We liked to see the pictures of all kinds of different coins in this book. We could find lots of state quarters but we like the Texas and Arkansas ones best! This book helps the reader count coins and learn about trading coins for the same value. The math questions in this book helped us practice and learn about money but they were not very much fun to do. The most surprising thing about this story is that it is really a long poem. The words that sounded alike made the book easier to read.
This book was written for second and third graders. Older students will already know how to trade coins so they won't learn very much. But younger kids can learn how to keep their money when they read this book. Parents will want kids to know how to count money so they can grow up and live ok.

Richmond Theatre
5144 Mayfield Road,
3 people favorited this theater
The Richmond Theatre opened in the late-1940's as a single screen. All seating was located on a single sloping floor. It was triplexed in the 1980's under Loews ownership. The theatre closed in the early-1990's.
A DSW Shoe Warehouse store then occupied the building, with the marquee being used to identify the shoe store. It was demolished in early-2009.
Recent comments (view all 9 comments)
Loews bought the local Community Circuit chain, which included this theatre along with the Riverside, Village, Berea and Showplace theatres. This was an orchestra only, no balcony or stadium, in an art-deco style. The auditorium ceiling was sculptured plaster and had purple neon cove lighting. It had been well taken care of by the previous owner. When they triplexed the Richmond it actually didn't look too bad, it retained a lot of it's original character. They put two theatres in the back half of the auditorium with 10 or 15 foot wide passageway between them that accessed the third theatre which was the front half of the original auditorium, full width, with the stage left intact.
The shoe store that occupies the Richmond Theater has closed. The building is now vacant.
As of this week, a fence has been erected around the perimeter of the property, and all storefronts have been cleared Bobcat-style. The auditorium has an open section of its west wall, obscured by plastic sheeting, and construction equipment is on site. It doesn't, unfortunately, look like a renovation, and if it is, it's one where the end result is a shell.
The demolition is now complete on this theatre. Two pictures are available if you mail to
Theater has been down for some months now — clearing was to create a parking lot and visibility from Mayfield Road for an Aldi's grocery store erected at the rear of the property. Store opened in August/September 2009.
I only went to this theater one time. My dad took me here to see Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, in 1991 (I was about 9). I think it closed down not too long after.
It was a Designer Show Warehouse for years. Then in 2009 half of this plaza was torn down (including DSW) and became a parking lot for the Aldi's grocery store they built in the back.
As a kid I went to the comic book shop Northcoast Nostalgia which was pretty much next door all the time (this is about 1994-1998). Since the building it was in was torn down as well, Northcoast moved its operations not very far at all; it is now in the plaza in the back adjacent to the Aldi's.
The Google street view for this theater is on the wrong side of the street and too far East. This is the correct streetview: http://g.co/maps/j72ka (5104 Mayfield Rd, Lyndhurst, Ohio). The site is a parking lot.
nice until tripled i bet,just like my old Theatre NATIONAL HILLS.
Actually, as far as triplexing goes, this one was not insensitive; two small screening rooms were built in the back section of the main floor, left and right of the entranceway to what became the main center screen. These extended down about a third or half-way into the original auditorium.(see auditorium photo). But aside from that, the center theater very much resembled the the original auditorium; those plaster curls and the big screen were retained. (A similar triplexing was carried out in the original auditorium of the Lake in Euclid). The Richmond was a very large theater for a suburban house and probably would not have survived as long as it did without the triplexing.
This was one the theaters I went to frequently in the 1960s. "Goldfinger" played for many weeks there; I also remember seeing "Thunderball" and "Wait Until Dark" at the Richmond.

Running on leaner government is one thing; cutting programs is another
AUSTIN — It's one thing for candidates to promise leaner government. It'll be quite another for them to see the effect of budget cuts on their constituents.
That's the talk from a number of leading lawmakers — not all of them Democrats — as it becomes clearer what will be required for the state to live within its means in the face of a budget shortfall.
House Appropriations Chair Jim Pitts, R-Waxahachie,bets lawmakers will get a good picture from their constituents this week, after he files a starting-point budget that will assume no revenue besides what the comptroller predicts will come in through the next two years. That means no new taxes and no money from the state savings account called the rainy day fund.
"Members will go home, and their local superintendent will say, 'This is what's going to happen to your school district that your child or grandchild goes to. This is what it's going to do to your local hospital," Pitts said at a Texas Tribune question-and-answer session.
"There may be an anticipation, No. 1, that we might try to figure out a way to bring more money into the state of Texas, because this isn't going away," he said.
House Ways and Means Chair Rene Oliveira, D-Brownsville, believes there won't be new taxes and that "doesn't leave very many attractive solutions."
"The cuts, to many Texans, are going to be unacceptable. They're not going to understand why they lost their job, or why their benefits were cut, or why people got laid off," Oliveira said in an interview. "It's going to be a very tough session, and there will be body bags at the end. There are going to be a lot of members who don't come back because of this problem."
GOP Gov. Rick Perry, however, is among those countering what he calls "doomsday reports and proclamations that, 'Oh my God, it's going to be the end of the world.'" He added, "I've been here since 1985, and the names may have changed, but the interest is still there.
"You couldn't spend enough to make some of those groups happy," he said in an interview. "The 'Center of too many Ps' is a great example. They don't think you can spend enough money."
The Center for Public Policy Priorities is among groups advocating a budget approach that includes some cuts, new tax revenue and spending the rainy day fund. Its staff note that Texas ranks 50th in per capita state spending.
Perry is putting a priority on preventing Texas cities from having so-called "sanctuary city" policies, although he hasn't offered many details. And some GOP lawmakers have promised a hard push for tough, Arizona-style immigration legislation.
Now Rep. Jessica Farrar, D-Houston, is countering with House Bill 603, which would specify that a peace officer "may not inquire as to the nationality or immigration status of a victim of or witness to a criminal offense except as necessary to investigate the offense." Farrar said in a statement, "Placing immigration-enforcement responsibilities on the shoulders of local law enforcement agencies will force officers to spend less time on keeping Texas communities safe."
As photographer Tom Reel and I waited for our interview with Perry last week, who should stroll in but political guru Karl Rove. He was quickly ushered into the inner offices for a quick meeting with Perry. Evidence of White House ambitions after all? Not so, says Perry. The governor's chief of staff, Ray Sullivan, who has worked with Rove, said, "He was just here to see me and shoot the bull."

The kitchen at Convention Hall moved with purpose and was filled with smells of vegetables and herbs Wednesday morning.
The kitchen at Convention Hall moved with purpose and was filled with smells of vegetables and herbs Wednesday morning.
Volunteers were preparing pans on top of pans of dressing for today's annual Comm-Unity Thanksgiving Celebration, which offers a free meal to anyone in the area between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Outside in the large hall, men prepared to cut turkeys, and groups later would begin to finish decorating the dining tables.
Susan Carter, director of 211/First Call for Help, said there was more volunteer work also going on outside the building.
"While we have a big event and things going on here, we have a lot going on around us to make this event what it is," Carter said.
For instance, she said, Mary and Jon Costa are coordinating transportation to deliver 2,500 meals; Buffalo Rock is delivering drinks; golf carts are being picked up; and tea from Johnson's Giant Food and cakes from Food World are being retrieved. And those are just to name a few.
"We want people to know this meal is about the community coming together and celebrating the good things we have in our lives and sharing that with other folks," Carter said.
The luncheon tradition started in 1998 as a small ministry of New Liberty Church and Community Development 2000, a nonprofit ministry in East Gadsden, before the United Way became involved.
"The teamwork is outstanding," said Annie Guyton, who is managing the kitchen in her 14th year volunteering for the luncheon. "Everyone working the whole week is like one set of hands: the one helps the other. It's very inspiring."
Guyton said there is no color barrier in volunteering.
"It's nothing to do with our differences," she said. "It's one purpose and that purpose it to serve."
Last year, volunteers served 3,700 meals — which include turkey, dressing, gravy, green beans, corn, cranberry sauce, a roll, dessert and drink — and organizers are preparing to serve 4,000 this year.
Carter said organizers raise the funds for the meal — about $10,000 — themselves, and don't use money raised during the United Way campaign. Plates are made for about $2.40 each.
She thanked organizers, the city of Gadsden, the Gadsden/Etowah County Emergency Management Agency and the staff of Convention Hall for their part in the luncheon, along with individuals, churches, sororities and civic clubs that have donated money.
More volunteers will be at Convention Hall Thursday, helping deliver meals and serve food to those who come to the hall.
Vicki Lister and her son Adam, who is an eighth-grader at Rainbow Middle School, were working in the kitchen Wednesday. She said they would work for a few hours and would be back tomorrow — he in the kitchen and she out front.
"He'll help cook, but I'll be on the serving line or seating guests, doing what I love to do," she said.

This is Part 4 of The Agenda: What Obama Has Done for You, a series of articles looking at President Barack Obama's record on issues that affect blacks.
There is perhaps no issue more important to the black community's success than education. Few things — health care included — can practically guarantee a life filled with opportunity the way a comprehensive education can, and a testament to its power is how long blacks in America were literally banned from schooling.
Today African Americans are still facing tremendous challenges on the road toward high-quality education for all. In 2007, 54 percent of black children were obtaining high school diplomas, and that same year, only 43 percent of black college students ultimately completed their education and received a degree. Race aside, U.S. children in general trail the world in math and science ability.
In response to these abysmal statistics, President Obama has made education reform a primary fight of his administration. And, as with most of his other policies, he's taken note of the plight of African Americans.
K-12: Establishing a Solid Foundation
"We've got to focus on the early years through 12th grade," says Melody Barnes, director of the White House's Domestic Policy Council, "because we have to ensure a complete and competitive education for all students so that they're prepared for college and career."
In order to jump-start early public education, Obama's main strategy has been his Race to the Top grant program. Using a point system that rewards things like "improved teacher effectiveness" and "making education funding a priority," the Department of Education then doles out grants to the highest-achieving states.
Inherent in the scoring system is also a demand for racial justice. Points are awarded for states "demonstrating significant progress" in closing achievement gaps and "ensuring equitable distribution of effective teachers and principals" in high-poverty and high-minority schools.
As of August, 11 states and the District of Columbia had won $4.3 billion in Race to the Top grants. The administration estimates that these funds "will directly impact 13.6 million students, and 980,000 teachers in 25,000 schools."
Shortly after Obama announced his plans for Race to the Top, civil rights groups attacked the plan, saying that it didn't adequately benefit black and Latino students. Barnes considers that view to be shortsighted.
"Race to the Top was, indeed, a race to the top — it wasn't a race to the middle," she says. "And by that I mean we were setting a high bar. The other thing I would say is that while people have focused on Race to the Top and the $5 billion we've placed there, what they've focused on to a lesser extent is the $4 billion we've given to states and localities to turn around the 5,000 lowest-performing schools in the country.
"So we are walking and talking at the same time and trying to address those students that most desperately need assistance. I think you would be hard pressed to argue that [the billions we give to the lowest-performing schools] aren't significantly helping African Americans, Latinos and other students of color."
Barnes also notes that, whether or not states win the grants, just their attempts get the ball rolling on a host of improvements.
"[The grants] have been a catalyst to reform across the country that we think benefits students not just in the winning states but also students elsewhere," she says. "One of the reasons we focus on high goals for all students is because, in the past, in response to the No Child Left Behind Act, we've seen many states lower their standards. It doesn't do students any favors that you've lowered the standard and then told them that they are prepared to move on to the next grade or that they are prepared to go to college when they aren't."
College: Providing Opportunities and the Means to Pay for Them
President Obama has said that he wants the United States producing the most college graduates by 2020. To achieve that goal, he's attempting not only to prepare students for the work ahead of them but also to make it more accessible and affordable.
"For higher education, we've had this focus on not only access but also completion and college graduation," says Barnes.
Though many don't know it, included in the health care reconciliation bill was major higher-education reform that drastically changes the way students borrow money. Dubbed the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act, the law cuts down on the powers of private lenders and ramps up the government's direct-loan program. It also increases the number of federal Pell Grants offered to students.
"We added about $40 billion to the Pell program," says Barnes, "meaning we're now able to give about 820,000 additional Pell Grant awards, about 200,000 of which will go to African-American students."
Black student borrowers will also stand to benefit from Obama's income-based loan-repayment program. Starting in the year 2014, students who take out loans will have their loan payments capped at 10 percent of their discretionary income. Beyond that, any student who graduates and then goes into public service will have his or her loan completely forgiven after 10 years of payments. Barnes estimates that almost a quarter-million African Americans will be able to benefit from the program between 2014 and 2020.
Elsewhere in the reconciliation bill — and something that speaks directly to the administration's education goals — was increased funding for minority-serving institutions, which includes both historically black colleges and universities and predominantly black institutions. Currently, the minority-serving institutions are set to receive $850 million over 10 years.
"This is very important," says Barnes, "because HBCUs and primarily black institutions enroll about 60 percent of minority students who are going to college. We're making sure these institutions have stronger curriculums and better facilities to prepare the leaders of tomorrow."

Nearly 100 residents of Taipei's Huaguang Community (華光社區) and their supporters yesterday clashed with police outside the Executive Yuan during a protest against a forced demolition of their houses scheduled to take place next week.
"Premier, come out," the residents and their supporters chanted as they pushed forward and clashed with police officers holding riot shields.
"The land on which our community stands used to be unwanted, but now that real-estate prices are going up, we're facing forced eviction," Chu Yi-chen (朱義珍) said. "We are not trying to make some illegal profits, we just want a home where we may stay without any worries."
The residents are angry because despite their protests and petitions, the government has decided to start the demolition on Thursday and has filed lawsuits against residents for "illegally profiting" by occupying government property.
Chen Wei-hui (鄭偉慧), a resident and spokesman for the movement to save the community, said that in addition to some people who have lived in the community for generations, most of the residents are low-ranking soldiers who retreated to Taiwan with the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) regime in 1949 after it lost the Chinese Civil War against the Chinese Communist Party.
"They came with the KMT government, they had nowhere to stay and were told that they may settle where they live now because the government had nowhere else to settle them," Cheng said. "Despite the living conditions, most of the residents and their families have lived in the community for decades without any problems, they are provided with electricity and water, and they pay taxes."
"All of a sudden, they are told to leave without any settlement plan — although the Taipei City Government once promised them a new community — and those who are unwilling or unable to move are being sued and will have to pay millions of New Taiwan dollars in compensation to the government," Cheng said. "How does that make any sense?"
Not having received a positive response from the government, the protesters vowed to launch larger protests on the days the demolitions are scheduled.
Separately yesterday, the Taipei City Government said it would provide public housing units for Huaguang Community residents and help them with their relocation.
Taipei City Government spokesman Chang Chi-chiang (張其強) said the city government would take the initiative to offer 57 public housing units in Nankang District (南港) and Shilin District (士林) to residents of the community and would relax limitations on applications to help the residents settle in their new homes.
The Taipei City Government's Department of Urban Development has given information about the housing units to the central government, and the city government would start preparing to move people after the central government provides a list of eligible applicants, Chang said.
"The city government has also urged the Executive Yuan to delay the demolition of the community until the city government comes up with a relocation plan," he said.
Chien Se-fang (簡瑟芳), a division chief in the department, said the department would relax regulations on applications for the public housing as most of the residents are aged 45 years and older.
The regulations on the public housing rentals state that applicants must be between 20 and 45 and have their household registered in Taipei. The applicants should also be recently married and have children, and should not own any property, while their annual income must be less than NT$1.7 million.

Like the tabloid weeklies that taunt celebrities with pictures of their cellulite or pimples, "The Importance of Being Earnest" pokes fun of the people who got all the attention during the Victorian era in England, the aristocracy, by revealing their silliness and superficiality.
A few hundred years later, the play has not gotten stale; the jokes are still as fresh and relevant as they were when the play was first performed in 1895.
It helps that the cast of the Los Alamos Little Theater's production of Oscar Wilde's play does such a wonderful job presenting this show. The entire cast never falters with their English accents or with delivering Wilde's wordy lines. A real standout in the play is Corey New, who plays Algernon, a sneaky, troublemaker. New just slips so easily into this role – it seems like he and his character are a perfect fit.
Another standout is Jody Shepard at Lady Bracknell. Shepared's Bracknell wears her fantastic, enormous blue and purple heats with authority, authority she uses to meddle in the relationships of others.
The costumes complete the package; from Algernon's impressive smoking jacket to Gwendolen's lavender and powder-blue ensembles, everyone is dressed to the hilt.
LALT did a lot of clever things with its production. In particular, rather than dimming the lights and bringing out stagehands camouflaged in black to change the sets, actors portraying servants got things ready for the next scene. It made the transition from scene to scene a lot smoother and more enjoyable.
LALT has certainly ended its season with a bang.
Los Alamos Little Theatre's production of Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest" will show at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Saturday, and May 16 and 17. There will be a show at 2 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $12 general admission and $10 for students and seniors are available at CB Fox and at the door, 1670 Nectar St.

Published January 13, 2015
A mentally disturbed suburban New York woman who drowned her three young children in a bathtub is going to court to ask a judge for a cut of their $350,000 estate.
Nassau County Surrogate's Court Judge Edward McCarty ruled Thursday that Leatrice Brewer will be taken from an upstate psychiatric facility to testify about her request next month.
Brewer was found not guilty because of mental disease or defect in the 2008 deaths of her children. Her attorneys say she shouldn't be subject to laws that bar convicts from profiting from their crimes.
The fathers of the dead children settled a lawsuit with the county after they claimed social services workers failed to properly monitor Brewer and the children.
The judge has scheduled a Nov. 6 hearing on the matter.

Dear Prospective Whitworth Applicants:
Thank you for taking the time to inquire about Whitworth. We recognize that prospective faculty who are not well acquainted with Christian higher education may find it difficult to contemplate writing an essay that describes one's personal faith for an application process. We ask you to write such an essay because when we hire new faculty we expect that they be able to articulate a clear Christian commitment, but we do not ask faculty to sign a doctrinal statement. To do so would limit the rich mix of denominational and theological diversity that Whitworth has enjoyed since its founding. We see Whitworth as one of the relatively few remaining higher education institutions where protestant mainliners, evangelicals, Anabaptists, Catholics and Orthodox faculty can engage one another on the widest variety of important intellectual and social issues. I'd like to tell you a bit more about Whitworth and refer you to several resources on our website that describe Whitworth's mission and identity more fully. These may help you to write the personal faith essay for our application.
A host of questions are likely to cross the mind of any applicant for a position at Whitworth. Will I be free to pursue controversial ideas? Will my particular expression of the Christian faith be respected? Will I be forced into a narrow set of religious doctrines? Is Whitworth's faith commitment merely nominal and historic, or is it a vital part of Whitworth's community today? These are good questions and you may be surprised by the unusual and challenging ways in which Whitworth answers them. Our president, Beck Taylor, describes Whitworth as a Christian university that "seeks to balance a rigorous and open academic culture with clear commitments to the centrality of Jesus Christ and the authority of Scripture." President Taylor celebrates Whitworth's commitments to nurture the life of the mind and engage society's most important issues simultaneously.
Review of our faculty handbook will attest that Whitworth does not take an institutional stand on controversial social and political issues. This leaves members of our faculty free to engage the issues from their varied intellectual and theological perspectives and to model constructive dialogue for our students.
But don't just take my word for it. Before you write your essay and submit your application take a look at our eclectic lineup of speakers and artists, peruse our faculty's scholarly accomplishments, and investigate the rest of our website. The Chronicle of Higher Education published a 2008 article that describes well the role of the personal faith essay in Whitworth's approach to faculty hiring. We are by no means perfect, but I am sure that you will find a rich, engaging intellectual community committed to walking the narrow ridge.
Carol Simon
Whitworth University Provost and Executive Vice President

To keep deer populations at bay, Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries wants to remind people that it is illegal to feed deer between Sept. 1 and the first Saturday in January, according to a news release.
Feeding deer can unnaturally increase deer populations and damage natural habitats, increase the likelihood for disease transmission, increase deer/vehicle collisions and diminish the wild nature of deer, the state agency reports.
Effective Sept. 1, it's illegal to feed deer statewide in Virginia. The annual prohibitions run through the first Saturday in January and are described by the agency in a news release:

Child Prodigy
to Appear at
Master Allen Olsen, twelve-year
old musical prodigy, will appear
with his well-known instructor,
Professor Theodore Bergman, at
our first convocation of the new
year, on Tuesday evening, January
29th, at 8 P. M. This outstanding
young pianist has studied under
the direction of Professor Berg-man
for a number of years and
has appeared in several concerts
throughout the Twin Cities.
Miss Adora Norlander, noted so-prano,
who has been heard by
many Bethelites in Twin City sing-spirations,

featured soloist. I n conjunction
with the musical Program, appro-priate
readings will be given by a
talented artist.
The program has been arranged
by Prof. Nels Stjernstrom. Stu-dents,

friends of Bethel are invited to
He Practiced
What He Preached
A chaplain on the battlefield
came to a man who was wounded,
lying on the ground. "Would you
like me to read you something
from this book—the Bible?" he
asked the soldier. "I'm so thirsty",
replied the man. "I would rather
have a drink of water." Quickly
as he could, the chaplain brought
the water. Then the soldier ask-ed:
"Could you put something un-der
my head?" The chaplain took
off his light overcoat, rolled it,
and put it gently under the sold-ier's
head for a pillow. "Now,"
said the soldier, "if I had some-thing
over me ! I am very cold."
The chaplain took off his o w n
coat and spread it over the sold-ier.
The wounded man looked up
into his face and said gratefully:
"Thank you." Then he added fee-bly:
"If there is anything in that
book in your hand that makes a
man do for another what you have
done for me, please read it to me."
T o commemorate i t s Seventy-fifth
Anniversary Year, Hunter
College of New York City is offer-ing
a series o f prizes totaling
$12,900 in Victory Bonds (matur-ity
value) for essays on various
aspects o f intercultural_ relations.
With the development of new
methods of warfare and the estab-lishment
of the UNO, the question
of how to live with other cultured
groups and with other nations is
no longer just a subject for the
sentimentalist or the doctrinaire.
It has become the immediate and
vital concern of every man and ev-ery
w o m a n. Somehow everyone
must learn to be a citizen of his
own country and a member of One
World as well. The purpose of
this Diamond Jubilee Contest is to
focus t h e attention of thinking
Americans more sharply on the
problems of intercultural relations,
and to contribute practically to
their solution.
T h e contest is open to t w o
groups: college students, and tea-chers
and professors. In each
group a set of twenty prizes will
be awarded. Victory bonds of (ma-turity
value) $1,000 for the best,
$500 for the second best, and $100

`Lost Sheep' Theme
of BWA Program
On Thursday afternoon, January
14, 1946 the Bethel Women's Asso-ciation
met in the lounge of the
Girl's Dormitory. A n interesting
program centered around the
theme of "The Lost Sheep" was
presented by cabinet four with
Elaine Pegors in charge. Those
taking part through speech and
song were Helen Holle, Evelyn
Sundberg, Doloris Erickson, V i v-ian
Gaydosik, Catherine N e I s o n,
Donella Grobe, and Ruth Groves.
Refreshments consisting of cake
ice cream and coffee were served
before the meeting.
All School Sleigh Ride
Sponsored by Staffs
Over 100 Bethelites turned out
for the first all-school party of the
year, a sleigh ride sponsored joint-ly
by the Clarion and Spire staffs
on January 11.
Two bus loads took all the stu-dents
out to the Circle S Ranch,
on north Lexington Avenue, where
four horse-drawn sliegh took the
group on a wild ride in the wilds
of a wild pasture. Dean C. E.
Carlson was chaperone for t h e
After the ride, sandwiches, co-coa,
and cake were served in the
dining hall.
At its first meeting of 1946 the
school board voted unanimously to
authorize the —school's student
council to lay plans for raising
$100,000 for the erection of a gym-nasium,
and the purchase of ath-letic
equipment. A committee is
being formed, with representatives
of the alumni, the student council
a n d possibly t h e faculty a n d
school board, and the actual work
of gathering the funds will begin
The school is negotiating with
the village and with the owners of
the property north of the campus
to buy two full blocks of land, on
which the building would be built.
If present plans work out an ath-letic
field will also be laid out on
that property. However, if the
land cannot 'be purchased, the
field house would have to be built
on the present school property,
perhaps between the girls' dormi-tory
and the college building.
Attempts are also being made
to solve the problem of a baseball
field for this spring. If the school
is unable to purchase additional
property it may be possible to
make arrangements with the Minn-stota
State Department to provide
playing space in the fair grounds.
If necessary, a field could also be
set up on the present campus.
Progress Made on
Men's Dormitory
Work on the mens' dormitory
has been progressing in spite of
the cold weather. Workmen have
been laying the foundation, until
now the stones have risen several
feet above ground level. One can
now get some idea of the shape of
the large building, which when
complete will contain rooms for
eighty-nine men and a three-room

"But the greatest of these
"And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest
Is love."
In this summary statement of I Corinthians 13, Paul sets forth the
"cardinal virtues' of the Christian—faith, hope, and love. And he lays
special emphasis on love, saying that it is the greatest. The Preacher's
Homiletic Commentary says this: "Faith makes us strong by keeping
before us the great truths and realities of the world unseen. Hope
helps us on our way by filling our souls with the longing expectation
of the blessedness in store for us. But faith is cold, an hope is selfish
without love."
For the Christian there are two objects of love, God and his fellow-men.
"We love Him, because He first loved us." We love God because
of His salvation, His providence, His strength and help in times of
trouble. Because of His great love for our sinful selves, we in turn
have "fallen in love" with God.
But it is very hard to show God directly that we love Him. No
man has seen God at any time, and how shall we demonstrate our adoi-ation
to a Being we cannot comprehend? You remember what Christ
said—"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, ye have done it unto me." We can exhibit our love to God by
performing deeds of love unto our fellow-men—people, who we can see
and hear and feel. Our love for God, if real and true, leads us to love
every man, and the Bible goes so far as to say that "he that loveth
not knoweth not God." A man who says "I love God," and hates his
his brother, is, in the Bible's language, a liar. Devotion and love to
Jesus Christ results in devotion and love for those with whom we ming-le
here on earth.
There is power in love. If everyone on earth loved his neighbour
as himself, would not the ills of this world vanish? Can you visua-lize
the perfectness of life if it were permeated with an attitude of
love? Is it any wonder that Paul so forcefully emphasized its impor-tance?
One Sunday last fall I heard Robert Otto preach a sermon on the
"Greatest Sin in the World." It is no vice or sinful practice. It is simp-ly
hate. Hate is at the bottom of every evil act. What is the remedy?
Love, of course.
John writes, "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in
tongue, but in deed and in truth." Let us pray that as Christians we
may daily practice the love that we preach. Let love be the dominant
influence in our lives.

Not hurrying to, nor turning from,

Not mourning for the things that

To youth and age, and travels on

So let the way wind up the hill, or

Carpet By President Henry Wingblade
We have heard of the great
preacher a n d Bible commentator,
Matthew Henry. p
As a young man he was interest-ed
in a certain young lady, but
the father of the young lady was
not very enthusiastic.
He said, "Why do you want to
marry that young man? We don't
know much about him. We don't
know where he came from."
But, undaunted, the girl replied,
"Father, we may not know where
he came from, but I know where
he is going, and I am going with
him," and she did.
What is our goal today—schol-astically
and spiritually?
Speaking of grades, there really
is not so much difference between
an "A" and a"D", or even an "F"
—that is, it is quite easy to drop
from one to the other, of we do
not set the goal high, if we be-come
careless, if we take things
for granted.
It was Shakespere who said that
"mortals' chiefest enemy is false
The safe way is to determine to
know all about the subject, to
take no chances, to leave no "vul-nerable
Achilean heels" in the
combat. Then the examination be-comes
a "thrill" rather than a
"thraldom," and the consciousness
of victory, even before the battle,
makes for a calm and a confidence
which in turn builds strength and
character for future days and
"Hitch your wagon to a star,"
may sound old-fashioned—but it is
up-to-date. "Aim at the moon, if
you do hit the fence"—is not quite
right in connotation, for you need
not hit the fence if you really aim
at the moon—if you keep on aim-ing
and keep on working. Yes—
it does take work too, conscien-ious
and consistent work.

Sem Snatches Come Out of Hiding, Fellas, Dorm Doin's
Competition Starts Again By Bill Pete
As in former years the more
athletically-inclined m e m b e rs of
our happy household are beginn-ing
to revert to that most strenu-ous
and tiring pas time, volleyball.
Books, radios, bull sessions and all
the comforts of their luxurious
rooms are left behind, as practi-cally
the whole dorm roars down
the stairs to the tiny gym. There-after
there is no rest for the
Gus Lundberg family, who inhabit
the two room flat on the basement
floor. Everyone sets free all the
pent-up energy inside him, and the
din is terrific. Every blunder or
misplay is greeted by a storm of
playful ridicule. Screams of "girl"
or "Come on you weakling" mean
that some poor soul didn't get the
ball over the net on his serve. Af-ter
every game, somebody says,
"0. K., one more game," and often
the more studious individuals, who
long to return to their beloved
books, must be , persuaded quite
forcefully to remain f o r "o n e
game." And when the affair fin-ally
does break up, only a few Of
the now playful students are of a
mind to retire to die Bucher, and a
riotous session . in ye olde halles
inevitably ensues. Brother, what a
mess. Well that's life, I guess.
The trouble is you go to bed with
noise ringing in your ears, and you
wake up to the "same song, sev-enteenth
verse." Bells r in g i n g,
Bjelland shouting, "Hey, Sherman,
get up and get your linen," gentle-men
singing as they shave, doors
banging, alarm clocks calling their
sleepy owners to another day. You
roll over in your bed and wonder
if the place is ever quiet.
It will take a long time for Bud
Siegel to live down the occurrence
of a few weeks ago. He came up
the stairs after a date, and walked
in Sahlin's and Haring's room with
queer red marks on his f a c e.
When the boys called his atten-tion
to them, he gave out the in-
_ --
formation that he had gotten cut
and the red marks were blood.
Now, we would be the last to call
Siegel a liar, but does that sound
reasonable to you?

"Clearly, it's an ill wind that

Page 4 THE BETHEL CLARION
Bethel Takes Twin Bill
From Northwestern Here
Indians Win In
Bethel College won its second
consecutive game, on their own
court on Monday, January 21, by
defeating Northwestern Bible In-stitute
in a 33-32 thriller. It was
the second time the Indians had
won a game by one point.
Northwestern, jumped off to an
early lead of four points before the
Bethelites g o t rolling, b u t the
home team got back in the game
and took an impressive lead mid-way
in the second period. At half-time
Bethel led by eight points, as
the score stood 21-13.
For most of the second half the
Indians maintained a sex-point
lead, but i n the f i n a 1 quarter
Northwestern pulled up to within
three points, a n d another field
goal with about two minutes of
play remaining made the score 33-
32. Bethel then played a stalling
game, and managed to control the
ball for most of the remaining
Bud Siegel and Wayne Peterson
again led the scorers for the Tribe,
Siegel with seven points and Pet-erson
with six. However, Korver,
the tall Northwestern center, led
the scorers for both teams with
ten points, and Kastner of North-western
was runner-up with nine.

Girls Triumph
on Home Court
The Bethel girls' basketball
team took its fourth straight vic-tory
of the season from the North-western
girls on Monday, January
21. The score of the game which
was played on the Bethel court
was 39-31. The Squaws, who have
not been beaten this season, show-ed
good ability and worked to-gether
nicely to whip the scrappy
Northwestern team.
Northwestern jumped of to an
early lead, but Bethel soon ob-tained
-command in the game and
the visitors never again caught
them. The game was closer than
the score indicates, as Northwes-tern
constantly threatened to over-take
the Bethelites, but consistent
shooting by Deloris Erickson and
Carol Peterson kept the home
team out in front.
Erickson again led all scorers
as she made ten field goals and
three free throws for twenty-three
points. In the four games played
thus far Deloris has dropped in
90 points, a n d average o f 22.5
points per game. Bloyer of North-western
scored sixteen points for
runner-up honors, and Carol Pet-erson
of Bethel was third with
Cagers Blast
Waldorf Team
By 58-24 Score
On Friday, January 18, Bethel
College played its first Southern
Minnesota Junior College Confer-enec
game, and trounced Waldorf
College of Forest City, Iowa, 58-24.
The Waldorf five fought gamely
throughout the encounter but was
no match for the superior Bethel
The Indians jumped off to an
early six point lead a n d were
ahead 11-4, at the end of the first
quarter. The score at half-time
stood, Bethel 29, Waldorf 13. As
it turned out, the Bethelites scored
enough points in one half to win
the game and were in complete
mastery for most of the contest.
The scoring was very evenly dis-tributed,
but Wayne Peterson, Bud
Siegel, and Bob Nelson took top
honors with eleven, ten and eight
points respectively. Waldorf's high
man was Skaar who dropped four
field goals for eight points.

Bethel Girls
Winners Over
Saint Francis
In a hard game from beginning
to end, the Bethel squaws triumph-ed
over the St. Francis girls last
Friday, January 18, 1946. T h e
ganie, which was played on the
college gym floor, ended with the
score 34-31.
After the start of the second
halt- when St. Francis trailed by
10 points, the game began to move
along at a faster pace and by the
end of the 3rd quarter, St. Fran-cis
had gained enough ground to
bring the score up to 28-22, The
final quarter proved to be exciting
in every way with Bethel holding
only a slight lead right up to the
end of the game.
A loss was suffered by St. Fran-cis
when Horets, guard, went out
on fouls in the 3rd quarter. Out-standing
St. Francis' scorer was
Muellner, w h o made 12 of the
team's 31 points.
F o r Bethel, Captain Deloris
Erickson, was the highest scorer,
with 29 points to her credit.

World-renowned chef Roy Choi has partnered with Cheetos to bring a three-day pop-up concert to Hollywood, and the restaurant is so hot it only took 30 minutes for all its reservations to be booked.
The Flamin' Hot Spot will be open at 1835 N. Cahuenga Blvd. this Tuesday through Thursday — and despite the sold-out reservations, Choi suggests coming anyway, because it's just too good to miss.
"Either we'll sneak them through the back," Choi said, or there might be a cancelation.
The chef, known for popularizing gourmet food trucks and working to bring healthy food to unserved areas, said his union with the chip company was a no-brainer.
"I was already doing it before they called me — I was putting Cheetos in my food," he told KTLA.
The menu is packed with both sweet and savory fare, but all the dishes are unified by one ingredient: Cheetos.
"All the different things - from the meatballs, to the wings, to the burrito - there are different applications, some for crust, some in the marinade," Choi said. "But it's just having fun with them. Every single one came out great."
Diners at the pop-up on Tuesday gave it glowing reviews.
"This is amazing," said Kimberly Scott. "It's signature Roy."
Dishes include Flamin' Hot Wings, a five-alarm Cheetos steak, a Hot Cheetos Burrito and the Xxtra Flamin' Hot Rice Bowl. And if you're in the mood for dessert?
"They have a Sweetos - so it's like Cheetos, but sweet," Choi said. "So we used that for the pancakes and the churros."
But possibly the chef's favorite dish is possibly the Flamin' Hot Elotes.
"It's rolled in mayo and then rolled in the hot crust, and then covered with more cheese and lime," Choi said.
The Flamin' Hot Spot is open 5:30 p.m. to midnight through Sept. 20.

Bursting with natural talent and famed for his bulldozing runs and eye for goal, Roger Milla had the complete package as a striker and remains one of the greatest players Africa has ever produced.
His long career finally came to an end 15 years ago, but he remains a passionate fan of the game and recently shared his insights on modern football with FIFA.com.
The Cameroonian legend, who won admirers at three separate FIFA World Cups™, spoke about the development of the global game in all its various forms. A roving ambassador for his native country, Milla is also patron of the Coeur d'Afrique (Heart of Africa) foundation, which uses football to help tackle social problems.
FIFA.com: Tell us about your start in the game as a young footballer. How did you get your breakthrough?
Roger Milla: Football's been a part of me since my early childhood. I used to chase a ball whenever I got a chance, either in the street or on the playground. I signed my first licence as a player with Eclair de Douala at the age of 13. That was a real springboard for me because, five years later, I found myself in the national championship playing in the team of one of the best clubs in the country, Leopard de Douala.
What are your thoughts on the current state of football development, an area in which FIFA is heavily involved?
FIFA's role is essential. Their actions to promote football, especially in emerging nations, deserve to be recognised. Some countries are completely lacking when it comes to infrastructure. FIFA are a real asset to all the youngsters in those countries.
What is your take on the development of women's football at the moment?
I'm crazy about sport, so of course I follow women's football. In terms of technique, the women's game basically has no reason to be jealous of the men's. Its growth has been fantastic. For example, I followed our national team at the Olympic Tournament in London this summer and, despite their elimination in the first round, they clearly have talented players for the future.
The passion around the game there is the same as anywhere else and sometimes even more intense. The emotions felt on a football pitch can be the same in both amateur and professional football.
Roger Milla on his experiences of football at different levels of the sport
You played for prestigious clubs including Monaco, Montpellier and Saint-Etienne, but you also spent some time on the island of Reunion. What was it like playing football there?
I played for Saint-Pierroise at the end of my career. What struck me was the enthusiasm people had for the club, even though we were playing in a regional league which was the equivalent of the seventh division. The passion around the game there is the same as anywhere else and sometimes even more intense. The emotions felt on a football pitch can be the same in both amateur and professional football.
Who were your sporting idols as a youngster and what is your role in football today?
For me, football was undoubtedly all about Pele and that's not going to change any time soon. That said, Johan Cruyff was my other role model. He was one of a kind in the history of football. Nowadays, I still watch football games, of course, and I have a keen day-to-day interest in club results and the results of the Cameroonian national team. For example, I very much enjoy watching how our youngsters perform abroad. When I think about Fabrice Olinga, the Cameroonian at Malaga and the youngest scorer in the Liga at 16 years of age and 98 days, I tell myself that we have a new generation in the wings.
Have you ever considered involving yourself in the development of grassroots football?
I'm not directly involved in youth football, but I have an active role in it at a different level. I'm a roving ambassador for Cameroon and a member of the FIFA Football Committee. Those roles allow me to bring my experience to bear in the realm of youth football.
What advice would you give to budding footballers hoping to play at the highest level and have the kind of career you enjoyed?
For me, a young player needs humility and modesty. Those are important qualities if you want to break through in football and set yourself apart from the rest. The notion of respect is essential.
You set records which still stand as the oldest outfield player and the oldest goalscorer at a FIFA World Cup, aged 42 and one month. What do those records mean to you now, 15 years after retiring from the game?
It's an honour, but it's not hugely important for me. That remains a very fond memory, but, as people often say, records are made to be broken. And why not by another Cameroonian player?

Aneuploid, aneuploidy, colchicine, chromosome, diandry, digyny, diploid, haploid, polyploid, tetraploidy, triploidy.
Polyploidy is a genetic condition in which a cell has one or more extra sets of chromosomes. Nearly every cell in the body contains a nucleus, which contains two sets of chromosomes. These chromosomes contain DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), the building blocks of life. Each parent provides one set of 23 chromosomes to his or her offspring. Therefore, each person has 23 pairs of chromosomes. The X and Y chromosome are called sex-determining chromosomes because they distinguish males from females. Human females have a pair of X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.
Aneuploidy refers to an abnormal number of chromosomes. Aneuploidy in certain chromosomes, such as trisomy 16 (three copies of chromosome 16), prevents survival of the developing fetus.
Polyploidy occurs frequently in some organisms, such as goldfish, salmon, salamanders, and some plants, typically resulting in survival of these organisms. For example, different kinds of wheat exist because some have two sets of chromosomes, some have four sets, and others have six sets. Polyploidy may, in fact, result in the creation of a new species, as in the case of the plant salsify, in which two new tetraploid species of this plant developed from combinations of the original three species.
Although polyploidy is fairly common in these and other "lower" organisms, polyploidy is rare in humans. Some instances of polyploidy do exist in humans, particularly in some tissues, such as the liver, and in some cancers. Polyploidy in the liver indicates growth and can be observed when part of the liver is removed; polyploidy is increased when the cells begin to grow. Triploidy is a condition in which there are three complete sets of chromosomes in a single cell; in humans, this would be 69 sets of chromosomes per cell. Tetraploidy is a condition in which there are four complete sets of chromosomes in a single cell; in humans, this would be 92 sets of chromosomes per cell. A great majority of pregnancies in which the fetus has triploidy or tetraploidy end in miscarriage, or if the pregnancy goes to full term, will result in the infant's death shortly after birth.
Polyploidy may occur if chromosomes duplicate spontaneously, if a cell fails to divide after its chromosomes are duplicated, or if two sperm cells fertilize one egg during reproduction, which results in a fertilized egg with three sets of chromosomes (triploidy). Polyploidy can also occur through exposure some chemicals, including some used for chemotherapy in humans, and through exposure to colchicine in some plants.
Many cancer cells exhibit polyploidy, and laboratory studies in breast cancer cells have shown that suppression of these genes results in suppressed polyploidy.
In humans, polyploidy most often occurs when two sperm cells fertilize one egg. This results in the fertilized egg having three sets of chromosomes rather than two sets. Polyploidy is rare in humans; not only because the fetus typically cannot survive, but also because of the ability of the egg to shut itself off from accepting any more sperm once one has fertilized it. However, this mechanism does not work if two sperm happen to enter at the same exact time.
In plants, polyploidy can be induced through exposing the seeds of the plant to colchicine. Colchicine is a poisonous natural product from a plant called autumn crocus. Colchicine interferes with processes that occur during cellular division, resulting in half of the sex cells having no chromosomes and the other half having double the number. Although this would be fatal in humans, it typically produces plants with more desirable characteristics than the parent plants. Polyploid plants can also be bred with a plant with a normal number of chromosomes to produce desirable plants, such as seedless watermelons.
Polyploidy is detected through a chromosome analysis, or a karyotype. A karyotype is an organized profile of an individual's chromosomes. In this type of analysis, a person's chromosomes are stained so they can be seen under a microscope and a picture of them taken. Chromosomes are then cut out from the picture and arranged and numbered by size. Instead of having two identical chromosomes, an organism with polyploidy will have three identical chromosomes (triploidy) or four identical chromosomes (tetraploidy).
It is thought that polyploid cells are a common feature of many types of cancer cells. Research is being conducted to examine the effects of suppressing the breast cancer gene as a way to kill the cancer cells, but this research has not yet been conducted in humans. This information may ultimately lead to new targets specific to polyploidy cancer cells. Other studies have induced tetraploidy and aneuploidy to determine whether this may ultimately lead to cancerous cell development.
Triploidy occurs in about 2%-3% of human pregnancies and in about 15% of miscarriages, whereas tetraploidy occurs less frequently in pregnancies and in about 1%-2% of miscarriages. Most triploid conceptions end as miscarriage and those that do survive to term usually die shortly after birth. Polyploids tend to have defects in nearly all organs of the body, particularly the heart and central nervous system.
Triploidy can result when the extra set of chromosomes is received from the mother (digyny) or the father (diandry). Diandry usually occurs when an egg is fertilized by two sperm cells, while digyny is usually caused by failure of the egg to divide during cell division. Diandry is more common among early miscarriages, while digyny is more common in cases that survive into the fetal period. Triploidy should be distinguished from trisomy, which is when only one chromosome has three copies. Down syndrome is an example of trisomy, in which chromosome 21 has three copies instead of two; a person with trisomy 21 can survive well into adulthood and live a full life with relatively minor abnormalities.
Digyny triploidy typically produces a fetus that grows abnormally with marked underdevelopment of the adrenal gland, which is responsible for regulating the stress response, and a very small placenta. Among diandry triploids, the fetus appears to grow normally with normal adrenal development; however, they typically have abnormally large placental cysts.
Future research
Polyploidy rarely occurs among humans, although it can be found in certain tissues such as the liver. Polyploidy can be observed in liver tissue after a section of the liver is removed, and the cells start to grow. Many cancer cells exhibit polyploidy, which suggests that suppressing these particular genes may be an effective anticancer strategy. Studies have been conducted to examine the effects of suppressing the breast cancer gene as a way to kill the cancer cells, but this research has not yet been conducted in humans.
