The Kingsmen from South St. Paul high school entertained a full
house at the campus hootenanny last Saturday evening. The audience
responded enthusiastically to five folk singing groups, including three
from Bethel, one from Augsburg college and the Kingsmen. Tuffy Bry-ant
was emcee for the program.

Theme of this year's conference,
according to Richard Nelson,
Bethel's representative on the in-ter-

students of seminaries with the
civil rights movement through un-derstanding
of the volunteer and
government agencies related to
civil rights and racial problems."
Speakers for the main sessions
are Samuel Jones, director of the
St. Paul Urban league and James
McDonald of the State Commis-sion
Against Discrimination.
Representatives from the Nation-al
Association for the Advance-ment
of Colored People, Congress
of Racial Equality, State Commis-sion
Against Discrimination and
the Urban league will be on hand
as resource men for discussion
sessions among the seminarians.
Regular chapel hour in the sem-inary
on April 7 will introduce the
theological implications of the civil
rights movement. Bethel will ex-change
speakers for this chapel
with Northwestern Lutheran sem-inary.
Other seminaries participating
in the Inter-Seminary confer-ence
are United Theological

Bastian Speaks In Chapel Hour,
Delivers Pre-Easter Messages
Concerned Seminarians
Seek College Friends
Seminarians have expressed a legitimate concern over
the decreasing number of college students involved in pre-seminary
studies. Membership and interest in the Pre-seminary
Student association is on the decline. Enrollment in the semin-ary
has remained relatively static while enrollment in the col-lege
has jumped from 580 in 1959 to the present enrollment of
over 800.
Recognizing the need for action, seminarians have tried
to challenge college fellows to consider the ministry as a voca-tion
and to enter the seminary. To do this they gave a presen-tation
in the college chapel last fall. They have also invited
interested college students to ask questions as one seminary
student did in a letter to the December 11 CLARION.
But how many disinterested college students are going
to decide to prepare for the ministry because of one chapel
message? How many disinterested fellows are going to flag
down the seminarian who hurries from the library to that
austere brown building on the corner to ask him a question?
Perhaps seminarians could more effectively recruit col-lege
students for the seminary if they made personal contacts
and established friendship with college students. College stu-dents
know very few seminarians personally. They may see a
few nameless faces in the coffee shop who come over from
the seminary and chat over coffee with each other.
Or they may see a seminarian's back as he pores over a
book on the seminary side of the library. Possibly a few college
students might get to know the seminarians who play in intra-murals
or direct youth activities in a church. But, by and large,
seminarians are not personally known around the college cam-pus.
Of course seminary students are busy; many have fami-lies
and heavy work schedules. Yet if they are concerned
for the future of the seminary they will make time to estab-lish
personal friendships with college fellows and use these
friendships as opportunities to influence vocational decisions
their college friends make.
Whether seminarians and college students make personal
contact in the coffee shop, intramurals, the library or in church
work, the contact must come from the personal initiative and
concern of individual seminarians.

Aesthetics Is.. .
Dear Editor:
From the tone of David Aune's
letter, I am under the impression
that he speaks from within the ev-angelical
Christian context. If so,
I regret that I must expose our
differences rather than our simil-arities.
My article which appeared in the
March 11 CLARION was on the
lack of a system of aesthetics from
the perspective of orthodox ev-angelical
Christianity; not "Chris-tianity
and the arts" as Aune
stated. Many volumes have been
published on Christianity and the
arts and aesthetics.
However, orthodox evangelical
Christianity definitely lacks a
system of aesthetics based on
Biblical presuppositions and con-sistent
with the philosophy of
Augustine, Luther, Calvin, etc.
To state that "Dr. Kilby . . . has
grappled with the major problems
of Christianity and the arts within
the scope of his booklet" (38 pages)
is to lack a full and clear under-standing
of the problems involved.
At best, the booklet merely out-lines
some of the issues involved
in aesthetics.
The only prominent Christian
writer who has "grappled" with
the real problems of Christian
aesthetics is Dorothy Sayers in her
Mind of The Maker and her essay
Towards a Christian Aesthetics.
Aune's statement that "The
beginnings of any significant
work in this area will undoubt-edly
be forthcoming from reflec-tive
artists themselves rather
than prominent evangelical aes-theticians"
implies that the arts
precede the aesthetic-philosophi-cal
reflections. History shows
that the philosopher - aestheti-cians
have always preceded the
It is the philosophers who form
the cultural context in which the
artists work. The reverse is not
true. It is the task of the Christian
philosopher to show the import-ance
of an aesthetic expression in
the Christian faith. When this is
accomplished the church will not
fail to produce the art forms.
The crux of the problem is that
there are no "adequate theories
of beauty which are tailor-made for
evangelicals." Rader's A Modern
Book of Aesthetics does not have a
single selection which is consistent
with evangelical Christian philo-sophy.
(Incidently, Weitz's Prob-lems
in Aesthetics and Philipson's
Aesthetics Today are more com-plete
and up-to-date reference for
studies in aesthetics.)
Although I have accentuated our
differences, I am grateful to Aune
for giving me the opportunity to
clarify my position.

The Lord's Suffering Servant
by Dan Martinez
Many were astonished at him, his appearance was so marred, be-yond
that of human semblance, and his form beyond that of the
sons of men, so shall he startle many nations; kings shall shut
their mouths because of him; for that which has not been told
them they shall see, and that which they have not heard they
shall understand.
"Father, forgive them, for they know not
what they do."
Who has believed what we have heard?
To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
He grew up before him like a young plant,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no form nor comeliness that we
should look at him, and no beauty that
we should desire him.
"Truly, I say to you, today you will be
with me in Paradise."
He was despised and rejected by men; a
man of sorrows, and acquainted with
grief; and as one from whom men hide
their faces.
He was despised.
We esteemed him not.
"Woman, behold your son!"
"Behold, your mother!"
Surely he has borne our grief and carried
our sorrows.
We esteemed him stricken, smitten by
God, and afflicted.
"My God, my God, why hest thou forsaken
He was wounded for our transgressions.
He was bruised for our iniquities.
Upon him was the chastisement that made
us whole.
With his stripes we are healed.
"I thirst."
All we like sheep have gone astray.
We have turned every one to his own way.
The Lord has laid on him the iniquity of
us all.
"It is finished."
He was oppressed.
He was afflicted.
He opened not his mouth.
Like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its
shearers is dumb, so he opened not his
"Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit."
By oppression and judgement he was taken away; and as his gener-ation,
who considered that he was cut of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people? And they made his
grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although
he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.
Yet it was the will of the Lord to bruise him; he has put him to
grief when he makes himself an offering for sin, he shall prolong
his days; the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

Forensic tournament is Fred Lund. Jim Keim completes the

Campus Raises
`Home Fund' by Jim Spiceland
Most of the campus community
is well acquainted with Waprenyi
Kapfo, seminary student from
Nagaland, near the Indian-Burmese
His friends appreciate his intel-ligent
Christian faith and deep
love for his home. After seminary,
Waprenyi's desire is to return to
Nagaland and serve his people as
a minister of the gospel.
He will not return to the same
home he. left. Three weeks ago
the house that Waprenyi built
for his mother before leaving
for America was burned to the
ground. All of the family belong-ings
perished in the fire.
In the villages of northeast India
insurance policies are unheard of.
Benevolent neighbors are making
every effort to help the family get
re-established, but such a total
destruction of the family belong-ings
cannot be handled by the vil-lagers.
They will need help.
Our Christian faith teaches that
a deep active love for the brethren
is an evidence of our love for God.
With this in view the religious
committee has established the
"Home Fund," through which the
entire campus community can con-tribute
to Waprenyi's efforts.
Residents of Edgren and Bo-dien
can give through their dor-mitory
council hall representa-tives.
Counselors will take con-tributions
in Hagstrom. A booth
will be in the student center this
week for those who desire to
give in that location.
All others who read this paper
and desire to participate may send
contributions to Home Fund, re-ligious

Debate squad's season record
varied widely. After a third place
at the Iowa State Tournament in
Ames, Bethel's debate performance
stalled. But the win-loss record
conceals both individual abilities
and negative factors.
First, the topic required re-search
facilities available only at
the University and public librar-ies.
Second, insufficient student
personnel compounded the prob-lem.
Varsity debaters attended
no tournaments between early
January and early March for
lack of debaters.
Third, the already weak affirma-tive
position was further under-mined
by legislation passed in
Congress during December. The
best affirmative record at Madison
was 3-2, while the best negative
score was 5-0.
Bethel debaters need make few
apologies. Despite these difficul-ties
their record has been com-mendable,
always seeming to come
just short of visible recognition.

has been Evan's guiding philo-sophy
that senate members

in great part the realization of
these goals. Of course, better stu-dent

but on the whole stu-dents
have become more conscious
of them.

been rewarding social events. The

in getting started aims at sending
a student into New York inter-city

Most of all, there has been a
decided awakening to the need to
demonstrate the deep worth of the
ministry and its relevancy and call
to Bethel college students. This
found expression in the seminar-ians'
presentation of that subject
in chapel last fall.

Baseball captain, Dave Buck approves of Doug Kelly's moves as
a pitcher. Jim Austin and Gene Selander are also pitchers on Coach Dave
Cox's staff. Austin will be a starting pitcher in addition to his regular
duties at third base. Selander and Kelly will see action as pitchers. Bob
Nolin, freshman letterman in football and basketball, has his eye on
second baseman's spot. Buck will again be seen hustling in centerfield.
Weather Slows Team
As New Season Nears
by Mike Rynkiewich
Bethel's Letterman's club, commonly known as the "B" club, held
initiations last Friday. This was the first initiation to be held in three
years. In that time the "B" club has been near the state of non-existence,
but renewed activity predicts a change.
The 12 remaining members of the "B" club decided not only to
rejuvenate the club, but also to make it one of the most active groups
on campus. So they drew up a new constitution and added some 25 to
30 new members. In the fall it should really start functioning as a club.
I am glad to see the Letterman's club get back into action for two
reasons. First, being a member of the club unites the athletes under
meaningful symbols. As it is now, just about anyone can wear a "B"
jacket around campus. The insignia and jacket will both be replaced
with new "B" club symbols.
The jacket will be available to pledge members, but the insignia
only to plenary members. Founding Fathers of the "B" club used
"plenary" to designate athletes who have earned either 2 letters in
one sport or 3 letters in a combination of sports.
Secondly, an organized group of athletes can be beneficial to the
school. In the preamble to the proposed constitution there is a statement
that the "B" club exists "for the purpose of promoting better coordina-tion
of its activities and a closer relationship between administration,
faculty and students. It is our desire that the objectives of the school
prevail in all our activities and meetings."
For the good of athletics and the school I want to encourage the
development of the "B" club into a strong and helpful campus group.-
After Easter vacation I want to introduce a new feature on this
page. The article will be an addition to the sports editorial and will be
named, Meet A Royal. Its main function will be to acquaint you with
Bethel's athletes.
Seven out of ten students know an athlete's name, but cannot as-sociate
it with a face. Even if the name and face are known, few stu-dents
know anything about the athlete. In this article I intend to give
you a short biography of the athlete, tell what he is now doing on
campus and what his future plans may be.
This article will help you get to know your representatives in
athletics. I want you to be familiar with athletes as personalities, not
just as six square feet out of one square mile of flesh.

Unaweep Wall Trip Report
By Rob Pizem
Adventure (verb): Engage in hazardous and exciting activity, esp. the exploration of unknown territory
This past weekend, that is what my friend, Jesse Zacher and I had hoped to do. We were after an adventure into new terrain and onto new stone. And an adventure (noun) was what we experienced.
Jesse had enlisted a new friend, Ryan from North Carolina, to help us schlep water and supplies to the base of the wall because it was going to be in the 90's all weekend and we couldn't haul all the goods ourselves. He told him that the hike would be through wild terrain. So on Friday, after getting off work, it didn't take long to find that out just how "wild" the terrain actually was. I found myself passing 70lb packs over barbed wire within one minute of leaving the truck. The next moment, we found ourselves navigating a river crossing on moss covered polished rocks. Soon after, we were faced with having to claw our way up a 100 yards of steep hillside. What made that difficult was the six foot tall black berry and raspberry bushes. Tasty as they were, their thorns punished us for our trespassing. Did I mention that Ryan did all this while wearing his Chaco sandals? What a trooper! The first thing we asked this guy (who we didn't even know) was to bushwhack through hell! And with feet bleeding, he smiled every bit of the way!
After that things got easier, and the last major obstacle was the thousand foot of elevation gain on the slippery, ball bearing sized decomposed granite. Our initial plan was to climb the direct east face, (where the only known route was located) but as we got closer to the wall we observed that it was full of ledges and broken up faces. Not very aesthetic, nor what we were after on this adventure.
Instead of climbing what looked like garbage, we hiked further around the base of the wall and up even more talus until we sat below the most continuously steep face on the wall. From there we were able to choose a new objective. We dugout camping spots and watched the evening fade, waiting for the following day. The stone was great and there were unconnected cracks everywhere. We had found the mother lode. We awoke early on Saturday. The sun was up before us and was already illuminating the face above our tent with golden light. After a long night of hearing rock fall it was a pleasant beginning to a long day on our new objective.
Jesse slayed the smooth steep, six foot wide gulley that required more face climbing than crack. After a few minutes, he reached a belay high on the wall. I followed the technical and thoughtful climbing to the belay and was glad to be seconding. We were off. The rest of the day became a blurr, filled full of false starts, loose rock, cut hands, sharp jams, rock fall, and cleaning dirty cracks. We took it all in stride, we were relishing the moment of stabbing into the unknown. All that mattered was the next pitch, the next hand and foot hold, the next contraction and release of muscle that would lead us upwards. It culminated with both of us bonking at the summit, with dirty faces and goofy smiles. We worked late into the afternoon rigging the decent and barely stumbling back to camp where we chugged water and stared up at our accomplishment.
All things considered, it was a total pain in the butt. But all things considered, we hiked into unknown terrain and established a completely new line ground up and free. After rehydrating and resting, we noticed that the tent now sported a new skylight. A golf ball sized hole, through which the rain from the threatening clouds was about to funnel in through. It was time to finish this adventure and plan on the next one.
Thanks to Arcteryx, SCARPA, Sterling, CAMP-USA and Wind-Xtreme for all the gear and faith.
Get outside and have your own adventure!

Nov. 10, 2006
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - MIT made history for the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) on Friday as it set up the first all-NEWMAC NCAA Women's Volleyball New England Regional Final following a 30-27, 30-22, 25-30, 30-27, victory over Amherst College. The No. 2 Engineers (33-5) will host No. 1 U.S. Coast Guard Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 11. The winner will advance to the national championship which will be held Nov. 16-18 in Salem, Va.
The last time MIT advanced past the second round of the NCAA Tournament was in 1984 when it lost in the national championship. Coast Guard fell in the second round of their three previous trips to the tournament. Live play-by-play and color commentary for Saturday's match can be heard by logging on to www.sportsjuice.com.
In the opening game, the Jeffs (28-5) turned a 6-6 tie into an 11-6 lead. Amherst maintained the five-point margin until MIT went on a six-point run that resulted in a 15-14 edge. The Jeffs regained the lead at 19-17, but the Engineers scored eight of the next nine points to go ahead, 25-20. Amherst took the next four points, which forced a timeout by MIT. Tech took the point coming out of the break, which helped it generate enough momentum to close out the game.
In the second stanza, the Engineers established a 5-2 advantage. Sparked by a service error, Amherst captured four consecutive points for a 7-5 lead. With the game knotted at nine, MIT went on a four-point run to take the lead for good. The Jeffs narrowed their deficit to one (17-16), but it was as close as they would get as the Engineers won 13 of the next 19 points.
The early stages of the third frame mirrored the previous game, with MIT holding a three-point lead (6-3) and Amherst using a service error to take an 8-6 advantage. The game was a back-and-forth battle that saw the lead change nine times until the Jeffs went ahead, 23-22, later forcing a fourth game.
In the final game, Amherst built a six-point cushion (13-7) that held for the majority of the frame. Trailing 23-19, MIT scored six unanswered points for its first lead since the early stages of the game. Both sides traded points until the Engineers tallied three in a row to set up match point. The Jeffs won back-to-back points, but the late rally would not be enough.
With 60 assists, Amanda Morris moved closer to breaking the Institute record for assists in season while collecting 23 digs. The junior setter raised her mark to 1,352, needing just three more assists to set a new standard. Frances Rogoz powered MIT's offense with 21 kills while Alex May posted a double-double on 20 kills and 23 digs. Katie Rowe contributed 16 kills and a team-high eight blocks and three aces as Rogoz and Briana Stephenson both notched seven blocks. Alexandra Huston-Carico bolstered the blocking corps' performance with five stops. Carrie Buchanan collected a match-high 32 digs while Rose Zhong and Lindsay Hunting posted 17 and 10, respectively.
Jaclyn DeMais, Whitney Kouvaris, and Sara Heller recorded double-doubles for Amherst. DeMais finished with 26 kills and 21 digs, followed by Kouvaris' 15 kills and 25 digs and Heller's 47 assists and 14 digs. Kristin Quinn registered 13 kills while Laura Golden and Bethany Belisle amassed 17 and 15 digs, respectively.

'True Blood' Season 6: Courtney Ford Joins Returning Cast
We're only days from the hotly-anticipated 'True Blood' season 6 premiere on HBO, and yet the guest list continues to grow. The latest to join (or, in this case, return to) the fang-banging horror drama's sixth season is season 4 star Courtney Ford, but what would the characters need with a lawyer when humanity declares war on vampires?
TVGuide first revealed the return, adding that Ford would reprise her role as attorney (and Bill's semi-incestuous great-great-great-great granddaughter) Portia Bellefleur in the seventh episode of the season, having last been seen glamored into staying away from Bill in season 4. "After watching the Season 5 finale, which was pretty intense and crazy, things are getting a little heated in Bon Temps and it stands to reason that someone is going to need a lawyer," Ford told the website.
Ford join the 'True Blood' season 6 guest cast of returning 'Last Resort' star Robert Patrick, Anna Camp's Sarah Newlin, Luke Grimes as the "Jim Morrison of vampires," 'Rubicon' star Arliss Howard as the sinister Governor Truman Burrell, Rutger Hauer as the mysterious Niall Brigant, 'House''s Karolina Wydra and 'Eastenders' star Robert Kazinsky as a series regular and new Fae love interest to Sookie.
Premiering this Sunday, June 16, True Blood' season 6 will take place over 10 episodes, down from the usual 12, largely to accommodate series star Anna Paquin's pregnancy with co-star Stephen Moyer. Take a look at the latest trailer below, and give us your predictions for 'True Blood"s Sunday premiere in the comments!

I will admit, when it comes to products and brands, I am not a very loyal consumer. I love trying new products that hit the market and putting them to the test! Blame it on the beauty addict in me. There are only a few things I have remained loyal to that have never failed me, and these falsie lashes are one of them. Dun dun dun….let's see what they are!
The Demi Wispie style lashes in black never fail me! They give me a natural look while still providing fuller looking lashes when I'm after a little more glam look. These Demi Wispies are by Salon Perfect and I happened to stumble up on this four pack retailing for around $8 at Walmart. They are also available as an individual pair by Ardell lashes. Both are great brands!
This lash set saved me a few trips to the store to replenish my falsies! The last time I wore false lashes were for New Years and they held up seamlessly all night! A little dark Duo glue and I was good to go. I love the way the lash hairs are intertwined to blend into your natural lashes.
If you're a newbie to applying lashes, here's a tutorial I created on how it's done! Salon Perfect and Ardell lashes are both popular brands you can find at Walmart, Target, Walgreens, CVS, and other drugstores. When used and taken off correctly, you can get two to three uses out of just one pair! (Tip: make sure after each use, you gently peel the dried glue off of the lash band).
I'd love to hear about some of your lash favorites! What are some of your go-to falsie brands and styles?

If you read this file _as_is_, just ignore the equal signs on the left. This file is written in the POD format (see [.POD]PERLPOD.POD;1) which is specially designed to be readable as is. =head1 NAME README.vms - Configuring, building, testing, and installing perl on VMS =head1 SYNOPSIS To configure, build, test, and install perl on VMS: @ Configure mms mms test mms install mmk may be used in place of mms in the last three steps. =head1 DESCRIPTION =head2 Important safety tip The build and install procedures have changed significantly from the 5.004 releases! Make sure you read the "Configuring the Perl Build", "Building Perl", and "Installing Perl" sections of this document before you build or install. Also note that, as of Perl version 5.005 and later, an ANSI C compliant compiler is required to build Perl. VAX C is *not* ANSI compliant, as it died a natural death some time before the standard was set. Therefore VAX C will not compile perl 5.005. We are sorry about that. If you are stuck without DEC C (the VAX C license should be good for DEC C, but the media charges might prohibit an upgrade), consider getting Gnu C instead. =head2 Introduction The VMS port of Perl is as functionally complete as any other Perl port (and as complete as the ports on some Unix systems). The Perl binaries provide all the Perl system calls that are either available under VMS or reasonably emulated. There are some incompatibilities in process handling (e.g. the fork/exec model for creating subprocesses doesn't do what you might expect under Unix), mainly because VMS and Unix handle processes and sub-processes very differently. There are still some unimplemented system functions, and of course we could use modules implementing useful VMS system services, so if you'd like to lend a hand we'd love to have you. Join the Perl Porting Team Now! The current sources and build procedures have been tested on a VAX using DEC C, and on an AXP using DEC C. If you run into problems with other compilers, please let us know. There are issues with various versions of DEC C, so if you're not running a relatively modern version, check the "DEC C issues" section later on in this document. =head2 Other required software In addition to VMS and DCL you will need two things: =over 4 =item 1 A C compiler. DEC C or gcc for VMS (AXP or VAX). =item 2 A make tool. DEC's MMS (v2.6 or later), or MadGoat's free MMS analog MMK (available from ftp.madgoat.com/madgoat) both work just fine. Gnu Make might work, but it's been so long since anyone's tested it that we're not sure. MMK is free though, so go ahead and use that. =back =head2 Additional software that is optional You may also want to have on hand: =over 4 =item 1 GUNZIP/GZIP.EXE for VMS A de-compressor for *.gz and *.tgz files available from a number of web/ftp sites. http://www.fsf.org/order/ftp.html ftp://ftp.uu.net/archive/systems/gnu/diffutils*.tar.gz ftp://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/GNU/diffutils*.tar.gz ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/diffutils*.tar.gz http://www.openvms.digital.com/cd/GZIP/ ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/VMS/ =item 2 VMS TAR For reading and writing unix tape archives (*.tar files). Vmstar is also available from a number of web/ftp sites. ftp://ftp.lp.se/vms/ http://www.openvms.digital.com/cd/VMSTAR/ ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/VMS/ =item 3 UNZIP.EXE for VMS A combination decompressor and archive reader/writer for *.zip files. Unzip is available from a number of web/ftp sites. http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/UnZip.html http://www.openvms.digital.com/cd/INFO-ZIP/ ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/VMS/ ftp://ftp.openvms.digital.com/ ftp://ftp.madgoat.com/madgoat/ ftp://ftp.wku.edu/vms/ =item 4 MOST Most is an optional pager that is convenient to use with perldoc (unlike TYPE/PAGE, MOST can go forward and backwards in a document and supports regular expression searching). Most builds with the slang library on VMS. Most and slang are available from: ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/ ftp://ftp.wku.edu/vms/narnia/most.zip =back Please note that UNZIP and GUNZIP are not the same thing (they work with different formats). Many of the useful files from CPAN (the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) are in *.tar.gz format (this includes copies of the source code for perl as well as modules and scripts that you may wish to add later) hence you probably want to have GUNZIP.EXE and VMSTAR.EXE on your VMS machine. If you want to include socket support, you'll need a TCP/IP stack and either DEC C, or socket libraries. See the "Socket Support (optional)" topic for more details. =head1 Configuring the Perl build To configure perl (a necessary first step), issue the command @ Configure from the top of an unpacked perl source directory. You will be asked a series of questions, and the answers to them (along with the capabilities of your C compiler and network stack) will determine how perl is custom built for your machine. If you have multiple C compilers installed, you'll have your choice of which one to use. Various older versions of DEC C had some caveats, so if you're using a version older than 5.2, check the "DEC C Issues" section. If you have any symbols or logical names in your environment that may interfere with the build or regression testing of perl then configure.com will try to warn you about them. If a logical name is causing you trouble but is in an LNM table that you do not have write access to then try defining your own to a harmless equivalence string in a table such that it is resolved before the other (e.g. if TMP is defined in the SYSTEM table then try DEFINE TMP "NL:" or somesuch in your process table) otherwise simply deassign the dangerous logical names. The potentially troublesome logicals and symbols are: TMP "LOGICAL" LIB "LOGICAL" T "LOGICAL" FOO "LOGICAL" EXT "LOGICAL" TEST "SYMBOL" As a handy shortcut, the command: @ Configure "-des" (note the quotation marks and case) will choose reasonable defaults automatically (it takes DEC C over Gnu C, DEC C sockets over SOCKETSHR sockets, and either over no sockets). More help with configure.com is available from: @ Configure "-h" See the "Changing compile-time options (optional)" section below to learn even more details about how to influence the outcome of the important configuration step. If you find yourself reconfiguring and rebuilding then be sure to also follow the advice in the "Cleaning up and starting fresh (optional)" and the checklist of items in the "CAVEATS" sections below. =head2 Changing compile-time options (optional) Most of the user definable features of Perl are enabled or disabled in [.VMS]CONFIG.VMS. There is code in there to Do The Right Thing, but that may end up being the wrong thing for you. Make sure you understand what you are doing since inappropriate changes to CONFIG.VMS can render perl unbuildable. Odds are that there's nothing here to change, unless you're on a version of VMS later than 6.2 and DEC C later than 5.6. Even if you are, the correct values will still be chosen, most likely. Poking around here should be unnecessary. The one exception is the various *DIR install locations. Changing those requires changes in genconfig.pl as well. Be really careful if you need to change these, as they can cause some fairly subtle problems. =head2 Socket Support (optional) Perl includes a number of functions for IP sockets, which are available if you choose to compile Perl with socket support. Since IP networking is an optional addition to VMS, there are several different IP stacks available. How well integrated they are into the system depends on the stack, your version of VMS, and the version of your C compiler. The most portable solution uses the SOCKETSHR library. In combination with either UCX or NetLib, this supports all the major TCP stacks (Multinet, Pathways, TCPWare, UCX, and CMU) on all versions of VMS Perl runs on, with all the compilers on both VAX and Alpha. The socket interface is also consistent across versions of VMS and C compilers. It has a problem with UDP sockets when used with Multinet, though, so you should be aware of that. The other solution available is to use the socket routines built into DEC C. Which routines are available depend on the version of VMS you're running, and require proper UCX emulation by your TCP/IP vendor. Relatively current versions of Multinet, TCPWare, Pathway, and UCX all provide the required libraries--check your manuals or release notes to see if your version is new enough. =head1 Building Perl The configuration script will print out, at the very end, the MMS or MMK command you need to compile perl. Issue it (exactly as printed) to start the build. Once you issue your MMS or MMK command, sit back and wait. Perl should compile and link without a problem. If a problem does occur check the "CAVEATS" section of this document. If that does not help send some mail to the VMSPERL mailing list. Instructions are in the "Mailing Lists" section of this document. =head1 Testing Perl Once Perl has built cleanly you need to test it to make sure things work. This step is very important since there are always things that can go wrong somehow and yield a dysfunctional Perl for you. Testing is very easy, though, as there's a full test suite in the perl distribution. To run the tests, enter the *exact* MMS line you used to compile Perl and add the word "test" to the end, like this: If the compile command was: MMS then the test command ought to be: MMS test MMS (or MMK) will run all the tests. This may take some time, as there are a lot of tests. If any tests fail, there will be a note made on-screen. At the end of all the tests, a summary of the tests, the number passed and failed, and the time taken will be displayed. If any tests fail, it means something is wrong with Perl. If the test suite hangs (some tests can take upwards of two or three minutes, or more if you're on an especially slow machine, depending on your machine speed, so don't be hasty), then the test *after* the last one displayed failed. Don't install Perl unless you're confident that you're OK. Regardless of how confident you are, make a bug report to the VMSPerl mailing list. If one or more tests fail, you can get more information on the failure by issuing this command sequence: @ [.VMS]TEST .typ "" "-v" [.subdir]test.T where ".typ" is the file type of the Perl images you just built (if you didn't do anything special, use .EXE), and "[.subdir]test.T" is the test that failed. For example, with a normal Perl build, if the test indicated that [.op]time failed, then you'd do this: @ [.VMS]TEST .EXE "" "-v" [.OP]TIME.T When you send in a bug report for failed tests, please include the output from this command, which is run from the main source directory: MCR []MINIPERL "-V" Note that -"V" really is a capital V in double quotes. This will dump out a couple of screens worth of configuration information, and can help us diagnose the problem. If (and only if) that did not work then try enclosing the output of: MMS printconfig If (and only if) that did not work then try enclosing the output of: @ [.vms]myconfig You may also be asked to provide your C compiler version ("CC/VERSION NL:" with DEC C, "gcc --version" with GNU CC). To obtain the version of MMS or MMK you are running try "MMS/ident" or "MMK /ident". The GNU make version can be identified with "make --version". =head2 Cleaning up and starting fresh (optional) If you need to recompile from scratch, you have to make sure you clean up first. There is a procedure to do it--enter the *exact* MMS line you used to compile and add "realclean" at the end, like this: if the compile command was: MMS then the cleanup command ought to be: MMS realclean If you do not do this things may behave erratically during the subsequent rebuild attempt. They might not, too, so it is best to be sure and do it. =head1 Installing Perl There are several steps you need to take to get Perl installed and running. =over 4 =item 1 Check your default file protections with SHOW PROTECTION /DEFAULT and adjust if necessary with SET PROTECTION=(code)/DEFAULT. =item 2 Create a directory somewhere and either run @perl_setup or define the concealed logical PERL_ROOT to point to it by hand. For example, CREATE/DIRECTORY dka200:[perl] @PERL_SETUP SHOW LOGICAL PERL_ROOT or, CREATE/DIRECTORY dka200:[perl] DEFINE/TRANS=(CONC,TERM) PERL_ROOT dka200:[perl.] =item 3 Run the install script via: MMS install or MMK install If for some reason it complains about target INSTALL being up to date, throw a /FORCE switch on the MMS or MMK command. =back The DCL script PERL_SETUP.COM that is written by CONFIGURE.COM will help you with the definition of PERL_ROOT, PERLSHR and the PERL Foreign symbol. Take a look at PERL_SETUP.COM and modify it if you want to. Then copy PERL_SETUP.COM to a place accessible to your perl users. For example: COPY PERL_SETUP.COM SYS$LIBRARY: If you want to have everyone on the system have access to perl then add a line that reads $ @sys$library:perl_setup to SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM. Two alternatives to the foreign symbol would be to install PERL into DCLTABLES.EXE (Check out the section "Installing Perl into DCLTABLES (optional)" for more information), or put the image in a directory that's in your DCL$PATH (if you're using VMS V6.2 or higher). An alternative to having PERL_SETUP.COM define the PERLSHR logical name is to simply copy it into the system shareable library directory with: copy perl_root:[000000]perlshr.exe sys$share: See also the "INSTALLing images (optional)" section. =head2 Installing Perl into DCLTABLES (optional) Execute the following command file to define PERL as a DCL command. You'll need CMKRNL privilege to install the new dcltables.exe. $ create perl.cld ! ! modify to reflect location of your perl.exe ! define verb perl image perl_root:[000000]perl.exe cliflags (foreign) $! $ set command perl /table=sys$common:[syslib]dcltables.exe - /output=sys$common:[syslib]dcltables.exe $ install replace sys$common:[syslib]dcltables.exe $ exit =head2 INSTALLing images (optional) On systems that are using perl quite a bit, and particularly those with minimal RAM, you can boost the performance of perl by INSTALLing it as a known image. PERLSHR.EXE is typically larger than 2000 blocks and that is a reasonably large amount of IO to load each time perl is invoked. INSTALL ADD PERLSHR/SHARE INSTALL ADD PERL/HEADER should be enough for PERLSHR.EXE (/share implies /header and /open), while /HEADER should do for PERL.EXE (perl.exe is not a shared image). If your code 'use's modules, check to see if there is a shareable image for them, too. In the base perl build, POSIX, IO, Fcntl, Opcode, SDBM_File, DCLsym, and Stdio all have shared images that can be installed /SHARE. How much of a win depends on your memory situation, but if you are firing off perl with any regularity (like more than once every 20 seconds or so) it is probably beneficial to INSTALL at least portions of perl. While there is code in perl to remove privileges as it runs you are advised to NOT INSTALL PERL.EXE with PRIVs! =head1 Reporting Bugs If you come across what you think might be a bug in Perl, please report it. There's a script in PERL_ROOT:[UTILS], perlbug, that walks you through the process of creating a bug report. This script includes details of your installation, and is very handy. Completed bug reports should go to firstname.lastname@example.com. =head1 CAVEATS Probably the single biggest gotcha in compiling Perl is giving the wrong switches to MMS/MMK when you build. Use *exactly* what the configure.com script prints! The next big gotcha is directory depth. Perl can create directories four, five, or even six levels deep during the build, so you don't have to be too deep to start to hit the RMS 8 level limit (for versions of VMS prior to V7.2 and even with V7.2 on the VAX). It is best to do DEFINE/TRANS=(CONC,TERM) PERLSRC "disk:[dir.dir.dir.perldir.]" SET DEFAULT PERLSRC:[000000] before building in cases where you have to unpack the distribution so deep (note the trailing period in the definition of PERLSRC). Perl modules from CPAN can be just as bad (or worse), so watch out for them, too. Perl's configuration script will warn if it thinks you are too deep (at least on a VAX or on Alpha versions of VMS prior to 7.2). But MakeMaker will not warn you if you start out building a module too deep in a directory. Be sure that the process that you use to build perl has a PGFLQ greater than 100000. Be sure to have a correct local time zone to UTC offset defined (in seconds) in the logical name SYS$TIMEZONE_DIFFERENTIAL before running the regression test suite. The SYS$MANAGER:UTC$CONFIGURE_TDF.COM procedure will help you set that logical for your system but may require system privileges. For example, a location 5 hours west of UTC (such as the US East coast while not on daylight savings time) would have: DEFINE SYS$TIMEZONE_DIFFERENTIAL "-18000" A final thing that causes trouble is leftover pieces from a failed build. If things go wrong make sure you do a "(MMK|MMS|make) realclean" before you rebuild. =head2 DEC C issues Note to DEC C users: Some early versions (pre-5.2, some pre-4. If you're DEC C 5.x or higher, with current patches if any, you're fine) of the DECCRTL contained a few bugs which affect Perl performance: =over 4 =item - pipes Newlines are lost on I/O through pipes, causing lines to run together. This shows up as RMS RTB errors when reading from a pipe. You can work around this by having one process write data to a file, and then having the other read the file, instead of the pipe. This is fixed in version 4 of DEC C. =item - modf() The modf() routine returns a non-integral value for some values above INT_MAX; the Perl "int" operator will return a non-integral value in these cases. This is fixed in version 4 of DEC C. =item - ALPACRT ECO On the AXP, if SYSNAM privilege is enabled, the CRTL chdir() routine changes the process default device and directory permanently, even though the call specified that the change should not persist after Perl exited. This is fixed by DEC CSC patch ALPACRT04_061 or later. See also: http://ftp.service.digital.com/patches/.new/openvms.html =back Please note that in later versions "DEC C" may also be known as "Compaq C". =head2 GNU issues It has been a while since the GNU utilities such as GCC or GNU make were used to build perl on VMS. Hence they may require a great deal of source code modification to work again. http://slacvx.slac.stanford.edu/HELP/GCC http://www.progis.de/ http://vms.gnu.org/ http://www.lp.se/products/gnu.html =head1 Mailing Lists There are several mailing lists available to the Perl porter. For VMS specific issues (including both Perl questions and installation problems) there is the VMSPERL mailing list. It is usually a low-volume (10-12 messages a week) mailing list. The subscription address is firstname.lastname@example.com. Send a mail message with just the words SUBSCRIBE VMSPERL in the body of the message. The VMSPERL mailing list address is firstname.lastname@example.com. Any mail sent there gets echoed to all subscribers of the list. There is a searchable archive of the list on the web at: http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/vmsperl/ To unsubscribe from VMSPERL send the message UNSUBSCRIBE VMSPERL to email@example.com. Be sure to do so from the subscribed account that you are canceling. =head2 Web sites Vmsperl pages on the web include: http://www.sidhe.org/vmsperl/index.html http://duphy4.physics.drexel.edu/pub/cgi_info.htmlx http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/vmsperl/ http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/VMS/ http://nucwww.chem.sunysb.edu/htbin/software_list.cgi http://www.best.com/~pvhp/vms/ http://bkfug.kfunigraz.ac.at/~binder/perl.html =head1 SEE ALSO Perl information for users and programmers about the port of perl to VMS is available from the [.VMS]PERLVMS.POD file that gets installed as L
. For administrators the perlvms document also includes a detailed discussion of extending vmsperl with CPAN modules after Perl has been installed. =head1 AUTHORS Last revised 25-February-2000 by Peter Prymmer email@example.com. Revised 27-October-1999 by Craig Berry email@example.com. Revised 01-March-1999 by Dan Sugalski email@example.com. Originally by Charles Bailey email@example.com. =head1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A real big thanks needs to go to Charles Bailey email@example.com, who is ultimately responsible for Perl 5.004 running on VMS. Without him, nothing the rest of us have done would be at all important. There are, of course, far too many people involved in the porting and testing of Perl to mention everyone who deserves it, so please forgive us if we've missed someone. That said, special thanks are due to the following: Tim Adye firstname.lastname@example.com for the VMS emulations of getpw*() David Denholm email@example.com for extensive testing and provision of pipe and SocketShr code, Mark Pizzolato email@example.com for the getredirection() code Rich Salz firstname.lastname@example.com for readdir() and related routines Peter Prymmer email@example.com for extensive testing, as well as development work on configuration and documentation for VMS Perl, Dan Sugalski firstname.lastname@example.com for extensive contributions to recent version support, development of VMS-specific extensions, and dissemination of information about VMS Perl, the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory and the Laboratory of Nuclear Studies at Cornell University for the opportunity to test and develop for the AXP, John Hasstedt firstname.lastname@example.com for VAX VMS V7.2 support and to the entire VMSperl group for useful advice and suggestions. In addition the perl5-porters deserve credit for their creativity and willingness to work with the VMS newcomers. Finally, the greatest debt of gratitude is due to Larry Wall firstname.lastname@example.com, for having the ideas which have made our sleepless nights possible. Thanks, The VMSperl group =cut

LAS VEGAS >> It was a 16-second lesson on who is the best women's fighter, followed by a 25-minute marathon to show that the middleweight champion is who everyone thought he was.
At UFC 175 on Saturday night at Mandalay Bay Events Center, Ronda Rousey proved yet again she is the baddest female on the planet and the biggest star in the UFC after taking to Alexis Davis like a hot knife through butter.
In 16 seconds, Rousey exchanged blows with Davis before landing an overhand right, a knee to the body and taking the Canadian challenger on a free ride via a judo throw over her left hip. Rousey landed on Davis with Davis' arms isolated, allowing Rousey to pummel her with nine rights before the fight was halted.
Anyone else remember when Rousey was criticized for her striking and armbars were her only arsenal?
And credit to Rousey coach Edmond Tarverdyan, who told us last month: "For this camp, she's dropping people with head shots, so watch out for that. That's gonna happen. I believe that."
Cool as a cucumber last night, Tarverdyan — who also correctly predicted a body shot would fell Sara McMann at UFC 170 in February — walked past press row after the win, shook our hand and said, "I called it."
Rousey was awarded one of two Performance of the Night bonuses, which means an extra $50,000 in her pocket.
What's more, the crowd of 10,008, which wasn't totally behind Rousey before the fight, gave her the loudest post-fight cheers we've heard for her since her UFC debut victory over Liz Carmouche at UFC 157 at Honda Center in Anaheim in February 2013.
And how about that main event? Chris Weidman shook off any notion of fluke victories over Anderson Silva with an impressive, five-round unanimous-decision dismantling of Lyoto Machida.
Weidman stuck to his game plan, stalking Machida and landing leg kicks, big rights and takedowns. Machida appeared to realize he was in a hole in the fourth round — the only one he won on our card — which was one of the most entertaining of the year.
Machida's left found Weidman's sturdy chin several times, including a big hook that staggered the champ as the round ended.
With two cuts and significant bruising, Machida looked much worse after the fight, but no one has ever questioned his heart.
And no one can question Weidman's credentials now. Eleven wins without a loss and getting better each time.
They're both $50,000 richer after they were rightly awarded Fight of the Night, but it was Weidman walking away with the gold.
Vitor Belfort was mentioned during the post-fight press conference last night as a possible next opponent, but Belfort "has some issues to work out," according to UFC president Dana White.
Specifically, Belfort has admitted to failing a drug test in February and the Nevada Athletic Commission has banned the use of testosterone replacement therapy, for which Belfort had an exemption. Belfort has yet to have a hearing with the NAC, so that's one of the biggest issues.
Nevertheless, Belfort pleaded his case on Instagram last night: "Now I want what I deserve. MY TITLE SHOT!!! Don't run away!! No excuses!!"
More thoughts on last night…
What was missing >> While UFC 175 was largely considered a success, it definitely could have used a bigger shot in the arm.
Nothing against Weidman, Machida or Davis, but none of them was setting the world on fire while promoting this card. And that's not a knock on them. They all have laid-back personalities. And while Weidman-Machida had a lot of fight fans excited, neither of the main-event bouts was a heated rivalry, so most of the marketing burden fell on Rousey.
What would have helped? How about Chael Sonnen vs. Wanderlei Silva? Their hatred for each other grew after their brawl and contentious encounters while filming "The Ultimate Fighter" in Brazil.
Unfortunately, both failed drug tests leading up to UFC 175, so their fight was canceled. Had that fight gone on, not only would we probably have seen major fireworks leading up to Saturday night, but the crowd would have been electric for that battle.
Struve is OK >> It was quite a shock on press row during the Marcus Brimage-Russell Doane fight when news broke that heavyweight Stefan Struve had blacked out while warming for his fight against Matt Mitrione.
The news was especially concerning since in August the 7-footer was diagnosed with a leaking aortic valve as well as an enlarged heart.
Doctors, however, chalked it up to a panic attack and, considering Struve's recent medical issues, took no risks and called off the fight.
Struve told MMAFighting.com it was a matter of anxiety and discomfort as the long layoff, heart problems and recent death of his father after a long battle with cancer all caught up with him.
The toe knows >> Uriah Hall, with all the physical skills one could want but his mind as his biggest enemy, once had his status as a fighter challenged by White. Hall proved himself and then some last night.
After a tough first round against Thiago Santos, cameras caught an image of Hall's mangled second toe on his right foot.
Not only was it broken, but as the fight progressed and Hall continued to throw kicks with his right foot, the bone began to break through the skin.
Asked about throwing kicks with his bad foot, Hall said: "I would feel my bone shift in and out of my skin."
Hall posted a photo of the X-ray on his Sqor.com account. We'll let you try Google for images of the toe itself, but it's not for the squeamish.
Starting with a bang >> Huge win for Kevin Casey in the first fight of the night. A black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, the Hawthorne resident has strung together three straight first-round TKO victories.
Casey once looked like a middleweight who had blown his chance in the UFC after struggling during Season 17 of "The Ultimate Fighter." Biggest difference? Casey now has a better handle in his battle with the scale. Severe weight cuts during the UFC reality show affected his kidneys and stamina. Casey told us before his fight at RFA 15 last month that his weight cut is more of a diet now.
A bold Font >> People on Twitter were having fun coming up with nicknames for Rob Font last night, so pardon the pun.
Not only did the 27-year-old from Massachusetts win his 10th straight fight in his UFC debut by knocking out George Roop in the first round, he picked up the other $50,000 bonus for Performance of the Night.
Not bad for a guy who was delivering pizzas six years ago to make ends meet.

Yes, this is the common case, but you must have noted that when many people ask 'do you know/do computers?' they really mean 'do you know how to use X/Y/Z platform?' Most non-technical people (and a large number of tech as well, sadly) do not distinguish between 'machine theory' in the larger sense and 'being able to type/save/load files' in the near-term applied sense. This has led me to many conversations like this: 'So, Nando, you do computers?' 'No, not really.........' Because most people assume that 'do computers' means Windows or 'selling PCs' or 'Excel and Word.' If you tell them you think about distributed knowledge representation, or how to parcel computations, or about the intrinsic limits of digital vs. analog representation, you get these great stares..... > > >> Again, this may generally be the case, but if one has the fortune of >> being >> at a great school, then it's time to build opportunities.

Or even Science Fairs (which are out of fashion, these days). Well, as I have noted to exhaustion, I consider our family to be *very* lucky to be associated with a high school that places more emphasis on its math team than on its cheerleading team.

By winning the North Coast Section Division III championship this year, the El Cerrito High School football team put the Tri-Counties Athletic League Rock Division on the map. What St. Mary's and Salesian did sent it into another stratosphere.
El Cerrito, St. Mary's and Salesian, all teams in the newly formed TCAL Rock Division, all won NCS titles and a fourth Rock Division team, Valley Christian of Dublin, fell to Salesian in the Division 5 championship game.
"In the history of the NCS, I'm not sure that's ever happened," Salesian coach Chad Nightingale said. "It was like a perfect storm. To get all the teams into the playoffs that we did, and then to perform as well as we did, well that's pretty exciting for our league."
The Panthers (10-4) and the Pride (8-5) were the least likely teams from the Rock Division to play in an NCS championship. Both teams were seeded fifth in their respective divisions, Salesian in the Division V playoffs and St. Mary's in the Division IV.
The young Panthers from Berkeley probably had the toughest journey to a final. Their four losses were to Division II champion Miramonte, Division III winner El Cerrito, Salesian and Division V runner-up Valley Christian.
"We didn't think it was improbable, we knew we had a good team," St. Mary's coach Keith Minor said. "It was just a matter of us finding our way. Once we hit our stride, we knew we had a great chance to do well."
The path through the playoffs included wins over Fort Bragg (48-13), St. Helena (24-7), an upset of top seed San Marin (35-29) and a clinching 49-21 victory over Fortuna Saturday, Dec. 14 at Humboldt State University.
The title game was originally scheduled for the previous week but due to inclement weather and unsafe travel conditions, the game was switched to the following week.
"We've played teams up there so we knew how we would travel, we just didn't plan for the weather," Minor said.
It was the first league title for St. Mary's and El Cerrito, two of the East Bay's finest football programs in the past few decades with legendary coaches and a long list of players who have gone to the next level and beyond.
"There is such tradition at these schools," Minor said. "I think the perception of our league will change based on the performance of our teams this year. When you start putting our teams together, good things are going to happen."
Against Fortuna in the championship game, the senior trio of quarterback Ian Bonde, receiver Liam Godfrey and running back Lorenzo Logwood carried the offensive workload. The Panthers also forced four turnovers and held Fortuna to just seven points after the first quarter.
"This was a great accomplishment for St. Mary's," Nightingale said.
El Cerrito (12-3) was the cream of the Rock Division crop this season with a handful of Division I prospects, led by UCLA-bound Adarius Pickett.
Pickett, the son of 1980s El Cerrito standout Antoine Pickett, was the main cog for the Gauchos, who won back to back TCAL Rock Division titles.
They avenged an earlier loss to Campolindo, a 49-34 shellacking in the Division III semifinals and then turned back top seed Marin Catholic, 54-38 Dec. 6 at Burrell Field in San Leandro to claim the NCS banner, the school's first.
"El Cerrito really added credibility to our league," Nightingale said. "Top to bottom our league was tough."
Against Marin Catholic in the title game, Pickett rushed for a game-high 255 yards and four touchdowns as El Cerrito avenged a loss to Marin Catholic in last year's NCS title game. The Gauchos led 41-3 at one point of the game before the Wildcats rallied in the second half.
The Gauchos were also helped by the twin tandem of Keilan and Keith Benjamin, all league quarterback and wide receiver. The duo connected for three touchdowns and Arizona State-bound Jalen Harvey scooped up a fumble and raced 36 yards for another score.
El Cerrito's season ended Dec. 14 in a 42-7 loss to Sacred Heart Prep of Atherton in the California Interscholastic Federation Division III Northern California regional championship at De Anza High School.
Salesian defeated No. 2 seed Valley Christian 19-13 Nov. 30 to win its fourth NCS title.
Senior running back De'Angelo Hernandez rushed for 207 yards and two second-half touchdowns and avenged an earlier 21-12 loss to Valley Christian Nov. 9 during the regular season.
Salesian had a good bit of fortune to make the playoffs. An earlier season forfeit allowed the Pride into the playoffs, Nightingale said.
"And then we won all three playoffs games on the road," the coach said.
Salesian, a school of 400 students located in Richmond, defeated St. Vincent de Paul 42-21, Middletown 21-13 before knocked off Valley Christian at Chabot College in Hayward in the Division 5 finale.
