(The following story is Part One of a two-part article concerning the recent European Study Tour sponsored by DMLC.) "This was one chance in a million and I couldn't let it go by _ even if it did put me in debt! " With that statement, Linda Schaller expressed the sentiments of a number of DMLC students who joined Professors T. Hartwig and Arnold Koelpin on a European Study Tour this past summer.

Representing this year's freshman class are Kristine Jeske, Jill Schupmann, Jason Nelson, and Greg Thiesfeldt. Sophomores elected to the Council were the following: Sharon Hamula, Candace Zimpelrnann, Eric Troge, and Jonathan Winkel. Voted to the Council as junior class representatives were Gail Kitzmann, Maggie Rosin, Jim Buege and Doug FiJlner. Two new senior representatives were selected to replace Phil Potratz and Dan Schmal, who took emergency calls. The two new members from the senior class are Ronald Glock and Steven Westphal. The officers of Collegiate Council hope that these new representatives will help "make the Collegiate Council a

The rough plans for the tour were directed through the Academic Council, faculty, and Board of Control, and finally approved as a complete six-credit course with 30 hours of lectures and 60 hours of "lab experience. " A high official in the German foreign travel agency wrote to Prof. Koelpin before he left that, since she was so Impressed with the tour as being unique and worthwhile, she had kept her flllger specifically on it while it was being arranged by the company, and wished them a good trip.

I'm a sophomore, and I'm nineteen, which means that I am relatively inexperienced in just about everything, so what I have to say may range anywhere from the depths of inanity to the heights of mediocrity. You may read what I have to say, and agree or disagree. Or you may not read what I have to say, In which case it won't make any difference at all. That's how I find things nowadays, In a "could-go-either-way" situation. I am told that that's how it's always been. Whatever.

"Good grief! The Union's a mess again! Look at all those ripped up magazines and newspapers - what a mess! - what do they have janitors around here for?" Actually, the janitors are here to maintain the buildings against the everyday unavoidable dirt and grime and wear and tear that is common to every Institution. They are not here to pick up after today's students who are such victims .of today's "disposable" society that they destroy and litter to the point of being nauseating.

Hair has always been a bone of contention around here, though both sides of the issue have been quiet for some time now. The length of a person's hair is a function of how often It is cut and how close to one's head it is cut. Thus, if x equals the frequency of haircuts, and y equals the degree of the haircut itself, the f(x) (read: the f of x, or the function ofx) plus the f(y) (likewise)equals a quantity, u. Example: If x equals "every six months" and y equals "down to the shoulders," f(x) +f(y) equalsu, which In this case stands for Ugly. . Atleast that's what my dad says. He also says that short hair is good for the control of lice and other vermin, which is an attribute of dubious value here, where, we are fortunate enough to have modern sanitary facilities.

ready to go; I'm standing here outside your door; I ha te to wake you up to say good-bye. But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn; The taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn, Already I'm so lonesome I could cry." These were some of the first words I heard as I entered DMLC campus life. When my parents left, I felt a deep feeUng of loneliness, knowing I wouldn't see them for months. The first week of our new world as "big" college students was spent in orientation. We learned what to do, and what not to do. We began classes and started to feel somewhat at home. We began to sense the real reason for our being here. Not only were we going to get an education ourselves, but when we completed our four years here, we too would join Christ's flock of shepherds to teach His lambs. ThIs feeling especially hit me during the chapel periods. My fellow students attended chapel regularly, not because they had to, but because they wanted to. It's a feeUng I can't describe. Now we, the freshmen, are really becoming Involved In the activities at DMLC. I aiready feel at home and can't believe I ever thought of going to any other school but DMLC. The only words I can say to describe my first Impressions are - it's great!

Luther Arrives The library lobby has recently been enhanced by the gift of an original statue of Dr. Martin Luther. The donors of the statue are Mrs. Paul Schwan and her children in memory of their husband and father, Mr. Paul T. Schwan of Marshall, Minnesota. Carved from white oak, the statue weighing approximately 1500pounds and standing about seven and a half feet high, shows Luther standing in meditation behind a study lectern of his .day, On the lectern is a Bible with the inscription, "The just shall live by faith." The lectern is narrowed a bit to reveal more of the person. On its front side is engraved Luther's emblem of a rose. The other two sides have inscribed on them a cross. The statue was commissioned to be done after members of the Building-Planning Committee had investigated various possibilities. Their concern lay with the size, the location for the statue, the materials from which it should be made, as well

as with its being an original piece of work. After these things were determined, the Schnitzelbank Shop of Frankenmuth, Michigan, was given the contract. This shop has in its employ a well-known woodcarver, Mr. George Keilhofer, who practiced his craft in a town noted for its craftmanship in woodcarving, Oberammergau, Germany. Mr. Keilhofer, together with his employers, Mr. and Mrs. Keller, personally brought and set up the statue on October 4. Because it graces the lobby, every person entering the library will face it, reminding him of the diligence and faithfulness of one whose concern is also theirs - the dissemination of the Word of salvation. Lest we forget, some of the donors of this statue, Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Schwan of Marshall, made it possible for this statue to remain under excellent temperature control. They donated the airconditioning unit for the library.

"): take lots of pictures and buy the souvenir books in each place to keep as visual aids for teaching; and take a fair amount of grubby clothes to be comfortable· for traveling in buses. "Spend less time shopping and more time meeting people," offered Grace specifically. "Pray about twice as much as you think you need to. Always be open and ready for any situation and think of it as a time to witness for Christ." (The conclusion to this twopart article will feature information on the state of the Church in Europe as the tour members saw it, propaganda behind the Iron Curtain, Europe's attitude toward Americans and America, and a look at what it was like to be in Luther Land.)

NEW FACES on the DMLCfaculty are Mr. Paul Boehlke and Miss Pat Mrotek. .

DMLC Welcomes Mrotek, Boehlke to Faculty Opening Service on September 11, 1972, marked the beginning of a new school year on the DMLC campus for returning students, faculty, new students, and two new faculty members, Miss Pat Mrotek and Prof. Paul Boehlke. Miss Pat Mrotek is called to serve as an instructor in the college women's physical education department. Besides her weekly duties as an instructor, Miss Mrotek is assisting Miss Post in coaching all of the women's interscholastic sports. Miss Mrotek has had experience playing both interscholastic volleyball and basketball, and she lists' volleyball as her favorite of all the interscholastic sports. Miss Mrotek is a 1969 graduate of DMLC. Prior to coming to DMLC,she spent one semester at LaCrosse State University and two years at Wisconsin Lutheran College. After her graduation, she taught fifth and sixth grade at Bethlehem Lutheran School in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin,

until this past spring. This past summer she began her graduate work at Mankato State and will continue studying there to eam her degree in physical education. Miss Mrotek had many impressions about her first year of teaching here at DMLC. Generally she feels it will be a hard year because she will have to discover her abilities in this field, try different techniques with the students, and learn where all the equipment is kept. She hopes, too, that even though it will be a hard year, she will enjoy her work here at DMLC. Inher spare time Miss Mrotek enjoys participating in all different types of sports, but she is most active in tennis and bowling. She also enjoys making friends and sewing, and her special interest is to teach religion. Prof. Boehlke Like Miss Mrotek, Prof. Paul Boehlke was also a former student here at Luther. After his graduation in 1961, he taught all eight grades at Grace Lutheran in Goodhue, Minnesota, from 1961~. While at Goodhue, he began his work in science at Winona State College, and he married Jeanette Hemker, a 1962 graduate of DMLC. Today they have four sons: Daniel, Joel, Philip, and Andrew who range in age from one to seven years. After teaching in Goodhue, Prof. Boehlke took a call to St.

John's, Jefferson, Wisconsin, where he taught mostly sixth grade, but also did some departmentalized teaching. During this time Prof. Boehlke also completed his studies at Winona State College where he received a M.S. degree. In 1968 Prof. Boehlke joined the faculty at Northwestern Prep in Watertown, Wisconsin, where he taught until this spring. While at Northwestern, Prof. Boehlke received a stipend from the National Science Foundation to study at Union College In Schenectady, New York. At Union Prof. Boehlke majored in chemistrY and minored in physics. For his work there he received a M.S.T., Master of Science for Teachers, degree. Here at DMLC Prof. Boehlke team-teaches biology with Prof. Swantz, and he also teaches two biology and two physical science labs. Outside of class Prof. Boehlke takes an active interest in electronics and has built himself a calculator and a radio. His other hobbies Include canoeing and playing tennis. In reflecting on his first year back here at Luther, Prof. Boehlke had several comments to make. He was amazed at all the changes that have taken place on the campus since he left. There were so many changes in fact, that he said Luther is "not the same school at all." He also said that teaching was "real great" and that it was "very much fun" to work with Prof. Swantz.

Emergency Teachers The following students from the Senior.class have accepted emergency calls. They are teaching for one year in those schools in our Synod which were unable to fill the vacancies on their faculties by fall. Next fall these students will return to Luther's campus to complete their education. Student

Band Greets Members at Autumn Picnic On Thursday evening, September 21, the DMLC bands held a picnic at F1andrau State Park to acquaint the freshmen band members with the rest of the band. Through a variety of different games and a picnic supper, this purpose was accomplished. Interesting games that teachers might find useful were played, such as animal acquaintance. In this game each person present was given the name of an animal. After shutting his eyes, he began making his animal sound. When he heard a sound that resembled his, he had found his partner. In a relay race, one bent over an upright baseball bat, twirled very quickly around it five .times, ran a short distance, and then ran back to tag the next receiver. After the usual picnic supper came a nature scavenger hunt.

Among the items that were sought were frogs, insects, leaves, and pine cones. It was a

After the singing, Mr. Luedtke, the band director, thanked the commit tee for their work in organizing the picnic and the freshmen for coming.

Organized Football Returns to DMLC Lancers vs. Trojans On Sept. 16, 1972, organized football returned to Dr. Martin Luther College after a long absence. An estimated crowd of over one thousand was on hand to see the Lancers take on their arch-rivals, Northwestern College of Watertown, Wis. Battling greater size, nurnbers, and experience, the Lancers fought hard and well during the first quarter. Going into the second quarter the score stood tied at ().(). Coach Dennis Gorsline had Just 23 players dressed for the Lancer's first game. With so few players, many were obliged to stay in on both offense and defense. This coupled with the 80-degree temperature soon began to take its toll among the Lancers. The second and third quarters proved the Lancers' undoing as Northwestern's depth and numbers prevailed. The Iinal score stood at 3~ for the Trojans who were led by the running of Mark Toepel and the passing of quarterback Steve Ehlke. DMLC's defense showed promise the entire first quarter

and their offense moved the ball well during the fourth as well as the first quarter. Sophomore Tom Hunter led the team at quarterback the whole game while Jay Schwall, a sophomore, picked up the most yards. Mike Haase, also a sophomore, led the defense with his hustle, intercepting one pass and making some good tackles. With 7:20 left in the game, the Lancer's Steve Hahnke sustained .a concussion while tackling a Trojan pass receiver. On the advice of his doctor, Hahnke hung up his cleats for the season. Lancers vs. Braves On Sept. 23, the Dr. Martin Luther Lancers met the Sioux Falls Braves in the Lancers' second contest of the season. The Lancers failed to register in the scoring column for the second consecutive game as this contest ended at 58-0. The Braves were big and came in numbers and simply ran over the Lancers. The Lancers only scoring threat came when Sophomore Eric Troge picked up a fumble and raced to the four-yard line

before being tackled. But there were only four seconds left in the half and the Lancers failed to take the pigskin across the goal line on their single play from scrimmage. The Lancers managed to gain only 56 total offensive yards to the Braves' 491offensive yards. The second period was the Lancers' downfall as the Braves romped for 28 points in that quarter.

------The Lancers are gaining experience with each and every football game they play. They have shown that they have the stuff it takes to make a football team. All they have to do Is put it together. The experience the Lancers gained in this game was not quite enough to bring them into the scoring column in their next game.

The fans were proud of their team and gave them a standing ovation as they left the field for the final time. The final event of DMLC's Homecoming was held in the gymnasiwn. The banquet began at about 6:30 P.M. and was attended by students as well as faculty members. After the meal was served, and the tables were cleared, the entertainment for the evening began. Coach Gorsline and Prof. Voecks, DMLC's first football coach, were the featured speakers of the evening. Coach Gorsline recapped the 1972 season and then paid tribute to each member of the team. Coach Gorsline's speech was followed by speeches of several members who reminisced about what playing football was like in the "good old days." Prof. Voecks finished this part of the program with comments about football at DMLC today and paid a compliment to the students by commenting on the "wondetfu1 spirit" displayed at the games. Mter the speakers finished, the specials awards were given by Pep Club President OIarlotte Heidenrich. The most prized of these awards, the winner of the float competitton, was awarded to the freshman class for their float, "The Spirit of '76 in '72." Singing entertainment was provided by various groups of girls from the student body.

Two freshmen girls sang three selections, two of which they composed themselves. They were followed by a group of eight sophomore girls who really put a lot of bounce and enthusiasm into their songs and delighted the crowd with their antics. The last bit of enterlainment 'was provided by Karen Gallert and Mary Lawrenz who sang a duet about one another. The final touch to the banquet and all the events of' Homecoming weekend was provided when the crowd sang the school song written over thirty years ago when a football team ptayed its games in a cow pasture behind the boiler house.

The second half was performed by the SCB, which contains about 80 members. This half provided the exhibiting of talents for new students. Jim 'Grasby, Joe Beatrice, and Paul Kassulke presented a trumpeters' piece in "Buglers' Holiday."

DMLC MESSENGER

Students Visit Luther Land on European Tour By JeDlse TempUn (Part one of this two-part

series dealt with the DMLC European Study Tour as a whole - people, places, and experiences. This article conclndes coverage of the tour by presenting more of the at¡ tltudes and impressions tour members had of Europe Itself and Cbr!stlanlty In Europe.) One may wonder If a 'Lutheran visiting the very places where Luther lived and worked is uncomfortable with the feeling that he. is there ahnost worshiping a saint for whom his religion is named. However, according to several members of the European Study Tour who visited East Germany this summer, the opposite happened. "Being in East Germany made all of Luther's activities seem real and you could picture Luther as a man," said Linda Schaller. "They made him human - but not a saint - yet great." "You could appreciate the strength of his convictions," added Ralph Koch, "especially when you go to Rome and see howbig the Vatican is. You can see how much it took for him to stand up against its power." Cindy Tessmer found her Lutheran heritage so much more a part of her now. "Because you go here you just think, 'Finally! I'll see the things I've been hearing about.' But when you're there you sense a closeness with Luther in thinking of what Luther went through, how he really believed the Gospel and how God used him. Just knowing he was there made it so meaningful." CHRISTIANITY Although Lutheranism had its beginning in East Gennany, Christianity today in that country and around Europe, too, is much different than it was in Luther's time. "The Communist attitude toward Christianity is the same as Christianity's attitude toward pagans," stated Prof. Theodore Hartwig, one of the tour leaders. "They aren't going to burn Wittenberg or remove relics or mementos that belong to MartIn Luther and the Refonnation. They don't pay attention to it." Prof. Arnold Koelpln, the second tour leader, said, "In the West, the state collects taxes from the people. If you're Lutheran, then the Lutheran Olurch gets 10 per cent of the tax take, and the Olurch has officers in political departments. In the East, it's dif¡ rerent-: Freedom there is more

'window dressing.' There are no more state churches - they were forced to 'de-politicize.' You can't overtly 'fight' the Establishment - but yet they aren't covert Christians. They're biding their time for a return to real religious freedom." As an example, he spoke about. seeing an East Gennan wedding. "In the East at St. Thomas Olurch, there was a wedding taking place. It was very fonnal. I listened very carefully and it was a lovely and solid Scriptural sermon. The pastor's son was getting married He spoke in that sennon about the Christian bearing the cross - and allusions to their life were obvious." Carol Hartwig was able to talk to several people in East Germany about freedom of religion. "I asked a young boy in Leipzig, about 17 or 18 years old, about the churches, and he didn't belong to one. He said most of the weddings weren't held in churches. He said you can helong to a church and still get promoted. But a young man (about 25) in Halle studying for the Lutheran ministry said it wasn't true, and that if you are a Christian you don't really have a chance to be advanced and get high up. He'd been in prison and tried to get away from East Gennany at 14, but he was either caught or went back. He had a really hard life. If you compare the two, I feel the first one was influenced by propaganda - he's been so ingrained with it he doesn't know." WITNESSING Two unique opportunities to witness for Christ arose in East Germany for the tour members. One Sunday morning in Rothenburg the group had the chance to have almost a complete service outside in a park on the edge of town. Not only did people stop to listen to them, but Grace Heller reported that there was a young man who stood by and heard the entire service. Afterwards, several students went over to talk to him about the faith. A second opportunity came in Eisleben, Luther's birth place, when the group was visiting St. Andrew's Church. Prof. Koelpin described what happened "The organ was playing and, since the doors were open, a group of children came. The little tikes gathered in the doorway because they were curious and we invited them in. They said they were told not to go in (by their parents) and I talked to them about church."

"Being inEastGermany and seeing the contrast between Luther and East Germany now made you appreciate the Bible. Many people over there now have never seen a Bible. The contrast made you feel fortunate to be in America and be a Lutheran," said Unda. EAST AND WEST How does East Gennany compare to the Christianity found in Italy and Europe? According to Prof. Hartwig, "With the little we saw of Christianity, It is preoccupied with the here and now. It's a religiosity concerned with outward forms, It's been in Europe a good long time. There's a superficiality about it - a plastered over Christianity that creeps in unawares." Prof .. Koelpin stated, "All places technically have freedom of religion. In Italy, by and large, you have the Roman Catholic Church and yet the question was asked why there were so many Communists. They are church members but very passive and they don't go along with the Communist doctrine on religion. They admire Russia because they hear Russia works for the workers. But one Italian said, 'The Italians as a people are looking for something 'new' to happen and they are looking to America for it.' " (Continued on page 5)

Definition of a Teacher By Cathy Ulrich

Between the innocence of infancy and the dignity of maturity, children fall under the influence of a group of people called teachers. Teachers come in assorted sizes, weights and colors. They have various interests, hobbies, religions and bellefs; but they share one creed: to help each child reach the highest possible degree of personal development. Teachers are a composite. They must have the energy of a harnessed volcano, the efficiency of an adding machine, the memory of an elephant, the understanding of a psychiatrist, the wisdom of Solomon, the tenacity of a spider, the patience of a turtle trying to cross a freeway at rush-hour, the decisiveness of a general, the diplomacy of an ambassador and the financial acumen of a Wall Street wizard. They must remember always that they teach by word but mostly by precept. Teachers may possess beauty, or grace or skill; but mostly they must possess love - a deep abiding love of, and respect for, children, individually, and as a class. They must love the young girl who has the song of a bird, the squeal of a pig, the stubbornness of a mule, the antics of a monkey, the spryness of a grasshopper, the curiosity of a cat, the slyness of a fox and the mysterious. mind of a woman. They must also cherish the young man who is inconsiderate, bothersome and an intruding bUndle of noise with the appetite of a horse, the digestion of a sword swallower, the energy of an atom bomb, the lungs of a dictator, the

imagination of Paul Bunyan, the shyness of a violet, the audacity of a steel trap and the enthusiasm of a firecracker. Teachers must teach many things: reading, writing, arithmetic, spelling, geography, music, art, health, and in our case, religion. They must also manage during their six and one half hours to teach manners and morals to children whose parents have despaired of the task in their seventeen and one half hours. Teachers are Truth with chalk dust in their hair, Beauty with an aching back, Wisdom searching for bubble gum, and the Hope of the future with papers to grade. Teachers must possess many abilities. They must not mind explaining for the tenth time the intricacies of two-place multiplication to the whole class, then explaining it again to the one child who wasn't listening. They must learn to judge between encouraging and pushing a child. They must sense what decisions to make and which must be made by the child. Teachers must .remain steadfast without being in. flexible, sympathetic without being maudlin, living without being possessive. They must live in childhood without becoming childish; to enjoy its great joys, satisfactions, Its genuine delights, while understanding its griefs, irritations, embarrassments and harassments. Teachers must do all of this while worrying about how to pay the utility bills, what to have for supper, whether the baby has the chicken-pox, how Mrs. Smith will react to Billy's

low grades, where to get the extra money for summer school, and who took the dime from Jane's purse. For this, we pay them more than the garbage man, but less than the garage mechanic; more than the grocery clerk, but less than the postman; more than the ditch-digger, but less than the trucker. The most amazing thing about teachers Is that they wouldn't trade jobs with anyone ... They really like to teach!

Judo Club Holds Clinic On Saturday, November 11, the DMLC student body was privileged to observe a judo clinic sponsored by the Judo Club. The primary purpose of the cllnic was to teach new throws and techniques. Judo Club members were the participants, but everyone was invited to come and observe.

Lancerettes Open 1972 Season On October 5, the Dr. Martin Luther College Lancerette's hosted Southwest State for the first volleyball game of the 197273 season. The DMLC B team won handily, 15-7, 15-13,with Lynn Thumme having an outstanding serving game. The A matches provided much excitement for the fans, with DMLC fmally winning the match, 13-15, 15-13, 8-15, 15-5, and 15-1. The whole A team played a good game orice they became accustomed to each other. Sue Post, the Lancerette coach, was pleased with the team's effort in their first game. Lancerettes vs. Concordia On October 11, the DMLC Lancerette's volleyball team traveled to St. Paul to face Concordia. The B match provided little competition for DMLC, as proved by the scores, 15-0,and 15-5. Cindy Van Driessche

Spirit of '72 Prevails Despite Disappointing Loss By Jim Hewitt Itdoesn't takea winning team for a school body and team to have spirit. The Lancers proved that Saturday, Nov. 4th at their first football homecoming. The theme for the homecoming was historic firsts, and one of them was the first time a football team from our college ever played a team ranked nationally (third, to be exact). This alone should have cast a pall over the campus. However the classes all worked hard on their floats, turning in some very good displays, and the football team . acted as if they were playing the preps. The team came on the field fired up to play a football game and though the score was a lopsided, 56-0, the Lancers played a game they can be proud of. Doane College proved bigger, more experienced, and a little more talented than the Lancers,

but the Lancers were far more spirited. The loss can not be iJlamed on anything that the Lancers did wrong, because as Coach Corsline. said at the homecoming banquet, we executed, we hit, and we played hard. .' Doane just had too much. They had a balanced offense and a very good defense which held lAIther to 96 yards total offense. Doane scored 14 points in the first quarter, 27 in the second, 7 in the third, and 8 in the fmal quarter. Despite the score, the Lancer defense played well. The defensive secondary picked off quite a few passes, with Dave Menges a standout in his last game here at Luther. All in all, at the close of the first season here, it would seem that the Lancers accomplished most of their goals for the year. Many of the younger players got the experience that they badly needed, and the team

established a pride in the student body that hopefully will last in the years to come.

First Season's Losses Provide Experience Dr. Martin Luther College's football team traveled near Omaha, Nebraska, Oct. 14, to play Dana College. The first quarter proved to be the Lancers' undoing as Dana scored touchdowns the first three times they had the ball. Dana rolled up 187 yards rushing and 78 passing in the first half while DMLC had 139 yards for the entire game. Dana added two more TO's to make the final score 36-0. The Lancer defense showed its mettle in the second half, allowing only 16 yards rushing and 71 passing to tum in their best effort of the year. The lopsided score belies the fact that Luther showed great promise. For a team that is composed mainly of first and second year men, the defensive effort of the second half was impressive. The first quarter set the stage for the game as both teams moved the ball but falled to score. Luther finally scored their first touchdown of the year in the second quarter as they moved the ball 64 yards in nine plays, capped by Jay Schwall's 43-yard TD run. Maranatha failed to score after tbe kick-off and punted to Luther, who promptly fumbled, giving the ball to Maranatha on the ten-yard line. Inspired, the Lancer defense allowed five yards in three plays and Maranatha had to settle for a field goal that was very nearly blocked by Luther. The Lancers' offense finally got untracked against

Maranatha, although it scored only six points. For the fl1"st time this year the offense had more total yards than the opposition. Maranatha later scored on a six-yard pass making the score 10-6.The second half failed to see any points scored and that score ended up as the final. The Lancers' defense turned in a very balanced attack as six men had a total of six tackles or more apiece. The offense was led by the running of Schwall, who accounted for 195 yards rushing, and by the timely passing of Tom Hunter, who passed twice to Steve Thiesfeldt for 25 yards and once to freshman Bob Dretske for 24 yards. The Lancers traveled to Sheboygan, Wisconsin, to take on the bigger and more experienced Lakeland Muskies. As has been the case so many times this year, Luther was again outclassed although they played their hardest. Lakeland put 36 points on the board in the first quarter alone to bury the Lancers. Mainly because .a good share of the starting offensive team became injured during the game, the Lancer offense never got off the ground - except for one drive in the second quarter. Luther took the second half kick-off and drove to' the Lakeland five-yard line. Losing the ball on downs, they couldn't get it across the goal line, however. The Muskies rolled to a final score of 54-0 to close out the Lancers' season on the road. " t"

played well for the winners. In the A match the tables were turned however, for Concordia upset the Lancerettes for the first time since their rivalry began. The scores were 8-15, 15-6, and .16-14 in overtime. The whole team lacked togetherness and the many mental errors were costly.

Lancerettes VB. Southwest State On October 17, the DMLC volleyball team traveled to Marshall, Minnesota, to take on Southwest State College. The 'B' team had a hard time handling the serves of SMSC and lost many points that way. The Lancerettes also had their own hard time serving, and this didn't help the situation. The whole team looked scared, and the final scores of ~!5 and 6-15 showed they didn't play very well. The 'A' team, however, won quite easily, 15-11,15-10,and 152. According to Coach Sue Post, the Lancerettes worked together very well lit a good team effort. The serving game improved asthe games wore on and only three girls had to serve the last game. The team regained some of. their lost confidence in one another with this victory. Lancerettes vs. Carlton On October 20, the Lancerettes entertained the earlton College women's volleyball team. DMLC's 'B' team easily defeated the Carlton girls in two games, 15-6and 15-3. Ruth Sill led the Lancerette attack with many well-placed spikes. The 'A' games went the full route with Carlton coming out on the top after five hard-fought games. The first game found DMLCon the short end of a 15-13 score, despite the fine saves and serves of Sharon Griep, who helped rally the team from a 5-9 score to a 13-10 lead. The Lancerettes easily won the second game, 15-2, as Gloria Lohmlller served thirteen consecutive points. The third game also was won by Luther, 15-13,as June Frank chalked up eight points on serves. The final two games seemed to show the Lancerettes tiring as they lost 15-6and 15-9. The team is now 2-2.

Ski Enthusiasts Plan Excursion to Colorado As you know, Colorado is THE place to go If you are a ski enthusiast. You can't get much more enthusiastic than the members of DMLC's SkI Club; therefore, they are going. A nine-<iayexcursion will see them spending seven clays on some of THE biggest slopes, such as the Vail, Brechenridge, and Keystone. The SkI Club was organized to stimulate interest in a fascinating sport. The fact that a club as a group gets cut rates on equipment and lessons is an added incentive. For example, for approximately $7.00one can spend a whole clay at the Mankato ski resort - complete with lodge, fireplace, good friends, and, of course; a couple of slopes. Weekend trips are also in the making with La Crosse, Minneapolls-St. Paul, Upper Michigan, and South Dakota cited as prospective ski areas. Interested students are encouraged to attend Ski Club meetings or the ski movies which will be presented to the

student body. SkI Club officers are Larry Rogien, Roger Wolff, Joann Schwartz, and Ginny Rakos.

Students Debate HeligiousTopics no membership roster," said Beth Janke, one of the organization's founders. "It's sort of on the idea of Junto - we want to keep it very informal." Invitations to the meetings are only by posters, through the CamPUS Memo, and by word-ofmouth. Dean Huebner, the group's advisor, said that FORTRESS is currently waiting for confirmed dates from Prof. Joel Gerlach and Rev. M. J. Lenz as future speakers. Prof. Gerlach from Mequon will discuss the charismatic movement, and Rev. Lenz, currently the second vice-president of the Synod, will explain the church's use of the colloquy. . ' Not only are the meetings informal with speakers and buzz groups, but the organization is informal as well. A Permanent Topics Committee of three or' four students is formed at the end of the school year, and the committee selects a moderator for the coming school year at the last FORTRESS meeting in spring. The PTC will post suggestions for topics in advance, and seek volunteers to assist with the preparing of the topic for the next FORTRESS meeting. Topics suggested for future discussion .include speaking in tongues, spiritualism, different religions. in comparison to Christianity; abortion, evangelism on campus, and guitar music in the church. On Sunday, January 14, Dean Huebner met with the students to discuss the role of women in the church.

With the rmal acceptance of its statement of objectives by the Student Services Council, the Religious Topics Discussion Group is officially announcing its new title: FORTRESS. The name stands for Forum of Religious Topics: Regarding Essential Scriptural Subjects. Last year a nucleus of students began to plan a way for others to come together at specific times to study the Bible and discuss current religious topics. A group met a few times, but the organization wasn't official until the Student Services Council adopted their statement of objectives shortly before semester break. Briefly, the highlights of the objectives for FORTRESS include a foundation built on Christ, from Whom flows the fellowship of brothers and sisters. FORTRESS is an expression of such Christian fellowship. Its three-fold aim includes 1.) holding discussions in a group manner for mutual edification and strengthening of faith; 2.) pursuing topics and discussions brought up in academic religion classes but which are unable to be thoroughly discussed; and 3.) looking to the professors of the college for guidance in the discussion, but always keeping the entire Scriptures as the only norm for faith and life. All students and professors are welcome to come to FORTRESS meetings which will be held approximately once every month on a Sunday afternoon in the town girls' room \nHlllv\ew basement. "We have

Ms. Tiltmon admitted In her lecture that she is not as much an advocate of the women's liberation movement as she Is a welfare protest organizer. Using herself, a welf are recipient and former laundress, as an example, she traced the emergence of the new black woman. She discussed the two white stereotypes of the black woman - the Aunt Jemima type and the bad woman - and showed how the new black woman is overcoming these myths and jo1n1ngthe rest of the blacks In a common purpose: establishing an identity of their own. Perhaps the most popular speaker at the conference was Dr. Mary Daly, who received standing ovations even for her comments on the - other speakers' lectures. All attending agreed that she was also the most radical.

New VIm, Minn.

F.A.C.E.B. - signs have been proclaiming. this event for weeks, but what is it? It's the First All Campus Entertainment Bonanza. On March 10, both the Academy and College students. will provide a wide display of talent for everyones enjoyment. The Entertainment Bonanza is an attempt to get as many students as possible involved in a campus activity. This year the college and academy are "striving for unity" and according to one Collegiate Council members, "the Entertainment Bonanza is a great way to get the kids together for a fun evening." Hosting the Bonanaza will be emcees Deb Stellick, an academy senior, and Jason

Snow Carnival Brightens Campus A snowstorm on Tuesday, February 13, was an appropriate beginning for the 1973 Snow' Carniviik~Preparations for this big event actually began' weeks in advance when the committees were Chosen in the Collegiate Council to organize the various events which were to take place. During this time also, the theme, "Tribute to Disney," was chosen. Two weeks before Carnival began the juniors chose seven girls from within their class as the queen candidates. These candidates were introduced to the student body during Convocation Hour five days before the beginning of Carnival. At this time each candidate gave comical tidbits of information about one another's 'Iives -and facts about the various activities whichwere to take place during Carnival week. Queen competition was tne first event to be held during the week. The various classes also presented their skits on this night. The night of fun began with a short monologue by the Mistresses of Ceremonies, Linda Dew and Sharon Dobbertin, better known as Dew and Dimples. The first skit to be presented was the seniors' "Lutherella," a fractured fairy tale version of Disney's own "Cinderella." For their efforts they received the second place award. The first place award went to the junior skit called "Snowflake," which was a conglomeration of various scenes and characters from Disney's well-known movies and a touch of Snow Carnival thrown in. The student body judged the girls on the basis of their performance that evening. The Candidates were rated with a ten point scale on such things as poise, friendliness, and spirit. While tbey were judged, the

candidates added to the fun and entertainment by singing three numbers. Each girl was also .given'tM,"opportunity" to talk .her way out of a fictional impromtu situation involving one faculty member. The results of the judging were announced to the student body following the game on Wednesday evening. The Lancer game against Dordt College of Iowa on Wednesday evening proved to be a gruelling test of endurance between the two teams. The pace was always fast. and the pressure was always on. The Lancers never lost faith in their team and ecstatically cheered their team OIL toa 7S.72 victory. About fifteen minutes after the game, the candidates were formally presented in alphabetical order with their escorts to the students body. The announcement of the queen and 'runners-up was made by the co-chairwomen of the queen competition, Kiki Johnson and Marsha Lange. . Second Runner-up Jeneane Kock and her escort Jim Petermann were announced first, followed by the announcement of the First Runner-up Jane Jaehnig and her escort Steve Thiesfeldt. There was a tense silence as the crowd waited for the announcement of the 1973 Snow Carnival Queen, Nona Weyer, who was escorted by Collegiate Council President, John Bauer. Other members of the court included Janet Huebner escorted by Ernie Knobloch, Maggie Rosin escorted by John Stark, Kathy Schuetze escorted by Mike Plamann, and Sue Walther escorted by Ron Glock. In spite of the cold weather on Thursday night the toboggan races were held as scheduled. Approximately . five teams entered the "four-man" race down Hermann Hill. The basis for judging was the length of

time it took the team to cover a set distance. To the embarrassment of some, this race was .won by a' team of¡ sophomore girls. The two-man race which followed was also taken by the sophomore class, but this time the participants were men. Friday night there was a special Pep Rally for the game against North Central Bible College scheduled for Saturday. Jim Petermann, senior center for the Lancers, spoke to the student body. He complimented the students on their display of spirit and expressed his hope that their support of the team would continue especially since the game Saturday night would determine whether or not the Lancers would be tied for first place or hold the position alone. The coronation of the queen took place at eight o'clock that night in the auditorium. The first four candidates were each presented with a long-stemmed red rose while the queen and runners-up were presented with a bouquet of roses. The queen was crowned by her escort, John Bauer. lmmediately following, there were two hours of entertainment provided by a variety of groups. The twenty members of "The Kids" did songs from five Broadway musicals and also paid special tribute to Disney by singing, "It's a Small World." John Evans and Steve Hahnke sang and played their guitars between the various numbers done by the Kids. The faculty presented their skit this year, "Twas Brillig," and the "Song of the Nymph" which brought a series of HA-HA-HA'Sand HOH()'HO'S from the audience. Finally a brass and percussion group played two numbers, "Swinging and Swaying" and "25 or 6 to 4." If anyone wanted to be swept

off his feet, he could join the broom hockey games which began at 9:30 A.M. on Saturday. The games continued into the afternoon. The' women's championship was decided by a coin toss. The winner of the toss was Delores Kracht's team. The men's championship was taken by Dave Noffsinger's team. At noon the queen candidates performed one of their last official duties - judging the beard contest. Each candidate rated each contestant separately, and the scores were then totaled. The first-place winner was Orville Breitkreutz, and second place was held by John Bauer. The last home game that evening began about a half-hour behind schedule because the Bgame lasted until eight. The first game was won by our Lancers by a 37-point margin. Half time entertainment of the A-game was provided by the twirlers, Pom-Pon squad, Pep Band, and 25 young girl gymnasts of the New UJm Turners. After the game in which the Lancers defeated the Chiefs 7761, the queen and court were formally presented for the last time. The winners of the class competition and the various contests were announced at this time by the queen and runnersup. The result of the mural competition was a first place for the junior mural, "Our Paths Were Paved With Disney." They, too, won the overall class competition for their efforts. After the queen finished her announcements, She expressed her gratitude to the student bocy and explained that being a queen was "really different." The '73 Snow Carnival officially came to a close with the Showing of the Disney cartoons and the movie, "The Pit and the Pendulum," based on the Short story by Edgar Allan Poe, but there will always be memories for all who participated.

Nelson, a college freshman. Beginning at 7:30 PM in the chapel auditorium the evening is guarranteed to be filled with thrills and chills for all. For anyone with talent this is The Big Chance to be a star and Shine for the entire campus to see. Various groups, some old and some formed just for the Bonanza, will be participating. Keep March 10 open and make the F.A.C.E.B. a smashing success!

Library Receives

Painting Many of you may have noticed the new painting which hangs on the east wall of the library, and wondered where it came from. The painting was donated by Mrs. Emil Trettin in memory of Mr. Emil Trettin. She used money from the memorial fund which was designated for this purpose. The money came from memorials .cont~ibl.lted by Individual donors.

The painting was painted by Mr. Robert Von Neumann, a retired professor of the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, who is now in his late 80's. This painting, which is one of his best, will probably be his last. Mr. Von Neumann has put on several art shows at the Milwaukee Art Center and has several prints in the Library of Congress. The frame for the picture was made by Mr. Lester Found, who is now the viceprincipal of Wisconsin Lutheran High School. The name of the picture is "Faith - Peter and Christ on the Water." The picture depicts Peter's need for Christ's hand to save him from destruction. The contrast between violence and peace is shown bere. We see the peace in Christ's face, and in the background the raging of the sea. Mr. Von Neumann has a unique way of blending his colors in this painting, and depicts Christ as being blond, which is also very unusual.

~'\E-S ~ Let's have campus spirit! Judging from the attendance at basketball games no one would dispute the fact tha t DMLC students have school spirit. Yet what we are lacking in is campus spirit - that is a spirit ofcooperation between college and academy students. Ever since the college and academy have become separate institutions, but sharing the same campus, each has developed spirit in its own school. This we feel is good. However, due to age differences and the lack of direct contact between college and academy students, misunderstandings and tensions have often resulted. Conditions have now reached a point where It is very difficult for individuals to cope with these problems. Wha t is needed is a joint effort on the part of both groups to get along together. . The elected representatives of both schools recognize tbls fact and have planned several joint activities. The first of these was a pep rally held on January 5. The highlight of tbls rally was a humorous skit divulging the gripes of both college and academy students, against themselves and their behavior. As a follow-up, academy and college nights were declared for the next college and academy basketball games. Unfortunately, there was only light to moderate attendance by the invited school at both games. We ask Is this having campus spirit? ' This Saturday night Is the first A~ampus Entertainment Bonanza which will be presented by both academy and college students. It will again provide an opportunity to demonstrate a spirit of cooperation by getting acquainted with the other half of the campus. See you there!

By Klki Johnson (Editors' Note: This article Is based on Kiki's practice teaching experience, but her feelings are generally those of all student teacbers upon returning from the classroom.) This is a difficult but an enjoyable article for me to write - difficult because it's about something I was very personally involved with, and enjoyable because it is about something Iloved very much. I want to share it with potential teachers so that they see student teaching as I did and if they already have finished their practice teaching, can remember the happy times they also enjoyed while teaching. For tbose who haven't taught yet, perhaps this article can help you realize that despite all the hard, sometimes distressing work that is required at D.M.L.C., those experiences are really worth it. Even the "trillions" of lesson plans we do here, believe it or not, are worth it. Teaching was marvelous - it really was, but it was scarey. When I think back to having to conduct my first devotion, I have to smile as I remember how frightened I was. Practice every day in the school room and preparation took away the fear. It became clearer to me every day that there is so much to learn in order to be a good teacher. It takes a lot of practice to get your kids keyed to learn, participate in class, and even get excited and willing to do the assignments. My pupils were great. From the first day I came I was no . longer Klki Johnson, student, oot Mrs. Johnson (they never called me Miss), teacher. Itwas a wonderful change. My pupils were normal, sometimes naughty children. We had our share of bickering, noise, and tantrums. They knew the classroom rules but broke them and I sometimes wondered whether I ever got through to them. Even when they were naughty, my interaction with them brought out their uniqueness and individuality to me. It was a joy to work with these youngsters who were so honest, and loving, and fresh from God. They were sincere and thought about everything. One morning in Word of God class, Gary asked if we might ever fall out of heaven. He thought we might fall through the clouds. As Christmas was getting closer we often talked about Jesus as our best Christmas present.

"Alice in Wonderland" Coming Soon No Alice In Wonderland tea party would be complete without the Mad Hatter played by Becky Hartwig or the March Hare played by Linda Berquist. Mary Lawrenz, who played sweet Guenevere only months ago in Camelot, practices strange child raising habits as the Duchess. Rules for croquet will be revised by Ruth Ungrodt as the .forceM Queen and the King with his opposite personality will be played by Leonard Proeber. But whatever has happened to Alice? That sweet girl of this Wonderland is Bonnie Zastrow. Come along and see them all. Make a date to step into Alice's Wonderland.

Klki's first and second grade students from Calvary Lutheran School in Thiensville enjoy a period of liveliness. Wendy told me one mornmg that she wasn't going to care about Christmas presents at all just about God. ' I think that Word of God classes were probably my favorite because that's really what it's all about. Telling the children of Jesus' love for them and praying tha t His love will shine in their lives was a thrill. The children often illustrated the Bible stories as their assignment. Did you know that Samuel rode a bicycle to Jesse's house to anoint David? Or that an American flag flies from the roof of the Temple? On one picture of "Jesus in the Tempie," Jesus was asking questions and the teachers all were saying, "No! Not.No!" One day my Big Bird puppet came along to school to teach a lesson on story telling in second grade. The stories the children wrote were priceless. In one story Big Bird slipped on his "behinder" and his "pampers" flew off. . During one of the-first days I was teaching on my own, one of my little boys came up to me and said, "Teacher, Timmy needs you." I was busy right then and told him that it would be just a minute before I could come to Timmy's desk. "But Teacher, Timmy needs you right now." I found Timmy crying hard at bIs desk. He didn't say why, just handed me a brown paper lunch bag. Inside it was a decorated chicken egg that he'd brought from home for

show .and tell. It had been broken as he closed his desk and he didn't know what to do. His mother had let him bring it to school if he could be very careful and now it was smashed. Could I please fix it? I tried. Elmer's Glue doesn't do the trick on broken egg shell. I don't know whether he ever took his egg home or what his mother said when she found out. I hope she wasn't too hard on him. Practice teaching was wonderful and worth every second of preparation. It taught me a great deal and showed me I could do things that I never thought I could. I really didn't think that I could direct in church but I found out that I could when I had to. Directing went pretty well until one of the boys hiccuped quite loudly and everyone started to laugh, in: cluding the teacher who smiled quite loudly. A quarter seems like a long time when you see the dates it starts and ends on paper, but my practice teaching quarter went by quickly. I had become so attached to the youngsters and enjoyed teaching so much that it was hard to leave when the time came. I left with many wonderful memories, and looking forward to a schoolroom of my own.

DMLC Messenger The

Letter to the Editor Doctor Martin Luther College. We call it a Christian institution, with Christian ideas, Christian standards, Christian students with Christian principles, Christian attitudes, Christian conduct, Christian morals, and Christian calendars. On Jan. 3 we returned to find beautiful calendars decorating the classroom bulletin boards, showing the wisdom of God's creation. There was much praise heard the first few days, and I'm sure, several moments were spent each class hour daydreaming about the pictures. Well, we don't have to worry anymore about wasting time over the AALcalendars as gifts. By the end of March most of them will have disappeared (though not vanished completely). And maybe it's all for the better. Who wants to count the days until Easter anyway? Besides, DMLC is still a Christian institution, with Chr istlan ideas, standards, students, attitudes, conduct and morals. All we lost is the calendars.

will always be a special event or happening that will always be remembered.

Stahell Leads Business Staff, "It came to a point in my life when I had to decide what was more important to me: what exactly did I want out of life?" This is the question that faced Mr. David Stabell, when he received the offer to replace Mr. Seifert as business manager at DMLC. The decision to move to New Ulm was neither an easy nor quick one.

The new organ will take the place of the now retired organ which was fondly called the "gray one" by many students. Room 21 in the Practice Hall will no longer be the gray organ's home but will be replaced by the organ that used to be in Room 27. The old organ was a 1929 model and has been serving students faithfully for 15hours a day ever since then. We hope the new organ will serve just as long and well as the "gray one."

Ladies Donate Useful Gifts Have you noticed how neat the doorways of the Academic Center and the steps leading to the lunch lines have been lately? The fact that you no longer have to trip over books, coats, etc., in order to get out the door, can be attributed to the new bookshelves and coat racks which have been placed in those areas. There are two bookshelves in the doorway of the Academic Center, two coat racks between the lunch lines, and one coat rack on third floor of Old Main for the typing and piano students and for Colligiate Council members. These items, along with new drapes for the first floor of Summit Hall, were donated by the DMLC Ladies Auxiliary.

an adjustment for a man With Mr. Stabell's background. He and his wife, both natives of the Midwest, coming from Kenosha and Beloit originally, are graduates of the University of florida. During four out of eleven years spent in Florida, Mr. Stabell worked for the Boeing Company at Cape Kennedy. Here he was in charge of carrying out changes in the first stage of the moon rockets as ordered by the engineers. "But that's not the exciting part of working on the cape program." According to Mr. Stabell the best part "was meeting important dignitaries, astronauts, and stars like Johnny Carson, Barbara Eden, and Eva Gabor. In addition to that I was able to witness every Apollo and Saturn lift-off." Since three and one-half miles was the closest distance at which a lift-off could be viewed without danger, the Stabells simply had to step into their yard to watch the thirty-six story rockets shoot into the sky. Prior to accepting the position at DMLC, the Stabells lived in Fort Worth, Texas where he worked for General Dynamics

Corporations. This company builds many types of aircraft, including the controversial FIll. While here, Mr. Stabell worked in a secured area on classified contracts indicating aircraft changes. After a career like that, Mr. Stabell agreed that being business manager might seem to some as being anti-climatic. However, Mr. Stabell and his family are enjoying their life in New Ulm very much. As he put it, "We're thrilled to be here. It's beyond all our expectations. Because of the places we have been, we can appreciate a small town so much more." Mr. Stabell's final comments on his new position at DMLC were, "New Ulmmay seem like a step down to some, but it will turn into only steps up for my family and me. We can do nothing but gain from the atmosphere of spiritual wellbeing." The Stabells have two children, Gracie 9 and Jeff 6. Mr. Stabell can be described as a tall, lean, outdoors-man who likes fishing and hunting. He is also planning to take up golf again when he has a chance.

Phone calls are all in a day's work for Mr. Stabell.

The score at intermission was tied at 28-28as Luther just could not get any offense going. Luckily, Northwestern had the same problem or the Lancers would have been blown off the court. The only offense that really seemed to work was off the Lancers' spreadout offense with ei ther Jim Petermann or Hartwig going inside for the layup. Paul Hartwig led all scorers with 23while Petermann added 14 and Greg Hoffmann 10,

DMLC CLINCHES TIE The Lancers clinched a tie for first place in the MRA conference by beating Pillsbury College February 10 by a score of 81-69. Paul Hartwig was again the big gun for the Lancers, scoring 30 points, 17 of them before the half. It was a game that was marred by fouls onboth sides, three Lancers and one Pillsbury player fouling out

of the game. Luther was in control the entire game except for five minutes of the second half when Pillsbury cut the Lancer lead from 22 points to a meager 6. Then Coach Dallman went back to the offense that has worked so well this year in the tight spots, the spread out, fourcorner offense. The Lancers shot a very good 50 per cent from the field and outrebounded the Comets to gain back the lead and protect it the rest of the game. Greg Thiesfeldt added 20 points to the Lancer cause while Jim Petermann added 12 to round out the Lancer scoring.

The first half started slowly for both teams. At the end of four and a half minutes of play North Central led by a score of 8-4. Then with good hustling defense and offense the Lancers made 11 straight points to take the lead 15-8. However, North Central countered with a spurt of its own to pull even with the Lancers 19路19, but soon lost its momentum and the Lancers took the lead which they did not relinquish the rest of the game. Luther went into the dressing room at the half leading 41-31, where something must have happened during intermission because they came out to shoot a sizzling 45 per cent during the second half to North Central's 29 per cent. Three starters fouled out for North Central. The leading scorer for the Lancers was Greg Hoffmann with 18 points. Seniors Paul Hartwig and Jim Petermann finished their

Sophomores Say ... "Try It, You'll Like It" Sophomores at DMLC are getting an early start in their teaching career. Introduction to Education students receive the valuable opportunity of helping teachers at st. Paul's Lutheran Grade School in New Ulm. This program, initiated just last year, consists of each student's spending five hours or 300 minutes in the classroom helping the teachers with their normal daily schedules. They teach songs, help students with studies, give tests, teach

Forensics Joins Debate With the decline of debate tournaments for second semester, forensics has been added to the debate club activities. Five students, four of them newly-joined members to the club, competed in their first forensics tournament on March 2-3 at Anoka-Ramsey Junior College. Veteran debater Ruth Kaiser entered the single man-to-man debate, of Lincoln-Douglas format. This means that there were' no debate partners involved, but each contestant debated single-handedly against a rival from another college on the national topic of medical care. She also competed in prose interpretation. Kathy Freuchtl entered humorous speaking and impromptu. Impromptu contestants are given five minutes to prepare a short speech on an mannounced topic of current interest. Sue Kuhl and Beth Spaude each selected a poetry reading to do for poetry interpretation, while Jan Breitenfield gave an original speech for oratory. On February 21, Wayne Dobratz, speech coach at Bethany Lutheran College in Mankato brought three forensics students from Mankato State to demonstrate the various forensics activities.

Lohmiller

Among the demonstrations were examples of oratory, poetry and prose interpretation, extemporaneous speaking, and after-dinner speaking. As an mofficial close to the debate season for first semester, on January 12-13two debaters brought home a small trophy from the novice tournament at Mankato State. Ruth Kaiser and Jenise Templin placed in the quarter-finals to receive the trophy, the first known debate trophy to be won at DMLC in a number of years. Coach' Thomas Kuster is urging all those students with an interest in any type. of forensics event, whether they have had any previous forensics competition in high. school or not, to see him about future forensics tournaments this semester.

physical education, supervise recess, monitor washrooms, and perform countless other duties that are every teacher's responsibility. Sophomores are finding out what teaching involves and are able to gain valuable experience that will help them in later years. One reason this program started was to allow underclassman to work side by side with the students in the practice-teaching program. This enables sophomores to decide if teaching is really their goal, and just what will be expected of them. Many students believe this is a worthwhile program and that it should be continued. One student said, "The most outstanding feature of this program is that you realize how different the schools are since you were sitting in that little desk." Another reaction to this program was" ... one breath of life in an otherwise dead semester." One sophomore commented, "It was a good experience. It gave me a pickup, that I really needed in a difficult sophomore year."

Drill Team Flashes Colors "Presenting our nations colors was the most honorable thing the Drill Team could do for our school." This was the comment given by Carole Ristow, the president and drill master of the Drill Team. The Drill Team has opened six basketball games by presenting the American flag for the singing of our National Anthem. This was the first year the team has had the two rifles and the flag for this purpose. The Drill Team also participated in the Homecoming activities and s plan to be 10 the Memorial Day parade. For the _ parade they hope to add some flags to their equipment .. This year's team consists of only eleven members, very small compared to the past two years the team has been in existence. This team practiced three nights a week during basketball season to learn new routines and move correcUy when an order was given. The team worked hard and deserves a big round of applause. By adding new equipment and activities, the Drill 'ream o.fficers; their instructor, Craig Kitzrow; and advisor, Mr. Luedtke hope to create a greater interest in Drill Team. Give it a thought next year!

Be Free In past weeks DMLClovers of skiing have been proving their talents on several excursions. On March 2, the group enjoyed special half price rates during a trip to Ski Haven in Mankato. A small party was held afterward in the Chalet. The group also visited the Twin Cities for a weekend of skiing at Afton Alps and lodging at the Nork Residence.

Concert

Sunday February 18, 1973was the date. The DMLC ChapelAuditorium was the place. The event - the Academy Band, Aeolians and Marluts winter concert. A good attendance at the event welcomed the groups as they presented a variety of selections. The Academy Band, under the direction of Mr. Roger Hermanson opened the program with three selections, including "The Typewriter" and "Festio." The Marluts followed with three numbers, "The Streets of Laredo," "By the time I get to Phoenix," and "Lida Rose." The directors for the Marluts were Carl Nolte and John Stark. Janice Breitenfield directed the four Aeolian numbers, which included "Trolley Song" and "God Bless America." The ;final selection of the vocal part of the concert was dedicated to the POW's who are returning home. This selection was "When Johnny Comes Marchiru! Home Again." The Academy Band returned to conclude the program with several selections including the "Theme from 'Summer of '42' " and Sousa's "Washington Post March."

- Ski!

The club is always interested in more members, so if you want to try something new, join the group on a ski trip. In the words of Ski Club president, Larry Roglen, "Weekends are going to get lonelier before they get warmer, and there's always somebody going skiing every weekend, so come on out and try the "great white sport."

Life By Cathy Ulrich Have you ever thought just how lucky you are to be alive? Stop and think for a minute you're alive and moving. You can talk, walk, hear, see, feel, smell! You can be happy, but you can also be hurt. You will have many disappointments some large, some small - but sooner or later these disappointments will disappear. Life is sometimes what we don't want it to be, but it is what it is. We have no way of changing it. Life is having friends, a steady guy or girl, a family, going to a good sC~QOI,vi~iting friends and relatives. We IS going to football games and, later, cheering for the basketball team. Life is giving birth to a child; becoming a father or mother. Life? You are life. We is so easy to throwaway - but you are special; you can fulfill y~ur life as the good Lord sees fit. Live while you can. We is as good, happy as long as Y0!1 make it. Live while you can; if you don't, life becomes very tedious.

He took my hand into his own and walked along as if he I did not question what he did nor where he went, but simply followed where he led.

Toowell I knew what this would be and so we walked - each with his memory. The silence was not broken our words need not be spoken. Atlast we stop atop a hill; he sat upon the ground, .arms surrounded me with gentleness and love. My head I rest upon his shoulder.

What need have we of words? His eyes tell a story which his lips could not reveal. warm caress is tenderness that language cannot utter:,; . .,,,""' .. ,, His love is deep - far deeper than the sea.

Much more than this I see and so I ask, "What need have we of words?"

event. Many things were also found out by the Student body, not only through the M.C.'s but also through the singers themselves. For example, how many of you knew that Bill Treder and Bill Hartwig of. Symmetry liked Neil Young? Well, you know now. And how many people knew that Jim Kragel had a hidden talent as a music writer? (I know some of you still wonder if he does or doesn't.) At least now when we hear "It's a D" we'll always think of the Bad News. Other groups were the Pep Band, Dennis' Disaster, Yesterday's Reflections, JR and SS, Bosom Buddies, Rambassadors, Bonnie and Sue, Vonnie and Sue, Steve Eisenman, Odd Couple, Gwen Wolff,and the super highlight of the night was the Supremes live and in person. They all did a beautiful job and some credit should go to Jon Winkel and all the others who put much time into this program.

After a short break, the 1971 Convention filmstrip, "We Believe and Therefore Speak" was shown. Following the movie, President Frey presented "A Study in the Planning Process," which ineluded an explanation of DMLC's budget, planned for six years in advance. "Pastor Schaefer feels that our school has developed the most sophisticated planned-program budget," said Prof. Raddatz. "And because it's such a good one, Pastor Schaefer wanted President Frey to present it." President Frey was ultimately responsible for getting the budget preparea ana comICoullDuedon Page 3)

Students Check-out -Double Agent Did you ever wonder what it feels like to be an international spy? The students of DMLCwill be privileged to hear it man who has had such an experience. During Convocation Hour on April 12, our .lyceum program will feature Kaarlo R. Tuomi. Mr. Tuomi was born in lshpeming, Michigan in 1916. He attepded school for the first ten grades in the United States. In 1933, his Communist-minded father moved"the family to the Soviet Union, where Mr. Tuomi worked as a lumberjack and fought with the Communist army during World War U.¡ . After the war, he married and is now the father of three chlidren. He then studied four years at. a Soviet teachers' . .

On March tenth of 1973 at seven-thirty post meridiem time, something was done to help the college-academy relationship. This special event was the first all-campus "Entertainment Bonanza." Men and women from both the academy and the college took part in this program. There was all singing and instrumental entertainment with a great variety in both fields. The night began by introducing the M.C.'s for the night. They were Deb Stellic:k from the academy's Senior class and Jason Nelson from the college's first-year class. Fourteen different groups participated in this evening's

college and taught English in Russian schools for seven years. In 1957, he was sent to an intelligence schooland was then sent on a secret spy mission to the United States. Shortly after he arrived in the country, he was contacted by the F.B.I. For the next four years, Mr., Tuomi worked as a double agent and cooperated with US officials to keep in check a conspiracy of Soviet espionage. In 1963,he defected to the United States and has since devoted his time to lecturing on his experiences. .Allfans of spy-novels or those who would just like to spend an interesting hour are invited to come to hear Mr. Kaarlo Tuomi OIlApril 12.

Edmonds and Curley Comedy Duo

Edmonds, Curley Spark Campus Humor The comedy team of Edmonds and Curley appeared at the DMLC Auditorium on the evening of March 13; creating a world of humor and imagination. Their vivid skits, using sound affects as the only props, brought a little humor to the mid-term blues of the Luther campus. Through the skits the audience was taken to their world of make-believe including a skit on the peril of coming to New U1m via North Central Airlines. Their knowledge of the Luther campus seemed almost unbelievable. This could be seen In their skit about the trouble a girl faced when she met the house mother five minutes after hours. However, this knowledge of a small college is not really that fantastic, since they got their start on the high school circuit. Today, about three years later, their credits include appearances on Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Merv Griffin, David Frost, and Mike Douglas. Their show has no writers. Most of their act comes from early rrnp r ov i s a t Io n s whicn

developed as they presented their show to the high school teenagers. Some of their success was due to the fact that "Working together became something we sense," Edmonds explained. "We had to adjust fast. .. by the end of the high school tour anything could happen on stage and we'd both be right with it." Edmonds and Curley were brought back to the Luther campus within only two years since their first appearance for several reasons. Since they were en route from one show to another and DMLC was in the middle, it was convenient, and also, because through a survey it was found that they were well received' In 1971, the lyceum committee decided to ask them to stop again. Even though they returned in a short time and some of the skits repeated, nearly everyone' welcomed their comedy. Many expressed their reaction Indifferent ways, but most made comments as did one freshman girl, "They were really funny, especially all their weird noises."

"European Civilization and Culture" was the title of a slide lecture given by Professor Koelpln during convocation hour 011 March 29. The slides, deplciting a sevenweek European study tour provided for those in summer school, covered the different areas of travel for the forty participating DMLC students and Professors Koelpin and Hartwig, who acted as tour leaders ana lecturers. The slide lecture went in a somewhat geographical order starting with the Luther Lands in the Gennan Democratic Republic. Location shots coinciding with Lather's past were eagerly viewed by the students, as were those concerning Central and Southern Gennany. ,.The mountain couniry of Austria was next. From there the audience traveled with Professor Koelpin to historical Italy, seeing and hearing about the famous Forum, Colosseum, and the catacombs, just to mention a few places. The land of the Swiss provided many colorful slides of picturesque sights and scenery. A tour of Europe would not be complete with out a stop at Paris; and so, just before entering the lower countries, we had a quick tour of it. Professor Koelpin's detailed lecture left the audience with a desire to iravel to Europe - if not with the summer school program, then in some other way. It would be well if somehow and some way the land of the Reformation could be viewed by all ..

Lenten Vesper Service Brings Harmony

protesting the Supreme Court's on abortion have been removed from the bulletin boarda on campus and mailed to the appropriate people. These sheets have been duplicated and twenty copies sent to various Congressmen and Supreme Court JUBtices. The response to this petition was tremendous, as close to 800 signatures were received. ThIs Is over 90 per cent ofthe student population at DMLC. We, the editors, are pleased with this response of students, faculty members, and others Involved on this campus In speaking out In a legithnate way on national affairs. There are other burning Issues In the Ihnellght today - the proposed legalization of drugs, the teaching of creation and evolution In our nation's schools - to name a few. In our four years on this hill It Is easy to let the rest of the world revolve around us, but remember, we're still part of that world. Don't say you're too busy to express your opinion unless you are also ready to accept the decisions made by the rest of the world.

The Cloral Vesper Service was held on March 18th in the Luther Memorial Union presenting the Lenten theme in song and word. A sermonette was given by Dean Huebner. The chapel choir, treble choir, college chorale, and academy choir and chorus Joined together in a devotional setting to sing the praises of our crucified and risen Savior. Music in the service varied from .the well-known chorales and traditional anthems to contemporary pieces of worship praise. The choirs . were accompanied with a trumpet, trombones, percussion, and organ in-: strumentation. The Choral Vesper Service has been a harmonious highlight to our Lenten season not only for the picturesque music depicting the Lenten message, but also for the chance to worship our Lord and Savior In word and song.

Contemplations "Book reviews, tests, oral reports!" they cry, "Keep those seniors studying, as the days goby. Don't let them sit there, with nothing to do, Keep 'em busy with schoolwork, and they'll all love you." Super-liumans, the seniors? Well,'yes, we must be; at least the profs think so, as they keep us busy. Each prof is convinced we study only for him, and therefore must fulfil his every assignment and whim. But, dear professors, this poem Is for you, it iSn't that we don't llke the thlDgswemust do. However, we wish that the amount wouldbe less, instead of a report every day and every other day a test.

Ruth Kaiser poses with her second place trophy.

Don't misunderstand us, we don't mean to complain, it's just that we feel this schoolwork Is Invain. There's only one Important day for which we walt, and that is In June ~ day number eight.

Wehave suffered through three years here at school, we've behaved very well and followed each rule. We've been out teaching, and have listened patiently, but do you want us to graduate with only half of our sanity?

Student Teaching Schedule

Be realistic, dear professors, and readily agree, that a clear purpose for these last classes isn't easy to see. May we then ask you, as a last request, . could we please use these last months as a time of rest?

On Friday, March 23, 1973,at 8:00 p.m., the Symphonic Concert Band and Concert Band Ensemble presented an International Festival of Music. The music at this concert represented the four .major countries of the world. The flags of these four countries were also at the concert. The four countries and the songs representing them were the following: The United States: The National Anthem, Psalm for Band, Suite of Old American Dances; Russia: Russian Easter Festival: Overture; Great Britain: Water Music Suite, Moorside March; Germany: Piano Concerto No. 1 in D Minor, and Under the Double Eagle March. The number entitled Beguine for Band is of Latin American style. Professor Otto Schenk was featured in Brahms' Piano Concert in D Minor, the first movement. This concerto was transcribed by Linda Walling for a woodwind band Instead of orchestra. She spent the summer of 1972working on this piece and it is the only transcription of this sort for this concerto. The programs for the concert were designed by John Fuhrmann and Barbara Sauer; .'

Tbls two not even sure it will get printed. But rest 118SW'ed, if you are reading PrInted '? it, it was printed. Now, there's an Interesting word (" , . No, dummy, "deadline."). It really consists of two words (for all you math people) "dead" and "line." Ifyou're dead on target, that's just fine, but if you're dead tired (not unlike DMLC students), that's not fine. If you're dead as a doornail, that's not good elther, and if your grades area dead issue, it'snoll8e talking to your parents about them. Ifyou are dead to the world, you are not conscious (like many DMLCstudents) or maybe just far removed from a certein place (as many DMLC students would like to be). A dead letter didn't have the right address, which might have been a dead end street. Of course, if you're blind date Is a dead end, she may call you a deadbeat, and she'll become nothing but dead weight. On the other band, she may be deadly, and you would call ber a live. wire. ., Live wires, thougb,·usually carry electricity, especially high tension lines, wbIch (unbeUevably) brings us to lines. Lines do carry electricity, mown in electric circles (circuits?) as juice; but juice Is also found in limes, not only lines, so Iwonder if that really ~~ Aline Is (of course) the shortest distance between two points. It Is also what you say in a play, and what you flsb with. (Strangely enough, girls who go fishing for compliments don't II8e a line, but tbey often get one.) You must lead a line, you cannot drive one. If you could, that would be a line drive. A line is something that is drawn, and I tbink we sbould draw the line right there. A deadline, then, could be many things; the border of a cemetery, the shortest distance between two points on a coffin, your part of the music that bas nothing but rests, a high tension wire that has been shut off, a telephone that doesn't work anymore, a joke that doesn't work anymore, a dubious compliment that doesn't work with the girls anymore, or an obituary. A ripcord that doesn't work is definitely a dead line; and if you lined up all the cigarettes smoked In the world from end to end, that is a dead line. Enougb. Maybe next month will be different.

Organ 'Recitals Invade ·Spring Weather With the warm spring weather upon us, everyone seems to be outside. The tennis courts are always filled, and softball games are going on. It also seems that fewer people are in the practice hall. But, if you happen to pass by it, you might hear some people really working at their pieces, for this spring there are four organ recitals. Carl Nolte, a college senior from Fairmont, Minnesota, p-esented his recital on Sunday, March 18. He performed three outstanding works including Mendelssohn's "Sonata VI in D Minor," Paul Hindemith's "Sonata ninE Minor," and "Chorale in A Minor" by Cesar

The Mission Fair is an annual seminar at DMLC,with a threeyear, revolving schedule of topics. One year deals with home missions, the next with the administration and work of Synod, and finally, foreign missions. Becall8e only juniors and seniors are excused from all classes to attend the sessions, each student is given the cbance in his last two years of education to hear two of the threetopics. AlthoughCollegiate Councilis ultimately in charge of Mission Fair, the Mission Conunittee acts as its own organization committee.

Spring Sports Look for Promising Season In spring, a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of . . . baseball, tennis, and golf? Well, there are a few men that are willing to give up the traditional homework and go out for spring sports. The tennis team is coming off a championship season and the prospects look good for another excellent season. Most of last year's team is back and there are enough new players to fill in the ranks of those not able to play this year and of those who were graduated. _ Baseball practice has already started for some of the players who have been getting their arms in shape for pitching and many who have been taking batting practice with the pitching machine.

Lancerettes Score Winning Season

The golf team looks forward to another good season. Many of the golfers will soon be out practicing their swing on the athletic field, once the ground gets hard enough to walk on.

Lancerettes vs.Anpbnrg On March I, the Dr. MartIn Luther College Lancerettes traveled to Winona to participate in the women's state basketball tournament. In their first game they trounced Augsburg College of St. Paul by a score of 59-21. Leading scorer for DMLC was Barb Leopold with 13 points whIle Gayle Gilmore and Gloria Lohmiller netted 10.

Men's Volleyball Season Finishes With Success During the past month on various evenings of the week men's intramural volleyball was an-ever-present force in the L.M.U. gym. Under the direction of the Men's Intramural sports Association a total of nine teams, ranging in size from seven to ten members, went to it on the courts to battle for the championship. Every night tour games were played. Eight of the teams played whIle the remaining team acted as a "bye" for the evenmg. All four games were

played at once, three on the main gym floor and that fourth on the stage gym. The result was a chance to see many different forms of volleyball playing. At the end of the ninth round, when twenty-four games in all had been played by each of the individual teams, the championship was determined by the team which had the best overall standing. ThIs, along with the fun that the seventy-two particlpating players had, made for a successful volleyball season.

St. John's Celebrates

'~25~Yellrs';;of Grace~'-'-~

On October 19, 1947,'SI people attended a church service in st. Paul's old school auditorium in New Ulm. By January 4, 1945, this gro'Y?had organized as st. Jo~?~gelical Lutheran Church: Now, twenty-five years later, St. John's is celebrating the Silver Anniversary of this organization with several church services during the month of May. In 1947,St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church of New Ulm decided to begin a daughter congregation. The first services, held at st. Paul's School, were conducted by various DMLC- professors. When the congregation' was formally organized in 1948, the District Mission Board called one of these professors, Martin Albrecht, to serve the congregation as pastor on a part-time basis. When Prof. Albrecht later declined the call to serve st. John's on a full-tinle basis, Pastor Roland Gurgel of Rib Lake, Wisconsin, was called and became the congregation's first full-time minister. Succeeding hlm was pastor RollinRelm, and in 1959 Pastor Frederic Nitz came to serve the congregation which he is still serving today. Plans for a new church building began along with the congregation in 1948, and in February of 1949 the congregation joyously dedicated a basement cbapel on the corner of Seventh South and "Nashington Streets. This chapel served as the worship area until the full church building was constructed and dedicated In 1966. - , What be(:an as an Sl-member congregation has today grown

to 727 souls, 502 communicant members. These people have now dedicated the first three Sundays in May to thanking God for His abundant grace in their midst. The chief anniversary celebration was held on May 6. In the morning, identical festival services were held at the regular times, 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. Professor Roland Hoenecke, a charter member of st. John's, preached for these services, and Miss Dorothy

Ticket sign-up sheets for the banquet (which is free for n.M.L.C. students) have been posted in the Academic Center for the past several weeks. The Collegiate Councilis hoping for a good tum-outfor this affair, so make it a point to mark May 19 on your calendars as the date for the annual Spring Activities Banquet!

Association for Retarded Children. The money collected here is being divided three ways. Fifty per cent is going to build a new Day Activity Center InNew tnm, forty per cent for a "special Olympics for" the retarded, and ten per cent to the National Association for Retarded Children. At the end of this ten-mile hike, the participants received a snack that consisted of hamburgers, cookies and orange The students who took part in this hike found it very worthwhile. Not only did they gather money for the retarded, but they got some exercise and were able to see more of New Ulm. Many who didn't participate in the actual walking were involved by sponsoring the hikers.

Lutheran Collegians Rally at MSC By Betty Remias and Diane Diamond On Friday, April 6th, close to 200 collegians from several states gathered at Mankato state College for the annual Lutheran Collegian Convention. Approximately 30 DMLC students were privileged to attend the convention, the theme of which was, "CROWN HIM WITH MANY CROWNS." During the three days of activities, many of the DMLC students were able to meet fellow Lutherans from various state colleges. The weekend was filled with a combination of lectures, business procedures, entertainment, and Christian fellowship. Friday started with business procedures in the form of committee meetings for delegates. The DMLC delegates, Betty Remias- and Diane Diamond, attended the Resolutions Committee meeting and were amazed at the wide scope of acti~ities in which the Lutheran Collegians are' in-

volved. These resolutions included such topics as sending a volunteer to Lima, Peru; starting a new summer project in Flint, Mich; reorganizing the National Lutheran Collegians; and spreading the Word of God on local campuses; etc. For those who were not delegates, there were other activities such as seeing slides of the Holy Land and the Milwaukee and Detroit Projects, as well as time to get to know each other. At the opening evening service, Dr. T. Kuster spoke on "A Coronation Fit for a King of Kings," which was very appropriate to the convention's theme. Early Saturday morning the sleepy delegates found their way to the auditorium for the mass meeting. Hours were spent debating and voting on resolutions. Later that afternoon, Prof. Becker of the Seminary In Mequon delivered an inspiring lecture on "Faith and J';..tification." The day came to an end with relaxation

and entertainment in the form of a banquet and carnival. Sunday, there was a special church service for the Lutheran Collegians which included the celebration of the Lord's Supper. Following the service we sadly said our good-byes to our newly-acquired friends. Coming from a Lutheran college we often take for

granted God and our religion. However, from these brothers and sisters in Christ on state campuses, we gained new insights on the problems they daily face with the challenges to their faith. We realize how fortunate we here at DMLC are to be continually nourished by God's Word.

Lutheran Collegians rally centers on the theme, "Crown Him With Many Crowns."

Chamber Music Presented in Concert On May 1 at eight o'clock the annual Faculty-Student Chamber Recital was held. The coordinator of this year's recital was Professor Schenk. The recital itself was performed by small groups. These groups consisted of faculty members from MLA and DMLC, along with students from DMLC. The instrumental part of the program had a great variety of works. Preludes and fugues by Bach were played by Prof. Anderson on the harpsichord. The French Horn Quartet performed a nocturne from "Midsummer Night's Dream" by Mendelssohn. "Duet for Two Flutes" was presented by Miss Marie Miller of the faculty and Linda Cowley, a college fresh-

man.

Another Bach work rendered was "Suite in B Minor." This was performed by Linda Walling on the harpsichord and Ruth Kitzerow on the flute. Also in the instrumental part of the performances was "Festival Fanfare." Madrigal groups sang "April in My Mistress' Face" and "Silver Swan." Some wellknown American ballads such as "Streets of Laredo" and

"Wayfaring Stranger" were performed. Mrs. Ruth Anderson accompanied these ballads on the piano. The chamber recital this year was pleasurable as well as educational.

The Fox Valley Teacher's Club visits here every other year. So it was again this year. This year the trip was made on April 8-9. Although some may have not even been aware of their arrival, they spent a busy day. They arrived on Sunday and in the afternoon they toured the campus. In the evening they attended St. John's Passion. Sunday night was spent in the dorms, in many cases, with friends who go here. Monday they visited classes or just investigated the campus. Mter lunch they left again for Ap.pleton, Among other groups which have visited the campus this year are: Michigan Lutheran Seminary, Onalaska Lutheran Orchestra and the Northwestern College Touring .Chorus. In the future there will be other groups also touring the campus which is open to all visitors.

Variety of Music Spices Spring Concert The second joint concert of the Academy Band, Aeolians, and Marluts was held on May 6 in the chapel-auditorium. The Aeolians sang "Traces," "Wonderful Copenhagen," "Whistle a Happy Tune," "Little Wheel A-Turning," and "Small, Small World." Marluts selections were "Shenandoah," "California, Here I Come," and a harber-shop oldie, "Tell Me Why." Academy Band played several marches and popular songs including the theme from "Shaft" by Isaac Hayes, "March of the Olympians," "Prelude and March for Symphonic Band" by Ray Luke, "On the Trail," "With Bells On," and the Grand March from "Aida." "They're good, solid band numbers," said Mr. Roger Hermanson, band director. "There was no theme, we were just trying to expose them to some variety." With auditions for choirs being scheduled in recent weeks, many students don't know that they can join Aeolians or Marluts in addition to being in another college choir. Aeolians is a student- .

directed group of women for the purpose of secular singing, and it is open to all college women. The Marluts choir is exactly the same, except that it is open strictly to men ... Currently, Janice Breitenfield is Aeolian Directress, assisted by Laurel Uher, codirectress. Carl Nolte is in his second full year as Marlut director, while John Stark is

Sports Scene Sees Fast Action TenDls All,it's finally spring, and you may feel an urge to go out to walk somewhere. Well, walk over to the tennis' courts and watch DMLC's netmen go through their daily paces. Out on the courts you can see the skilled playing of the returning team members: Ron Sieggreen, Jim Buege, Eric 'fioge, Karl Grebe; Kurt Troge, and Pete Bauer. You will also have the chance to see the talent of the new players, who are Roy Dumke Jason Nelson, David Sellno~, and Russ Wilke. . The first round of this year's tennis matches had been. scheduled for April 10, but was snowed out. So the first real matches were held on April 12, here on our courts against an experienced and well-balanced team. It was a disappointment for the team as Ron Sieggreen and Jim Buege were the only team members who won two out of the six singles, while none won any of the three doubles, resulting in the final score of 72. After the Easter break was

completed, the tennis team played three matches. After losing to Bethel College, the team came back to win over Bethany of Mankato and St. Paul Bible for an overall record of 2-1. All team members won their matches in the Bethany game, and the final score .was 9-0. The' last match played in the week after Easter was against St. Paul Bible. The matches were rough because, although our men hit good shots over to a team that would normally have trouble receiving them, St. Paul . Bible was able to return them. Their team was not the strongest, but gave our team a good workout. We won the final score lieing Sol. Baseball The baseball team evidently had their minds more on Easter vacation than on baseball as they lost both games of a doubleheader to Dordt College by scores of 13-9 and 13-J. The first game was a slugfest that Dordt managed to pull out, but the second game Luther just got jumped on.

After losing to Dodrt College, the baseball team shook off their doldrums April 26 by beating Bethany College 22-3. The game was anything but artistic, with Bethany walking 8 Luther batters and committing 11 errors. Mike Hasse had a big day pitching and at the plate. He pitched three scoreless innings and drove in 5 runs with 4 hits. Steve Strieter 2-4 and Paul Schultz had a home run to each drive in 3 runs. The game was fairly close going into the fifth inning, but then Luther got 6 runs in the sixth, 7 in the seventh, and 5 in the eighth to completely bury Bethany. Golf In their first golf match since Easter Luther bowed to Gustavus Adolphus at the New Ulm Country Club April 26. All five of the Gusties' golfers had lower scores than the lowest scoring Luther golfer. Ernie Knobloch took Luther honors by shooting an 81, with Bob Filter close behind at 82. Gustavus low golfer shot 75.

Coed Flips )for Phy Ed Did you know we have a girl on campus who gets more nervous at organ recitals than in front of a crowd of people while competing in gymnastics? Ves, we do have a girl on campus _whose bobby is working out floor exercises and doing stunts on the uneven parallel bars. She is Sharon Burns, .a junior from Hales Corners, Wisconsin. This all started when Sharon joined the gymnastics team in high school. She enjoyed what ';she was doing so much that she joined the Turner's Gymnastic 'l'e3In'when she came to New Ulm. Sharon was with this team for about 1'12 years when she decided to get into some real competition and to join the National Gymnastics Association in Mankato. Sharon has been working with this team since this past October and has competed in five tournaments. Sharon has taken fU"St place in the uneven parallel bars. and second in her floor exercises, competing against 16 other teams. Competition is not only on an Individual basisbut also a team effort. The Mankato branch of 16 members has taken first place three times out of the last six tournaments. Since there is a tournament about every three weeks, Sharon is constantly practicing. In a week before competition, 12 bours of practice are. required; otherwise Sharon practices five bours a week. In practice Sharon works on sureness, timing, gracefulness, and balance, on which the contestants will be judged in competition. She also spends much time making up her own floor exercises. Sharon has spent the past six summers teaching young mentally retarded children tumbling and related exercises. These children enjoy this sort of thing. As far as the future is concerned, Sharon¡ would like to pick up some extra credits in phy ed and take it as a minor.

The Lancerettes opened their softball season with a doubleheader against Winona State here April 25. They split the pair, losing S-4 and winning 13-10. 1n the first game, Joyce Lohmiller batted 3-J, Karyl Kelley 2-3 and Barb Leopold homered

fpr the Lancerettes. In the second game, Leopold was 3-3 with another solo homer, and Gloria Lohmiller was 3-4. On April 28, the Lancerettes whipped St. Olaf by a score of 1So2.

"I enjoyed it very much and the experience that I gained I appreciate. I

hope to put it to good use in the future." The directors are elected each year by the choir members. "After the concert we're having elections for new directors," Janice said.

College Choir Travels to Choral Festival The College Choir, under the direction of Professor M. Zahn, will be one of the six choirs participating in the Wisconsin Lutheran Choral Festival. This festival of choral highlights will be held on May thirteenth at the Performing Arts Center in Milwaukee Wisconsin. The concert choir of Bethany Lutheran College (Mankato, Minnesota); Northwestern College (Watertown, Wisconsin); Wisconsin Lutheran High School (Milwaukee, Wisconsin); Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary (Mequon, Wisconsin); and the Lutheran Chorale (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) will also be participating in the festival. The College Choir will be singing, "The Advent Motet" by Gustav Schreck; "Hodie Christus Natus Est," by Bender; and "Praise God The Lord, Ye Sons of Men," by Schuetz besides participating in the mass numbers. The music covers a variety of interests from modern contemporary pieces to traditional variations of the hymn. Many of

the different church seasons and themes will be depicted in the music performed. Choir members are eagerly anticipating the advent of the festival.

By Cathy Ulrich In today's busy world and ever-changing society, it seems that older people are disregarded, thought of as worthless, and usually put away into homes for the elderly. In my dealings With old people, I find them quite charming, full of knowledge, and surprisingly enough, they value the same things and treasure the same fond memories tha t we do today. Here are some of an old lady's fond, "old-fashioned" memories, which are no doubt also memories of our own, or

Male Chorus Sings Out Northwestern's Touring Male Chorus, under the direction of Arnold O. Lehmann, performed at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in New Ulm, on April 11. The brass choir opened the sacred concert with selections from Lutheran Chorales arranged by Bach. As the concert continued, the chorus joined with the brass choir to shake the rafters with the hymn "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God". The choir continued with hymns which expressed the life of a child of God. Well into the concert, the president of the touring chorus, John Brenner gave the congregation some insights on the college itself. John told us about a few of the courses offered at Northwester~ .. an~"

welcomed any high school senior to enroll in this preministerial college. The assembly's voices then raised with the choir's in the singing of Hymn 486. Through the last half of the program the numbers the choir sang, rang through the church in a light and joyful Easter message. At the end of the concert the lights were dimmed and the choir softly sang "Abide With Me". As the stanzas continued . the lights grew dimmer and dimmer with the sweet quiet tones of the choir. The final stanza ended with a single spotlight shining through the blackness of the church on to the chorus. It was over, but the congregation was so captured tI,t~t.~~t,one personmoved.

Arbor Daze Then

With the dawning of the sun on April 25,Arbor Day '73 came and is now gone for another year. Looking back upon it, you might wonder what Arbor Day was like in the "olden days"; you know, when our professors were students. Basically, they had the same work crews to clean up the campus. Both the academy and college students worked side by side, with college students serving as group leaders. There was definitely less area to be given its spring cleaning. The big hill behind the Music Center was all trees, the lawns near the donna were merely fields. and crews weren't sent to clean up the professors' yards. In fact, the professors themselves pulled rakes and weeds, drove away rubble right along with the students. The profs as students were basically the same too. They admit that they too would often skip out downtown after the mid-morning break. The afternoons were left for goofing off, there being little organized activity. The biggest difference it seems between "now and then" is that then they had fewer people and too much work, and now we have too many people and not enough work. Of course this is the opinion of our professors. But no matter if Arbor Day was in '43 or '73, everyone welcomes a day of no classes.

In addition to a selection by the College Choir, under the direction of Professor Meilahn Zahn, the graduates will sing their class hymn. The lyrics for this song were written by Judi Kopitzke and the music was composed by Nancy Clemenson, both of whom are seniors. The seniors have chosen the white daisy as their class flower, and their class colors, ivory and avocado.

The long awaited moment is almost here for the Class of 1973 as they will receive their college degrees at the commencement exercises on June 8th, at 10:00 in the LMU gymnasium. For all of the thirty-one men and one hundred and four women of this year's graduating class, this service will mark the end of their student days at DMLC. For most of them, it will also be the beginning of their teaching careers in the classrooms of WELS elementary and preparatory schools. 1lle guest speaker for the occasion will be Pastor Edgar Hoenecke, the Executive Secretary of the Board for

Anticipation By Cathy Ulrich

The great anticipation of being collegiates stirred my eager friend and me. We talked for hours 'on how it would be. I remember our discussing all the clubs we would join, all the parties we would have. I faithfully pledged to be her roommate for four years. Where will all our neatly arranged plans go after graduation? From nowhere, the blowof reality hits - four years are over! My friend drifted into her dreams, while I clung to mine. Now, she has fallen for some guy, not even expecting to do so. Where do I fit in? It's hard to realize that it didn't also happen to me. I now realize, college too, is for memories.

Students Elect New Officers And, for all you curious people, we have the newest game that's sweeping the country (or maybe just New Ulm). It's called "NamJies." Itconsists of thinking up the name of a person, so that

his (or her) full name is, in actuality, a real word. Examples: Lynn En; Em Mancipate; Greg Garious; and Mike Rafone. So you get the idea, I hope. By the way, the last name, I hope you realize, can be any useful combination of letters. So we find a' new bunch of profs at DMLC: the music instructors, Harmon Eyes and Phil Harmonic; the new coach, Jim Nasium; the new librarian, Tex Book; the ReUgionprofs, Dr. Inn, Mel Ennlum, and Herman Uetlcs; the English profs, Vern Acuiar and Art Tlculate; the new men in the science-math department, Ray Diatlon and Pete Treedish; and of course, some of the people we can't do without, the nurse, Penny SUlon,and the Janitor, Lea Toil. 'Thenthere're all those Irtsh people we know: Mel O'Drama, Vi 0' Let, HalO' Een, Jack 0' Lantern, Mel 0' Dee, Mac o'Ronl, Meg 0' Phone, VI0' Lynn, and cath 0' Uck. Not to mention all those map-makers at Rand-McNally: Minnie Sota, Della Ware, AI Labama, Rocky Mountain, Phil lpeens, Lou Wieslana, Vera Cruz, and Nina Menasha. And those related people: Kenny and Willie Dult; Ben Dover and Eileen Dover; and the Us sisters, Glory, Joy, Jeannie, and Fern. Not to forget our men in the service: General Electric, Sherman Tank, Roger Wilco, and Art TUlery.

A STORY 'Thefuneral was a morbid scene. BUIFold had collapsed In the street three days before, upon hearing the news that his best friend, Bud Jet, had been kUled In Viet Nam. BUIdied shortly thereafter. BUI's flllllCee was .Fran TIk, and wanted to know who was responsible for breaking the news to BUIso badly. AI Abye said that he was In Cleveland at the time, so that let him out; Shanda Lear said she was just hanging around, but she hadn't said anything to Bill. Dan de Uon said he never would have done such a mean,thing; ,and Ron De Vouswas far from' the scene, meeting someone. Just then the funeral director, Mort Ishon, walked in, accompanied by his pariner, Paul Bearer. 'They offered their condolences to those gathered, and the service started. Fran, wishing to accommodate everyone, had numerous denominations represented. 'The service was conducted by such notables of the clergy as MinnIe Star and Ben Edictlon. Tbe professional mourners were led by Len Ten, and solos were sung by Sarah FImm and Harold Angel.

The culmination of the Spring Activities Banquet was the naming of the new Collegiate Council officers. They are Sharon Hamula, treasurer; Jenise Templin, secretary; Eric Troge, vice-president; and Steve Thiesfeldt, president. Previous to the elections held on May 18 the candidates presented their speeches to the student body following the evening chapel on May 17. This gave the student body a chance to get to know the candidates better, prior to voting. Voting was completed on Friday, May 18, and the results were kept secret until Saturday night when out-going President John Bauer announced that 'Steve Thiesfeldt was our new Collegiate Council President. Steve's face is not an unfamiliar one on the campus. He has served as class representative on the Council since his freshman year. This year he was vice-president, and was seen actively involved with many of the Council's actlvitie •. Steve, a junior from Richfield, Wisconsin) attended Winnebago Lutheran Academy in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, his previous hometown. There he served as class president all four years, and in his senior year he was student body president. Sports have always played an Important part in Steve's life. Throughout high school and college he has participated in football, basketball, soccer, track and baseball, and has done well in all of them.

Next fall you'll be a Lutheran schoolteacher. "Just a schoolteacher," you may be telling yourself. Youknow your will be less than what your public-sehool counterparts are paid. It will not be left up to you to choose where you will teaching. Someone will assign, you to your school. You may relish the prospect of living In a small community, but many of day schools are In rural areas and small towns. And when you are In your new congregation, you may find that you are in It but not of It. 'Themembers may be cordial enough,but they will not be your people as your schoolmateS or your friends were. Youmay feel that you are only a transient. You are "just the Lutheran schoolteacher," But then you' step Into your classroom. This is your kingdom, your domain, The bond between you and your children is intimate and precious, deeper than friendship and more enduring than life. You share one Lord, one hope, one salvation. You are teaching the souls of your children to know their Savior, a knowledge and wisdom they need aboye all else. You have a freedom 'your publicschool Colleague does not have, the freedom to teach all your courses according to your deepest Chrtstlan convictions. "Just a Lutheran schoolteacher" - yes - but a teacher with God's credentials, a bearer of heaven's truth to His people; a teacher with the privilege of Imparting the greatest wisdom in the world.

BASEBALL Luther's sports team wrapped up a grand slam by. winning the conference championship in baseball also. The Lancers ended the season with a record of 6-4 overall and 5-2 in the conference.

Luther won the conference title in a manner that is very hard to duplicate. Luther won the team trophy, individual trophy, and the runnerup individual trophy. The only trophy that they did not win was the runnerup team trophy. The top golfers this year were

There you were, sleeping comfortably in your bed when you were awakened by the roar of voices. It could not be freshmen initiation because It's the wrong time of.year. It couldn't be your roommate because he doesn't snore that loudly. The answer to this riddle is that the noises emina ting from the practice field were none other than the groans and cheers of 37 hard-working men participating in spring football practice. As Coach Gorsline· put it, "You have to be· pretty dedicated to get out here at 7:05 in the morning." And for the greater part of May, this is where you found the dedicateg men each weekday morning. The purpose of the practice was to help improve the football skills of each player in thi regular team setup. It was also the proving ground for several new players that look very

Luther finished up the sports season by winning all four titles in the MRAC Conference sports: basketball, tennis, baseball, and golf. The tennis and golf teams both clinched the conference by wins on their meet on Friday, May 11. The Luther tennis team won with a total of 12points. St. Paul Bible had 6, and North Central Bible and Inunannel each had 1 point. Ron Sieggreen won the No.1 singles, Jim Buege won No.2 singles, and the doubles team won their match to make a sweep for Luther .. In golf the Luther team also made it a clean sweep. All three Luther golfers had lower scores than the best golfer of the rest of the tourney. Ernie Knobloch took medalist honors with a round of so. The team scoring

Banquet Closes Sports Season Dr. Martin Luther College officially closed out the 19721973 sports season with the Annual Athletic and awards Banquet held in the LMU Dining Hall on Tuesday evening, May 29. After a delicious steak dinner, the coaches of the respective sports presented the awards to the athletes. This year the winning team captains presented trophies to their coaches. In presenting the football awards, Coach Gorsline spoke about the positive attitude displayed by the players and student body to this newly instituted sport here on the DMLC campus. Despite their losing season this year, Coach Gorsline said we can look for great things to come from next year's team. Coach Sue Post presented the girls volleyball and basketball awards. Tournaments seem to scare the girls this year, as.they placed 4th in the State Volleyball Tournament. Coach Dallmann's eyes gleamed .with pride as cocaptains Paul Hartwig and Jim "Pots'" Bauer presented him with the MRAC Trophy and MRAC Tournament Trophy.

Coach Dallmann then presented the basketball players with their awards, noted school records thev had broken, and mentioned the 18-6 season record the Lancers chalked up. Of particular joy to Coach Dallmann is the fact that 3 lettermen are returning as sophomores next year. Coach Dallmann also presented the cheerleaders with their awards. Receiving their second letters were Jane Jaehnlg, Lydia Tibbs, Sue Barenz, and Jackie Streufert. First year awards were presented to Linda Schaefer and Kris Jeske. They were commended for their fine spirit and enthusiasm which helped Iring home the much coveted "gold hardware." Coach Marv Meihack presented letters to the members of the baseball team. Inwhat Coach Meihack termed a "rebuilding" season the baseball team compiled a 5-2 record which earned them the right to bring home the MRAC croWD.This year's team set a number of school records including the following: most runs scored in one· game (22 (Continued ou page 1)

The baseball team won the season title by beating North Central Bible College 1~1 on Saturday, May 19. Mike Haase allowed only two hits and one unearned run on. Luther's march to the clinching game of the season. Luther scored at least one run in every inning as North Central committed numerous errors and their pitchers wallted and hit batmen just enough to keep someone on base most of the time. Three cheers for the Luther athletic teams! With a season and tournament trophy in basketball, a trophy for each of the three spring sports, and the all-sports trophy, they deserve quite a hand.

Despite the problems, our softball team has had a pretty successful year. They have compiled a fi..6 win-loss record: DMLCvs WinonaState 4-8; 13-10 St. Olaf 111-2; Gustavus 12-8 St. CloudState 7-2; 4-9 Southwest State 14-5 Two at state. tournament: Univ.ofMinn. 9-14 11-18 Gustavus U .

Paul "Tummie" Hartwig had an outstanding 3-year career here at DMLC. He lettered In soccer, basketball, and tennis. Tummie is also the owner of several school records. He was presented with the award from the Lutheran Brotherhood for placing on the 3rd All Lutheran College Basketball team for the 1972-1973 season.

Dear Dr. Martin Luther College,

Class Hymn:

The time has come to say farewell; however, memories of you will linger on with us throughout our lives. Your profoundinfluence on us will be seen as we now enter the ministry of Christ and teach Christ's lambs those truths, based on the Word of God, which you have fixed in us. Four years have been spent studying on your campus. When we arrived here our freshman year, graduation seemed like something that would occur in the far distant future. Now those four years have passed and yet it seems like only yesterday we arrived here. How time does fly! Nowthat graduation is here, we suddenly realize that we are going out into the world and will be on our own.Fears and doubts assailus about our capabilities to serve Christ and carry out His work. But we _go forward anyway because we have the trust and confidence that Christ is on our side; He is the solid foundation on which we stand. Hence we have chosen for our class motto the words of Psalm 31:3, "For Thouart my Rock and my Fortress; therefore for Thy name's sake lead me, and guide me." Not only have you prepared us spiritually for the work we are to undertake, but also physically and intellectually. Your varied programs of athletics, intramurals, curricular study, and personalinterest organizations have enhanced us and prepared us to take our place in our classrooms and congregational life. Though we cannot repay you for all the benefits you have afforded us, we do wish to express ow: sincere thanks for all you have done. And so we say to you, Dr. Martin Luther College, thank you! We also wish you God's richest blessings as you continue your most blessed task of preparing men and women to serve their Lord and Master as teachers in His kingdom, leading little lambs to their Savior, Jesus Christ. -

In trial and tribulation, Lord,

Help us to see it through. And help us to remember that With prayer we turn to You. Lord, lead us all by Thy Word, As we live from day to day. Grant Thy courage and Thy guidance, Keep us in the narrow way. We came, dear Father, here to Thee, Thy blessing now to seek. Remain with us in spirit, as We go from week to week. We ask Thee to deliver Every child from Satan's reach. May each one become Thy dear child As Thy Gospel truths we teach. Help us to be Thy servants, Lord, - As scriptures now we search. Be Thou our Guide and Master, and Keep all within the church. May our weak faith be strengthened, Throughout all our earthly days. Keep us strong and faithful always, Let our life be spent in praise. The Lord has called us to prepare Ourselves for this great task. And now, as we go out to teach, Thy blessing, Lord, we ask. Direct us in our classrooms As we teach Thy precious lambs. We ask Thee for Thy great wisdom With bowed head and folded hands.

In the name of the senior Class of 1973,
