Old North Park Residence
Becomes Part of Campus
Immediately south of the men's dormitory on Spaulding avenue
stands a three story frame house which to North Parkers has always
seemed a part of the campus, although actually it has just recently been
purchased by the school. Sixty years ago it was always referred to as the
Leaf house; in more recent years,
occupied by a family named Cedar,
it was called the Cedar house; now
perhaps it might be called the "Ce-darleaf"
house.
Built by John Leaf, (Johan Ltd,
in Swedish) pioneer on Chicago's
northwest side, it was erected at
about the same time as Old Main,
that is in 1893, and it was then one
of only four or five houses in the
entire North Park community.
Mr. and Mrs. Leaf, lived for many
years in the house, renting out
rooms to students. They became,
as it were, patron saints of North
Park's young people, and were
known as Father and Mother Leaf.
An article published in 1897 in a
magazine called Linnea, entitled
"School Life at North Park in '94,"
says:
"I had the good fortune of find-ing
a pleasant home with father
and mother Leaf immediately upon
my arrival at North Park. One
could not help being cheerful and
happy in a home of that kind.
Mother Leaf was a favorite among The "Singing Ministers" from
the students, and the old gentle- Sweden, appearing in chapel on
man was everybody's delight. A Monday, sang a program of popular
father's love and a mother's sym- religious and conservative classical

Although it was known primarily when North Park was in its infancy,
as the Leaf house, it was also rec- seemed particularly to appeal to

it became even more inti- eers.
mately connected with the school,
for A. N. Ahnfeldt was a professor
in the language department of the
college and in the seminary. Mrs.
Ahnfeldt, who came to the house
as a bride in 1902, now a widow
living in the school community, re-called
that some of her happiest
memories are connected with that
building.
The house has thus been closely
related to North Park for many
years, but the school did not com-pletely
possess it until August, 1953
This summer it was re-decorated
and is now being used as a resi-dence
for faculty members, being
occupied by the families of Dean
Albin Erickson; Carroll Peterson,
college biology teacher: and the
school nurse, Mrs. Alton Peterson
and her husband.

President Nelson
On Campus After
Trip to Europe
The North Park school scene was
completed last Saturday when Pres-ident
Clarence Nelson arrived on
the campus after an extensive trip
to Europe as an official representa-tive
of the Covenant denomination.
The trip, which he termed "strenu-ous,
but enjoyable," included a
week in England, two conferences
of evangelical churches, and a long
speaking itinerary in Sweden.
Arriving in South Hampton, Eng-land
on August 25 after the "only
restful part of the trip," a voyage
on the ocean-liner United States,
Fresident and Mrs. Nelson spent
live days in London.
Then the Nelsons left for the
first of the two conferences, this
one in Holland. The conference,
which included representatives from
nine countries, was held under the
aspuices of the "International Fed-eration
of Free Evangelical Church-es."
The second conference was held
in Ewersbach, Germany. This con-ference
was primarily theological
and included the participat:on of
130 German ministiells including
twelve from the Eastern zone. Also
included on the agenda of the pro-p
am were meetings of the various
presidents of theological seminaries
from several countries. Over the
Labor day week-end in Germany,
the Nelsons stayed with air force
chaplain, Eric Danielson, whose
son, Wendell, is attending North
Park this year as a freshman.
While discussing his experiences
in Germany, Nelson commented on
the spirit and energy of the Ger-mans.
"I can't help but te impress-ed
with the industry of the Ger-mans.
They're working long and
hard and getting somewhere." He
also pointed out that he was very
impressed with the Christian young
people in Germany and especially
their "amazing love for singing."
He stated that every church in
Germany had a wonderful young
people's choir and recalled one
comparatively small church that
had an A Cappella choir composed
of eighty young people.

Voegler Speaks at
Young GOP Affair
Using The United States. Last
Great Hope of Mankind" as his
topic, Robert Vogeler, an American
businessman who was held by the
Communists on false charges, spoke
at the first meeting of the North
Park Young Republican's Club held
yesterday in Nyvall Hall. Mike
Powers, president of the organiza-tion,
in his introductory remarks,
stressed the importance of political
participation on the campus.
During the next month the club
plans to participate actively in the
senatorial campaign, "Speakers,
prominent in the news will be
featured at coming meetings," said
Powers. The group is an affiliate
of the National Congress of Young
Republican Clubs and has the sanc-tion
of the central committee of
the Illinois Republican party.
Ekstam Speaker for Week;
Counseling Periods Offered
With "Let's Investigate" as the subject of his sermon, Burton Nelson,
pastor of the Evanston Covenant church, opened the annual Christian
Emphasis Week at the chapel service last Friday morning. Pointing up
the week's theme of an "Invitation to Life," Nelson paved the way for the
featured
speaker, Har-ry
Ekstam,
superintend-ent
of the
Princeton
Children's
• ' Home.
He opened
his series
Monday eve-ning
in Issac-son
Chapel by
presenting
the topic
"Let's Be Dif-ferent."
Last
night, with the aid of a discussion
group, he considered the question
"What's Your Job?"
Appearing before the entire col-lege
for the first time this morning
in chapel, Mr. Ekstam titled his
sermon "This Is Where You Be-long."
With a service tonight and
tomorrow night in Isaacson Chapel,
and a chapel talk Friday the 1954
Christian Emphasis Week concludes.
"Opportunities will be provided
during the day for discussion
groups to be held, if so desired,"
commented Chaplain J. Irving
Erickson. He added, "The speaker
will also be available during the
day on Thursday and Friday for
counseling."

Becker, Lyon, Hit
HomeRuleProblem
Last night in the North Park
auditorium, Benjamin Becker. 40th
ward alderman, and Loverett S.
Lyon, Chairman of the Chicago
Home Rule Committee, discussed
the topic, "Should Chicago's Form
of Government Be Changed?" This
discussion represented the third in
a series of four discussions titled,
"Chicago Government and Politics."
One week ago last night, Oct. 5,
the topic, "How Can We Save Our
Neighborhoods?" was discussed by
Alderman Robert Merriam of the
fifth ward and Julien Levy, a mem-ber
of the Southeast Commission.
Mr. Levy, a graduate of the Uni-versity
of Chicago and a local law-yer,
started the meeting by opening
with the statement, "I'm not so
sure that we can save our neigh-borhoods."
He went on to explain
that "the problems of the neigh-borhoods
are linked to Chicago as
a whole" and "the first requisite
turns on the kind and character of
the government of the entire city."
Mr. Levy closed his remarks by say-ing
that the whole problem boiled
down to whether the citizens of
Chicago care enough about their
neighborhoods. "If we do," he said,
"then we have the answer."
Alderman Merriam, who also
serves as chairman of the coun-cil's
housing and emergency crime
committees, prefaced his remarks
with the statement, "The problems
concerned with neighborhoods are
psychological and not so easy to
solve." After listing certain reasons
why neighborhoods are being de-stroyed
and attacking certain ex-amples
of corruptness in the police
force, he closed his remarks by say-ing,
"The Job is not hopeless. If
there is a will to create neighbor-hoods
which are better places in
which to live, we will succeed."
Earland Carlson, a North Park
faculty member, then called for
directed and general questions from
the floor. One question asked Mr.
Merriam if he was planning to run
for the office of mayor and he
answered it by saying, "If I did,
would you vote for me?"
The last in the series will be next
Tuesday night

On Success
IT ISN'T SO DUCKY
When, on Groucho Marx's You Bet Your Life, a
contestant says the secret word, a stuffed duck flut-ters
down from the ceiling with money clutched in
its bill. The secret word in the world today seems to
be success. Achieve it and the world is your oyster.
The common goal of almost eery college student is
success. Successful doctors, successful businessmen,
successful homemakers, successful anything is the aim.
But aren't we successes already? Didn't we get a
good mark on that theme in English the other day
Didn't we get a date with "The One" for the hayride?
Didn't we get elected to that office at the club meet-ing
last week? We're successes. It just came flopping
down from the ceiling.
Oh, is that right:
We may have experienced accomplishment but 1,uc-cess
will never be measured by any particular achieve-ment,
or by our rank on the social scale, or even by
the power of our position. Rather it will be measured
by our own feelings when we appraise ourselves.
True success is a long way off for most of us if
self-appraisal is carried on realistically. Our minor
accomplishments are only the beginning of a long road.
success is very possible but it will not come fluttering
down every time we say the secret word. Success is
earned.
Letters to the Editor
The Guy's All Wet
Dear Editor,
Far be it from me to stifle any good, clean college
fun but being doused by water thrown by some over-grown
adolescent is not the way to have a good time.
Granted, there may be some fiendish pleasure in
dumping a glass of water out of a dorm window on
aninnocent passer-by but is this the way college men
act?
Are we in school to learn to have our clothes
ruined by a synthetic rainstorm? Are we here to get
an education or to suffocate under a pile of instant
shaving cream? Frankly, I don't know what to do?
Threats by the powers-that-be don't seem to work.
Maybe your readers can help.
Yours truly,
Drenched
Dear Drenched,
Have you tried carrying an umbrella? It seems to
be the coming thing. Editor
MEL THE
SWEDI SH
SPANIEL
I'm just practicing for Monday night. There are so
few social events around here anyway, I sure don't
want to miss this one. You won't have to miss it either.
It's going to be at the Arcadia Rink, 4444 N. Broadway
and you can get Student Council tickets at the Book
store. It'll be a lot of fun and you'll enjoy it—even if
you come from Minnesota.
Prexy Returns RULES GIVEN ON
PARKING CRISIS
Clarence A. Nelson
From Germany, Nelson started on
his preaching tour, which included
three cities in Germany, one each
in Denmark and Norway, and eight
in Sweden. While in Sweden, the
Neiscns visited the birthplaces of
their par( nts, an epexrience which
gave them a -strange feeling."
Because of the acute parking
problem in the neighborhood, the
following directive has been issued
by J. F. Burgh, vice president and
business manager:
Students who can come to the
campus by public transportation
are uged to do so.
Parking is allowed in front of
school owned property only. The
following streets are bordered by
school property: west side of Chris-tiana
from 5116 and north to the
alley; on the east side, the vacant
lot on which is the stone walk; west
side of Spaulding: The seminary
frontage and also the men's dorm.
The entire east side with the ex-ception
of "No Parking" zones.
South of the river on the west
side of the street from the bridge
to Carmen avenue.
Commenting on the poor attend-ance
of the young people at the
religious services in Sweden, Nel-son
said he noticed a "different
tone" in Sweden than he had in
Germany and Holland.

Homecoming Plans
Started by Council
Appearing before a combined
homecoming committee, last Wed-nesday
in Sohlberg lounge, home-coming
chairman Barbara Johnson
outlined the
plans for the fall
week end. No-vember
5 was set
for the opening
of the annual
festivities.
S h e stressed
the need for
building decora-
Barbara Johnson tions and floats.
"Prizes will be
awarded in both categories," she
said. "The Alumni Board will pre-sent
awards for building decora-tions
on the basis of originality,
durability, interest attraction, and
general appearance," she continued.
The same factors apply to the stu-dent
council prize for floats.
"We all want the 1954 Home-coming
to be the best ever," con-cluded
the Seattle sophomore, "and
if we all pitch in and help I'm
sure it will be."
_Ancient _Art Out oi Shjk
By John Jonsson
A recent informal poll taken among customers in
the Cafeteria revealed that nearly all of the students
think the murals on the walls of the "Cat" are archaic,
poorly drawn and generally lacking in appeal.
One student interviewed said that he noticed the
murals the first time he visited the Cafeteria, located
In the basement of the Men's building, but has paid
no attention to them since then. Another pointed out
that the pictures lack all traces of life. Citing the
panel on the East wall which depicts a football game,
he assured me that Captain Carl Blomgren certainly
didn't have the serene, unruffled look when he was
crashing the line at Winnemac park last Saturday
that the blue-shirted plunger on the wall is exhibit-ing.
Our attention was also directed to what appeared
to be Northwestern University's stadium in the back-ground,
packed to the rafters with loyal rooters.
The art-work in the West section of the Men's
dorm's answer to Hernando's Hideaway is equally poor,
pointed out several interviewees, showing us where the
snow from a Swedish winter scene was drifting onto
a summer encampment on the fjord through the bat-tleship-
grey dividing line.
To show how completely out of their time the draw-ings
are, we noticed pictures of girls wearing war-time-
style dresses, and although we would be the first
to admit that it would be necessary to hire a full-time
artist to keep changing the length of the skirts
according to the latest trends in women's wearing
apparel, we think that there should be a change of
some sort.
Another example of the near-antiquity of the
pictures are the faces of school teachers and officials
who are no longer connected with North Park. When
closely examining the faces of the dignitaries we were
able to recognize only two of the persons depicted.
Although we are sure that each of the pictures, poorly
drawn as they are, has a special meaning to alumni
of the class of '37, and that we are running the risk
of drawing their ire down upon us after spending
only four weeks at our school, we feel that most—if
not all--of the pictures should be replaced.
To redecorate the "Cat" would be no simple proj-ect,
we know. It would be better to leave the place
in its present condition than to bring in a crew to
cover the pictures with a coat of solid -color paint.
However, the perfect answer to the problem seems
to us to be that the Student Council, the Men's Dorm
Council or a joint action of the Freshman and Sopho-more
classes could improve the "Caf" in a way that
would not make the new decorations obsolete again
in 15 or 20 years.
Our school has students who certainly could ex-hibit
more artistic talent than did the creator of the
scenes depicted at the present time. Maybe a contest
could be held to pick an artist or team of artists to
redecorate the drab walls with paintings that would
be more apropos than those that are there now. Per-haps
a set of panels could be painted that would re-create
scenes of World, American, Religious and or
North Park History, being careful that the artists
stay away from personalities that would be unknown
a few years from now; or, they could design wall dec-orations
showing the different buildings on the cam-pus,
allowing space to add new buildings as they are
constructed. Maybe the readers have some suggestions
for subjects to be honored in this way. If they do,
they are urged to send them to the News. Any and
all suggestions are welcome

Music School Adds Former Editors
New Voice Tutor Achieve Fame
Newest addition to the Music
School staff is Mrs. Eva Coleman
Harper, who will teach voice. She
succeeds Miss Marcia Sandahl, who
has resigned after serving at North
Park for fourteen years.
Mrs. Harper, who has sung pro-fessionally
since the age of 18,
graduated from the North Park
music school in 1946. While attend-ing
school she sang at the Chicago
Temple, a position which she held
for seven years, and performed var-ious
other singing duties to finance
her way through school. She also
•
Eva Coleman Harper
won the E. Clifford Toren award,
given to the outstanding singer at
North Park.
After leaving North Park, Mrs.
Harper continued her voice studies
at the Evanston campus of North-western
University where she grad-uated
after one year of study with
a bachelor's degree in music edu-cation.
While at the school she was
a member of Phi Kappa Lambda,
a music society.
Since completing her formal edu-cation,
Mrs. Harper has continued
her interest, both in North Park
and in music. A staff singer for
radio station WMBI, she had served
on the voice staff of the Austin
Academy of Fine Arts up to this
year. Serving on the Alumni Board
of this school has also kept keen
her interest in the activities of the
school at which she now teaches.
Besides teaching at the music
school on Tuesday and Thursday
afternoons, Mrs. Harper has a full
time job at home, taking care of
her two children.

The article concerned an expedi-tion
to capture 300 deadly snakes.
Lansing and a photographer ac-companied

Odd little presents are appearing in
the girls dorms--Caroline Hall was
recently blessed with a cute little

The recent football games have
provided the occasion for NPC girls
to follow the college sports clothes

LACK OF SCHOOL
SPIRIT THIS YEAR
IS DISTRESSING
I think a look at the "crowds"
from North Park at our first foot-ball
game gives a pretty good im-pression
of the spirit of the student
body of our school has. Although
Wheaton is a long way from Lane
Tech Stadium where the game was
played, there were almost as many
Wheaton rooters as North Park
fans.
This is disgusting, since the sta-dium
is centrally located, and easy
ti get to, especially since many
students drive cars. Although this
article is written before the Luther
South game, it is evident from the
meager sale of bus tickets, that this
game will be no different.
Although this is not a sports
page, it is necessary to urge all of
the readers of this paper to give
their full support to their teams.
Our teams cannot be expected to
cive their all to win the game when
there is no one to cheer them on.
This is mentioned at all of our
pep rallies but it seems to be of
little effect.
Not only your teams need back-ine
from the student body, but this
paper, the Cupola staff, your class
officers, the student council, and
the religious council also. Without
your support they cannot function
properly although there will be
many complaints when any of them
do not.
Speaking of class officers, I no-tice
that not all of our classes have
selected theirs. Let's get on the
ball. How can anything be done
without organization
The first school roller-skating
party will be held at Arcadia Rink
on Monday, October 18. The price is
only sixty cents. I think at this
low price everyone should be able
to go unless some cruel teacher
pours on the homework. Let's see
everyone there and let's start to
get back some of that old school
spirit that North Park has evi-dently
lost.

STAFF SELECTED
FOR 1955 CUPOLA
Editors of the Academy section
of the 1953 Cupola, North Park's
annual, have been selected, and the
announcement of the staff was
made last week by E. Gustav John-son,
faculty sponsor of student
publications.
The members of the staff are:
Don Andler, Ardith Anderson, and
Jon Rasmussen, editors; Janel Mul-der
and JoAnn Kindermann, asso-ciate
editors; and Robert Hyland
and Lael Johnson, sports editors. If
necessary, additional members will
be appointed, said Mr. Johnson.
Last Thursday group pictures of
the Counseling groups were taken
for the yearbook. Pictures of the
clubs and organizations will be
taken soon.
Individual graduation pictures
will also be taken soon. The studio
doing the photographic work this
year is the Varde Studio on Foster
avenue, near Kimball. This makes
it convenient for the graduates to
have their studio pictures taken.
Little New Teacher
Discovered at NP
In the last issue of the News we
told about this year's new Academy
teachers, but one of them was in-advertently
missed. She is Mrs. Rita
Smoker, a young lady who teaches
a section of freshman English here.
She also supervises the remedial
reading class.
Mrs. Smoker graduated from
Goshen College in Goshen, Indiana,
where she majored in speech and
English. Her husband is a student
at the Northwestern University
Medical School.

MANY STUDENTS IN THE DARK
ABOUT BACKGROUND OF SCHOOL
S.E.M.C.—As Seen Through Trees in Front of Old Main.
Have you noticed the letters chiseled in the stone above the portico
of the front entrance to Old Main? What letters? Oh, yes! And we have
been around here for years and haven't ever noticed them until now!
They read: S. E. M. C. College.
What do the four letters SEMC
stand for?—was the question of the
inquiring reporter. It is undoubt-edly
true that most of North Park's CAMPUS STYLES
students are in the dark about the
history and background of the
school, for only a very few had any
idea regarding the meaning of the As usual, North Park's Campus is
letters, decked out in the latest style:
Headbands of various designs and
colors. Some lasses sporting this
fad are Gayle and Barb Gustafson,
Sandy Dahlstrom, Kathie Eerie, La
Donna Sundae, Ardith Anderson,
and Sally Kennedy.
UNDER SCRUTINY
The reporter got some very pe-culiar
interpretations when he went
around asking for explanations of
the letters. The following are those
of some of the more "promising"
students:
Peter Tufo: "Silly Elephants Mur-dering
Cats." Doug Adams: "Snakes
Excite Male Cockroaches." Sally
Kennedy: "Sally Envies Mice Com-pletely."
Linda Berry: "Social Eth-ics
Medical Corporation." Cliff
Falkenhayn: "Small Eagle's Moun-tain
Chamber."
Others that had goofy ideas were:
Carlo Tucker: "Swedish Ear Mend-ing
Company." Sue Mooers: "Sue
Eats Meat Cooked." Barb Benja-min:
"Seminary-Education-Music-
Cooking." Maryanne Schuderer:
"Stew Exterminates My Care."
(How silly can you get?)
Not all students were as fumbl-ing
as the nuts cited. There were
actually some who were on the
right trail: they thought the "S"
must stand for Swedish or "sven-ska;"
the "E" for "ethical," "ex-perimental,"
or "evergreen:" the
"M" for "modern, although many
said "mission;' the "C" stood for
"Christian" for most, but quite a
few thought of "Covenant."
The fact is, of course, that the
letters stand for Swedish Evangel-ical
Mission Covenant. At least
three students guessed correctly:
Paul Hanson, Dick Larson, and Rol-and
Sandstrom.
The chiseled stone was inserted
in the wall as an ornament when
Old Main was built in 1893.
Brains Capture Trophies
Preston Kelly, who graduated
from North Park a year ago last
June, was winner of the Phi Beta
Kappa freshman award at Carleton
college, Northfield, Minn.
Another North Parker, Robert
Hill '52, got the PBK Sophomore
award. Both boys have many friends
here who congratulate them on
their achievement.
Last Thursday the usual school
costume came in second when Jean
Hoefner, Marilynn Strandine, Nan-cy
Mulder, Joyce Mullery, Beverly
Peterson, Judie Mooers, Barb Alex-ander.
Judy Schrieber, and Nel
Chodd wore kilts to class. To com-plete
the ensemble, they also wore
knee socks and loafers. They and
the rest of us were pleasantly sur-prised
by the faculty's reaction.
Another old, yet new trend is
taking North Parkers by storm—
the sailor-style middy blouses such
as have been seen on Lois Cowen,
Nancy Mulder, Ann Johnson and
Carol Tucker.
Especially cute was Betty Mar-kos's
white Jersey middy, trimmed
in red. Ropes have completely over-run
North Park, for everywhere you
look, there are ropes of every pos-sible
color and design. It looks as
if the new styles are taken from
the '20's!
Gay Parties Begin
The Social Whirl
Well the school session started
off with a bang. Two parties were
under way by the third week of
school, one at the house of Sandra
Dahlstrom and the other at the
home of Ardith Anderson.
Seen together at the home of
Sandy were: Barbara Benjamin and

Annual Christian
Emphasis Week in
Full Swing Again
For eighteen years now, North
Park has annually designated one
week of the first semester as Chris-tian
Emphasis Week.
Because North Park has a religi-ous
background, the students are
happy to have enthusiastic and
challenging speakers on campus for
these special weeks. This year the
speakers are Glenn Lindell, pastor
of the Covenant Church of Gales-burg,
Illinois, who will speak to the
juniors and seniors in Isaacson
chapel, and Dwight Elving, pastor
of the Ravenswood Covenant
Church here in Chicago, who will
speak to the freshman and sopho-more
classes in Hanson 23.
Both of these preachers have
graduated from the junior college
and seminary at North Park. Be-sides
their church work they have
been active in promoting Hi-League
organizations and working with
Dwight E. Living
young people in camps and larger
conferences. This is the second
time North Park has been privil-edged
to hear them during Chris-tian
Emphasis Week.
The theme this year is "Invita-tion
to Life." The program is as
follows: Monday, the "Singing Min-isters"—
male chorus from Sweden
—rendered a much appreciated
program for the Academy in the
Gym. The topics to be considered
during the rest of the week are:
On Tuesday, "Let's Investigate!"
On Wednesday, "And Why Not?"
On Thursday, "Let's Be Different!"
On Friday, "Can You Afford this?"
There will be counseling on
Thursday at the 10:20 period when
opportunity will be given students
to discuss the sermons of the week
with the preachers. In addition
the speakers will conduct discus-sion
periods during lunch assem-blies.

Pete and Ted
Steve and Jim
Comments from the Coach
As the second football game of
the year comes to a glorious close,
we salute the "men" on the Blue
and Gold. Pete Tufo, more often
referred to as "Pufo," showed how
a guard should play football. He
leaves his crutches in the car every
morning so people will admire the
gruesome sores on his face. But he
showed that football players have
guts by posing for pictures Satur-day
night. More power to Pete!
Ted Sares, often called "Hero" by
several members of the team, has
promised not to juggle the ball
when tackled on the two-yard line.
Ted, with his extremely masculine
face, gallops to practice every day
only to find that there are no
Tribune photographers waiting for
him.
"Steve and Jim" are as familiar
around Camupus as root beer and
pretzels. A winning combination as
they have proved many times. Over-heard
is Steve's favorite poem:
"Roses is Red and Steve is Blue."
The students wonder if Jim is as
Witty on the field as he is in Pete's
car. The answer is "no" as he is
very serious on the fifty-yard line.
We have just tried to show the
intimate but dull life of the fabu-lous
football team of North Park.
Just a passing thought and it
should pass I : "Does Chuck Walther
take a bath?"

First Game Lost
To Wheaton in
Heartbreaker
North Park lust its first game of
the 1954 season by a score of 18 to
6. playing Wheaton Academy on
Saturday, Oct. 2 in a muddy and
slippery Lane Tech Stadium. The
score would have been different if
it had not been for fumbles and
bad centers. In the first quarter,
Turinsky returned the kick-off
some 30 yards, but to no avail, as
for some unknown reason N. P.
chose to quick-kick on the third
down on the 50-yard line. After re-turning
the punt, Wheaton moved
down the field at will, but fumbled
on the N. P. 25-yard line.
During the second quarter which
was wet from a sudden heavy
downpour of rain, Wheaton, with a
sneering grin, struck like lightning.
They scored on a 30-yard pass-and-run
combination. The point after
touchdown was missed. Late in that
same quarter, Wheaton scored again
on a 10-yard run. Again the P.A.T.
was missed.
Starting the second half, North
Park received the kick-off and
Queen returned it 35 yards and the
Blue and Gold was on their TD"

through the line by Queen and
Corrigan and featuring a 20-yard
run by Turinsky, N. P. reached four
first downs. Then on Wheaton's
two-yard line, with a wet ball, a
fumble occurred and Wheaton re-covered.
Early in the fourth quarter
Wheaton again scored on a short
pass and for the third time missed
on the point after touchdown. Late
in the game, North Park finally
came through and made marks in
the scoring column on a beautiful
pass from Queen to Turinsky with
Steve running 50 yards for the six
points.
Lael Johnson showed that he
could replace Ted Sares' shoes on
a second's notice by playing wing-back
for the first time in his life.
Ted was injured in practice on
Wednesday and Lael had to learn
the plays overnight.
Here's
Our
Team
Fred Wiedenbauer, one of North
Park's starting tackles, is playing
his second year of varsity football.
Fred, or "Wheaties," weighs 175 and
stands about
511", although
last year at this
time he weighed
over 200. He
came from Our
Saviour Luther-an
School, start-ing
at North
Park as a fresh-man.
Fred, who is
playing his sec-ond
year of varsity football, likes
many sports but he believes that
nothing can beat a good game of
football. Besides sports Fred is at-tracted
to girls, especially one par-ticular
North Parker, and he also
likes to tinker around with cars.
In his spare time Fred works at a
hot dog stand. His favorite college
team is Wisconsin, and he thinks
Don Ameche of Wisconsin is one of
the best in Big Ten competition.
Although he's not sure about what
he wants to do after college, Fred
thinks he would like to go into
some field of agriculture.
About the team Fred states, "The
Wheaton game was a tough one to
lose but all the rest will be hard
too, especially the game with Luther
South. We have a good line and
good backs and with a little more
coordination between the two we
can have a winning team."

Vikings Back in League Race; Ac
Defeat Luther South 18 to 6 Ad
Last Saturday, playing Luther
South, North Park bounced back
on the victory trail, after its loss
to Wheaton. In the role of an un-derdog,
N. P. played spirited ball;
the team was bolstered by the re-turn
of Ted Sares to the line-up.
First Quarter
After receiving the opening kick-off
it looked as if N. P. would
march down the field for a score
when we ran out of downs. Spear-heading
the drive was Jim Queen
who rattled off a 32 yard run.
After an exchange of punts we
again gained possession of the ball.
On the first play from the mid-stripe
Queen went back to throw
and hit Lael Johnson with a pass
on the L. S. 22 yard line. He made
a beautiful grab as there were two
defenders right there with him.
Queen then passed to Sares who
ran to the 11, where Turinsky took
the pigskin and scored. The PAT.
was missed.
With L. S. having the ball the
quarterback went back to pass, but
as he was to be tackled he let go of
the ball. It was a wobbly pass in
which Sares intercepted and ran
back 45 yards for a touchdown.
Second Quarter
The second quarter was slow; the
defenses were very stiff. Punting
was the main factor of this quarter
of which Turnisky did a very fine
job.
Third Quarter
In the third quarter L. S. finally
scored on a twenty-yard pass play.
Point after touchdown was missed.
During this quarter L. S. showed
signs of coming to life, but our
defense held steadily.
Fourth Quarter
Mid-way in the fourth quarter
when it looked as if L. S. were
going for a TD, they also ran out
of downs and had to punt We re-taliated
a few plays later with a
punt too, but their safety man
fumbled and we recovered, and
started a drive. Using the unex-pected
pass at this time we it two
go and completed them both to
Ted Sares. From the 5 Turinsky
plunged over. For the third con-secutive
time we missed the PAT.
In this game the pass &tense
was exceptionally good, thanks to
Jim Fox, John Corrigan, Jim Queen,
and Ted Sares. Jim Matson and
Wiedenbaur were always in the L. S.
backfield. Bob Hyland did a good
job of centering. Frank Dietschak,
although hampered by a bad leg,
played well throughout, as did Pete
Tufo who suffered slight injuries.
Ken Swensson suffered a dislo-cated
right shoulder, but we are
happy to hear he will be playing
again in a week or two. Next week

Meaningful Experience
Admissions Commission
" Admits Seminary Students
"Members of this commission, I
introduce to you John Smith who
will tell us about himself. Mr.
Smith."
"Gentlemen, I was born . . . I be-came
a Christian . . ."
Nine men, who through a study
of the applicant's record are al-ready
acquainted with him, listen
as the prospective Seminary stu-dent
tells them of his life, his spir-itual
experience, sense of God's call
and personal motivations for en-tering
the ministry.
After the talk the student is ques-tioned
by the group. He is then
excused and the commission votes
whether or not to admit him to the
Seminary. Unfavorable action by
the group would mean that the
applicant cannot be admitted as a
trainee for the Seminary.
This is a student's introduction
to the North Park Theological Sem-inary
— his examination by the
Covenant's Commission on Admis-sions.
"It is an experience which Sem-inary
students fear but really be-comes
meaningful," states Dean
Eric G. Hawkinson of the Seminary.
The commission, which meets
each year early in May and early
in September, is composed of the
president of the Mission Covenant,
Theodore W. Anderson; the presi-dent
of North Park, Clarence A. Nel-son;
the dean of the Seminary,
Eric G. Hawkinson; the secretary of
home missions, Joseph C. Danielson;
secretary of foreign missions, Ralph
P. Hanson; two members of the
board of education, Russell H.
Moline, pastor of the First Cove-nant
church, Chicago, and Mrs.
K. E. Tholin, Hinsdale, Ill.; and two
members of the Covenant minis-terial
board, Herbert E. Palmquist,
pastor of the Redeemer Covenant
church, Chicago, and Albert J.
Bengtson, pastor of the First Cove-nant
church, Youngstown, Ohio.
After each meeting of the com-mission,
a full report of the pro-ceedings
is submitted to the board
of education and the Seminary fac-ulty.
Favorable action by the com-mission
concerning an applicant
means a recommendation to the
Worker Discusses
Japanese Mission
Mrs. Harry Engeman. Covenant
missionary to Japan, told Mission-ary
Volunteers Monday evening, Oct.
4. that even thouiih their civiliza-tion
is old and their culture devel-oped,
Japanese young people aren't
able to attend school as American
young people do.
All Japanese young people attend
kindergarten. However, high school
is limited by examination and high
tuition rates and college by more
examinations and higher tuition
rates.
The Engeman's have worked with
the students and young people of
Japan. This they have done through
Youth for Christ meetings and or-ganized
Bible studies. When a young
person becomes a Christian, he or
she is likely to meet much persecu-tion,

Then the approved applicants
are presented at a Seminary con-vocation
held the first Sunday of
the new school year, this year Sun-day,
Sept. 19. The following day
the student begins his preparation
for the ministry—three years of
academic work and a year of in-ternship.
However, before a student can
graduate from the Seminary, he
must again appear before the com-mission.
This time he is examined
with respect to spiritual fitness
and general qualifications for the
Christian ministry. The decisions
of the commission determine fit-ness
for the Covenant ministry and
therefore are recommended to the
ministerial board.
Evanston Pastor Tells
Impressions of WCC
The reverent and exalted view of
Jesus Christ found at the second
assembly of the World Council of
Churches was the main impression
received by the Rev. Burton Nelson,
pastor of the Evanston Covenant
church, who attended the assembly.
Nelson told his impressions to
members of the Seminary Forum
Thursday, Sept. 30, in a talk en-titled,
"Report from Evanston." "In
all of the speeches Jesus was not
talked of as the great teacher or
example but as the Christ who died
for our sins, who rose again . . ."
he said.
Nelson also found a great theo-logical
depth at the assembly.
"Delegates were aware of the great
problems in theology today and of
recent trends," he said.
Nelson was impressed by the rich
diversity of tradition as delegates
shared opinions and convictions,
the apparent impossibility of uni-formity,
the contritutions of the
younger churches particularly the
church of South India foi med two
years ago and the genuineness of
Christian fellowship.
However, Nelson felt the program
was too strenuous and that partici-pation
by lay people was lacking.
He wondered how great theological
issues could be pass:id on by such
assemblies.
North Park Dec

Chapel Echoes
School Observes
Founder's Day
We should not despise the day
of small beginnings," Theodore W.
Anderson, president of the Mission
Covenant, said at a Founder's day
chapel service Monday, Oct. 4.
Seventy years ago Erik August
Skogsbergh began a school in his
home in Minneapolis. In 1891 the
Covenant voted to take over the
school which was now meeting in
the First Covenant church, Minne-apolis.
Three years later the school
was moved to Chicago and David
Nyvall became its president. Tuition
was $12 a semester and board and
room $12 a month. "In deed, this
was a day of small beginnings,"
Anderson said.
The convictions of these pioneers
were that life demands preparation
and training and that the right
kind of an education is a Christian
education, Anderson said.
A Christian education includes
knowledge about Christ through
personal experience and service for
Him.
Unbelief
"North Park is not asking you to
believe everything, but we want to
place the evidence before you,"
Chaplain J. Irving Erickson said at
the Monday, Sept. 27, chapel serv-ice.
"You may be a believer in Christ
and have unbelief in many areas of
your life," Erickson said. Attitudes
of unbelief are indifference—giving
no thought to the matter—and hy-pocracy.
"We believe Christ is present on
lege, seminary, music and religious
education departments.
Twenty-five re.igious groups are
represented on the campus. Three
students gave no preference and
two indicated "nothing."
The census is as follows: Mission
Covenant, 427; Lutheran, 60; Bap-tist,
26; Presbyterian, 14; Methodist,
15; Congregational, 8; Independent
Community, 6; Independent Bible,

our campus but many times we
penalize Christ because of our atti-tudes
of unbelief," he stated.
Perilous Faith
Faith is perilous when it becomes
an end in itself, the Rev. A. Eldon
Palmquist, pastor of the North
Park Covenant church, told North
Park students Wednesday, Oct. e.
Speaking in chapel on the "Perils
of Faith," Palmquist said that one
such peril is pride. "We become
proud of our faith," he said, "but
when we look at Jesus we see a
humble man. True faith should
make us humble and generous."
Another peril of faith is that we
become less charitable with those
who do not agree with us. "We be-come
particularly happy when we
find within someone with whom we
do not agree something more with
which we do not agree. We look for
e‘il and we find evil," he said.
Psalm 23
Christ not only shows us the way,
he walks with us on the way, the
Rev. Victor Nyquist, pastor of the
First Covenant church, Los Angeles,
Calif., said in chapel Wednesday,
Sept. 29.
Nyquist discussed Psalm 23. He
said that five stopping places are
mentioned: paths of righteousness
or right paths, green pastures, still
waters, the yolk}, of the shadow of
di,ath and the house of the Lord.

WILSON FALLS TO VIKINGS, 13-6
Garretson Leads North Park
To Initial Conference Win
Paced by Halfback Zeke Garret-son,
North Park swept to a 13-6
triumph over Wilson Saturday at
Winnemac Park. Scoring in the
first quarter on a fifteen-yard
jaunt by Garretson and in the fi-nal
period on a wild and wooly
Garretson-to-Connors pass play, the
Vikings registered their second
win and an important conference
victory.
Wilson took the opening kick-off,
but a tight Viking defense forced
them to punt. Taking over on their
own 34-yard line, North Park be-gan
the long march upheld. Bruce
Erickson sauntered up the middle
for fifteen yards, then Garretson
unleashed a long pass to Mike Paull
on Wilson's 25-yard stripe. Kirby
Crosno powered his way to a first
down setting up the play that sent
Garretson around right end for the
touchdown. Dick Peterson's extra
point attempt was wide of the up-rights.
North Park's one touchdown ad-vantage
began to loom large as the
game settled down into a defensive
Wheaton 'B' Tops
North Park, 20-14
Wheaton touchdowns in each of
the first three quarters combined
to set the Vikings down 20-14 in
a non-conference tilt at Wheaton
Academy Field on October 2. In
the second stanza North Park
matched an early Bomber score,
but the Wheaton aggregation was
quick to push to a two-touchdown
lead, a margin which a late Viking
rally couldn't trim.
After Wheaton had drawn first
blood early in the opening quarter,
the Norsemen grabbed a Bomber
punt and marched down to the
home team's four-yard line where
Bruce Erickson pitched a pass to
teammate Mike Paull in the end
zone for the score. Erickson faked
an extra-point kick then skirted
the end to tie the game, '7-7.
Late in the second period, a
crushing Wheaton ground game
rolled over the Viking defense for
another touchdown and a seven-point
margin at the half.
Bud Rappa yanked a pass out
of the hands of a Wheaton end to
open the third quarter, but a sub-sequent
fumble cost North Park the
ball and meant a set up for the
next Bomber score.
With time running out, the Vi-kings,
trailing 20-7, moved for a
quick touchdown, Jack Connors tal-lying
on a lateral-pass effort. Mike
Paull made good his try for the
extra point, narrowing Wheaton's
advantage to six points. A last min-ute,
forty-yard desperation drive
found the Norsemen yards short of
paydirt as the game ended with
Wheaton salvaging a 20-14 victory.

battle and the half ended with the
score 6-0.
The Norsemen took the third-quarter
kick on their own thirty,
but Wilson recovered a first-play
fumble and their revived offensive
punched to the North Park nine-yard
line where fullback Clarence
Collins outran the secondary into
Zeke Garretson
the end zone. Dick Peterson crash-ed
through to break up the conver-sion
effort and the score remained
6-6.
The deadlock looked permanent

the Wilson defenders. "Zeke"
managed to catch up with the loose
pigskin and to get off a long spiral
to End Jack Connors who was lurk-ing
on the sidelines. It was a simple
matter for Connors to grab the pass
and maneuver his way across the
goal line. Rod Sveiven furnished
added insurance by catching the
extra-point pass.
With minutes left, two Wilson
surges were stopped just short of
the goal, and a third seige was in
the making, but the 13-7 final had
not been disputed when time ran
out.

THOUGHTS ON A ZEBRA THEME
Somewhere on this page is a story
covering the Wheaton game of Oc-tober
2. It is a story which is to
be noted for its passivity and its
fairness. Actually, as is often the
case, it does not tell the whole tale.
What happened at Wheaton a week
and a half ago can now be exam-ined
in the emotionless light of
history.
What did happen at Wheaton a
week and a half ago? Superficially
it appeared that two groups of elev-en
men, one wearing gold and blue,
and the other a kind of orange,
met to play football. Superficially
they played football and occasion-ally
played it well. But underneath
all this was a tension. Tension
which involved three men, ostensib-ly
football officials.
One was dressed in the kind of
uniform that football referees tra-ditionally
wear. The other two
gentlemen were not dressed in the
kind of uniform that football ref-erees
traditionally wear. On the
contrary, one was decked out in
football pants that were too tight:
the other wore baseball pants that
were too baggy, all of which called
to mind the question, "Are they
here to ref football or to masquer-ade
as the seasons of the year?"
It turned out that both Dior and
Tug Wilson would have been dis-appointed.
Why the tension? As these three
people scurried around the field,
blowing whistles and throwing
flags, one fact became clear. If the
professional ref called the play it
would be fair and right; if Baggy
Bloomers called the play it would
be fair or unfair in a nice sort of

way; if Tight Trousers called the
play it would be disaster. "Who
will call the play?" or "Will the of-ficial
ref get there in time to cor-rect
the other two?" thus became
questions on which the outcome of
the game rested.
And when the time-keeper had
let the clock run through the time-outs
and incomplete pas.ses to end
the game minutes before it should
have ended, minutes which might
have meant another Viking touch-town,
it could have been predicated
that Tight Trousers held the stop-watch.
The whole thing becomes even
more grinding, not because North
Park lost, they probably deserved
to, but because one man, a salaried,
licensed, professional referee had
to suffer bad feeling and ridicule
which was due only to two con-fused
minds trying to cope with
something that was beyond them.
They were from Wheaton, anyway.
All of which means we shouldn't
break of f diplomatic relations with
Wheaton, but for a couple of extra
bucks it's easy to hire someone
who knows a little about football.
That was a week and a half ago.
