Freshmen, campus groupies clash in turf wars

Bethel's security force had a
busy week; after quelling the
disturbance at Saints Roller

campus to investigate reports
of skirmishes in the academic
"We entered the PE lobby
and found the place a mad-house,"

found in abundance through-out

The measles epidemic at

been brought to Bethel. Stu-dents
who travelled to Flor-ida
over the recent spring
break are believed to be the
carriers of the virus.
Students who attended Op-eration
Sonshine have discov-ered
red spots beginning to
break out where they thought
it was only sunburn blisters.
Fluzzy Ninquimpoop, direc-tor
of health service, said,
"There is nothing students or
faculty can do now. If you've
been vaccinated, you're okay.
If you haven't, too bad." Nin-quimpoop
said vaccinations
take three weeks to take effect.

jocks in the weight room, and
music majors in the FA lounge.
"The trouble began when
freshmen overran Doc's cor-ner
and kept all respectable
upperclassmen out by obnox-ious
behavior," said Jud Socio.
"Since we had no place to go
we sat on the theatre bench."
Theatre majors reacted an-grily
by claiming social re-pression,
but they soon
calmed down and took over
the weight room.
"Those freaks came in here
and called us wimpy and
stuff," said Bob Thud, an avid
weight lifter. "They pushed
us around and made us cry so
we went up the FA lounge to
pick on the music majors."
The music majors, in turn,
displaced social butterflies in
the Coffee Shop by talking
about Mozart in reverent
tones. Since the socialites
couldn't be seen in public any-where
else they decided co go

of college if all you do it

"Like, last week I studied for

The Bethel LRC finally dis-posed
of its 3M security mag-netic
tape machine, although
LRC officials deny that it is
because the machine causes
cancer in laboratory rats.
They also denied the possibil-ity
that the machine actually
takes x-rays that have ap-peared
in Twin Cities art gal-leries.
"It is simply because Bethel
students have suddenly be-come
too honest for us to
require such a machine," said
an LRC spokesperson, adding

reports that the machine

"Those were blisters," said a
3M official. "You do 11,568,487
wind sprints in a year and see
how many blisters you get!"
he said.
Further controversy about
the machine centered around
reports that area art galleries
are displaying nude photos
taken by the machine. A Beth-el
student who wished to re-main
anonymous said he had
spotted suspicious nude art
at the Minneapolis Institute
of Art.
"They had titles like, A Man
and a Notebook; A Woman
and a Notebook; and A Man,
a Woman, and Two Books,"
he said.
"That simply isn't true,"
said the LRC spokesperson.
"Those photos are not from
Bethel; we haven't sold any of
ours yet."
The machine will be dis-posed
of immediately.

Bethel swindled for $10,000
by Soviet Military Police
New number system
gives students identity
by Kosmo Vinyl
Bethel students unwittingly
gave over $10,000 to SMP
believing that the initials
stood for Student Missionary
Project when actually it was
a cover for the Soviet Mil-itary
Police. Dwight Dwessup,
dean of students, in conjunc-tion
with Dim Would, disco-vered
this incongruity while
doing undercover work to find
who absconded with the park-ing
ticket loot.
"Naturally Dim was trying
to cover up the facts in the
real case because he took the
money," said Dwessup, "but
he did turn up some very
interesting information about
our commie friends."
Investigative reporting by
Carrion staff members re-vealed
that former leaders of
the real SMP were kidnapped
two years ago and are being
held in Moscow until the mis-sion
ends on the Bethel cam-pus.
Bethel was chosen be-cause
of its large contingent of
politically unconcerned stu-dents.
"It's a perfect front for a
communist organization; the
students don't know the dif-ference,"
said Dwessup. "They
figure, 'So what if we have to
share everything, Bethel was
totalitarian long before these
guys came.' "
Bethel student leaders har-bor
no hope of gaining the
money back because it has
been spent on covert activi-ties.

A new proposal for next
year's identification system
would eliminate ID cards. Ac-cording
to John Bergy, con-troller,
each student will have
a four or five digit number
tatooed on the forehead and
inner arm. Because the num-ber
will be on the forehead,
bangs and bandanas will be
prohibited. "It's really a good
system that will save a lot of
time," said Bergy.
The LRC, banking windows
and food service will all be
using the new system. Stu-dents
who use the coffee shop
and cafeteria will walk
through a detector that corn-putes
the student's ID number
and the dollar amount of food
purchased. Then the money is
deducted from his/her ac-count.
To check out books in the
LRC, the students will also
walk through a detector.
There will be no more stamp-ing
cards at the front desk.
The business office has not
quite worked out a system for
the students account and
banking windows. "We'll
probably think of something
in mid-May for those depart-ments,"
said Bergy.
Students need not worry
about washing the ID number
off the forehead or inner arm.
It will automatically disinte-grate
on graduation day. Stu-dents
who transfer after the
system is in progress may
wash off the numbers with a
special solution provided by
health service.

Pastor Slim Pickletrier has
been forced to move the event
to the Metropolitan Stadium

"I believe what we're seeing
here can be described as a

said Pickletrier. "I realize we
have the largest graduating
class in Bethel history, but we
never expected something of

Pickletrier has scheduled a

Rasmussen adbucted by Hebrew Liberation Organization
by Jessica Savage
Eight armed terrorists
stormed AC 314 on Friday
morning, March 25, abduct-ing
Dr. Carl Rasmussen.
Brandishing weapons and
shouting slogans of the He-brew
Liberation Organization
(HLO), the band burst in on
the Hebrew professor during
his morning prayers. Moving
with 'the precision of a well
oiled machine, they peeled
him off of his chair and
dragged him blindfolded
down a flight of stairs and out
the door.
One of the key eye-wit-nesses
of the kidnapping was
Margaret IntVeld, switch-board
operator. "I saw a group
of tough-looking types drag
this poor man outside and
shove him into a black van.
That's when I knew I should
call security: that van had
been illegally parked in a fire
Mrs. Coreen Larson was
also a witness to the getaway.
"I barely caught a glimpse of a
face in the back window as
the van screeched out of sight.
My word! Such goings—on at
Bethel! I'm certainly glad my
Connie doesn't associate with
ruffians like that."
Meanwhile, Dr. Rasmus-sen's
11 a.m. Hebrew class,
ignorant of the morning's
events, sat patiently awaiting
the instructor.
"We couldn't understand it,"
said Ginger Hope. He's never
late for class. Especially not
when there's a quiz."
"Yeah," added Jim Skog-lund,
"and I spent all night
studying for that quiz."
Other class members were
disappointed, too. "I spent a
good two hours sabotaging
the overhead projector, and
he never even showed up,"
complained Daryl Morissey.
But the distraught class was
able to find some good in the
crisis. "Going through this ex-perience
has just really made
us grow a lot closer as a
class," said Connie Larson.
"It's kind of neat."
To demonstrate solidarity
with Rasmussen, the class or-ganized
a Wailing Wall in the
AC lounge from 1-3 p.m. Re-freshments
were served.
Anticipating the abductors'
demands, the class pooled re-sources
to come up with a
ransom. A total of 45C and
eight used Hebrew texts was
collected. .
The Bethel security SWAT
team decided to handle the
case without involving ,out-side
"But we've got to realize,"
said Dim Would, director of
physical plant, "that just be-cause
this is a Christian col-lege
doesn't mean we don't
have problems with terror-ism."
(Editor's note: The four-member HLO council granted an
audience to Jessica Savage, Carrion reporter, in order to
reveal their demands in exchange for the safe return of
hostage Carl Rasmussen. The following is a transcript of
that interview.)
Carrion: Which one of you is the leader?
David Israels: That's me. I was the only one with the
name for the job.
Carrion: I'm not very familiar with terrorist tactics, going
to a Christian college and all. How do you run an organi-zation
like this?
Israels: Well, the secret is division of labor. Harag over
here is our Minister of Munitions.
Rebecca "Harag" Arndt: I locate all the guns, ammo belts,
bombs, stuff like that.
Israels: Arar is Minister of Getaways.
Daniel "Arar" Erickson: I'm the one with the van. I also do
brainwashing and audio torture.
Jacob "Eseb" Gunther: As Minister of Apparel, I make
sure we're all looking our very best. It's good press.
Carrion: How did you rise to these positions of authority?
Israels: Oh, they always aspired to enter the ministry.
Carrion: I see. Well, a lot of people out there are waiting to
hear: what are your demands for Rasmussen's release?
Israels: The Rock.
Carrion: I beg your pardon?
Israels: We want the Rock back. The one you stole from
Carrion: I'm still not sure I know what you mean ...
Israels: Come on, lady, don't play dumb. It's sitting right
there in the middle of the seminary. Now listen. Drop the
Rock on the corner of University and Snelling. We'll take
care of it from there. And no cops, or your friend the
professor will be baklava.

New fundraising Pick-a-Brick' program begins April 31.
by Barbara Wa-Wa
The "Pick-a-Brick" program
which will begin April 31,
1983 is expected to become
one of Bethel's greatest tradi-tions
according to Dwight
Dwessup, dean. The program
allows students to pick a brick
in the academic complex and
have their name permanently
placed on the brick.
"Students will be allowed
approximately one brick for
each semester they are a stu-dent,"
said Dwessup. "The ac-tual
formula for the number
of bricks each student can
claim is as complicated as the
financial aid forms. We will
let students know their brick
quota via the April statements
of their accounts."
Dwessup said the program
is being initiated as a morale
booster and as an effort to
help students see visually
how the amounts of money
they pay each semester help
to build Bethel. He suggests
students pick a brick in a
place with special significance
to them.
Real Pinball, director of ad-missions,
said his office likes
the proposal. "People always
say, 'Bethel is people.' There
is another group who say,
`Bethel is bricks.' This great
idea integrates the two views,"
said Pinball. He said he has
not decided how admissions
will use Pick-a-Brick in re-cruiting.
A possibility sug-gested
was a photo of the
named bricks with a descrip-tion
of how Bethel is people.
"It's a super idea," said Bart
Eaststand. "I know where I'll
pick my brick. It has to be
somewhere down at Doc's.
After all, that's where I spent
most of my time."
Two freshman girls said
they would have to place their
names on bricks in the lib-rary.
"It's just our favorite
spot. It will look good."
A male and female student,
who refused to be identified,
blushed and refused to give
any further details as to where
they would place their names
other than that it was a dark
corner in the AC building.
Spike Manley and Hewey
Wardrum are trying to decide
who will get which bricks on
the north wall of the gym.
Wardrum had claimed the
bricks above six feet and Man-ley
wants his name placed
there also, but he needs War-drum
to do it for him.
The method of placing the
names on the bricks has not
been determined. Engraving
is thought to be the longest
lasting but budget limitations
may prohibit this.
Rail Karendaughter, asso-ciate
professor of art, has sug-gested
something such as
paint which provides a diver-sity
of colors and allows the
student to be creative in the

(Editor's note: Give a writer a few column inches, and what
do you get? A reformation campaign that would put Martin
Luther to shame.)
If I were running this place, things would be different. Here
are a few changes badly needed around here.
1. Admissions should take a tip from the rest of the world and
go generic. Send out white brochures with black letters: "Four-
Year Christian Liberal Arts College." Then in small print:
"This institution meets all federal and state safety regulations,
and is suitable for everyday use. Only expensive packaging
and labeling have been omitted in its preparation.
Prospective students would surely be attracted by the tuition
breaks generated by the savings.
2. The placement office should consider compiling an "Ob-scure
Placement Bulletin" for those of us in obscure fields—in
other words, not education or business. We would appreciate
hearing about obscure positions in obscure corners of the
world. Even obscurists have to eat.
4. Hire someone with two normal legs and no limp to rebuild
the steps that go up between the buildings. It's not good to start
the day with severe muscle spasms in one leg.
7. The stop sign—yes the stop sign—might as well be removed.
It's unnecessary. Only a Panzer could make it through those
chasms without coming to a complete halt. The real problem is
getting started again. I know. That stretch of potholes (that's a
euphemism if ever there was one) has cost me a muffler and a
tailbone this semester.
Well, I'm out of space, but not ideas. I'll be back.
We're asking for it,
and you'll get it.

added to the physical educa-tion
department's list of equip-ment.
The pool is not large,
about the size of the racquet-bal
courts, but it is deep. A
new diving team is already
being formed.
The pool is located where
the old racquetball courts
used to be. The courts were
water-sealed and then flooded
to create the pool. "We thought
it would be a good idea," said
Georg Heinrich, director of
athletics, "We figured as long
as we would be getting new
courts with the new field-house,
why not make better
use of the old ones?"
The new diving team will
be under the coaching of
Loony Magazine, instructor
of physical education. "I hope
to get a really good team to-gether,"
said Magazine. "I
have some really big plans for
the team as a whole. I've been
waiting for the chance to
coach a Bethel diving team,
and now I've got it." The div-ing
team will consist of both
men and women. There will
be ten people on the team.
"I'm really pleased at the
amount of money we saved
by doing it this way," said
Heinrich. The cost of building
a new pool from scratch would
be about a quarter of a million
dollars. The flooding of the
courts cost only $5,000. This
includes the cost of water-proofing
the walls and floor.
"I hope that all of the stu-dents
at Bethel will make use
of this facility," said Heinrich.
"It's a good way to get extra
exercise, and have fun as
The school will initially
charge $1.50 for admission to
the pool. "We're only going to
charge admission for the first
few weeks," said Heinrich.
"We hope to have the pool pay
for itself by then."
Students will be encour-aged
to bring their food from
the cafeteria and coffee shop
to the pool area.
"We hope to create a good,
fun atmosphere for the stu-dents,"
said Heinrich. "It's a
place for them to relax and
have a good time."
Tracksters get up
to get out—of shape
by Howard Cosell
Beginning next fall tiddly
winks will be given club sta-tus
at Bethel. Although this
may seem like a daring move
to many people, athletic direc-tor
Georg Heinrich made it
clear that this is only the first
step. "I hope to have a power-house
team ready by the 1985
season—the year tiddly winks
will become a sanctioned
MIAC sport," said Heinrich
The ambitious Heinrich
feels that the program could
develop into Bethel's finest.
"With the Baptist General
Conference connections we
have on the West Coast there's
no telling how good we could
get. California is tiddly winks
crazy. I really believe it would
catch on here too, once the
general student body got used
to the sport."
Already Bethel has appro-priated
$20 million to build a
new air-conditioned facility
to be used exclusively for tid-dly
winks. If this is any indi-cation
of the support the sport
will receive at Bethel, Hein-rich's
prediction may be ac-curate.
If that is the case the Bethel
sports program may finally
have the dynasty it needs to
help it gain the recognition it
so richly deserves.

The men's track team spent
the ten-day spring break get-ting
out of shape in prepara-tion
for the outdoor season.
"I'm really disgusted at
those guys," said head coach
Steve Whittaker. "Ten days is
not nearly long enough to get
out of shape; they should have
started a long time ago."
"I though we did a good
job," said captain Tom Plock-er.
"The entire group of dis :

said assistant coach

by Clark Kent
After a successful trip to
Arizona last spring break,
Bethel track coach Steve Whit-taker
came upon another idea
to help his runners improve
their times this year.
Last spring Whittaker took
his middle distance runners
to the Grand Canyon and had
them jump off while timing
them past designated distan-ces.
The plunges resulted in
three world records in the
400-, 800-, and 1500-meter
events. The main drawback
was that the athletes were
unable to revel in their records
and it left Whittaker with a
somewhat shallow track
In order to save wear and
tear on uniforms and funeral
costs Whittaker decided to
try a less dangerous means of
getting fast times. The idea—
timing his sprinters as they
ran across 35W during rush
The motivation is obvious
and if the sprinters do make it
across the highway, then they
will be ready for other meets
later in the season. If the sprin-ters
don't make it, well, maybe
they weren't cut out to be
sprinters in the first place.
Three out of five sprinters
made it across the highway
without problems and estab-lished
two personal records
and one world record by
young freshman sprinter
Layne LaFrombois. LaFrom-bois'
record dash was marred
by an accident immediately
following the dash.
LaFrombois covered the
60-meter course across the
North-South lane of 35W in
5.78 seconds but failed to stop
quickly enough afterwards.
He crossed the meridian, inad-vertently
ran into the South-
North lane, and was hit by a

by Howard Cosell
Beginning next week there
will be a weekly publication
to be called "The Bethel Real
Man's Newsletter." According
to Rarely Sweats, dean of men,
"The purpose of the newslet-ter
will be to give the Bethel
real man a guide to what he
can or cannot do without hurt-ing
his reputation. For in-stance,
there will be a guide to
acceptable sporting events
and social activities for the
week. The goal is to try and
clarify the grey areas."
Sweats also indicated that
letters will be sent to both the
food service and the Campus
Coordinators' office. "We have
been particularly disapointed
with the food service's policy
learned a great lesson. Now if
we can do something for our
field event people we'll hold
the world records in all track
quiche so that real men won't
have to skip lunch every Tues-day."
Regarding the Campus Co-ordinators'
office Sweats ex-plained,
"They have been good
about showing Real Man
movies such as The Electric
Horseman and The Sting over
the past year or two. How-ever,
the rollerskating has got
to go. We've suggested that
they substitute flag football
games or bowling for roller-skating.
So far they have re-fused
to change their hardline
position on the matter."
Regardless of the outcome
of these suggestions it is clear
that the Real Man Newsletter
will be a major force in the
coming years.

Watch out North Stars, here come the Royals

After a disappointing sea-son

that drastic action , is
necessary. At a recent athlet-ic

for a spot in the National
Hockey League's 1983 expan-sion.
It will be announced
later in the month at a press
conference in Montreal that
Ottawa and Bethel College
will be granted NHL fran-chise.
Although the move may
seem a startling one to many,
Coach Doll seemed certain of
the logic of his decision, "We
weren't getting enough com-petition
to motivate our play-ers.
The MIAC was OK, but
the challenge just wasn't
there. I'm hoping that the team
will work harder in the new
On the whole the players
seemed to respond well to the
move. According to senior
Gary Shibrowski, "It will be
nice for the seniors. The NHL
doesn't have the four-year eli-gibility
rule so I can play as
long as my knees hold out."
Judging from past experience
that should be a week or two.
Another senior, Jon Erick-son,
was also happy about
the move. "It'll, give me a lot
more time to play video games
since we won't have to attend
classes," Erickson said, then
added, "My Pac-Man scores
have really been dropping
Though most of the players
interviewed were happy
about the move, some had
mixed emotions. As sopho-more
forward Scott Mayer
put it, "I guess the competi-tion
will be good for us but I
have a couple girlfriends, I
mean I have a girlfriend at
school and I'm worried that I
won't see them, uh her, much
with all the road trips."
The team will play its home
games at the Metrodome on
an experimental basis next
season. When asked if the
large space combined with
sparse crowds would bother
his team Dahl replied, "If it
doesn't bother the Twins it
won't bother us."

Archos looks to grab some tablet market share
Subject: Mobile | February 7, 2012 - 01:05 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: archos, 101 G9, Android 3.2.1, honeycomb
The new 10.1" Archos 101 G9 sports a 1280 x 800 multi-touch capacitive screen and runs on a 4 core ARM cortex A9 @ 1GHz as well as 512MB of RAM which should be powerful enough to output 1080p video via the HDMI port. There will also be two more models with faster processors and more RAM which should arrive to market in the near future. The biggest change to this generation of Archos tablets is the bundled 3G stick which extends the networking capability of this device to include Wireless N, Bluetooth and cellular networks. At $320 it is a little more expensive than some of the competition so head over to Hardware Heaven to find out if it is worth the extra money.
"Archos are back with an updated "Gen 9" version of the 101 Android tablet. Featuring Android 3.2.1 and updated specifications can it offer something worthwhile in an ever more crowded market?"

Introduction, Design and Ergonomics
The original ASUS Eee Pad Transformer was a bit of an upset in the tablet market. Before its launch, there was no particular reason to believe that ASUS would be able to provide a better product than any of the many other PC manufacturers entering the Android tablet fray. Sure, I like most of the ASUS products that I've been able to review, and I believe they have some good engineers. But they also had no experience beyond a few Windows tablets and convertible tablets.
Yet they were successful. At the time I called the Transformer "the best Android tablet on the market today" and gave it with a Gold Award. Consumers apparently agreed, as it flew off shelves with such speed that ASUS has decided to debut a follow-up only half a year after the original hit the market.

Introduction and Design
Tablets may be the darling of the tech industry, but they've also received their fair share of criticism as well. One of the most consistent barbs throw towards them is the tablet's inability to serve as a competent platform for content creature. While it's technically possible to write a document or edit an image on a tablet, it's certainly not enjoyable.
Part of the problem is the lack of a keyboard and mouse. Touchscreens are beautiful and intuitive, but they're not precise. While third-party cases and docks have tried to solve this issue, they're often both clunky and expensive.
It's little surprise that a tablet designed specifically to work in conjunction with a keyboard dock has hit the market, but it is surprising that the first such device comes from ASUS, a company with relatively little experience building mobile products. The Eee Pad Transformer is already the second-best selling tablet on the market (after the iPad, of course) and reports indicate sales are constrained by supply rather than demand. What is it that has made the Transformer a quick success?

Introduction, Design and Ergonomics

Samsung's first product to make a splash into the Android tablet market was the original 7" Tab, and while its performance numbers were on par with other similar tablets produced in 2010, it left many consumers wanting more multimedia, gaming, and productivity features like what was available with Apple's iPad and iPad2. Many vendors, including Samsung, were dealing the same issues and challenges associated with the lack of tablet support in Android-based games and applications because Android's SDK only comes in one flavor for general mobile devices, not tablets with larger displays.
Courtesy of Samsung
After hearing feedback from consumers and hardware reviewers, Samsung completely redesigned the Tab 10.1 to accommodate users eager for enhanced video and gaming capabilities that take advantage of modern technologies like Android's latest Honeycomb OS and NVIDIA's Tegra 2 processor that support higher resolution displays beyond 1024x768 (the Tab 10.1's display runs at 1280x800). They also gave the Tab 10.1 a slimmer profile that is comparable to the iPad2. The Tab 10.1 can be purchased for around $499 for the 16GB version and $599 for the 32GB version, which is also on par with its Apple counterparts. We are reviewing the 16GB version to check out all the new features in Honeycomb and see what surprises Samsung included with the Tab 10.1 that justify the $500 price tag.
Acer's new Honeycomb driven Iconia Tab A500 tablet
Subject: Mobile | June 27, 2011 - 06:51 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: tablet, honeycomb, Android, acer
As the table in AnandTech's review demonstrates, the interior of most tablets is dominated by a 1 Ghz ARM Cortex A9 with Tegra 2 doing the heavily graphical lifting. This puts the onus for standing out among the crowd on the look of the tablet and the compatible peripherals as well as the pice. Acer's design was not particularly well received at AnandTech, with several seams reducing their enjoyment of the tablet. On the plus side is the peripheral support, with HDMI and both a microSD card reader and a miniUSB port you will have no problems interfacing with your other gadgets. With a cost just under $400 AnandTech does like the tablet but they can't help but point out that with quad core ICS/Android 4.0 and Kal-El just around the corner you might want to wait for the next generation.
"Next in our series of Honeycomb tablet reviews is the Acer Iconia Tab A500. The A500 was the second Honeycomb tablet to go on sale, and is one of four on the market at present, all of which are very similar. They share basic specs—10.1" 1280x800 displays, NVIDIA's Tegra 2 underhood, 1GB LPDDR2 RAM, 16-64GB onboard NAND, front and rear facing cameras with HD video capture, basic wireless connectivity options, and stock versions of Android 3.0/3.1 Honeycomb (albeit with different preloaded software packages). The hardware similarities makes things like design and price that much more important, and the latter is where Acer seemed to have an edge."

News from the honeycomb hideout, Google's I/O
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2011 - 01:42 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: youtube, sandwich, music, ice cream, honeycomb, google, cloud, Android
The fourth Google I/O took place over the past two days and AnandTech was there to bear witness on the keynote speech and other presentations. As you might well expect Android was the most talked about, the new Honeycomb update was discussed in great detail and with good reason. The update allows Android powered devices to use USB peripherals in the same way as a PC, powering mice, keyboards and even XBox controllers which is a big change from only being able to be used as a USB device and offers even more for those interested in the Open Accessory Library.
Others will be more interested in Google's Music Beta which will let you upload your music collection to the web and includes the ability to make playlists and albums as well as gatherig meta artist information. You can think of it like Amazon's Cloud service, though hopefully more reliable, but as Google seems not to have got the permission of the record companies it may not be.
"Google's I/O 2011 keynote may have suffered from a few choice leaks, namely the new Music service and Ice Cream Sandwich announcement, but Google still managed to include some surprises. Android 3.1, the update to Honeycomb, was announced along with a slew of development platforms, including one committed to bringing better introduction of accessories to Android devices of all types, and a home integration platform based on Android."

guest appearances with more than
forty symphonic groups including
the New York Philharmonic, Phil-adelphia

Minneapolis symphony orchestra.
A long list of other honors also

such as, "What Dali is to can-vas
and color, so Hero is to sound
and rhythm."
Mr. Hero will present the sec-ond
musical concert given in con-vocation
this year.
Violinist Plays Here
Appropriate Thankfulness
The Rev. Maurice Lawson, instructor in English, mentioned a very
tricky subject last Wednesday in chapel when he touched on inappro-priate
thankfulness. Momentarily he raised this question: "Was it out
of place for the pilgrims to thank God for the corn they found or
actually stole from the Indians?" "It is difficult," he said, "to tell
where the providence of God begins or ends."
This, we feel, is a good point to make. We must be careful not
to say dogmatically that God's will was done when something happened
which we favored; nor can we say that—just because something hap-pened—
it was God's will.
For this reason, we strongly disagree with the editorial in the
Nov. 16 "Standard." We do not know that it was God's will for Eisen-hower
to be elected, even though we may personally be happy about
it. Can we believe that God ignored the Southern Baptists' prayers?
If we "take the election results at least in part as an answer to
many prayers," as the "Standard" suggests, we must take every elec-tion
result the same way. This would often get us into serious diffi-culties.
Let us be careful not to mix God's will with our own opinions and
desires when we thank Him this Thanksgiving. But let's be sure to
thank Him!
Culture Is Important
This issue of the CLARION may appear to some students to be
little more than a bulletin on cultural activities and intellectual pursuits.
This is not at all the result of conscious effort, but since this type of
news predominates, it might not be out of order to point two events
announced in this issue.
First of all, for all students who read the CLARION feature en-titled
"On Familiar Ground" and lamented along with the author the
thinness of the intellectual atmosphere on campus, the action announced
in the letter of Areopagitica" should come as a welcome proposal.
A cultural innovation on campus will be the showing of "All the
King's Men" next Thursday evening. This is the first in a series of out-standing
films which will be brought to the campus under the sponsor-ship
of the cultural council this year.
If, as Christian college students, we believe that part of our college
experience is becoming acquainted with the best and becoming conver-sant
on universal problems of society, this is one way to begin.

0 Lord,
Forgive my divided affections.
I have willed to give my very
self to you and in the same
thought have wondered what I
should get in return. I have
given myself up subject to quali-fications.
I have thought that I
had something in me which
needed special consideration. I
have made myself a judge of
your purposes.
Lord, I have tried hard to be
your kind of man. Now my bag
of tricks is empty, and I have
failed. What shall I do next?
In your hand is all power. You
speak, and one man rules the
world. You touch him, and he
can no longer rule himself. By
your will the corn-sToot breaks
through the ground and mighty
Sequoias fall prey to tiny in-sects.
0 God of my salvation, make
me your servant. You know the
process required. Help me not to
inter f ere.
•Discuss With Us
Dear Editor:
It has been a self-evident truth
of recent years that on this campus
there is an abysmal lack of intel-lectual
vitality in the extra-curri-cular
program. There is no group
which regards it as their absolute
duty to discuss current and hot
topics. Not a single session has
been devoted to the problem of
Suez. Who has discussed in organ-ized
(or for that matter unorgan-ized)
fashion the Dead Sea Scrolls ?
No irritated minds have been ex-ploring
in open parlance the mean-ing
of "demythologizing" a la Bul-tmann.
When have we had drag-ged
out for review the old topics
of "free will," etc., etc., etc ? As I
recall no group argued the issues
(or lack of issues) of the past elec-tion,
and unbelievable as it may
seem, I believe two Kinsey reports
were ignored.
But I am not one to despair. No,
No! There are yet a few who like
a hot current topic in politics,
religion, philosophy, etc. And there
are a few who enjoy the able pre-sentation
of any opinion. There-fore,
I will raise the standard of
a new society on this campus
in the coffee shop at 8:30 p.m.,
Nov. 27. Friends of such a society
will congregate ready for organi-zation.
By 9:30 of the said night a
new, vital, intellectually ambitious
and excitingly curious society will
have been created.

discussion without topics or holds
barred. If you are willing to desert

•"Do Unto Others...."
Dear Editor:
While standing in line Tuesday
to vote at the fieldhouse, my hus-band
and I were much chagrined
upon overhearing the conversation
of a woman in back of us with an-other
woman about "those Bethel
students." Their comments were
anything but favorable. And sorry
to say, their complaints were jus-tifiable
in every respect.
They were disturbed with the
disrespect shown by the fellows
with the parking of their cars, ap-parently
those who live off cam-pus.
In commenting on the new
buildings going up, one woman
said, "Just 140 more kids to throw
gum papers and ice cream cones
on our lawn and to walk across our
property." And there were more
unfavorable remarks, as well, such
as, "I guess that is what happens
when you go to college."
Apparently these women didn't
know we were connected with
Bethel, or if they knew, they didn't
care. But it was a startling thing
to discover just how the neighbor-hood
feels about our school. There
are always a few bad apples in
the barrel to spoil it for others,
whose testimony rings true.
I think it is time we took stock
of ourselves and rethought Christ's
teaching, "So whatever you wish
that men would do to you, do so
to them," and "Love thy neighbor
as thyself."

Dear Editor:
Everything from food to man-ners
has been thoroughly criticiz-ed
lately in the CLARION. And
well this might be for the spirit
of criticism is said to be healthy.
But this is true only when the
right method of criticism is used.
The editorial page of the last
CLARION used two contrasting
types of criticism. In the "Letters
to the Editor" the missionary
spirit of the campus was criticiz-ed.
The final note of this article
was "I challenge." Across the page
was an editorial on Bethel's school
spirit. Although the body of this
article did much to stir up a feel-ing
of "let's do something about
it," the final sentence put a dam-per
by saying, "We're probably
just too lazy to try." The con-trast
between these two last para-graphs
is obvious. One says, "Let's

perhaps Spanish club.

"What's the use?" Perhaps we
have forgotten that criticism helps
more when it encourages and of-fers
suggestions than when it
merely condemns.
Most people don't like to have
the finger pointed at them. The
best way to change a person's ac-tions
or thinking is by showing
him a better way.
Let us have criticism, but let's
have the kind that inspires and
encourages, not condemns and de-feats.
Remember, you can still
catch more flies with honey than
you can with vinegar.

we felt was the fact in the matter.
•'Spirit' vs. 'Spirit'
Dear Editor:
No school "spirit?" I vehemently
disagree with you, Mr. Editor!
Bethel boasts a far nobler school
"spirit" than that of the rah-rah
fervor behind a losing ball club
(which even a secular school would
not have). I speak of the school
"spirit" of Christian consecration
and devotion to Christ. Is this not
school "spirit?" But I agree, we
need both kinds.
Al G.
Ed. Note.—Do you think then,
that there is not deficiency in our
school spirit? We think there is.
Prayer Retreat
During the din of the day, you
may wish to stop for a few minutes
to be to be alone and pray.
The prayer tower in the college
building has been removed, but the
prayer room in the library is
set aside for this purpose. Located
on the mezzanine floor of the li-brary,
the prayer room permits
complete privacy. The venetian
blinds can be drawn and the door
can be locked. A Bible has been
placed in the room and there is a
place to kneel.
In these hectic days of finals you
may find it spiritually rewarding
if you spend just a few minutes
there. Everything else is far away.
God is near.

Though I'm yellow this does not indicate that I am a coward. In
my weeks of existence this quarter I have been mutilated, twisted, torn,
effaced, and soiled. Except for three times a day I can be found in
textbooks, wallets, or some insignificant but safe place. I appear only
when grabbed up by a hasty student on the way to the dining hall. I
cringe as I am folded, rolled, and placed behind the ear of some foot-ball
The first time I was used I thought I was really important. I was
shown to a V. I. P. at the end of the chow line. Now I am disappointed
and frustrated. For the last week I have been carried around but not
shown off once. I am hidden under a napkin, a plate of stew, or a dish
of "popeye's favorite." Several of my brothers have found their end
in the dish washing machine when some careless student has forgotten
that he has left it under the garbage and soiled dishes on his tray.
I believe I fulfilled my purpose, if I ever had one, when the office
used me as a kind of student receipt. Now I have done my duty and
think it only fair that I retire to some scrapbook, waste basket, or any-where
so I don't have to continue to be hid under dirty dishes and
clasped in the sweaty hands of unconcerned students.
I hope I won't be revived next quarter.

it has been necessary to review
fundamentals thoroughly, along

other areas of life as well.
But if we did drop football, or
any other major sport, what would
happen to our physical education
program ? What would happen to
our education program in general?
There are many who may not con-sider
majoring in physical educa-tion
but strongly desire it as a
minor. I cannot help thinking that
there is a large field of endeavor
for Christian coaches after read-ing
of Mr. Rabb's unfortunate foot-ball
Football is not at fault when
men play it wrong. Should we drop
the sport here at Bethel ? The an-swer
is no.
Team Prepares
For Opener Sat. by Jack Tierney
Anything can go to an extreme.
In the last issue of the Clarion we
were vividly shown what a vicious
and hideous game football is. We
were told of crowds yelling for
"blood," of a coach showing his
players how to effectively use those
"little tricks," and the age old law
of an eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth. All these things, Mr.
Rabb says, are part of the game
of football. The illustrations he used
concerned the Pacific Coast League,
—the league now so well known for
its scandalous policy toward foot-ball.
It would be utterly naive to
say that in some sections of the
country the game has not been
perverted, but is that the fault
of football? Is it really the game
that is inherently evil? Because
one person cheats in school should
we stop providing means for edu-cation
? If we are going to first
of all condemn football, and sec-ondly
condemn it on a Christian
campus, let's look at our own cam-pus.
On Wednesday Nov. 28, the
Barons and the Counts, two of the
three undefeated teams in the in-tramural
volleyball league, square
off in a show-down match for a
tie in the league lead. Both have a
record of four wins and no losses.
Also with a 4-0 record is the team
of Jesters who play the Peasants
The Jesters may have an easy
time in their next game, but on
successive weeks play the Barons

Why does an indi7idual play
football at Bethel ? Is it the great
benefits he receives ? The extra
glass of milk a day is hardly a
strong incentive. Is it the glory
he gets ? Nine times out of ten
he is ridiculed. Why does he play
the game ? Because he enjoys it.
It's fun to have a winning team
in everything we do but is that
the primary purpose ? If it is,
Bethel would be smart to hire
some "amateurs" to rank us among
the top ten teams in the nation.
I am not saying that the team is
not trying to win, for they would
rather win more than anyone else,
and I'm not saying that they won't
win in the future. But they won't
stoop to the "bestial level" to do it.
If our players can't play the game
legally they don't play at all. They
are taught no "little tricks." If the
individual as a Christian is illegal-ly
hit he can't retaliate illegally.
He must learn to discipline him-self
and continue to play honestly.
If he is able to do it on the grid-iron,
I believe he will do it in
and the Counts in their quest for
the championship.
The league is not as unbalanced
as it looks, except in the number
of players that show up. There are
still some games forfeited because
of lack of players.

Five Students
In Auto Wrecks
Charles C. Anderson, Seminary
Senior, was critically injured in an
automobile accident last Thursday
night in Minneapolis. He is still
in very critical condition at Fair-view
hospital in Minneapolis.
He suffered a severe concussion
and lacerations on his head and
neck, and has been semi-conscious
since. The other driver was also
injured and the causes of the acci-dent
have not been established.
Sunday evening, Nov. 11, three
other Bethel students were injur-ed
in another automobile accident.
John Berh was severely cut on his
left hand and required 18 stitches
for it. Dale Larson suffered a
slight concussion and Rich Samuel-son
received internal injuries. Dave
Davies was also in the car, but was
not injured.
The three were rushed to Ancher
hospital and were brought home
to the student infirmary the next
afternoon. They were released last
School Buys Lot,
Plans Building
Bethel's purchase of property
on the corner of Larpenteur ave-nue
and Pascal street was reveal-ed
by President Lundquist recent-ly.
It has been tentatively planned
to use this property for building
an apartment for faculty and staff
members. Although nothing has
been decided definitely, the plans
are being drawn up.
Though the construction of an
apartment off-campus would be a
first, the provision of housing for
faculty is not an innovation for
Bethel. At the present time the
school owns an apartment on Min-nehaha
avenue as well as several
homes nearer campus for this pur-pose.
Winter Fair
An all-school winter carnival is
scheduled for January 4 and 5,
immediately following Christmas
vacation. Included in the tentative
schedule of events is a formal ban-quet,
an all-school sleigh ride, and
competition between classes in
winter sports such as skating, to-bogganning,
and snow sculpturing.
Tickets for the banquet will go
on sale on or around December 7.
Because of the short lapse of time
between the date of our return to
school after Christmas vacation
and the dates set for the carnival,
social council chairman, Jack
Tierney, says it would be wise for
the men to arrange their dates for
the banquet before Christmas vaca-tion
oted Firm Gets
Bethel Contract
A contract was let last week to
the architect firm Morell and
Nichols for the long-range plan-ning
of Bethel college.
This firm is that which designed
the Southdale shopping center,
and is working on the long-range
program for the University of
Minnesota, and also for the state
capitol ground.
Heating engineers are also work-ing
on the possibility of a new
central heating plant on campus.
Studies are being made of the pre-sent
heating system and recom-mendations
will probably be made
Wednesday "dress-up" night will
once again be initiated at Bethel,
beginning winter quarter. This tra-dition
was re-established by a vote
of the Student Senate at its Nov-ember
first meeting.
The action was taken because
the Senate members felt that
Bethel students should set aside
one night a week to practice good
table manners in a more formal
atmosphere. Dress-up night would
also, they felt, break up the mon-otony
of the week's routine sched-ule.
Another major advantage of
dress-up night would be the "ex-tra-
special" food prepared.
"Dress-up" night was a campus
tradition until December of last
year. At that time, following dis-cussion
on its disadvantages and
possibilities for its improvement,
the more formal mid-week dinner
was suspended. In its re-establish-ment
now some of the suggestions
made at that time are being con-sidered.
One of these is the plan-ning
of appropriate activities on
campus Wednesday evenings. Also,
to make the dinner something
"special," the Senate is consider-ing
a different method of serving
the meal.
Perform At Concert
Several solos and ensembles
were featured in the concert pre-sented
by the band last Tuesday.
In addition to the combined num-bers,
a solo—"Csardas" was play-ed
on the clarinet by Wayne
Henry. Beverly Carlson, Karin
Carlson, Karen Huso and Betty
Johnson formed a flute quartet
which played "Gavotte." "Bug-ler's
Holiday" was rendered by
John Anderson, Morris Anderson
and Gene Thompson on trumpets
and cornet. Bob Eliason, Harvey
Helm, Lyle Hill and James Key
gave the trombone arrangement
of "The Unveiled Christ."
An offering was received to en-large
the fund for band uniforms.

Hi everyone,
My experience in Varanasi is has been very good.
I suppose your experience will depend in what are you looking for when you visit a place and of course beforehand information about what you are visiting if you do not want to have disappointments.
I did not expect India to be an European country so not surprises there. I do recognize is still shocking for some people. India is a beautiful and diverse big country with huge population and very low salaries or even just enough money to survive for quite a lot of the people. The cities in general can not keep up with the flowing of people either.
I do think Varanasi is a very interesting place and if you like India, their culture and mostly their interesting religious ceremonies you would love to visit it and you should not miss it as it is a very sacred place for them.
I definitely do not drink water from the tap but I eat on the stalls most of the time. It is cheaper and often better than at some restaurants.
I hope it helps,
Haifa & Bread of Life[edit]
I reverted the changes made to Haifa Cafe and Bread of Life Bakery... if they're true, someone speak up and we can add the info back in in a less harsh way. But it seems a little weird to me that 2 of the most popular places in the city with tourists have taken such a simultaneous nose-dive. Forgive me if I'm wrong about this. – cacahuate talk 01:26, 20 June 2007 (EDT)
Do NOT Bathe[edit]
surely this recommendation should be removed, if the water's not drinkable, you surely should not swim in it. " Try not to think too much about the dozens of sewage pipes and sunken corpses " again, just thinking about it doesn't make it in any way advisable. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs)
JUST READ THE GANGA ARTICLE: ...As it flows through highly populous areas the Ganges collects large amounts of human pollutants, e.g., Schistosoma mansoni and faecal coliforms, and drinking and bathing in its waters therefore carries a high risk of infection. While proposals have been made for remediating this condition, little progress has been achieved. Along the 4 miles (6.4 kilometres) stretch of terraced bathing ghats in the holy city of Varanasi, the water of the Ganges is a "brown soup of excrement and industrial effluents."[5] The water there contains 60,000 faecal coliform bacteria per 100 ml, 120 times the official limit of 500 faecal coliforms/100ml that is considered safe for bathing...ANY QUESTIONS ??? so,when your not born and raised in varanasi...and even your mother drank that brew while pregnant...do not even think to bathe...it definitely gives you the shits...minimum...HARRY
Rickshaw/taxi scams are a norm in Varanasi, and the driver will inevitably tell you that the hotel that you wish to go to has burned down, is flooded, or closed. Don't believe him. Drivers receive commission from hotels for bringing in new guests, and this is one way to trick newcomers to going to these places. Don't get annoyed, but see the exchange as playful banter and part of the Varanasi experience. However, if the driver continuously refuses to follow your instructions, threaten to get out of the rickshaw. If after all this you still end up to a different place, just refuse to pay until you arrive at your hotel. The same procedure will need to be followed when sight seeing, as drivers will inevitably try to take you to handicraft stores, from which they receive commission. If calling for a pickup from a more resepctable hostel, be wary that other taxi drivers may listen in to your phone conversation then tell another taxi driver who will pick you up pretending to be your hostel, then take you to a commision charging hostel.
I think the best way to deal with these people is a zero tolerance policy. If a driver does anything other than take you to your hotel, immediately get out and do not pay the driver. I have kicked the shit out of a bicycle rickshaw, to good effect. These people are the scum of the earth. They ruin people's vacations. They must be dealt with decisively and harshly.
"One of the most impressive sights in the world"[edit]
I think very few non-Hindus would consider people bathing in the Ganges to be "one of the most impressive sights in the world." Indeed, Google searches reveal that many people who visit Varanasi are not enthralled. I personally thought Varanasi was a sewer, and would not recommend that others visit it. Unless someone can give me a good reason to maintain the language in the current article that seems like a travel agent touting Varanasi, I believe the article should include my edits, which Ikan deleted. I will revert back to them tomorrow. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 18.104.22.168 (talk • contribs)
It's not an issue of who's right and who's wrong. It's a matter of neutrality. There is no consensus that Varanasi has "one of the most impressive sights in the world" or that it is a "must visit." Many people feel differently. Regards. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs)
I added Stops Hostel after staying here and found it was deleted within hours, I also added information in for getting the bus from Nepal, of which there is no info elsewhere on Wikitravel, can someone explain why it's been deleted (I see Stops has been deleted on April 11th also) - this is a community resource, we put a lot of effort into helping fellow travellers please show some respect and leave useful information in.
