for the past two in Scottsdale. Professor McCollum and his

All·· ·of'· the - candidates· presented their speeches to the collegiates on Thursday evening that week.

Inexperience of the team be.came evld~nt by the many mistakes which the players committed. However ,late In the first half, Paul Hartwig scored on an assist by Mark Bootz, and Luther went ahead at half, 1-0. In the second half, the Lancers began to "gel" offensively. The game began to be dominated by the Lancer playing. Goals were scored on offensive drives by Paul Hartwig and rookie Jim Bauer. The final score showed a 3.() victory for the Lancers. ST. OLAFVICTORIOUS On October 7, the Lancers traveled to N?rthfield to take on the tough-mmded Oles of St. Olaf College.

' From the start, Lather was completely outhustled and outplayed. Pillsbury took advantage of Luther's poor passing attack and scored five goals In the first half. IAlther bounced back In the second half containing the Pillsbury off;nse. The damage was already done, and Luther returned home with a smarting defeat. GUSTAVUSWINS In a game marked as a "shooIn" for Gustavus, the Lancers put on a strong defensive shoving that held Gustavus to only five goals. Up until then, the Gusties had been averaging eight to ten goals per game, according to Coach Dallmann. The Lancers w~re often h~dpre~ ~ the skill of the highranking King Gustavus players but managed to hold the Gusties to two goals until the bottom of the last half. Luther also became the first team to score against Gustavus. Randy Westphal scored on a penalty kick late in the first half. Final score read Gustavus 5, Luther 1.

~;~: In 'Joustebout' ST.CLouD, •. .,- A.serious shortage of teachers of the ,.hearing Irilpalred across' the country has prompted a new academic program at st. Cloud State College. This fall for the first time st. Cloud undergraduates can enroll In an education major focusing on the hearing handicapped. The only other state school with a program In this area, the University of Minnesota, has its focus at the graduate level, according to Dr. Stanley Knox, chairman of St. Cloud's special education department. The neW program Is being handled jointly by the departments of special education and' speech science, pathology and audiology at St. Cloud and the University of Minnesota and st. Cloud's elementary education department. "U .S. Office of Education figures show that 75 per cent of the hearing impaired In this country are not receiving services," Knox said. Even the university's graduate program has fellowships that are riotused because the state previously had no undergraduate program, he added. Under St. Cloud's program, students do their work In elementary education and basic psychology at the state college and receive an Introduction to special education and some technical training in speech and hearing. Following a pre-student teaching practicum In speech pathology and audiology, students go to the university for four technical courses In teaching of the deaf. The student teaching experience that follows Is jointly supervised by the two schools. "Introduction to Education of Hearing Handicapped" Is the only new course In the interdisciplinary program. Dr. Donald Moores, internationally-recognized authority on hearing impaired children, travels to st. Cloud from the university to teach the course. Both Knox and university personnel are excited at student interest in the new program. Seven have applied for the program already, inquiries have come from many other Minnesota colleges, and projections are that the program willinvolve at least 20 students next year, a large number for a new program Insuch a specialized area, Knox said. +

sr. PAUL, 'MInn. ~ Phi Beta, Chi fraternlty of the Unlverslty of Minnesota·Duluth has broken the world's kegrolling record. Some 40 members of the fraternity rolled an empty keg 150 miles, from their campus In the northern Minnesota port city to the front door of the Theodore Hamm Brewing Co. in St. Paul, on the weekend of October 111-12. The toppled record was 101 miles. ' Phi Beta 011 President Richard Nelson and his fraternity, lrothers have this advice for others attemptlng'to beat their record: ' ,: - Call or write ahead, to police officials in towns along the route, and to the state highway patrol. - In coolclimates, wear heavier clothing, but not too heavy. Running and walking with a beer keg generates a lot of body heat. - Wear brlghtly-colored clothing so that drivers can see and avoid you. The first piece of advice stems from a nearly disastrous encounter with a policeman near North Branch, Minn., Saturday around midnight. The group had trouble convincing the lawman they weren't staging some sort of unique, longdistance demonstration. The new world's champion keg rollers were treated to a lratwurst .luncheon In the Rathskeller In the Sky atop the Hamm's Tour Center, and were presented the "True Grit" award In the form of a large German beer stein by Hamm's Master Brewer Thaine Johnson.
This year's Student Union Board has already begun making changes In' Its administration of the Luther Memorial Union., They have made' the use of the "Joustabout" free for campus students. This was done because the SU Board treasury had accumulated a subtantlal amount of money and It was felt that this would be the best way to return the money to the students. , The SU Board' sponsored a "Guitar Fest and Sing Along" after the alumni basketball game on November 21.

Once upon a Ume, we all felt like that, being white, and middle class, and not at all sure of the future.

On these calls we went direcUy to the children's homes, and spoke to the parents concerning church and Sunday School attendance, baptism, and home reinforcement. These calls were, perhaps,. the most revealing of all the contacts we had, for here we sat in a personal confrontation with parents, concerned about their children, and spoke of Christ and the child's need for some type of Christian education. On the last weekend in Milwaukee, a few of the churches had a final service, with songs by the children, a sermon, and baptisms.

There really are other people in the world but German Lutherans; there really are people who couldn't care less about Christ; there really are thousands of unbaptized souls in the world. The fields indeed are ready and the harvest great. However, we must not assume that witnessing is so narrowed that it can only be
done in the Milwaukee loner City. It can be done right here on campus - to that roommate who could use a word of encouragement; it can be done at home - to that relative you know doesn't attend church; It can be done anywhere - to the sick and the elderly, the needy and the widowed.

Food Manager, Baker Serve Hungry Students As most people tend to be concerned about the quality of the edibles which they introduce into their systems, it seems only natural that they should also be interested in the people who govern the whole food-making process. With this in mind, I'd like to introduce to you Mr. Karl Tague, our new food manager, . and Mr. Ernest Stoltenburg, our new baker. Before he came to DMLC,Mr. Tague .lived in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin; from here he commuted to Madison where he managed the cafeteria for the American Family Insurance Company. Mr. Tague is married and the father of two children - a 13-yearo()ldson and an ll-yearo()ld daughter. One of the major questions that is being asked this year has
to do with the standard type noon lunches being served by the food service. There is a variety of opinions concerning the feasibility of such a program; and when he was interviewed, Mr. Tague seemed especially interested in finding out what the general consensus on campus was concerning this new program. When he was asked why this new eating system was 'initiated, Mr. Tague replied by stating that with this type of a program students could be offered a variety when they came to luncheon rather than just a choice of two casseroles, etc. Since hamburgers and hotdogs are considered the "AllAmerican" standards, he started off the first two weeks with these sandwiches as' the main features. Then, If the
students preferred something else, there was always another sandwich to choose from or a casserole that was offered. .contrary to popular belief, this new eating program is not easier for the cooks. 10 fact, it involves more work than before because they now always have the buns and other Ireadstuffs to make for the noon meal. The new baker came to DMLC with twenty years of baking experience behind him. Mr. Stoltenburg was formerly from Clinton, Iowa, where he had been working for the past five years as a factory worker in an arsenal. Two of Mr. Stoltenburg's four children attend school atop the hill. One of .his daughters is presenUy enrolled in 'the coJrege and another attends MLA.

Three Departments EDITORS'NOTE: This article Is the second In a series designed to acquaint students with faculty members new to DMLC. By JUDy VATER Representing the departments of English, mathematics, and music are- the following three new professors at Dr. Martin Luther College: Richard Buss, John Mlcheel, and Francis Schubkegel. Professor Buss, a member of the English Department, has recently Joined the DMLC faculty from Northwestern Academy in Mobridge, South Dakota. In his five and a half years at Mobridge, he served as Dean of students and taught English. Prior to this, he was for six-Md.. haU years
at Hettinger and Reeder, N. D. Dakota State University where When asked about his family, he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree. Professor Buss replied, "I am my family." It is interesting that Professor In addition to his regular Oldfield, in whose department classes, Professor Buss Is also a Professor Micheel now is a freshmen-class advisor.

Bears, -Hikes" Tourists. Lure Lancers to Glacier By SUE FALK "Glacier fever"-a new disease? No, just something contracted by several DMLC students who were employed at Glacier National Park this summer;Among them are Jean Manthe, Dorothea Siegler, Sharon Sting, Chris Metzger, and Karen Kaphlngst. Located In the Rocky Mountains of Montana and Canada, Glacier could well produce the major sympton of this disorder -a love of the mountains. The mountains, however, provided only part of the fun of the summer. The other part was meeting people, both fellow employees and tourists. students from one coast of the Unites States to another, and even some from Hawaii, worked at .Glacier. Living and working with these people of varying backgrounds and holding discussions in a Sensitivity Group developed many friendships and a broader outlook on life. .The various jobs, from waitress to gift shop clerk to tour' gulde, provided an easy . means to meet tourists. They came from all over the world: United Nations ambassadors, Austrians who loved to swim In, the cold water, an English couple whci couldn't get over maple syrup. And, of course, there were funny Incidents, like the French woman from Montreal locking herself In her room. She spoke no English, and therefore found it rather difficult to communicate her problem, but she was eventually rescued by a desk clerk who climbed through the

Window and opened the door from the inside.
Another more exciting way to meet tourists was by hitchhiking. Since employees are not ' allowed to have cars until they are 23,"hitching" was about the only way to travel from one of the five areas of the vast park to another. A state law ruled "thumbs down" on using the thumb to acquire a ride, So pillowcases bearing signs such as "Glacier Park employee needs ride desperately" became quite common. It ·was these rides, according to Chris Metzger, that one learned more of the different and unusual ideas of the tourists. If Glacier employees thought the tourists were unusual, the tourists may have had the same ideas about them. What are people supposed to do when all of .their waitresses or clerks suddenly desert them for a few minutes, and then some return I108kingwet? Of course there was a logical explanation for the incident-a fire drill ! Because of the serious damage a forest fire could cause, all employees belonged to fire crews and had to be ready for a drill at any time. Then, if one of the men at the simulated fire area lost control of the -hose, they also had to be ready for a midday shower-and an embarrassing return to the job. Some of the antics of their servers must have been even more interJlsting to the tourists. For example, the maids had water fights; the waitresses sometimes wore hiking clothes to work. The tourists in
Dorothea's area on the last days the park was open made the best of the situation, though. Instead of just being stunned when the dining room employees marched between the tables wearing kettles on their heads and banging pots and pans together, the tourists joined them. On their days off the studentworkers would get up early and set out for a twenty-mile hike or overnight camping trip. These camping trips were not without their problems and perils. All contact-lens wearers will sympathize·with those who had to put their contacts in over a small mountain river, at the possible risk of watching all the money in that tiny piece of plastic float downstream. A more immediate danger, however, was bears. Anyone who forgot to hang his back pack in a tree to keep the food from attracting the bears might have a rude awakening in the middle of the night. One didn't have to leave the lodges and go out into the woods to encounter bears, however. ,The friendly animals liked the campgrounds, too (especially the area where Chris and Sharon worked). One of them, evading the rangers for five nights, exasperated the poor men so much that they posted a sign reading: Uttle Cinnamon Bear 5 Big Rangers 0 Finally, when some of the students apprehended the culprit, they couldn't find the ranger. Wouldn't you .know he was out watching the bear (Continued on Page 8)
Gain Profs Connie Fischer, were married last August. The new Mrs. Micheel is presently employed at Union hospital-as a LPN. sports are of special interest to Prof. Micheel, who has served as assistant coach for the college. He also helped with football and track on the academy level. Among his other interests are photography and the great outdoors . Prof. Francis Schubkegel, who originally hails from Ada, Minn., is a, member of the DMLC Music Department. In addition to his regular classroom duties, Professor Schubkegel Is advisor to the junior class and was recently asked to be advisor to the .' Children's Theater. He and his wife Joyce have three children Cathy, 7; Timothy 5; and Jean, 2.· Mrs. Schubkegel is presently teaching class piano and organ at DMLC. Woodworking is Professor Schubkegel's favorite hobby. He also enjoys fishing when the occasion arises. As to his pet peeve, Professor Schubkegel most appropriately lists _ MUD! In addition to piano and organ, Professor Schubkegel at one time played baritone in his band training. He fll'st became interested in music while taking lessons in his childhood: Before coming to New Ulm, • Professor Schubkegel taught at Wisconsin Lutheran College in Milwaukee. It was while at' Milwaukee that Professor Schubkegel had a rather lBIique experience. When his. family moved to New Ulm in the' middle of May, Professor Schubkegel was given tem-
porary housing in the dorm for the remainder of the school year. When his students discovered this, he was given an unusual college Initiation namely that of being thrown Into the swimming pool.

Luther managed to take advantage of many Concordia mistakes, and consequently, kept the ball deep' in Comet territory.

The first goal came ten minutes irito the first half with Paul Hartwig scoring. The next two goals, both also scored in the first half, were scored by wing Mark Bootz. The second half became a: rather wild affair with neither team able to keep up a consistent attack due to the everworsening field' conditions. In many cases, players were hard to tell apart because .of the' fact that they were completely covered by mud. Although Luther made a few scoring threats, none were successful. The game ended in a 3-0 victory for Luther. The following Saturday, October '31, Luther hosted Pillsbury in' the conference championship showdown. Although the weather conditions .were 'cold and- windy," nei ther team appeared to notice. The game started out on an even note with both teams handling the ball well,' and making several unsuccessful scoring threats. However, halfway through the first. period, Pillsbury scored on a fast break by the Comet center forward. Later in the period, the Comets scored' again on a similar play. At half, the score showed Pillsbury ahead, 2-0. Luther came storming back in the second half, however, the Lancers dominated play throughout most of the entire half. Luther scored its first goal on a score by Paul Hartwig from fifteen feet out in front of the goal. Minutes later, Bill Maschke scored from almost the same position. After this, Pillsbury tightened its defense, and although the Lancers kept the pressure on, they were unable to score. The game ended in a 2-2tie. The tie gave the championship to Pillsbury. The Lancers ended the season in second place in the MRAC standings with a 3-1-2 record. For the entire season, Luther

Individual honors were bestowed upon Paul Hartwig, Stan Cole, Randy Westphal and Mark Bootz, who were named to the AllConference team. Randy Westphal was also chosen by his teammates as Most Valuable Player. Prospects for next year look promising with only four starters graduating this year. There will be a solid nucleus around which next year's team can be built.

The DMLC College Choir, under the direction of Professor M. .Zahn; will appear on a special <luistmas telecast on ImYC-TV, Mankato, Saturday. at 4:30 p.m. The cbolr taped their program on December 11. All members of the College Choir participated In this appearance. . Opening the program, the cbolr sang two Advent numhers: "Savior of the Nations, Come" In a setting by Kenneth Jeske, 1962, and "Uft Up Your Heads, 0 Ye Gates" by Evert Westra. The Jrogram continued with the well-known carol, "0 Uttle Town of Bethlehem." The motet style. was presented In "To You This Night Is Born a Cilld" by Georg Forster, 1544. Carl Nolte accompanied the choir for G.F. Handel's "For
Unto Us a Cilld Is Born" from the MESSIAH. Following this was another carol, "While By My Sheep" by Hugo Juengst. They next sang the. Paul Bouman arrangement of "A Babe Is Born," which consisted of five parts, theme and variations. Probably the major work SWIgby the choir was a part of Brahms' GERMANREQUIEM. "How Lovely Is They Dwelling Place" was sung, with Margaret Eggert and Dorothea Siegler playing the four-hand piano part which Brahms wrote for this work. "Silent Night" concluded the p-ogram, the choir using a descant by Emil D. Backer. Narration about Quoistmas was glven between the numbers by the choir.
Juniors Adorn Bulletin Boards In Mueic "Geflte,.,.__ The last time you went racing to your music lesson, did you happen to catch a glimpse of the gaily-decorated bUlletin' boards? Professor Meyer . reports that members of his classes are required to put up these displays so that, "the future teacher may be given an opportunity to plan for elementary school teacher situations." Thus, the practicality of the project is evident. In addition, the bulletin boards "focus attention on musical education." Professor Meyer has been taking slides of the displays and tends to use them as the basis for future lecture periods - so that other students might benefit from them also. He also mention that many students are saving their displays for future use In the classroom. On the whole, he feels that the displays have been "very well done." Many other people have also commented to him on the attractiveness of the displays.

school, we were told that there was no God, no heaven or hell, and that Jesus was all nonsense. They tried to impress upon us that from the beginning religion was begun by the ruling class in order to cheat the people. They tried to maile ~ ,hate and despise religion. Later the communists banned many books, including the Bible. Many people in China never heard about the Holy Bible. Iwas told about it by my family who had used that book as a text book when studying in a secondary school many years ago.

Standing Ovations Proclaim 'Dolly' Theatrical Success By DIANE KALBUS Thundering ovations, over· joyed faces, and a spirit of dramatic success characterize the impressions filling the hearts and minds of all who viewed the Dr. MartIn Luther College Drama Club's prOduction of "HELLO, DOLLY!" held December 4-3 In the campus auditorium. Playing before a four· performance sell-out crowd of approximately 3,600 people, the dynamic musical terminated many hours of planning, hard laboI" and eager anticipation. UDder the topic at meatrlcal success, DOLLYhas become a legend in the minds of all who participated. As an over· powering, overwhelming Dolly Levi, Karen Hasley won the hearts of all she met, includ)ng the well-known Yonkers half· millionaire, Horace Van· degelder, articulately played by Keith Lauber. She brought happiness Into the lives of Cornelius Hackl and Barnaby
Tucker, strongly portrayed by Jolm Bauer and Jon Schoeneck, through nurturing romances with the charming refined Widow Molloy and her scatter· brained helper, Minnie Fay, in the persons of Jackie Hall and Karen Lauber. FInally, she dried the eye of the sniveling Ermengarde Vandegedler, Diane Kalbus, by arranging the pennlssion of her Uncle Horace for the marriage to her young determined artist Ambrose Kemper (Ned Goede). Great comic roles of the show which brought down the house were well executed by Paula Wilbrecht as Emestina, the obnoxious personality sent to humiliate Horace during the Harmonia Gardens sequence; Steve Kienzle, the 8O-year old judge with the "flaming beacon of a nose"; Jon Hahm as Rudolph, the disciplined headwaiter, and Kathy Deines as the alling Mrs. Rose. A spirited, smiling, 3O-member
chorus, plus an eight-member dance chorus, blghlighted the two-hour show. Comprised of DMLC and Martin Luther Academy • students, they combined to shatter reality with bright costumes, flowing banners, and a bombshell of song. As a fantastic, fracturing 1lI"0duction.much of HELLO, DOLLY'S achievement can be' attributed to its director, Douglas KlItzke. Doug, a voice of experience In 'the theater, was the overseer of all con· struction, choreography, stage and light design, plus an unending list of minor decisions. "HElLO, DOLLY'" Is the fourth musical at DMLC with which KlItzke has been Involved. Teclmlcally, the behlnd-the· scenes people likewise set forth much timely effort and per· fectlon to contribute to DOLLY'S greatness. (Conti.nuedon Page 4)
sentences from It. But In Olina I only saw a Bible once. That was before the culture revolution. Some people moved It to my house. They were my brother's friends and my schoolmates. Their father was shot because he had worked for the Nationalist anny before the Communists came. I did not know if they were QnistIan because In China no one acknowledges himself as a OlrIstian. Some letters written in the book told me that the books was bought after the communists came and bought in a church. During the culture revolution my house was searched by the Red Guards but we had moved the Bible to a secret place so they did not find it. Later we returned the book to our friends. If they had found the Bible, it would have been destroyed and we would have been punished. I have relatives In Hong Kong. Before the culture revolution was we would get Olristmas cards from them and so Iknew what 0lrIstmas was. From the novels I knew about Jesus' crucifixion and the words of Easter. Of course, I knew nothing about the meaning of' these things. Most of the people
In Ulina, especially the younger generation, know nothing about Ouist1anity BDd Jesus Christ. Some do, but they only blaspheme It. In China, Ouist1anity was al_ys linked with the "aggression of the imperialists." As soon as the culture revolution began, all, the churches became the first target of the Red Guards.

He said that all the books were thrown on the floor, tom Into pieces. All the table, desks and chairs were cceflscated by the Red Guards. If there were any mInfaters or students in the College, they were sent to the countryside to farm or to )abor tmnpS. I thank God that now I can live and learn God's sacred Wordfreely and lbope someday the Holy Spirit will go to everyone's heart who are now under the rule of communists. I hope that I can he one of the Olinese to return to QIina to tell my fellow-men about eternal life through Jesus Ouiat our Savior.

A DYING ART
Cabinetmaker Calls Walnut His 'Board of Education' By BARB KNAPP
From the outside It Is very plain, very¡¡ American, very much like any other brick bulldiDg In the DMLC mainteoaDce complex. Upoo entering, however, one Is greeted by the tingling, woody scents of fir and pine, and a friendly, German "Welcome, Come In," and it Is aJmost like stepping Into the Black Forest. Located next to the. boiler room, the carpentry shop Is the eigbt-to-four domain of Heinz Zickler, DMLC's carpenter. HeInz has been at work there since 1952, hammering, aswing, and making wood chips fly to meet the carpentry demands of a growing school. Walking around the campus, one encounters his woodwork - a chair here, a table there, the gates In the student-unlon lounge, the music rack In the band room, the remodeled rooms In West Hall, the altar In the LMU auditorium. . Looking no farther tIlan the campus, one misses what may appropriately be called the most beautiful of HeInz' work, the wooden Items which he designs and mskea In his free
hours. Such items are found throughout New 1Jlm - at HeInz' home and In the homes of his friends. "Come over to our house and we'll show them to you," he Invited. It was a memorable experience. A knock on the front door of 17 South Payne again trought a friendly "Welcome, come In.'' Built by the Zicklers In 1959, the house Is not Isrge, "but big enough for my wife Else and me," Heinz said. Birthday PreseDt Entering the living room, our attention was immediately drawn toward a cblna-cablnet, about six-feet tall. Ornately carved from black walnut, with brass latice-work doors, it contains Mrs. Zickler's glass collection. HeInz built it last year for his wife's birthday, working on It In his spare hours. It took many weeks to complete, but working eight hours a day, It would bave taken him about a week to make, he said. A furry head suddenly appeared from around the corner. "Ab, Jaeger!" Heinz snapped his fingers. As HeInz Introduced us to hIs!lilinguaJ mlniature-
Schnauzer puppy, Mrs. Zickler brought In two wooden jewelry boxes, both made of black walnut and birch. One Is octagcn-shaped with eight compartments; the other Is .heart-shaped. The lids of both jewelry boxes are black walnut; the outer edge of each box consists of alternating thin strips of black walnut and birch. Music Box Mrs. Zickler Irought out a music box, also made of black walnut, and shaped like a grand piano. As he wound up the music box, Heinz said tbat the music mechanism was originally a part of a musical beer stein owned by Mrs. Otis Stelljes. Mrs. Stelljes offered to let Heinz have the music but wanted the stein back. "When I finished making it, she said she wanted the music back," Heinz recalled, Jaeger cocked his head as "Brahms' Lullaby" suddenly tinkled from the tiny piano. Jaeger led the way down to the basement on which Heinz and his wife are currently working. More "Zickler originals" - an Advent-candle
Heinzis holding his favorite piece, a dish carved out of oak. Alsoshown are other woodpieces which Heinz designed and made - two jewelry boxes and a music box in the form of a grand piano.
Beautiful in black walnut is this china-cabinet which Heinz Zickler made for his wife's birthday. holder, Easter egg. cups, a black-walnut cross Inlaid with birch, and his favorite piece, a dish hand-carved from oak with ''Give us this day our daily tread" carved In German in Inch-high letters. HeInz uses black walnut and birch chiefly because of their beautiful grain, he said. Mrs. Zickler's china closet was a five-and-a-half foot blackwalnut tree stump, located between two of the Waldheim professorages, In 1953. When the college cut the stump down, it was given to Heinz. He cut it into boards and let it dry out for 16 years hefore finally using it last spring. "The wood could be used after five years," he said, "but then there Is still the danger of warping." Heinz began both his life and career In the same place Bochem, a city of 400,000 In West Germany's Ruhr Valley. Asked how he happened to choose the career of a cabinetmaker, he replied that it was natural: "When I was small, I always had a hammer in my hand. Sometimes I hit the wrong nail - my own!" Apprenticeship In Bochem, Heinz became apprenticed to a master cabinetmaker. As an apprentice he learned not only the actual working with wood, but also the theory and mathematics behind it. He was taught how to read blueprints and to construct mechanical drawings. He learned how to distinguish the best quality wood from the mediocre and poor. He outlined the course of study: "First the master teaches you how to make, for example, a 'dovetail.' Next you draw it. Then you go and make it. That's what you have to doto become a cabinetmaker.'
He explained the German .apprenticeship system. "For every trade In Germany, not just cabinetmaking, you have to have a license. For every trade there Is a 'Berufschule,' a trade school. Here you work

under one man, usually retired, about 50 or 60 years old. Only the men with a master's degree can teach." The "Berufscbule" Is a fouryear course of study, offered free of charge. But, Heinz added, "you don't earn any money for the first two years. Maybe the teacher gives you fifty cents a week for spending money. The third year, you get some money, but by the fourth year you get good wagea because you are belping the cabinetmakei' In his
business."
Exam After the four-year apprenticeship, the apprentice must pasa an examination before he receives his license. The examination for the cabinetmaking trade Is of a practical nature. First, the apprentice cabinetmaker must go to a "strange shop" - one with which he Is unfamiliar and there construct a given item In a certain amount of time. He Is judged on his stance, manner of working and the flnlsbed product. After this, he builds a piece of furniture of his own choosing In familiar surroundings. ThIs piece, called a "Gesellenstueck," is then displayed along with the work of other apprentice cabinetmakers. Heinz' "Gesellenstueck" was a black-walnut, diplomat writing desk. In Germany there are two fields of cabinetmaking. One kind.Is limited to such things as doors and window sills; the other deals with furniture. Heinz Is licensed In both areas. Mrs. Zickler pointed to a small end-table In the basement: "When we first came to New Ulm we had no furniture; that was the first piece Heinz built." Leaving, we asked Mrs. Zickler if she ever helps her husband with his hobby. She replied .that she sometimes helped with the sanding, "just the big pieces." Heinz added with a twinkle In his eyes, "She likes to help, but sometimes I don't like it"

Lancers Shake Faith In Initial Encounter On Wednesday, November 24, Luther travelled to Ankeke, Iowa, to play against Faith College. This was the first time that the Lancers had played against this school. Taking an early lead and dominating play throughout the entire game, the Lancers defeated Faith, 88-70. The Lancers were led by the shooting of Kurt Schmidt, who hit 10 out of 12 from the floor. Faith attempted several times to catch up, but too many floor mistakes and the fact that they were out-rebounded held them from becoming any real threat. Coach Dallmann made use of his reserves throughout the second half. This helped keep

me Luther score down, as the younger team members showed a lack of finesse a t times. However, Luther's dominance of the game was evident even when the reserves were In. Luther shot 44 per cent from the floor and also showed strong rebounding. Paul Hartwig led scoring with 29 points and 23 rebounds. Schmidt contributed 20 points to the team effort. 'lbe Lancers will meet Faith in a rematch game later in the season. Alumni Lose The alumni basketball team met defeat at the hand of the Lancers November 21. The flnal tally, 73-68, reported In the last issue of the MESSENGER, does not reflect the closeness of the game. At the end of the first half, the alumni team was leading by two points. The teams each had 15 field goals, but the alumni had a
much better percentage. The difference In scoring came In the area of fouls. The Lancers gave the altunni 18 free shots, while they only got 14. Both teams hit half of their foul shots. Factors contributing toward the early alumni lead were the number of turnovers and steals that hampered the Lancers In the first half. The second half told a different story. Of the Lancers' 41 second-half points, 21 were freeshots on alumni fouls. The Lancers had only six team fouls the second half, from which the alumni benefited only three points. The alumni had 13 field goals to the Lancers' 10, but this advantage was wiped out by the Lancers' gift-line shooting. The high scorer in the game was Jack Gronholz. Gronholz scored 27 points-over twice as many as any of hls teammates. The scoring attack for the Lancers was led by Paul Hartwi with 25 Ints gpo.

Since organ instruction fonns a major part of the schedule of many DMLC students, the installation of the Memorial Organ in the DMLCAuditorium has become a common subject of discussion on campus. Casavant Freres, Ltee., a Canadian organ building firm, is installing it to be dedicated on March 21, 1971. Withthe sudden death of Emil D. Backer, then head of the DMLC music department, in 1957, the idea of a memorial organ was begun and an organ fund started. Part of the Fiftieth Anniversary offering of the Minnesota District was given to the organ fund. Cloir tours have also provided some money for the organ.

The Joys of Teaching take a lot of frustration before the teacher finally gets the results he hoped for, but the feeling of accomplishment that comes from teaching is well worth all the patience and work. Finally, teaching can be such a rewarding profession because each teacher can be original. Although many other profesSions have little need for imagination or originality. these are very important aspects of teaching. A teacher can use his imagination in many different ways. It may be that he has to find a new approach in teaching a difficult subject to his students. A teacher may need imagination to think of a way to help a problem student. Without imagination and originality it is difficult for a teacher to have a very interesting art class. All of these ways and many more are places for a teacher to be original. If by using his imagination and originality he makes his class more interested in school in general, this interest will be rewarding for him. Because there are so many rewards in teaching, a truly dedicated teacher has no reason to end up completely frustrated. Peggy Raabe

Luther Defense Shines in Win On the strength of a strong second half, the Lancers defeated St. Paul Bible College, 8U2, at Mayer Lutheran High School, on January 11. The Lancers outscored st. Paul In the second half, 48-30. The fIiost half was a close, hard-fought battle, with neither team ever taking a commanding lead. st. Paul was fired up throughout the entire half, and as a result, Luther had to play a much harder game than they expected to play. Heavy fouling marked the half, together with many floor mistakes and turnovers. The Lancers led at halftime, 34-32. Paul Hartwig led all scoring at halftime with 18 points. The Lancers, apparently Inspired during halftime by a
Lancer Five Crushes Faith In Repeat Win DMLC, completely dominating play throughout the entire game, trampled Faith College, of Ankikee, Iowa, 97-73, on SatW'day evening, January 9,at the LMU gym. This was the first game the Lancers played since returning from the Christmas break. The game started out slowly with neither team able to shoot consistently. In the opening minutes, the Lancers showed signs of their long rest, making several floor mistakes. Halfway' through the first half, however, Luther began to "gel" and soon pulled away from Faith, taking a commanding lead Into the dressing room at halftime. Faith attempted to come back early In the second half, but excellent defense work by Kurt Schmidt, and the balanced shooting by the entire team, was too much for the Faith team. Luther steadily pulled away and was soon far ahead of Its opponents. Coach Dallmann made liberal use mhls reserves throughout the final five minutes. Excitement mounted Inthe final minutes, as the large turnout of fans began to anticipate a 100-polnt game. However, the Lancers could only manage to reach 97 points when the final buzzer solBlded. The balanced scoring of the team was evident In listing the final statistics. Reggie Riesop led scoring with 17' points, followedby Paul HartwIg, Mark Bootz and Kurt Schmidt with 16, 15"and 14, respectively. Unique Element There was a unique element In the preliminary game held before the Luther-Faith game. st. Phillip's Lutheran School m Milwaukee met New Ulm st. Paul's In a basketball contest. Both teams, playing well before a large crowd, were fine examples of grade-school basketball teams. In a hardfought game, St. Phillip's defeated St. Paul's, 35-22. st. Phillip's, a WELS ChrIstian Day school In Milwaukee, also played another game the following afternoon. The students and their chaperones' were guests of various faculty members and their famllies and m students In the various dorms on campus. This was the first time that this team played here In New Ulm.
peptalk from Coach Dallmann, came storming back to completely dominate play. Making use of good rebounding and good, well-dlstributed shooting, the Lancers were never In any serious troubles after the first four minutes. Reserves played out the end of the game. The heavy fouling continued In the second half. At the end of the game, Luther was assessed 22 infractions and St. Paul, 28. Paul Hartwig led In the scoring column with 21 points, followed by Kurt Schmidt with 13. Reggie Riesop, playing a brilliant game, led rebounding with 12, and also was credited with three blocked shots and causing 12 turnovers. Riesop was voted "Defensive Man of the Game" by his coach and teammates. Although victorious, Luther suffered a serious blow. Paul Hartwig, while fighting for a rebound, was hit In the mouth, possibly causing him to lose several teeth and several weeks of action. Another serious blow to the Lancers is the loss of Jim "Pots" Bauer, who dislocated his shoulder during a physical education class.

Students Flip Over Each Other If one walks Into the wrestling room In the Luther Memorial Union some Tuesday or Thursday evening around 7:30 p.m., one may be surprised to see several dozen young people In long, white, belted robes throwing themselves down on mats, bumping their shoulders against the wall, or attempting to trip and knock each other down. What may seem even stranger is that these people seem to be enjoying every moment of this type of sadistic play. Puzzling? It shouldn't be. What Is going on is one of the biweekly meetings of the DMLC Judo Club. This is the second year of existence for the Judo Club. It began last year when many students indicated, through means of a survey, that they would be Interested In taking judo instructions. As a result, several Instructors from the
local New Ulm area were contacted for lessons. As the year progressed and students began to Improve, the club began entering Itself In several tournaments In this vicillity. The first ye!!l' of existence fo:the club was deemed a' total
success.

TIIE PERILS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Sometime, if you're feeling depressed and would like a "pick-me-up" that won't get you Into any kind of trouble, just come down to Centennial gym, and watch one of the junior classes teaching physical education In the elementary urriculum class, better known lIS "Kiddie Games." This is that class that every college student looks forward to. It Is In this class that every student is allowed to act as a child, while one of his fellow-classmates teaches him some important sport skill. What makes the class unique is that somehow, the rather uncoordinated, very non-sports girls receive assignments such as teaching II 1-3-1zone defense or a forward flip, while the allaround athlete-type guy receives such swarthy assignments as teaching "Airede-Ballet" or marching to the "Nutcracker Suite." What makes the class so
1111I1II
funny are little things that somehow manage to happen In each class, such as: The girl just-a-little-tooplump to go all the way over on a forward flip and usually ends up on her side. The rotund fellow who gets stuck going under a bench In the obstacle race. ,The embarrassed athlete who somehow just can't manage to march In doubletime but Is always tripping over his feet. ' The girl who sprained her ankle while teaching her "class" how to jump correctly. The frl~htened girl who, while teaching the lay-up, kept calling the basketball a volleyball. The teacher who through this entire class period must somehow attempt to keep a straight face. Indeed, there'll never be another class qulte like "Kiddie Games."

Because of Its initial success it was decided to contihue activities of the Judo Club again this year. This year two' Luther students, Cary Haakenson and Lowell PrIckett, are serving as Instructors for the club. Prof. Marvin Meihack Is serving as the club's advisor. Both Haakenson and Prickett have had past experience In judo. Both participated In several m last year's tournaments. They
hope to teach enough stuiients the basic movements so that the club may once again participate In tournaments this year. The meetings are coeducational, girls'.. outnumbering the men 3 to 1. A typical meeting conslats of warm-ups ,where the students hurl themselves at padded walls and on mats. This helps to 11mber them up and prepare them for the upcoming competition. After the warm-up, the students then review old "holds" and movements, and then learn a new "hold." Time permitting, the students then put their knowledge of judo to use by competing among themselves.

By NED GOEDE Although "Mother Nature" tried her hardest to discourage it by withholding snow, the 1971 DMLC Snow Carnival proved a success. The event, running from February 24 to 27, was sponsored by the Collegiate Council. Snow Carnival plans were started last November when Sandy Boettcher and Ned Goede volunteered to serve as eochairmen. The first steps taken were planning events and setting up various committees. The chairmen decided that this year's events should take place on four days rather than the usual six days. In this way, the schedule would be more compact; each night would have one special event. Theme Chosen The next matter to be taken up was choosing an overall theme for the carnival. From recommendations of the theme committee. headed by Karen Hasley, the council selecied "Broadway Showcase" as the theme. Once a theme was chosen, the various committees began work. The .publicity-decorations committee, with Joy Grobe serving as chairman, planned posters for downtownstores and campus bulletin boards. Carl Nolte, heading the rules committee, set up rules for the skits and sculptures. Jackie Hall and Doug Klitzke began plans for the Entertainment Night. Jean, Moldenhauer and Shari Plaumann initiated plans for the Snow Queen Competition. Other committees were food, beaded by Kathy Pederson and athletic activities, with Bill Mashke serving as chairman. During January and
February the "Kids," a group of DMLC students engaged in singing and choreography, practiced every night. Later on, the Snow Queen candidates began planning their competition. As a result, all systems were "go" when February :M finally appeared on the calendar. Skit Night First event on .the Snow Carnival calendar was the annual Skit Night. John Bauer served as master-of-ceremonies to about 800 people. From the freshman class "dancing midgets" to the junior's unforgettable "Schwester Sue and Mothe}"Superior," the various classes kept the audience laughing and sometimes cheering throughout the entire evening. Highlighting the evening was
the competition between queen candidates Lois Brick, Jackie Hall, Naomi Knlckelbein, Kathy Mantey, Debbie Nitz, Kris Schuetze and Paula Wilbrecht. An innovation was the use of lighting during the talent segment of the competition. As in previous years, the candidates were judged on the basis of talent, extemporaneouS questioning and a group performance. Thursday evening saw several events. The annual skating and tobaggoning party was held at Hermann Park. For the athletically inclined, the Lancerettes were in action against Gustavus Adolphus. After this game, a pep fest was held in the LMU gymnasium. Among the acts featured at the pep fest were the Lancer Pep Continued on Page 4

Mt. Marty Edges Luther Luther finished its season DY hosting the Lancers of Mt. Marty College of Yankton, S.D. on February 26, before a large' Snowcamlval crowd. In a hardfought game, Mt. Marty ouUasted the Lancers and drove home with a 9s.81 victory. The loss left the lancers with a season record of ~10. Thegame~out~cldy with both teams pressing and shooting well. Neither team took a large lead throughout the entire first half. At one point, Mt. Marty led by a 17-8margin, but Luther fought back and tied the score at 22-22. Paul HartwIg kept the Lancers in the game with clutch shooting, while Kurt Schmidt and Mark Bootz helped to contain the aggressive Mt. Marty offense. At half-tlme,
Luther trailed 5O-4S. The second half was similar to the first half for the first is minutes. Luther again fought back to come within two points several times, but never could quite manage to go ahead. Reg Rlesop began a spree of hoi shooting, which helped to keep the Lancer attack rolling. However, Mt. Marty began taking advantage of several floor mistakes and capitalized on a period of cold shooting by Luther to amass a l~oint lead. From this point on, it was catchup ball for Luther. When It became obvious that the victory was virtually hopeless, .Coach Dallmann made use of his reserves. Although the Lancers were defeated, the Luther fans Rave their team a standing

ovation at the end of the game. Luther thus ended its season with a ~10 overall record. However, in conference action, the Lancers compiled a &-2 record, good enough for the conference a-championship. With every starter returning next year, the prospects for next year's team are promising. Paul Hartwig and Kurt Schmidt took top scoring honors with fourteen points each. .

As with every teaching experience, these lessons are also a learning experience for the instructors. Although Mike had never played the French horn before, he isnow teaching it and learlng how to play it at the same time. CamIlle remarked that these lessons make the teachers practice, too, so that they can play the students' material correctly. What could better impress his pupils than the teacher giving an example . of a piece: "It goes like this" and then - playing it wrong "No, it doesn't go like that." After one such incident, the teacher recognizes that he had better literally prilctlce what he preaches.
voiced for dedication services Sunday, April 18.The campus choirs will participate in the dedication. The. Memorial Organ is designed to meet the needs of the DMLCstudent body. This includes chapel services,' recitals, concerts with campus organizations, lessons and practices.
Alongwith all the frustrations of these lessons, there are, however, just as many rewards. All of these teachers agreed that seeing the students' enthusiasm and improvement well compensates for all the WorK and problems. One of Mike's beginners was so eager to learn that he came for a lesson three times in one week instead of the scheduled one time. What could be more rewarding for the teacher than receiving such enthusiasm, or hearing a student finally reaching a certain high note that he has been trying for for weeks;' or seeing the students that he has been working with performing before a group of people in a concert? Whether or not the clarinets, saxophones, trombones, and other Instruments in St. Paul's school band play the right notes depends on several band members, one director, and six DMLC students, who all declare that their job is really "a lot of fun."

The significant role of the Memorial Organ in the realm of activities at Dr. Martin Luther College lias' jilsf begun. Those who have attended chapel services and.concerts at DMLC will acknowledge the prominent part the pipe organ has played in accompanying congregational singing in training young people in the art of congregational accompaniment, and in the presentation of choral and instrumental music. With the dedication of the Memorial Organ years of planning, developing, and work have climasedto only further these functions of the orgah' as a more' dynamic element of the campus community. TIlE WJRSCHING ORGAN The' predecessor to 1:1e instrument dedicated on April 18 served in this· capacity from 1914until 1968;and particularly in the Academic Cener (Administration Building) from 1929until 1968,Professor Fritz Reuter, the first fulltime music professor at DMLC, was instrumentalln the acquisition of this pipe organ. It. was fabricated by the Wirsching Organ. Company of Ohio and purchased by the college for about $14,000. The instrument was placed into the present Practice Hall in 1914. (At that time the Practice Hall was a chapel with a seating capacity of aout 300, plus ten practice rooms.) When the" Administration Building was constructed in 1929, the Wirsching Organ was moved into the large new auditorium where it occupied a central position on the ~e. The new placement'Of

April 18,1971marked another milestone in the history of Dr. Martin Luther College. At a 4:00 service 00 this date the rite of dedication for the Memorial Organ was read by the Rev.' Otto Engel, Chairman of the Board of Control for DMLC. Other officiants at the service were the Rev. Conrad Frey, DMLC President, the Rev. Professor Oscar Siegler, President Martin Luther Academy, and the Rev. Professor Roland Hoenecke, DMLC. the Rev. Professor Martin Albrecht, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, Mequon, Wisconsin read the sermon. Professor Albrecht was head of the DMLC music department prior to his call to the Seminary. Opening with the strains of D. Buxtehude, Professor Bruce Backer, son of the late Professor Emil D. Backer. to whom the organ is a memorial, acted as dedicatory organist.

this organ, together with eertain modifications was accomplished by Mr. Ernst C. Vogelpohl, a well-known organ builder of New Ulm. By the mid-century daily use of this instrument over a period of almost forty years began to have it telling effects. No plans for replacement were made however to replace this organ. But with the death of Professor Emil D. Backer on August 18, 1957,the faculty of Dr. Martin Luther College established the Memorial Organ Fund. Professor Roland Hoenecke, manager of the DMLC choir Wider Prof. Backer, became treasurer: Under his efforts and direction the Memorial Organ Fund developed a solid base of $25,000.But the original goal of $35,000could not be maintained. The inflationary trend caused the price of pipe organs to double' during the 60's. Continuing encouragement from various sources, including the Alumni and Friends of DMLC, almost completed the inflated goal of $70,000. In 1959the Board of Control had appointed a Memorial Organ Committee. This committee, under the leadership of the OIainnari of the Music Division, worked with the Building Planning Committee and with the Consultant Professor Dr. Paul G. Bunjes to prepare the design and layout of the new instrument. In 1969the Board of Control decided to move toward completion of the project. In November of that year, a contract was signed with the Casavant Organ Company of St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada. Fabrication of
the instrument was completed during the summer months of 1970,and the Memorial Organ was delivered on February 13, 1971.At the time of dedication about $3,000 was lacking to complete payment of the instrument.

Chamber Music Makes Festival Grand Finale A concert of organ and chamber music was presented by the faculty and students of Dr. Martin Luther College and Martin Luther Academy on Wednesday April 28, 1971at 8:00 p.m. in the college auditorium. The program was a featured part of the dedication festival for the Memorial Organ. Opening with a work by George Phillip Telemann, Mr. George Traucht, MLA instructor, and Miss Judith Kresnika, a member of the DMLC music department, played the trumpet and organ respectively to present "La Grace," "Grave," "La Valillance," "Dolce," and "La Tranquillite." "Decorations" by John Ireland, which included "The Island Spell, "MoonGlade," and "The Scarlet Ceremonies," was presented by pianist Max Radloff. Lynn Carter on the cello and pianist Radloff then presented two "Pastorales" by Martinu. A brass quintet composed of Mr. Traucht, Rodney Bauer, Ruth Seeger, Joel Buege, and Mr. Roger Hermanson offered selections of 16th Century Carrnina and a sonata from Die Bankelsangerlieder. Mezzo Soprano Mrs. Alan
Just dynamically graced the program with "Hear My Prayer, 0 Lord," by Dvorak and "Kennst du das Land" by Beethoven. Also featured in the evening concert were the strings of the classical guitar as played by James W. Corona. Mr. Corona presented numbers by Fernando Sor and Lecuona along with a selection entitled "Notturno Opul, No.7". A French horn quartet consisting of Paula Hanneman, James Buege, Joanne Kallies, and Elizabeth Fuhrmann picturesquely portrayed "Nocturno" (from a Midsummer Night's Dream) by Mendelssohn. A piece by Mozart entitled "Andante, Opus 86" was recreated by flute and harpsichord. Marie Miller and Cynthia Reuchel performed on these instruments respectively. The program closed with a selection written by Normand Lockwood, "Concerto for Organ and Basses." This musical composmon was played by George Traucht and Stephen Schafer, trumpets; Joel Buege and Michael Brodbeck trombones; and OIarles Luedtke organ.
r°We"!!';!d:'~:k"':ction of Professor Meilahn Zahn, was· accompanied on the Memorial Organ by Carl Nolte a!ld Professor Otto Schenk With OIristine Troge on the timpani. Solo selections of the Requiem were sung by Mrs. Sharon J~ and Reynold Kremer. Organist for the pr~ude and offeratory was ~ernut Moldenhauer. Basically, there are ~woparis to the Requiem. The first deals with earthly suffering, lamentation, and mourning. The second part, consisting of four movements, deals with pious faith consolation and joy in the living God, and triumphant resurrection. The Requiem was a part of the dedication festival for the Memorial Organ. The collection taken during the service was placed into this organ fund.
"High Hopes" To Highlight Mother's Day As has been customary in past years, the DMLC Aeolians and Marluts and the MLA band will again present a Mother's Day concert. This year, however, the concert is taking 00 a new twist. It will be an appeal to children, and will hopefully draw many youngsters from area schools. Numbers will Include "Younger Generation," about a child singing to !tis parents reminding them that they were young once, too: "Hlgh Hopes"; Charlie Brown's "Happiness Is"; ''This Old Man"; and a Disney theme by the band. May 9 will be more than Mother's Day for the Aeolians, Marluts, and Academy band. In their f?,mily concert, they will ,reach C,ut to all.

I ShOU1Q'Ve suspected something as soon as Mr. Willems put her name on the board, "This," he said, "is the name of the practice teacher that's coming in three weeks," Bobby whispered across the aisle that Hasley rhymes with paisley, and what was a practice teacher? I said I didn't know but anything was worth a try once, Mr. Willems said, "Boys," to us, which is his way of saying be quiet. "Miss Hasley," he went on, "is a student at Dr, Martin Luther College in Minnesota. ~e's learning to be a teacher and will be coming here. to Kewaunee to learn from us." Debbie raised her hand and asked when she was coming; when Mr. Willems said, "February 5," we all looked at the calendar. Eighteen days. When she finally came, it was kind of disappointing. There she was, sitting at the back of the room, looking normal. Except she smiled a lot. Boy, could she smile! "Hey," said Christian, "Do all practice teacbers smile so much?" We all laughed, but later on I began to wish she'd smile more and talk less. . --The first thing Miss Hasley ever taught was handwriting small z - and she made it wrong. Nobody wanted to say anything but finally I raised my hand and asked if we should do it the way she had it on the board or the right way? At that, she looked kind of funny and told us to look at the signs over the side chalkboard. When we looked back at her the z was correct. One thing about Miss Hasley, she sure could write fast. After that she kept teaching more stuff, until we started making bets on who was going to teach next. I lost my scarecrow hat and two Doug Hart football cards on a science lesson, but Brian had to give me a good radio battery and two steelies, so it came out okay. We could get used to Miss Hasley, but we never could quite get used to this other man who'd come every now and then. He'd sit way in the back of the room while Miss Hasley was teaching and write. Donny said it was her probation officer, but I said, No, only ex-convicts have probation officers and Miss Hasley sure wasn't an ex-con, although maybe she sometimes acted like a warden. Donny looked doubtful, and said that it was the innocent looking ones that usually did the worst crimes, and not to get caught downstairs in the lunchroom alone with her, maybe she was an ex-murderer or something The only reason he said that was because he'd just read about Lizzie Borden and thought It was cool. Anyway, no one ever did solve the mystery behind that guy, and no one ever thought to ask. I'd say we were having too much fun imagining what he must be, and we didn't want the truth to spoil it all. Sometimes things work out like that. • I never liked singing class
much. I didn't hate it, like some I could name, but I didn't like it neither. Just kind of a There it is, what you gonna do about it? feeling; but the day Miss Hasley gave Christian the triangle changed my mind for life. In every song, Miss Hasley said, there are two things - beat and rhythm, and she told us the difference. So we practiced clapping for a while and then we used rhythm sticks. Finally she made the big move to the rhythm instruments box. and got out the triangle. "Now Christian," she said, "You're going to be the only one beating out the beat. Do you understand?" Christian nodded, taking his responsibility very seriously He's some guy, "I'll clap along with Christian to start him out and all the rest of you clap out the rhythm. Ready? Begin." It was soon clear that Christian wasn't ready for the triangle yet. Miss Hasley turned a little pale but she couldn't follow him either. It must have surprised ber to discover that there art, three things in every. song, beat, rhythm, and Christian on the triangle. Meanwhile, the whole sixth grade was laughing all over the place, all except Christian, who kept on hitting that triangle and frowning at his hands. Pretty soon everybody, even the fifth grade, was laughing and nobody could even hear the triangle any more. That was the day I started to like singing class; anything that funny can't be all bad, Then there was science class. Nobody blamed Miss Hasley for being a dud in science, but I think she thought so because she kept apologizing to us. I figured, so what if she got lunar and solar eclipses mixed up and tilted the earth the wrong way on its axis, and really didn't know why day is day and not night. I mean, nobody's perfect. Anyway, David knew all that stuff, being a real whiz in science, and he helped her out. He got seasons all straightened up, too. It's not the end of the world just because you have the seasons going backwards, right? That's what I tried to tell her, but she just erased what she had on the board and politely asked David if he'd like to try getting it right, and had someone caught her mistake she'd put on the board to fool everyone? It's not that Miss Hasley didn't admit her mistakes; it's just that it probably got a little boring after a while. And everyone needs a change of pace sometime. There was also the play. Sue asked her one day if she'd help us put on a play and she said, "Yes," so we did. It was The Wizard of Oz, and it sure took a lot of noon hours to practice. I had to stand behind a curtain and yell, "I am Oz, the great and terrible. Who are you and why do you seek me?" Finally, when I got to come out from behind the curtain, Todd, who was Toto, kept sniffing my feet and making faces at the audience. It was embarrassing. Continued on Page 4

In Recital Professor Ames Anderson of Dr. Martin Luther College presented the opening recital on the Memorial Organ. Held on April 25, 1971, the recital was the second public service using the newly dedicated instrument. As a part of his program, Professor Anderson performed the work of Ceasar Franck, "Chorale in E Major" as his opening number. He then featured four chorale Preludes by Johannes Brahms, "Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen," Herzlich tut mich verlangen," "0 Gott, du frommer Gott," and "0 Welt, ich muss dich lassen." A composition by Siegfried Reda, "Laudamus te" followed. Professor Anderson closed the recital with two musical selections written by Johann Sebastian Bach, The first, was four Chorale Preludes which included "Wachet auf, ruft, uns die Stimme," "Kommst du nun, Jesu, vom, Himmel herunter," 'In dir ist Freude" and "0 Mensch, bewein' d~in' Suende gross." His final Bach work was "Fantasy and Fugue in G Minor."
Mission Fair Focused on World "Efforts The Collegiate Council of Doctor Martin Luther College sponsored a mission fair on the Doctor Martin Luther College campus April Tl. This year's mission fair emphasized foreign missions. About a dozen displays were put up on the campus on Monday, April 26. The first session of the fair began at 9: 00 A.M. on Tues., Tl.Three or four bulletin boards were planned to depict" the mission theme. Pastor Hoyer, of Rochester, Minn., was one of the featured speakers. He told of his experiences as a missionary to the servicemen in Vietnam. Speaking also was President Conrad Frey who commented on his experiences at the Hong Kong mission. Missions in Japan and Hong Kong were also highlighted by narrated film strips, along with the mission to the Apaches and general missions. Preparation of the special materials for this mission fair was an all-class effort. In previous years a booklet on missions for the classroom has been prepared. The business of informing students of the Synod's mission activity is undertaken by the C.C. every year. The C.C. operates these fairs on a threeyear cycle so that every phase of mission activity will be covered. The three phases of this cycle are foreign missions, home missions, and Synod operation in general. Karen Hasley and Kermit Moldenhauer were the cochalrmen of the committee in charge of planning this year's mission fair. The C. C. is advised by Professor Arnold Koelpin.

Chorale Tours Area Churches
Travel was the word for DMLC's College Chorale during the Lenten season. Under the direction of Prof. Edward Meyer, every Wednesday night the choir performed at the Lenten services of a congregation in the New Ulm area. The cities visited were St. Peter, N. Mankato, Redwood Falls, Sleepy Eye, Fairfax, and Winthrop. The project began when a committee composed of choir members wrote to various congregations, asking their permission for the Chorale to come and spread its Gospel message among tbem. After only one refusal, compensated for by a request from a church not contacted, the choir set out to a warm reception from all congregations. Professor Meyer considered these visits an opportunity for Chorale members to become acquainted :w!th the .smaller area. congregations. According to him and various choir members, the program was a success for all concerned.

Pollution: A Big Problem Pollution. It's a big problem. But if everybody pitched in to fight the monster, pollution would appear as it really is w1nerable. It's .people who make pollution, and people can destroy it with some effort and concern. There are a number of things you can do, simple things you can do on your own, simple things which add up to a very significant blow against pollution. Here are a few examples of how you can fight one area of pollution - water pollution. If you smoke filter-tipped cigarettes, don't flush them down the toilet. The cellulose fibres in the filter defy destruction in the sewer. If you're a nut for color coordination in the bathroom, think white. It goes with almost any color scheme. The problem with colored bathroom tissue is that while the paper breaks down easily in water, the dyes go on and on. Use a soap product for laundry instead of a detergent. Detergents contain phosphates which boost the grow-power of algae in lakes and streams. It's algae overgrowth which causes premature stagnation of our waters. The plus point in favor of
Soph's Figure Skating Fun
At five o'clock on April 2, two buses stopped in front of the Student Union and 89 ad---venturous Sophomores piled in. After a few minutes of choosing the best place to sit and "counting heads," the class trip began as the buses rumbled off campus and headed for the Twin Cities. Destination - the Ice Follies! Cost of the tickets for this spectacular event was reduced by the class treasury and the remaining $2.50 was paid by the individual. Some of the various comments about this trip were "Peggy Fleming was really great," "The lighting and costumes made the whole show," and "It was a lot different than I thought it would be!" No matter what favorite part of the Ice Follies each individual member chose, the reaction of the whole class was that it was a spectacular event and one they would all enjoy viewing again.
detergents is that they work better than plain soap in hard water, but that's one problem easily overcome. Use a combination of soap and washing soda to do your laundry. The soda is a very effective water softener and cleaning booster. Here's the formula for a phosphate-free wash: Add 1-3 cup washing soda while machine is filling. When the soda is completely dissolved, add clothes and for a normal 8pound load in front-loader, 1cup of soap product. Add 1". cups soap for a top-loader. Use less with smaller loads. If water is hard, stop machine when it
Ecology Heads DMLC Lyceum Dr. John J. A.McLaughlin, an Oceanologist-Ecologist, will be on D.M.L.C.'s campus on April 21-22, 1971 as a Danforth Visiting Lecturer. The visiting lecturers program under which Dr. McLaughlin comes here was initiated by the Arts Program of the Association of American Colleges, and is supported by a grant from the Danforth Foundation; in their efforts "to strengthen liberal education," this program makes it possible for outstanding intellectuals from this country and abroad to lecture on college and university campuses. Dr. McLaughlin will speak on "The Ecology of the Future," and he will also present material to two class meetings on "Contemporary Conservation: The Marine and Fresh Water Environment" and "Productivity in Aquatic Systems." The personal achievements of Dr. McLaughiin are almost too numerous to mention; besides serving as a professor and lecturer for various science and conservation institutes, he has been the recipient of important research and facilities grants made by the U.S. Public Health Service and the National Science Foundation; he served as Senior Scientist of the Indian Ocean Expedition in 1963-M;he is on the Board of Directors of the New York Ocean Science Laboratories, and he is the author of over 55publications in Marine Phytoplanktology and Ecology. The hobbies which Dr. McLaughlin pursues in his "spare time" include fishing and traveling.

reaches the first rinse cycle and add'!. cup washing soda to the first rinse. It's important to remember that the soda used in laundry is washing soda, not baking soda. A number of people who have decided to make the switch from detergents have been confusing the two products. Washing soda is found in the laundry- supply section of the supermarket, and comes in a blue box. Baking soda is in the baking supply section in a yellow box. Perhaps baking soda is a misnomer, because although people still use it for baking after more than a hundred years, it's a phosphate-free cleaner in its own right. The difference between washing soda and baking soda is that the later has gentle cleaning action, totally unsuitable for heavyduty work such as cleansing a dirty washload. Baking soda can substitute for almost any of your regular kitchen or bathroom cleaning aids. It's cheaper, too, and ii doesn't pollute. Allthese pointers shouldn't be forgotten. The fight against pollution must be a sustained effort.

"Coop" Continued from Page 2 Everything went okay, except that the Scarecrow fell down the steps twice and Dorothy kept giggling. My mom said she liked it but why did I. stand behind the curtain and did. I know my feet stuck out and why hadn't I polished my shoes? It was no use explaining to her that wizards never polish their shoes; sometimes grownups have no imagination at all. We had programs with everybody's name in it, which was neat, but the sign carrier didn't come and Aunt Em missed the first scene. Miss Hasley pulled the curtains and never looked at us once. She kept closing her eyes and moving her lips, like she was praying, and sometimes I think she forgot there was a play going on. After everything, having a practice teacher isn't so bad. 'Course you gotta be openminded about a lot of things and be ready to help her out and not get upset if she assigns too much or talks too fast or keeps saying, "Right; Good," every time somebody answers a question. After all, she's just a student teacher, and us students have to stick together.

Paul Mitra, Indians who are working to spread the Gospel throughout their country. ' Christianity first came to Mr. Mitra's family about 75 years ago, when his grandfather came into contact with a German ~onary in India. Hearing the Gospel message, his grandfather turned from his heathen Brahman-Hindu beliefs to the joy of ClIristianIty. He subordinated his prosperous medical practice to his preaching. When faced with serious opposition to his Christianity, he relinquished all 'his material possessions rather than give up his faith. Through his death, his opponents finally overcame him, but his strong faith encouraged his sons to continue his work. Mr. Mitra's uncle became a pastor, but his father preferred to work among the poor. He, too, endured many hardships, and at his death left the same legacy to his son that his father had left to him. As a result, Mr. Mitra also entered the preaching ministry. He at-

DMLC Title Hopes Fade As Season's End Nears The DMLC baseball team is presently ~ in regular season play. The Lancers have been busy, playing a heavy schedule of games this spring.¡ As the season is progressing, it appears that the Lancers are developing several new players on their roster, to a distinct advantage. Here is a swnmary of season games so far: Luther vs. Bethany On April 22, Luther defeated Bethany College, lU, in a slugfest that saw a total of 20 hits. Luther struck early, scoring six runs in the first, capitalizing on several walks and consecutive singles by Hartley Dus, Ebeling and Bill Grassell. It appeared as if Luther would walk away with the game. However, Bethany slowly crept back, scoring runs in four consecutive innings. The Lancers bounced back, adding three more runs in four innings, on runs scored by Mark Bootz, Clarence Jenkins, and Steve Strieter. Again Bethany slowly inched back to within "threatening distance." Luther clinched the game, however, in the eighth inning, scoring two runs. The game total now stood at lU and winning pitcher, Mike Kiecker, held the Vikings scoreless in the final inning to give Luther its first victory of the season. Luther vs. St. Paul Bible. On April 24, Luther travelled to St. Boniface to play the St. Pauletes in a conference matchUp. The Lancers outslugged the Warriors, and came home with an 11-3 victory. While Lancer hurlers Steve Thiesfeldt and Dean Wilde held St. Paul to six hits and scoreless the first five innings, Luther slowly built a commanding lead, scoring runs in each of the first seven innings. Clarence Jenkins led all Luther scorers with three hits in four times at bat. All other hits were fairly well spread among the players. Only sustained attacks by St. Paul were in the sixth and seventh innings when they scored two runs in home run and another one on an error. It was all that Thiesfeldt allowed, however, who, along with
Wilde, struck out twenty-one St. Paul players. The victory gave Luther a 2-1 record in regular season play. Luther vs. North Central On May 1st, DMLC traveled to Riverside to play North Central. Again, the Lancers came home victorious, 5-3, in a game much closer than the previous contest. The game proved to be a pitchers' duel between Lallies of North Central and Luther ace Dean Wilde. Neither allowed hits throughout the first four innings. However, North Central scored consecutive runs in the fifth and sixth innings, to take a 2-0 edge over Luther. At first, it appeared that this would be the margin needed for victory. Hartley Dus put Luther back in the game the next inning, belting a two-run home run that tied the score. The next inning the Lancers scored two more runs, making use of several errors by North Central, plus "key hits" by Del Schrupp and Dean Wilde. . Luther added one more run in the ninth inning when Dean Wilde drove home Dave Menges. The Lancers now held a 5-2lead going into the bottom of the ninth. St. Paul attempted a rally, scoring one run, but the Luther defense held out, and assured pitcher Wilde of a victory. Luther vs. Concordia Luther: next traveled to St. Paul on May 5th to play Concordia at Como Park. In a one sided affair, Concordia drubbed the Lancers, 10-0. The Lancer hitting attack, which had been so successful in previous games, could not click in this game. Concordia, on the otherr hand, took advantage of several "key hits" in the middle innings to take a commanding lead. Neither team scored in the first two innings, but Concordia exploded for four runs in the third inning. Luther could manage only three hits in the next three innings. Meanwhile, Concordia added one run in the fifth and five more in the sixth .. Going to the top of the seventh, Luther trailed 10-0.Because of the ten-run conference game of the season. Dean Wilde was

with the loss for
Luther vs. St. Paul Bible After losing to Manka to State's Junior Varsity, 10-1, in an exhibition game, the Lancers returned to action on May 12th in a home game and return match against St. Paul. As in previous games, Luther completely dominated play and crushed St. Paul, 12-1.Leading Luther was Mark Bootz, who collected four hits in four times at bat. Luther dominated play throughout the game, scoring in every inning except the second and fourth. Coaches Dallmann and Meihack made liberal use of their "second-stringers" after Luther 'took a large lead. The game was called in the seventh inning because of the conference ten-run lead ruling.
DMLC Baseball season in full swing...
Lancer Netmen Capture First Conference Title
The DMLC tennis team opened up season play with a home match against Pillsbury College. The netman took the match, overpowering the visitors, 8-2. In singles action. The Lancers won 5 games, including wins by number one man Ron Sieggreen, Paul Hartwig, Jim Buege, Kurt Troge, and Rick Meinel. Only casualty was Frank Tomczak, who was making his first appearance as a Luther player. In Luther vs. Pillsbury doubles action, Luther and The Lancers journeyed to Pillsbury split the games with Owatonna on May 15th to battle Sieggreen and Buege taking with Pillsbury College. In a their game, while Hartwig and close contest, Luther was Tomczak failed in their bid. downed by Pillsbury, 7-4.It was Luther appeared to have a another pitching duel between distinct advantage in serving Brandenburg of Pillsbury and and in backhand control in most freshman Steve Thiesfeldt of of the games played.

All scored wins in innings. However, Pillsbury singles, except Sieggreen, who continued its sudden "hot hitplayed sets before falling to ting" from the previous innings, Dorband, the Viking's number and scored three more runs, one man. In doubles action, the and walked away with the Lancers had little trouble with victory. Sieggreen-Buege winning 6-0, 61, and Tomczak-Hartwig winning, 6-2, 6-2. For their third match, the Lancers traveled to St. Paul to oppose host Concordia. In the third consecutive dual match, the netman dominated play entirely, and returned home with an 8-1 victory. Most matches were strongly controlled by Luther. Both doubles teams won, again, while the singles' men took all but one game. Improvement was ap-
parent among all the players, especially Hartwig and freshman Jim Buege. Luther next traveled to Minneapolis and played Bethel College. In a match completely a reverse of the three previous matches, the Lancers were routed by Bethel, 8-1. The competition proved to be too stiff for Luther, with only Paul Hartwig winning in his individual game. Tomczak remarked after the match, "It was the stiffest competition Luther will probably see all season." Luther next traveled to Owatonna to play Pillsbury in a return match on May 12th. It was very similar to the first meeting between the two teams, with Luther winning, 8-1.Again both doubles teams lost, and all singles games outside of Hartwig's were won. The match win gave Luther a 4-1 regular season record so far. On Saturday, May 15th, the , Luther~netman, won the first--ever Minnesota River Athletic Conference tennis championship on Luther's home courts. Final standings showed Luther in first with ten points followed by Pillsbury with eight, St. Paul Concordia with four, and North Central Bible with zero. Luther had finaltsts in all three categories in the tournament. The tournament worked on a double-elimination basic. Sieggreen won the number one singles title, coming from behind to defeat Steve Sorenson of Pillsbury. Paul Hartwig and Frank Tomczak won the doubles title, dominating play through most of the games. Jim Buege lost to Ron Groshel in the finals of the number two singles. The victory was the first tournament title won by a Luther net team.

The graduating class of 1971 bas decided tQ present the school with the gift of a Xerox Micro-Film Reader for the new library. Their selection was determined after considering a number of possibilities, such as library books, additional altar parchments, or a slide projector. Professor Sitz's recommendation of the microfilm reader helped to influence their final choice; he pointed out that this is "one of the most modern and handy things" that libraries should have-since the micro-film takes up less space, libraries can contain more materials than they would have room for otherwise. As it stands now though, the micro-Hlm reader is only a tentative choice as the company which manufactures these readers no longer makes the model which the senior class chose. Future decisions to be made concerning the purchase of the gift will depend on the reply from the company pertaining to the types of substitute models which they have 'n

BandFeted Banquet Style A time to reminisce and a time to look ahead are two phrases which aptly describe the 1971 DMLCBands Banquet. Members of the Concert Band Ensemble and the Symphonic Concert Band met at the Kaiserhoff in New Ulm for a steak dinner on Sunday night, May 30. After the dinner the band members were entertained with "within-thegroup" comments and activities. A booklet was prepared which highlighted some of the memorable moments the bands had during the past season. The banquet was planned by the Junior' members of the bands. The Junior members of the Band Executive Council were the Coordinating Committee. This included Wayne Wagner, Carol Mundt, Sue Remiss, Lois Brick, and Fred Nell. Of special help with the program was Marti Ratz.

When asked about his impressions of the new library, Prof. Sitz replied, "I have been looking forward to it for a long, long time and even though I will be unable to serve in it, I am very happy to see it being built." During his years as librarian, the library more than doubled Its volumes. Accessions today number about 26,000.

Faculty's Summer
Study, Work, Trips Planned The professors at DMLCplan to keep very busy this summer in a variety of ways. A survey revealed a number of interesting plans, trips, and further study. Canadians will be welcoming Professor Ralph Swantz as he searches for plant and insect specimens to add to the DMLC collection. On the agenda for President J'l'W .Is a visit to Colorado, ciilifornia: Oregon,' and WashingtOn to deliver an
Professor Writes First School Song at DMLC "Hail to our dear DMLC!" The strains of our school song will this year have continued to echo through the halls of DMLC, the gymnasium, and those of various other schools for forty years. How did this school song come to DMLC? Professor A. Wilbrecht, a native of New Ulm, decided to attend high school in the prep department at DMLC, whereas most of his school friends decided to become pastors, and thus attended Northwestern Prep. In getting acquainted with new faces, Prof. Wilbrecht joined musical forces with Mr. Martin Rauschke and Mr. Clarence Radl. A piano, clarinet, a[\d violin trio gave these enterprising students something to do with all their spare time. Prof. Wilbrecht wrote the words and music for a song which the trio used for
"the fun of it," as Prof. Wilbrecht termed it. In 1932, a year before Prof. Wilbrecht's graduation, the song was entered in a contest to choose a DMLC School Song. Before the vote, an opportunity to present the song to the student body offered a chance to let the students hear this song. Prof. Wilbrecht accompanied Mr. Rauschke and Mr. Radl with a piano, as the three presented their fun song. As you all know, it was accepted. A band arrangement was prepared; however, much of this has been lost. Some parts were rewritten by members of the band, and some parts simply have not survived. A trumpet fanfare had preceded the song, but this also was lost. The most. recent band arrangement was prepared by our Director of Bands,

CLASSMOTTO:"Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it." Col. 4:17 CLASSCOLORS: Green and Gold CLASSFLOWER: Yellow Rose
DEAR DR. M,UtTIN LUTHER COLLEGE, It is extremely difficult to believe that in only a few short days we will be receiving our graduation diplomas. Although this may seem like an anticlimax compared to call night, graduation day is truly that day for which we have been striving for four years. Four years may seem like a long time, but it is amazing how fast that time has passed. What has made that time go so fast was the enjoyment which we have all obtained from a healthy mixture of work and of play here at Dr. Martin Luther College. Our school offers a lot for those who put out just that little amount of effort to become involved. One need not participate in every activity out school offers. No, that for one thing would simply be an impossibility. However, a mere concern over what is happening on campus can draw one into a world of pleasure and out of those dangerous doldrums. A school needs its students, not only for studing but also tor play. Involvement is a term that also applies to the instruction of children. All of us have learned that teaching, especially in an elementary school, demands countless hours of working and loving and caring for your children. To each child you impart a piece of yourself. Some may demand more of you, some demand less. You, however, must be willing to give yourself to each child under your care. Each is a precious gift from God, and your grave responsibility is to preserve their souls, using the Holy Ghost as your Guide. Man truly is a frail means for performing this duty. But, God gave us this priviledge, and we should do our very best to fullfil it. Our words to you this day may be these: Become involved in your school and most of all in your future occupation. If you expect' to gain from them, you must first give yourself to them. The Senior Class
1971CLASS HYMN New work begins as we approach Our God-appointed paths, Westand inreadiness, dear Lord, To do what You will ask. Dear Jesus, Savior, Be our Stay And bless our work from day to day. Entrusted to our daily care The precious lambs of.God. We feed their souls with Living Food And tell of Your great love. Dear Jesus, come, be with US still; Each hungry soul help us to fill. The Living Word may sometimes fall On hard and barren ground. It may show only signs of life, Or, lasting fruits abound, Dear Lord, teach us to trust in you; Help us begin each day anew. Be our eternal Light and Truth, Our Way when steps may stray', Your guiding hand be always near, Protect us, Lord, we pray. Steadfast we cling to Thee, dear Friend; Help keep us faithful to the end. "Peace be with you," our Jesus says, "Fear not, for I am near, Trust in My Word and it shall be Your firm foundation here, As I was sent without delay, So also send I you today." (1971) Words: Karen Brailing Melody: Kerinit Moldenhauer

The DMLC baseball team closed out its season with a 9-5 loss at the hands of Concordia CollegeofSt. Paul on the Luther athletic field on May 22nd. It was a game in which the powerful hitting of the Comets nroved to be too much for the young Luther hurlers Thiessfeld and Kieker. Luther scored in the first inning when Mark Bootz, on third base after being walked and advancing on Clarence Jenkins' singles, was forced home on another walk. However, after this, Luther failed to score until the seventh inning. Concordia, meantime, "keyed off" Thiessfeld and scored seven runs in the next
seven innings. Their players all appeared to be having "ondays" at the plate, as all were hitting sounder off of Thiessfeld. In the seventn mrung, Luther scored four runs on hits by Dean Wilde, Hartley Dus, and Jenkins. Included among these hits was a home run by Jenkins and a triple by Dus. However, the hitting for Luther ended here, while Concordia added two more to their total, and, consequently, the' Lancers were forced to 'end their season on a losing note. The win for Concordia gave the Comets the championship for the MRAC. Luther ended up third in the conference.
Time Out-

The end 01 me year marks that time when everyone reflects back on the past school year, sizing it up, and comparing it with other years. In reflecting back upon this past year's interscholastic teams' performances, one would have to swn it UP bv saying it was a fairly successful year, -a year where much rebuilding was done in preparation for future years. In soccer, Coach Dallmann and Gauger had three returning starters from the previous season. Thus, stress was placed on learning through experience. The season started slowly with the men losing three of their first four games. However, the Lancers then began to "click" as a team, winning three of' their last four games and tieing the other one. The season record ended with a 4-3-1mark. Coach Dallmann is looking forward to a successful season next year because most of his starting players will be returning. The basketball team also had an abundance of young players which Da11mann shaped into a strong team. The basketball team started the season out fast, winning several early games. Among these early season wins were several MRAC games, which enabled the team to win the cochampionship. As the season neared its end, Lancer competition became a little tougher, and the Lancers began to falter. Final season record stands as 9-10. Hopes
here should be high with Luther losing only one senior, Hartley Ous. In baseball, the Lancers had a belowaverage season, dropping below the .500 mark. It was a year of rebuilding in this sport :more than in any other. Among the positions of most urgent need was the pitching spot. In this capacity, several Luther freshman were worked and trained for upcoming seasons. As a result, with the new pitchers beginning to come around, along with the return of several key men next year's season looks to improve upon this year's. The two most successful teams on campus this year were the tennis and golf teams. The tennis team under Coach Kaiser, had its most successful season in its history, compiling a 7-1 record and winning the MRACtournament. Next year's prospects are just as bright, with five starters returning. The golf. team, under Coach Gauger, also was highly successful, winning five dual meets and placing quite high in several important tournaments. Once again, all but one senior will be returning. In looking back then, it is obvious that the season was one of rebuilding in almost every sport. Much hard work went into this program, on the part of both team members and coaches. I, for one, however, am one to look more to the future than the past. To me, the next year at Luther looks bright and full of promise in athletics.
