The Veterans Administration to-day
cautioned veterans entering
schools and colleges this fall under
the G-I Bill that they must comply
with the regularly prescribed stan-dards
and practices of the educa-tional
institutions during their
period of enrollment.
Government-paid tuition to an
educational institution does not
place a veteran in a special privi-lege
class, VA said.
Student veterans must abide by
all the rules and regulations of
the institutions where they are
enrolled. They must maintain sati-sfactory
academic marks. Willful
misconduct or unsatisfactory pro-gress
are grounds for withdrawal
of subsistence and tuition pay-ments.
In the past, cases of willful
misconduct or unsatisfactory pro-gress
have been negligible and for
the most part student veterans

Bethel Quartet
Kept Busy
The Bethel Male Quartet which
was quite active during the past
summer representing Bethel is con-tinuing
its work now during the
school year. The quartet consists
of Bob Sandin, Don Patet, Paul
Leafblad, and Jim Rentz.
Recently on a trip to Iowa they
sang at the Burlington Y. F. C.
the evening of October 25. In the
morning they sang at the Burling-ton
Baptist church and at the
Davenport Church that evening.
On November 2, they sang in the
Wood; River and Falun Churches.
They sang at a luncheon of the
N. E. A. Educational Council at
the Curtis Hotel in Mpls. on Oct.
16. They have also taken part in
various revival meetings in and
around the Twin Cities.
Last Thursday (Nov. 6) they
sang at Stanchfield and Fish
Lakes. Sunday they visited Spring
Lake Park in the kiorning and
Powderhorn Park Baptist in the
evening. The future schedule
shows Payne Ave. Baptist in the
morning of the 16th and First
Baptist in Mpls. that evening. Nov.
20 they go to the Princeton Y. F: C.
rally. Dec. 6 they will sing at the
Marinette, Wisc. Y. F. C. rally
and will also sing at several places
while enroute including Menomi-nee
and Carnew, Mich.
They have an invitation to sing
at Moody Memorial Church in
Chicago after the first of the year.
Good reports have been received
from every place visited by the
quartet and return visits have been
requested by many.
sponse to the presentation Dr.
Karlson replied, "I love the Lord
and the Word of God and enjoy
serving Him this way."
Student Social
Aims Object of
S. C. Decisions
At one of its recent meetings,
the student council put into effect
a ruling, for the present school-year,
requiring at leaSt one all=
college function to be held eadh
month. In order to carry out this
policy, the Council will hold the
right to appoint one of the organi-zations
on the campus to sponsor
a social event if, during a particu-lar
month, some organization does
not plan to promote a social af-fair.
Possibilities of bringing more
programs of music appreciation
and visual education to the campus
has been discussed by the Council.
The Student Council has also
passed a ruling for the current
school year requiring students to
come in proper dress to
the Wednesday evening and Sunday
meals. Notice to this effect has a,
ready been posted near the et,
trance to the dining hall.
Swedish Club
Holds Meeting
The first meeting of the newly
organized Swedish Club was held
on the evening of Oct. 30 in the
lounge of Edgren Hall. The club
was organized for the purpose of
furthering the interest in the lan-guage
as well as things of a more
cultural nature.
Officers of the club were elected
at this meeting. Those elected
were: Marwin Lindstedt, presi-dent;
William Lindroth, vice-presi-dent;
and Joel Lingensjo, secre-tary-
treasurer. Mrs. Sjordal was
asked to serve as faculty adviser.
The speaker for the evening was
Professor Swan Engwall, who
spoke briefly and in Swedish on
the First Psalm. The Swedish -lan-guage
was used as much as possi-ble
throughout the entire meeting.
Refreshments were served after
the meeting.
Future plans call for talks and
other special features on many
subjects. Plans are now in pro-gress
to secure some special mov-ies
on Sweden to be shown at an
early date.

We live in civilization where our standards,
principles of living, and morals are being
tested in the crucible of modern trends.
Surely we need to examine ourselves in the
glow of the illuminating truth of the Master
summarized in these words, "We are in the
world but not of it".
Naturally it would be futile for us to in-terpret
this truth of Christian separation as
a monk did in the early centuries of Christ-ianity;
isolating himself on a tower where
food and raiment were supplied to him he
actually kept himself aloof or separated from
the world. Indeed, he had his association with
the secular reduced to a minimum, but we
might rightfully raise the question as to
whether or not he was making his life worth-while
to himself or anybody else. The other
extreme, of course, is exhibited by he who
loses his identity as a Christian in the anLi-christian
trends about him; neither does he
exert an influence for Jesus Christ. Being
identified with Christ may we find our proper
places of service in this transitory world; and,
being faithful in those spheres of service, may
we maintain our standards and our allegiance
as those who are "not of this world" but
at the same time making our lives effective
"in it".
S. J. Schultz
Conference Contest
The Board of Publications of the Baptist
General Conference has announced a contest
for writing a historical-novel. Purpose for the
contest is to aid in constructing a literature_
which will propagate Swedish-Baptish history
in this country.
Bethel Conference students-315 strong—
here is your chance for an interesting and
profitable study into the background of a
rich pioneering heritage. Bethel College and
Seminary stands today as an outstanding
witness to the foresight and faith of those
sturdy folk who made up the early member-ship
of the Swedish Baptish Conference.
This contest offers a real challenge, even
an obligation, to the students and alumni
of Bethel: Our school has been developed on
the basic principle that it is training leader-ship
for the Conference. Therefore the future
leaders should become informed of Con-ference
history. Futhermore the need is easily
recognized for an account of Swedish-Baptist
background in popularized form which such
a novel would furnish. A book of this nature
will be a helpful contribution toward the
establishment of a Baptist General Conference
Entries are due on or before January 1,1950
which means there are two years, one month,
and two weeks left. Term papers would
offer an excellent opportunity for beginning
certain phases of such a manuscript.
This will be strictly escape literature Never
mind where it escaped from. Our world is get-ting
too grim. We must jest.
I understand that Carol Hedberg (who be-lives
the longer skirts are just a lot of below-knee)
has had another birthday—and if any-body
is entitled to one, she certainly is.
All this leads up, (how?) as we hoped it
would, to a new poem by Raymond Hosken,
stolen from the Chicago Tribune. The title, it
will be noted, is apropos;
The obvious he would eschew.
The blood which bathes his veins is blue;
Since not the stoutest cell alive
Could in such essence long survive.
Within his narrow skull is tamped
Assorted knowledge, sorely cramped;
And Scholarlike, his features show
Reluctant chin, emphatic brow.
Sign of imposing Intellect,
His shell-him spectacles protect
Eyes weakened by excessive reading,
Steam heat, soft diet, and inbreeding.
Say, before I forget, Jim Rentz asked me to
insert the following ad: FOR SALE—one
Havana straw hat. Also, one pair of muddy
shoes. Will trade for marbles. Contact J. R.
in Room 111—Municipal Jail. (Ed. note: Jim
has been running around without his trumpet
As I come to the conclusion of this docu-ment,
I'm reminded of that grand sentiment
that was so beautifully expressed in the ori-ginal
French by the great Napoleon Bonaparte
when he re-visited the Palace of Versailles
for the first time after his initial imprison-ment
in Elba. He was walking across the
center courtyard with Talleyrand when he
returned his sad, experienced eyes to his
companion and said from the depths of his
heart: "Qui est dans le corridor?"

During the interlude between issues of The
Clarion I have been noting topics of con-versation
among the various groups of
students gathered in the Coffee Shop or the
lounges in either dorm. or the ever-present
coffee parties. Besides the weather and the
opinions of Sadie Hawkins Day, the following
two "gripes", shall we say, were quite pre-valent:
1. Three bells at the end of the Chapel
period, besides being an insult to the
speaker, are quite annoying and wholly un-necessary.
2. The Convocations should present more
speakers on current events, political affairs
and other world problems rather than second-rate
exhibits and movies which the University
of Minnesota sends over to us at their own
Now, these points of view could be elabor-ated
on quite extensively but I'm sure that
would be quite unnecessary. The only addit-ion
I would like to make is that the return
of Convocations to their place in the daily
schedule once a month would be in keeping
with the expansion of Bethel's program since
it would make these programs available
to the entire student body. Why should com-muters
or those with evening responsibilities
have to pay for a program which it is im-possible
to attend?
The Christian ministry pays great dividends.
To be sure the physical remuneration may
not be as large as in other professions. Indeed
it is much smaller even for men of equal
ability; equal preparation, and equal applicat-ion.
Still it should be realized that God does
not leave the Christian ministry stranded on
an island of desolation in the midst of great
abundance. What holds true of the Christian
in general holds true of -the Christian min-istry
in particular. David said: "I have been
young and now am, old; yet have I not seen
the righteous forsaken, nor his seeed begging
bread". But it is also true that "The Lord
ordained that they that proclaim the gospel
should live by the gospel."
The daily provision is, however, not a
dividend how scanty or how abundant it
yet may be. The dividend comes in the result,
or the fruit of the labor. It always does.
And here there is no comparison between
the Christian ministry. and other professions.
Lives saved for time and eternity is the
great dividend of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Life, the soul, is the most precious thing
we have. The soul lost, everything is lost;
the soul gained, everything is gained. "For
what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain
the whole world, and forfeit his life? Or
what shall a man give in exchange for his
And it is the business of the Christian
ministry to save souls, a great and ever-lasting

One of the war-time booms in
which Bethel has failed to capital-ize
is aviation. There has been too
little agitation from those who re-alize
the possibilities that Christian
Aviation presents. A program for
Bethel students would be practical
in many respects.
Highly imaginitive thinking may
see the pastor taking off each
morning in his airplane for several
pastoral calls and flying back again
for the evening prayer meeting or
the afternoon Ladies' Aid. For the
present, however, we must be re
alistic and note that the cost of
initial purchase, cost of maintane-nce
and lack of landing facilities
put such a program in the "highly
imaginative" category.
But aviation can be put to good
use in fields where rapid transpor-tation
is urgent. The one crying
need for such a program is the
mission field. It has been said that
in certain parts of Mexico a plane
can take a missionary farther in
five minutes than it is possible to
travel by ordinary transportation
in a whole day. Read a few letters
from evangelistic missionaries and
note the time they spend in travel-ing.
Of course it is admitted that not
all mission fields are suited to avia-tion.
Few, if any, have adequate
landing facilities for the convent-ional
wheel landings, but many
fields could be adapted for use of
amphibian aircraft. In flying over
jungles it is noticed that most set-tlements
are located close to the
rivers,thus making them ideal for
approach by amphibian aircraft.
One of the mistaken ideas of
flight training is that anyone who
has soloed is qualified to fly an
airplane. It could be done, but
many replacements would be need-ed
for those who missed a land-mark,
flew into thunderhead or
misjudged a landing. The course
must be an extensive one that
would make all graduates fully
qualified for their respective field.
Aviation ii s not a simple program.
Airplanes must be available, and
qualified air and ground instruct-ors
and mechanics obtained. It is
encouraging to note that Bethel
has a former navigator as a pro-fessor
and several mechanics
among the students. All we lack are
airplanes and arrangements with a
flying school. Neither of these are
unsurmountable barriers. A flying
program for Bethel might well be
an immediate prospect.

Sports Sketch
One of the hometown boys on
the football team this year is
Warren Palmquist. Anyone who is
familiar with the squad knows that
so far this Junior has been one of
its standouts at the right tackle
Warren graduated from Johnson
High in Saint Paul a few years
ago. While there, he played two
years at tackle. He was on the
track team for three years. At
Bethel his athletic accomplish-ments
have been limited up to now
to baseball which he played last
year as an outfielder. Playing foot-ball
this year on Bethel's first
team in many years, Warren has
been one of the bulwarks of the
team. His 210 pounds plus a six
foot frame have provided much
needed weight in an otherwise
comparatively light line. His ex-perience
and fine spirit have pro-vided
much needed strength.
Warren is a member of the

in the Twin Cities. He is prepar-ing

First Call Out
For Basketball
Last week coach Edwards called
for all basketball players to report
for practice Monday nite. Twenty-one
"hopefuls" donned their gym
suits and worked up a sweat in an
effort to impress the coach with
their ability. This number was in-creased
considerably later in the
week when last year's lettermen
were added to the list, and after
a brief rest following the close
of the football season several more
players are expected to report.
With the return of all of last year's
lettermen, excepting Bob Sandin,
and the addition of some height
anmong the new members of the
team, the Indian's basketball pro-spects
look very bright.
The opening league game is
scheduled for December 11, down
at Rochester; however, a couple
non-conference home games are
tentatively scheduled for the first
week in December.
Snow Drifts
On Gridiron
The Indians already brief sche-dule
was curtailed still further
last week by ole man weather
who took delight in going one
getter than he did for the Austin
game. A light rain began to fall
late Thursday afternoon and con-tinued
on through the night, and
this led to the re-christening of
the gridiron. For a brief time Fri-day
morning Edwards Field was
known as Lake Bethel, but the
chilly breath of winter turned the
still falling rain into hail and then
snow, turning the lake into a
desert of snow. Though forewarned
of the weather conditions in the
Twin cities, the Gogebic football
team braved the storm to come
down here, only to be convinced
of the impossibility to play the
game. However, their trip was not
entirely in vain for under the
sponsership of a civic organization
in Ironwood, Michigan, they were
treated to the Purdue-Minnesota
football game on Saturday.
Though the cancellation was a
disappointment for our team, it
undoubtedly worked to their ad-vantage
in that they had another
game within four days.
Chapel Service
Given by Team
Bethel's football team demon-strated
their ability in a field
other than football last Friday
by taking charge of the morning
chapel service. Roy Nelson, co-captain
of the team, led the
service, and Bob Daley brought
a brief devotional message. In the
absence of Coach Skalbeck, co-captain.
Warren Palmquist spoke
briefly expressing the sentinment
of the team concerning their ex-periences
in football this year.
Testimoniess of salvation and
trust in the Lord were given by
Al Olsson and Palmquist, and testi-monies
in song were given by the
Johnson brothers and Bob Man-tzke.
For this service the team
members sat in a group at the
front of the chapel and were re-cognized
by standingg and singing
a verse of a hymn.
On the Sidelines
Well, fans, by the time you get
this article the Indians will have
played Gogebic and Esterville
junior colleges, and Bethel's first
official football season will be
over. It would be nice if the boys
could find that scoring combination
and come through with Aa, couple
victories to ring down the curtain
in grand style, but even if they
don't win we can be proud of the
hard work they have done to
establish football at our school.
From the beginning our team
has faced many handicaps such as
a late start, only seven experienced
football players, and a small
squad. Coach Skalbeck's task in
forming a team was made even
more difficult because his promised
help in coaching never did materia-lize.
Injuries made it difficult to
have even intra-squad scrimmage,
and made it necessary for some
men to play three or four different
positions. All this might impress
the critically minded as so much ex-cuse
making, but these are just
plain facts that added up to a lot
of headaches for the coach and
a lot of rough work for the team.
Sure, they were- green and made
a lot of mistakes, but they had a
lot of fight and gave of their best
to the game.
And what's more im
portant they gave a fine testimony
of Christian living. Compliments
were received from the oposition
for the fine spirit and clean play
of our team. But the highest honor
paid the team came from our own
coach. Regarding the request for
prayer made before each game
the coach said, "That a the finest
thing I've ever seen in football."
We hope that this procedure is
one that will always oe held in
high esteem by all of Bethel's
athletic teams. GOOD WORK,
Before the ole pigskin is put
away in mothballs we would like
to remind you fans to do a little
scouting for next year's team. If
you have a kind brother or some
friend back home who is a whiz
at playing football, be sure to let
him know that we've got it. May-be
not next year, but the followrng
year we can really have a good
ball club if we all work together
for it.

Answer "No" or "Yes" to these
questions culled from VARSITY,
young men's magazine. If you
answer "No" to at least 11, you're
a pretty fair roommate; 13 to 17
means you're wonderful; more
than 17 indicates you're too good
to be true. If, on the other hand,
your "No's" are below9, we suggest
that you become a hermit.

Cuban lawmakers OK key foreign investment law
HAVANA (AP) — Cuban lawmakers on Saturday approved a law aimed at making Cuba more attractive to foreign investors, a measure seen as vital for the island's struggling economy.
Meeting in an extraordinary session, parliament replaced a 1995 foreign investment law that has lured less overseas capital than the island's Communist leaders had hoped.
Cuba's GDP expanded 2.7 percent last year, below targets and weak for a developing nation. Government officials say the economy needs 5 to 7 percent annual growth to develop properly.
"Cuba needs from $2 billion to $2.5 billion a year in direct foreign investment to advance its socialist socio-economic model, prosperous and sustainable," said Marino Murillo, a vice president and the czar of President Raul Castro's economic reforms.
"Not using those sources would retard national development," Murillo told lawmakers in comments broadcast on state television, where news of the approval was announced.
Murillo said Cuba will especially look for agricultural investment.
Foreign media were not given access to the closed-door meeting.
Some details of the legislation emerged in official media in recent days. Among other things, it would cut taxes on profits by about half, to 15 percent, and make companies exempt from paying taxes for the first eight years of operation.
An exception would affect companies that exploit natural resources, such as nickel or fossil fuels. They could pay taxes as high as 50 percent.
Meanwhile, many foreigners doing business with the island would be exempt from paying personal income tax.
Cuban-born economist and University of Pittsburgh professor emeritus Carmelo Mesa-Lago said elements such as lower taxes, a shorter timeline for approvals and the ability to invest in property send encouraging signals, but it's too early to tell.
"The test of the law is how it will be implemented in practice," Mesa-Lago said.
Investment projects wholly funded by foreign capital would be explicitly allowed in all sectors except health care and education, something that is essentially unheard of today.
But Murillo's remarks suggested the government intends to continue in at least a watchdog role "so that there is no concentration of property."
"What the new law establishes is that the state must always be there," he said.
It's also not clear that wholly foreign-owned ventures would enjoy the same tax benefits.
Washington's 52-year-old economic embargo on Cuba prevents most U.S. trade with the island and includes sanctions to discourage foreign outfits from doing business with Havana.
Cuban officials promise there will be no nationalizations of property, as happened after the 1959 Cuban Revolution, except in cases of national interest and only with compensation.
The investment law is a fundamental part of Castro's package of reforms, begun in 2008 with the stated goal of "updating" Cuba's economic model.
Hundreds of thousands of Cubans are now legally working independently of the state in a nascent private sector, though authorities say they are not abandoning socialism.
Analysts say Cuba must demonstrate that it is truly open to foreign private investment after nearly five decades of government control of the economy.
Meanwhile a recent corruption crackdown led to the imprisonment of a number of foreigners, as well as dozens of Cuban officials and executives, sending a chill through the foreign business community.
Former Cuban Central Bank economist Pavel Vidal said foreign investment has averaged 20 percent less than forecast in the years since Castro's reforms began.
In a recent report, he wrote that the investment law represents "the last opportunity for the reform to come close to the growth goals planned through 2016."
Cuba's parliament usually meets twice a year, in July and December. Castro announced the extraordinary session late last year.
Associated Press writer Peter Orsi in Havana contributed.
