. Just a fewdays before they were to return to DMLC,about 140 senior women were informed that Centennial Hall was being closed due to a sudden decrease in enrollment. After becoming accustomed to the idea of livingin Centennial,these women had to resign themselves to living in HighlandHall,where many of them had lived as freshmen. The closing will save the college about $10,000, but less money is also coming in because of the low enrollment, which is about 630 students. CentennialHallhas housed senior women for the past fiveyears. Prior to that, Martin Luther Academy girls livedthere, and senior women were housed off-campus, Currently, no plans have been made to move the men into Centennial and close Summit Hall. Mias Haar and Dean Zarling appreciate the cooperation the senior women have shown in making this adjustment.

Another new face here on campus this year is not really new to DMLCat all. Having just graduated from here last spring, Mr. Wayne FoeJske now trades his place behind the desk for one in front of a classroom. He will be helping Professor Wandersee with the biology courses and will also teach a physiology class to senior science concentrates. WIlen asked to comment on the school year thus far he stated, "I'm really enjoying it here . . . I couldn't have asked for a better call. Ihave a good group of kids - that makes it fun." A newcomer to the Math-Science division at DMLC is Professor David Pelzl. He teaches the freshman mathematics course,
Introduction to Number Systems, and also a senior class, Math Methods. WIlen questioned how he likes DMLC, he remarked, "l'rn really enjoying the campus l' and thoroughly enjoying teaching college' students." Completingthe listof new additions to the faculty is IMrs. Marlene Wendler. She teaches third and fourth graders at St.Paul's school and also supervises student teachers in that room. She commented, "I have a good class and good student teachers. I'm looking forward to a good year." . We wish all of the new faculty members the Lord's richest blessings in the new school year!
Turkey drumsticks, candied apples, Shakespeare, Bowles, and Madrigals were all a part of the fun and frolic of the Renaissance Faire held on our campus Sunday, September 18. The festivities started at I:00 p.m. and continued until 7:00. Spectator); wandered among the trees and booths in Luther Hollow trying their hands at medieval games, There was a Human Chess Tournament, Jacob's Ladder, Kingof the Log, and everyone's favorite - Bowles. Entertainment abounded. Madrigals strolled about singing music typical of the Renaissance period. There was a reinactrnent of Shakespeare and a humorous Punch and Judy puppet show, both featuring our very own campus talent. Pro Musica performed with their Renaissance instruments and there were special Renaissance dances. The food was fit for a king.Turkey drumsticks, candied apples, munchkins, hot beef and sassafras were a few of the delicacies offered. A special thanks goes out to those who helped take our campus back in time for a unique day. . pictnres'on

WHEN I SAY MESSENGER, YOU SAY by Judy Delikat Editor in Chief Letter carrier. errand boy. runner. newspaper. mailman. carrier pigeon. Pony Express. courier. What do you think ofwhen you hear the word "messenger"? As this year begins.some of you may think of the first issue of this paper. I'm sure the Messenger staff would be very happy to hear that. Most people probably think of someone who carries a message. like the early messengers who carried news before mail service was started. Others may think of official state emissaries carrying messages back and forth between countries. . What else do you think of in connection with a messenger? Phrases like "run this across town for me." "be sure to tell them everything." or "put a rush on this" may come to mind.The old postman's motto "Neither snow. nor rain. nor heat. nor gloom of night. ." might also

There's no question that messengers are important. People count on them to be accurate and faithful. In my editorials this year I would like to take the word "messenger" apart and focus on the most important messenger of all:the messenger of the gospel. If all messengers are important. these are certainly the most important because their message can make the difference between life and death - spiritual life and death. Beginning next month. each issue of the paper will feature a diflerent letter of the word "messenger." Every letter stands for a word that will bring out some aspect of the work carried on by those all-importantmessengers of the gospel. We are Cod's messengers. sent into the whole world to do his work. Can't you almost hear his voice: "Run my message over to Colorado. Put a rush on it. too! And don't forget to tell·them everything."
thirteen they start smoking pot. Mr. Engelhart then went on to show how the media promotes alcohol use with slogans like"It's Millertime" and "Givethat man a blue ribbon." .Many correlations were made to the Wisconsin. The discussion started with Mr.Engelhart difficultiesteachers face in confronting the problem. Mr. Engelhart's main word of describing chemical dependency and advice on this issue was to challenge the making us aware of this problem. He then proceeded to give us some facts. fig_ures. child if the teacher noted that he was and false myths about drinking and drugs. slipping in his studies.

These rules 0(. student behavior were taken from a manuscript titled, "Statutes of King'sCollege in the CityofNew York," the former name of Columbia University. The rules or 'statutes, published in 1763, included these provisions: Everyone had to attend daily prayers as early as 5 AM. Students could not leave campus without permission, nor leave their rooms after 9 in the evening. 'A sfudent could be expelled if he were caught twice playing cards or dice. Parents had to post a bond upon their child's admission to-the College,in part "to make good all Damages that the said student shall willfully have been the Occasion of." A student could be fined 10shillings if he chose to "willfullyandpersonally affront the President of the College,"or ifhe "molested the President 'by making unreasonable noises.-"
And (lacking an invasion-of-privacy issue) the president of the college was authorized to visitany student's room at any time and, ifdenied entrance, break down the door. The rare manuscript containing these rules was first owned by John Jay, once a student at King's College. He graduated in 1764 and went on to become President of the Continental Congress, a noted American diplomat in Europe, the Governor of New York, and the nation's first Chief Justice.
'STUDENT SURVEY~¡~;,
ANEW
HYMNAL
by Jane Zimmerman Assistant Editor
DECISION FOR A NEW HYMNAL by Pete Schaewe Staff Writer
The delegates attending our synod's fortyseventh biennial convention
held here
at DMLC from August 1~5 made many decisions that may affect us as members of the Wisconsin Ev. Lutheran Synod. But one decision was made that willalmost certainly reach us as we prepare devotions for the classroom, assign memory work, and especially as we join in worship on Sunday mornings - the vote for the developmerit of a new hymnal for the WELS. Talk of a new hymnal has been going on for some time: and the Commission on Worship has been studying 'and doing preparatory work for several years. Questionnaires and Guidelines outlining the problem at hand ;"ere sent to all district conventions held last summer. In-depth studies were also done at many pastoral conventions held recently. Through such discussion, inquiry. and study the commission was convinced that our synod
needs a new hymnal, and it was found that a strong majority of our congregations agreed, Thus prompted, the convention took up the question. An open meeting was held to bring out both sides of the issue, stressing
the language barrier of our' present hymnal. Amongother things it was pointed out that a new hymnal could encourage mission work and also help simplifythe training of young people. Afterthree half-hour discussions the vote was called and was passed almost unanimously. What happens now? First of all a project coordinator will be called to oversee the development, which willbe funded through the budget and a special hymnal fund. .Hymns will be chosen, revisions done and perhaps polls willbe taken of congregations, questioning what should be included and excluded from the new hymnal. Periodic samples of work will be sent to congregations for trial and evaluation. But don't expect to see the new hymnals in the very near future. The Commission-on Worship is seeing to it that great care is
taken in the preparation of this project, and its goal is to have the book in production by 1990. We can be sure that the Lord will help guide the commission toward the production of a useful and spiritually edifying new hymnal,
. The decision of the WELSconvention to begin the development of a new hymnal has aroused mixed feelings throughout the' Synod. DMLCis no exceptlon.This month's Messenger survey of the student body asked the question, "How do you feel about the Synod convention's decision to print a new hymnal?" Of the approximately two hundred students who responded, fortyeight percent were happy about the decision. Thirty-seven percent were unhappy, and fifteen percent said it didn't matter to them. The reasons for the differing opinions were many. One of the objections stated most often was the great cost involved in switching to a new hymnal. Many students worried that not all congregations would be able to afford the hymnals and the Synod would be split. Many more felt that a new hymnal is not really necessary and the money, could be better used for mission work. But mission work was also an argument
used frequently in favor of the new hymnal. . A large number of students feel that a hymnal with modern language will better serve both children and adult converts. Quite a few other students 'commented that they feel enthusiastic about the new hymnal because they likethe NIVBibleand the new catechism so much, and the hymnal willgo well with them. There were several other arguments against the new hymnal, but for each one there was a counter-argument in favor of it T9 those who felt that the new hymnal would offend many Lutherans who are
attached to the old one, students' favoring the hymnal expressed the beliefthat people willget used to the new hymnal in time and like it. To those who felt that the switch would he too difficllitlor us to make came the reply that we should all be open-minded about making such a change. Some students seemed torn between the two viewpoints, such as the one who commented, "I guess 1'",too used to the hymnal we have now and Idon't warit to change. Ido realize that itwill help with mission work and I think that is very, important, so I'm being selfish in wanting the hymnal to stay the way it is." The biggest fear' expressed by all the students surveyed was that their best-loved traditional hymns would disappear. The students do not want to see their favorite hymns changed drastically, nor do they want¡ to lose four-part hymns or have a "hymnal like that of the LCMS."We have been told that -only those hymns which are rarely used willbe taken out of the hymnal, yei it seems that there is still a great deal of uncertainty in the student body. One student expressed the situation well by saying, "There is a need in our congregations to have the situation explained and discussed for a dearer understanding by everyone,"
Perhaps the best food for thought given was by the student who said that no matter which hymnal we use, "all our hymnal really is is a guide for our singing worship. That our songs center on God and the news of our salvation should be our main thought and idea in mind through all this."

Do you want to escape the confines of your dorm room, discover a lot of new friends,get in shape, and have fun at the same time? If you answered "yes" to any of the previous questions, the DMLCwomen's' intramural sports program may be for you. Intramurals offer a widevariety of athletic challenges throughout the course of the year. These include tennis. softball, volleyball, basketball, badminton, track and field, golf, and soccer (new this year). Outstanding individual and team enthusiasm keep the competition very exciting and enjoyable. A new feature this year will be a recognition board posted in the gym to acknowledge certain achievements made by teams or individuals. Softball and tennis action is now underway, with volleyball to follow in the second quarter. A two to three mile Fun Run , is also presently being planned to take place one weekend in September or October. Intramurals are a great way to improve your sports skills and enjoy yourself, so why.not give the program a try?

Coach Buck, a native of South Haven, Michigan,and a graduate of Olivet College, has spent the last several years teaching grades 5-12 P.E. and grades 9-12 math in Marshall,Minnesota. Although he has never coached volleyball before, Coach Buck is very optimistic about the season which lies ahead. "Wehave some promising, upcoming freshmen along with some experience which should ailow us to go out and win the conference championship again." We certainly hope the team can reach this goal!

Complementing the passing game is a fine group of receivers led by Jerry Zeamer and Rollin Tlmm, Other members of the receiving corps include Scott Antonetti, Glenn Davis, Greg Blrkbolz, Keith Kopczynski, and Steve Fritze. Up front are the big guys, opening the holes for the little guys and protecting the passers. They include: John Bllever-nleht, Jeff Roloff, Dan Lueck, Paul . Herrlan, and Steve Bremer. No footballteam can go very far without a good defense and the 1983Lancer defensive unit fits the bill. The defensive line and linebacking corps is a tightly knit, hustling bURChof marauders, who enjoy camping ¡out in theother guy's backfield, stacking up - -plays and causing fumbles. And if the other team .chooses the aerial route, the ballhaw~g Lancer defensive backs Willdo their best to'.short circuit the ball's flight. The defensive squad: linemen Dan Dettmann, Pete Kuske, Dwight Sanvold, Brent Schact,' and Jhit"'rtetz; linebackers John . Sebald and Kevin Kutz; and defensive backs John Melso, Jeff Dorn, Skip Noon, and Jim Brandt Rounding out the Lancer squad are Dave Domson, Dale Dyrssen, Scott Fritze, John Lillo, Frlan Maurice, John Meye~, Troy Pape, Dave Ring, Dave Rust, Guy Gast, Craig Zibrowsk!; and Jeff Zwick. There are only thirty-nine ofthem, not many in comparison to some of the teams they'll play; but they are a fine bunch of football players, fully capable of securing DMLC's first winning season. With your enthusiastic support and backing, you the fan, can help them make it so. Come on out and cheer (photo by Blair Schaper) them on!
KEEPING PACE WITH CROSS COUNIRY by Sheryl Rausch Sports Editar When .the Minnesota sun. beats down upon New Ulm, most of us have the tendency to look for the nearest fan to hide behind. However, eleven brave Lancerettes have decided not only to venture out into the heat, but to actually run in it. Returning from last year's cross country team. are: Judy Wetzel, Sherle AkrIght, Janice Kant, Denise Lange, Deb Roemhlldt, and Beth Krenke. The 1983team isrounded out by Sarah Peter, Becky Hohenstein, Sara ErlandllllOn, 8eckI Renner, and Clara SChultz.Jeanne Kurth is againthe manager. This' year's schedule includes seven meets (one of them a conference meet).
And as last year, there will be one home invitational.The home contest is scheduled for 12:00noon onHomecoming Saturday. When Janice Kant, who is coaching the team in place of Professor Boehlke while he is on a sabbatical, was asked what the strengths of the team would be, she replied, "It is really hard to tell at this point in the season, but we have a lot of experienced runners who have been with the program for years and are familiarwith many of the courses, Therefore, we are very optimisticof our chances." We certainly wish the' team the best of luck in their season!

COLOR GUARD
by Dick Goodall Sports Editor
Although the Lancers lost three starting golfers from. last year's squad, coaches Wulff and Raddatz are. looking forward to another fine'season. Gone are top golfers John Ueckert, Kevin Sonntag, and Jim Ross. The 1983 squad is dominated by sophomores including John Schlave~ky and Dan Markgraf but the Lancers have
high hopes for Don Kolander and Craig Rad,ue (the only seniors). Other members of the Lancer squad include John Bleden· bender, Phil Werth, Dave Kolander, Joel Burmeister, Dave Koepsell (all sophomores), and freshmen Karl Bauer and John Kaspar. Don Kolander and John Schlavensky.were elected as team captains.
by Sheryl Rausch Sports Editor . While some of the more prominent DMLC
athletic organizations bask in the limelightof the press and media, one group continually puts on talented performances without the public exposure. Time' and time again; Color Guard puts on a flawless routine or presents the flag at athletic games. Since Color C"uard's.job is primarily to promote school spirit, it is only fitting that it should receive some attention here.
The tryouts for th~ 1983squad were held on September I.The eleven people picked for this year's squad were: Marli Schaible, Rachel Borgwardt, Sharon Carl, Cindy. Henrickson, Beth Marli, Marlene Wittig, Kelly O'Connell, Amy Guenther, Karen Freudenwald, KathY Freudenwald, and Connie Kroll. Congratulations to these girls and best of luck to the 1983 Color Guard squad!

Representing DMLC at this year's conference were: Prof. Hartwig, Prof. Koestler, Prof. Yetter, Jason Muench, Lynn Polensky, Bob Rebers, Rachelle Ehlert, Becky Spaude, and Diane Fickau. The NobelConference. begun in 1965as a livingmemorial to Alfred Nobel. is the only conference of its kind throughout the world. bringing together Nobel laureates. notable scientists. theologians. professionals. teachers and students from' all over Minnesota, the U.S.and the world.Attending this year's conference was a twenty person delegation from the People's Republic of China. The Nobel Conference is a two-day conference which takes an in-depth look at recent controversiaJ scientific issues in the
form of lectures, debate, and question and answer. Thisyear's conference was entitled "Manipulating Life: Medical Advances and Human Responsibility." This year's topic. which encompassed
such issues as genetic engineering. gene splicing. cloning. in vitro fertilization. was approached in diverse manners by the six lecturers. The speakers did not concentrate ~~~~~~~~~~~pr'~cllesto expounded on parables. paradigms. and human compassion as well.

MISSION EDUCATION Judy Delikat Editor in Chief Haveyou ever thought about becoming a missionary? You may be sent to a place far from home. You may have to learn a new way of life- possibly a new language. Youwillmeet new people, have new experiences, and see a whole new meaning for life. Howwelldoes that paragraph describe your idea of a missionary? To most, a missionary is someone who goes over to Africaamong the natives and bush people to "civilize"them and . bring them God's Word. Sometimes we may think about our synod's home mission work going on here in the United States and in other English-speaking countries. These are not the only missionaries in the world, however. Anyone sent on a mission is a missionary.Does that mean that the ambassador to the MiddleEast is a missionary for peace? Yes.itdoes. Are those sent to the SovietUnionfor SALTtalks missionaries for arms reduction? Yes,they are. Eventhe littleboy who goes to the store to buy a gallonof milkfor his mother isa missionary because he was sent out to accomplish a mission. What about you? Are you a missionary? You bet you are! We all are. God put each of us in this world with a special purpose in mind. That mission might mean becoming a secretary, a doctor, or a fireman.Or it may have nothing to do with an occupation. Christians,for example, are put in the world to spread the kingdom of God in any way they can. For us at DMLC,the word missionary should mean a great deal. Our mission is education. We have been called to work directly in God's kingdom on earth. There are many ways for Christians to spread the gospel: personal evangelism, public preaching, leading a godly life. Every way is important, but teaching is one of the most important because teachers show others what they can do to spread God's Word. hi fact, God thinks Christian education is so important that he made teaching a ministrY in and of itself. It is not under the preaching' ministry, but works beside it, hand in hand, to bring the gospel message to the whole world. So,you're a missionary now.Actually,you always were. Youprobably never thought about it before. Think about it now - it will give a whole new meaning to your life.
DEAR DANA Dear Dana, I would like to reflect on the new wall carpeting that Summit Hall is receiving. What a keen and unique idea Iwould have been hard-pressed to come up with an idea halfas good. Red squares on the wall.What a helpful and money-conscious Idea Not only willthis shag wallpaper help cut d9Wllsound but it willallow for recreation. When we are sitting in our dorm rooms and can't hear anything, all we have to do is take our chairs OVtin the hall and watch as the long strands of polyester carpeting get blown likewheat in the wind. I'm so delighted that they spent money on this unique form of recreation rather than something stupid and worthless like heating oil. "Hey, whose turn is it to vacuum the 'walls today?"

Dear Dana. The time has arrived to congratulate the new color guard. These individuals provide an invaluable service to spectators and participants at our school's athletic events.

Cinderella was .originally written for television and first aired on March 31, 1957, with Julie Andrews__in the title role. The performance time of the show is somewhat shorter than most stage musicals, lasting only about an hour and a half,as opposed to the usual two and.a half to three hours. The story. line. follows the plot of the old children's classic, but adds just enough .Âť
Directing this year's musical is Keith Schroeder, Before coming to DMLC,Keith studied theater arts for two years at Carroll College. He has had extensive experience both onstage and backstage, performing and working on the technical aspects of theater work. Keith believes that use of the performing arts is a valuable tool for teachers, and he himself has directed and written material for children's theater groups. He hopes to use his knowledge and skill in this area to further the Lord's kingdom through his work as a Christian teacher. Cindy Lehman is producing Cinderella. She has worked on various crews for several DMLCproductions. and last spring she was co-producer of The Importance of Being Earnest. Although Cindyenjoys all aspects of her work. costuming is her special love, and in Cinderella she will have good opportunity to use her creative imagination in this department. Of being producer she says, "It can be draining.but Iwouldn't miss it. I love the contact - working with such a

The Symphonic Concert Band is the larger of the two. with approximately eighty- five persons. Membership is open to anybody willingto sacrifice a little time for-rehearsal. The Wind Ensemble is made up of about fifty members. who gain placement by audition. On October 13th a variety of numbers performed by these two groups provided an hour- long concert program - the first major musical performance of the school year. The Symphonic Concert Band started the concert with a traditional American march by Charfes Belsterlingentitled March of the Steel Men. Next came a selection lull of contrast. Emperata Overture by Claude T. Smith. followed by Flieger Marsch, a
German march by Hermann Dostal. This piece honored the tricentennial 01 the first German immigration to America. To finish
its half of the program. the Symphonic Band delved into The Blue and the Gray, a medley 01 tunes from the CivilWar era. written by Clare Grundman to observe the one-hundredth anniversary of the conflict.

THROUGH
CHILDREN'S
by Karen Lindeman Staff Writer Through the years we have come to know a great deal about one ofthe most important leaders of the Reformation, Dr, Martin Luther. fn our Christian day schools, the children are also taught about the founder of the Lutheran church. The question which is answered in this issue is, "What does Martin Luther mean to you?" .The following answers were given by the fourth grade children of Miss Becky Hafemelster of St. Lucas Ev. Lutheran School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Martin Luther was a great man. He made the What does this mean? part for all the commandments. He also wrote the Old and New Testament in German for the German people. . Rebecca Corona Age Ii Martin Luther said its free to go to heaven and not have to work for salvation. . Tony-Balfstrert Age 8 It means that Martin Luther is a follower of God arid we are too.

STUDENT SURVEY:
However, I couldn't agree with you more that the color guard probably provides a more worthwhile and patriotic service. Additionally,its members unfortunately do not receive the credit due them: it often seems that students give the "leftover" praise of the pompons to the color guard. Hopefullyyour letter and my comments will

OPEN DORMS by Jane Zimmerman Assistant Editor This month's Student Survey took up a controversial issue on the DMLCcampus: the open dorm policy. Currently open dorms are not allowed at any time, with exceptions only on a few 'special occasion' weekends during, the school year. When the 'students were asked how they felt about this policy, the number whd responded was overwhelming: over 50% of the student body. . The answers given by the men and the women were remarkably alike. Ninety percent of both the men and the women were in favor of more open dorms: six percent a! each were opposed to having them more often, and four percent were undecided. To the question of how often open dorms are desired, the most popular reply was "every weekend" among both the men (~'r,) and women (68'~.).However. twenty-four percent of the' women and fifteen percent of the men would prefer havingopen dorms just once a month ("plus on special occasions," suggested some). Onlya small number of people would liketo have open dorms every day. The next question asked the students was, "At what point would you consider open dorms an invasion of privacy?" Fifty-c. five percent of the women and forty-five percent of the men felt that having open dorms every day would be an invasion of privacy. Other answers varied. Quite a few would not want open dorms every weekend (about '2(),Y,,), and many specified that they would be opposed to having open dorms very early in the morning Or late at night. Twenty-one percent of the men and five percent of the women stated that open dorms would never be an invasion of privacy
ifthe times they are open are made clear to all. The students of DMLC stated many 'different reasons that they favor more open dorms, such as the fact that relatives and friends come 'to visit'on various weekends and students would like them to be able to go to their rooms (our "home" for nine . months every year), and that studying in groups with classmates would be easier. To keep .open dorms more quiet and WHEN THE BUFI:ALO controlled, a "check-in and have an escort" rule is favored bya large number of men and women. Several others leel that just by ROAMED havingopen dorms more often, so that they are more' commonplace,. they would be morecontrolled than they presently are. Yet AtFort Riley,Kansas, on October 25,1842, one woman stated, "It's nice to keep open dorms special," by not having them too the following orders were issued to the often. troops: One student expressed the feelings of "student officers will discontinue the many in the campus family when he said, practice of roping and ridingthe buffaloes.,. "Whatever the results of this are I'm sure The troop officer having the best jrained that a number of people induding myself . regiment of the year will be awarded one would liketo know the reason why we are or barrel of rye whiskey ... Members of this are not having open dorms in the future," A command, when shooting at-buffaloes on large number of those who commented on the parade ground, willbe careful not to fire this issue stated that they do not understand in the direction of the Company headthe situation as ,itstands now. quarters ... Attention to all officers is called I! is a matter which will be taken up to Par. 107,A.R., in which it provides under uniform regulations that allofficerswillwear 'between the deans and the Colfegiate Council soon. beards."

CONCERNING HOBBITS. by Wesley Steinherg
Columnist, Greetings! Along time ago in a strange land known as MiddleEarth, there lived a peculiar race of people referred to as Hobbits. Hobbits are an unobtrusive but very ancient people. though very little now is known about them. The .Hobbits of the. Elder Days were not overly fond of keeping records, and so~it wasn't until much later thai they began to keep some type of written account of themselves. By then they lived in their own land under their' own rule, and there they soon passed out of the history of Men. Hobbits are a little people. about .halfour height and' smaller than the beardedDwarves. Although inclined to be fat iii the stomach. they are neverthelesS extremely stealthy and have, the uncanny ability of disappearing quickly and quietly, should anyone they wish to avoid happen to come blundering by..They have longclever finger~
and are very adept at handling tools, though they dislikeanythingrnore complicated than a water-mill or hand-loom. Hobbits seldom wear shoes. since they have tough leathery soles and thick curly hair covering their feet. Consideringtheir size,Hobbitsare unusually stalwart and strong-willed, quick of hearing and sharp-eyed.a race quite able to.endure under .mo.stany hardship. , Ho~bitSare a quiet folk,lovers of poetry and Df.Songs;which they enjoy making up themselves, and of good tilled earth, the open countryside.. being one of their favourite haunts. 1Jley wear bright colours, cbieflygreen and yellow,have good-natured faces and love to.laugh, and not a few of . them are good at telling hearty, jokes. especially at parties, which they have on alm~. any occasion, On special holidays. such as birthdays, Hobbits 'enjoy giving presents to other 'people. Since someone was always having a birthday. one could expect' SOmekind of present at least once a week. It was a custom of which they never
tired. Hobbits have a fondness for the good life.which they cherish, and of six meals a , day. which they cherish even more. It iseasy to see why they are such a happy people! Most Hobbits generally prefer to live in holes in the ground. These holes are usually built into the side of a hilland contain many rooms which are constructed off large tunnels, or smials. The-rooms are completely furnished and quite comfortable, with panelled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted. The windows and doors for the most part are round, the front door being rather large; and since Hobbits are fond of visitors, the main hall is provided with many pegs for hats and coats. A
Hobbit's hole is more than just a hole in the ground. A Hobbit-hole means comfort. Concerning language. the Hobbits adopted the Common Speech. Westron, the language of Men. It is known that they had some contact with Men during the reign of the North Kingdom.from whom also they no doubt learned their letters and began to write after the manner of the Dunedain. the kings of Men from Westernesse, who had in their turn long before learned the art from the Elves. It was soon after this that the Hobbits began to' take an interest in recorded events, and it is at this time that legend among the Hobbits becomes history with a reckoning of years .

lANCERS TOPPLE MARQUETTE
TEAM SOARS
by Dick Goodall
Sports Editor I0 September 83, New Ulm.In a bruising, see-saw battle, the DMLCLancer defense staved off a late fourth quarter rally by the Marquette Warriors to win its season opener. Although giving up 197 yards through the air, and 95yards on the ground, the defense seemed to stiffenat just the right times to help preserve the victory. John Sebald, DwIght Sandvold, and Jim Tietz were major contributors to the defensive effort. Sebald led the defense with six solo tackles, thirteen assists, and one quarterback sack. Sandvold and Tietz added two quarterback sacks each. Defensive backs John Melso (six solos and one assist), Jeff Dorn (seven solos and four assists), and Dave Rust, with six solos and two assists, aided in a solid defensive effort. \ The Lancers proved that they can move the ball too. Led by quarterbacks MIke Oesch and Tom Plath, they racked up one hundred two yards passing for three touchdowns. John Mefsoadded two passes for twenty-eight yards, givingthe Lancers a total of one hundred thirty yards passing yardage. The offensive attack was furthered by the fine performances of running backs Paul Hunter and Phil Petennann_ Hunter carried thirteen times for sixty yards and Petermann, thirteen for thirty-six, AIIpurpose back Melsoalso carried for twentysix yards on four rushes. After fallingbehind 3 - 0 on a Marquette fiefd goal, Mike Oesch led the Lancers downfield, hitting Jerry Zeamer :in the endzone on a ten yard pass for DMLC'sfirst score. The Warriors scored again,and led 10 to 7 at the half. Early in the second half Oesch hit Rollin Tlmm on a fhirty-eight yard pass to put the Lance}. ahead at 14 to 10. Once more the Warriors took the lead with a third quarter 'score. In the fourth
quarter, Tom Plath, substituting for _the injured MikeOesch, hit Pauf Hunter on a six yard pass for the game winning touchdown. Marquette made a last minute drive in attempt to score, but the Lancer defensive unit's concerted effort saved the day.

lANCERS LOSE CONFERENCE OPENER by Dick Goodall
Sports Editor 24 September 83, Roseville, MN. With seven starters'side-lined by injuries, DMLC dropped its conference opener 'to 'the Northwestern Eagles by a score of 37 to O. Injuries notwithstanding, the game's outcome probably wouldn't have been much different as the Lancer offense inexplicably spun its wheels for the second straight week. The Lancers managed just seventy yards passing and only thirty-one net yards rushing. Phil Petermann's sixty-six yards on fourteen carries and Jeff Zwick's seven runs for thirty-two yards were offset by the minus sixty-seven yards compiled by other runners. _ lf the Lancer offensive performance was inexplicable. the Lancer defensive showirtg
was just as mysterious. The same unit which held the Seward Bulldogs to thirty-eight total yards in the second half of last week's game fell apart in the Northwestern game. They did keep the game reasonably close in. \. the first half,as the Lancers trailed by 16t6 O. In the end. however, they were unable to
contend with the Eagle quarterbacks, who amassed 241 yards passing, and runners. who gained 187yards on the ground. Once again John Sebald was the defensive leader for the Lancers with ten solo tackles and six assists. Perhaps the brightest spot of the game was the play of freshman running back Jeff Zwick.Hisperformance in the fourth quarter gave evidence-of excellence that portends well for the future.

lANCERS 3fHl by Dick Goodall
, SportsEditor" 17September 83, Seward, NE.The DMLC Lancers were brutally mauled in the first of their initial 1983road games. Amassinga 35 - 0 half-time lead, the Bulldogs' snapping offense and snarling defense hounded the Lancers in every phase of the game. A resurgent Lancer defense stopped the Bulldogs cold in the second half, however, permitting just thirty-eight total yards. Although the Lancer offense also evinced a spark of life in the second half, they were unable to put together a sustained scoring drive. and the final score remained 35 - O. Lownotes: The Lancers were mauled not only in the scoring department, but in personnel. too. At game's end the following 'Lancers were on the injured list: Mike Oesch, out for at least one game with shoulder and rib injuries;Paul Hunter, knee injury,but shou Idbe available for next game; Steve Fritze, out for an indeterminate period with a separated sternum and lung injury; Steve Bremer, -out' for the season with a broken collarbone.

by Sheryl Rausch Sports Editor The month of September was not only a busy time for the Lancer volleyball squad, it was also 'a lalrly successful one. The team opened its season with a 3-1 conference win _ over Concordia SI. Paul, and then - proceeded to vanquish another conference rival, SI. Teresa's, by a score of 3-0. At the Winona State Invitational,DMLCwas-able to defeat both' St. Teresa's (2-0) lind UWPlatteville (2-1), butlost to 51.Mary's (1-2), Winona State (0-2), and UW-RiverFalls (02).-Coach Buck's squad then went on to overcome St. Benedict by a match score of 3-0 in conference action, but dropped a 1-3 decision to St. Thomas. At the UM-Morris Invitational, the Lady Lancers could only beat Hamline(2-1). while sufferingdefeat at the hands of Winona State (1-2), UM-Morris (0-2), Gustavus (0-2), an~ SoutMr~t State (0-2). The team was able to bounce back qu1cklyand edge Viterbo 3-2 in conference play, before begin surpassed 2-3 by conference opponent SI.

AT SPORTS CROSS COUNTRY MAKES STRIDES
POWDER PUFF 1983 by Laurie Zachow Staff Writer
by Sheryl Rausch
Sports Editor Run over three miles up and down hills, along wooded trails, or. through the mud? Many 01 us would probably rather not care to attempt a race jn these conditions. However, that is exactly what the' DMLC women's cross country team has been doing - and doing very proficiently. At the rain-soaked st. Mary's Invitational on September 10. the Lancer women came in third place out 01 a field 01 lour schools. The team's next competition took place on the live kilOmetercourse at the College01St. Catherine on September 14.This time, the DMLC runners, led by Janice Kant and Bedd Renner, placed fifth against eight opponents. On September 24, the Lancers laced eleven other teams on the 5000 meter course at Mankato State University. Once
again led by Kant and Renner, DMLCwas awarded an eleventh place finish.At the St. Olaf Invitational on October I, the Lancer women laced their biggest challenge. The team proved they were up to the challenge, .however, by claiming seventeenth place 01 the twenty-one schools in the 5000 meter event. The Lancer runners. still have three more meets remaining in their season. A home invitational took place on October 8 beginning at 12:00.Then they travel to the TwinCitieS to take on Bethel Bible College on October 22. The Lancer team concludes its season with a conference meet at NWCMN on October 29. We wish them well in these IinaJ contests!
PIUSBURY HUMBLES lANCERS by Dick Goodall Sports Editor 01 October 83,New Ulm.DMLC'sLancers were troUl'IC~ by the -PIllsbury Comets today. Inwhat had been Iiclose, well-played game. the Cornets took advantage of some breaks in the second half to roll to a 42 - 14 victory.Trailing 14-8 at the hall, the Lancers ap~ to' have tied the-game earlyintlu! second half on a 57 yard run by PhIl Petermann, The m was nullified by a dipping penalty. however, and the LaJlcer drive stalled. Later," the Comets would mount their own drive and score, increasing their lead to 21-8. Paul Hunter scored for the Lancers early in the fourth quarter, capping a 56 yard drive. Then, alter stopping the Comets on their next series of downs, disaster struck the Lancers. Unable to move the ball, the Lancers were forced to punt. but a highsnap from center caused the kick to be blocked. The Comets recovered ..the ball on the 'Lancer three yard .line and quickly scored. They would score twice more, on a pass
interception. and on a well-executed pass play, putting the game out of reach. and turning what had been an evenly played match into a debacle. Even though they were on the losing end 01 the score. the Lancers' offensive unit broke out of its recent lethargy. compiling \10 yards passing and 158 yards rushing. Tom Plath hit on 13of 28passes, while Paul Hunter carried eighteen times for eighty-five -yards, and Phil Petermann had .sixty-nine yards on' twenty-fIVecarries.

lANCER GOLFERS NOW lWO AND lWO by Dick Goodall Sports Editor The DtdLC gOlfers started their season with an easy victory over Viterbo College. Don Koiander took medalist honors with an 89. Da~ Kolaader had a 93, and Dan Markgraf and Karl ~uer eachhad 95's. The final score was 372 for DMLCand 402 for Viterbo. On September .16th, DML~.traveled to Pillsbury where they lost bY.a mere four strokes. Don Kolander Ied:the Lancers with a score of83, followed by DanMMkgrafwith 86, John Sc:bJayenaky, 91, and Dave . Koep.eIl at 98..Final score was PIllsbury 354, DMLC358. ._ DMLCbeat the visitingConcordia Comets in a dual meet in New·UIm' on September 24th. Dave Kolander lOOkscoring honors with an 85. CI~ behind.were John Kaspar with an 87, Dan Markgraf with an 88, and
Dave Koepsell with a 91. Taking time-out from dual meet competition, the Lancers participated in an invitational tournament at St. Mary's in Winona, MN.John Schlavenskywas the top Lancer golfer with a score of 85. It was a tough day for the Lancers as no one else broke 90. Needless to say. the Lancers did not ·winthe tournament. In a return match with Concordia. the Comets took revenge for their earlier loss to the Lancers, wirming by a margin of 329 to 346. John Schlavensky led the Lancers with' a score of 83. DaveKolanderand KarlBauer carded identical87's, and DaveKoepsellhad an 89.Withthis loss,.the Lancers record was evened at two wins and two losses.
One ofthe most popular things to do in fall is to' play football. Here at DMLCthe men aren't the only ones who get to play. but the women get to show orrtheir skillsalso in the powder purr football games that are played during Homecoming week. Each class has a team and all four teams start practicing about two weeks before Homecomingweek. Alter many hours of doing drills, going through plays, and having scrimmages, the teams are ready to compete against one another. This year the first game was played on Monday with the freshmen team going against the defending champion seniors. Ina well-played game the seniors came out on top, 6-0. On Tuesday itwas the sophomores vs. the juniors, and' in a close game the sophomores ended up. winning, 6-0. Wednesday was the consolation game and the junior team ended up in third place by beating the freshmen. 6-0. The championship game was played between the seniors and the sophomores on Thursday, and in an exciting and intense game the seniors
became the powder puff champs for the second year by beating the sophomores 128. By looking at the results of all these games. you can see that all of the teams practiced hard and played well.The women take powder purr very seriously and are willingto get banged and bruised up during practice and the games for their teams. The teams are coached by members of the football team, and these men put in a lot of time and effort to 'get the women ready to play in the games. Without the help of the coaches we probably wouldn't be able to have powder purr,so a big"thank you" goes outto all of them. Whether their team won or lost. all of the women benefited from their powder puff experience in that it taught them the importance of working together as a team. The scores may show who the losers were. but all the women who participated in powder purr are winners.
CONCORDIA SPOIlS HOMECOMING by Dick Goodall Sports Editor 08 October 83. New Ulm.For the second consecutive week the Lancers lost a ballgame that they could have won. Offensively, they played about as well as they've played all year. and defensively, they stopped Concordia most 01 the afternoon. although giving up large chunks of yardage in the process. As has been' the case in recent weeks, errors, both physical ~nd mental. would prove' the Lancer's undoing Alter playinga scoreless first half.an early third quarter error brought the game's first score. Concordia intercepted a Lancer pass at DMLC's48 yard line and then marched downfieldfor the score. The big play on this drive was a twenty-six yard pass which took Concordia to the DMLC 4 yard line. A lengthy injury delay ensued, but when play resumed, Concordia needed only two plays to score. A two point conversion attempt was successful. and Concordia led lYl. Undaunted. the Lancers took the followingkickoff and drove to Concordia's 8 yard line on the strength of two Tom Plath to Rollin TImm passes of 29 and II yards. At that point the Lancer attack stalled, and they settled for a field goal. The field goal. which had been good, was disallowed because one of the Lancer players failed to put his mouthpiece in. The Lancers were charged with a timeout and forced to kick
the field goal again. The second attempt failed. The Lancers stopped Concordia on its next series. and started another drive only to be thwarted by yet another interception. Taking advantage of the interception. Concordia raced to another score on passes of 26, 5. and 20 yards. Concordia's top ground gainer. Jim Brown. lugged the ball the finalthree yards for the score. The extrapoint made the score 1!Hl. Once more the Lancers mounted a drive. Mike Oesch, in for the injured Tom Plath. hac!a run of 14yards. and Paul Hunter, two for 16 yards each. Hunter's second sixteen y~rder put the Lancers on the board. but it was all the scoring they would do as Concordia ran out the clock. Tom Plath hit on I I of 25 passes for 151 yards, and running backs Phil Petermann and .Paul Hunter had 66 and 69 yard. respectively. John Sebald, SkIp Noon, and DwIght Sandvold led the defensive effort with fivesolo tackles each. Kevin Kutz and Dave Ring added four apiece.

The rose is set in a sky-colored field to show that such joy of the spirit and faith is the beginning of the heavenly joy to come, present already in our joy now and embraced by hope, but not yet made manifest."
On Wednesday. October 26. a number of DMLC students and local congregation members participated in an informal recreation of the life and times of Martin Luther. No,they did not put on a play or visit 'Germany. Instead, they attended a slide series given by Prof. Morton Schroeder. The evening's program emphasized the similarities between Luther'S time and the present. A comparison was made through old woodcuts which showed the way things were at Luther's time and modern photographs which show how they look today. The audience visited the cities of Eisleben, Eisenach, Erfurt, Wittenberg. Worms, and Leipzig and also places such as Wartburg and Coburg. Through the use of maps and pictures, Prof.Schroeder put the geographical distances between these places into perspective by comparing them to a map of Minnesota. The evening ended on the note ofLuther's seal and Luther's own explanation of it.Prof. - Schroeder commented on the evening, "I lelt very good because I had a small but receptive audience . . . I was also very pleased that members 01our local churches are interested enough in Luther to spend an evening looking at slides 01 him and his lands." Thus the program was a layman's love for Luther, photography, and travel. The slides fOr the series .were compiled .trorn Prol. Schroeder's trips to Germany in 1970 and 1977.He also wrote a biography of Martin Luther, entitled Martin Luther: Man of God, which was published in June of this year.

DOUBLE BILLING, DOUBLE PLEASURE by Cathy Starke Staff Writer
Shadowy haunted forests, the supernatural. a good insight into humanity, and hilarious comedy - there was something for almost everyone in the two classic Hawthorne tales which were brought to vivid life by the talented company of Boston's Chamber Repertory Theatre. The ~~~;a~, ~~v~h;:rer:~r;:~~~ e~~n ,,~~ Heidegger's Experiment," a look at the popular longingof older people for their lost youth. Three withered old people became young again for a few minutes by drinking water from the Fountain of Youth. They resolved to drink of it forever and never . grow old, while Dr. Heidegger himself watched their foolishness and remained content with his age. The actors' mimics of age and youth were well done and very convincing.

S IS FOR SLAVERY by Judy Delikat Editor in Chief Slavery is almost a forgotten practice now. It has been outlawed for many years in the United States and is seldom seen in any other civilizedpart of the world. Do you ever consider yourself a slave? It's hard to imagine belonging to someone else. In fact, though, we are all slaves because we were bought with a price: Christ's blood. We at DMLCare under another kind of slavery, a self-made slavery.We have givenour lives to God - not as priests and nuns in cloisters and abbeys - bot as men and women pledging to serve God with their whole lives as they do the work he' has for them in his kingdom. We place everything we have at his feet, even submitting to his power as master to send us where he feels we can serve him best. I am not suggesting that teaching makes you feel likea slave. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Standing in front of a classroom, the teacher is illcharge and has control of others. This is hardly slavery. Yet it is a form of slavery. The apostle Paul was the first to call himselfa slave for Christ,and his is an accurate term. Consider the purpose behind teaching. Is it for glory, self-recognition, power? No. lf this were the case, we would have a great shortage of teachers because few could find these rewards in teaching. The rewards of teaching are much more precious: seeing others grow in knowledge and in God's Word, sharing love with those who need it, and knowing that our work is not in vain because God has promised to be with us. Surely the greatest reward is knowing that God's kingdom is progressing by the work of our hands. These are the rewards of a dedicated slave whose goal is to serve his master in every way possible. This brings glory to God, not to the teacher. Nowdo you consider yourself a slave? The black slaves before the CivilWar were ashamed oftheir status as slaves. There is no need for us to be ashamed. Paul never regretted his role as a slave for Christ. God grant that we may never regret ours either.
DEAR DANA DEAR DANA,

We would like to know the reasoning· behind the rule concerning the use of commercial games on school computers. We think this rule should be reviewed, If ABSOLUTELY no one is using the computers, there should be no re~on why commercial games cannot be allowed. It is our opinion that computers are multifunctional. This means that computers serve not only educational purposes but are also very versatile in other situations, We feel that there are alternatives to the problem of turning the computer center into a "video arcade" other than prohibiting ALL use of commercial games. One such suggestion would be to have certain hours, such as 3:00 to 5:00 on Saturday, when commercial games could be allowed.We DO NOTwant to make it sound like all we want to do is play games. Priority should indeed be granted to anyone having school-related work.. We feel that the computer is 'not only a tool for work but also has great recreational

On November 6, 1983, fifty-fourseniors participated in their class event. They went to the Chanhassen Dinner Theater, which is south of the Twin Cities, for an evening of first-class dining and entertainment. The concept of a dinner theater has been popular tor nearly twenty years. A dinner is served prior to the presentation of the play which is performed in the same large room which serves as a dining area The price of the meal is included in the ticket price. The Chanhassen is celebrating its fifteenth anniversary, and for this occasion, Annie is the special feature this season. Almost half of the seniors who participated in this event saw Annie, and they were impressed by the fine acting, staging; and costuming' of this very popular musical. A majority of the seniors saw.I Dol I Dol, a musical comedy now in its thirteenth year .It begins in 1890and takes the audience from a young couple's wedding day through their fiftyyears of married life.The humor of this . musical was appreciated by all who saw it. A few people decided not to see either of these familiarplays but chose to viewanew
As I prepare to become a teacher, quite often my mother's teaching experiences come to mind. One that I remember especially weltis the time that a third-grader came to her with a problem.

Once more he tried, "Me forgot my lunch!"
play. Mass Appeal deals humorously with the conflicts and resolution of traditional and modern ideals as portrayed by an older priest and a young seminarian. A fourth play, On the Alrl, brought back to life the popular radio-shows of the '40s. Seniors who were not able to attend the November 6th performances have an opportunity to go to the Chanhassen Dinner Theater February 19, 1984,to see Annie, I Dol I Dol, and Mass Appeal. A fourth play, Crimes of the Heart, will also be presented. This play, although humorous on the surface, reveals the insanity of lifewhich .is hidden by a veneer of normalcy in daily life. The seniors voted in a class meeting to organize a cultural activity which would be available to the entire senior class. The evening of fine dining and excellent entertainment enjoyed by these seniors was made possible by the followingcommittee to whom appreciation is extended: Becky Spaude, Cathy Rubin, Janice Kant, Timothy M, Pieper, and Janet Kindt.

During the visit 170 students and faculty members gave blood throughout the day. The turnout was not as good as ithas been in previous years, but with so many of the
students involvedin faitsports, many of the team members were not altowed to give. Even though we all have very busy schedules, we ought to think about taking a few minutes of our day.to help. Sometimes we don'trealize the great demand for blood in our area.

Thanksgiving is very special because it is uniquelyAmerican, I'm sure that we are the only country to celebrate Thanksgiving, f don't think they do in Turkey. Seriously, f wonder ifthe Pilgrimsknew what they were starting when they celebrated that first three-day feast? They started a tradition that has lasted through depressions, wars and other crises in America. Thanksgiving has become one of the most loved holidays for many reasons. College students love Thanksgiving. I know I look forward to it's arrival. f start counting down the days when I see a vacation drawing near. Can't you just smell that succulent, oven brown turkey roasting inthe oven? Just imagine,real potatoes with real butter and pumpkin pie topped off with .
whipped cream - real food is great! Think of all those days to sleep in late, see old friends and catch up on that oral report due the Monday we get back to school, . Mothers like Thanksgiving.too - at least, I think they do. I never see mine;she is always busy in the kitchen. First there's the turkey that has to go intothe ovenat 5:00am., andthen cutting all the vegetables. Mom spends Thanksgivingin a 105degree kitchen with a turkey. After we all eat, she and I spend the day in the kitchen doing a pileofdishes while Dad sits in his favorite chair watching the football games. He tries to look macho, but actually he is sound asleep. Poor Dad, he had a hard day, carving the turkey. The family pets love Thanksgiving, too. The dog strategically places himself under the chair from which the most food will fall. The dog even gets special attention on this day. All of the relatives who pinch your cheek and kiss you on the tip of your nose, always pet the dog. Yes, Thanksgiving is a special time of the year. With all of the preparations of the day that seem to become hassles, Thanksgiving is still a favorite holiday. We all know we should be thankful for everything we have, and it's special to have a day set aside for doing just that.

TIMELY, TIMELY
lJy Jane Zimmerman Assistant Editor It's 7:30 on a Sunday morning. A hungry DMLCstudent decides to get up early and go to Sunday breakfast for the first time, just to see what it's like.What the student finds is a quiet cafeteria, with more kitchen workers present than 'breakfast eaters. The cold cereal isout, phis some juice and danishes of some sort. Before the student is done eating, ¡the entrance' to the cafeteria is closed. The scene Ihave described is one that could happen on any Sunday morning at DMLC.Sunday breakfast, which is served from 7:15 to 7:45 a.m., is'the quietest meal of the week. Very few'S'iUden!soutside of the fewwho attend lh'"early church services get up in time to eat. Since the managers of the . cafeteria have been wondering what to do about this situation, this month's "Student Survey" has attempted to help them get the students' viewpoints by asking them, "Do you eat Sunday breakfast?" "Wouldyou eat it more often if it were at a different time?" and "What time would you prefer?" Over one-third ofthe students who reside in the dormitories responded to the survey. Of these, only seven percent said they usually go to Sunday breakfast. Fivepercent only go occasionally, and the remaining eighty-eight percent say they never do. . Answers to the next question, "Wouldyou eat it more often if it were at a different - time?" were quite a bit more diverse. Forty percent said they would not eat Sunday breakfast, even at a different time; sixty percent said either that they might or that they definitely would. The times suggested ranged anywhere between 7:00 and 10:00. Most people eitherwanted breakfast to be served from 8:00 to 9:30, or any time that would "accornodate both first and second service goers." A surprising comment' made by a few people was that they "didn't even know there was a Sunday breaktast," Hopefully, 'everyone is at least aware now that Sunday breakfast is served. The cafeteria managers will be giving some consideration to the . students' responses and comments.
TIME Some people kill time. They are fools, Closely related to them are people who waste time. They are loafers. Many people seek a good time. They are but human beings. And there are people who make time. They are lovers. Some people call time. They are referees, Other people keep time. They are musicians. A relative few serve time. They are prisoners.

HOBBIT-B.REEDS:AND
THE FOUNDING
WORKS)
OF THE SHIR.E
Wesley Steinberg Columnist
Greetings! Before the crossing of the Misty Mountains the Hobbits had alreaey become divided into three somewhat different breeds: Harfoots, Fallohides, and Stoors. Harfoots. The Harfoots had much to do with Dwarves in ancient times, and they long lived in the foothills of the mountains. They are darker of skin and much smaller than others of their race. They were the first to move westward across the rnourgains, wandering in the province of.Eriador as far as Weathertop, a rather large hill east of Bree. The Harfoots,are the most inclined to settle in one place and prefer highlands and hillsides. long preserving their custom of dwellingin tunnels (s)l11a,1.s) and holes. They are the most normal, and, representative variety of Hobbit, and. by fru:,the most numerous.
Fallohldes. The Fallohides are a northerly branch of Hobbit. and the least numerous, They crossed the mountains north of Rivendell,the land of the Elves,and
came down the, River HoarwelL In Eriador they soon mingled with the other kinds that had preceded them. Fallohides are more friendly with Elves than other Hobbits, and they have a greater skill 'in language and song. They are also fairer of skin and often taller instature. They are frequently found in some leadership capacity, being characteristically more adventurous than others of their people. The Fallohides are primarily lovers of trees and of woodlands, where they often make their homes, Stoon. The Stoors originated in the upper vales of the Great RiverAnduin,where they had once lived in close Concord with the Men of that region, They are larger and heavier than their fellows and generally prefer flatlands and riversides, The Stoors were the last Hobbit-tribe to leave Wilderland and move west across the Misty Mountains. They came after the Harfoots and followed the.course of the River Loudwater southwards, and there many of

them long dwelt between Tharbad and the borders of Dunland :before they moved north again. The Stoors absorbed much of their culture from Dunland, which was also closely akin to the culture of the Bree-rnen, themselves descended from ancestors of the Men of Dunland. In the westlands of Eriador, between the MistyMountains and the Mountains of Lurie, the Hobbits found both Men and Elves. 'Indeed, a remnant still dwelt there of the Dunedain, the kings of Men that came over the Sea out of Westernesse. Unfortunately, the Dunedain were dwindling rapidly and the lands of their North Kingdomwere falling into ruin. There was much room for newcomers, and the Hobbits began to establish ordered communities, the oldest of these being Bree, which they also shared with Men. Later, in the one thousand six hundred and first year of the Third Age, Marcho and Blanco, two Fallohide brothers, set out of
Bree with a great followingof Hobbits and crossed the brown river Baranduin, which they later renamed Brandywine. They passed over the Bridgeof Stonebrows, that had been built in the days of the power of the North Kingdom.and they took aU the land beyond to dwell in, stretching forty leagues between the river and the Far Downs. The Hobbits immediately fell in love with their new land. They named it the Shire and there they remained. Thus began the Shirereckoning. for the year of the crossing of the Brandywine became Year One of the Shire, and all later dates were reckoned from it. And there in that pleasant corner of the world they plied their well-ordered business of living, heeding less and less the world outside, until they passed altogether from the memory of Men and Elves.

Do you find your-mind wandering during those first few humid weeks of classes? Or wonder what it would be like to be out student teaching instead of paging through that syllabus of assignments? The first quarter student teachers have returned with some very memorable experiences to share with the campus family. The first subject that Janice Winter took over was math. During her very first math lesson. being nervous enough as it was, a little boy had to vomitright in the middle of the lesson. How's that for encouraging student response? Kurt Rosenbaum was assigning the First Commandment as memory work for Word ~f God. He thought he would reassure the children by telling them it was the shortest of the Ten Commandments. He proceeded to recite, "the First Commandment. Thou shalt ... " and couldn't remember what they were not supposed to have! Fortunately a fifth grade girl came to the rescue and recited it for him. . One little first grade boy surprised Usa Malle on the day before she left.He tookher hand, got down on his knees and said, "Miss Maile,willyou marry me? Of course you wiU have to wait a few years for me!" Julle Stieg, while teaching Hymnology on a particularly warm day, went over to play the hymn on the piano. When Julie tried to get up from the bench, she was stuok! . •• , I."
Finally she, was able to peel herself away from the warm varnish and piano bench. She really left her mark! . A very memorable experience for Karen WhIttier was when one of her third grade boys said to her after school one day, "Iwish you were my mother, Miss Whittier." She curiously asked why he said that. He replied, "Because then I wouldn't have to go home and miss you." Those children do make teaching worthwhile. Renae Schwandt was listening to the third graders recite the explanation to the FIrst Article.One of the boys had apparently forgotten to study the night before. When he gotto the part which says, "and Ibelieve that God gave me my eyes, ears, and all my members ... " he became confused and said with some hesitation. "and Ibelieve that God gave me ... all my ears'?" I guess you better study that some more! One afternoon while teaching American History it was necessary for AJbert Szeto to use the chalkboard to illustrate a point. As he turned around to continue, a UFOcame flying at him, landed on his head. and bounced offthe lectern onto the floor. Itwas a spitball!Albert asked who threw it and one student in jest admitted to the act, although .Albert knew it was not his doing.Albert told the students, "Who ever threw it never meant to aim at me; it just flew off course and lande<!,in.my territory," •• 4. ;.Ii.

A GLANCE AT SPORTS THREE YARDS AND A CLOUD OF DUST by Dick Goodall Sports Editor
IS OCT. 83, NEW ULM,MN. Shades of Woody Hayes and the Ohio State Buckeyes.. That's what this reporter was reminded of as DMLC'sLancers used the Ohio State "three yards and a cloud of dust" offense of old to run their way to victory over Maranatha. Fullback Paul Hunter provided the "three yards" 'in the manner of Buckeye fullbacks, rollingup 112yards on 23 carries. But itwas Tailback Phil Petermann who was the "cloud ofdust," as he turned in a: superlative performance, gaining 182 yards on 32 carries. Appropriately, Philwas named New Ulm's Outstanding Athlete of the Week for his performance. Quarterback Mike Oesch called a fine game and hit on 10of 21 passes for 55yards in what must be considered the Lancer's best offensiveshowing to date. DMLChad a total of 349yards on offense inwinningtheir second game of the season. The Lancers scored first,a rarity for them, on Kevin Kutz's first quarter fieldgoal from 30 yards out. They added six more points in the second quarter as MikeOesch passed to Jerry Zeamer for the score. At the end 'of
the half DMLCled by 9-0. Phil Petermann capped an outstanding performance by scoring in the third quarter to give the Lancers a 15-0 lead. Maranatha scored with just four minutes remaining in the game. They would gain possession of the ball twice more after their touchdown, but the Lancer 'defense proved too strong for them in securing the victory. BITSAND PIECES:Jerry Zeamer had 6 receptions for 41 yards in the game. Dave Rust played a terrific game on defense, intercepting 2 passes, recovering 1 fumble, and recording 5 solo tackles. John Sebald contributed ten solo tackles and 8 assists on defense. Despite their offensive performance, the Lancers were able to score only 15points. They should have had twice that. Its almost as if they lack a killer instinct when inside the opponents twenty yard line. Finally,a tip 0' the hat to offensive linemen John Blievemicht, Jeff Roloff, Dan Lueck, and Pete Kuske, without whom Phil and Paul could not have had so great a day.
TROJANS STOP lANCERS by Dick Goodall Sports Editor
22 OCT. 83, WATERTOWN,WI. It was a wet, muddy day, and appropriately, DMLC's offense spun its wheels in the mud in losmg to NWC'sTrojans by a score of 18 to 6. As has been the case so often this season, the Lancers lost the first half of the garnet but won the second half, out-scoring the Trojans 6 to 0, though it would prove to be too little, too late. DMLC's fine runningbacks, Phil Petermann and Paul Hunter, were held to just 24 and 33 yards respectively. The aerial attack fared somewhat better, gaining 116yards, including 43 on a PhilPetermann to Jerry Zeamer pass. As the game progressed, the defense seemed to get better. After a disastrous first quarter, they managed to slow down the
CROSS COUNTRY HAS SUCCESSFUL FIMSH by Sheryl Rausch Sports Editor
The large amounts of time and energy the DMLC women's cross country team devoted to its practices obviously paid offin the conclusion of its 1983 season, When they faced two other teams under rainy, overcast skies at St. Benedict's on October 19, the Lancer women came in second place. Janice Kant captured a first place finish, followed closely by Becld Renner who placed twelfth. At the 5000 m. Bethel Invitational on October 22, Lancer runners claimed seventh place from a field oi ten competitors. The team's last meet featured four schools contending for the Upper Midwest Women's Collegiate Conference championship at Northwestern-Roseville on October 29. Here, DMLCwas awarded a third place standing. This year marks the end of the collegiate running careers of five seniors: Sherrie Akright, Janice Kant, Chris Marasch, and Judy Wetzel. The team willsorely miss the efforts of these five runners and the contributions they made toward the team. However, the remaining members of the team showed great promise' and potential for another successful season next year. Once again, let us saiute the 1983Women's Cross Country team for a job well done!
slickTrojan offense, keeping the game close. John Sebald led the defensive effortwith 16 solo tackles and 7 assists. Kevin i(utz added 8 solos and 7 assists. The Lancer pass rush, nearly extinct in earlier games, was revived by Dwight Sandvold and' Craig Zibrowsld, as,each recorded a quarterback sack. . The Lancers lost two defensive stalwarts for the rest of the season as Jim Tietz received a back injury, and Dan Dettmann reinjuried his knee. Senior offensive tackle John Blievemlcht missed much of the game because of a shoulder injury, but should be available for the Lancer's final game.
VOLLEYBAll. by Sheryl Rausch Sports Editor
At the time of the last issue, the DMLC volleyball team was defending its 4-1 conference record and a 7-9 overall record. However, with conference play now ended, the Lancer women possess' a 7-5 record. This mark places them in third place within the conference. The team presently stands 11-18 overall with six more matches and a conference tournament remaining. This tourney, scheduled for November 7, will conclude the 1983 season. N conference play has also ended, and the Lancers hold a 5-1 record:' Their overall record presently stands at 5-2 with 'one match remaining. Lynne Bitter continues to lead the team in serving percentage (97%) and in assists (J 65). Kris Redlin heads the Lancers in both defensive digs and ace serves (33). The squad's two big hitters remain Judy Putz and Usa, Quam with 142 and 99 kills respectively. Putz also leads the defense with 40 ace blocks, while Quam takes the honors in total points scored on the season (J 93). Cgngratulations to these players and the entire team!

LANCERS TO MT. SENARIO'S BANDITS by Dick Goodall Sports Editor
29 OCT. 83, LADYSMITH,WI. The NFL collegiate football with uncalled-for tactics. Oakland Raiders have a reputation for rough The Lancers made a game of it in the first play on the field,and itcan be fairlysaid that quarter after falling behind 17-0. They the Upper Midwest Collegiate Conference scored on a 9 yard run by Phil Petermann has, its own cast 01 bad characters in the to make the score 17-6. Then, following a form of the Mt. Senario Bandits (a.k.a. short punt by Mt.Senario,the Lancers drove Fighting Saints). Several of the Bandits, not to Senario's four yard line, but were the whole team mind you, but three or four, thwarted in their bid to score. Up to that put on a display of cheap shot artistry and point, momentum had clearly shifted to the poor sportsmanship, that can only give Lancers and if they had scored, the game credence to a recent British sportswriter's mightwellhave had a different outcome. "If' description of American football as, isa mighty bigword and it surely doesn't win "organized mayhem." Add to that, some of football games. The Bandits took charge and the poorest officiatingwe have experienced pushed across another score to carry a 25to all season, and it comes out to a long ,6 lead into the half.Alter Mt.Senario scored' afternoon for the Lancers.

Paul Hunter led the Lancer offense with 78 yards on 21 carries. Phil Petermann added 39yards on 13rushes. Mike Oesch came in late in the game and hit on 4 of 9 passes, includingaerials of 30,21,20 and 8yards, for a total of 79yards. Tom Plath hit 7 of 13for 42yards. Jerry Zeamer caught 5 passes for 37 yards. That gave Jerry a total of 44 receptions lor the season, Research is being conducted to determine if that is a school record.

were held October 20. It took three nerve-racking hours for everyone trying out to perform the necessary requirements. Twelve judges rated the girls on their skill, precision, and achievement. After all the scores were tabulated, and the list was posted, ten juniors, five sophomores, and one freshman were chosen to be on the squad. Leaving the squad were three seniors Elise Sauer, Julie Bergemann (cocaptains), and Brenda Bode. I'm certain their spirit and leadership will be missed. Karen Ramlck and Ruth Denninger were chosen to be the new captains lor the 83-84squad. Withten home games this year, much work and practice is already underway. The background music that is used for the routines is' picked with the mutual consent ofthe squad. Aftera song is decided upon, three or four girls work together to design a routine. During practice - -from 4:00-5:30, Monday thru Thursday - the new routine is taught to the other girls. "Try it again" or "Do it over" is heard many times before the finalperformance in front ofyou, the audience. In the plans for the porn pon squad is a new look!Newsweaters, skirts, dual colored gloves, and porn pons were ordered and should be arriving soon! Also in the plans of the porn pon squad is the continued effort to provide halftime entertainment which they hope is as enjoyable to watch as it is to perform.

DEAR FUTURE TEACHER by Karen Siewert Staff Writer Have you ever felt discouraged or ready to quit school after a difficultday of classes? Maybeyou findit a scary thought to actually be a teacher. Mr, Thomas Krueger, who teaches sixth grade at St. John's Lutheran School in Jefferson, WISconsin, had also experienced some of these same thoughts as a student at DMLC.As a penmanship' assignment, his sixth graders wrote letters of encouragement to future teachers showing their simple faith and great insight into life. Dear future teacher,
Don't be afraid to become a teacher. Just think of when the teacher was yellingat you, well, now it is your turn. We need all you so don't quit. If the Lord didn't want you to teach you wouldn't be there. Just finish school God knows what is best. He will change you io. Just keep going God knows where you're gomgor what your goingto do. Think of all the unbelieving kids who never have a chance to learn. Or they learn it, but push it aside, So finishschool and become a teacher. Dan Dettmers
Is God's Word important to you? Is it important to everyone? See if you quit nobody will teach us God's Word. Do you want everyone to go to heaven? Well than go and teach God's Word, If you are scared

pray for help God willlisten and answer you, but remember you are doing a favor for God. My prayers are for you where ever you may go, God bless you all. Amen: Dawn Mayer Don't give up. Our teacher, Mr. Krueger went to the same school. He was afraid also. But he knew that the Lord was with him. Look at hymn one, and read vs 2, 4, and 5. Let the Lord be with you. Please don't give up we need God's Word to be spread all over the world. Derek My name is Lisa Jaeger and I am in Mr. Thomas Krueger's class in St. John's Lutheran-School, Jefferson, WIS. He told us that some of you future teachers have doubts about becoming teachers. I don't know what it would be like but if you trust in God he will protect and watch over you. He will choose whether or not he wants you to become a teacher. If you are there He must have chosen you. Don't be afraid.Mr.Krueger likeshis job and so will you. God be with you wherever you go. . Lisa .laeger Mr.Krueger has mentioned to us that alot ofyou are afraid to go out and teach and that you might just give up and not go at all. But alot of Christian schools need you to teach and bring them the Word of God, so don't

Thomas Scherenke We. the sixth grade, all encourage you to stay and learn the ways of God. If there are any doubts in your mind, forget about them because all of us know that afl kids throughout the world need nice, friendly, and lovinglyteachers like you. And through out your years bf God. the Lord be with you. Mark "Frenchle" Frystak We are looking forward to new teachers for schools across the world.

. by Judy Delikat Editor in Chief "Whyam I here? Do I really want to be a teacher? People-roll their eyes when I tell them what I'm studying. They say I'rnIoolishbecause there isn't a job market for teachers," Why are you here? ,I heard someone say he came to, play football. Someone else came because his girlfriendcame. One girl came because she didn't know what else to do. Another came because she wants to be the best teacher her students ever had. ' You're probably wondering why Iask.Isn't December a littlelate to be askinga question like that? By now the lootball season is over. Boyfriends have broken up with their girlfriends. Those who didn't know have decided they want to do something else. It's obvious that those who are len want to be teachers. But why? Why would someone go to school for four years to be a Lutheran grade school teacher? There may,not even be a call for him or her at graduation. ' Allover America there are commercials on 1V .and radio stations urging people to adopt a child and save his Iife.Theywant money for clothes, food.and medical care so that children in poorer nations. can have some of the same benefits Americans have. This is your chance to save a child. Isn't that what teaching is all about? Christianeducation . is based on God's Word, Think of all the children in the world who don't have the benefit of knowing their Savior,Become a teacher and givethese starving children the food they'lI never be without. Yes, this is what teaching is all about. , It's true. it is a little late to be asking why you are here, But many other people willask you this question. Willyou have a good answer?

Sports Editor After a disappointing 6-15 overall record and a 1-7conference mark last year, DMLC women have again donned uniforms and taken to the basketball court.

Betty Carter, Beth Kuehl (last year's leader in asssists), Laureen Jaeger, and Beth Wendland; and freshmen Sue Carter, Ann Klatt, Cindy Uennan, Anne Melhack, Sharon Mundt, and Krlstle Rogotzke. Juniors Mary Ellen Meeboer and Sarah Schimming are once more managing the team. Although the squad is an unusually young group with Putz,Quam. Redlin.Beaudin. and
by Dick Goodall Sports Editor Short on height. but not on talent. That pretty much summarizes the 198~·84men's basketball team. Just as with Lancer teams in the past. they will have to rely on a~gressiveness, quickness. a minimum of fouls and turnovers. and some good outside shooting to defeat their opponents. If they can avoid fallingbehind by a large margin, the lancers have the guns to wina fairshare of their games. Coach Dennis Go rsllne will suit up fourteen players this season. including eight lettermen and three starters from last year's squad. Gone from last year's starting fiveare Jim Unke, who played center. and guard 11m T~rge ....on. This year's squad has high hopes of improvingon the 6 and 16record of last year. Sophomore all-conference forward Tom Plath returns as the Lancers' leadingscorer and rebounder. Tom is a superb player and ,: t!le.lancers .willrely heavily on his,scoring 'abilitiesto help them win. But this' is by'no , means a one man, team. Phil Werth, a ·~phom"'r~ forward, also reium'!Hrom last·· .: year's squad. Phil,too. is capable of scoring . a lot of points. but his.forte is rebounding and defense. He is the bestIeaper on the squad and often takes the center tip·off to start a game. At center wilf be sophomore Mark Koelpln. From a technical point of •. view, Mark is our premier defensive player, but it is hoped that he'll' provide somescoring punch from 'the post too. Joel· ·"Train" Burmeisterwillstart at one guard. Quick and aggressive, Joel can score from anywhere on the court. He can play forward, too, ifneed be. The "old man" of the squad is senior and captain, Glenn Davis, who wilf start at the other guard position.Glenn isthe quarterback and calls the offensive and defensive signals. He doesn't shoot much. but usually hits when he does. His greatest asset wilf be in settling this young team down when the going gets rough. Paul Scriver is the sixth man. who. in the tradition of all sixth men. is expected to come off the bencl1 to provide a lift in the scoring department.·1t is' hoped that his deadly outside shootin!!wilfbreak up some of the tight 2·~zones teams are expected to throw at us. Other players expected to see a lot of action are Ken Lehman, a defensive and rebounding specialist. and probably the most dedicated man on the team; Dan Kaesmeyer, quick and aggressive, a good ·shooter. who wilf challenge for a starting role before season's end; Ed "Skip" Noon, could be a tremendous asset to the team' with speed, shooting and rebounding; John Melso, perhaps the quickest man on the squad, good defense and a keen shooting eye; and freshman Paul Strutz, plays a talI' 6'1", rugged rebounder, and shoots well,but has a tendency to force his shots at times. He'n improve.

Beth Kuehl sank I S points for the Lancers.
while KrisClausrutzer chipped in 22 points for the Alumni effort. A rather unique point of interest in this game was the reappearance of Miss Leopold in'the game after she had technically fouled out!

by Karen Siewert Stuff Writer
What can make you smile faster than that first peek inyour mailboxand seeing a letter inside"?This would make you, especially happy if the letter was. from the children whom you student taught. Many-student teachers feelthat the letters they receive are a true reward of their experience and they want to share this part with the campus family. Dear Miss (Terri) Hall, School isn't the same without.you. It's so boring, no laughing, no fooling around, no spitballs. no nothing but work. It's the pits. We are playing a new game called dodgeball. We are losing 4 to¡3 games. It's fun when you are winning but not when you

Education is expensive. Ignorance is even
EAND N FOR
TEACHER PSYCHOLOGY by Judy Delikat Editor in Chief
When you become a sophomore at DMLC,you learn about reinforcement. In psychology, you learn how it affects behavior. In Introduction to Education,you learn that itisimportant in the classroom. But, if you are, like most average people, you probably knew about reinforcement even before you came to DMLC.Then you called it encouragement. Actually the principle is quite basic. If you tltink about how you feel when someone says something encouraging to you, it's easy to understand how it can have a measurable effect on behavior. People always feel good when others like what they're doing. Encouragement motivates people to keep doing a good job or to try again ifthey didn't succeed the first time. . Knowing about the effect encouragement has on behavior makes it even easier to understand its importance in the classroom. When you wailt students to repeat something that they did,you encourage them to do it again,either bywords or actions. Inthe same way, if encouragement can make a child repeat something, discouragement should make him stop what he was doing.This,too, is important for teachers. Awell-managed classroom is essential for effective teaching, and strict discipline plays an important part in maintaining a .good teaching and learning atmosphere. Areyou wondering how "nurture" plays into this encouragement picture? Itdoes, and quite nicely, too. " In Ephesians, Paul urges fathers to' bring up their children in the nurture and admonition (training and instruction-s- NlV)of the Lord. As teachers, we have been called to take a part in this training or this nurturing. The teacher's role in a child's education has been steadily increasing, especially in this age of the "let the teacher do the teaching" philosophy, where some parents nearly phase themselves out of the picture. This isbecornlng an age ofdiscipline problems and teachers complaining that some parents aren't doing their part of the teaching. Strict discipline and good control of the classroom is a must for effective teaching. This is something to think about, isn't it? Somethingas simple as encouragement can m~ke the difference between a well-disciplinedclassroom and a chaotic mess. Think about it, ttlen use it.
DEARDANA Dear Dana, Couldyou please tell me what is goingon with the mail? I can handle the late mail,but no mail on Saturday - let's get real. Many look forward to the mail everyday. It's our link to family and friends. It's bad enough when we can't be home. The mail is all we have. I think it's terrible that thisenjoyment is being taken away from us. Disturbed Dana says ... I talked at length wiih Mr.. Stabell concerning the questions you raised. The recent changes in campus mail service later delivery on weekdays and no delivery on Saturday - are direct results of service changes implemented by the New Ulmpost office. The policies at the post office were put into effect under the direction of the United States Postal Service and have the followingresults. Postal employees deliver mail to the campus. whereas in the past college maintenance employees picked up campus mail Monday through Saturday mornings. The change occurred because the post office now wants to charge DMLCa rather sizable fee for the use of a postal box at the post office. In lieu of the postal box. the post office will deliver campus mail to the business office as part of its regular delivery service. This delivery falls anywhere between the hours of 8:15 a,m. and 2:00 p.m., although it usually occurs between II:OO and 2:00.This is the reason behind the later mail service on campus. The reason for no Saturday mail is that the business office is not open Saturdays to receive the mail.
The following letter was, submitted, to D~arDana before the 1983 DMLCChristmas celebrations. The editors withheld its publication at that time to honor a request by the choral directors that it not be published until after the Christmas break.

STUDENT TEACHER EXPERIENCES by Jodi Stechmdnn Staff Writer
_
Once again it is time to hear the amusing anecdotes of returning student teachers. Vicki Kre"ilirewas givencharge ofthe first grade at St. Lucas in Milwaukee.On her last day. her first graders gave her a combination surprise going-away / Christmas party. While she opened the gifts one of the boys exclaimed, "MissKrenke.you should giveup teaching us and open presents all the' time instead!" , .• One day Tina Mohr and Brenda Bauer came to-St. Lucas to observe. Alter they left one of the boys asked Miss Krenke if Miss Bauer was Prof. Bauer'8 wile! .She explained to him that Brenda was it "Miss" and that Prof. Bauer had a different lady as his wife. Jeanne Matuszak, who taught grades three, to five in Brownsville. Wisconsin. learned quickly how easy it is to forget classroom routines. Atnoon the class would join together in the common table prayer and then return thanks. One day she led them by starting. "0 givethanks .... "Ittook a little 'while for the children to joIn in. She suddenly thought, "Oh no. I know they say another prayer but I can't think of how it starts!" She looked at the children and' nonchalantly said. "Today ;mmeone' -else , ~;I/~
may start the second prayer." No one raised their hand.so'shetold them. "Since no one wants to start. we just won't say the second prayer." As she walked down the aisle. puzzled faces were apparent. She)ound out why when a child bluntly said. "Miss Matuszak,you said the second prayer first." Wade Cohoon -also learned of the openness ',of little childien?' Wade taught ,sixthgrade in Stillwater.Minnesota. but was called upon to give a presentation on his stuffed raccoon and hides to the kindergarten children. After some discussion. one of the children raised his hand and asked where baby raccoons come from. Wade had a little trouble' answering as the kindergarten leacher was Iaughlng so hard that she had to I~ the room! Dawn Russert taught the second grade 'at St. Peter's in Fond du Lac.Wisconsin.Her class thought a lot of her. Just before she dismissed her class on the last day. one boy raised his hand shyly. When she called on him.he hesitated a moment and then asked. ".when are you going to have babies?" She was totally shocked and her mouth dropped open. She quickly explained that she would contlnued on page R

Dear Dana, The question has arisen among choir students. parents. and attenders of DMLC Christmas concerts regarding the Hallelujah Chorus. Whyhas itbeen omitted fromDMLC Christmases? Is it a matter of tradition? Has it been worn out over the years? 'Maybe to some it is an old, worn out tradition that should be forgotten. But to many who appreciate traditions such as "A Mighty Fortress" at Reformation, "I Know that My Redeemer Lives"at Easter, or "Silent Night" at Christmas. it is sorely missed as a tradition of DMLCChristmas concerts. Rather than ,dwelling on its tradition. though. the beauty of the piece should be stressed. It is an extremely moving and glorious praise to the Lord. People come from miles around to hear our concerts and look especially forward' to the Hallelujah Chorus. What can be done to bring this beautiful piece back to DMLCChristmases? Concerned Dana 8ays •.• Your question has been exPressed on numerous occasions by many people. Sentiments have been expressed for both sides of the issue in question. Several thoughts are behInd the decision to at least continued on page 7

We all know people who are courageous, valiant, brave, mighty and fearless - they are called heroes, They are people whom we look up to, and admire greatly:Through the eyes of Miss Deborah Bartsch's students at Nozomi School in Tsuchiura City:Japan", we see sixvery genuine heroes, Here are the' children's responses to the question, "Who Is your favorite hero and why?" My favorite hero is my dad because he is, strong. Sometimes he plays that he fights Jonny. For Christmas he digs out the Christmas tree. Katherine Haberkorn, Kindergarten
My favorite hero is the Lone Ranger. I like him because he is mysterious and saves peoples' lives.He risks his lifefor others. He
seems kind, but doesn't showIt, He's. a person who you can't figure'out. I like him because he wears a mask and keeps secrets. I wish I could know him in real life. Mona Johne, Grade 6 Jason Mc Auly is a hero to me. He's my cousin who lives inWisconsin.Last summer he saved my brother from drowning in the pool. Iwas on the divingboard and Isaw my brother was drowning. Itried to call for help but my voice would not come out. Iwas too scared. Jason saw me try to scream. Then Jason got Steven out of the water. I'm lucky" that Jason was there! Rebecca J, Haberkorn, Grade 5 My favorite hero is Tabuchi, a baseball ' player for the Seibu Lions.Ithink he's a hero because he broke his arm, but he hit a horne run in the Japan Series in the first game. The' , Seibu Lions won the Japan Series in 1983: The SeibuLionswon the time before, too. He is a real tall and,bigperson. He doesn't show off likesome baseball players. When I,!,atch

BRASS QUINTET SOUNDS LIKE GOLD, by Pete Schaewe Staff Writer
Those attending the Canadian Brass concert in Minneapolis, or anyone, who' ' encounters this group's music may be slightly surprised. Bach, Handel, Pachelbel and Frescobaldi for brass quintet? Purists wiUcringe. The brass quintet 1$, afti!r all, a: modem invention ~ a collection of instruments that in their current sizes, shapes, ranges, chromatic capabilities and timbres were unknown to the composers of the baroque era.' Besides, most of the baroque music this quintet plays was composed for the organ by men who were renowned virtuosos on that lofty instrument. Can a pair of trumpets, a French hom, a trombone and a tuba come close to representingjhe grandeur and glory of a work likethe Toccata and Fugue in D Minor or the reverent serenity of the chorale prelude Wachet auf? The Canadian Brass don't see why not. In fact, having played these works in concert' for several years, they have come' to view this collection of baroque masterpieces as not only the cream of their own repertoire but, in these arrangementsasthe best and most demanding music available to brass quintets today. Faced with a literature that included only a handful of great works when they came together, in 1970,the Canadian

In the second half, DMLC actually outscored their opponent by 12 points, but as time ran out, NWCcame out on top by a score of 78-72.

Henry led his North 'Central'teammates to an easy 8().48victory over the LANCERS. Henry had 31 points, 13 rebounds, and numerous blocked shots as his intimidating presence caused the LANCERS problems throughout the contest. DMLCended the game shooting only 30% (20 of 66) from the field. Many of the -LANCERS missed buckets were shots blocked-by Henry, or shotsthatwent awry as the smaller LANCERS were forced by the giant center to alter their shots. Tom Plath returned to the line-up to lead the LANCERS with 13points. Mark Koelpln had 12polnts and Phil Werth had 10.Dan Kaesmeyer added ,5 points and Joel Burmeister and Glenn Davis each had 4 to roulld out the LANCERscoring. Joel was the leading rebounder_with 10. "Sldp;' Noon' seemingly was a,one-man gang as he led the LANCERSin nearly every category of the junior varsity game, but it was, in point-of-fact, a tremendous team victory.

That's saying quite a bit for Joyce as she's stretching it when she says she's 5'3". Both Brian Williams and Roger Smith had to deal with a prickly situation at the same time.

G IS FOR GLOW
do, ~1'
by Judy Delikat Editor in Chief
Severalyears a~oThe Glow was popular. Itwas the story of twoyoungpeople who decided to get into shape and became involvedwith a group of older folkswho had developed a new way to stay young. This book was written at the beginning of the fitness craze that is still sweeping America. More and more Americans are trying to get info shape.Even DMLChas been hit by the fitness wave. Jogging.aerobics. swimming ... Some exercise to get into shape. others to keep their shape. and still others because it's something to do besides study. For whatever reason they _ have. everyone is caught up inthe push for physical fitness. Everyonewant~ the youthful glow that accompanies a healthy body. This glow carries a message. It tells the world you are physically fit.There are also other ways to glow: a face with happiness. a father with pride. a team with its glory. Each expresses its own message. - , .' '_. Have you ever examined your own glow?What message does it send to those who see it?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ show the world how diligent you are. You may worry about little things and show the world how much you care. Whatever the m<!ssageis. how you act. what you sav, and how you think makes an impression on other people. AsChristianswe also have another kind of glow: a spiritual glow.Others can tellwho we are by the kinds of lives we lead. As future teachers this should be especially important to us. Think about all those children who will look up to you with idolizingeves. Picture all the parents you willcome into contact with.What kind of impression willyour spiritual glowmake on them? The recipe for good health has always been "exercise and eat right."This also holds true for good spiritual health. Arms and legs won't get strong unless the muscles are repeatedly stretched. and spiritual limbs won't be strong unless the 'muscle .of faith Is exercised frequently. Good food is just as important. A healthy body can't survive 'on junk food. and a healthy faith can't live on scraps. It needs the meat and potatoes of God's Word, It's certainly something to keep in mind. Working for a healthy body is something to be proud of. It's important because it has to last for the rest of your life.But fruthis for eternity. Keep yours strong for a healthy spiritual glow you'll never be ashamed of.

DOSTOYEVSKY ACCO~D"NG
TO SHORT
by Jim Henrickson Guest Writer
On Monday. February 20. Bob Short, the, author of .The Gospel According to. Peanuts, appeared upon the DMLCcampus for a lyceum dealing with the writings of Fydor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky and the influence of these writings upon Christianity in Russia. Unfortunately. most of -those who appeared for the presentation were expecting to hear more about Christianity in Russia and less about Dostoyevsky. This misconception as to the subject of ihe lyceum left many listeners bewildered as they listened to Bob Short· reading. a prepared text and using a slide presentation of quotes. The presentation in itself was poorly done and did not seize the.attention of those who were already confused as to the topic. However. Bob Short did speak about a man' of great literary and philosophical importance inRussian history.
Dostoyevsky lived from 1821,1882 and wrote many great works. including The Brothers Karamazov and Notes From the Underground. Perhaps' many left this presentation feelingthat it had littlevalue because of their lack of previous knowledge concerning . Dostoyevsky. I hope the nature of this presentation will not cause those. who showed a' genuin'e interest in Russia' and Christianity within Russia to feel discouraged or apathetic towards this most important topic. Dostoyevsky's works are well worth reading and V>!e should not cast them aside due to one man's presentation or interpretation. Perhaps this lyceum' has shown the need for greater research of potential lyceum topics in order that theY may encourage and stimulate rather than stifle student thought due to the nature of the topic and the style of the presentation.
====================================== CORRECTION The correct dates for the WELSHandbell Festivalare Saturday. Mar~h31 and Sunday.April!. not Sunday March, 31 as mentioned in the article. "Ringing in the New Year."in the January/February issue of the Messenger. Their concert willbe presented to the gloryof God at 2:00 on Sunday afternoon in the DMLCgymnasium.

The participants then took an hour long break for dinner. There was a rehearsal of the mass handbell choir songs from 6:00,8:00. Following the rehearsal was a half hour of entertainment and recruitment. Several -.bell .choirs played at area churches for Sunday morningservices.Allof the bell choirs assembled in the LMUgymat I :30 to prepare for the Handbell Festival Concert at 2:00.

After thinkingabout it,l realized that there are only a fewprofessOrswho go out oftlleirway to be so helpful and friendlyto students, much less students who are doing a project or paper for another professor, I think that's sad.

Are'the communication lines really 9peti?Or)s it uncomfortable to pass a professor on the'sideWalk and say anything? If a professor and familyhappen to sit next to youin church. does he'say anything?

SAFETY SPELLS SENSE SPRING! GO FLY A KITE Ben Franklin is dead. So' might anyone who tries to repeat .Franklin's historic experiment with kite. lightning and key. Shocking but true. Franklin nearly bolted from this earth with his experiments. The National Safety Council says youngsters do try to repeat Franklin's experiment and more than one youngster has died as a result of it. Franklin's experiment aside, many youngsters are injured - some fatally- flying kites inthe usual way each year. The CDuncil
has all too many newspaper clippings and hospital accident reports to back up this claim. " . Accidents happen when youngsters. their eyes on their kites,walkright into the path of a motor vehicle. Others, using fine wire as string for their kites. receive bums from trying to rescue them after they tangle with electric wires. • Kiteshave a long and honorable tradition with a history that predates Christ by nearly 1.000years. But to be safe while flying,the Council advises these safety precautions: .','.',

Children can come up with the funniest , definitions for words. I found this to be true i~ my oWn experience of introducing new vocabulary words in the, readirig·lessons. Th~' word was "antics" (tricks) and the students were eager to respond: The child I called on answered, "Little insects that live in the ...iOods!"Another word was vexed (annoyed) and when asked to respond the student answered. "Thatstun you put on yournosewhen you have a cold!"Two other words that were given new definitions were the words "pasture" (field) when the child .answered, ''That guy that stands in the 'pulpit and preaches," and "Eau Claire"(city - in-Wisconsin) the student responded, "A dessert with pudding inside and' chocolate frosting!"

His whole program has been. through the.

Getting a Ph.D.in anything requires much hard study. Some of the requirements that Professor Boehlke had to fulfill include: twenty-eight semester hours in botany: fourteen semester hours inzoology:twentyeight semester hours in philosophy and history of science. science teaching methods. and research in science education: research in botanv (he did his on the infestation of wild parsnips): a semester of teaching experience at the Universityof 10wa;:3-Il9sition p;lP.e.rin science education . .'0tiJ~n ,!ief!:!i~i,;~~ere!l.e';';iv~writt~ •.... and oral examinations in botany and zoology: and a dissertation with an oral defense in front of six professors for two hours (and yOUthought taking a jurv was badl). Professor Boehlke's dissertation (all 144 pages) dealt with a teacher's cognitive preference and its relationship to his or her overt teaching behaviors. The cognitive preference was measured by a written test and the teaching behaviors were coded by classroom observers. Several DMLC students helped Professor Boehlke code data for his study. They were Cindy Mcinturff, Janet Koeller, Valerie Georg, Olin Tracy. and Teri Willenburg. Fifty.six trachers were observed 'three times each. Their behaviors (questioning.
p~iii
listening. scolding, etc.) were coded everv three seconds. The codes were analyzer! by
an Apple II program written bv Oaniel Boehlke, a student at Mankato State. The results of Professor Boehlke's study were interesting. He found that different teaching styles were exhibited hy teachers with different cognitive preferences (for all vou statistics buffs this was significant at O.OS3).He also found that there is a more distinct teaching style when a cognitive preference is distinct and that teachers react. differently to lessons or demonstra-
tions that "faiL" As you can see. the letters Ph.D. are not mere decorations. but a symbol of much hard work.· Professor Boehlke was not required to take these courses hut did it because he wanted to help his students by being a more prepared and knowledgeable teacher.

EDITORIAL RIS FOR ROCK hy Judy Delikat Editor-in-chiet Why would anyone write about rocks?! Can there be anything good to say about a rock? If a rock just new through your living room window. I suppose you couldn't find too much good to say, but I imagine that someone writing about the Grand Canyon could find a good deal to say about rocks. When you think about it. rocks have played an important part in the course of history. Battles have been fought over the Rock of Gibraltar. Evolutionists base their . theory on rock formations. Even the Bible makes reference to rocks. The rock at Marah provided water for some very thirsty Israelites. One NewTestament parable talks about building a house on a foundation of rock. The New Testament also mentions several instances where rocks provide a means of death.
FROM THE EDITORS The end ofanother school year brings to a close another volumn of the Messenger. Many thanks to those who helped td make this year's volumn successful: the Messenger Staff,Professor Koestler, the guest writers. and especially Mrs. Lynn Boesch who spent many hours typing copy. It was time well spent and greatly appreciated. With this graduation class, the staff is losing several, very valuable members.
You see, rocks are important. Some people have rock collections. Others buy a "piece of the rock" with Prudential. The Catholic Church claims to be built on a rock called Peter. It seems that everyone has a rock. by Michele Ceralo Dowe have a rock? Youbetwedo! Ours is Staff I-l(riter the gospel.

IANCER NINE OFF TO ROCKY START by Dick Goodall Sports Editor An error-plagued Lancer baseball team . has gotten off to a rocky start in defense of its UMCC title. The .young Lancers have committed twenty-seven errors in their first ten games. The pitching staff has been hit pretty hard. and that, combined with the fielding errors. has proved the Lancer's undoing. Freshmen pitchers Bill Skaer and Greg Birkholz have recorded the only Lancer victories with 11-0and 6-4wins over St. Paul Bible.DMLCnow has a record of 2 wins and 8 losses, and is 0-4 in conference

DMLC OUT OF STEAM?
BOOK BUYBACK! May 14May 18 continued from page 1 John Kolander, who is the principal of Samuel Lutheran School in Marshall, Minnesota, was responsible for setting up the Forensics Fair. In past years there were Forensics Fairs held at individual grade schools, but this year it was decided 10 hold one for many schools here at DMLC.The reason for this was to give the children a chance 10 meet children from other schools and for them to become more acquainted with DMLC.Mr, Kolander commented that he thought the afternoon went very well, and that Ihe CollegiateCouncil did a finejob of running the event. The Forensics Fairwill hopefully be held here al DMLC;'on an annual !)asis. ._~ '.' _
