Beaverson And Roth Win Nomination Banquet And Play Color Activities For Irish Day

Leprachauns are coming for the all-school St. Patrick's Day Banquet to be held March 21, 1958, at 6:00 p.m. in the dining hall.

This banquet is semi-formal, and is being held in honor of the Irish and the "those-who-wish-they-were" Irish. The theme will be carried out with green centerpieces and programs, and the judicious use of shamrocks.

Wayne Augustine will preside as Master of Ceremonies. The German band will be playing several numbers for the affair. Several special numbers are in­cluded in the program, and there will be a time for everyone to join in singing familiar Irish folk-songs. Baked ham and lem­on chiffon pie are part of the menu for the meal.

After the banquet there will be a presentation of The Late Christopher Bean in Maytag Gymnasium. Refreshments will be served in Magee parlors after the play.

The banquet is sponsored by the student copncil and arranged by the social committee.

TU Students Attend Mock U N Assembly

Students selected by the Social Science Club will leave to attend a Little United Nations Assem­bly at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, on Thurs day, March 20. Representing Taylor will be William Loewen, student-advisor; Bill Boycott, chairman; Art Hansen, Ray Merz, and Martin Hess.

This will be a mock United Nations Assembly, and each school participating goes as a representative nation endeavor­ing to act on matters as that nation would. Taylor will take the part of Iran. Each member of the delegation will go to dif­ferent committee meetings where resolutions to be present ed on the main floor will be drawn up.

A General Assembly closing at 10:30 Saturday night will con­clude the session.

Delegates Gather At NSA Seminar

The Ohio and Indiana Region National Student Association held a seminar on international affairs at Oberlin College last weekend, March 16-17.

Two students from Taylor, Tom Hyldahl and Bernie Tucker were sent as delegates. The key­note address was given by Reg inald Green, the USNSA vice president.

The seminar was divided into three sections. The first address was given by Dr. Bhaskara Rao who spoke on India. The second was given by Mark Arnold, £ student from Oberlin who vis ited Russia last summer. He spoke on Russia and the Soviet Union. Ian Button, an exchange student from England, gave the last address on World Univer-sitv Service. The boys remarked, "the seminar gave us a greater insight into international af­fairs."

Naval Recruiter To Visit Campus

A representative of the Office of Naval Officer Procurement will visit the campus of Taylor University on Friday, March 21, 1958, to explain the various of­ficer candidate programs cur­rently being offered by the U. S. Navy.

College graduates and seniors within six months of gradua­tion, between the ages of 19 and 27, who are citizens of the Unit­ed States, may apply for officer commissions. The fields include Aviation (age 19 to 26), General Line, Restricted Line (Special­ists) and Staff Corps. Women juniors, seniors, and graduates may apply for Wave Officer commissions. Sixteen weeks of indoctrination at Newport, R. I., with pay and all expenses paid, precede actual service.

Complete information concern­ing all naval officer programs may be obtained from the Navy representative on the above date.

Rec Class displays Children's Hobbies

The community recreation class is sponsoring a hobby show for the children of the imme­diate community. Their hobbies will be on display in Campbell parlor Saturday, March 22. Judg­ing will be at noon on Saturday

Any Taylor student who has a unique hobby which he would like to display is welcome to do so at this time. However, hob­bies of Taylor students will not be judged.

Staff Members Receive Awards At Echo Banquet

Results of the nomination for the student body pres­idency held this morning placed Roger Beaverson and Wal-ly Roth as the two finalists. The vote between Mr. Beaver­son and Mr. Roth was close with a wide margin between them and the other three candidates, Ron Valutis, Adolnh Hansen and Bill Doell.

pps Roger Beaverson, a business major from Wauseon, Ohio, is at present the junior class pres­ident. He is interested in music, having participated in the Var­sity Quartet last year and sing­ing in the Cappella choir this year. In his freshman year he was treasurer of his class. Last year he served as an orientation leader and as a member of the Youth Conference cabinet.

Wally Roth, from Morton, Il­linois, is majoring in mathemat­ics. Wally has been especially active in football and in journal­istic endeavors. Last year he was sports editor of the Echo and this year he is associate ed­itor for the newspaper. He is also sports editor of the Gem. In his sophomore year he rep­resented his class on the stu­dent council.

Petitions were circulated last week to nominate candidates for the 1958-59 student body presi­dency. The five juniors who were nominated for the primary election were Bill Doell, Adolph Hansen, Wally Roth, Ron Va­lutis and Roger Beaverson.

On Friday, March 14, the nom­inees asked questions concern­ing school policies to Dr. Wil­liam Green, Dr. Paton Yoder, Duane Cuthbertson, and Martin Hess. The nominees gave brief speeches over the public address system Monday night during the supper hour. On Tuesday night the candidates discussed the is­sues of their platforms in a rally in Magee parlor.

Next week, March 24-28, will be devoted to active campaign­ing by the finalists. March 27 is the date for the final elec­tions. Each Taylor student is urged to cast his vote.

All junior males who had been in residence at Taylor for at least two years and who had at least a 1.5 grade point av­erage were eligible for this con­test.

Leading Politicians To Speak At Rally

On March 25 the Social Science Club will sponsor a po­litical banquet and rally in Rec­reation Hall. Hustings, an his­torical political word, is the title designated to the banquet.

Social Science Club members, those interested in politics, and local political leaders from Grant and Blackord counties will attend.

Following the banquet a pub­lic program will be held in Shreiner Auditorium at 8:00 p.m. This program will feature a debate between a leading Democrat and a leading Repub­lican of the state. The topic will be "Public versus private devel­opment of hydro-electric power."

The political parties take op­posing views on the subject of the debate.

Former Taylorite,Captain Shilling, Delivers Science Club Lectures

Dr. Milo Rediger addresses the Echo staff on what journalism en­tails at the recent staff banquet.

The Echo banquet, sponsored by the former Echo staff, was held in Recreation Hall on Friday, March 14 at 6:00 p.m.

Master of Ceremonies Chuck Saleska was seated beside Dr. Milo Rediger, guest speaker, cre­ating a novel reference to the recent impersonation Chuck per­formed of the dean. Advisors Dalton VanValkenburg and Mil­dred Stratton, Mrs. VanValken­burg, ex-co-editors Miriam Mar­tin and Bill Doell, student col­umnist Charlotte Justice, Chuck Saleska, and Dr. Rediger sat at the speaker's table.

Following an original reading by Dave Kemp, Dr. Rediger pre­sented an address on what jour­nalistic efforts should entail. Bill Doell gave brief explanations for the various symbols used in the decorating scheme, and Mir­iam Martin presented awards to three members of her staff who

have impressed her with effi­ciency and interest in their par­ticular areas of journalism. Mar-jorie Starkweather, present Echo editor, John Oswalt, news re­porter, and Trudy Krein, news editor, received awards. Profes­sor VanValkenburg presented special awards to Miriam and Bill for their effective work in the capacities of editor and as­sociate editor.

About thirty Echo staff mem­bers attended the banquet. The menu included Virginia baked ham with baked potato and peas, cranberry salad, and marshmallow-date roll. Each guest received encouragement and valuable tips for use in fu­ture journalistic efforts for the campus newspaper.

Captain Charles W. Shilling, former resident of Upland and now Deputy Director of the Di­vision of Biology and Medicine of the U. S. Atomic Energy Com­mission, delivered a series of classroom lectures at Taylor on Monday and Tuesday, March 17 and 18. He appeared on Taylor University's television program and lectured at 7:30 p.m. on "Educational Signposts."

Charles Wesley Shilling at­tended Taylor for three years and was awarded a B.S. degree at Taylor upon receiving his B.A. from the University of Michigan. He served his intern­ship in the U. S. Naval Hospital, Massachusetts, and attended the Harvard School of Public Health. He was awarded an honorary Doctor of Science degree from Taylor University in 1954 for his outstanding role in scientific research.

Because of interest in re­search, the Navy sent Doctor Shilling to the Harvard School of Public Health, .where he at­tended lecture courses on gen­eral and respiratory physiology and had a year's special training in rsearch techniques while do­ing experimental work in high

pressure air and oxygen physiol­ogy. From Harvard, he was transferred to the Experimental Diving Unit, Navy Yard, Wash­ington, D. C., where he experi­mented in general physiology and Biochemistry relating to high pressure air and oxygen and assisted in conducting re­search on diving tables and "lung" training techniques in reference to submarine escape. He is a qualified deep sea diver.

After retirement from the Navy in 1955, he joined the staff of the Atomic Energy Com­mission. In addition to his ca­reer as a research administra­tor and scientist, Dr. Shilling has written or co-authored sixty-one scientific articles and two books.

Dr. Shilling enjoys public speaking and has given many talks to scientific societies, civic organizations and fraternal or­ders. He is an ardent horticul­turist and in interested in nu­mismatics. He is a member of the American Medical Associa­tion, The Association of Military Surgeons, the Society for Ex­perimental Biology and Medi­cine, the Physiological Society, the Sigma Xi and the Cosmos Club, and is listed in American Men of Science.

Think—Then Vote Now is the time for all good Taylor students to come

to the aid of their school and elect a competent student body [(resident for next year. Who will be our man? Cer­tainly, we need a president who has leadership ability, in­tellectual competence and spiritual adequacy to carry the responsibility and the privilege of leading the student body of Taylor University. With the primaries over, the students must now again begin earnest consideration of the choos­ing of their leader.

Along with the candidates come the inevitable elec­tion issues. As we read over the platforms of last year's campaigners we note that many of the things promised or advocated in the platforms have been carried out by the present administration. Perhaps it is good for the candi­dates to provide us platforms with new ideas for campus improvement. For example, the present administration promised a better social program. Upon observation, it seems that we have had improvement in this area. What are some issues which could be brought to our attention this year? ELECTION ISSUES ARE MANY

Among the many things which may be considered as current issues are furthering of the honor system, the possibility of unlimited cuts from classes, literary socie­ties, what to do with the present dining room, mediocrity, the status of the school paper (whether it should be a "college" newspaper or a "student" newspaper), and how to improve student attitudes toward the college.

Thus far we have seen little of the "gala campaigning" of last year's election. Where are the bands and the street speeches? Of course it seems that these methods have been rather unsuccessful in vote getting. Perhaps silence will prove to be the stronger force in this election, too.

Briefly, consider candidates and issues; vote intelli­gently if possible (and, if not, vote any way). The best man may win, and if he doesn't some one else will.

Spiritual Echoes by Adolf Hansen

Action Is Not Progress "And Simon answering said

unto him, Master, we have toiled all night and taken nothing."

The disciples had been in a state of action all night, yet had not advanced in relation to their initial purpose. (The underly­ing reasons for this will not be discussed in this article, for they would be irrelevant to the principle involved.) One should notice, however, that the dis­ciples had had much activity, yet no progress. This is also very true of many individuals today! A great program of ac­tivity is carried on, yet a forward move is seldom made. Activity is mistaken for progress!

This might be true with re­gard to some areas of campus life—perhaps your life! You are quite active, yet you are not ad­vancing onward; you phoduce results that show little or no progress. You center your life around a great deal of enthusi­asm and spirit, and never know true growth, for your vivacity has become habitual; your deep-rooted concern and desire to produce and progress have been overshadowed and lost.

This principle or criteria may be equally applied to all areas of life. Perhaps it is true of your academic life or your social life. More probable and preva­lent than even these, is the pos­sibility of such a condition in your spiritual life! Public gath­erings as well as times of per­sonal devotion have become great centers for stirring and determination, yet the desired resultant factor of production and achievement has been over­looked and forgotten. This situa­tion clearly resembles a rocking chair—plenty of action, but no progress whatsoever!

There is the possibility that you may even substitute emo­tion for action. An impulse to­ward an open action never pro­duces the action in itself. It takes more than a strong feel­ing. It requires the wholeheart­ed consent of the will acting upon the impulse from within.

Thus we come to the realiza­tion of the words of Dawson Trotman: "Emotion is no substi­tute for action: action is no sub­stitute for production." God help us to be Christian men and women that will not mistake ac­tivity for progress!

Out of the woodwork by Ima Termite

In the days before the word "teen" was attached to the num­ber of my years, my father had installed an extension telephone. With eager abandon I listened to a conversation between him and a gentleman, both of whom were ignorant of their spy. Much to my delight, the man said, "Just between you and me..." continuing with some forgotten opinion about a film projector.

How much of what we say or do is "just between you and me"? Alfred Lord Tennyson once stated,

"Woods have tongues As walls have ears."

Hence, the title, of this column. The walls around this campus have ears, and in future issues, there shall be printed facts and happenings gotten "out of the woodwork."

If any reader has witnessed an amusing or startling occur­rence, he is heartily encouraged to submit it to the Echo, campus mail, for publication. Coopera­tion will make this column a suc­cess, since myriads of fascinat­ing things will come... out of the woodwork.

Revival Flourishes As Time Passes

by Norene Meningen The question of "But does

this religion stuff really last?" has been raised frequently and in various ways, especially dur­ing the past few weeks.

We can testify to the affirma­tive.

A voluntary prayer meeting is held every night after supper and often several rooms must be utilized to hold the overflow.

Friendliness is twice as prev­alent as before the revival, with­out any apparent effort. Room­mates have been drawn closer to each other, seem to be more considerate, and share their spiritual burdens and victories.

Spontaneous testimony and song times have risen in place of indifference. The remarkable, heart-warming, soul-satisfying ex­perience with the Lord contin­ues, and the spiritual atmos­phere of the campus is still hot.

Public Echoes Opinions Dear Madam Editor:

Inherently our campus seems to be plagued with an apathetic lack of spirit. There could be many causes advanced for this, and many methods for alleviat­ing those causes. I tiave one that I dropped into the campus improvement box several months ago.

Why aren't the school colors liberally applied to every Tay­lor vehicle, trash can, and ev­erything on campus which is now painted dark green?

I've been to many other cam­puses where the vehicles proud­ly display the school colors and the name of the school. If we don't like the school colors, let's change them, but not to khaki and dark green!

Thank you, "Sick of khaki and dark green"

Servants of Fourth Estate Are In The News Business

Little has been said about the present Echo staff, that is, the people who bring to you the cur­rent campus news and views in our colossal school paper. This is an attempt to inform the Echo readers of significant facts con­cerning their journalistic serv­ants of the "Fourth Estate."

Actually this is the oppor­tunity of a life time, for not ev­eryone has the chance to review such a renowned group. On the other hand it could well be the death of my Echo writing acreer. It all depends upon what is said, or not said. Editorial Staff Combines Efforts

The editor is quite diligent in her efforts to produce a good paper—even though she goes "stark" raving mad over "tur­tles" in this crazy "weather." As all good editors should, she keeps very close watch on the business manager.

"It's a crime that those re­porters don't get their stories in on time," says news editor, Tru­dy Krein. Trudy and her crew of competent and efficient re­porters strive to keep the read­ers informed of the latest cam­pus happenings.

"If the editor doesn't do it I will," says Wally Roth, our in­dispensable associate editor. Wally is a journalist as well as a sportsman. Going down the list, we note our "sporty" sports editor, Ray Merz. Ray attempts to keep us aware of the campus and national athletic trends. Of course we must include the fea­ture editor (that's me). His main fault is that he drinks too many strawberry cokes. Business Manager Is Multi-functional

Dear Editor, To whom it may concern, con­

gratulations for having shown a fine projection in Shreiner, (Man Called Peter). It was stim­ulating and very inspiring. Even though there was no popcorn or cushioned seats, I think Shreiner was as good a place as any thea­ter to see our country's re­nowned actors perform. I real­ize the actors were not "all" born again believers, but you must admit they surely preached the gospel.

The headlines of the last Echo included these words, "Ye should know the truth" and "Re­vival springs into action." What better way can we learn the truth and prepare for revival than by getting inspiration from the Gospel by Hollywood? I be­lieve we should also sponsor "The Robe," "The Ten Com­mandments," and even "David and Bethsheba." I am convinced, along with others on campus, that we should go and see these clever schemes the world is us­ing to avail their services to the Christian as well. If Hollywood is thoughtful enough to produce pictures with biblical titles and themes, shouldn't we as Chris­tians help to promote them?

Seriously though, students, is this a good method of enriching our Christian walk in an "Effec­tively Christian" college? Can God truly bless us through Hol­lywood productions?

From one who is concerned.

Tower Topics,., by Evan H. Bergwal l

What are the Fruits of an Education? What does the average person expect to receive from

his educational experience? Quite obviously there is no one ultimate that we want, but it would be helpful for us to set the goals before us and then seek to achieve these goals.

Permit me to suggest five goals that we ought to achieve in our educational experience. First, we ought to have the ability of problem solving. Throughout life we are going to face problems and challenges in diversified areas. Out of an education we should be able to know how to face a problem, to analyze it, to know the various possibil­ities of solving it and then out of the possibilities choose that one way that will bring a successful completion to the problem solving that is necessary.

Secondly, we should receive from an educational experience what we might call intellectual curiosity. Our college experience should give us a desire for further study. If we read only assigned reading, we are not developing intellectual curiosity. The sheer joy of reading and studying, not for grades but for personal pleas­ure and satisfaction, is one of the greatest rewards of an educa­tional experience.

In the third place individual initiative is important. An educational experience should give us a sense of initia­tive and responsibility that will help us to be leaders as well as followers. Those men who have been great scien­tists, great religious leaders and great teachers have been people with individual initiative. They did not have to be told everything that they should do. They saw problems; they saw opportunities; they grasped them.

In the fourth place there ought to come to us spiritual ma­turity. Personality development is not complete without this area of maturity. We have the opportunity of studying, not only from books but from the Book, and from the lives of committed men and women to discover what is spiritual maturity. This is what our God wants us to achieve and this is what Taylor University offers to every student. This type of maturity will give to a person a better foundation for growth and leadership in the future.

Finally the adequate motivation for life ought to be one ot the goals of education. I am thinking specifically of seivice motivation, the whole service concept has been minimized even in religious circles, but the world is crying today for leadership that is motivated in the interest of serving God and society.

Have you set goals for your educational experience? Are you occasionally checking to see if you are developing? No teacher can do this for you alone. It requires a conscious effort on the part of every student. Coupled with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we can achieve these worthy goals for our educational ex­perience.

Cinderman Prospects Considered Bright Coach Bill Fisher, new head track coach, is very confident in

his thinclads and was quick to discuss each of the five prospects. A brief review of the team shows returning lettermen Ron Housa-man and Bob Cotner along with newcomers Woody Blaker, Sam DelCamp and Carel Prater thrashing out the 100 and 220 yard dashes and also the low and high hurdles. Ted Curtis, Ray Smith, Charlie Kimes and newcomer Clayton Turner are running the 440 and 880 yard runs. The distance runs seem to be the weakest de partment of the team; however, Dave Bowman along with fresh' men Tim Titus and Dan Foster are conquering the one-mile dis­tance at a fast clip.

Field events feature newcomer Ken Robbins throwing the shot put. Coach Fisher believes he has the potential and power to break the school record. Returning letterman Martin Hess and co-captain Bob Jordan add power to the broad jump, high jump, discus and pole vault. Jack King and Ray Farley are throwing the javelin. The team's first real test will be in the Wabash Relays April 12. This columnist places great faith in this year's team and predicts that the Trojans will be close to the top in the Hoosier College Confer­ence when the season draws to a close.

Many upsets have occurred during this year's basketball tour­naments. In the Western Division Seattle defeated San Francisco and Kansas State upset Cinc.nnati for the West Central Divisional title. It was Temple over Dartmouth in the Eastern Division and Kentucky over Notre Dame in the East Central Division. These are the NCAA college finalists and they will battle for the national crown next weekend in Louisville, Kentucky.

The 1957-58 basketball season proved to be the best in nine years for the Trojanes. Only in 1947-48, when they finished with a 9-0 record, did the Trojanes have a better season than this year with their 8-0 record.

In addition to posting the first clean sweep in five years, the team established a new rec­ord by scoring 439 points, av­eraging 55 points per game to their opponents' 33 points. Sue McCune, who averaged 28 points per game, holds the record for the highest scoring average in recorded Trojane history. Her 36-point total against Anderson is also a new record for the most points scored in a single game. The old record was held

New Season Probes Diamond Questions

Unbeaten Berne Takes Tourney

Berne won the T-Club Junior High School Basketball Invita­tional Tourney held on the Tay­lor campus Thursday, Friday and Saturday by defeating J. C. Knight of Gas City 36 to 20. It was the 46th straight win for the boys from Berne.

There were 8 teams that par­ticipated in the tournament which included both a consola­tion championship in addition to the regular championship in the winners' division. The teams participating were Dunkirk, J. C. Knight of Gas City, Poling, Van Buren, Berne, Gaston, Mis-sissinewa, and Jefferson Town­ship of Huntington County.

A fine quintet from Dunkirk took the consolation prize by de­feating Gaston 34 to 17.

Berne also did a fine job in handling the Gas City team as they led throughout the game to down J. C. Knight 36-20. The centers of both teams, Smith of Berne, and Jernigan of J. C. Knight, had 14 points apiece.

The first five places in the scoring race were very close. First place went to McPlerson, a 6'2" 14 year old player from Mississinewa Junior High School, who played only two games but scored 34 points. Following him were Habegger of Berne with 33, Miller of Gaston with 30, Smith of Berne with 27, and Baumgartner of Berne with 26.

Irv Thompson, T-Club presi­dent, presented trophies to the first, second, and third place fin­ishers and expressed his deep appreciation to all the participat­ing teams in helping to make the tournament a success.

Fisher Eyes Track Season Hopefully

With the closing of the basket­ball season our attention has now switched to the spring sports. Already the 1958 Taylor University track team has been working hard to get into condi­tion for the coming season. The outlook for a successful season looks good to the new coach, Mr. Bill Fisher. The veterans look ready and eager for another good year with the new pros­pects ready to fill the shoes of departed cindermen.

The track team this year has chosen Bob Jordan and Ron Housaman as co-captains for the season. The team has also chosen I Corinthians 9:24-27 as their scripture verses for the coming season.

This year's schedule includes two new meets. They are the Wabash Relays on April 12 and the Earlham Relays on May 10. The rest of the schedule is as follows: April 15, Anderson, there; April 22, Indiana Central, there; April 29, Manchester, here; May 3, Franklin, here; May 17, Hoosier College Confer­ence Meet at Hanover College.

Will the baseball team be able to improve on last year's 6-9 record and will the weather allow them to play all their games? These are questions which can be answered only as the season progresses.

There are seven returning let­termen to the staff. These in­clude pitchers Bob Trout and Dale Ross, catcher Irv Thomp­son, shortstop Tom McGeath, first basemen Steve Creutz and Gene Marr, second baseman Gene Matsudo, and third base­man Duane Cuthbertson.

The mound staff will include: Trout, Ross, Les Jackson, Neal Volk, Nelson Gould, Jim Smith, Harry Young, and Pete Hill. The mound staff and the entire in­field, including the catching po sition, represent great depth of potential. Some of the talent in the area will have to be switched to the outfield, which represents the unknown quantity. There will be no returning letterman in the outfield. Much of the an­swer to the question as to how the team will fare depends on how the new baseball field straightens out.

by Pat Martin who scored 27 points in a game during the 1955-56 season.

During the eleven-year Tro­jane history the teams have won 56 games and lost only 4. In the 60 games played, the teams averaged 42 points, against their opponents' 30 points per game.

The team averages for the 1957-58 season tell the victory story. The team averaged 55 points per game compared to an average score of 33 points for their opponents. Boasting a to­tal of 439 points, the Trojanes scored 176 more points than their opponents. Taylor also ex­celled in both field goal and free throw percentages, posting a .379 field goal average and a .557 free throw accuracy. Ac­cording to statistics, Taylor's op­ponents averaged a weak .289 in field goal shooting and only .393 in free throws.

Field goal percentage honors were captured by Sara Pack with a .451 percentage. Janet Hartman's 34 fouls were the most committed by one prson, while on the other end of the ledger is Enid Hansen who was charged with only one miscue. The first meeting with Ander­son was the closest game of the season with the Trojanes win­ning by only nine points. This is contrasted with the 37-point victory over Earlham.

The Trojanes were again led by Miss Schabinger who con­cluded her fourth year of Tro­jane coaching with an over-all record of 28 wins against 3 losses.

Sincere appreciation for her fine leadership during the sea­son was expressed by the play­ers after winning their last game as they "assisted" her and team manager Joan Hoff into the showers.

Concert Concludes Nine-Day Tour

On Sunday evening, March 16, the A Cappella Choir, concluded a nine-day tour by presenting a concert in Shreiner Auditorium.

The concert included the same numbers as those concerts which the choir presented dur­ing the tour. Featured in the presentation was the motet, "Jesu, Priceless Treasure," by Johann Sebastian Bach. The 41-voice group concluded the con­cert with "Beautiful Savior."

The choir, directed by Profes­sor Burton P. Mahle, traveled through the states of Ohio, In­diana, Wisconsin and Illinois. Concerts were presented in Lima and Toledo, Ohio; in Elkhart, Kokomo and Alexandria, Indi­ana; in Milwaukee, Antigo and Boscobel, Wisconsin; and in Sycamore and Groveland, Illi­nois. From the time of their de­parture on Friday, March 7, un­til they arrived back on campus on Saturday evening, March 15, the group covered 1500 miles.

Students View Marshall Film

Members of the Taylor com­munity viewed the showing of A Man Called Peter Friday eve­ning, March 14.

The Twentieth Century Fox production was part of the Tay­lor University regular film se­ries. The two-hour, Cinema-Scope, technicolor moving pic­ture was directed by Henry Kos-ter, and the script written by Eleanore Griffin. It is an adap­tation from Catherine Marchall's best-selling biography of her husband, the late Rev. Peter Marshall.

With Richard Todd playing the leading role, the film de­scribes the career and ideals of Peter Marshall, a Scott, who emigrated to the United States.

The film was stimulating en­tertainment and quite stirring, and yet, for all its big talk about God, it had depressingly little to say about Christ. Hollywood has not attempted to fill the message of Christianity, but rather con­trived a way to mold the Prot­estant message to the standard movie chapel.

New Varsity Quartet Begins Preparation For 1958 Tour

The Varsity Quartet for 1958 is now established since the Administrative Council handed down its decision and contracts were signed.

The quartet sang together for approximately six weeks before their affirmation. During this time they sang at churches in Mt. Olive, Uniondale, Markle, Zanesville and several churches in the northern part of Indiana. The quartet assisted in the an­nual Pastor's Conference and in the musical program of the Spring Spiritual Emphasis Week. Their longest trip, about 460 miles round-trip, was to Ports­mouth, Ohio. The fellows pre­fer to sing and preach to youth groups.

Tentative plans are being made for the Easter and sum­mer tours. The Easter tour will be in northern Indiana, south­ern Michigan and northwestern Ohio. The summer tour will cen­ter in the eastern section of the United States.

The Varsity "58" is composed of three freshmen and one junior. The junior member is John Okesson from Jamestown, N. Y. John, who attended Tay­lor his freshman year, has had experience in the past with a youth quartet. He is a pre-medical student who is looking forward to a life of service as a medical missionary. John sings baritone.

Three Hoosier freshmen com­pose the remainder of the quar­tet. The second tenor, from Berne, Ind., is Byron Fox. Byron is probably the most exper­ienced member of the group. He has sung with several quartets and various other ensembles, and is also a soloist.

Gary Forbes, the first tenor, is from Angola, Ind. He has worked as a semi-professional soloist and ranks next to Byron in musical experience. Gary is a pre-ministerial student.

Bringing up the bottom is Lar­ry Fuhrer, the bass member. Larry is from Auburn, Ind. and has had several years of choral experience in high school, in­cluding work as a bass-baritone soloist.

If the Varsity Quartet tours during the Easter or summer va­cations through the area where any reader of the paper lives, the quartet would appreciate the reader's contacting the Gos­pel Team Office or Larry Fuhr­er, to schedule meetings in those areas.

World News And Views by Wm. E. Doell

As I See It It is really a sad, blue year for the Republican Administration.

Unemployment and prices are continuing to spiral skyward, de­spite happy exclamations from the White House, predicting relief in the not too distant summer months.

Last week the rolls of those drawing unemployment compen­sation swelled to a postwar record of 5,270,000. This figure is not a true representation, of just how many people are on the streets, looking for work, because there are still many people working in occupations ineligible to draw the government's handout.

Few people will blame the Democrats for the current re­cession, even though both the House and Senate entertain a Dem­ocratic majority.

The men in the congressional chambers are trying to repel this monster by introducing bills for increased federal aid to road building and various other projects, and they have even gone so far as to support a tax cut that would amount to 10%, retroactive to last July.

Ford has laid off veterans with 22 years seniority, and the steel industry is cut back to workers who joined them in 1939.

Defense Department officials maintain that this cut in man­power is due to the switch over to missiles for defense, rather than because of hard times. Up to now, the arme dforces have always been anescape valve for the overflow of unemployed, and could have been used as a thermometer to keep a tab on the economic situation. Whether the Pentagon s disguising the real situation or not remains to be seen.

Hurray for the luckless crew of the Vanguard project! This morning project head Dr. John Hagen, bolstered up with a new supply confidence, stated that if we just wanted to hit the moon, we could do it today. I'm not from Missouri, but after reading the accounts of the previous Vanguard mishaps, I have to be shown.

Larry Fuhrer, John O'Kesson, Gary Forbes and Byron Fox (left to right) are the members of the Varsity Quartet.

Comments in Kem by David Kemp

I notice the weather keeps catching the flu, but love is going free. With boxes of candy coming to even the un­claimed Faculty. It's nice that on our campus we have sweet with the bitter. For as things are if we did not we'd all be in a twitter. For bills go up, so many expenses to be met; I've only got two speakers working in my hi-fi set. Yes, things are "bad but still we've had activities galore. I know for I have viewed them all, straight from the kitchen door. One of the biggest things, of course, that's happened here this time, was the fashion show but I don't know just how I'll make it rhyme. Oh! here we go, I've got it now, I was about to say; Those Home Ec. girls when they make things, they really make them gay. They used up all the styles we have and I think from foreign nations. They modeled them and I must say they had some great crea­tions.

But wait, about a week before there were impersona­tions. We spoke the facts but the teachers think our own imaginations. The Ides of March and St. Patty's Day alas are all but past, but, ah I see a banquet now coming upon us fast. You fellows date the girls up now and brighten up their day. Don't do just what I always do, for once do as I say.

Stop! Do Not Read This Run!

The Marion College Journal in concern over the talk about In­ter-Continental Ballistic Missiles published the following helpful hints for what to do in case of an air raid:

(1) "Run like everything. If you are inside, run out; if you are outside, run in. It doesn't matter where you run, so long as you run.

(2) "Always yell like bloody murder. It adds to the confusion

'and scares.. .little kids. (3) "If you find an unexplod-

ed bomb, shake it. The pin might be stuck. If it goes off, lie down—your are dead.

(4) "If an incendiary bomb falls in your yard, throw gaso­line on it. You can't put it out, so you might as well have some fun.

(5) "Always eat plenty of gar­lic, onions, and limburger cheese before you enter an air raid shelter. It will not make you very popular, but will alleviate the crowded condition.

(6) "Don't pay any attention to the Air Raid Warden. If he won't get out of your way... knock him down. (He's only try­ing to save places for his friends.)

(7) "If you are a victim of a direct hit, don't go to pieces. Lie down and no one will notice you.

(8) "Above all, remember, when in danger, or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout."
