Last Friday, March 1, the stu-dent
body participated in a refer-endum
on a Student Senate amend-ment
regarding honor point ratio
qualifications for office. With less
than 10% of Bethel's students
exercising their right to vote, the
amendment carried by an easy 64-
28 margin, according to Tim Gib-son,
chairman of the election board.
Primarily, the amendment
deals with qualifications for im-portant
senate and class execu-tive
officers as well as the sen-ate
body itself. Modifications in
the constitution include elimi-nating
the requirement that a
candidate for an executive office

Mary Ritten, a senior, took first
place in the category of poetry
with her presentation of "Snake"
and Frost's "Mending Wall." An-other
Bethelite, Jill Graham, took
second in the same category with a

Night," by Thompson.
Steve Nelson also took a second
in the rhetorical criticism using a
critical analysis of one of Eisen-hower's
speeches by Parish to sup-plement
his own.
Rhetorical criticism is judged by
the critic chosen to represent a
viewpoint, the appropriateness of
the speech, its effect on the audi-ence,
and by the critical analysis
of the individual speaker; while
poetry is judged by the selection
of material, its aptness to the abili-ty
of its speaker, its style and de-livery,
and by the impact of the
mood created.

Current Ecumenical Issue
Movements Toward Church Unity
Spur Evangelical to Define Position . Suggests New Alliances
The excesses of radical ecumenism are obvious. The cur-rent
attempts to predicate unity on the shakey foundations
of sentiment and subjectivity have disregarded the essential
truths of historical Christianity.
A united church must possess a common belief and a
united Christian church must share an essential unity on the
distinctive truths of the Christian faith. Unity at all costs is
neither sane nor workable.
The ecumenical movement has had a significant impact
on the evangelical community. Evangelicals have been forced
to define their position and to assess the present and future
effectiveness of their ministry. The current ecumenical move-ment
has also forced the evangelical community into dialogue
with other schools of thought and, on many occassions, ecumen-ism
has promoted new alliances among evangelical groups.
More significant, however, is that the ecumenical trend
is indicative of many current social phenomena such as tech-nological
complexity, secularization, and urbanization. Many
church leaders are recognizing that the church must grow
with society if it is to offer an effective Christian ministry.
As modern man has witnessed the death of the small town
and the small business and the current struggle of the small
college, perhaps he is to witness the death of the small de-nomination.
Ecumenism as it affects the evangelical is a natural and
inevitable reaction to the fragmentary hyperfundamentalism
of the early part of this country. The "new Evangelicals" are
realizing that most of this fragmentation was based on in-significant
doctrinal issues or dubious distinctions about "the
last times."
The penetrating questions of the ecumenist are knocking
at the front door of the Baptist Conference. Specifically, the
Conference has a sound basis, both doctrinally and pragma-tically,
for unity with many other evangelical groups. The
confessional standards of the Conference are similar if not
identical to those of the Evangelical Free Church and the
North American Baptist Convention.
Recognizing the increasing difficulty the Conference is
having supporting Bethel College and Bethel Seminary in
addition to its other commitments, it seems imperative that
we give serious consideration to a merger with a similar
evangelical group. Rather than competing with one another
and duplicating services, it seems sensible that we should
Such a merger would enable the newly formed group to
support a quality liberal arts college geared to the demands
of modern education and a seminary that would fill local pul-pits
with trained, competent ministers. This would also alle-viate
overall administrative costs since both groups would now
be adniinistered from one office.
At the grass roots level this would affect no radical
change. Individual churches would function as always, but
with a stronger basis for cooperation with each other in corn-muity
Despite the practical benefits of such a plan, any reor-ganization
faces opposition from the establishment. The old
Swedish traditions and the current organizational patterns
have become a static force resistant to change.
Ultimately the question involves a choice between the ef-fective
work of the Church or the established cultural pat-terns.
If our Christian commitment is what it claims to be,
it seems that the former alternative would be unquestioned.
The amendment which removes academic qualifications
from office holding in student organizations is antithetical to
the purposes of a college as well as those of student govern-ment.
Not only the amendment itself, but the unpublicized
way in which it gained approval, merits criticism.
According to the constitution of the Bethel College
Student Association, a two-thirds vote in the senate is nec-essary
to propose an amendment to the student body for
adoption. The senate, with 21 seats, voted unanimously, 11-0,
in favor of the, change. (Eleven represents a minimal quorum.)
The rationale of those favoring the amendment is weak.
Discussion in the senate, conversation with various senators,
and some of the remarks made by supporters of the amend-ment
during balloting Friday point to the following reasons:
1) Grades do not provide a true picture of a candidate's quali-fications;
2) Many of those interested or participating in stu-dent
government are presently walking a tightrope regarding
grade qualifications; 3) The change really makes no difference
as upperclassmen usually need a 2.0 to remain in school. There
may be other reasons as well; if so, there are a number of
students who would like to hear them.
Let us examine the above reasons, beginning with the
last one. If the change really makes "no difference" why even
suggest the amendment in the first place? Apparently the
change makes a difference to someone.
Secondly, the honor point ratio of those holding office or
interested in office has questionable bearing on the standard
of academic qualifications for office. It is foolish and danger
ous to mistake "what is" as the standard for "what ought to
The other argument supporting the amendment chal-lenges
the validity of grades as a criterion for office holding.
Few would disagree with the contention that grades repre-
The late Archbishop William
Temple described the church unity
movement as the twentieth cen-tury's
most significant develop-ment.
The whole spectrum of
Christian thought reflects this
trend, from the liberal World
Council of Churches to the very
conservative American Council of
Christian Churches. Indeed many
church leaders have called this
"the ecumenical age."
The ecumenical movement as
a defined entity has crystallized
in the National Council and the
World Council of Churches. As
a result of their ecumenicity,
these groups have achieved a
spectacular growth and have
done much to spread the ecu-menical
fervor to other groups.
The thrust of these groups is
the intention to breakdown all de-nominational
barriers with t h e
hope of establishing a truly uni-

sent somewhat arbitrary distinctions, and that they are not
an infallible means of evaluating students.
Yet, this grants no excuse for excluding academic con-siderations
from office holding. The Student Association con-stitution
did not require a 3.0 or 4.0 honor point ratio from,
candidates, but only a 2.0 (required for graduation) except
for 2.5 for executive offices.
This qualification does not call for academic excellence
by any stretch of the imagination. , It only establishes aca-demic
competence as a qualification for, office. This seems
neither strange nor unfair.
Bethel College is an educational institution, and the pri,
mary function of such an institution should center on educa-tion.
Those who represent and formulate decisions affecting
the student body should show evidence of satisfactory progres s,
in the academic realm.
Formidable problems could result from adoption of the
amendment. Since there are no academic restrictions for of-fice,
even students on probation are eligible. There is no
guarantee that a student elected to office will not be forced
to leave school because of scholastic problems.
It is scarcely unreasonable to suggest that anyone pre-viously
barred from office by academic considerations would
need to involve himself in studies rather than student govern,
ment. A student already struggling to keep his head above
water scholastically would have little chance of succeeding if
he were to add the responsibility of an office—particularly an
executice position—to his load.
To conscientiously meet the demands of a senate or ex-ecutive
office would spell academic suicide for an individual
experiencing such difficulty without additional responsibilities.

editor of the ecumenical
weekly The Christian Century, ,
counsels ministers in a procedure
that would actually promote "the
ultimate death and transfiguration"
of these forms while patiently "liv-ing

faithful to their disciplines."
The ecumenical spirit, how-ever,
is not a phenomenon re-stricted
to the liberal wing of
Christendom. To a lesser extent,
conservative groups reflect many
of the same trends.

II and such evangelical organiza,.

H. Henry, editor of CHRISTIAN-ITY
TODAY, has defined what
he considers to be the "Princi-ples
of Christian Unity," ground-ed
in the conviction that true
ecumenism strives for "oneness
among like-minded believers."
In response to the liberals, Henry
comments that "The existence of
the one Church (the universal spin
itual church) as churches (specific
bodies of believers), extended over
time and space, is not per se a
contradiction of the Church's es-sential
unity." He also states that
denominational "differences have
not destroyed the inner unity of
Christians in Jesus Christ but have
impaired the reflection of that un-ity
in the visible churches."
Henry urges that "churches
whose separate existence i s
grounded in basic thelogical dif-ferences
of faith and order
should seek to resolve these dif-ferences."
Thus to the liberal
movement Henry is suggesting
that true doctrinal differences
must be resolved before any at-tempt
at ecclesiastical unity is
With respect to the fragmentary
forms of Fundamentalism, Henry
comments that "by the fragmen-tary
denominational reflection of
their unity in Jesus Christ, by their
rivalry on the mission fields at
home and abroad, by sometimes
denying to others the liberty of
conviction they claim for them,
selves, churches give imperfect wit-ness
to the Gospel and create ob-stacles
to the fulfillment of the
mission of the Church."
As an indictment of many ul-traconservative
groups, Henry
further comments that "Church-es
whose existence derives only
from sociological, racial, or cul-tural
differences ought not to
remain separate and divided.
They should seek, wherever pos-sible,
union with other churches
of like convictions."
The past strides of ecumenism
are clear, but the future remains
tenuous. Henry comments that the
future does not augur hopefully
for the movement. "It is being
carried along by the ecclesiastical
establishment. History shows that
the establishment has never ori-ginated
any great spiritual move-ment;

Collins Resigns
To the Editor:
On November 21, 1967, I met
with President Lundquist and
handed him my letter of resigna-tion
from the faculty of Bethel
College. Since this action could
easily be misinterpreted, I would
like to follow Dr. Moberg's exam-ple
by briefly stating some of the
reasons which have lead to this
First, I did not decide to leave
because of a belief that Bethel is
a lost cause. While I have never
been an enthusiastic believer in
the Christian college, I am con-vinced
that there is a future for
this institution. In my opinion,
Bethel is one of the best—if not
the best--of the Christian colleges
in the country. We have problems,
but so does every other school
and I do not feel that I am leaving
a sinking ship.
Secondly, I am not leaving be-cause
of a loss of confidence in the
Administration, the Board of Edu-cation,
or the Baptist General Con-ference.
Like most faculty mem-bers,
I often disagree with the
policies and decisions of these lea-ders,
but such disagreements are
not in themselves strong enough to
lead to my resignation. When I
indicated my intention to leave,
the President made several sincere
attempts to keep me here and I
am grateful for his consideration,
during these past several weeks.
Thirdly, I am not leaving be-cause
of the current difficulties
in finding a new academic dean.
My resignation was submitted prior
to much of the recent controversy
and in no way reflects a feeling
for or against any potential can-didate
for dean.
My decision to leave Bethel is
based instead on two positive
facts. First, I believe this is the
Lord's leading and secondly, I
have been attracted by a more de-sirable
position elsewhere.
In my opinion, God leads people
who want to be in submission to
His will. He directs in a number
of ways. I came to Bethel because
I believe the Lord led me here.
I have stayed for the same rea-son
and I am now leaving because,
after much prayer and delibera-tion,
my wife and I are convinced
that this is His plan for our lives
at present.
I have been grateful for my
Iowa City, Ia.—(I.P.)—Universi-ty
of Iowa President Howard IL
Bowen recently declared that he
is not in sympathy with what he
described as a trend toward turn-ing
university campuses into cent
ters of broad political action.
"It is quite evident that some
political leaders are eyeing the
campus as a possible base of sup-port,
and equally evident that some
students and professors would like
to carry the university into the
political arena," he said.
But, said the U of I presi-den,
a university finds its influ-ence
through the power of ideas,
not through overt political ac-tion.
"The university as a cor-porate
body is neither Hawk
nor Dove, Democrat nor Repub-lican,
socialist nor capitalist,
segregationist nor integrationist.
It is not a parliament or a politi-cal
party or a pressure group."
He warned that a unversity
might lose its intellectual power,
four years at Bethel. This has been
my first job and I believe that it
has provided opportunities which
as a beginning faculty member I
could not have had elsewhere. As
is true of any small college, how-ever,
faculty members here must
teach a variety of courses.
While I have enjoyed this, I have
felt increasing frustration because
of an inability to specialize in one
area and because it has been dif-ficult
for me to find time for
writing. The school to which I am
going will provide opportunity to
focus my attention on one area
of interest and a lighter teaching
load will permit time for writing.
In September I will be taking a
position as Professor of Pastoral
Phychology and Director of Clini-cal
Training at The Conwell School
of Theology in Philadelphia. With
the hiring of ten new faculty mem-bers
this interdenominational in-stitution
is taking on a conserva-tive,
evangelical perspective. I am
excited about my new role of de-veloping
a program for the further
training of both future and pres-ent
church leaders.
As we leave, my wife and I want
to express our appreciation for our
contacts with so many of the stu-dents,
my colleagues on the facul-ty,
and the staff. It has been good
to be part of the Bethel communi-tY-Gary

Is Bethel Dead?
To the Editor:
Another distinguished member
of the faculty has felt the call of
God to leave Bethel and go to an ,
other place of higher education
to proclaim God's truths. What
are we who are left behind to do?
Who will be our leader now? Who
will be our teacher? Who will be
our friend? Who will show use the
Because our educators feel led
to teach elsewhere are we to cry
that God has "taken His hand
away from Bethel?" Are we to
proclaim that "Bethel is Dead"
like those who shout that our God
"is Dead?" Does God wish for us,
His children, to join these groups?
I think not! Yet, what are we as
students doing? There always have
been prophets of doom, alarmists,
and opportunists. There are today.
And there will be until the Lord
shall return to claim His own.
What does God desire of us in
its integrity and its credibility if
the ability to function with ob-jectivity
and detachment were un-dermined
through political activ-ity.
"I admit that the distinctions
between the university as a cor-porate
entity, its professors and
students and searchers for the
truth, and its professors and
students as citizens are subtle
and difficult to apply in prac-tice,"
he continued, "yet it is
only as the universtiy is meticu-lous
in its regard for these dis-tinctions
that it will retain its
real power, which is a source
of ideas."
A university has its own ethics
to defend, President Bowen said,
and it is an ethic of freedom of
thought and speech, the right to
be heard, the obligation to seek
and report the truth regardless
of consequences, the evaluation of
persons solely on the basis of
Viet Nam and War
To the Editor:
Dear Gad,
It's about Viet Nam.
Professors of international law
have said the war is illegal.
Poiticians, have said it is sui-cide.
Clergy of all faiths, in great
numbers, have said it is immoral.
Yet we go on killing, sometimes
in a ratio of ten civilians for each
Viet Cong.
When a group of Bethel students
gathered to protest this war, an-other
group of Bethel students ga-thered
to mock the protesters:

judgment of scholarly and artis-tic
work by peers, the avoidance.
of plagarism and the promotion
of high standards in intellectual
and aesthetic matters.
"It is the simple fact of life
that the university, if it is to
be loyal to its mission, will re-ceive
criticism," President Bow-en
said. He explained that there
is criticism because universi-ties
are too "theoretical" and do
not serve immediate purposes as
represented by the Pentagon,
private business, and local gov-ernment;
but at the same time
others charge that universities
have "sold out" to the "estab-lishment."
Meanwhile he said, the univer-sity
is also criticized simultane-ously
both for being too critical
of contemporary society and for
being too supportive of existing
institutions and policies.
and the boys' in their attempt
to interject humor into the
event. They too were prepared
with relevant literature and
sought to propagate their
ideals through the sale of war
comics" (the Clarion, Febru-ary
22, 1968).
Father, their action was at least
open for all to see; but what about
my inaction? I have not bothered
to find out what is going on over
there. I have been too busy. 'Be-cause
the situation is complex and
controversial, I have found it safer
to make no decision.
Jesus you forgave those who
tried to interject a little humor
into your agony, and I must be-lieve
that you forgave the apathy
thy presence, and take not thy
Holy Spirit from us. Restore us
to the joy of salvation, and uphold
us with a willing Spirit." (51:10-12)
__Who should be our leader? Who
should be our teacher? Who is our
friend? Who does show us the way
through His Word?
To you, Dr. Collins, we would
express our heart-felt gratitude for
the many hours you have given us
to help us understand ourselves
and in understanding others. Thank
you also, for just "being a friend"
to the students of Bethel College.
God bless you, and keep you as
you go forth in service for Him.

Leonard Speaks
To the Editor:
Too often I get the feeling that
the various elements of the col-lege
community tend to become
so absorbed in themselves a n d
their own functions that the actual
functions of the community are
either neglected or overlooked. The
educational purpose of Bethel Col-lege
should be "to help each per-son
to realize his unique and sa-cred
potentialities and to make his
own best contribution to society."
As a means to this end the col-lege
ideally "attempts to provide
an intellectual, social, and spiri-tual
community in which indivi-duals
can grow and learn in a va-riety
of situations, are encouraged
to assume responsibility intelli-gently
and may develop a discri-minating
awareness of and con-cern
for Christian motives." (Beth-el

Amendment Unfair
To the Editor:
An organization which fails to
take seriously its own established
by-laws has itself lost the right
to be taken seriously. The Student
Senate at Bethel, on the basis of
voting activity last week, seems to
have developed such a weakness
and is in real danger of losing
credence and respectability with
its constituents.
The specific activity to which I
refer is the referendum vote of
last Friday regarding an amend-ment
to the Constitution. As spe-cified
in the Constitution, this
amendment, as any other, should
have been posted in a public spot
at least one week before the day
of voting to alert and prepare vo-ters.
As it was not posted even
one day prior to the vote, passage
of the amendment was secured
with scarcely one-hundred persons
Another aspect of the voting is
under question: no official expla-nation
was offered on either the
ballot or the posting as to the
exact nature of the change so that
one was required to ask the ballet-box
personnel, "Does this mean
. . . ?" In fairness to the voters,
such explanations must be made.
My own displeasure at the pass-age
of this amendment points to
my own bias; nevertheless, the
very arbitrary methods employed
by the Senate in this instance are
not to be discounted. Therefore, I
appeal to the student association
to 'reopen the referendum and sub-mit
it once again to the student
population in the manner pre-scribed
in its Constitution. If such
action is not taken, I shall be
forced to conclude that it is a self-defeating
and farcical organization.
Linda C. Olson
Each of us is held accountable for
our actions by a Larger Entity.
The goal of an educationally-minded,
intellectual, social a n d
spiritual community is severely
put out of reach whenever an ad-ministrator
sees student dissent as
a demonstration of immaturity,
without considering whether it is.
The goal is put further back when-ever
a student organization feels it
necessary to almost go to war to
get a calendar date, permission
to hold a meeting, bring in a per-former,
The goal is put back whenever
an administrator feels it necessary
to condemn students for personal
traits or habits which are not par-ticularly
unChristian in nature, or
whenever concern for the public
image takes precedence over the
goal of an "intellectual, social, and
spiritual community."
Somehow I receive the feeling
that often the Student Senate op-erates
for the Student Senate, the
Student Services Office operates
for the Student Services Office,
the Business offices for the Busi-ness
offices, the library for the
library, the bookstore for the book-store,
All of these should be operating
for the total community, but this
does not seem to be the case. This
is, I believe, unhealthy to an aca-demic
community, although I, like
everyone else, am partly to blame.
However, I will suggest more
tolerance and love can be exer-cised
by all parts of the communi-ty,
and I will assert that there is
no one in this community who is
immune to the need of prayer re-garding
this problem.

Hinnerman Brings Messages
In Deeper Life Week Slate
A Bethel professor and six so-cial
science majors journeyed to
Washington, D. C. during the ini-tial
week of second semester to
participate in the Washington Se-minar
on Federal Service spon-sored
by the National Association
of Evangelicals.
This Seminar is designed for
students from Bible and liberal
arts colleges that maintain a pro-gram
of higher education with an
evangelical Christian emphasis.
More than 15 colleges are involved
in the program. This is the fourth
year Bethel has participated.
Dwight Jessup, professor of po-litical
science, coordinated this
year's trip to Washington, D. C.

Deeper Life Week will be held
at Bethel College March 11-15.
These days will be a time when
students, under the leadership of
one man, can renew their spiritual
lives and be drawn into a closer
relationship with Jesus Christ. The
main goal of Deeper Life Week
is to show students how to have
a deeper life in Christ and to be
controlled by Him in every part
of their lives.
The speaker for this week will
be Rev. C. Philip Hinnerman, who
is now the minister of Park Ave-nue
Church in Minneapolis. He has
served in this church since 1952.

president's dining room and 6:15
p.m. for the meeting.
Mr. Steincamp worked in Viet-nam
for five years. He spent the
first half of his term in DaNang
working in evangelism with the

Bergeson, Johnson Anticipate
Approaching Summer SPAN Projects
by Kathy Johnson
Two Bethel students, Jane Ber-geson
and Paul Johnson, will par-ticipate
this summer in the Stu.
dent Project for Amity among Na-.
tons sponsored by the University
of Minnesota. Jane will spend her
summer in Sweden while Paul will
spend his in Austtalia.
SPAN aims to encourage friend-ship
and understanding among na-tions
while providing its students
with wide opportunities for inde-pendent
study. A SPANner spends
a year in preliminary study of the
country in which he will study. He
also prepares himself for a study
project that he will pursue over
the summer.
The SPANner spends eight
weeks of the summer in research
for his project and also has a
limited opportunity to visit sur-rounding
countries. After the
SPANner returns to Minnesota,
he prepares a project report on
his summer's research.
Dr. James Johnson, SPAN ad-visor,
expressed disappointment
that no Bethel students applied
this year for the summer of 1969.
He feels that SPAN can provide
an exciting Christian experience.
The student will find many oppor-tunities

and to study Swedish culture,

fears as all the shots he will
have to get and facing a strange

summer in Sydney and will do

The Australian team had an op-portunity
to spend a weekend at
Camp Courage earlier this year.
At this time they found themselves
able to become better acquainted
and to become a close-knit group.

about important areas of Austral-ian

as travel.

Women Cagers
Drop Two of Fin
by Faith Zwemke
In their last three contests the
Bethel women cagers lost two and
won one. They suffered losses
against the U of Minnesota and
Pillsbury; their victory was at the
expense of Fairview.
What began as a lopsided game
in favor of Bethel resulted in
a heartbreaking defeat as the U
nipped Bethel 31-29. At the half
Bethel had a solid lead 24-11.
However, the third quarter
brought some surprises.
Bethel's offense couldn't seem to
hit the mark and they scored a
meager 2 points. Meanwhile, the
U crashed in on Bethel's slump and
doubled their total making the
score 26-22. The fourth quarter

didn't improve for Bethel as they
sank 3 points and committed nu-merous
mechanical errors.
The bulk of the scoring was
done by Barb Lindman as she
totaled 22 points. She was fol-lowed
by Marilyn Edgar with 5.
Although Bethel had the incen-tive
to defeat Pillsbury due to
their previous loss to them, the
Bethel cagers couldn't overcome
an early lead and lost 43-37. Once
again the third quarter was deci-sive
in the defeat as cold shooting

Pillsbury also won out at the
free-throw line as they put in
11 of 19 while Bethel scored
only 7 of 20. Barb Lindman was
top scorer with 25 points fol-lowed
by Sandy Spurgeon with 5
and Lynnette Port with 4.
Despite the fact that Bethel suf-fered
their second loss to Pillsbury,
the team felt they improved their
game considerably. Initially they
were defeated by 14 points, 44-30.
However, in their most recent
game they showed a stronger de-fense
and were downed by only
6 points.
Bethel had met Fairview earli-er
in the season and once again
won by a large margin. Bethel
shot off to an early lead and
maintained it with little diffi-culty.
The final tally read 49-22.
For the first time this year,
three Bethel basketballers scored
in double figures. Barb Lindman
led the attack with 21, and Marilyn
Edgar and Karla Ask contributed
16 and 10 points respectively.

During the 1967-68 season, the
Royal wrestlers compiled a com-mendable
8-10 record as compared
with 2-16 last year. The squad
came out on top in total team
points, however, with 276 against
237. This indicates the many pins
made by the Royals, notably Dave
Anderson, and also the closeness of
several losses.
Two wrestlers who had out-standing
individual records this
season were Bob Olson, 15-1-2, and
Greg Ekbom, 15-2-1. Three others
with very good win-loss records
were Barry Anderson, Dave An-derson
and Kurt Dokken. The
three team point leaders were Bob
Olson, who piled up 63, Greg Ek-bom
with 52 and Dave Anderson
with 42.
At the wrestling banquet,
which was held yesterday eve-ning,
Barry Anderson and Bob
Olson were named co-captains
for the 1968-69 season. Bob Ol-son
was also named the most val-uable
squad member.
Coach Doug King expects to see
most of the members back next
year and also hopes to have some
new recruits. A need for more
depth in the lighter weights was
expressed as it provide more bal-ance
to the squad.
Comparatively, the squad was
young as all but two are either
sophomores or freshmen. This
was not detrimental so the ba-sic
skills learned in high school
experience are generally suffi-cient
enough for college wrest-ling.
It does mean, however, that next
season there should be an equally
strong, it not stronger, squad. Con-sidering
the way in which the Roy-als
wrestled this season, the 1968-
69 season should see even better

Despite a disappointing 7-17 basketball season, little dis-appointment
could be seen in the play of Ron Pederson. Ron,
a 6'6" junior from Willmar, Minnesota, continued to play his
fine offensive, defensive, and rebounding game throughout the
year. In fact, Ron played so well that he broke 6 of Bethel's
roundball records.
Even before the season began, Pederson held all three
possible rebounding records: 1) 30 rebounds in one game, 2)
331 rebounds in a single season, and 3) 643 career rebounds.
He broke the last two again this year, pulling down 379 re-bounds
and jumping his career total to 1022.
The other records Ron broke this season are as follows:
1) Individual season scoring-604 points
2) Individual season field goals-245
3) Career points-1421
4) Career field goals-575
There are at least three more records that Ron has a
chance to break next year in addition to extending his career
totals. These are total points in one game (his 43 now stands
second to Don Moore's 46), total field goals in one game (his
17 ties him for third with Dave Bjorklund behind Dan Wester-lund's
20 and Moore's 19), and career free throws, where he
needs just 88 to break Truman Turnquist's total of 358.

[Note to my regular readers… starting today, I am beginning my migration to my new blog site:
will get you there. You'll find most of the post here, but you'll need to finish it at the new site — so — why not link to it right now? Oh — and don't forget to change your feed address. New posts will no longer be found here after February 1, 2008]
So hubby and I are excited about this tax rebate thing… looks like we fit in that middle class group that will get $1200 back from the federal government.
We reflected on the rebate for a few moments, and the thoughts by legislators and the president alike — why they voted "yes." I share their thoughts with you:
- The economy is a mess. We need to make people spend more money to improve it.
- If we GIVE them money, they will have more to spend.
- We want voters to re-elect us in November , and if we give them money, they will like us and vote for us.
So here's little old me, wondering the following:
- Mr. President and Ms/Mr Legislator — excuse me — but wasn't that my money to begin with? I sent you a WHOLE lot more than that last year, and I'll be sending you a WHOLE lot more this year. I don't believe you are "giving" me anything!
- And one other question — where did all this extra money come from that you have to give back to me? All I hear about is the escalating costs of the war in Iraq and the hole that has put in the federal budget. So who exactly are you taking money away from so you can give it back to me?
Those thought processes would be enough to share in today's post….but…. why stop now?
I got to thinking that health insurers should begin to take a page from the federal government's book…

CDO Development Guidelines
Coding Guidlines
This page is not yet finished. Do not take these guidelines for granted until the note is removed!
Basic Coding Guidelines
The following Guide describes the basic requirements for creating CDO source code. Not all of these guidlines can be coverred by the auto-format for Java source Code (Strg+Shift+F). If you like to write an extension that allows comfortably adjusting the code regarding these Guidelines you are welcome.
Getter and Setter
Guideline for writing test cases
General Requirements
Ecore models
- If you write ecore models, make sure that your model's name matches the last segment of the plug-in name (e.g. org.eclipse.emf.cdo.dawn.examples.acore -->acore.ecore) - make sure that the gemodels default base packages matches the plugin name (without the last segment)
Legacy Mode
In the CDO test suite the Legacy Mode is always activated. This means that you do not need set this mode for every test case. But this also means that you need to deactivate it if you want to execute tests without legacy.
Please always use CDOUtil.getCDOObject() and CDOUtil.getEObject() to get either the CDOObject or the expected internal instance, no matter whether you are using legacy or not. This will make the test compatible to all legacy test cases and avoids ugly ClassCastExceptions.
When using dynamic EObjects please do not use CDOUtil.prepareDynamicEPackage(dynamicMapEPackage) if you want to make this test legacy aware. Otherwise the package will be native even if the Legacy test suite is executed. Please use somtehing like the following statement to make sure that you have prepared dynamic legacy objects.
if(!CDOUtil.isLegacyModeDefault()) { CDOUtil.prepareDynamicEPackage(dynamicMapEPackage); }

Annie Crist says she dreads telling her two daughters that cuts in food-stamp benefits taking effect Friday means less chicken and fewer hamburgers for dinner.
And with deeper cuts looming as part of a possible U.S. budget deal, Crist and other recipients may feel an even greater pinch — along with retailers such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Target Corp. and Kroger Co.
"I don't bother them or worry them with adult issues or adult problems," Crist, a 30-year-old self-employed babysitter in Lancaster, Ohio, southeast of Columbus, said. "But if they ask me, 'Well, why can't we get this? We always get this,' how am I going to explain that?"
Food-stamp spending reached a record $78.4 billion in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, due in part to a temporary boost in benefits passed as part of the 2009 economic stimulus that expires Friday. Lawmakers battling over U.S. farm and budget policy are looking to cut deeper by tightening eligibility rules that could drop as many as 3 million people from the program.
With an estimated 8 percent of shoppers using food stamps, the impact will probably be felt most acutely by discount retailers such as Dollar General Corp., Family Dollar Stores Inc. and Wal-Mart, said Bryan Gildenberg, chief knowledge officer of Kantar Retail.
"You'll find the effects will happen quite quickly," Gildenberg said. "These are shoppers that have probably already allocated their spending down to the dollar."
Few extras
Crist said her budget leaves little room for extras. The $547 a month she received in food benefits for herself and her daughters, ages 13 and 8, will become $497 Friday, as a roughly 5-percent benefit cut takes effect nationwide. With utilities and other expenses, she said she will be spending less on fresh meats, fruits and vegetables at the grocery store.
Grocers say they're watching the situation closely. "We're a little concerned about the food-stamp cut, I can tell you that," Dennis Eidson, president and CEO of Spartan Stores Inc., a Grand Rapids, Mich.-based grocer, said on a conference call Oct. 24. "That could be a meaningful event for us."
Kroger, the biggest U.S. grocery chain, said it doesn't expect the food-stamp drop to affect its sales. "Customers may shift to spending more of their cash on food and less cash on other things," Keith Dailey, a spokesman for the Cincinnati-based company, said in an e-mail.
SNAP enrollment
Monthly enrollment for what's officially called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program peaked last December at 47.8 million. It was 47.6 million in July, according to the most-recent data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. That's up from 28.2 million five years ago, when the program's annual cost was $37.6 billion. Friday's reduction in aid is equal to the amount donated to churches, synagogues and private food banks, according to a study by Washington, D.C.-based anti-hunger advocate Bread for the World.
"All retailers who sell food are likely to feel the impact of cuts, since people receiving assistance often don't have excess income to make up the difference," said Jennifer Bartashus, senior analyst for food retailing for Bloomberg Industries.
Big-box retailers
Almost half of all food stamp redemptions are in big-box supercenters such as Wal-Mart or Target, while most of the rest are in supermarkets, she said. Of the total $72.9 billion in food stamps redeemed, $36.2 billion went to supercenters such as Wal-Mart and Target, and $25 billion to supermarkets, she said.
Stores with a higher portion of low-income customers will lose some revenue, though it could partially be offset by those trading down to discount-style stores, Bartashus said. The cuts could change shopping patterns for those on assistance toward store-brand items, which are generally cheaper than name-brand, she said.
Target spokeswoman Amy Joiner said in an email that "we are monitoring the situation but aren't going to discuss or speculate on impact to the business."
Asked for comment, a Wal-Mart spokesman referred to remarks made by CEO Bill Simon on Oct. 15. Simon told analysts that the Bentonville, Ark.-based company, which is the biggest U.S. food-seller and retailer, may see some benefits from the reduction.
"Price will become more important" as food-stamp recipients pay more nutrition costs out of pocket. "And when price is more important, we're more relevant," Simon said.
Detroit grocer
At Najib Atisha's two grocery stores in Detroit, about 50 percent of his customers in one location use food stamps and 70 percent in the other, said the owner.
"Many of our customers really don't have any source of income," Atisha, 55, said. If those customers can't buy, "we can't turn product over, it sits on the shelf longer, and then we have issues of quality control with our fresh foods."
Atisha employs 40 people between the two stores. He said that while he's watching government actions, he hasn't yet made any changes in response to his anticipated income loss.
The reduction in benefits will ripple through the economy, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said Friday.
"If you can buy more at the grocery store, you will buy more at the grocery store," Vilsack said in an interview on C-SPAN's "Newsmakers" program to air Nov. 3. "If you can buy more, that means the grocer has to stock more that's been purchased and processed and trucked to their facility. All of those are jobs in the supply chain. And it also means, obviously, producers -- farmers and ranchers and producers -- have to sell more and have a market to sell more. So it has an impact."
Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, said on Oct. 30 that food stamps are among the items Republicans are eying for additional cuts as part of a House-Senate conference panel working to reconcile differences between Republican and Democratic budget blueprints for fiscal 2014.
The Senate-passed budget for fiscal year 2014 is about $90 billion more than a House-passed version. Farm bills being debated in a separate committee trying to replace agricultural legislation that expired Sept. 30 are considering cuts ranging from $18 billion over 10 years in the Senate plan to $52 billion in the House.
House plan
Of those amounts, the Senate would take $3.9 billion from nutrition programs while the House would cut $39 billion, according to nonpartisan congressional estimates. The House plan would also require work or job training and let states drug-test recipients as a condition of eligibility.
Rep. Marlin Stutzman, an Indiana Republican, said earlier this week that lawmakers should support the House food-stamp proposal as well as a timeline that divorces it from its longtime ties to farm aid.
"The American people are tired of this type of out-of-control spending," he said in a prepared statement. The plan, he said, represents "dramatic reform."
Margaret Keith, a 73-year-old widow from Ashfield, Mass., said she relies on food stamps and Social Security. She said she doesn't know what's left to cut.
"I am really skimming through right now," she said.
For Crist, the challenge will be the simple squeeze on resources, and her desire to raise healthy daughters. "What worries me the most is just not being able to make it stretch," she said. "The money only goes so far."

The ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution is the only patented colloidal silver on the market. The reason for this is that it has been proven to be such an effective colloidal silver solution that it reaches far beyond any previous colloidal silver products. ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution was approved for patent by the United States Patent Agency. In recent tests conducted by Brigham Young University Microbiology Laboratory, the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution has been shown to have a greater affect on the immune system than other colloidal silver products.

What is SilverSol Technology?
American Biotech Labs' new SilverSol Technology® is unique in the world of silver products. What most people don't realize is that there are different forms of silver. The products we make at ABL are not colloidal or ionic silver. Colloidal silvers contain ionic silver particles and sometimes other ingredients like proteins, salts, or citrates in order to help keep the ionic particles suspended in the water longer. Our products utilize the patented SilverSol Technology® that still contains only silver and water, yet is very different structurally than a colloidal silver. The actual scientific term for our product is a silver sol. What we have is metallic silver particles that are actually part of the structure of the water, not just temporarily suspended in it like a colloidal silver. Unlike colloidal or ionic silver, SilverSol® particles are not metabolized by the body, meaning they are non-toxic and will not build up in your system. SilverSol® also has mulitple modes of action which are catalytic in nature, and will work the entire time they are in your system. Colloidal and ionic silver's are limited to one mode of action, and are quickly neutralized in the body, limiting their effectivity. These differences make SilverSol Technology® much more effective, stable, and safe than a colloidal or ionic silver product.
Proven to be More Effective
Tested to be Non-toxic
In order to insure not only the best colloidal silver product, but also a safe product the company hired NAMSA, an independent laboratory, to do a toxicology study on the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution. The test, an LD-50 test, was performed in accordance with the guidlines of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) Regulations, 16 CFR 1500.
In the test work, the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution was tested for toxicity at the equivalent of about 100 to 200 times the normal adult dosage (depending on weight) and was found to be compeletely non-toxic. The test work was the equivalent of an adult drinking 192 teaspoons, or about four full eight-ounce bottles of the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution at one time (the normal adult dosage is one or two teaspoons a day)
The ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution Has:
- A Patent with other patents pending
- Safety tests showing that the product is safe at 200 times of the normal dosage
- A colloidal silver solution resource book and user's manual available for only $4.65
Doctor Recommended
Dianne Farley-Jones MD is a family physician and homeopath. She has a practice that prides itself on its emphasis on wellness and preventative medicine. In support of the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution, Dr. Farley-Jones has stated:
"Having investigated and used various colloidal silver solutions for several years, I recognize the superiority of the ASAP solution, which is the only colloidal silver solution I recommend to my patients. We have used it for over a year with very good results. ASAP Solution is the only colloidal silver solution with independent research guaranteeing its safety and effectiveness, and our experience with its use in many conditions has been consistent with the research findings."
American Biotechlabs guarantees that each bottle of American Biotechlabs' ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution has been tested for content and purity at least twice before bottling.
Remember, American Biotechlabs and JHL Supply make no claims or promises as to health benefits of its dietary/health supplements. All research information is provided as a courtesy to customers. Consequences of dietary use of any colloidal silver product are the sole responsibility of the customer. The product is not intended for any use other than as a dietary supplement.
Leading The Way
The Management of American Biotech Labs has felt a great sense of responsibility to help people care for their families. Our colloidal silver products empower parents with a first line of defense that they can have and use at home, when and where the need arises, instead of always having to depend on someone else. We also seek to empower families with knowledge, so that they know what to do and how to do it. Freedom to choose safe and effective alternatives is a wonderful thing.
Another goal of American Biotech Labs is to not only produce the very best colloidal silver products on the market, but to also produce products that are affordable for both individuals and families. By selling its colloidal silver products at prices that families can actually afford, American Biotech Labs has been able to effect a price reduction across the entire market, to the benefit of all families, no matter which product or company they choose to use.
American Biotech Labs has also lead the way in testing their products. ABL Management sees this as the most important benefit we can bring to the market place. By creating volumes of independent documentation on our colloidal silver products, our competitors will be forced to do the same with their colloidal silver products, at least to some extent. In turn this will cause a very valuable market-wide expansion of knowledge, which American Biotech Labs management feels will be more beneficial to everyone. It will raise the credibility of the entire market sector, which has been very poor in the past. The time will soon come when consumers will demand real data, before they use a product.
American Biotech Labs is in the forefront of colloidal silver research, having completed over 50 major studies (seven independent studies) on their products and the technology behind them. American Biotech Labs has also led the way in product design and information.
American Biotech Labs saw a need for an extra-strength colloidal silver product that could be used on patients who are really sick and under a doctors care. American Biotech Labs created a product just for doctors to fill that need, and now other companies have followed suit. American Biotech Labs then saw a need to update people nationwide on the advances the company has been making in testing, etc., so almost two years ago the company created a news letter to make sure the knowledge was transferred to people who used the colloidal silver product. Recently our competitors have started doing the same thing. The Management of American Biotech Labs is hopeful that its competitors will now feel obligated to actually have their colloidal silver products tested by independent, professional, third-party laboratories before they sell them. If they will do so, we believe this expansion of research and knowledge will lead to the betterment of the entire market place..
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. There are so many colloidal silver products on the market today, how do I tell which ones are good and which ones are not?
Look and ask for real (independent) test data. This data should include such things as independent safety reports, efficacy reports, government approvals that prove the colloidal silver's efficacy, and endorsements from people of expertise that have no ownership in the Company, etc. No family should ever use a colloidal silver product unless it has at least been proven safe to use [look for in-vivo (living) tests that prove non-toxicity]. Just because some person says that a product is non-toxic or beneficial, does not mean that it is.
For example:
Safety Studies
American Biotech Labs has had seven independent safety studies completed on their colloidal silver products, including: in-vivo (living) studies at up to 200 times the normal adult dosage; injected and ingested studies at levels of up to 5000 milligrams per kilograms of body weight, using not only the regular 10 ppm supplement, but also independent studies using the ASAP-AGX-32 colloidal silver product. American Biotech Labs also has cellular studies showing that the product (even at extra-strength levels) is non toxic to human cells. All seven safety studies have shown that the American Biotech Labs colloidal silver products are completely non-toxic at the levels at which they are recommended for use.
Effectiveness Studies, Approvals And Testimony
American Biotech Labs currently has over 50 studies that have been completed on its colloidal silver products and its effect in laboratory settings. These studies include thousands of antimicrobial tests at numerous international, governmental, major university and also private laboratories. An antibiotic comparison study on ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution has been released in an international peer-reviewed paper. There have also been four different independent human studies completed, including one involving 124 patients from a number of hospitals and clinics in West Africa. Numerous other studies have been conducted on ABL products which have not yet been released (some are currently in peer review).
American Biotech Labs currently has three different EPA approvals for colloidal silver's use as a disinfectant, a homeopathic drug approval from the country of Ghana West Africa, and a number of other approvals that are currently pending. American Biotech Labs colloidal silver products were found to be so effective that one of the managing directors of the company was invited to testify before a U.S. Congressional Committee. Also submitted to the Committee were numerous pages of data, which is included in the appendix of the congressional testimony. Also included in the appendices were personal reports on colloidal silver's use from a number of independent people, including a renowned cancer doctor, one of the top material scientists in the world, a three-star military general (he served as Surgeon General of the U.S. Air force, now retired and working with Homeland Security), and also one of the highest-ranking U.S. Senators. Credibility on this level has to be earned over extended periods of time.
Q. What do I watch out for? Some companies always tout particle size. What does particle size have to do with it all?
A company with little real scientific standing will try to confuse potential clients with useless data that is very general in nature, and that in reality has nothing to do with the use of their colloidal silver products. Often this data sounds quite impressive. But this data is many times just copied or quoted from some doctor or scientist who did work on old colloidal silver products in the early or middle 1900's. Big red flags should go up if a company just touts particle size and/or whether or not the product is colloidal or ionic. The argument of particle size is just a useless theory that states that smaller is somehow better. Focusing on particle size is just a smokescreen for the fact that these companies have no real or reliable data to talk about. Those companies who have real data, talk about it. Those who do not, often just argue about particle size. Unless you can back it with real data, particle size means nothing.
The real question is not which colloidal silver product has the smallest particle size, but rather which company has been able to engineer their particle size to be optimal (the most effective or broad spectrum) while keeping in mind that the amount of colloidal silver used has to be low enough to be safe for everyday family consumption. It is true that if a particle is too large it is of little use. It is also true that if a particle is too small it becomes ionic and much less useful, because ionic silver can be influenced or bound up by too many other chemical relationships in the body.
The fact remains that particle size is only important if the colloidal silver product actually works, and the only way to know if a product actually works is to have reliable, independent test data that proves it. Any good company which has reliable, independent test data should be able to show it to you upon request. The test data should include test time periods (how long it took to work), how much was used in the test (the quantity used to get the results) and how strong the colloidal silver content was (what ppm levels were used). It is also important to look for the name of the independent lab that did the work. Very few companies have any test data at all, not even in-vivo (living) safety data. The little information that is available from these companies and given out or shown to potential clients, is many times completed by their own in-house laboratories where they can make up any data they want. Good test work will have the name of a quality or reputable lab associated with it. Look for a signed copy.
Q. A number of companies have come out with some sort of claim that their colloidal silver is better than yours. Why don't you come out with comparison studies showing that your colloidal silver is actually better?
There are many parts to this answer. The first part is that we believe that these comparisons are just more smoke and mirrors put out by low-budget companies because they have no real data of their own. Because we have volumes of independent data, they think that if they can just claim that their product is better or more effective than ours, it gives them credibility of some sort.
We have looked at a number of sites on the internet and we found them to be highly inaccurate. One even had supposed pictures of how our colloidal sivler products stacked up against theirs. The pictures had no data, no test times, unknown colloidal silver concentrations, and no indication that the work was completed at an independent lab. It was obvious that it had been created by their own in-house laboratory in the back room, where they can skew the data any way they choose.
Another site that claimed to be an independent one had comparisons of many different products, and stated that our product was actually not metallic but something like 80% ionic. With a little more investigation we found that the site was not an independent one as it purported to be, but rather a misleading site to promote its company's own product. American Biotech Labs has data from the number-one materials research institute in the world on our engineered colloidal silver nano-particle product. We have an extensive understanding of information about our colloidal silver products and have filed hundreds of pages of patents to cover them so that they cannot be duplicated by anyone else. We believe that small-time companies will continue to take shots at American Biotech Labs because when your product stands out alone at the top of the heap, there will always be wishful people taking shots at you in an attempt to try and make themselves look better.
The second part of the answer is that there are thousands of colloidal silver products out there and more trying to get into the market every day. We could waste our time trying to identify them all and then prove that we are better than each and every one of them, but why do this? It seems to us that our time and money is better spent working on solving problems, finding new answers, and creating new colloidal silver products with our technology so that we can end more human suffering. Because we have human case studies that have been completed using our colloidal silver products, we know about how much of our product is needed, to be used at what time intervals, in order to boost the human immune system to solve certain problems. We will continue to work with international labs, joint venture partners, and government groups, etc. to increase that knowledge so that we can help more people worldwide.
Q. What is ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution?
ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution consists of tiny (about 10 nanometers long) particles of pure elemental silver suspended in pure water. It is available in concentrations of 10 parts of silver for every million parts of water or 22 parts of silver for every million parts of water.
Q. Is ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution safe?
When taken in the doses specified, ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution is safe for humans when taken internally or applied to the skin or eyes. Unlike some other colloidal silver products, this product is not thought to be a risk for permanent graying of the skin. This is a condition known as argyria and can be caused when large amounts of silver are absorbed into the skin tissue.
Q. Are there people who should not take this colloidal silver?
We do not know of any. Because this colloidal silver has not yet gone through all the rigorous tests of the FDA, we cannot be 100% positive at this time. Many people have, however, taken large amounts of colloidal silver for years with no side effects. Finally, it appears that colloidal silver quickly becomes widely dispersed throughout the body and does not concentrate in any particular organ that it might damage.
Q. What is the proper dosage of ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution?
It is recommended that one take at least 1 teaspoon, up to three times daily for adults and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon once daily for children. This product should not be taken in place of an antibiotic recommended by your healthcare provider.
Q. Is all colloidal silver the same?
No, two colloidal silver solutions with the same concentration might produce very different effects. ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution has been shown, in recent tests conducted by Brigham Young University Microbiology Laboratory, to have a greater affect on the immune system than other colloidal silver products.
Q. Does ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution harm the helpful bacteria in our intestines?
Individuals who have taken the ASAP Colloidal Silver Solution for an extended period of time report no negative gastro-intestinal side effects. This may be because most of the colloidal silver solution is processed by the kidneys and does not even enter the large intestine. If the small amount of colloidal silver solution that enters into the large intestine were to kill some of the helpful bacteria, the density of bacteria is so great in the large intestine that they quickly multiply to regain their normal level.

Great product
- I have used the liquid and gel for 1 yr now. I cut my finger last year and it was anger red even though the bleeding had stopped. I used the gel on the cut and within 1 hr the redness was gone. Awesome.
Colloidal Silver
- I have used both the liquid and the gel and this stuff is great! I had a rash that would not clear with antibiotics, but the Colloidal Silver cleared it up in about 3 days.<br>Love it, don\'t want to be without it!
- I tried ASAP for the first time when I had an ear infection. Having 2 kids, I wanted to try it on myself first. I wet a q-tip with the silver and then in hydrogen peroxide. I put it into my ear enough to press against the flap to have some of the liquid drain into my ear. The ear ache was gone in 1/2 an hour. Did the same with my daughter with the same results.<br>also recently tried it with a cough after the flu and it almost completely took my cough away!
